:00:00. > :00:07.Hello, it's Thursday, it's 9am, I'm Victoria Derbyshire -
:00:08. > :00:13.Europe's most wanted - police investigating the Brussels
:00:14. > :00:15.bombings search for the man in white.
:00:16. > :00:18.The Belgian authorities think he fled the city's airport
:00:19. > :00:20.after the two men who were with him blew themselves up during
:00:21. > :00:29.Officials in Brussels tell reporters that one of the suicide bombers
:00:30. > :00:31.who attacked the city's airport was involved in making

:00:39. > :00:44.I'm Jon Kay, reporting live from Brussels. A second national day of
:00:45. > :00:49.mourning here as people stop and reflect in this square. You also see
:00:50. > :00:50.them checking their mobile phones to check out the latest in the
:00:51. > :00:53.investigation. Plus here, a warning that hundreds
:00:54. > :00:56.of thousands of council houses and housing association homes
:00:57. > :01:04.could be lost forever. There were always about 20, 20 5% of
:01:05. > :01:10.the population who cannot afford to own their own home or rent on the
:01:11. > :01:14.market -- 25%. What are we going to do about those groups of people
:01:15. > :01:15.going into the future if we allow social housing to continue to
:01:16. > :01:24.decline? Grief, confusion and recriminations
:01:25. > :01:30.as police in Brussels investigating the airport and metro bombings
:01:31. > :01:34.which killed at least 31 people are hunting for a suspect,
:01:35. > :01:38.pictured wearing a white jacket on CCTV footage at the airport
:01:39. > :01:40.shortly before the attacks took It's thought he escaped
:01:41. > :01:45.after his two accomplices Unconfirmed reports suggest one
:01:46. > :01:52.of the suicide bombers was Najim Laachraoui,
:01:53. > :01:53.believed to have been involved in the planning of
:01:54. > :01:56.the Paris atrocities. Some more names and nationalities
:01:57. > :01:58.of the victims have Though only a handful have been
:01:59. > :02:05.formally identified, as the city enters a second day
:02:06. > :02:07.of national mourning. A focal point for tributes
:02:08. > :02:10.is still the Place de la Bourse where our reporter Jon
:02:11. > :02:22.Kay is this morning. What is the latest?
:02:23. > :02:24.Good morning, Victoria. It is interesting to mention the victims
:02:25. > :02:27.because there is a sense here in Brussels and across Belgium of
:02:28. > :02:32.keeping the victims at the forefront of this. We have seen the CCTV
:02:33. > :02:36.images of the suspect, the mugshots, the pictures from the airport and
:02:37. > :02:40.Metro, but I think what people here want to do is keep talking about
:02:41. > :02:45.those who lost their lives and that is why they are coming here,
:02:46. > :02:51.reflected in the front page of the papers. 331 innocence, a total of
:02:52. > :02:55.331 people believed to have lost their lives so far, though that is
:02:56. > :03:00.expected to rise, and the 300 injured, some of them critically. We
:03:01. > :03:04.are told to expect more deaths, the death toll to rise in the days
:03:05. > :03:09.ahead. You can see from the faces the range of ages, backgrounds and
:03:10. > :03:13.nationalities of those caught up in these attacks. But while the focus
:03:14. > :03:15.on those front pages may be on the victims, the focus for the
:03:16. > :03:31.authorities here is a manhunt, at least for one
:03:32. > :03:34.man, maybe for more. All kinds of confusion yesterday, arrests had
:03:35. > :03:36.been made, hadn't been made, looking for this person or that person. We
:03:37. > :03:38.will get the latest as it stands from Simon Jones.
:03:39. > :03:40.Solidarity, sympathy, defiance, fear.
:03:41. > :03:42.The candles and tributes grow as Belgium enters a second day
:03:43. > :03:45.The big question - where is this man?
:03:46. > :03:48.The hunt continues for the airpoprt attacker who fled the scene
:03:49. > :03:51.TRANSLATION: The suspect wearing a light-coloured coat and a hat
:03:52. > :03:55.He left a large bag and departed before the explosions.
:03:56. > :03:59.His bag contained the biggest explosive device.
:04:00. > :04:03.Two of the suicide bombers have been identified as brothers Brahim
:04:04. > :04:07.and Khalid el-Bakraoui, petty criminals known to the police.
:04:08. > :04:09.Brahim, in the middle, was one of the three attackers
:04:10. > :04:26.On the left may be Najim Laachraoui, the suspected bomb
:04:27. > :04:28.maker in the Paris attacks last November.
:04:29. > :04:30.He is linked to Salah Abdeslam, the one surviving Paris attacker
:04:31. > :04:41.The Bakraoui brothers have been linked to safe houses
:04:42. > :04:44.Paris clearly connected to events in Brussels.
:04:45. > :04:46.It has emerged that Brahim was deported from Turkey last year.
:04:47. > :04:50.Turkey says Belgium ignored warnings that he was dangerous.
:04:51. > :04:52.TRANSLATION: Despite our warning that this person was a foreign
:04:53. > :04:54.terrorist fighter, Belgian authorities could not find
:04:55. > :04:58.Belgium insists he had been identified as a common criminal,
:04:59. > :05:02.not a terrorism suspect, but questions are growing as to how
:05:03. > :05:08.the police and security services have handled the terror threat.
:05:09. > :05:11.Among the people confirmed dead, Leopold Hecht, a law
:05:12. > :05:16.student in Brussels, and Adelma Tapia Ruiz from Peru,
:05:17. > :05:20.mother of twin girls who survived the attack.
:05:21. > :05:22.Overnight, London landmarks were lit up in solidarity with Brussels.
:05:23. > :05:27.Today, EU interior and justice ministers will hold a crisis meeting
:05:28. > :05:29.to discuss their response to Belgium's worst
:05:30. > :05:46.48-hour is after those attacks, I have to say it feels rather more
:05:47. > :05:50.calm here today, busier as well. People, after staying away, staying
:05:51. > :05:55.at home yesterday, appear to be going to work, school, college, as
:05:56. > :05:58.they might normally, but this is a new normal, and every Metro station
:05:59. > :06:03.and bus station have intense security, we have seen the military
:06:04. > :06:06.the street in public spaces, the investigations, the manhunt
:06:07. > :06:07.continues, it is clearly a nervous, edgy here in Brussels.
:06:08. > :06:11.Thank you. Here, a former head of MI6,
:06:12. > :06:13.Sir Richard Dearlove, has questioned claims that leaving
:06:14. > :06:15.the EU would compromise security. But the Defence Secretary,
:06:16. > :06:18.Michael Fallon, said the recent terror attacks showed the need
:06:19. > :06:22.for more cooperation with the EU. Live to Westminster and our
:06:23. > :06:35.political guru Norman Smith. What has Sir Richard Dearlove said?
:06:36. > :06:40.We have become used to the Brexit campaigners warning about the risk
:06:41. > :06:45.to security from free movement in the EU, what is interesting about
:06:46. > :06:48.Sir Richard's criticism is he focuses on the calibre and quality
:06:49. > :06:53.of Brussels-based security organisations. So, for example, he
:06:54. > :07:00.says they are of little consequence, he says that you recall, the main EU
:07:01. > :07:03.law enforcement agency involves 28 nations of differing abilities in
:07:04. > :07:10.terms of their approach to intelligence -- Europol. And he
:07:11. > :07:16.raises questions about how secure they are, saying countries like
:07:17. > :07:19.Britain doesn't want to put their intelligence into a leaking
:07:20. > :07:23.organisation, and he said if we left it would make no difference to our
:07:24. > :07:27.close working relationship with the United States, and far better to
:07:28. > :07:31.have bilateral deals when it comes to intelligence. Against that we
:07:32. > :07:35.have heard this morning from another former spy chief, the former head of
:07:36. > :07:42.GCHQ, who said quite the opposite. His argument is that we are only
:07:43. > :07:45.going to be safe if the intelligence operations in Europe are up to
:07:46. > :07:52.scratch. How do we help them to be up to scratch? By cooperating with
:07:53. > :07:56.them. The danger if we pull out is that it deprives them of a lot of
:07:57. > :08:01.our intelligence, so we have two intelligence chiefs on either side
:08:02. > :08:05.of the debate in the EU referendum, and it matters because the issue of
:08:06. > :08:07.national security is becoming absolutely central to that
:08:08. > :08:09.referendum campaign. Thank you, Norman.
:08:10. > :08:12.And with with rest of the day's news, here's Annita in the BBC
:08:13. > :08:18.A UN war crimes tribunal is to return its verdict today
:08:19. > :08:20.in the case of the former Bosnian-Serb leader Radovan
:08:21. > :08:24.He's accused of genocide and crimes against humanity related to the war
:08:25. > :08:29.At least 100,000 people died in the conflict,
:08:30. > :08:32.before an American-brokered peace deal brought the fighting
:08:33. > :08:45.The verdict will be broadcast live on a big screen in Sarajevo this
:08:46. > :08:49.lunchtime and we will speak to our correspondent there later this hour.
:08:50. > :08:53.Police are appealing for information after two women were murdered
:08:54. > :08:57.The attacks took place in different locations yesterday evening.
:08:58. > :09:01.A 34-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder
:09:02. > :09:06.Australia says aircraft debris found off the coast of Mozambique
:09:07. > :09:10.is almost certainly from missing Malaysian Airlines plane MH370.
:09:11. > :09:12.Two parts of a plane were found separately by members
:09:13. > :09:15.of the public and were flown to Australia last month for analysis.
:09:16. > :09:23.Flight MH370 vanished in March 2014 with 238 people on board.
:09:24. > :09:26.The bodies of a man and a woman have been found by rescuers searching
:09:27. > :09:29.for two climbers who've been missing on Ben Nevis since February.
:09:30. > :09:33.Rachel Slater and Tim Newton, from Bradford, failed to return
:09:34. > :09:35.from an outing on the mountain and hazardous weather hampered
:09:36. > :09:40.Police Scotland said the families of the two climbers
:09:41. > :09:45.Victims of online fraud shouldn't be refunded by banks if they fail
:09:46. > :09:47.to protect themselves, according to Britain's most
:09:48. > :09:54.Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe said that the public were being rewarded
:09:55. > :09:57.for bad behaviour and should take more responsibility
:09:58. > :10:03.In 2014, the last full year for which figures are available,
:10:04. > :10:08.the cost of online fraud was ?479 million.
:10:09. > :10:11.Currently, banks and credit card companies automatically pay out
:10:12. > :10:19.unless they can prove that the victim was negligent.
:10:20. > :10:28.But the police say as many as eight out of ten phishing or malware
:10:29. > :10:31.attacks would be avoided if people didn't click on the link.
:10:32. > :10:33.Two senior officers are now suggesting it might be time
:10:34. > :10:35.for the public to take more responsibility.
:10:36. > :10:37.The Commissioner of the Met Police, Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe,
:10:38. > :10:40.is reported in the Times saying that automatic pay-outs reward bad
:10:41. > :10:44.Commander Chris Greany of the City of London Police,
:10:45. > :10:46.the national coordinator for economic crime, told the BBC
:10:47. > :10:49.that people should consider security in cyberspace as much of a routine
:10:50. > :10:51.as locking their front door when they go out.
:10:52. > :10:54.The police say this is not about blaming victims but trying
:10:55. > :10:59.to ensure fewer people become victims in the first place.
:11:00. > :11:02.But consumer groups argue that ending automatic compensation
:11:03. > :11:05.could not only delay pay-outs but also discourage banks
:11:06. > :11:11.from investing in online security themselves.

:11:36. > :11:48.That's a summary of the latest BBC News -
:11:49. > :11:54.Throughout the programme we'll keep you up to date with the latest
:11:55. > :11:58.Before 10am, we know affordable housing is a big issue for you,
:11:59. > :12:04.we're going to detail the big changes that are coming
:12:05. > :12:06.to council houses and housing association homes.
:12:07. > :12:08.If you live in a housing association property,
:12:09. > :12:11.do watch our film and tell us how the changes could affect you.
:12:12. > :12:15.You can get in touch using the hashtag #VictoriaLIVE.
:12:16. > :12:18.If you text, you will be charged at the standard network rate.
:12:19. > :12:20.And I always try and feed some of your contributions
:12:21. > :12:22.into our conversations throughout the morning.
:12:23. > :12:32.And massive change of heart from Novak Djokovic?
:12:33. > :12:37.It seems that way, we will start with the row going on over men and
:12:38. > :12:41.women's pay Intel is. The 11 time grand slam champion Novak Djokovic
:12:42. > :12:44.has apologised to a number of leading female players and has
:12:45. > :12:47.spoken to Andy Murray, who criticised the world than the one
:12:48. > :12:50.following comments he made on Sunday. Djokovic suggested male
:12:51. > :12:56.players should earn more as they generate more income. Now, though,
:12:57. > :13:01.he was -- he says he was referring to more pay across the board and is
:13:02. > :13:04.trying to explain himself. I was referring to the tournament and the
:13:05. > :13:09.wealth distributed to all the players, high ranked, lower ranks,
:13:10. > :13:17.female, male, young, old. I was talking in the name of all the
:13:18. > :13:21.players, I think that we deserve more of the wealth distribution that
:13:22. > :13:28.is generated on certain tournaments, that's what I am referring to. All
:13:29. > :13:32.genders? Yes, all genders. That is that put to bed, maybe not!
:13:33. > :13:36.England's cricketers were not good enough according to Captain Owen
:13:37. > :13:43.Morgan as they narrowly avoided embarrassment against Afghanistan.
:13:44. > :13:48.England slipped to 57-6 but big hitting from David Willey and Moeen
:13:49. > :13:53.Ali gave them a total of 142. Afghanistan were always behind in
:13:54. > :13:55.the run chase as England won by 15 runs and afterwards Morgan was
:13:56. > :14:02.understandably pleased with the contributions from Moeen Ali and
:14:03. > :14:05.David Willey. Where the rest of our batting struggle today, those guys
:14:06. > :14:13.should a great deal of application in the right manner, starting on to
:14:14. > :14:20.bigger wickets like these is difficult, you almost need mistakes
:14:21. > :14:25.before you actually click your brain into thinking, I have got plenty of
:14:26. > :14:28.time here, I have to get runs under my belt and establish the
:14:29. > :14:33.partnership. It is so different to the wickets we have played on.
:14:34. > :14:36.Emphasising that throughout the side is very important.
:14:37. > :14:40.Wales and Northern Ireland meet in a friendly at the Cardiff city Stadium
:14:41. > :14:45.tonight ahead of this summer's euros. Both teams have ended a long
:14:46. > :14:47.wait to reach a major competition but Wales will be without key
:14:48. > :14:52.players character bail and Aaron Ramsey.
:14:53. > :14:59.Looking forward to it, two important games for us, as it always is.
:15:00. > :15:05.Everybody says two friendly games, but never go into a game playing for
:15:06. > :15:11.Wales thinking it didn't matter. It is a big one for us. We are going to
:15:12. > :15:15.play against some teams with exceptional individual players,
:15:16. > :15:19.which obviously I was bail is. Aaron Ramsey comes into that category as
:15:20. > :15:23.well, and that is note disrespect to the rest of the Wales squad, who are
:15:24. > :15:26.good international players. From that point of view it would have
:15:27. > :15:32.been good for our preparation to have to deal with that, but equally
:15:33. > :15:37.the fact they are not playing sets us a different challenge. Scotland
:15:38. > :15:39.also in action tonight, playing a friendly in the Czech Republic. That
:15:40. > :15:44.is all for now. A British woman filmed sheltering
:15:45. > :15:46.with her family in the aftermath of the Brussels airport attack says
:15:47. > :15:49.she'd been reading just the day before, what to do in the event
:15:50. > :15:54.of a terrorist attack. Pauline Graystone, who has lived
:15:55. > :15:57.in Belgium for 20 years, was checking in at Brussels
:15:58. > :16:00.International Airport She was with her
:16:01. > :16:05.daughter and husband. The images of her on the floor
:16:06. > :16:07.of the departure hall, amid the chaos of the attack,
:16:08. > :16:23.have been seen around the world. The luggage was on the conveyor
:16:24. > :16:27.belt. We'd just been checked in. At that moment there was a loud bang, a
:16:28. > :16:32.crack. We all turned round and I said "what's that? ". It wasn't
:16:33. > :16:36.obvious to me that it was a bomb. My husband thought it was. We
:16:37. > :16:39.immediately dropped to the floor and we were basically there I don't know
:16:40. > :16:46.how long. Probably a few seconds, maybe longer. Then suddenly there
:16:47. > :16:49.was an even louder bang in front of us behind the check-in and this was
:16:50. > :16:57.clearly a bomb because you could feel the heat and see the light, you
:16:58. > :17:01.could smell the burning and lots of the ceiling fell down. This is when
:17:02. > :17:04.it got very scary, it was like, this is it. You hear about these things
:17:05. > :17:09.on the news, of course it's never going to be you is it, then suddenly
:17:10. > :17:13.you think this is it and of course we'd heard two bombs, it was clear.
:17:14. > :17:23.Yes, I was just thinking, there's going to be another one, another
:17:24. > :17:27.one. So it was numb terror, I guess. The first blast was behind us. By
:17:28. > :17:32.the time I looked, the second had already detonated. I just saw the
:17:33. > :17:36.blow, the aftermath. I crouched to the floor and remember just staying
:17:37. > :17:39.there which seemed for a very long time but I don't think it was that
:17:40. > :17:45.long. I remember hearing my mum telling me it was going to be OK and
:17:46. > :17:56.that just to wait and make myself small so that's what I did. Did you
:17:57. > :18:03.feel it was going to be OK? I did but no at the same time. I watch a
:18:04. > :18:08.lot of cop things. It gives you a surreal image that maybe you could
:18:09. > :18:11.die but it was fine. You were with your husband and daughter, did you
:18:12. > :18:17.keep them close to you? Yes, clung on! I just grabbed both of them. I
:18:18. > :18:24.mean, I just wanted us all to be as small as possible, so we were like
:18:25. > :18:29.one group very close together. I just kept thinking, be as small as
:18:30. > :18:33.you can, so we kept very tightly together.
:18:34. > :18:36.That was Pauline Graystone and her daughter talking to Katya
:18:37. > :18:40.Two days on from the attack, what's the atmosphere
:18:41. > :18:44.As politicians and the media have variously placed blame
:18:45. > :18:46.on the Government, the security services and disconnected
:18:47. > :18:49.communities in Belgium, we can speak now to three Muslim
:18:50. > :18:55.Nadia Fadil, a university lecturer, Hajib Hajaji, an anti-islamophobia
:18:56. > :18:57.activist and Taouwfik Amzil, an entrepreneur who helps young
:18:58. > :19:08.Welcome to the programme. Thank you for joining us. Nadia, how would you
:19:09. > :19:13.describe the last couple of days? Right after the attacks, there has
:19:14. > :19:19.been a quite impressive amount of solidarity. I think many people have
:19:20. > :19:26.also showed that they were quite shocked also about the attacks.
:19:27. > :19:30.There have been several weeks that it's been -- several wakes organised
:19:31. > :19:36.by the communities in the city. I was surprised by the general
:19:37. > :19:50.expressions of solidarities. Hajib, what would you say? Can you hear me?
:19:51. > :19:59.Yes. Thoughts and prayers firstly for the victims to close friends and
:20:00. > :20:03.family. We were shocked. As a human rights organisation, we have a right
:20:04. > :20:06.to live in a peaceful country. We are astonished about this attack.
:20:07. > :20:15.It's a global attack in all of Europe and now in Brussels. Some
:20:16. > :20:23.people were wounded and some people died. This is the minority of the
:20:24. > :20:27.Muslims. This is an attack of some groups, minority groups, and they
:20:28. > :20:37.promote fire and we need to come bat them. -- come back at them.
:20:38. > :20:47.How do you come back at them? Can you hear me? Yes, do go ahead? We
:20:48. > :20:51.are now at a Crossroads. First, we need to make sure that people have a
:20:52. > :20:55.feeling of security and living in a safe place. We then need to get to
:20:56. > :20:59.the root cause which is, we are living in front of home-grown

:21:06. > :21:09.social exclusion to pelty crime to radicalisation. Most important here
:21:10. > :21:15.is not to put the blame on the entire community. The community, the
:21:16. > :21:20.Muslim community, has suffered and is suffering still now from all
:21:21. > :21:32.these attacks. But on the other hand, we need to start a very
:21:33. > :21:45.critical dialogue to make sure that the measures are set. We need to
:21:46. > :21:51.have far more positive IDs and policies to take place and it means
:21:52. > :21:57.simply making sure that all people here in Belgium or even in Europe
:21:58. > :22:02.have the sense and feeling that they have access. We need to cut the risk
:22:03. > :22:06.of radicalisation. If we don't do that in the mid or long-term, we'll
:22:07. > :22:11.just have more and more attacks and this is exactly what Isis is looking
:22:12. > :22:18.for, to divide people and make sure that racism, generalisation and
:22:19. > :22:26.Islamophobia is increasing and then putting the word out for more
:22:27. > :22:30.recruitment. Nadia, on that point about generalisations, a British man
:22:31. > :22:34.here described on Twitter the fact that he went up to a Muslim woman in
:22:35. > :22:38.Croydon just outside London and confronted her, these are his words,
:22:39. > :22:43.he posted this on Twitter "I confronted a Muslim woman today,
:22:44. > :22:52.asked her to explain Brussels". She said "nothing to do with me," it was
:22:53. > :22:57.a male write mouthed reply. Has there been anything like that in
:22:58. > :23:02.Belgium? A few politicians have expressed the desire to hear Muslims
:23:03. > :23:04.more ex-mes sitly condemning the attacks which is actually quite
:23:05. > :23:09.remarkable because all the organisations, as far as I've been
:23:10. > :23:13.able to follow, have come out with public declarations condemning the
:23:14. > :23:20.attacks, so yes, I think the more problematic facet is that there is a
:23:21. > :23:23.tendency to somehow connect, draw these connections between the
:23:24. > :23:27.multicultural society that is considered by several opinion-makers
:23:28. > :23:31.and leaders and in Britain you have also witnessed the same tendencies
:23:32. > :23:35.to declare multiculturalism as a field experiment. That's one part of
:23:36. > :23:39.the story. The other part of the story is to understand the attacks
:23:40. > :23:45.themselves and the nature of the attacks and also that's been already
:23:46. > :23:49.suggested by Tawfiq in his explanation. It's important to
:23:50. > :23:54.understand the attacks in a context of global warfare and further
:23:55. > :23:58.explanation of the attacks. There is an indirect connection between these
:23:59. > :24:05.two in the sense that if you alienate a big segment of your
:24:06. > :24:09.population and don't offer any ways to choose to have a productive
:24:10. > :24:13.manner, there might be a tiny fraction of the communities that
:24:14. > :24:16.could resort to arms. But if we want to understand the attacks, it's
:24:17. > :24:21.important to situate them in the global War on Terror context in
:24:22. > :24:25.which we have been living for 15 years now and that has, through the
:24:26. > :24:28.implication of a number of young people who've left because they were
:24:29. > :24:33.fed up with Europe basically, who've left to join the fight and the
:24:34. > :24:38.battle in Syria, who have come back in order to take Europe as a
:24:39. > :24:43.military target in the global warfare.
:24:44. > :24:46.You work a lot with young Muslims in Brussels, how would you describe the
:24:47. > :24:50.relationship between the local communities that you go into and the
:24:51. > :24:55.authorities, and I'm talking obviously about the Government, the
:24:56. > :25:03.police, Intelligence Services and so on? The most important here is that
:25:04. > :25:08.we are creating bridges between local communities, youngsters and
:25:09. > :25:13.the authorities and also other institutions. Why - because you know
:25:14. > :25:20.it's a democratic situation in Brussels. We have a very big
:25:21. > :25:25.important Muslim community in Brussels, art of the Institute of
:25:26. > :25:30.Brussels. Those people, those youngsters are the future electors,
:25:31. > :25:34.workers and tenants for Brussels and this is actually the message we are
:25:35. > :25:38.passing to the Government, which is don't ignore this, it's an important
:25:39. > :25:41.part of the population because you will need them at certain points,
:25:42. > :25:49.they'll become the Brussels guys for tomorrow. So we need to make sure
:25:50. > :25:54.that everybody has the feeling that he's part of the society which is
:25:55. > :25:59.not really the case. We have very strong statements from youngsters
:26:00. > :26:05.saying that there is nothing to live here in Belgium so maybe it's better
:26:06. > :26:09.to go to Syria and die. This is very strong statements from youngsters
:26:10. > :26:13.who've been born and raised and grown in Brussels, saying this. So
:26:14. > :26:19.it shows that our social fabric is very weak. Today, more than ever, we
:26:20. > :26:28.need to make sure that what happens in Paris, Istanbul and now in
:26:29. > :26:36.Brussels, should not be happening. For that, at the government level or
:26:37. > :26:41.at the social society level, it has to take the investing in money to
:26:42. > :26:43.ensure it doesn't happen again, otherwise it's another war again.
:26:44. > :26:57.Many families in Belgium desperately wait for news of loved ones, and the
:26:58. > :27:00.majority of the people are trying to continue with daily life. Jon Kay
:27:01. > :27:01.has been finding out how they are coping in the aftermath of the
:27:02. > :27:13.attacks. Imagine facing this on your way to
:27:14. > :27:24.work. Commuters wait to get inside the station. Checked one by one. In
:27:25. > :27:28.the light of the attacks, we found few complaints. It's awful but we
:27:29. > :27:33.have to do it. We are glad we have some controls, yes. We have to do
:27:34. > :27:38.it. My grandson is born last night and I want to go to the hospital to
:27:39. > :27:43.see him and I haven't had a chance and I think that the doors will be
:27:44. > :27:47.closed until I'm home tonight. So how do you feel about the
:27:48. > :27:52.security and waiting in your situation? Well, I can understand.
:27:53. > :27:56.You can understand? Yes, security above everything. These weren't just
:27:57. > :28:01.attacks on the capital of Belgium, but on Brussels as the home of the
:28:02. > :28:06.European Union. The impact is only too clear.
:28:07. > :28:10.During the working week, this area would normally be buzzing with
:28:11. > :28:13.politicians and officials and journalists shuttling between all
:28:14. > :28:17.the different EU buildings, but look, it's empty, the roads are
:28:18. > :28:22.empty, the offices are pretty much empty and I can show you why. Just
:28:23. > :28:26.down the hill there, by the barrier, that's the Metro station that was
:28:27. > :28:30.attacked on Tuesday morning. It's not fun and I don't think it's
:28:31. > :28:34.fun to live in any big city in Europe right now. Maria hasn't been
:28:35. > :28:38.able to do her job as an interpreter since the attacks and her children
:28:39. > :28:43.haven't been to school. But like so many here, she remains calm. How are
:28:44. > :28:47.your kids, how are they doing? We are fine, we are fine, we told them
:28:48. > :28:52.there are some mean guys there, but the world is not all mean and we
:28:53. > :28:55.have to be careful, so I think you have to be honest with your kids and
:28:56. > :29:00.stuff. But while some in Belgium are able
:29:01. > :29:04.to continue with their plans, others are struggling to deal with this new
:29:05. > :29:14.normal. People like Isabella. The atmosphere
:29:15. > :29:19.is very nervous. It's very dangerous and I really, really, really scared.
:29:20. > :29:22.You are scared? Yeah, I'm scared. These women have come up with a
:29:23. > :29:28.novel approach in the fight against terror. Lifting people's spirits
:29:29. > :29:32.with helium-filled balloons. We think that if you hold this balloon
:29:33. > :29:39.it will give to people like some idea of peace and love. And a smile?
:29:40. > :29:43.Yes. We hope so! Yes, that's what we need for the
:29:44. > :29:50.moment isn't it. Everyone here has their own way of

:47:36. > :47:39.Tribunal in The Hague. First indicted for war crimes
:47:40. > :47:44.by the United Nations 21 years ago, he faces 11 charges of genocide,
:47:45. > :47:49.crimes against humanity and breaches of the Geneva Convention
:47:50. > :47:54.for his role in the Bosnian War, including the Srebrenica massacre
:47:55. > :47:59.in 1995 where Bosnian Serb forces killed more than 8,000
:48:00. > :48:02.Bosnian Muslims who were meant to be During his five year trial
:48:03. > :48:08.where he defended himself, Mr Karadzic said he has a clear
:48:09. > :48:12.conscience and there was 'no shred The civil war in
:48:13. > :48:21.Bosnia was horrific. The world watched in horror
:48:22. > :48:25.in the way the world is watching the civil war in
:48:26. > :48:27.Syria now in horror. The charges against Karadzic
:48:28. > :48:31.by the International War Crimes Tribunal, well, there are 11
:48:32. > :48:35.counts, specifically that he was the political
:48:36. > :48:38.mastermind behind the massacre That was the worst massacre
:48:39. > :48:51.in Europe since the Second World Thousands of unarmed Muslim men
:48:52. > :49:03.and boys in Bosnia were massacred. He is also accused of masterminding
:49:04. > :49:06.ethnic cleansing, when hundreds of thousand of people were just
:49:07. > :49:10.driven from their homes in Bosnia. And also the siege of Sarajevo,
:49:11. > :49:12.the capital of Bosnia. There was sniper fire,
:49:13. > :49:18.there was mortar fire, Well, the wheels of justice
:49:19. > :49:23.on Karadzic have moved really The hearing against him
:49:24. > :49:29.began way back in 2008 It was very bizarre when they did
:49:30. > :49:39.find him because he was hiding He had grown a huge,
:49:40. > :49:47.bushy beard, he had big, thick-rimmed spectacles,
:49:48. > :49:49.and he was a New Age healer with an assumed name,
:49:50. > :49:53.a false identity. He was carrying out lectures
:49:54. > :49:56.in alternative medicine. He even had a website
:49:57. > :50:01.offering advice to people I did actually catch up with him
:50:02. > :50:06.just before he went on the run. And are you guilty
:50:07. > :50:08.of war crimes? I am President and I make my
:50:09. > :50:14.decisions and give my orders that are all known in public and we have
:50:15. > :50:20.never issued any wrong order. I think campaigners
:50:21. > :50:24.for international justice think it is really important to put
:50:25. > :50:28.on trial people who are accused of war crimes in however
:50:29. > :50:32.many years it takes. And it has taken a number
:50:33. > :50:35.of years with Karadzic, both to capture him
:50:36. > :50:41.and put him on trial. They would say, the International
:50:42. > :50:49.War Crimes Tribunal, that partly it is a deterrent
:50:50. > :50:52.to stop other despots and dictators in the future carrying out terrible
:50:53. > :50:55.atrocities and war Other people will say actually quite
:50:56. > :50:59.a lot of people have been prosecuted and convicted at the war
:51:00. > :51:02.crimes tribunal and there are still terrible atrocities going
:51:03. > :51:05.on even now in places like Syria. Bob Donia gave evidence
:51:06. > :51:11.during the trial as an expert witness, and was cross-examined
:51:12. > :51:25.by Radovan Karadzic himself. Let's talk to Bob now. How would you
:51:26. > :51:40.describe describe Radovan car joining? As a cross-examiner, he was
:51:41. > :51:43.methodical, Aggressive and determined to get the answers he
:51:44. > :51:48.wanted from me and other witnesses for that matter. I walked away
:51:49. > :51:55.feeling that his most distinguishing trait was that he had enormous
:51:56. > :52:02.powers of persuasion and a wide repertoire of strategies he'd use to
:52:03. > :52:10.persuade people. The other thing that characterised him was a great
:52:11. > :52:14.ability to change moods and approaches seamlessly depending on
:52:15. > :52:21.what the situation called for. He could be calm and even charming and
:52:22. > :52:27.cooperative and inviting and then 30 second on the later he would show a
:52:28. > :52:31.burst of anger if an effort to get what he wanted from me, the
:52:32. > :52:37.respondent. What specifically were you giving evidence about, Mr Donia?
:52:38. > :52:45.I was an historical expert witness, so my task was to provide the judges
:52:46. > :52:53.with a background of the events prior to and around the time of the
:52:54. > :53:07.deeds alleged in the indictment. I did that and then learnt that in the
:53:08. > :53:11.cross-examination, that Karadzic relied on the perpetual persecution
:53:12. > :53:21.of the Serb people and of himself. So much of our exchanges centred on
:53:22. > :53:25.the history of the Serb people and of Bosnia in the several years prior
:53:26. > :53:30.to the time the war broke out. He was tried for leading the
:53:31. > :53:36.slaughter of thousands of Bosnia Muslims and Croats. What with was
:53:37. > :53:44.his defence? Well, he first of all is, was and remains in deep Dee Nile
:53:45. > :53:57.about the -- denial about the deeds that he touched off or set in
:53:58. > :54:01.motion. He totally denied responsibility for anything. The
:54:02. > :54:05.other part of his defence was that the Serb people did nothing wrong.
:54:06. > :54:11.There were crimes committed but they were committed by elements that were
:54:12. > :54:17.rogue elements or paramilitaries which were not legitimately a part
:54:18. > :54:20.of the Serb people. How significant could today's
:54:21. > :54:31.judgment be and what are you expecting? I think it's going to be
:54:32. > :54:36.a landmark event. Not only in the history of the trials of alleged war
:54:37. > :54:44.criminals at The Hague, but also in the history of the tribunal which
:54:45. > :54:49.has been plagued for the last several years with rather
:54:50. > :54:52.inconsistent judgments and certain amounts of internal disagreement
:54:53. > :54:57.among the judges. I think it's a very important decision, both to
:54:58. > :55:04.secure the legacy of the tribunal and to show that these crimes can't
:55:05. > :55:12.be committed with impunity any more. I think it's fair to expect that he
:55:13. > :55:16.will be convicted on at least some of the charges, apart from genocide,
:55:17. > :55:25.that is the crimes against humanity and violation of the laws in customs
:55:26. > :55:30.of war. The yen side charges, it's very difficult to predict or foresee
:55:31. > :55:35.what the judges will do -- the genocide charges. The charges
:55:36. > :55:41.pertaining to Srebrenica have been litigated before in other cases and
:55:42. > :55:46.other persons have been found guilty of actually committing genocide or
:55:47. > :55:51.aiding and abetting genocide. So there's certainly reason to believe
:55:52. > :56:02.that Karadzic will also be convicted on that count. Sorry, do finish your
:56:03. > :56:09.sentence. On the other hand, the charge of genocide in 1992 is going
:56:10. > :56:14.to be a very difficult one for the prosecutors to prevail on. That has
:56:15. > :56:19.also been litigated on before but without success in some other cases.
:56:20. > :56:21.Thank you very much for your time today, Bob Donia, who gave evidence
:56:22. > :56:26.at the trial of Radovan Karadzic. Now let's talk with Guy Delauney
:56:27. > :56:29.in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia, for us this morning where
:56:30. > :56:40.the verdict will be shown Guy, firstly is it still the plan to
:56:41. > :56:45.have the verdict live this lunch time? We are not having a screen
:56:46. > :56:50.here, the weather put paid to that, but people will be keenly following
:56:51. > :56:55.events. I've been speaking to all sorts of people about what they are
:56:56. > :56:58.going to do. You can see this green monument, a monument to the children
:56:59. > :57:04.killed during the siege of Sarajevo. There were more than 500 names
:57:05. > :57:08.inscribed on that monument. In fact, an estimated 1600 children were
:57:09. > :57:12.killed during the siege of Sarajevo and that's one of the key charges
:57:13. > :57:17.against Radovan Karadzic that he knowingly ordered those under his
:57:18. > :57:20.command to shell and snipe civilians in Sarajevo during the four-year
:57:21. > :57:26.siege of this city. Down there yesterday, I spoke to a man who'd
:57:27. > :57:31.lost his 13-year-old son to a hand grenade attack in 1992. He described
:57:32. > :57:35.Radovan Karadzic as the worst man in the Balkans and said he and other
:57:36. > :57:38.parents who'd lost children would be planning to waffle together today in
:57:39. > :57:44.an association that they have. They would be watching the verdict today
:57:45. > :57:49.very keenly -- planning to watch together. He said he could never
:57:50. > :57:54.forgive what had happened but wanted Bosnia to move on. Thank you very
:57:55. > :57:58.much. Still to come, Adam Johnson will be sentenced this morning after
:57:59. > :58:02.being found guilty of sexual activity with a 15-year-old
:58:03. > :58:05.schoolgirl. The NSPCC are calling for the Football Association to do
:58:06. > :58:12.more to protect children. We'll talk to them in the next hour. Time for
:58:13. > :58:16.the latest weather now with Carol. Good morning. This weekend we have
:58:17. > :58:20.got a bit of everything. Stronger winds, spells of rain and also some
:58:21. > :58:24.sunshine. We have started off on a dry and bright note across central
:58:25. > :58:27.and eastern areas. Rain and gusty winds already in the north and west
:58:28. > :58:32.will continue to push south through the course of the day, eventually
:58:33. > :58:37.getting into the far south-east and east later. Brighter skies, sunshine
:58:38. > :58:40.and showers will be the case this afternoon across Northern Ireland.
:58:41. > :58:46.Temperatures roughly where they should be at this stage in navrmt
:58:47. > :58:53.for Scotland, a similar story -- for stage in March. Sunny spells and
:58:54. > :59:02.showers in Scotland. The showers continuing behind the band of rain
:59:03. > :59:06.down towards the Peak District. Parts of Kent staying dry until
:59:07. > :59:11.later, but the rain is coming your way. Across the south, we are back
:59:12. > :59:15.under that rain and, despite the temperatures, it will feel chillier
:59:16. > :59:20.if you are stuck under it. The same in Wales, the rain becomes ensconced
:59:21. > :59:23.into the afternoon and early part of the the evening. Through the
:59:24. > :59:30.overnight period, fronts bringing this rain will continue to edge off
:59:31. > :59:35.into the near continent. Just the back edge of the rain clinging on.
:59:36. > :59:38.The temperatures will drop tomorrow. Where the cloud breaks in the north,
:59:39. > :59:43.we could see pockets of frost. Then we lose the rain, which clears off
:59:44. > :59:47.to the near continent completely. High pressure leaving us with a
:59:48. > :59:51.settled day and lengthy sunny spells. The wind will strengthen,
:59:52. > :59:54.the cloud will build and that's ahead of the next weather front
:59:55. > :59:58.coming our way. That front during the course of Saturday will be
:59:59. > :00:00.moving from the west to the east, again accompanied by windy
:00:01. > :00:02.conditions and we'll be looking at coastal gales as well. By the time
:00:03. > :01:22.we get properties, and when there is one,
:01:23. > :01:25.there were nearly 100 people going for it.

:05:11. > :05:13.as both gear up for a long awaited appearance at a major tournament
:05:14. > :05:15.at the Euros this summer. Wales have plenty of injuries
:05:16. > :05:18.with key players Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey missing
:05:19. > :05:20.out this evening. We can go live to the Cardiff City
:05:21. > :05:34.Stadium and say good morning Good morning. Tonight is a chance
:05:35. > :05:38.for two history making teams to test each other, both having waited
:05:39. > :05:42.decades the tournament football. For Wales, 58 years of pain and waiting,
:05:43. > :05:48.just two months to go now. Getting to that tournament was no small
:05:49. > :05:51.measure down to the talents of Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey, both
:05:52. > :05:55.missing tonight, but Chris Coleman said it is an opportunity to show
:05:56. > :05:59.they are more than a one or two man team, that they have other key
:06:00. > :06:04.players who have got them over the line, so expect a slightly different
:06:05. > :06:07.line-up, maybe younger talent coming through, possibly some young players
:06:08. > :06:11.getting their chance to stake a claim for a place in that squad that
:06:12. > :06:21.will fly to France in June. According to Chris Coleman, it might
:06:22. > :06:24.be a friendly but it will be feisty, he wants his team to show they have
:06:25. > :06:26.a bit of metal without the big-name players, he says they should take
:06:27. > :06:28.pride in every appearance they make for Wales.
:06:29. > :06:31.I'm looking forward to it, two important games for us, as it always
:06:32. > :06:36.is. I know everybody says two friendly games, but I have never
:06:37. > :06:39.gone into a game playing for Wales thinking that it didn't matter,
:06:40. > :06:46.neither do the players. So it is a big one for us. What

:07:44. > :07:46.international players. It would have been good for our preparation to
:07:47. > :07:52.have to deal with that, but equally the fact they are not playing sets
:07:53. > :07:56.us a different challenge. So we are told tonight it will be
:07:57. > :08:00.more feisty than friendly, lots of players battling to prove a point
:08:01. > :08:01.that they are worthy of a place when the European Championships, round in
:08:02. > :08:04.June. Scotland are also in action tonight,

:08:08. > :08:10.for now Victoria. I'll have the latest headlines
:08:11. > :08:13.for you at 10.30pm. Police in Brussels investigating
:08:14. > :08:22.the airport and metro bombings which killed at least 31 people
:08:23. > :08:24.are hunting for a suspect, pictured wearing a white jacket
:08:25. > :08:27.on CCTV footage at the airport shortly before the attacks took
:08:28. > :08:28.place. It's thought he escaped
:08:29. > :08:31.after his two accomplices Unconfirmed reports suggest one
:08:32. > :08:36.of the suicide bombers was Najim Laachraoui,
:08:37. > :08:38.believed to have been involved in the planning of
:08:39. > :08:41.the Paris atrocities. Some more names and nationalities
:08:42. > :08:43.of the victims have though only a handful have been
:08:44. > :08:49.formally identified, as the city enters a second day
:08:50. > :08:52.of national mourning. A focal point for tributes
:08:53. > :08:55.is still the Place de la Bourse where our reporter Ben Brown
:08:56. > :09:09.is for us this morning What is the latest from their? I
:09:10. > :09:12.will bring you the latest we have coming in at that Salah Abdeslam,
:09:13. > :09:17.the 20 the Gibraltan was arrested last Friday, a key suspect who has
:09:18. > :09:21.been here in Brussels but who was wanted after the Paras attacks --
:09:22. > :09:25.the 26-year-old man. He was thought to have escaped after the Paras
:09:26. > :09:28.attacks from France into Belgian comedy was finally arrested after
:09:29. > :09:32.four months on the run last Friday, lots of links between him and the
:09:33. > :09:45.Paras attack of and also the Brussels
:09:46. > :09:48.attackers here, it is thought after he was arrested the other attackers
:09:49. > :09:51.may have brought forward the bombings that we saw at the airport
:09:52. > :09:54.and at the Metro. He has now said through his lawyer he does not want
:09:55. > :09:56.to be extradited to France, he was originally fighting extradition, he
:09:57. > :09:59.now says he wants to go to France as quickly as possible, he says, in
:10:00. > :10:01.order to explain himself in front, and he has said he did not know
:10:02. > :10:04.anything about the attacks that were carried out here in Brussels. The
:10:05. > :10:07.prosecution will probably take that with a pinch of salt and say that he
:10:08. > :10:09.would say that, wouldn't he, but that is the latest on Salah
:10:10. > :10:13.Abdeslam. The latest here, we're in customer
:10:14. > :10:19.balls, which has become a focal point for the grief and mourning
:10:20. > :10:26.here and you can see a makeshift shrine -- Place de la Bourse. People
:10:27. > :10:31.have been coming here to lay flowers, light candles. I will show
:10:32. > :10:34.you a bit more, there is another bigger shrine over here. This is
:10:35. > :10:40.where, through the day, people come and they want to express their
:10:41. > :10:44.sadness and their grief, and their feelings of horror, really, at what
:10:45. > :10:51.has happened here in this city. You can see some of the messages that
:10:52. > :10:56.have been laid out, peace, messages like, I am Brussels, an echo of eye
:10:57. > :11:05.and Paris and I and Charlie, after the attacks that we saw in Paris --
:11:06. > :11:09.I am Paris, I am Charlie. We can talk to Rhiannon, a student
:11:10. > :11:13.from Aberystwyth, you are living here in Belgium at the moment? Why
:11:14. > :11:25.have you come here to plaster the borders? -- Plas de la Bella was.
:11:26. > :11:28.Hearing the news, filling the secluded, it felt surreal and I came
:11:29. > :11:32.a duty to come here and pay my respects. Being here in Belgium, do
:11:33. > :11:38.you feel that there could be more attacks? I certainly think it is a
:11:39. > :11:42.possibility, but it is hard to tell, it could happen anywhere, so it is
:11:43. > :11:47.unlikely to happen in the same place twice, so really it is impossible to
:11:48. > :11:50.know. A lot of people were predicting there could be attacks in
:11:51. > :11:55.Brussels after the Paras attacks, were you almost expecting something
:11:56. > :11:58.like this to happen? Definitely, we were expecting something in November
:11:59. > :12:06.but nothing happens when you expect it to, so it has been over our heads
:12:07. > :12:12.this entire time. I just hope that the worst is over. What are your
:12:13. > :12:15.feelings after these attacks? You wanted to come here to pay your
:12:16. > :12:23.respects to the dead and remember the dead? Yes, I think it is so
:12:24. > :12:26.horrific, I feel so upset by it and so shocked, really. You can see
:12:27. > :12:31.these things on the news but you never expected to happen so close to
:12:32. > :12:36.you, and so I certainly felt a duty to come here. But you are still
:12:37. > :12:41.going to stay living in Belgium for the time being, you don't want to go
:12:42. > :12:45.back to Britain for now? I don't think it is necessary to change a
:12:46. > :12:50.big thing because of this, because then you have let them win. I want
:12:51. > :12:58.to finish my university course here, and then move home. Good to talk to
:12:59. > :13:01.you, Rhiannon, thank you so much. Let me just tell you about the
:13:02. > :13:06.latest we have on the casualty figures from the health ministry
:13:07. > :13:10.here, 31 dead is the death toll, they are saying 300 were injured in
:13:11. > :13:14.the bombings at the airport and the Metro, a huge number of casualties
:13:15. > :13:18.taken to hospitals, a lot of them suffering from burns and shrapnel
:13:19. > :13:22.injuries, too. We hear from the health ministry that they are almost
:13:23. > :13:37.injuries that you would see on a battlefield,
:13:38. > :13:41.some 60 of the injured are in intensive care, some are in a coma,
:13:42. > :13:43.they have not been identified. At the moment, the authorities having
:13:44. > :13:46.trouble identifying all of the casualties, which is making things
:13:47. > :13:47.even harder for the relatives of loved ones who are missing. That is
:13:48. > :13:53.the latest from Brussels. Here, a former head of MI6,
:13:54. > :13:55.Sir Richard Dearlove, has questioned claims that leaving
:13:56. > :13:57.the EU would compromise security. But the Defence Secretary,
:13:58. > :14:00.Michael Fallon, said the recent terror attacks showed the need
:14:01. > :14:03.for more cooperation with the EU. Live to Westminster and our
:14:04. > :14:06.political guru Norman Smith. Fill us in.
:14:07. > :14:08.It is interesting, the questions about the Belgian security forces,
:14:09. > :14:11.the calibre and whether they were fully on top of the situation has
:14:12. > :14:18.really sparked a debate here about whether we were safer in other
:14:19. > :14:28.outside of the European Union. People like Theresa May, David
:14:29. > :14:34.Cameron, by and large saying that we are safer in, but this morning we
:14:35. > :14:37.had the former head of MI6, one of our top former spooks, man called
:14:38. > :14:42.Sir Richard Dearlove, basically saying, no, that is wrong. Let me
:14:43. > :14:47.give you the exact quote from Sir Richard Dearlove. He said: The cost
:14:48. > :14:53.to Britain would be low in security terms from leaving the EU.
:14:54. > :14:58.What is interesting about his argument, he is not basing it just
:14:59. > :15:02.around arguments of what sort of controls we have over our borders if
:15:03. > :15:08.we remain in the EU, he is questioning basically whether EU
:15:09. > :15:15.security bodies are good enough, because he says organisations like
:15:16. > :15:19.Europol, the European law-enforcement agency, is of little
:15:20. > :15:25.consequence. He says that because you have got 28 different countries
:15:26. > :15:29.all sitting around a table... Excuse me, we have got a fire alarm going
:15:30. > :15:33.on here, probably better if you come back to me in a bit because in my
:15:34. > :15:36.experience this can go on for some time and is quite annoying and quite
:15:37. > :15:38.loud, so we probably should just leave this for the time being, I
:15:39. > :15:50.think. Yesterday, John Reid told us he
:15:51. > :15:57.thought a further terrorist attack in Britain was now inevitable.
:15:58. > :16:02.Unfortunately, we can't guarantee, nor can any Government, that this
:16:03. > :16:05.sort of thing won't happen. Politicians ought to be honest with
:16:06. > :16:10.the British people and tell them, this will happen, this will happen,
:16:11. > :16:16.and it will happen here because the terrorists only have to get through
:16:17. > :16:21.once so we can quote the statistics and how many plots have been foiled,
:16:22. > :16:25.but the terrorists will get through. So you are expecting another attack,
:16:26. > :16:32.another terrorist attack in this country at some point in the future?
:16:33. > :16:38.Yes, yes I am. I don't think that's a secret because, as you know, we
:16:39. > :16:42.are at the second highest level of threat which is severe which means a
:16:43. > :16:45.terrorist attack is likely. And Britain has been at that threat
:16:46. > :16:50.level for some time? For some time. When I was Home Secretary, it was
:16:51. > :16:55.moved up to critical which means not only is an attack likely but we have
:16:56. > :17:00.information that it's imminent. It's different in the UK from, for
:17:01. > :17:05.instance, Belgium and I think you were raising some difficult issues
:17:06. > :17:10.in your previous interview. With the ambassador? Yes. At a time like
:17:11. > :17:13.this, our first thought is for the victims and condolences and
:17:14. > :17:21.solidarity with the nations and the individuals who've been affected.
:17:22. > :17:25.But, you know, you have to have a delicate and difficult balance with
:17:26. > :17:31.the issues raised. Belgium's historically had a degree of
:17:32. > :17:34.political instability. I think it's recognised that their Intelligence
:17:35. > :17:42.Services aren't as integrated in working together as perhaps ours are
:17:43. > :17:44.now. We use the police in a relationship with the Intelligence
:17:45. > :17:50.Services because, on the ground in the communities, you can pick up
:17:51. > :17:54.some pretty vital information and I think we are quite well resourced.
:17:55. > :17:57.John Reid talking to us yesterday. Let's look at what is being done to
:17:58. > :18:03.prevent terror attacks from happening in the UK. Frank Armstrong
:18:04. > :18:07.is former assistant commissioner of the City of London police who looked
:18:08. > :18:11.after Tony Blair when he was Prime Minister and the aviation security
:18:12. > :18:14.expert Matthew Finn is in our Westminster studio. Frank, do you
:18:15. > :18:20.agree with John Reid? I think John Reid makes a very good point. It's
:18:21. > :18:26.possible, Victoria. You have to look at the facts. In the last three
:18:27. > :18:29.years, there has been a 57% increase in arrests related to terrorism.
:18:30. > :18:34.There are a number of outstanding trials which still have to come to
:18:35. > :18:38.court. There were convictions yesterday, potential drive-by
:18:39. > :18:42.shooting. Looking at all the facts, Brussels, Paris, a Eurostar trip
:18:43. > :18:46.away from London, I think, you know, we do need to be concerned, we do
:18:47. > :18:51.need to be vigilant. The threat level severe and has been for some
:18:52. > :18:56.time as I said to John Reid yesterday but it's not been raised
:18:57. > :19:00.to the highest level which means an attack is imminent, that's surely
:19:01. > :19:07.significant? There will have been discussions. JTAC would look at the
:19:08. > :19:12.whole picture and make recommendations. I'm sure it's been
:19:13. > :19:16.closely scrutinised. We have thwarted seven attempts in the last
:19:17. > :19:20.12 months. I'm sure the Security Services and the police are doing
:19:21. > :19:26.everything they can to make sure that the public are safe. Mr Finn
:19:27. > :19:31.you have said one-size-fits-all doesn't fit with the security in
:19:32. > :19:35.this country, what do you mean? What's required in security context
:19:36. > :19:38.is to make sure you are managing risk, a good security framework is
:19:39. > :19:42.about managing the risks as you understand them in that specific
:19:43. > :19:46.context. So what I mean by that is, what works in one airport or one
:19:47. > :19:50.part of the world would need to be adapted in a different part of the
:19:51. > :19:54.world or the airport. So if we are always applying the same tools and
:19:55. > :19:57.techniques and procedures to every single person going through
:19:58. > :20:02.security, we are missing the opportunity to actually look at the
:20:03. > :20:07.potential risks the individual travellers may pose. What we are
:20:08. > :20:10.seeing in the US for example, is a programme called TSA Pre--check.
:20:11. > :20:17.There are a lot of people in the industry looking at this. This is a
:20:18. > :20:21.way of working with data to see for example whether a person's
:20:22. > :20:26.travelling on a one-way destination ticket which may be of concern. That
:20:27. > :20:30.would potentially reveal something about that person's behaviour which
:20:31. > :20:41.would give you cause to be vigilant, screen them in a different way and
:20:42. > :20:45.focus your attention on that person. So would you check that ticket,
:20:46. > :20:47.whether it was one way or return or whatever when the passenger arrives
:20:48. > :20:51.or would you have done it before they get to the terminal? There is
:20:52. > :20:55.an interesting debate in Brussels at the moment which is nearly coming to
:20:56. > :21:01.a close and that's around a piece of data called passenger name record
:21:02. > :21:04.data or PNR. That's something the Governments across the 28 member
:21:05. > :21:09.states of the European Union are looking to use in their response to
:21:10. > :21:15.combat serious organised crime and Counter-Terrorism. So in an
:21:16. > :21:19.environment like JTAC or indeed the UK's national borders targeting
:21:20. > :21:22.centre, you could be using that data before anyone gets anywhere near the
:21:23. > :21:28.airport to see what patterns may emerge. What if they've not bought a
:21:29. > :21:31.ticket, what if they are not on a passenger list, what if, as far as
:21:32. > :21:35.we know the suicide bombers that turned up in Brussels on Tuesday may
:21:36. > :21:39.have turned up that morning without buying anything in advance, they are
:21:40. > :21:43.going to blow themselves up? That is an excellent point and that's where
:21:44. > :21:50.the distinction needs to be made because an airport is essentially
:21:51. > :21:55.divided into two parts, there's the regulated area, then the other
:21:56. > :21:59.air-side area. What we saw in Brussels, the tragedy that unfolded
:22:00. > :22:04.there was the exploitation of the soft target, the vulnerable side,
:22:05. > :22:08.the public space. So what we need to do as an industry together with
:22:09. > :22:13.Government, and this is a global issue, not just about Belgium or
:22:14. > :22:18.about Brussels, is to look holtistically at how we can secure
:22:19. > :22:22.the entire airport campus by working together using different tools,
:22:23. > :22:26.techniques, data et cetera because you are right, someone could be in
:22:27. > :22:29.that departures hall that has no business being there, they are not
:22:30. > :22:33.travelling, they are not there to say goodbye to a fellow passenger
:22:34. > :22:36.that might be leaving that day. Frank Armstrong, as a former
:22:37. > :22:40.assistant Commissioner of The City of London police, you ordered police
:22:41. > :22:46.on to the streets of the city after 9/11 and a lot of people said, that
:22:47. > :22:50.made them feel very uneasy, rather than reassuring them? What was
:22:51. > :22:55.interesting, we put additional firearms officers out on the City
:22:56. > :22:59.and because people weren't used to it, they were concerned. Since then,
:23:00. > :23:04.we have had 7/7, we have seen attacks across the globe, people are
:23:05. > :23:08.more used to seeing police officers with firearms, so it's very much
:23:09. > :23:12.about reassurance and a preventative measure. People are getting used to
:23:13. > :23:17.it and, as you see in Brussels, the Army are deployed there. At some
:23:18. > :23:21.stage, the Army could be deployed here, worst case scenario. Again,
:23:22. > :23:25.would that be for reassurance purposes? We have limited resources.
:23:26. > :23:30.If there was a state of emergency, we've got to use all the resources
:23:31. > :23:33.possible and the Army would be a last resort but in the back of our
:23:34. > :23:36.minds, we need to know they are there to assist. It's basically to
:23:37. > :23:44.keep the country safe. Thank you both very much.
:23:45. > :23:51.Still to come: Adam Johnson is running into court there this
:23:52. > :23:55.morning ahead of his sentencing for sexual activity with a 15-year-old
:23:56. > :24:03.schoolgirl. The NSPCC call on the Football Association to do more to
:24:04. > :24:08.protect children. Next, Boko Haram, the militant group based in Nigeria
:24:09. > :24:14.who kidnapped almost 300 schoolgirls two years ago. It was also in 2014
:24:15. > :24:18.that the extremists started to use female suicide bombers. As the
:24:19. > :24:23.insurgency has been pushed out of the region's towns and villages,
:24:24. > :24:28.events have taken a more sinister turn. Girls as young as 12 are being
:24:29. > :24:32.strapped with explosives and sent to blow themselves up in busy
:24:33. > :24:37.communities. In an exclusive interview for BBC Africa, Anne Soy
:24:38. > :24:42.has spoken to a teenager who risked her life to escape after being told
:24:43. > :24:45.she'd been chosen for the mission. Some details including her name and
:24:46. > :24:55.voice have been changed to protect her identity.
:24:56. > :25:01.This is Hawa, she's about 17. She married into Boko Haram and moved
:25:02. > :25:07.into one of the camps with her fighter husband. Today, she isn't
:25:08. > :25:15.meant to be alive. She's supposed to be a human bomb.
:25:16. > :25:20.Two of her friends did just that, killing themselves and 58 others,
:25:21. > :25:28.mostly women and children. Just 24 hours before she was due to
:25:29. > :25:34.detonate, she's kept the clutches of the militants and has decided to
:25:35. > :25:42.tell us her story -- she escaped the clutches of the militants. We have
:25:43. > :25:46.agreed to keep her identity secret. My first husband took me to the Boko
:25:47. > :25:52.Haram camp. He said they would take me to the bush and move all the evil
:25:53. > :25:56.spirits from my body. I knew they were Boko Haram but followed them
:25:57. > :26:04.willingly. I said, if you help me remove the sickness, I will follow
:26:05. > :26:07.you. It wasn't a pleasant life. When they came back, they would gather us
:26:08. > :26:11.and tell us about the attacks and they would ask us to study what they
:26:12. > :26:18.were teaching us. That's how we got indoctrine ated. They said, if we
:26:19. > :26:22.died, we'd enter paradise. Once, a woman went somewhere without telling
:26:23. > :26:30.them. They gathered all the women together and killed her in front of
:26:31. > :26:34.us as a warning. They shot her. They wanted me to marry again after my
:26:35. > :26:44.husband left and I said no, I won't. That's when they told me I should
:26:45. > :26:48.take the bomb. Does that mean they only asked women to be suicide
:26:49. > :26:52.bombers? Yes, when they are tired of you, they'll tell you to two on a
:26:53. > :26:58.suicide mission. We were told to detonate at a camp. I said no. Since
:26:59. > :27:02.my mum was residing in that area, I wouldn't go and kill people, I would
:27:03. > :27:06.rather go and live with my family, even if I die there. So I sneaked
:27:07. > :27:10.out very early in the morning without their knowledge. The
:27:11. > :27:15.following morning I got there. That is when I learnt there had been a
:27:16. > :27:20.bomb-blast. I saw a video of the mutilated body of one of the girls.
:27:21. > :27:27.It wasn't pleasant to see. It isn't a good thing to carry a bomb to kill
:27:28. > :27:31.fellow human beings. This is the spot where the February attack
:27:32. > :27:34.happened. There are still bloodstains on the a road, a
:27:35. > :27:38.constant reminder to residents of what happened here during that
:27:39. > :27:41.attack. Many are survivors or even lost their loved ones. We are told
:27:42. > :27:48.there was a huge crowd crossing the road from one side of the camp to
:27:49. > :27:54.the other to collect water and food. Queueing in the camp is now banned,
:27:55. > :27:59.instead the line is formed and residents sit quietly waiting for
:28:00. > :28:04.their turn. Mass cooking is forbidden. Instead, meals are
:28:05. > :28:09.prepared in small communities. All this to prevent further attacks. But
:28:10. > :28:17.people here are still scared. They can't trust anyone, not even churn
:28:18. > :28:23.children. Fatima was injured. She still can't sleep after what she's
:28:24. > :28:26.saw. TRANSLATION: We brought our
:28:27. > :28:30.containers to get water. At the same time, a soldier was trying to
:28:31. > :28:35.arrange our queues. There was this woman wearing a red veil. She had
:28:36. > :28:40.long hair. She said, can't we beat up this soldier who is trying to
:28:41. > :28:48.disperse us. When I heard that, I turned back to look at her. As soon
:28:49. > :28:51.as I walked on to the road, she shouted, pretending that her stomach
:28:52. > :28:56.was hurting her, so people rushed to help her. That was when the bomb
:28:57. > :29:02.detonated. It was like something was put around us. I saw a ball of fire.
:29:03. > :29:12.I was frightened when I saw blood all around me and the dead bodies.
:29:13. > :29:17.We are still terrified. For this woman, her ordeal is over. She
:29:18. > :29:20.finally feels safe and is planning her future outside of Boko Haram. If
:29:21. > :29:26.I will marry again, I won't have anything to do with the mill tans. I
:29:27. > :29:31.will marry if I find a suitor. I want to go to school. Had it been I
:29:32. > :29:33.went to school, I would have known everything I wanted to know. I'm so

:35:21. > :35:26.15 weeks, and I can't find privately anywhere to live and the main reason
:35:27. > :35:35.Nobody wants housing benefit, and council-wise there's not enough
:35:36. > :35:38.properties and when there is one there are nearly 100
:35:39. > :35:49.There are around 5000 council properties in this part of Kent.
:35:50. > :35:51.There are 2500 people on the waiting list for social housing.
:35:52. > :35:54.At the same time, there's a real shortage of affordable private
:35:55. > :35:59.Most landlords simply refuse to take tenants on housing benefit.
:36:00. > :36:04.I am stuck in the middle of no-man's-land.
:36:05. > :36:10.Where do people go when they can't get a private rental and they can't
:36:11. > :36:17.I would love somebody to answer that because I've never known
:36:18. > :36:28.If she stays here, she will eventually be evicted and can
:36:29. > :36:33.Then the council may have to put the family
:36:34. > :36:37.The other option is to move back into her parents'

:36:49. > :37:03.It shouldn't be this way and it shouldn't be my only option.
:37:04. > :37:12.I will challenge anybody out there to find me somewhere to live.
:37:13. > :37:16.Our political guru Norman Smith has been talking with
:37:17. > :37:19.Housing Minister Brandon Lewis about what he's doing to deal
:37:20. > :37:29.What we're doing is working to support people who want a chance to
:37:30. > :37:32.own their own home, whether it is to help to buy, right to buy, a range
:37:33. > :37:37.of the schemes including shared ownership where people can get into
:37:38. > :37:41.ownership for about ?4000, we want to give people the chance to own
:37:42. > :37:48.their home. I am also clear, we want to see an increase in housing supply
:37:49. > :37:51.across all sectors, not just social housing, but affordable housing as
:37:52. > :37:56.well. On so-called pay to stay, reports
:37:57. > :37:59.had sent higher rents would kick in at 30 or ?40,000 depending on
:38:00. > :38:01.whether you are in London, but Mr Lewis says it is not quite like
:38:02. > :38:05.that. First of all, that is not how the
:38:06. > :38:08.scheme will work, we have been clear from the beginning that it tapers,
:38:09. > :38:12.we have consulted on this, there will be a table which means when
:38:13. > :38:24.people move above ?30,000 outside London, which is above the median
:38:25. > :38:27.income, 40,000 in London, they start to pay a bit more rent. Bear in mind
:38:28. > :38:29.there are tens of thousands of people owning over -- earning over
:38:30. > :38:32.?50,000 a year and using social housing. There will be a table, it
:38:33. > :38:35.will not have a cliff edge, it will always pay to work, and we will be
:38:36. > :38:44.clear that the table will make sure it is affordable to people.
:38:45. > :38:47.With me is Lord Bob Kerslake, former head for the civil
:38:48. > :38:50.service of the Communities and Local Government department
:38:51. > :38:53.and Chair of Housing Association the Peabody Trust.
:38:54. > :38:56.Lord Kerslake says this housing bill could be the "end of social housing
:38:57. > :39:00.Jan Sweeney and her husband have a household income of just over
:39:01. > :39:02.the ?40,000 suggested upper limit before paying market rent
:39:03. > :39:05.on her home in Kensington and Chelsea - one of London's
:39:06. > :39:19.Jan thinks she might have to move or give up work if this becomes law.
:39:20. > :39:22.Carolyn Gelenter would also be affected by pay-to-stay measures
:39:23. > :39:24.and is thinking about cutting back her hours to part-time
:39:25. > :39:26.so she can afford to stay in her flat.
:39:27. > :39:28.Carolyn is also worried about suggested changes to secure
:39:29. > :39:31.tenancies - the idea of having a council house for life.
:39:32. > :39:35.Carolyn Gelenter would also be affected by pay-to-stay measures
:39:36. > :39:38.And Linzi Cooper and Rozlin Hunt are in Eastleigh for us this morning.
:39:39. > :39:40.They are neighbours in Housing Association homes
:39:41. > :39:43.and would love to buy their homes - if the chance for them to buy them
:39:44. > :39:50.Linzi and Roz have been neighbours for four years.
:39:51. > :39:55.Lord Kerslake, you say these plans could be the end of social housing
:39:56. > :40:00.as we know it, why? The combination of policies that the Government is
:40:01. > :40:06.taking forward will really impact on those ordinary people who live in
:40:07. > :40:10.their properties now. First of all, the Government is cutting back on
:40:11. > :40:14.the investment in new and affordable homes. Secondly, people who are
:40:15. > :40:17.paying, earning a bit more, people we will hear about later one are
:40:18. > :40:21.going to have to start paying a lot more rent, that is a big issue.
:40:22. > :40:24.Crucially, the way in which the Government wants to fund the
:40:25. > :40:29.opportunity for people to buy, and we will hear about them, is going to
:40:30. > :40:33.come from the forced sale of council houses, so you will lose two houses,
:40:34. > :40:46.one from the right-to-buy sale and one from the council sale.
:40:47. > :40:49.Typically higher value properties in areas where people want to live,
:40:50. > :40:51.they are the bigger properties, the ones most in demand. Councils are
:40:52. > :40:54.supposed to replace the one they have sold to fund the discount for
:40:55. > :40:56.the ones buying the housing association home like-for-like. You
:40:57. > :40:59.sell one, you build another one. We all hope that will be the case but
:41:00. > :41:07.the reality so far of the one policy is that for every eight sold, only
:41:08. > :41:12.one being built. Carolyn and Jan, Carolyn, you own over ?40,000, you
:41:13. > :41:18.are a higher rate taxpayer, Jan, you and your husband earned just over
:41:19. > :41:21.the ?40,000 pay-to-stay limit which has been suggested for London, what
:41:22. > :41:26.impact will a rents rise have on your families, even if it is tapered
:41:27. > :41:30.as Brandon Lewis suggests? First of all, I don't know what that means,
:41:31. > :41:35.second ball... It means it will go just a little up depending on what
:41:36. > :41:40.your salary is. Yes, but I don't know what that means in practice. At
:41:41. > :41:47.the moment, my flat, a one-bedroom flat in central London, in Camden,
:41:48. > :41:51.the private rent is ?2500 per month. By my calculation, you would have to
:41:52. > :41:56.be earning at least double what I'm earning to be able to afford to pay
:41:57. > :42:02.that kind of... Do you mind me asking what you pay at the moment?
:42:03. > :42:07.?650 per month for a council rent. That is a big difference. A huge
:42:08. > :42:11.difference. Jan, what difference will it have on you and your husband
:42:12. > :42:15.if the rent is put up to market rates, as the Government is
:42:16. > :42:19.suggesting? I would have to give up work to keep the rent as it is now.
:42:20. > :42:22.I am at a stage in my life where I can do the odd treat with the
:42:23. > :42:28.grandchildren, not expensive holidays, we don't even own a car,
:42:29. > :42:32.but I'm just at that stage in my life where I don't have to worry so
:42:33. > :42:36.much about money, and now this will bring me back down to the bread
:42:37. > :42:41.line. This is the critical issue, when this policy was first thought
:42:42. > :42:45.it was aimed at people over 60,000, people aren't quite high incomes,
:42:46. > :42:49.but bringing down the level of the income to 30 and 40, 40 is not a lot
:42:50. > :42:56.in London as anybody who lives in London will tell you, you are
:42:57. > :43:00.heading into a lot bigger issues, a bigger number of people. This is
:43:01. > :43:03.what the Government says, quote, it is not fair that hard-working people
:43:04. > :43:07.are subsidising the lifestyles of those on higher than average incomes
:43:08. > :43:12.to the tune of ?3500 per year. Where does this figure come from anger
:43:13. > :43:16.that thread I have spoken to several councillors where I live and asked
:43:17. > :43:21.them, is my rent subsidised? There and that is, no, you are paying more
:43:22. > :43:26.than what you need to pay. We put the extra money aside for a
:43:27. > :43:31.contingency fund, so where does this bigger come from? And, excuse me,
:43:32. > :43:36.I'm a hard-working taxpayer! I don't doubt it. The other thing is, if
:43:37. > :43:41.this bill goes through, I will be forced to go down to part-time work
:43:42. > :43:45.so I'm going from a high rate taxpayer to a low rate taxpayer, so
:43:46. > :43:54.how does that help the economy in any way? Let me bring in Linzi and
:43:55. > :43:58.Roslin. Linzi, you are desperate to buy your housing association home,
:43:59. > :44:07.so this bill, if it goes through, will potentially help you? Yes,
:44:08. > :44:11.hopefully. I absolutely love my house and don't want to live
:44:12. > :44:15.anywhere else, I have built my business here, my child goes to
:44:16. > :44:19.school just up the road, I have got great neighbours, it is a really
:44:20. > :44:22.nice area and be, my husband and children are really happy here and
:44:23. > :44:26.don't want to live anywhere else. Is it right that you will get a
:44:27. > :44:30.discount funded by your local councils selling of a higher value,
:44:31. > :44:33.more expensive, apparently empty council house somewhere else in
:44:34. > :44:37.more expensive, apparently empty borough? I don't really know about
:44:38. > :44:41.that. I don't feel that I am owed anything or anything like that, I
:44:42. > :44:45.don't want something for nothing. I worked really hard, we work lots of
:44:46. > :44:48.others, and unfortunately I can't afford to buy a house on the open
:44:49. > :44:52.market, wouldn't be able to afford the deposit and couldn't afford to
:44:53. > :44:56.pay a mortgage, unfortunately, on the full cost of my house at the
:44:57. > :45:07.moment. If I got the discount I would be really grateful and it
:45:08. > :45:10.means I can own a property it is probably the only opportunity we
:45:11. > :45:13.will get to own a property. Rosslyn, is it the same for you? Why do you
:45:14. > :45:16.want to buy yet rather than carry on renting? I think it is more for my
:45:17. > :45:20.future and my children. We have spent a lot of money doing up our
:45:21. > :45:26.own house, we cannot afford to buy on the open market, it would take is
:45:27. > :45:30.a long time to save for a deposit, obviously if pay to stay come since
:45:31. > :45:35.it does affect us and it would be even more out of our reach, we would
:45:36. > :45:39.not be able to afford a deposit at all to buy a house, so we would be
:45:40. > :45:49.grateful for the opportunity to do so. I think Linzi and Roslin should
:45:50. > :45:52.have the opportunity to buy, but question is how you should fund the
:45:53. > :45:56.discount, is it fair that other people do is the option for social
:45:57. > :45:59.housing to fund the discount? The problem we have is that we are not
:46:00. > :46:03.building enough houses of any type and that is what we have to be
:46:04. > :46:08.focused on, not, if you like, reshuffling the deck chairs around.
:46:09. > :46:13.The house price differences between out of London and in London, even if
:46:14. > :46:18.I wanted to buy my flat, which actually I don't, I love the fact
:46:19. > :46:22.that I have a secure tenancy and reasonable rent, but even if I
:46:23. > :46:29.wanted to buy it, the current rate is ?650,000. The other thing that
:46:30. > :46:33.people need to know is that if I was forced to leave my flat because of
:46:34. > :46:40.the pay-to-stay rent, it wouldn't go to a poor person, it would be sold,
:46:41. > :46:46.because part of this is that vacant houses worth over ?350,000, which is
:46:47. > :46:50.pretty well every place in Camden, will have to be sold immediately. So
:46:51. > :46:56.who is going to buy my flat? A wealthy person! Which is some of the
:46:57. > :47:00.criticism of this policy, it will mean that communities are not mixed

:47:13. > :47:17.sale of a council property to pay for the discount and I think one for

:48:27. > :48:30.grateful, I don't feel entitled. Who blames you, if the opportunity was
:48:31. > :48:34.there, you would take it. That's really not the issue, it's about

:48:58. > :49:07.Thank you all very much for your time and Linzi and Roz as well.
:49:08. > :49:14.Adam Johnson has lodged an appeal against his conviction for sexually
:49:15. > :49:17.touching a 15-year-old schoolgirl. It was confirmed ahead of his
:49:18. > :49:21.sentencing at Bradford Crown Court today. We are awaiting that
:49:22. > :49:25.sentence. He admits grooming the schoolgirl and one count of sexual
:49:26. > :49:30.activity involving kissing. He could face up to ten years in prison. He's
:49:31. > :49:36.been told by the judge to say goodbye to his daughter. This
:49:37. > :49:40.morning, his sister posted on social media saying she was too upset to
:49:41. > :49:42.attend court and would instead stay at home with Adam Johnson's daughter
:49:43. > :49:49.and the mother of his child, Stacey. Our reporter Fiona Trott is outside
:49:50. > :50:00.Bradford Crown Court for us now. Tell us what Adam Johnson did?
:50:01. > :50:04.We are hearing from inside the court, the very latest from my
:50:05. > :50:07.correspondent who is in the court at the moment, my colleague, Ed Thomas,
:50:08. > :50:12.he said that the victim's impact statement is being read out in
:50:13. > :50:17.court. He said that the girl said she'd suffered at school, she felt
:50:18. > :50:21.intimidated, the victim's mother's also said she felt powerless that
:50:22. > :50:25.she couldn't protect her own child and at no time has any member of
:50:26. > :50:29.their family sought to make money from the case. That's the latest
:50:30. > :50:34.from inside the court, hearing details of that victim impact
:50:35. > :50:38.statement. Earlier in January this year, Adam Johnson had already been
:50:39. > :50:43.grooming this 15-year-old football fan via social media. In the end,
:50:44. > :50:48.over 800 message had been exchanged between them. They were meeting for
:50:49. > :50:52.a second time in secret in his car, he'd already given her a signed
:50:53. > :50:57.football shirt, and he told her "I've come for my thank you kiss"
:50:58. > :51:01.and the court heard that's when he put his hand inside her trousers.
:51:02. > :51:06.The court heard that this young girl told her father she wanted to kill
:51:07. > :51:09.herself and she confided in him about what had happened. Remember
:51:10. > :51:13.she broke down several times when she was giving evidence here at
:51:14. > :51:17.Bradford Crown Court. This trial, of course, has already raised questions
:51:18. > :51:23.about exactly what Sunderland football club knew. Adam Johnson was
:51:24. > :51:27.suspended when he was arrested but that was lifted after 16 days. He
:51:28. > :51:33.was then able to carry on playing for the club. 28 matches in total.
:51:34. > :51:38.During that time, he was earning ?60,000 a week. Now, after this
:51:39. > :51:41.trial, the Chief Executive of Sunderland Football Club, Margaret
:51:42. > :51:46.Byrne said this: Contrary to what has been suggested, I did not
:51:47. > :51:54.understand that Mr Johnson intended to change his plea. I was astounded
:51:55. > :51:59.when he did plead guilty. As a consequence, Margaret Byrne
:52:00. > :52:02.resigned. She said: I accept Mr Johnson shouldn't have been
:52:03. > :52:05.permitted to play again irrespective of what he was going to plead,
:52:06. > :52:10.health service a serious error of judgment.
:52:11. > :52:14.So that is the latest here from Bradford Crown Court. I'm just
:52:15. > :52:17.checking to see if there are any more developments from inside. I'm
:52:18. > :52:23.hearing from my colleague Ed Thomas that the player had told the, the
:52:24. > :52:27.court was told that Sunderland FC sorry, they were well aware of what
:52:28. > :52:31.he'd done. That is the latest detail we are hearing from inside the court
:52:32. > :52:34.at the moment. Of course, as you know, the judge, Jonathan Rose, is
:52:35. > :52:38.due to hand down sentencing very shortly.
:52:39. > :52:42.Thank you for the moment. Yesterday, the Football Association released a
:52:43. > :52:54.film on child protection on the eve of Adam Johnson's sentencing. It
:52:55. > :53:03.doesn't refer directly to the ex-ex-Sunderland player's case but
:53:04. > :53:07.here is a clip. We have football clubs, they know what they are doing
:53:08. > :53:10.and work with management teams to put safeguards in place, that's what
:53:11. > :53:15.we want. In addition to that, we have to look at those in roles that
:53:16. > :53:20.give them power and influence arrange coaches and managers who
:53:21. > :53:23.pick and choose what is happening and those should include criminal
:53:24. > :53:27.records checks and ensure they have safeguarding training. We have done
:53:28. > :53:31.50,000 checks a year and 35,000 people going through that training.
:53:32. > :53:35.What responsibilities do professional clubs have? In addition
:53:36. > :53:39.to that, they have to make sure all of their staff understand the
:53:40. > :53:42.conduct that is expected of them and they need to monitor that. And
:53:43. > :53:48.obviously if anything comes to light, the deal with that, and if
:53:49. > :53:52.someone is in a role wider than club, to inform ourselves so that we
:53:53. > :53:59.can become involved or the statutory agencies. Are criminal record checks
:54:00. > :54:02.carried out on all players? The law, not football, governs who can and
:54:03. > :54:06.can't have a criminal records check and simply playing, although that
:54:07. > :54:11.might bring a lot of celebrity for some, isn't a role that we can
:54:12. > :54:16.legally make criminal records checks on.
:54:17. > :54:21.Let's speak to Jon Brown from the NSPCC.
:54:22. > :54:29.How concerned are you that there are no criminal records checks? This
:54:30. > :54:31.beggars belief that Adam Johnson was originally suspended and
:54:32. > :54:35.unbelievably that was lifted and he was allowed to play. That
:54:36. > :54:40.contravenes the FA rules and regulations and advice to clubs.
:54:41. > :54:43.What we are concerned about at the NSPCC is to what extent is that
:54:44. > :54:47.happening elsewhere. We don't know but I think it would be unwise to
:54:48. > :54:54.assume that Sunderland is one example alone here.
:54:55. > :54:59.The NSPCC works, I'm told, with the FA monitoring body child protection
:55:00. > :55:03.in sport unit. Is that failing? The child protection in sport unit is an
:55:04. > :55:11.NSPCC body and we have been working with the FA for 15 years now very
:55:12. > :55:16.productively and collaboratively our work with the FA has helped inform a
:55:17. > :55:20.good set of world class set of policies and protections related to
:55:21. > :55:24.safeguarding. Frankly, they are not going to be worth a lot if they are
:55:25. > :55:30.not implemented at club level. That's our concern. That didn't
:55:31. > :55:34.happen in Sunderland. What we need to see is that the club culture is
:55:35. > :55:38.right across the country, whether we are talking about Premier League
:55:39. > :55:44.clubs or a local Sunday league club, that culture is right from the top.
:55:45. > :55:47.There needs to be a zero tolerance approach to anything illegal
:55:48. > :55:50.obviously, but a really positive approach from relation to the
:55:51. > :55:54.protection and welfare of children. That wasn't happening at Sunderland
:55:55. > :55:58.clearly. There are some football supporters and newspaper columnists
:55:59. > :56:05.who don't believe Adam Johnson is a paedophile. What do you say to that?
:56:06. > :56:09.That is someone who has a sexual interest in young children, so that
:56:10. > :56:14.is correct that he's not a paedophile, but he's sexually abused
:56:15. > :56:18.and exploited a child, a schoolgirl. That's had a devastating effect
:56:19. > :56:22.clearly on the victim. We have heard the victim impact statement. It's
:56:23. > :56:28.had a devastating effect. He knew what he was doing was wrong. That's
:56:29. > :56:32.very clear. He's now going to get sentenced and no doubt that will
:56:33. > :56:35.reflect the severity of what he's done. He's now a sex offender and
:56:36. > :56:41.he's going to need to recognise that. He's devastated and ruined his
:56:42. > :56:45.clear and more importantly, he's had a huge devastating impact on a child
:56:46. > :56:52.as well. From your expertise and experience,
:56:53. > :56:59.how do you help teenagers, children sometimes younger than that, try to
:57:00. > :57:04.deal with the experience of being groomed and abused? It's important
:57:05. > :57:08.to make the person understand it's not their fault. Particularly in
:57:09. > :57:12.this situation where a footballer, an international Premier League
:57:13. > :57:15.footballer, they have an iconic status and there are children up and
:57:16. > :57:18.down the country playing football and they look up to these
:57:19. > :57:22.individuals. So when there is the opportunity to meet someone like
:57:23. > :57:29.that, there's a huge power imbalance there so they are made to feel it's
:57:30. > :57:33.their fought. When we work they are pewically with children, it's about
:57:34. > :57:38.helping that child understand that it wasn't their fault -- it's their
:57:39. > :57:43.fault. We teach them that there is light at
:57:44. > :57:46.the end of the tunnel and we let the positive future back in for them. I
:57:47. > :57:51.think the programmes we run have shown to be effective. We just
:57:52. > :57:57.evaluated that and I think they can be enabled to get over what's
:57:58. > :58:00.happened. Prevention is key really and prevention within football clubs
:58:01. > :58:05.and ensuring that the Football Association are really satisfied
:58:06. > :58:10.that their world class policies and procedures are embedded at club
:58:11. > :58:13.level for a process of support, encouragement and audit as well.
:58:14. > :58:18.Thank you very much Jon Brown from the NSPCC.
