It is Thursday, nine o'clock, I am Jeremy Gosling. -- Joanna Gosling. | :00:14. | :00:21. | |
Lloyds Bank has announced it is axing a further 3,000 jobs | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
and doubling its planned branch closures, with 200 more | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
to be go from the UK's high-streets by the end of 2017. | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
The cuts are in addition to the 9,000 job and 200 branch | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
The man in charge of the bank is blaming brexit. | :00:33. | :00:41. | |
We are talking exclusively to a woman who's dad died | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
in hospital after doctors decided wrongly that his life could not be | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
They used the controversial Liverpool Care Pathway and have | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
admitted for the first time that it killed him. | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
Should the photos of terrorists be splashed across the media? | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
France's leading newspaper is banning them - saying it | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
gives them the publicity and glory they crave. | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
Welcome to the programme, we're live until 11 this morning. | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
Lots coming up, do you think that the names and photos | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
of terrorists should be published - does it give them the | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
Tell us what you think as a leading french newsaper has | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
Do get in touch on all the stories we're talking about this morning - | :01:25. | :01:34. | |

Lloyds Banking Group is cutting a further 3,000 jobs | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
The high street lender - still ten per cent | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
owned by the taxpayer - says it's preparing for a cut | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
in interest rates after last month's vote to leave the EU. | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
Let's go straight to our Business Correspondent Ben Thompson | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
who has all the details - he's at the London Stock | :01:53. | :01:54. | |
They are blaming breaks it, tell us why taking this action. Looks like | :01:55. | :02:11. | |
cannot hear us. We cannot go to him. We will check in with then a little | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
later to get more on exactly what is happening with Lloyds, and why they | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
say breaks it is to blame. Actually, I think you can hear us now. Can you | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
hear me? I can, welcome to the stock exchange. Technical gremlins getting | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
in the way. Nevertheless we are talking about Lloyds, a raft of | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
details coming through from all sorts of businesses. Lloyd is one of | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
the crucial ones. Recapping on what he said in the introduction. Another | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
3000 jobs to go at Lloyd's, on top of the 9000 already announced last | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
year, taking to 12,000 across the country. Also more branch closures. | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
Closing another 200 branches up and down the UK. By this time next year | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
400 will have disappeared from our high street. Why are they doing it? | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
They have blamed breaks it, because of the record low interest rates, | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
there is an expectation that the cost of borrowing will fall further. | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
That means the profit margin that the banks can charge, on loans and | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
mortgages get smaller and smaller. Making less money. Pointing to the | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
fact we're changing the way we our banking. Not going into bank | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
branches, doing it on our phones and mobiles, tablets and computers | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
instead. They want to save about ?400 million. Announcing plans to | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
cut those jobs, close those branches this morning. The biggest fall is on | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
the stock market, Lloyds down almost two and three quarters of a percent. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
That is what investors are thinking. Not going down well with people | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
campaigning to keep branches open. All of this coming at the same time, | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
that they have announced pre-tax profits doubling to ?2.5 billion. | :04:04. | :04:12. | |
All other factors they are citing as reasons for job losses and closures | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
could apply to any banks, we will expect others to do similar? We have | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
seen a raft of bank closures and lay-offs in the past few years. | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
Largely as a result of the changing weight weedy banking. When was the | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
last time you went to a branch, paid in a cheque over-the-counter? That | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
has changed. Progress suggests it will go one. More of us using mobile | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
phones to do our banking. Contactless payments, credit cards. | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
All of that changing the way we do banking. No surprise they are | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
closing. After all they are very expensive, prime high street | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
locations, costing money to run and keep staff in them. Particularly | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
important in rural areas, they need to stay open, according to critics. | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
It is the lifeline of the local community. Local businesses paying | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
money and, taking cash out, also needed for older people unable to | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
access Internet or do it on the mobile phone. They want face-to-face | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
interaction. A lot of banks struggling with how they adapt to | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
new technology. What will they look like 5-10 years from now, still | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
trying to work that out. Particularly galling, given they | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
have announced profits rising to ?2.5 billion. At the same time | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
escalating the cost-cutting strategy, laying 3000 staff off on | :05:42. | :05:48. | |
top of the 9000 last year. 200 branches to go. On top of 200 last | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
year. 400 in total. Let's catch up with the rest of the | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
news. Anita is in the newsroom. The long-awaited decision | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
on whether a new nuclear power will be built at Hinckley Point | :06:03. | :06:04. | |
in Somerset could come today. The French energy firm EDF | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
is holding a board meeting where it's expected to approve | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
the giant ?18 billion pound project. Here's our business | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
correspondent John Moylan: It is a project on a vast scale. The | :06:13. | :06:23. | |
twin nuclear reactors planned for Hinkley point will provide 7% of the | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
UK's electricity. Due to start generating in 2025, one of the first | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
nuclear plants to be given the green light in Europe in years. | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
Preparation work at this site is under way. EDF ploughing in 2.5 | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
billion euros. After years of delays it is set to be approved. Hinkley | :06:46. | :06:53. | |
point See will cost 21 billion euros. One of the most expensive | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
man-made structures on the planet. The Chinese group CGN is a 35% stake | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
in the project. Part of a wider deal which could see Chinese reactors | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
built in Britain. French ambitions to export nuclear technology around | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
the world have suffered a series of setbacks. The EDF project in France | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
has been hit by delays and is billions of euros over budget. The | :07:20. | :07:29. | |
finance chief resigned earlier this year, amid concerns soaring costs | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
could destabilise EDF's finances. The powerful unions want Hinkley | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
point to be delayed. Earlier this week the shareholders approved a | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
major refinancing plan, paving the way for today's decision. The UK | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
looks set to enter a new nuclear era. | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
French police have formally identified the second of the two | :07:54. | :07:55. | |
attackers who killed an elderly priest in Rouen on Tuesday. | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
He's Abdelmalik Petitjean, who was 19 and from eastern France. | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
An identity card belonging to Abdelmalik Petitjean was found | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
in the house of the other attacker, Adel Kermiche, but because his body | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
was so badly disfigured in the police shooting | :08:12. | :08:13. | |
it was impossible to be sure it was him. | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
But now DNA tests have confirmed it. | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
The group calling itself is Lamex Stadium has allegedly released video | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
evidence of the two pledging themselves to its leader. | :08:25. | :08:26. | |
Barack Obama has urged Democrats to unite behind Hillary Clinton | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
as the most qualified person ever to run for the White House. | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
Closing the third day of the Democratic National Convention, | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
the outgoing President praised Mrs Clinton as someone | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
Meanwhile, the Republican candidate Donald Trump took advantage of more | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
controversy surrounding the leak of emails and voicemails | :08:40. | :08:41. | |
from the Democratic national Committee. | :08:42. | :08:42. | |
Kim Ghattas reports from Philadelphia: | :08:43. | :08:51. | |
On the third night of their convention, | :08:52. | :08:53. | |
the Democrats brought out their biggest asset. | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
The popular president, and gifted speaker, he | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
for Hillary Clinton as the Commander-in-Chief. | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
Time and again you have picked me up. | :09:10. | :09:11. | |
Tonight I ask you to do for Hillary Clinton what you | :09:12. | :09:21. | |
I ask you to carry the same way you carried me. | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
President Obama knows that to preserve his | :09:26. | :09:26. | |
legacy he needs Hillary Clinton to win the White House. | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
Her rival had just stirred up a storm, after | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
allegations Russia was behind hacking into the Democrat party. | :09:42. | :09:49. | |
He suggested Russia should hack Hillary | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
Russia, I hope you are able to find the 30,000 | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
You will be probably rewarded mightily by our | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
At the Democratic convention, from Joe Biden, to Senator Ted Caine, | :09:58. | :10:12. | |
They all attacked Mr Trump as a demagogue and | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
After President Obama laid out his vision | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
for America, a surprise appearance by the woman he hopes will take it | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
Theresa May's European Union tour moves to Poland and Slovakia today | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
as she continues talks on preparing for Brexit. | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
It follows a meeting with the Italian Prime Minister | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
yesterday, as well as talks in Germany, France and Ireland | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
Slovakia and Poland are among the EU states which benefit most | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
They have voiced concern about the rights of their nationals | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
The Turkish Government has ordered the closure of nearly | :10:42. | :10:55. | |
100 media organisations, as part of the crackdown | :10:56. | :10:56. | |
Almost 100 newspaper and broadcast journalists have also been arrested | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
The crackdown by Turkey's president has also targeted service personnel, | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
judges, government officials, school teachers | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
Immigration officials have arrested dozens of workers | :11:06. | :11:23. | |
at the burger chain, Byron. | :11:24. | :11:24. | |
The Home Office said 35 people from Albania, Brazil, | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
The operation took place earlier this month at restaurants | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
across London, but information has only just emerged. | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
Officials said it had been carried out with the restaurant chain's | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
A study of more than a million people has found that doing an hour | :11:35. | :11:43. | |
of activity a day could offset the health risks of sitting | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
The journal the Lancet has published a series of papers on the costs | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
of physical inactivity which is linked to an increased risk | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
of heart disease, diabetes and some cancers. | :11:54. | :11:55. | |
we know that sedentary behaviour is detrimental to health. | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
We wanted to understand whether physical activity | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
to eliminate the association between sitting time and inactivity. | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
If you are physically active for at least | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
one hour a day you are able to offset the association between | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
We're going to have tips on the sort of exercise you can do when you are | :12:12. | :12:36. | |
sitting down, stay with us. Plenty coming up on the programme. Do you | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
think the names and photographs of terrorists should be published? Does | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
it give them the publicity they crave? A leading French newspaper | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
has decided to ban them. We are looking into the new research, with | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
some experts, to give us some handy tips. | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
Let's catch up with the sport. We have an Olympic themed bulletin | :13:00. | :13:09. | |
this morning. Why not? The games are just a week away. We will hear from | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
the under fire IOC boss in a moment. First, to Team GB's preparations. | :13:16. | :13:22. | |
They have arrived at their training camp, 300 miles from Rio. It has | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
been financed by lottery grants, and officials say it has the best | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
facilities in Brazil. We have been to Brazil to take a look. | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
Sonny Webster may not be one of Team GB's best medal prospects. No | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
attention to detail has been spared. The under 98 kilograms weightlifter | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
provided with the same equipment at the training camp that he will use | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
later in Rio. Written's two weightlifters among the first to | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
arrive in Brazil along with the big boxing contingent, among them Nicola | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
Adams. Gold medallist in London, favourite to repeat that in Rio, | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
clearly enjoying the Olympic atmosphere. ?1.6 million in lottery | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
funding has been spent on getting this training camp right. Ringing | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
together athletes from 28 different sports, under one flag. The key part | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
is bringing the team together, not the individual national governing | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
bodies going to rear, the aim is Team GB, trying to unite the team to | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
bring them together to take on the world in the greatest challenge of | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
their lives, the Olympic Games environment. After coming third in | :14:33. | :14:39. | |
the medals table in London, Team GB has set a realistic but difficult | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
target of 48 medals in Rio. Using the best facilities is a key part of | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
achieving that target. This is a brand-new swimming pool in Belo | :14:49. | :14:56. | |
Horizonte, used by the entire squad. By their own high standards British | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
swimmers underperformed four years ago. Fran Halsall and Hannah Miley | :15:00. | :15:06. | |
among the swimmers in Brazil, training in reportedly the best | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
facilities in the country. More than 270 miles from Rio, this training | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
camp is inadvertently keeping UK athletes away from wider | :15:16. | :15:23. | |
distractions, including the political dispute on whether Russian | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
competitors should be excluded. Reports of the much travelled | :15:28. | :15:34. | |
athletes village, that should be ready by the time they arrive in | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
Rio. The British athletes will use facilities installed and paid for by | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
Team GB. Bosses insist they will have the best preparation possible. | :15:45. | :15:52. | |
Well, the Russian athletes who have not been band have also been | :15:53. | :16:03. | |
arriving in Rio. The IOC president has been justifying the decision not | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
to ban the entire Russian team. It is appreciated, on the one hand we | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
are sanctioning the system, but on the other hand, we give athletes who | :16:15. | :16:22. | |
are not part of the system, the opportunity to demonstrate this. | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
That is all the sport for now, but at 9:30am, we will take a look at | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
all the stories today and an in-depth look in our 's time. | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
Thank you. In an exclusive interview | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
this morning, Her dad died after doctors wrongly | :16:40. | :16:40. | |
decided that his life could not He was put on the notorious and now | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
discredited end of life care plan This meant that doctors withdrew | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
fluids and medication from Joseph and told Jayne | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
he was close to death. She spent the next three years | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
fighting to get answers and the hospital trust | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
has now apologised. This is believed to be the first | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
time hospital chiefs have publicly accepted the Liverpool Care Pathway | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
had "killed" a patient. We'll speak to Jayne in a moment, | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
but first let's remind ourselves Just under half of us die in a | :17:11. | :17:25. | |
hospital. Good end of life or palliative care is designed to make | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
that last experience as comfortable and dignified as possible. The | :17:31. | :17:36. | |
Liverpool care pathway, introduced in the 90s in England, Scotland and | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
Northern Ireland was meant to make that easier. Among other things, it | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
introduced a check list, think of it as a prompt for hospital staff to | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
help them work out when drugs, fluids and invasive tests can be | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
stopped. Those kind of treatments can be painful or unhelpful in the | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
last stage of life. The pathway often worked well, but when it went | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
wrong, it was extremely controversial. There were reports of | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
treatments being moved too quickly. Some families said their loved ones | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
had been left without food or water. The most damaging complaint was | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
around communication. Some patients were being put on the LCP without | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
anyone giving permission. Some families only found out about it | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
after a loved one had passed away. After all the controversy, in 2013, | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
the government scrapped the Liverpool care pathway in England. | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
It is also being phased out in Scotland and Northern Ireland. It | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
should be replaced with individual end of life plans, tailored to the | :18:37. | :18:44. | |
patient and discussed with their family but the discussion is not | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
over. Some critics say the government have just rebranded the | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
LCP, giving it a different name but continuing many of the same | :18:54. | :18:54. | |
practices. Well, Jayne Boberek, | :18:55. | :18:56. | |
whose father would have home had he not been placed | :18:57. | :18:57. | |
on the Liverpool Care Pathway, Thank you for coming in. You have | :18:58. | :19:08. | |
had a long battle to prove what happened. Take us back to when your | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
father went into hospital. He was 92. He had chronic background | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
conditions but these were being treated adequately. He had a routine | :19:19. | :19:26. | |
chest infection and he was admits it being dehydrated already, so I | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
presume the hydration aspect was being taken care off, as it usually | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
was. A few days later, I noticed he was not eating or drinking properly, | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
although he said he wanted food so I knew he had an appetite. I reported | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
this to the visiting therapist and she told the staff on the Monday | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
morning and they gave him extra fluids. But I didn't know at the | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
time, less than a quarter of these had been administered, and a few | :20:00. | :20:07. | |
days later, a junior doctor told me that the whole team had been talking | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
and they were thinking not to treat my father, because he had developed | :20:12. | :20:20. | |
a further infection, and his chronic heart, kidney and liver conditions | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
were at a terminal stage. That is how it was presented. I said, if | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
antibiotics had a good effect, what would be the result? They said, even | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
then, the problem is his heart. So effectively, he was not being | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
treated at this point. I only found out later he already was not being | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
treated. This was 29 hours without oral fluids and a day and a half | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
without his routine medications by the time I was approached. It was | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
quite confusing picture, in that you were being told that there were | :20:56. | :21:02. | |
various conditions going on which you subsequently discovered were not | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
the case. He seemed to be deteriorating, but you now know that | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
is because he was not getting the fluids. Was it a simple case of the | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
hydration, do you think? I think it was lack of care, lack of oral | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
dehydration, lack of clinically assisted rehydration, and I am not | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
sure if this was deliberate incompetency or what. You were told | :21:26. | :21:33. | |
that he was getting a lot of fluid, but he wasn't? I had alerted them to | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
the fact I felt he was not getting enough intake, yes. I presumed this | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
was being taken care of. Why do you think he was not being given that | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
fluid? I think it was a mixture of things. I think it was difficult. | :21:51. | :21:58. | |
The cannula came out, it was not reinserted. The fluid was not | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
continued. I am really not sure. I think it was a lack of factors, a | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
lack of substandard care and a lack of adequate care. That is your dad. | :22:10. | :22:16. | |
That is him, yes. Tell us a bit about him. He was quite a character. | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
That is what people said to me in the hospital, he is quite a | :22:21. | :22:26. | |
character, your dad. He was. He was very fiery, very opinionated, and | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
even though he was over 90, he had life left in him yet. When I saw him | :22:32. | :22:46. | |
in the bed deteriorating, I presumed, and it was presented to | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
me, that this was part of his condition, his medical condition. I | :22:50. | :22:51. | |
found out from the report, and from my research, that it wasn't. The | :22:52. | :22:59. | |
dehydration was the likely cause, and the removal of his routine | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
medications. Why were you so certain, because you had doctors | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
telling you he had an infection, you could see the deterioration, and you | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
did not know at that stage it was down to hydration, why were you so | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
sure that you were not getting the whole picture? I still, even up to | :23:16. | :23:22. | |
the moment he died, I believed he had another infection, and that his | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
organs were failing, but it looked to me like he was battling for life. | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
They looked like he was not ready to let go, and the question was, | :23:30. | :23:37. | |
whether to intervene, when I believed his organs were absolutely | :23:38. | :23:44. | |
failing, and this was the end stage. Afterwards, I left the hospital, | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
knowing that something profoundly wrong had happened, that I had | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
witnessed, something deeply wrong, and that is when I started to pursue | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
it myself, and got his records. The doctors said they had been talking | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
about his condition and whether to effectively put him on the Liverpool | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
Care Pathway. How's that bit to you? This was very odd, because it was at | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
530 in the late afternoon and I had been asking them all day, I had been | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
alerting them, he has not eaten, he has not drunk all day, I am | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
concerned. I was alerting them that there was something wrong, and I | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
presumed as if this was presented as his ongoing medical conditions, this | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
was a consequence of them. Hydration wasn't even on my radar. I naturally | :24:36. | :24:42. | |
assumed, it was such basic care, that he had been given all adequate | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
hydration. This was what I presumed. Word they open with you about the | :24:50. | :24:56. | |
Liverpool Care Pathway? No. The junior doctor said I can go and get | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
the papers for the Liverpool Care Pathway now. That alerted me that | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
something was wrong. And so, I said, I agree to hold on. I thought I was | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
agreeing just to stop the antibiotics, just to hold onto that, | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
but I presumed everything else was continuing, it was just the | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
medication that was on hold. So you did not know it was effectively a | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
pathway that would ease him to his end? I did not know that it had been | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
started. I think it was effectively underway without the paperwork. The | :25:33. | :25:39. | |
paperwork was put in place the next day. I think a day and a half before | :25:40. | :25:42. | |
I was even spoken to, it was already underway. I had power of attorney, | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
so this is the last thing I was expecting. When I had power of | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
attorney, I should have been consulted regarding all medical | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
decisions, all clinical decisions. So after he died, you asked to see | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
the records? Yes. How quickly did you work out what had happened? The | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
records in themselves that were sent to me were not complete. There were | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
a few crucial pages missing which confirmed he had not received all | :26:17. | :26:23. | |
his hydration, or his IV fluids. These pages I received after the | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
investigation when I pursued and pursued them, asking for an | :26:30. | :26:31. | |
explanation, or to give me these pages. So I received the pages | :26:32. | :26:39. | |
incomplete. I did a lot of research and I could see the responses given | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
by the hospital. The first response said they followed the best | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
principles of palliative care, and his organs were failing, he would | :26:50. | :26:55. | |
not have recovered anyway even with treatment. The second response told | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
me that his diagnosis of dying and his care was correct in all aspects. | :27:02. | :27:07. | |
I could see the information they were giving me did not match up with | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
the medical records. I am a non-medical person. What is your | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
background? It is quite something went doctors are telling you | :27:17. | :27:22. | |
something... Very senior doctors. And then everyone is saying they are | :27:23. | :27:25. | |
agreeing with a position which is very different from the position you | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
suspect. What was your background that made you sort of able to pick | :27:30. | :27:35. | |
through that and keep on fighting? It was odd to me that a very senior | :27:36. | :27:40. | |
palliative care physician was telling me that my father was dying | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
on a Wednesday morning, but it was okayed to consult me on a Thursday | :27:46. | :27:50. | |
evening. That sounded odd in itself. When I picked through the detail and | :27:51. | :27:55. | |
I could see it did not match up with his medical records, all that was | :27:56. | :27:59. | |
left was a prognosis that he was likely to die in the future. That | :28:00. | :28:04. | |
was really literally all that was left, when you removed the incorrect | :28:05. | :28:17. | |
statements made. This was a fight that went over three years. Yes! How | :28:18. | :28:21. | |
much toing and froing was there? I managed to get the final pages a | :28:22. | :28:25. | |
year and a half after he died, the puzzle fell into place because there | :28:26. | :28:30. | |
were nursing notes and you could see he had the, the fluids had not been | :28:31. | :28:37. | |
administered. I referred it to the ombudsman because the hospital did | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
not want to pursue it any further. And the ombudsman said you were | :28:42. | :28:47. | |
right? Yes. What was it like when you had that three? It was not a | :28:48. | :28:52. | |
surprise really. I had still believed at that point that my | :28:53. | :28:57. | |
father's organs had been at the end stage, that his background | :28:58. | :29:01. | |
conditions were terminal. But that was a shock to me, that he wasn't. | :29:02. | :29:08. | |
As far as we know, yours is the only case, where it has been assessed, | :29:09. | :29:14. | |
that the Liverpool care pathway did actually lead to the death of | :29:15. | :29:20. | |
somebody who otherwise would have survived? Yes, his withdrawal of | :29:21. | :29:26. | |
treatment, long before the Liverpool Care Pathway was in place, yes. His | :29:27. | :29:33. | |
reduction. If you reduce fluids and they sit medications in a healthy | :29:34. | :29:37. | |
person, you are going to cause deterioration, but if you do that to | :29:38. | :29:43. | |
an old man, you certainly are. The reason the Liverpool Care Pathway | :29:44. | :29:46. | |
was introduced was to try and ensure a dignified and comfortable death | :29:47. | :29:52. | |
for somebody who was certainly dying, but it has now been phased | :29:53. | :29:56. | |
out, because of concerns around why it was used. Do you think there are | :29:57. | :30:03. | |
other lessons? I think the new guidelines are deeply worrying and | :30:04. | :30:06. | |
repeat many of the same elements. The constant repetition in the new | :30:07. | :30:11. | |
guidelines about diagnosing the dying patient, as if they can beat | :30:12. | :30:17. | |
diagnosed. There is an inference that you can diagnose someone as | :30:18. | :30:22. | |
dying and you cannot. There is no clinical evidence. Once you make | :30:23. | :30:26. | |
that assumption and start removing treatment, it is a self-fulfilling | :30:27. | :30:31. | |
prophecy. What would you tell somebody if they have concerns if | :30:32. | :30:35. | |
they have a relative in hospital? You shouldn't have to do this but | :30:36. | :30:39. | |
I'm afraid you do, you have to be suspicious about what is going on, | :30:40. | :30:45. | |
and make sure your relatives is fully hydrated, orally and even IV. | :30:46. | :30:56. | |
Make sure IV fluids are all given, or if they are taken down, why they | :30:57. | :30:59. | |
are taken down. And be constantly aware that treatment and care can be | :31:00. | :31:02. | |
removed without being aware of it. Thank you. | :31:03. | :31:05. | |

A lot of you getting in touch with your thoughts on whether terrorists' | :34:45. | :34:52. | |
photographs should be published, after one French newspaper said they | :34:53. | :34:58. | |
would not be doing it. One reviewer said they glory in the publicity, | :34:59. | :35:03. | |
deny them the gratification. John said, absolutely yes. Images of | :35:04. | :35:08. | |
atrocities should be published widely and honestly. Good for France | :35:09. | :35:13. | |
for banning images of the terrorists, we had to suppress our | :35:14. | :35:19. | |
impulses to their faces. Well done France, someone with sense. They | :35:20. | :35:21. | |
should not get media coverage anywhere. Anonymous text, I agree | :35:22. | :35:26. | |
with banning the faces of terrorists in the papers and all media, what | :35:27. | :35:31. | |
those murderers crave is that kind of fame and attention. Encouraging | :35:32. | :35:36. | |
other young people to follow. As a viewer I don't want to see the faces | :35:37. | :35:40. | |
of killers, we should focus on telling the stories of the victims. | :35:41. | :35:44. | |
I totally agree, Isis and other terrorist groups faces should not be | :35:45. | :35:50. | |
published. Videos should not be allowed on Facebook or similar | :35:51. | :35:55. | |
social media sites. Let them be treated as the insignificant cowards | :35:56. | :35:58. | |
that they are. Kevan Hurst texting, terrorism and publicity, | :35:59. | :36:02. | |
broadcasting needs to think about this is one as the medias. Nonstop | :36:03. | :36:07. | |
coverage by broadcasters leads into future terrorist incidents. Once | :36:08. | :36:10. | |
they are reported, some curtailment should happen to restore is a sense | :36:11. | :36:17. | |
of proportion. Well done to the French media, we give too much | :36:18. | :36:20. | |
coverage to the terrorists. Do keep that coming in. Hello, there | :36:21. | :36:28. | |

Prime Minister Theresa May is continuing her whirlwind | :37:38. | :37:38. | |
diplomacy tour of Europe with a visit to Poland. | :37:39. | :37:41. | |
She will meet Prime Minister Polish Prime Minister Szydlo. | :37:42. | :37:43. | |
It is expected they will discuss the ramifications of the UK's vote | :37:44. | :37:46. | |
to leave, including the residency status of the 850,000 Poles | :37:47. | :37:49. | |
that currently reside in the UK. | :37:50. | :37:56. | |
We can speak to Conservative MP Daniel Kawczynski who voted to leave | :37:57. | :38:01. | |
and originally came to Britain as a Polish immigrant in the 1970s. | :38:02. | :38:05. | |
Kate Fejfer who is a Polish community leader | :38:06. | :38:07. | |
and Ola Rybinska a polish journalist from Warsaw who can give us | :38:08. | :38:10. | |
Thank you for joining us. Kate, what will Polish people living here be | :38:11. | :38:22. | |
hoping for on freedom of movement? For us, important to make sure we | :38:23. | :38:29. | |
are safe, secure to stay here. Our rights to get a job and still work, | :38:30. | :38:35. | |
without losing care. Our Polish people feeling vulnerable about | :38:36. | :38:42. | |
their future? Yes, we have... I spoke to friends and clients, and | :38:43. | :38:48. | |
they are fearing for the future. You are a journalist in Poland, what | :38:49. | :38:53. | |
will Poland be wanting to get out of the Brecht it negotiations? I think | :38:54. | :38:59. | |
the first thing will be that Poland will want the UK to take a lot of | :39:00. | :39:07. | |
time to leave the European Union. Poland is hoping for Brett set after | :39:08. | :39:11. | |
2020. The Polish Prime Minister will try to convince Theresa May to take | :39:12. | :39:17. | |
time, this bone breaks it until 2020. The reason is simple, it is | :39:18. | :39:24. | |
about the EU funding. After 2020, the rules will change anyway for the | :39:25. | :39:29. | |
reallocation of EU funds. If the UK leaves before that, the rules will | :39:30. | :39:36. | |
change, and Poland will receive less money from the EU budget. This will | :39:37. | :39:50. | |
certainly be one thing you are telling us about the EU funds, what | :39:51. | :40:02. | |
about freedom of movement? Freedom of movement is important, but David | :40:03. | :40:06. | |
Cameron gave us guarantees, not much will change, at least for the Polish | :40:07. | :40:12. | |
people in the UK. Not such a big issue. We have, and the Polish | :40:13. | :40:19. | |
government has a lot of trust in the UK, that the rules will not change, | :40:20. | :40:25. | |
essentially. Theresa May has not given that guarantee. Let's bring in | :40:26. | :40:30. | |
Daniel. How should Theresa May handle the talks, balancing | :40:31. | :40:36. | |
written's interest on free trade, and the question of freedom of | :40:37. | :40:41. | |
movement? She has two obviously pursue what is in the British | :40:42. | :40:44. | |
National strategic interest. What will be vital is that we protect the | :40:45. | :40:51. | |
rights of the British citizens living in the European Union. There | :40:52. | :40:55. | |
are currently 1.8 million Britons living in the EU. 3 million EU | :40:56. | :41:00. | |
citizens living in the United Kingdom. I understand the polls want | :41:01. | :41:05. | |
to have safeguards for their continued residence in the United | :41:06. | :41:09. | |
Kingdom, that should come about, but only when we are given the same | :41:10. | :41:15. | |
guarantees for our citizens, currently living in the European | :41:16. | :41:19. | |
Union. Where do you see the balance of what is in the British interest? | :41:20. | :41:24. | |
850,000 Polish people living and working in the UK. Should they all | :41:25. | :41:34. | |
be allowed to stay? The free movement of people is a wonderful | :41:35. | :41:40. | |
concept in theory. In practice it has not worked, only to make | :41:41. | :41:45. | |
countries in the European Union. Ourselves and island-macro. English | :41:46. | :41:50. | |
is the international language, we have received a massively | :41:51. | :41:54. | |
disproportionate number of migrants from all over the European Union in | :41:55. | :41:59. | |
to come, work and live in the European union. I believe | :42:00. | :42:03. | |
immigration is good for our country, but it has to be managed. The | :42:04. | :42:08. | |
concern is that the Polish government has played to its own | :42:09. | :42:12. | |
domestic audience, to say to them we are standing up for your rights, to | :42:13. | :42:16. | |
live and work wherever you like in the European Union, but that is | :42:17. | :42:22. | |
unsustainable. Bad for Poland. Because there are cities and towns | :42:23. | :42:27. | |
rapidly becoming depopulated in Poland. They are having real | :42:28. | :42:34. | |
problems providing public services because of the brain drain. It is | :42:35. | :42:37. | |
bad for the United Kingdom, certain communities like Peterborough, | :42:38. | :42:42. | |
Boston, where local services are being overwhelmed by the sheer | :42:43. | :42:46. | |
numbers. Yes, let's protect people already here, but Syriza may must | :42:47. | :42:51. | |
ensure that wrecks it means breaks it. United Kingdom takes back | :42:52. | :42:58. | |
control of our borders. So we can decide who gets to come into our | :42:59. | :43:01. | |
country to work, if they have the relevant skills, matching our skills | :43:02. | :43:11. | |
shortages. Have you seen evidence of the brain drain? Yes, of course. | :43:12. | :43:18. | |
This is absolutely true. It would be in the interest Poland these people | :43:19. | :43:26. | |
came back. The problem is, I'm not sure we can assure jobs from all of | :43:27. | :43:31. | |
them. On the same level and position, certainly not for the same | :43:32. | :43:36. | |
money they get by working in the UK for the future. The Polish | :43:37. | :43:41. | |
government would like to get people back, the brain drain is bad for us. | :43:42. | :43:46. | |
The question is do we have jobs and housing for all these people? Kate, | :43:47. | :43:53. | |
you are concern is primarily with people here already. If there were | :43:54. | :43:59. | |
guarantees that people already here could stay, would that be what you | :44:00. | :44:05. | |
want? Do you have concerns about future freedom of movement? Or not | :44:06. | :44:10. | |
so much? Definitely, we still have family in Poland. Living in the UK, | :44:11. | :44:18. | |
we are still going for holidays. Automatically, this may be more | :44:19. | :44:22. | |
difficult for us. The future for us is very important, we still have | :44:23. | :44:28. | |
family, children, they go to school, university, we would like to know | :44:29. | :44:34. | |
what will happen. What has been the particular law of Britain for Polish | :44:35. | :44:42. | |
people? Why have they been particularly attractive to coming to | :44:43. | :44:50. | |
Britain in Europe? For the time, the financial programme. We don't have | :44:51. | :44:54. | |
enough Social Security in Poland. We are looking for a better life. | :44:55. | :44:58. | |
Depending where we are giving from experience, we may stay. Are we | :44:59. | :45:03. | |
coming back to Poland, which is not good, the level of life is better, | :45:04. | :45:10. | |
but still not enough to stay there. Talk about a seven year emergency | :45:11. | :45:18. | |
brake on freedom of movement, as part of a trade deal with the free | :45:19. | :45:24. | |
market, what do you think of that? No, I would be uncomfortable with | :45:25. | :45:28. | |
that. A lot of other Conservative Parliamentary colleagues would be | :45:29. | :45:31. | |
uncomfortable with anything which radically falls short of our ability | :45:32. | :45:38. | |
to take back control of our borders. As I said, immigration was the | :45:39. | :45:42. | |
number one issue at the last general election, quite extraordinary that | :45:43. | :45:48. | |
rather than the economy which has been the number one issue, | :45:49. | :45:51. | |
immigration was the number one issue at the last general election. People | :45:52. | :45:56. | |
expect us to take back control of our borders. The vast majority of | :45:57. | :46:00. | |
people in the United Kingdom unwelcoming, very tolerant to | :46:01. | :46:06. | |
foreigners. They understand the economic benefits to our country of | :46:07. | :46:09. | |
allowing people with skills to come and work. They do expect very keenly | :46:10. | :46:17. | |
that the government has the ability to control the numbers coming in. | :46:18. | :46:23. | |
Last year we had net migration of 350,000 into the country. Completely | :46:24. | :46:30. | |
unsustainable. To answer the other lady's point, Poland is grabbing at | :46:31. | :46:35. | |
a phenomenal pace. Its economy is growing at a faster rate than most | :46:36. | :46:38. | |
other countries in the European Union. Standards of living are going | :46:39. | :46:43. | |
up in Poland. Poland will ultimately reach the stain standard as we have | :46:44. | :46:51. | |
in the United Kingdom. -- the same standard. It is vital that Theresa | :46:52. | :46:55. | |
May explains to the Polish government that if we are going to | :46:56. | :46:58. | |
help Poland with various issues she has going forward, one of which is | :46:59. | :47:05. | |
security. They want a permanent Nato base east of Warsaw, if they want | :47:06. | :47:08. | |
that support on fundamentally important things they feel keenly | :47:09. | :47:12. | |
on, they must start to understand and respect some of the problems we | :47:13. | :47:17. | |
have in the United Kingdom with migration, and try to work with us, | :47:18. | :47:21. | |
so we can resolve them, in the interests of our own citizens. | :47:22. | :47:27. | |
And is there an understanding of the sort of arguments that Daniel is | :47:28. | :47:35. | |
talking about in Poland? Yes of course, there is. The point is that | :47:36. | :47:40. | |
most immigration we see from Poland to the UK is from very small towns. | :47:41. | :47:45. | |
It is from more or less the countryside where there is really | :47:46. | :47:48. | |
structural unemployment. The point is, if it was that easy to take | :47:49. | :47:54. | |
those people back and put them into work, the problem is, there is no | :47:55. | :47:59. | |
work, that is why they left. That problem hasn't been solved. But the | :48:00. | :48:06. | |
Polish economy is growing. Isn't it better to build a stronger economy | :48:07. | :48:10. | |
with their workforce? Of course, but it will not happen tomorrow or the | :48:11. | :48:14. | |
day after tomorrow. This will take years. We have structural problems | :48:15. | :48:18. | |
in Poland which need to be solved but the government has only just | :48:19. | :48:24. | |
started working on it. During that time there is no employment in these | :48:25. | :48:28. | |
regions where these people left for the UK. Of course, the Polish | :48:29. | :48:33. | |
government sees the arguments of the UK, and the British government sees | :48:34. | :48:37. | |
and understands the problems they have with migration, but I think a | :48:38. | :48:42. | |
compromise will have to be worked out. I then think all the posts will | :48:43. | :48:46. | |
be back immediately, and there will be a time for maybe a couple of | :48:47. | :48:50. | |
years that they will stay in the UK, and some kind of compromise will | :48:51. | :48:55. | |
have to be worked out. How quickly do you want deals to be sewn up? We | :48:56. | :49:07. | |
are thinking that article 50 may be invoked after Christmas, when | :49:08. | :49:09. | |
Article 50 is invoked we have a period up to two years for | :49:10. | :49:12. | |
renegotiation. I had a debate in the House of Commons just the other | :49:13. | :49:17. | |
week, about the contribution of polls in the UK, because I wanted to | :49:18. | :49:24. | |
explain to fellow parliamentarians and the extraordinary contribution | :49:25. | :49:27. | |
that Polish people have made to this country, not just in the recent | :49:28. | :49:31. | |
years, but most importantly during the Battle of Britain when the | :49:32. | :49:36. | |
Polish 303 Squadron was the most accessible Squadron in the Battle of | :49:37. | :49:40. | |
Britain. Polish people have made a huge contribution and their | :49:41. | :49:43. | |
reputation in this country is second to none. Most of the people I have | :49:44. | :49:49. | |
spoken to know Polish migrants to be hard-working, paying their taxes, | :49:50. | :49:53. | |
contributing to society, so they are the ideal type of migrants, and we | :49:54. | :49:57. | |
are very appreciative of their contribution. But the Polish economy | :49:58. | :50:02. | |
has grown by 500% since the fall of communism. It is continuing to grow | :50:03. | :50:06. | |
and I very much hope the Polish government will start to ensure | :50:07. | :50:17. | |
there are more jobs available for Polish workers, because the numbers | :50:18. | :50:20. | |
that have been coming over I just unsustainable, and yes, we must | :50:21. | :50:22. | |
protect the rights of the people who are here already, yes, first and | :50:23. | :50:25. | |
foremost we must protect the rights of British people in the European | :50:26. | :50:29. | |
Union, but the Polish government has the government around the European | :50:30. | :50:33. | |
Union and must now understand that we want to trade with them, we want | :50:34. | :50:38. | |
to cooperate with them in terms of security, but there is free movement | :50:39. | :50:44. | |
of -- this free movement of people concept coming to the United Kingdom | :50:45. | :50:48. | |
is gone. We gave them a chance repeatedly in the negotiations. Mr | :50:49. | :50:52. | |
Cameron went over and over again to Warsaw, to explain how difficult it | :50:53. | :50:59. | |
was to deal with these numbers. They chose to ignore our concerns. That | :51:00. | :51:03. | |
is why we are pulling out of the European Union, and that is why this | :51:04. | :51:08. | |
concept of completely controlled migration to this country, those | :51:09. | :51:12. | |
days are gone. Daniel, Kate and Ola, thank you. Coming up... | :51:13. | :51:16. | |
Are prisons able to cope with older inmates? | :51:17. | :51:18. | |
A watchdog says many age-related conditions like dementia | :51:19. | :51:19. | |
The crackdown in Turkey following the failed coup is continuing with | :51:20. | :51:32. | |
the dismissal or a rest of thousands of people from all walks of life. | :51:33. | :51:37. | |
The military, the media and education officials, more than 100 | :51:38. | :51:41. | |
media outlets were ordered to close yesterday. Dozens of journalists | :51:42. | :51:43. | |
have been arrested in recent days. Yesterday we spoke to Yavuz Baydar, | :51:44. | :51:46. | |
who has 40 years' experience as a journalist and was the founding | :51:47. | :51:49. | |
member of Platform for That was before this latest | :51:50. | :51:51. | |
round of closures - We are not revealing his location | :51:52. | :51:55. | |
due to concerns for his safety. Thank you very much for joining us | :51:56. | :52:03. | |
again. Since we spoke, there has been more of a crackdown, what is | :52:04. | :52:10. | |
your reaction to it? The most recent news piece is younger, investigative | :52:11. | :52:21. | |
reporter, was caught by police and this is a reporter awarded the | :52:22. | :52:29. | |
runner-up in the EU investigative reporting award this year. That is | :52:30. | :52:37. | |
the latest peace. And then the decree last night, the massive | :52:38. | :52:44. | |
closure of as you said, more than 100 news outlets, about 45 | :52:45. | :52:51. | |
newspapers, 16 TV stations and radio stations and three news agencies. | :52:52. | :52:59. | |
This is a large bulk of whatever remains in a semi-independent | :53:00. | :53:05. | |
segment of the media. That is continuing and increasing a growing | :53:06. | :53:10. | |
clamp-down of media segments in Turkey. What is left in terms of | :53:11. | :53:16. | |
freedom of speech in Turkey? Our investigations are monitoring | :53:17. | :53:23. | |
reports... INAUDIBLE | :53:24. | :53:35. | |
Now we have a few tiny news sites, sort of left-leaning or centre | :53:36. | :53:39. | |
independent but struggling financially, four or five | :53:40. | :53:46. | |
newspapers, one with editors sentenced to five years in prison | :53:47. | :53:51. | |
at, another one the editor in chief is in prison and has threats over | :53:52. | :53:59. | |
his life. There are three or four newspapers, mainly left and one | :54:00. | :54:03. | |
Kurdish newspaper and no TV channel at all at the moment which can | :54:04. | :54:07. | |
report independently and freely at the moment in Turkey. You mentioned | :54:08. | :54:14. | |
some news sites, is the Internet still freely accessible? That is not | :54:15. | :54:21. | |
freely accessible. The emergency rule regulations, the law about | :54:22. | :54:28. | |
emergency rule approved without the concerns of the Internet, because it | :54:29. | :54:34. | |
is rather old, so it falls out of the jurisdiction of emergency rule, | :54:35. | :54:38. | |
that is why we did not see any lists of news sites in this one last | :54:39. | :54:45. | |
night, but a disk all upon the jurisdiction of the so-called peace | :54:46. | :54:50. | |
Courts, also strictly controlled by the Justice ministry at the moment. | :54:51. | :54:58. | |
It is the Internet, the bounds of new sites will continue to be | :54:59. | :55:06. | |
decided by the courts and judges. Lots of people have been arrested | :55:07. | :55:10. | |
and there have been concerns voiced by Amnesty International as well as | :55:11. | :55:14. | |
other organisations about what is happening to them in custody, how | :55:15. | :55:18. | |
easy is it to monitor what is going on and what sort of access to those | :55:19. | :55:23. | |
who are arrested have to any legal representation? | :55:24. | :55:34. | |
There are -- due to the severely restricted conditions of the media, | :55:35. | :55:44. | |
we have severe difficulties to understand the breadth of the | :55:45. | :55:50. | |
round-up. Also, human rights organisations like you and rights | :55:51. | :55:53. | |
watch and Anstey International are also having difficulties for access | :55:54. | :56:00. | |
-- Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International. The less free the | :56:01. | :56:08. | |
media is, the more curved the media is, the more it more difficulties we | :56:09. | :56:16. | |
will have two establish the facts. What is your view of where things | :56:17. | :56:22. | |
are going to go in Turkey? The pattern leaves very little doubt | :56:23. | :56:28. | |
about whether or not democratic position in Parmenter, the main | :56:29. | :56:34. | |
opposition and the second opposition and perhaps more importantly the | :56:35. | :56:41. | |
third-largest party in parliament, whether they will be establishing or | :56:42. | :56:47. | |
forming enough of a strong enough by now Mick for returning to | :56:48. | :56:52. | |
normalisation process. As one critical columnist pointed out this | :56:53. | :56:57. | |
morning, he said, ironically, Erdogan is ready to listen to the | :56:58. | :57:02. | |
opposition and to agree with the opposition, as far as the opposition | :57:03. | :57:05. | |
does not object to whatever he wants. The pattern is by the decrees | :57:06. | :57:14. | |
which means authoritarian and arbitrary rule. Turkey is drifting | :57:15. | :57:17. | |
more and more towards an authoritarian rule, because now, | :57:18. | :57:24. | |
given the... 145 generals were dismissed last night | :57:25. | :57:39. | |
by a decree, which means half of the total generals in the Turkish army. | :57:40. | :57:44. | |
The Armed Forces are also at its weakest point, state institutions | :57:45. | :57:51. | |
are mainly controlled by President Erdogan and the government, which | :57:52. | :57:55. | |
means everything is now to be described in terms of arbitrariness. | :57:56. | :58:03. | |
Unfortunately, the opposition is weak, scattered and NGOs are also | :58:04. | :58:09. | |
under the threat of the strict regulations by the emergency rule. | :58:10. | :58:20. | |
The judges were given immense jurisdiction for closing, seizures, | :58:21. | :58:27. | |
appropriation of the properties, so it is a very precarious situation. | :58:28. | :58:32. | |
It is a very delicate stage of things at the moment. Yavuz Baydar, | :58:33. | :58:37. | |
thank you for joining us, a journalist with 40 years experience. | :58:38. | :58:42. | |
Sorry about the problems with the line there but I think we could hear | :58:43. | :58:43. | |
most of what he was saying. In the wake of the attacks in France | :58:44. | :58:46. | |
- some French media say they will no longer publish the names and photos | :58:47. | :58:50. | |
of terrorists - Now, let's catch up with the latest | :58:51. | :58:58. | |
weather update. Carol is looking very sunny. | :58:59. | :59:05. | |
Thank you. The rain is moving from the west to the east, but we do have | :59:06. | :59:12. | |
a beautiful picture sent in from one of our BBC Weather Watchers of | :59:13. | :59:20. | |
Swanage in Dorset where it is sunny. You can see already the cloud is | :59:21. | :59:25. | |
romping from the west to east. The whitest cloud is where we do have | :59:26. | :59:29. | |
some rain at the moment. That rain is heaviest anywhere from the | :59:30. | :59:33. | |
Midlands northwards and lighter from the Midlands southwards. The whole | :59:34. | :59:37. | |
lot is driving over towards the North Sea. The hind it, some | :59:38. | :59:42. | |
brighter skies, some sunshine and also the risk this afternoon of some | :59:43. | :59:46. | |
thunderstorms, particularly so across the Midlands. As we drift | :59:47. | :59:49. | |
westwards, you can see we are expecting some spells. The showers | :59:50. | :59:55. | |
will be hit and miss. At times there will be more cloud around. Across | :59:56. | :00:03. | |
the Midlands we have rain extending across Scotland and into Northern | :00:04. | :00:07. | |
Ireland. North of that, a lot of dry and bright weather in Scotland apart | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
from the north and Western Isles and the North Mainland where we will see | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
some showers. The showers this evening and overnight will slowly | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
started to descend southwards. The rain across Northern Ireland and | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
Scotland is doing the same thing, pushing into Wales and the | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
south-west. Just ahead of it, you could catch one or two showers. | :00:28. | :00:37. | |
Tomorrow, here is our weather front bearing that rain. Showery outbreaks | :00:38. | :00:45. | |
pushing down to the south. Behind it, there will be sunny spells or | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
bright spells. Quite a lot of showers across the north and west of | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
Scotland. Temperatures 13 to 22 in the south-east. Then for the | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
weekend, this weather front continues to drift down towards the | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
south-east, and tends to fizzle. For Friday, and into the weekend, we | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
lose the warmth behind that weather front and cool air streams in as a | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
north-westerly dominates the weather but it will only be a breeze so it | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
will feel cooler rather than cold, but it will feel a lot colder by | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
night and paired with what we have been used to in many parts. | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
Saturday, a mixture of bright spells and showers but the emphasis is on | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
more dry weather than wet. Feeling warm in the south-east. Then a quick | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
look at Sunday. Bright spells, sunny spells or showers, but the emphasis | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
is on the dry weather, rather than the wet. If you are camping at any | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
of the festivals it will feel cool by night. | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
I'm Joanna Gosling, welcome to the programme | :01:58. | :01:58. | |
if you've just joined us, coming up before 11. | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
Lloyds has announced it's cutting a further 3,000 jobs and closing 200 | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
more branches by the end of next year. | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
The bank is part state-owned and is warning that uncertainty | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
surrounding the Brexit vote could affect its profits in future. | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
It's already in the middle of cutting 9,000 posts. | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
The bank reported a ?2.5 billion pre-tax profit for the half | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
The first new nuclear power plant in the UK for decades is expected to be | :02:19. | :02:37. | |
given the go-ahead to. The French company EDF will be financing most | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
of the project and is holding a board meeting in Paris where it is | :02:42. | :02:43. | |
expected to approve the investment. A daughter has told this programme | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
how her dad died after doctors wrongly decided that his life | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
could not be saved after he was put on the notorious and now discredited | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
end of life care plan called It looked like was battling for | :02:54. | :03:14. | |
life, not ready to let go. To intervene when it looked like his | :03:15. | :03:15. | |
organs were failing. France is banning terrorist | :03:16. | :03:27. | |

The constant repetition in the new guidelines | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
about diagnosing the dying patient as if they can be diagnosed. | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
There is an inference that you can diagnose somebody as dying | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
and you cannot there is no clinical evidence that you can do that. | :05:44. | :05:46. | |

much to look forward to. The Great Britain team arriving in Brazil | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
ahead of the games. Their training camp is in Belo Horizonte, 273 miles | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
from Rio, where the games open next Friday. British officials believe | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
their facilities are the best in the country. Not the individual national | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
bodies, we are going as Team GB, trying to unite the team, bringing | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
together to take on the world in the greatest challenge of their lives. | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
Russian athletes who have not been banned are arriving in Rio. Much | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
criticism of the IOC, and deposition not to ban the entire Russian team | :09:07. | :09:10. | |

president Thomas Bach has been justifying his decision. It is | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
appreciated, on the one hand, we are sanctioning the system, but on the | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
other hand, we give athletes who are not part of the system the | :09:28. | :09:37. | |
opportunity to demonstrate this. Some of today's football stories. | :09:38. | :09:44. | |
Brendan Rodgers called Celtic's 1-1 draw in their Champions League | :09:45. | :09:47. | |

hopes of qualifying for the group stages for the first time since 2013 | :09:52. | :09:57. | |
was lifted by Leigh Griffiths' late equaliser. The next leg is next week | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
in Glasgow. High-profile pre-season friendlies continue all over the | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
world. Chelsea beat Liverpool, Gary Cahill scoring the only goal of the | :10:07. | :10:11. | |

for the Olympics. One person who will not be there is golf's world | :11:03. | :11:07. | |

New Jersey, the former world number one is hoping for a return to form, | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
after winning four major titles between 2012 and 2014, he has failed | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
to win one since, but he doesn't believe he's far-away. 2012, three | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
to 2014, I averaged one major a year. No reason why I cannot do that | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
for the foreseeable future. That is my benchmark, I feel like I can | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
attain that, and play my best golf. Sometimes it is hard to come up with | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
your best golf each and every week, but I feel it is attainable. The | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
women's British Open is under way at Woburn. Live coverage from one | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
o'clock this afternoon. Prisons are ill-prepared to deal | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
with our ageing population, that's according to the Prisons | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
and Probation Ombudsman who says age-related conditions like dementia | :12:00. | :12:01. | |
are being overlooked, with prison staff unable to properly | :12:02. | :12:03. | |
assess or care for older prisoners. The Ombudsman singled out | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
the example of a 77-year-old inmate who remained handcuffed | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
while in hospital with pneumonia. His condition deteriorated and yet | :12:09. | :12:10. | |
he remain handcuffed For more on this story I'm joined | :12:11. | :12:12. | |

Mary Piper - a trustee at the Restore Support Network | :12:27. | :12:28. | |
which works with older offenders - Ian Weatherhead, Senior | :12:29. | :12:31. | |

the Guardian's Prison Correspondent Peter, you are soon to be director | :12:33. | :12:54. | |
of the Prison Reform Trust. Give us your reaction, to this report? It is | :12:55. | :13:01. | |
a worrying case. Terribly predictable. We publish a report in | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
2003 saying this issue was coming because of the number of people | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
serving longer sentences, older people sentenced for the first time. | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
It is the fastest-growing section of the prison population. You've | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
flagged it in 2003, what is being done to tackle the needs? In some | :13:21. | :13:26. | |
places, really good work. As is so often in prisons, the good work does | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
not occur everywhere. During that period, the resources available to | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
prisons to deal with these complex issues, just as complex as the | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
community, in some ways, more so. Those resources have been cut | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
erratically by 30% in public prisons in the last three years. The most | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
precious commodity, time, time to get to know people, to understand | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
issues, to understand where people's condition may be changing. That is | :13:55. | :14:01. | |
the commodity we have lost. Your organisation represents older | :14:02. | :14:03. | |
prisoners, is this something you have been concerned about? Like the | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
one picked out by the ombudsman today? Yes I'm a trustee of Restore, | :14:07. | :14:16. | |
a user led organisation for older prisoners. This is a matter of | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
concern. I am also a medical practitioner, so I would like to put | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
it into context. Prisons are not islands, they are part of the | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
community. People who come into prison come from the community. | :14:32. | :14:39. | |
Prisons, since 2006, all people in prison are NHS patients. Since the | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
1st of April, 2015, local authorities have a responsibility to | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
meet the social care needs of people in prison. Of course this is a | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
worrying report. A deeply distressing event. Prisons are not | :14:58. | :15:06. | |
there on their own, coping with this. This is a partnership, for the | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
NHS, and for local authorities to assist. In practice, what are you | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
seeing, are they working well together? | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
I think as Peter says, it is patchy. We have only had one year of local | :15:23. | :15:30. | |
authorities being responsible for social care. There was research by | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
the Association of directors of social services, which showed that | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
some prisons are faring people and they are being assessed, but a very | :15:42. | :15:48. | |
large percentage, still that relationship has to be embedded. | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
Ian, you are to mention nurse, anyone who has had or had as a | :15:54. | :15:59. | |
relative with dementia, knows the difficulties of looking after | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
somebody with dementia. Do you think prison is a place for somebody with | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
dementia? That is obviously a very difficult question and will depend | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
on individual to individual. I think if people are developing dementia | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
within an institution, within a prison setting, one has to look at | :16:17. | :16:23. | |
that individual as the disease progresses. Prison environments | :16:24. | :16:32. | |
would cause problems for somebody with dementia. The problem in a | :16:33. | :16:37. | |
prison is it can be harder to identify compared with a community | :16:38. | :16:44. | |
setting. Why's that? Because of the structure and the routine. And | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
because they are not with people who know them well? And we all function | :16:51. | :16:56. | |
better within our own homes. Are you seeing something which could look | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
like dementia in prison might not be dementia or that prison could bring | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
an dementia? It may not bring an dementia but it may not be noticed | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
because of the routine that people go through on a day-to-day basis. It | :17:10. | :17:16. | |
is only when different aspects of the illness, different behaviours, | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
and different idiosyncrasies that somebody may come out with, more | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
confused, more forgetfulness, inappropriate behaviour, that is | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
when Sandie may start flagging up there is an issue but it may go | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
unnoticed for quite a long time. We are also joined by Eric Allison, the | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
Guardian's prison correspondent. You spent many years in prison and I | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
know you have contact with older prisoners. Is this something you | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
have been looking at? Yes, and sadly, the case of this 77-year-old | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
man is not unusual. Elderly and infirm prisoners who cannot possibly | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
present a danger routinely handcuffed when they go to prison. I | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
have come across cases where people have died in handcuffs. Peter, is | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
prison a place for somebody with dementia? Should someone with | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
dementia be handcuffed? Two different issues. People get a | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
sentence from the court. If people are dying, it is possible for people | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
to be released on compassionate grounds. Governors also have the | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
power to release people temporarily, and one of the things that the | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
ombudsman says is that power is not used enough. The handcuffing issue, | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
it is very reminiscent of debates we had years ago about women who were | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
pregnant and were being handcuffed. There were a series of cases which | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
came to light where people said, what on earth are we doing? I think | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
we should have a sense of deja vu that this should be a wake-up call. | :18:51. | :18:58. | |
Again, it is down to time. One of the things prison managers are | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
expected to do is go to a hospital where someone is being cared for and | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
check if the level of security is appropriate. I cannot believe if a | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
manager had had time to go out, they would have said this person needs to | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
be chained up when clearly, they are not only near the end of their life | :19:13. | :19:20. | |
but also not in a position to escape. When you say about letting | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
some doubt on a temporary basis, is that for an assessment? It can be to | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
work, to volunteer, to live. It could be the most compassionate | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
thing to do for somebody who's not coping well in prison and is near | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
the end of their life. It is difficult. Some of these people are | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
serving very long sentences for very serious crimes so there is a | :19:40. | :19:47. | |
judgment in every case. Could almost see a loophole opening up but if | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
dementia becomes a ticket out of jail, someone could put on the | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
symptoms? I do not think that is a real risk. Do you think that is a | :19:56. | :20:03. | |
risk? I suspect not. I think with the appropriate services and a | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
psychiatrist with the right expertise going support the prison | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
staff I think that is a greater reduced risk of that happening. | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
Mary? I agree. I would like to go back to what you were talking about | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
before, about dementia and other conditions, and in research | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
undertaken many years ago, looking at older people in prison, their | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
mental health, actually 30% of the men in that sample had a depressive | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
illness, and only a small percentage dementia. I think that from our | :20:41. | :20:47. | |
perspective, we would want the right services to be available to people | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
in prison. For older prisoners, just like older people in the community, | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
to have access to appropriate services with an accurate diagnosis. | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
Old-age medicine is complex. We had GPs in prison but the older | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
prisoners should be referred to the specialist services in just the same | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
way as they would be if they were living in their own home. And Peter, | :21:15. | :21:22. | |
as you have said, all of that stuff is expensive. Do you see any signs | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
of this being an issue that will be invested in? The huge dilemma for | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
the prison service is the work does not match the resources at the | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
moment. You can either increase the resources or you can reduce the | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
work, and if we sent people to prison for shorter sentences, and | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
not so many people, then we would have less work to do and the people | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
who really needed to be there could get the care they are entitled to. | :21:48. | :21:55. | |
Thank you for joining us. We unfortunately lost our | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
communications with Eric after we heard a brief word from him. In a | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
statement the Ministry of Justice said the | :22:04. | :22:18. | |
Could your office job be bad for your health? | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
According to scientists you should do one hour of physical activity | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
a day to combat the negative effects a desk job could have | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
The new nuclear plant to be built at Hinkley Point in Somerset, | :22:32. | :22:39. | |
is set to get it's final approval later today. | :22:40. | :22:41. | |
The French firm EDF - which will finance most | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
of the 18 billion pound project - is holding a board meeting | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
at which it is expected to approve the investment. | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
Following that agreement, legally-binding contracts will be | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
signed and construction work can begin on what will be the UK's first | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
new nuclear power plant in more than 20 years. | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
I'm joined by Dr Jenifer Baxter, Head of Energy and Environment | :23:05. | :23:07. | |
at the Institute of mechanical Engineers and Molly Scott Cato | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
who is a Green MEP for South West England. | :23:11. | :23:21. | |
Jennifer, what is your response to this? Broadly speaking, I think it | :23:22. | :23:29. | |
is important for the nuclear skills in the UK, it brings high value | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
opportunities for people living in the south-west. And if I can come to | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
you all so, Molly, what is your reaction? I'm very concerned that in | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
order to persuade EDF and the Chinese companies, we have had to | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
offer them a huge price for the electricity and an enormous subsidy | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
so it will be three times the market price and we are tied into that deal | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
for 35 years so it will make it more expensive for us to pay our | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
electricity bills, and will also put pressure on companies who will have | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
to pay high prices and cannot compete with foreign investors. | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
There was talk about this not going ahead because of Brexit. It is | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
clearly seen as a viable proposition? I think Brexit will not | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
make a significant difference. We are very close to France and we will | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
continue to work very closely with them as engineers. And in terms of | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
the costs of the energy that will be produced for consumers, we were | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
hearing there from Molly concerns about that. What is your view on | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
that? The cost of electricity depends on a number of factors. It | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
is not just what a facility is producing but also other types of | :24:50. | :24:52. | |
electricity coming onto the grid. Over the next ten years it is very | :24:53. | :25:00. | |
likely we will see a lot of investment and the renewable sector. | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
It may be that it does not end up being more expensive, but there is | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
no denying that any large infrastructure project like this | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
will cost a significant amount of money. Is there a sustainable energy | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
policy without nuclear in this country? At the moment we are in a | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
position of transition. This transition has come about because of | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
some of the consequences of success, and that is pushing large amounts of | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
renewables onto the grid. At the moment, we cannot quite manage how | :25:30. | :25:43. | |
they are distributed and at what times of day. We have a very limited | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
storage window and we are looking at new innovation around demand site | :25:48. | :25:49. | |
management. We could get to a point where we will be completely | :25:50. | :25:51. | |
sustained by renewable resources? There will always need to be a base | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
level and it goes up and down at different times of the day. What we | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
need to be sure is we don't not have that electricity that all of our | :25:59. | :26:00. | |
hospitals and critical services are well taken care of. In the future, | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
looking ten or 15 years away, there will be a lot of changes. We will | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
learn how to manage the renewables on the grid so very large projects | :26:09. | :26:19. | |
like Hinckley, we may not need so many in the future. Molly Scott | :26:20. | :26:21. | |
Cato, when you hear that argument, how would you respond to that? We | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
could not do it at the moment without a nuclear plant? I agree we | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
are seeing huge changes and innovations in the renewable market | :26:32. | :26:34. | |
and energy generally, which is why it is a bad idea to tie ourselves | :26:35. | :26:42. | |
into this high energy price over 35 years. I am concerned because I | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
represent the south-west and this is an important investment for | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
Somerset, but actually, it will only create 900 permanent jobs and | :26:50. | :26:52. | |
renewables, if we really put our money into them we could create over | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
120,000 jobs just in the south-west. In terms of making sure the lights | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
stay on and everything else in the meantime, is there really any other | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
answer other than this? Hinkley is making it likely we will have an | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
energy gap because it is an untested technology and it will be ten years | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
before we get any energy from Hinkley and the two other places | :27:18. | :27:20. | |
where they have tried to build this reactor have failed and they are | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
years behind schedule. It will be a good idea to put our future in the | :27:25. | :27:32. | |
renewables basket. But it is not there now? It absolutely is there | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
now. Renewable technology is working. We are making it important | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
advances in terms of storage. The boss of the National Grid himself | :27:42. | :27:45. | |
has said the baseload concept is an obsolete concept now and we need to | :27:46. | :27:49. | |
have more diversify technology and focus on matching supply and demand. | :27:50. | :27:55. | |
Jenifer, Molly says renewable mix our resources less reliable? We are | :27:56. | :28:05. | |
in a transition point. At times we have too much electricity and we are | :28:06. | :28:09. | |
paying through consumers at these for companies to turn up and use | :28:10. | :28:13. | |
that electricity. We are not in a place and there is not likely to be | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
at any time soon that we will have storage which will last longer than | :28:17. | :28:21. | |
three or four hours. We do need to have some form of baseload. It can | :28:22. | :28:28. | |
come from nuclear or fossil fuels. We should have some form of carbon | :28:29. | :28:31. | |
capture and storage to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide going into | :28:32. | :28:33. | |
the atmosphere, and nuclear does very well there. It is very low | :28:34. | :28:42. | |
emissions. Doctor Jenifer Baxter and Molly Scott Cato, thank you both | :28:43. | :28:51. | |
very much. Judges at the High Court of Scotland | :28:52. | :28:56. | |
have ruled against the controversial named Person scheme. Judges say some | :28:57. | :29:02. | |
proposals breach rights to privacy and family life. Our correspondent | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
Stephen God and is in Edinburgh. Tell us what the thinking was behind | :29:06. | :29:11. | |
this policy? I think it has been a controversial policy ever since it | :29:12. | :29:15. | |
was introduced a couple of years ago, voted through unanimously but | :29:16. | :29:22. | |
since then the controversy has snowballed culminating in today's | :29:23. | :29:24. | |
decision. I think it is useful to look at the background to this, what | :29:25. | :29:29. | |
exactly is the named person scheme? You touched on it in your | :29:30. | :29:32. | |
introduction. It would mean every child from zero to 18 in Scotland | :29:33. | :29:38. | |
would have a state appointed named person. That would be a teacher or | :29:39. | :29:42. | |
health visitor who would offer additional support to a family, if | :29:43. | :29:47. | |
it was felt it was needed. The Scottish Government say it would | :29:48. | :29:51. | |
provide a vital safety net across communities to ensure that children | :29:52. | :29:57. | |
don't slip through that net. But opponents of its day it is an | :29:58. | :30:01. | |
unjustifiable intrusion into family life. The opponents took their | :30:02. | :30:07. | |
concerns, first of all to the Court of Session here in Edinburgh who | :30:08. | :30:12. | |
dismissed their concerns and said they were guilty of hyperbole. Then | :30:13. | :30:17. | |
they took it to the Supreme Court of the UK. The Supreme Court ruling was | :30:18. | :30:21. | |
today. The judges had two days of evidence in March and since then, | :30:22. | :30:25. | |
the five judges have spent time considering what they heard over | :30:26. | :30:29. | |
those two days, and they have given us their judgment. In some ways, it | :30:30. | :30:34. | |
is a double-edged sword. They have ruled it cannot go ahead in its | :30:35. | :30:41. | |
current form. They say the aim of act is benign but the problem they | :30:42. | :30:45. | |
have with it is the way particularly the Scottish Government are | :30:46. | :30:48. | |
proposing to share information. They say it is unlawful and does not | :30:49. | :30:54. | |
comply with European Convention on human rights. Those defective | :30:55. | :30:59. | |
provisions they say mean it cannot be brought into force. What is key | :31:00. | :31:03. | |
now is the timetable. It was due to come into effect on the 31st of | :31:04. | :31:08. | |
August, so the end of next month. That cannot now happen. The Scottish | :31:09. | :31:12. | |
Government have been given 42 days to come up with a timetable which | :31:13. | :31:18. | |
would mean making the changes which mean the legislation could comply | :31:19. | :31:23. | |
with the Supreme Court findings. The Deputy First Minister John Swinney | :31:24. | :31:26. | |
says they are absolutely committed to the policy. Thank you. Still to | :31:27. | :31:29. | |
come... In the wake of the attacks in France | :31:30. | :31:31. | |

all components of society and primarily our media landscape, | :36:59. | :37:00. | |
restructured by the After the Nice Attack, | :37:01. | :37:02. | |

Christian Makarian, who's the editor of L'Express - | :37:08. | :37:10. | |
a French magazine. And here with me to discuss | :37:11. | :37:12. | |
the decisions is David Aaronivitch, Rachel Johnson, who writes | :37:13. | :37:14. | |
for the Mail on Sunday. Jonathan Russell, from | :37:15. | :37:18. | |
the counter-extremist think tank Qullium, and Jacqui Putnam | :37:19. | :37:19. | |
who survived the London tube Thank you for joining us. Christian, | :37:20. | :37:37. | |
you are and editor in France, will you do the same? I don't think so. | :37:38. | :37:43. | |
Even if there is a very good intention, we can have very many | :37:44. | :37:48. | |
doubts on the effects of the good intention. The intention is good, | :37:49. | :37:54. | |
the media does not want to bury their head in the sand. They take | :37:55. | :38:00. | |
seriously into consideration the possible responsibility of the media | :38:01. | :38:07. | |
in the Isis propaganda throughout Europe. This is good, showing that | :38:08. | :38:13. | |
the media does not want to stay apart. They are also part of the | :38:14. | :38:18. | |
fight against this horrible propaganda. This is for the good | :38:19. | :38:27. | |
part. I have many doubts. As do many other journalists in Paris. Are we | :38:28. | :38:35. | |
sure this is a way of reacting against a sophisticated propaganda, | :38:36. | :38:44. | |
like Isis? In other words, I don't think Isis propaganda is frail, and | :38:45. | :39:05. | |
can be fought by anonymity. I recall anonymity is thought by people | :39:06. | :39:11. | |
changing their identity. Going to Syria, they use other passports and | :39:12. | :39:15. | |
names. They play with identity themselves. I am not sure hiding | :39:16. | :39:23. | |
their identity or faces is a very efficient way to fight this very | :39:24. | :39:30. | |
deep propaganda. That works in the minds and the brains. Nevertheless, | :39:31. | :39:39. | |
I think some of the media has the right to take the decision. Jackie, | :39:40. | :39:44. | |
you survive the 77 bombings, how do you feel when you see the faces of | :39:45. | :39:57. | |
terrorists in newspapers? I would not rather not remember them. The | :39:58. | :40:03. | |
people that should be remembered people who died survive. I don't | :40:04. | :40:17. | |
think giving them the oxygen of publicity is doing any good. I | :40:18. | :40:25. | |
understand everyone needs to know who they are, but the general public | :40:26. | :40:34. | |
do not. The anti-terrorist people do. I don't want to know the name of | :40:35. | :40:39. | |
a man who killed the priest. Is that because of personal sensitivity, or | :40:40. | :40:44. | |
wider concerns about what is in the public interest? It is the second. I | :40:45. | :40:49. | |
don't think it is in the public interest to encourage people to | :40:50. | :40:56. | |
think if they perpetrate such a terrible event, making this happen, | :40:57. | :41:03. | |
I don't think it is good to give them the publicity. They seek it. I | :41:04. | :41:09. | |
would like to deny them that. David, do you think it is right to deny | :41:10. | :41:15. | |
them? The first responsibility that journalists have in a democracy is | :41:16. | :41:18. | |
to give people the information, what is going on, tell the truth. I am | :41:19. | :41:24. | |
afraid to say, other considerations that are important, and sometimes | :41:25. | :41:29. | |
become pre-eminent, they are usually secondary. The first issue, where | :41:30. | :41:37. | |
does the logic of this take you. The thing that most sparks people do | :41:38. | :41:40. | |
acts of terrorism is not that they have been name, but the acts | :41:41. | :41:49. | |
themselves. Should you give publicity to acts of terror? If you | :41:50. | :41:53. | |
suppress it, you might not giving people the information they need. | :41:54. | :41:57. | |
How does the picture gives somebody information present people have a | :41:58. | :42:06. | |
great deal of curiosity. Giving them the capacity to understand the | :42:07. | :42:09. | |
location. Even the picture of the person themselves. It will tell them | :42:10. | :42:13. | |
something about their rage, the kind of person they are. But they think | :42:14. | :42:18. | |
the cost of showing that picture is some kind of incredible publicity | :42:19. | :42:22. | |
that otherwise this person would not get, let's say, on the Internet. | :42:23. | :42:27. | |
Which is actually where probably most of the self sterilising takes | :42:28. | :42:33. | |
place. Rachel, do you think they should be published? No, I don't. It | :42:34. | :42:39. | |
was time for a futile gesture, as someone said. I like the fact that | :42:40. | :42:45. | |
France take the lead, not putting on front pages mugshots of terrorists. | :42:46. | :42:57. | |
It is contagious. 247 people have died in six countries over the | :42:58. | :43:06. | |
summer. We cannot name a single number of these people. The killers | :43:07. | :43:12. | |
have been publicised. Do you think it is the pictures out there? Is the | :43:13. | :43:22. | |
crisis of toxic masculinity. As will the radicalisation and jihadist | :43:23. | :43:32. | |
glorification of these men. It is not the 72 virgins in heaven, it is | :43:33. | :43:36. | |
everybody will be looking at their faces on the front page, that has to | :43:37. | :43:39. | |
be part of it. Quite right not to put them on. What do you think? | :43:40. | :43:45. | |
There are two types of jihadists propaganda. The pieces of video | :43:46. | :43:50. | |
content they will put out, Isis coming through the Internet. The | :43:51. | :43:55. | |
second propaganda is the propaganda of the deed. In the last 53 days, | :43:56. | :44:00. | |
with the 72 attacks claimed by jihadists. They know there will be a | :44:01. | :44:07. | |
constant stream of media attention, causes, motivations, and to the | :44:08. | :44:12. | |
individuals carrying them out, they know they can stay relevant by | :44:13. | :44:16. | |
creating something so barbaric and shocking, the media cannot help but | :44:17. | :44:20. | |
publish it. I'm glad there is a discussion about how they publish | :44:21. | :44:28. | |
it. How they follow that. Whether there is information so the public | :44:29. | :44:31. | |
can keep themselves safe. To understand the authorities are | :44:32. | :44:35. | |
taking appropriate action. I'm glad Le | :44:36. | :44:46. | |
Monde has taken a stand, saying not gay to glorify you in this way, not | :44:47. | :44:53. | |
the publicity they crave. What about the fact it is on the Internet | :44:54. | :44:56. | |
anyway? The social media and Internet aspects is part of this, | :44:57. | :45:03. | |
too. For them to say they are part of the full-spectrum response. Not | :45:04. | :45:07. | |
just looking to the security services, the military and the | :45:08. | :45:10. | |
government to keep us safe, but civil society has a role to play. I | :45:11. | :45:22. | |
think it is Le temporary standing up saying, it is not just their | :45:23. | :45:29. | |
response, what can you do? I am not going to publish stills of Isis | :45:30. | :45:33. | |
propaganda, I am not going to do this, I'm going to remember those | :45:34. | :45:37. | |
who have died. I'm going to do something productive to turn the | :45:38. | :45:38. | |
tide I completely understand the impulse | :45:39. | :45:49. | |
and there are all kinds of places that journalists exercise restraint. | :45:50. | :45:53. | |
We do it when we report suicide, four example. The first thing is, | :45:54. | :45:56. | |
you have to be careful where this leads to. It is not actually the | :45:57. | :46:01. | |
role of the media to do some of the things you have been talking about. | :46:02. | :46:07. | |
You may wish that we do but actually, the information aspect of | :46:08. | :46:10. | |
education and democracy is the main functional role of the media. If you | :46:11. | :46:16. | |
in any substantial way start restricting the information you put | :46:17. | :46:20. | |
out, because you are afraid of the impact that information may have, in | :46:21. | :46:25. | |
that case, you are beginning the act of self censorship, which means you | :46:26. | :46:30. | |
see yourself as part of a mobilised force in society, rather than a | :46:31. | :46:35. | |
force which looks at that society and reports back to itself. David is | :46:36. | :46:45. | |
making a Freedom of Information point. It is not as if news agencies | :46:46. | :46:51. | |
are required by law to put this information in. The editor has | :46:52. | :46:55. | |
exercised his right to do so. I take the point that if mainstream media | :46:56. | :47:00. | |
decides to be much more selective about what information it that is | :47:01. | :47:04. | |
out there, and I think it should, because the daily atrocity factor we | :47:05. | :47:08. | |
have been living through means we all feel we do not want to go to | :47:09. | :47:14. | |
France or go to Turkey. It is having a direct impact on people's live as | :47:15. | :47:21. | |
a result of the media coverage. But if Isis think the mainstream media | :47:22. | :47:29. | |
will not cover it, they might do other things like streaming of | :47:30. | :47:33. | |
atrocities and mounted on their own platforms. Let them do that but I do | :47:34. | :47:38. | |
not like to see it on the front pages. People have a choice about | :47:39. | :47:45. | |
whether to buy a newspaper or listen to the radio. But it is everywhere. | :47:46. | :47:53. | |
In America after the Twin Towers fell, the bereaved families had to | :47:54. | :47:57. | |
join together to ask the media and to get a law, I could be wrong about | :47:58. | :48:04. | |
whether it is a law or not, but to actually stop them filming, showing | :48:05. | :48:09. | |
these films again and again and again. And I met a lady whose mother | :48:10. | :48:18. | |
died on one of the planes, and she worked very hard to make sure that | :48:19. | :48:27. | |
they could stop this, it is almost a pornography, isn't it? People forget | :48:28. | :48:30. | |
that these are real lives which have been affected. We need to know these | :48:31. | :48:37. | |
things are happening but we don't need to glorify the people who are | :48:38. | :48:43. | |
doing it. I take your point, David, about the democracy and the need to | :48:44. | :48:45. | |
know and they need to inform, but we don't need to lionise these people, | :48:46. | :48:54. | |
we don't need to make them into an Isis superstar, we don't. Other | :48:55. | :49:05. | |
media organisations in France are following Le Monde's decision not to | :49:06. | :49:11. | |
publish names, how do you guard against the kind of lionise Asian | :49:12. | :49:14. | |
that we were hearing described there? There are other places making | :49:15. | :49:28. | |
that decision. But what are we talking about? Changing the rules of | :49:29. | :49:41. | |
democracy, regarding the media, just because that is supposedly, it has | :49:42. | :49:49. | |
an effect on, and amplification of Isis propaganda, is also a way to | :49:50. | :49:58. | |
give Isis a victory inside the media landscape in the democracies. I | :49:59. | :50:04. | |
think the answer is not simple, I don't say yes or no, I say it is | :50:05. | :50:10. | |
very complex, to establish a link between their propaganda and what we | :50:11. | :50:17. | |
call the glorification. I have never seen a newspaper, magazine, TV or | :50:18. | :50:25. | |
radio in France or refine the murderers, never. So this notion of | :50:26. | :50:31. | |
glorification has to be defined clearly. That is the first point. | :50:32. | :50:37. | |
The second point is, personally as a journalist, I refuse to give up and | :50:38. | :50:43. | |
change the rules of democracy, just because it can have this or that | :50:44. | :50:46. | |
type of effect that I cannot evaluate. So it also has to be taken | :50:47. | :50:56. | |
in consideration, in this crucial debate, and finally, the last | :50:57. | :51:02. | |
argument, these people, are we sure that they look for fame? Or do they | :51:03. | :51:08. | |
look for blood? You can say that fame can help them to make more | :51:09. | :51:15. | |
massacres of things like that, but you have to demonstrate it. Is that | :51:16. | :51:20. | |
their propaganda is very sophisticated. It is in their way of | :51:21. | :51:30. | |
thinking, or in their way of not thinking, but it is very difficult | :51:31. | :51:33. | |
to fight just with a question of image. It has to be found by the | :51:34. | :51:44. | |
media, in the core of it, in the way it works, for instance, there is a | :51:45. | :51:49. | |
crucial fact which is the age of the murderers. They are all very young | :51:50. | :51:55. | |
people. This has to be examined. And on that point, the fact they are | :51:56. | :51:59. | |
young people, the fact that the names and pictures are out there, | :52:00. | :52:03. | |
that a lot of digging goes on about the lives behind these people who | :52:04. | :52:08. | |
have committed whatever they have committed and stories emerge about | :52:09. | :52:10. | |
the lives which are perhaps that odds with the message they want to | :52:11. | :52:14. | |
put out, which is it is being done in the name of religion, the sort of | :52:15. | :52:21. | |
reasons that are put out there? That is right. And while the French press | :52:22. | :52:25. | |
has been responsible historically on this point, we have to remember that | :52:26. | :52:31. | |
right here in the UK, we live streamed a press conference in which | :52:32. | :52:36. | |
an organisation called jihadi John a beautiful young man. We had a | :52:37. | :52:43. | |
magazine, Rollingstone Magazine put the Boston bomb up on its front | :52:44. | :52:47. | |
cover and called him the bomber as if he was some sort of music star. | :52:48. | :52:54. | |
It is outrageous? Should that be banned? Dodig should be banned and I | :52:55. | :52:58. | |
don't think it is the job of governments or press regulators to | :52:59. | :53:02. | |
say this is how you should do it, but within a free speech debate, I | :53:03. | :53:06. | |
think media editors can take that decision themselves, and if they | :53:07. | :53:09. | |
want to be responsible within that, just as they do want covering | :53:10. | :53:14. | |
stories of suicide, that is fine, and should be encouraged, and should | :53:15. | :53:19. | |
be replicated if they can on social media as well. This is why it has to | :53:20. | :53:24. | |
be taken out of the government 's fear and into the public debate as | :53:25. | :53:28. | |
we are doing now. A lot of people getting in touch. Jay says we should | :53:29. | :53:32. | |
certainly name these murdering terrorists, the more we know, the | :53:33. | :53:36. | |
better we can protect ourselves. Another says all media should not | :53:37. | :53:43. | |
publicise anything to do with Isis or any organisation, a total media | :53:44. | :53:47. | |
blackout needed. Thank you for your comments and thank you for joining | :53:48. | :53:49. | |
us as well. Some news just coming | :53:50. | :54:00. | |
in to us this morning. Stockport's Stepping Hill hospital | :54:01. | :54:02. | |
has confirmed that it's to cut 350 full time jobs and close a ward due | :54:03. | :54:04. | |
to budget pressures. The hospital is ?40 million | :54:05. | :54:07. | |
in deficit and plans The hospital trust says it's hoping | :54:08. | :54:09. | |
the posts can be lost How many times do you get up | :54:10. | :54:13. | |
from your desk and go for a walk - even if it's just to grab some fresh | :54:14. | :54:25. | |
air during your lunch? Well, not enough according | :54:26. | :54:28. | |
to new research. It's found that doing at least one | :54:29. | :54:29. | |
hour of "brisk walking" each day, could offset the risks of early | :54:30. | :54:33. | |
death linked to a Let's talk to Lauretta Johnnie, | :54:34. | :54:35. | |
a personal trainer and the founder of Full Figured Fitness | :54:36. | :54:39. | |
and Lucy Wilkinson, a senior cardiac nurse at the British Heart | :54:40. | :54:42. | |
Foundation. Thank you both for joining us. What | :54:43. | :54:52. | |
do you make of this research, do you think we are spending too much time | :54:53. | :54:59. | |
at our desks and it is damaging our health, the researchers are saying | :55:00. | :55:05. | |
more than smoking? It is interesting looking at these large reports and | :55:06. | :55:08. | |
the suggestion that an hour of brisk walking could offset the eight hours | :55:09. | :55:13. | |
of sitting at a desk a day. It is a subject that we need to approach. | :55:14. | :55:18. | |
Physical inactivity is a huge problem worldwide. The World Health | :55:19. | :55:22. | |
Organisation says it is the fourth leading risk factor for mortality | :55:23. | :55:25. | |
worldwide. It is something we need to address and we need to make it | :55:26. | :55:34. | |
accessible to people and we need people to think, I'm sitting here | :55:35. | :55:37. | |
for eight hours and I need to do something to counteract that and it | :55:38. | :55:46. | |
needs to be through physicality. OK, Lauretta, you have brought some kit | :55:47. | :55:50. | |
in. You can see by their posture that they sit in chairs for a long | :55:51. | :55:57. | |
time. When we get to the stage of having physical pain we think we | :55:58. | :56:01. | |
should address it so we should start addressing it now. So you need to | :56:02. | :56:05. | |
think about your posture but that will not improve your fitness? | :56:06. | :56:12. | |
Definitely. Our muscles can become underactive definitely, and even | :56:13. | :56:16. | |
before you get into work, you can do things like leaving home earlier, | :56:17. | :56:20. | |
walking to an extra bus stop, when you meet people at the bottom of the | :56:21. | :56:27. | |
stairs, you can walk to work. And you can set challenges in the | :56:28. | :56:32. | |
workplace and do exercises together. Things like taking the stairs, | :56:33. | :56:37. | |
walking rather than driving, if you can, if your journey is short enough | :56:38. | :56:42. | |
for that, or many of us doing that or have we got too lazy? These | :56:43. | :56:49. | |
things do add up. It is about doing small, manageable pieces of | :56:50. | :56:55. | |
activity. What we recommend and what the British Heart Foundation | :56:56. | :56:58. | |
recommends is 150 minutes moderate intensity activity a week. We say | :56:59. | :57:03. | |
that is easily broken down into 530 minute periods and you can break | :57:04. | :57:08. | |
that down into ten periods. It does not sound like much? It is about | :57:09. | :57:13. | |
setting yourself and achievable target. If you get to that, | :57:14. | :57:19. | |
brilliant. How minibus are not doing that? Cardiovascular disease is huge | :57:20. | :57:25. | |
in the UK. There are seven million people living with cardiovascular | :57:26. | :57:29. | |
disease and inactivity is a huge risk factor. There are a lot of | :57:30. | :57:34. | |
people not reaching their activity levels. But do you have to get to | :57:35. | :57:39. | |
the stage where you are out of breath and stretching yourself? It | :57:40. | :57:42. | |
is about building up to that point. This report says an hour of physical | :57:43. | :57:48. | |
activity a day can offset sitting at a desk. But one hour is a lot for | :57:49. | :57:53. | |
people who do not do anything on a daily basis, so it is about breaking | :57:54. | :58:00. | |
that down? A quick tip? First and foremost, get the OK from the | :58:01. | :58:04. | |
doctor, you can hold your tummy in, clench or bottom, you can do walking | :58:05. | :58:09. | |
and running, you can do some leg lifts. I have got the band here. You | :58:10. | :58:15. | |
can do some stretches with the band so it is a nice chest stretch | :58:16. | :58:19. | |
breathing in and out, moving your arms to the side and bring it | :58:20. | :58:24. | |
forward, so there is a lot you can do. Lots of good tips there. Thank | :58:25. | :58:26. | |
you very much. It sparked the greatest | :58:27. | :58:28. | |
transformation in British history. It had nothing like the impact | :58:29. | :58:34. | |
of the railways. Discover how the steam revolution | :58:35. | :58:43. | |
