Hot news from the conference arrangements committee: The list of policies proposed for debate by local Labour parties and the unions has been published.

They are Austerity and Public Services, Britain's Defence Capability (ie Trident), Employment Rights, Europe, Housing, the BBC Licence Fee, Mental Health, NHS, Rail, Refugee Crisis, Social Security and Syria.

Labour members will select the eight issues that will be debated on the conference floor in a vote. The results will be announced at the close of today's business.

The chances are Trident will be one of them and it will be debated tomorrow, which is earmarked for foreign affairs, but we won't know until tomorrow morning if it has got a slot.

Journalists used to cheerfully ignore this stuff because it rarely had any impact on the Labour manifesto - but that has all changed under the new leader.

Tom Watson says the goal is a political culture where leaders take heed of their members. The days of "spin-doctor politics" are gone, and the future looks much "more exciting"..

On nuclear disarmament, Mr Watson, a former defence minister and supporter of Trident, is asked whether he would serve in a cabinet that was dismantling nuclear defences. He responds, saying it was an unfair question and too notional.

Andrew Marr quizzes Jeremy Corbyn - a well known Republican - about his attitude to the Royal Family. He doesn't believe in hereditary leadership, he says, but most people support the Monarchy and campaigning to abolish it is not his top priority.

Mr Corbyn defends Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell's support of insurrection in the streets, when someone threw a fire extinguisher during a student demonstration at Conservative Party headquarters. He says it was "stupid and the wrong thing to do" and he's sure his chancellor agrees. "I think the sentence was disproportionate to the crime he committed," he adds.

The SNP "wear the badge of austerity," says Jeremy Corbyn but he questions "the policy behind it". He says the Scottish government have been responsible for a cuts programme and several privatisations, including ScotRail.

On France's move to bomb inside Syria, Mr Corbyn says his foreign secretary, Hilary Benn, will be making a case in his speech tomorrow.

The danger of involvement is we end up with a proxy way against Russia and others on top of a civil war in Syria, he says

There's got to be a political solution as quickly as possible, he adds.
