:01:29. > :01:32.The economy may be recovering, but two bits of news today showed that
:01:33. > :01:38.Figures for house prices showed they were still going up rapidly,
:01:39. > :01:41.particularly in London and the South East, confirming fears

:01:46. > :01:49.And today's small increase in inflation, the first
:01:50. > :01:52.in ten months, showed the squeeze on incomes is far from over.
:01:53. > :01:58.Here's our economics correspondent, Simon Jack.
:01:59. > :02:05.The price of goods and services rose at an annual rate of 1.8% in April,
:02:06. > :02:11.a slight rise on last month and ahead of annual wage increases which
:02:12. > :02:15.are running at 1.7%. The timing of Easter helped push the price of some
:02:16. > :02:18.things, like air fares and holidays, up that little bit more.
:02:19. > :02:22.But the picture remains the same, wages are still struggling to keep
:02:23. > :02:26.pace with prices, especially if you take out the value of bonuses, which
:02:27. > :02:29.few people get, what most of us take home in our wallets is still buying
:02:30. > :02:34.a little bit less. That certainly rings true for this family having a
:02:35. > :02:39.birthday lunch in Surrey. I am aware that the pension doesn't quite spend
:02:40. > :02:44.as much, because the basics, heating and this sort of thing, they are
:02:45. > :02:50.going up. The main things I notice our day-to-day items, shopping,
:02:51. > :02:55.petrol. Although pay rises are small, there are signs we feel more
:02:56. > :02:59.confident spending what we do in, according to Natasha, who has worked
:03:00. > :03:02.in this pub for several years. Compare to the last few years,
:03:03. > :03:05.customers have maybe been a little bit better. But I think it's a long
:03:06. > :03:09.way to go to catch up from what happened a few years ago. I think we
:03:10. > :03:14.have a bit of a climb to get back up to feeling well off again. But
:03:15. > :03:18.customers have been tipping slightly better. Nowhere is the confidence
:03:19. > :03:25.more evident than in the housing market, particularly in Sunderland
:03:26. > :03:30.and -- London and south-east. There are calls for action to prevent
:03:31. > :03:33.overheating. A number of things can be done. The Government could modify
:03:34. > :03:38.the help to buy scheme. That is allowing people relatively low
:03:39. > :03:42.incomes to borrow more. The other thing that the Bank of England could
:03:43. > :03:48.do is put pressure on the High Street banks to lend less to people
:03:49. > :03:52.that are a bit more financially vulnerable. Although up over the
:03:53. > :03:56.year, prices actually fell in March for the first time in 12 months,
:03:57. > :03:59.signs perhaps that new stricter rules on mortgage lending are
:04:00. > :04:02.beginning to have an effect. It may be too early to tell if it is
:04:03. > :04:07.slowing down or just pausing for breath.
:04:08. > :04:11.Norman Smith is in Westminster. There are concerns about the housing
:04:12. > :04:16.market, I suppose the question is what the Government will do about
:04:17. > :04:20.it? That is the big question, house prices are politically critical. How
:04:21. > :04:23.many times have we been here before, one a recovering economy has been
:04:24. > :04:29.derailed when the housing bubble bursts? This time, a slightly
:04:30. > :04:33.different situation, insofar as responsibility of what to do is
:04:34. > :04:37.being passed off to the Governor of the Bank of England. It's an extent
:04:38. > :04:42.it seems something of a hospital pass. He cannot magic up new homes,
:04:43. > :04:45.is constrained on interest rates because of the impact on the
:04:46. > :04:50.economy. He can tinker with help to buy, but it is only a small part of
:04:51. > :04:54.the market. When you talk to ministers, they seem to be of the
:04:55. > :04:58.view that it is not a UK problem, it is a London problem. They point out
:04:59. > :05:04.that outside of London, house prices only went up by 4%. They are still
:05:05. > :05:08.15% below their pre-crash peak. If the governor agrees, it may be that
:05:09. > :05:11.when he comes forward with recommendations next month, these
:05:12. > :05:14.may be measures not to dampen down the housing market in the UK, but to
:05:15. > :05:17.dampen down the housing market in London.
:05:18. > :05:21.And if you want to know where you can afford to live you can use the
:05:22. > :05:27.BBC's house calculator on the website at bbc.co.uk/news.
:05:28. > :05:29.More than 150,000 people have now signed an online petition urging

:06:01. > :06:07.Well, Simon, the numbers of people signing the petition you spoke of
:06:08. > :06:12.our going up and up. A short time ago it was, as you said, more than
:06:13. > :06:19.150,000. It is not just people in the yachting world, it is a wider
:06:20. > :06:23.world that has been caught up in the story. What we are told by everyone
:06:24. > :06:26.we speak to us that they are not questioning the professionalism of
:06:27. > :06:32.the US Coast Guard, they are saying this is a basic human plea, please,
:06:33. > :06:37.please, stop this search again. -- start.
:06:38. > :06:40.These are the dramatic new pictures from the Atlantic on the same day
:06:41. > :06:44.the Cheeki Rafiki went missing. But this is not the British yacht, it is
:06:45. > :06:49.a French one in trouble, in roughly the same area, south of Cape Cod.
:06:50. > :06:55.The American Coast Guard says by the time the Cheeki Rafiki sent out the
:06:56. > :07:00.distress call, the wind was stronger and the seas were higher. Four
:07:01. > :07:05.British men, Andrew Bridge, James Male, Paul Goslin and Steve Warren,
:07:06. > :07:09.used electronic beacons to raise the alarm. That did lead to a Coast
:07:10. > :07:15.Guard search for the vessel lasting 50 hours. It was called off on
:07:16. > :07:19.Sunday. The Foreign Office today said the US Coast Guard had assured
:07:20. > :07:25.us that they did everything they could and they would have done
:07:26. > :07:29.exactly the same for US citizens. 150,000 people, the support has got
:07:30. > :07:33.quite big. Vast numbers of people in the yachting world disagree. Clubs
:07:34. > :07:38.like this one in Southampton have been leading a massive online
:07:39. > :07:42.campaign to push for a new search. We are such a sailing nation that
:07:43. > :07:43.everybody knows somebody who is a sailor.
:07:44. > :07:46.everybody knows somebody who is a agree with what the sailors think
:07:47. > :07:53.and they want more people out there searching. Extraordinary rescues at
:07:54. > :07:57.sea are possible. 27 years ago, Tony Bullimore survived five days
:07:58. > :08:00.clinging to his upturned yacht in the treacherous Southern Ocean. He
:08:01. > :08:06.says the Americans should rethink their decision. The crew are all
:08:07. > :08:10.pretty fit, experienced guys. They have the right equipment, a good
:08:11. > :08:13.life raft, life jackets and the other equipment that goes with them.
:08:14. > :08:19.They could well and truly be out there waiting for somebody to rescue
:08:20. > :08:23.them. It is a view shared by Susan, who took part in the same race that
:08:24. > :08:28.the missing men had been in. Since Sunday, nobody has been looking for
:08:29. > :08:35.them. That is the frustration. Every hour that passes, we are wasting
:08:36. > :08:39.time. The US Coast Guard has rescued people for more than 200 years. It
:08:40. > :08:41.knows its business. With these men unaccounted for, it is facing police
:08:42. > :08:50.to search again. The reality is that it has been five
:08:51. > :08:54.days since these men were last heard of. Unless there is an organised
:08:55. > :08:56.search, the chances of another passing ship coming along and
:08:57. > :09:00.finding anything are getting more and more remove, which is why we are
:09:01. > :09:04.here this lunchtime that some members of the families of the men
:09:05. > :09:08.wanted the Prime Minister, David Cameron, to get involved. The truth
:09:09. > :09:09.is, the window of hope and the of opportunity is narrowing with every
:09:10. > :09:12.hour. The trial of Rolf Harris has been
:09:13. > :09:15.hearing from the fourth and final alleged victim, who has

:09:19. > :09:20.the court how he allegedly assaulted The former entertainer is charged
:09:21. > :09:26.with 12 counts of indecent assault, Sangita Myska is
:09:27. > :09:40.at Southwark crown court. What has the court been hearing this
:09:41. > :09:44.morning? That's right, as you say, we have been hearing from Tonya Lee,
:09:45. > :09:49.Rolf Harris's for alleged victim. She is now 43. We can name her
:09:50. > :09:53.because she has waived her right to anonymity, because she has given a
:09:54. > :09:57.series of paid interviews about her story in Australia. She told the
:09:58. > :10:01.court that in 1986 she was 15 years old. She flew to London from Sydney
:10:02. > :10:05.with an Australian theatre group. Altogether there were 14 or 15
:10:06. > :10:11.people, including three adults. She says when they arrived at Heathrow
:10:12. > :10:15.Airport, she was met, along with the others, by Rolf Harris because he
:10:16. > :10:19.was a friend of the director. She said that they went to dinner at a
:10:20. > :10:23.London pub, busy with other people. She said it was a happy atmosphere
:10:24. > :10:27.and they had been singing and making jokes. She said, one point, Rolf
:10:28. > :10:31.Harris beckoned her over to sit on his knee and she didn't think
:10:32. > :10:36.anything of it because he was such a well-known face on television, both
:10:37. > :10:40.here and in Australia. She went on to say it was then that he carried
:10:41. > :10:44.out his first alleged indecent assault by putting his hand up her
:10:45. > :10:47.skirt. She said she was frightened and went to the toilet to get away,
:10:48. > :10:52.but when she came out Rolf Harris was standing outside. She said he
:10:53. > :10:55.then gave her a bear hug. During that time, he indecently assaulted
:10:56. > :11:01.her one more time by putting his hand down her blouse. She said she
:11:02. > :11:06.was very frightened and confused but did not tell anyone because she felt
:11:07. > :11:07.she would not be believed. The case continues. Rolf Harris denies all of
:11:08. > :11:10.the charges against him. Marks and Spencer's annual profits

:11:46. > :11:49.fashion. I think that they have not moved as far as it needs to move. It
:11:50. > :11:53.hasn't met its key targets in profits or sales. It is actually, if

:13:58. > :14:04.After seven months of demonstrations on the streets of the capital, the
:14:05. > :14:09.Army decided it had seen enough. In the early hours of this morning,
:14:10. > :14:20.troops moved in, blocking Bangkok streets, surrounding protest sites
:14:21. > :14:22.and occupying television stations. The army commander, General Prayuth,

:14:42. > :14:45.the Army's hand. But as the protests have dragged on, they have become
:14:46. > :14:49.ever more violent and unpredictable. This week, the leader
:14:50. > :14:54.of the anti-government movement called for a final battle in what
:14:55. > :14:58.has become an increasingly desperate attempt to seize power. Many of his

:15:04. > :15:09.having been hopelessly corrupted by the former feminist, Thaksin
:15:10. > :15:16.Shinawatra. Two weeks ago, the court forced his sister to step down. But

:15:25. > :15:28.the Army's move. For now, there is an almost eerie calm here. Many
:15:29. > :15:32.soldiers have returned to barracks. On the surface at least, this is a
:15:33. > :15:42.very discreet form of martial law. Having decided to step in, the onus

:20:25. > :20:29.in the first place, so why wasn't he convicted here? I put exactly that
:20:30. > :20:32.question today to the Crown Prosecution Service because the main
:20:33. > :20:36.thing he was convicted for in the States in this court was his role in
:20:37. > :20:41.the kidnapping of 16 western tourists by a very ruthless armed
:20:42. > :20:46.gang back in 1998. As you rightly say, he wasn't convicted of that in
:20:47. > :20:51.the UK, he was convicted of that in the US of incitement to murder. On
:20:52. > :20:56.two separate occasions they say they tried to bring the case against him.
:20:57. > :21:00.They worked with senior prosecutors and officers to bring the case
:21:01. > :21:03.against him and they decided they simply didn't have enough evidence.
:21:04. > :21:06.They say there were things used in the US court against him that would
:21:07. > :21:10.not have been admissible in the UK. They won't say what they were, but
:21:11. > :21:14.one of the things that was instrumental in this was the
:21:15. > :21:19.satellite phone that he supplied to the kidnappers and he spoke to the
:21:20. > :21:25.kidnappers during the ordeal of the 16 western hostages. That's one of
:21:26. > :21:29.the things that appears post appears to have gone for him in this case.
:21:30. > :21:35.New research suggests using electronic cigarettes does help
:21:36. > :21:38.people give up smoking. A study of around 6,000 e-cigarette smokers in
:21:39. > :21:43.England found the success race was around 60% higher than those who
:21:44. > :21:48.used will power alone, nicotine patches or even gum. Here is Branwen
:21:49. > :21:52.jetries. Suddenly you see them everywhere. E-cigarettes are easy to
:21:53. > :21:56.buy over-the-counter, but how good are they at helping you give up?
:21:57. > :22:00.Some health experts say they are helping make cigarettes seem normal.
:22:01. > :22:05.They worry it could encourage smoking to linger as a habit. But
:22:06. > :22:08.this research suggests that right now, they may be making a
:22:09. > :22:11.difference. Smoking rates are coming down, the
:22:12. > :22:14.rates at which people are trying to stop smoking are going up, the rates
:22:15. > :22:19.at which people are succeeding at stopping smoking is going up, the
:22:20. > :22:22.proportion of people using e-cigarettes who've never smoked is
:22:23. > :22:29.extremely low. This research on quitting smoking
:22:30. > :22:33.looked at different methods. More than 5,800 smokers were asked about
:22:34. > :22:39.their experience. It found e-cigarettes were 61% better than
:22:40. > :22:44.will power alone or than buying nicotine patches over-the-counter.
:22:45. > :22:50.NHS Stop Smoking Services which also offers support worked best. What it
:22:51. > :22:54.doesn't tell us is whether e-cids help people stay a non-smoker. We
:22:55. > :22:58.are reasonably confident that in what we know about the rate of
:22:59. > :23:01.relapse when people have stopped for a given length of time that any
:23:02. > :23:05.benefits that we have observed now will probably continue.

:23:21. > :23:24.with the Annual Conference dominated by the row over allegations of
:23:25. > :23:27.bullying. The BBC has been told about new claims that a senior
:23:28. > :23:32.official was bullied at a federation meeting. Let's go to Bournemouth and
:23:33. > :23:35.speak to our Home Affairs correspondent, Matt Prodger.
:23:36. > :23:37.Mat. That's just the latest allegation of
:23:38. > :23:41.bullying within the Police Federation. It's actually been
:23:42. > :23:45.dismissed by the federation itself and indeed the alleged victim of
:23:46. > :23:49.that particular bullying claim, the vice chairman of the organisation,
:23:50. > :23:53.Steve White, has said he's not a bully. But it contributes to the
:23:54. > :23:57.perception of an organisation that's been out of control and
:23:58. > :24:01.unaccountable. Indeed, it was described today as crude and
:24:02. > :24:05.disrespectful, not by an MP, not by a Government, but by one of the men
:24:06. > :24:10.who's hoping to lead this federation at the end of this conference, a man
:24:11. > :24:14.called Will Richards, saying they had been crude and disrespectful,
:24:15. > :24:17.they made enemies in Government when they should have been looking for
:24:18. > :24:22.friends and that they had targeted individuals, a reference there to
:24:23. > :24:26.plebgate back in 2012 when Andrew Mitchell, the Government minister,
:24:27. > :24:29.was forced out of the Government and there was Police Federation
:24:30. > :24:33.involvement there. Now, there's been a couple of reviews since then, both
:24:34. > :24:37.stinging in their criticism of the federation, not just bullying, but
:24:38. > :24:41.scrutiny of its finances and a need for greater accountability. So
:24:42. > :24:47.that's what the delegates here will be voting on over coming days, a
:24:48. > :24:51.wide-ranging reform, most of which will go through, some may not. What
:24:52. > :24:56.we can say is that, after this conference, the Police Federation
:24:57. > :25:01.which represents 125,000 officers in England and Wales, is unlikely to be
:25:02. > :25:04.the same again. Be Thank you. The Premier League's

:28:43. > :28:44.with Phil Avery. Pretty cheery and fair for some
:28:45. > :28:50.parts of the British Isles. There's got to be a but. There is a notion
:28:51. > :28:54.about thunder storms in the afternoon. We have been here, as was
:28:55. > :28:59.coo the case yesterday, the south-west seen much of the action,
:29:00. > :29:03.it's on its way across the Bristol channel now. As you see, as the
:29:04. > :29:08.afternoon progresses, it isn't just going to be there. I suspect we are
:29:09. > :29:11.seeing the first signs of the showers beginning to develop
:29:12. > :29:14.elsewhere. Remember the headline, some could be thundery in nature if
:29:15. > :29:18.circumstances come together. The south-west of England for the most
:29:19. > :29:20.part, you have had your turn, but in this belt away from central and
:29:21. > :29:24.southern parts of Wales, this belt away from central and
:29:25. > :29:27.the Midlands and north of England, parts of East Anglia, here the rain
:29:28. > :29:30.could develop during the course of the afternoon. A lull in proceedings
:29:31. > :29:33.for Northern Ireland after a wet morning, northern England too at
:29:34. > :29:36.this stage fine and dry. Don't discount the possibility where the
:29:37. > :29:41.heat's broken through across the north of Scotland, 22 in one or two
:29:42. > :29:45.spots here, that we may find one or two thunder storms popping off.
:29:46. > :29:50.Before this arc of potential, and I do stress potential, thunder storm
:29:51. > :29:54.activity and heavy downpours works its way across the northern half to
:29:55. > :29:57.reside across the north-west on a night that will be a tad fresher
:29:58. > :30:00.than was the case during the course of last night. Mist and fog around,
:30:01. > :30:05.perhaps across the south-east, maybe Wales and the south-west. Murky
:30:06. > :30:09.across the north-east and the Northern Isles tomorrow. A sandwich,
:30:10. > :30:12.if you like. Rain across the far north-west, a lot of dry weather and
:30:13. > :30:15.rain coming out through East Anglia and the south-east and France. As
:30:16. > :30:20.the heat gets going again, we may pop off some showers across southern
:30:21. > :30:24.England, through the Midlands, one or two spray ones further north. The
:30:25. > :30:26.prospects for Chelsea. I was pessimistic about Tuesday and
:30:27. > :30:30.Wednesday. Wednesday looks half decent. A different beast on
:30:31. > :30:36.Thursday though, and near again, we are looking away towards the south.
:30:37. > :30:39.Warmth and moisture again. The Met Office already have concerns about
:30:40. > :30:42.the intensity of the rainfall.ivity could be, and again it is a bit of a
:30:43. > :30:46.could, across Wales and the south-west, we could see 40mm of
:30:47. > :30:50.rain and then that rain drives towards the central goal finish off
:30:51. > :30:52.the day, something cooler again across the northern parts of
:30:53. > :30:58.Scotland. Come Friday, much of that rain will be confined to the borders
:30:59. > :31:01.area of Scotland, maybe the odd drib and drab in the south-west. A lot of
:31:02. > :31:05.dry weather elsewhere and the temperatures very pleasant indeed,
:31:06. > :31:08.maxing at about 20 or so. Lots going on. Back again tomorrow to bring you
:31:09. > :31:12.the very latest. Thank you very much.
:31:13. > :31:16.Now a reminder of the top story: Inflation has risen for the first
:31:17. > :31:22.time in ten months. House prices were up too in the year to March in
:31:23. > :31:24.London by 17%. That is all from us. Now
