Decision day approaches for Labour MPs.

They are poised to decide who will take on Jeremy Corbyn.

Will it be Angela Eagle or Owen Smith?

It was another embarrassing day for Labour in the Commons,

divided on Trident and with MPs turning on their leader.

on a Trident replacement, knowing that it was

bound to exacerbate the leadership tensions there.

The parliamentary motion in favour of a Trident replacement

It was a binary motion - for or against, but Labour managed

to split three ways - for, against and abstain.

And tonight, Labour's leadership contest is also split three ways.

Jeremy Corbyn, in the running of course, and two challengers

putting themselves up for a fight, Angela Eagle and Owen Smith.

The two challengers should become one before long.

Our political editor Nick Watt is with me.

the result of the Trident vote, any surprise? No surprise, parliament

has voted overwhelmingly in favour of replacing Trident. That means a

sizeable number of Labour in these voted with the government but

crucially they voted for official Labour Party policy, to support the

nuclear deterrent. Jeremy Corbyn, facing a leadership challenge, a

great opportunity for him to burnish his credentials as a lifelong

supporter of unilateral nuclear disarmament. Where does this leave

the leadership race? We have learned that the two challengers, Angela

Eagle and Owen Smith, are going to agree a unity candidate when

nominations close at 5pm on Wednesday. The candidate with the

fewest number of nominations will stand aside. So we thought with 48

hours to go until the deadline, we would have a look at the dark horse

candidate, Owen Smith. It isn't that long ago that the man

who could be on the cusp of challenging Jeremy Corbyn for the

leadership of the Labour Party was barely known outside the world of

political think tanks. Bevan has gone. Owen Smith is being hailed by

his friends as Labour's great hope, in the mould of his hero and fellow

Welshman, Nye Bevan. Very much the soft left of the Labour Party. Much

of is rooted in his own roots in Wales, someone who can see the other

point of view and is able to create a bridge between different parts of

the Labour Party. Smith has moved to distance himself from Tony Blair by

calling for Klaus four of the Labour Party constitution to be rewritten

once again, to contain an explicit commitment to tackle inequality.

Some of the things that particularly excited me are his bold plans for

the economy, now is the time we need to be investing in the future, not

cutting back. That tradition of economic intervention. He's

articulated that, really powerfully and passionately in a way I think

that can win the next election on that platform. Critics in the Labour

Party say that Owen Smith started his political career as an adviser

to a Cabinet minister who was one of Tony Blair's greatest admirers. But

his former boss points out that Smith was no fan of the most

damaging legacy of the Blair in the, the Iraq war. On issues like the

Iraq war, for example, he was with me in 2003 when I was the Northern

Ireland Secretary in the Cabinet. He disagreed with the decision to go

into the Iraq war and he stuck with that position. Owen Smith knows he

has a challenge to show that he is a clean skin, untainted by Labour's

period in office. Friends say that he was one of the first senior

figures to clock the defining aspect of the party, the disconnect between

the grassroot members and the elite. His loss in a loss solid -- in a

solid Labour seat a decade ago taught him failure and never

neglecting natural supporters. Friends say that his experience in

the by-election has informed his approach to politics ever since. As

soon as he arrived in Parliament in 2010 he said that Labour had to move

on from the Blair and Brown era. Campaigning in the Scottish

independence referendum, he predicted the collapse in support

for Labour with the words" this feels like my constituency." He has

an instinctive feel for Labour as a son of one of its great historians.

His father, Dai Smith, the doyen of Street. It's only after Owen decided

he would work with us that I got to know him -- of history. Owen Smith

is working hard to show he is a man of the people. He ran into trouble

today when he put his family to the fore, inviting comparisons with his

rival, Angela Eagle, who is in a civil partnership. I'm glad you

think I'm normal, I am normal, I grew up in a normal household, I

have a wife and three children, my wife is a teacher. Owen Smith is a

determined political fighter but he can sometimes appear a bit on

worldly. During his time as a BBC radio producer he was once asked to

get a police response to an unfolding crime story. Smith

telephoned 999, prompting an official complaint by the Met. He

made to be a bit more savvy if he's going to wrest control of the Labour

Party. Just to give you one bit of data,

for what it's worth. The bookies have Jeremy Corbyn

as favourite to win the leadership race, but Owen Smith

is not far behind. The odds imply a 54%

chance of Corbyn winning, Well, I'm joined by three Labour MPs

with three different views. Lisa Nandy is backing Owen Smith,

Lilian Greenwood is supporting Angela Eagle and Barry Gardiner,

who opposes the challenge Lilian, you published a speech that

you gave to your party about why you weren't behind Jeremy Corbyn. What

anecdote can you get from that that you would say is the most telling

for what's wrong with the Corbyn leadership? For me, it's all about

confidence or rather the lack of it. Calendar item is when rail fares go

up at the start of the year and Labour had a brand-new policy, a

very popular policy around renationalising the railways. We

planned to go out and do the work on the 4th of January, we had activists

ready to highlight our policy and ready to talk about the

Conservatives' failure and that very day when we had started doing the

media rounds, Jeremy Lawlor is re-shuffle and completely knocked it

off the newspapers -- Jeremy launched his reachable. At a leader

has to do reshuffle when he has two reshuffle. It wasn't a little press

think it was a huge media item that was planned for a long time. If that

was the only example, I wouldn't be saying that I'd lost confidence but

unfortunately that was only one of many examples. Lisa, is that your

experience too Western Mark during the leadership election when Jeremy

fought on the ticket of changing politics, that was Barry welcomed

and we should recognise it was an important moment for the party but

the experienced Lilian described is the experience of many of my Shadow

Cabinet colleagues, finding that the culture of having small groups

around the leader making decisions outside of the collective leadership

team has continued, we haven't been able to change that. What is worse

is that when it became apparent that this was becoming a real crisis and

a small group of us who are politically and personally

sympathetic to Jeremy and the attempts he's made to bring people

into his team went to see him it became very apparent that the

collective leadership around him were not prepared to reach out and

unite and compromise. In fact they were telling us they were going to

do the opposite, even if the likely result is to smash the party. The

truth is that none of us should support that. Barry Gardiner, why

are you supporting that? I'm taking on the Conservatives because I

believe it was incredible that at a time when we had seen the results of

the referendum, when we had a Prime Minister being forced to resign as a

result of it, our top team, as it were, went a while. I don't think

that was right -- went AWOL. The weight in which it was done was to

try and get Jeremy to resign rather than following the party process, to

say we will have a contest and here is someone standing against them and

they have 50 votes -- the way in which it was done. That would have

been upfront, it would have been tough but it would have been

according to the process. The rather nasty undermining process. They

tried to force out without a vote. I think that was very wrong and it was

disrespectful. You are shaking your head. That isn't how it was, that

morning of the result when Jeremy called for the triggering of article

50 without even talking to the Shadow Cabinet, without talking to

the leader of the European Parliamentary Labour Party, was the

last straw. I could imagine having to talk to my voters, there was a

possibility of a very speedy general election, and they would ask me, do

you think Jeremy is the right person to lead the country and I wouldn't

be able to look them in the eye and say yes. Do you think he's the right

person to lead the country? Let's say we have an election in October,

you would say that he's the right man to be Prime Minister? As you

know, I didn't support Jeremy nine months ago and I will be

nominating... You would say that he should be Prime Minister? Any Labour

leader is better than any Conservative Prime Minister because

a Labour leader will deliver Labour policies and that is what is needed

by the people who we serve in this country, the people who are

marginalised, suffering from benefits cuts, the people who

absolutely need jobs that are not just wasted jobs. One of the key

test of a leader isn't whether he or she is prepared to stand up to their

enemies but whether they are prepared to stand up to their

friends and I think too much of what we've heard from people like Lilian

has shown that actually we don't have a situation in the Labour Party

where someone is prepared to do that. I also think, Barry, honestly,

that this isn't just about members of Parliament losing confidence in

Jeremy. We know that the membership is divided. Many people absolutely

support Corbyn and many people oppose him. We cannot be a united

political force if both the parliamentary party and large

sections of the membership have lost confidence in the leader. Including

newcomer from the sounds of this. All -- including you, from the

sounds of this. We don't own the party as members of Parliament, the

party operates according to democratic processes and what we

need to do is to find a negotiated way forward where all sides of the

party... Part two is both of you, backing

different candidates for checking on Jeremy Corbyn. Give me the 12 word

pitch. I am backing Angela Eagle because... I am not clear what the

distinctive pitches are. What is it that makes you back Angela Eagle? We

need somebody who can heal the party and the country and I think Angela

has got the experience, we have seen her resting George Osborne, the

experience of uniting the party, a brilliant chair of the national

policy forum, she is not factional and is frankly courageous. I think

it is about time the Labour Party was led by a woman. What is your

short pitch? I would agree with something one said, he would be

proud to serve under Angela Eagle if she emerged as a candidate and I

would echo that, I would do so with real pride. But what is good? What I

want in a Labour Party leader is someone with socialist values but a

plan to achieve them, who understands deeply that the way we

get the best answers for the country is to draw upon all the traditions

of the party in the Shadow Cabinet and the membership and somebody who

is relentlessly focused on the challenges we have now and coming

down the line rather than rehearsing old arguments of the past. How

important is it that a woman should be leader? Angela Eagle is making a

lot of that. When you say, would you drop out, it is basically about the

X chromosome? It is primarily about her qualities as a person, about

what I have seen of her in the time I have known her and were both pride

trading women but the Tories have got their second female Prime

Minister, goodness knows... 2-0! And for the party that is founded on the

basis of equality, I would agree, I would love a woman leader, but

equally I would love to see a feminist in Number 10 Downing St, I

don't believe we have that, Owen Smith is that person. Who is the

more left-wing? I am not sure. I would not say you cannot tell the

difference but what is happening in this debate is in many domestic

policy areas, there is not a huge mound of difference between members

of the Labour Party, I think myself, Harry, Lillian, we fundamentally

agree about the NHS in public hands, the railways in public hands and

that the basis of the economy should be about investment and not just

cuts. All of us are united on that and that is why we need a candidate

who can reach out across the party and bring us together. Barry

Gardiner, who would you support? Jeremy Corbyn? I am not supporting

or nominating anybody. You are members of the party. In the end, I

will have a vote. But I don't know. I will listen to the arguments as

they are made for the next couple of months and at the end of the day, I

will vote for whoever I think represents the best chance of us

getting a Labour government. There is an argument that I have heard

that is, you are saving the best candidates for the next leadership

election. These two are not the true a list. Lisa, you have been

mentioned as that! Why are you not running? Because I think that Owen

Smith is the best candidate and he asked me the same question and I

said that I think you should do this, you are the person to unite

this party and win the election and he would make an amazing Prime

Minister. You would support him, of all the other Labour MPs, you will

lose the next one and take one for the team... No, he is my top pick to

leave this party. Can you say the same thing about Angela Eagle?

Absolutely, there was no way I am writing off the next election, I

want to win the next election, that is why I am making the argument is,

the voters who put me in Westminster need a Labour government. And one

last quick one, there is a deal that only one of them can stand to beat

Jeremy Corbyn because it focuses the debate about one or the other rather

than some confused message? You cannot have two people standing on a

unity ticket and the truth is, both Angela and Owen Smith can reach out

to heal some of these divisions and unite the party and that is why we

need one of them going forward. Angela Will Pooley out? Everybody in

the Labour Party would like there to be one single candidate but it has

to be someone who can reach out to the Parliamentary party but unite

all of the wings of the party amongst the membership and I know

that Angela Eagle can do that but I have no doubt that Owen Smith could

also do that. -- Owen Smith. Thank you all.

Well, these are exceptional political times over here.

But they are also exceptional over in the US - the Republican National

Convention getting ready to crown Donald Trump this week

as its Presidential candidate in the election in November.

It's all happening over in Cleveland, Ohio.

Good evening. Almost ready, we should say. You join us from

Cleveland, Ohio, on a night of high drama - if we have learned one thing

about politics and the last month, is that predicted that he is dead

and tonight delegates have been trying to overturn the rules of the

convention that will secure Donald Trump that nomination. They have

been asking for a roll call to recognise every individual vote

rather than the block vote of each state, it is cognitive stuff but

essentially there is still an insurgency RFID. The Colorado

delegation which understand was walking out of you in protest in

response to this... In the opinion of the chair,

the ayes have it. APPLAUSE

If it sounds like the attempted coup has failed, we're hearing that the

Colorado delegation is going to try again. This is an embarrassing

moment for the self-styled law and order candidate, Donald Trump. And

the convention is set against a backdrop of disunity, not just here

but across the country as America reels from more racially motivated

killings. Donald Trump has called America and divided crime scene. Is

he the man to offer unity? We begin our report away

from the pomp and proceedure, on the dirt tracks of Trumbull

country. A Sunday afternoon spent bashing up

cars is a strangely, They call this Demolition DARby -

DURby, here - and it pulls in the mostly white crowds

from rural Ohio. You just take a regular

old American-made car and strip it down to the bare bones and you bring

it out here and you smash it and smash it until

there is nothing left. If it sounds like a metaphor

for what Donald Trump is doing to the Republican Party right now,

Democrats like Michael The convention begins today,

just a couple of It will probably be more of a wreck

than what you will see today! The Confederate flag,

a symbol of southern They will tell you it is about

pride, but it is a vestige of the country's civil war

and a reminder of the deep divisions Kyle here sees Donald

Trump as his Superman. And Superman, don't forget, fights

a never-ending battle for truth, I don't know much about

politics but I'll wing it! If you are an idiot

and you are screwing up America, he will tell you and

then will fix it. And, to be fair, America itself

is feeling pretty ANNOUNCER: Please give a warm

welcome to the chairman of the Republican National Committee -

Reince Priebus of Wisconsin. As the convention opened,

the committee chairman, Reince Priebus, welcomed

delegates with a brief Our nation grieves when we see

these awful killings. Will you join me in a moment

of silence? Outside, they find less

euphemistic ways of saying it. Donald Trump has looked

at the racial tension that has erupted in Baton Rouge, in Dallas,

in Ferguson and beyond, and called America

"a divided crime scene" - wilfully oblivious, perhaps,

of the effect his own language He points to Obama as the man

to blame for weakness and calls himself the candidate

for law and order. He is not helping to promote

dialogue between people. He is just trying to

promote more division. Do you think that racial tensions

in the country have got worse? I tell you what,

talking is over with. We want this and we want this,

do you know what I mean? What does that mean,

payback time is over? An eye for an eye and

a tooth for a tooth. The latest poll here for NBC gives

Donald Trump a stunning 0% support from black voters in Ohio,

a crucial electoral battleground that has picked the Presidential

winner the last 13 times. He is causing people who have

all this hate towards minorities and these other kinds of people that

aren't part of the majority, and everything he stands

for is causing them to rise up. Crime rates have actually declined

in recent years but Trump's invocation of law and order

and his message to the majority echoes another Republican leader

at a time of historic unrest. "The silent majority" was a phrase

first used by Nixon in 1960s to speak to those who didn't protest

the Vietnam War, but it quickly became a rallying call to white

conservatives amidst the black It appealed to those who felt left

behind, dispossessed by a perceived threat

to their way of life. And crucially - then, as now -

the language pitting minority Trump has adapted his slogan today

to "Make America Safe Again". And there will be plenty more

than happy to come For all those who worry

about the mud-flinging, there are plenty more

who appreciate his rhetoric At a time when few of those in power

seem to offer tangible solutions, they see a man unafraid to call it

as it is and think it is time that someone, somewhere came

to clear up the mess. Emily in Ohio and she will be

reporting from the convention throughout the week.

If you wanted to be proud of any modern British company,

you probably couldn't select a better one than ARM

It doesn't make anything, but it is the brains behind

the chips that power the smartphones we all buy; and in fact,

its chips are in many other devices, too.

It designs them and gets a few pence every time one is sold.

And fortunately for ARM, billions are sold each year.

The A in ARM, by the way, once stood for Acorn,

for those who remember those early days of Acorn Computers.

So should we worry that ARM may soon be part of a large Japanese group?

Here's our business editor, Helen Thomas.

You may not immediately recognise the name ARM Holdings,

but the UK's biggest technology company has a hand in almost

ARM's chip designs underpin the technology in about 95%

of the smartphones sold globally last year.

From its start in Cambridge with just 12 engineers in 1990,

ARM has grown at speed and its sales have nearly doubled in the past five

years and quadrupled over the past decade.

But the company makes only a tiny sliver of its revenues

Its biggest customers are overseas technology companies based

in places like the US, China and Taiwan.

That global dominance caught the eye of Japan's SoftBank, a telecoms

They're betting ?24 billion that ARM can replicate its dominance

in smartphones in what's called the Internet of Things -

connecting up physical devices from buildings and to household

appliances so they can talk to each other.

So, should SoftBank's interest be welcomed or is this another

example of a home-grown champion going overseas?

Theresa May has struck a cautious note on foreign takeovers

but today her new Chancellor of the Exchequer gave

The fact that a Japanese company, just three weeks after

the referendum decision, is prepared to make this kind

of commitment to the UK and commit to grow that kind

of business here in the UK, is a resounding endorsement

of the resilience of the British economy.

One of ARM's founders, at least, reckons it's too soon to say

whether a takeover by SoftBank should be mourned or celebrated.

To me, in this Internet of Things idea, there are things that ARM

is doing and things that SoftBank is doing and if you can put those

two ideas together and make them bigger and better and move

If you do it appallingly, it's the opposite of a win,

One source of comfort should be a series of SoftBank guarantees.

The Japanese company has pledged to double ARM's UK workforce over

And to keep its headquarters in Cambridge.

ARM's business isn't linked to the UK economy.

You could hardly find a more international business.

But SoftBank says it wants to invest, not cut,

and it wants to use this country as a base for innovation.

But this is the first time these kinds of legally enforceable

pledges have been used in a large UK takeover,

so who, in five years' time, is going to aggressively enforce

One concern is that UK companies may be snapped up by buyers taking

With the takeover of ARM, the UK-listed tech sector

is losing not just a limb, but its backbone.

The UK's latest crop of start-ups could face new challenges getting

to the head of the pack in global tech.

Hermann Hauser was one of the founders of ARM and joins us

Good evening. You said this is one of the saddest days of your life.

Let me push you on wire. The company have said that they will preserve

ARM in Cambridge, keep the management, doubling the UK

headcount, so why are you so sad about it being bought by the

Japanese? ARM has been the greatest achievement in my life and the

reason I'm sad, not just for myself but technology in Britain, the next

generation of the architecture of smartphones but more importantly the

upcoming architecture of the Internet of things, which is going

to be a wave that is much larger than the smartphone waves, will

ultimately be designed in Japan and not the UK. What did you think of

Philip Hammond's comments, you probably heard them, that this is a

vote of confidence in Britain after Brexit? He's putting a brave face on

the fact that we've lost the one remaining high technology company

that has a global footprints. 15 billion ARMs sold last year, a high

percentage of the phones and there is no other UK tech company that has

that kind of global reach. More importantly, ARM can be the key

building block of putting an industrial strategy together for the

UK in the Internet of things. Tell me, if you were designing policy, if

Philip Hammond or Greg Clark, the new industry Minister was sitting

with you, what would you say they should do? I'm not thinking you want

the government to decide who owns what. Generally people think there

is room for a market in corporate control, so what would you like the

government to do? I was delighted to hear Theresa May in her speech in

front of number ten saying that industrial strategy is something

that she will support. The Internet of things is just happening right

now. The basic rules about how we build on top of the basic hardware,

which is already all ARM -based, so we've almost all won that basis of

the building blocks, what is needed now is the higher layers, the cyber

Security and most importantly, who owns the data? What would you like

the government to do? Would you like them to veto it and save sorry, even

though the management say that you should be able to buy it,

shareholders don't want to stop it, the government should say that it

cannot be bought and sold by the Japanese? I think it's too late for

that. Theresa May might introduce something like a golden share, for

the really strategically important companies in the future but for ARM,

this is too late. But you would like such a system? Let's face it, many

other countries intervened more than we do. AstraZeneca, a good example,

Obama basically blocked it, we didn't. Astra Zeneca is one of those

key companies. They played the leadership role in Cambridge and ARM

could do it the same in the tech sector. Do you think that we are

selling the company to cheaply? If you had ?25 billion, would you say

that the Japanese are getting it to cheaply, I will make a bigger bid

for the company because it is worth more? Absolutely. I think ARM is at

the centre of the next generation of the next wave of computing. I hear

talk about the six waves of computing and every new brave is

bigger than the previous one. We are in the middle of the smartphone

waves but the next one, everything being connected and there is a

simple interface for these things which will be connected through

voice. This will be so much bigger than the smartphones and we have an

opportunity to define the basic architecture of it. But if the

Japanese are paying too little, why was the share price so much lower

until they made the offer? Well, because sadly there are very few

people who seek the opportunity in the Internet of things and have the

money to pay the price, the premium, which is good, but not fantastic.
