Police Officers who worked for South Yorkshire Police are told

:00:07.:00:19.

they "did a good job" in the 1980s, despite the damning criticism

:00:20.:00:23.

of them in the Hillsborough inquests.

:00:24.:00:27.

Thousands attended a vigil in Liverpool last night as pressure

:00:28.:00:35.

mounts for a fundamental shake-up of the South Yorkshire force.

:00:36.:00:37.

They're some of the most vulnerable

:00:38.:00:48.

children in the country, so why is the mental

:00:49.:00:50.

health of kids in care not being looked after properly?

:00:51.:00:52.

And doctors say e-cigs are better for you than the real thing

:00:53.:00:55.

and if you're a smoker you should switch to vaping -

:00:56.:00:58.

and the BBC news channel until 11 this morning.

:00:59.:01:15.

We're all going to get our say on whether we should be in or out

:01:16.:01:19.

of Europe in a few weeks but what about Brits who live abroad

:01:20.:01:22.

Some of them want to have a vote in June and this morning a court

:01:23.:01:27.

Do get in touch on all the stories we're talking

:01:28.:01:41.

about this morning - use the hashtag #VictoriaLive,

:01:42.:01:46.

And don't forget if you've got a story you think we should be

:01:47.:01:52.

Some of our best stories come from you, our viewers.

:01:53.:01:56.

a good job" in the 1980s, despite the damning criticism of

:01:57.:02:01.

The officers have been praised as dedicated,

:02:02.:02:06.

Those remarks are from a group supporting retired

:02:07.:02:10.

officers, and they've accidentally been made public.

:02:11.:02:15.

The Chief Constable was suspended yesterday because of the approach

:02:16.:02:17.

Tens of thousands filled the centre of Liverpool to remember the 96,

:02:18.:02:37.

joining together in the anthem they sing in their honour.

:02:38.:02:39.

Then the news filtered through that the Chief Constable

:02:40.:02:42.

of South Yorkshire Police, David Crompton, had been suspended.

:02:43.:02:44.

Let's hope that's only the beginning of what is going to be

:02:45.:02:52.

done, because all of you alongside all of us have had 27 years

:02:53.:02:55.

Let's hope they're getting theirs now.

:02:56.:02:59.

Throughout the two-year inquest, lawyers for South Yorkshire police

:03:00.:03:07.

repeatedly suggested the Liverpool fans were partly

:03:08.:03:09.

David Crompton was suspended by the Police and Crime Commissioner

:03:10.:03:16.

of the force, who said there had been an erosion of trust.

:03:17.:03:22.

The Chief Constable is the public face of South Yorkshire Police

:03:23.:03:25.

Therefore, if there is a draining away of confidence in the chief

:03:26.:03:30.

Two criminal investigations into South Yorkshire Police have

:03:31.:03:34.

One into manslaughter and another possible offences on that day

:03:35.:03:43.

at Hillsborough, the 15th of April 1989.

:03:44.:03:47.

The other is examining allegations of a police cover-up afterwards.

:03:48.:03:51.

It's taken 27 years for the families to hear their loved ones

:03:52.:03:54.

were unlawfully killed, and they won't stop their fight

:03:55.:03:59.

until they feel those responsible have been brought to justice.

:04:00.:04:01.

Our correspondent Dan Johnson is outside the South Yorkshire Police

:04:02.:04:11.

Fresh controversy this morning over comments made by a retired member

:04:12.:04:15.

This force just cannot escape the scandals and failures of its past.

:04:16.:04:30.

That is completely overshadowing the current day force, and it has cost

:04:31.:04:34.

the job of the Chief Constable at least, who was suspended from duty

:04:35.:04:38.

yesterday. It is the Deputy Chief Constable who will be leading this

:04:39.:04:42.

force when she arrives for work this morning, and the force has to

:04:43.:04:45.

somehow try to rebuild and move on from everything that has gone on,

:04:46.:04:49.

because there are still officers out on the streets who have to do the

:04:50.:04:52.

job will protect people in South Yorkshire. No doubt their morale has

:04:53.:04:56.

suffered across the force has taken such a battering. It is the response

:04:57.:05:01.

of some of these historical failings that is still having such an impact,

:05:02.:05:05.

and this fresh controversy linking to comments that were posted by

:05:06.:05:11.

mistake on the website of the South Yorkshire retired police officers

:05:12.:05:16.

Association. There was a press statement posted there yesterday, a

:05:17.:05:19.

public statement which sent out condolences to the Hillsborough

:05:20.:05:24.

families in the aftermath of the inquest conclusions, and said that

:05:25.:05:26.

the association stood by those verdicts. But below that, there was

:05:27.:05:31.

another posting which was entitled, it was a bad day, and it appears

:05:32.:05:37.

this was only supposed to be circulated between retired police

:05:38.:05:41.

officers. In that posting, the secretary of the Association, wrote,

:05:42.:05:47.

we tried to remain dignified amongst all the bile and hatred directed

:05:48.:05:51.

towards South Yorkshire Police and those of us who served in the 80s.

:05:52.:05:56.

After all that transpired yesterday, I worked in a great police force, it

:05:57.:06:00.

is my belief, with fantastic people who did extraordinary things. He

:06:01.:06:04.

goes on to say he is extremely proud to be an ex-South Yorkshire cop, and

:06:05.:06:09.

will hold his head up high. He goes through the challenges that the

:06:10.:06:15.

force faces, the steel strike, the miners dispute, Hillsborough, and he

:06:16.:06:18.

says yes, mistakes were made, and we would all like to turn the clock

:06:19.:06:23.

back, but he said beyond those headlines, the people of South

:06:24.:06:26.

Yorkshire would served by dedicated police officers. He says you will be

:06:27.:06:32.

feeling angry and disheartened, but we did a good job, we all did. These

:06:33.:06:36.

comments have caused some hurt amongst Hillsborough families. Last

:06:37.:06:44.

night, we got reaction from Barry Devonside, whose son Christopher

:06:45.:06:50.

died in the disaster. There were 200 officers walking around, aimlessly,

:06:51.:06:54.

no direction, no leadership. And when people were trying to climb out

:06:55.:06:59.

of pens three and pen four, police officers were pushing them back in,

:07:00.:07:07.

so I don't accept that. The officer who made that posting has now taken

:07:08.:07:11.

the comments down and says they were never intended for public

:07:12.:07:14.

consumption and he never meant to cause offence, it is another example

:07:15.:07:17.

of how this force is struggling to move on from its past. There are

:07:18.:07:21.

even questions about whether the force should continue to exist in

:07:22.:07:24.

the future. Dan, thank you very much indeed.

:07:25.:07:30.

Well, more on that in a few minutes, but first here's Annita

:07:31.:07:33.

in the BBC Newsroom with a summary of the rest of the days news.

:07:34.:07:35.

The Labour Party has a serious problem with anti-Semitism,

:07:36.:07:44.

according to one of its most high profile peers.

:07:45.:07:47.

following the suspension of the Labour MP, Naz Shah,

:07:48.:07:50.

for comments she made about Israel before she entered Parliament.

:07:51.:07:52.

She has apologised, but the peer said people were increasingly

:07:53.:07:55.

using attacks on Israel as a way of showing their hatred

:07:56.:07:57.

I think it just shows such ignorance, and the tweets and

:07:58.:08:05.

comments she made on Hitler, I just begin to almost scratch my head in

:08:06.:08:09.

despair as to how people like this can enter our Parliament. Lord

:08:10.:08:13.

Leavy. A group of economists will say today

:08:14.:08:15.

that leaving the European Union would benefit Britain's

:08:16.:08:19.

financial services sector and could lead to a fall

:08:20.:08:22.

in unemployment. the Prime Minister and the former

:08:23.:08:24.

leader of the TUC, Sir Brendan Barber, have set

:08:25.:08:28.

aside their political differences to write an article

:08:29.:08:30.

for the Guardian, arguing the case Smokers should be encouraged

:08:31.:08:32.

to switch to e-cigarettes to help them quit, according to a report

:08:33.:08:36.

by the Royal College of Physicans. It says its findings lay to rest

:08:37.:08:39.

nearly all the concerns Here's our health correspondent,

:08:40.:08:42.

Adam Brimelow. The growing popularity

:08:43.:08:57.

of e-cigarettes has prompted debate about their safety and potential

:08:58.:08:59.

to help people quit tobacco smoking and the risk they may

:09:00.:09:01.

encourage some to take it up. The Royal College of Physicians

:09:02.:09:04.

concludes the impact so far has been positive,

:09:05.:09:06.

they have helped many thousands to quit and the switch

:09:07.:09:08.

to vaping is a dramatic step The report says e-cigarettes are not

:09:09.:09:11.

a gateway to smoking. In the UK they are used mostly

:09:12.:09:14.

by current or former It acknowledges harm

:09:15.:09:17.

from long-term use is possible, but is likely to be very small

:09:18.:09:20.

and it says they will become safer We have so far seen a very positive

:09:21.:09:23.

development and in particular have helped many thousands

:09:24.:09:29.

of smokers to quit smoking. So this is an opportunity

:09:30.:09:31.

that we should be seizing for public health and managing,

:09:32.:09:34.

rather than trying to snuff out. Welcoming the report,

:09:35.:09:41.

the Department of Health in England said there were now more

:09:42.:09:47.

than a million people who have completely replaced

:09:48.:09:49.

smoking with e-cigarettes. But some public health experts

:09:50.:09:51.

remain cautious and say more research is needed

:09:52.:09:53.

to understand the risks. A group of MPs says many

:09:54.:09:58.

children in care are falling through the cracks when it comes

:09:59.:10:01.

to their mental health. The education select committee found

:10:02.:10:04.

that almost half of children who are looked after by local

:10:05.:10:06.

authorities or in foster care have a diagnosable

:10:07.:10:08.

mental health disorder. The MPs say children

:10:09.:10:10.

in care are four times more likely than their peers

:10:11.:10:13.

to have a mental health condition. Profits at Facebook have tripled

:10:14.:10:23.

in the first quarter of 2016, compared to a year ago,

:10:24.:10:31.

rising to more than Most of the revenues came

:10:32.:10:33.

from a boom in advertising The social networkers continued to

:10:34.:10:45.

grow, and 1.65 billion people are logging on at least once a month,

:10:46.:10:49.

that is 200 million more people than time last year.

:10:50.:10:52.

That's a summary of the latest BBC News - more at 9.30.

:10:53.:10:55.

Back to you, Norman. Annita, thank you so much.

:10:56.:11:08.

Should the Labour Party Stamp Act anti-Semitism? Some feel that it

:11:09.:11:23.

should. Do get in touch with the usual methods.

:11:24.:11:28.

Sport now, and more crisis in British Cycling this morning.

:11:29.:11:32.

Good morning. The crisis at British Cycling has

:11:33.:11:35.

deepened since we covered The suspended technical director

:11:36.:11:37.

Shane Sutton has now resigned, he says to take any distraction away

:11:38.:11:41.

from the team as they prepare UK Sport has also asked

:11:42.:11:44.

the organisation to investigate whether official TeamGB kit,

:11:45.:11:48.

paid for by National Lottery funds - including a high-performance bike -

:11:49.:11:51.

is being sold online for profit. Well, Sutton has been accused

:11:52.:11:54.

of making sexist comments and also being highly offensive

:11:55.:11:57.

in the terms he used to describe He denies the specific claims

:11:58.:11:59.

against him and says he will co-operate with an independent

:12:00.:12:06.

review to examine the culture It is really, really important that

:12:07.:12:16.

we have this independent review so that anybody who has had those

:12:17.:12:20.

experiences, they get a chance to talk to an independent panel, and we

:12:21.:12:26.

can fully investigate that. It is not many people's experience of

:12:27.:12:33.

British Cycling, but it should be investigated independently? Is it

:12:34.:12:37.

your experience? Not at all. So are you surprised? I am, but that is why

:12:38.:12:43.

we need an independent panel to investigate this, we need to look at

:12:44.:12:45.

these allegations. Ian Drake talking to our

:12:46.:12:48.

sports editor Dan Roan. You know we had Vladimir Klitchsko

:12:49.:12:53.

doing the rounds here yesterday, thankfully we didn't have Tyson Fury

:12:54.:12:59.

because we might have seen this. The

:13:00.:13:03.

World heavyweight Champion showed went head to head to promote

:13:04.:13:04.

their rematch in Manchester in July. Fury goaded Klitschko by saying how

:13:05.:13:10.

the Ukrainian lost to a fat man six months ago but he can beat him again

:13:11.:13:13.

in any kind of shape although he did I am naturally fit. I could do 12

:13:14.:13:31.

rounds when I weigh 20 stone, fat pig, it is not about how hard you

:13:32.:13:36.

train, it is the natural energy you have got. I could do ten rounds

:13:37.:13:43.

right now. I ran six miles yesterday afternoon, and then I did one hour

:13:44.:13:47.

on the cross trainer and one hour on a bike, so I can't be that unfit,

:13:48.:13:50.

and I have only just started training!

:13:51.:13:54.

We had a goal in the second of the Champions League semifinals

:13:55.:13:57.

Atletico Madrid have a 1-0 lead against

:13:58.:14:01.

Bayern Munich ahead of the second leg in Germany next week .

:14:02.:14:04.

It was a terrific solo effort from Saul.

:14:05.:14:06.

Remember Manchester City and Real Madrid drew 0-0

:14:07.:14:09.

Champion John Higgins to reach his first semifinal

:14:10.:14:17.

at the World Snooker Championship in 23 years.

:14:18.:14:20.

He beat his good friend and compatriot 13 frames to 11

:14:21.:14:24.

The other semifinal will be between Marco Fu and world number

:14:25.:14:33.

Fu was 9-1 up against Barry Hawkins but held on to win 13-11 as well.

:14:34.:14:41.

Both semifinals will be on BBC Two and across the BBC,

:14:42.:14:44.

the first of them starts at one this afternoon

:14:45.:14:46.

That's all your sport for now, I'll be back

:14:47.:14:51.

The inquest sat for over two years and whilst the families of the 96

:14:52.:15:01.

Hillsborough victims celebrated the conclusions, the focus is now

:15:02.:15:04.

Despite the damning criticism of the force, a group representing

:15:05.:15:08.

retired officers in South Yorkshire has told its members they should be

:15:09.:15:11.

proud of their work during the 1980s.

:15:12.:15:15.

The message was made public accidentally and then withdrawn.

:15:16.:15:17.

The current Chief Constable was suspended yesterday and some

:15:18.:15:19.

are calling for the force to be broken up.

:15:20.:15:24.

30,000 people attended a vigil in Liverpool last night

:15:25.:15:26.

in memory of those who died in the Hillsborough

:15:27.:15:28.

There were emotional scenes as the crowd joined together

:15:29.:15:35.

# When you walk through the storm # Hold your head up high

:15:36.:15:53.

# And don't be afraid of the dark # At the end of the storm

:15:54.:16:09.

# There's a golden sky # And the sweet silver

:16:10.:16:19.

# Walk on through the wind # Walk on through the rain

:16:20.:16:45.

# Though your dreams # Be tossed and blown

:16:46.:17:03.

# Walk on walk on # With hope in your heart

:17:04.:17:20.

# And you'll never walk alone # You'll never walk alone #.

:17:21.:17:47.

Louise Brookes lost her 26-year-old brother Andrew at Hillsborough.

:17:48.:17:53.

Louise, I imagine with the inquest verdict comic you had hoped to have

:17:54.:18:03.

reached the end of the road and yet it seems not, with very serious

:18:04.:18:08.

questions Navas in South Yorkshire Police. Let me ask you first, what

:18:09.:18:12.

was your feeling when you heard this morning about that posed by the

:18:13.:18:16.

retired officer saying they should be proud because they had done a

:18:17.:18:21.

good job? I am not surprised at all with their attitude. This just goes

:18:22.:18:29.

to prove what kind of people us families and the survivors have been

:18:30.:18:35.

up against for the last 27 years. Let me make myself perfectly clear.

:18:36.:18:45.

The 96, and the survivors and us families are really the victim of a

:18:46.:18:52.

crime. And these officers, the minority of the police officers, did

:18:53.:19:03.

help, but the majority of the officers that they were too busy

:19:04.:19:06.

holding hands across the football pitch. Some of them were looking in

:19:07.:19:12.

the pens and literally turned away, some were putting people back in the

:19:13.:19:21.

pens. Not only that, they carried on by lying, covering up, trying to

:19:22.:19:30.

blame the 96 and the survivors, but also accusing us families and the

:19:31.:19:37.

campaigners of actually lying. Now, as we know, there have been

:19:38.:19:43.

statements edited, amended, and I just think it is absolutely

:19:44.:19:47.

disgraceful that in a country like this where both myself and Andrew

:19:48.:19:52.

were brought up to respect the police, and we were taught that if

:19:53.:19:56.

we were in any trouble at all that the police were there to help us.

:19:57.:20:03.

Let me ask you this, Louise, if I may, a lot of people watching might

:20:04.:20:06.

have thought that the police were disgrace. Although that was a long

:20:07.:20:11.

time ago. Surely the key question now is, is that historic, whether

:20:12.:20:15.

the South Yorkshire Police force has changed or whether those attitudes

:20:16.:20:20.

are still endemic in the Force? Obviously I cannot speak for the

:20:21.:20:26.

other officers within the force. I can only speak in relation to the

:20:27.:20:33.

Chief Constable, and obviously by his actions, recently, and even when

:20:34.:20:37.

he accused usual Mac families and campaigners of lying,... Should he

:20:38.:20:43.

be sacked because he's been suspended. I do think so. Another

:20:44.:20:49.

thing I want to make clear is, not one police officer ever lost one

:20:50.:20:55.

day's pay due to Hillsborough. And as we know some of these high

:20:56.:21:01.

ranking officers as well as the PC sergeants, inspectors, they have

:21:02.:21:06.

retired on full pensions. My father had in breakdown and he never

:21:07.:21:12.

returned to work. And then my father had to live on what was classed as

:21:13.:21:17.

half a pension. And we did absolutely nothing wrong. The 96,

:21:18.:21:24.

our families, survivors, we did absolutely nothing wrong! These

:21:25.:21:31.

offices are living their lives, they have no shame, they just don't care,

:21:32.:21:40.

they are covering themselves constantly. And I really believe,

:21:41.:21:46.

that when you tell a Lie, and tell that life was so long you start

:21:47.:21:50.

believing it is the truth. Where will this end? Because potentially

:21:51.:21:57.

it could end in criminal charges, it could end with the disbanding of the

:21:58.:22:01.

South Yorkshire force. From your point of view what do you want to be

:22:02.:22:08.

the potential outcome -- the eventual outcome? I would like

:22:09.:22:11.

certain people to go to prison because in my opinion, criminal

:22:12.:22:19.

offences have occurred, also, if you think about South Yorkshire Police,

:22:20.:22:24.

I have never known a police force with such a bad reputation in my

:22:25.:22:31.

life. The miners strike, Hillsborough, Rotherham... It's just

:22:32.:22:37.

absolutely despicable. The country we live in, it shouldn't be

:22:38.:22:42.

happening in a country like this. It just should not. In the House of

:22:43.:22:48.

Commons yesterday Andy Burnham was saying that it wasn't just the

:22:49.:22:53.

police. There was a culture in the media, the establishment,

:22:54.:22:56.

Parliament. Do we now live in a different country, or are those

:22:57.:23:01.

attitudes in the press and amongst politicians that allowed this

:23:02.:23:06.

cover-up to happen still exist? I still think cover-ups go on but it

:23:07.:23:13.

is a bit more difficult to cover up. A prime example with the police for

:23:14.:23:18.

instance is, back in the 1980s, when people were interviewed, it was all

:23:19.:23:25.

done by witness statement and was no record of interviews. That has

:23:26.:23:31.

changed for the better. There are a minority of people who think they

:23:32.:23:37.

are above the law. And they think they can do things all get away with

:23:38.:23:48.

it. I think one thing is that your past will always catch up with you.

:23:49.:23:55.

And these people need to be accountable for their actions, or

:23:56.:23:59.

that lack of actions that day which sent 96 innocent people to their

:24:00.:24:03.

graves. For many people watching, one of the most extraordinary things

:24:04.:24:08.

about your story is the persistence and determination to keep going

:24:09.:24:17.

through those long years, through the odds against you, whether ever

:24:18.:24:20.

times when you thought, we'll have move on? Absolutely not. I don't

:24:21.:24:30.

know one single person within the families who ever thought that, who

:24:31.:24:33.

ever said that. Us Hillsborough families come from all over the

:24:34.:24:39.

country, from different backgrounds, different personalities, but we have

:24:40.:24:46.

such a unique bond, I am absolutely proud of every single family member,

:24:47.:24:50.

everything one of them. And do you know what, I would not have wanted

:24:51.:24:56.

to have fought this battle with any other 95 families. I am so proud of

:24:57.:25:03.

of them. We heard about how bruising and painful the inquest process was

:25:04.:25:07.

when the police almost seemed to disown their previous apology, again

:25:08.:25:11.

putting forward the stories about the behaviour of the fans. How

:25:12.:25:21.

difficult was that? Personally, for me, it is difficult but when you

:25:22.:25:27.

have been fighting, fighting these people for 27 years, sadly, you get

:25:28.:25:32.

used to it. Nothing shocks us Hillsborough families any more. And

:25:33.:25:37.

that is the sad thing about it. We are just used to it. We have done

:25:38.:25:49.

absolutely nothing wrong. The 96 survivors did absolutely nothing

:25:50.:25:56.

wrong. This is my personal opinion. This is what goes through my mind, I

:25:57.:25:59.

actually wonder if there is anything more sinister behind Hillsborough

:26:00.:26:08.

because I don't understand why people are so determined for the

:26:09.:26:12.

truth not to come out. I find that very, very difficult. We've had

:26:13.:26:20.

investigations in the past into different things like the Jimmy

:26:21.:26:23.

Savile case. And the truth has come out. But for some reason, people do

:26:24.:26:31.

not want the full truth. There have been suggestions about the

:26:32.:26:37.

Freemasons. Whether that had some sort of influence, do you think that

:26:38.:26:41.

was part of it? I definitely believe that. That is my personal opinion, I

:26:42.:26:46.

cannot speak for anyone else, any other families, that is my opinion.

:26:47.:26:53.

Louise, thank you so much, we really appreciate this. Thank you. An

:26:54.:26:58.

e-mail from Derek. He says, I think the police should be accountable for

:26:59.:27:01.

what happened at Hillsborough but what good is it in suspending the

:27:02.:27:05.

Chief Constable of South Yorkshire? He had nothing to do with

:27:06.:27:09.

Hillsborough. It is those who were involved that should be tried. One

:27:10.:27:16.

tweet says that South Yorkshire Police are a disgrace with lies and

:27:17.:27:20.

covering up and nothing to be proud of. A text message from Allison, can

:27:21.:27:25.

someone say publicly that many of the officers serving in the South

:27:26.:27:28.

Yorkshire Police to date have nothing to do with this disaster.

:27:29.:27:32.

Many of them were not born of them. They are not the ones rotten to the

:27:33.:27:37.

core. How can they do their jobs now with all this hatred towards their

:27:38.:27:41.

force? And e-mail message from Robert, making one mistake doesn't

:27:42.:27:45.

make you bad at your job. Also you can't take an incident in isolation.

:27:46.:27:51.

There was a lot of bad behaviour by football hooligans at the time of

:27:52.:27:55.

Hillsborough and this cannot but influence the behaviour of police.

:27:56.:27:59.

That is not to excuse the police but neither should they take all the

:28:00.:28:03.

blame. Tweet from Russell, Hillsborough shows a culture of

:28:04.:28:09.

cover-up and deceit does exist. Another area of concern is the

:28:10.:28:16.

activities of social services. Still to come. Almost half of children in

:28:17.:28:20.

care or living with foster parents have a mental health disorder. We

:28:21.:28:25.

will hear some of their stories and talk to people trying to make a

:28:26.:28:30.

difference. And should expats who have lived outside the UK figures be

:28:31.:28:35.

allowed to vote in the EU referendum? We'll bring you the

:28:36.:28:38.

latest on a court judgment to decide if they can.

:28:39.:28:45.

Well, more on that in a few minutes -- but first here's Annita

:28:46.:28:59.

in the BBC Newsroom with a summary of the rest of the day's news.

:29:00.:29:02.

The Labour Party has a serious problem with anti-semitism,

:29:03.:29:04.

according to one of its most high profile peers.

:29:05.:29:06.

Lord Levy was speaking following the suspension

:29:07.:29:08.

of the Labour MP, Naz Shah, for comments she made about Israel

:29:09.:29:11.

She has apologised, but the peer said people were increasingly

:29:12.:29:14.

using attacks on Israel as a way of showing their hatred

:29:15.:29:17.

A group of economists will say today that leaving the European Union

:29:18.:29:21.

would benefit Britain's financial services sector - and could lead

:29:22.:29:23.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister and the former

:29:24.:29:26.

leader of the TUC, Sir Brendan Barber, have set

:29:27.:29:28.

aside their political differences to write an article

:29:29.:29:30.

for the Guardian, arguing the case for staying IN the European Union.

:29:31.:29:36.

A group of MPs says many children in care are falling

:29:37.:29:39.

through the cracks when it comes to their mental health.

:29:40.:29:47.

The Education Select Committee found that almost half

:29:48.:29:49.

of children who are looked after by local authorities or in

:29:50.:29:51.

foster care, have a diagnosable mental health disorder.

:29:52.:29:53.

The MPs say children in care are four times more

:29:54.:29:56.

likely than their peers to have a mental health condition.

:29:57.:30:01.

Smokers should be encouraged to switch to e-cigarettes to help

:30:02.:30:03.

them quit, according to a report by the Royal College of Physicans.

:30:04.:30:06.

It says its findings lay to rest nearly all the concerns

:30:07.:30:09.

The report also says that fears that e-cigarettes are gateway to smoking

:30:10.:30:21.

are unfounded. Philip Hammond is due to arrive

Does the Labour Party have an anti-semitism problem?

:33:38.:33:39.

The MP for Bradford Naz Shah was suspended from Labour yesterday

:33:40.:33:43.

for comments she made on social media about Israel -

:33:44.:33:46.

Tom Bateman is our Poltical Correspondent

:33:47.:33:49.

She says that the comments were made before she was an MP, but the

:33:50.:33:59.

comments have since been taken down, and now what you have is a situation

:34:00.:34:04.

where it has really come a test of Jeremy Corbyn is leadership. Is he

:34:05.:34:11.

really have a grip on this issue that many people are now saying of

:34:12.:34:18.

anti-Semitism in the Labour Party? Lord Levy, a fundraiser under Tony

:34:19.:34:24.

Blair, says the party has a problem. And is it taking the Corbyn

:34:25.:34:27.

leadership to long to do anything about it? So you have to things

:34:28.:34:38.

going on, the questions over Naz Shah herself and whether she will be

:34:39.:34:42.

expelled, but more fundamentally, questions about Mr Corbyn's

:34:43.:34:46.

leadership and whether he did enough, quickly enough, to tackle

:34:47.:34:51.

this, and others, like Lord Levy are saying that he should have added or

:34:52.:34:54.

quickly. Thank you very much indeed.

:34:55.:34:58.

Joining me now from Westminster is the Labour MP John Mann -

:34:59.:35:00.

who's also Chair of the All-Party Group Against AntiSemitism -

:35:01.:35:03.

and in the studio Richard Angell, director of the Labour thinktank

:35:04.:35:05.

Progress, and Rabbi Laura Janner-Klausner, senior

:35:06.:35:07.

John, I heard you yesterday saying that Naz Shah should go to Israel.

:35:08.:35:20.

Is she being scapegoated for stupid remarks? They are stupid remarks,

:35:21.:35:27.

but they are also racist remarks and highly offensive. Either she is

:35:28.:35:37.

thrown out, or she is educated about anti-Semitism and the offence she

:35:38.:35:41.

has created. You think she should be thrown out, expelled? That is John

:35:42.:35:46.

McDonnell's line on this. They are the two options. What I have

:35:47.:35:51.

recommended, and I did so before she was suspended to Jeremy Corbyn, and

:35:52.:35:58.

to her rectory, that she should be a GK to do in anti-Semitism in order

:35:59.:36:02.

that she could be one of the people who fights it, and that should

:36:03.:36:06.

include, and I have asked Jeremy Corbyn to do this, that she should

:36:07.:36:11.

go to Israel, to the Holocaust Centre, and also to Sid rot where

:36:12.:36:14.

the missiles from Hamas hit families, to get a better

:36:15.:36:22.

understanding of Israel, and why her remarks are so offensive. Can I ask

:36:23.:36:25.

you this blunt question. You believe she is an anti-Semite? Her remarks

:36:26.:36:32.

are anti-Semitic. We can do two things with her anybody else in the

:36:33.:36:37.

Labour Party or elsewhere. We can castigate and ignore them, or we can

:36:38.:36:41.

educate them. Prejudice comes from ignorance, and the best counter to

:36:42.:36:46.

prejudice is education, and that is what she seems willing and happy to

:36:47.:36:51.

engage, that is a good sign. Let me bring in Rabbi Laura. You know Naz

:36:52.:36:57.

Shah. Do you believe she is an anti-Semite? No, I don't. I agree

:36:58.:37:02.

with John that the posts were anti-Semitic. They swapped Israel

:37:03.:37:08.

and Jews, they were awful, they were terrible. I am certain that she is

:37:09.:37:14.

up for a change in learning, and from the point of view of a

:37:15.:37:19.

modelling change in Britain, that is excellent, to say, I was wrong, I am

:37:20.:37:24.

sorry, I offended many people, and she details what was wrong. If only

:37:25.:37:29.

we could all do that in our lives, because we know that racism and

:37:30.:37:33.

anti-Semitism, homophobia, they are all out there, and when somebody

:37:34.:37:38.

saying something doing something wrong, if they have the courage and

:37:39.:37:42.

the integrity to say, I really was wrong and I am up for learning, and

:37:43.:37:47.

I agree with John, I would love to take Naz Shah to Israel, to the

:37:48.:37:52.

territories, not just to the Holocaust Museum, down into the

:37:53.:37:55.

street to hang out in a cafe, because that is how you learn about

:37:56.:38:00.

normality. The backdrop to this is the Labour Party more broadly,

:38:01.:38:03.

because this is not the first time we have had a row about

:38:04.:38:07.

anti-Semitism. We have investigations into various Labour

:38:08.:38:10.

university clubs. Do you think Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party has a

:38:11.:38:15.

problem with anti-Semitism? Undoubtedly it has a problem with

:38:16.:38:18.

anti-Semitism, and the inaction when these things come about, and how

:38:19.:38:22.

quickly they are dealt with, is troubling for people. People fear

:38:23.:38:25.

that when people like Ken Livingstone said they have never

:38:26.:38:28.

heard or seen anti-Semitism in the Labour Party, they wonder what part

:38:29.:38:36.

of the party he is part of. But is it inaction? To be fair to Mr

:38:37.:38:44.

Corbyn, he set up an inquiry into anti-Semitism in various Labour

:38:45.:38:47.

clubs, he was straight out of the blocks in condemning what Naz Shah

:38:48.:38:54.

has said. She was removed, as John McDonnell's Parliamentary aide, and

:38:55.:38:57.

at the end of the day, she was suspended. All that happened in

:38:58.:39:03.

24-hour is. There was a bit of the space between them. Had the process

:39:04.:39:07.

been followed, she would have been immediately suspended, that then

:39:08.:39:12.

gone to an investigation, and my understanding is it was part of the

:39:13.:39:16.

leaders office that was holding back that formal process just being

:39:17.:39:19.

administered by the staff at the normal way. So there is often a

:39:20.:39:23.

hesitation before these things happen, I'm afraid. I fear there are

:39:24.:39:28.

too many political judgments that seem to be made and rather than feel

:39:29.:39:32.

confident in our party, people say wrong things. Sometimes we attract

:39:33.:39:38.

as a party people who misbehave, but the point is, when these situations

:39:39.:39:42.

happen, you have to act to agreed rules. Our agreed rules are not good

:39:43.:39:47.

enough at the moment, but they are not even followed when something

:39:48.:39:51.

like this comes up. Let me put this to you, much of the row as a

:39:52.:39:55.

surrogate for a row about Jeremy Corbyn, because he is identified as

:39:56.:40:06.

similarly, so it is wrapped up in the tension around his leadership. I

:40:07.:40:12.

have been talking about this for years, on the BBC as well, and this

:40:13.:40:18.

isn't a new problem. This is an old problem that is resurrected in quite

:40:19.:40:22.

a big way. Social media is one factor, but what leadership has to

:40:23.:40:28.

be is to say the right things, but also to act, and critically, there

:40:29.:40:33.

needs to be an effective education programme across the Labour Party

:40:34.:40:39.

about anti-Semitism, what it is, so that people understand what is

:40:40.:40:46.

offensive and why it is offensive. Yesterday, I was getting e-mails

:40:47.:40:49.

that said, you can't be racist against Jews because they are rich.

:40:50.:40:54.

That is coming from people on the left. Some quite extraordinary

:40:55.:40:58.

stuff. The levels of prejudice and ignorance are very high. From the

:40:59.:41:03.

perspective of the Jewish community, how damaging is this to Labour? To

:41:04.:41:12.

Labour, I think it is damaging, and people are frightened, which is why

:41:13.:41:15.

I think the reaction of both repentance and also the suspension

:41:16.:41:19.

are good. And I don't think it is just about the Labour Party, we need

:41:20.:41:23.

to look across the board at all parties, and not just the political

:41:24.:41:27.

institutions. The language that is slipping in in the general public

:41:28.:41:31.

around Jews, around Muslims, needs to be called out, so I am concerned

:41:32.:41:37.

that it is very easy to deflect it on the Labour Party rather than to

:41:38.:41:41.

say, what does it mean to Britain that we are further away from World

:41:42.:41:45.

War II, and the language between Israel and Jews gets muddled up, and

:41:46.:41:50.

what we saw two years ago, the wall between Hamas and Israel, the

:41:51.:41:55.

language that exploded on social media, that is not to do with the

:41:56.:41:59.

Labour Party, and that is why I think the Naz Shah thing is

:42:00.:42:02.

interesting, because what she did is utterly wrong, and now she is

:42:03.:42:06.

saying, I'm sorry. That is a very good model. Richard, let me ask you

:42:07.:42:11.

one more question on the Labour Party. You talked about how Labour

:42:12.:42:14.

had taken their time to deal with this. Is part of it again because of

:42:15.:42:20.

the Palestinian/ Israel political argument, and bluntly, Naz Shah was

:42:21.:42:26.

seen, is seen, as on the same side as Jeremy Corbyn, and therefore

:42:27.:42:29.

maybe there was a reluctance to crack down on her? I think that is

:42:30.:42:34.

true. One of the reasons I have always liked Naz Shah is how much

:42:35.:42:38.

George Galloway hates her, lots of things spoken in a passionate way,

:42:39.:42:42.

she has experienced social injustice in a way I have always found quite

:42:43.:42:50.

inspiring, which is why I was so disappointed but her words have been

:42:51.:42:52.

useful in that she seeks to do something better, and John is being

:42:53.:42:56.

helpful by saying, let's see the action and not just the words. Laura

:42:57.:43:01.

was generous about the Labour Party, but the reason why this is a

:43:02.:43:05.

problem, and members like me are so appalled by this, is we pride

:43:06.:43:08.

ourselves on being the anti-racist party. We are the party that fights

:43:09.:43:16.

social injustice, and what we cannot have is people turning a blind eye.

:43:17.:43:20.

While there are lots to criticise Israel, many of them Israel people,

:43:21.:43:33.

when they conflate Israel and Jews, that must be called out, and more

:43:34.:43:36.

importantly, British Jews must not be held responsible for a country

:43:37.:43:40.

they may never have visited or be part of. And what I see on my

:43:41.:43:46.

timeline, on Twitter, is that people seem to think all Jews are

:43:47.:43:49.

responsible for various bad things that happen elsewhere. We are going

:43:50.:43:56.

to have to leave it there. Coming up, are you a smoker? Some doctors

:43:57.:44:00.

are saying you should be offered and encouraged to use e-cigarettes to

:44:01.:44:04.

help you quit, because they are so much better than conventional

:44:05.:44:07.

cigarettes. Let us know if you have used them. And we will try and

:44:08.:44:10.

discuss that later. Many children in care are already

:44:11.:44:16.

extremely vulnerable and now a group of MPs says they are falling

:44:17.:44:19.

through the cracks when it comes The education select committee found

:44:20.:44:22.

that almost half of children who are looked after by local

:44:23.:44:29.

authorities or in foster care have a diagnosable mental health

:44:30.:44:31.

disorder, with kids in care four times more likely than their peers

:44:32.:44:34.

to have a mental health condition. We can speak to Daniel Harris,

:44:35.:44:40.

who's in our Brighton studio. Daniel spent time in care and has

:44:41.:44:44.

recently been diagnosed Here with me is Paul Jenkins,

:44:45.:44:46.

the Vice-Chair of the Cavendish Square Group which looks after some

:44:47.:44:53.

of the mental health services in London, Natasha Devon who advises

:44:54.:44:59.

the Government on young Natasha, a fairly shocking picture

:45:00.:45:14.

painted in this report, when you recognise? Yes, we know attachment

:45:15.:45:18.

is incredibly important for good mental health. We mean by that the

:45:19.:45:23.

relationship you have with your caregiver, while parent, it forms a

:45:24.:45:28.

blueprint for all your future relationships. Neuroscientists

:45:29.:45:31.

believe that if you don't have good attachment in early life it can

:45:32.:45:35.

affect cognitive development. So children in care who have been two

:45:36.:45:39.

different foster families are far more vulnerable to mental illnesses

:45:40.:45:43.

because of affects their cognitive development. Within wider population

:45:44.:45:47.

it is one in ten young people who have a mental illness, in looked

:45:48.:45:52.

after children, it is half, so it is far more within that community. The

:45:53.:45:56.

difficult thing for people to understand is, you would think that

:45:57.:46:01.

children coming from dysfunctional homes, Rogan Holmes, who have moved

:46:02.:46:06.

around a lot, -- broken homes, they of course will be more vulnerable to

:46:07.:46:11.

mental health issues. So why are alarm bells not ringing more loudly

:46:12.:46:16.

when it comes to children in care and mental health? We have known for

:46:17.:46:20.

a long time about the much greater incidence of mental health problems

:46:21.:46:25.

among children who have been looked after like this, and the reasons why

:46:26.:46:31.

it happens, as Natasha explains, are widely known. I think for one, the

:46:32.:46:35.

pressure on services raising the threshold that only those with the

:46:36.:46:38.

most acute problems are being seen but also in some services, which at

:46:39.:46:50.

this particular population. We know from experience in London that there

:46:51.:46:53.

are good things you can do about it, some good services have this and do

:46:54.:47:02.

good work among children. Who should ring the alarm bells, teachers, for

:47:03.:47:07.

example, who should be the person to identify about a problem? Good

:47:08.:47:13.

mental health services for young people work at two levels, one by

:47:14.:47:18.

having the right set of skills amongst everyday organisations to

:47:19.:47:22.

support those young people, so if it is looked after children, social

:47:23.:47:24.

workers who are working with their foster carers or adopted parents,

:47:25.:47:30.

but also would then have the ability to fast track problems into formal

:47:31.:47:37.

services when they arise. A very good model is what we do in Camden,

:47:38.:47:45.

where we have clinicians working with individual schools, building

:47:46.:47:49.

relationships, and helping to build the sense of trust between teachers

:47:50.:47:55.

and others in those schools. Daniel, let me bring you in. You have been

:47:56.:48:00.

through the care system. I think you had post-traumatic stress disorder?

:48:01.:48:07.

It was not identified. What was your experience in terms of the support

:48:08.:48:09.

that you were offered or not offered? I wasn't offered any,

:48:10.:48:17.

actually. Which is quite sad. 25 years it has taken for me to get a

:48:18.:48:23.

diagnosis. I've just gone through a process that many kids who leave

:48:24.:48:26.

care nowadays go through, you can get access to your historic files,

:48:27.:48:32.

by getting access to my files, what I've found is, it is actually

:48:33.:48:35.

written within my files that there was no funding available. And while

:48:36.:48:40.

this was historic, I am really worried about some of the cuts being

:48:41.:48:46.

pushed by the government, and how this will affect some of the care

:48:47.:48:52.

leavers today. What actually happened to you? I was sexually

:48:53.:48:56.

abused. My mother and father were previously looked after children so

:48:57.:49:00.

we were considered vulnerable family. And part of the safeguarding

:49:01.:49:07.

of children is that I was taken into care, on a temporary basis. This

:49:08.:49:13.

happened throughout my life. But I had a very good care experience, I

:49:14.:49:16.

had good foster parents and I have some good memories from that.

:49:17.:49:22.

Natasha, Daniel mentioned funding. Is it bluntly initial resources, we

:49:23.:49:27.

know that in the austerity and there has been cutting back, cutting back,

:49:28.:49:33.

is this an issue of austerity or awareness? Both, I would say. When a

:49:34.:49:39.

historically mental health has only had 0.7% of the NHS budget despite

:49:40.:49:43.

the fact that one in three GP visits is for a mental health issue.

:49:44.:49:48.

Because it can't be seen and is not considered urgent. There's a great

:49:49.:49:58.

organisation in Braintree called the Foyer which looks after young

:49:59.:50:02.

adults, give them a place to sleep, teachers and social skills, cookery,

:50:03.:50:06.

CB skills. That is in danger of being closed by the local council.

:50:07.:50:12.

-- CV skills. I can think of 200 things I would sacrifice in Essex

:50:13.:50:16.

before I sacrificed about that because most of the time we don't

:50:17.:50:20.

hear from you people like this, it is easy to silence them so well done

:50:21.:50:23.

for inviting this young man on the show. Again and again it is stressed

:50:24.:50:29.

that mental health is being given increased priority so how can this

:50:30.:50:33.

happen at a time when the government is apparently trying to divert focus

:50:34.:50:36.

from physical well-being to mental well-being. I think in the last five

:50:37.:50:43.

years we've seen a tremendous change in society in our attitudes towards

:50:44.:50:47.

mental health, but greater awareness for people to share their stories.

:50:48.:50:52.

This is beginning, I stress, beginning to change attitudes,

:50:53.:50:55.

politicians are seeing this as a priority. I think it is hard work to

:50:56.:51:00.

shift the funding. This is a point we've ridged, you can't talk in

:51:01.:51:04.

public about mental health being a priority if you don't back up your

:51:05.:51:07.

actions by the level of funding it attracts. Daniel, you are nodding.

:51:08.:51:14.

I've read the report and I want to stress that it says that 50% of

:51:15.:51:18.

children in care or leaving care have mental health disorders at the

:51:19.:51:23.

moment. And these are going pretty much undiagnosed. One thing is when

:51:24.:51:28.

the report, it's going the right way, there is support for previously

:51:29.:51:33.

looked after children and the age of 25, that's the recommendation put in

:51:34.:51:37.

place, I am partial and about kids that are in care and then getting

:51:38.:51:43.

the right support but lets face it, 23% of adult prisoners have been in

:51:44.:51:50.

care. That's 21,000 people currently in the prison system that were in

:51:51.:51:54.

care. We need to start asking questions, why is a society are we

:51:55.:51:58.

allowing this? It's definitely something we need to focus on. It

:51:59.:52:04.

costs ?65,000 a year to keep a prisoner in prison. Over 21,000

:52:05.:52:09.

people, that is ?1.5 billion again spent when we could be taking that

:52:10.:52:14.

money and investing it in to mental health services and getting the

:52:15.:52:19.

support early, not when it is too late and these people are pretty

:52:20.:52:26.

much left voice less in society. Natasha, given that there are huge

:52:27.:52:31.

savings to society and huge savings cost wise, you are sitting in

:52:32.:52:36.

government, what do you do to try to ensure that those savings can be

:52:37.:52:40.

achieved and to rectify the problem? If you had to list three bullet

:52:41.:52:45.

points to do what would they be? To make it clear, I don't work for the

:52:46.:52:50.

government although I do advise the Department for Education about how

:52:51.:52:54.

we can work at a preventative level. This is what Daniel is saying, we

:52:55.:52:58.

need to identify children who are vulnerable and give them the extra

:52:59.:53:01.

support they need as early as possible. Mental health is something

:53:02.:53:05.

we should think about from birth in the same way that we think about

:53:06.:53:10.

physical health. The way that mental health problems often manifest in

:53:11.:53:14.

later life is criminal activity, as Daniel says. At that point you are

:53:15.:53:19.

looking at a huge cost to that individual and to society so

:53:20.:53:22.

prevention, prevention, prevention, are my three bullet points. Same

:53:23.:53:30.

thought? Just one second, Daniel! There has been money promised for

:53:31.:53:33.

children and young People's mental health services. What the

:53:34.:53:37.

politicians need to make sure happens is that money translates

:53:38.:53:40.

into real further investment in front line services, like some of

:53:41.:53:43.

the ones that we run that screening in some borrowers, all looked after

:53:44.:53:50.

children for mental health issues, reaching out to those young people

:53:51.:53:54.

from specialist services. Daniel, if you had had your hands on the levers

:53:55.:53:58.

of power at what would you have done? I would make sure that there

:53:59.:54:05.

are regular checks and mental health assessments, psychological

:54:06.:54:07.

assessments, I would make sure all children in care are offered this

:54:08.:54:11.

service. Potentially throughout their life or their stay within the

:54:12.:54:16.

care system. That will give us an opportunity to get in the early. We

:54:17.:54:19.

can also look at other options. One thing that I'm trying to do is bring

:54:20.:54:25.

more of a holistic approach to mental health. I'm passionate about

:54:26.:54:29.

singing and music and one thing that I have done recently, I was inspired

:54:30.:54:36.

to going to a recent event, there were 700 children there, who are

:54:37.:54:41.

currently in the care system, and we formed a choir called Voices Matter.

:54:42.:54:46.

We want to work with care leavers and get them involved in that.

:54:47.:54:50.

There's a lot of emotional expression, these young adults need

:54:51.:54:55.

to get out. If we can get them and offer alternative approaches, I

:54:56.:55:01.

think this would really help these looked after children. Daniel, thank

:55:02.:55:04.

you! There's a promotion for Daniel. In just a few weeks' time we will

:55:05.:55:11.

get our say on whether Britain should remain in or leave

:55:12.:55:14.

the European Union. But what about British citizens

:55:15.:55:16.

who have lived abroad in other European countries

:55:17.:55:18.

for more than 15 years? Should they be able to vote

:55:19.:55:20.

in the EU referendum? Jacqueline Maclennan was one of the

:55:21.:55:50.

expats to bring the case, why should you be able to vote when you don't

:55:51.:55:55.

live in Britain? The vote is fundamental and taking away some

:55:56.:55:59.

on's folk should only be done in circumstances where there is reason

:56:00.:56:04.

for that. -- vote should be kept. Although I have been living in

:56:05.:56:08.

Belgium for 15 years I am rooted in the UK and deeply connected to it.

:56:09.:56:11.

And many UK citizens in my position are

:56:12.:56:24.

the same. My family are still in Scotland and our holiday there. I

:56:25.:56:28.

have three children, brought up in Belgium, two of them are studied in

:56:29.:56:33.

the UK and currently reside there, and my daughter, the third, hopes to

:56:34.:56:38.

go to the UK the University next. Isn't the difficulty that somewhere

:56:39.:56:42.

you have to draw the line because you could say, if you left button 50

:56:43.:56:47.

years ago or your aunt is British, the government has to draw a line

:56:48.:56:52.

somewhere, do you accept that? -- if you left Britain 50 years ago. I

:56:53.:56:57.

accept that there may be justification for drawing a line but

:56:58.:57:01.

this government has said that drawing a line where the line has

:57:02.:57:05.

been drawn is arbitrary. It has in fact said -- it is in fact said -

:57:06.:57:18.

the government has said if you choose 15 years and is like sticking

:57:19.:57:24.

a dart in a dart board, why not 14 or 13 years 16? There is something

:57:25.:57:27.

really wrong when the results of choosing that date is to take a

:57:28.:57:32.

fundamental right away from citizens who are, as I say, deeply connected

:57:33.:57:40.

to the UK. People like me are not a nebulous expat that has severed all

:57:41.:57:49.

ties to the UK and has no wish to maintain my rights and obligations

:57:50.:57:55.

to the UK. Where I pay tax, where I have these strong connections, as I

:57:56.:58:00.

say, I believe I should also have the right to vote. We will leave it

:58:01.:58:04.

there, thank you, Jacqueline. Now the latest weather update with Phil.

:58:05.:58:11.

I am sure we can manage whether expectations, forget the May bank

:58:12.:58:16.

holiday, or January, it's much the same sort of tail with winter

:58:17.:58:20.

showers overnight in Lancashire, is the good news to report, there has

:58:21.:58:24.

been sunshine further east in the British Isles, a foggy start but the

:58:25.:58:30.

transformation, and it will be quite some transformation, it will come in

:58:31.:58:34.

the shape of a southern weather front spreading rain or snow.

:58:35.:58:38.

Spreading snow ever further towards the east. It's already that way

:58:39.:58:42.

across western Scotland. It's miserable there at the moment. You

:58:43.:58:46.

will see a progression of these weather fronts further towards the

:58:47.:58:50.

east and south as we get through the day. Not all doom and gloom, we have

:58:51.:58:54.

had persistent stuff, then wintry showers falling behind for parts of

:58:55.:58:58.

Northern Ireland, or a hint of brightness, but the top end of

:58:59.:59:01.

Northern Ireland, a mixture of sunshine and showers, but, and it is

:59:02.:59:08.

a big but, this will stretch away towards the Lothians, down into the

:59:09.:59:11.

Borders, the top end of the Pennines, and then we come to

:59:12.:59:14.

something a little drier all the windows that bright start across

:59:15.:59:18.

East Anglia, holding it in Kent until late in the day, you will not

:59:19.:59:22.

see rain here until later in the afternoon but when the rain is with

:59:23.:59:25.

you and it is there to be had this afternoon across the south-west,

:59:26.:59:29.

rain and the Midlands, miserable fare. Wendy, cold, five, six, seven,

:59:30.:59:35.

8 degrees, and the rain sticks around for awhile. It's not so much

:59:36.:59:38.

the rain that I'm concerned about for many of you, it's the

:59:39.:59:42.

persistence the snow. The weather front sticks until Friday. Look at

:59:43.:59:48.

this. Another of isobars, some of the snow could blow around. By this

:59:49.:59:52.

stage some of the threat has transferred from eastern Scotland to

:59:53.:59:55.

the south-east of Scotland to the north-east of England. If you were

:59:56.:59:58.

thinking of the cycle ride in Yorkshire tomorrow, so are we

:59:59.:00:02.

although probably not for the same reasons! It is wet and it could well

:00:03.:00:07.

be lying snow on the ground and there's a gale force northerly, and

:00:08.:00:12.

that system keeps it miserably cold. With that threat of further snow, we

:00:13.:00:20.

are talking centimetres across here, elsewhere, sunny spells and showers.

:00:21.:00:24.

Relief from the misery on Saturday, sunshine and showers and at least

:00:25.:00:27.

some of those figures are beginning to reach double figures. Will it

:00:28.:00:33.

last? It worked. Any set of fronts arrived with the best of the

:00:34.:00:35.

sunshine across the south-east. Hello, I'm Norman Smith

suspended to Jeremy Corbyn, and to her directly, personally, is that

health. The education select committee found that almost half of

the British cycling and UK sport investigation. We know that there is

also the fire fighting going on at the moment at the organisation since

and while the families of the Hillsborough victims

celebrated the conclusions, the focus is now on South Yorkshire

Police and whether there Despite the criticism of the police,

Steering stuff. You have been sending in more of your comment is

on Hillsborough. Roger: What happened at this football ground was

:12:24.:12:26.

terrible. The authorities were found wanting for sure. It was clear by

:12:27.:12:30.

footage shown that there appears to have been no violence from the fans,

:12:31.:12:34.

but serious mistakes were made by the authorities. There was a huge

:12:35.:12:39.

cover-up of the true facts, and that must only have come from the top.

:12:40.:12:44.

But in the 1980s, football fans didn't have a good reputation with

:12:45.:12:47.

the authorities due to the violence at some matches. It is because of

:12:48.:12:52.

this violence, which was common at this time, that the grounds had

:12:53.:12:57.

these awful fences installed. I cannot get out of my mind that if

:12:58.:13:01.

these fences were not there, this disaster would never have happened,

:13:02.:13:04.

so could some blame be laid at the feet of those fans who were

:13:05.:13:11.

irresponsible for this violence? Maria says, emotional scenes in

We have had the suspension of the Chief Constable, the Home

:13:28.:13:44.

Secretary's statement, the damning verdict at the inquest. What more do

:13:45.:13:53.

you and the families want? I think now may be the time to take a step

:13:54.:13:58.

back and look at the general problems, some of which remain,

:13:59.:14:03.

which led not just of the disaster, but to the cover-up. Firstly there

:14:04.:14:08.

is the problem within South Yorkshire Police, which seems to

:14:09.:14:11.

continue, where they failed to accept their responsibility, and

:14:12.:14:16.

indeed are prepared to lie to cover up their own conduct. And this is an

:14:17.:14:23.

overriding problem, not just for South Yorkshire Police, but

:14:24.:14:26.

generally for organisations, a ten nation to not confess your mistakes

:14:27.:14:30.

but cover up things have gone wrong and protect colleagues, that is all

:14:31.:14:35.

too strong, and we need to develop a system to fight the temptation. And

:14:36.:14:42.

how do you do that? You can understand in most organisations

:14:43.:14:45.

there is a tendency to be defensive when you are under attack, so how do

:14:46.:14:49.

you counter that temptation to cover-up? What you need to have is a

:14:50.:14:54.

deep rooted sense of ethical behaviour. Police forces nationally

:14:55.:14:59.

do now have a code of ethics, they have had one for a couple of years,

:15:00.:15:03.

it is still taking some time to bed in, but for a colleague to say I

:15:04.:15:08.

will support you in everything I do up to the point where you act

:15:09.:15:12.

illegally, in morally or unethically, and then that support

:15:13.:15:18.

goes. It is not impossible for everyone in an organisation to

:15:19.:15:21.

accept that, to accept that there is an overriding moral code. Mike

:15:22.:15:26.

Pannett, from a police perspective, do you accept the criticism now

:15:27.:15:32.

being levelled at the South Yorkshire Police, in particular for

:15:33.:15:35.

the fact that at the inquest, it seemed there were almost going back

:15:36.:15:39.

on a previous apology and continuing to take the stance they took the

:15:40.:15:43.

time of original tragedy? Hello, Norman. I have just listened to the

:15:44.:15:50.

Merseyside, the families there, singing that song, and that brought

:15:51.:15:55.

emotion to me. I have been a lifelong football fan, but there are

:15:56.:15:59.

two or three strands to this. Firstly we had the events leading up

:16:00.:16:02.

to that football match. Should the ground have been used? Then we saw

:16:03.:16:06.

what happened at that match, and the disastrous consequences. Following

:16:07.:16:15.

that, we saw what now is a cover-up by South Yorkshire Police officers

:16:16.:16:20.

at the time, and that has catastrophic consequences for the

:16:21.:16:24.

police. But look at the third strand, which is really important,

:16:25.:16:29.

too, and we must discuss this. Where have the police gone subsequently?

:16:30.:16:34.

We saw Lord Justice Taylor, we have seen the massive improvements with

:16:35.:16:40.

safety at football matches. Back in the 80s, at the time, the policing

:16:41.:16:45.

focus was on crowd disorder. But now, thankfully, it is on crowd

:16:46.:16:49.

safety, and we have safety advisory groups set up, we have the Green

:16:50.:16:54.

guide which looks at monitoring foot or matches, the amount of people

:16:55.:16:58.

going in, so if anything good has come out of this absolute tragedy,

:16:59.:17:02.

it is that we are in a different place altogether. Police officers at

:17:03.:17:07.

these matches are trained to a national level, and the whole aspect

:17:08.:17:11.

of how we handle these sporting events has changed for the good, and

:17:12.:17:17.

that is the one, only thing that I am really grateful from those

:17:18.:17:20.

Eikan is this question that South Yorkshire Police are almost a rogue

:17:21.:17:36.

force. I can say this because Andy Burnham said in the Commons

:17:37.:17:40.

yesterday that it was not just Hillsborough, it was Rotherham and

:17:41.:17:45.

other places, so are we dealing with a force that has particular

:17:46.:17:51.

problems? I think to an extent we are. The behaviour of the suspended

:17:52.:17:55.

Chief Constable Mr Crompton indicates that he's still quite

:17:56.:17:59.

happy to peddle lies even after they have been disproved. I am sorry my

:18:00.:18:07.

earpiece is coming out! I also think there is a problem endemic to not

:18:08.:18:12.

just police forces but organisations generally that we need to look at.

:18:13.:18:19.

From the South Yorkshire perspective, if you live in South

:18:20.:18:22.

Yorkshire are a suspect you will have serious questions about the

:18:23.:18:27.

policing you receive. Is there a case for either rebranding or even

:18:28.:18:33.

disbanding the South Yorkshire force, reconstituting it, maybe

:18:34.:18:35.

putting it together with other forces? We must be really careful.

:18:36.:18:43.

If we are talking about Hillsborough, like I've said before

:18:44.:18:48.

in interviews I've given, these people, anybody, no matter what

:18:49.:18:53.

rank, anywhere in proven to have committed an offence must face the

:18:54.:18:57.

consequences. Although we have to be very careful. There are men and

:18:58.:19:02.

women in South Yorkshire Police, I have never worked in South Yorkshire

:19:03.:19:06.

but I know a lot of very decent men and women will work within the South

:19:07.:19:09.

Yorkshire Police. Remember that when Hillsborough happened a lot of those

:19:10.:19:16.

officers and staff working for South Yorkshire Police were not even born.

:19:17.:19:21.

We are talking about 27 years later. Things have improved, quite rightly.

:19:22.:19:26.

I am absolutely all for learning from these lessons from the pastoral

:19:27.:19:31.

we cannot tar everyone with the same brush and there are decent men and

:19:32.:19:35.

women who not even born when Hillsborough happened and they are

:19:36.:19:38.

feeling this personally, they are the ones going out and putting on

:19:39.:19:42.

their stab proof vests and facing the public and dealing with

:19:43.:19:47.

difficult situations so we must be very careful to make sure that all

:19:48.:19:50.

the South Yorkshire Police, decent men and women... I think that one of

:19:51.:19:56.

the many reasons that people have been shocked is because of the

:19:57.:20:01.

conduct of the force at the inquests when it seemed that they were almost

:20:02.:20:05.

reinventing many of the allegations about the fans. That has led to the

:20:06.:20:10.

accusation that maybe attitudes have not changed, at least at the top of

:20:11.:20:17.

the police force. And then we had that posted message from retired

:20:18.:20:21.

officers today and it suggests a lack of awareness, sends the gravity

:20:22.:20:28.

of this. -- a sense of the gravity of this. What has saddened me, we

:20:29.:20:36.

have looked at Hillsborough and we had another review that did not pick

:20:37.:20:40.

up the those poor families have had to endure 27 families to get to the

:20:41.:20:45.

truth... 27 years to get to the truth, and now quite rightly anyone

:20:46.:20:48.

who has done wrong should face charges although it does get me, why

:20:49.:20:54.

are we still in this situation with the police and just admit that

:20:55.:20:59.

mistakes were made and that they saw the disastrous consequences, instead

:21:00.:21:03.

of just admitting, we have made a mistake, let's put it right. Too

:21:04.:21:12.

often people are terrified of litigation and terrified of saying

:21:13.:21:17.

things that cannot be right. We as a country need to take a look at

:21:18.:21:21.

ourselves. If someone has done something wrong they should be able

:21:22.:21:25.

to put up their hands and say, we got it wrong. Eikan, you mentioned

:21:26.:21:33.

the need for transparency and greater willingness to concede when

:21:34.:21:36.

things have gone wrong, let me mention some specifics, the Chief

:21:37.:21:39.

Constable has been suspended, should he go? He should be subject to

:21:40.:21:47.

rigorous objective impartial investigation, the kind that was

:21:48.:21:50.

denied to the families for so long, and of that investigation feels he

:21:51.:21:55.

should be dismissed then he should. In terms of charges we know there's

:21:56.:21:59.

an investigation underway and allsorts of charges could be

:22:00.:22:04.

brought, the likelihood of them being brought in 26 years later? We

:22:05.:22:11.

must be careful to talk about charges, again there must be a

:22:12.:22:15.

proper investigation and if appropriate charges should be

:22:16.:22:18.

brought I would not like to comment on the likelihood. Theresa May

:22:19.:22:24.

seemed to signal yesterday that she planned to look at what is clearly

:22:25.:22:28.

an adversarial, and satisfactory inquest process. Will we see a

:22:29.:22:33.

shake-up of inquests and the way that families are treated? Hope so.

:22:34.:22:38.

It is not so much the inquest procedure, it is the way that public

:22:39.:22:42.

bodies are allowed to have a public phase where they will apologise and

:22:43.:22:47.

a private face with a will litigate and be adversarial. This is a real

:22:48.:22:54.

problem. These are public bodies, we fund them, governments control them,

:22:55.:22:58.

if we have done something wrong and especially of the admit to doing

:22:59.:23:00.

something wrong then they should not be allowed to take an entirely

:23:01.:23:06.

contrary route through the courts or through litigation. And time frames,

:23:07.:23:14.

this has gone on for so long now, the Home Secretary yesterday

:23:15.:23:17.

suggested that it could be a year before any files are presented to

:23:18.:23:22.

the CPS. This could still presumably be going on for years to come? It

:23:23.:23:34.

could but it should. You cannot hide the truth and 27 years and then say,

:23:35.:23:38.

it has taken so long, let's forget it! It takes a lot of time to

:23:39.:23:43.

unravel a web of deceit that starts at the highest level. From the point

:23:44.:23:50.

of view of South Yorkshire if this goes on and the questions continue

:23:51.:23:54.

to be raised about the force, how do they, as a force, really builds

:23:55.:24:00.

confidence and trust with the local community that they please? You are

:24:01.:24:04.

absolutely right, Norman. This will be very difficult for South

:24:05.:24:09.

Yorkshire because unfortunately it has been in the spotlight because of

:24:10.:24:13.

some things that haven't gone as well as they should have done. But

:24:14.:24:17.

I've said from the start that we have staff and officers serving in

:24:18.:24:21.

South Yorkshire now which had nothing to do with those events, not

:24:22.:24:28.

even born at the time of that tragedy, it's about leadership at

:24:29.:24:32.

the top of the South Yorkshire Police to make sure that those staff

:24:33.:24:36.

can go out there, it's all about morale, they will be on their knees

:24:37.:24:42.

now, people are looking at them and questioning them, what do do do

:24:43.:24:47.

about Hillsborough, those officers they are pointing the finger at had

:24:48.:24:52.

nothing to do with that and that's what we could be clear about, that

:24:53.:24:57.

the South Yorkshire and do their job and do it well. Thank you both very

:24:58.:25:03.

much. Still to come, Facebook's profits are soaring as the company

:25:04.:25:07.

attracts more and more advertising. We will have the details. The Sun

:25:08.:25:13.

newspaper could be made to pay compensation to alleged victims of

:25:14.:25:16.

phone hacking after a judge's ruling at the High Court this morning. The

:25:17.:25:21.

newspaper has always denied that it listened to mobile phone messages

:25:22.:25:23.

but a new messages set of victims say their phones were hacked.

:25:24.:25:26.

Around 600 claims have been settled for hacking victims of the now

:25:27.:25:29.

let's get the latest from legal eagle Clive Coleman. For those of

:25:30.:25:37.

you who thought the phone hacking litigation was in the past, think

:25:38.:25:41.

again, it rumbles on. Today a significant new development. We just

:25:42.:25:45.

had a ruling from Mr Justice Mann at the High Court that four claimants

:25:46.:25:51.

can amend the cases they had already brought against knees but

:25:52.:25:56.

newspapers, significantly to include claims against the Sun newspaper,

:25:57.:26:01.

claims that there was phone hacking that took place at that newspaper.

:26:02.:26:06.

It's always been denied by News group newspapers will continue to

:26:07.:26:10.

deny it, by the way, that phone hacking took place at the Sun

:26:11.:26:16.

newspaper. We have had an application by four claimants. Simon

:26:17.:26:20.

Clegg, Chief Executive Officer of the British limbic Association. Les

:26:21.:26:26.

Heseltine, more familiarly known as Les Dennis, the entertainer -- the

:26:27.:26:32.

British Olympic Association. The manager of the band Babyshambles,

:26:33.:26:41.

and the head of press at Liverpool Football Club. Those claimants want

:26:42.:26:45.

to amend their claims to include claims against the Sun. It was

:26:46.:26:50.

vigorously opposed by the newspaper, who indeed wanted those claims

:26:51.:26:54.

struck out completely. Today the judge says he is going to dismiss

:26:55.:26:57.

the application to strikers claims that committee will allow those four

:26:58.:27:02.

claimants to continue their claims against the Sun. Now we know that up

:27:03.:27:10.

to 50 new claims against News group newspapers, many of which will

:27:11.:27:14.

include claims of hacking against the Sun are to be is it. A number of

:27:15.:27:19.

new claims the pipeline. I'm joined by Christopher Hutchings. One of the

:27:20.:27:25.

claimants. I imagine some of the other 50 will bring claims? Affair

:27:26.:27:32.

number of them. What it tough fight this was. The ruling today was

:27:33.:27:37.

significant because it brings the Sun squarely into the civil

:27:38.:27:42.

litigation friend. Newsgroup for this vigorously and the judge has

:27:43.:27:46.

found that there is sufficient evidence to allow the four claimants

:27:47.:27:53.

to claim for articles that come from the Sun but more substantially this

:27:54.:27:58.

will allow up 250 further claimants to plead some articles. It doesn't

:27:59.:28:06.

mean that these cases have been won, they have to be brought, yet to

:28:07.:28:10.

bring them you'll had to satisfy the judge that there was enough evidence

:28:11.:28:16.

to bring a case. Fisher correct, we had to put forward a significant

:28:17.:28:21.

amount of evidence including from individuals such as Glenn Malka and

:28:22.:28:27.

Paul McMullen. Denmark it was a private detective at the heart of

:28:28.:28:30.

the phone hacking scandal and the other Glen was a former news editor

:28:31.:28:34.

at the News of the World. He had something interesting to say about

:28:35.:28:39.

Rebekah Brooks, the editor of the Sun from 2003. Yes, the judge

:28:40.:28:45.

specifically refers to evidence that he believes that Rebekah Brooks, the

:28:46.:28:51.

former editor, was aware of phone hacking, she knew that certain

:28:52.:28:53.

stories were sourced through phone hacking. Of course Rebekah Brooks

:28:54.:28:59.

was acquitted of phone hacking at that criminal trial at the Old

:29:00.:29:04.

Bailey in 2014 but the judge in this civil case has taken note of what

:29:05.:29:09.

one witness says about what she knew Benji was editor. Witnesses working

:29:10.:29:17.

at the Sun have also given evidence as to knowledge and complicity at

:29:18.:29:21.

the highest levels of the newspaper. Thank you. Norman, just one other

:29:22.:29:38.

interesting fact. We were told... Bunker I'm sorry, I think the

:29:39.:29:41.

technology has gone wonky although we got the general idea from Clive,

:29:42.:29:44.

the legal eagle. Still to come. Some doctors say that you should be

Can the Government help save the future of the steel

:33:30.:33:36.

That's one of the questions likely to be asked of

:33:37.:33:39.

the Business Secretary Sajid Javid this morning - as he's giving

:33:40.:33:42.

evidence to the House of Commons Business Committee.

:33:43.:33:44.

Its future has been in doubt since Tata Steel, which employs

:33:45.:33:47.

11,000 people in Britain, announced it would be

:33:48.:33:48.

The Government has said it would be willing to front up the cash

:33:49.:33:53.

for a 25% stake in any takeover, but yesterday the Prime Minister

:33:54.:33:55.

said there was no guarantee the plan would help find a new buyer.

:33:56.:33:58.

I'm joined by our Business Editor Simon Jack.

:33:59.:34:02.

Simon, is there a better news for the steelworkers? As you know, on

:34:03.:34:09.

March the 29th, we got the news that everyone in the steel industry was

:34:10.:34:13.

dreading, that Tata couldn't make a go of it and was putting it up for

:34:14.:34:19.

sale. 10,000 jobs at stake. Can a buyer be found? Crucially, what can

:34:20.:34:22.

the Government do to make this industry viable? Can they give

:34:23.:34:28.

assistance, you talk about the 25% stake, what else could they do? And

:34:29.:34:32.

how long have we got to find a buyer before Tata decide to shut up shop.

:34:33.:34:37.

Those were some of the questions put to the boss, and here he is. We have

:34:38.:34:44.

always acted responsibly. We will continue to act responsibly, but we

:34:45.:34:57.

cannot pre-empt what a buyer will want, and we cannot continue to

:34:58.:35:01.

bleed. We will consider all other options, including the support given

:35:02.:35:04.

by the Government, and then we will take any decision. On the matter of

:35:05.:35:09.

the support given by the Government, has that been sufficient, in your

:35:10.:35:14.

opinion? We have been in constant positive dialogue with the

:35:15.:35:19.

Government. We do see that there is an emerging awareness that there is

:35:20.:35:24.

more that needs to be done and can be done than what has been done in

:35:25.:35:31.

the past. Such as what? The energy rebates, for example, that have come

:35:32.:35:36.

in in the past, that has been helpful, the transformation plan,

:35:37.:35:40.

also helpful in Port Talbot, but it does not take away from the

:35:41.:35:43.

structural weaknesses we suffer in the UK. We do have structural

:35:44.:35:50.

weaknesses such as business rates, costs which are much higher, and to

:35:51.:35:55.

give you an example, if we were at the same editors do price as

:35:56.:35:58.

Germany, the UK system would be better off by ?40 million. We would

:35:59.:36:05.

not be having negative numbers. That is interesting, what he is saying

:36:06.:36:08.

there is the support the Government is already announced isn't quite

:36:09.:36:12.

enough in his view to make those viable. A very interesting point

:36:13.:36:16.

about energy prices in Germany, there are half the price they are

:36:17.:36:21.

here to heavy intensive users like that. So the fact that the

:36:22.:36:24.

Government should be doing more, has to do more or less a buyer cannot be

:36:25.:36:33.

found, in which point, Bimlendra Jha says that it will have to go. And is

:36:34.:36:40.

there Areola stick chance of saving all of Tata Steel -- a realistic

:36:41.:36:52.

chance? It is very hard to imagine Port Talbot and the rest of the Tata

:36:53.:36:57.

operation surviving in its current form. The difficult bit to solve is

:36:58.:37:04.

the old blast furnaces. Those are where the fundamentals, the cheap

:37:05.:37:07.

steel from overseas, the high business rates, all combine to make

:37:08.:37:11.

that a very difficult business to make viable, so it doesn't look

:37:12.:37:16.

great. Tata have said they have got until next week the people to put in

:37:17.:37:20.

expressions of interest. You then have to have a more binding

:37:21.:37:22.

commitment by the end of me which could slip into June. Abel who think

:37:23.:37:27.

they can make this work had better get their skates on, and the

:37:28.:37:30.

Government needs to think quite hard about what it can do. Simon Jack,

:37:31.:37:36.

thank you very much indeed. Some doctors say that

:37:37.:37:38.

you should be encouraged to use e-cigarettes

:37:39.:37:41.

to help you quit because they are

:37:42.:37:42.

better than conventional cigarettes. The message has been confusing.

:37:43.:37:51.

E-cigarettes help you quit smoking, but could they harm you in other

:37:52.:37:55.

ways. Now doctors tell us to put aside concerns because they are so

:37:56.:37:59.

much better than cigarettes. The Royal College of Surgeons says

:38:00.:38:04.

smokers should be encouraged to vape.

:38:05.:38:08.

Here to discuss those findings is Dr John Britain

:38:09.:38:10.

from the Royal College of Physicians, along

:38:11.:38:12.

with Sarah Jakes, who quit smoking three years ago and now used

:38:13.:38:15.

e-cigarettes, and Joanna Miller who works with smokers

:38:16.:38:17.

Thank you for joining us. John, how confident are you that vaping is

:38:18.:38:31.

actually save? There have been a lot of stories out there, that they have

:38:32.:38:35.

trialled it with mice, and mice have had breathing difficulties. Are you

:38:36.:38:42.

sure that it is safe? Nothing is absolutely safe. What we conclude in

:38:43.:38:45.

the report, and one of the reasons for bringing the report out, to look

:38:46.:38:49.

at this issue. Long-term, electronic cigarettes probably do have some

:38:50.:38:54.

adverse effects, but the magnitude is extremely small. What effects?

:38:55.:38:58.

The likely effects would be an increased risk of chronic

:38:59.:39:03.

obstructive pulmonary disease, possibly cardiovascular disease or

:39:04.:39:06.

risk of cancer. That sounds pretty grim to me. That sounds like it, but

:39:07.:39:14.

the size of the increase in risk is much, much smaller than with tobacco

:39:15.:39:19.

smoking. If you are a nonuser of nicotine, it makes no sense to start

:39:20.:39:24.

using an electronic cigarette, but if you are a smoker, it is

:39:25.:39:27.

no-brainer to switch because the risk is lower. Sarah, you did

:39:28.:39:32.

switch? It was a no-brainer. I smoked 20 cigarettes a day, on and

:39:33.:39:38.

off for 34 years before I bought a refillable type device just to use

:39:39.:39:44.

in my car, and within two weeks, I had switched. Is that because you

:39:45.:39:50.

thought, I have got to stop smoking? At the time, I wasn't looking to

:39:51.:39:54.

quit. I just thought the device to use in my car. I had tried to give

:39:55.:39:58.

up several times before, and several times successfully, but giving up

:39:59.:40:02.

smoking is the easy bit, the hard bit is staying off them, not going

:40:03.:40:07.

back to it. Joanna, the question mark in my head about e-cigarettes

:40:08.:40:14.

is, are they still addictive, and don't they contain nicotine? So is

:40:15.:40:19.

this progress? Elektra next ago Reds do contain codeine. These days you

:40:20.:40:24.

can also get a electronic cigarettes without nicotine or with extremely

:40:25.:40:31.

low nicotine content. Ashworth and electronic cigarettes do contain

:40:32.:40:38.

nicotine. I would say that with time, they could move on to lower

:40:39.:40:44.

doses. What is wrong with cold turkey, just quit? It is quite a

:40:45.:40:53.

difficult thing, and you also experience withdrawal symptoms from

:40:54.:40:57.

withdrawing from nicotine. There is evidence to suggest that if you

:40:58.:41:03.

consider may be having some help in quitting smoking in terms of coming

:41:04.:41:10.

to a clinic like the Stop Smoking service that I work out, and you

:41:11.:41:13.

have behavioural support, that can help you more successfully quit

:41:14.:41:19.

smoking, and if you have different types of medication, or nicotine

:41:20.:41:23.

replacement products along the way, that can increase your chances even

:41:24.:41:26.

further. John, do you think the Government should promote

:41:27.:41:32.

e-cigarettes if the health risks are so much less? Should they actually

:41:33.:41:36.

aggressively say, think about changing. We would like to see a

:41:37.:41:42.

change in the way that all nicotine products are regulated and

:41:43.:41:45.

recommended by Governments and health authorities in such a way

:41:46.:41:48.

that the pressure is always to move away from smoking tobacco. If you

:41:49.:41:54.

are going to use nicotine, inhaling tobacco smoke is the most dangerous

:41:55.:41:58.

way you could possibly do it, so we want to encourage people to switch,

:41:59.:42:03.

ideally to medicinal products and behavioural support, but if that

:42:04.:42:05.

doesn't work for them or they don't feel ready for that, then an

:42:06.:42:10.

electronic cigarette. Do you know how many people use e-cigarettes? Is

:42:11.:42:15.

it a tiny number of smokers, or is it beginning to build up? There are

:42:16.:42:23.

over 2 million... 2 million? ! To varying degrees. There are 9 million

:42:24.:42:29.

smokers. It would be good if the figure was higher. And Sarah, do you

:42:30.:42:35.

suppose there were over, time when you just take the e-cigarette, chuck

:42:36.:42:42.

it out and give it couple together, or are you now addicted to that? I

:42:43.:42:48.

was always dependent on nicotine, so I probably still am, but the

:42:49.:42:52.

dependency is lower, but answer your question, I think probably for me,

:42:53.:42:55.

it wouldn't be the right thing to do to ditch my e-cigarette, because

:42:56.:43:00.

past six periods of quitting tells me that then I will relapse probably

:43:01.:43:11.

to smoking. I presume you have tried patches, gum, any use? Know, and

:43:12.:43:16.

every time I gave up with any degree of success, it was cold turkey, I

:43:17.:43:21.

have to say. Joanna, if e-cigarettes are the way to get people off

:43:22.:43:27.

smoking, and 2 million, I am surprised at the figure. Is your

:43:28.:43:31.

sense that this is the way to crack the issue of smoking addiction and

:43:32.:43:37.

the health risks that go with it? Is this the answer? I would be

:43:38.:43:41.

reluctant to say it is the answer. Every person is different, and the

:43:42.:43:46.

way that they stop smoking should be tailored to their individual needs.

:43:47.:43:51.

I think they probably find an method, something new on the market

:43:52.:43:55.

that hasn't been there before, and it most closely mimics the actions

:43:56.:43:58.

and feelings of smoking, so it can be quite an easy switch. That is the

:43:59.:44:04.

thing about it, it is the appeal. And there are so varied within

:44:05.:44:08.

themselves, people can always find something they want. We have some

:44:09.:44:14.

e-mails to read. Graham says, I was smoking at age 15, I tried to give

:44:15.:44:18.

up many times using patches and prescribed medicines, but always

:44:19.:44:22.

went back to them. I finally stopped smoking last May after my daughter

:44:23.:44:27.

bought me an e-cigarette. And Victoria: I find it unbelievable

:44:28.:44:30.

that the findings are still showing that e-cigarettes are only used the

:44:31.:44:34.

people who want to stop smoking. It is my opinion that it has made

:44:35.:44:39.

smoking acceptable again. That is an interesting point. It might have the

:44:40.:44:42.

reverse effect, suddenly it is socially OK to have a blast on an

:44:43.:44:48.

e-cigarette? The evidence is that people who use a electronic

:44:49.:44:51.

cigarettes are almost entirely people who would otherwise be

:44:52.:44:56.

smoking. So you could also argue that seeing people using electronic

:44:57.:45:00.

cigarettes in public places normalising the act of not smoking,

:45:01.:45:06.

but using an electronic cigarettes. On a risk spectrum, that is a far

:45:07.:45:10.

less hazardous as thing to see. And this e-mail I thought was

:45:11.:45:14.

interesting from Tony. Having stopped smoking for the past few

:45:15.:45:18.

months, I find it really disgusting the e-cigarettes are allowed to be

:45:19.:45:21.

smoked in public places. I was walking along outside Westminster

:45:22.:45:25.

the other day, and this guy in front of me was like a steam train with

:45:26.:45:29.

smoke billowing out of him. Do you find that people actually don't like

:45:30.:45:35.

it, even though it is an e-cigarette? People do. I think

:45:36.:45:41.

there is an etiquette needs to develop around this. It is basically

:45:42.:45:46.

manners. You don't blow stuffing people's faces. I have a little

:45:47.:45:52.

device on the table there, which is incapable of creating clouds, so I

:45:53.:45:56.

physically couldn't annoy anybody like that with that, but I have got

:45:57.:46:00.

devices that will do that, you just have to be careful when and who is

:46:01.:46:06.

around you when you use it. And another e-mail, we're getting a lot

:46:07.:46:10.

on this. Julie says, I went from smoking more than 50 a day, goodness

:46:11.:46:15.

me, to five per day over night when I picked up my first e-cigarette

:46:16.:46:21.

over two years ago. If vaping were banned or curtailed, I would be back

:46:22.:46:25.

on the fags as quickly as I dropped them. Joanna, is vaping on the

:46:26.:46:31.

growth just here, or is this worldwide, that there is now a move

:46:32.:46:36.

from smoking cigarettes to e-cigarettes? Are way ahead of

:46:37.:46:41.

everyone else or just in-line? I am not sure about the statistics,

:46:42.:46:53.

I would say it is quite on the rise in Western countries, I am not sure,

:46:54.:46:58.

John? UK is well ahead of most countries in the world and we have a

:46:59.:47:01.

high take-up of e-cigarettes because we haven't had the additions or

:47:02.:47:06.

other restrictions on their sale. Other countries are close, but some,

:47:07.:47:12.

Australia for example, prohibit use, and I think that is bad for Public

:47:13.:47:17.

health in those countries. Very interesting, thank you. We

:47:18.:47:18.

appreciate it. You've also been sending

:47:19.:47:25.

on their mental health. Tweet from Beverley -

to give my own son counselling Watching discussion on mental

:48:10.:48:13.

health in care. As a sexually abused victim myself

:48:14.:48:17.

it's good to see this Tweet from Ness - Good foster

:48:18.:48:20.

carers are SO important Earlier we heard from Daniel Harris

:48:21.:48:37.

who spent time in care and has been diagnosed with post to Maddox does

:48:38.:48:43.

disorder and bipolar disorder. He talked of his experiences with the

:48:44.:48:47.

system and I asked about the support he had received. I wasn't offered

:48:48.:48:52.

any. It's quite sad. It's taken me 25 years to get a diagnosis. I've

:48:53.:48:56.

just gone through a process which many kids who leave care nowadays go

:48:57.:49:00.

through, you can get access to your historic files, by getting that

:49:01.:49:05.

access to my historic files, what I found was, is actually written

:49:06.:49:08.

within my files that there was no funding available, and while this is

:49:09.:49:14.

historic, I am really worried about some of the cuts that are being

:49:15.:49:17.

pushed by the government at the moment and how this will affect some

:49:18.:49:23.

of today's care leavers. What exactly happened to you? I was

:49:24.:49:28.

sexually abused. My mother and father were previously looked after

:49:29.:49:33.

children so we were considered a valuable family. Part of the

:49:34.:49:36.

safeguarding of children is that I was taken into care on a temporary

:49:37.:49:41.

basis. And this happened throughout my life. But I had a really good

:49:42.:49:46.

care experience. I had some really good foster parents and I have some

:49:47.:49:52.

really good memories of that. Daniel mentioned funding, is it bluntly and

:49:53.:49:58.

issue of resources? We know that in the austerity and there has been

:49:59.:50:04.

continual cutting back, is it about austerity or awareness? Above, I'd

:50:05.:50:08.

say, we know that historically mental health has been given 0.7% of

:50:09.:50:14.

the NHS budget despite the fact that one in three GP visits this for a

:50:15.:50:18.

mental health issue. Because mental health cannot be seen it is not

:50:19.:50:21.

considered urgent. This is a organisation called the Foyer in

:50:22.:50:30.

Braintree, which looks after young adults who are homeless, gives them

:50:31.:50:34.

a place to sleep, teaches them social skills, cookery, skills for

:50:35.:50:38.

their resume, that is in danger of being closed by the local council. I

:50:39.:50:43.

can think of 200 things in Essex that I'd sacrifice before I

:50:44.:50:46.

sacrificed that. But because most of the time we don't hear from young

:50:47.:50:50.

people like this disease and to ignore them so well done for having

:50:51.:50:56.

this young man on the show. Ministers, again and again, stressed

:50:57.:51:00.

that mental health has been given increased priority so how can this

:51:01.:51:04.

happen at a time when the government is repeatedly trying to turn the

:51:05.:51:07.

attention from physical well-being to mental well-being. I think in the

:51:08.:51:13.

last five years we've seen a tremendous change in society about

:51:14.:51:16.

attitudes towards mental health. Much greater willingness for people

:51:17.:51:19.

to talk about it in public and share their stories. That is beginning, I

:51:20.:51:24.

stress, beginning, to change political attitudes, to get

:51:25.:51:27.

politicians to see this as a priority but it is hard work to

:51:28.:51:32.

shift the funding. That is the point we've reached come you cannot talk

:51:33.:51:36.

in public about mental health being a priority if you don't back up your

:51:37.:51:39.

actions by the level of funding it attracts. Daniel, you nodding. I've

:51:40.:51:46.

read the report and I want to stress that it says that 50% of children in

:51:47.:51:51.

care or leaving care have mental health disorders at the moment. And

:51:52.:51:55.

these are going pretty much and diagnosed. One thing I saw in the

:51:56.:52:00.

report which is going the right way is that there is support for looked

:52:01.:52:06.

after children until the age of 25, pretty much. That is the

:52:07.:52:10.

recommendation put in place. I am passionate about kids in care

:52:11.:52:14.

getting the right support. Let's face it, 23% of adult prisoners have

:52:15.:52:20.

been in care. That's 21,000 people currently in the prison system that

:52:21.:52:24.

were in care. We need to start asking questions as a society, why

:52:25.:52:27.

are we allowing this? OK. Facebook's profits have tripled

:52:28.:52:30.

in the first quarter of 2016, with a big rise in income

:52:31.:52:33.

from mobile phone advertising credited

:52:34.:52:35.

with driving its performance. We can talk to Eleni Marouli,

:52:36.:52:37.

an advertising analyst What is going on here? Facebook is

:52:38.:52:52.

outpacing all of its peers and showed massive growth in the first

:52:53.:52:56.

quarter which is traditionally very weak in advertising. Growing to $5.2

:52:57.:53:02.

billion in advertising revenue, massive growth from mobile if you

:53:03.:53:07.

think that in 2012, $0 came from mobile revenue and now they have

:53:08.:53:16.

created a market of $13 billion. In 2015 so much revenue came from

:53:17.:53:22.

Facebook and of online advertising revenue will be mobile which puts

:53:23.:53:26.

Facebook in a good place to succeed long-term. I thought Facebook was

:53:27.:53:31.

beginning to fade in popularity. I know, talking to my kids, it doesn't

:53:32.:53:35.

seem to have a central place in their life which it used to have. So

mobile phones have rescued Facebook, in a way. If you look at the

:53:41.:53:47.

engagement Facebook has, it's higher, and we measure that by daily

:53:48.:53:51.

active users compared with monthly active users. Family people use

:53:52.:53:57.

Facebook, it's going up because of the mobiles. Now it will be

:53:58.:54:01.

expanding into video content and advertising. The first time it can

:54:02.:54:07.

be streamed live and seen on an entertainment network in North

:54:08.:54:09.

America which is very attractive to the bigger brand of advertisers.

:54:10.:54:15.

Tell me about its audiences. It is still overwhelmingly younger folk

:54:16.:54:21.

all our oldies like me clambering onto it as well. -- or our oldies

:54:22.:54:29.

like me joining it? It appeals to all age groups. Its main currency is

:54:30.:54:34.

that it can identify those online and mobile users, something very

:54:35.:54:39.

hard to do in an age of a lot of ad fraud, so that is its main currency.

:54:40.:54:45.

Mobile phones have changed everything in terms of social media

:54:46.:54:51.

and its profitability and viability. Absolutely, mobile is no longer an

:54:52.:54:54.

afterthought, it is the main way advertisers think about Digital Mono

:54:55.:54:59.

tries Asian, and going forward what Facebook is betting on is the future

:55:00.:55:04.

of messaging apps. Which explains its big acquisition of WhatsApp, and

:55:05.:55:11.

also Virtual reality, we are waiting to view more about the future of

:55:12.:55:15.

that. A question and maybe unfair, where does Twitter fit in this? In

:55:16.:55:21.

the rivalry between Twitter and Facebook who uses Twitter and who

:55:22.:55:25.

uses Facebook and which is the more lucrative, looking forward? It is

:55:26.:55:31.

not a fair comparison, Facebook and Twitter are different propositions

:55:32.:55:33.

with different goals. Different starting points. Twitter had its

:55:34.:55:39.

results announced earlier this week as well, slightly below expectations

:55:40.:55:43.

although still robust growth in a traditionally weak quarter. That is

:55:44.:55:48.

expired 5% is very decent growth. The struggle with Twitter has been

:55:49.:55:51.

committed getting to investors what its value is. It held on to the

:55:52.:55:56.

similar magic of monthly active users which hasn't gone well. I

:55:57.:56:00.

think it added 5 million users in the first quarter which is very

:56:01.:56:05.

small. But it has this massive audience of about 5 million people

:56:06.:56:08.

which takes it up to billions of monthly active users which is quite

:56:09.:56:19.

serious audience. Thank you. I find it quite infuriating when someone is

:56:20.:56:22.

walking down the street looking at their mobile phone and expect you to

:56:23.:56:26.

get out of the way! Come on, guys, you are the one looking at your

:56:27.:56:31.

phone! More of your comments. Mark says that e-cigarettes should be

:56:32.:56:34.

taxed at the same rate as normal cigarettes.

:56:35.:56:46.

Brian says that he gave up smoking and his health has improved

:56:47.:56:52.

massively. Jennifer says excuses made by people who don't give up

:56:53.:56:57.

smoking but shift to e-cigarettes just annoys me. She says she smoked

:56:58.:57:04.

for 20 years and gave up cold turkey and has not smoked since. Yes, there

:57:05.:57:09.

were withdrawal symptoms, she says, but I dealt with them at home! David

:57:10.:57:15.

said, I used to smoke 30 cigarettes a day, switched to e-cigarettes and

:57:16.:57:19.

haven't looked back. You are emphasising the nicotine levels, yet

:57:20.:57:22.

it is the carcinogen is in cigarettes that number the thousands

:57:23.:57:27.

that caused the problems, the water vapour does not have those

:57:28.:57:28.

carcinogens. Thank you so much for your input

:57:29.:57:38.

into this programme because it is your e-mails and tweets that help us

:57:39.:57:44.

and it is great to have your input into all the different bits and bobs

:57:45.:57:48.

we have been discussing. Keep in touch any time through social media,

:57:49.:57:53.

of course. Maybe you are using Facebook now! This is the hashtag to

:57:54.:58:00.

use, and don't forget the old ancient website, it sounds old

:58:01.:58:01.

school but you can still use it! Joanna will be presenting tomorrow,

:58:02.:58:14.

so normal service tomorrow, have a tiptop day. Cheerio!
