"Jeremy Corbyn has been clear from the moment of the election result that he is ready to govern," says the BBC's Leila Nathoo.

"There are suggestions that Labour is preparing to vote down the Queen's Speech," she adds.

The Queen's Speech, when the Conservatives will set out their programme for government, will be the "first test" since they lost their Commons majority.

"There was a lot of confusion last night surrounding the status of this deal," says BBC political correspondent Leila Nathoo.

First, Downing Street issued a statement that "an agreement on the principles had been reached" but later the DUP said talks would continue in the coming days.

"Then we had a clarification from Number 10 that the details were all still being finalised."

In order to secure the backing of the DUP's 10 MPs, Leila adds, "concessions" from the Conservatives will be required, though it is not yet clear what these will be.

Meanwhile, "there are plenty of rumblings in Tory ranks" over Theresa May's position but Boris Johnson is "shooting down" reports that he is preparing a leadership bid.

Welcome back to live coverage of the latest post-election developments.

Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionist Party has said that talks are to continue on a deal to support the Conservatives in government.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn is to appear on the Andrew Marr Show, after he told theMirror, external he would try to topple Theresa May in Parliament.

Downing Street and the DUP have issued separate statements overnight, emphasising that a "confidence and supply" deal between them has not yet been finalised.

The tone of both was in contrast to Saturday evening's message from No 10, which said a deal had been agreed in principle.

In a DUP statement released at midnight, the party said: "The DUP held discussions with representatives of the Conservative Party in line with Arlene Foster's commitment to explore how we might bring stability to the nation at this time of great challenge.

"The talks so far have been positive."

Within an hour, Downing Street said the details of a deal would be put forward by both parties "as and when" they were finalised.

It added: "We will welcome any such deal being agreed, as it will provide the stability and certainty the whole country requires as we embark on Brexit and beyond."

As we wind down our coverage for the night, here's a recap of a day dominated by developments in Downing Street:

• No 10 confirmed the Democratic Unionist Party has agreed to the principles of an outline agreement to support the Conservatives on a "confidence and supply basis"
• Two of Theresa May's closest aides, Fiona Hill and Nick Timothy, resigned amid mounting criticism over their roles in the election and speculation about the prime minister's future
• Former minister Gavin Barwell, who lost his seat in the election, was appointed the prime minister's new chief of staff
• Mrs May told German Chancellor Angela Merkel that she wants Brexit talks to begin as planned in the next couple of weeks
• The leader of the Scottish Conservatives, Ruth Davidson, has been meeting her newly elected MPs - and indicated she will use her increased influence at Westminster to try to persuade the PM to take a softer position in the Brexit negotiations
• Jeremy Corbyn has been largely silent - although the Labour leader uses an interview in the Sunday Mirror to give further details of his intention to vote down the Queen's Speech as part of a bid to form a government of his own
• Some of his supporters, meanwhile, have been demonstrating outside Parliament against the government and its alliance with the DUP

Downing Street has confirmed that German Chancellor Angela Merkel called Prime Minister Theresa May earlier to offer her congratulations following the general election.

A spokesperson added: "The prime minister confirmed her intention for Brexit talks to begin as planned in the next couple of weeks, and that we would be looking for a reciprocal agreement on the rights of EU citizens and British citizens abroad at an early stage."

A spokesman for Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson's office has described as "simply wrong" a report in the Mail on Sunday suggesting a Tory leadership bid was being lined up.

"The Foreign Secretary is 100% supporting the prime minister and working with her to get the best deal for Britain," he said.

Jeremy Corbyn has told the Sunday Mirror, external that he "can still be prime minister".

The Labour leader says without an outright majority Theresa May's position is vulnerable.

He said: "She's now attempting to form a government. She's then got to present a programme to Parliament.

"There's a possibility of voting the Queen's Speech down and we're going to push that all the way.

"We have got a mandate to deal with issues of poverty, justice and inequality in Britain. We want to end austerity and invest in this country and that's what we're going to do."

Sinn Fein Leader in the North Michelle O'Neill has accused the DUP of betraying the interests of the people of Northern Ireland in its agreement with the Conservative government.

"They have once again betrayed the interests of the people of the north by supporting a Tory party which has cut funding to our public services year on year to the tune of hundreds of millions of pounds.

"Experience shows us that unionists have minimal influence on any British government.

"This new arrangement between the DUP and the Tories will be transitory and will end in tears.

"But it will be the people of the North who will have to pay the price for the DUP's support for Brexit and for cuts."

Conservative peer and former climate change minister Lord Barker says he would rather "hold his nose" and make a deal with the DUP than hand the Downing Street keys to Jeremy Corbyn.

"They are certainly not our allies of choice. Personally I would much prefer to do a deal with the Lib Dems, but that's not on the cards.

"If it's just confidence and supply, which basically means that they just back us on the big votes when it counts, they're not going to get their hands on the levers of power in any meaningful way. But the alternative is to let Jeremy Corbyn in."

For three years in the 1970s, Labour had a confidence and supply deal with the Liberal Party. A Guardian journalist says PM Jim Callaghan "later regretted it".

Nigel Farage said he was certain Brexit will go ahead but that the Brexit most voters thought they were going to get was “in peril”.

Speaking on a special Saturday edition of Newsnight, the former UKIP leader added: "I suspect what we’re gonna see is a government that will struggle to get things through the commons. I think we’re probably headed towards a Norway type situation two-and-a-half years down the road.

"Norway is better than we are now but certainly not where I want to finish up".

Norway is not in the European Union but is in the European Economic Area (EEA), and technically it is as much a part of the single market as France, Germany or the UK.

Mr Farage was keen to express he was "not OK" with a Norway situation.

"We were voting to be free to engage with the rest of the world and you can’t do that if you’re stuck inside the customs union," he added.

"If we finish up at the end of this process with free movement of people and without the ability to cut our own global deals frankly we’re not that much further forward."
