As i say, i worked for them for ten years and ive got loads of friends who, it is their livelihood, it is tragic. Emotional, very emotional. The cabin crew were all crying. A bit sombre, to be honest. For a company that big to be going that long, to be going down, it is devastating. Thomas cooks planes are now stuck on the ground, impounded as part of the liquidation most not available to help with the rescue after frantic negotiations to win extra backing failed early this morning. It is deeply distressing to me that it has not been possible to save one of the most loved brands in travel. People were still turning up at uk airports, only to find their holidays cancelled. If they bought a package, they will get a refund, but the money might not be enough or arrive in time to book something else.

I had a bit of a sixth sense at two oclock this morning, got up and checked the website and that is when it hit the fan, basically. The shops are closed today. That is more than 500 of them, so more gaps on our high streets and the people who work in shops like this make up a big share of the 9,000 or sojobs and livelihoods which are affected by the collapse. 0vernight, thats it, yeah. Livelihoods just gone like that. Everyones got kids, mortgages and stuff to pay. Its notjust me, everyone is in the same situation. Its very sad, you know, its a very awful situation personally, for work as well. Ive been here since i was 19, so. Yeah, its very sad. In nottingham, they came in to be told the grim news. Then the door was locked for the last time. 0ne family in paphos felt abandoned by the company. Thomas cook has not paid the hotel yet and they have warned us they have not been paid.

This is new york last night. And this is menorca today. Passengers who boughtjust a flight and not a package will be included for free, but not if their return is after the 6th of october. We have got about 40 aircraft that weve brought in from around the world and we will, over the next two weeks, run about 1,000 flights. This covers 18 countries and 55 airports.

The aim to get the holiday makers back, then count the cost. Simon gompertz, bbc news. As we saw, lots of thomas cook passengers stranded at airports unable to fly off on holiday and unable to fly off on holiday and unable to fly off on holiday and unable to return in many cases. Our correspondent dave guest whos at Manchester Airport. That flight came in from any kind came in from new york and the pastures that came of that later told us that they had checked and got that far too getting on the site, then the company went bust and then they were told they were not going anywhere from the time being. They merge from the passengers was just one of relief. This is what some of them had to say to us. We kind of knew that we will get home eventually, but itsjust worrying because we all have work tomorrow and then we dont know what is going to happen. You know, how were going to get home. I dont feel like im here, i feel like im on my own world, but its good to be back. Feelvery like im on my own world, but its good to be back. Feel very sad because we have them all the time, its a good company and cheap as well. Apart from of course the confusion, lots of jobs apart from of course the confusion, lots ofjobs in this part of the world depended on thomas cook as well. The airline had its main offices here at Manchester Airport and they had transferred a lot of marketing jobs to manchester in the recent past, Something Like 3000 people depended on thomas cook in the north west of england for their livelihoods. They are now obviously wondering what is going to happen to them. The mayor of manchester has launched a task force to try to do something to help them. In the meantime, that of a penetration operation, the biggest in peacetime, continues. 150,000 people have to be brought home. That repatriation operation. People are getting back, but they are going to have to accept that there is going to be some disruption because the government has said it does not replacing thomas cook with an identical airline, they are doing what they can with emergencyjets in the air to get people back as quickly and safely as possible. There is the big question about those people who relied on this company for this job that make those people who relied on this company for their jobs. So more than 150,000 british holiday makers are facing an anxious wait to find out how and when theyll get home. 0ur europe correspondent gavin lee is in palma, majorca, one of the companys most popular destinations. Holiday over, now the problems start for passengers arriving at palma airport, unsure of how theyll get home. The yellow jacketed Civil Aviation authority and Foreign Office staff man the aisles to offer reassurance, but cant offer an easy solution of how to get back to the uk. Well, this is 0peration matterhorn in action on the ground here at palma airport. Now, what were being told is that around 1500 uk passengers trying to get back today, they will be returning today, were told not necessary to the airport that they flew out from. Instead of going to glasgow, weve been told, so far as far as we know, were going to manchester at 7. 40pm this evening, so weve got quite a long day ahead of us. Were going to birmingham, which is a bit of a kick, but were going to get home, so its not the end of the world. Wheres home . Glasgow. We understand now that were flying to manchester at 7. 40pm tonight . And then theres a bus to newcastle. Theyve told us were going to birmingham and then a coach trip for six hours from birmingham up to glasgow. I mean, its really not suitable at all for me, with my disabilities and that, sitting for like 12 hours. Part of the departures terminal is now a waiting room for those left here by the collapse. The staff at thomas cook are working too, maintaining professionalism despite losing theirjobs. Theres another concern, not just for the thousands of thomas cook travellers here and still in the middle of their holidays, but also for those reliant on the money from thomas cooks once reliable income. Well, this is the main thomas cook run hotel in palma and weve been told by staff that everythings ok, but the management wont speak to us and, if you look, theyve got security here for the first time. Theyre quite nervous. This is one of a number of hotels that, we understand, are waiting still to be paid in arrears from thomas cook and, in the meantime, theyre still having to look after the customers, too. Reception dont know whats happening. They just said, yes, the hotel is open, at the moment. We just feel like at any moment like were vulnerable and we could just be asked to leave. Back at palma airport, only one scheduled flight has left for the uk so far. The rest are due to leave tonight. Its calm here contemplation for the loss of a once loved airline for later. For now, the priority is on getting home. Gavin lee, bbc news, mallorca. A dedicated website has been set up for thomas cook customers after the firm collapsed.

The labour Leaderjeremy Corbyn is facing a rebellion revolt over his brexit strategy, as members prepare to choose between two competing stances. They will decide whether labour should explicitly back remain in any future referendum or adopt mr corbyns stance of staying neutral until a later date. In the next few minutes sir keir starmer, shadow brexit secretary, is due to speak and then the voting will take place. We will be there for sir Keir Starmers speech because it will be a very important contribution to the pa rtys a very important contribution to the partys debate on this and he will set out his ground, im sure. Before that, lets join set out his ground, im sure. Before that, letsjoin our set out his ground, im sure. Before that, lets join our chief Political Correspondent. Vicki Young Political correspondent. If youre going to the general election with the labour party sing we re election with the labour party sing were not going to tell you how to campaign, oryou were not going to tell you how to campaign, or you expressed at that point. He is saying that he would personally campaign to remain, but how much will he stay onside with jeremy corbyn, just minutes ahead of those crucial votes. There has been a lot of policy announcement here today, as well as the bios, debates over brexit. Lets discuss some of those. Im joined by dan carterfrom the shadow cabinet. 0n the policies, some people are looking at these and are saying they are pretty radical policies. Dan cardin. Are saying they are pretty radical policies. Dan cardinlj are saying they are pretty radical policies. Dan cardin. I hope that people will see the range of policies are setting a new direction and the next general election will bea and the next general election will be a really big choice for the country. Which direction that we go. Its a race at to the bottom or adobe invest in our Public Services and billy rebuild britain . Im probably most excited about the policies around the National Health service and the Labour Government will deliver free prescriptions. I think the public will see that any positive move towards the right direction and now england will do it as well as scotland and wales. You know what your critics say, they say that you never tell us how youre going to play for it and it is going to be in higher taxes, is it not . The labour party is the only party that cited its spending in the last manifesto. We purchased the grey bit with all the figures. The conservatives, the only numbers in their manifesto where the page numbers. So actually, that is not right. John mcdonnell has been shadow chancellor for four years now and he has taken some big decisions, decisions that will transform our country and economy but we always set out how the spending will take place the question is whether they are workable, a four day working week. We are told it is not a cap, but about trying to encourage people to do it. They will love the sound of that, but also wonder how you can make it work. A shorter working week with the same money . There is a consensus iiow with the same money . There is a consensus now coming with the same money . There is a consensus now coming about the economy being broken and the Financial Times saying that we need to be set to capitalism. This is not just a left platform. This is getting support from different sections in the economy and society. And it is radical, but i think that we cannot afford to not provide free ca re we cannot afford to not provide free care for over 65. We cannot afford to continue to work people into the ground in the wages and poverty pay. We need a change in this country and thatis we need a change in this country and that is why the labour party is putting forward these radical ideas which we will implement as a Labour Government. The biggest show the day at the moment does remain brexit. And until that assault, the other announcements are getting overshadowed, are they not, by internal rows of all that . Some in the shadow cabinet are saying that it is not credible to go into a general election without saying how labour would campaign and a referendum . If we start by looking at the extremes on offer at the moment, you have got the liberal democrats anti democratic policy to revoke. You have the tory government proposing to crash out at the end of next month. And actually, i think there is room there for the labour party to be the middle ground, the sensible centre. Were going to have to wind up to go to sir keir starmer has go to tells more about brexit policy. Our members, our trade unions and the whole Labour Movement for supporting me and my tea m movement for supporting me and my team here and decisions that we had to make. Thank you for that. Can i thank my team who have worked hard again this year in the house of lords and house of commons, winning those votes on behalf of labour. Thank you members my team. Applause. Conference, what a year it has been. And last years conference motion, do you remember that . You give us a road map. Us does to vote down theresa mays deal and we did. You asked us to put down theresas deal. You asked us to do everything we could to prevent no deal and we everything we could to prevent no dealand we did. Applause. And you asked us to keep a public vote on the table. And we did. Applause. But conference, we now face a very different set of challenges to last year. Boris johnson and at the most right wing government in recent history, a Prime Minister with no moral compass. No principles, no regard for the truth. John major is taking him to court and david cameron, of all people, sales him dash and him self serving. I do not believe a word johnson says. And neither should you. Applause. What did he tell us . He told us that brexit would be good for the nhs. It will not. He told us that shutting down parliament had nothing to do with brexit. It has everything to do with brexit. Applause. He told us he could unite the country. Nothing could be further from the truth. The truth is this, isnt it, that he has never put anyones interest above his own . And he never will. Applause. With Dominic Cummings pulling his strings, he threatens us with a no deal brexit. He threatens us with a no deal brexit. He threatens us with a no deal brexit. Well no deal may not be a problem for boris johnson, Jacob Rees Mogg and dominic raab, but it would be a disaster for working people across this country. Applause. Conference, this is not a game. That were playing. In no deal brexit will see manufacturing torn apart. After the revival, the Service Sector desolated, chaos and delay at her birders. Vital food and medicines will not get through. Eu citizens will be left in limbo and the good friday agreement could be imperilled. The open border in Northern Ireland is not a technical question about how you get people or goods across a line on the road. It has any manifestation of peace. Applause. It is the manifestation of peace. We will never accept Boris Johnsons reckless approach. Never. And that is why we were right, over the summer, to work on a cross party basis with jeremy the summer, to work on a cross party basis withjeremy corbyn bringing together the Opposition Party leaders to take over Parliament Three weeks ago and pass a law to prevent a no deal brexit on the 31st of october. Applause. We stick theresa mays government is on the government, but at least she occasionally when you vote. So far with this premise, it is johnson now six corbyn. Johnson zebo does it not tell you everything that you need to know about borisjohnson that we had to pass a law to prevent him crashing is out of the ego without a deal . And that his first instinct is to try and break the law. His first instinct is to break that law. No one is above the law. Applause. And Prime Minister, if you think were going to sit idly by whilst you break the law, you have got another think coming. Mark my words. Applause. Whenever we return to parliament and the sooner the better we will be ready. Applause. Despite all that, applause. Despite allthat, lets applause. Despite all that, lets be honest. Preventing no deal is vital, but it is not an end in itself. It is an insurance policy. It will not break the deadlock and the country desperately wants to move on. And we have to find a way forward. Were under a duty to find a way forward. And there is no only one way, whether in this government or the next, put it to the people. Applause. Conference, too much has happened in the last three years for this now to be decided without the consent of the public. We need to ask them a basic and vital question are you prepare
