:04:10. > :04:12.at their face, rapture, Jeremy Corbyn has touched parts of the
:04:13. > :04:16.electorate Labour hasn't reached for a long time. The membership is still
:04:17. > :04:20.growing and he believes in the race still ahead he will keep their faith

:04:32. > :04:35.After more than five-and-a-half hours of deliberation, in the last
:04:36. > :04:41.few minutes a decision. Jeremy Corbyn has again taken on the Labour
:04:42. > :04:45.Party establishment and won. He will automatically be on the ballot in
:04:46. > :04:49.Labour's leadership contest in the coming weeks. The race is already
:04:50. > :04:53.nasty, though, a brick was hurled through the Merseyside office of the
:04:54. > :04:57.MP who wants to replace Mr Jeremy Corbyn. Then Angela Eagle had to
:04:58. > :05:01.switch venues on a campaign tour because of threats. Protesters still
:05:02. > :05:05.tracked her down. The abuse has been condemned by Angela Eagle and Jeremy
:05:06. > :05:09.Corbyn but she's ready to take him on. I'm pleased the NEC has made a
:05:10. > :05:13.firm decision and that this leadership contest can go ahead. I'm
:05:14. > :05:18.looking forward to having a debate with Jeremy Corbyn about the things
:05:19. > :05:22.that really matter to our country and in the aftermath of the Brexit
:05:23. > :05:25.vote, where our communities have been really hard-hit, it is about
:05:26. > :05:29.uniting the Labour Party and making the case for a Labour Party that
:05:30. > :05:33.isn't just a protest party but is actually a party that aspires to get
:05:34. > :05:36.into Government and make a real difference. But it's been a huge
:05:37. > :05:39.struggle on both sides of this party. For that is what they are.

:05:54. > :05:59.forward. Good afternoon. Lovely to see you
:06:00. > :06:03.all. And one man is fighting on. Can we have a bit of politeness? Can you
:06:04. > :06:06.make way? Thank you very much. With faith in his support and his
:06:07. > :06:11.direction, thousands and thousands of members behind him, but if Jeremy
:06:12. > :06:14.Corbyn wins again, one party, one Labour Party? Maybe not for good.
:06:15. > :06:20.Good luck Jeremy. The divisions within Labour

:13:00. > :13:01.a Remain vote in the referendum. Mr Cameron had billed himself
:13:02. > :13:04.as a "one-nation Conservative" who, at one stage, urged his party

:13:29. > :13:32.wants to be remembered as a leader who worked to improve the lot of
:13:33. > :13:38.everyone, whatever their background, a One Nation Conservative. It was
:13:39. > :13:42.his desire, maybe through guilt as an Etonian, or whatever, to spread
:13:43. > :13:46.opportunity, to give all people, regardless of race and social class
:13:47. > :13:51.and regions, equal and fair opportunities. He came to power the
:13:52. > :13:57.youngest Prime Minister for almost 200 years, fresh-faced and fizzing
:13:58. > :14:00.with ideas. The "big society" encouraged actedive citizenship,
:14:01. > :14:05.volunteering. He created the national citizens service. This is
:14:06. > :14:09.the "big society" made real. Cameron wanted to promote civic engagement
:14:10. > :14:14.and clamp-down on state dependency. But to some he was using charity to
:14:15. > :14:18.cover for austerity. Small government was just code for cuts. I
:14:19. > :14:27.don't believe that the "big society" just springs up of its own accord.
:14:28. > :14:30.What you need to do is try to help galvanisep communities. Where people
:14:31. > :14:33.want to get things done, let's help them. David Cameron claimed his Tory
:14:34. > :14:37.Party was best-placed to tackle poverty. It may have raised the
:14:38. > :14:41.hackles of those on the Tory right but he was happy to be seen as a
:14:42. > :14:45.Prime Minister who would hug-a-hoodie. Adult society's
:14:46. > :14:48.response to the hoodie, shows how far we are from finding the
:14:49. > :14:54.long-term answers to putting things right. He believed in the redemptive
:14:55. > :14:57.power of work, introducing welfare reforms that used financial
:14:58. > :15:02.incentives and a stick of sanctions to help push employment to record
:15:03. > :15:05.levels. His critics accuse David Cameron of having waged an
:15:06. > :15:10.ideological war against the poor. His cuts to benefits and services
:15:11. > :15:14.creating a land of food banks, rising homeless nces and profound
:15:15. > :15:19.inequality. He may have tried, some will say, but it wasn't good enough.
:15:20. > :15:24.David Cameron knew poverty was real in the UK. He knew it caused real
:15:25. > :15:27.harm. I think he was really committed to doing something about
:15:28. > :15:31.it and said a lot about it, but the figures don't stack up. There are 13
:15:32. > :15:36.million people living in poverty in the UK today, still. He hasn't met
:15:37. > :15:40.his targets. David Cameron once said he wanted to know how to put not
:15:41. > :15:45.just money in people's pockets but joy in their hearts. He started
:15:46. > :15:49.official measurement of well being, and is proudest perhaps of having
:15:50. > :15:53.brought in gay marriage. APPLAUSE
:15:54. > :15:58.He thought he understood Britain and that by empowering people to take
:15:59. > :16:04.control of their destiny, he would create a better country. But while
:16:05. > :16:08.eating beans and potato in the canteen at school today, he may have
:16:09. > :16:09.reflect today was his misjudgment of the national mood that led to his
:16:10. > :16:11.down fall. Our political editor
:16:12. > :16:17.Laura Kuenssberg is at Westminster. Two things to talk about, the
:16:18. > :16:20.Cameron legacy, I will come to that in a moment. I want to ask you about
:16:21. > :16:23.what's happened to the Labour Party tonight and this leadership question
:16:24. > :16:28.back in the hands of the members again. It is. Jeremy Corbyn is
:16:29. > :16:32.either made of Teflon, or he's the most stubborn man in politics or the
:16:33. > :16:36.most determined man in politics, determined to stick to the mandate
:16:37. > :16:38.that he believes he has from thousands and thousands and
:16:39. > :16:44.thousands of party members who put their trust in him. Labour MPs
:16:45. > :16:47.started off complaining privately, then publicly, then resigning from
:16:48. > :16:51.frontbench positions in huge number and then today, they threw the
:16:52. > :16:55.party's rule book at him and still that failed and he fought all of
:16:56. > :17:03.those challenges off. There may yet be another move in the courts to try
:17:04. > :17:08.to challenge tonight's decision, believe it or not. We are into a
:17:09. > :17:12.phase where this goes back to the members to make up their minds with
:17:13. > :17:16.Angela eagle, the leadership candidate so far, there may be more,
:17:17. > :17:19.set to challenge him. This time it will be a different race among the
:17:20. > :17:24.members. A couple of significant rule changes were also agreed at the
:17:25. > :17:28.executive committee decision-making process tonight. Unless people have
:17:29. > :17:32.been a member of the Labour Party since before January, they will not
:17:33. > :17:35.be allowed to vote in this. There's a six-month cut off. Anybody who
:17:36. > :17:40.joined the party in the last six months will not have a say. Remember
:17:41. > :17:43.those ?3 registered supporters who signed up in their droves, many of
:17:44. > :17:48.them to back Jeremy Corbyn, this time round, they'd have to pay ?25
:17:49. > :17:54.for the same privilege and there is a time cut Ofili on that period too.
:17:55. > :17:58.-- cut-off on that period too. We are looking at a different
:17:59. > :18:02.leadership race. Part of the dynamic will be the same in Westminster for
:18:03. > :18:06.the last ten months. He does not have the backing of most MPs in
:18:07. > :18:10.Westminster, but he believes that he can rely on and excite the support
:18:11. > :18:14.of thousands of members around the country. And here we are, on the eve
:18:15. > :18:19.of David Cameron's departure from Downing Street, and a very real
:18:20. > :18:22.sense that he's trying to, I suppose, define his legacy on his
:18:23. > :18:26.own terms. Indeed. But I think whether he likes it or not, and I
:18:27. > :18:31.suspect that he does not like it, the events of the last three weeks,
:18:32. > :18:35.that monumental decision that the country took to choose to leave the
:18:36. > :18:40.European Union will be his biggest legacy. It was his biggest gamble
:18:41. > :18:46.for a politician who liked to make big gestures. It was his biggest
:18:47. > :18:49.failure. It will shape and colour his legacy, in part, because it
:18:50. > :18:53.doesn't just influence what happens over the road. It doesn't just
:18:54. > :18:57.influence what happens in the other seats of power around the UK,
:18:58. > :19:00.Holyrood, Stormont or in Cardiff. It doesn't just influence what happens
