:01:29. > :01:34.Good afternoon. Welcome to the BBC News at One. South Yorkshire Police,

:01:35. > :01:37.the force at the centre of the Rotherham child abuse scandal, has

:01:38. > :01:42.commissioned an independent investigation into its handling of

:01:43. > :01:45.the affair. It comes as a police officer told the BBC that senior

:01:46. > :01:50.officers within the force failed to treat the problem seriously enough.

:01:51. > :01:53.Labour has suspended four of its local party members over the affair.

:01:54. > :01:59.Three of them councillors. A report last week found that more than 1,400

:02:00. > :02:06.children were abused from 1997 to 2013. Ed Thomas reports.

:02:07. > :02:16.Rotherham is now a town full of apologies, but sorry isn't enough.

:02:17. > :02:21.It is still having an affect on my mental health, depression, anorexia.

:02:22. > :02:25.It makes me feel sick. For several years, Sarah was repeatedly raped

:02:26. > :02:29.and sold by a gang of Pakistani men. If I didn't do as I was told, I was

:02:30. > :02:34.beaten. I have had black eyes, busted lips. I have been held by my

:02:35. > :02:37.throat that tight I passed out. We have protected her identity. She

:02:38. > :02:41.asked the police for help. When I tried to tell somebody, I was told I

:02:42. > :02:46.was a liar. A police officer said that to you? Yes. I told social

:02:47. > :02:51.workers, I told officers, nobody listened. To find out why victims

:02:52. > :02:54.like Sarah were failed, South Yorkshire Police will commission an

:02:55. > :02:59.independent inquiry to get to the truth. I don't think they were

:03:00. > :03:03.sufficiently organised... Speaking for the first time, this former

:03:04. > :03:07.police officer investigated the grooming gangs in Rotherham. Was

:03:08. > :03:12.child sexual exploitation a priority? It wasn't. Did they treat

:03:13. > :03:18.it seriously? No, it wasn't treated seriously. I have got to say that it

:03:19. > :03:22.wasn't treated seriously enough. These five men represent the only

:03:23. > :03:30.grooming gang to be jailed in Rotherham. Do you think some in the

:03:31. > :03:34.police were worried that these gangs were predominantly Pakistani origin

:03:35. > :03:38.heritage men? Nobody wants to be called a racist. The girls were let

:03:39. > :03:43.down by the police and society. They were disbelieved and it bordered on

:03:44. > :03:49.contempt. We have asked South Yorkshire Police to respond. The

:03:50. > :03:53.force has previously said sorry. This solicitor represents 19

:03:54. > :03:57.victims. He believes there needs to be a public inquiry into what

:03:58. > :04:01.happened. The victims were saying to me they want justice and they want

:04:02. > :04:05.the police to investigate their cases, but if it turns out that the

:04:06. > :04:09.police have been deliberately turning blind eyes, they want

:04:10. > :04:13.prosecutions of those officers who have ignored their complaints.

:04:14. > :04:18.Pressure is building. Here, the Labour Party has suspended four of

:04:19. > :04:23.its members. The calls for accountability grow louder. Ed

:04:24. > :04:26.Thomas, BBC News, Rotherham. In the last few minutes, the Home

:04:27. > :04:31.Secretary, Theresa May, has answered an urgent question on the case in

:04:32. > :04:35.the House of Commons. Our assistant political editor, Norman Smith, is

:04:36. > :04:39.in Westminster. What we heard from Theresa May this lunch time was an

:04:40. > :04:43.unflinching condemnation of the conduct of the police and local

:04:44. > :04:50.authority in Rotherham who, she said, were guilty of a dereliction

:04:51. > :04:54.of duty, of having a disdainful attitude towards those children who

:04:55. > :05:00.came to them with claims of child sexual abuse. She said there was a

:05:01. > :05:06.fear of being accused of being racist, a concern for cultural

:05:07. > :05:13.issues, for racial sensitivities. Consequently, she said the

:05:14. > :05:18.Government was now looking at an investigation into the corporate

:05:19. > :05:23.governance of Rotherham Council and new guidance will be issued to the

:05:24. > :05:28.police. She said there could be no excuses for what had happened in

:05:29. > :05:31.Rotherham. The abuse of children is a particularly vile crime and one

:05:32. > :05:36.this Government is determined to stop. We have made significant

:05:37. > :05:40.strides since 2010. We have important work under way. We will

:05:41. > :05:44.learn the lessons from the report to make sure we are doing all we can to

:05:45. > :05:50.safeguard children and to prosecute the people behind these disgusting

:05:51. > :05:55.crimes. Now, what we did not get from Mrs May was a name of who is

:05:56. > :05:58.going to chair this overarching inquiry into child sex abuse

:05:59. > :06:06.announced back in July when, you will remember, the chairman resigned

:06:07. > :06:10.after family connections to some of those allegations in the 1980s.

:06:11. > :06:14.Labour says Mrs May's failure to appoint a chairman shows a lack of

:06:15. > :06:20.awareness of the public concern. Mrs May said she will appoint someone

:06:21. > :06:25.soon, but you sense the political consensus there has existed around

:06:26. > :06:28.this issue is now beginning to fracture and splinter apart. Thank

:06:29. > :06:33.you very much. Norman Smith there.

:06:34. > :06:38.The Airports Commission has rejected a plan to build a new airport on an

:06:39. > :06:41.island in the Thames Estuary, saying the economic and environmental costs

:06:42. > :06:44.were too high. The Mayor of London, who backed the proposal, reacted

:06:45. > :06:49.with anger, saying it was the only credible option. The commission will

:06:50. > :06:52.choose between expanding Heathrow or Gatwick. Our transport

:06:53. > :06:57.correspondent, Richard Westcott, reports.

:06:58. > :07:01.Coming into land on what would have been Boris Island. The most

:07:02. > :07:07.ambitious and expensive of all the proposals for new runways in the UK.

:07:08. > :07:10.Now, thrown out by the Airports Commission. In the end, it is the

:07:11. > :07:14.scale of this project that's put them off, turning this quiet beach

:07:15. > :07:17.into one of the world's busiest airports, if you can imagine it. I'm

:07:18. > :07:21.standing where the planes would be touching down. There would be

:07:22. > :07:24.thousands of new homes, new offices, new railway lines, new roads. It is

:07:25. > :07:30.a project on a scale we haven't seen before. We think the risks of the

:07:31. > :07:34.project are immense. The logistical risk of moving the whole operation

:07:35. > :07:39.of Heathrow 70 miles across the city and the environmental risks which

:07:40. > :07:43.are very difficult to overcome. He's angered the scheme's main

:07:44. > :07:47.cheerleader, Boris Johnson, one of the few politicians who has been

:07:48. > :07:52.frank about this toxic issue. We shouldn't be contracting out this

:07:53. > :07:56.decision to distinguished former civil servants, no matter how

:07:57. > :08:01.eminent they are. I have got great respect for Sir Howard and his track

:08:02. > :08:05.record. This is a political decision. It needs leadership. It

:08:06. > :08:10.needs to be pushed forward. So now we are down to a shortlist of three.

:08:11. > :08:14.The first from Heathrow's owners, a new runway to the north of the

:08:15. > :08:19.airport. The second, from a private bidder, doubling the length of one

:08:20. > :08:23.of Heathrow's existing runways. Or adding a second runway at Gatwick

:08:24. > :08:27.Airport instead. Just a few years ago, the coalition said it wouldn't

:08:28. > :08:33.look at expanding Heathrow. The focus is now back on the West London

:08:34. > :08:38.airport. It is the scheme that's split politicians, voters and people

:08:39. > :08:44.living under the flight path. We are 100% against it. It means the loss

:08:45. > :08:51.of my house, which is a big loss. Where do I go? People are looking

:08:52. > :08:52.for jobs these days. It will bring more jobs to here.

:08:53. > :08:55.for jobs these days. It will bring more jobs We have lived with this

:08:56. > :09:04.fear of not knowing what is going on. I wish somebody would make a

:09:05. > :09:08.decision. The UK's been debating runways for decades, yet nothing new

:09:09. > :09:12.has been built. Many business leaders say a lack of flights to

:09:13. > :09:16.growing markets is costing the country billions in lost trade. Yet

:09:17. > :09:22.the Airports Commission still won't make a final recommendation until

:09:23. > :09:27.after the general election. What is clear is that for the foreseeable

:09:28. > :09:30.future, the only things landing in this part of the Thames Estuary will

:09:31. > :09:34.be thrown by the locals. Richard Westcott, BBC News.

:09:35. > :09:36.The Crown Prosecution Service says it's reviewing the case against the

:09:37. > :09:40.parents of a five-year-old child with a brain tumour who was removed

:09:41. > :09:44.from Southampton General Hospital. Brett and Naghemeh King are in

:09:45. > :09:47.custody in Spain while a court considers an extradition request

:09:48. > :09:51.from Britain. The hospital has announced it is beginning an

:09:52. > :09:55.internal review of the case. Our correspondent, Duncan Kennedy,

:09:56. > :09:59.reports. Unaware of the legal issues being

:10:00. > :10:03.discussed around him, Ashya King continues to be looked after by

:10:04. > :10:07.doctors in Spain. One of his brothers has been allowed to see him

:10:08. > :10:12.at the hospital in Malaga and, by all accounts, he appears stable. But

:10:13. > :10:17.his mother and father, Brett and Naghemeh King, haven't seen Ashya

:10:18. > :10:21.since Saturday as they are in custody fighting extradition back to

:10:22. > :10:25.the UK. That's been criticised by more than 100,000 people who have

:10:26. > :10:29.signed a petition handed into Downing Street today calling for

:10:30. > :10:32.their release. Ashya's parents were arrested after the British

:10:33. > :10:36.authorities issued a European Arrest Warrant. But today, the Crown

:10:37. > :10:40.Prosecution Service said it was reviewing the evidence for that

:10:41. > :10:44.warrant and whether it's in the public interest to pursue it,

:10:45. > :10:47.opening up the possibility it may be withdrawn. The Deputy Prime Minister

:10:48. > :10:51.says he is one of those uncomfortable with the way the

:10:52. > :10:57.family have been treated. I personally think that throwing the

:10:58. > :11:01.full force of the law at Mr and Mrs King, who appear to be doing what

:11:02. > :11:07.they believe to be best for their own family, I don't think is an

:11:08. > :11:12.appropriate thing to do. That is for the police and the Crown Prosecution

:11:13. > :11:16.Service and others to decide. In a separate development, back here,

:11:17. > :11:20.where it all began last Thursday, Southampton General Hospital may now

:11:21. > :11:23.face legal action from the lawyer acting for Ashya's parents in

:11:24. > :11:33.connection with this case. This is what he said earlier. They are so,

:11:34. > :11:37.so sad, they are going to prepare legal demands against the hospital

:11:38. > :11:42.in Southampton. They never thought that they committed any crime in the

:11:43. > :11:47.United Kingdom. There's been no response from Southampton General to

:11:48. > :11:51.that. We understand that an internal investigation has been launched by

:11:52. > :11:55.the hospital into the handling of the Ashya King case.

:11:56. > :12:00.Duncan Kennedy, BBC News, Southampton.

:12:01. > :12:04.Our correspondent is outside the prison in Madrid where the couple

:12:05. > :12:06.are being held. Tom, is there anything that the authorities here

:12:07. > :12:09.in Britain could have done differently so that the family

:12:10. > :12:14.wouldn't have ended up in this situation? Well, we believe there

:12:15. > :12:19.was. What the Crown Prosecution Service could have used was

:12:20. > :12:23.something called mutual legal assistance. That could have been

:12:24. > :12:27.tantamount to the Spanish police just to interview Brett and Naghemeh

:12:28. > :12:31.King. What happened instead was that European Arrest Warrant was issued

:12:32. > :12:36.on Saturday afternoon. That set the wheels in motion for the arrest of

:12:37. > :12:38.the couple on Saturday night and the extradition hearing yesterday. The

:12:39. > :12:41.judge ruling that he wants more time to decide whether to grant the

:12:42. > :12:45.couple bail and that's why they are still, at the moment, in the prison

:12:46. > :12:50.behind me. Of course, events here in Spain could be overtaken by events

:12:51. > :12:54.in Britain. The Crown Prosecution Service investigating and reviewing

:12:55. > :12:59.the case of the King family and I understand from the High Court in

:13:00. > :13:03.Spain that if, and it is still if at this stage, if legal proceedings

:13:04. > :13:07.were to be dropped, they could be released from the prison behind me

:13:08. > :13:11.immediately. Tom, thank you very much.

:13:12. > :13:14.From this morning, every child in their first three years of primary

:13:15. > :13:18.school in England should be receiving a free school dinner every

:13:19. > :13:23.day. The Government says the vast majority, 98% of schools, will

:13:24. > :13:27.provide hot food. Councils say the scheme isn't being properly funded

:13:28. > :13:33.and that they are facing a ?25 million shortfall. John Maguire

:13:34. > :13:37.reports. A hot, school meal and this lunch

:13:38. > :13:42.time it's being served up free for all children in the first three

:13:43. > :13:47.years at English primaries and the idea is going down well. The

:13:48. > :13:50.children will get used to getting healthy meals, as we have in this

:13:51. > :13:53.school. It is a great start for them. Some kids feel it is unfair

:13:54. > :13:57.that some have to pay and some don't. If it is there for everybody,

:13:58. > :14:02.it makes it easier. Many head teachers have long been convinced by

:14:03. > :14:07.the benefits of school food. Those children that have a well-balanced,

:14:08. > :14:10.nutritional hot meal at lunch time do perform a lot better in the

:14:11. > :14:15.afternoon. It keeps their brains alert. At this school in London,

:14:16. > :14:21.they pride themselves in serving fresh, local ingredients. From now

:14:22. > :14:25.on, 1.9 million schoolchildren across England will receive a hot

:14:26. > :14:28.meal free of charge every day, that is for children in reception, Year 1

:14:29. > :14:31.and Year 2. is for children in reception, Year 1

:14:32. > :14:35.and It is costing the Government ?1.2 billion over the first two

:14:36. > :14:38.years. The Local Government Association says some councils are

:14:39. > :14:44.complaining of a shortfall in the funding they receive from Whitehall

:14:45. > :14:49.and that figure amounts to ?26 million. For parents, this will mean

:14:50. > :14:53.a saving per child of more than ?400 per year. The biggest challenge

:14:54. > :14:58.across the country has been in schools with no existing kitchens or

:14:59. > :15:02.in remote areas. Many have had to start from scratch and some councils

:15:03. > :15:08.have struggled to pay for the scheme. We reckon there is a ?25

:15:09. > :15:11.million shortfall in the bringing together of this programme, so

:15:12. > :15:16.actually a lot of local authorities and schools will be diverting money

:15:17. > :15:20.from other areas, important areas, to put into this programme. English

:15:21. > :15:26.schools are the first in the UK to adopt this policy. A hot meal every

:15:27. > :15:32.day for every infant is a bold promise and the Government says 98%

:15:33. > :15:33.of schools are ready, but can it be sustained? The proof will be in the

:15:34. > :15:49.pudding. John Maguire, BBC News. A former police officer has told the

:15:50. > :15:52.BBC that senior officers within South Yorkshire police failed to

:15:53. > :15:55.treat the problem of child abuse in Rotherham seriously enough.

:15:56. > :15:57.And still to come: Could cave Famous for football -

:15:58. > :16:06.and soon perhaps cricket? Plans to update the pavilion

:16:07. > :16:09.on Hackney Marshes. And will we enjoy more

:16:10. > :16:11.of the September sunshine? Scottish voters have

:16:12. > :16:24.until midnight tonight to register for the independence referendum

:16:25. > :16:26.on the 18th of September. This morning, just over

:16:27. > :16:30.a fortnight before the vote on the nation's future, both sides of

:16:31. > :16:55.the campaign were focusing on jobs. Hello. The yes campaign could

:16:56. > :16:58.believe that they could be on the verge of a different sort of

:16:59. > :17:11.history, having seen the latest opinion polls. The yes vote is now

:17:12. > :17:16.at 47%, and the no vote at 53%, according to YouGov. Here is a

:17:17. > :17:21.flavour of the BBC debate this morning in Dundee. With just over

:17:22. > :17:26.two weeks to go before the historic referendum on the future of

:17:27. > :17:36.Scotland, we live in Dundee. APPLAUSE

:17:37. > :17:41.I have spoken to GPs in England, patients' representatives. They are

:17:42. > :17:45.devastated by what is happening down there. Cancer services are headed

:17:46. > :17:53.out to private companies. Profit first, patients second, and that

:17:54. > :18:06.cannot be disputed by anybody. If you want to go home from hospital in

:18:07. > :18:13.a Tesco van in five years, you will vote no. The real crux of the matter

:18:14. > :18:15.is, what of the future? Not our future, that our children's future,

:18:16. > :18:18.as regards to nationalism. Although we are being told continually that

:18:19. > :18:21.it is not a vote for the SNP if we vote yes, let's be logical about it.

:18:22. > :18:25.The SNP really are the only ones in the position at the moment to put

:18:26. > :18:28.forward a government. As we have seen today, people here are very

:18:29. > :18:32.passionate voters. What I would like to know is, whatever the outcome of

:18:33. > :18:39.the referendum, what steps will be taken to unite such a divided

:18:40. > :18:42.nation's opinion afterwards? Who here feels they have been able to

:18:43. > :18:53.get straightforward facts and information? ALL: No!

:18:54. > :18:57.The reason we're here is because of the bickering on both sides. We are

:18:58. > :19:02.the votes that could swing your way or your way. But you are not

:19:03. > :19:06.convincing us, you are just arguing. We just want you to be upfront,

:19:07. > :19:15.honest, and then we can make the decision that is best for Scotland.

:19:16. > :19:19.I would like to be given a package -- I would liken it to being given a

:19:20. > :19:26.package on a plane saying, this may or may not contain a parachute, but

:19:27. > :19:29.jump anyway. Your vote can mean something in an independent

:19:30. > :19:34.Scotland. We are fairly represented there. Every single one of us will

:19:35. > :19:39.have a say. There is no doubt that people the

:19:40. > :19:43.length and breadth of Scotland are engaged in this campaign. In the

:19:44. > :19:48.last couple of weeks, then campaigns have been extremely busy. Alex

:19:49. > :19:50.Salmond was here with me a while ago, and Jim Murphy for the no

:19:51. > :19:57.campaign has been speaking in Edinburgh. Let's hear from both of

:19:58. > :20:00.them. We are seeing substantial movement of fellow citizens who had

:20:01. > :20:06.been voting no and are now voting yes. People don't like to see the

:20:07. > :20:15.Labour Party in bed with the Tories in this campaign. People are moving

:20:16. > :20:22.from don't know to yes. Polls, to go, but I am more worried over what

:20:23. > :20:25.currency Scotland would use if we are independent, who would pay for

:20:26. > :20:29.the pensions, and who would fund the enormous gap in public services?

:20:30. > :20:35.That is the sort of concerns that Scotland has, not any of these

:20:36. > :20:40.opinion polls. Jim Murphy and Alex Salmond. For some thoughts about the

:20:41. > :20:44.significance of the latest polls, we are joined from Edinburgh by Lorna

:20:45. > :20:48.Gordon, and here with me on the outskirts of St Andrews is James

:20:49. > :20:52.Cook. What do you make of it? What is interesting is, if you were to

:20:53. > :20:56.take a step act and look at this over the longer term, it is quite

:20:57. > :21:00.remarkable what the polls are showing now. For years and years in

:21:01. > :21:04.Scotland, there has been a solid majority, it appears, in favour of

:21:05. > :21:09.the union. A solid majority for the union. But it doesn't appear looking

:21:10. > :21:15.at the polls now that that solid majority exists any more. So what is

:25:27. > :25:39.correspondent, Rory Cellan-Jones. It is nothing more than huge banks

:25:40. > :25:42.of computers, most of them probably in America, where a lot of our

:25:43. > :25:47.information is stored. So if you put a photo on Facebook, it will then go

:25:48. > :25:50.and sit on Facebook's computers and be available to other people who

:25:51. > :25:54.want to see it, but it will be lodged on their computer as well as

:25:55. > :25:59.your own, and the question mark, as we use more of these services, is

:26:00. > :26:03.how secure are they? And what can people do to ensure that their

:26:04. > :26:07.accounts as a cure? It is mostly about password security, using the

:26:08. > :26:11.cleverest and most secure passwords you can think of. We still don't

:26:12. > :26:19.know what happened in this case, but it seems obvious that somehow the

:26:20. > :26:24.hacker got all the details of these celebrities' passwords and got into

:26:25. > :26:33.their accounts. What they are increasingly using all these Cloud

:26:42. > :26:44.Scientists think they may have found that Neanderthal man had

:26:45. > :26:48.Carvings were found in a cave on Gibraltar, and are thought to be

:26:49. > :27:00.They were thought to have been brutish and rather stupid, and

:27:01. > :27:02.inferior version of us, modern man. But this new discovery is

:27:03. > :27:09.contributing to a growing body of evidence that Neanderthals were

:27:10. > :27:14.quite clever and in many respects our equals. In a cave in Gibraltar,

:27:15. > :27:19.archaeologists have discovered a rock carving that they believe was

:27:20. > :27:23.deliberately made, 40,000 years ago. It looks like an early version of

:27:24. > :27:27.noughts and crosses. Researchers are confident it couldn't have been made

:27:28. > :27:32.accidentally. It required more than 300 strokes with a stone tool, but

:27:33. > :27:37.what can it mean? I think a lot of people will see us in this, quite

:27:38. > :27:41.possibly. It is geometric, but a lot of modern human art later has

:27:42. > :27:47.similar characteristics, has that kind of geometry to it. A lot of

:27:48. > :27:53.early artforms seem to have that. It is not as sophisticated as later

:27:54. > :27:58.cave art made by Homo sapiens. These are bison in grave to cave in Spain.

:27:59. > :28:02.That it does point to abstract thought and deliberate intention.

:28:07. > :28:11.meat in skin, and you cannot control the groove, you cannot do it. The

:28:18. > :28:20.that it is actually a map. Some researchers are not convinced, but

:28:21. > :28:24.those who found the grading are certain it is the first example

:28:25. > :28:30.anywhere in the world of Neanderthal art.

:28:31. > :28:47.Thank you very much. It is warm, but will it be sunny? Not so much. But

:28:48. > :28:51.if you do see some September sunshine over the next few days, the

:28:52. > :28:56.blue sky could mean those temperatures get up as high as 24

:28:57. > :28:58.Celsius. The satellite image today shows we have had a fair bit of

:28:59. > :29:03.sunshine across Wales in northern England, a lot of cloud in the far

:29:04. > :29:12.north-west and the southern counties of England. We will continue to see

:29:13. > :29:15.cloud bubbling up, so a little more across Wales and Northern Ireland

:29:16. > :29:21.this afternoon. We should hang on to sunny spells across eastern part of

:29:22. > :29:26.Scotland. Dole for much of Northern Ireland, but not cold. Dry and

:29:27. > :29:31.bright for much of northern England, more cloud spilling in into parts of

:29:32. > :29:37.East Anglia. The south-east could see the top amateur, 22 Celsius.

:29:38. > :29:42.Still a fair bit of cloud across southern England. But although the

:29:43. > :29:48.odd light shower could continue overnight, for most it is a dry

:29:49. > :29:52.night. If we keep clear skies, rural areas could drop into single figures

:29:53. > :29:58.tonight, but for most, in warm night. It will be another pretty

:29:59. > :30:02.warm day on Wednesday, again a fair bit of cloud around in the morning.

:30:03. > :30:05.Will be hard to say it is a clue where we will see the breaks in the

:30:06. > :30:12.cloud, but we should see breaks in the cloud a little. And where we see

:30:13. > :30:22.the sunshine, temperatures will be getting easily up to 20 Celsius. The

:30:23. > :30:24.dry theme continues because of the area of high pressure dominating

:30:25. > :30:27.across Scandinavia, bringing the breeze in a cross from the near

:30:28. > :30:32.continent, which could favour western areas for sunny spells.

:30:33. > :30:40.Generally again, a fair bit of cloud around, temperatures up to 20

:30:41. > :30:45.Celsius or more, up to 24 possible. And that is the theme as we continue

:30:46. > :30:48.through the end of the week, dry and warm, but we can't necessarily

:30:49. > :30:56.promised sunshine. A pretty good week if you are staying in this

:30:57. > :31:01.country, but it is not too pretty across the Mediterranean. A month's

:31:02. > :31:08.worth of rain has fallen in Gibraltar. More on this on the

:31:09. > :31:16.website. So, best to stay at home! Now a reminder
