A review of building regulations,
following the Grenfell Tower fire, | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
says the current system isn't
fit for purpose. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:12 | |
The report's author says
she was "shocked" by some | 0:00:12 | 0:00:17 | |
of the practices she saw
and says there needs to be | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
a change in culture -
to put safety first. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:23 | |
What that report says
is that the current system | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
and that there is a need for a major
overhaul of the system. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
Also this lunchtime. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
The Iranian refugee
murdered by his neighbour - | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
a review finds the police
and council showed | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
institutional racism
in the years before his death. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:48 | |
Absolutely shocking and devastating.
Especially as a family if these | 0:00:48 | 0:00:54 | |
things happen, it's just
unacceptable. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
A man has been arrested

Good afternoon and welcome
to the BBC News at One. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:00 | |
A review of fire and
building regulations, | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
following the Grenfell Tower fire,
says the current system | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
isn't fit for purpose,
and a culture change is required | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
to ensure that safety
is prioritised over cost. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
Dame Judith Hackitt, in her interim
review for the government, | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
makes a series of recommendations
to simplify the rules and change | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
the way they are overseen. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
She says she's been shocked by some
of the practices she's heard about. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
Here's our Home Affairs
Correspondent Tom Symonds. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:32 | |
Grenfell Tower and that horrifying
loss of life demonstrated for all to | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
see, that something had gone badly
wrong with fire safety. But the | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
scale of that only became clear in
the weeks that followed. Confidence | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
in the safety of public housing was
left in pieces, bits of buildings | 0:02:42 | 0:02:47 | |
had to be removed because no-one was
sure of the risk. Today's report is | 0:02:47 | 0:02:52 | |
clear - the rules and the way they
work in practice are not fit for | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
purpose. Too complex, too easy to
get around. My aim for the future is | 0:02:56 | 0:03:04 | |
to create a much simpler and more
straightforward system that will be | 0:03:04 | 0:03:09 | |
easier for people to follow. But
that needs to be reinforced with a | 0:03:09 | 0:03:15 | |
number of changes in behaviour which
will include a major culture change | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
across all of the players in this.
Here is the main problem - when | 0:03:19 | 0:03:24 | |
reclading a tower like Grenfell,
designers and builders only had one | 0:03:24 | 0:03:29 | |
strict rule - don't do anything
which might allow a fire to spread. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:33 | |
But there is a mass of documents
setting out how that might be | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
achieved and plenty of different
ways to maintain safety. Our view is | 0:03:37 | 0:03:42 | |
this has opened up all sorts of
ambiguities, loopholes and | 0:03:42 | 0:03:48 | |
unintended consequences. A concrete
example is, there is a complex view | 0:03:48 | 0:03:55 | |
on combustibility. We should be
using noncombustible materials. He | 0:03:55 | 0:04:00 | |
and others in the industry believe
today's report at this early | 0:04:00 | 0:04:04 | |
opportunity should have recommended
that only materials which don't burn | 0:04:04 | 0:04:08 | |
be used on tower blocks. It's by far
the biggest problem, if the guidance | 0:04:08 | 0:04:13 | |
back in 1999 had changed, we
wouldn't even be talking about fire | 0:04:13 | 0:04:19 | |
risk assessments and building
control assessments and | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
responsibility because we would
probably never have had a disaster | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
like this. Dame Judith says in the
six months following the fire, she's | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
been shocked by some of the
practices she's learned about in the | 0:04:30 | 0:04:36 | |
industry. She'll make
recommendations next spring. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:41 | |
Tom Symonds joins me. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
What might we expect to come next
year? We'll see a much clearer set | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
of rules. As I said in the report,
there is really only one rule which | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
the regulations set out in these
circumstances which simply says you | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
shouldn't allow anything that might
result in a fire which is clearly | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
not very helpful. Dame Judith says
in her report that the rules are so | 0:04:58 | 0:05:03 | |
complicated or the guidance is, that
she had to spend a lot of time | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
mapping out how they work in
practice, so you can imagine how the | 0:05:06 | 0:05:11 | |
industry might regard that. I think
what she's going to want is a change | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
in fire safety and building design
and refurbishment. This is along the | 0:05:14 | 0:05:18 | |
lines of the health and safety
changes we have seen in the last 20 | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
years or so, for example the huge
amount of health and safety rules | 0:05:21 | 0:05:25 | |
about working in construction sites,
that sort of thing. I think she's | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
going to be asking for something of
that scale. The industry says that | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
is badly needed because even the
Government and the industry have had | 0:05:32 | 0:05:35 | |
a bit of a disagreement about what
the rules are, this issue about | 0:05:35 | 0:05:41 | |
whether limited combustibility
cladding can be used. The Government | 0:05:41 | 0:05:43 | |
says the rules say it can't. The
industry says, well for years you | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
have been saying if we do certain
things it can, so all of that has to | 0:05:46 | 0:05:50 | |
be sorted out, and as we heard
there, the report is due in the | 0:05:50 | 0:05:53 | |
spring. Thank you. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
A report has found institutional
racism in the case of an Iranian | 0:05:56 | 0:06:00 | |
refugee who was murdered
by a neighbour in Bristol in 2013. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
The report by the Safer
Bristol Partnership says | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
Avon and Somerset Police
and Bristol City Council repeatedly | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
sided with the abusers
of Bijan Ebrahimi, who was beaten | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
to death and his body set on fire,
after he was wrongly accused | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
of being a paedophile. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
One man is serving a life sentence
for Mr Ebrahimi's murder, | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
and two police officers
were jailed for misconduct. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
Jon Kay has been talking
to Bijan Ebrahimi's family, | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
and sent us this report. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
Bijan Ebrahimi came
to Britain for safety. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
But four years ago, the refugee
from Iran was brutally beaten | 0:06:36 | 0:06:40 | |
to death and his body set on fire. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:44 | |
Don't you dare take
pictures of me, all right? | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
This is the neighbour
who killed him, Lee James, | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
now serving life for murder. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
Today's report says that
although the fatal attack could not | 0:06:52 | 0:06:57 | |
have been predicted,
there were warning signs | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
that the police and council
should have spotted. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
Again and again, Bijan went
to the authorities claiming he had | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
been abused and attacked,
sometimes he said, | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
because of his race. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:09 | |
He made reports about different
people in different places | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
over several years. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
But today's report said
he was treated as a nuisance, | 0:07:14 | 0:07:18 | |
with police and council staff often
believing the people | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
he was complaining about
rather than helping him. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
Absolutely shocking and disgusting. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:25 | |
Now, his sisters have been told
that there was a collective failure | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
by Avon and Somerset police
and Bristol City Council | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
which amounted to institutional
racism and discrimination. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
We feel angry,
disappointed, shocking. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
These are not the words we should
hear in this day and age. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
You don't want to see and you don't
want to hear any more about this, | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
this has been dealt with so many
times before, and saying this | 0:07:45 | 0:07:52 | |
is happening again is shocking. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:53 | |
Very sad and we are very
angry as my sister says, | 0:07:53 | 0:07:57 | |
and it is very shocking
and upsetting as a family. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
Today's report says no
individual members of staff | 0:07:59 | 0:08:03 | |
here at Bristol City Council or Avon
and Somerset police were | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
intentionally racist themselves. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
But it says both organisations had
an ingrained view of Bijan Ebrahimi | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
which affected the way
they treated him. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
And that he did not get the support
or the level of service | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
that he should have received. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
The phrase institutional racism
was used in the notorious case | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
of Stephen Lawrence nearly
20 years ago. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
And now it appears again
in an official report. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
It is a word that is rarely
used, it is a finding | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
that is rarely found. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
Because one would hope that
institutional racism | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
is not a common problem,
that the family's concern | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
in fact is it is much more
common than it is found. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
Last year, two members of police
staff were jailed for misconduct. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
The force apologised
to the Ebrahimi family then, | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
and today Avon and Somerset police
reiterated that apology, | 0:08:51 | 0:08:55 | |
along with the council,
they have accepted the latest | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
report in full. | 0:08:58 | 0:08:59 | |
John Kay, BBC news, Bristol. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:04 | |
Our home editor Mark Easton is here. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
It is pretty desperate, Mark, that
we are using that phrase again in | 0:09:09 | 0:09:13 | |
2017? It's certainly a very
troubling phrase. Institutional | 0:09:13 | 0:09:20 | |
racism, the fact they believe it
played a part in Mr Ebrahimi's death | 0:09:20 | 0:09:24 | |
makes it more so. It's a complicated
concept. In this case, the inquiry | 0:09:24 | 0:09:29 | |
said there was no evidence that any
police officer or council official | 0:09:29 | 0:09:33 | |
intentionally behaved in a racist
manner, neither that their policies | 0:09:33 | 0:09:38 | |
and procedures in either
organisation were in any Weiwei | 0:09:38 | 0:09:42 | |
racist but the definition of
institutional racism was laid out in | 0:09:42 | 0:09:47 | |
the McPherson Report after the
Stephen Lawrence inquiry, includes | 0:09:47 | 0:09:51 | |
attitudes in behaviour which amount
to behaviour through | 0:09:51 | 0:09:57 | |
thoughtlessness, unwitting and
ignorance. It's shocking we are | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
still using that phrase of almost 25
years since Stephen Lawrence's | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
murder. It's a reminder also of how
hard it is to change the deep-seated | 0:10:03 | 0:10:09 | |
hidden attitudes and prejudices from
affecting the way professionals deal | 0:10:09 | 0:10:13 | |
with situations. There are
recommendations in the report to | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
change oversight checks in the
system to try to prevent that | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
happening and clearly for Mr
Ebrahimi's family, the only solace | 0:10:19 | 0:10:24 | |
there can be after this tragedy is
that somehow those kind of mistakes | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
won't happen again. Thank you. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
Police in Lebanon have arrested
a man in connection with the murder | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
of a British embassy
worker in Beirut. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
The body of Rebecca Dykes,
who was 30, was found by the side | 0:10:36 | 0:10:40 | |
of a motorway on Saturday the day
she was due to fly back | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
to Britain for Christmas. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:44 | |
From Beirut, Martin
Patience reports. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
She's been described as a bright
star, someone who cared deeply for | 0:10:49 | 0:10:54 | |
others, while working on the
humanitarian front line. Rebecca | 0:10:54 | 0:10:59 | |
Dykes was helping Lebanon cope with
the influx of Syrian refugees. On | 0:10:59 | 0:11:05 | |
Friday night, Rebecca came to this
bar behind me, she was attending | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
leaving drinks for a colleague. She
was relatively new in the city. This | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
was an opportunity to meet new
people. Shortly after Midnight, she | 0:11:12 | 0:11:18 | |
left the bar and apparently got into
a taxi. It was that decision that | 0:11:18 | 0:11:23 | |
cost her her life. Her body was
found dumped close to a motorway. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:29 | |
Police say she was strangled. A taxi
driver has now been arrested in | 0:11:29 | 0:11:34 | |
connection with her murder. Josy
planned to be at the bar that night | 0:11:34 | 0:11:41 | |
but couldn't go because of work.
It's crazy because all of my friends | 0:11:41 | 0:11:45 | |
were there. The idea that it could
have been anyone that left the bar | 0:11:45 | 0:11:49 | |
that that night, I mean we all drink
in this area and go out in this | 0:11:49 | 0:11:53 | |
neighbourhood which is usually very,
very safe. So we are all just deeply | 0:11:53 | 0:12:01 | |
saddened that one of our friends
left by herself and didn't come | 0:12:01 | 0:12:03 | |
back. On Twitter, the British
Ambassador Hugo Shorter wrote: | 0:12:03 | 0:12:12 | |
Rebecca was said to be thrilled
about working in Lebanon and | 0:12:21 | 0:12:25 | |
colleagues said she made a real
impact before her life was cut | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
short. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
Police in Birmingham are continuing
to appeal for witnesses, | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
after a crash which left six people
dead in the city | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
centre at the weekend. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
Crash investigators are trying
to piece together what caused | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
the pile-up, in the early hours
of Sunday morning. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
Our correspondent
Emma Thomas reports. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
It was 1:00am on the penultimate
weekend before Christmas, | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
when emergency services were called
to an horrific scene. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
Six vehicles and 13 people
caught in a collision, | 0:12:57 | 0:13:01 | |
the impact of which left a black
taxi cab on its side and produced | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
a sound so powerful it awoke
people living nearby. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
40 firefighters and specially
trained paramedics tried | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
to save the victims,
but five people were confirmed dead | 0:13:12 | 0:13:17 | |
at the scene, a sixth
died later in hospital, | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
and a seventh remains
in critical condition. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
The first victim to be named
is Imtiaz Mohammed, the taxi driver. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
A 33-year-old father of six,
his youngest daughter | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
marks her fourth birthday today. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:32 | |
Both his passengers,
a man and woman, also died. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:34 | |
He told his wife, it was to be his
last fare of the shift | 0:13:34 | 0:13:38 | |
and that he would be home soon. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:41 | |
The three other men who were killed,
all travelling in the same car. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:45 | |
He was a great person,
a remarkable boy, very friendly, | 0:13:45 | 0:13:49 | |
very sweet, with everyone. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:54 | |
Everyone, with friends,
in the street, no one | 0:13:54 | 0:14:01 | |
complained from him. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:07 | |
Flowers adorn this busy
city underpass today. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
As the investigation continues,
West Midlands Police asked people | 0:14:09 | 0:14:14 | |
who may have gathered footage
of the aftermath of the crash not | 0:14:14 | 0:14:18 | |
to share the distressing
images on social media, | 0:14:18 | 0:14:22 | |
but send them to police to help
officers establish the facts of this | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
crash which claimed the lives
of six people. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:31 | |
The road was closed for several
hours yesterday to allow | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
investigation work. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
This busy dual carriageway,
subject to a 40 mph speed limit, | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
and Birmingham City Council,
said it had been gritted | 0:14:40 | 0:14:45 | |
in the hours before the crash due
to freezing temperatures. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
As police piece together
the cause of the collision, | 0:14:47 | 0:14:52 | |
families grieve the loss of loved
ones killed the week | 0:14:52 | 0:14:55 | |
before Christmas. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:56 | |

about what the UK's
long-term relationship | 0:15:12 | 0:15:14 | |
with the European Union should be. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:15 | |
It follows the decision last week

can now move to the second phase. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |

Norman Smith is in Westminster. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:23 | |
Remarkable I suppose that they are
finally discussing this for a first | 0:15:23 | 0:15:28 | |
time after the referendum. What
might come up? In truth not much | 0:15:28 | 0:15:32 | |
beyond this was their first meeting
was is remarkable in the sense I | 0:15:32 | 0:15:37 | |
suspect most viewers feel a bit as
if they have been hit about the head | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
with a wet kipper when it comes to
Brexit statements, debates and news. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:45 | |
But the reason this was the first
meeting is because so much attention | 0:15:45 | 0:15:49 | |
has been focussed on the divorce
deal and because at the moment there | 0:15:49 | 0:15:54 | |
is no agreement about what sort of
end deal we want with the EU. There | 0:15:54 | 0:15:58 | |
are those in the Cabinet around the
Chancellor, Philip Hammond, who want | 0:15:58 | 0:16:03 | |
to ensure we remain close to the
single market so there is still | 0:16:03 | 0:16:09 | |
access for British and that might
mean possibly accepting some EU | 0:16:09 | 0:16:14 | |
rules, it might mean belonging still
to some EU organisations, maybe | 0:16:14 | 0:16:18 | |
involving payments for key parts of
the British economy like the City. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
Then there are those around figures
like the Foreign Secretary, Boris | 0:16:21 | 0:16:25 | |
Johnson, who think we have got to
move away from EU rules. So we are | 0:16:25 | 0:16:29 | |
free to strike our own trade deals
which they believe is the real | 0:16:29 | 0:16:34 | |
benefit from Brexit. Between those
two, Mrs May is trying to negotiate | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
a sort of middle road which would
give us access without being bound | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |
by rules. But overnight, the EU's
chief negotiator has said no, you | 0:16:42 | 0:16:47 | |
can't have that sort of arrangement.
So if a divorce deal was hard, the | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
trade deal looks like it could be
even harder. Thank you. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:57 | |
Our top story this lunchtime. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
A review of building regulations,
following the Grenfell Tower fire, | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
says the current system isn't fit
for purpose and a culture change | 0:17:04 | 0:17:09 | |
is needed to ensure safety
is prioritised over cost. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |

How pressure to achieve the perfect

Australia crush England
to regain the Ashes, | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
with an innings and 41 run win,
in the third Test in Perth. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:28 | |
The United Nations High Commissioner
for Human Rights says it is possible | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
Aung San Suu Kyi and other senior
figures in Myanmar could face | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
charges of genocide,
following the violence | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
against the Rohingya
Muslim minority. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:58 | |
Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein has told
the BBC that the level of planning | 0:17:58 | 0:18:02 | |
involved suggested the repression
was sanctioned at the highest level. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
As our South Asia correspondent
Justin Rowlatt reports. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:08 | |
This boy is 11, he draws pictures
of the horrors he has witnessed. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:22 | |
TRANSLATION: Older
women were stamped on. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:25 | |
And then the military grabbed them
by the hair and slaughtered them. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:34 | |
Because I saw that,
I am drawing this. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:44 | |
He is one of 650,000 Rohingya
refugees who fled Myanmar | 0:18:46 | 0:18:50 | |
after a military assault that
began in the late August. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
They are coming to kill us, says
the man, they are coming to kill us. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:58 | |
The widespread and systematic nature
of the violence has persuaded | 0:18:58 | 0:19:06 | |
the UN's Human Rights Chief
that the crimes committed in Myanmar | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
could amount to genocide. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:10 | |
Acts intended to destroy
a group of people. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:16 | |
Can anyone rule out that elements
of genocide may be present? | 0:19:16 | 0:19:22 | |
He wants a criminal investigation
to identify the perpetrators and, | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
in an exclusive interview
with the BBC, he doesn't rule out | 0:19:25 | 0:19:31 | |
the possibility that Aung Sang Suu
Kyi or military leaders | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
could end up in the dock. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
Given the scale of the military
operation, and clearly these | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
would have to be decisions taken
at a high enough level, | 0:19:40 | 0:19:50 | |
and then the crime of omission,
that if it came to your knowledge | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
that this was being committed
and you did nothing to stop it, | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
then you could be culpable for that. | 0:19:58 | 0:19:59 | |
He says only a court can judge that. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
But he is determined that
justice should be done. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:08 | |
In the meantime, though,
this boy and hundreds of thousands | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
like him remain in limbo. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
We asked Aung Sang Suu Kyi for
a response but she hasn't replied. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:18 | |

Votes are being counted
in the election of a new leader | 0:20:43 | 0:20:45 | |
of South Africa's governing
party, the ANC. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:49 | |
Activists say the bitterly-fought
contest remains too close to call, | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
with delegates casting a secret
ballot to choose either the Deputy | 0:20:52 | 0:20:56 | |
President Cyril Ramaphosa,
or Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma a former | 0:20:56 | 0:21:01 | |
Cabinet minister and the ex-wife
of President Jacob Zuma. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
Our South Africa correspondent
Milton Nkosi is in Johannesburg. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:10 | |
Is there a result yet?
Not yet. We are all waiting with | 0:21:10 | 0:21:19 | |
bated breath. The delegates, you can
see around me, have been coming out | 0:21:19 | 0:21:23 | |
of the dining hall. Everyone is in
speculating mode, speculating on | 0:21:23 | 0:21:30 | |
social media. Others say they cannot
take the anxiety, they are waiting | 0:21:30 | 0:21:35 | |
for this result because the leader
of the ANC will be leading the | 0:21:35 | 0:21:40 | |
largest political party in South
Africa with a membership of 1 | 0:21:40 | 0:21:45 | |
million. This is the oldest
liberation movement on the African | 0:21:45 | 0:21:50 | |
continent. Incredibly important not
just for South Africa but for the | 0:21:50 | 0:21:54 | |
continent as well.
Many thanks. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:58 | |
A former chief nursing officer,
the Right Reverend Sarah Mullally, | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
has become the most senior woman
in the Church of England, | 0:22:01 | 0:22:03 | |
after being nominated
as Bishop of London. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:05 | |
Bishop Sarah was made a Dame in 2005
for services to nursing, | 0:22:05 | 0:22:10 | |
and will replace Lord Chartres,
who retired earlier this year. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
Our religious affairs correspondent
Martin Bashir reports. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:19 | |
I am very glad to officially
announce our 133rd Bishop of London | 0:22:19 | 0:22:26 | |
and the Right Reverend Sarah
Mullaly, tightly -- Please welcome | 0:22:26 | 0:22:35 | |
her.
25 years after the General Synod | 0:22:35 | 0:22:38 | |
voted to ordain women as priests,
the appointment of the Right | 0:22:38 | 0:22:42 | |
Reverend Sarah Miller late as the
133rd Bishop of London Marks and | 0:22:42 | 0:22:47 | |
historic move towards gender
equality and means a woman now holds | 0:22:47 | 0:22:51 | |
one of the three most senior
positions in the Church of England. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:56 | |
Yes, it was a surprise but I am
delighted. I have lived and worked | 0:22:56 | 0:23:00 | |
in London for 32 years so there is a
sense of returning. I am both a | 0:23:00 | 0:23:07 | |
nurse, the chief nursing officer,
and a parish priest. There is a | 0:23:07 | 0:23:12 | |
sense I bring all of those to this
role. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:15 | |
The diocese of London is one of the
few areas where Anglican | 0:23:15 | 0:23:19 | |
congregations are growing. It boasts
the formidable presence of | 0:23:19 | 0:23:25 | |
conservatives from the
Anglo-Catholic and evangelical | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
traditions who disapprove of women
priests. While the Archbishop of | 0:23:27 | 0:23:31 | |
Canterbury described the appointment
is wonderful, other church leaders | 0:23:31 | 0:23:35 | |
were relieved the new Bishop of
London does not support any change | 0:23:35 | 0:23:39 | |
to the practice of marriage in
church being between a man and | 0:23:39 | 0:23:44 | |
woman.
I think it would be very regrettable | 0:23:44 | 0:23:47 | |
if the church moved into that
position because it would undermine | 0:23:47 | 0:23:52 | |
its traditional teaching. I was
delighted Bishop Sarah said she | 0:23:52 | 0:23:56 | |
stood by the traditional teachings.
Bishops of London art additionally | 0:23:56 | 0:24:01 | |
made dean of the chapels royal,
churches like St George's Chapel and | 0:24:01 | 0:24:07 | |
Westminster Abbey which are overseen
by the monarch and not a bishop. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:11 | |
This raises the prospect of Bishop
Sarah officiating at the wedding of | 0:24:11 | 0:24:16 | |
Prince Harry to Meghan Markle due to
take place at Wednesday in many -- | 0:24:16 | 0:24:21 | |
at Windsor in May. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:23 | |
Martin Bashir, BBC News. | 0:24:23 | 0:24:30 | |
Police in Scotland saying to people
have died in a fire at a hotel in | 0:24:30 | 0:24:34 | |
the moment, at the Cameron house
Hotel. Three other people are being | 0:24:34 | 0:24:39 | |
treated in hospital. Police are
trying to find out how the fire | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
began. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
Tens of thousands of people may be
putting themselves at increased risk | 0:24:44 | 0:24:47 | |
of dying from heart attack
or stroke, because they're | 0:24:47 | 0:24:49 | |
mis-using anabolic steroids. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:50 | |
The British Cardiovascular Society
has issued a stark warning, | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
amid concern that steroids
are being used by more | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
people than ever before,
particularly by young men who feel | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
under pressure to
have the perfect body. | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
Dan Whitworth reports. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:08 | |
This is 29-year-old Gareth doing
what he does best, take a look. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:17 | |
It's what nearly five years
of hard work, dedication | 0:25:17 | 0:25:19 | |
and black market anabolic | 0:25:19 | 0:25:20 | |
steroids looks like. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:27 | |
I feel more awake, better in myself,
more manly, I have a high sex drive. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
There are serious potential
risks from a medical | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
perspective using steroids. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:35 | |
Increased risk of heart attack,
strokes, mood swings, infertility. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:38 | |
Do those not worry you? | 0:25:38 | 0:25:41 | |
Everything we do in life carries
a risk of heart attack, cancer. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:48 | |
Whatever it is, I'm going to get
is those risks anyway. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:50 | |
I choose not to do certain things. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
I don't go out drinking or smoking. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
I take steroids. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
When it comes to the law,
anabolic steroids are legal to use | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
and possess across the UK. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:02 | |
What is illegal is supplying them
unless you are a doctor. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:08 | |
If you are caught you could face
prison sentence of up to 14 years. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:12 | |
Anabolic steroids cause an imbalance
of hormones which can damage | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
many different organs,
in particular the heart. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:18 | |
That doesn't stop this man
who spoke on condition | 0:26:18 | 0:26:21 | |
of anonymity from dealing them. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:27 | |
A broad spectrum of people use
steroids, from young guys 18, | 0:26:27 | 0:26:30 | |
training, looking to bulk up
for a summer holiday. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:33 | |
A summer holiday. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
They want to attract the girls. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
These guys, you have to be more
informative when you talk to them, | 0:26:38 | 0:26:42 | |
make them aware of the risks. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
According to public health experts,
hundreds of thousands of people | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
are now using anabolic steroids. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:50 | |
Government figures showed
there were 25 convictions in England | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
and Wales relating to illegally
supplying them in | 0:26:53 | 0:26:55 | |
the last two years. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
Just seven of those
ended with prison. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:03 | |
What about the health
of the people you are supplying? | 0:27:03 | 0:27:10 | |
They can face infertility,
mood swings, getting strokes | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
decades earlier than the average. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:13 | |
It is illegal for a reason. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:14 | |
Yes. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:15 | |
I don't agree with it being illegal. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:19 | |
Doctors prescribe testosterone. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
If there is a reason... | 0:27:21 | 0:27:22 | |
You are not a doctor. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:25 | |
Doctors prescribe it. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:32 | |
Steroids, if it was killing people
they would not be prescribing it. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:35 | |
The media sensationalises it. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
People abuse steroids and do
damage their health. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
That is their choice. | 0:27:40 | 0:27:43 | |
The group which advises Government
on drug misuse is in the middle | 0:27:43 | 0:27:46 | |
of a review into anabolic steroids
and due to report its | 0:27:46 | 0:27:49 | |
findings next year. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:56 | |
And if you want to see more on that
story, you can watch | 0:27:56 | 0:28:01 | |
Steroid Nation, a documentary
which is on the BBC Radio 1 | 0:28:01 | 0:28:03 | |
channel of the iPlayer now. | 0:28:03 | 0:28:06 | |
It was in hope rather than
expectation that the beleaguered | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
England cricket team embarked
on this winter's tour to Australia, | 0:28:09 | 0:28:12 | |
but few would have predicted
they would surrender the Ashes | 0:28:12 | 0:28:14 | |
quite so easily. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:15 | |
This morning, England
were bowled out for 218, | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
giving the hosts an innings victory
and an unassailable 3-0 | 0:28:17 | 0:28:20 | |
lead in the series. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:21 | |
Andy Swiss reports from Perth. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:31 | |
It had been coming for
a while but for Australia still just | 0:28:31 | 0:28:34 | |
as sweet, for England
just as painful. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:37 | |
The side began with
an unlikely lifeline. | 0:28:37 | 0:28:44 | |
Overnight rain had leaked
onto the pitch, an army of leaf | 0:28:44 | 0:28:47 | |
blowers were deployed,
causing a three hour delay. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:49 | |
Australia made up for lost time. | 0:28:49 | 0:28:50 | |
Jonny Bairstow clean bowled by one
that barely bounced. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:55 | |
Dawid Malan, one of
the few successes, gave | 0:28:55 | 0:28:57 | |
hope with a gritty 50. | 0:28:57 | 0:29:01 | |
His resistance ended
and England's last hopes left. | 0:29:01 | 0:29:05 | |
Chris Woakes was caught behind,
Australia's victory party began. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:10 | |
England once again
whacked at the WACA, | 0:29:10 | 0:29:14 | |
England once again whacked
at the WACA, again faced | 0:29:14 | 0:29:16 | |
with Ashes failure. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:17 | |
It is bitterly disappointing. | 0:29:17 | 0:29:22 | |
One frustrating thing is we haven't
been blown away, we have not been | 0:29:22 | 0:29:25 | |
completely outplayed. | 0:29:25 | 0:29:26 | |
We have put up some
really good performances, | 0:29:26 | 0:29:28 | |
just not long enough,
simple as that. | 0:29:28 | 0:29:35 | |
Again, the scoreboard
in Perth makes sorry reading | 0:29:35 | 0:29:37 | |
for English cricket. | 0:29:37 | 0:29:38 | |
To lose the Ashes after three
matches will be a crushing | 0:29:38 | 0:29:41 | |
disappointment but this is a team
with problems on and off the pitch. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:44 | |
Their star player Ben Stokes didn't
even travel after an incident | 0:29:44 | 0:29:47 | |
outside a nightclub. | 0:29:47 | 0:29:49 | |
Other big names like Stuart Broad
and Alistair Cooke have struggled. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:52 | |
England were the underdogs here. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:54 | |
As it turned out, with good reason. | 0:29:54 | 0:29:56 | |
I have not been surprised
with what I have seen. | 0:29:56 | 0:30:01 | |
If you look at the England tool box
they have arrived with, | 0:30:01 | 0:30:05 | |
they were missing a spanner,
screwdriver, no one with real pace. | 0:30:05 | 0:30:10 | |
Not having their best
player in Ben Stokes | 0:30:10 | 0:30:12 | |
would always be a big issue. | 0:30:12 | 0:30:14 | |
The challenge now for England
is a grim one, to avoid | 0:30:14 | 0:30:17 | |
the dreaded whitewash,
after being outbatted, | 0:30:17 | 0:30:21 | |
outbowled and outclassed,
and it could be a long few weeks. | 0:30:21 | 0:30:24 | |
Andy Swiss, BBC News, Perth. | 0:30:24 | 0:30:28 | |
Time for a look at the weather. | 0:30:28 | 0:30:29 | |
Can you lift our spirits? It is
beautiful at the moment. We have | 0:30:33 | 0:30:40 | |
some very thick fog starting to
form. | 0:30:40 | 0:30:45 | |
Here are some lovely weather watcher
pictures, this one from the Isle of | 0:30:45 | 0:30:50 | |
Wight. Some folk already. From
around Merseyside to the West | 0:30:50 | 0:30:57 | |
Midlands into central evidence, we
already have some thick fog forming | 0:30:57 | 0:31:02 | |
which will become more widespread as
we go through the day. For many of | 0:31:02 | 0:31:08 | |
us, a beautiful day, cloud and
drizzle in the North West of | 0:31:08 | 0:31:11 | |
Scotland.
Most likely to develop across | 0:31:11 | 0:31:19 | |
central England, southern England,
Eastern counties, the fog could be | 0:31:19 | 0:31:24 | |
dense enough to cause delays on the
road and possibly even some of the | 0:31:24 | 0:31:29 | |
airports in the South. They're that
in mind if you are travelling | 0:31:29 | 0:31:33 | |
tomorrow. Look at the extent this
morning. Some freezing fog around as | 0:31:33 | 0:31:40 | |
temperatures dipped to zero. A lot
milder in the North West due to | 0:31:40 | 0:31:47 | |
south-westerly winds.
Southern parts of the UK, the | 0:31:47 | 0:31:55 | |
airports, in some places the fog
will last through the afternoon, in | 0:31:55 | 0:32:01 | |
many areas it will lift and
disperse. | 0:32:01 | 0:32:05 | |
Where it lingers, it could be around
0 degrees. Most of us won't get | 0:32:05 | 0:32:13 | |
that. A lot of low, grey cloud. The
odd spot, 14 degrees in Aberdeen. | 0:32:13 | 0:32:25 | |
This is an unusual meteorological
phenomenon. | 0:32:25 | 0:32:29 | |
We had a weather front living in
tomorrow night, fog forming in some | 0:32:29 | 0:32:33 | |
parts of the country. Wednesday is
gloomy, less foggy, the wind will | 0:32:33 | 0:32:42 | |
pick up. Temperatures into double
figures. | 0:32:42 | 0:32:46 | |
The best of the sunshine in
Scotland. | 0:32:46 | 0:32:49 | |
At the end of the week, this is the
jet stream to the north of us. | 0:32:49 | 0:32:57 | |
Slightly milder weather for us, high
pressure this time of year usually | 0:32:57 | 0:33:03 | |
means low, grey skies, drizzly
weather, the risk of more fog. Take | 0:33:03 | 0:33:07 | |
it steady if you are travelling
first thing tomorrow. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:09 | |
A reminder of our main
