:01:51.:01:56.

Hillary Clinton has cancelled a campaign trip to California

:01:57.:01:59.

after being diagnosed The US Democratic candidate,

:02:00.:02:01.

who's 68, became ill during a ceremony to honour

:02:02.:02:04.

the victims of the Later she told reporters

:02:05.:02:06.

she was feeling great. Her Republican opponent,

:02:07.:02:09.

Donald Trump, has regularly -- yet to comment on this particular

:02:10.:02:18.

episode but has in the past question whether she has enough stamina to be

:02:19.:02:19.

President. This has become America's most

:02:20.:02:22.

solemn national day, the commemorations marking

:02:23.:02:27.

the anniversary of the attacks This year's event had already become

:02:28.:02:29.

more politicised than usual because of the presence

:02:30.:02:33.

at Ground Zero of the two presidential candidates,

:02:34.:02:36.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. But it's these unexpected images

:02:37.:02:38.

on the fringes of the service that could turn it into one of the most

:02:39.:02:44.

memorable and talked-about moments Hillary Clinton, frail, stumbling,

:02:45.:02:47.

and seemingly almost fainting, as she was carried

:02:48.:02:51.

into a waiting vehicle. Not long afterwards,

:02:52.:02:54.

she emerged from her daughter's apartment in New York making light

:02:55.:03:01.

of what had happened. Her campaign released a statement

:03:02.:03:04.

saying that after 90 minutes at Ground Zero, she felt

:03:05.:03:10.

overheated and departed. cough, Hillary Clinton was diagnosed

:03:11.:03:11.

with pneumonia by her cough, Hillary Clinton was diagnosed

:03:12.:03:29.

with pneumonia by her She was put on antibiotics

:03:30.:03:32.

and advised to rest Her doctor said she was overheated

:03:33.:03:35.

and dehydrated from the 9/11 event Donald Trump has tried to make

:03:36.:03:46.

Hillary Clinton's stamina an issue But today he tried

:03:47.:03:52.

a new weapon, reticence. What first seemed like images that

:03:53.:03:55.

could damage her campaign may be seen in a different light

:03:56.:04:00.

given her diagnosis with pneumonia. Our correspondent Jane

:04:01.:04:03.

Frances-Kelly is here. What impact might this have over the

:04:04.:04:14.

coming weeks? Nobody can pretend this wasn't a very bad weekend for

:04:15.:04:18.

Hillary Clinton. On Friday she said that half of Donald Trump's

:04:19.:04:24.

supporters were deplorable comet xenophobes, homophobes, she alleged,

:04:25.:04:30.

and she later apologised. On Sunday she attended the Ground Zero

:04:31.:04:35.

ceremony, which is a very solemn ceremony in American national life.

:04:36.:04:40.

Barring very ill health she probably couldn't have got out of it but she

:04:41.:04:45.

did attend and it was very hot. Her supporters say it was very hot and

:04:46.:04:49.

it was understandable that you might have fainted afterwards, because she

:04:50.:04:55.

has had a gruelling timetable. She did appear all right, I suppose. She

:04:56.:05:00.

seemed in reasonable health when she emerged from Chelsea's apartment.

:05:01.:05:05.

She tried to make light of it. But it is very damaging because she has

:05:06.:05:10.

got a trust issue among many voters. Some would say what is she hiding?

:05:11.:05:17.

Has she got an underlying serious health issue? Her doctor released in

:05:18.:05:22.

2015 some records saying that there is no underlying health issue.

:05:23.:05:28.

Obviously the Republicans will or can make more of an issue from this.

:05:29.:05:35.

Donald Trump has been actually quite reticent, as Nick said, and that is

:05:36.:05:39.

because people in glass houses should not throw stones. He is aware

:05:40.:05:44.

that he is 70. Nobody really knows what his health is like. His doctor

:05:45.:05:50.

released a very bland statement saying that he will be the

:05:51.:05:53.

healthiest President America has ever seen. That doesn't really tell

:05:54.:05:56.

you very much. Thank you. Joanna Gosling is in the BBC

newsroom with a summary Syrian rebel groups have

:06:02.:06:04.

expressed strong reservations about the ceasefire brokered

:06:05.:06:08.

by the US and Russia, which is due to come

:06:09.:06:11.

into effect this evening. It comes after a weekend

:06:12.:06:13.

of airstrikes, where more civilians Meanwhile, aid agencies

:06:14.:06:15.

are preparing to take emergency supplies to besieged

towns and villages, At the time for the truth draws

:06:21.:06:30.

closer, the intense fighting continues. This is the aftermath of

:06:31.:06:35.

this weekend's air strikes. In Aleppo, at least 18 civilian lives

:06:36.:06:40.

were lost in two days, and on Saturday more than 60 people were

:06:41.:06:44.

killed in the rebel held city of Idlib. In one incident, a busy

:06:45.:06:50.

market full of shoppers preparing for the Eid holiday was struck. The

:06:51.:06:55.

US Russian brokered ceasefire is due to begin on Monday at sunset but

:06:56.:06:59.

already many rebel groups have expressed major reservations about

:07:00.:07:02.

the truce. One of the strongest of those groups stopped short of

:07:03.:07:07.

explicitly saying it would not come by with the terms of the deal, but

:07:08.:07:12.

attacked it in a statement. A spokesman said:

:07:13.:07:30.

Under the plan, if the ceasefire holds for a week, then the US and

:07:31.:07:36.

Russia will coordinate air strikes against Islamist militants across

:07:37.:07:40.

Syria. It will also aim to help hundreds of thousands of trapped

:07:41.:07:45.

civilians caught in the crossfire, opening aid corridors to besieged

:07:46.:07:49.

areas. Our immediate priority will be to bring in life-saving

:07:50.:07:53.

assistance, for example food and medical supplies. That is what is

:07:54.:07:57.

needed right now. Then we really need to look at the mental health

:07:58.:08:00.

and the emotional well-being of children. That you cannot do by just

:08:01.:08:04.

dropping off food baskets. We need to be able to get in there and stay

:08:05.:08:08.

in there and deliver the kinds of programmes that can really help

:08:09.:08:11.

people recover from being under siege for years. Syria's five-year

:08:12.:08:17.

civil war has killed hundreds of thousands of people and displaced 11

:08:18.:08:22.

million. Some believe that while this deal is fragile, it is the best

:08:23.:08:26.

hope of ending the massacre on the ground. Katrina Renton, BBC News.

:08:27.:08:31.

More than 200 religious leaders from faiths across the UK have urged

:08:32.:08:34.

the Prime Minister to do more to help refugees fleeing conflict

:08:35.:08:37.

They say the current immigration rules are too rigid,

:08:38.:08:40.

The Home Office says it's committed to resettling 20,000

:08:41.:08:45.

Syrian refugees by 2020, and is trying to speed up

:08:46.:08:48.

the movement of unaccompanied children.

:08:49.:08:52.

Scotland Yard has launched a new appeal for witnesses

:08:53.:08:54.

after the DNA of a woman was found close to where Stephen Lawrence

:08:55.:08:57.

Detectives recovered new evidence from the strap of a bag

:08:58.:09:02.

found near the bus stop where the 18-year-old student

:09:03.:09:04.

Police say improvements in forensic testing have led

:09:05.:09:08.

Stephen Lawrence was murdered by a group of white men

:09:09.:09:13.

in an unprovoked racist attack in Eltham in 1993.

:09:14.:09:19.

There are warnings from South Korea that North Korea is ready to conduct

:09:20.:09:22.

Government sources in Seoul say aerial photographs

:09:23.:09:29.

of the North Korean test site in a mountainous region

:09:30.:09:32.

indicate that only two of three test tunnels have so far been used.

:09:33.:09:39.

The Ministry of Defence says it's investigating claims in The Sun

:09:40.:09:42.

newspaper that an officer in the Coldstream Guards snorted

:09:43.:09:44.

a powder-like substance from a ceremonial sword

:09:45.:09:46.

while on duty inside St James's Palace.

:09:47.:09:48.

It says the army expects all personnel to stick to its high

:09:49.:09:52.

standards and anyone found to fall short is disciplined robustly.

:09:53.:10:00.

Whatsapp is free. We are going to give you an insight into young

offenders institutions. Clearly some of you will think if you can't do

:10:28.:10:31.

the time, don't do the crime. They are where they are and you will be

:10:32.:10:34.

very interested to see what life is like for some of these young people.

:10:35.:10:39.

This tweet comes in. I don't think most of the public know what goes on

:10:40.:10:43.

in prisons at all. They seem to think it is fun. This from Scott.

:10:44.:10:47.

Rehabilitation is one thing but there are a lot of ordinary

:10:48.:10:50.

law-abiding people are getting fed up with prisoners, adult or

:10:51.:11:01.

juvenile, bleating on about their rights. Prison is a deterrent. And

:11:02.:11:04.

from Dave. Someone has got to take the bull stables -- pool tables and

:11:05.:11:11.

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

:11:12.:11:20.

don't do -- if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. It is

:11:21.:11:21.

simple. Thank you for those. Jessica Creighton is at

:11:22.:11:24.

the BBC Sports Centre. Great Britain won eight gold medals

:11:25.:11:35.

and 28 medals in all for a super Sunday for the team. Richard

:11:36.:11:39.

Whitehead was successful on the track, defending his T42200 metres

:11:40.:11:43.

title and team-mates Dave Henson was third. A good day in the water as

:11:44.:11:49.

well. Rachel Morris won one of three British rowing gold medals in the

:11:50.:11:54.

arms shoulders single sculls. Afterwards she spoke to the sports

:11:55.:11:58.

correspondent Andy Swift. I went out to raise my race and not their race

:11:59.:12:02.

and I followed my wristband and it worked. We could see how emotional

:12:03.:12:04.

you were. Tell us what it was like at the end. A mixture of

:12:05.:12:30.

emotion and chucking up at the same time! It was great. Some really

:12:31.:12:33.

inspiring stories from the athletes involved in the Paralympics. The

:12:34.:12:34.

Egyptian table tennis player Ibrahim Magag do is one of those. He holds

:12:35.:12:38.

the paddle in his mouth and flicks the ball with his foot to serve. It

:12:39.:12:40.

is not just as sporting ability but his attitude to life that has

:12:41.:12:43.

impressed people. He says that disability is not in arms and legs.

:12:44.:12:45.

The disability is not to persevere in whatever you would like to do.

:12:46.:12:48.

Incredible. A friend of mine was tweeting pictures at the weekend of

:12:49.:12:51.

him. She said showed this to any child and tell them what is

:12:52.:12:53.

possible. Anybody who says they can't do that should look at this

:12:54.:12:56.

guy and it would inspire you. It is what sport is about. We have some

:12:57.:13:00.

tennis for you as well. Stanislas Wawrinka is the new US Open

:13:01.:13:05.

champion. But possibly not that big a shock when he beat the world

:13:06.:13:10.

number one Novak Djokovic. But his fitness has been off recently. He

:13:11.:13:14.

went out of the Olympics early if you weeks ago, as you will remember,

:13:15.:13:19.

and before that he lost in the third round of Wimbledon. And in the

:13:20.:13:22.

run-up to this US Open he was recovering from a wrist injury. He

:13:23.:13:28.

reached the final after two opponent retired injured and one pulled out

:13:29.:13:32.

before the match. But Stanislas Wawrinka, a brilliant performance to

:13:33.:13:37.

win in four sets. He is now 31 and this is his third Grand Slam title.

:13:38.:13:42.

Being 31, he is the second oldest winner of the tournament. An

:13:43.:13:47.

interesting decision has arisen in the cricket. As you might know,

:13:48.:13:53.

Captain Eoin Morgan has decided to pull out. Just give you some

:13:54.:14:01.

background on this, the opening batsman Alex Hales has also pulled

:14:02.:14:04.

out of the tour of Bangladesh which was due to go ahead in October. Both

:14:05.:14:09.

of the players have decided it is not quite safe enough because of an

:14:10.:14:12.

attack that killed 20 people back in July. Morgan and Alex Hales have

:14:13.:14:17.

said they don't feel comfortable. What does that mean? For the

:14:18.:14:22.

director of cricket, Andrew Strauss, it will not affect future selection

:14:23.:14:27.

in the team. It is not expected that Morgan will lose his captaincy and

:14:28.:14:31.

they have both had support from their team-mates. Ben Stokes tweeted

:14:32.:14:34.

last night that he will always back his captain and the decisions of

:14:35.:14:38.

team-mates on decisions like this. He has urged us to respect their

:14:39.:14:44.

important choice. The ECB did give players a choice. Withdrawals like

:14:45.:14:49.

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

:14:50.:14:54.

you. We would be interested to hear your views on that. Michael Vaughan

:14:55.:14:59.

has said that Eoin Morgan has made a to mistake in this decision as a

:15:00.:15:06.

captain. If you ask people in your team to do something you will not

:15:07.:15:09.

do, that could undermine your authority.

:15:10.:15:12.

Levels of violence in young offender institutions have been described

:15:13.:15:15.

as unacceptably high, with inmates and staff

:15:16.:15:16.

facing the daily threat of beatings and stabbings.

:15:17.:15:18.

The Government is promising a thorough review of the system.

:15:19.:15:21.

But what's life like for young people who get locked up?

:15:22.:15:23.

Our reporter Noel Philips has been speaking to young offenders

:15:24.:15:26.

as they reveal the impact of violence.

:15:27.:15:27.

This film includes some graphic footage and description

:15:28.:15:29.

which you might not want young children to watch.

:15:30.:15:31.

Are Britain's young offenders institutions in crisis?

:15:32.:15:48.

With self-harm, suicide and violent assault at a record high, many say

:15:49.:15:50.

You're just sending them into a cage with other...

:15:51.:15:57.

It's a jungle where you have to have animal instincts

:15:58.:16:01.

Politicians are aware of the problem.

:16:02.:16:11.

The Government launched a review of the entire youth justice system,

:16:12.:16:14.

headed by renowned former headteacher Charlie Taylor,

:16:15.:16:17.

and there is a Parliamentary inquiry looking at the same issues.

:16:18.:16:22.

He caught me in his cell, so I set about him and it took

:16:23.:16:29.

six guys and one screw to take me off him.

:16:30.:16:41.

Seven years ago, this unit at Feltham Young Offenders'

:16:42.:16:45.

Institution in West London was opened by the then

:16:46.:16:47.

Justice Secretary, Jack Straw, and former London Mayor Boris

:16:48.:16:49.

If an institution like this can deal with young offenders,

:16:50.:16:55.

put them back on the right track, that will save our society,

:16:56.:16:58.

save taxpayers loads of money in the long term.

:16:59.:17:04.

It was a project aimed at cutting reoffending, but campaigners

:17:05.:17:06.

say despite promises, little has been achieved.

:17:07.:17:11.

In Feltham, fights happen from day to day, any time of day,

:17:12.:17:15.

over silly things like tobacco being stolen, towels

:17:16.:17:17.

being misplaced, simple little petty things that would cause inmates

:17:18.:17:23.

Stephen is 22, and knows what it's like to be locked up with some

:17:24.:17:32.

In 2012, he was sent to Feltham Young Offenders,

:17:33.:17:37.

a prison with a notorious reputation for violent assaults.

:17:38.:17:42.

When I got there, it did live up to its reputation, because literally

:17:43.:17:45.

every day I was there, you would see a fight immediately

:17:46.:17:48.

Fights were happening all the time, just literally all the time.

:17:49.:17:58.

Stephen ended up in Feltham after committing his

:17:59.:18:00.

He was one of 1,500 people across England sent to prison

:18:01.:18:07.

Basically it started off with just saying,

:18:08.:18:14.

I was just interested in going to see what it was all about, really.

:18:15.:18:20.

In Leeds, 23-year-old Jamie has lost count of his convictions

:18:21.:18:32.

after spending most of his teenage years in and out of police custody.

:18:33.:18:36.

I think I've got about 42 previous convictions.

:18:37.:18:38.

For stuff like robberies, burglaries, knife crime,

:18:39.:18:46.

Five years ago, Jamie made headlines when he was arrested along

:18:47.:18:56.

with his mum for their role in a gang who were trafficking guns

:18:57.:18:59.

My mum got done for importation of firearms back in 2011,

:19:00.:19:07.

but luckily for us, we only got 12 months probation.

:19:08.:19:09.

The rest of them got 25 to life in prison.

:19:10.:19:13.

Despite his number of convictions, Jamie was not imprisoned until 2011,

:19:14.:19:16.

He was sentenced to six weeks in HMV Doncaster for criminal damage.

:19:17.:19:24.

Doncaster prison, like many nowadays, houses both adults

:19:25.:19:27.

I had one fight with one guy, a 40-year-old Romanian guy.

:19:28.:19:33.

He caught me in his cell, so I set about him, and it took six

:19:34.:19:41.

guys and one screw to take me off him.

:19:42.:19:43.

And then he made a racist remark, so I went back to the pad,

:19:44.:19:47.

filled the kettle up obviously with sugar,

:19:48.:19:51.

went to chuck it at him in and the screw slammed

:19:52.:19:54.

The Chief Inspector of Prisons has described Doncaster as a poor

:19:55.:19:59.

institution with major concerns about safety.

:20:00.:20:14.

Screws just sit back and watch you fight each other.

:20:15.:20:16.

Mentally disturbing, because you are in a cell for 21

:20:17.:20:21.

hours a day doing nothing but staring at all four walls.

:20:22.:20:28.

And like all of Britain's 63 prisons for young offenders,

:20:29.:20:33.

HMP Isis in Oxfordshire, which holds over 600 young men,

:20:34.:20:36.

Stephen was moved there from Feltham in 2012.

:20:37.:20:54.

During my imprisonment at Isis, someone got stabbed in the shower,

:20:55.:20:57.

right about here, and the blood was coming out everywhere,

:20:58.:21:01.

like literally it was just down to someone taking their

:21:02.:21:04.

Just by taking a small worth of fortune, less

:21:05.:21:14.

than ?5 worth of goods, someone got stabbed and nearly died.

:21:15.:21:19.

It was very gruesome and horrifying for me to see all the blood

:21:20.:21:23.

splurging, the person was nearly down on the floor fainting.

:21:24.:21:28.

Now, there are many young offenders across the country with experiences

:21:29.:21:32.

Their stories are an example of how not to treat troubled young men.

:21:33.:21:38.

So why do we keep making the same mistakes?

:21:39.:21:43.

Imitaz has been campaigning for better treatment for young

:21:44.:21:48.

offenders since his 19-year-old nephew Zahid Mubarak was murdered

:21:49.:21:51.

by a racist cell-mate in Feltham 16 years ago.

:21:52.:21:55.

When Zahid was in Feltham Young Offenders, basically

:21:56.:21:58.

he would get a 90-day sentence, and during those 90 days,

:21:59.:22:01.

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

:22:02.:22:09.

When you have two people in that kind of situation,

:22:10.:22:13.

there are different thoughts that go through people's minds.

:22:14.:22:18.

Maybe the catalyst that made Zahid's murderer carry out the attack.

:22:19.:22:27.

In the last 20 years, there have been similar incidents.

:22:28.:22:30.

According to the charity Inquest, half a dozen young men,

:22:31.:22:34.

including Zahid, have been killed in young offenders' institutions.

:22:35.:22:39.

Young offenders more often than not are going to be released

:22:40.:22:42.

again back into society, and they have a whole

:22:43.:22:44.

Most of these guys are locked within four walls.

:22:45.:22:49.

That should actually be the safest place for them.

:22:50.:22:59.

I've got a brother that is in there doing life, maximum 16

:23:00.:23:02.

Having got out of Doncaster prison himself, Jamie

:23:03.:23:08.

His 21-year-old brother, Nathan, is there serving a life sentence

:23:09.:23:12.

for his part in a murder which left a pensioner dead in 2012.

:23:13.:23:19.

By the time he gets out of there, I will be 40-odd.

:23:20.:23:22.

He says he's coping good, but I know for a fact he's

:23:23.:23:26.

Because you have been in there and seen

:23:27.:23:29.

He doesn't even get support in there.

:23:30.:23:33.

He's got mental health issues, and I don't think he

:23:34.:23:35.

I think he should be in a psychiatric hospital where

:23:36.:23:40.

How can he get the support he needs in a place like that?

:23:41.:23:50.

And with concerns about overcrowding and a shortage of staff,

:23:51.:23:53.

Stephen believes the problems with young offenders institutes

:23:54.:23:56.

A lot of prison officers these days are young

:23:57.:24:02.

For example, you've got a prison officer who's 24

:24:03.:24:05.

But these young untrained qualified staff have no control at all.

:24:06.:24:19.

This video filmed on a banned mobile phone by young offenders at HMP

:24:20.:24:22.

Rochester shows just how chaotic the prison system can be.

:24:23.:24:28.

Two young men in a bloody fistfight while others look out for staff.

:24:29.:24:35.

You're just sending them into a cage where it's just an animal place.

:24:36.:24:38.

It's a jungle where you have to have animal instincts is to be able

:24:39.:24:41.

What are they going to take away from that?

:24:42.:24:48.

Half of young offenders will reoffend within

:24:49.:24:53.

Jermaine is a former gang member who is worried about the safety

:24:54.:24:58.

Exploitation takes place in different formats,

:24:59.:25:02.

sexually, financially, different things take place,

:25:03.:25:04.

but obviously it's a place where it's chaos.

:25:05.:25:06.

They don't go to jail, learn, and come out.

:25:07.:25:09.

They go to jail, learn how to be a better criminal,

:25:10.:25:11.

Since being released from prison, Stephen has reoffended,

:25:12.:25:18.

and was put back on probation in March this year.

:25:19.:25:22.

I recently got in trouble with fraud.

:25:23.:25:24.

I wasn't getting any support or help from the Government.

:25:25.:25:28.

I'm not saying it was the best option, but I was making ends meet.

:25:29.:25:32.

Jamie is hoping his future will be different, but with his string

:25:33.:25:48.

of convictions and an unstable family life, he tells me he's

:25:49.:25:51.

So you were just round your mum's house?

:25:52.:25:58.

His mum's ex-partner is injured after being attacked

:25:59.:26:02.

I just want the police to see what's the matter with him,

:26:03.:26:09.

because he just keeps shouting and being aggressive, and he isn't

:26:10.:26:11.

Things will change, it will get better.

:26:12.:26:18.

With her youngest son, Nathan, serving a life sentence

:26:19.:26:21.

in Doncaster prison, Debbie tells me she will do

:26:22.:26:24.

all she can to keep Jamie safe, but for Nathan,

:26:25.:26:26.

What worries you the most about Nathan being in a young

:26:27.:26:31.

That he will get killed, basically, for what he's done,

:26:32.:26:35.

So every day, you're waking up worried?

:26:36.:26:40.

Yes, that I'm going to get that phone call.

:26:41.:26:46.

There isn't a simple solution to solve the growing problems

:26:47.:26:49.

A report due to be published next month by the Justice Committee

:26:50.:26:54.

will say the way in which most offenders like Jamie and Stephen

:26:55.:26:57.

are treated will not help them change.

:26:58.:27:02.

Prison isn't helping nobody, it's just making them worse.

:27:03.:27:04.

They see theirselves as a failure, they failed through the system.

:27:05.:27:07.

So they'll just go in and come back out and go in and come back out.

:27:08.:27:19.

We asked the Ministry of Justice for an interview,

:27:20.:27:21.

Instead they told us, "The level of violence

:27:22.:27:27.

in our prisons is unacceptable especially violence

:27:28.:27:29.

against our hard-working and dedicated prison staff.

:27:30.:27:32.

We have resources in place to deal with violent or abusive behaviour.

:27:33.:27:34.

Any prisoners involved could face disciplinary action and be

:27:35.:27:36.

Serco, which runs HMP Doncaster told us, "The security and safety

:27:37.:27:44.

of staff and prisoners at HMP Doncaster is always our first

:27:45.:27:46.

concern and we have a zero-tolerance approach to violence."

:27:47.:27:52.

And later in the programme we'll talk to former young offenders

:27:53.:27:59.

Detective texts to say, "I work with vulnerable child victims. Maybe a

:28:00.:28:06.

few of their horrific stories will change your prospective on prisoners

:28:07.:28:11.

serving tiny sentences while playing Xbox as their victims live in misery

:28:12.:28:14.

and fear for the rest of their lives." Another viewers says,

:28:15.:28:18.

"Terrifying and humiliating children is not the best to stop them

:28:19.:28:23.

re-offending, isn't that what prison is supposed to be for?"

:28:24.:28:26.

And later in the programme we'll talk to former young offenders

:28:27.:28:28.

Keith Vaz's wife says she has forgiven him following a newspaper

:28:29.:28:35.

story about the MP paying for male escorts.

:28:36.:28:43.

More of us now use YouTube to listen to music than any other method

:28:44.:28:46.

but the body which represents the British music industry says

:28:47.:28:49.

YouTube isn't giving artists enough money for their songs.

:28:50.:28:53.

Here's Joanna in the BBC Newsroom with a summary of today's news.

Hillary Clinton has cancelled a campaign to California after her

There are warnings from South Korea that North Korea is ready to conduct

Government sources in Seoul say aerial photographs

Labour says the plans will entrench inequality.

But the Government argues that the use of quotas will ensure

:30:43.:30:45.

that pupils from poorer families are not squeezed out by middle-class

The Ministry of Defence says it's investigating claims in The Sun

:30:49.:31:00.

newspaper that an officer in the Coldstream Guards snorted

a powder-like substance from a ceremonial sword

standards and anyone found to fall short is disciplined robustly.

:31:18.:31:18.

A couple of comments from you about Keith Vaz and the fact that his wife

:31:19.:31:30.

said she is standing by him. She said she was really angry and wanted

to smash up the crockery but her love for him is greater than her

anger. This tweet from Hannah. Keith Vaz did not just cheat on his wife.

sister of Kadeena Cox, the first Briton since 1988 to win a medal

:34:21.:34:25.

in two sports in under 24 hours Kadeena, who has MS,

:34:26.:34:28.

won a gold and a bronze. Welcome to those of you. Bekki, how

:34:29.:34:41.

much pressure was Andy under? The para-triathlon has made its debut in

:34:42.:34:47.

these games. Yes, it has. He was under a lot of pressure. He just

:34:48.:34:50.

wanted to make everyone proud of him and come away with a medal, even if

:34:51.:34:55.

it wasn't gold. He smashed it and came away with what he wanted. When

:34:56.:35:01.

you spoke to him, what did you say to each other? Just well done,

:35:02.:35:06.

congratulations, I had every faith in you. He still can't believe it is

:35:07.:35:10.

real. I think he wakes up in a night to make sure the medal is

:35:11.:35:32.

still beneath his pillow because he thinks it was a dream! That is

:35:33.:35:36.

brilliant. You have two little ones, Jasmine and Logan, who is two and a

:35:37.:35:39.

half. What do they make of their dad making history? Jasmine is nine and

:35:40.:35:42.

she understands more than Logan. She is over the moon and preparing for

:35:43.:35:44.

his homecoming. When Logan sees his dad on the telly, he shouts that is

:35:45.:35:47.

daddy! He doesn't understand much about it but as he gets older,

:35:48.:35:49.

hopefully he will understand more why daddy wasn't around and things

:35:50.:35:54.

like that. Ramon, welcome to the programme. What do you make of your

:35:55.:36:00.

sister? She has done a really good job. She has made everybody proud

:36:01.:36:03.

and we couldn't be more proud of her. The first Briton since 1988 to

:36:04.:36:11.

win a medal in two sports at the Paralympics. Cycling gold and bronze

:36:12.:36:15.

on the athletics track as well. I think this is right. She almost was

:36:16.:36:20.

not able to compete in both, was she? That is correct. At one point

:36:21.:36:24.

they made her choose which one she wanted to do and she said it was

:36:25.:36:28.

really hard to choose. In the end they allowed her to do both. I don't

:36:29.:36:32.

know if you heard me mention the news about the ticket sales. For the

:36:33.:36:36.

Paralympics you probably knew that ticket sales were slow. They dropped

:36:37.:36:42.

the prices and they have sold 1.8 million tickets. What do you think

:36:43.:36:46.

of that? It is amazing how many people turned out at the event and

:36:47.:36:50.

gave support to the Paralympics. Very good. How does an S your

:36:51.:36:57.

sister's training? It is very difficult for her, depending on how

:36:58.:37:03.

she wakes up in the morning. That can determine how she will be for

:37:04.:37:07.

the day. She doesn't let anything hold her back and she keeps going.

:37:08.:37:14.

She is a fighter. God knew what she had in her and she has succeeded.

:37:15.:37:19.

Thank you for talking to us about your sister, Ramon McCoy, sister of

:37:20.:37:31.

Kadeena Cox, and to Bekki Lewis, wife of Andy Lewis. Congratulations

:37:32.:37:39.

to both those Paralympians. And what do you think about Alex Hales and

:37:40.:37:45.

Eoin Morgan pulling out of the tour to Bangladesh? Some say it is

:37:46.:37:48.

strength and others say it is pathetic. Tell us your opinion. And

:37:49.:37:55.

MP Keith Vaz's wife says she will forgive her husband for cheating on

:37:56.:38:00.

her with male escorts. She is giving the left MP and former minister a

:38:01.:38:04.

second chance but if he does it again, she will fling him out. In an

:38:05.:38:09.

interview she said it was a terrible shock and she is still processing

:38:10.:38:10.

it. The couple now plan to have marriage

:38:11.:38:31.

counselling. How difficult is it to save a marriage when one partner has

:38:32.:38:35.

cheated? Does it change things if the part you thought was straight

:38:36.:38:39.

has cheated with some of the same sex? Does it change things if they

:38:40.:38:41.

have had sex with prostitutes? She was married for 32 years before

:38:42.:38:47.

finding out her husband Teresa runs the Straight

:38:48.:38:51.

Partners Network. She was married to a man for ten

:38:52.:38:55.

years before he revealed he was gay. Thank you for coming on the

:38:56.:39:06.

programme. Let me start with Natasha. Where there are signs? Yes,

:39:07.:39:13.

there were, throughout the marriage, really, and even before we got

:39:14.:39:18.

married. I suppose you dismiss it and you have conversations about it.

:39:19.:39:25.

You don't actually fall in love with someone and expect them to end up

:39:26.:39:31.

being gay. You expect them to tell you that they love you and you

:39:32.:39:35.

believe them. What were the signs, if you don't mind me asking?

:39:36.:39:43.

Basically things like when we first had a computer there were internet

:39:44.:39:47.

chats with other men, arranging meetings. We went through

:39:48.:39:52.

counselling not long afterwards. Probably like Keith Vaz and his wife

:39:53.:39:59.

are doing. They convinced me that he was arranging to meet men because

:40:00.:40:02.

there were issues in the marriage and he didn't want to have an affair

:40:03.:40:08.

and that is why he did what he did. I was convinced that he wasn't gay

:40:09.:40:11.

and he was trying to work through the marriage with me. I believed

:40:12.:40:17.

that and we carried on for another eight years married. Let me bring

:40:18.:40:26.

into reason. In terms of straight partners anonymous, how common is it

:40:27.:40:29.

to hear from a married woman or man who thinks their partner might be

:40:30.:40:35.

gay? I think it is all too common. The sad thing is that people are

:40:36.:40:39.

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

:40:40.:40:47.

group does is to stop the person feeling alone because it is a very

:40:48.:40:52.

isolating thing to find out, as I am sure Natasha will verify. Initially

:40:53.:40:56.

people cannot even tell friends and family, other people, so to have a

:40:57.:41:05.

group to talk to, we all participate and support other people because we

:41:06.:41:08.

have all been through the same experience and we are all at

:41:09.:41:13.

different places on the path to recovery. It is a very positive

:41:14.:41:18.

group. What happened in your case? I had a very long marriage. I had

:41:19.:41:22.

known my husband since the age of 16. And we had a very long marriage

:41:23.:41:31.

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

:41:32.:41:35.

long and happy marriage and I was proud of that. So it was a

:41:36.:41:40.

devastating discovery. Did you have any sympathy for him? Sympathy from?

:41:41.:41:48.

Sympathy for him if he was a gay man leading a double life. Clearly there

:41:49.:41:54.

is betrayal and I understand that. Of course if you love somebody you

:41:55.:41:59.

have sympathy for their pain. But you are also extremely hurt yourself

:42:00.:42:04.

and reeling to cope with the devastation of your marriage.

:42:05.:42:10.

Therefore initially I think our plan was possibly to stay together but we

:42:11.:42:16.

very quickly realised that I would be making a lot of compromises for

:42:17.:42:22.

that. I just felt that I was worth more than that and I wanted a proper

:42:23.:42:25.

marriage where I wasn't having to share somebody. My mission then was

:42:26.:42:32.

to create something as positive as I could. Let me bring Natasha back in.

:42:33.:42:39.

How did you find out properly in the end what happened? We were going

:42:40.:42:45.

through a divorce. I never had any proof throughout the divorce. On a

:42:46.:42:58.

lot of occasions... It is called gaslamp in. I was distracted through

:42:59.:43:03.

the marriage. He said I'm not, I'm not. Because of the mental

:43:04.:43:08.

restrictions from friends and family and because I wasn't able to talk

:43:09.:43:15.

about it publicly, especially in the early days, I didn't have any

:43:16.:43:22.

tangible proof. Then he posted a video on his Facebook which was how

:43:23.:43:29.

I actually found out. To his dismay obviously. That must have been quite

:43:30.:43:33.

traumatic for him but at least it opened a dialogue and we were able

:43:34.:43:39.

to talk about it. I had felt so worthless, especially as a woman,

:43:40.:43:44.

and knowing that our whole marriage felt like a sham. What was the

:43:45.:43:50.

nature of the video that he uploaded to Facebook by accident? It was

:43:51.:43:55.

clear that he was in an intimate relationship with another man. Wow.

:43:56.:44:04.

Why hadn't he been able to tell you himself? I think because he wasn't

:44:05.:44:14.

able to come out himself. His friends and his family didn't know

:44:15.:44:22.

the reason for our divorce. I never went over and said this is why we

:44:23.:44:26.

are getting divorced. I think I felt like a black sheep and they didn't

:44:27.:44:30.

know why. We still haven't had discussions with his family since. I

:44:31.:44:36.

think it took a look for him to come to terms with. We have moved on from

:44:37.:44:43.

that and we are building bridges, which is great because we have got a

:44:44.:44:47.

young family and we need to move ahead for that. I want to be able to

:44:48.:44:51.

support him and feel his support for me, but at the time it was

:44:52.:44:55.

absolutely devastating. Sorry to interrupt. It is worth saying to our

:44:56.:45:02.

audience that your ex has given you permission to talk about this. You

:45:03.:45:05.

don't need his permission but he is comfortable with you talking about

:45:06.:45:10.

it openly. I don't think he appreciated at the time how rocked

:45:11.:45:15.

to be caught it can make a man or woman feel. -- rocked to the core.

:45:16.:45:23.

It is that sense of worthlessness that the person might have loved you

:45:24.:45:28.

as a friend but never really really loved you as a man and a woman

:45:29.:45:34.

should do. He understands now. We have had discussions about the way

:45:35.:45:39.

it made me feel. And how it has affected my life since and probably

:45:40.:45:43.

my life for a long time yet in terms of trust. In terms of feeling that I

:45:44.:45:54.

could be in a straight, honest, trustworthy relationship again.

:45:55.:45:57.

What do you think of Maria Fernandes decision to stand by her husband,

:45:58.:46:07.

Keith Vaz? It is an early decision. We often go through a phase early on

:46:08.:46:13.

where they want to cling to what they know and they're willing to

:46:14.:46:18.

compromise a lot initially to do that. And obviously Maria Fernandes

:46:19.:46:24.

has the extra pressure of the media spotlight which must be extremely

:46:25.:46:29.

unpleasant. She didn't have to do an interview, she was very revealing

:46:30.:46:32.

about all sorts of personal details. She didn't have to do an interview

:46:33.:46:38.

at all? I hope she did it with the greatest intention for herself

:46:39.:46:42.

rather than being pressured into it. We, as a group, we felt extremely

:46:43.:46:48.

sympathetic to her and we want to reach out to her, but she is not in

:46:49.:46:52.

a very trusting state at the moment, but my suspicion is that after a

:46:53.:46:57.

time perhaps she will, her feelings may change. It is something we find

:46:58.:47:01.

with a lot of members that they are on a journey here that they have

:47:02.:47:05.

been thrown into her and her feelings may change as to how she

:47:06.:47:08.

wants to deal with this. Perhaps once the media pressure has died

:47:09.:47:12.

down a little bit and she can be private about it. Stephen texts to

:47:13.:47:18.

say, "Poor men wrestling with their sexuality. Keith Vaz is probably a

:47:19.:47:25.

good guy and it is a shame he grew up feeling he had to hide himself".

:47:26.:47:33.

This viewer says, "Not every man who sleeps with another man is gay."

:47:34.:47:39.

This tweet from Lee, "Someone who is trying to be someone they're not,

:47:40.:47:43.

that must be really tough and for them to hide themselves will be

:47:44.:47:46.

hard." Thank you very much. Thank you Teresa, thank you for coming on

:47:47.:47:50.

the programme. Natasha, I appreciate you being so candid. Thank you for

:47:51.:47:54.

coming on the programme. Thank you, take care.

:47:55.:47:58.

She is one of the hottest new faces on Instagram but many of her fans

:47:59.:48:02.

are trying to work out if she is a real person or not.

:48:03.:48:05.

Debate is raging about whether Lil Miquela is a model

:48:06.:48:08.

who relies on technology to create her distinctive look,

:48:09.:48:09.

or if she is in fact 100% computer generated.

:48:10.:48:18.

BBC Trending tried to the answer the question - filter or fake?

:48:19.:49:05.

Looking at the images they are obviously models manipulated to look

:49:06.:49:14.

more feline. Slightly less realistic.

:49:15.:49:21.

I think it is more about the posing that would be more confusing. You

:49:22.:49:28.

are used to someone putting their shoulders forward and larger heads

:49:29.:49:32.

in the fore ground to try and achieve something that looks more

:49:33.:49:34.

real world. I feel like most of us know when we

:49:35.:50:03.

open a magazine a lot of the images have been tweaked, but social media,

:50:04.:50:07.

especially Instagram, it is touted as being people's real lives. This

:50:08.:50:11.

is what I look like on a day-to-day basis. It is completely not like

:50:12.:50:18.

that. I thought it looked really fake. I

:50:19.:50:23.

thought it looked a lot like a British model would. There are lots

:50:24.:50:32.

of elements of her face there. I remember being at school in the

:50:33.:50:37.

late 90s and there was a PlayStation advert with a girl who had a really

:50:38.:50:42.

big forehead and a little chin, it was like has she been changed or was

:50:43.:50:46.

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

:50:47.:50:50.

you're drawn in and you want to decide, is she real or not?

:50:51.:51:00.

It is a very clever way to get an audience.

:51:01.:51:03.

Coming up, are artists like Adele being paid enough

:51:04.:51:05.

The body representing the British music industry says they aren't.

:51:06.:51:10.

A new peace plan for Syria is supposed to come into effect

:51:11.:51:19.

It is unclear whether rebel groups in the country will observe the

:51:20.:51:26.

truce. Our correspondent James Longman

:51:27.:51:28.

is in Beirut, in neighbouring Why might the ceasefire not happen,

:51:29.:51:40.

James? None of the main rebel groups that are backed by the US have said

:51:41.:51:44.

they're going to take part. There is a lot of scepticism on the rebel

:51:45.:51:48.

side about just how this negotiated truce can actually happen? They

:51:49.:51:51.

don't feel they were consulted about it. They feel that there are huge

:51:52.:51:56.

parts of Syria which are under siege and if a cessation of hostilities

:51:57.:52:00.

takes place, what that means the Government could perform land grabs

:52:01.:52:04.

and it means that territory is lost by the rebels. They're really

:52:05.:52:09.

worried about the airstrikes that are supposed to be taking place

:52:10.:52:14.

after a week on the Al-Qaeda affiliates and on so-called Islamic

:52:15.:52:17.

State because rebels particularly in the north of Syria work alongside

:52:18.:52:21.

Islamist groups and if there are airstrikes then a lot of the men who

:52:22.:52:26.

fight for western-backed rebels could be caught up in those. Rebels

:52:27.:52:32.

are very, very, very sceptical about the dealing, but they are probably

:52:33.:52:35.

going to say yes because they don't have much other choice. There is a

:52:36.:52:38.

huge humanitarian crisis going on in Syria at the moment and people are

:52:39.:52:42.

in desperate need of aid. You mentioned more airstrikes. Yes,

:52:43.:52:45.

there were more at the weekend, perhaps to be expected in the run-up

:52:46.:52:51.

to hopefully the ceasefire? Well, yes, you're right because that's the

:52:52.:52:55.

pattern that we always see, a truce is agreed. A couple of days before

:52:56.:53:02.

the truce actually comes into, actually takes place, the Government

:53:03.:53:06.

then steps up its attacks on opposition-held areas and in this

:53:07.:53:09.

case it was in I had lib and Aleppo. Over 100 people were killed this

:53:10.:53:14.

weekend and rebels would say that's because the Government wants to

:53:15.:53:17.

force the opposition to say we don't want the truce and then they get

:53:18.:53:21.

blamed for the breakdown, if there is a cessation for 48 hours and for

:53:22.:53:27.

another week, if that holds, the US and Russia say they are going to

:53:28.:53:31.

start airstrikes against Isis and the Al-Qaeda affiliates across the

:53:32.:53:35.

border in Syria, and that will be, there will be a joint commander a

:53:36.:53:41.

joint Russia and US command in Aman in Jordan where they will be able to

:53:42.:53:46.

facilitate this military co-operation, the first of its kind

:53:47.:53:51.

for a long time between the US and Russia, but we are waiting to hear

:53:52.:53:55.

if the ceasefire will actually begin at sunset tonight. Thank you very

:53:56.:54:00.

much, James. James Longman. Thank you for your comments about

:54:01.:54:04.

the state of Young Offenders Institutions. Our film giving you a

:54:05.:54:08.

real insight about what life can be like for young offenders in the

:54:09.:54:12.

institutions. The Ministry of Justice are saying that levels of

:54:13.:54:19.

violence inside is unacceptable. Andy says, "I'm an ex-offender that

:54:20.:54:23.

managed to turn my life around after many prison sentences long and

:54:24.:54:26.

short. It can be achieved with hard work, but it come down to the person

:54:27.:54:30.

actually wanting to change. When I go to prison I would always say I

:54:31.:54:33.

want to change and better myself, but really had no intention of doing

:54:34.:54:38.

so. The violence won't stop though as some staff laugh about it and

:54:39.:54:42.

encourage people to hurt others due to the crime they've committed."

:54:43.:54:47.

This texter says, they don't leave their name. "Prison is easy. I did

:54:48.:54:52.

20 years as a prison officer. They can say in bed all day, watch TV,

:54:53.:54:58.

food chosen from a menu." Toby says, "I was a young offender in the 80s

:54:59.:55:04.

and it was just as violent then." On Facebook Jackie says, "I work in a

:55:05.:55:10.

secure children's home it is a welfare rather than a criminal unit.

:55:11.:55:15.

The ratio of staff is superior to what you have shown today. It is

:55:16.:55:19.

non-smoking as well. On occasion we have young people who have been in

:55:20.:55:22.

the Criminal Justice System when they come out of their room they're

:55:23.:55:25.

ready to fight. They have little trust in adults keeping them safe.

:55:26.:55:29.

Lifting them out of the criminal system, caring for them and letting

:55:30.:55:33.

them see what else life has to offer can help them turn their lives

:55:34.:55:37.

around." Thank you for those really thoughtful comments from you who

:55:38.:55:40.

have got experience. Those are the kind of comments that really help

:55:41.:55:43.

contribute to our conversations. We'll talk to politicians and an

:55:44.:55:47.

ex-offender in the next half an hour of the programme. So if you have got

:55:48.:55:51.

personal experience, do get in touch.

:55:52.:55:55.

It is time for the latest weather. It is going to be really hot

:55:56.:56:06.

tomorrow, Phil, what about today? It isn't for everybody and some of you

:56:07.:56:09.

will be relieved about that. Across northern and western parts, windy

:56:10.:56:13.

certainly in the short term and really wet at times as it is today,

:56:14.:56:17.

but somewhere across the eastern side of England, probably in the

:56:18.:56:20.

South East, it will see a temperature profile like that. If

:56:21.:56:24.

heat is not your thing, you have got to wait for that weather front to

:56:25.:56:28.

get across, but it will take a time. Much of the week before we see that

:56:29.:56:31.

transition. The thing about being well away interest that front, we're

:56:32.:56:36.

picking up the heat. It is coming from the near Continent where they

:56:37.:56:39.

have had a heatwave over Western Europe for sometime and if we get

:56:40.:56:43.

enough sunshine, then we will see that 31 Celsius. This was the scene

:56:44.:56:47.

this morning on the eastern shores of Cumbria. It wasn't like that

:56:48.:56:55.

everywhere by any means at all. This is at Pontypridd. Picking up on the

:56:56.:57:01.

extra cloud that's there across the south-west of England, there is no

:57:02.:57:05.

getting away from the fact that the bulk of the rain will be found

:57:06.:57:08.

across Northern Ireland and up across the western side of Scotland

:57:09.:57:12.

where we could be looking at 20 to 30 millimetres of rain, possibly 40

:57:13.:57:17.

over the higher ground, somewhere like Argyll. Eastern parts of

:57:18.:57:20.

Scotland will get sunshine and it will boost your temperatures into

:57:21.:57:23.

the low 20s perhaps. Not the case for Northern Ireland. Sunshine in

:57:24.:57:27.

short supply here and cloudy across parts of Wales and the south-west.

:57:28.:57:31.

Not without the chance of a wee bit of brightness. But you have got to

:57:32.:57:36.

be that wee bit further east to thin the cloud out and get the

:57:37.:57:43.

temperatures up to 24 or 25. The rain keeps on coming. The odd

:57:44.:57:47.

moderate to heavy burst coming up the line of that front. Further

:57:48.:57:51.

east, here is one of the stories, not just for tonight, but indeed on

:57:52.:57:55.

into the next night. Somewhere 18 Celsius, 19 Celsius, possibly 20

:57:56.:57:58.

Celsius and then we're off and running into Tuesday. Gun, we have

:57:59.:58:03.

got this cloud. It is producing thundery bursts across the

:58:04.:58:05.

south-west across Wales. Still there for Northern Ireland. Western parts

:58:06.:58:08.

of Scotland. But if you haven't had a mention thus far then you are in

:58:09.:58:12.

the running for a really warm day, if not a hot one. It depends on the

:58:13.:58:16.

level of cloud we get as to whether we get 30 or 31 Celsius. Look at

:58:17.:58:21.

this, I doff my cap to Northern Ireland where you won't get a warm

:58:22.:58:27.

day, 15 and it falls back to 13 Celsius overnight, but at least you

:58:28.:58:30.

have got a better chance of leaping than Tuesday night where we have got

:58:31.:58:34.

19 or 20 Celsius. We keep that sort of regime up for the next three or

:58:35.:58:39.

four days and then it does change towards the end of the week where we

:58:40.:58:43.

will bring the weather front further east and we clear away the heat by

:58:44.:58:47.

day, but also by night. So if you don't like heat, not everybody does,

:58:48.:58:51.

then hang on in there, things will change.

:58:52.:58:59.

How ill is Hillary Clinton? She has been diagnosed with pneumonia after

:59:00.:59:08.

appearing to faint yesterday at a 9/11 memorial event. Her opponents

:59:09.:59:13.

queried her physical fitness in the past, what will voters think? How

:59:14.:59:17.

are you feeling? Great. What happened? Can you give us a

:59:18.:59:22.

statement? It is a beautiful day in New York. On the programme, living

:59:23.:59:27.

with the daily threats of beatings and violence. We hear from people

:59:28.:59:31.

who have experienced life behind bars in Britain's young offenders

:59:32.:59:38.

institutions. Any time of the day from silly little things from

:59:39.:59:45.

tobacco, being stolen, towels being misplaced that want to cause inmates

:59:46.:59:50.

to have fights. So many of you are getting in touch with experience on

:59:51.:59:53.

that. Do share your own experiences if you have been inside, either as

:59:54.:59:56.

an inmate or as a prison officer. Get in touch.

:59:57.:00:01.

Have a look at this. Which of the cubes on the right can be made from

:00:02.:00:06.

the cube net on the left? I'll give you a few seconds to have a look at

:00:07.:00:11.

that and work it out. If you know the answer, or think you do, get in

:00:12.:00:15.

touch? Because that's one of the questions pupils taking it the

a campaign visit to California after her doctor revealed that she's

whether Mrs Clinton has the stamina Russia's deputy foreign minister

:00:54.:00:56.

says talks between the Syrian government and opposition groups

:00:57.:01:02.

could take place early next month. But Syrian rebel groups have

:01:03.:01:05.

expressed strong reservations about the ceasefire,

:01:06.:01:08.

brokered by the US and Russia, which is due to come

:01:09.:01:11.

into effect this evening. They have yet to say whether they

:01:12.:01:20.

will agree to it or not. One of the strongest rebel forces has

:01:21.:01:22.

reportedly rejected the agreement already. Therrien and Russian

That's a summary of the latest BBC News.

:03:14.:03:15.

Many of you are getting in touch following our conversation about

:03:16.:03:24.

Keith Vaz's wife forgiving him following the MP paying male escort

:03:25.:03:31.

for sex. Craig says he was married for 15 years to an amazing woman. I

:03:32.:03:37.

am gay and I hid it for years. It is very hard. For years you are made to

:03:38.:03:40.

feel that being gay is disgusting and horrible and so you hide it. The

:03:41.:03:45.

longer you hide it and try to live a straight life, the harder it becomes

:03:46.:03:50.

to tell people. I felt depressed and suicidal and it got worse all the

:03:51.:03:54.

time. I felt worse and worse until eventually I broke and my wife and I

:03:55.:04:02.

separated. I hate what I did and the pain that I have caused and it was

:04:03.:04:06.

wrong. I hope that with it getting easier for young people to be open

:04:07.:04:08.

about their sexuality, this will happen less and less. On Whatsapp

:04:09.:04:12.

this person says they cannot understand how Keith Vaz's wife can

:04:13.:04:17.

forgive him now with all the trouble she and her kids will live with

:04:18.:04:21.

because of this life. It is horrible to do this to your wife and your

:04:22.:04:27.

children. And this person says that a home afloat media will keep people

:04:28.:04:31.

in the closet. And this week, his wife may forgive him but how will

:04:32.:04:40.

she ever trust this man again? -- and this tweet. Thank you for

:04:41.:04:43.

getting in touch. You will be charged at the standard network rate

:04:44.:04:44.

if you text. Now the sport. Yet more success for Great Britain

see how emotional you were. Tell us what it was like at the end. A

:05:38.:05:41.

mixture of absolute emotion and chucking up at the same time. It was

headlines at 10:30am. Hillary Clinton's doctor says

:07:46.:07:48.

the Democratic presidential candidate is suffering

:07:49.:07:50.

from pneumonia, after she appeared to faint as she left an event

in New York yesterday. She stumbles a couple of times, as

:07:53.:08:11.

you can see, and appears to collapse towards the floor. Have another

Pneumonia can take between one and three weeks to recover from.

She first showed signs of being under the weather

And I want to thank Congresswoman Marcia Search for hosting us. SHE

coughs. Every time I think about Donald

:08:37.:08:48.

Trump! Mrs Clinton has now cancelled

a planned trip to California, but is due to take part in the first

presidential televised She was diagnosed on Friday

:09:11.:09:13.

and to give an insight into the kind of heavy schedule a presidential

:09:14.:09:22.

candidate faces, her working day on Friday included appearing at two

:09:23.:09:25.

fundraisers, running a two-hour national security meeting,

:09:26.:09:27.

holding a press conference Her Republican opponents have

queried her physical fitness, with the presidential candidate

Donald Trump telling supporters last month she lacks the mental

:09:33.:09:35.

and physical stamina to serve as President and fight

:09:36.:09:38.

Islamic State militants. Here's how her health

:09:39.:09:40.

is being reported in the States. We begin with breaking news on

:09:41.:09:51.

Hillary Clinton's health. We are now learning she has been diagnosed with

:09:52.:09:56.

pneumonia. The issue came alive at a 9/11 memorial event at Ground Zero

:09:57.:10:01.

in New York. An update on Hillary Clinton, who left the 9/11 memorial

:10:02.:10:06.

service in New York early after becoming overheated, according to

:10:07.:10:10.

her campaign. She went to her daughter's apartment and has just

:10:11.:10:14.

left in front of the cameras. Breaking news. An update on

:10:15.:10:18.

presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's health. What we have just

:10:19.:10:23.

learned from an aide is that Hillary Clinton's Doctor attended to her at

:10:24.:10:24.

her home today. The doctor has put her

:10:25.:10:30.

on antibiotics which suggests it's It's a diagnosis that you can

:10:31.:10:32.

absolutely understand why someone To me right now it is

:10:33.:10:36.

a good-news-bad-news situation The good news is the basket

:10:37.:10:39.

of deplorable things The bad news is this is a pothole

:10:40.:10:43.

that has opened up and the problem for her is it feeds two

:10:44.:10:49.

storylines of Donald Trump. One about her health,

:10:50.:10:52.

does she have the stamina? But secondly it feeds the story

:10:53.:10:54.

on is she transparent? Let's speak to Scott Lucas,

:10:55.:10:57.

Professor of American Politics How big a deal is this? Oh, it is a

:10:58.:11:11.

big deal, at least for the next two or three new cycles. Americans are

:11:12.:11:19.

all concerned that their presence would be fit and confident. Donald

:11:20.:11:22.

Trump's campaign has been playing this up, first for Hillary Clinton

:11:23.:11:30.

and second to cover up that Donald Trump will not release his own

:11:31.:11:34.

medical records. Until she looks good and sounds good and ready for

:11:35.:11:37.

the debate, expect this to be the headlines about the presidential

:11:38.:11:42.

campaign. Interestingly, Donald Trump has not said anything or

:11:43.:11:45.

tweeted anything about this official news, which is not like Donald

:11:46.:11:50.

Trump, let's be honest. The speculation yesterday was that staff

:11:51.:11:53.

were holding his hands back from the keyboard to keep him from doing

:11:54.:11:57.

this. It would have looked undignified to jump in and celebrate

:11:58.:12:02.

in any way this setback for Clinton. It has never stopped him before.

:12:03.:12:07.

Right, but I think you take it up a level when you are basically

:12:08.:12:11.

revelling in the fact that your candidate is going to lose the

:12:12.:12:15.

campaign through a health issue. Do you think it is possible that she

:12:16.:12:19.

could lose this because he has pneumonia over the next two to three

:12:20.:12:24.

weeks? We don't know. We don't know how serious this is. I have a Nice

:12:25.:12:28.

with walking pneumonia with exactly that kind of coughing fit that you

:12:29.:12:33.

heard in your clip and it can be very debilitating. Hillary Clinton

:12:34.:12:37.

may not do the campaign trail for the next few days, which is one

:12:38.:12:40.

thing, but if she cannot pull off a good performance at the debate in

:12:41.:12:45.

two weeks, that is the benchmark Americans mostly set for whether or

:12:46.:12:48.

not the candidate is on the ascendancy for the White House.

:12:49.:12:57.

Thank you. Levels of violence and young offender institutions are

:12:58.:13:00.

unacceptably high. It's not just inmates and staff

:13:01.:13:06.

who say that the Government They're promising a thorough review

:13:07.:13:09.

of the system which currently sees inmates and staff facing the daily

:13:10.:13:12.

threat of beatings and stabbings. But what's life like for young

:13:13.:13:15.

people who get locked up? Our reporter Noel Philips has been

:13:16.:13:17.

speaking to young offenders as they We played his full report

:13:18.:13:20.

earlier in the programme. and description which you might not

:13:21.:13:25.

want young children to watch. In Feltham, fights happen from day

:13:26.:13:32.

to day, any time of day, over silly things like tobacco

:13:33.:13:36.

being stolen, towels being misplaced, simple little petty

:13:37.:13:39.

things that would cause inmates Stephen is 22 and knows what it's

Feltham Young Offenders' Institition A lot of prison officers these days

:13:53.:13:59.

are young members of the public. For example, you've got

:14:00.:14:09.

a prison officer who's 24 But these young untrained qualified

:14:10.:14:12.

staff have no control at all. This video filmed on a banned mobile

:14:13.:14:19.

phone by young offenders at HMP Rochester shows just how chaotic

:14:20.:14:24.

the prison system can be. Two young men in a bloody

:14:25.:14:31.

fistfight while others look He was sent to HMP Doncaster in 2011

:14:32.:14:34.

when he was just 18. I had one fight with one guy,

:14:35.:14:47.

a 40-year-old Romanian guy. I took his pad, he caught me

:14:48.:14:57.

in his cell so I set about him and it took six guys and one

:14:58.:15:00.

screw to take me off him. And then he made a racist remark,

:15:01.:15:04.

so I went back to the pad, filled the kettle up,

:15:05.:15:07.

obviously with sugar, and went to chuck it at him,

:15:08.:15:13.

and the screw slammed the door Jamie's younger brother Nathan

:15:14.:15:16.

is serving a life sentence His mum, Debbie,

:15:17.:15:19.

tells me she's worried. What worries you most about Nathan

:15:20.:15:30.

being in a young offenders institute?

:15:31.:15:32.

That he'll get killed, basically, for what he's done,

:15:33.:15:34.

So every day, you're waking up worried?

:15:35.:15:37.

Yes, that I'm going to get that phone call.

:15:38.:15:39.

There isn't a simple solution to solving the growing

:15:40.:15:41.

A report due to be published next month by the Justice Committee

:15:42.:15:48.

will say the way in which most offenders like Jamie and Stephen

:15:49.:15:50.

are treated will not help them change.

:15:51.:15:56.

Prison isn't helping nobody, it's just making them worse.

:15:57.:16:01.

They see theirselves as a failure, they failed through the system.

:16:02.:16:04.

So they'll just go in and come back out and go in and come back out.

:16:05.:16:21.

So many comments. "It is not just youth prison, it is the prison

:16:22.:16:30.

system you should focus on and the way officers treat offenders. My arm

:16:31.:16:33.

was broken by an officer after I tried to take my own life. His

:16:34.:16:37.

actions are being protected by the Ministry of Justice." That's from

:16:38.:16:44.

Nigel. "I served a long sentence for contract fraud. I became a Samaritan

:16:45.:16:50.

and a prisoner insider rep whilst in custody. I was 37 when I was sent to

:16:51.:16:55.

prison. I'm ex-police myself and ex-central Government. I too had a

:16:56.:17:00.

narrow attitude towards prisoners, but seeing for myself I was able to

:17:01.:17:07.

witness the abuse behind the walls. Many prisoners are repeat offenders.

:17:08.:17:11.

When sentenced their punishment is a loss of liberty, plus that, it is

:17:12.:17:14.

the State's duty to keep them safe and offer them hope. ." That is from

:17:15.:17:20.

Peter, "My partner was murdered in 1989. The murderer did ten years.

:17:21.:17:24.

The man is now supported by the Government. He has a home. He has a

:17:25.:17:29.

job. And he has all his family around him. I have nothing. My life

:17:30.:17:34.

was destroyed. Focus on the victims of these crimes." I have got more

:17:35.:17:39.

comments and I will read them as we talk about this.

:17:40.:17:41.

If you want to share that full film you can find it on our programme

:17:42.:17:45.

We asked the Ministry of Justice for an interview, but

:17:46.:17:48.

Instead they told us, "The level of violence

:17:49.:17:51.

in our prisons is unacceptable especially violence

:17:52.:17:53.

against our hard-working and dedicated prison staff.

:17:54.:17:55.

We have resources in place to deal with violent or abusive behaviour.

:17:56.:17:59.

Any prisoners involved could face disciplinary action and be

:18:00.:18:00.

Serco, which runs HMP Doncaster told us, "The security and safety

:18:01.:18:08.

of staff and prisoners at HMP Doncaster is always our first

:18:09.:18:11.

concern and we have a zero tolerance approach to violence."

:18:12.:18:15.

We can talk now to Marie-Claire O'Brien, who is a prison mentor

:18:16.:18:18.

and a former offender who now works with inmates at young

:18:19.:18:21.

Paul Miller who is a former young offenders prison officer.

:18:22.:18:35.

He looked after 16 to 21-year-olds for 25 years.

:18:36.:18:38.

Conservative MP Andrew Selous, who until July was the government's

:18:39.:18:40.

And Victoria Prentis, a Conservative MP and member

:18:41.:18:43.

They're releasing a report on young offenders institutes next month.

:18:44.:18:46.

Welcome all of you. Clearly, we acknowledge it would be better if

:18:47.:18:51.

these young people weren't inside in the first place. They are. Let's

:18:52.:18:54.

talk about the conditions that they find themselves in. Tell us about

:18:55.:18:59.

your own experience from, having been inside, and also working with

:19:00.:19:06.

inmates now. Prison is there for a reason, you knowbling, nobody -- you

:19:07.:19:12.

know, nobody agrees with crime. However, you know, we have to

:19:13.:19:16.

acknowledge that prison is full of hurt people and I think we need to

:19:17.:19:21.

decide as a nation whether we want to be punitive or whether we want to

:19:22.:19:28.

be rewhat billtive. Why not both? I think prison is the punitive element

:19:29.:19:33.

taking people and children away from their families, that's the punitive

:19:34.:19:37.

elementment I think what we need to train the prison officers and the

:19:38.:19:42.

senior management team around is not all prison officers, sorry because

:19:43.:19:46.

some are naturally born with that nature and want to help prisoners

:19:47.:19:49.

turn away from crime. I had that experience myself and I was grateful

:19:50.:19:53.

for those officers. However, there is a lot of stuff going on behind

:19:54.:19:57.

those walls and I think, we're letting children down. Suicide rates

:19:58.:20:01.

have gone through the roof. Violence has gone through the roof. We really

:20:02.:20:05.

need to look at that and look at what works. Re-offending rates is 7%

:20:06.:20:13.

and the workplaced interventions. They get young people hooked on

:20:14.:20:16.

something interesting and something that they have never tried before

:20:17.:20:19.

and it raises aspirations. It let's them realise that there is a

:20:20.:20:24.

different way of life other than hurting people and they can be

:20:25.:20:29.

happier people and happy, contributing members of society. Why

:20:30.:20:33.

is it so violent inside young offenders institutions? I think more

:20:34.:20:37.

people have been sent to prison for violent offences. The culture has

:20:38.:20:49.

changed. Ears ago Years ago it would have been unheard of that a female

:20:50.:20:54.

prison officer would be assaulted. At the start of a sentence if you

:20:55.:20:59.

can say to a young man, is it brick laying you want to do, is it

:21:00.:21:03.

plastering, an electrician? If you could really focus them on getting a

:21:04.:21:07.

skill. We need 300,000 more construction workers. That gives us

:21:08.:21:11.

a chance to change the culture and presume that young man know that is

:21:12.:21:16.

we're making a serious offer and importantly, he is less likely to

:21:17.:21:20.

commit crime. The purpose of the Ministry of Justice is to prevent

:21:21.:21:27.

victims. Is that not happening in young offenders institutions across

:21:28.:21:31.

England? Well there, is what the Charlie Taylor review is about. It

:21:32.:21:34.

is about the Government looking at the system and saying it is not good

:21:35.:21:42.

enough and instead of having a prison with education to get people

:21:43.:21:47.

good, paid workful we need to keep the family link strong. Families can

:21:48.:21:52.

be unhelpful, but the family link can be important. Don't put an

:21:53.:21:59.

offender, lock him up miles from his family? We know people who keep

:22:00.:22:06.

family ties reduce their risk of re-offending by 39%. Is it as much

:22:07.:22:11.

as that? It is not specific to young offenders, but it is a real

:22:12.:22:15.

statistic and that is a really good way of helping people, not to

:22:16.:22:18.

reoffend in the future. One of the things that happens when you're in

:22:19.:22:21.

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

:22:22.:22:25.

element from those who care about you. And about half of prisoners

:22:26.:22:29.

lose touch with their family. So this is something we really have to

:22:30.:22:34.

focus on going forward. It is just one of the ways education and

:22:35.:22:38.

employment are, of course, other things that you can do to help

:22:39.:22:41.

people not reoffend, but family tie are very important. Paul, has it

:22:42.:22:45.

always been as bad as this or in your experience over 25 years, as a

:22:46.:22:48.

prison officer working with young people inside, has it got worse and

:22:49.:22:52.

if so, why? It is gradually getting worse over the years. Why? It is

:22:53.:22:55.

totally different from when I started. It is down to the staffing.

:22:56.:23:05.

Prisoners were always in the eyesight of all officers, we had

:23:06.:23:11.

time to integrate and dynamic security, we would supervise

:23:12.:23:13.

showers, we would supervise the landings and patrol the landings.

:23:14.:23:19.

Now those days are gone. It is a closed service now where people

:23:20.:23:22.

forget about it. It is emergency service. We used to think of our

:23:23.:23:26.

service as the emergency service that everybody forgot about. Unless

:23:27.:23:31.

you have been in prison, you don't know what it is like and working in

:23:32.:23:35.

the prison. Officers now are fearful walking through the gate themselves

:23:36.:23:40.

and being on the landings. They are leaving in droves. You've lost

:23:41.:23:43.

thousands of years of experienced officers over the past three or four

:23:44.:23:47.

years and you'll never get that back. Do you accept that as

:23:48.:23:50.

politicians from the ruling Conservative Party, there are not

:23:51.:23:54.

enough prison officers to keep people safe? Absolutely and that's

:23:55.:23:58.

why we are committed to get more prison officers. I have been trying

:23:59.:24:01.

to persuade Paul to go back into the Prison Service because he has that

:24:02.:24:05.

25 years service. We need experienced officers as well as new

:24:06.:24:09.

officers. We are trying to recruit them and many parts of public sector

:24:10.:24:12.

are struggling to get more people and we are not alone. It is

:24:13.:24:17.

essential. People like Paul make an I had credible difference to lives.

:24:18.:24:21.

He meets people in the street in Newcastle at the moment who he has

:24:22.:24:25.

put on the straight and narrow, they are paying a mortgage because of

:24:26.:24:28.

what he did. How did you do it? Well, you go back to the basics. We

:24:29.:24:34.

gave them self esteam, a bit of pride in themselves. Most came from

:24:35.:24:37.

backgrounds where they had no figure head in their family. They got

:24:38.:24:42.

themselves in trouble. The first set of discipline that everyone

:24:43.:24:46.

encounter was through us when they came into the jail. We would get

:24:47.:24:49.

them to make their beds in the morning, shave, how to wash, how to

:24:50.:24:52.

eat properly, basics of life that me you and you take for granted every

:24:53.:24:57.

day. You were like a father figure, weren't you? Yeah, I suppose I was.

:24:58.:25:03.

Can we address this issue, a number of people getting in touch saying,

:25:04.:25:07.

"Who cares? Who cares? They did bad things. So what if prison is

:25:08.:25:13.

violent. So what." Why are you laughing? 90% of prisoners are

:25:14.:25:19.

released. It is in all of our interests to sort them out and to

:25:20.:25:23.

rehabilitate them. They are our neighbours pt they are members of

:25:24.:25:26.

our communities. It is for the victims, the future victims that we

:25:27.:25:30.

hope never become victims, that we are all, all four of us very

:25:31.:25:34.

interested in prison reform. What I was going to say earlier about the

:25:35.:25:39.

enormous pressures on particularly the young offender part of the

:25:40.:25:43.

Prison Service at the moment include some new pressures like psycho

:25:44.:25:48.

active substances which we really should mention particularly when we

:25:49.:25:51.

talk about assaults in prison. These new drugs are having a very, very

:25:52.:25:57.

bad effect on control within prisons and it has been difficult to catch

:25:58.:26:02.

up with the new drugs that are being created.

:26:03.:26:08.

How is that happening in the first place? Sorry to ask a naive

:26:09.:26:23.

question. You will get rotten ones in the barrel. They used to throw

:26:24.:26:28.

them in packages over the walls. We used to have patrols on every day

:26:29.:26:32.

that would check before movement. They cut that. They know that. They

:26:33.:26:38.

pick up on that. They are flying them in on drones. Visitors fetch

:26:39.:26:45.

them in. Anthony says, "I was in and out of young offenders sfotions for

:26:46.:26:49.

years. People thought I was just a thief, but it was the only place I

:26:50.:26:52.

felt safe having being sexually abused at the hands of a family

:26:53.:26:56.

friend. I didn't want to be there in those staorksz but life outside was

a really frightening place to be. It ruined my life because of having a

criminal record and working in dead end jobs." This texter doesn't leave

their name, "I'm a therapist and I work with children and young people.

:27:09.:27:12.

A lot of my work is about providing an intervention that may stop people

:27:13.:27:15.

from offending. Unfortunately we turn a blind eye to the plight of

:27:16.:27:18.

many children and young people who are suffering on a daily basis. I

:27:19.:27:21.

see so many young people who are suffering and have no support and no

acknowledgement." Rob is a serving police officer. "We appear to be

:27:31.:27:35.

victims and their families, it is simple, don't commit the crime and

:27:36.:27:38.

you won't go to prison. They seem to have an excuse for everything, but

:27:39.:27:41.

it is never their fault." How do you respond? You know Rob, it is not

:27:42.:27:45.

about focussing or victimising perpetrators of crime. It is about

:27:46.:27:54.

acknowledging the fact that 99.9% of offenders will get out of prison and

we have to rehabilitate them so they don't pick up extra crimes that they

rehabilitate them and upskill them and support them. Paul said that the

:28:09.:28:11.

magic that happened with his relationships was almost acting as a

:28:12.:28:15.

father figure because these kids have never experienced such care.

:28:16.:28:19.

Such discipline, such rules, such boundaries and that's what we are

aides finding. We set-up Prison Industry. We set-up Prison Industry

:28:29.:28:31.

them to drop their addictions if they are sat in their cells for 22,

:28:32.:28:37.

23 hours a day. Andrew? Rehabilitation isn't a soft option.

:28:38.:28:40.

It is about keeping the public safe. If we can cut re-offending, less

:28:41.:28:44.

people mugged and less people burgled. And it costs ?13 billion a

:28:45.:28:51.

year. Thank you very much. Thank you for your insight. Thank you.

:28:52.:28:56.

England will be without their one-day captain when they tour

:28:57.:28:58.

Eoin Morgan has pulled out over security concerns

:28:59.:29:01.

along with opening batsman Alex Hales.

:29:02.:29:03.

The Director of England Cricket, Andrew Strauss, says

:29:04.:29:05.

Let's talk to Jonathan Agnew. So you will see have various comments from

:29:06.:29:20.

supporters and other high-profile figures saying that this decision

:29:21.:29:24.

particularly of the captain, Eoin Morgan, is looking in moral courage?

:29:25.:29:28.

Well, that's what people are saying. I think what we have to do is to go

:29:29.:29:33.

back about six weeks to when the ECB actually got the tour back onned

:29:34.:29:37.

road and a couple of months ago it looked like the tour was abandoned

:29:38.:29:43.

completely, there was a terrorist outrage in Dhaka, if you asked me a

:29:44.:29:46.

week after that, I would have said there was no way the tour would

:29:47.:29:49.

happen. They have put things in place. They have got more and more

:29:50.:29:54.

people on the side and the ECB gave the assurance that if any player

:29:55.:29:58.

pulled out, it would not be held against them. That's a mistake. It

:29:59.:30:02.

sounds a nice thing to say at the time and you are cajoling people and

:30:03.:30:07.

you are trying to get them on the plane basically, but what it has

:30:08.:30:10.

done, of course, it left the ECB in a hole. You know, I think many

:30:11.:30:14.

people feel that the captain, Eoin Morgan should be on the tour. He has

:30:15.:30:19.

got the words of Andrew Strauss ringing in his ears saying, "Nothing

:30:20.:30:26.

will be held against you Eoin, the Champions Trophy and mini World Cup

:30:27.:30:30.

is next summer." Are they really going to sack him? I don't think

:30:31.:30:33.

they can despite what people are saying, it would be wrong, surely.

:30:34.:30:36.

He has gone away and thought about it long and hard. He has been

:30:37.:30:40.

reassured that it wouldn't be held against him if he did pull out and

:30:41.:30:43.

now people are demanding that he should be sacked. Ben Stokes posted

:30:44.:30:49.

on Twitter, he will back not just my captain, but any fellow team-mates

:30:50.:30:53.

decision on matters like this. I wonder if the captain does not go,

:30:54.:30:59.

but the rest of the team do, I know Alex Hayles isn't going, does that

:31:00.:31:04.

undermine Eoin Morgan's authority on the field of play?

:31:05.:31:09.

I don't think it does. People may disagree with me. That's fine. What

:31:10.:31:13.

will happen actually with the tour is this one day squad will play in

:31:14.:31:17.

Bangladesh, and they will play three games and then they come backment

:31:18.:31:21.

they come back for a couple of months. They have Christmas. They

:31:22.:31:25.

have New Year. Then that one day squad pack up and they go off to

:31:26.:31:32.

India. It might be a new squad. Presumably Eoin Morgan will be

:31:33.:31:36.

captain of that team, they will meet at Heathrow Airport and off they'll

:31:37.:31:41.

go on a separate tour with this Champions Trophy now only eight

:31:42.:31:45.

games away or whatever it maybe. These things, I have to say, having

:31:46.:31:49.

done this job for a while, this happens a lot before tours, not

:31:50.:31:55.

necessarily people dropping out, but uncertainty, speculation, issues,

:31:56.:32:01.

political issues, unfortunately, the cricket team go to tricky places and

:32:02.:32:06.

it is the way the cricket world is formed, it is formed on the Empire.

:32:07.:32:10.

That's a chat for another day. The talk of tours going ahead or not is

:32:11.:32:14.

something that in the cricket world we are used. There will be massive

:32:15.:32:19.

security thrown at it. I would accept that terrorism itself has

:32:20.:32:23.

changed over the last few years and obviously so and security changed

:32:24.:32:27.

too. It is stronger now. We are used to going on tours which we have an

:32:28.:32:31.

armed guard sleeping outside our bedroom door. The streets will be

:32:32.:32:36.

cleared. A convoy will go through and the cricket will be played.

:32:37.:32:40.

Should it be played under those circumstances, is it easy for

:32:41.:32:43.

players to put that to one side? Eoin Morgan would say no and that's

:32:44.:32:45.

what he has based this on. He will want to go out there and

:32:46.:32:57.

play cricket to the best of his ability, without distractions and

:32:58.:32:59.

without worrying about what is happening around the place. Some

:33:00.:33:06.

players are better at dealing with that than others. The ECB must have

:33:07.:33:10.

had conversations with at least 25 people. The players, the managers,

:33:11.:33:17.

the coaching staff, even up to 30 people. Only two have said no. They

:33:18.:33:23.

have managed to get 90% of them on the plane, so that is pretty good.

:33:24.:33:28.

If you went out onto the streets, you'll probably find two people out

:33:29.:33:33.

of or 30 who don't have that same view. Where we were a few weeks ago,

:33:34.:33:41.

I think it is miraculous getting so many people on the plane. Thank you.

:33:42.:33:45.

Still to come: Have you worked it out yet?

:33:46.:33:47.

Which of the cubes on the right can be made from the cube

:33:48.:33:50.

That's one of the questions pupils taking the 11-plus

That is all the sport now but there will be more on the BBC News Channel

:38:28.:38:37.

throughout the morning. Thank you. Thank you for your insightful

:38:38.:38:40.

comments on young offenders institutions. Plenty of you with

:38:41.:38:44.

relevant experience and that gives us more of an idea of what is going

:38:45.:38:50.

on, which really helpful. In this email, my husband works in a young

:38:51.:38:54.

offenders institution and he has 30 years experience in the prison

:38:55.:38:57.

service. During this time he has worked with some of this country's

:38:58.:39:02.

most notorious offenders. But recently he has been the victim of

:39:03.:39:08.

and witnessed more violence than he has in his entire service. There is

:39:09.:39:11.

no rehabilitation because there are not the resources to provide it any

:39:12.:39:14.

more and staffing levels are so low that violence is rife. Inmates are

:39:15.:39:21.

left to fight among themselves until staff arrive from other parts of the

:39:22.:39:28.

jail to back up the one or two staff left in charge of 40 inmates. They

:39:29.:39:33.

don't have sufficient staff to conduct searches, leaving inmates

:39:34.:39:42.

with weapons and mobile phones and so on. The prison service will not

:39:43.:39:46.

pay for the technology to block mobile phones. And this one. The

:39:47.:39:51.

prison service is corrupt and barbaric. I have been told of the

:39:52.:39:55.

amount of drugs that get in every day through drones. A legal high

:39:56.:40:00.

known as spice is readily available and makes inmates ill. Heroin is

:40:01.:40:05.

also available. I have tried to communicate this to prison staff on

:40:06.:40:08.

many occasions to express my deep concern over my son's mental health.

:40:09.:40:13.

What they have told me at what is really happening to my son is very

:40:14.:40:16.

different. He has informed me of the violence. He says on one occasion

:40:17.:40:18.

prison staff turned a blind eye while three men

:40:19.:40:34.

entered a young man's cell and beat him senseless. The warden would not

:40:35.:40:37.

open the door when asked to buy my son and another inmate. Something

:40:38.:40:39.

has got to change. And Andrew says what about the prison staff

:40:40.:40:41.

assaulted every day verbally and physically? We don't have sprays,

:40:42.:40:43.

tasers and body armour, just white shirts. Zero tolerance? That is a

:40:44.:40:47.

joke. We are told it is part of the job. Three staff to a house block is

:40:48.:40:53.

no joke. Thank you for those, really useful. If you would like to watch

The body which represents the British music industry says

:41:01.:41:02.

YouTube still isn't giving artists enough money for their songs.

:41:03.:41:08.

More of us now use YouTube to listen to music than any other method

:41:09.:41:11.

including radio, CDs and streaming services.

:41:12.:41:15.

YouTube say they've paid out more than ?2.3 billion to the music

:41:16.:41:18.

But should they be paying more for hosting songs like this?

:41:19.:41:22.

# I must have called a thousand times.

:41:23.:41:30.

# To tell you, I'm sorry for everything that I've done.

:41:31.:41:37.

# Oh, oh, oh, oh, I'm feeling drunk and high.

:41:38.:41:41.

# I've got all I need when I've got you and I.

:41:42.:41:49.

# I look around me and see sweet love.

:41:50.:41:54.

# You're getting me, getting me through the night.

:41:55.:42:00.

# Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

:42:01.:42:16.

# My heart don't understand why I got you on my mind

:42:17.:42:23.

BBC Radio 1 Newsbeat's music reporter Steve

:42:24.:42:46.

What are UK Music saying? Basically that YouTube is not paying enough

:42:47.:42:59.

money back to artists Paul the views they get on their website. YouTube

:43:00.:43:03.

is so big and now owned by Google so it is way more popular than radio

:43:04.:43:08.

and CDs, and proportionately it is not giving enough money back for the

:43:09.:43:15.

music they show. What would you say about the state of UK music

:43:16.:43:20.

industry? It is in fine fettle, fine health. UK Music say British artists

:43:21.:43:26.

contribute ?4.1 million to the UK economy, the same as the year

:43:27.:43:31.

before, helped in 2015 by Adele's album Hello and her album 25. One in

:43:32.:43:39.

six albums around the world are by a British artist. We do have a slight

:43:40.:43:45.

fall in the sales of recorded music, so CDs and physical copies, and also

:43:46.:43:50.

live music. That industry has dropped slightly as well but it has

:43:51.:43:55.

been offset by the huge rise in streaming services like Spotify,

:43:56.:44:02.

which is increasingly where we go to get our music. What are you cheap

:44:03.:44:07.

saying? You tube disagree with UK Music, unsurprisingly. -- YouTube.

:44:08.:44:16.

They are very keen to make the point that they are an advertisement based

:44:17.:44:20.

service, not subscription based. It is free, we use it all the time. The

:44:21.:44:25.

deal is signed with an artist, which is kept very secret, and half of the

:44:26.:44:31.

advertising revenue before an artist's video goes back to the

:44:32.:44:36.

artist itself. We're not talking about Adele, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith,

:44:37.:44:40.

who are all making a lot of money because they are successful. UK

:44:41.:44:47.

Music wants to stress this is about emerging artists, artists who need

:44:48.:44:51.

to make money. In this day and age they can't do that traditionally by

:44:52.:44:56.

selling music in a shop. If you are an emerging artist, you're not going

:44:57.:45:00.

to have the same kind of adverts status, so you will get less money

:45:01.:45:04.

from YouTube. Of course. YouTube so they put out billions of pounds into

:45:05.:45:07.

the music industry but when that trickles down to the artists, they

:45:08.:45:12.

are getting next to nothing. An artist that is trying to make a

:45:13.:45:17.

career, make a go of it, obviously wants to try and get money from

:45:18.:45:22.

whatever resource it can and UK Music wants Google to give them a

:45:23.:45:25.

chance, a bit more money because they have got it. Thank you. Thank

:45:26.:45:30.

you. Did I say that enough? Plans to reintroduce grammar

:45:31.:45:35.

schools in England will be presented in the House

:45:36.:45:37.

of Commons this afternoon. Prime Minister Theresa May wants

:45:38.:45:39.

schools to be given the right to apply to select pupils

:45:40.:45:42.

by ability, as well as allowing But with several high profile Tory

:45:43.:45:44.

backbenchers having already voiced their opposition,

:45:45.:45:47.

how likely is it that With us is Conservative MP

:45:48.:45:49.

Neil Carmichael who heads up a group Hello to you. Good morning. It is

:45:50.:46:07.

great to be here. You don't like this plan, do you? What is really

:46:08.:46:11.

important is that we have good schools for all our pupils. No one

:46:12.:46:16.

will disagree with that? Well, I think that having an additional

:46:17.:46:20.

number of grammar schools and let's not forget, I've got two grammar

:46:21.:46:24.

schools in my constituency. I fought for them to expand. I think they

:46:25.:46:28.

should expand, so I'm not against grammar schools, but what I'm

:46:29.:46:32.

worried is about is we need the right mix of schools across the

:46:33.:46:34.

country and that includes technical schools. It includes school which

:46:35.:46:40.

can provide a mixture of academic study and technical studiment we're

:46:41.:46:43.

going to have a university technical college in my constituency shortly

:46:44.:46:47.

and that's the sort of model we need to see too. Does that mean that

:46:48.:46:54.

you're happy with the expansion of grammars and the expansion of being

:46:55.:46:59.

able to select on ability if there was the expansion of technical

:47:00.:47:04.

schools? That's one thing I would be pleased about, but it is not the

:47:05.:47:09.

only thing. I'm worried about the binary choice between a grammar

:47:10.:47:14.

school and a secondary school. That's unsettling for pupils and

:47:15.:47:17.

their parents whacht is better is a new exam system and the option to

:47:18.:47:21.

enable a child to get to a grammar school at other times during the

:47:22.:47:25.

year. For example if they were 14 or 16... Well, that's going to be part

:47:26.:47:30.

of the plans? I hope so. They're not saying there won't be the focus on

:47:31.:47:35.

taking a test at 11, you can have a go at 14 and 16? We need to make

:47:36.:47:40.

sure that test is fair and all pupils will be able to take it

:47:41.:47:44.

really with the sort of assurance that it will be good for them. OK. I

:47:45.:47:51.

want to talk about how you make a test fair. I can't tell yet if

:47:52.:47:54.

you're going to vote against the plans as they currently stand?

:47:55.:48:00.

Well... Be clear. As they stood last week, I wasn't impressed. As they

:48:01.:48:04.

are starting to emerge, I'm getting more content, but we will be hearing

:48:05.:48:09.

a lot more today both when I have a meeting with just teen Greening

:48:10.:48:13.

later and also when she addresses the House of Commons this afternoon.

:48:14.:48:17.

So we'll get more detail because we need more detail. This is a complex

:48:18.:48:21.

issue and what we don't want to do is sort of muddle up really six

:48:22.:48:25.

years of good reform and what I want to see for example in addition to

:48:26.:48:29.

what I have already said that that grammar schools can fit comfortable

:48:30.:48:33.

within multi-academy trusts, something we're looking at on our

:48:34.:48:37.

committee. It is not really a binary choice, there isn't just grammars

:48:38.:48:43.

and comprehensives, there is academies, Faith schools, grammars,

:48:44.:48:45.

etcetera, etcetera? Well, that would apply to certain parts of the

:48:46.:48:51.

country, but not all parts. This package also includes some changes

:48:52.:48:57.

to Faith schools because the 50% test in terms of entry is going to

:48:58.:49:01.

be abandoned so all children could become, could go to a school with

:49:02.:49:07.

Catholic leaning so to speak. So, there is a lot happening here. I

:49:08.:49:11.

think we've got to calibrate it properly so we end up with a fluid

:49:12.:49:17.

and holistic education system. Fluid because children can effectively go

:49:18.:49:21.

to the places which are going to suit them and their ambitions and

:49:22.:49:25.

their aptitudes and holistic so that all children can get a choice of

:49:26.:49:29.

what they really need, but that the education system provides the

:49:30.:49:33.

workforce that that country will need in the years to come. Is there

:49:34.:49:38.

any evidence that grammar schools are more successful than

:49:39.:49:41.

comprehensives at getting pupils into the top universities for

:49:42.:49:45.

example? Well, yes, that certainly is probably the case. Certainly in

:49:46.:49:49.

certain grammar schools, but I think the real question to ask are grammar

:49:50.:49:53.

schools successful at solving the social mobility issues? Is there any

:49:54.:49:58.

compelling evidence so far that that is happening? Is there? I don't

:49:59.:50:01.

think there is. So what we need to do is make sure the new approach to

:50:02.:50:06.

grammar schools actually does answer the question about social mobility.

:50:07.:50:10.

You will know that Theresa May is going to make sure that a proportion

:50:11.:50:14.

of children from poorer backgrounds will get into the new grammars?

:50:15.:50:20.

That's certainly the sort of theme I've heard and the question of qo

:50:21.:50:24.

fas and so forth, but the question is which pupils get to the grammar

:50:25.:50:29.

schools? We have too many areas in the north of England for example,

:50:30.:50:32.

but in other parts of the country where actually our primary schools

:50:33.:50:38.

aren't functioning properly so the output is not good for the secondary

:50:39.:50:43.

school as it stands. So we've got to improve the primary schools too to

:50:44.:50:47.

make the system work. I don't know how you make the 11-plus test fair,

:50:48.:50:52.

tutor-proof, wealthier parents can afford to send their kids to private

:50:53.:50:55.

tutors to make sure they pass that exam? That's a good point and we all

:50:56.:51:02.

know that tutoring is pretty endemic in the areas where grammar schools

:51:03.:51:08.

exist. I think that that is an illustration actually of the

:51:09.:51:12.

problem. I also think that some primary schools aren't really

:51:13.:51:16.

focussing on the kind of tests that might be for a grammar school in the

:51:17.:51:20.

future so we might to get that right too. Let's remember one important

:51:21.:51:25.

point and it is this - 16, 17, 18-year-olds in this country in

:51:26.:51:30.

general, 20% of them actually aren't really up to level two in either

:51:31.:51:34.

literacy or mathematics. That's really worrying. It is worrying

:51:35.:51:40.

because it is a fifth of our young people are leaving school with a

:51:41.:51:47.

fairly, well, basically casual understanding of both those areas.

:51:48.:51:50.

We need to addresses that and that's one of the top priorities and I

:51:51.:51:53.

think it should be one of the top priorities of the Government. Well,

:51:54.:51:55.

it is not so far. And do you think the grammar school plan then could

:51:56.:51:58.

be a distraction? Well, that's what I have been saying in the last week

:51:59.:52:02.

or so. I do think that focussing just on grammar schools will be a

:52:03.:52:08.

distraction from those other issues which I have really talked about

:52:09.:52:12.

already. Let's look at the questions pupils will take when it comes to

:52:13.:52:17.

the 11-plus, I'm not going to ask you for answer because I maybe

:52:18.:52:22.

accused of being sexist. Which of the cubes on the right are made from

:52:23.:52:26.

the cube net on left? Our audience are seeing this as well. Which of

:52:27.:52:31.

the cubes on the right make up the cube net on the left? Well, I

:52:32.:52:37.

haven't got my glasses. Oh well, do you want to borrow mine? Providing

:52:38.:52:43.

they are plus ones. Hang on a sec, let's see if these work for you!

:52:44.:52:48.

See if they're any good. I'm short-sighted, what about you? I'm

:52:49.:52:52.

going to find out in a minute! That made a slight improvement. OK. I'm

:52:53.:52:58.

going to answer possibly number, that one. That's A, B, C, D. I'm

:52:59.:53:06.

going to give it a B. It is D! It is D. Blame it on the specs. I

:53:07.:53:12.

will! But they are quite small. They're

:53:13.:53:19.

spec savers! You are the chair, aren't you? I am.

:53:20.:53:32.

I thought you looked at me funny. No, I was just thinking about the

:53:33.:53:33.

glasses! Now for something uplifting. That

:53:34.:53:41.

sounded like an ininsult at you! Now for something truly uplifting:

:53:42.:53:58.

hundreds of school pupils serenaded their teacher

:53:59.:54:13.

who is seriously ill with cancer outside his home in Tennessee

:54:14.:54:15.

in the United States. # To be overcome by your presence. #

:54:16.:54:34.

That's beautiful

:54:35.:54:34.

Those students gathered on the lawn while Ben Ellis,

:54:35.:54:49.

looked on with family from an open window.

:54:50.:54:52.

More than four hundred students drove to Ellis's house to sing songs

:54:53.:54:58.

Another teacher at the school revealed it was a spur

:54:59.:55:01.

Students were in the middle of class but, in her words, "dropped

:55:02.:55:05.

everything for a lesson in life, love, community and compassion".

:55:06.:55:07.

Yesterday was Britain's most successful day ever

:55:08.:55:09.

at the Paralympics - with a total 21 medals -

:55:10.:55:12.

eight of them gold - on the fourth day of competition in

:55:13.:55:14.

We can talk to Ellie Simmonds' mum. Ellie will be competing in the 200

:55:15.:55:30.

meters individual medley SM6 tonight. Her disability is

:55:31.:55:39.

classified as dwarfism. We can speak to the mum of Jessica-Jane

:55:40.:55:49.

Applegate. Jessica has won bronze and yesterday won silver in the

:55:50.:55:56.

freestyle event. She has Asperger's syndrome.

:55:57.:56:00.

Thank you both very much for talking to us. Dawn, I wonder first of all

:56:01.:56:06.

how you feel about your daughter's performance so far? She has been

:56:07.:56:12.

absolutely incredible. I can't wait to get her home and have a big

:56:13.:56:16.

cuddle, but she has got another two events yet. One on Wednesday and one

:56:17.:56:21.

on Saturday. But she is doing everybody back home so proud. She

:56:22.:56:25.

has got no family out there with her, but I know the British

:56:26.:56:29.

Paralympic team are right behind her. They're amazing. They are like

:56:30.:56:34.

a big family on tour. That sounds brilliant. Val, how is Ellie feeling

:56:35.:56:40.

ahead of her race today? I'm not too sure this morning because it is

:56:41.:56:43.

still early, but yesterday, she having feeling good. You know, she

:56:44.:56:48.

knows she has got a really tough job on her hands these next couple of

:56:49.:56:54.

days, but she fit, functioning well and ready to go. She was so

:56:55.:57:01.

successful at London 2012, I wonder if that adds pressure or makes her

:57:02.:57:07.

feel more invincible, what would you say Val? It probably adds pressure.

:57:08.:57:12.

Getting to the top is one thing and staying there is a lot, lot harder.

:57:13.:57:18.

Her classification is so strong. You know, so many different countries

:57:19.:57:23.

have got exceptional swimmers that, you know, she has got a really tough

:57:24.:57:28.

job on her hands and she knows it. But she knows people have

:57:29.:57:33.

expectations of her. You can't, but help feel the pressure. Dawn, I

:57:34.:57:38.

haven't got much time left. What do you say to your daughter in terms of

:57:39.:57:43.

just encouragement? Well, what will be, will be. We absolutely are proud

:57:44.:57:50.

of everything that she does. Win, just get in there. It is so amazing

:57:51.:57:56.

and every single one of them are inspirational and as a country, we

:57:57.:57:59.

are proud of every single one of them. Thank you very much, Dawn. I

:58:00.:58:04.

really appreciate it. Val, thank you. All the best to your daughters,

:58:05.:58:06.

thank you. On the programme tomorrow,

:58:07.:58:09.

an interview with the legend Thanks for watching today. We're

:58:10.:58:11.

back tomorrow at 9am. Even at lunch, you see them

:58:12.:58:31.

running around, doing interviews They're really engaging

:58:32.:58:39.

with the world around them. And it builds so many skills,

:58:40.:58:44.

researching stories,

:58:45.:58:48.
