ijust wonderwhat this wasn't at the root of his wrongdoing. ijust wonder what kind of background checks are actually made in relation to new recruits? the background checks are really looking for evidence of an individual. we are looking for things that may be in the realm of causing a problem. i think that whilst that is certainly the view the prosecution have, i wouldn't doubt that. it left him vulnerable to the advances of people who have no solution, they are obsolete in society, by which i mean dissident republicans. i fear that indeed a young life has been ruined by his actions. but many lives have probably been saved and this should send a message to people. when he is eventually released from prison he will look back on his wasted life, wasted behind bars, and realise these people have nothing to offer

ijust couldn't get it right. convey what i needed to convey to the reader. i couldn't do it until... people say in your prose nothing is wasted. every word counts. that was a craft you tried to develop? i kept doing it and doing it. you mentioned the book my name is lucy barton, essentially about the relationship between a mother and daughter. in it there's a point at which the daughter is in hospital, hasn't seen her mum years and years, suddenly she wakes up in hospital and marmie, as she calls her, is there and in the space of i think five days they start talking and trying to understand and learn more about each other. but, again, there is this pathos in this at least quite early on. she wakes up and says, marmie, why did you come here? says lucy. answer, there is none. at least not straightaway. right. well, that is her mother. what can you do? there are some others that are not as communicative as others. her mother has her own story, as well. but my particular feeling is that these are two people that love

unfortunate, as that is what ijust i wouldn't like to say.t like to say. unfortunate, as that is what ijust asked you!” am not an expert on the defence budget. i know. this investigation suggests that the next generation of warplanes will be unable to function properly because they won't have the money to run them. that may be right, but i think that big question is, the ministry of defence will have to answer this, go back to the times and all these critics and say, these new fighter jets times and all these critics and say, these new fighterjets will function properly. the burden of proof is really on the ministry of defence to explain themselves. i can help you with that because we have had a statement from the mod, and it says cole and we are committed to the capital air35 programme, which is on time, within costs, and offers the best capability for our armed forces. —— and it says: we are committed... if you look at the article here, some of the problems are that it will not be able to operate without revealing its position, which is not

ijust wa nt to point. i will come onto that. ijust want to make some general comments. remind the house of the damage that public disasters cause to all those affected. we know from the hillsborough tragedy in 1989 and more recently, of course, the appalling fire at grenfell tower. every public disaster of this kind is different, their causes are different, the victims suffer in different, the victims suffer in different ways and the measures necessary to support their families differ also. but there is one thing which i feel every victim has a fundamental right to, and that is the right answers. they deserve to be told what went wrong, what went wrong and why it went wrong. the story of the injustice they suffered also needs to be set out and told to the wider public. their voices need to be heard. apologies, compensation and will forms of support are essential, but if they're right a nswe i’s essential, but if they're right answers is not satisfied ifeel they will be denied justice. making a very powerful case and thank her for the work she has done. many victims have

so ijust gave it a gaelic pronunciation. i mostly teach gaelic for a living.me. but i don't really know too much about the gaelic culture in my own family. in this community, at least up until the 19505, everyone spoke gaelic. and in the early 1900s there was an education act, people weren't allowed to teach gaelic in school orjust speak gaelic in school, it had to be only english. and i think it was kind of dramatic for a lot of people that they were going to school and sometimes being punished for speaking their native language. it was something like playing the fiddle. it died out in the area years ago. there was a fiddle in every household. and no doubt someone in every household that could play. and that died away for a number of years. and people realised what was happening, and the interest grew in it. now it's, you know, no matter where you go now on cape breton island you're going to hear fiddle music. probably in the last 15 or 20 years there has been a revival going on. speaks in gaelic. that means, "young learning is beautiful learning". i play the

ijust went in. getting a medal would be nice, but...nally, what can we look forward to in the next session tomorrow? james guy and duncan scott put in an incredible performance in the 200 freestyle semis, they are going into the final at number one and two. hopefully we can see two brits on the podium. that would be incredible if we could see that. thanks you two. you will be able to catch mark and becky on bbc sport coverage over the next few days. london hosts the world athletics championships from the end of next week, eilidh doyle will captain the british team. the scottish a00 metres hurdler doyle won the vote amongst squad members, beating defending world champions mo farah and greg rutherford to the role. it's such an honour. i was shocked when they told me, but yeah, makes it even more special to know the rest of the two mix—up chosen me to be captain. it means a lot. i think we will do really well. you see the effect that principle can have on us. effect that principle can have on us. you saw what happened in london 2012. we ha

ijust really want questioning you and you are there by yourself.ust really want to questioning you and you are there by yourself. ijust really want to get a feel for what the people on the ground are really feeling because in england we are bombarded with venues and then we see people protest in. whether it is really affecting everyday people because of this is about politicians but are people actually being effected. all the models at this fashion show were wearing earjames models at this fashion show were wearing ear james and models at this fashion show were wearing earjames and were immigrants to the us. —— hijabs we got exclusive backstage access to the show. music: 99 problems byjay z. i was completely blown away by it. she has an ability to grab these very intricate details and translate them into very wearable clothes, and i thought this one was dramatic, but yet you can adapt it to an everyday wardrobe. applause. new york fashion week has been very political. a lot of designers have been making statements that have been very pointed but ve

0k, well, first ijust want to say it is a tremendous privilege and pleasure being back at hay.s place has its own spirit, its own buzz, and it's always wonderful to be here. basically, just for those who don't know, the idea that came to us was, i mean, looking for ways, as people who write or work with culture in general, looking for ways to kind of ameliorate, or influence for the better, the situation on the ground. we thought that if we took — if we took artists and writers from the west to go and work in palestine, to do literary readings, seminars, workshops in universities and so on for one week and they would have the — you would be giving them a unique experience. you would be enabling them to the experience of living like a palestinian under occupation, for one week. and you would be giving the palestinians exposure to world—class artists and events. and then basically, everyone would go their own way. and so, one thing that was very clear, for example, is that we would not avail ourselves of the privileges that come with carrying a foreign, and particularly a western

and then ijust continued to play the game. the lpga had not started until 1950.ed the tour in 1967. at that time there were a lot of tensions in our country. sometimes we would go into restaurants and they would serve everybody but me. and my partner on tour, a canadian pro, a few years ago she said, i used to wonder why would go to restaurants and they would serve everybody else but us. isaid, sandra, i didn't want to tell you it was because you were a canadian. ididn't want you to feel bad! but things like that. i remember going home crying telling my parents the first time i got a threat letter, i thought they would tell me to come home, and they didn't! i thought, evidently they don't think somebody is quick to jump out from behind a tree and shoot me. is that what the letters were saying? no, they would just say, dear n, if you know what's good for you, you better get out of here. i went out a director and showed him the letters and he said, there is nothing we can do about it. ‘cos i really thought something would happen. but it didn't. one of the great pla

i think a novel or a work of art can be political, will be political, ijust don't think...vel to show that oppressing women is bad," for example. 0bviously oppressing women is bad and middlemarch is a great feminist novel for example, but i think when you're creating a novel or a film you need to be willing to let it have its own integrity... i mean, you set out, obviously you are yourself and you have your political beliefs and so on and they will get in there, but it's not there to serve them. yourjob is to conceive of a novel and then allow it to go its own way and see what it does rather than to hem it into a particular message you want to get across i think. i'm afraid our time's up. i've been a journalist for 30 something years and this story in the middle east has been told in such stark and sometimes ugly terms, thank you for civilising the debate. thank you. ahdaf soueif. applause thank you, everybody. well, it has been the classic mixed bag today. the weather can't make up its mind. sunshine and downpours, but is likely to continue for the next 2a hours at least.

ijust i just feel like a little ijust feel like a little boy i just feel like a little boy again, going was on target, but ijust missed out. gb's second gold went to commonwealth champion ben proud in the 50 metres butterfly. this isn't even his favoured event — that's the 50 metres freestyle, which he competes in at the end of the week. the gold medal was a bit of a surprise, and for no one more than proud himself! i wasn't thinking about the race at all. the thought of winning hasn't been on my mind since last night. i just went in, maybe a medal would be nice, but... idon't just went in, maybe a medal would be nice, but... i don't know! he can't quite believe it. there's been criticism of the rfu's decision not to renew contracts for the england women's fifteen—a—side team. the world champions defend their title in ireland next month, but afterwards the rfu will shift focus to the sevens squad ahead of next year's commonwealth games. the rfu say several players will be offered sevens contracts. those who are involved in the 15's by those who are involved in the 15's rugby at the mome

as ijust told you, i was a participant in the ira's activities in birmingham.lunteer. did you plant the birmingham pub bomb that killed 21 people in november 1974? again, no comment. why won't you answer the question? no comment. i've been accused...i've been accused of a lot of things, without one shred...one shred of forensic evidence, without one statement made, without one witness coming against me. not one. but did you plant the bombs? i was a participant in the ira's campaign in england. you are not answering the question. did you plant the bombs? i'm giving you the only answer i can give you. the only one that i can give you. i will leave it to your viewers, your editorial staff, whoever they are, to work out what i'm saying. again, i take full collective responsibility for all operations carried out in the west midlands. i take collective responsibility for every ira operation carried out in england, let alone birmingham. so you are taking responsibility for the birmingham pub bombs? i will accept responsibility for them. as collective responsibility, t

ijust have to go up and like spend $55 million..., an expert, a man who knew what he was talking about. and somebody said this very day, a very serious man. i said, no, not when you were with him. he liked people, he was gregarious, he loved a laugh. oh boy, i miss him. hello, and why not? that, in a sense, is why it's there. or is it? who cares? he even had the honour of a spitting image puppet, but that alleged catchphrase and "why not" was that creation of the impressionists. but by 1998, frustrated at being bounced around the schedule, he left the bbc for sky, but his place in tv history was already assured. he was, for more than a quarter of the century, tv‘s face of film. barry norman who‘s died, at the age of 83. all this weekend, we‘ve been reporting on the ceremonies marking 20 years since britain handed over hong kong to china. with the official events now behind us, to wrap up our coverage on a different note, we thought we‘d introduce you to the territory‘s answer to one direction. this boy band wants to empower hong kong
