Facebook now says it will look into it. | :00:12. | :00:15. | |

Facebook says it will look into secret groups on its website, | :01:10. | :01:33. | |
exposed by the BBC, that are being used to groom | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
children and exchange obscene images. | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
The social media company, which has more than a billion users | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
worldwide, actively promotes family values and takes pride | :01:43. | :01:44. | |
But the BBC has uncovered, groups invisible to ordinary users, | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
that have been set up by paedophiles who try to lure in young children. | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
A warning, Angus Crawford's report contains some disturbing material. | :01:54. | :02:01. | |
Neil Ivel calls himself a paedophile hunter. | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
He and his wife pretend to be young girls online to expose the men that | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
This man, Lee Hardy, pleaded guilty and was sent to prison. | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
Why would you do that to a 12-year-old? | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
Hardy was a member of a secret group. | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
Facebook settings mean these groups are invisible to non-members. | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
We know there is a dark side of the web. | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
Everyone thinks Facebook is brilliant. | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
Put a status update, going to the shops, | :02:40. | :02:41. | |
We decided to find out for ourselves, setting | :02:42. | :02:49. | |
up our own fake profile, gaining access to closed | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
Many of the pictures in these groups are obscene, indecent. | :02:53. | :02:59. | |
But what is disturbing is that many other pictures appear to have been | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
stolen and disgusting comments have been written | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
Facebook actively promotes its family values and takes pride | :03:08. | :03:18. | |
So surely they would quickly remove this type of material, | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
So we used Facebook's own report button to tell them about some | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
But the majority were not taken down. | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
They did not breach the company's standards. | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
The picture of this girl in bra and pants wasn't taken down. | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
Nor was this one, in a group called Cute Teen Schoolies. | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
We reported a whole group, too, called We Love Skoolgirlz. | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
We showed what we'd found to the Children's | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
It would be completely necessary in my view for Facebook to be | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
seeking out, at very least, the very obvious titles of these | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
From what we've shown you, are they doing enough? | :04:05. | :04:13. | |
We asked Facebook for an interview but our request was refused, | :04:14. | :04:21. | |
so we caught up with the company's head of public policy at an event | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
When it comes to specific groups, I think it's important | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
we investigate them, so if you share the details with me | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
I can work with my colleagues who do the investigations and make sure | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
we investigate them and remove content that shouldn't be there, | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
and also deal directly with law enforcement to make sure | :04:39. | :04:40. | |
they are aware of these groups and we follow that proper process. | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
That's important that we do that, and we can give you our commitment | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
The worst that we found we handed to police. | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
Facebook says it will also investigate. | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
But how many more such groups exist, and are Facebook's procedures robust | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
enough to find them and shut them down? | :04:59. | :05:10. | |
There are a lot of children on Facebook. How worried should parents | :05:11. | :05:19. | |
be? It is worrying that we need a sense of proportion. Most Facebook | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
users have a safe and enjoyable experience. But maybe this raises a | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
warning and the question. The warning is for parents. These | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
groups, by their nature, are invisible to anyone but members, so | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
even if you friend your child is to monitor them, you will not see these | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
groups. What is the solution? Talk to them, explained that their online | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
life should mirror their real-world life. If a stranger said, come to a | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
secret place, you would say No. The question for Facebook is, it has 1.6 | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
billion users, 350 million photographs are uploaded every day. | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
The question for them is, has Facebook got too big to police its | :06:04. | :06:04. | |
own content? The UN says aid deliveries to some | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
besieged areas in Syria could begin within 24 hours, after world powers | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
agreed to press for a pause The agreement, reached in Germany, | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
came shortly after President Bashar al-Assad said he intends to fight | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
on until he's brought the whole Syria's biggest, most | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
beautiful city now This month tens of thousands | :06:21. | :06:35. | |
are fleeing Russia's bombing there. Moscow says it is striking | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
terrorists from so-called Islamic The West says it's mainly bolstering | :06:43. | :06:44. | |
the Syrian military in its fight But now, in Munich | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
in the early hours, the world's most powerful diplomat | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
emerged to say they had finally agreed a truce among | :06:56. | :06:57. | |
the warring sides. We have agreed to implement | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
a nationwide cessation of hostilities to begin | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
in a target of one week's That's ambitious, but everybody | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
is determined to move as rapidly And Russia's Sergey Lavrov spoke | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
of a return to peace In the bright light | :07:16. | :07:23. | |
of day, the doubts Most of all about | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
Russia's intentions. It is possible the Russians | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
had limited military objectives and, actually, | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
over the last month or so they've largely achieved them, | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
and that they genuinely are now ready to see a scaling down | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
of military activity. But we won't know that for sure | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
until we see the Russians delivering Today Syria's rebel leaders | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
are raising objections. So is Syria's President | :07:52. | :08:00. | |
Assad, who spoke TRANSLATION: We have fully believed | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
in negotiations and in political action since the beginning | :08:04. | :08:13. | |
of the crisis. However, if we negotiate, | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
it does not mean we will The two tracks are | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
separate from each other. Syria's war is also a major | :08:19. | :08:26. | |
humanitarian crisis. Munich's deal means | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
government and rebel forces must let aid enter besieged areas | :08:30. | :08:37. | |
where people are starving. Imagine that we have several convoys | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
for several days and repeat it any time we operate, would that | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
not make a difference? Do you think this | :08:45. | :08:46. | |
is a turning point? Strong words have | :08:47. | :08:48. | |
emerged here in Munich. The next week will make it clear | :08:49. | :08:56. | |
whether this was a major breakthrough that could help ease | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
the suffering of Syrian civilians or whether it's another | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
major setback that will make The printing presses | :09:05. | :09:06. | |
at the Independent newspaper will fall silent next month as it | :09:07. | :09:17. | |
becomes the first national paper The Independent was launched 30 | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
years ago, but the latest circulation figures show it's now | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
only selling around 50,000 David Sillito examines | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
the paper's demise. 30 years ago, it was set up with a | :09:29. | :09:44. | |
vision to be bold, innovative and above all independent of the | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
political tribes. Over the years, its front covers have been | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
startling. It was the first broadsheet to switch to tabloid, and | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
now with a heavy heart, it is the first to give up on print. It has | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
been a tough day, and lots of people have had a painful day. Having said | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
that, as I said to staff, think it is the right thing for the | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
Independent. We are going to wear our readers are, embracing a digital | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
future, and this transition is completely necessary. The | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
announcement about selling its sister paper was made yesterday. | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
Today's announcement was hardly a surprise. At its peak, the | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
Independent was selling 425,000 copies a day. 25 years on, weekday | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
sales are closer to 30,000. This has gone further and moved faster than | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
elsewhere but every newspaper is travelling in the same direction. No | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
one has found a way of making money out of digital in the way they used | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
to have to print. And remember, when it was set up, this was not just a | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
journalistic adventure. This was the cutting edge of new technology. 30 | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
years on, going digital seems inevitable to its joint founder and | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
first editor. Not only are all newspapers across the world losing | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
circulation, but they are losing advertising income very seriously. | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
So it's a double whammy. The only question is, when do you come to | :11:19. | :11:27. | |
terms with it? And so on its website today, news of the Independent's new | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
future. Goodbye to print, and also more than half the 200 staff. | :11:31. | :11:36. | |
Digital news may be the future, but paying for it is the problem. | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
The entertainer Rolf Harris has been charged with seven more counts | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
The youngest alleged victim was 12 years old at the time. | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
Harris, who's 85, is currently serving a six-year sentence | :11:47. | :11:48. | |
The latest charges date from 1971 to 2004 and relate to seven people | :11:49. | :11:55. | |
"Unfair" and "unreliable" - that's how teaching unions describe | :11:56. | :12:03. | |
tests for four- and five-year-olds as they start primary school. | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
Pre-primary assessments have been piloted at some schools | :12:09. | :12:10. | |
in England, with a further rollout planned in September. | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
The NUT and ATL unions warn that the measure is damaging | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
for pupils, but ministers say there has to be a baseline | :12:17. | :12:18. | |
We are going to make a rocket ship for the toys in space to be rescued. | :12:19. | :12:39. | |
For a reception teacher, observing children is part of her job. Now, | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
that assessment is becoming more formal and will be used to judge | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
what difference the school makes by age 11. Baseline testing involves | :12:48. | :12:54. | |
assessing a child's skills on a given day, including social skills | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
like listening or taking turns, literacy skills, such as using words | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
and naming letters, and in maths, things like counting or very simple | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
sums. Today, parents with children going into reception next year said | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
it was all about how it is carried out. I don't necessarily feel | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
comfortable with the idea but I recognise that it's quite an | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
important thing for a child to have an assessment, to establish whether | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
they are performing at the level they should be. I know they are a | :13:26. | :13:31. | |
bit young to have it very formal, but as long as it does not add | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
stress, think it is OK. It depends on the level of assessment and what | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
kind of pressure that may put on the children. At the age of four, it is | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
important not to put any pressure on children. This school, like many | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
others in England, has chosen a kind of assessment which involves | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
observing children whilst they do an activity. But there are two other | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
kinds being piloted which are much more formal, and it is quite | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
possible that those may be the ones the Government favours. Many | :14:05. | :14:12. | |
teachers are uneasy about testing children to judge school | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
performance, but Baseline tests already exist in Wales. Scotland | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
plans to introduce something similar. The headteacher here told | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
me it is essential that ministers in England learn from the pilots. It is | :14:24. | :14:29. | |
going to be here to stay, so it is important for the profession to | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
speak up and speak about the good things that come out of Baseline | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
assessment, and the models that actually work in the classroom. | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
Our top story this evening: which every stage is tracked. | :14:42. | :14:50. | |
Facebook has said it will investigate claims made by BBC | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
News that paedophiles are using secret groups on the site | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
And, coming up: living longer. Why 70 is now the new 50. At 6:30pm we | :14:56. | :15:10. | |
are taking to the slopes. Scotland's ski resorts are gearing up for their | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
busiest weekend of the year. Car engine parts, a carpet and an | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
aeroplane propeller, or part of this weekend's British Art show which | :15:20. | :15:21. | |
opens in Edinburgh. 20% is how much less on average | :15:22. | :15:29. | |
women earned than men in the UK. Many employers are worried, saying | :15:30. | :15:44. | |
it is too crude measure and would take into account the many reasons | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
people have different pay packets. Emma Simpson, business | :15:49. | :15:49. | |
correspondent. The busy lunchtime canteen. These | :15:50. | :15:58. | |
days it's almost a 50-50 split between men and women. Not so equal | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
when it comes to paper. At this financial firm they already | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
published the difference in earnings between the sexes and they think | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
forcing all big companies to do the same will be good for women and | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
business. This is a really big moment, as big as the publication of | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
the equal pay act in 1970. Its big because transparency will really | :16:22. | :16:23. | |
drive greater accountability for closing the gender pay gap. Is it | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
going to be difficult for businesses to do? Initially, but once the | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
processes are set up its easy. How big is the gender pay gap problem? | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
Overall women earn on average nearly 20% less than men. It includes | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
part-time women. That gap costs full-time women around ?100 a week. | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
The gap can widen according depending to the sector. In finance | :16:52. | :16:58. | |
it as big as 35%. In health care women earn nearly a quarter less | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
than men. I spoke to one group of women, two of them senior managers, | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
about the reasons why. Some men are better at saying what their | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
contribution and impact was, which can help drive the level of bonuses | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
they get. Women are more likely to talk about how the team works to | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
succeed, more collaborative approach. There could be something | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
around the opportunities available for women, the choices they make, | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
how they put themselves forward. I work in a big diverse team and I | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
haven't had any problems. I see females who are up for career | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
ladder. It's less intimidating for me to ask what I think I deserve. | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
Campaigners reckon the government could top up the gap. We would like | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
to have seen the government forcing employers to explain the reasons | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
behind the gender pay gap in the workplace and set out what action | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
they plan to take to narrow the pay gap. The changes won't take effect | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
for another two years. By then the government hopes there | :18:02. | :18:02. | |
for another two years. By then the nowhere for big employers to hide | :18:03. | :18:10. | |
the gender pay gap. The school girls are being treated in hospital after | :18:11. | :18:11. | |
being hit by a car in Liverpool. Two of the girls are said to have | :18:12. | :18:14. | |
been critically injured. The accident happened outside | :18:15. | :18:16. | |
a school this afternoon. Our correspondent Andy Gill | :18:17. | :18:18. | |
is at the scene. What more can you tell us? The | :18:19. | :18:27. | |
yellow Peugeot car said to be involved in this accident is still | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
at the scene, straddling the pavement and the road about 100 | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
yards behind the police cordoned you can see. The police to ask the | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
driver was a woman in her 80s. Witnesses described seeing the car | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
hit a group of pedestrians. This happened at 3:20pm, just at the time | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
when pupils from the nearby Belvedere School would have been | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
leaving at the end of the week. We don't know the identities of the | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
people involved in this accident yet. Police say six girls aged | :18:55. | :19:02. | |
between 11 and 13 were injured. Two critically, two seriously. Two have | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
been taken to older hey Children's Hospital, a seventh person, possibly | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
the driver of the car, taken to the Royal Liverpool Hospital. | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
Eyewitnesses told the BBC the scene at the time of the accident looked | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
like carnage, victims lying in different parts of the road. The | :19:20. | :19:22. | |
road here is likely to stay closed for some time while investigators | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
continue into this accident. Police have charged the partner | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
of the former EastEnders actress, Sian Blake, on suspicion of | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
murdering her and her two children. Arthur Simpson-Kent was detained | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
at Heathrow Airport this morning after he was | :19:36. | :19:36. | |
flown back from Ghana. The bodies of Ms Blake and her sons | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
were found in the garden of their home in south-east | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
London in December. A coroner says a new born | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
baby died of sepsis, following a series of failures | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
in the care he received at the Royal Cornwall | :19:52. | :19:54. | |

to make a long detour - That's right, this is something | :23:09. | :23:24. | |
pedestrians couldn't do six weeks ago here in Tadcaster. Walk straight | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
to the shops on the other side. The bridge took longer to build than | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
