it's been a very long time and i'm so happy i did it because eleanor roosevelt never stopped growing and changing. and what made her so great is that her friend, lady stella redding, this wonderful woman who ran the wartime emergency help brigade in england during world war ii said eleanor roosevelt's first love was the people, and that really, i think, is the essence of eleanor roosevelt. she loved people and she wanted to make life better for everybody in want in need, in trouble. she went around the country and around the world, and she said, tell me, what do you want? what do you need? and everybody is always asking me, how did she get that way? and she answer seems to me at this point, very simple. her father, who she loved very much, was an alcoholic, who died the age of 34. so we need to pause and say, well, how much did he have to drink to die the age of 34. i mean, we're still here. and her mother died when eleanor roosevelt was eight. she essentially turned her face to the wall and her father died when she was ten. and eleanor roosevelt spent the rest of her life growing and changing, w

eleanor roosevelt with wings. what if adams had defeated jefferson and you didn't have the regime change? what if john quincy adams was reelected in 1828? what if he defeats andrew jackson? jacksonian democracy does not develop. what if he had been defeated in 1860? that could have been better, maybe the south would not have broken away. maybe the north would have broken away over slavery. i don't know the answer to this question. but it matters. uber defeats fdr -- hoover defeats fdr. he is not moving us in the right direction as far as the great depression is concerned. here is one, carter is reelected in 1980, rather than reagan, what does that mean for our country? what does that mean for the economy at the time? what does that mean for the place in the world? what would that mean for the iranian hostages? reagan was transformative. that is why it matters, when you go through each one of those elections, you can see that it makes a difference between war and peace, union of the country or confederacy, prosperity or depression, slavery or freedom, individual rights versus government po

eleanor garnier, our political correspondent, you are going to see which battle bus you are going to be an! we don't yet know the shape of the election campaign, but it isjust around the corner. what changedn all along, when you look at the state of the opposition and the small majority that theresa may has in the house of commons, bearing in mind that most of the trouble she has faced so far has been from her own backbenchers, from that small group of rebels sitting behind her in the house of commons. i think the temptation must have always been there, we know that opinion polls show the conservatives more than 20 points ahead, that is a huge difference, although obviously we don't go on the opinion polls just as they are. we know that anything can happen in campaigns, and there are can happen in campaigns, and there a re often can happen in campaigns, and there are often unlikely victims in campaigns. especially so at the moment! i spend a lot of time talking to europeans on our programme 100 days, and a lot of them say she does not have a mandate from the british people, and that must play on a mind at the negotiating table. i think that is one of the big reasons as to why she has deci

eleanor garnier, joins us from westminster. how significant are these comments? well, i think this is interesting because the tone we're getting from ministers talking about immigration seems to have changed there might need to be a period of implementation so the government and businesses too can get used to the new rules. she said our borders and our policy on immigration would come under british control after brexit, but i think she left over the possibility that free movement might continue for a little bit, albeit, temporarily. the two years for the talks to be completed has now started. many have said this is going to be tough. i think what we're seeing is the prime minister, government, laying the ground if you like, showing there may need to be a bit of give, a bit of take, compromise, if the government is going to make a success out of brexit. eleanor, thank you. labour has failed the jewish community by not expelling ken livingstone from the party — according to the chief rabbi, ephraim mirvis. the former mayor of london was yesterday given a further one—year suspension for claiming hitler supported zionism in the 1930s. drivers of diesel cars who are facing new charges and rest
