Hello, everyone. This is afternoon live. Im simon mccoy. Cross party talks to try to find a compromise on brexit have collapsed without agreement. The labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, said the negotiations, which have lasted six weeks, had gone as far as they could. He blamed what he called the increasing weakness and instability of the government. Theresa may said labour hadnt been clear on whether or not it wanted another referendum. It comes after the Prime Minister promised to set a timetable for leaving downing street. Heres our Political Correspondent, chris mason. Election events are usually full of whoops and cheers, but can you even see many smiles in this room . No, me neither. Next thursday we will be Holding European elections. The conservative party didnt want to be fighting these. We wanted to be out of the eu. In fact, if parliament had backed our brexit deal, we could have already left the eu. The Prime Minister is in bristol fighting an election she didnt want as talks with labour over a brexit compromise collapse. There have been areas we have been able to find Common Ground but other issues have proved to be more difficult, and in particular we havent been able to overcome the fact that there isnt a common position in labour about whether they want to deliver brexit or hold a second referendum which could reverse it. For six weeks, 42 days to be precise, labour and the conservatives have been negotiating, trying to find an island of agreement in a vast ocean of division. We shouldnt be that surprised that this morning Jeremy Corbyn said. These talks have now reached what i believe to be a natural conclusion. The prime minster has announced the date she is leaving, they have been increasing noises off stage by conservative cabinet members and others who dont agree with the talks and discussions being held so we are concluding the talks. So what on earth happens now . A Gridlocked Parliament in a divided country. There are only two ways out of the brexit crisis we have. Either parliament agrees a deal or we go back to the british people and ask them to make the choice, and i think this brings the prospect of a confirmatory referendum closer, although theres not yet a majority for it in parliament. Morning. Will you be running for leader, mr gove . One snazzy suitcase, one question. I think the most important thing we need to do is focus on the fact that the government are bringing forward their withdrawal deal that will allow us to leave the eu. A loyal non answer, but not a denial. Anotherfront door, the same questio, and no answer at all, but we do know Boris Johnson wants the job. I think you are too divisive to be tory Prime Minister. The contest for the biggest prize in politics is under way, but before that, the slog of a search to sort brexit trundles on. Our Political Correspondent Jonathan Blake is at westminster. This, lets face it, was not a huge surprise, the collapse of these talks. No, it really wasnt. They have been hunting on forjust over six weeks, and although both sides claim to be serious about the process and they were finding areas of agreement between the two sides, there was i think an uneasiness, certainly we have heard that from Jeremy Corbyn today as to whether the government would or could stick to what it agreed, given that theresa may may not be in charge for very much longer and a new Prime Minister may have different ideas on how to deliver brexit and on the conservative side we have real unease about signing up to any permanent customs arrangement with the eu which was a key labour demand, so even at they had been able to do a deal, selling it to their respective parties and bringing them on board was always going to be a huge challenge, but the process now dead in the water, Jeremy Corbyn havent taken the step to pull the plug on the talks today. We have a bit of back and forth, both sides blaming each other by the breakdown in negotiations and youre left with a question of what happens now. If these talks were a liferaft that theresa may and the government we re that theresa may and the government were clinging to as their Brexit Strategy drift around the ocean, they have to find something else. Parliament has to play a role said Jeremy Corbyn today. The most happiest way to do that is the Withdrawal Agreement bill which the government has said mps will get to vote on, but as it stands it looked set for defeat, so the government will try. We had that from theresa may today, to adding things which could be tempting to labour mps and some conservatives as well to get them to vote for it at least at the first option so that they can then attach things to it, delete things from it, and change it as it goes through because the big parts of the conversation here, whether the uk leaves the eu without a deal or not oi leaves the eu without a deal or not or whether there is a further referendum or not, so no deal to be rolled out and for another referendum to happen, that has to go through parliament and the law has to be past and this is the only real chance that mps have to do that. Thank you very much. With me is the labour mp rupa huq, who has been a prominent supporter for another eu referendum. Nice to see you. Not a huge surprise that these talks have broken down. Each side predictably blaming each other at a time when the country is still in some crisis. What has gone wrong here . Yes, there is a long list of errors. It is quite understandable that the public feel fed up of theirs. I am 20 knock on doors and have been doing it all began for the elections that we have on thursday that were not supposed to happen. But deadly doors open . I think people are not in a good mate. Theresa mays own negotiating strategy was at fault. When she set her red lines, she then became a prisoner of those red lines, so she kind of cut of her nose to spite her face very early on and then became buxton and the only people she has really been talking to for ages that make these cross party talks have come very late in the day so people like the dup, she was making overtures to her own side, most of them were trying to stab her in the back. Give me a sense of what it is like to be in her company because you have said that you had a meeting with her. Yes, on the 4th of april i had half an hour with her at number ten. It was i suppose in good faith, but i probably could have told you then that the cross party talks were going nowhere because the point of negotiation are that the two sides set out their stalls and Common Ground is found, whereas i think from that early period onwards she didnt want to budge on anything. My first question to her was what redline has changed, Prime Minister . And she kind of raised her eyes to heaven and plonked her head on the table in frustration, which was kind ofan amusing table in frustration, which was kind of an amusing side of her which i had not seen, but as the conversation went on she was not entertaining the thought of a Customs Union and she was trying to impress upon me that the dead horse of the deal, she was still trying to flog that to me that she is spinning at back and forth time and itjust seems illogical that if mps are being presented with the same question again and again and a lot of them have shifted side, public needs to be able to do the same. Let stock about your party. You have a lwa ys stock about your party. You have always wanted another referendum and yet your party does not have a clear line in the sand she said today that thatis line in the sand she said today that that is part of the problem. The labour party are split on that issue. I find from knocking on doors that people are getting very entrenched. Brexit people want no deal, which every government analysis had said will be catastrophic, yet at the same time people who voted remain want to revoke, they want to call the whole thing of, bit like in dallas where there was that whole part where bobby ewing woke up in the shower and a whole series had been imagined. We cant pretend that the referendum didnt happen so i think a sensible midway thing is to offer people a confirmatory felt, is that is what our party is now calling it, not a second referendum because the first one was when i was a baby, in fa ct. First one was when i was a baby, in fact. 0nce first one was when i was a baby, in fact. Once we have got the text of something that people can measure up, offer then that can versus remain. 0ur Party Position has been to try with these talks and i think it is only right that the plug is pulled on them now because we are being strung along. Im sorry. I cant get the bobby ewing thing out of my head. In terms of the future, theresa mays days are numbered, would you fear a borisjohnson Led Conservative Party . I think many people on their own side with fear that. Michael heseltine has been saying and large numbers of them have said able walk if he becomes Prime Minister. I think he is a very dangerous character, actually. A large number of mistakes that he has made, he was the worst foreign secretary ever, people like Nazanin Zaghari ratcliffe, he endangered her life even more by saying she had done it and he lurched from catastrophe to catastrophe and some of these things are only come to light now, £50 million of public money spent on the garden bridge and he is someone who seems to wilt in the wind according to which way the party is going so he has turned into a hard brexiteers but we know that he wrote an essay, a telegraph column. Ijust want he wrote an essay, a telegraph column. I just want to talk more generally because people looking at you now will say that we will be leaving the eu at the moment without a deal. That is now looking more and more likely if theresa may doesnt get her deal through. Does that mean theres a chance she could still do this at the fourth attempt . theres a chance she could still do this at the fourth attempt . I think it is very unlikely. I am certainly not voting for it and at least 120 other mps i could name are not going to vote for anything unless it has a confirmatory felt attached to it. Anyway, that is kind of the solution. It is not a thing on its own. Because 2016 is a jolly long time ago now. As everyday passes, that mandate gets older and older so i think once we have a measurable proposition. You need 300 mps to get anything through, so 120 of us at least ten people are saying it may be as many as 150. Lots of people like borisjohnson be as many as 150. Lots of people like Boris Johnson and jacob rees mogg, actually, who were hard brexiteers, in between they came back and voted for her deal in its last iteration, i have heard a lot of those people are going to vote against it this time so the numbers will be worse than the last time. It isa will be worse than the last time. It is a high risk strategy. Will be worse than the last time. It is a highrisk strategy. Good to talk to you. We will all try and remember dallas again. Yes, you will have to google it if you are younger viewer. Thank you very much. Doctors have used keyhole surgery to repair the spine of a baby with spina bifida while still inside the womb. A team at Kings College hospital in london performed the operation. Its not a cure for the condition, but for some children, it might mean they are eventually able to walk. Heres our health correspondent, james gallagher. Baby jaxson is just a few weeks old, but more than two months ago, he had pioneering surgery on his spine. Doctors operated onjaxson while he was still inside his mothers womb. His mum, sherrie, said it was a shock to find out he had spina bifida. Baby jaxson is just a few weeks old, but more than two months ago, it was a very high risk pregnancy from the start anyway, through being told i couldnt have babies, and everything. So any decision weve had to make, ive made it purely for the fact that hes meant to be here. You know, its hesjust hes fought every day. It was these pregnancy scans that showed jaxsons spine and spinal cord were not developing properly. Spina bifida can lead to paralysis and affect bladder and bowel control, but surgery in the womb can reduce the risk of complications later in life. We are operating on very delicate structures. The foetus nerves, that they are exposed, the foetus itself is very small, and we are operating on a foetus inside the womb, so obviously its a very delicate operation. This is how it works. Three small incisions were made in sherries bump. A thin camera and small surgical tools were inserted into her womb, then surgeons put the spinal cord back in place and put a patch over the wound. Spina bifida cannot be completely cured, but surgeons hope operating inside the womb can transform lives. Its quite important because certainly improving the function of lower limbs may be the difference between someone walking and someone not walking later in life, so a significant improvement in a significant number of patients, but not a cure. Jaxsons still being looked after in neonatal intensive care, but he should be ready to go home soon. His family hope theyve given him the best start in life. James gallagher, bbc news. One hundred people have now died from stabbings this year, according to figures weve obtained from Police Forces around the country. Almost half the victims were under the age of 30, and the vast majority were male. The youngest to be killed was 14 years old, and the oldest was 80. Our home affairs correspondent, tom symonds, reports. 100 crime scenes, 100 lost lives. We have been tracking murder and manslaughter in britain in 2019 and the knife is the most used murder weapon. Charlotte huggins became 2019s first stabbing victim on new years day in south london. On average, there was a knife murder or manslaughter nearly every day and a half that followed. Each face represents a devastated family and an expensive murder inquiry. This is a crime disproportionately affecting young people. Nearly a third of victims were under 30. Nearly a fifth were under 20, and that is a huge worry for the police and youth workers. In the West Midlands, knife crime has risen by 96 since 2013, with eight fatal knife attacks this year, along with manchester and london the highest rate in the country. Here, they say, Violent Crime has moved beyond just those involved in gangs. It is across all people now, and were seeing what used to be a small act of violence, perhaps a slap or a punch, turn into something far more serious. But two promising signs. In 95 of the 100 cases, someone has been arrested, and in london the metropolitan Police Recently Released figures suggesting a 10 fall in knife crime resulting in an injury. Tom symonds, bbc news.

Theres been an sharp rise in the number of cases of bowel cancer in adults under 50, with young people seeing the steepest increase, according to two separate new studies. Although the total number of cases is still low for 20 29 year olds, experts have urged doctors not to ignore symptoms in the young. Dr mary araghi was the lead author for the study published in the lancet her research saw an increase in bowel cancer among young adults in high Income Countries, shejoins me now. Where you surprised by this . Yes, actually. We have seen the increase from a study coming from the us that was published in 2017 and we were really interested to see if we could see the same pattern in high Income Countries and so as part of a team in the cancer unit in the International Agency for research on cancer we were interested to see these trends in other high Income Countries including the uk so we had the most up to date data which is comparable to the study is coming from the us and we saw this increase in the young adults which was quite shocking because normally we dont expect that much of an increase. The billion dollar question is why . What you think is behind it . It is a really good question. There is no definite answer or we cant provide an answer at this stage. We were here to raise the issue. We saw this increase and we want further studies to actually investigate the underlying reason for such an increase. The research which shows a growth in these numbers in younger people, that is also a concern. We traditionally think of this as an Older Persons illness. Exactly, and also in terms of awareness in a primary care setting, so for example of the patient is at a young age has just come in the clinic with the symptoms, so we want to raise the issue that please dont ignore, for example, the symptoms. So that was also to raise the issue in a primary ca re also to raise the issue in a primary care setting. Which would suggest that you would support screening at a much younger age. Depending on who is at risk. You dont really know who to screen. Yes, there are so many studies that need to be done with the cost effectiveness of screening and at the younger age because the age of screening is started from the age of 50 so we dont know how practical it could be if we decrease the screening age so it leads into the future to be decided. We talk in terms of health and we look at obesity and we look at poor diet as issues and obviously they are things that would be looked at. Yes, definitely. These are risk factors so that is really important. We think that this might be some sort of, by raising these risk factors might be the reason that we see this increase in Colorectal Cancer because obesity is the main risk factorfor cancer because obesity is the main risk factor for Colorectal Cancer. And income, is that a factor when it comes to this . It might also because ican comes to this . It might also because i canjust like comes to this . It might also because i can just like going comes to this . It might also because i canjust like going to the westernised diet and stuff is actually some sort of like coming for the high Income Countries, so it might be but we need the studies to look at if we can see some sort of similar trend in lower middle Income Countries. The point is that those who have a change in bowel movements of whatever age, dont ignore it. Yes, exactly. That is the message. Very good to come and talk to us. Mary araghi, thank you very much. A neo nazi who planned to murder the labour mp, rosie cooper, has beenjailed for life at the old bailey. 23 year old jack renshaw, from skelmersdale in lancashire, was told he must serve at least 20 years in prison. 0ur correspondent, angus crawford, was in court. The judge described renshaw as undoubtedly a dangerous offender with twisted political beliefs. She sentenced him to life in prison and said he must serve a minimum of 20 years before being considered eligible for release. He is already in prison, serving time for inciting racial hatred and also for grooming children online. Now, we have to go back to july of 2017. He was in a pub with other far right activists and he said he wanted to kill his mp, his local mp, rosie cooper, to in his words send a message to the state. He also said he intended to kill a Police Officer who was investigating him. He said he wanted to die via what he called suicide by cop. He hoped responding officers would shoot him dead in what he called white jihad. But a source within that group told the police about his potential plans. He was arrested. They found a 19 inch blade in his house. He admitted his offences and today in court as he was being led down to the cells, a group of supporters in the Public Gallery said, were with you, jack. He responded by giving what appeared to be a nazi salute. I m pei, regarded as one of the greatest architects of the last hundred years, has died at the age of 102. Tributes have been pouring in, remembering him for a lifetime of designing iconic structures worldwide including the extraordinary glass pyramid outside the louvre in paris. Edwin heathcote is an english architect and designer and joins me now. Thank you for coming in. We have here an image of him in front of that glass pyramid. Not a bad thing to be remembered for, but in the 90s, this was hugely controversial. We are talking about the louvre, and he is not french, and it upset a lot of people. Yes, it opened on the 200th anniversary of the french revolution and it was a kind of architectural revelation in its own way so to be at such a sensitive side, there was a lot of controversy about whether a foreigner, an american, chinese american, should be allowed to do this and this is one of the absolute key sites of french heritage and history and he pulled it off. He wasnt always recognised, but he pulled it off in the end. And one of those things now that we look at and we all, most of us, love. That is the trick of architecture that he mastered, was it . I think it is. He architecture that he mastered, was it . Ithink it is. He had architecture that he mastered, was it . I think it is. He had a kind of monumentality that looked radical at first, looked a bit shocking. Is a because of the geometry of it, the really angular look of many of his buildings . Yes, there is kind of chutzpah in doing things like that. He got away with it. He had a lightness of touch combined with this kind of elemental approach to architecture which meant that he could get away with it. A lightness of touch that relied also on light. That played a huge part, didnt it . And these very angular buildings, one thinks of the museum is rebuilt and the tower blocks in china for which he will be remembered as well. Absolutely. In excluding light, in the mass of the building, and then introducing it through atriums which we re very introducing it through atriums which were very popular at the times and through the structure like the pyramid, pyramids were a bit of a thing for him. He was going to put a pyramid in the Kennedy Library at one time. This is a structure for which he will also be equally remembered. That is the bank of china in hong kong which is such a prominent landmark on the skyline and it is now eliminated in a slightly garish and kitschy way which im not sure he was keen on. What was it about him, what did he bring to modern architecture . Are we going to be following him, was he a trendsetter . He lived so long. He was born in 1917 and educated in the 30s by the founders of bauhaus, so he spurned such an incredible period in architecture from the beginning of modernism right through to the beginning and the end of post modernism, he spent a whole lot. He wrote in 2010, can be a little ha rd to lot. He wrote in 2010, can be a little hard to depend whether fashion changed to catch up with him. Do you know the answer to that . No. He certainly did have a bit of a post modern conversion and his later buildings are definitely less austere than his earlier buildings but i think he carried on doing a similar thing but i think he carried on doing a similarthing and but i think he carried on doing a similar thing and history put up with him. He regarded himself, despite his birth, as a western architect. He did. Iasked despite his birth, as a western architect. He did. I asked him whether he regarded himself as chinese and he said he would always be chinese and it would stay with him and his family has been there for 600 years but he was a western architect and this was the environment that he worked in. Which is your favourite of his buildings . Well, i think it has to be the louvre. It was such an audacious plan and so controversial at the time and actually so beloved now. It seems like the most natural thing in the world now. It is beautiful, isnt it . Thank you very much. Viral internet sensation grumpy cat has died aged seven.

More now on breakdown of talks on brexit between labour and the conservatives. In a letter to the Prime Minister, Jeremy Corbyn said the talks had ended because of the increasing weakness and instability of the government. Theresa may is now considering whether to hold further indicative votes in parliament, in an attempt to find a consensus among mps. With me is sonia sodha, chief leader writer for the observer and dia chakravarty, brexit editor for the telegraph, this was the worst kept secret but where are we now . That is a question that everyone is facing. There have been some leaks today that suggest theresa may was trying for a plan for a series of indicative votes next week. I think there is still a chance that the Prime Minister will try and push forward with that. The upshot is that nothing has changed. No one thaw labour and the conservatives were going to strike a brexit deal. Multiple thought it was a bit ofa brexit deal. Multiple thought it was a bit of a sherrard that they were carrying on with it because it suited them to look like they were getting on with something. Parliament is still gridlocked and divided. It is very hard to see what the way forward is. The view of the public of a plague on both your houses could be seen again. They are both blaming each other. If this comes as a surprise to you that no deal was reached between the two parties, you have not been paying attention. It did not sit either of the parties to be seen to be striking a deal either, because a lot of the general public watching might have hoped they would come to an agreement so might have hoped they would come to an agreement so some might have hoped they would come to an agreement so some sort of resolution comes to. What will be interesting to see is what the european elections bring. I slightly fear that even those results arent going to show us a way to irresolution. Both sides, the remain side and the brexit side, i going to try and sit them best. We have theresa may, a leader, saying she is off and we have a Leadership Campaign that could take us to when . What do you see the timing is being . The summer could be wasted time we could have a new Prime Minister. lot of people in the party are keen the leadership election gets wrapped up the leadership election gets wrapped up before the summer, before the july and august breaks, and that is to give the new Prime Minister a bit of time to get the feet under the table before the october party conference, which is where you would expect to see a new Prime Minister launched their agenda and do some work on brexit over the summer period. There is still a question over when exactly theresa may is going to go. An agreement has been reached but the precise details of that timetable are still up in the air. The second big question facing us asa air. The second big question facing us as a country is even if you switch into somebody else for theresa may, how much difference is that going to make . You still have the same parliamentary arithmetic. I think it is very likely the conservatives are going to pick a candidate like Boris Johnson conservatives are going to pick a candidate like borisjohnson who is my gun for on brexit and were open to the possibility of a no deal brexit and that could shift things by october, because we know parliament is against a no deal but if you have a Prime Minister who is more gung ho about a no deal, what would happen in a parliamentary showdown with a Prime Minister like borisjohnson showdown with a Prime Minister like Boris Johnson and a showdown with a Prime Minister like borisjohnson and a parliament, that is going to become more important. If nigel farage comes out strongly, who is it other than boris can take him on . A lot of people are mentioning boriss name. There was a pull today that set amongst conservative supporters he is doing quite well. Whether the home secretary has the name recognition that many tory members could see him through a general Election Campaign is to be seen. Just to add to what was being said, i am looking at the data which is the 15th ofjune. That is when there is a conservative grassroots conference we re is when there is a conservative grassroots conference were a lot of people are going to get together who theresa may needs to keep on her side to actually stay in office. We are looking at that date, botanical if she has lost the fourth attempt, she could be gone. We have said this many, many times about her. And every time we keep saying, how is she possibly going to stay on . She stays on. I think when it comes to borisjohnson, he is a marmite figure in the conservative party. There are a lot of people who feel strongly against Boris Johnson when it comes to thinking about him asa when it comes to thinking about him as a Prime Minister. 0ne when it comes to thinking about him as a Prime Minister. One of the reasons why he is currently talked about as the front runners, despite there are people in the party who do not like him, is because a lot of tories will now see the real threat as being nigel farage, as well as Jeremy Corbyn. Self interest kicks in and there will be a lot of tory mps who are worried about losing their seats because some of the voters will defect to the brexit party, which we let in a minority labour government. Maybe some other thing i do not like boris but i will hold my nose and vote for him because perhaps he is the one person who could go head to head with nigel farage. I think that is why Boris Johnsons fortunes are looking up as they may have been eight months ago. Would you put money on a general election before long . Before long, but i will not give you a date. I do think the farmer breakdown, lets say, of these talks makes the general election more likely. Formal election. It is great to talk to you. Thank you. Thank you. The 5th ofjune will mark the 75th anniversary of the end of the battle of anzio a four month World War Two campaign, which resulted in the allied forces taking control of rome. One man who was there in 19114 is 96 year old walter nixon. 75 years on hes returned to anzio for the first time and he was joined by the bbcs kevin burch. Back again at last and first stop, the war cemetery. In no time at all, he is overwhelmed. There are more than 2000 graves of soldiers, sailors, airmen. The youngest was 16. Walter was 21 when he landed in anzio. When you see all these young people, they never lived, they never saw. People, they never lived, they never saw. Im sorry, but i was part of it. I was lucky to get through. I am blessed. The ensuing battle, prolonged in the face of german resistance. At the cemetery in anzio, walter searches for one victim, an officer he grew to know and admire. I helped him. He saw him killed in a blastjust feet away. This is why he stands in my memory more than anyone else. I am honoured to be able to come back and pay my respects. The museum in anzio tells the whole story, the scale, the story courage. Freedom and democracy are not toys. You can give as a present and we have to fight every day to keep our freedom in europe. I ought to them, you know, the strength to them to remember, to remind us what is the price of freedom. Finally fat walter, the beach where he drove his military vehicle assure. Finally for walter. He was weaving me down. He was saying, keep going, keep going. Dont stop, keep going. That someone was dennis healey, the beach master then, labour leader later. There pass would pass later on the campaign trail. Brothers in arms. It is hard to know what it was like at 230 in the morning. It wasnt anything like this. It wasnt as peaceful as this. It is good to come back. It is a wonderful experience. He never had to have a passport. He did not need one last time. He got one last week before what he admits isa one last week before what he admits is a journey of a lifetime. Jamie is here with the business news. They want it cancelled and the last six weeks i sing it is wasted. They are keen to get a deal but they do not know exactly how. We can go over tojosh. You not know exactly how. We can go over to josh. You say you not know exactly how. We can go over tojosh. You say you want not know exactly how. We can go over to josh. You say you want to not know exactly how. We can go over tojosh. You say you want to get on with it but what do you want . We have got to face the reality of the situation. Every day matters at the moment. I was in the West Midlands yesterday. Their factory is closed in leeds they are going to replace it in europe. That is 100 jobs gone because of brexit uncertainty. Another one losing 300 jobs. This is happening every day. We have had six weeks of talks that have amounted to nothing. Now we need to find a new way. Do not mind how it is done but they need a deal so they can keep investing and growing jobs. The idea of taking a ten day recess just feels wrong. I have heard arguments from people like yourself a lot over the last two years seeing these companies are getting rid of people, and yet we look at the figures and employment has never been so good. We have virtually in my lifetime never had employment at these record highs. People have gotjobs. Never had employment at these record highs. People have got jobs. What are we worrying about . It is fantastic but we are worried about the conversations we are having with our employers dearly saying we are growing but we are growing at 1. 2 . That is nowhere near where we need to be in order to raise wages to give people good jobs. If we take away brexit uncertainty, there is so much we could be doing. We produced a report today that says if you can improve employment engagement,. Government did not have capacity to do that. Businesses havent spent their money or no deal planning. We need to rebuild the country. Talk about the report you brought out. This has been a bugbear of economist for the last five years, i suppose. What is your solution . In light of this relies on business and government working together. A lot of the conversation is about technology and those areas. If you improve your people practices, better engagement and training of employees and if you move them from lower level to the middle, it can add 20 of the labour productivity. It is something we have seen this week, bt, all coming up with brilliant announcements of employee engagement. Businesses are ready but we need the space and environment to drive it forward. Thank you very much indeed forjoining us. Amazon and delivery. Amazon has been getting a big chunk of it. It isnt in the United States, which is interesting. Amazon tried to come into this own country but then backed out. Now it is thinking about getting back in. Lets ask about the American Point of view and why amazon might be doing this. Naturally, amazon is a company that is constantly looking for a new and different revenue streams. It really wants to dominate as many markets as they possibly can. 0ne wants to dominate as many markets as they possibly can. One big area of growth in the tech sector is delivery of takeaway foods. Deliveroo is not in the us. What we are seeing is a real fight between amazon and uber. They have Just Launched as a publicly trading company. It has been floundering somewhat and people are worried about how much the company is growing. Investing in this kind of Delivery Service is seen as a big growth avenue. They are going quite slowly about it. We do not know the size of the investment that they could have up to one third. Probably less, 20 or 25 . Why are they so cautious . They have the money. Absolutely. They certainly have the money and they could just go out and buy it up. That is a really good question and im not really sure if lam able question and im not really sure if i am able to answer that question, why it isjust a steak. I will i am able to answer that question, why it is just a steak. I will have to be really honest here. What is really interesting if you make the comparisons in setting up that fate, when oboe was going round and to gain investor interest mike hooper. It pitched itself as the amazon for delivery. Great to talk to you. Thank you very much. I respect people who say, i do not know. We do not have enough people like that. That doesnt look very good. Thomas cook is down about one third when i last looked and down even more now. They havejust third when i last looked and down even more now. They have just been told they are worthless by one bank. They reckon they are going to go to zero. 4596 . It is a long way. They came out with massive losses yesterday and it is getting worse. Thank you very much. I hope you do not have shares anyway. No, i havent. Lets have a look at the weather. We return to nick miller who is not going to be singing any eurovision songs, butjust the weather. There is another hour to look forward to so be careful what you wish for. I am going to focus on the weather for today and the weekend. A lot of us are noticing more cloud, a lot more cloud.

If you start with sunshine, you were cloud over. Is scattered of showers across the uk. Not everybody will see a shower. Light winds by sunday. Sunny spells around any showers with those late wins. It will feel warmer. This is how the weekend is shaping up, plenty of cloud, sunny spells at times, for scotland outbreaks of rain, slowly feeling warmer as the weekend goes on. Into next week, high teens into 20 celsius. Pleasant in the sunshine, winds are fairly late but there is a chance of catching a shower as always. That is your Weather Forecast. Hello, youre watching afternoon live. Today at 3. Cross Party Brexit Talks are scrapped Jeremy Corbyn blames their collapse on the weakness and instability of the government. The divisions within the conservative party mean its a government thats negotiating with no authority and no ability that i can see to actually deliver anything. We havent been able to overcome the fact that there isnt a common position in labour about whether they want to deliver brexit or hold a second referendum which could reverse it.

Tributes to i m pei you may not know his name but youll be familiar with his work the architect behind buildings including the glass pyramid outside the louvre in paris whos died at the age of 102. Hello everyone this is afternoon live. Im simon mccoy. Cross party talks to try to break the brexit impasse have collapsed without agreement. The labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, said the negotiations , which have lasted six weeks , had gone as far as they could. He blamed what he called the increasing weakness and instability of the government. Theresa may said labour hadnt been clear on whether or not it wanted another referendum. It comes after the Prime Minister promised to set a timetable for leaving downing street. Heres our Political Correspondent, chris mason. Election events are usually full of whoops and cheers, but can you even see many smiles in this room . No, me neither. Next thursday we will be Holding European elections. The conservative party didnt want to be fighting these. We wanted to be out of the eu. In fact, if parliament had backed our brexit deal, we could have already left the eu. The Prime Minister is in bristol fighting an election she didnt want as talks with labour over a brexit compromise collapse. There have been areas we have been able to find Common Ground but other issues have proved to be more difficult, and in particular we havent been able to overcome the fact that there isnt a common position in labour about whether they want to deliver brexit or hold a second referendum which could reverse it. For six weeks, 42 days to be precise, labour and the conservatives have been negotiating, trying to find an island of agreement in a vast ocean of division. We shouldnt be that surprised that this morning Jeremy Corbyn said. At these talks have now reached what i believe to be a natural conclusion. The pm has announced the date she is leaving, there have been increasing noises off stage by conservative cabinet members and others who dont agree with the talks and discussions being held so we are concluding the talks. So what on earth happens now . A Gridlocked Parliament in a divided country. There are only two ways out of the brexit crisis we have. Either parliament agrees a deal or we go back to the british people and ask them to make the choice, and i think this brings the prospect of a confirmatory referendum closer, although there is not yet a majority for it in parliament. Morning. Will you be running for leader, mr Cerny Michael gove . 0ne snazzy suitcase and one question here is the answer. I think the most important thing we need to do is focus on the fact that the government are bringing forward their withdrawal deal that will allow us to leave the eu. Anotherfront door, the same question is no answer at all, but we do know Boris Johnson wants the job. I think you are too divisive to be tory Prime Minister. The contest for the biggest prize in politics is under way, but before that, the slog of a search to sort brexit trundles on. Ive been speaking to our Political Correspondent Jonathan Blake who explained to me why many mps arent surprised by the breakdown of the cross party talks they have been limping on forjust over six weeks, and although both sides claim to be serious about the process , sides claim to be serious about the process, and they were finding areas of agreement between the two sides, there was an uneasiness certainly, we have heard that from Jeremy Corbyn today. Whether the government could, or would, stick to want it agreed given that theresa may will not be in powerfor very long and a new Prime Minister may have different ideas about how to deliver brexit. 0n the conservative side, you had real unease among tory mps about signing up to any permit customs relationship with the eu which was a key labour demand. Even if there had been a deal, selling it to the prospective parties and bringing them on board would be a challenge. The process now is dead in the water. Jeremy corbyn has taken a step to pull the plugs on the talks, back and forth, both sides braiding or blaming each other. What happens now . These talks for a life raft that the government was clinging to as their exit strategy drifts, aimlessly, around the ocean. We have to find something else. Parliament has to play a role said Jeremy Corbyn today. The most obvious way to do that was to withdraw the agreement spell which the government said the mps would get to vote on in the first week of june. As it stands, it looks set for defeat. So the government will try, reason me is trying to tempt some labour mps reason me is trying to tempt some labourmps and reason me is trying to tempt some labour mps and some conservatives to get them to vote for it. At least at the first option, so they can then amend and attach things to it, delete things from it and change it as it goes through. The big parts of the conversation here, whether the uk leaves the eu without a deal or not, whether there is a further referendum or not. For no deal to be rolled out and another referendum to happen, that has to go through parliament and alone must be passed. This is the only real chance that mps have do that. Doctors have used keyhole surgery to repair the spine of a baby with spina bifida while still inside the womb. A team at Kings College hospital in london performed the operation. Its not a cure for the condition, but for some children, it might mean they are eventually able to walk. Heres our health correspondent, james gallagher. Baby jaxson is just a few weeks old, but more than two months ago, he had pioneering surgery on his spine. Doctors operated onjaxson while he was still inside his mothers womb. His mum, sherrie, said it was a shock to find out he had spina bifida. It was a very high risk pregnancy from the start anyway, through being told i couldnt have babies, and everything. So any decision weve had to make, ive made it purely for the fact that hes meant to be here. You know, its hesjust hes fought every day. It was these pregnancy scans that showed jaxsons spine and spinal cord were not developing properly. Spina bifida can lead to paralysis and affect bladder and bowel control, but surgery in the womb can reduce the risk of complications later in life. We are operating on very delicate structures. The foetus nerves, that they are exposed, the foetus itself is very small, and we are operating on a foetus inside the womb, so obviously its a very delicate operation. This is how it works. Three small incisions were made in sherries bump. A thin camera and small surgical tools were inserted into her womb, then surgeons put the spinal cord back in place and put a patch over the wound. Spina bifida cannot be completely cured, but surgeons hope operating inside the womb can transform lives. Its quite important because certainly improving the function of lower limbs may be the difference between someone walking and someone not walking later in life, so a significant improvement in a significant number of patients, but not a cure. Jaxsons still being looked after in neonatal intensive care, but he should be ready to go home soon. His family hope theyve given him the best start in life. James gallagher, bbc news. Lets now speak to aidan daly in Northern Ireland, whose son adam had fetoscoptic surgery in germany for spina bifida while still in the womb. Iam i am guessing that you are looking at the story with, obviously huge interest. It is amazing how that is progressing the treatment. When i heard the news this morning i was absolutely delighted. I think the uk have been a wee bit slow to come to the game on these progressive surgeries. But when they have introduced them, they have moved very quickly which is of real benefit. It takes away that worry that we had whenever we were having our surgery, having to do that in a foreign country with the prospect of not being able to come home until the birth was a very scary ordeal. That must have been a huge decision. How is adam now . He is thriving. He is three years old now and in recent weeks, he has gotten more mobile on his feet. Touch wood, we have not had too many hospital visits in between. He is a bubbly, naughty normal three year old. Between. He is a bubbly, naughty normal threeyearold. Which between. He is a bubbly, naughty normalthreeyearold. Which is fantastic to hear. That said, that decision could not have been an easy one for you. No, the difficulty with it is that we get our scan at around 20 weeks. You have to have the surgery by around 26 weeks so you have a short window to determine whether a not this is something you wa nt to whether a not this is something you want to avail of. Alongside that, at the time we did it, it was not something that was very widely known about. It was not something that was expressly offered through the nhs, we had to do a bit of research around that. And that is a scary moment. It is like what jaxsons mum said. We wanted to give adam the best start to life that we could. In terms of what happens in the future, presumably there is progress being made at every stage in the treatment of spina bifida. Absolutely, as medicine progresses and people understand the implications of what the condition does, the issue of spina bifida is that it is very individual for each person affected by it. So as we get on a more about it, as we hone techniques, treatment and relief of the symptoms will only get better. I suppose the other thing about this is that we are really, in the uk, we understand permit yourself with full charset and fully casted have been proven to reduce spina bifida by 70 . So there are things we can do that are preventative but advanced techniques hopefully relieve the symptoms too. Given that you made that decision and you had that operation and he is now, iam and you had that operation and he is now, i am wondering, when he is old enough, he will turn around you and say thank you want to . 0r well. That is the hope. As a parent of nhl, we want them to be and independent. And adam is going to face challenges, he will have difficulties in the future and i suppose i would love to be able to show him this back and show that we did everything for him so thank you would be nice but i wont hold my breath at any child would think their parents. Every parent is nodding at that one. Any moments that you have with them, and you have them in your arms, you are pioneers you to. Im not sure about that. Im not comfortable with the term pioneers, iam just that. Im not comfortable with the term pioneers, i am just a father, i did not have to do an awful lot of stuff. My wife paula was the real hero. She had to put her body on the line, she is the pioneer more than i am, herand adam. Line, she is the pioneer more than i am, her and adam. If it opens doors to other people getting the surgery, thatis to other people getting the surgery, that is fantastic news story today. Long mate continue, and long may the uk continue to pioneer surgery like this that affects the lives of so many people. Thank you. Thank you very much. Breaking news from the duchess of sussex. And little archie. We have had confirmation that the duchess gave birth to archie i want to show you this. There it is. There is archie, confirmation in the last few minutes that he was born at the portland hospital in westminster. The couple said they wanted to have a homebirth. But as it turns out, the rumours that on the morning of his birth he was whisked into the portland hospital have been confirmed. That has been revealed on his birth certificate. Any more of that and it will bring it to you. One hundred people have now died from stabbings this year, according to figures weve obtained from Police Forces around the country. Almost half the victims were under the age of 30, and the vast majority were male. The youngest to be killed was 14 years old, and the oldest was 80. Our home affairs correspondent, tom symonds, reports. 100 crime scenes, 100 lost lives. We have been tracking murder and manslaughter in britain in 2019 and the knife is the most used murder weapon. Charlotte huggins became 2019s first stabbing victim on new years day in south london. On average, there was a knife murder or manslaughter nearly every day and a half that followed. Each face represents a devastated family and an expensive murder inquiry. This is a crime disproportionately affecting young people. Nearly a third of victims were under 30. Nearly a fifth were under 20, and that is a huge worry for the police and youth workers. In the West Midlands, knife crime has risen by 96 since 2013, with eight fatal knife attacks this year, along with manchester and london the highest rate in the country. Here, they say, Violent Crime has moved beyond just those involved in gangs. It is across all people now, and were seeing what used to be a small act of violence, perhaps a slap or a punch, turn into something far more serious. But two promising signs. In 95 of the 100 cases, someone has been arrested and in london the metropolitan Police Recently Released figures suggesting a 10 fall in knife crime resulting in an injury. Tom symonds, bbc news. This years fatal stabbings have been documented on the bbc news website. The page is updated as Police Investigations into the killings progress, and when Court Proceedings get under way.

Ill be back with more on those stories just after three thirty a neo nazi who planned to murder the labour mp, rosie cooper, has been jailed for life at the old bailey. 23 year old jack renshaw, from skelmersdale in lancashire, was told he must serve at least 20 years in prison. 0ur correspondent, angus crawford, was in court. The judge described renshaw as undoubtedly a dangerous offender with twisted political beliefs. She sentenced him to life in prison and said he must serve a minimum of 20 years before being considered eligible for release. He is already in prison, serving time for inciting racial hatred and also for grooming children online. Now, we have to go back to july of 2017. He was in a pub with other far right activists and he said he wanted to kill his mp, his local mp, rosie cooper, to in his words send a message to the state. He also said he intended to kill a Police Officer who was investigating him. He said he wanted to die via what he called suicide by cop. He hoped responding officers would shoot him dead in what he called white jihad. But a source within that group told the police about his potential plans. He was arrested. They found a 19 inch blade in his house. He admitted his offences and today in court as he was being led down to the cells, a group of supporters in the Public Gallery said, were with you, jack. He responded by giving what appeared to be a nazi salute. Next week it will be two years since the bomb at Manchester Arena which killed 22 people.

We have been told we reached the limit of their tolerance regarding politics, but at the same time we are told they cannot change our views. We have to show the people what you are wearing. Despite a campaign from pro palestinian supporters it is business as normal. 0ne pro palestinian supporters it is business as normal. One reason for thatis business as normal. One reason for that is that eurovision has its own politics. The politics of diversity, inclusiveness and this is shown by last yea rs inclusiveness and this is shown by last years minor. Sometime actor eurovision was find it in order to heal everyone. You can see in eurovision on one stage people from all ethnicities, gender, sexual preferences. Religion equal. Finally, madonna.

Caroline, this year in tel aviv it is controversial. As always. Yet, people will watch in the millions. There are many people who think they should not be taking part in tel aviv, on the other hand as surie says all these people in the room are not people making political decisions.

Surie im going to ask you something controversial, does the music matter . Yes, music matters so much, it is the thing we can all emotionally connected. It gives us rest from the meaningful conversations that we have to have about global issues, but musical stories help us to share, it is precious. Do the votes reflect the talent . The best combination of performance and staging well when. In terms of this year, if we look at the music, who would you back . Not the music, who would you back . Not the uk, i have to say.

Ijust wonder, where their moments this time last year where you were pinching yourself and thinking is this really happening . Yes, of course.

And today hes in gloucestershire, where most voters supported remain. Setting up their stall to keep britain in the eu. Hi, have you decided how you are voting . Would you like a leaflet . This may seem a difficult sell in our midlands region, where everywhere else except warwick combined three years ago for it the biggest proportion of the votes for a ratio of 624. Here, 56 of people voted to remain. 6 4. People do not understand the investment that is made by the eu in terms of the economy. Really, for some of us this is a proxy referendum, it is an opportunity to show ina referendum, it is an opportunity to show in a formalised way whether or not the premium voters are a strong as we feel it has become. Remain voters. Neither any mineral guide options . For the plato map political high ground, let us head for the hills.

Cross party talks on brexit collapse without a deal, Jeremy Corbyn blames the weakness and instability of the government. Surgeons have carried out the uks first keyhole surgery for a baby with spina bifida while he was still in the womb. The decision by the 0nline giant amazon to invest in food courier deliveroo has sent ripples round the market. Its good for deliveroo because its giving it more muscle to expand internationally, but its worrying for competitiors. Just eats shares are down around 7 while takeaway. Com, listed in amsterdam, is off 2. 5 and delivery hero, listed in frankfurt, is down 5 . Airline easyjets first half loss before tax has increased. It blames fuel price increases, the impact of currency movements, and the impact of drones at gatwick in december. Latest from British Steel. Talks are restarting what they are looking for is a bailout, the money from the loan is going to run out and they are saying they are facing continuing brexit issues. In a way, the government has this choice, hand out £75 or so, nationalise it and let it fail, those are the three things that are on the table. We said they do not know what weight is going to go. In many ways, politically possibly keeping going at this delicate, probably seems to be the best option. 0n the other hand keeping what many people say. The weakness of the pound makes its season over seas better, but it increases the price of raw materials. Pulled facts about Mental Health awareness week. It is said that one in six people are suffering from Mental Health problems. I know some of these figures are slightly ballpoint figures, on the other hand, anywhere between costing the economy 25 billion that is a serious problem and something that ought to be dealt with. They reckon about 12 , about one in eight people, sufferfrom, sorry, one in eight locations where people take time off work is because of Mental Illness. The other thing you have to remember is that Mental Illness makes physical illness worse. The two things get combined. You take a week off because youre feeling awful, a lot of that could be Mental Health and you do not acknowledge that. We can talk to one person, one company who is dealing with this and look at the way they are dealing with this. A Company Called clea rscore. Are dealing with this. A Company Called clearscore. What are you doing . He has something called an ambassador programme, how does that work . Clearscore, what we are trying to do is try to create a space where people can talk about all aspects of their well being. From Mental Health through to their physical health and we have Mental Health ambassadors who are part of a team, they are specially trained individuals who their colleagues can be non in times when they are maybe going through something. Confidentially they can talk to those ambassadors and that allows them and outputs where they can talk about what is going on and access further services. Why did you start to do this . Was it because had a problem as a company . Boy because you how about it and thought it was something you should do . M you how about it and thought it was something you should do . It is deeper than that. Of my 25 year career deeper than that. Of my 25 year career that have been several times i have battled with my own Mental Health, i have had depressive episodes and i worked in companies where i could not talk about what i was going through, or at least i felt that way. I was lucky enough that through my friends and family i could get support and help and that allowed me to recover and continue to be productive and to build my company as i had done. So, as i created my company i really wanted to create a company where people could come to work, bring their whole selves and to be able to talk about everything that they were going through. Very see people wake up going through. Very see people wake up in the morning and think, i have a Mental Health problem. That is just not how it happens. How do get on that point where you just feel rubbish to the point where youre actually acknowledging and accepting the fact that she had a Mental Health problem . It is a complex issue, there is no doubt about that. What were to do is create communications as conversations across the organisation, across the team around things like anxiety. How are you feeling . By having that conversation and by having trained individuals within the team that allows us to identify the signals where somebody might not even realise that they are going through a battle with their Mental Health and it allows them to have further conversations which will hopefully keep them productive. That is very interesting, thank you. Now lets step back in history theres an ancient legend dating back to the reign of king charles the second that if the ravens that live at the tower of london ever leave, the tower will crumble and the kingdom will fall. Well, the london landmark is doing its best to avoid that threat, because for the first time in 30 years four raven chicks have hatched at the tower. Well, we can go now to the tower of london where im joined by the ravenmaster himself, chris. Now, chris, this is exciting news. Telus what has happened. We have had some magnificent checks born here at the tower of london. Quite unexpected to be honest, but we have them and it is marvellous. You say it is unexpected, but, they were two ravens brought in last year but there is very much in mind. They are our breeding pairof there is very much in mind. They are our breeding pair of ravens and we needed to have some quieter barbecue to get them to do their business. So, a quiet area. To get them to do their business. So, a quietarea. It to get them to do their business. So, a quiet area. It is a huge move from one location to another so it is quite unexpected that they settled into the tower and tarot life here and we have some beautiful ravens. Over recent years there were concerns that the numbers were getting very low. I know you are ask this every day on the tears, this legend, people are worried about it. If the ravens leave the tab i will crumble. 0f if the ravens leave the tab i will crumble. Of course, we want to make sure that the legends associated with the ravens continue on with the future generations. So, we thought it would be a nice idea to start our own breeding programme, which we did and it has been successful. Do they have names . Centre back currently, no. We have one that will stay here at the tower of london. It was born on the 23rd of april and so we thought we would call it george. 0r, because we do not know the secs, georgina. What was that noise . because we do not know the secs, georgina. What was that noise . I am not sure. In terms of the tower of london, it is synonymous with ravens. Just explain how important they have become. They are a real big attraction for the tower. Visitors come to see the crown jewels, but they also come to find out the legends. King charles ii order despite six ravens be held in the tower of london for ever more by royal decree. Do we have six . No, we have a fair few more. Had their wings being clipped . Have a fair few more. Had their wings being clipped . No, that is something that we used to do. I have been the master of ravens for 56 yea rs been the master of ravens for 56 years and i have changed the method of keeping them here at the tower of london. We asked them to stay here willingly rather than forcing them to stay. So when it comes to the tower of london, the ravens do fly around nowadays. I can tell you that food is involved. What is the best pa rt food is involved. What is the best part about being a master of ravens . It is quite a unique title, isnt it . I think it is the only official one in the world. The most amazing thing about it is that i get to spend most of my time with some magnificent ravens, they are beautiful creatures. Congratulations, chris. Good to talk to you. Time for the weather.

Legend has it that that if the ravens at the tower of london ever leave, the kingdom will fall. Luckily for all of us, some chicks have hatched , well bring you the story later this hour. Hello everyone this is afternoon live, im simon mccoy. Cross party talks to try to break the brexit impasse have collapsed without agreement. The labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, said the negotiations , which have lasted six weeks, had gone as far as they could. He blamed what he called the increasing weakness and instability of the government. Theresa may said labour hadnt been clear on whether or not it wanted another referendum. It comes after the Prime Minister promised to set a timetable for leaving downing street. Heres our Political Correspondent, chris mason. Election events are usually full of whoops and cheers, but can you even see many smiles in this room . No, me neither. Next thursday we will be Holding European elections. The conservative party didnt want to be fighting these. We wanted to be out of the eu. In fact, if parliament had backed our brexit deal, we could have already left the eu. The Prime Minister is in bristol fighting an election she didnt want as talks with labour over a brexit compromise collapse. There have been areas we have been able to find Common Ground but other issues have proved to be more difficult, and in particular we havent been able to overcome the fact that there isnt a common position in labour about whether they want to deliver brexit or hold a second referendum which could reverse it. For six weeks, 42 days to be precise, labour and the conservatives have been negotiating, trying to find an island of agreement in a vast ocean of division. We shouldnt be that surprised that this morning Jeremy Corbyn said these talks have now reached what i believe to be a natural conclusion. The pm has announced the date she is leaving, there have been increasing noises off stage by conservative cabinet members who dont agree with the talks and discussions being held so we are concluding the talks. So what on earth happens now . A Gridlocked Parliament in a divided country. There are only two ways out of the brexit crisis we have. Either parliament agrees a deal or we go back to the british people and ask them to make the choice, and i think this brings the prospect of a confirmatory referendum closer, although there is not yet a majority for it in parliament. Morning. Will you be running for leader, mr Cerny Michael gove . 0ne snazzy suitcase, one question on this answer. The most important thing we need to do is to focus on the fact that the government are drawing forward a bill which will allow us to leave the european union. A loyal nonanswer, not a denial. Anotherfront union. A loyal nonanswer, not a denial. Another front door, union. A loyal nonanswer, not a denial. Anotherfront door, the union. A loyal nonanswer, not a denial. Another front door, the same question and no answer at all. But we do know borisjohnson wants the job. Do you think you are too divisive to be tory Prime Minister. The contest for the biggest prize in politics is under way, but before that, the slog of a search to sort brexit trundles on. 0ur Political Correspondent Jonathan Blake is at westminster. What happens now . That is the question, as it stands, parliament will get an opportunity to vote on the Withdrawal Agreement fell in the first full week in june. That legislation were put in place the brexit deal that theresa may struck with the eu all those weeks and months ago. It is also an opportunity, crucially, for mps to tinker around the edges, get rid of things and that is what the government hopes will be the key to possibly getting something through parliament and making brexit happen before that 0ctober deadline. Maybe evenin before that 0ctober deadline. Maybe even in the summer. It is a big ask, all the things labour mps will want to cr perhaps things conservative mps will not vote for any million yea rs mps will not vote for any million years and vice versa. But will be an effort to make sure that legislation goes through parliament and nature mps have an opportunity to tinker with it and try to shape the form of brexit. Not necessarily the Withdrawal Agreement, which the eu has said is locked down and will not change. But the future negotiating position, what the shape of britains future relationship with the eu may turn out to be. And then, we may also see before that a series of votes in parliament, the pm entered in this, speaking at that event earlier on. A series of votes. Again, there will be an attempt to try and find a consensus in parliament buying one particular outcome of brexit. It has not managed to do that so far, so that is another tall order. and remember that all this week weve been interviewing representatives from parties contesting the eu elections. Today its the turn of change uk, so if you have a question, send them in via text on 61124, tweet using the hashtag bbc ask this, or email ask this at bbc dot co dot uk. Ben brown will put a selection of your questions to the change uk mp, chuka umunna, at 5 30pm doctors have used keyhole surgery to repair the spine of a baby with spina bifida while still inside the womb. A team at Kings College hospital in london performed the operation. Its not a cure for the condition, but for some children, it might mean they are eventually able to walk. Heres our health correspondent, james gallagher. Baby jaxson is just a few weeks old, but more than two months ago, he had pioneering surgery on his spine. Doctors operated onjaxson while he was still inside his mothers womb. His mum, sherrie, said it was a shock to find out he had spina bifida. It was a very high risk pregnancy from the start anyway, through being told i couldnt have babies and everything. So any decision weve had to make, ive made it purely for the fact that hes meant to be here. You know, its hesjust hes fought every day. It was these pregnancy scans that showed jaxsons spine and spinal cord were not developing properly. Spina bifida can lead to paralysis and affect bladder and bowel control, but surgery in the womb can reduce the risk of complications later in life. We are operating on very delicate structures. The foetus nerves, that they are exposed, the foetus itself is very small, and we are operating on a foetus inside the womb, so obviously its a very delicate operation. This is how it works. Three small incisions were made in sherries bump. A thin camera and small surgical tools were inserted into her womb, then surgeons put the spinal cord back in place and put a patch over the wound. Spina bifida cannot be completely cured, but surgeons help operating inside the womb can transform lives. Its quite important because certainly improving the function of lower limbs may be the difference between someone walking and someone not walking later in life, so a significant improvement in a significant number of patients, but not a cure. Jaxsons still being looked after in neonatal intensive care, but he should be ready to go home soon. His family hope theyve given him the best start in life. James gallagher, bbc news. The best start in life. The inquest into the London Bridge attack has heard how an off duty nurse tried to save one of the victims , before being stabbed to death herself. Its also heard the testimony of a Police Officer who described how he took on all three London Bridge attackers as they set upon him like a wolf pack. Eight people were killed in the attack injune 2017. We can speak to our correspondentjon donnison. The evidence from the Police Officer was very moving. Quite astonishing, he had been on patrol expecting may bea he had been on patrol expecting may be a bit of trouble around London Bridge because of the Champions League final taking place that saturday night. He walked into so much more. Having seen some panic around London Bridge, he then saw one of the attackers stabbing a man one of the attackers stabbing a man on the ground. The pc told the court that he raised his bat on, took a deep breath and knew he was in for a fight and charged. He managed to beat the first attacker to the ground, as he did that, he felt a sudden blow to his head. He said it publicly had been hit by a crowbar. It was a second attacker. The third attacker then appeared. He continued to single handedly beat off these three men. He said he told themselves there was a voice in his head saying do not go down, do not go down, just try and hold on. Until help arrives. He was stabbed eight times any fight that ensued, the three attackers eventually backed off and fled. Pc marx had lost the vision in one eye temporarily and a few minutes later those attackers we re few minutes later those attackers were shot dead by armed police.

And rory mcilroy is on course at the us pga championship and on course for a weekend off. He dropped five shots in his first three holes to slip 14 off the pace at bethpage black. Ill be back with more on those stories just after half past. More now on breakdown of talks on brexit between labour and the conservatives. In a letter to the Prime Minister, Jeremy Corbyn said the talks had ended because of the increasing weakness and instability of the government. Theresa may is now considering whether to hold further indicative votes in parliament, in an attempt to find a consensus among mps. Lets speak now to the liberal democrat mp sir ed davey. Hes in our nottingham studio. You are warning on twitter quite recently of a tory labour brexit such up. It has not happened. There isa such up. It has not happened. There is a kind of calm before the european elections. The Prime Minister is extraordinarily weak, her own mps did not want to negotiate with labour. And the labour position is extremely confused, becauseJeremy Corbyn has never been able to make up his mind what he wants. He certainly cannot commit, as the lib dems have done, to getting people be final say. So i think theres a possibility they may resume these talks, who knows. It is chaos as it not . Chaos and mist. For conservatives and labour party to have brought our country to the situation is i think shocking. That is white liberal democrats have taken a real leadership position on this. They say let stop this and let the people have the final say. This. They say let stop this and let the people have the final saym this. They say let stop this and let the people have the final say. It is not a leadership position, it is a view. In terms of the debate, the conservative party is deeply split, the labour party is split with some wanting the brexit and not. The lib dems are taking the lead in this debate saying let us stop brexit. It is at disaster for this country, but because were democrats we believe the people should have the final say. Theresa may would point out there is another chance any 1st of june two vote on this deal, there is a way through this. Is a not ironic she wants to bring her deal back to parliament three, four times, probably a fifth time. Mps are a p pa re ntly probably a fifth time. Mps are apparently allowed to change their mind by the Prime Minister, but the british people are not allowed even a second chance. I think that is hypocritical of the Prime Minister and then i do not think she is to get a fourth attempt through and what has to happen is a referendum, you final say for the british people, with perhaps the Prime Ministers deal on the ballot paper against the option of staying in the european union. That is what the liberal democrats want, we would argue for stopping brexit in such a peoples vote. And i think that is what parliament should now decide. What about those euro elections if there is a big push for nigel faris and his party, where does that leave you . Nigel faraj. Young or our poll rating has been increasing so significantly off the back of being a winner in the local elections across england. So the lib dems, making this stop brexit arguments seem to be bringing up the remain parties with others losing votes to us parties with others losing votes to us and liberal democrats taking on nigel for ass brexit party. So who knows what the final result will be. But i believe the lib dems will be the main party. Brexit. The more voters the main party. Brexit. The more vote rs co m e the main party. Brexit. The more voters come behind us and the more we can take on nigel farage and when this debate. Is there no case to be made that this takes us to the next step, which is what the public want, to move onto the next stage . step, which is what the public want, to move onto the next stage . I do believe the public want to move on and get this out of the way, but the problem is with theresa mays deal, it does not do that. It is just the first step. Then our are two, three orfour first step. Then our are two, three or four years more first step. Then our are two, three orfour years more negotiating on the political agreement. If you go down the lib dems approach, you can have a vote, a final vote this year. And if people take the liberal democrat position of stop brexit and vote to remain in that referendum, the whole thing will go away. It will be settled, we can get back to debating the real issue is the matter to people and their families like the nhs, stopping the cuts to school budgets, backing a police against the rise in Violent Crime that the tories are allowing to happen. We really have to get back to these bread and butter issues that liberal democrats have been arguing about. The best way to do thatis arguing about. The best way to do that is to get over this brexit mist, and the best way to do that is to have a vote by the british people we re to have a vote by the british people were people vote to remain. Full list of those taking part in the euro elections is on the bbc website. A neo nazi who planned to murder the labour mp, rosie cooper, has beenjailed for life at the old bailey. 23 year old jack renshaw, from skelmersdale in lancashire, was told he must serve at least 20 years in prison. 0ur correspondent, angus crawford, was in court. The judge described renshaw as undoubtedly a dangerous offender with twisted political beliefs. She sentenced him to life in prison and said he must serve a minimum of 20 years before being considered eligible for release. He is already in prison, serving time for inciting racial hatred and also for grooming children online. Now, we have to go back to july of 2017. He was in a pub with other far right activists and he said he wanted to kill his mp, his local mp, rosie cooper, to in his words send a message to the state. He also said he intended to kill a Police Officer who was investigating him. He said he wanted to die via what he called suicide by cop. He hoped responding officers would shoot him dead in what he called white jihad. But a source within that group told the police about his potential plans. He was arrested. They found a 19 inch blade in his house. He admitted his offences and today in court as he was being led down to the cells, a group of supporters in the Public Gallery said, were with you, jack. He responded by giving what appeared to be a nazi salute. Next week it will be two years since the bomb at Manchester Arena which killed 22 people. The youngest person to die was 8 year old saffie roussos. ani her mother lisa was badly injured in the attack, but after extensive surgery and rehabilitation shes now preparing to walk the route of the great manchester run this weekend. She has given her first broadcast interview alongside her husband andrew, to our correspondentjudith moritz. I dont really remember a lot. I remember leaving, and saffie had got my hand, this hand, and she was pulling, jumping about. My arm was outstretched, holding her hand as she was pulling me, and the next minute ijust hit the floor with a thud. I remembered until i woke up. How many weeks later . Six weeks. Six weeks later. What happened at that point . Andrew was with you. Andrew was with me, and i can remember thinking, well, why has he not mentioned saffie . And i knew, ijust knew. I thought, if im this badly hurt, and she was a tiny eight year old, then what chance would she have . Like an intuition . Yes. Did you ask the question . I said, shes gone, isnt she . It is a painful moment. I cant talk about it. Because it is so raw, and it is two years on. It makes no difference at all, does it . No, it doesnt. Still like yesterday. And for you over the last two years, balancing your bereavement, your loss, with your recovery, how have those two things been possible . Ifelt like i needed to be strong, and i needed to be the best i could be before i could deal with the loss of saffie. I had to learn to walk again. The first few steps around the ward, i felt like id run a marathon, didnt i . I was out of breath, sweating. It was only about five steps. Taking part in the great manchester run has given you a goal, has it . Yes, its let me look further into the future than i normally do. And its the start of the charity, the launch of the charity, so its all good and positive. The charity needs to be there to help victims of terrorism. There is no help. Do you feel let down . By the government, definitely. It was offered £5,500 each for the death of saffie. Through the Compensation Scheme . Through the Compensation Scheme, thats the maximum. Its a complete insult. Taking part in the run in manchester, how will that feel, do you think, being back here . I know its going to be emotional, not just for me, for all of us thats walking. But its a good thing, and we need we need it, dont we . Something goods got to come out of something so awful. Its got to. Well, in response, the government says it has worked to ensure victims of terrorism receive effective and comprehensive support which includes a 24 hour support line. The aircraft manufacturer boeing says it has completed a Software Update for its 737 max model, which was grounded following fatal crashes in indonesia and ethiopia.

If theyre found to have violated finacial fair play regulation they could be banned from the Champions League. Guardiola says he feels people want to find city guilty. We are innocent until proven, i am sorry. I have said many times if we decide we have done something wrong then 0k we will be banned, we will be punished they decide. But we are innocent right now.

Now on afternoon live, lets go nationwide and see whats happening around the country, in our daily visit to the bbc newsrooms around the uk. Were going to steve knibbs in gloucester. Steve has spent a shift with the Mental Health team in a Gloucestershire Hospitals a e department. What does the Mental Health team do . Well, simon, they worked here and also the other hospital in gloucestershire stop if you look at the patients that come in through the patients that come in through the front were, either through the Emergency Department or for scheduled appointments, the doctors deal with this physical injuries and illnesses and take account of the Mental Health issues of those patients. But once the physical nature of the illness or injury has been patched up, this Mental Health liaison team, have referrals to them from the doctors and nurses here and deal with the patients to look more in depth at the Mental Health issues. To look at the care plan and what needs to happen. Whether the patients are safe to be discharged back home, whether marconi is be put into place. Two of the case studies we looked at during the shift where extremes. A 16 Year Old Girl who had been brought in having taken an overdose and a 95 euros man with dementia who are suffering with delirium. Showing both ends of the scale. Speaking to the manager of the Mental Health liaison team, he says over the years they had been working in partnership the acute hospital, marrying the physical and mental treatment for these patients is really paying off. If i try and treat you in the absence of your Mental Health, ignore your emotional and psychological well being. Our research has been quite clear that we can significantly improve someone because my physical health by improving their mental well being. Steve, we have just been steve, we havejust been marking Mental Health awareness week. Has there been an increase in demand for there been an increase in demand for the service . Yes, i think the team here at like many nhs departments across the country say there is a demand for their work. It is a steady rise, it is not increasing in big chunks every year, but as an example of the senior deal with over 3000 Mental Health patients every year a cross 3000 Mental Health patients every year across these two acute hospitals. The majority of those people of working age coming in with anxiety, depression is, injuries and Mental Health problems as a result of self harm. As a rough statistic, if you look at around 20 of the population they had a Mental Health problem at some point. 2000 beds in this hospital, 20 of the staff. There is a growing demand, they want to try and deal with everybody and it is theyre working on. To try and deal with everybody and it is theyre working on. Your working for points west and there will be more at the 6 30pm show in that region. Yes, we have been working with the team here at gloucestershire and you can hear this report on the radio as well. Steve, very good to talk to. If you would like to see more and any of the stories you can access them via the iplayer. A reminder, we go nationwide every weekday afternoon at 4 30pm here on afternoon at 4 30pm here on afternoon lie. Now lets step back in history theres an ancient legend dating back to the reign of king charles the second that if the ravens that live at the tower of london ever leave the tower will crumble, and the kingdom will fall. Well the london landmark is doing its best to avoid that threat, because for the first time in 30 years four raven chicks have hatched at the tower. Earlier i spoke to the ravenmaster himself, chris skaife from the tower of london. We have had some magnificent chicks born here at the tower of london. Quite unexpected to be honest, but we have them and it is marvellous. You say it is unexpected, but, there were two ravens brought in last year with this very much in mind. They are our breeding pair of ravens and we needed to have some quieter barbecue to get them to do their business. It is a huge move from one location to another so it is quite unexpected that they settled into the tower and tarot life here and we have some beautiful ravens. 0ver recent years there were concerns that the numbers were getting very low. I know you are ask this every day on the tours, this legend, people are worried about it. If the ravens leave the tower will crumble. Of course, we want to make sure that the legends associated with the ravens continue on with the future generations. So, we thought it would be a nice idea to start our own breeding programme, which we did and it has been successful. Do they have names . Currently, no. We have one that will stay here at the tower of london. It was born on the 23rd of april and so we thought we would call it george. 0r, because we do not know the sex, georgina. What was that noise . I am not sure. In terms of the tower of london, it is synonymous with ravens. Just explain how important they have become. They are a real big attraction for the tower. Visitors come to see the crown jewels, but they also come to find out the legends. King charles ii ordered six ravens be held in the tower of london for ever more by royal decree. Do we have six . No, we have a fairfew more. Had their wings being clipped . No, that is something that we used to do. I have been the master of ravens for 5 years and i have changed the method of keeping them here at the tower of london. We ask them to stay here willingly rather than forcing them to stay. So when it comes to the tower of london, the ravens do fly around nowadays. I can tell you that food is involved. What is the best part about being a master of ravens . It is quite a unique title, isnt it . I think it is the only official one in the world. The most amazing thing about it is that i get to spend most of my time with some magnificent ravens, they are beautiful creatures. Well we can just bring some comments by the first minister of scotland, nicola sturgeon. Shes been talking of course after that breakdown of talks between labour and the conservatiatives which were supposed to find a way forward. We will work with others across the uk to give people the final say. Any brexit deal agreed by westminster must be put to the people with remain an option on the ballot paper. If deal is the only alternative, article 50 must be revoked. Scotland must have the choice of becoming an independent european nation. Breaking news, there is anaemia on the list in scotland. Ia emu the list. Cross party talks on brexit collapse without a deal, Jeremy Corbyn blames the weakness and instability of the government.

The human cost of britains knife crime crisis the faces of a hundred lives lost this year, most of them male and under 30. Heres your business headlines on afternoon live. Talks to avert the collapse of British Steel are resuming today after the firm secured funds to stay afloat until the end of may. Sources close to owners Greybull Capital say its future will be discussed at ministerial level. British steel has admitted it needs further Financial Support from the government to help it address brexit related issues. The cbi has said the may parliamentary recess should be cancelled following the collapse of the cross party talks on brexit. Director general Carolyn Fairbairn said that business and the country needed an urgent resolution. She said this is no time for holidays. Its time to get on with it. Airline easyjets first half loss before tax has increased. It blames fuel price increases, the impact of currency movements, and the impact of drones at gatwick in december. So what kind of a day on the markets, thomas cook not doing so well . In many ways we knew about it yesterday, i think whats happened todayis yesterday, i think whats happened today is the fact that one of the big Analyst Companies has come up and said the shares are worthless. the figures. 4096. This isjust bouncing around at the bottom. I think once it goes below ten, it will really be a problem. Has not been this low since 2012. When we had the slump in passenger numbers, the company was really struggling at this point. But now itjust seems to be getting worse. I think we could be getting worse. I think we could be talking about some kind of administration in the next few days possibly. I do not know quite where we go from here. The branches of sleep quite good, but we have to see what develops over the next few days. Uncertainty over brexit, we have heard that before. But also, the good weather here in uk hit their demand. Apparently because people were so excited about the weather last year, now theyre looking at the weather at the moment, the lack of rain the moment. Interestingly, compared to figures from easyjet, theirfigures are up. They have just that a reasonably solid forecast together and they have said this is where we are going and things are not too bad. They have that problem is of the drones and just general problems in terms of field prices as well, the whole travel market is suffering somewhat. That is the suggestion that a company is worthless, that is the word you have used. Does that become a self filling prophecy . Belfast it can do. Unless they can come up with some solid evidence of how they body better. One of the other stocks i wa nt to better. One of the other stocks i want to mention. The reason for thatis want to mention. The reason for that is because of what is going on with amazon and delivery. Amazon has invested a certain amount of money, some are less then about £450 million, total capitalisation of the company is just over one point billion pounds. So it properly has about 20 of the company, maybe a little bit less. What people are worried about now, whats the competition is worried about is with amazons muscle in there whereby they go . It has got the money. Yes, it has the money and it was in that market but withdrew last year. Now it is coming in a different way by buying in an investment. It may want to try and take the deliveroo formula and get to the United States where deliveroo is not. It is not in the states on the wit about 15 other countries. A lot of marketjitters amongst the competition, mostly the European Food delivery companies. They are looking a little bit shaky. They are looking a little bit shaky. The other big thing is the pound, the pound is looking pretty weak. I am sure you could tell me why the pound is down. Certainly over brexit. I knew you would need i knew you would know that. Grumpy cat has passed away at the age of seven. In memory of grumpy cat we have resurrected a clip. This is not just any cat we have resurrected a clip. This is notjust any old cat, this is grumpy cat. 0therwise she is called that i do not know, because she is absolutely perfect. Look at her lovely little face. She is over here because she will be the first cat in history to have a waxwork made of her. She has been so placid, very happy. See, grumpy . How can you call her, because mike she isjust gorgeous. It is very clear why she is called grumpy. Anyway, she died at the age of seven. Pro palestinian supporters have called for a boycott of eurovision, over fears they are planning to disrupt it. This is from tel aviv. Eurovision very much prides itself on being a celebration of inclusiveness, but the question this year is very much about exactly whos going to be coming to the party. This is hatari from iceland. They had doubts about coming to israel because of the palestinian conflict. And now they are here, they are under strict orders from the ebu, the european broadcasting union. Youve been told no politics on stage. Yes. Which is impossible and a paradox. Have you been told to stop talking about politics offstage . Yes, but the line is blurry. Weve been warned. Weve been told weve reached the limit of the ebus tolerance regarding politics. But at the same time, weve been told they cant change our views. Oh, my god, we have to show the people what youre wearing. Its insane. So, despite a campaign from pro palestinian groups for a cultural boycott, its pretty much business as normal. But one reason for that is that eurovision has its own politics. The politics of equality, inclusiveness and diversity, a point championed by last years israeli winner, netta. Eurovision was founded in order to heal up everyone. You can see in eurovision on one stage people from every ethnicity, gender, sexual preferences, religion, equal. And finally, madonna has she signed the paperwork . Will she actually perform . I spoke to a eurovision insider. I have heard madonnas voice inside that arena, and it wasnt a cd. Your confident, saturday night . Im quietly confident. Ill put a shekel or two on it. David silito, bbc news, tel aviv. Thats it from your afternoon live team for today, next the bbc news at 5pm with ben brown. Nick millerjoined me with the weather earlier im afraid were going to have to show you that all over again. Eurovision tomorrow . People will be seen that thinking they have seen everything now. Theres a weather theme too many songs in eurovision nick . Youd be surprised how many people have been singing in the rain. It has rained on stage, thunder and lightning. I thought we would celebrate the brotherhood of man, 1976, save all your kisses for me. There is a weather theme in one of the songs coming up that you can see on saturday evening in tel aviv. This is from estonia. One of the lyrics. Not only is about the weather, it reads like a Public Information service. But you have to sing it to me. I dont actually know the rhythm. I would be better off doing brotherhood of man. So let me take you back to 1983. A time i know is difficult for you to remember. A classic from the 1983 eurovision contest. Let us take a look. We got you, we got him. I have had to watch that for 30 seconds. It is so long ago. No one would notice if they put that back in and i think it would win. Only the word hurricane featured in that in english, so however, translation for you of what else they were seeing. The apostrophe was that when i looked it up.
