me. theresa may had promised to fix the housing and energy markets in between a coughing fit at the conference. letters fulfil our duty to britain and renew the british dream. but she had to deal with a prankster who handed her a fake p 45 form. he claimed at the request of the foreign secretary. boris asked me! boris, please, say you did this! president trump is in las vegas to pay his respects after the mass shooting. he praised hospital staff for their professionalism. after sunday's band referendum, catalonia prepares to declare independence from spain. but the european parliament's biggest from spain. but the european pa rliament‘s biggest blocs from spain. but the european parliament's biggest blocs on the left and right worn catalans not to do it unilaterally. they call it pointless and irresponsible. and the twin brothers who finally have an a nswer twin brothers who finally have an answer for what happened to their father in world war ii. police in las vegas say the gunman who shot 58 people and injured more than 500 before taking his own life had installed cameras in and

in 48 hours. gavin, thank you very much indeed. gavin lee in barcelona. theresa may has announced a series of measures ahead of the conservative party conference she's hoping will appeal to younger voters. there's to be a freeze on tuition fees and students won't have to start paying back loans until they're earning over £25,000 a year. the prime minister says these are the first steps in a wider review of university funding. labour, which has promised to abolish tuition fees, has called the proposals "desperate." 0ur political correspondent alex forsyth reports. the first day of conference. a big day for the prime minister. she has not had much to celebrate lately. theresa may knows she has got a lot to prove to her party and to voters. herfirst pitch is to prove to her party and to voters. her first pitch is to the younger generation with a promise to look again at the wayjewish and these work. when we said that policy what we expected for the range and diversity in the system. —— jewish and —— university fees. we have got to look at it again. in the meantime some changes

. ahead of britain's prime minister addressing european leaders, theresa may is offering more reassurance to eu citizens living in the uk about their rights after brexit. but trade looks like it's still off the agenda as the deadlock over cash continues. the us has said it holds myanmar‘s army accountable for the deepening rohingya refugee crisis in bangladesh. hundreds of thousands of people have fled myanmar, where they'd faced a military offensive. there are fears of food shortages in zimbabwe after it banned fruit and vegetable imports to help preserve its dwindling money reserves. most of the supply of groceries in the capital harare come from neighbouring south africa. now it's time for world business report. time tojoin now it's time for world business report. time to join sally. it's a $700 billion dollar relationship, but trade looks like it's still off the agenda in brexit talks as the deadlock over cash continues. plus, eyes on the prize! north american cities battle to host amazon's vast new headquarters. we're in a tough newjersey neighbourhood that is daring to

proceedings, so the ball is entirely in the uk court. but then here is theresa may earlier. as we look forward to the next stage, the ball is in their court, but i'm optimistic it will receive a positive response. that was theresa may speaking to british mps today. eu leaders are meant to meet in ten days to talk about post—brexit relations with the uk, including a new trade deal, but that's only if enough progress has been made in these initial talks. theresa may has talked of the possibility of a "unique and ambitious economic partnership." but she has a warning too. while i believe it is profoundly in all our interests for the negotiations to succeed, it is also oui’ negotiations to succeed, it is also our responsibility as a government to prepare for every eventuality. bbc political editor laura kuenssberg said may was explicitly spelling out the possibility of no deal. and this was from the former communications director for david cameron. alex forsyth is live with us cameron. alex forsyth is live with us in westminster, that might surprise some people, that those no deal prep

trying to punish us? absolutely! there seems to be a big hate campaign against theresa may all the time, like it is not really relevant if a piece of boarding falls down. also tonight, southern comfort. oxford and cambridge have too few students from the north of england. we'll hear about one way of solving the problem. and trevor noah gives us an outside perspective on the us. someone can get more offended that you're calling them a racist than at the fact that they are a racist. and that's become like a new thing that i've stumbled across. "how dare you call me a racist?" "well, how dare you be racist?" hello. so how is brexit going? looking at the outcome of the summit in brussels, and the fact that they're still not talking about the long—term brexit stuff, which is mostly trade, you could argue it is going off the rails. the eu is still holding out for more money, suggesting britain faces a ghastly choice between paying up and having a bad deal, or having no deal at all. but put on the happy glasses, you can look at it the other way — that there was a nuance shift in tone

, theresa may says she's resilient — and won't hide from a challenge. it comes as senior tories have been urging colleagues to stop the infighting and back the prime minister. spain's prime minister, mariano rajoy, says he won't rule out suspending catalonia's government, as tens of thousands of people take to the streets to call for talks. lewis hamilton takes a major step towards a fourth fi world title with victory at the japanese grand prix. coming up in a few minutes our sunday morning edition of the papers — this mornings reviewers are caroline crampton from the new statesman and peter conradi from the sunday times. before the papers — sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre, here's kathryn downes. good morning. lewis hamilton is closing in on a fourth world title after winning the japanese grand prix. he could win the championship at the next race in texas — after his nearest rival sebastian vettel had to retire again. nick parrott has the story. a show of gratitude for the mercedes car that has taken lewis hamilton to the brink of a fourth world title. consi

relations because not enough progress has been made on other issues. theresa may says she remains "ambitious and positive" about securing a partnership with the eu. the so—called divorce bill remains a major sticking point. the prime minister did not name any figures but indicated that in order to reach a deal with eu leaders, the uk will have to pay more than the £20 billion already promised. from brussels, here's our political editor laura kuenssberg. just to warn you, her report contains flashing images. final press conference. tick tock, tick tock. european leaders took 90 seconds today to decide that brexit talks haven't gone far enough to move on. time is pressing. they will start talks about talks. yet until the uk says it is prepared to pay, no bigger deal. i am ambitious and positive for britain's future and for these negotiations but i know we still have some way to go. both sides have approached these talks with professionalism and a constructive spirit, and we should recognise what has been achieved to date. do you deny that you've made clear to your eu counterparts that you a

evening on the bbc news channel, hello. this is bbc news. theresa may has insisted she's determined to continue as prime minister, despite moves by conservative rebels to force her to resign. mrs may told the sunday times that she was "pretty resilient" and had the full support of her ministers. but the former conservative deputy prime minister, lord heseltine, told me the current situation for the prime minister is unsustainable — and that we could see a general election much sooner than anticipated. i think there is a deep division in the conservative party that has been there for some time, but it has now erupted in public gaze and the brexit agenda is going to dominate the next couple of years, with all, in my view, the deteriorating news that it will produce. what does the prime minister do? you have only got to read today's newspapers or yesterday's to realise the present situation is unsustainable. she can either, so to speak, retract and abandon brexit, but the party will not let her do that, so there is only one alternative, to go forward and attack. that seems to me inevita

theresa may's leader's speech, seemed horribly prescient in a week which ended with calls for her to quit. by contrast, the annual meetings of party activists and corporate sponsors for the labour and liberal democrat opposition parties passed without much controversy. alex, things had seemed to have settled down for theresa may a little bit in the run—up to conference. consensus that she was going to stay until at least brexit. after this week, what has happened to those prospects? i think that consensus still holds. there was undoubtedly — i put it in the past tense — an attempt by some members of the parliamentary party to question the leadership. it really has fizzled remarkably quickly. apart from anything else, it's a demonstration of the quality of the whips‘ operation, that they... the people who control government business, who occupied a more neutral position in government, they are now enforcers for the occupant of no 10. enforce they haven't done very well. to be clear, this attempted putsch was run by a guy called grant shapps. if you were picking the opponents y

today at 5pm, theresa may calls on eu leaders to set out "ambitious pla ns" for the brexit negotiations. the pm is in brussels, where eu leaders are assessing whether enough progress has been made to begin trade talks. that speech that i set out in florence said out that ambitious vision, and i look forward to us being able to progress that in the weeks ahead. we'll have the latest from brussels, and i'll also speaking to the actor sam west about the impact of brexit on the creative industries. the other main stories on bbc news at 5pm... a big jump in recorded crime in england and wales. violent crime is up by nearly a fifth. the desperate plight of rohingya children fleeing myanmar, and facing appalling conditions when they arrive in neighbouring bangladesh. harvey weinstein is stripped of his british film institute fellowship, as tom hanks describes the scandal as a "watershed moment" for hollywood. since when has this brand of common decency and professionalism been put on hold, just because of sexual dynamics in the workplace? it is inexcusable. and, by ‘eck — we p

attackers says he had a telepathic connection with her. britain's prime minister theresa may delivers a positive report to parliament about the progress of brexit talks. we will take you to one town in the u.k. were people say they just can't wait to leave the european union. it's good to have you with us. the united nations said it is a textbook example of ethnic cleansing. hundreds of thousands of millions of rohingya muslims facing prosecution and violence in myanmar and fleeing to bangladesh. every day brings more refugees across the border. bangladesh says it needs urgent help. almost a million refugees from emr's ron kind state are now in bangladesh. more than half arrived in the past three months alone. most of the refugees we know our children. monday's donor conference in geneva brought the total amount that's raised to help them to about $340 million, but that is still short of the $430 million that agencies say is needed. our coverage begins with this report. >> thousands of people still flee me on our everyday. 600,000 head to bangladesh in recent weeks. almost all of them
