The spread of birth defects possibly linked to the Zika | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
virus is now a global health emergency. | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Following thousands of cases in South America, | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
the World Health Organisation warns that action is essential on a bigger | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
A coordinated international response is needed to minimise the threat in | :00:19. | :00:33. | |
affected countries, and reduce the risk of further international | :00:34. | :00:34. | |
spread. We'll be reporting from | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
South America, where urgent measures are being adopted to try | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
to contain the crisis. And we'll be looking at the latest | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
measures being recommended Scientists in London are the first | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
to be given formal approval to genetically modify human embryos | :00:44. | :00:52. | |
for research purposes. The search for a new settlement | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
between the UK and the EU - new proposals will be tabled | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
by the European Council tomorrow. Trump and Clinton and a range of US | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
presidential hopefuls will soon find out if they've impressed | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
the voters in Iowa - This has been a race dominated by | :01:10. | :01:24. | |
the antiestablishment insurgence, Donald Trump from the right, Bernie | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
Sanders from the left, leaving those in the mainstream very fearful | :01:30. | :01:30. | |
indeed. And the most sought-after | :01:31. | :01:31. | |
manager in football, Pep Guardiola, is to join | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
Manchester City in the summer. A helping hand onto the housing | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
ladder but critics say the new Government scheme | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
will still leave many priced out And can new measures help cut | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
the number of deaths The spread of birth defects possibly | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
linked to the Zika virus has now been declared an international | :01:46. | :02:12. | |
emergency by the World Experts are concerned that the virus | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
is spreading far more rapidly than previously thought, | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
with potentially devastating Research and aid will now be | :02:20. | :02:20. | |
coordinated and fast-tracked Our first report this evening | :02:21. | :02:28. | |
is from the city of Recife in north-east Brazil, | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
one of the worst-affected regions, from where our science editor | :02:33. | :02:33. | |
David Shukman sent this report. A young woman, four months pregnant, | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
has just heard she may be infected An agonising glimpse | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
into a nightmare, now declared Another pregnant woman who asked us | :02:41. | :02:47. | |
not to show her face says This woman has red eyes, | :02:48. | :02:55. | |
a typical symptom of Zika. She is due to give birth in two | :02:56. | :03:05. | |
months' time and she's waiting I'm feeling worried, | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
she says, because she has aches and a rash, which are also | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
indicators of the virus. Here at the epicentre | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
of the outbreak, the worst This woman says nobody knows if Zika | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
affects just the beginning What's so disturbing about what's | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
happening here is that the women are turning up with a lot of highly | :03:32. | :03:43. | |
personal, very pressing questions Above all, what damage could Zika do | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
to their babies? The painful moment when test results | :03:46. | :03:53. | |
are handed out. Evidence is growing that the virus | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
is to blame for deforming babies' brains, but it's not certain, | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
so there's no way of When you see on the ultrasound | :04:01. | :04:02. | |
something is wrong, And then you know that, | :04:03. | :04:11. | |
after you tell her, she will ask If the children will walk, | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
will hear properly, will see Like several thousand babies | :04:17. | :04:25. | |
in Brazil, Anika was born with a small brain, and unless she's | :04:26. | :04:33. | |
rocked all the time Her mother, Mikaela, | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
is clearly overwhelmed. It's not the moment to get pregnant, | :04:37. | :04:45. | |
she says, because so far nobody For medical specialists, | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
this is uncharted territory and tonight's emergency declaration | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
should bring them more funding. It is badly needed because it isn't | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
just babies' brains This little boy not only has | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
a small head but his legs He is one of six babies in Recife | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
with extreme disabilities blamed The problem with these babies | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
is in the spine. The motor neurone that makes | :05:15. | :05:23. | |
the muscle move have a problem, and so these babies have some | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
muscles without function. All of this adds to the urgency | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
of killing the mosquitoes that carry the virus, | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
but reaching them is difficult, so from today officials | :05:37. | :05:38. | |
have a new power - The key is public support, | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
so the authorities are harnessing A mosquito costume raises awareness | :05:41. | :05:50. | |
of the dangers. Anything to get people to join | :05:51. | :05:58. | |
the fight against the insects. The reality is that wherever | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
you have got a sweltering tropical climate, water everywhere, | :06:06. | :06:07. | |
and poor sanitation, it's going to be almost impossible | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
to wipe out the mosquitoes. But that means that whatever | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
international action is taken, one thing is clear - | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
the threat of the Zika virus will be All day, as Mikaela rocks her baby, | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
she worries about how she will cope. This glance shows there | :06:20. | :06:31. | |
is some brain function, but no one can tell how | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
this crisis will unfold. David Shukman, BBC News, | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
Recife in Brazil. The alert by the World Health | :06:39. | :06:46. | |
Organisation puts the Zika threat Dr Margaret Chan said | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
it was an extraordinary event which needed a coordinated | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
international response. An emergency meeting | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
of the WHO was held today in Geneva, as our global health correspondent | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
Tulip Mazumdar reports. There haven't been any confirmed | :06:59. | :07:07. | |
cases of microcephaly here in El Salvador so far | :07:08. | :07:09. | |
but officials aren't There's still no scientific proof | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
that Zika causes the birth defect, but the World Health Organisation | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
says a causal link is strongly The recent cluster of microcephaly | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
and other neurological abnormalities reported in Latin America | :07:21. | :07:31. | |
following a similar cluster of French Polynesia in 2014 | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
constitutes a public health The WHO had been under a lot | :07:39. | :07:40. | |
of pressure to deal with this situation quickly after it was | :07:41. | :07:49. | |
severely criticised for its response The agency said that didn't | :07:50. | :07:51. | |
impact its decision today and that this is a global emergency | :07:52. | :07:59. | |
that needs a global response. The Zika virus is not considered | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
particularly harmful to most people. It is babies and families in Brazil | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
who are bearing the brunt of this It is unclear how and why Zika | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
could be affecting pregnant women and their unborn children | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
in such a devastating way. Zika is spread by mosquitoes that | :08:21. | :08:33. | |
thrive in tropical climates. They are the same insects that | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
spread dengue and yellow fever. Preparations for Rio's | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
carnival are in full swing. The World Health Organisation says | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
there is no need to restrict travel or trade, but the agency did say | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
pregnant women may wish to delay There is no chance the Zika virus | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
will spread in the UK. There is no human to human | :08:47. | :08:55. | |
transfer of infection. You have to have that particular | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
species of mosquito to spread the disease and we do not | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
have it here in the UK. Brazil is leading the fight | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
against this outbreak. But the WHO has now called | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
for a co-ordinated international response with an urgent call | :09:08. | :09:09. | |
for more research into vaccines and cures to try and ensure more | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
children don't have to face Our science editor David | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
Shukman is in Recife. What is your assessment of the | :09:16. | :09:38. | |
latest response there by the Brazilian authorities? The first | :09:39. | :09:45. | |
thing to say is that the numbers are frankly all over the place, they are | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
disputed. Today Brazil's health minister said he thought the crisis | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
was being underreported because so many people who get the virus don't | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
show symptoms things could be worse than anyone thought. Some scientists | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
say that if you look at the numbers there haven't been that many | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
confirmed cases where a mother has Zika, passed it to the baby and the | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
baby was born with those birth defects, so there is a huge amount | :10:11. | :10:19. | |
of work to do. Scientists in Recife think the problem may be seasonable | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
-- seasonal because in December there was a huge number of birth | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
defects but in recent weeks very few new cases are coming forward. That | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
sounds like good news and in many ways it is, but we are just coming | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
into the rainy season which means more mosquito is, more infection and | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
more risk of birth defects down the track. The huge amount of work to | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
do, and that is where the WHO comes in, it should unleash more funding | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
for those who most need it, pregnant women. Thank you. | :10:55. | :10:59. | |

Scientists in Britain have for the first time been given formal | :11:11. | :11:12. | |
approval to genetically modify human embryos. | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
The fertility regulator the HFEA has granted permission for the technique | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
to be used in a study in London to help study | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
Critics are warning it's the first step towards legalising | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
Our medical correspondent Fergus Walsh has the story. | :11:28. | :11:35. | |
Creating human life in a dish - scientists have been able to do that | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
for decades, but now they can go a step further, | :11:40. | :11:41. | |
Researchers in London will be using donated embryos left over | :11:42. | :11:49. | |
from IVF, which will only be allowed to develop for a few days and never | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
It's the first time a project like this has been approved | :11:53. | :12:02. | |
It's really important for understanding basic biology | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
of a human embryo and it has all sorts of potential clinical | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
benefits in terms of better IVF and avoiding | :12:11. | :12:12. | |
Emma endured four miscarriages in the space of a year. | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
For her, like many women, the causes will remain a mystery. | :12:19. | :12:25. | |
I find it frustrating that I never had answers as to why I kept | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
miscarrying so if this research had come earlier and could help me | :12:31. | :12:32. | |
provide answers, then I guess it could maybe have saved | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
Only the area in green will go on to form the foetus. | :12:36. | :12:44. | |
Scientists will edit the genes of those cells to see what faults | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
Gene editing is cheap, simple, and accessible to scientists | :12:48. | :12:57. | |
It scans our DNA, reading the code, looking for the error. | :12:58. | :13:06. | |
Then it uses molecular scissors to snip through those strands, | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
switching off the faulty gene, or enabling a healthy | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
Both techniques have the potential to treat | :13:11. | :13:21. | |
For some, today's decision is the slippery slope | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
which will inevitably lead to designer humans and eugenics. | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
In fact, gene editing is already being used to change all types | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
of life and that may raise more pressing concerns. | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
It has huge ramifications on the environment, in terms | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
of insects and animals and so on, plants. | :13:43. | :13:49. | |
It has huge ramifications in terms of how you develop biological | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
Those are the things I think we need to concentrate on. | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
We get hung up on the idea that somehow people are going | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
Never happened and I don't think it will happen in the near future. | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
It may take years before this research leads to better fertility | :14:04. | :14:05. | |
treatments, but across every field of science, gene editing | :14:06. | :14:08. | |
Improving human health is just a part of that. | :14:09. | :14:19. | |
Proposals for a new settlement between the UK and the | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
European Union will be tabled tomorrow by the president | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
of the European Council, Donald Tusk. | :14:27. | :14:27. | |
He said there'd been good progress in talks between the two sides, | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
but stressed there were still outstanding issues to be addressed. | :14:31. | :14:32. | |
David Cameron is trying to renegotiate the terms of the UK's | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
membership ahead of a possible referendum in June, as our deputy | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
political editor James Landale reports. | :14:39. | :14:46. | |
There is some flash photography in this report. This morning tired | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
British negotiators headed back to Brussels for another day of talks. | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
Any chance of success? They hope so, because tomorrow they'll earn just | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
what their months of hard work have produced. Around noon, Donald Tusk, | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
the Polish President of the EU council, will publish the detailed | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
proposals for reforming the EU that he and David Cameron have been | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
discussing for days. Showing a confidence that they now think a | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
deal can be done. The key issue is what mechanism they've agreed to try | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
to deter EU migrants from arriving at ports and airports across the | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
country, by reducing the benefits they can claim while working. The | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
current option is for a so-called emergency brake. This would allow | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
the Government to restrict the benefits of EU migrants who've got a | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
job for up to four years. But the Government can only do this when the | :15:42. | :15:43. | |
numbers were so high that pressure was being put on public services. | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
The European Commission says that threshold has already been met, so | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
some people this their hope they can pull this brake immediately after a | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
referendum. But the crucial details of who apply this is brake and when | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
and for how long are still up for negotiation ahead of a crucial | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
summit in two weeks' time. What seems to be on offer is a brake that | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
the Eurocrats are going to control. They will determine whether it is | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
two, four years or seven years. The British penal want to be in control. | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
Some nations fear their citizens could lose benefits unfairly if the | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
EU's commitment to the free movement of labour is watered down. This | :16:24. | :16:32. | |
negotiation with the UK cannot be at any price, because to help Cameron | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
to win this referendum we cannot do it at the price of destroying all | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
the rest of what is our thinking. But it's not just welfare changes | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
that the Government is seeking. It wants greater protection for the | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
City of London by giving countries outside the eurozone the power to | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
challenge decisions made by those within it. It wants more powers for | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
Westminster and other Parliaments to block EU laws and opt out of greater | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
integration. And it wants the EU to be more competitive so it is easier | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
for the UK to export its goods and services. So Westminster is braced | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
for a big day tomorrow, when it finally cease what reforms the Prime | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
Minister may deliver and judge if they are enough to win a referendum. | :17:16. | :17:23. | |
Tonight more details are emerging of this draft deal. If a majority of | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
national Parliaments, 55%, think some new EU law stinks they will get | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
a new power to block that law and they'll have three months to make up | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
their minds. But also tonight a question mark over the timing of | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
this referendum. The SNP have launched a cross-party campaign to | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
oppose having a referendum in June. They think it might clash with other | :17:44. | :17:50. | |
elections in May. And if Labour join that campaign, potentially the Prime | :17:51. | :17:52. | |
Minister could face a pretty tricky vote in the months to come. James, | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
thank you. Our Europe editor Katya | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
Adler is in Brussels. Can you tell us what you think will | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
be part of these proposals tabled tomorrow? Well, firstly Huw this is | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
a big night in Brussels tonight. That announcement that a draft new | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
settlement, as it is being called, between the UK and the EU will | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
finally be made public tomorrow and sent on to all other EU member | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
states. Every single one of them has to sign up to it. That's expected at | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
an EU Schmitt in Brussels in a couple of weeks. Expected but not | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
guaranteed. A high level EU source said to me tonight the man releasing | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
the draft document tomorrow, Donald Tusk, wouldn't publish unless he was | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
pretty sure that all big EU players were on board. That said, added my | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
source, they fully expected complaints from Euro-sceptics in the | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
UK, and groans from central and Eastern Europe about the suspension | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
of EU migrant benefits. EU countries now have two weeks to bicker, barter | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
and perhaps bow to EU reform demands. If there is agreement, that | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
will open the door for the Prime Minister to set a date for the UK's | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
referendum on EU membership. Thank you. | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
A strike by junior doctors in England will go ahead next week, | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
following the failure of the latest talks on the terms | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
But the doctors' union, the British Medical Association, | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
says emergency cover will be provided. | :19:28. | :19:29. | |
The industrial action will begin on the morning | :19:30. | :19:31. | |
Our health editor, Hugh Pym, is at a hospital in central London. | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
Your thoughts on what the sticking point now is in these negotiations. | :19:36. | :19:43. | |
Both sides say some progress has been made in recent weeks, but the | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
major sticking point is over pay for doctors on Saturdays. The Government | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
wants to reduce the amount they get paid extra for working for much of a | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
Saturday and bring it in line with what they are paid on week days. | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
Ministers say that will make it easier for hospital management to | :20:00. | :20:02. | |
put more doctors on duty at weekends. The BMA completely rejects | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
that and says junior doctors already work weekends and do unsocial hours | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
and unsocial shifts and it is unfair to remove some of those extra | :20:15. | :20:23. | |
payments. There are talks planned at the conciliation service ACAS. I | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
suspect tonight we are getting nearer the point when Ministers have | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
to make a decision on whether it is the course of action they are going | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
to take. After months of campaigning, | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
voting for the US presidential nominations will begin in a few | :20:40. | :20:41. | |
hours' time in the Midwestern state of Iowa, providing some | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
clues for the race ahead. The polls are still suggesting | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
that the Republican, Donald Trump, and Democrat Hillary | :20:50. | :20:51. | |
Clinton, both have narrow leads For the latest, let's | :20:52. | :20:53. | |
join our North America editor, Jon Sopel, who's | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
in Des Moines tonight. In a few hours' time we should have | :21:00. | :21:10. | |
the result of the Iowa caucus here in this Des Moines nerve centre. | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
It's been a battle dominated by outsiders. Sure Donald Trump has | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
dominated the headlines but equally significant on the Democrat side is | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
the challenge mounted by a veteran left-wing Senator from Vermont. At | :21:28. | :21:39. | |
his final campaign rally they are singing for Bernie Sanders. I'm a | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
warrior for the political revolution in Bernie Sanders. Some have come | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
prepared to fight for Bernie Sanders. Do you think it would take | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
a political revolution to elect him? Yes and I think it is happening. We | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
love Bernie. He gets things done. He works across party lines. He is the | :21:59. | :22:05. | |
best. And inside they are cheering themselves hoarse for this unlike | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
lib insurgent hero. It sounds like you want to make a political | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
revolution! CHEERING. He is 74 years old, admits | :22:13. | :22:22. | |
to being grumpy, but has electrified the Democratic race, with talk of | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
raising the minimum wage, scrapping tuition fees and a NHS for the US. | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
The power phrase Abraham Lincoln, this is a campaign of the people, by | :22:32. | :22:38. | |
the people and for the people. CHEERING. So Bernie Sanders ends his | :22:39. | :22:49. | |
rally to the strains of David Bowie's Starman. Anyone less like | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
Ziggy Stardust it is hard to imagine, but with his mental of | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
massive economic and wealth redistribution he wants a political | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
revolution and for that he's being treated like a rock star here. All | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
of which might be enough to leave Hillary Clinton feeling slightly | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
alarmed. Enjoy the day. How does it feel? Excellent. She lost here 8 | :23:14. | :23:21. | |
years ago to Barack Obama, and must fear history repeating itself. The | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
former Secretary of State was the run away favourite to win this race | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
but is now neck and neck with Sanders, so the whole family is | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
being deployed. Coffee and pastry this morning with daughter Chelsea | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
while hub Bill was out here as well. And the other insurgent in the | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
Republican race, Donald Trump, was joined on stage this afternoon by | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
his wife. Not that that resulted in any tone down of his rhetoric Had he | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
had this message for his supporters in case there were protesters. If | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
of them, seriously. The politicians have spoken, and boy have some of | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
them spoken a lot. But tonight, finally, it's the voice of the | :24:10. | :24:11. | |
people. Alphabet, the parent company | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
of Google, has overtaken Apple as the most valuable company | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
in the United States. Our economics editor, | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
Kamal Ahmed, is with me. In the last hour Google has brought | :24:26. | :24:33. | |
out its annual results. Google is a very big business and there are some | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
very big numbers attached to those annual results. Its sales for 2015 | :24:39. | :24:49. | |
totalled ?52.3 billion. Success in search, success in YouTube, success | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
in its Android mobile telephone system. Customers are flooding | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
towards Google. Clearly it has been caught in all sorts of controversies | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
here over tax payments but that seems like a little local | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
difficulty. Those revenues are up 13.5% over the same period last | :25:08. | :25:10. | |
year. So whatever the difficulty here it is quite a localised | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
problem. And given these figures, do they in your view change the terms | :25:16. | :25:18. | |
of the debate we've had in the UK about tax and Google and the rest of | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
it? I think they will focus minds once again. Google revealed this | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
evening that its sales in the UK were up by 20%. ?1.4 billion extra | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
on what it was doing in 2014. The UK is such a big market Google. It is | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
the only territory outside America because it has to separate out | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
because it is above 10% of its revenues. Google says you don't tax | :25:44. | :25:50. | |
sales but people looking at Google saying your profit margin is 25%, | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
your sales are up by 25%, you are making billion obvious pounds in | :25:57. | :26:00. | |
sales in the UK it will focus that debate more definitely. Thank you. | :26:01. | :26:07. | |
20 years after the death of a young recruit at the Deepcut Army barracks | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
in Surrey, a second inquest has been opened. | :26:12. | :26:13. | |
Private Cheryl James, who was 18, was found with a bullet wound | :26:14. | :26:15. | |
The original inquest recorded an open verdict, but that was | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
quashed when new allegations were made of a culture | :26:22. | :26:23. | |
Our home affairs correspondent, June Kelly, has the story. | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
Private Cheryl James had just turned 18 when she died while on guard duty | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
She was found with a single bullet wound to her head. | :26:33. | :26:40. | |
Deepcut then has been depicted as a place of bullying and fear. | :26:41. | :26:43. | |
Between 1995 and 2002, Cheryl James was one of four young | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
For years their families have been battling to find out the full facts | :26:49. | :26:56. | |
Cheryl's parents are the first to have a new inquest. | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
Among the allegations it will examine is a claim that Cheryl | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
may have been raped the night before she died. | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
You think, I should have been there, if I had been there I could | :27:08. | :27:23. | |
But today the coroner, Judge Brian Barker, said the inquest | :27:24. | :27:30. | |
wasn't a public inquiry and at present he didn't intend | :27:31. | :27:32. | |
to look at an alleged culture of sexual abuse at the barracks. | :27:33. | :27:35. | |
So why has it taken so long to get to this point? | :27:36. | :27:38. | |
Well, in 1995, three weeks after Cheryl died, a brief inquest | :27:39. | :27:41. | |
Her death was investigated by the Royal Military Police. | :27:42. | :27:48. | |
In 2002, Surrey Police began an investigation into all four | :27:49. | :27:53. | |
Deepcut deaths and found no evidence of any crime. | :27:54. | :27:57. | |
In 2006, a review by a senior lawyer concluded that Cheryl's wound | :27:58. | :28:01. | |
Then in 2014 her parents won their fight to have a new | :28:02. | :28:07. | |
inquest after their lawyers finally got access to all the material | :28:08. | :28:10. | |
Cheryl's father was expecting to be the first person | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
But there was a delay because new forensic | :28:17. | :28:20. | |
The family, who've battled for years to see this inquest start, | :28:21. | :28:24. | |
It's football transfer deadline day, but the headlines are being made not | :28:25. | :28:40. | |
Manchester City have announced that Manuel Pellegrini is leaving | :28:41. | :28:44. | |
the club at the end of the season, and they've revealed that he's | :28:45. | :28:47. | |
being replaced by Pep Guardiola, the Spaniard who won a cabinet full | :28:48. | :28:50. | |
of trophies in a four-year period at Barcelona and is currently | :28:51. | :28:52. | |
Our sports editor, Dan Roan, has the story. | :28:53. | :28:59. | |
Never has a football manager been so in control. While most live in fear | :29:00. | :29:05. | |
of their jobs, Pep Guardiola can take his pick. The Spaniard is | :29:06. | :29:09. | |
widely regarded as the best coach in the world and now his talents will | :29:10. | :29:14. | |
be tested in the Premier League. The man he is replacing, Manuel | :29:15. | :29:17. | |
Pellegrini, won the title just two seasons ago, but today he confirmed | :29:18. | :29:23. | |
he would be leaving Manchester City. The news sudden but not unexpected. | :29:24. | :29:27. | |
I talked with the club and I finished my contract in the original | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
date, in June. One month ago, but I don't think it is good all this | :29:33. | :29:39. | |
rumour and speculation. City immediately announced that Guardiola | :29:40. | :29:43. | |
would replace him. The 45-year-old has become a truly outstanding | :29:44. | :29:46. | |
coach. In four years in charge of Barcelona he won no fewer than 14 | :29:47. | :29:51. | |
trophies, including three league titles, three Spanish cups and the | :29:52. | :29:55. | |
Champions League twice. He has continued that success with Bayern | :29:56. | :30:01. | |
Munich and his biggest fan told us that City have chosen well. He has | :30:02. | :30:07. | |
had a lot of success. But it hasn't gone to his head. He has always kept | :30:08. | :30:13. | |
his feet on the ground. He will give everything. City are still in | :30:14. | :30:16. | |
contention for four trophies this season but European success has | :30:17. | :30:21. | |
proved elusive and the club's Abu Dhabi owners will expect that to | :30:22. | :30:27. | |
change. The combination of one of football's wealthiest clubs with its | :30:28. | :30:31. | |
most coveted coach is an awesome statement of intent for Manchester | :30:32. | :30:34. | |
City and presents a mainly threat to the opposition. Not least the club's | :30:35. | :30:39. | |
arch-rivals across town. For years Manchester United held the balance | :30:40. | :30:43. | |
of power. But under Louis van Gaal their recent struggles have | :30:44. | :30:47. | |
continued and soon Guardiola could make life even more uncomfortable. | :30:48. | :30:51. | |
This guy knows what he is talking about. He knows the game inside out. | :30:52. | :30:58. | |
He spends a lot of time focusing on details, how you can hurt the | :30:59. | :31:03. | |
opposition. Having conquered Spain and Germany Guardiola is seen as a | :31:04. | :31:07. | |
sporting genius more than a football manager. The relentless demands of | :31:08. | :31:11. | |
the Premier League however could put that status to the ultimate test. | :31:12. | :31:16. | |
