Turmoil at the White House, as another senior official is sacked.

:00:00.:00:10.

Anthony Scaramucci is no longer Communications Director,

:00:11.:00:12.

It follows the appointment by President Trump of a new Chief

:00:13.:00:20.

of Staff, John Kelly, to bring "discipline

Also in the programme tonight, remembering the fallen.

Prince Charles leads a service to mark the 100th anniversary

:00:32.:00:33.

Among the guests, descendants of those who fought in 1917

:00:34.:00:49.

We remember it not only for the rain that fell,

:00:50.:00:54.

the mud that weighed down the living and swallowed the dead,

:00:55.:01:01.

but also for the courage and bravery of the men who fought here.

:01:02.:01:05.

A Royal Marine, Ciaran Maxwell, has been jailed after leading

:01:06.:01:08.

a double life as a bomb maker for dissident Republicans,

:01:09.:01:11.

An extra 21,000 mental health workers in England are to be

:01:12.:01:17.

But unions say it's an impossible task.

Coming up in Sportsday on BBC News later in the hour,

:01:36.:01:38.

a blow for the World Athletics Championships that start

:01:39.:01:40.

One of its biggest stars, David Rudisha, has had

:01:41.:01:43.

After an already turbulent last few days at the White House,

:01:44.:02:09.

the newly appointed communications director, Anthony Scaramucci,

:02:10.:02:11.

It's being reported that President Trump decided he should go

:02:12.:02:20.

after a request by John Kelly, who was sworn in today as

:02:21.:02:22.

A former four star general, it's hoped Mr Kelly will bring

:02:23.:02:28.

"discipline and strength" to a White House seemingly in chaos.

:02:29.:02:30.

Well, our North America Editor, Jon Sopel, is there.

:02:31.:02:39.

It is hard to overstate the significance of what has unfolded.

:02:40.:02:45.

Ten days ago Anthony Scaramucci was seen as the answer to all the White

:02:46.:02:50.

House's communications problems but now he has gone, apparently escorted

:02:51.:02:54.

off the premises. There has been a sense of chaos and drift because

:02:55.:02:59.

also seen the departure of the press secretary, the previous chief of

:03:00.:03:03.

staff and now Mr Scaramucci. It is a White House at a crossroads, either

:03:04.:03:07.

going down the path of further chaos and discord or with a new chief of

:03:08.:03:13.

staff getting a bit of iron discipline into the way this place

:03:14.:03:17.

runs. That is why this is such a pivotal moment.

:03:18.:03:20.

I'm going to be brief and make my remarks informal. He was right about

:03:21.:03:27.

that, wasn't he? It is day one on the job and certain things are

:03:28.:03:31.

instantly clear. Anthony Scaramucci does not lack for self-confidence,

:03:32.:03:35.

swagger or bravado. I love the president and I'm very loyal. This

:03:36.:03:40.

would be his first and last appearance at the White House

:03:41.:03:44.

podium. Ten days later the new communications director is gone and

:03:45.:03:46.

the White House knowing him his goodbye. Let it not be said it was

:03:47.:03:52.

an uneventful ten days. It told the BBC he would be straight talking.

:03:53.:03:55.

One of the things I cannot stand about this pound is the backstabbing

:03:56.:04:02.

-- this town. Where I grew up we are fund stabbers that we tell you

:04:03.:04:05.

exactly where we are from and what we are doing. Turbulence does not

:04:06.:04:09.

begin to describe it. In a foul mouth tie-break he went to war with

:04:10.:04:12.

the two most senior people in the West Wing who are not the president.

:04:13.:04:17.

In his conversations with the New Yorker magazine he said the former

:04:18.:04:18.

chief of staff... By last Friday the chief of staff

:04:19.:04:39.

had been fired, left abandoned at Andrews Air Force Base. A scalp to

:04:40.:04:44.

Scaramucci but now, irony of ironies, General John Kelly, on the

:04:45.:04:47.

first day as new chief of staff, had changes he wanted to make as the

:04:48.:04:52.

president lavished praise on him. I want to congratulate you on having

:04:53.:04:57.

done a fantastic job and we look forward to come if it's possible,

:04:58.:05:01.

and even better job as chief of staff. The general had demanded the

:05:02.:05:05.

head of Scaramucci and the President served it up on a platter. After a

:05:06.:05:11.

dizzying few days, the President's press secretary tried to sound calm.

:05:12.:05:16.

The president suddenly felt that Anthony's comments were

:05:17.:05:18.

inappropriate for a person in that position. And he did not want to

:05:19.:05:26.

burden general Kelly also with that line of succession. Before all this

:05:27.:05:27.

unfold at the president tweeted... No White House chaos! Actually,

:05:28.:05:46.

still quite chaotic as the president went to a ceremony in the east wing

:05:47.:05:50.

to honour those who were prepared to lay down their lives for their

:05:51.:05:51.

comrades and their country. You talked of iron discipline now

:05:52.:06:02.

descending on the White House after the appointment of Mr Kelly and that

:06:03.:06:06.

is what the president is praying for it seems? Let's see what happened in

:06:07.:06:10.

the long-term. We have been here before where there have been of

:06:11.:06:14.

personnel with a new campaign manager in the campaign, thinking

:06:15.:06:17.

that might herald a different direction for how Trump would

:06:18.:06:19.

campaign and it did not materialise but having said that, that is the

:06:20.:06:24.

sceptical view. The other is that General Kelly has already been given

:06:25.:06:29.

a lot of authority to make changes, to bring in discipline and have a

:06:30.:06:32.

clear chain of command so that everybody reports to him. You do not

:06:33.:06:37.

have the freewheeling that has been the hallmark of this White House

:06:38.:06:40.

this last six months with people able to go directly to the

:06:41.:06:49.

president, cut out other people in the chain of command. General Kelly

:06:50.:06:51.

will want to see that that happened and, frankly, his success depends as

:06:52.:06:54.

much on Donald Trump and whether he continues to give him that

:06:55.:06:57.

authority. I think all the time things are going well Donald Trump

:06:58.:07:00.

will give him that but remember that this is not about a food fight in

:07:01.:07:06.

the white building behind me, there are some pretty big ticket issues

:07:07.:07:11.

like North Korea, Russia, intractable problems that the

:07:12.:07:14.

president needs to have a team where they are all pulling in one

:07:15.:07:18.

direction. They have been pulling in all different directions and it has

:07:19.:07:22.

been a White House at war with itself. General Kelly has taken the

:07:23.:07:26.

first steps today to bring that to an end. Many thanks for that. John

the Tyne Cot Cemetery in Belgium where the commemorations have

been taking place. Yes, over three months,

British and Allied troops clashed with German soldiers in what became

:07:44.:07:49.

known as the Battle In the fields around this cemetery,

:07:50.:07:52.

around half a million soldiers - on both sides of the war -

:07:53.:07:58.

were killed, wounded As the battle began,

:07:59.:08:00.

torrential rain fell. But the names of many

are etched in stone There are few more peaceful places

than the gentle slope of Tyne Cot. Today, among its white

headstones, families looked back across the years

to another big push. The battle we know today

:08:36.:08:42.

as Passchendaele would We remember it not only

:08:43.:08:45.

for the rain that fell, the mud that weighed down the living

:08:46.:08:54.

and swallowed the dead, but also for the courage and bravery

:08:55.:08:58.

of the men who fought here. Tyne Cot overlooks the rolling

beside the German bunker that now The Lancashire Fusiliers

:09:30.:09:32.

made their way uphill towards Passchendaele village

:09:33.:09:39.

and a spot which Bert later said We came across what would be

about 100 yards square of bodies that had been caught

behind the medals, I think you start Heroism which brought his great

great niece here for the first time. Perhaps we won't have such big,

government funded events at this today, but what we will have

:11:05.:11:08.

are stories we can pass down the generations in a way that

:11:09.:11:11.

I don't think should stop for something that

:11:12.:11:14.

was so significant. Flanders means blood

:11:15.:11:17.

and scraps of human bodies. Flanders means heroic courage

:11:18.:11:24.

and faithfulness unto death. The horrors of Passchendaele have

been passed from family to family Flanders is likely to remain

:12:02.:12:11.

of a dawn service in the field where infantrymen of the 30th

better death than shame. Some of those who made the ultimate

sacrifice are buried Among them,

a 30-year-old Welsh poet. Private Ellis Evans was better known

:12:38.:12:47.

by his pen name, Hedd Wyn. Inspired by the landscape

:12:48.:12:52.

around his home in Snowdonia, he was a reluctant soldier,

:12:53.:12:55.

conscripted into service. He used to carry a spade,

:12:56.:13:04.

a pickaxe and the shears, and never in his life had a rifle

:13:05.:13:10.

in his hand. You might as well say he was going

:13:11.:13:12.

to the front line naked. A few weeks later, a poem he had

:13:13.:13:15.

sent from the front line won the highest honour in Wales,

the Chair of the His absence at the prize-giving

ceremony came to symbolise a lost generation felt

:13:24.:13:27.

by many farming communities. All the cream of the young

:13:28.:13:32.

men had been killed. To me it doesn't make

:13:33.:13:34.

sense whatsoever. Hedd Wyn was honoured today

:13:35.:13:41.

in a special service. Among those taking part, Sian Rees,

who has her own story to tell. Her grandfather, Bert Hinder,

:13:53.:13:57.

was 19 when he joined up. He survived the battle and made his

:13:58.:14:02.

home in the seaside town of Rhyl. He was jolly, he was small,

:14:03.:14:05.

he had terrible jokes and he always used to give me a sixpence

:14:06.:14:13.

on a Saturday morning. Like so many, Bert never spoke

:14:14.:14:17.

about the horrors he saw. The miracle of the First World War

:14:18.:14:22.

is, although so many millions died, that so many thousands returned home

:14:23.:14:26.

and nobody knew what The Welsh Division did

achieve their goal of pushing We'll be back at Tyne Cot later

but for now back to Clive in London. A serving Royal Marine

who led a double life making bombs for a dissident

Republican group in Northern Ireland, has been

:15:05.:15:06.

jailed for 18 years. Ciaran Maxwell was described

:15:07.:15:08.

by the judge at the Old Bailey as a "dangerous" man who threatened

the political stability Soon after he signed up,

Ciaran Maxwell became the enemy On Facebook, he posted this video

of his training exercises as he was supposedly serving

and sophisticated bomb maker who could have supplied these

devices over a long period of time to violent dissident republican

:15:49.:15:52.

groups and undoubtedly, I believe, that by being caught now,

:15:53.:15:55.

lives have been saved. Ciaran Maxwell came

:15:56.:15:57.

from Northern Ireland and four of his bombs were used

:15:58.:15:59.

here by the Continuity IRA. No-one was hurt but Maxwell built

:16:00.:16:07.

14 bombs and some of his devices are still feared to be

:16:08.:16:10.

in dissident hands. He knew those he was working

:16:11.:16:16.

for were intent on attacking police stations and killing

:16:17.:16:18.

officers and others. It was near his hometown of Larne

:16:19.:16:20.

that police uncovered the first of a series of hides he used

:16:21.:16:26.

to store his lethal stashes. These included timers

:16:27.:16:31.

and antipersonnel mines. Fertiliser recovered here could have

:16:32.:16:35.

been the base for a bomb bigger than the one that caused carnage

at Enniskillen in 1987. As a member of the Royal Marines

elite 40 Commando Unit, Ciaran Maxwell was based

:16:49.:16:51.

here in Somerset and this For years without ever being caught,

:16:52.:16:53.

he had been systematically stealing British military ammunition

:16:54.:16:59.

and adding it to his As well as the locations

:17:00.:17:00.

in Northern Ireland, Maxwell had a further network

:17:01.:17:03.

of hides in Devon. Larne, where Maxwell grew up,

:17:04.:17:05.

is a mainly unionist town and as a Catholic teenager his skull

:17:06.:17:17.

was fractured when he was badly This left him with

:17:18.:17:20.

post-traumatic stress disorder. He claimed this was the reason

:17:21.:17:25.

for his irrational behaviour but the judge rejected this,

:17:26.:17:28.

describing him as a dissident As well as smuggling bullets

:17:29.:17:31.

and other kit out of his base, he was also smuggling cannabis

:17:32.:17:37.

and LSD in. This picture with his cannabis crop

:17:38.:17:42.

was recovered after his arrest. A former Army officer and now

:17:43.:17:46.

Northern Ireland politician, Doug Beattie is amazed at Maxwell's

:17:47.:17:52.

audacious double life. We could have been looking at a loss

:17:53.:17:57.

of life perpetrated at the hands of a serving soldier of the British

:17:58.:18:01.

military and if we don't have a look at our security checks and how

:18:02.:18:05.

we vet people before they join the military then we are going

:18:06.:18:08.

to have problems in the future. The Ministry of Defence says

:18:09.:18:11.

all personnel are subject to regular checks but Ciaran Maxwell,

:18:12.:18:13.

the renegade commando, has caused serious embarrassment

:18:14.:18:16.

to the Royal Marines. The Government says it wants

:18:17.:18:19.

to recruit an extra 21,000 mental health workers in England

:18:20.:18:28.

over the next four years. The Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt,

:18:29.:18:31.

says it's time to end what he called the "historic imbalance"

:18:32.:18:35.

between mental and physical But the Royal College of Nursing has

:18:36.:18:36.

questioned if there's enough As a teenager, Hope had

:18:37.:18:44.

a serious eating disorder. She thought she'd got

:18:45.:18:49.

through it after treatment but, last year, a family bereavement

:18:50.:18:55.

triggered a relapse. She was offered therapy,

:18:56.:18:57.

but was told there would be a 12-week wait -

:18:58.:18:59.

news she said was devastating. The way I was treated

:19:00.:19:02.

last year wasn't right. There were points when I did

:19:03.:19:05.

want to kind of end everything, and when I never thought

:19:06.:19:09.

I'd ever be well again. And it was at those points

:19:10.:19:11.

that I was so angry because when you cry out for help,

:19:12.:19:14.

you already feel guilty because you've got this voice

:19:15.:19:18.

in your head telling you that you shouldn't be eating,

:19:19.:19:20.

you shouldn't be asking for help, so when you do call out for help

:19:21.:19:23.

and you get turned away, you think that actually,

:19:24.:19:26.

no-one does care about you, no-one kind of understands

:19:27.:19:28.

what you're going through. To cut down waiting times and expand

:19:29.:19:30.

mental health services, the Government has announced

:19:31.:19:33.

an expansion of the workforce. We've worked out exactly how many

:19:34.:19:37.

more doctors, nurses, We worked out where we think

:19:38.:19:40.

we can get them from. Like all plans, it will be

:19:41.:19:44.

challenging to deliver it, but we are determined to hold true

:19:45.:19:47.

to our promise to transform The plan for mental health

those, as well as putting Mental health professionals

:20:41.:20:43.

like Mandy Stevens believe the pressures of the job

:20:44.:20:50.

are affecting recruitment. She says in her experience more

:20:51.:20:52.

staff are leaving than joining. The emotional toll on individual

:20:53.:20:57.

nurses can be very difficult, making I think the pay has had an impact

:20:58.:21:00.

on nurses over the past few years and it's quite difficult to make

:21:01.:21:06.

ends meet on such a low salary. As for Hope, she says she has

:21:07.:21:11.

pulled through her latest mental health setback

:21:12.:21:18.

this was a big win. State TV ran his victory speech

at length but for the millions of people who boycotted the vote,

it was a hollow victory - if that. This morning, Caracas

that he was the leader who started Venezuela's

President Maduro is losing friends at home and abroad,

not least in the US which today announced it would impose

millions of people President Maduro said turnout

was 8 million but many doubt this figure and accuse the government

of voter fraud. They want to show they are powerful

repression and violence, But as the political

wrangling continues, people try and live their lives

as best they can. The government has hailed this

as a triumph for peace, as the only way to move the country

:25:15.:25:17.

forward but with so much anger and uncertainty

:25:18.:25:20.

about where Venezuela is headed, for many the vote has

:25:21.:25:22.

only made things worse. This country has seen four months

:25:23.:25:27.

of violent confrontations. 17-year-old Neomar Lander was killed

to the commemorations in Belgium to remember the 100th

anniversary of the battle Among the 4,000 guests

:30:04.:30:05.

here at Tyne Cot for a special ceremony today

:30:06.:30:11.

were descendants of those who fought Jill Barnett's father, Freddie

:30:12.:30:13.

Parsons, was one of those men. He - unlike so many others -

:30:14.:30:17.

survived the war. This afternoon I spoke to Jill,

:30:18.:30:19.

who was here with her family for the first time,

:30:20.:30:22.

about her father. We leave you tonight

:30:23.:30:24.

with her reflections as we remember one of the bloodiest battles

:30:25.:30:26.

in human history. It was a wonderful ceremony. I loved

:30:27.:30:46.

every moment of it. I thought it was beautifully done. How much did he

:30:47.:30:54.

talk about what happened? He did say I don't know how I came out alive.

:30:55.:30:57.

Men just blown to pieces all around him.

:30:58.:31:05.

It was literally a putrid soup of body parts and rain

:31:06.:31:08.

And your father also spoke about the horses

:31:09.:31:15.

One of his horses was fatally wounded in shrapnel or something.

:31:16.:31:23.

And, this particular horse, I think he was probably quite

:31:24.:31:26.

fond of or something and he sat with it for a few

:31:27.:31:29.

They weren't allowed to put them out of their misery, they weren't

:31:30.:31:34.

Because the ammunition was all supposed to be kept for the enemy.

:31:35.:31:39.

So, your mother is believed to be the oldest surviving

:31:40.:31:41.

There was a 25-year age gap between my father and her.

:31:42.:31:51.

Obviously not well enough to be here today.

:31:52.:31:54.

So, it was quite nice to be here for her.

:31:55.:31:57.

And I just feel so grateful that my father survived.

:31:58.:32:08.

It is wonderful really and I think he'd be very proud.
