the game has claimed he made them up. That's it, goodbye from the BBC

:00:00.:00:00.

News at 6pm, now on BBC One lets join our

:00:00.:00:08.

The Prime Minister wants Holyrood fully engaged in the Brexit

:00:09.:00:12.

negotiations but warns they won't be able to veto the final decision.

The Hibs football manager Neil Lennon says he's

:00:54.:00:54.

Scotland that she wants the Scottish Government

:00:55.:01:16.

to be "fully engaged" in the Brexit talks,

:01:17.:01:18.

but has emphasized that ministers in Edinburgh can have no

:01:19.:01:21.

veto over the process. We will hear from all

the party leaders throughout Ahead of the Conservative Party

conference, the Tory leader's been speaking to our Westminster

:01:27.:01:30.

correspondent, David Porter. One of the consequences of the

:01:31.:01:44.

Brexit vote, a new Prime Minister entering Downing Street with a

:01:45.:01:48.

forthright pledge on the union. The full title of my party is the

:01:49.:01:55.

Conservative and Unionist party, and that word "Unionist" is very

:01:56.:02:00.

important to me. Within days, Theresa May was in Edinburgh

:02:01.:02:04.

visiting the First Minister. As expected, no meeting of minds on

:02:05.:02:07.

politics but an agreement to carry on talking. Now the dust has settled

:02:08.:02:13.

a bit, how will the Prime Minister deal with Brexit and Scotland? Well,

:02:14.:02:19.

the negotiations will be for the United Kingdom to conduct with the

:02:20.:02:23.

European Union. I want to ensure that we hear from all parts of the

:02:24.:02:28.

UK, from the Scottish Government, that we engage with them on the

:02:29.:02:31.

issues that particularly matter to Scotland. But what is crucial is

:02:32.:02:35.

that I'm determined we will make a success of this and really clear

:02:36.:02:39.

that we will make opportunities for the whole of the UK as we leave the

:02:40.:02:44.

European Union. We must grasp those opportunities, but I also want to be

:02:45.:02:47.

a government that works for everyone, not a privileged few. That

:02:48.:02:51.

means ensuring the benefits of economic growth are spread across

:02:52.:02:58.

the UK. There can be no Scottish veto? The United Kingdom will have a

:02:59.:03:02.

position in the negotiations and as the United Kingdom government we

:03:03.:03:04.

will negotiate with the European Union. But we will listen to and

:03:05.:03:08.

take account of the particular concerns of Scotland and other parts

:03:09.:03:12.

of the UK, and we want to ensure crucially that the benefits we are

:03:13.:03:16.

able to achieve from the deal we get with the European Union, from the

:03:17.:03:19.

opportunities that will open up outside the EU in the rest of the

:03:20.:03:24.

world, will be spread across the UK. Of course, it all plays into the

:03:25.:03:29.

wider Scottish independence debate. On this, the Prime Minister is

:03:30.:03:34.

resolute. There are two questions about a second referendum in

:03:35.:03:38.

Scotland. One, could there be? That is a process issue. I think the real

:03:39.:03:43.

question is should there be a second referendum in Scotland? My answer is

:03:44.:03:47.

no. I continue to believe Scotland is better off as part of the United

:03:48.:03:52.

Kingdom. I think that is important. People talk about what is going to

:03:53.:03:55.

happen in terms of leaving the European Union for Scotland's trade

:03:56.:04:01.

with Europe, but actually their trade with the rest of the UK, the

:04:02.:04:05.

economic importance of Scotland being part of the UK far overwhelms

:04:06.:04:11.

that. If Nicola Sturgeon came to you and said, I am planning to hold a

:04:12.:04:17.

second referendum. Would you say to Westminster, tell them they can't do

:04:18.:04:22.

it? I think there should not be a second referendum in Scotland. I

:04:23.:04:25.

continue to believe Scotland is better off as part of the United

:04:26.:04:29.

Kingdom, and I believe passionately in the strong union there has been

:04:30.:04:33.

between Scotland and the rest of the United Kingdom for so long. Our

:04:34.:04:38.

history, the economic ties that we have, I want Scotland to remain part

:04:39.:04:44.

of the UK. Brexit is the dominant issue in the Prime Minister's in

:04:45.:04:45.

tray. As the Conservative and issue in the Prime Minister's in

:04:46.:04:51.

Unionist party, to give it its full title, gathers for its conference in

:04:52.:04:54.

Birmingham, how it impacts on Scotland is also sure to be a major

:04:55.:04:55.

talking point. And a reminder that we'll hear

:04:56.:05:00.

from all the party leaders Brian, we heard that

:05:01.:05:03.

line about consulting Scotland again there,

:05:04.:05:10.

but what does it actually amount to? Politics is on pause to an extent

:05:11.:05:22.

while we try to get the details of what wrecks it actually means beyond

:05:23.:05:27.

simply saying that Brexit means Brexit. It was perhaps

:05:28.:05:31.

understandable that the tenor of the Prime Minister's remarks again, to

:05:32.:05:34.

some degree said nothing in particular but saying it awfully

:05:35.:05:39.

well. What she did say was with regard to the status of the Scottish

:05:40.:05:44.

Government in the negotiations. They will have an active, participate to

:05:45.:05:48.

reroll in drawing up the terms of the UK's engagement with the

:05:49.:05:51.

European Union. They will have an active role in advancing such issues

:05:52.:05:55.

as the single market and freedom of movement. But Theresa May is making

:05:56.:05:58.

clear that from her perspective they will be consulted with, engaged

:05:59.:06:03.

with, but that it is the UK Government which will go shape with

:06:04.:06:07.

the EU on the UK's departure as a whole from the EU. Down the line,

:06:08.:06:12.

that could present the Scottish Government with a conundrum. Do they

:06:13.:06:18.

cry foul and thereby call a second independence referendum, or do they

:06:19.:06:21.

opt for caution and bank what they can obtain from this process of the

:06:22.:06:22.

UK's involvement in Brexit? A Scottish boxer is in a critical

:06:23.:06:27.

condition in hospital this evening, after being injured

:06:28.:06:30.

in a fight in Glasgow. Mike Towell was stretchered

:06:31.:06:32.

from the ring during The event was being broadcast live

:06:33.:06:33.

on television at the time. The fight was against Dale Evans in

:06:34.:06:56.

Glasgow last night. The Dundee boxer was undefeated going into the fight,

:06:57.:07:01.

but the 25-year-old was knocked down in the first round and again in the

:07:02.:07:07.

fifth, before the fight was stopped. The event at the hotel was organised

:07:08.:07:12.

by the St Andrews sporting club. They say their thoughts and prayers

:07:13.:07:18.

are with the box and his family. The club director and Mike Towell's

:07:19.:07:21.

manager travelled with him in the ambulance to the hospital and spent

:07:22.:07:27.

the night by his bedside. The event was then suspended. I know he is a

:07:28.:07:31.

good fighter and he can punch like myself. It was either going to be

:07:32.:07:36.

him or me, but nobody ever wants to see someone stretchered out of the

:07:37.:07:40.

ring and I hope he is all right. The referee was also in charge of this

:07:41.:07:45.

British middleweight title fight in March between Chris Eubank Junior

:07:46.:07:48.

and Nick Blackwell, in which Blackwell suffered a bleed in the

:07:49.:07:53.

skull, ending his career. That fight, and about last night, raised

:07:54.:07:57.

questions about the safety of the sport, but it is being defended. The

:07:58.:08:03.

way boxing is run, the medics in the game, the British board of boxing

:08:04.:08:07.

control do a fantastic job, as they do in amateur boxing. I believe

:08:08.:08:13.

boxing is a relatively safe sport. Mike Towell's family remain with him

:08:14.:08:16.

at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, where he is still in critical

:08:17.:08:18.

condition. One of Scotland's highest profile

:08:19.:08:20.

football managers says his time working in England has convinced

:08:21.:08:22.

there is corruption in the game. But Neil Lennon, currently manager

:08:23.:08:25.

of Hibernian says he's not aware of a culture of illicit payments

:08:26.:08:27.

in Scottish football. He was speaking after former

:08:28.:08:30.

Scotland international Eric Black was filmed allegedly offering advice

:08:31.:08:33.

on how to bribe coaching staff Inside this hotel in the south-west

:08:34.:08:51.

of England, the Daily Telegraph covertly filmed Southampton's

:08:52.:08:55.

Assistant manager, Eric Black, talking to an undercover reporter.

:08:56.:08:59.

It alleges he named staff at English clubs who could be paid to pass on

:09:00.:09:03.

information about players to the company the reporter says she

:09:04.:09:04.

represents. It could be there. It is. That will

:09:05.:09:30.

win the cup. Eric Black. Eric Black made his name as a player at

:09:31.:09:34.

Aberdeen. He denies suggesting any football officials should be paid,

:09:35.:09:39.

saying his comment related to a freelance scout and agency might

:09:40.:09:44.

approach. One Scots -based manager says his time as a player and

:09:45.:09:47.

England leaves him in little doubt that corruption is present in being

:09:48.:09:52.

this game. There have been rumours for a long time about high profile

:09:53.:10:00.

people. Sometimes mud sticks. Eric might be completely innocent so I

:10:01.:10:04.

would not want to pass comment on it, but there has been a lot of talk

:10:05.:10:08.

for a long time about what has been going on. But he says he is unaware

:10:09.:10:13.

of a problem in this country. This summer, Kilmarnock sign 17 players.

:10:14.:10:17.

Their manager, who has also worked in England, says that he makes sure

:10:18.:10:23.

deals are properly conducted. I identify a player, speak to him

:10:24.:10:27.

regarding the football side, but leave everything else down to the

:10:28.:10:30.

people above in terms of sorting out transfer fees if a fee is needed,

:10:31.:10:37.

salary, etc, the whole financial package. That is dealt with by other

:10:38.:10:42.

people which makes it easier for me. Wildly in the chef a Investec 's

:10:43.:10:46.

claims made against Eric Black, the BBC understands there have been no

:10:47.:10:50.

complaints made to the Scottish Football Association about managers

:10:51.:10:54.

or coaches breaching laws in this country.

:10:55.:10:56.

The Scottish Government has written to the Home Secretary,

:10:57.:10:58.

urging her to sign protocols to allow British police to remain

:10:59.:11:01.

part of the European crime-fighting agency, Europol.

:11:02.:11:02.

The Justice Secretary says if the end-of-year deadline isn't

:11:03.:11:04.

met, it could seriously hamper Police Scotland's ability to gather

:11:05.:11:08.

information and intelligence overseas.

:11:09.:11:12.

Amber Rudd says she's looking to continue some

:11:13.:11:14.

How long should an ambulance take to arrive after a 999 call?

:11:15.:11:22.

The answer for the most serious cases is under eight minutes.

:11:23.:11:25.

But the Scottish Ambulance Service is only making that target 67%

:11:26.:11:29.

It's now proposing to change the way calls are prioritised.

:11:30.:11:35.

It says the evidence shows that appropriate

:11:36.:11:37.

treatment is more important than the speed of response.

:11:38.:11:40.

A critical 999 call should mean an emergency response within eight

:11:41.:11:56.

minutes right across the country. The service has been struggling to

:11:57.:12:01.

meet its target, to get to 75% of calls on time. The changes will mean

:12:02.:12:05.

certain call-outs, such as some chest pains or head injuries, will

:12:06.:12:10.

be downgraded. It means crews can have longer to attend. A life or

:12:11.:12:15.

death situation, like someone choking, needs a was bumped as fast

:12:16.:12:20.

as possible. But perhaps someone with chest pain, symptoms of a heart

:12:21.:12:24.

attack, they would still get a blue light ambulance, but in fact a few

:12:25.:12:27.

minutes extra to get the right vehicle to them with the right

:12:28.:12:29.

people on board to take them to hospital so that they can have

:12:30.:12:33.

further care is much more important to get the right vehicle than to

:12:34.:12:36.

have them responded to within a very short period of time. The pilot

:12:37.:12:42.

comes after a full review of clinical data. It has been supported

:12:43.:12:45.

by charities such as the British Heart Foundation. Targets were first

:12:46.:12:52.

set in the 1970s. Back then, it was very much scoop and run, get someone

:12:53.:12:57.

to hospital as soon as possible. But so much has changed. There were no

:12:58.:13:01.

paramedics in the 1970s, but now one is likely to arrive in a car, bike

:13:02.:13:07.

or ambulance. Calls to the Ambulance Service have increased by over 50%

:13:08.:13:11.

in the last eight years. It will be up to the handlers to sift calls and

:13:12.:13:16.

decide the appropriate response. The Ambulance Service say the system

:13:17.:13:19.

will not stop help arriving quickly but is about identifying the right

:13:20.:13:22.

type of response rather than focusing on speed. Targets are only

:13:23.:13:30.

about time of arrival. We are trying to seek a system which improves

:13:31.:13:35.

patient outcomes. This is concentrated on the patient, not on

:13:36.:13:43.

us hitting a time stop button. The new system follows moves in Wales

:13:44.:13:47.

and parts of England. The pilot will start at the end of the year and

:13:48.:13:49.

will be reviewed in 12 months. Work is underway today

to move the damaged oil rig Transocean Winner

:13:55.:13:56.

on to a semi-submersible ship. The 17,000-tonne structure was blown

:13:57.:13:58.

ashore onto the west side Our reporter Angus Macdonald is

:13:59.:14:00.

there for us tonight. The operation started during the

:14:01.:14:18.

night when the rig was moved north of the Hawk heavy-lift ship. The

:14:19.:14:22.

hawk itself was ballasted down until it looks like an abandoned

:14:23.:14:25.

shipwreck, waiting for the Transocean Winner to be floated over

:14:26.:14:30.

and positioned above its submerged deck. But although the wind has been

:14:31.:14:36.

relatively moderate, the seas still had some surprises from the North.

:14:37.:14:41.

This gives you some idea of the size of the operation. The heavy-lift

:14:42.:14:45.

ship is in the foreground and the Transocean Winner is some distance

:14:46.:14:49.

in the background. They have to get it onto the deck, but at the moment

:14:50.:14:53.

the size of the swell is making it difficult. The weather is very

:14:54.:14:57.

changeable but by this time tomorrow it will be clear whether it will go

:14:58.:15:03.

in this weather window, or stay until the next break in the weather.

:15:04.:15:08.

If we find ourselves in the same position tomorrow we will have to

:15:09.:15:11.

make a decision, and that might be to put it back onto the anchors,

:15:12.:15:15.

because we are anticipating bad weather coming through at the

:15:16.:15:17.

beginning of next week and we would have to have it secured by that

:15:18.:15:19.

time. A jury has been told that the man

for a festival in Ayrshire. It could soon become impossible

:16:31.:16:44.

for Scottish clubs to reach the Champions League,

:16:45.:16:47.

if proposed reforms go through. That's the view of the chairman of

:16:48.:16:49.

the European Professional Football Lars-Christer Olsson,

:16:50.:16:52.

a former general secretary of Uefa, says plans to change

:16:53.:16:59.

the qualification criteria for European competition

:17:00.:17:00.

will lead to a "closed shop". The Champions League returned to

:17:01.:17:17.

Celtic Park this week after an almost three-year absence. For many

:17:18.:17:20.

supporters such nights are the highlight of the season but for how

:17:21.:17:25.

much longer? European football 's governing body has announced changes

:17:26.:17:29.

which mean the top four weeks, Spain, Germany, England and Italy

:17:30.:17:34.

will lead chav four guaranteed places in the Champions League.

:17:35.:17:37.

Opponents believe it's the first step in the squeezing out clubs in

:17:38.:17:41.

smaller leagues. Do you see a scenario where it becomes almost

:17:42.:17:45.

impossible for clubs like Celtic to compete with the elite and get to

:17:46.:17:50.

these competitions? Yes, definitely one of the results. The other is

:17:51.:17:55.

that it has a tremendous effect also on a domestic level because you are

:17:56.:18:00.

playing for qualification to the international competitions and

:18:01.:18:03.

that's important in every country, big or small. Key to Celtic

:18:04.:18:09.

successful qualification this season was the champions route, a format

:18:10.:18:12.

which ensures the champions of smaller leagues get, in theory, and

:18:13.:18:18.

easier draw. That is safe until 2021 but maybe not beyond. As soon as you

:18:19.:18:22.

remove that access, you might still get prize money and domestic glory

:18:23.:18:27.

of being champions of Scotland but if you're not getting access to

:18:28.:18:30.

Europe then a big part of what it means to be champions of Scotland is

:18:31.:18:36.

removed. Retaining that is vital. My fear is that united and put as much

:18:37.:18:42.

pressure now only way far as we can that we will end up sleepwalking

:18:43.:18:46.

into a closed shop. The danger is that could spell the end of nights

:18:47.:18:50.

like these at Celtic Park or anywhere else in Scotland. There has

:18:51.:18:54.

to be opportunities for clubs like Celtic, one of the great clubs of

:18:55.:18:59.

world football, there has to be an opportunity for them to be in this

:19:00.:19:04.

competition. I think the competition is better for a club like Celtic

:19:05.:19:09.

being in it. Of course you have to earn the right to be there, qualify,

:19:10.:19:14.

but it should not be made almost impossible. The threat of being on

:19:15.:19:18.

the outside looking in at a future version of the Champions League is

:19:19.:19:21.

an ominous prospect but a real one nonetheless.

:19:22.:19:24.

An African waterfall and a species of gazelle are named after him,

:19:25.:19:27.

and his exploits inspired the classic adventure story

:19:28.:19:29.

Thomson led several expeditions to Africa and, as Willie Johnston

:19:30.:19:49.

reports, new links are being forged between the Maasai people

:19:50.:19:51.

From the sun washed plains of tenure to mission shrouded hills, their

:20:03.:20:08.

about the type of grass. He says the cattle here and how they are reared

:20:09.:20:13.

are very different as well. He looks as incongruous as the man whose

:20:14.:20:17.

:20:31.:20:39.

things which stands out which I think my community still remembers

him for is his humbleness, he went through the land and avoided

:20:47.:20:51.

confrontation with anybody, with the community and anyone along the way.

:20:52.:20:57.

His motto, he who goes gently goes safely and he who goes safely goes

:20:58.:21:01.

far in capital is his way of doing things. He did not go blundering in

:21:02.:21:08.

all guns blazing, he was willing to be patient and negotiate his way
