Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
David Cameron is promising the biggest reform of the prison | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
In a speech today he called the failures of prisons | :01:46. | :01:53. | |
in England and Wales - with high levels of violence | :01:54. | :01:55. | |
Six new 'reform prisons' are to replace | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
GPS tags could be fitted to non violent criminals, | :02:00. | :02:07. | |
so they go home during the week, or on day release. | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
And prison league tables would be published - | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
and those with the lowest level of re-offending could get more cash. | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
Here's our Home Affairs correspondent Daniel Sandford. | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
David Cameron this morning, walking into a prison system where violence | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
is rising, murders are at record levels and the number of prisoners | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
reoffending after their prison time remains stubbornly high. A system | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
that sometimes works but often does not. We need a prison system that | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
does not see prisoners as liabilities to be managed but as | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
potential assets to be harnessed. But the failure of our system today | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
is scandalous. 46% of all prisoners will reoffend within one year of | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
rerelease. And current levels of prison violence, drug taking and | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
self harm should shame us all. While it is not unusual for a Prime | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
Minister to make a speech about crime it is unusual for one to | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
commit himself so strongly to prison reform which is perhaps why in the | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
21st century so many inmates are still held in Victorian jails. At | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
the heart of his proposed wholesale reform is better education. These in | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
rates were learning bicycle maintenance but he also wants to | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
give prison governors more power to run their jails as they see best. | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
And even for staff to get bonuses where reoffending rates are low. But | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
business for as say he's avoiding the biggest questions like how many | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
people should be in prison in the first place. I think it has to look | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
first at principles and what the purpose of prison is. What do we | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
want prisons to do, who should be in prisons, what are the outcomes we | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
would expect because right now they are failing and that is seen in | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
reoffending rates and also the other issues. The Prime Minister wants to | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
look at a new satellite tag which would allow the tagging of some | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
offenders, they would keep their jobs and only go to prison at the | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
weekend. Technology is not always the answer. In Brixton prison this | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
afternoon I met Ensley, in for his second time behind bars and helping | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
at the National prison radio station. He says it wasn't prison | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
but failed to reform and the first time, it was what happened after he | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
was released. Won I couldn't sort out my housing. That is what led to | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
me reoffending. I felt I wasn't getting any help and advice | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
frustrating. Jails in England and Wales keep offenders of the street | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
but often it is only a temporary fix. The Prime Minister is now | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
offers in what he calls full on prison reform. Daniel Sandford, in | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
Brixton prison. With me now is Our Home | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
Editor - Mark Easton. Quite a claim, the biggest reforms | :04:57. | :05:04. | |
since Victorian times. The government has given itself quite a | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
challenge, prisons are expensive and too many prisoners reoffend and | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
another Prime Minister says they will solve both problems at the same | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
time, reducing cost and improving performance simultaneously. David | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
Cameron said his government could do more with less. How to square that | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
circle with presence? Since coming to power the Conservatives have | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
repeatedly talked about increasing local control and competition in | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
prison as a way of pushing up standards without pushing up the | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
cost. And we got more on that today in what was a wide ranging speech | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
but as you have heard, some argue that the Prime Minister sidestepped | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
the biggest issue of the more, the fact that we have so many people in | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
prison, consistently high numbers. The prison population, said the | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
Prime Minister, was a matter for judges, not him. But many prison | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
governors will say that only when you sort out the chronic | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
overcrowding will they be in a position to deal with what the Prime | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
Minister admitted was a scandalous failure. Thank you. | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
Winds of almost 100 miles an hour have battered parts of southern | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
England and Wales - more than fifteen thousand homes | :06:11. | :06:12. | |
Road, train and ferry services have been disrupted. | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
Coastal areas have borne the brunt of the bad weather. | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
Duncan Kennedy is in Lymington in Hampshire. | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
Duncan? George, it is almost 12 hours since Storm Imogen began, and | :06:21. | :06:31. | |
it is still battering parts of southern England and Wales. Here in | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Hampshire for instance the winds are still gusting at 70 files mile -- | :06:35. | :06:42. | |
miles per hour. It is disrupted everything, ferry and train services | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
and the roads. And 15,000 homes are tonight without electricity because | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
power lines have been brought down. Also tonight we've had these reports | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
that two young children in the Midlands have been injured after a | :06:56. | :06:56. | |
wall came down on top of them. From Devon to Dartford, the southern | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
part of Britain powerful storm of the winter. This | :07:04. | :07:18. | |
close, just like in Aberystwyth where mountainous waves churned over | :07:19. | :07:26. | |
the seafront. This is Barton on Sea, near Bournemouth. As you can see, | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
the waves are trundling in here, at speeds of 90 mph, the winds are | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
mocking us over, it is hard to stand up. In some places waves have been | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
14 metres high. It's been up. In some places waves have been | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
like this for several hours. That did not stop people coming | :07:49. | :07:50. | |
like this for several hours. That experience it for themselves. What | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
do you think of this? Horrendous, absolutely horrendous. Really, | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
really rough. The wind is so strong. We've just come down for a couple | :08:02. | :08:02. | |
really rough. The wind is so strong. days to see the weather. Quite a | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
spectacle. Hard to stand up. I can't open my car door, the wind is too | :08:10. | :08:19. | |
strong! In Worcestershire this wall collapsed on two children, seriously | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
injuring a boy of four and a girl of seven. It follows concerns raised | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
about the war two weeks ago. Basically it hit two children in the | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
process of collapsing. They were quickly removed from under the | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
initial rubble and were treated on the scene by Ambulance Service | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
personnel. Transport networks have been disrupted everywhere, from | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
submerged tracks in Wales to blocked ones at Bodmin in Cornwall with | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
passengers having to climb onto the track after the train hit a tree. We | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
had to wait here all the time, we had a few classes and we have missed | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
them. It's very annoying. 15,000 homes also had their electricity cut | :09:01. | :09:07. | |
in this storm. After a mild, uneventful winter of weather so far | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
in the South, storm Imogen has been a reminder of the season's power. | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
A second inquest into the death of Private Cheryl James at Deepcut | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
Barracks 20 years ago has heard that she may not | :09:23. | :09:24. | |
The lawyer for the family says there's new evidence which needs | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
Cheryl James, who was 18, was found with a single gunshot | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
Our Home Affairs correspondent June Kelly reports. | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
Cheryl James passed out from the Army in the summer of 1995. | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
This footage was filmed by her family. | :09:43. | :09:43. | |
Six months after she joined up, they were told she was dead. | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
Cheryl, in the weeks before she was fatally injured | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
with a single bullet wound to her head. | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
Today her father Des described how is she seemed to thrive in the | :09:59. | :10:09. | |
military and was like a burst of the Army. He and his wife Doreen have | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
always questioned whether their vivacious teenager would have taken | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
her own life. She was one of four recruits to die at Deepcut. Today in | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
a dramatic development there by Mr Alison Foster QC said it was | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
pathological evidence which showed that the shot which killed Private | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
Cheryl James meant not have been self-inflicted. The barrister for | :10:31. | :10:43. | |
Surrey Police, John Beggs QC, in the front, described this claim is | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
extremely speculative. He was involved in highly charged exchanges | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
with Cheryl's father when he questioned Mr James's criticisms of | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
the police investigation. Des James said, I have lived through this, I | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
know what went on. The QC questioned his contract with officers, saying, | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
did it occur to you that you yourself had distracted the police? | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
The coroner stopped that line of questioning. The QC later said to | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
Cheryl's father, you are not the most impartial witness. The name of | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
Deepcut has represented a dog episode in the history of the | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
British Army. For years the families of the soldiers who died have been | :11:17. | :11:18. | |
fighting to find out what happened at the base. Now with this | :11:19. | :11:42. | |
first new inquest the death of Cheryl James will be examined in | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
detail in a public forum. This has never happened before. Des James was | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
asked about claims that Cheryl might have been depressed. He said he was | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
not aware of it and she was fine the last time the family had seen her, | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
on her 18th birthday. David Cameron has been | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
accused of scaremongering after Downing Street warned | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
that the numbers of asylum seekers coming to the UK would increase | :12:00. | :12:01. | |
if Britain left the European Union. The prime minister said he did not | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
want to give the French an excuse to tear up a deal that allows UK | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
border staff to check Here's our deputy political | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
editor, James Landale. It is called the Jungle, a makeshift | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
camp in the north of France with its own libraries and war and scholar. | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
Thousands of migrants who David Cameron said could end up in Britain | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
if we vote to leave the European Union and France sends border staff | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
home. There are any number of opposition politicians in France who | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
would love to tear up the excellent agreement we have with funds to make | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
sure that we have our borders on their side of the channel. I don't | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
think we should give those politicians any excuse to do that. | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
The deal he talks about was agreed by Tony Blair in 2003. It allowed | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
British border officials to check and block asylum seekers on French | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
soil. S instead of declaring refugees from Calais, as was hoped, | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
they continued to come. Now French politicians warned that they could | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
tear up the Treaty of Britain left the EU. The Prime Minister is right | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
to say that France would probably break the treaty and we'd go back to | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
the types of numbers that we had, 80,000 plus, before that treaty was | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
made, in 2003. But instead of gathering in one camp like in Cali | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
officials claimed that many of these migrants would probably spread out | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
across the south of England with only some of them held in detention | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
centres. David Cameron is making this warning because he wants people | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
to be aware of what he sees as one risk of leaving the EU. The danger | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
is that if the strategy backfires and people think he's being alarmist | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
is no longer making the positive case for staying in. In Calais this | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
week there were yet more protests against migration. In London today | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
the Prime Minister's critics dismissed what they called his sad | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
and disappointing tactics. Not only is it irresponsible scaremongering, | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
it is wrong. First it is a treaty between Britain and France nothing | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
to do with the EU, and secondly, the French government have said that if | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
they had an open border with the UK to be an humanitarian disaster in | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
Calais and it is not a cause they would pursue. The real risk is that | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
there's nothing in the negotiation that restricts the free movement of | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
people from Europe. A referendum that many thought would focus on the | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
economic risks of remaining only thing in the EU will also involve a | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
debate about immigration and the future of camps like these. | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
Dissident Republicans have said they carried out a shooting | :14:40. | :14:41. | |
in Dublin last week, in which a man was killed and two | :14:42. | :14:43. | |
A man claiming to speak for the Continuity IRA told the BBC | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
Our Ireland Correspondent Chris Buckler reports. | :14:48. | :15:04. | |
police officers, but it is now claimed they were members of the | :15:05. | :15:33. | |
continuity IRA. Everybody was forced to run for their lives as they began | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
firing shots. One man was injured and the police are concerned about | :15:38. | :15:40. | |
the possibility of more violence. Armed officers have made themselves | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
very visible, staging checkpoints around the city. Up till now, they | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
have linked it with organised crime gangs but now they need to consider | :15:49. | :15:50. | |
the possibility that dissident Republicans were involved. In a | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
statement, the Continuity IRA claimed the members killed the man | :15:56. | :16:03. | |
in this hotel in retaliation. They said they were prepared to carry out | :16:04. | :16:11. | |
other attacks against people who they called drug dealers and | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
criminals. Dissident groups like the Continuity IRA present themselves as | :16:18. | :16:25. | |
against the political progress that has happened in Ireland and across | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
the border. But the police say it can lead them to violent conflict | :16:30. | :16:36. | |
with other gangs. The claim by this group calling themselves the | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
Continuity IRA, it does not matter what they call themselves, they | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
cannot be allowed to act in this manner. There is no way of verifying | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
the claim but the Irish police have spent a third day gathering evidence | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
at the hotel where the shooting took place and they've | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
at the hotel where the shooting took pictures, some of which show the gun | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
men running from the hotel carrying a | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
The top story this should be places of hope says David | :17:10. | :17:17. | |
Cameron but critics say he should sort out the overcrowding first. | :17:18. | :17:19. | |
Still to come... The Denver Broncos got the victory | :17:20. | :17:31. | |
but it was Beyonce who stole the show. | :17:32. | :17:33. | |
And coming up on Reporting Scotland at 6.30... | :17:34. | :17:35. | |
All the action of amputee football is coming to Scotland | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
Scientists in Edinburgh have developed an IQ test especially | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
It's been described as the UK's biggest engineering project | :17:43. | :17:54. | |
Gas is coming onshore from a major new plant on Shetland. | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
It's expected to provide eight percent of all the UK's gas needs | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
That's enough to power around 2 million homes. | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
The Laggan-Tormore project is a massive ?3.5bn development | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
But - with the recent collapse in energy prices - | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
there's concern over whether the investment will pay off. | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
Yes, this very big, very expensive development is accessing previously | :18:21. | :18:44. | |
untapped fields. The turning on of the gas comes at a difficult time | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
for the wider offshore industries. It has taken five years, billions of | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
pounds and thousands of workers to build it. Here is fresh gas from the | :18:56. | :19:05. | |
newly capped reserves, coming out to shore. This project has pushed the | :19:06. | :19:16. | |
limits of what is possible. This is one of the longest in the world, and | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
the deepest in the UK. We are pushing the boundaries rather than | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
the technology but even then we are stretching that as well. Getting the | :19:26. | :19:28. | |
gas as sure is technically challenging. There is this huge gas | :19:29. | :19:40. | |
plant but a really significant part of what is going on is taking place | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
miles out to sea. There are no platforms to be seen. There are long | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
pipelines which transport the gas almost 100 miles back to shore. But | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
this was all commissioned when the price of oil and gas was far more | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
buoyant. It is not clear how profitable it will be. We need to | :20:01. | :20:07. | |
look at it long term. I think the big focus is to make sure these | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
fields operate in the most cost-effective manner. | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
fields operate in the most have commissioned it in the current | :20:18. | :20:21. | |

I think this project had some difficult points. Very | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
I think this project had some say whether we could sanction it or | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
not. These islands have been sheltered from the worst of the | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
downturn. Shetland is the only place in Britain to have a sovereign | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
wealth fund worth hundreds of millions of pounds. It has meant a | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
tremendous amount to Shetland. It was a pure place for thousands of | :20:54. | :21:00. | |
years and has been prosperous for the last 40 or so. The water west of | :21:01. | :21:08. | |

A school in the Indian city of Bangalore had an unwelcome | :24:37. | :24:38. | |
visitor over the weekend when a male leopard broke in. | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
Six people, who were hurt trying to capture the big cat, | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
have been treated for minor injuries. | :24:45. | :24:45. | |
It took nearly 10 hours to catch the leopard which had wandered | :24:46. | :24:48. | |
It's estimated that India has a leopard population | :24:49. | :24:51. | |

The Denver Broncos may have have beaten the Carolina Panthers to win | :24:56. | :25:05. | |
the American Football Superbowl - but it was the singer Beyonce's | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
half-time performance which stole the show - | :25:10. | :25:11. | |
With more than 100 million Americans watching, Beyonce chose to make a | :25:12. | :25:38. | |
statement at the Super Bowl. This was a black power anthem, complete | :25:39. | :25:46. | |
with defiant fests and headwear reminiscent of the Black Panther | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
movement, born in the racial turmoil of the 1960s. After the performance, | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
some of the dancers held a sign asking for justice for Mariel Woods. | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
He was shot dead, reportedly because he refused to put down a knife. The | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
new video hammers home the message, stop shooting us. On social media | :26:10. | :26:17. | |
there was much praise for Beyonce. There was criticism as well, with | :26:18. | :26:27. | |
comments such as the following. This was a reminder that this country has | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
not settled its differences. At times it felt like Beyonce was | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
asking a question of her fellow Americans, which side are you on? | :26:38. | :26:44. | |
What about the storms? Here is the weather. Thankfully, this dramatic | :26:45. | :26:55. | |
scene has been taken at a distance, but even inland there has been on | :26:56. | :27:02. | |
destruction. Trees have been uprooted. By stark contrast, in the | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
eye of the storm it has been beautifully calm. This shot was | :27:09. | :27:18. | |
taken in the Trossachs. The strong wind will modulate but there will | :27:19. | :27:21. | |
still be some waves overtopping the coast. This whether further north | :27:22. | :27:28. | |
but still further north will be a bright and crisp frosty start. Then | :27:29. | :27:35. | |
there is that wetter weather. Quite a lot of rain and hill snow as well. | :27:36. | :27:43. | |
Further south, the wind will not be as strong, there will be sunshine, | :27:44. | :27:47. | |
there will be a net in the air but it will be much more serene. Further | :27:48. | :27:57. | |
north, this band of wet weather will slip southwards. Some snow over the | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
high ground which should not cause too many problems. Most of us will | :28:04. | :28:10. | |
see sunshine. It will feel cold, and that will continue through the rest | :28:11. | :28:14. | |
of the week, fast forward to Wednesday. Some showers across the | :28:15. | :28:22. | |
far north-west. In between, plenty of Sunni and cold weather. Looking | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
further ahead towards the end of the week and it looks as though another | :28:27. | :28:29. | |
area of low pressure will come in from the west. Not a damaging wind | :28:30. | :28:34. | |
but there is a prospect of rain. It will be a long way off. Thank you. | :28:35. | :28:41. | |
