0:00:06 > 0:00:10Tonight at ten, Theresa May defends the Government's
0:00:10 > 0:00:13handling of the NHS, as she prepares a cabinet reshuffle.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16Outlining her plans for the new year, she insists
0:00:16 > 0:00:18the health service is performing better than before, but admits
0:00:18 > 0:00:24"nothing is perfect".
0:00:24 > 0:00:29There is more for us to do. We have planned for the winter pressures
0:00:29 > 0:00:34this year. We did put some more money in and there has been
0:00:34 > 0:00:37planning, and hospitals have been dealing with it in different ways.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42We'll be looking at the debate surrounding NHS funding
0:00:42 > 0:00:44and what to expect from tomorrow's cabinet reshuffle.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Also tonight...
0:00:45 > 0:00:48Some of the UK's biggest retailers agree to stop selling acid
0:00:48 > 0:00:50and corrosive chemicals to curb violent assaults.
0:00:50 > 0:00:59And gearing up for the Golden Globes...
0:00:59 > 0:01:01why black will be the colour on the red carpet this year.
0:01:01 > 0:01:02And England are heading for defeat
0:01:02 > 0:01:05in the final Ashes Test, needing to bat all day in Sydney
0:01:05 > 0:01:15just to get a draw.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Good evening.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28The Prime Minister has defended her government's
0:01:28 > 0:01:30handling of the NHS, as she set out her plans
0:01:30 > 0:01:35for the coming year, including a cabinet reshuffle due tomorrow.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Theresa May insists the NHS has never been better prepared
0:01:37 > 0:01:40for winter pressures, and described thousands
0:01:40 > 0:01:44of postponed operations as "part of the plan" to cope.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Tomorrow's reshuffle, prompted by the forced resignation
0:01:46 > 0:01:48of the First Secretary of State Damian Green, was described
0:01:48 > 0:01:50by Labour as a PR exercise.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54Our political correspondent Eleanor Garnier reports.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58A new year, perhaps a fresh start after a torrid 2017
0:01:58 > 0:02:02in which Theresa May lost her majority in the general
0:02:02 > 0:02:05election, faced a rebellion from some of her own MPs,
0:02:05 > 0:02:12was forced to deal with Cabinet resignations and even had
0:02:12 > 0:02:13to sack her second-in-command, Damian Green.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15It means she starts the year with a reshuffle.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Well, no prizes for guessing, Andrew, that obviously,
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Damian Green's departure before Christmas means some
0:02:19 > 0:02:26changes do have to be made.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Speaking exclusively to the BBC, the Prime Minister has made clear
0:02:29 > 0:02:32that she wants her government to be about more than just Brexit,
0:02:32 > 0:02:35insisting she is in listening mode.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38One of the clear messages we got was that there are a number of areas
0:02:38 > 0:02:46in which people were concerned about what we were proposing.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49So just as we've looked at issues on school funding, on tuition fees,
0:02:49 > 0:02:52on housing and we're taking forward approaches in relation to that,
0:02:52 > 0:02:55on this issue of fox-hunting, what I can say is that there
0:02:55 > 0:03:05won't be a vote during this Parliament.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10That decision to scrap a vote that could have seen fox hunting return
0:03:10 > 0:03:12is part of an attempt to win over new voters and those who have
0:03:12 > 0:03:17drifted away, just as with plans to plant 50 million more trees and the
0:03:17 > 0:03:22party's renewed focus on the environment.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24But the new year has already brought in old problems,
0:03:24 > 0:03:26under pressure on rising train fares, and claims
0:03:26 > 0:03:33that this winter crisis is the toughest yet for the NHS.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36The NHS has actually been better prepared for this winter pressure
0:03:36 > 0:03:37than it has been before.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38You mentioned operations being postponed.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40That was part of the plan.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Of course, we want to ensure that those operations can be
0:03:43 > 0:03:45reinstated as soon as possible, but it's about making sure
0:03:45 > 0:03:48that those who most urgently need care are able to get that treatment
0:03:48 > 0:03:49when they need it.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Labour's blamed Government cuts for the problems in the NHS
0:03:52 > 0:03:54this winter and warned the Prime Minister against promoting
0:03:54 > 0:04:00the Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, in this week's reshuffle.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04She hasn't got a plan to get those people off
0:04:04 > 0:04:05the trolleys in corridors, those elderly people
0:04:05 > 0:04:07this freezing January, being treated in ambulances.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10She's got no plan for them.
0:04:10 > 0:04:15Her only plan, apparently, is to promote this Health Secretary.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17They should be demoting this Health Secretary.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18If she promotes this Health Secretary tomorrow,
0:04:18 > 0:04:25it is a betrayal of those 75,000 people in the back of ambulances.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27The Prime Minister said today she's not a quitter,
0:04:27 > 0:04:30and she'll want and need the best possible team around her to get her
0:04:30 > 0:04:32through what many predict will be a tough year ahead.
0:04:32 > 0:04:37Eleanor Garnier, BBC News, Westminster.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Well, Theresa May insists the NHS is being properly funded,
0:04:41 > 0:04:43despite accusations from Labour.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47The NHS Confederation, which represents health service
0:04:47 > 0:04:49employers, has called for a major new study of costs.
0:04:49 > 0:04:57Our Health Editor Hugh Pym has more.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58There's 73 outstanding ambulances right now.
0:04:58 > 0:05:07It was a striking image from a week of intense pressure on the NHS.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11Leah Butler-Smith's video of ambulances queueing at a hospital
0:05:11 > 0:05:14with her mother waited, even as she was having a stroke.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Events like these have fired up a new debate
0:05:16 > 0:05:17on the NHS and its funding.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Health spending needs to keep rising to pay for new medicines and meet
0:05:20 > 0:05:22the sometimes complex needs of a population which
0:05:22 > 0:05:24is living longer.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28The percentage of the population aged over 65 in the UK was under 15%
0:05:28 > 0:05:32in the 1970s and is projected to get close to 25% by 2044.
0:05:32 > 0:05:40Health spending across the UK has grown a lot since the 1950s,
0:05:40 > 0:05:42shown here after adjusting for inflation, and has now reached
0:05:42 > 0:05:45more than £140 billion per year.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49Average annual government spending on health since the 1950s has gone
0:05:49 > 0:05:52up around 4% a year in real terms.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54But under the coalition government from 2010,
0:05:54 > 0:05:58the average increase in England was only just over 1% a year.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03Under the Conservatives in the last couple of years,
0:06:03 > 0:06:06the average increases have been over 2%, but most in the health world
0:06:06 > 0:06:10argue that it hasn't been enough to keep up with patient demand.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Now there are calls for urgent new thinking on what the NHS needs
0:06:13 > 0:06:18and how it should be paid for.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20The NHS and social care are not sustainable under
0:06:20 > 0:06:22current Government plans, and we have told them
0:06:22 > 0:06:32that repeatedly.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35It's time now for a wake-up call not just for the government,
0:06:35 > 0:06:38but for the whole political class to face up to the fact that over
0:06:38 > 0:06:40the next ten or years, health and social care
0:06:40 > 0:06:41will need additional funding.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44We need some objective evidence to demonstrate what is required over
0:06:44 > 0:06:47that period and as a society, we need to think and reflect
0:06:47 > 0:06:49on whether we are prepared to put in the funding that
0:06:49 > 0:06:50will be required.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Few doubt that the NHS could be more efficient,
0:06:53 > 0:06:55but in its 70th birthday year, there are growing demands
0:06:55 > 0:06:58for a cross-party approach to work out how the service can be financed
0:06:58 > 0:07:00in the decades ahead.
0:07:00 > 0:07:06Hugh Pym, BBC News.
0:07:06 > 0:07:11Let's return to Eleanor Garnier, who's outside Number Ten for us.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17What are you hearing about the reshuffle tomorrow?This is a
0:07:17 > 0:07:20long-awaited reshuffle and of course, Theresa May will want to be
0:07:20 > 0:07:24seen to be on the front foot, choosing the people around her,
0:07:24 > 0:07:27building our own team. Her supporters will suggest that a
0:07:27 > 0:07:31reshuffle is a sign of a strengthened Prime Minister. Others,
0:07:31 > 0:07:39though, might ask, if those in the top jobs stay the same, is this any
0:07:39 > 0:07:42more than tinkering around the edges? Labour have called this a
0:07:42 > 0:07:46desperate PR exercise. When it comes to the winners and losers in this
0:07:46 > 0:07:49reshuffle, I would be surprised if those in some of the biggest jobs
0:07:49 > 0:07:53are moved. The Chancellor, the Foreign Secretary, the Home
0:07:53 > 0:07:58Secretary and the Brexit secretary, for example. I think we should
0:07:58 > 0:08:02expect a more diverse team, though, perhaps an emphasis on bringing in
0:08:02 > 0:08:07more women and more MPs from ethnic minorities into the government. I
0:08:07 > 0:08:11think Theresa May also might want to balance her cabinet in terms of
0:08:11 > 0:08:16Brexit. The big issue is dominating the government's time and effort.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20And remember, many people think the toughest decisions are still to come
0:08:20 > 0:08:24in those Brexit negotiations and with them, the opportunity for
0:08:24 > 0:08:29trouble and testing times for the Prime Minister.Eleanor Garnier,
0:08:29 > 0:08:31thank you.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Donald Trump's former Chief Strategist, Steve Bannon,
0:08:33 > 0:08:35has expressed regret for comments attributed to him
0:08:35 > 0:08:39in a book depicting the president as being unfit for office.
0:08:39 > 0:08:44In a statement, he said his remarks were aimed at Mr Trump's
0:08:44 > 0:08:47former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, not the President.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50Mr Bannon's also rowed back on quotes in the book
0:08:50 > 0:08:53about Mr Trump's son, Donald Junior.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58Major retailers have signed up to a voluntary ban
0:08:58 > 0:09:01on selling corrosive liquids to under-18s in a bid to
0:09:01 > 0:09:04reduce the number of acid attacks.
0:09:04 > 0:09:09Drain cleaner and paint stripper are among the substances.
0:09:09 > 0:09:10The Government is promising new legislation.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Here's our Home Affairs Correspondent Dominic Casciani.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16Arthur Collins, jailed for 20 years for an appalling nightclub attack.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17Watch this CCTV.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20You can see him throwing acid on his victims,
0:09:20 > 0:09:2322 people left with burns, a crime involving a household
0:09:23 > 0:09:30product that's been growing, year on year.
0:09:30 > 0:09:31Police recorded more than 500 attacks involving corrosive
0:09:31 > 0:09:36substances in England and Wales in the year to last April.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Officials think the true figure could be twice as high.
0:09:39 > 0:09:44Ministers have launched an action plan, including a review of how
0:09:44 > 0:09:48cases are prosecuted and first aid training for police.
0:09:48 > 0:09:58And from today, a voluntary ban by DIY chains including
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Supermarkets will also challenge underage customers
0:10:05 > 0:10:10just like they would if they were buying alcohol.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Acid attacks are the most horrific crimes, and we want to make
0:10:13 > 0:10:15sure we restrict access, that we support victims,
0:10:15 > 0:10:16that we police these attacks really effectively.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Jabad Hussain was attacked last year.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Police officers poured water into his eyes to save his sight.
0:10:21 > 0:10:22So what does he think of the plan?
0:10:22 > 0:10:25I'd like to give welcome and thanks to the Government
0:10:25 > 0:10:26for what they're trying to do.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30But this is not the right way to do that and handle this problem.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32There's not enough police on the streets to chase them.
0:10:32 > 0:10:33This is my home city.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34I shouldn't tolerate that.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35You shouldn't tolerate that.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37No one should tolerate that.
0:10:37 > 0:10:42Thousands of independent hardware shops selling household chemicals
0:10:42 > 0:10:44are also being asked to sign up.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47But while a shopkeeper can challenge a teenager at the counter,
0:10:47 > 0:10:49adult criminals will still be able to buy the products
0:10:49 > 0:10:50on the high street and online.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Only one in five attacks are carried out by under 18s,
0:10:53 > 0:10:57so four in five adults will still be able to get hold of acid and use
0:10:57 > 0:11:00them as they have been doing over the last year or two.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02These voluntary measures can only go so far.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Ministers ultimately want to create a new offence of carrying
0:11:04 > 0:11:06over-the-counter chemicals in public without good reason.
0:11:06 > 0:11:13But so much of this type of crime remains unknown,
0:11:13 > 0:11:16so academics are now looking at what motivates a criminal to turn
0:11:16 > 0:11:18a household product like drain cleaner into a weapon,
0:11:18 > 0:11:19one that has lifelong consequences.
0:11:19 > 0:11:24Dominic Casciani, BBC News, at the Home Office in central London.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28A new round of strikes on the railways in England is due
0:11:28 > 0:11:30to begin at midnight, just as millions of people
0:11:30 > 0:11:32are returning to work after the Christmas break.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Our business correspondent Joe Lynam, is at London's
0:11:34 > 0:11:35Waterloo station.
0:11:35 > 0:11:41Joe.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45More than 1000 cane services and hundreds of thousands of passengers
0:11:45 > 0:11:50including some from here at Waterloo station, one of Britain's busiest
0:11:50 > 0:11:55stations, will be affected by this strike. In total, five companies are
0:11:55 > 0:11:58affected, Southern, Northern, south-western, Greater Anglia and
0:11:58 > 0:12:02Merseyrail. With the exception of Southern, there will be three days
0:12:02 > 0:12:06of strikes this week starting tonight at midnight the 24 hours and
0:12:06 > 0:12:11then again on Wednesday and then again on Friday. In terms of
0:12:11 > 0:12:15mitigation, some of the train companies will be offering a rail
0:12:15 > 0:12:18replacement bus service, and some rival train companies will be
0:12:18 > 0:12:22accepting tickets even though they are not directly involved in the
0:12:22 > 0:12:27dispute, which centres on the role of guards and one person operated
0:12:27 > 0:12:33trains. As ever, passengers are caught up in the dispute and it is
0:12:33 > 0:12:37only a few days since rail fares went up substantially at the start
0:12:37 > 0:12:43of the year.Joe Lynam, many thanks.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Let's take a look at some of the day's other top stories.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50There's to be a review into how the Parole Board makes decisions,
0:12:50 > 0:12:53after the imminent release was announced of the serial sex
0:12:53 > 0:12:56offender John Worboys.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58The former London taxi driver was convicted of 20 offences,
0:12:58 > 0:13:00including rape, but police say they believe he attacked
0:13:00 > 0:13:01many more women.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03He's been given parole, after serving a minimum
0:13:03 > 0:13:06term of eight years.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08The German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, says she's
0:13:08 > 0:13:10optimistic that her centre right Christian Democrat Party
0:13:10 > 0:13:12can reach a coalition deal with the centre-left Social
0:13:12 > 0:13:13Democrats.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16Five days of talks have begun, three months after Mrs Merkel failed
0:13:16 > 0:13:25to win a Parliamentary majority.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27A 60-year-old man has been killed in Sweden
0:13:27 > 0:13:30after picking up an object which exploded in his hand.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31Police say it was probably a hand grenade.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33The object was found outside an underground station
0:13:33 > 0:13:35in a suburb of Stockholm.
0:13:35 > 0:13:41The incident is not being linked to terrorism.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43The BBC's China Editor Carrie Gracie has resigned from her post,
0:13:43 > 0:13:45citing pay inequality with male colleagues doing
0:13:45 > 0:13:46the same kind of work.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49In an open letter to licence fee payers, she accused the corporation
0:13:49 > 0:13:51of having a "secretive and illegal pay structure".
0:13:51 > 0:13:53The BBC has responded saying a review last year showed "no
0:13:53 > 0:13:55systemic discrimination against women" among
0:13:55 > 0:13:56rank and file staff.
0:13:56 > 0:14:06Our Media Editor Amol Rajan is here.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13What does the letter a?Carrie Gracie is a hugely respected
0:14:13 > 0:14:17international editor who has been at the BBC for over 30 years, and her
0:14:17 > 0:14:21central allegation is that the BBC discriminate illegally against women
0:14:21 > 0:14:25by paying many of them less than men doing equivalent jobs. Her key point
0:14:25 > 0:14:29is that she says she doesn't want a pay rise, she wants to be paid the
0:14:29 > 0:14:34same as men who do an equivalent job of being an international editor.
0:14:34 > 0:14:39The BBC say they take this issue seriously, that they have undertaken
0:14:39 > 0:14:42three internal audits of pay and that they go further than other
0:14:42 > 0:14:46public organisations on the issue of inequality. But this is a moment of
0:14:46 > 0:14:50danger for the corporation because last summer it was forced to publish
0:14:50 > 0:14:55the salaries of staff getting over £150,000. Now they will be on the
0:14:55 > 0:14:59front page of tomorrow morning's Times. Some 200 women have
0:14:59 > 0:15:02complained internally and there is huge anger among female staff about
0:15:02 > 0:15:07this. This is not just about internal staff management, it is
0:15:07 > 0:15:11also about public perceptions of the corporation. There is a danger that
0:15:11 > 0:15:16if Carrie Gracie's letter leads to legal action, then BBC News could be
0:15:16 > 0:15:18generating headlines for all the wrong reasons.Many thanks.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21The film awards season kicks off in three hours' time,

0:15:25 > 0:15:26by the Harvey Weinstein scandal.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Stars of film and television will be wearing black

0:16:00 > 0:16:10to deal with this and not put up with any more.

0:16:39 > 0:16:43Films, because they're larger than life, they glorify people,
0:16:43 > 0:16:46and I couldn't bear the thought of being in a movie that glorified
0:16:46 > 0:16:47somebody who had hurt people.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Is what is happening in Hollywood a permanent,
0:16:49 > 0:16:52significant change, do you think?

0:17:46 > 0:17:53The final day of the Ashes starts in just over an hour.
0:17:53 > 0:17:58England have already lost the series and will lose the final Test
0:17:58 > 0:18:01unless they can bat out the day for an improbable draw, and
0:18:01 > 0:18:04their cause hasn't been helped by the news that the England captain

0:18:06 > 0:18:09Let's get the latest from Sydney.

0:18:12 > 0:18:17in just over an hour.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21What is the latest?The effect of that batting effort in the soaring
0:18:21 > 0:18:25temperatures in Sydney has taken its toll on Joe Root. He is in hospital
0:18:25 > 0:18:28with dehydration. It's not clear whether he will be able to resume
0:18:28 > 0:18:32his innings and come to the crease this morning. He was part of
0:18:32 > 0:18:35England's last chance of taking anything from this match after their
0:18:35 > 0:18:38top order subsided. He was there with Jonny Bairstow at the end, but

0:19:00 > 0:19:06Australia need six wickets to win the series 4-0. England have been
0:19:06 > 0:19:09disappointing from the start. They have not completely fallen apart,
0:19:09 > 0:19:12but they simply haven't competed often enough in enough Test matches
0:19:12 > 0:19:18in this series. If Australia can complete this victory, questions
0:19:18 > 0:19:21will be asked about what went wrong for England over here and how
0:19:21 > 0:19:27English cricket can stop it happening again.Patrick Gearey at
