Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:08.:00:09.

28 years after the Hillsborough disaster - six people

:00:10.:00:12.

96 people died at the football match.

:00:13.:00:19.

Among those to be charged are the policeman who was match

:00:20.:00:22.

Families of the victims say they feel vindicated.

:00:23.:00:31.

I'm absolutely delighted. We've got today everything we could have asked

:00:32.:00:34.

for. President Trump is facing

:00:35.:00:36.

more delays in his plan to replace Obamacare -

:00:37.:00:38.

and he's laying the blame Police say they now believe at least

:00:39.:00:40.

80 people died in the Grenfell Tower fire in London two weeks ago -

:00:41.:00:45.

and that some of the victims may And in sport, Michelle Payne,

:00:46.:00:49.

one of horse racing's best female best female jockeys,

:00:50.:01:00.

has been stood down from riding after testing positive

:01:01.:01:03.

for a banned substance. Yesterday, the Republicans

:01:04.:01:21.

pushed back their vote "With ZERO Democrats

:01:22.:01:23.

to help, and a failed, expensive and dangerous

:01:24.:01:39.

ObamaCare as the Democrats' legacy, the Republican

:01:40.:01:44.

Senators are working hard!" They are working hard -

:01:45.:01:45.

but they aren't agreeing. If they did,

:01:46.:01:48.

there would be no delay. The Republicans have

:01:49.:01:50.

a majority in the Senate. But eight senators

:01:51.:01:52.

are opposing the bill. One is Rand Paul, who says

:01:53.:01:57.

the reforms don't go far enough. She says it's unfair

:01:58.:02:01.

to poor and elderly people. The game-changer here seems to have

:02:02.:02:09.

been this report from the CBO - It's concluded that this bill

:02:10.:02:16.

will mean 22 million Americans will lose health insurance over

:02:17.:02:25.

the next ten years under the plans. If you are looking at the

:02:26.:02:39.

Republicans having problems on this issue, you may be getting deja vu,

:02:40.:02:43.

because they have problems the first time round a couple of months back.

:02:44.:02:48.

Katty Kay has talked me through it. They came up with a bill that has

:02:49.:02:54.

been incredibly unpopular here in the US. Only 12% approval rate. Now

:02:55.:03:00.

they have to go back to their districts for the 4th of July

:03:01.:03:04.

holiday, and they've got to try and sell something that people clearly

:03:05.:03:09.

don't like. The problem for the president is trying to come up with

:03:10.:03:13.

a bill that will win over moderate Republicans, who want it to be more

:03:14.:03:19.

generous, and to come up with a bill that will satisfy conservative

:03:20.:03:24.

Republicans, who bill to be more fiscally responsible, is going to be

:03:25.:03:28.

very difficult in deed. I don't see how they are going to do it. They

:03:29.:03:34.

are clearly struggling with it. What is the chronology here? How long do

:03:35.:03:37.

they have to get it through after the holiday? They have an almost

:03:38.:03:42.

three weeks before they get into the summer recess, the August recess.

:03:43.:03:48.

After that, time starts running out, because the president needs some

:03:49.:03:52.

kind of a win. The criticism of what the Republicans are doing here is

:03:53.:03:57.

that they are so desperate to get a tree on the health care bill, they

:03:58.:04:00.

don't really care what's in it. They just want to get it signed so they

:04:01.:04:05.

can move onto other things. But this is 20% of the American economy. It

:04:06.:04:11.

has a huge impact on people's lives and it really matters to people what

:04:12.:04:16.

is in the bill. The rush to get something signed is not going to go

:04:17.:04:21.

down with people when the senators go back to their districts for this

:04:22.:04:31.

holiday. Let's look at this uncertainty with the health care

:04:32.:04:35.

bill. It's being followed all over the US, especially in parts of the

:04:36.:04:40.

country that really need affordable care. Let's focus on Kentucky. The

:04:41.:04:46.

majority voted for Donald Trump there. Laura Bicker will tell us

:04:47.:04:55.

more. This is what Donald Trump described

:04:56.:05:03.

as "Forgotten America". Eastern Kentucky is now blighted by

:05:04.:05:09.

ill-health and an opiate crisis. Let's take a look at things. Clinics

:05:10.:05:16.

are seeing far higher rates of cancer, diabetes and heart disease

:05:17.:05:20.

than the rest of the US, and years of working at the coal face are

:05:21.:05:26.

taking its toll. I had a lung transplant. They gave me an option.

:05:27.:05:33.

They said if I did it, it would be five years life expectancy. Claude

:05:34.:05:37.

has black lung disease. He has to fight to breed. I worked underground

:05:38.:05:42.

for 27 years, and my lungs had shut down. When the mines shut, he lost

:05:43.:05:49.

his job and his health insurance, but his treatment is free due to

:05:50.:05:55.

Obamacare reforms. This doctor was voted country doctor of the year.

:05:56.:05:58.

Half his patients received government funded Medicaid. He

:05:59.:06:05.

warned against making this debate political. Other countries have set

:06:06.:06:10.

the ground work for us. We can take what they've done and build it to

:06:11.:06:14.

make the breast programme in the world. That is why the United States

:06:15.:06:18.

is as strong as it is. We have always taken things and made them

:06:19.:06:25.

better. Some feared that the Donald Trump this county voted for will cut

:06:26.:06:30.

care. He's not thinking about the little people. I don't know what

:06:31.:06:35.

he's thinking. He did promise he wouldn't take away Medicaid. He

:06:36.:06:40.

promised a lot, and he's went back on it. He promised a lot to get in

:06:41.:06:47.

office. So many people here have told us that Obamacare has saved

:06:48.:06:52.

their lives, but it has come at a cost. Hard-working, middle-income

:06:53.:06:56.

families say their insurance premiums have risen and they are

:06:57.:07:00.

struggling. They ask why they should be paying and suffering to help

:07:01.:07:06.

others. And that question is raised more often as opioid abuse it has

:07:07.:07:11.

become an epidemic. Few households have gone untouched. Courtney is

:07:12.:07:18.

four months pregnant. She's been given medication to slowly wean her

:07:19.:07:24.

off opioids. Her first son was born dependent on drugs. This time, she

:07:25.:07:28.

is determined to get the help she needs. I always have that fear of

:07:29.:07:34.

getting back on drugs, but I'm more excited than nervous, because I

:07:35.:07:39.

can't wait to be back normal and have my life back together, and be

:07:40.:07:44.

able to focus on things other than getting that feeling everyday.

:07:45.:07:49.

Doctors say this kind of intervention will save money in the

:07:50.:07:54.

long run, and save what is becoming a lost generation. This community is

:07:55.:08:04.

finding ways to look after its own, after enduring so many changes. They

:08:05.:08:08.

are hoping Washington is listening and will not turn its back on them

:08:09.:08:10.

now. Donald Trump is already fundraising

:08:11.:08:19.

for his reelection campaign. The President is hosting

:08:20.:08:21.

an event later at a hotel It's being hosted at the Trump

:08:22.:08:45.

International Hotel. I wanted to speak to Katty Kay about why the

:08:46.:08:51.

president would be fundraising for an election that is so far away. The

:08:52.:08:56.

problem here for the president, if you look at recent polls, supporters

:08:57.:09:01.

of the president really like him. They like his personality, the

:09:02.:09:05.

bombast, things that liberals might not be comfortable with in the way

:09:06.:09:09.

that he talks and directs policy, that they are very clear that they

:09:10.:09:13.

liked the idea that he's independent, and independent of

:09:14.:09:19.

political allegiances and financial interests. If he keeps having

:09:20.:09:24.

fundraisers, that could have an impact on his popularity with those

:09:25.:09:27.

people, who elected him because he wasn't in the pocket of anybody. It

:09:28.:09:34.

does suggest he firmly has his eye on 2020, running again and winning a

:09:35.:09:39.

second term. It might seem odd to people around the world that he is

:09:40.:09:42.

fundraising for an election that far down the track when next year they

:09:43.:09:52.

have the midterms. Well, elections here cost $4 billion. If you want to

:09:53.:09:56.

run for president of the US, you need to start fundraising pretty

:09:57.:10:00.

much the day after you've been elected first time round. I wanted

:10:01.:10:07.

to tell you this odd story, from the Washington Post.

:10:08.:10:11.

This TIME magazine cover hangs in several of Donald Trump's

:10:12.:10:14.

This was the actual cover on that date.

:10:15.:10:17.

Time have confirmed the cover adorning the golf

:10:18.:10:19.

Meanwhile, here's the President on Twitter calling:

:10:20.:10:33.

"CNN, NBC, CBS ABC, NY Times and Washington Post "Fake News".

:10:34.:10:38.

And just because the President does this all the time -

:10:39.:10:41.

This is a man who has repeatedly says things that

:10:42.:10:48.

are completely untrue - both in office and beforehand.

:10:49.:10:53.

And who now, from the White House, constantly seeks to debase America's

:10:54.:10:56.

journalists and the information they offer Americans.

:10:57.:10:58.

Corrode all trust in information, and Democracies

:10:59.:11:01.

These are complex times for the US news media and the Presidency.

:11:02.:11:12.

They are still working out how to interact with each other. Now, let's

:11:13.:11:20.

turn back to another very important story in the UK.

:11:21.:11:27.

Police say they now believe at least 80 people died

:11:28.:11:30.

in the Grenfell Tower fire - but the real figure may not be known

:11:31.:11:33.

It's been revealed that almost all of the people who died

:11:34.:11:37.

or are missing were in just 23 of the tower block's 129 flats.

:11:38.:11:40.

And police say that the intense heat of the fire means that some people

:11:41.:11:44.

Here's our Special Correspondent, Lucy Manning.

:11:45.:11:46.

You may find parts of her report distressing.

:11:47.:11:48.

23 flats where no one has been found.

:11:49.:11:52.

23 flats in this charred shell of a building,

:11:53.:11:56.

where police now presume no one has survived.

:11:57.:12:02.

Sajad Jamalvatan rushed home with his sister as the fire burned.

:12:03.:12:07.

His mother made it out from the third floor, but the family

:12:08.:12:12.

We are a very vulnerable family, my mum, my sister and myself.

:12:13.:12:20.

He has just had bad news about his sister.

:12:21.:12:24.

I think they will take her to hospital.

:12:25.:12:39.

And I don't think it's really fair for us to beg for help.

:12:40.:12:44.

Sajad is gathering his own list of survivors

:12:45.:12:50.

and missing - one of many here who just don't believe

:12:51.:12:52.

I do not believe the official figures.

:12:53.:12:57.

I really want to know what happened to my best friend.

:12:58.:12:59.

I really want to know what happened to my neighbour.

:13:00.:13:05.

The police did give a lot more detail today, much of it

:13:06.:13:08.

From the 23 flats where no one has been found, 26 999 calls

:13:09.:13:16.

The residents of the block started to move up to escape the flames,

:13:17.:13:25.

and it is thought many of them did gather in one flat.

:13:26.:13:30.

And the police now say it will take them until at least the end

:13:31.:13:35.

of the year to be sure how many people died here.

:13:36.:13:39.

We've looked at many lists given to us by the Government,

:13:40.:13:44.

by local the community, and also by other companies,

:13:45.:13:49.

such as fast food delivery companies.

:13:50.:13:53.

We are going everywhere to try and get a true number,

:13:54.:13:56.

For the survivors, there is still too much to feel

:13:57.:14:00.

If you don't give me permanent accommodation,

:14:01.:14:09.

I'm not just going to take any house you give me.

:14:10.:14:15.

If you give me a house I don't want, I'm not going to take it.

:14:16.:14:18.

What we are guaranteeing is that they will have an offer

:14:19.:14:21.

The inquest today heard about the death of Syrian refugee

:14:22.:14:26.

Mohammed Alhajali, found outside the building.

:14:27.:14:30.

Mother and daughter Rabiya and Husna Begum

:14:31.:14:33.

Mohammed Neda, a taxi driver, found outside the tower.

:14:34.:14:41.

77-year-old Abdulsalam Sedha who died on the 11th floor.

:14:42.:14:47.

Eight-year-old Malak and her sister, little Lina, just a baby.

:14:48.:14:58.

Malak and Leena and her parents were buried yesterday.

:14:59.:15:03.

Leena, the youngest victim of this fire.

:15:04.:15:07.

There is much more information on those who lost their lives and the

:15:08.:15:34.

investigation into the fire on the BBC News website.

:15:35.:15:38.

Scientists say they've come up with a painless

:15:39.:15:42.

skin patch to replace the traditional flu vaccination.

:15:43.:15:51.

Michael Bond, the creator of Paddington Bear, has died, aged 91.

:15:52.:15:54.

He died at his home on Tuesday following a short illness,

:15:55.:15:56.

a statement from his publisher HarperCollins said.

:15:57.:16:00.

Bond published his first book, A Bear Called Paddington, in 1958,

:16:01.:16:04.

and the story of the small, cuddly character went

:16:05.:16:07.

on to become a popular TV series, and was recently made into a film.

:16:08.:16:11.

David Sillito looks back on his life.

:16:12.:16:21.

It was just over 60 years ago, on Christmas Eve, that

:16:22.:16:24.

a young BBC cameraman, Michael Bond, saw a lonely toy

:16:25.:16:26.

bear sitting on a shelf in a department store.

:16:27.:16:35.

It inspired him to write A Bear Called Paddington, a polite,

:16:36.:16:39.

He has got a strong sense of right and wrong, and he is a very polite

:16:40.:16:44.

He was always a very polite man and Paddington has

:16:45.:16:52.

So the manners were from his father, but that opening scene,

:16:53.:17:01.

the meeting on the station platform, there was in it an echo

:17:02.:17:05.

of his childhood in the '30s when he saw Jewish child refugees

:17:06.:17:08.

But the world of Paddington was, despite all his many scrapes,

:17:09.:17:17.

a gentle place, rooted in the character of

:17:18.:17:20.

It really does feel very sad, particularly because the publishing

:17:21.:17:27.

party he always comes to is next week and he will be really missed.

:17:28.:17:34.

He is the most lovely person to chat to.

:17:35.:17:37.

I think it proves that children still do love those quiet books.

:17:38.:17:44.

He wrote the characters so beautifully.

:17:45.:17:48.

Sometimes Mr Onion lets him ring the school bell.

:17:49.:17:55.

Michael Bond also created The Herb Garden along

:17:56.:17:59.

with dozens of other books, but nothing came

:18:00.:18:01.

He guarded his friendly, furry creation closely and he had doubts

:18:02.:18:12.

about the recent film version, but when he saw that Paddington's

:18:13.:18:14.

essential decency was untouched, he even agreed to a little cameo

:18:15.:18:17.

performance, a little wave of welcome to his old friend.

:18:18.:18:29.

This is Outside Source, live from the BBC newsroom.

:18:30.:18:33.

Our lead story is: six are being charged in connection

:18:34.:18:35.

with the Hilllsborough disaster - 28 years after it happened.

:18:36.:18:38.

Four of those facing charges are former policemen.

:18:39.:18:51.

She's one of horse racing's best jockeys -

:18:52.:18:55.

she became a really big star after becoming the first woman

:18:56.:18:57.

to win the Melbourne Cup - that was in 2015.

:18:58.:19:00.

Well, she's tested positive for a banned substance.

:19:01.:19:06.

Let's bring in Sarah from the BBC Sports Centre. Tell us more about

:19:07.:19:15.

the circumstances. It is a banned substance called phentermine. It is

:19:16.:19:20.

an appetite suppressant to control her weight. Basically, about a year

:19:21.:19:26.

ago she had a very bad accident, and Des O'Keefe, who has been speaking

:19:27.:19:34.

to the BBC today, he is part of the Australia jockeys Association, he

:19:35.:19:38.

has been speaking to Michelle Payne today, and he says that she started

:19:39.:19:43.

to take weight suppression medication after that for 13 months

:19:44.:19:48.

ago. He said she was on one type of medication that was cleared. It

:19:49.:19:53.

wasn't working, so she tried another form, phentermine, but she didn't

:19:54.:19:57.

check it was on the banned substance list. She says herself, through Des

:19:58.:20:03.

O'Keeffe, that she is disappointed and embarrassed for this error of

:20:04.:20:08.

judgment. There is going to be a hearing, and enquiry, on Thursday,

:20:09.:20:15.

about five hours from now in Australia. She is set to admit

:20:16.:20:19.

breaching the guidelines. We think she will get a four Seb suspension.

:20:20.:20:29.

Back in 2014, she sets the racing world alight, and became the first

:20:30.:20:35.

woman to win the Melbourne cup. She is a very popular person, and her

:20:36.:20:39.

back story is fascinating, the struggles she has come through with

:20:40.:20:43.

her family and then through serious injuries. It's set to be made into a

:20:44.:20:48.

film. This is a bit of a blight on Michelle Payne's career so far, and

:20:49.:20:57.

we await that enquiry. Let's talk again tomorrow when we know what

:20:58.:20:59.

punishment she will receive from that.

:21:00.:21:00.

The Tour de France begins on Saturday.

:21:01.:21:02.

I feel as if I am exactly where I need to be. I've been very light on

:21:03.:21:18.

race days. I need to get more race rhythm. I like to think that that

:21:19.:21:22.

means I'm coming into the To a fresher than I've been before, and

:21:23.:21:29.

if numbers in training and the feelings on the bike or anything to

:21:30.:21:33.

go by, I'm ready for the next few weeks. So am I. Can't wait. Starts

:21:34.:21:36.

on Saturday. A player in Norway taking

:21:37.:21:38.

shirt-pulling to a whole new level. This was a match between

:21:39.:21:43.

Sandefjord and Tromso. The player looks like

:21:44.:21:45.

he's breaking clear - and all subtlety is

:21:46.:21:46.

dispensed with, as you see. Because the guy whose

:21:47.:21:49.

shirt was pulled got frustrated and kicked out,

:21:50.:21:51.

they both got booked. It was a yellow card. Most people

:21:52.:22:05.

watching it felt like the shirt... Look at that. Full commitment. You

:22:06.:22:09.

can find that clip on the BBC Sport app if you'd like to show it to

:22:10.:22:13.

someone else. Lots of sport available online from the BBC if

:22:14.:22:19.

you'd like to get it. I was mentioning this a few minutes ago.

:22:20.:22:22.

Next, a report frrom Tulip Mazumdar on an alternative to injections.

:22:23.:22:25.

It's called a micro-needle patch - and we're assured it's "painless".

:22:26.:22:28.

Let's face it. Few people enjoy injections. But vaccines

:22:29.:22:40.

administered in this way, such as the flu jab, help save millions of

:22:41.:22:44.

lives around the world. Now scientists in the US have carried

:22:45.:22:48.

out trials involving 100 people, whether flu vaccine is given like

:22:49.:22:54.

this instead. It may look like a plaster for a small cut, but zoom in

:22:55.:22:59.

and you will see 100 microscopic hairlike needles containing the flu

:23:00.:23:05.

virus. They penetrate the skin's surface and then dissolve.

:23:06.:23:19.

We have compared in our trial the micro-needle patch to a regular

:23:20.:23:27.

influenza a shot, and the patch did great in terms of introducing

:23:28.:23:32.

antibodies. Here in the UK you can get a flu jab easily by coming to

:23:33.:23:36.

your local pharmacy, and many choose not to, sometimes because they are

:23:37.:23:42.

afraid of needles. It can be a bigger challenge in developing

:23:43.:23:45.

countries, where it can be much more difficult to get vaccines to the

:23:46.:23:50.

people who need them. Influenza kills between a quarter and half a

:23:51.:23:56.

million of people every year. The young and the elderly, and pregnant

:23:57.:24:00.

women, are the most at risk. The vaccines often need to be kept cold

:24:01.:24:05.

and right up until the moment they are administered, which can be
