The Prime Minister is warning GPs they could face funding cuts | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
if they don't keep surgeries open for longer to meet patient demand. | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
The government says many people are going to hard-pressed accident | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
and emergency departments because they can't | :00:34. | :00:34. | |
Doctors' leaders accuse the government of failing to address | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
Our health correspondent Robert Pigott reports. | :00:40. | :00:51. | |
Hospitals have faced a winter crisis like none before. Unprecedented | :00:52. | :01:00. | |
pressure in the New Year, led almost half to declare a major alert | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
doctors warning patient safety was being compromised. Today the | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
government said GP surgeries were partly at fault, failing to provide | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
the access patients need, forcing them into accident departments | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
instead. The government wants surgeries to open from 8am until 8pm | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
and open seven days a week unless they can prove there is no demand. | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
They said they will withhold extra funding unless GPs comply. I have | :01:28. | :01:33. | |
worked as a nurse for many years in the NHS and I know every winter is | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
difficult, but this winter in particular, I have seen the highest | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
number ever attending A so we have to make best use of resources. | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
Funding is tight and if GPs will not be open when the public need them to | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
be open, the funding can be directed to other places in the NHS such as | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
A But GPs say they are being made a scapegoat for the government's | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
failure to fund the NHS sufficiently. If all practices were | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
expected to open seven days a week using five days worth of funding and | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
staffing, all that would happen is we would undermine the quality of | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
care we can provide to the vast majority of our patients and we | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
would stretch an already overstretched service more thinly. | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
Some health experts have supported claims by doctors that congestion in | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
A Department has been caused by finding beds for more seriously ill | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
patients than overflow from GP surgeries. They say medically fit | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
patients are clogging up badly needed beds because of the shortage | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
of money to care for them at home. Today, Jeremy Corbyn took the | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
opportunity to announce a new Labour proposal to ease the pressure on | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
social care. A Labour government would give social care at the | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
funding it needs and give a firm commitment to take failed private | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
care homes into public ownership to maintain the social care protection | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
that our people need. Research suggests three in ten people in A | :03:04. | :03:14. | |
would be better treated elsewhere and the government insists GPs are | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
vital to stopping them going there. It is now ready to take tough | :03:17. | :03:17. | |
measures to see that they do. Let's speak to our political | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
correspondent Chris Mason. What's your assessment then Chris, | :03:21. | :03:22. | |
about what Theresa May's I think after a howling gale of bad | :03:23. | :03:31. | |
headlines from the government over the past couple of days, Theresa May | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
wants to be seen to be taking charge and be on the side patients, the | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
underside of the woman who came up to me a couple of minutes ago with | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
her phone, counting on a stopwatch, nearly seven hours she has waited to | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
get her elderly mother checked into a bed. She was full of praise for | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
the staff saying it wasn't their fault, it was the system under too | :03:53. | :04:00. | |
much pressure. Theresa May, rather than GPs is pursuing a risky | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
strategy. We have seen that with the reaction it has provoked. But | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
arguably, politically it would have been more risky to say nothing. For | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
a long time, it has been an Achilles heel of the Conservatives and they | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
have not been trusted with the NHS. This week, this month, this winter, | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
doesn't with that. Chris, thanks very much. | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
A teenager who was stolen as a newborn from a hospital | :04:27. | :04:28. | |
in Florida 18 years ago has been found in South Carolina. | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
Kamiyah Mobley was discovered after a tip-off and DNA tests | :04:32. | :04:33. | |
The woman who raised her has been charged with kidnapping. | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
Our Washington Correspondent Laura Bicker sent this report. | :04:38. | :04:46. | |
This is Kamiyah Mobley, with a woman, who for Hall and her life she | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
believed was her mother. But the 18-year-old has discovered the | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
truth. And today that woman, Gloria Williams is behind bars. You have | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
been charged with kidnapping. Kamiyah was stolen from a hospital | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
in Florida eight hours after she was born, by someone posing as a nurse. | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
Her family pleaded for help to find her and police received thousands of | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
tip-offs. But it was only in the last year they had a breakthrough. | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
She had an inclination beginning a couple of months ago, she may have | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
been involved in this in some way. She has a lot to process and a lot | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
to think about. Kamiyah's family in Florida have never forgotten the | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
baby that was snatched from them in 1988 and they have been in touch | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
over the Internet. She sounds so intelligent and she said she will be | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
here to see us. Every day you get up, there is always hope. There was | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
always hope. For Kamiyah herself, there is shock and disbelief, as she | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
watches the woman she thought was her mother, jailed for being her | :05:55. | :05:56. | |
abductor. The US President-elect, | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
Donald Trump, has suggested he may drop sanctions imposed | :06:01. | :06:02. | |
against Russia over In an interview with | :06:03. | :06:03. | |
the Wall Street Journal, Mr Trump said he would retain | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
the sanctions "at least for a period of time" | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
but could scrap them if Russia was helpful to the US, | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
for example in fighting terrorism. The committee of MPs overseeing | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
the Brexit process has called on the government to reveal details | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
of its plans by next month. The all-party group of MPs also says | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
the government should reach a transitional agreement | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
with the EU, to give Our business correspondent | :06:29. | :06:30. | |
Joe Lynam reports. For months, Britain's largest | :06:31. | :06:39. | |
employers have been calling for clarity on what type of deal | :06:40. | :06:41. | |
will emerge post Brexit. Many want a transition arrangement | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
with the EU so they can plan Today, MPs on both sides | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
of the Brexit argument, piled more pressure on Theresa May | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
by calling for exactly that. We think any return to tariffs | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
or bureaucratic obstacles would not be in the interests of British | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
business and the committee believes transitional arrangements will be | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
needed to smooth the process as we leave the European Union, | :07:06. | :07:07. | |
particularly if there were to be any changes to the way we trade | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
or the way we sell our services. This group of MPs and business | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
want to know whether Britain wants to remain within the single market | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
and they want to give MPs And if a deal can't be reached | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
within the two-year time frame, they want a transitional phase | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
to smooth the process out One of the key sectors in all | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
of this is the City of London, which provides more than a tenth | :07:35. | :07:42. | |
of UK tax revenues. Critics say that's what | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
the government should be protecting. We should spend the two | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
years of negotiations on the financial services, | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
ensuring the city is OK. We don't need | :07:50. | :07:51. | |
a transitional arrangement. The EU's chief Brexit | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
negotiator Michel Barnier, warned there wouldn't be any special | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
deals to protect UK On Tuesday, the Prime Minister | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
gives a key speech It's far from certain though | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
that she will be able to provide the detail that many on both sides | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
are now demanding. Football and Premier League leaders | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
Chelsea play Leicester this evening, without their leading striker Diego | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
Costa. The player's been central | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
to Chelsea's success this season. But there are claims he's fallen out | :08:26. | :08:27. | |
with his manager and talk of a multi-million pound move | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
to the Chinese Super League. Here's our Sports | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
reporter Patrick Gearey. Where there is Costa, there is | :08:33. | :08:43. | |
danger. The Premier League's top scorer is a headache for defenders, | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
but now it seems also for his manager. Diego Costa will not play | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
against Leicester this evening after a dispute with the coach over his | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
fitness. Reports emerged last mike. Big-money interest in the player | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
from China. Yesterday Chelsea's manager was shy about his team | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
selection. I have, honestly I have to check a couple of situations and | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
then decide tomorrow. The pull of the East recently Lord O, now on an | :09:13. | :09:22. | |
estimated ?400,000 a week. China has been the destination of John Obi | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
Mikel and Didier Drogba, who left in 2012. Costa has been offered ?30 | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
million a year by an unnamed Chinese club, so why stay? He is at his | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
peak. The team is built around him, absolutely, totally. He is a top | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
player. If he wants to go to China and be bored for 18 hours a day, | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
good luck with that. Harry Kane offered the perfect example of a | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
striker's value in the Premier League. His hat-trick moved Spurs | :09:51. | :10:02. | |
second behind Chelsea. Costa offered his support on social media as they | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
prepare to play Leicester, but Chelsea will be worried about | :10:05. | :10:05. | |
Chinese cheque-books. There's more throughout the evening | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
