Labour Leadership Debate

Victoria Derbyshire hosts live coverage of the Labour leadership debate between Jeremy Corbyn and Owen Smith. Plus reaction and coverage of the day's news with Peter Allen.

Who should be the leader of the Labour Party? We simulcast a live debate in Nottingham where Jeremy Corbyn and Owen Smith answer audience questions. Elsewhere we find out more about the new golden couple of British sport. Laura Trott and Jason Kenny - who will marry in September - won historic cycling golds as Britain made Rio 2016 their most successful overseas Olympics with 50 medals. Meanwhile a new report from the National Union of Students has found that almost half of the first set of students who paid the full Β£9 thousand pounds of tuition fees for their university education have had to move back in with their parents to save money.
