:00:50. > :00:52.after someone taking their burn, Just by taking that less than ?5

:00:53. > :01:00.worth of goods someone got stabbed It was very gruesome

:01:01. > :01:03.and horrifying for me to see the blood splurging

:01:04. > :01:08.as the person was nearly dying And as a woman could you forgive

:01:09. > :01:12.your partner if they cheated Keith Vaz's wife says

:01:13. > :01:19.she has forgiven him. We'll talk to women who have been

:01:20. > :01:28.through a similar experience. England's one-day

:01:29. > :01:43.captain Eoin Morgan has decided against touring

:01:44. > :01:48.Bangladesh next month because The decision has been called

:01:49. > :01:50.pathetic by some. Use the hashtag VictoriaLive

:01:51. > :01:56.and if you text, you will be charged Our top story today:

:01:57. > :01:59.Hillary Clinton has cancelled a campaign trip to California

:02:00. > :02:01.after being diagnosed The US Democratic candidate,

:02:02. > :02:04.who's 68, became ill during a ceremony to honour

:02:05. > :02:06.the victims of the Later she told reporters

:02:07. > :02:09.she was feeling great. Her Republican opponent,

:02:10. > :02:18.Donald Trump, has regularly -- yet to comment on this particular

:02:19. > :02:19.episode but has in the past question whether she has enough stamina to be

:02:20. > :02:22.President. This has become America's most

:02:23. > :02:27.solemn national day, the commemorations marking

:02:28. > :02:29.the anniversary of the attacks This year's event had already become

:02:30. > :02:33.more politicised than usual because of the presence

:02:34. > :02:36.at Ground Zero of the two presidential candidates,

:02:37. > :02:38.Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. But it's these unexpected images

:02:39. > :02:44.on the fringes of the service that could turn it into one of the most

:02:45. > :02:47.memorable and talked-about moments Hillary Clinton, frail, stumbling,

:02:48. > :02:51.and seemingly almost fainting, as she was carried

:02:52. > :02:54.into a waiting vehicle. Not long afterwards,

:02:55. > :03:01.she emerged from her daughter's apartment in New York making light

:03:02. > :03:04.of what had happened. Her campaign released a statement

:03:05. > :03:10.saying that after 90 minutes at Ground Zero, she felt

:03:11. > :03:11.overheated and departed. cough, Hillary Clinton was diagnosed

:03:12. > :03:29.with pneumonia by her cough, Hillary Clinton was diagnosed

:03:30. > :03:32.with pneumonia by her She was put on antibiotics

:03:33. > :03:35.and advised to rest Her doctor said she was overheated

:03:36. > :03:46.and dehydrated from the 9/11 event Donald Trump has tried to make

:03:47. > :03:52.Hillary Clinton's stamina an issue But today he tried

:03:53. > :03:55.a new weapon, reticence. What first seemed like images that

:03:56. > :04:00.could damage her campaign may be seen in a different light

:04:01. > :04:03.given her diagnosis with pneumonia. Our correspondent Jane

:04:04. > :04:14.Frances-Kelly is here. What impact might this have over the

:04:15. > :04:18.coming weeks? Nobody can pretend this wasn't a very bad weekend for

:04:19. > :04:24.Hillary Clinton. On Friday she said that half of Donald Trump's

:04:25. > :04:30.supporters were deplorable comet xenophobes, homophobes, she alleged,

:04:31. > :04:35.and she later apologised. On Sunday she attended the Ground Zero

:04:36. > :04:40.ceremony, which is a very solemn ceremony in American national life.

:04:41. > :04:45.Barring very ill health she probably couldn't have got out of it but she

:04:46. > :04:49.did attend and it was very hot. Her supporters say it was very hot and

:04:50. > :04:55.it was understandable that you might have fainted afterwards, because she

:04:56. > :05:00.has had a gruelling timetable. She did appear all right, I suppose. She

:05:01. > :05:05.seemed in reasonable health when she emerged from Chelsea's apartment.

:05:06. > :05:10.She tried to make light of it. But it is very damaging because she has

:05:11. > :05:17.got a trust issue among many voters. Some would say what is she hiding?

:05:18. > :05:22.Has she got an underlying serious health issue? Her doctor released in

:05:23. > :05:28.2015 some records saying that there is no underlying health issue.

:05:29. > :05:35.Obviously the Republicans will or can make more of an issue from this.

:05:36. > :05:39.Donald Trump has been actually quite reticent, as Nick said, and that is

:05:40. > :05:44.because people in glass houses should not throw stones. He is aware

:05:45. > :05:50.that he is 70. Nobody really knows what his health is like. His doctor

:05:51. > :05:53.released a very bland statement saying that he will be the

:05:54. > :05:56.healthiest President America has ever seen. That doesn't really tell

:05:57. > :06:01.you very much. Thank you. Joanna Gosling is in the BBC

:06:02. > :06:04.newsroom with a summary Syrian rebel groups have

:06:05. > :06:08.expressed strong reservations about the ceasefire brokered

:06:09. > :06:11.by the US and Russia, which is due to come

:06:12. > :06:13.into effect this evening. It comes after a weekend

:06:14. > :06:15.of airstrikes, where more civilians Meanwhile, aid agencies

:06:16. > :06:20.are preparing to take emergency supplies to besieged

:06:21. > :06:30.towns and villages, At the time for the truth draws

:06:31. > :06:35.closer, the intense fighting continues. This is the aftermath of

:06:36. > :06:40.this weekend's air strikes. In Aleppo, at least 18 civilian lives

:06:41. > :06:44.were lost in two days, and on Saturday more than 60 people were

:06:45. > :06:50.killed in the rebel held city of Idlib. In one incident, a busy

:06:51. > :06:55.market full of shoppers preparing for the Eid holiday was struck. The

:06:56. > :06:59.US Russian brokered ceasefire is due to begin on Monday at sunset but

:07:00. > :07:02.already many rebel groups have expressed major reservations about

:07:03. > :07:07.the truce. One of the strongest of those groups stopped short of

:07:08. > :07:12.explicitly saying it would not come by with the terms of the deal, but

:07:13. > :07:30.attacked it in a statement. A spokesman said:

:07:31. > :07:36.Under the plan, if the ceasefire holds for a week, then the US and

:07:37. > :07:40.Russia will coordinate air strikes against Islamist militants across

:07:41. > :07:45.Syria. It will also aim to help hundreds of thousands of trapped

:07:46. > :07:49.civilians caught in the crossfire, opening aid corridors to besieged

:07:50. > :07:53.areas. Our immediate priority will be to bring in life-saving

:07:54. > :07:57.assistance, for example food and medical supplies. That is what is

:07:58. > :08:00.needed right now. Then we really need to look at the mental health

:08:01. > :08:04.and the emotional well-being of children. That you cannot do by just

:08:05. > :08:08.dropping off food baskets. We need to be able to get in there and stay

:08:09. > :08:11.in there and deliver the kinds of programmes that can really help

:08:12. > :08:17.people recover from being under siege for years. Syria's five-year

:08:18. > :08:22.civil war has killed hundreds of thousands of people and displaced 11

:08:23. > :08:26.million. Some believe that while this deal is fragile, it is the best

:08:27. > :08:31.hope of ending the massacre on the ground. Katrina Renton, BBC News.

:08:32. > :08:34.More than 200 religious leaders from faiths across the UK have urged

:08:35. > :08:37.the Prime Minister to do more to help refugees fleeing conflict

:08:38. > :08:40.They say the current immigration rules are too rigid,

:08:41. > :08:45.The Home Office says it's committed to resettling 20,000

:08:46. > :08:48.Syrian refugees by 2020, and is trying to speed up

:08:49. > :08:52.the movement of unaccompanied children.

:08:53. > :08:54.Scotland Yard has launched a new appeal for witnesses

:08:55. > :08:57.after the DNA of a woman was found close to where Stephen Lawrence

:08:58. > :09:02.Detectives recovered new evidence from the strap of a bag

:09:03. > :09:04.found near the bus stop where the 18-year-old student

:09:05. > :09:08.Police say improvements in forensic testing have led

:09:09. > :09:13.Stephen Lawrence was murdered by a group of white men

:09:14. > :09:19.in an unprovoked racist attack in Eltham in 1993.

:09:20. > :09:22.There are warnings from South Korea that North Korea is ready to conduct

:09:23. > :09:29.Government sources in Seoul say aerial photographs

:09:30. > :09:32.of the North Korean test site in a mountainous region

:09:33. > :09:39.indicate that only two of three test tunnels have so far been used.

:09:40. > :09:42.The Ministry of Defence says it's investigating claims in The Sun

:09:43. > :09:44.newspaper that an officer in the Coldstream Guards snorted

:09:45. > :09:46.a powder-like substance from a ceremonial sword

:09:47. > :09:48.while on duty inside St James's Palace.

:09:49. > :09:52.It says the army expects all personnel to stick to its high

:09:53. > :10:00.standards and anyone found to fall short is disciplined robustly.

:10:01. > :10:02.That's a summary of the latest BBC News.

:10:03. > :10:13.Do get in touch with us throughout the morning.

:10:14. > :10:16.Use the hashtag VictoriaLIVE and if you text, you will be charged

:10:17. > :10:27.Whatsapp is free. We are going to give you an insight into young

:10:28. > :10:31.offenders institutions. Clearly some of you will think if you can't do

:10:32. > :10:34.the time, don't do the crime. They are where they are and you will be

:10:35. > :10:39.very interested to see what life is like for some of these young people.

:10:40. > :10:43.This tweet comes in. I don't think most of the public know what goes on

:10:44. > :10:47.in prisons at all. They seem to think it is fun. This from Scott.

:10:48. > :10:50.Rehabilitation is one thing but there are a lot of ordinary

:10:51. > :11:01.law-abiding people are getting fed up with prisoners, adult or

:11:02. > :11:04.juvenile, bleating on about their rights. Prison is a deterrent. And

:11:05. > :11:11.from Dave. Someone has got to take the bull stables -- pool tables and

:11:12. > :11:20.PlayStation away. And this from Harry: If you can't do the crime,

:11:21. > :11:21.don't do -- if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. It is

:11:22. > :11:24.simple. Thank you for those. Jessica Creighton is at

:11:25. > :11:35.the BBC Sports Centre. Great Britain won eight gold medals

:11:36. > :11:39.and 28 medals in all for a super Sunday for the team. Richard

:11:40. > :11:43.Whitehead was successful on the track, defending his T42200 metres

:11:44. > :11:49.title and team-mates Dave Henson was third. A good day in the water as

:11:50. > :11:54.well. Rachel Morris won one of three British rowing gold medals in the

:11:55. > :11:58.arms shoulders single sculls. Afterwards she spoke to the sports

:11:59. > :12:02.correspondent Andy Swift. I went out to raise my race and not their race

:12:03. > :12:04.and I followed my wristband and it worked. We could see how emotional

:12:05. > :12:30.you were. Tell us what it was like at the end. A mixture of

:12:31. > :12:33.emotion and chucking up at the same time! It was great. Some really

:12:34. > :12:34.inspiring stories from the athletes involved in the Paralympics. The

:12:35. > :12:38.Egyptian table tennis player Ibrahim Magag do is one of those. He holds

:12:39. > :12:40.the paddle in his mouth and flicks the ball with his foot to serve. It

:12:41. > :12:43.is not just as sporting ability but his attitude to life that has

:12:44. > :12:45.impressed people. He says that disability is not in arms and legs.

:12:46. > :12:48.The disability is not to persevere in whatever you would like to do.

:12:49. > :12:51.Incredible. A friend of mine was tweeting pictures at the weekend of

:12:52. > :12:53.him. She said showed this to any child and tell them what is

:12:54. > :12:56.possible. Anybody who says they can't do that should look at this

:12:57. > :13:00.guy and it would inspire you. It is what sport is about. We have some

:13:01. > :13:05.tennis for you as well. Stanislas Wawrinka is the new US Open

:13:06. > :13:10.champion. But possibly not that big a shock when he beat the world

:13:11. > :13:14.number one Novak Djokovic. But his fitness has been off recently. He

:13:15. > :13:19.went out of the Olympics early if you weeks ago, as you will remember,

:13:20. > :13:22.and before that he lost in the third round of Wimbledon. And in the

:13:23. > :13:28.run-up to this US Open he was recovering from a wrist injury. He

:13:29. > :13:32.reached the final after two opponent retired injured and one pulled out

:13:33. > :13:37.before the match. But Stanislas Wawrinka, a brilliant performance to

:13:38. > :13:42.win in four sets. He is now 31 and this is his third Grand Slam title.

:13:43. > :13:47.Being 31, he is the second oldest winner of the tournament. An

:13:48. > :13:53.interesting decision has arisen in the cricket. As you might know,

:13:54. > :14:01.Captain Eoin Morgan has decided to pull out. Just give you some

:14:02. > :14:04.background on this, the opening batsman Alex Hales has also pulled

:14:05. > :14:09.out of the tour of Bangladesh which was due to go ahead in October. Both

:14:10. > :14:12.of the players have decided it is not quite safe enough because of an

:14:13. > :14:17.attack that killed 20 people back in July. Morgan and Alex Hales have

:14:18. > :14:22.said they don't feel comfortable. What does that mean? For the

:14:23. > :14:27.director of cricket, Andrew Strauss, it will not affect future selection

:14:28. > :14:31.in the team. It is not expected that Morgan will lose his captaincy and

:14:32. > :14:34.they have both had support from their team-mates. Ben Stokes tweeted

:14:35. > :14:38.last night that he will always back his captain and the decisions of

:14:39. > :14:44.team-mates on decisions like this. He has urged us to respect their

:14:45. > :14:49.important choice. The ECB did give players a choice. Withdrawals like

:14:50. > :14:54.this were always a possibility. More in the headlines at 9:30am. Thank

:14:55. > :14:59.you. We would be interested to hear your views on that. Michael Vaughan

:15:00. > :15:06.has said that Eoin Morgan has made a to mistake in this decision as a

:15:07. > :15:09.captain. If you ask people in your team to do something you will not

:15:10. > :15:12.do, that could undermine your authority.

:15:13. > :15:15.Levels of violence in young offender institutions have been described

:15:16. > :15:16.as unacceptably high, with inmates and staff

:15:17. > :15:18.facing the daily threat of beatings and stabbings.

:15:19. > :15:21.The Government is promising a thorough review of the system.

:15:22. > :15:23.But what's life like for young people who get locked up?

:15:24. > :15:26.Our reporter Noel Philips has been speaking to young offenders

:15:27. > :15:27.as they reveal the impact of violence.

:15:28. > :15:29.This film includes some graphic footage and description

:15:30. > :15:31.which you might not want young children to watch.

:15:32. > :15:48.Are Britain's young offenders institutions in crisis?

:15:49. > :15:50.With self-harm, suicide and violent assault at a record high, many say

:15:51. > :15:57.You're just sending them into a cage with other...

:15:58. > :16:01.It's a jungle where you have to have animal instincts

:16:02. > :16:11.Politicians are aware of the problem.

:16:12. > :16:14.The Government launched a review of the entire youth justice system,

:16:15. > :16:17.headed by renowned former headteacher Charlie Taylor,

:16:18. > :16:22.and there is a Parliamentary inquiry looking at the same issues.

:16:23. > :16:29.He caught me in his cell, so I set about him and it took

:16:30. > :16:41.six guys and one screw to take me off him.

:16:42. > :16:45.Seven years ago, this unit at Feltham Young Offenders'

:16:46. > :16:47.Institution in West London was opened by the then

:16:48. > :16:49.Justice Secretary, Jack Straw, and former London Mayor Boris

:16:50. > :16:55.If an institution like this can deal with young offenders,

:16:56. > :16:58.put them back on the right track, that will save our society,

:16:59. > :17:04.save taxpayers loads of money in the long term.

:17:05. > :17:06.It was a project aimed at cutting reoffending, but campaigners

:17:07. > :17:11.say despite promises, little has been achieved.

:17:12. > :17:15.In Feltham, fights happen from day to day, any time of day,

:17:16. > :17:17.over silly things like tobacco being stolen, towels

:17:18. > :17:23.being misplaced, simple little petty things that would cause inmates

:17:24. > :17:32.Stephen is 22, and knows what it's like to be locked up with some

:17:33. > :17:37.In 2012, he was sent to Feltham Young Offenders,

:17:38. > :17:42.a prison with a notorious reputation for violent assaults.

:17:43. > :17:45.When I got there, it did live up to its reputation, because literally

:17:46. > :17:48.every day I was there, you would see a fight immediately

:17:49. > :17:58.Fights were happening all the time, just literally all the time.

:17:59. > :18:00.Stephen ended up in Feltham after committing his

:18:01. > :18:07.He was one of 1,500 people across England sent to prison

:18:08. > :18:14.Basically it started off with just saying,

:18:15. > :18:20.I was just interested in going to see what it was all about, really.

:18:21. > :18:32.In Leeds, 23-year-old Jamie has lost count of his convictions

:18:33. > :18:36.after spending most of his teenage years in and out of police custody.

:18:37. > :18:38.I think I've got about 42 previous convictions.

:18:39. > :18:46.For stuff like robberies, burglaries, knife crime,

:18:47. > :18:56.Five years ago, Jamie made headlines when he was arrested along

:18:57. > :18:59.with his mum for their role in a gang who were trafficking guns

:19:00. > :19:07.My mum got done for importation of firearms back in 2011,

:19:08. > :19:09.but luckily for us, we only got 12 months probation.

:19:10. > :19:13.The rest of them got 25 to life in prison.

:19:14. > :19:16.Despite his number of convictions, Jamie was not imprisoned until 2011,

:19:17. > :19:24.He was sentenced to six weeks in HMV Doncaster for criminal damage.

:19:25. > :19:27.Doncaster prison, like many nowadays, houses both adults

:19:28. > :19:33.I had one fight with one guy, a 40-year-old Romanian guy.

:19:34. > :19:41.He caught me in his cell, so I set about him, and it took six

:19:42. > :19:43.guys and one screw to take me off him.

:19:44. > :19:47.And then he made a racist remark, so I went back to the pad,

:19:48. > :19:51.filled the kettle up obviously with sugar,

:19:52. > :19:54.went to chuck it at him in and the screw slammed

:19:55. > :19:59.The Chief Inspector of Prisons has described Doncaster as a poor

:20:00. > :20:14.institution with major concerns about safety.

:20:15. > :20:16.Screws just sit back and watch you fight each other.

:20:17. > :20:21.Mentally disturbing, because you are in a cell for 21

:20:22. > :20:28.hours a day doing nothing but staring at all four walls.

:20:29. > :20:33.And like all of Britain's 63 prisons for young offenders,

:20:34. > :20:36.HMP Isis in Oxfordshire, which holds over 600 young men,

:20:37. > :20:54.Stephen was moved there from Feltham in 2012.

:20:55. > :20:57.During my imprisonment at Isis, someone got stabbed in the shower,

:20:58. > :21:01.right about here, and the blood was coming out everywhere,

:21:02. > :21:04.like literally it was just down to someone taking their

:21:05. > :21:14.Just by taking a small worth of fortune, less

:21:15. > :21:19.than ?5 worth of goods, someone got stabbed and nearly died.

:21:20. > :21:23.It was very gruesome and horrifying for me to see all the blood

:21:24. > :21:28.splurging, the person was nearly down on the floor fainting.

:21:29. > :21:32.Now, there are many young offenders across the country with experiences

:21:33. > :21:38.Their stories are an example of how not to treat troubled young men.

:21:39. > :21:43.So why do we keep making the same mistakes?

:21:44. > :21:48.Imitaz has been campaigning for better treatment for young

:21:49. > :21:51.offenders since his 19-year-old nephew Zahid Mubarak was murdered

:21:52. > :21:55.by a racist cell-mate in Feltham 16 years ago.

:21:56. > :21:58.When Zahid was in Feltham Young Offenders, basically

:21:59. > :22:01.he would get a 90-day sentence, and during those 90 days,

:22:02. > :22:09.he was locked up by and large for 22 hours a day with a racist cell-mate.

:22:19. > :22:27.Maybe the catalyst that made Zahid's murderer carry out the attack.

:22:28. > :22:30.In the last 20 years, there have been similar incidents.

:22:31. > :22:34.According to the charity Inquest, half a dozen young men,

:22:35. > :22:39.including Zahid, have been killed in young offenders' institutions.

:22:40. > :22:42.Young offenders more often than not are going to be released

:22:50. > :22:59.That should actually be the safest place for them.

:23:20. > :23:22.By the time he gets out of there, I will be 40-odd.

:23:23. > :23:26.He says he's coping good, but I know for a fact he's

:23:27. > :23:29.Because you have been in there and seen

:23:30. > :23:33.He doesn't even get support in there.

:23:34. > :23:35.He's got mental health issues, and I don't think he

:23:36. > :23:40.I think he should be in a psychiatric hospital where

:23:41. > :23:50.How can he get the support he needs in a place like that?

:23:51. > :23:53.And with concerns about overcrowding and a shortage of staff,

:23:54. > :23:56.Stephen believes the problems with young offenders institutes

:23:57. > :24:02.A lot of prison officers these days are young

:24:03. > :24:05.For example, you've got a prison officer who's 24

:24:06. > :24:19.But these young untrained qualified staff have no control at all.

:24:20. > :24:22.This video filmed on a banned mobile phone by young offenders at HMP

:25:03. > :25:04.sexually, financially, different things take place,

:25:05. > :25:06.but obviously it's a place where it's chaos.

:25:07. > :25:09.They don't go to jail, learn, and come out.

:25:10. > :25:11.They go to jail, learn how to be a better criminal,

:25:12. > :25:18.Since being released from prison, Stephen has reoffended,

:25:25. > :25:28.I wasn't getting any support or help from the Government.

:25:29. > :25:32.I'm not saying it was the best option, but I was making ends meet.

:25:33. > :25:48.Jamie is hoping his future will be different, but with his string

:25:49. > :25:51.of convictions and an unstable family life, he tells me he's

:25:59. > :26:02.His mum's ex-partner is injured after being attacked

:26:03. > :26:09.I just want the police to see what's the matter with him,

:26:25. > :26:26.all she can to keep Jamie safe, but for Nathan,

:26:27. > :26:31.What worries you the most about Nathan being in a young

:26:32. > :26:35.That he will get killed, basically, for what he's done,

:26:36. > :26:40.So every day, you're waking up worried?

:26:41. > :26:46.Yes, that I'm going to get that phone call.

:26:47. > :26:49.There isn't a simple solution to solve the growing problems

:26:50. > :26:54.A report due to be published next month by the Justice Committee

:26:55. > :26:57.will say the way in which most offenders like Jamie and Stephen

:26:58. > :27:02.are treated will not help them change.

:27:03. > :27:04.Prison isn't helping nobody, it's just making them worse.

:27:05. > :27:07.They see theirselves as a failure, they failed through the system.

:27:08. > :27:19.So they'll just go in and come back out and go in and come back out.

:27:20. > :27:21.We asked the Ministry of Justice for an interview,

:27:22. > :27:27.Instead they told us, "The level of violence

:27:28. > :27:29.in our prisons is unacceptable especially violence

:27:30. > :27:32.against our hard-working and dedicated prison staff.

:34:15. > :34:20.accident when he was 16. And in Leeds is Ramone McKoy,

:34:21. > :34:25.sister of Kadeena Cox, the first Briton since 1988 to win a medal

:34:26. > :34:28.in two sports in under 24 hours Kadeena, who has MS,

:34:29. > :34:41.won a gold and a bronze. Welcome to those of you. Bekki, how

:34:42. > :34:47.much pressure was Andy under? The para-triathlon has made its debut in

:34:48. > :34:50.these games. Yes, it has. He was under a lot of pressure. He just

:34:51. > :34:55.wanted to make everyone proud of him and come away with a medal, even if

:34:56. > :35:01.it wasn't gold. He smashed it and came away with what he wanted. When

:35:02. > :35:06.you spoke to him, what did you say to each other? Just well done,

:35:07. > :35:10.congratulations, I had every faith in you. He still can't believe it is

:35:11. > :35:32.real. I think he wakes up in a night to make sure the medal is

:35:33. > :35:36.still beneath his pillow because he thinks it was a dream! That is

:35:37. > :35:39.brilliant. You have two little ones, Jasmine and Logan, who is two and a

:35:40. > :35:42.half. What do they make of their dad making history? Jasmine is nine and

:35:43. > :35:44.she understands more than Logan. She is over the moon and preparing for

:35:45. > :35:47.his homecoming. When Logan sees his dad on the telly, he shouts that is

:35:48. > :35:49.daddy! He doesn't understand much about it but as he gets older,

:35:50. > :35:54.hopefully he will understand more why daddy wasn't around and things

:35:55. > :36:00.like that. Ramon, welcome to the programme. What do you make of your

:36:01. > :36:03.sister? She has done a really good job. She has made everybody proud

:36:04. > :36:11.and we couldn't be more proud of her. The first Briton since 1988 to

:36:12. > :36:15.win a medal in two sports at the Paralympics. Cycling gold and bronze

:36:16. > :36:20.on the athletics track as well. I think this is right. She almost was

:36:21. > :36:24.not able to compete in both, was she? That is correct. At one point

:36:25. > :36:28.they made her choose which one she wanted to do and she said it was

:36:29. > :36:32.really hard to choose. In the end they allowed her to do both. I don't

:36:33. > :36:36.know if you heard me mention the news about the ticket sales. For the

:36:37. > :36:42.Paralympics you probably knew that ticket sales were slow. They dropped

:36:43. > :36:46.the prices and they have sold 1.8 million tickets. What do you think

:36:47. > :36:50.of that? It is amazing how many people turned out at the event and

:36:51. > :36:57.gave support to the Paralympics. Very good. How does an S your

:36:58. > :37:03.sister's training? It is very difficult for her, depending on how

:37:04. > :37:07.she wakes up in the morning. That can determine how she will be for

:37:08. > :37:14.the day. She doesn't let anything hold her back and she keeps going.

:37:15. > :37:19.She is a fighter. God knew what she had in her and she has succeeded.

:37:20. > :37:31.Thank you for talking to us about your sister, Ramon McCoy, sister of

:37:32. > :37:39.Kadeena Cox, and to Bekki Lewis, wife of Andy Lewis. Congratulations

:37:40. > :37:45.to both those Paralympians. And what do you think about Alex Hales and

:37:46. > :37:48.Eoin Morgan pulling out of the tour to Bangladesh? Some say it is

:37:49. > :37:55.strength and others say it is pathetic. Tell us your opinion. And

:37:56. > :38:00.MP Keith Vaz's wife says she will forgive her husband for cheating on

:38:01. > :38:04.her with male escorts. She is giving the left MP and former minister a

:38:05. > :38:09.second chance but if he does it again, she will fling him out. In an

:38:10. > :38:10.interview she said it was a terrible shock and she is still processing

:38:11. > :38:31.it. The couple now plan to have marriage

:38:32. > :38:35.counselling. How difficult is it to save a marriage when one partner has

:38:36. > :38:39.cheated? Does it change things if the part you thought was straight

:38:40. > :38:41.has cheated with some of the same sex? Does it change things if they

:38:42. > :38:47.have had sex with prostitutes? She was married for 32 years before

:38:48. > :38:51.finding out her husband Teresa runs the Straight

:38:52. > :38:55.Partners Network. She was married to a man for ten

:38:56. > :39:06.years before he revealed he was gay. Thank you for coming on the

:39:07. > :39:13.programme. Let me start with Natasha. Where there are signs? Yes,

:39:14. > :39:18.there were, throughout the marriage, really, and even before we got

:39:19. > :39:25.married. I suppose you dismiss it and you have conversations about it.

:39:26. > :39:31.You don't actually fall in love with someone and expect them to end up

:39:32. > :39:35.being gay. You expect them to tell you that they love you and you

:39:36. > :39:43.believe them. What were the signs, if you don't mind me asking?

:39:44. > :39:47.Basically things like when we first had a computer there were internet

:39:48. > :39:52.chats with other men, arranging meetings. We went through

:39:53. > :39:59.counselling not long afterwards. Probably like Keith Vaz and his wife

:40:00. > :40:02.are doing. They convinced me that he was arranging to meet men because

:40:03. > :40:08.there were issues in the marriage and he didn't want to have an affair

:40:09. > :40:11.and that is why he did what he did. I was convinced that he wasn't gay

:40:12. > :40:17.and he was trying to work through the marriage with me. I believed

:40:18. > :40:26.that and we carried on for another eight years married. Let me bring

:40:27. > :40:29.into reason. In terms of straight partners anonymous, how common is it

:40:30. > :40:35.to hear from a married woman or man who thinks their partner might be

:40:36. > :40:39.gay? I think it is all too common. The sad thing is that people are

:40:40. > :40:47.devastated by this discovery. As I was, in my turn. Much of what the

:40:48. > :40:52.group does is to stop the person feeling alone because it is a very

:40:53. > :40:56.isolating thing to find out, as I am sure Natasha will verify. Initially

:40:57. > :41:05.people cannot even tell friends and family, other people, so to have a

:41:06. > :41:08.group to talk to, we all participate and support other people because we

:41:09. > :41:13.have all been through the same experience and we are all at

:41:14. > :41:18.different places on the path to recovery. It is a very positive

:41:19. > :41:22.group. What happened in your case? I had a very long marriage. I had

:41:23. > :41:31.known my husband since the age of 16. And we had a very long marriage

:41:32. > :41:35.of 32 years and four children. He disclosed it to me. I felt I had a

:41:36. > :41:40.long and happy marriage and I was proud of that. So it was a

:41:41. > :41:48.devastating discovery. Did you have any sympathy for him? Sympathy from?

:41:49. > :41:54.Sympathy for him if he was a gay man leading a double life. Clearly there

:41:55. > :41:59.is betrayal and I understand that. Of course if you love somebody you

:42:00. > :42:04.have sympathy for their pain. But you are also extremely hurt yourself

:42:05. > :42:10.and reeling to cope with the devastation of your marriage.

:42:11. > :42:16.Therefore initially I think our plan was possibly to stay together but we

:42:17. > :42:22.very quickly realised that I would be making a lot of compromises for

:42:23. > :42:25.that. I just felt that I was worth more than that and I wanted a proper

:42:26. > :42:32.marriage where I wasn't having to share somebody. My mission then was

:42:33. > :42:39.to create something as positive as I could. Let me bring Natasha back in.

:42:40. > :42:45.How did you find out properly in the end what happened? We were going

:42:46. > :42:58.through a divorce. I never had any proof throughout the divorce. On a

:42:59. > :43:03.lot of occasions... It is called gaslamp in. I was distracted through

:43:04. > :43:08.the marriage. He said I'm not, I'm not. Because of the mental

:43:09. > :43:15.restrictions from friends and family and because I wasn't able to talk

:43:16. > :43:22.about it publicly, especially in the early days, I didn't have any

:43:23. > :43:29.tangible proof. Then he posted a video on his Facebook which was how

:43:30. > :43:33.I actually found out. To his dismay obviously. That must have been quite

:43:34. > :43:39.traumatic for him but at least it opened a dialogue and we were able

:43:40. > :43:44.to talk about it. I had felt so worthless, especially as a woman,

:43:45. > :43:50.and knowing that our whole marriage felt like a sham. What was the

:43:51. > :43:55.nature of the video that he uploaded to Facebook by accident? It was

:43:56. > :44:04.clear that he was in an intimate relationship with another man. Wow.

:44:05. > :44:14.Why hadn't he been able to tell you himself? I think because he wasn't

:44:15. > :44:22.able to come out himself. His friends and his family didn't know

:44:23. > :44:26.the reason for our divorce. I never went over and said this is why we

:44:27. > :44:30.are getting divorced. I think I felt like a black sheep and they didn't

:44:31. > :44:36.know why. We still haven't had discussions with his family since. I

:44:44. > :44:47.that and we are building bridges, which is great because we have got a

:44:48. > :44:51.young family and we need to move ahead for that. I want to be able to

:44:52. > :44:55.support him and feel his support for me, but at the time it was

:44:56. > :45:02.absolutely devastating. Sorry to interrupt. It is worth saying to our

:45:03. > :45:05.audience that your ex has given you permission to talk about this. You

:45:06. > :45:10.don't need his permission but he is comfortable with you talking about

:45:11. > :45:15.it openly. I don't think he appreciated at the time how rocked

:45:16. > :45:23.to be caught it can make a man or woman feel. -- rocked to the core.

:45:24. > :45:28.It is that sense of worthlessness that the person might have loved you

:45:29. > :45:34.as a friend but never really really loved you as a man and a woman

:45:35. > :45:39.should do. He understands now. We have had discussions about the way

:45:40. > :45:43.it made me feel. And how it has affected my life since and probably

:45:44. > :45:54.my life for a long time yet in terms of trust. In terms of feeling that I

:45:55. > :45:57.could be in a straight, honest, trustworthy relationship again.

:45:58. > :46:07.What do you think of Maria Fernandes decision to stand by her husband,

:46:08. > :46:13.Keith Vaz? It is an early decision. We often go through a phase early on

:46:14. > :46:18.where they want to cling to what they know and they're willing to

:46:19. > :46:24.compromise a lot initially to do that. And obviously Maria Fernandes

:46:25. > :46:29.has the extra pressure of the media spotlight which must be extremely

:46:30. > :46:32.unpleasant. She didn't have to do an interview, she was very revealing

:46:33. > :46:38.about all sorts of personal details. She didn't have to do an interview

:46:39. > :46:42.at all? I hope she did it with the greatest intention for herself

:46:43. > :46:48.rather than being pressured into it. We, as a group, we felt extremely

:46:49. > :46:52.sympathetic to her and we want to reach out to her, but she is not in

:46:53. > :46:57.a very trusting state at the moment, but my suspicion is that after a

:46:58. > :47:01.time perhaps she will, her feelings may change. It is something we find

:47:02. > :47:05.with a lot of members that they are on a journey here that they have

:47:06. > :47:08.been thrown into her and her feelings may change as to how she

:47:09. > :47:12.wants to deal with this. Perhaps once the media pressure has died

:47:13. > :47:18.down a little bit and she can be private about it. Stephen texts to

:47:19. > :47:25.say, "Poor men wrestling with their sexuality. Keith Vaz is probably a

:47:26. > :47:33.good guy and it is a shame he grew up feeling he had to hide himself".

:47:34. > :47:39.This viewer says, "Not every man who sleeps with another man is gay."

:47:40. > :47:43.This tweet from Lee, "Someone who is trying to be someone they're not,

:47:44. > :47:46.that must be really tough and for them to hide themselves will be

:47:47. > :47:50.hard." Thank you very much. Thank you Teresa, thank you for coming on

:47:51. > :47:54.the programme. Natasha, I appreciate you being so candid. Thank you for

:47:55. > :47:58.coming on the programme. Thank you, take care.

:47:59. > :48:02.She is one of the hottest new faces on Instagram but many of her fans

:48:03. > :48:05.are trying to work out if she is a real person or not.

:48:06. > :48:08.Debate is raging about whether Lil Miquela is a model

:48:09. > :48:09.who relies on technology to create her distinctive look,

:48:10. > :48:18.or if she is in fact 100% computer generated.

:48:19. > :49:05.BBC Trending tried to the answer the question - filter or fake?

:49:06. > :49:14.Looking at the images they are obviously models manipulated to look

:49:15. > :49:21.more feline. Slightly less realistic.

:49:22. > :49:28.I think it is more about the posing that would be more confusing. You

:49:29. > :49:32.are used to someone putting their shoulders forward and larger heads

:49:33. > :49:34.in the fore ground to try and achieve something that looks more

:49:35. > :50:03.real world. I feel like most of us know when we

:50:04. > :50:07.open a magazine a lot of the images have been tweaked, but social media,

:50:08. > :50:11.especially Instagram, it is touted as being people's real lives. This

:50:12. > :50:18.is what I look like on a day-to-day basis. It is completely not like

:50:19. > :50:23.that. I thought it looked really fake. I

:50:24. > :50:32.thought it looked a lot like a British model would. There are lots

:50:33. > :50:37.of elements of her face there. I remember being at school in the

:50:38. > :50:42.late 90s and there was a PlayStation advert with a girl who had a really

:50:43. > :50:46.big forehead and a little chin, it was like has she been changed or was

:50:47. > :50:50.that her real face? It is nothing new, the concept of it. Instantly

:50:51. > :51:00.you're drawn in and you want to decide, is she real or not?

:51:01. > :51:03.It is a very clever way to get an audience.

:51:04. > :51:05.Coming up, are artists like Adele being paid enough

:51:20. > :51:26.It is unclear whether rebel groups in the country will observe the

:51:27. > :51:28.truce. Our correspondent James Longman

:51:29. > :51:40.is in Beirut, in neighbouring Why might the ceasefire not happen,

:51:41. > :51:44.James? None of the main rebel groups that are backed by the US have said

:51:45. > :51:48.they're going to take part. There is a lot of scepticism on the rebel

:51:49. > :51:51.side about just how this negotiated truce can actually happen? They

:51:52. > :51:56.don't feel they were consulted about it. They feel that there are huge

:51:57. > :52:00.parts of Syria which are under siege and if a cessation of hostilities

:52:01. > :52:04.takes place, what that means the Government could perform land grabs

:52:05. > :52:09.and it means that territory is lost by the rebels. They're really

:52:10. > :52:14.worried about the airstrikes that are supposed to be taking place

:52:15. > :52:17.after a week on the Al-Qaeda affiliates and on so-called Islamic

:52:18. > :52:21.State because rebels particularly in the north of Syria work alongside

:52:22. > :52:26.Islamist groups and if there are airstrikes then a lot of the men who

:52:27. > :52:32.fight for western-backed rebels could be caught up in those. Rebels

:52:33. > :52:35.are very, very, very sceptical about the dealing, but they are probably

:52:36. > :52:38.going to say yes because they don't have much other choice. There is a

:52:39. > :52:42.huge humanitarian crisis going on in Syria at the moment and people are

:52:43. > :52:45.in desperate need of aid. You mentioned more airstrikes. Yes,

:52:46. > :52:51.there were more at the weekend, perhaps to be expected in the run-up

:52:52. > :52:55.to hopefully the ceasefire? Well, yes, you're right because that's the

:52:56. > :53:02.pattern that we always see, a truce is agreed. A couple of days before

:53:03. > :53:06.the truce actually comes into, actually takes place, the Government

:53:07. > :53:09.then steps up its attacks on opposition-held areas and in this

:53:10. > :53:14.case it was in I had lib and Aleppo. Over 100 people were killed this

:53:15. > :53:17.weekend and rebels would say that's because the Government wants to

:53:18. > :53:21.force the opposition to say we don't want the truce and then they get

:53:22. > :53:27.blamed for the breakdown, if there is a cessation for 48 hours and for

:53:28. > :53:31.another week, if that holds, the US and Russia say they are going to

:53:32. > :53:35.start airstrikes against Isis and the Al-Qaeda affiliates across the

:53:36. > :53:41.border in Syria, and that will be, there will be a joint commander a

:53:42. > :53:46.joint Russia and US command in Aman in Jordan where they will be able to

:53:47. > :53:51.facilitate this military co-operation, the first of its kind

:53:52. > :53:55.for a long time between the US and Russia, but we are waiting to hear

:53:56. > :54:00.if the ceasefire will actually begin at sunset tonight. Thank you very

:54:01. > :54:04.much, James. James Longman. Thank you for your comments about

:54:05. > :54:08.the state of Young Offenders Institutions. Our film giving you a

:54:09. > :54:12.real insight about what life can be like for young offenders in the

:54:13. > :54:19.institutions. The Ministry of Justice are saying that levels of

:54:20. > :54:23.violence inside is unacceptable. Andy says, "I'm an ex-offender that

:54:24. > :54:26.managed to turn my life around after many prison sentences long and

:54:27. > :54:30.short. It can be achieved with hard work, but it come down to the person

:54:31. > :54:33.actually wanting to change. When I go to prison I would always say I

:54:34. > :54:38.want to change and better myself, but really had no intention of doing

:54:39. > :54:42.so. The violence won't stop though as some staff laugh about it and

:54:43. > :54:47.encourage people to hurt others due to the crime they've committed."

:54:48. > :54:52.This texter says, they don't leave their name. "Prison is easy. I did

:54:53. > :54:58.20 years as a prison officer. They can say in bed all day, watch TV,

:54:59. > :55:04.food chosen from a menu." Toby says, "I was a young offender in the 80s

:55:05. > :55:10.and it was just as violent then." On Facebook Jackie says, "I work in a

:55:11. > :55:15.secure children's home it is a welfare rather than a criminal unit.

:55:16. > :55:19.The ratio of staff is superior to what you have shown today. It is

:55:20. > :55:22.non-smoking as well. On occasion we have young people who have been in

:55:23. > :55:25.the Criminal Justice System when they come out of their room they're

:55:26. > :55:29.ready to fight. They have little trust in adults keeping them safe.

:55:30. > :55:33.Lifting them out of the criminal system, caring for them and letting

:55:34. > :55:37.them see what else life has to offer can help them turn their lives

:55:38. > :55:40.around." Thank you for those really thoughtful comments from you who

:55:41. > :55:43.have got experience. Those are the kind of comments that really help

:55:44. > :55:47.contribute to our conversations. We'll talk to politicians and an

:55:48. > :55:51.ex-offender in the next half an hour of the programme. So if you have got

:55:52. > :55:55.personal experience, do get in touch.

:55:56. > :56:06.It is time for the latest weather. It is going to be really hot

:56:07. > :56:09.tomorrow, Phil, what about today? It isn't for everybody and some of you

:56:10. > :56:13.will be relieved about that. Across northern and western parts, windy

:56:14. > :56:17.certainly in the short term and really wet at times as it is today,

:56:18. > :56:20.but somewhere across the eastern side of England, probably in the

:56:21. > :56:24.South East, it will see a temperature profile like that. If

:56:25. > :56:28.heat is not your thing, you have got to wait for that weather front to

:56:29. > :56:31.get across, but it will take a time. Much of the week before we see that

:56:32. > :56:36.transition. The thing about being well away interest that front, we're

:56:37. > :56:39.picking up the heat. It is coming from the near Continent where they

:56:40. > :56:43.have had a heatwave over Western Europe for sometime and if we get

:56:44. > :56:47.enough sunshine, then we will see that 31 Celsius. This was the scene

:56:48. > :56:55.this morning on the eastern shores of Cumbria. It wasn't like that

:56:56. > :57:01.everywhere by any means at all. This is at Pontypridd. Picking up on the

:57:02. > :57:05.extra cloud that's there across the south-west of England, there is no

:57:06. > :57:08.getting away from the fact that the bulk of the rain will be found

:57:09. > :57:12.across Northern Ireland and up across the western side of Scotland

:57:13. > :57:17.where we could be looking at 20 to 30 millimetres of rain, possibly 40

:57:18. > :57:20.over the higher ground, somewhere like Argyll. Eastern parts of

:57:21. > :57:23.Scotland will get sunshine and it will boost your temperatures into

:57:24. > :57:27.the low 20s perhaps. Not the case for Northern Ireland. Sunshine in

:57:28. > :57:31.short supply here and cloudy across parts of Wales and the south-west.

:57:32. > :57:36.Not without the chance of a wee bit of brightness. But you have got to

:57:37. > :57:43.be that wee bit further east to thin the cloud out and get the

:57:44. > :57:47.temperatures up to 24 or 25. The rain keeps on coming. The odd

:57:48. > :57:51.moderate to heavy burst coming up the line of that front. Further

:57:52. > :57:55.east, here is one of the stories, not just for tonight, but indeed on

:57:56. > :57:58.into the next night. Somewhere 18 Celsius, 19 Celsius, possibly 20

:57:59. > :58:03.Celsius and then we're off and running into Tuesday. Gun, we have

:58:04. > :58:05.got this cloud. It is producing thundery bursts across the

:58:06. > :58:08.south-west across Wales. Still there for Northern Ireland. Western parts

:58:09. > :58:12.of Scotland. But if you haven't had a mention thus far then you are in

:58:13. > :58:16.the running for a really warm day, if not a hot one. It depends on the

:58:17. > :58:21.level of cloud we get as to whether we get 30 or 31 Celsius. Look at

:58:22. > :58:27.this, I doff my cap to Northern Ireland where you won't get a warm

:58:28. > :58:30.day, 15 and it falls back to 13 Celsius overnight, but at least you

:58:31. > :58:34.have got a better chance of leaping than Tuesday night where we have got

:58:35. > :58:39.19 or 20 Celsius. We keep that sort of regime up for the next three or

:58:40. > :58:43.four days and then it does change towards the end of the week where we

:58:44. > :58:47.will bring the weather front further east and we clear away the heat by

:58:48. > :58:51.day, but also by night. So if you don't like heat, not everybody does,

:58:52. > :58:59.then hang on in there, things will change.

:59:00. > :59:08.How ill is Hillary Clinton? She has been diagnosed with pneumonia after

:59:09. > :59:13.appearing to faint yesterday at a 9/11 memorial event. Her opponents

:59:14. > :59:17.queried her physical fitness in the past, what will voters think? How

:59:18. > :59:22.are you feeling? Great. What happened? Can you give us a

:59:23. > :59:27.statement? It is a beautiful day in New York. On the programme, living

:59:32. > :59:38.who have experienced life behind bars in Britain's young offenders

:59:46. > :59:50.tobacco, being stolen, towels being misplaced that want to cause inmates

:59:51. > :59:53.to have fights. So many of you are getting in touch with experience on

:59:54. > :59:56.that. Do share your own experiences if you have been inside, either as

:59:57. > :00:01.an inmate or as a prison officer. Get in touch.

:00:02. > :00:06.Have a look at this. Which of the cubes on the right can be made from

:00:07. > :00:11.the cube net on the left? I'll give you a few seconds to have a look at

:00:12. > :00:15.that and work it out. If you know the answer, or think you do, get in

:00:16. > :00:20.touch? Because that's one of the questions pupils taking it the

:03:32. > :03:37.for sex. Craig says he was married for 15 years to an amazing woman. I

:03:38. > :03:40.am gay and I hid it for years. It is very hard. For years you are made to

:03:41. > :03:45.feel that being gay is disgusting and horrible and so you hide it. The

:03:46. > :03:50.longer you hide it and try to live a straight life, the harder it becomes

:03:51. > :03:54.to tell people. I felt depressed and suicidal and it got worse all the

:03:55. > :04:02.time. I felt worse and worse until eventually I broke and my wife and I

:04:03. > :04:06.separated. I hate what I did and the pain that I have caused and it was

:04:07. > :04:08.wrong. I hope that with it getting easier for young people to be open

:04:09. > :04:12.about their sexuality, this will happen less and less. On Whatsapp

:04:18. > :04:21.forgive him now with all the trouble she and her kids will live with

:09:07. > :09:10.a planned trip to California, but is due to take part in the first

:09:11. > :09:13.presidential televised She was diagnosed on Friday

:09:14. > :09:22.and to give an insight into the kind of heavy schedule a presidential

:09:23. > :09:25.candidate faces, her working day on Friday included appearing at two

:09:26. > :09:27.fundraisers, running a two-hour national security meeting,

:09:28. > :09:29.holding a press conference Her Republican opponents have

:09:30. > :09:32.queried her physical fitness, with the presidential candidate

:09:39. > :09:40.Islamic State militants. Here's how her health

:09:41. > :09:51.is being reported in the States. We begin with breaking news on

:09:52. > :09:56.Hillary Clinton's health. We are now learning she has been diagnosed with

:09:57. > :10:01.pneumonia. The issue came alive at a 9/11 memorial event at Ground Zero

:10:02. > :10:06.in New York. An update on Hillary Clinton, who left the 9/11 memorial

:10:07. > :10:10.service in New York early after becoming overheated, according to

:10:11. > :10:14.her campaign. She went to her daughter's apartment and has just

:10:15. > :10:18.left in front of the cameras. Breaking news. An update on

:10:19. > :10:23.presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's health. What we have just

:10:24. > :10:24.learned from an aide is that Hillary Clinton's Doctor attended to her at

:10:25. > :10:30.her home today. The doctor has put her

:10:31. > :10:32.on antibiotics which suggests it's It's a diagnosis that you can

:10:33. > :10:36.absolutely understand why someone To me right now it is

:10:37. > :10:39.a good-news-bad-news situation The good news is the basket

:10:40. > :10:43.of deplorable things The bad news is this is a pothole

:10:44. > :10:49.that has opened up and the problem for her is it feeds two

:10:50. > :10:52.storylines of Donald Trump. One about her health,

:10:53. > :10:54.does she have the stamina? But secondly it feeds the story

:10:55. > :10:57.on is she transparent? Let's speak to Scott Lucas,

:10:58. > :11:11.Professor of American Politics How big a deal is this? Oh, it is a

:11:12. > :11:19.big deal, at least for the next two or three new cycles. Americans are

:11:20. > :11:22.all concerned that their presence would be fit and confident. Donald

:11:23. > :11:30.Trump's campaign has been playing this up, first for Hillary Clinton

:11:31. > :11:34.and second to cover up that Donald Trump will not release his own

:11:35. > :11:37.medical records. Until she looks good and sounds good and ready for

:11:38. > :11:42.the debate, expect this to be the headlines about the presidential

:11:43. > :11:45.campaign. Interestingly, Donald Trump has not said anything or

:11:46. > :11:50.tweeted anything about this official news, which is not like Donald

:11:51. > :11:53.Trump, let's be honest. The speculation yesterday was that staff

:11:54. > :11:57.were holding his hands back from the keyboard to keep him from doing

:11:58. > :12:02.this. It would have looked undignified to jump in and celebrate

:12:03. > :12:07.in any way this setback for Clinton. It has never stopped him before.

:12:08. > :12:11.Right, but I think you take it up a level when you are basically

:12:12. > :12:15.revelling in the fact that your candidate is going to lose the

:12:16. > :12:19.campaign through a health issue. Do you think it is possible that she

:12:20. > :12:24.could lose this because he has pneumonia over the next two to three

:12:25. > :12:28.weeks? We don't know. We don't know how serious this is. I have a Nice

:12:29. > :12:33.with walking pneumonia with exactly that kind of coughing fit that you

:12:34. > :12:37.heard in your clip and it can be very debilitating. Hillary Clinton

:12:38. > :12:40.may not do the campaign trail for the next few days, which is one

:12:41. > :12:45.thing, but if she cannot pull off a good performance at the debate in

:12:46. > :12:48.two weeks, that is the benchmark Americans mostly set for whether or

:12:49. > :12:57.not the candidate is on the ascendancy for the White House.

:12:58. > :13:00.Thank you. Levels of violence and young offender institutions are

:13:01. > :13:06.unacceptably high. It's not just inmates and staff

:13:07. > :13:09.who say that the Government They're promising a thorough review

:13:10. > :13:12.of the system which currently sees inmates and staff facing the daily

:13:13. > :13:15.threat of beatings and stabbings. But what's life like for young

:13:16. > :13:17.people who get locked up? Our reporter Noel Philips has been

:13:18. > :13:20.speaking to young offenders as they We played his full report

:13:21. > :13:25.earlier in the programme. and description which you might not

:13:26. > :13:32.want young children to watch. In Feltham, fights happen from day

:13:33. > :13:36.to day, any time of day, over silly things like tobacco

:13:37. > :13:39.being stolen, towels being misplaced, simple little petty

:13:40. > :13:41.things that would cause inmates Stephen is 22 and knows what it's

:13:42. > :13:52.like to be locked up with some In 2012, he served time in both

:13:53. > :13:59.Feltham Young Offenders' Institition A lot of prison officers these days

:14:00. > :14:09.are young members of the public. For example, you've got

:14:10. > :14:12.a prison officer who's 24 But these young untrained qualified

:14:13. > :14:19.staff have no control at all. This video filmed on a banned mobile

:14:20. > :14:24.phone by young offenders at HMP Rochester shows just how chaotic

:14:25. > :14:31.the prison system can be. Two young men in a bloody

:14:32. > :14:34.fistfight while others look He was sent to HMP Doncaster in 2011

:14:35. > :14:47.when he was just 18. I had one fight with one guy,

:14:48. > :14:57.a 40-year-old Romanian guy. I took his pad, he caught me

:14:58. > :15:00.in his cell so I set about him and it took six guys and one

:15:01. > :15:04.screw to take me off him. And then he made a racist remark,

:15:05. > :15:07.so I went back to the pad, filled the kettle up,

:15:08. > :15:13.obviously with sugar, and went to chuck it at him,

:15:14. > :15:16.and the screw slammed the door Jamie's younger brother Nathan

:15:17. > :15:19.is serving a life sentence His mum, Debbie,

:15:20. > :15:30.tells me she's worried. What worries you most about Nathan

:15:31. > :15:32.being in a young offenders institute?

:15:33. > :15:34.That he'll get killed, basically, for what he's done,

:15:35. > :15:37.So every day, you're waking up worried?

:15:38. > :15:39.Yes, that I'm going to get that phone call.

:15:40. > :15:41.There isn't a simple solution to solving the growing

:15:42. > :15:48.A report due to be published next month by the Justice Committee

:15:49. > :15:50.will say the way in which most offenders like Jamie and Stephen

:15:51. > :15:56.are treated will not help them change.

:15:57. > :16:01.Prison isn't helping nobody, it's just making them worse.

:16:02. > :16:04.They see theirselves as a failure, they failed through the system.

:16:05. > :16:21.So they'll just go in and come back out and go in and come back out.

:16:22. > :16:30.So many comments. "It is not just youth prison, it is the prison

:16:31. > :16:33.system you should focus on and the way officers treat offenders. My arm

:16:34. > :16:37.was broken by an officer after I tried to take my own life. His

:16:38. > :16:44.actions are being protected by the Ministry of Justice." That's from

:16:45. > :16:50.Nigel. "I served a long sentence for contract fraud. I became a Samaritan

:16:51. > :16:55.and a prisoner insider rep whilst in custody. I was 37 when I was sent to

:16:56. > :17:00.prison. I'm ex-police myself and ex-central Government. I too had a

:17:01. > :17:07.narrow attitude towards prisoners, but seeing for myself I was able to

:17:08. > :17:11.witness the abuse behind the walls. Many prisoners are repeat offenders.

:17:12. > :17:14.When sentenced their punishment is a loss of liberty, plus that, it is

:17:15. > :17:20.the State's duty to keep them safe and offer them hope. ." That is from

:17:21. > :17:24.Peter, "My partner was murdered in 1989. The murderer did ten years.

:17:25. > :17:29.The man is now supported by the Government. He has a home. He has a

:17:30. > :17:34.job. And he has all his family around him. I have nothing. My life

:17:35. > :17:39.was destroyed. Focus on the victims of these crimes." I have got more

:17:40. > :17:41.comments and I will read them as we talk about this.

:17:42. > :17:45.If you want to share that full film you can find it on our programme

:17:46. > :17:48.We asked the Ministry of Justice for an interview, but

:17:49. > :17:51.Instead they told us, "The level of violence

:17:52. > :17:53.in our prisons is unacceptable especially violence

:17:54. > :17:55.against our hard-working and dedicated prison staff.

:17:56. > :17:59.We have resources in place to deal with violent or abusive behaviour.

:18:00. > :18:00.Any prisoners involved could face disciplinary action and be

:18:01. > :18:08.Serco, which runs HMP Doncaster told us, "The security and safety

:18:09. > :18:11.of staff and prisoners at HMP Doncaster is always our first

:18:12. > :18:15.concern and we have a zero tolerance approach to violence."

:18:16. > :18:18.We can talk now to Marie-Claire O'Brien, who is a prison mentor

:18:19. > :18:21.and a former offender who now works with inmates at young

:18:22. > :18:35.Paul Miller who is a former young offenders prison officer.

:18:36. > :18:38.He looked after 16 to 21-year-olds for 25 years.

:18:39. > :18:40.Conservative MP Andrew Selous, who until July was the government's

:18:41. > :18:43.And Victoria Prentis, a Conservative MP and member

:18:44. > :18:46.They're releasing a report on young offenders institutes next month.

:18:47. > :18:51.Welcome all of you. Clearly, we acknowledge it would be better if

:18:52. > :18:54.these young people weren't inside in the first place. They are. Let's

:18:55. > :18:59.talk about the conditions that they find themselves in. Tell us about

:19:00. > :19:06.your own experience from, having been inside, and also working with

:19:07. > :19:12.inmates now. Prison is there for a reason, you knowbling, nobody -- you

:19:13. > :19:16.know, nobody agrees with crime. However, you know, we have to

:19:17. > :19:21.acknowledge that prison is full of hurt people and I think we need to

:19:22. > :19:28.decide as a nation whether we want to be punitive or whether we want to

:19:29. > :19:33.be rewhat billtive. Why not both? I think prison is the punitive element

:19:34. > :19:37.taking people and children away from their families, that's the punitive

:19:38. > :19:42.elementment I think what we need to train the prison officers and the

:19:43. > :19:46.senior management team around is not all prison officers, sorry because

:19:47. > :19:49.some are naturally born with that nature and want to help prisoners

:19:50. > :19:53.turn away from crime. I had that experience myself and I was grateful

:19:54. > :19:57.for those officers. However, there is a lot of stuff going on behind

:19:58. > :20:01.those walls and I think, we're letting children down. Suicide rates

:20:02. > :20:05.have gone through the roof. Violence has gone through the roof. We really

:20:06. > :20:13.need to look at that and look at what works. Re-offending rates is 7%

:20:14. > :20:16.and the workplaced interventions. They get young people hooked on

:20:17. > :20:19.something interesting and something that they have never tried before

:20:20. > :20:24.and it raises aspirations. It let's them realise that there is a

:20:25. > :20:29.different way of life other than hurting people and they can be

:20:30. > :20:33.happier people and happy, contributing members of society. Why

:20:34. > :20:37.is it so violent inside young offenders institutions? I think more

:20:38. > :20:49.people have been sent to prison for violent offences. The culture has

:20:50. > :20:54.changed. Ears ago Years ago it would have been unheard of that a female

:20:55. > :20:59.prison officer would be assaulted. At the start of a sentence if you

:21:00. > :21:03.can say to a young man, is it brick laying you want to do, is it

:21:04. > :21:07.plastering, an electrician? If you could really focus them on getting a

:21:08. > :21:11.skill. We need 300,000 more construction workers. That gives us

:21:12. > :21:16.a chance to change the culture and presume that young man know that is

:21:17. > :21:20.we're making a serious offer and importantly, he is less likely to

:21:21. > :21:27.commit crime. The purpose of the Ministry of Justice is to prevent

:21:28. > :21:31.victims. Is that not happening in young offenders institutions across

:21:32. > :21:34.England? Well there, is what the Charlie Taylor review is about. It

:21:35. > :21:42.is about the Government looking at the system and saying it is not good

:21:43. > :21:47.enough and instead of having a prison with education to get people

:21:48. > :21:52.good, paid workful we need to keep the family link strong. Families can

:21:53. > :21:59.be unhelpful, but the family link can be important. Don't put an

:22:00. > :22:06.offender, lock him up miles from his family? We know people who keep

:22:07. > :22:11.family ties reduce their risk of re-offending by 39%. Is it as much

:22:12. > :22:15.as that? It is not specific to young offenders, but it is a real

:22:16. > :22:18.statistic and that is a really good way of helping people, not to

:22:19. > :22:21.reoffend in the future. One of the things that happens when you're in

:22:22. > :22:25.prison is that sadly you are taken away. That's part of the punitive

:22:26. > :22:29.element from those who care about you. And about half of prisoners

:22:30. > :22:34.lose touch with their family. So this is something we really have to

:22:35. > :22:38.focus on going forward. It is just one of the ways education and

:22:39. > :22:41.employment are, of course, other things that you can do to help

:22:42. > :22:45.people not reoffend, but family tie are very important. Paul, has it

:22:46. > :22:48.always been as bad as this or in your experience over 25 years, as a

:22:49. > :22:52.prison officer working with young people inside, has it got worse and

:22:53. > :22:55.if so, why? It is gradually getting worse over the years. Why? It is

:22:56. > :23:05.totally different from when I started. It is down to the staffing.

:23:06. > :23:11.Prisoners were always in the eyesight of all officers, we had

:23:12. > :23:13.time to integrate and dynamic security, we would supervise

:23:14. > :23:19.showers, we would supervise the landings and patrol the landings.

:23:20. > :23:22.Now those days are gone. It is a closed service now where people

:23:23. > :23:26.forget about it. It is emergency service. We used to think of our

:23:27. > :23:31.service as the emergency service that everybody forgot about. Unless

:23:32. > :23:35.you have been in prison, you don't know what it is like and working in

:23:36. > :23:40.the prison. Officers now are fearful walking through the gate themselves

:23:41. > :23:43.and being on the landings. They are leaving in droves. You've lost

:23:44. > :23:47.thousands of years of experienced officers over the past three or four

:23:48. > :23:50.years and you'll never get that back. Do you accept that as

:23:51. > :23:54.politicians from the ruling Conservative Party, there are not

:23:55. > :23:58.enough prison officers to keep people safe? Absolutely and that's

:23:59. > :24:01.why we are committed to get more prison officers. I have been trying

:24:02. > :24:05.to persuade Paul to go back into the Prison Service because he has that

:24:06. > :24:09.25 years service. We need experienced officers as well as new

:24:10. > :24:12.officers. We are trying to recruit them and many parts of public sector

:24:13. > :24:17.are struggling to get more people and we are not alone. It is

:24:18. > :24:21.essential. People like Paul make an I had credible difference to lives.

:24:22. > :24:25.He meets people in the street in Newcastle at the moment who he has

:24:26. > :24:28.put on the straight and narrow, they are paying a mortgage because of

:24:29. > :24:34.what he did. How did you do it? Well, you go back to the basics. We

:24:35. > :24:37.gave them self esteam, a bit of pride in themselves. Most came from

:24:38. > :24:42.backgrounds where they had no figure head in their family. They got

:24:43. > :24:46.themselves in trouble. The first set of discipline that everyone

:24:47. > :24:49.encounter was through us when they came into the jail. We would get

:24:50. > :24:52.them to make their beds in the morning, shave, how to wash, how to

:24:53. > :24:57.eat properly, basics of life that me you and you take for granted every

:24:58. > :25:03.day. You were like a father figure, weren't you? Yeah, I suppose I was.

:25:04. > :25:07.Can we address this issue, a number of people getting in touch saying,

:25:08. > :25:13."Who cares? Who cares? They did bad things. So what if prison is

:25:14. > :25:19.violent. So what." Why are you laughing? 90% of prisoners are

:25:20. > :25:23.released. It is in all of our interests to sort them out and to

:25:24. > :25:26.rehabilitate them. They are our neighbours pt they are members of

:25:27. > :25:30.our communities. It is for the victims, the future victims that we

:25:31. > :25:34.hope never become victims, that we are all, all four of us very

:25:35. > :25:39.interested in prison reform. What I was going to say earlier about the

:25:40. > :25:43.enormous pressures on particularly the young offender part of the

:25:44. > :25:48.Prison Service at the moment include some new pressures like psycho

:25:49. > :25:51.active substances which we really should mention particularly when we

:25:52. > :25:57.talk about assaults in prison. These new drugs are having a very, very

:25:58. > :26:02.bad effect on control within prisons and it has been difficult to catch

:26:03. > :26:08.up with the new drugs that are being created.

:26:09. > :26:23.How is that happening in the first place? Sorry to ask a naive

:26:24. > :26:28.question. You will get rotten ones in the barrel. They used to throw

:26:29. > :26:32.them in packages over the walls. We used to have patrols on every day

:26:33. > :26:38.that would check before movement. They cut that. They know that. They

:29:04. > :29:05.The Director of England Cricket, Andrew Strauss, says

:29:06. > :29:20.Let's talk to Jonathan Agnew. So you will see have various comments from

:29:21. > :29:24.supporters and other high-profile figures saying that this decision

:29:25. > :29:28.particularly of the captain, Eoin Morgan, is looking in moral courage?

:29:29. > :29:33.Well, that's what people are saying. I think what we have to do is to go

:29:34. > :29:37.back about six weeks to when the ECB actually got the tour back onned

:29:38. > :29:43.road and a couple of months ago it looked like the tour was abandoned

:29:44. > :29:46.completely, there was a terrorist outrage in Dhaka, if you asked me a

:29:47. > :29:49.week after that, I would have said there was no way the tour would

:29:50. > :29:54.happen. They have put things in place. They have got more and more

:29:55. > :29:58.people on the side and the ECB gave the assurance that if any player

:29:59. > :30:02.pulled out, it would not be held against them. That's a mistake. It

:30:03. > :30:07.sounds a nice thing to say at the time and you are cajoling people and

:30:08. > :30:10.you are trying to get them on the plane basically, but what it has

:30:11. > :30:14.done, of course, it left the ECB in a hole. You know, I think many

:30:15. > :30:19.people feel that the captain, Eoin Morgan should be on the tour. He has

:30:20. > :30:26.got the words of Andrew Strauss ringing in his ears saying, "Nothing

:30:27. > :30:30.will be held against you Eoin, the Champions Trophy and mini World Cup

:30:31. > :30:33.is next summer." Are they really going to sack him? I don't think

:30:34. > :30:36.they can despite what people are saying, it would be wrong, surely.

:30:37. > :30:40.He has gone away and thought about it long and hard. He has been

:30:41. > :30:43.reassured that it wouldn't be held against him if he did pull out and

:30:44. > :30:49.now people are demanding that he should be sacked. Ben Stokes posted

:30:50. > :30:53.on Twitter, he will back not just my captain, but any fellow team-mates

:30:54. > :30:59.decision on matters like this. I wonder if the captain does not go,

:31:00. > :31:04.but the rest of the team do, I know Alex Hayles isn't going, does that

:31:05. > :31:09.undermine Eoin Morgan's authority on the field of play?

:31:10. > :31:13.I don't think it does. People may disagree with me. That's fine. What

:31:14. > :31:17.will happen actually with the tour is this one day squad will play in

:31:18. > :31:21.Bangladesh, and they will play three games and then they come backment

:31:22. > :31:25.they come back for a couple of months. They have Christmas. They

:31:26. > :31:32.have New Year. Then that one day squad pack up and they go off to

:31:33. > :31:36.India. It might be a new squad. Presumably Eoin Morgan will be

:31:37. > :31:41.captain of that team, they will meet at Heathrow Airport and off they'll

:31:42. > :31:45.go on a separate tour with this Champions Trophy now only eight

:31:46. > :31:49.games away or whatever it maybe. These things, I have to say, having

:31:50. > :31:55.done this job for a while, this happens a lot before tours, not

:31:56. > :32:01.necessarily people dropping out, but uncertainty, speculation, issues,

:32:02. > :32:06.political issues, unfortunately, the cricket team go to tricky places and

:32:07. > :32:10.it is the way the cricket world is formed, it is formed on the Empire.

:32:11. > :32:14.That's a chat for another day. The talk of tours going ahead or not is

:32:15. > :32:19.something that in the cricket world we are used. There will be massive

:32:20. > :32:23.security thrown at it. I would accept that terrorism itself has

:32:24. > :32:27.changed over the last few years and obviously so and security changed

:32:28. > :32:31.too. It is stronger now. We are used to going on tours which we have an

:32:32. > :32:36.armed guard sleeping outside our bedroom door. The streets will be

:32:37. > :32:40.cleared. A convoy will go through and the cricket will be played.

:32:41. > :32:43.Should it be played under those circumstances, is it easy for

:32:44. > :32:45.players to put that to one side? Eoin Morgan would say no and that's

:32:46. > :32:57.what he has based this on. He will want to go out there and

:32:58. > :32:59.play cricket to the best of his ability, without distractions and

:33:00. > :33:06.without worrying about what is happening around the place. Some

:33:07. > :33:10.players are better at dealing with that than others. The ECB must have

:33:11. > :33:17.had conversations with at least 25 people. The players, the managers,

:33:18. > :33:23.the coaching staff, even up to 30 people. Only two have said no. They

:33:24. > :33:28.have managed to get 90% of them on the plane, so that is pretty good.

:33:29. > :33:33.If you went out onto the streets, you'll probably find two people out

:33:34. > :33:41.of or 30 who don't have that same view. Where we were a few weeks ago,

:33:42. > :33:45.I think it is miraculous getting so many people on the plane. Thank you.

:33:46. > :33:47.Still to come: Have you worked it out yet?

:33:48. > :33:50.Which of the cubes on the right can be made from the cube

:33:51. > :33:54.That's one of the questions pupils taking the 11-plus

:38:41. > :38:44.comments on young offenders institutions. Plenty of you with

:38:45. > :38:50.relevant experience and that gives us more of an idea of what is going

:38:51. > :38:54.on, which really helpful. In this email, my husband works in a young

:38:55. > :38:57.offenders institution and he has 30 years experience in the prison

:38:58. > :39:02.service. During this time he has worked with some of this country's

:39:03. > :39:08.most notorious offenders. But recently he has been the victim of

:39:09. > :39:11.and witnessed more violence than he has in his entire service. There is

:39:12. > :39:14.no rehabilitation because there are not the resources to provide it any

:39:15. > :39:21.more and staffing levels are so low that violence is rife. Inmates are

:39:22. > :39:28.left to fight among themselves until staff arrive from other parts of the

:39:29. > :39:33.jail to back up the one or two staff left in charge of 40 inmates. They

:39:34. > :39:42.don't have sufficient staff to conduct searches, leaving inmates

:39:43. > :39:46.with weapons and mobile phones and so on. The prison service will not

:39:47. > :39:51.pay for the technology to block mobile phones. And this one. The

:39:52. > :39:55.prison service is corrupt and barbaric. I have been told of the

:39:56. > :40:00.amount of drugs that get in every day through drones. A legal high

:40:01. > :40:05.known as spice is readily available and makes inmates ill. Heroin is

:40:06. > :40:08.also available. I have tried to communicate this to prison staff on

:40:09. > :40:13.many occasions to express my deep concern over my son's mental health.

:40:14. > :40:16.What they have told me at what is really happening to my son is very

:40:17. > :40:18.different. He has informed me of the violence. He says on one occasion

:40:19. > :40:34.prison staff turned a blind eye while three men

:40:35. > :40:37.entered a young man's cell and beat him senseless. The warden would not

:40:38. > :40:39.open the door when asked to buy my son and another inmate. Something

:40:40. > :40:41.has got to change. And Andrew says what about the prison staff

:40:42. > :40:43.assaulted every day verbally and physically? We don't have sprays,

:40:44. > :40:47.tasers and body armour, just white shirts. Zero tolerance? That is a

:40:48. > :40:53.joke. We are told it is part of the job. Three staff to a house block is

:40:54. > :40:56.no joke. Thank you for those, really useful. If you would like to watch

:41:01. > :41:02.The body which represents the British music industry says

:41:03. > :41:08.YouTube still isn't giving artists enough money for their songs.

:41:09. > :41:11.More of us now use YouTube to listen to music than any other method

:41:12. > :41:15.including radio, CDs and streaming services.

:41:16. > :41:18.YouTube say they've paid out more than ?2.3 billion to the music

:41:19. > :41:22.But should they be paying more for hosting songs like this?

:41:38. > :41:41.# Oh, oh, oh, oh, I'm feeling drunk and high.

:41:42. > :41:49.# I've got all I need when I've got you and I.

:42:24. > :42:46.BBC Radio 1 Newsbeat's music reporter Steve

:42:47. > :42:59.What are UK Music saying? Basically that YouTube is not paying enough

:43:00. > :43:03.money back to artists Paul the views they get on their website. YouTube

:43:04. > :43:08.is so big and now owned by Google so it is way more popular than radio

:43:09. > :43:15.and CDs, and proportionately it is not giving enough money back for the

:43:16. > :43:20.music they show. What would you say about the state of UK music

:43:21. > :43:26.industry? It is in fine fettle, fine health. UK Music say British artists

:43:27. > :43:31.contribute ?4.1 million to the UK economy, the same as the year

:43:32. > :43:39.before, helped in 2015 by Adele's album Hello and her album 25. One in

:43:40. > :43:45.six albums around the world are by a British artist. We do have a slight

:43:46. > :43:50.fall in the sales of recorded music, so CDs and physical copies, and also

:43:51. > :43:55.live music. That industry has dropped slightly as well but it has

:43:56. > :44:02.been offset by the huge rise in streaming services like Spotify,

:44:03. > :44:07.which is increasingly where we go to get our music. What are you cheap

:44:08. > :44:16.saying? You tube disagree with UK Music, unsurprisingly. -- YouTube.

:44:17. > :44:20.They are very keen to make the point that they are an advertisement based

:44:21. > :44:25.service, not subscription based. It is free, we use it all the time. The

:44:26. > :44:31.deal is signed with an artist, which is kept very secret, and half of the

:44:32. > :44:36.advertising revenue before an artist's video goes back to the

:44:37. > :44:40.artist itself. We're not talking about Adele, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith,

:44:41. > :44:47.who are all making a lot of money because they are successful. UK

:44:48. > :44:51.Music wants to stress this is about emerging artists, artists who need

:44:52. > :44:56.to make money. In this day and age they can't do that traditionally by

:44:57. > :45:00.selling music in a shop. If you are an emerging artist, you're not going

:45:01. > :45:04.to have the same kind of adverts status, so you will get less money

:45:05. > :45:07.from YouTube. Of course. YouTube so they put out billions of pounds into

:45:08. > :45:12.the music industry but when that trickles down to the artists, they

:45:13. > :45:17.are getting next to nothing. An artist that is trying to make a

:45:18. > :45:22.career, make a go of it, obviously wants to try and get money from

:45:23. > :45:25.whatever resource it can and UK Music wants Google to give them a

:45:26. > :45:30.chance, a bit more money because they have got it. Thank you. Thank

:45:31. > :45:35.you. Did I say that enough? Plans to reintroduce grammar

:46:08. > :46:11.great to be here. You don't like this plan, do you? What is really

:46:12. > :46:16.important is that we have good schools for all our pupils. No one

:46:17. > :46:20.will disagree with that? Well, I think that having an additional

:46:21. > :46:24.number of grammar schools and let's not forget, I've got two grammar

:46:25. > :46:28.schools in my constituency. I fought for them to expand. I think they

:46:29. > :46:32.should expand, so I'm not against grammar schools, but what I'm

:46:33. > :46:34.worried is about is we need the right mix of schools across the

:46:35. > :46:40.country and that includes technical schools. It includes school which

:46:41. > :46:43.can provide a mixture of academic study and technical studiment we're

:46:44. > :46:47.going to have a university technical college in my constituency shortly

:46:48. > :46:54.and that's the sort of model we need to see too. Does that mean that

:46:55. > :46:59.you're happy with the expansion of grammars and the expansion of being

:47:00. > :47:04.able to select on ability if there was the expansion of technical

:47:05. > :47:09.schools? That's one thing I would be pleased about, but it is not the

:47:10. > :47:14.only thing. I'm worried about the binary choice between a grammar

:47:15. > :47:17.school and a secondary school. That's unsettling for pupils and

:47:18. > :47:21.their parents whacht is better is a new exam system and the option to

:47:22. > :47:25.enable a child to get to a grammar school at other times during the

:47:26. > :47:30.year. For example if they were 14 or 16... Well, that's going to be part

:47:31. > :47:35.of the plans? I hope so. They're not saying there won't be the focus on

:47:36. > :47:40.taking a test at 11, you can have a go at 14 and 16? We need to make

:47:41. > :47:44.sure that test is fair and all pupils will be able to take it

:47:45. > :47:51.really with the sort of assurance that it will be good for them. OK. I

:47:52. > :47:54.want to talk about how you make a test fair. I can't tell yet if

:47:55. > :48:00.you're going to vote against the plans as they currently stand?

:48:01. > :48:04.Well... Be clear. As they stood last week, I wasn't impressed. As they

:48:05. > :48:09.are starting to emerge, I'm getting more content, but we will be hearing

:48:10. > :48:13.a lot more today both when I have a meeting with just teen Greening

:48:14. > :48:17.later and also when she addresses the House of Commons this afternoon.

:48:18. > :48:21.So we'll get more detail because we need more detail. This is a complex

:48:22. > :48:25.issue and what we don't want to do is sort of muddle up really six

:48:26. > :48:29.years of good reform and what I want to see for example in addition to

:48:30. > :48:33.what I have already said that that grammar schools can fit comfortable

:48:34. > :48:37.within multi-academy trusts, something we're looking at on our

:48:38. > :48:43.committee. It is not really a binary choice, there isn't just grammars

:48:44. > :48:45.and comprehensives, there is academies, Faith schools, grammars,

:48:46. > :48:51.etcetera, etcetera? Well, that would apply to certain parts of the

:48:52. > :48:57.country, but not all parts. This package also includes some changes

:48:58. > :49:01.to Faith schools because the 50% test in terms of entry is going to

:49:02. > :49:07.be abandoned so all children could become, could go to a school with

:49:08. > :49:11.Catholic leaning so to speak. So, there is a lot happening here. I

:49:12. > :49:17.think we've got to calibrate it properly so we end up with a fluid

:49:18. > :49:21.and holistic education system. Fluid because children can effectively go

:49:22. > :49:25.to the places which are going to suit them and their ambitions and

:49:26. > :49:29.their aptitudes and holistic so that all children can get a choice of

:49:30. > :49:33.what they really need, but that the education system provides the

:49:34. > :49:38.workforce that that country will need in the years to come. Is there

:49:39. > :49:41.any evidence that grammar schools are more successful than

:49:42. > :49:45.comprehensives at getting pupils into the top universities for

:49:46. > :49:49.example? Well, yes, that certainly is probably the case. Certainly in

:49:50. > :49:53.certain grammar schools, but I think the real question to ask are grammar

:49:54. > :49:58.schools successful at solving the social mobility issues? Is there any

:49:59. > :50:01.compelling evidence so far that that is happening? Is there? I don't

:50:02. > :50:06.think there is. So what we need to do is make sure the new approach to

:50:07. > :50:10.grammar schools actually does answer the question about social mobility.

:50:11. > :50:14.You will know that Theresa May is going to make sure that a proportion

:50:15. > :50:20.of children from poorer backgrounds will get into the new grammars?

:50:21. > :50:24.That's certainly the sort of theme I've heard and the question of qo

:50:25. > :50:29.fas and so forth, but the question is which pupils get to the grammar

:50:30. > :50:32.schools? We have too many areas in the north of England for example,

:50:33. > :50:38.but in other parts of the country where actually our primary schools

:50:39. > :50:43.aren't functioning properly so the output is not good for the secondary

:50:44. > :50:47.school as it stands. So we've got to improve the primary schools too to

:50:48. > :50:52.make the system work. I don't know how you make the 11-plus test fair,

:50:53. > :50:55.tutor-proof, wealthier parents can afford to send their kids to private

:50:56. > :51:02.tutors to make sure they pass that exam? That's a good point and we all

:51:03. > :51:08.know that tutoring is pretty endemic in the areas where grammar schools

:51:09. > :51:12.exist. I think that that is an illustration actually of the

:51:13. > :51:16.problem. I also think that some primary schools aren't really

:51:17. > :51:20.focussing on the kind of tests that might be for a grammar school in the

:51:21. > :51:25.future so we might to get that right too. Let's remember one important

:51:26. > :51:30.point and it is this - 16, 17, 18-year-olds in this country in

:51:31. > :51:34.general, 20% of them actually aren't really up to level two in either

:51:35. > :51:40.literacy or mathematics. That's really worrying. It is worrying

:51:41. > :51:47.because it is a fifth of our young people are leaving school with a

:51:48. > :51:50.fairly, well, basically casual understanding of both those areas.

:51:51. > :51:53.We need to addresses that and that's one of the top priorities and I

:51:54. > :51:55.think it should be one of the top priorities of the Government. Well,

:51:56. > :51:58.it is not so far. And do you think the grammar school plan then could

:51:59. > :52:02.be a distraction? Well, that's what I have been saying in the last week

:52:03. > :52:08.or so. I do think that focussing just on grammar schools will be a

:52:09. > :52:12.distraction from those other issues which I have really talked about

:52:13. > :52:17.already. Let's look at the questions pupils will take when it comes to

:52:18. > :52:22.the 11-plus, I'm not going to ask you for answer because I maybe

:52:23. > :52:26.accused of being sexist. Which of the cubes on the right are made from

:52:27. > :52:31.the cube net on left? Our audience are seeing this as well. Which of

:52:32. > :52:37.the cubes on the right make up the cube net on the left? Well, I

:52:38. > :52:43.haven't got my glasses. Oh well, do you want to borrow mine? Providing

:52:44. > :52:48.they are plus ones. Hang on a sec, let's see if these work for you!

:52:49. > :52:52.See if they're any good. I'm short-sighted, what about you? I'm

:52:53. > :52:58.going to find out in a minute! That made a slight improvement. OK. I'm

:52:59. > :53:06.going to answer possibly number, that one. That's A, B, C, D. I'm

:53:07. > :53:12.going to give it a B. It is D! It is D. Blame it on the specs. I

:53:13. > :53:19.will! But they are quite small. They're

:53:20. > :53:32.spec savers! You are the chair, aren't you? I am.

:53:33. > :53:33.I thought you looked at me funny. No, I was just thinking about the

:53:34. > :53:41.glasses! Now for something uplifting. That

:53:42. > :53:58.sounded like an ininsult at you! Now for something truly uplifting:

:53:59. > :54:13.hundreds of school pupils serenaded their teacher

:54:14. > :54:15.who is seriously ill with cancer outside his home in Tennessee

:54:16. > :54:34.in the United States. # To be overcome by your presence. #

:54:35. > :54:34.That's beautiful

:54:35. > :54:49.Those students gathered on the lawn while Ben Ellis,

:54:50. > :54:52.looked on with family from an open window.

:54:53. > :54:58.More than four hundred students drove to Ellis's house to sing songs

:54:59. > :55:01.Another teacher at the school revealed it was a spur

:55:02. > :55:05.Students were in the middle of class but, in her words, "dropped

:55:06. > :55:07.everything for a lesson in life, love, community and compassion".

:55:08. > :55:09.Yesterday was Britain's most successful day ever

:55:10. > :55:12.at the Paralympics - with a total 21 medals -

:55:13. > :55:14.eight of them gold - on the fourth day of competition in

:55:15. > :55:30.We can talk to Ellie Simmonds' mum. Ellie will be competing in the 200

:55:31. > :55:39.meters individual medley SM6 tonight. Her disability is

:55:40. > :55:49.classified as dwarfism. We can speak to the mum of Jessica-Jane

:55:50. > :55:56.Applegate. Jessica has won bronze and yesterday won silver in the

:55:57. > :56:00.freestyle event. She has Asperger's syndrome.

:56:01. > :56:06.Thank you both very much for talking to us. Dawn, I wonder first of all

:56:07. > :56:12.how you feel about your daughter's performance so far? She has been

:56:13. > :56:16.absolutely incredible. I can't wait to get her home and have a big

:56:17. > :56:21.cuddle, but she has got another two events yet. One on Wednesday and one

:56:22. > :56:25.on Saturday. But she is doing everybody back home so proud. She

:56:26. > :56:29.has got no family out there with her, but I know the British

:56:30. > :56:34.Paralympic team are right behind her. They're amazing. They are like

:56:35. > :56:40.a big family on tour. That sounds brilliant. Val, how is Ellie feeling

:56:41. > :56:43.ahead of her race today? I'm not too sure this morning because it is

:56:44. > :56:48.still early, but yesterday, she having feeling good. You know, she

:56:49. > :56:54.knows she has got a really tough job on her hands these next couple of

:56:55. > :57:01.days, but she fit, functioning well and ready to go. She was so

:57:02. > :57:07.successful at London 2012, I wonder if that adds pressure or makes her

:57:08. > :57:12.feel more invincible, what would you say Val? It probably adds pressure.

:57:13. > :57:18.Getting to the top is one thing and staying there is a lot, lot harder.

:57:19. > :57:23.Her classification is so strong. You know, so many different countries

:57:24. > :57:28.have got exceptional swimmers that, you know, she has got a really tough

:57:29. > :57:33.job on her hands and she knows it. But she knows people have

:57:34. > :57:38.expectations of her. You can't, but help feel the pressure. Dawn, I

:57:39. > :57:43.haven't got much time left. What do you say to your daughter in terms of

:57:44. > :57:50.just encouragement? Well, what will be, will be. We absolutely are proud

:57:51. > :57:56.of everything that she does. Win, just get in there. It is so amazing

:57:57. > :57:59.and every single one of them are inspirational and as a country, we

:58:00. > :58:04.are proud of every single one of them. Thank you very much, Dawn. I

:58:05. > :58:06.really appreciate it. Val, thank you. All the best to your daughters,

:58:07. > :58:09.thank you. On the programme tomorrow,

:58:10. > :58:11.an interview with the legend Thanks for watching today. We're

:58:12. > :58:31.back tomorrow at 9am. Even at lunch, you see them

:58:32. > :58:39.running around, doing interviews They're really engaging

:58:40. > :58:44.with the world around them. And it builds so many skills,

:58:45. > :58:48.researching stories,
