:01:44. > :01:46.journalist, in retaliation, it says, for US airstrikes
:01:47. > :01:50.against its forces in Iraq. He's identified in the recording
:01:51. > :01:53.as James Foley, a 40-year-old photojournalist who was abducted
:01:54. > :01:57.in Syria two years ago. The masked militant in the video

:02:37. > :02:40.those who knew his work and his generosity of spirit, before he was
:02:41. > :02:47.kidnapped in Syria nearly two years ago. Last night, militants posted a
:02:48. > :02:51.video online, appearing to show him being beheaded by an Islamic State

:03:37. > :03:40.well aware of the dangers, having worked in Libya. There does seem to
:03:41. > :03:46.be a strong sense they will not give up their fight. In November 2012, he
:03:47. > :03:53.was seized by gunmen in Syria. Now his friends' hopes for his eventual
:03:54. > :03:57.release have been all but dashed. James was a true professional. He
:03:58. > :04:02.was really dedicated to journalism. He believed in what he was doing. He
:04:03. > :04:06.would not let anything stop. His mother paid her own tribute to him
:04:07. > :04:11.on Facebook. She said she was proud of her son and he gave his life

:04:29. > :04:31.aware that there are significant numbers of British nationals
:04:32. > :04:39.involved in terrible crimes, probably in the commission of
:04:40. > :04:43.atrocities, making jihad with IS and other extremist organisations. This
:04:44. > :04:50.is something we have been tracking and dealing with for many, many
:04:51. > :04:53.months. James Foley's killer will almost certainly be identified. But
:04:54. > :04:56.the chances of bringing him to justice amid all the fighting are
:04:57. > :05:02.very slim. Frank is with me now. This video
:05:03. > :05:06.will be going under intense scrutiny? Yes, it will. I think
:05:07. > :05:11.there is a lot of political pressure to identify this man and try and
:05:12. > :05:17.bring him to justice. President Obama's administration will want
:05:18. > :05:20.some explanation. But in the murky world of counterterrorism and
:05:21. > :05:24.intelligence, this is a case of this is part of an ongoing effort which
:05:25. > :05:28.they have been doing for months to try and identify some of the 500
:05:29. > :05:35.estimated Britons who have won out to Syria. Most of them have gone out
:05:36. > :05:40.to extremist groups. How do they identify them? They have adopted
:05:41. > :05:41.names, Abu this, Abu that. A lot of them post on Facebook.
:05:42. > :05:44.names, Abu this, Abu that. A lot of them post on They identify
:05:45. > :05:49.themselves on Twitter and other social media. When they come back to
:05:50. > :05:56.this country, many of them will stay out there and get killed. There will
:05:57. > :06:01.be an intense effort to try and identify who this man is and to try
:06:02. > :06:05.and bring him to justice. In northern Iraq and northern Syria, it
:06:06. > :06:10.will be very difficult to find him. Thank you.
:06:11. > :06:14.In a moment, we will speak to our correspondent in Washington. First,
:06:15. > :06:17.Carole Walker is in Downing Street. The possible involvement of a
:06:18. > :06:23.British citizen has brought the Prime Minister out of holiday and
:06:24. > :06:27.back to Downing Street. Yes, he is due back here shortly, clearly aware
:06:28. > :06:31.of the impact this video will have had and the concerns it will have
:06:32. > :06:34.raised among many people and the need to refocus the government
:06:35. > :06:41.response to this crisis. Until now it has all been about the
:06:42. > :06:45.humanitarian problems, what can be done to protect the refugees in the
:06:46. > :06:49.area and to get relief supplies through to those who have been
:06:50. > :06:53.forced to flee their homes. Now the real priority will be to try and
:06:54. > :06:58.establish more about the identity of who may have been involved in this
:06:59. > :07:02.video, which the Prime Minister has described as shocking and depraved.
:07:03. > :07:05.It underlines what the Prime Minister and others have been
:07:06. > :07:10.saying, about the dangers of British fighters involved in this. Clearly
:07:11. > :07:15.this is not something so ministers have been telling us, that can be
:07:16. > :07:19.ignored. If people are involved in these kind of appalling acts out in
:07:20. > :07:23.Iraq and Syria, then clearly there is the potential that that threat
:07:24. > :07:26.could be brought back onto the streets of Britain. The Prime
:07:27. > :07:30.Minister will be talking not just to the Foreign Secretary, home
:07:31. > :07:34.officials -- Home Office officials and other intelligence, there will
:07:35. > :07:39.be clearly a song with the United States as he seeks to take personal
:07:40. > :07:42.charge of the government's response here and try and offer what
:07:43. > :07:47.reassurance he can to the British public, but the government is doing
:07:48. > :07:51.all it can to counter the security threat. Thank you. We can go to
:07:52. > :07:57.Washington now. The sense of shock and revulsion and
:07:58. > :08:02.also a dignified response from James Foley's family. Yes, that is right.
:08:03. > :08:06.They said how proud they were of their son trying to expose the
:08:07. > :08:14.suffering of the Syrian people to the world. And also appealing for
:08:15. > :08:17.the release of the other journalist who was pictured in the video. As
:08:18. > :08:21.America wakes up to the enormity of this tragedy, a lot of attention is
:08:22. > :08:26.now turning to the safety of the other journalists who are being
:08:27. > :08:33.helped by this group. At least three other unknown to be captives, not
:08:34. > :08:37.necessarily of Islamic State but have been missing for some years and
:08:38. > :08:42.there is some concern about what America's response should be. The
:08:43. > :08:46.morning network shows were talking about whether this beheading should
:08:47. > :08:50.have any impact on American foreign policy in Iraq and Syria and what
:08:51. > :08:55.the response should be. We are still waiting for it to be authenticated
:08:56. > :08:59.and until that happens, there will be no statement from President
:09:00. > :09:03.Obama. Once the official word is given, then we can expect some kind
:09:04. > :09:09.of formal response. Thank you both very much.

:12:06. > :12:08.on the Monetary Policy Committee voted for an interest rate rise.
:12:09. > :12:15.Interest rates have been at historic lows, 0.5%, for many, many years.
:12:16. > :12:19.This is a signal. I have actually brought along the minutes of the
:12:20. > :12:24.meeting to say why is it that these two people on the Monetary Policy
:12:25. > :12:33.Committee voted for a rise at this stage. They say the fall in
:12:34. > :12:38.unemployment has been rapid. That wage growth could pick up and if we
:12:39. > :12:41.move now, it means we will not need more rapid rises in the future. The
:12:42. > :12:44.key question is, will anyone else join them? It is still seven to two
:12:45. > :12:48.against so interest rates are not rising in the immediate future. I
:12:49. > :12:51.think if we look at the figures we saw yesterday about inflation
:12:52. > :12:57.falling, that suggests that interest rates will not rise fray quickly.
:12:58. > :13:01.The other issue is, as we all know, real incomes are still going down. I
:13:02. > :13:08.think until we get to that stage, the governor of England wants to see
:13:09. > :13:12.escape full city in the economy. I do not believe he feels that he has
:13:13. > :13:14.got to that. Economists are saying no interest rate rise until spring

:14:29. > :14:33.standing outside the house to see which way I had driven when I left.
:14:34. > :14:45.Now the government is consulting on whether to make domestic abuse a
:14:46. > :14:50.separate criminal offence, focusing on psychological as well as physical
:14:51. > :14:52.abuse. We do not think at the moment that police are taking seriously the
:14:53. > :14:55.issue of coercive control and repeated nonphysical abuse which is
:14:56. > :14:59.why I think it is right to consult on this to make sure the public at
:15:00. > :15:00.large is in no doubt that firstly the government takes this matter
:15:01. > :15:04.seriously, and secondly nonphysical abuse can be just as debilitating as
:15:05. > :15:10.physical abuse. The government argues that those found guilty of
:15:11. > :15:17.coercive behaviour can be prosecuted in the courts for offences of
:15:18. > :15:25.stalking and harassment. But that does not apply specifically to the
:15:26. > :15:30.partner so this new criminal offence would end the ambiguity. Some people
:15:31. > :15:34.are not convinced. If the government are concerned about domestic abuse,
:15:35. > :15:38.they should really put resources into training police or training
:15:39. > :15:44.prosecutors. If they really do think that victims' voices are not heard,
:15:45. > :15:48.that would be a far better use of their resources. The eight-week

:23:50. > :23:54.have been able to do some cycling and some walking. For a few months,
:23:55. > :23:58.I couldn't do anything like that. Today's report says patients need
:23:59. > :24:04.better information about safety in private hospitals. They treat more
:24:05. > :24:09.than a million patients a year, including 400,000 who are funded by
:24:10. > :24:13.the NHS in England. But it is not yet possible to compare data for
:24:14. > :24:17.death rates or complications between different NHS and independent
:24:18. > :24:26.hospices. The basic necessity is to make all hospitals report the same
:24:27. > :24:35.data so that they can be compared with each other and so that the data
:24:36. > :24:44.can be analysed and where it shows where problems are, the problems can
:24:45. > :24:45.be fixed. Patients' charity said people need the fullest information
:24:46. > :24:46.about the hospital, wherever they are being treated. The private
:24:47. > :24:47.sector says it is putting better systems in place. We already have
:24:48. > :24:48.more information than was previously available, and in the next two
:24:49. > :24:55.years, patients will start to see on our website information that is

:29:07. > :29:11.later in the day, but increasing amounts of cloud coming from the
:29:12. > :29:15.north-west and turning wetter in the north-west of Scotland. A poor day

:29:47. > :30:02.it will not be as cold as last night. A bright start in the East
:30:03. > :30:09.tomorrow. There will be a loss of cloud further north. It is going to

:30:13. > :30:16.on Friday, we could start with quite a few heavy downpours. Those will
