How we did because it was wrapped in flammable cladding, that is a key issue and yet it is not seriously being addressed. The firefighters turned up after that happens, after the building was turned, in reality, into a death trap. The Prime Minister will try today for a fourth time to secure an early general election in december. I hope that Opposition Party members would want to trust the public, let them have a say. They had seemed determined not to deliver on the referendum but i think it is time that at this stage, to make sure we can deliver on brexit, we let the general public have a say. It looks like game on for a winter election, with borisjohnson like game on for a winter election, with Boris Johnson looking like game on for a winter election, with borisjohnson looking set to achieve backing for his december poll. Will it be december the 9th, tenth or 11th, and will that be a deal breaker . And while politicians literally argue over a data. In todays exclusive film, we expose
Rights especially empowerment. So to be able to see this from afar and now to see the work being done on the ground i think whats really key is to focus on the work that needs to be done, but also how much incredible work is being done and to be able to be here and help support those people who are actively working to champion the rights of women and girls. Well talk to meghan suppporters around the country, a former tabloid editor, a barrister and our royal correspondent. Do you support this legal aciton by meghan and harry . Let me know. Borisjohnsons take it or leave it message to europe as he prepares to set out his final offer on brexit. Now is the time for the eu to consider seriously the proposals that were putting forward. There will not be a delay. We are leaving on the 31st of october. And what we really, really want is for the eu to recognise that movement on their part will give us the opportunity to get a deal that we can get through the house of commons, get brexit done.

After one of the most radical reshuffles in decades, borisjohnson will chair his first Cabinet Meeting this morning. The new Prime Minister moved quickly to install brexiteers in key posts to help carry out his pledge to take the uk out of the eu by the end of october, with or without a deal.

And frenchjournalist nabila ramdan. Welcome to you all. So if the ball comes loose from the back of the scrum, that is a rugby phrase borisjohnson himself once used to talk about the opportunity to become party leader and Prime Minister. The ball came loose, its now in his hands, but there is a lot standing between this player and his try. Parliament has blocked the brexit deal agreed by his predecessor, but nor is parliament prepared to tolerate no deal. The eu says the deal it agreed is not up for renegotiation.
