Press regulation talks create 'divisions'

Cross-party talks on the Leveson press reforms have broken down, the prime minister has said.

David Cameron told Nick Clegg and Ed Miliband that the gap between was "too great" to bridge, the BBC understands.

He said he would publish plans for a Royal Charter to establish a tougher press regulator on Monday and urged them to support the proposals.

But Labour and the Lib Dems say the plans will give newspapers too much discretion over press regulation.
