by Germaine Greer that transwomen aren't really women as "outmoded, | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
outdated and outrageous". You can also watch | :02:13. | :02:18. | |

by talking about an issue that you tell us is incredibly important to | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
you - planned cuts to tax credits. The Government is facing | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
a possible defeat in the House It's estimated around three million | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
families could, on average, be more But the Government maintains | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
the cuts should be seen as part of a package of measures | :02:45. | :02:52. | |
which includes a higher minimum wage Today the House | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
of Lords could vote to reject the A motion tabled by Lib Dem Peers, | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
could kill The Government has been under | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
growing pressure to back down over plans to introduce | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
the cuts in April next year. Here's Jim Reed on how much people | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
can get under the current system. Tax credits were New Labour's baby. | :03:17. | :03:36. | |
There are two main types. First child tax credit. Now claimed by | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
four million families. ?140 odd that is the money we need to feed our | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
kids and clothe our kids. Fair enough if you have partners, send | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
them out to work. If you're a single parent with three children that | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
needs to be looked after and cared for and I'm the only person to do | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
it, it is going to destroy me. It wouldn't put it past me if it drove | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
me nuts. Calculating tax credits is complex. But familiar clis get more | :04:09. | :04:17. | |
than more than ?3 thousand 3,000 for their first children. Very | :04:18. | :04:24. | |
important. Very important. We couldn't survive without tax | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
credits. Without income support, couldn't support. If they cut them | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
back further? Then I will have to do something and try and get money | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
somehow. I don't know how. Next work tax credit, paid to low income | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
workers. Again it is complex and depends on whether you have | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
children. But if you're working full-time on the minimum wage you | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
get an extra ?1,300 a year in credits, plus child care costs. I | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
get work and family tax credit. If they stop that, it wouldn't be worth | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
working, I would be worse off. At the moment I get help with my rent. | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
If they stop that, the wages I get for 20 hours would just cover my | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
rent. So I would have no money. I would be broke. To their supporters | :05:17. | :05:24. | |
tax credits are an important way of getting people out of poverty and | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
into work. Critics say the system is costing ?30 billion a year and | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
should be up to employers to pay a higher wage. More on that in a | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
second. Pausing to bring you this news it is being reported by Reuters | :05:40. | :05:48. | |
that there has been about earthquake in Northern Pakistan, earthquake of | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
7.7 magnitude strikes in Northern Pakistan. That is all the details we | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
have at the moment. An earthquake of 7.7 magnitude in Northern Pakistan. | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
As soon as we have more we will bring it to you. So back to tax | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
credits. Currently, | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
if you earn less than ?6,420 you get the full entitlement of working tax | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
credits, which as Jim said, depends on things like how many hours you've | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
worked and how much you earn. But the income threshold, | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
as it's known, is set to drop to In other words, as soon | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
as someone earns ?3,850, they will The income threshold for those only | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
claiming child tax credits will also The rate at which those payments | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
are cut is also going to get faster Currently, for every ?1 people | :06:36. | :06:49. | |
earn above the threshold, they But from April, | :06:50. | :06:57. | |
the taper rate will go up so people will lose 48p of every | :06:58. | :07:10. | |
pound they earn over the threshold. So how much are people | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
going to lose? It's thought around 3.2 million | :07:14. | :07:15. | |
families will be around ?1,300 worse off under the new changes, but it'll | :07:16. | :07:17. | |
differ from person to person - Labour - | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
in the form of Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell - are making | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
the Chancellor, George Osborne, I know what a U-turn looks like and | :07:26. | :07:35. | |
how it can damage you, but we need a U-turn on this one and I have said | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
to him look, if you can change your mind on this, we will not make any | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
political capital out of it. If the Lords throw this out and put it back | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
to government I have said if you change your mind, bring back a | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
policy in which people are protected we will not in any way attack you | :07:54. | :07:55. | |
for that. N we will support you. And George Osborne isn't short of | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
suggestions from Labour politicians. He agrees with the Chancellor | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
on cutting the tax credit bill, Under his proposal, people would get | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
the full whack of tax credit money if they earn just under five grand, | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
rather than the Government's figure He also wants to increase the rate | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
at which tax credits are clawed back from people earning above 13 grand | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
a year - or about what you get I'm not against the reform, but | :08:24. | :08:36. | |
clearly tax credits are here to stay for much longer than the Government | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
initially thought and this would be a really good point of in a sense | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
recasting tax credits so you can take people out at the top income | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
bands, but protect people at the bottom. | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
There will be a vote in the House of Commons about his plan on Thursday. | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
Before that though, there's another hurdle to get over. | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
In the Lords today the Labour Peer Baroness Hollis has also put forward | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
an amendment, which could force the Government to delay the cuts. | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
They'll also vote on what's called a "fatal motion". | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
It's a rarely-used tactic that's been tabled by the Lib Dems that | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
The Education Secretary, Nicki Morgan had this warning | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
I think the House of Lords should be clear it is a revising chamber. | :09:15. | :09:29. | |
Often they make good points, but they're striking down 70% of vote | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
they have, they have made it more difficult for us op child care. That | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
is one thing people want to see us deliver our pledge. Without going | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
into specifics, what you're saying to the House of Lords is be careful | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
and think about your much v future. Future. They should be careful. I | :09:49. | :10:01. | |
want to bring you more about the news that a powerful weak has been | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
felt in Northern Pakistan. The earthquake had a magnitude of 7.7 | :10:08. | :10:17. | |
and it has been felt in Islamabad and New Delhi. That is all the | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
detail we have at the moment. A strong earthquake in Pakistan. | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
Reuters are saying it had a magnitude of 7.7. | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
We can now speak to Conservative MP Nadhim Zahawi who supports cuts | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
to tax credits, Conservative MP Stephen McPartland, who is against | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
the Government's plans. Labour Peer Baroness Hollis who put | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
forward a motion to delay the introduction the changes and | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
Janette Hollis, a mum of six who will be affected by the changes. | :10:44. | :10:53. | |
-- Janet Davy. With all the changes the Chancellor is making, tax credit | :10:54. | :11:01. | |
changes and raising the threshold before people start paying tax. | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
Taking that into account. And a 30 hours a week child care and tax free | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
child care. If you have children. The Chancellor said two in ten | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
working families will be worse off. Two in ten working families will be | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
worse off. How this a fair? Well, you're looking at it the other way | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
eight of ten will be better off. There is one thing that will be | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
difficult to model, which is the Chancellor, the first Conservative | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
Chancellor to come up with a national living wage. No, no, I'm | :11:36. | :11:43. | |
not going to be diverted. Taking all the changes into account, two in ten | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
people will be worse off. How do you justify that? By saying it is eight | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
of ten people will be better off. It is tough? Let me give you this quick | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
sort of what is happening on the ground example. What is happening on | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
the ground is that two in ten work people who get up every day and go | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
to work, you a Conservative government that claims to be on the | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
side of hard working family, them be poorer. What is happening on the | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
ground is people like Morrissons and Liddle have followed the Chancellor | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
and said we will raise wages now. That is not model. Despite that two | :12:23. | :12:29. | |
in ten people will be worse off. That is not modelled. The two in | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
tennis from modelling. I'm using the Chancellor's figures. The economy is | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
responding and you have to believe me Alistair Darling. The former | :12:44. | :12:50. | |
Labour Chancellor. I'm going with the Conservative Chancellor and | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
you're ignoring it. No I'm saying eight out of ten people will be | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
better off. An average family. How this a a consolation to the two in | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
ten that will be worse off? We have to take some tough decisions. How | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
this a a consolation to them. It is not. But we have to save 4.4 | :13:10. | :13:16. | |
billion. You don't have to do it. We can cut nurses and funding of | :13:17. | :13:25. | |
schools. You could not inheritance tax, you could introduce a sugar | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
tax. You have made a choice to make work bg people worse off. No we have | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
made a choice to create an economy that will be high wage and lower | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
welfare and lower tax. The personal allowance going up to 12 and a half | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
thousand creating that economy. That is the, it is philosophical | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
argument, what sort of country do you want to live? One where | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
employers use the excuse of tax credits to suppress wages or where | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
employers pay the national living wage. Are you in denial? No, I have | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
said eight out of ten families will be better off. We have to make tough | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
decisions. There is nothing decent about crashing an economy and taxing | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
people too much. It is moral to make people who work poorer? People who | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
don't earn much will be hurt badly if we are irresponsible and crash | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
the economy. What would you say to him? It is gobsmacking, the comments | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
that are coming out that eight out of ten people will be better off. | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
That is great. Businesses can they afford that living wage? That is a | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
huge consideration? There are small businesses that employ just a few | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
individuals by upping that living wage, can they afford to keep people | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
on or will we have more unemployed people. How would you be affected by | :14:52. | :14:59. | |
the changes? I have find an extra hundred pound a work and I already | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
work every hour I can. I can't work any more. So I would like him to | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
have a look at what I do, have a look at my budget and see where I'm | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
going to find a hundred pound a month from. It is not possible me | :15:14. | :15:22. | |
and many others. Do you have any idea where she should get that extra | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
hundred pounds. I don't know the edill details. I don't know how many | :15:29. | :15:35. | |
children she has. Six. You have two hundred pound, the tax free child | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
care amount, ?2,000. 30 hours of child care we have increased from 10 | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
to 30. Have you taken into account. The 30 free hours it not available. | :15:48. | :15:55. | |
The figures don't go together. 30 hour is for three and four-year-old, | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
what about the two-year-old I have to pay child care for? | :16:01. | :16:09. | |
It is going to be much harder if we don't do anything and if we borrow | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
too much and tax too much. What are the choices? Do we cut nurses and | :16:16. | :16:25. | |
doctors or education? Baroness Hollis why would it be OK for the | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
unelected Lords to delay or scrap what the elected House of Commons | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
has voted on on a couple of times? Yes, what we're doing is seeking to | :16:35. | :16:42. | |
delay the effect of these cuts so that we give existing families | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
protection against them. These cuts would only apply to new claimants | :16:49. | :16:54. | |
tax credits and as people move over to Universal Credit which the | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
Government thinks they will all have done by 2020 the cuts will be fully | :17:00. | :17:05. | |
in play and the Government will make its full savings, but the key thing | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
about tax credits is if you are a lone parent with children and having | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
to work reduced hours, the Living Wage is great, but it is not enough | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
to live on. You need some Income Support on top for a while until | :17:23. | :17:24. | |
actually you don't need it anymore. Now... Would you be bullied by the | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
Government? No. What about the cross-benchers who have no | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
allegiance to a particular party? Have they been coming under | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
pressure? They have. In what way? They have been strong armed and told | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
this is a constitutional crisis which is a fig leaf. What we're | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
doing with this is seeking to ask the Chancellor to produce | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
transitional protection for existing families and as wages rise, tax | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
credits which are means-tested fall. As people move over to UC, tax | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
credits and under UC cuts will come into play. The Government will make | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
its savings. You will have heard the Education Secretary say the | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
Chancellor is in long mode yesterday. Might that stop peers | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
voting either against the changes or to delay them? What would happen | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
tonight, I hope, if they support the motion to give a delay in order to | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
give transitional protection, it gives the Chancellor the breathing | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
space to come back with his, I hope, mitigations. If they don't support | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
that, this statutory instrulment is law tonight and Janet will feel the | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
experience of it. Steve McPart land tell your colleague why you have | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
voted against your own Government on this? I understand and I am the | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
first to say the tax credits need to be reformed. We're spending ?30 | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
billion a year on them. They have gone out of control. ?1 billion is | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
lost in fraud, but my concern is around those people who aren't going | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
to benefit from the changes and positive aspects that the Chancellor | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
has announced the so for me, I have used the example of a Teaching | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
Assistant hold be earning ?11,000 a year and if he or she doesn't have a | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
three or four-year-old child she will not benefit from the free | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
childcare. They can't benefit from the increases in personal tax | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
allowances because they don't earn enough. I want to focus the debate | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
on those people who were going to because of the reduction in the | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
income threshold, receive a ?1200 cut and for me, for Teaching | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
Assistant to be losing 10% of their income, and have no ability to make | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
that up anywhere else is just too much for me. So the Chancellor has | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
to come forward with some mitigation and I am continuing to speak out | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
until he does come forward with that mitigation. Do you think that's | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
likely to happen? I believe at the Autumn Statement he will come out | :19:44. | :19:45. | |
and he will mitigate for the families on the lowest incomes | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
because at the end of the day, the Labour Party have left these | :19:49. | :19:50. | |
families behind. These are the families we need to be reaching out | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
to. They got up, they go to work, they are trying and there has to be | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
reform of the tax credit system. But there has to be a fairer way of | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
doing it. Let me read a couple of messages from people watching you | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
discuss this around the country. Derek says, "Shame on anyone who | :20:07. | :20:10. | |
voted on the tax credit cuts." Another e-mail says, "While the | :20:11. | :20:12. | |
Conservatives are continuing to punish the poor. I was not put on | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
this planet to make George Osborne's spread sheet look good." Janet, you | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
may have heard this before, why should a single parent feel she has | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
a right to have her children fed and clothed by me? Don says, "Have | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
unlimited children. Don't worry. The rest of us will pay for it. " | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
Another says, "Your guest chose to have six children, her choice, why | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
should my taxes fund them?" When I decided to have six children, I was | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
married and I was a full-time teacher and we had a joint income of | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
?60,000 and we were not using tax credits, we were well off and I was | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
running a business part-time and unfortunately things happen and | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
situations change as a result, I am a single-parent, I never planned to | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
be being married for 20 years and could afford them. And that's what | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
the welfare system is for, it is for when you're in situations that are | :21:08. | :21:10. | |
beyond your control and you need that little bit of assistance, not | :21:11. | :21:13. | |
forever, this is a short-term thing until my children are that little | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
bit older. I have worked since we split up, I had a baby three weeks | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
after we split up, and I wept back to work when he was a few weeks old, | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
working on my business. I work two or three businesses at the moment. | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
I'm also employed. I work every hour as a single parent to bring my | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
children up in the best way that I What would your can. Message to | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
George Osborne be if he were sitting here what, would you say to him? I | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
would say, I understand that the country needs to make cuts. However, | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
you are cutting it not from people who are not working, you are cutting | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
from working people. You say work pays and yet those of us who are | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
working from 5am until midnight often, and single parents that are | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
working, every minute they physically can as well as trying to | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
bring up their children into today's society, you are the punishing them, | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
you are not punishing those people who are not working. You can cut | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
other subsidiesment there are corporate subsidies that could be | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
cut. You give millions of pounds to energy companies for example, you | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
give money to film companies such as Disney to make films here. There are | :22:20. | :22:22. | |
cuts you can make without taking it from people who are working every | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
minute that they physically can to bring up their children. Thank you | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
very much Janet. Thank you for coming on the programme. We will | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
report back on what happens in the Lords later today here on BBC News. | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
Some more about the powerful earthquake that struck Northern | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
Pakistan. Initial reports said it had a magnitude of 7.7. It | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
Pakistan. Initial reports said it felt in India and Afghanistan. The | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
latest details are coming in from the AFP News Agency. A strong | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
earthquake lasting almost a minute has been felt in New deli today with | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
buildings shaking in the centre of the Indian capital. Tremors were | :22:58. | :23:06. | |
felt as far away as Islamabad and the Afghan capital, Kabul, but not | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
in neighbouring Nepal. Hundreds of people raced from buildings on to | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
the streets in Delhi while the quake was also felt in the Himalayan | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
region of cashmere. This is according to AFP. A powerful | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
earthquake which struck Northern Pakistan has been felt in India and | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
Afghanistan. Hundreds of people racing from buildings on to the | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
streets in Delhi in India while the quake was also felt in cashmere. | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
More to come on that throughout the programme this morning. | :23:38. | :23:41. | |

The Government is appealing to members of the House of Lords not to | :24:00. | :24:18. | |
Ministers says the unelected Lords would be over reaching themselves if | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
they vote down financial measures approved by MPs. Opponents accuse | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
them of trying to force through are forms without proper scrutiny. A | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
powerful earthquake struck Northern Pakistan including Islamabad and | :24:35. | :24:37. | |
other cities. The quake, which initial report say had a magnitude | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
of 7.7 has been felt in India and Afghanistan. | :24:42. | :24:48. | |

Let's catch up with all the sport now and join Ore. | :25:27. | :25:46. | |
Lewis Hamilton did it after winning a thrilling US Grand Prix in Austin, | :25:47. | :25:54. | |
Texas. Lewis Hamilton wonnist first world title in 2008 and his second | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
last year in 2014. Both the titles went down to the final race. He has | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
three races to go, but he reckons this is his best win so far as it | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
equals the great, the late, Ayrton Senna. We will talk about Lewis | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
Hamilton later on. We will rattle through the sport and England's | :26:13. | :26:15. | |

later in the morning. This news is just coming in. It has been reported | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
by Reuters and they are saying that a Belgium military barracks has been | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
attacked by a gunman and shots have been fired. Those are all the | :26:49. | :26:53. | |
details we have got at this stage. A Belgian military barracks has been | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
attacked by a gunman. Shots have been fired. That's being reported by | :26:58. | :27:00. | |
Reuters. We will bring you more as soon as we have it. | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
Next this morning, is the legal system biased against cyclists | :27:07. | :27:08. | |
Every year around 115 cyclists die in accidents across the UK. | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
Of those that involve a car, only about 50% lead to a driver | :27:13. | :27:15. | |
Now, the man who used to be in charge of all prosecutions is | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
Keir Starmer, who's now a Labour MP, has told this programme cases | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
should automatically be referred to the Crown Prosecution Service to | :27:28. | :27:29. | |
decide whether or not a prosecution should go ahead. | :27:30. | :27:31. | |
At the moment the police can make that decision, but some families | :27:32. | :27:34. | |
have told us too often there's a presumption amongst officers that | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
We asked Anna Tatton-Brown, a BBC journalist who works | :27:38. | :27:43. | |
Her Dad died after he was knocked off his bike | :27:44. | :27:48. | |
The film contains some distressing images. | :27:49. | :27:58. | |
Does the justice system let down cyclists? | :27:59. | :28:02. | |
Why does it seem bike riders killed in accidents on our roads are so | :28:03. | :28:05. | |
A senior lawyer tells us the system consistently fails to | :28:06. | :28:11. | |
The criminal justice system is biassed in favour | :28:12. | :28:15. | |
A top police chief says it's too dangerous to ride regularly | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
If you said to me would I feel safe as a commuter in London, then no, | :28:21. | :28:27. | |
And the former Director of Public Prosecutions suggests | :28:28. | :28:33. | |
If a cyclist is knocked off by a driver of a car or some other | :28:34. | :28:40. | |
vehicle, there is the beginnings of a presumption that it is | :28:41. | :28:43. | |
I'm Anna, and last year my dad died on his bike here in Central London. | :28:44. | :28:56. | |
I am going to take look at whether the families | :28:57. | :28:59. | |
of cyclists who die on our roads are let down by the police, | :29:00. | :29:02. | |
My dad was cycling home this way, up this Central London road, | :29:03. | :29:07. | |
when he was knocked often his bike, right there. | :29:08. | :29:10. | |
He was in hospital in a coma for three weeks, | :29:11. | :29:13. | |
At the inquest into my father's death, the driver | :29:14. | :29:19. | |
She said it was like something falling from the sky. | :29:20. | :29:25. | |
Afterwards, the coroner's verdict was that | :29:26. | :29:27. | |
Society obviously depends on families joining together. | :29:28. | :29:34. | |
Here's my dad, Mick Mason, in happier times at my weddings. | :29:35. | :29:42. | |
He was a gentle, unassuming Geordie, who often had a twinkle in his eye. | :29:43. | :29:45. | |
Dad was an interior designer, until he retrained | :29:46. | :29:47. | |
Cycling was one of the many things he and I bonded over. | :29:48. | :29:54. | |
She was really close to my dad, and was staying with him at the time. | :29:55. | :30:03. | |
Do you remember where you were when you heard about Mick's accident? | :30:04. | :30:06. | |
I'd had a few messages and missed calls off my dad, | :30:07. | :30:13. | |
and when I rung him back, my dad told me he and mum were on | :30:14. | :30:17. | |
the way to the hospital, and Mick had been involved in an accident. | :30:18. | :30:21. | |
I sort of went through the thought of should I stay, should I go, and | :30:22. | :30:25. | |
then it became evident, incredibly clear I should get on a bus and go | :30:26. | :30:30. | |
My family and I had questions about how the police were investigating | :30:31. | :30:36. | |
Potential witnesses weren't chased as we would have liked, and they | :30:37. | :30:42. | |
didn't appear to think about what we were going through as a family. | :30:43. | :30:47. | |
So the key problem with Mick's case seems to be there was no-one that | :30:48. | :30:51. | |
actually saw the moment of collision. | :30:52. | :30:52. | |
Yes, which on Regent Street you would think was a bit strange. | :30:53. | :30:56. | |
Well, given it was 6.15 at night, and people are streaming out | :30:57. | :30:59. | |
of work, out of shops, and quite a lot of people tweeted | :31:00. | :31:02. | |
photos that evening, so I thought there would be loads of witnesses. | :31:03. | :31:08. | |
Considering the main crux of the issue about not being able to | :31:09. | :31:11. | |
To this day, I don't know that they contacted any of the people | :31:12. | :31:17. | |
A leading cycling charity who have helped me told us they have seen | :31:18. | :31:23. | |
dozens of cases like my dad's over the last few years. | :31:24. | :31:27. | |
They said the families of cyclists who die in road accidents often feel | :31:28. | :31:33. | |
disappointed with the way the cases have been dealt with by police, | :31:34. | :31:35. | |
Last year, a BBC Newsbeat investigation got stats | :31:36. | :31:39. | |
These are the figures on the information available to us. | :31:40. | :32:21. | |
The quiet lanes of Kent are very different to | :32:22. | :32:24. | |
the central London street where my dad had his accident. | :32:25. | :32:27. | |
I've come to visit the wife and son of Richard Jordan, who died after | :32:28. | :32:31. | |
Richard was cycling down this hill, with a car coming the other way. | :32:32. | :32:42. | |
The family believe he was knocked off, but at the inquest | :32:43. | :32:52. | |
the police and the coroner said the car didn't cause the accident. | :32:53. | :32:56. | |
The manner of my father's riding was very slow and steady. | :32:57. | :33:00. | |
He did it for pleasure, and to keep fit, and he would go round and stop | :33:01. | :33:04. | |
off at various points to look at the countryside and just relax. | :33:05. | :33:07. | |
I just couldn't believe that he could have just fallen off his bike, | :33:08. | :33:14. | |
There was no cuts, no grazes on him at all. | :33:15. | :33:19. | |
His face was just one massive swelling on the left-hand side. | :33:20. | :33:25. | |
Obviously, he was in a coma, I couldn't talk, | :33:26. | :33:29. | |
And it was just one big sort of puzzle as to what had happened. | :33:30. | :33:39. | |
The Jordans have complained about the police investigation | :33:40. | :33:41. | |
One of their main concerns is about a 999 call made to report | :33:42. | :33:52. | |
During the call, the driver and passenger involved in the | :33:53. | :34:00. | |
accident can be heard talking about whether their car hit Richard. | :34:01. | :34:02. | |
He came off, we hit the bike, we went over the bike. | :34:03. | :34:19. | |
That was what happened, because he just absolutely lost it. | :34:20. | :34:24. | |
The Jordans say the police have never given the call much weight. | :34:25. | :34:27. | |
A witness statement was taken from the driver you heard there, | :34:28. | :34:30. | |
but he was never fully questioned by officers. | :34:31. | :34:33. | |
This is the bike Richard was riding when he died. | :34:34. | :34:37. | |
After the family complained to the police watchdog, known as | :34:38. | :34:40. | |
the IPCC, Kent Police were ordered to explain several key points. | :34:41. | :34:46. | |
First, why police didn't seize the car involved. | :34:47. | :34:51. | |
Why the car was examined just once and only by torchlight. | :34:52. | :34:55. | |
And whether the unqualified investigating | :34:56. | :34:56. | |
The saddle was completely smashed off. | :34:57. | :35:04. | |
The coroner said the way Richard was cycling contributed to his death, | :35:05. | :35:11. | |
but the Jordans still think the police have questions to answer. | :35:12. | :35:13. | |
They've now been waiting over a year for the final report. | :35:14. | :35:18. | |
They've stopped us knowing what happened | :35:19. | :35:21. | |
But we've just no, absolutely no idea how he died of such horrific | :35:22. | :35:30. | |
injuries, and yet they are telling us a car wasn't involved. | :35:31. | :35:33. | |
I got the impression, silly old devil, rode his bike, | :35:34. | :35:40. | |
wasn't concentrating, killed himself, and that was it. | :35:41. | :35:46. | |
In a statement, Kent Police said they were sorry that the family | :35:47. | :35:49. | |
of Richard Jordan did not feel they received the service they deserved | :35:50. | :35:52. | |
All reasonable lines of inquiry are now completed | :35:53. | :35:56. | |
and the investigation into Mr Jordan's death has now been closed. | :35:57. | :36:07. | |
This was the night of my dad's accident. | :36:08. | :36:09. | |
And at this point we weren't giving the | :36:10. | :36:11. | |
But, as time went by, we felt the police were insensitive | :36:12. | :36:17. | |
in the way they dealt with us after the trauma of that night. | :36:18. | :36:26. | |
One officer even asked us if we wondered whether my dad might | :36:27. | :36:29. | |
She is in charge of policing Britain's roads. | :36:30. | :36:33. | |
I would not expect and want any of my officers to do anything other | :36:34. | :36:36. | |
than display empathy for people, and be sensitive to, you know, | :36:37. | :36:42. | |
the context and the environment they're operating in. | :36:43. | :36:46. | |
Clearly, having people that are not necessarily as sensitive | :36:47. | :36:51. | |
as they could and should be is something you don't want to add to | :36:52. | :36:54. | |
So I would say, if that is your experience, | :36:55. | :36:58. | |
then on behalf of policing I would apologise to you for that. | :36:59. | :37:01. | |
She strongly defended how police investigate road deaths, but | :37:02. | :37:06. | |
admitted she personally would have concerns about cycling in London. | :37:07. | :37:11. | |
If you said to me, would I want to commute | :37:12. | :37:15. | |
on a day-to-day basis in London, you know, then, no I wouldn't. | :37:16. | :37:18. | |
It's too busy, there are too many risks. | :37:19. | :37:24. | |
Every day there are a range of people who don't go home | :37:25. | :37:28. | |
It's no surprise to this senior lawyer, who takes | :37:29. | :37:34. | |
a special interest in cycling, and helped with my dad's case. | :37:35. | :37:37. | |
He thinks the attitude of the police is part of the problem. | :37:38. | :37:42. | |
They're looking at cycling as the dangerous activity, and their | :37:43. | :37:46. | |
emphasis, and that of some coroners, is upon whether a cyclist was | :37:47. | :37:51. | |
wearing a crash helmet or hi-vis equipment and so on, rather than on | :37:52. | :37:55. | |
whether those who are driving in the vicinity of vulnerable road | :37:56. | :37:59. | |
users, like cyclists, are taking the appropriate amount | :38:00. | :38:01. | |
A year on from my dad's death we held a vigil. | :38:02. | :38:21. | |
Together with other cyclists, I lay down at the spot where he died. | :38:22. | :38:24. | |
It is called a die-in and happens quite often in London to remember | :38:25. | :38:27. | |
That day police told a journalist they would pass | :38:28. | :38:30. | |
my dad's case to prosecutors, which could lead to a trial. | :38:31. | :38:33. | |
But this changed just four days later, when police again went | :38:34. | :38:36. | |
straight to the journalist, saying the case was actually closed. | :38:37. | :38:39. | |
No-one has ever offered me an explanation as to why they | :38:40. | :38:41. | |
thought it was OK to communicate with a journalist and not me, and it | :38:42. | :38:45. | |
On the anniversary of his death, they're messing us round like this. | :38:46. | :38:51. | |
Keir Starmer is the former Director of Public Prosecutions, | :38:52. | :38:54. | |
and used to make decisions on whether cases passed to him by the | :38:55. | :38:57. | |
He said that system might need to change. | :38:58. | :39:06. | |
I think there's a very strong case for saying where there's a death | :39:07. | :39:09. | |
involved, if it's serious enough to have had a criminal investigation, | :39:10. | :39:11. | |
then it really ought to go off to the CPS for a final decision. | :39:12. | :39:18. | |
Normally, the police investigate a crime and | :39:19. | :39:20. | |
then decide whether to pass it to prosecutors at the CPS, so what he's | :39:21. | :39:23. | |
He also had something to say about road accidents and civil lawsuits. | :39:24. | :39:33. | |
There's been a discussion going on for some time as to whether | :39:34. | :39:38. | |
liability is in the right place, and whether there ought to be some | :39:39. | :39:41. | |
shifting of liability, so if a cyclist is knocked off by a driver | :39:42. | :39:44. | |
of a car, or some other vehicle, that there's the beginnings | :39:45. | :39:47. | |
of a presumption that it's the vehicle that is in the wrong. | :39:48. | :39:50. | |
I think you have to be very careful with this, and I wouldn't want to go | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
to strict liability, where it's automatically thought that one party | :39:55. | :39:56. | |
is at fault, but we may need to start looking again at that balance. | :39:57. | :40:04. | |
I really wanted to talk to the Metropolitan Police | :40:05. | :40:08. | |
about my dad's case, but they sent me a statement instead. | :40:09. | :40:12. | |
We followed all available lines of inquiry in this case. | :40:13. | :40:14. | |
Mr Mason's family has already received a an apology | :40:15. | :40:17. | |
and an explanation for the miscommunication, and we can | :40:18. | :40:19. | |
It is wrong, however, to suggest that the investigators | :40:20. | :40:25. | |
directly inferred or suggested that Mr Mason was in some way responsible | :40:26. | :40:28. | |
My family's experiences aren't unique, | :40:29. | :40:37. | |
and I wonder whether the problem might be a kind of institutional | :40:38. | :40:40. | |
Too often the starting point seems to be whether the cyclist could | :40:41. | :40:44. | |
My family and I still want to know what happened to my dad | :40:45. | :40:49. | |
on that street behind me, and the police aren't taking his case | :40:50. | :40:52. | |
any further, so the only option left to us is a private prosecution. | :40:53. | :40:57. | |
Lawyers acting for us will take on the case without the involvement | :40:58. | :40:59. | |
Now, clearly none of this is going to bring my dad back, but it might | :41:00. | :41:05. | |
get us a bit closer to knowing what happened to him on that night. | :41:06. | :41:11. | |
And if you want to share that film you can find it on our programme | :41:12. | :41:15. | |
page - bbc.co.uk/victoria - and after 10 we'll be speaking to | :41:16. | :41:17. | |
London's Cycling Commissioner about this. | :41:18. | :41:22. | |
Thank you for your comments, one said, is it fair, asking is it a | :41:23. | :41:30. | |
fair report asking a reporter whose dad died from an accident, aren't | :41:31. | :41:35. | |
they biassed? Peter said the current accidental label placed on road | :41:36. | :41:40. | |
death is it inappropriate and not fit for reality. All road deaths | :41:41. | :41:47. | |
should be redefined as the limited punishment for death by dangerous | :41:48. | :41:52. | |
driving is inadequate and can create a licence to kill. All road deaths | :41:53. | :41:59. | |
should be initially prosecuted as murder or manslaughter with a life | :42:00. | :42:06. | |
sentence available. Martin sent this message, cyclists should not be on | :42:07. | :42:09. | |
the main roads at all for safety reasons. This comment too three | :42:10. | :42:15. | |
years today, riding to work this a cycle lane, in daylight in a high | :42:16. | :42:24. | |
vis kit I was hit by a taxi and I need a specialist mouse and keyboard | :42:25. | :42:29. | |
at work. The police were disinterested. And Mur said, I have | :42:30. | :42:36. | |
sympathy for the drivers of vehicles who have to crawl behind cyclists, | :42:37. | :42:42. | |
because in Manchester many cyclists choose to avoid the cycle lanes and | :42:43. | :42:46. | |
ride without thought for their own safety on the roads. Thank you for | :42:47. | :42:53. | |
your vows. Still to come: Lewis Hamilton seals his third F1 World | :42:54. | :42:57. | |
Championship after winning in the United States. And in terms of | :42:58. | :43:04. | |
weather, Louise is here, that this horse cane Patricia -- this | :43:05. | :43:07. | |
hurricane Patricia did affect the Grand Prix. It was an incredible | :43:08. | :43:16. | |
story this hurricane. The most intense hurricane ever now in terms | :43:17. | :43:22. | |
of wind strength and mean wind gust over 200mph. It was incredible. Have | :43:23. | :43:28. | |
you seen this footage across parts of the south of Mexico. It arrived | :43:29. | :43:36. | |
around 6 o'clock their time. Although it was a power storm, the | :43:37. | :43:40. | |
winds were concentrated around six or seven miles and in some ways they | :43:41. | :43:44. | |
were luck y. I use that world lightly. No, you don't. I know what | :43:45. | :43:51. | |
you mean. They arrived in a less pop lated area. But some of the energy | :43:52. | :43:57. | |
moved into Texas, if you were following the Grand Prix, it was | :43:58. | :44:01. | |
incredible the scenes for the practice and they were lucky in the | :44:02. | :44:05. | |
race time the dry weather arrived and the drainage is so good in | :44:06. | :44:11. | |
Texas, they're used to spells of heavy rain and it cleared up | :44:12. | :44:17. | |
quickly. But we had reports of tornadoes close to Houston and parts | :44:18. | :44:24. | |
of New Orleans had 220 millimetres of rain fall, this a double their | :44:25. | :44:29. | |
average for the month. So incredible scenes. Here? Quiet sner Yes. Yes | :44:30. | :44:42. | |
windy but nowhere near those wind strengths. We will see a milder feel | :44:43. | :44:50. | |
with the wind coming from the south. But they will bring some rain as low | :44:51. | :44:55. | |
pressure moves in. Today, it is a benign story, a lot of cloud around, | :44:56. | :45:01. | |
this window of finer weather over the south-east. The thicker rain to | :45:02. | :45:06. | |
the north and west will slowly push in through the latter stages of day. | :45:07. | :45:11. | |
We have rain pushing into the far south-west and the wind | :45:12. | :45:14. | |
strengthening and into Northern Ireland by the middle of day. But a | :45:15. | :45:19. | |
good slice of dry weather. That will be the story as we move through the | :45:20. | :45:25. | |
bulk of Scotland, ten or 11 degrees. But look at the rain in Northern | :45:26. | :45:29. | |
Ireland in the middle of afternoon. Clouding over for Wales and the | :45:30. | :45:32. | |
south-west and we will see some rain, but for central and southern a | :45:33. | :45:38. | |
eastern areas drier with temperatures up to 16 degrees. Not | :45:39. | :45:43. | |
bad for this time of year. But the winds will strengthen and the rain | :45:44. | :45:47. | |
will push in from the south-west. Some of it heavy through the night. | :45:48. | :45:50. | |
Particularly across Cornwall and into Wales and it will be sitting | :45:51. | :45:56. | |
there tomorrow. Ahead of it a blanket of cloud. A mild night. We | :45:57. | :46:01. | |
start off tomorrow with a good slice of dry weather to be found to the | :46:02. | :46:09. | |
north and east. Some early morning mist and fog. And still some rain in | :46:10. | :46:16. | |
the south-west. It will move erratically north and east. If | :46:17. | :46:21. | |
you're ahead of main band of rain it is mild with that southerly winds | :46:22. | :46:25. | |
allowing temperatures of up to 18 degrees. But on the the cloud and | :46:26. | :46:31. | |
wind disappointing. By Wednesday, low pressure dictating the weather a | :46:32. | :46:34. | |
little and that front continues to push north and east and it will take | :46:35. | :46:40. | |
the wind and rain with it. But a disappointing day through Scotland | :46:41. | :46:43. | |
and northern England. Further south mild and bright in the afternoon and | :46:44. | :46:47. | |
highs into the mid to high teens again. So plenty of weather this | :46:48. | :46:52. | |
week and more the same time same place tomorrow. | :46:53. | :46:58. | |
Hello. It's Monday. It's just after 10am. | :46:59. | :46:59. | |
Could red and processed meat really be as dangerous to our health | :47:00. | :47:05. | |
Global health experts are expected to say that in an hour's time. | :47:06. | :47:18. | |
We will have the latest from northern Afghanistan where a | :47:19. | :47:22. | |
powerful earthquake lasting 60 seconds. Struck. Tremors were felt | :47:23. | :47:28. | |
in Pakistan and India. We will be live in Karachi. Calls for all cases | :47:29. | :47:35. | |
where a cyclist is killed by a car to be referred to prosecutors. After | :47:36. | :47:39. | |
Germaine Greer said transgender women aren't really women, the star | :47:40. | :47:48. | |
of Boy Meets Girl tells us her views are outdated, outmoded and | :47:49. | :47:50. | |
outrageous. In sport, Lewis Hamilton is the | :47:51. | :47:54. | |
Formula One world champion for 2015. He is now only the second ever | :47:55. | :47:58. | |
British driver to win three world titles. Back with you in a minute. | :47:59. | :48:10. | |
The Government's facing a possible defeat | :48:11. | :48:14. | |
Critics say that three million families could lose an average | :48:15. | :48:29. | |
of ?1,000 a year because of the changes. | :48:30. | :48:31. | |
It will all be voted on later by the House of Lords. | :48:32. | :48:34. | |
We spoke to Janette Davey, a mum of six, who will be affected | :48:35. | :48:37. | |
I already work every physical hour I can. No one said this is not going | :48:38. | :48:43. | |
to be tough. All I would say is, it is much harder, if we don't do | :48:44. | :48:48. | |
anything, if we allow the deficit to get out of control and if borrow too | :48:49. | :48:50. | |
much and tax too much. Four people have been killed in an | :48:51. | :49:04. | |
earthquake that struck in Northern Pakistan. The quake was felt in | :49:05. | :49:09. | |
India and Pakistan. More on that after this news bulletin. | :49:10. | :49:15. | |
100,000 spaces will be created at migrant reception centres in Greece | :49:16. | :49:19. | |
and Slovenia after an agreement in Brussels. Hundreds of police are | :49:20. | :49:22. | |
being sent to the country to secure their borders. | :49:23. | :49:26. | |
We will find out this morning whether some meats should be classed | :49:27. | :49:29. | |
as something that can give you cancer. The World Health | :49:30. | :49:31. | |
Organization has been reviewing evidence on whether red and | :49:32. | :49:35. | |
processed meats increase the risk of the diseases. Meat producers are | :49:36. | :49:39. | |
already critical. Official UK advice is that red meat can be part of a | :49:40. | :49:48. | |
healthy diet. The former Director of Public Prosecutions tells this | :49:49. | :49:50. | |
programme there needs to be a re-think of how the way cyclists | :49:51. | :49:57. | |
death cases are decided. Sir Keir Starmer says the Crown Prosecution | :49:58. | :50:00. | |
Service should make that decision that. I think there is a very strong | :50:01. | :50:05. | |
case for saying where there is a death involved f it is serious | :50:06. | :50:08. | |
enough to have had a criminal investigation then it really ought | :50:09. | :50:13. | |
to go off to the CPS for a final decision. | :50:14. | :50:19. | |
We will talk more about those views between 10.30am and 11am. Time for | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
the sport and here is Ore. Let's talk about Lewis Hamilton. Why don't | :50:25. | :50:30. | |
we? He is moving into Formula One history. He is the second British | :50:31. | :50:36. | |
driver to win three world titles. 2008 was his first, in 2014 Hamilton | :50:37. | :50:41. | |
made it two and the Mercedes driver secured back-to-back titles after | :50:42. | :50:44. | |
win ago thrilling US Grand Prix in Texas of the let's talk to Britain's | :50:45. | :50:50. | |
1992 world champion, Nigel Mansell. Good morning to you, Nigel Good | :50:51. | :50:54. | |
morning to you, how are you? We are very well. Let's talk about Lewis | :50:55. | :50:58. | |
because before this season, he was a great. Now this guy is one of the | :50:59. | :51:02. | |
greats, right? Yeah. I just think it is absolutely brilliant. No one can | :51:03. | :51:07. | |
take away the achievement of winning three World Championships, but the | :51:08. | :51:10. | |
US Grand Prix was the greatest winner of all yesterday. What | :51:11. | :51:15. | |
sensational entertainment everybody had from accidents to crashes, to | :51:16. | :51:19. | |
safety car, to obviously Lewis getting the most fantastic start off | :51:20. | :51:23. | |
the grid and being in control pret why much all the way through the | :51:24. | :51:26. | |
race. The race yesterday had everything for everybody. And this | :51:27. | :51:30. | |
is really an example of what kind of a driver he is because he is the | :51:31. | :51:35. | |
fans rifr, he is a drivers' driver and people talk about the car he | :51:36. | :51:38. | |
has, he is ahead of the game when it comes to his competitors, but he | :51:39. | :51:42. | |
really shows when it comes to the crunch, that he is one of the best | :51:43. | :51:46. | |
drivers on the grid and as he showed in the last three world titles, the | :51:47. | :51:50. | |
best driver? The thing is in this present era, there is only a couple | :51:51. | :51:54. | |
of teams that can be competitive and obviously Lewis is heading up the | :51:55. | :51:58. | |
Mercedes team with Nico. Nico is the only person who could have won the | :51:59. | :52:02. | |
World Championship from him this year and obviously had the upper | :52:03. | :52:06. | |
hand with Nico and he demonstrated that yesterday with the last stop | :52:07. | :52:10. | |
and new tyres. He put Nico under pressure. It was one small error and | :52:11. | :52:15. | |
all of a sudden, job got done in the lead, win the race, win the World | :52:16. | :52:19. | |
Championship and it is marvellous. So yeah, I mean, I don't see anybody | :52:20. | :52:24. | |
really holding a light to him for 2016. I think Mercedes will still be | :52:25. | :52:29. | |
incredibly dominant. The only team next year that might surprise us is | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
Ferrari, but I mean my goodness me, I think Nico and Lewis between them | :52:34. | :52:38. | |
will be showing everybody the way going into next year. What about | :52:39. | :52:42. | |
that rivalry though, Nigel? Because it has been heated between Lewis and | :52:43. | :52:46. | |
Nico for a couple of seasons now, but yesterday after the race, it was | :52:47. | :52:51. | |
a little bit warm if you like when the two came together. Every driver | :52:52. | :52:54. | |
needs a rivalry to better themselves and it was the case when it comes to | :52:55. | :52:58. | |
Lewis Hamilton? Let's be fair to Nico, he is human. He just lost the | :52:59. | :53:03. | |
race. He could have won it and he could have extended the championship | :53:04. | :53:07. | |
for another race, but the inevitable would have happened anyway and Lewis | :53:08. | :53:10. | |
would have been world champion, but he didn't, he made that small | :53:11. | :53:14. | |
mistake. Lewis has put him under pressure all year and it is going to | :53:15. | :53:21. | |
be an incredible rivalry going into 2016, but Lewis, I feel for myself | :53:22. | :53:25. | |
that he will just get better and better. I said this a couple of | :53:26. | :53:29. | |
years ago and thank you Lewis for proving me right because I think he | :53:30. | :53:33. | |
is enjoying life. He is enjog his racing, you know, and he will just | :53:34. | :53:36. | |
get better. I really feel he'll get better. We can hear how big a fan | :53:37. | :53:46. | |
you are. He gained global fans. Nigel Mansell, for now, thank you | :53:47. | :53:49. | |
very much indeed. Let's wrap up some of the other sport for you. | :53:50. | :53:53. | |
England's cricketers are facing defeat in the second Test Match | :53:54. | :53:58. | |
against Pakistan in Dubai. Chasing an unlikely victory target of 491, | :53:59. | :54:04. | |
they are struggling on 251-#. Pakistan needing just three more | :54:05. | :54:08. | |
wickets to win the match. It looks like England are going to go one | :54:09. | :54:11. | |
down in the series with a match left to play. | :54:12. | :54:14. | |
There were no goals in the Manchester derby yesterday. And | :54:15. | :54:21. | |
Liverpool and Southampton drew 1-1, but there were goals da lower on the | :54:22. | :54:27. | |
South Coast. Spurs thrashed Bournemouth 5-1. | :54:28. | :54:32. | |
There was a hat-trick in the rugby two. Australia beat Argentina at | :54:33. | :54:38. | |
Twickenham yesterday putting them through a fourth World Cup final. | :54:39. | :54:41. | |
They will face New Zealand next Saturday. Disappointment for | :54:42. | :54:47. | |
Argentina and Maradona and for their coach who couldn't really hide his | :54:48. | :54:52. | |
disappointment at the final whistle. The Wallabies go through to the | :54:53. | :54:57. | |
final. They are happy. There is the Argentina coach, he is not happy. We | :54:58. | :55:03. | |
will see if it is Australia or New Zealand could come out on top. | :55:04. | :55:09. | |
Good morning and welcome to the programme, we're on BBC Two and | :55:10. | :55:12. | |
Many of you getting in touch about tax credits. Ben jal minute said, | :55:13. | :55:26. | |
"My wife and I are teaching assistants in state primary schools. | :55:27. | :55:30. | |
After taking into account the rise in the personal threshold, our | :55:31. | :55:33. | |
family stand to lose ?2,000 a year with the tax credit cuts. Why is | :55:34. | :55:37. | |
this burden being placed on the shoulders of those two out of ten | :55:38. | :55:44. | |
families on the lowest incomes?" Barbara e-mails to say "It is rich | :55:45. | :55:48. | |
coming from a Conservative MP to say the country can't afford to support | :55:49. | :55:54. | |
the poorest, but can increase the inheritance tax for the wealthy." | :55:55. | :55:59. | |
Andrew tweets, "Me and my wife just want a fair wage and not to have to | :56:00. | :56:06. | |
rely on tax credits. If the cuts go ahead, we will give up work." | :56:07. | :56:09. | |

Four people have been killed and dozens injured in Pakistan after a | :56:34. | :56:37. | |
strong earthquake hit neighbouring Afghanistan. Tremors have been | :56:38. | :56:42. | |
reported in Delhi, in India. The quake had a magnitude of 7.5. Let's | :56:43. | :56:54. | |
talk to someone who is in Pakistan. Various news agencies were reporting | :56:55. | :56:59. | |
that the epicentre was Pakistan, but I think you can say it was That's | :57:00. | :57:03. | |
what the Afghanistan? US geological survey are saying. That the | :57:04. | :57:08. | |
epicentre was in Afghanistan across the border from Pakistan. There is | :57:09. | :57:13. | |
plenty of damage in Northern Pakistan. It is a mountainous area | :57:14. | :57:23. | |
and the region is what affectedful we have reports of children getting | :57:24. | :57:29. | |
killed on the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan and houses | :57:30. | :57:34. | |
collapsing, people getting trapped, there are some injuries, but the | :57:35. | :57:38. | |
full-scale is not clear. It will be a while before we know the full | :57:39. | :57:45. | |
extent of the damage. How populated is this mountainous region? Well | :57:46. | :57:48. | |
there, is effectively the entire north of Pakistan. Not just this | :57:49. | :57:55. | |
region, but the northern part of north-west Pakistan. It is a large | :57:56. | :58:01. | |
area. The Prime Minister and army chief have already directed the army | :58:02. | :58:06. | |
to assess the damage and to move if necessary. So obviously it is a | :58:07. | :58:13. | |
fluid situation, but many people are really worried because it reminds | :58:14. | :58:16. | |
them of a massive earthquake ten years ago. We had that anniversary | :58:17. | :58:22. | |
on 8th October and 75,000 people were killed. People are fearful. | :58:23. | :58:32. | |
Local channels are showing pictures of people evacuating buildings. | :58:33. | :58:36. | |
Reports are still trickling in. Thank you. | :58:37. | :58:47. | |
Processed meat is expected to be listed as a cancer causing | :58:48. | :58:52. | |
substance, fresh red meat is expected to be regarded as bad for | :58:53. | :59:03. | |
your health. Dr Clare Knight is the health information manager, we are | :59:04. | :59:07. | |
joined by Shadow second for Food and Rural Affairs. Elizabeth is a mum of | :59:08. | :59:12. | |
one and a nutritionist and her family don't eat processed meat, but | :59:13. | :59:16. | |
eat red meat several times a week and Denis has been a butcher for 50 | :59:17. | :59:21. | |
years. 50 years. He is owner of the fantastic sausage factory in Dorset. | :59:22. | :59:22. | |
Welcome all of you. How significant is this change of | :59:23. | :59:30. | |
advice from the World Health Organization going to be? We need to | :59:31. | :59:33. | |
wait and see what the report says. We can't talk about that report | :59:34. | :59:37. | |
until we see it. But the evidence has been building over previous | :59:38. | :59:42. | |
decades around red and processed meat a Cancer Research UK's | :59:43. | :59:50. | |
messaging hand been about making sure your diet is healthy and | :59:51. | :59:57. | |
balanced. As someone who was brought up on sausages twice a week, | :59:58. | :00:01. | |
sausages and mash twice a week, is that a lot? The research doesn't | :00:02. | :00:06. | |
point to a clear threshold if you like where the level is risky above | :00:07. | :00:12. | |
and safe below, but the Government have set recommendation if you're | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
eating around about 90 grams of red or processed meat What is that? It | :00:17. | :00:25. | |
is about sausages, a couple of sausages that's 60 grams. A day? Are | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
you saying that's all right? If you eat a lot, cut down to 70 grams, | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
that's a few pieces of bacon or a couple of sausages. So there is less | :00:36. | :00:42. | |
risk then. If you have the odd bacon sandwich and sausage and eat red or | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
processed meat infrequently, it is unlikely to do much to your risk of | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
cancer, but if if you are worried about it, eat less. They are | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
expected to put this in the same category as cigarettes? There is an | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
important distinction between the way that organisations which is part | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
of the World Health Organization look at cancer make their | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
classification. They look at whether or not the evidence is strong enough | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
to link something to cancer. So that doesn't necessarily, they don't talk | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
about how many cancers that causes. So we know that the evidence is | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
fairly strong around red and processed meat. We think that it | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
probably causes around about 8,000 cancers a year in the UK. | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
Cigarettes... Bowel cancers. Cigarettes we know cause 65,000 | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
cases of cancer a year and kills up to two in three long-term smokers of | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
the it is a different level of risk. The risk is higher with smoking. | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
Denis, hello, thank you for coming on the programme. How often do you | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
eat red meat and processed meat? Most days I would say. I think the | :01:50. | :02:01. | |
Skype line has frozen. Isn't that typical? We will phone you on the | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
phone. What do you make of what we are expecting to hear from the WHO? | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
The important thing is that information is in the public domain | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
so people can make choices. It is not about banning people doing | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
anything or taking action to stop them, but about people making their | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
own choices. We have had that with smoking and we have had that | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
discussion with sugar with Jamie Oliver's Compiegne -- campaign. It | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
is important that people are well informed. There is so much | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
misinformation and conflicting stories in the papers about what is | :02:40. | :02:48. | |
good for you. I think... No it's still frozen. Let's try Elizabeth. | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
If the WHO say this, will it change the way you feed your family? I | :02:58. | :03:05. | |
think lumping red meat with processed meat is problematic. | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
They're separate. One is highly processed with levels of nitrates | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
that can react within the stomach. There is a higher risk of stomach | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
cancer with processed meat. That isn't the same with red meat. So the | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
so-called evidence needs unpacking. It is what you do to the meat that | :03:27. | :03:33. | |
counts. If you char it and burn it and barbecue it, and even if I yo | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
eat it raw there are instances of viruses being transmitted. You have | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
to up pack it and can't lump a natural food stuff with a processed | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
food stuff. Dennis, hello on the phone. Welcome again. How often do | :03:51. | :03:59. | |
you eat red meat? Most days. I eat sausages every day, because I make | :04:00. | :04:06. | |
them and I always have a taste. If if WHO says that too much of this | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
can cause bowel cancer, will you change your habits. Well it is a | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
sweeping statement, I make a premium sausage and we make over a million a | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
year and there are different grades of sausages, you can buy a pound of | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
sausages for 99 pence. Will there be different risks with the different | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
processed foods, will they make this clear or is it a sweeping statement | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
to scare the life out of everyone. Are you expecting evidence to back | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
this up? They will look at all the available evidence, which we have | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
have been basing our messaging on. Later today once the report is | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
announced we will be covering the findings of the report and producing | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
information on our web-site. So check out our blog and web-site for | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
more. There is check out our blog and web-site for | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
more. There is a difference between Ray cheap sausages and the high | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
premium stuff, that is proper meat. The leaked stories about the report | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
are correct, if so they will draw a distinction and come down hard on | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
processed meat, but talking about limiting red meat consumption to the | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
levels we have already heard about. Pit is worth saying that the red | :05:33. | :05:44. | |
meat has a vast array of nutrients. Red meat does offer benefits and it | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
is a good source of protein, but the evidence doesn't suggest it makes a | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
difference how high quality your meat is. It is the chemicals within | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
the meat that create problems when they reach the bowel and are | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
digested. It is not about whether it is cheap or high quality sausages. | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
It is in the meat itself. But the relative risk is not high. . | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
Compared to smoking, absolutely. Thank you. Very much. A couple of | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
meants, this said I'm getting away from bowel cancer, through the bacon | :06:23. | :06:29. | |
away. Up with says if people want to eat red meat let them get on it. One | :06:30. | :06:38. | |
says stay safe and go veggie. And no torture inflicted on animals. Still | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
to come. Four people have been killed in a powerful earthquake in | :06:45. | :06:53. | |
South Asia. And this news, I mentioned a military barracks in | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
Belgium has been attacked. The latest reported by associated press | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
is an attacker tried to crash his car through the gates of an army | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
barracks in Belgium, but fled in the vehicle after shots were fired. This | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
being announced by a government official. The incident occurred | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
south of Brussels. It is the site of one of Belgium's major military | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
barracks. Home to the second commando battalion. The defence | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
cabinet chief said one car tried to get into the barracks, there was one | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
person in the car, he fled. "Outmoded, | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
outdated and outrageous" - that's how the star of hit BBC Two comedy | :07:38. | :07:39. | |
drama Boy Meets Girl has described comments from feminist author | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
Germaine Greer that transgender Germaine Greer believes a man cannot | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
become a woman no matter what surgery they undergo, how they dress | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
or even how society perceives them. One of the most famous fem ips in | :07:50. | :08:12. | |
the world. Germaine Greer's bok The Female Eunuch became a Bible for | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
some feminist and said the way society was set up are pressed women | :08:17. | :08:24. | |
and turned them into eunuchs. It is impossible to castrate a woman. It | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
is only impossible, because it is assumed she has no sex from the | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
outset. Because she is assumed to be a castrated thing from the outset. I | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
didn't castrate women, Freud did. Her book tapped into the mood of | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
time when the liberation movements were encouraging women to burn their | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
bras. Since then she has never been far from the headlines. She appeared | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
on celebrity big brother, only to walk out. But it is her comments | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
about transgender women that pushed her back into the headlines. I'm not | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
saying people should not be allowed to go through that procedure. What | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
I'm saying it doesn't make them a woman. It is an opinion. Not a | :09:12. | :09:18. | |
prohibition. Carry on. If that is what you think it is you want to do. | :09:19. | :09:26. | |
So one lake Caitlin, who has been on the front of magazines and | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
apparently is getting an award for being glamour woman of year, what do | :09:33. | :09:39. | |
you think about that? I think it is misogynist. That plays a big part in | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
this. That a man who goes to these lengths will be a better woman than | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
someone who is born a woman. Are people you would say knellsly born a | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
woman or feeling female, if he feels more female. It seems to me that | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
what was going on there is that he, she, wanted the limelight that the | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
other female members of family were enjoying and has conquered it just | :10:12. | :10:22. | |
like that. Germaine Greer. Although professor Greer has held this view a | :10:23. | :10:31. | |
while, students have launched a petition to get her band. Let's talk | :10:32. | :10:39. | |
to Rebecca Root. She stars in a sit come with a transgender actor in a | :10:40. | :10:47. | |
lead role. I'm a transsexual. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Don't look now, but | :10:48. | :10:56. | |
isn't that Gary bead frl Geordie Shore. It could be his twin. Sorry. | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
Sorry. You were saying something. Leo, there is something I need to | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
tell you. I could tell you later or now. I would rather it will you now. | :11:07. | :11:14. | |
I was born with with a penis. The waiter standing beside her... Hi. | :11:15. | :11:22. | |
Hi. Are you ready to order. I think we might need a minute. Maybe a | :11:23. | :11:32. | |
little bit longer. No problem. Leo stares at Judy who, smiles. Do you | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
want to ask me anything. Just... Nothing too personal. So... You... | :11:38. | :11:52. | |
Yes? You were... You were born in the wrong body? Yes. Yes that's | :11:53. | :11:59. | |
right. I think we had the subtitled version there, but you got the gist. | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
Some of our conversation will be frank and direct and I know it is | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
half term, I have children myself. According to Germaine Greer you | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
aren't a woman? Yes, well she has an opinion and as I think I said | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
before, it is a very out of date opinion. And I would like to see her | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
say that to my face frankly. I didn't think she should. We did ask | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
her to come on the programme. She is travelling and can't. She gave us a | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
statement which has expletives that I will leave out. | :12:36. | :13:04. | |
Why are you laugh something Sorry, that is just, you did say you were | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
going to read the statement, I didn't know what it was going to be. | :13:10. | :13:16. | |
That leaves me absolutely gobsmacked. Beeping gobsmacked in | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
fact. This is something I would associate with the worst of gutter | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
press, not of something of an academic standing, a woman who | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
should know better than Germaine Greer. It is just ridiculous. And | :13:32. | :13:39. | |
to... Is it absurd or is it offensive? It is both. You know, | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
somebody said to me, when this blew up over the weekend, I said I would | :13:46. | :13:48. | |
come on the show, they said, oh, don't give her the oxygen of | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
publicity. The fact is it's... On the one hand it is tempting to | :13:55. | :14:03. | |
ignore her and not to give her a greater platform. But if we didn't | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
stand up to bullies they will continue bullying. So it should be | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
addressed and we will all move on and hopefully a more enlightened | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
society will understand and see her comments in the light that they | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
should be seen in. Which is that they are grossly offensive, quite | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
ludicrous and very out of date and out of line with the current... The | :14:32. | :14:39. | |
current... Way that the transcommunity is, we are having at | :14:40. | :14:42. | |
the moment. Are they as offensive as some of the worst racist comments | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
one might hear or sexist comments that one might whatter? Yes. -- one | :14:47. | :14:54. | |
might hear? Yes. You ask any trans Person and they will say what she | :14:55. | :15:03. | |
has been said is grossly offensive. When she said it is my opinion. | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
People have opinions about race and you know holocaust deniers and | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
they're not give an platform. Those opinions are insane really. She you | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
know as you know has fought against the discrimination of women, do you | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
think she is guilty now of the same kind of discrimination towards | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
transgender women? Yes, I think it is a real shame that she has a voice | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
and she has a certain platform in British society, you know global | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
society actually. And it is a shame she is using that platform in such a | :15:44. | :15:53. | |
negative bigoted derogatory way when she could use it for so much better. | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
This e-mail, Greer is correct in surgery does not change a man into a | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
woman. But there is more than surgery involved here. Surgery is | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
merely the cherry on the icing on the cake. She should spend a week | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
presenting as a man to experience a hint of what is like to live with | :16:14. | :16:22. | |
the incongrewence we have to endure. She is luckily not to have spent | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
decades of her life living with gender conflict. | :16:28. | :16:34. | |
It was horrible. That's a wonderful e-mail. You know, the ultimate | :16:35. | :16:42. | |
surgery is not everybody's destination. You know, there are as | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
many different experiences of being trance as there are trance people | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
and some people choose not to go through ultimate surgery, but for | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
many, they do. Before I made my decision to transition, I mean, I | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
felt I was, I felt I was going mad actually. It was probably the | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
hardest thing to live with for some 30 odd years before I realised I had | :17:09. | :17:16. | |
to do something about it, and I was going to end up six-feet under or in | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
a small urn or I had to transition so it really came down to that. Do I | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
want to live? I felt I wanted to live. Have you experienced | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
discrimination? Yeah. In what form? I have been attacked. I have been | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
beaten up. I have had things thrown at me, bottles, stones, names, and | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
believe me, I know we say sticks and stones break my bones names, but | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
names are just as offensive. Again Germaine Greer says well, women have | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
been called names for decades. You can't equate the two. I'm not saying | :17:57. | :18:07. | |
that, you know, that women don't have a right to have equality, of | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
pay, or representation in society, of course, but we're all human at | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
the end of the day. I am as human as you are, as anybody else in this | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
studio or watching this programme. We are all human. The fact is that | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
you know I suppose I'm very much a glass half full person. I made the | :18:27. | :18:34. | |
decision to live as I just said. It seems that Professor Greer is a | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
negative force. We are all talking about Star Wars and everything at | :18:40. | :18:45. | |
the moment. She is like the worst baddy in your classic panto really. | :18:46. | :18:54. | |
So after I transitioned life just became worth living and I, you know, | :18:55. | :19:04. | |
I would TV to the nature of the benefits of transitioning and the | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
support that you get from the NHS over burden though it is and from a | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
loving family and friends and people who stand by you and perhaps it's | :19:15. | :19:22. | |
that, you know, Professor Greer had difficulties in her life which she | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
is perhaps taking into other areas of her work and I feel sorry for | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
her. More comments. India tweets, "Gender is dictated by the brain, | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
not body parts and Germaine Greer is pre-historic." Another viewer says, | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
"Germaine Greer has become jaded about everything. It is time for her | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
to retire from public view." Another viewer says, "Born a man, always a | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
body no much how much you change your body and chuck cash." Another | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
viewer says, "Germaine Greer has proved she is just as ignorant as | :19:55. | :19:56. | |
any sexist." We'll continue to get the latest | :19:57. | :20:03. | |
on that powerful earthquake Reports say | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
at least four people have died. And | :20:08. | :20:09. | |

while it was still in the womb. The Government faces possible | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
defeat in the House of Lords Ministers say the unelected Lords | :20:19. | :20:25. | |
would be over-reaching themselves if they vote down financial | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
measures approved by MPs. Opponents accuse them | :20:31. | :20:39. | |
of trying to force through reforms. A powerful earthquake has | :20:40. | :20:41. | |
struck northern Afghanistan. It's being reported that four people | :20:42. | :20:43. | |
have died in neighbouring Pakistan and the earthquake was felt | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
across northern India. The US geological survey has put | :20:47. | :20:48. | |
the magnitude of the quake at 7.7. Pm | :20:49. | :21:11. | |
Four people have been killed. Let's talk to a seismologist from the | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
United States geological survey earthquake centre. What can you tell | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
us? We have it as a 7.5 around 215 kilometres depth in the Hindu | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
mountains. This is in the north-eastern part of Afghanistan on | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
the border with Pakistan. We have reports of it being felt from | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
Afghanistan all the way to New Delhi in Northern India. Can you put into | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
context for us what 7.5 actually means? Well, it is a pretty big | :21:39. | :21:46. | |
earthquake even for this region. This region typically has smaller | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
earthquakes like threes and fours. This was much bigger. It releases a | :21:51. | :21:57. | |
lot more energy. We're seeing live pictures now from Islamabad which | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
show people who have left buildings in order to get outside. What kind | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
of damage would you expect with an earthquake of this magnitude? In | :22:05. | :22:10. | |
this region, with an earthquake of this magnitude there is the | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
potential for landslides and the shaking itself can cause damage and | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
part of it just depends on the infrastructure of the buildings in | :22:20. | :22:22. | |
this region. Thank you for the moment. Thank you very much for | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
talking to us. There are report that is a building | :22:28. | :22:34. | |
has collapsed in Rawaplindi 20 kilometres from Islamabadment more | :22:35. | :22:35. | |
in the next half an hour. An extra 100,000 spaces will be | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
created at migrant reception centres in Greece and Slovenia | :22:41. | :22:42. | |
after an agreement in Brussels. Hundreds more police are also | :22:43. | :22:44. | |
being sent to the countries to A gunman has tried to crash | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
his car through the gates Belgian prosecutors said several | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
shots were fired as the man tried to enter the | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
compound near the city of Namur. No one was hurt | :22:56. | :22:58. | |
and the man fled the scene. We'll find out later | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
whether meats should be classed as The World Health Organization has | :23:03. | :23:05. | |

at the final whistle. A song by Madonna and the soundtrack by Evita | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
comes to mind! OK, enough! Thank you, Ore. | :24:35. | :24:51. | |
The way cycling deaths are treated by police and prosecutors may need | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
to change, the former Director of Public Prosecutions has told | :24:55. | :24:56. | |
Sir Keir Starmer says there's a very strong case for | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
the CPS to make the final decision on whether to prosecute in cases | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
113 cyclists died in accidents in 2014 - that's a figure | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
which has remained relatively steady over the last few years. | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
But a leading cycling charity tells us they've seen dozens of cases | :25:10. | :25:11. | |
where the families of cyclists who die on our roads feel let down | :25:12. | :25:18. | |
So are cyclists being properly protected by the police, | :25:19. | :25:21. | |
Anna Tatton-Brown, a BBC journalist who works | :25:22. | :25:33. | |
Her Dad died after he was knocked off his bike | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
The film contains some distressing images. | :25:38. | :25:39. | |
I'm Anna, and last year my dad died on his bike here in Central London. | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
I'm going to take a look at whether the families | :25:44. | :25:45. | |
of cyclists who die on our roads are let down by the police, | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
My dad was cycling home this way, up this Central London road, | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
when he was knocked off his bike, right there. | :25:54. | :25:55. | |
He was in hospital, in a coma for three weeks, | :25:56. | :25:57. | |
At the inquest into my father's death, the driver | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
She said it was like something falling from the sky. | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
Afterwards, the coroner's verdict was that | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
Society obviously depends on families joining together. | :26:12. | :26:14. | |
Here's my dad, Mick Mason, in happier times at my wedding. | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
He was a gentle, unassuming Geordie, who often had a twinkle in his eye. | :26:20. | :26:26. | |
My family and I had questions about how the police were investigating | :26:27. | :26:29. | |
Potential witnesses weren't chased as we would have liked, and they | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
didn't appear to be think about what we were going through as a family. | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
One officer even asked us if he wondered whether my dad might | :26:41. | :26:42. | |
A leading cycling charity who have helped me told us they have seen | :26:43. | :26:51. | |
dozens of cases like my dad's over the last few years. | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
They said the families of cyclists who die in road accidents often feel | :26:56. | :26:58. | |
disappointed with the way the cases have been dealt with by police, | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
One police chief defended the way officers handle cycling | :27:02. | :27:08. | |
deaths, but admitted she wouldn't cycle regularly in London. | :27:09. | :27:15. | |
Would I feel safe as a commuter in London? No, I wouldn't. | :27:16. | :27:18. | |
I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't do that. | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
Keir Starmer is the former Director of Public Prosecutions, | :27:23. | :27:24. | |
and used to make decisions on whether cases passed to him by the | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
He said that system might need to change. | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
I think there's a very strong case for saying where there's a death | :27:33. | :27:35. | |
involved, if it's serious enough to have had a criminal investigation, | :27:36. | :27:39. | |
then it really ought to go off to the CPS for a final decision. | :27:40. | :27:45. | |
Normally, the police investigate a crime and | :27:46. | :27:47. | |
then decide whether to pass it to prosecutors at the CPS, so what he's | :27:48. | :27:50. | |
I really wanted to talk to the Metropolitan Police | :27:51. | :27:58. | |
about my dad's case, but they sent me a statement instead. | :27:59. | :28:01. | |
We followed all available lines of inquiry in this case. | :28:02. | :28:04. | |
Mr Mason's family has already received is an apology | :28:05. | :28:06. | |
and an explanation for the miscommunication. | :28:07. | :28:10. | |
It is wrong, however, to suggest that the investigators | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
directly inferred or suggested that Mr Mason was in some way responsible | :28:17. | :28:20. | |
My family's experiences aren't unique, | :28:21. | :28:25. | |
and I wonder whether the problem might be a kind of institutional | :28:26. | :28:28. | |
Too often the starting point seems to be whether the cyclist could | :28:29. | :28:34. | |
My family and I still want to know what happened to my dad | :28:35. | :28:40. | |
on that street behind me, and the police aren't taking his case | :28:41. | :28:43. | |
any further, so the only option left to us is a private prosecution. | :28:44. | :28:46. | |
Lawyers acting for us will take on the case without the involvement | :28:47. | :28:49. | |
Now, clearly none of this is going to bring my dad back, but it might | :28:50. | :28:54. | |
get us a bit closer to knowing what happened to him on that night. | :28:55. | :29:02. | |
Let's talk to Julian Hunt, a former crown prosecutor who defends and | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
prosecutes in road traffic cases, Andrew Gilligan, London's Cycling | :29:06. | :29:07. | |
Commissioner, Rhia Favero, from the national cycling charity, the CTC. | :29:08. | :29:16. | |
Jaulian Hunt the complaint is not muff motorists are prosecuted when a | :29:17. | :29:25. | |
cyclist dies in a RTA? The real answer is trying to make roads safer | :29:26. | :29:32. | |
rather thab using the blunt instrument of the justice system. | :29:33. | :29:37. | |
More 20mph zones and more segregated lanes for cyclists. Andrew, is that | :29:38. | :29:42. | |
enough for you a more holistic view or if a relative of yours had an | :29:43. | :29:49. | |
killed in an RTA cycling to or from work, would you want justice? I was | :29:50. | :29:53. | |
disturbed by what That police officer said in your film. It is not | :29:54. | :29:58. | |
really true, cycling in London is safer than it used to be, in 198990 | :29:59. | :30:07. | |
million cycle journeys 33 ending in death. We have got two problems with | :30:08. | :30:10. | |
safety. We have got actual safety where the story is really good in | :30:11. | :30:14. | |
London anyway, and we have got perceived safety where people don't | :30:15. | :30:17. | |
believe the figures or they don't know about them and don't think it | :30:18. | :30:21. | |
is safe and comments from the police... The chief constables said | :30:22. | :30:26. | |
they wouldn't cycle in London? I have a problem with that. There is | :30:27. | :30:30. | |
an implication what she was saying that actually in some cases the | :30:31. | :30:35. | |
cyclists are to blame for their own deaths by doing something she thinks | :30:36. | :30:39. | |
is dangerous and that may explain as your reporter was told was her | :30:40. | :30:45. | |
father to blame for his own death? That may explain the reasons why the | :30:46. | :30:49. | |
police are reluctant to act in these cases. There are numerous factors | :30:50. | :30:55. | |
that cause most traffic collisions. It can be speed. It can be the type | :30:56. | :31:01. | |
of vehicles involved, it is not normally simply a case of one person | :31:02. | :31:06. | |
driving badly. Most people would acknowledge that, you know, any | :31:07. | :31:10. | |
collision is not necessarily a very simple event. It can be complex, and | :31:11. | :31:16. | |
therefore the police need to investigate thoroughly and the issue | :31:17. | :31:22. | |
that has been brought forward in Anna's film that doesn't always seem | :31:23. | :31:26. | |
to happen? I can't comment on the individual cases themselves, but we | :31:27. | :31:29. | |
have always got to remember the context which is that in this | :31:30. | :31:33. | |
country, we do have some of the safest roads in the world. I think | :31:34. | :31:38. | |
there were 1700 road deaths last year. Which is course is 1700 too | :31:39. | :31:44. | |
many, but it is a low number. 100 cyclist in the UK are killed per | :31:45. | :31:48. | |
year. Again, a number which is too large, but we are getting there. And | :31:49. | :31:52. | |
as we embed cycling culture into this country and the number of | :31:53. | :31:56. | |
people cycling is growing every year, we are going to reach a | :31:57. | :32:01. | |
critical stage where we become like the Netherlands and Scandinavia. Do | :32:02. | :32:04. | |
you think that's going to happen, Maria? | :32:05. | :32:11. | |
We need better infrastructure and better enforcement. We seen a 37% | :32:12. | :32:19. | |
reduction in roads police numbers since about 2002. Over all police | :32:20. | :32:24. | |
numbers have only gone down by 4%. So they're taking the brunt of cuts | :32:25. | :32:28. | |
and the police force are going to face more cuts and the roads police | :32:29. | :32:33. | |
continue take more. So we need a holistic approach. What about those | :32:34. | :32:40. | |
wondering about the crying baby, we are going to meet a one-year-old! | :32:41. | :32:46. | |
The people you meet through your charity, do you believe that there | :32:47. | :32:51. | |
is an inherent bias against the families of cyclists who are killed | :32:52. | :32:57. | |
on our roads? There is, we see a bias throughout the whole criminal | :32:58. | :32:59. | |
justice system, the police, the Crown Prosecution Service and the | :33:00. | :33:04. | |
courts against cyclists, we see assumptions made about cyclists that | :33:05. | :33:12. | |
they were not wearing ing a helmet or were on a dual carriageway. Do | :33:13. | :33:17. | |
you come across that there is maybe, it is important to way a helmet and | :33:18. | :33:26. | |
high vis, but there is too much emphasis on that Yes, part of answer | :33:27. | :33:29. | |
is building the infrastructure and that is what we are doing in London | :33:30. | :33:33. | |
and part of reason we have had a better performance on cyclists than | :33:34. | :33:39. | |
the rest of country, dykeling deaths are -- cycling deaths are almost | :33:40. | :33:45. | |
flat and we are putting in more cycle lanes that will be open in a | :33:46. | :33:50. | |
few months. Those have caused controversy with our opponents, but | :33:51. | :33:53. | |
they are about making people safer on the roads. Do you think the | :33:54. | :34:00. | |
authorities let too much bad driving go unpunished? Yes, I think there | :34:01. | :34:04. | |
are not enough prosecutions and I think that that, it is only part of | :34:05. | :34:09. | |
answer, I'm clear that infrastructure is a bigger part and | :34:10. | :34:12. | |
making junctions in particular safer, that is where most cyclists | :34:13. | :34:18. | |
get killed and things like reducing the danger from heavy lorry and | :34:19. | :34:21. | |
making them fit extra safety devices. Another reason why the | :34:22. | :34:25. | |
death rate here is coming down. There is a lot the police and | :34:26. | :34:28. | |
criminal justice system could do that they're not. There is franky | :34:29. | :34:37. | |
again, the little girl we are about to meet. Do you think that is right. | :34:38. | :34:48. | |
The majority of motorists are not great drivers and we need to improve | :34:49. | :34:55. | |
our driving behaviour. That can only be done through three things, | :34:56. | :35:00. | |
infrastructure, educating drivers, so they improve particularly after | :35:01. | :35:06. | |
an offence and better enforcement so people are prosecuted and sentenced. | :35:07. | :35:15. | |
Thank you very much. More now on the earthquake which has struck Northern | :35:16. | :35:20. | |
Afghanistan. We are hearing from the Reuters news agency that five people | :35:21. | :35:25. | |
have been killed and 55 injured. This is according to the head of a | :35:26. | :35:32. | |
provincial hospital. The head of that hospital has been telling | :35:33. | :35:39. | |
Reuters this earthquake which we are told is 7.5 magnitude has killed | :35:40. | :35:48. | |
five people. And there are pictures from Pakistan state TV. | :35:49. | :35:54. | |
Gina Lavis was 20 weeks pregnant when her baby was diagnosed with | :35:55. | :35:57. | |
spina bifida which can lead to babies being born | :35:58. | :35:59. | |
with learning difficulties and paralysis of the lower limbs. | :36:00. | :36:01. | |
A month later she underwent a ground-breaking operation, | :36:02. | :36:03. | |
the first of its kind on the NHS, where the exposed spine | :36:04. | :36:06. | |
of her unborn child was corrected while it was still in the womb. | :36:07. | :36:09. | |
The surgery was a success and Frankie celebrated her first | :36:10. | :36:11. | |
Here's a little bit more information about spina bifida. | :36:12. | :36:22. | |
A section of the spinal column doesn't form properly. | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
The spinal cord is exposed through a gap in the skin to toxic | :36:27. | :36:30. | |
The severity varies, but it can lead to serious disability | :36:31. | :36:38. | |
Gina Lavis had to fly to Belgium to receive | :36:39. | :36:45. | |
the ground-breaking surgery by Professor Jan Duprest and his team. | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
A year after Frankie was born, he came to the UK recently to see | :36:50. | :36:52. | |
Frankie is fast approaching her first birthday, | :36:53. | :37:04. | |
but before the celebrations, there's another big event - | :37:05. | :37:06. | |
an appointment with the doctor who may have changed her life. | :37:07. | :37:14. | |
It will be nice to see him after the surgery last year, | :37:15. | :37:19. | |
but it's a bit nerve-racking as well to think what he might say | :37:20. | :37:24. | |
how well she is doing, or how well he doesn't think she is doing. | :37:25. | :37:27. | |
It is, yeah, I think she's changed a bit. | :37:28. | :37:34. | |
First Professor Duprest tickles Frankie's feet. | :37:35. | :37:46. | |
Next the professor wants to check the muscle tone in her legs. | :37:47. | :37:54. | |
Has she got the strength to push against him? | :37:55. | :37:59. | |
Finally, it was a big operation on a tiny baby, Frankie has been | :38:00. | :38:03. | |
This particular family is of course a case that you really look forward | :38:04. | :38:15. | |
to see with your own eyes how a big a child with a lesion, | :38:16. | :38:26. | |
that is extremely high in the spinal column, that this recovers so well | :38:27. | :38:29. | |
He has been impressed with how well Frankie's doing over there. | :38:30. | :38:38. | |
She's got movement, she has got no bowel and bladder | :38:39. | :38:42. | |
problems and she is just growing into a healthy, normal little girl. | :38:43. | :38:45. | |
And viewers in the South West can see more tonight on BBC1 Inside Out | :38:46. | :38:52. | |
at 7.30pm and everywhere else after on the BBC iPlayer. | :38:53. | :38:55. | |
Gina, Dan and Alfie and Frankie are here. | :38:56. | :39:02. | |
You have been so patient Alfie, you're such a good brother! Tell us | :39:03. | :39:10. | |
how your little girl is? She is doing fantastic. As you can see, she | :39:11. | :39:14. | |
is moving around and just full of beans. She has got poor muscle tone | :39:15. | :39:21. | |
in her legs, but apart from that she is normal. Dan when you found there | :39:22. | :39:26. | |
was a possibility of spina bifida, how did you react? I didn't really | :39:27. | :39:32. | |
know a lot about it, when Gina explained a bit about it, at first I | :39:33. | :39:38. | |
was like, being strong for Gina, when I was on my own it was | :39:39. | :39:43. | |
different. It was heartbreaking. We dream of the perfect pregnancy and | :39:44. | :39:47. | |
we wasn't going to have that. What about you Gina? Devastated | :39:48. | :39:51. | |
initially. I probably cried for two days. Because like Dan said, we | :39:52. | :39:56. | |
were, we went in for a scan to see our baby again and given this | :39:57. | :40:05. | |
devastating news that our baby would be disabled. But after a couple of | :40:06. | :40:11. | |
days, I thought, if is that is what it is going to be, get on with it. | :40:12. | :40:15. | |
You were told about the possibility of operation and you have to | :40:16. | :40:18. | |
consider that, this is major surgery and there are risks? Yes. There is | :40:19. | :40:27. | |
risks obviously to me going into premature labour and risks of not | :40:28. | :40:33. | |
coming her with her at all. It is a big risk for the rest of pregnancy. | :40:34. | :40:38. | |
It is a big commitment. A long operation a team of 22 I think? Yes. | :40:39. | :40:44. | |
There were quite a few. And after, I think, you said how did it go and | :40:45. | :40:51. | |
what did they say? They said, we thood do a pit more -- we had to do | :40:52. | :40:56. | |
a bit more work than we expected to do. But they said the operation was | :40:57. | :41:01. | |
a success and Gina will be out in a minute, give her a bit of time. She | :41:02. | :41:07. | |
will come around and then doze off. She looked up and said, I'm really | :41:08. | :41:12. | |
sorry and fell back asleep for a couple of hours. When they come out | :41:13. | :41:16. | |
and tell you it has been a success, it is getting to hear that. Relief. | :41:17. | :41:22. | |
Relief isn't it. Goodness me. Alfie, what do you think of your little | :41:23. | :41:28. | |
sis? Good. She is all right isn't she? She is good. You're a good big | :41:29. | :41:39. | |
brother. He is very helpful. When you met professor Duprest was what | :41:40. | :41:45. | |
that like? That was great, without him and the staff in the UK this | :41:46. | :41:49. | |
wouldn't have happen and we wouldn't be here with this fantastic little | :41:50. | :41:52. | |
girl. Things would have been so different. Thank you for coming on | :41:53. | :41:59. | |
and you have been so patient. Alfie well done. Frankie, thank you. | :42:00. | :42:06. | |
Thanks to all of you who have been getting in touch. Germaine Greer | :42:07. | :42:22. | |
said transgender women were not really women, Denise said how right | :42:23. | :42:26. | |
your guest is, everyone is a person, whatever their sex. Kim said, I | :42:27. | :42:32. | |
agree with Germaine Greer, does you have surgery doesn't make you a | :42:33. | :42:36. | |
woman. Claire said there are always bullies, it is time to respect all | :42:37. | :42:40. | |
individuals for their own choices. Treat others as you would wish to be | :42:41. | :42:48. | |
treated. What respect I may have had for Germaine Greer is lost. Her | :42:49. | :42:52. | |
comments are shameful and disrespectful. Sally said thank you | :42:53. | :42:56. | |
for airing this topic, I have a God child who has been considering this | :42:57. | :43:01. | |
and has been involved with her thought processes and I have been a | :43:02. | :43:07. | |
nurse for 35 years and trained at St Thomas's hospital where it was | :43:08. | :43:12. | |
pioneered and Miss Greer should be ashamed of herself. On cycle deaths, | :43:13. | :43:21. | |
one said I'm fed up with cyclists breaking the highway code, as a | :43:22. | :43:27. | |
pedestrian, I have been hit twice. And they should be fined for cycling | :43:28. | :43:32. | |
on the pavement. Sophie said, as a witness to a cyclist being killed by | :43:33. | :43:41. | |
a lorry, it affected me hugely and I now fear for cyclists. Thank you for | :43:42. | :43:47. | |
all those. If you want to watch our films, go to our programme page and | :43:48. | :43:52. | |
