Tonight a Syrian refugee who moved to Britain on trial for sexual | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
assault. Newsnight has followed him and his family for a year and is | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
with them as the verdict comes through. Join me on | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
The First Minister has told BBC Scotland she feels she may | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
have a "duty" to call a second independence referendum. | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
Nicola Sturgeon said the UK that Scots endorsed in 2014 no longer | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
existed because of the vote to leave the European Union. | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
This from our political editor Brian Taylor. | :00:33. | :00:33. | |
Nicola Sturgeon at her party conference in Glasgow, | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
She's got the numbers, as the party's business convenor | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
It's the biggest party political conference in the UK. | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
She's got a trusted new deputy, Angus Robertson MP won outright | :00:45. | :01:05. | |
We are very, very close to independence. | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
Scotland voted to Remain in the EU while the wider UK voted Leave. | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
That might trigger an independence referendum, but does it push | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
She accused right-wing Tories of distorting the Brexit vote. | :01:18. | :01:28. | |
The rampant right-wing of the party is using it as a licence | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
for the xenophobia that has long lain under the surface, | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
She delighted delegates with this strictly limited pledge. | :01:34. | :01:47. | |
I can confirm today that the Independence Referendum | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
Bill will be published for consultation next week. | :01:50. | :01:51. | |
The real substance came when he she promise to produce | :01:52. | :02:02. | |
proposals to maintain Scotland's EU links while within the UK. | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
She challenged the Prime Minister to back that approach. | :02:06. | :02:07. | |
If you think, for one single second, that I am not serious about doing | :02:08. | :02:17. | |
what it takes to protect Scotland's interests, | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
Around the hall there is no shortage of advice. | :02:20. | :02:35. | |
I think in actual fact we are probably over the line | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
in terms of the percentage we need already. | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
It depends on when we are likely to win it. | :02:41. | :02:49. | |
I don't think we're ready for another referendum. | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
It won't be tomorrow, but as soon as possible. | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
For Nicola Sturgeon, there are political, | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
She told me there was more to it than that. | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
To protect the open, progressive, international Scotland that I think | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
most people want us to be, then, at that point, | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
perhaps there is a duty to allow people to make that choice. | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
A sense of duty which may yet prompt a second independence referendum. | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
But Nicola Sturgeon is not there yet. | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
A two-year-old girl has died and her brother and sister have | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
been seriously injured, after being struck as they walked | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
along a pavement after two cars collided on a road. | :03:37. | :03:38. | |
The accident happened this afternoon on the A94 | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
It's understood that the little girl died shortly afterwards. | :03:41. | :03:50. | |
Her brother and sister were taken to hospital in Dundee. | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
The A94 remains closed for investigations and police have | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
appealed to anyone who can help their inquiries to contact them. | :03:56. | :04:09. | |
A woman has died after being involved in a collision on the A9 at | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
around 7:20pm this evening. The NSPCC, a leading children's | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
charity, has reported a significant increase in the number of calls it's | :04:18. | :04:19. | |
receiving about neglect or abuse which are serious enough | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
to be referred to police I spoke to Reevel Alderson, | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
our Social Affairs Correspondent, earlier and asked him | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
what's been happening? The NSPCC has a 24-hour helpline | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
for people who have concerns about children being either | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
neglected or abused. Just three are years ago | :04:33. | :04:42. | |
there were just under If we look into these figures, | :04:43. | :04:54. | |
we can see almost 400 referrals about physical abuse, | :04:55. | :05:07. | |
we can see almost 200 concerns about sexual abuse and 800 referrals | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
because people are concerned That's a 61% increase over | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
the past three years. You might think that the charity | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
would be concerned about these Calls to our helpline have increased | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
by 58% from 2012-13. That might sound like | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
the incidents of child abuse What it shows is that members | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
of the public are more aware of the signs of abuse and are less | :05:33. | :05:41. | |
willing to tolerate and know that they can call us to talk | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
about it and to decide what to do. Is that the reason for the increase | :05:45. | :05:53. | |
in calls to the helpline? The earlier figures I gave | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
you were from 2012-2013. That was the time that | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
the revelations came out We had a number of other | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
high-profile cases involving the abuse of children, | :06:04. | :06:13. | |
particularly with celebrities. Now people have the confidence | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
that their calls, if they make them, Before the charity says people | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
might not have phoned because they might have thought, | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
"What if I'm wrong?" Now they're thinking, | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
"What if I'm right?" Rail chiefs have insisted they're | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
fully committed to the future of rail services north of Inverness, | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
after campaigners voiced concerns that the route | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
could be under threat. But ScotRail argue that they're | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
pouring millions into the far north The train leaves Inverness, | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
passengers going all the way facing That's twice as long | :06:40. | :06:47. | |
as it would take by road. Breakdowns and delays can make | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
the trip even more The journey times on this line | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
are now exactly the same That, clearly, doesn't | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
meet our modern needs. Critics condemn the reliability | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
of the rolling stock. The trains are the most unreliable | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
diesel units in Scotland. When they came in 25 years ago, | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
they were poor trains then. ScotRail takes the criticism | :07:14. | :07:15. | |
on the chin. In the depot, trains | :07:16. | :07:24. | |
are being overhauled and a modern and a modern signalling system is | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
about to revolutionise the service. Speeding up journey | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
times is a key ambition. We are looking to increase the line | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
speeds on level crossings. Those actions are happening now | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
and for the next timetable. We are improving the signalling | :07:42. | :07:43. | |
changing to digital. There is a help point here to allow | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
customers to find out Unfortunately, it's either not | :07:51. | :07:58. | |
working or there is no reply. It's just another example about how | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
shortcomings in the infrastructure are putting | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
potential passengers off. People have been voting | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
with their feet. That is at a time when most | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
rail routes in Scotland What we need in place are relatively | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
small improvements to a number of points on the line, | :08:22. | :08:29. | |
costing a relatively small That would transform the journey | :08:30. | :08:31. | |
times and probably knock anything up to 30 to 40 minutes off the time | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
from Wick to Inverness. This route isn't under any immediate | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
threat and the rail operators are spending millions | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
of pounds on improvements. Campaigners welcome that, | :08:45. | :08:45. | |
but say more investment is vital An investigation says the Royal Navy | :08:46. | :08:47. | |
endangered the lives of the crew of a fishing trawler | :08:48. | :09:01. | |
in the Irish Sea in April last year. A submarine from Faslane snagged | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
the nets of the trawler Along the County Down coast, | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
there are villages where fishing is an important industry, | :09:08. | :09:18. | |
but also a dangerous job. Last year, a trawler was damaged | :09:19. | :09:26. | |
in the Irish Sea in an accident that The lives of all four of the crew | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
on board were put in danger I can remember the jaws | :09:31. | :09:40. | |
being pulled back. -- the scene from Jaws | :09:41. | :09:55. | |
where the boat gets pulled back. It dragged it backwards at speed | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
snagging the nets. There was a violent | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
stop to the boat. I thought it must have | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
been a submarine. From then on it was | :10:04. | :10:10. | |
a white knuckle ride. If the crew hadn't released | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
the fishing net and this metal structure that holds | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
them hadn't have broken, the report concludes it's more | :10:16. | :10:17. | |
than likely the trawler It wasn't until five | :10:18. | :10:19. | |
months after the accident that the Royal Navy accepted | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
that their submarine had been The investigators are very critical | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
of the MoD for not providing them with all the evidence they need | :10:27. | :10:38. | |
to conclude why this If you look at the traffic density | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
of fishing vessels in the area at the time of the accident, | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
there is no reason why the submarine should have been proceeding | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
at the speed and depth she was. In a statement, the Royal Navy | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
apologised for the accident, which involved a submarine | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
based at Faslane. It says its reviewing its safety | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
procedures and the authors of the investigation report say | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
that is important if trust is to be built again with those | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
who fish in the Irish Sea. Now the weather outlook | :11:06. | :11:16. | |
for tonight and tomorrow. We started to see a gradual slide | :11:17. | :11:29. | |
into unsettled weather during the course of this week. But we saw some | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
lovely pictures from our weather watchers. This beautiful sky. | :11:34. | :11:41. | |
Overnight, frequent showers across eastern Scotland become more | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
frequent and turning to long spells of rain, particularly towards the | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
northeast. Drier over western areas and brisk winds. Tomorrow morning | :11:51. | :11:57. | |
will start as a windy and wet for the most part, showers becoming more | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
extensive across the north of the country and is a it will feel cool | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
display the temperature feeling quite cold on those brisk, easterly | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
winds, despite temperatures into double figures. Shetland is going to | :12:11. | :12:19. | |
be dry over the next few days with brighter, sunny spells coming | :12:20. | :12:27. | |
through. We will see gales towards Caithness. Tomorrow, things start to | :12:28. | :12:30. | |
ease down with sunny spells coming through and heavy showers across the | :12:31. | :12:38. | |
likes of Grampian and Angus. Some sunshine for the Western Isles and | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
the southwest corner. For the rest of the UK, the few is for Northern | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
Ireland, one to across the North West. There will be cloud feeding | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
into eastern areas, a sign of more rain to come later in the day, | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
temperatures about 12 to 15 Celsius and still the nagging, easterly | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
wind, particularly for eastern coastal areas. The showers will | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
start to pep up as we head through tomorrow night. Friday night into | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
Saturday, a couple of tight isobars mean we will have a wet and indeed | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
start on Saturday and an early one in four Angus but it improved during | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
start on Saturday and an early one the course of the day. | :13:25. | :13:25. | |
Our next update is during Breakfast at 6:25am tomorrow morning. | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
But, from everyone on the late team here in Glasgow | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
and around the country, goodnight. | :13:34. | :13:49. | |
