:00:20. > :00:23.Some passengers in the wreckage had to escape through the windows.
:00:24. > :00:25.People who were able to walk away described the high speed
:00:26. > :00:30.of the train in the moments before it crashed.
:00:31. > :00:34.When we felt the train slamming or sliding into the station,
:00:35. > :00:38.we just wanted to make sure that everyone we could help was standing
:00:39. > :00:42.on their feet or that we could get them out of harm's way.
:00:43. > :00:45.Post-Brexit can Britain have its cake and eat it too?
:00:46. > :00:47.Today, the International Trade Secretary says yes,
:00:48. > :00:53.but the Italian Prime Minister tells the BBC it's impossible.
:00:54. > :00:58.It will be impossible to give to British people more rights

:01:46. > :01:51.Witnesses say the train came hurtling into the station
:01:52. > :01:54.in Hoboken, New Jersey, went up over the blocks at the end
:01:55. > :02:00.of the track and hit a concrete-and-steel bumper.
:02:01. > :02:03.Hoboken is here, just across the Hudson River
:02:04. > :02:07.from Manhattan and is a terminus for many trains taking
:02:08. > :02:33.Well, we have heard from the governors of New York and New Jersey
:02:34. > :02:37.that the engineer of the train is in critical condition in hospital, but
:02:38. > :02:42.we are told he is co-operating with authorities. He is really going to
:02:43. > :02:47.be a key part of this puzzle into exactly what happened when the train
:02:48. > :02:53.sped through, pummelling into the station here in Hoboken without
:02:54. > :02:58.decelerating its speed at all, so we're waiting to see when they do
:02:59. > :03:02.their investigation, they are going to be on-site doing an
:03:03. > :03:06.investigation, and we will be very interested to see in the next few
:03:07. > :03:10.days or weeks, however long it takes for that investigation to conclude,
:03:11. > :03:16.just what role the driver had in this if any, and also the state of
:03:17. > :03:18.the train and its mechanics. Do stay with us.
:03:19. > :03:21.Let's hear from one of the passengers who was on the train.
:03:22. > :03:24.When we came into Hoboken, it slowed down as we were coming
:03:25. > :03:29.It was like a big crash and then everything from the ceiling
:03:30. > :03:40.I don't think anybody in the car that I was in...
:03:41. > :03:44.I think people got some head injuries from some stuff
:03:45. > :03:48.falling from the ceiling, but I think the train hit people
:03:49. > :03:51.in the Hoboken terminal that were standing waiting
:03:52. > :04:04.Neda, what have you heard from other passengers?
:04:05. > :04:12.The BBC has spoken to several people. One man was actually in the
:04:13. > :04:15.first car, the car that was in the lead, basically, hitting into the
:04:16. > :04:21.train station. He said people were screaming, there was a pool of blood
:04:22. > :04:24.on the floor of the car, bloody injuries and also people bruised and
:04:25. > :04:29.injured. He was able to just leave the train. Luckily he didn't have
:04:30. > :04:34.any severe injuries. But we have heard people saying there was a lot
:04:35. > :04:38.of chaos, screaming and confusion as to what had happened exactly. As we
:04:39. > :04:41.have heard from the governors of New York and New Jersey, the person who
:04:42. > :04:47.died was not on the train but was on the concourse, the platform, and was
:04:48. > :04:51.hit from debris that had fallen. So it's been a very chaotic morning
:04:52. > :04:57.here. Even the responders going in to help those who were injured were
:04:58. > :05:02.wary of the structural damage in the train station with it being unsafe.
:05:03. > :05:05.We have heard from several eyewitnesses on the train, all of
:05:06. > :05:07.them trying to describe the chaotic scenes.
:05:08. > :05:10.Here's the account of one person who tried to help at the station.
:05:11. > :05:13.The phrase I would use is like, "Oh, my God", so I'm
:05:14. > :05:15.a minister so that's all I can think of,
:05:16. > :05:18.just "Oh, my God", because what happened is that, when it happened,
:05:19. > :05:21.it was so shocking that people just ran and stared at first.
:05:22. > :05:22.You just don't believe that happened.
:05:23. > :05:25.And then you've got to wake up and realise, oh,
:05:26. > :05:30.Because when I ran up, I looked and it was like,
:05:31. > :05:33.I saw a guy bleeding from the head, then I saw another, then I saw
:05:34. > :05:37.I didn't even see many bodies until I ran over there and then
:05:38. > :05:40.I saw people getting up and getting helped up, bleeding
:05:41. > :05:46.And questions are being asked about train control measures.
:05:47. > :05:55.Was there technology that could have stopped this happening?
:05:56. > :06:02.Absolutely. And this was the key question posed to authorities here,
:06:03. > :06:07.who have said they don't want to speculate yet on the cause and are
:06:08. > :06:11.waiting till the investigation has concluded, but even still, the key
:06:12. > :06:15.question is, why wasn't a fail-safe mechanism in place in the train, so
:06:16. > :06:21.that despite it going at such a high speed, this would have stopped it
:06:22. > :06:24.automatically? This is something federal authorities have wanted to
:06:25. > :06:28.have in place for many years. We know this mechanism has been delayed
:06:29. > :06:32.again and again to be installed on these trains, so obviously that was
:06:33. > :06:35.one of the first things people pointed to. So despite some of the
:06:36. > :06:42.causes that have led to this, would that mechanism not have saved
:06:43. > :06:45.passengers from going through this ordeal? And I think when the
:06:46. > :06:50.investigation comes out, that will be one of the key possible findings
:06:51. > :06:55.as well. Thank you very much. We're just going to show you she is not
:06:56. > :06:57.the only person talking about the technology. Quite a lot of tweets on
:06:58. > :07:14.social media about this very theme. So clearly that will be part of the
:07:15. > :07:16.conversation after this very dramatic train crash.
:07:17. > :07:22.The Indian Army says it launched strikes against suspected militants
:07:23. > :07:27.along the de facto border with Pakistan in Kashmir.
:07:28. > :07:31.Both India and Pakistan claim Kashmir in its entirety but each
:07:32. > :07:37.You may know this is a dispute that's been running for decades
:07:38. > :07:40.and has seen an increase in tension in recent weeks.
:07:41. > :07:42.Indian authorities say their aim was to prevent attacks being planned
:07:43. > :08:01.Significant casualties have been caused to the terrorists and those
:08:02. > :08:07.trying to support them. The operations aimed at neutralising the
:08:08. > :08:08.terrorists have since ceased. We do not have any plans for further
:08:09. > :08:12.continuation of the operations. Pakistan has given a very
:08:13. > :08:26.different account of events. Former BBC India correspondent
:08:27. > :08:31.Andrew Whitehead spoke to me The situation is exceptionally
:08:32. > :08:35.tense, it's probably as bad as it's been for ten or 15 years,
:08:36. > :08:38.and I think there's a real danger A difficult question,
:08:39. > :08:41.I know, but why so tense now? Because this is a division,
:08:42. > :08:45.a conflict that's gone on, at least a war of
:08:46. > :08:48.words, for decades. Well, there's been a lot
:08:49. > :08:50.of turbulence within Clashes between Indian security
:08:51. > :08:53.forces and protesters, unarmed protesters,
:08:54. > :08:55.largely throwing stones. Then about ten days ago,
:08:56. > :09:00.there was a major attack 18 Indian soldiers were killed
:09:01. > :09:06.and India believes that Pakistan And it's in response to that that
:09:07. > :09:13.India has claimed it has taken out this surgical response
:09:14. > :09:16.across the line. For our viewers across the world,
:09:17. > :09:20.they may be thinking, you've got two nuclear-armed states
:09:21. > :09:22.here, getting very angry. I think there is every sign that
:09:23. > :09:32.both India and Pakistan are fairly Both are keenly aware that both
:09:33. > :09:41.countries have nuclear arsenals. But when you do have clashes
:09:42. > :09:44.and clearly soldiers dying, perhaps on both sides of the line,
:09:45. > :09:47.then there is always the danger When is the last time
:09:48. > :09:51.there were any serious talks Well, it depends what you mean
:09:52. > :09:56.by serious negotiations in Kashmir. Some would say it's been decades
:09:57. > :09:58.since there were At the moment, there's no real
:09:59. > :10:04.sign of talks either between India and Pakistan,
:10:05. > :10:06.there have been some contacts, but not real talks, nor indeed any
:10:07. > :10:10.sign of talks between the Indian government and the separatists
:10:11. > :10:13.within Kashmir, who want the Kashmir Valley in particular
:10:14. > :10:15.to become independent It's difficult to say how much
:10:16. > :10:21.support they have but there's certainly a strong strand of opinion
:10:22. > :10:24.in Indian Kashmir that wants Kashmir Can the UK have its cake and eat it,
:10:25. > :10:31.by keeping open trade with the European Union,
:10:32. > :10:34.even as it leaves the EU and shuts Well, today Liam Fox,
:10:35. > :10:43.the new International He declared that trade
:10:44. > :10:48.with the EU can be "at least as free" as it is now,
:10:49. > :10:50.even without the free movement But Italian Prime Minister Matteo
:10:51. > :10:54.Renzi told the BBC that Britain just can't have full access to the single
:10:55. > :11:11.European market on those terms. Personally, I will be very ready to
:11:12. > :11:14.work with Theresa May and other colleagues to support this very
:11:15. > :11:21.difficult process, because it is the first time, so it's not easy. There
:11:22. > :11:28.is the need to sort as soon as possible the problem of the UK
:11:29. > :11:35.because we have talked for the last two years about Brexit, since the
:11:36. > :11:38.first month of 2015 up to today. We have discussed a lot of times about
:11:39. > :11:41.Brexit so now it is time to solve the question. That was the view from
:11:42. > :11:43.Italy. The British International Trade
:11:44. > :11:45.Secretary says he's being realistic because it's in the interests
:11:46. > :11:48.of both the UK and the EU for the terms of their trading
:11:49. > :12:00.relationship to remain as open We are leaving the EU. We are not
:12:01. > :12:05.leaving Europe. And we're ready to take our place in an open, liberal
:12:06. > :12:11.and competitive globalised environment. Flexibility and agility
:12:12. > :12:17.will be key to success in the globalised Europe. Where we can
:12:18. > :12:21.trade at any time with any market that is functionally similar without
:12:22. > :12:25.it having to be geographically approximate.
:12:26. > :12:27.Rob Watson, our UK political correspondent,
:12:28. > :12:31.unravelled the the different narratives we're hearing.
:12:32. > :12:38.I'm going to give you what I would like to think is a somewhat crude,
:12:39. > :12:41.straight talking but accurate summary of where we are.
:12:42. > :12:45.Essentially, Britain is saying, we want all the things that we love
:12:46. > :12:49.about the European Union in the future, such as free trade and being
:12:50. > :12:53.good mates, but we don't want the stuff we don't like, such as mass
:12:54. > :12:57.immigration and paying EU membership. The EU response has
:12:58. > :13:00.been, rather generally, we are sorry you're going, we still want to be
:13:01. > :13:04.mates but you've got to be kidding thinking you will get a deal that
:13:05. > :13:08.leaves you better off out! And another couple of quick points about
:13:09. > :13:12.where we stand - is the UK Government does have a coherent
:13:13. > :13:19.vision of Forte Post Brexit Britain looks like, they are certainly not
:13:20. > :13:25.letting know what it looks like! Theresa May didn't want us to leave.
:13:26. > :13:28.So how is it going down? The ordinary voters are being remarkably
:13:29. > :13:33.patient about it but a lot of the key groups and sectors who wanted
:13:34. > :13:38.Britain to remain, such as here in Oxford, for example, the university,
:13:39. > :13:43.or big business in general, they are thinking, crikey, we would like some
:13:44. > :13:48.answers sooner rather than later. And the worst thing for educational
:13:49. > :13:53.institutions or businesses wanting investment is the uncertainty that
:13:54. > :13:57.could go on for years? Absolutely. Question everybody is asking
:13:58. > :14:03.themselves in the UK is whether you trigger Article 50, and whether that
:14:04. > :14:07.is two years before we leave, and the betting that Theresa May will
:14:08. > :14:11.want to do it earlier, but I go back to that point that it is becoming
:14:12. > :14:14.clearer to everybody that the Government doesn't have a really
:14:15. > :14:19.detailed plan yet. It is very much feeling its way as it goes along,
:14:20. > :14:22.and what you are seeing from our European partners is that they are
:14:23. > :14:31.sitting back and, let's face it, they are still rather cross with the
:14:32. > :14:34.UK. They are saying, look, when you figure out what you want, please
:14:35. > :14:36.come and let us know. Just to throw something back at you. You don't
:14:37. > :14:40.reveal your hand when you are a poker player, do you? And it could
:14:41. > :14:46.be that the ministers know very well what their strategy is but they
:14:47. > :14:49.don't want it to play out on 24-hour news? Well, if they do have a
:14:50. > :14:53.strategy, they certainly aren't sharing it, and there may be
:14:54. > :14:59.elements you don't want to reveal, not revealing your hand, but also an
:15:00. > :15:03.element of making it up as we go along, because you have to remind
:15:04. > :15:10.yourself, Britain has never taken such a step like this in 40 years.
:15:11. > :15:13.It is one of the biggest diplomatic, security and political moves we've
:15:14. > :15:17.ever made, and the idea it was going to be done and dusted in a few
:15:18. > :15:21.months with everybody patting us on the back was always for the birds!
:15:22. > :15:24.Still to come, Kenya is using Chinese money to lay new tracks,

:15:51. > :15:54.Prime Minister Theresa May, who set up the inquiry
:15:55. > :15:59.when she was Home Secretary, said it was important
:16:00. > :16:12.The current Home Secretary has made clear that the original terms of
:16:13. > :16:16.reference were the right ones and I think that is important. But we
:16:17. > :16:20.should always remember why it is that the inquiry was set up in the
:16:21. > :16:24.first place, and when those terms of reference were set, they were agreed
:16:25. > :16:29.with victims and survivors, and it is those people who are at the part
:16:30. > :16:33.of -- heart of this inquiry. For too many years, too many people have
:16:34. > :16:34.been raising their voice, saying what has happened to them, and
:16:35. > :16:45.people have not been listening. This is Outside Source live
:16:46. > :16:48.from the BBC newsroom. Our lead story is one person has

:18:16. > :18:20.of Cambridge's Institute of Criminology, followed 2,000
:18:21. > :18:35.officers in the Britain and America. We believe that the camera has an
:18:36. > :18:39.effect on the behaviour of officers and the people they interact with,
:18:40. > :18:44.and it seems that once the camera is on, people change the way that they
:18:45. > :18:47.behave, and it seems it is contagious, because not only do the
:18:48. > :18:54.complaints go down, but the officers -- with the officers with the
:18:55. > :18:54.cameras, but it also went down for officers who didn't have the
:18:55. > :18:57.cameras. More than 16 million
:18:58. > :19:02.people here in the UK have That's according to a study
:19:03. > :19:08.by the Money Advice Service. In these five areas of the country,
:19:09. > :19:13.Northern Ireland, the West Midlands, Yorkshire and Humber,
:19:14. > :19:16.North East England and Wales, more than half the adult

:19:35. > :19:38.roughly ?27,000, so this figure of ?100 is ready quite know. What the
:19:39. > :19:42.report is saying is that four in ten UK adults struggle to put that away,
:19:43. > :19:49.and in fact in some parts that rises to 50%, so we're talking about 17
:19:50. > :19:53.million people in the UK who aren't able to put away and don't have
:19:54. > :19:58.savings of more than ?100. And when you look at the map for this study,
:19:59. > :20:05.there does seem to be something of a North-south divide, with London
:20:06. > :20:09.moving away? That's right. This report broke the figures down into
:20:10. > :20:12.regions and some regions fared worse than others. So the north-east of
:20:13. > :20:18.England, Yorkshire and Humber, Northern Ireland, Wales - more than
:20:19. > :20:23.these -- these areas have more than 50% of people who didn't have more
:20:24. > :20:26.than ?100 of savings. In the South things fared better but the message
:20:27. > :20:31.coming out is there are a lot of people who don't have much savings.

:22:50. > :22:51.If you assume they're nearly all recycled, you're wrong.
:22:52. > :22:53.Billions of them are thrown away each year.
:22:54. > :23:02.So a campaign group has launched this initiative today.
:23:03. > :23:07.It's what they call a "cupifesto", calling on drinks retailers
:23:08. > :23:09.and politicians to encourage us to get reusable cups.
:23:10. > :23:21.One suggestion is to introduce a surcharge for takeaway cups.

:23:32. > :23:36.Our Africa correspondent Alastair Leithead sent this report.
:23:37. > :23:45.For hundreds of miles, the lines are being laid, through the Savannah to

:23:50. > :23:54.with billions of borrowed Chinese money which will have to be paid

:24:07. > :24:12.the railway there, the park becomes real estate, and they will do
:24:13. > :24:16.whatever they want to do with it. I've seen it elsewhere. I've seen
:24:17. > :24:21.people abuse public resources in this country. Nairobi is the world's
