:00:08. > :00:18.Newsnight exposes the shocking treament being meths out to - meted
:00:19. > :00:22.out to those in brain injury specialist units. Grant the staff
:00:23. > :00:25.are coming in, they will come in, you have been told repeatedly the
:00:26. > :00:30.staff are coming to wash you. We have to have handover first. The NHS
:00:31. > :00:34.Trust involved accept it was appalling. Will be talking to a
:00:35. > :00:38.former patient who has been through the system, and with her, the woman
:00:39. > :00:43.who is playing a key role in sorting it out. Rare pictures of Guantanamo
:00:44. > :00:50.detention camp have been broadcast on US television. Act with us like a
:00:51. > :00:56.human being, not like slaves. That is the voice of Shakar Ama, a UK
:00:57. > :01:01.resident. His lawyer is here with his reaction. We're treated to the
:01:02. > :01:12.first guided tour of Tate Britain transformed.
:01:13. > :01:16.Good evening, when someone suffers a severe brain injury, their chances
:01:17. > :01:19.of recovery often rest upon the quality of the programme of
:01:20. > :01:22.rehabilitation they receive. Sometimes relatives find it very
:01:23. > :01:27.difficult to gauge the quality of that care. But what is indisbutable
:01:28. > :01:38.is an expertise in care for brain-injured patients is uneven
:01:39. > :01:49.across England. We have the story of desperate measures of a man's
:01:50. > :02:00.treament in rehabilitation specialists. Every 90 seconds -- in
:02:01. > :02:05.seconds their life and the lives of their families are changed. That's
:02:06. > :02:11.what happened to Grant Clarke, he was 43 when he had a massive brain
:02:12. > :02:15.emridge. He dropped the children off at school and then he was arranging
:02:16. > :02:21.to go motor cross the following day, he had gone over to where the
:02:22. > :02:30.motorbikes were scored and just collapsed. Grant was left severely
:02:31. > :02:34.physically disabled, mentally he was fine but he couldn't really speak.
:02:35. > :02:38.18 months on he's still not home, and his partner feels he was let
:02:39. > :02:46.down by poor care at his first specialist rehab unit. I was told he
:02:47. > :02:49.would be there for 3-4 months, and I thought rehabilitation was exactly
:02:50. > :02:55.that, rehabilitation, to get you home. After injury the brain has to
:02:56. > :03:00.effectively build new pathways so that the person can regain the
:03:01. > :03:06.ability to do things. That can take weeks, months, even years. And it
:03:07. > :03:12.shows why it is so important to have good care and rehabilitation. That
:03:13. > :03:19.process of helping Grant relearn skills was meant to happen here, at
:03:20. > :03:24.the West Kent neuro-Rehab bill station unit. Not long after he
:03:25. > :03:30.arrived here in August last year, they started to worry. He didn't
:03:31. > :03:35.have his teeth washed his armpits watches, he was in urine all the
:03:36. > :03:41.time, every time I went to see him wet to his armpits and cold. She
:03:42. > :03:50.felt her complaints were ignored, so decided to taken a extreme step. He
:03:51. > :03:55.was trying inconsolably, and I said would it be better if I got a camera
:03:56. > :03:58.for your room. He stopped crying almost immediately and nodded yes.
:03:59. > :04:06.From the first day the secret camera picked up care that shocked Binny.
:04:07. > :04:09.This LAELT care worker starts cleaning the top of the tube that
:04:10. > :04:13.delivers food, fluid and medicine straight to Grant's stop marks care
:04:14. > :04:19.is needed because of the risk of infection. She does use an
:04:20. > :04:26.antiseptic wipe, but also borrows a pen and uses that. And over ten days
:04:27. > :04:30.Grant's call bell, his means of getting help is taken away for three
:04:31. > :04:37.times, for between ten and 16 minutes. On this occasion, when he
:04:38. > :04:42.presses the bell, a healthcare worker notes he's wet with urine,
:04:43. > :04:45.and said he will have to wait until staff changeover is finish. Still
:04:46. > :04:50.waiting five minutes later he buzzes again. This time a senior member of
:04:51. > :05:05.staff comes in and takes away the call bell. More than ten minutes
:05:06. > :05:08.later and with no call bell Grant starts pressing a keypad to get
:05:09. > :05:12.attention. When the same woman returns she's not pleased. By now
:05:13. > :05:15.Grant has been sitting in his own urine for more than a quarter of an
:05:16. > :05:37.hour. But what Binny saw two nights
:05:38. > :05:41.running horrified her, Grant wasn't meant to have anything by mouth,
:05:42. > :05:47.unable to swallow, choking could be life threatening for him. The camera
:05:48. > :05:51.shows an experienced healthcare worker giving Grant drinks of water
:05:52. > :06:01.on five occasions. Here Grant starts to cough, the worker whispers him to
:06:02. > :06:06.keep it quiet. Binny was really worried and overall Grant was making
:06:07. > :06:11.no progress. He had to get out of there, I knew that he wouldn't come
:06:12. > :06:14.home, I told them he wouldn't come home if he stays here and you keep
:06:15. > :06:19.treating him like this, he's not going to make him home. Questioned
:06:20. > :06:23.by police the healthcare worker said he regretted giving the drinks and
:06:24. > :06:30.now realised his poor judgment had endangered Grant, no charges were
:06:31. > :06:35.brought. The West Kent unit said it specialised in eurorehabilitation,
:06:36. > :06:40.but shockingly -- neurorehabilitation, but shockingly,
:06:41. > :06:46.an investigation found only one member of staff had specialist
:06:47. > :06:50.training in brain injury. The Trust upheld the 26 complaints that the
:06:51. > :06:53.family made against the Trust for the four months he was here last
:06:54. > :07:19.year and he was moved to place a safety. The Trust says:
:07:20. > :07:32.I think the attitude of the staff is very important as well. Professor
:07:33. > :07:34.Mike cap Barnes has specialised in euro-rehabilitation medicine for
:07:35. > :07:38.four decades. He says it is difficult to find people with
:07:39. > :07:44.specialist training in this field but it is vital. You can't do good
:07:45. > :07:48.quality rehabilitation without good quality people. It is not about
:07:49. > :07:52.fancy equipment or scans, or equipment at all, it is about the
:07:53. > :07:55.quality of the person that provides the hands-on assistance. He believes
:07:56. > :08:01.that services for people with acquired brain injuries are too hit
:08:02. > :08:05.and miss. There are some very good rehabilitation centres in this
:08:06. > :08:09.country. But equally, I'm afraid, there are units around the country
:08:10. > :08:12.that really don't provide proper co-ordinated rehabilitation at all.
:08:13. > :08:17.Yet that is what they are called, that, I think, is a sad reflection
:08:18. > :08:22.on something that needs to be done. And it's people like Shamell
:08:23. > :08:25.Courtney and her husband Mark, who have experienced what a lack of
:08:26. > :08:34.specialist care can mean in practice time and again. In March 2007 Mark
:08:35. > :08:38.had a major asthma attack, it left him severely brain-damaged. He needs
:08:39. > :08:44.24-hour care, round the clock, one-to-one. He's totally dependant
:08:45. > :08:49.on all his needs, nutritional, manual handling, washing, dressing,
:08:50. > :08:54.absolutely everything. So long after the brain injury her concerns now
:08:55. > :08:58.are less about Mark's rehabilitation, more about the
:08:59. > :09:03.failings in basic care which has meant she has been asked to train
:09:04. > :09:06.staff herself. He has been in four different placements in the past
:09:07. > :09:14.six-and-a-half years, I have not found that any placement is ideal.
:09:15. > :09:18.They all have their serious risks to these patients. That if I wasn't
:09:19. > :09:26.there, then you know, I don't think he would be here either. For Grant
:09:27. > :09:29.Clarke, being in a new unit that is providing good care and the
:09:30. > :09:33.rehabilitation he needs seems to be making a real difference. At the
:09:34. > :09:39.last place he was told his future was in a nursing home. Thanks to the
:09:40. > :09:44.progress he has made here, he's now starting to spend time back home
:09:45. > :09:48.with his family. There is good evidence that although
:09:49. > :09:51.rehabilitation costs more money clearly than someone going home or
:09:52. > :09:55.to a nursing home. That money is recouped over two-to-three years by
:09:56. > :10:02.that person requiring less support from the state, getting back to work
:10:03. > :10:07.and therefore earning money. So the short-term investment in further
:10:08. > :10:11.rehabilitation for six months or a year will be recouped by the state
:10:12. > :10:22.over two-to-three years. Grant is now starting to speak more, and he
:10:23. > :10:31.has clear goals. What is it you want to achieve? To walk. To walk. What
:10:32. > :10:39.about going home, how important is that to you? Very. Very. The fight
:10:40. > :10:46.to get the right help has added to the trauma they faced. They find
:10:47. > :10:50.that hard to understand. We asked NHS England to come on to Newsnight
:10:51. > :10:56.tonight and discuss care provision for patients with brain injuries,
:10:57. > :11:03.nobody was available. But the National Clinical Direct for
:11:04. > :11:31.Rehabilitation and Recovery in the Community gave the
:11:32. > :11:41.Here tonight we have Kate Allatt who survived Lock In Syndrome, and knows
:11:42. > :11:45.how vital good treatment is, and a rehab specialist who has been asked
:11:46. > :11:48.to lead the NHS for the revised treatment of brain injury patients.
:11:49. > :11:55.Good evening to both of you. What do you make of Grant Clarke's story?
:11:56. > :12:00.Well, it is difficult to comment on individual cases of course. But
:12:01. > :12:04.really that doesn't look at all the sort of standard one would expect to
:12:05. > :12:09.have. I think the point about that is that it really underlines the
:12:10. > :12:17.necessity to have patients who have complex disabilities cared for by
:12:18. > :12:20.staff. One staff was specialist in the treatment. That is
:12:21. > :12:24.extraordinary, calling itself a specialist unit and one trained
:12:25. > :12:29.specialist unit? And the British society of the Rehabilitation
:12:30. > :12:34.Medicine has set out standards to say what we would expect staff to be
:12:35. > :12:37.on those specialised unit, and the recommendation is at least a third
:12:38. > :12:41.of the staff to have specialised training in the nursing staff.
:12:42. > :12:45.Before I talk about what happened to you, I know you campaign on behalf
:12:46. > :12:49.of relatives and families. Presumably Grant Clarke and Mark's
:12:50. > :12:53.cases are not isolated? They are not isolated. There are a lot of people
:12:54. > :12:56.I deal with who have great experiences in rehab, if they get
:12:57. > :13:00.the opportunity to go to rehab. Which isn't always the case. So I
:13:01. > :13:05.have to say that, there are some good example, mine was very good.
:13:06. > :13:10.But this was appalling. Appalling, my heart goes out. But how often do
:13:11. > :13:15.we see vulnerable people in society being neglected like that, across
:13:16. > :13:22.all sectors. And for you, what happened to you? I had a brainstem
:13:23. > :13:27.stroke with Locked In Syndrome in February 2010, that left me unable
:13:28. > :13:30.to do anything to communicate through blinking. That was it,
:13:31. > :13:37.nothing else moved. I felt everything but I could move nothing.
:13:38. > :13:46.The process of getting better, is it about a partnership, the way that
:13:47. > :13:49.nurse was talking to Grant like a child. Well again I think that is
:13:50. > :13:55.appalling and very patronising, I think that is very controlling. I
:13:56. > :14:00.think the key thing in rehabilitation units there should be
:14:01. > :14:06.a specialised neuroteam, speech therapist, neuro-psychologist,
:14:07. > :14:12.neuro-physiotherapists, and I think especially in europsychologists, as
:14:13. > :14:16.part of a re-- neuro-psychologists, I think you need loved ones on
:14:17. > :14:19.board. You were unable to communicate, they wouldn't know if
:14:20. > :14:23.you were receiving proper care or not? Exactly, and also you have to
:14:24. > :14:29.also factor in the fact that loved ones tend to, a lot of loved ones
:14:30. > :14:33.tend to believe the doctor in the white coat because they don't know
:14:34. > :14:42.any different. Part of the problem is that you can't be guaranteed, as
:14:43. > :14:48.we said, what did Professor Michael Baines said, that there were units
:14:49. > :14:52.that don't provide proper co-ordinated care at all. It is a
:14:53. > :14:56.postcode lottery? Indeed, it is fair to say up until now rehabilitation
:14:57. > :15:00.has been something of a Cinderella speciality. Much of the focus has
:15:01. > :15:06.been on acute and frontline services. Specialised rehabilitation
:15:07. > :15:11.hasn't had the level of prioritisation that we would want to
:15:12. > :15:15.see. Is that because as the professor was saying that the
:15:16. > :15:19.initial injection of cash is high for rehabilitation, but it is down
:15:20. > :15:23.the line that the savings are made and trusts saying they can't afford
:15:24. > :15:27.it? It does look expensive to start off with, when you see those
:15:28. > :15:30.advantages play out over the life of the patient and we're often looking,
:15:31. > :15:35.as indeed in this film and quite young patients who have got the rest
:15:36. > :15:38.of their lives to really make the gains. Is that about the budgets of
:15:39. > :15:42.hospitals, they would like to think about the outcome three or four
:15:43. > :15:45.years down the road, but they are concerned about their budget over
:15:46. > :15:48.the next 12 months. Absolutely, that is partly the way the system is
:15:49. > :15:51.funded at the moment going from year-to-year. Are you suggesting it
:15:52. > :15:55.shouldn't be funded like that? No, I think one would like to see
:15:56. > :16:01.long-term planning and strategy really trying to make sure that we
:16:02. > :16:05.take advantage. We have, as Mike said really good evidence that
:16:06. > :16:09.rehabilitation can be cost effective, we need to make sure we
:16:10. > :16:14.do reap those benefits. On just the question of your rehabilitation, how
:16:15. > :16:19.did that play out, were you with the same staff, did you have continuity
:16:20. > :16:25.of care. I was in ICU for nine weeks and then went to 0s George Osborne
:16:26. > :16:29.straight there, and they were an amazing team. They had a very driven
:16:30. > :16:36.patient. Motivation of the loved one, motivation of the patient and
:16:37. > :16:39.the team, who identified with a young mother with three kids at
:16:40. > :16:43.home, it was easy for them to do something for me, because they could
:16:44. > :16:48.see and feel my might. They got out of me as much as I did out of them.
:16:49. > :16:53.It was two-way and I worked hard. I think that is important. Also
:16:54. > :16:57.rehabilitation, I have to say the rehabilitation should start earlier
:16:58. > :17:05.than it does in this country, it should start in ICU as it does in
:17:06. > :17:12.Denmark, two days after the coma. J In a moment rare access to the side
:17:13. > :17:17.of Guantanamo pay BAI detention camp. The Reverend Paul Flowers who
:17:18. > :17:24.led the Co-Op bank when it almost fell off the precipice was charged
:17:25. > :17:28.with allegedly trying to buy cocaine. Today the accusations about
:17:29. > :17:32.his behaviour were less about the drug deal about how about man with
:17:33. > :17:38.almost no experience of banking got the job in the first place. A review
:17:39. > :17:42.has been announced by the bank. Talk about breaking bad with a dose
:17:43. > :17:47.of breaking banks to go with it. The story of Paul DMROURS is
:17:48. > :17:51.extraordinary as it is multileveled. A Methodist minister, who
:17:52. > :17:58.aauthoriseding a Sunday newspaper sting put the meth into Methodist.
:17:59. > :18:04.Handing over ?200 for buying drugs. What else are we going to get, Ket?
:18:05. > :18:11.Up until June he was chairman of the Co-Op bank, a bank that went from
:18:12. > :18:15.one financial disaster to another, eventually being bailed out by hedge
:18:16. > :18:19.funds. The Reverend's life was in contrast to his poorer banking
:18:20. > :18:24.experience. I worked for bank for four years after I left school, and
:18:25. > :18:27.I undertook the examinations of the Institute of Bankers, I completed
:18:28. > :18:33.part one and the best part of part two of those explanations before I
:18:34. > :18:37.went to become a Methodist minister. So I have some experience but I
:18:38. > :18:44.would judge that experience was largely out of date in relation to
:18:45. > :18:49.the needs of contemporary banking, nonetheless I still had that
:18:50. > :18:54.grounding. All that training in pre-desminute analogue banking four
:18:55. > :18:58.decades ago must have been some use. Still he would be right on the money
:18:59. > :19:02.to give us the modern numbers, wouldn't he. Give everybody who is
:19:03. > :19:07.listening to this an idea of the size of the Co-Op Bank, roughly what
:19:08. > :19:12.is your total asset value? About just over ?3 billion. I'm talking
:19:13. > :19:17.about the assets so we are looking at the balance sheet here. I'm
:19:18. > :19:22.talking about the balance sheets and the asset figures were ?3 billion.
:19:23. > :19:28.You are offering me and I'm telling you that your annual accounts show
:19:29. > :19:33.it at ?47 billion. Indeed they did, forgive me. Your loan book is about
:19:34. > :19:38.?32 billion. It is one of the features of our banking crisis that
:19:39. > :19:41.when the dust settled it was clear that many of the people who had been
:19:42. > :19:45.approved by the regulators to steward our most important
:19:46. > :19:48.institutions were in retrospect wholly unsuitable. Though on the
:19:49. > :19:54.evidence of recent revelations, perhaps the Reverend Paul Flowers
:19:55. > :19:58.will be in a league of his own. Earlier I spoke to the chair of the
:19:59. > :20:03.Treasury Select Committee you saw there, I began by asking him how
:20:04. > :20:08.someone like Paul Flowers could be chairman of a large bank without any
:20:09. > :20:13.banking experience? What we discovered, if we didn't already
:20:14. > :20:18.know, is that the system of regulation was a flop, a failure. It
:20:19. > :20:22.was scarcely worth having. This called approved persons regime meant
:20:23. > :20:27.almost anybody could get through. I think it is important that we find
:20:28. > :20:31.out how exactly he was scrutinised. How he did get through in this
:20:32. > :20:35.specific case, and I will be writing to the regulators to ask them that
:20:36. > :20:39.question. He was interviewed by the FSA to be a non-executive director
:20:40. > :20:43.and he had a second interview when he became a chairman, this is at the
:20:44. > :20:47.height of the banking crisis. It is quite extraordinary at least I would
:20:48. > :20:50.feel it would be extraordinary did we not already know on the banking
:20:51. > :20:55.commission, which I also chaired in the summer, that this regime, this
:20:56. > :20:58.approved persons regime was not fit for purpose. That is why we
:20:59. > :21:02.recommended not to reform it but abolish it and replace it by
:21:03. > :21:07.something much more robust. Are you confident that your recommendations
:21:08. > :21:10.will be implemented in full? I can't be fully confident yet, it is
:21:11. > :21:13.crucial that parliament and the banking commissioners hold the
:21:14. > :21:16.Government's feet to the fire on this and make sure they implement
:21:17. > :21:20.these proposals in full. They are a package of measures, if taken
:21:21. > :21:27.together, can make a material difference to the way banks behave.
:21:28. > :21:31.You highlighted something to David Cameron something you worry will not
:21:32. > :21:35.be implemented what is that? There are a number, the Government haven't
:21:36. > :21:38.worked out the definition of a bank for the purposes of the legislation,
:21:39. > :21:42.that was made clear in the debate in the House of Lords, the Government
:21:43. > :21:47.have gone to think about it. Their definition of a banks could exclude
:21:48. > :21:51.investment banks. Most of us feel investment banks should be included
:21:52. > :21:55.in the licensing regime that we have proposed in the replacement for the
:21:56. > :22:00.very regime that went wrong here with the Reverend Flowers. When he
:22:01. > :22:05.was in front of you, at the Treasury select, did you have any idea that
:22:06. > :22:10.perhaps it was something to do with his lifestyle that he might have
:22:11. > :22:15.been behaving the way, say in the assets of the bank saying they were
:22:16. > :22:19.?3 billion and not ?40 billion? We will never know why he seemed in a
:22:20. > :22:23.sense slightly short of the odd fact about the bank that he was running.
:22:24. > :22:27.It is extraordinary that he had no idea at all about the asset base of
:22:28. > :22:32.his own bank after several years as chairman. Now, there are lots of
:22:33. > :22:36.non-executives in banks, are you confident that all the
:22:37. > :22:45.non-executives in large banks in this country are up to the job? You
:22:46. > :22:49.can FLEFR be -- never be absolutely confident of that. We have put in
:22:50. > :22:53.place a regulatory regime we are hoping the Government will
:22:54. > :22:56.implement. If it is implemented fully should achieve that. That
:22:57. > :23:01.means intensive interviews, not only at the beginning, but also during
:23:02. > :23:05.people's tenure, to pick up whether anything is going wrong, a very
:23:06. > :23:08.detailed list of what their responsible for, as individuals,
:23:09. > :23:11.which can then be checked back to see how they are doing. And with
:23:12. > :23:15.these interviews conducted by very senior people. I understand the veg
:23:16. > :23:19.lators are -- regulators are beginning to do that. The problem is
:23:20. > :23:23.going forward you could have these interviews for non-executive
:23:24. > :23:26.directors that are more rigorous to ascertain their background and
:23:27. > :23:29.experience. I'm talking about the non-executive directors in the banks
:23:30. > :23:32.at the moment. Can you retrospectively test them? Of
:23:33. > :23:36.course, one can have them come forward to be looked at to see if
:23:37. > :23:40.they fit the standards of the new regime. And in time those incumbents
:23:41. > :23:45.should be checked in that way. Are you confident the Government will go
:23:46. > :23:48.ahead and implement that in full? I'm confident that the spirit is
:23:49. > :23:52.willing. We have to make sure that the flesh doesn't weaken.
:23:53. > :23:55.Thank you very much indeed. Get with the programme, and get on with it.
:23:56. > :23:59.That was David Cameron's instruction when he made his displeasure clear
:24:00. > :24:03.last year after the Church of England had rejected the ordination
:24:04. > :24:05.of women bishops. This week new legislation thrashed out between
:24:06. > :24:11.different groupings in the church will be debated at the synod, if the
:24:12. > :24:15.synod approves it, it will be the first step towards the concecration
:24:16. > :24:31.of women bishops as early as next year. Opposition to the reform is
:24:32. > :24:35.crumbling by the day. The synod began with a rousing hymn
:24:36. > :24:40.of praise to Jesus, and prayers for the unity of the church in line with
:24:41. > :24:52.the usual practice. In this bastion of tradition. But even here, immured
:24:53. > :24:56.in Westminster, a modern world has intervened, no longer can the church
:24:57. > :25:01.afford to insulate itself against a fast-moving technological society,
:25:02. > :25:06.which prizes equality so highly, and finds discrimination hard to
:25:07. > :25:10.understand. Women have served as Anglican priests for almost 20
:25:11. > :25:14.years, and now make up almost a third of the Clergy. Priests such as
:25:15. > :25:18.Rosie Harper have become increasingly impatient as successive
:25:19. > :25:22.attempts to create women bishops have ended in failure. Well I think
:25:23. > :25:26.the way the world, the country in particular, the whole world reacted
:25:27. > :25:29.to the "no" vote in November was a real wake-up call. People are only
:25:30. > :25:33.just beginning to realise in the Church of England how ridiculous we
:25:34. > :25:37.look from the outside. And we had such a precious place in our
:25:38. > :25:40.society, being the conscience for the country, people would refer to
:25:41. > :25:44.the church, see what we believed and that would be a touchstone. Because
:25:45. > :25:48.of that vote amongst other things this has been reversed in recent
:25:49. > :25:51.years, so that the country in many ways thinks they have deeper and
:25:52. > :25:55.higher ethical values than the church. In November last year lay
:25:56. > :26:00.members of the synod blocked the legislation by a narrow margin,
:26:01. > :26:05.arguing that it did too little to he can cement traditionalists from
:26:06. > :26:10.serving under bishops. If anyone has a Bible. After the tears of last
:26:11. > :26:16.November, there is a lighter mood this week. Or even an iPad would be
:26:17. > :26:21.wonderful! New proposals for women bishops have generated a sense of
:26:22. > :26:25.expectation, even excitement. After years of bitter debate, the Church
:26:26. > :26:29.of England seems this week to be genuinely on the brink of an
:26:30. > :26:34.historic decision, to accept women bishops. Despite being offered
:26:35. > :26:38.rather less than before, low church evangelicals and High Church
:26:39. > :26:41.Catholics seem to be ready to bow to the inevitable. The reason, apart
:26:42. > :26:45.from the continuing damage to the church done by the debate, and the
:26:46. > :26:49.increasing bewilderment of the world outside, it seems to come down to a
:26:50. > :26:54.relatively simple plan. The appointment of an independent
:26:55. > :26:58.arbitrator or ombudsman. The latest proposals have been simplified and
:26:59. > :27:02.if passed would lead to the legislative process being speeded
:27:03. > :27:06.up. Leading to a final vote on women bishops next July. This time
:27:07. > :27:12.concessions to traditionalists would not be written into the law. But
:27:13. > :27:17.critically they would be backed by an ombudsman-style independent
:27:18. > :27:21.reviewer. For traditionalists on the Catholic wing of the church, such as
:27:22. > :27:26.David Holding, Jesus's choice only of men as apostles means that women
:27:27. > :27:31.are simply incapable of being priests. Still less bishops. But
:27:32. > :27:35.Father Holding is now ready to compromise. I think it is inevitable
:27:36. > :27:39.it can go through, I don't think we can carry on holding this back, it
:27:40. > :27:43.doesn't do us good we waste a lot of time and energy. It is very
:27:44. > :27:46.important that we do move forward. I have always said we want to move
:27:47. > :27:50.forward together. I haven't seen that possibility in the past. I see
:27:51. > :27:54.it now. That is why this is quite exciting. Others who voted against
:27:55. > :27:58.women bishops last November are also changing their minds. We helped to
:27:59. > :28:03.defeat it because we believed that it was putting at risk some
:28:04. > :28:06.absolutely essential elements in the tradition. And we needed to make
:28:07. > :28:11.sure that those people would still be with us, would be able to go on
:28:12. > :28:15.serving Jesus in that way. I believe that this legislation may be able to
:28:16. > :28:21.do that. Even the cleric leading conservative
:28:22. > :28:26.evangelicals in synod is ready to accept the inevitable. The church is
:28:27. > :28:29.on the brink of women bishops and I personally think that is contrary to
:28:30. > :28:34.what the Bible advises for church order, but it is not an essential
:28:35. > :28:38.issue and therefore it is one that we can learn to live with each other
:28:39. > :28:45.on. Provided everybody sticks to their side of the bargain. A final
:28:46. > :28:50.vote next July and confirmation by Anglican diocese could see women
:28:51. > :28:53.sitting among the bishops by 2015. Little did the church know that the
:28:54. > :29:04.sol illusion lay in turning to a new figure in the process, the
:29:05. > :29:09.arbitrator. CBS's 60-Minutes Programme has broadcast from inside
:29:10. > :29:14.Guantanamo Bay, where 164 men suspected of being as terrorists
:29:15. > :29:19.have been kept indefinitely without charge. In the film which shows the
:29:20. > :29:25.tension inside the prison, you can hear the voice of a British prisoner
:29:26. > :29:30.shouting out. He was identified as Shak Amr, his lawyer is with us. How
:29:31. > :29:36.significant is the new footage? It is significant, it is very rare for
:29:37. > :29:39.film crews to get access to Guantanamo Bay, it gives youen sight
:29:40. > :29:45.into what life is like inside the prison. If we look at it here, we
:29:46. > :29:50.see guards walking up and down the corridor in camp 5, prisoners are
:29:51. > :29:56.held in single cells, others in isolation. Here we have more insight
:29:57. > :30:00.into life in a cell. And you can see someone going about day-to-day
:30:01. > :30:03.business. And a group of prisoners reaching the point where they go for
:30:04. > :30:08.prayers. Again we see the guards going up and down with the
:30:09. > :30:11.protective massingks on, which -- masks on, because we are told the
:30:12. > :30:16.prisoners will sometimes throw things at them. What about this
:30:17. > :30:21.British resident? We are dealing with Shaka Amr, a British resident
:30:22. > :30:26.and Saudi national. This is his Department of Defence US file. And
:30:27. > :30:29.basically this file alleges that the detainee is a member of Al-Qaeda,
:30:30. > :30:33.tied to the European support network. It is important to say that
:30:34. > :30:38.he denies this and he has never been tried for it. Let's have a look at
:30:39. > :30:45.what he was saying now. Even you leave us to die in peace. Or even
:30:46. > :30:50.tell the world the truth. Open up the place. Let the world come and
:30:51. > :30:58.visit. Please Colonel, act with us like a human being. Not like slaves.
:30:59. > :31:03.You cannot walk not even half a metre without being chained. Is that
:31:04. > :31:10.a human being? That's a treatment of an animal! Thank you very much, I'm
:31:11. > :31:13.joined by the lawyer of the prisoner. You have been in there
:31:14. > :31:17.many times, what did you make of what you could see there? I have to
:31:18. > :31:20.say I have been there 30 times, I have spent almost a year down there,
:31:21. > :31:25.that is the first time I have ever seen someone with those masks on. I
:31:26. > :31:30.see the soldiers every time. This was all set up for CBS. They took
:31:31. > :31:36.them to one block on camp 5 and they tried to structure it in the words
:31:37. > :31:40.of Colonel Bogden, the guy in charge, to show that every single
:31:41. > :31:45.prisoner there is an evil Al-Qaeda person trying to kill everybody, it
:31:46. > :31:50.is total nonsense. But your own client there has been this series of
:31:51. > :31:53.letters and the UK Government and the US President asking for his
:31:54. > :31:56.return to the UK. What has happened to that? I think the most important
:31:57. > :32:01.thing we need to recognise is for all the allegations that people have
:32:02. > :32:05.made, Shaka has been cleared for release for six years now. And he's
:32:06. > :32:11.still sitting there. What we have to ask ourselves and what Shakar asks
:32:12. > :32:17.themself every day, if I'm cleared where -- himself every day, if I'm
:32:18. > :32:20.cleared why am I here. I sent a letter tonight to William Hague
:32:21. > :32:24.because he had written a personal letter about everything the
:32:25. > :32:28.Government had done. And Shakar wanted to thank William Hague, and
:32:29. > :32:32.wanted to ask him why is he still there. As Richard was saying he has
:32:33. > :32:37.been described as an Al-Qaeda affiliate? Well he's not. You know,
:32:38. > :32:41.I was down there the other day and I said what I have often said which is
:32:42. > :32:45.put up or shut up. And he has been cleared, he isn't an Al-Qaeda
:32:46. > :32:52.affiliate, he never hadding? To do with Al-Qaeda. How was he cleared?
:32:53. > :32:57.He was cleared by Bush and Obama, it is not like it is one person, all
:32:58. > :33:02.six of the major American secret agencies, the CIA, the FBI, everyone
:33:03. > :33:06.else has got together and said this guy is not a threat to anyone. Why
:33:07. > :33:12.isn't he coming home? Oh please, would you tell me. I will tell you
:33:13. > :33:15.why I think t this is what Shakar says, I can't talk about the
:33:16. > :33:20.classified evidence I have seen. I have to be clear about that. What
:33:21. > :33:26.seems clear, as much as I don't doubt for one second the bona fides
:33:27. > :33:31.of David Cameron and William Hague, I think they are being stabbed in
:33:32. > :33:36.the back by the British Intelligence Services. Shakar has given a
:33:37. > :33:39.three-day statement about British complicity in torture, the only way
:33:40. > :33:43.that becomes a criminal case against certain people is if he comes back
:33:44. > :33:48.to Britain and is a proper witness. If he's shipped to Saudi Arabia he
:33:49. > :33:52.can never be a witness and the case ends. I'm afraid there has been a
:33:53. > :33:56.lot of secret stuff going on behind people's backs and I wish people
:33:57. > :34:06.would stop it and just be up front. Do you think that films like this
:34:07. > :34:10.actually have any impact on the Obama Government? Do you know I
:34:11. > :34:17.don't really care. What this did was for the first time Shakar's daughter
:34:18. > :34:24.who hasn't seen him for 12 years, and his son, who has never seen his
:34:25. > :34:34.father, he was born on Valentine's Day in 2 O2, 2 -- 20 O2, the day he
:34:35. > :34:38.was put into detention. They heard their dad, and they were thrilled. I
:34:39. > :34:41.just hope those kids get to see their dad. While politicians and
:34:42. > :34:45.business leaders argue about the health of the economy, one sector
:34:46. > :34:51.enjoys rude good health, the art market. A work by a British artist,
:34:52. > :34:56.Francis Bacon, has set a new record of ?90 million at auction. And Tate
:34:57. > :35:05.Britain is about to unveil a ?40 million refit. At the centre of it
:35:06. > :35:12.all is the great Tate Panjandrum. Has he turned art anything something
:35:13. > :35:19.that will rival art, or has it exerted unfair influence.
:35:20. > :35:27.We went on a tour of his gaff. It is all a kind of alchemy, in these lean
:35:28. > :35:34.times, ?45 million conjured out of thin air, to splash on a grand
:35:35. > :35:39.refurbishment of the original Tate Gallery. Shimmering into view is the
:35:40. > :35:43.sourcer himself, Sir Nicholas Serota. This is a money that has
:35:44. > :35:49.been committed to making sure that we really show British art at its
:35:50. > :35:54.best. We're world leaders, historically and I would argue in
:35:55. > :35:58.the modern era in terms of what our artists have produced. We want to
:35:59. > :36:03.show it in the best possible way. In the case of Tate Britain it is a ?45
:36:04. > :36:08.million scheme, ?42 million of that has come from Trust, Foundations and
:36:09. > :36:12.individuals, only ?3 million from the lottery. There are recent
:36:13. > :36:16.figures that suggest per head of population that people in London and
:36:17. > :36:22.the south-east are spoilt compared to others? I think that the great
:36:23. > :36:26.thing about an institution like the Tate is it doesn't simply serve
:36:27. > :36:32.London but the whole country. We have more loans going out to ROEJal
:36:33. > :36:36.museum -- regional museums now than any time in the past. We work with
:36:37. > :36:42.partners in museums and galleries across the country. A restaurant is
:36:43. > :36:48.reopening, boasting this enchanted Muriel by Rex Whistler, a neglected
:36:49. > :36:53.British artist of the 20th century. The Ta Tereks and Nicholas Serota
:36:54. > :37:00.have been accused of having too much power over the careers of more
:37:01. > :37:06.recent artists. I think I would be really niave that I didn't recognise
:37:07. > :37:10.that if the Tate buys work by a young artist makes a difference. The
:37:11. > :37:15.market however has a way of absorbing that and any artist's
:37:16. > :37:20.price has to be sustained by a very great deal more than simply a
:37:21. > :37:24.purchase by the gallery. Do you ever walk around Tate Modern and pass a
:37:25. > :37:30.particular work and shudder and think, "what were we doing"? I think
:37:31. > :37:34.the great thing about having the responsibility for buying
:37:35. > :37:38.contemporary art is that you have an opportunity to make a judgment,
:37:39. > :37:45.present it to the public, last year we presented a major exhibition at
:37:46. > :37:50.Tate Modern of Damien Hirst, it had more visitors than any show we have
:37:51. > :37:57.done since we opened that building in 2000. It got some flack too? The
:37:58. > :38:02.Tatte -- Tate has a responsibility to show the work of leading British
:38:03. > :38:06.artists whose work is highly regarded internationally. The Tate
:38:07. > :38:14.has always been controversial, I hope it will remain so. Ladies and
:38:15. > :38:20.gentlemen the magnificent Tryptic of Lucian Freud by Francis Bacon. A
:38:21. > :38:30.painting by Francis Bacon of his friend, Lucian Freud fetched ?90
:38:31. > :38:37.million in the UK this month. It won't be in the UK but in an
:38:38. > :38:41.oligarch's front room. They live in Britain too and sometimes they lend
:38:42. > :38:45.works to the Tate or the National Gallery or other institutions. I
:38:46. > :38:50.don't think you should assume that the work, since it was bought by a
:38:51. > :38:54.private collector that it won't be available for the public to see.
:38:55. > :38:58.However historically once it goes into a private collection it does
:38:59. > :39:04.disappear for a period. How is the Turner Prize doing, the great Robert
:39:05. > :39:08.Hughes, admittedly a decade ago described it as soggy and flaccid.
:39:09. > :39:17.How is it now? Showing it outside London as we have begun to do
:39:18. > :39:22.outevery two years. It is in Derry in 2013, I'm pretty confident that
:39:23. > :39:26.some of those people who are winning the Turner Prize in this decade will
:39:27. > :39:30.be as well known as those who won it in the previous decades. Look at
:39:31. > :39:37.Steve McQueen, an artist who won the Turner Prize ten years ago,
:39:38. > :39:43.unregarded at that point. Now probably going to be receiving
:39:44. > :39:51.Oscars for his major feature film. Grayson Perry in his Reith lecture
:39:52. > :39:57.recently outed you as a fan of Sir iff Richard, and who isn't?
:39:58. > :40:06.# She's just a devil woman # She's gonna get you Grayson has
:40:07. > :40:09.his own view on the world, and he undoubtedly found some things in my
:40:10. > :40:17.bedroom. What was he doing in your bedroom, you don't have to tell me,
:40:18. > :40:22.that's true? Grayson came to really enjoyable party that we often give
:40:23. > :40:36.at Christmas. He had a SNOOP around, and he found a few things and I
:40:37. > :40:41.think he enjoyed himself. Are you a fan of Sir cliff? I'm fan you will
:40:42. > :40:48.of a music, I collect memorabilia of all kinds. Today the President of
:40:49. > :40:53.the Philippines criticised local Governmental officials for his
:40:54. > :40:59.country not being prepared for the devastation wrought by supertyphoon.
:41:00. > :41:02.The mayor of the worst-hit city pointed the finger straight back at
:41:03. > :41:07.the President. While the blame game went on, the effort to get aid to
:41:08. > :41:20.the thousands left striken stutters on. We have been across the island
:41:21. > :41:25.of Lette. The poor and the weak bore the brunt, their flimsy houses were
:41:26. > :41:32.flashed to pieces in -- smashed to pieces in the howling wind, and
:41:33. > :41:35.swept away in the flood. This is Tacloban, it suffered more than
:41:36. > :41:48.anywhere else. They barely even notice the bodies now. Joalen has
:41:49. > :41:55.been searching for her son, she accepts she's now looking for a
:41:56. > :42:00.corpse. TRANSLATION: We saw the warnings on TV, she says. But the
:42:01. > :42:11.sky was clear, there was no wind. We couldn't have expected this. She
:42:12. > :42:15.explains how she fled to the Town Hall as the waters rose, she texted
:42:16. > :42:21.her son to come, but he was trapped by the wind and waves. They shut the
:42:22. > :42:31.doors of the hall, she says, she was screaming, my son was swept away.
:42:32. > :42:38.Right out to sea. People head back to the island of Lette to check on
:42:39. > :42:49.homes or search for loved ones. Apprehensive about what they will
:42:50. > :42:56.find. The boat docks in this town. It avoided the flood, but not the
:42:57. > :43:07.200 mile an hour winds. They say that 90% of all the buildings here
:43:08. > :43:10.were damaged or destroyed. At the Town Hall they are busy trying to
:43:11. > :43:16.put a sticking plaster on a gaping wound. There is no power and almost
:43:17. > :43:21.no water in the town. Their own buildings are badly damaged. As they
:43:22. > :43:27.struggle to move aid supplies around rain pours down through the roof.
:43:28. > :43:34.The big towns like this are starting to get supplies, mostly flown in by
:43:35. > :43:40.the Americans. Slowly more police and more soldiers are being
:43:41. > :43:46.deployed. It is rumours and fear, when it gets dark and you have no
:43:47. > :43:53.roof, probably a few doors a few window, open or blown out. I think
:43:54. > :44:02.it is not unnatural to feel a sense of dread, a sense of fear, but it
:44:03. > :44:07.is, I don't know, I wanted to use the word "normal" I don't know what
:44:08. > :44:12.that means. The new normal, right across the
:44:13. > :44:16.road from the Town Hall. They haven't had so much as a sheet of
:44:17. > :44:25.plastic to reveal these hellish conditions. We follow the trail of
:44:26. > :44:37.devastation across the island. The scale of it never loses the power to
:44:38. > :44:41.shock. The men with the shovels are from Manila, it is a rare sign of a
:44:42. > :44:46.nationally directed aid effort, and people complain it has been largely
:44:47. > :44:50.absent. What happened here has touched off a national debate. One
:44:51. > :44:55.newspaper said the Government had been so ineffective they would
:44:56. > :44:58.rather than American general or a UN official take charge. The sheer
