:02:41. > :02:46.arrivals were bussed into south London this afternoon. Among them
:02:47. > :02:51.was 13-year-old from Afghanistan. He was interviewed last week on the
:02:52. > :02:54.BBC, by the singer Lily Allen while he was in the Jungle. This morning
:02:55. > :03:00.as he prepared to leave he spoke about his hopes for his new life in
:03:01. > :03:06.the UK. I want to two school in London. To join my brothers to start
:03:07. > :03:10.a new life there. But not everyone is pleased to see
:03:11. > :03:14.all the refugees. Some are questioning whether they are all
:03:15. > :03:18.under 18. And whether they are eligible to come in under a scheme
:03:19. > :03:23.aimed at helping vulnerable children. So what screening
:03:24. > :03:27.procedures have they undergone? Firstly, there is an initial
:03:28. > :03:31.interview with French and British officials in Calais, and checks are
:03:32. > :03:34.carried out, once they arrive their finger prints are taken and more
:03:35. > :03:39.checks to see they haven't broken the law. Even if a refugee has lied
:03:40. > :03:43.about his age he can still try to claim asylum here. This is day three
:03:44. > :03:47.of a resettlement scheme which has taken a long way to plan and a short
:03:48. > :03:51.time to become controversial. Emotion is not a very good way of
:03:52. > :03:54.deciding policy. Sometimes we have to be hard headed, sit down and
:03:55. > :03:58.think what we are trying to achieve. If we want the help children that is
:03:59. > :04:01.great. I am in favour of that. I am not in favour of allowing people in
:04:02. > :04:06.their 20s to say I'm a child and come into the UK and make a mockery
:04:07. > :04:11.of our rules. The Jungle refugees have become the
:04:12. > :04:16.touch stone for what some see as the UK's belated response to the migrant
:04:17. > :04:20.crisis. Taking unaccompanied orphaned children, whether they are
:04:21. > :04:24.teenagers or younger, is the least we can do. Not the most we can do.
:04:25. > :04:28.So if a couple of 18-year-olds or 19-year-olds who have seen desperate
:04:29. > :04:32.things and seen those around them murdered in their communities in
:04:33. > :04:34.Syria, are given sanctuary in the United Kingdom, there is nothing
:04:35. > :04:39.criminal about that. I would be proud to help them. This boy came in
:04:40. > :04:46.on Monday to be reunited with his older brother. We are not showing
:04:47. > :04:53.his face because he is only 14. First, I had to get some documents
:04:54. > :04:56.to prove my brother was in the UK. I had two interviews in Calais, one
:04:57. > :05:01.with the French authorities, one with the British. Then when I
:05:02. > :05:06.arrived here on Monday, there was another check. Soon, the bulldozers
:05:07. > :05:10.will move into the Jungle, before they do, dozens more will pack up

:22:35. > :22:42.So tonight, in the final debate, Donald Trump, like never
:22:43. > :22:48.Does he gamble on a scorched earth policy in an attempt to drag
:22:49. > :22:54.Or does he try to look presidential, calm and measured, and put his chips
:22:55. > :23:00.Hi, my name is Maria, I'm a volunteer at the Nevada
:23:01. > :23:10.And this is where Hillary Clinton is better resourced
:23:11. > :23:14.I was calling to see if we still have your support
:23:15. > :23:21.More field offices, more staff, and in South Nevada alone,
:23:22. > :23:23.they've registered more than 150,000 more Democratic
:23:24. > :23:24.voters than the Trump campaign have Republicans.
:23:25. > :23:26.The next three weeks will yield more conversations
:23:27. > :23:29.with voters around the country, more knocking on doors,
:23:30. > :23:32.more phone calls, more volunteers getting out the vote.
:23:33. > :23:34.And really the excitement of the electorate,
:23:35. > :23:36.who are continuing to tune in more and more every day.
:23:37. > :23:40.This is one of Donald Trump's only offices in Nevada.
:23:41. > :23:45.His campaign team never returned our calls.
:23:46. > :23:47.But we caught up with his supporters downtown as they waited
:23:48. > :23:52.They may not have infrastructure, but they have a mass
:23:53. > :24:00.Every time I've gone to any type of rally,
:24:01. > :24:06.They're showing up because there is a round game.
:24:07. > :24:09.He is not getting a fair shake, and that's why I'm here.
:24:10. > :24:12.He is going to change our country, he is going to do really
:24:13. > :24:16.Moments after that, Donald Trump's convoy swept into the hotel.
:24:17. > :24:18.He needs a small miracle tonight to turn things round.
:24:19. > :24:20.But Nevada is full of people convinced their luck
:24:21. > :24:26.It's almost a year since the world looked on in horror
:24:27. > :24:31.In the aftermath, the words of one man seemed to capture
:24:32. > :24:41.His wife, Helene, died in the Bataclan theatre.
:24:42. > :24:44.His letter addressed to the attackers entitled
:24:45. > :24:47."You Will Not Have My Hate" was viewed by tens
:24:48. > :24:52.Our Europe correspondent Damian Grammaticas has been back
:24:53. > :24:58.On Friday night you stole away the life of an exceptional being.
:24:59. > :25:00.The love of my life, the mother of my son.
:25:01. > :25:05.I do not know who you are and I don't want to know.
:25:06. > :25:12.Today, Antoine Leiris remains defiant, dignified,
:25:13. > :25:21.For me it's the only way to not fall in craziness.
:25:22. > :25:40.Yes, sometimes it's difficult, sometimes hate comes and knocks
:25:41. > :25:45.on my door and says, "Hey, I'm there, and simple,
:25:46. > :25:48.on my door and says, "Hey, I'm there, I'm simple,
:25:49. > :25:53.You can go with me, it will be easier for you."
:25:54. > :25:57.But I just let her out of our house and yes, I think it was
:25:58. > :26:06.How he dealt with the loss of his wife Helene at the Bataclan.
:26:07. > :26:09.When you close a dead person's eyes, you give them back a little
:26:10. > :26:15.She looks like the woman I watch wake up each morning.
:26:16. > :26:19.I want to lie next to her languorous body, warm her up, tell her she's
:26:20. > :26:23.It was like the walls of my room when I was alone were
:26:24. > :26:33.And I was like suffocating, and it was like...
:26:34. > :26:41.So, writing has been Antoine's escape,
:26:42. > :26:45.a way to keep alive his connection with his wife.
:26:46. > :26:48.He buried Helene here in Montmartre, and while he bears no hatred
:26:49. > :26:50.towards her killers, there is one thing Antoine has
:26:51. > :27:06.Because it's a connection to your wife?
:27:07. > :27:08.Because it's a testimony, like, even a physical
:27:09. > :27:13.You felt it inside you, very strongly.
:27:14. > :27:27.It's the testimony of how I loved Helene.
:27:28. > :27:37.Let's have a look at the weather. This was the scene earlier on on the
:27:38. > :27:42.north coast of Norfolk. The strong winds and the showers continuing at
:27:43. > :27:47.the moment in Norfolk and pushing towards Suffolk. Quite a blustery
:27:48. > :27:58.night in eastern England. The further west you are, clearer skies.
:27:59. > :28:01.There could be a touch of frost around first thing in the morning. A
:28:02. > :28:10.few mist and fog patches in the north and west. There will be some
:28:11. > :28:25.showers down across eastern England but not as many as today. The vast
:28:26. > :28:28.majority will stay dry. The winds in the east will be a bit lighter than
:28:29. > :28:36.today. Thursday night into Friday, increased cloud for Northern Ireland
:28:37. > :28:39.and the west of Scotland. A chilly start for the bulk of England and
:28:40. > :28:42.Wales on Friday. Much more cloud for Northern Ireland, and for the
:28:43. > :28:50.Highlands and Islands, occasional rain. Into the weekend, high
:28:51. > :28:55.pressure across Scandinavia, low pressure towards the south-west.
:28:56. > :28:59.That means easterly winds will be set to pick up across the UK this
:29:00. > :29:03.weekend, which will bring chilly conditions across the northern half
:29:04. > :29:05.of the country especially. This weekend, roughly speaking, strong
:29:06. > :29:10.easterly winds.
