:00:13. > :00:18.Thousands of prison officers will get a big pay rise, but will it be

:00:19. > :00:23.enough to keep staffing problem jails? There are some benefits. We

:00:24. > :00:27.will welcome additional money for our members, of course, but we don't

:00:28. > :00:29.think this goes far enough to solving the present crisis. Also on

:00:30. > :00:30.the programme this evening: The Battle for Mosul -

:00:31. > :00:46.a new assault on the last stronghold We are now above the village, which

:00:47. > :00:47.is their main target. There were about to call in some artillery

:00:48. > :00:50.strikes. President Trump makes a strong

:00:51. > :00:52.defence of his first 4 weeks in office -

:00:53. > :00:54.saying a spirit of optimism And it's a hat-trick from Harry Kane

:00:55. > :01:31.for Spurs in their FA Thousands of prison officers at

:01:32. > :01:32.jails and the south-east are to get a pay increase between three and

:01:33. > :01:35.?5,000. Ministers want to try to boost

:01:36. > :01:38.recruitment and retain existing staff at prisons under pressure

:01:39. > :01:40.from shortages and violence. But the Prison Officers Association

:01:41. > :01:42.dismissed the pay rise, saying it won't help

:01:43. > :01:44.a system in meltdown. Here's our Home Affairs

:01:45. > :01:51.Correspondent, June Kelly. This is how many officers it takes

:01:52. > :01:54.to contain one violent prisoner. Every working day, staff

:01:55. > :01:59.are fighting simply to keep control. The ?12 million in extra pay

:02:00. > :02:02.announced today is aimed at bringing in new recruits and paying some

:02:03. > :02:05.existing staff more. Here in Wandsworth

:02:06. > :02:07.jail in South London, The offer is limited to prisons

:02:08. > :02:15.in the capital and the south-east. A divisive move, according

:02:16. > :02:18.to the prison officers Association, who compare it to trying to put

:02:19. > :02:22.a plaster over a gaping wound. We're going to welcome

:02:23. > :02:24.additional money for our But we don't think this goes

:02:25. > :02:27.far enough to solving We believe it needs

:02:28. > :02:36.to be a national issue. The offer is for standard grade

:02:37. > :02:40.three prison officers. Not for more senior

:02:41. > :02:42.supervisors or specialists. Each will receive a pay

:02:43. > :02:45.hike of at least ?3000. For new recruits, their pay package

:02:46. > :02:47.will be increased by ?5,000. The Panorama programme recently went

:02:48. > :02:56.undercover at Northumberland jail, And on the floor, a prison officer

:02:57. > :03:00.suffering a seizure after accidentally inhaling

:03:01. > :03:05.the synthetic drug, spice. There is no more money in today's

:03:06. > :03:08.announcement for him or The Justice Secretary, Liz Truss,

:03:09. > :03:19.has already announced plans It is not something you can sort

:03:20. > :03:27.out in weeks or months, it takes time to recruit people,

:03:28. > :03:30.it takes time to bring But I am absolutely

:03:31. > :03:33.determined to deal with that. But prison reform campaigners,

:03:34. > :03:35.including those who have been inside, so there has to be more

:03:36. > :03:38.focus on holding onto There is a peculiar,

:03:39. > :03:42.invisible chemistry of wary mutual respect between experienced prison

:03:43. > :03:45.officers who know how to keep difficult prisoners under control

:03:46. > :03:47.from inexperienced prison officers, who don't quite understand that

:03:48. > :03:49.you don't need to take out your truncheon to sort out

:03:50. > :03:57.a fight between two prisoners. Eventually, the plan is for 2500

:03:58. > :04:02.extra officers in England and Wales. But they won't all be

:04:03. > :04:16.in place until 2018. A major new offensive is underway in

:04:17. > :04:19.Iraq against the so-called Islamic State group with security forces

:04:20. > :04:26.trying to regain full control of Mosul.

:04:27. > :04:29.The city was seized more than two years ago -

:04:30. > :04:31.as I-S took control of northern and western Iraq.

:04:32. > :04:33.Iraqi Forces launched their main offensive in October.

:04:34. > :04:35.And last month they recaptured the eastern part of Mosul.

:04:36. > :04:37.But around three quarters of a million civilians remain

:04:38. > :04:39.in the western half - where there'll be stiff

:04:40. > :04:42.Our Middle East Correspondent Quentin Sommerville and cameraman

:04:43. > :04:45.Nik Millard are the only television journalists on the frontline

:04:46. > :05:02.Just after sunrise, Iraq began what it hopes is its last major battle

:05:03. > :05:08.against the so-called Islamic State. Thousands of men and hundreds of

:05:09. > :05:15.armoured vehicles in a line of attack that is spread for miles. The

:05:16. > :05:20.Iraqi army are starting their assault on Western Mosul. They have

:05:21. > :05:25.reached their own defences. Armoured vehicles are lining up, getting

:05:26. > :05:28.ready for Islamic State. They are only a couple of kilometres over

:05:29. > :05:35.that way and they know these men are coming. They have dug in on their

:05:36. > :05:39.assault in Western Mosul. Leading the attack, Iraq's emergency

:05:40. > :05:44.response division, police special forces. Some of these men were

:05:45. > :05:47.surrounded by IS two years ago. They just escaped with their lives. Today

:05:48. > :06:00.they threw everything they had at IS.

:06:01. > :06:09.GUNFIRE. We are now above the village which is their main target.

:06:10. > :06:11.They were laying down fire. There were about to call in some artillery

:06:12. > :06:24.strikes. -- they are about. The captain tells me there are three

:06:25. > :06:33.IS fighters in a yellow building down More and car bombs. He says

:06:34. > :06:37.they are targeting them now. Soon government forces were inside. They

:06:38. > :06:45.killed 13 IS fighters without taking any casualties. -- down there. Here

:06:46. > :06:49.they discovered IS weapons. This village is small but it's important,

:06:50. > :06:56.it's the gateway to Mosul proper and the city's airport. Hidden inside

:06:57. > :07:00.another house, away from surveillance aircraft, another car

:07:01. > :07:08.bomb disguised as an ambulance. The bomb inside was still live. In these

:07:09. > :07:17.streets, though, a critical advantage, no civilians. And in

:07:18. > :07:20.western Mosul there are three quarters of a million people at IS

:07:21. > :07:26.fighters. They took their target. They made progress but with

:07:27. > :07:32.overwhelming force. The next town over overlooks the City Airport and

:07:33. > :07:39.the city itself. From here, the going will not be quite so fast.

:07:40. > :07:42.The body of a missing two year-old boy has been found

:07:43. > :07:46.He was reported missing from a property near the Bridge of Cally

:07:47. > :07:50.An air and ground search was launched and the child was found

:07:51. > :07:53.close to the property, in the River Ericht, an hour later.

:07:54. > :07:59.President Trump has made a strong defence of his first

:08:00. > :08:01.four weeks in office - saying a new spirit of optimism

:08:02. > :08:05.Addressing thousands of supporters in Florida,

:08:06. > :08:10.he repeated pledges to create jobs and improve the nation's security.

:08:11. > :08:12.But his attacks on the media have attracted criticism

:08:13. > :08:15.from a senior Republican, as our our Washington Correspondent,

:08:16. > :08:22.After a rough first month, President Trump stepped

:08:23. > :08:23.into the sunshine state, back on firmer, more

:08:24. > :08:31.The president of the United States...

:08:32. > :08:34.He defended his first four weeks in office and promised

:08:35. > :08:37.to get more work done, including a new immigration order.

:08:38. > :08:39.This will replace his controversial travel ban.

:08:40. > :08:43.But his reasoning got a little muddled.

:08:44. > :08:45.You look at what's happening last night in Sweden.

:08:46. > :08:55.They took in large numbers, they are having problems

:08:56. > :08:59.The Swedes are slightly baffled, there have been no terror

:09:00. > :09:05.Prompting the Swedish Prime Minister to ask, what had he been smoking?

:09:06. > :09:08.It's this kind of distraction from his message that he

:09:09. > :09:14.I also want to speak to you without the filter of the fake news.

:09:15. > :09:24.They've become a big part of the problem.

:09:25. > :09:30.But his secretary of defence disagrees.

:09:31. > :09:39.I've had some rather contentious times with the press, but, no,

:09:40. > :09:41.the press, as far as I am concerned, are a constituency

:09:42. > :09:49.And I don't have any issues with the press myself.

:09:50. > :09:52.Donald Trump may be revved up by this rally,

:09:53. > :09:55.but reiterating his campaign promises is also a reminder

:09:56. > :10:01.President Trump seems far more comfortable at the campaign podium

:10:02. > :10:05.than he does in the oval office right now.

:10:06. > :10:08.He seems to feed from the energy of this crowd.

:10:09. > :10:11.But he doesn't need to win friends here in Florida,

:10:12. > :10:14.he needs some on Capitol Hill, if he is to get his

:10:15. > :10:20.He also needs to find a new national security adviser after his first

:10:21. > :10:24.pick resigned and his second turned down the job.

:10:25. > :10:27.This rally was hugely popular with his voting base,

:10:28. > :10:37.Up to 480 police investigations could be reviewed after a criminal

:10:38. > :10:40.probe was launched into the actions of two people at a

:10:41. > :10:44.Randox Testing Services, based in Manchester,

:10:45. > :10:48.Two men who worked at the laboratory have been arrested.

:10:49. > :10:53.Our correspondent Phillip Norton is in Manchester.

:10:54. > :11:03.What more can you tell us? Randox testing services analyse

:11:04. > :11:07.samples of hair, blood and saliva for traces of blood alcohol for

:11:08. > :11:13.police forces across England and Wales. Those results are then used

:11:14. > :11:18.in court proceedings. Up to 500 tests carried out here since

:11:19. > :11:21.November 2015 may have been compromised by what the laboratory

:11:22. > :11:25.described as manipulation of data which supports test results. An

:11:26. > :11:29.internal enquiry led to a police investigation being launched by

:11:30. > :11:33.Greater Manchester Police. And a list of cases that may be affected

:11:34. > :11:38.has now been sent to police forces across the country. Randox Testing

:11:39. > :11:42.Services says there is no evidence the samples themselves may have been

:11:43. > :11:46.tampered with but said it might be possible. They said they would

:11:47. > :11:50.reanalyse them to provide robust results. Two men have been arrested

:11:51. > :11:53.on suspicion of perverting the course of justice and have been

:11:54. > :11:55.released on police bail. Thanks very much.

:11:56. > :11:57.The supermarket chain Morrisons has recalled a meat product

:11:58. > :12:00.after it was found to contain traces of listeria.

:12:01. > :12:02.It's removed from sale its Ready to Eat Peppered Beef Slices

:12:03. > :12:04.in a 150-gram packet, which may cause flu-like symptoms

:12:05. > :12:13.The affected product has a use-by date of this Tuesday.

:12:31. > :12:42.On a weekend win the FA Cup showed the underdog always has a chance,

:12:43. > :12:48.now Fulham had their eyes on another surprise. This was their big day but

:12:49. > :12:53.Tottenham's big chance. Perhaps the most realistic prospect of a trophy,

:12:54. > :13:00.Spurs were on song from the start. Already denied a goal, Christian

:13:01. > :13:05.Eriksen then provided one. Harry Kane! He stretches the score.

:13:06. > :13:09.Leading from the front, Harry Kane, the captain, tapped into that his

:13:10. > :13:14.side in control before the break. Fulham has been warned but fail to

:13:15. > :13:18.learn. The same combination, Christian Eriksen to Harry Kane, the

:13:19. > :13:22.same outcome. It hopes of an upset had faded they were soon gone. When

:13:23. > :13:31.Harry Kane is on form there are few can stop him. -- who can stop him.

:13:32. > :13:39.Job well done. Winning gives you confidence. We had to make sure we

:13:40. > :13:43.came here, did our job, and we did that. Leaving with the match ball

:13:44. > :13:49.today, Harry Kane will be hoping to get his hands on the trophy in May.
