Open fields. Thousands turn out in hull to see the queen as she visits key innovations in the city of culture. Good evening and welcome to bbc news. Crisis talks are being held in the capital of zimbabwe, harare, after its long term leader Robert Mugabe was placed under house arrest by the countrys military on wednesday. Officials from south africa are meeting the 93 year old and also zimbabwes generals, who deny theres been a coup. Opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai says mr mugabe must resign but sources suggest the president is resistant. President mugabe has been in control of zimbabwe since it threw off white minority rule in 1980. However, the power struggle over who might succeed him, between his wife grace mugabe, and former Vice President emmerson mnangagwa, has split the Ruling Zanu Pf Party in recent months. Last week, mr mugabe came down in favour of his wife, sacking mr mnangagwa, a veteran of zimbabwes anti colonial struggle. That proved too much for military leaders, who seized control of the country on wednesday. We canjoin we can join the we canjoin the ben brown in zimbabwe. Hello, people here are waiting with baited breath to see what happens next in this crisis. And to see whether the 37 year rule or misrule as many would say of Robert Mugabe will finally end. Hes still under house arrest after the military takeover but has been having talks today with the head of the zimbabwean military and also with South African mediators and a catholic priest. Some reports say he refuses to stand down, clinging to power, perhaps waiting for elections that are scheduled next year. According to other reports he may be prepared to stand down as early as tomorrow if hes given guarantees about the safety of himself and his family. In that case there would be a Transitional Government and Morgan Tsvangirai, the leader of the opposition party, such arrival of Robert Mugabe for seven years, would step in for Prime Minister, and oversee the Restoration Committee would hope, of the economy and also fresh elections. This report on the days events from another correspondent in zimbabwe. It looks like normal life. The daily commute to work, children going to school. But look more closely. Tanks on street corners, and what you cant see behind closed doors, delicate and intense horse trading over zimba bwes future is taking place. And here is the evidence the first images of Robert Mugabe since he was placed under house arrest. It has to be said that the 93 year old still looks in charge. One of the people in the shot is an envoy from south africa, and here he is with constanino chiwenga, the general that many believe ordered the takeover. Loyalty has been a tradable commodity within zanu pf for many years, and in these uncertain times, that loyalty is shifting rapidly. Representatives from neighbouring african states have arrived in zimbabwe to facilitate a deal that could determine whether president mugabe stays or leaves. Robert mugabes power is ebbing away. There will be no change unless he resigns or agrees to a handover plan. But look more closely. Although the army set things going, zanu pf, the party mugabe created, might force him out. Emmerson mnangagwa, mugabes former deputy, believed to be behind it, has several cards he could play. He has the support of the war veterans, the Influential Group who kept mugabe in power who now appear to have turned against him. The other power groups that will be key in any negotiations are the partys youth and womens league. The military want to ensure that his departure is done by the book. Mr mugabe needs to be persuaded to resign. That is the obvious route to take. If one starts taking the impeachment route, the ill health route and trying to get the parliamentary vote, this could be a long and protracted process and the outcome could be uncertain. That would mean that the military needs to remain in control over that period, and then we have an extended period of unconstitutionality, which is obviously highly undesirable. Zimbabwe is once again at the centre of regional crisis talks. People i talked to in harare want a speedy resolution. We dont have many ways about it. Mugabe must go. Thats the only way. Mugabe must cease. He should step down. As negotiations continue, a nation waits. Mugabe may be 93 years old, but hes still a shrewd, sharp and some would say cunning negotiator, the ultimate comeback kid. For some africans Robert Mugabe has a lwa ys for some africans Robert Mugabe has always been a revolutionary hero who helped lead the fight against white rule here but some see him as a despot who has ravaged the economy. Weve been getting the blues of the United Nations secretary general, antonio guterres, about this crisis. And never like to see the military involved in politics but it is a confusing situation. I hope firstly that there is no blood, that this is done peacefully. I hope this will lead to a democratic solution and the next elections scheduled free and fairforthe the next elections scheduled free and fair for the people of the country to choose their own future. Thats antonio guterres, secretary general of the United Nations. The military who have carried out the takeover deny it is the coup. Some shots were fired but they say it wasnt a coup detat. Having been driving around today, it seems relatively calm, people seem quite relaxed going about their normal daily business, as usual, state radio and tv have run normal programmes, there is a real normality yet underneath it all, there is uncertainty, about what will happen next, no doubt zimbabwe is ata will happen next, no doubt zimbabwe is at a crossroads. Back to you in the studio. Ben brown, in zimbabwe. And well find out how this story and many others are covered in tomorrows front pages at 10 40 this evening in the papers our guests joining me tonight are giles kenningham, pr and former tory advisor and the economics commentator and author, dharshini david.

Its five months since the Grenfell Tower disaster and today the metropolitan Police Believe the final number of people known to have died in the tragedy is 71. That figure includes a baby who was stillborn in hospital after his mother escaped. Detectives began their investigation in the summer with a list of 400 missing people. The final two victims were formally identified today and have been named as victoria king and her daughter alexandra atala. Heres our correspondent elaine dunkley. It was a night of unprecedented horror. As people escaped the flames of the Grenfell Tower, they were haunted by the thoughts of those left behind. Many believed the initial death toll would be in the hundreds, but today the Police Confirmed that 71 people in total lost their lives. A little bit of closure that now everyone has been identified. Amongst them, karim mussilhys uncle, hesham rahman. We have to accept it at face value. People are going to question it, but now its about getting justice for the people that lost their lives that night. The long journey begins now, i guess. Identifying those that died has been a mammoth task, meticulously carried out by investigators. Today the final two victims of grenfell were named, 71 year old victoria king and her daughter, alexandra atala. The challenge of it has been immense. We have had our specialist teams work through 15 and a half tonnes of debris on each floor of Grenfell Tower by hand to find every single fragment that they can of all those that died. That has been extremely distressing to the families and indeed to those involved in the operation. Initially in the days following the fire, there were thousands of calls. 400 people were reported missing amongst the confusion. As the months have gone by, police have said that number would be closer to 80, and today, final confirmation that its lower. But this isnt about a number, its about the human cost and recognising every life that has been lost. Anita raphael knew people who were killed. As a child, she used to play in the tower. Its going to take a while for us to know the truth. I dont think its going to be now, or by the end of the year. I think it will take about two years for everything to come to light. Whats in the dark must come to light, thats how i see it. Today perhaps marks a significant milestone, but time cannot heal when so many feel they are so far from the truth. This community has said it will not rest until there are answers for those that survived and justice for the 71 lives lost in this tragedy. Elaine dunkley, bbc news.

Police have arrested a man after the death of a father who died when a firework went off in his arm. This afternoon and 22 year old man handed himself into police and being questioned. The government has signalled that tackling housing is likely to be a key theme of next weeks budget. Today ministers announced a technical change, reclassifying Housing Associations as private not public bodies, in the hope that it will lead to the building of more Affordable Homes. But labour said the government had no coherent plan to address the housing crisis. Our home editor mark easton reports. After building the fewest social homes since the second world war, the Prime Minister had tea with Council House tenants rita and val today, to illustrate how providing Affordable Homes is now her personal mission. The government is clear. We want more people to be able to have the security of a roof over their head, their own home, for themselves and their family. Meanwhile, the communities secretary in bristol today was stressing how united the government is on building a lot more homes. Im totally committed to building more of the right homes in the right places at the right prices. So is the Prime Minister. So is the chancellor. Its the chancellor as much as voters who was the focus of todays choreographed government activity on housing. No 10 and the Communities Department have been urging the treasury to do Something Big on housing in next weeks budget. The signs are that all that lobbying may have paid off. Today, Housing Associations in england, non profit organisations which provide most social and Affordable Homes, were officially redesignated as private bodies, which means that £63 billion of borrowing moves off the Public Sector balance sheet. And some think that gives the chancellor a bit more flexibility ahead of his budget next week. So what would Housing Associations like to see him do . Its really great to see that housing is at the top of the political agenda. Were hoping to see more help for social housing. If we build a social rented home, it takes us 30 years before we get that money back, so we need help in the form of land which is affordable for the rents we need to charge, or in terms of some kind of
