:00:00. > :00:07.Tonight at ten, how shambolic policing played its part

:00:08. > :00:13.in the outcome of the Tunisian beach attack.

:00:14. > :00:16.In June 2015, an Islamist gunman killed 30 British

:00:17. > :00:23.Today the families endorsed the outcome of the inquests.

:00:24. > :00:29.It's particularly heartbreaking to think that if the police

:00:30. > :00:31.had have been called, if the national guard

:00:32. > :00:33.had got there sooner, then lives could have

:00:34. > :00:39.The families of the victims have decided to sue the travel company

:00:40. > :00:44.for not giving sufficient warning of the risks of going to Tunisia.

:00:45. > :00:47.If the tour operator, TUI Thomson, had played their part

:00:48. > :00:51.and said, "Look, you know, there's a risk here,"

:00:52. > :00:55.I firmly believe they'd never have gone.

:00:56. > :00:58.We'll have the reaction to the coroner's finding

:00:59. > :01:03.of unlawful killing, as the Tunisian authorities

:01:04. > :01:05.say security has been transformed since the attack.

:01:06. > :01:08.Also tonigh, a pension deal for former BHS workers -

:01:09. > :01:10.Sir Philip Green will contribute ?363 million

:01:11. > :01:16.A senior police officer suggests that some men who view

:01:17. > :01:22.child pornography should be rehabilitated, not prosecuted.

:01:23. > :01:25.A special report on poverty in America, as President Trump

:01:26. > :01:30.prepares to set out his vision for the next four years.

:01:31. > :01:32.And paying for the privilege - there'll be two fee-paying

:01:33. > :01:36.passengers on a flight into space next year.

:01:37. > :01:40.Coming up in Sportsday on BBC News, the Championship title race is

:01:41. > :01:42.hotting up - Brighton and Newcastle were facing each other

:01:43. > :02:07.with a point separating the top two at the start of the evening.

:02:08. > :02:13.who were shot dead by a jihadist militant in Tunisia

:02:14. > :02:16.have announced that they will sue the tour operator TUI.

:02:17. > :02:18.Relatives believe the company did not do enough

:02:19. > :02:21.to warn people about the dangers in Tunisia.

:02:22. > :02:23.At the end of the inquests today, the coroner refused

:02:24. > :02:26.to rule that the company had shown neglect,

:02:27. > :02:31.but he was highly critical of the response of the Tunisian police,

:02:32. > :02:36.as our correspondent Daniela Relph reports.

:02:37. > :02:38.These are the bereaved - for more than a month,

:02:39. > :02:43.they have listened to chilling details of multiple murder.

:02:44. > :02:46.Many of them witnessed their loved ones being killed.

:02:47. > :02:52.The end of this part of the legal process was an important moment.

:02:53. > :02:54.The inquests were about those who tragically lost their lives.

:02:55. > :02:57.They must never be forgotten, and their families hope

:02:58. > :03:03.that no-one else will ever have to suffer the same fate in future.

:03:04. > :03:06.The coroner ruled the 30 British tourists who died that day

:03:07. > :03:12.The inquest has established the facts

:03:13. > :03:18.Holiday-makers here react to the first sounds of shooting.

:03:19. > :03:21.These were people running for their lives.

:03:22. > :03:26.On the beach was the gunman, Seifeddine Rezgui.

:03:27. > :03:28.His first targets had been holiday-makers

:03:29. > :03:33.He then moved to the pool and terrace area,

:03:34. > :03:41.Inside the hotel, he roamed around looking for victims.

:03:42. > :03:44.The court was told that he killed for 16 minutes.

:03:45. > :03:51.One of the marine guard fainted in shock.

:03:52. > :03:57.The coroner today described the emergency response as,

:03:58. > :04:02."At its best shambolic, at its worst cowardly."

:04:03. > :04:06.This animation shows where each person died.

:04:07. > :04:11.In just about every main area of the hotel, somebody was killed.

:04:12. > :04:16.The families believe the travel company TUI was negligent,

:04:17. > :04:19.but the coroner rejected this, saying there were too many what-ifs

:04:20. > :04:22.and no single thing that could have prevented the attack.

:04:23. > :04:26.Judge Nicholas Lorraine Smith told the families, "The simple but tragic

:04:27. > :04:31.truth in this case is that a gunman armed with a gun and grenades

:04:32. > :04:36.went to that hotel intending to kill as many tourists as he could."

:04:37. > :04:39.Ray and Angie Fisher were two of the victims,

:04:40. > :04:46.killed alongside each other on the beach.

:04:47. > :04:48.Their family believe TUI should have warned

:04:49. > :04:52.If they'd have known the reality, and if the tour operator,

:04:53. > :04:55.TUI Thompson, had played their part and actually said, "Look, you know,

:04:56. > :04:58.there is a risk here," and directed them to that,

:04:59. > :05:02.I firmly believe they'd never have gone.

:05:03. > :05:06.The tour company has always denied it was to blame.

:05:07. > :05:15.and we will need to continue to do so.

:05:16. > :05:17.This terrorist incident left its mark on all of us,

:05:18. > :05:19.and its impact will always be remembered.

:05:20. > :05:24.will now pursue a civil lawsuit against TUI.

:05:25. > :05:26.The coroner will also look at whether he can make any

:05:27. > :05:29.recommendations to help prevent such a massacre ever happening again.

:05:30. > :05:32.As the inquest closed, the coroner told the families

:05:33. > :05:39.of which their loved ones would be proud.

:05:40. > :05:48.Daniela Relph, BBC News, at the Royal Courts of Justice.

:05:49. > :05:51.A total of 38 people were killed on the day in June 2015,

:05:52. > :05:55.The families who attended the inquests

:05:56. > :05:58.have been describing having to relive the events in Sousse.

:05:59. > :06:02.Suzanne Evans lost her son, brother and father.

:06:03. > :06:05.And Cheryl Stollery's husband was killed in the hotel car park.

:06:06. > :06:09.They've been speaking to our correspondent Sarah Campbell.

:06:10. > :06:17.And I say, "Well, you know, I'm still a mum,"

:06:18. > :06:20.and I'm thankful of that, that I've still got Owen.

:06:21. > :06:24.The day after this photograph was taken, Suzanne's father Pat,

:06:25. > :06:27.eldest son Joel and her brother Adrian were killed.

:06:28. > :06:31.Only Owen, on the left of the picture, survived.

:06:32. > :06:39.The coroner mentioned your youngest son, Owen,

:06:40. > :06:43.and his extraordinary courage - how is he coping?

:06:44. > :06:48.He's doing well, he's an inspiration to us all.

:06:49. > :06:52.I often say if Owen can get up and go to school

:06:53. > :06:56.then I haven't got any reason why I can't.

:06:57. > :07:03.Cheryl Stollery not only has the loss of her husband John

:07:04. > :07:07.to cope with, but the memories of that day.

:07:08. > :07:10.John was shot as both ran from the gunman.

:07:11. > :07:12.My thought at the time was, "I'm going to die,"

:07:13. > :07:18.We were trying to seek refuge, we didn't know where to go,

:07:19. > :07:25.no-one was directing us anywhere, it was just a free-for-all.

:07:26. > :07:31.John was robbed of the respect and dignity by the way he was killed.

:07:32. > :07:34.It's particularly heartbreaking to think that if the police

:07:35. > :07:40.had been called, if the national guard had got there sooner,

:07:41. > :07:45.then lives could have or probably would have been saved.

:07:46. > :07:52.Can anything positive come out of what happened on June 26th 2015?

:07:53. > :08:00.We can never bring the people, those 30 people, back.

:08:01. > :08:05.What we have to do is learn to live with that, to try and move on.

:08:06. > :08:08.There's always going to be people out there

:08:09. > :08:13.who want to impose their will, their beliefs on others.

:08:14. > :08:19.We need to get better at protecting, and looking at ways

:08:20. > :08:24.in which to safeguard, and we can only do that

:08:25. > :08:28.if all the people involved start communicating

:08:29. > :08:30.and working far more closely in partnership.

:08:31. > :08:41.And I will do all I can to try and do my part to make a difference.

:08:42. > :08:44.That was Cheryl Stollery ending that report by Sarah Campbell.

:08:45. > :08:46.Today, the Tunisian authorities have called on the Foreign Office

:08:47. > :08:49.insisting that major security improvements have taken place,

:08:50. > :08:53.and that Tunisia is as safe as many European countries.

:08:54. > :08:57.The number of British visitors to Tunisia

:08:58. > :08:59.has dropped by 90% since the attack.

:09:00. > :09:09.is in the resort of Sousse tonight with the latest.

:09:10. > :09:16.Well, tonight, even now on an empty beach, there are police nearby, but

:09:17. > :09:21.many of the hotels and restaurants in Sousse are closed, or half empty,

:09:22. > :09:24.a legacy of the devastating attack on the beach. Today the Tunisian

:09:25. > :09:30.authorities admitted that the police were not properly prepared, but they

:09:31. > :09:34.said this is a young democracy, a country in transition that needs

:09:35. > :09:38.support. Local people continue to say they are sorry for the loss of

:09:39. > :09:40.British life, and the dead will never be forgotten, but they hope

:09:41. > :09:42.that Tunisia can move on. A new vigilance that was utterly

:09:43. > :09:49.lacking on the day of the attack. Now, permanent checkpoints

:09:50. > :09:52.and patrols by the police The message is clear -

:09:53. > :10:01."You are safe, it's a new Tunisia." Ministers are looking

:10:02. > :10:03.to brighter days, after tourism was gravely wounded

:10:04. > :10:11.in the carnage on the beach. We improve a lot our security,

:10:12. > :10:14.and we think that tourism will be coming back

:10:15. > :10:18.in the next few months now. We have good indications for

:10:19. > :10:21.summer 2017, and we'd be very happy to see again British coming

:10:22. > :10:27.back to Tunisia. Do you think it's 100% safe?

:10:28. > :10:31.Can you say that? Metal detectors are now standard

:10:32. > :10:41.when you enter hotels - even if you own them,

:10:42. > :10:44.like Mohammed Becheur. where the British holiday-makers

:10:45. > :10:55.were killed on June 26th 2015. He admits security in Tunisia should

:10:56. > :10:58.have been tightened that March, after an attack on tourists

:10:59. > :11:00.in the Bardo Museum. It should have been

:11:01. > :11:02.stricter and stronger. to be honest with you,

:11:03. > :11:07.it should have been. But there is a before 26th June

:11:08. > :11:11.2015, and there is an after - this is not the same

:11:12. > :11:16.country any more. This was the picture

:11:17. > :11:20.when terror came to the beach. Locals say the lone gunman

:11:21. > :11:27.was on the loose for 40 minutes. condemnation of the glaring absence

:11:28. > :11:36.of the security forces. When tourists were being slaughtered

:11:37. > :11:39.here on the sands, police could and should have

:11:40. > :11:42.made an effective response, He said police could have arrived

:11:43. > :11:47.here in minutes with everything they needed

:11:48. > :11:50.to confront the gunman. Instead, they deliberately

:11:51. > :11:54.delayed their arrival. The first officer on the scene

:11:55. > :11:57.stayed outside the main gate that the police

:11:58. > :12:10.were nowhere to be seen. he was on the beach

:12:11. > :12:15.selling rides on jetskis. Here he is chasing the killer,

:12:16. > :12:22.armed only with two ashtrays, TRANSLATION: No-one came, apart

:12:23. > :12:31.from the two guards who did nothing. Then when we ran along

:12:32. > :12:35.the beach over there, there were three national guard

:12:36. > :12:37.boats in the sea. They didn't come until afterwards,

:12:38. > :12:44.when he was killed. At the Riu Imperial Hotel, where

:12:45. > :12:49.the gunman claimed so many lives, they are getting ready

:12:50. > :12:51.to reopen in May, hoping tourists will return

:12:52. > :12:59.to the golden sands. Sunbathers now have

:13:00. > :13:01.company on the beach - for 30 Britons robbed

:13:02. > :13:08.of life on this shore. The day's other main story

:13:09. > :13:16.is that the former owner of BHS, Sir Philip Green,

:13:17. > :13:19.has agreed to pay ?363 million to help fund the gap

:13:20. > :13:21.in the company's pension scheme. The collapse of BHS last year

:13:22. > :13:25.left 19,000 former staff facing the loss of their pensions,

:13:26. > :13:28.and Sir Philip was heavily criticised for his management

:13:29. > :13:30.of the company while the pension deficit

:13:31. > :13:34.grew significantly. Our business editor, Simon Jack,

:13:35. > :13:37.has more details. Last summer, Sir Philip Green

:13:38. > :13:42.made the BHS pensioners a promise. We will sort it,

:13:43. > :13:45.we will find a solution, and I want to give an assurance

:13:46. > :13:49.to the 20,000 pensioners, um, What he was promising to sort

:13:50. > :13:55.was leaving thousands of pensioners short-changed after BHS collapsed,

:13:56. > :13:59.having been sold by Sir Philip a year earlier to a twice-bankrupt

:14:00. > :14:05.retailing novice for just ?1. He has agreed to pay ?363 million

:14:06. > :14:09.of his own money estimated on some measures

:14:10. > :14:17.to be ?571 million deep. So this settlement

:14:18. > :14:19.is not enough to give 19,000 pensioners

:14:20. > :14:21.their full entitlement, but it's better than they would have

:14:22. > :14:24.got in the industry rescue fund. The ordinary members

:14:25. > :14:26.of the pension scheme, there are 19,000, 20,000 of them,

:14:27. > :14:28.do OK out of this, They're slightly better off

:14:29. > :14:34.than they would be by staying in the Pension Protection Fund,

:14:35. > :14:39.but it's at the margin. Anne Bostock worked

:14:40. > :14:42.at BHS for 42 years. but she thinks it could have been

:14:43. > :14:46.sorted out much sooner. I think he should have

:14:47. > :14:51.done it straightaway. He should have been,

:14:52. > :14:53.you know, no questions asked, "I've been found out,

:14:54. > :14:58.I'll sort it." That dark stain you can see

:14:59. > :15:01.up there is all that is left of BHS's flagship store

:15:02. > :15:04.here on Oxford Street, but the debate about the pensions

:15:05. > :15:07.mess left behind, the corporate culture that allowed it

:15:08. > :15:10.all to happen, and Sir Philip Green's

:15:11. > :15:13.behaviour has raged on. Now, he'll be hoping this settlement

:15:14. > :15:16.puts that all behind him. Others will see today

:15:17. > :15:19.as a very significant Sir Philip was vilified

:15:20. > :15:26.by the public and politicians who saw him as a mascot

:15:27. > :15:29.for corporate greed. Today his critic in chief issued

:15:30. > :15:33.this grudging acknowledgement. in getting justice for pensioners

:15:34. > :15:40.and workers at BHS. Pensioners have got a better deal

:15:41. > :15:43.than they would have done - they haven't got everything -

:15:44. > :15:46.but there's a long way to go in the inquiries before

:15:47. > :15:48.Sir Philip Green This settlement was voluntary,

:15:49. > :15:54.but he was being pursued vigorously by regulators,

:15:55. > :15:58.who will now stand down. 363 million is just over

:15:59. > :16:02.10% of his net worth - for his reputation

:16:03. > :16:07.and his knighthood. Whether he can keep either

:16:08. > :16:20.is still not, in his words, sorted. Simon is with me. Sir Philip Green

:16:21. > :16:24.has been vilified for months. Are people today prepared, even

:16:25. > :16:28.grudgingly, to give him credit for this? A little bit of credit. He has

:16:29. > :16:30.always said he would do something to help the pensioners who were

:16:31. > :16:35.shortchanged when the company collapsed. He has done that. He's

:16:36. > :16:41.improved it a bit. The real winners here will be the highly paid staff,

:16:42. > :16:47.his lieutenants back in the day who would have seen their pensions

:16:48. > :16:51.capped at ?30,000. That will no longer apply it is not going into

:16:52. > :16:56.the pension protection fund. The regulator will see it as feather in

:16:57. > :17:05.their cap. They are establishing a precedent to go after a rich former

:17:06. > :17:09.owner to make good of shortchanged promiseses on the pension front. We

:17:10. > :17:13.had advisers on this deal waving through what everyone realised was a

:17:14. > :17:17.doomed transaction to sell it, it will be interesting to see what

:17:18. > :17:22.lessons the Government learns. They are currently drafting proposals on

:17:23. > :17:26.changing the way companies around corporate governance rules. It's

:17:27. > :17:34.interesting to see how many lessons they will learn when they draft

:17:35. > :17:36.those proposals in March. Thank you. Simon Jack there, our Business

:17:37. > :17:38.Editor. A brief look at some of the day's

:17:39. > :17:41.other other news stories. A 21-year-old man from Cardiff has

:17:42. > :17:44.been jailed for life for stabbing his former girlfriend

:17:45. > :17:46.and her partner to death. Andrew Saunders launched the attack

:17:47. > :17:49.early one morning in September last year outside a city centre store

:17:50. > :17:51.where the couple worked. He was said to have spent weeks

:17:52. > :17:54.planning the murders. Staff from Southern Rail,

:17:55. > :17:55.Arriva Rail North and Merseyrail are expected to go on strike

:17:56. > :17:59.on the same day, March 13th, in a dispute over the future

:18:00. > :18:01.of guards on trains. The RMT union opposes

:18:02. > :18:03.plans to introduce Union officials say the move will

:18:04. > :18:08.make services potentially dangerous. In Malaysia, two women are due

:18:09. > :18:11.in court tomorrow to be charged with the murder of the half-brother

:18:12. > :18:15.of North Korea's leader. The women allegedly smeared a deadly

:18:16. > :18:18.chemical over Kim Jong-nam's face They could face the death

:18:19. > :18:28.penalty if convicted. The senior police officer,

:18:29. > :18:30.who takes the lead on issues of child protection,

:18:31. > :18:32.has suggested that people caught viewing indecent images of children

:18:33. > :18:34.should not always face were overwhelmed by

:18:35. > :19:00.the scale of the problem and he said police should focus

:19:01. > :19:03.on the most dangerous paedophiles. Mr Bailey has been speaking

:19:04. > :19:05.to our home editor, Mark Easton. Saying the unsayable,

:19:06. > :19:07.the Chief Constable who believes paedophiles who view images of child

:19:08. > :19:10.sexual abuse should not Simon Bailey argues,

:19:11. > :19:12.with resources stretched, those deemed to pose a very low-risk

:19:13. > :19:15.of physically abusing children might simply be arrested,

:19:16. > :19:17.monitored and rehabilitated rather We are arresting 400 men every month

:19:18. > :19:20.for viewing indecent We are safeguarding 500

:19:21. > :19:23.children every single month, but we are dealing with the tip

:19:24. > :19:26.of the iceberg. The public will say

:19:27. > :19:27.it's not robust enough. If this is the tip of the iceberg,

:19:28. > :19:30.let's get the iceberg? Right, but I can't -

:19:31. > :19:33.I don't have the resources to get What I'm advocating is a proposal

:19:34. > :19:37.that still manages the risk, Police chiefs fear new and

:19:38. > :19:40.historical child abuse cases 70,000 investigations in a single

:19:41. > :19:44.year, an estimated annual policing cost of ?1 billion and even then

:19:45. > :19:46.just touching the surface, with analysis suggesting half

:19:47. > :19:49.a million people in England and Wales have illegally viewed

:19:50. > :19:56.images of child sexual abuse. How can you be sure that somebody

:19:57. > :19:59.who is at home looking at vile pictures of child abuse is not,

:20:00. > :20:02.the next day, going to go And I can't be

:20:03. > :20:05.absolutely sure, but... Well then, arrest

:20:06. > :20:06.them, deal with them? As I've demonstrated,

:20:07. > :20:10.400 every month is more than any other law enforcement

:20:11. > :20:13.agency is doing, I believe, I have to balance our resources

:20:14. > :20:20.against the whole of the risk. Police in Sussex already visit some

:20:26. > :20:31.outrageous to even suggest such I think it was an incredibly

:20:32. > :20:41.unhelpful, I would go as far as to say, almost dangerous thing

:20:42. > :20:44.to say, that people who abuse children or who view images and thus

:21:05. > :21:08.how huge a problem the sexual abuse of children has been

:21:44. > :21:46.Donald Trump will address members of Congress for the first time

:21:47. > :21:49.since he became President, an event broadcast in prime-time,

:21:50. > :21:51.when he's expected to discuss some of the challenges facing

:21:52. > :21:54.his new administration. He came to power promising

:21:55. > :22:00.to repair what he called the "carnage" in America -

:22:01. > :22:05.crime, drugs, gangs and poverty. Our international correspondent,

:22:06. > :22:07.Ian Pannell, reports where a quarter of the population

:22:08. > :22:10.lives in poverty, according to official figures, to assess

:22:11. > :22:14.the scale of the challenge. Say hello to Jackson,

:22:15. > :22:16.a citizen of the wealthiest country the world has ever known,

:22:17. > :22:22.and yet he's clothed in handouts. They have no home of their own

:22:23. > :22:28.and every morning they come to the Manor House charity

:22:29. > :22:31.where the poor of Baltimore meet for a little food,

:22:32. > :22:33.warmth and compassion. What is your message

:22:34. > :22:35.to President Trump? Instead of critiquing

:22:36. > :22:41.us, come help us and you will see we need

:22:42. > :22:47.help - bad. Like much of America,

:22:48. > :22:51.this is a story of two worlds. Baltimore is actually something

:22:52. > :22:53.of a boom town these days, but it doesn't feel like it in many

:22:54. > :22:57.parts of the city. In this economy, there

:22:58. > :23:01.is no trickle down. Baltimore was even more violent

:23:02. > :23:07.than Chicago last year, For some of its residents,

:23:08. > :23:15.this is a city where selling your body or selling drugs

:23:16. > :23:20.is the only job available. If you want to know

:23:21. > :23:22.what poverty in America looks Incredibly, this entire block

:23:23. > :23:26.here is pretty much made up Incredibly, some people are still

:23:27. > :23:36.living in between this, though. Under President Obama poverty grew

:23:37. > :23:38.in America and President Trump says He's going to deal what he calls

:23:39. > :23:43.the "carnage" in America of crime, of drugs, of gangs, of violence

:23:44. > :23:47.and of poverty. Well, there are few places better

:23:48. > :23:59.to try and do that than Baltimore. Marcus Allsop has lived here for 40

:24:00. > :24:03.years, he repairs the city's homes, an eyewitness to the worst Baltimore

:24:04. > :24:05.has to offer. The poor living are in the single

:24:06. > :24:08.houses, the real houses in Baltimore city where they're generally rat

:24:09. > :24:10.invested regardless of what you do Roaches, mice, I mean,

:24:11. > :24:15.an epidemic in bed bugs. I mean, the neighbourhoods

:24:16. > :24:17.are falling apart, not because the people are bad people,

:24:18. > :24:22.we're underpaid, undereducated and so many of us have been living

:24:23. > :24:26.like this for the second and third generation until we don't

:24:27. > :24:28.even know how to change. This is where it resides,

:24:29. > :24:45.on a bleak row of abandoned homes. This is the end of the line

:24:46. > :24:48.for Americans gripped by poverty. Here we met the last family

:24:49. > :24:51.living on the block. Three generations of the Stewart

:24:52. > :24:53.family are crammed in here. They're months behind on the rent,

:24:54. > :24:56.unpaid bills are piling up. Not surprising, when they have just

:24:57. > :25:03.$30 a day to survive. I love you, be careful.

:25:04. > :25:07.Have a good day. They've been evicted before,

:25:08. > :25:09.forced to live in one of Baltimore's It hurts, it hurts that they have

:25:10. > :25:15.to stay wrapped up in blankets every They don't want to get out

:25:16. > :25:19.of bed because there's no They get bullied in

:25:20. > :25:24.school because of it. They got to where they didn't even

:25:25. > :25:33.want to show their faces outside, but we had no choice but to live

:25:34. > :25:40.there because of the economy. I'm struggling for seven

:25:41. > :25:45.years, seven, hard years. What pressure does that put

:25:46. > :25:48.on your relationship together? Oh, we argue and fight

:25:49. > :25:50.all the time, all the time. I love this woman to death,

:25:51. > :25:55.she's my best friend, but to see her go through the things

:25:56. > :25:58.she goes through, it hurts me. For so many people, this is no

:25:59. > :26:10.longer a land of opportunity, The children who clamour for charity

:26:11. > :26:17.handouts have no American dream. It will be perhaps the greatest

:26:18. > :26:20.challenge for the new President. So ahead of the President's address,

:26:21. > :26:45.let's join our North America editor, The inauguration address was notable

:26:46. > :26:49.for its bleakness of its vision, the talk of carnage. Are you expecting

:26:50. > :26:54.the same tonight? No, I don't think we will hear the word of carnage at

:26:55. > :26:57.all it will be optimistic, talking about the renewal of the American

:26:58. > :27:01.spirit and what can be done when the American people come together. It

:27:02. > :27:05.will be an appeal for unity as well. Conciliatory in tone. We know the

:27:06. > :27:11.things that Donald Trump wants to do. He was to massively increase

:27:12. > :27:13.defence spending. He wants to preserve Medicare policies and

:27:14. > :27:17.social security payments for the elderly. What we don't know what is

:27:18. > :27:21.on the other side of that sheet, where will the axe fall? What are

:27:22. > :27:24.the things he is going to cut? He's not going to get the support of

:27:25. > :27:28.Republicans if they sense that the deficit is going to increase. That

:27:29. > :27:33.said, Donald Trump says the way you do this is you r rev up the economy

:27:34. > :27:37.and increase growth. He wants to put in place the policies that will

:27:38. > :27:41.allow that to happen. There are all sorts of things where he has big

:27:42. > :27:45.difficulties. He wants to cut the Tate Department budget. Over 100

:27:46. > :27:52.Generals said, don't do that, you can't afford to do that. Obamacare,

:27:53. > :27:55.the affordable Care Actment candidate Trump said it's the

:27:56. > :28:01.easiest thing to replace it and make it a lot cheaper. President Trump

:28:02. > :28:03.last night admitted it's turning out to be fiendishly complicated.

:28:04. > :28:07.Withhold knew that? One other thing, Huw, it has been a month which has

:28:08. > :28:13.been shambolic at times. What he needs to do is that he can turn

:28:14. > :28:18.chaos into accomplishment. Jon, once again, thank you very.

:28:19. > :28:19.Much. Jon Sopel there on Capitol Hill, ahead of that speech by the

:28:20. > :28:24.President. Two amateur treasure hunters have

:28:25. > :28:27.discovered jewellery in a field in Staffordshire which could be

:28:28. > :28:29.the oldest Iron Age gold The three necklaces

:28:30. > :28:33.and a bracelet are believed to be The metal detectorists made

:28:34. > :28:39.the discovery last December. The British Museum has said the find

:28:40. > :28:46.is of "international importance." The US aerospace company, SpaceX,

:28:47. > :28:48.has announced plans to fly two fee-paying passengers

:28:49. > :28:51.around the moon. The mission, planned

:28:52. > :28:53.for the middle of 2018, will be the first manned flight

:28:54. > :28:57.into deep space for over 40 years, although it will not

:28:58. > :28:59.involve a lunar landing. Our science editor,

:29:00. > :29:02.David Shukman, reports. A SpaceX promotion,

:29:03. > :29:06.bold and often boastful, this young company knows how

:29:07. > :29:10.to whip up excitement. The rocket is the Falcon Heavy,

:29:11. > :29:14.it's yet to be launched, this is an animation,

:29:15. > :29:16.but already two tourists are promised seats on it to fly

:29:17. > :29:18.around the moon as early ARCHIVE: Houston, this is America,

:29:19. > :29:22.you can breathe easier... Not since the last Apollo mission,

:29:23. > :29:26.back in 1972, have any humans flown The tourists will not be landing

:29:27. > :29:32.on it, but if their trip happens, they'll get amazing views and space

:29:33. > :29:37.scientists say this is plausible. We are really now entering

:29:38. > :29:40.the era where space Maybe not for another 10, 15,

:29:41. > :29:49.20 years for ordinary people to be able to afford it,

:29:50. > :29:52.it will be the playground The man behind SpaceX

:29:53. > :29:59.is Elon Musk and when I met him, he spelled out a startling vision

:30:00. > :30:02.of travel beyond earth. I think we're really entering

:30:03. > :30:05.a new era of space travel There's a history of SpaceX

:30:06. > :30:11.promises running late, 10 days ago, it landed

:30:12. > :30:15.a huge rocket, significant because reusing spacecraft

:30:16. > :30:19.will make launches cheaper. Last year, one of its rockets blew

:30:20. > :30:24.up, but SpaceX quickly got back to its key business of launching

:30:25. > :30:29.satellites and this week its Dragon capsule delivered cargo

:30:30. > :30:32.to the International Space Station. A trip to the moon is obviously

:30:33. > :30:35.harder, but critics say it Well, it's going to give two rich

:30:36. > :30:40.people a thrill of a lifetime. This is not going to do any science,

:30:41. > :30:43.it's not really exploration, it's repeating missions that have

:30:44. > :30:48.been done 40 plus years before. So it is mainly,

:30:49. > :30:52.basically, an adventure. A thrill ride that

:30:53. > :30:55.demonstrates a new capability. Well, tourists visiting

:30:56. > :31:04.the International Space Station have We don't know who the two passengers

:31:05. > :31:15.are, but if they do get there, they may pave the way

:31:16. > :31:25.for others to follow. Quick reminder. A few hours before

:31:26. > :31:28.President Trump delivers that speech.

:31:29. > :31:32.Newsnight is coming up on BBC Two. Here's Evan Davis.

:31:33. > :31:35.There is some special coverage of behind-the-scenes in the White

:31:36. > :31:37.House. Tonight, the President

:31:38. > :31:39.versus the press. We have a film of life

:31:40. > :31:42.behind-the-scenes in the White House briefing room, footage documenting

:31:43. > :31:44.a turbulent week in the fraught relationship between

:31:45. > :31:47.President Trump and the media.
