David Cameron backs plans to promote "British values" in schools after | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
concern about Islamist extremism in Birmingham. | :00:07. | :00:10. | |
The Prime Minister says freedom, tolerance, respect for the rule | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
of law and belief in personal and social responsibility are all | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
It will have the overwhelming support of everyone in Britain, | :00:19. | :00:34. | |
including people that have come to settle in Britain and make their | :00:35. | :00:35. | |

investigation is launched after thieves have targeted Oyster | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
machines in London. Good afternoon | :01:31. | :01:45. | |
and welcome to the BBC News at One. David Cameron has welcomed proposals | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
to actively promote British values The plans were unveiled | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
by the Education Secretary, Michael Gove, yesterday, | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
after Ofsted found that some schools in Birmingham had been influenced | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
by hardline Islamic views. The Prime Minister said he | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
believed the proposals would enjoy This morning, four | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
of the schools which were accused of failing to protect pupils from | :02:08. | :02:17. | |
extremist ideas have been told their Our correspondent Alex Forsyth | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
reports. The day after Ofsted's damning | :02:21. | :02:35. | |
report, the community in Birmingham is feeling the impact. Five schools | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
are now in special measures. Ofsted said some governors were imposing | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
their own ethos, and a narrow, faith -based ideology in non-faith | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
schools. One parent outside this school this morning told us his son | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
had raised concerns. Two years ago, he said, we have been segregated, | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
told to sit at the front of the class, and girls were at the back of | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
the class. Boys were told not to play with girls. That should not | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
happen. We live in a mixed society. If I want my girl not to mix with | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
boys, I would have told them to go to a girls school. The school | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
rejects criticism, saying it does not segregated girls and boys, but | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
another parent said it does, and he supports the school is really good, | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
they keep the girls away from the boys, which is natural in our faith. | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
There is nothing wrong with that. Criticism of these schools has | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
undoubtedly divided opinion here. Some parents are clearly concerned, | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
but others vehemently act the schools and what they see as their | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
right to reflect this predominantly Muslim community. The majority in | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
that school if you went to, let's say, a Catholic school, you would | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
have a majority of Catholics. I went to that school, I did well, I got a | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
degree, I got a diploma, I am at work, paying my taxes, that is | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
British, isn't it? The Prime Minister, who is in Sweden, said | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
today he backed the idea of British values being promoted in all | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
schools, and this meant tolerance of all faiths. I would say freedom, | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
tolerance, respect for the rule of law, belief in social responsibility | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
and respect for British institutions. Those are the sorts of | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
things which I would hope would be inculcated into the curriculum in | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
any school in Britain. Back in Birmingham, the Academy trust which | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
runs four of the schools could be taken over. The fallout of this will | :04:39. | :04:39. | |
affect the whole education system. Our chief political correspondent | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
Norman Smith is in Westminster. Is there any sign that the political | :04:43. | :04:56. | |
row over this is dying down? No, another day, another argument | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
involving Michael Gove. You sense he is almost becoming like the Dennis | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
the Menace of British politics, always involved in scraps with | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
colleagues. The other day, it was Nick Clegg, Theresa May, and now a | :05:07. | :05:14. | |
bust up with Sir Michael Wilshaw, the head of Michael said that he had | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
asked to introduce on the spot inspections at schools, which | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
Michael Gove announced yesterday, back in 2012, but Mr Gove had said | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
no. Michael Gove's people this morning have accused the head of | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
Ofsted of not remembering events correctly. More than that, they say | :05:33. | :05:41. | |
Sir Michael actually has the power to introduce them whenever he | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
wants. They say that the Stoughton yesterday was a metaphorical kick up | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
the backside for Ofsted to get on and start introducing some of these | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
things. Why does it matter? Because these are the two figures who are | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
meant to be at the centre of implementing the Government's | :06:03. | :06:03. | |
strategy after tackling extremism in schools, and one day after the | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
strategy is unveiled, they seem to be taking lumps after each other. | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
Maximum fines imposed by magistrates could rise | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
dramatically, with drivers caught speeding on the motorway facing | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
Under new proposals for England and Wales put before Parliament, | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
there would be no limit on the fine for drink-driving. | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
Our legal correspondent Clive Coleman reports. | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
The maximum sentences for being drunk and disorderly, not paying | :06:28. | :06:35. | |
your TV licence, and failing to ensure your children attend school | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
regularly will be up under legislation put before Parliament | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
today. The Government are saying, we trust magistrates to deal with this, | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
to use their discretion to fine appropriately, and we find that | :06:50. | :06:56. | |
rewarding. And for speeding on the motorway, another fourfold increase | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
in the maximum fine, up from ?2500 to ?10,000. On the face of it, it | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
sounds like a Draconian level of fine, it is a headline grabbing | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
figure, but the reality is, fines for speeding and other offences have | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
declined in recent years, largely because we do not have the traffic | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
enforcement officers out there to implement them. These changes do not | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
mean that magistrates will make everyone pay the maximum ?10,000 | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
fine. All fines must reflect the seriousness of the offence. But the | :07:32. | :07:40. | |
court also have to take into consideration a person's ability to | :07:41. | :08:03. | |
pay. So someone on benefits caught hurtling down the motorway at | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
excessive speed will not begin in a ?10,000 fine which they cannot pay. | :08:06. | :08:06. | |
The Government says increasing fines can be effective in punishing and | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
deterring criminals. Not everybody agrees. Full this does not seem to | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
be the answer. Money is not always the answer. Maybe they should find | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
more officers to enforce the law. Magistrates will also be able to | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
impose unlimited fines for the most serious offences. Crime, they say, | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
does not pay. But for those who commit it, the cost could get a | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
whole lot greater. A fresh gun battle has erupted close | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
to Pakistan's busiest airport in the city of Karachi, just a day after | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
militants launched a deadly raid on one of its terminals in which | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
more than 30 people were killed. Security forces have again come | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
under attack - officials say gunmen on motorbikes | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
shot at a training camp just outside Our world affairs correspondent Mike | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
Wooldridge reports from Islamabad. A new gunfight today, on the edge of | :08:44. | :09:10. | |
Pakistan's busiest airport. The target was a building close to the | :09:11. | :09:20. | |
airport perimeter, used by the Airport Security Force for training | :09:21. | :09:49. | |
and weapons storage. Sugared gunmen tried to enter the building, firing | :09:50. | :09:59. | |
shots. The army fought back, pursuing the gunmen over the course | :10:00. | :10:10. | |
of an hour or so. TRANSLATION: At the moment, the situation is under | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
control. No terrorist is present in the area, no one has penetrated | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
security. Flights are operating normally. The Pakistani Prime | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
Minister, now was Sharif, called for the meant to be eliminated. Today, | :10:29. | :10:34. | |
the bodies of seven more thick teams of Sunday's attack were recovered. | :10:35. | :10:41. | |
They had taken refuge in a cold storage building and died there | :10:42. | :10:48. | |
before they could be rescued. In all of this, there are echoes of the | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
violence which peaked here just months after peace negotiations made | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
a halting start. And Mike joins me now | :10:58. | :10:59. | |
from Islamabad. This happened in the most important | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
economic city of this country. It does nothing once again for the | :11:05. | :11:13. | |
image of Pakistan. The government will want this to be seen as a | :11:14. | :11:22. | |
response, with every risk that this cycle of violence will simply | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
Tesco Bank is to offer a current account for the first time. | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
Until now, it has provided just credit cards, | :11:30. | :11:31. | |
Around three-quarters of current accounts | :11:32. | :11:33. | |
in the UK are with the so-called "big four", and the Government has | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
encouraged so-called challenger banks to increase competition. | :11:37. | :11:38. | |
Our personal finance correspondent Simon Gompertz reports. | :11:39. | :11:47. | |
In amongst the nappies and the pick and mix, now you can get a current | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
account. Because Tesco is so big, it has the potential to give high | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
street banks run for money. We are building a bank for generations to | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
come. There will be greater transparency. Customers tell they | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
are fed up with the smoke and mirrors and the need to pay | :12:08. | :12:14. | |
attention to small print. There will be a possible ?5 monthly charge, | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
however, there will be the prospect of Tesco Clubcard points. Tesco | :12:19. | :12:25. | |
already has 6 million banking customers with savings and credit | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
cards, 12% of all credit card transactions are on Tesco cards, and | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
it is hoping that many of its 17 million Clubcard members will be | :12:35. | :12:43. | |
tempted to move. For me, it is about internet banking. If they can offer | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
a better banking service through the internet, then yes. I am not only in | :12:49. | :12:56. | |
Tesco's, I am in Sainsbury's, everywhere. TSP is expanding, along | :12:57. | :13:05. | |
with Metro bank in some areas, and a Virgin account is on the way. Will | :13:06. | :13:12. | |
the big banks be in retreat? The current-account market is still | :13:13. | :13:14. | |
heavily dominated by the big players. I do not think they will be | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
losing too much sleep, there has got to be much more done to get serious | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
competition back into retail banking. The Tesco brand has taken a | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
knock with poorer sales recently, so it is hoping that customers with | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
current accounts will also spend more on Tesco groceries. | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
FIFA's President Sepp Blatter has lashed out at critics | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, accusing them of racism. | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
With just two days to go until the start of this year's tournament, | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
football leaders are gathering in Brazil to discuss the allegations | :13:46. | :13:47. | |
of corruption surrounding Qatar's winning bid for the tournament - a | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
controversy that is likely to dominate proceedings. Our sports | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
editor, David Bond, reports from Brazil. | :13:53. | :14:02. | |
This is the prize every team here in Brazil is aiming for. But for the | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
last couple of weeks, it has been harder to focus on the football. | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
Later today, the leaders of the world game with gather here for the | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
FIFA congress. Once again, the subject of the to tell world is | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
likely to overshadow proceedings. For the FIFA president, Sepp | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
Blatter, this is all an unwanted distraction. Yesterday, he said the | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
British media's latest wave of allegations about was motivated by | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
racism. The claims centre on this man, Mohammed bin Hammam, accused of | :14:37. | :14:45. | |
making payments to football officials in return for their | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
support during the race for the 2022 World Cup. Katyn deny the | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
allegations, and FIFA says it is investigating, but changes to the | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
bidding process have already been made. In future, it will not be done | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
by the executive committee of FIFA, but it will be done by the FIFA | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
Congress. So it is clear that FIFA has changed the way it is directed | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
and controlled. We have introduced a series of checks and balances. | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
Despite all of the criticism, Sepp Blatter is expected to announce here | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
at the Congress that he wants to continue to run world football until | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
2019. What most people care about right now, though, | :15:27. | :15:28. | |
2019. What most people care about right is the start of the World Cup, | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
which finally gets going on Thursday. | :15:32. | :15:32. | |
Our sports correspondent Natalie Pirks is in Copacobana. | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
All eyes on a Roy Hodgson news conference later? Absolutely. He | :15:41. | :15:52. | |
will give his first press conference in about an hour and at the moment | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
it is rather calm and relaxed. Some players showed just how relaxed they | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
were yesterday when they visited a nor -- nearby demonstration. Daniel | :16:05. | :16:15. | |
Sturridge in particular got involved with handstands, cartwheels and | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
samba moves. It shows they are quite happy at the moment. He could have a | :16:19. | :16:22. | |
large role to play on Saturday when they face Italy in Manaus, where the | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
weather will be hotter and more humid. They might feel at home today | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
because it is much colder and quite wet but at least they got a good | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
training session in yesterday at their military base, in the shadow | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
of Sugar Loaf Mountain, and it was very hot, nudging 30. A lot of water | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
taken on and a lot of water spray. Steven Gerrard only completed half | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
of that training session because he came off early with a tight groin. | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
They said that was just a precaution but when we hear from Roy Hodgson in | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
an hour that will be one of the main question is, whether the captain | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
will be fit for the game against thank you. | :17:05. | :17:08. | |

And the next generation of playwrights whose works are selling | :17:37. | :17:37. | |
out at the royal court. An international four-day summit | :17:38. | :17:50. | |
on how to end sexual violence during war has opened in London. | :17:51. | :17:52. | |
The event, hosted by the Foreign Secretary | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
William Hague and the actress and UN special envoy Angelina Jolie is the | :17:57. | :17:58. | |
culmination of a two-year campaign to raise awareness about the issue. | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
Some of the figures surrounding the issue are disturbing. | :18:02. | :18:03. | |
There are 1100 rapes reported monthly in the Democratic Republic | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
of Congo. 50,000 women were raped | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
in the Bosnian conflict. And as many | :18:11. | :18:13. | |
as half a million women were raped during the Rwandan genocide. | :18:14. | :18:16. | |
Our world affairs correspondent Emily Buchanan has the latest. | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
Rape has long been a tool of terror, a means to dominate and | :18:24. | :18:31. | |
sometimes to eliminate an enemy. But it has also widely been ignored. | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
Seen as merely the collateral damage of conflict. Not any more. Sexual | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
violence has been propelled to world attention. The foreign secretary | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
William Hague and Angelina Jolie went to Bosnia in March and heard | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
how rape was part of the Bosnian Serb strategy. While many of the | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
women still suffer, the perpetrators are free. The aim of today's London | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
conference is to bring justice for victims. We can remove war zone rape | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
from the world arsenal of cruelty. We can't do this overnight. We can't | :19:05. | :19:13. | |
do it overnight. Follow British Government and for Angelina and for | :19:14. | :19:16. | |
me personally this summit is not the end of the road for our work. It is | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
in many ways just the beginning. Angelina Jolie said military, | :19:22. | :19:29. | |
conflict was no excuse for sex accounts. This whole subject has | :19:30. | :19:38. | |
been taboo for too long. War zone rape is a crime that thrives on | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
silence and denial. The stigma harms survivors and causes feelings of | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
shame and worthlessness. It feeds ignorance, such as the notion that | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
rape has anything to do with normal sexual impulses. But most of all, it | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
allows the rapist to get away with it. We must send a message around | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
the world that there is no disgrace in being a survivor of sexual | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
violence, that the shame is on the aggressor. Rape is as old as war | :20:08. | :20:16. | |
itself and it makes it harder for communities to recover. In reminder, | :20:17. | :20:23. | |
the ethnic cleansing included sexual mutilation as well as killing. The | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
survivors to this day have to live with the legacy. In Sudan's Darfur | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
region, rape became a way of life for women and even young children. | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
Many might ask if a conference can really prevent such atrocities. | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
People need to know that they can act and if they speak out, they are | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
joining a group of people that say they will bring this to an end. Also | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
there will be seriously powerful people at this summit. They will be | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
making commitments, further investment in really targeting | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
interventions full survivors, but also methods to prevent sexual | :20:58. | :21:06. | |
violence in the future. Women often struggle for the rest of their lives | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
to cope with the physical and psychological damage of sex attacks. | :21:10. | :21:11. | |
If global money and political will can make a difference, the next | :21:12. | :21:14. | |
generation at least might suffer less. Emily Buchanan, BBC News. | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
Emily Buchanan has the latest. There's still deadlock over who | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
should take over as President of the European Commission, | :21:22. | :21:23. | |
with Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel and Britain's David Cameron | :21:24. | :21:24. | |
openly disagreeing. She wants Luxembourg's Jean-Claude | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
Juncker to have the job. He doesn't, saying appointing | :21:28. | :21:28. | |
Juncker would be a stitch-up. Is there any sign of compromise from | :21:29. | :21:38. | |
anyone? Not much. When the four leaders had a press conference here, | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
the mood was quite chummy. They are all centre-right European leaders | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
and they all want reform of the European Union. On that they can | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
agree. On the question of Jean-Claude Juncker and whether he | :21:50. | :21:51. | |
should be the next European Commission President, there is | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
clearly a difference between Germany and Britain in particular. David | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
Cameron reasserted his view that he is simply not the man for a reformed | :22:00. | :22:09. | |
European Union. They think he is yesterday's Brussels bureaucrat. | :22:10. | :22:11. | |
They don't think the process that produced him as frontrunner was | :22:12. | :22:13. | |
right. Angela Merkel feels differently. David Cameron was asked | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
if he warned Angela Merkel that if he does become President that it | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
could accelerate Britain's move to the exit door of Europe. Angela | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
Merkel answered for him, saying it must be done in a European spirit | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
and any threats were not welcome. This is being interpreted by some as | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
a possible rebuke to David Cameron, confirmation that he made this | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
warning, which Downing Street are denying. It could also be a warning | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
to the European Parliament not to overstep its mark and post | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
Jean-Claude Juncker on an unwilling Europe. So on that key issue, still | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
significant disagreement. Thank you. Juncker would be a stitch-up. | :22:52. | :23:00. | |
One in three adults in England is on the verge | :23:01. | :23:02. | |
of developing type two diabetes. Researchers say there's been | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
an extremely rapid rise in cases of pre-diabetes since 2003. | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
Our health correspondent Dominic Hughes reports. | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
Developing type two diabetes can have a profound impact on your life. | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
Helen Barker and agree. I had to stop eating rubbish and start | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
exercising. I had seen diabetes with my brother and my father and I did | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
not want it in my life so I had to stop it happening. Researchers warn | :23:31. | :23:33. | |
that one in three of us are now at risk. Looking at data gathered from | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
thousands of us in England, they saw that in 2000 and 311% of adults | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
surveyed had prediabetes. By 2011, the figures had travelled to 35%. | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
Between five and ten people with prediabetes will go on to develop | :23:51. | :23:58. | |
type two diabetes each year. Many of us already suffer from type two | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
diabetes and research warns that many more are at risk of developing | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
it. This condition can have a serious impact on your health but in | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
80% of cases it is almost entirely avoidable. Diabetes UK says those at | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
risk and the Government needs to think hard about their response. | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
Reality is that if you are overweight not doing activity, not | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
eating a healthy diet, your risk of developing type two diabetes is high | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
and you need to find out your risk and do something about it. The | :24:31. | :24:33. | |
Government needs to wake up and smell the coffee and realise that | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
the tidal wave of diabetes is coming towards it. Treating diabetes costs | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
the NHS around one tenth of its total budget every year. As well as | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
being a stark warning about the risks to our health, today's study | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
also has serious financial implications. Dominic Hughes, BBC | :24:52. | :24:53. | |

It's the sporting event Britain has never won but that's | :24:59. | :25:00. | |
about to change if Sir Ben Ainslie has anything to do with it. | :25:01. | :25:03. | |
The most successful Olympic sailor of all time, Sir Ben, | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
hopes to help Britannia rule the waves with his new team which | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
he unveiled today in Portsmouth. Our sports correspondent Joe Wilson | :25:10. | :25:10. | |
is in Greenwich. Nobody does maritime history like | :25:11. | :25:17. | |
Great Britain and here we are at the heart of it in Greenwich. Building a | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
team for the America's Cup in 2017 takes time and money but this is the | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
theory. Start with Ben Ainslie and everything else will follow. The | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
Duchess of Cambridge with the King of sailing. Kate Middleton and Ben | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
Ainslie near the Greenwich Maritime Museum this morning. The launch of a | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
team to try to finally win a competition that Britain invented. | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
Since 1851, a British boat has never won the America's Cup. In fact it is | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
50 years since the last British challenger. These days you need ?80 | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
million to get anywhere but Ben Ainslie hopes there is now the money | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
and technology in Britain to compete. If you could swap one of | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
your four Olympic gold battles for an America's Cup, would you take | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
that? Absolutely. Two? For a British team to win the America's Cup I | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
would probably give all of them apart from London 2012. It is such a | :26:13. | :26:18. | |
huge deal for us. We have never won it and it is the oldest trophy in | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
international sport. It would be massive for us to bring it back to | :26:22. | :26:28. | |
British waters. Last year's the USA team Oracle were on the point of | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
being defeated, so they put Ben Ainslie in charge and won. They are | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
the defending champions now facing the prospect of racing against Ben | :26:39. | :26:43. | |
Ainslie's British team. This time it is a different thing. We are on | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
different teams and I am expecting nothing short of a full on | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
bare-knuckle brawl. There will be no pulling punches and it will be all | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
on. Good mates of the water but, man, it will be brutal on the water. | :26:56. | :27:02. | |
For age and size, no trophy can match the America's Cup. All that | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
has been missing is a British team inscribed upon it. Luckily winning | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
is what Ben Ainslie does best. Two quick points. There could be as many | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
as ten other teams around the world that want to take on the defending | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
champion and secondly Ben Ainslie's team still needs to raise 60% of its | :27:20. | :27:21. | |
money. Thank you. is in Greenwich. | :27:22. | :27:30. | |
A painting gifted to the National Trust has been verified | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
as a genuine Rembrandt, estimated to be worth ?30 million. | :27:34. | :27:35. | |
The self-portrait, which hangs in Devon's Buckland Abbey, | :27:36. | :27:38. | |
had been the subject of debate over its authenticity since 1968. | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
David Sillito reports. No one has ever doubted that the | :27:45. | :27:47. | |
man in the picture is Rembrandt. The question that's hung over this | :27:48. | :27:49. | |
painting in Buckland Abbey for centuries is did Rembrandt | :27:50. | :27:51. | |
actually paint it? We now have an answer. | :27:52. | :27:53. | |
Yes. I am gently removing | :27:54. | :27:56. | |
the varnish layer. Christine Stillwell has spent | :27:57. | :27:59. | |
eight months examining it. There were many clues | :28:00. | :28:03. | |
in the paint and the signature. The signature, | :28:04. | :28:06. | |
it was a question of whether it had been put on the painting | :28:07. | :28:09. | |
when the painting was painted. A small sample | :28:10. | :28:15. | |
of the extreme edge of the painting with the signature shows that they | :28:16. | :28:17. | |
were intimately connected, the two paint layers, and it shows | :28:18. | :28:20. | |
very clearly the signature was on when the painting was painted. | :28:21. | :28:24. | |
And even closer examination shows it's not a copy | :28:25. | :28:27. | |
because we can see the painter thinking, changing his mind. | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
We can see marks where he has been nervously painting areas | :28:33. | :28:37. | |
and then gone back over it and changed things. | :28:38. | :28:40. | |
It shows us the silhouette has changed | :28:41. | :28:44. | |
but also the pose has changed. Previously his left hand was | :28:45. | :28:47. | |
held out in front of his chest. And the value now? | :28:48. | :28:51. | |
The value has changed considerably. It is now probably worth about ?30 | :28:52. | :28:54. | |
million but that is nominal because we do not deaccession art | :28:55. | :28:58. | |
in the National Trust so it will stay in Buckland Abbey | :28:59. | :29:02. | |
for everyone to enjoy forever. The National Trust has | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
13,000 paintings. It now finally has a Rembrandt. | :29:06. | :29:07. | |
David Sillito, BBC News. Now the weather. Like yesterday, a | :29:08. | :29:18. | |
real mixture. Now the weather. Like yesterday, | :29:19. | :29:24. | |
Sunshine for some but heavy and thundery downpours out there. Over | :29:25. | :29:28. | |
the next couple of days we will lose those showers as it turns dry and | :29:29. | :29:33. | |
for some feeling warmer as well. The latest satellite picture shows | :29:34. | :29:36. | |
clearer skies in the South and East and much more cloud North and West. | :29:37. | :29:40. | |
This will continue to be the focus of heavy showers for the next couple | :29:41. | :29:45. | |
of hours. Some downpours across parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, | :29:46. | :29:50. | |
down through northern England and Wales. In Scotland, there is a | :29:51. | :29:59. | |
breeze, so showers are moving through and in between we will see | :30:00. | :30:02. | |
dry and bright spells. In Northern Ireland, showers are more | :30:03. | :30:07. | |
slow-moving with heavy downpours. Hail and thunder. Showers stretching | :30:08. | :30:11. | |
down across Wales, mainly focused on the North coast of Cornwall. The | :30:12. | :30:19. | |
South coast should be mainly dry and fine with temperatures up to 22. | :30:20. | :30:25. | |
This evening we keep the showers. Taking their time but eventually | :30:26. | :30:27. | |
losing their intensity and clearing away. There are lots of places | :30:28. | :30:33. | |
tonight will be dry with clearing skies and in the Southeast a more | :30:34. | :30:36. | |
comfortable night for sleeping. Temperatures beginning tomorrow | :30:37. | :30:41. | |
morning at 12 to 13. Tomorrow should be fine and dry foremost tomorrow | :30:42. | :30:45. | |
with bright spells of sunshine coming and going and more cloud in | :30:46. | :30:51. | |
the afternoon. Showers like and scattered and mainly focused across | :30:52. | :30:56. | |
the northern half of the UK. Temperatures for many will reach the | :30:57. | :31:00. | |
high teens and possibly the low 20s in the South East. Dry at Queen's | :31:01. | :31:04. | |
Club and more clout in Birmingham. As we go through the week, high | :31:05. | :31:12. | |
pressure holding on. It will squeeze South and these weather front come | :31:13. | :31:16. | |
into the North. By Thursday, more cloud in the North and West with | :31:17. | :31:21. | |
outbreaks of rain. Fairly patchy and light and focused in the North | :31:22. | :31:26. | |
West. Despite cloud in Northern Ireland, temperatures still in the | :31:27. | :31:28. | |
high teens, but sunshine further South and East means that | :31:29. | :31:34. | |
temperatures reach the mid 20s. By Friday, southern areas keep hold of | :31:35. | :31:38. | |
the dry whether with temperatures in the mid-20s. Further North, more | :31:39. | :31:44. | |
complicated with weak weather front producing more cloud and patchy | :31:45. | :31:46. |
