:00:00. > :00:00.Tonight at Ten: After months of talks, a draft agreement

:00:07. > :00:10.on changing Britain's relationship with the EU.

:00:11. > :00:13.A letter outlining the deal is sent to all member states,

:00:14. > :00:16.as David Cameron insists that real progress has been made.

:00:17. > :00:19.If I could get these terms for British membership,

:00:20. > :00:22.I sure would opt in to be a member of the European

:00:23. > :00:31.But on the key areas of immigration and parliamentary sovereignty,

:00:32. > :00:34.the Prime minister's Mritics say he's not delivered.

:00:35. > :00:46.All the big talk two years ago, of fundamental treat

:00:47. > :00:49.change, of Britain getting back powers, of a whole new relationship,

:00:50. > :00:53.We'll be taking a closer look at the proposals,

:00:54. > :00:55.which pave the way for a possible referendum in the summer.

:00:56. > :01:00.I absolutely love the people of Iowa.

:01:01. > :01:03.Iowa didn't love Trump - he was beaten in the first electoral

:01:04. > :01:06.step in the race for the Republican nomination.

:01:07. > :01:08.1.5 million Syrian refugees in camps in Jordan.

:01:09. > :01:14.The king says a summit this week must deliver help.

:01:15. > :01:17.Sooner or later, I think the dam is going to burst.

:01:18. > :01:19.This week is going to be very important for Jordanians

:01:20. > :01:23.to see is there going to be hope, not only for Syrian refugees

:01:24. > :01:30.And invading the Yorkshire countryside, the first major British

:01:31. > :01:36.exhibition by the New York pop artist Brian Donnelly.

:01:37. > :01:39.Later on BBC London - Cracking down on gangs -

:01:40. > :01:42.a new plan to encourage young people to turn their back crime.

:01:43. > :01:44.And Labour's Mayoral candidate says he'll solve London's

:01:45. > :02:11.After months of talks, a draft agreement has been reached

:02:12. > :02:14.on changing the terms of the UK's membership of the European Union.

:02:15. > :02:17.David Cameron insisted there'd been real progress,

:02:18. > :02:20.but he acknowledged that more work was needed before the deal

:02:21. > :02:23.could be put to voters in a referendum.

:02:24. > :02:26.The two main areas under the spotlight today were:

:02:27. > :02:29.Sovereignty - whether national parliaments could use a so-called

:02:30. > :02:32."red card" to block unwanted European laws.

:02:33. > :02:36.And immigration - with a focus on Britain's ability to use

:02:37. > :02:44.an emergency brake on benefits for EU migrants.

:02:45. > :02:50.Our political editor looks at the draft agreement and the reaction.

:02:51. > :02:54.Time to see, have the months of private negotiations achieved

:02:55. > :02:57.very much, even Cabinet ministers weren't

:02:58. > :03:08.REPORTER: Is this a good enough deal to make you campaign to stay in?

:03:09. > :03:13.In Paris the clock ticked down to the document.

:03:14. > :03:15.Then in Brussels, it was finally time for

:03:16. > :03:24.Choosing a suitably EU friendly engineering business in Wiltshire,

:03:25. > :03:27.the Prime Minister gave his verdict, the draft terms he's brokered

:03:28. > :03:31.to change our relationship are big and for the better.

:03:32. > :03:33.Sometimes people say to me, if you weren't

:03:34. > :03:37.in the European Union, would you opt to

:03:38. > :03:43.And today I can give a very clear answer: If I could get these terms

:03:44. > :03:45.for British membership, I sure would opt in to

:03:46. > :03:48.be a member of the European Union, because these are good terms.

:03:49. > :03:51.So what's actually in the draft deal?

:03:52. > :03:54.The Prime Minister wanted more muscle for our Parliament.

:03:55. > :03:57.And there will be some extra powers to prevent

:03:58. > :04:03.There'll be protection for the pound, a guarantee British

:04:04. > :04:06.firms won't lose out just because we're not in the eurozone.

:04:07. > :04:09.And Britain would be formally excluded

:04:10. > :04:11.from ever closer union, the EU tradition of countries

:04:12. > :04:16.On David Cameron's big promises of squeezing

:04:17. > :04:18.immigration, he hasn't got everything he wanted.

:04:19. > :04:23.The so-called emergency brake, the Prime Minister

:04:24. > :04:25.wanted to stop EU workers getting benefits like tax credits for four

:04:26. > :04:33.Similarly, he wanted a complete ban on EU migrants sending

:04:34. > :04:38.They'll still receive the payments, but

:04:39. > :04:41.they'll be lower, according to the cost of living

:04:42. > :04:45.But how long will these new limits last?

:04:46. > :04:50.Look, in the draft, no numbers, but X, Y and Z.

:04:51. > :04:53.I was told I would never get a four-year

:04:54. > :04:57.proposal and yet that is what is in the document.

:04:58. > :05:00.We don't have to pay welfare in full for four years.

:05:01. > :05:06.Not paying in full, not the same as banning all together.

:05:07. > :05:10.REPORTER: Do you admit surely that you have had to water down some

:05:11. > :05:14.of your demands and can you say to the public,

:05:15. > :05:17.hand on heart, that these proposals will actually cut the number of EU

:05:18. > :05:20.migrants coming to live in this country?

:05:21. > :05:22.I can say hand on heart, I've delivered the commitments that

:05:23. > :05:28.I think the whole country knows that if you, for instance,

:05:29. > :05:31.pay people ?5,000, ?10,000 addition to

:05:32. > :05:33.their wages, that is a draw to Britain.

:05:34. > :05:36.That's one of the reasons why we've seen such high levels

:05:37. > :05:46.It's not quite what he promised, though.

:05:47. > :05:53.He needs to give me more to convince me that it's going to go

:05:54. > :05:56.Saying it's one thing and achieving it is another.

:05:57. > :05:58.Certainly if this country stays in the

:05:59. > :06:00.European Union, we've got to have clearly defined rules

:06:01. > :06:04.If he delivers on what he said there, it could be beneficial

:06:05. > :06:09.You've got to look at what happens at the end of February and see

:06:10. > :06:16.It's not an empty deal. There are changes, if enacted, that would

:06:17. > :06:21.limit the payment of benefits to some EU workers in this countriment

:06:22. > :06:25.and there are some protections for British businesses trading around

:06:26. > :06:28.the continent. Crucially, it does not allow David Cameron to keep all

:06:29. > :06:32.the promises he made at the election. It tweaks our relationship

:06:33. > :06:37.with the rest of the EU, rather than tearing it up and starting again.

:06:38. > :06:45.For those who want to leave the EU, today was time to set the terms of

:06:46. > :06:49.the campaign. In the coming weeks, every line will be poured over. Even

:06:50. > :06:53.on the emergency brake stuff... Every weakness in the deal pounced

:06:54. > :06:57.on. And many minds are already made up. The demands from the Government

:06:58. > :07:02.were very limited to begin with. Now they've been watered down by the EU

:07:03. > :07:05.on almost every front. We've spent months and months now with the Prime

:07:06. > :07:08.Minister going round Europe asking other European leaders if we, in

:07:09. > :07:11.Britain, can change our own benefit laws. I think it's clear now that

:07:12. > :07:14.the British public need to have control of their own laws, control

:07:15. > :07:20.of their economy, control of their own borders. If you look at the

:07:21. > :07:23.remoshiation package -- renegotiation package today, it was

:07:24. > :07:28.hardly worth the wait. It's pathetic really. All the big talk two years

:07:29. > :07:31.ago, fundamental treaty change, Britain getting back powers, a whole

:07:32. > :07:34.new relationship, nothing fundamental has changed at all.

:07:35. > :07:38.Labour was furious. The Prime Minister presented his deal to the

:07:39. > :07:45.public and the press first. Rather than to Parliament. He's gone to a

:07:46. > :07:48.selected audience this morning to give commentary on the negotiations

:07:49. > :07:53.but cannot come here to report to this House. But will in the end

:07:54. > :07:56.inevitably back him. If the Prime Minister in the country elected in

:07:57. > :08:00.May says this is a good deal, I recommend it to you, and I think we

:08:01. > :08:05.should stay in the European Union, that sways a lot of people, Labour

:08:06. > :08:08.as well as Conservative. It seems one of David Cameron's potential

:08:09. > :08:11.opponents in this debate is on the verge of coming on board. The Home

:08:12. > :08:18.Secretary said tonight there is the basis of a deal. From Boris Johnson,

:08:19. > :08:22.though, who has flirted with exit, tonight an unusual silence. But

:08:23. > :08:28.beware... The stakes are really high. The EU president who put the

:08:29. > :08:32.deal together warned it's not signed and sealed. Even getting this far

:08:33. > :08:37.was hard enough. One of today's main proposals

:08:38. > :08:40.is the so-called emergency brake - restricting access to in-work

:08:41. > :08:43.benefits for migrant workers Mr Cameron said this

:08:44. > :08:48.would take the pressure off But would this brake have the effect

:08:49. > :08:54.of reducing the number of EU Our home editor, Mark Easton,

:08:55. > :08:59.has been investigating. This is where the British Government

:09:00. > :09:02.wants the emergency brake put on. Record numbers of EU citizens

:09:03. > :09:07.are coming to the UK to work, 160,000 in the last year, a quarter

:09:08. > :09:15.of them from Romania and Bulgaria. Having promised to reduce net

:09:16. > :09:20.migration by more than two-thirds, Ministers hope an emergency brake

:09:21. > :09:24.on in-work benefits will mean many European workers

:09:25. > :09:27.don't board the bus. Are in-work benefits like tax

:09:28. > :09:34.credits and housing benefits a key factor in deciding

:09:35. > :09:38.whether to come to the UK? These Eastern Europeans,

:09:39. > :09:42.working on a farm in Kent, say they came for higher

:09:43. > :09:44.wages and better living Here is more better than in Romania

:09:45. > :09:55.with money, with everything. It cannot replace this feeling,

:09:56. > :10:01.but I don't have any future. The Prime Minister insists Britain's

:10:02. > :10:15.in-work benefits are a big financial incentive to lower-paid,

:10:16. > :10:19.lower-skilled EU workers. Certainly benefits can add several

:10:20. > :10:21.thousand pounds to an immigrant's income, but the Government's

:10:22. > :10:24.own economic advisers and other experts doubt an emergency brake

:10:25. > :10:27.will change immigration levels much. We have very little data on exactly

:10:28. > :10:30.how many people would be affected But all of the statistics suggest

:10:31. > :10:34.that a minority of EU citizens who come to the UK are actually

:10:35. > :10:36.receiving in-work benefits, so it's unlikely that we'd see

:10:37. > :10:40.a dramatic reduction in the numbers of people coming, even if there

:10:41. > :10:43.are a few people at the margins Let's imagine a Romanian migrant

:10:44. > :10:48.coming to Britain to work, Now, he would earn ?14,000

:10:49. > :10:54.a year doing that. So he wouldn't actually be

:10:55. > :10:57.eligible for tax credits, although he might get housing

:10:58. > :11:00.benefit to help with his rent. But look where the UK minimum

:11:01. > :11:04.wage sits within Europe, only Ireland and Luxembourg are more

:11:05. > :11:08.generous and you have to go a long way down the list before

:11:09. > :11:12.you find Romania. Back home, the minimum wage

:11:13. > :11:16.for our potential migrant will be a little over ?2,000, less

:11:17. > :11:19.than a sixth of what he would be Some reckon it's Government help

:11:20. > :11:26.for Britain's low paid that's the real pull factor for EU migrants

:11:27. > :11:30.and it's likely replacing the minimum wage, with a more

:11:31. > :11:34.generous living wage from April, will only make Britain even more

:11:35. > :11:36.attractive to European workers. Mr Cameron will now need to persuade

:11:37. > :11:41.the leaders of the other 27 EU member states to sign up

:11:42. > :11:44.to the package of measures at a summit in Brussels

:11:45. > :11:47.later this month. Our Europe editor, Katya Adler,

:11:48. > :11:50.has been considering the reaction Britain's relationship

:11:51. > :12:02.with the EU has been turbulent, Never a marriage of conviction,

:12:03. > :12:11.more assumed convenience. Sometimes fruitful,

:12:12. > :12:14.often fraught and now, viewed from Brussels,

:12:15. > :12:19.EU-UK relations have changed fundamentally again with what's seen

:12:20. > :12:23.as Britain's audacious demand for reform that Europe

:12:24. > :12:32.has taken seriously. This is the first time in EU history

:12:33. > :12:36.that one country stood up in front of the rest, threatened to leave

:12:37. > :12:41.if the EU didn't dance to its reformist tune

:12:42. > :12:43.and then got what it asked The problem right now with the UK's

:12:44. > :12:50.new EU deal is that the stage is set, but the piece

:12:51. > :12:52.of music isn't yet finished. And, to complicate things further,

:12:53. > :12:55.with the European Union's 28-piece orchestra every single musician

:12:56. > :12:59.is allowed to have their say. The danger is you end up

:13:00. > :13:02.with a disordered cacophony rather than a harmonious composition that

:13:03. > :13:05.will stand the test of time. And that is what David Cameron

:13:06. > :13:10.needs, a credibly composed, legally watertight deal

:13:11. > :13:14.for his audience at home, that all his EU

:13:15. > :13:23.partners will agree to. But already today there

:13:24. > :13:26.were rumbles of dissent. Not here in consett with Belgian's

:13:27. > :13:30.national orchestra, but from central and Eastern Europe on the plan

:13:31. > :13:35.to cut EU migrant benefits. According to all statistics

:13:36. > :13:38.the Poles are very successful So I do not see why they shouldn't

:13:39. > :13:44.be paid the same benefits The French have wrinkled their nose

:13:45. > :13:56.at the idea that the UK and other non-Eurozone nations can

:13:57. > :14:01.stall Eurozone decisions. The current stage of the Eurozone

:14:02. > :14:05.is not sustainable. So it needs to be fixed

:14:06. > :14:08.and you cannot allow someone that is outside the family to forbid

:14:09. > :14:22.you from making it work better. All-important Germany meanwhile

:14:23. > :14:25.is soothing ruffled feathers around the EU, determined that everything

:14:26. > :14:31.must be done to keep the UK in. In general, I would say,

:14:32. > :14:35.we're on the right way. We want the United Kingdom to remain

:14:36. > :14:38.an active and strong partner in an active and strong

:14:39. > :14:48.European Union. David Cameron is banking on a grand

:14:49. > :14:51.finale at the EU leaders' summit in a couple of weeks,

:14:52. > :14:54.where his reform deal is applauded by peers in Europe and presented

:14:55. > :14:57.to the British people. But the players on this stage

:14:58. > :15:01.are an unpredictable lot. The Prime Minister should be

:15:02. > :15:17.prepared to improvise. Live to Westminster and a few

:15:18. > :15:21.questions to put to our political editor. First one, Laura, do you

:15:22. > :15:25.think David Cameron has the makings of a deal here which can crucially,

:15:26. > :15:29.for him, minimise Conservative Party divisions? That's a question that's

:15:30. > :15:34.been hanging over all of this for months. There'll be relief in Number

:15:35. > :15:37.Ten that Theresa May has signalled strongly that she's likely to fall

:15:38. > :15:40.in behind the Prime Minister. One senior Government minister told me

:15:41. > :15:45.tonight that the deal is, in fact, a mess. And there is distinct

:15:46. > :15:48.grumpiness in Cabinet, amongst those who favour EU exit, that while the

:15:49. > :15:52.Prime Minister is out there extoling the virtues of this deal, they're

:15:53. > :15:55.expected to deal their mouths shut. That wasn't what they had expected.

:15:56. > :16:00.They thought that he would be quieter about what had been achieved

:16:01. > :16:04.and not, I think in the coming days, the truce might look a bit flakey.

:16:05. > :16:08.It might not hold in the coming days. On the shape of this proposed

:16:09. > :16:11.deal, how convinced is the Prime Minister that this is the kind of

:16:12. > :16:14.package that he can sell in a referendum possibly in the summer? I

:16:15. > :16:19.think they're conscious that there's a risk that they could be accused of

:16:20. > :16:23.breaking promises. There's no two ways about it, what is in the draft

:16:24. > :16:27.deal, limits on benefits, is not as strong, not as tight as what was

:16:28. > :16:31.promised in the Conservative manifesto a few short months ago.

:16:32. > :16:34.That said, Number Ten are adamant they've got significant concessions

:16:35. > :16:38.here. They've got real acknowledgement from the bureaucrats

:16:39. > :16:41.in Brussels, from the EU Council's president, Donald Tusk, that Britain

:16:42. > :16:45.does have a right to treat EU migrants differently to its own

:16:46. > :16:48.citizens. That, they believe, is significant progress and the basis,

:16:49. > :16:52.the shape of a deal that could convince those voters in the middle,

:16:53. > :16:55.who either haven't yet thought about this big question or haven't yet

:16:56. > :16:59.made up their minds whether they favour staying in the EU or favour

:17:00. > :17:03.leaving it all together. I have to say, if those on the other side

:17:04. > :17:09.really want to stop the Prime Minister setting the pace and the

:17:10. > :17:13.terms of this debate, with the June vote now likely, they need to grab

:17:14. > :17:19.this race and they need to do it fast. Thanks very much.

:17:20. > :17:21.The billionaire businessman, Donald Trump, says he will not be

:17:22. > :17:24.deterred by his defeat in the first public vote

:17:25. > :17:28.in the race to be the Republican presidential candidate.

:17:29. > :17:31.Mr Trump, widely considered the front-runner in the Iowa polls,

:17:32. > :17:33.was beaten by Senator Ted Cruz of Texas.

:17:34. > :17:35.On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton won

:17:36. > :17:42.Let's join our North America editor, Jon Sopel, in Des Moines.

:17:43. > :17:51.Huw, thank you. The map behind me shows that Hillary Clinton won. By

:17:52. > :17:55.the very tightest of margins over her left-wing rival. On the

:17:56. > :18:00.Republican side Ted Cruz won. Guess where the noise is coming from

:18:01. > :18:03.today? Donald Trump, moaning on social media that voters hadn't

:18:04. > :18:09.acknowledged his efforts in paying for his own campaign and also

:18:10. > :18:14.tearing into Ted Cruz's victory speech describing it as "rambling

:18:15. > :18:24.and over flamboyant." Donald Trump doing what he does,

:18:25. > :18:26.projecting himself as life's This is the fanfare literally

:18:27. > :18:29.he organised for himself when he arrived in Des

:18:30. > :18:35.Moines this weekend. The theme tune from

:18:36. > :18:47.the movie Airforce One. intervened and the man

:18:48. > :18:56.who hates losers lost. We will go on to get the Republican

:18:57. > :18:59.nomination and we go on to easily beat Hillary or Bernie or whoever

:19:00. > :19:02.the hell they throw up there. Well, Donald Trump has given

:19:03. > :19:05.not a victory speech, but a concession to Ted Cruz,

:19:06. > :19:08.however he says he's going to go on and hopes he will

:19:09. > :19:10.win in New Hampshire. This is a party that has gone very

:19:11. > :19:13.flat for Donald Trump. When I caught up with his son,

:19:14. > :19:17.he told me the fight goes on. We're still going to be working just

:19:18. > :19:20.as hard in New Hampshire and then South Carolina and then Nevada

:19:21. > :19:23.and we're not going to stop, The winner was a conservative

:19:24. > :19:27.insurgent, Senator Ted Cruz, another figure loathed

:19:28. > :19:29.by the Republican establishment and not that popular

:19:30. > :19:31.with his daughter either, But he had a brilliant ground game,

:19:32. > :19:39.clinically targeting his Tonight is a victory for courageous

:19:40. > :19:46.conservatives across Iowa The other perhaps more significant

:19:47. > :19:54.victory came for this man, with the red tie

:19:55. > :19:58.and the perma-smile. Yes, Marco Rubio only came third,

:19:59. > :20:01.but he way exceeded expectations and has emerged as the clear

:20:02. > :20:06.frontrunner for mainstream And on the Democratic Party side,

:20:07. > :20:20.half a dozen times last night, this

:20:21. > :20:22.is what it came down to. In the most eye-wateringly

:20:23. > :20:24.tight contest ever held. Delegate, for this precinct,

:20:25. > :20:27.it's Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton squeaked it

:21:21. > :21:26.Danny Savage, is there tonight. Huw, police described what happened

:21:27. > :21:29.here as a domestic-related incident. The bodies were found here late this

:21:40. > :21:43.of a man has been found on cliffs in Anglesey in North Wales and they

:21:44. > :21:52.believe that man is linked to the murders here.

:21:53. > :21:55.It was late this morning when police discovered three bodies in a modern

:22:00. > :22:01.A few hours later, they confirmed they were treating

:22:02. > :22:06.A woman's body was found downstairs and two children upstairs.

:22:07. > :22:12.You know, you see people in that house all the time,

:22:13. > :22:13.but I'd never spoken to them or anything.

:22:14. > :22:17.Police knocked on my door, I don't know, about 12.30pm to see

:22:18. > :22:26.Well, it hasn't sunk in, really, to be fair like.

:22:27. > :22:29.The two children are understood to be a girl aged around 11

:22:30. > :22:33.They were regulars in the play park just a few steps

:22:34. > :22:40.She was really bubbly and happy and she liked to just spend time

:23:09. > :23:10.Health officials in Texas are tonight reporting what they say

:23:11. > :23:13.is the first case of the Zika virus contracted in the United States.

:23:14. > :23:16.They say the person who has been infected hadn't travelled to any

:23:17. > :23:21.of the affected countries in Central and Latin America and believe

:23:22. > :23:24.Our North America correspondent, James Cook, is in Los Angeles

:23:25. > :23:32.James, what else are they saying about this? It's worth bearing in

:23:33. > :23:35.mind there is a lot we don't know about the Zika virus which has been

:23:36. > :23:40.linked to a serious disease in unborn children. It spread rapidly

:23:41. > :23:43.through countries in Latin America and Caribbean. The concern was it

:23:44. > :23:47.could spread through the United States, but that concern focused on

:23:48. > :23:52.the possibility of mosquitos spreading it, thought to be unlikely

:23:53. > :23:56.at this time of year in the winter. These health officials in Dallas are

:23:57. > :24:02.suggesting it has been a sfraed bisexual contact by a person who had

:24:03. > :24:06.returned from Venezuela to that person's sexual partner. I spoke to

:24:07. > :24:10.the scientists who carried out the testing at the Centres for Disease

:24:11. > :24:14.Control and Prevention, the US national organisation, he says he

:24:15. > :24:18.does not think that sexual transmission at this case has been

:24:19. > :24:24.proven to a sufficient standard of integrity ril, as he put it. He said

:24:25. > :24:29.it could be passed on saliva and blood and more testing was needed.

:24:30. > :24:35.As with so much else the advice is to keep away from affected areas

:24:36. > :24:37.when possible covering up when encounter mosquitos but scientists

:24:38. > :24:40.really want more research. James thank you very much. James Cook

:24:48. > :24:50.increasingly difficult to care for a huge number of

:24:51. > :24:52.refugees from Syria. King Abdullah has told the BBC

:24:53. > :24:54.that his country's infrastructure and services are under immense

:24:55. > :24:57.pressure and he'd called for help Jordan has taken some

:24:58. > :25:00.1.4 million Syrian refugees, in a country with a total population

:25:01. > :25:06.of around 9.5 million people, He says around a quarter of Jordan's

:25:07. > :25:09.budget is spent on King Abdullah will be in London this

:25:10. > :25:13.week to deliver a tough message He's spoken exclusively to our chief

:25:18. > :25:26.not a city, a camp - Zaatari camp, more than 80,000

:25:27. > :25:32.Syrian refugees live here. As big as it is, ten times more

:25:33. > :25:52.live in Jordan's city, But they're still

:26:02. > :26:03.or being carried themselves. A no-man's land between Syria

:26:04. > :26:06.and Jordan, it's no place to live. Some had been stuck here

:26:07. > :26:09.for months, and it shows. Only the most vulnerable

:26:10. > :26:10.are allowed in. Jordan suspects that the so-called

:26:11. > :26:15.Islamic State is hiding here. Everyone is checked

:26:16. > :26:17.for traces of explosives. Jordan is resisting pressure

:26:18. > :26:27.from the West to let more people in. This is a major national security

:26:28. > :26:30.problem for all of us. If you're going to take the higher

:26:31. > :26:33.moral ground on this issue, we'll get them all to an air base

:26:34. > :26:36.and we're more than happy Europe is saying to you -

:26:37. > :26:46.we don't want more refugees. You're saying you don't

:26:47. > :26:48.want any more refugees, We will continue to bring them

:26:49. > :26:52.across in limited numbers. We will continue to look after them

:27:12. > :27:14.refugees who left their country, What everyone needs

:27:15. > :27:28.is an end to the war. The King says world powers must

:27:42. > :27:45.of this land, that is the global threat and I'm hoping that's

:27:46. > :27:49.where the common ground is. And, if that can happen, then Syria

:27:50. > :27:52.could have a political solution. If not, it'll be a disaster

:28:33. > :28:36.known to his fans around the world by the alias Kaws -

:28:37. > :28:38.is embarking on his first major Yorkshire Sculpture Park is to host

:28:39. > :28:46.the exhibition which consists of a series of huge,

:28:47. > :28:49.cartoon sculptures which will be to the public for more

:28:50. > :28:51.than four months. Our arts editor, Will Gompertz,

:28:52. > :28:54.reports from West Bretton. How's this for an incongruous

:28:55. > :28:56.addition to the Yorkshire landscape, a 10-metre high cartoon-like figure

:28:57. > :28:59.inspired by American pop culture It's the work of a one-time graffiti

:29:00. > :29:04.artist from Brooklyn New York, who tried his hand at making toys

:29:05. > :29:08.which led to a big idea When working with wood and doing

:29:09. > :29:18.something at 10-metres, it's a different feeling

:29:19. > :29:20.from when you're, like, growing up and you're little

:29:21. > :29:24.and you have wooden toys and you can of put them on a shelf and make them

:29:25. > :29:28.do what you want and you walk into a space like this and you see

:29:29. > :29:30.these wooden toys that could suddenly carry

:29:31. > :29:33.you in their hand or you want to do something that kind

:29:34. > :29:35.of complements it. Like, I love the way that this

:29:36. > :29:38.sculpture falls almost at the same The artist of these works,

:29:39. > :29:42.real name Brian Donnelly, calls himself Kaws, a nom de plume

:29:43. > :29:45.from the time he'd illegally paint Nowadays, he's much more

:29:46. > :29:48.interested in the Smurfs. When I was a little a lot

:29:49. > :29:51.of times like, you know, I grew up on Smurfs,

:29:52. > :29:53.it's sort of a nostalgic This one, you're not quite sure

:29:54. > :29:57.if it's running from something or like running to warn

:29:58. > :29:59.you or running after you. Being chased by a giant black Smurf

:30:00. > :30:02.across a Yorkshire landscape? Sir Henry Moore and Dame Barbara

:30:03. > :30:14.Hepworth were two towering giants They were king and queen

:30:15. > :30:17.of British post-war modernism. Both were brought up a few

:30:18. > :30:20.miles from the park, their sculptures inspired

:30:21. > :30:22.by the local landscape and often A far cry from Kaws'

:30:23. > :30:26.pop-up inspired Americana. What do you think Dame Barbara

:30:27. > :30:28.Hepworth would have thought had she seen Kaws' sculptures

:30:29. > :30:30.in and around the same I think that she would recognise

:30:31. > :30:37.that sculpture has to change, that people collect new idioms

:30:38. > :30:40.from the world around them And, there's absolutely no

:30:41. > :30:46.doubt that any artist, looking at the way that Kaws works,

:30:47. > :30:49.wouldn't be intrigued. Kaws' sculptures may not be

:30:50. > :30:51.to everyone's taste, but they do pose some

:30:52. > :30:54.interesting questions, not least about the all-pervasive

:30:55. > :30:57.nature of popular culture from which there seems

:30:58. > :30:59.to be no escape, not even Will Gompertz, BBC
