The Prime Minister urges MPs to back British airstrikes on Islamic | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
As France and Russia agree to coordinate their strikes against | :00:09. | :00:15. | |
IS, David Cameron says Britain can't afford to stand aside. | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
We have to hit these terrorists in their heartlands right now. | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
And we must not shirk our responsibility | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
But tonight the Labour Leader, Jeremy Corbyn, has told his MPs he | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
Does the Prime Minister accept that the UK bombing of Syria could risk | :00:34. | :00:49. | |
more of what President Obama called "unintended consequences?" | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
We'll be looking at the case for and against British airstrikes | :00:53. | :00:55. | |

The Prime Minister has told MPs that the UK can't afford to stand aside | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
from the fight against Islamic State extremists and he's urged them to | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
David Cameron said so-called IS was a direct threat to the UK and argued | :02:07. | :02:19. | |
that Britain's right to "self defence" meant air strikes were | :02:20. | :02:21. | |
But this evening the Labour Leader, Jeremy Corbyn, | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
wrote to his MPs saying he could not support military action, and arguing | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
wrote to his MPs saying he could not support military action, arguing | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
that David Cameron had no "coherent strategy" to defeat IS. | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
Here's our Political Editor Laura Kuenssberg. | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
And the Prime Minister believes it's now our turn. | :02:37. | :02:51. | |
Dropping bombs not just over Iraq but on so-called Islamic State | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
THE SPEAKER: Statement, the Prime Minister. | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
We can't wait for a political transition. | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
We have to hit these terrorists in their heartlands right now. | :03:05. | :03:06. | |
And we must not shirk our responsibility | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
Mr Speaker, throughout our history, the United Kingdom has stood up to | :03:09. | :03:16. | |
defend our values, and our way of life. | :03:17. | :03:17. | |
The shock of Paris has changed the terms of the debate. | :03:18. | :03:31. | |
130 people died less than 300 miles from the UK capital. | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
David Cameron believes air strikes thousands of miles | :03:38. | :03:38. | |
That bomb in Paris, that could have been London. | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
If they had their way, it would be London. | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
I can't stand here and say we are safe | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
I can't stand here either and say we'll remove the threat | :03:51. | :04:01. | |
But do I stand here with advice behind me that taking action | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
will degrade and reduce that threat over time, absolutely. | :04:06. | :04:07. | |
And I have examined my conscience and that's what it is telling me. | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
But memories of military intervention, what went | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
In the light of the record of Western military intervention | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
in recent years, including Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya, | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
does the Prime Minister accept that UK bombing in Syria could risk more | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
of what President Obama called "unintended consequences" | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
and that a lasting defeat of Isil can only be secured by Syrians | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
British boots won't be on the ground. | :04:34. | :04:50. | |
So, who are the reliable 70,000 forces there | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
the Government says could help and can they really be trusted? | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
I'd ask him to look again at his figure of 70,000 Free Syrian Army. | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
We have been told very directly, through recent contact that there | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
are very few moderates remaining on either side of this civil war. | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
Today the Prime Minister wants us to launch a bombing campaign without | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
effective ground support in place, or a fully-costed reconstruction | :05:16. | :05:17. | |
Enemies to the right of us, enemies to the left of it. | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
But a crucial Conservative opponent has changed his mind in favour. | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
It is now my personal view that, on balance, | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
the country would be best-served by this House supporting his judgment | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
that the United Kingdom should play a full role in the coalition. | :05:40. | :05:46. | |
The Government's small majority means they need a chunk of Labour | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
So, after the debate, Labour's top team gathered to try to | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
But Jeremy Corbyn was set against, | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
most of his Shadow Cabinet in favour. | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
So, after a difficult couple of hours, at 3.00pm, they agreed to | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
disagree and talk again next week but at 6.00pm, Jeremy Corbyn stunned | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
some of his colleagues, publishing a letter, making claim his opposition. | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
That puts him in complete opposition to his Shadow Foreign Secretary | :06:16. | :06:23. | |
I think all of us agree on the threat to the United Kingdom and | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
The first duty of the Government, but also of the Opposition, | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
Labour faces a deep and dangerous split. | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
And unless ministers can be totally confident they'll get | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
the authority to send British planes to Syria, a vote won't happen. | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
But tonight there is a political fight on not one, but two fronts. | :06:48. | :07:00. | |
So big questions tonight about what impact British military action would | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
have on the ground in Syria and whether it would make Britain | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
Here's our world editor, John Simpson. | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
This report contains flash photography. Islamic State, | :07:12. | :07:18. | |
so-called, is the most extreme and merciless enemy the outside world | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
has faced in a long time. And it has an almost global reach. So, is | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
Britain right to attack it in Syria? The case in favour, as put forward | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
by the Government, has a lot to do with showing the Americans and the | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
French that we are fully committed to the fight. Britain's contribution | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
won't in fact be all that great. But the RAF's Tornados are highly | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
effective. Their Brimstone missiles can hit moving targets at short | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
notice, something even the Americans can't always do. And since we're | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
deeply involved in Iraq anyway, the argument goes that it's illogical | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
not to stage attacks across in Syria, given that IS operates on | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
both sides of the border. If we are going to be involved in finding a | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
solution in Syria, unless we are actually there, taking part in these | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
things, we are not going to be able to influence it and therefore our | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
credibility is diminished. The case against bombing in Syria is more | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
varied. One big argument is that IS is now highly sophisticated. As | :08:26. | :08:33. | |
these pictures of the elaborate tunnels it's dug under the | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
newly-recaptured Iraqi town of Sinjar show. IS often embeds its | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
fighters in highly-populated areas. So the dangers of British pilots | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
killing civilians is a real one. That would recruit more Jihadis for | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
IS, and could mean attacks within Britain itself Many things could go | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
wrong. There are so many steps that have to follow in sequence. And as | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
we have seen with the Downing of the Russian war plane, that is the kind | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
of thing that can occur and throw everything off plan. The fight | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
against IS in Syria is already highly complex. You can see that | :09:12. | :09:18. | |
when you look at the map of where the various factions are operating. | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
A nationwide patchwork of conflict. IS, of course, is fighting across | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
the border in Iraq as well. And, the problem isn't just on the ground. | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
The skies overhead are criss-crossed by the military aircraft of a | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
variety of countries. What will happen in the long term to the | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
anti-IS campaign? The there have been real problems, of course. On | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
Tuesday, Turkey shot down a Russian aircraft and President Putin has now | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
imposed sanctions on the Turks. But President Hollande of France was in | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
Moscow today, trying to persuade President Putin to cooperate with | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
the anti--IS coalition, which includes Turkey. Perhaps it worked. | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
TRANSLATION: We have agreed to improve the flow of information in | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
the fight against terrorism and improve the cooperation between our | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
military specialists, so as to avoid duplication and incidents. But there | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
are still big question marks over the anti-IS operation. What, for | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
instance, is supposed to happen to Syria's President Assad? Two years | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
ago, David Cameron wanted to bomb him. Now Mr Cameron wants to bomb Mr | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
Assad's enemies instead. Do we still want regime change in Syria? Or have | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
we forgotten about all that now? Belgium has lowered | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
its security threat level. It had been on the highest state | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
of alert after warnings about the Today a friend of one | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
of the main suspects still being hunted by police, has been telling | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
the BBC how Salah Abdeslam phoned people in Brussels the night | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
following the attacks and asked them The friend has been speaking to | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
our Europe correspondent, He is the Paris attacker still on | :11:03. | :11:19. | |
the run, Salah Abdeslam. In Brussles we met a friend of his. He agreed to | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
speak anonymously because of fear of reprisals. | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
He said that on the night of the attack, Salah Abdeslam telephoned | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
one of his friends and asked for help. | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
I saw Mohammed and Hamza at the corner near my place, | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
I said hello. I had a cigarette with them. | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
Hamza left and came back and said, "Poor Salah he is in trouble, his | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
car broke down in Paris, he needs someone to go and pick him up." | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
It was a favour for a friend, like you help me, | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
And while Mohammed and Hamza went to par toys pick up Salah, he stayed in | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
Brussels. He had to work the next day. In the Belgium police raids | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
that followed, Mohammed and Hamza were among those arrested. They have | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
now been charged with terrorism-related offences. | :12:09. | :12:16. | |
This is Salah's brothers. One of the Paris suicide bombers. Our source | :12:17. | :12:32. | |
was a close friend for years. He said he watched online video, shared | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
wildly among Facebook friends w graphic images of casualties in | :12:38. | :12:38. | |
Syria. He watched those videos regularly, | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
it is true. Was it those videos that | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
pushed him to do what he did? I don't think so | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
but maybe it played a role but maybe The Abdeslam brothers lived here in | :12:55. | :13:06. | |
Brussels. The question remains - how were these young Belgium men | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
radicalised. The clue could be 100 yards away around the corner, is a | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
shop owned by the man French police described as the ringleader Paris | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
attacks, who died in the police raid in the days afterwards. | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
Now Salah is the most wanted man in Europe. Do you have any idea where | :13:24. | :13:25. | |
he could be? I think he just has two options - | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
either he turns himself in or he He could go to Syria, thinking | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
he had nothing to lose any more. So the West will intensify its war | :13:33. | :13:48. | |
on Syria but will that prompt more anger among those watching the | :13:49. | :13:49. | |
videos? The head of athletics' world | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
governing body, Lord Coe, has announced he's | :13:53. | :13:54. | |
stepping down from his role as a paid ambassador with the sportswear | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
company Nike after 38 years. He'd been facing questions about | :13:58. | :13:59. | |
a potential conflict of interest in connection with the awarding of the | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
2021 Athletics' World Championships Our Sports Editor Dan Roan | :14:03. | :14:04. | |
reports from Monaco. This report contains flash | :14:05. | :14:14. | |
photography. From an athlete who won Olympic | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
medals for his country, to an administrator who helped bring | :14:19. | :14:20. | |
the Games to London, Lord Coe has But his short time as the most | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
powerful man in his sport has Ever since he was elected IAAF | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
president, Coe has defied calls to end a lucrative ambassadorial role | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
with sportswear giant Nike. But today, amid mounting pressure, | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
came an embarrassing climb-down. It is clear that perception | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
and reality have become horribly I have stepped down | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
from my ambassadorial role with The current noise level | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
around this ambassadorial role is not good for the IAAF | :14:50. | :14:58. | |
and it is not good for Nike. This week, the BBC obtained | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
an e-mail that showed Coe had discussed taking athletics' 2021 | :15:03. | :15:04. | |
World Championships here, the city of Eugene in the United | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
States, the birthplace of Nike, with Coe denied lobbying for the bid | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
and maintains his long partnership with Nike does not constitute | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
a conflict of interest. But today, he reluctantly | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
stepped down from the role. You've been bounced into this | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
decision, haven't you, by the media? You will remember, | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
because you interviewed me about this subject shortly after I became | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
president of the International Athletics Federation, that of course | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
a review process had started. It actually started the day after I | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
became president, and that review process would of course involve | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
my own outside interests. Systemic doping | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
in Russia has seen it banned from international competition, | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
while the IAAF has been rocked by a corruption scandal implicating | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
Lamine Diack, the man Coe replaced. The new president will hope today's | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
U-turn will allow him to focus I think it's very pleasing, | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
I think it's a very positive step Maybe a little bit late, | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
but he's done something that I think will bring a lot of trust | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
and support him in his role. Coe says he had the IAAF's backing | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
to stay with Nike but that he had Some will ask tonight, however, | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
why it took him quite Calls for Lord Coe to quit Nike | :16:22. | :16:39. | |
mirror the American multinational's slogan, just do it. Tonight, of | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
course, he did exactly that, and he will hope he can now be allowed to | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
move on and tackle some of track and field's various crises. The problem | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
he faces is it took time to get here. As an athlete on track, Coe | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
was known of course for his speed, his turn of pace. The delay in | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
reaching today's decision here in Monaco however may have caused yet | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
more damage both to him and his sport. | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
Independent experts have been picking through the details of | :17:08. | :17:09. | |
Yesterday George Osborne announced he wouldn't go through with | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
But the Institute for Fiscal Studies says families could still lose out | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
They say that some 2.5 million new claimants would be worse off under | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
the new system of universal credit than under existing tax credits. | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
But they say nearly two million would be better off. | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
Our economics correspondent Andy Verity looks at the figures. | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
If George is the builder, can he fix it? | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
The high-visibility headline was a U-turn on tax credits, | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
but when you lay out the detail that U-turn somehow takes | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
Britain needs to move to that lower welfare, higher wage economy. | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
It's the right thing for our country. | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
We can help families in the transition to that lower | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
welfare higher wage economy and use the improvement | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
In fact, the Chancellor is still planning to | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
take billions from low-paid working families who need their income | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
topped up, but they're the claimants of tomorrow, not today. | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
Among today's claimants is Stuart Boardman, whose family did | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
It means a massive difference to myself and my family. | :18:19. | :18:25. | |
We're still cautious because we know there's going to be | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
further cuts further down the line, but we're just happy with | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
In this building behind me, the Institute for Fiscal Studies | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
has been explaining what will happen to the incomes of low-paid working | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
families under benefit changes already coming through. | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
1.9 million working families will be better off by ?1400 a year each | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
on average than they would under the current system, but 2.6 million | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
working families will be worse off to the tune of ?1600 a year each. | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
Cuts to tax credits have gone from next year. | :19:02. | :19:03. | |
No one who's currently on a tax credit will see any fall | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
in their cash benefits next year, or indeed into the future. | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
But the Chancellor is still making the same long-term savings | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
and the way he's doing that is because he's making the universal | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
credit system, which is what's going to replace tax credits, | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
The tax credit cuts would have reduced the amount you could earn | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
before your tax credit money was clawed back, but that will still | :19:26. | :19:28. | |
happen when they're replaced by a new benefit, universal credit. | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
Take a single parent with one child, working part-time | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
They'd get ?2800 a year less claiming in 2020 than they get now. | :19:37. | :19:43. | |
For a couple with three children on the living wage, | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
it's ?3050 less, but a single worker on the living wage would be over | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
Universal credit is being rolled out to all job centres next year, | :19:53. | :20:01. | |
replacing six benefits from tax credits to jobseeker's allowance. | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
But its introduction has been dogged by delays. | :20:06. | :20:07. | |
His chances of getting the budget into surplus depend on it. | :20:08. | :20:16. | |
Net migration to the UK has hit a new all-time high. | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
The difference between the number of people coming to live in Britain | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
and those leaving the country was 336,000 in | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
That's 82,000 higher than the previous year. | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
But the government wants the total to be much lower - | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
Why can't the month get the figures going in the direction they want to? | :20:35. | :20:48. | |
You could say the government is a victim of its own success. The big | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
increases in people coming to work, 73% up in three years. Why? Because | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
our economy is doing relatively well. There are jobs. The UK is | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
attractive. Another big driver is foreign students. The numbers coming | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
are pretty flat going to UK universities, colleges and schools, | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
despite the global expansion of that sector. Some people worry we may be | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
missing out on valuable foreign income. Refugees, we should talk | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
about, much debate as Europe deals with the exodus from Syria. More | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
people are seeking a file in the UK but it remains a very small part, | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
just 5%, of total immigration. The real pull factor is the economy. | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
It's not just our relative economic success which is encouraging | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
migrants. Migrants are actually bolstering our economic success. | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
About two thirds of the new jobs, those fuelled by growth, are filled | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
by foreigners, and the Chancellor didn't need to cut tax credits and | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
the police yesterday because an official forecast says its net | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
migration, growing net migration, that's given as the boost that means | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
he doesn't have to do that. Mark, thank you. | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
The Government has outlined plans to regulate Muslim religious | :21:57. | :21:58. | |
after-school classes - known as madrasas - in England. | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
David Cameron has expressed concern that some children are | :22:02. | :22:03. | |
Muslim organisations have said protecting child welfare is | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
a priority, but they've expressed concern about the government | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
interfering in the independence of religious institutions. | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
Anywhere providing regular and intensive education to children | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
will also have to register and could be inspected by Ofsted. | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
Barclays has been fined ?72 million for failing to carry out proper | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
The regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
said the bank didn't follow standard procedures designed to prevent money | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
laundering, because it didn't want to upset its rich customers. | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
There's no suggestion, however, that any crime was actually committed. | :22:41. | :22:49. | |
2015 is likely to be the warmest year on record - | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
As world leaders gather in Paris for a climate change summit next week - | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
our science editor David Shukman has been looking at the effect food | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
waste in the UK could surprisingly be having on rising temperatures. | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
On a frozen morning, steam rises from a mountain of waste. | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
A scene most of us never think about, but at this site near | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
Manchester and 200 others, rubbish dumped every day starts rotting. | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
When you get this close, the smell does become pretty intense. | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
That's because the waste here, including old bits of food, | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
What's happening is that bacteria are working away on that waste | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
and giving off a host of different gases - including greenhouse gases - | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
and this is happening on a massive scale right across the country. | :23:37. | :23:44. | |
Households throw away staggering amounts of food. | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
For example, the equivalent of 86 million | :23:48. | :23:49. | |
So we asked researchers to monitor what happens - under lights that | :23:50. | :23:56. | |
Our time-lapse camera followed the grim process of decomposition. | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
Bacteria creating gases that force the chicken to swell up over | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
No surprise - flies were soon attracted. | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
So we've injected the sample from the decomposed chicken | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
and you can see on the mass spectrometer this large | :24:19. | :24:20. | |
Some food is collected by local councils, | :24:21. | :24:27. | |
but most of it still isn't, and that means more greenhouse gases | :24:28. | :24:30. | |
Not only is it costing us a lot of money as householders - | :24:31. | :24:38. | |
?60 per month for the average family with children - but the 4.2 million | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
tonnes of food that could have been eaten, a lot of it ends up going to | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
landfill where it basically just rots and gives | :24:46. | :24:47. | |
There are ways that food waste can be used. | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
Here, rubbish is divided automatically. | :24:54. | :24:56. | |
Some of it diverted into equipment that goes on to produce electricity. | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
Not on a big scale so far, but more and more waste is being | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
Any food waste, whether it's leftover food or food | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
that has gone off, it's important people put that in the right bin. | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
We can take that material, use it in technology like this | :25:15. | :25:17. | |
So by recycling their food waste, people are actually helping to keep | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
Scientists prepare a drone to fly over landfill and | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
No one knows exactly how big the problem is, but these flights | :25:29. | :25:35. | |
Many landfill sites are due to close in the coming years, | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
but even when they do there will be a legacy of gases seeping out | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
Talks will continue tomorrow between the government and the British | :25:45. | :26:01. | |
Medical Association in an effort to stop the planned industrial action | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
by junior doctors in England. The first of three walk-outs over pay | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
and working hours is due next Tuesday. The government has agreed | :26:09. | :26:11. | |
to meet junior doctors' representatives at the conciliation | :26:12. | :26:12. | |
service Acas. BBC Three will be moved online | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
from February - as part of a series of cost cutting measures being | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
introduced across the corporation. The television channel will remain | :26:20. | :26:21. | |
in operation until March to direct viewers to | :26:22. | :26:23. | |
its new home on the internet. The BBC Trust approved the move, | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
on the condition that all of the channel's long form | :26:27. | :26:29. | |
programmes also get shown at some It's the film that nobody would | :26:30. | :26:31. | |
fund because the topic was not But The Danish Girl - staring Eddie | :26:32. | :26:39. | |
Redmayne as a transgender pioneer - has made it to the big screen | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
and will open in the UK next year. Our arts editor Will Gompertz has | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
been to meet the British Oscar winner to talk | :26:49. | :26:50. | |
about his latest transformation. She propositioned me. Is that true? | :26:51. | :27:07. | |
When I said hello to make... A coy looking every -- Eddie Redmayne | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
adverse happily married Einar Wegener, a successful Danish artist, | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
who gives up his career with the support of his wife to live the | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
woman called Lili. My dear, you look exquisite. It was a love story | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
unlike anything I'd read. It was about love being not bound by | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
gender, not bound by physical bodies, it's about the soles. No, | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
never. I met women from the trans-community | :27:36. | :27:51. | |
and heard their experience and it became absolutely clear that the key | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
to playing Lili for me was about the emotional journey. I mean, my | :27:58. | :28:08. | |
husband, do get in? I can't. Has this whole process in any way caused | :28:09. | :28:13. | |
you to question your own gender? It absolutely makes me look at the | :28:14. | :28:17. | |
notion of my own gender and the thing that I have learned I think is | :28:18. | :28:21. | |
that this notion of gender being binary, about being two things, | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
seems in this day and age, that feels incredibly antiquated and what | :28:27. | :28:30. | |
I have learned I think is that gender is a spectrum and that where | :28:31. | :28:34. | |
one falls upon that spectrum is entirely unique to who you are. | :28:35. | :28:39. | |
Where do you fall on that spectrum? I think... I'm not going to tell you | :28:40. | :28:45. | |
that. I'll keep that to myself. The film is a melodramatic retelling of | :28:46. | :28:51. | |
Lili Elbe's true story, which culminates in her decision to | :28:52. | :28:55. | |
undergo experimental gender reassignment surgery in 1930. The | :28:56. | :28:59. | |
script, or at least the story, has been knocking around for quite | :29:00. | :29:02. | |
awhile. Why does it take so long to get made? When I fell in love with | :29:03. | :29:08. | |
it was considered a hard film to finance because a difficult subject. | :29:09. | :29:14. | |
Why? I can only imagine the prejudice against trans stories | :29:15. | :29:16. | |
filters into financial decisions and people say at the prejudice against | :29:17. | :29:19. | |
trans stories filters into financial decisions and people say it's | :29:20. | :29:24. | |
subject seven years ago. There's no doubt the film's timing is good. The | :29:25. | :29:28. | |
issue certainly has currency. But will critics and filmgoers be as | :29:29. | :29:35. | |
convinced as this young man? You are old-fashioned. By The Danish Girl. | :29:36. | :29:40. | |
