Britain's political leaders have returned to the parliament, even while the Conservative party remain in talks with Northern Ireland's DUP to agree a deal that will support a minority government.
DUP leader Arlene Foster told reporters she hoped a deal could be reached soon as she left talks in Downing Street. Meanwhile Prime Minister Theresa May was back in Parliament to welcome new members.
