there is no more mcdonnell douglas anymore. over the course of the past couple decades, the plants closed and they eventually merge with boeing. which is of course the most important manufacturer of airplanes. mcdonnell douglas, which once built the transport vehicles for the u.s. and other allied nations in world war ii, disappears. they closed first a plant in torrance. they also had plants in tulsa and other places. people just lost their jobs. this became very difficult for people who were doing heavy industry jobs. welding and riveting, people who were machinists. they suffered terribly because of that. in 1973, a spokesperson for the afl-cio actually came before the u.s. finance committee to talk about what was happening to our economy. i will quote him. he said, "we have become a nation of hamburger stands. a country of industrial capacity and meaningful work stripped of these things. we are a service economy. a nation busily buying and selling root beer floats." so, this is what happens. we go from being an industrial e

john mcdonnell! commend this statement to the house. john mcdonnell!r to his new job, although after that, welcome the chancellor to his new job, although afterthat, i'm beginning to miss the old one. i believe that the chancellor may be the first person to hold that role whose father, like my own, was a bus driver. so, mr speaker, iwould like to welcome him to his newjob, i also hope what they say is true, that you wait ages for one song of a bus driver to become chancellor of the exchequer, only to be followed soon after by another. mr speaker,, i'm afraid, that's probably the end of what the chancellor and i have in common. let me thank the chancellor for abiding by the convention of providing me with a copy of his statement. it was a compendium of meaningless platitudes. so, could i ask him... so, could i ask him to ta ke ask him... so, could i ask him to take a message back to the person who obviously drafted the statement, so, if he could tell mr cummings... the man who cancels the chancellor's own speeches, sacks his staff without telling him, a

with the latest from the airport, our correspndent, stephen mcdonnell.ts have, to an extent, at least, achieved their goal. here at the airport in hong kong, that gate there is where passengers normally come out to reach buses. you can see it's closed. here's a barricade that's been built to stop them coming in or out. the idea was to cause transport chaos. and here are the protesters, the pro—democracy activists, who've, again, defied the authorities, defied warnings that to have a rally like this risks arrest, risks the potential of being charged with illegal assembly. and they're moving around the airport from place to place, trying to block various parts of the transport infrastructure. protesters are running in that direction and that's because the police have just arrived. and it had to be only a matter of time, given the transport chaos we've seen here today. so, this is the leaderless movement in action. they have a discussion, and then work out what to do. the most important thing for them is to try and escape the airport area without being arre

shadow chancellor john mcdonnell.urse, your party is in an interesting position because the prime minister needs to thirds of mps to back his request for a general election. jeremy corbyn has said the bill you passed yesterday has to be law before he will consent. what does that mean and how does that look to you? of ourhe whole thrust agenda is to prevent a no deal of brexit. so the legislation going through will help do that. want is that has been received we will consider the date for an election, so discussion now is when that date will be. we work with the opposition parties and consult with our own. , with borising johnson, it's very difficult to trust any deal we arrive at because he is not exactly consistent on maintaining agreements. so should we wait until the next economic council when a deal can be achieved, or should we go until october 31? there is a real issue here for boris johnson. second is the got the brexit party breathing down their neck. said he will only do a deal if he commits to a no deal brex

john mcdonnell explained why labour won't be backing to andrew marr earlier.pin him down and i don't trust him and i don't think anyone does. i think we have got a prime minister now who says he won't even abide by the law, by the law. i have never heard that before. we are in a situation now where no one can trust while he is in place what can happen. so we have got to use every mechanism we possibly can to rule out eight no deal and that is what we are trying to legislate on as best we can, but also once we have got to that situation we can then, i think, have a general election. you heard john mcdonnell —— say that the prime minister had said he would not obey the law. this morning he said... sajid javid denied that. he was equally insistent that boris johnson wouldn't resign and that he would be asking for that extension and you wouldn't really explain how the government intended to square that circle. the law talks about october the 19th in case there is no deal agreed in the council meeting. should we get to that position we will look at our options. of

you heard john mcdonnell saying the prime minister had said he would not obey the law.jid javid repeatedly denied that and insisted the government would obey the law but was equally insistent borisjohnson would not resign or be asking for the extension. and the mackie would not explain how the government intended to square the circle. the law talks about october the 19th in case there is no deal agreed in that council meeting. should we get to that position we will look at our options. we will obey the law. at that council, the prime minister would ask for an extension because thatis would ask for an extension because that is the law? we will not change oui’ that is the law? we will not change our policy. how does this work? it is completely baffling. if the law says one thing and you say the government will obey the law but we will not do that one thing, it's ha rd to will not do that one thing, it's hard to see how you will get out of that. the government will not change its policy and we will be consistent with obeying the law but sticking to oui’ with obeying the la

a debt of honour, mr mcdonnell says, tell us a bit more about what the party are promising?who is 65 and over who has the level of need that means they require free personal care. that is quite a big step, we are seeing this debate over how we pay for the social care is changing. they are saying this would be paid for through general taxation. they also say that they will address the shortfall in current funding, that is as limited as about 5.5 billion by 2025. —— that is estimated. at the moment, the system is in crisis and that would effectively prop up while the changes are made. we heard reference to trying to look oh so authorities trying to provide care directly rather than outsourcing it. some think they have an ambition for. the last part of this is improving training, supporting the ca re improving training, supporting the care workforce much better. estimated to cost about £6 million a year, i think, estimated to cost about £6 million a year, ithink, is estimated to cost about £6 million a year, i think, is that a cost that could change because we have a ageing pop

stephen mcdonnell is in hong kong.here in hong kong today. we have many thousands of people in the streets, despite being told by the police that they should clear out because this is technically an illegal assembly. we have had tear gas fired, we have had rubber bullets fired, this is right along the tram track route on hong kong island, stretched out over many kilometres. as a site, you can see how many people have turned out here and every now and then, you will hear these cheaters speaking, because this is a kind of corridor next to me where people are running stuff u p next to me where people are running stuff up to the front line. so they will send signals down, like they need some tires or water or something like that, and then you will get a group running through the middle of the more hardcore protesters with their gas masks and eve ryo ne protesters with their gas masks and everyone is cheering them on as they head to the front line. so the potential for more of this kind of street conflict today is considera

the americans and he came merely on from a record equalling when in the match, angel yen and allie mcdonnell ever so well. shortly after, europe got a point on the board. and thenit europe got a point on the board. and then it all came down to the drama of the final two matches. spare a thought. did it ever so well to come back from two down with four to play to go back from two down with four to play togo1— back from two down with four to play to go1— up. back from two down with four to play to go 1— up. they had to have the whole, but the good point for the usa was the final for off with six play. they ended up happening that whole. it is a one point lead for europe —— hole. jofra archer was the star of the show as england took charge of the fifth and final ashes test on day two. the home side made 294, before archer took 6 for 62 as australia were bowled out for 225. sam curran ripped through the middle order as steve smith stood firm making 80. our sports correspondent joe wilson was at the oval. the day began here with the end of england's first innings and start of their second innings

wherejeremy corbyn and john mcdonnell backing this push to get rid of tom watson as deputy leader inyour viewers, the labour party isa for your viewers, the labour party is a very democratic institution and this is a desire from the members. there is a clear dispute between the membership and the deputy leader. the reason for that is because there are the reason for that is because there a re lots of the reason for that is because there are lots of members, and i am one who voted for tom watson in 2015, he said ina who voted for tom watson in 2015, he said in a ticket of unity in supporting the labour leader and what has happened since then is graffiti not the case. and although he says he wants to have a debate, for that debate to happen you need all the mps who are loyal to him or all the mps who are loyal to him or a large number of them, basically, for that debate to take place and thatis for that debate to take place and that is obviously not going to happen. if tom watson wanted a debate to happen he could do that tomorrow but that won't happen. my tomorrow but that won't happe

denisi john mcdonnell, see johnd -- then you mcdonnell, considered to be the brains behind the operationnot get a better deal than remain, but once a second referendum. or in athey have a say, parliamentary system, are they to the side? francine: they are so far behind anyone, they have a crucial role to play if you have parliament with the brexiteers and the remainers. so if they can coalesce and try to find a government of unity, then they have huge power to try and play through and see it through to either extend or delay, or go to a general election. let's get back to our guests, julio court -- guests, julia coronado of macro policy perspectives and wei li of blackrock. thed this be a shock to system, or is it u.k. contained? is one ofhink it already many shocks to the system. i think we are fully in the cycle where businesses have to grapple -- in the capex cycle where businesses have to grapple with uncertainty in the system. we are not going to get a magic brexit solution by october 31. we can expect this to be dragging on. the solution won't be clear, and there will probably be m

we know there are many at the top of the labour party, tom watson is one of them, john mcdonnell, thee shadow foreign secretary, emily thornbury, and many others too who said no matter what happens, if there is another referendum we will back remain. jeremy corbyn, as things stand, is not prepared to go that far and it appears at the moment that the party could go into a snap general election not knowing its preference. it is going to be an interesting couple of days down there. thank you very much for now. thomas cook has asked the government for financial help — as it tries to avoid collapse. britain's oldest package holiday firm could fall into administration this weekend unless it finds 200 million pounds to secure a rescue deal. a collapse could leave around 150,000 british holidaymakers stranded. katie prescott has more. it has a lot of costs. 22,000 staff. now heading into the winter period, the date leading company has a cash flow crisis. if we book a holiday with thomas cook, we will pay for it before we go, obviously, but they actually do not pay the hotel until after we are

earlier, bbc breakfast spoke to the shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell.e are going to consult the other opposition parties and our own party itself, and then we will look... we are taking legal advice on this, look at how do we maximise our chances of preventing no deal? that could be, for example... the prime minister says he wants to negotiate a deal with other european partners. the economic council is coming up in late to mid—october. that could be around that time we wait for him to come back and see what deal he's got. at the moment the problem that we've got is he tells us he is negotiating a deal but the european union has said he's never put any proposals to them. people watching this this morning are saying labour have got all the cards in your hands right now, you have been calling for an election for years, this is your moment, i'm asking when is the election, and you can't can't give an answer. because we are doing exactly what we have done up until now to win. we have held all the opposition parties together. we have held our own party toget

it sounds as though john mcdonnell to be in their interests. of calling an election, which is rather than using the fixed—term parliaments act, to try to pass a bill that says notwithstanding that fixed—term parliaments act, we will have an election on the state. then the potential problem is because the government have said they are proroguing polymers next week is their time to get such a bill through? —— parliament. so this is the government —— difficulty facing the government —— difficulty facing the government. this is an unfair question but the question everybody wa nts to question but the question everybody wants to know, what is going to happen, how do you see this shaping up happen, how do you see this shaping up in the next few weeks? well, let‘s start from where we are at. the conservatives have made considerable advances in the polls. compared with where they were at the end of may. they are now at 34%, still well down on where they were in 2017. that puts them nine points ahead of labour. and they look set to gain seats. in scotlan

what is on the manifesto becausejohn mcdonnell told me a few weeks ago that decided in terms of any dealcame back from borisjohnson that in terms of any deal that came back from boris johnson that they want a referendum on it and that whatever the deal was, they did not have a strategy on what the election campaign would be or whether they would campaign for a main. and has been quite difficult to pin down exactly what labour position is with regards to a referendum and let me come up in an election but... one would presume if they are campaigning for remains and a referendum they would be for a remain campaign, you cannot sit on the fence any more is a point i'm making. i think it will be difficult, one of the questions will be how much this election will be brexit because we have this peculiar experience in 2017 where everything was about brexit. then the campaign began and it barely got mentioned. there was dementia tax and both parties sort of fights on their visions being on brexit and it would seem very visions being on brexit and it would seem very weird if that happened now with

commissioner mcdonnell. >> thank you so much. there are a few moments since my time of serving on the commission when we arrive at what for me as a native san franciscan growing up here come to these kind of seminal moments, as john so eloquently said, while the wrongs can't be undone, we certainly can make statements going forward. in my view, this is one of those statements that says this is significant and important enough to, yes, take the time -- too long -- to finally make this kind of commitment and investment. so i too join my colleagues in commending first just the stallward leadership and steadfast leadership and tireless leadership that brought us to this moment to move this forward. certainly as was said, we're not quite at the finish line, but we're near. thank you all who got us to this point. i did have one question because i couldn't quite understand from the staff report the budget plan, either in part or around the conceptual piece of it, which is beautiful, by the way, or the larger renovation effort. there was

john mcdonnell there. what about the next hour?er delay to brexit —— without a deal. that is pretty likely to go through. it is a full stage by seven o'clock tonight. we can now return to the chamber where the debate on the eu withdrawal bill continues. mine could not be in more different circumstances. on the night of the by—election i promised the people of my constituency that i would tell the prime minister exactly why a no—deal brexit would be damaging for my constituents. i am delighted that my constituents. i am delighted that my very first vote as an mp last night was to help parliament take back control of the agenda and do everything possible to prevent us leaving the eu without a deal. including speaking in this debate today. when it comes to a no—deal brexit, we need to stop talking in terms of the hypothetical and the theoretical and we need to start talking with candour about the real and damaging consequences it would bring. a no—deal brexit would be damaging for everyone in my constituency. but especially for the pe

one of the interesting things here, john mcdonnell, who is the shadow chancellor, and has been an earlyhat seizing schools assets could be illegal and he wouldn't do it. the activist behind the idea insisted on including it anyway. that tells you everything you need to know. private schools have raised the prospect of a legal challenge. i agree, i find it have raised the prospect of a legal challenge. i agree, ifind it really interesting, john mcdonnell‘s almost unilateral opposition to this. when you consider that a0 years ago he fell foul of the glc for precisely that same ideology versus practicality versus legalese, and it was ken livingstone who had to say, i can't pull the lever on this. a0 yea rs later i can't pull the lever on this. a0 years later and he is taking on that pragmatic, but stay towards the centre and keep distance on side and keep the establishment onside position. —— keep business onside. so it is interesting, to personality splits along these lines. as tony says, it could be illegal. but it puts a big flag on the sand and says, we know everything that is going on

that was stephen mcdonnell.te of texas. the gunman, a white man in his 30s, was later shot dead by police in the town of odessa. john mcmanus has this report. the terrifying moment a gun suspect crashed his vehicle into a police car, filmed by a bystander in texas. a road chase ended with police officers confronting him at this cinema complex then shooting him dead. the chase began after an officer who stopped the man's car for a traffic check was shot. the suspect then drove off, hijacking a us postal van and randomly shooting at other vehicles. just driving around, normal day, and then i hear gunshots. it was at least ten shots, ok. i got one on my door and one went through, ricocheted right here through my wrist. can't get it out yet, because it's a piece of metal. a two—year—old was amongst those injured. as the authorities broadcast warnings, the public were cleared from this shopping mall. there's something, there are people running through the mall. we're not sure why. we need to see what this is. come on

this is the moment whenjohn mcdonnell paid tribute to the labour leader and the conference delegatess a lively afternoon there? yes, there is obviously huge enthusiasm forjeremy corbyn here and in the hall of course but is question of loyalty will be tested this afternoon because of these votes on the brexit policy that they are still arguing over after all this time. what they are agreed on is they should be another referendum. the question is whether labour goes into a general election saying very clearly which way it would campaign in that referendum. that is what the row will be about later. they are going to try to resolve it later. the chair of the brexit committee is here. john mcdonnell, emma thornbury, diane abbott, the mayor of london, first minister of wales, the leader of the labour party scotland, loads of mps and members encoding delegates here are in favour of us remaining in the european union. we have moved on a long way since last year. people we re long way since last year. people were focused on continuing areas of difference but we are now firmly committed to tha

john mcdonnell has been shadow chancellor for four years now and he has taken some big decisions, decisions set out how the spending will take place the question is whether they are workable, a four—day working week. we are told it is not a cap, but about trying to encourage people to do it. they will love the sound of that, but also wonder how you can make it work. a shorter working week with the same money? there is a consensus i'iow with the same money? there is a consensus now coming with the same money? there is a consensus now coming about the economy being broken and the financial times saying that we need to be set to capitalism. this is not just a left platform. this is getting support from different sections in the economy and society. and it is radical, but i think that we cannot afford to not provide free ca re we cannot afford to not provide free care for over 65. we cannot afford to continue to work people into the ground in the wages and poverty pay. we need a change in this country and thatis we need a change in this country and that is why the labour party is putting forwar
