:00:57. > :01:01.Britain was quickly followed by a flurry of questions, not least why
:01:02. > :01:04.it's wavering position had so suddenly firmed up. At the
:01:05. > :01:08.government offered sweeteners? This morning, the Business Secretary
:01:09. > :01:14.refused to publish its letter of reassurance to the car giant but
:01:15. > :01:17.opened up on its contents. He said they will be funding available for

:01:55. > :01:58.Without tariffs and without bureaucratic commitments. Was this a

:02:05. > :02:09.Minister would not say. But Labour wants answers. It is not just this
:02:10. > :02:12.deal that we need to know about it is what happens to the other
:02:13. > :02:15.businesses. Businesses are talking to me all the time and they are
:02:16. > :02:20.worried about what happens to them. They want to trade on the same terms
:02:21. > :02:22.and if there is a deal good enough for Nissan, understandably they are
:02:23. > :02:26.saying that they broadly want the same deal. The result of the
:02:27. > :02:31.question of service industries, banking, the creative sector, which

:03:17. > :03:24.million people get the employment support allowance which is worth up
:03:25. > :03:27.to ?109 a week. They have to undergo a Work Capability Assessment to see
:03:28. > :03:31.whether they are well enough to look for work. From next year, those who
:03:32. > :03:35.are will receive less than those who cannot. The government has already
:03:36. > :03:38.said that people with the most serious conditions should not be
:03:39. > :03:42.reassessed but now it has gone further. It is quite right that for
:03:43. > :03:48.people who cannot work, of course, there should be ongoing support. But
:03:49. > :03:52.what we are looking at now is asking disabled people and charities who
:03:53. > :03:55.work with disabled people, the experts, how we can do better to
:03:56. > :04:00.make sure that we have more support, appropriate support to help people
:04:01. > :04:03.to overcome whatever barriers the may have. The system does not seem
:04:04. > :04:09.to be working well at the moment. More than half of all appeals are
:04:10. > :04:12.upheld, which is why the disability charities have welcomed this
:04:13. > :04:16.decision to overhaul the system. The absolute key is to make sure that
:04:17. > :04:22.all disabled people who want to get back to work in future, who can work
:04:23. > :04:25.with support, receive voluntary but specialist and personalised support
:04:26. > :04:28.to help them get back to work. So you think that this idea of an
:04:29. > :04:33.overhaul is good? It is absolutely a good thing that they are consulting
:04:34. > :04:36.and they need to listen carefully to disabled people, whose experience
:04:37. > :04:39.over the past few years is vital in making sure the new system is
:04:40. > :04:42.positive. Today's announcement is just part of a wide-ranging
:04:43. > :04:46.consultation which will be launched tomorrow. Labour says the
:04:47. > :04:49.controversial Work Capability Assessment is should be scrapped

:08:34. > :08:37.latest investigation by Monday. They are crying foul. They say the timing
:08:38. > :08:42.of this is unprecedented, and they believe that it may be politically
:08:43. > :08:46.motivated. When it comes to Donald Trump, it has been a real gift for
:08:47. > :08:56.him. He is accusing Hillary Clinton of wilful criminal neglect. When it
:08:57. > :09:01.comes to the FBI director, James Komi, he is coming under a lot of
:09:02. > :09:05.pressure. Many little analysts believed that he was dammed if they
:09:06. > :09:09.did and dammed if they didn't. If he released information after the
:09:10. > :09:13.election many would have accused him of a cover-up. But it is reported
