:00:00. > :00:00.An unexpected fall in inflation, but prices are still rising

:00:07. > :00:14.It's fallen to 2.6% - the first time it's fallen

:00:15. > :00:15.since last October, but its still higher

:00:16. > :00:20.We'll ask what it means for living standards.

:00:21. > :00:26.The Chief Inspector of Prisons says youth custody centres in England

:00:27. > :00:31.and Wales are so unsafe that a tragedy is inevitable.

:00:32. > :00:35.Improvements in life expectancy almost grind to a halt in England -

:00:36. > :00:41.a leading health academic says austerity may be having an impact.

:01:00. > :01:06.Not just a thing of the past - there are new calls

:01:07. > :01:10.for a crackdown on adverts that portray sexist stereotypes.

:01:11. > :01:13.And coming up in the sport on BBC News: Up to number four

:01:19. > :01:43.Good afternoon and welcome to the BBC News at One.

:01:44. > :01:47.The rate of inflation slowed unexpectedly last month,

:01:48. > :01:54.Consumer price inflation, the rate at which the price of goods

:01:55. > :01:57.and services bought by households rise or fall, stood at 2.6% in June,

:01:58. > :02:05.It's the first fall since October last year, and is thought to be

:02:06. > :02:07.largely a result of lower petrol and diesel prices.

:02:08. > :02:13.Our economics correspondent Andy Verity reports.

:02:14. > :02:16.This carpet factory in Kidderminster has been stepping up production

:02:17. > :02:18.to meet growing demand, with orders up 30%

:02:19. > :02:26.The devaluation of the pound before and after the Brexit vote pushed up

:02:27. > :02:29.the cost of importing wool to make the yarn that goes into its carpets.

:02:30. > :02:31.With higher wage costs, it can't trim much

:02:32. > :02:41.So it's moved its product upmarket, and convinced retailers it's worth

:02:42. > :02:42.paying a little bit more for its designs.

:02:43. > :02:46.We've increased prices by around 2% this year.

:02:47. > :02:48.And that's been a natural consequence of increased wage costs,

:02:49. > :02:58.We have had to pass that on to our customers.

:02:59. > :03:05.By and large, customers don't like price increases in a time

:03:06. > :03:07.of economic instability, I suppose, the uncertainty that

:03:08. > :03:11.But there's also an understanding that that has to take place.

:03:12. > :03:13.Higher costs of imported raw materials caused by the drop

:03:14. > :03:17.in the pound's value is still feeding through to prices.

:03:18. > :03:19.11 months ago, the Bank of England's big fear

:03:20. > :03:22.wasn't too much inflation, but too little.

:03:23. > :03:25.And it cut interest rates to their lowest ever level.

:03:26. > :03:28.But now that's changed, there are more voices calling

:03:29. > :03:30.for interest rates to return from emergency levels back up

:03:31. > :03:35.The fear now is that inflation isn't temporary,

:03:36. > :03:43.Those voices will be a little quieter now that the figures have

:03:44. > :03:47.revealed some relief from rising inflation last month.

:03:48. > :03:49.Between May and June, furniture, furnishings,

:03:50. > :03:53.But recreation - everything from concerts

:03:54. > :03:56.to games and hobbies - dropped 0.1%.

:03:57. > :04:02.And fuel prices fell back on the month by 1.1%.

:04:03. > :04:05.It looks as if inflation might be dampened a bit by softer fuel price

:04:06. > :04:13.But underlying price pressures from post-Brexit falls

:04:14. > :04:16.in Sterling are still there, and they look set to continue

:04:17. > :04:19.to push inflation up a bit further as we move towards the end

:04:20. > :04:23.For now, the pressure on the Bank of England to tame

:04:24. > :04:24.inflation by raising interest rates has lessened.

:04:25. > :04:27.In the City, they're still betting a rise in interest

:04:28. > :04:29.rates will be needed, but not until next March.

:04:30. > :04:30.Andy Verity, BBC News, Kidderminster.

:04:31. > :04:37.Our business editor Simon Jack is here.

:04:38. > :04:43.Does this evenings for consumers somewhat? A little bit, but we

:04:44. > :04:47.should make no mistake. Wages are still going up less quickly than

:04:48. > :04:54.prices are so the squeeze is still on. At what is happening here is

:04:55. > :04:59.that this inflationary pressure we have seen has accelerated a little

:05:00. > :05:03.bit. It all started after the Brexit vote, when we saw the pound fall

:05:04. > :05:06.which meant that all important goods went up very sharply in price.

:05:07. > :05:12.Imagine a snake swallowing a large animal. It takes its time to get

:05:13. > :05:15.down the system. The question is now we have seen this goal down, does

:05:16. > :05:20.this mean that inflation has peaked and that bulge in prices has worked

:05:21. > :05:23.its way out of the system? It may have, but we may still have some

:05:24. > :05:28.pressure so it is not impossible that prices may go up again. But as

:05:29. > :05:31.Andy said, the Bank of England, who watch inflation very carefully, that

:05:32. > :05:36.is their main job, were thinking that maybe it is time to put up

:05:37. > :05:40.interest rates. They have been very reluctant to do that when real

:05:41. > :05:43.incomes are falling. You have Brexit uncertainty and what have you. They

:05:44. > :05:47.will be looking for excuses not to do that and they may have found just

:05:48. > :05:51.enough to put that off. Although the squeeze on incomes is still very

:05:52. > :05:56.much on, the interest rise looks off. All right, thanks for now.

:05:57. > :05:59.Theresa May has told Conservative MPs to end what she called

:06:00. > :06:01.the 'backbiting' over disagreements within the party.

:06:02. > :06:04.At a reception in the Commons last night, the Prime Minister warned

:06:05. > :06:06.that the alternative to her in Number 10

:06:07. > :06:09.At Cabinet this morning, Mrs May is believed to have

:06:10. > :06:11.reminded ministers keep their discussions private.

:06:12. > :06:19.Our assistant political editor Norman Smith is in Westminster.

:06:20. > :06:30.How much do we know then about what cabinet ministers were pulled this

:06:31. > :06:33.morning? We know when you face a breakdown in cabinet discipline such

:06:34. > :06:37.as Theresa May has faced, it is always going to be a test of your

:06:38. > :06:41.authority because it raises questions about how much grip you

:06:42. > :06:46.have and if you work in a strong position as Prime Minister then you

:06:47. > :06:50.can act as a vengeful slayer and sack the ministerial miscreants, or

:06:51. > :06:55.if you want to die let down, you can bang the table and give them the

:06:56. > :06:58.death I stare and loyalty. Theresa May has had to significantly dial it

:06:59. > :07:05.down because of her weakened position. Today she seemed to

:07:06. > :07:08.adopted the position of a disapproving parents, expressing her

:07:09. > :07:13.disappointment that ministers had failed to live up to their

:07:14. > :07:16.responsibilities, they haven't set in example to the country in terms

:07:17. > :07:23.of showing unity. Then taking advantage of her move to introduce a

:07:24. > :07:28.more open, discursive style of cabinet. We'll be reprimand work?

:07:29. > :07:32.Well, perhaps not, given the personal and political animosity in

:07:33. > :07:36.the cabinet, many of them directed at the Chancellor, who incidentally

:07:37. > :07:42.in the comments just a short time ago was looking decidedly perky,

:07:43. > :07:49.telling MPs, "I am not enfeebled." As for Theresa May, I think I hope

:07:50. > :07:53.is not so much that the reprimand will work, but that time will come

:07:54. > :07:58.to her rescue. The ministers will go will wait for the break and then

:07:59. > :08:00.come back in a better mood. Norman, thank you. Norman Smith at

:08:01. > :08:02.Westminster. The Chief Inspector of Prisons has

:08:03. > :08:05.warned that youth custody centres in England and Wales are so unsafe

:08:06. > :08:08.that a tragedy is inevitable. Peter Clarke said there'd been such

:08:09. > :08:10.a decline in standards that he'd written to ministers

:08:11. > :08:12.earlier this year. Launching his annual report,

:08:13. > :08:17.Mr Clarke said he hadn't inspected a single establishment

:08:18. > :08:19.where it was safe Our home affairs correspondent

:08:20. > :08:33.Danny Shaw is here. Very strong words here, Danny.

:08:34. > :08:37.Strong findings in this report. He was so concerned that he wrote to

:08:38. > :08:40.Philip Lee, the minister, in February, and said that something

:08:41. > :08:44.has to be done about this. He is extremely worried about levels of

:08:45. > :08:47.violence. He said there is a kind of vicious circle in these young

:08:48. > :08:52.offender institutions and secure training centres, whereby a young

:08:53. > :08:56.boy is violent, they then have restrictions placed on what they can

:08:57. > :09:00.do. Perhaps they are locked in their room for longer and cannot do

:09:01. > :09:03.various activities. Security measures are put into place. That

:09:04. > :09:07.leads to them being more frustrated, which in turn leads to more

:09:08. > :09:11.violence. He said some of these places just cannot break out of that

:09:12. > :09:15.issue circle. And so what are the Government saying about that in

:09:16. > :09:19.response to his comments? Well, the Government has put into place a new

:09:20. > :09:23.service dedicated for youth custody services and they hope that will

:09:24. > :09:28.drive improvements. They are also going to boost staffing levels by

:09:29. > :09:32.20%. There are staff shortages right across the prison estate which has

:09:33. > :09:35.affected the way that services are run and impacted on the ability of

:09:36. > :09:39.prisoners to get out of their cell and do constructive activities and

:09:40. > :09:42.we are seeing that in the adult jails as well as with young

:09:43. > :09:45.offenders. All right, Danny. Thank you for now.

:09:46. > :09:50.A leading health academic has warned that improvements in life

:09:51. > :09:52.expectancy have almost 'ground to a halt' in England.

:09:53. > :09:54.Professor Sir Michael Marmot, from University College London,

:09:55. > :09:57.says the rate of increase, which has been rising for decades,

:09:58. > :10:01.He says it is entirely possible that austerity is affecting

:10:02. > :10:05.how long people live, but the government says its policies

:10:06. > :10:13.aren't responsible, as Sara Smith explains.

:10:14. > :10:21.For years, we have been getting, well, older. For a century, average

:10:22. > :10:27.life expectancy has been rising. In England, it is now 83 for women and

:10:28. > :10:31.73 for men. But the author of a study at the Institute for health

:10:32. > :10:35.Equity says he is deeply concerned that increases have now levelled off

:10:36. > :10:39.and while he can't make any firm conclusions, what he describes as

:10:40. > :10:44.miserly health and social care spending could be contributing. It

:10:45. > :10:47.is entirely possible and I think it is urgent that we try and sort that

:10:48. > :10:54.out, but we try and work out if it has, and if it has, it is one more

:10:55. > :10:57.argument why we should be more generous in our social expenditure

:10:58. > :11:03.if we want to address the quality of life of older people and if we want

:11:04. > :11:09.to address inequalities in health at all ages. Historically, for every

:11:10. > :11:13.five years later and you were born, you would expect a year longer life

:11:14. > :11:19.span. It was every three and a half years for men. But since 2010, like

:11:20. > :11:23.expectancy only increases a year every ten years for women and every

:11:24. > :11:30.six for men. Care for older people was particularly pressing, said Prof

:11:31. > :11:35.Michael Marmot, because the increase in those with dementia, you would

:11:36. > :11:39.need more, not less, funding. When this woman's father developed the

:11:40. > :11:44.disease, she said they struggled to get the support they needed to look

:11:45. > :11:48.after him properly. By the time we started to make headway to in

:11:49. > :11:51.looking after with him and we put together a package, unfortunately

:11:52. > :11:55.his condition deteriorated so rapidly that he becoming white sick

:11:56. > :11:59.and was admitted to hospital. People are dying in a way that they should

:12:00. > :12:03.not need to because of that lack of support. We are an affluent country

:12:04. > :12:06.and we should be able to support people with dementia as well as we

:12:07. > :12:10.support people with cancer or heart disease. We're not doing it and it

:12:11. > :12:13.is about time we started to provide that support. But the Department of

:12:14. > :12:18.Health says more money is going into the NHS and social care and life

:12:19. > :12:25.expectancy continues to rise. Sarah Smith, BBC News.

:12:26. > :12:28.A BBC investigation has found that only a fraction of the money donated

:12:29. > :12:30.to the Grenfell Tower fire appeal has so far reached survivors,

:12:31. > :12:34.Nearly ?20 million has been raised, and 40,000 boxes

:12:35. > :12:38.But only half a million pounds of that has so far been

:12:48. > :12:50.Donations in the green bags will be sold in Red Cross shops.

:12:51. > :12:58.Brand-new items will go straight back to survivors of the fire,

:12:59. > :13:04.It's about turning all of the different donations

:13:05. > :13:05.we've had into cash, which automatically will

:13:06. > :13:14.To appreciate the scale of donations, you have to fly

:13:15. > :13:17.through this London warehouse a week after the fire.

:13:18. > :13:20.It's estimated 174 tonnes of stuff was donated.

:13:21. > :13:27.And ten tonnes has gone back to the victims.

:13:28. > :13:32.No amount of money is enough for the loved ones of those who died.

:13:33. > :13:35.Research by the BBC shows that several appeals and charities have

:13:36. > :13:49.Some question why only a small part of that has made it through.

:13:50. > :13:51.You feel that it's betraying the public's generosity,

:13:52. > :13:55.because they gave money to help directly those who are affected.

:13:56. > :14:02.And they're not too clear that it's happening,

:14:03. > :14:13.and organisations instead of individuals are getting

:14:26. > :14:29.Thelma Stober lost her left foot in the London 7/7 bombings.

:14:30. > :14:30.She received money donated by the public.

:14:31. > :14:36.A lot of people are suffering from post-traumatic stress.

:14:37. > :14:41.You are trying to understand what has happened, the implications

:14:42. > :14:43.for your life going forward - it's changed forever.

:14:44. > :14:46.It took 15 months to distribute all of the money raised

:14:47. > :14:48.for victims of those attacks like Thelma.

:14:49. > :14:53.Thelma is now a trustee of the London Emergency Trust.

:17:53. > :17:54.But the President's executive orders have frequently been blocked

:17:55. > :18:02.It was just last month that Mr Trump made another huge announcement.

:18:03. > :18:15.The United States will withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord...

:18:16. > :18:20.But once again, he's come under intense pressure to change his mind,

:18:21. > :18:23.from the international community and back home.

:18:50. > :18:56.And of course, there's the other growing crisis looming over the

:18:57. > :18:59.administration - the scandal over Russia's interference in the

:19:00. > :19:01.presidential election, allegedly to help Mr Trump reach the White House.

:19:02. > :19:05.Let's go live now to Washington and speak

:19:06. > :19:10.to our correspondent, Gary O'Donoghue.

:19:11. > :19:18.What does this mean specifically for health care now, Gary? Well, it

:19:19. > :19:22.means quite simply for the time being it's done. They don't have the

:19:23. > :19:27.muscle, they don't have the maths, they don't have the votes to get

:19:28. > :19:30.it... To getting new system put in place. Now, what the leader of the

:19:31. > :19:35.Senate, Mitch McConnell, is proposing, is a straight up vote in

:19:36. > :19:42.the coming weeks to repeal Obamacare with a sort of two-year timetable,

:19:43. > :19:46.two-year use on it, if you like. To try and then work out with the

:19:47. > :19:49.Democrats perhaps of those... Is something to replace it, not

:19:50. > :19:53.absolutely clear that would work either. Donald Trump in the last few

:19:54. > :19:57.minutes tweeting that he thinks that Obamacare should be allowed to fail

:19:58. > :20:01.and that then people can come together to create a new health care

:20:02. > :20:06.plan, seemingly suggesting that you should let the system kind of fall

:20:07. > :20:10.apart, which I think would be pretty unacceptable to a lot of people in

:20:11. > :20:16.Congress and in this country generally. As things stand, this

:20:17. > :20:21.signature central pledge of the Trump campaign to repeal and replace

:20:22. > :20:25.Obamacare has fallen, and they will have to focus on other things, like

:20:26. > :20:29.the tax reforms and the infrastructure plans, where they

:21:04. > :21:07.are calling David for legal reasons, has a condition known as PKU, which

:21:08. > :21:14.means that he cannot metabolise protein. That means he is limited to

:21:15. > :21:18.12 grams of protein per day. To put that into context, a slice of bread

:21:19. > :21:22.has four grams of protein in it. In addition to that he has severe

:21:23. > :21:25.autism, so he simply doesn't understand that he can't eat the

:21:26. > :21:28.foods that he wants. I spoke to David's father and asked him about

:21:29. > :21:30.the challenges of dealing with David.

:21:31. > :21:32.He'll sometimes run into a room if we're eating,

:21:33. > :21:34.and he will literally take food off our plates.

:21:35. > :21:36.He doesn't realise that he can't have certain things.

:21:37. > :21:39.When our son gets upset, he really gets upset.

:21:40. > :21:40.He's physical with us, physical with his siblings.

:21:41. > :21:43.You know, he'll break things in the house.

:21:44. > :22:01.Now, David's NHS consultant wants him to have a drug which would help

:22:02. > :22:07.him metabolise protein, and allow him to have more of it, but it's

:22:08. > :22:10.very expensive, ?100 per day, and NHS England has turned down the

:22:11. > :22:13.request for funding for that drug on the basis that it is not

:22:14. > :22:16.cost-effective or clinically effective in the long term. Now,

:22:17. > :22:21.today that decision is being challenged here at the High Court.

:22:22. > :22:26.It's being argued that decision is led to a rational and B doesn't take

:22:27. > :22:31.into account the welfare, of the child. If that latter part of the

:22:32. > :22:35.claims exceeds it means that the NHS will have to put the welfare of the

:22:36. > :22:38.child at the centre of decision-making on whether those

:22:39. > :22:41.children get these very expensive drugs, that could have a huge cost

:22:42. > :22:45.implication, but it could mean that a lot more children get the drugs

:22:46. > :22:47.that they and their parents so desperately want. Thanks, Clive

:23:34. > :23:36.helicopter might be a familiar sight in the skies of the city or indeed

:23:37. > :23:41.the county of South Yorkshire. This case concerns the use of that

:23:42. > :23:45.helicopter on our trip occasions. Waterboarded more accurately,

:23:46. > :23:50.perhaps it involves the of that helicopter -- ought to put it more

:23:51. > :23:54.accurately. What did they do? The jury was shown by three videos from

:23:55. > :23:58.the powerful camera on the nose of that helicopter, which was used as

:23:59. > :24:03.part of police surveillance work. The first surveillance video showed

:24:04. > :24:06.a woman sunbathing naked in her garden in Rotherham. The second

:24:07. > :24:11.showed a couple of naturist sitting outside a caravan near Doncaster.

:24:12. > :24:14.The third showed a couple having sex on the patio of their home in South

:24:15. > :24:17.Yorkshire. They were willing participants, they knew they were

:24:21. > :24:25.the time, Adrian Pogmore. On the fourth video showed another woman

:24:26. > :24:29.sunbathing dated in their garden in Rotherham. The jury were told this

:25:05. > :25:07.We can probably all think of adverts that portray women as always

:25:08. > :25:09.in the kitchen or men failing at simple household tasks.

:25:10. > :25:11.Well, now the Advertising Standards Authority is to crack

:25:12. > :25:13.down on ads that feature stereotypical gender roles.

:25:14. > :25:16.A review carried out by the ASA has suggested that such

:25:17. > :25:18.commercials have a cost - for the individual,

:26:11. > :26:13.role to tidy up after her family who trashed the house,

:26:14. > :26:16.We're worried about that sort of depiction.

:26:17. > :26:18.Similarly, ads that mock men for being hopeless at performing

:26:30. > :26:33.The ASA's concerns are about stereotypes or ads that pressurise

:26:40. > :26:42.Of course, things have changed since the era that produced this.

:27:03. > :27:05.One of the arguments is that ads are too orientated towards making

:27:22. > :27:25.And some feel the ASA's beginning to stray into politics.

:27:26. > :27:27.Its primary role is to ensure that advertisers aren't

:27:34. > :27:36.that they randomly decide they don't like.

:27:37. > :27:41.And this is just an organisation who is trying to put the left-wing

:30:31. > :30:34.afternoon. Looking at yesterday's temperatures, the high temperatures

:30:35. > :30:39.were in the east and south. High pressure in charge. We still have a

:30:40. > :30:42.high pressure with us today. However, it has moved further

:30:43. > :30:45.eastwards and allowed the winds to change direction to more south

:30:46. > :30:48.easily, pushing the highest temperatures this afternoon into the

:30:49. > :30:54.western side of the country. 27 degrees or so for parts of West and

:30:55. > :30:58.Wales into north-west England. A warm day for western Scotland.

:30:59. > :31:01.Eastern Scotland and England will be a few degrees, with the onshore

:31:02. > :31:07.winds. However, there is a storm brewing. This cloud is a type of

:31:08. > :31:10.cloud you often see before the arrival of thunderstorms in

:31:11. > :31:14.summertime. Here are those storms moving up across the English

:31:15. > :31:18.Channel. They have arrived over the last hour across parts of south-west

:31:19. > :31:22.England. Devon and Cornwall and probably Dorset will see the first

:31:23. > :31:27.batch of storms. Otherwise, a fine and sunny day. Feeling very warm if

:31:28. > :31:31.not hot. Those storms will become more widespread this evening and

:31:32. > :31:40.overnight. We may well see one moving straight across the London

:31:41. > :31:42.area at about 10pm or so. It could be quite spectacular. But some of

:31:43. > :31:45.these thunderstorms could bring torrential rain, perhaps half a

:31:46. > :31:46.month's worth or more in a couple of hours, bringing the risk of

:31:47. > :31:51.localised flooding, lots of lightning around as well. That could

:31:52. > :31:55.cause disruption to powers of lies and maybe affect transport. It will

:31:56. > :32:01.be a warm and muggy night in the south. And we are breaks journey

:32:02. > :32:06.northwards through the day. Easing off for a time. -- thundery

:32:07. > :32:09.outbreaks. We could see further storms across parts of Wales and
