:08:43. > :08:46.the deal brokered by the Russians is by no means perfect and was very
:08:47. > :08:51.open about that but also said this, in his view, maybe it's the last
:08:52. > :08:54.chance to see a united Syria. The problem is we've had ceasefires
:08:55. > :08:58.before and they have not always lasted and the opposition groups are
:08:59. > :09:02.very sceptical about this one. Some of them are very rotten to break
:09:03. > :09:06.away from their allies of links to Al-Qaeda as a dealer requires them
:09:07. > :09:10.to but many of them also simply don't believe Syrians will do what
:09:11. > :09:13.the Russians are asking, namely that they end the barrel bombing.
:09:14. > :09:17.President Assad was clear, he said he wanted to recover the whole of
:09:18. > :09:22.Syria but that does not sound like a man about to lay down arms. There's
:09:23. > :09:26.the added confusion that this ceasefire does not apply to all the
:09:27. > :09:30.fighting in Syria. If there are seven days of calm, potentially we
:09:31. > :09:33.could see the United States and Russia coordinating military attacks
:09:34. > :09:38.against the so-called Islamic State group and the other faction with
:09:39. > :09:42.links to Al-Qaeda. Tonight it's too early to assess whether its holding.
:09:43. > :09:47.There's clearly some violence still taking place but people were
:09:48. > :09:51.expecting that. I think the question will come, what does this sustained
:09:52. > :09:55.over the next few days? They were likely to be a reduction of
:09:56. > :09:59.violence, yes, some humanitarian aid going in, yes, the beginning of the
:10:00. > :10:02.end of the conflict? Very, very unlikely. OK, James, thank you very
:10:03. > :10:04.much. David Cameron is to leave
:10:05. > :10:07.the House of Commons. His decision to resign as an MP
:10:08. > :10:09.comes barely two months after he stood down as Prime Minister
:10:10. > :10:12.following his defeat At the time he said he'd
:10:13. > :10:15.continue as a backbench MP. But he's now concerned

:10:37. > :10:42.a backseat driver and make life With modern politics,
:10:43. > :10:48.the circumstances of my resignation, it is pretty possible to be a proper
:10:49. > :10:52.backbench MP as a former Prime I think everything you do will
:10:53. > :10:57.become a big distraction and a big diversion from what the government
:10:58. > :11:02.needs to do for our country. No Tory leader had ever posed
:11:03. > :11:06.with huskies before but no Tory leader had ever put such a premium

:11:14. > :11:19.some came to regret. Being a Prime Minister of coalition
:11:20. > :11:22.is quite different to being a Prime Minister of a single party
:11:23. > :11:25.government because it requires a lot It requires an ability to persuade
:11:26. > :11:30.people of your point of view and to listen to other people
:11:31. > :11:33.who don't share your point of view and I think he did all of those

:12:28. > :12:30.because he doesn't agree with the new boss, but there's
:12:31. > :12:33.a real danger they admit anything he says could drive a wedge
:12:34. > :12:35.and David Cameron himself Obviously I'm going to have my own
:12:36. > :12:41.views about different issues. People would know that and that's
:12:42. > :12:43.really the point. As a former Prime Minister,
:12:44. > :12:47.it is very difficult I think to sit as a backbencher and not be
:12:48. > :12:49.an enormous diversion and distraction from
:12:50. > :12:52.the government is doing. He was sometimes accused
:12:53. > :12:55.of believing his own hype. Nothing is really impossible
:12:56. > :12:59.if you put your mind to it. After all, as I once said,
:13:00. > :13:04.I was the future once. Such recent history feels already
:13:05. > :13:11.so much in the past. We can talk to our political
:13:12. > :13:19.editor Laura Kuenssberg. Money talks about diversions and
:13:20. > :13:23.distractions, is that because he foresaw agreements and disagreements
:13:24. > :13:29.coming up the Theresa May's government? I think there's an
:13:30. > :13:32.element of that and as part of his final U-turn. Theresa May 's
:13:33. > :13:36.government has looked more different and more of a departure from David
:13:37. > :13:42.Cameron 's previous administration than many Tories expected. She was
:13:43. > :13:45.ruthless and clearing out his people and she's been absolutely unafraid
:13:46. > :13:49.of distancing herself from him, junking some of his ideas, and I
:13:50. > :13:53.think, bluntly, it would have been hard for David Cameron to support
:13:54. > :13:57.wholeheartedly everywhere proposal she was putting forward, every idea
:13:58. > :14:01.that she had. Some people in this particular circle are pretty cross
:14:02. > :14:05.about the way the new administration has behaved but they deny that David
:14:06. > :14:08.Cameron has gone off in a stroppy here, because he does not agree with
:14:09. > :14:14.what she's been getting up to and I think, as with any big decision in
:14:15. > :14:19.life, a mixture of motivations. Being a form anything, former Prime
:14:20. > :14:24.Minister, leader, former minister, is pretty difficult around here. Any
:14:25. > :14:26.raised eyebrow, any absence from the crucial vote could have been
:14:27. > :14:30.interpreted or misinterpreted in a way that might have made life very
:14:31. > :14:34.difficult for Theresa May and I think David Cameron genuinely did
:14:35. > :14:38.not want that to happen. At the end of the day, though, politicians are
:14:39. > :14:42.an ambitious breed. If you have a top job and it slips away, maybe the

:20:23. > :20:25.pneumonia, even though the diagnosis had come days earlier,
:20:26. > :20:29.and on social media even friends have been critical.
:20:30. > :20:31.This is David Axelrod, who was Barack Obama's
:20:32. > :20:46.And today the campaign admitted to being at fault.
:20:47. > :20:49.It took us a bit to get that information together
:20:50. > :20:53.In retrospect, I think we should have provided more
:20:54. > :20:58.And so a new twist in the race for the White House.
:20:59. > :21:03.Health is now a major issue, and though it may sound trivial
:21:04. > :21:06.to talk about the lack of openness with which her illness
:21:07. > :21:08.was communicated, it feeds into a narrative.
:21:09. > :21:11.Whether it be about her e-mail server, or money raised
:21:12. > :21:12.by the Clinton foundation, there's a sense there
:21:13. > :21:15.is a lack of transparency, and Hillary Clinton can't afford
:21:16. > :21:21.to give voters new reasons to doubt her.
:21:22. > :21:24.But that she did at the weekend, when she described millions
:21:25. > :21:28.You could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call
:21:29. > :21:39.Well, Hillary Clinton lives a sequestered life behind gates
:21:40. > :21:45.She mocks and demeans hard-working Americans,
:21:46. > :21:48.who only want their own families to enjoy a fraction of the security
:21:49. > :21:55.In this seesawing battle, it is Donald Trump's campaign
:21:56. > :21:58.which seems to be in rude health, while Hillary Clinton's

:22:14. > :22:17.meant to be going to Las Vegas, and in two weeks you have the first
:22:18. > :22:21.presidential debate which is seen as crucial to both of the candidates.
:22:22. > :22:26.Hillary Clinton has tweeted, thanks to everyone who has reached out with
:22:27. > :22:30.the well wishes, I'm feeling fine and getting better. But a lot of
:22:31. > :22:35.people on social media are saying if you cannot cope with a memorial
:22:36. > :22:41.service, how will you manage the pressures of the White House? That
:22:42. > :22:43.may not be fair, but who said politics was fair?
:22:44. > :22:45.Thank you for the latest on the campaign.

:23:00. > :23:03.Police don't believe the woman was involved in the attack but may
:23:04. > :23:06.They think the strap was left by Stephen Lawrence's attackers
:23:07. > :23:11.and might have been part of an improvised weapon.
:23:12. > :23:15.The general-secretary of the TUC, Frances O'Grady, has condemned
:23:16. > :23:18.what she called greedy companies which treat workers like animals.
:23:19. > :23:21.Speaking at their annual conference in Brighton, she singled out
:23:22. > :23:23.employers who declared their workforce to be self-employed
:23:24. > :23:31.Our industry correspondent John Moylan reports from Brighton.
:23:32. > :23:34.Jonathan is a courier for a delivery firm.
:23:35. > :23:37.Rain or shine, he works ten hours a day.
:23:38. > :23:42.But because he's self-employed, he misses out on some workers'
:23:43. > :23:47.rights, so when he was off sick recently he didn't get paid.
:23:48. > :23:49.It is branded to me as flexibility but what it really means
:23:50. > :24:00.I have to save up for when I'm ill or when I'm on holiday.
:24:01. > :24:02.It simply means that I'm on my own and my company
:24:03. > :24:08.The growth of insecure work is a new front
:24:09. > :24:12.A long campaign at Sports Direct forced the company to end zero hours

:24:15. > :24:17.Hermes is in the spotlight amid claims its couriers make less
:24:18. > :24:25.It is now facing a possible inquiry into its working practices.
:24:26. > :24:28.So, today at Congress, the head of the TUC had this
:24:29. > :24:32.Any greedy business that treats its workers like
:24:33. > :24:45.If you run a big brand with a dirty little secret, a warehouse
:24:46. > :24:47.where people don't even get paid the minimum wage,
:24:48. > :24:49.a fleet of couriers who are slaves to the app,
:24:50. > :24:54.We are on our way, delegates, we are coming for them.
:24:55. > :24:58.But for some, casual work isn't a problem.
:24:59. > :25:02.Steve Rowe is a driver with taxi firm Uber.
:25:03. > :25:04.He likes being self-employed and is relaxed about not
:25:05. > :25:16.I want to be independent, I want to be able to drive
:25:17. > :25:19.when I want to drive, I want to be able to work
:25:20. > :25:22.on my projects when I want to work on my projects.
:25:23. > :25:24.And with the Uber platform, I have total flexibility.
:25:25. > :25:26.Self-employment is growing, as is the number of people who say
:25:27. > :25:29.they are on zero hours contracts, so unions here know that protecting
:25:30. > :25:31.workers in this so-called gig economy, where people juggle
:25:32. > :25:33.a number of insecure jobs, well that's becoming
:25:34. > :25:45.It's been another successful day for Britain's Paralympians in Rio.
:25:46. > :25:48.Will Bayley overcame his disappointment in 2012 and a crowd
:25:49. > :25:51.backing his Brazilian opponent today to win gold in the table tennis.
:25:52. > :25:54.While Aled Davis set a record in his shot put category.
:25:55. > :26:02.Our sports correspondent Andy Swiss reports.
:26:03. > :26:10.If you have ever wondered what being Paralympic champion means, here is
:26:11. > :26:14.the answer. Will Bayley was born with a condition that restricts the
:26:15. > :26:18.movement of his limbs, but when he was seven his grandmother bought him
:26:19. > :26:23.a table tennis table and this is where it has let him. He was up
:26:24. > :26:29.against Brazil's Israel Stroh and most of the crowd, but after silver
:26:30. > :26:35.in London, it was gold. And what a celebration. His clambering onto the
:26:36. > :26:44.table earned him a yellow card, not that he seemed to mind. He later
:26:45. > :26:48.told me it was the fulfilment of a lifelong dream. I have given
:26:49. > :26:53.everything to try and win the gold medal and I mean everything. I have
:26:54. > :26:58.had blisters on my feet for years and years, going to bed thinking I'm
:26:59. > :27:02.never going to achieve my dreams. I can live my life knowing I have done
:27:03. > :27:06.something which I thought could never happen. Meanwhile a sweltering
:27:07. > :27:14.day proved the sweetest for Aled Davies. One of the stars of 2012
:27:15. > :27:18.with a new Paralympic record in the shot put and another gold medal for
:27:19. > :27:23.Britain's expanding gold collection. Finished off by the flashing blades
:27:24. > :27:29.of Richard Whitehead as he charged the 200 metres. Behind him Dave
:27:30. > :27:33.Henderson, just five years after losing his legs in an explosion in
:27:34. > :27:40.Afghanistan, barely believable bronze medal. Another of yesterday's
:27:41. > :27:44.champions says in this British team, success is inspiring success. I
:27:45. > :27:48.remember on Friday night coming back from my event and there is a slow
:27:49. > :27:52.motion of Jonnie Peacock coming through the line, he has won, and
:27:53. > :27:57.Richard Whitehead and a few others added to this thing, the swimmers
:27:58. > :28:05.are it as well, and it leads to more and more and you want to be part of
:28:06. > :28:13.that club. Hoping to join that club, Abby Kane only turned 13 last month,
:28:14. > :28:18.but she reached her final. She had to settle for sixth place but it was
:28:19. > :28:23.a personal best and some debut. Also in the swimming pool, Ellie Simmonds
:28:24. > :28:28.broke the Paralympic record on her way to the final to the individual
:28:29. > :28:35.medley. After gold in London, could it be a repeat in Rio?
:28:36. > :28:40.Yes, Ellie Simmonds goes for gold at around 20 to midnight your time. She
:28:41. > :28:46.will star as the favourite but let's look at the medal table as things
:28:47. > :28:51.stand. Great Britain in second place behind China, with 25 gold medals,
:28:52. > :28:53.and with six days still remaining here, they will be expecting plenty
:28:54. > :28:56.more to come. One of the BBC's most successful
:28:57. > :28:58.and popular programmes the Great British Bake Off
:28:59. > :29:02.is to move to Channel 4. The independent company
:29:03. > :29:04.which makes the programme, signed a three-year deal
:29:05. > :29:16.with Channel 4. Love Productions had told staff
:29:17. > :29:18.they'd been unable to reach But the BBC said there were limits
:29:19. > :29:23.to what it could pay and it had made a very strong offer
:29:24. > :29:25.to keep the programme. Our correspondent David Sillito
:29:26. > :29:26.reports. The winner of the 2015
:29:27. > :29:31.Great British Bake Off is... A baking competition that's
:29:32. > :29:36.beaten allcomers. 15 million people watched Nadiya win
:29:37. > :29:56.last year's Bake Off but it's now It's a pretty bad day for the BBC.
:29:57. > :30:00.The BBC have nurtured a show that I don't think any other broadcaster
:30:01. > :30:04.would have done and turned it into this massive hit.
:30:05. > :30:08.The Bake Off negotiations have been going on for about a year now
:30:09. > :30:11.The BBC's offer was rejected and Love Productions went down
:30:12. > :30:14.the road and signed a three-year deal with Channel 4.
:30:15. > :30:22.In a statement this evening, they said:
:30:23. > :30:25.the first big programme the BBC has lost recently.
:30:26. > :30:34.Channel 4 took over Formula One and The Voice has gone to ITV.
:30:35. > :30:36.But does it matter to viewers?
:30:37. > :30:41.One former Bake Off winner feels so long as it's the same show,
:30:42. > :30:46.I did a poll on my Facebook and other social media
:30:47. > :30:52.and lots of people were really outraged that it's moving.
:30:53. > :30:55.My gut feeling was a bit of a shock to begin with.
:30:56. > :31:01.And now, I've got my head round it I'm a little bit calmer.
:31:02. > :31:03.Channel 4 will begin with a celebrity Bake Off
:31:04. > :31:09.The presenters, they've only just been told.
:31:10. > :31:11.Negotiations are yet to begin, but when this year's champion
:31:12. > :31:14.is finally revealed, it really will be a showstopper
:31:15. > :31:37.Tonight is a serious ceasefire begins, an interview with the
:31:38. > :31:43.spokesman with a jihadi group, still a target for Russian warplanes. And
:31:44. > :31:46.how did the BBC managed to lose the Great British Bake Off to Channel 4?
