Labour sets out its strategy for negotiating Britain's exit | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
It leaves open the possibility of going back to the negotiating | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
table, if the Brexit deal is rejected by Parliament. | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
And in a major policy move the party makes a stand on the rights of EU | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
On day one of a Labour Government, we will immediately guarantee that | :00:23. | :00:34. | |
all EU nationals currently living in the UK will see no change in their | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
legal status as a result of Brexit. Day one - big commitment. | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
But Theresa May, campaigning in the traditional Labour | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
heartland of South Wales, said there was only one option | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
We want to get votes and support here in Wales, because that will | :00:48. | :00:58. | |
strengthen my hand in the Brexit negotiations. | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
We'll be reporting on the day's campaigning and we'll be exploring | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
the policy initiatives announced by Labour. | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
A special report from Lebanon on the illegal trade in human organs | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
and the Syrian refugees who are the main victims. | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
In Berlin Ivanka Trump takes to the international stage | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
and defends her father's record on upholding women's rights. | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
A decade after the disappearance of Madeleine McCann police say | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
there are still significant avenues of investigation. | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
And we talk to British fighter Anthony Joshua ahead of one | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
of the biggest boxing bouts of recent years this weekend. | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
In Sportsday on BBC News: Can Chelsea put seven points between | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
them and the rest in the Premier League? A win at Stamford Bridge | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
over Southampton tonight would do it. | :01:50. | :02:11. | |
Labour has taken steps today to spell out its approach | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
to the Brexit process if it wins the election. | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
The Shadow Brexit Secretary Sir Keir Starmer | :02:18. | :02:18. | |
It would retain the option of remaining in the EU Customs Union | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
And EU nationals would still be allowed to move to the UK | :02:25. | :02:32. | |
It's being presented as a significant clarification | :02:33. | :02:45. | |
of Labour's policy, as our deputy political editor | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
This is where the election's being decided, not in political | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
meetings, but on the streets, in the homes and in | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
We're choosing a path for Britain after Brexit, | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
and on this nation-dividing issue, Labour's taking a gamble that | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
will win some voters and maybe lose a lot of others. | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
Here in Barking, in a lot of places where people voted Labour and then | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
Today Labour's out to show it's more pro-Europe, | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
more open to compromise than Theresa May's | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
EU nationals here would keep their rights, no ifs, no buts. | :03:18. | :03:24. | |
On day one of a Labour Government, we will immediately guarantee | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
that all EU nationals, currently living in the UK, | :03:28. | :03:35. | |
will see no change in their legal status as a result of Brexit. | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
After Brexit, old rights of free movement across the UK | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
border had to change, but then, more clarity | :03:43. | :03:44. | |
on Labour policy - get a job offer he told me | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
We must have immigration that works for our communities | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
That means that there has to be movement of people to come | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
How that's managed will have to be resolved. | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
But the last thing we want is for our businesses to go bankrupt. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
Then he poured cold water on the leavers' dream | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
of using new freedoms outside the customs union to conquer | :04:12. | :04:13. | |
I think it's worth keeping the customs union option | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
on the table and seeing where we are in two years. | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
But we have to focus on the EU trade agreement. | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
That's 44% of our trade and make sure that is our priority. | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
And not hypothetical free trade deals elsewhere in the world? | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
The idea of hypothetical free trade agreements in April 2019 | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
compensating for losing the EU is something nobody's contemplating. | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
That's why we have to concentrate on the EU trade agreement. | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
Until now, Labour and the Tories have been sounding more alike over | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
Brexit than either side has been prepared to admit. | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
Now Labour is showing more of its pro-European colours. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
The party needs to motivate its activists and loyal supporters. | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
Around here and in places like this, it's a gamble. | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
For many people, Europe is a gut issue. | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
There's enough in this small island that otherwise we're going - | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
it's going to be like a ship, we're going to sink. | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
No need to let the Europeans in to do those jobs? | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
All the foreigners and other people coming in they're taking them. | :05:16. | :05:26. | |
Labour says if you're a European and you've got | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
As long as they've got a job to come to. | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
As long as that is documented and it's not just a slip in, | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
then yeah, I have no problem with that. | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
Now it's about which side can convince the voters. | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
What do the others make of Labour policy? | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
This is the first time that we've heard this clarity on free movement. | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
Unfortunately for both Jeremy Corbyn and Keir Starmer, | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
many on the Labour frontbench don't agree with him. | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
You've got to feel sorry for him in one sense. | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
He's trying to put a united front on a party, which is absolutely | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
split down the middle on this issue as on so many others. | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
It amounts to something which is too little, | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
I'm still not clear whether Labour believes we should be in or out | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
They say they now don't agree with the Government's | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
negotiating strategy, yet they fatefully voted for it | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
Labour's struggle to sell a clear policy line. | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
But now it's campaign time and the task is to get people | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
to like what's on offer, assuming they can get | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
Theresa May has taken her Conservative campaign | :06:32. | :06:41. | |
to the heart of south Wales one of Labour's traditional | :06:42. | :06:43. | |
strongholds and she's urged voters to drop what she calls | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
The first minister of Wales Carwyn Jones admitted today that | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
Labour had a mountain to climb before polling day | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
and he urged the party leader Jeremy Corbyn to produce a Labour | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
manifesto with the widest possible appeal. | :07:01. | :07:01. | |
Our political editor Laura Kuenssberg reports. | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
If the Tories want headlines about a new Iron Lady... | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
They're not very subtle about it. Theresa May came to inspect the | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
steam and sparks in Newport. Must be doing something | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
right she joked. She needs to to achieve a big if, | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
turn Wales into Tory territory. It's audacious to pop up in rock | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
solid Labour land at the She was only with activists, | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
with friends, but her appeal is to Give me a mandate | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
to speak for Britain. Give me a mandate to fight | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
for Britain and give me a mandate to She would not be drawn, | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
again, on whether she'll How far are you willing | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
to go to grab seats in parts of the country | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
that, until now, have So, I will be out and about around | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
the country in all sorts of areas, all parts of the country, | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
taking this message - a vote for me and for the local | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
Conservative candidate is a vote to strengthen our hand | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
in the Brexit negotiations. Taking places like Porthcawl | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
would mean taking lifelong Labour voters, like Brian and Ira | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
who have almost decided to do it. Because The Valleys are Labour. | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
Wales, Labour's strong hold. So, I don't know whether to Vote | :08:24. | :08:33. | |
Labour or Conservative this time. I'm a typical Labour | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
voter, but whether I'll be voting Labour this year, | :08:41. | :08:49. | |
because I've got no confidence But there again, I don't | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
think I'll be voting I've put the same effort | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
and thought in the way I Will you tell me how | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
you voted last time. I voted Labour last time. What about | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
father and son, the Edwards? He's been Labour all his life. I think he | :09:07. | :09:16. | |
swung now to Theresa May now. Definitely. She's absolutely | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
wonderful. Mr Corbyn, bye-bye. Here, Labour's in charge in Cardiff. But | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
even their leader at mitts Jeremy Corbyn has some -- admits Jeremy | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
Corbyn has some way to go. To prove himself as a leader and as somebody | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
who could be Labour's candidate for Prime Minister. We have some weeks | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
to go before the poll itself. But that is the challenge. Even from the | :09:39. | :09:45. | |
start of their campaign, Plaid Cymru won't hesitate to stir up old | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
memories. If people are considering voting Conservative, then I would | :09:49. | :09:50. | |
ask them to remember the past, the Tories have been no friends to | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
Wales. We're not rolling over for any Tory to take our seat. So we are | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
here. We're going to be out in force. It's early days, but any day | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
on the campaign trail is precious. Leaders only turn up to places where | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
they think they're in the game. With possible gains in Wales and in | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
Scotland too, Theresa May's not just contemplating a Tory majority, but | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
hoping to make true her claim there are no Tory no-go areas. Brexit | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
might have redrawn the map, but she wants to colour it blue. Yet as she | :10:25. | :10:34. | |
swept away, reminders for Theresa May, it won't be easy. Here or | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
anywhere else, the Tories can't be sure they'll always be welcomement | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
-- welcome. Our political editor | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Laura Kuenssberg is here. On a key issue like Brexit, are we | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
seeing, between remember and the Conservatives at least, a much | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
greater distinction in this policy area? That's what Labour hoped to | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
achieve today. The Tories know. It's clear talking to voters in that area | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
of South Wales today, that the Tories are competitive in parts of | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
the country like that. One of the reasons for that is because of | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
Brexit, because this has been such a conundrum for Labour. Remember, most | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
of their MPs were on the Remain side. Their leader, lukewarm about | :11:13. | :11:19. | |
the whole thing. Millions of their voters wanted out. What they have to | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
do at the start of the campaign is try to solve that headache. Today | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
they went some way towards doing that. There was a very clear | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
guarantee for EU nationals who've come to live in this country. They | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
were clearer on freedom of movement. But one of the problems I think they | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
still have is it is a deliberate part of their approach to leave some | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
options on the table. That may be sensible. That may well appeal to | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
lots and lots of voters, but by leaving some options on the table, | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
like potentially some form of continued membership of the single | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
market in one form or other, that still leaves them open to | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
accusations from their political rivals that they're somehow kind of | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
fudging the issue, they somehow aren't clear and to boot, that they | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
don't quite agree amongst themselves. So I think they've got | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
some distance down to provide a dividing line between the Labour and | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
Tea Party on their -- Tory party on their approach on Brexit. It is | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
worth noting today, it's been Labour that's the party that's putting | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
policy and putting ideas forward at this part of the campaign with the | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
Tories for now, content to hang back and let Labour, to some extent, try | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
to contend with areas that are politically difficult for them. But | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
the Tories know also, that can't last. At some point they're going to | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
have put some meat on the bones. Laura, thanks very much. | :12:41. | :12:44. | |

The Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron has sought | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
to clarify his attitude to gay sex following claims that he'd | :13:02. | :13:03. | |
Mr Farron, a practising Christian, said today that he did not | :13:04. | :13:12. | |
believe that gay sex was a sin, and he didn't want his religious | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
beliefs to be a talking point during the election campaign. | :13:16. | :13:17. | |
He spoke to our political correspondent Eleanor Garnier. | :13:18. | :13:19. | |
It's fair to say, I've answered the question. | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
It's a subject he's been asked about again... | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
You won't say whether you think having gay sex is a sin. | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
Does the honourable member think that being gay is a sin? | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
They say you didn't answer when they asked | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
Until today, the Lib Dem leader, a committed Christian, | :13:39. | :13:49. | |
has refused to answer this question: I don't believe gay sex is a sin. | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
I take the view that as a political leader, though, | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
my job is not to pontificate on theological matters. | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
This has become a talking point, an issue. | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
In that case, if people have got the wrong opinion of what I think | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
about on these issues, that's something it's | :14:06. | :14:08. | |
It's taken him almost two years, since becoming | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
the leader of the Lib Dems, to clarify his position. | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
But the pressure's increased since the election was called. | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
So what's changed in the last 48 hours that you are now able to say | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
you don't think gay sex is a sin, yet for the last two years, | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
you have very blatantly swerved the question? | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
I'm quite careful about how I talk about my faith. | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
So, you were either misleading people before or you're | :14:35. | :14:43. | |
misleading people now, which is it? | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
So the answer to that is that I was asked the question early on, | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
and I didn't want to get into a series of questions unpicking | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
Isn't it just your Christian belief and you didn't want to admit it? | :14:54. | :15:00. | |
What I want is to make sure that we deal with something | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
It's a sense of understanding, you know, the question | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
I don't think people want political party leaders telling them | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
Mr Farron insisted the Lib Dems had undoubtedly the best record on gay | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
But it's clear the issue and the questions around it have | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
troubled him personally and politically too. | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
Eleanor Garnier, BBC News, Westminster. | :15:32. | :15:39. | |
The Middle East is now considered the global hub | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
for the trafficking of human organs, according to aid agencies. | :15:43. | :15:44. | |
The flow of refugees from Syria into neighbouring countries has | :15:45. | :15:46. | |
created new opportunities to exploit deperate and vulnerable people. | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
Traffickers linked to the illegal trade in human organs | :15:52. | :15:53. | |
are increasingly active throughout the region, | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
so our correspondent, Alex Forsyth, went to investigate | :15:59. | :16:00. | |
A warning that her report contains some distressing images. | :16:01. | :16:13. | |
Shut away in the back room of a make-shift coffee shop, | :16:14. | :16:15. | |
TRANSLATION: I am constantly taking painkillers. | :16:16. | :16:34. | |
He's a refugee who fled Syria when his brothers | :16:35. | :16:43. | |
At 17, he supports his mother and five sisters. | :16:44. | :16:51. | |
Desperate for money, he sought a dealer in human organs. | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
TRANSLATION: I met him at night, he blindfolded me | :16:57. | :16:58. | |
I got paid ?6,500, I've already spent most of the money paying | :16:59. | :17:07. | |
In Lebanon, Syrian refugees face heavy work restrictions, | :17:08. | :17:14. | |
For some, like this man, there's opportunity in the poverty. | :17:15. | :17:25. | |
He arranges organ sales and agreed to talk to us | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
TRANSLATION: I exploit people, that's what I do. | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
Some of my clients would have died anyway, just like this boy. | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
I'm exploiting him, but he's benefitting. | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
I know what I'm doing is illegal, but I'm helping people. | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
Working on commission, he's a middle man, brazenly armed. | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
He finds refugees and takes them to clinics. | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
In the past three years, he's organised around 30 kidney sales. | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
TRANSLATION: I was once asked to get an eye, | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
and I found a client who was willing to sell his eye. | :18:08. | :18:09. | |
I don't really care if the client dies as long as I got what I wanted. | :18:10. | :18:18. | |
That's not my problem what happens next, as long | :18:19. | :18:20. | |
Organs are hard to transport, but we're told they can be exported | :18:21. | :18:29. | |
All refugees are flown to nearby countries, | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
like Egypt, on fake papers to have surgery there. | :18:35. | :18:36. | |
The Middle East is becoming a hotspot in | :18:37. | :18:38. | |
According to some experts, who say the influx of refugees | :18:39. | :18:50. | |
willing to go to extreme lengths to get money is providing | :18:51. | :18:53. | |
a new market for brokers looking for body parts to buy, | :18:54. | :18:56. | |

In Lebanon, lawful transplants are governed by strict rules, | :19:05. | :19:06. | |
but despite efforts there's a lack of available organs. | :19:07. | :19:08. | |
Religious and cultural sensitivity around donating fuels the shortage. | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
But legitimate surgeons warn there's untold danger in illegal operations. | :19:11. | :19:21. | |
Foreigners who travelled and they obtained organs, | :19:22. | :19:22. | |
They came with bad organs, without being masked, | :19:23. | :19:30. | |
they acquired infections, tuberculosis, HIV and so | :19:31. | :19:32. | |
on because those operations to start with were done | :19:33. | :19:35. | |

I didn't want to do this, but I'm desperate. | :19:46. | :19:47. | |
Authorities insist cases like this are rare and they're taking action. | :19:48. | :19:56. | |
The true scale simply isn't known, but the consequences of choices | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
driven by desperation are all too clear. | :20:00. | :20:01. | |
Government borrowing has fallen to its lowest | :20:02. | :20:11. | |
The Office for National Statistics says the figure - | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
which excludes the amount borrowed by publicly-owned banks - | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
was ?52 billion in the year to March, which is ?20 billion lower | :20:22. | :20:24. | |

The losses will mainly affect sites in York and Newcastle. | :20:39. | :20:40. | |
The company said a "rapidly-changing external environment" had | :20:41. | :20:42. | |
led to the decision, but denied it was linked to Brexit. | :20:43. | :20:51. | |
President Trump has indicated he's willing to delay trying to secure | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
federal funds to build his so-called 'Great Wall' along part | :20:55. | :20:56. | |
The President has until the end of the week to agree federal | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
spending plans with Congress or risk marking his 100th day in office | :21:02. | :21:03. | |

REPORTER: Mr President, are you going to insist | :21:10. | :21:11. | |
Donald Trump made his fortune as a builder, now the President | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
is staking a huge amount of political capital on the most | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
controversial construction project of his life. | :21:25. | :21:26. | |
A 2,000 mile long wall to separate the US from its | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
No-one can say it's come out of the blue. | :21:30. | :21:36. | |
It was almost his campaign theme tune. | :21:37. | :21:38. | |
We're going to do the wall and, by the way, who's going | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
But the Mexicans have been blunt in their response. | :21:42. | :21:56. | |
We're not paying a peso towards it, something the Economy Minister spelt | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
If they decide to do it, it's in their own sovereign right. | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
The only thing that is clear is that there is no way Mexico | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
So Donald Trump, initially at least, will have to rely | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
And though there's growing acceptance that's not | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
going to happen right now, he's still talking tough. | :22:15. | :22:16. | |
We're doing plans, we're doing specifications. | :22:17. | :22:27. | |
But the government runs out of money this Friday and could face another | :22:28. | :22:38. | |
and could face another shut down, like it did four years ago, | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
off and Federal buildings and monuments closed. | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
Democrats will agree to an emergency funding package, | :22:45. | :22:46. | |
but only if the White House removes the proposed expenditure | :22:47. | :22:48. | |
Although Republicans do have a majority in the Senate, | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
it's slim and to get this measure passed, | :22:53. | :22:54. | |
you need what's called a supermajority, 60 votes, | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
President Trump, approaching his 100th day in office, has | :22:57. | :23:04. | |
faced a stark choice - either a government shut down | :23:05. | :23:06. | |
Because in Democratic senators, the President has come | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
across a rock solid wall which there is no way round. | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
It's been a harsh lesson in the differences between | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
the ease of campaigning and the struggles of governing. | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
It's left Democrats savouring another victory. | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
It's really good news that the President seems to be | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
taking the wall off the table in the negotiations we're having | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
The White House unveiled a new website today to celebrate | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
It's been high energy and high-tempo. | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
A raft of executive orders and growing economic confidence, | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
but on his three signature policies - the travel ban, health reform | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
and now the border wall, Donald Trump hasn't succeeded | :23:56. | :23:57. | |
President Trump's daughter, Ivanka, has been meeting | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, in Berlin | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
on her first international trip since being given an official | :24:06. | :24:07. | |
position in the Trump administration. | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
She's recognised as an influential adviser to her father, | :24:13. | :24:14. | |
but there's been growing criticism in the US about the nature | :24:15. | :24:16. | |

The First Daughter, rubbing shoulders with a Chancellor, | :24:29. | :24:30. | |
Though, almost immediately, Ivanka Trump found herself | :24:31. | :24:39. | |
The delegates here weren't impressed. | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
He's been a tremendous champion of supporting families, | :24:45. | :24:46. | |
You hear the reaction from the audience, so I need to... | :24:47. | :24:57. | |
Still, Donald Trump's special adviser persisted. | :24:58. | :24:59. | |
As a daughter, I can speak on a very personal level, | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
knowing that he encouraged me and enabled me to thrive. | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
I grew up in a house where there was no barriers | :25:08. | :25:10. | |
And the First Daughter has gone on to make powerful friends. | :25:11. | :25:17. | |
She's accompanied her father to talks with the leaders | :25:18. | :25:19. | |
Her first solo overseas trip was at the direct invitation | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
...empowering women, and charming one in particular. | :25:26. | :25:39. | |
Berlin wants, needs, stronger ties to the Trump administration. | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
TRANSLATION: It's the strategy of dialogue, that's | :25:45. | :25:46. | |
You can reach Trump through his daughter. | :25:47. | :25:54. | |
Every woman should do things by her own, and by her own status | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
and by her own positions, and not because of her | :25:59. | :26:00. | |
What you're seeing here may well mark a profound shift | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
in the way that Germany, Europe, does business | :26:06. | :26:07. | |
Ivanka Trump wields significant influence with her father. | :26:08. | :26:14. | |
The relationship that Angela Merkel and other leaders strike | :26:15. | :26:17. | |
with the First Daughter will be closely scrutinised on both | :26:18. | :26:19. | |
Expect to see more of the First Daughter of the international stage. | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
In the age of Trump, it seems, family comes first. | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
The United States has expressed deep concern about Turkish air raids | :26:27. | :26:40. | |
against Kurdish fighters in Syria and Iraq. | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
Turkey said it was targeting groups linked to the banned PKK and said it | :26:47. | :26:50. | |

British detectives investigating the disappearance | :27:14. | :27:20. | |
of Madeleine McCann, a decade ago, say they are still | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
pursuing at least one "significant line of inquiry." | :27:25. | :27:29. | |
A senior officer described it as a critical element | :27:30. | :27:31. | |
with the potential to explain what happened to the three-year-old | :27:32. | :27:38. | |
when she disappeared in the Algarve in early May 2007 | :27:39. | :27:40. | |
Our home affairs correspondent, Tom Symonds, has the story. | :27:41. | :27:44. | |
Ten years, no answers. A desperate search with the media following | :27:45. | :27:52. | |
every step. What happened here, where is Madeleine McCann? This is | :27:53. | :27:59. | |
still a missing persons inquiry, despite 2014's extensive police | :28:00. | :28:04. | |
searches in Portugal, there is no definitive Ed she is dead. -- | :28:05. | :28:10. | |
definitive evidence she is dead. For six years, with government | :28:11. | :28:14. | |
money, the Metropolitan Police have Tonight, Scotland Yard said it | :28:15. | :28:16. | |
still had critical leads to follow. I know we have a significant line | :28:17. | :28:20. | |
of inquiry which is worth pursuing and, because it's worth pursuing, | :28:21. | :28:23. | |
it could provide an answer. But until we've gone through it, | :28:24. | :28:25. | |
I won't know whether we're And that's all the | :28:26. | :28:28. | |
police are saying. This investigation was once pursued | :28:29. | :28:32. | |
by up to 30 officers, now there are just four on the case | :28:33. | :28:34. | |
and a handful of leads. But while there is still something | :28:35. | :28:40. | |
to investigate, there is still hope. In the last decade suspects | :28:41. | :28:43. | |
have been discounted, including a man seen carrying | :28:44. | :28:47. | |
a child that night. Madeleine's face has become | :28:48. | :28:53. | |
known across the world, endless possible sightings have | :28:54. | :28:55. | |
been followrd up. The police say while there | :28:56. | :29:01. | |
are leads, they will continue. I so wish I could say | :29:02. | :29:03. | |
we could definitely solve it, but a small number of cases, | :29:04. | :29:06. | |
sadly, don't get solved. What I've always said on this case, | :29:07. | :29:08. | |
and I've said it to Kate and Gerry as well, we will do everything | :29:09. | :29:12. | |
reasonably possible to try Madeleine's parents have described | :29:13. | :29:14. | |
the ten year anniversary as a "horrible marker | :29:15. | :29:21. | |

promising never to give up. "There have been many challenges | :29:24. | :29:26. | |

encouragement and postivity we've experienced from the quiet majority | :29:30. | :29:32. | |
has undoubtedly sustained us and maintained our faith | :29:33. | :29:34. | |
in human goodness." This is how Madeleine might have | :29:35. | :29:40. | |

of becoming the sports biggest star. And, having granted us access | :30:22. | :30:24. | |
to his training camp... ..he told me just what it takes | :30:25. | :30:27. | |
to become a champion. You know, I've dislocated shoulders | :30:28. | :30:32. | |
and stuff in the gym, The coaches try to reveal your | :30:33. | :30:36. | |
potential and then it becomes a bit of an ordeal because they start | :30:37. | :30:45. | |
pushing you to places that Especially with the type | :30:46. | :30:48. | |
of fight we're in as well. Joshua has come a long way | :30:49. | :30:56. | |
in a short space of time. London 2012 Olympic champion, | :30:57. | :30:59. | |

in excess of ?10 million I'm in the same flat that I've | :31:01. | :31:03. | |
been in since in 2011. Where we grew up, everyone | :31:04. | :31:09. | |
was about making money, when we were young, | :31:10. | :31:13. | |
but it was about being low-key. Probably didn't want | :31:14. | :31:15. | |
to get your house burgled, But life hasn't always | :31:16. | :31:19. | |
been trouble-free. Joshua's brushes with the law | :31:20. | :31:24. | |
as a teenager, growing up in a tough part of London, | :31:25. | :31:26. | |
are portrayed in a new advertising campaign which charts | :31:27. | :31:29. | |
his rise to the top. What people can relate to is life, | :31:30. | :31:31. | |
journeys and what people go through. Everyone goes through different | :31:32. | :31:35. | |
struggles, so I'm just showing mine and it can connect to a certain | :31:36. | :31:38. | |
group of people, and it This is the kind of preparation | :31:39. | :31:41. | |
and dedication that's taken Anthony Joshua to the brink | :31:42. | :31:48. | |
of sporting superstardom and he knows that if he can now win | :31:49. | :31:51. | |
the biggest fight of his career, he'll go to a whole | :31:52. | :31:54. | |
new level altogether. High in the Austrian mountains, | :31:55. | :31:56. | |

the trash talk and the brawls that have frequently brought | :32:29. | :32:31. | |
boxing into disrepute. It's needed now and again, | :32:32. | :32:35. | |
but it's got to be real because I don't take boxing | :32:36. | :32:38. | |
as an act. This isn't like an act for me, | :32:39. | :32:40. | |
this is a way of expressing myself Joshua's wasted little time | :32:41. | :32:43. | |
