Prison officers threaten to take control of running prisons

:00:00.:00:00.

unless the Government meets their demands for more staff.

:00:07.:00:10.

They say rising violence in jails in England and Wales means

:00:11.:00:13.

If absolutely necessary - it's illegal for us to do it -

:00:14.:00:19.

This is too serious a matter, with people's lives being put

:00:20.:00:23.

We'll be asking how far the Government will go

:00:24.:00:29.

President Obama tries to energise black support for Hillary Clinton,

amid signs that fewer African-Americans are voting early.

The Prime Minister launches a furious attack on Fifa

:00:39.:00:42.

after England and Scotland players are banned from wearing poppies.

:00:43.:00:46.

I think the stance that's been taken by Fifa is utterly outrageous.

The Prison Officers Association is warning the Government that it

:01:38.:01:41.

will take over control of the running of prisons

:01:42.:01:43.

unless ministers meet its demands to improve staffing

:01:44.:01:46.

They say conditions in jails in England and Wales

:01:47.:01:51.

are like a bloodbath, with increasing levels of violence.

:01:52.:01:54.

In an unprecedented move, the chair of the union says

:01:55.:01:58.

he is prepared to order strike action - which is illegal -

:01:59.:02:01.

It comes as the Government prepares to unveil its plans

:02:02.:02:06.

Here's our special correspondent, Ed Thomas.

:02:07.:02:17.

The pressure in our jails is building. In May, the BBC was given

:02:18.:02:28.

rare access to Wandsworth prison. There is one person under restraint

:02:29.:02:33.

there. The wing looks secure. To see life inside, the staff and inmates.

:02:34.:02:40.

Like a convicted murderer in the middle of this. He told us a lack of

:02:41.:02:49.

staff meant increasing violence. I've had murders in here left, right

:02:50.:02:53.

and centre. With the greatest respect, this place can't run on its

:02:54.:03:02.

underside. -- -- it can't run, it is unsafe. This story is shared in many

:03:03.:03:06.

jails. Latest figures show that in the last year there were 107

:03:07.:03:13.

self-inflicted deaths, up 13%. There were more than 23,000 assaults in

:03:14.:03:21.

jails, up 34%. And nearly 6000 attacks on staff, an increase of

:03:22.:03:26.

nearly 43% compared to the previous year. My members are on their knees.

:03:27.:03:31.

This is the chair of the prison officers association. Today he held

:03:32.:03:37.

talks with the Justice Secretary to demand change, and this is his only

:03:38.:03:43.

interview after that meeting. If we don't get the answers we want over

:03:44.:03:47.

the next week of talks, next Friday, we have given an ultimatum, we will

:03:48.:03:53.

take control of prisons throughout England and Wales, if necessary.

:03:54.:03:58.

That means prison officers abandoning the administration of

:03:59.:04:02.

justice and state governors and only listening to... You don't hear

:04:03.:04:08.

British soldiers saying they are going to do what they want in a

:04:09.:04:13.

conflict. Why are you saying the same? It's unprecedented but we have

:04:14.:04:18.

been left where it is a bloodbath in jails, 16 members of staff assaulted

:04:19.:04:24.

every day, 49 prisoners per day, suicide that uncontrollable, drug

:04:25.:04:28.

use, weapons, mobile phones. There is no safety for anyone. The union

:04:29.:04:33.

has called for thousands of extra staff and increased security. If

:04:34.:04:37.

not, the chair says he will call for a strike. If necessary, it's illegal

:04:38.:04:43.

for us to do it, but we would take strike action. It's too serious a

:04:44.:04:47.

matter with people's lives. If I was to have my own funds seized or

:04:48.:04:52.

putting Britain, that is a price worth paying. You would go to jail

:04:53.:04:58.

for that? Yes, over the violence they are facing. The government is

:04:59.:05:03.

committed to prison reform and funding to recruit an extra 400

:05:04.:05:07.

staff. Many people recognise there is a crisis inside our prisons. Are

:05:08.:05:11.

you using this situation to get more and more and more for your members?

:05:12.:05:17.

Absolutely not. At the end of the day, this is people's lives. There

:05:18.:05:22.

is no excuse for leaving those people vulnerable to be violent and

:05:23.:05:25.

squalid conditions everybody is having to work and live in. Tomorrow

:05:26.:05:31.

the Justice Secretary will reveal plans to reform prisons, but many

:05:32.:05:34.

say that urgent action is needed now for both staff and inmates.

:05:35.:05:36.

And our home affairs correspondent June Kelly joins us now.

:05:37.:05:38.

Strong words from the Prison Officers Association.

:05:39.:05:40.

Can and will the Government meet their demands?

:05:41.:05:46.

Unclear tonight, on the eve of this big announcement, but unlikely. This

:05:47.:05:53.

row looks set to overshadow... The plan was it would be Liz Truss's

:05:54.:05:59.

first big announcement as Justice Secretary. She has described it as

:06:00.:06:03.

the biggest overhaul of the prison system in England and Wales for a

:06:04.:06:06.

generation. Part of the focus tomorrow will be on whether she will

:06:07.:06:10.

continue the work of her predecessor, Michael Gove, who was

:06:11.:06:14.

seen as a reformer, and I think it's likely that some of the proposals

:06:15.:06:18.

first mooted in the David Cameron, Michael Gove Iraq, giving governors

:06:19.:06:23.

more control over their jails, having prison league tables, will be

:06:24.:06:27.

in there, but the big issue is staffing levels. What the prison

:06:28.:06:32.

officers association is it is all very well having long-term plans but

:06:33.:06:35.

you have to have more staff and you have to have them now. What both

:06:36.:06:40.

prison officers and governors will say is that it just isn't a question

:06:41.:06:45.

of recruiting staff but retaining them. The Ministry of Justice has to

:06:46.:06:48.

make the prison system a place where people want to work.

:06:49.:06:50.

President Obama has called on black voters to turn

:06:51.:06:53.

out for Hilary Clinton, just as they did for him,

:06:54.:06:55.

saying "the African American vote isn't as solid as it needs to be."

:06:56.:06:58.

It comes amid signs the Democrats are struggling to motivate

:06:59.:07:01.

African Americans to go to the polls, with turnout

:07:02.:07:04.

figures for early voting down on those from 2012.

:07:05.:07:08.

One place where those votes are critical is Florida,

:07:09.:07:11.

a key swing state that could decide the election.

:07:12.:07:15.

Our North America Editor Jon Sopel is there.

:07:16.:07:26.

We are in Orlando, where a Donald Trump rally has just come to an end.

:07:27.:07:32.

There is undoubtedly renewed buoyancy in his campaign as a result

:07:33.:07:36.

of the FBI intervention last Friday, which has seen a tightening of the

:07:37.:07:42.

opinion polls. There is also huge interviews yet among his supporters.

:07:43.:07:47.

The same cannot be said of Hillary Clinton, particularly among the

:07:48.:07:47.

African-American community. We're not telling

:07:48.:07:50.

you who to vote for. We're just telling you you've

:07:51.:07:53.

got to vote. This is public service radio

:07:54.:07:56.

with no axe to grind but, in the Clinton campaign,

:07:57.:07:59.

this is a growing headache. The number of African Americans

:08:00.:08:02.

voting early is way It seems like folks weren't into it

:08:03.:08:04.

like they were with the Obama presidency, at least

:08:05.:08:10.

African-Americans locally. I think the media has just been

:08:11.:08:15.

a big ball of confusion, At chef Eddie's restaurant

:08:16.:08:19.

in the mainly black Paramore district of Orlando, Hillary Clinton

:08:20.:08:28.

is the reluctant choice on the menu. There is criticism that her campaign

:08:29.:08:32.

has taken the black community for granted and hasn't

:08:33.:08:35.

put the resources in. However, in 2016, I wasn't really

:08:36.:08:39.

sure if I wanted to vote because I didn't really

:08:40.:08:45.

care for the Democrat, nor did I really care

:08:46.:08:48.

for the Republican. I wasn't as motivated to vote this

:08:49.:08:51.

year as I did the last two times. So Hillary Clinton is no Barack

:08:52.:08:56.

Obama? The difference is that Barack Obama

:08:57.:08:58.

was black and Hillary is white. And that explains the difference

:08:59.:09:09.

in enthusiasm? It's absolutely clear there isn't

:09:10.:09:13.

a passion for Hillary Clinton that there was for Barack Obama,

:09:14.:09:18.

and that's partly about how can you follow a black president

:09:19.:09:22.

and motivate people as much, And, in a tight race,

:09:23.:09:25.

not winning the African-American I hear a lot about the 2008 turnout

:09:26.:09:32.

and the response, for our first I don't know if we'll ever

:09:33.:09:38.

have the same excitement historically, for all that meant,

:09:39.:09:44.

but what I do know is there are a lot of people in central

:09:45.:09:48.

Florida and in the state of Florida working really hard to turn out

:09:49.:09:52.

the vote, and we just have to be vigilant and take absolutely

:09:53.:09:55.

nothing for granted. But, if the black vote is down,

:09:56.:10:00.

across the other side of Orlando in Kissimmee,

:10:01.:10:02.

where nearly a third of the population is Latino,

:10:03.:10:04.

turnout is at record levels. If she's going to win

:10:05.:10:07.

in Florida, it's these Donald Trump is spending

:10:08.:10:10.

a huge amount of time He's doing three rallies today

:10:11.:10:18.

and he's making overtures to groups As ever, Florida is the must-win

:10:19.:10:22.

state for both candidates, the biggest prize of all the swing

:10:23.:10:43.

states, the one that will make the most difference

:10:44.:10:47.

to who wins the White House. So why is it that a state

:10:48.:10:55.

like Florida can be the key Christian Fraser has been looking

:10:56.:10:58.

at the crucial states where the presidential race could be

:10:59.:11:03.

won or lost. Welcome to our virtual

:11:04.:11:09.

world of Congress. Beneath this great dome

:11:10.:11:12.

of Capitol Hill, we're going to try and bring a little more clarity

:11:13.:11:15.

to a race that has gripped us, confused us, perhaps

:11:16.:11:18.

even shocked us. Yet still, with less than a week

:11:19.:11:22.

to go to the vote, we can't be sure which of these two candidates

:11:23.:11:26.

will become the 45th President In fact, it is still possible that

:11:27.:11:28.

one of them wins the most votes Think of this as not one election,

:11:29.:11:34.

but as 51 mini elections. You'll see each of these states

:11:35.:11:41.

is allocated a fixed number of state electors, determined

:11:42.:11:44.

by the size of its population. Altogether, 538 electoral college

:11:45.:11:48.

votes. Obviously, it's these states

:11:49.:11:52.

with the biggest populations, with the most state electors,

:11:53.:11:58.

that become crucial. So California, for instance,

:11:59.:12:03.

were Hillary Clinton to win 50% of the vote plus one,

:12:04.:12:06.

and we expect her to do that, then all 55 votes

:12:07.:12:09.

would go Democrat blue. And then look how many other states

:12:10.:12:13.

Trump has to win to equal that. Now, in these final frenzied

:12:14.:12:18.

days of campaigning, the focus falls on the

:12:19.:12:20.

battleground states. There are up to 13 of them and some

:12:21.:12:23.

big ones among them, including that last one there,

:12:24.:12:27.

Ohio. Ohio has not backed a losing

presidential candidate since this Now, the national poll

:12:30.:12:34.

of polls has tightened, the gap has got closer

:12:35.:12:41.

in recent days. But really, it's the polling

:12:42.:12:44.

within those battleground If we colour them, as some polls

:12:45.:12:47.

project they will go today, then you will see nine go Democrat

:12:48.:12:52.

blue and four go red, including Ohio and currently

:12:53.:12:57.

Florida, though only by a whisker. There are around 320 million people

:12:58.:13:02.

in the United States. On our graphic, every one of these

:13:03.:13:08.

people represents 10 million voters. Now, we can lose 103 million,

the primaries, so we know they vote. Taking the figures from the last

:13:16.:13:21.

election, we expect another But that leaves some 90 million

:13:22.:13:24.

who never do and that's where the Trump campaign

:13:25.:13:30.

is pinning its hopes. We've seen here in the UK,

:13:31.:13:34.

with the Brexit result, that people who don't ordinarily

:13:35.:13:36.

vote can tip the balance And don't forget, they're also

on the race to the White House The Prime Minister has launched

:13:52.:14:01.

a furious attack on Fifa, football's world governing body,

:14:02.:14:09.

after it banned England and Scotland footballers from wearing poppies

:14:10.:14:12.

when they play a World Cup qualifier Theresa May called the decision

:14:13.:14:15.

"utterly outrageous". Fifa says its rules forbid political

:14:16.:14:21.

symbols on football shirts. But tonight the Football Association

:14:22.:14:25.

told the BBC it would defy the ban. Here's our sports

:14:26.:14:28.

correspondent, Richard Conway. The Football Association believe the

:14:29.:14:42.

president was set when England players displayed the poppy armbands

:14:43.:14:48.

in 2011. Ahead of games due to be played on or ahead of Armistice Day,

:14:49.:14:53.

England, Scotland and Wales all asked Fifa if they could wear the

:14:54.:14:58.

remembrance symbol, but the world governing body believes the poppy

:14:59.:15:01.

carried a political message and is contrary to their rules, a position

:15:02.:15:06.

which prompted a strong response today from the Prime Minister. I

:15:07.:15:11.

think the stance which has been taken by Fifa is utterly outrageous.

:15:12.:15:15.

Our football players want to recognise and respect those who have

:15:16.:15:21.

given their lives for our safety and security. I think it is absolutely

:15:22.:15:23.

right that they should be able do so. One leading Fifa official on a

:15:24.:15:30.

visit to London tonight insisted the rules would not be changed and

:15:31.:15:33.

England and Scotland risked being punished if they proceeded with

:15:34.:15:38.

their plans. Britain is not the only country that has known suffering

:15:39.:15:43.

from the result of war. Syria is an example. My own continent. It has

:15:44.:15:52.

been torn by war for years. And the only question is, why are we doing

:15:53.:15:59.

an exception for just one country, and not the rest of the world?

:16:00.:16:05.

Premier League teams are free to display the poppy, but national

:16:06.:16:10.

teams must abide by Fifa's rules. But tonight the FA told me they and

:16:11.:16:15.

their Scottish counterparts will defy Fifa. We believe Fifa are

:16:16.:16:21.

misinterpreting their law around what constitutes a political symbol.

:16:22.:16:25.

We don't believe the poppy is a political symbol and we think most

:16:26.:16:29.

reasonable people agree. We think they are misinterpreting. That

:16:30.:16:34.

position is backed by some fans. Are a lot of people in this country

:16:35.:16:40.

would say the same. Yeah, why not? Make the decision, be brave. It to

:16:41.:16:45.

support our war heroes who saved us and made us what we are today. I

:16:46.:16:48.

think it's ridiculous that they shouldn't be allowed to wear it. I'm

:16:49.:16:54.

not that fussed about it. If it's all about remembrance, surely the FA

:16:55.:16:58.

can find another way to market. There were hopes an amicable

:16:59.:17:03.

solution could be reached but, with all parties refusing to back down,

:17:04.:17:06.

it looks set to end in acrimony. The former owner of BHS,

:17:07.:17:09.

Sir Philip Green, has been sent a warning notice by the Pensions

:17:10.:17:13.

Regulator, which could see the billionaire being ordered to pay

:17:14.:17:16.

towards the company's pensions Tens of thousands of BHS pensioners

:17:17.:17:18.

are still waiting to find out the fate of their pensions

:17:19.:17:23.

after the company collapsed. Our business editor,

:17:24.:17:25.

Simon Jack, is here. Explain the significance

:17:26.:17:29.

of this move? Four-and-a-half months ago, Sir

:17:30.:17:40.

Phillip green said he would "sort" the pension deficit. It seems the

:17:41.:17:44.

regulator listening to these arguments has run out of patience

:17:45.:17:49.

and put him on warning. Saying we think we have enough of a case

:17:50.:17:55.

against you, companies controlled by his former wife and the BHS owner to

:17:56.:18:03.

cuff up money in a lump sum, a regular contributions or both. I

:18:04.:18:06.

have a response from Sir Philip saying, I have read the statement

:18:07.:18:11.

from the pension regulator. I provided the regulator with what I

:18:12.:18:18.

believed to be a creditable and substantial proposal. That would

:18:19.:18:25.

achieve a better outcome. The Pensions Regulator looked at the

:18:26.:18:27.

money he is putting in or the structure this would be in the

:18:28.:18:30.

future and decided neither of those is good enough. He put him on rng

:18:31.:18:35.

with a. What happens next is that all parties who have been served

:18:36.:18:40.

this notice, they can make their arguments next year so again into

:18:41.:18:44.

the future, an independent panel would make a determination on this

:18:45.:18:48.

who is right. That can be appealed. The pensioners are no clearer about

:18:49.:18:51.

whether they will get money. They are in the pension protection fund

:18:52.:18:56.

at the moment. They will get reduced benefits if Sir Philip or the other

:18:57.:19:02.

owners cough up. It's not clear they will get the money it pay go into

:19:03.:19:07.

the protection fund. We are not there yet. It's a major new

:19:08.:19:12.

escalation in this row. Simon Jack, thank you.

:19:13.:19:16.

A brief look at some of the day's other news stories.

:19:17.:19:19.

Police in Iowa say they have captured a man they were seeking

:19:20.:19:22.

in connection with the fatal shooting of two white

:19:23.:19:24.

The men were shot in their patrol cars in what police described

:19:25.:19:28.

A 46-year-old white man, Scott Michael Green,

:19:29.:19:31.

Two children and a man have been found dead in a house

:19:32.:19:38.

Police were called to the residence last night

:19:39.:19:42.

A woman was taken to hospital where she is in a stable condition.

:19:43.:19:46.

Detectives are not looking for anyone else in connection

:19:47.:19:49.

The former chair of the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse,

:19:50.:19:54.

Dame Lowell Goddard, has blamed media criticism

:19:55.:19:58.

and concerns about her performance for her resignation in August.

:19:59.:20:01.

In a memo to the Home Affairs Select Committee she said the pressure

:20:02.:20:04.

on her was relentless and resulted in three of her advisers

:20:05.:20:07.

Sir John Chilcot has told MPs that Tony Blair's "sheer pyschological

:20:08.:20:16.

dominance" over his Cabinet ministers played a key role

:20:17.:20:20.

Sir John also said that Mr Blair did long-term damage to trust

:20:21.:20:25.

in politics when he put forward a case for war that went

:20:26.:20:28.

"Woefully inadequate", that's how the Government's strategy

:20:29.:20:38.

to deal with air pollution in the UK was described in the High Court.

:20:39.:20:48.

Environmental campaigners today won their latest legal battle

:20:49.:20:50.

to force the Government to clean up Britain's air.

:20:51.:20:52.

Much of the pollution is because of illegal levels

:20:53.:20:54.

of nitrogen dioxide, largely emitted by diesel cars.

:20:55.:20:57.

Our science editor, David Shukman, has this report.

:20:58.:20:59.

This bus looks pretty clean until you view its exhaust

:21:00.:21:02.

through a special infra-red camera that detects pollution.

:21:03.:21:03.

The same with a car, dirty air is estimated to claim

:21:04.:21:06.

40,000 lives a year in Britain and, with scenes like this,

:21:07.:21:10.

an environmental group has persuaded the courts that Government

:21:11.:21:12.

I think today's judgment is a huge victory for everyone in the country

:21:13.:21:18.

The Government is left with very, very few excuses.

:21:19.:21:23.

It's got nowhere to hide, they must come up with a proper plan

:21:24.:21:26.

to achieve compliance with legal limits as soon as possible.

:21:27.:21:29.

From Cornwall to Scotland, pollution can be a problem.

:21:30.:21:32.

For years, with dozens of areas breaching European pollution limits,

:21:33.:21:40.

the Government had planned half a dozen clean air zones,

:21:41.:21:42.

limiting older diesel vehicles, but only from 2020.

:21:43.:21:47.

According to today's ruling, the Government plans for fighting

:21:48.:21:53.

pollution are too slow and don't go far enough.

:21:54.:21:55.

The judgment quotes from an internal Cabinet briefing document

:21:56.:22:01.

saying that, even by 2020, as many as 23 different parts

:22:02.:22:04.

of the country could still be in breach of safe pollution limits.

:22:05.:22:11.

This comes as medical evidence gets stronger.

:22:12.:22:14.

While the nose does trap some pollution, small particles can slip

:22:15.:22:16.

past and go on to damage the lungs and the heart, and the very smallest

:22:17.:22:20.

So researchers welcome today's ruling.

:22:21.:22:26.

This is, hopefully, going to affect the potential health

:22:27.:22:29.

impacts for thousands, tens of thousands of people,

:22:30.:22:31.

hundreds of thousands of people and, potentially, save lives ultimately.

:22:32.:22:38.

The plane rises over Heathrow and the pollution camera follows

:22:39.:22:40.

The Government said today that cleaning up the air

:22:41.:22:49.

is a priority but, crucially, it also said that it is does accept

:22:50.:22:52.

the court's judgment, so it'll have to come up

:22:53.:22:54.

The President of South Africa, Jacob Zuma, is facing growing calls

:22:55.:23:05.

to resign after a long awaited report found possible

:23:06.:23:08.

evidence of corruption at the top of his government.

:23:09.:23:12.

The report recommends that Mr Zuma sets up a judicial inquiry

:23:13.:23:15.

within weeks to look into alleged criminal activity.

:23:16.:23:20.

Today, police have fired water cannon at protestors who've been

:23:21.:23:22.

marching through the capital, Pretoria.

:23:23.:23:25.

Our correspondent, Milton Nkosi, reports.

:23:26.:23:29.

The pressure had been building since daybreak,

:23:30.:23:33.

people from different political parties gathered in the country's

:23:34.:23:36.

capital, Pretoria, calling for Mr Zuma to resign

:23:37.:23:40.

and for the much delayed report on corruption to be released.

:23:41.:23:44.

Thousands of South Africans have turned out on the streets,

:23:45.:23:49.

they are calling for President Zuma to step down.

:23:50.:23:53.

It is because of the corruption allegations that have dogged

:23:54.:24:01.

In a packed court room, the judge gave the people

:24:02.:24:07.

The public protector is ordered to publish the report forthwith.

:24:08.:24:15.

The corruption watchdog's report said the President should establish

:24:16.:24:17.

a commission of inquiry within 30 days.

:24:18.:24:21.

It also raised serious concerns that President Jacob Zuma allowed

:24:22.:24:24.

a family of businessmen to influence the selection of senior

:24:25.:24:27.

This was exactly the judgment the opposition parties

:24:28.:24:35.

It's a historic day for the people of this country.

:24:36.:24:40.

It's a significant day because today what has happened is that

:24:41.:24:44.

South Africans have reclaimed the constitution.

:24:45.:24:48.

It was not just Mr Zuma's political enemies, civil society groups,

:24:49.:24:51.

including some from Mr Zuma's own governing ANC and,

:24:52.:24:55.

for the first time, from the Nelson Mandela's

:24:56.:24:58.

We've told him that we believe that he's no longer deserving

:24:59.:25:11.

This report is not good for President Zuma, but it is not

:25:12.:25:16.

as damning as some in the opposition had hoped when they came

:25:17.:25:20.

Now, attention will be turned to Jacob Zuma and ANC to see

:25:21.:25:26.

Leicester City knew another victory would continue their remarkable

fairy tale, beating Copenhagen would give them qualification

a classic manoeuvre. Too quick for the defender, not nearly enough for

the referee to give a penalty. You see his point. 0-30. Another
