years have been released in an effort to defuse

They show the Prime Minister had a taxable income of more

than ?200,000 last year and paid over ?70,000 in tax.

But questions are now being asked about a ?200,000 gift

from Mr Cameron's mother following his father's death.

Our Political Correspondent Tom Bateman reports.

It has been, by his own admission, not a great week

Questions about his financial affairs led to five separate

statements from him or his officials over several days.

And then last night a first in British politics,

the Prime Minister published details of his income and his tax payments.

The protesters had wanted information about David Cameron's

finances, so what do the accounts tell us?

Last year, his income was just over ?200,000.

140,000 of that was his salary as Prime Minister.

He made nearly ?47,000 renting out his London home.

A further ?12,800 were declared as expenses.

Much of the focus has been on the money David Cameron

received after the death of his father six years ago.

We already knew he received ?300,000 from his will,

but we now know he got a further ?200,000 from his mother in two

Downing Street denied suggestions this was done to minimise

Instead it was to share the inheritance more fairly

The Prime Minister has now taken the unprecedented step of more

disclosure. I think the people who definitely need to do this are the

Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition. I know Jeremy Corbyn

says he will do it but I don't think he has done it yet. Labour accept it

the money gifted to Mr Cameron by his mother was within the rules but

they claim it highlights a wider problem. This is about the system,

and a system whereby somebody can effectively inherit ?500,000 from

his mother and father and not pay a penny on it, there is something

wrong in the system that allows that to happen. Downing Street has shone

a light on David Cameron's finances, hoping the message will be received

that there is nothing to see here. But Labour want the Prime Minister

to make a statement in Parliament when MPs return this week. For now,

difficult questions and headlines will not go away. Tom Bateman, BBC

News. With me now is our Political

Correspondent Carole Walker. He's hoping this row

will now go away - will it? Indeed, but I think what Downing

Street are hoping is that by putting out all this information I can start

to get on the front foot as Parliament returns tomorrow. Labour

are still pushing for more details. They say that we haven't got the

full tax returns, we don't know the source of the ?200,000 gift from

David Cameron's mother. We need a much wider enquiry into Whaley

International tax havens work and so on. That'll be argued over the

coming weeks and months. It's cleared the move has opened up the

efforts to make the whole system more transparent. Jeremy Corbyn this

morning even suggested that all politicians and indeed journalists

who interview them, should publish their own tax returns. That might

not happen overnight, but I think there will now be pressure for much

wider reform to include a lot more transparency right across our tax

and political system. More than a hundred people have been

killed by an explosion and blaze at a temple in Southern

India. The blast in Paravur

in the state of Kerala, is thought to have been

caused by an explosion Our correspondent

Andy Moore reports. Thousands of people had gathered

at the temple in the early hours of the morning to watch a fireworks

competition between A spark ignited a store

of fireworks, causing Witnesses say the roof

of the temple collapsed. The blast was felt

over a kilometre away. Piles of unexploded fireworks

were left in the debris. Officials say the display had gone

ahead despite being denied permission because of safety

concerns, an account confirmed TRANSLATION: A woman living

near the temple had obtained a court ruling against the organisers

of the firework display. The display caused damage

to her home, but people wanted to see the fireworks,

so the temple authorities reached a compromise and

decided to go ahead. Throughout the night,

a fleet of ambulances ferried hundreds of injured

people to local hospitals. Doctors said they were overwhelmed,

having to treat casualties with serious injuries and more

than 50% burns. In daylight, the rescue

England says junior doctors will cause irreparable damage

to the profession, if their strike action extends to emergency

care later this month. Sir Bruce Keogh, writing

in the Observer, says the planned walkout in England -

in a dispute about a new contract - will put significant

strain on services. There have been four junior doctors'

strikes so far in England. They have affected routine

but not urgent care. Later this month the action will be

escalated to include all forms Sir Bruce Keogh says this

is a watershed moment for the NHS. In his Observer article

he says: Doctors are By withdrawing emergency cover

we risk crossing a line which will irreparably damage this

trust and the reputation He says the new action will put

additional significant strain on A, intensive care

and maternity services. With our sickest and most vulnerable

patients at greater risk. Sir Bruce does note that junior

doctors feel disengaged and powerless to change difficult

working conditions and are supported He says all parties are responsible

for solving the underlying issues. The British Medical Association

said junior doctors' concerns had been ignored,

so they had no choice. A spokesman said future action

was avoidable if the Government got back round the table and ended

the dispute through talks and that senior doctors would provide

emergency care on the strike days. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
