:00:22. > :00:28.years have been released in an effort to defuse

:00:29. > :00:32.They show the Prime Minister had a taxable income of more

:00:33. > :00:39.than ?200,000 last year and paid over ?70,000 in tax.

:00:40. > :00:42.But questions are now being asked about a ?200,000 gift

:00:43. > :00:44.from Mr Cameron's mother following his father's death.

:00:45. > :00:48.Our Political Correspondent Tom Bateman reports.

:00:49. > :00:51.It has been, by his own admission, not a great week

:00:52. > :01:01.Questions about his financial affairs led to five separate

:01:02. > :01:03.statements from him or his officials over several days.

:01:04. > :01:05.And then last night a first in British politics,

:01:06. > :01:09.the Prime Minister published details of his income and his tax payments.

:01:10. > :01:12.The protesters had wanted information about David Cameron's

:01:13. > :01:14.finances, so what do the accounts tell us?

:01:15. > :01:20.Last year, his income was just over ?200,000.

:01:21. > :01:24.140,000 of that was his salary as Prime Minister.

:01:25. > :01:26.He made nearly ?47,000 renting out his London home.

:01:27. > :01:32.A further ?12,800 were declared as expenses.

:01:33. > :01:36.Much of the focus has been on the money David Cameron

:01:37. > :01:39.received after the death of his father six years ago.

:01:40. > :01:42.We already knew he received ?300,000 from his will,

:01:43. > :01:45.but we now know he got a further ?200,000 from his mother in two

:01:46. > :01:51.Downing Street denied suggestions this was done to minimise

:01:52. > :01:56.Instead it was to share the inheritance more fairly

:01:57. > :02:08.The Prime Minister has now taken the unprecedented step of more

:02:09. > :02:12.disclosure. I think the people who definitely need to do this are the

:02:13. > :02:15.Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition. I know Jeremy Corbyn

:02:16. > :02:19.says he will do it but I don't think he has done it yet. Labour accept it

:02:20. > :02:23.the money gifted to Mr Cameron by his mother was within the rules but

:02:24. > :02:27.they claim it highlights a wider problem. This is about the system,

:02:28. > :02:32.and a system whereby somebody can effectively inherit ?500,000 from

:02:33. > :02:36.his mother and father and not pay a penny on it, there is something

:02:37. > :02:40.wrong in the system that allows that to happen. Downing Street has shone

:02:41. > :02:44.a light on David Cameron's finances, hoping the message will be received

:02:45. > :02:48.that there is nothing to see here. But Labour want the Prime Minister

:02:49. > :02:52.to make a statement in Parliament when MPs return this week. For now,

:02:53. > :02:53.difficult questions and headlines will not go away. Tom Bateman, BBC

:02:54. > :02:55.News. With me now is our Political

:02:56. > :02:57.Correspondent Carole Walker. He's hoping this row

:02:58. > :03:04.will now go away - will it? Indeed, but I think what Downing

:03:05. > :03:07.Street are hoping is that by putting out all this information I can start

:03:08. > :03:12.to get on the front foot as Parliament returns tomorrow. Labour

:03:13. > :03:17.are still pushing for more details. They say that we haven't got the

:03:18. > :03:22.full tax returns, we don't know the source of the ?200,000 gift from

:03:23. > :03:26.David Cameron's mother. We need a much wider enquiry into Whaley

:03:27. > :03:32.International tax havens work and so on. That'll be argued over the

:03:33. > :03:39.coming weeks and months. It's cleared the move has opened up the

:03:40. > :03:43.efforts to make the whole system more transparent. Jeremy Corbyn this

:03:44. > :03:47.morning even suggested that all politicians and indeed journalists

:03:48. > :03:51.who interview them, should publish their own tax returns. That might

:03:52. > :03:57.not happen overnight, but I think there will now be pressure for much

:03:58. > :03:58.wider reform to include a lot more transparency right across our tax

:03:59. > :04:01.and political system. More than a hundred people have been

:04:02. > :04:04.killed by an explosion and blaze at a temple in Southern

:04:05. > :04:05.India. The blast in Paravur

:04:06. > :04:07.in the state of Kerala, is thought to have been

:04:08. > :04:09.caused by an explosion Our correspondent

:04:10. > :04:14.Andy Moore reports. Thousands of people had gathered

:04:15. > :04:18.at the temple in the early hours of the morning to watch a fireworks

:04:20. > :04:24.of fireworks, causing Witnesses say the roof

:04:25. > :04:29.of the temple collapsed. The blast was felt

:04:30. > :04:32.over a kilometre away. Piles of unexploded fireworks

:04:33. > :04:36.were left in the debris. Officials say the display had gone

:04:37. > :04:40.ahead despite being denied permission because of safety

:04:41. > :04:42.concerns, an account confirmed TRANSLATION: A woman living

:04:43. > :04:48.near the temple had obtained a court ruling against the organisers

:04:49. > :04:51.of the firework display. The display caused damage

:04:52. > :04:54.to her home, but people wanted to see the fireworks,

:04:55. > :04:56.so the temple authorities reached a compromise and

:04:57. > :04:59.decided to go ahead. Throughout the night,

:05:00. > :05:02.a fleet of ambulances ferried hundreds of injured

:05:03. > :05:04.people to local hospitals. Doctors said they were overwhelmed,

:05:05. > :05:07.having to treat casualties with serious injuries and more

:05:08. > :05:11.than 50% burns. In daylight, the rescue

:06:47. > :06:48.a clear overall lead. The key New York Primary

:06:49. > :06:51.is later this month. The Medical Director of NHS

:06:52. > :06:53.England says junior doctors will cause irreparable damage

:06:54. > :06:55.to the profession, if their strike action extends to emergency

:06:56. > :06:57.care later this month. Sir Bruce Keogh, writing

:06:58. > :07:00.in the Observer, says the planned walkout in England -

:07:01. > :07:03.in a dispute about a new contract - will put significant

:07:04. > :07:06.strain on services. There have been four junior doctors'

:07:07. > :07:15.strikes so far in England. They have affected routine

:07:16. > :07:17.but not urgent care. Later this month the action will be

:07:18. > :07:19.escalated to include all forms Sir Bruce Keogh says this

:07:20. > :07:26.is a watershed moment for the NHS. In his Observer article

:07:27. > :07:29.he says: Doctors are By withdrawing emergency cover

:07:30. > :07:34.we risk crossing a line which will irreparably damage this

:07:35. > :07:37.trust and the reputation He says the new action will put

:07:38. > :07:44.additional significant strain on A, intensive care

:07:45. > :07:47.and maternity services. With our sickest and most vulnerable

:07:48. > :07:50.patients at greater risk. Sir Bruce does note that junior

:07:51. > :07:53.doctors feel disengaged and powerless to change difficult

:07:54. > :07:56.working conditions and are supported He says all parties are responsible

:07:57. > :08:03.for solving the underlying issues. The British Medical Association

:08:04. > :08:06.said junior doctors' concerns had been ignored,

:08:07. > :08:10.so they had no choice. A spokesman said future action

:08:11. > :08:14.was avoidable if the Government got back round the table and ended

:08:15. > :08:18.the dispute through talks and that senior doctors would provide

:08:19. > :08:23.emergency care on the strike days. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

:08:24. > :08:29.have met survivors of the 2008 Mumbai attacks at the start

:08:30. > :08:32.of a seven-day tour The couple laid a wreath

:08:33. > :08:36.at the city's Taj Palace Hotel, which was the focus

:08:37. > :08:38.of the terrorists' assault. It's the first Royal

:08:39. > :08:41.tour in two years for Our Royal Correspondent Nicholas

:08:42. > :08:47.Witchell reports from Mumbai. It promises to be one of the most

:08:48. > :08:50.ambitious foreign tours they've undertaken -

:08:51. > :08:53.a week in India. William and Catherine,

:08:54. > :08:55.minus George and Charlotte, who've stayed in Britain,

:09:07. > :09:12.hotel staff who were on duty when the hotel was attacked

:09:13. > :09:14.by Al-Qaeda linked extremists More than 30 people

:09:15. > :09:19.were killed at the hotel. Another 130 died in rampaging

:09:20. > :09:22.attacks elsewhere in Mumbai. William and Catherine placed

:09:23. > :09:29.a wreath in their memory. Over the next seven days,

:09:30. > :09:34.they will see the many sides of modern India -

:09:35. > :09:37.a nation where growing economic power coexists

:09:38. > :09:40.with widespread deprivation. And they'll be reminded

:09:41. > :09:42.of the interwoven histories No longer is it a relationship

:09:43. > :09:47.in which Britain is India matters to Britain

:09:48. > :09:53.economically more and more. Now, Royals don't talk

:09:54. > :09:56.about trade or politics, but a visit such as this can do

:09:57. > :09:59.a lot to foster The visit will conclude next

:10:00. > :10:07.Saturday at the Taj Mahal - a place many still associate

:10:08. > :10:09.with William's mother Diana and her visit to the

:10:10. > :10:13.monument 24 years ago. By then, William and Catherine

:10:14. > :10:17.will hope to have played a part in underpinning the sometimes
