The House of Commons is voting on whether to renew Britain's | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
Those in favour say the four Vanguard submarines, | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
which carry the Trident nuclear missiles, must be replaced | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
In her first parliamentary statement as Prime Minister, | :00:17. | :00:25. | |
Theresa May warned MPs not to abandon what she called | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
We cannot abandon our ultimate safeguard out of misplaced idealism. | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
That would be a reckless gamble that would enfeeble our allies | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
Outside parliament, a rally against Trident, | :00:35. | :00:44. | |
Backing the view taken by the Labour leader and others. | :00:45. | :00:52. | |
I do not believe the threat of mass murder is a legitimate | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
way to go about dealing with international relations. | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
But the Labour leader's view was openly challenged | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
by some of his own MPs. We'll have the latest | :01:00. | :01:02. | |

title. The House of Commons | :02:04. | :02:17. | |
is voting tonight on whether to renew Britain's | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
nuclear weapons system. The Prime Minister, warned | :02:21. | :02:29. | |
MPs that not replacing the submarines, which carry | :02:30. | :02:31. | |
the Trident missiles, But the debate exposed deep | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
divisions on the Labour benches. Jeremy Corbyn will | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
vote against renewal, which means he'll be | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
voting against his own His stance was challenged by | :02:39. | :02:39. | |
a number of his Labour colleagues. But first our political editor, | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
Laura Kuenssberg, reports Take the submarine to | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
action stations missile Even in rehearsal, it's the most | :02:54. | :03:02. | |
tense moment. Pressing the nuclear button on board | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
a nuclear submarine. Even keeping Britain's ability to do | :03:06. | :03:15. | |
so is a huge source of tension. Theresa May making what will become | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
a familiar journey from Number 10 Chose a vote on Trident as her first | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
Commons test as Prime Minister. And a moment of huge | :03:23. | :03:37. | |
awkwardness or Labour. The Tories broadly united, | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
laboured deeply split. Mr Speaker, we have | :03:40. | :03:40. | |
waited long enough. It is time to get on with building | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
the next generation It is time to take this essential | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
decision to deter the most extreme threats to our society | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
and preserve our way of life Our nuclear weapons are driving | :03:50. | :03:51. | |
proliferation, not the opposite. Sadly she, and some members | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
of the Labour Party, seemed to be the first to defend | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
the country's enemies and the last Is she personally prepared | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
to authorise a nuclear strike that could kill | :04:04. | :04:19. | |
100,000 innocent men, And I have to say to the honourable | :04:20. | :04:20. | |
gentleman, the whole point of a deterrent is that our enemies | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
need to know we would be The real awkwardness | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
was for the Labour leader, whose objections are not shared | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
by all of his MPs. We, on these benches, | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
despite our differences on some issues, have always argued | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
for the aim of a nuclear free world. We might differ on how | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
it's going to be achieved but we are united | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
in our commitment to that end. I do not believe the threat | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
of mass murder is a legitimate way to go about dealing | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
with international relations. Mr Corbyn does not have | :04:54. | :04:55. | |
the authority to do anything else. For the official opposition | :04:56. | :05:05. | |
to have a free vote national importance is a terrible | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
indictment of how far this once But what Labour's current front | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
bench is doing is not principled. It shows contempt for the public, | :05:14. | :05:22. | |
for party members, and often Mr Corbyn's defiance of his own | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
party's policy is decades long and it is one of the things | :05:29. | :05:37. | |
supporters love about him. Not much illustrates | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
Labour's dilemma as much Jeremy Corbyn has lots of backing | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
from his supporters and among In truth, rather than debating | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
Trident today, most of his backbenchers have been concentrating | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
on the best way of pushing Behind closed doors in the Commons | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
today, Angela Eagle and Owen Smith were trying to persuade MPs | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
they are the one who can win. I think the most terrible thing | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
for Labour would be, as the Tories are now | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
on their second woman leader, that we can't even field a woman | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
in a leadership candidate. I think Angela was superb | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
in there and I think she will get the nominations but I don't | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
want to see a woman crowded out of this on some kind of false | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
analogy we should only We need a straight fight | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
between Jeremy Corbyn The candidate that gets the wide | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
support of the Parliamentary Labour Party and wide support | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
in the membership. Having anything other than that | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
would not just be a distraction, Despite protests inside Labour, | :06:42. | :06:43. | |
protests of all sorts The Government will all | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
but inevitably win its vote But on nuclear weapons, | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
controversy is never far, The debate around Trident, | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
its true cost and the options for renewing the system, | :07:02. | :07:14. | |
has been going on for years and is one of the most | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
divisive political issues Our defence correspondent, | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
Jonathan Beale, takes a closer look at how the system works | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
and at its estimated costs. For nearly half a century, | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
every day of every year, Britain's had a nuclear-armed | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
submarine on patrol, hidden somewhere under the sea | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
and yet it remains a highly Successive governments | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
say it's the nation's ultimate security guarantee, | :07:40. | :07:49. | |
a deterrent to any Critics view it as an expensive | :07:50. | :07:51. | |
relic of the Cold War era. The four Vanguard-class submarines | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
that carry Britain's Trident nuclear-armed missiles are coming | :07:58. | :07:59. | |
to the end of their life. Successive Governments have argued | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
they need to be replaced with four new submarines, | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
to ensure that one submarine Each submarine carries eight Trident | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
missiles with a range There are up to 40 warheads | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
on a submarine, each eight times more powerful than the atomic bomb | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
dropped on Hiroshima in 1945. But does Britain really | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
still need these weapons? It would be almost a dereliction | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
of duty of any Government to get rid of our nuclear weapons | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
in what is such a dangerous I believe that we will make our | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
position in the world, as well known, by our very strong | :08:40. | :08:47. | |
conventional contribution, which after all has been | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
deployed countless time Today's vote will allow work | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
on building four new submarines to begin in earnest, | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
but it won't be cheap. The MoD estimates the cost | :09:01. | :09:02. | |
will be ?31 billion. But it's also set aside another | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
?10 billion in case that bill rises. While the annual running costs | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
of keeping the Trident system is about 6% of the total defence | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
budget, just over ?2 billion a year. Opponents say there are cheaper | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
alternatives, but as yet, there's no consensus | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
as to what that should be. For a deterrent to be credible, | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
it has to be continuously available. The submarine-based system, | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
where one submarine is constantly deployed at sea, is very difficult | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
for an adversary to find. If you do it with land-based | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
missiles or aircraft, those systems are - | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
and this has been proven historically - are vulnerable, | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
they can be attacked pre-emptively. Thousands of jobs will be secured | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
here at Barrow-in-Furness, But this decision is also | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
about securing Britain's place in the world as a nuclear power | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
and key Nato ally. We are still waiting for the result | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
of the vote in the House of Commons. We will get the latest from our | :10:02. | :10:18. | |
political editor in a few moments. But first let's speak | :10:19. | :10:26. | |
to our Scotland editor, Sarah Smith, What do you characterises the | :10:27. | :10:36. | |
debate? Trident is a live issue here in Scotland. It provokes passionate | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
opposition from some but does provide thousands of jobs. Polls | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
show that Scottish voters are evenly split on whether they want to see | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
Trident renewed. The politics of it though are much more sharply | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
defined. Out of a total of 59 Scottish MPs, only one of them, the | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
sole Tory MP in Scotland, is intending to vote for renewal. The | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
SNP says that shows there is a democratic deficit. They will claim | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
that once again whether Mr is imposing something on Scotland its | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
MPs have overwhelmingly worked against. Coming off the back of the | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
EU referendum, where Scotland clearly voted to stay in, that | :11:19. | :11:20. | |
allows the SNP to say Scotland and the rest of the UK are moving in | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
different directions politically, at a time when they say they are also | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
considering a second referendum on Scottish independence. | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
Let's go back to Westminster and Laura is with us. What was your | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
sense of how this debate went today and what kind of light did it shed? | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
MPs are voting right now. It would be astonishing to come back with a | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
result that the news Trident. On the subject that is so serious and so | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
grave, there was a lot of passion in the debate on display in the green | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
benches from every single party. Two things stood out. First of all how | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
Theresa May did not flinch or hesitate. There were no doubts on | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
display when she was asked the most serious questionable, would you | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
press the nuclear button if the situation dictated that was an | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
option? Without any hesitation, she said yes they would. There were | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
howls on some of the green benches when she did so. The second thing | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
was the agony on display amongst Labour MPs. In a way the whole | :12:29. | :12:35. | |
debate around Trident has crystallised the doubts, the | :12:36. | :12:37. | |
divisions, the internal wrangling is among the Labour Party, not just | :12:38. | :12:45. | |
about Jeremy Corbyn but the union movement and many members. Labour is | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
in the process of a leadership contest. They are pretty much | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
completely distracted by that. There are all sorts of wranglings among | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
Labour MPs on that tonight. Possibly tomorrow, possibly not the end of | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
Wednesday. Either Owen Smith or Angela Eagle, who both want to take | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
on Jeremy Corbyn, will drop out of the race. Whoever gets less support | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
from MPs will withdraw from that point. Watching today, Theresa May, | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
despite difficulties in the Tory Party, is in a position where it | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
looks like the opposition is a long way away from being in a shape to | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
take her on. Labour is headed for what might feel like a very long, | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
hot summer for their contest if I let who will challenge Jeremy | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
Corbyn. The question, who will end up the victor? Laura with the latest | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
on that debate at Westminster. The Turkish government has detained | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
thousands of people, suspected of involvement | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
in the failed military coup at the weekend, | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
and it's also suspended nearly 8,000 Turkey's Justice Minister called it | :13:47. | :13:48. | |

crisis that made an attempted coup possible. | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
TRANSLATION: Unfortunately the president's political style has | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
caused big wounds in the country. The wounds are to democracy, | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
freedom, the peace of society, to our integrity and our institutions. | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
His political style is corrosive and polarising. We're seeing the | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
consequences. Without everything he's done to society and democracy, | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
I don't think the coup makers would have dared to act. They wanted to | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
take advantage of the damage he's done. The party the Turkish people | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
voted into Parliament all condemn the coup. This is an unhappy, | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
divided country. Turkey's always mattered because of where it is. I'm | :17:14. | :17:18. | |

rock of stability in a very unstable part of the world, but it isn't and | :17:28. | :17:35. | |
that is a problem for everyone. Jermey Bowen, BBC News, Istanbul. | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
An independent investigation has found that the Russian government | :17:43. | :17:44. | |
organised and directed a sophisticated doping programme | :17:45. | :17:46. | |
The report - commissioned by the World Anti-Doping Agency - | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
says Russia's sports ministry oversaw the manipulation of hundreds | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
of urine samples, and it says all Russian athletes should now be | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
banned from the Rio Olympics, which start in early August. | :17:58. | :17:59. | |
Moscow has questioned the findings of the report, | :18:00. | :18:01. | |
as our sports editor Dan Roan reports. | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
It was the most expensive Olympics in history and portrayed | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
as a triumph for Russia and its president, the hosts | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
topping the medal table at their own winter Games. | :18:14. | :18:20. | |
But now we know, Sochi 2014 was sabotaged. | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
A damning report today confirming allegations of a doping regime | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
stretching right back from 2011 and which, | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
with the help of the country's Secret Service, | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
The Russian minister of sport directed, controlled and oversaw | :18:32. | :18:39. | |
the manipulation of athletes' analytical results or sample | :18:40. | :18:42. | |
swapping with the active participation and assistance | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
The report vindicates the shocking allegations of the man | :18:46. | :18:52. | |
at the centre of this scandal, whistle-blower, Grigory Rodchenkov. | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
Seen here in a Russian documentary and now in hiding | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
in the United States, the former head of Moscow's | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
Anti-Doping Laboratory claimed in May that he'd enabled dozens | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
In the kind of plot you'd expect in a crime novel, | :19:06. | :19:12. | |
the Sochi lab was the centre of a barely believable | :19:13. | :19:14. | |
scheme that made positive samples simply disappear. | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
A Secret Service agent was even accredited as a plumber to help | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
Rodchenkov break into supposedly tamper-proof drugs test bottles, | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
meddle with their contents and switch them for clean samples | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
Today's report is a devastating blow to the integrity of the Olympics | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
and makes clear that Russian cheating didn't stop at Sochi, | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
that it extended to the period leading up to the London | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
It affected World Championships in both athletics and swimming, | :19:44. | :19:50. | |
Paralympic sport, in fact, virtually every sport was tainted. | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
This evening, the World Anti-Doping Agency said it would recommend | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
to the International Doping Committee that the entire Russian | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
team was now banned from the Rio Games. | :20:00. | :20:02. | |
Our position's been clear for months. | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
In the event that the report showed the state involvement | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
with corrupting the Olympic Games and running a doping programme, | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
that they have no business being around the Olympics. | :20:15. | :20:23. | |
Today the IOC described the revelations as a shocking | :20:24. | :20:25. | |
and unprecedented attack on the integrity of sports | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
It says it would not hesitate to take the toughest sanctions | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
available against any individual or organisation implicated. | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
In May, Russia's sports minister, Vitaly Mutko, told me his country | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
Today he was directly implicated in the scandal. | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
President Vladimir Putin has ordered the suspension of a number | :20:48. | :20:49. | |
of officials but said that today's report was based on the testimony | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
of just one man, warning that the Olympic movement could now | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
But with the Games less than three weeks away, | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
and the country's track and field athletes already banned for doping, | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
Russia's participation in Rio now hangs by a thread. | :21:04. | :21:05. | |
There are reports coming in from Germany tonight that more than ten | :21:06. | :21:15. | |
people have been injured, several critically, after a man with an axe | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
attacked people on a train. A large police operation is said to be under | :21:22. | :21:27. | |
way in southern Germany. One local report says the attacker has been | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
shot dead by police. There are no further details, but if there are | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
significant developments there, I'll bring them to you. | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
In France, the prime minister, Manuel Valls, has been | :21:39. | :21:40. | |
heckled and jeered, as he attended a commemoration | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
in Nice for the victims of last week's attack, | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
when a lorry was driven through a crowd, | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
Mr Valls was there to observe a minute's silence, | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
During the day, French prosecutors revealed more details about the man | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
behind the attack, and his possible motivation, | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
as our correspondent, Lucy Williamson, reports. | :22:03. | :22:04. | |
He came to show respect, not to get it. | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
France's prime minister stood on Nice's promenade | :22:07. | :22:16. | |
to mark a minute's silence, a leader excluded from | :22:17. | :22:27. | |
The promenade, for once, fell silent, remembering the 84 | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
This crowd knew their heroes, the emergency services, | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
When his turn came, Mr Valls bore the jeers. | :22:39. | :22:50. | |
Laying his wreath to the chants of "resign". | :22:51. | :22:52. | |
There were tears in private too, in homes and hospitals and mosques. | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
Medhi and Bilal lost their sister on Friday night. | :22:56. | :22:58. | |
Despite the rhetoric of right-wing parties, her death, they say, | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
My sister was not killed by a Muslim. | :23:03. | :23:17. | |
With 13 victims still unidentified, investigators say their killer's | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
computer revealed a fascination with violence and radical Islam, | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
TRANSLATION: The investigation does not show that the attacker had | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
pledged allegiance to Isis or that he was in touch with members | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
of the organisation, but the analysis of his computer | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
shows a clear interest in the jihadist movement. | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
France is waiting for an explanation of why | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
In the meantime, a memorial to him is growing on the promenade, | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
built not of flowers or candles, but rubbish, the least offensive | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
After last year's attacks, people packed this square | :23:58. | :24:07. | |
France's national motto, liberty, equality, brotherhood, | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
has been inscribed here for more than a century. | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
Now in the shadow of presidential elections, people are asking - | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
And when they gathered on the promenade today, | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
What once looked like solidarity here, is starting to feel very thin. | :24:29. | :24:39. | |
Tonight, at the end of three days of national mourning, France's most | :24:40. | :24:47. | |
famous symbol has been lit up in the colours of the French flag. But | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
these days of mourning have seen great anger directed towards the | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
government, a third of French people say they don't trust President | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
Hollande and his team to keep the country safe, to prevent more | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
attacks and opposition leaders have been sharply critical, saying the | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
government should have done more. Thanks very much. The latest on that | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
story today. One of the UK's most important tech | :25:13. | :25:14. | |
companies, ARM Holdings, has agreed to a takeover | :25:15. | :25:16. | |
by a Japanese firm. Softbank is to pay ?24 | :25:17. | :25:19. | |
billion for the company, which is based in Cambridge, | :25:20. | :25:21. | |
and designs microchips used in smart phones - | :25:22. | :25:24. | |
including those made The company employs | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
more than 4,000 people. Softbank has said it will create | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
at least 1,500 new jobs in the UK over the next five years | :25:33. | :25:35. | |
and will keep the company's The Prime Minister has welcomed | :25:36. | :25:38. | |
the deal, but as our business editor Simon Jack reports, | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
there are others who insist it's His report contains | :25:44. | :25:45. | |
some flash photography. It might be the most important UK | :25:46. | :25:52. | |
company you've never heard of. Last year, 15 billion | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
microchips designed by ARM found their way into mobiles, | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
laptops and other devices Based in Cambridge, it is the crown | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
jewel of the UK technology industry. This deal is hugely | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
significant for three reasons. The first is the sheer size of it, | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
it's the biggest investment The second is the stature of ARM | :26:13. | :26:14. | |
Holdings, behind this campus-like leafy exterior | :26:15. | :26:22. | |
is a global powerhouse. Talks on this merger didn't start | :26:23. | :26:24. | |
until two weeks ago, So, is this a ringing | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
endorsement of a post-Brexit Britain open for business, | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
or has the fall in the pound made A Japanese entrepeneur | :26:36. | :26:37. | |
who is betting on a future where there are chips in just | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
about everything we use. I am very excited to | :26:46. | :26:47. | |
make this announcement. This is a company that I have | :26:48. | :26:50. | |
admired for the last ten years. I want to ask you why suddenly | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
this deal has been done, and whether Brexit and | :26:58. | :27:00. | |
the devaluation of sterling had I would have made this decision | :27:01. | :27:03. | |
at this timing regardless That confidence is music | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
to a Chancellor's ears. The fact that a Japanese | :27:10. | :27:17. | |
company, just three weeks after the referendum decision | :27:18. | :27:20. | |
is prepared to make this kind of commitment to the UK, | :27:21. | :27:23. | |
and commit to grow that business here in the UK, | :27:24. | :27:26. | |
is a resounding endorsement of the resilience of the British | :27:27. | :27:29. | |
economy and the attractiveness of Britain as a place | :27:30. | :27:32. | |
for international Others question the wisdom | :27:33. | :27:35. | |
of letting our best companies fall It goes completely contrary | :27:36. | :27:41. | |
to what Theresa May has been saying she wants the industrial strategy | :27:42. | :27:46. | |
and takeover regime to be. It may be a perfectly | :27:47. | :27:49. | |
good Japanese company, but this is our last big, | :27:50. | :27:51. | |
British high-tech company going under foreign ownership | :27:52. | :27:54. | |
without a proper test. SoftBank has promised to double | :27:55. | :27:57. | |
the number of UK-based employees and keep the headquarters | :27:58. | :28:01. | |
in Cambridge. founder, there was little | :28:02. | :28:05. | |
cause for celebration. ARM is the proudest achievement | :28:06. | :28:12. | |
of my life, and this is a very sad day for me and a sad day | :28:13. | :28:15. | |
for high-technology in Britain, because ARM has been such | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
a phenomenal global success. Cambridge's old-fashioned charm | :28:21. | :28:27. | |
belies its high-tech prowess, but it only has one ARM, | :28:28. | :28:30. | |
and while it's not going anywhere it'll no longer be in control | :28:31. | :28:35. | |
of its own destiny. Let's return briefly to that vote in | :28:36. | :28:48. | |
Parliament tonight on renewing Britain's nuclear weapons system, | :28:49. | :28:53. | |
because a few minutes ago, MPs voted and the vote was announced and this | :28:54. | :29:00. | |
is what happened: The ayes to the right 472. The noes to the left, | :29:01. | :29:06. | |
117. The ayes have it, the ayes have it. | :29:07. | :29:12. | |
So that means that MPs supported the renewal of Trident by 472 to 117, a | :29:13. | :29:18. | |
majority of 355. That means the vote paved the way for the next | :29:19. | :29:23. | |
generation of nuclear submarines to be built replacing the current | :29:24. | :29:24. | |
fleet. A man identified as the killer | :29:25. | :29:30. | |
of three police officers, n the US state of Louisiana,had | :29:31. | :29:33. | |
posted videos online cricitising police treatment | :29:34. | :29:35. | |
of African-Americans Gavin Long - a former US marine | :29:36. | :29:37. | |
and veteran of the Iraq war - was killed by police during | :29:38. | :29:42. | |
the attack on Sunday morning. Our North America correspondent | :29:43. | :29:45. | |
Nick Bryant reports from the Louisiana state capital | :29:46. | :29:47. | |
of Baton Rouge. Chilling new photographs of the lone | :29:48. | :29:57. | |
gunman the police say deliberately targeted and assassinated their | :29:58. | :30:06. | |
officers. GUNFIRE Shots fired, officers down. This is the volley of | :30:07. | :30:11. | |
gunfire as police were lured into ambush, after responding to a call | :30:12. | :30:19. | |
that a man was brandishing a rifle. Shots fired, officers down. This | :30:20. | :30:24. | |
surveillance video shows how an officer tried to take cover and this | :30:25. | :30:28. | |
was the weapon he was up against. The lone gunman has been identified | :30:29. | :30:34. | |
as Gavin Eugene Long, a 29-year-old former marine, who served a | :30:35. | :30:39. | |
six-month Tour of Duty in Iraq. He also had an online allious, Cosmo | :30:40. | :30:44. | |
and posted on the internet, complaining about the treatment of | :30:45. | :30:47. | |
African Americans at the hands of police. I'm in Dallas right now. In | :30:48. | :30:51. | |
this one, he claimed to be in Dallas, days after the killing of | :30:52. | :30:55. | |
five officers in the city and called for black men to fight back. These | :30:56. | :31:02. | |
were his three victims, Matthew Gerald, Brad Garifla and Montrone | :31:03. | :31:08. | |
Jackson. He posted an emotional message on Facebook just days | :31:09. | :31:11. | |
before, describing how hard it was to be a black police officer in | :31:12. | :31:16. | |
Baton Rouge. "I swear to God, I love this city, but I wonder if this city | :31:17. | :31:21. | |
loves me. I get nasty, hateful looks and out of uniform sm, consider me a | :31:22. | :31:24. | |
threat." Race relations in America haven't been this tense for 20 | :31:25. | :31:29. | |
years, since the Los Angeles riots of the early 1990s. Many people are | :31:30. | :31:33. | |
asking - when will this Spiral of violence end? At the sight of the | :31:34. | :31:42. | |
killings a police chaplain said prayers for the dead and for this | :31:43. | :31:47. | |
troubled nation. Louisiana has a long and ugly history of racial | :31:48. | :31:52. | |
division. Here we saw gestures of reconciliation We are all family. It | :31:53. | :31:56. | |
doesn't matter if you're black, white, red, pink or gold. If you | :31:57. | :32:00. | |
live in Louisiana, are you family. In this violent summer, the flowers | :32:01. | :32:05. | |
and flags of mourning have become an all too familiar sight. What's often | :32:06. | :32:09. | |
been absent are shows of mutual understanding. | :32:10. | :32:14. | |
Amid the violence of recent weeks in America, | :32:15. | :32:16. | |
President Obama has been severely criticised by Donald Trump, | :32:17. | :32:18. | |
the Republican contender for the US presidency. | :32:19. | :32:22. | |
Mr Trump is due to arrive at the Republican Convention in Ohio | :32:23. | :32:26. | |
to be formally adopted as the party's nominee. | :32:27. | :32:29. | |
Our North America editor Jon Sopel is there. | :32:30. | :32:34. | |
After all of these violent incidents, how are they affecting | :32:35. | :32:45. | |
this presidential debate? Well, it is very polarised debate. The title | :32:46. | :32:50. | |
of today's subject is "make America safe again". Donald Trump is | :32:51. | :32:52. | |
desperate that the Republicans should be seen as the party of law | :32:53. | :32:58. | |
and order. As you say, strong criticism from Mr Trump talking | :32:59. | :33:00. | |
about how Barack Obama hasn't got a clue what he's doing, that America | :33:01. | :33:04. | |
has become a giant crime scene, the country has never been more divided. | :33:05. | :33:07. | |
He's also asked - how many more people have to die due to lack of | :33:08. | :33:12. | |
leadership? Barack Obama's call for people to dial down the rhetoric is | :33:13. | :33:17. | |
falling on deaf ears here. You've had Hillary Clinton entering the | :33:18. | :33:22. | |
debate on Baton Rouge as well. Of course she unequivocally condemned | :33:23. | :33:26. | |
the killing of the police, but she also said, "We cannot rest until we | :33:27. | :33:31. | |
root out implicit bias and stop the killing of African Americans by the | :33:32. | :33:35. | |
police." I don't think you'd hear Donald Trump using those sort of | :33:36. | :33:39. | |
words. But this is the unconventional convention and who | :33:40. | :33:41. | |
knows what is going to unfold over the next few days. The headline | :33:42. | :33:46. | |
speakers are all members of the Trump family, not the Republican | :33:47. | :33:50. | |
establishment. Jon, thanks very much. | :33:51. | :33:56. | |
Henry VIII's flagship, the Mary Rose, is to be revealed | :33:57. | :33:59. | |
in its full glory tomorrow, after three decades | :34:00. | :34:02. | |
The vessel sank in the Solent almost 500 years ago, and since being | :34:03. | :34:08. | |
raised from the seabed in 1982, it's been covered with scaffolding | :34:09. | :34:10. | |
Our correspondent Duncan Kennedy was given exclusive access | :34:11. | :34:15. | |
to the Mary Rose and reports now from Portsmouth. | :34:16. | :34:21. | |
It takes just a few seconds to fully reveal five centuries of history. | :34:22. | :34:26. | |
Now, the pipes, the spray and the barriers have gone. | :34:27. | :34:31. | |
This is the Mary Rose like you've never seen her before - | :34:32. | :34:34. | |
There is the wreck of the Mary Rose, she has come to the surface. | :34:35. | :34:41. | |
It was 34 years ago her ancient timbers first appeared | :34:42. | :34:45. | |
above the Solent, but she's always been obscured, | :34:46. | :34:47. | |
first by a giant cradle, then by water and chemical | :34:48. | :34:50. | |
sprays, and finally by glass and black pipes. | :34:51. | :34:53. | |
Now, 471 years on, you can see her as clearly as Henry VIII | :34:54. | :34:58. | |
You really feel like you're treading on board the ship, | :34:59. | :35:08. | |
And you can really get a sense of what it felt like to be one | :35:09. | :35:14. | |
of those 500 sailors and soldiers squashed onto this ship, | :35:15. | :35:17. | |
and what life really must have been like. | :35:18. | :35:19. | |
Without the glass and pipework, you could almost be on deck | :35:20. | :35:21. | |
And the craftsmanship of 16th century shipbuilders | :35:22. | :35:27. | |
In fact the detail is now so great that you can make out individual | :35:28. | :35:33. | |
planks of the hull of the Mary Rose, something like 40 acres | :35:34. | :35:36. | |
of New Forest oak were used to build the ship. | :35:37. | :35:38. | |
And look at this, a 16th century wooden rivet. | :35:39. | :35:41. | |
We were also given access behind the ship. | :35:42. | :35:47. | |
This side has never been seen on television before. | :35:48. | :35:51. | |
The hull here is almost pristine, thanks to the white | :35:52. | :35:54. | |
Is that it for the Mary Rose in terms of preservation? | :35:55. | :36:00. | |
The main bulk of the conservation is now done. | :36:01. | :36:03. | |
There are compounds within the wood that we know could be problematic. | :36:04. | :36:06. | |
We will always need to maintain the conditions around the ship, | :36:07. | :36:09. | |
and we will need to look at how our conservation | :36:10. | :36:12. | |
Until today, we have had to rely on paintings to see her clearly, | :36:13. | :36:18. | |
now in all her splintered, salvaged, spartan state, | :36:19. | :36:21. | |
Duncan Kennedy, BBC News, in Portsmouth. | :36:22. | :36:31. | |
Newsnight's about to begin over on BBC Two in a few moments. | :36:32. | :36:33. | |
Labour MPs are poised to choose who among them should take up the | :36:34. | :36:41. | |
leadership fight against Jeremy Corbyn. Angela Eagle or Owen Smith? | :36:42. | :36:47. | |
We ask which one will be or should be and can either beat Mr Corbyn any | :36:48. | :36:49. | |
way? Join me now on BBC Two. Here on BBC One, we now join | :36:50. | :36:51. | |
