This is an important point and a great dilemma we will face

We are just leaving hard to talk, because Hillary Clinton is about to

speak for the first time since collapsing in New York. Letters

cross to North Carolina to hear what she has to say. -- letters cross.

Thank you. Thank you all. Hello everyone, it is great to be here at

Greensboro. It means so much to have mafia here

along with her wonderful daughter, Sarah, and her mother, Barbara. And

the story she told is really one that motivates me every day, because

it is kids like Sarah that led me to politics in the first place, to try

and make our country and our world better for them. So to see Sarah

grown-up and thriving is very special and your whole family

support means the world to me. Thank you Martha, Sarah and Barbara. I

have to say, it is great to be back on the campaign trail! As you may

know, I recently had a cough that turned out to be pneumonia. I tried

to power through it, but even I had to admit that maybe a few days of

rest would do me good and I am not great at taking it easy even under

ordinary circumstances, but with just two months to go until election

day, sitting at home was pretty much the last place I wanted to be. But

it turns out having a few days to myself was actually a gift. I talked

with some old friends, I spent time with our very sweet dogs, I did some

thinking. The campaign trail at doesn't really encourage reflection.

And it's important to sit with your thoughts every now and then. And

that did help me reconnect with what this whole campaign is about. People

are like me, we are lucky. When I am under the weather...

CROWD CHEERS. I just want to have a conversation and other people can

wave their arms and their signers, but I want you to think with me for

a minute. Think with me about how I certainly feel lucky when I'm under

the weather I can afford to take a few days. Millions of Americans

can't. They either go to work sick or they lose a pay cheque. Lots of

Americans still don't even have insurance or they do, but it is too

expensive for them to actually use, so they toss back some pills, they

drink orange juice and they hope the car for the virus goes away on its

own. Lots of working parents cannot afford childcare, which in many

states, cost as much as college tuition. Some of the millions of

parents, if they get sick, there is no back-up. They are on their own,

aren't they? That is a story for too many people still in America. When

illness strikes or an accident happens, you feel you are on your

own. If you lose your job, or can't afford college, you're on your own.

If your ageing parent starts needing more help and you don't know what to

do, you are on your own. Life events like these are catastrophic for some

families but mere bumps in the road for others. I have met so many

people living on a razor's edge, one illness away from losing their job,

one paycheque away from losing their home. And that goes against

everything we stand for as Americans. Because some things

should not come down to luck. Some things should be within reach for

everyone, no matter what. Like financial security, like

affordable health care, like the peace of mind that comes with

knowing that if something goes wrong, your family will be OK. And

above all, the knowledge that no matter what, your president is

fighting for you and will always have your back.

That is, right there, that's why I got into this race. I am running for

everyone working hard to support their families. Everyone who has

been knocked down but gets back up. The factory workers on their feet

all day and the nurses looking after patients all the nights. I'm running

for young people like so many of you here who dream of changing our world

for the better and for all the parents and grandparents supporting

those dreams, by dedicating every dollar they can spare to your

education. I'm running for the LGBT teenager here in North Carolina who

sees your Governor signed a bill legalising discrimination and

suddenly feels like a second-class citizen.

And if anyone wonders what the cost of discrimination is, just ask the

people and businesses of North Carolina. Look at what is happening

with the ACC. This is where bigotry at Leeds and we can't afford it, not

here, not anywhere else in America. I am running for women like Janel

Turner. Back in May of last year, she was diagnosed with breast

cancer. She went through nearly six months of very tough treatments.

Last October, she brought her eight-year-old daughter to one of

our rallies in Iowa. They made a huge sign that said 13 chemotherapy

yesterday, three more, hear me roar! Wouldn't you want to meet the woman

behind that sign? Well, I sure did. So we got talking and we stayed in

touch. She keeps promising me she will see me at the inauguration and

I tell her, I'll keep working together and she had better be there

too. I'm running for her and all the mothers and fathers trying to get

and stay healthy so they can be there for their kids. But perhaps

most of all, I'm running for those kids. Standing up for children has

been the work of my life. As a lawyer with the children's defence

fund, as first lady, in Arkansas, in the White House, as a Senator, I

have fought for kids housed in a jolt jails, kids who are neglected

and abused, kids who could not get health insurance because of

pre-existing conditions, kids with disabilities so they could go to

school. You heard today from someone I've known for a long time, now

grown-up and lovely young woman. I learned from my family and my

Methodist faith that we are each called to do all the good we can

fall the people we can, for however long we can. Firmly, that means

making sure all our children have the chance to live up to their

God-given potential is. -- potentials. So when I meet a little

girl in Nevada, terrified her parents will be defaulted --

deported, it hits me. When I meet a boy in Michigan who can't drink the

water at home or in a school because it is poisoned with lead, that gets

me going. All I want to do is get to work on making things better for

them. That is why I care so much by national security, too. I want is to

give our kids a safer world. To me, that means a world with strong

allies, more friends, fewer enemies and fewer nuclear weapons.

CROWD CHEERS. It also means a leading the fight against climate

change so we can leave our kids a healthy planet. My opponent in this

race disagrees with me on every one of these fronts. Just a few days

ago, he said that if another country's troops taunted ours, not

fired at them, but taunted them, just tournaments, he would respond

by blowing them out of the water. He would start a war over that. That is

just one more reason, my friends, why the stakes in this election are

as high as any in our lifetimes. I've been involved in politics in

one way or another for many years. It is not an easy business. It can

get rough and I've built up some defences. When it comes to public

service, I'm better at the service part than the public bar, but this

is why I do it and this is who I am in it for. Make life better for

children and families. And that is what this race has always been about

for me. Well, now we are in final stretch. There are just 54 days

until election day. Just 54 days until the most consequential vote of

our lifetimes. And just -- in a just a little more than a month -- a

month until the early voting starts in North Carolina. Let us make these

days count, particularly here. Because you know what your governor

and legislature tried to do, make it harder for young people to vote,

harder for people of colour, harder for people with disabilities, harder

for the elderly. They can't be any more motivation than that to make

sure every young person, every person of colour, every person with

a disability, every older person turns out and oppose. -- turns out

and votes. So let us tune out the chatter and nonstop analysis that

often doesn't have much to do with what the next president has to do.

To create good jobs, to create opportunity and make it possible for

every young person to go to college or get the skills you need for the

jobs of the future. Let us talk about what really matters. Here is

my promise to you. I will close my campaign the way I began my career,

and the way I will serve as your president should be you give me that

great honour. It will be focused on opportunities for kids and fairness

for families. Next week I will go to Philadelphia to talk about

challenges facing our young people, in Florida to focus on building an

economy that welcomes everyone's contributions, including people with

disabilities, then I will be back here in North Carolina to meet with

more working families, from now until November eight, everywhere I

go, I'm going to talk about my ideas for our country. My campaign has

rolled out detailed plans in 38 different policy areas, yes,

somebody actually counted everything from reining in a Wall Street to

creating good paying jobs to supporting people with autism. You

see, I have this old-fashioned notion that if you are running for

president, you should say what you plan to do, how you will get it done

and how you're going to pay for it. You could read it all on my website,

Hillary Clinton .com. We've even put it in a new book called Stronger

Together. Get a copy, because it tells you everything Tim Cain and I

intend to do. Like a lot of women, I have a tendency to over prepare. I

sweat the details, whether we are talking about the exact level of

lead in the water in Flint, or have a North Carolina kids are in early

enrichment programmes or the precise interest rate on your student loan,

right down to the decimal. Because it is not a detail if it is your

kid. Is not the detail that is your family, is a big deal. And it should

be a big deal to your president. Now, I confess, I will never be the

show and my opponent is, and that's OK with me. -- the show man. Look at

the show he put on today. But I am going to deliver for you and your

family just like I did for Sarah, all those years ago, with the

children's health insurance programme by gave her the chance to

be the extraordinary young woman she is. And I'll tell you something

else. People accuse me of all kind of things, you've probably seen

that. But nobody ever accuses me of quitting. And I will never give up,

I will never walk away, no matter how tough the going gets. I'm

actually asking Americans to hold me accountable for my ideas and hold my

opponent accountable for his. We don't need a president who says the

minimum wage is too high, we need a president who knows that Americans

deserve a raise to get to where they need. We do not need a president who

wants to take away people's health coverage, we need a president who

wants everyone to have quality, affordable health care. And we don't

need a president apparently things only married people deserve paid

leave and only mothers ever stay at home the kids. We don't need someone

who rushes out a half baked plan, just weeks before an election after

decades of ignoring or putting down working mothers. We need a president

who has spent years fighting for these issues and has a plan to

support all families in all their various shapes. Ask yourself, which

candidate you can count on to be on your side, respect your family,

stand up and fight for you and your kids. CROWD CHEERS.

That is who you should vote for November the 8th, because as

Michelle Obama said in her fabulous speech at the Democratic convention,

when we go to the polls this November, the real choice is between

Democrat or Republican, it is about who will have the power to shape our

children for the next four years of their lives. It is also about the

kind of country we want to be and what they want to leave behind for

future generations. People have to decide, are we going to make our

economy work for everyone, or just those at the top. Are we going to

bring people together or pit Americans against each other and rip

our country apart? Are we going to work with our allies to keep us

safe, or are we going to put a loose cannon in charge who would rest

everything generations have worked hard to build. Now, I have a lot of

confidence in the American people and in our country. My opponent

keeps running us down at Saint we are weak, disasters, and

embarrassments. Every time he says things like that, I think about

Janel and her strength in the face cancer. Or Martha and Sarah in the

face of their health challenges and that little boy in Flint who gets up

every day and goes to school even though he can't drink the water.

See, my opponent has America all wrong. There's nothing we can't do

when we come together as one nation, set big goals and pursue them. And

the American dream, it is big enough for everyone to share in its

promise. So if you believe the minimum wage should be a living

wage, that no one who works full-time should not raise their

family in poverty, join us. If you believe every man, woman and child

in America have the right to affordable health care and women

should be free to make our own health decisions, join us. If you

believe you are -- you're working mother, wife, sister or daughter

deserves equal pay, then join us. Get involved in these last 55 days.

Go to my website or text Joy to 24 746. We need volunteers here in

North Carolina and we can't do this without you. And remember, the

presidential race is not the only one this fall. We have a lot of

important state-wide races so let us come together and send Deborah Ross

to represent people in the Senate. Starting on October 20, you can

register and vote early at the same time. At any one stop early voting

site in your county. The heat is on. Spread the word. Tell your friends,

family, neighbours if you share our vision for America's future. If you

do, come and help us shape it, we don't have a minutes to lose. We

have some of the blessings, now it is our job to deliver on those and

to make sure... Is the Outside Source. Bringing you

Hillary Clinton was like -- speech. Let that be the message. Let that be

the mission. Fight for you, children, families. Let's make

America all that it should be. God bless.

Hillary Clinton, back on the campaign trail. She knew that she

was going to be under scrutiny, after nearly collapsing at the 9/11

event on Sunday. So much speculation about her health. She had to show

that she is capable of continuing the campaign, potentially being a

future president, that speech about 20 minutes long. Seems to be well

again. We can go to Washington. First of all... She knew that she

had to give the speech of her campaign? And had to look and sound

well. Well groomed. But despite that, I think she managed to give

the impression of somebody recovering, handled it well at the

top of the speech, that is going to have solicited some sympathy,

speaking about pneumonia, spending time at home with her sweet dogs!

Dog lovers will like that! And also, talking about how lucky it made her

feel, taking time off, because she had been sick. As she said that so

many millions of Americans cannot do that, because they do not have

health care, or worried they could get fired. The personal story,

coming round to the larger ambitions, the plight of Americans.

How much do you think that Hillary Clinton campaign have learned, about

giving out more information? It is such a good question. I was thinking

before this, this would have been such a good moment for Hillary

Clinton to come out, and advocate full disclosure. Possibly disclosing

medical records, she has under two months until the election, and one

of the biggest electoral stumbling blocks, some people do not trust

her. They do not think that she has been transparent. They think she has

a hidden agenda. This would have been a great day, to say she handled

it badly, everything about my medical records, every exam that you

could want. I think that could have been a turning point. Transparency

has been a problem. But they have not done that. She actually referred

in that speech to Donald Trump, the showman she called him, going on

television and producing thin medical records. Not substantial. I

think that she could have used this to her advantage, but the need for

privacy, control, and an element of secrecy, it is almost impossible for

her. You mentioned, Donald Trump going on this talk show. Weekend

give you what he said. 6'3. 236 pounds. I am thinking your BMI is

high? Probably close to high? Yes. How doctors given you a hard time? I

think that I could lose some weight. I have always been this way. But one

thing, I would like to lose weight. It is tough because of how I live. I

would like to drop 15, 20 pounds. Do you think that appearance has got

the reaction that the Donald, campaign had hoped for? Generally

speaking, medical records, are big, fat documents with every blood test,

and possible illness. This was thin. It was good television. He said,

shall I release them? The host said yes. He has been the master of TV.

Obviously, obesity is a problem at America, not many people are going

to give sympathy for that, he also has lower cholesterol drugs, but

nothing staggering. Politically, it was pretty neutral. And after these

strange few days, where are we? Polls so tight? Polls are

tightening! We should be looking at how they have been moving. We have

had a series this week, showing Donald Trump nationally, and some of

the critical states, Ohio and Florida, overtaking Hillary Clinton,

the momentum seems to be in Donald Trump's favour. Hillary Clinton has

had a bad few weeks, with emails and health issues, Donald Trump has been

sticking to autocue. He has not said anything controversial over the last

couple of weeks. I think we seen that, with these numbers. -- are

seeing that. Aid not reaching the places it is needed in Syria. We

tend take a look at this. UN aid officials have told the BBC a convoy

of 20 trucks still waiting for clearance. Hundreds of thousands of

people have been under siege. The eastern part of the city, held by

rebels, some reports that both of the sides have withdrawn from a

highway, that can be used as a supply route for residents. The

United Nations Secretary General has been speaking about what has been

holding up the dollar 30 -- delivery of aid. All of the humanitarian

workers, ready to move. Waiting at the border. But unfortunately

shelling began. Even though we have had the reassurances from the Syrian

government, and armed groups, trucks cannot move. Who is doing the

shelling? It is not clear. I am urging them to stop as soon as

possible. When you have the ceasefire, it should be implemented

so that during the time the United Nations can deliver aid to hard to

reach areas. The Middle East editor still in a little. -- Aleppo. This

is the latest report. This is what cooking for 10,000 people looks

like. This kitchen, boiling hot, it has been organised by a Catholic

charity. It is given to some of the neediest people, in the government

controlled west. Bottle it is clearer that the needs in the west

are not as much as the east. They are going to put all of this into

containers, food prices 300% higher. That is deliberate from the

government, putting pressure on the population. The ease of the city

really needs the humanitarian aid. But if the ceasefire cannot deliver

that, it is going to be in trouble. If that does not happen, they could

think, what is the point of continuing? The United Nations want

to set up similar operations, but that is some of -- easier said than

done. The reason why we have been so short of food, because of the

deliberate tactics from the Syrian government. They have besieged the

area. Deliberately squeezing the population, putting pressure on the

people, and the armed groups. It is an ancient tactic, and it works.

Elsewhere... Groups of rebels have surrendered. I think that is what

they have been trying to do. Getting this humanitarian aid in, not just

needs, a question of politics. We also brought you news, of a leak of

details from high profile athletes. Wada tweeted this. Confirming an

attack from Russian espionage. Our sports correspondent has

outlined how many Apple leads have been involved. 29, eight different

countries, it includes Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome. A lot of

this relates to TUEs. Therapeutic use exemption, substances that have

normally been banned, but special dispensation to use, these athletes

have done nothing wrong. The difference between what Russian

athletes have been accused of, and this, this was fully transparent?

Authorised by the authorities? In the past it has been abused, Lance

Armstrong, using TUEs to cover up actual doping. But these days, it is

difficult to get one of these TUEs. And what have some of the athletes

said about this? Almost a so what attitude. Chris Froome released a

statement. He said that he has openly discussed TUEs with the

media. In nine years, I have twice required a TUE for exasperated

asthma. And Petra Kvitova, releasing this is the same revolution, as

saying she has won Wimbledon. And the people behind this, it is

thought to the Russian hackers? But we do not know if they have any

connection with the state? Kremlin have obviously denied this, but Wada

said this is criminal activity. Team GB said to athletes you could be at

risk. The hacking group said they will keep going. Still to come, as

Russia approaches parliamentary elections, the BBC has found some of

President Putin's biggest fans. The Bank of England has said that the

short-term economic impact of Brexit is not as bad as was field. --

feared. Our business editor explains why they are optimistic. We have had

strong employment figures, strong retail, people spending as the sun

has been shining, and people spending on housing. What has

happened, some significant changes since the referendum, supporting the

economy. The Bank of England cutting interest rates, after the

referendum, to 0.25%. Mortgages came down. We have not actually left the

EU yet, sterling down in value. Exports cheaper. This is Outside

Source. Hillary Clinton has got back on the campaign trail, making her

first public appearance at North Carolina, after falling ill at the

weekend. Emergency services at the Chinese south eastern province

clearing debris after the recent typhoon. It is the most powerful

storm, since 1949. An explosion on board a tourist boat off Bali has

killed two people, injured 13. Investigators have not yet

determined the cause, but it points towards an accident. China has

launched a second experimental space station. It blasted off from the

desert. The, two astronauts are going to go to the station, to carry

out research. China wants a manned station by 2022. Time for business.

Donald Trump has been at the New York economic club, hoping to win

over economic players. He has said that his policies would lead to a 4%

growth in the US economy. The country has not seen that for over a

decade, he said he is going to help the millions of Americans who have

been left on the sidelines. My plan will erase the truth that people

flourish under a minimum government burden, and tap into the potential

of workers. 92 million Americans on the sidelines, out of work, not part

of the economy. It is a silent nation of jobless Americans. How di

d the speech go down? Certainly, the audience appreciated some elements.

It was full of prominent people from the financial community. When he was

talking about cutting the corporate tax rate, from 40% to 15%, that came

with cheers. Also, cutting down on regulation, trying to make it easier

for people to do business. And cutting the difficulties, that arise

when filing taxes, loopholes, he wants to try to make that run

smoothly. That said, some of the things that Wall St may not like,

the protectionism rhetoric. And his economic ambitions, do figures add

up? It is always the conversation here. No matter who you speak to,

which candidate, no candidate is going to be able to put the plan as

is, through Congress. That is just not how it works here. It is perhaps

possible, that the plan presented by Donald Trump could potentially

result in 4% growth, but never become reality as is. It is just not

the nature of politics in the United States. Thank you. After decades of

delays, the British government has finally given the go-ahead for a new

nuclear power station. It is going to be on the Somerset coast, we can

show you exactly where. An expansion on the existing Hinkley Point

project. It is going to be built by EDF, but a third of the cost will be

met by China. It is a project on a huge deal, providing 60% of the

country's electricity. It is going to create 26,000 jobs. But it has

been on hold for weeks. Today, the Business Secretary confounded with

go-ahead, and new safeguards. This is going to allow the United Kingdom

government to take a consistent approach, of infrastructure,

including nuclear energy for the future. These changes mean that

while the native kingdom is going to remain one of the most open

economies, direct investment always works in the best interests. The

French energy giant EDF has agreed to fund the project, but Chinese

investors want to bring their own technology. Today, it announced new

safeguards, that would prevent the sale of the controlling stake

without prior agreement. And the government is going to take a

special share, about control and it is going to review the enterprise

act. Reviewing the scrutiny of foreign ownership. EDF welcomed the

news. I want to say how delighted I am, that the government has taken

this decision. It is good news for the customers, big boost for the UK,

great step in the fight against climate change. But some have said

that Hinkley Point may never even be built. Other nuclear plants are

years behind schedule, and some the one that consumers are going to pay

the price. EDF will receive a guaranteed amount from what Hinkley

Point would produce. And critics have said that they have got other

avenues, wind power, rather than outdated technology. What we need to

be doing, investing in renewables, wind, already cheaper than Hinkley

Point, investing in solar, and that together with batteries. They could

be getting revenues, as well as bills. The government intervention

has raised some eyebrows, but this is going to provide a huge boost to

the economy of south west England, and Britain entering a new nuclear

era. We started the programme with Hillary Clinton. She has returned to

the campaign trail. We can bring you some of what she said. As you may

know... I recently had a cough that turned out to be pneumonia. I tried

to power through. But even I realised that a few days of rest

would do me good. I am not good at taking it easy, even under normal

circumstances, but with two months until election day... Sitting at

home was the last place I wanted to be! But it turns out, having a few

days to myself was a gift. I was talking to some old friends, spent

time with our sweet dogs, the campaign trail does not encourage

reflection, it is important to sit with your thoughts and that has

helped me reconnect with what this campaign is about. That was Hillary

Clinton, speaking shortly from North Carolina. More to come, the weather

next. Good evening. This week has already

brought us the most powerful typhoon, getting close to Taiwan,

south-east China, and the next typhoon is also going
