the commonwealth and the queen have grown up together. she knows the commonwealth extremely well. queen on the commonwealth's tour to see the empathy that exists between her and everybody in those 54 countries. really is quite remarkable to see. >> reporter: the royal yacht "britannia" always a great place for a party. the queen and the duke played host in 1989. the mood is relaxed, almost exuberant. but in '63, girlishly excited. who's that coming onboard now? >> of new zealand. >> the queen is inseparable from the modern -- it is because she's been her own person throughout that the integrity and authenticity in everything that she does, and which people sense, because it's not simply football keep up an act for 60 years. >> reporter: the queen has always championed the commonwealth. it's a passion. her prime ministers, and she's had 12 of them, have tended to focus more on europe and the united states. >> i have very personal reasons for feeling a special affection for africa. for it was in cape town in 1947 on my 21st fwhaernlbirthday tha committed my life to the service of th

as did the other mayors throughout the commonwealth. when mitt romney left office in january of 2007, i told my fellow mayors that it would take five years for us to rebuild for the damage that he created during his tenure here. the people of this country have to look closely at the romney record in massachusetts to better understand what he truly stands for. as the old saying goes, you never change the stripes on a zebra. mitt romney was bad for massachusetts, and he's going to be bad for america. it gives me great pleasure to introduce to you one of the great mayors of the commonwealth of massachusetts, joe curttone from the city of summerville. >> thank you, john. it's great to see everybody out here. this is democracy in action. thank you for the bubbles. it's a hell of a lot better than the smoke mitt romney blew at us ten years ago. good morning. i'm honored and grateful to be offered this opportunity to talk about mitt romney's record as governor of massachusetts from 2002 to 2006. as an elected official in the city of summervill

the jury obviously believed the commonwealth's evidence, believed the commonwealth witnesses. that's clear from their verdict. i've been asked already inside, is that a surprise and no, actually it was the expected outcome because of the overwhelming amount of evidence against jerry sucked. y sandusky. >> we asked for a continuance on the basis that we needed more time to sift through the thousands of pages of materials to determine what other types of defenses we might have, but due to judicial constrictions we were forced to proceed to trial at this time. i think most of you would have agreed with me that had someone said last november and december we'd have a trial in early june, that you would have agreed that that was not very likely at all and yet, here we are with a trial now that has concluded and it's still the latter part of june after three weeks in court. we have some appeal issues we'll pursue. we feel we have some decent appeal issues. i do want to say this. the prosecution handled the case in an exemplary manner. they're professionals. they presented their case

today she turns her attention to the commonwealth and is attending a special lunch including with prime ministers and government leader. our correspondent, naomi, anything at the house is pga niff sent. colorful affair, no doubt. is the queen going to be going home with the duke of eden bral still in hospital? >> he's said to have improved significantly. overnight, and he's responding well to antibiotic. but it's still expected that he will spend the next few days in hospital. so the queen will be attending this commonwealth lunch alone. >> also people turning up but rather controversially. the president of the sri lanka. and there's been rather loud protests. >> yes. the sri lankain' president has just arrived minutes before we came on air, and there were many large shouts as his car swept into the -- but they have kept their quite -- quiet through the jubilee but say now protests set to continue when her majesty arrives in about half an hour's time. >> naomi, despite rumblings of republicanism in places like jamaican, the queen is known to have great affection for the commonwealth and

but late thursday afternoon, the commonwealth asked the court to allow the commonwealth to keep its case open. at least overnight because it had just come into information that it wanted to investigate. later thursday evening, i received a call from the commonwealth attorneys at which time they indicated to me, matt sandusky had gone to them and contacted them late thursday afternoon and then made a statement to them thursday evening indicating that jerry had abused him years earlier and that they were thinking about introducing matt sandusky as a witness at jerry's trial in this matter. i objected. the court was involved in that conversation. i indicated that our whole case was predicated with jerry testifying. and jerry had always wanted to testify. however, the next day, the commonwealth attorney advised me it would not call matt sandusky in its case in chief. that it would reserve the right to call him as a rebuttal witness, depending on what evidence we presented. that created a real dilemma for us, because if we call jerry sandusky now as a witness, it would almost certainly, and w

in addition to oklahoma, the commonwealth paid for indians to attend schools and other states. additionally to provide funding for the schools. at one hand, we were acknowledged by both the federal and state government. the most telling testimony of the current system, the 1999, the head of the bia, the indian triable delegation that many of the people assembled on that day would not live long enough to get federal recognition through the administrative process. we have had many chiefs since then. the administrative process for people in the southeast has been very low. several factors contribute to the low success rate. lack of resources needed for the information to be complied or the process geared more towards post. . a lot of them cannot afford the cost. criteria was for the tribes in the united states. i'll skip to my closing remarks. regarding when indian tribes should be newly recognized by the federal government, let me put it this way. tribes who have been able to maintain the identity over hundreds of years who are have faced abuse and insult because of their heritag

later that evening, we received a call from the commonwealth and the commonwealth attorney indicatedmatt sandusky had talked to them and indicated that jerry had abused him. at that point i objected to the surprise and explained to the judge, the judge was involved in the conference, that we had always intended jerry to testify. this tremendously undercut our defense, placed us in a really bad situation since i had promised the jury that jerry wood testify. so the next day the commonwealth alerted me to the fact that it had thought about its issue with matt sandusky and would not call matt in its case in chief. meaning it would rest without calling him. but it reserved the right to call him in rebet al. that put us in a position of trying to decide if there was some way we could call jerry sandusky as a wetness and jerry could testify without triggering matt's testimony in rebuttal. it was too risky and we also decided if jerry testified and matt testified, regardless of the fact that not only jerry but dottie and the other five siblings of matt's all indicated that matt would be lyi

the same thing the multi-cultural society like britain today, it is the fact that she kept the commonwealthether in ways that she has for 60 years. we wanted to try this as much as we possibly could. you name it, we had aborigines care prince harry on the tambourine. a very moving performance. >> you are on the stage at the end when everybody came out. the queen and sir charles made that speech, what was that like to be there? >> it was fantastic. the thing i enjoyed the most was at the very beginning when this was not show on television but when i went out and we rehearsed the whole audience. that was fun because something that you are not completely on duty but a huge sign and it was amazing. >> here she is back, more live pictures. walking solo without her husband. prince philip, he is in the hospital because of his bladder infection. it looks like the luncheon is over and she is walking outside and the big moment we are waiting for despite the rain we have been hearing on this roof is the fact she will be taking this open carriage, the last time we saw this particular carriage publicly

the commonwealth has stayed together. it now has 54 nations. it is a voluntary association dedicated to promoting good government, the environment and a range of issues and the queen is the head of it. that is a ceremonial role. >> could countries opt out? >> sure. and they can be kicked out for human rights violations as zimbabwe was, for example. they can also apply to be admitted. >> she played a behind-the- scenes role in seth africa, did she not? >> -- south africa, did she not? >> she did. i had conversations with the former prime minister of canada who was involved in the actions taken to get rid of the apartheid and all of the economic sanctions, and there were moments when it seemed the commonwealth would split up because of it and there was disagreement and the queen deftly worked behind the scenes applying -- she got them together and they kind of head and delegate -- elevated discussion. she never expressed her opinion. >> she does not. >> no, but she gets people to come together. she got margaret thatcher, who was opposed to giving

the jury obviously believed the commonwealth's evidence, believed the commonwealth witnesses. that's clear from their verdict. i've been asked already inside, is that a surprise? no, actually it was the expected outcome because of the overwhelming amount of evidence against jerry sandusky. >>> and let's get more on the reaction to the verdict. national correspondent susan candiotti is live in bellefonte, pennsylvania. good morning to you, susan. let's talk about the reaction there. have you had a chance to speak to people? give us an idea of what it was like there, the scene last night as the verdict was read. >> reporter: randi, good morning. the scene was electric. the very courthouse lawn where i'm standing, filled with spectators, some bringing their children, because they said they wanted to see part of history. i have not found anyone who has told me they were surprised by this verdict. here is the front page of the local paper here, jerry sandusky being led away in han cuffs with the headline "guilty." you heard his defense lawyer say even he was not surprised given all

they're happening in many of the commonwealth nations.states and around the world right now. i'm wolf blitzer in the situation. only minutes from now, we're all going to be seeing history unfolding live in the united kingdom where queen elizabeth ii will take the stage and light what's called the national beacon, the final touch in an international ring of fire as it's being described. a set of blaze required in her 60 years on the throne. cnn is covering this from all vantage points, we have all of our reporters and analysts standing by. richard, first of all, walk us through for viewers who aren't necessarily familiar with the beacon lighting ceremony, what we're about to see from the queen herself. >> what're going to see is the queen placing the crystal that you've just been showing this, diamond crystal that was specially cut and has been cut within an inch of its light. it will be placed within a receptacle and will fire a very large flame into the air and that will be, if you like t final moment of this triumph. i can tell you, nex

when she took over there were eight members of the commonwealth, now there's 54.the world, 54 nations. >> the celebrations have been going on for months already and will continue into the coming year. there have been stamps issued in her honor. coins minted in her honor. i read in one, i think it was in barbados, a cricket field was named after the queen, which is a big deal. probably bigger than getting a coin minted in your honor. as i mentioned those celebrations, and visits by members of the royal family to the common wait, and areas of the commonwealth will continue throughout the year. >> that's right, matt. the big one, i think, will be when william and kate go on their next major mission which is malaysia and singapore. that's going to be mid-september. and that will be huge. i think the press corps on that will be over 100, 150 people. >> it may be hard, the queen, to not go on all those trips but she has backed off the long-distance trips allowing other members of the royal family to do that for her. >> my understanding from people i speak to is really s

draw inspiration from the countless kindnesses shown to me in this country and throughout the commonwealth. thank you all. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> as we see the family again without prince philip at the balcony and these brilliant pictures, andrew and martin, let's talk about, again, the queen and her amazing and not just longevity, of course, which we celebrate today, but the kind of leader she has been. andrew? >> well, that's right. i mean, everything martin said earlier was absolutely right. especially with regard to duty. this is a woman who at her 21th birthday promised the then-british empire but also the commonwealth, that the rest of her life would be dedicated to them, would be a life of duty to them. and that's a big thing to say at the age of 21, and now 65 years later, we know that she meant every word she said because it has been a question of duty. also, of course, she personifies the continuity of the united kingdom. in her person is the blood that goes back a thousand years, and the way in which this, only the second diamond jubilee in the whole of those thousand years has come off reall

the commonwealth was prepared to go forward.ow, this was a very complex case involving a lot of different -- in these cases, the defense has to come up with something. and it's not unusual for them to accuse victims like this of lying, of engaging in conspiracies or doing something for financial gain. obviously the jury in this case didn't agree with the assessment of mr. amendola and were comfortable with the result here. >> i just wonder what your thoughts are after such a monumental verdict, given such a painful, agonizing round of testimony? there are no good emotions in any of this, but what are your thoughts after this verdict? >> well, my thoughts are that this case from the beginning was about the victims in this case. the eight young men. i think that the verdict in this case is very positive for victims everywhere, not in particular the eight young men who came forward and bravely testified in this case and told a packed courtroom in bellefonte, pennsylvania, what happened to them in their childhood when they met jerry

you're looking forward to the commonwealth games in 2014. >> it is still exciting. it is phenomenal. it is something to look forward. i trained with the team a lot. i look forward to seeing them. every athlete is excited and looking forward to this year. it is something to look forward to. >> i am sure you're looking forward to carrying the torch. >> very much. could she will be taking the mantle of the torch tomorrow morning and running through edinburg tomorrow. thank you. back to you in london, george. >> thank you very much. thank you. we are getting news that syrian state tv says authorities are in control of haffa after eight days of clashes. reuters is reporting syrian forces have "cleansed terrorist groups from the town of haffa and restored security." the u.n. has been describing was going on in syria as something very near a civil war. america raising concerns that what happens around haffa was nearing a massacre. that is it for this edition of gmt. please do stay with us here on "bbc world news." there is plenty more to come. >> funding was made possible

the jury believed the commonwealth evidence, the commonwealth witnesses. it's clear from the verdict. i have been asked inside, is that a surprise? no, it was the expected outcome because of the overwhelming amount of evidence against jerry sandusky. >> one of the recurrent themes of the witness' testimony, which came from the voices of the victim's themselves in this case was, who would believe a kid? the answer to that question is, we, here in pennsylvania would believe a kid. our goal here has always been to bring about a fair and a just result in this case. that goal has been accomplished with the jury's verdict today. we believe that justice has been served. >> pretty powerful moments happening late last night. joining me now is susan candiotti in pennsylvania for us this morning. good morning, susan. we heard the cheers outside the courtroom when the verdict was read. take us inside the courtroom. what was the reaction there? >> well, you heard a little bit of it. as you heard the cheers outside, it was much more subdued there. jerry sandusky appeare

his private sector experience at bain capital and public sector experience as governor of the commonwealthf massachusetts qualify him for this office. so let's look at the facts. shall we? at bain capital, where his job was two return profits as quickly as possible to a very narrow few rather than creating long-term jobs for the many. he, driving up debt in some cases bankrupting companies before oftentimes walking away from these businesses, leaving a trail of lost jobs and economic heartache for many. now, there's nothing illegal about that. there is nothing illegal about that. that is part of this free enterprise system. there are ship builders and there are ship wreckers. there are people who manufacture cars, and there are people who scrap cars. every job, of course, is needed, but as mitt romney's only colleagues at bain capital point the out, our mission was wealth creation. not job creation. they're different things. the second dubious claim, which i think is a claim that he has not been making much even himself, has to do with his experience across your border in the commonwealth
