:04:48. > :04:49.there was a criminal cover-up says victims were failed
:04:50. > :04:54.All political parties have let down those who've suffered as a result

:05:13. > :05:21.Whether that full truth emerges after this long campaign,
:05:22. > :05:24.will depend on what sort of enquiry is convened and its powers.
:05:25. > :05:30.And our Health Editor Huw Pym is with me now.
:05:31. > :05:36.This is decades later, why has this enquiry being announced now and what
:05:37. > :05:40.can it achieve? Government sources are making clear new evidence has
:05:41. > :05:44.emerged in the last few weeks, including some published in the
:05:45. > :05:48.newspaper and the material Andy Burnham was about to publish. That
:05:49. > :05:55.is the reason. But there is the political aspect to this. On Sunday,
:05:56. > :05:59.the leaders of the political party opposition parties called for this
:06:00. > :06:02.enquiry. There was a debate scheduled in the House of Commons
:06:03. > :06:06.called by a Labour MP to debate the issue. There was a possibility all
:06:07. > :06:11.the opposition parties might have voted on it. We have new
:06:12. > :06:14.Parliamentary arithmetic. Just before the debate began, Downing
:06:15. > :06:19.Street sources indicated the government was minded to set up this
:06:20. > :06:23.enquiry. It came as a surprise to the Scottish Government, it will be
:06:24. > :06:31.a UK wide exercise. They said they had no warning. What ever the reason
:06:32. > :06:33.is, what ever the timings, victims and their families are pleased it is
:06:34. > :06:35.happening but they will be content unless it does get to the truth.
:06:36. > :06:38.Thank you. President Trump's eldest son has
:06:39. > :06:40.published a chain of e-mails about his meeting last year
:06:41. > :06:43.with a Russian lawyer who's been Donald Trump Junior is told
:06:44. > :06:47.that the Russian government wants to offer official documents that
:06:48. > :06:51.would "incriminate" Hillary Clinton and be "very useful" to his father's
:06:52. > :06:57.presidential campaign Our Chief Correspondent Gavin Hewitt
:06:58. > :07:17.is in Washington for us tonight. Tell us more about these
:07:18. > :07:21.revelations? For five months, there has been a shadow hanging over the
:07:22. > :07:25.trump Administration as to whether there was collusion between the
:07:26. > :07:32.Trumper election campaign and the Russians. Today, that story got a
:07:33. > :07:35.whole lot more serious. Last June, there was a meeting between Donald
:07:36. > :07:41.Trump Jr and a Russian lawyer. Today, we got to read the e-mails
:07:42. > :07:45.leading up to that meeting. It is worth quoting, the offer was to
:07:46. > :07:47.provide the Trump campaign with some official documents that would
:07:48. > :07:55.incriminate Hillary Clinton, which would be very useful to your father.
:07:56. > :07:58.That is Donald Trump. It goes on, this is obviously very high level
:07:59. > :08:04.and sensitive information and it is part of Russia and its government's
:08:05. > :08:07.support for Mr Trump. There is an insight into what Donald Trump Jr
:08:08. > :08:15.felt about this offer to dish the dirt on Hillary Clinton. He says, if
:08:16. > :08:22.it is what you say, I love it. How damaging is all this, Gavin? Of
:08:23. > :08:27.course, it is damaging. Particularly that Donald Trump Jr was prepared to
:08:28. > :08:33.go to this meeting having received these e-mails beforehand. It also
:08:34. > :08:37.establishes the Russian interest in influencing the American election.
:08:38. > :08:43.But I think there are some questions as to the credibility of this
:08:44. > :08:47.impresario. What where the levels of his contacts in Moscow? And there is
:08:48. > :08:52.an open question as to what Donald Trump himself knew. But after today,
:08:53. > :08:57.if you read this text, I think it is devastating and what they will do is
:08:58. > :09:02.deep in this investigation into what is really now a very serious matter
:09:03. > :09:04.for the Trump Administration. Gavin Hewitt, thank you.
:09:05. > :09:07.Workers on short term contracts in the UK should qualify for sick
:09:08. > :09:09.pay and holiday pay and their employers should make
:09:10. > :09:13.Those are some of the recommendations in a major report,
:09:14. > :09:15.commissioned by the government which is calling for
:09:16. > :09:19.changes to the running of the so-called "gig economy".
:09:20. > :09:22.Theresa May has welcomed the report, saying it makes a major
:09:23. > :09:27.contribution to the debate about work practices in Britain.
:09:28. > :09:29.But she says she doesn't want to stop the clock.
:09:30. > :09:34.Here's our economics editor Kamal Ahmed.
:09:35. > :09:45.It was the Prime Minister who made the points, the vast majority of us
:09:46. > :09:48.spend more than half of our waking hours working. Whether
:09:49. > :09:53.self-employed, single job or multiple, the world of work has
:09:54. > :09:57.changed. Appearing alongside Theresa May, Matthew Taylor said it was time
:09:58. > :10:01.for a reset. Yes, the country has been very good at creating work,
:10:02. > :10:07.employment levels are at a record, but he said it was time to focus on
:10:08. > :10:11.quality. National performance on the quantity of work is strong. The
:10:12. > :10:15.quantity alone is not enough for a thriving economy and a fair society.
:10:16. > :10:18.We believe now is the time to complement that commitment in
:10:19. > :10:28.creating jobs with the goal of creating better jobs. This man likes
:10:29. > :10:33.his job, flexible, no guaranteed hours and few benefits for Uber. I
:10:34. > :10:38.love to drive my car, I love people. I like to chat to interesting people
:10:39. > :10:45.and the money and the ratio with my time, it is decent. For Felicity, it
:10:46. > :10:49.is a different story from the world of 0-hour contracts. It is insecure
:10:50. > :10:53.because a lot of the problems I had, sometimes if there was a lot of
:10:54. > :11:01.work, I would work too much I get really tired. What does this new
:11:02. > :11:08.world of work look like? One point, the majority of us, 63%, are in
:11:09. > :11:11.full-time work. About 26% are in part-time work and 15% are
:11:12. > :11:21.self-employed. There are many new ways of working and the enquiry
:11:22. > :11:24.focuses on two. The gig economy, delivery food drivers, minicab
:11:25. > :11:29.drivers, there are 1.3 million people in that part of the economy.
:11:30. > :11:35.And people with no guaranteed hours of work, on 0-hours contracts. There
:11:36. > :11:40.are about 9005000 people on those. Then, there is what the report calls
:11:41. > :11:44.the hidden economy. That is the cash in hand payments to your window
:11:45. > :11:48.cleaner that avoid tax and official records. The report says that is
:11:49. > :11:57.worth ?6.2 billion a year and should be brought to an end. Mr Taylor said
:11:58. > :11:59.in his review, much of this new world of work is good work, but for
:12:00. > :12:03.those being exploited, some solutions. Sick and holiday pay
:12:04. > :12:07.benefits, a right to enhanced minimum wage because the work does
:12:08. > :12:13.not guarantee hours. Then there is talk of better enforcement of the
:12:14. > :12:15.present laws and higher taxes for those gig firms. Paying National
:12:16. > :12:20.Insurance for the first time, which many of them avoid at the moment.
:12:21. > :12:27.The question is, will any of this happen? Given the Conservatives lack
:12:28. > :12:32.one important thing, a majority. You cannot give any guarantees that you
:12:33. > :12:37.will be able to pass a report like this and the recommendations it has
:12:38. > :12:43.had through Parliament? I would hope, as I said in my speech, people
:12:44. > :12:46.will see across the political world, will see the importance of
:12:47. > :12:51.addressing this as an issue. It isn't just a here and now. It is
:12:52. > :12:55.about the future of our economy. There seems little chance of
:12:56. > :12:59.consensus. Labour said the report was a huge missed opportunity,
:13:00. > :13:07.particularly when it came to not banning 0-hours contracts. We have
:13:08. > :13:10.to get rid of 0-hours contracts. We have to get rid of the gig economy
:13:11. > :13:15.and the bogus self-employment which is a wonderful way for a minority of
:13:16. > :13:22.employers to avoid paying National Insurance contributions. Member this
:13:23. > :13:26.man, Sir Philip Green? He published a report on government efficiency.
:13:27. > :13:32.Sir Andrew Deal not, a review on social care, published with a
:13:33. > :13:36.fanfare of publicity and then gently gathered dust on a shelf. The fear
:13:37. > :13:40.for this report is, it could suffer a similar fate.
:13:41. > :13:42.A 24-year-old British man has been killed fighting
:13:43. > :13:44.against the so-called Islamic State in Syria.
:13:45. > :13:48.He's said to have died five days ago during the campaign to capture

:14:13. > :14:15.Those trapped are mostly young or elderly and are thought
:14:16. > :14:17.to have become separated from their families.
:14:18. > :14:19.From Mosul, our Defence Correspondent Jonathan

:14:32. > :14:36.They called him Marino after the Italian doctor
:14:37. > :14:42.The Iraqi army says there are many more like him.
:14:43. > :14:48.We actually receive a lot of orphans.
:14:49. > :14:53.I don't know what's going on out there, I think ISIS or the females
:14:54. > :14:56.after their husbands, ISIS fighters, they die,
:14:57. > :15:02.they run away empty-handed so they leave their babies behind.
:15:03. > :15:04.Iraq's Prime Minister may have declared victory,
:15:05. > :15:07.but there's still pockets of resistance and streams
:15:08. > :15:14.of civilians trying to make their way to safety.
:15:15. > :15:23.They often collect the children of others along the way.
:15:24. > :15:26.There are dozens of women and children here waiting to be
:15:27. > :15:29.taken to safety and they're not just war weary, they are weak
:15:30. > :15:40.If you listen, the only sound you can hear is babies crying.
:15:41. > :15:43.At west Mosul's main hospital they're just about coping.

:18:03. > :18:06.It just wouldn't work, it had gone too far.
:18:07. > :18:10.The family asked us to tell Ian's story because they believe it shows
:18:11. > :18:13.how the system still fails people with learning disabilities.
:18:14. > :18:20.As he grew up, Ian's behaviour became challenging.
:18:21. > :18:23.When in pain, he'd throw things and bang his head, scarring himself.
:18:24. > :18:26.In 2007, he was sent to the first of three secure units.
:18:27. > :18:33.The problem being with epilepsy the secure units were

:18:48. > :18:53.Yeah, it was ongoing. It was from one to the other.
:18:54. > :18:57.This weighty family file tells the story of Ian's life

:25:30. > :25:34.Sad, but true. Adversity is an opportunity for

:26:26. > :26:35.evening, forget the rain, we are going to finish under the roof in
:26:36. > :26:39.Centre Court. Halep and Konta is into the third kept at 1-1, it
:26:40. > :26:40.couldn't be tighter. We don't need to ask what the weather is like in
:26:41. > :26:48.London. Yes the rain has set in for the rest
:26:49. > :26:51.of the day. It's not just across the Wimbledon area, we have seen rain
:26:52. > :26:57.powering down across South Wales where this picture is from. The
:26:58. > :27:00.radar shows the area of rain being pushed eastwards staidily through
:27:01. > :27:04.the afternoon to the south-east with bright colours on the radar picture
:27:05. > :27:07.showing where the heavier rain is, heading in to south-east England.
:27:08. > :27:12.It's not been raining everywhere today. We have had sunny spells
:27:13. > :27:18.across north-west Scotland. And shower clouds there in the distance.
:27:19. > :27:23.Tonight the rain band having reached parts of Yorkshire is going to sink
:27:24. > :27:25.South Eastwards through the night. It will become stranded across
:27:26. > :27:29.south-east England. Further north and west the weather becomes dryer
:27:30. > :27:33.with clearing skies, quite a chilly night into rural parts of Scotland
:27:34. > :27:37.with temperatures getting down to single figures. Tomorrow this rain
:27:38. > :27:41.band is going to clear out of the way smartly. Then this area of high
:27:42. > :27:45.pressure building in across the British Isles, that means early
:27:46. > :27:48.morning rain clears from south-east England quickly during Wednesday
:27:49. > :27:53.morning. Then the sunshine will come out and we will all see more sun
:27:54. > :28:01.behind than today. Cloud bubbling up and temperatures near average for
:28:02. > :28:06.the time of year. So at Wimbledon tomorrow what a
:28:07. > :28:08.different story. Sunny spells and with light winds it will feel
:28:09. > :28:12.pleasant in the sunshine. Thursday, more of the same weather on the way.
:28:13. > :28:17.A chilly start to the day in rural parts. Sunshine through the day. A
:28:18. > :28:20.few isolated showers are possible. The north-west of Scotland has the
:28:21. > :28:23.greatest risk of showers moving in and the breeze picking up here.
:28:24. > :28:28.Temperatures again reaching a high of about 23.
:28:29. > :28:36.Thank you. Our main story. The Government orders an inquiry into
:28:37. > :28:41.the contaminated blood scandal, more than 2,000 people died after being
:28:42. > :28:43.giving contaminated products. That's all from the BBC News at Six. From
