A visit by the Foreign Secretary
to Russia to repair relations ends | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
in public disagreement
and accusations of lying. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:12 | |
A handshake between Boris Johnson
and his Russian counterpart | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
is followed by accusations
of Russian cyber attacks. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:20 | |
You should recognise that Russian
attempts to interfere | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
in our elections and our referendums
- whatever they may have been - | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
have not been successful. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:30 | |
Today's meeting was intended
to open up channels of communication | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
between the two countries -
has it worked? | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
Also tonight, | 0:00:35 | 0:00:36 | |
A man is charged with murder
after a woman is stabbed to death | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
at the supermarket where she worked. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
From EU burgundy to British blue -
UK passports to change | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
colour after Brexit. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
The new migrant crisis
unfolding in Greece - | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
with thousands of asylum seekers
forced to live in squalor. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:57 | |
My name is Eva Schloss -
would you like to ask me some | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
questions about my life? | 0:01:00 | 0:01:01 | |
And how a holocaust survivor
is answering the questions yet to be | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
asked by generations to come. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
And coming-up on
Sportsday on BBC News: | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
It's a festive goal fest
at the Emirates Arsenal | 0:01:13 | 0:01:18 | |
take on Liverpool -
fifth v fourth in | 0:01:18 | 0:01:23 | |
the Permier League. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:33 | |
in the Premier League. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:41 | |
Good evening. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
A meeting intended to bring British
relations with Russia out | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
of the deep freeze has ended
with public accusations of lying. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
In the first visit by a Foreign
Secretary to Moscow for five years, | 0:01:51 | 0:01:58 | |
Boris Johnson confronted his Russian
counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
about Moscow's alleged involvement
in cyber attacks on the West. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
Mr Lavrov retorted that
the accusations were fabricated | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
and criticised the UK for making
what he called a series | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
of aggressive and insulting public
statements about Russia. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:09 | |
Our diplomatic correspondent
James Robbins reports. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
Handshakes can be deceptive. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
True, this Foreign
Secretary has broken a | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
five-year British boycott
of visits to Moscow. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
But when Russia's Sergei Lavrov says
he wants a return to | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
business as usual, Boris Johnson
says that's impossible. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
As you rightly say,
Sergei, things are not | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
easy between us at the moment. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:37 | |
The talks aired
grievances on both and | 0:02:37 | 0:02:43 | |
The talks aired grievances
on both sides and | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
examined space for
limited cooperation. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:46 | |
By supporting the Iran nuclear deal
together and opposing | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
the nuclear threat from North Korea. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
But deep disagreements remain. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:56 | |
At their joint news
conference, that was stark. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
For all the efforts at banter
there was a seriousness when Sergey | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
For all the efforts at banter
there was a seriousness when Sergei | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
Lavrov tried to brush off British
allegations of Russia meddling | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
in foreign elections. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
TRANSLATION: My neighbour
Boris Johnson recently | 0:03:09 | 0:03:19 | |
stated he had no evidence that
Russia meddled in the referendum on | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
the withdrawal of Britain
from the European Union. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
Not successfully, not successfully
I think is the word. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
Not successfully is the word that
I think you need to introduce. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
TRANSLATION: You see,
he's scared if he doesn't disagree | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
with me, his reputation
will be ruined in the media at home. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
Sergei, it's your reputation
I'm worried about. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
So how did relations with Russia
go from bad to worse? | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
Russia's use of radioactive poison
to murder Alexander Litvinenko in | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
the middle of London
started the slide. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
Three years ago Russia's
annexation of Crimea and | 0:03:50 | 0:03:55 | |
interference in Ukraine provoked
tough EU sanctions, strongly | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
backed by Britain. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
Then last month, Theresa May
accused Russia of cyber | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
espionage and meddling in elections. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
Britain says it has cyber weaponry
to retaliate if attacks get worse. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:09 | |
It is a sad truth that our
relations, having gone through a | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
good patch in the 1990s
and the early 2000s, are now going | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
through a very difficult patch. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:19 | |
There is no question of that at all. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:25 | |
But one of the reasons for coming
here is that there is no point in | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
simply sitting on the sidelines
and complaining about each other. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
We have to engage. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:39 | |
But when Boris Johnson
was asked if he trusted | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
Russia's Foreign Minister, to avoid
a direct answer he tried to | 0:04:42 | 0:04:45 | |
make light of it. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:46 | |
You know, it's a measure
of my trust that as soon as | 0:04:46 | 0:04:50 | |
I got into this excellent Foreign
Ministry I immediately handed my | 0:04:50 | 0:04:55 | |
coat, my hat, my gloves,
and indeed everything | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
that was in my pockets,
secret or otherwise, to | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
Sergei Lavrov. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
TRANSLATION: I can say
there was nothing in the pockets of | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
Boris's coat. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:14 | |
So, striding across Red Square,
the Foreign Secretary was | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
no mere tourist. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:22 | |
He was nodding to Russia's
historic greatness, while | 0:05:22 | 0:05:23 | |
pressing for a radical
change of direction. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
Coming here to Red Square Boris
Johnson insists that he | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
loves Russia. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:29 | |
He points to his name,
the fact that he has some | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
Russian ancestry. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
What he doesn't love
is the present Russian government. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:35 | |
So, paying his tribute
at the tomb of Russia's | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
Unknown Soldier had
a particular symbolism. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
Britain and Russia fought together
against Hitler as allies. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
Restoring that closeness now
seems a long way off. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:53 | |
James, it was clearly a tense
atmosphere in the room between Boris | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
Johnson and Sergei Lavrov. What
chance is there that that meeting | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
will improve relations between the
two countries? You could certainly | 0:05:59 | 0:06:03 | |
feel the tension. This is a story of
enormous mutual suspicion but it was | 0:06:03 | 0:06:10 | |
an important meeting between two
substantial world powers, many | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
different in many ways, Russia of
this country of course, the largest | 0:06:12 | 0:06:17 | |
by land area in the world, Britain
by comparison tiny. But with a | 0:06:17 | 0:06:22 | |
substantially larger economy than
the Russian economy. But the thing | 0:06:22 | 0:06:27 | |
that the two countries share,
they're very precious rare commodity | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
in global power, is that they
together have two of only five veto | 0:06:30 | 0:06:37 | |
power seats on the Security Council
at the United Nations in New York. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:42 | |
They need to get along much better
if they are to contribute to a | 0:06:42 | 0:06:47 | |
constructive dialogue to try and
underpin global security. But Sergey | 0:06:47 | 0:06:51 | |
Lavrov made clear that Russia still
feels undervalued by others. It | 0:06:51 | 0:06:56 | |
still feels it is the victim of a
Western constructed fabrication. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:03 | |
Voice Johnson is entirely dismissive
of that and points out that many | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Western countries feel gravely
threatened by Russia, particularly | 0:07:06 | 0:07:11 | |
over electoral meddling. You could
sense that also in the way Boris | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
Johnson made a point of prodding
Russia in various sensitive points. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
He went at the end of his meeting to
lay flowers at the spot where an | 0:07:19 | 0:07:26 | |
opposition leader was assassinated
two years ago just under the Kremlin | 0:07:26 | 0:07:28 | |
wall and also championed LGBT rights
in Russia, pretty unpopular in this | 0:07:28 | 0:07:36 | |
country and told students if they
could only have a free press their | 0:07:36 | 0:07:39 | |
country would be more prosperous.
Open yes but suspicious still. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:46 | |
The fourth election in as many years
in the Spanish region of Catalonia | 0:07:46 | 0:07:54 | |
Has once again confirmed its
divisions. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:56 | |
The party that won the most
votes doesn't support | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
independence for Catalonia -
but put together the separatist | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
parties are able to
form a slim majority. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
It follows the controversial
referendum in favour | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
of independence in October. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:05 | |
Here's James Reynolds. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
Catalonia's pro-independence voters
enjoy their victory. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
Now they want their power back. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:18 | |
Starting with the return
from exile of the deposed | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
regional President
Carlos Puigdemont. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
He now claims a mandate to lead
Catalonia once more. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:32 | |
But if he comes back
to take office he | 0:08:32 | 0:08:34 | |
faces arrest on the charge
of rebellion for having called | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
October's unlawful
independence referendum. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:47 | |
So, from Brussels this afternoon
Carles Puigdemont had a | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
message for Spain. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
Let's talk. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
Catalonia wants to be
in independent state. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:55 | |
This is the wish of
the Catalan people. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
But the next step immediately
is to talk with Mariano | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
Rajoy, with President Mariano Rajoy. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:05 | |
So, we need to find new ways,
a political solution for our crisis | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
between the Spanish
state and Catalonia. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:11 | |
But that's of no interest
to Spain's leader. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:16 | |
This afternoon Mariano Rajoy
made it clear, Carlos | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
Puigdemont remains a wanted man,
not a leader in waiting. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:22 | |
TRANSLATION: Politicians
must submit to the | 0:09:24 | 0:09:26 | |
justice system, just
like anyone else. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:30 | |
It does not bend to politics. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:34 | |
On this issue I would always be
in favour of what the courts say. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
This crisis began months ago
when a pro-independence | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
administration here faced off
against the central | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
government in Madrid. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:51 | |
There then followed
months of argument, | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
protest, debate, emergency measures
and then the vote, and now Catalans | 0:09:53 | 0:10:02 | |
find that they are right
back to where they were | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
when the crisis began. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:06 | |
Nobody has really changed sides. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
For now the local government
headquarters here awaits its | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
permanent occupants. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
The man who won this election can't
come to take up his old job. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
The law says that all sides
now have until April | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
to decide what to do next. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:24 | |
James Reynolds, BBC News, Barcelona. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:29 | |
A 44-year-old man has been
charged with murder, | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
after a woman was stabbed to death
while at work in a supermarket | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
in Skipton, in North Yorkshire. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
30-year-old Jodie Willsher - who's
married with a young daughter - | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
was attacked in the Aldi store
in front of shoppers | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
yesterday afternoon. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
Judith Moritz reports from Skipton. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:47 | |
Malcolm and Jodie Willsher
were looking forward | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
to a family Christmas. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:54 | |
Tonight, he is left grieving,
paying tribute to her as a doting | 0:10:54 | 0:10:57 | |
mother and loving wife. | 0:10:57 | 0:10:59 | |
Jodie Willsher was getting
ready for the holidays, | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
wearing her festive jumper
while serving supermarket shoppers. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:06 | |
Jodie had worked at the Skipton Aldi
since it opened two years ago. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:09 | |
Trolleys were abandoned
as fearful shoppers scattered, | 0:11:09 | 0:11:16 | |
whilst several staff and customers
rushed to help. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:20 | |
There was chaos inside the shop
as people realised what had | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
happened, and as Jodie lay dying,
the first person to intervene | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
was a man in his 60s,
who grappled with the attacker | 0:11:25 | 0:11:28 | |
for a long time as he
tried to restrain him. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:31 | |
Despite efforts to save Jodie,
she died on the shop floor. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:37 | |
She liked to be around her friends,
around her family. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:42 | |
It's just such a tragedy,
really, what's happened. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
She's such a beautiful girl, I can't
believe it's happened to her. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
She's so young. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:48 | |
She had all her life ahead of her. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
The supermarket became a crime
scene, forensic staff and police | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
officers taking evidence away. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
Today, the shop has remained closed,
with customers coming instead | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
to leave tributes for the popular
member of staff. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:03 | |
Whenever I've shopped in Aldi,
she's always been friendly, | 0:12:03 | 0:12:06 | |
pleasant, you know, a lovely girl,
really, and it's just... | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
What a shock. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:10 | |
An absolute shock, really. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
It's just absolutely awful. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:18 | |
With Christmas, and her little girl
being the same age as mine. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
Things like this don't happen
in this little town, | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
and it's absolutely heartbreaking. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
The community here is
small and tight knit. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:29 | |
Jodie Willsher worked at its heart,
well-known and well liked. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:33 | |
Tonight, a 44-year-old man has been
charged with her murder. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
He'll appear in court
in York in the morning. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
Judith Moritz, BBC News, Skipton. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:40 | |
The United Nations Security Council
has voted unanimously to impose | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
tougher sanctions on North Korea
in response to its recent | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
ballistic missile tests. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
The US-drafted resolution includes
measures to reduce the nation's | 0:12:52 | 0:12:56 | |
petrol imports by up to 90%. | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
China and Russia, North Korea's
main trading partners, | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
voted in favour of the resolution. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:04 | |
Two former South American football
officials have been convicted | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
for taking millions of dollars
in bribes to grant | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
broadcasting contracts. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
The former head of the South
American Football confederation | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
and former president of Brazil's
football federation are facing | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
long prison sentences. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:22 | |
British passport covers are to turn
blue once Britain leaves | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
the European Union in 2019. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
The current burgundy
passports will continue | 0:13:27 | 0:13:28 | |
to be issued until then,
but without the EU insignia. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:33 | |
The Home Office says the new blue
passport will be more high-tech | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
and secure to prevent
fraud and forgery. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
Our Home Affairs correspondent
Tom Symonds reports. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:43 | |
The great British passport,
shortly to be available not | 0:13:43 | 0:13:46 | |
in European burgundy. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
Because, it turns out,
Brexit means blue. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
The government admits
it is largely symbolic, | 0:13:53 | 0:13:55 | |
restoring our national identity. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
Outside the Passport Office,
what's the reaction? | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
It's blue, isn't it,
back to England. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
I just think it's a crying shame. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:08 | |
We have this fantastic ability
to travel around the world. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:10 | |
We are looked upon favourably
with our immigration policy | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
and everything else. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:13 | |
I think now it's a bit
embarrassing, to be honest. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:16 | |
I think the decision was a huge
aspect of, you know, | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
the country moving forward. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
And I think in order to move forward
there needs to be changes, | 0:14:20 | 0:14:24 | |
and if that's going to be
distinguished by a simple | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
colour, then why not? | 0:14:26 | 0:14:27 | |
Well, what's the difference? | 0:14:27 | 0:14:28 | |
It's a different colour. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:29 | |
That's it. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:30 | |
I just preferred it
when we were in Europe, everything. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:32 | |
Really? | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
Just everything, yeah. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:35 | |
Of course, the symbolism may be lost
on those too young to have | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
had the old passport,
which looked nothing | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
like this anyway. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:44 | |
The last true British
passport was hard backed, | 0:14:44 | 0:14:45 | |
much bigger, and very,
very dark blue. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
The European one, which replaced it
way back in 1988, was smaller, | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
floppy and much easier to put
in a pocket. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
The new one, and this
is just a mock-up, will be | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
of roughly the same design,
but it will keep all of the security | 0:14:59 | 0:15:02 | |
features which make it so hard
to copy, and it will add some. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:07 | |
This is the passport of the future,
and it is in circulation from today. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:11 | |
When the red EU passport
was introduced, 30 years ago, | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
Britain agreed to a common standard. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:16 | |
It didn't have to accept the colour. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
Croatia's passport remains blue. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
Even so, the burgundy
one was never loved. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:25 | |
I think it's one of the most
revolting, insignificant, | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
tiny minded, small pieces of paper
I've ever had the | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
misfortune to witness. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
It's not really a British
passport, is it? | 0:15:31 | 0:15:35 | |
These days, passports are redesigned
regularly to cut fraud, | 0:15:35 | 0:15:40 | |
so the blue ones should
not cost more. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
They'll start appearing in 2019. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:45 | |
People who already have a passport
have no need to do | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
anything at the moment. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:48 | |
Even at that point, if people
still have time left | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
on their passport we're not asking
them to change at that point. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:54 | |
But obviously people can renew it
at whatever point they want, | 0:15:54 | 0:15:56 | |
should they wish to move
to a new passport. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
Brexit is tough. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
Changing the passport
colour relatively easy. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
But like Brexit, it is dividing
the nation between those who say, | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
"At last", and those who say
"Why bother"? | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
Tom Symonds, BBC News
at the Passport Office. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:13 | |
Two Conservative MPs facing
allegations of inappropriate | 0:16:13 | 0:16:14 | |
behaviour have been
cleared of breaching | 0:16:14 | 0:16:17 | |
the party's code of conduct. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
An independent panel found
that the former Work | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
and Pensions Secretary,
Stephen Crabb , who was accused | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
of sending suggestive text messages
to a young woman he interviewed | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
for a job, had fallen short
of expected standards. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
However, the panel said
he hadn't harassed her. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
He has made an unreserved apology. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:34 | |
The panel also threw out claims
that the MP Chris Pincher had made | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
an unwanted pass at a Tory activist. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:45 | |
It's a growing problem in countries
like the Philippines, | 0:16:45 | 0:16:47 | |
children put to work in front
of webcams, forced to perform sex | 0:16:47 | 0:16:50 | |
shows for paedophiles watching
on the other side of the world. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
In 2013 a Dutch organisation tried
to find out how big the problem | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
was by using the fake online profile
of a ten-year-old Filipina girl. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
They called her Sweetie. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:05 | |
More than 1,000 men offered her
money to perform for them. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:09 | |
Now the team behind Sweetie
are launching a new project, | 0:17:09 | 0:17:13 | |
this time targeting individual
predators themselves, | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
and the software's being offered
to police forces across the world. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
From Holland, Angus
Crawford reports. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:22 | |
Online, undercover,
searching chat rooms, | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
looking for predators. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
Sweetie is back. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
Always it's about sex. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:32 | |
And always about adults
who want to talk about sex. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:37 | |
Look, he's British, like many
others, and remember | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
they are talking to what they think
is an 11-year-old girl. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:42 | |
Remember this? | 0:17:42 | 0:17:46 | |
I'm not real. | 0:17:46 | 0:17:48 | |
The computer-generated model... | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
Back then, Sweetie needed human
operators to type her chats online. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:52 | |
The new version is different. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:57 | |
They're popping up. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
Fully automated, she can
now handle hundreds | 0:18:01 | 0:18:03 | |
of conversations at the same time. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
So you could be getting
the information on thousands of men? | 0:18:06 | 0:18:10 | |
There is no end. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
Sweetie's avatar has been retired
and replaced by two new ones, | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
sometimes being shown
to predators via webcam. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
But we can't show you or they'd
be no use any more. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:24 | |
They invite him into their house,
which is the cybersex den... | 0:18:24 | 0:18:28 | |
So, why is this new campaign? | 0:18:28 | 0:18:31 | |
Here's why. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
In the Philippines more and more
children are being forced to sell | 0:18:34 | 0:18:37 | |
sex to foreigners via webcam. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
Five people were arrested
and there were more than 600 foreign | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
customers in the network. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:45 | |
He has turned on his camera... | 0:18:45 | 0:18:49 | |
Sweetie first showed us
the scale of the problem. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
Now the team is going on the
offensive against men like this. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
He's naked and he thinks
he knows you're just 12. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:58 | |
Exactly. | 0:18:58 | 0:18:59 | |
And he wants you... | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
To be naked... | 0:19:01 | 0:19:02 | |
To turn on your camera... | 0:19:02 | 0:19:03 | |
Be naked, as well. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
I think he will... | 0:19:05 | 0:19:05 | |
Take off his trousers. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
Their details could be
passed to the police. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:09 | |
And they'll get a nasty shock. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:13 | |
An automatic message sent
straight to their inbox. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:17 | |
That will have a major
impact on their behaviour. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
We know who you are,
we know where you are, | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
we know what you want. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:23 | |
Stop this. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:27 | |
Sweetie's job was to raise
awareness, not catch criminals. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
This man, Australian Scott Hanson,
was one of the few to be prosecuted. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:35 | |
But in many countries this kind
of evidence doesn't count. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
Some police forces support
the project, others don't. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:44 | |
But the Sweetie team go on,
scouring chat rooms, | 0:19:44 | 0:19:49 | |
turning the same technology used
to exploit children back against | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
the predators who seek them out. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:55 | |
Angus Crawford, BBC News. | 0:19:55 | 0:20:01 | |
A new migrant crisis
is unfolding in Greece, | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
where the authorities are struggling
to cope with thousands of asylum | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
seekers now being held
on islands close to Turkey. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
The deal reached between
the European Union and Turkey | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
at the height of the migrant crisis
last year reduced the number | 0:20:11 | 0:20:14 | |
of arrivals but hasn't
stopped them completely. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:16 | |
More than 50,000 have arrived
since that deal was signed. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:18 | |
Our Europe correspondent
Damian Grammaticas sent this special | 0:20:18 | 0:20:23 | |
report from the Moria camp
on the Greek island of Lesbos. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:29 | |
Nestled on a Greek hillside,
Europe's dirty secret, Moria camp, | 0:20:29 | 0:20:36 | |
bursting at its seams. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
It's so full families are forced
to sleep outside the wire, | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
all around on the ground,
human excrement. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:47 | |
This is Europe's migration
policy in action. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:51 | |
More than 6000 squeezed into a camp
built for a third that number. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:56 | |
The waiting, stuck in this
place, grinds many down. | 0:20:56 | 0:21:01 | |
At night we went into Moria
to see for ourselves. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
What strikes you first
is the rubbish, everywhere, | 0:21:04 | 0:21:08 | |
and tents crammed into every corner
because thousands are still arriving | 0:21:08 | 0:21:12 | |
in Greece from Turkey every month. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
My tent. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:15 | |
My baby. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:18 | |
Masuma's family, from Afghanistan,
came two months ago. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:23 | |
15. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:24 | |
15 people. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:25 | |
How many children? | 0:21:25 | 0:21:26 | |
Six children. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:27 | |
How is the situation
in this tent for you? | 0:21:27 | 0:21:29 | |
Very, very difficult. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
It's the policy of Greece and the EU
to keep the arrivals | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
here on the island. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
Processing their claims is slow,
so numbers are rising. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
Winter is here, and the
conditions are grim. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:47 | |
Sina and his family from Iran
were re-cooking food given to them | 0:21:47 | 0:21:50 | |
for lunch to try to make
it more palatable. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
Warm water. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:53 | |
No warm water. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:54 | |
Not shower. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:57 | |
No shower. | 0:21:57 | 0:21:58 | |
Toilet? | 0:21:58 | 0:21:59 | |
Toilet, no toilet. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
We shower inside the
tent with cool water. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:06 | |
And Moria's toilets are filthy. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
There's no running water,
so people have to use bottled | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
water to try to flush. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
That's why many choose to defecate
in the fields outside. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:18 | |
What you have to keep
reminding yourself here | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
is that we're in Europe. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
This camp has received
funding from the EU. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
So this is how Europe is treating
some of those who are coming | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
here seeking protection. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:30 | |
There's no question that
it's pretty shocking. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
And those who can't find space
in the camp are even worse off. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:38 | |
So this is it? | 0:22:38 | 0:22:39 | |
A piece of plastic and a couple
of blankets are all that | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
Adnan from Syria has. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:44 | |
His 17-year-old wife
is four months pregnant. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
Officially, pregnant women
should be a priority, | 0:22:48 | 0:22:49 | |
but the system isn't working. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
TRANSLATION: It's terrible.
I'm always cold. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:56 | |
They gave me a prescription,
vitamins and medicine for my baby, | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
but I have no money to buy them. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
I don't know what to do
and who to ask for help. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:06 | |
So who should help these people? | 0:23:06 | 0:23:11 | |
The EU continues to argue about it. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
And as the cost of Europe's
indecisiveness, the desperate | 0:23:13 | 0:23:15 | |
and the destitute, living a sort
of limbo, dumped here | 0:23:15 | 0:23:17 | |
on the edge of Europe. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:22 | |
Damian Grammaticas, BBC
News, Lesbos in Greece. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:30 | |
How do you keep the memories
of the Holocaust alive to answer | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
the questions of future generations? | 0:23:33 | 0:23:34 | |
Holocaust survivor Eva Schloss,
the step-sister of Anne Frank, | 0:23:34 | 0:23:36 | |
has been taking part
in a ground-breaking interactive | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
project that will allow people
to ask her hundreds of questions | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
about her life and will preserve her
testimony long into the future. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
Reeta Chakrabarti has
been to meet her. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:52 | |
Three, two, one, go ahead. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:53 | |
Meet Eva Schloss. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:54 | |
She's 88, and survived
the horrors of Auschwitz. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
She spent days being filmed
recounting her past, | 0:23:57 | 0:23:59 | |
so that people now and in the future
can question her virtual self | 0:23:59 | 0:24:02 | |
about what happened. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
My name is Eva Schloss. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:08 | |
Would you like to ask me some
questions about my life? | 0:24:08 | 0:24:13 | |
Survivors are worrying what will
happen when we are not around | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
anymore, who is going to continue
telling the story? | 0:24:16 | 0:24:19 | |
Because we think
it is very important. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:23 | |
Now, at the Museum of
Jewish Heritage in New York, | 0:24:23 | 0:24:27 | |
people can directly interview Eva
about what it was like in Auschwitz, | 0:24:27 | 0:24:33 | |
how she survived, and how
it's affected her since. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
One of the questions,
what was your most terrible | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
moment in the camp? | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
One day, my mother was
selected to be gassed. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
And we were separated. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:49 | |
And I thought, you know,
I had lost her. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
But through a miracle she was saved. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
And about three months
later, we were reunited. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:59 | |
Over five days, Eva answered more
than 1000 questions about her story. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
And while she was doing so,
a film-maker recorded the process. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:07 | |
I think what's different about this
experience is it puts the viewer | 0:25:07 | 0:25:09 | |
in a really active role. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:13 | |
So instead of sort of passively
watching a movie or reading a book, | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
you're sort of forced to think
of your own question, | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
what you want to ask. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:21 | |
And this is more or less
the only picture I have | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
with my mother and my father and me. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
Because my father usually
took all the pictures. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:33 | |
Eva Schloss lost her father
and her brother in the Holocaust. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
Remarkably, she says she has no
hatred or bitterness in her heart. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:38 | |
But she does want people
to listen and to learn. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:41 | |
This is what we have
to teach our young people, | 0:25:41 | 0:25:44 | |
to get involved what goes on. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:47 | |
And to, if they see things
going wrong, to speak out. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:53 | |
Technology is helping to prepare
for the time when the survivors | 0:25:53 | 0:25:56 | |
of this monstrous crime
are no longer alive. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
It means Eva Schloss can
continue telling her story | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
for many decades to come. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
Reeta Chakrabarti, BBC News. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:10 |
