Good evening. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
Haiti's ambassador to the UK has
told the BBC he believes Oxfam did | 0:00:24 | 0:00:32 | |
try to cover up details of the use
of prostitutes by some of its aid | 0:00:32 | 0:00:36 | |
workers in the aftermath
of the 2010 earthquake. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
Oxfam's chief executive admits
they could have been more open, | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
but insisted there was no cover-up. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:42 | |
Downing Street says
the government is reviewing | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
its relationship with the charity. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:45 | |
Angus Crawford has more details. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
It was an earthquake
that devastated Haiti, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:54 | |
killing more than 200,000 people,
affecting millions more. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:59 | |
Aid agencies from around the world
stepped into the chaos. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:03 | |
Oxfam, with more than 70 years'
experience, had hundreds | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
of staff in the field. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:10 | |
But an investigation
by the Times found that in 2011, | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
four staff members were sacked
and three others resigned over | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
allegations of misconduct,
including paying local | 0:01:18 | 0:01:19 | |
women for sex. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
The NGO says it launched
an investigation and kept | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
the Charity Commission fully
informed, something | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |
the commission now disputes. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
Oxfam's leadership denies
there's been a cover-up. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:37 | |
Oxfam was actually proactive
in going to the British | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
public, the Department
for International Development, | 0:01:39 | 0:01:44 | |
and the Charity Commission,
to explain that there had been | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
serious misconduct
and we'd taken action. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:51 | |
More than £30 million of taxpayers'
money is given to Oxfam | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
by the government every year. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
Today, Downing Street called
the allegations truly | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
shocking and demanded a full
and urgent investigation. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:04 | |
Today, fresh claims,
some of the disgraced staff got jobs | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
at other aid agencies because Oxfam
failed to warn them | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
about the misconduct. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:14 | |
It is clear it's a cover-up case. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:18 | |
The fact that those folks
were allowed to leave the country | 0:02:18 | 0:02:22 | |
without any punishment,
without even informing the Haitian | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
authorities about that. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
It was a cover-up. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
Haiti wants Oxfam to hand over
all relevant documents, | 0:02:29 | 0:02:35 | |
so justice can be served there. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
The behaviour of a few has stained
the charity's past reputation | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
and now threatens its work
in the future. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:48 | |
An Israeli fighter jet has crashed
after coming under fire, | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
while attacking Iranian
forces in Syria. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
The two-man crew ejected and one
is said to be seriously injured. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
The F-16 was part of an air raid
on a drone base inside Syria, | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
after Israel claimed an Iranian
drone entered its airspace. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
The government in Damascus has
accused Israel of terrorism, | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
and has threatened to retaliate. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson
is in Bangladesh, where he's been | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
meeting Rohingya refugees,
who have escaped violence | 0:03:18 | 0:03:19 | |
in neighbouring Myanmar. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:24 | |
Nearly 700,000 people have been
forced to leave their homes, | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
after a military crackdown began
six months ago. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
Reeta Chakrabarti is travelling
with the Foreign Secretary. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:35 | |
Cries of "welcome" to a guest
from a people who have been | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
kicked out of their home. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:42 | |
We're going to try and get
you back home, guys. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
Boris Johnson came to see and hear
himself from the victims of this | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
huge man-made disaster. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:51 | |
He heard story after story
of arson, rape and murder. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:59 | |
Committed, say the Rohingya
victims, by the military | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
and Buddhist mobs in Myanmar. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:09 | |
I'm very sorry. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
What do you think of
what you've heard so far? | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
Well, it's overwhelming
and obviously these people have seen | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
some pretty horrifying things
and you're very conscious | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
when talking to them,
the young people, you don't | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
want to trigger terrible
memories for them. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
It was very clear with the case
of the guy who'd only narrowly | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
escaped and who'd almost
lost his daughter, who'd | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
been beaten, and had
to ransom his daughter back. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
He kept breaking down in tears. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
The people that Boris Johnson
is meeting here are all in limbo. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:45 | |
Bangladesh doesn't want
them here permanently | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
but they can't go back to Myanmar
without guarantees of safety. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
So what can Britain do to help? | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
It's about finding a political
solution, finding an answer | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
in Myanmar, from Burma,
creating the conditions for a safe, | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
dignified return for these people. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
That's what they want. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
They do want to go back
but they don't feel safe. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
That's the message the Foreign
Secretary is taking to Myanmar, | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
where he landed tonight. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:12 | |
He admits a safe return
for the Rohingya presently | 0:05:12 | 0:05:14 | |
looks unrealistic. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:17 | |
It's a very tough diplomatic
battle he has to fight. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:25 | |
The father of an 11-year-ld
schoolgirl who was stabbed | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
in Wolverhampton says he's "utterly
devastated" by her death. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
Jasmine Forrester's father Simeon,
said she "was a shining star | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
and a huge part of us". | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
Detectives are questioning
a 51-year-old relative | 0:05:37 | 0:05:38 | |
on suspicion of murder. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:43 | |
Jeremy Corbyn has promised to bring
a large number of privatised | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
utilities back into public control. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
The Labour leader told a conference
in London that the UK | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
should be following "a global tide
of public ownership." | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
We need to put Britain
at the forefront of the wave | 0:05:55 | 0:06:00 | |
of international change,
in favour of public, | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
democratic ownership and control
of our services and utilities. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:10 | |
From India to Canada,
across the world, people are waking | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
up to the fact that privatisation
has failed and taking back control | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
of their public services. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:20 | |
North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un has
invited the South Korean | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
president for talks
at the "earliest date possible." | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
The historic invitation was given
by Kim Jong-un's sister, | 0:06:27 | 0:06:33 | |
who's visiting the South
for the Winter Olympics. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
If talks do take place, they'd be
the first in more than a decade | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
between Korean leaders. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:39 | |
With all the action
from the Winter Olympics | 0:06:39 | 0:06:43 | |
and the rest of a busy day of sport,
let's join Lizzie Greenwood Hughes | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
at the BBC Sport Centre. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:51 | |
There is a huge mess going on at
Twickenham in | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
There is a huge mess going on at
Twickenham in the rugby for the Six | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
Nations Championship, England
against Wales, England, 12, Wales, | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
three, just before half-time. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:06 | |
Ireland thumping Italy 56-19, Jacob
Stockdale scoring two of their eight | 0:07:06 | 0:07:12 | |
tries in Dublin as Ireland topped
the table. Eight tries and the stoop | 0:07:12 | 0:07:17 | |
where the England teenager helped
the defending champions demolish | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
Wales 52-0. Scotland playing France
later. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:29 | |
They say there's no place like home
and after moving into Wembley at the | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
beginning of the season Tottenham
seemed to have the place the way | 0:07:39 | 0:07:41 | |
they like it, unbeaten at the
National Stadium since October last | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
year. Now time to invite the
neighbours around. In front of a | 0:07:44 | 0:07:51 | |
record-breaking crowd the first 45
minutes were his dismal as the | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
weather, Harry Kane with the only
chance before the break. Minutes | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
into the second half the Premier
League 's top goal-scorer rose to | 0:07:57 | 0:08:02 | |
the occasion to score his seventh
goal in seven games against Arsenal. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:08 | |
Despite the Tottenham dominance they
failed to capitalise on their | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
chances. Petr Cech appeared at times
to single-handedly be keeping the | 0:08:10 | 0:08:15 | |
visitors in the game. Further agony
for Arsenal as Lacazette missed a | 0:08:15 | 0:08:20 | |
golden opportunity in the final
minutes of the game. A crushing blow | 0:08:20 | 0:08:25 | |
to Arsene Wenger's top four hopes as
Spurs go seven points clear of their | 0:08:25 | 0:08:30 | |
north London rivals. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:36 | |
The former Republic of Ireland
midfielder Liam Miller has | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
died at the age of 36. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
He had cancer. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:45 | |
There was a minute's silence before
Celtic's Scottish Cup win over | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
Partick Thistle to remember Miller
who'd played for Celtic | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
as well as Manchester United. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:54 | |
The Winter Olympics in South Korea
are in full flow and it's been | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
a mixed day for Team GB. | 0:08:58 | 0:08:59 | |
The men's snowboarders crashed-out
in the slopestyle heats but speed | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
skater Elise Christie is safely
through to the quarter-finals | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
of the 500m short track. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:05 | |
Our correspondent Andy Swiss
reports from Pyonchang. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:06 | |
She is Britain's biggest medal hope.
Christie going to the front. Elise | 0:09:09 | 0:09:16 | |
Christie was soon showing why,
leading her 500 metres heat from | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
start to finish, setting a new
Olympic record. Christie wins it. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:24 | |
Some statement of intent. After her
disqualification in the last Games, | 0:09:24 | 0:09:28 | |
what relief. So nervous. I thought
maybe I'm not going to do it but it | 0:09:28 | 0:09:34 | |
was fine. I got to the line, I was
excited and I'm glad I got in front | 0:09:34 | 0:09:39 | |
of everyone again. But British roads
in the snowboarding came crashing | 0:09:39 | 0:09:43 | |
down. Oh, Jamie. Jamie Nicholls and
then his team-mate Billy Morgan both | 0:09:43 | 0:09:50 | |
tumbled out of the slopestyle event.
In the women's cross-country skiing, | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
the first gold medal when of the
game, for Sweden's Charlotte Kalla. | 0:09:54 | 0:10:02 | |
£14 is was a day of mixed fortunes,
disappointment on the snow but Elise | 0:10:02 | 0:10:08 | |
Christie's hopes for gold are off to
the perfect start -- for Team GB | 0:10:08 | 0:10:13 | |
this was a day of mixed fortunes.
Plenty more on the BBC sport website | 0:10:13 | 0:10:19 | |
including news of another Twenty20
defeat for England's cricketers in | 0:10:19 | 0:10:21 | |
Australia. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
That's it. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
I'll be back with the late news
a little earlier tonight at 2110. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:45 |
