0:00:06 > 0:00:08Tonight at 10pm -
0:00:08 > 0:00:09The former football coach Barry Bennell,
0:00:09 > 0:00:14is convicted of more than 30 counts of child abuse.
0:00:14 > 0:00:18Bennell had denied dozens of offences involving 11 boys,
0:00:18 > 0:00:21one of whom claimed to have been abused on more than ten
0:00:21 > 0:00:22separate occasions.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25During the trial, witnesses described how Bennell had exercised
0:00:25 > 0:00:28a power hold over them, as ambitious young players.
0:00:28 > 0:00:32The jury asked for more time to consider seven others counts,
0:00:32 > 0:00:34we'll have the latest from Liverpool Crown Court.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Also tonight -
0:00:36 > 0:00:40Jacob Zuma is formally told by his own party, to stand down,
0:00:40 > 0:00:43as president of South Africa, following allegations of corruption.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Lung cancer patients, including many who have never smoked,
0:00:45 > 0:00:50say it's time to devote far more resources to research.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54It felt like I was being punished for a crime I hadn't committed.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57I've never smoked.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00In fact, I used to be the butt of jokes at school
0:01:00 > 0:01:06because I wouldn't.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Sky and BT Sport pay over £4.5 billion for football
0:01:09 > 0:01:11rights, but is it as much as the Premier League
0:01:11 > 0:01:15had been expecting?
0:01:15 > 0:01:19COMMENTATOR:Christie is out of it again!
0:01:19 > 0:01:21And, at the Winter Olympics, the moment when Britain's
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Elise Christie crashed, on the last lap, of the women's
0:01:23 > 0:01:24speed skating final.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26And coming up on Sportsday on BBC News:
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Could Spurs recover from a terrible start in the Champions League
0:01:29 > 0:01:36knockout stages against Italian giants Juventus in Turin?
0:01:50 > 0:01:55Good evening.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58The former football coach, Barry Bennell, has been found
0:01:58 > 0:02:03guilty of multiple sex offences against young boys in the 1980s.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Bennell had denied 48 charges, including indecent assault
0:02:05 > 0:02:08and serious sexual assaults, but the jury convicted him
0:02:08 > 0:02:10on dozens of counts, and asked for more time
0:02:10 > 0:02:14to consider seven others.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16During the trial, prosecutors described him as a predatory
0:02:16 > 0:02:19paedophile who molested young boys on an 'industrial scale'.
0:02:19 > 0:02:27Our correspondent Danny Savage is at Liverpool Crown Court tonight.
0:02:27 > 0:02:32The jury in this case listened to evidence for five weeks in total.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35They went out to consider their verdicts last Thursday and came back
0:02:35 > 0:02:41this afternoon with the majority of their verdicts. Barry Bennell, the
0:02:41 > 0:02:44football coach who abused his position to molesting young boys,
0:02:44 > 0:02:48listened on via a video link and shook his head and muttered as those
0:02:48 > 0:02:52guilty verdicts were returned with some of his victims in court
0:02:52 > 0:02:54watching on.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57He was the charismatic coach who convinced the parents
0:02:57 > 0:03:00of promising young footballers that staying at his house
0:03:00 > 0:03:01was all part of the game.
0:03:01 > 0:03:06We really work the kids, they're learning all the time,
0:03:06 > 0:03:10and we do a lot of talking to them as well...
0:03:10 > 0:03:13But in the words of the prosecution, Barry Bennell was a child molester
0:03:13 > 0:03:14on an industrial scale.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Now a shadow of his former self, the 64-year-old was today convicted
0:03:18 > 0:03:23of sexually assaulting boys aged between eight and 15.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26He was found guilty of assaulting ten of the 11 boys
0:03:26 > 0:03:30this trial centred on.
0:03:30 > 0:03:36He was the gatekeeper to a dream in football,
0:03:36 > 0:03:39He was the gatekeeper to a dream world in football,
0:03:39 > 0:03:41but his victims had to silently suffer horrific abuse.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43He assaulted some of the boys at his homes,
0:03:43 > 0:03:45one of which was in this Derbyshire village.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48He had arcade games and exotic pets, and always had a reason
0:03:48 > 0:03:49for the youngsters to stay over.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52His victims were associated with Crewe and Manchester City,
0:03:52 > 0:03:56where he was involved in the junior setups.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59He was said to have been treated like God at Manchester
0:03:59 > 0:04:02City's Maine Road ground.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05In court, it was said Bennell had groomed the parents
0:04:05 > 0:04:09of the complainants so he could carry on the abuse.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12He offered no evidence in his defence, and his barrister
0:04:12 > 0:04:15accused some of the men, who were boys at the time,
0:04:15 > 0:04:17of inventing stories about him and jumping on the bandwagon.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Bennell has previously received jail sentences
0:04:19 > 0:04:21in the United States, and here in the UK,
0:04:21 > 0:04:28after being convicted of similar offences.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31This afternoon, as throughout his trial, this serial child molester
0:04:31 > 0:04:32appeared via video link.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34He shook his head as the guilty verdicts were returned.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Some of his victims had come to watch.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Hearing finally that the man who abused them when they were
0:04:40 > 0:04:45little boys has been convicted.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48So, what happened today is that he was found guilty of 36 of the
0:04:48 > 0:04:52charges and the jury is still considering seven others. So the
0:04:52 > 0:04:56judge has told them to go away and continue their deliberations
0:04:56 > 0:05:01tomorrow, although he will accept a majority verdict on those seven
0:05:01 > 0:05:04outstanding cases. This trial is not finished yet, the jury must still go
0:05:04 > 0:05:06through some deliberations on those of the charges and that will be
0:05:06 > 0:05:11starting from tomorrow morning. Danny Savage, many thanks, our
0:05:11 > 0:05:15correspondent at Liverpool Crown Court.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17In South Africa, the ruling African National Congress has asked
0:05:17 > 0:05:18President Jacob Zuma to resign.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21The ANC says he's agreed to stand down, but only after a transition
0:05:21 > 0:05:24period of three to six months, which the party says
0:05:24 > 0:05:25is unacceptable.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Mr Zuma has come under increasing pressure to resign,
0:05:27 > 0:05:35following a series of corruption scandals.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Our Africa editor Fergal Keane sent this report from Johannesburg.
0:05:37 > 0:05:43Not quite the Night of The Long Knives but still the party moving
0:05:43 > 0:05:45definitively to be rid of a defiant President.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50Late last night the convoy of the ANC leader Cyril
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Ramaphosa coming to tell his executive that after
0:05:54 > 0:05:56a short meeting Jacob Zuma was refusing to
0:05:56 > 0:05:57resign voluntarily.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00With the media kept at bay the party debated what to do next.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02It's half-past midnight and they're still talking in there.
0:06:02 > 0:06:08More than ten hours after they started.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Now, there's a sense that the whole future of the ANC,
0:06:11 > 0:06:16and indeed of this country, hinges on what happens now.
0:06:16 > 0:06:23This afternoon in Johannesburg after a meeting that eventually ran
0:06:23 > 0:06:25for 13 hours, the ANC revealed that its
0:06:25 > 0:06:26patience was exhausted.
0:06:26 > 0:06:32In its wisdom the NEC decided as follows -
0:06:32 > 0:06:37One, to recall Jacob Zuma.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Recalled, in other words they were calling on
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Jacob Zuma to resign.
0:06:41 > 0:06:47And if he doesn't it's likely they'll force
0:06:47 > 0:06:49him out through a motion of no confidence in parliament.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50But it's potentially risky.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53The President still has many supporters in the party.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Do you worry that this is going to split the ANC,
0:06:55 > 0:06:56divide the movement irreparably?
0:06:56 > 0:06:58I don't know whether the ANC will split.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01But we are leaders, we belong to branches and
0:07:01 > 0:07:05we are appealing to our structures to understand that the National
0:07:05 > 0:07:09Executive Committee has taken decisions.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12So, as the ANC officials believe they have now thrown down a
0:07:12 > 0:07:14gauntlet to President Jacob Zuma.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16They've given him time, lots of time, they say,
0:07:16 > 0:07:18to respond to their demand that he step down.
0:07:18 > 0:07:26It's now up to him.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Nobody could accuse the ANC of rushing to
0:07:28 > 0:07:30remove Jacob Zuma.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32The leadership did nothing while corruption
0:07:32 > 0:07:35scandals multiplied during nine years of his rule.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37An Indian immigrant family, the Guptas, was
0:07:37 > 0:07:40allowed to purchase vital national enterprises, employing the
0:07:40 > 0:07:44President's son in what became known as state capture.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Now the opposition believes President Zuma no longer
0:07:46 > 0:07:48cares about dividing his party or country.
0:07:48 > 0:07:49Now he's just defiant.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51You know, these are the last kicks of a
0:07:51 > 0:07:52dying horse.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54But it becomes dangerous.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56He doesn't care.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58He's not even scared of impeachment.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02So, he is prepared to lose everything.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06Jacob Zuma has lived and ruled in the shadow of greatness.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08However it comes about, he will leave office a
0:08:08 > 0:08:16humiliated figure.
0:08:16 > 0:08:21Well, tonight the finance minister, a man who was formerly a close ally
0:08:21 > 0:08:26of Jacob Zuma has come out and said he expects the President to do the
0:08:26 > 0:08:30right thing and step down and it's significant that in the last 24
0:08:30 > 0:08:33hours no cabinet ministers have come out in support of Jacob Zuma. It
0:08:33 > 0:08:36matters greatly that the ANC doesn't descend into factional fighting over
0:08:36 > 0:08:41this because that would leave the new President, Cyril Ramaphosa, the
0:08:41 > 0:08:43new leader of the organisation, trying to rescue this country's
0:08:43 > 0:08:48shattered economy and root out the deep corruption, while at the same
0:08:48 > 0:08:53time trying to contain struggles in his own ranks.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58Fergal, thank you once again, Africa editor Fergal Keane with the latest
0:08:58 > 0:09:00on the presidential story in South Africa.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Boris Johnson, in a major speech tomorrow, is expected to reach out
0:09:03 > 0:09:06to those who still have deep misgivings about Brexit,
0:09:06 > 0:09:08and to underline what he says are the potential benefits
0:09:08 > 0:09:09of leaving the European Union.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12The Foreign Secretary will say that he's detected a deepening
0:09:12 > 0:09:17of the anger in relation to Brexit.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Our political correspondent Ben Wright is at Westminster.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Is this some kind of admission that the Government still has a lot of
0:09:24 > 0:09:30work to do to unite people?Yes, it's a call for national unity a
0:09:30 > 0:09:33long time after the referendum in a very conciliatory tone of the sort I
0:09:33 > 0:09:39don't think we have heard very much from Cabinet ministers. Boris
0:09:39 > 0:09:42Johnson will use his Valentine's Day speech to try and woo despairing
0:09:42 > 0:09:51Remain voters who feel Brexit is a disaster and he's written a piece in
0:09:51 > 0:09:54tomorrow's Sun along those lines. He's one of the leading figures of
0:09:54 > 0:09:57Bo-lieve campaign, or he was, and he says he understands the grief and
0:09:57 > 0:10:00alienation of our Brexit many people feel and he detects a hardening of
0:10:00 > 0:10:06the anger. He says it's not good enough to say to the 48% who voted
0:10:06 > 0:10:11Remain get over it for survey says concerns and excite is need to be
0:10:11 > 0:10:14listened to. He says it would be a disastrous mistake to try and stop
0:10:14 > 0:10:21Brexit and cause Britain's departure from the EU the great project of
0:10:21 > 0:10:24age. The tone of this is really interesting. I think for people who
0:10:24 > 0:10:28are sceptical about Brexit, maybe people watching on from the EU, it's
0:10:28 > 0:10:33not the tone, it's the conduct of Mr Johnson's speech and other
0:10:33 > 0:10:37ministers' speeches in the next few weeks that they will judge this
0:10:37 > 0:10:40speech by, what would would have us about how divided Cabinet plans to
0:10:40 > 0:10:45get the Brexit deal that No 10 wants.Ben Wright, thank you, the
0:10:45 > 0:10:47latest from Westminster.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50The Government has unveiled an online tool, powered
0:10:50 > 0:10:52by artificial intelligence, that it says can accurately detect
0:10:52 > 0:10:54jihadist content and stop it from being viewed.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57The Home Secretary, Amber Rudd, says she wouldn't rule out bringing
0:10:57 > 0:11:05in a law that would force technology companies to use it.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07But with extremist propaganda from so-called Islamic State
0:11:07 > 0:11:10appearing on more than 400 platforms last year, there are concerns that
0:11:10 > 0:11:11such groups will simply adapt their methods
0:11:11 > 0:11:12to reach new audiences.
0:11:12 > 0:11:18Our media editor, Amol Rajan, has the story.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Militaristic, cinematic and often shot with high-level production
0:11:20 > 0:11:22values, these propaganda videos for the so-called Islamic State
0:11:22 > 0:11:29espouse terror and hatred.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32They're also easy to find on the internet right now.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35So what we have here are two videos, one of which is extremist content,
0:11:35 > 0:11:38the other which is perfectly legitimate news coverage.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Now an artificial intelligence firm in London has used Home Office money
0:11:41 > 0:11:45to target such extremist content.
0:11:45 > 0:11:49The creators claim the technology, which is obviously secret,
0:11:49 > 0:11:53can spot 94% of IS content online with an accuracy of 99.995%.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55The technology distinguishes between news and extremism
0:11:55 > 0:11:59and flags up examples, such as the one on the right,
0:11:59 > 0:12:01with a high probability of being extremist content,
0:12:01 > 0:12:05to be vetted by a human.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08What we are looking to do is to try and remove this content
0:12:08 > 0:12:09from the public web.
0:12:09 > 0:12:15If it requires somebody to have ten passwords and an incredibly
0:12:15 > 0:12:17complicated Tor browser before they can get access to content,
0:12:17 > 0:12:20we see that as a win.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23It means that it can't just be shared between friends on, like,
0:12:23 > 0:12:24their mobile phones.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26While attention is focused on big firms like Twitter,
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Google and Facebook, crucially, this technology
0:12:29 > 0:12:32will benefit smaller platforms, who will have free use of it.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Islamic State supporters used over 400 unique platforms last year,
0:12:35 > 0:12:39145 of them for the first time.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43Like other forms of modern media, terrorist propaganda
0:12:43 > 0:12:46has now shifted online.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50What's so striking about this new tool is both that it's funded
0:12:50 > 0:12:52by government rather than technology firms, and that it's powered
0:12:52 > 0:12:54by artificial intelligence.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56In other words, it's an admission that machines rather than manpower
0:12:56 > 0:12:59will be most effective at finding and removing extremist
0:12:59 > 0:13:03material online.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06One former jihadist, who now works in counter-radicalisation,
0:13:06 > 0:13:08argues that terrorists will always adapt their methods to find
0:13:08 > 0:13:12new audiences and the platforms need to be willing to take action.
0:13:12 > 0:13:18The big players in this area are taking a lot of action,
0:13:18 > 0:13:21but what we've found is that it's the smaller companies who aren't
0:13:21 > 0:13:23necessarily prepared to play ball with government,
0:13:23 > 0:13:24sometimes because they're suspicious of government,
0:13:24 > 0:13:27sometimes because they simply don't regard it as being part
0:13:27 > 0:13:28of their business model.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30It's not yet clear how widely the technology will be taken up,
0:13:30 > 0:13:33but the Government says its instinct is to collaborate with industry.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37We're not going to rule out taking legislative action
0:13:37 > 0:13:40if we need to do it, but I remain convinced that the best
0:13:40 > 0:13:43way to take real action, to have the best outcomes,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46is to have an industry-led form, like the one we've got.
0:13:46 > 0:13:50Your algorithms are doing that grooming and that radicalisation.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53It's a war of attrition, but the chair of the Home Affairs
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Select Committee says the onus is still on the biggest
0:13:55 > 0:13:57digital companies.
0:13:57 > 0:14:02I think it's imperative on the tech giants, on all of these companies,
0:14:02 > 0:14:06to do more to operate swiftly to remove illegal material.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09If they don't, there has to be some form of penalty on them
0:14:09 > 0:14:11for not doing this because, in the end, this is
0:14:11 > 0:14:12about illegal material.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14It's important to be realistic about the costs
0:14:14 > 0:14:18and consequences of the open web.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20While technology and government pressure can reduce harm,
0:14:20 > 0:14:23the fight against digital extremism is a war without end.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Amol Rajan, BBC News.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Lung cancer claims more lives in the UK than any other form
0:14:30 > 0:14:34of cancer, and its victims include many who have never smoked.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38Despite the fact that it's the UK's biggest cancer killer,
0:14:38 > 0:14:41it still receives relatively little research funding.
0:14:41 > 0:14:48Around 35,000 people die from lung cancer
0:14:48 > 0:14:50in the UK every year, and around 44,000 new
0:14:50 > 0:14:58cases are diagnosed.
0:15:00 > 0:15:07But just £708 is spent in the UK per person who dies from lung cancer.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10A fifth of that spent on breast cancer and a tenth of the amount
0:15:10 > 0:15:11on leukaemia research.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Our legal affairs correspondent, Clive Coleman whose sister Sarah
0:15:13 > 0:15:15recently died of lung cancer, has been finding out more
0:15:15 > 0:15:18about the non-smokers who are affected, why it attracts
0:15:18 > 0:15:19less research funding than other cancers.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21When you're first diagnosed with cancer, it's really scary
0:15:21 > 0:15:22and I was very scared.
0:15:22 > 0:15:30I was diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer in August 2015.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33This is my younger sister, Sarah, she died of lung cancer in December,
0:15:33 > 0:15:36two years after being diagnosed.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38In the months before her death, she made this film
0:15:38 > 0:15:41about her condition.
0:15:41 > 0:15:47Before she got the illness, I knew relatively little about it.
0:15:47 > 0:15:54I suppose I shared the common view that it was a smoker's disease.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57I had no idea how many healthy, non-smokers got it or that in the UK
0:15:57 > 0:15:59it kills more than breast, prostate and pancreatic
0:15:59 > 0:16:00cancer put together.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Keep into the sides, that's it.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Safely.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Like my sister, Joanne Marshall has never smoked, but has stage 4 lung
0:16:09 > 0:16:12cancer because of a non-inherited fault in her genes.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15She's being treated with targeted drug therapies.
0:16:15 > 0:16:21They provide a very effective stay of execution.
0:16:21 > 0:16:29So for me, for example, I've been on a targeted
0:16:29 > 0:16:32therapy for about a year, which meant that I could live,
0:16:32 > 0:16:33essentially, a normal life.
0:16:33 > 0:16:41I was very active, I could breathe properly.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45But they don't last forever, that's the problem, cancer tends
0:16:45 > 0:16:46to be one step ahead.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49The children help just by being here.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51I mean, they're really doing everything they can.
0:16:51 > 0:16:57My husband...
0:16:57 > 0:17:00His life has completely changed and it's not what I wanted for him.
0:17:00 > 0:17:05But, you know...
0:17:05 > 0:17:07If we get through this, we'll be so strong.
0:17:07 > 0:17:12Scientists don't know why seemingly more and more healthy non-smokers
0:17:12 > 0:17:19are getting lung cancer, but visiting Joanna and her family,
0:17:19 > 0:17:27I had learned that the disease kills 98 people each day in the UK.
0:17:30 > 0:17:3314% of those who get it have never smoked and yet,
0:17:33 > 0:17:35in terms of research funding, it receives a small fraction
0:17:35 > 0:17:38of the money spent on breast or testicular cancer or leukaemia.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40It's a massive problem because these people
0:17:40 > 0:17:43who are diagnosed with lung cancer, who've never smoked,
0:17:43 > 0:17:51are really quite angry that it's assumed that they have smoked
0:17:54 > 0:17:56and that they have self-inflicted this cancer upon them,
0:17:56 > 0:17:58when clearly they haven't.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Because of the way that the disease behaves and that these people
0:18:01 > 0:18:04are not expected to be diagnosed with cancer, they're not high risk,
0:18:04 > 0:18:06they're usually diagnosed at a later stage and therefore treatment can
0:18:06 > 0:18:08often not be curative, which is a complete
0:18:08 > 0:18:10and utter disaster for them.
0:18:10 > 0:18:16Lung cancer remains the ugly, poor relation of the cancer family,
0:18:16 > 0:18:19it doesn't discriminate between smokers and non-smokers
0:18:19 > 0:18:26and there'll be many more cases, like my sister's, before
0:18:26 > 0:18:27a long-term treatment's found.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31Clive Coleman, BBC News.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34A parliamentary committee has taken the unusual step of using its powers
0:18:34 > 0:18:36to force the financial regulator to hand over a report
0:18:36 > 0:18:40into the mistreatment of business customers by RBS.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44The Financial Conduct Authority had said it could take weeks or months
0:18:44 > 0:18:48to publish the report, which found that mistreatment
0:18:48 > 0:18:51of business customers by the RBS Global Restructuring Group,
0:18:51 > 0:18:53was widespread and systematic, as our economics correspondent,
0:18:53 > 0:19:01Andy Verity, explains.
0:19:01 > 0:19:06Glenn eggels the golf venue in 2007 RBS NatWest promised to lend the
0:19:06 > 0:19:09property developer enough money to buy two plots of land here and
0:19:09 > 0:19:15develop them into luxury homes. But then in 2008 the bank moved Derek
0:19:15 > 0:19:19into what became the RBS Global Restructuring Group, within months
0:19:19 > 0:19:23the bank broke its promise. His business was wrecked and the home he
0:19:23 > 0:19:27was lived in on this street was lost. He fought back, acting as his
0:19:27 > 0:19:31own lawyer and won in the Supreme Court, but it took well over a year
0:19:31 > 0:19:37for the bank to compensate him.It was unfair. Actions against me and
0:19:37 > 0:19:43the actions against lots of other people. That really leads me back to
0:19:43 > 0:19:47where is the accountability?In 2013 the Financial Conduct Authority
0:19:47 > 0:19:51commissioned a report which found inappropriate treatment was
0:19:51 > 0:19:55widespread and systematic. It published a summary of the findings
0:19:55 > 0:19:58but MPs have been pressing the reluctant regulator to publish it in
0:19:58 > 0:20:02full.I'm going to write to you, probably in the next couple of days,
0:20:02 > 0:20:07with a clear request to publish and a time scale within which to
0:20:07 > 0:20:10publish. Otherwise it will be the case that the Financial Conduct
0:20:10 > 0:20:14Authority finds events overtake him. A copy of the full report was
0:20:14 > 0:20:18published on the internet. What it contains are phrases that neither
0:20:18 > 0:20:24the bank nor the regulator wanted the public to see including phrases
0:20:24 > 0:20:29like, "rope, sometimes you need to let customers hang themselves."
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Another one, "GRG management was aware or should have been aware. We
0:20:32 > 0:20:37view these issues as part of an intentional or coordinated strategy.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40It was this strategy that was the underlying cause of the poor
0:20:40 > 0:20:44treatment." The businessmen who first accused the bank of
0:20:44 > 0:20:47mistreating customers say those behind the scandal aren't being held
0:20:47 > 0:20:52accountable.The whole FCA process has taken far too long. Over four
0:20:52 > 0:20:58years is ridiculous. But what's probably worse than that is the way
0:20:58 > 0:21:03they seem to have worked hand in glove with RBS and negotiated
0:21:03 > 0:21:07behind-the-scenes with RBS about what would be in the report. To the
0:21:07 > 0:21:12point where the regulators are saying, I'm not sure we want to
0:21:12 > 0:21:16publish this yet because RBS might sue us. Who is regulating who.
0:21:16 > 0:21:22Neither the bank nor the regulator will give an interview but neither
0:21:22 > 0:21:26is objecting to publication. They are being forced to hand over a
0:21:26 > 0:21:35unredacted copy by Friday. Andy Verity, BBC News.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37A brief look at some of the day's other news stories.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Israeli police say there is enough evidence to indict the Prime
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for bribery, fraud and breach
0:21:42 > 0:21:43of trust in two separate cases.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45They relate to claims he received luxury gifts in exchange
0:21:45 > 0:21:48for political favours and asked the publisher of a newspaper
0:21:48 > 0:21:50for favourable coverage in return for reigning in a rival publication.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Mr Netanyahu says the allegations are "baseless" and he intends
0:21:53 > 0:21:54to continue as leader.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Inflation remained unchanged last month at 3%.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59The cost of food and some imported materials fell,
0:21:59 > 0:22:01but prices for clothing and some leisure activities rose.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05Last week the Bank of England warned that interest rates may go up
0:22:05 > 0:22:13quicker than expected to help curb inflation.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have made their first official
0:22:15 > 0:22:16joint visit to Scotland.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19The trip began with a walkabout at Edinburgh Castle,
0:22:19 > 0:22:23where the couple had a close encounter with the mascot
0:22:23 > 0:22:26of the Royal Regiment of Scotland - a Shetland pony - before visiting
0:22:26 > 0:22:30a cafe in the city which helps the homeless.
0:22:30 > 0:22:31A judge has upheld the UK arrest warrant for the founder
0:22:31 > 0:22:34of the Wikileaks website, Julian Assange.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37It was issued when he breached bail conditions in 2012 and sought refuge
0:22:37 > 0:22:41at the Ecuadorean Embassy in London, where he's been ever since.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43He was facing sexual assault allegations in Sweden,
0:22:43 > 0:22:50which have since been dropped.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53The country of Guyana, in South America, is one
0:22:53 > 0:22:56of the smallest in the world, with a population of under 800,000,
0:22:56 > 0:22:59and yet it has the highest suicide rate among women,
0:22:59 > 0:23:01some five times higher than the UK, according
0:23:01 > 0:23:04to the World Health Oganisation.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Our reporter, Tiffany Sweeney, reports now from the capital
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Georgetown on the scale of the problem and the latest
0:23:11 > 0:23:12initiatives to tackle it.
0:23:12 > 0:23:17From the lush greenery of its countryside,
0:23:17 > 0:23:23to its vibrant capital Georgetown, it's a place of beauty and colour.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27But below the surface, there's a darker under current.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Underlying all of this is a cultural acceptance that
0:23:30 > 0:23:38suicide is part of Guyana.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42It's not just one thing that makes someone think that, you know what,
0:23:42 > 0:23:43I'm going to end my life.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46Every day my parents would have money and many of those things
0:23:46 > 0:23:49are contributed to it.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52And it was seeing her parents find it difficult to feed her family that
0:23:52 > 0:23:56led to Lisa's depression and trying to take her own life,
0:23:56 > 0:23:59at the age of 14.
0:23:59 > 0:24:05Yeah, I felt as though, you know, they were struggling a lot
0:24:05 > 0:24:09and I wanted to do more and to help them.
0:24:09 > 0:24:15I felt like if I was out of the equation, then things
0:24:15 > 0:24:20would be much better.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23Good morning. Good morning.
0:24:23 > 0:24:30But Lisa is here today because one teacher encouraged her to talk.
0:24:30 > 0:24:38She won Miss Guyana and used her platform to set up Pora,
0:24:46 > 0:24:47-- Pots, prevention of teenage suicide.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49# I would take back everything back #.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Lisa shares her story of how she became a singer
0:24:51 > 0:24:54and a model, it's her way of inspiring young people.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56After the discussion, five school children wanted to talk.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59About things that happen.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03I'm always in school.
0:25:03 > 0:25:09I never, never like to let people know my feelings, I always smile.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11They all shared similar stories, of family members dying, absent
0:25:11 > 0:25:16parents and bullying at school.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20Some were so overwhelming, it was clear they needed support.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Support that this school gives through its teachers,
0:25:23 > 0:25:25but here they're still waiting for a counsellor, something
0:25:25 > 0:25:27the government has pledged.
0:25:27 > 0:25:32If you're so young and vulnerable at that age and no-one's telling
0:25:32 > 0:25:35you that you can be something or you can make something
0:25:35 > 0:25:37of your life, I believe in you, then you feel worthless,
0:25:37 > 0:25:42and that's essentially what these kids are feeling.
0:25:42 > 0:25:48So what's the best theme?
0:25:48 > 0:25:51Mine one is, say it...
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Beverley Cyrus is the head teacher at this school,
0:25:53 > 0:25:56she believes tackling issues at home are just as important as education.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58Some of them are living, like, in different homes
0:25:58 > 0:26:02at different periods of time.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05So most of them are not in a stable home.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07So you find various behaviours are coming out because what mum
0:26:07 > 0:26:12would encourage, grandmum wouldn't.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16She, like Lisa, believes by nurturing the children to focus
0:26:16 > 0:26:19positively on the skills they do have, it will help to improve
0:26:19 > 0:26:24their mental health.
0:26:24 > 0:26:28The government is opening several specialist centres this year
0:26:28 > 0:26:31to address the fact the suicide rate among women is the highest
0:26:31 > 0:26:36in the world and for men the second highest.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39Suriname is two hours from the capital and is
0:26:39 > 0:26:42the region most affected.
0:26:42 > 0:26:47The hospital here says one of their main issues is the negative
0:26:47 > 0:26:49way in which suicide is commonly discussed.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51You hear it sitting in a car.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54It's discussed, it's laughed at.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58It's like an every day conversation.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01She called for other governmental bodies to play their part.
0:27:01 > 0:27:07As I've said, we can't stand alone, we're a house,
0:27:07 > 0:27:12so we need all the pillars to ensure our people stand.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15The authorities are trying to find a way out, but it will take
0:27:15 > 0:27:18a cultural shift to change the conversation surrounding mental
0:27:18 > 0:27:23health to one that will change the tide in a positive direction.
0:27:23 > 0:27:30Tiffany Sweeney, BBC News, Guyana.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32The English Premier League has tonight revealed how much UK
0:27:32 > 0:27:35broadcasters will pay for the right to show football over a three-year
0:27:35 > 0:27:38period, starting next year.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Our sports correspondent, Richard Conway, is here and has
0:27:40 > 0:27:43been casting an eye over what we know so far.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47Tell us about the figures. What deals have been struck?Sky are the
0:27:47 > 0:27:50big winners tonight. Theyed have secured 128 games under this new
0:27:50 > 0:27:58deal. They will pay £1.2 billion per season for those games. That will
0:27:58 > 0:28:03extend over a three year period. The company will pay 16% less per match
0:28:03 > 0:28:09though. A reduction on their current contract. BT, they have secured one
0:28:09 > 0:28:13of the seven packages available them will show 32 games across Saturday
0:28:13 > 0:28:20lunch times at a cost of £295 million per season. £9 million per
0:28:20 > 0:28:23match twochlt more packages of games remain. For bank holiday and midweek
0:28:23 > 0:28:26games. They remain to be sold am they are multiple bidders interested
0:28:26 > 0:28:32in them, we are told. There is speculation the tech giants, Netflix
0:28:32 > 0:28:37and Amazon and Facebook they could come for those packages remain we
0:28:37 > 0:28:43have to wait and see on that. In all, the BT and Sky have paid £4.5
0:28:43 > 0:28:47billion over three years. It's a huge sum, not as much as last time.
0:28:47 > 0:28:51It will mean that the clubs in the Premier League will still be able to
0:28:51 > 0:28:55fund the big transfers, big wages and the big money to agents. More to
0:28:55 > 0:28:59come from overseas deals. Fans, they will want that dialogue over fair
0:28:59 > 0:29:02ticket policies to continue. They will want to know what is happening
0:29:02 > 0:29:06with grass-roots money as well. The big money remains in English
0:29:06 > 0:29:09football, but the broadcasters appear, for now at least, to have
0:29:09 > 0:29:13reached a limit on what they are prepared to pay.Richard thank the
0:29:13 > 0:29:20again for latest on that. Richard Conway there for us.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22In the Champions League, Tottenham Hotspur made a remarkable
0:29:22 > 0:29:25comeback in Italy against Juventus after going two goals down.
0:29:25 > 0:29:26After Harry Kane scored, Christian Eriksen equalised
0:29:26 > 0:29:29from a free kick to give Spurs two away goals to take back
0:29:29 > 0:29:31to Wembley for the second leg.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34In the other tie, Manchester City cruised to a 4-0 win in Basel,
0:29:34 > 0:29:36all but securing them a place in the quarter-finals
0:29:36 > 0:29:38of the competition.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40Hopes of a first medal for Britain at the Winter Olympics,
0:29:40 > 0:29:43in South Korea, were dashed today when the speed skater,
0:29:43 > 0:29:47Elise Christie, crashed on the last lap of the Women's 500 Metres Final
0:29:47 > 0:29:51and finished last.
0:29:51 > 0:29:52Our correspondent, Andy Swiss, reports from Pyeongchang.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56Elise Christie!
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Racing for redemption, Elise Christie hoping to turn
0:29:58 > 0:30:00heartbreak into Olympic glory.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03COMMENTATOR:Away they go, the final is on.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06They get away first time.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10Four years ago in Sochi, Christie endured a personal nightmare.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Crashes, disqualifications, she nearly quit the sport.
0:30:13 > 0:30:14Surely it couldn't happen again?
0:30:14 > 0:30:17COMMENTATOR:She has work to do to get back into contention.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20But stuck in fourth place, she spied a gap, went
0:30:20 > 0:30:22for it and what followed was horribly familiar.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25COMMENTATOR:Christie tries to make it on the inside.
0:30:25 > 0:30:26She's third.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29Christie crashes out. Christie is out of it once again!
0:30:29 > 0:30:34Fontana going with Choi Min-jeong. It's a photo finish on the line!
0:30:34 > 0:30:39Once again, Christie's hopes were sent sliding into the barriers,
0:30:39 > 0:30:42it was Sochi all over again, and as Italy's Arianna Fontana
0:30:42 > 0:30:46took gold, Christie was left in utter despair.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48Well, can you believe it, another Olympics, another
0:30:48 > 0:30:51tumble for Elise Christie.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54She still has two more events to come, but her Games have
0:30:54 > 0:30:58started in disappointment.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02Replays suggested Christie's hand had been hit by a rival's
0:31:02 > 0:31:04skate and afterwards, she was inconsolable.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07As the tears flowed, she tried to make sense
0:31:07 > 0:31:08of her seemingly endless misfortune.
0:31:08 > 0:31:13I know it's short track and I know I'm supposed
0:31:13 > 0:31:17to be prepared for this, but it still hurts, you know.
0:31:17 > 0:31:22Obviously, it's still almost a week until my best distance,
0:31:22 > 0:31:28so that's the positive...
0:31:28 > 0:31:30I don't know, right now I just can't see living
