:00:08. > :00:09.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin

:00:10. > :00:12.Theresa May prepares to face criticism of her election campaign

:00:13. > :00:27.and leadership style in a meeting with her own backbenchers.

:00:28. > :00:37.Today, the Prime Minister need to explain to the MPs why the election

:00:38. > :00:45.result was a disaster. We will be asking experts about the future of

:00:46. > :00:58.We also have our very own Larry the cat.

:00:59. > :01:01.Good morning, it's Monday the 12th of June.

:01:02. > :01:13.Also, Steph is finding out what businesses think of the election

:01:14. > :01:17.results. New research suggests that confidence has fallen because of the

:01:18. > :01:21.political uncertainty following the election and concerns about Brexit

:01:22. > :01:22.talks. I will be talking about it with business leaders.

:01:23. > :01:25.Just weeks after he was elected President of France,

:01:26. > :01:28.Emmanuel Macron is on course to secure another stunning victory,

:01:29. > :01:29.this time in the country's parliamentary elections.

:01:30. > :01:35.They take a point in Serbia but yet another draw in World Cup qualifying

:01:36. > :01:38.only just keeps alive their slim hopes of qualifying for next year's

:01:39. > :01:49.Cheese that grows on plants and fish fingers made from chicken,

:01:50. > :01:52.we'll find out where some children think their food comes from.

:01:53. > :02:02.A breezy day ahead. Particularly windy across Scotland and north-east

:02:03. > :02:06.England. We have showers, many will fade and many of us will have a dry

:02:07. > :02:07.day. I will have more details in about 15 minutes.

:02:08. > :02:12.Theresa May will today meet backbench Conservative MPs and set

:02:13. > :02:14.out her case for staying on in Downing Street.

:02:15. > :02:16.The Prime Minister will also chair a meeting

:02:17. > :02:21.Michael Gove - one of the driving forces behind Brexit -

:02:22. > :02:25.Mrs May is also still trying to secure a deal

:02:26. > :02:27.with the Democratic Unionists to ensure they'll back

:02:28. > :02:38.Our political correspondent Tom Bateman reports.

:02:39. > :02:46.Back at the heart of government, Michael Gove's last regular

:02:47. > :02:51.appearances on this street were before to May became PM. She sat to

:02:52. > :02:58.old opponent after the bruising EU referendum campaign. He will now sit

:02:59. > :03:02.alongside Boris Johnson. The two men spectacularly fell out over the Tory

:03:03. > :03:06.leadership contest last year. The Foreign Secretary has denied having

:03:07. > :03:13.his eye on the top job again, calling for MPs to rally around Mrs

:03:14. > :03:19.May. Jeremy Corbyn did not win this election. It is absolutely right

:03:20. > :03:22.that she should go at head, form a government and deliver on the

:03:23. > :03:25.priorities of the people. I'm going to be backing her, absolutely

:03:26. > :03:31.everybody I'm going to be talking to is backing her as well. Mrs May's

:03:32. > :03:35.reshuffle sees Damian Green, an old friend of the Prime Minister, become

:03:36. > :03:39.first Secretary of straight. Effectively Mrs May's number two.

:03:40. > :03:43.The former secretary Liz truss has been demoted, taking a lower ranking

:03:44. > :03:48.job in the Treasury. Other key figures as they when Iraq -- they

:03:49. > :03:52.are, including Jeremy Hunt and Liam Fox. Mrs May will hope the

:03:53. > :03:57.reshuffle, most notable for its lack of changes, will help every gel to

:03:58. > :04:01.Tory MP. She said last night she intends to stay in her job. I said

:04:02. > :04:06.during the election campaign that if re-elected, I would intend to serve

:04:07. > :04:09.a full-time. What I am doing now is actually getting on with the

:04:10. > :04:13.immediate job. -- actually. I think that is what the public would

:04:14. > :04:32.expect. They want to see government providing that certainty and

:04:33. > :04:35.stability. But life without a majority the House of Commons will

:04:36. > :04:39.be very different. The PM may have to wait goodbye to some of her

:04:40. > :04:42.policy plans. Today, she will meet with her own backbenchers, many of

:04:43. > :04:45.whom will be looking for reassurances. She now faces the

:04:46. > :04:46.challenge of starting Brexit talks with her authority weekend and her

:04:47. > :04:47.long-term future still in doubt. In a moment we'll speak

:04:48. > :04:50.to our Ireland correspondent Chris Page in Belfast,

:04:51. > :04:53.but first Chris Mason is in Downing Chris, it's been a tough few days

:04:54. > :04:56.for the Prime Minister, and potentially more

:04:57. > :05:02.trouble ahead today? And huge day this morning for the

:05:03. > :05:05.Prime Minister. This is the last thing she would have imagined just a

:05:06. > :05:08.week ago. The whole point of this election campaign was to turbocharge

:05:09. > :05:11.her authority, to cement her position as the dominating political

:05:12. > :05:16.figure of the coming years. Instead, as opposed to being turbocharged,

:05:17. > :05:21.the result has wheel clamped, really, her future. She is a stark

:05:22. > :05:26.and really struggling to impose her authority on her party. Publicly, we

:05:27. > :05:31.are seeing senior figures are saying they want to support and backup but

:05:32. > :05:35.along stampedes -- amongst MPs, particularly those who lost their

:05:36. > :05:38.seats, there is a visceral anger. A real disappointment. This was a

:05:39. > :05:42.voluntary decision to go to the electorate and has turned out to be

:05:43. > :05:45.a complete disaster. Plenty will hope she will be humble in front of

:05:46. > :05:50.backbench MPs meeting this afternoon at around five o'clock. The other

:05:51. > :05:54.big question, I couldn't resist bringing this out this morning, it

:05:55. > :05:59.is this document. It is meant to be the sacred text of government for

:06:00. > :06:02.the next five years with the Conservatives winning big, that was

:06:03. > :06:06.her aim. Instead, she will have to decide with the conversations with

:06:07. > :06:07.the DUP, how much of it gets ripped up. Fascinating times.

:06:08. > :06:11.Chris, there was confusion at the weekend about whether there

:06:12. > :06:14.is actually a deal in place with the DUP.

:06:15. > :06:27.Well, the talking will continue but I think there is little doubt that a

:06:28. > :06:31.deal will be done. The question is what shape that you will take. In

:06:32. > :06:34.terms of what the DUP are pushing for, according to sources in the

:06:35. > :06:38.party, they are keen for more investment and more money for the

:06:39. > :06:42.economy in Northern Ireland and want a stronger voice on Brexit as well

:06:43. > :06:46.as issues specific to this part of the UK. They want to talk about part

:06:47. > :06:50.of the whole of the UK for example patterns and they want at the Winter

:06:51. > :06:58.fuel allowance for older people to be protected. -- pensions. What is

:06:59. > :07:01.less certain is to whether there will be an agreement to restore

:07:02. > :07:06.power sharing here in Northern Ireland. Talks will begin egg and

:07:07. > :07:10.this morning after there was a pause during the general election

:07:11. > :07:14.campaign. -- to begin this morning again. Sinn Fein increased their

:07:15. > :07:18.strength in the general election as well and they have strongly

:07:19. > :07:21.criticised the deal between the DUP and the Conservative Party and say

:07:22. > :07:25.it shows the British government cannot act as an independent,

:07:26. > :07:31.impartial Paparone, if you like, in a talks process. That impartiality

:07:32. > :07:36.is in the Good Friday agreement which is the foundation stone of the

:07:37. > :07:42.power-sharing settlement here. There has been concern expressed that

:07:43. > :07:45.nothing should happen to put the Good Friday agreement at risk. They

:07:46. > :07:49.will be back to the talks table at Dell fast today. Thank you very much

:07:50. > :07:55.for that, Chris. -- Belfast. Later we'll be hearing from a former

:07:56. > :07:58.DUP Northern Ireland Assembly member about what they'd be expecting

:07:59. > :08:00.from a potential deal. Nicola Sturgeon will call

:08:01. > :08:03.for a cross-party "four nation" approach to the Brexit negotiations

:08:04. > :08:07.as she joins Scottish National Party The First Minister of

:08:08. > :08:09.Scotland wants membership of the European single market

:08:10. > :08:13.and the customs union to be "at the heart" of any agreement,

:08:14. > :08:16.with the rights of EU nationals living in the UK guaranteed

:08:17. > :08:18.with immediate effect. The SNP won 35 seats in last

:08:19. > :08:21.week's general election, Detectives investigating

:08:22. > :08:31.the London Bridge attack have made A 19-year-old man was detained

:08:32. > :08:35.in Barking on suspicion of terrorism offences shortly before

:08:36. > :08:38.ten o'clock last night. Exit polls following the first

:08:39. > :08:47.round of France's parliamentary election suggest President Macron's

:08:48. > :08:49.new centrist party is on course Projections show La

:08:50. > :08:52.Republique en Marche and its MoDem ally look set to win

:08:53. > :08:56.up to 445 of the 577 seats The final outcome will be decided

:08:57. > :09:14.in a run-off next Sunday. It is amazing when you consider they

:09:15. > :09:16.are only one-year-old. Both the White House

:09:17. > :09:19.and Downing Street have dismissed a report that Donald Trump wants

:09:20. > :09:22.to delay his proposed state visit to the UK, until he has the support

:09:23. > :09:26.of the British public. An online petition was signed

:09:27. > :09:28.by nearly two million people who wanted to block

:09:29. > :09:30.the American President's The opposition was inflamed

:09:31. > :09:34.by Mr Trump's criticism of London mayor Sadiq Khan's response

:09:35. > :09:38.to the London Bridge terror attack. Many children are confused

:09:39. > :09:40.about where their food comes In a survey of more than 5,000

:09:41. > :09:45.children between the ages of five and 16 some thought

:09:46. > :09:47.cheese comes from plants, tomatoes grow underground and nearly

:09:48. > :10:08.a fifth of the very youngest thought The healthy eating week threw up

:10:09. > :10:12.some surprising results. Around a quarter of all children thought

:10:13. > :10:17.strawberry jam could be included as one of their five-day portions of

:10:18. > :10:20.fruit and vegetables to a lot of people thought that fruit pastilles

:10:21. > :10:23.would count. There was a bit of confusion about where food came

:10:24. > :10:34.from. Something reflected in their responses of these youngsters. Do

:10:35. > :10:41.you know what fish fingers are made from? Chicken. Blair fish. Dead

:10:42. > :10:52.fish. Fish and breadcrumbs. Tomatoes, where do you get those?

:10:53. > :11:00.The shop. Trees. The ground. S tomato plants. Dew nowhere cheese

:11:01. > :11:10.comes from? No idea. -- do you know. No. Not sure. It's made out of milk.

:11:11. > :11:13.Just under a quarter of a 5-7 year old in the survey thought that

:11:14. > :11:17.prawns were plant and one fifth thought that chips were made from

:11:18. > :11:20.animals. The managing director of the British nutrition foundation

:11:21. > :11:24.said that schools and families should and could work together to

:11:25. > :11:25.educate children about making healthier choices. Andy Moore, BBC

:11:26. > :11:37.News. I'm not sure which is my favourite

:11:38. > :11:40.thing. A tree that grows cheese or a prawn plant.

:11:41. > :11:51.I loved it when they said where the fish fingers come from and she said,

:11:52. > :11:57.the. Clever, clever child. Cast your mind back one year ago. We were

:11:58. > :12:02.dreaming around this time of Welsh glory, won't we? Yes. Remember, it

:12:03. > :12:04.was hugely positive, really exciting, we were hanging all of our

:12:05. > :12:17.hopes on them. They still have major challenge on

:12:18. > :12:21.their hands. There was a shot from the penalty shot but the group

:12:22. > :12:28.leaders equalised leaving aside four points behind with four games to

:12:29. > :12:35.play. For the first time since 1966, and England football team has won a

:12:36. > :12:44.World Cup. Everton forward scored the only goal of the game.

:12:45. > :12:46.Everton forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored the only goal

:12:47. > :12:49.of the game as the Under 20's beat Venezuela 1-0 in South Korea

:12:50. > :12:53.Lewis Hamilton dominated the Canadian Grand Prix,

:12:54. > :12:56.leading from start to finish in Montreal to cut Sebastian Vettel's

:12:57. > :13:02.And in Paris, Rafael Nadal won a record tenth French Open title.

:13:03. > :13:09.The King of Clay made light work of Stan Wawrinka in the final.

:13:10. > :13:17.What you do to celebrate? You throw yourself on the clay. That's what he

:13:18. > :13:23.has done every year. Ten! Ten! It's ludicrous. He is coming to Queens in

:13:24. > :13:26.a couple of weeks, yeah. Andy Murray is obviously number one at the

:13:27. > :13:29.moment that he won Queens and Wimbledon so he needs to pick up

:13:30. > :13:33.those ranking points because guess who could be number one now, it

:13:34. > :13:39.could be Batman there. Incredible to think that he has come from a wrist

:13:40. > :13:40.injury -- that man. He thought his career was over, not so much.

:13:41. > :13:45.Here's Carol with a look at this morning's weather.

:13:46. > :13:52.The weather is quite changeable this week. What we have is some rain and

:13:53. > :13:56.we have showers around this morning. It will be breezy at times.

:13:57. > :14:00.Temperatures could hit high 20s in the south by the time we get to

:14:01. > :14:06.Wednesday. The other thing worth bearing in mind is pollen levels.

:14:07. > :14:11.They will be higher this week across much of the UK. If you have an

:14:12. > :14:16.allergy to grass pollen, buried in mind. A lot of showers are coming in

:14:17. > :14:22.on the breeze today -- bet that in mind. The wind will be strong today

:14:23. > :14:26.across parts of central and southern Scotland and north-east England,

:14:27. > :14:33.particularly the final across the corridor. They're that in mind if

:14:34. > :14:37.you are travelling. 40- 15 mph. You might find some restrictions on the

:14:38. > :14:43.Forth Road Bridge. We have showers today in northern England and also

:14:44. > :14:46.some sunshine. As we go into Wales, the West Midlands, again, showers

:14:47. > :14:51.are around but not all of us are seeing Duscher was. A bit of cloud

:14:52. > :14:55.as well. In Southern counties, East Anglia and the south-east, a similar

:14:56. > :14:59.scenario. Some bright spells but many of the date -- many of the

:15:00. > :15:04.showers will fade throughout the day and we will see some writer breaks

:15:05. > :15:08.develop in this cloud. It will be quite a breezy day, particularly in

:15:09. > :15:14.the north to the centre of the low pressure. Temperatures up to 19 or

:15:15. > :15:19.20 today. Not quite dizzying heights of 24 that East Anglia saw

:15:20. > :15:24.yesterday. A pleasant enough day. A lot of dry weather around. In the

:15:25. > :15:28.south south-west, some patches of fog forming. Becker cloud will

:15:29. > :15:31.introduce outbreaks of rain across Northern Ireland, south-west

:15:32. > :15:35.England, parts of Wales and also western parts of Scotland. That is

:15:36. > :15:39.courtesy of this weather front here. As we move further south, I pressure

:15:40. > :15:42.is becoming more established settings will be quieter and more

:15:43. > :15:48.settled. There goes that rain, moving towards the east throughout

:15:49. > :15:52.the day. A lot of cloud is associated with it but further

:15:53. > :15:57.south, we are into the sunshine and it will warm up tomorrow. We are

:15:58. > :16:03.looking at highs of the 23- 24 mark. Further north, we are still in the

:16:04. > :16:07.mid- high-teens. For Wednesday, Wednesday is looking at the warmest

:16:08. > :16:14.day for the week in the south. We could hit 27 or 28 in the sunshine.

:16:15. > :16:19.UV levels will be higher, up to eight in the index. Normally in the

:16:20. > :16:24.UK, the highest weekend is ninth Circuit that in mind. In the north,

:16:25. > :16:32.we have the weather front producing some rain. -- so bear that in mind.

:16:33. > :16:37.As we split up into Aberdeen. For Thursday, mixed fortunes. A lot of

:16:38. > :16:41.dry weather and sunshine and temperatures 17- 23. All we bit of

:16:42. > :16:45.everything going on in the weather this week.

:16:46. > :17:01.We shall look forward to that. It is with us to have a look at the papers

:17:02. > :17:05.today. It is nice to be back. Let's have a look at the front page of the

:17:06. > :17:11.Times this morning. We told you the story earlier on about trumpet

:17:12. > :17:15.visiting Britain. Their main story this morning is that may signal is a

:17:16. > :17:19.soft Brexit. We will be discussing that throughout the morning. Michael

:17:20. > :17:23.Gove returning to the front bench and more of a shuffle than a

:17:24. > :17:32.reshuffle, really. Not that many changes made and this picture here

:17:33. > :17:39.of an actress who spent the day judging a dog show. I can't reveal

:17:40. > :17:45.any spoilers from her show, I am yet to see it. The Daily Telegraph has a

:17:46. > :17:49.picture of Michael Gove is being called in to save Theresa May. We

:17:50. > :17:54.also have analysis on the programme about the deal or no deal with the D

:17:55. > :17:59.U P. The Irish Prime Minister warned Theresa May that he packed with the

:18:00. > :18:05.D U P could put the peace process in Northern Ireland at risk. Questions

:18:06. > :18:18.have been raised about the possibility of the government

:18:19. > :18:23.remaining unbiased. Another horror crash, Richard Hammond rolling down

:18:24. > :18:27.the hill on a car but eventually caught on fire. He came out with a

:18:28. > :18:33.fractured knee in the end. The main story is that labour is in a power

:18:34. > :18:37.bid. Jeremy Corbyn says he can Prime Minister in months, forming a

:18:38. > :18:42.minority government. Sale, what do you have? I know many people had a

:18:43. > :18:45.lot of fun of the last couple of days saying England have won the

:18:46. > :18:49.World Cup. It is just because as broadcasters we like to be able to

:18:50. > :18:55.save at least once in a generation. Talking about this image here. This

:18:56. > :18:58.is the England under 20 goalkeeper yesterday fool 's son of the former

:18:59. > :19:05.goalkeeping coach at Newcastle united and this boy here, this man,

:19:06. > :19:10.is Gareth Southgate's godson. How is that for footballing heritage? His

:19:11. > :19:17.good friends with Andy Woodman and was asked to be godfather to his son

:19:18. > :19:21.and now he is the hero, the penalty saving hero for the England under 20

:19:22. > :19:25.side. There was a great penalty save because he went the wrong way and

:19:26. > :19:32.still managed to get a powerful hand on it. That was lovely. Fantastic to

:19:33. > :19:40.see. But talking about legends, we mentioned him a moment ago. Rafael

:19:41. > :19:46.Nadal, last year he left Roland Garros in tears but here he is,

:19:47. > :19:51.triumphant yesterday fool 's dog an incredible ten time winner. The king

:19:52. > :20:00.of Paris they call him. He celebrated in his traditional style

:20:01. > :20:05.by rolling around in the clay. The front page of the Guardian talking

:20:06. > :20:09.about Theresa May pleadings of support as her future hangs in the

:20:10. > :20:14.balance. And this is how the front page of the mail has written it. A

:20:15. > :20:18.lovely piece inside one of the papers today, a great quote from

:20:19. > :20:25.Adam West, the Batman legend who died over the weekend. When Robin,

:20:26. > :20:31.in one episodes is to Batman, where did you get a live fish from, as he

:20:32. > :20:35.whips out a live fish. Adam, as Batman, says the true crime fighter

:20:36. > :20:41.always carries everything he needs in his utility belt. Even a live

:20:42. > :20:45.dish. 20 past six. Good morning to you.

:20:46. > :20:47.Theresa May will today meet Conservative MPs and set

:20:48. > :20:49.out her case for staying in Downing Street.

:20:50. > :20:51.Theresa May will meet her newly-formed cabinet later

:20:52. > :20:54.to discuss a deal that could see the Conservatives supported

:20:55. > :20:56.in parliament by the Democratic Unionist Party.

:20:57. > :21:00.As news spread of a possible deal on Friday, the DUP's website crashed

:21:01. > :21:02.as people tried to find out who the party are,

:21:03. > :21:06.It was founded by Ian Paisley back in 1971.

:21:07. > :21:08.It is pro-union, pro-Brexit and socially conservative.

:21:09. > :21:10.The DUP is the biggest party in Northern Ireland.

:21:11. > :21:14.It has ten MPs in Westminster, making it the fifth largest party.

:21:15. > :21:16.Some of its policies have come under scrutiny.

:21:17. > :21:18.It opposes same-sex marriage and is anti-abortion.

:21:19. > :21:21.But in return for supporting the government, it's expected

:21:22. > :21:24.the party will instead focus on extra cash for Northern Ireland,

:21:25. > :21:26.and likely oppose big austerity changes to pensions and benefits.

:21:27. > :21:34.Nelson McCausland is a former DUP member of the Northern Ireland

:21:35. > :21:49.So the first question, has a deal been done yet? I think the leader of

:21:50. > :21:54.the D U P has been clear that discussions are still ongoing. They

:21:55. > :21:58.will continue today and probably tomorrow as well. I think you picked

:21:59. > :22:05.up on some of the key points there. The party are generally anti-

:22:06. > :22:11.extreme as regards austerity. They are a compassionate party and so is

:22:12. > :22:17.to oppose the removal of the triple lock for pensions and to oppose, for

:22:18. > :22:22.example, the introduction of means testing for winter fuel payments. So

:22:23. > :22:27.it is generally pro- Brexit, strongly prounion party. And going

:22:28. > :22:32.into discussions are now they will be looking very much at the

:22:33. > :22:35.interests of the United Kingdom as a whole because of this particular

:22:36. > :22:38.time there is a real need for stability. They would want to ensure

:22:39. > :22:42.that there is as much stability of was able at Westminster. Picking up

:22:43. > :22:47.on some of the policies we discussed. We know, for example,

:22:48. > :22:52.views on same-sex marriage and is very much an anti-abortion party.

:22:53. > :23:00.Would they be proposing that those should be extended for Northern

:23:01. > :23:06.Ireland? The position of the D U P is to be pro- life and pro- family.

:23:07. > :23:09.The reality is that these are matters that are devolved to the

:23:10. > :23:13.north of Ireland assembly, they are not issues that would be dealt with

:23:14. > :23:17.at Westminster. Those things not even being discussed. Are they read

:23:18. > :23:24.lines as far as the D U P are concerned? Despite one of the big

:23:25. > :23:27.issues for the party will be around Brexit because of the land border

:23:28. > :23:30.between Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic. They want to ensure

:23:31. > :23:36.that whatever the final shape of the outcome it does not impede movement

:23:37. > :23:40.across the border. At the same time, they want to ensure that nothing is

:23:41. > :23:44.done to restrict free movement from Northern Ireland into the rest of

:23:45. > :23:47.the United Kingdom and right across the United Kingdom. Let's talk a

:23:48. > :23:52.little if we can about for example, what the Irish Prime Minister was

:23:53. > :23:56.saying, he called Theresa May to express his concern over a deal. He

:23:57. > :24:03.said he was seeking assurances to make sure that nothing would put the

:24:04. > :24:07.Good Friday agreement at risk. In the UK government continue to be an

:24:08. > :24:10.honest broker within this environment? I listen carefully to

:24:11. > :24:15.what he said. The strongest criticism of the position of the

:24:16. > :24:20.Conservative Party has come from his party but then they have a record of

:24:21. > :24:30.always criticising Secretaries of State. Previously they would --... I

:24:31. > :24:34.don't suspect there will be much support. The reality is that the

:24:35. > :24:37.Conservative government is the government of the day. The Secretary

:24:38. > :24:41.of State is the person to look after the affairs of Northern Ireland

:24:42. > :24:46.should have no problem there in terms of negotiations to restore

:24:47. > :24:50.devolution in Ireland. What do you say to people of concern about the

:24:51. > :24:57.length of the D U P to a violent past? The reality is there are links

:24:58. > :25:00.to a violent past. It is a democratic Unionist party. Members

:25:01. > :25:04.of the party were targeted by the provisional IRA, along with reddish

:25:05. > :25:10.soldiers and a lot of other innocent people. The fact is it is a

:25:11. > :25:13.Democratic Party and has views very much in line with some within the

:25:14. > :25:19.Conservative Party on many issues. Thank you for your time this

:25:20. > :25:23.morning. We should make clear as we did on Saturday, that we have put

:25:24. > :25:27.in, we have a D U Petre talked with the and to this point they have

:25:28. > :25:36.refused an invitation. -- we have asked the D U P to talk to us.

:25:37. > :25:37.Hopefully we will be speaking to someone from the party a little

:25:38. > :25:39.later on. We'll have the headlines

:25:40. > :25:43.in a moment, but first Steph is in the City of London

:25:44. > :25:45.for us this morning. Good morning from Mansion House,

:25:46. > :25:48.the official residence Across from me you can see

:25:49. > :26:00.the Bank of England - A lot of people having to work this

:26:01. > :26:04.morning. Lots of business people and people in general are wondering what

:26:05. > :26:07.on earth is going to happen next. What does all of this legal

:26:08. > :26:10.uncertainty mean for our economy and for daily business life at the

:26:11. > :26:14.moment? There has been some research by the Institute of directors, an

:26:15. > :26:21.organisation that lots of business leaders are members of, looking at

:26:22. > :26:25.what exactly I mean, at how people feel about it. They polled their

:26:26. > :26:30.members and asked them about how they felt stuck around 65% of them

:26:31. > :26:34.said that they feel that business confidence is fallen now, they feel

:26:35. > :26:39.uncertain about what the future may hold. That is political uncertainty

:26:40. > :26:43.we have now is not really helping them. Many people are thinking come

:26:44. > :26:46.on, we need to get on with Brexit talks and get some certainty into

:26:47. > :26:50.the business world so they can plan and work out their investment with a

:26:51. > :26:54.nest. This does not help the mood in the city like this. Businesses all

:26:55. > :26:58.over the country are trying to work out what it means. There was an

:26:59. > :27:03.initial reaction on Friday to the result in the currency markets.

:27:04. > :27:07.Since the referendum we have seen how much the pound has fallen

:27:08. > :27:10.against the euro and against the dollar and obviously when that

:27:11. > :27:13.happens it really hits the cost of buying things from abroad so

:27:14. > :27:18.bringing things into the country gets more expensive. It is good for

:27:19. > :27:21.exporting, goods manufacturers who sell things bought the then buying

:27:22. > :27:26.components from other parts of the world can add to the cost of things

:27:27. > :27:30.for them which is why we are starting to see prices going up in

:27:31. > :27:34.the supermarkets. Because of that cost and the change in currency

:27:35. > :27:38.markets. It fell dramatically when the referendum happened, when we got

:27:39. > :27:43.that result and we saw a fall again on Friday with the pound down about

:27:44. > :27:46.1.7%. Falling a bit of the back of all that. It may change again. We

:27:47. > :27:53.will get more information about what is going on. I will be here talking

:27:54. > :31:15.to business leaders about what will happen next for them. First, new

:31:16. > :31:17.Now, though, it's back to Louise and Dan.

:31:18. > :31:27.Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:31:28. > :31:30.We'll bring you all the latest news and sport in a moment,

:31:31. > :31:35.We've brought number ten to Salford - complete with Larry

:31:36. > :31:38.the Downing Street cat - We'll be finding out what drove

:31:39. > :31:41.Britain to vote the way it did and where we go from here.

:31:42. > :31:44.As the Prime Minister continues trying to strike deal

:31:45. > :31:46.with the DUP to create an effective Government,

:31:47. > :31:48.we'll speak to Brexit secretary David Davis

:31:49. > :31:51.He was given just months to live but Ian Toothill took on one

:31:52. > :31:53.of the biggest challenges in the world.

:31:54. > :31:56.He became the first cancer patient to conquer Everest and he'll be

:31:57. > :31:59.here to tell us about his extraordinary achievement.

:32:00. > :32:10.But now a summary of this morning's main news.

:32:11. > :32:13.Theresa May will today meet backbench Conservative MPs and set

:32:14. > :32:15.out her case for staying on in Downing Street.

:32:16. > :32:19.The Prime Minister will also chair a meeting of her newly reshuffled

:32:20. > :32:24.Michael Gove - one of the driving forces behind Brexit -

:32:25. > :32:28.Let's speak to our political correspondent Chris Mason who's

:32:29. > :32:37.Chris, it's been a tough few days for the Prime Minister,

:32:38. > :32:43.and potentially more trouble ahead today?

:32:44. > :32:48.I think that is an understatement. It will be as very difficult few

:32:49. > :32:53.days that the Prime Minister. The whole point of this election would

:32:54. > :32:56.that it would turbocharge her authority and she would be the

:32:57. > :33:00.dominating political figure of her time. Ahead of those Brexit talks

:33:01. > :33:04.starting in a week. Instead of it being a turbocharged, she has

:33:05. > :33:08.wheelclampers political authority. Hugely diminished within her own

:33:09. > :33:11.party and across the country, yesterday's cabinet reshuffle was an

:33:12. > :33:16.indication of that. A cabinet reshuffle is meant to be a big

:33:17. > :33:20.exercise of prime ministerial power and authority. It was pretty much a

:33:21. > :33:32.non- event and that tells you everything you need to know about

:33:33. > :33:36.Theresa May's diminished authority. Yes, she has brought Michael goes

:33:37. > :33:39.back and that is symbolic. She is trying to make the case that the

:33:40. > :33:42.Conservative tent is broad and she is willing to listen that this is

:33:43. > :33:46.the exact opposite. The absolute nightmare scenario where she would

:33:47. > :33:49.like to be a week ago. I have waited -- weight is around a bit in

:33:50. > :33:53.Breakfast. This is the Conservative manifesto. --I have waived this

:33:54. > :33:56.around. How much of this will she have to shred publicly in order to

:33:57. > :33:58.accommodate that DUP of Northern Ireland? And proper self up into

:33:59. > :34:03.government. Nicola Sturgeon will call

:34:04. > :34:05.for a cross-party "four nation" approach to the Brexit negotiations

:34:06. > :34:08.as she joins Scottish National Party The First Minister of

:34:09. > :34:11.Scotland wants membership of the European single market

:34:12. > :34:14.and the customs union to be "at the heart" of any agreement,

:34:15. > :34:17.with the rights of EU nationals living in the UK guaranteed

:34:18. > :34:26.with immediate effect. Detectives investigating

:34:27. > :34:28.the London Bridge attack have made A 19-year-old man was detained

:34:29. > :34:32.in Barking on suspicion of terrorism offences shortly before

:34:33. > :34:34.ten o'clock last night. Exit polls following the first

:34:35. > :34:48.round of France's parliamentary election suggest President Macron's

:34:49. > :34:51.new centrist party is on course Projections show La

:34:52. > :34:54.Republique en Marche and its MoDem ally look set to win

:34:55. > :34:58.up to 445 of the 577 seats The final outcome will be decided

:34:59. > :35:09.in a run-off next Sunday. Nearly five months after

:35:10. > :35:11.President Trump took office his wife, Melania,

:35:12. > :35:14.and son Barron, have moved They had stayed behind in New York

:35:15. > :35:18.so 11 year-old Barron The First Lady is the first

:35:19. > :35:22.in modern times not to move straight in, but she's tweeted

:35:23. > :35:25.that she is looking forward to the memories the family

:35:26. > :35:38.will make in their new home. A new poll suggests many

:35:39. > :35:40.children are confused Nearly a third of five

:35:41. > :35:44.to seven year olds surveyed by the British Nutrition Foundation

:35:45. > :35:47.thought that cheese came Just over one in five of the infants

:35:48. > :35:51.believed that animals Nearly a quarter thought

:35:52. > :35:54.prawns come from plants. And a fifth of those

:35:55. > :36:15.questioned thought that chips If you are watching us this morning

:36:16. > :36:17.and your children think that food comes from funny places, do get in

:36:18. > :36:26.touch. So much sport going on. It was a

:36:27. > :36:28.busy weekend. I am dying to talk to you about the triathlon. Exciting

:36:29. > :36:31.doesn't begin to describe it. Wales manager Chris Coleman thinks

:36:32. > :36:34.they need to win all four of their remaining World Cup

:36:35. > :36:37.qualifiers if they're to make sure A penalty from Aaron Ramsey gave

:36:38. > :36:42.them the lead against Serbia in But the home side equalised,

:36:43. > :36:45.leaving Wales four points behind the group leaders,

:36:46. > :37:01.with four games left. We were looking to win it in the

:37:02. > :37:06.last ten minutes. Once they equalised, we had two or three break

:37:07. > :37:10.away is where it could have been different but overall, a good game,

:37:11. > :37:13.a tough game. Two good things for us. A point, it's a good point.

:37:14. > :37:15.The Republic of Ireland are second in that group,

:37:16. > :37:18.level on points with Serbia - and they're still unbeaten

:37:19. > :37:21.after a 1-all draw with Austria in Dublin, thanks to Jon Walters'

:37:22. > :37:25.For the first time since 1966, an England national football team

:37:26. > :37:29.The U20's beat Venezuela 1-0 in the final in South Korea.

:37:30. > :37:34.Everton's Dominic Calvert-Lewin with the goal.

:37:35. > :37:39.They needed keeper Freddie Woodman to save a penalty in

:37:40. > :37:43.And the national side's senior manager believes this could be

:37:44. > :37:57.Obviously, ultimately, the aim is that those players come through to

:37:58. > :38:00.the seniors and a big part of that now is the event to get

:38:01. > :38:05.opportunities with their clubs because I think they have shown, if

:38:06. > :38:08.the under 20s were world champions, there is enough players there to

:38:09. > :38:11.fulfil careers in the game without looking elsewhere.

:38:12. > :38:15.Rafael Nadal said he thought he'd be fishing on his boat by now,

:38:16. > :38:17.not winning a Grand Slam for a record 10th time.

:38:18. > :38:19.He cruised past Stan Wawrinka in straight sets

:38:20. > :38:23.in the French Open final, to take his 15th major title -

:38:24. > :38:25.and he thinks one of his best, considering he's now

:38:26. > :38:47.I have 31 already. Because of the level of tennis and accepting I have

:38:48. > :38:52.been under physical problems for a couple of times in the last three

:38:53. > :39:03.for time, it is an important one. You cannot write him off. Who else

:39:04. > :39:07.can you never write off? The Brownlees. This is the first time we

:39:08. > :39:10.have seen them compete since Mexico last year when Alistair carried

:39:11. > :39:14.Johny over the finish line. There was a familiar sight in Leeds

:39:15. > :39:17.- but still a thrilling one - when for the second year in a row,

:39:18. > :39:20.double Olympic Champion. Alastair Brownlee beat his

:39:21. > :39:23.brother Jonny to victory in the World Triathlon Series

:39:24. > :39:25.in their home town. It was their first race together

:39:26. > :39:28.since Alistair carried Jonny over the line in last year's

:39:29. > :39:37.finale in Mexico. Johnny came out those in the

:39:38. > :39:40.swimming and Alastair caught him out and on the back leg, they were over

:39:41. > :39:46.one minute ahead. Where was everybody else behind them? Over one

:39:47. > :39:46.minute. Incredible. A brilliant performance.

:39:47. > :39:49.England's women were beaten by the Netherlands in their hockey

:39:50. > :39:53.The Dutch are the world's number one team and they went 2-0

:39:54. > :39:55.ahead before Sophie Bray brought England level.

:39:56. > :39:58.It went to penalties - and there was some revenge

:39:59. > :40:01.for the Netherland's, who lost in a shoot out to TeamGB

:40:02. > :40:04.in last year's Olympic final in Rio.

:40:05. > :40:07.In their very first season, Wasps have won the Netball Super

:40:08. > :40:09.The Coventry-based side pipped Loughborough Lightning

:40:10. > :40:23.Lewis Hamilton's Formula 1 title challenge is back on track

:40:24. > :40:25.after he won the Canadian Grand Prix.

:40:26. > :40:28.He lead from start to finish in Montreal to take the chequered

:40:29. > :40:31.flag there for the sixth time - and cut Sebastian Vettel's

:40:32. > :40:36.championship lead to 12 points after he could only finish fourth.

:40:37. > :40:46.My first win here, ten years ago, this is incredibly special. I have

:40:47. > :40:50.to thank my team that made this impossible. The guys back in the

:40:51. > :40:54.factory to work hard to really fix what we had in the last race to

:40:55. > :40:56.bring it here. If you are looking at the television at home thinking that

:40:57. > :41:05.they recognise the sports broadcaster. It is, in fact, Sir

:41:06. > :41:13.Patrick Stewart of Star Trek and X-Men fame.

:41:14. > :41:19.Four days on from the general election and there still seems to be

:41:20. > :41:23.We've brought Downing Street to us here at Breakfast.

:41:24. > :41:26.Dan has gone downstairs to a mock-up Number ten where he's meeting

:41:27. > :41:39.I am not really inside the real number ten. This is more Perspex

:41:40. > :41:45.than glass but look at our little set that we have managed to put

:41:46. > :41:49.together. It is complete with some of the lamp posts and the front

:41:50. > :41:55.door, the famous front door, just slightly smaller than it is in real

:41:56. > :41:58.life. The way you can tell is it is fake, the door actually opens from

:41:59. > :42:03.the outside because the real number ten doesn't even have a keyhole in

:42:04. > :42:10.it and you can only open it from the inside. We have our slightly own

:42:11. > :42:14.slightly dishevelled -- very own slightly dishevelled Larry the cat.

:42:15. > :42:30.In case you were wondering, it is not real. We have been talking about

:42:31. > :42:34.protest and policy. We have a panel of voters with us throughout the

:42:35. > :42:46.morning. The first is that of austerity. You are a midwife. I

:42:47. > :42:52.wonder how austerity generally affects your everyday work as a

:42:53. > :42:59.midwife. Leak on the NHS needs investment. -- clearly, the NHS

:43:00. > :43:03.needs investment. You will see a division in the care that is

:43:04. > :43:09.provided otherwise. The public sector pay cap was one of the

:43:10. > :43:13.reasons that I voted Labour. It really is public services in general

:43:14. > :43:18.but specifically the NHS. The staff that work there need investment.

:43:19. > :43:25.They are tired, they are demoralised, they need to be

:43:26. > :43:32.rewarded for the... So when you cast your vote last week... Investment in

:43:33. > :43:37.the NHS was absolutely key. As a midwife, the promise in the

:43:38. > :43:41.manifesto about proper support for infant deaths and bereavement

:43:42. > :43:45.support for parents who lose our baby, these things are really,

:43:46. > :43:50.really important to me and Labour were promising what I wanted them to

:43:51. > :43:59.do and specifically invest in the NHS which we all use, we all should

:44:00. > :44:07.be proud of it. With you feeling that in the education sector as a

:44:08. > :44:12.teacher as well? Absolutely. We are creating unequal economies, unequal

:44:13. > :44:16.communities. Stress is being put on families. Children are turning up to

:44:17. > :44:20.school hungry and teachers as well as teaching and learning are having

:44:21. > :44:27.to deal with the well-being of their child. The decision is being made

:44:28. > :44:31.whether to give them breakfast. It is impacting on the well-being of

:44:32. > :44:36.the child. In terms of the life of the child, they are in a classroom

:44:37. > :44:40.where there are unprecedented numbers. The social divide between

:44:41. > :44:45.the children who are there and doing very well who have access to

:44:46. > :44:50.technology, access to wonderful life experiences and yet at the same

:44:51. > :44:55.time, the poorest, the fifth of the community who are there without the

:44:56. > :44:59.same life chances and life experiences are having to compete

:45:00. > :45:02.together, worked together and what message are we giving to those

:45:03. > :45:09.children when we want them to succeed and do well for our country?

:45:10. > :45:16.Well covered in terms of healthcare, we have a midwife and two doctors.

:45:17. > :45:21.From your perspective, social care has been a big issue in this

:45:22. > :45:25.election campaign. The last few weeks and months as well. Was

:45:26. > :45:33.austerity are part of that and a decision on when you cast your vote?

:45:34. > :45:40.Completely. I am a GP. We are a rare and dying breed. You can't get in to

:45:41. > :45:44.see a GP. You can't get a hospital bed and we are short of money.

:45:45. > :45:50.Everybody knows we are short of money. It's a great idea, let's take

:45:51. > :45:55.another service that is short of money and join the mob. That will

:45:56. > :46:00.generate lots of new money that will look after all of the shortfall in

:46:01. > :46:05.and we will have a marvellous, working, fully paid for NHS? No. It

:46:06. > :46:12.won't happen. We have seen people picking up the pieces. Doctors,

:46:13. > :46:16.nurses, people are doing it from a vocation and goodwill and actually,

:46:17. > :46:24.that is running out. GPs are leaving. Jeremy Hunt made this

:46:25. > :46:29.promise to recruit GPs and he has lost GPs since he made that promise.

:46:30. > :46:30.People are seeing it and feeling it every. People are in pain and

:46:31. > :46:47.waiting longer to see doctors. So, Alison, small business. Where

:46:48. > :46:51.you nodding when you heard reports like that from the other side of the

:46:52. > :46:59.sofa? I am nodding but one thing I think, what we've failed in is lack

:47:00. > :47:05.of support for small business in both manifestoes. After all, would

:47:06. > :47:08.we have power of the X amount of cash and if we don't support

:47:09. > :47:12.businesses than that pot of money stays exactly the same. For me,

:47:13. > :47:18.again, more support and I think what we find it now is that entrepreneurs

:47:19. > :47:21.are very resilient. They are used to moving and doing things on a

:47:22. > :47:27.sixpence per what they will do now is, if we do not support them, they

:47:28. > :47:33.do not employ people. And we don't -- do not employ people, we do not

:47:34. > :47:37.get tax. It perpetuates. It's great to say that we can support social

:47:38. > :47:42.care and the NHS but without the port itself, the criticisms I saw

:47:43. > :47:47.where people were changing was to do with the money tree comments. You

:47:48. > :47:53.know what? There is no money tree. There is a set amount of money that

:47:54. > :47:58.we have and we need to support small business to increase the size of

:47:59. > :48:02.that money tree. It is an interesting issue. But speak to two

:48:03. > :48:06.of our experts who will be with us through the morning. Tom from the

:48:07. > :48:16.head of pensions at Lansdown, we were together in North Wales, in

:48:17. > :48:22.London. And Tom, austerity, you hear the difference it makes to people's

:48:23. > :48:26.lives. As it has been an issue since 2010 in elections, are we likely to

:48:27. > :48:30.see Theresa May and the Conservatives easing off a little

:48:31. > :48:33.after the result? They do have an interesting conundrum because I am

:48:34. > :48:36.sure they still believe in the imperative to balance the books,

:48:37. > :48:40.everything we used to hear from Philip Hammond and George Osborne.

:48:41. > :48:44.They were not successful bringing the budget deficit down, they spoke

:48:45. > :48:47.about it, they did not really deliver it. They have been punished

:48:48. > :48:54.at the polls for being too austere now. So do they, did a double down

:48:55. > :48:57.on the austerity? Do they say no, it is still about being fiscally

:48:58. > :49:02.prudent, balancing the books, getting finance back in order? We

:49:03. > :49:05.still really need to get the public sector back in place where it is not

:49:06. > :49:12.haemorrhaging money, which is how they perceive it. Or, do they say

:49:13. > :49:16.look, we were punished at the pollster that, let us listen up a

:49:17. > :49:19.little bit. But spend a little money on the state pension triple lock.

:49:20. > :49:23.But spend money on the NHS, make ourselves popular again because,

:49:24. > :49:27.probably, they have half an eye on the next election and how that one

:49:28. > :49:31.will play for them. One of the other issues we saw last week was to using

:49:32. > :49:35.the Conservatives may be overestimated what happened with the

:49:36. > :49:38.Ukip vote was to mark maybe half of the wing conservative but half of

:49:39. > :49:42.the Winter Labour Party as well. I think they got the vote wrong in the

:49:43. > :49:46.sense that the assumption was that if we talk a lot about Brexit, Ukip

:49:47. > :49:51.voters will come to us. Many Ukip voters had fled from Labour and they

:49:52. > :49:54.assume Brexit is a done deal now and they did not like what they have

:49:55. > :49:58.from the Conservatives about the economy so they went back home to a

:49:59. > :50:03.party that, in the context of Brexit, will would invest more on

:50:04. > :50:06.public service. That debate about austerity, left the Conservative

:50:07. > :50:10.shot. Partly because Philip Hammond was not allowed out on the campaign

:50:11. > :50:16.trail so he could not come out and counter some of the promises from

:50:17. > :50:20.Labour on spending. I noticed that nobody has touched a pastry so far

:50:21. > :50:24.so please feel free to tuck in. We shall be back on our sofa outside

:50:25. > :50:26.fake ten and will later on that lets catch up with the weather.

:50:27. > :50:35.If you are stepping out and you have an allergy to graphs pollen, these

:50:36. > :50:41.are the levels. High or very high. -- grasp them. Warmer this week and

:50:42. > :50:46.by Wednesday parts of the south could have Ted Richards reaching 27

:50:47. > :50:50.or 28. UV levels will also be high, we look at a figure of eight, about

:50:51. > :50:54.as high as it gets in the UK. This week we will see very little in the

:50:55. > :50:58.way of rainfall is that there will be some, but nothing too heavy.

:50:59. > :51:03.Breezy at times and warmest mid week in the south. Today, low pressure

:51:04. > :51:06.dry Sao weather. This front introducing some showers. You can

:51:07. > :51:09.tell by the squeeze on the ice above there will be a fairly breezy day

:51:10. > :51:12.but particularly windy across central and southern Scotland and

:51:13. > :51:17.north-east England. In Northumberland in particular. You

:51:18. > :51:22.can see the funnelling effect we have across the valley where there

:51:23. > :51:25.will be discussed is the wind. Showers across Scotland and across

:51:26. > :51:28.to Northern Ireland in northern England. Quite a lot of cloud around

:51:29. > :51:32.this morning as well. Some showers as well across Wales and the north

:51:33. > :51:36.Midlands, fewer showers across southern England but it is a lot of

:51:37. > :51:39.cloud. Nonetheless, we will see that cloud turnover and some of us will

:51:40. > :51:45.see some sunshine, particularly so as we lose a lot of the showers

:51:46. > :51:48.through the course of the afternoon and we see sunshine developed

:51:49. > :51:52.elsewhere. It will be breezy, the wind is easing a touch on the north

:51:53. > :51:56.of the country and if you happen to be in the sunshine, it will not be

:51:57. > :52:00.as warm as was yesterday, especially in East Anglia. The warmest part the

:52:01. > :52:07.UK 24 Celsius, today we look at 20 may be 21, pleasant enough still. As

:52:08. > :52:10.the head on into the evening and overnight there will be clear skies

:52:11. > :52:13.developing with the patchy mist and fog falling across southern counties

:52:14. > :52:22.and into the south-west. And then a new set of weather fronts, our way

:52:23. > :52:25.of bringing rain. No particular cold night won't be particularly cold

:52:26. > :52:32.start to the day. These are the front bringing that rain, turning or

:52:33. > :52:37.shower, large space between the highs of us are not as windy. That

:52:38. > :52:43.means that the southern areas that will be warm and sunny and drier

:52:44. > :52:46.than it has been today. Showers rivalling from the north-west of

:52:47. > :52:53.England across the north-east, they will be hit and miss and the rain

:52:54. > :52:58.coming in from Scotland. Top temperatures today between 14 and

:52:59. > :53:03.24. Into Wednesday, high pressure still has a good grip on whether in

:53:04. > :53:09.the south a lot of sunshine around this is when it will be particularly

:53:10. > :53:12.warm but in the north we do have front introducing rain. Away from

:53:13. > :53:17.that it will still be pleasant, looking at 20 and Aberdeen, 21 in

:53:18. > :53:19.Newcastle, but the highest temperature over East Anglia and the

:53:20. > :53:30.south-east. Thank you very much, Carol. Look at

:53:31. > :53:32.that. How Wong will it be? First the business leader since the election

:53:33. > :53:35.result reveals concern that the political uncertainty could have a

:53:36. > :53:39.negative impact on the economy. Stephanie is in the city of London

:53:40. > :53:43.for a sore morning to gauge reaction there. Good morning. Good morning.

:53:44. > :53:48.Good morning, everyone. Business as usual here this morning with lots of

:53:49. > :53:53.people heading into work. You can see behind me here is the Bank of

:53:54. > :53:56.England is at the famous landmark from around London. You have the

:53:57. > :54:01.gherkin building popping its head up there. All the buildings, all the

:54:02. > :54:05.crazy names here. Of course there will be many people heading to work

:54:06. > :54:08.today wondering what on earth does all the political uncertainty now

:54:09. > :54:12.mean for our economy and what can business do to try make sure they

:54:13. > :54:16.can carry on doing what they do best? We have a couple of guests

:54:17. > :54:19.with us to chat to this morning. Catherine from the city of London

:54:20. > :54:25.Corporation and Carolyn from the CBI to represent business. What's your

:54:26. > :54:30.reaction to all of this? It has been such a crazy few days. We have

:54:31. > :54:33.expected it and like you said, it creates great uncertainty for this

:54:34. > :54:46.sector. It is destabilising and something we need to try to on to

:54:47. > :54:53.was quickly as we can. Move -- move on from. We need to look at how to

:54:54. > :54:57.cope with Brexit. That is an existential question what we need to

:54:58. > :55:02.be doing is moving towards a deal as soon as we possibly can, and deal

:55:03. > :55:05.which listens to the needs of the sector because it is a sector that

:55:06. > :55:09.affects the real economy and which gives us what the country needs to

:55:10. > :55:15.thrive for the future, clearly, talking to the sector they need to

:55:16. > :55:19.weigh access to market which benefits Europe as well as it

:55:20. > :55:24.benefits up. Access to the best people for the best jobs and

:55:25. > :55:27.attendances or periods we can through this smoothly. Now we hope

:55:28. > :55:32.that having seen the country divided over the past we were taken that

:55:33. > :55:36.Parliament will take the opportunity to look carefully at what the sector

:55:37. > :55:42.needs because, as I say, it affects so many people. We have talked lots

:55:43. > :55:46.over the last year about all of the different things from Brexit and

:55:47. > :55:48.everything else going on. Your organisation represents thousands of

:55:49. > :55:54.businesses. What is your worry about this? Good morning. Uncertainty has

:55:55. > :55:59.gone right up the Richter scale. That does matter. It matters for all

:56:00. > :56:02.of us. It makes companies hit the pause button on investment and

:56:03. > :56:07.investment today's jobs in the future. It really matters. What we

:56:08. > :56:11.think the opportunity now is is to change the mindset. Or the economy

:56:12. > :56:15.right back at the top of the agenda, talk about all the things that

:56:16. > :56:18.matter to jobs and growth. Bring business in as participants, not

:56:19. > :56:23.just as observers in the whole thing. Do you feel like business

:56:24. > :56:28.were spoken to enough in the run-up to the election by politicians?

:56:29. > :56:31.There were some good engagement, for example, the business Secretary had

:56:32. > :56:36.a lot of good discussion. The opportunity now is to take it to a

:56:37. > :56:39.different level, you know? We are all in this together and I think

:56:40. > :56:42.business has a lot to contribute. Frankly it will be a business

:56:43. > :56:47.success that creates the living standard of the future. An Brexit

:56:48. > :56:50.let's get the focus right up there on single market access. After

:56:51. > :56:56.trade. So many jobs are linked to that. A cat home it is about action

:56:57. > :57:01.on homes on digital on road and rail, the things that matter to all

:57:02. > :57:04.of us and make it easier to do business. It is an opportunity, I

:57:05. > :57:10.think, to have a mindset change and to get things going. Businesses used

:57:11. > :57:14.to dealing with uncertainty so they are often good at dealing with these

:57:15. > :57:17.circumstances. We are a great force for good in all of this. Bring

:57:18. > :57:20.stability and investment. They are optimistic about all of this but

:57:21. > :57:23.they do need some support from government around the

:57:24. > :57:27.infrastructure, around the right deal on Brexit and if you can get

:57:28. > :57:32.some kind of movement on those things, I think business can be a

:57:33. > :57:36.great partner in all of this and do some very good things. Great to hear

:57:37. > :57:39.that optimism. We will speak to you later on. Thank you for your time

:57:40. > :00:59.this morning. I will be here through the

:02:09. > :02:12.New research suggests that confidence has fallen

:02:13. > :02:15.because of the political uncertainty following the election and concerns

:02:16. > :02:27.I will be talking about it with business leaders.

:03:15. > :03:15.us will see some sunshine. Especially this afternoon. I will

:03:16. > :03:17.have more details in 15 minutes. Theresa May will today meet

:03:18. > :03:21.backbench Conservative MPs and set out her case for staying

:03:22. > :03:24.on in Downing Street. The Prime Minister will

:03:25. > :03:26.also chair a meeting Michael Gove - one of the driving

:03:27. > :03:30.forces behind Brexit - Mrs May is also still

:04:04. > :04:14.rally around Mrs May. Jeremy Corbyn did not

:04:15. > :04:17.win this election. It's absolutely right

:04:18. > :04:19.that she should go ahead, form a government and deliver

:04:20. > :04:22.on the priorities of the people. I'm going to be

:04:23. > :04:24.backing her, absolutely everybody I'm talking to is going

:04:25. > :04:29.to be backing her as well. Mrs May's reshuffle sees

:04:30. > :04:31.the pro-European Damian Green, an old friend of the Prime Minister,

:04:41. > :04:43.stay where they are, including Jeremy Hunt at health

:04:44. > :04:46.and Liam Fox at international trade. Mrs May will hope the reshuffle,

:04:47. > :04:49.most notable for its lack of changes, will help her

:04:50. > :04:51.reach out to Tory MPs. She said last night she intends

:05:48. > :05:50.but first Chris Mason is in Downing Chris , it's been a tough few days

:05:51. > :05:54.for the Prime Minister, and potentially more

:05:55. > :06:11.trouble ahead today? The big plan for today would be the

:06:12. > :06:17.day that Theresa May would invite a whole flock of people that would

:06:18. > :06:21.cement her as the dominating ahead of the Brexit negotiations. Instead,

:06:22. > :06:26.she has been humbled and her majority shrivelled nothing. She is

:06:27. > :06:33.much, much weaker figure as a result of minority government. I am

:06:34. > :06:36.speaking to a conservative MP and it says there has to be a humble

:06:37. > :06:45.approach from the Prime Minister. She has to recognise how she has

:06:46. > :06:49.gone wrong. Gavin Barwell was a minister, then he lost his seat now

:06:50. > :06:56.he is the Prime Minister's new chief of staff. This is the manifesto I

:06:57. > :07:01.spent the campaign waving around but it will be shredded in the

:07:02. > :07:02.negotiations to come with Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionist party.

:07:03. > :07:07.Chris, there was confusion at the weekend about whether there

:07:08. > :07:09.is actually a deal in place with the DUP.

:07:10. > :07:23.I think there is little doubt that they will be at deal, it just

:07:24. > :07:27.depends on what shape it will take. The DUP will be pushing for more

:07:28. > :07:31.money, more investment for Northern Ireland and want a stronger voice

:07:32. > :07:38.with regards to Breakfast -- Brexit. They want a say in what happens to

:07:39. > :07:44.the whole of the UK for example the pensions policy. Fuel allowance for

:07:45. > :07:47.older people being protected. The Westminster government is looking

:11:22. > :11:35.You up-to-date with the latest news. You are watching breakfast.

:11:36. > :11:38.We've been at Westminster so much over the past few days,

:11:39. > :11:40.we thought we'd bring Downing Street to us.

:11:41. > :11:45.And Dan is there finding out what inspired so many young people

:11:46. > :11:51.to head to the ballot box in this election

:11:52. > :12:00.Welcome to our not so real Downing Street. This is our fabrication.

:12:01. > :12:05.We've post, street names, Larry the cat and all of that stuff. It is a

:12:06. > :12:11.really important week this weekend, a Cabinet meeting. Talks about the

:12:12. > :12:17.DUP this afternoon. What we're looking at is of the key issues on

:12:18. > :12:22.how we cast our vote in the general election. We have already spoken

:12:23. > :12:27.about austerity. One of the other massive factors was the youth vote.

:12:28. > :12:32.I'm sure you saw claims from the Labour Party, 75% of those young

:12:33. > :12:36.people voted. We will get confirmation later this week but it

:12:37. > :12:45.is that -- if it is anywhere near that number, it is up around 30% of

:12:46. > :13:02.last time. We have some young voters here. These people all qualify for

:13:03. > :13:07.young voters under the age of 25. What was it for all of you that in

:13:08. > :13:12.due to vote the way you did last week? As a young person growing up

:13:13. > :13:16.under successive Tory governments, I have seen first hand the way that

:13:17. > :13:22.they ripped apart the social fabric of our communities, I have seen it

:13:23. > :13:26.the way they made people divide amongst one another, I've seen that

:13:27. > :13:31.the way that community is no longer have the centres for young people,

:13:32. > :13:37.nurses have been driven to food banks. Successive Tory governments

:13:38. > :13:47.have stopped investing in young people for the future. For us,

:13:48. > :13:50.personally, we have had enough of being demoralised. Corbyn came along

:13:51. > :13:56.and said it doesn't need to be like this, there is an alternative, we as

:13:57. > :14:02.a society do not need to have the Tories ideal community. We can care

:14:03. > :14:05.for each other, we can be an outward looking country and stop being

:14:06. > :14:12.intolerant towards others. We don't need to look at having such diverse

:14:13. > :14:16.committees as a bad thing. I feel like also the way that Jeremy Corbyn

:14:17. > :14:24.has been betrayed in the media and even betrayed his own labour MPs was

:14:25. > :14:28.absolutely disgusting. I feel at that encouraged me more to get

:14:29. > :14:32.involved and look at him as a person. He stood on the right side

:14:33. > :14:35.of history on every single issue in my opinion and I prefer that over

:14:36. > :14:43.Theresa May who didn't even believe in things they write a couple of

:14:44. > :14:47.years back, so. I suppose the cynical point of view is to say that

:14:48. > :14:54.Jeremy Corbyn offered your generation free stuff and it worked.

:14:55. > :14:57.Yaman. And actually, it did work. I believe, well, I think there were

:14:58. > :15:01.two sorts of voters that I could see. Those people who wanted to vote

:15:02. > :15:06.Tory didn't like Theresa May and those people who actually did

:15:07. > :15:14.genuinely like Jeremy Corbyn. I think what's happened is a total

:15:15. > :15:20.rejection of Theresa May's ideals. From young people. Even when you

:15:21. > :15:24.look at the amount of us that turned up to vote for the referendum who

:15:25. > :15:33.voted for remain as well. I feel that this election, I feel she has

:15:34. > :15:37.lost her mandate to go for hard Brexit. She had no choice but to

:15:38. > :15:42.compromise and to listen to us, the young voters.

:15:43. > :15:49.The Tories still won is over 300 seat she has not really been wiped

:15:50. > :15:54.out that they still have more seats than Labour. She entered because she

:15:55. > :15:59.thought she would have a landslide and a mandate for Brexit and she has

:16:00. > :16:04.lost. In terms of the landscape of society, there has been a shift and,

:16:05. > :16:07.you know, I am sure there are many young people out there today and who

:16:08. > :16:12.have voted and people who have not voted for much of their lives and

:16:13. > :16:17.have voted to go and vote and say to those people, don't lose hope. We

:16:18. > :16:21.made one step in the right direction. The fact we have been

:16:22. > :16:24.able to take some secure, you know, Conservative seat from

:16:25. > :16:31.constituencies and put them in the hands of Labour, for example, the

:16:32. > :16:35.Ukip voters. They were discussing on the BBC that they have been more or

:16:36. > :16:40.less equally disbursed between the other parties, all the seats that

:16:41. > :16:47.you could have lost. Now for voters to change their psychological

:16:48. > :16:56.preferences... The ideas of Ukip on the right, past new Labour, plus the

:16:57. > :17:05.labour of Tony Leonard to social Democrat Jeremy Corbyn, that is a

:17:06. > :17:09.massive ship a makeshift. -- shift. You are from bite the ballot trying

:17:10. > :17:12.to get people engaged in politics. We have three young people clearly

:17:13. > :17:21.engaged over here. Were you surprised by the numbers that came

:17:22. > :17:24.out last week? No. If you look at the figures became after the

:17:25. > :17:29.referendum method of young people turned up. That was a result of it

:17:30. > :17:34.being a single issue, an issue of their future. This general election

:17:35. > :17:39.was also was about young people realising that this is about

:17:40. > :17:46.participation. If you get involved you can make change. Brexit showed

:17:47. > :17:50.that if you participated you could make a change. Victoria River from

:17:51. > :17:54.the University of leads. Do you think that given the success the

:17:55. > :17:57.Labour Party had with young voters will see the Conservatives try to

:17:58. > :18:01.tap into that under the parties as well? I think they probably will

:18:02. > :18:05.otherwise Villa may be difficult for them to do so. Conservative relies

:18:06. > :18:09.on what is called the great foe. What we saw was a feeling that,

:18:10. > :18:14.actually, they relied on it so much that they did not need to play to it

:18:15. > :18:17.any more. We saw the removal of the triple lock, and replacing with a

:18:18. > :18:22.double lock. We saw issues relating to what has been dubbed the dementia

:18:23. > :18:25.tax. These things are deeply worrying for that sector. Because

:18:26. > :18:29.the Conservatives may go back and refocus on that sector because it is

:18:30. > :18:39.more conservative -- traditional territory for them. Influences on

:18:40. > :18:44.the way that people that voted. You are one of the people hit on

:18:45. > :18:48.Westminster Bridge. This security an issue for you? It has always been an

:18:49. > :18:53.issue for me and I'd don't think the attack changed anything along those

:18:54. > :18:57.lines. You can play politics, personally I think... I don't think

:18:58. > :19:02.the sort of events should be politicised as many people have

:19:03. > :19:09.done. But, yeah, with regards to security being an issue, I don't

:19:10. > :19:13.think... While it is an issue in every election I don't think it

:19:14. > :19:20.played any further issue in this election. Preliminary polls were

:19:21. > :19:24.already coming out and it shows that in this pushback against terror, the

:19:25. > :19:29.pushback against the effect of terror, people have not really

:19:30. > :19:35.allowed that to influence their vote. If that makes sense. Thank you

:19:36. > :19:39.very much. I am glad to see you are doing well. Great to have you back

:19:40. > :19:42.here on the sofa. Thank you to all of you. The weather outside here

:19:43. > :19:46.this morning as little dismal, Carol. Can you tell us what it will

:19:47. > :19:56.be like? What we're looking at this week is a

:19:57. > :20:01.little bit of rain on the forecast at times. We have that this morning.

:20:02. > :20:06.Breezy at times as well and it will be quite warm, particularly so on

:20:07. > :20:10.Wednesday. Today, low pressure drives the weather and that

:20:11. > :20:14.introduces showers and you can tell by the squeeze on those isobars that

:20:15. > :20:16.it will be breezy, particularly windy across central and southern

:20:17. > :20:21.Scotland and north-east England. Especially Northumberland. That will

:20:22. > :20:26.spread east through the day along with the showers. Cloud will turn

:20:27. > :20:30.over and sunny spells will develop. In the sunshine it will feel

:20:31. > :20:33.pleasant. Yesterday we hit 24 Celsius in East Anglia, was the

:20:34. > :20:38.highest temperature in the land, today is more likely to be 20 or 21

:20:39. > :20:41.somewhere in the south-east. Through this evening and overnight, dry

:20:42. > :20:45.weather and clear skies forming. There will also be patchy mist and

:20:46. > :20:49.fog across southern and south-western part of both England

:20:50. > :20:52.and Wales and we have rain spilling across Northern Ireland, was in

:20:53. > :20:57.Scotland, north-west England and also north-west Wales. Another cold

:20:58. > :21:01.night, and a cold start to the day. Those weather fronts coming in from

:21:02. > :21:04.the Atlantic. High-pressure drives this weather to the south so things

:21:05. > :21:09.will settle down across southern England and also south Wales. Here

:21:10. > :21:14.is the temperature rising through the day to about 23 or four. Patchy

:21:15. > :21:18.rain moving from the west to the east across northern England and

:21:19. > :21:21.tending to fade and moving out across Northern Ireland and Scotland

:21:22. > :21:25.will become more Chari and nature through the rest of the day. The

:21:26. > :21:31.temperature will reach about 18 in the north, 23 24 in the south but

:21:32. > :21:33.then, as I mentioned, it will reach 2728 on Wednesday. Look at that.

:21:34. > :21:36.Thank you very much, Carol. You might be about to battle

:21:37. > :21:39.through the Monday morning traffic but it's unlikely your journey

:21:40. > :21:42.will be as epic as this one. At nine o'clock, a 67-year-old coach

:21:43. > :21:46.with a top speed of 40 miles per hour is setting off from Norwich

:21:47. > :21:49.to its original home in the Shetland That's a journey of 1200 miles,

:21:50. > :21:58.but it's a labour of love Fiona Lamdin is in

:21:59. > :22:13.Norwich to tell us more. Good morning. Yes, as you say, 67

:22:14. > :22:19.years old. You can see that destination, 1200 miles. She will be

:22:20. > :22:23.setting off in a few hours. In the 50s, 60s, 70s, she really was the

:22:24. > :22:28.lifeline to the islanders. She would take children to school, fishermen

:22:29. > :22:33.to both start looking for it. How often you see a code with a sunroof

:22:34. > :22:37.like this? If you are still warm, the driver even has his own personal

:22:38. > :22:41.air-conditioning stop the seats are still the same, they are original.

:22:42. > :22:42.Yesterday I was lucky enough to take a journey through the Norfolk

:22:43. > :22:56.countryside. This 1950 Bedford OBE is finally on

:22:57. > :23:02.her way home. And behind the wheel, that -year-old John Ward. It was a

:23:03. > :23:07.pleasure driving a bus like this. For years, this pair were a lifeline

:23:08. > :23:13.to hundreds of islanders living on the Shetlands. Delivering children

:23:14. > :23:16.to school, fishermen to their boats, even bringing people home in time

:23:17. > :23:20.for dinner. And one of those children was Nicki Ridgeley. This is

:23:21. > :23:26.the first time on the bus for 50 years. Same seat covers and

:23:27. > :23:34.everything. Do you remember we used to set? Sometimes I was nervous. I

:23:35. > :23:38.was starting secondary school it was a big step to go on the bus with all

:23:39. > :23:44.of the other big bull children, you know? Back when I was four wheeze to

:23:45. > :23:52.use it for a Sunday school picnic. Going to the beach to the day. It

:23:53. > :23:57.was a big adventure to go for a day out. In 1979 after many miles and

:23:58. > :24:03.many years of service, she was brought south, ending up in Norfolk

:24:04. > :24:07.for her retirement where the owner has spent the last six years

:24:08. > :24:12.restoring her. But Nick is gifting his bus back to the island from

:24:13. > :24:18.which it came. You look after her. Here are the keys. Look after her,

:24:19. > :24:24.please. And so for the next 12 days the team will travel 1200 miles at

:24:25. > :24:28.40 miles an hour, to get her home. Will love it up there. They remember

:24:29. > :24:33.it. It is a part of their history. It is not part of mind, it is theirs

:24:34. > :24:35.and that is where it should be. How do you feel that it is coming home?

:24:36. > :24:47.Very happy. Extremely happy. I am with the original owner, the

:24:48. > :24:50.current owner and the next few minutes to be the new owner again.

:24:51. > :24:56.Coming over to Nick. Why are you giving her away? John contacted me

:24:57. > :24:59.from the Shetland Islands and I knew the coach came from the Shetland

:25:00. > :25:04.Islands. Many came go to seed clearly was very emotional. I was so

:25:05. > :25:08.touched by that moment I thought you know, it has to go back. It was a

:25:09. > :25:14.trigger moment. Can you believe you are getting her back? It is

:25:15. > :25:21.wonderful. All credit to Nick for doing this. Will she make it? It is

:25:22. > :25:25.a long journey. I hope so. The Bishop will bless us so that may

:25:26. > :25:29.help. She is only 28 horsepower which is a quarter of the size of

:25:30. > :25:33.the mini so, you know, she will struggle but I am sure she will get

:25:34. > :25:37.there. As you heard that, the Bishop will bless. He will do that in the

:25:38. > :25:42.next hour or so. It is interesting to know that she does not have

:25:43. > :25:47.breakdowns are they are very confident she will make it. I hope

:25:48. > :25:56.people waved to the coach on the wave is that it is so beautiful. It

:25:57. > :26:00.looks rather impressive, doesn't it? 25 minutes past seven. I have made

:26:01. > :26:10.it all the way back now from Downing Street. Quite a long journey. I

:26:11. > :26:14.thought you did it in a tardis. The financial markets and businesses are

:26:15. > :26:18.still assessing the impact of election results. Stephanie is out

:26:19. > :26:22.about as this morning. She is in the of London. Good morning. Good

:26:23. > :26:26.morning everyone. We are outside the Bank of England here. A lovely place

:26:27. > :26:31.to watch the world go by, everyone start their working day. Many people

:26:32. > :26:34.wondering what on earth the political uncertainty is going to

:26:35. > :26:41.mean. Many businesses trying to work out what impact it may have. We have

:26:42. > :26:45.a regular on the show with us. There's many ways of looking at

:26:46. > :26:48.this, aren't there, in the currency market, server is happening, what

:26:49. > :26:53.are your thoughts? Three things to look out. Visible, the currency. But

:26:54. > :26:57.moved quite the last week. It recovered addicted to other key

:26:58. > :27:02.things, confidence and competence. Business confidence. Today,

:27:03. > :27:04.information showing that business confidence is tweaking consumer

:27:05. > :27:09.confidence, we know we began to weaken and that is the largest part

:27:10. > :27:12.of our economy. Two thirds of it is down to you and me, don't yeah

:27:13. > :27:16.spending. In terms of confidence, why is it falling? What is the

:27:17. > :27:21.worry? A couple of things. Business wants to know what is happening with

:27:22. > :27:24.Brexit. What is the next stage? Will the government get a majority in

:27:25. > :27:29.fattening policies through? Consumers are in debt. How much

:27:30. > :27:33.further can they take that? How much more can expand with a those are the

:27:34. > :27:37.big questions. And many have issues in regard to house prices with signs

:27:38. > :27:42.that may be weakening and, remember, that is a primary assets of people

:27:43. > :27:46.and if it does we can, so are you. We were talking to a letter in the

:27:47. > :27:50.programme as well as other business leaders about what they are hoping

:27:51. > :31:20.to hear from politicians given all of the election fallout.

:31:21. > :31:23.Good morning and welcome back. This is breakfast with Dan Walker and

:31:24. > :31:29.Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:31:30. > :31:32.Theresa May will today meet backbench Conservative MPs and set

:31:33. > :31:34.out her case for staying on in Downing Street.

:31:46. > :31:46.with Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionists.

:31:47. > :31:48.She's hoping a deal with Arlene Foster's party

:31:49. > :31:51.will secure support for the Tories on big votes

:32:26. > :32:28.movement across the border and at the same time ensure that nothing it

:32:29. > :32:32.would be done to restrict free movement from Northern Ireland into

:36:06. > :36:08.and a big part of that now is for them to get

:36:09. > :36:11.opportunities with their clubs because I think they have shown,

:36:12. > :36:14.if the under 20s were world champions, there is enough players

:36:15. > :36:17.there to fulfil careers in the game Hopefully we will see more of them

:36:18. > :36:30.playing in the Premier League, too. Rafael Nadal said he thought he'd be

:36:31. > :36:33.fishing on his boat by now, not winning a Grand Slam

:36:34. > :36:36.for a record 10th time. He cruised past Stan

:36:37. > :36:38.Wawrinka in straight sets in the French Open final,

:36:39. > :36:41.to take his 15th major title - and he thinks one of his best,

:36:42. > :36:44.considering he's now I am 31 already so...I'm

:36:45. > :36:50.not a kid anymore. But, yeah, because of

:36:51. > :36:56.the level of tennis and accepting I have

:37:11. > :37:15.for victory at the Oval - and they made it with

:37:16. > :37:17.12 overs to spare. The last of the semi-final spots

:37:18. > :37:36.will be decided today, A great day yesterday at the

:37:37. > :37:42.triathlon in Leeds. The Brownlees Brothers. You were there. I'm still

:37:43. > :37:45.a little bit excited. I didn't have much sleep last night because I was

:37:46. > :37:50.dreaming about the triathlon which is a bit sad but it was fantastic.

:37:51. > :37:54.The atmosphere was amazing. Johnny and Alistair were... And then,

:37:55. > :37:58.Johnny came out first in this wind and Alastair caught up later --

:37:59. > :38:06.caught up. Completely dominated on the bike.

:38:07. > :38:08.Alastair Brownlee beat his brother Jonny to victory

:38:09. > :38:10.in the World Triathlon Series in their home town.

:38:11. > :38:13.It was their first race together since Alistair carried Jonny over

:38:14. > :38:15.the line in last year's finale in Mexico.

:38:16. > :38:18.Johnny came out those in the swimming and Alastair

:38:19. > :38:21.caught him out and on the back leg, they were over

:38:22. > :38:23.Where was everybody else behind them?

:38:24. > :38:30.She helped her sister who wasn't well. Her run-up was like that.

:38:31. > :38:35.That's why she hadn't been feeling well in the run-up to the race. But

:38:36. > :38:41.she still decided to go ahead. They are all beasts. Alistair Brownlee

:38:42. > :38:45.and Jonny Brownlee. Incredible. It is a fantastic sport to watch.

:38:46. > :38:51.Fantastic for them to win in their home city. Is there a new generation

:38:52. > :38:56.of triathletes coming through? I met them. They were all out there. There

:38:57. > :39:00.was so much going on over the weekend. There really is a strong

:39:01. > :39:03.team. It's fantastic. I know I'm biased.

:39:04. > :39:06.England's women were beaten by the Netherlands in their hockey

:39:07. > :39:10.The Dutch are the world's number one team and they went 2-0

:39:11. > :39:12.ahead before Sophie Bray brought England level.

:39:13. > :39:15.It went to penalties - and there was some revenge

:39:16. > :39:18.for the Netherland's, who lost in a shoot out to TeamGB

:39:19. > :39:24.in last year's Olympic final in Rio.

:39:25. > :39:27.In their very first season, Wasps have won the Netball Super

:39:56. > :39:59.I had my first win here ten years ago so to repeat it this weekend

:40:00. > :40:02.is incredibly special and I really have to thank my team

:40:03. > :40:10.The guys back at the factory have worked so hard to really fix

:40:11. > :40:13.what we had in the last race to bring it here.

:40:14. > :40:20.It is great to see new young broadcasters coming through. Yes,

:40:21. > :40:25.that is Sir Patrick Stewart. The world famous Hollywood actor. Great,

:40:26. > :40:31.isn't it? They always put a bit of Stardust at the Grand Prix. A lot of

:40:32. > :40:35.famous people do the closing interview. Sir Patrick Stewart was

:40:36. > :40:40.obviously enjoying every moment. Lucky him.

:40:41. > :40:48.The first poll of business leaders since the election result had

:40:49. > :40:52.revealed a uncertainty having a negative impact on the economy as

:40:53. > :40:58.well is delaying the crucial Brexit negotiations. It is looking busy in

:40:59. > :41:03.the city at the moment, isn't it? Business as usual here. You can just

:41:04. > :41:07.see. I am in front of the Bank of England and the famous London

:41:08. > :41:11.landmarks in the heart of the city of London, the financial district,

:41:12. > :41:15.where lots of people are trying to work out and will be for the

:41:16. > :41:19.foreseeable, what does all this political uncertainty mean for them?

:41:20. > :41:24.What that mean for businesses the economy and as you said, there have

:41:25. > :41:28.been talking to 700 businesses across the country to ask them how

:41:29. > :41:32.they feel about it and a lot of them are saying the majority, about 65%,

:41:33. > :41:37.that they think it will have a negative effect on the economy. Lots

:41:38. > :41:41.of different things to think about when you are assessing what impact

:41:42. > :41:46.this could have. One of them being the currency markets and that

:41:47. > :41:52.reacted across today when the result came out on Friday. We saw it go

:41:53. > :41:55.from 150 data 130. A huge drop. Comparisons are relatively small and

:41:56. > :41:59.it has recovered again. The two elements you talked about when

:42:00. > :42:03.talking about business confidence, important. Money needs to be

:42:04. > :42:07.invested in the economy. If you are going to hold it back, it will be

:42:08. > :42:13.more difficult. Garner I will bring in Carolyn Fairburn from the CBI.

:42:14. > :42:18.--I will bring in Carolyn Fairburn. How do they feel about it now? Are

:42:19. > :42:22.they worried? Leigh uncertainty has gone up the Richter scale since last

:42:23. > :42:26.week. It really matters because it affects investment which is jobs for

:42:27. > :42:31.the future. They are looking for the economy to go right back

:42:32. > :42:36.centrestage. And for business activity participants, not just

:42:37. > :42:40.spectators in what we are seeing. When talk about uncertainty, there

:42:41. > :42:45.is always uncertainty. We have talked about this for over a year

:42:46. > :42:50.since Brexit. What can businesses do with this? There is a sense they

:42:51. > :42:54.have to get on with it. Businesses that do and they are really good at

:42:55. > :42:57.it. This is one of the reasons we have seen real resilience and

:42:58. > :43:02.investment has been continuing. When uncertainty reaches of such a level.

:43:03. > :43:07.You get pause beginning to be pressed. You just don't want to see

:43:08. > :43:11.that. It is time for a bit of a reset, a reset, a bit of a mindset

:43:12. > :43:15.change, to listen really well to what businesses need because it

:43:16. > :43:19.matters to all of us. It is what pays for the health service, it is

:43:20. > :43:23.what pays for salaries. It is a chance to put some of these

:43:24. > :43:28.questions about digital infrastructure, how we will build

:43:29. > :43:33.homes, how we will get better rail services and Brexit negotiations on

:43:34. > :43:38.track, right at the centre of the conversations we are having

:43:39. > :43:44.everyday. If you are the Prime Minister, what would you be doing

:43:45. > :43:48.for business? I will be going out there talking about how important

:43:49. > :43:52.the economy is in terms of quality of life, London and the regions

:43:53. > :43:56.everywhere, getting the Brexit negotiations onto a really positive

:43:57. > :44:00.track so we can see positive outcome on really good access to the single

:44:01. > :44:04.market and then it is all about action, action on the things that

:44:05. > :44:09.really matter like skills, housing, Digital, getting on with it. That is

:44:10. > :44:13.what will give us more confident with, as I say, business as

:44:14. > :44:19.participants, right in there, helping to set the problems with

:44:20. > :44:23.government, not just observe on the sidelines. Is not just about how

:44:24. > :44:26.businesses feel that the impact on things like the currency market.

:44:27. > :44:31.Justin was talking about things like a fall in the value of the pound.

:44:32. > :44:36.Just the impact of that because it is to be bad for businesses, isn't

:44:37. > :44:41.it? It depends on what kind of distant -- business you are. If you

:44:42. > :44:45.are an exporter, order books are looking great. Manufacturing is on

:44:46. > :44:49.the march is that is great but if you are an importer, that is tough.

:44:50. > :44:54.You see inflation starting to come through. That is another level of

:44:55. > :45:01.uncertainty where government has a role to play. Bringing stability and

:45:02. > :45:06.predictability where possible. We are still an economy that is largely

:45:07. > :45:10.driven by consumer spending is it is about how we feel as people out

:45:11. > :45:15.there spending as well, isn't it? There is our lot in that and we have

:45:16. > :45:19.seen consumers doing what they do best, they have carried on shopping

:45:20. > :45:23.and that is fantastic but we need to keep confidence going. The more that

:45:24. > :45:27.can be done to create a business environment that is encouraging our

:45:28. > :45:31.companies, encouraging consumers to feel confident and these are all the

:45:32. > :45:43.things that I think will make a real difference in this next stage.

:45:44. > :45:50.will be back in one-hour. It is so mad and busy here. Not even eight

:45:51. > :45:56.o'clock yet. It is exactly quarter to eight. I am your own personal

:45:57. > :46:04.time check. It's OK. We have had very little sleep, it is OK. Do not

:46:05. > :46:08.be terrified, it is quarter to eight. A reminder now of the top

:46:09. > :46:13.stories for you this morning. Theresa May will meet Conservative

:46:14. > :46:16.MPs and set out her case was staying on in Downing Street. The Prime

:46:17. > :46:19.Minister says a cabinet reshuffle has brought in talent from across

:46:20. > :46:25.the party. The new lineup includes Michael Gove is environment

:46:26. > :46:31.Secretary. I tell you what time it is, time for the weather with Carol.

:46:32. > :46:37.Good morning um Carol. Look at that. Look at those pollen levels. Good

:46:38. > :46:41.morning. We do have high levels of pollen this morning. As we go

:46:42. > :46:45.through most of this week they will be high or very high across much of

:46:46. > :46:49.the UK. As temperatures rise, especially in the middle of the

:46:50. > :46:53.week, the UV levels will be as high as they get in the UK across

:46:54. > :46:58.southern areas. This is the forecast for this week. Green and breeze at

:46:59. > :47:01.times and warmest conditions will be midweek. Low pressure dominates the

:47:02. > :47:05.weather at the moment. Weather fronts attached to it introducing

:47:06. > :47:09.some showers but if you look at the squeeze on those isobars on the

:47:10. > :47:12.chart you can tell it is going to be a breezy day, particularly windy

:47:13. > :47:15.this morning across central and southern Scotland and north-east

:47:16. > :47:19.England. A lot of cloud, quite a few showers, particularly in the north

:47:20. > :47:22.and west. Many of those will fade as we go through the course of the

:47:23. > :47:27.afternoon. The cloud cover we have will turn over and we will see some

:47:28. > :47:29.sunshine. At about afternoon across south-west England and Wales but

:47:30. > :47:34.generally across southern counties, there still will be glad around but

:47:35. > :47:38.it will be mostly dry and, at times, the sun will come out. Across

:47:39. > :47:42.England could see a couple showers pop over the Pennines but for

:47:43. > :47:45.north-east England, the wind eases and we will see sunshine. Sony or

:47:46. > :47:49.bright spells across Northern Ireland, the wind is in Scotland

:47:50. > :47:52.and, again, the north and west get the showers. The rest of Scotland,

:47:53. > :47:57.particularly in the east, there will be sunshine. Through the evening and

:47:58. > :48:01.overnight, we will start the season clear skies develop and there will

:48:02. > :48:04.be a lot of dry weather, some patchiness to and fog across

:48:05. > :48:08.southern counties and in the next set of weather fronts, we,

:48:09. > :48:12.introducing cloud and rain, initially across Northern Ireland

:48:13. > :48:16.and across north-west England Scotland and Wales. That is down to

:48:17. > :48:20.the said fronts. The space on the ice buzz tomorrow a much wider so

:48:21. > :48:23.will not be as windy. I pressured dominates the weather in the south

:48:24. > :48:27.so here you will be fairly settled. The temperature will continue to

:48:28. > :48:31.rise and we will see highs from about 23, 20 four Celsius. The rain

:48:32. > :48:34.coming in across Northern Ireland, Scotland north-west England in

:48:35. > :48:38.north-west Wales will turn showery, one of two showers getting ever to

:48:39. > :48:42.the east of England but they will be the rather than the rule. In between

:48:43. > :48:50.there will be so bright skies. Utter richer range about 18 in Aberdeen,

:48:51. > :48:56.19 in Cardiff but 23 as we are pushing towards the London area. On

:48:57. > :49:00.Wednesday, the warmest day of the week, particular in the south when

:49:01. > :49:03.temperatures will hit 2728. UV levels will be high in southern

:49:04. > :49:08.England especially along the south Coast. Highest level will be hate

:49:09. > :49:14.and that is what we will have. -- highest level will be eight.

:49:15. > :49:17.Temperatures very pleasant and we have a weather front or two is

:49:18. > :49:21.getting across Northern Ireland in north-western Scotland and that will

:49:22. > :49:28.introduce some splashes of rain. Thank you very much, Carol. 26 in

:49:29. > :49:31.London as well. We have an amazing story coming up right now. After

:49:32. > :49:38.being diagnosed with our counsellor in 2015, Ian was told he had two

:49:39. > :49:42.months to live. Two years at best. He was determined not to be

:49:43. > :49:46.defeated. Last month he made a dream a reality when he reached the summit

:49:47. > :49:51.of Mount Everest. It is thought is the first cancer patient actually do

:49:52. > :49:54.so. Proves anything possible in hopes of this story will inspire

:49:55. > :49:59.others to achieve their life goals. And, you probably guessed it, we are

:50:00. > :50:02.delighted to say he is with us on the sofa. Lovely to see you. I'm

:50:03. > :50:06.sure these pictures which you are familiar to you. Many years of

:50:07. > :50:10.watching and looking and now you can say you have been to the summit.

:50:11. > :50:15.Yeah. It is not a thing I would have thought of maybe a few months ago.

:50:16. > :50:19.Wonder the side, Tibet, slightly different but it has been an amazing

:50:20. > :50:25.story from start to finish. When you set out to do this money mental

:50:26. > :50:31.task, it is something for anybody to do, how what particular difficulties

:50:32. > :50:35.did you have as a cancer patient? On a personal level, not really discuss

:50:36. > :50:40.this, but there were energy levels. I am always ready for a nap and you

:50:41. > :50:44.do not get to sleep on Everest. And then there is the diet stopped I had

:50:45. > :50:48.a specific diet before I went and I knew I would have to change that and

:50:49. > :50:53.eat whatever I could get on Everest, sugar, all the food you are not

:50:54. > :50:57.meant to be eating if you want to be healthy. We can see some of the

:50:58. > :51:01.conditions you went through there. We saw your tent flapping around in

:51:02. > :51:04.the wind there. What were the conditions like and how demanding

:51:05. > :51:10.was to get to the top? It was an unusual year for weather and the

:51:11. > :51:15.wind was very strong. That was when my tent was destroyed and a lost my

:51:16. > :51:19.agreement on food. I got a few things out and then we had to

:51:20. > :51:23.evacuate the camp won an expedition was over. And then overnight that

:51:24. > :51:27.was mean a couple of guys who really to go back up. I begged and borrowed

:51:28. > :51:31.bits of equipment and food and a sleeping bag and got back up the

:51:32. > :51:36.next day. So you wake up in the early hours on the day, as it were,

:51:37. > :51:41.in the early hours of the morning and then what happens? When the tent

:51:42. > :51:47.was destroyed? No, when you are climbing to the summit. You get

:51:48. > :51:51.there late in the afternoon. You are meant to have a few hours and then

:51:52. > :51:57.you set off at about one o'clock in the morning. You do not get a lot of

:51:58. > :52:01.sleep, I had no sleep. It was surreal for me. I was focused on it.

:52:02. > :52:06.I cannot actually remember that much about it. People speak about flow

:52:07. > :52:11.state or being in the zone and that was what it was like for me. I had a

:52:12. > :52:16.problem with my feet for the first few hours were thought might lose a

:52:17. > :52:20.toe but then came back to life and I was happy at that point then I was

:52:21. > :52:23.now reached the summit because it is thought, yes! I am fine again! Five

:52:24. > :52:28.hours left and then having to turn back, that would have been horrible.

:52:29. > :52:33.At what point did you think Everest was a good idea? Something you could

:52:34. > :52:36.actually do? How far back you to go before you thought you know what, I

:52:37. > :52:40.am suffering from cancer, so what I will do is climb the tallest

:52:41. > :52:46.mountain on earth. It sounds stupid when you put it like that. I

:52:47. > :52:50.think... I was diagnosed, I got rid of the cancer and many have scans

:52:51. > :52:54.and I think was nervous about the scan. I had won the next day and

:52:55. > :52:58.this was, maybe, August of last year. It was the day before, I was

:52:59. > :53:03.walking back from the shop and full summaries reason I thought that if I

:53:04. > :53:07.am got diagnosed I will have to try. There are so many things in it. It

:53:08. > :53:12.was ludicrous. After a few weeks you get a solution to that problem and

:53:13. > :53:15.want to this problem so wasn't until this February that it became a

:53:16. > :53:20.serious thing. We did not have long to get going, which is probably a

:53:21. > :53:27.good thing in a way. We had a 10% plan and it worked out. Are you a

:53:28. > :53:32.climber? Yeah. ... No, I just went up there and had a go at it! I have

:53:33. > :53:37.done climbing before and have climbed in the Himalayas before. I

:53:38. > :53:41.know you had a tough time because the weather was not great when you

:53:42. > :53:47.the summit either, were you, and you were snow blinded? We ran out of

:53:48. > :53:51.windows to get up there. It was the last window of the season, a half

:53:52. > :53:55.window. We got up there and it was stormy with a lot of snow me and

:53:56. > :54:01.three other guys we were caught in that. It took us ten hours to get

:54:02. > :54:05.down, we were drained and exhausted, dehydrated and then we got snow

:54:06. > :54:10.blind so I had to come down from camps rewind. You won't see this

:54:11. > :54:16.programme, I don't think, but the man who helped me, he is a good buy.

:54:17. > :54:21.As a proud Sheffield Wednesday fan, we have pictures he reviewed placing

:54:22. > :54:31.a Sheffield United flag. Yes. This has been Photoshopped! Tellers that

:54:32. > :54:37.truth... -- tell us the truth. We started fundraising at the weekend

:54:38. > :54:46.and I got 60 by my friend. He asked the site and I said if you put a

:54:47. > :54:52.thousand pound in I will take a Sheffield United flag to the top.

:54:53. > :54:56.Then I got a screenshot, he had put the money Miedecke count. They

:54:57. > :55:00.supported this project so much, Sheffield United. Thank you very

:55:01. > :55:10.much. Was lovely to talk to you. We are still raising money. Claiming

:55:11. > :55:14.Everest for cancer. -- climbing Everest for cancer. Another like to

:55:15. > :55:24.wish one of the guys on expedition to get well soon. Just coming up to

:55:25. > :55:29.eight o'clock. Minster is coming your way is in a moment that first

:55:30. > :55:36.we are in Norwich this morning at the start of what we can describe as

:55:37. > :55:44.an emotional journey. Good morning. This 67-year-old Bedford O B is off

:55:45. > :55:48.on her way home. She is returning to the Shetland Islands where she has

:00:19. > :00:21.with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin. Theresa May prepares to face

:00:22. > :00:23.criticism of her election campaign and leadership style in a meeting

:00:24. > :00:26.with her own backbenchers. Her majority crumbles,

:00:27. > :00:28.her authority tumbles. Today, the Prime Minister has

:00:29. > :00:31.to explain to her MPs why We've also brought Downing Street

:01:17. > :01:17.what businesses think of the election result.

:01:18. > :01:21.Good morning. Research suggests that businesses are worried about what

:01:22. > :01:27.impact this political uncertainty will have it on the economy, and of

:01:28. > :01:30.course what it means for the important Brexit talks. We will be

:01:31. > :01:32.talking to business leaders here about their thoughts about all of

:02:19. > :02:20.out her case for staying on in Downing Street.

:02:21. > :02:23.The Prime Minister will also chair a meeting of her newly reshuffled

:02:24. > :02:26.Michael Gove, one of the driving forces behind Brexit,

:02:27. > :02:30.Mrs May is also still trying to secure a deal

:02:33. > :02:45.Back at the heart of government, Michael Gove's last regular

:02:46. > :02:52.appearances on this street were before to May became PM.

:02:53. > :02:54.She sacked her old opponent after the bruising EU

:02:57. > :02:59.The two men spectacularly fell out over the Tory

:03:05. > :03:11.calling for MPs to rally around Mrs May.

:03:12. > :03:19.Jeremy Corbyn did not win this election.

:03:20. > :03:21.It's absolutely right that she should go ahead,

:03:22. > :03:29.form a government and deliver on the priorities of the people.

:03:30. > :03:34.I'm going to be backing her, and absolutely everybody I'm

:03:35. > :03:36.talking to is going to be backing her as well.

:03:37. > :03:40.Mrs May's reshuffle sees Damian Green, an old friend

:03:41. > :03:42.of the Prime Minister, become first Secretary of State.

:03:43. > :03:59.taking a lower-ranking job in the Treasury.

:04:00. > :04:02.Other key figures are Jeremy Hunt and Liam Fox.

:04:03. > :04:09.Mrs May will hope the reshuffle, most notable for its lack

:04:10. > :04:13.She said last night she intends to stay in her job.

:04:14. > :04:16.I said during the election campaign that if re-elected,

:04:17. > :04:20.What I am doing now is actually getting on with the immediate job.

:04:21. > :04:23.I think that is what the public would expect.

:04:24. > :04:24.They want to see Government providing that

:04:25. > :04:27.But life without a majority the House of Commons

:04:28. > :04:31.The PM may have to wave goodbye to some of her policy plans.

:04:32. > :04:33.Today, she will meet with her own backbenchers,

:04:34. > :04:35.many of whom will be looking for reassurances.

:04:36. > :04:37.She now faces the challenge of starting Brexit talks

:04:38. > :04:41.with her authority weakened and her with her authority

:04:42. > :04:43.and her long-term future still in doubt.

:04:44. > :04:45.In a moment, we'll speak to our Ireland Correspondent

:04:46. > :04:48.But first Chris Mason is in Downing Street.

:04:49. > :04:51.Chris, it's been a tough few days for the Prime Minister,

:04:52. > :04:51.and potentially more trouble ahead today?

:04:52. > :04:57.What's happening today, good morning? Good to you, this was meant

:04:58. > :05:02.to be the proud moment when a new flock of Conservative MPs came to

:05:03. > :05:06.Westminster and Theresa May had a majority which would ensure she was

:05:07. > :05:11.the dominant political figure of her age. Instead, the opposite. She is

:05:12. > :05:15.diminished and weekend and bruised. Instead, having to explain to her

:05:16. > :05:20.colleagues how it was possible that an election that she called

:05:21. > :05:24.voluntarily could lead to her party going backwards. She wanted it to

:05:25. > :05:30.turbo-charge her authority. Instead, it acts as a wheel clamp on her

:05:31. > :05:34.future. So, in these discussions she has to decide what she can do to try

:05:35. > :05:38.and hold her government together. And it starts with this, a document

:05:39. > :05:42.I have waved around one breakfast like a rather a lot in the last

:05:43. > :05:46.couple of weeks, the Conservative manifesto. This was meant to be her

:05:47. > :05:48.proud sacred governing text Fulham next five years instead, in all

:05:49. > :06:15.likelihood, whole chapters will be Chris, there was confusion

:06:16. > :06:20.at the weekend about whether there is actually a deal in place

:06:21. > :06:22.with the DUP. Exit polls following the first

:06:23. > :08:01.round of France's parliamentary election suggest President Macron's

:08:02. > :08:04.new centrist party is on course Projections show La Republique en

:08:05. > :08:09.Marche and its MoDem ally look set to win up to 445 of the 577 seats

:08:10. > :08:13.in France's National Assembly. The final outcome will be decided

:08:14. > :08:22.in a run-off next Sunday. A woman's been arrested on suspicion

:08:23. > :08:26.of murder after a man was hit It happened in the city's Victoria

:08:27. > :08:31.Station at around 7:45pm last night. The man died at the scene,

:08:32. > :08:33.and a 31-year-old woman Both the White House

:08:34. > :08:38.and Downing Street have dismissed a report that Donald Trump wants

:08:39. > :08:41.to delay his proposed state visit to the UK until he has the support

:08:42. > :08:44.of the British public. An online petition was signed

:08:45. > :08:46.by nearly two million people, who wanted to block

:08:47. > :08:48.the American President's The opposition was inflamed

:08:49. > :08:52.by Mr Trump's criticism of London Mayor Sadiq Khan's

:08:53. > :08:54.response to the London Many children are confused

:08:55. > :09:05.about where their food comes from, In a survey of more than 5,000

:09:06. > :09:14.children between the ages of five and 16, some thought cheese comes

:09:15. > :09:17.from plants, tomatoes grow underground, and nearly a fifth

:09:18. > :09:19.of the very youngest thought fish The poll to healthy eating week

:09:20. > :09:30.threw up some surprising results. Around a quarter of all children

:09:31. > :09:37.thought strawberry jam could be included as one of their five-day

:09:38. > :09:40.portions of fruit and vegetables to a lot of people thought that

:09:41. > :09:42.fruit pastilles would count. There was a bit of confusion

:09:43. > :09:47.about where food came from. Do you know what fish

:09:48. > :10:27.fingers are made from? Do you know where cheese comes from?

:10:28. > :10:33.Not sure. It's made out of milk. Just under a quarter of five to

:10:34. > :10:36.seven-year-olds in the survey thought that prawns were plants and

:10:37. > :10:40.that chips were made from animals. The managing director of the British

:10:41. > :10:45.nutrition foundation said that schools and families could and

:10:46. > :10:46.should work together to educate children about making healthier

:10:47. > :11:04.choices. Some people say that cheese does

:11:05. > :11:06.grow on plants for some people if you're vegan! That's why we love

:11:07. > :11:09.Breakfast! When Theresa May made the surprise

:11:10. > :11:12.announcement in April that she'd be holding a general election,

:11:13. > :11:15.she said she was doing it to improve her negotiating

:11:16. > :11:16.position for Brexit. Before the election,

:11:17. > :11:18.the Conservatives were operating with a working majority of 17 seats

:11:19. > :11:28.in the House of Commons. They're still the largest party,

:11:29. > :11:38.but no longer hold a majority, ending up in a worse position

:11:39. > :11:41.than before the election. Instead, it was Labour

:11:42. > :11:43.who increased their number of seats. Talks are now underway

:11:44. > :11:45.with Northern Ireland's DUP for a deal that would see them

:11:46. > :11:47.support the Conservatives The Queen's Speech and the start

:11:48. > :11:52.of Brexit negotiations are both Let's speak now to Labour's Shadow

:11:53. > :11:56.Secretary for International Trade, Barry Gardiner, who joins

:11:57. > :12:06.us from Westminster. In a week's time Brexit negotiations

:12:07. > :12:10.talk. Are you going to try and undermine the negotiations? What's

:12:11. > :12:17.your position? No, look, absolutely not. We have been very clear that

:12:18. > :12:21.the British people spoke in the referendum. We will leave the

:12:22. > :12:26.European Union. What, of course, we want is to see the very best outcome

:12:27. > :12:32.and we will do everything to ensure that we get the best outcome. I

:12:33. > :12:38.think it's very interesting to see now that the complexion of the

:12:39. > :12:42.Cabinet has changed. The power dynamic within the Cabinet has

:12:43. > :12:44.changed and I think that's a very good thing for the Brexit

:12:45. > :12:50.negotiations because this idea that there could be an outcome which was

:12:51. > :12:56.to have no trade agreement with the European Union, the no deal option

:12:57. > :13:01.is clearly off the table with people like Philip Hammond really more in

:13:02. > :13:04.the ascendant. So, in essence, I can understand from what you're saying

:13:05. > :13:08.and correct me if I'm wrong, with regard to the Brexit negotiations

:13:09. > :13:13.you will back the Prime Minister? Well, look, it's not a question of

:13:14. > :13:22.backing the Prime Minister. It's a question of ensuring making sure

:13:23. > :13:24.that Parliament is able to get the very best outcome negotiated on

:13:25. > :13:27.behalf of the people of this country. That means leaving the

:13:28. > :13:31.European Union, but doing so in a way that doesn't damage jobs. That

:13:32. > :13:38.doesn't damage our economy. And that has been the great fear that we've

:13:39. > :13:43.had because of course, the Government was prepared to do a no

:13:44. > :13:48.deal. They were prepared to go on to World Trade Organisation rules to

:13:49. > :13:51.increase the additional burdens and barriers that would have meant for

:13:52. > :13:57.our companies trying to export into the European Union. I'm pleased that

:13:58. > :14:02.that prospect seems to have receded because Theresa May has lost the

:14:03. > :14:09.power and influence that she might have expected to have as Prime

:14:10. > :14:11.Minister through running such a disastrous campaign and having gone

:14:12. > :14:17.to the country to say that she wanted to get a mandate to negotiate

:14:18. > :14:21.a stronger position, she has ended up in a weaker position, but in a

:14:22. > :14:26.sense that's good for the country because it means that other voices

:14:27. > :14:39.in the Conservative Party are now in the ascendant.

:14:40. > :14:44.Jeremy Corbyn said that an alternative Queen's Speech will be

:14:45. > :14:49.brought. The Queen's Speech is about all of the programme for Government

:14:50. > :14:54.that we put forward in our manifesto and that was so deeply popular. I

:14:55. > :15:01.think what will be very interesting is to see whether in the Queen's

:15:02. > :15:04.Speech the Government has now dropped its appalling manifesto

:15:05. > :15:09.commitments to end the triple-lock, to take away people's houses when

:15:10. > :15:12.they're receiving care in their homes, I think these are all the

:15:13. > :15:15.elements that it will be very interesting to see what the

:15:16. > :15:20.Government's Queen's Speech looks like. I'm very confident about what

:15:21. > :15:23.ours will look like. It will be talking about the popular things

:15:24. > :15:26.that we had in our manifesto and that clearly were so attractive to

:15:27. > :15:28.many people in the country. So you're going to put it before

:15:29. > :15:35.Parliament. What do you expect to happen then? Well, I think, what we

:15:36. > :15:40.will be doing constantly over this next period in Parliament is

:15:41. > :15:47.challenging the Government to do the right thing. Challenging the

:15:48. > :15:52.Government to show that actually more austerity is not going to grow

:15:53. > :15:57.our economy and of course, the vital thing for everyone now is that we do

:15:58. > :16:03.grow our economy, that we're able to trade our way out of our present

:16:04. > :16:07.situation and grow the economy so that it's good for jobs, it's good

:16:08. > :16:13.for business. It's good for people and that's the way that we develop a

:16:14. > :16:17.stronger country, but we do that by valuing people, by valuing our

:16:18. > :16:22.public services and making sure that actually money is in the pockets of

:16:23. > :16:26.those who are most likely to spend it and therefore, to give business

:16:27. > :16:29.that shot in the arm that it needs to grow the economy. Will you try

:16:30. > :16:34.and vote down the Government's own Queen's Speech? Look, it would be

:16:35. > :16:38.premature for anyone to say that they will vote against something

:16:39. > :16:45.without having seen it. So let's see what the Government brings forward.

:16:46. > :16:48.But I imagine that if they stick to their manifesto commitments then it

:16:49. > :16:51.would be something that we, of course, would find it very difficult

:16:52. > :16:55.to support. Let's talk about Jeremy Corbyn.

:16:56. > :17:01.There is some members of the Labour Party talking about Jeremy Corbyn

:17:02. > :17:06.becoming Prime Minister. You're still 60 seats short of a majority.

:17:07. > :17:11.Is that talk not premature? Look, I think, what we have seen is an

:17:12. > :17:18.extraordinary change in the mood in the country from just seven weeks

:17:19. > :17:23.ago. At that point we were 24, 25 points adifficulty in the polls.

:17:24. > :17:28.We've come to neck and neck. 40% share of the vote. This is the

:17:29. > :17:33.largest and swiftest turn around in political fortunes that we have seen

:17:34. > :17:40.in the UK since Clement Attlee back in the 1940s. So I do think that we

:17:41. > :17:46.need to make sure that we recognise that. Now, what we will be doing in

:17:47. > :17:50.Parliament is putting forward the popular policies and trying to

:17:51. > :17:56.persuade the Government that these are things that are in the national

:17:57. > :18:00.interest. We want to do the best by the British people in every area,

:18:01. > :18:06.whether it's in education, whether it's in health, whether it's in

:18:07. > :18:10.business, whether it's in trade. All of these are areas where we have put

:18:11. > :18:14.forward imaginative policies that people want and need and we will be

:18:15. > :18:17.doing our best to persuade everyone in the House of Commons, in the new

:18:18. > :18:24.House of Commons, that it's important to get those through.

:18:25. > :18:28.Barry Gardiner, thank you for your time on Breakfast. In the next 20

:18:29. > :18:37.minutes, we will be speaking to David Davis, Secretary of State for

:18:38. > :18:38.Exiting the European Union. It's 8.18am and Carol can tell us

:18:39. > :18:47.about the weather. What we have is a little bit of

:18:48. > :18:50.rain. It will be breezy at times. We have got that today and the warmest

:18:51. > :18:55.weather will be midweek. We will have temperatures into the mid-or

:18:56. > :18:59.the high 20s in some parts of the UK, but pollen levels through this

:19:00. > :19:03.week will be high or very high and its grass pollen that's the

:19:04. > :19:06.prevalent one. So if you're aleshlgic to grass pollen bear that

:19:07. > :19:10.in mind. We have low pressure driving our weather. You can see

:19:11. > :19:14.from the squeeze on the isobars, it's breezy wherever you are, but

:19:15. > :19:19.particularly windy across central and Southern Scotland and northern

:19:20. > :19:22.England. Gusting to 40mph. On the satellite picture, you can see the

:19:23. > :19:25.extent of the cloud cover, but you will notice the ripples in the

:19:26. > :19:28.cloud. That's largely down to the wind. The wind will be a feature of

:19:29. > :19:31.weather for sometime across the north of the country, easing through

:19:32. > :19:35.the afternoon. We've got showers in the north and the west. Many of

:19:36. > :19:39.those away from Scotland will fade as we go through the day and the

:19:40. > :19:43.cloud will start to turn over. So we'll start to see sunny spells

:19:44. > :19:46.developing. For some, that process will start earlier than others and

:19:47. > :19:49.it will be a fine afternoon across south-west England and South Wales,

:19:50. > :19:52.southern counties, prone to high cloud at times, so it will be bright

:19:53. > :19:58.perhaps rather than sunny and temperatures getting up to 19, 20

:19:59. > :20:01.Celsius, possibly 21 Celsius. For northern England there are one or

:20:02. > :20:06.two showers left in the forecast. Some of them around the Penninesment

:20:07. > :20:10.for Northern Ireland, bright spells of sunshine and showers. The same

:20:11. > :20:13.for Scotland, bright spells, shine and showers. Most of the showers in

:20:14. > :20:16.the north and the west and wind continuing to ease. Now, there this

:20:17. > :20:24.evening and overnight, we'll start to see more clearance in the sky and

:20:25. > :20:29.there will be some patchy mist and fog falling across southern

:20:30. > :20:33.counties. At the same time a set of weather fronts will introduce

:20:34. > :20:36.thicker cloud and rain. You can see that quite nicely here on the chart.

:20:37. > :20:40.High pressure however starts to dominate the weather in the south.

:20:41. > :20:43.So things will settle down here. There will be more sunshine around

:20:44. > :20:47.and the tfr ture will also be higher. Meanwhile, all this rain

:20:48. > :20:51.coming in from the west will turn more showery in nature. As is the

:20:52. > :20:55.nature of showers, not all of us will see some of those and we will

:20:56. > :21:00.see brighter breaks developing too. Temperatures in the north tomorrow,

:21:01. > :21:03.14 to 18 Celsius. In the south, 23 Celsius, possibly 24 Celsius. By the

:21:04. > :21:06.time we get to Wednesday the temperature really starts to pick

:21:07. > :21:09.upment more especially in southern areas. This is where we will have

:21:10. > :21:12.the highest temperatures in the sunshine. It is feasible we could

:21:13. > :21:17.see 27 Celsius or 28 Celsius. Further north in the dry and sunnier

:21:18. > :21:20.conditions, we will have 20, 21, 22 Celsius, but there will be more

:21:21. > :21:23.cloud in the north and the north-west. Where we've got some

:21:24. > :21:28.rain, and it's also worth mentioning the UV levels. The UV levels at best

:21:29. > :21:34.in the UK tend to get up to eight. That's high for us. And on

:21:35. > :21:36.Wednesday, we will see eights across southern England and especially

:21:37. > :21:43.along the South Coast. If you're tempted to go to the beach, bear

:21:44. > :21:44.that in mind. What a lovely idea now you've suggested it Carol, thank you

:21:45. > :21:50.very much. We've been at Westminster so much

:21:51. > :21:53.over the past few weeks, we thought we'd bring

:21:54. > :22:04.Downing Street to us. Good morning. This is it, look at

:22:05. > :22:10.our little Number Ten set here this morning, complete, we have seen the

:22:11. > :22:15.real one with our fake stuffed version of Larry the cat. The

:22:16. > :22:19.knocker is real, but one of the reasons you can tell it's not a real

:22:20. > :22:23.door is that actually the proper Number Ten only opens from the

:22:24. > :22:27.inside out. There is not a keyhole on the real Number Ten. That's why

:22:28. > :22:32.you can rest assured this is our fake door. We are talking about the

:22:33. > :22:34.key issues that made us vote the way we did last week in the general

:22:35. > :22:37.election. We have a panel of voters and experts with us. Good morning,

:22:38. > :22:42.thank you for being part of the programme. I'm going to come to you

:22:43. > :22:48.first if we can Alison. You're a small business owner. You voted

:22:49. > :22:52.Conservative last week. Yes. The issue we're going to talk about now

:22:53. > :22:56.is the issue of austerity. We have seen why it was so important to so

:22:57. > :23:01.many people. Was that key for you last week when you put your cross in

:23:02. > :23:09.the box? I think for me one of the main deciding factors, obviously I'm

:23:10. > :23:12.Scottish. I was brought up Labour. I'm new Conservative rather than

:23:13. > :23:16.silver spoon Conservative. For me it has always been the party for small

:23:17. > :23:21.businesses. So as a small business owner that's why my focus went. We

:23:22. > :23:26.worked with David Cameron's Government. For me it was an easy

:23:27. > :23:33.decision. But something happened the week before when they were doing the

:23:34. > :23:37.hustings. They did the live poll and for the first time I think in their

:23:38. > :23:44.history, Conservative didn't come out on top. So, there was a bit of

:23:45. > :23:47.an article yesterday in The Mail on Sunday from Vicky Owen that even

:23:48. > :23:51.prior to the election Theresa May hadn't sold herself to small

:23:52. > :23:55.businesses and again I'm a sales trainer so it's always about selling

:23:56. > :23:59.yourself and the popularity. I think they kind of let themselves down

:24:00. > :24:03.because of the lack of support. We are the lifeblood of the UK economy.

:24:04. > :24:08.So, you know, keep us happy and we'll feed the NHS. We'll feed

:24:09. > :24:15.social housing, but if you don't get that bit right then we won't. We

:24:16. > :24:19.have Tom, the head of pensions at Hargreaves lands down. On that issue

:24:20. > :24:23.particularly that Alison was talking about there, Tom, of austerity, do

:24:24. > :24:27.you think now with that reduced majority that there will be a change

:24:28. > :24:30.to the Conservative policy on this issue particularly? I certainly

:24:31. > :24:34.think they will be making a calculation about their priorities

:24:35. > :24:36.and what they can put into their legislative programme and what

:24:37. > :24:40.Government Bills they can get through and we'll hear more about

:24:41. > :24:44.that next week and there is a lot of negotiating going on over the next

:24:45. > :24:51.few days on this particular I shall eye. The question -- issue. The

:24:52. > :25:01.question of Government borrowing will be one to watch. Or do they now

:25:02. > :25:04.accept this message that they have been sent by the electorate that

:25:05. > :25:08.says, "We've had enough of austerity. Spend more money. That's

:25:09. > :25:12.what we want from this Government." Of course, they will be keeping an

:25:13. > :25:17.eye on how this will play out if they have to go back to the country

:25:18. > :25:22.at some point in the next few years. Anna one of the man tras was Theresa

:25:23. > :25:28.May's jams, the just about managing. Did that not resonate? It is the

:25:29. > :25:31.case they weren't as successful in winning the traditional Labour

:25:32. > :25:34.heartland seats in the north and in the Midlands as they hoped to be and

:25:35. > :25:40.I think part of that was an element of distrust in the sense that if

:25:41. > :25:44.you're annoyed by austerity and you think your life could be better if

:25:45. > :25:47.Government invested more, a lot of people said we don't trust the

:25:48. > :25:52.Conservatives to do that for us so we'll go back to where we came from

:25:53. > :25:56.which is the Labour Party. I know, it's topsy-turvy, but the

:25:57. > :26:00.Conservatives did win the election, it was a reduced majority, but they

:26:01. > :26:03.won more seats than any other party. We have been talking about how

:26:04. > :26:07.austerity has been affecting other areas of the UK's community and

:26:08. > :26:11.markets as well, we've got the NHS and education represented here.

:26:12. > :26:15.Briefly, if we could, austerity, that issue for you as a teacher, has

:26:16. > :26:21.that been felt particularly for you in the profession? Education was

:26:22. > :26:26.talked about during the campaign. It has dropped off. We really need to

:26:27. > :26:30.bring it back to the table. Consider the decisions that headteachers and

:26:31. > :26:34.senior teachers are making in schools and the resources to ensure

:26:35. > :26:37.that a child has equal opportunities and equal life experiences and

:26:38. > :26:41.consider also teachers have been saying it for years, but listen to

:26:42. > :26:45.the parents and listen to what the parents are saying and really bring

:26:46. > :26:49.it back on to the table. Sarah, ten seconds if you can as a midwife in

:26:50. > :26:54.the NHS? It's so important to reinvest back into the services and

:26:55. > :26:57.also students. The fact that Labour were promising to bring the

:26:58. > :27:03.bursaries, that's huge. We need new midwives. We need new nurses. We

:27:04. > :27:08.need junior doctors. They have got to reinvest. You've got a future in

:27:09. > :27:12.telly. I asked you for ten seconds and you delivered. Now, it is time

:27:13. > :30:31.for the news, the travel and weather where you are this

:30:32. > :30:33.I'm back with the latest from the BBC London

:30:34. > :30:46.Hello, this is Breakfast with Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

:30:47. > :30:49.Theresa May will today meet backbench Conservative MPs and set

:30:50. > :30:52.out her case for staying on in Downing Street.

:30:53. > :30:55.The Prime Minister will also chair a meeting of her newly

:30:56. > :31:00.Michael Gove - one of the driving forces behind Brexit -

:31:01. > :31:09.Earlier the Shadow International Trade Secretary told this programme

:31:10. > :31:13.after the election result a hard Brexit could be less likely

:31:14. > :31:22.The complexion of the Cabinet has changed the power dynamic, within

:31:23. > :31:26.the Cabinet, and that is a very good thing for the Brexit negotiations

:31:27. > :31:32.because this idea that there could be an outcome which was to have no

:31:33. > :31:35.trade agreement with the European Union, the no deal option, is

:31:36. > :31:37.clearly now off the table with people like Philip Hammond much more

:31:38. > :31:42.in the ascendant. Let's talk to the Brexit

:31:43. > :31:50.secretary David Davis. You have had the weekend to reflect

:31:51. > :31:55.and to look at the results, what was the point of the general election,

:31:56. > :32:06.do you think now? A number of reasons, one of them, which affects

:32:07. > :32:10.me directly, we will have five years to carry out the negotiation, and

:32:11. > :32:17.had we continued on the old timetable we would've had to have

:32:18. > :32:20.that inside three years or when we had concluded it we would have been

:32:21. > :32:24.right on top of the general election which have given the advantage to

:32:25. > :32:28.the other side. It is one of those things, I don't like the outcome, I

:32:29. > :32:32.wish we had a stronger mandate, but that is where we are. It is

:32:33. > :32:38.difficult when you hear your voice backing your ear, I know that is

:32:39. > :32:44.difficult. You don't like the outcome. How is it going to change

:32:45. > :32:49.things for you and do you see that your hand is diminished? It clearly

:32:50. > :32:55.makes it more difficult, no two ways about it. The thing to understand,

:32:56. > :32:59.the fundamental central aim of trying to get a free trade agreement

:33:00. > :33:03.and customs agreement and a continuing agreement on and other

:33:04. > :33:07.matters, that is still in the interests of both sides. That

:33:08. > :33:14.doesn't change. That is what we are driving four, and frankly that is

:33:15. > :33:19.what I expect and intend will be the outcome of the end of the two years.

:33:20. > :33:24.This idea of deal or no deal, that is over? No, the point that has been

:33:25. > :33:30.made before by the Prime Minister and others including me, we can't

:33:31. > :33:35.allow those who want to punish us in the European Union to succeed so we

:33:36. > :33:39.won't take a deal which punishes us. If that were the outcome, and I

:33:40. > :33:47.don't think it will be, but if it was, the so-called no deal, the

:33:48. > :33:49.trade arrangement would be the outcome, and I'm afraid Barry

:33:50. > :33:54.Gardner is wrong about that, the so-called dynamics of the Cabinet

:33:55. > :33:58.had not changed materially. Philip Hammond and I have a meeting every

:33:59. > :34:03.single week to talk about this tragedy and he is a supporter of the

:34:04. > :34:08.stance as am I. From that perspective it doesn't make any

:34:09. > :34:16.difference. You don't agree with the term hard Brexit, I know, but is

:34:17. > :34:20.that over? This is the oddity of this, of course the election

:34:21. > :34:27.campaign, phrases get used, but even Keir Starmer, my opposite number on

:34:28. > :34:32.the Labour benches, when we put the White Paper in front of the House of

:34:33. > :34:37.Commons, he himself said this is not a hard Brexit. Those were his words.

:34:38. > :34:44.Because what we are seeking is the best possible trade deal. Ideally

:34:45. > :34:53.with no barriers and no carrots and no trade with friction so that is

:34:54. > :34:58.not hard Brexit by any measure. -- no tariffs. But this is a

:34:59. > :35:02.negotiation and we have got to go through this, to make it clear to

:35:03. > :35:06.the other side there are up size and downsides, and we are going to play

:35:07. > :35:10.very hard to get the best outcome. The first thing we are going to talk

:35:11. > :35:17.about is European citizens, the status of them. In Britain and the

:35:18. > :35:20.status of British citizens in Europe and that will be a very

:35:21. > :35:23.constructive, I hope, very straightforward negotiation because

:35:24. > :35:27.we both want the same thing, broadly, although there are details

:35:28. > :35:31.of difference. So it is not hard Brexit, this is the best Brexit, the

:35:32. > :35:37.constructor Brexit, call it what you like. -- constructive. The aim is to

:35:38. > :35:41.get the best deal for Britain. Is the Prime Minister diminished? No.

:35:42. > :35:47.Although after an election in which we did not do as well as we wanted,

:35:48. > :35:51.it is a difficult time, but she is a very good Prime Minister. I've

:35:52. > :35:54.served under her for about ten months and I've seen other prime

:35:55. > :35:58.ministers in operation and she is formidable. She is a good

:35:59. > :36:03.decision-makers and she consults widely and she takes people's views

:36:04. > :36:07.on board and she looks at evidence. She takes her time but she is a very

:36:08. > :36:10.good decision-makers and that at the end of a day is the prime function

:36:11. > :36:20.of the Prime Minister. To run the country. Does she need to change her

:36:21. > :36:23.leadership style? When you have a finely balanced parliament like

:36:24. > :36:29.this, you have to be very careful about making sure that you carry

:36:30. > :36:34.everybody with you. That may change, the party's style slightly, but she

:36:35. > :36:38.was probably the Prime Minister of modern times who has played most

:36:39. > :36:43.attention to Cabinet and the most attention to the complete... All

:36:44. > :36:47.views, the range of views that she hears, before she takes decisions.

:36:48. > :36:52.There are other prime ministers in the not so distant history, Tony

:36:53. > :37:00.Blair in particular, who did not do that at all, he famously introduced

:37:01. > :37:05.a different style. Are you comfortable with doing deals with

:37:06. > :37:12.the DUP? We have been given a an instruction by the British people,

:37:13. > :37:15.effectively, given a hand of cards, as it were, which we have to operate

:37:16. > :37:24.to the best interests of the United Kingdom. And what we intend to do is

:37:25. > :37:30.to govern in that interest and to do so we are striking a deal, and you

:37:31. > :37:36.are not going to see... We are not going to become the DUP and take on

:37:37. > :37:39.their policies and views, at all. What we are going to do is negotiate

:37:40. > :37:44.to make sure that the things we can get support for get through the

:37:45. > :37:46.House of Commons and as a result the government runs the country in the

:37:47. > :37:50.best interests of every member of the United Kingdom. David Davis,

:37:51. > :37:57.Brexit secretary, thanks for joining us. This and now to the other news.

:37:58. > :37:59.Detectives investigating the London Bridge attack have made

:38:00. > :38:05.A 19-year-old man was detained in Barking on suspicion of terrorism

:38:06. > :38:06.offences shortly before 10pm last night.

:38:07. > :38:14.Exit polls following the first round of France's parliamentary

:38:15. > :38:17.election suggest President Macron's new centrist party is on course

:38:18. > :38:28.Projections show La Republique en Marche and its MoDem ally look set

:38:29. > :38:32.to win up to 445 of the 577 seats in France's National Assembly.

:38:33. > :38:38.The final outcome will be decided in a run-off next Sunday.

:38:39. > :38:41.A woman's been arrested on suspicion of murder, after a man was hit

:38:42. > :38:48.It happened in the city's Victoria Station at around 745pm last night.

:38:49. > :38:51.The man died at the scene, and a 31-year-old woman

:38:52. > :38:57.Nearly five months after President Trump

:38:58. > :38:59.took office, his wife, Melania, and son Barron,

:39:00. > :39:04.They had stayed behind in New York so 11 year-old Barron

:39:05. > :39:10.The First Lady is the first in modern times not to move straight

:39:11. > :39:13.in, but she's tweeted that she is looking forward

:39:14. > :39:17.to the memories the family will make in their new home.

:39:18. > :39:23.And probably enjoying the view, as well, judging from that photograph.

:39:24. > :39:24.Still to come on Breakfast this morning.

:39:25. > :39:27.We've brought No 10 to Salford - complete with Larry

:39:28. > :39:32.the Downing Street cat - we'll be finding out what drove

:39:33. > :39:35.Britain to vote the way it did and where we go from here.

:39:36. > :39:38.After the value of the pound fell in the wake of the election,

:39:39. > :39:41.we'll be in the City of London asking what the political

:39:42. > :39:43.uncertainty will mean for the British economy.

:39:44. > :39:46.And this coach was a much loved lifeline to hundreds of Shetland

:39:47. > :39:50.We'll see it begin the long emotional journey home

:39:51. > :40:04.Now we are going to catch up with the latest sport and there was so

:40:05. > :40:08.much going on over the weekend. It has been a very busy weekend. Very

:40:09. > :40:13.difficult to decide what we are going to start with, but we are

:40:14. > :40:17.going to start with Wales. This time last year, even those without any

:40:18. > :40:18.Welsh heritage were claiming it. Because they were doing rather well

:40:19. > :40:22.in the Euros. Wales manager Chris Coleman thinks

:40:23. > :40:25.they need to win all four of their remaining World Cup

:40:26. > :40:28.qualifiers if they're to make sure A penalty from Aaron Ramsey

:40:29. > :40:31.gave them the lead But the home side equalised,

:40:32. > :40:36.leaving Wales four points behind the group leaders,

:40:37. > :40:47.with four games left. We were looking to win it in the

:40:48. > :40:51.last ten minutes, once they equalised they huffed and puffed but

:40:52. > :40:56.we had three breakaways when it could have been different. But

:40:57. > :40:58.overall, good and tough game, two good teams, and the point is a good

:40:59. > :41:12.point for us. The Republic of Ireland are still in

:41:13. > :41:13.second place thanks to the late equaliser from Jonathan Walters in

:41:14. > :41:17.the 1-1 draw with Austria. For the first time since 1966,

:41:18. > :41:20.an England national football team The U20s beat Venezuela 1-0

:41:21. > :41:25.in the final in South Korea. Everton's Dominic

:41:26. > :41:28.Calvert-Lewin with the goal. It was a nervy

:41:29. > :41:33.ending for England. They needed keeper Freddie

:41:34. > :41:35.Woodman to save a penalty And the national side's senior

:41:36. > :41:47.manager believes this Clearly, ultimately the aim is that

:41:48. > :41:50.those players come through to the seniors and a big part of that is

:41:51. > :41:56.for them to get opportunities with their clubs because I think they

:41:57. > :42:00.have shown, if at this level we were champions, there are enough players

:42:01. > :42:04.there to have careers in the game without clubs looking elsewhere.

:42:05. > :42:08.Rafael Nadal said he thought he'd be fishing on his boat by now,

:42:09. > :42:13.not winning a Grand Slam for a record tenth time.

:42:14. > :42:17.He cruised past Stan Wawrinka in straight sets in the French Open

:42:18. > :42:20.final to take his 15th major title, and he thinks one of his best,

:42:21. > :42:29.Here was a familiar sight in Leeds - but still a thrilling one -

:42:30. > :42:32.when for the second year in a row, double Olympic Champion

:42:33. > :42:34.Alastair Brownlee beat his brother Jonny to victory

:42:35. > :42:36.in the World Triathlon Series in their home town.

:42:37. > :42:38.Bermuda's Flora Duffy won the women's race

:42:39. > :42:41.and there was a World Series personal best for Jessica Learmonth,

:42:42. > :42:49.She dropped back on the bike leg to help Non Stanford,

:42:50. > :43:04.Great performance on the Brownlee brothers. -- from. They also got

:43:05. > :43:12.first, second, third and fifth, so they are in very rude health in the

:43:13. > :43:15.British triathlon. STUDIO: Leeds was fantastic yesterday, as well, the

:43:16. > :43:21.city came to light. Very exciting to watch. Transitions can be very

:43:22. > :43:27.stressful for the athletes, did you have a chat? No, there was no time,

:43:28. > :43:31.they are so quick, and multitasking in a way in which is incredible to

:43:32. > :43:36.watch. They are just something else come of the Brownlee brothers.

:43:37. > :43:43.Stanford did very well, as well. Very hard. I thought that was the

:43:44. > :43:47.end of my sport. No, you can carry on. I will talk about the triathlon

:43:48. > :43:49.all-day! Lewis Hamilton's Formula 1 title

:43:50. > :43:52.challenge is back on track after he won the

:43:53. > :43:54.Canadian Grand Prix. He led from start to finish

:43:55. > :43:57.in Montreal to take the chequered flag there for the sixth time

:43:58. > :44:00.and cut Sebastian Vettel's championship lead to 12 points,

:44:01. > :44:11.after he could only finish fourth. My first win here ten years ago, and

:44:12. > :44:14.so to repeat it this weekend is incredibly special. I have to thank

:44:15. > :44:18.my team who made this possible, the guys in the factory who have fixed

:44:19. > :44:20.what we had in the last race to bring it here.

:44:21. > :44:30.That really is the end of the sport. That was Sir Patrick Stewart, as

:44:31. > :44:34.well, if anybody was confused. We will see you tomorrow.

:44:35. > :44:36.When Theresa May was perceived to have made a U-turn

:44:37. > :44:39.on her plans for social care, the momentum of the election

:44:40. > :44:44.Both the Conservatives and Labour targeted undecided older voters.

:44:45. > :44:47.Dan is at our mock Downing Street to find out whether the plans

:44:48. > :44:56.It is not quite life-size, though, and the cat isn't real! Good

:44:57. > :45:00.morning. Good morning, not quite life-size,

:45:01. > :45:04.normally... I could probably go underneath the door but I don't

:45:05. > :45:07.quite fit but it looks good. And our little fake Larry the cat which so

:45:08. > :45:13.many viewers have been enjoying this morning. Radio five live were using

:45:14. > :45:16.this for their election coverage and we borrowed it this morning to talk

:45:17. > :45:19.about some of the key issues and try to get to the bottom of why we voted

:45:20. > :45:23.the way we did last week in the general election. Another panel of

:45:24. > :45:26.voters and experts are with us. We've looked at the issue of

:45:27. > :45:31.austerity already, and we are trying to get to the bottom of the youth

:45:32. > :45:35.vote and why, as some people are claiming, 75% of 18-25 -year-olds

:45:36. > :45:38.voted in the general election. We have some more mature voters with us

:45:39. > :45:45.this morning. Thank you for joining us. , Frank, Lindsay and John.

:45:46. > :45:48.Frank, you voted Conservative last week. What were the key issues for

:45:49. > :45:54.you and what were you looking for when a manifesto 's first came out?

:45:55. > :45:58.The key issue for me, I voted Conservative this time because I did

:45:59. > :46:02.not have a choice of voting Ukip. I have voted Ukip for the last 12 or

:46:03. > :46:08.15 years because my biggest issue has been securing Brexit. I was

:46:09. > :46:14.quite happy the election was called. I thought it was a good strategy to

:46:15. > :46:18.try to get a tactical, larger mandate, I was happy to vote

:46:19. > :46:24.Conservative in order to achieve that but my God, she messed it up,

:46:25. > :46:29.didn't she? Do you lay the blame at Theresa May's door? Yes, I do,

:46:30. > :46:32.tactically, let's look at the grey vote. Traditionally, the

:46:33. > :46:38.Conservatives have always pandered to people of my sort of era. I think

:46:39. > :46:43.she thought with such a huge lead, that in this manifesto, maybe she

:46:44. > :46:49.could start to put things towards the older people that she could get

:46:50. > :46:54.away with and she hasn't got away with it. Lindsay, what were the

:46:55. > :47:01.deciding factors for you last week in the election? I have always voted

:47:02. > :47:04.Conservative, principally more for local issues because I know my local

:47:05. > :47:10.MP and I thought he would do good things for my community. I guess I

:47:11. > :47:14.just drifted that way. I did not feel I could vote for Jeremy Corbyn.

:47:15. > :47:20.I just couldn't vote for Jeremy Corbyn and that is why. John, you

:47:21. > :47:24.voted for Jeremy Corbyn? I voted Labour because I worry about the

:47:25. > :47:28.national health and the issues as you get older, you might need to use

:47:29. > :47:34.it more, and also, they keep on moving up the pension age so when do

:47:35. > :47:39.we retire? 65, 68? Will it be 70 or 75? You will be working forever, so

:47:40. > :47:43.it is clarifying where we are, and is it going to move around? Will

:47:44. > :47:48.they keep moving the goalposts? I voted Labour to give us some

:47:49. > :47:54.stability. I will come back on some policy specifics later, but Victoria

:47:55. > :47:56.is a politics lecturer from the University of Leeds and Tom McPhail

:47:57. > :47:59.has been with us all morning, head of pensions at Hargreaves Lansdown.

:48:00. > :48:03.Interesting to hear what our guests are saying about why they voted the

:48:04. > :48:07.way they did last week. It has been called dementia tax, rightly or

:48:08. > :48:11.wrongly but with a policy like that, Victoria, do you think that was a

:48:12. > :48:16.Conservative mistake and maybe they lost a bit of, as Frank was saying,

:48:17. > :48:20.the grey vote because of that particular policy? I think so, as

:48:21. > :48:23.Frank said, there was a sense that they relied upon it, they expected

:48:24. > :48:27.the grey vote to turn out but for a lot of very traditional Conservative

:48:28. > :48:31.voters, particularly those perhaps advancing in years, the idea of

:48:32. > :48:36.dementia tax or social care levy was deeply frightening and concerning.

:48:37. > :48:40.If you combine that with the issue of a double lock on pensions rather

:48:41. > :48:43.than a triple lock, you can begin to see why pensioners and people over

:48:44. > :48:45.the age of 50 began to think the goalposts were moving and they were

:48:46. > :48:49.not happy about it and looked somewhere else to go so the big

:48:50. > :48:54.question is, where else could they go? I suppose that sort of goes into

:48:55. > :48:58.the trust issue as well, Tom. It does and I think the basic

:48:59. > :49:02.principle, as Frank touched on, that we just heard, about putting the

:49:03. > :49:05.issues on the table, saying, we need to have a sensible conversation

:49:06. > :49:08.about social care and look at things like the triple lock and

:49:09. > :49:12.sustainability of it in the long and indeed the state pension age and we

:49:13. > :49:16.need to do with that, in principle, it was really good the Tories put

:49:17. > :49:20.all those questions on the table. But they made such a mess of it. And

:49:21. > :49:26.the failure to deal with it effectively left them exposed to

:49:27. > :49:30.criticism. The irony of it is that they are trying to make sensible,

:49:31. > :49:33.long-term policy decisions. The issues they were touching on,

:49:34. > :49:36.actually in the long term, we'll have more of an impact on the

:49:37. > :49:40.younger generations who are ultimately going to have to pay for

:49:41. > :49:43.all of the things I do have flocked to Jeremy Corbyn, who has been

:49:44. > :49:47.promising he will cap the state pension age, the triple lock, that

:49:48. > :49:50.he will throw money at this but in the end, the younger generations

:49:51. > :49:53.have to pay for that. It is interesting that we are talking

:49:54. > :49:58.about it, and this touches on what Frank was saying, the Conservatives

:49:59. > :50:00.are still the party with by far the largest amount of seats but we are

:50:01. > :50:05.talking about this because Theresa May went into the election expecting

:50:06. > :50:10.an increased majority. How do you three feel about working to the age

:50:11. > :50:14.of 70? I can see you are smiling, John. We just have to get used to

:50:15. > :50:18.it, we are going to have to work forever, really. It is when you get

:50:19. > :50:22.your pension, what age will it be? Some people thought they would

:50:23. > :50:25.retire at 65, probably made provision for that but have been

:50:26. > :50:31.told they have to work longer now. Is it fair? That you can keep moving

:50:32. > :50:33.the age up? But like you say, the debate has to be had because

:50:34. > :50:37.everyone is living longer so it has to be on the table but it has to be

:50:38. > :50:42.a sensible discussion, doesn't it? Do we keep moving it up? Lindsay, do

:50:43. > :50:46.you think people of your generation understand that as John was saying,

:50:47. > :50:49.there needs to be a sensible discussion? There does need to be a

:50:50. > :50:53.sensible discussion and I think pushing the retirement age to 70 is

:50:54. > :50:57.perhaps going a bit far just now because I don't think employers are

:50:58. > :51:03.ready to support older workers, quite frankly. I think that is a

:51:04. > :51:07.problem. I work with people aged between 50-64 who have chosen to

:51:08. > :51:10.leave work or be managed out of it early and a lot of these people are

:51:11. > :51:13.leaving because employers don't support them and they are not doing

:51:14. > :51:16.what they need to do, not giving them flexibility of employment, not

:51:17. > :51:19.trusting they can do their job well. I think there has to be a major

:51:20. > :51:25.shift in the attitudes of employers to actually aligning with people who

:51:26. > :51:31.are going to be working longer. I think 70 is a bit much. We are all

:51:32. > :51:36.healthier now and I think people who are over 50 and moving into their

:51:37. > :51:40.60s and 70s have far more energy. They are younger in their heads than

:51:41. > :51:44.previous generations. I think a lot of people will be able to work until

:51:45. > :51:46.they are 70 but a lot of people will struggle, particularly in

:51:47. > :51:51.industries, I'm thinking about the building trade, people who really

:51:52. > :51:56.have do physically work. I think if you sit in an office or you manage

:51:57. > :52:00.things, even a director, OK, 70, it can be managed but more manual

:52:01. > :52:03.workers, it is going to be really trust. Thank you for joining us.

:52:04. > :52:07.Really good for all of your views, to talk to you and get an insight

:52:08. > :52:10.into why you voted the way did. Two fax now to dazzle your friends with

:52:11. > :52:17.later, the real number ten, even though this is a fake one, did you

:52:18. > :52:20.know the front door was green for a few years at the start of the 20th

:52:21. > :52:25.century? I did! Did you know that the last prime resident of number

:52:26. > :52:30.ten back in the 1730s was a Mr chicken? I can see that is something

:52:31. > :52:34.that... Maybe I should get rid of that, never mention it again. Thanks

:52:35. > :52:37.very much for the moment, we will be back in a few minutes. But time for

:52:38. > :52:44.the weather. I'm sure you are interested in Mr chicken!

:52:45. > :52:49.Good morning, if you have a grass pollen allergy, levels are high or

:52:50. > :52:52.very high this morning, and it is for much of this week. Talking of

:52:53. > :52:55.this week, we are looking at a little rain at times, and we will

:52:56. > :52:59.also see breezy conditions at times but the warmest day looks like

:53:00. > :53:02.Wednesday, particularly so in the South. Today, low pressure is

:53:03. > :53:07.driving the weather. There's quite a tight squeeze on the ice bars,

:53:08. > :53:10.indicating a breezy day at windy across central and southern Scotland

:53:11. > :53:15.and North East England. The satellite shows you the cloud. But

:53:16. > :53:20.notice the ripple in the cloud. That is largely down to the wind. The

:53:21. > :53:23.breeze or the wind will be a noticeable feature, gusting about 40

:53:24. > :53:26.mph at the moment across central and southern Scotland and North East

:53:27. > :53:30.England. It will slowly eased through the day. Quite a few showers

:53:31. > :53:33.around this morning, especially across Scotland and northern

:53:34. > :53:36.England, one or two elsewhere but many of them will tend to fade and

:53:37. > :53:41.many of us will have a dry and pleasant afternoon. For South West

:53:42. > :53:44.England and South Wales, fair bit of sunshine this afternoon. You can see

:53:45. > :53:48.from the Midlands, into East Anglia and the south coast, areas of cloud,

:53:49. > :53:52.some of it high, so it will be bright rather than sunny, one or two

:53:53. > :53:56.showers across north-west England, hopping over the Pennines but in the

:53:57. > :54:00.north-east of England, the wind will ease and the sun will come out. For

:54:01. > :54:03.Northern Ireland and Scotland, bright, sunny spells and showers.

:54:04. > :54:07.Most of the showers in Scotland in the north and west and here, the

:54:08. > :54:11.wind coming down. This evening and overnight, cloud continuing to break

:54:12. > :54:14.with quite a lot of clear skies around. Some patchy mist and fog

:54:15. > :54:19.forming across southern and south-western parts of the UK. At

:54:20. > :54:22.the same time, a new set of fronts coming across Northern Ireland,

:54:23. > :54:33.western Scotland, north-west England and North Wales, to introduce rain,

:54:34. > :54:35.courtesy of this set of fronts. The isobars spacing tomorrow is much

:54:36. > :54:38.wider so not as breezy or windy, high pressure firmly in charge in

:54:39. > :54:40.the South which means things will be fairly quiet. Some sunshine and

:54:41. > :54:43.temperatures continuing to climb. As the band of rain moves from the West

:54:44. > :54:48.toward the north-east, you will find it will turn showery in nature.

:54:49. > :54:53.Temperatures between 14 and 18 here, and as we come south, between 19-23,

:54:54. > :54:58.possibly 24. About the time we get to Wednesday, -- by the time we get

:54:59. > :55:01.Wednesday, high pressure firmly ensconced in the south so lots of

:55:02. > :55:04.dry weather and a fair bit of sunshine. A bit more cloud further

:55:05. > :55:10.north but even so, some bright skies. In the north-west, still some

:55:11. > :55:16.fronts introducing some rain. Here, not quite as warm, 18. For Aberdeen,

:55:17. > :55:21.20, Newcastle, 21, Manchester, 22, shared by Cardiff and Norwich, and a

:55:22. > :55:26.top temperature is likely to be 26 or 27, maybe even 28 in the south

:55:27. > :55:30.but the UV levels will be high, the highest we tend to get in the UK is

:55:31. > :55:34.a UV level of eight and that is what it will be across parts of southern

:55:35. > :55:37.England, particularly the south coast so bearing in mind if you

:55:38. > :55:42.attempted to go to the beach. What a lovely idea!

:55:43. > :55:43.Some business leaders are concerned that the political

:55:44. > :55:45.uncertainty after the election could have a negative

:55:46. > :55:48.impact on the economy, according to a new poll.

:55:49. > :55:51.There are fears too that it could delay the impending Brexit talks.

:55:52. > :55:54.Steph is in the City of London for us.

:55:55. > :56:02.Good morning again. Good morning. Good morning,

:56:03. > :56:05.everyone. I am at Mansion house. You can see just behind me, the Bank of

:56:06. > :56:08.England with lots of people heading off to work. Really good people

:56:09. > :56:14.watching here, it is really good watching the world go by. I am sure

:56:15. > :56:18.lots of them will be thinking, "What is all this political uncertainty

:56:19. > :56:25.going to mean for me and my job, my business, for how much we pay for

:56:26. > :56:28.things in the shops?" Justin is with us and Claer Barrett, Justin, lots

:56:29. > :56:31.of ways this can impact our lives in terms of business uncertainty. It's

:56:32. > :56:35.hugely important because we have been really good at setting up new

:56:36. > :56:38.business in the country which is based on confidence. People set up a

:56:39. > :56:41.business, they can get finance and grow it. If you don't have

:56:42. > :56:44.confidence, in terms of setting up the businesses and your own personal

:56:45. > :56:48.Finance, that will hold up the economy and that is one of the big

:56:49. > :56:51.issues we are facing now. So people will hold back from investing but we

:56:52. > :56:56.have had uncertainty for so long, there's also a bit of tiredness

:56:57. > :57:00.about it, too. Last week, we seem to surpass ourselves, and we are

:57:01. > :57:03.sitting there thinking, "What on earth is happening now? It is like

:57:04. > :57:05.living in some kind of strange Jeffrey Archer noble you are unsure

:57:06. > :57:10.what will happen next and you can't make it up." But bear in mind, the

:57:11. > :57:13.UK Burmese doing well but slowing down and take confidence that the

:57:14. > :57:18.global economy is still doing a lot better than it was in 2008 when we

:57:19. > :57:21.had the crash. Claer, you and I have spoken in the last few years about

:57:22. > :57:25.the elections and the referendums, but what does it mean for real

:57:26. > :57:29.people out there who are going into the shops, going about their daily

:57:30. > :57:33.business? After the election result, we saw sterling falling in value.

:57:34. > :57:37.That has happened a lot since the first Brexit vote year ago. If you

:57:38. > :57:41.are going on holiday, that is when you will feel the biggest impact, if

:57:42. > :57:45.you want to buy 1000 euros, two years ago it would have been about

:57:46. > :57:48.?700, and today it is Nero ?900. When you leave the country, you find

:57:49. > :57:52.out how much the currency has dropped but then the prices of goods

:57:53. > :57:56.in the shops are going up as well, remember the four aurora over

:57:57. > :58:01.marmite awhile back? We can expect inflation to keep on creeping up and

:58:02. > :58:04.it is at a time when wages are stagnating or stop a big survey out

:58:05. > :58:08.today from Visa, showing last month that the first time in four years,

:58:09. > :58:13.people spend less. The amount we spend is going down which is

:58:14. > :58:16.worrying because the consumer is responsible, consumer spending, for

:58:17. > :58:20.nearly two thirds of the economy so we have to keep spending to keep

:58:21. > :58:23.Britain on track. Often people forget that, we talk a lot to

:58:24. > :58:28.manufacturers and things but they only make up a small proportion of

:58:29. > :58:31.what we actually do in the country. Exactly so the only ray of hope

:58:32. > :58:35.perhaps is that people over there in the Bank of England are unlikely to

:58:36. > :58:38.raise interest rates any time soon. Some economists, I heard one this

:58:39. > :58:42.morning saying he does not think there will be interest rate rise

:58:43. > :58:46.until 2019 which is incredible. If you have debts, whether it is

:58:47. > :58:50.mortgages or credit cards, move them to a cheaper provider, remortgage or

:58:51. > :58:55.find a 0% deal, and use the opportunity to pay down some of what

:58:56. > :58:59.you owe, so you will be in a better position going forward. Good advice,

:59:00. > :59:02.thank you very much. The last time Justin Urquhart Stewart was in the

:59:03. > :59:07.city with me a couple of days ago, you are abseiling down one of the

:59:08. > :59:10.buildings. Yes, for Cancer research. I was terrified and could not stand

:59:11. > :59:14.up when I got to the bottom but all in the good cause! Well done, you

:59:15. > :59:18.wouldn't catch me up there! Thank you for joining us. And that is it

:59:19. > :59:20.from me at the City of London, I will leave you with a lovely shot of

:59:21. > :59:24.the Bank of England in the background.

:59:25. > :59:26.We will try to look at it, it is mostly a bus but thank you. Really

:59:27. > :59:31.impressed by the abseiling! You might be about to battle

:59:32. > :59:34.through the Monday morning traffic, but it's unlikely your journey

:59:35. > :59:37.will be as epic as this one. Any minute now, a 67-year-old coach

:59:38. > :59:40.with a top speed of 40mph is setting off from Norwich

:59:41. > :59:42.to its original home That's a journey of 1200

:59:43. > :59:47.miles but it's a labour Fiona Lamdin is in

:59:48. > :59:59.Norwich to tell us more. Good morning. Good morning. Yes we

:00:00. > :00:04.are moments away from the start of this very emotional journey. These

:00:05. > :00:11.are the crowds gathering to waive the people off. I want to give you a

:00:12. > :00:16.very quick tour insight, this was a lifeline in the 50s and 60s and 70s,

:00:17. > :00:21.for the people of Shetland taking their children to school, you have

:00:22. > :00:28.the sunroof and the bell and the drivers air conditioning. The seeds

:00:29. > :00:34.are original. Yesterday I had a tour inside this great coach -- seats.

:00:35. > :00:38.This 1950s Bedford OB is finally on her way home and behind the wheel

:00:39. > :00:47.It was a pleasure driving a bus like this.

:00:48. > :00:51.For years, this pair were a lifeline to hundreds of islanders

:00:52. > :00:56.living on the Shetlands, delivering children to school,

:00:57. > :00:57.fishermen to their boats, even bringing groceries home

:00:58. > :01:02.And one of those children was Nettie Ridley.

:01:03. > :01:05.This is her first time on the bus for 50 years.

:01:06. > :01:10.Can you remember where you used to sit, Nettie?

:01:11. > :01:15.Sometimes, it was really quite nervous.

:01:16. > :01:19.You know, as I was starting secondary school.

:01:20. > :01:23.It was a big step to go on the bus with all the other big

:01:24. > :01:28.Back when I was four, we used to ride on it,

:01:29. > :01:31.to go to the Sunday school picnic, great excitement, a gang of friends

:01:32. > :01:34.going to the beach for the day and everybody's parents.

:01:35. > :01:38.It was a big adventure to go for a day out.

:01:39. > :01:43.In 1979, after many miles and many years of service,

:01:44. > :01:46.she was brought south, ending up in Norfolk

:01:47. > :01:49.for her retirement, where owner Nick Taylor has spent the last six

:01:50. > :01:56.But Nick is gifting his bus back to the island from where she came.

:01:57. > :02:03.And look after her, please. I will.

:02:04. > :02:06.And so, for the next 12 days, the team will travel 1200 miles

:02:07. > :02:18.It's their history, really, and that's where it should be.

:02:19. > :02:20.Sum up how you feel that it's coming home?

:02:21. > :02:36.Before she sets off, the Bishop of Norwich is here to bless her. Have

:02:37. > :02:40.you ever blessed a coach? I have done this to an ambulance, but

:02:41. > :02:45.essentially it is the people on this who are ready to travel who are at

:02:46. > :02:49.the heart of this. But as we prayed the towns and villages, through it

:02:50. > :02:52.we travel, bless the drivers and passengers and those who are waiting

:02:53. > :03:01.in Shetland to welcome her home, in the name of the Father and of the

:03:02. > :03:09.son and of the holy spirit, amen. We are. The coach is full, with the

:03:10. > :03:16.people ready to go. Quickly coming over to the driver,. Nick,

:03:17. > :03:27.last-minute nerves? Yes, especially with you filming the starting her.

:03:28. > :03:35.Go on, start, start. This is the Saturn -- Satnav. Where are you

:03:36. > :03:40.going? We are going to Gainsborough. We have 100 miles to go today. No

:03:41. > :03:45.time like the present. You are going to get it started? Yes, it should be

:03:46. > :03:53.fine. If I can show you one thing, we love this, the 1970s timetable,

:03:54. > :04:02.and we are going to Shetland, and if you see her, please waive. Take it

:04:03. > :04:09.away. Off we go. Where are we heading? Towards Aylsham. And then

:04:10. > :04:16.further up the coast, we are going to stop at hokum Hall for lunch. We

:04:17. > :04:20.are going along the North Norfolk coast to Hunstanton, to Kingsley,

:04:21. > :04:28.and then to Gainsborough where we are spending the first night. So far

:04:29. > :04:36.so good? Yes, so far, but we have only gone a few yards. Very good

:04:37. > :04:39.luck on their journey. If you see the coach, send a picture and we

:04:40. > :04:45.will put that on the Facebook page. Wonderful. We will be back in

:04:46. > :04:49.Downing Street with Larry the cat very shortly. Our makeshift Downing

:04:50. > :06:33.Street. What is he doing? that is all from me this morning. I

:06:34. > :06:34.will be back with the lunchtime news.

:06:35. > :06:51.Good morning. Welcome back. We are in our fabricated ten Downing St. We

:06:52. > :06:55.have found this set, well, we knew it was here, but we have been using

:06:56. > :07:01.this as warning to look at the key issues, the reasons that made you

:07:02. > :07:05.vote the way that you did last week in the general election -- this

:07:06. > :07:09.morning. We have looked at austerity and why young voters came out in

:07:10. > :07:14.such high numbers last week and we have spoken about the more mature

:07:15. > :07:17.voters, but now we are going to speak about the issue which is very

:07:18. > :07:21.high on the agenda, especially next week when Theresa May begins the

:07:22. > :07:28.Brexit negotiations, our future in the European Union. Good morning to

:07:29. > :07:34.everyone. You might recognise some of these faces from the Brexit

:07:35. > :07:41.panel. We will come to you very shortly. To the right end of the

:07:42. > :07:48.sofa, first of all, Brexit, that was the defining reason as to where you

:07:49. > :07:54.voted? Yes. Probably 90% of making up my mind was Brexit. Simply

:07:55. > :08:05.because it has its fingers in all the pies in British society. Every

:08:06. > :08:13.industry, my university, as well, it has EU social funding. And for me it

:08:14. > :08:18.is the biggest issue. Rachel? You are a farmer in Northumberland. Was

:08:19. > :08:27.it a deciding factor? What were your concerns? From my perspective, it

:08:28. > :08:30.was, completely. We are going to be exiting the EU and we have a British

:08:31. > :08:37.agricultural policy to form and that has been announced that Michael Gove

:08:38. > :08:40.is stepping in to the Department for environment, and rural affairs, and

:08:41. > :08:46.hopefully that will highlight that area as that is hugely important. I

:08:47. > :08:49.don't think it was discussed much in terms of the policy, especially on

:08:50. > :08:56.the Labour side, in terms of their manifesto. It is crucial, especially

:08:57. > :08:58.with things like the announcements this morning, chilled and not

:08:59. > :09:04.knowing where their food comes from, for example. -- children not

:09:05. > :09:08.knowing. As a farmer you must be banging your head against a brick

:09:09. > :09:12.wall, when you hear that some children think that fish fingers are

:09:13. > :09:20.made of chicken. Yes, and that they don't know where tomatoes grow. Are

:09:21. > :09:23.you concerned with the fragility of the position that Theresa May is in

:09:24. > :09:29.at the moment, that she might begin Brexit and someone else might take

:09:30. > :09:33.over the negotiations? As a chef, I have opened up my first restaurant,

:09:34. > :09:38.and it is all about produce, we try to use only the local ingredients

:09:39. > :09:44.and local vegetables. As Rachel said, it is all about the labelling.

:09:45. > :09:48.A big supplier will give me chicken which is packed in the EU, but I

:09:49. > :09:52.like to know where the chicken will grow and which farm, so it is good

:09:53. > :09:57.to use British and that is why I would like to have the internal laws

:09:58. > :10:00.so we can label and know which ingredients we can use and what we

:10:01. > :10:12.are actually eating in my restaurants. That is the number one

:10:13. > :10:16.reason why I will be happy with Brexit, but we will see what is can

:10:17. > :10:23.to happen. Still I would like to use seasonal and local. As a nurse

:10:24. > :10:27.working in the NHS, I suppose some in the Conservatives tried to make

:10:28. > :10:33.it the Brexit election, but was it about that for you? I was looking

:10:34. > :10:38.for a good debate about Europe, and I voted remained but I'm open to be

:10:39. > :10:45.persuaded if it will be good for us. We did not get any debate at all.

:10:46. > :10:49.The reason why I voted Labour in the end was that they were adamant they

:10:50. > :10:55.would make all European workers here, right to citizenship, which is

:10:56. > :10:59.what the health service needs. We have a shortage of 40,000 nurses in

:11:00. > :11:04.the NHS and we can't afford to lose any of them if they are deported or

:11:05. > :11:11.not made welcome. The other thing, I was expected... In Theresa May's run

:11:12. > :11:15.up, talking about one nation and bringing the nation together, but

:11:16. > :11:22.there was nothing about employment and the quality of jobs. Working in

:11:23. > :11:26.the gig economy, zero-hour contracts, not having access to

:11:27. > :11:30.pensions and two loans, that means you can't buy a house and you can't

:11:31. > :11:34.get a loan, and the younger population are becoming in no man's

:11:35. > :11:42.land in this country and that is wrong. Mike said he did not get the

:11:43. > :11:46.discussion he wanted. But it is here and it is happening and the

:11:47. > :11:54.negotiations begin excrete, so what position are we in going into those

:11:55. > :11:59.discussions? -- begin next week. Neither of the big parties wanted a

:12:00. > :12:03.debate about Brexit and that was no surprise, but I don't think this has

:12:04. > :12:07.affected her position in Brussels, because they have a negotiating

:12:08. > :12:11.position already. They just want someone to turn up so they can get

:12:12. > :12:16.this done. It doesn't weaken the UK hand? No, not in Brussels, but it is

:12:17. > :12:20.harder for the Prime Minister to work out what she is then to ask

:12:21. > :12:24.them for because she has a divided party and she has a minority

:12:25. > :12:37.government and she will be under pressure but -- she will be under

:12:38. > :12:43.pressure. For the young people who from the 18-25 age bracket voted,

:12:44. > :12:48.did Brexit play a part? There are many factors when it came to young

:12:49. > :12:52.people, and we feel that Brexit was one issue, but there was also the

:12:53. > :12:58.issue of having a country that appealed to them -- a candidate that

:12:59. > :13:01.appealed. They felt it showed if they participated, which they did,

:13:02. > :13:05.they would get some kind of change and difference, and see something

:13:06. > :13:10.happen, which they had maybe not seen before. You were part of the

:13:11. > :13:15.young voter panel, as well. We will finish with you. You mentioned about

:13:16. > :13:23.the decision made by young voters, what was your decision about Brexit?

:13:24. > :13:32.I voted remained. 70%, more than 70% of young people voted to remain. And

:13:33. > :13:37.I feel as if Theresa May not getting a majority means she has to

:13:38. > :13:42.compromise and I do believe... The previous election on Thursday was a

:13:43. > :13:47.rejection of her policies, from young people, and I did not vote

:13:48. > :13:50.Labour myself but many young people did and I think she has to

:13:51. > :14:00.compromise and take our views into compromise STUDIO: Into account.

:14:01. > :14:02.That is it for now. Thanks to all of our guests.
