Hello, it's Monday, it's 9am,

I'm Victoria Derbyshire.

0:00:060:00:08

Welcome to the programme.

0:00:080:00:16

Theresa May is set to shake up a top

team after she lost three Cabinet

0:00:160:00:20

members at the end of last year. We

are in Downing Street to bring you

0:00:200:00:24

all of the latest on the new faces

in the Cabinet.

The read beasts and

0:00:240:00:30

the Brexiteers look set to be safe.

But stand by for a clutch of

0:00:300:00:35

long-serving middle ranking

ministers to be axed.

Also other

0:00:350:00:39

Golden Globe

0:00:390:00:40

normal was last night, the first

major awards ceremony since

0:00:400:00:46

Hollywood was hit by the sexual

harassment scandals, it was a night

0:00:460:00:49

of powerful speeches and a statement

of solidarity.

I want all of the

0:00:490:00:54

girls watching here and now to know

that the new day is on the horizon!

0:00:540:01:01

We will bring you all of the

highlights. Also we will introduce

0:01:010:01:04

you to a remarkable man.

0:01:040:01:09

Moin won a Pride of Britain Award

for his work as an ambassador

0:01:090:01:12

for his local hospice -

work he does despite having a skin

0:01:120:01:15

condition which causes his skin

to tear and blister at the slightest

0:01:150:01:18

touch.

0:01:180:01:22

It's like false hope, getting that

hope, yes, my mum is going to be

0:01:220:01:27

able to have a rest and I'm going to

get it done quickly, and it never

0:01:270:01:31

happens so I just stopped believing

in it.

0:01:310:01:34

Hello, welcome to the programme.

0:01:390:01:43

We're live until 11am this morning.

0:01:430:01:50

As we are each weekday morning. We

will bring you the latest news and

0:01:500:01:54

sport, also the outcry over the

decision to release the Black Caps

0:01:540:01:58

are real rapist John Worboys after

ten years in jail shows no sign of

0:01:580:02:03

going away. -- the Black cap serial

rapist. We will talk to London's

0:02:030:02:10

victims commissioner and a lawyer

representing some of the many

0:02:100:02:12

victims about what they want to

happen now.

0:02:120:02:15

Do get in touch on all

0:02:150:02:17

the stories we're talking

0:02:170:02:18

about this morning.

0:02:200:02:23

Our top story today...

0:02:230:02:24

Theresa May is expected to make

several changes to her Cabinet team

0:02:240:02:27

in the most extensive reshuffle

since she became Prime Minister.

0:02:270:02:29

They will include a replacement

for her close ally Damian Green,

0:02:290:02:32

who was sacked for breaching

the ministerial code.

0:02:320:02:34

Our Assistant Political Editor,

Norman Smith, is at Downing Street.

0:02:340:02:37

So, what are we expecting?

Well, I

can tell you in the last few minutes

0:02:370:02:42

we are expecting a new chairman of

the Conservative Party to replace

0:02:420:02:48

Patrick McLoughlin. Not a huge

surprise given the election setback

0:02:480:02:52

which he masterminded. I think it

tells us the story of how this

0:02:520:02:55

reshuffle is going to pan out. In

other words, we can expect some of

0:02:550:03:01

the longer serving ministers, and

bearing mind, Patrick McLoughlin has

0:03:010:03:05

been in government since Mrs

Thatcher, so he is a really

0:03:050:03:08

long-serving minister. It is those

sort of ministers who have been

0:03:080:03:11

around the block a few times and

haven't quite got the top jobs, in

0:03:110:03:16

middle ranking positions, those are

the ones we expect Mrs May to heave

0:03:160:03:28

out to create a bit of space to

bring on newer, younger, female MPs

0:03:280:03:31

to present a different face and to

inject a bit of new life and energy

0:03:310:03:33

into the Cabinet. Significantly,

however, we are not expecting the

0:03:330:03:35

big beasts, or the Brexiteers, to be

shunted off. The likes of Boris

0:03:350:03:39

Johnson, Philip Hammond, Amber Rudd,

they stay, as it is expected to

0:03:390:03:44

David Davis and Liam Fox. Why?

Because, to move any of those people

0:03:440:03:48

would involve a major shake-up, and

that creates all sorts of tensions

0:03:480:03:54

and potential conflicts, Mr may

simply isn't in that sort of secure

0:03:540:03:58

position to do that -- Mrs May.

There is a view that they are on the

0:03:580:04:02

tram lines to Brexit and they don't

want any further change to answer

0:04:020:04:05

for their approach in this crucial

period for the Brexit negotiations.

0:04:050:04:11

Are we expecting promoted MPs to

walk up Downing Street behind you

0:04:110:04:14

through the morning, or are those

days gone?

No, we will get those who

0:04:140:04:21

have been promoted or shuffled a

little bit, they will get to walk up

0:04:210:04:24

Downing Street. What we won't get is

the walk of shame, those who have

0:04:240:04:28

been dispatched having to walk up

heads bowed, that won't happen.

0:04:280:04:32

Presumably they will be told over

the blower, thanks very much, but

0:04:320:04:37

it's over. So we won't get the

vanquished coming up Downing Street.

0:04:370:04:42

And I guess, you know, that's

probably maybe our first indication

0:04:420:04:46

of who's been promoted. The other

thing to watch is the Downing Street

0:04:460:04:50

Twitter feed. Because nowadays, that

tends to be how Downing Street

0:04:500:04:57

announced reshuffles. If you want to

be on top of it, that's the Twitter

0:04:570:05:01

feed to follow.

Thanks very much. We

will be back with you to watch the

0:05:010:05:05

promoted candidates walk up Downing

Street.

0:05:050:05:07

Annita McVeigh is in the BBC

Newsroom with a summary

0:05:070:05:09

of the rest of the day's news.

0:05:090:05:11

Good morning.

0:05:110:05:17

Many of Hollywood's biggest stars

have used the first major awards

0:05:170:05:19

ceremony since a wave of sexual

abuse and harassment

0:05:190:05:21

allegations swept the film

and television industry

0:05:210:05:23

to show their support for victims.

0:05:230:05:24

Almost all those attending

the Golden Globe awards

0:05:240:05:26

chose to wear black.

0:05:260:05:27

The actor and television presenter

Oprah Winfrey was given a standing

0:05:270:05:30

ovation for a speech decrying men

who abuse their power.

0:05:300:05:32

Our North America Correspondent,

James Cook, reports.

0:05:320:05:36

In Hollywood, they turned

the red carpet black.

0:05:380:05:40

This was a show of solidarity

for those who had been

0:05:400:05:43

abused and harassed,

and a demonstration

0:05:430:05:45

of the determination to change.

0:05:450:05:52

From the moment the ceremony

began, its tone was set.

0:05:520:05:55

Good evening, ladies

and remaining gentlemen.

0:05:550:05:56

LAUGHTER.

0:05:560:05:58

And here are the all-male nominees.

0:05:580:06:02

Natalie Portman highlighted

the failure of the Golden Globes

0:06:020:06:04

to recognise female directors.

0:06:040:06:08

And star after star lined up

to give voice to a movement

0:06:080:06:11

now known as #TimesUp.

0:06:110:06:13

Time is up.

0:06:130:06:14

We see you, we hear you,

and we will tell your stories.

0:06:140:06:17

Thank you.

0:06:170:06:21

APPLAUSE.

0:06:210:06:22

It was really great to be

in this room tonight,

0:06:220:06:24

and to be part of the tectonic shift

in our industry's power structure.

0:06:240:06:31

But no speech was more powerful

than Oprah Winfrey's.

0:06:310:06:34

So I want all the girls watching

here now to know that

0:06:340:06:37

a new day is on the horizon!

0:06:370:06:45

Time and again here on this red

carpet, we've heard the same word -

0:06:450:06:48

and that word is change.

0:06:480:06:50

The stars who've been walking down

here are insisting that this

0:06:500:06:53

is not just a moment,

this is a process -

0:06:530:06:55

which they say will continue.

0:06:550:06:58

James Cook, BBC News,

at the Golden Globes in Hollywood.

0:06:580:07:01

Three women have accused

the Australian actor Craig Mclachlan

0:07:030:07:07

of indecent assault during a tour

of the musical

0:07:070:07:09

The Rocky Horror Show.

The 52-year-old, best known

0:07:090:07:12

for his roles playing a heart-throb

in the long-running TV soap operas

0:07:120:07:16

Neighbours and Home and Away,

says the allegations

0:07:160:07:20

are "baseless and vicious".

0:07:200:07:23

The women say they raised

complaints with the theatre

0:07:230:07:25

company at the time,

but no action was taken.

0:07:250:07:28

The BBC's China Editor,

Carrie Gracie, has stepped down

0:07:280:07:30

from the role in protest

at what she called an "indefensible

0:07:300:07:34

pay gap between men and women"

at the Corporation.

0:07:340:07:36

In an open letter addressed

to licence-fee payers, Ms Gracie -

0:07:360:07:40

who is remaining at the BBC -

accused it of "breaking

0:07:400:07:43

equality law".

0:07:430:07:44

She says that she doesn't want a pay

rise, but does want to be paid

0:07:440:07:48

the same as other international

editors who are men.

0:07:480:07:50

A BBC spokesman said

fairness in pay was "vital".

0:07:500:07:53

Our Media Editor,

Amol Rajan, reports.

0:07:530:07:56

Carrie Gracie is one of the most

respected international

0:07:580:08:00

correspondents of her generation.

0:08:000:08:03

With over three decades' experience

at the BBC, her latest position

0:08:030:08:07

was a high-profile and uniquely

challenging post, responsible

0:08:070:08:11

for covering over a billion

people in a superpower

0:08:110:08:13

that is repressive

toward journalists.

0:08:130:08:15

Yet she is paid less than two

BBC reporters who do

0:08:150:08:18

similar jobs and are men.

0:08:180:08:20

In an explosive letter

to license fee payers,

0:08:200:08:21

she says the BBC has "a secretive

and illegal pay culture

0:08:210:08:24

and is not living up

to its stated values of trust,

0:08:240:08:26

honesty and accountability."

0:08:260:08:33

A big welcome back to Claudia!

0:08:330:08:36

Last summer, the corporation

was forced to disclose salaries

0:08:360:08:38

of some on-air staff

paid over £150,000.

0:08:380:08:40

It revealed a gender pay gap.

0:08:400:08:45

Not only are men generally

being paid more, but the appearance

0:08:450:08:48

that some women were being paid less

for doing equivalent work.

0:08:480:08:50

The BBC has embarked on not

one but three audits

0:08:500:08:53

of pay across staff.

0:08:530:08:55

It says it has gone much further

than most organisations on equality,

0:08:550:08:58

and is determined to do more.

0:08:580:08:59

But this is a moment of high danger

for the Corporation.

0:08:590:09:02

With over 200 female staff

complaining formally about equal

0:09:020:09:05

pay, there is a danger of legal

action being brought

0:09:050:09:07

and the public broadcaster's

reputation being tarnished.

0:09:070:09:17

Rail commuters are facing disruption

today as staff at five train firms

0:09:180:09:21

begin a fresh wave of strikes

in disputes about

0:09:210:09:23

the role of guards.

0:09:230:09:26

The union involved, the RMT,

has urged Ministers to convene

0:09:260:09:28

a meeting with the train companies

to try to reach a deal.

0:09:280:09:31

The firms say the union is showing

its disregard for passengers.

0:09:310:09:34

An accountancy firm advising

the Grenfell inquiry has quit

0:09:340:09:36

amid concerns over a conflict

of interest.

0:09:360:09:38

KPMG, which audits three

of the firms being investigated,

0:09:380:09:40

also works with the Royal Borough

of Kensington and Chelsea,

0:09:400:09:43

where the tower is located.

0:09:430:09:44

The firm said it had

"mutually agreed" to step

0:09:440:09:46

down from the inquiry.

0:09:460:09:49

A ten-year study has found women

are three times more likely to die

0:09:490:09:53

in the year following a heart attack

than men because they're not

0:09:530:09:55

given the same treatment.

0:09:550:09:57

Analysis of more than 180,000

0:09:570:09:59

patients over a decade

by Leeds University researchers

0:09:590:10:03

found women were less likely

to receive recommended treatments

0:10:030:10:05

including bypass surgery or statins.

0:10:050:10:08

When they did, the gap in mortality

decreased dramatically.

0:10:080:10:14

New measures to tackle the sale

of unsafe laser pens which can cause

0:10:140:10:17

blindness have been announced

by the Government.

0:10:170:10:19

It comes after an increase

in incidents targeting

0:10:190:10:21

pilots and train drivers.

0:10:210:10:23

The new powers would include better

labelling, as Daniela Relph reports.

0:10:230:10:32

And increased checks at Borders to

ensure that the devices do not enter

0:10:320:10:36

the country in the first place.

0:10:360:10:40

There are growing fears of an

environmental disaster in the East

0:10:400:10:44

China Sea after a tanker continues

to leak oil two days after colliding

0:10:440:10:47

with a cargo ship. The Iranian

vassal was carrying oil to South

0:10:470:10:52

Korea, and it is still on fire.

Rescue efforts are being hampered by

0:10:520:10:56

a large oil slick and dense clouds

of smoke. 32 Iranian crew

0:10:560:11:02

members are still missing. Some

pharmacists working for Boots claim

0:11:020:11:06

understaffing could put patients at

risk. Several current pharmacists

0:11:060:11:11

told the BBC's Inside Out programme

that staff are under too much

0:11:110:11:15

pressure and feel that mistakes will

be made. One resigned in 2015 after

0:11:150:11:20

he took his concerns to the

independent industry regulator. The

0:11:200:11:25

chain responded by saying its

pharmacies are not understaffed and

0:11:250:11:28

it has an industry-leading patient

safety record.

0:11:280:11:31

That's a summary of

the latest BBC News.

0:11:310:11:32

More at 9:30am.

0:11:320:11:35

the programme.

You can send us an e-mail, WhatsApp,

Facebook, the usual.

0:11:440:11:47

Let's get some sport with Jessica.

0:11:470:11:48

And no surprises that England

lost again in the Ashes.

0:11:480:11:51

But captain Joe Root had everyone

guessing about whether or not

0:11:510:11:54

he would play on the final day?

0:11:540:11:55

Yes, you are right, Victoria. He was

in hospital in the early hours of

0:11:550:11:58

this morning, suffering from a tummy

bug which meant that he was severely

0:11:580:12:01

dehydrated. He was able to regime

his innings, just about, but have to

0:12:010:12:06

retire after lunch on 58 -- resume

his innings. He did struggle, Joe

0:12:060:12:11

Root, and England were beaten again,

losing the fifth and final test in

0:12:110:12:14

Sydney by an innings and 123 runs.

Joe Root did make a half-century,

0:12:140:12:20

but England's tale wilted in the

scorching heat of the Sydney Cricket

0:12:200:12:26

Ground, all out for 180, losing the

Ashes Series 4-0, and they still

0:12:260:12:30

haven't won a test -- a Test in

Australia.

0:12:300:12:37

A big shock in the FA Cup -

holders Arsenal are out.

0:12:370:12:40

What went wrong for them?

0:12:400:12:42

In short, bad defending. Arsene

Wenger took a gamble and made a lot

0:12:420:12:45

of changes to his team, and it just

didn't pay off. The holders Arsenal

0:12:450:12:50

are out, beaten 4-2 by Nottingham

Forest at the city ground. The

0:12:500:12:54

Forest defender scored the best goal

of the game, making it 2-1 to the

0:12:540:12:58

hosts. The Championship side secured

all three points through keirin

0:12:580:13:02

Doull from the penalty spot, their

second of the game. A valuable win

0:13:020:13:07

for Forest, who only last week that

their manager. It is the first time

0:13:070:13:11

and Arsene Wenger that Arsenal will

not be in the fourth round draw,

0:13:110:13:15

which is live on BBC Two from about

7pm.

0:13:150:13:18

And we will see Video Assistant

Refereeing used for the first time

0:13:180:13:21

in club competitions in England

tonight, how will that work?

0:13:210:13:24

Yes, an interesting one. It is

widely used in other sports like

0:13:240:13:28

rugby and cricket and will now be

used in football in England for the

0:13:280:13:30

first time in a competitive club

match. It will be used for

0:13:300:13:35

potentially matched changing

decisions. Referees will have the

0:13:350:13:38

power to stop the game, consult

video replays with helps of getting

0:13:380:13:42

decisions right. The FA Cup third

round between Brighton and Crystal

0:13:420:13:46

Palace tonight will use the year

technology. Referees boss Mark

0:13:460:13:50

Reilly said the technology will

never be 100% perfect, but if

0:13:500:13:54

through this we make that 4% 2% then

we have benefited the game,

0:13:540:13:59

Victoria.

Thanks, Jess. More

throughout the morning. Good

0:13:590:14:03

morning, thank you for joining us.

0:14:030:14:05

"It must have reawakened the most

appalling memories" -

0:14:050:14:07

the words of the Justice Secretary,

David Liddington, who is expected

0:14:070:14:10

to make a statement to MPs today

over the decision to release

0:14:100:14:13

the black cab rapist John Worboys.

0:14:130:14:16

Mr Liddington is expected to make a

statement to MPs today over the

0:14:160:14:18

move.

0:14:180:14:21

The former taxi driver,

who is suspected of attacking more

0:14:210:14:23

than 100 women in his London cab,

has served ten years

0:14:230:14:31

in jail after being convicted of 19

offences against 12 women.

0:14:310:14:34

Now 60, Worboys is due to be

released from jail later this month.

0:14:340:14:37

A parole board approved his release,

saying they were "confident"

0:14:370:14:39

he won't reoffend.

0:14:390:14:40

But major questions have been raised

after many of his victims say

0:14:400:14:43

they weren't consulted

in the decision, or even told

0:14:430:14:45

that he would be freed.

0:14:450:14:46

Let's talk now to Claire Waxman.

0:14:460:14:51

She's London's first

Victims Commissioner,

0:14:510:14:53

and works to improve

0:14:530:14:54

the experience of victims of crime.

0:14:540:14:56

Kim Harrison is from Slater

and Gordon lawyers in Salford,

0:14:560:14:59

representing 11 of Warboys victims.

0:14:590:15:01

She says many are "absolutely

terrified" by the prospect

0:15:010:15:03

of his release later this month.

0:15:030:15:09

Kim Harrison, the Justice Secretary

is making a statement

0:15:090:15:12

in the Commons today.

0:15:120:15:13

What do your clients

who are victims of Worboys,

0:15:130:15:15

want to hear from him?

0:15:150:15:19

Well, first of all they want an

apology. Because they were not told.

0:15:190:15:23

I've not managed to speak to anybody

yet he was told about his impending

0:15:230:15:28

release who was consulted in anyway

about his impending release. They

0:15:280:15:31

want to ensure that the law is

changed to allow victims of crime to

0:15:310:15:39

have greater input into the parole

board system when considering

0:15:390:15:45

release of high-profile offenders

such as John Worboys, and also

0:15:450:15:50

greater transparency within that

parole board system.

0:15:500:15:57

What have your clients said to you

about his imminent release?

They're

0:15:570:16:04

absolutely shocked, appalled,

terrified. Many found out through

0:16:040:16:07

social media or through media. I've

not yet managed to speak to anybody

0:16:070:16:12

who found out via any official

channel and so they just can't

0:16:120:16:17

believe it. They were told, many of

them, were told by the CPS that

0:16:170:16:23

their cases were not going to be

prosecuted because this man was

0:16:230:16:27

going to be locked up for a very

long period of time and I don't

0:16:270:16:30

think many people would think eight

years is a long period of time for

0:16:300:16:33

the sorts of offences that he was

convicted of and alleged to have

0:16:330:16:37

committed.

Why do you say, why do

the victims say, they have a right

0:16:370:16:43

to know the reasons why the

independent Parole Board have

0:16:430:16:46

decided to release him?

I think

there is great scepticism from my

0:16:460:16:53

clients and also from members of the

public in general as to whether this

0:16:530:16:57

man really is reformed character and

a changed individual. We pursued

0:16:570:17:02

successful civil claims against John

Worboys which concluded in 2013 and

0:17:020:17:06

as late as 2013, he was still

denying his guilt. He was denying

0:17:060:17:11

his guilt within the context of

those civil proceedings even in

0:17:110:17:15

respect of crimes for which he had

been convicted so what has changed

0:17:150:17:24

so drastically? We have concerns

that he is a manipulative man. He

0:17:240:17:29

may have manipulated the Parole

Board and the powers that be into

0:17:290:17:32

convincing that he is safe to be

released and what has changed? Has

0:17:320:17:37

he admitted his guilt or not? If he

has admitted guilt, he has admitted

0:17:370:17:45

a modus operandi, the drugging of

those women and then potentially

0:17:450:17:49

sexual assault and or rape of women

and we know the police believe he

0:17:490:17:53

committed a large number of offences

for which he has never been, any

0:17:530:17:57

prosecutions have been brought. So

the CPS need to urgently look again

0:17:570:18:04

at those files, urgently get the

files out and look at the

0:18:040:18:07

prosecutions and make a decision

urgently as to whether or not they

0:18:070:18:12

are going to bring them forward.

Let

me bring in Clare Waxman, do you

0:18:120:18:17

agree the Justice Secretary when he

stands up in the Commons today, owes

0:18:170:18:22

the victims an apology?

I think he

does. We have got a loophole because

0:18:220:18:27

the victims that were involved in

the original prosecution will have

0:18:270:18:31

been referred to probation, to the

Victim Contact Scheme. So they would

0:18:310:18:34

have been notified that he was

coming up for parole and should have

0:18:340:18:37

been allowed it make representations

and make a victim personal

0:18:370:18:40

statement. So that would have gone

to the Parole Board and waiting for

0:18:400:18:45

London probation to confirm that has

happened. We are looking at because

0:18:450:18:48

there are a number of victims where

prosecution didn't proceed so

0:18:480:18:51

unfortunately, they didn't have the

rights and entitlements to be

0:18:510:18:55

involved in the Parole Board process

and they are the ones missing out.

0:18:550:18:58

So that's a real legal loophole.

Right. He has been released in part,

0:18:580:19:05

because Parole Board officials are

convinced he no longer poses a

0:19:050:19:10

threat to women. They have looked at

all the documentation. They have

0:19:100:19:14

taken oral evidence. They are

independent. They are serious minded

0:19:140:19:20

individuals on this public body. Why

is their decision not good enough?

0:19:200:19:26

It is not that their decision isn't

good enough, there needs to be

0:19:260:19:31

transparency around this decision.

There is a critical point of a

0:19:310:19:35

victim's journey, the release of the

offender and victims have a right to

0:19:350:19:40

understand how the Parole Board has

reached that decision. There needs

0:19:400:19:42

to be more transparency and more

communication to the victim. The

0:19:420:19:45

victim needs to be reassured that

they will be safe upon his release.

0:19:450:19:48

It is a frightening time. So we have

transparency, well we hope to have

0:19:480:19:53

transparency along the process from

the police investigation into

0:19:530:19:55

courts, around the court process and

sentencing, we need to have

0:19:550:19:59

transparency around this part as

well.

That would require a change in

0:19:590:20:01

the law as I understand it. So, that

is not the responsibility of the

0:20:010:20:06

Parole Board. That's down to

politicians?

That's down to

0:20:060:20:08

politicians. That's something that

politicians, campaigners, victims

0:20:080:20:14

voices can persuade to change

because I think there needs to be a

0:20:140:20:18

review with the way the Parole Board

works in the way it involves

0:20:180:20:23

victims.

David Lidington promised

that. But are you calling for a

0:20:230:20:27

Haining of change in the law to

allow transparency around these

0:20:270:20:31

decisions

Yes, absolutely. I think

victims have a right to understand

0:20:310:20:36

how the Parole Board have reached

that decision.

How much confidence

0:20:360:20:38

do you have as a representative of

victims of crime in the Parole

0:20:380:20:42

Board?

Well, when the decisions

aren't transparent it is hard to

0:20:420:20:49

have the confidence. If they explain

their decision that would actually

0:20:490:20:52

help. It is difficult to feel

confident in, especially in this

0:20:520:20:56

particular case. He has satisfied

the Parole Board that he is safe to

0:20:560:21:00

come back into society be in under

stringent conditions, but we are

0:21:000:21:05

talking about someone where,

although we are only looking at 19

0:21:050:21:08

offences, there were alleged many

other offences and there we have to

0:21:080:21:11

look at other failings in other

parts of the system from the

0:21:110:21:15

policing and the CPS and even

sentencing as well.

What message do

0:21:150:21:19

you think it sends that ten years is

all it takes for him to have paid

0:21:190:21:24

his debt to society?

I, again

sentencing has changed since then

0:21:240:21:32

and sentencing is longer and legal

guidance has changed since then.

0:21:320:21:35

Back in this, when this case

happened, if it wasn't in the public

0:21:350:21:40

interest, it wasn't going to change

the length of the sentence, that's

0:21:400:21:43

why those certain victims couldn't

go forward with their case since the

0:21:430:21:48

Jane Cluf change we have changed

legal guidance and the Clufs'

0:21:480:21:54

campaigned for that change, victims

should have the right to proceed

0:21:540:21:57

with their case because securing a

conviction is and having their day

0:21:570:22:01

in court is far better for them than

not to go through it.

A final

0:22:010:22:04

thought from your, from the work

you've done over the years, what do

0:22:040:22:07

you think the after care is like for

women who have been the victims of

0:22:070:22:11

sexual assault and violence?

It is

not just the after care, it is the

0:22:110:22:16

continued care through the process.

The Government keeps making funding

0:22:160:22:19

cuts to policing and probation. That

is going to affect the services that

0:22:190:22:22

victims receive and that's something

that we seriously need to consider.

0:22:220:22:25

It is all very well talking and

apologising, yesterday, Theresa May,

0:22:250:22:30

but it's lip service, we need to go

further and fund a proper justice

0:22:300:22:34

service to fund victims the whole

way through that journey so they can

0:22:340:22:38

hope and recover.

0:22:380:22:45

commissioner and Clare Harrison from

0:22:450:22:49

represent 11 of John Worboys

Worboys' victims. When the Justice

0:22:490:22:55

Secretary stands up in the Commons

this afternoon, you will be able to

0:22:550:22:58

watch what he says on BBC News.

0:22:580:23:03

Last year was, by any

measure, a pretty terrible

0:23:030:23:06

one for Theresa May.

0:23:060:23:07

Before the general election

that she didn't need to call,

0:23:070:23:09

the Conservatives looked

all-powerful.

0:23:090:23:17

She ended up losing her

majority and had to do

0:23:170:23:20

a deal with the Northern

Ireland's Democratic Unionist Party,

0:23:200:23:22

a small party of ten MPs,

just to stay in power.

0:23:220:23:24

And towards the end of the year,

she lost three Cabinet ministers

0:23:240:23:27

in a matter of weeks.

0:23:270:23:28

So, it's with her authority weakened

that the Prime Minister

0:23:280:23:31

is this morning looking

to change her top team.

0:23:310:23:33

There are calls for her to bring

in a new generation

0:23:330:23:36

of Conservative ministers.

0:23:360:23:37

Let's talk about how much

scope Theresa May has

0:23:370:23:39

to freshen up her team,

and whether she can start

0:23:390:23:41

2018 on the front foot.

0:23:440:23:45

And Kevin Schofield is editor

of the website Politics Home.

0:23:450:23:51

Thank you very much for coming on

the programme.

0:23:510:23:57

Changes in who sit around

the Cabinet table are of limited

0:23:570:24:00

interest to those outside

Westminster, so it's your job

0:24:000:24:02

to explain to our audience why

they should care about this

0:24:020:24:05

Cabinet reshuffle.

0:24:050:24:07

Well, first of all, we can see what

position Theresa May is in by the

0:24:070:24:11

decisions that she makes. So we know

she won't change any of the real big

0:24:110:24:18

roles, the Home Secretary, Boris

Johnson, and David Davis and Liam

0:24:180:24:22

Fox and Philip Hammond. She would

like to sack some of those

0:24:220:24:25

ministers.

Who would she like?

Philip Hammond. That was something

0:24:250:24:30

she was briefing before the

disastrous election result for the

0:24:300:24:33

Tories that put her in a position

that meant she couldn't do that. He

0:24:330:24:38

is a little bit more apprehensive

about the path for Brexit that she

0:24:380:24:42

wants to take than some of her

backbenchers who are making things

0:24:420:24:45

difficult for her and Boris Johnson

has caused her no end of suffering

0:24:450:24:49

since he was put in the Foreign

Office and she can't move any of

0:24:490:24:51

those ministers who she finds

difficult. So she is opting to

0:24:510:24:55

choose to get rid of maybe the

Education Secretary, just teen

0:24:550:24:59

Greening who wouldn't be as

politically contentious a move, but

0:24:590:25:02

that could be problematic for her

because just teen Greening supported

0:25:020:25:07

Remainor and to put a Remainor on

the backbenches could be difficult.

0:25:070:25:11

What about the balance between

Remainers and Brexiteers in the

0:25:110:25:18

Cabinet

It is a hung parliament. It

is a finally balanced Parliament and

0:25:180:25:21

it has to be a finely balanced

Cabinet and you're right, so if she

0:25:210:25:25

loses or gets rid of a Remainer,

basically, they have to be replaced

0:25:250:25:30

by a Remainer. It is a real juggling

act that the Prime Minister has got.

0:25:300:25:34

It is not a straightforward case of

well, I don't like his or her face

0:25:340:25:38

anymore, get them out and get

someone else in. There is a number

0:25:380:25:42

of factors at play and the thing

about reshuffles they can easily go

0:25:420:25:45

badly wrong. Even if you're a

powerful Prime Minister, like Tony

0:25:450:25:50

Blair, he had several reshuffles

where they didn't go according to

0:25:500:25:55

plan and it can become chaotic, one

thing we learned under Theresa May,

0:25:550:26:01

the likelihood is that things can go

wrong. There is no guarantee it will

0:26:010:26:04

be plain sailing.

There will be

people thinking who is this

0:26:040:26:08

reshuffle for?

They have been

briefing it will, you know, a bold

0:26:080:26:12

reshuffle. She hasn't done this big

kind of shake-up before, but it's

0:26:120:26:16

not bold if she is not changing the

top positions. Who really is looking

0:26:160:26:19

at the junior ranks of the front

bench? Only people like us as you

0:26:190:26:23

said. The hope is for her and her

party is that if she does bring some

0:26:230:26:28

younger MPs, maybe those of ethnic

minority backgrounds and more women

0:26:280:26:33

into the junior positions, then they

will rise up and the party will

0:26:330:26:36

start to look different in a few

years' time, but Theresa May won't

0:26:360:26:40

be in charge by then.

Most of the

Cabinet went to private school and

0:26:400:26:43

then on to Oxford or Cambridge. How

much of a problem is that for

0:26:430:26:49

someone like Theresa May?

If you

think back to the speech she gave

0:26:490:26:54

when she became Prime Minister, she

talked about the just about

0:26:540:27:00

managing...

Mental health problems,

women, black people.

If you've got a

0:27:000:27:06

Cabinet, that's stuffed full of

people from privileged backgrounds,

0:27:060:27:11

male, middle-aged, white, it just

doesn't look good. The optics are

0:27:110:27:15

bad. I think she has to have a

Cabinet that more reflects more

0:27:150:27:20

accurately the country as it is

rather than maybe how Conservatives

0:27:200:27:23

would like it to be.

And that's why it is ironic that she

0:27:230:27:27

is looking to move just teen

Greening who is the first Education

0:27:270:27:31

Secretary to have been educated at a

comprehensive school and she is also

0:27:310:27:36

the first openly gay woman to serve

in Cabinet.

We are 100% certain that

0:27:360:27:44

Patrick McLoughlin, a former miner

actually which makes him unusual, he

0:27:440:27:48

is going to get the sack. So she has

to replace him with someone from a

0:27:480:27:54

working class background. The old

traditional Thatcherite working

0:27:540:28:00

class, blue collar Conservatism.

She

made them able to buy their own

0:28:000:28:06

council house.

The Tory Party has

got a real image problem. There is

0:28:060:28:13

figuring out, they have only got

70,000 members. They are

0:28:130:28:16

haemorrhaging support, but maybe not

support, but in terms of the

0:28:160:28:20

membership is ageing, they haven't

got the foot soldiers. So she needs

0:28:200:28:25

to send out a message to the country

we are on your side, but not only

0:28:250:28:29

that, we look like you do, we have

the same aspirations and the Tories

0:28:290:28:34

are on the back foot and the

reshuffle is about trying to get

0:28:340:28:36

them on the front foot.

Voters care

more about seeing the NHS crumble in

0:28:360:28:41

parts of the country, despite the

extra money the Government has put

0:28:410:28:45

in or their rail fares have gone up

or they can't afford to buy a house.

0:28:450:28:50

How much closer, if at all, is

Theresa May in delivering the things

0:28:500:28:55

that she has promised when it comes

to housing for example?

Well, I

0:28:550:28:59

think that will be particularly

difficult for her in terms of the

0:28:590:29:02

reshuffle to show she cares about

housing, about the NHS and about

0:29:020:29:05

education. If you look at the people

who are tipped for promotion, Jeremy

0:29:050:29:10

Hunt, the Health Secretary, how can

she reward people who have overseen

0:29:100:29:14

the public service crisises? And

Chris Grayling, the Transport

0:29:140:29:18

Secretary, is another example of

someone who she wants to promote. He

0:29:180:29:22

ran her campaign when she was

running for the leadership of the

0:29:220:29:24

Tory Party. How can she promote

someone who has overseen the crisis

0:29:240:29:28

in rail and we saw the fares going

up at the beginning of the year?

0:29:280:29:31

People will be thinking how do these

people get promoted and I don't have

0:29:310:29:36

much money?

Is it real all about

Brexit?

I think it is. I go back to

0:29:360:29:43

what I say about having a finely

balanced Cabinet between Brexit and

0:29:430:29:49

Remainers. The elephant in the room

for the next 12 months is Brexit.

0:29:490:29:54

Annita McVeigh is in the BBC

Newsroom with a summary

0:30:190:30:21

of the rest of the day's news.

0:30:210:30:23

Good morning.

0:30:230:30:26

Theresa May is expected to make

several changes to her Cabinet in

0:30:260:30:30

the most extensive reshuffle since

she became Prime Minister. These

0:30:300:30:33

will include naming a replacement

for Damian Green, who was in effect

0:30:330:30:40

Deputy Prime Minister before he was

dismissed for breaching ministerial

0:30:400:30:43

code. Changes to the more major

roles will be appointed first, and

0:30:430:30:50

that junior roles will be announced

tomorrow.

0:30:500:30:53

Many of Hollywood's biggest stars

have used the first major awards

0:30:530:30:56

ceremony since a wave of sexual

abuse and harassment

0:30:560:30:58

allegations swept the film

and television industry

0:30:580:31:00

to show their support for victims.

0:31:000:31:01

Almost all those attending

the Golden Globe awards

0:31:010:31:03

chose to wear black.

0:31:030:31:04

It was a politically charged

evening. Several celebrities brought

0:31:040:31:07

activists on racial equality and

gender equality as their guests.

0:31:070:31:13

The actor and television presenter

Oprah Winfrey was given a standing

0:31:130:31:15

ovation for a speech decrying men

who abuse their power.

0:31:150:31:18

Three women have accused

the Australian actor Craig McLachlan

0:31:180:31:20

of indecent assault during a tour

of the musical

0:31:200:31:22

The Rocky Horror Show.

0:31:220:31:23

The 52-year-old, best known

for his roles playing

0:31:230:31:25

a heart-throb in the long-running TV

soap operas Neighbours and Home

0:31:250:31:28

and Away, says the allegations

are "baseless and vicious".

0:31:280:31:30

The women say they raised

complaints with the theatre

0:31:300:31:32

company at the time,

but no action was taken.

0:31:320:31:36

The BBC's China Editor,

Carrie Gracie, has stepped down

0:31:360:31:39

from the role in protest

at what she called an "indefensible

0:31:390:31:41

pay gap between men and women"

at the Corporation.

0:31:410:31:44

In an open letter addressed

to licence-fee payers, Ms Gracie -

0:31:440:31:48

who is remaining at the BBC -

accused it of "breaking

0:31:480:31:50

equality law".

0:31:500:31:55

Because of the discrepancy between

her pay and that of her fellow

0:31:550:31:59

international editors, who are men.

0:31:590:32:00

A BBC spokesman said

fairness in pay was "vital".

0:32:000:32:04

An accountancy firm advising

the Grenfell inquiry has quit

0:32:040:32:06

amid concerns over a conflict

of interest.

0:32:060:32:07

KPMG, which audits three

of the firms being investigated,

0:32:070:32:10

also works with the Royal Borough

of Kensington and Chelsea,

0:32:100:32:12

where the tower is located.

0:32:120:32:13

The firm said it had

"mutually agreed" to step

0:32:130:32:15

down from the inquiry.

0:32:150:32:23

There are growing fears

of an environmental disaster

0:32:230:32:29

in the East China Sea after a huge

tanker continues

0:32:290:32:31

to leak oil two days

0:32:310:32:33

after colliding with a cargo ship.

0:32:330:32:41

The Iranian vassal was carrying

about one million barrells

0:32:410:32:43

of oil to South Korea,

0:32:430:32:44

and it is still on fire.

0:32:440:32:46

Rescue efforts are being hampered

by a large oil slick

0:32:460:32:48

and dense clouds of smoke.

0:32:480:32:49

32 Iranian crew

0:32:490:32:50

members are still missing.

0:32:500:32:51

0:33:120:33:16

A much changed Arsenal team, who

will not be the fourth round for the

0:33:160:33:19

first time in over 20 years, lost

4-2 at the city ground. Video

Britain's Kyle Edmund pulls out of

the Auckland open because of an

0:33:380:33:41

ankle strain. He heard his right

ankle in his previous match. He will

0:33:410:33:46

have the injury assessed ahead of

the Australian open, which starts

0:33:460:33:48

next week. I will have a full

A former football coach,

Barry Bennell, begins trial

0:34:010:34:03

at Liverpool Crown Court today

where he faces 55 charges

0:34:030:34:05

of historic sexual abuse

involving 12 boys.

0:34:050:34:07

Our Sports Correspondent,

Andy Swiss, is outside the court.

0:34:070:34:11

Tell us in more detail what he is

accused of?

Well, Victoria, the

0:34:110:34:16

first thing to say is that Barry

Bennell is standing trial here under

0:34:160:34:20

a different name. Since his coaching

days he has changed his name to

0:34:200:34:25

Richard Jones, that is how he will

be referred to during this trial.

0:34:250:34:29

Barry Bennell is 63 years old, a

former football coach, a former

0:34:290:34:33

youth coach with Crewe Alexandra. He

worked with a number of other clubs

0:34:330:34:37

across the north-west of England,

including Stoke city and went as the

0:34:370:34:41

city. He's been charged with a total

of 50 for sexual offences, 41 counts

0:34:410:34:47

of indecent assault, 11 counts of

Syria sexual assault, two counts of

0:34:470:35:02

attempted the charges relate to 12

different complainants -- serious

0:35:020:35:04

sexual assault. They were between

the ages of eight and 15 at the time

0:35:040:35:07

of the alleged offences, which it is

claimed took place between 1979 and

0:35:070:35:10

1991. Barry Bennell has pleaded not

guilty to all of the charges at

0:35:100:35:13

previous hearings where he appeared

via a video link. In this case, this

0:35:130:35:19

trial is expected to last for up to

eight weeks.

Thank you. Andy Swiss

Crown Court.

0:35:240:35:31

Next, Moin Younis is an 18-year-old

from Birmingham who won the Daily

0:35:310:35:35

Mirror Pride of Britain Award last

November for working with his local

0:35:350:35:39

hospice as an ambassador to support

children with life limiting

0:35:390:35:42

conditions. He does this

inspirational work despite having a

0:35:420:35:46

rare skin disorder. It causes his

skin to care and blister at the

0:35:460:35:49

slightest touch. The NHS estimates

that 5000 people have it in the UK.

0:35:490:35:58

Moin's form of the condition

is so severe that doctors

0:35:580:36:01

said he wouldn't make it

past his first birthday.

0:36:010:36:03

Every morning he goes

through an excruciating skin care

0:36:030:36:05

routine that can last up

to six hours.

0:36:050:36:07

To give us a rare insight

into Moin's treatment,

0:36:070:36:09

our reporter Ashley John-Baptiste

went to meet him.

0:36:090:36:11

His film report contains sensitive

images that might be upsetting.

0:36:110:36:14

When they told us the results,

we were gobsmacked.

0:36:150:36:19

We never knew what was it,

we had Moin in our hand,

0:36:190:36:22

we just started crying

when they told us that he's

0:36:220:36:24

not going to make it

to his first birthday.

0:36:240:36:27

He's made it to 18.

0:36:270:36:28

Like 14, 15, 16, I took

it out of my head.

0:36:280:36:30

I said, "You know what?

0:36:300:36:32

I'm not even going to

think about it now."

0:36:320:36:34

It's like, when I was younger,

my mum and dad always told me,

0:36:360:36:39

"You'll get better one day,"

and I always believed it.

0:36:390:36:43

Then I hit 15 and I said, "I'm old

enough to understand things now."

0:36:430:36:47

Here he is.

0:37:020:37:03

Hello, Moin, how are you doing?

0:37:030:37:05

I'm OK, thanks.

0:37:050:37:08

I like you when you do that fake...

0:37:080:37:10

What face do I do?

0:37:100:37:11

That serious one where you pretend

you're interested in something

0:37:110:37:13

but really you just want to get

out of three!

0:37:130:37:16

Moin Younis, an 18-year-old

lad who lives with his

0:37:190:37:21

parents in Birmingham.

0:37:210:37:23

He's also a massive Aston Villa fan.

0:37:230:37:26

You've got the TV voice.

0:37:260:37:27

I've got the TV voice?!

0:37:270:37:28

I need to get the TV voice myself.

0:37:280:37:31

You've got a great TV voice.

0:37:310:37:38

He has a rare skin disorder known

as epidermolysis bullosa, that

0:37:380:37:41

causes his skin to tear and blister

at the slightest touch.

0:37:410:37:43

The NHS estimates that 5000

people have it in the UK.

0:37:430:37:46

Want to see something cool?

0:37:460:37:47

Yeah, go on.

0:37:470:37:49

It's a Jacuzzi bath.

0:37:490:37:50

Wow!

0:37:500:37:52

At just two months old,

Moin was diagnosed with the most

0:37:520:37:55

severe of the three forms of EB.

0:37:550:37:58

Doctors said he wouldn't make it

past his first birthday.

0:37:580:38:02

You're in the bath so that you can

take the old bandages off?

0:38:020:38:05

Yeah.

0:38:050:38:06

And how long are

you in the bath for?

0:38:060:38:09

About an hour and a half.

0:38:090:38:11

Every day?

0:38:110:38:12

Yeah, every day.

0:38:120:38:14

Are you comfortable right now?

0:38:140:38:15

No.

0:38:150:38:17

I'm all right when I'm talking.

0:38:170:38:21

Every morning, Moin's mum Shafia

helps him to remove bandages before

0:38:210:38:24

applying a fresh set.

0:38:240:38:27

I'm just getting all the packs

ready for arms, legs.

0:38:270:38:30

These are the body parts

that need dressing?

0:38:300:38:32

That's all the body parts.

0:38:320:38:33

A-Z, actually.

0:38:330:38:34

There's currently no cure

for Moin's condition.

0:38:340:38:36

His treatment only aims to relieve

pain and prevent infection.

0:38:360:38:40

How long is the whole process?

0:38:400:38:42

Six hours every day.

0:38:420:38:43

Six hours every day,

seven days a week.

0:38:430:38:46

I've been doing it for 18 years.

0:38:460:38:47

I get tired.

0:38:470:38:51

See the way Ashley went,

"Six hours every day, wow!"

0:38:510:38:53

He already knew that, guys.

0:38:530:38:55

He was just pretending.

0:38:550:38:57

Oh, did he know that?

0:38:570:38:59

Last November, Moin won a Pride

of Britain award for his work

0:38:590:39:03

with a local charity,

where he advised them on how to

0:39:030:39:06

improve their services for children

with life-limiting conditions.

0:39:060:39:11

Coming off the stage,

and that evening was just such a...

0:39:190:39:22

Meeting all these people,

it was such a great evening.

0:39:220:39:24

The next day I got up and realised,

it's not going to take this away.

0:39:240:39:28

Like, I'll still have to do this

everyday, no matter what.

0:39:280:39:31

I do get fed up, the truth is,

no lie, I do get tired and fed up.

0:39:330:39:37

We do have a lot of arguments,

me and Moin, that's just...

0:39:370:39:39

I'm just, you know, I'm just tired.

0:39:390:39:41

How do you feel, the fact

that he's lived so long?

0:39:410:39:44

We're so happy, hey, Moin?

0:39:440:39:46

Well, Moin goes he's not happy,

but we parents, we're

0:39:460:39:48

happy he's lived to 18.

0:39:480:39:49

Did you ever think back then

that he would live...

0:39:490:39:52

No, we never...

0:39:520:39:53

..this long?

0:39:530:39:54

We actually thought he wasn't going

to make it to his first birthday.

0:39:540:39:57

We'd been told that.

0:39:570:39:58

The doctors told us that he's

not going to make it

0:39:580:40:01

to his first birthday.

0:40:010:40:02

Do you have any hopeful

expectations for your son?

0:40:020:40:04

Yeah, I think he'll

grow up like a man.

0:40:040:40:07

You think he'll grow up as a man?

0:40:070:40:10

Yeah, might get married, Moin.

0:40:100:40:13

Might get married, yeah!

0:40:130:40:18

You never know.

0:40:180:40:20

I see a lot of EB patients

who've got families,

0:40:200:40:22

they're married and got families.

0:40:220:40:23

You can't say that.

0:40:230:40:24

Who would want to marry

someone like this?

0:40:240:40:26

Oh, don't say that, pal.

0:40:260:40:27

No, how do you know, Moin?

0:40:270:40:29

It's the truth.

0:40:290:40:30

You're his mum, you're

seeing your son suffer so much.

0:40:300:40:32

What is it like for you having

to do that every morning?

0:40:320:40:37

I don't know how I do it.

0:40:370:40:40

The truth is, I don't know

how my body does it.

0:40:400:40:43

I want to give up, you know,

then I'm thinking, when I go to bed

0:40:430:40:46

I think, "Forget it,

I'm not going to do it, that's it."

0:40:460:40:49

But then I just get up and do it,

because he's my child.

0:40:490:40:52

How does this feel right now, Moin?

0:40:520:40:54

It hurts, a lot.

0:40:540:40:55

Moin didn't want us to film his back

during his skin care,

0:40:550:40:58

but he did allow me to have a look.

0:40:580:41:00

There was no skin, just raw,

decaying flesh, blisters and wounds.

0:41:000:41:03

As he grows, his condition gets

worse as his skin stretches.

0:41:030:41:10

Now put them out.

0:41:100:41:13

HE CRIES IN PAIN.

0:41:160:41:20

When he was a baby,

it was easy to do.

0:41:290:41:31

It was only about one

and a half hours.

0:41:310:41:33

As he's growing more,

more blisters, more wounds.

0:41:330:41:37

HE WINCES.

0:41:370:41:40

By the time Moin's treatment

is finished, it's around

0:41:470:41:50

3pm in the afternoon.

0:41:500:41:54

Shall we do another spud?

0:41:550:41:56

It's terrible, you're terrible.

0:41:560:41:58

You're so bad at Fifa...

0:41:580:41:59

Mate, you love it,

what are you talking about?!

0:41:590:42:01

You're so bad at Fifa, it's unreal.

0:42:010:42:03

I'm so bad at Fifa!

0:42:030:42:04

We're not putting that in the film.

0:42:040:42:07

Just tell me how the skincare's

been for you today?

0:42:090:42:14

So much pain, I can't move anything.

0:42:140:42:19

Are there points in the day where

the pain's a bit more bearable?

0:42:190:42:29

Yeah, that will usually

be around 5pm or 6pm,

0:42:310:42:33

and then if it's bearable

and if it's to the point

0:42:330:42:35

where I can move and drive

and go out, then I will.

0:42:350:42:38

Moin's health care is commissioned

by his local NHS Trust,

0:42:380:42:41

Sandwell and West Birmingham,

under their continuing

0:42:410:42:43

health care package.

0:42:430:42:48

Although they say that Moin

is entitled to carers on a daily

0:42:480:42:52

basis to help with his skincare,

Shafia says she only get

0:42:520:42:54

a carer sporadically,

and often has to carry out

0:42:540:42:56

the treatment by herself.

0:42:560:42:59

I don't feel like I'm his mother,

I feel like I'm his carer.

0:42:590:43:02

That's why I told the social worker,

I go, "I want to be his

0:43:020:43:06

mother, not a carer."

0:43:060:43:08

It's like false hope,

getting that hope, "Yes,

0:43:080:43:12

we're going to have two carers,

my mum's going to be able

0:43:120:43:15

to have a rest and I'm going to be

done quicker," and then it never

0:43:150:43:18

happens, so I've just

stopped believing in it.

0:43:180:43:21

Mostly I worried that if I go ill,

who's going to look after him?

0:43:210:43:25

I worry about that a lot.

0:43:250:43:26

If I have a breakdown,

if my back goes, who's

0:43:260:43:29

going to look after him?

0:43:290:43:30

And I know nobody's

going to look after him.

0:43:300:43:32

Because nobody doesn't,

actually, the truth is.

0:43:320:43:35

It's only me who looks

after him, and his dad.

0:43:350:43:38

His dad's got to work.

0:43:380:43:39

You've got to survive as well.

0:43:390:43:46

See, I say it's hard to get up

in the morning, and I say it's

0:43:460:43:50

hard to do my skincare,

but in my mum's perspective,

0:43:500:43:52

she has to get up, too.

0:43:520:43:54

People say I'm her son

and she has to do it,

0:43:540:43:56

but, no, she doesn't.

0:43:560:43:57

You know?

0:43:570:43:58

My mum used to be

a fit, healthy woman.

0:43:580:44:00

She used to work, she

used to love her job,

0:44:000:44:03

she was going to become a nurse,

she did everything.

0:44:030:44:05

Then I was born, so I haven't just

ruined my life, I've ruined hers.

0:44:050:44:09

You haven't ruined her life.

0:44:090:44:14

When a lot of people saw

you at Pride of Britain, you just

0:44:140:44:17

seemed to have a bit more optimism?

0:44:170:44:20

People say to me, "Oh,

but you met David Beckham,

0:44:200:44:22

I'd want to be you if I met David

Beckham."

0:44:220:44:27

And they really don't

understand what it is.

0:44:270:44:30

Then people say to me, "No,

you have a job on this world,

0:44:300:44:33

to inspire everyone."

0:44:330:44:38

I will do that as much as I can,

but the thing is, it's hard

0:44:380:44:41

to inspire everyone else

when I don't feel I've got that,

0:44:410:44:47

I don't feel I've got

anyone to inspire me.

0:44:470:44:51

Like, I see so many people out

there take life for granted,

0:44:510:44:54

and I just think to myself,

"I would be you any day, mate.

0:44:540:44:59

If you want to swap

lives, let's do it."

0:44:590:45:03

I just want people to live life.

0:45:030:45:08

Whilst there is still no cure

for epidermolysis bullosa,

0:45:130:45:16

a young boy in Germany who had

a severe form of the condition

0:45:160:45:19

was recently given new skin

through a pioneering genetic

0:45:190:45:22

skin modification treatment.

0:45:220:45:25

It's still undergoing

formal clinical trials,

0:45:250:45:27

but Moin anticipates it's something

he could benefit from in the future.

0:45:270:45:35

It's looking well, we've been

to the hospital and the professor

0:45:350:45:38

who did this treatment,

he's interested, and

0:45:380:45:39

he does know about me.

0:45:390:45:44

And are you hopeful

that that treatment...?

0:45:440:45:45

No, it's too good to be true,

the way they're talking

0:45:450:45:48

about it and stuff, it's...

0:45:480:45:49

But, for now, it's just hope.

0:45:490:45:59

Here to give us a more clinical

insight into the condition

0:46:020:46:05

and the potential of future

treatment we have

0:46:050:46:07

Dr Adrian Heagerty.

0:46:070:46:08

He is a Consultant Dermatologist

and leads the adult

0:46:080:46:18

Epidermolysis Bullosa service

in the Midlands

0:46:200:46:22

and North of England.

0:46:220:46:23

Moin Younis is also

a patient of his.

0:46:230:46:25

Can you explain it?

We will

abbreviate to EB because it is less

0:46:250:46:30

of a mouthful. The sort that Moin he

has an abnormality of the glue this

0:46:300:46:38

the skin so the skin doesn't stick

properly and he has inherited that

0:46:380:46:42

from his parents and so at the

slightest touch the, the skin will

0:46:420:46:45

lift off. He will heal afterwards,

but he does blister with his skin

0:46:450:46:51

just by just trauma of minor, minor

degree.

What do you think about the

0:46:510:46:58

way he in particular goes about his

life with such a debilitating

0:46:580:47:02

condition?

Increasingly he is

actually coping interestingly. We

0:47:020:47:08

notice that with all our EB patients

there is a tremendous amount of

0:47:080:47:13

baggage, having survived through

childhood with such pain and all

0:47:130:47:17

this huge amount of care required to

look after the skin, people become

0:47:170:47:25

introverted and can't cope. So we

found that employing a psychologist

0:47:250:47:29

has helped to get him through that

and improve his outlook on life and

0:47:290:47:37

give him meaning and I think we

suddenly start to see that with Moin

0:47:370:47:42

which is really exciting, but we

haven't got his skin sorted and it

0:47:420:47:49

is a battle.

What his future

long-term?

Well, he will tell me his

0:47:490:48:00

life is a lethal condition. The

investigations and actually, what

0:48:000:48:05

has actually happened with him has

shown that he has a better

0:48:050:48:08

prognosis. We can't say for sure,

but we would like to think that we

0:48:080:48:12

can extend this to the sort of level

that we see in other patients with

0:48:120:48:16

this condition and we have patients

with a similar sort of condition who

0:48:160:48:21

are in their 30s now, but we have to

get on top of all the problems and

0:48:210:48:25

side-effects associated with this

condition. So it's pretty rough for

0:48:250:48:29

them.

What is the future when it

comes to potentially new and more

0:48:290:48:36

effective treatments?

Well, there is

a lot of work going on around the

0:48:360:48:41

world from bone marrow

transplantation which has been

0:48:410:48:45

pioneered in America to mikical la's

study which he has been working on

0:48:450:48:53

for ten or 12 years and that's hit

the news recently with a case with a

0:48:530:48:59

child very similar to Moin, but he

was much, much younger and he was

0:48:590:49:05

very much an extremist and the idea

of correcting the gene has always

0:49:050:49:09

been at the back of our minds. We

try, whenever possible, if we know

0:49:090:49:14

of families that at risk of having

an infected baby to help in dig know

0:49:140:49:23

suss and pre-implantation diagnosis

so we can take the egg and sperm and

0:49:230:49:26

take a few cells of the fertilised

egg and show whether or not the

0:49:260:49:31

child is going to be affected or we

can demonstrate in the womb as well.

0:49:310:49:35

So you can give families choices.

You nen terms of a choice of

0:49:350:49:40

terminating?

You have to say that,

yes, but we don't apply our

0:49:400:49:45

judgment. It's the patient and the

family's decision, but we can give

0:49:450:49:53

choices and that helps to a certain

extent. One of the big problems we

0:49:530:49:56

see is a lot of this condition is

associated with marrying first

0:49:560:50:03

cousins and that means if there is a

gene in the family it will come

0:50:030:50:06

together with a member of the family

so the two genes produce a severe

0:50:060:50:12

disease such as Moin here. The

mikical la thing is exciting. It is

0:50:120:50:17

not a cure, but it is a way of

treating his skin and we can take,

0:50:170:50:21

we have...

Treating it in what way?

What we are planning on doing, we've

0:50:210:50:27

submitted his name to a forthcoming

trial based in Salzburg and I have

0:50:270:50:32

been in touch with the clinician

over there and I have written to

0:50:320:50:35

mikical la as well to see if we can

include him. What they do is take a

0:50:350:50:38

piece of his skin and they can put

in the corrected gene into the skin

0:50:380:50:43

and grow it up into huge, huge

sheets and then take the skin that's

0:50:430:50:51

paling off, off and creating a clean

bed and sticking it on, it seems to

0:50:510:50:55

take and grow and the case that was

reported is two years down the line

0:50:550:50:58

now and the child has intact skin

and is able to play football and is

0:50:580:51:02

up and about. So it's really quite

exciting.

That's incredible?

Yes, it

0:51:020:51:06

really is. We dismissed a little bit

of this technology, but he has stuck

0:51:060:51:10

with it and he has shown that it

works and it is enduring which is

0:51:100:51:15

very, very important. So we're very

excited for this approach so we,

0:51:150:51:20

there are four centres of EB in the

country and we have all got our key

0:51:200:51:25

patients, Moin is mine and we were

discussing this last week and I'm

0:51:250:51:29

going send him and see if we can get

him included in the trial. So we are

0:51:290:51:34

exciting opportunity, but that has

to be taken in the context of having

0:51:340:51:39

a very widespread multidisciplinary

approach to his care so pain

0:51:390:51:45

control, orthopaedic care, foot

care, nutrition, so he is doing

0:51:450:51:52

extremely well and he has a mosstive

approach now and people have a

0:51:520:51:57

positive approach, always do well,

we keep pushing for that.

Let me

0:51:570:52:02

read messages from people who

watched our film. Lisa Williams

0:52:020:52:06

says, "My son has a life limiting

condition also. I identify with

0:52:060:52:12

Moin's mum particularly her worries

about her health and available care.

0:52:120:52:15

I'm sending love to the family."

Susan Phillips says "What a brave

0:52:150:52:21

boy. : " Mike says, "Remarkable

young man and mum. Your report had

0:52:210:52:31

me in tears." Simon Harris says,

"What an inspiration he is, thank

0:52:310:52:35

you. If only I had half of his

drive." And another viewer says,

0:52:350:52:40

"This piece on this young boy with

this rare illness is the most

0:52:400:52:44

difficult watch I've ever had. What

a brave young man." Now, Moin is

0:52:440:52:49

apparently, we're told, entitled to

a daily carer. It's not happening. I

0:52:490:52:54

wonder, I know this is not your

area, but how do you think his needs

0:52:540:52:58

have ended up slipping through the

net?

He does get a daily carer, but

0:52:580:53:02

the problem is really that his care

is very difficult and Moin has had a

0:53:020:53:07

lot of pain. So it's getting the

sensitive interaction between Moin

0:53:070:53:12

and the carers. His mother, who is

very good at doing the dressings has

0:53:120:53:18

stepped into the breach, but there

have been issues, but I hope they're

0:53:180:53:21

going to be sorted fairly soon, but

he has funding and he does have

0:53:210:53:26

daily carers to come in.

Thank you

very much for telling us more about

0:53:260:53:30

this. Thank you. I really appreciate

it.

Thank you.

0:53:300:53:37

Theresa May is expected to replace a

man called Patrick McLaughlin with a

0:53:370:53:43

new Conservative Party chairman when

she reshuffles her top team later.

0:53:430:53:46

We will bring you the latest from

Norman Smith who is at Downing

0:53:460:53:49

Street.

0:53:490:53:55

A campaign by Hollywood stars

against sexual harassment

0:53:550:53:57

and assault has dominated the annual

Golden Globes film

0:53:570:53:59

and television awards.

0:53:590:54:02

It was the first big TV award

ceremony since allegations against

0:54:020:54:09

Harvey Weinstein.

0:54:090:54:14

Our correspondent Chi Chi

Izundu joins us now.

0:54:140:54:22

Many people wore black, why?

The

cast, crew, writers, directors, that

0:54:220:54:27

black was symbolic. Symbolic is a

way to show that actually they were

0:54:270:54:31

no longer going to tolerate sexual

harassment within the workplace and

0:54:310:54:35

they want to make this statement,

particularly not just about the

0:54:350:54:39

entertainment industry, we have done

it many times on this programme.

0:54:390:54:43

Sexual harassment is rife throughout

life. So, a number of leading

0:54:430:54:47

actresses and actors as we can see,

wore black to make their point, but

0:54:470:54:53

I guess, the most touching, moving

part of the Golden Globe Awards was

0:54:530:54:59

the speech by Oprah Winfrey. Oprah

Winfrey has documented her sexual

0:54:590:55:03

harassment throughout her career and

at the early stage of her life in

0:55:030:55:08

particular and she used her award,

she won an award. She used that

0:55:080:55:13

platform to make an incredibly power

speech that brought a lot of tears

0:55:130:55:17

to a lot of people and we can take a

look now.

0:55:170:55:22

So I want all the girls watching

here and now to know that a new day

0:55:220:55:27

is on the horizon.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:55:270:55:36

So there was a Lifetime Achievement

Award. We are only allowed to show

0:55:360:55:40

short clips, but the transcript is

online, on social media. It was

0:55:400:55:43

rousing, wasn't it?

It was rousing.

She starts by talking about sit on

0:55:430:55:48

the floor with her mum watching TV

and seeing Sydney and goes on to

0:55:480:55:52

talk...

To see him go on stage to

accept an award. As a little black

0:55:520:56:00

girl to see a black man in a white

tie winning an award had such an

0:56:000:56:06

impact on her?

Then she goes on to

talk about a young woman that made,

0:56:060:56:12

that changed civil rights activism

in America, when she was gang raped

0:56:120:56:16

by a number of white men and she

said that that woman died a few days

0:56:160:56:20

ago and in her 98th birthday, but

she lived to see the changes that

0:56:200:56:26

were coming forth and that were

going through. She also talked about

0:56:260:56:29

the fact that she didn't want the

next generation of women to not have

0:56:290:56:37

a voice. Her generation of women

haven't had a voice. Writers and

0:56:370:56:44

directors, a lot of Hollywood have

started a campaign called Time's Up,

0:56:440:56:48

it was a full page spread in the New

York Times last week and it is a

0:56:480:56:53

campaign to give people that want to

have a voice, the ability to have a

0:56:530:56:56

voice. They are raising money. About

$13 million has been raised, not

0:56:560:57:01

just for people in the entertainment

industry, they are focussing on

0:57:010:57:05

industries where women can't afford

to defend themselves if they bring a

0:57:050:57:09

case against somebody that they feel

has been sexually harassing them.

So

0:57:090:57:16

apart from Oprah winning the

Lifetime Achievement Award. Who won

0:57:160:57:19

what?

This is a twist of many

things. It is a comedy and it is

0:57:190:57:26

really dark, it stars Sam Rockwell

and Frances McDermott. She won Best

0:57:260:57:35

Drama. I would recommend it if I

could and Big Little Lies. It is

0:57:350:57:44

about domestic abuse, it is produced

by Reese Witherspoon. It won best

0:57:440:57:51

limited TV series, Gary Oldman plays

Winston Churchill, amazing

0:57:510:57:58

transformation, Ewan McGregor won

for Best Actor for Fargo, there were

0:57:580:58:04

a few that didn't make the rung of

the ladder that people were

0:58:040:58:07

disappointed about. The Golden

Globes are the awards that are

0:58:070:58:11

tipped for the Oscars. So everyone

is looking to see what could be the

0:58:110:58:14

Oscars.

They are a big clue, aren't

they?

They are a big clue. Three

0:58:140:58:21

billboards, I would be surprised if

it didn't sweep the board.

A word

0:58:210:58:25

about the host, did he get the tone

right?

It is a tough gig especially

0:58:250:58:31

in this climate. This all started

back in October with Harvey

0:58:310:58:35

Weinstein and a New York Times

article depicking some of the sexual

0:58:350:58:40

harassment, it has been rumbling on

for a while. A lot of stars now

0:58:400:58:43

won't really walk red carpets and do

interviews because they don't want

0:58:430:58:46

to be asked about this. Seth Myers

had to host a show that the world

0:58:460:58:52

was watching with a black dress code

in, I guess, opposition to what's

0:58:520:58:56

been going on. He did start it off

by saying for the male nominees in

0:58:560:59:00

the room tonight, this is the first

time in three months, it won't be

0:59:000:59:05

terrifying to hear your name read

out! He did make a couple of those

0:59:050:59:09

kind of jokes. I feel like his tone

was OK. Some of the women made some

0:59:090:59:14

jokes. Gina Davis made a joke about

men coming to accept their award and

0:59:140:59:19

they had previously agreed to have

half their salary halved so that

0:59:190:59:23

women could make more. So there was

a good tone. It was all not in

0:59:230:59:28

horrific jest, it was highlighting

an issue that they cannot ignore.

0:59:280:59:31

Yes. It was appropriate and edgy.

Indeed.

Thank you very much. Thank

0:59:310:59:35

you.

0:59:350:59:39

We will bring you the news and sport

in a moment.

0:59:390:59:45

Let's get the latest

weather update with Carol.

0:59:450:59:48

Let's get the latest

weather update with Carol.

0:59:480:59:51

Temperatures across parts of

Southern Scotland and northern

0:59:510:59:53

England fell as low as minus ten

Celsius in places and now, they are

0:59:530:59:59

not much higher. If you look at our

Weather Watcher pictures, this shows

0:59:591:00:05

you the lovely frosty picture in

Northumberland. Here we had clear

1:00:051:00:09

skies, northern England and parts of

Scotland, that's where the

1:00:091:00:11

temperature fell. The lowest we

could find was near Perth at minus

1:00:111:00:17

ten Celsius.

But where we had more cloud and

1:00:171:00:24

still do across southern counties,

in swannage for example, it was plus

1:00:241:00:27

five Celsius. So, there is a fair

bit of cloud across southern areas.

1:00:271:00:31

You can see this again. Lovely

weather picture from Norfolk

1:00:311:00:36

illustrating that point. Through

this morning the cloud across

1:00:361:00:38

southern England and South Wales

will migrate northwards. There is a

1:00:381:00:42

noticeable breeze. It will feel cold

despite the fact that temperatures

1:00:421:00:46

are higher here and by the time we

get to the afternoon, it is northern

1:00:461:00:49

England in particular that's

favoured for a fair bit of sunshine.

1:00:491:00:53

For Northern Ireland, and also for

Western Scotland, we have got cloud

1:00:531:00:57

and as that comes in, it means it

will be bright rather than sunny.

1:00:571:01:01

But push eastwards, we're back into

the sunshine. Look at the

1:01:011:01:05

temperatures, top temperature in

Inverness and Glasgow and Edinburgh

1:01:051:01:09

only one Celsius. Not much better in

Kendal where we are looking at two.

1:01:091:01:14

We run into the cloud through the

rest of England and Wales and

1:01:141:01:17

southern counties and the cloud is

thick enough for some drizzle. Even

1:01:171:01:21

snow grains and if you are wondering

what is a snow grain? It is frozen

1:01:211:01:24

drizzle. It is very small particles.

Temperatures up to about five

1:01:241:01:29

Celsius in London. As we head

through the evening and overnight,

1:01:291:01:33

the cloud continues to move

northwards to all, but the far

1:01:331:01:37

north-west of Scotland. It will be a

breezy night. As a result of this,

1:01:371:01:40

it won't be as cold as the night

just gone. We will have patchy

1:01:401:01:44

drizzle and know grains on the hills

and where we have got the breaks, we

1:01:441:01:48

could see ice or indeed k some fog

patches. But tomorrow, look at the

1:01:481:01:53

spacing on the isobars, not much in

the way of win until later. As this

1:01:531:01:57

Atlantic system comes in, it will

bring rain and strengthening winds.

1:01:571:02:01

So as we start the day tomorrow,

it's going to be cloudy. Again,

1:02:011:02:05

there will be patchy drizzle around

and out towards the west, all the

1:02:051:02:09

time the wind will be picking up.

Then we will see the rain later in

1:02:091:02:13

the day start to arrive. Temperature

wise, where we have got that going

1:02:131:02:17

on, ten Celsius in Plymouth and four

Celsius in Newcastle. If we pick up

1:02:171:02:23

the progress of the weather front it

continues to move from the west

1:02:231:02:26

towards the east. In doing so, it

loses some of its energy so the rain

1:02:261:02:31

on that weather front will tend to

become more patchy but it engages

1:02:311:02:38

with the cold air over the hill of

northern England, Scotland and once

1:02:381:02:44

again we could see a wintry flavour

to the weather. Things are quieter,

1:02:441:02:49

again a fair bit of sunshine around

and temperature wise a change, we

1:02:491:02:53

are looking at highs of five to

about ten Celsius.

1:02:531:03:02

Thank you very much, Carol.

1:03:021:03:09

Theresa May is set to reshuffle her

Cabinet later today.

1:03:091:03:12

A number of new faces are expected

to join her top team.

1:03:121:03:14

We'll be speaking to

Conservative MPs Kwasi Kwarteng

1:03:141:03:16

and Rachel MacLean.

1:03:161:03:18

Are you expecting to retain your job

or are you expecting a promotion?

1:03:181:03:22

What does the Prime Minister's

Cabinet reshuffle mean to you? Who

1:03:221:03:26

do you want to see in Theresa May's

top team? We will be speaking to two

1:03:261:03:32

Conservative MPs about what changes

they want to see.

1:03:321:03:35

Last night, the Golden Globe film

awards were handed out

1:03:351:03:37

at a glittering ceremony in Los

Angeles.

1:03:371:03:39

It was the first major awards

ceremony since Hollywood

1:03:391:03:41

was hit by a series

of sexual harassment scandals.

1:03:411:03:43

It was a night of powerful speeches

and statements of unity,

1:03:431:03:46

and we will have all

of the highlights for you.

1:03:461:03:48

So I want all the girls watching

here and now to know that a new date

1:03:481:03:52

is on the horizon! -- a new day.

We

will talk live to our showbiz

1:03:521:03:55

reporter who has just covered his

20th Golden Globe awards. Fewer

1:03:551:03:58

women who suffered heart attacks

would die if they were given the

1:03:581:04:00

same treatment as men, according to

a new study. We will talk to two

1:04:001:04:08

women who had heart attacks in their

30s.

1:04:081:04:14

Annita McVeigh is in the BBC

Newsroom with a summary

1:04:141:04:16

of the rest of the day's news.

1:04:161:04:23

Theresa May is expected to make

several changes to her Cabinet team

1:04:231:04:25

today in the most extensive

reshuffle since she

1:04:251:04:27

became Prime Minister.

1:04:271:04:28

These will include naming

a replacement for Damian Green,

1:04:281:04:31

who was in effect Deputy Prime

Minister before he was dismissed

1:04:311:04:33

for breaching the ministerial code.

1:04:331:04:34

Changes to senior ministerial

positions are expected

1:04:341:04:36

to be announced first.

1:04:361:04:37

Appointments to more junior roles

will follow tomorrow.

1:04:371:04:39

Many of Hollywood's biggests stars

have used the Golden Globe Awards

1:04:391:04:42

in Beverley Hills to show

their support for campaigns

1:04:421:04:44

against sexual harassment

inside the entertainment industry

1:04:441:04:46

and beyond.

During a politically-charged

1:04:461:04:47

evening, almost all those attending

chose to wear black,

1:04:471:04:49

and several celebrities brought

activists on gender and racial

1:04:491:04:51

equality as their guests.

1:04:511:04:52

Oprah Winfrey used her acceptance

speech for an Outstanding

1:04:521:04:54

Contribution Award to speak out

against intolerance and abuse.

1:04:541:05:04

Three women have accused

the Australian actor Craig McLachlan

1:05:091:05:11

of indecent assault during a tour

of the musical

1:05:111:05:13

The Rocky Horror Show.

1:05:131:05:14

The 52-year-old, best known

for his roles playing a heart-throb

1:05:141:05:16

in the long-running TV soap operas

Neighbours and Home and Away,

1:05:161:05:19

says the allegations

are "baseless and vicious".

1:05:191:05:21

The women say they raised

complaints with the theatre

1:05:211:05:23

company at the time,

but no action was taken.

1:05:231:05:31

The BBC's China Editor,

Carrie Gracie, has stepped down

1:05:311:05:35

in protest at what she called

an "indefensible pay gap between men

1:05:351:05:38

and women" at the Corporation.

1:05:381:05:41

In an open letter addressed

to licence-fee payers,

1:05:411:05:43

she accused the BBC of "breaking

equality law" because of

1:05:431:05:45

the discrepancy between her pay

and that of her fellow international

1:05:451:05:48

editors who are men.

1:05:481:05:49

A BBC spokesman said fairness

in pay was "vital".

1:05:491:05:55

The Justice Secretary,

David Liddington, is likely to make

1:05:571:05:59

a statement to MPs today over

the Parole Board's decision

1:05:591:06:01

to release the black cab

rapist John Worboys.

1:06:011:06:09

The former taxi driver,

who is suspected of attacking more

1:06:091:06:12

than 100 women in his London cab,

has served ten years in prison

1:06:121:06:15

after being convicted of 19

offences against 12 women.

1:06:151:06:17

A parole board approved his release,

saying they were "confident"

1:06:171:06:19

he won't reoffend.

1:06:191:06:27

And abuse lawyer representing the

victims of Worboys told this

1:06:271:06:30

programme but questions of -- were

raised over whether he is ready for

1:06:301:06:36

release.

1:06:361:06:37

I think we have real

concerns that he is a very

1:06:371:06:40

very manipulative man,

that he may have manipulated

1:06:401:06:42

the Parole Board and the powers that

be into convincing them

1:06:421:06:44

that he is safe to be released.

1:06:441:06:46

And what has changed?

1:06:461:06:47

Has he admitted his guilt or not?

1:06:471:06:49

Because if he has admitted his

guilt, he has admitted a modus

1:06:491:06:52

operandi which involves

the deliberate luring into his cab

1:06:521:06:54

of vulnerable women,

the drugging of those women,

1:06:541:06:56

and then potentially sexual

assault or rape of women.

1:06:561:06:59

An accountancy firm advising

the Grenfell inquiry has quit

1:06:591:07:01

amid concerns over a conflict

of interest.

1:07:011:07:03

KPMG, which audits three

of the firms being investigated,

1:07:031:07:05

also works with the Royal Borough

of Kensington and Chelsea,

1:07:051:07:08

where the tower is located.

1:07:081:07:09

The firm said it had

"mutually agreed" to step

1:07:091:07:11

down from the inquiry.

1:07:111:07:17

There are growing fears

of an environmental disaster

1:07:191:07:23

in the East China Sea as a huge

tanker continues to leak oil two

1:07:231:07:26

days after colliding

with a cargo ship.

1:07:261:07:27

The Iranian vessel,

which was carrying about 1 million

1:07:271:07:30

barrels of oil to South Korea,

is still on fire.

1:07:301:07:32

Rescue efforts are being hampered

by a large oil slick

1:07:321:07:34

and dense clouds of smoke.

1:07:341:07:36

32 Iranian crew members

are still missing.

1:07:361:07:44

A ten-year study has found women

are three times more likely to die

1:07:441:07:47

in the year following a heart attack

than men because they're not

1:07:471:07:50

given the same treatment.

1:07:501:07:51

Analysis of more than 180,000

patients over a decade

1:07:511:07:53

by Leeds University researchers

found women were less likely

1:07:531:07:55

to receive recommended treatments

including bypass surgery or statins.

1:07:551:07:57

When they did, the gap in mortality

decreased dramatically.

1:07:571:08:05

Rail commuters are facing disruption

today as staff at five train firms

1:08:101:08:13

begin a fresh wave of strikes

in disputes about

1:08:131:08:15

the role of guards.

1:08:151:08:16

The union involved, the RMT,

has urged Ministers to convene

1:08:161:08:18

a meeting with the train companies

to try to reach a deal.

1:08:181:08:21

The firms say the union is showing

its disregard for passengers.

1:08:211:08:27

That's a summary of

the latest BBC News.

1:08:271:08:29

More at 10:30am.

1:08:291:08:36

Thank you. Thank you for your

comments. We have some on equal pay,

1:08:361:08:40

which we will be discussing in the

next hour or so after the BBC's

1:08:401:08:44

China editor resigned from her post

in protest over equal pay. And also

1:08:441:08:49

some comments about John Worboys.

The Justice Secretary is expected to

1:08:491:08:53

make a statement in the Commons

today. Politico Phil says, John

1:08:531:08:59

Worboys' case highlights the

obsession with secrecy and the laws

1:08:591:09:05

and processes they use are created

by the very politicians that are

1:09:051:09:10

criticising the decision. The

victims need to learn that the penal

1:09:101:09:13

system isn't there for revenge. I'm

not sure that white makes sense, but

1:09:131:09:16

anyway we got the just. If you are

getting in touch, you are very

1:09:161:09:20

welcome.

1:09:201:09:21

Do get in touch with us

throughout the morning.

1:09:211:09:23

Use the hashtag #VictoriaLive.

1:09:231:09:24

If you text, you will be charged

at the standard network rate.

1:09:241:09:27

Let's get some sport with Jessica.

1:09:271:09:28

Good morning, Victoria. It's all

over for England in the Ashers, they

1:09:281:09:30

have ended their poor series against

Australia with defeat in the fifth

1:09:301:09:34

and final Test in Sydney. Captain

Joe Root was in hospital with a

1:09:341:09:38

tummy bug. He was able to resume his

innings but he had to retire on 58

1:09:381:09:43

with illness. England's tale order

wilted in the scorching heat of the

1:09:431:09:49

Sydney Cricket Ground, all out for

180, losing the Ashes Series 4-0 and

1:09:491:09:54

haven't won a test in Australia for

seven years.

We've known for a few

1:09:541:10:01

weeks now that they were going to do

it, but seeing them do it is tough

1:10:011:10:05

to watch. There's not a lot we can

do about it. We've not played well

1:10:051:10:10

enough, and they deserve to win it.

We've got to give them credit. You

1:10:101:10:14

know, they are well within their

rights to be over the moon about it.

1:10:141:10:17

I do think it has been closer than

4-0. I think, you know, we've been

1:10:171:10:23

on top in some games if not all of

the game at some stage, we just

1:10:231:10:27

haven't capitalised on the key

moment.

Arsenal have been knocked

1:10:271:10:30

out of the FA Cup in the third round

stage for the first time in 22

1:10:301:10:34

years. They were well beaten, 4-2,

by Nottingham Forest at the city

1:10:341:10:38

ground. The defender scored the best

goal of the game. That made it 2-1

1:10:381:10:45

to the house. The Championship side

secured all three points from the

1:10:451:10:49

penalty spot, their second of the

game. A valuable win for Nottingham

1:10:491:10:53

Forest, who only last week sacked

their manager. The fourth-round draw

1:10:531:10:57

is live on BBC Two from 7pm tonight.

Video assistant referee technology

1:10:571:11:01

will be used in football in England

for the first time in a competitive

1:11:011:11:05

club match night. It will be used

for potentially matched changing

1:11:051:11:09

decisions. While referees will the

power to stop the game and consult

1:11:091:11:18

video replays to help with getting

decisions right. The FA Cup

1:11:181:11:20

third-round game between Brighton

and Crystal Palace will use the

1:11:201:11:23

technology tonight. Referees boss

might cry you said it will never be

1:11:231:11:26

100% perfect, but if through this we

make it about 4% of incorrect

1:11:261:11:31

decisions becomes 2%, we have

benefited the game. One final

1:11:311:11:36

football line, Philippe Coutinho's

move to Barcelona from Liverpool

1:11:361:11:40

will be rubber-stamped later this

morning. He will be paraded at the

1:11:401:11:43

Camp Nou and will come the second

most expensive player in the world.

1:11:431:11:48

With only his fellow Brazilian

Neymar ahead of him. Incredible

1:11:481:11:53

amount of money. One tennis line,

Kyle Edmund has pulled out of the

1:11:531:11:57

awkward open because of ankle strain

a week before the start of the

1:11:571:12:00

Australian open. The British number

two hurt his right ankle in the

1:12:001:12:03

previous match and will have it

assessed this week. With Andy Murray

1:12:031:12:07

having pulled out already because of

a hip injury, Edmund would be the

1:12:071:12:11

highest ranked Briton in the singles

should he play. That's all the sport

1:12:111:12:16

for now, Victoria.

Geis, Jess, thank

you. It is 10:11am, welcome to the

1:12:161:12:23

programme. -- cheers.

1:12:231:12:24

Theresa May has begun making changes

to her front-bench team after losing

1:12:241:12:27

three Cabinet ministers at the end

of last year.

1:12:271:12:29

She'll be hoping the moves

can inject some fresh

1:12:291:12:31

life into her Government

and get her on the front foot

1:12:311:12:34

after a torrid 2017.

1:12:341:12:35

So, what should the new team look

like, and what message should it

1:12:351:12:38

send to the country?

1:12:381:12:40

Let's go live to Downing Street and

talk to Norman Smith, who is there.

1:12:401:12:45

Patrick McLoughlin, the Conservative

Party chairman, is to lose his job.

1:12:451:12:48

You told us that an hour ago. Who

are the hot favourites to take over?

1:12:481:12:55

That's a very good question. I

suspect it will be somebody who Mrs

1:12:551:12:59

May has complete faith in. She has

shown herself to be the sort of

1:12:591:13:03

Prime Minister who promote those she

absolutely trust. It could be

1:13:031:13:07

somebody like Brandon Lewis, the

Immigration Minister. He has worked

1:13:071:13:11

in the Home Office with her.

Possibly, we don't know. But the

1:13:111:13:15

fact that Patrick McLoughlin has

been elbowed out of the wake does

1:13:151:13:18

tell us the story of this reshuffle,

which is clearly Mrs May wants to

1:13:181:13:23

get rid of some of those ministers

who have been around the block a few

1:13:231:13:27

times, maybe been in Cabinet 45, six

years, never reached highest

1:13:271:13:32

positions. And maybe got as far as

they are going to go. Patrick

1:13:321:13:38

McLoughlin, I mean, he's been a

minister since... The late 1980s,

1:13:381:13:43

since Mrs Thatcher. So he really has

been here a long time. We can expect

1:13:431:13:48

some middle ranking names to be

moved to one side. Crucially,

1:13:481:13:52

however, this does not look like the

sort of reshuffle that is really

1:13:521:13:55

going to make the headlines, with

big names being axed. All of the

1:13:551:13:58

signs are that the figures like

Boris Johnson, like Amber Rudd, like

1:13:581:14:04

Philip Hammond, they will stay. As

do the Brexit ministers David Davis

1:14:041:14:08

and Liam Fox. We saw David Davis

earlier popping into work and we saw

1:14:081:14:13

Boris Johnson popping into work too,

that suggests to me that they are

1:14:131:14:17

not going to move. What we seem to

be shaping up for today is a kind of

1:14:171:14:24

mid-ranking reshuffle, not wholesale

butchery but a little bit of calming

1:14:241:14:26

here and there are.

Down is pretty

brutal, the way you describe it. He

1:14:261:14:30

wells is likely to you so much --

who else is likely to lose their

1:14:301:14:36

job?

The names being cast around

Justine Greening, the Education

1:14:361:14:41

Secretary, Greg Clark, the Business

Secretary, Andrea Leadsom may be as

1:14:411:14:45

Leader of the House. They have all

been imposed. Time. But getting rid

1:14:451:14:50

of them or moving them to one side,

it carries risks. Justine Greening,

1:14:501:14:57

comprehensive educated Education

Secretary, Greg Clark's father was a

1:14:571:15:01

mock man, I think. Patrick

McLoughlin, a former mine. -- was a

1:15:011:15:07

milkman. These people do not come

from what might be regarded as a

1:15:071:15:11

traditional, privileged background,

which makes it harder to move them

1:15:111:15:14

to one side. But if you are going to

protect the big beasts, you've got

1:15:141:15:18

to find some space somewhere,

because you get the feeling there is

1:15:181:15:21

real pressure building up on the

backbenches from new Tory MPs who

1:15:211:15:24

are putting up their hands and

saying, hey, what about us, give us

1:15:241:15:28

a go. Mrs May has to make some space

somewhere. It is those long-serving

1:15:281:15:36

middle ranking ministers who are

looking vulnerable.

Thank you,

1:15:361:15:38

Norman. So, watch of the new team

look like and what message should it

1:15:381:15:42

centre the country? -- what should

the new team look like.

1:15:421:15:45

Let's ask two of the party's MPs

who've not yet made it

1:15:451:15:47

into a ministerial job.

1:15:471:15:48

Rachel Maclean was elected in 2015

as the MP for Redditch.

1:15:481:15:51

Kwasi Kwarteng was elected in 2010.

1:15:511:15:52

He's the MP for Spelthorne

in Surrey, and works

1:15:521:15:55

for Chancellor Philip Hammond.

1:15:551:15:57

He became his parliamentary private

sec after the 2017 general election.

1:15:571:16:00

Welcome, both of you.

1:16:001:16:03

According to commentators,

1:16:031:16:04

the PM wants more MPs from ethnic

minorities and more women

1:16:041:16:07

in her top team.

1:16:071:16:08

Are either you of expecting a call?

1:16:081:16:14

I'm not expecting anything. I have

been in Parliament for eight years

1:16:141:16:17

now. I have been focussed in the

last six months on the Treasury. I

1:16:171:16:23

love my job. There is important

House of Commons Business Today.

1:16:231:16:27

There is a customs Bill today.

You

would like promotion?

Well, I have

1:16:271:16:31

been around for ap long time. I have

seen lots of reshuffles. I have seen

1:16:311:16:35

people coming and I have seen people

going and the best way to prepare

1:16:351:16:39

for a reshuffle is to focus on the

job in hand.

You would like a

1:16:391:16:44

promotion?

I would like to serve the

Government in whatever way I can.

1:16:441:16:49

Who is this reshuffle for?

Well, I

think it is important to move the

1:16:491:16:53

party forward. Any organisation to

stay strong has to change. It has to

1:16:531:16:58

change with the times. We had the

election and we need to move forward

1:16:581:17:01

from there. I think it is very

important to reflect the country

1:17:011:17:05

that we're governing today.

So you are expecting more women, you

1:17:051:17:10

are expecting women from ethnic

minorities

We have a lot of MPs from

1:17:101:17:15

ethnic minorities and women as well,

but we have a lot of talent in the

1:17:151:17:18

party and there are people there

that could add more to our party and

1:17:181:17:21

to the country.

You work for the Chancellor as I

1:17:211:17:25

said, what does it say about the

weakness of Mrs May's position that

1:17:251:17:30

she can't sack him and she has

wanted to do that since before the

1:17:301:17:35

last election?

The reason she is not

going to sack the Chancellor is he

1:17:351:17:38

is doing a great job. He has the

trust of people in the City and

1:17:381:17:42

people across the business community

respect him. I speak to these people

1:17:421:17:45

all the time and he is someone who

is seen to be a very clear,

1:17:451:17:48

commanding figure. He has got a good

grasp of detail and that's why he is

1:17:481:17:53

going to stay in his job.

But,

everybody says because of the

1:17:531:17:57

weakness of her position, losing the

majority at the general election,

1:17:571:18:00

that is the reason why she can't

move people like Philip Hammond,

1:18:001:18:05

like Boris Johnson?

In terms of what

you were saying about weakness, I've

1:18:051:18:08

read today that the reshuffle is a

sign of strength. If we look at

1:18:081:18:11

where we were six months ago, people

were casting doubt as to whether she

1:18:111:18:15

was going to stay. What has happened

is the position is very much

1:18:151:18:18

stabilised, she has led from the

front and I think this reshuffle is

1:18:181:18:22

a sign of the fact that she is

taking responsibility and leading

1:18:221:18:25

and that's what the country expects.

Most of the Cabinet went to private

1:18:251:18:31

school followed by Oxford or

Cambridge, as did you, is that a

1:18:311:18:35

problem for Mrs May and her Cabinet?

I don't know about the statistics,

1:18:351:18:41

about Oxford or Cambridge.

I looked

them up yesterday.

The important

1:18:411:18:44

thing is you get the right people

doing the right job. There is too

1:18:441:18:48

much fixation about gender and race,

about that sort of thing...

Too much

1:18:481:18:55

fixation about background, gender

and race.

Diversity is crucial, but

1:18:551:18:59

I don't think we should get too hung

up about that, we need to look at

1:18:591:19:03

what the best people can do and what

is the most appropriate position for

1:19:031:19:07

them and their talents.

What about

being representative of the country

1:19:071:19:11

at large?

We do have that. If you

look at the Conservative Party as a

1:19:111:19:16

whole, there is much more diversity

than was the case. When I was

1:19:161:19:20

fighting my first seat in 2005,

there were no ethnic minority MPs

1:19:201:19:24

that year. On the Conservative side.

We have had a huge stride. So, I

1:19:241:19:29

think the Conservative Party has a

good story to tell on that and I

1:19:291:19:33

think that diversity is important.

Is it a problem for you that there

1:19:331:19:38

aren't that many working class

Cabinet Ministers

There are people

1:19:381:19:41

who come from that background that

come from that background.

Most went

1:19:411:19:46

to private school followed by Oxford

or Cambridge.

I went to a

1:19:461:19:52

comprehensive school and a lot of

other people do well.

I'm talking

1:19:521:19:56

about the Cabinet?

If they come from

a working class background or a

1:19:561:20:01

different background, we have to

reflect the country.

When you think

1:20:011:20:04

back to Mrs May on the steps of

Downing Street when she took over as

1:20:041:20:07

Prime Minister and talked about the

burning injustices and talked about

1:20:071:20:12

people in poverty and black people

and women and people with mental

1:20:121:20:15

health problems then surely she

needs a team to led flect the

1:20:151:20:18

diversity of the country and she

doesn't have that particularly at

1:20:181:20:22

the moment and not even potentially

with the changes she is about to

1:20:221:20:26

make?

You're right to say, it is

about the team. So she can't do it

1:20:261:20:30

on her own. She has to be supported

bay strong team and because you are

1:20:301:20:35

not necessarily from a working class

background doesn't mean you can't

1:20:351:20:38

have sympathy. As MPs we all see

people from our constituency day in

1:20:381:20:42

and day out from all walks of life

and being a politician is about

1:20:421:20:46

having that empathy and having the

right policies.

You will have seen

1:20:461:20:51

and heard the comments of the

Windsor Council leader calling for

1:20:511:20:57

the police to take action against

aggressive begging. You will see

1:20:571:21:01

have the promotion of the

Conservative supporting journalist

1:21:011:21:05

Toby Young to a public body despite

talking about women's breasts and

1:21:051:21:11

other grim things. Don't those two

things send the message out that the

1:21:111:21:16

Conservative Party is a nasty party.

I think what Toby Young said was

1:21:161:21:21

unacceptable and the Prime Minister

made that point yesterday. Whether

1:21:211:21:23

it can affect his ability to do the

job, is another question. Of course,

1:21:231:21:27

these remarks are not helpful. They

do not add in, enhance the

1:21:271:21:31

reputation of the Conservative

Party, but what I would say in

1:21:311:21:34

response some of the things you said

earlier is the party has made huge

1:21:341:21:38

improvement and is getting better.

And as I said, ten years ago we had

1:21:381:21:43

very few representatives from across

diverse community and we're getting

1:21:431:21:46

better. Have we reached the point of

perfection? No, we can improve.

1:21:461:21:52

Theresa May just arriving at Downing

Street ready to reshuffle. I'm

1:21:521:21:55

asking about the perception though,

the perception and those examples I

1:21:551:22:01

have given you?

I have accepted they

don't enhance the party. There has

1:22:011:22:06

been massive improvement in my time

in the party but we can always do

1:22:061:22:09

more. I completely accept that.

Rachel, what would you say about

1:22:091:22:13

those two examples and what message

they send out about the Conservative

1:22:131:22:17

Party in 2018?

Those comments are

unacceptable and Theresa May has

1:22:171:22:20

also said the same thing, but we

need to look beyond what happens

1:22:201:22:23

with respect in the BBC and in

Westminster to the policies that

1:22:231:22:27

make a difference to people's lives

and actually what they care about

1:22:271:22:30

and what makes a difference to their

life isn't so much those things, it

1:22:301:22:33

is the things they see in the

country, they see Brexit being

1:22:331:22:37

delivered and us starting from a

position of strength and they see

1:22:371:22:40

real improvement in jobs. Those are

the things they care about.

They see

1:22:401:22:43

parts of the NHS crumbling despite

the extra money that's been put in.

1:22:431:22:48

Railway fares going up dramatically

since the Conservatives came in in

1:22:481:22:52

2010 and a lack of affordable

housing?

Well in Redditch we have

1:22:521:22:56

seen an improvement in the A&E

performance since last year.

That's

1:22:561:23:00

not a consolation to those A&E

departments that are really

1:23:001:23:03

struggling?

Of course. I think, you

know, the Prime Minister has been

1:23:031:23:06

very clear that we always need to

get it right for everybody. But

1:23:061:23:10

there is more preparation that's

gone in this year compared to last

1:23:101:23:14

year and for many years, there is

significant government funding gone

1:23:141:23:17

in. Truth is the demand...

Not

enough according to any NHS boss.

1:23:171:23:22

Well, the demand is rising all the

time.

Invest to meet the demand.

1:23:221:23:26

That's what the Government is mitted

to do. If you remember the general

1:23:261:23:31

election, 2015...

Well, I remember

the Budget.

Can we put in more?

1:23:311:23:36

Should we put in more? There is a

case to put in more money as you

1:23:361:23:40

know. But I think the Government has

said that we will commit to £10

1:23:401:23:46

billion more across the next few

years and that's enough to meet some

1:23:461:23:50

of the challenges. Now, will it meet

all the challenges? Maybe not, but

1:23:501:23:53

it is a step in the right direction.

OK, thank you both.

1:23:531:23:59

Still to come:

1:23:591:24:01

Last night's Golden Globes was

dominated by a campaign by Hollywood

1:24:011:24:03

stars against sexual harassment.

1:24:031:24:04

We'll be asking whether this marks

a change within the film industry.

1:24:041:24:13

Commuters on the rail network

are facing disruption this morning,

1:24:131:24:17

as staff at five train firms begin

a fresh wave of strikes in separate

1:24:171:24:20

disputes over "rail safety".

1:24:201:24:23

RMT members at Northern, Merseyrail,

South Western Railway,

1:24:231:24:26

Southern and Greater Anglia

will also be staging a further two

1:24:261:24:28

days of industrial action

on Wednesday and Friday.

1:24:281:24:32

Our correspondent Ian Palmer

is at Waterloo Station.

1:24:321:24:38

So what are commuters saying to you

this morning, Ian?

Well, this

1:24:381:24:42

morning I have to say early this

morning, they were saying that the

1:24:421:24:47

train journey into London as very

difficult. One commuter told me that

1:24:471:24:51

she felt like a sardine up on her

journey in and two or three other

1:24:511:24:57

people said the same thing. Others

have said that their journey in was

1:24:571:25:02

fine. In terms of south western

railway which operates out of

1:25:021:25:10

Waterloo Station, the billboards are

not showing any cal sell lations,

1:25:101:25:16

but -- cancellations but the

commuters are experiencing one or

1:25:161:25:19

two problems. The reason why south

western railway operates 1500

1:25:191:25:25

services a day and it is saying it

hopes to put on 70% of its

1:25:251:25:29

timetable. That's 450 so-called

cancellations. The strike started

1:25:291:25:36

today. It will finish at midnight.

There is another strike on Wednesday

1:25:361:25:40

and another one followed for Friday.

Where there are difficulties on the

1:25:401:25:45

rail network, there will be

replacement buses so, commuters

1:25:451:25:50

coming in to work and obviously

going home tonight will have to be

1:25:501:25:53

very patient.

And what is it all about?

1:25:531:25:59

It's all about who closes and opens

the train doors. Now, train

1:25:591:26:05

operating companies want drivers

with new trains that are being

1:26:051:26:10

rolled out to operate the doors. The

RMT says guards should be the ones

1:26:101:26:15

who should open the doors because

they have better lines of sight.

1:26:151:26:20

They say that this is the only way

of ensuring safety for passengers

1:26:201:26:25

and ensuring that people who are

vulnerable and disabled get the

1:26:251:26:29

service they deserve. The RMT has

written a letter to the Secretary of

1:26:291:26:34

State, Chris Grayling, asking for a

rail summit between the rail

1:26:341:26:37

operating companies and the

Government. So far, it has yet to

1:26:371:26:40

get a response.

Thank you very much, Ian. Ian Palmer

1:26:401:26:46

at Waterloo Station in London.

1:26:461:26:49

The film awards season got under way

tonight in Los Angeles

1:26:491:26:52

with the 75th Golden Globes,

with stars of film and television

1:26:521:26:54

taking a stand on the red

carpet in a protest

1:26:541:26:57

against sexual misconduct.

1:26:571:27:01

Claire Foy accompanied by her

co-star Matt Smith explained to

1:27:011:27:05

James Cook the importance of backing

the campaign.

It couldn't be more

1:27:051:27:09

important. I think it is a show of

solidarity and it's not about what

1:27:091:27:15

we're wearing. It's about what we've

got to say and who we are and it is

1:27:151:27:19

a message to everyone around the

world. It is just about saying look,

1:27:191:27:22

we are all in it together. It's not

just about our industry, it is about

1:27:221:27:26

every industry and every woman, it

is about saying we are behind you in

1:27:261:27:30

whatever way it is.

Do you think

this industry is genuinely changing?

1:27:301:27:33

Yeah.

In what way?

It can't, nothing

changes about things not existing as

1:27:331:27:40

they have done previously and there

is way that I am going to be in a

1:27:401:27:44

room and be treated the way people

have been treated and not stand up

1:27:441:27:47

and say I don't agree with that. The

reason why that was able to take

1:27:471:27:52

place is silence and people feeling

like they can't and I don't feel

1:27:521:27:55

like that anymore. I feel like I am

able to stand up and I have someone

1:27:551:27:58

I can go and tell and I can talk to

people and that's the messages. It's

1:27:581:28:03

the only reason women are able to be

treated like that is because of fear

1:28:031:28:06

they won't be supported and this is

a message of saying, no, we will.

1:28:061:28:12

Let's speak now to film

critic Sandro Monetti.

1:28:121:28:14

Showbiz and celebrity reporter

in LA covering his 20th

1:28:141:28:21

Golden Globe Awards.

1:28:211:28:22

Siobhan Synott, is in Glasgow.

1:28:221:28:24

In the studio with us is Jean Rogers

- a councillor from Equity,

1:28:241:28:27

which is the UK actors' union.

1:28:271:28:28

What do you take from last night?

Never has there been an awards show

1:28:281:28:33

of significance. Hollywood stars

have a real power when they get

1:28:331:28:37

together and unite and speak under

one voice. What Claire Foy was

1:28:371:28:41

saying there was very much echoed by

the stars in the room and you have

1:28:411:28:44

got got a sense this was more than

just sound bites. This was a

1:28:441:28:49

movement. This is a turning of the

page in history and Hollywood was

1:28:491:28:54

sending the message loud and clear.

It found its champion in Oprah

1:28:541:29:01

Winfrey, Oprah gave the most

stirring speech I've ever heard on a

1:29:011:29:05

Hollywood stage. So I think,

Hollywood was using its power for

1:29:051:29:09

good. They were speaking with one

voice and they were saying time's

1:29:091:29:12

up.

Do you agree?

Oh yes, very much.

1:29:121:29:16

Very much. There is a movement over

here era, 50/50, which is equal

1:29:161:29:25

representation for acstresses and

over in Hollywood, it's just

1:29:251:29:29

wonderful to see them coming

together and linking, not just the

1:29:291:29:33

business, but the way in which the

business represents the public. And

1:29:331:29:37

the public needs to see itself.

Oprah Winfrey, if you remember,

1:29:371:29:43

champ beyond equal representation. A

wonderful film about you cannot be

1:29:431:29:47

what you cannot see. So yes.

And do

you think it is definitely a turning

1:29:471:29:54

of the page as Sandro put it? Is

this the end of the conversation?

1:29:541:29:57

No. No, no, this is a chance to have

the proper conversation and be

1:29:571:30:02

listened to and have a conversation

where men as well as women are in

1:30:021:30:08

the room talking about it. For so

many years representing Equity I've

1:30:081:30:14

been in gunneder equality rooms full

of women. We're all talking about

1:30:141:30:19

it, but now is the time for the

Equity women's committee feel we've

1:30:191:30:24

got that because we're going to prot

moat a new casting concept at the

1:30:241:30:31

British Film Institute on 18th

January and we hope that that...

1:30:311:30:35

What will be different about that?

1:30:351:30:41

It will look at casting and talk

about the neutral roles that are

1:30:411:30:47

stereotyped, unconscious bias comes

into it, you know. A man does this

1:30:471:30:51

and a woman does that... Actually,

they don't any more.

Not

1:30:511:30:56

necessarily. Siobhan, let's talk

about the winners. The Golden Globes

1:30:561:31:00

are seen as a pointed at the Oscars,

which are coming in March. What

1:31:001:31:04

would you take out from those who

won last night.

Assertion Ronin

1:31:041:31:11

films, that seems to be in line for

Oscar notice. I wouldn't notice that

1:31:111:31:21

there is an issue... This is the

start of a conversation, you know.

1:31:211:31:28

You notice that the directors

category this year had no women at

1:31:281:31:32

all, that was something that was

noticed by Natalie Portman, she was

1:31:321:31:37

introducing the all-male nominees,

this was the year where we had Patty

1:31:371:31:40

Jenkins directing wonder woman, and

the director of the award-winning

1:31:401:31:49

film, apparently it didn't merit a

nomination for directing. Still a

1:31:491:31:55

long way to go.

Sundre, what did you

think of the host, Seth Meyers? Did

1:31:551:31:59

he get it right with law entirely

the wrong choice. Surely on a night

1:31:591:32:04

of female empowerment you should

have a female host. Another way that

1:32:041:32:08

women are underrepresented in

Hollywood is there is so few of them

1:32:081:32:11

presenting award shows. It seems

very strange to me.

This was

1:32:111:32:16

obviously a difficult gig. Myers,

and to his credit he did acknowledge

1:32:161:32:19

their maybe should have been a

female host. I give him credit not

1:32:191:32:23

running away from the element in the

room but running straight towards it

1:32:231:32:27

-- the elephant in the room. He

opened with jokes about Harvey

1:32:271:32:31

Weinstein and Kevin Spacey. Yes,

heeded, you know, an incredible job.

1:32:311:32:36

But I think the organisers really

should have gone for a female host.

1:32:361:32:40

A note to the Oscars, the Grammys,

the Emmys, let's have more women on

1:32:401:32:45

stage at award shows presenting as

well as receiving.

Thank you all

1:32:451:32:48

very much.

1:32:481:32:50

Time for the latest news.

1:32:551:32:56

Here's Annita.

1:32:561:32:58

The headlines...

1:32:581:33:00

Theresa May is expected to make

several changes to her Cabinet team

1:33:001:33:03

today in the most extensive

reshuffle since she

1:33:031:33:05

became Prime Minister.

1:33:051:33:06

These will include naming

a replacement for Damian Green,

1:33:061:33:08

who was in effect Deputy Prime

Minister before he was dismissed

1:33:081:33:11

for breaching the ministerial code.

1:33:111:33:12

Changes to senior ministerial

positions are expected

1:33:121:33:14

to be announced first.

1:33:141:33:15

Appointments to more junior roles

will follow tomorrow.

1:33:151:33:19

Many of Hollywood's biggests stars

have used the Golden Globe Awards

1:33:191:33:22

in Beverley Hills to show

their support for campaigns

1:33:221:33:24

against sexual harassment

inside the entertainment industry

1:33:241:33:26

and beyond.

During a politically-charged

1:33:261:33:30

evening, almost all those attending

chose to wear black,

1:33:301:33:33

and several celebrities brought

activists on gender and racial

1:33:331:33:36

equality as their guests.

1:33:361:33:39

Oprah Winfrey used her acceptance

speech for an Outstanding

1:33:391:33:42

Contribution Award to speak out

against intolerance and abuse.

1:33:421:33:48

Three women have accused

the Australian actor Craig McLachlan

1:33:481:33:50

of indecent assault during a tour

of the musical

1:33:501:33:53

The Rocky Horror Show.

1:33:531:33:57

The 52-year-old, best known

for his roles playing a heart-throb

1:33:571:33:59

in the long-running TV soap operas

Neighbours and Home and Away,

1:33:591:34:02

says the allegations

are "baseless and vicious".

1:34:021:34:04

The women say they raised

complaints with the theatre

1:34:041:34:07

company at the time,

but no action was taken.

1:34:071:34:11

The BBC's China Editor,

Carrie Gracie, has stepped down

1:34:111:34:14

in protest at what she called

an "indefensible pay gap between men

1:34:141:34:17

and women" at the Corporation.

1:34:171:34:20

In an open letter addressed

to licence-fee payers,

1:34:201:34:22

she accused the BBC of "breaking

equality law" because of

1:34:221:34:27

the discrepancy between her pay

and that of her fellow international

1:34:271:34:29

editors who are men.

1:34:291:34:30

A BBC spokesman said fairness

in pay was "vital".

1:34:301:34:40

That's a summary of

the latest BBC News.

1:34:411:34:44

Let's get some sport with Jessica.

1:34:441:34:46

Good morning, Victoria.

1:34:461:34:47

It's all over for England

in the Ashers, they

1:34:471:34:49

have ended their poor series

against Australia with defeat

1:34:491:34:51

in the fifth and final

Test in Sydney.

1:34:511:34:53

Captain Joe Root was

in hospital with a

1:34:531:34:55

tummy bug.

1:34:551:34:56

He was able to resume his innings

but he had to retire on 58

1:34:561:35:00

with illness.

1:35:001:35:00

England were all out for 180, losing

the match by an innings and 123

1:35:001:35:03

runs, losing the series 4-0. FA Cup

holders Arsenal are not doubt by

1:35:031:35:08

Championship side Nottingham Forest,

a much changed Arsenal team will not

1:35:081:35:11

be in the fourth round for this

first time in 22 years lost 4-0.

1:35:111:35:19

Video assisted refereeing technology

will make its debut in a competitive

1:35:191:35:22

club match in England might, it will

be used for match changing

1:35:221:35:26

situations in the third round tie

between Brighton and Crystal Palace.

1:35:261:35:29

Kyle Edmund pulls out of the

Auckland open because of an ankle

1:35:291:35:33

strain. He hurt his right ankle in

the previous match and will have the

1:35:331:35:38

injury assessed ahead of the

all-important Australian Open, which

1:35:381:35:41

starts next week.

Thank you.

1:35:411:35:46

The BBC's China Editor,

Carrie Gracie, has said the scale

1:35:461:35:48

of support for her stepping down

from the post shows there is

1:35:481:35:51

a "depth and hunger for equal pay".

1:35:511:35:53

In an open letter to licence-fee

payers, Ms Gracie, who has been

1:35:531:35:56

at the BBC for more than 30 years,

accused the corporation

1:35:561:35:58

of having a "secretive

and illegal pay culture".

1:35:581:36:00

She says that she doesn't want a pay

rise, but does want to be paid

1:36:001:36:07

the same as other international

editors who are men.

1:36:071:36:09

A hashtag, #IStandWithCarrie,

is now trending on social media.

1:36:091:36:11

A BBC spokesman has said

fairness in pay is "vital".

1:36:111:36:14

Carrie Gracie has been

presenting BBC Radio 4's Today

1:36:141:36:16

programme this morning,

and this is what she had to say

1:36:161:36:18

about the reaction on social media.

1:36:181:36:20

It's been very moving, actually.

1:36:201:36:22

And there are two things that have

struck me most about it,

1:36:221:36:25

and moved me most...

1:36:251:36:27

And one is, I think,

the scale of feeling,

1:36:271:36:31

not just among BBC women,

but also just more widely

1:36:311:36:35

across the country,

and also internationally.

1:36:351:36:40

The support that I've had

in the last few hours over this,

1:36:401:36:43

I think it does speak to the depth

of hunger for an equal,

1:36:431:36:46

fair and transparent pay system.

1:36:461:36:50

And the other thing I'd like to say

is that what is lovely

1:36:501:36:53

for me is that people

are mentioning my China work.

1:36:531:36:56

Because I would not wish to be

remembered forever as the person,

1:36:561:36:59

the woman who complained

about money, you know?

1:36:591:37:01

I want to be remembered

as the person who did

1:37:011:37:05

some fine China work.

1:37:051:37:08

With me is our Arts

Correspondent, David Sillito.

1:37:081:37:14

In the interests of transparency, I

am a member of the BC Women and

1:37:141:37:19

signed the letter of support for

Carrie Gracie. What is the context

1:37:191:37:23

for this today?

It was that the BBC

announcement of top pay. It

1:37:231:37:29

revealed, well, if you look at the

top paid people on air, they were

1:37:291:37:33

all men. Two thirds of the best paid

were men. And this revealed what

1:37:331:37:40

this is all about, which is the fact

that people don't know what people

1:37:401:37:43

are being paid at the BBC at the top

level. And Carrie Gracie, she found

1:37:431:37:49

out that the other two International

editors were being paid 50% more

1:37:491:37:53

than her, and they were men. She has

gone through a long process, and she

1:37:531:37:58

said she was actually offered a pay

rise but said what she wanted was

1:37:581:38:03

equality, and she said that enough

is enough. She has gone through what

1:38:031:38:06

she says is a by xanthine procedure

of events and she can't go on with

1:38:061:38:11

this any longer -- it buys in time

procedure. She wants to return to a

1:38:111:38:17

job paid the same as everybody else.

If you want to draw out of this some

1:38:171:38:21

wider things, this is not just about

the BBC, there are two issues here.

1:38:211:38:25

One is, if you are going to have

equality, if you are going to have

1:38:251:38:30

fair pay,...

Equal pay, not fare

paid.

You need to know what other

1:38:301:38:36

people are paid and what the rate

for the job is, and that has to be

1:38:361:38:40

public. That is what the issue here

is. People haven't known what other

1:38:401:38:44

people are being paid and they

haven't known what the rate for the

1:38:441:38:47

job is, that is what this whole

argument is about, this goes across

1:38:471:38:53

companies across Britain, they are

all reducing their gender pay gap to

1:38:531:38:56

the moment. The BBC said it is not

the worst offender, 9% is its pay

1:38:561:39:01

gap, and it will be revealing its

pay review in the near future. So we

1:39:011:39:05

will find out it sacked what the

level of differences between men and

1:39:051:39:09

women at the top of the organisation

so we will find out exactly.

David

1:39:091:39:13

Sillito, thank you. A new study

suggests that women are twice as

1:39:131:39:17

likely to die after a heart attack

because they are not given the same

1:39:171:39:23

treatment as men. Researchers looked

at patients in Sweden over a 10-year

1:39:231:39:27

period, and found that women were

often not given all of the

1:39:271:39:31

recommended treatments, but where

women were given the right medical

1:39:311:39:34

help, the survival rates rose to a

similar level as men. Whilst the

1:39:341:39:39

study... It is thought there is a

similar picture across Europe. In

1:39:391:39:43

the UK every year, more women die

from heart disease than breast

1:39:431:39:46

cancer.

1:39:461:39:48

Let's talk to Jeremy Pearson

from the British Heart Foundation,

1:39:491:39:52

who funded this research.

1:39:521:39:53

And Victoria Warnes-Elgie

and Philippa Hicken -

1:39:531:39:55

two women that had heart attacks

whilst in their 30s.

1:39:551:40:03

Thank you very much for coming on

the programme. Philip, I want to ask

1:40:031:40:07

you about your heart attack. --

Philip.

1:40:071:40:09

You were 39 when you

had your heart attack.

1:40:091:40:11

How did it happen?

1:40:111:40:13

It was ten days after I'd given

birth to my second trial. I'd been

1:40:131:40:16

feeling unwell for a few days.

Visited the GP and advised I was

1:40:161:40:21

probably had a virus and was sent

home. And on the day in question, I

1:40:211:40:25

was driving home with my daughter in

the car. And I knew that something

1:40:251:40:30

wasn't right. I haven't thought for

a minute I was having a heart

1:40:301:40:33

attack, but I knew that I wasn't

well. And I should have actually

1:40:331:40:38

taken a left turn to go home but I

knew that I couldn't turn the wheel

1:40:381:40:41

on the car. So I carried on. Going

the long way round. And that took me

1:40:411:40:47

past my doctors surgery. And I

pulled into the surgery, went

1:40:471:40:51

straight in and said, something's

not right. And collapsed there and

1:40:511:40:55

had my heart attack in the surgery.

And luckily, because of where I was,

1:40:551:41:00

they were able to do CPR, use a

different related, and got me back.

1:41:001:41:05

Wow. How I do now?

At five years on,

good. It's taken a long time -- how

1:41:051:41:11

are you now. Physically, my heart is

incredibly lucky. It is OK. I have

1:41:111:41:19

an internal different related fitted

because they didn't know at the time

1:41:191:41:24

what had caused the heart attack and

they couldn't say it would not

1:41:241:41:27

happen again. But, touch wood, it

hasn't happened again. But we do

1:41:271:41:32

live daily with the fact that it

could happen again.

Victoria, hello,

1:41:321:41:37

thank you for coming on the

programme. Did you recognise you

1:41:371:41:41

were having a heart attack was but

mine was a bit different, wine with

1:41:411:41:45

a slow attack. I had chest pains

after I had my baby, ten weeks, I

1:41:451:41:53

went straight to A&E but nothing was

found to be wrong with me, I drove

1:41:531:41:57

myself back home. What did it feel

like, can you describe it?

It was

1:41:571:42:00

just painful exertional chest pain,

really, quite basic, going up and

1:42:001:42:06

down the stairs. Pushing a

pushchair, really quite basic. But I

1:42:061:42:10

knew that it wasn't right for me and

that was actually what saved me, I

1:42:101:42:13

pushed for a referral. The next day.

Then I had surgery very quickly

1:42:131:42:17

after that, I was very lucky indeed.

The treatment that you received, was

1:42:171:42:22

at the right treatment for you and

where you happy with it?

It was the

1:42:221:42:26

right treatment for me. It was very

quick. The only thing that I would

1:42:261:42:30

say is that following the initial

surgery, the rehab isn't suitable at

1:42:301:42:34

all for women. Of our age. We both

agree with that.

Because everybody

1:42:341:42:39

is much older.

Much older. I walked

in to a room full of 50 plus men and

1:42:391:42:45

they thought that I was there to

take the class.

How old were you?

I

1:42:451:42:48

was 35. It wasn't suitable at all.

That is key in getting people back

1:42:481:42:54

to their normal health. And mentally

having that kind of power, clarity

1:42:541:42:56

of mind to move forward with your

life.

How typical are these women's

1:42:561:43:04

experiences has grown fairly

difficult, they are slightly

1:43:041:43:06

different from most cases because we

haven't talked about it don't read

1:43:061:43:09

that they have a specific form of

Corona read

article disease. What

1:43:091:43:15

they described about how they

themselves didn't recognise it was a

1:43:151:43:21

heart attack and the health

professionals didn't either, that is

1:43:211:43:25

still unfortunately more often the

case than not, it's something we

1:43:251:43:28

need to improve.

Why women not given

the same treatment as men?

I think

1:43:281:43:32

it's part of the same package, even

having diagnosed a woman as a heart

1:43:321:43:37

attack, which is harder for various

reasons, for example some of the

1:43:371:43:40

blood tests aren't so sensitive and

don't take up that women have had a

1:43:401:43:44

heart attack were as it will pick

them up in men. And because they are

1:43:441:43:51

younger and they are health

professionals themselves they see,

1:43:511:43:52

well might you know, why should we

treat them as aggressively as some

1:43:521:43:55

older people who have other things

wrong with them's completely the

1:43:551:43:57

wrong answer, but that's the way it

is. This study was in Sweden over

1:43:571:44:01

ten years up to 2013. I think things

have got better since 2013, they are

1:44:011:44:06

going in the right direction, in

this country, as in Sweden, no

1:44:061:44:10

doubt, but we still have quite a

long way to go to get it I think to

1:44:101:44:13

the point where we are going to

treat it exactly the same way as

1:44:131:44:20

men, which is what really needs to

happen.

Is it about educating

1:44:201:44:22

medical professionals?

It's about

educating women themselves that they

1:44:221:44:25

possibly going to have a heart

attack, even at a younger age.

1:44:251:44:28

That's a horrible thing to say, but

you need to be able to recognise

1:44:281:44:31

that. Also the symptoms are not

quite the same and not quite as

1:44:311:44:35

obvious as in men. That's one thing.

Education of the public. The second

1:44:351:44:41

is education of health professionals

to recognise this is a problem.

1:44:411:44:44

Something like two thirds of the

number of women as men have a heart

1:44:441:44:47

attack in the UK. So it's not

uncommon. OK, many of them are

1:44:471:44:51

rolled, but some are younger, as you

can see, so we mustn't miss them.

1:44:511:44:55

What would you say to people

watching now, many of whom are your

1:44:551:45:00

age, women, who think it would be

impossible for them to have a heart

1:45:001:45:04

attack at this kind of age?

It's

not, no, simple as that, it's not.

1:45:041:45:11

My experience from first aid and the

symptoms of a heart attack didn't

1:45:111:45:15

match my symptoms at all. And I

think even now when people are being

1:45:151:45:20

informed about heart attacks, those

symptoms need to be elaborated on.

1:45:201:45:29

For a woman...

Let's talk about

them, it is public service

1:45:291:45:32

information, what kind of symptoms?

Pain across my back, my shoulders,

1:45:321:45:36

my neck...

Why would you think that

would be a heart attack?

I haven't

1:45:361:45:41

got a pain in my left arm or in my

chest. At the point that I had a

1:45:411:45:45

heart attack, my brain wasn't fully

with it, I knew something was wrong

1:45:451:45:50

but my body was doing other things

at the time, trying to get me to the

1:45:501:45:57

right place, really. But certainly

since then, when I read about the

1:45:571:46:01

signs and symptoms of a heart

attack, I think, well, no, it was so

1:46:011:46:06

much more subtle.

Especially

postnatally, the last thing you

1:46:061:46:11

would be thinking about yourself,

you would be thinking about your

1:46:111:46:14

baby, and you absolutely must listen

to your body. If you have in a

1:46:141:46:18

Corrie paint... Mine was literally

like a pulled chest muscle, nothing

1:46:181:46:21

more. If it's not right for you,

then it's not right, you must get it

1:46:211:46:25

checked out.

Symptoms, Jeremy?

In

women it is much more variable, much

1:46:251:46:30

less the classical advertising, the

horrible constricting force across

1:46:301:46:36

the chest and radiating down to the

arms, often on exertion but

1:46:361:46:41

sometimes not on exertion, that is

the classic view of men having a

1:46:411:46:44

heart attack, that is usually

recognised by the man and by the

1:46:441:46:47

doctors. Here it is much more subtle

and variable in presentation,

1:46:471:46:51

therefore it is harder to pick up.

So, just be aware. Thank you very

1:46:511:46:56

much. Jeremy, Victoria and Philip

are, thanks for coming in. at Is

1:46:561:47:08

Moin Younis is an 18-year-old

from Birmingham who won a pride

1:47:081:47:11

of Britain award last November

for working with his local hospice

1:47:111:47:14

as an ambassador to support children

with life limiting conditions.

1:47:141:47:16

He does this inspirational

work despite having

1:47:161:47:21

a rare skin disorder and that

causes his skin to tear

1:47:211:47:24

and blister at the slightest touch.

1:47:241:47:26

The NHS estimates that 5,000

people have it in the UK.

1:47:261:47:28

Moin's form of the condition

is so severe that doctors

1:47:281:47:31

said he wouldn't make it

past his first birthday.

1:47:311:47:35

Every morning he goes

through an excruciating skin care

1:47:351:47:37

routine that can last up

to six hours.

1:47:371:47:39

To give us a rare insight

into Moin's treatment,

1:47:391:47:43

our reporter Ashley John-Baptiste

went to meet him.

1:47:431:47:46

His film report contains sensitive

images that might be upsetting.

1:47:461:47:56

Hello, Moin, how are you doing?

1:47:571:47:59

I'm OK, thanks.

1:47:591:48:09

He has a rare skin disorder known

as epidermolysis bullosa,

1:48:121:48:15

that causes his skin to tear

and blister at the slightest touch.

1:48:151:48:18

The NHS estimates that 5000

people have it in the UK.

1:48:181:48:21

Every morning, Moin's mum Shafia

helps him to remove bandages before

1:48:211:48:24

applying a fresh set.

1:48:241:48:28

How long is the whole process?

1:48:281:48:30

Six hours every day.

1:48:301:48:32

Six hours every day,

seven days a week.

1:48:321:48:34

I've been doing it for 18 years.

1:48:341:48:35

I get tired.

1:48:351:48:40

As he grows, his condition gets

worse as his skin stretches.

1:48:401:48:49

Moin's health care is commissioned

by his local NHS Trust,

1:48:541:48:56

Sandwell and West Birmingham,

under their continuing

1:48:561:48:58

health care package.

1:48:581:48:59

Although they say that Moin

is entitled to carers on a daily

1:48:591:49:02

basis to help with his skincare,

Shafia says she only get

1:49:021:49:05

a carer sporadically,

and often has to carry out

1:49:051:49:07

the treatment by herself.

1:49:071:49:10

I don't feel like I'm his mother,

I feel like I'm his carer.

1:49:101:49:20

If I have a breakdown,

if my back goes, who's

1:49:221:49:24

going to look after him?

1:49:241:49:26

And I know nobody's

going to look after him.

1:49:261:49:28

Because nobody doesn't,

actually, the truth is.

1:49:281:49:29

It's only me who looks

after him, and his dad.

1:49:291:49:32

His dad's got to work.

1:49:321:49:33

You've got to survive as well.

1:49:331:49:34

My mum used to be

a fit, healthy woman.

1:49:341:49:37

She used to work, she

used to love her job,

1:49:371:49:39

she was going to become a nurse,

she did everything.

1:49:391:49:41

Then I was born, so I haven't just

ruined my life, I've ruined hers.

1:49:411:49:45

You haven't ruined her life.

1:49:451:49:46

Whilst there is still no cure

for epidermolysis bullosa,

1:49:461:49:48

a young boy in Germany who had

a severe form of the condition

1:49:481:49:51

was recently given new skin

through a pioneering genetic

1:49:511:49:53

skin modification treatment.

1:49:531:49:55

It's still undergoing

formal clinical trials,

1:49:551:49:56

but Moin anticipates it's something

he could benefit from in the future.

1:49:561:50:04

It's looking good, we've been

to the hospital and the professor

1:50:041:50:07

who did this treatment,

he's interested, and

1:50:071:50:08

he does know about me.

1:50:081:50:10

But, for now, it's just hope.

1:50:101:50:20

Angus Crawford is here.

Sorry, I do apologise. We are going

1:50:211:50:27

to talk about Grenfell Tower in a

moment, but I wanted to read you

1:50:271:50:32

some messages about Moin. Laura

says, "Both Moin and his mum are

1:50:321:50:40

amazing. As a mother 24/7 caring for

my 15-year-old daughter with no help

1:50:401:50:46

I can relate to everything that

Moin's mum said." Sarah Brown says,

1:50:461:50:52

"I wish a treatment comes quickly. I

thank Moin for highlighting this

1:50:521:50:58

issue, I wish you all the best."

Another viewer says, "Life limiting

1:50:581:51:04

for their family. Hopefully over

time he will see medical

1:51:041:51:08

breakthroughs and amazing people. I

wish you luck." Thank you for those.

1:51:081:51:15

The inquiry into the fatal blaze

at Grenfell Tower last month has

1:51:151:51:18

faced a number of criticisms

since it was formed

1:51:181:51:20

in August last year.

1:51:201:51:21

Now accountancy firm KPMG

has quit its advisor

1:51:211:51:23

role to the inquiry

after campaigners said it had

1:51:231:51:25

a conflict of interest.

1:51:251:51:29

Our correspondent Angus Crawford

is here to tell us more.

1:51:291:51:34

Fill us in on the background here.

This is an acutely sensitive area.

1:51:341:51:39

We all know since the fire on 14th

June last year there has been great

1:51:391:51:44

anger and great frustration on

behalf of those most affected and

1:51:441:51:47

huge scepticism about the behaviour

of the authorities from the local

1:51:471:51:51

council to central government and

anyone in between and there is great

1:51:511:51:55

concern amongst those who lost loved

ones and have been forced out of

1:51:551:52:00

their homes and are hopeless now. So

what we found out was that the

1:52:001:52:04

Grenfell inquiry due to start taking

evidence probably at Easter this

1:52:041:52:09

year, possibly an interim report by

the end of the year, lots of concern

1:52:091:52:12

about it, whether it was

representative or not, but also it

1:52:121:52:15

appears that they hired KPMG, one of

the biggest auditing firms in the

1:52:151:52:20

country to carry out some, if you

like back office functions. What

1:52:201:52:25

they didn't possibly realise when

they did that was that KPMG audit

1:52:251:52:31

three crucial players in the

Grenfell disaster, that's the Royal

1:52:311:52:35

Borough of Kensington and Chelsea

and two firms closed linked with the

1:52:351:52:40

refurbishment of Grenfell Tower with

the panels which we know were highly

1:52:401:52:44

significant in how the blaze spread

so catastrophically on that night.

1:52:441:52:48

OK. And they are no longer involved

which will please various

1:52:481:52:56

campaigners and critics. Where are

we in terms of the inquiry now?

1:52:561:53:01

What's really interesting about how

they were removed or removed

1:53:011:53:04

themselves is this conflict of

interest wasn't raised by relatives

1:53:041:53:09

of the dead, those bereaved, it was

raised by politician, academics and

1:53:091:53:14

even the singer Lily Allen who said

look, this cannot happen. We need to

1:53:141:53:20

have a clear sight with this inquiry

that it has no conflicts of

1:53:201:53:23

interest. So they sent an open

letter to Theresa May saying this

1:53:231:53:27

cannot stand. This is an obvious

perception issue, even if there is

1:53:271:53:33

no conflict of interest, it looks

like there is. Yesterday, KPMG

1:53:331:53:38

withdrew from the inquiry saying

nothing should distract from the

1:53:381:53:42

important work being done. The

inquiry itself, also said the

1:53:421:53:45

company had no role within the

inquiries investigation and said the

1:53:451:53:51

confidence of all core participants

is integral. That's one issue

1:53:511:53:54

solved. There is still, the other

issue to be resolved, which is that

1:53:541:53:58

some of those involved, the core

participants believe the panel, the

1:53:581:54:02

judge himself who is leading it, is

not representative of the community

1:54:021:54:06

and they are still calling for a

wider panel to sit with him to be

1:54:061:54:10

more representative of the people

who lived in Grenfell.

Thank you

1:54:101:54:14

very much, Angus, thank you.

Let's talk to Jonathan Bartley. He

1:54:141:54:23

signed the open letter calling for

KPMG's removal from the inquiry and

1:54:231:54:26

you must be pleased with the news

this morning?

Yes, I think it was

1:54:261:54:30

the right thing to do, but there are

big questions that remain

1:54:301:54:33

unanswered. There were three

conflicts of interest that Angus

1:54:331:54:39

raised, the one with Kensington and

Chelsea, the one with the company

1:54:391:54:46

responsible for the refurbishment,

but the one that wasn't declared by

1:54:461:54:50

KPMG was the one about the cladding,

why did the Cabinet Office appoint

1:54:501:54:59

KPMG in aproject management and in

an advisory role and why was the

1:54:591:55:03

their one around the company that

produced the cladding and their

1:55:031:55:07

involvement with them, why was that

not declared?

Does that matter now

1:55:071:55:10

that they have stepped aside?

It

matters because it's about the

1:55:101:55:13

confidence and let's not forget what

this is about. This is an inquiry

1:55:131:55:21

that should be representing the

victims' families and the community

1:55:211:55:24

at Grenfell, the survivors and their

needs and the questions that they

1:55:241:55:27

want answered and let's cast our

minds back to what happened before

1:55:271:55:31

the fire. The community raised

questions about the safety and what

1:55:311:55:36

was going on. It didn't have

confidence in the system even before

1:55:361:55:40

the fire. Now, this inquiry must

have the confidence of those people

1:55:401:55:45

and so it does shake the confidence

and it does matter. Angus mentioned

1:55:451:55:51

the panel-led inquiry. On 21st

December the Prime Minister, some

1:55:511:55:54

victims would say and their families

will I would cynically announced

1:55:541:56:00

before Christmas that there wouldn't

be a panel inquiry, not giving a

1:56:001:56:05

chance for judicial inquiry. We need

that panel-led inquiry so there is a

1:56:051:56:09

real stake by the community in this

process.

From those that you talked

1:56:091:56:13

to around Grenfell from the

community, where are they in terms

1:56:131:56:18

of trusting in the inquiry?

Well, I

think, clearly, you know, I'm

1:56:181:56:23

reading the same statements as

everyone else is reading. Some

1:56:231:56:26

constant appeals. There is their

petition that was up to 24,000

1:56:261:56:31

signatures just before Christmas

saying we need the panel-led

1:56:311:56:34

inquiry. There is a big, big issue

around confidence and trust that is

1:56:341:56:38

ongoing. There is a two stage

inquiry and from what I understand

1:56:381:56:44

from the community, they are

encouraged that interests a small

1:56:441:56:46

glimmer of hope in what Theresa May

said on 21st in her statement was

1:56:461:56:53

she wasn't ruling out stage two of

the inquiry, but there is a blow

1:56:531:56:58

that there won't be a panel on stage

one. That will knock the confidence

1:56:581:57:02

and the revelations about KPMG will

further damage that confidence too.

1:57:021:57:05

Thank you very much. Thank you

Jonathan Bartley, from the Green

1:57:051:57:11

Party, co-leader. Some comments

about John Worboys, we are expecting

1:57:111:57:21

the Justice Secretary to make a

statement. Christine says, "The law

1:57:211:57:25

is an ass. John Worboys served six

months for each of the victims he

1:57:251:57:33

traumatised and hurt. This parole

decision to release him should be

1:57:331:57:36

restracted and he should serve

longer." This viewer, who doesn't

1:57:361:57:40

leave their name, says, "As a woman

who has had mental health

1:57:401:57:43

difficulties, after a sexual assault

in the workplace, I'm sickened by

1:57:431:57:48

the release of the taxi driver."

William Goldsmith says, "I am an

1:57:481:58:01

ex-magistrate and I cannot

understand why this man got away

1:58:011:58:05

with his sordid activities. I can't

believe the local authority

1:58:051:58:08

responsible for this licensing

wouldn't be aware of his disgraceful

1:58:081:58:12

offences." Thank you very much for

those. Thank you for getting in

1:58:121:58:16

touch today.

1:58:161:58:18

BBC Newsroom Live is coming up next.

1:58:181:58:20

Thank you for your company today.

1:58:201:58:24

We're back tomorrow at 9am. Have a

good day.
