:00:00. > :00:12.I'm Victoria Derbyshire. Welcome to the programme.

:00:13. > :00:15.20 million of us play video games in the UK.

:00:16. > :00:17.If you're a woman though sometimes it's just not fun.

:00:18. > :00:19.Women gamers tell us about the vicious abuse including

:00:20. > :00:30.The guy says, "I'm going to find out where you live and come and kill

:00:31. > :00:33.you." He said horrible things like that all the time.

:00:34. > :00:38.REPORTER: Did he? That's why, that was the final straw.

:00:39. > :00:41.We will let you know what YouTube and other sites are doing about it.

:00:42. > :00:44.After Sam Allardyce had to leave his job as England manager

:00:45. > :01:00.for "inappropriate conduct" exposed by the Daily Telegraph,

:01:01. > :01:04.today the paper reports that eight current or former played one won

:01:05. > :01:09.It's leader's speech day at the Labour conference in Liverpool -

:01:10. > :01:11.the day in which the party leader traditionally sets

:01:12. > :01:16.What will his vision for a Labour government be?

:01:17. > :01:27.And how will he reunite his divided party?

:01:28. > :01:34.Hello and welcome to the programme. We're live until 11am.

:01:35. > :01:37.It wasn't that long ago I was asking those of you who are England

:01:38. > :01:40.supporters who you thought the next England manager should be.

:01:41. > :01:44.After Sam Allardyce left Wembley hiding in the back

:01:45. > :01:52.of a car last night, humiliated and out of the job

:01:53. > :01:54.Who do you think the next head coach should be?

:01:55. > :01:57.Use the hashtag Victoria live and If you text, you will be charged

:01:58. > :02:02.Sam Allardyce says he is "deeply disappointed" to have left his role

:02:03. > :02:07.It came after he had offered advice on how to "get around" player

:02:08. > :02:09.transfer rules to undercover reporters from the Daily Telegraph

:02:10. > :02:16.As the FA begins its search for a new manager, it has been hit

:02:17. > :02:21.with fresh revelations in today's Telegraph with eight current

:02:22. > :02:23.or former Premier League managers accused of taking cash backhanders.

:02:24. > :02:25.There's a bit of flash photography in Andy Moore's report.

:02:26. > :02:28.After 67 days in the job, Sam Allardyce left Wembley last

:02:29. > :02:32.night with a 100% success rate from his one match in charge.

:02:33. > :02:35.He admitted a serious error of judgement and the FA were happy

:02:36. > :02:42.One of the things we have to do as a governing body is hold

:02:43. > :02:45.Sam admitted he hadn't met those high standards.

:02:46. > :02:50.It all began with such high hopes and high expectations.

:02:51. > :02:56.I can't stop smiling because I've this job.

:02:57. > :02:59.This is a job I have waited for for many years

:03:00. > :03:06.But it was a newspaper sting that caused his downfall.

:03:07. > :03:09.He talked about getting around strict rules on transfer deals

:03:10. > :03:11.and tried to negotiate a ?400,000 deal on top

:03:12. > :03:18.Today, the Telegraph accuses some Premier League managers

:03:19. > :03:20.of doing dodgy deals, but nobody is named.

:03:21. > :03:49.One agent said a fallen manager had had more backhanders than Wimbledon.

:03:50. > :03:52.Two of those agents have now denied wrongdoing, saying they were telling

:03:53. > :03:55.tall tales to impress their would-be clients.

:03:56. > :03:59.There are now calls for the FA to mount an independent inquiry

:04:00. > :04:04.They've been talking about Uefa and Fifa and saying they should

:04:05. > :04:09.I think the FA need to move and deal with this in a way

:04:10. > :04:19.The question now is whether the Telegraph investigation may

:04:20. > :04:35.Tell us more detail about the revelations today, apparently

:04:36. > :04:39.involving eight current or former Premier League managers? Yes, well

:04:40. > :04:44.the FA at Wembley has to deal with these allegations here in the Daily

:04:45. > :04:48.Telegraph, eight current or former Premier League managers. Two

:04:49. > :04:54.Championship managers as well we're told. None of them are named in the

:04:55. > :05:00.paper today. But the accusation is that they took so-called bungs,

:05:01. > :05:04.that's cash or money into Swiss bank accounts to help a transfer go

:05:05. > :05:08.through. The Telegraph will be naming, they say, later on in the

:05:09. > :05:13.week an assistant manager, at a leading club and they say they

:05:14. > :05:18.filmed that man accepting a ?5,000 cash payment. This is all part of a

:05:19. > :05:22.ten month long investigation under taken by The Daily Telegraph. They

:05:23. > :05:26.say they will give transcripts to the FA of their evidence. They say

:05:27. > :05:30.they've also given evidence to the police so there is always the

:05:31. > :05:36.possibility that there might be criminal investigations into bribery

:05:37. > :05:39.and corruption. Meanwhile the FA here has appointed a

:05:40. > :05:44.caretaker-manager, that's the under 21 boss Gareth Southgate. He will be

:05:45. > :05:48.leading the England squad for at least four games in October and

:05:49. > :05:55.November. The first game is just over a week away. That's against

:05:56. > :05:58.Malta here at Wembley. And those four games October, November, after

:05:59. > :06:06.that, there is a pause before March and the FA will have a chance to

:06:07. > :06:10.appoint a permanent manager, names being mentioned Eddie Howe, Steve

:06:11. > :06:15.Bruce, Alan Pardew, perhaps even Arsene Wenger if he could be prised

:06:16. > :06:17.away from Arsenal. We can speak to former FA

:06:18. > :06:26.Chairman David Bernstein. Hello. Hello Victoria. Do you have

:06:27. > :06:30.any sympathy for Sam Allardyce? Very little. I think for a man of this

:06:31. > :06:35.experience to be caught in the way he has been is naive and he has

:06:36. > :06:38.shown great disrespect. We use this word respect in football a great

:06:39. > :06:43.deal and he has shown very little respect to a great deal of people

:06:44. > :06:50.including his player, the FA and Roy Hodgson, who I know very well and

:06:51. > :06:53.the family. Why do you think he did what he did before he had taken a

:06:54. > :06:58.training session when he was on a two year contract at ?3 million a

:06:59. > :07:04.year? Well, you put it very well. Is it greed? Is it hubris? I don't

:07:05. > :07:08.know, I can't believe someone can be so stupid as to jeopardise a

:07:09. > :07:13.fantastic opportunity like this in this way. So it is beyond, you know,

:07:14. > :07:17.it is beyond comprehension that a man in his 60s, a mature man with

:07:18. > :07:23.lots of experience could get caught in this way. You must be really

:07:24. > :07:26.alarmed by the claims today in The Telegraph newspaper that there are

:07:27. > :07:33.eight former or current Premier League managers. They say, have also

:07:34. > :07:38.taken cash back-handers in order to smooth players' transfers? Well, of

:07:39. > :07:42.course, if it is proven and if they have got real evidence, of course,

:07:43. > :07:46.it is incredibly serious. It is a terrible thing for the English game.

:07:47. > :07:49.Let's see. I don't like speculating about these things until there is

:07:50. > :07:54.some serious hard evidence. They haven't mentioned any names as yet.

:07:55. > :07:57.So I'd rather bypass this until we know more, but potentially, it is

:07:58. > :08:01.dreadful. Yeah. And potentially the FA really need to look at their own

:08:02. > :08:05.structure of how they run the game, don't they? Because if it is true,

:08:06. > :08:11.this stuff is going on on their watch? Ah, Victoria, you are now

:08:12. > :08:14.coming to an issue that's key to me and I have been speaking to you and

:08:15. > :08:17.many others in the media about this for the last three years. You know,

:08:18. > :08:27.there was a Parliamentary Select Committee report on the FA which

:08:28. > :08:30.concluded that the FA's sfruk ture on governance was not fit for

:08:31. > :08:37.purpose. The FA has not taken on reform. It is not modern enough, but

:08:38. > :08:42.a fish rots from the head. We need to see change and unfortunately, and

:08:43. > :08:47.I found this and Greg Dyke found it, the FA will not change itself. It

:08:48. > :08:51.needs outside intervention and I think that the Sam Allardyce affair

:08:52. > :08:54.and many other things that I could spend a long while with you listing,

:08:55. > :08:57.huge numbers of different things including the relationship between

:08:58. > :09:02.the Premier League and the Football Association which I believe is not a

:09:03. > :09:04.balanced and healthy one, is at the centre of many issues in English

:09:05. > :09:07.football. Thank you very much for your time this morning. Thank you

:09:08. > :09:09.for coming on the programme. David Bernstein who was a former FA

:09:10. > :09:12.chairman. Joanna Gosling is in the BBC

:09:13. > :09:14.Newsroom with a summary The veteran Israeli

:09:15. > :09:18.politician Shimon Peres has In a career spanning

:09:19. > :09:21.almost seven decades, he served twice as prime minister,

:09:22. > :09:24.once as president and won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1994

:09:25. > :09:27.for achieving an interim peace deal James Landale looks

:09:28. > :09:32.back on his life. Shimon Peres was one

:09:33. > :09:34.of the last of a generation One of those leaders who had been

:09:35. > :09:39.there when the country Emigrating from Poland,

:09:40. > :09:48.he became a world statesman. A Prime Minister who devoted himself

:09:49. > :09:57.to the search for peace. There are people in Israel

:09:58. > :09:59.and elsewhere say it's impossible to make peace

:10:00. > :10:02.in Israel with the Jewish people. He arrived in Palestine as a boy

:10:03. > :10:06.in the 1930s when the holy land With Israel's founding fathers,

:10:07. > :10:10.he became the archetypal backroom fixer as the new

:10:11. > :10:12.Israeli state took shape. He helped negotiate the arms deals

:10:13. > :10:17.that helped secure Israel's military strength and the secret agreement

:10:18. > :10:20.that gave it the technology As a politician, he changed his

:10:21. > :10:27.views over time. He was a member of the government

:10:28. > :10:30.that approved the building of Jewish settlements on occupied

:10:31. > :10:32.Palestinian territory. But he came to see them later

:10:33. > :10:35.as an obstacle to peace. And he will be remembered perhaps

:10:36. > :10:43.most for his role in helping to negotiate the so-called

:10:44. > :10:47.Oslo Accords in 1993, alongside Yasser Arafat,

:10:48. > :10:51.Bill Clinton and Yitzahk Rabin. Israel's first peace agreement

:10:52. > :10:53.with the Palestinians may not have lived up to its early promise but it

:10:54. > :10:58.showed that a deal could be done. The agreement earned Shimon Peres

:10:59. > :11:01.a Nobel Peace Prize. But this acclaim on the

:11:02. > :11:04.international stage was never Although he served as Prime Minister

:11:05. > :11:10.twice, he never won His pragmatism never quite winning

:11:11. > :11:16.the trust of Israeli voters. Instead, Shimon Peres became

:11:17. > :11:18.the grandfather of his nation, still serving as president

:11:19. > :11:20.after his 90th birthday, still arguing peace could come

:11:21. > :11:32.only if Israel remained strong. The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn,

:11:33. > :11:34.addresses the party's annual conference in Liverpool today

:11:35. > :11:38.in a keenly awaited speech. He'll address the issue

:11:39. > :11:40.of immigration and is expected to say a Labour government

:11:41. > :11:43.would reinstate a fund to soften However, Mr Corbyn risks upsetting

:11:44. > :11:48.some delegates by not promising He'll also call for an end

:11:49. > :11:53.to Labour's "trench warfare", and urge the party to

:11:54. > :11:59.prepare itself for power. Two of the biggest gaming sites

:12:00. > :12:02.in the world say they are battling to stamp out sexist and misogynistic

:12:03. > :12:04.comments and behaviour Female gamers have told BBC Radio 1

:12:05. > :12:10.Newsbeat they are regularly abused Twitch says improvements

:12:11. > :12:19.are "happening as fast as we can" and YouTube says "harassment has no

:12:20. > :12:22.place on the platform and we have Syrian government forces,

:12:23. > :12:25.backed by Russian airstrikes, say they've seized a rebel-held

:12:26. > :12:28.district in the centre of Aleppo. The area has been under heavy

:12:29. > :12:30.bombardment since the collapse Civilian volunteers say there have

:12:31. > :12:33.been 1,700 airstrikes over There's criticism of plans

:12:34. > :12:42.to restrict the use of bail for criminal suspects in England

:12:45. > :12:48.by Theresa May when she was the Home Secretary,

:12:49. > :12:50.are designed to reduce the amount of time suspects

:12:51. > :12:52.spend on police bail. But the College of Policing,

:12:53. > :12:54.which sets police guidelines, Secret MI5 files suggest a row

:12:55. > :13:06.between a spy and his wife almost compromised

:13:07. > :13:08.World War Two D-Day operations. Juan Pujol, who was codenamed

:13:09. > :13:11.Agent Garbo, had helped to convince the Nazis the landings would not

:13:12. > :13:13.take place in Normandy But in June 1943 his wife had

:13:14. > :13:21.threatened to go to the Spanish embassy, angry at the pressures

:13:22. > :13:23.of their double-life and being confined

:13:24. > :13:31.to their London house. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

:13:32. > :13:34.have gone wine-tasting on the latest They've been to a hilltop winery

:13:35. > :13:37.in the Okanagan region where they've been sampling local

:13:38. > :13:44.Canadian delicacies. That's a summary of

:13:45. > :13:45.the latest BBC News. In a moment we will be

:13:46. > :14:01.talking to women gamers about the vicious abuse

:14:02. > :14:03.that they've received whilst And of course we want

:14:04. > :14:06.to hear from you if you've Do get in touch with us

:14:07. > :14:10.throughout the morning - use the hashtag Victoria live

:14:11. > :14:13.and If you text, you will be charged Let's get some sport now

:14:14. > :14:18.with Hugh Woozencroft. Who is going to take over from Sam

:14:19. > :14:21.Allardyce? Well, if you're going to the bookmakers today you will see

:14:22. > :14:23.the name of Gareth Southgate as the current favourite. He is the under

:14:24. > :14:25.21 boss. He has been installed in the interim and he will be installed

:14:26. > :14:29.for four games. He is going to have to impress. He

:14:30. > :14:33.has limited experience in club management. He spent three years in

:14:34. > :14:39.charge of Middlesbrough, but that ended in 2009. Given England's World

:14:40. > :14:43.Cup qualifying group, he is seen as easy and he will have to win the

:14:44. > :14:48.games and have to win them well to be handed the job on a permanent

:14:49. > :14:52.basis. Other names, Steve Bruce, the former Hull City and Sunderland

:14:53. > :14:55.manager is very much in the Sam Allardyce mould. He is seen as

:14:56. > :14:59.having done very well over the years with so-called smaller teams. He is

:15:00. > :15:04.vastly experienced and former Manchester United captain. There is

:15:05. > :15:07.Eddie Howe. He is just 38 years old, but he built himself a strong

:15:08. > :15:10.reputation over the last five years. He is currently the Bournemouth

:15:11. > :15:15.manager. They reached the Premier League, of course, they ensured

:15:16. > :15:19.survival last season and they did it in style as well, many seeing it as

:15:20. > :15:25.too soon for him to take on a role as big as the England manager's.

:15:26. > :15:29.There is Arsene Wenger. Well, he is in the last year of his contract

:15:30. > :15:32.with the club. He is an option too. He turned down the opportunity in

:15:33. > :15:37.the summer. He told the media that it wasn't a job he wanted to do. He

:15:38. > :15:41.wanted to honour his contract with Arsenal. There is another foreign

:15:42. > :15:45.option, Jurgen Klinsmann, the German. He is with the United

:15:46. > :15:50.States. He was mooted when Sam Allardyce got the job too. And there

:15:51. > :15:54.are more names involved. For the second time in awe months, the hunt

:15:55. > :16:02.is on for the new boss of England, who it will be remains to be seen.

:16:03. > :16:08.On the pitch last night, some really good results for teams in the

:16:09. > :16:13.English Champions League. Two positive results. Leicester were

:16:14. > :16:16.hosting their first match in the competition, and then new striker

:16:17. > :16:20.Islam Slimani continued what is a prolific record of scoring against

:16:21. > :16:24.the Portuguese giants Porto. He has faced them many times when he was

:16:25. > :16:28.with Sporting Lisbon. He headed in the only goal of the game from a

:16:29. > :16:33.Riyad Mahrez cross. That came much to the delight of their fans, as you

:16:34. > :16:38.can see. They are now top of group G, so a great start for Claudio

:16:39. > :16:42.Ranieri's side in the competition. Spurs responded to their defeat in

:16:43. > :16:52.game one with a 1-0 win over CSKA Moscow, Son Heung-min scoring. They

:16:53. > :16:58.now sit second in group E. So we will be back later, talking more

:16:59. > :17:03.about the sport, but we are hoping to hear from Sam Allardyce as well.

:17:04. > :17:09.We will see what he has got to say shortly. Yes, we are told he may say

:17:10. > :17:11.something about 9.30. We will bring that to you live.

:17:12. > :17:14.There are around 20 million of us in the UK that play

:17:15. > :17:18.For many, sharing footage of ourselves as we play and watch

:17:19. > :17:20.others game online is also part of the fun.

:17:21. > :17:23.But some women who get involved say they receive terrible abuse

:17:24. > :17:25.while gaming online simply because they are women.

:17:26. > :17:28.Now, two of the biggest websites in the world that host gaming

:17:29. > :17:31.content like this have told BBC Radio 1 Newsbeat they're doing

:17:32. > :17:35.all they can to get rid of misogynistic abuse

:17:36. > :17:43.Let's talk to Newsbeat's gaming reporter Steffan Powell -

:17:44. > :17:50.Some of the gamers you have spoken to have thousands of viewers at any

:17:51. > :17:55.one time, a massive audience for some pretty violent, sexist abuse,

:17:56. > :17:59.isn't it? They are very popular sites these days, because this has

:18:00. > :18:02.become a part of the gaming community. Gaming has moved on loads

:18:03. > :18:06.from the days when people used to play in their bedrooms on their own.

:18:07. > :18:11.It is all about community and sharing experiences with each other.

:18:12. > :18:15.Like you say, some have thousands of followers and others just have a few

:18:16. > :18:18.thousand. But it doesn't matter how many people follow these sites and

:18:19. > :18:23.share the content, it is still there to be seen. Sites like Twitter and

:18:24. > :18:28.YouTube give you a chance to have your own online TV station in your

:18:29. > :18:32.bedroom, and you can share that experience with anybody in the

:18:33. > :18:35.world. The majority of it is positive interaction. People can

:18:36. > :18:41.comment and say they like what you are doing. But some of it has turned

:18:42. > :18:42.nasty. We can hear now from a girl who tells about her experiences in

:18:43. > :18:46.the past. When I used to do Call

:18:47. > :18:52.of Duty commentaries when I first started YouTube,

:18:53. > :18:55.people would comment on my videos and they would be like,

:18:56. > :18:58."You're only getting views because you're a girl -

:18:59. > :19:00.if you were a boy, And they would leave

:19:01. > :19:04.nasty comments as well, and it seems to always be

:19:05. > :19:06.about appearance - So it would be guys commenting,

:19:07. > :19:16.like, "Oh, you look horrible." But then I moved away from that

:19:17. > :19:19.content and started doing Minecraft, and now I have a child

:19:20. > :19:21.audience and nobody comments So you don't make as many videos

:19:22. > :19:25.with first person shooter games as you used to,

:19:26. > :19:28.you've changed the games you play? I feel like the games I played

:19:29. > :19:30.definitely influenced the sort of reaction I got,

:19:31. > :19:33.but I guess it is down You would get messages and comments

:19:34. > :19:38.on your videos. I had a guy that was obsessed

:19:39. > :19:45.with me for a very long time, and he was obsessed with the idea

:19:46. > :19:49.of me being a female and gaming, so he would comment

:19:50. > :19:51.on my videos every day, and he would tweet me every day

:19:52. > :19:54.and I would ban his accounts, and he would still make

:19:55. > :19:57.more, and more and more, and he would harass all my friends

:19:58. > :20:00.as well, and it started to get out of control,

:20:01. > :20:03.and that went on for four years. Was it quite personal

:20:04. > :20:06.stuff then, I guess? Yeah, he would even

:20:07. > :20:11.mention my family members - he even mentioned my friends' family

:20:12. > :20:16.members to them. He didn't threaten you or anything

:20:17. > :20:21.like that? Yeah, he was like, "I'm

:20:22. > :20:25.going to find out where you live, Yeah, he said horrible things

:20:26. > :20:29.like that all the time. I first of all told my mum,

:20:30. > :20:38.and she was like, "I don't know if anyone will do anything about it,

:20:39. > :20:41.with it being online." He could live in a different

:20:42. > :20:44.country, and then that's even more difficult to stop people,

:20:45. > :20:50.so I felt very lost. It was definitely worth carrying

:20:51. > :20:53.on because I have a loyal and loving fan base that just keeps growing,

:20:54. > :21:03.so those nice comments that people leave just totally outweigh

:21:04. > :21:05.the horrible ones. It's really annoying

:21:06. > :21:07.that it is still an issue, I'm not personally being affected

:21:08. > :21:18.by it, but it really makes me angry It is sort of par for the course if

:21:19. > :21:22.you are online, but you have taken these findings to YouTube and Twitch

:21:23. > :21:26.as well as the gaming industry. What do they say? Yeah, this is not new

:21:27. > :21:31.for people when it comes to online interaction. But we have spoken to

:21:32. > :21:34.Twitch and YouTube, and they are acknowledging that this is a

:21:35. > :21:38.problem. But they say they are doing the best they can. Twitch say they

:21:39. > :21:44.are working on new technology which will allow moderators to block users

:21:45. > :21:47.more effectively than at the moment. YouTube said there is no place for

:21:48. > :21:52.this on their site and there are clear guidelines to try and stop it

:21:53. > :21:55.from happening. The industry itself has moved on a lot when it comes to

:21:56. > :22:05.relations with women in the last few years. The trade body for gaming in

:22:06. > :22:08.the UK is saying to us, this is a society problem and there is a

:22:09. > :22:11.shared responsibility to tackle this through education and technology. It

:22:12. > :22:17.is not just something in gaming, it is a big issue elsewhere. Every

:22:18. > :22:23.other week, there are some issue about sexism in all sorts of

:22:24. > :22:30.professions. It is happening in film and music and sport. With gaming,

:22:31. > :22:34.they feel that they get it more because it is in that transition

:22:35. > :22:40.phase between being something that was more of a niche activity to

:22:41. > :22:44.something everybody does. Let's talk to Bex Bennett, a gamer who live

:22:45. > :22:51.streams herself playing on first person shooter games. We were also

:22:52. > :22:57.spoke to an Tony fox, a gamer who has written a dissertation on

:22:58. > :23:02.misogyny in gaming -- Antonia fox. Bex Bennett, tell us about the stuff

:23:03. > :23:07.you get when you are gaming. Oh, gosh. I have started getting

:23:08. > :23:12.desensitised to some of the abuse I get, especially on first person

:23:13. > :23:17.shooter games. They expect you to be a guy. If you are beating them and

:23:18. > :23:21.you are on the opposite team, you get so much horrible comments,

:23:22. > :23:31.threatening you, telling you that you are hacking, derogatory names.

:23:32. > :23:34.It is shocking, but like I say, I have now become desensitised to it.

:23:35. > :23:42.It is more shocking to me when I get a nice comment now. You don't expect

:23:43. > :23:46.it. As soon as I get a message ping up, I am thinking, what are they

:23:47. > :23:52.going to say now? But if it is something nice, I don't know what to

:23:53. > :23:59.say. Do you think the right tools are there to help you deal with that

:24:00. > :24:04.when it happens? One of the platforms I also use is Instagram,

:24:05. > :24:08.and on the comment section now, there is an option to block certain

:24:09. > :24:11.words, which will block out the whole comment. That stops people

:24:12. > :24:16.getting in contact with you that way, which I think is great. I think

:24:17. > :24:24.other platforms like Twitter and YouTube should follow in their

:24:25. > :24:28.footsteps. Do you think there is specifically something about gaming?

:24:29. > :24:32.We have seen this issue in other fields, but is there something about

:24:33. > :24:40.gaming that seems to draw out this sort of behaviour? Yes, I do. Like

:24:41. > :24:43.you say, it is in all industries. But with gaming, it is such a male

:24:44. > :24:54.dominated world, especially with first person shooters. I think they

:24:55. > :25:03.are not expecting a girl to be good at the game. Lets bring in Antonia.

:25:04. > :25:05.Tell us about your own experiences, bearing in mind that we are on

:25:06. > :25:09.morning television, so that restrict the language you can use. But give

:25:10. > :25:16.us an idea of what you have to put up with. A lot of streamers have to

:25:17. > :25:21.not only deal with it, but they expect that sort of behaviour.

:25:22. > :25:25.Harassment, often gendered slurs, and often comments about their

:25:26. > :25:30.appearance as well. One of my participants in my research has said

:25:31. > :25:33.it is like prepping for battle, because they are having to face

:25:34. > :25:38.these comments whilst they are streaming. Before they start

:25:39. > :25:42.streaming, they often apply make-up and start to get ready for the

:25:43. > :25:55.people in comments to start attacking their appearance. Wow, so

:25:56. > :25:59.they are battle ready. And not only getting ready to play their game.

:26:00. > :26:08.That in itself is a battle, but it is a battle against the audience as

:26:09. > :26:14.well. What do you think you can -- can be done? What can be done to

:26:15. > :26:22.stop it happening in the future? People who love gaming are almost

:26:23. > :26:26.fed up of having this conversation. Definitely, the route with

:26:27. > :26:30.moderators is important. A lot of streamers in my study said they

:26:31. > :26:40.heavily rely on moderators to have a safe and respectful chat. That

:26:41. > :26:45.should definitely be pursued. But I urge gamers and people that watch

:26:46. > :26:50.Twitch to really think about what they are commenting. Do you have any

:26:51. > :26:56.idea how old the people are who are sending you these horrible comments?

:26:57. > :27:04.It can range from anything from 12 years old to about 40. It is such a

:27:05. > :27:09.wide spectrum of age. That is depressing. Have you ever pretended

:27:10. > :27:15.to be a blow to see if there is any difference in reaction to you? I

:27:16. > :27:20.haven't pretended to be a bloke, per se, but I have had a gamer tag that

:27:21. > :27:26.is not gender specific. And obviously, I didn't get any hate

:27:27. > :27:31.comments at all. It is worth mentioning that this is not specific

:27:32. > :27:35.to a particular title or particular console or a way of gaming, this is

:27:36. > :27:41.an issue that seems to come up across the spectrum. So it needs

:27:42. > :27:48.that community approach to tackling it. And it is an issue that the

:27:49. > :27:53.websites are aware of and they are trying to do something about it.

:27:54. > :27:56.They acknowledge that the pace of change is frustrating even for them.

:27:57. > :28:01.We spoke to a spokesperson for Twitch, a former host of the sports

:28:02. > :28:05.competition, and she has had experience of this herself. She was

:28:06. > :28:13.telling Newsbeat that the pace of change is slow, but it is moving as

:28:14. > :28:20.quickly as possible. Bex, thanks for coming on. Antonia, thank you very

:28:21. > :28:25.much. Your experiences are welcome as well. Send me an e-mail.

:28:26. > :28:28.Still to come: Jeremy Corbyn stands up in front of Labour delegates

:29:46. > :29:47.to say a Labour government would reinstate a fund

:29:48. > :29:49.to soften the impact on local communities.

:29:50. > :29:53.However, Mr Corbyn risks upsetting some delegates by not promising

:29:54. > :29:57.He'll also call for an end to Labour's "trench warfare"

:29:58. > :30:05.and urge the party to prepare itself for power.

:30:06. > :30:08.South Wales police are investigating the deaths of a man and woman

:32:22. > :32:24.He's giving his speech to the party conference in Liverpool.

:32:25. > :32:27.And what does his vision of Labour's future look like?

:32:28. > :32:30.Norman will be watching closely and leaders' speeches at party

:32:31. > :32:40.Vic, hi, today it is the big one. It is Jeremy Corbyn's chance to sort of

:32:41. > :32:43.punch threw and grab the electorate's attention to, set out

:32:44. > :32:47.what it is he wants to achieve, to define himself. Let's be honest,

:32:48. > :32:50.most people probably don't pay that much attention to Labour

:32:51. > :32:55.Conferences, it is like an annoying buzz in their ear! Today is

:32:56. > :33:00.different, leader's day is a moment when people do perhaps listen and

:33:01. > :33:04.see who it is wants to be their next Prime Minister and if you doubt

:33:05. > :33:08.that, have a look at this film I put together of recent leaders' speeches

:33:09. > :33:12.and the sort of key defining moments and how important they can be.

:33:13. > :33:14.Implausible promises don't win victories.

:33:15. > :33:17.I'll tell you what happens with impossible promises - you start

:33:18. > :33:27.They're then pickled into a rigid dogma code,

:33:28. > :33:30.and you go through the years sticking to that -

:33:31. > :33:34.outdated, misplaced, irrelevant to the real needs -

:33:35. > :33:46.and you end in the grotesque chaos of a Labour council,

:33:47. > :33:55.a Labour council, hiring taxies, to scuttle round a city,

:33:56. > :33:57.handing out redundancy notices to its own workers.

:33:58. > :34:00.And to the Prime Minister, I say this.

:34:01. > :34:04.The quiet man is here to stay and he is turning up the volume.

:34:05. > :34:11.It has always been absurd that the debate about crime in this

:34:12. > :34:14.country has some talking of its causes and others of the need

:34:15. > :34:17.Sweep away the dogma - tough on crime, tough

:34:18. > :34:22.Real change is about changing our culture and identity

:34:23. > :34:27.It is not some slick rebranding exercise

:34:28. > :34:30.or marketing exercise in spin - it's about making sure that

:34:31. > :34:33.at the next election - when all of you, when I,

:34:34. > :34:39.and when everyone in this room goes out and fight the greatest

:34:40. > :34:44.battle of our lives - street by street, house by house,

:34:45. > :34:48.flat by flat, that we have a message that is relevant to people today,

:34:49. > :34:51.that shows we of this modern country as it is and shows

:34:52. > :34:54.that we think our best days lie ahead as a country.

:34:55. > :35:10.So, I guess there will be a bit of anticipation, won't there, Norman

:35:11. > :35:16.ahead of the speech today from Mr Corbyn. What do party members want

:35:17. > :35:22.him to say? Well, that is the key question because I guess it all

:35:23. > :35:26.hinges on who Mr Corbyn sees as his audience today, is it the party

:35:27. > :35:29.faithful in the hall? Is it Labour supporters out in the country? Is it

:35:30. > :35:34.people who have never voted? Has he got to reach out to people who

:35:35. > :35:39.simply are not his people? To get a sense of what ordinary party members

:35:40. > :35:44.want him to do, I had a chat with some of them yesterday and here is

:35:45. > :35:47.what they told me. I want him to be unifying and to be positive about

:35:48. > :35:53.some of the people that may have left. As a Labour member, as a

:35:54. > :35:58.Labour activist, I need to be reassured that Jeremy is in it to

:35:59. > :36:01.win it. He should continue saying what he has been saying all along.

:36:02. > :36:06.He has been saying some really good things. Our problem is that the

:36:07. > :36:09.media twists and distorts and reports those things in a way that

:36:10. > :36:12.isn't positive REPORTER: Do you think he can reach

:36:13. > :36:17.out to people who don't think like him? Who maybe hostile to him? I

:36:18. > :36:20.mean I hope he can reach out to them and that's the whole, that's what we

:36:21. > :36:24.have to do. That's the goal of winning a general election and

:36:25. > :36:29.getting the majority. I don't know if he can. As selfish as it might

:36:30. > :36:33.sound, he needs to talk to us and he needs to unite us before we're able

:36:34. > :36:36.to reach out beyond this bubble and until we do that, people like my

:36:37. > :36:41.parents who have been Labour voters are never going to listen. It has

:36:42. > :36:46.been a divided summer aflt pretty poor summer for Labour let's be

:36:47. > :36:50.honest. Now we can turn around and if he can capture and make people

:36:51. > :36:52.believe in his vision of the economy, we're going to win that

:36:53. > :36:57.next election. And we're going to take that vision out for him. Yeah,

:36:58. > :37:00.we'll be there. We need to show we are a party in waiting. We are the

:37:01. > :37:07.better alternative. We can be in Government.

:37:08. > :37:10.I'm joined biowent Jones. A man who is well plugged into Team Corbyn

:37:11. > :37:14.thinking. Give us your sense of what Jeremy Corbyn has got to do today? I

:37:15. > :37:17.think firstly, he has to show actually the Labour Party is far

:37:18. > :37:23.more united than people give it credit for. It is not like the 1980s

:37:24. > :37:25.where there is big ideological confrontations going on on

:37:26. > :37:30.investment and the economy, and secondary mod rns and on a publicly

:37:31. > :37:34.funded properly resourced National Health Service. There is a large

:37:35. > :37:38.degree of consensus. He needs to make that clear without, because all

:37:39. > :37:42.we have had over the past three months is Labour Party naval gazing.

:37:43. > :37:45.So he has to show he can reach beyond the people who turn up to

:37:46. > :37:50.rallies, the people who have joined the Labour Party, the middle income

:37:51. > :37:55.voter, who works in an office, in Nuneaton for example to pick a place

:37:56. > :37:59.from thin air and that's talking about things like home ownership as

:38:00. > :38:03.well as building council housing and talking about older voters who

:38:04. > :38:06.Labour have haemorrhaged support since 1997 as well as a younger

:38:07. > :38:10.generation that fears they will be worse off than their parents. We

:38:11. > :38:13.have seen this row over immigration and his suggestion that you don't

:38:14. > :38:18.need to tackle numbers and that fuels a sense that Mr Corbyn is good

:38:19. > :38:22.at speaking to his own people. He is good at speaking to a metropolitan

:38:23. > :38:25.audience, but can he communicate beyond that? Immigration is an

:38:26. > :38:30.example of a division going throughout the natural Labour

:38:31. > :38:33.coalition. If you take big cities, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool

:38:34. > :38:37.and so on, people are more well-disposed towards immigration

:38:38. > :38:44.particularly younger voters, it is places like Stockport and smaller

:38:45. > :38:48.towns where there is a lot of resentment about immigration. He has

:38:49. > :38:51.to say, "Look, we had a referendum which is more about immigration than

:38:52. > :38:57.anything else." He understands people's concerns. People don't mind

:38:58. > :38:59.disagreeing if they think there is an understanding and appreciation

:39:00. > :39:04.from where people are coming from and that's why I think making this

:39:05. > :39:08.idea of a migrant impact fund the Tories abolished, so the places with

:39:09. > :39:11.higher levels of immigration get extra resources to cope the with

:39:12. > :39:15.pressure on public services, to talk for example about English language

:39:16. > :39:19.services which are being cut because of a lack of investment in public

:39:20. > :39:24.services. So I think make that front and central we will deal with your

:39:25. > :39:26.concerns, we understand them. We will not set limits because the

:39:27. > :39:29.previous Government did that and failed and undermined people's faith

:39:30. > :39:34.in politics, but we will address the concerns and we understand. Let's

:39:35. > :39:39.talk performance because it is a performance today. We played clips

:39:40. > :39:42.by famous speeches by the likes of Neil kin OK, does Jeremy Corbyn have

:39:43. > :39:46.the ability to deliver that sort of performance? Everything I have seen

:39:47. > :39:50.of him, he doesn't really do those big moments, does he? Well, I think

:39:51. > :39:54.he's capable of them actually. I think if you take the acceptance

:39:55. > :39:57.speech this year compared to when he won last year, there is a marked

:39:58. > :40:02.improvement and obviously he was someone who never expected to become

:40:03. > :40:07.leader... Do you think we exaggerate the importance of that tour deforce

:40:08. > :40:17.and people aren't bothered Threw suggesting the media focus too much

:40:18. > :40:19.on style and substance? Come off it. Ron rald Regan had morning in

:40:20. > :40:22.America. If Jeremy Corbyn does a speech which says look at the great

:40:23. > :40:27.things this great country has achieved, the NHS, the welfare

:40:28. > :40:31.state, over coming tyranny in World War II, moments of great courage and

:40:32. > :40:35.determination and to draw on the great traditions that Britain is

:40:36. > :40:39.united behind a common purpose we can build a better society and make

:40:40. > :40:45.people feel good about themselves. Sometimes people like me on the left

:40:46. > :40:48.come across miserable and dower, the rights and freedoms that our

:40:49. > :40:53.ancestors fought for, let's build on that and look at the great society,

:40:54. > :40:57.one of the richest countries on earth that provides for all. If he

:40:58. > :41:02.makes people feel optimistic in a country which is sick of division

:41:03. > :41:06.after an acrimonious referendum campaign, remain or leave, we want

:41:07. > :41:11.the same things and we want to build a better society. Jeremy Corbyn

:41:12. > :41:13.riled when he was interviewed when he was asked if there was a

:41:14. > :41:16.comparison between him and Donald Trump? Maybe there is in the sense

:41:17. > :41:21.that Donald Trump is a very different politician. He is not

:41:22. > :41:24.business as usual. I wonder if he is kind of almost an anti-politics

:41:25. > :41:28.figure and maybe that's what people like about him. That he is not the

:41:29. > :41:33.normal politician. That's his strongest suit and maybe that's what

:41:34. > :41:36.he ought to play up? Donald Trump calls Mexicans rapists and

:41:37. > :41:39.criminals. There is a clear difference between the two. It is

:41:40. > :41:42.the case that there is an anti-politics mood sweeping the

:41:43. > :41:45.western world. You can't look at the rise of Jeremy Corbyn without

:41:46. > :41:51.looking at what happened in the United States, Bernie Sanders and

:41:52. > :41:55.Donald Trump and new insurgent antiestablishment parties. He is

:41:56. > :42:00.part of the that. One of the reasons he emerged when he did because there

:42:01. > :42:05.was a vacuum waiting to be filled. Actually I think a lot of the

:42:06. > :42:09.perceptive and reflective elements of the old order of the Labour Party

:42:10. > :42:14.understand that, but I think what he has to do is tap into that point

:42:15. > :42:18.which is to say Britain is sick of an old professionalised scripted

:42:19. > :42:22.politician and I'm not that kind of politician. You've got to turn

:42:23. > :42:24.things which are used to attack you into your strengths and one of the

:42:25. > :42:28.things that people are sick of in Britain is the idea of a certain

:42:29. > :42:33.type of politician, if he can say, I'm different sort of guy and you

:42:34. > :42:37.know in a country which people like Nigel Farage, I think that's

:42:38. > :42:44.something which can turn a weakness, I suppose the media would say into a

:42:45. > :42:49.strength. We know much of the speech will be about unity. He is going to

:42:50. > :42:53.call for an end to trench warfare. Are there going to be people in the

:42:54. > :42:56.Labour Party who will never come on board with Jeremy Corbyn because

:42:57. > :43:00.they disagree with his politics? They're not there to become part of

:43:01. > :43:04.Team Corbyn whatever he says? Well, you have some MPs who don't like his

:43:05. > :43:08.politics that's obviously the case, but most MPs actually are frankly,

:43:09. > :43:10.they don't have massive political disagreements with Jeremy Corbyn.

:43:11. > :43:14.They have concerns, yes, about whether he can win an election. They

:43:15. > :43:18.worry about keeping their own seats. They worry about competence and

:43:19. > :43:21.messaging, but actually, again on those issues, there isn't much

:43:22. > :43:27.different. I think what he needs to do is separate the irreconcileables

:43:28. > :43:32.and love bomb the rest and that means give-and-take, whilst MPs need

:43:33. > :43:38.to accept the democratic verdict of the members, no more talk of

:43:39. > :43:40.mandatory reselections. A lot of the middle ground of the Parliamentary

:43:41. > :43:44.Labour Party that would assuage their concerns and the main thing he

:43:45. > :43:47.has to do is show he has got an election winning strategy, a clear

:43:48. > :43:50.coherent strategy that reaches beyond the party faithful. Do you

:43:51. > :43:55.think Jeremy Corbyn enjoys being leader now? I heard him yesterday

:43:56. > :43:58.saying it was fun. But whenever I see him being interviewed by the

:43:59. > :44:02.media and I expect before the speech today, you get the sense he is

:44:03. > :44:07.really not that comfortable with it? Who would want to be Leader of the

:44:08. > :44:12.Opposition? It is one of the most miserable jobs I can imagine! I

:44:13. > :44:15.suppose probably if you were in his position it is great to be part of

:44:16. > :44:22.something that feels like an exciting mass movement to see lots

:44:23. > :44:26.of energised people, but if you're battered by people on your own side

:44:27. > :44:30.and by the media, that's exhausting. To be honest, with Jeremy Corbyn, he

:44:31. > :44:36.is somebody who stood out of a sense of duty. I don't think anyone could

:44:37. > :44:40.accuse him of being a careerist. He spent years on the periphery of

:44:41. > :44:43.politics in the Labour Party. Despite his often, things which went

:44:44. > :44:47.wrong, not least because he didn't want to be leader, that's why things

:44:48. > :44:50.have gone wrong, I suppose, but I think he just feels a sense of duty.

:44:51. > :44:53.He feels it is his responsibility to fight for the causes that the people

:44:54. > :44:57.elected him to fight for. Owen Jones, thank you very much. Vic,

:44:58. > :45:01.surely the one thing we can say about Jeremy Corbyn this is a man

:45:02. > :45:05.who has consistently defied expectations. No one thought he had

:45:06. > :45:09.a snowball's chance of becoming lead are and probably nobody thought he

:45:10. > :45:12.would still be leader. He is. He has a bigger mandate and he is still

:45:13. > :45:15.there and today is a big day for him.

:45:16. > :45:23.Full coverage on BBC News. Sam Allardyce has been speaking

:45:24. > :45:29.about the revelations that led to him losing his job as England

:45:30. > :45:34.manager. This is what he said. "It Was an error of judgment on my

:45:35. > :45:39.behalf and I have paid the consequences. Entrapment has won. I

:45:40. > :45:44.think on reflection, it was a silly thing to do. Just to let everyone

:45:45. > :45:50.know, I sort of help doubt somebody I have known for 30 years.

:45:51. > :45:55.Unfortunately, it was an error of judgment on my behalf. I have paid

:45:56. > :45:59.the consequences. Entrapment has won on this occasion, and I have to

:46:00. > :46:03.accept that. The agreement was done very amicably with the FA and I

:46:04. > :46:07.apologise to those and all concerned in the unfortunate position I have

:46:08. > :46:12.put myself in. I am off abroad to chill out and reflect. I would like

:46:13. > :46:24.to wish all the England lads, Gareth and all the staff the very best". I

:46:25. > :46:30.think that on reflection, it was a silly thing to do. But just to let

:46:31. > :46:35.everybody know, I sort of help doubt somebody I had known for 30 years.

:46:36. > :46:39.Unfortunately, it was an error of judgment on my part and I paid the

:46:40. > :46:47.consequences. Entrapment has won on this occasion, and I have to accept

:46:48. > :46:56.that. The agreement was done very amicably with the FA. I apologise to

:46:57. > :47:02.those and all concerned in this unfortunate situation I have put

:47:03. > :47:09.myself in. I have a confidentiality agreement. I can't answer any more

:47:10. > :47:14.questions right now. What are you going to do now? I am off abroad,

:47:15. > :47:18.just to chill out and reflect. I would like to wish all the England

:47:19. > :47:26.lads, Gareth and the staff the best. Was that your last job in football?

:47:27. > :47:30.Who knows? Thanks. Sam Allardyce, looking pretty devastated, I have to

:47:31. > :47:36.say. It wasn't quite loud enough to hear everything he has been saying.

:47:37. > :47:41.But as I said before we heard him speak, he said "Entrapment has won

:47:42. > :47:46.on this occasion and I have to accept that. The agreement was done

:47:47. > :47:50.very amicably with the FA and I apologise to those and all concerned

:47:51. > :47:54.in the unfortunate position I have put myself in". He's off to chill

:47:55. > :47:59.out and reflect, and he said best of luck to Gareth Southgate, all the

:48:00. > :48:04.staff and/or the England lads. Final question put to him was, last job in

:48:05. > :48:08.football? He said, who knows? Wait and see. But he looked tired and

:48:09. > :48:17.devastated. Some comments from you. Lawrence says a dice is a disgrace

:48:18. > :48:20.-- Sam Allardyce is a disgrace. Somebody suggested that Glenn Hoddle

:48:21. > :48:24.should be the next England manager. But he has been out of football for

:48:25. > :48:33.a long time, hasn't he? Your views are welcome. You can tweet, send me

:48:34. > :48:36.an e-mail, WhatsApp, text etc. I have got loads of comments from you

:48:37. > :48:41.about gaming. If you are saying misogyny has to be tackled. But

:48:42. > :48:45.quite a few are saying men get just as many horrific comments. I will

:48:46. > :48:47.bring those to you before ten o'clock.

:48:48. > :48:50.Parades and celebrations will be held in Leeds and Edinburgh later

:48:51. > :48:53.to mark the success of local athletes at the 2016 Olympic Games.

:48:54. > :48:56.So how does it feel to be celebrated, and what do our

:48:57. > :48:59.athletes hope to inspire in their local communities?

:49:00. > :49:04.Let's talk now to Kadeena Cox, who got three medals including

:49:05. > :49:12.a gold in two different disciplines at the Paralympics,

:49:13. > :49:19.And Jack Laugher, who got a silver and a gold medal for diving,

:49:20. > :49:22.Paul Bennett, who rowed his way to gold as part of the men's eight,

:49:23. > :49:24.and Heather Stanning, who won gold with partner

:49:25. > :49:36.Jack, that silver and that goal that I can see around your neck, what is

:49:37. > :49:43.it like when you put that on in the morning? A lot of jingling. They

:49:44. > :49:47.clang together a lot. But it feels fantastic. I had such a successful

:49:48. > :49:53.Games and I am so proud of what I have achieved. It is fantastic to

:49:54. > :49:58.wear these around my neck. Paul, have you come down yet or not? It is

:49:59. > :50:02.difficult to come down when you keep meeting these incredible people who

:50:03. > :50:07.want to tell you how amazing it was and how proud they are of watching

:50:08. > :50:13.you win. So you keep getting bored back up to the same level because

:50:14. > :50:19.everybody is really enthusiastic. I come down and then I get pulled back

:50:20. > :50:23.up to Rio after the final. Heather, are you looking forward to the

:50:24. > :50:29.parade today? Really looking forward to it. It is fairly mild up here in

:50:30. > :50:36.Edinburgh, which is good. Were you at Helen's wedding? I was. It was an

:50:37. > :50:41.amazing weekend. I saw a few pictures in a magazine, and it

:50:42. > :50:48.looked incredibly romantic. It was. It was amazing. They are such a

:50:49. > :50:50.happy couple. It was so perfect for them. The weather was fantastic,

:50:51. > :50:55.which was lucky because it was outside. It was a beautiful day for

:50:56. > :51:00.them and for the guests. Kadeena, I hope you can hear us. Three medals

:51:01. > :51:03.in two different disciplines, the first person to do this since 1984.

:51:04. > :51:23.How did you do it? I just went out there with my coaches and

:51:24. > :51:28.performed to the best of my ability. And why is the parade significant

:51:29. > :51:32.for you to take part? It is so amazing to have a parade in my home

:51:33. > :51:37.city and to go out and see all the people. It is going to be a great

:51:38. > :51:42.feeling, and just to give a bit back and showcase our medals. I remember

:51:43. > :51:48.after 2012, my own kids were really inspired to take up gymnastics and

:51:49. > :51:52.all sorts of other things. Jack, are you aware of your responsibility in

:51:53. > :51:58.inspiring young kids to get involved? Of course. We have had

:51:59. > :52:03.such a surge of people participating in diving now. Our learn to dive

:52:04. > :52:07.sessions are completely packed out across the country. That is what we

:52:08. > :52:12.need in diving. We need people joining from an early age to

:52:13. > :52:15.hopefully breed talent in the future. Obviously, I am now a role

:52:16. > :52:25.model, and that is great. I hope to inspire a lot of people. Paul, do

:52:26. > :52:30.you accept the responsibility of being a role model? Does that sit

:52:31. > :52:34.comfortably with you? It is a bit difficult to get into. You are just

:52:35. > :52:42.like anyone else, and then you win some medals and everyone says you

:52:43. > :52:46.are expected to be a role model. It takes time to get into it, but it is

:52:47. > :52:50.easy to fulfil that role when you meet young people who are keen to

:52:51. > :52:53.hear what being an athlete is like. You find it in yourself to say

:52:54. > :53:02.things that are inspirational and get kids to keep going. You are

:53:03. > :53:07.tried to expose people to sports that they might be engaged by. That

:53:08. > :53:12.is something I like to do. You learn how to do it along the way and you

:53:13. > :53:17.meet some incredible kits. Those two things help each other along -- some

:53:18. > :53:23.incredible kids. Before you know it, you are fulfilling the role.

:53:24. > :53:28.Heather, that is interesting. You have to learn to take on this

:53:29. > :53:34.responsibility. Do you agree? Absolutely. It is something I had to

:53:35. > :53:37.learn quickly after London. Both Helen and myself were prepared to

:53:38. > :53:40.win our rowing race. What we were not prepared for was all the bits

:53:41. > :53:45.they came afterwards. Of course, it is amazing to be a part of it, but

:53:46. > :53:48.it does take some getting used to. For so long, you have been focused

:53:49. > :53:52.on yourself as an individual and you have forgotten what an impact you

:53:53. > :53:56.have on people around you. But it is really nice to go into schools and

:53:57. > :54:01.speak to kids. I spent yesterday morning in schools around my

:54:02. > :54:06.parents' in Lossiemouth. It was fantastic to talk to the kids. The

:54:07. > :54:09.kids were all so energised by watching the Olympics and

:54:10. > :54:14.Paralympics. They all want to give something ago. And they come up with

:54:15. > :54:19.the most interesting questions. Like? Well, I was there with both my

:54:20. > :54:26.medals and one girl goes, I won my medals this summer for doing this

:54:27. > :54:31.event in my summer club. I was like, that is amazing! She was so proud of

:54:32. > :54:35.her medal. She thought mine were good, but hers were better. Kadeena,

:54:36. > :54:40.some of our audience know that you had a stroke two years ago. You were

:54:41. > :54:46.then diagnosed with MS. I wonder what you hope people will take away

:54:47. > :54:50.from your performances in Rio? Yeah, I went out there with the intention

:54:51. > :54:54.of showing that you can still push the boundaries even with setbacks.

:54:55. > :54:59.So I was prepared to be a role model and show people that they can do

:55:00. > :55:06.amazing things even with things like what I have got, the MS and the

:55:07. > :55:10.strokes. I wanted to make people feel empowered. And who are the

:55:11. > :55:13.people around you who are part of your team, whether it is

:55:14. > :55:17.professionals or relatives? We spoke to your sister during the

:55:18. > :55:21.Paralympics, for example. They are important to you when you are

:55:22. > :55:27.focusing on a goal like the Paralympics. Yeah, I am from a big

:55:28. > :55:32.family. I am one of seven children. My mum, dad, brothers and sisters

:55:33. > :55:36.have all been amazing support. Then I have two head coaches and my

:55:37. > :55:43.training group are around me. They have all been amazing support. Well,

:55:44. > :55:57.I hope all of you enjoy the parade is today. Many thanks to all of you.

:55:58. > :56:03.I have a mixture of comments on Sam Allardyce from you, and also on

:56:04. > :56:05.gaming. An e-mail from Paul says, the uniform reaction from the rest

:56:06. > :56:11.of the media to the Daily Telegraph's Allardyce Sting and this

:56:12. > :56:17.-- virtually nil criticism from the usual anti-press suspects. It is a

:56:18. > :56:19.legitimate triumph from the Telegraph and undercover journalism,

:56:20. > :56:25.I would argue. That is in response to the fact that Sam Allardyce said

:56:26. > :56:29.on this occasion, entrapment has won. John says, I am not shocked by

:56:30. > :56:36.this. Corruption is rife from Fifa downwards. An e-mail from Cath -

:56:37. > :56:40.when are we going to view these newspaper setups as unacceptable

:56:41. > :56:43.gutter journalism? Looking at the footage, Allardyce appeared to be

:56:44. > :56:47.being plied with alcohol to encourage him to open up and the

:56:48. > :56:51.conversation was deliberately steered in the desired direction. I

:56:52. > :56:56.feel sorry for Big Sam, in some ways the victim of his own actions but in

:56:57. > :56:59.many ways the victim of an underregulated press. On gaming,

:57:00. > :57:03.Luke says misogyny in gaming should be tackled by more than just the

:57:04. > :57:07.content hosting websites. Sexism should be tackled early in schools.

:57:08. > :57:12.It is hard to miss the rise in sexism in all areas of society and

:57:13. > :57:16.it should be urgently tackled. Angela says, I challenge all bad

:57:17. > :57:19.behaviour when I am on Xbox one. Trevor says young men abusing women

:57:20. > :57:25.are keyboard warriors who would not dare to talk to women in real life

:57:26. > :57:27.and are just inadequate. Thank you for those.

:57:28. > :57:30.Coming up, we will find out how an American couple's wedding

:57:31. > :57:41.photo-shoot in Central Park was disrupted - by Tom Hanks.

:57:42. > :57:48.Let's get the latest weather update with Matt Taylor.

:57:49. > :57:55.Not a bad start to the day for many. Warmest day of the week for many,

:57:56. > :58:02.but we will follow that with windy weather tonight, particularly across

:58:03. > :58:07.Scotland. At the moment, most are dry. In Northern Ireland, we have

:58:08. > :58:10.seen the cloud increase. It is all linked into a weather system which

:58:11. > :58:12.has been rushing up from the mid-Atlantic. Warm winds on the

:58:13. > :58:21.southern flank of it, but strengthening winds around it. Those

:58:22. > :58:25.strong winds push into night. The skies will brighten in Northern

:58:26. > :58:30.Ireland this afternoon, but wet for a time in Scotland. Brightest,

:58:31. > :58:34.sunniest and warmest in the south and east. We finish in the afternoon

:58:35. > :58:40.with the wettest weather across the far north of Scotland. The rain here

:58:41. > :58:44.will persist all day long. The wind will start to strengthen across the

:58:45. > :58:48.Hebrides. The Alpha Scotland could brighten up from Lanarkshire towards

:58:49. > :58:53.the borders -- the south of Scotland. It may stay grey and

:58:54. > :58:57.drizzly through parts of north-west England and West and Wales, but

:58:58. > :59:01.around Cheshire and the north-east of Wales, here is where the cloud

:59:02. > :59:05.will break. Grey, misty and damp across the hills around Devon and

:59:06. > :59:12.Cornwall. Further east, we have sunny spells for the afternoon.

:59:13. > :59:16.Breezy through tonight and increasingly windy by the end of the

:59:17. > :59:20.night. Severe gales in Scotland, with frequent showers. A weather

:59:21. > :59:25.front which stars the evening in Scotland and Northern Ireland will

:59:26. > :59:30.push south through Wales and England. To the south and east of

:59:31. > :59:34.that, we have a warm start. To the north and west, a particularly wild

:59:35. > :59:39.start. In Scotland, the morning rush hour could be difficult. We could

:59:40. > :59:45.see guests of 60 mph, which could cause disruptions to ferry services

:59:46. > :59:49.and bridges. The winds in the north will ease a bit through the day, but

:59:50. > :59:55.they will strengthen across Northern Ireland, southern Scotland and

:59:56. > :59:58.northern England. Tomorrow will start on the wet side, but brighten

:59:59. > :00:07.up later. Much of England and Wales will see sunshine in the afternoon,

:00:08. > :00:13.but it will feel fresher than today. Sunshine and showers again for

:00:14. > :00:17.Friday. Some in the east will stay dry, but feeling cooler. And it is a

:00:18. > :00:19.cooler trend for the weekend. Showers most frequent on Saturday.

:00:20. > :00:24.Sunday is not looking bad. I'm Victoria Derbyshire,

:00:25. > :00:28.welcome to the programme if you've just joined us,

:00:29. > :00:31.coming up before 11am: A "silly thing to do and I'm

:00:32. > :00:33.paying the consequences". We start with the breaking news

:00:34. > :00:36.of comments from Sam Allardyce, now ex-England football manager

:07:22. > :07:28.Cheers, thank you very much, Hugh. Welcome to the programme.

:07:29. > :07:29.Sam Allardyce has accused The Daily Telegraph of entrapment. Let's

:07:30. > :07:43.listen to what he had to say. I think that on reflection it was a

:07:44. > :07:47.silly thing to do, but just to let everybody know that I sort of helped

:07:48. > :07:51.out what was somebody I had known for 30 years and unfortunately it

:07:52. > :07:58.was an error in judgement on my behalf and I paid the consequences.

:07:59. > :08:04.Entrapment has won on this occasion and I have to accept that. The

:08:05. > :08:16.agreement has done very amicably with the FA. I apologise to those

:08:17. > :08:21.and all concerned that it was an unfortunate position I put myself. I

:08:22. > :08:25.have a confidentiality agreement. I can't answer anymore questions just

:08:26. > :08:27.now. I'm going to go away and reflect.

:08:28. > :08:32.REPORTER: Can you tell what yous you're going to do now? I'm off

:08:33. > :08:37.abroad to chill out and reflect. I want to wish all the England lads,

:08:38. > :08:39.Gareth and the lads all the very best.

:08:40. > :08:44.REPORTER: Was that your last job in football? Who knows.

:08:45. > :08:47."I think on reflection it was a silly thing to do,

:08:48. > :08:50.just to let everyone know i sort of helped out somebody I've known

:08:53. > :08:57.Entrapment has won on this occasion and I have to accept that.

:08:58. > :09:00.The agreement was done very amicably with The FA and I apologise to those

:09:01. > :09:03.and all concerned in the unfortunate position I've put myself in."

:09:04. > :09:05.I'm off abroad to chill out and reflect.

:09:06. > :09:09.Id like to wish all the England lads, Gareth and all the staff

:09:10. > :09:18.Joining me now from Wembley is our correspondent, Amy Cole.

:09:19. > :09:25.Draw together the reaction to the fact that Sam Allardyce has left and

:09:26. > :09:30.this job that he coveted for so many years in humiliating circumstances?

:09:31. > :09:34.Well, absolutely. I mean the reaction has been one of surprise

:09:35. > :09:39.and also, I think, disgust really that this has happened. Two

:09:40. > :09:44.high-profile men who were involved with the FA, they were both former

:09:45. > :09:47.chairmen, Greg Dyke and David Bernstein have both commented and

:09:48. > :09:52.they have been really scathing in their view of Sam Allardyce's

:09:53. > :09:56.behaviour. Let me just read you what they have said. Greg Dyke said, "I

:09:57. > :10:00.think the FA did exactly the right thing and they did it quickly which

:10:01. > :10:04.always helps. You don't want this hanging around. He said of Sam

:10:05. > :10:10.Allardyce, his judgement is clearly flawed. I mean, what was he doing?

:10:11. > :10:14.Hawking himself around for another ?400,000 job when he has just taken

:10:15. > :10:19.the job for over ?3 million plus bonuses on top of that? I mean he

:10:20. > :10:25.was just being greedy, wasn't he? I think a lack of judgement is a

:10:26. > :10:29.polite way of putting it. David Bernstein said, "The hubris of it

:10:30. > :10:33.all is extraordinary. This is a man earning ?3 million a year, I wonder

:10:34. > :10:40.whether there is a pay off or not. I hope not? Because I don't think 50

:10:41. > :10:43.or 60 days work merits a pay off. There have been reports this

:10:44. > :10:47.morning, some speculation that Sam Allardyce may well be paid ?1

:10:48. > :10:51.million as a pay off, but certainly these two men don't believe that

:10:52. > :10:56.that should happen. In terms of appointing a permanent

:10:57. > :11:03.manager for England, it will take a while, I suppose? Well, yes, it is,

:11:04. > :11:09.indeed, Victoria. England's next game here at Wembley will be against

:11:10. > :11:13.Malta in a week's time in. Short-term the England under 21 boss

:11:14. > :11:16.Gareth Southgate will take over as the England manager for the next

:11:17. > :11:21.four games. They are all in October and November. However, helpfully,

:11:22. > :11:24.for the FA, the next game after that won't be until March. So they'll

:11:25. > :11:28.have a bit of time to think about who to replace as a permanent

:11:29. > :11:31.manager. Now at the time that they employed Sam Allardyce, the FA was

:11:32. > :11:37.pleased to say they found an English manager and they may well be looking

:11:38. > :11:40.to see who else could fit the frame. Other English possible contenders,

:11:41. > :11:45.you know, we are hearing this morning there maybe Eddie Howe of

:11:46. > :11:49.Bournemouth, Alan Pardew at Crystal Palace and former Hull City manager,

:11:50. > :11:54.Steve Bruce. They are among the possible candidates, but the FA may

:11:55. > :12:00.look at a foreign manager, but they're going to face a big more

:12:01. > :12:06.problems before that because it seems that The Daily Telegraph which

:12:07. > :12:11.launched this sting and has been printing details of the corruption

:12:12. > :12:15.has today said that there are about eight current and former Premier

:12:16. > :12:21.League managers plus two Championship managers who have taken

:12:22. > :12:27.cash incentives or so-called bungs to arrange transfers. None of those

:12:28. > :12:31.people are named in the paper, but later this week, the paper says it

:12:32. > :12:36.will name an assistant manager at a leading club who has been filmed

:12:37. > :12:42.taking ?5,000 as a cash payment. That's a real headache for the FA.

:12:43. > :12:46.The paper says it had been carrying out this undercover inquiry for the

:12:47. > :12:49.past ten months and passed on the transcripts to the FA and to the

:12:50. > :12:59.police. There may well be criminal investigations to come.

:13:00. > :13:03.Thank you very much, Amy. Ralph, why was Sam Allardyce so

:13:04. > :13:08.naive? Another viewer says, "What a greedy man, wasn't ?3 million a year

:13:09. > :13:13.enough?" Gareth Southgate turned it down last time, why would he want it

:13:14. > :13:16.now? Sam Allardyce won't be the last manager of England whose career

:13:17. > :13:21.ended in humiliation. Glenn Hoddle lost his job in early

:13:22. > :13:24.1999 after he suggested people with disabilities might be paying

:13:25. > :13:27.for mistakes in a previous life. Hoddle apologised for his remarks,

:13:28. > :13:30.saying he had made a serious Five months before the 2006

:13:31. > :13:35.World Cup, Sven Goran Eriksson got into big trouble after spilling

:13:36. > :13:42.a bit too much to the infamous "fake sheikh", a reporter

:13:43. > :13:44.from the News of the World, who pretended to be a wealthy Arab

:13:45. > :13:47.businessmen who might be interested During the undercover sting

:13:48. > :13:50.operation, Eriksson offered to "tap up" David Beckham,

:13:51. > :13:52.and also claimed Michael Owen He made various remarks about other

:13:53. > :13:56.players, and was forced to hold a meeting to apologise

:13:57. > :13:59.to his England squad. Just before the 2010 World Cup,

:14:00. > :14:01.Fabio Capello was criticised after a controversial player ratings

:14:02. > :14:04.system called the Capello Index Added to that, Capello's

:14:05. > :14:11.relationship with the FA broke down in 2012 when he didn't agree

:14:12. > :14:16.with their decision to strip John Terry of the England captaincy

:14:17. > :14:20.over allegations of racial abuse. Then there was the Wally

:14:21. > :14:22.with the Brolly. Steve McClaren, who as England

:14:23. > :14:25.manager failed to qualify for It is a sad day today,

:14:26. > :14:31.to be relieved of my post. Then there was Roy Hodgson,

:14:32. > :14:33.who it was hoped would coax And yet England were beaten by one

:14:34. > :14:40.of the world's smallest nations, One of England's most embarrassing

:14:41. > :14:43.exit from an international COMMENTATOR: And England's

:14:44. > :14:50.embarrassment is Iceland's ecstasy! One particularly bad game has caused

:14:51. > :14:54.a lot of damage, to me personally, to the team, and even

:14:55. > :14:56.to the team going forward, because now they've got

:14:57. > :14:58.a major bridge to repair. And finally there is Sam Allardyce,

:14:59. > :15:13.who lasted just 67 days in the job. He's a former Liverpool

:15:14. > :15:16.and England defender who was capped three

:15:17. > :15:18.times by England. And Ian Marshal, who played

:15:19. > :15:23.under Sam Allardyce at Bolton Wanderers

:15:24. > :15:39.between 2001-2002. He will be devastated. This was the

:15:40. > :15:44.job he wanted. A real bad bit of judgment has cost him. I am bitterly

:15:45. > :15:48.disappointed, because I thought he would do a good job and I was hoping

:15:49. > :15:53.he would have a good go at it and bring success to the England team.

:15:54. > :16:00.What do you think he was thinking of? The only thing I can think of is

:16:01. > :16:04.greed. That word has been thrown around for the last few days. He is

:16:05. > :16:09.a wealthy man, it is not a question of him needing the money. But the

:16:10. > :16:19.green eyed monster seems to have got hold of him. John Scales, how do you

:16:20. > :16:25.see this? Like everybody says, everyone is shocked by the greed,

:16:26. > :16:35.the naivety, every aspect of this story. I think the FA were in a

:16:36. > :16:39.simple position to make the decision that his position was untenable. And

:16:40. > :16:46.we find ourselves with Gareth Southgate in charge. It is

:16:47. > :16:50.incredibly disappointing. You talked about the previous episodes with

:16:51. > :16:55.England managers, the scrutiny they are under and the expectations they

:16:56. > :17:00.are under, which is right with the salaries they earn and the position

:17:01. > :17:05.they hold. Is it endemic in football? To a degree, yes. That is

:17:06. > :17:09.in the spotlight again, when we have just kicked off another fantastic

:17:10. > :17:12.season of football. So many people in the country wanted to look at the

:17:13. > :17:18.positive side of things. Alan Shearer says football in England is

:17:19. > :17:23.a laughing stock around the world. Do you agree? I don't agree with

:17:24. > :17:32.that. It is bad, but it was only a few years ago that the Italian

:17:33. > :17:38.league was riddled with Mac -- match fixing and everything. It is not an

:17:39. > :17:42.illegal thing he has done. It is not right and he had to go, but I would

:17:43. > :17:50.not say it is a laughing stock. Worse things have gone on in

:17:51. > :17:56.football. John scales, Sam Allardyce describes it as entrapment. He said

:17:57. > :18:01.entrapment has won on this occasion. Do you agree? Well, that is the way

:18:02. > :18:05.the Daily Telegraph got their story. They have set up a situation where

:18:06. > :18:10.they put Sam Allardyce in a position where his naivety has got the better

:18:11. > :18:14.of him and his greed got the better of him and he has been loose with

:18:15. > :18:19.his talk. That has happened in the past and will happen again in the

:18:20. > :18:23.future. That is Sam's responsibility to understand the privileged

:18:24. > :18:31.position he is in comes with situations like that. It is

:18:32. > :18:36.incredible that so short into his reign as England manager, he has

:18:37. > :18:40.made comments that have brought the FA into disrepute and put himself in

:18:41. > :18:47.a position where he has lost the job he's so coveted and was so pleased

:18:48. > :18:54.to get. He was a positive force for English football, but as everybody

:18:55. > :18:59.has said, he had to go. Ian, have you heard of managers taking cash

:19:00. > :19:06.backhanders in order to smooth the transfer of players from one club to

:19:07. > :19:11.another? Not personally, but I do believe it has gone on. What are you

:19:12. > :19:15.basing that belief on if you have never heard about it? When I say

:19:16. > :19:26.never heard about it, I have never experienced it myself. But I see

:19:27. > :19:34.situations where things happen, and you question how it has happened. I

:19:35. > :19:38.am asking because the Telegraph says there are eight current or former

:19:39. > :19:45.managers... It is great to say there are eight people, but they should

:19:46. > :19:51.name them. Then it can be out in the open. There are only 20 managers in

:19:52. > :19:56.the Premier League, so that is nearly half of them. Well, it is

:19:57. > :20:01.current and former Premier League managers. It is a good point about

:20:02. > :20:04.why they haven't named them. Some have denied any wrongdoing. They are

:20:05. > :20:15.going to name an assistant manager who took ?5,000 to smooth transfer.

:20:16. > :20:19.That is interesting, but they have obviously got no solid proof on the

:20:20. > :20:31.managers, or they would name them if they have a cast-iron case. I would

:20:32. > :20:37.like them to defend themselves or to be proven guilty. John, have you

:20:38. > :20:46.heard of managers taking bungs? I think we have all heard it. It is

:20:47. > :20:53.based on rumour and chitter chatter, and that comes from good sources,

:20:54. > :20:58.the football network. It is not something I have experienced

:20:59. > :21:03.first-hand, but when you have built it up over a career, I started

:21:04. > :21:10.football 30 years ago, you hear so much about it that you believe it

:21:11. > :21:16.has to be true. And you know there is so much money in the game, so

:21:17. > :21:25.many agents involved, so much ability to take part of the money

:21:26. > :21:29.that is involved in football out of the game in a way that is not clear,

:21:30. > :21:33.there are no checks and balances to keep the game in order, and people

:21:34. > :21:40.manipulate the system, like they do in every walk of life. It is the

:21:41. > :21:45.scale of the dishonesty that surprises many, but it is difficult

:21:46. > :21:51.to prove. With the eight managers that have been mentioned, in

:21:52. > :21:54.investigative journalism, you have to be absolutely watertight. I have

:21:55. > :21:58.worked in television programmes where you can go so far, but the

:21:59. > :22:09.lawyers will then step in and say you cannot name them because we

:22:10. > :22:18.haven't got enough proof. I think it is just the nature of the game and

:22:19. > :22:22.the stories that everyone has heard, you pretty much understand that it

:22:23. > :22:27.goes on at every level in the game. Lord Stevens did and inquiry not

:22:28. > :22:35.long ago, looking at corruption in the English game and issue of bungs,

:22:36. > :22:40.and he didn't come up with much. We have had a statement from the sports

:22:41. > :22:43.minister, Tracy Crouch. She says "The integrity of sport is

:22:44. > :22:47.paramount. We have been clear that we expect the highest standards of

:22:48. > :22:51.governance and transparency from sports governing bodies in the UK

:22:52. > :22:54.and around the world. In this context, the recent allegations

:22:55. > :22:58.regarding English football are very concerning and we will be concerning

:22:59. > :23:01.discussing the matter with the football authorities. All the

:23:02. > :23:07.evidence must be investigated and we stand ready to assist in any way".

:23:08. > :23:11.As it got anything to do with the government, John? Well, the

:23:12. > :23:22.government are in a difficult position with the way the FA have

:23:23. > :23:26.their organisation and the government has always said it would

:23:27. > :23:30.intervene at some stage and has never happened. Possibly, at this

:23:31. > :23:34.point, the government will feel it has to intervene properly and get

:23:35. > :23:42.better order into the game. There will certainly be speaking to Martin

:23:43. > :23:45.Glenn and Greg Clark of the FA and discussing it, but that has to

:23:46. > :23:53.involve all stakeholders, not just the FA. The FA are often so derided

:23:54. > :23:57.and castigated for their position within the game, but they are in a

:23:58. > :24:01.difficult position. They are the custodians of the game, but there

:24:02. > :24:05.are so many other stakeholders, the Premier League, the PFA, kick racism

:24:06. > :24:11.out of, the clubs, the players. Every stakeholder has to have an

:24:12. > :24:14.interest in finding a solution. If that takes the government to step in

:24:15. > :24:21.and do what they can, all the better. We have seen it with the IOC

:24:22. > :24:26.and Fifa and the IAAF. So many organisations have issues of

:24:27. > :24:30.corruption. And unfortunately, we see it across the world in every

:24:31. > :24:35.situation, whether it is a defence contractor getting backhanders

:24:36. > :24:41.across the world or whether it is in football or Westminster. It is sad

:24:42. > :24:46.to see, but that is the nature of the world we live in. So the

:24:47. > :24:52.stakeholders have to collectively make up the sport better and give

:24:53. > :25:00.the faith back to the supporters who want to see the game played in the

:25:01. > :25:06.best way. Thank you very much. John Scales, former England and Liverpool

:25:07. > :25:09.defender. And Ian Marsh, who played under Sam Allardyce. Anthony says

:25:10. > :25:15.the Coker of bungs has been with us since the year dot. When will the FA

:25:16. > :25:18.tackle it head on instead of accepting it? Dave says Sam

:25:19. > :25:21.Allardyce's comments were telling. He apologised for being caught

:25:22. > :25:27.rather than for the deed itself. John says, look on the bright side.

:25:28. > :25:31.How many ex-England managers can say they left the job with a 100%

:25:32. > :25:41.winning record? Somehow, I don't think that will be any consolation.

:25:42. > :25:45.Next, the investigation of the shooting down of the MH17 plane

:25:46. > :25:47.crash in Ukraine will publish its findings today.

:25:48. > :25:50.The father of a young man killed in the MH17 plane crash in Ukraine

:25:51. > :25:53.says he has no faith that a criminal investigation will find

:25:54. > :25:55.out who is responsible for his son's death.

:25:56. > :25:57.Liam Sweeney died in July 2014, when the Malaysian Airlines flight

:25:58. > :26:00.was shot down and all 298 passengers were killed.

:26:01. > :26:02.Liam was heading to see his beloved Newcastle United play

:26:03. > :26:05.Tom Burridge, the BBC's man in the Ukraine capital Kiev,

:26:06. > :26:08.went to visit a military base to find out more about the BUK

:26:09. > :26:25.missile system which is suspected of downing the passenger jet.

:26:26. > :26:55.The Buk missile system is designed to shoot down planes,

:26:56. > :26:57.missiles or drones travelling at speeds of up to 830

:26:58. > :27:26.Using the main radar and radar on the missile launchers, the

:27:27. > :27:32.Buk can track targets and establish their altitude and speed, and tell

:27:33. > :27:41.But when it comes to differentiating between civilian aircraft and enemy

:27:42. > :27:44.military planes, well, that comes down to the expertise and experience

:27:45. > :28:34.Let's talk now to Liam's dad, Barry Sweeney, who's in Newcastle.

:28:35. > :28:44.What answers would you like from this criminal investigation? The

:28:45. > :28:48.main answer I want is why? Do you think the criminal investigation

:28:49. > :28:55.will be able to give you that information? I don't think happen.

:28:56. > :28:58.Why is that the key question for you? It is something that shouldn't

:28:59. > :29:04.have happened, but whenever there is an accident, you usually know why it

:29:05. > :29:09.happened, but on this occasion, nobody knows. 298 people were on

:29:10. > :29:14.board MH17 who were either working or going to enjoy themselves, and

:29:15. > :29:23.that should not have happened. You may never find out why. Are you

:29:24. > :29:28.prepared for that? Very much so. To find out why would be a bonus. I

:29:29. > :29:34.would like to think before I go to my grave, I will find out. We are

:29:35. > :29:40.told we are expecting to find out today where this missile was fired

:29:41. > :29:53.from. That will give you a bit more information. It will. In the report

:29:54. > :29:58.last year in The Hague, it was revealed to be a surface to air

:29:59. > :30:03.missile, a Buk missile. The Russians have denied that, but I think it is

:30:04. > :30:09.probably fact. Western countries say Russian backed rebels did it. Russia

:30:10. > :30:13.has blamed Ukrainian forces. Well, in Britain you are always innocent

:30:14. > :30:18.until proven guilty. I like to think from the crash report, it was

:30:19. > :30:24.probably Russian separatists. Tell our audience about Liam. Liam grew

:30:25. > :30:30.up a happy-go-lucky lad. He probably didn't get into football until late.

:30:31. > :30:34.Once he started watching Newcastle, he went from a probably happy lad to

:30:35. > :30:44.a not so happy lad, but he loved life. He loved football. How is the

:30:45. > :30:49.family? We are doing OK. It is another part of the jigsaw, another

:30:50. > :30:55.day. I don't think the jigsaw will ever be finalised. But I try to keep

:30:56. > :31:01.positive because of Liam. He was a fun-loving lad. He enjoyed his life.

:31:02. > :31:03.Unfortunately, somebody took that away. Barry, thank you very much for

:31:04. > :31:14.talking to us. Liam died on that plane and that

:31:15. > :31:17.report is due out at about lunch time. We will bring that to you on

:31:39. > :31:42.time they will find out today if their legal challenge has been

:31:53. > :31:54.Sam Allardyce has broken his silence about what he's

:31:55. > :31:56.calling the "error of judgement" that cost him his job

:31:57. > :31:59.as England manager after just one game in charge.

:32:00. > :32:01.Speaking in the last half hour, Allardyce apologised for offering

:32:02. > :32:04.advice on how to avoid rules on player transfers,

:32:05. > :32:07.that was secretly recorded, but he accused the newspaper

:32:08. > :32:11.undercover investigation of "entrapment".

:32:12. > :32:18.On reflection it was a silly thing to do, but just to let everybody

:32:19. > :32:21.know that I sort of helped out what was somebody I had known for 30

:32:22. > :32:24.years and unfortunately it was an error in judgement on my behalf and

:32:25. > :32:36.I paid the consequences. The Prime Minister, President Obama

:35:41. > :35:46.Thank you very much, Hugh. The veteran Israeli politician

:35:47. > :35:48.Shimon Peres has died From the declaration

:35:49. > :35:51.of the State of Israel, Shimon Peres played an important

:35:52. > :35:54.role in many governments, eventually serving twice as prime

:35:55. > :35:56.minister and once as president. He won a Nobel Peace Prize in 1994

:35:57. > :36:15.for his role in negotiating the Oslo Let's talk to a professor who helped

:36:16. > :36:24.Shimon Peres negotiate the Oslo peace accord which won him the noble

:36:25. > :36:28.peace award. We are joined by somebody who used

:36:29. > :36:32.to work with Shimon Peres. How would you sum rise Shimon Peres Shimon

:36:33. > :36:41.Peres' contribution to Israeli politics? Massive. Awesome, not just

:36:42. > :36:47.the fact that he did that for 70 years, but if you look at the

:36:48. > :36:51.quality of some of his contributions, in a very diverse way

:36:52. > :36:59.from the nuclear project in the 1950s and 1960s to the peace process

:37:00. > :37:05.of the 1990s and to rehabilitating the institution of the presidency

:37:06. > :37:09.when he became president. So in every decade in a different way, a

:37:10. > :37:13.man who went through many incarnations will always know how to

:37:14. > :37:17.reinvent himself and present different ideas and a different face

:37:18. > :37:22.to Israel and the world and in the last decade of his life, mostly as

:37:23. > :37:30.the most venerated Israeli on the global scene.

:37:31. > :37:33.Remind our British audience about the Oslo peace accord and whether

:37:34. > :37:45.you think it would be possible without him? It was signed by Oslo

:37:46. > :37:50.and the PLO. Deadly enemies for decades before that. It was based on

:37:51. > :37:55.a pedestrian kated on a mutual recognition between the State of

:37:56. > :38:01.Israel and Palestinian nationalism and it was a road map for going

:38:02. > :38:08.towards a term nant solution. That did not happen, but the mutual

:38:09. > :38:11.recognition remains valid and the police authority is still --

:38:12. > :38:29.Palestinian Authority is still in place. In order to make it happen, a

:38:30. > :38:40.partnership was needed betwe Shimon Peres' ministers. Mitchell, tell us

:38:41. > :38:43.what he was like as a man. I mean I worked with him when he was

:38:44. > :38:47.president as an international media advisor for a period of time. The

:38:48. > :38:52.guy was just dedicated to Israel's security. And really to Israel's

:38:53. > :38:57.future. Meaning at the age of 80 he kept innovating himself. It is not

:38:58. > :39:00.just as the professor said, he reinvented himself all the time, he

:39:01. > :39:04.was always innovating for himself and for Israel. He was interested in

:39:05. > :39:08.the latest technologies and his concern was not even for Israel

:39:09. > :39:13.today. He was going to finish his presidency at the age of 88 or 89 or

:39:14. > :39:18.90, he was worried about what Israel was going to look like in 10 or 20,

:39:19. > :39:21.30 years time, and what kind of technology would be there because

:39:22. > :39:25.that gives us the ability to look at the world differently and with

:39:26. > :39:29.technology the borders are not as relevant so what risks could Israel

:39:30. > :39:33.take with technology and where does Israel have to be and I give the

:39:34. > :39:38.example of the electric car which was in Israel which did not succeed,

:39:39. > :39:42.but which he was very involved in because he saw that Israel cannot be

:39:43. > :39:46.dependant on foreign oil and the technology in a small country like

:39:47. > :39:49.Israel could bring this electric car project in. So he put a lot of

:39:50. > :39:54.weight behind it and the brain science. Very few people know he

:39:55. > :39:57.spent his last years in the presidency promoting Israel as a

:39:58. > :40:00.centre of brain science and brain research in the world. And he was

:40:01. > :40:04.able to help secure Government funds for it and get some of the

:40:05. > :40:07.universities together and get some of the private industry together and

:40:08. > :40:11.I think we will start to see the fruits of that in maybe a few years,

:40:12. > :40:13.five years or ten years from now like many of the projects he did,

:40:14. > :40:17.they are really for the long-term and not for the short-term. Is

:40:18. > :40:21.unusual in Y any politician actually. He spent seven decades in

:40:22. > :40:29.Israeli politics, what will you remember him for? I mean, I think, I

:40:30. > :40:35.think that, you know, what I would remember him most for, there is a

:40:36. > :40:39.famous Sam 29 that King David wrote in Jerusalem and it says that God

:40:40. > :40:44.gives the people of Israel security, but he blesses them with peace and

:40:45. > :40:55.that sort is the story of shim shim. He spent the first number -- Shimon

:40:56. > :41:00.Peres Shimon Peres. Some of the things that the professor mentioned,

:41:01. > :41:04.the nuclear facility, the aid from France, the aid from the United

:41:05. > :41:10.States and really getting Israel as a military force to protect its

:41:11. > :41:14.citizens and then Seend to turn into a pivot and work on the peace part

:41:15. > :41:20.of the process, meaning now that Israel is secure, and Israel has the

:41:21. > :41:24.ability to take risks for peace and to really solidify the future of

:41:25. > :41:29.Israel for again ragses to come, now we can go and try and invest in

:41:30. > :41:33.peace. I think that's, you have those two components with him. First

:41:34. > :41:38.his security, ensuring Israel's security and second, is trying to

:41:39. > :41:40.ensure Israel's future and security through peace and through regional

:41:41. > :41:48.peace and peace with the Palestinians. Professor what will

:41:49. > :41:53.you remember him for? For the daily phone call when I was his ambassador

:41:54. > :41:57.in Washington and there was a project he pursued, the Middle East

:41:58. > :42:03.regional development, it would be the daily phone call, "How have you

:42:04. > :42:09.moved on?" There was the creative side, the inventive, the need to

:42:10. > :42:13.think of something new and the daily grind, the persistence and the drive

:42:14. > :42:16.and the combination of the two made him effective. Zl thank you very

:42:17. > :42:21.much, gentlemen. Thank you for coming on the programme.

:42:22. > :42:24.If you've ever struggled your way around a marathon, then you'll know

:42:25. > :42:27.what an achievement it is to cross the finish line.

:42:28. > :42:30.So imagine what it might feel like to run not one, not two,

:42:31. > :42:44.Jon Kay has been to meet a man who has just done that.

:42:45. > :42:48.My legs still hurt every single day, I'm not going to lie to you.

:42:49. > :42:50.Some mornings, I just don't want to get out of bed.

:42:51. > :42:53.In the last year, Ben Smith has run 10,000 miles.

:42:54. > :43:17.I've not had one blister or a missing toenail.

:43:18. > :43:26.Wherever he is, he is often joined by local running clubs.

:43:27. > :43:28.So we pitched up too for a couple of miles

:43:29. > :43:32.What kind of effect has this had on your body?

:43:33. > :43:36.I cannot imagine doing 401 marathons.

:43:37. > :43:38.Yeah, it's had quite an effect on my body.

:43:39. > :43:45.My body fat has dropped from 15.5% to just under 10%, so 9.5%.

:43:46. > :43:53.I feel a lot fitter, leaner, a lot healthier.

:43:54. > :44:04.Broken bones in his back meant Ben had to stop in Aberdeen.

:44:05. > :44:08.But remarkably, just ten days later, he was running marathons again

:44:09. > :44:11.and he has made up all the time and miles that he lost.

:44:12. > :44:15.My injury probably was my lowest point.

:44:16. > :44:19.I have found through this that I am quite mentally strong,

:44:20. > :44:22.so it is quite easy for me to pick myself up out of a hole.

:44:23. > :44:28.When he was younger, Ben tried to take his own life.

:44:29. > :44:30.I started to get bullied when I was ten years old.

:44:31. > :44:33.During this challenge, he stopped at 100 schools,

:44:34. > :44:38.raising awareness, also raising a target of ?250,000

:44:39. > :44:45.His message has motivated 9,000 people of all abilities

:44:46. > :44:49.and backgrounds to join him at different stages.

:44:50. > :44:52.Give me some words to sum up this man.

:44:53. > :45:08.It's commitment, dedication and the willpower to do it day

:45:09. > :45:11.in and day out and for the great charities he is doing it for.

:45:12. > :45:13.He's really showing dedication above and beyond anything

:45:14. > :45:21.What do you think of the 401?

:45:22. > :45:26.So nobody wants to be with me today.

:45:27. > :45:33.But as the months have passed, the crowds have grown.

:45:34. > :45:37.Ben has been described as a real-life Forrest Gump.

:45:38. > :45:39.Are you going to miss it when you stop?

:45:40. > :45:41.Are you going to lie there in bed and think, oh,

:45:42. > :45:44.I really want to run a marathon again today?

:45:45. > :45:49.I will probably shut myself in a dark room and rock.

:45:50. > :45:51.But even when he completes his challenge, Ben

:45:52. > :45:55.A three-month cool-down of half marathons and then shorter runs

:45:56. > :46:09.Before that, though, seven days, seven marathons to go.

:46:10. > :46:13.Junior doctors will find out today if their legal challenge

:46:14. > :46:15.against the imposition of a new contract in England

:46:16. > :46:19.The group, Justice for Health, which was behind the High Court

:46:20. > :46:21.action, says the terms of the deal are unsafe and decision-making

:46:22. > :46:23.by the Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, is "irrational".

:46:24. > :46:28.A Department of Health spokesperson said they could not comment

:46:29. > :46:34.until the judgement was announced later.

:46:35. > :46:45.Dr Sandy Robertson, who works in emergency medicine.

:46:46. > :46:47.Dr Julia Patterson works in psychiatry.

:46:48. > :46:49.And Dr Moosa Qureshi, he's been a junior doctor for eight

:46:50. > :47:02.If you win and the contracts cannot be imposed, then what? If we win, as

:47:03. > :47:06.we said during the case, each trust is able to choose its own contract

:47:07. > :47:11.to employ us with. So I would hope that between the trusts and asked

:47:12. > :47:17.junior doctors to the BMA, we would come to a much fairer and safer

:47:18. > :47:22.contract for all of us. Do you have confidence that it would be better?

:47:23. > :47:25.Yes, because the trusts do not have the political impetus that the

:47:26. > :47:33.Secretary of State does to try and reduce costs entirely. A lot of

:47:34. > :47:38.trusts are in deficit, as you know. They absolutely have a priority of

:47:39. > :47:42.trying to save money. They do, but the contract is not just about the

:47:43. > :47:49.money, it is about working practices. People of a four week

:47:50. > :47:52.period will be going on and off nights. That really plays with your

:47:53. > :48:01.brain and makes you make unsafe decisions. Hopefully, a new contract

:48:02. > :48:05.that we have decided with the BMA and trusts would be safer and

:48:06. > :48:11.fairer. Julia, what if you don't get the result you are hoping for

:48:12. > :48:14.regardless of the outcome today in court, we feel it has been a

:48:15. > :48:19.positive step that Justice For Health have got this to court. It

:48:20. > :48:30.has thrown the spotlight on Jeremy Hunt and his behaviour over the last

:48:31. > :48:34.12 months. But if you are ruled out... Even if the court verdict is

:48:35. > :48:42.that have failed the case, hunt himself has said he never planned to

:48:43. > :48:45.impose the deal on us, which shows that we have won. All that we want

:48:46. > :48:52.is to avoid the imposition of this unsafe contract. So if we fail in

:48:53. > :48:58.this court case and Hunt wins the court case, we would not see that as

:48:59. > :49:05.a failure. Do you, because the contracts will be rolled out from

:49:06. > :49:10.next week. As Julia said, in a way, either way we will win, because the

:49:11. > :49:14.law is on our side. The Secretary of State clearly does not have the

:49:15. > :49:21.power to impose a contract on junior doctors, despite his numerous

:49:22. > :49:25.statements to the contrary. The only way he has managed to do this is by

:49:26. > :49:29.saying he is not imposing it, which is a step down for him. The question

:49:30. > :49:35.will be whether he can get somebody else to impose the contract on his

:49:36. > :49:39.behalf. Like the trusts. This has just come in from our health

:49:40. > :49:42.correspondent, who is at the court, waiting for the outcome. It seems

:49:43. > :49:47.unlikely, regardless of the result of the review today, that the

:49:48. > :49:50.imposition of the contract will be halted. The contract is due to start

:49:51. > :49:54.rolling out next week. If the judge finds against the government and is

:49:55. > :49:57.critical of the Health Secretary, it would seem unlikely that that will

:49:58. > :50:04.extend to ordering trusts not to introduce it. But it is technically

:50:05. > :50:10.possible. 150 doctors will start on it next week. Another 2000 will

:50:11. > :50:15.follow at the end of the year. Let me explain, because it's is

:50:16. > :50:19.confusing to everyone what this court case was about and what Jeremy

:50:20. > :50:22.Hunt said. He has been taken to court for three reasons. First is

:50:23. > :50:30.that people feel he has been misleading, to the press and within

:50:31. > :50:34.the Houses of Parliament. Secondly, people feel he is acting outside of

:50:35. > :50:38.his powers as Secretary of State by saying he will impose something.

:50:39. > :50:43.Thirdly, people say he has been acting irrationally. Those are the

:50:44. > :50:48.three points we have been trying to put to the court. When the court

:50:49. > :50:52.case occurred on the 19th and 20th of September, Hunt told everybody

:50:53. > :50:57.that he had never intended to impose a contract on junior doctors at all.

:50:58. > :51:02.Of course, that is a shocking revelation to come out in court. So

:51:03. > :51:06.whatever the court ruling is today, we see it as a win because Hunt has

:51:07. > :51:15.said he will not impose this contract honours. -- on us. Where

:51:16. > :51:18.are you on the fact that the BMA junior doctors committee has called

:51:19. > :51:27.off these five day planned strikes over the next few months? Lots of

:51:28. > :51:31.people have been upset about this. Are you? Chilly yes and no. I am due

:51:32. > :51:36.to have a baby next week and there was lots of stress over whether

:51:37. > :51:40.hospitals are safe or not. As a junior doctor, I think we need to

:51:41. > :51:48.fight this contract. It is in Toronto's -- it dis- incentivise is

:51:49. > :51:53.people working in A So if not a strike, what else can you do to

:51:54. > :52:00.protest about the imposition of these contracts? That is a good

:52:01. > :52:07.question. We are all supporting the BMA because they are our union. They

:52:08. > :52:12.are still considering alternative strategies. Obviously, industrial

:52:13. > :52:16.action was a key specially and we are awaiting transparency and some

:52:17. > :52:19.reasons why they have come to this decision to call off industrial

:52:20. > :52:26.action. Well, it is patient safety. We know why. Well, we have had

:52:27. > :52:29.multiple strikes over the last year and none of them have had a

:52:30. > :52:36.detrimental effect. Not for five days in a row. But why has

:52:37. > :52:40.industrial action been suspended altogether? Because you were losing

:52:41. > :52:45.public support, perhaps? I don't think that is accurate. Polls

:52:46. > :52:49.suggest that we have very high support. But if you compare polls

:52:50. > :52:52.before the five-day strike was called off compared to recently,

:52:53. > :53:01.there has been a reduction in support. We still had a majority of

:53:02. > :53:05.support. But it was going in the wrong direction. There was a lot of

:53:06. > :53:09.media worrying about patient safety. In A, I don't feel that patients

:53:10. > :53:13.would have been compromised by us going on strike. I think it would

:53:14. > :53:18.have got us to a fairer, better contract. But at the moment, we need

:53:19. > :53:23.to work with the BMA and get our views heard. They changed their

:53:24. > :53:27.industrial action because they have views from people saying they didn't

:53:28. > :53:30.want to go ahead with it. We need to work with them and get the trusts to

:53:31. > :53:36.get a better contract for all of us so we can have a safer and fairer

:53:37. > :53:40.NHS. We will see what happens. Thank you for coming in. More on Sam

:53:41. > :53:44.Allardyce, who this morning apologised for offering advice on

:53:45. > :53:49.how to avoid rules on player transfers, but was secretly recorded

:53:50. > :53:54.by reporters. He also accused the Daily Telegraph of entrapment.

:53:55. > :54:02.Obviously, I have got to do this before I go away. But I think that

:54:03. > :54:09.on reflection, it was a silly thing to do. Just to let everybody know, I

:54:10. > :54:13.sort of helped out somebody I had known for 30 years. Unfortunately,

:54:14. > :54:19.it was an error of judgment on my behalf and I paid the consequences.

:54:20. > :54:26.Entrapment has won on this occasion and I have to accept that. The

:54:27. > :54:35.agreement was done very amicably with the FA. I apologise to those

:54:36. > :54:40.and all concerned in the unfortunate situation I put myself in. I have a

:54:41. > :54:45.confidentiality agreement, lads. I took the time to talk to you on this

:54:46. > :54:50.matter. I can't answer any more questions. What are you doing now? I

:54:51. > :54:54.am off abroad, just to chill out and reflect. I would like to wish all

:54:55. > :55:00.the England lads, Gareth and their staff the very best. Was that your

:55:01. > :55:04.last job in football? Who knows? We will see.

:55:05. > :55:11.Let's talk to Julian Eccles, a former FA chief of communications

:55:12. > :55:18.who also used to work for Ofcom, the media regulator. Was it entrapment?

:55:19. > :55:24.I don't think it was. If you look at the code of conduct that the editors

:55:25. > :55:29.now have, they list 11 matters of public interest where certain

:55:30. > :55:34.activities like this are legitimate. I think this kind of activity by the

:55:35. > :55:38.Telegraph does fall within those boundaries, not just because it is

:55:39. > :55:43.of interest to the public, but there is a legitimate reason there, where

:55:44. > :55:48.there was concealment of agents undertaking malpractice, and it gave

:55:49. > :55:51.an insight into a significant public figure who was potentially

:55:52. > :55:56.undermining important rules in the game. But they didn't know that

:55:57. > :55:59.until they got it. As far as I understand it, having read what the

:56:00. > :56:02.Telegraph had written in the last few days, there was no evidence that

:56:03. > :56:05.Sam Allardyce was doing anything wrong, which is why some of our

:56:06. > :56:13.audience believe this was a fishing expedition. If Philip Hammond had

:56:14. > :56:17.stated that the tax rules were ridiculous and they were not a

:56:18. > :56:22.problem, he would be undermining the HMRC and we can all imagine the

:56:23. > :56:28.fallout that would happen from that. I wonder why Sam Allardyce thinks it

:56:29. > :56:32.is entrapment. He is understandably feeling very bruised by the whole

:56:33. > :56:38.affair. He is hurting and our sympathies go out to him, because he

:56:39. > :56:41.is Big Sam, the lovable rogue of the game of whom we had so much

:56:42. > :56:48.expectations ahead of qualification. He will feel very bitter about that.

:56:49. > :56:56.But as he said and the FA have said, he said some unwise things and it

:56:57. > :56:58.was poor judgment. What about the spotlight shining on the FA and the

:56:59. > :57:04.fact that they appointed him not long ago? It is a real shame for

:57:05. > :57:08.them. They have a new incoming chairman, Greg Clark, and they have

:57:09. > :57:12.to start the whole process again in finding a new manager for World Cup

:57:13. > :57:17.qualification. We have been there before with the FA. And I think we

:57:18. > :57:20.will be there again at some point. We need a root and branch

:57:21. > :57:25.restructuring and modernisation of the organisation of football

:57:26. > :57:29.governance in this country. It has to learn from some of the standards

:57:30. > :57:35.brought in from business and politics after the Telegraph's

:57:36. > :57:39.revelations about MPs' expenses so that from top to bottom, there is a

:57:40. > :57:42.culture of conducting business fairly and openly so that we have

:57:43. > :57:48.trust in the game and those who govern it. Thank you for your time.

:57:49. > :57:52.David says, the press may have laid a trap, but Sam Allardyce did not

:57:53. > :57:55.have to walk into it. Shelley on Facebook says great feature on

:57:56. > :57:59.sexism in gaming. Shame you did not touch on where this culture has come

:58:00. > :58:04.from. I believe the game developers could help by making their games for

:58:05. > :58:08.everyone and not just targeting the young male audience. If games

:58:09. > :58:11.themselves were less misogynistic, perhaps we would see fewer gamers

:58:12. > :58:18.thinking of this sort of behaviour is OK. Thank you for getting in

:58:19. > :58:19.touch. BBC Newsroom Live is next. Have a good day. Back tomorrow at

:58:20. > :58:29.nine.
