:02:08. > :02:11.writing, against the other team, in the Lords, where they are voting to
:02:12. > :02:16.try to force the Prime Minister to give a foul in law that Parliament
:02:17. > :02:21.will have the final say on the eventual deal on Brexit. -- vow. We
:02:22. > :02:26.are taking a more principled stand in the House of Commons. Theresa May
:02:27. > :02:30.said there would be a vote in both houses on the package she
:02:31. > :02:35.negotiated. That is meaningful. I don't think there should be any plan
:02:36. > :02:40.to try to overthrow Brexit. We must accept it. But they must accept the
:02:41. > :02:43.Parliamentary system. The Prime Minister has already promised the
:02:44. > :02:52.Commons and the Lords a say on the final terms of our exit from the
:02:53. > :02:55.European Union. So what is the fuss? Frankly, not all peers believe the
:02:56. > :02:58.promise. They want it in black and white, written into this bill. They
:02:59. > :03:04.want it to be a legal and binding promise. This bill will be further
:03:05. > :03:09.considered on report. But a majority of the Lords believed we should have
:03:10. > :03:12.voted to stay in the European Union. So there is a suspicion in
:03:13. > :03:15.government they are trying to cause trouble. Senior ministers are
:03:16. > :03:22.keeping an eye on them today, and their Lordships are in rare
:03:23. > :03:26.crotchety form. When it comes to our rights, Parliament is the place you
:03:27. > :03:31.come to. The reason is simple, we don't trust the Government on this
:03:32. > :03:35.matter. This country's future should rest with Parliament, and not with
:03:36. > :03:41.ministers. But the government's supporters question the motive. Does
:03:42. > :03:48.he agree that this new clause, in effect, gives this house a statutory
:03:49. > :03:52.veto on the decision made by the Prime Minister, with the support of
:03:53. > :03:56.the other place, to implement the decision of the British people to
:03:57. > :03:59.leave the European Union? This house is absolutely full of people that
:04:00. > :04:06.still have not come to terms with the results of the referendum. This
:04:07. > :04:10.is a clever confection in order to reverse the results of the
:04:11. > :04:14.referendum. Despite their detractors, in and outside
:04:15. > :04:19.Parliament, the Lords, in their rather stately manner, will not let
:04:20. > :04:22.their objections be pushed away. The Lords are now, in the last few
:04:23. > :04:28.minutes of this debate, approaching what is it really crucial vote for
:04:29. > :04:33.the government. I have just seen David Davis scurrying to the House
:04:34. > :04:35.of Lords, maybe to keep an eye on them as they close things down. It
:04:36. > :04:39.is very likely the Government will have the embarrassment of being
:04:40. > :04:43.defeated again by the Lords on this Brexit bill. We are expecting quite
:04:44. > :04:49.a hefty majority, maybe as much as a gap of 100. It doesn't seem right
:04:50. > :04:52.now that Theresa May is ready to budge on the issue of giving a legal
:04:53. > :04:58.guarantee to Parliament on the final terms of the EU exit steel. It feels
:04:59. > :05:05.that, at this stage, she is more likely to test the will of the Tory
:05:06. > :05:08.rebel MPs, the handful of them. Are they really courageous enough on
:05:09. > :05:11.this issue to stand up to the Prime Minister? There is a lot at stake.
:05:12. > :05:18.It is vital for Theresa May to get this legislation through the House
:05:19. > :05:21.of Commons in the next week or so, to stick to her timetable of pushing
:05:22. > :05:23.the button on Brexit at the end of March.

:05:58. > :06:01.a signal to schools generally not to hope for more.
:06:02. > :06:10.We have protected the core schools budget, but, crucially,
:06:11. > :06:12.what we are announcing is half a billion pounds
:06:13. > :06:14.of investment in schools, 320 million of which
:06:15. > :06:17.That will create around 70,000 new school places.

:06:26. > :06:28.This is not a grammar school, but a sixth form that pushes budding
:06:29. > :06:34.We know that what we've done here for students who have this
:06:35. > :06:37.interest in mathematics and mathematical sciences has
:06:38. > :06:40.enabled transformation of those students.
:06:41. > :06:42.Different futures, better futures for them, and therefore better
:06:43. > :06:53.So, having more schools like that is exactly what we need.
:06:54. > :06:55.Education is all about creating a sense of opportunity,
:06:56. > :06:58.the hope that what your children learn will give them a better
:06:59. > :07:03.And that's what the Prime Minister is trying to tap into at a time when
:07:04. > :07:06.This is all about the politics now, and very little
:07:07. > :07:17.The ?320 million will pay for 110 new schools after 2020.
:07:18. > :07:22.That's on top of the 500 already promised before 2020.
:07:23. > :07:27.So, ?7 billion is already allocated for new places in this Parliament.
:07:28. > :07:30.What's new is that some could now be grammar schools.
:07:31. > :07:33.It's not a lot of extra money, and won't help with the financial
:07:34. > :07:37.pressures facing most schools in England.
:07:38. > :07:39.The Government spending plans don't begin to address the real
:07:40. > :07:44.We have buildings that are falling down, we've got a teacher

:08:35. > :08:36.When the police then pulled over the 4x4
:08:37. > :08:38.she was driving, they could tell there

:08:45. > :08:46.Officers say they found the man accused of holding
:08:47. > :08:52.At this point, we don't want to speculate, but it is fair
:08:53. > :08:58.A lot of the areas where she would have been would have
:08:59. > :09:00.been unknown to her, and she wouldn't have known anyone
:09:01. > :09:04.there, so it would have been difficult for her to make an escape,
:09:05. > :09:06.and if she had, then to try and link up with people.
:09:07. > :09:08.From the information we've been provided,

:10:08. > :10:11.The rules are meant to be simple - Facebook says it removes nudity
:10:12. > :10:18.But our investigation last year found paedophiles using secret
:10:19. > :10:23.groups to swap obscene images of children.
:10:24. > :10:25.We informed the police, and this man was sent
:10:26. > :10:31.Facebook told us it had improved its systems.
:10:32. > :10:35.So, a year on, we put that to the test.
:10:36. > :10:37.But we still found whole groups dedicated to sexualised images
:10:38. > :10:43.of children, where men posted obscene comments.
:10:44. > :10:46.In every single one of these images, there is a real child
:10:47. > :10:48.who is out there today - at school, probably -
:10:49. > :10:52.and they don't know that their image is being used in this way.
:10:53. > :10:54.We also found users discussing how to share more serious

:11:05. > :11:12.They didn't breach of Facebook's community standards.
:11:13. > :11:20.I find that content unacceptable, and this report, this investigation,

:11:31. > :11:34.I think the biggest challenge here is one of scale.

:12:07. > :12:12.This matter is now in the hands of the authorities.
:12:13. > :12:16.So, where does this leave concerned parents?
:12:17. > :12:19.It sends a very clear message that, actually, you can't trust Facebook's
:12:20. > :12:21.reporting mechanism, and I think parents get
