This is BBC World News Today with me, Tom Donkin. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Great Britain will have a new Prime Minister on Wednesday. | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
Theresa May will take over after her last rival | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
After days of fighting in the capital of South Sudan, | :00:14. | :00:29. | |
that's left hundreds dead, the president and his rival | :00:30. | :00:31. | |
It's a hugely popular smart phone game, but is Pokemon Go | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
Portugal's football heroes celebrate in Lisbon after they beat France | :00:36. | :00:47. | |
The next British Prime Minister, Theresa May, will take up residence | :00:48. | :01:07. | |
in Downing Street within the next 48 hours, much earlier than expected. | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
He announced he was stepping down after British voters chose to LEAVE | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
the European Union in a historic referendum last month. | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
Although Mrs May also campaigned to stay in the EU, | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
she now says she'll honour the referendum result. | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
The sudden end to the Tory leadership contest came | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
when the only other candidate Andrea Leadsom, dropped out | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
It followed controversial remarks she'd made about Mrs May | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
David Cameron has been British prime minister for 6 years | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
and Conservative party leader for more than a decade. | :01:42. | :01:43. | |
His departure means Theresa May will now represent Britain | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
at the G20 summit in China in September. | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
Our Political Editor Laura Kuenssberg reports on another day | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
Our new Prime Minister, the Tories' new leader. | :01:54. | :02:10. | |
I am honoured and humbled to have been chosen by the Conservative | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
Party to become its leader. I would like to pay tribute to the other | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
candidates, during the election campaign, and I would like to page a | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
view to Andrea Leadsom for the dignity that she has shown today. -- | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
pay tribute. After the anger and arguments of the | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
referendum campaign and its brutal aftermath, even to make her party | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
work will be quite a feat. Brexit means Brexit, and we are | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
going to make a success of it. Second, we need to unite our | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
country, and third, we need a strong new, positive vision for the future | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
of our country. A vision of a country that works not for the | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
privileged few, but which works for everyone of us, because we're going | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
to give people more over their lives, and that is how, together, we | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
will build a better Britain. Thank you. | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
Theresa May's in, because she walked out. Just before 11 this morning, | :03:11. | :03:18. | |
the rumour mill began to well. Was Andrea Leadsom, the Eurosceptics' | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
darling, about to quit? The grim faces of her supporters confirmed | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
it. For me, personally, to have | :03:28. | :03:28. | |
won the support of 84 of my colleagues last Thursday was a great | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
expression of confidence for which I am incredibly grateful. | :03:33. | :03:42. | |
Nevertheless, this is less than 25% of the parliamentary body, and after | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
careful consideration, I do not believe this is sufficient support | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
to lead a strong and stable government should I when the | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
leadership election. -- should I win. I have, however, | :03:51. | :03:59. | |
concluded that the interests of our country are best served by the | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
immediate appointment of a strong and well supported Prime Minister. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
therefore withdrawing from the leadership election and I wish | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
Theresa May the very greatest success. | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
Why have you changed your mind,? There was disbelief in one of | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Westminster's impossibly immaculate sidestreets. | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
Why is she withdrawing? was third at her, especially after | :04:24. | :04:33. | |
she suggested in an interview that she would be a good Prime Minister, | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
partly because she has children and Theresa May does not. | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
113 told me simply, the abuse was too much. | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
With 199 MPs supporting would be in the best interest of the | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
country to say now that we should withdraw. | :04:53. | :04:52. | |
Has she been bullied out of it, then? That sounds | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
like what you are suggesting. I would not want to put it in those | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
terms. We face very sophisticated opponents in this contest, and they | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
carefully positioned her something she is not. If we continue, the | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
damage would be too great. The level of personal abuse that was | :05:09. | :05:09. | |
directed at her in the last few weeks and days | :05:10. | :05:10. | |
has been something which I have been rather | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
appalled about. Even if | :05:16. | :05:16. | |
Mrs me was the overwhelming favourite, we should have had a | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
contest, and therefore, I am disappointed. | :05:21. | :05:21. | |
I am sure Andrea has made this decision for very good, Patriot | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
agrees on is, uniting the body, those sorts of things. | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
But I can't help denying that I'm disappointed. | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
It is 12:20pm now. Andrea Leadsom was not | :05:32. | :05:39. | |
a decision to move out of the leadership race means | :05:40. | :05:40. | |
next few days, to reason me could be a Number ten. Next stop after this | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
melee, over to the Tory party machine to decide what happens to | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
the government next. And they did not waste any time. | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
Following the decision of Mrs Andrea Leadsom to withdraw from the | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
Conservative leadership contest, The Right Honourable Mrs Theresa May is | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
the only remaining candidates. | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
Could Theresa May be Prime Minister by the end of this week? | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
There is now an internal process and the constitutional progress to be | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
gone through. -- constitutional process. | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
In the space of less than half an hour, Andrea Leadsom has quit the | :06:15. | :06:15. | |
race, and the Tory party have confirmed Theresa May | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
will be the next Prime Minister. Are you looking at the faces of some of | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
Theresa May's new cabinet? Tory MPs who had given overwhelming support, | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
and who were ready for a new campaign for Number ten. But they | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
don't need it now. He won't spend a moment | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
longer than is polite in Downing Street before leaving for the final | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
time. With these changes, we now don't | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
need to have a prolonged period of transition, and so, tomorrow, I will | :06:43. | :06:43. | |
share my last Cabinet meeting, and on Wednesday, I will attend the | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
House of Commons for Prime Minister's | :06:50. | :06:49. | |
Questions, and then after that, I expect to go to the palace and offer | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
my resignation, so we will have a new Prime Minister in that building | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
behind me by Wednesday evening. Thank you very much. | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
Toulouse office must be painful, but perhaps with it, some light relief. | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
A home, a tune from the Prime Minister. | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
HE HUMS. We won't call him that for long. | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
What do we know about a reason me? She has held | :07:18. | :07:32. | |
the position of Home Secretary for six years. It is one of the hardest | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
jobs in British politics. She supported David Cameron in | :07:38. | :07:39. | |
campaigning for the UK to remain within the EU. As she repeatedly | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
expressed her opposition to the European Convention on Human Rights, | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
wishing Britain to leave it. She failed to | :07:49. | :07:49. | |
deliver on a Conservative election pledge to reduce migration to the UK | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
during her time as Home Secretary. That was a | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
key point in the referendum debate. She's seen by many commentators as | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
being strong enough to unite the ruling Conservative Party as well as | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
being experienced enough to represent Britain in the world | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
stage. She was widely praised in 2013 when she succeeded in finally | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
deporting the radical Muslim cleric Abu Qatada from the UK. That's total | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
our correspondent Rob Watson, who is in Westminster in central London | :08:19. | :08:19. | |
foreigners now. Let's speak to our correspondent | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
Rob Watson, who is in Westminster The UK has a new conservative | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
leader, soon to be Prime She was the most experienced | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
candidate, but is she the one to unite the party and country | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
as many are hoping? I certainly think she is the best | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
candidate for uniting the Conservative Party. 200 MPs, pretty | :08:37. | :08:37. | |
much come out of the 330 Conservative MPs voted for her, | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
so I think that really speak slowly is. I think that is why Andrea | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
Leadsom, her only rival, had dropped out in a way. Is she the right | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
person to unite the country? I guess the absolute honest answer, if | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
anyone was answering this question honestly, is, who knows? But what we | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
know is, the country is deeply divided. It is worth restating the | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
referendum had an electrifying effect on Britain. They revealed | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
that we were really two different countries, as we have said. Those | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
who voted Leave tend to think, at last, we are free of the European | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
Union. But 16 million people are thinking, oh, my goodness, what have | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
we done? So there is no doubt that Theresa May has a big, big challenge | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
ahead of her, both in the party, in the country, and, of course, in | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
dealing with the rest of the world. And the honeymoon period are | :09:33. | :09:33. | |
becoming Prime Minister might be short lived. | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
The first job she will have to do is go to Brussels and renegotiate | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
Britain's withdrawal from Europe? I think it could be short lived in two | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
regards. Firstly, a lot of economic forecasters think there may well be | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
a recession on its way in Britain as a result of the shock of leaving the | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
EU. So I think that may really lead to things souring at home here in | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
the UK. But absolutely, the negotiation with | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
the EU will not be easy. It will be curious to see whether | :10:04. | :10:04. | |
Theresa May mastermind it herself, or whether, | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
as many people think, she might actually give it to one of those | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
conservatives who campaigned so strongly for leave for two reasons. | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
Firstly, it is a way of saying to those in the Conservative Party who | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
were very much in favour of Brexit, look, I have put one of your own in | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
charge. But also, perhaps, to be saying, look, Leave campaigners have | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
made this mess. Let them clear it up. | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
So a degree of stability has returned to the Conservative Party, | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
but that is in stark contrast to what has happened to the opposition | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
Labour Party? Absolutely. If you think of | :10:41. | :10:51. | |
Brexit as having created this sort of earthquake across Britain. There | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
is a little bit of things settling back into place on the conservative | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
side. I don't want to overstate that. She has a huge task had of | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
her. But on the other side of the political spectrum, the opposition | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
Labour Party is in total turmoil. We now know there will | :11:03. | :11:03. | |
be a challenge to the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn, so what we are seeing | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
in Parliament, as we are having what | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
seems like a protracted and existential | :11:11. | :11:10. | |
in the opposition Labour Party about what should a left of centre, modern | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
European party be? proper Socialist party, as Jeremy | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
Corbyn would like, or something more moderate. All of that | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
out as we chart are way ahead in Brexit. | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
Many thanks. It has been a marathon day. Get some sleep, and we | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
will do it again tomorrow. Rob Watson | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
in central London on a dramatic day in British politics. | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
You can find out more about Theresa May and what her | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
leadership victory means for Britain on our website. | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
Yet again, that is on the screen. You can get all the information from | :11:43. | :11:51. | |
today. There is a live page still going, and there will be more to | :11:52. | :11:52. | |
come. Yet again, the leaders of South | :11:53. | :12:03. | |
Sudan have failed their people. That is the | :12:04. | :12:03. | |
verdict of the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, who in a rare | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
for an arms embargo on South Sudan. For the | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
days, gunfire and large explosions rocked the capital. Forces | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
loyal to the president and his deputy have killed more than 200 | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
people since Friday. Both men have called for an immediate ceasefire. | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
Explosions, gunfire and shelling could be heard sporadically | :12:26. | :12:26. | |
in Juba as forces loyal to the President Salva Kiir fought | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
against those who support the formal rebel leader and current vice | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
The US and UN have condemned attacks against their staff and civilians. | :12:36. | :12:46. | |
Chinese peacekeepers have taken several casualties as UN bases | :12:47. | :12:48. | |
hosting displaced people in the capital came under fire | :12:49. | :12:50. | |
prompting this stern message from the Security Council. | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
The Security Council members urge an immediate end to the fighting | :12:55. | :12:56. | |
by all concerned and demand that President Kiir and the first vice | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
president do their utmost to control their respective forces. | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
Questions have been raised over how much control the two leaders | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
The current violence erupted on Friday when their bodyguards | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
clashed outside as Kiir and Machar held a meeting. | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
They subsequently called for calm, but the city remains tense. | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
I call upon all our citizens not to panic but to go | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
Those who have vacated their homes should go back to their homes | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
The situation is normal and is under full control. | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
But civilians are choosing to hide where they are. | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
The streets and the sky remained too dangerous for now. | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
They can only hope that renewed mediation efforts | :13:49. | :13:50. | |
by their neighbours will bear fruit. | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
We have heard a conflict and reports of heavy gunfire. What are you | :13:54. | :14:25. | |
seeing, and where are you right now? Where we are located, we have been | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
hearing and also observing the heavy gunfire and | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
Today, there have been shelling around our clinic, and a number of | :14:34. | :15:06. | |
our patients have run away. Those who are critical have been | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
physically carried by our staff to another clinic. | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
I understand that you are in a compound there, a UN | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
compound. What are you hearing from your | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
superiors? Will you stay or evacuate, and is that the | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
We are evacuating our international staff. But we have had communication | :15:29. | :15:45. | |
with many of our international affiliates, and | :15:46. | :15:47. | |
soon as possible. Thank you very much. | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
That was live from the capital of South Sudan, Juba, despite ceasefire | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
is from the president and his deputy, there is still | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
gunfire. Now a look at some of | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
the day's other news. Opposition fighters in Syria | :16:06. | :16:07. | |
have launched an assault of government-held districts | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
in the northern city of Aleppo. The attack follows a failed attempt | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
to re-open the rebels' only supply Government forces have | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
responded with air strikes. The chief of police in Dallas, | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
Texas, has said he and his family have received death threats | :16:20. | :16:22. | |

troops in Poland and the Baltic states in response to Russia's | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
involvement in the conflict It's caused people to fall over | :16:59. | :17:00. | |
in the street, end up in hospital, and even led to the discovery | :17:01. | :17:09. | |
of a dead body. Now, in the latest of a series | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
of strange incidents surrounding the new smartphone game, | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
Pokemon Go, police in Missouri have warned that armed robbers | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
are using it to lure victims The game | :17:18. | :17:20. | |
uses GPS and what's known as augmented reality | :17:21. | :17:32. | |
to allow users to hunt Players have to walk | :17:33. | :17:34. | |
around their real-life neighbourhoods while looking | :17:35. | :17:37. | |
for virtual Pokemon characters Joining us from New York | :17:38. | :17:39. | |
to explain a little bit more about this is Jason Schreier, | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
news editor of the gaming Jason, just explain to us by people | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
are walking around the streets with their smartphones, and why this game | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
is so addictive? Everybody is playing Pokemon Go. It | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
is just about everywhere. I think it is addictive because everyone is | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
playing it, and people just love Pokemon. There is a whole nostalgia | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
effect. People think back to their childhoods of catching P as they | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
were growing up. Better days. Just give is a sense of these incidents | :18:12. | :18:14. | |
that are happening. It caused some people to leave their | :18:15. | :18:17. | |
homes and walk around, which is obviously a bit of a dangerous | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
activity when you are looking down your phone? | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
It can be. You have to be cautious, as with all things when you're | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
walking around outside, especially in strange neighbourhoods. There | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
have been some cases where thieves, armed thieves, in the States, there | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
was one case in Missouri where armed thieves found victims by going to | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
one of the Pokemon centres on the map and they, I guess, got people | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
who were going over there. So if you're going to go to these strange | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
locations, you have to be careful, as always. | :18:54. | :18:56. | |
Give as a sense of why this game is popular now? The Pokemon franchise | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
is at least 20 years old, so it's a kids' game, but has it lowered the | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
attractive younger market? I think it has. It just launched | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
last Thursday in the US, and before that in Japan. It lured the US | :19:11. | :19:18. | |
market for a couple of factors. A lot of adults are getting their kids | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
into it, and they used to play Pokemon growing up and are now | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
showing their kids. And there are new Pokemon games coming out. Not | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
every year, but every other year, and this new generation might have | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
gotten into Pokemon games by playing some of the new ones on three DS. | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
Will we see more of these kind of games? The big thing in aiming right | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
now is augmented reality and virtual reality, with all these new | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
technologies. Is this just the start of a new wave of gaming use periods | :19:47. | :19:48. | |
is? It could be, but you have to keep in | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
mind that not every other game is Pokemon. Most franchises don't have | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
the law and the Stelzer and the kind of widespread poke popularity are | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
Pokemon. Having said that, because of the massive popularity of this | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
thing, you will see a lot of companies trying to copy it and | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
maybe not doing it so well, because they don't have all the characters | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
that people love so much. For the creators, this is an amazing | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
week, because their start has gone sky high on the back of this? | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
It is crazy, it is unbelievable. I think Nintendo might be looking at | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
this and saying, what else can we do with this? Why didn't we suddenly | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
miss a long time ago? Thank you bring much, Jason. Take | :20:32. | :20:33. | |
care. The Portuguese national team has | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
arrived home in Lisbon as European Champions | :20:37. | :20:38. | |
after an historic 1-0 win over Tens of thousands of fans gathered | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
at the airport, in front of the presidential palace, | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
and on the streets to cheer the country's first major | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
international success. The Portugal squad were received as | :20:53. | :21:05. | |
conquering heroes from the moment their plane landed at Les Bonn | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
airport. This was, after all, the country's first senior Trophy in | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
international football. Almost every street in highway was lined with | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
cheering fans, and outside the palace, there were thousands more. | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
Portugal's president, addressing the players directly, hailed them as | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
real role models after the tough economic times the country has faced | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
in recent years. TRANSLATION: An example that shows | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
how to win with courage, determination, ability to fight, | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
humility, and team spirit. That is the difference, the difference | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
between yesterday and today, that today, we have more reasons, thanks | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
to you guys, to believe in Portugal. Long live Portugal! | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
The president had already announced that all the squad and staff would | :21:53. | :21:57. | |
be receiving state decorations, but, as he put it in his speech, the | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
biggest decoration for them is the gratitude of the Portuguese people. | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
They soon had the chance to express their gratitude, as the squad | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
resumed their now much slower open topped bus journey, this time to the | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
capital's largest fan zone. Portugal had been the underdogs on Sunday's | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
final, but some fans claimed to have foreseen the results, even the | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
winning goal. TRANSLATION: Surprise? Never! I knew | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
it, I knew it. I had already spoken to my friends, | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
and said, Eder will score. This is the cup. This is the cup. I knew it! | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
I bought this three or four years ago. I can see the future! | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
It was a surprise, and there was a bit of luck. | :22:46. | :22:47. | |
France played very well, Portugal also play very well, and deserved to | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
win. We showed that we could win, fighting until the end, until the | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
last minute when the match ended. Long live Portugal! Long-lived god! | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
In this small nation, population of just over 10 million, the | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
celebrations have the feel of a family party, albeit a very big one. | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
They are sure to continue for quite some time yet. | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
Well, it may have been ecstasy for Portuguese fans, | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
but it was utter devastation for French supporters. | :23:19. | :23:20. | |
It was all a bit much for this one French fan brought | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
But he found support from the unlikeliest of places. | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
A young Portuguese boy approaches the man, offering some comfort. | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
That's before the appreciative Frenchman bends down | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
These pictures have been shared widely on social media, | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
with many describing it as one of the tournament's most | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
Very good of the young man to come up and office and consolation. Now, | :23:46. | :23:59. | |
a reminder of our main news. Theresa May has become the next | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
British Prime Minister. She will do so on Wednesday, succeeding David | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
Cameron. The Home Secretary has been confirmed as the leader of the | :24:07. | :24:09. | |
Conservative Party after her only rival for the post pulled out. Mrs | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
May said she would bring strong leadership, needed to negotiate the | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
best terms for Britain to X at the European union, forge a new role for | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
the country, and in the world, and to unite the nation. My case has | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
been based on three things. First, the need for strong, proven | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
leadership. To steer us through what will be difficult and uncertain | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
economic and political times. They need, of course, to negotiate the | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
best deal for Britain in leaving the EU, and of course, to forge a new | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
role for ourselves in the world. Brexit means Brexit, and we are | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
going to make a success of it. Second, we need to unite our | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
country, and third, we need a strong, new, positive vision for the | :24:54. | :25:00. | |
future of our country, a vision of a country that works not for the | :25:01. | :25:03. | |
privileged few, but that works for everyone of us, because we are going | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
to give people more control over their lives. That is how, together, | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
we will build a better Britain. Thank you. | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
The other main story today is the vice president of South Sudan, who | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
has joined his rival, the president, in ordering an immediate ceasefire | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
after days of fighting in the capital. That has left hundreds | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
dead. A spokesman for the president said, he was committed to working | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
with the Vice President to implement a peace deal signed last year. UN | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
Secretary-General banking and said the peace deal had to be fortified | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
to attack civilians. -- Ban Ki-moon. From me and all the team, a very | :25:44. | :25:45. | |
good buy for now. Goodbye. Good evening. It has been a spells | :25:46. | :26:12. | |
and blustery showers as we head to the day tomorrow. An improvement | :26:13. | :26:13. | |
across some | :26:14. | :26:15. |
