This mornings reviewers are james millar and dave wooding. A recording has emerged of dramatic radio exchanges between a Royal Navy Warship and irans revolutionary guard, moments before a british based oil tanker was seized in the gulf. Stena impero was boarded on friday in the strait of hormuz a key shipping route. The foreign secretary, jeremy hunt, has urged iran to release the vessel and its crew. And in the last few minutes, irans ambassador to the uk has tweeted warning the uk government against escalating tension saying it would be quite dangerous and unwise at a sensitive time in the region. This report from ramzan karmali. The seizing of a british flag tanker, the stena impero, by the Iranian Revolutionary guard. Iran says it was breaking maritime rules. The owners of the tanker insist it was obeying International Law. The British Government has condemned irans actions. We are calling on iran to reverse this illegal act, we are looking for ways to de escalate the situation but we will do what it takes to ensure the security and safety of british and international shipping. The tanker was intercepted as it made its way through the strait of hormuz in omani waters. It made a sharp turn towards iran. If you obey you will be safe. Alter your course. That was the message from iran to the stena impero, and dramatic footage has emerged that appeared to show the hms montrose trying to stop the siege of the tanker, but it was too far away to intervene. Skinner imperial, this is a british warship foxtrot 236. As you are conducting transit passage in an international straight, under international straight, under International Law your progress must not be hampered. Please confirm. Confirm. Please confirm that you are not intending to violate International Law by unlawfully attempting to board. The foreign secretary will update mps on monday what further measures the government will take, the threat level has been raised to the highest level of alert. Our middle east correspondent tom bateman joins us now live from fujairah in the united arab emirates. Tom, how is this stand off between the british and iranians going down in the region . I think it is leading to increased anxiety here. You can hearin to increased anxiety here. You can hear in that tape, the radio exchanges between the Royal Navy Frigate and they albanian patrol boat out in the waters here, just how tense these moments have become. The british warship was racing towards trying to defend the tanker but unable to reach it in time. I think there is a sense of concern that continues among seafarers here. What we have now is that crew of 23, they were expecting a routine voyage west, now due to spend their second full day of the coast of orion in the opposite direction with yet another day of uncertainty about their fates. In terms of trying to provide protection for commercial vessels while the situation continues, there has been talk of a multinational naval operation. Is there any sign that will happen . Not yet. There is a call for a surveillance fleet and also one that can offer military protection to battlefield. The americans are due to ta ke battlefield. The americans are due to take part in a conference in bahrain in the coming weeks that is due to look at ways to try and achieve this naval mission, but there have been some pretty mixed m essa 9 es there have been some pretty mixed messages coming from the white house in the last few weeks. At one point, donald trump was then that it should be the asian nations to pay for their own protection because most of their own protection because most of the oil goes east to countries like china and japan. At the same time, the americans have demanded freedom of navigation here. Meanwhile, you have a lively debate going on in the uk about whether the royal navy has the resources to protect british flagships here because there is currently only one operational vessel of significant size, the frigate that is trying to do that job. There is more on the way, but the question is whether it is adequate. Now you have the uk government advising british shipping to stay away. Tom, this all follows a series of incidents which have been attributed to a ram but which have not been proved to be by around involving attacks on tankers. Is there a sense that even if the situation is resolved with britain, that the wider dispute means that we can expect more problems of this kind through the straits of hormuz . Yes, of course, because in the space of six weeks to sort the sabotage of six different tankers out here in this particular part of the gulf. They were widely attributed to a ram, but they iranians denied every single one of those. What is going on here, you have to remember the underlying context of this is the 2015 nuclear deal, the americans pulled out of that last year and imposed crippling sanctions that have affected the iranian economy. Iran is trying to prove that it can strike back economically, and impounding oil tankers is one way of doing that. They regard this as retaliation for British Royal marines stopping a tanker earlier this month. They really and said that was illegal because the oil wasnt due for syria, and even if it was, the eu sanctions wouldnt have covered what the british and Gibraltar Authorities did in that case. They are demanding the release of that tanker. Meanwhile, they hold this british flagged vessel and its crew of 23. John bateman, thank you very much. Thejustice secretary, david gauke, has warned he will quit the government if borisjohnson becomes Prime Minister. Mr gauke has told the sunday times he could not serve under a leader who plans to persue a no deal brexit. Theresa mays successor will be announced on tuesday. Our Political Correspondent nick eardley is here. In one sense, no great surprise, but quite a lot of surprise the way this campaign is being conducted. People are quite openly criticising the man who is yet to even become Prime Minister. We still have in theory 72 hours left of this leadership. Sorry, 48 hours left. If you speak to anybody in westminster they are all preparing for borisjohnson entering number ten. That is why david gauke has come out this morning. He is getting in there before he can be sacked. We know that david gauke and a bunch of current serving ministers have real concerns that borisjohnson has said end of october, no matter what, we will get out of the European Union. They think leaving without the deal would be bad for the country and the economy. Although david gauke is the first of them, i suspect he would be the last. In terms of what this means for Boris Johnsons the last. In terms of what this means for borisjohnsons ability to build the governments that encompasses both enthusiastic brexiteers back in his campaign and those either in favour of the soft brexit or those who wish brexit wasnt happening at all, does it suggest he will be seeking to reach out . It suggest that he would have many of the same problems theresa may had, which is a party that is bitterly split on the issue, with some people prepared to do whatever they need to make sure that the thing they are most concerned about doesnt happen. In the end, it was the brexiteers that brought down theresa may, the 25 or so that under no circumstances would back the deal she came back with. We know that borisjohnson she came back with. We know that Boris Johnson probably has she came back with. We know that borisjohnson probably has a similar number of conservative mps really concerned about his plan to leave without a deal. It shows he will face real problems, even if he tries to unite the party after taking over, assuming that is what happens. Notjust on the home front, we are seeing it internationally, as well. His big plan is to go back to europe and get rid of the backstop, or relief without a deal. The Irish Foreign minister this morning in the sunday times saying we want to work with whoever the new Prime Minister is, we dont want the backstop to happen, but the fundamentals are the same. Simon coveney is also warning that although there might be a new Prime Minister, the Withdrawal Agreement will not change. In terms of what is in the Withdrawal Agreement and the reluctance of the European Union and the Irish Government to reopen this, the stress and trauma of getting something agreed, in those circumstances, britain leaves on the 31st of october. Presumably the numbers at westminster make it hard to see a situation where that could easily be changed unless the Prime Minister were to stand up and say, ive decided we need an extension. Welcome to the big unknown at this whole process. There is an almighty parliamentary battle coming, it might make some of the things you have seen in the past few months chicken feed. The big battle if there is no brexit deal will be whether or not parliament can block new deal. We saw in the last few days parliament has created a window of opportunity where we expect it will try to pass legislation which would amend the withdrawal act, meaning that the uk government can sign up to no deal. The problem there is twofold. The Prime Minister needs to go to brussels and asked foran needs to go to brussels and asked for an extension and borisjohnson will do that unless he has to. Secondly, europe needs to say yes. There are some in brussels then, why are we still doing this, why are we still having these conversations every few months . Lets get on with it. It is another extension the best thing that could be done . Tuesday, wednesday, we will get clarity on the new occupant of number ten. Next week we will get a lot of hints as to how they will precede the first few months in power. In terms of clarity and certainty, you wouldnt bet on it. Thank you. British Airways Flights between london and cairo remain suspended until at least friday because of what the airline has described as a safety precaution. No further details have been given. The german carrier lufthansa also abruptly cancelled flights to cairo yesterday, but its services are expected to resume today. The last minute cancellation of the flight to cairo caused anger and confusion. One passenger, due to fly to her sisters wedding with her husband and two children, says she now faces a huge bill to rebook. I dont know what to do, i cant even tell my sister the flight is cancelled, my kids are feeling disappointed, very, very disappointed. I had to tell them the truth that we are not going. It may be very inconvenient for some travellers, but this plane crash is the spectre that looms behind the cancellations. In 2015, a russianjet plunged into the sinai desert, killing all 222 passengers on board. Britain was one of the first countries to warn it was most likely a terrorist attack. Other nations followed the uk in stopping flights out of sharm el sheikh. It is now thought it was blown up by a bomb smuggled on board at the airport. So far, the cancellations only affect ba flights to cairo, other destinations in egypt are not affected. The Foreign Office has updated its travel advice, saying there is a heightened risk of terrorism against aviation. It says extra security measures are in place for british planes leaving egypt. Im joined now from Heathrow Airport by simon calder, presenter of the bbcs travel show and travel editor of the independent. Good morning, simon. This is not the most terrible thing that could have happened, but presumably it will be pretty disruptive at the start of the school holidays. Yes, it is. Here we are at yours busiest airport, a perfectly normal sunday morning, except that British Airways flight 154, due to land around noon today, is not operating because the flight last night was cancelled. Other flights between because the flight last night was cancelled. Otherflights between the uk and egypt are going ahead perfectly normally. 30 minutes ago, the egypt flight to heathrow took off. It is currently over the south is due to arrive about 1 30pm this afternoon. Egypt air is putting on bigger planes hoping it will be able to pick up some of the passengers left stranded by to share ways. left stranded by to share waysm there any indication as to what has prompted the airline to react in this way . Well, weve hearing about the terrible fatal crash of october 2015 and there has been intense sensitivity about security at the egyptian airport since, particularly by the Foreign Office. That is why the uk remains the one country worth flights are bands from the main egyptian resort of sharm el shaq. There have been reports that british officials on wednesday and thursday we re officials on wednesday and thursday were looking closely at security arrangements at cairo airport. On friday afternoon, the Foreign Office turned round and said we are concerned about heightened threats to aviation and quite abruptly yesterday afternoon British Airways that we are cancelling flights for a week. If you want to book a flight for this time next sunday, you cannot British Airways. Ive never quite seen anything like this, where it is one specific airline on one specific route cancelled for a very specific route cancelled for a very specific length of time. It is baffling. It is not all the Airlines Acting in unison. If it is something that will only affect one airline, why was lufthansa involved . that will only affect one airline, why was lufthansa involved . I have spoken to thomas cook and easyjet, who will be operating their flights normally, for example today from birmingham and manchester from thomas cook to egypt. They believe they can conduct those operations perfectly safely. There will be some thousands of people who are due to travel to egypt in the coming weeks on holiday who may now be thinking im not too sure about going. At the moment, because the Foreign Office says it is ok to go but we are concerned about aviation, there is no grounds upon which you can change or cancel your trip without losing some or all of your money. If you we re some or all of your money. If you were planning to go to cairo, what would be your advice or good alternatives that will give you a similar experience, if you have the luxury to do that . British airways is rebooking people on other airlines. Egypt air is pretty much full until tuesday. There will be opportunities to travel via amsterdam, paris, frankfurtand opportunities to travel via amsterdam, paris, frankfurt and so on. Lufthansa cancelled their flights, but only the departures last night from frankfurt and munich and the return flights this morning. They said they counsel them just as a caution as they were assessing the situation. This time of year, most flights are full so there are relatively few Seats Available for people who need to get to egypt. Simon calder, thank you. The headlines on bbc news nato joins International Criticism of iran for seizing a british flagged oil tanker in the gulf. The justice secretary, david gauke, says hell resign on wednesday if borisjohnson becomes Prime Minister. All british Airways Flights to the egyptian capital, cairo, are suspended for at least the next six days as a security new legislation will make it illegal for companies to use gagging orders to prevent staff from reporting wrongdoing to the police or their doctor. The government proposals aim to tackle the misuse of non disclosure agreements in the workplace to cover up sexual harassment, Racial Discrimination or assault. Heres our business correspondent, katy austin. When someone leaves a job, signing a nondisclosure agreement sometimes nicknamed a gagging clause means what they know can be used against their old employer. Often it involves a payment that prevents them from discussing allegations publicly. Nondisclosure agreements have a range of uses. It can apply to commercially sensitive details such as inventions, but there has been growing concern, including from mps, about their use to cover up allegations of harassment or discrimination in the workplace. Last year, theresa may promised reforms to prevent their misuse. Not the department for business as changes to the law. Them being used to prevent people talking to police or other services about their allegations and make sure people fully understand what they are signing and their rights. It is also promising new measures to take action where the nondisclosure agreements dont follow the rules. In law who has been calling for reform says this is a stopper doesnt go far enough. You can tell the police, talk to your doctor, go toa the police, talk to your doctor, go to a lawyer, you can even talk to your priest. The problems are very many people in the real world will wa nt to many people in the real world will want to talk to their nearest and dearest and this reform doesnt allow them to do that.
