0:00:13 > 0:00:14Tonight at 22.00:
0:00:14 > 0:00:16tensions in Cabinet, as Boris Johnson is rebuked
0:00:16 > 0:00:18by the Prime Minister, for demanding more health spending.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21REPORTER:Do you want to be the Chancellor, Foreign Secretary,
0:00:21 > 0:00:22or perhaps Health Secretary?
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Mr Johnson was told that Cabinet discussions should remain private,
0:00:24 > 0:00:26as the Chancellor stepped in to add his case.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28Mr Johnson is the Foreign Secretary.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31I gave the Health Secretary an extra £6 billion at the recent Budget
0:00:31 > 0:00:34and we'll look at departmental allocations again at the Spending
0:00:34 > 0:00:42Review when that takes place.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44But as winter pressures take their toll, in many hospitals,
0:00:44 > 0:00:49the Health Secretary acknowledges that more money would be welcome.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52I don't think any Health Secretary is ever going to not support
0:00:52 > 0:00:57potential extra resources for his or her department.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59We'll have the latest on the Cabinet divisions,
0:00:59 > 0:01:02and we'll be looking at the pressure on NHS finances in England.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Also tonight:
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Scotland Yard is investigating a new allegation of sexual assault
0:01:07 > 0:01:11made against the convicted rapist, John Worboys.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Rupert Murdoch's plan for a takeover of Sky has been provisionally
0:01:13 > 0:01:19blocked by regulators.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21We report from the remote waters of Antarctica,
0:01:21 > 0:01:23where scientists are demanding protection for the unique
0:01:23 > 0:01:30ecosystems they've found.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34And the South African jazz musician, and campaigner against apartheid,
0:01:34 > 0:01:40Hugh Masekela, has died at the age of 78.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43And coming up in Sportsday later in the hour on BBC News:
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Manchester City look to reach Wembley for next month's League Cup
0:01:45 > 0:01:52final but it's anothger tough match against Bristol City.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Good evening.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson, has been rebuked
0:02:13 > 0:02:15by both the Prime Minister and the Chancellor
0:02:15 > 0:02:21after he let it be known that he wanted substantial
0:02:21 > 0:02:26new spending on the NHS in England.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28At today's Cabinet meeting, Theresa May reminded colleagues that
0:02:28 > 0:02:29discussions should be held in private.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31And the Chancellor pointed out that he'd already
0:02:31 > 0:02:33allocated extra resources in last year's Budget.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36The row underlined concerns among some Conservative MPs
0:02:36 > 0:02:38about the Government's handling of the winter pressures on the NHS,
0:02:38 > 0:02:41as our political editor Laura Kuenssberg reports.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44She can come out in a wheelchair.
0:02:44 > 0:02:45That's our treatment room anyway, so that's not
0:02:45 > 0:02:47going to free up a bed.
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Long waits...
0:02:48 > 0:02:50This gentleman has just come in.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Long days, another glimpse of the pressure at the University
0:02:52 > 0:02:56of North Tees Hospital, like wards around the country.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59We need more beds in the hospital.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03We need more beds for them to go to.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Number Ten knows hospitals, patients and the public looks
0:03:06 > 0:03:09at them for answers.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11However unwelcome visitors making demands really are.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14REPORTER:Do you want to be the Chancellor, Foreign Secretary?
0:03:14 > 0:03:18He called for more cash at Cabinet for the health service,
0:03:18 > 0:03:21making public before, what he planned to raise in private.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25The Prime Minister and others, unimpressed.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Inside, Boris Johnson was told off for letting it be known he had
0:03:28 > 0:03:29been making such a call.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32REPORTER:Foreign Secretary, did you ask for more money for the NHS?
0:03:32 > 0:03:38No word after either way, from him.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41But other ministers didn't quite manage to hide
0:03:41 > 0:03:43their annoyance at what he'd done.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Did the Foreign Secretary raise the NHS this morning?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48You know as well as I do, you can't go discussing Cabinet.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50The Foreign Secretary has been discussing the Cabinet.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Clearly, many MPs and the Foreign Secretary are frustrated that not
0:03:52 > 0:03:53enough is being done?
0:03:53 > 0:03:55We have record funding going into the NHS.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58We put in extra money in for the winter pressures.
0:03:58 > 0:04:03We've got a really good story to tell.
0:04:03 > 0:04:11The Health Secretary hurried into a waiting car,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15but is not surprisingly unsympathetic to the idea of more
0:04:15 > 0:04:16taxpayers' money.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18This has stirred up a lot of fuss, but don't expect
0:04:18 > 0:04:20the Foreign Secretary's pronouncements to make
0:04:20 > 0:04:21much difference soon.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24But it's tricky for Number Ten, not just because he is a loud voice
0:04:24 > 0:04:26who doesn't always toe the line.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Not just because there are genuine concerns about how
0:04:29 > 0:04:32the health service is coping, but because there is an anxiety
0:04:32 > 0:04:35among some Tory MPs that Number Ten is short of ideas and short
0:04:35 > 0:04:36on ambition too.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37Boris is right to speak out.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40It's not his brief and people might be upset about that,
0:04:40 > 0:04:42but if people wanted to speak out like Boris, then
0:04:42 > 0:04:43they should have done.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Why the Foreign Secretary is making this point, is anybody's guess.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49But I think Boris has set out his stall on Brexit,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52now he setting out his stall on the NHS and no doubt
0:04:52 > 0:05:00we'll see Boris setting out his stall on a lot of issues.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06I think Boris has Bor-exited himself from Cabinet
0:05:06 > 0:05:11collective responsibility.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13The man in charge of the Government's cheque-book
0:05:13 > 0:05:14hardly sounds sympathetic.
0:05:14 > 0:05:15Mr Johnson is the Foreign Secretary.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18I gave the Health Secretary an extra £6 billion at the recent budget
0:05:18 > 0:05:21and we will look at departmental allocations again at the Spending
0:05:21 > 0:05:22Review when that takes place.
0:05:22 > 0:05:23Thank you.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26Sources suggest the Health Secretary is not plotting with Mr Johnson,
0:05:26 > 0:05:27but perhaps every little helps.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I don't think any Health Secretary is ever going to not support
0:05:30 > 0:05:38potential extra resources for his or her department.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44There was agreement in Cabinet that money that may come back to the UK
0:05:44 > 0:05:46after Brexit should be spent on priorities like
0:05:46 > 0:05:47the health service.
0:05:47 > 0:05:54But that is set against Labour's demand for an extra 5 billion now.
0:05:54 > 0:05:59For patients like Blanche, who we met struggling back
0:05:59 > 0:06:02in Stockton, waiting on a trolley, the NHS often helps them
0:06:02 > 0:06:03to a rapid recovery.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Yes, I feel a lot better now, than I did, yeah.
0:06:06 > 0:06:11But for politicians who oversee the service,
0:06:11 > 0:06:12there's rarely a simple case.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Laura Kuennsburg, BBC News, Westminster.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Ministers insist that there are more doctors and nurses employed
0:06:17 > 0:06:20in the National Health Service in England than ever before.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23And this year spending on England's NHS will go up by more
0:06:23 > 0:06:24than £2 billion.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26But at the same time, as we've been reporting,
0:06:26 > 0:06:34there have been unprecedented demands on the NHS.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39Hugh Pym is here to take a closer look at the numbers.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Well Huw, as always the NHS debate covers money -
0:06:42 > 0:06:43politicians talking about billions of pounds.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45The Chancellor mentioned £6 billion more in the Budget
0:06:45 > 0:06:48for the NHS in England but that's spread over five years.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51There are growing demands now for radical thinking about health
0:06:51 > 0:06:53and social care funding, trying to work out what's needed
0:06:53 > 0:06:56in future decades and how much extra money taxpayers will have to find.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00The workforce is under pressure.
0:07:00 > 0:07:05Vacant nursing and midwifery posts reached a new high of more
0:07:05 > 0:07:08than 34,000 in England.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11That's added to the debate about the need for long-term planning.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14Some senior figures at Westminster say only a break from party politics
0:07:14 > 0:07:16will allow the right treatment of the NHS's problems.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19We need to take the long view.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23Rather than just having these short-term emergency injections
0:07:23 > 0:07:27of cash, let's properly look at the scale of demand, where that's
0:07:27 > 0:07:31coming from and how we meet it, not just for the next year or two
0:07:31 > 0:07:33years, but for the next ten years and beyond.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36So, what is the current state of the NHS?
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Well, it's added more staff, just over 10,000 more doctors
0:07:38 > 0:07:46in England since 2010.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51But they've had to cope with a rapid rise in patient numbers.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54There was a 40% increase in the number of operations carried
0:07:54 > 0:07:55out in England over the last decade.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57And over that time, attendances at A&E in England
0:07:57 > 0:07:59went up by almost 30%.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Spending across the UK has gone up.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04This graph shows the rise since 1950.
0:08:04 > 0:08:11It's now more than £140 billion a year.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14But while the UK spends 9.7% of its national income on health,
0:08:14 > 0:08:19that compares poorly with other major EU nations.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21France, on 11%, and Germany on 11.3%.
0:08:21 > 0:08:26And now NHS leaders say more money is needed.
0:08:26 > 0:08:31The system itself, the way it is designed, is not yet fit
0:08:31 > 0:08:34to deal with the challenges that are faced by a growing number
0:08:34 > 0:08:38of elderly people with a whole range of conditions.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40So we need funding change, and we also need transformation
0:08:40 > 0:08:47of the way in which services are organised.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49That's for the future but the here and now for NHS
0:08:49 > 0:08:52patients and staff is day to day stress and pressure.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54They will feel that however much debate takes place,
0:08:54 > 0:08:55solutions are needed and fast.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00Huw.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Many thanks, our health editor there, Hugh Pym with the latest look
0:09:03 > 0:09:05at the figures.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07The trial of Darren Osborne, who's accused of driving a van
0:09:07 > 0:09:10into a group of Muslims outside a mosque in north London,
0:09:10 > 0:09:12has heard that he received direct messages from far-right groups
0:09:12 > 0:09:13before the attack.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Osborne denies one charge of murder and one of attempted murder.
0:09:16 > 0:09:1851-year-old Makram Ali was killed in the incident in June last year,
0:09:18 > 0:09:25as our home affairs correspondent Daniel Sandford reports.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29The seconds just before a large white van, travelling at speed,
0:09:29 > 0:09:33smashed into a crowd of Muslim men marking Ramadan last June.
0:09:33 > 0:09:38It was the fourth attack last year and the first to target Muslims.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41The prosecution said that in the previous fortnight,
0:09:41 > 0:09:44the man on trial for the attack, Darren Osborne, had searched dozens
0:09:44 > 0:09:47of times on the Internet for ultranationalist groups
0:09:47 > 0:09:52and stories about terror attacks, like the Manchester bombing.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56The jury heard that in the 15 days before the attack,
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Darren Osborne received two direct communications from
0:09:57 > 0:10:00far right leaders.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03A direct message on Twitter from the deputy leader
0:10:03 > 0:10:07of Britain First, Jayda Fransen and a note from Tommy Robinson,
0:10:07 > 0:10:10one of the founders of the English Defence League,
0:10:10 > 0:10:13in which he talked about a nation within a nation forming beneath
0:10:13 > 0:10:17the surface in the UK.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20A nation based upon violence and on Islam.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22On the morning of the day before the attack, Osborne had
0:10:22 > 0:10:26hired a large box van from a local rental company.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29And that evening, he sat down in his local pub in Cardiff
0:10:29 > 0:10:30with a pen and paper.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33The prosecution say that's when he wrote a note,
0:10:33 > 0:10:39later found in the van, which talks about feral, inbred,
0:10:39 > 0:10:42raping Muslim men, hunting in packs.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Callum Spence, a serving soldier, was in the pub.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46He told the jury that Darren Osborne said to him,
0:10:46 > 0:10:49"all our families are going to be Muslim."
0:10:49 > 0:10:52And then, "I'm going to kill all Muslims, I'm going to take
0:10:52 > 0:10:56things into my own hands."
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Less than 28 hours later, the van Darren Osborne hired,
0:10:59 > 0:11:02killed Makram Ali and seriously injured several others.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04He denies murder and attempted murder.
0:11:04 > 0:11:11Daniel Sandford, BBC News, at Woolwich Crown Court.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13The Metropolitan Police is investigating a new allegation
0:11:13 > 0:11:15of sexual assault, made against the convicted
0:11:15 > 0:11:18rapist, John Worboys.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21BBC News understands that the claim dates back to 1997,
0:11:21 > 0:11:25and the alleged victim came forward in the past few weeks.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Worboys, who was jailed nine years ago, has been cleared for release
0:11:28 > 0:11:30by the Parole Board at the end of this month.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34Our Home Affairs Editor, Mark Easton, is at Scotland Yard.
0:11:34 > 0:11:41Mark, how do this potentially affect the plans to release John Worboys?
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Well, given the huge national outcry at the Worboys' case I'm sure the
0:11:45 > 0:11:48police will be throwing everything they can at this new investigation.
0:11:48 > 0:11:57Still in its early stages, they will be wanting to put that case together
0:11:57 > 0:12:01as quickly as possible and present it to prosecutor. The Crown
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Prosecution Service will still need to be persuaded that there is a
0:12:04 > 0:12:09reasonable chance of conviction and it is in the public interest to
0:12:09 > 0:12:14pursue this through the courts. That may not be straightforward. This
0:12:14 > 0:12:18allegation is from 1997, an allegation of sexual assault against
0:12:18 > 0:12:22John wore biens the prosecutors will need to be persuaded that it pass
0:12:22 > 0:12:31what is they call the evidential test. This is an allegation that
0:12:31 > 0:12:35preceded all those convictions in 2009. The police will pursue this
0:12:35 > 0:12:40with vigour and they will want it charge John Worboys when he is still
0:12:40 > 0:12:43in prison, held currently at Belmarsh near London, at which point
0:12:43 > 0:12:48his parole will almost certainly be rescinded and that will be a huge
0:12:48 > 0:12:55relief for many of John war boys' victims who have expressed extreme
0:12:55 > 0:12:57concern about his imminent release were jail.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Thank you very much.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Rupert Murdoch's planned £11 billion takeover of Sky has been
0:13:01 > 0:13:05provisionally blocked by regulators because of concerns it would give
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Mr Murdoch 'too much control over news providers in the UK'.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11The Competition and Markets Authority said that 21st
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Century Fox's plans were 'not in the public interest',
0:13:14 > 0:13:16but it offered some remedies to address the concerns -
0:13:16 > 0:13:24as our media editor, Amol Rajan, explains.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26For nearly three decades, Sky has entertained millions
0:13:26 > 0:13:29across Europe and through its news channel, provided a world class
0:13:29 > 0:13:32rival to the dominant BBC.
0:13:32 > 0:13:40It was the brainchild of Rupert Murdoch, who was nearly
0:13:41 > 0:13:43bankrupted by his mission to provide British viewers with greater choice.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45REPORTER: Mr Murdoch do you have anything to say
0:13:45 > 0:13:47to the victims of phone hacking?
0:13:47 > 0:13:50When in 2010-11 he bid for full control of the broadcaster,
0:13:50 > 0:13:51the phone hacking scandal at his newspapers
0:13:51 > 0:13:52scuppered his ambition.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54This is the most humble day of my life.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57The News of the World shut, but Murdoch still owns other leading
0:13:57 > 0:13:59titles such as the Times and The Sun.
0:13:59 > 0:14:04Today, however, Parliament heard that the Competition
0:14:04 > 0:14:06and Markets Authority was provisionally satisfied
0:14:06 > 0:14:07with the Murdoch's commitment to broadcasting standards
0:14:07 > 0:14:12but there remain issues over media plurality.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15It has also raised concerns that the Murdoch family trust
0:14:15 > 0:14:17would have increased influence over public opinion and
0:14:17 > 0:14:19the political agenda.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22They've basically concluded that Rupert Murdoch is too
0:14:22 > 0:14:26powerful in this country, he owns too much of our media estate
0:14:26 > 0:14:29and if he gets control of 100% of Sky that will give him
0:14:29 > 0:14:31a disproportionate advantage over his competitors
0:14:31 > 0:14:36and he'll wield even more influence over politicians.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Fox said they are disappointed by the CMA's provisional findings
0:14:39 > 0:14:41but still anticipate regulatory approval of the transaction
0:14:41 > 0:14:45by the end of June.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47The Murdochs argue that since their last bid,
0:14:47 > 0:14:52the media industry has undergone huge disruption.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55Digital giants like Netflix and Amazon have hugely increased
0:14:55 > 0:14:57competition in the TV marketplace while newspapers are under
0:14:57 > 0:15:01pressure as never before.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05But the curiosity about this story is that the fate of Sky could be
0:15:05 > 0:15:07in the hands of American, rather than British regulators.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Last year Murdoch shocked the industry by declaring
0:15:09 > 0:15:12he was selling his entertainment business to the US giant Disney.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16That deal is now being scrutinised under competition grounds in the US.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Maybe Rupert Murdoch saw this coming.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21His decision to sell up to Disney shows he was willing to part company
0:15:21 > 0:15:23with businesses that he'd lost millions of pounds on.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27The issue now is whether or not Disney is as committed
0:15:27 > 0:15:30as the Murdochs were, not just to Sky but to Sky News,
0:15:30 > 0:15:33because if they're not, well, their media plurality in Britain
0:15:33 > 0:15:38will be under threat.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40The early signs are that Disney's boss, Bob Eiger, does see
0:15:40 > 0:15:44Sky News as integral to Sky.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45But as a loss-making distraction that doesn't play
0:15:45 > 0:15:48to Disney's strengths, it'll be months before Sky's staff
0:15:48 > 0:15:51and audiences have complete clarity on their future.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55Amol Rajan, BBC News.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57Scientists have called for some of the most remote waters
0:15:57 > 0:15:59in Antarctica to be given special protection because they've
0:15:59 > 0:16:07discovered unique ecosystems in the waters of the Weddell Sea.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10For much of the year, the vast area is covered in ice.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Our environment correspondent, Claire Marshall, has travelled
0:16:12 > 0:16:14on a Greenpeace ship to the Weddell Sea, off
0:16:14 > 0:16:16the Antarctic Peninsula.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18And she was able to dive down beneath the surface
0:16:18 > 0:16:21in a submarine to see for herself what the scientists have found.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24She sent this exclusive report.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28Antarctica, the most remote continent in the world,
0:16:28 > 0:16:31encased in glacial ice thousands of feet thick.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33It's still largely unexplored and we know even less
0:16:33 > 0:16:41about the icy seas that ring it.
0:16:41 > 0:16:48Now, machines are making it possible for us to catch a glimpse.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50A mini-submarine is taking marine biologist Dr Susan Lockhart down
0:16:50 > 0:16:58into the Antarctic deep.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04Above is a land of frigid ice, below is a thriving mass of life.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06That's really pretty.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10No light penetrates this deep.
0:17:10 > 0:17:15Plants can't grow, these are all animals.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19Then it was my turn to go down with pilot John.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22We dropped much deeper.
0:17:22 > 0:17:27More than 1,000 feet down, we find a wall of life.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Sponges and corals, sea stars, feather stars, all thriving
0:17:29 > 0:17:37in complete darkness.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40A robot arm captures samples.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Some of these species have never been filmed before.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46They're threatened by an increase in fishing in the region.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50Too soon, we have to leave.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52So there's a storm apparently brewing on the surface,
0:17:52 > 0:17:55so the ship have asked us to come up.
0:17:55 > 0:18:0222, do you have a visual, over?
0:18:02 > 0:18:06We surface very close to some icebergs.
0:18:06 > 0:18:11We might have to nudge some ice out of the way, as well.
0:18:11 > 0:18:16That will be a massive chunk of ice.
0:18:16 > 0:18:23At last, the diver gets a hook on our sub.
0:18:23 > 0:18:30But then the crane breaks, we're stranded for an hour.
0:18:30 > 0:18:36It feels good to finally be down.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38That's nice.
0:18:38 > 0:18:46Yeah, yeah.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49We gathered evidence of a unique ecosystem that deserves protection.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51It's really exciting, a really dense sea bed full
0:18:51 > 0:18:53of life and huge diversity.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55And also, organisms living together creating a 3-D structure,
0:18:55 > 0:18:58so more organisms can move and these can be very vulnerable
0:18:58 > 0:19:06to disturbance and they need special protection.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10No-one could deny that this region needs protecting,
0:19:10 > 0:19:12but what is the best way to do it?
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Is a line on a map really going to make much difference,
0:19:15 > 0:19:19and who is going to police anything out here?
0:19:19 > 0:19:22The proposal to protect all these creatures and their world will be
0:19:22 > 0:19:25heard by the Antarctic nations in October.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Claire Marshall, BBC News, the Antarctic Peninsula.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34A brief look at some of the day's other news stories:
0:19:34 > 0:19:37The Ministry of Defence has regained control of a defence review
0:19:37 > 0:19:40that was expected to have proposed major cuts for the Armed Forces.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42It's being seen as a significant move and a political victory
0:19:42 > 0:19:47for the Defence Secretary, Gavin Williamson.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50The White House has announced the first state visit to the US
0:19:50 > 0:19:53since Donald Trump became President.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56The guest - in April - will be the French President,
0:19:56 > 0:19:57Emmanuel Macron.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59It will include the first formal dinner hosted
0:19:59 > 0:20:03by President Trump and the First Lady.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04Labour's main decision-making body, the National Executive Committee,
0:20:04 > 0:20:07has met for the first time since three new members -
0:20:07 > 0:20:11all from the grassroots group Momentum - were elected.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Momentum's founder, Jon Lansman, described his election to the NEC
0:20:14 > 0:20:19earlier this month as a victory for '21st-Century socialism'.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Phil Neville has been appointed Head Coach
0:20:21 > 0:20:23of England Women's football team.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25The former Manchester United and Everton star takes over
0:20:25 > 0:20:28from interim manager Mo Marley, who has been in charge
0:20:28 > 0:20:36since former boss Mark Sampson's sacking in September.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39The Norwegian Prime Minister, Erna Solberg, has told the BBC
0:20:39 > 0:20:42that the UK should push for a so-called soft Brexit.
0:20:42 > 0:20:48Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, she said the UK
0:20:48 > 0:20:52was unlikely to get a better deal than Norway - which is not a member
0:20:52 > 0:20:54of the EU, but is part of the European Economic Area.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Ms Solberg was talking to our economics editor,
0:20:56 > 0:21:02Kamal Ahmed, who's in Davos.
0:21:03 > 0:21:09Thanks very much. The Prime Minister of Norway said she was offering this
0:21:09 > 0:21:15advice as a friend, from a country that was very keen to have closer
0:21:15 > 0:21:20economic ties both with the European Union and with Britain. But she was
0:21:20 > 0:21:23certainly very clear when I caught up with her earlier today about what
0:21:23 > 0:21:25that advice entailed.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27up with her earlier today about what that advice entailed.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30We hope that there will be an agreement that we will call
0:21:30 > 0:21:33a soft Brexit, an agreement that will not put large barriers
0:21:33 > 0:21:35for the trade inside Europe again.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38That we hope they will find a good solution.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40And we are both working well with the British
0:21:40 > 0:21:42and with the EU on that.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44And the EU areunderstanding that we are integrated
0:21:44 > 0:21:46in the Single Market.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48There are three countries outside the EU who are following all
0:21:48 > 0:21:50of the internal regulations on the Single Market.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52And Norway, of course, has a very large trade
0:21:52 > 0:21:59and activity towards Britain.
0:21:59 > 0:22:06The Norwegian Prime Minister. Now, tomorrow will be Europe Day. Count
0:22:06 > 0:22:11them, the number of European leaders arriving here at the World Economic
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Forum, six in total. I have been coming here nearly ten years and I
0:22:14 > 0:22:19have not seen so many in one day. The leaders of Germany, France,
0:22:19 > 0:22:25Italy, Poland, Sweden and Greece will arrive at the World Economic
0:22:25 > 0:22:28Forum. I think they will talk about globalisation and they will say
0:22:28 > 0:22:32Europe is open for business. Something of a riposte, I think, to
0:22:32 > 0:22:38that big arrival on Friday, President Trump, who talks about
0:22:38 > 0:22:43protectionism. Leaders tomorrow in Europe, I am sure they will touch on
0:22:43 > 0:22:47Brexit, but their big message is, free trade is good for global growth
0:22:47 > 0:22:50and Europe wants to beat at the heart of that debate.
0:22:50 > 0:22:56We will catch up again tomorrow, thank you very much, from Davos.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58One of South Africa's most famous musicians,
0:22:58 > 0:23:03the jazz trumpeter Hugh Masekela, has died at the age of 78.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05He fled the country in 1960 and became a prominent campaigner
0:23:05 > 0:23:09against the system of white-minority rule, known as apartheid.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11His song Bring Him Back Home - calling for the release
0:23:11 > 0:23:14of Nelson Mandela from prison - became an international anthem
0:23:14 > 0:23:18for the anti-apartheid movement.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Today, President Zuma said Hugh Masekela had 'kept
0:23:20 > 0:23:22the torch of freedom alive', as Pumza Fihlani reports
0:23:22 > 0:23:28from South Africa.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36The trumpet has finally fallen.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38The passing of Hugh Masekela has shocked many across the country
0:23:38 > 0:23:40and around the world.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Bra Hugh, as he was affectionately known, has been described
0:23:42 > 0:23:50as 'the epitome of a life lived in full'.
0:23:53 > 0:23:59A family man, a world-renowned artist, and a philanthropist. The
0:23:59 > 0:24:0378-year-old was diagnosed with prostate cancer and had put up a
0:24:03 > 0:24:07fierce fight but last October, he was forced to cancel all his
0:24:07 > 0:24:11concerts and focus on his help.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Fellow musician and friend Yvonne Chaka Chaka says Africa has
0:24:13 > 0:24:14lost its greatest treasure.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18I think Uncle Hugh was a living legend.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21He may be gone, but his music will always be there.
0:24:21 > 0:24:28The world has lost a great icon.
0:24:28 > 0:24:29The world has lost a leader.
0:24:29 > 0:24:36The world has lost a comedian, because he was hilarious.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Where there was Uncle Hugh, there was just laughter all the time.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41And, erm, I don't know what to say.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43I'm just heartbroken, I'm upset, but I'll remember
0:24:43 > 0:24:50all the good things that he did.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53Whether you were younger, you are a diplomat, a King, a leader or a
0:24:53 > 0:24:59street person, you all equal in his face and he would greet everybody
0:24:59 > 0:25:06and talk to everybody.I lived in Liberia, in Senegal.At the height
0:25:06 > 0:25:12of white oppression in South Africa, for many black musicians, jazz
0:25:12 > 0:25:14became the soundtrack of the resistance. Masekela was forced into
0:25:14 > 0:25:19exile as political and racial tensions increased, but once he
0:25:19 > 0:25:26returned, he was determined to make a difference.I need to pay back and
0:25:26 > 0:25:30the only way to pay back, I think, is by making the people see how
0:25:30 > 0:25:36wonderful they are and how excellent they are.He described himself as a
0:25:36 > 0:25:41troublesome child and spoke openly about the many times music saved his
0:25:41 > 0:25:45life, even later at the height of a drug addiction. This picture marked
0:25:45 > 0:25:50one of the moment it began when a missionary Father Trevor Huddleston
0:25:50 > 0:25:55gave him his first trumpet and with that, the music legend was born. He
0:25:55 > 0:25:59was an unlikely ally at the height of racial oppression here in South
0:25:59 > 0:26:03Africa. Masekela continued to use as voice over the years to speak truth
0:26:03 > 0:26:08to power.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10The musician and campaigner Hugh Masekela, who's
0:26:10 > 0:26:15died at the age of 78.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Tennis, and Britain's Kyle Edmund has made spectacular progress
0:26:18 > 0:26:20at the Australian Open, to reach his first
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Grand Slam semi-final.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25The World Number 49 beat the third seed, Grigor Dimitrov,
0:26:25 > 0:26:28making him only the sixth British man to reach the last four
0:26:28 > 0:26:36at a Grand Slam for half a century, as Joe Wilson reports.
0:26:36 > 0:26:37This is potential realised.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39This is hope made reality.
0:26:39 > 0:26:40This is Kyle Edmund, in Melbourne.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43A big first serve delivers!
0:26:43 > 0:26:45His opponent in the quarterfinal, Grigor Dimitrov, has been the next
0:26:45 > 0:26:48big thing in men's tennis for years and he fought back
0:26:48 > 0:26:49to win the second set.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Closes it out at the first time of asking.
0:26:52 > 0:26:57But Edmund won the third and found himself on the brink.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Edmund's always had power, but now he has the composure to see
0:27:01 > 0:27:03things through when it gets close - and this was pretty close.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05He's done it!
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Hang on, wait and see!
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Match point decided by a Hawk-Eye replay.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13As Andy Murray described it on Twitter, "Wow!".
0:27:13 > 0:27:16I know what it feels like to be Andy Murray
0:27:16 > 0:27:18for the last eight years, or however long!
0:27:18 > 0:27:19LAUGHTER.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23When you're on these type of stages, you know, you're reaching the last
0:27:23 > 0:27:25stages of the best tournament in the world, it's obviously very
0:27:25 > 0:27:28pleasing but, of course, I want to keep going.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Kyle Edmund may have peaked on the other side of the world,
0:27:30 > 0:27:36but he was made right here in Yorkshire.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38As an eight year old, you may just have spotted him
0:27:38 > 0:27:41on one of these courts.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43And it's here in Beverley where you'll find a man
0:27:43 > 0:27:45who was hitting against Kyle Edmund as a boy.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48He's always had the ability.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52I mean, last year, he always seemed to come off second-best really
0:27:52 > 0:28:00in tight matches.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Possibly down to the mental side, which is, the biggest thing I've
0:28:02 > 0:28:05been impressed with him, his mental side of it and how he's
0:28:05 > 0:28:06applied himself on court.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Is this success going to change him?
0:28:08 > 0:28:09Er, no, absolutely not.
0:28:09 > 0:28:10He's very grounded, very level-headed.
0:28:10 > 0:28:11He's quite a shy character.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14As a Junior, Kyle Edmund came through the British system.
0:28:14 > 0:28:15He's worked hard on his physique recently.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18Edmund lifted the Davis Cup in 2015, although the Murray brothers won
0:28:18 > 0:28:19Britain's matches in the final.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Between tournaments, you may find Kyle Edmund
0:28:21 > 0:28:24in the Bahamas these days, but the new star is
0:28:24 > 0:28:25from Beverley's hills.
0:28:25 > 0:28:30Joe Wilson, BBC News, in Yorkshire.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32In Los Angeles, the Oscar nominations have been announced,
0:28:32 > 0:28:37and leading the field - with 13 nominations -
0:28:37 > 0:28:39is the fantasy romance The Shape of Water,
0:28:39 > 0:28:40starring the British actress Sally Hawkins.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43The Best Actor category is dominated by British performers -
0:28:43 > 0:28:48with Gary Oldman, Daniel Day-Lewis and Daniel Kaluuya all nominated.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51And Meryl Streep, who already has three Oscars to her name,
0:28:51 > 0:28:54has been nominated for the 21st time in her career - as our arts editor,
0:28:54 > 0:29:02Will Gompertz, tells us.
0:29:04 > 0:29:05Guillermo del Toro's amphibian fantasy love story The Shape
0:29:05 > 0:29:08of Water leads the way, with 13 Oscar nominations,
0:29:08 > 0:29:09including Best Picture.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12This is the most sensitive asset ever to be housed in this facility.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14So, Mildred Hayes, why did you put up these billboards?
0:29:14 > 0:29:16A category which also sees the critically acclaimed
0:29:16 > 0:29:18dark comedy thriller Three Billboards Outside Ebbing,
0:29:18 > 0:29:19Missouri nominated.
0:29:19 > 0:29:20..Saw an actual crime.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22I want to go where culture is...
0:29:22 > 0:29:27As well as the coming-of-age drama Lady Bird.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29Well, writers live in the woods...
0:29:29 > 0:29:31Good to see an old brother around here.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33Also short-listed is the horror mystery Get Out.
0:29:33 > 0:29:34Ah, yes.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36And a couple of British World War II films.
0:29:36 > 0:29:40Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk.
0:29:40 > 0:29:42When will the lesson be learned?!
0:29:42 > 0:29:44And Joe Wright's the Darkest Hour, which sees Winston Churchill
0:29:44 > 0:29:49struggling in his early days as Britain's wartime Prime Minister.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51When your head is in its mouth!
0:29:51 > 0:29:54Several of the scenes in the Darkest Hour were shot
0:29:54 > 0:29:57in a replica of this place, the Churchill War Rooms
0:29:57 > 0:30:00in Westminster, where I am joined by Terri White,
0:30:00 > 0:30:01Editor-in-Chief of the film magazine Empire.
0:30:01 > 0:30:02Terri, welcome.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04Thank you.
0:30:04 > 0:30:07We're going to go through the runners and riders,
0:30:07 > 0:30:10starting with Best Film.
0:30:10 > 0:30:11Will Darkest Hour win?
0:30:11 > 0:30:13I actually don't think it will.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15I think we're looking at a win for Shape of Water,
0:30:15 > 0:30:17the Guillermo del Toro fantasy film.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19But actually, the film I think should win is Get Out.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22Which has a British rising star, Daniel Kaluuya, in the lead role.
0:30:22 > 0:30:23He gets a Best Actor nomination.
