Tens of thousands of people on the streets of Liverpool | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
to honour the Hillsborough victims, as South Yorkshire's Chief | :00:08. | :00:09. | |
as the city's mayor praises their fight for justice. | :00:10. | :00:25. | |
Yesterday, the wall of lies was finally torn down. | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
South Yorkshire's Chief Constable is suspended - | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
his force accused of putting the families through hell again | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
Shamefully, the cover-up continued in this Warrington court room. | :00:39. | :00:48. | |
Millions of pounds of public money was spent retelling discredited lies | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
The authorities that should have been trusted have laid blame and | :00:52. | :01:00. | |
tried to protect themselves, instead of acting in the public interest. | :01:01. | :01:07. | |
We'll be looking at where the Hillsborough families' campaign for | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
justice goes from here. The Labour MP Naz Shah, | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
at the centre of an anti-semitism row, has been suspended | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
from the party. Britain's Olympic cycling team | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
in crisis as their coach resigns With tens of thousands of elephants | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
dying every year in Africa, a special report on the fight | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
to save them. And coming up in Sportsday | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
at 10:30pm on BBC News. and it's gone to Atletico | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
against Bayern Munich. Around 30,000 people gathered | :01:36. | :02:02. | |
at a vigil in Liverpool this evening, to honour the 96 | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
football fans who died Yesterday, an inquest concluded | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
that the Liverpool supporters Tonight, the crowds applauded | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
the bereaved families who, for 27 years, have fought | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
so hard for justice. And there were cheers at the news | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
that the Chief Constable of South Yorkshire police, | :02:25. | :02:26. | |
David Crompton, has been suspended. He's been facing mounting criticism | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
over his force's conduct Our Home Editor Mark Easton | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
reports from Liverpool. # With hope in your heart. # | :02:32. | :02:50. | |
Liverpool wears its heart on its sleeve. This was an evening where | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
its people and its heroes turned out in their thousands to give thanks, | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
to reflect and to join together in the song that has become the anthem | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
for the 96 victims of Hillsborough. There are macro you'll never walk | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
alone. # You'll never walk alone. # | :03:08. | :03:15. | |
. The truth has triumphed and a jury in a court of law has said, "Yes, | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
your loved ones were unlawfully killed, and no, the fans were not to | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
blame". CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Football legend Kenny Dalglish, | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
Liverpool aristocracy, read a poem to the huge crowd. I will never | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
leave you or forsake you. In other words, you will never walk alone. | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
There have been a fair few vigils across 27 years. Rest in peace. | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
Justice for the 96. Usually, the speeches are defiant, of a fight | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
against the odds but with the news of the suspension of South | :03:56. | :03:56. | |
Yorkshire's Chief Constable filtering through to the crowd, | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
tonight, the mood was confident, of a fight that will be one. Somebody | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
has been suspended from South Yorkshire Police. CHEERING AND | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
APPLAUSE Let's hope, let's hope that's only | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
the beginning of what is going to be done, because all of you, alongside | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
all of us, have had 27 years of sleepless nights. Let's hope they | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
are getting theirs, now. Starts from now. He was not part of the | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
Hillsborough tragedy nor any cover-up in its immediate aftermath. | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
But go back to 2012 for what led to David Crompton's suspension. I would | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
wish to profoundly apologise... South Yorkshire's Chief Constable | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
maybes public apology after the government 's independent inquiry | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
into Hillsborough exonerated the fans of the cause was the force's | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
failures. Today, as I have said before, I want to apologise | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
unreservedly... Yesterday, David Crompton repeated the apology but in | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
between, throughout the two-year long inquest, the force's lawyers | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
repeatedly suggested drunk and noncompliant Liverpool fans were | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
partly responsible. Millions of pounds of public money were spent, | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
retelling discredited lies against Liverpool supporters. Lawyers for | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
retired officers through disgusting slurs around. In the Commons today, | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
the Shadow Home Secretary said South Yorkshire Police had gone back on | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
their apology. If the police had chosen to maintain its apology, this | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
inquest would have been much shorter. But they didn't and they | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
put the families through hell once again. Earlier, the Home Secretary, | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
her voice cracking with emotion, paid tribute to the Hillsborough | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
campaigners. No one should have to endure what the families and | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
survivors have been through. No one should have to suffer the loss of | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
their loved ones through such appalling circumstances. And no one | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
should have to fight, year after year, decade after decade, in search | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
of the truth. South Yorkshire Police today issued yet another apology, | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
defending their legal tactics. Shortly afterwards, Chief Constable | :06:07. | :06:35. | |
David Crompton was suspended by South Yorkshire's Police and Crime | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
Commissioner, who is himself standing for re-election next week. | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
My decision is based on the erosion of public trust and confidence, | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
referenced in statements and comments in the House of Commons | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
this lunchtime, along with public calls for the Chief Constable's | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
resignation from a number of quarters, including local MPs. At | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
the vigil in Liverpool, news that David Crompton had cleared his desk | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
was greeted with delight. One victim's daughter reflected on South | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
Yorkshire's tactics at the inquest. Frustration does not really cover | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
it. I can't explain how angry it makes you feel a cause you know it | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
is not the truth, you know it is a pack of absolute lies. -- because | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
you know. Yesterday's inquest verdicts seem to have reenergised | :07:24. | :07:25. | |
the Hillsborough campaign in the city. It is as though the power has | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
shifted, and it has shifted to the people of Liverpool. There is a way | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
to go before prosecutions and despite the unlawful killing | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
decision yesterday, it may not be straightforward. But this is a fight | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
that has never been easy and after 27 years, you can make -- be sure | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
the Hillsborough campaigners are not giving up now. Mark Easton, BBC | :07:48. | :07:48. | |
News, Liverpool. The families of the Hillsborough | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
victims said the suspension of the Chief Constable | :07:53. | :07:54. | |
of South Yorkshire Police was "only the beginning | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
of what needed to be done". The force is facing two | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
criminal investigations - into police actions on the day | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
of the disaster and into the alleged Our correspondent Judith Moritz | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
reports on the families It's so important because that was | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
what Chris was wearing and that's sadly what he was wearing | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
when he lost his life. Barry Devonside has little left | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
to remind him of his son. They went to Hillsborough together | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
but Barry returned without 18-year-old Christopher, | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
shown here in that red shirt. His last moments alive | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
were caught on video. We filmed Barry as he watched it | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
with his lawyer for the first time. Footage like this has been | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
painstakingly gathered as evidence but Barry says he has little faith | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
in the criminal investigators When we've asked specific questions | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
like how many people do you consider Then you try other questions, but | :08:47. | :08:54. | |
you gain no information whatsoever. Two criminal investigations | :08:55. | :09:02. | |
into Hillsborough have One is into manslaughter and other | :09:03. | :09:04. | |
possible offences on the day. The other is examining allegations | :09:05. | :09:15. | |
of a police cover-up afterwards. Those in charge know some families | :09:16. | :09:17. | |
have felt frustrated. It's probably even more difficult | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
for them to have trust in any part of the state, | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
because of the experiences The last thing I would do or expect | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
is to be trusted and for people I'm hoping ultimately they will be | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
able to judge us by The IPCC is investigating amendments | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
made to 260 statements written by police officers who | :09:37. | :09:46. | |
were at Hillsborough, to find out how and why | :09:47. | :09:48. | |
they were changed. The secrets of Hillsborough are | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
contained in this room which holds thousands of artefacts, | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
from long-defunct floppy disks like this one, | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
to more than 5000 police notebooks. They have been unearthed | :09:59. | :10:00. | |
for the first time from sheds, They were looked at for the inquests | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
but they could also now provide evidence for any | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
future prosecutions. Our back gate is a bit further | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
down and the car turned under police surveillance | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
after the disaster. Officers sitting | :10:19. | :10:27. | |
outside their house. Her complaint is one of those | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
which is now under We used to joke within | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
the family about it. But it never entered our heads | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
to report it because who There didn't seem a lot | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
of point in that. It wasn't until the IPCC | :10:41. | :10:52. | |
started their extended investigations and there had been | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
mumblings of surveillance with other people, and they said | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
"Well, make a complaint". Today Liverpool feels | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
like a different place. The families may still have a long | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
time to wait for prosecutions, but perhaps at last the city | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
is starting to heal Let's go back to our Home Editor, | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
Mark Easton, who's in Liverpool. Many of the families saying | :11:11. | :11:22. | |
they have the truth, I think justice, to the campaigners, | :11:23. | :11:37. | |
means prosecutions, it means people in the dock. The police and the IPCC | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
know that expectations are high. They know that yesterday's jury | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
decision at the inquest on an unlawful killing and perhaps a | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
surprise suspension of the Chief Constable of South Yorkshire will | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
push anticipation that may be criminal proceedings will not be | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
that far-away. But they are both warning tonight that people should | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
be patient. They have had to wait, actually, until the end of the | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
inquest to interview many people, re-interview some and that has | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
delayed them and it is going to be many months before they can present | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
the evidence. Actually, the jury verdict does not change anything. It | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
will be on the evidence that the prosecution will or will not go | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
ahead. They are warning that it will be some time, probably the end of | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
the. But you know, they are not going to rush this. -- end of the | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
year. As far as they are concerned, this process has taken 27 years but | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
there is no sprint finish. The authorities are determined, they | :12:37. | :12:39. | |
say, this time, to get it right. Thank you for joining us. | :12:40. | :12:41. | |
Growth in the economy is slowing, according to the latest figures | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
from the Office for National Statistics. | :12:45. | :12:45. | |
It says GDP expanded by 0.4% in the first | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
That's down from 0.6% in the last three months of 2015. | :12:49. | :12:55. | |
The Chancellor George Osborne blamed uncertainty caused | :12:56. | :12:57. | |
by the EU referendum, a claim rejected by groups | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
campaigning to leave the European Union. | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
Our Economics Editor, Kamal Ahmed reports. | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
Building up a picture of our nation's economic performance, | :13:07. | :13:14. | |
today's GDP figures show that growth has slowed, | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
fixing the economy has become a little harder. | :13:19. | :13:30. | |
the European Union referendum. | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
but there are warnings today that the threat of leaving the EU is | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
Buildings and investments are being delayed. | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
We've got another international organisation, the OECD, | :13:44. | :13:45. | |
telling us that British families will be poorer if we vote to leave. | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
Isn't this just diversionary tactics from the real | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
problems in the UK economy, which are around productivity, | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
our lack of manufacturing, around poor exports? | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
I'm the first to say there are some big issues we need to fix | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
But the biggest economic decision facing the country and everyone | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
watching this programme is the decision about | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
whether we remain in or leave the European Union. | :14:12. | :14:13. | |
Brandauer is so good at what it does, its components are found | :14:14. | :14:20. | |
in 85% of all the kettles in the world. | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
Its Chief Executive told me the referendum risk | :14:26. | :14:27. | |
He is looking outside the EU for new opportunities. | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
For the first time in the last month, I've had a customer ask me | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
what I think is going to happen on Brexit and, "What do you think | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
They are making a big decision over more business with Brandauer. | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
It is real, the uncertainty is real and it is being driven by Brexit. | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
George Osborne wants one message to come through, loud and clear, | :14:49. | :14:51. | |
That is that fears about the European Union referendum | :14:52. | :14:59. | |
are having a negative effect on the performance | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
He wants to repeat that message, time and again, repeat the warnings | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
of the International Monetary Fund, repeat the warnings of the Bank | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
of England, really turning the screw on those who believe that leaving | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
the European Union will be good for the economy. | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
For Mr Osborne's critics, such dire warnings were | :15:19. | :15:20. | |
Are they then saying that the fact that world growth forecasts have | :15:21. | :15:28. | |
been downgraded are also due to fears of Brexit? | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
You could say everything, the weather is down | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
What is true is that Mr Osborne knows he is in the political battle | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
of his career and tomorrow, a new report will say | :15:42. | :15:43. | |
that far from damaging the economy, Brexit could boost | :15:44. | :15:45. | |
A Labour MP at the centre of an anti-Semitism row has been | :15:46. | :15:56. | |
Naz Shah has apologised for remarks she made about Israel on social | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
David Cameron said the comments by the Bradford West MP | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
Our deputy political editor John Pienaar's report | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
Has anti-Jewish bigotry taken root in | :16:09. | :16:15. | |
For Naz Shah, beating George Galloway was tough. | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
Doing it as a Muslim woman in a Muslim area, | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
fighting old attitudes to a woman's proper place, maybe | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
And some old prejudices, like hostility towards | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
Naz Shah crossed a line into anti-Semitism a year | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
before on social media, saying Israel should be relocated to | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
America and even comparing Israel's treatment of the | :16:42. | :16:43. | |
Palestinians with Hitler's treatment of the Jews. | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
I accept and understand that the words I used caused upset | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
Too late - her offending remarks had already been | :16:54. | :17:03. | |
Frankly, how we have a Labour member of Parliament | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
with the Labour whip who | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
made remarks about the transportation of people from Israel | :17:11. | :17:12. | |
to America, and talked about a solution, | :17:13. | :17:14. | |
and is still in receipt of | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
the Labour whip is quite extraordinary. | :17:18. | :17:19. | |
The Labour leader was the true target. | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
He is now dogged by the charge he's done too little to | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
There has to be a suspension and an investigation | :17:26. | :17:34. | |
It is so serious and it does have such a knock-on effect on | :17:35. | :17:42. | |
people outside of Parliament, in the real world. | :17:43. | :17:43. | |
Labour may pride itself on being a party of tolerance but | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
accusations of anti-Semitism have clung to sections, including on the | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
hard left, who help provide Jeremy Corbyn's core support. | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
I know of lifelong Jewish members, including | :17:51. | :17:52. | |
some prominent names, who have told me they won't vote Labour again | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
For Jeremy Corbyn, turning that around won't be easy. | :17:56. | :18:02. | |
With just 100 days to go before the Rio Olympics, | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
British Cycling, one of our most successful sports, is in turmoil. | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
Shane Sutton, the team's technical director, | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
has resigned after allegations of discrimination, | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
including using offensive language to members of the para-cycling team. | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
That followed allegations of sexism by sprint cyclist, | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
That followed allegations of sexism by sprint cyclist | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
Jess Varnish, after she was dropped from the Olympic squad. | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
It is known as Britain's medal factory. | :18:31. | :18:33. | |
For almost a decade, cycling has been Team GB's most | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
successful Olympic sport, winning gold after gold | :18:37. | :18:38. | |
and producing a host of household names. | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
But the coach credited with much of that glory has | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
now thrown preparations for Rio 2016 into disarray. | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
Technical director Shane Sutton resigning over | :18:47. | :18:48. | |
allegations he made discriminatory comments | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
about a female rider and Paralympic team members. | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
In a statement, the Australian said... | :18:59. | :19:09. | |
This afternoon, the man who runs the sport told me there would be | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
Is this a governing body in crisis tonight? | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
Not at all but we need to learn from the experiences, what people are | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
That is why it is really, really important | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
The controversy began when sprint cyclist Jess Varnish claimed | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
Sutton had told her to "go and have a baby", | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
Then Darren Kenny, one of Britain's most decorated | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
Paralympians, alleged that Sutton referred | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
I have heard Shane use it, yeah, on numerous occasions. | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
I think for some people, they were quite offended by it. | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
For other people, it went over their head. | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
Today, a former BMX world champion told us he considered | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
suicide over the way he says he was treated by Sutton | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
when he was left out of Team GB's squad for the | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
There was one point when I felt like stepping out | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
into the road when I was at my mum's one time, and ending it all. | :20:10. | :20:12. | |
That man has got a lot to answer for. | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
I'm sure I'm not the only person he has affected. | :20:19. | :20:20. | |
But despite the mounting allegations, | :20:21. | :20:22. | |
Sutton had received the support of current team members like double | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
Olympic champion Laura Trott, who spoke of a positive working | :20:26. | :20:27. | |
In the high-pressure world of elite sport, with athletes | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
being pushed to their limits, emotions can run high. | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
But what has to be decided now is whether there | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
needs to be a change in culture here at British Cycling, an organisation | :20:38. | :20:40. | |
that receives more public funding than any other Olympic sport. | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
This morning, Team GB marked 100 days | :20:45. | :20:51. | |
until the Rio Games but the unveiling | :20:52. | :20:53. | |
of their official kit was somewhat overshadowed | :20:54. | :20:55. | |
Sutton's departure raises serious concerns about how | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
cycling's success has been managed and whether it will continue. | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
Donald Trump has said he would pursue an "America first | :21:03. | :21:04. | |
foreign policy" if elected President of the United States. | :21:05. | :21:11. | |
affairs, Mr Trump accused President Obama of a pursuing a "reckless | :21:12. | :21:13. | |
Our North America editor, Jon Sopel, joins me from Washington. | :21:14. | :21:25. | |
How different would his foreign policy be? Well, this was a very | :21:26. | :21:32. | |
different Donald Trump that we were presented with earlier on today. | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
Gone wild the bombast, he was reading from a carefully written | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
script, with autocue. That phrase, put America first, with of the NIC | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
isolation in America in the 1930s, he said he wanted Nato members to be | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
paying much more for defence, he said he wanted better trade deals, | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
he said he wanted to make friends with Russia and China to reduce | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
tensions, and he said he would go after so-called Islamic State. We | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
got to the end of the speech and we knew what he wanted, but Howell, | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
which was your original question, we are still unclear on. It was very | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
short on detail and specifics. And one other thing - his signature | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
foreign policy, that of building a wall between the US and Mexico, | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
there was not a single mention of it. Perhaps Donald Trump is starting | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
to row back from some of his more controversial positions. | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
The threat to elephants in Africa from the illegal trade in ivory | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
has never been greater, fuelled by corruption | :22:33. | :22:34. | |
Every year, between 30,000 and 40,000 elephants are being killed, | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
and there are thought to be only 400,000 left. | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
Most of the ivory is being trafficked out | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
In the first of a series of special reports, our Africa correspondent | :22:46. | :22:52. | |
Alastair Leithead in Kenya has been following the smuggling trail. | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
For how much longer will elephants roam beneath the slopes | :22:56. | :22:58. | |
These giants of the natural world are being poached so fast | :22:59. | :23:04. | |
that in a generation, most could be gone, | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
as the greed for ivory drives their slaughter across Africa. | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
The contents of this room are from thousands | :23:14. | :23:21. | |
An illegal ivory trade worth billions of dollars | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
We are close to the Tsavo national parks here in Kenya, | :23:26. | :23:41. | |
here, one of whom says he has a stash of ivory which he is trying | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
They took us to a secluded spot and asked for complete anonymity. | :23:45. | :23:51. | |
TRANSLATION: We choose an elephant by looking at the size and killing | :23:52. | :24:00. | |
TRANSLATION: We don't sell directly to the Chinese, | :24:01. | :24:11. | |
Kenya has reduced poaching recently, but Master says it's | :24:12. | :24:13. | |
And once we sell the tusks, we give them the money. | :24:14. | :24:28. | |
Do you feel any regret for the fact that you're killing these animals | :24:29. | :24:31. | |
that are endangered? I don't regret it. | :24:32. | :24:40. | |
not just from Kenya but from across Africa. | :24:41. | :24:43. | |
We spoke to a shipping agent who helped traffic tusks | :24:44. | :24:45. | |
So how much is it to smuggle a consignment of ivory? | :24:46. | :24:53. | |
TRANSLATION: $10,000 is the minimum, because it's not just one | :24:54. | :24:56. | |
There are security guys, officials, even in my company | :24:57. | :25:05. | |
But the authorities are fighting back. | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
Ivory dogs, trained to sniff out even the smallest bangle. | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
They recently found more than 64 kilos of tusks in air freight. | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
In countries where tourism funds conservation, there's more | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
But it's corruption, and those still buying ivory, | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
Now the latest in our series looking at elections across the UK. | :25:30. | :25:37. | |
In Northern Ireland, parties are campaigning to win seats | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
The Democratic Unionists have warned that if Sinn Fein were to overtake | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
them to become the biggest party, it would lead to former IRA man | :25:48. | :25:50. | |
Martin McGuinness becoming First Minister. | :25:51. | :25:52. | |
Here's our Ireland correspondent Chris Buckler. | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
The battle lines of elections in Northern Ireland were drawn a long | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
Yet power-sharing relies on traditional enemies working | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
World-renowned artist Colin Davidson painted this portrait | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
of the late Ian Paisley and he's working on another of Martin | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
McGuiness, to commemorate their time as First and Deputy First Ministers. | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
But the potential of a former IRA leader taking the top job is | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
worrying the party that Dr Paisley founded. | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
The choice is between myself or Martin McGuiness. | :26:30. | :26:31. | |
What I'm saying to people is, you should make the right choice and | :26:32. | :26:34. | |
make sure that I'm the First Minister. | :26:35. | :26:36. | |
But by throwing out that question, you put out the possibility of | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
Martin McGuiness being First Minister. | :26:41. | :26:41. | |
Would you serve in that executive? | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
That is a possibility that I haven't put across in my mind yet. | :26:46. | :26:48. | |
But it is a sign that the political landscape hasn't totally changed. | :26:49. | :26:51. | |
Despite working together in government, Republicans and | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
Unionists could not be called faithful friends. | :26:56. | :26:57. | |
There are some very positive, reasonable and | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
constructive politicians within the DUP but there are also | :27:02. | :27:03. | |
others within the DUP who are sectarian, and anti-Irish. | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
But only months after it looked like Stormont | :27:09. | :27:11. | |
was melting down, there is a certain youthful | :27:12. | :27:14. | |
optimism from the other nationalist party, the SDLP. | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
I don't believe there is any uncertainty in Stormont. | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
People have now accepted we are going to have an | :27:22. | :27:23. | |
What I want is one that actually works. | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
This isn't an election where the focus has been | :27:28. | :27:29. | |
Perhaps it is a sign that Northern Ireland's | :27:30. | :27:34. | |
The debate has instead been about education, the economy and the | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
The divides between the parties have been most obvious | :27:40. | :27:45. | |
on what are sometimes called the moral issues. | :27:46. | :27:47. | |
The Ulster Unionists are aiming to take votes from the | :27:48. | :27:49. | |
DUP by appearing more liberal on issues like abortion and same-sex | :27:50. | :27:53. | |
If you are against same-sex marriage, you are on the wrong | :27:54. | :27:58. | |
That doesn't mean you are wrong to hold that belief | :27:59. | :28:03. | |
but I do believe that time will show that | :28:04. | :28:05. | |
same-sex marriage will come to Northern Ireland. | :28:06. | :28:08. | |
The challenge for the Alliance, the only cross-community | :28:09. | :28:12. | |
party in the Stormont executive, is to get households to | :28:13. | :28:15. | |
break the pattern of voting for unionists or nationalists. | :28:16. | :28:19. | |
There's a consistent 10-11% of the population | :28:20. | :28:23. | |
that votes for parties other than unionists or nationalists. | :28:24. | :28:25. | |
When you look at the division this society has had | :28:26. | :28:30. | |
and compare with other societies around the world, that is actually | :28:31. | :28:33. | |
But the colours of orange and green that | :28:34. | :28:36. | |
represent unionism and nationalism still dominate politics here. | :28:37. | :28:40. | |
That means power-sharing requires some | :28:41. | :28:42. | |
Tens of thousands of people have gathered on the streets of Liverpool | :28:43. | :28:56. | |
to remember the 96 fans killed in the Hillsborough disaster. | :28:57. | :28:58. | |
Our correspondent Jeremy Cooke was there with the family | :28:59. | :29:05. | |
It was in the streets of Merseyside that the foundations were laid | :29:06. | :29:10. | |
In homes like Donna's, where she has campaigned for decades | :29:11. | :29:18. | |
for truth and justice in the name of her brother, Paul Carlile. | :29:19. | :29:21. | |
I could not stop fighting for Hillsborough and for | :29:22. | :29:26. | |
I just wanted everyone to know what they did. | :29:27. | :29:29. | |
The Hillsborough tragedy took lives and changed lives | :29:30. | :29:31. | |
All his life, Richard has known his mum as a campaigner. | :29:32. | :29:37. | |
Crying, she was happy, you could tell that there | :29:38. | :29:41. | |
was a whole range of emotions in her voice. | :29:42. | :29:44. | |
I was just like, as soon as she came in and seen me, | :29:45. | :29:47. | |
she just squeezed me, gave me the biggest hug | :29:48. | :29:49. | |
It was a line of questioning he was aware of... | :29:50. | :29:53. | |
The news keeps coming with the suspension of South | :29:54. | :29:58. | |
Yorkshire Chief Constable David Crompton. | :29:59. | :30:00. | |
That is what we have wanted, accountability. | :30:01. | :30:04. | |
The family is on the move, bound for the memorial service | :30:05. | :30:12. | |
Three generations, supporting each other. | :30:13. | :30:17. | |
I really feel like worried for them because I'm doing my communion | :30:18. | :30:20. | |
and I've been lighting candles for them, so they would actually, | :30:21. | :30:24. | |
Hopefully, please God, he can sleep in peace. | :30:25. | :30:35. | |
You are feeling happy and then you think, "Well, | :30:36. | :30:46. | |
This family is just one of so many touched by the Hillsborough tragedy. | :30:47. | :31:02. | |
And they stood, as they always have stood, shoulder to shoulder. | :31:03. | :31:06. | |
Feeling the support of their city, and finally, the comfort | :31:07. | :31:14. | |
Instead of deep sadness, like it normally is, it was pride. | :31:15. | :31:21. | |
I miss him terribly, you know, and that pain of losing him is never | :31:22. | :31:24. | |
But I am proud that we fought for him the way we did. | :31:25. | :31:33. | |
Well, that's it from us on the day that Liverpool honoured the 96 | :31:34. | :31:40. | |
Hillsborough victims and paid tribute to their families, | :31:41. | :31:46. | |
who have fought for truth and justice for so long. | :31:47. | :31:50. |
