Hello, this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Steph

:00:07.:00:09.

The latest weapon in the war against hackers, thousands

:00:10.:00:17.

of teenagers are to get lessons in cyber security.

:00:18.:00:37.

It's hoped they'll become the experts of the future

:00:38.:00:39.

and protect Britain from online attacks.

:00:40.:00:41.

Good morning it's Saturday, 11th February.

:00:42.:00:44.

President Trump says he may issue a new order authorising a travel ban

:00:45.:00:47.

after his old one was blocked by the courts.

:00:48.:00:49.

Parks under threat - a new report says funding has

:00:50.:00:52.

reached a tipping point and new ways of paying for them need to be

:00:53.:00:56.

The latest on the battle to save hundreds of whales stranded

:00:57.:01:00.

One of the biggest test yet for England, the first trip to Cardiff

:01:01.:01:13.

for Eddie Jones. Wales are banking on the home advantage to take them

:01:14.:01:15.

to the top of the Six Nations. And find out how I survived

:01:16.:01:17.

the stairway to heaven, even if it did turn

:01:18.:01:20.

my legs to jelly. Good morning to match who has the

:01:21.:01:31.

weather. A cold feeling day for all of us, snow giving a limited

:01:32.:01:38.

coaching in some areas. But for many, that is no will turn back to

:01:39.:01:40.

rain. See you soon. -- Matt. Schoolchildren are to be offered

:01:41.:01:43.

lessons in cyber-security to encourage more younger people

:01:44.:01:47.

to pursue a career in defending It's hoped that thousands

:01:48.:01:50.

of teenagers in England will spend up to four hours a week

:01:51.:01:54.

on the subject, over Here's our home affairs

:01:55.:01:57.

correspondent Tom Symonds. Daniel Kelly is a convicted teenage

:01:58.:02:09.

hacker facing a jail sentence. He took part in a massive digital

:02:10.:02:15.

break-in of TalkTalk. What if his potential had been realised at an

:02:16.:02:20.

earlier age? He may have ended up joining a new breed of apprentices

:02:21.:02:23.

learning to cyber security trade, like these. With that in mind, the

:02:24.:02:30.

government is putting up ?20 million for nearly 6000 schoolchildren aged

:02:31.:02:36.

14 and over to take four hours of cyber security lessons after school

:02:37.:02:41.

each week. We think that will help seriously with the shortage of cyber

:02:42.:02:45.

skills that we've got. We will always keep it under review, in case

:02:46.:02:50.

this needs to get bigger. But getting it going at that scale shows

:02:51.:02:55.

serious ambition to make sure that we can have a pipeline of talent we

:02:56.:02:59.

are going to need. Police are stepping up the fight, but this is

:03:00.:03:05.

not a threat that can be defeated on the ground. The cyber-crime

:03:06.:03:10.

battlefield will be online, and Britain's GCHQ will be it's command

:03:11.:03:16.

centre. 50,000 people are employed in the anti- hacking industry. More

:03:17.:03:20.

will be needed, and the government knows it has to start finding them

:03:21.:03:21.

when they are young. And after 7:00, we'll be

:03:22.:03:27.

joined by Brian Lord, who spent over 20 years

:03:28.:03:29.

as a Deputy Director Donald Trump has said he may rewrite

:03:30.:03:32.

the presidential order imposing restrictions on travel to the US

:03:33.:03:36.

to overcome the legal obstacles that have frustrated his

:03:37.:03:39.

efforts so far. His first order, stopping travel

:03:40.:03:41.

from seven mainly-Muslim countries, Our Washington correspondent

:03:42.:03:43.

David Willis has more. After a federal appeals court backed

:03:44.:03:58.

a stay of his executive order, Donald Trump vowed he would see his

:03:59.:04:04.

opponents in court. With the Supreme Court currently split along

:04:05.:04:07.

ideological lines, pending the confirmation of Neil Gorsuch, taking

:04:08.:04:12.

the matter to the highest court in the land would be a protracted

:04:13.:04:16.

process that might prove unsuccessful. Speaking en route to

:04:17.:04:21.

his weekend retreat in Florida, the president revealed he was waiting

:04:22.:04:25.

other alternatives. We will win the battle, but we also have a lot of

:04:26.:04:29.

other options, including filing a brand-new order. I like to keep you,

:04:30.:04:39.

I'd like to surprise you. It is for reasons of security. It could well

:04:40.:04:43.

be that we do. Unveiled at the end of a frantic first week in office,

:04:44.:04:47.

the original order suspended America's refugee programme and

:04:48.:04:51.

banned travellers from seven majority Muslim nations from

:04:52.:04:55.

entering the US. It caused chaos at airports and sparked protest across

:04:56.:05:00.

the country. Just how the White House might rewrite the order is not

:05:01.:05:03.

clear. Lawyers almost certainly have to address the claim that in its

:05:04.:05:09.

existing form, the order is unconstitutional and blocks entry to

:05:10.:05:14.

the United States on the grounds of religion. Mr Trump has continued to

:05:15.:05:22.

insist that tough immigration policies are essential for the

:05:23.:05:25.

country's security. The funding of parks has reached

:05:26.:05:27.

a tipping point and new ways of paying for them may

:05:28.:05:30.

have to be found. That's according to

:05:31.:05:32.

the Commons Communities and Local Government Committee

:05:33.:05:34.

which says parks are suffering It warns there's a danger

:05:35.:05:37.

of a return to the neglect Instead of regarding parks as only a

:05:38.:05:48.

sort of leisure and recreation area of service, we should be thinking

:05:49.:05:55.

about them as big contributors to public health and environmental

:05:56.:05:59.

policy, and community cohesion. And maybe they can be re- prioritise.

:06:00.:06:03.

There is fundamentally a problem about the number of cuts that local

:06:04.:06:07.

authorities have been experiencing and the distribution across the

:06:08.:06:11.

country, and the difficult decisions that most local authorities are

:06:12.:06:12.

having to make. Labour has issued formal warnings

:06:13.:06:13.

to members of its front-bench team who disobeyed Jeremy Corbyn's order

:06:14.:06:16.

to vote for Brexit. Among those who ignored Mr Corbyn

:06:17.:06:20.

were eleven shadow junior ministers A 16-year-old boy has died

:06:21.:06:25.

after he was stabbed in a busy The wounded teenager was taken

:06:26.:06:31.

from the Harehills area to hospital for treatment, but died

:06:32.:06:35.

a short time later. A 15-year-old boy has been arrested

:06:36.:06:40.

on suspicion of murder. The decision to end a scheme to let

:06:41.:06:43.

unaccompanied refugee children into the UK is shameful according

:06:44.:06:46.

to the Scottish First Minister She's urged the Prime Minister

:06:47.:06:49.

to change her mind saying there is a moral duty

:06:50.:06:53.

to help those in need. The scheme's due to end in March

:06:54.:06:58.

with 350 children being admitted far fewer than some campaigners

:06:59.:07:01.

had hoped for. Some distressing pictures

:07:02.:07:09.

from New Zealand where volunteers are trying to save around 100 whales

:07:10.:07:11.

that have become trapped Hundreds more have already died

:07:12.:07:14.

in one of the biggest ever mass It's hoped the pilot whales may be

:07:15.:07:18.

able to swim to safety As they wait for high tide,

:07:19.:07:23.

volunteers do everything they can to cool the whales, pouring water

:07:24.:07:33.

and covering them with cloth to help regulate body temperature -

:07:34.:07:37.

temporary measures until the whales Some hope that singing

:07:38.:07:39.

will prove soothing. And then, the sound

:07:40.:07:47.

of success, but it is early We had a group of volunteers

:07:48.:07:52.

camped out over night. We had a little bit

:07:53.:07:56.

of time where the whales But very quickly, this

:07:57.:07:59.

tide has come racing in, and we are all up to our knees,

:08:00.:08:03.

some up to their waists in water, and we are seeing some

:08:04.:08:07.

floating happening. We are assisting them

:08:08.:08:09.

with their breathing until the water gets deep enough

:08:10.:08:11.

for them to swim out. It is a devastating

:08:12.:08:17.

image, one of the worst whale strandings in

:08:18.:08:19.

the country's history. It is unclear what brings them en

:08:20.:08:22.

masse into Farewell Spit. One theory is that when a whale

:08:23.:08:26.

is distressed, it sends out a signal Once they are on the beach,

:08:27.:08:29.

it is hard to get them both They try to use the rising waters

:08:30.:08:39.

to guide them into the sea, but some swam straight back

:08:40.:08:53.

to the beach and most were stranded Today, volunteers are hopeful

:08:54.:08:56.

that the whales will make it out A 30-foot hole has appeared

:08:57.:08:59.

in a section of the tallest dam Large amounts of water can

:09:00.:09:03.

be seen spilling out at the Lake Oroville Dam

:09:04.:09:07.

in Northern California. Officials say there's no immediate

:09:08.:09:13.

threat that it will fail. Water levels in the reservoir had

:09:14.:09:16.

risen due to heavy rain and snow. A dramatic crash has been caught

:09:17.:09:21.

on camera in County Armagh CCTV footage shows the moment

:09:22.:09:24.

a slurry tank crashes through the garden wall

:09:25.:09:30.

of a house in Glenavy. The homeowner, who was in

:09:31.:09:36.

the property at the time, said he was just glad

:09:37.:09:38.

no-one had been hurt. Let's take a look

:09:39.:09:57.

at this morning's papers. Shall I start us off? The Guardian

:09:58.:10:05.

this morning, a story about Boris Johnson. Pressing Liam Fox to

:10:06.:10:10.

continue exporting weapons to Saudi Arabia after the bombing of a

:10:11.:10:16.

funeral in Yemen last October which killed 140 people and was condemned

:10:17.:10:22.

by UN monitors. The front page includes some famous faces at the

:10:23.:10:31.

Calvin Klein show. Emily Blunt, ahead of the BAFTA is happening

:10:32.:10:38.

tomorrow. And their top story, they can use. Tim Cook, one of the bosses

:10:39.:10:47.

of Apple, calling on governments to launch a campaign to fight the

:10:48.:10:51.

scourge of fake news which he says is killing people 's minds --

:10:52.:10:57.

BAFTA's. The Times has a picture of a steward from the HMS mercy, it was

:10:58.:11:10.

a 13 month mission tackling people smuggling and drug smuggling. The

:11:11.:11:15.

Times is also saying that standing. As are ripping off cash-strapped

:11:16.:11:21.

hospitals by demanding fees of up to ?4000 per day. The Daily Mail, we

:11:22.:11:28.

will be talking about this led this morning as well. It is the end of

:11:29.:11:35.

the Iraqi historic allegations team, that has been called off. One of the

:11:36.:11:42.

human rights lawyers who was struck off over his tack Dicks, you can see

:11:43.:11:51.

the headline, at last an end to the witch-hunt -- tactics. We will also

:11:52.:11:57.

be speaking to the government about what happened. Coming up to 12

:11:58.:12:03.

minutes past six, you're watching Breakfast from BBC News. The top

:12:04.:12:04.

stories: Schoolchildren in England

:12:05.:12:08.

are going to be offered It's hoped that more than five

:12:09.:12:10.

thousand teenagers will spend up to four hours a week on the subject,

:12:11.:12:14.

over the next five years. President Trump is said to be

:12:26.:12:29.

at the 500 year history of humanity's attempts to create

:12:30.:12:34.

robots that resemble people. Here's Matt with a look

:12:35.:12:40.

at this morning's weather. Good morning. We start the weekend

:12:41.:12:51.

on a raw note, some snow around in places and into the afternoon. For

:12:52.:12:56.

many, any snow that you do see will gradually turn back to rain. Do not

:12:57.:13:01.

be fooled, it is very cold. A raw wind. This is a picture of how

:13:02.:13:06.

things are shaping up at the moment. A mixture of rain and snow on the

:13:07.:13:11.

chart. So in the hills of northern England and eastern Wales, also in

:13:12.:13:16.

Suffolk and into south-east Kent and Surrey. Looking further north and

:13:17.:13:23.

west, cold but frosty to start. The best of the brightness across the

:13:24.:13:26.

northern Highlands of Scotland and across Northern Ireland. Sleet and

:13:27.:13:31.

snow across Ireland and northern England. Snow on the hills and quite

:13:32.:13:36.

a bit of snow at the moment across eastern Wales. Elsewhere, it is a

:13:37.:13:44.

cold start. Rain and a slight wind across the south and east. Stronger

:13:45.:13:48.

winds to the south-east. Closer to gale force later. The light colours

:13:49.:13:54.

in the chart starting to diminish, snow retreating to the hills.

:13:55.:13:59.

Temperatures will be up to between three and six degrees this

:14:00.:14:03.

afternoon. But the layers on, because it will feel cold as you

:14:04.:14:07.

head through the day. If you are lucky enough to have tickets for the

:14:08.:14:11.

England- Wales match, you will definitely need to pack something

:14:12.:14:16.

warm. Through the day and tonight, Scotland and Northern Ireland

:14:17.:14:20.

staying dry. The best chance of some frost overnight. Any cloud breaks

:14:21.:14:25.

could turn a touch I see. Rain, sleet and hillslope will take us

:14:26.:14:30.

into Sunday morning. Sunday will be in other predominantly cloudy day

:14:31.:14:33.

for England and Wales. Patchy rain, sleet and snow. Rain for many,

:14:34.:14:39.

staying fairly grey. Many places will stay dry. The best and

:14:40.:14:43.

brightest skies will be to the north. With wind tomorrow, feeling

:14:44.:14:48.

that bit colder. If you aren't enjoying the chill, bear with it. It

:14:49.:14:52.

does look like things will turn left cold into next week. As a little bit

:14:53.:14:58.

of sunshine comes out and temperatures get into double figures

:14:59.:15:03.

next Tuesday and Wednesday, it will feel quite a bit better. Quite a

:15:04.:15:09.

jump in the figures, three degrees to 10 degrees. You will really

:15:10.:15:10.

notice that jump as well. A team of volunteers have been

:15:11.:15:12.

attempting to refloat 100 pilot whales stranded on a

:15:13.:15:17.

New Zealand beach. They were the lucky few that

:15:18.:15:19.

survived after more than 400 were found beached on Farewell Spit

:15:20.:15:30.

on the South Island. We can get the latest

:15:31.:15:33.

now from Andrew Lamason of the Department of Conservation,

:15:34.:15:36.

who has been leading the efforts. We must warn you of some distressing

:15:37.:15:39.

pictures during this interview. Good morning to you in New Zealand.

:15:40.:15:47.

It is early evening there. Bring us up to date if you would, Andrew, as

:15:48.:15:52.

to what is happening and what the situation is now. You're right, it's

:15:53.:15:57.

early evening now and we have asked all our volunteers to leave the

:15:58.:16:01.

beach and they are coming off as the tide comes in. You're right, we have

:16:02.:16:07.

worked hard and got the 100 whales off that survived overnight and we

:16:08.:16:12.

lost some of them, but the bad part of the story is a separate pod of

:16:13.:16:22.

240 whales are stranded, we've been fighting to keep those ones happy

:16:23.:16:27.

but it's pretty grim out here. Overnight you said that many of the

:16:28.:16:32.

whales had died, they just didn't survive? No, that's not the case.

:16:33.:16:38.

Overnight most of them survived but what happens is those ones got

:16:39.:16:42.

refloated we believe successfully and while that happened, another pod

:16:43.:16:48.

of 240 pilot whales came in and are stranded further south from where we

:16:49.:16:52.

were initially doing our work. People have been trying to care for

:16:53.:16:56.

them all afternoon and now we are pulling people of the beach because

:16:57.:17:00.

it's getting dangerous. You say the tide is coming in, is this a time

:17:01.:17:05.

where they may be able to work themselves free again? That's

:17:06.:17:09.

possible. It's not something that usually happens. We could have kept

:17:10.:17:15.

people out there a bit longer but we've had a few people getting

:17:16.:17:19.

hypothermia and we've got large schools of stingrays coming in

:17:20.:17:22.

around the volunteers, so it's too dangerous to leave people out there.

:17:23.:17:28.

There's a lot of speculation about why it is that more of the whales

:17:29.:17:33.

are there than usual and this is the biggest stranding there's been in

:17:34.:17:36.

living memory in New Zealand. Are you clear about why so many are

:17:37.:17:40.

there at this particular time? There's always a lot of marine

:17:41.:17:47.

animal activity around this area and there are a lot of these pilot

:17:48.:17:52.

whales in the Southern Ocean. These ones, Golden Bay is a classic

:17:53.:17:57.

stranding spot. A beautiful location but if you're a whale it is lethal.

:17:58.:18:04.

A big sweep of sea that curves around. The water is very shallow

:18:05.:18:10.

for a long way. As the whales come in, they get disorientated and

:18:11.:18:14.

trapped and it's all downhill from there. Looking ahead now, Andrew,

:18:15.:18:19.

it's going to be dark in a few hours time, you said the tide is coming

:18:20.:18:24.

in, what are your hopes for the next 12 hours or so? My hope for the next

:18:25.:18:29.

few hours is that all the people we have taken off the beach and manage

:18:30.:18:32.

to get somewhere warm and have a good meal and prepare themselves for

:18:33.:18:36.

another big push tomorrow morning. Like I said, it's way too risky to

:18:37.:18:42.

have anything going on now. We are trying to keep everyone refreshed

:18:43.:18:45.

and ready to go again for another push in the morning to work with

:18:46.:18:49.

whatever whales we have to work with. Andrew, thanks for your time.

:18:50.:18:53.

Andrew Lamason from the Department of Conservation, looking after the

:18:54.:18:59.

volunteers and the whales involved in the effort to try and free them

:19:00.:19:04.

and we will keep you up to date with that as things develop.

:19:05.:19:07.

We'll be back with a summary of the news at 6:30am.

:19:08.:19:10.

Now it's time for the Film Review with Mark Kermode and Jane Hill.

:19:11.:19:21.

Hello and welcome to The Film Review on BBC News.

:19:22.:19:27.

To take us through this week's cinema releases is Mark Kermode.

:19:28.:19:33.

We have the 20th Century Women, a new film starring Annette Bening.

:19:34.:19:39.

We have the Lego Batman movie, which does what it says on the tin.

:19:40.:19:45.

And Fences, a major awards contender.

:19:46.:19:52.

Let's start with 20th Century Women from Mike Mills.

:19:53.:20:07.

It is an interesting film, set in California at the end

:20:08.:20:09.

Young boy facing an uncertain adulthood, surrounded by strong

:20:10.:20:13.

women of different ages, who both inspire and also confound,

:20:14.:20:16.

brilliantly played by Annette Bening.

:20:17.:20:20.

Stop. What?

:20:21.:20:25.

Thinking that you know everything that's going on.

:20:26.:20:27.

No, I just think that, you know, having your heart broken

:20:28.:20:30.

is a tremendous way to learn about the world.

:20:31.:20:42.

OK. Do you think you're happy?

:20:43.:20:45.

..As happy as you thought you'd be when you were my age?

:20:46.:20:50.

You don't ask people questions like that.

:20:51.:20:54.

Wondering if you're happy is a great short cut to just being depressed.

:20:55.:21:17.

It has terrific performances, partly because they had time

:21:18.:21:28.

to rehearse and get to know the characters.

:21:29.:21:30.

These are characters you want to spend time

:21:31.:21:32.

We want to know about their lives and how they work out.

:21:33.:21:39.

The film has texture, you feel like at any point

:21:40.:21:43.

the camera could go out of the car, out of the house and into the street

:21:44.:21:48.

and the world would be complete around it.

:21:49.:21:50.

It evokes a world that is in many ways lost.

:21:51.:21:53.

It's back to time that now seems so distant,

:21:54.:21:55.

but the issues it deals with feel contemporary.

:21:56.:21:57.

It is not plot driven, it is to do with moments,

:21:58.:22:00.

The narrative flips back and forward to some extent.

:22:01.:22:04.

When I first started watching it, I knew nothing of what to expect,

:22:05.:22:11.

I was drawn into their world and their characters.

:22:12.:22:17.

I loved it, I can't wait to see it again, you will love it.

:22:18.:22:21.

Will it be disparagingly called a women's film?

:22:22.:22:23.

It used to be a term that was used for popular movies.

:22:24.:22:33.

Because females were the majority of the audiences.

:22:34.:22:35.

What they meant was something would be successful and a blockbuster.

:22:36.:22:40.

Anybody could see 20th-Century Women and get something out of it,

:22:41.:22:45.

Same is true of the Lego Batman movie.

:22:46.:22:50.

Which is such a surprise. Did you see the Lego movie? It was really

:22:51.:22:56.

great. It sounded like a stupid idea but it

:22:57.:22:58.

turned out to be very All age groups, I am in my 50s

:22:59.:23:04.

and I laughed all the way through. It is about Lego Batman,

:23:05.:23:10.

a narcissist, and he has to learn to have relationships with people,

:23:11.:23:16.

with Robin, his butler, and The Joker, who is desperate

:23:17.:23:19.

for him to admit he is a special villan and they have

:23:20.:23:22.

a special relationship. And what is great,

:23:23.:23:26.

the visuals are terrific, I kept wanting to hold the frame and

:23:27.:23:36.

say stop, there are so many jokes in this one frame, they're going by too

:23:37.:23:40.

fast, I can't keep up with the speed of these jokes. It is smart, it is

:23:41.:23:47.

cine literate. It is great for all

:23:48.:23:49.

ages, it is funny. Loads of exciting stuff

:23:50.:23:51.

happening on the screen. There are jokes about the '60s

:23:52.:23:53.

Batman and the Christopher Nolan You need to see The Lego Movie,

:23:54.:23:56.

because that is terrific The Lego Batman movie is tiptop

:23:57.:24:02.

stuff and doesn't let the side down. I am already feeling

:24:03.:24:14.

overwhelmed by those two. I haven't seen the film and now

:24:15.:24:16.

I feel I want to see the play. I have seen the film and now I want

:24:17.:24:21.

to see the play. Denzel Washington stars

:24:22.:24:28.

in and directs it. He works in the sanitation

:24:29.:24:32.

department. He brings home his frustrations

:24:33.:24:39.

from his work, from his life. They all come out in

:24:40.:24:42.

the home encounters. The film has got four Oscar

:24:43.:24:44.

nominations including Best Supporting Actress

:24:45.:24:46.

and here's why. You're not listening to me,

:24:47.:24:48.

I'm trying to explain it It's not easy for me to admit I've

:24:49.:24:52.

been standing in the same place Well, I've been standing with you!

:24:53.:24:58.

I've been right here with you, Troy. I've given 18 years of my life

:24:59.:25:03.

to standing in the same spot as you. Don't you think I've ever

:25:04.:25:13.

wanted other things? Don't you think I had

:25:14.:25:15.

dreams and hopes? That scene is so powerful in the

:25:16.:25:31.

play. The only problem is the film feels very stagey.

:25:32.:25:35.

There are plays that have been adapted for the screen

:25:36.:25:38.

This feels like something that has taken the stage play and filmed it.

:25:39.:25:42.

There are slight differences, but it never felt like

:25:43.:25:45.

It felt like great writing, relevant issues.

:25:46.:25:48.

Terrific committed performances that you could absolutely get behind.

:25:49.:25:50.

But it didn't take flight as a piece of film-making.

:25:51.:25:53.

That is a problem because if you take a stage play away

:25:54.:25:56.

from the stage and put it somewhere else, you have to do

:25:57.:26:00.

You really feel you wish you were seeing it live on stage,

:26:01.:26:04.

particularly with the larger speeches.

:26:05.:26:05.

It felt like a theatrical production as opposed

:26:06.:26:09.

The screenplay was written by August Wilson before he died,

:26:10.:26:13.

It is different writing for the screen and it is a craft?

:26:14.:26:24.

It is different directing that work for the screen.

:26:25.:26:27.

The classic screen adaptation of plays, they understand

:26:28.:26:29.

This is clearly a huge reverence from the stage play,

:26:30.:26:36.

I just don't think it is as cinematic as it needs to be.

:26:37.:26:42.

Despite the fact it is great writing, solid performances

:26:43.:26:44.

and great individual moments, but as a piece of cinema

:26:45.:26:47.

Coming up to the Baftas on Sunday, it is something that might win

:26:48.:26:57.

awards for the acting rather than anything else.

:26:58.:26:58.

My feeling is that is where its heart resides,

:26:59.:27:01.

The best thing out in the cinema at the moment is Toni Erdman.

:27:02.:27:10.

It is terrific, it sounds so unlikely, a three-hour

:27:11.:27:15.

a standout performance about father, daughter estrangement.

:27:16.:27:26.

A father turns up at his daughter's place of work pretending to be

:27:27.:27:29.

a life coach, and she cannot get rid of him.

:27:30.:27:32.

It is really edgy and really funny and really painful and really

:27:33.:27:35.

poignant. It is about to be remade

:27:36.:27:36.

starring Jack Nicholson. It is perfect as it is,

:27:37.:27:38.

it doesn't need remaking, I have seen the trailer and

:27:39.:27:43.

the trailer itself is interminable. I am somebody who believes

:27:44.:27:51.

in cutting to the bone, less is more, but in the case

:27:52.:28:00.

of Toni Erdman, I would not I know loads of people who have seen

:28:01.:28:04.

the trailer and not been put off it. It is a story about a young doctor

:28:05.:28:30.

who fails to open the door to a potential patient who is then found

:28:31.:28:31.

dead. No one knows who he was. He has a crisis of conscience

:28:32.:28:35.

and tries to find out who she is. It was a film, when it

:28:36.:28:39.

was in the cinema, that The best thing about DVDs,

:28:40.:28:42.

you can reassess things It is a better film than critics

:28:43.:28:51.

gave it credit for first-time around.

:28:52.:28:51.

It is a thriller, but it has a humanist heart

:28:52.:28:53.

I don't know it, so that is a good recommendation.

:28:54.:28:58.

Thank you. A quick reminder should you need it.

:28:59.:29:09.

and reviews from across the BBC online at bbc.co.uk/markkermode.

:29:10.:29:13.

And you can catch up with our previous programmes

:29:14.:29:15.

And we mentioned the Baftas, let's find out who wins

:29:16.:29:19.

Full coverage from BBC News on the red carpet.

:29:20.:29:26.

Hello, this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Steph

:29:27.:30:17.

Coming up before 7:00, Matt will have the weather for you.

:30:18.:30:32.

But first, a summary of this morning's main news.

:30:33.:30:35.

Schoolchildren are to be offered lessons in cyber-security

:30:36.:30:37.

to encourage more younger people to pursue a career in defending

:30:38.:30:40.

It's hoped that thousands of teenagers in England will spend

:30:41.:30:44.

up to four hours a week on the subject, over

:30:45.:30:47.

Here's our home affairs correspondent Tom Symonds.

:30:48.:30:49.

Daniel Kelly is a convicted teenage hacker facing a jail sentence.

:30:50.:30:55.

In 2015, he took part in a massive digital break-in of TalkTalk.

:30:56.:31:00.

What if his potential had been harnessed at an earlier age?

:31:01.:31:03.

He may have ended up joining a new breed of apprentices learning

:31:04.:31:14.

the cyber security trade, like these at BT's headquarters.

:31:15.:31:16.

With that in mind, the government is putting up ?20 million for nearly

:31:17.:31:20.

6000 schoolchildren aged 14 and over to take four hours of cyber security

:31:21.:31:23.

We think that will help seriously with the shortage of cyber skills

:31:24.:31:28.

We will always keep it under review, in case this needs to get bigger.

:31:29.:31:34.

But getting it going at that scale shows serious ambition to make sure

:31:35.:31:48.

that we can have the pipeline of talent we are going to need

:31:49.:31:52.

Police are stepping up the fight, but this is not a threat that can be

:31:53.:31:57.

defeated on the ground by raiding the hackers.

:31:58.:31:59.

The cyber-crime battlefield will be online, and Britain's GCHQ will be

:32:00.:32:02.

58,000 people are employed in the anti-hacking industry.

:32:03.:32:05.

More will be needed, and the government knows it has

:32:06.:32:08.

to start finding them when they're young.

:32:09.:32:11.

And after 7:00, we'll be joined by Brian Lord,

:32:12.:32:14.

who spent over 20 years as a Deputy Director

:32:15.:32:16.

Donald Trump has said he may rewrite the presidential order imposing

:32:17.:32:29.

in a bid overcome legal obstacles which have

:32:30.:32:33.

The President unveiled the ban at the end of his first week

:32:34.:32:37.

in office, barring entry to travellers from seven

:32:38.:32:40.

Earlier this week, an appeals court upheld the suspension

:32:41.:32:42.

The case may now proceed to the Supreme Court.

:32:43.:32:46.

The funding of parks has reached a tipping point and new ways

:32:47.:32:51.

of paying for them may have to be found.

:32:52.:32:53.

That's according to the Commons Communities

:32:54.:32:55.

and Local Government Committee, which says parks are suffering

:32:56.:32:58.

It warns there's a danger of a return to the neglect

:32:59.:33:04.

Instead of regarding parks as only a sort of leisure and recreation

:33:05.:33:08.

area of service, we should be thinking about them as big

:33:09.:33:13.

contributors to public health and environmental policy

:33:14.:33:15.

And maybe they can be re-prioritised.

:33:16.:33:20.

There is fundamentally a problem about the number of cuts that local

:33:21.:33:24.

authorities have been experiencing and the distribution

:33:25.:33:29.

across the country, and the difficult decisions

:33:30.:33:37.

that most local authorities are having to make.

:33:38.:33:41.

Labour has issued formal warnings to members of its front-bench team

:33:42.:33:44.

who disobeyed Jeremy Corbyn's order to vote for Brexit.

:33:45.:33:46.

Among those who ignored Mr Corbyn were 11 shadow junior ministers

:33:47.:33:51.

A 16-year-old boy has died after he was stabbed in a busy

:33:52.:33:56.

street in Leeds. The wounded teenager was taken from

:33:57.:33:58.

the Harehills area to hospital for treatment, but died

:33:59.:34:01.

A 15-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

:34:02.:34:05.

A team of volunteers are trying to save around 100 whales that have

:34:06.:34:08.

become trapped on a beach in New Zealand.

:34:09.:34:11.

A warning, you may find some of these pictures distressing.

:34:12.:34:13.

Hundreds more have already died in one of the biggest ever mass

:34:14.:34:17.

We worked hard and got a 100 Wales of the survived overnight. We have

:34:18.:34:36.

lost sight of them, but the remaining pot of 240 Wales have come

:34:37.:34:42.

and re- stranded just to the south of that. We are fighting to keep

:34:43.:34:46.

them happy, but it is pretty grim out here. The tide is now coming in,

:34:47.:34:54.

we will keep an eye on that story for you.

:34:55.:35:02.

The roof will be open for this one, and history tells us that favours

:35:03.:35:07.

They've won 4 of the 5 matches played with the roof open

:35:08.:35:10.

Wales wanted it shut, to intensify the atmosphere.

:35:11.:35:13.

Nevertheless, it's still sure to be a spine-tingler,

:35:14.:35:15.

in the Principality stadium, with both teams winning

:35:16.:35:17.

their opening games, and both camps have been telling us,

:35:18.:35:20.

Lots of people named Jones. It is quite amazing.

:35:21.:35:43.

We've played a bit of Tom Jones, he is from my era. They weren't too

:35:44.:35:52.

happy about hearing Delilah in the gym, they are not too familiar with

:35:53.:35:58.

that hit. In all seriousness, we have looked at the fact is that we

:35:59.:36:02.

can control and that's all we can do.

:36:03.:36:09.

Slamming the doors, the doorway gets a bit small. We have got them be

:36:10.:36:19.

5000 fans -- we have got 75,000 fans. We are renowned unfortunate

:36:20.:36:26.

Place, hopefully we can put some smiles on faces -- place.

:36:27.:36:31.

Ireland will be hoping to bounce back from their surprise defeat

:36:32.:36:34.

They face Italy in Rome in the early game, while Scotland are in Paris

:36:35.:36:39.

Away from the Six Nations and history was made

:36:40.:36:44.

in the Premiership last night, as Bristol's Tom Varndell,

:36:45.:36:47.

became the league's all-time, top try scorer.

:36:48.:36:49.

The division's bottom side were thrashed by Harlequins,

:36:50.:36:51.

but Varndell scored his 91st Premiership try, to take him

:36:52.:36:53.

A last gasp penalty from, Rhys Priestland, gave third place

:36:54.:37:02.

Bath, a one point victory over Northampton.

:37:03.:37:03.

Elsewhere Sale Sharks beat Newcastle.

:37:04.:37:16.

Scarlets moved into the top four, of the Pro 12, after an important

:37:17.:37:19.

Tom Williams scored one of their two tries.

:37:20.:37:22.

The top two of Munster, and Ospreys, both won,

:37:23.:37:25.

There's confusion over the future of the Rangers manager

:37:26.:37:28.

Rangers said in a statement that he had resigned

:37:29.:37:32.

from his position but Warburton says he wasn't aware of that

:37:33.:37:35.

Rangers are third in the Scottish Premiership but 27

:37:36.:37:39.

Under-20 coach Graeme Murty is set to lead the side in topmorrow's

:37:40.:37:43.

Scottish Cup tie with Greenock Morton.

:37:44.:38:01.

The early kick off in the Premier League is at the Emirates

:38:02.:38:04.

where Arsenal take on a rejuvenated Hull City side.

:38:05.:38:06.

Arsenal are currently in fourth but have lost their last two

:38:07.:38:09.

matches, which has led to renewed speculation over manager

:38:10.:38:12.

Former Arsenal and England striker Ian Wright thinks this will be

:38:13.:38:15.

I was with the boss last night, and to be totally honest, I got the

:38:16.:38:24.

impression that that's it. I genuinely believe, I was with him

:38:25.:38:31.

for a few hours, I just get the impression looking at him that...

:38:32.:38:36.

That's it. I think that's it. It actually mentioned when we were

:38:37.:38:40.

talking that it's coming to the end. I've never heard him say that.

:38:41.:38:42.

In the rest of the days matches, Manchester United take on Watford,

:38:43.:38:45.

Middlesbrough face Everton, Crystal Palace are at Stoke.

:38:46.:38:47.

At the Stadium of Light Sunderland play Southampton whilst West Ham

:38:48.:38:50.

And there's a big one in the late kick off with second place

:38:51.:39:00.

Sheffield Wednesday are still on course to reach the at least

:39:01.:39:14.

the play offs in the Championship after a 3-nil win over

:39:15.:39:17.

Birmingham City. Their opening goal was scored by new signing

:39:18.:39:20.

Jordan Rhodes after just nine minutes of his home debut.

:39:21.:39:23.

Great Britain will play Croatia later in a promotion play-off

:39:24.:39:25.

That's the equivalent of the Davis Cup in women's

:39:26.:39:29.

The British team won all three of their group games.

:39:30.:39:32.

In their latest tie against Turkey a singles victory for Johanna Konta

:39:33.:39:35.

put Great Britain on their way to a 3-0 win.

:39:36.:39:38.

Tiger Woods has withdrawn from the next two events on the PGA

:39:39.:39:41.

The 14 time major winner pulled out of this month's Dubai Desert Classic

:39:42.:39:46.

before the second round with the injury.

:39:47.:39:48.

He only returned to action in December after two back

:39:49.:39:51.

For years now, Snowdonia in North Wales has been establishing

:39:52.:39:57.

itself as a centre for extreme adventure sports, with Europe's

:39:58.:40:00.

longest and fastest zipwire - and a unique surfing lake.

:40:01.:40:03.

Now, former slate mines have been brought back to life,

:40:04.:40:06.

to add a huge adrenalin rush to history lessons.

:40:07.:40:08.

I joined a school party in one of the vast caverns

:40:09.:40:11.

Beneath this sci-fi landscape, there is an industrial world waiting to be

:40:12.:40:25.

discovered again. A labyrinth of over 300 tunnels and caverns, 24

:40:26.:40:31.

stories deep. Former slate mines, now to be explored using climbing

:40:32.:40:36.

skills and declines, giving you an insight into the life of a minor.

:40:37.:40:45.

This is a horrible dream! All that supports you are staples humbled

:40:46.:40:50.

into the rock. You are say thank you to a harness. But your mind

:40:51.:41:05.

paralysed as you with fear -- miner. What is so incredible is when you

:41:06.:41:09.

look down and around, this is where people work. Some working here were

:41:10.:41:19.

as young as six years old. I learned about what the miners had to do. We

:41:20.:41:26.

have a great safety system now, but they just had chains around their

:41:27.:41:31.

legs. It is crazy to think they did that for 12 hours a day. She -- this

:41:32.:41:41.

man worked in the mines, but is now a safety inspector. You have to

:41:42.:41:48.

bring people in. There is a side, we are very proud of the culture, we

:41:49.:41:57.

have embraced that culture. After the training, it's up to you to get

:41:58.:42:03.

around the three-hour long course. You cold your fears in the head, and

:42:04.:42:09.

then it starts to get a bit more enjoyable -- you conquer. You learn

:42:10.:42:16.

more about yourself going around there than you can looking at your

:42:17.:42:20.

iPhone. The school pupils took it all in their stride. Having seen one

:42:21.:42:27.

might fall of the monkey bars 200 feet up... It was really scary. I

:42:28.:42:34.

thought I was just going to fall. I gave this is, taking a different

:42:35.:42:37.

route to the final challenge. I don't want to look down. This is the

:42:38.:43:03.

stairway to heaven. They saved the steepest zip wire to last.

:43:04.:43:08.

I felt like I was in a different dimension, everyone else didn't seem

:43:09.:43:15.

scared at all. I was absolutely terrified. I think maybe as you get

:43:16.:43:20.

older... The stairway thing, you have a cable thing to hold on to an

:43:21.:43:30.

end... 200 feet of nothing. You are on these little staples, that is all

:43:31.:43:36.

you are treading on. It's your mind, isn't it? Wants UK net, it is a

:43:37.:43:40.

great feeling. 20 of opportunities to get involved. -- plenty of

:43:41.:43:52.

opportunities -- once you get it. Very good. We will see you later on.

:43:53.:43:58.

The main stories this morning: Schoolchildren in England

:43:59.:44:02.

are going to be offered It's hoped that more than five

:44:03.:44:04.

thousand teenagers will spend up to four hours a week on the subject,

:44:05.:44:08.

over the next five years. President Trump is said to be

on London's roads over We'll be in Trafalgar Square

:44:20.:44:32.

where campaigners are calling on ministers to make

:44:33.:44:35.

cycling safer. Here's Matt with a look

:44:36.:44:40.

at this morning's weather. What's with all the snow, Matt? It's

:44:41.:44:46.

cold out there, Charlie and Steph. Cold and wintry for some this

:44:47.:44:58.

morning. Not a great morning for emerging from under the duvet but as

:44:59.:45:02.

temperatures rise, a lot of the snow will turn back to rain with not much

:45:03.:45:07.

disruption around. A slight covering here and over the hills. To show you

:45:08.:45:12.

where it's been over the last few hours, parts of eastern Scotland and

:45:13.:45:15.

the Pennines and eastern parts of Wales. The odd flurry elsewhere in

:45:16.:45:19.

England and Wales and especially to the south and east. Not cloudy and

:45:20.:45:23.

raining and snowing everywhere because western Scotland and

:45:24.:45:27.

Northern Ireland have sunshine this morning but a frost sees

:45:28.:45:30.

temperatures down to -10 in parts of the Highlands. Eastern Scotland

:45:31.:45:34.

above freezing just about but rain on the coast, a bit of sleet and

:45:35.:45:38.

snow inland, the same in northern England and to eastern parts of

:45:39.:45:42.

Wales, mainly light snow falling at the moment. Some in the south-west

:45:43.:45:46.

and Wales will see some sunshine but for most in England and Wales, a

:45:47.:45:50.

great start, some snow possible in Kent, Sussex and Southwark. A lot of

:45:51.:45:57.

places that sees no first thing will get rain and drizzle later in the

:45:58.:46:03.

day -- Suffolk. The best of the dry and sunny weather west of Scotland,

the wind will make it feel colder so bear that in mind if you're going to

the Six Nations match in Wales later. Quite a bit of cloud coming

stronger through tonight, near gale force wind parts of eastern England.

cold wherever you are. If it is too cold for you at the moment, stay

waiting because things turn warmer next week. 10 degrees, not exactly

sunshine, probably feeling a bit like spring.

We'll be back with the headlines at 7am.

:47:14.:47:17.

Few things say the future better than robots.

:47:18.:47:48.

We seem to be in an era of massive advances at the moment.

:47:49.:47:52.

This week, a leaked video from Boston Dynamics shows

:47:53.:47:56.

off its latest machine, called Handle, something its founder

:47:57.:47:59.

Rolling on with the wheel theme, Piaggio, known for its Vespa

This robo-suitcase follows its owner's every move,

:48:16.:48:18.

using cameras in its body and in the user's belt.

:48:19.:48:21.

But sometimes it's good to look at where we've come from.

:48:22.:48:34.

The robots exhibition at the London science musician is an attempt to

:48:35.:48:43.

resemble behaviours. There are more than 100 robots here, including some

old friends that we've met before. There are more than 100 robots here,

including some old friends that And this amazing swan,

made from silver, is all the more incredible because it was made over

:49:02.:49:05.

200 years ago, in 1773. It was these mechanical marvels that

:49:06.:49:21.

made the Industrial Revolution possible, mobilising hundreds

:49:22.:49:23.

of workers to be at the same place at the same time, enabling

:49:24.:49:26.

goods to be transported, trains to run accurately,

:49:27.:49:28.

and allowing industry to become The Industrial Revolution was also

:49:29.:49:31.

the catalyst for massive social change across the world,

:49:32.:49:34.

bringing about the rise of the working class, and sparking

ideas like capitalism and Marxism. Now, in the West, Cuba found itself

:49:38.:49:40.

at the epicentre of this shift. It was the poster child

a permit just to buy a PC. Today, if you're lucky enough

to own a smartphone, There's no mobile data,

:50:22.:50:24.

so Cuban apps are designed to work Until recently, even basic internet

:50:25.:50:33.

access could only be found at desktop computers inside state

are coming to buy internet scratchcards which can finally get

hack-tivist, and as a former government IT administrator,

:50:57.:51:03.

knows the system well. Everything in Cuba is restricted,

:51:04.:51:08.

filtered, as the rest of the world. Basically, they censor

:51:09.:51:11.

everything that might It might be porn, gay,

:51:12.:51:13.

or political things. But the biggest barrier

:51:14.:51:20.

for locals - the price. A single hour of full

what's the internet, The government says expanding

the internet is a priority and central Havana is now conducting

:51:41.:51:42.

trials of in-home net access And it boasts of a growing number

of public wifi hotspots, too, around 300 in

is traipse across town So some Cubans who are fed up

:52:36.:52:38.

with the government strategy on access have come up with their

:52:39.:52:42.

own rather inventive solutions. The results are found

:52:43.:52:45.

on rooftops in towns and cities across the nation in the form

of pole-mounted antennaes which are pointed towards the local

access and even wifi. The practice isn't exactly legal

:52:57.:52:59.

but as I discovered that minor detail doesn't deter Cubans

:53:00.:53:04.

from getting their information fix. This is the paquete semanal,

:53:05.:53:06.

literally the weekly packet. It refers to a highly organised

is the price the Cuban regime itself is paying, a reaction

for information functions People need information and people

will get information, no matter if you are going

to provide it or not. There's a political need

:53:57.:53:59.

to understand differently Progress is undoubtedly too

:54:00.:54:01.

slow for many Cubans. But recent overtures do

at least give some people Ever wondered what cats get up

:55:53.:55:55.

the first blockbuster robot from the ground-breaking

:55:56.:55:58.

1927 film Metropolis. The visual effects in that movie

:55:59.:56:03.

were absolutely stunning, given that it is

actually 90 years old. Next, we're going to continue our

Hello, this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Steph

:59:02.:00:36.

The latest weapon in the war against hackers, the government

:00:37.:00:39.

funds lessons in cyber security for teenagers.

:00:40.:00:41.

It's hoped they'll become the experts of the future

:00:42.:00:44.

and protect Britain from online attacks.

:00:45.:00:53.

Good morning, it's Saturday, 11th February.

:00:54.:01:03.

Also ahead, President Trump says he may issue a new order authorising

:01:04.:01:06.

a travel ban after his old one was blocked by the courts.

:01:07.:01:10.

Parks under threat - a new report says funding has

:01:11.:01:12.

reached a tipping point and new ways of paying for them need to be

:01:13.:01:16.

The latest on the battle to save hundreds of whales stranded

:01:17.:01:20.

And in sport, it's one of the biggest tests yet

:01:21.:01:30.

It's a first trip to Cardiff, for their coach Eddie Jones,

:01:31.:01:34.

and Wales are banking on home advantage to take them top of the 6

:01:35.:01:38.

And I am in Trafalgar Square where hundreds of cyclists are staging a

:01:39.:01:45.

protest following the deaths of three cyclists on London's roads in

:01:46.:01:48.

just one week. A cold feeling day for all of us

:01:49.:01:58.

today, limited slow to begin. A coating in some places, but for

:01:59.:02:02.

many, that snow will turn back to rain.

:02:03.:02:03.

Schoolchildren are to be offered lessons in cyber-security

:02:04.:02:07.

to encourage more younger people to pursue a career in defending

:02:08.:02:10.

It's hoped that thousands of teenagers in England will spend

:02:11.:02:14.

up to four hours a week on the subject, over

:02:15.:02:17.

Here's our home affairs correspondent Tom Symonds.

:02:18.:02:25.

Daniel Kelly is a convicted teenage hacker facing a jail sentence.

:02:26.:02:28.

In 2015, he took part in a massive digital break-in of TalkTalk.

:02:29.:02:33.

What if his potential had been harnessed at an earlier age?

:02:34.:02:36.

He may have ended up joining a new breed of apprentices learning

:02:37.:02:40.

the cyber security trade, like these at BT's headquarters.

:02:41.:02:49.

With that in mind, the government is putting up ?20 million for nearly

:02:50.:02:53.

6000 schoolchildren aged 14 and over to take four hours of cyber security

:02:54.:02:56.

We think that will help seriously with the shortage of cyber skills

:02:57.:03:01.

We will always keep it under review, in case this needs to get bigger.

:03:02.:03:15.

But getting it going at that scale shows serious ambition to make sure

:03:16.:03:19.

that we can have the pipeline of talent we are going to need

:03:20.:03:22.

Police are stepping up the fight, but this is not a threat that can be

:03:23.:03:28.

defeated on the ground by raiding the hackers.

:03:29.:03:30.

The cyber-crime battlefield will be online, and Britain's GCHQ will be

:03:31.:03:33.

58,000 people are employed in the anti-hacking industry.

:03:34.:03:36.

More will be needed, and the government knows it has

:03:37.:03:39.

to start finding them when they're young.

:03:40.:03:45.

And in a few minutes we'll be joined by Brian Lord,

:03:46.:03:48.

who spent over 20 years as a Deputy Director

:03:49.:03:50.

Donald Trump has said he may rewrite the presidential order imposing

:03:51.:03:55.

restrictions on travel to the US to overcome the legal obstacles that

:03:56.:03:59.

have frustrated his efforts so far.

:04:00.:04:02.

His first order, stopping travel from seven mainly-Muslim countries,

:04:03.:04:04.

Our Washington correspondent David Willis has more.

:04:05.:04:11.

After a federal appeals court backed a stay of his executive order,

:04:12.:04:16.

Donald Trump vowed he would see his opponents in court.

:04:17.:04:25.

Speaking en route to his weekend retreat in Florida, the president

:04:26.:04:31.

revealed he was weighing other alternatives.

:04:32.:04:32.

We will win the battle, but we also have a lot of other

:04:33.:04:36.

options, including filing a brand-new order.

:04:37.:04:39.

I like to keep you, I'd like to surprise you.

:04:40.:04:48.

We need speed for reasons of security.

:04:49.:04:50.

Unveiled at the end of a frantic first week in office,

:04:51.:04:54.

the original order suspended America's refugee programme

:04:55.:04:56.

and banned travellers from seven majority Muslim nations

:04:57.:04:59.

It caused chaos at airports and sparked protest

:05:00.:05:03.

Just how the White House might rewrite the order is not

:05:04.:05:08.

Lawyers would almost certainly have to address the claim that

:05:09.:05:13.

in its existing form, the order is unconstitutional

:05:14.:05:17.

in that it blocks entry to the United States

:05:18.:05:19.

Mr Trump has continued to insist that tough immigration

:05:20.:05:27.

measures are crucial for the country's security.

:05:28.:05:29.

The funding of parks has reached a tipping point and new ways

:05:30.:05:32.

of paying for them may have to be found.

:05:33.:05:35.

That's according to the Commons Communities

:05:36.:05:41.

and Local Government Committee which says parks are suffering

:05:42.:05:44.

It warns there's a danger of a return to the neglect

:05:45.:05:48.

Instead of regarding parks as only a sort of leisure and recreation

:05:49.:05:52.

area of service, we should be thinking

:05:53.:05:54.

about them as big contributors to public health and environmental

:05:55.:05:57.

And maybe they can be re-prioritised.

:05:58.:06:03.

There is fundamentally a problem about the number of cuts that local

:06:04.:06:06.

authorities have been experiencing and the distribution

:06:07.:06:11.

across the country, and the difficult decisions

:06:12.:06:12.

that most local authorities are having to make.

:06:13.:06:17.

Labour has issued formal warnings to members of its front-bench team

:06:18.:06:20.

who disobeyed Jeremy Corbyn's order to vote for Brexit.

:06:21.:06:22.

Among those who ignored Mr Corbyn were 11 shadow junior ministers

:06:23.:06:29.

A 16-year-old boy has died after he was stabbed in a busy

:06:30.:06:35.

The wounded teenager was taken from the Harehills area to hospital

:06:36.:06:39.

for treatment, but died a short time later.

:06:40.:06:41.

A 15-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

:06:42.:06:48.

The decision to end a scheme to let unaccompanied refugee children

:06:49.:06:51.

into the UK is shameful according to the Scottish First Minister

:06:52.:06:54.

She's urged the Prime Minister to change her mind, saying

:06:55.:07:02.

there is a moral duty to help those in need.

:07:03.:07:05.

The scheme's due to end in March with 350 children being admitted far

:07:06.:07:10.

fewer than some campaigners had hoped for.

:07:11.:07:14.

Some distressing pictures from New Zealand where volunteers

:07:15.:07:16.

are trying to save around 100 whales that have become trapped

:07:17.:07:19.

Hundreds more have already died in one of the biggest ever mass

:07:20.:07:23.

It's hoped the pilot whales may be able to swim to safety

:07:24.:07:28.

Some of the imagines in this report are distressing.

:07:29.:07:39.

As they wait for high tide, volunteers do everything they can

:07:40.:07:42.

to cool the whales, pouring water and covering them with cloth to help

:07:43.:07:46.

regulate body temperature - temporary measures until the whales

:07:47.:07:48.

Some hope that singing will prove soothing.

:07:49.:07:52.

And then, the sound of success, but it is early

:07:53.:07:55.

We had a group of volunteers camped out over night.

:07:56.:08:08.

We had a little bit of time where the whales

:08:09.:08:11.

But very quickly, this tide has come racing

:08:12.:08:14.

in, and we are all up to our knees, some up to their waists in water,

:08:15.:08:19.

and we are seeing some floating happening.

:08:20.:08:21.

We are assisting them with their breathing until the water

:08:22.:08:23.

gets deep enough for them to swim out.

:08:24.:08:25.

It is a devastating image, one of the worst

:08:26.:08:28.

whale strandings in the country's history.

:08:29.:08:29.

It is unclear what brings them en masse into Farewell Spit.

:08:30.:08:33.

Some believe they may be sick or injured, or have simply lost their

:08:34.:08:36.

way. One theory is that when a whale

:08:37.:08:36.

is distressed, it sends out a signal Once they are on the beach,

:08:37.:08:40.

it is hard to get them both We have lost sight of 100 that were

:08:41.:08:51.

released overnight, but the sad part is that 240 Wales have re- stranded

:08:52.:08:56.

themselves just south of that. We will be fighting to keep them happy,

:08:57.:08:58.

but it is pretty grim out here. They try to use the rising waters

:08:59.:09:01.

to guide them into the sea, but some swam straight back

:09:02.:09:05.

to the beach and most were stranded With dangerous conditions on the

:09:06.:09:13.

water, the operation has been stood down for now.

:09:14.:09:20.

Time to take a look at different pages.

slippery in one or two spots, snow over the hills. West of Scotland and

:13:17.:13:21.

Northern Ireland, frost to content with. At least you will see some

:13:22.:13:26.

sunshine. Generally good conditions elsewhere. A mix of rain, sleet and

:13:27.:13:33.

snow. In Wales and lower-level sites for a time. Temperatures will slowly

:13:34.:13:40.

start to rise and we will see it turn back to mainly rain and

:13:41.:13:46.

drizzle. A good covering of the tops of the Pennines, the hills and

:13:47.:13:50.

eastern Scotland. Not just grey out there, also quite windy this

:13:51.:13:55.

afternoon. Looking at the temperatures, a bit higher than

:13:56.:13:59.

yesterday. That wind has been close to gale force across parts of

:14:00.:14:02.

Scotland and northern England. Feeling much colder than

:14:03.:14:07.

:14:17.:14:19.

makes for another gloomy start to tomorrow. Maybe not as much snow in

:14:20.:14:25.

the afternoon compared to today. Engineering across the high ground.

:14:26.:14:31.

Patchy rain elsewhere. A few breaks in rain elsewhere. In Scotland and

:14:32.:14:37.

Northern Ireland we could see the sunniest of the conditions. A bit

:14:38.:14:41.

more cloud than today. Temperatures feeling even colder because of the

:14:42.:14:44.

strength of the wind. The temperature profile for the rest of

:14:45.:14:49.

the coming five days is one which clients. When you compare it to what

:14:50.:14:56.

we have right now, ten or 11 degrees might feel like spring -- climbs. I

:14:57.:15:06.

am glad I've got my jump on. We've all found good reasons to take a

:15:07.:15:10.

trip to the local park, but that could soon become more difficult.

:15:11.:15:17.

Pressures to find land for housing means parks are facing a period of

:15:18.:15:21.

decline. That is according to a group of MPs who say they need to be

:15:22.:15:26.

fundamental changes to the way that parks are managed. What have parks

:15:27.:15:31.

ever done for us? It feels almost wild even though you

:15:32.:15:45.

are in the centre of London. This is close to my house, we don't have far

:15:46.:15:48.

to walk with the children. The perfect place to walk, it is quite

:15:49.:15:53.

big and there is a cafe over there. They may be loved, but the crucial

:15:54.:15:56.

question surrounds their value and of course their cost. For the past

:15:57.:16:01.

six months a committee of MPs has been asking that question and

:16:02.:16:06.

listening to the answers. It found that with council budgets are tight

:16:07.:16:10.

many local parks are at a tipping point. What of their viability, what

:16:11.:16:15.

of their future. How can they be saved? Instead of regarding parks is

:16:16.:16:21.

only a leisure and recreation area of service, we should be thinking

:16:22.:16:27.

about parks as the contributors to public health and to environmental

:16:28.:16:31.

policy and to community cohesion. And maybe they can be re-

:16:32.:16:36.

prioritise. But there is a fundamental question about the level

:16:37.:16:39.

of cuts that local authorities have been experiencing. We started to do

:16:40.:16:43.

some work and eventually created a ten acre nature reserve. We have

:16:44.:16:47.

planted 60,000 trees to encourage flora and fauna. The innovation

:16:48.:16:54.

started here on the edge of the Pennines, more than 30 years ago. It

:16:55.:16:59.

is vital for the community to have this sort of open space. If it is

:17:00.:17:02.

looked after and maintained, it is for their benefit. As well as the

:17:03.:17:06.

nature reserve there is a community garden and a football pitch. It is

:17:07.:17:10.

the result of partnerships between the council, the charity Ground work

:17:11.:17:15.

and local volunteers. A model example of how public green spaces

:17:16.:17:22.

can determine their own future. If it was a redundant piece of land,

:17:23.:17:26.

fly tipping and things like that, from that, we were able to create

:17:27.:17:30.

this community garden and help out with adding some elements to the

:17:31.:17:34.

sports pitch. Really, it helped the group. It helped the group service

:17:35.:17:40.

to community a lot more, and more and more people could get involved

:17:41.:17:43.

with that. Long-term it is a cost saving to the council, but the

:17:44.:17:47.

councils have to be responsible about what they are doing. The MPs

:17:48.:17:52.

are calling on the government and local authorities to ensure they

:17:53.:17:56.

have strategic lands in place for these emeralds, these green jewels

:17:57.:18:01.

in the Crown. They believe parks must remain publicly owned, open to

:18:02.:18:06.

all and free of charge. From flood management to healthy living to

:18:07.:18:09.

biodiversity of wildlife, our parks and green spaces can be the lungs

:18:10.:18:16.

and the heart of our increasingly urbanised lives.

:18:17.:18:21.

I love a good park. We have been asking you to send in your pictures

:18:22.:18:28.

of your local parks and tell us why you love yours. We have a view to

:18:29.:18:35.

show you this morning. Karen sent us this from Craigavon Park in Northern

:18:36.:18:39.

Ireland. That is a gorgeous photo. We have a sunny one by way of

:18:40.:18:43.

contrast. This is Duthie Park in Aberdeen from Maddie. That is not

:18:44.:18:50.

today, I don't think that is from today. Certainly not right now,

:18:51.:18:54.

anyway. But that is a lovely image. We have more sunshine in one of

:18:55.:18:59.

these parks. This is cheap Park from Vanessa in London, describing it as

:19:00.:19:04.

full of deer and beautiful wide open spaces for bike riding and walking.

:19:05.:19:08.

And the last once an hour, central park in Chelmsford. Linda takes part

:19:09.:19:12.

in a running group every Saturday. So that would be this morning. She

:19:13.:19:17.

was finishing her run, number 100. I'm not sure if that means 100 runs

:19:18.:19:24.

that she has done. Who knows. Maybe she can tell us. We will find out.

:19:25.:19:28.

Lots of people will be running in the parks this morning, nine o'clock

:19:29.:19:32.

is park run, lots of people doing that. Send us some pictures and we

:19:33.:19:36.

will try to show them later in the programme. In the past week, three

:19:37.:19:39.

cyclists have been killed in the space of four days on London's

:19:40.:19:44.

roads. This morning, campaigns are gathering to demand that ministers

:19:45.:19:49.

make cycling safer. But figures nationally show that could really be

:19:50.:19:53.

the case with the number of cycling deaths going down over the past

:19:54.:19:57.

decade. Holly is in Trafalgar Square. Good morning.

:19:58.:20:02.

Good morning. Yes, it does seem that more of us than ever are taking onto

:20:03.:20:07.

the on two wheels, whether it is for fitness or fun or commuting. The

:20:08.:20:11.

number of cyclists in the UK has gone up in the past two decades by

:20:12.:20:15.

more than a quarter. That has meant obviously that there have been more

:20:16.:20:18.

road safety initiatives in place to try to keep us safe. As you mention,

:20:19.:20:23.

it seems to be working. Content to ten years ago the number of road

:20:24.:20:27.

deaths has gone down. But sadly, those three deaths on the road in

:20:28.:20:31.

London in the space of just one week this week has really hit home with

:20:32.:20:35.

people, which has renewed calls for further investment in infrastructure

:20:36.:20:38.

and further investment in roads, and there will be a protest taking place

:20:39.:20:42.

this afternoon with people asking, why can't there be more cycle paths,

:20:43.:20:46.

more done to try to protect people? We are going to speak to some of the

:20:47.:20:51.

people who will be taking part in a protest. Andrew, I will speak to you

:20:52.:20:54.

first. You are an experienced cyclist. What is it like cycling in

:20:55.:20:58.

London Day today? Good morning. I have been cycling to work for 15

:20:59.:21:02.

years now, from Surrey. There and back. In many ways it is a joy. You

:21:03.:21:07.

are your own boss, you can go where you want, when you want, you are

:21:08.:21:10.

stuck in congestion. You come to work full of energy and it feels

:21:11.:21:14.

really good. And you are going past cars that are going nowhere, filling

:21:15.:21:18.

the air with rubbish, and that is what we need to change. But do you

:21:19.:21:22.

feel safe when you are cycling? I have been cycling for a long time. I

:21:23.:21:27.

have had some near misses and a minor can ill -- minor collision. We

:21:28.:21:31.

need to recognise that the main hazard caused by the motor vehicles

:21:32.:21:35.

is the 25 people per day dying from pollution. Compare to that, the

:21:36.:21:39.

collision risk is small. It is tragic we have had three deaths this

:21:40.:21:43.

week, but that is an unusual week. For me, you can look at me, you can

:21:44.:21:47.

see that only the exercise, and the health benefits of the exercise far

:21:48.:21:51.

outweigh the risk of collisions. The problem with the collisions is that

:21:52.:21:54.

it is tragic for people involved and it scares people off the roads and

:21:55.:21:58.

keeps them in their vehicles, they are by increasing the risk you are

:21:59.:22:01.

trying to prevent. It is important to mention, we do want to say that

:22:02.:22:06.

it is safe to cycle. We do not want to be scaremongering and putting

:22:07.:22:09.

people off, but those deaths have highlighted a really serious issue

:22:10.:22:12.

on our roads. We will speak to roost and and baby Alan, who has joined us

:22:13.:22:16.

here. Ruth and, the number of deaths has gone down, but what more needs

:22:17.:22:23.

to be done? -- Ruth-Anne. I cycle every day with my children, we do

:22:24.:22:27.

not have a car. It is our way of getting around, when is the third of

:22:28.:22:31.

three children. I find it quick and convenient and easy. We sold our car

:22:32.:22:37.

because we didn't need it. But most parents I speak to say that they do

:22:38.:22:41.

not feel safe, cycling with their children in London. I cannot say I

:22:42.:22:45.

blame them. You just need one aggressive driver, one close pass,

:22:46.:22:49.

one driver tailgating you, honking, scaring children, and it is going to

:22:50.:22:53.

put you off. That is just the opposite of what we need. So

:22:54.:22:56.

although it is brilliant that the deaths are going down, we need

:22:57.:23:00.

people to feel safe as well. And he did quality and protective

:23:01.:23:05.

infrastructure of cycle paths away from motor vehicles is what makes

:23:06.:23:08.

people feel safe, and that is what will get families on two wheels,

:23:09.:23:12.

which is what we need. Thank you, Ruth-Anne, and thank you, baby Alan.

:23:13.:23:19.

Donnie, you are from the campaign group Stop Killing Cyclists. What do

:23:20.:23:22.

you hope to achieve with this protest? All we are bringing the

:23:23.:23:26.

letters to the doors of the Treasury, because we believe the

:23:27.:23:29.

Chancellor is responsible for the carnage on the roads. 40,000 people

:23:30.:23:32.

die from traffic pollution. Another 11,000 are dying because they are

:23:33.:23:36.

afraid to cycle. We must make the roads safe. We need ?3 billion per

:23:37.:23:40.

year invested in cycling infrastructure, and a Chancellor is

:23:41.:23:42.

investing nothing in cycling infrastructure at the moment. We

:23:43.:23:47.

will bring the protest to his doors and demand that he invests in

:23:48.:23:50.

infrastructure that will save cyclists' lives. Do some cyclists to

:23:51.:23:56.

take responsibility for their safety as well? So many people tell us

:23:57.:23:59.

about irresponsible cyclists. Over the last four years one person has

:24:00.:24:03.

been killed by a cyclist on a footpath. Yet something like 50,000

:24:04.:24:07.

are being killed because of the traffic system. The level of damage

:24:08.:24:14.

being caused by cyclists is tiny compared to the traffic. We need to

:24:15.:24:18.

train kids in schools to be safe but we need the infrastructure to enable

:24:19.:24:22.

their parents to feel safe for the kids to cycle to school. It is

:24:23.:24:26.

really urgent. Thank you for joining us this morning. The Department of

:24:27.:24:30.

Transport as they are doing everything they can to try invest in

:24:31.:24:33.

cycling. It has in fact rippled spending in the past five years

:24:34.:24:37.

alone. I must add that this protest taking place this afternoon is also

:24:38.:24:41.

a vigil to pay homage to those who died on the road this week and

:24:42.:24:45.

previously, as both sides you have said, it really is a case of one

:24:46.:24:48.

death being just too many. Thank you.

:24:49.:24:52.

It's 7:25 and you're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:24:53.:24:55.

Back to our top story, ?25 million is being invested in teaching our

:24:56.:25:01.

schoolchildren about cyber security in the hope they will become the

:25:02.:25:05.

experts of the future to protect Britain from online attacks. We are

:25:06.:25:14.

going to speak now to Brian Lord, who has spent more than 20 years as

:25:15.:25:18.

a deputy director at GCHQ and now runs his own cyber security firm.

:25:19.:25:22.

Thank you for joining us this morning, Mr Lord. What do you make

:25:23.:25:27.

of this, this idea of getting schoolchildren to learn cyber

:25:28.:25:30.

security. Do you need to -- do we need to? I think we do, and I think

:25:31.:25:35.

primarily it is because there is still a lot of misinformation about

:25:36.:25:39.

careers in cyber security. In fact, a lot of people don't know anything

:25:40.:25:44.

about them. There are a lot of misperceptions that the school age

:25:45.:25:48.

level about what a career looks like. So the more exposure they can

:25:49.:25:54.

get, it's prepares them for a future career and is not only that, as that

:25:55.:25:57.

generation needs to understand how to be safe online, you get a double

:25:58.:26:02.

benefit. I think it is an essential initiative, yes. You say that about

:26:03.:26:06.

misinformation and people not knowing what a career in cyber

:26:07.:26:10.

security is like. What is it like? I think first of all there is this

:26:11.:26:14.

perception that cyber security is all about techno geeks with long

:26:15.:26:19.

hair and glasses wearing heavy metal T-shirts and drinking red Bull.

:26:20.:26:23.

There are those, and they do an extraordinarily good job. But there

:26:24.:26:28.

is a whole range of other activities, information security,

:26:29.:26:31.

management systems, forensics, cyber threat intelligence analysis. A

:26:32.:26:36.

whole range of professional strands there which can appeal to quite a

:26:37.:26:40.

wide cross-section of children and graduates and apprentices. And at

:26:41.:26:44.

the moment they do not know what there is to offer, which is why

:26:45.:26:48.

there is a very slow uptake in this profession. So these lessons will be

:26:49.:26:54.

extra curricular ones. For hours a week. -- four hours. For any

:26:55.:26:58.

children watching, or their parents, what type of skills are you looking

:26:59.:27:02.

for? Who are the young people we should see going into these lessons?

:27:03.:27:06.

I don't want to pigeonhole a particular profile into it, because

:27:07.:27:11.

once again, I think you risk saying, well, you have to understand

:27:12.:27:15.

technology. You don't. What we actually want from children who want

:27:16.:27:20.

to perhaps be interested in this area is an inquisitive mind, the

:27:21.:27:26.

ability to be able to apply logic to problems, and just a general

:27:27.:27:30.

interest in the modern world of technology which doesn't mean being

:27:31.:27:35.

a technologist. All these children use computers, they use iPhones.

:27:36.:27:39.

Just an interesting how modern world works. Obviously these lessons are

:27:40.:27:44.

not going to be compulsory. So how do we get young people interested in

:27:45.:27:48.

them in the first place? I mean, that is a very good point. What we

:27:49.:27:54.

probably need to be able to do is being able to integrate knowledge of

:27:55.:27:58.

this across all the different curricula strands. My fear is that

:27:59.:28:03.

what will immediately happen is that this will be thrown into the ICT

:28:04.:28:08.

domain in schools, and once again there is an element of that. But we

:28:09.:28:13.

need to integrate into PH C, we need to integrate it into social logic,

:28:14.:28:16.

we need to integrate it into business studies, into politics.

:28:17.:28:20.

There is a whole swathe of this activity which needs to be

:28:21.:28:25.

integrated into all these strands of curricular rather than pigeonholing

:28:26.:28:29.

it into the IT strand, which will limit its appeal to a community. It

:28:30.:28:36.

feels slightly strange to be saying that we need more teenagers to keep

:28:37.:28:40.

doing cyber security to keep us safe. Are things that desperate now?

:28:41.:28:47.

I think we have to not misinterpreted can say that the only

:28:48.:28:50.

people who can keep us safe are teenagers. Although there probably

:28:51.:28:54.

is an element to that. But, yes, this is a Twitter century threat and

:28:55.:28:58.

we are dealing with a workforce who has grown up outside this threat. --

:28:59.:29:05.

21st century. To be able to get an entire workforce ready to be able to

:29:06.:29:09.

deal with the explosion of technology and the inherent risks

:29:10.:29:12.

that come with that technology is quite challenging for lots of the

:29:13.:29:16.

workforce. However, I think it is fair to say, and I am not always

:29:17.:29:20.

fair to government on this, that this initiative on schools is just

:29:21.:29:24.

one of many they are doing. They are also running a major risk killing

:29:25.:29:27.

programme were people can change career and move into this field, as

:29:28.:29:31.

well as developing apprenticeships. -- Major reskilling programme. So it

:29:32.:29:36.

is only one of a number of strands to increase the people that we do

:29:37.:29:40.

need in this industry. Given that you spent 20 years in the industry,

:29:41.:29:44.

how worried should we be about cyber security at the moment? I think... I

:29:45.:29:47.

don't think we should panic, but I think we should be aware of it and

:29:48.:29:52.

be able to deal with it quickly. I think once again, we need to be

:29:53.:29:56.

careful that we don't sort of just pigeonhole the cyber threat into

:29:57.:29:59.

nasty Russians doing nasty things in elections. Because there is a whole

:30:00.:30:05.

swathe of activity, and primarily this is just pure online

:30:06.:30:08.

just about learning how to be safe online. So I think it is something

:30:17.:30:20.

we have to worry about but not panic about. Brian Lord, thank you very

thinking about them as big contributors to public health

and environmental policy And maybe they can

:32:51.:32:52.

be re-prioritised. There is fundamentally a problem

:32:53.:32:55.

about the number of cuts that local authorities have been experiencing

:32:56.:32:58.

and the distribution of those cuts across the country,

:32:59.:33:01.

and the difficult decisions that most local authorities

:33:02.:33:03.

are having to make. Labour has issued formal warnings

weekend in the rugby? What a day ahead. Italy and Ireland in the Six

:34:51.:35:07.

Nations, then Wales against England. It is always the highlight.

:35:08.:35:10.

Wales against England in Cardiff, especially, with the Welsh having

:35:11.:35:13.

this chance to end England's winning run under Eddie Jones.

:35:14.:35:15.

For more on the build-up to the match let's speak to former

:35:16.:35:18.

Wales centre Tom Shanklin, who's at the Principality Stadium.

:35:19.:35:21.

Morning Tom, what do you make of Eddie Jones and his cheeky

:35:22.:35:30.

comments about Welsh tricks, and playing Tom Jones' "Delilah"

:35:31.:35:33.

That's all about mind games, there was also the conversation about the

:35:34.:35:44.

roof, now it is open even though it is snowing in Wales. This is all

:35:45.:35:49.

part and parcel of international rugby, especially because of the

:35:50.:35:52.

rivalry and the history between Wales and England.

:35:53.:35:57.

of all sorts of shannigans, traffic jams to delay the team,

:35:58.:36:02.

phonecalls in the night, no lighting or heating

:36:03.:36:04.

There was nothing like that, at the traffic will be bad because there

:36:05.:36:19.

will be 76,000 people trying to get into Cardiff. Sometimes the heat

:36:20.:36:25.

doesn't work in the change rooms, that is just a fact of life. It is

:36:26.:36:33.

all about mind games now! It is a big fixture!

:36:34.:36:36.

What effect will be roof being open have, bearing in mind that England

:36:37.:36:39.

have won 4 of 5 the previous games with the roof open?

:36:40.:36:44.

I know! When the roof closes, it becomes absolutely electric. The

:36:45.:36:52.

roof is open today, it is not going to make a difference between who

:36:53.:36:57.

wins and who loses, but when it is closed it is just intense. So

:36:58.:37:03.

intense, so loud, you can't hear anyone. But it is not a big factor.

:37:04.:37:09.

One of the things people have noticed about the English setup in

:37:10.:37:16.

this game is that in certain areas, they lack experience, compared with

:37:17.:37:19.

Wales. Given what you described about the atmosphere in the sense of

:37:20.:37:25.

the occasion, is that one area where possibly Wales have the edge going

:37:26.:37:32.

in? It is. It is an inexperienced back row. The Welsh back row, the

:37:33.:37:37.

experience they have got, it is certainly an area I think Wales will

:37:38.:37:43.

take the lead on. Whoever can get their front foot forward, what

:37:44.:37:49.

you've got is too incredible defence sides. It is how you break down

:37:50.:37:53.

that. You do that by getting a quick ball on the front foot. Just two,

:37:54.:37:59.

also asking about the mind games, as a player, what is it like Indy

:38:00.:38:07.

tunnel in the final minutes before the match starts? Everyone 's

:38:08.:38:22.

different. -- in the. It is the last few moments that you can

:38:23.:38:25.

concentrate. Once you get out there, your mind goes blank and autopilot

:38:26.:38:31.

takes over. You are very nervous, but these guys will have a sense of

:38:32.:38:36.

how big this occasion is. It will be absolutely huge in Cardiff. It is

:38:37.:38:40.

only half past seven and there are already people walking around in

:38:41.:38:45.

their scarves and hats. It is quite quite in the stadium. You could hear

:38:46.:38:55.

a pin drop. -- quiet. I think the fans will be just as nervous as you

:38:56.:39:00.

were. We look forward to it, the coverage starts at 415 on BBC One.

:39:01.:39:05.

Away from the Six Nations and history was made

:39:06.:39:07.

in the Premiership last night, as Bristol's Tom Varndell,

:39:08.:39:10.

became the league's all-time, top try scorer.

:39:11.:39:12.

The division's bottom side were thrashed by Harlequins,

:39:13.:39:14.

but Varndell scored his 91st Premiership try, to take him

:39:15.:39:17.

A last gasp penalty from Rhys Priestland gave third

:39:18.:39:26.

place Bath a one point victory over Northampton.

:39:27.:39:28.

Elsewhere Sale Sharks beat Newcastle.

:39:29.:39:41.

Scarlets moved into the top four, of the Pro 12, after an important

:39:42.:39:44.

There's confusion over the future of the Rangers manager

:39:45.:39:48.

Rangers said in a statement that he had resigned

:39:49.:39:52.

from his position but Warburton says he wasn't aware of that

:39:53.:39:55.

Rangers are third in the Scottish Premiership but 27

:39:56.:39:59.

Under-20 coach Graeme Murty is set to lead the side in topmorrow's

:40:00.:40:14.

Scottish Cup tie with Greenock Morton.

:40:15.:40:22.

The early kick off in the Premier League is at the Emirates

:40:23.:40:25.

where Arsenal take on a rejuvenated Hull City side.

:40:26.:40:28.

Arsenal are currently in fourth but have lost their last two

:40:29.:40:31.

matches, which has led to renewed speculation over manager

:40:32.:40:33.

Former Arsenal and England striker Ian Wright thinks this will be

:40:34.:40:37.

I was with the boss last night, and to be totally honest,

:40:38.:40:42.

I genuinely believe, I was with him for a few hours,

:40:43.:40:46.

I just get the impression looking at him that...

:40:47.:40:49.

He actually mentioned when we were talking that it's

:40:50.:40:56.

In the rest of the days matches, Manchester United take on Watford,

:40:57.:41:06.

Middlesbrough face Everton, Crystal Palace are at Stoke.

:41:07.:41:11.

Leigh's return to rugby league's Super League got off

:41:12.:41:13.

to a disappointing start as they were comfortably beaten

:41:14.:41:16.

The Tigers ran in seven trys including this from winger Greg

:41:17.:41:20.

Elsewhere, Huddersfield Giants beat Widnes 28-16.

:41:21.:41:27.

For years now, Snowdonia in North Wales has been establishing

:41:28.:41:30.

itself as a centre for extreme adventure sports, with Europe's

:41:31.:41:33.

longest and fastest zipwire - and a unique surfing lake.

:41:34.:41:36.

Now, former slate mines have been brought back to life,

:41:37.:41:38.

to add a huge adrenalin rush to history lessons.

:41:39.:41:41.

I joined a school party in one of the vast caverns

:41:42.:41:44.

Beneath this sci-fi landscape, there is an industrial world waiting

:41:45.:41:48.

A labyrinth of over 300 tunnels and caverns,

:41:49.:42:00.

Former slate mines, now to be explored using climbing skills

:42:01.:42:15.

and zipwires, giving you an insight into the life of a miner.

:42:16.:42:20.

All that supports you are staples hammered into the rock.

:42:21.:42:31.

But your mind paralysed has you with fear.

:42:32.:42:43.

What is so incredible is when you look down and around,

:42:44.:42:46.

Some working here were as young as six years old.

:42:47.:43:00.

I learned about what the miners had to do.

:43:01.:43:02.

We have a great safety system now, but they just had chains

:43:03.:43:06.

It is crazy to think they did that for 12 hours a day.

:43:07.:43:10.

This man worked in the mines, but is now a safety inspector.

:43:11.:43:13.

It has given the villiage a new lease of life.

:43:14.:43:29.

There is a side, we are very proud of the culture,

:43:30.:43:32.

After the training, it's up to you to get around

:43:33.:43:36.

You conquer your fears in your head, and then it starts to get a bit more

:43:37.:43:49.

You learn more about yourself going around there than you can

:43:50.:43:56.

The school pupils took it all in their stride.

:43:57.:44:00.

Having seen one lad fall of the monkey bars 200 feet up...

:44:01.:44:03.

I gave this a miss, taking a different route

:44:04.:44:15.

They saved the steepest zip wire to last.

:44:16.:44:43.

Some people do this every day. I was so petrified, nobody else seemed of

:44:44.:44:57.

it. My legs were completely wobbly, they were like jelly. Some people go

:44:58.:45:04.

completely quiet, I was not. That is part of coping with fear. It was a

:45:05.:45:10.

great challenge over three hours. Get on the website and we will tell

:45:11.:45:13.

you where to go. It is 7:45am. Let's find out what is

:45:14.:45:26.

happening with the weather. When I got up at 3:30am it was snowing, and

:45:27.:45:30.

I thought today would not look so good. How was it?

:45:31.:45:36.

Not horrendous. But a queue of you will be waking up to a coating of

:45:37.:45:40.

snow, as we have here at Blackwood near Caerphilly. That's no, as you

:45:41.:45:45.

just heard, is falling near the centre of Cardiff as well, and some

:45:46.:45:49.

picturesque snow across Dover Castle in Kent as well. Both those pictures

:45:50.:45:55.

sent in by our Weather Watchers. We also have some snow across eastern

:45:56.:45:58.

Scotland and the hills of northern England. But not everybody will have

:45:59.:46:03.

snow, by any means. Some have a dry and bright start, especially in the

:46:04.:46:05.

north-west of Scotland, where temperatures last night dropped to

:46:06.:46:09.

minus ten. A lovely start for much of Northern Ireland. Scotland, Gray,

:46:10.:46:14.

rain along the coast, sleet and snow giving a covering over the hills.

:46:15.:46:18.

The same across northern England. Snow by ten o'clock, mainly across

:46:19.:46:21.

the Pennines and into the Peak District. Patchy drizzle into lower

:46:22.:46:26.

levels. Snow and sleet across eastern Wales, and down towards the

:46:27.:46:29.

south-west. Especially across Kent and Sussex. It adds to a slow start

:46:30.:46:36.

to Saturday morning. The wind is not helping. That would be close to gale

:46:37.:46:39.

force, especially in north-east England and Scotland late on. Most

:46:40.:46:43.

of the snow will turn back towards patchy rain and drizzle and we are

:46:44.:46:46.

not expecting huge disruption by any means. The west of Scotland and

:46:47.:46:50.

Northern Ireland will stay dry with sunny spells throughout.

:46:51.:46:54.

Temperatures up a bit on yesterday. Factoring in the wind, however, it

:46:55.:46:58.

will feel colder than yesterday. That wind will strengthen tonight

:46:59.:47:01.

and into Sunday. It will continue to bring lots of cloud across the

:47:02.:47:04.

country, keeping temperatures just above freezing through the night.

:47:05.:47:09.

There will be clear skies at times in northern Scotland and maybe

:47:10.:47:12.

Northern Ireland, so that is the best chance freight touch of frost,

:47:13.:47:16.

and maybe even in the far south-west, where there will be some

:47:17.:47:19.

ice in the morning. A dusting of snow across the real -- in the

:47:20.:47:25.

hills. That will come and go, some dry moments, maybe bright in times

:47:26.:47:29.

in southernmost counties. Always a bit dry and brighter in northern

:47:30.:47:32.

parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland. But it will feel colder

:47:33.:47:36.

today, given the strength of the wind. Those winds will go gradually

:47:37.:47:40.

into the start of next week. We welcome back the sunshine and

:47:41.:47:43.

temperatures for some of you will be back to double figures. So just bear

:47:44.:47:46.

with the cold. That is very good to hear, double

:47:47.:47:51.

figures. Time now is 7:47 a.m.. We'll be back with the headlines at

:47:52.:47:55.

eight o'clock but now it is time for news watch with Samir Ahmed. --

:47:56.:48:00.

Newswatch. Hello, and welcome to Newswatch

:48:01.:48:01.

with me, Samira Ahmed. Vital insight or just

:48:02.:48:04.

demoralising coverage? The BBC's special NHS reporting

:48:05.:48:05.

is in the spotlight. Is it ever justified to show

:48:06.:48:07.

an image of a child who has just been killed, as Newsnight did

:48:08.:48:11.

in a report about a recent US Reports about the National Health

:48:12.:48:14.

Service have been especially frequent on television news

:48:15.:48:26.

bulletins over the last few weeks of winter, but this

:48:27.:48:28.

week more so than ever. The BBC was running a week

:48:29.:48:31.

of special programmes and reports, which they branded as Health Check,

:48:32.:48:34.

about the state of the NHS, including Monday's Panorama

:48:35.:48:37.

and lengthy items on the 6pm and 10pm bulletins on Monday,

:48:38.:48:39.

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Seven years ago this council spent

:48:40.:48:44.

about a third of its budget providing care and support to people

:48:45.:48:47.

who are older and disabled. But now the cost of adult social

:48:48.:49:01.

care is heading towards half of its budget, with demand still

:49:02.:49:04.

increasing and that is at the heart of the problems they are

:49:05.:49:07.

wrestling with today. The BBC was given unrestricted

:49:08.:49:10.

access to witness the pressures We have had patients here for 6-9

:49:11.:49:14.

hours and we cannot find We were in the corridor

:49:15.:49:27.

for five hours. It isn't what you expect

:49:28.:49:31.

from a country like ours. Hospitals like this one are running

:49:32.:49:33.

at 95% capacity which means they are nearly full so with more

:49:34.:49:36.

emergency cases coming in and difficulty discharging some

:49:37.:49:39.

patients back into the community some of those needing surgery

:49:40.:49:42.

are having to wait longer. Our health editor and special

:49:43.:49:50.

correspondent and social No question about the comprehensive

:49:51.:49:52.

nature of the coverage but some viewers told us by telephone

:49:53.:49:58.

and webcam that they were concerned about the effect of that coverage

:49:59.:50:01.

and that the BBC had Every night this week we have seen

:50:02.:50:04.

the BBC 6pm and 10pm news leading with the story on the current

:50:05.:50:13.

state of the NHS. We all know there are many

:50:14.:50:16.

problems in the NHS, and there are many reasons for this

:50:17.:50:19.

including bed blocking, immigration, lifestyles,

:50:20.:50:22.

health tourism, waste, bad procurement, trivial

:50:23.:50:23.

A visits and so on. And yet BBC news would rather have

:50:24.:50:27.

us believe the problems are all due to so-called Tory cuts and that

:50:28.:50:32.

throwing more money at the problem Please, BBC, get your house in order

:50:33.:50:43.

and start reporting the news This campaign should be reserved

:50:44.:50:51.

for a Panorama programme, I understand there are serious

:50:52.:50:56.

problems in the NHS and I understand that things have got

:50:57.:51:02.

worse by some measures, however, BBC News seems to be trying

:51:03.:51:04.

to make us feel angry. We have better health

:51:05.:51:07.

care than most. Please try and help us to feel

:51:08.:51:19.

grateful for what we have and try to help us make things

:51:20.:51:23.

better rather than constantly I am not newsworthy because I am one

:51:24.:51:26.

of the thousands of people who have received treatment from the NHS over

:51:27.:51:31.

the last few months who have nothing I only have praise for

:51:32.:51:35.

the dedicated, professional staff who have carried out

:51:36.:51:38.

treatment on their behalf. This week we have been bombarded

:51:39.:51:40.

by the news on all channels telling us what is wrong with our

:51:41.:51:44.

National Health Service. What you have as the BBC

:51:45.:51:55.

is responsibility in terms of making sure we do not demoralise the staff

:51:56.:51:59.

any more than they already are. I asked a nurse if she was impacted

:52:00.:52:03.

by the adverse publicity seen She looked at me as if it

:52:04.:52:06.

was a silly question. The BBC has spent the last week

:52:07.:52:11.

with intensive wall-to-wall coverage of bad news about the NHS and some

:52:12.:52:14.

important things are needed to be However, the effect

:52:15.:52:18.

of that is to produce a downwards Come on BBC, it is not that we don't

:52:19.:52:23.

need to know about these bad things and they do need addressing,

:52:24.:52:34.

but I think that the benefit of the NHS and our appreciation

:52:35.:52:37.

of it we should hear some Well, the health editor for BBC News

:52:38.:52:40.

has been on the news for much Viewers, as you can see

:52:41.:52:48.

from looking at those clips, have felt there's been so much

:52:49.:52:54.

coverage focusing on the negative things, waiting times

:52:55.:52:57.

and cancellations, they wonder whether the BBC is hyping

:52:58.:52:59.

up a sense of crisis? There have been several strong

our BBC News output. We did some research on waiting

:53:31.:53:48.

said that health spending in England has gone up but per person

:53:49.:53:52.

it will start falling. On Thursday, very bleak figures

:53:53.:53:55.

from NHS England on how the performance in December

:53:56.:53:58.

was the worst since records began and looked like it was going to get

:53:59.:54:00.

worse in January after documents I think it is our job to report

:54:01.:54:04.

on facts and figures In terms of staff morale,

:54:05.:54:08.

I take on board what people were saying there about staff

:54:09.:54:13.

feeling downtrodden because of this. Equally we have had contact,

:54:14.:54:16.

e-mails and calls, from staff who said it is really good

:54:17.:54:18.

that the BBC is focusing on what is really going on,

:54:19.:54:21.

from senior consultants to junior This is what the BBC should be doing

:54:22.:54:24.

and it has not done enough One viewer said that they felt

:54:25.:54:29.

the coverage felt like a downward spiral of despondency

:54:30.:54:36.

and that was so overwhelming that perhaps it needs to be balanced

:54:37.:54:39.

with some coverage that shows There has been quite

:54:40.:54:42.

a lot of positive side. There was a big debate on health

:54:43.:54:51.

involving patients and staff and other health experts,

:54:52.:54:54.

including some patient testimony on the positives they

:54:55.:54:56.

found with the NHS. We have had coverage throughout

:54:57.:55:03.

the week on different aspects of how GPs are coming to terms

:55:04.:55:06.

with the different challenges. The news channel has reports

:55:07.:55:10.

on innovative schemes to link up We had a Yeovil Hospital scheme that

:55:11.:55:13.

aims to look after older patients in their autumn this book facility

away from accident and emergency. We tried hard to talk

:55:23.:55:27.

about the positives possible solutions, but equally

:55:28.:55:29.

we have two state the facts It is a difficult balance

:55:30.:55:31.

and we are holding an important institution to account,

:55:32.:55:39.

and it should be about providing the best possible patient care

:55:40.:55:42.

and the government should make sure it is funded adequately

:55:43.:55:45.

and it is making efficient use Some complaints have been

:55:46.:55:47.

but it is felt the BBC is politically campaigning

:55:48.:55:59.

and saying it is about more funding There is the opinion that the NHS

:56:00.:56:02.

should have more funding, but health spending in the UK

:56:03.:56:07.

as a whole as a share of national income is below France and Germany,

:56:08.:56:11.

it is falling, the ISS during the week have made clear that

:56:12.:56:14.

spending will fall in a way it has never done before in terms

:56:15.:56:18.

of spending per head of population. We have taken those arguments

:56:19.:56:28.

and put them forward. We have been accused in the past

:56:29.:56:30.

of not addressing lack of funding. We are not being political,

:56:31.:56:34.

we're stating facts. Equally, we have been very clear

:56:35.:56:37.

that there are some who feel the NHS could make more efficient

:56:38.:56:44.

use of their resources reflected that argument,

:56:45.:56:46.

it is not just about money it is about better ways of joining

:56:47.:56:49.

up care, better ways When is it justified to broadcast

which says parks are suffering It warns there's a danger of a

:05:09.:05:10.

return to the neglect of the 1980s. Instead of kind of regarding parks

:05:11.:05:19.

as a kind of only a leisure and recreation area of service,

:05:20.:05:22.

we should be thinking about parks as big contributors to public

:05:23.:05:25.

health, and to environmental policy and to community cohesion,

:05:26.:05:31.

and maybe they can be reprioritised. But there is fundamentally a problem

:05:32.:05:35.

about the level of cuts that local authorities have been experiencing,

:05:36.:05:38.

the distribution of the cuts across the country and the very,

:05:39.:05:40.

very difficult decisions that many local authorities

:05:41.:05:43.

are having to make. Labour has issued formal warnings

:05:44.:05:51.

to members of its front-bench team who disobeyed Jeremy Corbyn's order

on suspicion of murder. The decision to end a scheme to let

:06:13.:06:18.

unaccompanied refugee children into the UK is shameful according

to the Scottish First She's urged the Prime Minister

:06:22.:06:23.

to change her mind saying there is a moral duty to help

those in need. The scheme's due to end in March

with 350 children being admitted far fewer than some campaigners had

:06:30.:06:32.

hoped for. Volunteers have told Breakfast

:06:33.:06:42.

in the past few hours than 200 more whales have become stranded

:06:43.:06:45.

on a beach in New Zealand. Hundreds more have already died

:06:46.:06:47.

in one of the biggest ever mass It's hoped the pilot whales may be

:06:48.:06:50.

able to swim to safety Just to warn you, you might find

:06:51.:06:54.

some of the scenes in this report As they wait for high tide

:06:55.:07:13.

volunteers do whatever they can to cool them. Pouring water and

:07:14.:07:18.

covering the creatures in cloths helps to regulate body temperature.

:07:19.:07:22.

Temporary measures until they can be released into the ocean.

:07:23.:07:28.

Some hope singing will prove soothing.

:07:29.:07:32.

And then the sound of success. But it is early days.

:07:33.:07:37.

Very quickly the tide has come in and we are up to our knees. Some up

:07:38.:07:41.

to their waists in water and we are getting a bit of floating and we are

:07:42.:07:46.

helping assist the whaling with the breathing until the water is deep

:07:47.:07:50.

enough they can swim It's a devastating image, would be testify

:07:51.:07:54.

worst in the country's history, it is unclear what brings them into the

:07:55.:07:58.

beech. Some believe they may be sick or injured or have lost their way,

:07:59.:08:03.

another theory is when a single whale is beached it sends out a

:08:04.:08:07.

distress signal attracting other members of the pod. Once ashore it

:08:08.:08:12.

is hard to get them back in to the ocean. We have the whales off that

:08:13.:08:18.

have survived overnight and we have lost sight of them, but the bad part

:08:19.:08:24.

of the story is a separate pod of 240 whales have come on and

:08:25.:08:28.

restranded south of that. So, we have been fighting to keep those

:08:29.:08:34.

ones happy, but it is grim out hire. Lifting and moving can prove

:08:35.:08:38.

difficult so it is all down to the tide but with dangerous conditions

:08:39.:08:41.

on the water, the operation has been stood down for now.

:08:42.:08:47.

One other story. Hundreds of people have been competing in a sport that

:08:48.:08:54.

combines dancing and flying indoors. Have a look at this. This is the

:08:55.:08:59.

wind games. That, that doesn't look like real people does it. You can

:09:00.:09:03.

compete in pairs as you can see, fours or as a solo contestant and

:09:04.:09:09.

you get marks for speed and accuracy.

:09:10.:09:13.

That is so... How do they not crash into each other? That is a very

:09:14.:09:18.

strange image, the winds games, I never knew they existed. Nine

:09:19.:09:20.

minutes past eight is the time now, we will have the sport coming up

:09:21.:09:24.

Mark Lancaster, Minister for Defence Personnel

:09:39.:09:51.

Good morning. Thank you for joining us. So, I mean tell us how you ended

:09:52.:10:00.

up being falsely accused of the war crimes. It was on 200414th May,

:10:01.:10:07.

blistering heat, was given a command to dismount from my vehicle we were

:10:08.:10:12.

in, and launch a full frontal assault on a heavily defended

:10:13.:10:19.

trench, occupied by the militia Mehdi Army. Obviously you did what

:10:20.:10:22.

you had to do in the situation and when you came back, how did you find

:10:23.:10:27.

out that you were then being accused of doing something wrong? That day

:10:28.:10:38.

was a five hours intense violent battle which you know, in extreme

:10:39.:10:44.

circumstances decision making had to be had, I was a young commander at

:10:45.:10:49.

23 years old. Thinking that what I did on the ground was the right

:10:50.:10:52.

thing to do and the right decisions that I had made. It wasn't perfect

:10:53.:10:57.

but the guys on the ground with me, and I, we survived to, to get home

:10:58.:11:05.

then, and to then find out about these allegations was hard breaking.

:11:06.:11:09.

What kind of impact it did it have, your family must have been gutted as

:11:10.:11:14.

well? It questioned my integrity as a commander, you know. Like, you

:11:15.:11:21.

know, we go to war, we go on operations for this great country,

:11:22.:11:27.

and you know, to have your actions questioned, when you get home, and

:11:28.:11:30.

the allegations were at the highest order. Unlawful killing. Mutilation,

:11:31.:11:35.

and then mistreatment of prisoners of war. That just did not happen,

:11:36.:11:41.

and I just don't know where they got the fuel from, I really don't.

:11:42.:11:44.

Obviously now that has been completely thrown out, there was no

:11:45.:11:50.

evidence, and lots of cases, there was something like 3500 cases that

:11:51.:11:54.

this unit they were looking at, it has been closed down, how do you

:11:55.:11:59.

feel about it? Steph, it is good news, it is good news. Long overdue,

:12:00.:12:04.

clearly, but it is good news. Look, we had holes in our systems which

:12:05.:12:15.

were exploited, by bloodthirsty dishonest, greedy, with zero

:12:16.:12:22.

integrity organisations to you know, put people's lives and turn them

:12:23.:12:27.

upside down. This has been going on for year, its has had lasting impact

:12:28.:12:31.

on you and your family and other soldier, you say it was long overdue

:12:32.:12:36.

this closure, what do you think the Government should have done then? I

:12:37.:12:42.

can only speak on behalf of me, my soldiers an my regiment and the

:12:43.:12:47.

inquiry which lasted for ten years, because of the seriousness of the

:12:48.:12:52.

allegations, they should have looked into them into so much detail,

:12:53.:12:58.

before you know, releasing it as a public inquiry, going into a court.

:12:59.:13:01.

Radio, I have never had, I have never been in that situation before,

:13:02.:13:05.

never, and having to get cross-examined into an intimidation

:13:06.:13:08.

environment like that, where I have people questioning and questioning

:13:09.:13:12.

and questioning my action, I sort of question my actions also, because I

:13:13.:13:17.

was, you know, getting told that many times they did it wrong, you

:13:18.:13:21.

know, I started to think did I do it wrong? But I knew me and my fellow

:13:22.:13:27.

soldiers and my regiment's integrity and values an standards of the

:13:28.:13:31.

British arm were of the highest order. What impact has it an on your

:13:32.:13:36.

regiment and the soldiers you were with? It is tarnished, without a

:13:37.:13:41.

doubt. I can speak for my and my soldiers and what they have put it

:13:42.:13:46.

through, for that period of time, it was damaging to the glee of careers,

:13:47.:13:55.

marital split ups and fuelling the fire of PTSD, and the trauma that we

:13:56.:14:00.

had seen on the battlefield. Not just me, we had been war fighting

:14:01.:14:04.

for the last ten years so there is a lot of it going on, but just to get

:14:05.:14:08.

these allegations thrown at you, is, it is a bitter pill to swallow. Is

:14:09.:14:12.

there anything the Government could do now? They have done something

:14:13.:14:17.

now, they have put something into place, the cases are now dropped.

:14:18.:14:21.

Any extra they should be doing in hindsight? That is for the

:14:22.:14:24.

Government to decide, and lessons learned. The MoD and the Government

:14:25.:14:28.

have big lessons to learn and do that post action review on the

:14:29.:14:32.

lessons, that, you know, need to be learned and I will leave it like

:14:33.:14:36.

that. Thank you so much for. Coming in to tell us your story. We really

:14:37.:14:39.

appreciate that. Listening to that from the news room

:14:40.:14:45.

is the minister for veterans. Thank you for your time.

:14:46.:14:49.

I hope you were able to hear what he was saying. It is a searing

:14:50.:14:54.

condemnation of an ordeal that he and many other soldiers were put

:14:55.:14:58.

through, what is your immediate thought when you hear the personal

:14:59.:15:03.

and professional impact that the inquiry had? It very moving. I can

:15:04.:15:15.

empathise I joined in army in 19988, I still serve as a reserve, din't

:15:16.:15:20.

serve in Iraq and I absolutely understand and feel for our service

:15:21.:15:23.

personnel who have been through this, I hat was set up for the right

:15:24.:15:28.

reasons, so that our service personnel wouldn't have to go to the

:15:29.:15:32.

international criminal court, but unfortunately in the process it was

:15:33.:15:35.

abused and that is why the Government took the action it did,

:15:36.:15:44.

after the inquiry, by reporting Phil Shine tore the regulatory authority

:15:45.:15:47.

and why after two years, after he has been struck off, we are able to

:15:48.:15:52.

brick this to an end, and so it is just a great #145i78 what was done

:15:53.:15:55.

for the right reasons has been abused. So the Iraq historic

:15:56.:16:04.

allegations team, why wasn't it shut down sooner, because we heard their

:16:05.:16:09.

account from Brian Wood, he was cross-examined, the ordeal that he

:16:10.:16:15.

went through, what stage were there any indications that this set up was

:16:16.:16:20.

fundamentally flawed and if there were signs earlier on why was it not

:16:21.:16:24.

at least paused or halted before people had to go through that? Well,

:16:25.:16:28.

I hope everybody accepts that the Government does have a duty to

:16:29.:16:33.

investigate allegations and that is why in good faith this inquiry, this

:16:34.:16:38.

team was set up. Clearly, after the inquiry, it became clear when the

:16:39.:16:42.

judge gave his judgment, that he felt many of the allegations lacked

:16:43.:16:46.

any basis whatsoever. It was at that point, that the Government took the

:16:47.:16:51.

unprecedented step to report Phil Shiner and that has taken some two

:16:52.:16:56.

yearses. I regret it has taken two years but at least we have a

:16:57.:17:00.

positive outcome. There will be lessons to learned from this as we

:17:01.:17:04.

move forward. It has taken longer than I hoped for but the Government

:17:05.:17:07.

has taken positive accuse sunnion and today we see the is outcome of

:17:08.:17:11.

that. Where then does this leave the other side of the coin, which is the

:17:12.:17:16.

notion that as a result of what has happened here, that genuine cases

:17:17.:17:20.

may now get ignored? Well, that won't be the case, because we do

:17:21.:17:25.

feel that we will move down from about 3,000 cases to probably about

:17:26.:17:28.

20, they will be properly investigated by the Royal Naval

:17:29.:17:32.

police, that is a process that has been running in parallel and now

:17:33.:17:35.

will move forward but equally it is important that is brought to a swift

:17:36.:17:39.

conclusion, so we hope that will be done by, towards the end of the

:17:40.:17:43.

summer. You mentioned your own experience at the begin of the

:17:44.:17:47.

interview, it was interesting talking to Brian a moment ago about

:17:48.:17:51.

the damage he thought that was done possibly more generally, to, if you

:17:52.:17:55.

like, the image of British service personnel and the image of this

:17:56.:18:00.

nation, in relation to wider international irissue, that can be

:18:01.:18:03.

very long-standing, regardless of the fact that now the evidence has

:18:04.:18:07.

been thrown out entirely. Well, I accept that, but that simply

:18:08.:18:11.

underlines why the Government must investigate this, we must give the

:18:12.:18:14.

confidence to the wider public that when allegations are made they are

:18:15.:18:19.

investigated. We can't simply sweep things under the carpet: I regret

:18:20.:18:22.

this process, which is set up in good faith was abused by the likes

:18:23.:18:27.

of Phil Shiner. Now we have got through that process we can move

:18:28.:18:30.

forward. Focus on the few allegations which may have some

:18:31.:18:34.

substance but they will be properly investigated and that hopefully will

:18:35.:18:37.

bring confidence we look at these things properly. Thank you for your

:18:38.:18:39.

time. School-children in England are going

:18:40.:18:53.

to be offered lessons in cyber security, it is hoped that more than

:18:54.:18:57.

5,000 teenagers will spend up to four hours a week on the subject

:18:58.:19:01.

over the next five years. President Trump is said to be considering a

:19:02.:19:05.

new executive order on immigration, it follows reports it might not take

:19:06.:19:13.

his case to reinstate his case to the travel ban to the Supreme Court.

:19:14.:19:17.

We are being warned public parks are at threat because of a lack of

:19:18.:19:23.

funding. We he few find out of how we can keep green spaces free for

:19:24.:19:26.

future generations. We will talk about that later. If

:19:27.:19:31.

you are out in the park this morning, if it is snowy, sunny send

:19:32.:19:35.

Here's Matt with a look at this morning's weather.

:19:36.:19:41.

Good morning. If you are heading off to the park today, certainly wrap up

:19:42.:19:49.

well, it will be a chilly day, raw winds developing and as some have

:19:50.:19:53.

been capturing there has been a dusting of snow. A few centimetres

:19:54.:19:57.

here and there, makes for a pretty start but slippery on some of the

:19:58.:20:02.

roads and pavements but not snow every where, we have rather grey

:20:03.:20:05.

skies for the bullet to have country but a bit of sunshine for one or

:20:06.:20:09.

two, Northern Ireland, western Scotland sunnier spots this morning

:20:10.:20:12.

and throughout the day. Temperatures in the north-west high land down to

:20:13.:20:16.

minus ten through the night. It is rain and drizzle round the coast,

:20:17.:20:20.

sleet and snowover land. Same for northern England. A coating of snow

:20:21.:20:25.

in the Pennines and Peak District. It will be mainly sleet and snow for

:20:26.:20:29.

eastern wails, and the south-west, as well as the far south-east, Kent,

:20:30.:20:35.

Suffolk and Sussex, that will give a further coating of snow. For most it

:20:36.:20:40.

will turn back to rain through the day. Temperatures will rise a bit

:20:41.:20:43.

and as I said some of that snow will melt, not causing much in the way of

:20:44.:20:50.

problems. Still snow on the hills, Scotland and Northern Ireland still

:20:51.:20:53.

have the sunshine, a cold day in store. It won't feel above freezing

:20:54.:21:01.

because of the wind. It is is the layers needed. A few flakes the of

:21:02.:21:06.

snow will continue through the night. Mainly over the hills. There

:21:07.:21:11.

will be some to lower level, the wint continuing to strengthen.

:21:12.:21:16.

Touching gale force in some parts. Lightest winds in northern Scotland.

:21:17.:21:19.

The best chance of frost into Sunday morning. Not as much sunshine

:21:20.:21:22.

tomorrow, same too for Northern Ireland, compared with today. It is

:21:23.:21:26.

a cloudy day, maybe more brightens in the south, for most it is another

:21:27.:21:31.

grey day, a wind away day, bringing in further patchy rain, sleet and

:21:32.:21:36.

snow, and it will make it feel even colder probably than today, given

:21:37.:21:39.

the winds will be that bit stronger. If it is too much for you just have

:21:40.:21:44.

a bit of faith because things are set to get that bit milder. If you

:21:45.:21:49.

get a bit of sunshine to go with that, compared to what we have that

:21:50.:22:02.

will feel like spring. We will have a look at The Papers

:22:03.:22:04.

now. David Davies, Former Chief Executive

:22:05.:22:11.

of the Football Association is here to tell us what's

:22:12.:22:13.

caught his eye. You picked out some of your stories

:22:14.:22:27.

for us. We have had had NHS week, stories highlighted and that is

:22:28.:22:32.

where you started. Yes, you would be a Health Secretary in a winter like

:22:33.:22:40.

this one? Queues in the corridor, cancelled appointment, A

:22:41.:22:45.

nightmares, at the centre of it Jeremy Hunt. I think I am right in

:22:46.:22:49.

saying when he was reappointed as Health Secretary he expected to get

:22:50.:22:54.

sacked, when David Cameron left, so perhaps he wishes he was, but here

:22:55.:23:00.

we have in a number of The Papers NHS crisis is completely

:23:01.:23:06.

unacceptable, he says. And the Daily Mirror says the man responsible. The

:23:07.:23:12.

problem is everyone is as ever looking for blame, but the, I regret

:23:13.:23:18.

to say that the problems of the NHS and the problems of an ageing

:23:19.:23:21.

population and what comes with it, has been talked about in this

:23:22.:23:28.

country to my knowledge for 20 years, and by successive Governments

:23:29.:23:33.

and it is harsh, blaming him, and him alone. One of the arguments is

:23:34.:23:38.

about perhaps we should be paying more tax, and of course, this is

:23:39.:23:42.

something that the Archbishop of Canterbury is talk take about and

:23:43.:23:46.

saying the rich should be paying more. It's the old problem, should

:23:47.:23:52.

the church ever get involved in politics, wasn't there in a previous

:23:53.:23:57.

generation, many, many generations ago, there was a king who once said

:23:58.:24:02.

will no-one rid me of this troublesome priest? That was about

:24:03.:24:08.

Thomas a Beckett. This goes on in our society, the Archbishop of

:24:09.:24:13.

Canterbury stoking a fresh row, the Daily Mail tells us as he called for

:24:14.:24:18.

the rich to pay more tax, inevitably he is saying some people will have

:24:19.:24:22.

to pay more in the future and then the, they go to the Tory MP, in this

:24:23.:24:29.

case Philip Davies, who says if Mr Well by wants to volunteer to pay

:24:30.:24:35.

more income tax he can send his cheque to HMRC and they will be

:24:36.:24:39.

pleased. That is what they always say, that debate has gone on. My own

:24:40.:24:44.

view is the church is damned if it gets involved and it is called

:24:45.:24:48.

irrelevant if it doesn't. The next story you will choose, those are two

:24:49.:24:55.

things we talked about so far, huge, sometimes people feel powerless to

:24:56.:24:58.

affect, the NHS and religion, this is one that is every day life. Life.

:24:59.:25:03.

Little things that can make a big difference. I have to declare an

:25:04.:25:07.

interest about this story, because not very long ago, for the first

:25:08.:25:13.

time in my life, somebody offered to stand up for me, o on the tube, and

:25:14.:25:19.

they obviously took pity on me, and in, at my age, and I didn't know

:25:20.:25:25.

whether to laugh or cry. I wanted to say thank you, thank you, but it's a

:25:26.:25:31.

sign of the time. This, if there a pregnant woman onboard who is the

:25:32.:25:37.

most likely to get up? Women are less likely, they pretend not to

:25:38.:25:42.

notice an expectant mother. The younger generation are more

:25:43.:25:45.

considerate of elderly or pregnant passengers than their older

:25:46.:25:48.

counterparts. Now that doesn't surprise me, some of the rudeness

:25:49.:25:53.

that I see from dare I is a my own generation, on tube trains is far

:25:54.:25:56.

greater than anything I ever see from the young. It is that classic

:25:57.:26:00.

isn't it, where a pregnant lady will get on and everyone, you know, looks

:26:01.:26:06.

to the floor, that annoys me. I have to say on buses and tubes, I often

:26:07.:26:12.

think I see the opposite, which like to think, I see it a, a lot of

:26:13.:26:17.

people being much more engaged and offering up more often. Do you see

:26:18.:26:21.

the opposite? Yes I see a lot of that. There is a conclusion guys,

:26:22.:26:24.

that is really good news for everybody. The conclusion of this, I

:26:25.:26:29.

think it is an Italian, this survey has been done, it has been done in

:26:30.:26:36.

the UK as well, and around 97% of Brits, consider themselves to be

:26:37.:26:42.

nice people. Well that is OK. What is your definition of Nice? OK. Did

:26:43.:26:46.

you take the seat when it was offered to me. I didn't because I

:26:47.:26:51.

was only one station away, if I had been 21 stations, well I probably

:26:52.:26:54.

would have done. And you are perfectly fine I am not bad. Do you

:26:55.:27:00.

want to take a moment to address the issues of the FA this week? Maybe

:27:01.:27:06.

people don't know the ins and outs are thinking we have a butch of --

:27:07.:27:12.

bunch of MPs having a go at an organisation, and where does this

:27:13.:27:16.

get us? That, what you are talking about is precisely the problem, the

:27:17.:27:23.

problem of perception, -- perception. People say whue should

:27:24.:27:28.

fans bother about the governance of the FA? It does matter, because the

:27:29.:27:33.

whole question is, there are no agreed priority, you can't tell me

:27:34.:27:37.

what the agreed priorities of English football are today. I can't

:27:38.:27:40.

tell you either. You would hope it is to run the FA in... Hang on.

:27:41.:27:47.

There aren't any agreed priorities because people come from the Premier

:27:48.:27:51.

League which has priority, the FA has its priority, the Football

:27:52.:27:55.

League has its priorities, there is no one way of governing one agreed

:27:56.:27:59.

set of priorities for the English game as a whole. That is part and

:28:00.:28:06.

parcel, because there is not enough independence, there are not enough

:28:07.:28:08.

women, there are not enough representatives of the society in

:28:09.:28:12.

which we live. So what is the point of them? Hang hang on a minute, the

:28:13.:28:17.

point of them is there are, thousands, hundreds of thousands of

:28:18.:28:21.

good people doing wonderful work, welcome back the FA, week in, week

:28:22.:28:27.

out, running football in the park, running women's teams, developing,

:28:28.:28:32.

but the corporate governance, what we expect, from corporate governance

:28:33.:28:36.

in business in this society, we don't see. So just help us with this

:28:37.:28:41.

one, so this group of 60 plus... People like me. White middle aged

:28:42.:28:47.

men, who run the FA, they get threatened with what is it, ?30

:28:48.:28:51.

million you might lose, do you honestly think that that will make

:28:52.:28:54.

them think, for a second? And of course what you will say is that is

:28:55.:29:00.

a third of the cost of Manchester United's signing Paul Pogba from

:29:01.:29:04.

Juventus or where ever. And that is, I absolutely take that point, but

:29:05.:29:10.

that money is football development, at the grass roots, and that is very

:29:11.:29:13.

important, and that money will have to come from somewhere else, by the

:29:14.:29:18.

way, presumably, you would think the Premier League, but that will be a

:29:19.:29:23.

debate within football, but the Government does have other weapons

:29:24.:29:27.

of course, and for example, nobody could ever successfully bid for a

:29:28.:29:33.

World Cup, without the support of its Government and this Government

:29:34.:29:37.

is saying, we will not do that, unless and until the FA reforms

:29:38.:29:41.

itself. That is punishing the wrong teem isn't it. That is the whole

:29:42.:29:46.

point. You have to ask whose fault that is. I have confidence that this

:29:47.:29:51.

time we have created, we are creating an atmosphere where change

:29:52.:29:55.

will come from within, and the existing chairman, is confidence

:29:56.:29:57.

that he can -- confident he can pull it through. On that note we will

:29:58.:30:02.

stop and you will come back in an hour's time.

:30:03.:30:06.

Still to come this morning. Make cycling safer, that is the call

:30:07.:30:11.

from campaigners in London after three riders were killed in the past

:30:12.:30:15.

four days on the dam's roads. We will talk about that in a few

:30:16.:30:18.

minutes time and headlines in a moment.

:30:19.:30:51.

Hello, this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Steph McGovern.

:30:52.:30:56.

Matt will have the weather and Mike will have the sport. Now a summary

the presidential order imposing restrictions on travel to the US

to travellers from Earlier this week an appeals court

upheld the suspension The case may now proceed

to the Supreme Court. The funding of parks has reached

:31:37.:31:43.

a tipping point and new ways of paying for them may have

:31:44.:31:46.

to be found. That's according to

:31:47.:31:48.

the Commons Communities and Local Government Committee

which says parks are suffering It warns there's a danger of a

return to the neglect of the 1980s. Labour has issued formal warnings

:31:52.:32:00.

to members of its front-bench team who disobeyed Jeremy Corbyn's order

:32:01.:32:03.

to vote for Brexit. Among those who ignored Mr Corbyn

:32:04.:32:08.

were 11 shadow junior ministers Those are the main stories this

:32:09.:32:35.

morning. Now look at the sport. The song Delilah has been played to the

:32:36.:32:41.

England players by Eddie Jones in the gym. He is a famous Welsh

:32:42.:32:48.

singer. It is mind games. How does that work? Did Eddie Jones' first

:32:49.:32:54.

trip as England coach. He has been full of mind games and he has got

:32:55.:32:59.

his wish, the roof will be open for this one and history tells us that

:33:00.:33:06.

England have won four out of five matches with the roof open in

:33:07.:33:11.

Cardiff. Whales wanted it shut -- Wales wanted it shut for the

:33:12.:33:20.

atmosphere. Both camps have been telling us how they have prepared.

:33:21.:33:26.

Tom Jones is out of my error. The players were not too happy hearing

:33:27.:33:35.

Delilah in the gym. It is not a hit they are happy with. They would

:33:36.:33:39.

prefer songs of the moment. That we have looked at something that we can

:33:40.:33:46.

control and that is all we can do. Standing in the doorway and the

:33:47.:33:49.

doorway gets little bit smaller. You come out and there are 75,000 fans.

:33:50.:33:55.

We hope it will be a good 80 minute game. You realise we are in a very

:33:56.:34:00.

fortunate place. You get to enjoy the anthem before. Hopefully we can

:34:01.:34:07.

put some smiles on faces. The build-up starts on BBC One at

:34:08.:34:10.

4:15pm. Ireland will be hoping to bounce

back from their surprise defeat They face Italy in Rome in the early

game, while Scotland are in Paris History was made in the Premier

:34:15.:34:30.

League as Tom Varndell became the all-time try scorer, he scored his

:34:31.:34:38.

91st Premiership try to take him beyond Mark Cueto's record.

:34:39.:34:42.

A last gasp penalty from, Rhys Priestland, gave third place

:34:43.:34:45.

Bath, a one point victory over Northampton.

:34:46.:34:46.

Elsewhere Sale Sharks beat Newcastle.

:34:47.:34:48.

Scarlets moved into the top four, of the Pro 12,

:34:49.:34:50.

Tom Williams scored one of their two tries.

:34:51.:34:53.

The top two of Munster, and Ospreys, both won, and so did Ulster.

:34:54.:34:58.

On to football. The big news tonight, I was walking across the

:34:59.:35:09.

park and two big men said, he's gone, he's gone back into work! I

:35:10.:35:15.

thought was it Mark Wolverton? But there is confusion now. Here is down

:35:16.:35:28.

macro -- Dan. I don't think he will be in charge this weekend. We are

:35:29.:35:36.

going to try to get to the bottom of that today. We have a nice piece on

:35:37.:35:42.

Scottish football. Neil Lennon will be talking to us. There is the first

:35:43.:35:46.

Edinburgh derby for Neil Lennon since he took over. There trying to

:35:47.:35:50.

get to the bottom of the Mark Waugh button issue in Scotland. And we

:35:51.:35:55.

also have a fascinating interview with Henrik Mick tarry in. He was

:35:56.:36:05.

not played by Jose Mourinho. The Qatari -- we will ask what it is

:36:06.:36:11.

like to arrive with that price tag. His attitude is a very interesting

:36:12.:36:15.

one will stop here is a bit of the interview. If I was 22, 23 years old

:36:16.:36:23.

when I came to Manchester, I would suffer, maybe I would have many

:36:24.:36:27.

problems, because I would take things very seriously. If I wouldn't

:36:28.:36:32.

play, I be would sad, I would be mad. Maybe I wouldn't talk to my

:36:33.:36:37.

friends or my family. But I said this is life. If you just smile to

:36:38.:36:44.

your life, the world will smile too. I just kept smiling and working and

:36:45.:36:50.

now I am happy. It is fascinating because he did not arrive with a

:36:51.:36:54.

fanfare of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, he was almost under the radar. I think

:36:55.:37:00.

that is at Mike Bushell attitude! Just smile and things will be OK.

:37:01.:37:06.

Have you seen Mike's mining peace? There was not a lot of smiling

:37:07.:37:16.

there. I do noisy scared. If you have no idea what we are talking

:37:17.:37:20.

about, Mike has been down a mine. We will see that in a moment. We have

:37:21.:37:26.

an interview with Paul Clement who arrived at Swansea in the bottom

:37:27.:37:29.

three and when he arrived everyone said he has Championship experience,

:37:30.:37:35.

he must be prepared for going down. He is manager of the month and has

:37:36.:37:40.

turned things around. I know you played Ian Wright's clip last night

:37:41.:37:48.

saying is this the final season for Arsene Wenger? So we have that as

:37:49.:37:53.

well. And also Danny Mills and Martin Keown to discuss that from 12

:37:54.:38:00.

o'clock on BBC One. It will be the full 60 minutes. You go and get

:38:01.:38:06.

ready. Sheffield Wednesday are on course to reach the play-offs in the

:38:07.:38:10.

Championship after beating Birmingham city and their spending

:38:11.:38:13.

in the transfer window is paying off already.

:38:56.:38:59.

He'll now face either Marco Fu or Ryan Day on Sunday.

:39:00.:39:02.

What we were talking about was that Snowdonia has been building itself

:39:03.:39:11.

as a centre for adventure sports. There is the fastest zip wire and a

:39:12.:39:18.

surfing lake and now former slate mines have been brought back to life

:39:19.:39:22.

to add a huge adrenaline rush to history lessons. I don't think I

:39:23.:39:26.

have ever been as scared as when I joined a school party in the vast

:39:27.:39:28.

case at Blaenau Ffestiniog. Beneath this sci-fi landscape, there

:39:29.:39:41.

is an industrial world waiting to be discovered again. Another of 300

:39:42.:39:47.

tunnels and caverns, 24 stories deep. Former slate mines to be

:39:48.:39:52.

explored using climbing skills and zip wires, giving you an insight

:39:53.:39:56.

into the life of a minor 200 feet the rock face. Tell me this is not

:39:57.:40:03.

real, that this is a horrible dream? There are staples hammered into the

:40:04.:40:08.

rock. Of course, your faith due to a harness and special clips which

:40:09.:40:11.

cannot be unhooked at the same time but your mind paralyse is you with

:40:12.:40:15.

fear. I am on a wooden plank 100 feet in the air across an old

:40:16.:40:22.

quarry! See you later. What is incredible as when you stop for a

:40:23.:40:25.

moment and look down and look around and realise this is where people

:40:26.:40:29.

work! How terrifying must that have been? Some forced to work here were

:40:30.:40:36.

as young as six years old. When I first came here I learned what the

:40:37.:40:40.

miners had to do with the tools. We have a great safety system but they

:40:41.:40:44.

just used chains around their legs and hang on the edge of the war. It

:40:45.:40:47.

is crazy that they would do that for 12 hours a day in the pitch black.

:40:48.:40:53.

Erol worked on the open minds here until the 1970s but now he is back

:40:54.:40:58.

working as a safety inspector. It has given them a new lease of life.

:40:59.:41:06.

It brings people and money in. There is a saying that line-up is been

:41:07.:41:09.

York ruled the world so we are very proud of the culture and we have

:41:10.:41:14.

embraced that culture -- Plan A demurred ruled the world. Once it

:41:15.:41:18.

had the training it is up to you to get around the three-hour course.

:41:19.:41:24.

Once you have conquered the fears in your head, it starts to become more

:41:25.:41:29.

enjoyable now. The sensation when you have achieved it is outstanding.

:41:30.:41:34.

You learn more about yourself than you do looking at your iPhone. The

:41:35.:41:40.

ten and 11-year-old school pupils took it in their stride. Having seen

:41:41.:41:47.

one lad fall of the monkey bars 200 feet up... It was really scary, I

:41:48.:41:53.

thought I would fall. I gave it a miss heading for the final heart

:41:54.:41:57.

stopping challenge. This is the stairway to heaven.

:41:58.:42:08.

And they say the steepest zip wire -- and they saved the steepest zip

:42:09.:42:22.

wire to last. Some people do this everyday! Mad! What is it about fear

:42:23.:42:27.

that it gets worse with age? I did not think I was scared of heights

:42:28.:42:33.

and to that. There are vast caverns, 24 stories of them. And the

:42:34.:42:39.

darkness. It is an amazing place to bring back to life.

:42:40.:42:46.

And the youngsters on the trip are learning as well? Once you have had

:42:47.:42:50.

your training, you have three hours to get yourself around. You are

:42:51.:42:53.

responsible for your own safety. You can go to the website for more

:42:54.:42:58.

places to go. I can't believe you have finally found something you are

:42:59.:43:00.

scared of! Oh, yes! Your heating bills are likely to go

:43:01.:43:11.

this year because the three big gas and electricity suppliers have

:43:12.:43:17.

announced price rises. British Gas has announced its customers will

:43:18.:43:22.

have prices frozen until August. We can talk to Paul Lillis, the

:43:23.:43:28.

presenter of Radio 4's money box programme. -- Paul Lewis.

:43:29.:43:36.

It is announce the big companies are putting up their prices? Last year

:43:37.:43:42.

they announced a fall but now they are going up. That is partly because

:43:43.:43:48.

the wholesale price is going up. But also they are blaming government

:43:49.:43:53.

schemes, that schemes to help with installation costs and also this ?11

:43:54.:43:58.

billion programme of changing every metre to what they call a smart

:43:59.:44:04.

meter. That is adding costs. The Scottish Government have said a

:44:05.:44:10.

third of the rise is due to government schemes -- ScottishPower

:44:11.:44:14.

have said. It can be tricky to work out what it means to you. Can you

:44:15.:44:19.

give us an update of what it might mean in terms of pounds in the

:44:20.:44:31.

pocket? The problem is it is all about averages. Npower says about

:44:32.:44:37.

?109 a year on top of what you pay now. ScottishPower says about 80 odd

:44:38.:44:42.

pounds on top of what you pay now. But that is a typical person who

:44:43.:44:49.

takes gas and electricity and uses an average amount. Because

:44:50.:44:53.

electricity is going up more than gas, if you just use electricity,

:44:54.:44:56.

then your average prices will go up a lot more. And if you are a small

:44:57.:45:03.

user, although the pound's rise will be less, the percentage rise will

:45:04.:45:08.

actually be more with some of these rises. So it is complicated but they

:45:09.:45:11.

are going up basically. British Gas is frozen. SSE and E.On are also

:45:12.:45:19.

frozen for now. That may end in March. British Gas says it will end

:45:20.:45:25.

in August. And what about those on prepayment meters? They often get

:45:26.:45:29.

the worst deal? They do but Ofgem the regulator says they are paying

:45:30.:45:32.

pretty much the same as everyone else. It means lower bills for

:45:33.:45:39.

people prepaid gas users but for electricity users only they could

:45:40.:45:42.

actually see a slight rise because the cap has been fixed a bit above

:45:43.:45:46.

what many are paying now. At least it will protect them in future. It

:45:47.:45:52.

is an interesting development that the prepay meters, the price will be

:45:53.:45:56.

capped and it will change every few months. The cap will be there for

:45:57.:46:01.

2020. I think prepayment people are getting a fairer deal than they used

:46:02.:46:07.

to. Thank you, that is Paul Lillis from Moneybox on Radio 4 at midday

:46:08.:46:16.

today. -- that is Paul Lewis. Now Matt has got the weather.

:46:17.:46:23.

Hello. Even though the temperatures are not unusually low, the

:46:24.:46:30.

wind-chill will affect things. This was a scene taken earlier by one of

:46:31.:46:35.

our Weather Watchers. A familiar shop for many with a dusting of snow

:46:36.:46:45.

here and there. The sum it is greying damp but others have a sunny

:46:46.:46:59.

day -- for some it is grey and damp. In Scotland you will have to get on

:47:00.:47:02.

to the hills to see the snow falling. Further south are some

:47:03.:47:11.

coatings of snow. In the west it will turn to rain and drizzle.

:47:12.:47:17.

Inland the temperatures are starting to rise. Snow will continue over the

:47:18.:47:21.

higher ground for many. For most it will be patchy rain and drizzle. The

:47:22.:47:33.

wind is picking up. The winds will knock the temperatures right down. A

:47:34.:47:40.

cold day in store. A chilly night come tonight. Frost in the far north

:47:41.:47:47.

of Scotland. Most will see generally cloudy conditions. A little bit icy.

:47:48.:47:52.

Patchy rain and drizzle continues. Particularly for England and whales.

:47:53.:48:01.

Temperatures just above freezing. -- for England and Wales. The brightest

:48:02.:48:06.

conditions in northern Scotland and Northern Ireland. Maybe bright

:48:07.:48:12.

across southern counties of England and Wales. Snow over the higher

:48:13.:48:20.

ground. Nothing hugely significant and an added wind-chill your day. If

:48:21.:48:25.

you are cranking the heating up this weekend you may be able to step back

:48:26.:48:30.

next week because there will be some sunshine back in the country on

:48:31.:48:34.

Monday and Tuesday. Temperatures climbing back into double figures

:48:35.:48:37.

and heading higher still as we go into Wednesday.

:48:38.:48:43.

Can I ask, I am distracted by your tie, what is on it? It is flowers.

:48:44.:48:55.

When you say distracted... I am not criticising it! That is a nice Thai!

:48:56.:48:59.

He is smiling but he is offended! We have all found good reasons to

:49:00.:49:15.

take a trip to our local park but it can be difficult. Council budgets

:49:16.:49:18.

and pressures to find land for housing means parks are facing a

:49:19.:49:23.

period of decline. MPs say there needs to be a fundamental change to

:49:24.:49:26.

the way they are managed. What have parks ever done for us? We

:49:27.:49:42.

have taken up tennis. It feels wild even though we are in the centre of

:49:43.:49:49.

London. Disclosed to our house. It is somewhere to take the children.

:49:50.:49:55.

There is a cafe over there. The crucial question surrounds their

:49:56.:50:00.

value and the cost. For the past six months, a committee of MPs has been

:50:01.:50:03.

asking the question and listening to the answers. It found with council

:50:04.:50:08.

budgets so tight, many local parks are at a tipping point. What of

:50:09.:50:13.

their viability, what of the future? How can they be saved?

:50:14.:50:21.

Instead of regarding parks is only a leisure and recreation area

:50:22.:50:24.

of service, we should be thinking about parks as the contributors to

:50:25.:50:27.

public health and to environmental policy and to community cohesion.

:50:28.:50:29.

And maybe they can be re-prioritised.

:50:30.:50:35.

But there is a fundamental problem about the level of cuts that local

:50:36.:50:39.

We started to do some work and eventually created

:50:40.:50:42.

We have planted 60,000 trees to encourage flora and fauna.

:50:43.:50:48.

The innovation started here on the edge of the Pennines,

:50:49.:50:50.

It's vital for the community to have this sort of open space.

:50:51.:50:57.

If it's looked after and maintained, it's for their benefit.

:50:58.:51:00.

As well as the nature reserve there is a community garden

:51:01.:51:03.

It is the result of partnerships between the council,

:51:04.:51:07.

the charity Groundwork and local volunteers.

:51:08.:51:10.

A model example of how public green spaces can

:51:11.:51:13.

It was a redundant piece of land, fly tipping and things like that,

:51:14.:51:21.

from that, we were able to create this community garden and help out

:51:22.:51:24.

with adding some elements to the sports pitch.

:51:25.:51:31.

It helped the group service the community a lot more,

:51:32.:51:37.

and more and more people could get involved with that.

:51:38.:51:39.

Long-term it is a cost saving to the council,

:51:40.:51:42.

but the councils have to be responsible

:51:43.:51:43.

The MPs are calling on the government and local

:51:44.:51:52.

authorities to ensure they have strategic plans in place

:51:53.:51:54.

for these emeralds, these green jewels in the crown.

:51:55.:51:56.

They believe parks must remain publicly owned,

:51:57.:51:58.

From flood management to healthy living to biodiversity of wildlife,

:51:59.:52:05.

our parks and green spaces can be the lungs and the heart

:52:06.:52:10.

Watching that with us here, Helen Griffiths is the chief executive of

:52:11.:52:31.

a charity which seeks to preserve open spaces and a member of

:52:32.:52:36.

residents group. People really care about their open spaces. Marina,

:52:37.:52:40.

your group which you set up, because you are in a place where there

:52:41.:52:45.

wasn't much outdoor space and as you explain it to us, maybe we can see

:52:46.:52:49.

the before and after shots which will really illustrate it. Tell us

:52:50.:52:55.

what you had. This is the before shot. It was a disused landlocked

:52:56.:53:01.

council garage site. The houses back all round it. A few houses back onto

:53:02.:53:05.

it and they have gates onto the site now. Residents got together and

:53:06.:53:10.

thought there has to be something we can do with this. It was just being

:53:11.:53:17.

used for fly-tipping and kids congregating. We came up with some

:53:18.:53:21.

ideas and started raising some funding and put things in place. Now

:53:22.:53:27.

it is a well used site for all ages. We have a new group coming from a

:53:28.:53:32.

nursery, from three-year-old up to eight-year-olds. You have vegetable

:53:33.:53:39.

plots as well. We do vegetables, fruit trees, flowers. There are

:53:40.:53:43.

seating areas and a barbecue on site. It is just a well used site.

:53:44.:53:52.

That is really transformed. It must have taken a lot of dedication? We

:53:53.:53:55.

are all really passionate and proud of what we have achieved. We have

:53:56.:53:58.

had school groups who have come on site and done things and then they

:53:59.:54:03.

have gone and done things on their own sites in schools. The Cubs,

:54:04.:54:10.

scouts, everyone uses it. Everyone is saying it is extraordinary. But

:54:11.:54:18.

Nina, the bad parts of the story, reading the figures, some park

:54:19.:54:24.

management funds are being cut up to 97%? Absolutely. The story bit

:54:25.:54:28.

marina told about the fantastic transformation of the site and the

:54:29.:54:32.

way it plays into the community, it is one of the most universal public

:54:33.:54:37.

services to have access to green space from cradle to grave.

:54:38.:54:43.

Unfortunately, local authorities are suffering a terribly challenging

:54:44.:54:47.

time in being able to continue to maintain those spaces, because of

:54:48.:54:51.

the levels of cuts they have experienced over the past few years.

:54:52.:54:57.

And unfortunately, the cuts which are projected to continue. A report

:54:58.:55:00.

says parks are at a tipping point and they really are. Is there

:55:01.:55:07.

anything that can be done which does not involve money? Are there other

:55:08.:55:14.

ways communities can help? There are range of solutions. The

:55:15.:55:17.

recommendation from the report are really welcomed. We are starting to

:55:18.:55:22.

understand the value of our parks. This should go beyond the cost of

:55:23.:55:25.

cutting the grass. We should consider the impacts on all the

:55:26.:55:30.

health and social agendas they can help us to achieve in tackling

:55:31.:55:34.

obesity, anti-social behaviour. I think there is a lot of work to do

:55:35.:55:38.

to revalue and protect those spaces which is the work my organisation

:55:39.:55:43.

has done for along time, to safeguard for future generations

:55:44.:55:47.

access to green spaces. Once they have been developed they are never

:55:48.:55:51.

coming back into recreational use. In terms of funding, I do think and

:55:52.:55:56.

as the report recommends, we are going to need innovative solutions,

:55:57.:56:00.

which will involve community groups like Marina Pospelova and involved

:56:01.:56:04.

and taking some sort of ownership over the site to help with

:56:05.:56:10.

contributing to the ongoing maintenance of that. That low and

:56:11.:56:15.

was council loans so when you first put the idea that there was -- that

:56:16.:56:27.

land was council owned. First we approached the residents to make

:56:28.:56:30.

sure they were OK with the idea and then we went to our council office.

:56:31.:56:37.

They put ?15,000 into it. I applied for lottery funding and after the

:56:38.:56:47.

site was built we approached the local school because we knew the

:56:48.:56:50.

schoolchildren would come on site and they funded us for the big poly-

:56:51.:56:56.

tunnel we now have. It has really helped the children in the area. It

:56:57.:57:02.

can help with other areas of your life, obesity and things like that,

:57:03.:57:06.

have you seen it has made a difference in the community? I have

:57:07.:57:11.

found it has brought the community spirit back which was lacking in the

:57:12.:57:15.

area. More of the elderly will come out. They will fit on the benches,

:57:16.:57:20.

chat and go, that five minutes of being in the fresh air rather than

:57:21.:57:24.

looking at four walls has changed things. We have seen the pictures,

:57:25.:57:32.

it is a complete transformation from what was a derelict area. If your

:57:33.:57:36.

local park is a bit rubbish, people say it is looking rundown, if people

:57:37.:57:41.

go to their local authority and they say they haven't got any money, what

:57:42.:57:47.

happens next? I think it is a really difficult challenge. One of the

:57:48.:57:51.

challenges in having the parks in the state of decline in demise is it

:57:52.:57:56.

threatens the future so much more. If a space is not being well used by

:57:57.:58:01.

the community, the likelihood of being redeveloped for other

:58:02.:58:05.

purposes, it becomes much more likely. I think finding ways for us

:58:06.:58:10.

to collectively address the issue, and that is the approach we need to

:58:11.:58:15.

take, because parks do play such a role in all those different areas.

:58:16.:58:19.

We need to not be looking solely at the Parc's maintenance budget when

:58:20.:58:23.

we look at how parks are funded and how they contributed. We have been

:58:24.:58:29.

asking people to send in their park pictures so let's have a look at

:58:30.:58:36.

some which were sent in. This caught our eye, a beautiful sunrise. It was

:58:37.:58:44.

snapped by Vince. This is Django the springer spaniel doing what he does

:58:45.:58:53.

best! This park is in London. It is funny, sometimes the parks in big

:58:54.:58:58.

cities can be the best maintained in some circumstances. 61% of park

:58:59.:59:10.

users are in urban areas. This is Woodford Park in Berkshire, it is

:59:11.:59:13.

the same picture again, where is this one from Rita? This one is used

:59:14.:59:24.

for sports. It is not just sitting around, they are used for practical

:59:25.:59:36.

uses as well. And this is in Preston. Ben is heading to his 99th

:59:37.:59:43.

park run. That makes a difference as well. Absolutely. We want to come

:59:44.:59:52.

for a visit to your park now! You are welcome any time!

:59:53.:59:54.

You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.

:59:55.:59:56.

Hello, this is Breakfast, with Charlie Stayt and Steph McGovern.

:59:57.:00:27.

The latest weapon in the war against hackers -

:00:28.:00:29.

the Government funds lessons in cyber security for teenagers.

:00:30.:00:32.

It's hoped they'll become the experts of the future

:00:33.:00:34.

and protect Britain from online attacks.

:00:35.:00:53.

Good morning it's Saturday, 11th February.

:00:54.:00:54.

President Trump says he may issue a new order authorising a travel ban

:00:55.:00:57.

after his old one was blocked by the courts.

:00:58.:01:02.

Parks under threat - a new report says funding has

:01:03.:01:04.

reached a tipping point and new ways of paying for them need to be found.

:01:05.:01:10.

The latest on the battle to save hundreds of whales stranded

:01:11.:01:13.

And in sport - it's one of the biggest tests yet,

:01:14.:01:18.

It's a first trip to Cardiff, for their coach Eddie Jones,

:01:19.:01:21.

and Wales are banking on home advantage to take them

:01:22.:01:24.

Good morning, a cold feeling day out there for all of us today.

:01:25.:01:33.

For some a little bit of snow to begin with, giving a coating

:01:34.:01:36.

in places but for many some of that snow will turn back to rain,

:01:37.:01:39.

all the details coming up in 15 minutes.

:01:40.:01:41.

The government is to fund lessons in cyber security to encourage

:01:42.:01:47.

teenagers to pursue a career in defending Britain

:01:48.:01:49.

It's hoped that thousands of pupils in England will spend up to four

:01:50.:01:53.

hours a week on the subject, over the next five years.

:01:54.:01:56.

Here's our home affairs Correspondent Tom Symonds.

:01:57.:02:02.

Daniel Kelly's a convicted teenage hacker, facing a jail sentence.

:02:03.:02:05.

In 2015, he took part in the massive digital break-in

:02:06.:02:07.

But what if his potential had been harnessed at an earlier age?

:02:08.:02:14.

He might have ended up joining a new breed of apprentices learning

:02:15.:02:22.

the cyber security trade like these at BT's headquarters.

:02:23.:02:24.

With that in mind, the government is putting up ?20 million,

:02:25.:02:27.

for nearly 6000 schoolchildren aged 14 and above to take four hours

:02:28.:02:30.

of cyber security lessons after school each week.

:02:31.:02:37.

We think that will help seriously with this shortage

:02:38.:02:39.

Now, of course, will always keep it under review,

:02:40.:02:43.

in case this needs to get bigger, but getting it going on that scale,

:02:44.:02:46.

I think shows serious ambition to make sure that we can

:02:47.:02:49.

have the pipeline of talent that we will need in the years ahead.

:02:50.:02:52.

While the police are stepping up the fight, this is not a threat

:02:53.:02:55.

which can be defeated on the ground by raiding the hackers.

:02:56.:02:58.

The cyber crime battlefield will be online and Britain's GCHQ

:02:59.:03:00.

58,000 people are now employed in the growing anti-hacking industry.

:03:01.:03:14.

But more will be needed and the government knows

:03:15.:03:16.

it has to start finding them when they are young.

:03:17.:03:26.

Donald Trump has said he may rewrite the presidential order imposing

:03:27.:03:29.

restrictions on travel to the US to overcome the legal obstacles that

:03:30.:03:32.

His first order - stopping travel from seven mainly-Muslim countries -

:03:33.:03:36.

Our Washington correspondent, David Willis, has more.

:03:37.:03:48.

After a federal appeals court backed a stay of his executive order,

:03:49.:03:51.

Donald Trump vowed he would see his opponents in court.

:03:52.:03:53.

Speaking on Air Force One, en route to his weekend retreat in Florida,

:03:54.:04:00.

the President revealed he was actively weighing

:04:01.:04:02.

But we also have a lot of other options, including just filing

:04:03.:04:07.

We need speed, for reasons of security, so it could very

:04:08.:04:19.

Unveiled at the end of a frantic first week in office,

:04:20.:04:23.

the original order suspended America's refugee programme

:04:24.:04:25.

and banned travellers from seven majority Muslim nations

:04:26.:04:27.

It caused chaos at airports and sparked protests

:04:28.:04:33.

Quite how the White House might rewrite the order isn't clear,

:04:34.:04:37.

although lawyers would almost certainly have to address the claim

:04:38.:04:43.

that in its existing form, the order is unconstitutional,

:04:44.:04:46.

in that it blocks entry to the United States

:04:47.:04:49.

Mr Trump has continued to insist that tough immigration

:04:50.:04:52.

measures are crucial to America's national security.

:04:53.:04:54.

The funding of parks has reached a tipping point and new ways

:04:55.:05:02.

of paying for them may have to be found.

:05:03.:05:04.

That's according to the Commons Communities

:05:05.:05:06.

and Local Government Committee which says parks are suffering

:05:07.:05:08.

It warns there's a danger of a return to the neglect of the 1980s.

:05:09.:05:14.

It warns there's a danger of a return to the neglect of the 1980s.

:05:15.:05:19.

Instead of kind of regarding parks as a kind of only a leisure

:05:20.:05:22.

and recreation area of service, we should be thinking about parks

:05:23.:05:25.

as big contributors to public health, and to environmental policy

:05:26.:05:27.

and to community cohesion, and maybe they can be reprioritised.

:05:28.:05:33.

But there is fundamentally a problem about the level of cuts that local

:05:34.:05:37.

authorities have been experiencing, the distribution of the cuts

:05:38.:05:38.

across the country and the very, very difficult decisions that many

:05:39.:05:41.

local authorities are having to make.

:05:42.:05:48.

Labour has issued formal warnings to members of its front-bench team

:05:49.:05:51.

who disobeyed Jeremy Corbyn's order to vote for Brexit.

:05:52.:05:53.

Among those who ignored Mr Corbyn were eleven shadow junior ministers

:05:54.:05:57.

A 16-year-old boy has died after he was stabbed

:05:58.:06:05.

The wounded teenager was taken from the Harehills area

:06:06.:06:08.

to hospital for treatment, but died a short time later.

:06:09.:06:11.

A 15-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

:06:12.:06:17.

The decision to end a scheme to let unaccompanied refugee children

:06:18.:06:19.

into the UK is shameful according to the Scottish First

:06:20.:06:22.

She's urged the Prime Minister to change her mind saying

:06:23.:06:25.

there is a moral duty to help those in need.

:06:26.:06:28.

The scheme's due to end in March with 350 children being admitted far

:06:29.:06:31.

fewer than some campaigners had hoped for.

:06:32.:06:41.

Volunteers have told Breakfast in the past few hours than 200 more

:06:42.:06:44.

whales have become stranded on a beach in New Zealand.

:06:45.:06:46.

Hundreds more have already died in one of the biggest ever mass

:06:47.:06:49.

It's hoped the pilot whales may be able to swim to safety

:06:50.:06:53.

Just to warn you, you might find some of the scenes in this report

:06:54.:06:58.

As they wait for high tide, volunteers do whatever

:06:59.:07:10.

Pouring water and covering the creatures in cloths helps

:07:11.:07:13.

Temporary measures until the whales can be released into the ocean.

:07:14.:07:22.

Some hope singing will prove soothing.

:07:23.:07:26.

Very quickly, this tide has come racing in, and now we're

:07:27.:07:38.

Some people are up to their waists in water, and we are starting

:07:39.:07:43.

to get a bit of floating, and we're helping assist the whales

:07:44.:07:46.

with their breathing until the water gets deep enough they can swim.

:07:47.:07:48.

It's a devastating image, one of the worst whale strandings

:07:49.:07:51.

It's unclear what brings them en masse onto the beech.

:07:52.:07:55.

Some believe they may be sick or injured, or have

:07:56.:07:57.

Another theory is tht when a single whale is beached it sends

:07:58.:08:01.

out a distress signal, attracting other members of the pod.

:08:02.:08:04.

Once ashore, it is hard to get them back in to the ocean.

:08:05.:08:07.

We worked hard and got those 100 whales off that had survived

:08:08.:08:14.

overnight and we have lost sight of them, but the bad part

:08:15.:08:18.

of the story is a separate pod of 240 whales have come

:08:19.:08:20.

So we have been fighting to keep those ones happy,

:08:21.:09:15.

Hundreds of people from across the world have been competing this

:09:16.:09:17.

week in a sport that combines dancing and flying - indoors.

:09:18.:09:20.

You can compete in pairs, fours or as a solo contestant.

:09:21.:09:24.

You get marks for speed and accuracy.

:09:25.:09:25.

Matt will give us the weekend weather later.

:09:26.:09:30.

The Iraq Historic Allegations Team, which has been investigating claims

:09:31.:09:32.

of abuse by British forces against Iraqi civilians,

:09:33.:09:34.

will be shut down after MPs called the operation an "unmitigated

:09:35.:09:37.

A report yesterday blamed the Ministry of Defence

:09:38.:09:40.

for empowering law firms to bring cases on "an industrial scale", many

:09:41.:09:43.

Earlier Mark Lancaster told us the Government did the right thing in

:09:44.:09:58.

scrapping the unit. IHAT was set up for the right

:09:59.:10:03.

reasons so that our service personnel wouldn't have to go to the

:10:04.:10:06.

international criminal court, but unfortunately in the process, it was

:10:07.:10:09.

abused and that is why the Government took the action it did.

:10:10.:10:17.

We also spoke to Brian Wood who was falsely accused of war crimes in

:10:18.:10:22.

Iraq. I was a young commander at 23 years old, thinking that what I did

:10:23.:10:25.

on the ground was the right thing to do, and the right decisions that I

:10:26.:10:29.

had made. It wasn't perfect but the guys on the ground with me and I, we

:10:30.:10:38.

survived. To get home and to then find out about these allegations, it

:10:39.:10:42.

Joining us now from our London newsroom is John Cooper,

:10:43.:10:45.

a human rights lawyer who has defended armed forces

:10:46.:10:47.

Thank you for your time, it is interesting hearing Brian Wood, one

:10:48.:10:56.

of those accused. What are your thoughts when you hear him talking

:10:57.:11:01.

about the ordeal that he and his colleagues, those who fought, went

:11:02.:11:05.

through. As one who has represented members of the Armed Forces and

:11:06.:11:10.

bereaved members of the armed force, have nothing but sympathy for his

:11:11.:11:14.

experience, it is a very important principle in our democratic country

:11:15.:11:18.

that the same law that applies to civilians must apply to all people.

:11:19.:11:21.

That takes into account an must take into account the stresses of war but

:11:22.:11:26.

that doesn't mean that people don't have the same basic

:11:27.:11:28.

responsibilities. So, as it stands now, do you then have a concern,

:11:29.:11:35.

because of this sequence of events, and Phil Shiner in particular, the

:11:36.:11:39.

attention to what he was doing, how he was going about his business, are

:11:40.:11:43.

you concerned now, that legitimate cases won't get the attention they

:11:44.:11:49.

need? Let me make this clear, I am not here as an apologist for Phil

:11:50.:11:53.

Shiner. The conduct he committed is rightly being kit sighed. Neither am

:11:54.:11:58.

I here as an apologist for the IHAT debacle which I will agree it was,

:11:59.:12:03.

but the point you made is right at the top of this issue, there is

:12:04.:12:08.

still accountability, there must be proper investigation, and the

:12:09.:12:13.

concern is that there won't be. I hope that when allegation are

:12:14.:12:15.

brought against any individual, particularly in this field, they are

:12:16.:12:18.

completely exonerated. But confidence and the perception of

:12:19.:12:23.

justice for all, civilian in this country and the law applying to the

:12:24.:12:26.

same to military personnel means there should be proper

:12:27.:12:28.

investigation, my concern goes this way, that now we are going to have

:12:29.:12:34.

the military invest spating the military, -- investigating. This has

:12:35.:12:40.

been outlawed as crimes in this country are concerns or allegations,

:12:41.:12:43.

but if there are allegation when people have lost their lives in

:12:44.:12:47.

military premises the civilian police have precedence, to ensure

:12:48.:12:51.

that there is independence, what we won't have here is an independent

:12:52.:12:56.

body, IHAT was a disaster, misconceived on many fronts but

:12:57.:13:00.

there is a vacuum and that causes concern for any right minded

:13:01.:13:02.

individual, including members of the Armed Forces. So what do you see as

:13:03.:13:08.

the middle ground then, that can stop the accusation, of not being

:13:09.:13:15.

not enough being done to investigate legitimate claims but at the same

:13:16.:13:16.

time protecting those who shouldn't be investigated? Those are two

:13:17.:13:20.

counter balancing principles which the police day in, day out have to

:13:21.:13:25.

consider the civilian police, in my opinion, the civilian police should

:13:26.:13:28.

have a precedence and conduct of these investigations, now I hear the

:13:29.:13:32.

argument it is difficult to investigate potential crimes that

:13:33.:13:42.

have committed overseas but police officers in this country, skilled

:13:43.:13:42.

police officerings, are doing that day in, day out in fraud

:13:43.:13:43.

investigation, when it comes to investigations overseas involving a

:13:44.:13:48.

death and fatality, we only have to look at the Madeleine McCann

:13:49.:13:52.

incident. We have a track record of police being able to investigate

:13:53.:13:54.

overseas, that is not a problem. So the direct answer to your question

:13:55.:13:58.

is the civilian police should investigate proper allegations, I

:13:59.:14:02.

don't know whether these allegations, the 1500 that remain

:14:03.:14:06.

have credence, what I will say is this, we are already being told the

:14:07.:14:11.

military police will whittle the remaining cases down to about 20.

:14:12.:14:16.

How are they going to do this? It is a rather swift announcement to make,

:14:17.:14:20.

one would hope they have come to that conclusion after carefully

:14:21.:14:23.

considering the 1500, and if they have, and they have whittle it it

:14:24.:14:26.

down to 20, I am please for the members of the Armed Forces and

:14:27.:14:30.

their families but in whittling down 1500 to 20, so quickly, does give me

:14:31.:14:35.

cause for concern as to how deep their inquiry has gone. It is

:14:36.:14:40.

interesting you are talking about the alarm bells and the idea of the

:14:41.:14:42.

military investigating the military. In the same breath and we asked this

:14:43.:14:50.

of Mark Lancaster earlier on, the sign, was enough attention paid to

:14:51.:14:56.

what Phil Shiner was doing? Were through rumours in your profession?

:14:57.:15:00.

It must be a fairly tight Knight group of people, were there rumour,

:15:01.:15:04.

did no-one call it up soon enough as to what was going on? As far as we

:15:05.:15:11.

are concerned no, certainly not. We are all independent practitioners,

:15:12.:15:15.

certainly the bar and the solicitor works within their own firm, there

:15:16.:15:19.

was no concern whatsoever. When they were raised and brought before his

:15:20.:15:23.

own professional tribunal, they properly dell with the matter and

:15:24.:15:28.

all professional tribunals in the law, be it is the bar, Council for

:15:29.:15:33.

barristers or the bar standards board for barristers or the

:15:34.:15:39.

solicitor's regulatory authority, they give no favour, once it was

:15:40.:15:43.

brought to their attention firm steps were taken, and, but I nit is

:15:44.:15:47.

very important, to emphasise again here and now, that was one

:15:48.:15:55.

individual, there many hundreds of human rights lawyers practise, often

:15:56.:15:58.

doing work for no payment whatsoever, and human rights lawyers

:15:59.:16:01.

aren't just involved with military work, they are involved with making

:16:02.:16:05.

sure elderly people have proper homes to go to, we have proper

:16:06.:16:08.

education, freedom of speech, we have rights to fair trial, let us

:16:09.:16:13.

not throw the baby out with the bath water on the human rights' lawyers

:16:14.:16:18.

prospective. One potential bad apple doesn't change that. One bad

:16:19.:16:22.

journalist doesn't make the whole cad rein any way poor. Let us get

:16:23.:16:28.

perspective here. Thank you very much for your time.

:16:29.:16:31.

Here's Matt, with a look at this morning's weather.

:16:32.:16:42.

A bit wintry. A typical scene, a slight dusting of snow, not causing

:16:43.:16:52.

huge problems. It makes for a few slippery roads an pavement, most of

:16:53.:16:56.

the snow will turn back to rain. I have managed to locate a bit of

:16:57.:16:59.

sunshine from our weather watchers here in Northern Ireland, just a

:17:00.:17:03.

short while ago, cracking but frosty start and in western Scotland, got

:17:04.:17:07.

down to minus 10 in parts of the Highlands but the exception rather

:17:08.:17:11.

than the rule. Most grey starts, raw in the wind, patchy rain and drizzle

:17:12.:17:16.

east in Scotland and eastern England to the north, on the hills we are

:17:17.:17:21.

seeing sleet and snow. It is sleet and snow in wail, the Midlands and

:17:22.:17:25.

the far south-east. It will come and do. It will turn back to rain and

:17:26.:17:30.

sleet and it will feel particularly raw because of the wind. The wind

:17:31.:17:35.

strengthens through the day, parts of south-east Scotland, northern

:17:36.:17:38.

England could get close to gale force and blowy in western Wales, it

:17:39.:17:42.

will continue to feed in patchy rain drizzle and a bit of sleet in the

:17:43.:17:49.

afternoon, the driegtest -- driest bigoter weather is in eastern

:17:50.:17:52.

Scotland. A few lair required if you are outdoors and that will be the

:17:53.:17:56.

case if you are off to watch the rugby in Cardiff between Wales and

:17:57.:18:01.

England. Not too much trouble on the roads and through the night it will

:18:02.:18:06.

be mainly rain or drizzle for many. There will be sleet and snow in

:18:07.:18:09.

places overnight. Giving a dusting of snow, more especially to the

:18:10.:18:12.

hills. Temperatures above freezing, a few breaks in the west and to

:18:13.:18:17.

northern Scotland and Northern Ireland. But as for Sunday, it is a

:18:18.:18:21.

great cloud that will dominate once more, and further rain or drizzle at

:18:22.:18:26.

times. Mainly this stretch from East Anglia, Wales, through into northern

:18:27.:18:31.

England and Scotland. Snow over the hiring ground, far north of

:18:32.:18:34.

Scotland, Northern Ireland, a bit of sunshine, not as much as today. It

:18:35.:18:39.

is here where we will see the best of any of the brightness as we go

:18:40.:18:43.

into Monday, across southern areas but notice over the necks few days

:18:44.:18:47.

the temperature trend is an upward one, if you a not enjoying the chill

:18:48.:18:52.

in the air, bear with it, things will turn milder necks week and feel

:18:53.:18:57.

more spring like. Is that new graph Matt? We have used it a few time,

:18:58.:19:04.

you change it according to the situation. You haven't been paying

:19:05.:19:05.

attention! Volunteers have told Breakfast

:19:06.:19:19.

in the past few hours than 200 more whales have become stranded

:19:20.:19:22.

on a beach in New Zealand. Hundreds more have already died

:19:23.:19:24.

in one of the biggest ever mass It's hoped the pilot whales may be

:19:25.:19:27.

able to swim to safety Just to warn you, you might find

:19:28.:19:31.

some of the scenes in this report You are right, we worked hard and

:19:32.:19:48.

got the 100 Wales off that survived overnight, and, we have lost sight

:19:49.:19:53.

of them, but the bad part of the story is a separate pod of 240

:19:54.:19:59.

whales have come on and restranded just south of that, so, we have been

:20:00.:20:03.

fighting to keep those ones happy, but yes, it is pretty grim out here.

:20:04.:20:08.

So what, overnight you said that many of the whales had died, they

:20:09.:20:15.

had just not survived. No, overnight most of them survived but what has

:20:16.:20:21.

happened and those ones got refloated and rebelieve successful.

:20:22.:20:28.

Another pod of pilot whales, 240 at last count have stranded further

:20:29.:20:31.

south where we were doing our work. People have been trying to care for

:20:32.:20:38.

them all afternoon. So you say the tide is coming in, and now, in

:20:39.:20:43.

theory does that mean this is a possible time they may be able to

:20:44.:20:47.

work themselves free again? Yes, that is possible. It's not something

:20:48.:20:52.

that usually happens, and, we could have kept people out there a bit

:20:53.:20:57.

longer but we have had a few people who got hypothermic and we have

:20:58.:21:01.

large schools of stingrays coming in, so it is too dangerous to leave

:21:02.:21:07.

people out there. Now, there is a lot of speculation about why it is

:21:08.:21:10.

that more of the whales are there than usual, this is I think the

:21:11.:21:13.

biggest stranding there has been in living memory in New Zealand. Are

:21:14.:21:17.

you any clearer about why so many are at that particular place at that

:21:18.:21:23.

time. Yes, well, there is always a lot of marine mammal activity round

:21:24.:21:29.

this area, and there are a lot of these pilot whales, in the Southern

:21:30.:21:35.

Ocean this is a class sieve stranding spot, a beautiful

:21:36.:21:41.

location, but if you a whale it is lethal. There is a big swathe of

:21:42.:21:47.

sand, and the water is very shallow for a long way, and so as the whales

:21:48.:21:51.

come in, they get disorientated and trapped and it is all down hill from

:21:52.:21:55.

there. So looking ahead now, Andrew, it is going to be dark in a few

:21:56.:22:00.

hours' time. You said the tide is come. What are your hopes for the

:22:01.:22:06.

next few hours, 12 hours or so? My hope for the next few hours is all

:22:07.:22:10.

these people we have taken off the beach manage to get somewhere warm

:22:11.:22:13.

and have a good meal and prepare themselves for another big push

:22:14.:22:18.

tomorrow morning, like I said, it is way too risky to have anything going

:22:19.:22:24.

on from now, so we trying to keep refreshed and go for another push in

:22:25.:22:27.

the morning to work on whatever whales we have left to deal with.

:22:28.:22:34.

That Odyssey Pavilionration is ongoing. We will keep you

:22:35.:22:40.

up-to-date. It is coming up to 23 minutes past nine.

:22:41.:22:41.

Time for a look the newspapers. David Davies, Former Chief Executive

:22:42.:22:56.

of the Football Association is here to tell us what's

:22:57.:22:58.

caught his eye. We will start with Trump. There is

:22:59.:23:03.

stuff going on on Twitter. Hillary Clinton has made a come back. She

:23:04.:23:08.

has. He continues to be everywhere. If you see that picture in the Daily

:23:09.:23:12.

Mirror. Wouldn't you like to be inside his mind? Perhaps you

:23:13.:23:18.

wouldn't, I don't know. But, I think he must have some self-doubt, hear

:23:19.:23:24.

is dear old Hillary Clinton. I suspect President Trump taught he

:23:25.:23:30.

had seen her off but she helping him with a short tweet saying 3-0, that

:23:31.:23:34.

he is losing these battles in the court. Law courts. I just detect

:23:35.:23:41.

this week there's been a subtle difference in Donald Trump. He is at

:23:42.:23:48.

last, he is changing his mind a bit on China, he's being rather nicer to

:23:49.:23:53.

one or two people, the Mexicans of course, are undermining him a bit,

:23:54.:23:58.

why he isn't building the wall yet, they seem to be plotting as to how

:23:59.:24:03.

they will come through and overand under the wall, when it is finally

:24:04.:24:07.

built. So reality is dawning, on even this President. Nonetheless,

:24:08.:24:11.

Air Force One, the latest line is that he pledges that if he can't get

:24:12.:24:17.

that, bill through the courts just have another one. He will have

:24:18.:24:22.

another one, but you know, the reality of this job, he, ultimately,

:24:23.:24:29.

I mean his popularity levels are at are low but it is entirely true that

:24:30.:24:35.

for example on his, the existing policy, that is causing so much

:24:36.:24:39.

controversy in the court, he appears to have a majority. And a

:24:40.:24:45.

majority... That put him in. On the other side, he lost the popular vote

:24:46.:24:53.

substantially. Not but a few Al Gore 100 votes or so, but three, four

:24:54.:24:57.

million I think. So it is a difficult line for him. You are

:24:58.:25:01.

going to talk about back pain. This will mean a lot for a lot of people.

:25:02.:25:06.

It is so prevalent. The Guardian is highlighting what I think is one of

:25:07.:25:14.

the great medical disasters of certainly my life time millions of

:25:15.:25:17.

people suffer from back pain and they get contradictory advice, I

:25:18.:25:21.

declare my interest. I had a back interest some 25 years ago, touch

:25:22.:25:27.

wood, which was a great success but a lot of people struggle, they are

:25:28.:25:31.

told exercise, it doesn't get better, so they go to see somebody

:25:32.:25:35.

else who says rest, rest, rest. And here we have in this, in this story,

:25:36.:25:41.

low back and neck pain is a widespread and expensive condition

:25:42.:25:52.

worldwide, costing the US alone, ?88 billion, $88 billion, despite

:25:53.:25:54.

evidence that most treatments don't work. It it is amazing. How is back

:25:55.:26:04.

right now? Touch wood, OK. It was a great triumph for me, personally, at

:26:05.:26:09.

the time, buzz it was, there was the question I ask is, am I go, is it

:26:10.:26:13.

going to be worse, what are the risks of, what is the percentage

:26:14.:26:17.

risk of something getting worse? I was told many my case it was 15, 20%

:26:18.:26:23.

on this unusual back operation, that I had, and it worked. So, I am very

:26:24.:26:28.

grateful. Pleased to hear about that. Wine tasting now? Is that what

:26:29.:26:34.

we are saying? Experts are out of fashion, and not just experts in

:26:35.:26:39.

politics, after Michael Gove in the election an Brexit. Experts

:26:40.:26:44.

generally. And in a blind test, where the labels were hidden they

:26:45.:26:48.

were asked to identify different red wines by smell, and the predictive

:26:49.:26:54.

powers were found to be no better than those of novices, there were 12

:26:55.:26:58.

professional, 20 novices and there was no difference in the outcome.

:26:59.:27:02.

Isn't that because it is totally subjective though, whether you like

:27:03.:27:07.

wine or not? That is what I think. I am volunteering to be in the next

:27:08.:27:12.

group of novices, in this, I think it is... Smelling not tasting. To be

:27:13.:27:17.

fair it was smelling, but that is meant to be the one or two experts

:27:18.:27:22.

who I have listened to, they tell me they can tell whether it is good or

:27:23.:27:27.

bad from the smell. Just drink it! Give us a quick line on sport, that

:27:28.:27:34.

is your thing. Netball. Controversy in netball buzz the Government is to

:27:35.:27:41.

spend 17 million encouraging women to play netball: A columnist this

:27:42.:27:46.

express says netball, about as friendly and inclusive as the hunger

:27:47.:27:50.

game, I would sooner break rocks with a teaspoon. I love netball.

:27:51.:27:55.

That was one of my favourite sports at school. 165,000 adult women are

:27:56.:28:01.

playing netball, but the rivalry, when we were pushing, in my time,

:28:02.:28:06.

women's football, girls football, you cannot believe how it used to

:28:07.:28:10.

upset some of the other sports, dare I say including netball and hockey.

:28:11.:28:14.

But, I love them all. I think they are great sports. I love netball.

Have you seen that? I saw a team who were going to participate in the

to yourself just about. Let's first of all talk about Eddie Jones

:33:29.:33:33.

playing Tom Jones the Welsh singer and playing Delilah to the England

:33:34.:33:37.

team. You have been talking about all the shenanigans. Is this a sign

:33:38.:33:41.

that Eddie Jones is worried about this one? I don't know. The thing

:33:42.:33:47.

about Eddie Jones is we have to take everything he says with a certain

:33:48.:33:51.

degree of a pinch of salt. What he does is generate interest in not

:33:52.:33:57.

only England but rugby union. It is a Saturday morning and we are not

:33:58.:34:01.

talking about football and that is unusual at this time of year. In

:34:02.:34:05.

terms of the specific shenanigans, I saw a couple of daffodils poking

:34:06.:34:10.

through the snow this morning. No sign of any goats yet. What we do

:34:11.:34:15.

have I'm delighted to say is perhaps the most important thing, the trophy

:34:16.:34:20.

itself. This is a redesigned Six Nations trophy. It is it decided to

:34:21.:34:26.

reflect the Six Nations which came in in 2000. Italy have not yet

:34:27.:34:39.

lifted this and neither have Scotland. Scotland will be in a

:34:40.:34:41.

great position if they win in France tomorrow. That will be Sunday's

:34:42.:34:43.

drama. With a weight of international caps, you have to say

:34:44.:34:46.

the Wales when a very strong position but England, it is such a

:34:47.:34:50.

long time since they lost to anybody as we have heard so many times,

:34:51.:34:56.

winning is a habit. England showed last weekend even though they were

:34:57.:34:59.

not for a good against France they found the composure to win that

:35:00.:35:05.

game. History shows that the roof matters. Given the record the

:35:06.:35:09.

England have with the roof being open, so different to when it is

:35:10.:35:15.

closed? Absolutely. If you are in Eddie Jones' shoes, why would you

:35:16.:35:20.

choose anything else than to have the roof open. There is just a light

:35:21.:35:24.

drizzle falling at the moment. Rugby union is an outdoor sport. This

:35:25.:35:29.

place. Be a cauldron even if you take the roof off. What I love about

:35:30.:35:35.

this stadium which was originally called the Millennium Stadium and is

:35:36.:35:40.

now the Principality Stadium, even though you get 70,000 people in here

:35:41.:35:44.

it feels smaller because the seats are so close to the action. We will

:35:45.:35:48.

have a great feeling here whether the roof is open or not. They're all

:35:49.:35:54.

the back row forwards who have not been to Cardiff before, how they

:35:55.:35:58.

deal with the occasion as well as dealing with Wales. And there is the

:35:59.:36:07.

interim coach who has to decide whether to risk George North and Dan

:36:08.:36:11.

Biggar after the knocks in the last game? We saw them training in the

:36:12.:36:16.

light training session here yesterday. It has been a big talking

:36:17.:36:22.

point. I wonder if it could be another shenanigan mind game from

:36:23.:36:26.

Rob Howley? There is the possibility that neither of those guys will

:36:27.:36:32.

start the game for Wales. Sam Davies could come on and make an impact

:36:33.:36:35.

like he did last weekend against Italy. It is interesting, Rob

:36:36.:36:42.

Howley's position, because he is like the caretaker coach or the

:36:43.:36:47.

supply teacher. Does he do something different to changing into his team

:36:48.:36:51.

or does he hand them back to Warren Gatland and say not too much damage

:36:52.:36:58.

done? I cannot wait for it all to begin! The coverage begins at 4:15pm

it. I genuinely believe... I was with him for a few hours last night.

:38:42.:38:45.

He did not say I am leaving at the end of the season, but I get the

:38:46.:38:49.

impression looking at him, that is it. I think that's it. He actually

:38:50.:38:55.

mentioned while we were talking last night that he is coming to the end.

:38:56.:38:57.

giving you an insight into the life of a minor 200 feet the rock face.

:41:37.:41:49.

Tell me this is not real, that this is a horrible dream?

:41:50.:41:52.

All that supports you are staples hammered into the rock.

:41:53.:42:03.

Of course, you have a harness and two special clips

:42:04.:42:06.

which cannot be unhooked at the same time but your mind

:42:07.:42:08.

I am on a wooden plank 100 feet in the air across an old quarry!

:42:09.:42:13.

What is incredible is when you stop for a moment and look down and look

:42:14.:42:17.

around and realise this is where people worked!

:42:18.:42:19.

Some forced to work here were as young as six years old.

:42:20.:42:24.

When I first came here I learned what the miners

:42:25.:42:26.

We have a great safety system but they just used to wrap chains

:42:27.:42:32.

around their legs and hang on the edge of the wall.

:42:33.:42:34.

It is crazy that they would do that for 12 hours a day

:42:35.:42:37.

Ewell worked on the open mines here until the 1970s

:42:38.:42:41.

but now he is back working as a safety inspector.

:42:42.:42:43.

It has given them a new lease of life.

:42:44.:42:45.

There is a saying that Blaenau Ffestiniog rooved the world

:42:46.:42:51.

so we are very proud of the culture and we have embraced that culture.

:42:52.:43:00.

Once you've had the training it is up to you to get around

:43:01.:43:03.

Slowly but surely you conquer the fears in your head, it starts

:43:04.:43:16.

The sensation when you have achieved it is outstanding.

:43:17.:43:20.

You learn more about yourself than you do looking at your iPhone.

:43:21.:43:22.

The ten and 11-year-old school pupils took it in their stride.

:43:23.:43:26.

Having seen one lad fall off the monkey bars 200 feet up...

:43:27.:43:29.

It was really scary, I thought I would fall.

:43:30.:43:35.

I gave it a miss, heading for the final heart stopping challenge.

:43:36.:43:44.

And they save the steepest zip wire to last.

:43:45.:44:05.

I think the fear does get worse as you get older. I felt like a hobbit

:44:06.:44:21.

in Lord of the rings. The youngsters take it in their stride, even the

:44:22.:44:26.

chap who fell off. He had a harness on.

:44:27.:44:30.

And a really fascinating way to learn about history of the minds.

:44:31.:44:35.

The youngsters were only six and they had a chain which they had to

:44:36.:44:39.

put in the rocks themselves with just a Campbell. They were working

:44:40.:44:45.

in the dark -- just a candle. Amazing. Do you want to give a

:44:46.:44:50.

prediction for the score for England and whales? -- England and Wales.

Now it is time to find out what is happening with the weather. There is

:45:41.:45:41.

a bit of snow around at the moment. Yes, there certainly is for some.

:45:42.:45:56.

This was the view of one of our Weather Watchers in County Durham.

:45:57.:46:01.

There is a centimetre or two on the ground. You will still be able to

:46:02.:46:05.

get around your day without too much hindrance. It is not a completely

:46:06.:46:13.

wintry picture. In the Shetland Isles, as you can see, Sun clear

:46:14.:46:25.

skies. Clouding over in Northern Ireland. The north-west islands

:46:26.:46:31.

continue to see some sunshine. Eastern Scotland have rain and

:46:32.:46:36.

drizzle along the coasts. Some rain and sleet inland. We will see the

:46:37.:46:40.

snow pep up on the hills of northern England. It is sleet, snow and

:46:41.:46:45.

drizzle anywhere across the South. If you are in parts of Sussex and

:46:46.:46:50.

ethics and also Kent, the snow will get heavier in the next hour or two.

flurries of snow this morning, it will turn to sleet or rain and

:47:01.:47:08.

drizzle. The best of the weather across the North of Scotland and the

:47:09.:47:12.

West of Ireland. Temperatures, much of the muchness wherever you are.

:47:13.:47:19.

The wind strengthens through tonight. It will bring more cloud,

:47:20.:47:26.

rain, drizzle, sleet and snow in. A few clearer skies towards parts of

:47:27.:47:30.

Northern Ireland, Devon and Cornwall. If you do see those

:47:31.:47:34.

breaks, there will be a touch of frost. Most Frost free but every bit

:47:35.:47:40.

as cold into tomorrow morning. It will probably feel colder given the

:47:41.:47:44.

winds are stronger. A few brighter Brent to the day -- brighter breaks

:47:45.:47:52.

to the day. What we do see from the cloud is the mix of rain, drizzle,

:47:53.:47:58.

sleet and health snow and temperatures feeling close to

:47:59.:48:03.

freezing rather than for 6 degrees. If it is too cold for you, there is

:48:04.:48:07.

a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Temperatures slowly rise on

:48:08.:48:11.

Monday. Still chilly for Scotland and Ireland. Many of you by the time

:48:12.:48:16.

of it to Wednesday will see temperatures into double figures. It

:48:17.:48:20.

will feel a bit more like spring which is fantastic news for those of

:48:21.:48:25.

you entering a week off for half term. So there is some light at the

:48:26.:48:28.

end of the tunnel. Back to you both. Have a lovely

:48:29.:48:30.

weekend! In the past week, three cyclists

:48:31.:48:36.

have been killed in the space of four days on London's roads,

:48:37.:48:39.

and campaigners are gathering this morning to demand

:48:40.:48:41.

ministers make cycling safer. But figures nationally show that

:48:42.:48:43.

could already be the case, with cycling deaths falling over

:48:44.:48:46.

the past decade. Our reporter Holly Hamilton has more

:48:47.:48:48.

on this, she's in Trafalgar Square Morning, Holly. Good morning. It

:48:49.:48:59.

does seem that more people than ever are taking to the roads on two

:49:00.:49:04.

wheels. In the past two decades, the number of cyclists has gone up by

:49:05.:49:08.

more than a quarter. There have been plenty of road safety initiatives

:49:09.:49:11.

that have been put in place by the government, and it does seem to be

:49:12.:49:15.

working. In the past ten years, the number of road deaths has been going

:49:16.:49:21.

down. Sadly, three deaths in one week in London has prompted a

:49:22.:49:33.

protest here in Trafalgar Square later this afternoon. One of those

:49:34.:49:38.

taking part joins me now. You are quite an experienced cyclist.

:49:39.:49:46.

You cycle with baby Owen. What is it like? I cycle in London every day.

:49:47.:49:57.

We do not have a car so this is my car equivalent. I have three

:49:58.:50:01.

children and we go everywhere by bike because I find it the most

:50:02.:50:05.

quickest and convenient. My husband and I work long hours and it is the

:50:06.:50:11.

only way we can get from a to B and get the children to school and

:50:12.:50:18.

nursery. My overwhelming experience is positive. Especially with a bike

:50:19.:50:22.

like this. I get a lot of positive feedback from people. But a lot of

:50:23.:50:27.

people stop me to say they think it is great but they feel too scared to

:50:28.:50:34.

cycle. Ultimately, that is what we have to work on. It is tragic that

:50:35.:50:39.

we have had deaths this week. It is great that the death rate overall is

:50:40.:50:44.

improving but until people feel safe, which I'm afraid most people

:50:45.:50:48.

would not feel safe cycling alongside a bus or an HGV with a

:50:49.:50:53.

baby, and I totally sympathise with those people and I can see why. We

:50:54.:50:59.

need to be concentrating on separating bicycles from HGVs and

:51:00.:51:04.

buses and keeping them separate. What are you hoping to achieve from

:51:05.:51:08.

this protest which you will be attending this afternoon? We are

:51:09.:51:12.

asking for what I think is a pretty modest request which is 10% of the

:51:13.:51:18.

transport budget for 2020 to be allocated to protected cycling and

:51:19.:51:21.

walking infrastructure. Given that most of us will walk or cycle at

:51:22.:51:25.

some point in our lives feels like not throw much to ask for but it

:51:26.:51:29.

feels very far-off from what we have at the moment. The UN is calling for

:51:30.:51:39.

20% by 2025. We have thousands of people dying from air pollution

:51:40.:51:44.

related to diseases and inactivity, type two diabetes and heart disease.

:51:45.:51:49.

I am actually a doctor is well. So we cannot afford not to have people

:51:50.:51:53.

walking and cycling really, but we have to make it safer and more

:51:54.:51:58.

pleasant for them to do. I think a lot of campaigners this afternoon

:51:59.:52:02.

will agree with you. One of the things you mentioned is that HGVs

:52:03.:52:07.

are an issue for you. We are joined by Rod McKenzie fund the Road

:52:08.:52:12.

haulage Association. One of those who died this week, it was an HGV

:52:13.:52:16.

that was involved, how serious is this issue? We do not know the

:52:17.:52:22.

circumstances and one road death is one too many. We are committed to

:52:23.:52:29.

road safety. An HGV driver's training is all about safety,

:52:30.:52:34.

protecting vulnerable road users. This stuff really matters. You see

:52:35.:52:40.

lorries going around with four stickers on, that is a fleet

:52:41.:52:44.

operator scheme which is designed to produce the very best safest

:52:45.:52:49.

training. But everyone has a stake in this. All road users must play

:52:50.:52:54.

their part. There are some great cyclists out there but there are

:52:55.:52:59.

also some dangerous cyclists who bring cycling into an area of risk.

:53:00.:53:04.

We think it is about education. Everyone needs better training to be

:53:05.:53:09.

safer from the roads. Thank you for joining us this morning. I think the

:53:10.:53:14.

messages everyone has the same goal. Everyone wants no deaths on our

:53:15.:53:18.

roads. The Department for Transport have said they are doing everything

:53:19.:53:22.

they can to increase the amount of investment on our infrastructure and

:53:23.:53:25.

it has tripled in the past five years. The event taking place here

:53:26.:53:30.

in Trafalgar Square is a protest. It is also a memorial to those who have

:53:31.:53:36.

died. Everyone is in agreement that one death is one too many. Thank

:53:37.:53:39.

you. There's something quite unique

:53:40.:53:42.

about the bond between a group of middle-aged footballers

:53:43.:53:46.

who gather once or twice a week But it wasn't until our next guest,

:53:47.:53:48.

journalist James Brown suddenly lost one of his team mates

:53:49.:53:53.

that he realised just how So much so that he decided

:53:54.:53:56.

to write a book about it. Morning to you. Tell us the tale.

:53:57.:54:09.

This is a group of middle-aged men? I have been playing amateur football

:54:10.:54:13.

all my life. 14 months ago a friend died. He was the organiser of our

:54:14.:54:20.

team. I realise that the funeral I have never seen any of the mourners

:54:21.:54:24.

in clothes before, they were always in shorts and tight tops. It was

:54:25.:54:29.

very sad that James passed away. He had not been ill or anything. I just

:54:30.:54:34.

thought about this world of passionate footballers. We play in

:54:35.:54:39.

rain and shine. No one cheers us on. You're basically living out the

:54:40.:54:44.

dream. Every week someone scores an amazing goal. If it had been on

:54:45.:54:47.

Match Of The Day it would be goal of the week. I really wanted to get

:54:48.:54:53.

into that world of what I call sporting karaoke. What is

:54:54.:54:57.

interesting is the point you make that you can play together every

:54:58.:55:01.

week for years and years but actually not know that much about

:55:02.:55:05.

each other? James was a friend who introduced me to the game but I play

:55:06.:55:09.

three games a week, the majority of the guys I do not know their

:55:10.:55:14.

surnames, I don't know what they do for a living, I don't know if they

:55:15.:55:18.

are married or they have kids. I know what their personalities are

:55:19.:55:22.

like on the pitch. That particular game I have been playing for 17

:55:23.:55:28.

years. The feedback I have got from other players, I have asked for a

:55:29.:55:34.

lot of stories through Twitter and so on, people say the same thing. It

:55:35.:55:38.

might be through workmates or an ever expanding group and the game

:55:39.:55:43.

evolves all the time, unless you are in the legal something. Do think

:55:44.:55:47.

that is why people like it so much. It is not as if you are living each

:55:48.:55:51.

other's lives, you're not next-door neighbours. It is when you don't

:55:52.:55:56.

have to deal with all the other stuff, is that part of the

:55:57.:55:59.

attraction? Definitely when you get older. When you get the

:56:00.:56:05.

responsibilities of family, work, pressures of health, this is just an

:56:06.:56:11.

escape. It is a very noisy version of yoga. You clear your mind, you

:56:12.:56:15.

have to look at what everybody is doing. If you make a great save or

:56:16.:56:19.

score a great goal, that stays in your mind for ages. What do you

:56:20.:56:26.

cover in your book? I start with James' death. I cover all of the

:56:27.:56:31.

things that go on every day, every week. Anybody who lives in an

:56:32.:56:36.

inner-city sees people at lunchtime with big coats and football kits.

:56:37.:56:41.

Every time the ball goes over a fence in an outdoor pitch it will

:56:42.:56:45.

not come back first time, you stand around and wait for a kid to throw

:56:46.:56:49.

it back. There are goalkeepers who wear gloves but cannot catch the

:56:50.:56:53.

ball. There are fact guys who can shoot, skinny guys who cannot

:56:54.:56:58.

tackle, there is everything, the camaraderie. I love playing

:56:59.:57:05.

football. I was never good enough to be a professional footballer but I

:57:06.:57:09.

think it is that love of playing. Half a million people play every

:57:10.:57:14.

week. Did the death of the guy you play with, did that make you think a

:57:15.:57:21.

bit harder about whether you should know people better? Did you think,

:57:22.:57:26.

we should spend time together or did you settle back again? The thing

:57:27.:57:32.

that was really touching was the following week, nobody organised us

:57:33.:57:37.

but we went to the middle and we stood there and shut up for a minute

:57:38.:57:42.

and thought about him. Specifically, James was the organiser of our game

:57:43.:57:47.

and they are the unsung heroes. Not the guys who play at Power league or

:57:48.:57:52.

goals, the ones who play amongst themselves, who get the bids, who

:57:53.:57:57.

make sure we have got a ball. He was the one who kept the score. We never

:57:58.:58:02.

know the score any more. It is moving. There will be people this

:58:03.:58:06.

morning heading out in the rain or the snow or whatever. James' book is

:58:07.:58:17.

called Above Head Height. Now before we go we have been

:58:18.:58:21.

talking about parks and a lot of you have been sending in your pictures.

:58:22.:58:29.

We have a misty sunrise. James has snapped this one. This was last year

:58:30.:58:37.

apparently but it is a nice picture! And this is Ruby having an afternoon

:58:38.:58:45.

run in water with her owner -- a run in Rotherham. We have some great

:58:46.:58:56.

amateur autocracies here. -- some great amateur photographers here. If

:58:57.:59:01.

you are at in the park, have a great day. We are back tomorrow at 6am.

:59:02.:59:03.

That
