:00:10. > :00:11.to the second-highest level on record.

:00:12. > :00:14.The difference between those coming to live here and those leaving

:00:15. > :00:16.reached more than 330,000 last year roughly half of them

:00:17. > :00:22.With four weeks to referendum day the Leave supporters say the focus

:00:23. > :00:27.of the campiagn has now shifted to immigration.

:00:28. > :00:30.The situation is completely out of control, the only way to sort it

:00:31. > :00:35.out is to vote leave on June 23rd and take back control.

:00:36. > :00:38.I'm not going to pretend these figures aren't disappointing,

:00:39. > :00:41.they show the challenges we continue to face, but we remain

:00:42. > :00:46.committed to reduce net migration to the long-term sustainable levels.

:00:47. > :00:48.We'll be looking at the latest immigration figures

:00:49. > :00:51.and what they could mean for the referendum campaign.

:00:52. > :00:55.After yesterday's dramatic rescue of hundreds of migrants dozens

:00:56. > :00:58.have died in another Mediterranean tragedy.

:00:59. > :01:04.In France, police have clashed with protestors in several cities

:01:05. > :01:14.in the latest demonstrations against new employment laws.

:01:15. > :01:19.And Donald Trump now has all the delegates he needs

:01:20. > :01:24.to become the Republican presidential candidate.

:01:25. > :01:27.I've spent less, I beat them by a lot, isn't that what you want

:01:28. > :01:34.from your President for at least a little while?

:01:35. > :01:41.Coming up in sports day on BBC News, Jose Mourinho returns home, after

:01:42. > :01:43.agreeing to be the new Manchester United manager. All that awaits now

:01:44. > :02:03.is the official announcement. Net migration to the UK has risen

:02:04. > :02:07.to the second-highest level on record, according

:02:08. > :02:13.to the latest official figures. The news was seized on by those

:02:14. > :02:15.campaigning for Britain to leave the EU who

:02:16. > :02:17.insisted that immigration was out of control and

:02:18. > :02:19.would never be tackled while Britain remained

:02:20. > :02:21.in the European Union. The referendum on the UK's

:02:22. > :02:23.future in the EU takes Today's figures show

:02:24. > :02:25.that the difference between the number

:02:26. > :02:27.of people moving here and those leaving

:02:28. > :02:29.was 333,000 last year. Within that figure the number

:02:30. > :02:31.coming from other EU The Government acknowledged

:02:32. > :02:34.the figure was too high but insisted that leaving the EU

:02:35. > :02:40.was not ther answer. but insisted that leaving

:02:41. > :02:42.the EU was not the answer. Our Political Editor

:02:43. > :02:43.Laura Kuenssberg reports. I am originally from Latvia,

:02:44. > :02:49.I came to the UK in 2012. My name is Victoria,

:02:50. > :02:52.I'm from Latvia, from Riga. I was born in Lithuania and in 2004,

:02:53. > :03:03.I stay here permanently. The names and the nations,

:03:04. > :03:08.not just the numbers, waves of workers and families

:03:09. > :03:11.who have come to the UK, perfectly legally

:03:12. > :03:14.from around Europe. I think you need to control

:03:15. > :03:20.the level of immigration. I think the UK should stay

:03:21. > :03:23.in the EU. But EU immigration, again at record

:03:24. > :03:37.levels today with a big increase from Bulgaria and Romania,

:03:38. > :03:39.it is central to the decision over That's because EU citizens can

:03:40. > :03:44.freely come and live here with no numerical limit, just

:03:45. > :03:51.as Brits can go elsewhere. Leaving's chief cheerleader says

:03:52. > :04:00.that the numbers the numbers aren't Leaving's chief cheerleader says

:04:01. > :04:02.that the numbers aren't just too high but trashed hits

:04:03. > :04:04.own party's promise. London is thriving with immigration

:04:05. > :04:08.but what you need is You need to be able to say to people

:04:09. > :04:11.from Australia, "Yes, Or to India, "Yes, we want your

:04:12. > :04:14.fantastic engineers." But it is crazy when we are pushing

:04:15. > :04:18.those people away and have absolutely no control over huge

:04:19. > :04:20.numbers of people coming Would you have any limits

:04:21. > :04:23.on numbers coming in? I think that the pledge

:04:24. > :04:26.that was made at the election was actually quite reasonable,

:04:27. > :04:36.to bring it down to the tens What was not reasonable

:04:37. > :04:42.to say you could do it within the EU system,

:04:43. > :04:43.and you can't. The EU basically treats Britain

:04:44. > :04:46.as though it were part of one You said it was cynical to make that

:04:47. > :04:51.promise and stay in the EU, now that's a different thing,

:04:52. > :04:53.you are suggesting it And he'll use that to

:04:54. > :04:58.try to get you on side. The campaign has been politically

:04:59. > :05:00.ugly in Westminster for weeks. It got a bit testy

:05:01. > :05:04.on the stump today. Believe it or not, this gorilla

:05:05. > :05:06.complained to the police One man ended up on the

:05:07. > :05:14.ground in the frenzy. The trouble for the Government's

:05:15. > :05:18.seide is that they are miles off The trouble for the Government's

:05:19. > :05:21.side is that they are miles off In 2010, they promised to get

:05:22. > :05:28.immigration under 100,000 - right now it is more

:05:29. > :05:30.than three times that. But roughly half is

:05:31. > :05:32.from outside of the EU. Reducing the net migration

:05:33. > :05:34.to the sustainable levels that existed before Labour lost

:05:35. > :05:36.control in the late 1990s, remains absolutely the right focus

:05:37. > :05:40.because of the pressure on public services and the speed

:05:41. > :05:42.of rate to change. That remains the intent

:05:43. > :05:46.of this Government. But the man who was Home Secretary,

:05:47. > :05:49.when Eastern European countries joined, says leaving

:05:50. > :05:52.would be no solution. The Leave campaign, by talking

:05:53. > :05:59.in theory but not demonstrating in practice what they would do

:06:00. > :06:02.on something as crucial as immigration, I think

:06:03. > :06:04.they are misleading people. Did you imagine anything

:06:05. > :06:06.like the numbers of people coming from other European countries

:06:07. > :06:08.to this country when you There is no question in my mind

:06:09. > :06:13.that we did not anticipate back A clear conclusion with the benefit

:06:14. > :06:19.of looking back. Deep feelings, strong

:06:20. > :06:20.arguments over immigration, Our Home Editor Mark

:06:21. > :06:46.Easton is here. So, four weeks to polling day.

:06:47. > :06:51.We we have the set of figures is it your sense that the terms of the

:06:52. > :06:55.debate are changing? I think that the EU referendum encouraged a sew

:06:56. > :07:00.fisticated debate about immigration. Not least as the Government's

:07:01. > :07:05.pressing case to remain has to defend free movement of workers. So

:07:06. > :07:11.instead of fixating on big numbers, the discussion has to some extent

:07:12. > :07:19.been about the trade-offs, the advantages as well as the

:07:20. > :07:24.disadvantages of the staying in. So the Leave campaign focuses on the

:07:25. > :07:33.traditions of our way of life, how the effects make us feel uneasy. The

:07:34. > :07:40.Remain, focuses on the I immediacy in turn. And then the pressure on

:07:41. > :07:44.the public resources and the Leave campaigners talk about pressure on

:07:45. > :07:49.migrants in schools, hospitals, housing. And Supporters of Remain

:07:50. > :07:52.say that is about poor planning. To anticipate population growth.

:07:53. > :07:56.Migrants create economic growth and they keep our health service

:07:57. > :08:00.running. So #w457d during the course of the referendum debate is that the

:08:01. > :08:04.discussion has shifted from immigration as a big threatening

:08:05. > :08:09.thing to a series of discussions. Divert, good or bad. Migrant

:08:10. > :08:12.workers, what is the impact to be? Refugees, international students,

:08:13. > :08:18.what do we think about them? And yes, also about the numbers but is

:08:19. > :08:22.it about managing immigration, managing population change, or is it

:08:23. > :08:29.about saying whatever the trade-offs, enough is enough? Mark,

:08:30. > :08:34.And the BBC's reality check team has been looking at the migration

:08:35. > :08:36.figures and the arguments behind them plenty more

:08:37. > :08:48.It's feared that dozens more migrants have drowned today

:08:49. > :08:50.after their boat sank off the coast of Libya.

:08:51. > :08:52.The news came through as survivors of another sinking were being

:08:53. > :09:02.Their vessel capsized yesterday, more than 550 were rescued

:09:03. > :09:05.but there are reports that around 100 people could be missing.

:09:06. > :09:07.The boat went down off the north coast of Libya

:09:08. > :09:10.on a route favoured by migrants trying to reach Italy.

:09:11. > :09:14.From Sicily our correspondent James Reynolds reports.

:09:15. > :09:16.Italy's Navy approaches the migrants' overcrowded boat.

:09:17. > :09:19.On deck, the migrants are desperate to see their rescuers.

:09:20. > :09:23.They crowd forwards, causing the boat to tilt.

:09:24. > :09:33.A handful find refuge on the overturned hull.

:09:34. > :09:46.They try to reach the rescue boats in front of them.

:09:47. > :09:52.The Navy has just minutes to save hundreds from drowning.

:09:53. > :09:58.The captain of the rescue ship orders his sailors to throw life

:09:59. > :10:04.The Navy dispatches a small rescue boat.

:10:05. > :10:12.He is too exhausted to show any relief.

:10:13. > :10:16.More make it onto the overturned hull.

:10:17. > :10:24.In the end, the Navy rescues almost everyone it finds.

:10:25. > :10:27.This afternoon, the rescue ship arrived here in Sicily.

:10:28. > :10:32.The survivors of the shipwreck are lucky to be alive.

:10:33. > :10:35.They will believe they owe their lives to the Italian rescuers

:10:36. > :10:39.who picked them from the sea and who have now brought

:10:40. > :10:48.I asked him to describe what happened.

:10:49. > :10:53.We needed to throw into the water as much as we could,

:10:54. > :10:56.what ever was able to float, we sent into the water,

:10:57. > :11:03.so that people were able to catch it and grab it and stay alive.

:11:04. > :11:05.Italy will question the survivors further.

:11:06. > :11:08.Who, if anyone was steering the migrant boat?

:11:09. > :11:17.The country's Navy is still at work in the Mediterranean.

:11:18. > :11:20.These pictures, shot earlier today, show migrants waving their lives

:11:21. > :11:32.James Reynolds, BBC News, Sicily.

:11:33. > :11:35.In France, the protests against proposed new employment laws

:11:36. > :11:37.have intensified with police firing tear gas

:11:38. > :11:41.at demonstrators in Paris and there were further clashes

:11:42. > :11:47.Oil depots, motorways and bridges were barricaded in some areas.

:11:48. > :11:50.There are seven trades unions leading the protests

:11:51. > :11:53.they say they're against relaxing employment laws and making them more

:11:54. > :12:02.Our Paris correspondent Lucy Williamson reports.

:12:03. > :12:06.They fought for many things in Paris.

:12:07. > :12:12.Today it was not liberty or equality, but the 35-hour week.

:12:13. > :12:15.The strikes and closures of the past few days,

:12:16. > :12:18.shifting to violence in the tree-lined streets.

:12:19. > :12:24.Others brought eggs, missiles, paint.

:12:25. > :12:28.On the edge of this wide boulevard, marchers watch as a small

:12:29. > :12:34.group of anarchists kick a showroom window in.

:12:35. > :12:37.The government's gamble is that as well as protest,

:12:38. > :12:44.France's employers, it says, need more freedom to negotiate

:12:45. > :12:49.overtime, maternity leave, bonuses and to fire

:12:50. > :12:54.staff, if their companies are running into debt.

:12:55. > :12:57.But the country's next generation of workers say they want the same

:12:58. > :13:08.Like our future generation, our generation, the former

:13:09. > :13:16.generation have today, we all need these rights to live.

:13:17. > :13:18.Many in France accept the need for a more flexible

:13:19. > :13:21.economy but among the unions there's a sense of anger

:13:22. > :13:23.and betrayal, that a socialist government could be the one

:13:24. > :13:30.Just hours after the government said it would consider modifications

:13:31. > :13:34.to its labour reforms, this is the response of the unions:

:13:35. > :13:41.more demonstrations, more strikes, more disruption.

:13:42. > :13:44.With petrol stations running out of fuel, oil tankers wait

:13:45. > :13:48.outside French ports, sitting out the strikes.

:13:49. > :13:52.The protesters may be a minority but they drive France's trains,

:13:53. > :13:57.work its nuclear plants and process its oil.

:13:58. > :14:00.And with strikes beginning to bite, the Prime Minister has

:14:01. > :14:02.hinted that there might be room for compromise.

:14:03. > :14:06.TRANSLATION: It's out of the question to change

:14:07. > :14:09.the framework of Labour reform, but there can always be some

:14:10. > :14:17.But union leaders say that unless the law is scrapped,

:14:18. > :14:20.the protests will continue, because this dispute over pay,

:14:21. > :14:24.working hours and the role of the unions is also a battle

:14:25. > :14:35.between two competing kinds of power in France.

:14:36. > :14:39.Lucy Williamson, BBC News, northern France.

:14:40. > :14:41.Donald Trump has now secured enough support to win

:14:42. > :14:44.the Republican Party's nomination for the US presidential election.

:14:45. > :14:47.The latest figures indicate that Mr Trump has the backing of 1,238

:14:48. > :14:48.delegates to the Republican convention in July,

:14:49. > :14:51.where the party's nomination will be formally approved.

:14:52. > :14:54.But some of the party's leading figures are still unwilling

:14:55. > :14:56.to declare their support, and President Obama has warned that

:14:57. > :14:58.world leaders are rattled by Mr Trump's policies.

:14:59. > :15:11.Our North America editor, Jon Sopel, reports.

:15:12. > :15:16.Another rally another town. The difference today is that Donald

:15:17. > :15:20.Trump has crossed the finish line and has the 50% plus one of delegate

:15:21. > :15:25.votes needed to guarantee the Republican nomination You brought us

:15:26. > :15:31.over the lines, folks, I will always remember that. This is Bismarck,

:15:32. > :15:36.north Dakota. There's been more than a touch of the Russian general in

:15:37. > :15:39.the same name by Donald Trump to demolish his opponents. The ripples

:15:40. > :15:45.from the Republican race are fanning out across the world. Most notably

:15:46. > :15:48.at the G 7 meeting in Japan, where President Barack Obama spoke of the

:15:49. > :15:54.concerns being raised with him. It's fair to say that they are surprised

:15:55. > :16:03.by the Republican nominee. They are not sure how seriously to take some

:16:04. > :16:10.of his pronouncements, but they're rattled by him and for good reason,

:16:11. > :16:16.because a lot of the proposals that he's made display either ignorance

:16:17. > :16:20.of world affairs or a cavalier attitude. But at his news

:16:21. > :16:24.conference, Donald Trump was keen to fire back. Forget being on the

:16:25. > :16:28.defensive, he was delighted by the discomfort that he was causing. When

:16:29. > :16:33.you rattle someone, that's good, because many of the world, as you

:16:34. > :16:37.know, many of the countries in our world, our beautiful world, this is

:16:38. > :16:41.absolutely abusing us and taking advantage of us. So if they're

:16:42. > :16:44.rattled, in a friendly way, we're going to have great relationships

:16:45. > :16:48.with these countries, but if they're rattled in a friendly way, that's a

:16:49. > :16:53.good thing, not a bad thick. -- thing. Donald Trump has so far seen

:16:54. > :16:58.off his 16 Republican rivals, many of them with decades of political

:16:59. > :17:03.experience at the highest level. And the only person standing between him

:17:04. > :17:07.and the White House is whoever emerges as the Democratic nominee,

:17:08. > :17:14.presumably Hillary Clinton. And that is a fight he's going to relish.

:17:15. > :17:19.A brief look at some of the day's other news stories.

:17:20. > :17:21.MPs are calling for greater transparency over the role

:17:22. > :17:25.It follows press reports that they've been helping local militias

:17:26. > :17:30.The Ministry of Defence says it doesn't comment

:17:31. > :17:40.A British woman has died, after a speedboat

:17:41. > :17:42.capsized in Thailand, the Foreign Office has confirmed.

:17:43. > :17:44.A British man is also believed to be missing.

:17:45. > :17:47.The boat - carrying 32 passengers and four crew - was apparently

:17:48. > :17:49.overturned by large waves say local police.

:17:50. > :17:50.Jose Mourinho is to become Manchester United's

:17:51. > :17:55.He's yet to sign his contract, but a formal announcement

:17:56. > :18:04.Ministers are considering plans to cut the pension benefits given

:18:05. > :18:06.to steelworkers to make it a more attractive business

:18:07. > :18:11.Tata Steel is currently considering several bids

:18:12. > :18:14.for its UK business, and the Business Secretary,

:18:15. > :18:17.Sajid Javid, says he wants to remove potential barriers to a sale.

:18:18. > :18:19.But the plans are controversial, with one former pensions minister

:18:20. > :18:21.warning that it would be a very dangerous path to take.

:18:22. > :18:29.Our business editor, Simon Jack, has more details.

:18:30. > :18:31.The promise of a future for thousands of UK steel workers may

:18:32. > :18:34.see promises broken to tens of thousands from the past.

:18:35. > :18:37.The old British steel pension scheme is one of the UK's biggest.

:18:38. > :18:44.Now run by Tata, there are 130,000 members

:18:45. > :18:46.who collectively have been promised a total

:18:47. > :18:52.of ?15 million and it is currently ?700 million in deficit.

:18:53. > :18:55.That is a burden which could prove too much

:18:56. > :19:03.So the Government has a plan to lighten the load.

:19:04. > :19:07.What we can do is listen to Tata, listen to the bidders and work with

:19:08. > :19:08.everyone involved to remove potential barriers to sell.

:19:09. > :19:11.For example, we are today launching a consultation on options to deliver

:19:12. > :19:18.clarity and security for British Steel pension scheme members.

:19:19. > :19:20.What does this plan to provide pension security involve?

:19:21. > :19:24.It means cutting the amount pension increase every

:19:25. > :19:27.year by roughly 1% by using the consumer price

:19:28. > :19:30.measure of inflation, rather than the generally higher

:19:31. > :19:35.That doesn't sound like much, but it adds up over time.

:19:36. > :19:38.For example, if you were due a pension of over ?100 a week now, in

:19:39. > :19:44.Under the new deal, you would get just ?149.

:19:45. > :19:47.That is a discount of 18% in your income.

:19:48. > :19:53.Pensions earned before 1997 get no increase at all.

:19:54. > :19:56.If you add up all those cuts over the decades,

:19:57. > :20:03.it saves ?2 billion, hey presto, deficit gone.

:20:04. > :20:05.So, what do workers past and present make of it?

:20:06. > :20:12.We've paid in, we have got our pension but we need to be

:20:13. > :20:13.protecting the people who are still there,

:20:14. > :20:19.At the end of the day, we were them 25 years ago and we know

:20:20. > :20:22.what it is like to struggle and we need to have some sympathy

:20:23. > :20:29.Even if it is worth it, does a supposedly one-off special deal set

:20:30. > :20:36.The bulk of potential pension schemes have a hole in them.

:20:37. > :20:38.There will be people who want to look at this

:20:39. > :20:41.with their lawyers to see if they can benefit as well.

:20:42. > :20:44.Pension trustees and some unions played is better than an alternative

:20:45. > :20:49.rescue fund which would see some pensions cut by 10%.

:20:50. > :20:52.Will it tempt a buyer or perhaps persuade Tata to stay?

:20:53. > :21:00.This shows the government is feeling the heat from this

:21:01. > :21:10.So with four weeks to EU referendum day, hundreds of young voters have

:21:11. > :21:12.been taking part in a special BBC debate in Glasgow,

:21:13. > :21:14.and among the issues raised were education,

:21:15. > :21:19.Our Scotland editor, Sarah Smith, is in Glasgow

:21:20. > :21:31.They're deriging here after what was a feisty debate. The audience were

:21:32. > :21:35.arguing passionately with each other, as well as giving the

:21:36. > :21:40.politicians a hard time. They told them that the campaign so far had

:21:41. > :21:44.been too negative, that it wasn't informative enough.

:21:45. > :21:51.Good evening, welcome to How Should I Vote: The EU debate. With four

:21:52. > :21:56.weeks to go to the referendum, younger voters from across the UK,

:21:57. > :22:00.many of them undecided, put their questions to leading campaigners for

:22:01. > :22:05.and against the UK leaving the European Union. Will I have a job if

:22:06. > :22:10.we leave the EU? Will the economy be strong enough? The Leave side said

:22:11. > :22:13.economic migration to the UK from other EU countries was making it

:22:14. > :22:19.harder to find work here. I think you stand a far better chance of a

:22:20. > :22:23.good job, a job that you're not competing with potentially thousands

:22:24. > :22:28.of other Europeans, if we actually leave the European Union. We've got

:22:29. > :22:35.2. 2 million EU workers here already. They've taken effectively

:22:36. > :22:39.UK jobs. The Remain side stressed the opportunities - free movement

:22:40. > :22:44.across the EU offers people from this country. You've got the whole

:22:45. > :22:48.of that European Community at your disposal. A qualified person in

:22:49. > :22:55.particular has got an excellent chance of employment. The straight

:22:56. > :22:58.answer to your question, it wouldn't be an economic Apocalypse if we left

:22:59. > :23:02.the European Union, but there are more jobs and more chances if we

:23:03. > :23:05.stay in. The exchanges between audience members were even sharper.

:23:06. > :23:08.We have a housing shortage now. But the more we let in, the less houses

:23:09. > :23:13.we're going to have to house them. So how do you work that out? It's

:23:14. > :23:18.funny that you've got a selective memory. Remember how many immigrants

:23:19. > :23:22.like my family, like a lot of the people in this audience's family

:23:23. > :23:26.built this nation. When an audience member claims the UK contributes

:23:27. > :23:30.?350 million a week to the EU, the Remain side said the figure was half

:23:31. > :23:34.that and worth it. What we get back according to all the analysis is

:23:35. > :23:39.between three and ten times that value, because of our opportunity.

:23:40. > :23:45.Tonight's debate helped some in the audience make Thirimanne minds. Both

:23:46. > :23:46.sides will be hoping to have persuaded undecided voters in the

:23:47. > :23:56.country too. The Leave side went on to argue that

:23:57. > :23:59.the money saved from not paying contributions in the European Union

:24:00. > :24:02.could be spent on public services here. They were arguing about issues

:24:03. > :24:07.that matter across the UK. If you look at opinion polls here in

:24:08. > :24:10.Scotland, it's very interesting, consistently about two thirds of

:24:11. > :24:13.voters say they would like to remain in the EU. I've been round the

:24:14. > :24:17.country asking voters what issues matter most to them. I started off

:24:18. > :24:19.in the Hebrides. Navigating through the swell

:24:20. > :24:22.of arguments in the EU debate looks a little different in Scotland's

:24:23. > :24:25.more remote communities. On the Isle of Islay,

:24:26. > :24:28.the ferry docks at a harbour entirely rebuilt with millions

:24:29. > :24:30.of pounds of European funding. Europe consumes about

:24:31. > :24:33.half of the island's A recent surge in sales has seen

:24:34. > :24:39.the Bruichladdich Distillery It's now producing ten

:24:40. > :24:45.million bottles a year, They're convinced leaving

:24:46. > :24:53.the EU could have dire consequences for an industry

:24:54. > :24:56.the island relies on. It has really lifted the local

:24:57. > :25:05.economy in a very dramatic way. And the thought that it might

:25:06. > :25:12.actually be threatened in some way is really quite scary,

:25:13. > :25:18.and the idea that we may return to those dark ages, which many,

:25:19. > :25:22.many, many people on this island will remember, doesn't

:25:23. > :25:26.bear thinking about. Whisky is one of Scotland's biggest

:25:27. > :25:29.exports. Bruichladdich admit they don't

:25:30. > :25:32.know what would happen to sales if we leave the EU,

:25:33. > :25:35.but say even that uncertainty could Of course, people won't choose how

:25:36. > :25:39.to vote based purely on whether or not they think EU

:25:40. > :25:42.membership is good for business. Less than two years

:25:43. > :25:45.after the independence referendum here in Scotland,

:25:46. > :25:48.voters know this is a decision The EU referendum also raises

:25:49. > :25:54.questions of identity Voters must look into their hearts

:25:55. > :25:59.as well as their heads. In Edinburgh, people

:26:00. > :26:02.who are campaigning on each side to leave and to remain,

:26:03. > :26:05.think perceptions of national identity may help explain

:26:06. > :26:09.how Scots will vote. We're used to having

:26:10. > :26:12.a split identity. We would identify ourselves

:26:13. > :26:16.as being both Scottish and also British, which are two quite

:26:17. > :26:20.separate identities. Perhaps we're more accepting of

:26:21. > :26:26.having this third European identity. Whilst those who want to leave feel

:26:27. > :26:29.they have lost control of the decisions that

:26:30. > :26:32.govern their lives. There's a lot of things

:26:33. > :26:35.that we don't get our say in because of the EU

:26:36. > :26:37.having their own rules. We've got tons of things that we

:26:38. > :26:40.would like to control over here. They take them over

:26:41. > :26:42.to the European Union and they're like, no,

:26:43. > :26:45.you can't have that. There are plenty of

:26:46. > :26:50.sceptics in Scotland. In what remains of the country's

:26:51. > :26:53.industrial belt near Glasgow, workers worry about immigration

:26:54. > :26:56.and its impact on jobs. In a factory full of hydraulic

:26:57. > :27:03.pumps, many destined for Europe, worries about the economic impact

:27:04. > :27:09.of leaving the EU are dismissed. Trade will continue,

:27:10. > :27:11.they're certain. Think we're to get out of this

:27:12. > :27:14.perception if we leave the EU, we're pulling up a drawbridge

:27:15. > :27:17.at Calais and right, Pragmatically, realistically,

:27:18. > :27:25.that is not going to happen. Intriguingly, the parts of Scotland

:27:26. > :27:27.most eager to leave the UK and become independent are also

:27:28. > :27:31.the parts most likely to vote If they do so in large enough

:27:32. > :27:49.numbers, it could be Scottish votes If that does happen, if there's a

:27:50. > :27:53.tight vote, and it is seen to be a majority of Scots who voted to stay

:27:54. > :27:57.in the EU that keeps the whole of the UK inside, that could cause

:27:58. > :28:00.repercussions throughout the UK. There could be resentment about

:28:01. > :28:06.that. If it goes the other way, if there's a vote to leave, but a

:28:07. > :28:10.majority of Scots voted to remain, Alex Salmond said at this debate

:28:11. > :28:13.here tonight, he thinks that would trigger a second referendum on

:28:14. > :28:16.Scottish independence, that within the two years in which Britain was

:28:17. > :28:20.negotiating to leave the EU, there would be another vote here in

:28:21. > :28:24.Scotland as to whether or not Scotland should leave the UK. The

:28:25. > :28:28.repercussions of this may be felt for quite some time to come.

:28:29. > :28:31.Thanks very much. Sarah Smith our Scotland editor in Glasgow.

:28:32. > :28:33.This weekend in Venice, a team of young British architects

:28:34. > :28:36.will showcase some new ideas about how to design and build

:28:37. > :28:38.comfortable homes at a time of severe housing shortages.

:28:39. > :28:41.The Architecture Biennale provides an opportunity for architects

:28:42. > :28:43.and designers to share new projects, arranged in different pavilions,

:28:44. > :28:48.and the British one will focus on the housing theme.

:28:49. > :28:55.Our arts editor, Will Gompertz, reports.

:28:56. > :28:57.The man-made masterpiece that is Venice.

:28:58. > :29:00.Not somewhere you might think of as a place to try to solve

:29:01. > :29:05.But these three young curators think it is.

:29:06. > :29:08.Their show in the British Pavilion argues our attitude

:29:09. > :29:13.It shouldn't be how big it is, but how long you need it for,

:29:14. > :29:18.Who needs a house just for a few days?

:29:19. > :29:20.And in what way do these fulfil that function?

:29:21. > :29:23.Well, why don't we jump in, I'll tell you.

:29:24. > :29:32.Well, I can see it might work to amuse the kids,

:29:33. > :29:35.but I can't quite see how it works as a home.

:29:36. > :29:37.These are almost representative of the sorts of virtual

:29:38. > :29:42.When you're somewhere for a couple of days,

:29:43. > :29:46.the first thing you might want to do is connect to the virtual networks

:29:47. > :29:48.that make us feel that we're connected to friends and families.

:29:49. > :29:51.It's an interesting point, but I'm not so sure about the Zorbs.

:29:52. > :29:56.Wouldn't a good, old-fashioned tent do the same job better?

:29:57. > :30:03.I can't say what's the big idea, because it's a tiny space.

:30:04. > :30:08.Homeownership's increasingly out of reach for our generation.

:30:09. > :30:10.A lot of us are living month to month, paying rent.

:30:11. > :30:13.The idea here is how can you redesign rent?

:30:14. > :30:16.You have everything you need, a bed upstairs, a bathroom here

:30:17. > :30:22.You can survive quite happily within this small core.

:30:23. > :30:25.Beyond that, you have a space, if you imagine a series of other

:30:26. > :30:28.blue totems in the distance that you can share with your

:30:29. > :30:36.I think you're onto something here, a contemporary take on the boarding

:30:37. > :30:39.house, affordable city living for the i-generation.

:30:40. > :30:42.Who might aspire to this home for years?

:30:43. > :30:45.I've got to say, it's kind of sparse.

:30:46. > :30:51.One of the biggest problems in UK housing today is speculation.

:30:52. > :30:55.Of course, fittings and furnishings have become engines

:30:56. > :31:01.What we tried to do here is to create the minimum house,

:31:02. > :31:04.by pulling out all the interior and stripping it back

:31:05. > :31:07.to what we call the naked house, or a shell, to give

:31:08. > :31:13.Their most radical proposition is the notion of individuals pooling

:31:14. > :31:16.resources for a better quality of life.

:31:17. > :31:19.Domestic appliances, clothes and even shoes could be shared.

:31:20. > :31:22.An idea that might seem a little far fetched to some, but for these

:31:23. > :31:25.millennials, who have grown up in an age of student debt

:31:26. > :31:28.and rocketing house prices, it could just be a practical

:31:29. > :31:49.Tonight, is a big energy problem about to hit? We reveal doubts that

:31:50. > :31:53.the French deal with EDF to build a nuclear plant at Hinckley Point will

:31:54. > :31:56.ever deliver. Join me now on BBC Two, 11pm in Scotland.
