A 16-year-old boy accepts responsibility for the unlawful

:00:08.:00:12.

killing of his teacher in April. Ann Maguire from Leeds was killed in her

:00:13.:00:18.

classroom. She was due to retire in September, after working more than

:00:19.:00:21.

40 years at the school. We'll have the latest from the courtroom. Also

people, with type 2 diabetes could get weight-loss surgery on the NHS

:00:39.:00:42.

to tackle an epidemic of the disease.

:00:43.:00:47.

My dad died from diabetes complications. I am scared that will

:00:48.:00:51.

happen to me in the future and I'm only 37. Rats, bad smells and

:00:52.:00:57.

rotting rubbish. Residents' fears over bin collections every three

:00:58.:01:00.

weeks. And the British man accused of

:01:01.:01:04.

illegally selling World Cup tickets goes on the run.

:01:05.:01:07.

On BBC London: The Government's flagship technical college is

:01:08.:01:12.

closing, just two years after it opened. We look at the impact on

:01:13.:01:17.

passengers as Putney Bridge closes for three months.

:01:18.:01:36.

Good afternoon. Welcome to the BBC News at One. A 16-year-old boy who

:01:37.:01:44.

is accused of murdering a teacher in her classroom has accepted

:01:45.:01:47.

responsibility for the unlawful killing. Ann Maguire from Leeds was

:01:48.:01:53.

killed in April. The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is due

:01:54.:01:56.

to go on trial. Our correspondent was in court. Ann

:01:57.:02:01.

Maguire, the first teach tore be killed in a British classroom since

:02:02.:02:05.

the Dunblane massacre. Described as the shining light in her family's

:02:06.:02:10.

live, she was stabbed to death during a Spanish lesson at the

:02:11.:02:15.

school three months ago. Now the pupil arrested here at the time has

:02:16.:02:19.

indicated he accepts he killed her. During a ten-minute hearing here at

:02:20.:02:24.

Leeds Crown Court, the teenager didn't enter any formal plea. His

:02:25.:02:30.

barrister told the judge the boy had indicated he accepts responsibility

:02:31.:02:33.

for the unlawful killing of Ann Maguire. The 16-year-old, who was 15

:02:34.:02:38.

at the time, spoke only to confirm his name and that he understood what

:02:39.:02:42.

was happening in court. Some of Ann Maguire's family were in the public

:02:43.:02:48.

gallery today, watching the youth who could be seen on two television

:02:49.:02:54.

screens. Mrs Maguire taught for 40 years at the school and thousands of

:02:55.:02:58.

tributes were left for her at the time. The case surrounding the death

:02:59.:03:05.

of this popular teacher continues. The teenager who killed her is due

:03:06.:03:07.

to return to court in September. What happens next? This case is

:03:08.:03:17.

still on going. Because what the prosecutor said in court today about

:03:18.:03:22.

what the boy had to say is it does not amount to an admission he is

:03:23.:03:26.

guilty of murder. It does amount to an admission he's guilty of

:03:27.:03:31.

manslaughter. At the moment, this 16-year-old, still faces trial for

:03:32.:03:34.

murder. He is due back in court at the end of September for a precourt

:03:35.:03:39.

hearing. A date was set today for a five-day trial to take place at the

:03:40.:03:43.

beginning of November this year. One other important point to come out,

:03:44.:03:48.

was another warning about social media. Basically users of Facebook

:03:49.:03:51.

and Twitter, particularly young people, who may talk about this case

:03:52.:03:57.

online, whilst it is still on going. There was a strong warning that the

:03:58.:04:01.

judge wanted publicising today that nothing must be said about the young

:04:02.:04:08.

man involved. Anything that alludes to his identity or any possible

:04:09.:04:12.

witnesses in this case, who are young people. Nothing must be said

:04:13.:04:16.

to identify them. That was a strong warning given out today, that

:04:17.:04:20.

there'll be serious consequences for anybody found to be doing that. Some

:04:21.:04:24.

progress today with this admission. Still we have more way to go with

:04:25.:04:28.

this young man still facing a murder trial.

:04:29.:04:33.

President Obama says he is prepared to broker a ceasefire between Israel

:04:34.:04:39.

and Hamas militants in Gaza. In a phone call with the Israeli Prime

:04:40.:04:44.

Minister Mr Obama said both sides had to avoid further escalation and

:04:45.:04:48.

restore calm. Over 100 people are now reported to have been killed in

:04:49.:04:53.

Gaza by Israeli air strike, launched in response to Palestinian rocket

:04:54.:04:57.

fire. So far no Israelis have been killed. Two men were severely

:04:58.:05:02.

injured last night when a rocket hit a petrol station in Ashdod. Our

:05:03.:05:06.

Middle East correspondent reports now from Gaza. This was a

:05:07.:05:13.

four-storey building. A dawn air strike by Israel reduced it to

:05:14.:05:17.

rubble. Five were killed. But not the Palestinian militant

:05:18.:05:21.

leader who also lived here. As locals in southern Gaza rushed to

:05:22.:05:26.

help survivors Israeli warplanes attacked a site nearby.

:05:27.:05:35.

On the Israeli side, the charred remains of a petrol station in

:05:36.:05:42.

Ashdod, hit by a Palestinian rocket, fired from Gaza. There was a blaze

:05:43.:05:47.

and several were injured. The US President, Barack Obama,

:05:48.:05:50.

telephoned his ally, the Israeli Prime Minister, offering to help

:05:51.:05:54.

negotiate an end to this violence. The message is that Israel wants to

:05:55.:05:59.

stop rocket attacks by Hamas and other militants for good.

:06:00.:06:05.

TRANSLATION: While the campaign has gone as planned, further stages yet

:06:06.:06:09.

await us. We have struck hard at Hamas and the terrorists and as long

:06:10.:06:13.

as the campaign continues, we will strike them harder.

:06:14.:06:19.

And here in the Gaza Strip, there's been a defiant response, with the

:06:20.:06:23.

number of Palestinian deaths reaching about 100 in four days,

:06:24.:06:29.

Hamas leaders say Israel is the aggressor. They have told us

:06:30.:06:33.

there'll be no ceasefire for now. Many in the international community

:06:34.:06:39.

are calling for more diplomacy. I think we are not going to be able

:06:40.:06:45.

to resolve this unless as well as whatever short-term agreement there

:06:46.:06:48.

is to restore calm, there is a longer store agreement in place to

:06:49.:06:52.

restore some of the underlying issues of the conflict here. Earlier

:06:53.:06:57.

there was a new development. Rockets fired from Lebanon into northern

:06:58.:06:58.

Israel. there was a new development. Rockets

:06:59.:07:01.

fired from This plume of smoke came from Israeli shelling in response.

:07:02.:07:05.

It has raised the question of whether this conflict could widen

:07:06.:07:08.

further. For now, Israeli raids on Gaza

:07:09.:07:14.

continue. There's more outgoing Palestinian

:07:15.:07:20.

fire. Along the border heavily-armed

:07:21.:07:25.

soldiers are lining up, preparing for another possible escalation - a

:07:26.:07:30.

ground invasion. Our Middle East correspondent is in

:07:31.:07:34.

Ashdod for us now. James, terrible scenes of damage on both sides

:07:35.:07:38.

overnight and now President Obama's offer of help to broker a ceasefire.

:07:39.:07:44.

Who chances are there of success? It is difficult to see at the moment. I

:07:45.:07:49.

should explain I am outside that petrol station that my colleague was

:07:50.:07:54.

describing in the piece. Here's one of the issues that the Americans may

:07:55.:07:59.

be offering to broker. You might hear a crowd near me. Egypt mediated

:08:00.:08:06.

previous ceasefires. It did so in 2012. Maybe the President is not

:08:07.:08:10.

tempted or prepared to get involved to mediate a ceasefire at this

:08:11.:08:15.

particular point. Israel tries to intercept as many rockets as it can.

:08:16.:08:20.

You can see emotions here are high. Very clearly the rockets landed

:08:21.:08:24.

hooer this morning. It is preparing further batteries of rockets. I

:08:25.:08:28.

think I'll hand back now. All right, James, thank you very

:08:29.:08:32.

much. Around one-tenth of NHS budgets is

:08:33.:08:39.

spent on diabetes. Today experts say thousands more people in England,

:08:40.:08:44.

with type 2 diabetes, should be considered for weight-loss surgery.

:08:45.:08:48.

Draft guidelines from the National Institute for Health and Clinical

:08:49.:08:52.

Excellence say more use of gastric bands or bypass procedures would

:08:53.:08:58.

help complications linked to obesity. It can cost up to ?15,000.

:08:59.:09:03.

Some say changes in lifestyle would be just as effective.

:09:04.:09:10.

Caroline Merrick says she has tried everything to get her weight down

:09:11.:09:14.

and improve her health. She has type 2 diabetes and is convinced the only

:09:15.:09:19.

chance of her becoming slimmer is to have weight-loss surgery. It runs in

:09:20.:09:26.

families as well. My died died from -- my dad died from diabetes

:09:27.:09:30.

complications. I am only 37. I should not worry about things I

:09:31.:09:35.

should be in my 80s. At the moment, weight-loss surgery is only

:09:36.:09:39.

considered for people who are obese, with a Body Mass Index of 35 or

:09:40.:09:43.

over. Now there are proposals to lower that. The National Institute

:09:44.:09:46.

for Health and Clinical Excellence, or NICE, says those with a BMI score

:09:47.:09:51.

of 30 should also be considered. These operations are called

:09:52.:09:58.

bariatric surgery and they work by making a person feel more full. One

:09:59.:10:03.

uses a gastric band to reduce the size of the stomach. Each operation

:10:04.:10:09.

costs around ?15,000. Can the NHS afford it? For the NHS as a whole,

:10:10.:10:14.

although there'll be some increase in investment in the short term,

:10:15.:10:19.

there'll be long-term benefits, not only in the health of patients, but

:10:20.:10:23.

also in the economic health of the service. Critics are warning that

:10:24.:10:27.

lowering the threshold for weight-loss surgery could mean the

:10:28.:10:32.

number of patients treated trebles, rising from 10,000 to 30,000.

:10:33.:10:36.

Campaigners insist there are better ways to tackle the problem.

:10:37.:10:41.

First of all, it is a serious surgery procedure. There are always

:10:42.:10:47.

risks associated with surgical procedures. It is cost effective,

:10:48.:10:52.

but a far more cost effective means would be to stop this nation from

:10:53.:10:56.

getting fatter and fatter. We were not a fat nation 40 years ago. The

:10:57.:11:00.

move to make weight-loss surgery more available is still just a

:11:01.:11:04.

proposal and people like Caroline Merrick will not know until November

:11:05.:11:07.

whether they can get the help on the NHS.

:11:08.:11:14.

With me now is our health editor. We are back to the debate about

:11:15.:11:18.

prevention verses cure and underpinning it all is the cost to

:11:19.:11:23.

the NHS. Yes, so much is to do with money and what the NHS can afford.

:11:24.:11:27.

NICE, who have put out these guidelines is adamant that the cost

:11:28.:11:32.

of these operations, the maximum of ?15,000, could be less, is more than

:11:33.:11:38.

outweighted by -- outweighed by the cost of not offering them to

:11:39.:11:42.

patients with type 2 diabetes. They could develop kidney failure. The

:11:43.:11:46.

cost in that circumstance could be a six-figure sum over a lifetime. So,

:11:47.:11:50.

these operations are good value for money. If you look at the number

:11:51.:11:54.

currently being carried out, it is about 8,000 per year in England.

:11:55.:11:58.

That has been relatively stable. It has more than doubled in the last

:11:59.:12:02.

five or six years. One reason is patients become more aware of what

:12:03.:12:06.

is available on the NHS. This is the bigger question, to what extent can

:12:07.:12:10.

taxpayers carry on funding the growing demands of society? The

:12:11.:12:13.

growing population, the ageing population, and people wanting

:12:14.:12:17.

certain procedures, which they are perfectly entitled to. It is a big

:12:18.:12:21.

debate. Many are saying that a lot more focus needs to be on

:12:22.:12:24.

prevention, stopping people becoming obese in the first place, rather

:12:25.:12:28.

than having to pick up the pieces later. Thank you very much.

:12:29.:12:33.

The taxpayer could be out of pocket by as much as ?1 billion because the

:12:34.:12:39.

Government sold Royal Mail too cheaply. That is the view of the MPs

:12:40.:12:42.

on the business Select Committee. They say ministers underestimated

:12:43.:12:46.

the demand for shares. The Government insist the MPs have used

:12:47.:12:50.

the benefit of hind site for their report.

:12:51.:12:54.

Last autumn, and it all seemed to be going so well.

:12:55.:13:00.

When the Government sold 70% of the Royal Mail, there were sighs of

:13:01.:13:05.

relief that at last, after years of trying and failing, the state-owned

:13:06.:13:09.

asset had finally been successfully privatised. Demand was so high that

:13:10.:13:14.

as soon as the shares started trading, the price rose sharply. The

:13:15.:13:18.

Royal Mail was privatised in October. The price was 330 p a

:13:19.:13:26.

share. By January that had risen to 615 p.

:13:27.:13:30.

Since then, it has fallen back and is now about 470 p.

:13:31.:13:34.

The Government has defended its position, saying that the sale was a

:13:35.:13:38.

success. Our core objective was to put the

:13:39.:13:42.

Royal Mail in a position where it can continue to deliver the

:13:43.:13:46.

universal service, that is a six-day a week delivery system. They raised

:13:47.:13:52.

a substantial amount of money. The taxpayer has a significant

:13:53.:13:56.

shareholding. Opposition politicians argue that the taxpayer was

:13:57.:14:01.

short-changed and banks gave bad advice to the coalition about how

:14:02.:14:04.

much demand there would be for the shares. The business department did

:14:05.:14:09.

not attach appropriate value to Royal Mail when they were selling

:14:10.:14:13.

it. What this has resulted in is a first-class short-change ing of the

:14:14.:14:17.

taxpayer to the tune of hundreds of millions of pounds. This is

:14:18.:14:21.

staggering incompetence on a grand scale. The Government is now

:14:22.:14:27.

reviewing how it sells assets it owns to avoid controversy in the

:14:28.:14:30.

future. The next major sale is likely to be the 25% of Lloyds Bank

:14:31.:14:37.

that the coalition still owns. We knew the Government was accused

:14:38.:14:42.

of underpricing, but this report is particularly scathing. It is. It

:14:43.:14:46.

extends the criticism. There is the pricing issue first. The National

:14:47.:14:49.

Audit Office did report that the public could have missed out on ?750

:14:50.:14:54.

million. Now, the committee of MPs are saying that could have been ?1

:14:55.:14:58.

billion because that first price it set when it sold it was too low.

:14:59.:15:03.

Then it moves on to advice. The Government when it is selling a

:15:04.:15:08.

publiced a set takes advice -- a public asset takes advice from

:15:09.:15:13.

banks. Did they give advice about how much demand there would be for

:15:14.:15:16.

shares. The committee says that advice was not the best it should

:15:17.:15:20.

have been. The third is property - the rail mail, I am sure many of our

:15:21.:15:32.

viewers knows owns lots of big The committee said the price put on the

:15:33.:15:36.

portfolio was too low. We are looking forward to Lord Myners

:15:37.:15:40.

comedy will look at these issues to try to untangle how the government

:15:41.:15:43.

sells public assets. That he will look at these issues. It is after

:16:13.:16:27.

England had to close maternity units to women in labour at least once,

:16:28.:16:32.

because of a lack of staff or beds. A freedom of information request by

:16:33.:16:36.

the BBC suggests the pressures are Wales had similar problems,

:16:37.:16:39.

but no units in Scotland or Northern Ireland had

:16:40.:16:44.

to divert women in labour. Here's our Health correspondent

Branwen Jeffreys. They keep homebirth, knowing that

:16:48.:16:59.

the hospital was minutes away, but when the midwife said she had to go

:17:00.:17:03.

in, the unit was so busy it had closed temporarily. Vicky went in an

:17:04.:17:08.

ambulance, sirens blaring, to a hospital much further away. A choice

:17:09.:17:15.

she would never have made as her partner does not dry. I was not at

:17:19.:17:27.

to go to hospital, I am not silly, but being so far away from home, it

:17:28.:17:33.

was far from ideal. Out of 162 trusts with maternity units in

:17:34.:17:37.

England, 121 responded to this Freedom information request, half of

:17:38.:17:42.

them had closed the unit at least once to new admissions. 12% had more

:17:43.:17:46.

than ten temporary closures last year. The situation is no better

:17:47.:17:51.

than in 2008, when similar figures were gathered.

than in 2008, when similar figures were gathered. Closures often happen

:17:53.:17:56.

when there are not enough midwives to make sure of a safe service,

:17:57.:18:01.

campaigners say it can have a big impact on women's experience of

:18:02.:18:05.

giving birth. It is a really disruptive and shocking experience

:18:06.:18:08.

the women, who are probably in advance to Labour to be told they

:18:09.:18:12.

have to get back into a car and go to a different place. The government

:18:13.:18:18.

says there are 1700 more midwives than before the last election. And

:18:19.:18:23.

more midwife led units in England to offer women real choice. But there

:18:24.:18:27.

are calls for more midwives to cope with demand. Our figures tell us and

:18:28.:18:34.

our members tell us that we are 4500 midwives short. You can understand

:18:35.:18:40.

why midwives, the heads of department have to make these tricky

basis. Scarlet arrived safely after an emergency Caesarean section, in

the council says recycling bins will be emptied more frequently,

:19:20.:19:23.

but residents have expressed concerned about rats,

bad smells and rubbish build-up. Our correspondent Judith

:19:26.:19:27.

Moritz is in Bury. Yes, and here in Bury, rubbish bins

:19:28.:19:40.

are a big deal, they have four kinds, garden, glass, paper and

:19:41.:19:45.

general household waste. It is the great general household waste which

:19:46.:19:51.

are proving the most controversial. -- the grey ones. General household

:19:52.:19:57.

waste is currently collected here every fortnight but now there is a

:19:58.:20:01.

plan to collect the grey bins every three weeks and it is a subject that

:20:02.:20:06.

has got everybody talking. After three weeks it will be unbearable,

:20:07.:20:10.

we are planning to go to the tip in between because we need to get rid

:20:11.:20:14.

of rubbish. It might suit some areas but not for us. We want them to do

:20:15.:20:23.

it once a week if anything, that would be ideal. We manage recycling

:20:24.:20:27.

quite well. If it is inadequate after two weeks, I do not really

:20:28.:20:31.

have an issue with three week collection. The council needs to cut

:20:32.:20:37.

costs and argues this will save more than three quarters of ?1 million.

:20:38.:20:42.

Councillors also save recycling will be increased to compensate, which

:20:43.:20:45.

should reduce the amount of rubbish which Bury sends to the landfill,

:20:46.:20:49.

:20:50.:20:59.

into one of the greenest authorities in the country, in terms of

recycling and environment. The local government minister says the plan is

:21:05.:21:07.

a bad decision and is concerned fewer collections could lead to more

:21:08.:21:11.

fly-tipping. But if the plans are passed, three weekly collections

from Rio de Janeiro. When the police arrived at the

discovered he had already gone. Detectives said the television set

released after questioning. At the time his company, Match Services,

gang who have made tens of millions of dollars from selling tickets, not

It's day two of the first Test match between

The England captain Alistair Cook is under pressure as his poor form

continued yesterday when he was out for 5 on a good batting wicket.

Joe Wilson has been watching this morning's action.

Yes, lunchtime entertainment in full swing in and around Trent Bridge at

:26:09.:26:15.

the moment, a decent morning session for England with two up-and-coming

:26:16.:26:18.

batsmen making half centuries. Still the only man out so far, the pall of

:26:19.:26:26.

captain, Alastair Cook. -- the captain. Foremost amongst the issues

:26:27.:26:29.

in the mind of Alastair Cook leaving last night would have been a sense

:26:30.:26:33.

he let his team-mates down, as patient as he is with supporters

:26:34.:26:38.

he's desperate to contribute to the scoreboard. The responsibility was

:26:39.:26:41.

left to the inexperienced, Sam Robson in his third Test match

:26:42.:26:45.

guiding the ball into open space, any field is nearby arriving now.

:26:46.:26:52.

The idea is to keep the ball and hopefully the body on the other side

:26:53.:26:56.

of the boundary! While seeing the funny side of sport is essential,

:26:57.:26:59.

especially when you are struggling, Alastair Cook would have had my Sam

Robson 's composure even against the Indian bowling which is some way

:27:06.:27:08.

from fearsome. Nottinghamshire is famous for bowlers, but this match

:27:09.:27:13.

is now about steady and studious batting. England began the day 414

:27:14.:27:19.

runs behind. Sam Robson was trying to score when he could. But

:27:20.:27:23.

protecting the wicket was the priority. Ishant Sharma seeking any

:27:24.:27:27.

small sign of opportunity. Plenty of time to wonder about what you were

:27:28.:27:32.

doing. Extravagance in the seating, restraint in the middle, Gary

:27:33.:27:36.

Ballance saw a ball he could hit. Discretion is the art of Test match

:27:37.:27:40.

batting, after scoring virtually nothing he hit three fours in one

:27:41.:27:44.

over. This is how England will fight their way back into the match. And

:27:45.:27:50.

just to recapture state of the match, England 131-1, 326 runs

:27:51.:27:58.

behind. With a neat symmetry. In a few minutes time, Robson and

Ballance will resume on 59 not out. STUDIO: Thank you for joining us.

We've had some glorious sunshine outside today but not everywhere has

seen it. This satellite picture shows it nicely. This area of cloud

from the West and another area of stubborn cloud around the East. The

:28:22.:28:26.

radar picture shows it has been producing heavy rain already today.

:28:27.:28:30.

There could be more showers to come from the cloudy area over the next

:28:31.:28:35.

few hours. Some sunshine the many areas in Scotland and Wales and the

south-west of England. We are keeping the stubborn cloud through

showers but most places will not see them. Across northern England

slightly cloudy, cool around the East Coast. Scotland will have the

lions share of the sunshine with temperatures around 23 degrees. If

you are heading to Trent Bridge today for the cricket it should be

:29:15.:29:19.

predominantly dry, but cloud could come over, temperatures around 23

:29:20.:29:25.

degrees which will feel pleasant. This evening we might have some

weather, there will be outbreaks of rain and showers but equally some

sunshine. Feeling pretty warm, especially during Saturday. This is

and eastern areas with temperatures around 25 degrees. Fresher in the

West with the breeze and outbreaks of rain. Into Sunday it will feel

fresher. This weather front is going east. The chants of heavy showers,

but equally some sunshine and temperatures about 17-23?. Plenty of
