31/05/2017 Victoria Derbyshire

Hello, it's Wednesday, it's nine o'clock, I'm Victoria Derbyshire,

A breast surgeon accused of playing God and carrying out unnecessary

operations on patients is due to be sentenced at Nottingham Crown Court

this morning. Paterson exploited me

as a person for his own ends. There were hundreds of female

victims. We'll be hearing from some

of his other victims later. Also on the programme -

the latest in our election On the picket line with banners,

it's just not me, sorry! . And Wiltshire Police say they're

hunting a "dangerous" prisoner - believed to be armed with a razor

blade - who escaped from hospital Welcome to the programme,

we're live until 11am. Any minute now Labour leader

Jeremy Corbyn is due to give a speech in London focussing

on the NHS and education - And a little later in the programme

we'll talk about a rise in bullying for online gamers -

if you've got expereince do get in touch - use the hashtag

#VictoriaLive and if you text, you will be charged

at the standard network rate. Our top story today,

police say a "dangerous" prisoner, believed to be armed with a razor

blade, is on the run after escaping Michal Kisiel, who's 30,

had been taken to hospital in Salisbury with a head injury

before fleeing from guards Police are warning the public

not to approach him. Greg Dawson is here

with more details. What happened? Last night Michal

Kisiel was found in his cell at HMP Erlestoke prison. They decided he

needed hospital treatment so he was taken to a hospital in Salisbury.

Police say they believe he overpowered two prison guards and he

escaped with a razor blade. They are concerned he is dangerous and they

are warning the public to stay away from him. If they see him to call

999. We have a fuse still images, they say he's around five or six

with noticeable tattoos on his neck. He was wearing grey tracksuit

bottoms, a blue T-shirt and trainers. The most noticeable thing

is he had a head injury. Police say he is not local to the area, he

doesn't have any money or a phone, so there is a possibility he will be

spotted by members of the public. Why was he in prison? He was

sentenced last year after he held a mother and teenage daughter at

knife-point in their own home and threatened them. He was sentenced to

five years at HMP Erlestoke. Police are concerned he might encounter a

member of the public so if anyone does see him, dial 999 and don't

approach in. Thank you. Now the rest of the morning's news. A huge car

bomb in Coble has killed at least 80 people and killed 350. It happened

in the diplomatic quarter of the city -- Kabul. Our correspondent is

at the scene and sent this report. This is the scene of today's attack

here in Kabul the Afghan capital. Police have cordoned off this area.

Nobody is allowed to go further than this. But, as you can hear,

ambulances and police troops are arriving to the scene, some are

leaving the scene. They are taking some injured people. SIRENS. You can

see this vehicle has taken people who are hurt. It is a chaotic scene.

It was a massive, massive blast. People tell me they haven't seen

anything like this in many years. As you can see, all the windows and

some doors are shattered. Nobody has yet taken responsibility for the

attack. But in spite of several demands from the international

community, the insurgents and the Taliban have not said yes to stop

violence in the holy month of Ramadan.

A 30-year old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder,

after the bodies of a woman and two children were discovered

The discovery was made by officers investigating reports of a fuel leak

Police say they're not looking for anyone else.

The NHS could have to raise an extra half a billion pounds a year,

if British pensioners living in other EU countries have to return

That's the warning from a health charity this morning.

The Nuffield Trust says the cost of treating them on home soil rather

than abroad could be almost a billion pounds, as

For many British pensioners it is the appeal of retirement

in the sunshine that attracts them to move to countries

But having the same health care rights as the locals

It's part of a reciprocal scheme which the UK pays around

That covers nearly 200,000 British expatriates living

But it's a deal potentially under threat when Brexit happens,

People, if they had to return from countries where they live

in the EU to here, retired people, could cost the NHS more money.

Beyond that we probably would need more hospital beds and more nurses

to give those people the standards of care they require.

Unless a deal is struck the trust says pensioners

If they will return to Britain for treatment it could cost

Last year, spending on the NHS in England was around ?102 billion.

The Nuffield trust estimates the NHS would need around 1600 more doctors,

nurses, and other workers to provide this care.

In response, the Conservative Party say protecting the rights of UK

nationals in the EU is one of their priorities

But the Liberal Democrats say this report is evidence that

Theresa May's extreme version of Brexit will be a disaster

for the NHS, putting huge pressure on hospitals.

Labour are yet to comment but have previously accused the Conservatives

For the first time, a British police force is to recruit people directly

to become detectives - without them having to first work

The Metropolitan Police hopes the scheme will fill some of the 600

detective vacancies in the force, and attract people with different

skills and backgrounds who might not otherwise want to join.

Abuse and bullying in the online gaming world is a growing problem

according to new research from anti-bullying

Of the 2,500 young gamers they surveyed, half had been

Here's our technology correspondent Rory Cellan-Jones.

For 16-year-old Bailey, video games have been a big part

of his life and were once an escape when he was getting

He enjoys pitting his skills against other players online,

but what he doesn't like is the abuse he sometimes

He first experienced bullying in games when he was ten and it's

If you're being bullied at home, you come home and play your computer

and you are just getting more abuse thrown at you.

It's just going to put you off doing anything social.

The charity Ditch The Label surveyed 2,500 young gamers.

57% said they had been subjected to hate speech in an online game.

47% had received threats and 40% had had unwanted sexual contact.

What's changed over the last decade is that more and more games

are played online and that means young gamers are encountering

anonymous people from around the world and chatting with them.

That can of course, be very positive, but it also lays them open

for the kind of dangers we've seen elsewhere in the online world.

The anti-bullying charity worked with the online game

Habbo Hotel to research young gamers' experiences.

I think what's so shocking is the fact that it's

We had gamers telling us this was just part

Bailey says he has now learned not to let abuse get to him,

but he wants the games companies to do more to watch over

what happens online and to act to stop the bullies.

And we'll have more on that story later in this programme

when Victoria will speak to some young gamers who have

been at the receiving end of bullying online.

Olivia Newton-John has revealed she has breast cancer again,

25 years after recovering from her original diagnosis.

The Grease star has postponed her upcoming tour dates

after discovering that the disease has spread to her spine.

The singer and actress is undergoing treatment,

and expects to return to the stage later this year.

That's a summary of the latest BBC News - more at 9:30.

Thank you for your messages already about bullying while gaming. This

e-mail says "I've been an avid gamer for years, bullying and harassment

is ever present. Where young children are playing 18 rated games,

ultimately resulting in them being exposed to the behaviour when

competition causes friction. However, the simple solution is to

join a different game session where it may be friendly, or to block

horrible people". "My 16-year-old brother is autistic and is often

bullied online for his speech impediment". And this tweet, "The

gaming community should be a place of togetherness, people who bully

others online should be ashamed, it is deplorable". We are waiting for

Jeremy Corbyn to attend an event where he will refer to the party's

promises on the NHS and education. You can see he's being introduced,

it looks like he's being introduced. You'll be there any second so we

will bring you some of his speech live.

Do get in touch with us throughout the morning -

use the hashtag #VictoriaLive and if you text, you will be charged

Let's get some sport now with Holly Hamilton,

and it seems football's best-kept secret will finally

We are just waiting for this to be rubber-stamped by the board today.

As we were talking about yesterday it might not be a popular decision

with some fans. He's faced so much criticism over the past season, a

season that saw Arsenal fail to make the top four in 20 years. But

remember they did beat Chelsea on Saturday to win the FA Cup.

Now, here is Jeremy Corbyn. Our NHS, our children's schools is anything

but strong and stable. Over the last seven years they've starved public

services who rely on those resources because the Conservatives have

chosen at every turn tax giveaways for the few over public services for

the many. Patients are suffering ever longer waits and crowded wards.

Those who need care are left without it. A and maternity units are

threatened with closure. Children are crammed into overcrowded and

crumbling classrooms. Schools are sending home begging letters to the

parents. It has is to change. Together, we have the power to make

it change on the 8th of June. Labour will invest in our people's schools

and hospitals. We will cut school class sizes not cut schools. Take 1

million people of the National Health Service waiting lists, not

add millions more. Ensure that people get the care that they

deserve, and guarantee the dedicated staff a pay rise. Another five years

of the Conservatives would be disastrous for our public services.

If they carry on as they are now, then by 2022, there could be 5.5

million people on the NHS England waiting list. 1.5 million older

people with an met care needs. 650,000 people crammed into primary

classes of over 30. Families left almost ?450 worse off her child as

the result of the Tories' plan to scrap free school meals to 1.7

million of our children. That's the Conservative vision for Britain.

Don't take my word for it. Last week, the IFF is made clear the

Conservative manifesto promises no new money to the National Health

Service, and a real terms cut in pupil funding for school. That

vision doesn't have to become a reality. On the 8th of June, there's

only one party that will improve our public services for the many, not

the few. That is the Labour Party. We can do better than this. Labour

will build an NHS and social care system for the many. We'll invest 37

billion into our NHS, and take 1 million people off the waiting list

by 2022. We'll invest 8 billion in social care over the next five years

and lay the foundations for a National Care Service to integrate

health and social care. Labour will build a national education service

and invest in our children's futures. We will cap class sizes at

34 five, six and seven-year-olds. Labour will provide free school

meals to all primary school children. The Conservative Party

will Take That away and replace it with a thimble full of rice crispies

for each child. In the fifth Richards country of the world it's

not acceptable to leave people languishing in A departments on

trolleys in hospital corridors without care at all.

We believe that those who can afford it should pay just a little bit more

to fund care, dignity and opportunity for all. It now gives me

great pleasure to introduce our Health Secretary, John Ashworth, to

take you through the details of our concerns over the National Health

Service. We will leave Jeremy Corbyn there, leader of the Labour Party,

reiterating his party's promises ahead of the general election. Cut

class sizes, from school meals for primary school children, take a

million people of NHS waiting lists, and the paper that he will reverse

cuts in corporation tax, and tax what Labour says will only be the

top 5% of earners. More reaction to come later on. Next this morning,

part two of our new series, election Blind dates.

Every day this week, we'll be bringing you a blind date

over lunch between two people with very different views -

will they come to blows or walk away friends?

Up today are Georgia Toffolo, better known as "Toff"

from the Channel Four TV series Made in Chelsea, and anti-austerity

One lives a champagne lifestyle, the other was once on the breadline.

So this is how they got on - and there is the occasional strong

There's an election on and people are talking politics.

So, what happens when you send two people with opposing

I'm, like, oh my God, this has been so long.

You see people that are sat there that can go and work

and choose not to, they choose to go and sign on, it angers me.

When people stand at the dispatch box and tell me there's

more money in education, I look around and I

Because it's not in my children's school.

How would I describe myself politically?

I'm Jack Munro, and I'm a food writer

And when I went back to work I couldn't work

I ended up in quite a shoddy personal situation.

It's something that never leaves you.

Not eating for three days in a row so you can feed your child,

or sitting opposite him, hoping he leaves some of his dinner

We've been texting my friend about fox hunting.

He's, like, belting, belting, marvellous.

It's the number one issue facing Britain apart from inheritance tax.

I'm best known for being on a TV programme called Made In Chelsea.

I'm very lucky, I went to a nice school and I live

But I'm not, I don't know, I'm not stuck up.

But when people do think of me, and also my name,

my nickname is Toff, which is, like, a joke

So people have so many, you know, thoughts about me before

I'm a member of the Conservative Party,

and I have been for about eight years now.

I can't comprehend why anyone my age would support a Labour Party.

I'm trying to remember what I'm like on a date.

I'm, like, oh my God, it's been so long, literally.

Yeah, good, fine, quite nervous, but hungry.

First things first, right, so, on the political spectrum

So, centre, left-wing, right-wing, I'm about here.

OK, so we're equally divergent from the centre.

Yeah, not horribly right wing, but definitely not centre.

OK, fine, we've established where we are.

I'm awkwardly wriggling out of my coat for a second.

I truly believe we should remain in the European Union.

And I got to a point where the weight of the decision

literally felt like it was entirely mine, so I thought, you know what,

I'm just going to leave it to people who are either more qualified

to make the decision, or think they're more qualified,

to do it, and I'll just go with the will of

Oh my goodness, but I think we're so lucky to have

Referendums are, like, political engagement at their highest.

I really regret it, I voted to remain, I wish that I'd have...

Enough other people voted to leave that you've got what you wanted.

I think it's a really positive thing for our country that we're leaving.

Every time I go eat something, or make a point at the same time,

I can imagine that our views on social

I think what the Conservatives have done in the past seven years,

with scaling back welfare payments, is overwhelmingly positive.

And their support has been cut left, right, and centre.

I've got friends who are in bed 23 hours a day, cannot

look after themselves, and have to rely on two separate

care appointments where someone turns up for ten minutes

Imagine being locked in your bedroom for 22 hours a day.

I completely understand, but this is where I think

No, that's the result of Conservative cuts.

There's only a certain amount of welfare that they

I watch television programmes and you see people that are sat

there who, you know, are clever, you know,

I think with any system, every system is open to abuse.

Until I was actually in that situation myself,

physically freezing, starving, heating turned off,

not eating for three days in a row, trying to top myself and my bathroom

because I didn't want to carry on, basically.

Yet, but does not and you also that some of the funding that could have

gone to you when you were really in need was going to people

I think less than 1% of benefit payments are fraudulent.

I'd have brought it, but I didn't think...

Yeah, but you're not going to own up to being a benefits cheat, are you?

Why watch benefit cheats, if you think that's the right term

for them, carefully, and not people who are avoiding large amounts

of tax, scribbling their money in the Cayman Islands?

I agree, but I think all of it needs to be watched.

It's not just, like, a one issue kind of thing.

I think a flat rate of tax is a lot better.

And you work really hard for what you earn.

If you tip over a tax bracket, it's as though the government

Do you think we all just need a certain amount to live on,

I think in this country, right, if you work hard

You don't agree that in the UK right now if you work your EXPLETIVE off

No, I know loads of people who work their EXPLETIVE off,

cleaning shops, cleaning trains, driving trains.

I also know people who've got their jobs through family connections,

you basically swan around drinking in private members

It's not a stereotype, I know these people.

And you think, why should the health care assistant

wipe their EXPLETIVE on 11 grand a year, and the guy

who was basically born into the banking role the earning

who was basically born into the banking role be earning

I don't think hard work and income are equivalent in this country.

And if I see, you know, when I look at my accounts,

if I think, oh gosh, if I earn more next month

I'm going to have pay even more to the taxman, it angers me.

Do you ever turn jobs down just because you don't

Of course not, but it doesn't make me think, oh, God,

I think we do all need a certain amount to live on.

And if you learn more you should contribute.

You see, that's where our political ideologies are so different.

So, tell me, what are your views on fox hunting?

I think if somebody came up with it now as a sport, and went, I know,

we're going to get a pack of dogs to chase an animal through

the woods, they'd be, you know, they'd be tried and sent

These foxes need to be culled anyway.

Because they're out of control in the countryside.

Come on, people like fox hunting because it's a chance to put

all the gear on and get on your horse and have a good

It's a great, old, British tradition.

But there are a lot of great old British...

Slavery was a great, old British tradition.

I just think that it's disingenuous to suggest that people are partaking

in fox hunting to help the farmers out.

But do you agree that, you know, in the democracy that we live in,

Theresa May is not wrong for putting it to the House of Commons?

You know, it's a free vote, all the MPs can vote on it.

People who vote on it, and I'd like to think

So, I read somewhere this morning the Lib Dems,

They were, like, sorry, that was mean.

But, they were talking about legalising cannabis.

For me, you know, smoking cannabis is an addiction.

It is definitely true that it does cause mental problems if you smoke

So, for me, I think I'd find it deeply distressing

I don't know, because, cards on the table, I'm

Yeah, stone cold sober, I was drinking a bottle

But I could go into my local corner shop and buy a bottle of whiskey

and the guy behind the counter would joke about how much I drank,

I think I would have done myself a lot less damage if I could have

Than downing a bottle of whiskey to go to bed.

You know, drugs are drugs for a reason.

I know, I'm not saying I have a spliff in the evening,

but I think I would've done myself a lot less damage.

What's your views, then, you said on security,

surveillance, the fact that, apparently, the government can hack

into our mobiles at any time, how do you feel about that?

If it's helping to keep us safe, I think, go ahead.

I don't think I'd want Theresa May looking through my selfies.

I don't think I'd want Diane Abbott being head of MI5, but, you know,

Quick, let's find something else we agree on.

I was mortified, the first time I saw the picture of her,

have you seen her Russell and Bromley shoes...

I nearly wore them today, actually, but they didn't go with my trousers.

I love that, you and Theresa May have got the same shoes.

Oh, my God, it's worse than that, we've got about four or five

I know it's awful for me to say that, but, it's a shame

that he is the leader of the Labour Party.

I think he was a very good campaigner.

It's great for me, as a Tory, I'm loving it, they're

getting away with murder, but, you know, in the Commons,

the standing party that's in power must be scrutinised and questioned.

And I worry Jeremy Corbyn isn't doing that.

I think my vote for Labour is for good Labour MPs who deserve this.

Have you got any other political heroes, historically?

I know, I was looking at your badge, and I thought, rude,

It's such a shame that I wasn't around then.

See, I take the opposite view of that.

I skipped school on the day of her funeral so that I could go.

Yeah, I went, yeah, amazing, amazing lady.

I'm what's known as non-binary transgender.

I was born a woman, and I'm a female, but I went through a phase

of taking testosterone to basically make myself more masculine.

I'm in a really girly phase at the moment,

so it's really hard to, kind of, like, explain.

It really is day to day, how you feel?

It's been a bit of an odd one when, like, with people and dating

because they've started dating, like, a really feminine version

of me, and then I wander downstairs one morning with,

like, a chest binder on, and, like, a suit and a waistcoat and a tie.

Oh, by the way, sometimes I like to dress up as a man.

Yeah, yeah, it's fine, it's, like, nine quid, it's fine.

And you're not horribly left wing, and I'm not horribly right-wing.

But, where we at now, have I moved you along a bit?

I've shuffled a bit more to the centre.

And actually, I must say, I hate to admit it, maybe

you have a little bit, because you said a few

things and I thought, wow, I've never thought of that.

If we go out again, we might end up somewhere in the centre.

Go and see my friends, and they'll be, you've changed.

Yeah, they'll be, like, what happened to you?

I feel like I'm sending a personal hero of yours.

If you could just put your arms over each other.

I didn't know what to expect, because I was, like,

super, super nervous, and, yeah, I had a nice time.

You said a few things that I'm a kind of, hit home a bit,

because I hadn't given some of the things you brought

So, it's quite thought-provoking for me.

Because I think often you can be quite ignorant,

politically, I think, and I think I'm guilty of that.

I've got friends were quite conservative,

They are, like, my Nan and her friends, something like,

So, it was quite nice for me to meet a young person

When I think about, I don't know, kind of, benefits, I think,

bearing in mind what you said, that's really stuck in my head.

Do you think you're going to come out hunting

I'm not sure I'm ready to go out on horseback.

And then go right some awful piece for the Guardian about how terrible

I like that, though, I like that about you.

You'll never find me on one of those.

See, I was going to say, I would take you to volunteer

at a food bank, but now you said a march, I'm going to

paint you a placard, and we can go out writing.

No, over the picket line, with banners, that's just not me.

Do you think, would you go for lunch again?

It is, will have a Made In Chelsea, lefty spin off, or something?

And they are friends, extraordinary! This USA's "Election blind dates is

A breast surgeon - accused of playing God and carrying

out unnecessary operations on patients - is due to be sentenced

at Nottingham Crown Court today, for intentionally wounding nine

Lawyers say it's possible that hundreds of Ian Paterson's patients

could have undergone surgery for no medical reason.

Some victims are calling for him to be given the maximum punishment -

Over a hundred more women have come forward since April to say he may

have exaggerated or invented cancer risks in them.

We can talk now to three of those women affected,

Bethan Waite and Lynn Rollinson, who're outside the Crown Court

in Nottingham, waiting for that sentencing,

Sarah Jane Downing is in Birmingham this morning, all three women

And in the studio is solicitor, Tom Jones, from Thompson's,

the firm who represent the majority of Paterson's victims.

Jane, Paterson has been found guilty of 17 counts of wounding with

intent. What would be an appropriate sentence for this man? Victoria,

it's so difficult. I don't know how we could ever really measure what he

did to so many people. And it quite that to a sentence. I think it has

to be the maximum but I'm not even sure if that's enough, to be honest.

He performed an unnecessary lumpectomy or new, wider you think

he did that? I don't know. He knew how terrified I was of the idea of

surgery, he knew how I absolutely didn't want to have an operation,

and then he spent a lot of time convincing me and terrifying so

that, well, I agreed, against my better judgment. He said that if I

left it much longer the lump was growing really rapidly. It would be

a huge problem. And it would be so much worse to fix and reconstruct if

it was about to get much bigger. So, have it done quickly and have a

smaller operation, all white and have something much worse. So I felt

the only option was to go for the smaller one. Of course. How

difficult has it been to try and rationalise the fact you had been

put through surgery for no reason? I can't rationalise it. It's too much

to be able to process. I've been distracting myself by thinking about

the campaign and starting the support group, and trying to do

something adjacent, rather than actually address it because I don't

know how to address it. Tom James, you represent many of his victims.

What do you want to see, what do they want to see when it comes to

sentencing today? I think in terms of sentencing it's part of the

closure process for those who have had their lives devastated by this

man. It's important he is punished in a way that is appropriately

dramatic. It isn't a light sentence, that's absolutely right, because

hundreds of women and men have been affected by his absolute callousness

against them. It is quite unfathomable what he did. What's

your view about why he did it? It's difficult to gauge. I wonder whether

it was money, he was being paid for these operations privately. Whether

it was him being in charge, he was apparently charming but bullying. I

think there's a whole host of factors, but whatever it was, he got

away with it for a very long period of time. Your firm is launching a

campaign called patients before profits, because you claim through

this case there is a divide between how NHS patients are treated and

private patients are treated. There is a very clear divide. The NHS in

these cases, they basically put their hands up, said there was a

mistake and suspended him as soon as there were suspicions. They have

paid compensation where it is appropriate and those cases are now

closed. The private health provider, Spire, simply hasn't done that. We

are now in a situation where they say that they rented him a room and

have no responsibility and they are not going to pay. We have a

situation in which the -- they advertised as being available, they

promoted him, the after-care was carried out on those premises and

yet they are saying they will not pay out for those people butchered

by him. What levels of compensation had been paid out by the NHS? It

varies depending on how the women were dealt with. It may be a futile

and, it can be potentially tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.

There are women who have died as a result of his failures. The scandal

is huge. The issue has to be that the private health care sector has

to have the same responsibilities and deal with patients in the same

way as the NHS. It is true to say that you've had another 100 patients

come forward since his trial began in April. That's right. A lot of

people wouldn't necessarily have realised, you are treated by a

doctor, you wouldn't necessarily have thought it was him. Then you

see his face and you think, he did me. That's why we have people coming

forward even today as a result of this. Sarah Jane, I've spoken to a

number of patients previously who said they would like to see a public

enquiry into how this happened, how it was allowed to go on for so long

and affect so many women and men. Would you like to see that?

Absolutely. I think it really is necessary to know just exactly who

did what and why they turned a blind eye for so long. I think people were

probably colluding because they were making a lot of profit. But profit

was going to Spire health care. We want to know exactly what was done

and how and why. We know some people's bills were padded with

things they didn't have a have. There is a lot there to be looked

at, I think. How do you feel today as you awake this sentence? Very,

very emotionally on edge, very stressed. It's so difficult to know

what's going to happen. I'm deeply worried that it won't be anywhere

near enough. I deeply worried everyone will be really upset. It's

difficult today. I understand. Thank you for talking to us. Thank you

very much, Sarah Jane Downing and Tom Jones from Thompsons. That

sentencing is at Nottingham Crown Court today and we will bring it to

you and BBC News as soon as it happens.

Caroline Lucas is next to go for a drive with me in my white van. Hear

her talk about drugs, tears and bath before 10:30am. I suppose the Green

Party and the broader Green movement, I think we haven't done

nearly as well as we needed to do. That is that about 10:15am. Every

Wednesday we are looking at how the election is playing out on twitter.

Every Wednesday up until the election, we're looking at how

it's playing out on Twitter, with data crunchers from think tank,

Demos, who've been analysing millions of tweets since

Let's talk now to our two chaps from Demos - Josh Smith -

he's the techy one - and Carl Miller - he'll look

beneath the data to tell us what it all means.

We have been interested in opening up the Democratic Abeid, letting

people contact politicians who want to represent them. Then we found

there is 1400 candidates we have been following on twitter since the

campaign started. From conservatives, labour, Lib Dems,

Ukip and the SNP. We have been looking at the way they have been

tweeting and engaging people, but this potential for people to contact

candidates and say I am not sure about this policy, I thought you

were really good. To actually talk to people it only works if it is a

two-way street. What we are looking at is the candidates from those

parties who have been the best at replying to people on the platform,

who have got back to people's concerns, and we have a top five of

the top candidate from each party who was replying the most. Let's

have a look. So Richard Gadsden is the top reply,

the number one on the list. That's right, Richard Gadsden, the most

prolific reply of all, a Liberal Democrat candidate in Manchester. It

was that perhaps one of the reasons he replies so much is that he uses

Twitter to talk to his mates. He is outspoken isn't he? Very. We looked

at his tweets, if we have a second general election this year, I

getting I can stand, will have some sort of a breakdown. This was 11

hours ago, this is a tired candidate, is it not? I need a

break. I have no clue about anything any more. Exactly, this is Twitter

showing as the man behind the candidate, someone who has ran

ragged on the campaign trail, is exhausted, nervous, fighting for

history of being a politician. It is really showing us something you just

wouldn't see in the airbrushed PR releases of the past. And it has

definitely not gone through Lib Dem HQ Kamui thing. These are the best

at replying on Twitter. Dr Teck Khong from Ukip is interesting. He

is a recent defector from the Conservatives. You can see him

laying into his former party. What is interesting about the way he

engages with people, the replies here sending on twitter, is very

much toeing the party line. He sees it as a platform to get the hashtags

wants to get out there, to use the official party hashtags, and a lot

of his replies are just people saying thank you for the follow,

please vote for me. So much more formal. Much less personal. Carl,

Will Quince is the top Tory twitter. He does get into arguments on big

issues. Will Quince, our top Tory reply. But what really Bill -- Will

Quince has been engaging in the rough-and-tumble world of digital

politics, a world that is in the sense of poorer and more immediate.

It only takes a second to send a tweet. Candidates perhaps tired like

Richard Gadsden can also sometimes lose their temper and get stuck into

the issues and debates with candidates and members of the

public, many of whom disagree with them from all over the country.

Next, Jess Phillips from Labour, tell us about her. We have talked a

bit about disagreements, one of the interesting things about social

media com you get trolled. Especially if you are a public

figure. People occasionally lay into you. Jess Phillips is interesting

because she responds to those attacks, she tells people to get

back under your rock, she is very verbose. We looked at the tweets she

was sending that aren't retweets, and seven Dibusz under the tweets

she sent herself are actually replies to people. We will see some

hopefully. What does this tell us about her? That she is not afraid on

social media to show us a side of what her personality is. Looking

through her Twitter feed get an idea of what she might be like as a

person and that is another really interesting thing that people

haven't necessarily been able to do. Let's have a look. Hi Jess, are you

able to do anything to project this? OK, you can see her personality

coming through, clearly they have not been through Labour HQ. Full VSM

PE, John Nicolson is the most engaged. He is interesting because

he is the link between social and mainstream media. He often replies

to shows that cover politics. He is a candidate chipping in. This is a

tweet from your show itself on Monday.

This is representing how social and mainstream media is mixing in

strange and sometimes mysterious ways to both come together to

produce the kind of public debate we are having in the country. So which

candidates exist in a social media desert? We looked at people who are

tweeting a lot but never replying, never using this ability to directly

reach out to people and to respond to things. We had our top guns,

these are the five worst candidates. So I think the big difference

between the top and bottom five is the top five early understand

something about five don't, that social media is a new kind of two

-ish treat, a place to listen and a place to talk, as well as a place to

broadcast. That is probably a good thing. We did research back in 2015

in the height of the last election in the UK. We did a poll of social

media users and we found that over 70% of them thought the Democratic

debate was being in some way improved by what was happening on

social media, they could understand the candidates on the issues and

then you better what the party stood for. About half of social media

expected and wanted their candidates to be on social media. Replying to

candidates and engaging with constituents. That is the big

question between the bottom five. Why does it matter if they are all

not putting all our war on replying? As Carl said, they are potentially

missing an opportunity to engage with people straight into the own

timelines to respond to issues being raised. It is about whether politics

is a conversation or a pin board. Is it about politician shouting out and

trying to frame issues as they want or is this a channel that can be

used to wield power better too, for politicians to be a bit too listen

more easily and readily to people all over the UK and respond to the

issues and concerns we have got? That is the heart of what we are

trying to talk about today. You have talked about the abuse some

politicians get. A Jeremy Corbyn tweet last night didn't go down too

well with plenty of Conservatives. Yes, the reaction to this tweet

perhaps explains why people are reticent to put themselves out there

on social media, especially if you are in a position like Jeremy

Corbyn. Here we have a tweet. The response to this has been really

interesting, in that people have replied saying, surely we don't need

Jeremy Corbyn in order to further these people's, to unlock these

people's talents? So the potential for putting that message out there

and it being just laid upon and kind of attack is always there. It is

quite a dangerous potentially environment for especially

politicians. OK, we are going to show James cleverly's response and

some other responses. James cleverly is a Conservative candidate and what

he has done is effectively taken photographs of many other black

Asian and minority ethnic candidates and said for example here a

Conservative MP and a conservative assembly member waiting for our

potential to be unlocked by Jeremy Corbyn. All of these are obviously

sarcastic. Shaun Bailey, another candidate potentially. Said Kemal,

leader of the Conservatives reformist group. And so it goes on.

Gentlemen, thank you very much. You are

Jeremy Corbyn has been claiming the future of the NHS and England's

schools are at stake in this election. Let's talk to Norman

Smith. Mr Corbyn actually looking pretty relaxed this morning as he

was setting up what he claims are the risks patients and the elderly

will face from another five years of Conservative government. They have

produced this dossier here which they think details the fact that

something like 1.5 million people will be waiting for care if the

Tories win, and there will be 1.8 million people more waiting for

hospital treatments, and something like 650,000 schoolchildren in

classes over 30 or so. Labour by contrast, he says, would plough 37

billion into the NHS, 8 billion into social care, and really you sense it

is trying to crank this election back on the Mr Corbyn's favoured

territory, which of course is public services. Labour will invest in our

people, schools and hospitals. We will cut school class sizes, not

schools. Take a million people off the National Health Service waiting

list, not add millions more. Ensure that people get the care they

deserve, and guarantee the dedicated staff a pay rise. Another five years

of the Conservatives would be disastrous for our public services.

If they carry on, as they are now, then by 2022 there could be 5.5

million people on the NHS England waiting lists. 1.5 million older

people with unmet care needs. 650,000 people crammed into primary

school classes of over 30. Families left almost ?450 worse off per child

as a result of the Tories's plan to scrap free school meals to 1.7

million of our children. One of the tricks in an election is to talk

about what you want to talk about but not necessarily what the media

want you to talk about. I guess a lot of us this morning wanted to

press Mr Corbyn about that leak of the discussion paper, which was put

for Mr Corbyn, setting out some proposals on immigration, and one of

them was this idea of allowing unskilled workers in from outside

the EU. Now that is currently blocked, the so-called Tier three

access is blocked, but this is cash and paper was apparently put before

Mr Corbyn. Team Corbyn say it is not part of their policy but they

wouldn't really engage with what were their policies this afternoon.

In contrast, Theresa May, of course, when she was pressed about this

leaked document was more than happy to talk about it. Just listen. From

day one as Prime Minister, I'd been clear that I want to ensure we are

supporting and looking after British people, and if we look at people who

are living in the European Union, I'm clear that I want to see an

agreement where their rights are protected. Of course it's reciprocal

for EU citizens living here in the UK. That's why it's so important. We

haven't just given those rights to EU citizens here in the UK, we are

looking after UK citizens living in the European Union. I want to see

reciprocal arrangements so we can look after them. As British Prime

Minister I have a care for British people living in the EU. It is a

funny thing, we are now immigration is a massive issue but trying to get

detailed answers from either of the main parties about what they will

draft a freedom of movement has ended is proving a hopeless cause.

But I want to be seen to spell out the details, even though it is such

a huge election issue. Now the latest weather. I know you

are fascinated by my domestic heating arrangements, I am in limbo

at the moment, what's going on? Keep your heating off just now because

temperatures are rising. These are the current temperatures we have.

Look at that already, in London it is 17. Temperatures set to rise over

the next few days and we will see a fair bit of sunshine. This Weather

Watchers picture is from King frankly. -- Kings Langley. The

forecast for today is a bit of a mixture. Mostly dry with one or two

showers and some sunny spells. This morning we have just that, a real

variety of weather. In the south we've got this cloud and also some

sea fog in the English Channel and the Irish Sea. We've got the cloud

melting away across Northern Ireland and Scotland. A fair bit of sunshine

here as we go through the course of the day. If you are out of the

breeze it will feel quite pleasant. We'll see some brighter breaks in

the cloud and we will see showers from mid Wales down towards South

Kent. Some of that sea fog that is in the Irish Sea may lap onshore in

the far south-west of Scotland. It will not make a lots of inland

penetration. Still some cloud around with the odd shower. Sunny spells

across south-west England. Temperatures are beginning to climb

into the high teens. As we drift through Gloucestershire, if you

showers in the Midlands towards Kent. It will be cloudy at times but

will break and we will see some sunny spells or at worst, some

sunshine. Highs of 23-25. Somewhere like Glasgow could hit 19-20.

Through this evening and overnight will see cloud across Scotland,

northern England, Northern Ireland. It won't be such a chilly start to

the day. Fog in the English Channel moving in sure. Fog patches forming.

Then another weather front coming in from the West. That will drift

slowly south east accompanied by gusty winds. The heaviest rain will

be on the hills. At lower levels it's more likely to be drizzly in

nature but the cloud will build ahead of it. For England and Wales

we are at sunny skies and dry conditions. Temperatures tomorrow

could hit 26 in the south-east but we have fresher conditions coming

into the Northwest. Ahead of it quite a muggy feel and with so much

energy in the atmosphere we could see one or two thunderstorms

developing. Especially in the south-east and East Anglia. Behind

that, back to bright spells, sunshine and showers.

Hello, it's 10:00am, I'm Victoria Derbyshire.

Ian Paterson - the breast surgeon who carried out multiple

unnecessary operations - will be sentenced later today.

He knew how terrified I was of the idea of surgery. He knew how I

absolutely didn't want to have an operation. Then he spent a lot of

time convincing me and terrifying me, so that I agreed, against my

better judgment. A new report finds that half of all online gamers are

believed. -- bullied. Well be talking to a victim

of online gaming abuse in a moment. We'll hear from Caroline

Lucas just after 10:30. What do you think sets you apart

from other middle-class, privately educated MPs in their 50s? LAUGHTER

That's a very good question! We will hear from Caroline Lucas at around

10:15am. Good morning. Now the latest news with Joanna.

A huge car bomb in the Afghan capital Kabul has killed at least 80

The huge explosion happened in the diplomatic quarter

of the city near the French embassy during morning rush hour.

It's unclear who carried out the attack.

In a statement, the Taliban denied involvement.

People tell me they haven't seen anything like this in many years.

As you can see, all the windows and some doors are shattered.

Nobody has yet taken responsibility for the attack.

But in spite of several demands from the international community,

the insurgents and the Taliban have not said "yes" to stop violence

Police say a "dangerous" prisoner, believed to be armed with a razor

blade, is on the run after escaping officers in Wiltshire.

Michael Kisiel, who's 30, had been taken to hospital

in Salisbury with a head injury before overpowering prison

Police are warning the public not to approach him.

Tens of thousands of expat pensioners may return to the UK

to use the NHS after Brexit - unless a deal can be done to let

them keep receiving care abroad, a health charity has warned.

The Nuffield Trust estimates the cost of treating them on home

soil, rather than abroad - could double to ?1 billion pounds.

At the moment, the UK gives around 500 million a year to EU

countries that care for Brits who have retired overseas.

That's a summary of the latest BBC News - more at 10:30.

We will be talking about bullying and a report that suggests more than

half of online gamers are bullied. It's unbelievable.

Good morning. We are still waiting for this to be rubber-stamped by the

board today. We heard yesterday that Arsene Wenger will be staying put as

manager of Arsenal for another two years. He's received a lot of

criticism throughout the season, so what do fans make of the decision?

Let's speak to an Arsenal supporter and vlogger. What was your initial

reaction when you heard yesterday? Not a surprise. I think it's been

the worst kept secret that he was going to sign a new deal. Not a

surprise, just wondering to myself why it's taken so long and has been

so drawn out, for them to announce it now. Not a surprise. We had seen

the banners, we've heard all the criticism. I think even Arsene

Wenger himself had been quite surprised by how much criticism it's

received -- he has received throughout the season. Did he

deserve it? INAUDIBLE The performances this season in the

Premier League and in the Champions League were, to be quite frank, very

poor. In the Premier League we lost nine games, we finished way off

Chelsea, and out of the top four, didn't make the Champions League. In

the Champions League itself, we suffered two humiliating defeats to

Bayern Munich 5-1. The team we were told we were moving to the Emirates

Stadium to become the new Bayern Munich. We realised how far away and

how far off we were. I think, compounded on that, the fact there

was no announcement, nothing was said, every time the club was asked

about what was happening, so I think people who wanted him out so it has

an opportunity to really do a lot of protests and lots of banners, and

trying to put as much pressure on as possible to try and get him to

leave. I think the indecisiveness and performances have all led to the

criticisms and have made it worse. Those fans aren't going anywhere,

there is still a level of anger, they aren't going to change their

minds, are they? Results change minds. Even at the weekend, the

victory over Chelsea in the FA Cup, I wouldn't say it's changed people's

minds. But it makes people feel a bit better about the club. There

were fans who were very pleased with the performance, not just the fact

we beat Chelsea but the manner of how we did it. If the season gets

underway and we are putting in good performances and playing good

football, you know, the fans will warm to that. However, the problem

is is that those fans won't go away. If on the other hand you have three

bad performances and bad losses, the banners and things like that might

come back out again. But, for me, is the big fear for next season. Thank

you. The British and Irish Lions squad have arrived in New Zealand

for their tour which takes in three Test matches. The first matches this

Saturday. How is this for a welcome? The Lions were treated to a

traditional Maori welcome at Auckland airport. The squad

responded by singing a Welsh hymn. Apparently they were practising for

weeks! That's all the sport for now, the latest in the next half an hour.

Thank you for your many, many comments about election on blind

dates. Broadly speaking most of you absolutely love it. "That Was so

good, we have totally different political views and we have been

friends for over 20 years". "Big Up for showing people can calmly and

politely debate with the other side". "Exceptional Blind dates

today, a stroke of genius". "This Is genius, opposing views being shown

respectfully and light-heartedly". "I Quite enjoyed this edition of

election blind dates, that is how to do civil political discussion". "

Brave to do the programme and you fought the blue corner well". "This

Is winding me up, I don't need this so early in the morning! " "It Shows

we have more in common than divides us, please keep this going after the

election!" OK, we'll try! Almost three quarters of young

people say they've been trolled while playing an online game and one

in two say they've either been bullied, sent hate messages

or threats by other online gamers. The figures have been described

as "shocking" by anti bullying charity Ditch The Label,

here's our reporter Chi Chi Izhundu. Young people are being bullied

online and it is in a place where they should be having fun

and engaging in different conversations with people

from all around the world. To explain exactly how

and what it is, let's leave Broadcasting House

for just a minute. Here we are on the edge

of our virtual city. It is places like this that exist

on online video games. In gaming, other users

can access this space, but it is also the place

where bullying and abuse can happen. This abuse is coming from another

gamer, and they can be absolutely Because they are hiding behind

the screen, they can say Luckily, here in my virtual world,

I can get rid of them. But for a lot of people,

that is just not possible. A new report shows the scale

of bullying young people face when it comes to online gaming

and how widespread it is. The charity Ditch The Label spoke

to 2,500 people aged between 12 and 26 and found they were regularly

subjected to hate The report also found the problem

is exacerbated because a lot of the virtual games are based

on high levels of They also found that seven out

of ten young people say online-gaming bullying is an issue

that needs to be taken more seriously, and they want

more human moderators. The charity's aim is to bring

the gaming community together to stop malicious trolling

and bullying online. Let's talk to Daniel Moran,

who's 16 and received homophobic Zane Morris, a gamer who has

received racial abuse. Liam Hackett, CEO of charity Ditch

the Label who published this report. Also Aofie Wilson, a gaming

journalist for Eurogamer. Thank you for coming on the

programme. Tell us about the kind of abuse you've received. I'm 23 now

but this happened when I was 15, 16, that age range. I was playing online

competitively. Great environment to meet new people, have conversations.

But in one particular case I started to receive racial slurs. I had my

social media in my description. They didn't really bother me as such.

Then I started to receive torrents of e-mail saying that my account had

been reported for spam and for abuse and eventually my account got close

down and there was nothing I could do about it. Now, as someone who has

been a game of all my life, this obviously annoyed me but I had other

options, I could go out and play with my band, be with friends, there

were so many other opportunities. I worry for my nieces and nephews now,

the roles have switched, they are now whether you're watching the

cultural differences, gaming has exploded. Nowadays there is a lot

more casual gamers, people who wouldn't normally get involved and

now they are. I just really hope that the internet can stay safe with

them as well because they are the most impressionable, the people that

take the swear words and the racial slurs they hear on their headsets

and go forth and said. As adults we are less at risk but it is a worry.

Leon, as Zane says, it has exploded, so in that sense it is a microcosm

representative society. The more some people get involved, the more

abuse there will be, do we have to accept it? No. We see bullying as a

societal behaviour, it is a behaviour. We know that they usually

are experiencing stressful and traumatic experiences. In this

research we found that one in five had admitted to bullying somebody in

the game, and we had a lot of kids telling us that if they were being

bullying Orton pollute themselves or they were going something -- they

were being bullied themselves. We absolutely should not accept this.

This is a cultural thing. Gamers were telling us that this is normal

behaviour, they would go into games at expect to be treated this way.

Look at uniting this way. The unfortunate thing of this research

is that it is completely unsurprising to be. Yes, a lot of

people will look at this and say it is not bullying, it is just the way

it is. I think it is a cultural issue in gaming. Unfortunately it is

a very vocal minority, the majority of experience in my gaming has been

overwhelmingly positive but there is more we can do to make sure young

people especially aren't being desensitised to this kind of

language. It has very real impacts, kids were telling us it was making

them feel depressed, giving them anxiety, and we never people who are

being bullied off-line are more likely to play games to escape it,

and then if they are being abused on that as well it amplifies the

impact. Can I ask you what you think of this research from Liam's charity

that people who are doing the bullying online are often not always

being bullied themselves, do you buy that? I do. I haven't necessarily

thought about it with such depth as I am now, but me personally, I grew

up with my mum working long hours. For myself, gaming as an escape, not

escaping bullying but it was a way I could entertain myself and to myself

engaged for those hours. I also know I had friends who went through

similar things but they were not being bullied. We have grown out of

it. But without doubt sometimes you don't have anywhere else to put it.

These people don't have anywhere else to go out. There is definitely

a worry online. From my experience, a fairly visible person within the

gaming industry and my pocket of the gaming industry, so I find that the

challenging and engaging these people often you will find that they

don't really think that far ahead. And if they see their words are

having an impact, actually they will think more about it. What abuse have

you experienced doing your job? Explain your job. Iamb eight games

journalist but I am also quite visible on YouTube and I write a lot

of articles about gaming, hopefully celebrating games for the most part.

But people think that gamers look a certain way, I'm very aware I don't

fit that mould. As a woman, sometimes people think that you

don't quite belong there. So you get some misogynistic abuse but I

personally find it quite easy to let that slide. But I am very aware that

I want to make it clear to young women that they don't have to pick

it up with that. My best tools for dealing with trawls is humour for

one, but also disinterest will completely disarmed them as well. So

don't respond? Don't respond, or if they know they are getting the year

that is a win in their book. If I am ever playing over and watch and I

say, "No one cares, broken". That will shut them up. Here is a tweet,

anyone who has played Fifa online has been abused by some uppity

American five-year road. With all due respect, it is not news. That

someone who thinks it happening. This one says I am amused by the

lack of comments from the gaming companies who irresponsibly design

systems to allow online communication to take place during

gaming with zero monitoring. We are getting better at that actually. I

mentioned Over watch, an online game I play a lot, and Blizzard have done

a lot to tackle negative communities and environment springing up. That

is one way to curb IM better venue, the competitiveness that comes out,

but also they added a tool not long back that turned a derogatory

message into something completely different. Which people can find

ways around that but it means they are taking a stance on that

language. It is such an interesting discussion because of course the

games titles are a huge stakeholder in this and they have a jerky of

care to their users but what we are looking at is how users are -- a

duty of care. But if you say children who play 18 rated games, it

is their parents's responsibility on whether there child can handle

certain types of content and bullying. And that most online games

are competitive in nature. When that is the environment, there will be

trash talk. On that topic, there has technically been a huge shift in

gaming culture towards competitive gaming. There was a lot more focus

on cooperative gameplay, which I have a lot of memories playing with

my brother. The whole split screen side of thing is gone, everyone

against each other. Now you have almost a football type mob behaviour

where you have the key stars saying swear words. Tribal behaviour, in a

way. This e-mail from Brian says Victoria, I have a 13-year-old son,

an online gamer, a Facebook user, I have a feeling he is experiencing

some kind of bullying and peer pressure but he puts on a front that

everything is OK. I wish he would talk about it and not get angry or

keep it in. I dislike this new technology generation, it is

changing society. I always say it is so important for parents and

guardians to have fully open and honest relations with their

children. But this online life is very real. It is important to talk

about are just as you would off-line, talk about it around the

dinner table, ask what they are doing online, what they enjoy about

the internet but also we have the largest online support hub for

anyone experiencing bullying. They can speak to one of our mentors

anonymously and get advice and support. That is a resource for

anyone impacted by these issues. There are games getting better at

providing resources. Life is strange, when it dealt with stories

of suicide and bullying, at the end of the game it actually provided

websites the kids to check out. So I think games are aware now of the

reach they have, and also the difficulty is that a lot of their

players have. Though Di Stefano list rent in the message of telling kids

that if they are being bullied it is because the person they are

bullying, their dad could be beating up their mum, then and could have

passed away come you don't know what is going on in that young person's

life. The result is a root cause. I am not sure there is always a root

cause. No we have the data that says it is. OK. Some of it is so casual

though, that they don't even seem to know they are doing it. These nice

middle-class kids with nothing to complain about being vile online. It

is the anonymity that allows people to say anything they like. You get

some taunts meant in jest. I am not saying people who are doing that I

going through something difficult by people who are obsessively

perpetrating these behaviours, to the extent where it is unhealthy,

there is a lazy root cause. Thank you very much for a really

interesting discussion, let's hope it -- there was always a root cause.

Wiltshire Police say they are looking for a dangerous prisoner

believed to be armed with a razor blades. Let's talk to our

correspondent, Andy Moore. The latest information is that the

police perhaps think this was preplanned? We have just had an

updated press release from the police, and they are saying this may

have been preplanned, and he may have had assistance. So the more we

hear about this, the more serious the case becomes. We heard last

night he had escaped from hospital about 7pm last night. At the time,

we were told that he had given his guards the slip. Now we have heard

in fact that he overpowered his guards. Two guards was it? I am not

sure, but he overpowered his guards and made his escape. He was taken to

hospital for a head wound sustained somehow or other in his cell. So

there is now the possibility that the head wound was deliberately

inflicted in some way so he could get the hospital, and then perhaps

with some sort of assistance escape. We are now hearing more about his

background. The police and the Ministry of Justice won't comment at

all on his background. But in fact he was jailed for five years last

year in Luton for a terrible attack on a mother and her daughter. He

actually tied up both victims for eight hours, and he threatened to

kill the mother, holding a large knife to her throat. And we now know

that he has a blade of some sort with him as he is on the loose, and

police say he is dangerous, and there is a very large operation

underway to find him. We have been showing images of him but give us

the description and what the advice to members of the public is if they

think they spot. He is white, five tall with blonde hair, originally

from Poland. Of medium build with very distinctive tattoos on his

neck. He was wearing grey tracksuit items and the black T-shirt with

blue trainers. He didn't have any idea on him or any money, but if he

has assistance of course, that may not be such a big problem. The

advice from the police is not to approach, just call immediately.

Thank you very much. Next to Kabul, let's get the latest on that car

bomb that has exploded in the diplomatic quarter, killing at least

80 people and wounding 300 others. Our correspondence from the BBC

Afghan service, tell us what you know at this stage. The latest is

that we now no that about 80 people have been killed and 350 are

injured. Four of our staff have also had minor injuries, and

unfortunately we lost one of our support staff, who was a driver. Oh

my goodness, I didn't realise that, as well. What do we know about who

might be behind this car bomb? The Afghan president, he has been asking

that in the month of Ramadan there should not be explosions, let's stop

violence but nobody responded to that, insurgent group. This

particular attack will be difficult for the insurgents to take

responsibility because of the level of civilian casualties. This is

normally the case when civilian casualties are high. Insurgent

groups don't take responsibility for it. If it is the security forces

casualties are high, then the response is instant. Apart from

spreading terror, what is it that the insurgents want, ultimately? At

the end of 2017, they announce that this year at least, the Taliban at

least, announced they will be targeting foreign troops and

pressurising the Afghan government. So I guess it is that operation,

that think they are carrying on. They want foreign soldiers out of

the country? That's right, and we see evidence from that at the start

of this year, we have had one incident like this almost every

month. Thank you very much, thank you. It is half past ten, let's

bring you the latest news. A huge car bomb in Kabul has

happened in the diplomatic quarter of the city near the French Embassy

in morning rush-hour. It's unclear who carried out the attack. In a

statement, the Taliban in tick-macro denied involvement. Police say a

prisoner on the run may have had assistance in a preplanned escape.

Michal Kiesel had been taken to hospital before overpowering prison

guards yesterday evening. Police are warning the public not to approach.

Tens of thousands of pensioners in the EU may return to the UK to use

the NHS after Brexit, unless a deal can be done to let keep receiving

care abroad. The Nuffield Trust estimates the cost of treating them

on home soil could double to ?1 billion. At the moment the UK gives

around ?500 million a year to EU countries that care for British

pensioners. A 30-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder

after the bodies of a woman and two children were discovered in a flat

in Liverpool. The discovery was made by officers investigating reports of

a fuel leak in Toxteth. Police say they aren't looking for anyone else.

That's a summary of the latest news, join me for BBC Newsroom

Good morning. We now know he's staying put, a decision that has

divided opinion among Arsenal fans. We are expecting an official

announcement from the club in the next half an hour confirming that

Arsene Wenger will remain at Arsenal for another two years. How's this

for a welcome? The British and Irish Lions have arrived in Auckland,

receiving a traditional Maori welcome. They will play three tests

against the all Blacks, their first four matches on Saturday. He needs

our help, Jack Nicklaus has spoken out about his friend Tiger Woods

after the former world number one was arrested on a charge of driving

under the influence on Monday. It's been a good start for Andy Murray at

the French Open, he faces world number 50 Martin Klizan in the

second round at Roland Garros tomorrow. I'll have all that and

more in the next half an hour. This morning the joint leader

of the Green Party tells this programme she'll cry if the Greens

only return one MP after next In a wide ranging interview

Caroline Lucas also tells us why she believes some drugs should be

legalised and prostitution She joined me in an electric

white van for part of our van share series -

with different politicians from some In this interview -

which was recorded before the manchester terror attacks -

she also says talks should happen with so-called Islamic State,

but she's not naive enough to think IS will send a representative

to any talks. Let's start by talking

about your manifesto. You want to scrap

university tuition fees. And you want to write off

all existing student debt. We think it is wrong that young

people get saddled with this huge amount of debt as they are starting

in their working lives, and also that we think education

should be a public good, Our guarantee about tuition fees

would cost between 8 billion, according to the IFS,

or 11 billion, according to other aspirational estimates

that have been done. We would not be spending money,

for example, on Trident nuclear weapons, HS2,

the Hinckley nuclear-power station. We would say that people

with the broadest shoulders Why do you want to use the taxes

from low-income families to pay the tuition fees of wealthy

students, and ultimately to pay off We would not be addressing

our tax rises to people We have policies like the universal

basic income that would help people on the lowest incomes

and on no income. We say that we want a country

where we can afford good public services for everybody,

and those are the political We the fifth-biggest

economy in the world, and so it is up to us how

we make those choices. You are happy to pay the tuition

fees of wealthier students If they are wealthy, they will pay

more into the tax system ultimately. Yes, because they will pay

more ultimately through You want to give a citizens'

income to everybody. I am not sure you

are calling it that. We need to have a debate

about the future of work. That would be a payment

you would want to pay to everybody, including Premier League

footballers, property For people earning more,

like your football players, But there will be some people

who think that is just bonkers, because that will cost,

if it is 80 quid a week, You would also not be paying

lots of the benefits. It would not be on top

of existing benefits. You scrap existing benefits, 160

billion, it is still 140 billion, It will be a pilot, and combined

with more-progressive taxation. As a result, those people who do not

need it will pay more anyway, It guarantees basic

security to people. People might think this is not

the right answer, and that is fine, but at least the question

is being asked by us, how is it that in the fifth-richest

country in the world we have a situation where 4 million

kids are living in poverty, where people are dependent on food

banks, nurses, because they cannot have enough money to

put food on the table? In that context, it is right

to ask the questions. One challenge is

protecting the planet. You have failed to get people

talking about the environment. Nobody is talking about the green

agenda in this election. I suppose the Green

movement has not done I don't think the fault

is entirely ours. We launched an environment

manifesto ten days ago, and although we had some journalists

there and TV cameras, none of it cut through,

you would not have seen it on your TV screens,

so it is an enormous challenge. It feels as if the whole political

debate now is being so stifled We are not going to be

the next Government, I hope we will have some more Green

MPs who will put pressure on the next Government,

but what we can do is broaden the terms of the debate,

having the debate about how we cope with a future where fewer people

are going to be having the kind of nine-to-five secure jobs

that they might have expected Do you accept that voters do

like to know how things are going to be costed and need

a credible answer? Voters will be pleased

to know that somebody is thinking about the future,

about what the world of work Why do you think the loudest

anti-Brexit parties are plummeting I don't think it is as a result

of saying that we believe the people should have the final say

on the referendum. I do not think we are saying,

"Don't get on with it," but when you come back with a final

deal, does that go to Parliament It was the people that

started off the debate, and given the magnitude

of the decision that we are taking, given the fact that so much

of what we were promised has proved not to be the case, ?350 million

to the NHS, Turkey joining, the fact we are supposed

to the keeping the same economic arrangements now as we had

when we were part of the EU, all of that has

unravelled spectacularly. If people voted no to that final

deal, Britain would stay in the EU? Would you set a limit for the number

of immigrants allowed into Britain? We are standing up for free

movement, we would not The economy sets how

many people come here, and we think it is the most-precious

gift that people can work and retire and study and live and love

and learn in 27 other member states. It is amazing, and I feel so sad

that my kids now will not have the benefits that

I did from that. Should people who support so-called

Islamic State or become a member of Al-Qaeda,

should they be prosecuted? Previously you have

said they should not. Natalie once misspoke

on a BBC politics programme, but the Green Party is clear,

any kind of involvement in any kind of violence like that is utterly

a criminal offence and should be Talking is normally what gets

solutions, as it was in Ireland. It is hard to think

who your interlocutor is. So, yes to talks, but not to be

naive that IS will nominate You are happy for Green candidates

to stand aside in some seats if it is going to split the vote

and therefore potentially allow Is that not skewing

democracy somewhat? Labour, Lib Dems, Greens and no

party are coming together to say, come on, let's try to just be a bit

more savvy about this voting system, which we know is on course to be

handing, if the polls are right, How can we ensure that

different voices are heard, how can we put aside narrow tribal

interests just for once? It is a difficult thing

to ask parties to do, but there was a huge appetite for it

at a local level, including at It was not reciprocated

at a national level, but I still feel it was the right

thing to do. On your website you say

you are not a typical MP. What do you think sets you apart

from other middle-class, I think it is a combination

of being prepared to think the unthinkable as part

of the Green Party, I think it is willing to put your body

where your mouth is, the preparedness to take non-violent

direct action when other That sense of being prepared

to stand up for what you believe in without compromising

is relatively rare. We want an evidence-based drugs

policy, and what we have under this Government and the successive ones

has been an evidence-free policy. There is such an

ideological reaction. Even if it were the case to be

proven that a different policy could keep far more people safe

from drugs, it's not What we are saying is,

let's start with cannabis, let's start by making that

available, if you are over 18 The parents I have spoken

to in Brighton support this issue. It is one I have stood up

for in Brighton very strongly. They will be pleased that once

they are 18 their children can turn around to their parents and say,

"Look, it is regulated now, Many people under 18 are already

getting hold of those drugs, becoming addicted,

and because we have a criminal-justice system that treats

addiction as a criminal offence rather than as a health

problem, there is no way We believe, again,

a decriminalisation, both of the buyer of sex

and of the seller, is a way Would you describe

yourself as a feminist? Are you pleased we have a second

female Prime Minister? Only because I hate her policies,

but of course we need whoever is doing the policies,

I would rather more women Your most-expensive purchase,

not including a car or a home? I think I cried last week, just out

of exhaustion and frustration. If you only return one MP again

this time, yourself... I want Molly to be elected

in Bristol West, I want Vix Lowthion It would be brilliant,

and it would not just be tears because I am sad,

I would be heartbroken that we have not managed to get people

like them into Parliament, How much is the PiP disability

benefit? Hole I can't remember now. Is it ?80 from something like that?

It is about ?65. To be honest, that is a nice way of catching me out,

but the most important thing is to make sure that people with

disabilities are looked after. The most embarrassing thing you have

done when you were drunk? It is not necessarily when I am drunk, but I

figured people's names and faces. Do you sing in the shower,

and if so, what? I assume it is a shower

rather than a bath? We like our occasional

baths as well! My favourite singer

is Regina Spektor, I would try to sing some of her songs,

she is wonderful. I don't know her, can

you sing to me a little bit? I so wish I had my son's Keita with

me, and then she may have had to sing, although I cannot play it.

And more van share with other politicians to come

The Metropolitan Police is going to recruit people directly

as detectives without them spending time in uniform.

We can speak now to Her Majesty's Inspector of Constabulary,

Zoe Billingham, and Leroy Logan who is a former Metropolitan Police

Superintendent and retired after 30 years' service

How bad is the shortage of detectives? Very bad. We put in our

most recent report there is a national crisis in the shortage of

detectives and we have called on forces to take all sorts of

innovative action, like the Met are doing, to make sure that skilled

people are investigating very serious crimes. OK, but you are now

going to have people with skills in other areas but not policing.

Someone who has never arrested someone, someone who has never

sought a crime, going straight in as a detective? What you wouldn't

believe that the moment is that we have people who have no detective

experience at all who are police officers investigating rapes and

even in one incident a homicide. What we want to be happening is a

proper training course for people necessarily coming in from outside

of policing if that is what the Met thinks is important, they get the

appropriate training, they learn how to investigate a crime, they used

their forensic intelligence well and they bring offenders to justice.

That is preferable to forces using a patchwork approach and not having

the right skilled people investigating very, very serious

crimes against people. OK, Leroy Logan, what do you think about this?

There are certain things you can't learn from a book or online. There

are certain skills that you develop through on-site learning. Sorry to

interrupt, Zoe Billingham says there are people investigating crimes as

serious as murder and rape because of the shortage. It is because there

is a shortage, and I think it is really near-sighted that they

haven't understood when you have a high caseload of officers, and the

fact that they are leaving in their droves, and it is so difficult to

get into the tech -- the detective system that it has left a crisis. It

feeds into the narrative that it is just one crisis after another.

People are sensing they are not getting the service they deserve.

OK, why couldn't a graduate with a degree in, I don't know, English

literature take a course to learn some of the skills to become a

detective, and then go on to become a successful detective? I'm not

saying that they can't do it, the only thing is the time between them

being a graduate - I was a graduate when I joined the net but there were

certain skills are developed, interacting with the public, knowing

when someone is lying to you, getting an understanding of how you

map out the process of investigation. That doesn't come

just online or through a website. So I believe there is going to be a bit

of a risk when it comes to this transition to them being effective

detectives. Briefly, Zoe Billingham, what about those skills you pick up

that Leroy Logan has just talked about? These folks are not going to

be thrown in at the deep end, they will be recruited, they will have

the right skills, they will go through intensive training, they

will work alongside other very senior detectives for a period of

time working on perhaps less complex crimes to start with and then

working at the more conflicts crime areas. If they have the right skills

and qualities in order to be to do so. The public must be kept safe, at

the end of the day, and this training needs to be intensive and

conference. They have to be properly supervised, that is key. If they are

not, and not the current situation where you have a higher ratio of

constables, Detective constables and detective sergeants. They won't have

the intrusive supervision to ensure it is not just a rubber stamp, go

on, move on, they actually have the skills that they speak about. Will

they be properly supervised? Absolutely, supervised all the way

through their training and for many years into their qualifications as

well. Does that reassure you, briefly? The jury's out. Thank you

both of you. Tens of thousands of expat

pensioners may return to the UK to use the NHS after Brexit,

unless a deal can be done to let them keep receiving care abroad,

a think tank has warned. The Nuffield Trust estimates

the cost of treating them on home soil, rather than abroad,

could double to ?1 billion. Currently, the UK gives around

?500 million a year to EU countries that care for Brits

who have retired abroad. Jean Moore originally

from the West Midlands is one of the 190,000 pensioners living

in the EU. I spoke to her in Spain a short

time ago about the care I get excellent care here,

and I am frightened. I didn't vote for Brexit,
