:00:00. > :00:09.Here on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.

:00:10. > :00:13.A search is underway of a loch south of Oban,

:00:14. > :00:16.after reports that a car carrying a family left the road

:00:17. > :00:19.The incident happened late this afternoon near the

:00:20. > :00:22.Steven Godden has been following the story -

:00:23. > :00:35.The details of this have been emerging throughout the evening. But

:00:36. > :00:41.we know is that the alarm was raised shortly after 4pm this afternoon.

:00:42. > :00:45.Emergency services started searching the loch following reports that he

:00:46. > :00:50.car had left the road and ended up in the water. Locals tell us that

:00:51. > :00:55.the conditions were misty and wet and this is a road that runs

:00:56. > :00:58.alongside the water. There is no official confirmation but it is

:00:59. > :01:03.understood that two people may have been trapped inside the car.

:01:04. > :01:08.Helicopters and water rescue teams have been involved and even

:01:09. > :01:10.correcting open remains close tonight.

:01:11. > :01:13.The First Minister has described the Iraq Inquiry report as damning,

:01:14. > :01:15.Sir John Chilcot's report raised questions about

:01:16. > :01:18.the necessity of the conflict, as well as the strength

:01:19. > :01:21.of the intelligence and legal advice with which it was justified.

:01:22. > :01:23.Our Westminster Correspondent David Porter has been

:01:24. > :01:37.A place to reflect and to contemplate. In the shadow of

:01:38. > :01:43.Westminster, this site will soon become a permanent memorial to those

:01:44. > :01:50.who died in the Iraq war. Nothing can compare to the loss of breed

:01:51. > :01:52.relative. Today an attempt to finally and to the myriad of

:01:53. > :01:57.questions. We have concluded that finally and to the myriad of

:01:58. > :02:05.the UK chose to join the invasion of Iraq before the peaceful options for

:02:06. > :02:15.disarmament had been exhausted. Military action at that time was not

:02:16. > :02:18.a last resort. 13 years on, Iraq still raises raw emotions. None more

:02:19. > :02:24.so than from the families of those who died. What we've heard and what

:02:25. > :02:29.would be reading is that it has been really hard. That's why there are a

:02:30. > :02:33.lots of mothers and fathers in tears today. We have held it back for

:02:34. > :02:40.weeks and it has been confirmed today it has been gut-wrenching. In

:02:41. > :02:45.the Commons, tough questions. Amid all the staff about improving

:02:46. > :02:49.processes which is fantastically important and I add knowledge it,

:02:50. > :02:54.but at the end of the day it is people that make decisions. In our

:02:55. > :02:59.social responsibility, wouldn't it help if individuals responsible were

:03:00. > :03:03.held accountable? He's right that the people who took those decisions

:03:04. > :03:07.could be held accountable in this house and in the court of public

:03:08. > :03:11.opinion. There are also accountable in terms of people who might want to

:03:12. > :03:14.opinion. There are also accountable take action as people have through

:03:15. > :03:18.because with respect to equipment failures and the rest of Iraq and

:03:19. > :03:22.Afghanistan. Clearly the Government of the day and the Prime Minister of

:03:23. > :03:27.the day have to account for themselves. the Tony Blair is

:03:28. > :03:35.doing that right now. He defended his actions. I did not mislead this

:03:36. > :03:37.country, I the decision in good faith on the information I had at

:03:38. > :03:42.the time. Into theirs and three plenty opposed military action. Iraq

:03:43. > :03:54.probably has no weapons of mass instruction. Charles Kennedy also

:03:55. > :04:04.set his face against military action. This is the riskiest moment

:04:05. > :04:12.for Britain. The support is an indication of Charles Kennedy and

:04:13. > :04:18.Robin Cook are resigned from Tony Blair's Cabinet because he did not

:04:19. > :04:21.agree. Neither of them are here. The initial war in Iraq was brief with

:04:22. > :04:29.overwhelming force being used against Saddam Hussein. Soon, like a

:04:30. > :04:33.statue, his regime was toppled. Winning the peace proved far more

:04:34. > :04:39.difficult and cost Scottish lives. Next week, MPs will get to days to

:04:40. > :04:51.debate the report. They say lessons must be learned.

:04:52. > :05:01.19 of those killed were from Scotland. They are the casualties of

:05:02. > :05:05.war. The 19 Scots who lost their lives in the Desert far from home,

:05:06. > :05:12.never knowing that the conflict would unwind so spectacularly. This

:05:13. > :05:18.Corporal watching over his mother Rose, one of the key campaigners. He

:05:19. > :05:23.was a six foot soldier killed by a roadside bomb. You as a gentle

:05:24. > :05:29.giant. He would help out her neighbours, carry their bags along

:05:30. > :05:36.the road. The neighbours loved him. For arose the fight for justice has

:05:37. > :05:43.to go on. It is something I have to do. Something driving me, I needed

:05:44. > :05:50.to push it. Something wasn't right. Of the dead, one in ten worst

:05:51. > :05:56.Scottish. The families were receiving the dreadful news they

:05:57. > :06:00.feared. This Corporal from Aberdeen were shot on routine patrol into

:06:01. > :06:04.theirs and sex. He did not want to go to Iraq. He joined the Army and

:06:05. > :06:18.knew he would have to go somewhere. He wanted a career. Tony Blair ended

:06:19. > :06:22.it very short. Much focus is on the dead. Many thousands more were

:06:23. > :06:28.injured, bearing the skies today, physical and mental. This man

:06:29. > :06:33.battled with depression and alcohol, a product or poster Matic stress

:06:34. > :06:38.disorder. You are sent over there to do a job and as a soldier you go and

:06:39. > :06:47.do the job. Many find out it was all a lie or not the full truth, that

:06:48. > :06:49.makes you angry. The equipment and kit is also criticise. This Lance

:06:50. > :06:58.Corporal was provided with the wrong uniform. What he is wearing here was

:06:59. > :07:03.not provided by the army, but by his wife in Falkirk. Within days, she

:07:04. > :07:10.found the get and sent it out to me. The military post found me behind

:07:11. > :07:14.some rock in Iraq and our member remarking at this time, she did do

:07:15. > :07:18.what the British Government and the British Army couldn't do and that

:07:19. > :07:24.was source kit and get it to me out in Iraq. Perhaps the most poignant

:07:25. > :07:31.reminder of the Iraq conflict is in Glenrothes. As a post-war new town

:07:32. > :07:38.it has no dead. After 2004, that changed. This Oriel is forever a

:07:39. > :07:40.reminder of those lives such as you go taking so far away.

:07:41. > :07:43.A mother and her civil partner have been jailed for life for the murder

:07:44. > :07:46.Rachel and Nyomi Fee were sentenced to a minimum

:07:47. > :07:53.of 23 and a half years, and 24 years, respectively.

:07:54. > :08:00.Behind Liam Fee's short life, a story

:08:01. > :08:07.As Rachel and Nyomi Fee were sentenced,

:08:08. > :08:10.the scale of violence against him from the people who loved him was

:08:11. > :08:22.That he had been subjected to a long cause of violent behaviour that

:08:23. > :08:24.caused him appalling suffering both physically and mentally.

:08:25. > :08:27.Neither woman showed any motion as the judge ordered them to

:08:28. > :08:31.serve 24 and 23 and a half years before they apply for parole.

:08:32. > :08:32.But outside, Liam's father was emotional.

:08:33. > :08:44.Rachel, on the left, and Nyomi Fee subjectively

:08:45. > :08:48.The blow that killed him, so severe it ruptured his heart.

:08:49. > :08:50.He spent the last few days of his life

:08:51. > :09:05.Instead of helping him, the couple searched on their

:09:06. > :09:07.They abused two the boys mentally and

:09:08. > :09:10.One they tried to blame for Liam's death.

:09:11. > :09:13.Gillian McCusker believed she was one of their closest

:09:14. > :09:17.They are still going to get everything paid for them, everything

:09:18. > :09:23.Whenever they come out, they will still have their own life to lead.

:09:24. > :09:26.And little Liam, where is he due macro nowhere.

:09:27. > :09:33.In the Fife community where Liam lived, reams of coloured ribbons

:09:34. > :09:49.There are still questions the social services who let him slip through

:09:50. > :09:56.the net. The council did not comment while the case is underway. From the

:09:57. > :10:00.start, they were in this together, but after sentencing the will be in

:10:01. > :10:01.separate presence. They will spend the next 20 years of their lives

:10:02. > :10:04.apart. Talks have broken up in a bid to end

:10:05. > :10:07.the ScotRail dispute, The RMT union met Abellio

:10:08. > :10:09.ScotRail management for an hour earlier,

:10:10. > :10:12.in the row over plans to change The RMT is planning further strike

:10:13. > :10:32.action, with a 48 hour stoppage A five-year-old girl has died after

:10:33. > :10:37.she was in a car crashed yesterday. She was in the back-seat of a

:10:38. > :10:43.Vauxhall with a three-year-old boy when it collided with a BMW. The boy

:10:44. > :10:44.was on injured, well the driver is any condition in hospital.

:10:45. > :10:46.Andy Murray is through to another Wimbledon semifinal.

:10:47. > :10:49.He won a gruelling five set match against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga

:10:50. > :11:02.I just tried to use all my energy at the beginning of the fifth set to

:11:03. > :11:05.get myself out and try and get the crowd pumped up. It had been a long

:11:06. > :11:07.get myself out and try and get the day for them with long matches. We

:11:08. > :11:08.got the early break and managed to hang onto it.

:11:09. > :11:12.Hearts put any fears of an early European exit to bed

:11:13. > :11:16.with a convincing 6-3 aggregate win over Infonet of Estonia.

:11:17. > :11:19.Well, It's over to Christopher Blanchett now with the weather

:11:20. > :11:33.Wet across many parts of the country tonight, turning quite breezy. It

:11:34. > :11:36.will be nailed the back mild. The weather will have cleared by

:11:37. > :11:42.tomorrow morning. Still affecting Shetland. But it drives start

:11:43. > :11:47.mostly. Temperatures in the early teens. Still some guy from the

:11:48. > :11:52.overnight rain. One or to light showers. The wins will be fresher

:11:53. > :11:57.here from the south-west. The weather for Shetland is likely to

:11:58. > :12:02.stay fairly wet and windy. Through the chorus of the day elsewhere it

:12:03. > :12:07.will be dry and bright with some sunshine. Not too bad at all.

:12:08. > :12:10.Similar conditions for Northern Ireland. Just south of the border

:12:18. > :12:24.rain. Temperatures in the low 20s. We will see temperatures into the

:12:25. > :12:30.low 20s as well here, but with some sunshine as well, too. The driest

:12:31. > :12:34.week for most. As we head through to the evening outbreaks of rain edging

:12:35. > :12:36.in towards the Hebrides and Arguelles and across the mainland as
