our task, ourtask, is to build britain, build a britain together, build a britain for that security together — and we can! thank you, conference! applause and cheering jeremy corbyn ending his fourth conference speech as leader of the labour party. there will now nod doubt be a long standing ovation. there were several through the speech and the labour leader was decidedly more comfortable than he‘s beenin decidedly more comfortable than he‘s been in recent years, it was a confident speech. he ended it saying that the party was united where the tories are divided. they will unite and they are ready to govern as labour was in previous governments after the second world war. he had an offerfor the prime minister. he said as it stood now

in the world where is britain involved militarily they would probably say afghanistan and they might say iraq and as i say in the book didn't we leave iraq anyway and of course you know there's still huge military bases there and a huge military presence in countries that were all part of the empire and certainly from my studies the british base and it's one of the one nine hundred centuries realize the overextended military it was like vietnam for america and they realized that we cannot force the empire troops around the world but we have to basically create a commonwealth economics and governmental linkages under the queen ultimately ask the queen. value systems things like this so what is it that the military is doing in countries mentioning and she lands on the national what is it the british actually she sometimes sometimes it can be fairly benign i live for a few weeks in billy's several years ago which is a british protectorate i mean billy's is a poor country but it's not i don't think that britain is doing anything kind of cruel or evil there as part of its relationship but

applause our task, our task is to build britain, build a britain together, build a britain for that security together, and we can! thank you, conference! cheering and applause they loved it — classic conference corbyn. his belief that it's not fair and a bigger state can fix it. this man looked like a prime minister in waiting, a people's prime minister. no—one was arguing for alternatives for austerity until three years ago, when jeremy corbyn got elected. now there is an alternative, lots of people have got hope. it shows clarity and it shows confidence. do you think your dad's changed in the time he's done the job? much smoother — he's grown into it. i think we're seeing a new political centre. divisions linger in labour, especially over brexit, yet this transformed party is now moving in one direction, to be the country's next leader. his task — to make the radicals seem reasonable outside the hall. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, liverpool. our economics editor kamal ahmed is here. is the radical doable? that is the question. a lot of litres of parties, their ideas can sound bold an

it will hurt us as much as everyone in britain. no, but there is fear that a jacob rees—mogg government might go in that direction, so in that sense throwing a lifeline to may would make real politics, because it is the least worst. the practicalities are that, i think the european union and the individual states have left things to barnier with the assumption that, by about now, things would be in a very political, classical european union way, just fixed or fudged. there are some indications that that is happening, and i think some sort of deal is coming, but it is not just the trade disruption, it is the thing which will be on german minds and on french minds in terms of the stability of the eurozone, the potential for disruption because london runs the eurozone's debt markets. it is a global giant, so disrupting that, as the bank of england has pointed out, is not a terribly good idea. and also the security and intelligence situation is such that britain is, for better or worse, the leading security and intelligence power in

so who will get a welcome to britain after brexit? everyone expected more migrants after the eu expanded in 2004, with ten new countries. but it wasn't just a trickle. numbers increased and then increased again. till that increase reached 189,000 in 2016, the year of the vote to leave. in these parts, foreign labour has always come in and been welcomed. italians and poles after the war. from the commonwealth in later decades. the face of britain has changed completely. nothing much changes immediately on brexit day. migrants already part of the british picture can stay, whatever happens. though they will have to register. free movement goes on during a brexit transition if there is a brexit deal. and there could be a visa system, like the one from non—eu workers, for somejobs. and those numbers have already gone up, much higher than those coming from europe. thanks very much. take a look round peterborough and lots of places. plenty of businesses run by migrants, many more which rely on them. then there's agriculture, construction,

and we need britain onside. we can't let britain drift away. and i perceived some slight change of mood that, you know, it might be tempting to let britain drift away but it is not practical and we need britain and we need a deal. we need to help britain and save face and just this week, barnier was trying to be very practical about this. you know, the irish question. the irish stew, to add another cliche. let's go into details. just explain that. a frictionless trade agreement. if you don't want a hard border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland, you need perhaps the irish sea. of course, it's not acceptable but it actually would mean probably less controls because the flood of goods between the uk and northern ireland is actually quite minimal. so you could have ports outside of ireland, you could have on—board checks with technology. 0r visiting customs officials europe. that is what barnier has been using on this week, trying to be very practical. so that we can perhaps get to a deal because a no deal would be bad for ever

president putin shows a tendency in russia to humiliate britain even more, and to make britain a laughing stock by coming up with such an unbelievable story, that i don't think even president putin himself could have taken seriously. he puts it out anyway, because he thinks britain is there for the asking, if you want to have a good laugh at their expense, this is one way of doing it. i don't think he could reasonably believe that anyone in the world would believe such a cock and bull story. it is unbelievable, so why does he put it up? it is as i said, to make britain a laughing stock. i do not see any rhyme or reason other than putin having a laugh at our expense. there's so much for russian cathedral enthusiasts to see in britain. i was astonished that they were put off by the slush, coming from the russian military, you would've thought snow would not traditionally have been a problem. but i think that is a fair point, and actually post brexit, all of the travails europe is going through, that is the conversation we need to have with ourselves about how do we organise nato cooperation

britain will become? britain will. the new britain coming out of brexit will be. on michel barnier, rejoice. there will be agreement. michel barnier under pressure from all the governments in the year that are pro—eu. the ports in holland and belgium and france are lobbying to have the deal because there they do not want chaos. there are the exporters, like the german manufacturers who are very interested in the uk market, to keep it. michel barnier himself hopes to replace presidentjuncker because president macron wants the danish commissioner because she is pro—european, a woman, young, she's very good. he wants to come out of history as the man who solved brexit. so rejoice, rejoice rejoice. i don't think so. by they way, i do not work for the independent. i work for the i newspaper. forgive me. marc, i love your song. i have been reading some of the commentaries since all of this joy and markets and there are quite a lot of serious voices saying he did not mean in the sense that it was taken that it will all be exactly what we want. the irish question rema

secret wars about britain's role in the age of brecht's that trump and russia watching the hot zone johnstone sat down with matthew offered in london to learn more. is a suit. and quite rightly the british power british empire decreased markedly both due to the first world war and by certainly by the end of the second world war and it was a shadow of its former self by nine hundred fifty six the serious crisis showed that britain could no longer be a great power on the world stage and the united states had taken its place in that regard very very clearly but nevertheless if we look at the nature of british power now and its continued reach particularly through the work of my colleague tim coles who i'm kind of representing really today britain's role is still really significant it's still a member of the g seven it's still a member of the un security. number of the un security council it still as well in terms of the nefarious activity is still one of the world's largest arms dealers for example but then in addition to that part of what tim coles work has discovered is that british

so britain only got a small mention. he wants the uk and the eu to be close friends, but he poured cold water on theresa may's trade plans. we also ask the british to understand that someone who leaves the union cannot be in the same privileged position as a member state. if you leave the union, you, of course, are no longer part of our single market. and certainly not only in parts of it. the prime minister accentuated the positive in the house of commons a short time later. i want to say to our closest allies in europe, you will never, also never, be an ordinary third party for us. back in strasbourg, jean—claude juncker stuck to his preferred theme, making the eu more ambitious on the global stage, meaning a trade deal with africa and making the single currency, the euro, a rival to the dollar. do you want the eu to be a superpower? i don't know what that really means. i want the eu to become a major player in the global scene. superpower, i don't like that expression. we have to be super but not a superpower. to ma

our task is to build britain, build a britain together, build a britain for that security together, and we can. jeremy corbyn again warns that labour will vote against the government's current brexit plan, if it doesn't meet his party's criteria. as it stands, labour will vote against the chequers plan or whatever is left of it, and oppose leaving the eu with no deal. and it is inconceivable that we should crash out of europe with no deal — it would be a national disaster. we'll have the latest from liverpool, and will ask whether labour's figures add up. the other main stories on bbc news at 5... president trump tells the united nations that america will never allow iran to acquire a nuclear bomb. an unreserved apology from the government at the inquiry into the contaminated blood scandal which killed more than 2,500 people. i say unreservedly that we are sorry. we are sorry that this should be so, that this happened when it should not have done. relatives of people killed in the 1974 birmingham pub bombings criticise a court ruling that the suspects should not be named at fresh inqu

and the relationship between britain and the relationship between britain and the european union is still so uncertain. and the power of the bank of england is very much wrapped up in what type of relationship britain has with the european union, a deep and close relationship where the rules would be shared and there would be oversight from the eu over the bank of england, or a more distant relationship which might have economic effects for the british economy. until you can make it clear to candidates what kind of relationship that would be, it could be difficult to hire. to be clear, no deal has yet been done. but i am told that mark carney is amenable to this approach. the extension would be relatively short and it would probably be welcomed by the financial markets because frankly, at the moment, continuity of a change in this era of uncertainty is what the financial markets are looking for. kamal ahmed, thank you. our top story this lunchtime... former foreign secretary boris johnson launches a savage attack on the prime minister‘s brexit strategy, saying britain will get "di

will post—brexit britain be left behind in the race to reach new scientific frontiers? graham turnock, welcome to hardtalk. a pleasure to be here. thank you, stephen. you are the boss of the uk space agency. your institution is at the cutting edge of science and technology in the uk. it is significantly interwoven with collaboration, partnerships, right across the european union. how damaging is brexit going to be for you? well, i think the first thing to say is that the main basis for partnering in the european union, with europe, generally is actually the european space agency, not really the european union or the commissions so we put the majority of our funding through the european space agency, that is independent of the european union, and we are not going anywhere in terms of the european space agency. we in fact increased our contributions to the european space agency in 2016, after the eu exit referendum. all of that is true but there is one project that, in many ways, dwarfs all others, which is run by the european union, not by the european space agency, and

britain must not fall. in our harbors, idle and rocking the ancient destroyers, built for world war i. but this was world war ii. this gave us an idea. 50 tired destroyers were revitalized and transferred to great britain. in return, we acquired further protection of our shores. we obtained a chain of bases stretching from newfoundland. these bases created a wall around the caribbean and gave new safety to the panama canal. it was now clear to the aggressors that we were conscious of the threat they represented to our country. the assistant secretary of state will tell us how they got together and tried to scare us off. >> from 1936 on, it became increasingly clear to the world that germany, italy and japan, are pursuing a common pattern of aggression in europe and the far east. on september 27, 1940, these three powers signed the so- called pact of berlin, a treaty of far-reaching alliance. by that treaty, it was provided that the three countries would assist one another with all political, economic and mi

dues have been in britain since 1566. i know of no other application for dues, the majority of our community are asking, is this country safe to bring up our children? this is very worrying and there is only one word for it, anti—semitism. shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell said that criticism from figures like the former chief rabbi is misguided. the accusation aboutjeremy corbyn being anti—semite and this reference to enoch powell is just so wrong. and the grounds upon which he made those statements, let's talk through some of those. first of all, he said anti—semitism is blaming israel for everything that has happened in the middle east. jeremy has never done that. look at some of his speeches. his attacks on iran, and saudi arabia, the role of other countries in the middle east, and iraq. look at what has happened over the years. 30—odd years thatjeremy has been campaigning against racism. but also on issues in the middle east. he said it is anti—semitism to conflatejews and zionism. jeremy specifically disting

and how europe needed britain more than britain needed europe. about a fantasy about the unexplored opportunities outside the eu, which is the biggerfallacy. now, none of these are deliverable in the real world because you have to have a counter—party to deliver them. whether or not theresa may survives and whether or not she is challenged, that reality will not change. on the club metaphor, what sort of organisation threatens people who want to leave? they are not threatening, they are just saying we would be sorry if you left, but that is your choice. we are supposed to be friendly nations. her original speech, the lancaster house speech offered in the most diplomatic language continued friendship and security. but the fundamental — one of the memes of the last month has been 80% of the deal is already done, i don't know what the 80% is, but i do know the 20% that needs to be done and that is the northern irish border. this is not a club membership, and it is coloured by the fact it is deeply political. the 27 nations, the 26 plus ireland,

this is the message for the international audience, britain is open for business. the daily telegraph think it is going to play well at home because it's on their front page! staying with america, jim, but let's go to the ft, they are focusing on trump, a lovely photo and a wry smile as un delegates at the general assembly listen to him set out his worldview and his views on how great america is, and perhaps the odd snigger. he said words to the effect of we've had the most successful administration in the first two yea rs administration in the first two years in american history, at which point the world's diplomats slowly burst out into ripples of laughter and a slightly baffled donald trump was forced to go, i wasn't expecting that! i love the other image, not on any of the other front pages, from the meeting, of the new zealand prime minister, i always say her name wrong, jacinda ardern... you never try and say the name of someone you don't know. her few months old kid. she had a security pass specially made for it. she had her partner with her to look after th

a destruction from this week's ultimatum to residents affected by britain's worst. since world war two. but first jeremy corbyn may be rallying his socialist troops in liverpool but what about monday's speech by shadow chancellor john mcdonnell the british labor party conference this is what he told us about first being appointed by corbin when i asked him about britain's media landscape well we were the first people before anybody else to raise the issues about the abuse by the british media elements within the british media and before anyone else raised and we were doing on behalf of for example the national union journalists who had many of their members bullied if they weren't for example involving themselves in what may fall from professional practices intrusions in personal personal privacy of people and they were reporting a problem so we raised those issues and it all does all come down to a lack of democratic strategy control of our media but the concentration of powers in ownership of critique there is a lack of diversity of british media by u.k. shadow ch

he claimed it would be a disaster, and britain is waving the white flag. not for the first time, his antics made the tory top brass sigh. this is a plan that's been put forward by the uk government, and it is still being considered by all the different bits that make up the eu, and let's see what they say. but that is the plan. number ten's adamant that brussels can work with their plan, claiming mrjohnson is not a serious politician. but being rude doesn't change the fact that mr barnier, as well as brexit backers, think chequers just can't work. we found that we are in a considerable degree of agreement that chequers is absolute rubbish, and that we should chuck it, and that what we should have is a canada—style free trade deal. add to that, many former remainers share that opinion. the biggest problem for me is how people see this. the chequers deal is now more unpopular with the british people than the poll tax was. and that is why it is untenable to take forward. we are more than two years into this process, but it is far from over. activists pushin

the whole -- britain had one weapon that was ready: the royal navy. shortly after war was declared -- in the north sea. blockading germany. world conquest was impossible without running smack up against the rock called britain. how to strike at the island, that was the question. between britain and germany stood not only france, but the accident countries of luxembourg, norway, denmark and sweden. the people of these small neutral countries were peaceful, hard working and free. they knew they were in the middle and feared violation of their neutrality. hiltler knew this. he also knew if they united with the allies, their conquest would be far more difficult. so before striking with his army, he used another weapon, the propaganda barrage, to confuse, to make them lose faith, to divide and conquer. to lull the fears of the neutrals, propaganda nobles told them germany didn't win a war at all. it was britain and france that caused all the trouble. then it was hitler's turn. in the speech on october 6th, 1939, he made them all [indiscernible] a specific

one of them is britain stays in the single market or the customs union, the other is britain leaves com pletely the other is britain leaves completely and has some sort of free trade deal with all sorts of negotiations added on. what is not clear for negotiations added on. what is not clearfor germany negotiations added on. what is not clear for germany and really for brussels, is the idea of some sort of halfway house, angela merkel has already said x it means except, quoting theresa may ‘s famous phrase, and for it is quite clear that you are either in or out. they also view the chequers proposals as simply unworkable. the idea of splitting goods and services, a free market for one but not for the other, is not only cherry picking really and dismantling the single market, which is so important to german exports, it is also seen as something you cannot even do because what is a good and what is an export, what is a service? if you look at the car industry, it is hard to define one from the other. it was never going to go ahead and that was because it was unworkable and it risked dism

on the books since one thousand twenty three when myanmar was called burma and was a colony of great britain these two voices journalists were one of the few journalists that were actually doing investigative work into the situation in rakhine state they were sentenced under a colonial era law at the official secrets act but other repressive laws are extensively used as well. as the asians act the peaceful assembly act the penal code as a whole raft of repressive laws these two generally is really their freedom and their their life to expose the genocide exposed the highest crime that was quite committed by the various military and this is the biggest threat for them for the military but they will never tolerate this. anymore as government has a unique structure unlike any government anywhere else in two thousand and sixteen entente suchi the political activist who had been kept under house arrest for fifteen years during the military dictatorship took up the post of state councilor akin to a prime ministership it was a momentous event i'm a historic day for the people around the world men m

he and others don t want britain to feel disenchanted and therefore in britain, what is happening inside her majesty s opposition? the row about anti—semitism within labour isn t abating. this week frank field — who s been a labour mp since 1979 and a party memberfor 60 years — resigned from it, citing anti—semitism and a culture of bullying. the deputy leader warned the resignation was a sign of the party s drift, and reflected its deep divisions. yasmin, his resignation is about more than just anti—semitism, but is tom watson right that this is a wake up call? i don't think frank field is a wake—up call. his presence has been problematic. i do think the labour party is mishandled the situation. it has let it drift politically for so long. it has become noxious with the result was no way out of it. i do not know who is advising jeremy corbyn. he is not an anti—semite. the noxious fumes are engulfing the party and in that sense, watson was right. going back to frank field, to see him supposedly martyring himself on this. he has been good on some aspects of business etc but
