Patients are dying in
hospital corridors - | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
the stark warning from A&E doctors
to the Prime Minister. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:11 | |
Almost 70 heads of department
in England and Wales have written | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
to Theresa May saying conditions
are at times intolerable | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
despite the best efforts of staff. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:21 | |
I think I was trolley
number 12 and two more | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
people came in after me. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:28 | |
Then they said they can't take any
more trolleys so the ambulance | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
was having to wait outside. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:32 | |

Britain's Johanna Konta faces
a testing opening match | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
in the Austalian Open next week
against American Madison Brengle. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:17 | |
Good afternoon and welcome
to the BBC news at One. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
Doctors have warned
the Prime Minister that patients | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
are dying in the corridors
of accident and emergency units | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
in England and Wales. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:45 | |
The heads of 68 A&E departments have
written to Theresa May saying | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
that the current level of safety
compromise is at times intolerable | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
despite the best efforts of staff. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
And they say that thousands
of patients are waiting for hours | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
in ambulances because hospitals
don't have enough space. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Our health correspondent
Catherine Burns reports. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
Is that the one that you want? | 0:02:02 | 0:02:03 | |
Yeah. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
Rosie Dawson was in severe pain
when she went to A&E last week. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
She had a gynaecological problem
and was bleeding heavily, | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
but the hospital was so busy
that she was examined | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
on a trolley in a busy corridor. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
I think I was trolley number 12
and there were trolleys | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
going all the way up. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
You can't see to someone's dignity,
you can't ensure they are having | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
a private conversation and that
if they break down in tears, | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
which I think I did,
I think I'm pretty sure that I cried | 0:02:28 | 0:02:34 | |
as well, but you can't look
into anybody's kind of right | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
to privacy or anything like that. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:45 | |
Today doctors from almost
half the A&E units | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
in England and Wales
have | 0:02:47 | 0:02:48 | |
written to the Prime Minister,
saying that plans for the winter had | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
failed to deliver anywhere
near what was needed. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
They talk about patients dying
in hospital corridors under | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
intolerable conditions. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
In terms of these winter pressures
that we see the NHS under, | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
there have been a number of measures
that we have taken that have helped. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
For example, for the first time
ever, urgent GP appointments | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
being available throughout
the Christmas period. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
But still, figures from NHS England
show that at some point last week, | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
just 3% of hospital trusts
in England had enough beds free | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
to provide safe care. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:20 | |
They are supposed to have no more
than 85% of beds occupied, | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
but on Thursday, just four out
of 137 trusts were below that safe | 0:03:23 | 0:03:31 | |
level. To add to this, more
statistics showing | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
that the symbol was the worst month
for A&E waiting times | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
since records began in 2004. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:41 | |
3,000 patients in England
were not seen within | 0:03:41 | 0:03:43 | |
the four-hour waiting target. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:47 | |
And so, a warning that this
is a watershed moment for the NHS. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:50 | |
We have now clearly reached
the point where the NHS cannot meet | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
the standards of care that we would,
all of us in the NHS, | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
ministers included, want to provide. | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
So the key question is,
do we abandon those standards, | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
and none of us in the NHS will do
that, or does the Government make | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
the decisions it needs to make
about the long-term funding and it | 0:04:05 | 0:04:10 | |
needs to make those
decisions quickly. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:11 | |
Authorities in Wales and Northern | 0:04:11 | 0:04:17 | |
Ireland say they are under pressure
too and A&E waiting times in | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
Scotland hit their worst ever levels
at the end of December. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
The message from health
care professionals is | 0:04:23 | 0:04:24 | |
that despite staff's best efforts,
the NHS is chronically underfunded | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
and the Government must act soon. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:28 | |
Catherine Burns, BBC News. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:34 | |
Let's speak to our health editor.
This letter is quite a moment, it | 0:04:34 | 0:04:40 | |
really is quite a letter from people
at the front line of all of this. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:44 | |
That's right, we have had a series
of warnings from Royal colleges | 0:04:44 | 0:04:49 | |
representing doctors and a warning
from NHS providers, which you heard | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
there just now about the watershed
moment. These are front-line senior | 0:04:53 | 0:04:59 | |
doctors employed by trusts who have
taken it upon themselves to get | 0:04:59 | 0:05:07 | |
together a letter which they say
represents the views of staff that | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
they work with because they are so
concerned. They have sent it to the | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
Prime Minister. The fact that they
are at the front line in emergency | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
departments are saying there are
very serious concerns about safety, | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
that some people are dying
prematurely because they are having | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
to be managed in corridors, I think
is very significant. And they are | 0:05:23 | 0:05:28 | |
saying whatever the Prime Minister
has been saying in recent days, | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
there was not in their view enough
preparation or planning for winter. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:36 | |
They say the solution lies in more
money for social care to help | 0:05:36 | 0:05:41 | |
discharge patients from hospitals.
It has to be said the 68 signature | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
is don't represent all hospitals in
England and Wales. I understand some | 0:05:45 | 0:05:50 | |
senior doctors were asked to sign it
but didn't, but it is an interesting | 0:05:50 | 0:05:54 | |
view of how people see things on the
front line. The Department of Health | 0:05:54 | 0:05:59 | |
is making clear there are a lot more
A&E consultants than they're worth | 0:05:59 | 0:06:04 | |
in 2010, more money has been made
available over the next couple of | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
years, but the new debate is getting
going over the long-term and | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
short-term future of the NHS in
terms of funding and social care. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:18 | |
Hugh Pym, thank you. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |

The Prime Minister has pledged
to eliminate avoidable plastic waste | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
within 25 years as part
of a far-reaching plan | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
to improve Britain's environment. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:35 | |
She has urged supermarkets
to introduce aisles where | 0:06:35 | 0:06:37 | |
shoppers can buy products
with no plastic packaging. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
A small charge for disposable
plastic bags will also be | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
extended to all shops,
not just big retailers. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
Theresa May called plastic waste
"one of the great environmental | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
scourges of our time". | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
But environmentalists have
criticised the plans | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
saying they lack urgency,
detail and bite. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
Here's our environment
analyst, Roger Harrabin. | 0:06:55 | 0:07:01 | |
There's huge public anxiety
about plastic litter, since David | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
Attenborough's Blue Planet series
revealed sea creatures eating | 0:07:04 | 0:07:06 | |
plastic waste. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:14 | |
The Prime Minister's surfing
that wave of concern - | 0:07:15 | 0:07:17 | |
aiming for votes from young people
who care deeply about the | 0:07:17 | 0:07:20 | |
environment they will inherit. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:24 | |
While the water in our
rivers and beaches | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
are cleaner than ever before,
around the world 8 million tonnes of | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
plastic makes its way
into the oceans each year. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:35 | |
But is Mrs May being
ambitious enough? | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
She said all avoidable
plastic waste should be | 0:07:38 | 0:07:39 | |
stopped by 2042. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
That is 25 years from now. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:44 | |
Environmentalists are not impressed. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
We don't think it's urgent
enough, we don't think | 0:07:47 | 0:07:49 | |
it's robust enough and we don't
think it's detailed enough. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:55 | |
The oceans, which are
bearing the brunt | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
of our addiction to throwaway
plastic, can't wait | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
25 years for pollution. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:08 | |
25 years for solutions. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:09 | |
But plastics form just part
of the the Government's 25-year | 0:08:09 | 0:08:12 | |
plan for the environment
launched today. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:13 | |
The environment is something
personal to each of us. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
But it is also something
which collectively we | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
hold in trust for
the next generation. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:18 | |
And we have a responsibility
to protect and enhance it. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:24 | |
But it's a crowded
island we live on. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:30 | |
Woodlands, like here
at Lodge Hill in Kent, have | 0:08:30 | 0:08:32 | |
been decimated over the decades. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:33 | |
This is the UK's prime
site for nightingales, | 0:08:33 | 0:08:38 | |
but the local council wants to build
much-needed | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
houses on part of it. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:41 | |
If housing development was to go
ahead at Lodge Hill, it | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
would constitute the biggest
destruction of one of our finest | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
wildlife sites for 25 years. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:49 | |
And at a time when
the government has | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
clearly expressed a commitment to
restoring nature, it seems madness | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
to conceive, let alone to consent
to such a development. | 0:08:53 | 0:09:01 | |
A walk in the woods is good
for your mental | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
and physical health. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:04 | |
The government's acknowledged that. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:06 | |
It wants to increase
woodland cover, especially | 0:09:06 | 0:09:07 | |
near where people live. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:10 | |
It wants to bring back wild flower
meadows and improve | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
rare habitats like heathlands. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
But the pressure's
on for development. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:21 | |
We have a housing target
we have to meet of 29,500 | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
between now and 2035 -
huge demand in Medway | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
and in North Kent for housing,
affordable housing and a | 0:09:27 | 0:09:32 | |
whole housing mix, and those houses
have to go somewhere. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:34 | |
There's pressure on
the natural world from | 0:09:34 | 0:09:36 | |
road-building too. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:41 | |
The Department for Transport
can't foresee a time | 0:09:41 | 0:09:43 | |
when new roads won't be needed. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
The rail line HS2 will damage
many ancient woodlands. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:50 | |
And the farmers' union
is demanding that all prime | 0:09:50 | 0:09:55 | |
agricultural land is kept for
farming, not wildlife, | 0:09:55 | 0:09:56 | |
to maximise food output. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
But the Government's plan
for nature will attempt to | 0:09:58 | 0:10:02 | |
bring some nature back to farmland
and replenish depleted soils. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:07 | |
Environmentalists welcome
the Government's plans to restore | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
Britain's nature, but the problem
they say that is so far | 0:10:11 | 0:10:15 | |
it is just a plan. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:17 | |
To really convince them,
ministers would need to introduce | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
legislation and there
seems no sign of that. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:27 | |
Our assistant political editor
Norman Smith is at the wetlands | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
Centre in south-west London weather
Prime Minister gave her speech this | 0:10:34 | 0:10:38 | |
morning. So the Prime Minister's
first big speech of the year, why | 0:10:38 | 0:10:43 | |
the environment why now? You are
right, it might seem surprising in | 0:10:43 | 0:10:49 | |
the sense Mrs May has never been
noted for her views on the | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
environment, particularly given the
current how all around the NHS, that | 0:10:52 | 0:10:59 | |
she has chosen her first big speech
on the green agenda. Partly they | 0:10:59 | 0:11:04 | |
believe it will be popular, there is
a sense in Government that people | 0:11:04 | 0:11:08 | |
are increasingly exasperated by the
sheer volume of plastic packaging we | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
have to put up with. Everything from
the proverbial coffee cup to fruit | 0:11:12 | 0:11:18 | |
and veg safely wrapped in
cellophane, to every time you order | 0:11:18 | 0:11:22 | |
something online incomes in blankets
of packaging, and a desire to change | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
that. Secondly the political climate
has changed. When David Cameron | 0:11:26 | 0:11:31 | |
tried to pursue a green agenda he
ran into ferocious opposition from | 0:11:31 | 0:11:39 | |
many other Conservatives, certainly
many Conservative supporting | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
newspapers. Now they have done an
about turn and they are fully behind | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
the green agenda. Lastly there is a
desire to talk about something other | 0:11:44 | 0:11:49 | |
than Brexit. The non-Brexit domestic
agenda, and in particular one that | 0:11:49 | 0:11:57 | |
appeals to younger voters. Research
has shown that one of the issues | 0:11:57 | 0:12:02 | |
that concern is most younger voters
is, yes, the environment. Norman | 0:12:02 | 0:12:08 | |
Smith in south-east London, thank
you. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
Christmas sales figures
for retailers have presented | 0:12:11 | 0:12:12 | |
a mixed bag this season. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
Marks & Spencer sales fell over
the key Christmas period, | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
while Tesco reported
record festive trade. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:17 | |
A number of major retailers have
alluded to difficulties | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
in the market and tough trading
conditions. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:21 | |
Our Business Correspondent
Emma Simpson reports now | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
on the winners and losers. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:31 | |
It worked out all right in the end,
didn't it? It did too for Britain's | 0:12:31 | 0:12:37 | |
biggest retailer. Despite problems
with their turkeys, Tesco's | 0:12:37 | 0:12:41 | |
Christmas sales were up. Food has
long been a bright spot for Marks & | 0:12:41 | 0:12:46 | |
Spencer, their premium product, but
this Christmas quarter sales went | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
into reverse. There is food
inflation and we also buy a lot of | 0:12:50 | 0:12:55 | |
food over Christmas because of
entertaining and just eating, so it | 0:12:55 | 0:13:00 | |
is very disappointing that marks and
Spencer hasn't matched the rest of | 0:13:00 | 0:13:03 | |
the grocers and I think it's a lot
to do with its competition producing | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
very good premium ranges at low
prices so it is up against a | 0:13:06 | 0:13:10 | |
challenging market, and its clothing
hasn't been doing well either. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:14 | |
Christmas feels like a long time ago
now. For retailers, it can be make | 0:13:14 | 0:13:19 | |
or break. On the high street it's
been incredibly | 0:13:19 | 0:13:28 | |
been incredibly challenging.
Consumers have less money to spend. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:34 | |
House of Fraser has been really
feeling the pressure. It has seen | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
another fall in sales today, but as
ever there are winners and losers | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
and this one is in the winner 's
camp. There is demand there, you | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |
just have to find it and create the
conditions in which people want | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
things and that comes down to having
fabulous products. It means being | 0:13:45 | 0:13:49 | |
brilliant in terms of experience
people get in your shops has never | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
been more important, and it means
you have to get outstanding at | 0:13:53 | 0:13:58 | |
online shops and that is something
we work very hard to do. In | 0:13:58 | 0:14:02 | |
Nottingham shoppers seem to be
careful in parting with their cash. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:06 | |
I had a budget and we tried to stick
to it as far as possible. I did it | 0:14:06 | 0:14:11 | |
all online because I didn't want to
be in the rush of everyone. I | 0:14:11 | 0:14:16 | |
normally look at deals with pop-up,
normally on Facebook or a certain | 0:14:16 | 0:14:21 | |
site will be doing e-mails and then
I have a look. No surprise then that | 0:14:21 | 0:14:28 | |
online accounted for a quarter of
non-food shopping last month. A | 0:14:28 | 0:14:35 | |
small but fast-growing retailer,
Boohoo, expects growth of 90% this | 0:14:35 | 0:14:43 | |
year. That is something they can
only dream of on the high street. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:48 | |
The sales are on, after a quarter
that has been far from Golden, and | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
this year could be just as tough as
the last one. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
A woman has appeared in court
charged with murder, | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
after police found a body buried
in a garden in Greater Manchester. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
Barbara Coombes, who's 63,
is also charged with preventing | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
the lawful and decent burial
of a body, and with fraud. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
Let's speak to our
correspondent, Judith Moritz. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:14 | |
This was a short hearing, just three
minutes or so and Barbara Coombes, | 0:15:17 | 0:15:22 | |
wearing glasses and a fleece jumper,
spoke to confirm her personal | 0:15:22 | 0:15:27 | |
details. She is charged with
murdering | 0:15:27 | 0:15:33 | |
murdering Kenneth Coombes in 2006
and she is accused of burying his | 0:15:34 | 0:15:38 | |
body and writing official letters
and pretending to be his care to | 0:15:38 | 0:15:41 | |
claim money. It is understood
Kenneth Coombes is her father. Her | 0:15:41 | 0:15:47 | |
neighbours this week were asked by
police whether they remember him, he | 0:15:47 | 0:15:53 | |
would have been in his late 80s, in
2005. The police say at the weekend | 0:15:53 | 0:15:59 | |
that a 63-year-old went into a
police station and told officers she | 0:15:59 | 0:16:03 | |
had killed a man some years ago and
she had buried him in the garden. A | 0:16:03 | 0:16:09 | |
forensic search began and human
remains were recovered from Barbara | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
Coombes's garden. They have not been
officially identified. The results | 0:16:13 | 0:16:18 | |
of a postmortem have not been
released. Barbara Coombes has been | 0:16:18 | 0:16:23 | |
charged with murder and she will
reappear before a court tomorrow | 0:16:23 | 0:16:26 | |
morning. The charges will be
presented to her again. Thank you. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:35 | |

In California, rescue teams
are searching for 17 people | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
who are still missing
after the flash floods | 0:17:10 | 0:17:12 | |
and mud slides on Tuesday. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
17 people are known to have died
when a torrent of mud, carrying | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
boulders the size of small cars,
smashed through the | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
town of Montecito. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
Over 100 homes have been destroyed. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
The area in Santa Barbara County was
only just recovering from the recent | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
devastating wildfires. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:32 | |
Our North American correspondent,
James Cook, is there. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:37 | |
In Montecito, they are still combing
the ruins, looking for survivors. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
But with every hour that
passes, hope fades. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:45 | |
The surge of mud and debris
was just too powerful. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:49 | |
It consumed everything before it,
turning homes to matchwood. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:53 | |
We had, you know, between us,
a dear friend that didn't make it. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:56 | |
He lives upstream. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:57 | |
And that was brutal. | 0:17:57 | 0:17:59 | |
They got blown right
out of the house. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
His wife is still alive. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:02 | |
The kids are traumatised, of course. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
It came really close. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:05 | |
It came right up to our hedges. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:10 | |
Thank God that it didn't take
out our homes or our car | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
and our children are safe. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:14 | |
But, yeah, our neighbours
weren't as fortunate. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:16 | |
More than 500 firefighters and other
rescue teams have been | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
working around the clock,
hoping beyond hope that they | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
can still save lives. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:21 | |
I have been a firefighter
for 26 years. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:25 | |
Yeah, for most people that
are here on this incident, we have | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
never seen an event like this. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:31 | |
Parts of the town are still cut off,
but some residents have been | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
returning to inspect the damage. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
The house being gone
is just a house, you know. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
It's just some clothes in a house. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:41 | |
But in a neighbourhood this small,
every single name that turns | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
up is someone's dad,
someone's cousin, someone's teacher, | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
and that's got to be
the worst part of it all, | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
I think. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:50 | |
I'm just happy for
everyone that makes it. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:55 | |
The sky lit up because some
buildings had blown up. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
The gas mains, it turns out. | 0:18:57 | 0:18:59 | |
Here is all this fire coming
down, and fire going up, | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
and here is all this rain coming
down, and you wonder, | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
what's happening? | 0:19:04 | 0:19:05 | |
I mean, it was an
incredible experience. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:08 | |
That was the bunny that
I missed catching. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:10 | |
Oh, my gosh. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:13 | |
I was in the kitchen,
trying to get out through the back | 0:19:13 | 0:19:15 | |
when we saw the wall
of water coming. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
I couldn't reach her. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:20 | |
We had our dog. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:22 | |
Grabbed our dog. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:27 | |
We grabbed our dog by the collar
but missed the cats and the cat | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
and the bunny and the water hit
and knocked out... | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
Went through our house,
took everything. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:35 | |
But somehow, in the cage... | 0:19:35 | 0:19:38 | |
The firefighters found her
and we found this on top of our car. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:42 | |
I thought I would find a dead bunny
in it, but she was alive. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
Amazing. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:51 | |
The mudslide didn't just
claim lives, it paralysed | 0:19:51 | 0:19:52 | |
this part of California. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
This is the main motorway along
the Pacific coast, the 101 Freeway. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
Police say it will not be open
until Monday at the earliest. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
The trauma will last much longer. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
James Cook, BBC News, Montecito. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:08 | |
Let's speak to the CBS
correspondent, Carter Evans, | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
who's in Montecito. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:14 | |
The middle of the night there now,
our rescue workers still hoping to | 0:20:14 | 0:20:22 | |
find people alive? They are still
hoping to find people alive right | 0:20:22 | 0:20:26 | |
now, this is still a rescue effort,
not a recovery effort. James talk to | 0:20:26 | 0:20:31 | |
people talking about being blown out
of their homes. I want to try to | 0:20:31 | 0:20:36 | |
explain the scale of this. The
pictures really do not do it | 0:20:36 | 0:20:40 | |
justice. This happened at about 4am,
people were asleep. Everyone says | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
they heard rumbling and a mudslide
hits the wall of the home, it is not | 0:20:44 | 0:20:52 | |
just mugged, rocks and boulders like
this one, but this is a small | 0:20:52 | 0:20:56 | |
boulder. A lot of the rocks and
boulders were the size of small | 0:20:56 | 0:21:00 | |
cars. Just imagine what that would
be like. The best way I can think of | 0:21:00 | 0:21:05 | |
to describe it is imagine if you
took a home and put it on a giant | 0:21:05 | 0:21:09 | |
bowling alley and you took the huge
boulders, dozens, perhaps hundreds, | 0:21:09 | 0:21:14 | |
and tossed them at the house, that
is what happened here. Extraordinary | 0:21:14 | 0:21:18 | |
pictures from Montecito in southern
California, thank you for joining | 0:21:18 | 0:21:24 | |
us. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:25 | |
Universal Credit is the biggest
welfare reform in decades. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:27 | |
But teachers and charities
are warning that the new benefit | 0:21:27 | 0:21:29 | |
could cause chaos in the provision
of free school meals in England. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
They believe that plans to link
eligibility for the free meals | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
to household earnings,
which often fluctuate, | 0:21:36 | 0:21:40 | |
will also undermine the core
principal of the universal credit | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
that work always pays. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:43 | |
Our social affairs correspondent,
Michael Buchanan, reports. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:49 | |
Breakfast time at a south London
School, a handy aid to working | 0:21:49 | 0:21:55 | |
families and those struggling to get
by. Around half the pupils here get | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
free school meals, a by-product of
getting certain benefits. But | 0:21:59 | 0:22:05 | |
Universal Credit which families can
move on and off when earnings change | 0:22:05 | 0:22:09 | |
could make it hard for the school to
know who is eligible. It would be | 0:22:09 | 0:22:14 | |
very complicated for the school and
we would find it hard to monitor and | 0:22:14 | 0:22:18 | |
follow. Parents would not
understand. One week we are asking | 0:22:18 | 0:22:23 | |
for money, the following month, we
are not. It is confusing for the | 0:22:23 | 0:22:27 | |
school, parents, not a good way of
doing it. The school has invested | 0:22:27 | 0:22:32 | |
heavily in giving children healthy
food, currently all families who get | 0:22:32 | 0:22:37 | |
Universal Credit can get free school
meals. The Department for Education | 0:22:37 | 0:22:43 | |
plans to restrict provision. In
future, and the families whose | 0:22:43 | 0:22:47 | |
earnings are less than £7,400 a year
before benefits will qualify -- when | 0:22:47 | 0:22:52 | |
the families. The school has a
complete commitment to healthy | 0:22:52 | 0:22:57 | |
eating, it has its own garden for
growing vegetables, it has even got | 0:22:57 | 0:23:01 | |
chickens for fresh eggs. What
campaigners say is that the | 0:23:01 | 0:23:05 | |
consultation was an opportunity for
the Government to reassess free | 0:23:05 | 0:23:09 | |
school meals, to see them not as a
cost but as an investment in the | 0:23:09 | 0:23:13 | |
future and to help tackle in
particular the growing problem of | 0:23:13 | 0:23:17 | |
childhood obesity. As Universal
Credit is rolled out across the | 0:23:17 | 0:23:22 | |
country, ministers say it is an
affordable to give all families on | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
the benefit free school meals, it
would cost about £600 million. They | 0:23:25 | 0:23:31 | |
say their plans will see 50,000 more
children getting free food than | 0:23:31 | 0:23:36 | |
currently do so, but charities take
a different view of the planned | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
restrictions. There is evidence it
increases attainment, concentration | 0:23:39 | 0:23:45 | |
in the afternoon, and for most of
the children in poverty, it can mean | 0:23:45 | 0:23:48 | |
the difference between getting a
nutritious meal in that day and not | 0:23:48 | 0:23:52 | |
getting anything at all. A
consultation on these plans for | 0:23:52 | 0:23:57 | |
England ends today, similar
restrictions have been announced for | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Whatever the benefits of free school | 0:24:00 | 0:24:08 | |
meals, the cost of extending
provision is decided policy. Michael | 0:24:08 | 0:24:10 | |

The trial of ex-football coach
Barry Bennell on charges of child | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
sexual offences has heard
from a former youth footballer | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
who says he was abused
by Bennell as they travelled | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
to and from training
at Manchester City. | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
The former coach, who's now
known as Richard Jones, | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
denies 48 charges of
child sexual abuse. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
Our sports correspondent,
David Ornstein, has been | 0:24:26 | 0:24:27 | |
hearing the evidence
at Liverpool Crown Court. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:35 | |
This is the second day of evidence
against Bennell who has been | 0:24:36 | 0:24:40 | |
described by the prosecution as a
predatory paedophile. The witness | 0:24:40 | 0:24:43 | |
that spoke today, as you said, he
received lifts to and from | 0:24:43 | 0:24:50 | |
Manchester City training after being
scouted by Bennell and he said the | 0:24:50 | 0:24:55 | |
abuse started in Bennell's car and
happened 98% of the time that he was | 0:24:55 | 0:24:59 | |
in the car and it allegedly
escalated at Bennell's house, after | 0:24:59 | 0:25:06 | |
watching horror movies which were
said to be used as a scare tactic by | 0:25:06 | 0:25:10 | |
Boeing. He said he was abused over
100 times in his bed and 50-100 | 0:25:10 | 0:25:16 | |
times in his living room -- by
Bennell. When they were alone, the | 0:25:16 | 0:25:21 | |
abuse wasn't a serious sexual abuse,
it is alleged. I will never forget | 0:25:21 | 0:25:25 | |
the first time, I was crying in
pain, I felt it lasted for hours, | 0:25:25 | 0:25:30 | |
but maybe two, three minutes. He may
have stopped because I was crying so | 0:25:30 | 0:25:35 | |
much. The abuse is said to have
continued at Butlins and also a | 0:25:35 | 0:25:39 | |
haunted house. After the lunch
break, this witness will be | 0:25:39 | 0:25:43 | |
cross-examined and the trial
continues. It is expected to last | 0:25:43 | 0:25:46 | |
for eight weeks.
David, thank you. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:52 | |
Two men are on the run in France
after taking part in a | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
smash-and-grab raid
on the Ritz Hotel in Paris. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:57 | |
Three other members of the gang
were caught at the scene, | 0:25:57 | 0:26:00 | |
but the pair who escaped made off
with an estimated £3.5 | 0:26:00 | 0:26:03 | |
million worth of jewels,
as Dan Johnson reports. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
A large police response outside
the Paris Ritz after a gang, | 0:26:05 | 0:26:08 | |
armed with axes, carried out
a violent raid. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:12 | |
It isn't just the Christmas
lights that sparkle here. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:18 | |
There are jewels on display to match
the wealth of the guests | 0:26:18 | 0:26:26 | |
at one of the world's
most exclusive hotels. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
The robbers arrived in Place Vendome
on scooters at around six | 0:26:29 | 0:26:32 | |
in the evening local time,
smashing windows on the ground | 0:26:32 | 0:26:34 | |
floor of the hotel. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:36 | |
It is estimated they took jewels
worth 4 million euros. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
But police officers interrupted
the raid and arrested | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
three of the five men. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
Paris has seen this before. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:46 | |
In October, 2016, US reality TV star
Kim Kardashian had a gun put | 0:26:46 | 0:26:50 | |
to her head as a gang stole
10 million euros-worth | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
of her jewellery. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:56 | |
Only one piece was never seen again. | 0:26:56 | 0:27:04 | |
-- ever seen again. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
It is not clear how much
was recovered from this latest raid. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
Police are still searching for two
of the men involved. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:15 | |

Video bloggers, or vloggers
as they're known, | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
can do big business online on sites
such as YouTube. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:20 | |
Some of the most famous post videos
which are watched by millions | 0:27:20 | 0:27:23 | |
and millions of people
around the world. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:24 | |
But now YouTube has cut some
business ties with the video blogger | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
Logan Paul, after he was heavily
criticised for posting a video | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
appearing to show the body
of a suicide victim. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:32 | |
This report from our
correspondent, Chi Chi Izundu. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
# Girl, what you trying to do? | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
# Because I don't have a clue...#
| 0:27:36 | 0:27:37 | |
He's one of the most popular video
bloggers on YouTube. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:45 | |
15 million subscribers
watch his comedy vlogs. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:48 | |
But last night, YouTube said
it was cutting some business ties | 0:27:48 | 0:27:52 | |
with Logan Paul over a video
he posted at the end of last month. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:58 | |
The video, which we can't show,
featured the dead body of a man | 0:27:58 | 0:28:01 | |
who appeared to have
taken his own life. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:06 | |
It had been viewed millions of times
before Logan removed | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
it from his channel. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:10 | |
In a statement, YouTube acknowledged
it had taken a long time to respond, | 0:28:10 | 0:28:13 | |
but that it also had been listening
to comments and criticisms. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:18 | |
It added that it recognised
the actions of one | 0:28:18 | 0:28:20 | |
creator could affect
the whole community and it said it | 0:28:20 | 0:28:23 | |
would soon announce steps to make | 0:28:23 | 0:28:31 | |
sure any similar videos
were never circulated again. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:38 | |
I have made a severe and continuous
lapse of my judgment and I don't | 0:28:38 | 0:28:42 | |
expect to be forgiven. | 0:28:42 | 0:28:43 | |
I'm simply here to apologise. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:48 | |
YouTube said that they would
put on hold projects | 0:28:48 | 0:28:50 | |
with the 22-year-old
and that they would no | 0:28:50 | 0:28:52 | |
longer feature his channel
on the Google Preferred programme. | 0:28:52 | 0:28:54 | |
Effectively, lowering his
advertising profile with top brands. | 0:28:54 | 0:28:56 | |
Logan Paul isn't the only
one being criticised. | 0:28:56 | 0:28:58 | |
Anger is being directed
towards YouTube with questions like, | 0:28:58 | 0:29:00 | |
why they didn't take down
the offending post initially | 0:29:00 | 0:29:03 | |
in the first place, why it took them
so long to even issue a statement | 0:29:03 | 0:29:06 | |
in response, and why his channel
is still up on their platform, | 0:29:06 | 0:29:09 | |
allowing him to make
money from advertising. | 0:29:09 | 0:29:11 | |
At 22 years old, I bought my first
house for $6.5 million... | 0:29:11 | 0:29:19 | |
Last year, Forbes magazine estimated
Logan Paul's wealth at | 0:29:19 | 0:29:21 | |
just over £9 million. | 0:29:21 | 0:29:22 | |
But with YouTube's sanction,
it's still not clear whether that | 0:29:22 | 0:29:25 | |
will shrink considerably. | 0:29:25 | 0:29:26 | |

And finally, the former England
captain Rio Ferdinand has managed | 0:29:27 | 0:29:29 | |
to put Prince William on the spot
over Prince Harry's wedding. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:32 | |
They were doing some filming
for a mental health charity | 0:29:32 | 0:29:39 | |
when Rio Ferdinand asked exactly
what he would be doing on 19th May. | 0:29:39 | 0:29:42 | |
There is the matter of a small
wedding that will happen | 0:29:42 | 0:29:46 | |
this year and, of course,
your brother, we're very, | 0:29:46 | 0:29:48 | |
very happy for him. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:49 | |
It's a big decision. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:50 | |
Are we going to Wembley
or are we going...? | 0:29:50 | 0:29:52 | |
You've touched on something
there, Rio, yeah. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:54 | |
I'm still working it out. | 0:29:54 | 0:29:58 | |
Will see what I can do. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:01 | |
I think, you know, having that
person there, I think it's kind | 0:30:01 | 0:30:04 | |
of apt you are talking about a best
man project, so to speak. | 0:30:04 | 0:30:07 | |
That relationship that you have... | 0:30:07 | 0:30:08 | |
He hasn't asked me yet. | 0:30:08 | 0:30:09 | |
LAUGHTER. | 0:30:09 | 0:30:12 | |
It could be a sensitive issue. | 0:30:12 | 0:30:18 | |
He hasn't asked him yet! I suspect
that might happen quite soon. | 0:30:18 | 0:30:23 | |
Time for a look at the weather. | 0:30:23 | 0:30:26 | |
Nice to see some sunshine. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:30 | |
Let us hope for some on the 19th of
June as well. It is not sunny | 0:30:31 | 0:30:38 | |
everywhere. This is in the Highlands
with the snowcapped mountains in the | 0:30:38 | 0:30:43 | |
background. Always a but with the
British weather, grey weather once | 0:30:43 | 0:30:48 | |
again, Scarborough, many eastern
areas under the cloud, raining quite | 0:30:48 | 0:30:52 | |
steadily in south-eastern parts of
England. Sunshine further west. | 0:30:52 | 0:30:57 | |
Stubborn fog for Northern Ireland,
some parts of East Anglia. Through | 0:30:57 | 0:31:01 | |
the night, it will thicken up. The
brightness lasts for the next few | 0:31:01 | 0:31:05 | |
hours, but where we get the
brightness, we get fog overnight. In | 0:31:05 | 0:31:10 | |
eastern areas, with the weather
front getting weaker, a few breaks | 0:31:10 | 0:31:13 | |
and fog here. In the countryside,
like last night, down towards | 0:31:13 | 0:31:18 | |
freezing. Freezing fog for the drive
tomorrow. Some hope of it lifting | 0:31:18 | 0:31:24 | |
earlier than in recent days for
Northern Ireland, stiffening breeze | 0:31:24 | 0:31:29 | |
through the day. A good Delos and
gender start across Scotland, albeit | 0:31:29 | 0:31:34 | |
rather cold, with the fog -- a good
deal of sunshine to start. Down | 0:31:34 | 0:31:41 | |
towards the West Country, Central
and southern England, Wales. But it | 0:31:41 | 0:31:44 | |
will not be football. A few drizzly
showers around. Quite a bit of cloud | 0:31:44 | 0:31:51 | |
tomorrow -- but it will not be for
all. This is the change. By the end | 0:31:51 | 0:31:56 | |
of play tomorrow. Friday night, it
will turn quite wet for Northern | 0:31:56 | 0:32:01 | |
Ireland. That will alleviate fog
problems. Quite bank on Saturday. | 0:32:01 | 0:32:08 | |
Showers ahead of it, a lot of cloud,
some brightness, as the weather | 0:32:08 | 0:32:14 | |
front starts to weaken and narrow.
Temperatures on a par with what we | 0:32:14 | 0:32:17 | |
are seeing at the moment. Hopefully
not as much of the fog over the | 0:32:17 | 0:32:23 | |
weekend because we have more breeze
but it does not stop it being rather | 0:32:23 | 0:32:27 | |
cloudy. The first weather front is
swapped by the next one coming in on | 0:32:27 | 0:32:31 | |
Sunday. A lot of cloud, dry weather,
but it signifies a change. The spell | 0:32:31 | 0:32:38 | |
of heavy rain, gale force winds
Sunday night into on Monday going | 0:32:38 | 0:32:41 | |
east. Behind it, a blast of cold
air. It will feel bitter, Dale, | 0:32:41 | 0:32:49 | |
severe gales. The risk of some snow.
Just to reiterate once again, the | 0:32:49 | 0:32:56 | |
main issue will be the fog this
evening and overnight. | 0:32:56 | 0:33:01 | |
A reminder of our main
story this lunchtime. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:04 | |
A&E doctors issue a stark warning
to the Prime Minister that | 0:33:04 | 0:33:07 | |
conditions in their departments
are at times intolerable, | 0:33:07 | 0:33:14 | |
And patients are dying in corridors. | 0:33:14 | 0:33:53 |
