From here in the world's newsroom, we send out correspondents | :00:00. | :00:24. | |
to bring you the best stories from across the globe. | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
refugees in their own land. | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
We report from inside Syria, meeting the Syrian families | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
displaced by war, struggling to survive. | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
This is a party that has gone very flat for Donald Trump. | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
Trump gets trumped, and a close call for Clinton. | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
Jon Sopel analyses the results of America's first electoral | :00:48. | :00:49. | |

And rush-hour, Chinese style - we join thousands of migrants | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
stranded at a train station, trying to get home for Chinese new year. | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
It's little wonder that some migrant workers may have decided | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
They work long hours a long way from home, | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
and have to face this kind of travel chaos every year. | :01:13. | :01:25. | |
As the conflict in Syria escalates, the humanitarian situation remains | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
dire. Millions have fled the country, and for those who remain, | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
it is a struggle to survive. The UN estimates that the number of | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
internally displaced people in Syria is more than 6.5 million, and | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
Damascus houses the second-largest number of them after Aleppo in the | :01:45. | :01:52. | |
north. We but given access to camps in eastern Damascus to meet the | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
people living like refugees in their own country. | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
It is a and dirty place to play, just a stone 's throw from a war | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
battered neighbourhood on the eastern edge of Damascus. These | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
children take us into the unfinished building they call home. We are told | :02:13. | :02:23. | |
there are about 25 families living here. Most of them have been | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
displaced several times, and they actually have to pay rent to live | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
here, even though conditions, as you can see, are very bad. Electricity | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
is a luxury, perhaps three hours a day if they are lucky. Muhammad | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
lives this woman lives here with her husband and five children. | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
TRANSLATION: We used to live in dignity in our own houses. Now we | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
are named after charities, because we lost everything. We escaped only | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
with the clothes we were wearing. Not all the displaced lives like | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
this. We went to the western side of the city to a government run | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
shelter. Before the war, this was going to be a school, but it never | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
happened. As soon as the displacement crisis began, the | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
government decides to turn it into a temporary shelter. There are | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
currently about 90 families here, but the number keeps changing | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
because people come here as a first step and leave as soon as they find | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
somewhere else to stay. It is clean, and aid is close at hand. But | :03:30. | :03:38. | |
government and charity hand-outs don't make up for the loss of | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
livelihood. Before the war, Abu was a prosperous man with a large | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
family. Now, he has lost almost everything. TRANSLATION: Mohammed, | :03:47. | :03:58. | |
my 19-year-old son, was killed first. 43 days later, my second son, | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
Khaled, died. In 14 months, I lost four sons. Back at the flat, a girl | :04:06. | :04:16. | |
gets a lesson from her big sister. Despite their displacement, the | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
girls still get an education. More importantly, their family is intact. | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
But they still live on edge. TRANSLATION: We are always under | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
threat of eviction. The owner can kick us out whenever he wants. The | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
most of these children's lives, Syria has been at war. Even away | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
from the raging battles, they are still not at peace. | :04:43. | :04:50. | |
He is the man who hates losers, but this week, Donald Trump had to admit | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
defeat. In the first public vote in the race to be the United States' | :04:55. | :05:03. | |
rest -- Republican candidate, he was beaten by Senator Ted Cruz of Texas. | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
The front runner on the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton, won by the | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
narrowest of margins. Jon Sopel reports on the start of America's | :05:12. | :05:20. | |
race for the White House. Donald Trump, doing what he does, | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
projecting himself as life's ultimate winner. This is the | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
fanfare, literally, that he organised for himself when he | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
arrived in Des Moines this weekend. The theme tune from the Reavie Air | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
Force One. -- from the movie. But then reality intervened, and the man | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
who hates losers, lost. We will go on to get the Republican nomination, | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
and we will go on to easily beat Hillary or burning or the hell they | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
throw there. Thank you Ray much. Well, Donald Trump has given not a | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
victory speech, but I concession to Ted Cruz. However, he says he will | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
go on, and hopes he will win in New Hampshire. This is a party that has | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
gone very flat for Donald Trump. When I caught up with his son, he | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
told me the fight goes on. We will be working just as hard in New | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
Hampshire and then South Carolina. We are not going to stop. The winner | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
was a conservative insurgent, Senator Ted Cruz, another figure | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
loathed by the Republican establishment and not that popular | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
with his daughter Eve, by the look of it. But he had a brilliant ground | :06:35. | :06:41. | |
game, clinically targeting his right-wing evangelical base. Tonight | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
is a victory for courageous Conservatives across Iowa and all | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
across this great nation. The other perhaps more significant victory | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
came for this man, with a red tie and the Perma smile. Yes, Marco | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
Rubio only came third, but he way exceeded expectations and has | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
emerged as the clear front runner for mainstream Republicans. Tales. | :07:07. | :07:14. | |
And on the Democratic party side, half a dozen times last night, this | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
is what it came down to. In the most eye-wateringly tight contest ever | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
held. The delegate for this precinct is Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
squeaked it, and her victory speech could be summed up in one word - | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
phew! As I stand here tonight, breathing a big sigh of relief, | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
thank you, Iowa! The left-wing senator from Vermont, Bernie | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
Sanders, did spectacularly in running her so close, and in the | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
middle of the night flew straight New Hampshire, where next week, he | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
hopes to go one better and beat her. His first campaign stop on the back | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
of a pick-up at 4.30 in the morning. Clearly, there is to be no | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
slackening off the pace. Now, if you think your morning | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
commute is bad, spare a thought for rail passengers in southern China. | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
This week, 50,000 of them were stranded by bad weather. It's the | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
busiest time of year, as millions tried to get away for the Chinese | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
new year. Many of those who found themselves stuck at the station are | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
migrant workers from the countryside who usually face long and difficult | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
journeys home for this annual holiday. Our reporter joined them | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
for possibly China's worst ever rush-hour. | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
This week, Guangzhou train station has looked more like the venue for a | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
giant rock concert, although it has been a lot less fun. These | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
extraordinary scenes of congestion are being blamed on the sheer weight | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
of numbers as well as bad weather. Many of the stranded are migrant | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
workers, desperate to get home after months away. It is like a dumpling | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
in the bowl. Like dumplings boiling in a pot, it is that crowded! I feel | :09:10. | :09:18. | |
very tired. When I think about my parents are home, I am eager to come | :09:19. | :09:26. | |
home earlier. But adding to the holiday woes this year is a far | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
larger concern. China's industrial landscape is changing. The | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
factories, once the centrepiece of this economy, are relocating to | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
countries where wages are lower. So many migrants are packing their bags | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
for the last time, fuelling the first drop in China's migrant | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
population in three decades. TRANSLATION: Didn't President Xi | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
Jinping say that if you work hard and stick to your dreams, you will | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
get your reward? Well, we did work hard and have a dream, but we have | :10:01. | :10:06. | |
nothing to show for it. It is little wonder that some migrant workers may | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
have decided enough is enough. They work long hours, a long way from | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
home, and have to face this kind of travel chaos every year. For many of | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
them, it is the only one see your opportunity they get to reconnect | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
with families including young children left behind in the | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
villages. The authorities say the backlog of passengers has mostly now | :10:29. | :10:34. | |
been cleared after extra trains were laid on. China's migrants on move | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
again, but into an increasingly uncertain future. | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
And that is all from Reporters for this week. From me, Philippa Thomas, | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
goodbye for | :10:48. | :10:48. |
