0:00:05 > 0:00:07Tonight at Ten:
0:00:07 > 0:00:09An official review says the Manchester bombing -
0:00:09 > 0:00:12which killed 22 people earlier this year - could have been stopped.
0:00:12 > 0:00:16The bomber, Salman Abedi, had been a subject of interest to MI5,
0:00:16 > 0:00:20and opportunities to stop him were missed.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22A report by a former independent reviewer of terrorism legislation
0:00:22 > 0:00:27says the intelligence should have been acted upon.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30Having received that intelligence, MI5 should have opened an
0:00:30 > 0:00:34investigation and who knows what that investigation would have found.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38Fact is, they didn't.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41We'll have details of the official review into the attack in Manchester
0:00:41 > 0:00:42and those in London.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Also tonight...
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Theresa May, discussing Brexit with the Spanish prime minister,
0:00:47 > 0:00:52says the UK is close to a deal to move on to trade talks.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55A decision by the International Olympic Committee, to ban Russia
0:00:55 > 0:00:59from competing at next year's Winter Olympics, after allegations
0:00:59 > 0:01:02of state-sponsored doping.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Christine Keeler, the model at the centre of one of the great
0:01:05 > 0:01:11political scandals of modern times, has died at the age of 75.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14And we'll be live in Hull to talk to the winner of this year's
0:01:14 > 0:01:19Turner Prize for art.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22And coming up on Sportsday later in the hour on BBC News:
0:01:22 > 0:01:23Three British clubs - Celtic, Cheslea and
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Manceshetr United - are in Champions League action,
0:01:25 > 0:01:28playing their final group matches.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51Good evening.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53The bomber who attacked the Manchester Arena in May this
0:01:53 > 0:01:58year, killing 22 people, had been a subject of interest
0:01:58 > 0:01:59to the security service and opportunities to stop
0:01:59 > 0:02:05him were missed.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07That's the conclusion of an official review by David Anderson,
0:02:07 > 0:02:09a former independent reviewer of terrorism legislation.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12He says it's conceivable that the attack by Salman Abedi
0:02:12 > 0:02:15could have been avoided had the "cards fallen differently".
0:02:15 > 0:02:20After the Manchester bombing and three terror attacks
0:02:20 > 0:02:22in London this year , counter-terror police and MI5
0:02:22 > 0:02:24conducted their own reviews, as our security correspondent,
0:02:24 > 0:02:26Gordon Corera, reports.
0:02:26 > 0:02:31Four terror attacks in three months, with some of those responsible
0:02:31 > 0:02:34known to the authorities, raising questions as to whether they
0:02:34 > 0:02:37could have been prevented.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Today a review said that the bombing at Manchester Arena,
0:02:40 > 0:02:43which killed 22 in May, was the only one that
0:02:43 > 0:02:45might have been stopped.
0:02:45 > 0:02:49The bomber, Salman Abedi, had been known to the authorities
0:02:49 > 0:02:52in the past but was not under active investigation.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56However, data analysis of 20,000 former suspects flagged him as one
0:02:56 > 0:03:00of a few dozen people for further investigation.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03But nine days before a meeting about this,
0:03:03 > 0:03:06he carried out his attack.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08And in the months leading up to that, new intelligence came in,
0:03:08 > 0:03:12which, if assessed differently, might have made him a priority.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16In hindsight, it's quite obvious that having received that
0:03:16 > 0:03:20intelligence, MI5 should have opened an investigation and who knows what
0:03:20 > 0:03:23that investigation would have found.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Fact is, they didn't interpret the intelligence that way.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30The opportunity was missed.
0:03:30 > 0:03:3315-year-old Olivia Campbell-Hardy was killed in Manchester.
0:03:33 > 0:03:38Her grandfather today said he wasn't blaming the Security Services.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40They're going to do the best they can with the information
0:03:40 > 0:03:42they've got and they gather.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46Assess theirselves, assess the situation,
0:03:46 > 0:03:49make decisions and act on it.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52I will not fault anybody for doing their job.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54On the other attacks, in the case of London Bridge,
0:03:54 > 0:03:58ring leader, Khuram Butt, was under active investigation,
0:03:58 > 0:04:00but there were no signs of what he was planning.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03In Westminster Bridge, Khalid Masood was a former
0:04:03 > 0:04:07subject of interest, but there were no warning signs.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11In Finsbury Park, there was no intelligence on the man charged.
0:04:11 > 0:04:16This year's attacks were a shock to the Security Service MI5,
0:04:16 > 0:04:19and today's report makes clear there do need some changes.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23There are 126 recommendations in all.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Perhaps the most important - that information from here needs
0:04:26 > 0:04:31to be shared more freely with local police and other partners.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34The Home Secretary responded today by saying that police
0:04:34 > 0:04:36would have the money they needed.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40We will shortly be announcing the budgets
0:04:40 > 0:04:43for policing for 2017/18.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46I am clear that we must ensure counter-terrorism policing has
0:04:46 > 0:04:50the resources needed to deal with the threats that we face.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53As well as these four attacks, nine more plots have been
0:04:53 > 0:04:57stopped in the last year, and officials warn the threat
0:04:57 > 0:05:00remains unprecedented.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Gordon Corera, BBC News.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07The Prime Minister has been warned, by some of her own Conservative
0:05:07 > 0:05:10colleagues, that nothing must be done in the Brexit talks
0:05:10 > 0:05:13which threatens the integrity and unity of the United Kingdom.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17The warning was delivered after yesterday's setback for Theresa May,
0:05:17 > 0:05:21when the Democratic Unionist Party of Northern Ireland objected
0:05:21 > 0:05:23to proposals for the Irish border.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26Labour said the Government's approach to Brexit was now
0:05:26 > 0:05:31an "embarrassment" as our political editor, Laura Kuenssberg, reports.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34You can shake hands as much as you like.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37REPORTER: Prime Minister, are you confident of a deal?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39But it doesn't mean there'll be a deal.
0:05:39 > 0:05:44The Spanish leader, only one of the dozens she has to get onside.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47There are still a couple of issues we need to work on,
0:05:47 > 0:05:54but we'll be reconvening in Brussels later this week.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58But it's this band she needs right now, the Democratic Unionist Party's
0:05:58 > 0:06:01ten MPs, feeling their power in every step.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05Good afternoon, folks.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07They refused to back Theresa May's deal in Brussels yesterday
0:06:07 > 0:06:09over Ireland's border.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Their fear?
0:06:11 > 0:06:13It would send Northern Ireland on a different path
0:06:13 > 0:06:16to the rest of the UK.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Clearly, the text that we were shown very late yesterday morning did not
0:06:19 > 0:06:21translate what we had been told in general conversations
0:06:21 > 0:06:24into reality.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Would you be willing to see the deal fail?
0:06:26 > 0:06:29We don't want to see the talks fail.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31We don't want to see an outcome where there's no deal.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34We want to see a sensible Brexit.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36It's not a done deal, never too late.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Yesterday's collapse provoked arguments on all sides,
0:06:39 > 0:06:41with some believing Scotland, Wales or some sectors of the economy
0:06:41 > 0:06:43should all get special status now.
0:06:43 > 0:06:49In Dublin, one clear message: No budging.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Clinging to the agreement that the north and south
0:06:51 > 0:06:55would mirror each others' rules and regulations in future.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57The ball is in London's court.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59The Prime Minister and the European Commission,
0:06:59 > 0:07:02the negotiating teams, have asked for more time.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05I understand that the Prime Minister is managing many difficulties.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Number Ten still believes it could be back on by the end of the week.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Sorted certainly by Christmas.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14But the failure yesterday meant a barrage of attacks in the Commons.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18What an embarrassment.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Shambles.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23If the price of the Prime Minister's approach is the break up
0:07:23 > 0:07:26of the Union and re-opening of bitter divides in
0:07:26 > 0:07:31Northern Ireland, then the price is too high.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34The suggestion we might depart the European Union but leave one
0:07:34 > 0:07:36part of the United Kingdom behind - still inside the single
0:07:36 > 0:07:40market and customs union - that is emphatically not something
0:07:40 > 0:07:44that the UK Government is considering.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47REPORTER: Confident of a deal, Mr Johnson?
0:07:47 > 0:07:50There's no agreement yet at Cabinet about the specifics of what happens
0:07:50 > 0:07:52next and there's brooding unhappiness about some Brexiteers
0:07:52 > 0:07:55of what was promised.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58The former leader telling the BBC it might be time to walk away.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00This is a game being played out over power.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03The answer boils down to - who will call the shots on this?
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Right now, we have to say: Not good enough.
0:08:06 > 0:08:12We simply cannot pay this price.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16You're saying to Brussels, "Back off or we'll walk."
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Well, I think the statement is even more straightforward.
0:08:19 > 0:08:24You need to change this process and to back off, otherwise we get
0:08:24 > 0:08:27on with other arrangements.
0:08:27 > 0:08:32The Prime Minister and the DUP are yet to talk directly today.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36Theresa May is not in total control of her relationships
0:08:36 > 0:08:37with her friends or rivals.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41Laura Kuenssberg, BBC News, Westminster.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44The DUP leader, Arlene Foster, said tonight that the proposal
0:08:44 > 0:08:48being discussed yesterday in Brussels - about resolving
0:08:48 > 0:08:51the Irish border question - had come as a big shock.
0:08:51 > 0:08:56At the heart of the DUP's concerns was the prospect of reinforcing ties
0:08:56 > 0:08:59between the north and the Republic and potential new differences
0:08:59 > 0:09:01emerging within the UK.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03Our Ireland correspondent, Chris Buckler, has been
0:09:03 > 0:09:10to County Antrim to examines the Unionists' concerns.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14From the port at Larne harbour, every day trucks and trade make the
0:09:14 > 0:09:18journey across the Irish Sea to Britain. Unionists say the rest of
0:09:18 > 0:09:23the UK is Northern Ireland's most important market, not the European
0:09:23 > 0:09:28Union. And in this town, some were concerned by a Brexit deal that
0:09:28 > 0:09:36focussed on interests on this island rather than across these isles.It
0:09:36 > 0:09:39would mean a united Ireland. We need to keep hold of our beliefs and
0:09:39 > 0:09:42traditions. There's a lot of things sold down the river. We need to hold
0:09:42 > 0:09:47on to what we can.After many rows about flags and culture, some
0:09:47 > 0:09:52unionists worry that this is a kingdom that's becoming less united.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Politics in Northern Ireland tends to be dominated by questions of
0:09:56 > 0:10:00identity, whether see themselves as British or Irish and what scared the
0:10:00 > 0:10:08DUP was that the deal on the table seemed to prioritise relationships
0:10:08 > 0:10:12in the Republic of Ireland over those in the rest of the UK. There's
0:10:12 > 0:10:14certainly no love lost between the DUP and Irish government. They've
0:10:14 > 0:10:20accused each other of endangering relationships. Daniel Connor says
0:10:20 > 0:10:23this is a place where they really matter.If you're saying that the
0:10:23 > 0:10:28DUP are trying to force Theresa May's hand. What I'm saying is that
0:10:28 > 0:10:31this could easily be sorted out by the Irish government. You know, if
0:10:31 > 0:10:35you're talking about the Belfast Agreement, they have as much
0:10:35 > 0:10:40responsibility as anybody else.The DUP, which campaigned for Brexit,
0:10:40 > 0:10:45had the power to say no to the deal, because the Conservatives need their
0:10:45 > 0:10:49support at Westminster.It does not want to be seen to weaken Northern
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Ireland's place within the United Kingdom. Anything which would bring
0:10:51 > 0:10:55Northern Ireland closer to Dublin and further away from London would
0:10:55 > 0:11:00be very difficult for the DUP to sell to its supporters.In cutting
0:11:00 > 0:11:03any deal, there were some here that felt that unionists should be wary
0:11:03 > 0:11:08of asking too much from the Tories, after all, they share many of their
0:11:08 > 0:11:12political principles.I think really Theresa May, she would possibly be
0:11:12 > 0:11:18better to say to the DUP, if you don't vote for us, what's the
0:11:18 > 0:11:21alternative - possibly Jeremy Corbyn. I think that would be what
0:11:21 > 0:11:26they don't really want.Keeping the tie that's will satisfy both the
0:11:26 > 0:11:29European Union and the DUP will be a difficult task for the Prime
0:11:29 > 0:11:34Minister. But she's left with no choice but to try to turn these
0:11:34 > 0:11:39negotiations around. Chris Buckler, BBC News, Larne.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Russia has been banned from competing at next year's
0:11:41 > 0:11:44Winter Olympics in South Korea.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46It follows an investigation into allegations of state-sponsored
0:11:46 > 0:11:49doping at the 2014 Games, which were hosted
0:11:49 > 0:11:51by Russia in Sochi.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54But the International Olympic Committee has decided
0:11:54 > 0:11:57that Russian athletes, who can prove they are clean,
0:11:57 > 0:12:00will be allowed to compete in South Korea under a neutral flag.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04Our sports editor, Dan Roan, reports.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07It's taken almost four years, but tonight a sporting superpower paid
0:12:07 > 0:12:11the price for sabotaging its own Olympics.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15Russia ruled at Sochi 2014, but behind the scenes, it was
0:12:15 > 0:12:19cheating on a scale never seen before, and today after a 17 month
0:12:19 > 0:12:21long investigation, the IOC decided on an unprecedented punishment.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24Russia would be banned.
0:12:24 > 0:12:29The report clearly lays out an unprecedented
0:12:29 > 0:12:31attack on the integrity of the Olympic games and sport.
0:12:31 > 0:12:37As an athlete myself, I am feeling very
0:12:37 > 0:12:42sorry for all the clean athletes from all areas who are suffering
0:12:42 > 0:12:45from this manipulation.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48Russia's cheating was exposed by the former
0:12:48 > 0:12:52head of Moscow's anti-doping lab, Grigory Rodchenkov,
0:12:52 > 0:13:01alleging an elaborate
0:13:01 > 0:13:03state-sponsored conspiracy that benefited 1000 athletes across
0:13:03 > 0:13:0430 sports.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06As with this summer's world athletics championship in London,
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Russian competitors who can prove they are clean will be allowed to
0:13:09 > 0:13:11take part in PyeongChang, but only as neutrals,
0:13:11 > 0:13:13referred to as Olympic athletes from Russia.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16They will compete with the uniform bearing
0:13:16 > 0:13:19this name, and under the Olympic flag.
0:13:19 > 0:13:24The Olympic anthem will be played in any ceremony.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28Last week in Moscow at the draw of the World Cup
0:13:28 > 0:13:31is residing over, Russia's Deputy Prime Minister told me that
0:13:31 > 0:13:34criticism of his country was unfair.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38Today the former sportsman was banned from the Olympics
0:13:38 > 0:13:40for life for his role in the scandal.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Tonight's news will dismay Russians
0:13:42 > 0:13:46like former Olympic speed skater Svetlana Zhurova.
0:13:46 > 0:13:54now a politician, she told me the games were all about
0:13:54 > 0:13:56representing one's country.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58When you stand on the podium, you see your
0:13:58 > 0:14:01flag, you listen your item, and you are so proud.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02You cry.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04It's very important, I think, for the IOC that
0:14:04 > 0:14:06each country had its own flag.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10This scandal has seen the rewriting of
0:14:10 > 0:14:11sports history books.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Russia topped the table in Sochi, but after the
0:14:14 > 0:14:16retesting of samples a host of athletes have been stripped of
0:14:16 > 0:14:17medals.
0:14:17 > 0:14:24Prior to today, the Olympic flame burned a lot less bright, but
0:14:24 > 0:14:31today people know that integrity matters, fair play matters, athletes
0:14:31 > 0:14:33rights, that ultimately falls this decision, they matter.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Last week, Russia's Olympians unveiled their
0:14:35 > 0:14:36kit for the Winter games.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Tonight, they learned they would not be
0:14:38 > 0:14:41needing it, their country out in the cold.
0:14:41 > 0:14:47The punishment meted out to Russia today is unparalleled in Olympic
0:14:47 > 0:14:51history, hewnly embarrassing and -- hugely embarrassing and painful for
0:14:51 > 0:14:54a country organising the World Cup next summer. They will appeal.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59President Putin is said to be considering whether to boycott the
0:14:59 > 0:15:04Games and stop any athletes from competing even as neutrals. The
0:15:04 > 0:15:07ramifications of this dispute should not be underestimated.Dan, thank
0:15:07 > 0:15:09you.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12President Trump has confirmed his intention to move
0:15:12 > 0:15:14America's embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17A spokesman for the Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas,
0:15:17 > 0:15:19said such a move would have "dangerous consequences"
0:15:19 > 0:15:22for world peace.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25And President Erdogan of Turkey threatened to cut off links
0:15:25 > 0:15:28to Israel describing the issue as a "red line" for Muslims.
0:15:28 > 0:15:35Our North America editor, Jon Sopel, is in Washington.
0:15:35 > 0:15:40What is your take on the President's calculation?Senior diplomats are
0:15:40 > 0:15:43asking the same question - why did you need to pick this fight and why
0:15:43 > 0:15:46did you need to pick it now? If you travel around America you don't hear
0:15:46 > 0:15:51a lot of people saying - one of the key central concerns for me is
0:15:51 > 0:15:55Donald Trump moving the US Embassy. The other aspects of this, as you
0:15:55 > 0:15:59said, issic maing Jerusalem the capital. That has provoked this
0:15:59 > 0:16:03enormous backlash. As you said, the Palestinians say dangerous
0:16:03 > 0:16:06consequences to peace and security. The Arab League, a dangerous
0:16:06 > 0:16:11measure. Saudi Arabia, detrimental to the peace process. Jordan saying
0:16:11 > 0:16:14there are serious implications for peace. Now, you have to see this in
0:16:14 > 0:16:20the context of how is he going to frame it? I've spoken to people who
0:16:20 > 0:16:23have been briefed on the speech. They say there may be areas to
0:16:23 > 0:16:27soften it up in terms of maybe for the first time Donald Trump
0:16:27 > 0:16:30accepting a two-state solution and East Jerusalem being part of a
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Palestinian state. But what you never really know is what Donald
0:16:34 > 0:16:39Trump is going to say until he says it.Jon, many thanks again for the
0:16:39 > 0:16:47update there. Jon Sopel for us in Washington.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49It's been confirmed within the past hour that Christine Keeler,
0:16:49 > 0:16:53the model who found herself at the centre of one of the great
0:16:53 > 0:16:58political scandals of modern times, has died at the age of 75.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00She became famous for her involvement
0:17:00 > 0:17:01in the Profumo Affair, back
0:17:01 > 0:17:09in 1963, a scandal that rocked the British establishment,
0:17:09 > 0:17:10Nick Higham expains.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12# She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah #.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15It was the biggest scandal of the 1960s and Christine Keeler
0:17:15 > 0:17:17was the woman at its centre - model, party girl,
0:17:17 > 0:17:18mistress of powerful men.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20John Profuma was the Minister for War, he and Christine
0:17:20 > 0:17:22had a brief affair.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25When challenged, he lied about it to the House of Commons,
0:17:25 > 0:17:26and was forced to resign.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28It didn't help that Yevgeny Ivanov, a KGB spy,
0:17:28 > 0:17:32had also been seeing Keeler.
0:17:32 > 0:17:38The old establishment never recovered from the shock.
0:17:38 > 0:17:45The Profuma Affair spelt the end of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan's
0:17:45 > 0:17:49government, but also the end of an era of deference and respect
0:17:49 > 0:17:51in which had been discreetly swept under the carpet.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54It was one of the first occasions when politicians were held
0:17:54 > 0:17:56accountable for their private behaviour and their bedroom antics
0:17:56 > 0:17:58actually had ramifications in their political careers.
0:17:58 > 0:18:04Christine always claimed she was more prey and that predator.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09I wish that at that time I had been older, so that
0:18:09 > 0:18:11I would have been able to have answered or spoke
0:18:11 > 0:18:13up for myself.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15She'd school at 15, her childhood home had been a pair
0:18:15 > 0:18:22of converted railway carriages.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25She'd a child at 17 and then lived with Peter Racham,
0:18:25 > 0:18:32a notorious slum landlord.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Later, her West Indian boyfriend was charged
0:18:34 > 0:18:36with assaulting her and Christine lied in court.
0:18:36 > 0:18:37She was jailed for perjury.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41Who is that, by the bins?
0:18:41 > 0:18:44She lives here, she owns the shop round the corner.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46She went on to write three books, one filmed as Scandal.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Christine was happy to help with the film's publicity.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54I can get you a place of your own.
0:18:54 > 0:19:02I've told you, I'm happy as I am.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05I never felt bitter, I think that some press have said that.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08But I've never felt bitter, maybe they were hoping I was,
0:19:08 > 0:19:09but, no, not at all.
0:19:09 > 0:19:10I haven't felt bitter.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12I'm pleased that the truth can come out now.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14But she was often broke, a victim, many thought,
0:19:14 > 0:19:17of establishment hypocrisy and two marriages ended in divorce.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Tonight her son said she'd earnt her place in British history,
0:19:19 > 0:19:20but at huge personal cost.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Christine Keeler, who died late last night at the age of 75.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27A BBC investigation has found that online streaming apps,
0:19:27 > 0:19:29used by children to make live broadcasts, are being infiltrated
0:19:29 > 0:19:32by men trying to groom young people.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35The National Crime Agency says it's arrested more than 190 men
0:19:35 > 0:19:38across the UK in a single week in connection with sexual
0:19:38 > 0:19:48offences against children.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08We have this special report from our correspondent Angus Crawford.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Meet Koods, she's 20 and an online safety campaigner,
0:20:10 > 0:20:11who we've transformed into 14-year-old Samira.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14She's going to try some of the most popular live-streaming apps to see
0:20:14 > 0:20:17what it's really like to be a teenage girl online.
0:20:17 > 0:20:18First, Periscope - Twitter's live video app,
0:20:18 > 0:20:20used by children all over the world.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22So there's quite a few people, within seconds -
0:20:22 > 0:20:23five, six, seven people joining.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25In minutes, the conversation turned sexual.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28She's 14, and yet someone has just asked her to take her
0:20:28 > 0:20:29shirt and her bra off.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Next is Live.me, only launched last year, now with more
0:20:31 > 0:20:35than 20 million users.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Some send Samira direct messages no one else can see -
0:20:38 > 0:20:44clearly trying to groom her.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Omegle is a one-to-one video chat app that randomly
0:20:46 > 0:20:48connects her to users around the world.
0:20:48 > 0:20:53Most are men, some expose themselves.
0:20:53 > 0:20:54I just said, "Hi."
0:20:54 > 0:20:56He said, "May I show it?"
0:20:56 > 0:20:57I said, "What?"
0:20:57 > 0:21:03He has got it out.
0:21:03 > 0:21:10Pretty much as soon as I started, all I'd said was - hi,
0:21:10 > 0:21:13I think, I'm 14 and a girl, and then I was just inundated.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Here's a guy going on cam.
0:21:15 > 0:21:15What's he doing?
0:21:15 > 0:21:17He was naked.
0:21:17 > 0:21:18Oh, he was naked?
0:21:18 > 0:21:19And you told him you were 14?
0:21:19 > 0:21:22Can you imagine if you had been a 14-year-old girl?
0:21:22 > 0:21:25My first reaction would be to be confused.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27For a second, it's nice having the attention of the hearts,
0:21:27 > 0:21:29and then it gets quite dark, quite quickly.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31And it's happening to real children right now.
0:21:31 > 0:21:36Look at this broadcast on Periscope.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Two girls we can't identify, around 11 years old.
0:21:39 > 0:21:412,000 people are watching, some dare them to lift their shirts.
0:21:41 > 0:21:48Read the comments, as men ask them to go further.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50For those girls, it may have seemed like fun,
0:21:50 > 0:21:51but it can be devastating.
0:21:51 > 0:21:57I found her inconsolable.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00This is an actress, but the words are true.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04Those of a mother whose 10-year-old daughter tried out Omegle for fun.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07He switched his webcam on, showed her his private parts
0:22:07 > 0:22:17and asked her to take photos of herself, which she did.
0:22:17 > 0:22:18He was never located.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21This mother says parents have to talk to their children
0:22:21 > 0:22:24about the dangers.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Hi, I'm Sam.
0:22:26 > 0:22:31That's also the message behind this video launched today.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34But for some in law enforcement, that's not enough, the tech
0:22:34 > 0:22:38companies also need to do more.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40The industry has emerged rapidly, so I think it's important to reflect
0:22:40 > 0:22:43on how they're ensuring that younger children aren't using their services
0:22:43 > 0:22:45and age verification, maybe thinking about the moderation
0:22:45 > 0:22:51techniques that they might be able to use.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53No one from these app companies would be interviewed,
0:22:53 > 0:22:59but Periscope says it doesn't tolerate this behaviour.
0:22:59 > 0:23:05Omegle and Live.me didn't respond to our requests.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07When children can broadcast to the world from their own bedrooms,
0:23:07 > 0:23:09whose job is it to keep them safe?
0:23:09 > 0:23:15Angus Crawford, BBC News.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Rail passengers are facing the steepest rise in
0:23:17 > 0:23:19fares in five years.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Prices will rise by an average of 3.4% in January.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26The increase includes season tickets and some off-peak leisure tickets.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28The Rail Delivery Group admitted it was a "significant" rise,
0:23:28 > 0:23:31but said that more than 97% of fare income went back into improving
0:23:31 > 0:23:38and running the railway.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Steelworkers have told the BBC that they've lost many thousands
0:23:41 > 0:23:44of pounds because of poor financial advice relating to the transfer
0:23:44 > 0:23:46of their old British Steel pensions.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49The Financial Conduct Authority has issued warnings to some
0:23:49 > 0:23:54independent financial advisors and a parliamentary
0:23:54 > 0:23:57committee is to investigate as well.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02Our correspondent, Sian Lloyd, has more details.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05The giant Port Talbot steelworks, the biggest of the Tata's UK plants.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07The company said the old gold-plated British Steel pension
0:24:07 > 0:24:09scheme was unsustainable, leaving workers here and at other
0:24:09 > 0:24:14sites a range of options, including transferring out altogether.
0:24:14 > 0:24:21With around 130,000 workers affected, huge pension pots
0:24:21 > 0:24:22and lucrative commissions for financial advisors
0:24:22 > 0:24:23have been at stake.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27It's cost me in the region of £200,000, so it's a lot of money.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Richard Bevan is one of those workers.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32After 39 years at the Trostre Steelworks, near Llanelli,
0:24:32 > 0:24:34he wanted a secure future.
0:24:34 > 0:24:40He went to this local firm, Celtic Wealth Management,
0:24:40 > 0:24:45who he thought were regulated financial advisors, but they're not.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47They introduced clients to a firm of regulated advisors
0:24:47 > 0:24:49based in the Midlands, called Active Wealth UK.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Between them, they failed to give Richard a suitability report
0:24:52 > 0:24:58on which he could properly base his decision and advised him
0:24:58 > 0:25:00to transfer his pension out of the company scheme even though
0:25:00 > 0:25:02a recalculation was due, which would have substantially
0:25:02 > 0:25:03increased his pension pot.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05We're aware that other steelworkers are also unhappy
0:25:05 > 0:25:08about their treatment by the two companies.
0:25:08 > 0:25:16I'm not a gullible sort of person, but I've obviously been led
0:25:16 > 0:25:20into doing something that wasn't right for me by a financial
0:25:20 > 0:25:21advisor, you know.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24And it's not a nice place to be at the moment.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Both companies deny Richard's claims, but after
0:25:27 > 0:25:31we passed our findings to the Financial Conduct Authority,
0:25:31 > 0:25:33the regulator intervened and Active Wealth is no longer
0:25:33 > 0:25:43allowed to give pensions advice.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48But this issue extends far beyond the steelworkers of South Wales.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50Gary Clement has worked at the Scunthorpe steelworks for 40 years.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53He'd planned to retire at 55.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55He paid a team of financial advisors, called Lighthouse,
0:25:55 > 0:26:00a fee of more than £10,000 for advice which included
0:26:00 > 0:26:02information about when he could access his pension, which they've
0:26:02 > 0:26:04since admitted was wrong.
0:26:04 > 0:26:09You go to a financial advisor for financial advice.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12He says - this is what you do, this is in your best interest.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13You listen.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16I don't believe they have anybody's best interests at heart.
0:26:16 > 0:26:23I believe it's just about money.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Gary has received a letter from his advisors accepting
0:26:25 > 0:26:27he wasn't given the correct information, but they say
0:26:27 > 0:26:30they believe he would have reached the same decision to leave
0:26:30 > 0:26:33the fund anyway.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36Gary believes transferring out of the scheme when he did has
0:26:36 > 0:26:37cost him hundreds of thousands.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39The City watchdog, the Financial Conduct Authority,
0:26:39 > 0:26:42is worried that steelworkers are particularly at risk.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44This is a group of people, thousands of people,
0:26:44 > 0:26:47who have to make a decision one way or the other.
0:26:47 > 0:26:53That gives rise to particular complexities.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56So, yes, they are particularly vulnerable I think at this stage.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59There is growing concern that hundreds of steelworkers could be
0:26:59 > 0:27:01affected by a feeding frenzy surrounding the British Steel
0:27:01 > 0:27:03pension scheme, and millions of pounds of their hard-earned
0:27:03 > 0:27:04savings potentially at risk.
0:27:04 > 0:27:12Sian Lloyd, BBC News, Port Talbot.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15A rebel stronghold in the suburbs of Damascus has come under intense
0:27:15 > 0:27:19bombardment in recent weeks as Syrian government
0:27:19 > 0:27:21forces try to starve the rebels into submission,
0:27:21 > 0:27:26and those suffering include children.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28The BBC has obtained footage from residents
0:27:28 > 0:27:29in the suburb of Eastern Ghouta.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Our Middle East correspondent, Martin Patience, has sent this
0:27:31 > 0:27:35report, which includes some distressing images.
0:27:35 > 0:27:40It's a scene from hell, the aftermath of the latest air strike.
0:27:40 > 0:27:46Children here can't outrun this war.
0:27:46 > 0:27:51Doctors patch up five-year-old Yusuf as best they can,
0:27:51 > 0:27:53but they're desperately short of medical supplies, and there's
0:27:53 > 0:27:59nothing they can do for trauma.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01The rebel stronghold of Eastern Ghouta has been bombed
0:28:01 > 0:28:03and besieged by the Syrian government for years,
0:28:03 > 0:28:13leaving many families on the brink of starvation.
0:28:14 > 0:28:23It's lunchtime for Nour and Rassel, this is their first and only meal
0:28:23 > 0:28:26of the day - a piece of bread made from barley,
0:28:26 > 0:28:27which is normally fed to donkeys.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29They dream of escaping their prison, Eastern Ghouta.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33TRANSLATION:I wish I could have cookies,
0:28:33 > 0:28:36sweeties or any other delicious foods, and I wish someone
0:28:36 > 0:28:43could send me a pair of slippers and some new clothes and shoes.
0:28:43 > 0:28:50I really miss food, like chicken, cheese, tea and juice.
0:28:50 > 0:28:51In another home, two-and-a-half-year-old Hamza is
0:28:51 > 0:28:54suffering from severe malnutrition.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58He wears make-shift nappies.
0:28:58 > 0:29:08Hamza was abandoned before being taken in by a neighbour.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Oma Mohammed says he's like one of her own children.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13"Hamza's my son now", she says.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15There's supposed to be a ceasefire in Eastern Ghouta,
0:29:15 > 0:29:22but the fighting is intensifying.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25For the people here, there's no respite from the war.
0:29:25 > 0:29:32Martin Patience, BBC News, Beirut.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35More tributes have been paid today to the Indian actor
0:29:35 > 0:29:38and Bollywood star Shashi Kapoor, who died yesterday at the age of 79
0:29:38 > 0:29:41after a long illness.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45Last night we showed the wrong images, for which we apologise.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48The actor, part of one of India's greatest acting families,
0:29:48 > 0:29:50appeared in more than 150 films, including a number of
0:29:50 > 0:29:53English-language productions.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56Shashi Kapoor won numerous acting prizes during his long career
0:29:56 > 0:30:06as well as one of India's highest civilian awards.
0:30:07 > 0:30:07Cricket news.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09The England captain, Joe Root, has maintained hopes
0:30:09 > 0:30:11of an unexpected victory against Australia in
0:30:11 > 0:30:12the second Ashes Test.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15He made an unbeaten 67, taking England to 176-4 at the close
0:30:15 > 0:30:17of play on the fourth day.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20The last day's play begins in a few hours with England needing
0:30:20 > 0:30:29a further 178 runs to win.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Our arts editor, Will Gompertz, is in Hull tonight, where the winner
0:30:32 > 0:30:34has just been announced.
0:30:34 > 0:30:38It has been a historic evening. The Turner Prize has awarded the prize
0:30:38 > 0:30:42for the fist time ever to a female black artist also to the oldest
0:30:42 > 0:30:47artist to ever win the prize at 63 years old. I feel awkward saying,
0:30:47 > 0:30:52she is standing to my side here. Himid hymn congratulations. That's a
0:30:52 > 0:30:56wonderful win. You have waited longer than any other artist in the
0:30:56 > 0:31:01history of the prize to win it. Was it worth the wait?It's definitely
0:31:01 > 0:31:06worth the wait. I'm not sure I was always waiting, but, yes, it's an
0:31:06 > 0:31:09exciting thing to happen to me. It's an exciting thing for the people who
