The impact of Britain leaving the EU

could leave the country

0:00:040:00:08

substantially worse off.

0:00:080:00:12

A leaked Government report suggests

UK growth will be slower

0:00:120:00:16

after leaving the EU -

no matter what deal is done.

0:00:160:00:21

But Government says the document

didn't consider the impact

0:00:210:00:23

of Theresa May's preferred option -

a bespoke trade deal with the EU.

0:00:230:00:29

Also this lunchtime:

0:00:290:00:30

A review

of on-air pay at the BBC

0:00:300:00:32

finds no gender bias,

but says the corporation's

0:00:320:00:34

approach to setting pay

is "far from perfect."

0:00:340:00:37

Police and the CPS apologise

to a student whose rape trial

0:00:370:00:40

collapsed after mistakes were made

in the disclosure of evidence.

0:00:400:00:47

Police believe a series

of violent burglaries,

0:00:470:00:49

where £1 million worth of goods have

been stolen, were carried out

0:00:490:00:52

by a man with military training.

0:00:520:00:56

Creative subjects such as music,

art and drama are being cut back

0:00:560:00:59

in many secondary schools

in England, according to research

0:00:590:01:01

carried out by the BBC.

0:01:010:01:04

Coming up in the sport later

in the hour on BBC News,

0:01:070:01:10

Wales have named their 15 to face

Scotland in their Six Nations opener

0:01:100:01:13

and ten Scarlets players will start.

0:01:130:01:21

Good afternoon and welcome

to the BBC News at One.

0:01:360:01:40

The impact of Britain's departure

from the EU could leave the country

0:01:400:01:43

substantially worse off,

according to a leaked

0:01:430:01:45

government document.

0:01:450:01:48

An analysis of three scenarios

was drawn up for the office

0:01:480:01:50

of the Brexit Secretary,

David Davis.

0:01:500:01:53

In one, the report says if Britain

leaves without a trade deal

0:01:530:01:56

and is forced to fall back

on World Trade Organisation rules,

0:01:560:01:59

growth will be 8% lower over

the next 15 years than if the UK had

0:01:590:02:03

remained in the EU.

0:02:030:02:07

But the Government insists

Britain won't be worse off

0:02:070:02:09

and that its preferred bespoke trade

deal option was not

0:02:090:02:11

analysed in this document.

0:02:110:02:13

Our Political Correspondent

Alex Forsyth reports.

0:02:130:02:20

There were some chipper faces as the

Cabinet met this morning.

It's a

0:02:220:02:27

lovely morning, isn't it?

Despite

the fact that they had woken up to a

0:02:270:02:31

government leak. A government

prepared by officials meant for

0:02:310:02:34

their eyes only was passed to a news

website. It suggests the economy

0:02:340:02:41

could be worse off as a result of

Brexit, growing more slowly in the

0:02:410:02:45

long-term, whether there is a trade

deal or not.

I'm not going to

0:02:450:02:49

comment this morning. We don't

comment on leaked papers and I feel

0:02:490:02:52

sure we comment in the House.

Plenty

were keen to have their say. Not

0:02:520:02:56

least those who think Brexit is a

bad idea.

It tells you most

0:02:560:03:02

importantly this is a cost

government modelling and it shows

0:03:020:03:06

the economy will be worse off. This

economy, people's jobs will be worse

0:03:060:03:10

off as a result of leaving the

European Union.

During the

0:03:100:03:15

referendum campaign, the remain camp

produced documents predicting Brexit

0:03:150:03:17

would hit the economy. Leavers said

they were unreliable, pessimistic

0:03:170:03:22

forecasts and claim this latest

analysis is the same.

I don't

0:03:220:03:26

believe a word of it. The honest

truth is every forecast from the

0:03:260:03:30

Government to do with Brexit or even

to do with the economy has been

0:03:300:03:34

wrong as far back as I can remember.

Bear in mind that during the debate

0:03:340:03:38

on Brexit we were told the economy

would crash and there would be

0:03:380:03:42

500,000 job losses. The economy has

grown since then.

Some argue the

0:03:420:03:46

public has a right to seek

government advice.

In a referendum

0:03:460:03:49

where many people wanted to take

back control and get their decisions

0:03:490:03:54

made back in London, that to have a

government that tries to hide things

0:03:540:03:58

and be secretive and deny things are

happening, you know, it's not good.

0:03:580:04:02

The Government says this is just an

early draft and part of much wider

0:04:020:04:06

on going analysis will the impact of

Brexit and crucially, it doesn't

0:04:060:04:11

model what they want to achieve

which is a bespoke tailor-made deal

0:04:110:04:16

with the EU unlike anything that's

gone before. Ministers making that

0:04:160:04:20

case today said it was unhelpful to

publish such information.

At this

0:04:200:04:25

early stage, it only considers

off-the-shelf trade arrangements

0:04:250:04:29

that currently aexist. We have been

clear that these are not what we are

0:04:290:04:33

seeking in the negotiations. It does

not yet consider our desired

0:04:330:04:39

outcome, the most ambitious

relationship possible with the

0:04:390:04:41

European Union.

But some MPs are

firmly unconvinced. Views here are

0:04:410:04:46

deeply divided and in the Lords too,

where they are starting to debate

0:04:460:04:50

Brexit laws, the Government's

handling of this process is still

0:04:500:04:54

under firm scrutiny.

0:04:540:04:57

Our Economics Editor

Kamal Ahmed is here.

0:04:570:05:02

The Government says it is not the

option it wants. It does look at

0:05:020:05:06

three specific scenarios.

It does,

Jane. It is the forecasts again,

0:05:060:05:10

what are we to believe? Well, the

modelling is about what we know from

0:05:100:05:15

all the evidence around the world

about global relations. If there are

0:05:150:05:19

barriers put up to trade, that is

seen by all the modellers as to

0:05:190:05:25

having a negative effect on your

economy. And this government

0:05:250:05:30

analysis tallies with economic

analysis by the London School of

0:05:300:05:35

Economics, the National Institute

for Economic and Social Research,

0:05:350:05:39

big, serious forecasters, but the

thing to remember with these things

0:05:390:05:41

is that forecasts are not what will

definitely happen, it is what is a

0:05:410:05:46

judgment on what is likely to

happen. And there has been some

0:05:460:05:53

economic negative effect of the

referendum slightly slower growth,

0:05:530:05:56

but it is up to politicians to drive

the economy, Brexit isn't the only

0:05:560:06:01

thing going on in the economy. So if

there is better global growth for

0:06:010:06:05

example, the economy will perform

better. And as Alex said in remember

0:06:050:06:10

report, no modelling of this new

bespoke arrangement that the

0:06:100:06:13

Government says it wants because

it's unique. Well, it's hard to

0:06:130:06:16

model what is unique. So, yes, the

forecasts are negative as have many

0:06:160:06:22

others been, but it doesn't mean it

will definitely be the outcome of

0:06:220:06:27

where the UK economy goes.

All right, Kamal, thank you.

0:06:270:06:31

Our Assistant Political Editor

Norman Smith is in Westminster.

0:06:310:06:39

Ministers insisting they are not

going to publish this report, but

0:06:420:06:45

that's worth bearing in mind they

were forced kicking and screaming a

0:06:450:06:49

few weeks ago to publish other

analysis of Brexit on different

0:06:490:06:53

parts of the economy. Some

Brexiteers are relaxed about the

0:06:530:06:58

report being published because it

doesn't really tell us a vast amount

0:06:580:07:01

new. There have been loads of

economic reports, warning of the

0:07:010:07:06

potential woes of Brexit. The real

political hoo-ha over the fact that

0:07:060:07:12

the report was leaked because it was

only given to those at the top of

0:07:120:07:16

government and in a sign of tensions

in Tory ranks, some Brexiteers are

0:07:160:07:21

suggesting it was leaked by those

who want to scupper the chance of a

0:07:210:07:25

radical break with the EU because it

is suggested in the report that

0:07:250:07:28

would be the most damaging outcome

and it is implied that perhaps those

0:07:280:07:33

sympathetic to the Chancellor, who

suggested we only wanted to diverge

0:07:330:07:38

modestly from the EU, are perhaps

behind this and the real fear of the

0:07:380:07:43

Brexiteer is maybe the Prime

Minister is beginning to go a along

0:07:430:07:48

with the Chancellor's views and

their fear is very end up with what

0:07:480:07:54

we call beano, no that's not a

reference to lord snooty and his

0:07:540:07:57

pals, it refers to Brexit in name

only. In other words we leave the

0:07:570:08:02

EU, but really, not much changes.

Norman, thank you. Norman Smith at

0:08:020:08:06

0:08:060:08:09

A review carried out by the auditors

PwC has found no gender bias in pay

0:08:100:08:13

decisions for on-air staff

at the BBC - though its report said

0:08:130:08:16

the Corporation's approach

to setting pay in general has been

0:08:160:08:19

"far from perfect".

0:08:190:08:20

The BBC has set out a five-point

plan to help create what it

0:08:200:08:23

says will be a fairer

and more equal organisation.

0:08:230:08:26

The Director-General Lord Hall says

some highly-paid stars

0:08:260:08:28

will see their pay cut,

while some women and men

0:08:280:08:30

will be paid more.

0:08:300:08:37

Our Media Correspondent

David Sillito has the details.

0:08:370:08:45

When Carrie Gracie

resigned as China editor

0:08:450:08:47

earlier this month,

it was in protest about pay.

0:08:470:08:49

She said a comparable

male editor was being

0:08:490:08:51

paid more than 50% more than her.

0:08:510:08:53

And she's not alone.

0:08:530:08:55

Eleanor Bradford was

a health correspondent

0:08:550:08:56

in Scotland for 15 years.

0:08:560:09:00

While there were one

or two who'd been in

0:09:000:09:03

the job longer than me, there

weren't many people who had been

0:09:030:09:06

there longer than me,

and also while I was there I saw

0:09:060:09:10

male specialists being appointed

on starting salaries

0:09:100:09:12

that were higher than mine.

0:09:120:09:14

The response?

0:09:140:09:16

A number of top male stars have

already agreed to take a cut,

0:09:160:09:23

and today's independent report has

looked into whether the pay

0:09:230:09:25

decisions at BBC News

were based on gender.

0:09:250:09:27

The answer to that is no,

but there is a gap.

0:09:270:09:30

So overall a pay gap of 6.8%

between men and women,

0:09:300:09:34

which is less than it is for the BBC

as a whole, but there are some other

0:09:340:09:38

findings in this report.

0:09:380:09:39

For instance, at the very top

there are more men, and

0:09:390:09:42

it says they are paid too much,

they are going to have to have pay

0:09:420:09:46

cuts, and a number of women

are going to

0:09:460:09:48

have to have to pay rises.

0:09:480:09:49

What I've laid out today is a

package of measures from a framework

0:09:490:09:55

by which presenters, whom so ever

they are, can see where they're

0:09:550:09:59

placed versus their peers. Narrowing

the bands in which they are paid. So

0:09:590:10:03

that's clearer too. Lowering some

pay for some men, at the very top,

0:10:030:10:13

but looking hard at the pay for

women and men where the pay has been

0:10:130:10:17

too low.

But there are serious

doubts about this report and its

0:10:170:10:21

findings from the women who have

been campaigning for equal pay.

BBC

0:10:210:10:25

women has had to reject this report

because we were really hoping to be

0:10:250:10:30

consulted on its scope and on its

methodology. That did not happen and

0:10:300:10:33

it is hard to reach any other

conclusion other than the conclusion

0:10:330:10:38

that this report has reached the

conclusion the BBC wanted it to

0:10:380:10:42

reach.

And also the report doesn't cover

0:10:420:10:46

the BBC's really big earners in

entertainment. It is just a survey

0:10:460:10:49

of news and one reason for that is,

news isn't as competitive as it used

0:10:490:10:53

to be.

Pay rates for the sort of

star journalists are way over the

0:10:530:10:58

top in my view in today's market and

I think that's clearly being

0:10:580:11:04

addressed. The rest of the situation

is much more difficult, it is highly

0:11:040:11:10

subjective who has got the same

level of job as somebody else?

The

0:11:100:11:13

BBC says it wants to be a leader in

equality and to reduce the yawning

0:11:130:11:18

pay divides, but convincing BBC

women that it is truly serious about

0:11:180:11:23

pay equality, it's still got work to

do.

0:11:230:11:27

Our Media Editor Amol Rajan is here.

0:11:270:11:31

The point about the PwC report,

given the size of the BBC, it is

0:11:310:11:35

looking at really quite a small

number of people within it.

It is

0:11:350:11:39

the third report the BBC

commissioned on the issue of gender

0:11:390:11:42

pay or equal pay, but this report

only looked at 824 presenters,

0:11:420:11:47

correspondents and editors within

BBC News. It didn't look at the

0:11:470:11:50

whole of the BBC and one of the

issues here is when that list of

0:11:500:11:53

salaries was published last summer,

there is a huge number of names that

0:11:530:11:56

weren't on there that earn a lot of

money from the BBC because they are

0:11:560:11:59

paid by independent production

companies. So we have far from a

0:11:590:12:03

full picture about what top earners

at the BBC are getting.

0:12:030:12:10

at the BBC are getting. Tony Hall's

five-point plan, it has conveyed the

0:12:100:12:12

impression that he is trying to get

a grip on this issue and the BBC's

0:12:120:12:17

women campaigning group says that

Tony Hall has good intentions and

0:12:170:12:25

has taken control of this issue.

There are a lot of grievances from a

0:12:250:12:29

lot of people who feel that over

years they have accumulated a

0:12:290:12:33

disadvantage and so when Carrie

Gracie, the former China editor who

0:12:330:12:36

cut her post as China editor and

returning back to London quit in

0:12:360:12:42

protest at equal pay, I think this

storely will flair up again and I

0:12:420:12:46

suspect far from the report being

the end of the story, it is merely

0:12:460:12:49

the end of the beginning.

Thank you.

0:12:490:12:54

The Metropolitan Police

and the CPS have apologised

0:12:540:12:56

to a man accused of rape,

after a review found that mistakes

0:12:560:12:59

were made in the disclosure

of evidence which resulted

0:12:590:13:01

in the trial against him collapsing.

0:13:010:13:04

22-year-old Liam Allan had been

accused of rape and sexual assault,

0:13:040:13:06

but his trial was halted

after police were ordered

0:13:060:13:09

to hand over phone records.

0:13:090:13:10

Danny Shaw is at Scotland Yard

in Central London.

0:13:100:13:18

Explain more then what has finally

happened with the police and the

0:13:180:13:23

CPS, Danny.

Well, Liam Allan was

arrested on suspicion of rape in

0:13:230:13:27

January 2016 and his alleged

victim's mobile phone was seized by

0:13:270:13:32

police. It contained 57,000 lines of

data. The officer in charge of the

0:13:320:13:37

investigation searched through the

data, looking for relevant material,

0:13:370:13:40

but could find none. It was later

found that he hadn't conducted the

0:13:400:13:45

search properly. He hadn't recorded

how he'd conducted the search and it

0:13:450:13:49

wasn't until December last year,

that's almost two years, under which

0:13:490:13:53

Liam Allan had been under

investigation, that relevant,

0:13:530:13:58

important material was found amongst

those messages that undermined the

0:13:580:14:02

prosecution's case and led to the

charges against Mr Allan being

0:14:020:14:06

dropped. We've had an apology for

Liam Allan from the Metropolitan

0:14:060:14:12

Police and the Crown Prosecution

Service. Here is commander Richard

0:14:120:14:15

Smith.

0:14:150:14:18

We accept, the Met, accepts

and the CPS accepts that we failed

0:14:180:14:21

to identify this error early enough

and we really should have

0:14:210:14:24

done and that's why I've

apologised to Mr Allan.

0:14:240:14:26

That's why we've initiated a review

of the other cases we have that have

0:14:260:14:29

got past charge and are running

towards trial to ensure

0:14:290:14:31

that there are no other

errors within those that

0:14:310:14:34

should be addressed.

0:14:340:14:41

That review is looking at 600 cases

in London. They've already

0:14:420:14:46

identified 500. So, and they found

some cases which are giving

0:14:460:14:52

prosecutors cause for concern. As

for the detective in the Liam Allan

0:14:520:14:57

case, he hasn't been disciplined

because Scotland Yard says there was

0:14:570:15:00

no evidence of misconduct on his

party, but he has voluntarily agreed

0:15:000:15:05

to move to other duties, he won't be

investigating sexual assault cases.

0:15:050:15:10

Danny Shaw, thank you.

0:15:100:15:14

Police believe a series of violent

burglaries over the last three years

0:15:150:15:18

have been carried out by a man

with an Armed Forces background.

0:15:180:15:21

Detectives say one man

is suspected of carrying

0:15:210:15:22

out raids in Berkshire,

Kent, Sussex and Surrey,

0:15:220:15:24

in which valuables worth a million

pounds in total have been stolen.

0:15:240:15:27

Police say the raids have all had

military style planning.

0:15:270:15:30

Frankie McCamley reports.

0:15:300:15:34

Caught on CCTV, the burglar police

believe to have military training

0:15:340:15:36

or involved in law enforcement.

0:15:360:15:38

Detectives say in each of the seven

raids, he has shown signs

0:15:380:15:41

of specialist knowledge and skills,

staking out his targets for weeks,

0:15:410:15:43

studying their movements

and where they keep their valuables,

0:15:430:15:45

before he makes his vicious move.

0:15:450:15:53

He hit me three times on my face.

0:15:550:15:57

It was very very painful,

and I couldn't believe

0:15:570:15:59

the blows kept coming.

0:15:590:16:06

And so I took him to the jewellery,

I gave him the jewellery.

0:16:060:16:09

It was very frightening,

but he actually said to me,

0:16:090:16:11

"Get on the floor."

0:16:110:16:12

I actually thought he

was going to rape me.

0:16:120:16:14

I was very very frightened.

0:16:140:16:18

The intruder has stolen jewellery,

valuables and heirlooms worth

0:16:180:16:20

in total more than £1 million.

0:16:200:16:28

We believe this person

is not an amateur burglar.

0:16:350:16:37

We think that this is somebody

who has specialist skills.

0:16:370:16:39

He uses firearms and

cable ties to do this.

0:16:390:16:41

And he has an immense amount

of planning and prepping before

0:16:410:16:44

he goes and commits these offences.

0:16:440:16:45

Despite the Ministry of Defence

saying it's working with the police

0:16:450:16:48

on the investigation,

it has asked for more evidence,

0:16:480:16:53

stating:

0:16:530:17:01

There are trade crafts

that we generally will only see

0:17:100:17:13

by individuals that have specialist

or former military experience,

0:17:130:17:20

which include identifying patterns

of life of the owners of these

0:17:200:17:23

properties, looking at the arcs

of the cameras and their locations,

0:17:230:17:25

to even the methods of entry.

0:17:250:17:27

The suspect has targeted affluent

homes in Berkshire, Kent,

0:17:270:17:29

Surrey and Sussex over a period

of three years.

0:17:290:17:31

Police say the burglar must now be

caught to prevent further harm

0:17:310:17:34

coming to anybody else.

0:17:340:17:35

Frankie McCamley, BBC News.

0:17:350:17:39

A man accused of murdering one

woman and attempting

0:17:390:17:42

to murder another had,

years earlier, offered an undercover

0:17:420:17:44

police officer the chance to drug

and rape one of his alleged victims,

0:17:440:17:47

according to evidence heard

in court this morning.

0:17:470:17:55

Mujahid Arshid denies killing

Celine Dookhran and trying

0:17:570:17:59

to kill another woman,

who can't be named

0:17:590:18:01

for legal reasons.

0:18:010:18:02

Jon Donnison is at the Old Bailey.

0:18:020:18:06

A deeply distressing case, Jon. Can

you explain what was heard in court?

0:18:060:18:12

Today the prosecution wrapped up

their case against Mr Arshid, which

0:18:120:18:16

came in what they call bad character

evidence. As you said, this is an

0:18:160:18:21

allegation that in 2013 Mr Arshid

was caught up in a police paedophile

0:18:210:18:26

staying with an undercover officer

posing as a paedophile on a website

0:18:260:18:30

which the police say is used for

people with a sexual interest in

0:18:300:18:35

young people. And allegation is that

Mr Arshid offered to provide a

0:18:350:18:40

teenage girl to this undercover

officer so she could be drugged and

0:18:400:18:47

raped. He also then sent photos to

this undercover officer of the woman

0:18:470:18:54

who now alleges that she was raped

and was attempted to be murdered by

0:18:540:19:02

Mr Arshid. I should say Mr Arshid

denies all the charges. He said

0:19:020:19:08

someone had managed to access and

hack into the root in his home to

0:19:080:19:13

carry out this chat with the

undercover officer -- hack into the

0:19:130:19:19

router. The prosecution service in

2013 decided there wasn't enough

0:19:190:19:23

evidence to bring charges. We did

actually get onto the defence case

0:19:230:19:27

today. Mr Arshid appeared in court

and he said the principal witness

0:19:270:19:31

against him was a compulsive liar

and manipulator. The trial

0:19:310:19:34

continues.

Jon Donnison, thank you.

It is 90 minutes past one.

Our top story this

lunchtime:

0:19:470:19:51

The consequences of leaving the EU

could leave Britain in a

0:19:510:19:54

considerably

0:19:540:19:59

considerably worse state, according

to a leaked Government report.

0:20:020:20:03

The impact of Britain leaving the EU

could see the country

0:20:030:20:06

substantially worse off,

according to a leaked

0:20:060:20:08

government report.

0:20:080:20:09

And coming up:

0:20:090:20:10

Saying farewell to one

of football's greats -

0:20:100:20:12

crowds pay tribute at the funeral

of the England and West Bromwich

0:20:120:20:15

striker Cyrille Regis.

0:20:150:20:21

Creative arts subjects

are being cut back in many

0:20:210:20:23

secondary schools in England,

according to research

0:20:230:20:25

carried out by the BBC.

0:20:250:20:28

Nine out of ten of schools

which responded to a survey said

0:20:280:20:30

they had reduced classes,

staff or facilities in at least

0:20:300:20:33

one of the subjects.

0:20:330:20:34

The findings, from more than 1200

schools, suggest music,

0:20:340:20:37

art and drama, and design

and technology are

0:20:370:20:39

all being squeezed.

0:20:390:20:46

The increased emphasis on core

academic subjects and funding

0:20:490:20:51

pressures were the most common

reasons given, as Jo Black reports.

0:20:510:20:56

The creative arts -

they have been part of the weekly

0:20:560:20:58

timetable for decades,

but for how much longer?

0:20:580:21:05

In the last three years,

Head Teacher Jez Bennett

0:21:050:21:08

from Northamptonshire has had to cut

arts lessons, resources, and staff,

0:21:080:21:10

and is teaching some

of the classes himself.

0:21:100:21:12

I have had to make some decisions

about whether I can afford

0:21:120:21:15

to run certain classes.

0:21:150:21:16

And I know that there

are schools that have cut

0:21:160:21:23

GSCEs in art, music,

drama, and photography.

0:21:230:21:24

I just want to have, like,

the chance to express myself.

0:21:240:21:27

If I came to a school

with no art curriculum,

0:21:270:21:29

I couldn't see myself

enjoying it as much.

0:21:290:21:31

Jobs these day smostly

all rely on your core skills

0:21:310:21:34

like maths, English,

science, and that is

0:21:340:21:35

a lot of pressure.

0:21:350:21:36

The BBC approached every state

school in England asking

0:21:360:21:39

about their arts provision.

0:21:390:21:40

40% - that's more than 1200

schools - responded.

0:21:400:21:43

A third said they'd cut the number

of lessons in at least one arts

0:21:430:21:47

subject in the last few years.

0:21:470:21:48

A quarter said they now employ fewer

specialist teachers.

0:21:480:21:54

And a third are considering dropping

at least one arts subject at GSCE.

0:21:540:21:57

So why is this happening?

0:21:570:22:00

Schools say the key reason

is the Government's focus on core

0:22:000:22:05

academic subjects such as English,

maths, the sciences, language,

0:22:050:22:10

history, and geography.

0:22:100:22:11

Ministers want to schools

to ensure more pupils sit

0:22:110:22:13

these subjects at GCSE.

0:22:130:22:15

School leaders say pressure

on funding is also a major factor.

0:22:150:22:18

Then you will bring

the chain foto her yourself?

0:22:180:22:20

No, bear it with you,

less I come not in time.

0:22:200:22:22

This Shakespeare festival gives

pupils all over the country

0:22:220:22:25

the chance to perform

on a professional stage.

0:22:250:22:26

But increasingly schools have been

dropping out because they can't

0:22:260:22:30

afford it or they don't have enough

staff to take part.

0:22:300:22:37

Being a creative member of society

means that you are more confident

0:22:420:22:47

and communicate better and you work

better with people of very different

0:22:470:22:50

backgrounds to yourself.

0:22:500:22:54

Those are things that

are absolutely crucial structures

0:22:540:22:56

in a society facing the kind

of difficulties and problems

0:22:560:22:58

that we face.

0:22:580:22:59

The Government says schools

are required to provide a broad

0:22:590:23:01

and balanced curriculum which Ofsted

consider in their inspections.

0:23:010:23:04

It also says it is investing

£400 million in music and arts

0:23:040:23:06

education programmes.

0:23:060:23:10

But for most schools in our survey,

cuts to the arts are not over

0:23:100:23:13

yet, with more expected

in the coming years.

0:23:130:23:15

Jo Black, BBC News.

0:23:150:23:23

On the eve of annual State

of the Union address,

0:23:240:23:26

the man who briefs President Trump

on security - the head of the CIA -

0:23:260:23:30

has warned that China presents

as large a security threat

0:23:300:23:32

to the United States as Russia.

0:23:320:23:34

In an exclusive interview

with our security correspondent

0:23:340:23:36

Gordon Corera, Mike Pompeo also said

that Iran should stop interfering

0:23:360:23:38

in regional conflicts.

0:23:380:23:42

At CIA headquarters

Director Mike Pompeo has a long list

0:23:420:23:44

of intelligence targets.

0:23:440:23:52

We can watch very focused efforts

to steal American information,

0:24:040:24:06

to infiltrate the United States

with spies, with people

0:24:060:24:08

who are going to work

on behalf of the Chinese

0:24:080:24:11

government against America.

0:24:110:24:12

We see it in our schools,

we see it in our hospitals

0:24:120:24:14

and medical systems,

we see it throughout

0:24:140:24:16

corporate America.

0:24:160:24:17

It's also true in other

parts of the world.

0:24:170:24:19

Including Europe and the UK?

0:24:190:24:21

Including Europe and

the UK, of course.

0:24:210:24:22

Another priority, says the CIA

director, is confronting Iran

0:24:220:24:24

in the Middle East and beyond.

0:24:240:24:26

Are you worried about the level

of Iranian influence

0:24:260:24:28

in Syria and the region?

0:24:280:24:29

Yes.

0:24:290:24:30

And are there ways in which you feel

you can counter that?

0:24:300:24:33

Yes.

0:24:330:24:41

You're not worried that particularly

the tension between Iran

0:24:420:24:44

and Saudi Arabia could lead to some

kind of conflict?

0:24:440:24:46

I'm very worried about it.

0:24:460:24:47

We need to make sure that

that doesn't happen,

0:24:470:24:49

and the way to do that is to ensure

that the Iranian people understand

0:24:490:24:53

that this can't be good for them.

0:24:530:24:55

We saw the protests

these past weeks.

0:24:550:24:56

The Iranian people understand

that these adventures,

0:24:560:24:58

which cost the Iranian people tens

of millions of dollars and present

0:24:580:25:01

risk to their lives,

to fight in Yemen, make no sense.

0:25:010:25:03

That the history of Iran is deep.

0:25:030:25:11

The Persian people have a deep

understanding of how to be

0:25:190:25:22

successful in the world.

0:25:220:25:24

I hope that they will rise up

and understand that it's not

0:25:240:25:26

in the best interests

of their country to send forces

0:25:260:25:28

to places like Europe as proxies

to try and conduct malign activity

0:25:280:25:31

in Europe, when there is so much

that can be done to make

0:25:310:25:34

Iran a better place.

0:25:340:25:35

We're confident that the Iranian

people understand that.

0:25:350:25:42

We are hopeful there leaders will

accept their proposition as well.

0:25:420:25:50

As he enters his second year as CIA

Director Mike Pompeo knows

0:25:500:25:53

that the challenges,

including in Washington itself,

0:25:530:25:55

are unlikely to diminish.

0:25:550:25:56

Gordon Corera, BBC News, Langley.

0:25:560:26:01

Well, as the Prime Minister flies

to China, a major Chinese employer

0:26:010:26:04

in the UK has warned Theresa May

that she needs to give a "definite

0:26:040:26:07

signal" about the kind

of Brexit deal she wants.

0:26:070:26:15

The billionaire department

store owner Yuan Yafei,

0:26:400:26:42

who controls the House of Fraser

chain, said the UK government needs

0:26:420:26:45

to provide reassurance

about its departure from the EU.

0:26:450:26:47

He's been speaking to our

China Correspondent Robin Brant.

0:26:470:26:50

British things with an unmistakeable

British feel, on sale

0:26:500:26:52

in a distinctly British place.

0:26:520:26:53

But this House of Fraser

is in China, in the home city

0:26:530:26:56

of the billionaire who now controls

the British retail chain.

0:26:560:26:58

Why did you want to buy British?

0:26:580:27:02

Yuan Yafei has 17,000 staff

on his books in the UK,

0:27:020:27:04

and a major interest in Britain's

feature - including

0:27:040:27:06

of course, Brexit.

0:27:060:27:08

Is your business in the UK

going to be better outside

0:27:080:27:10

of the European Union?

0:27:100:27:11

Worse?

0:27:110:27:12

What do you think?

0:28:030:28:11

The funeral has taken place

of the former England

0:28:160:28:18

and West Bromwich footballer

Cyrille Regis.

0:28:180:28:19

The striker, who died earlier this

month at the age of 59,

0:28:190:28:22

was widely credited with inspiring

a generation of black

0:28:220:28:24

players into the game.

0:28:240:28:27

Nearly 2000 people attended an event

at The Hawthorns stadium

0:28:270:28:29

to celebrate his life,

as our sports correspondent

0:28:290:28:31

Andy Swiss reports.

0:28:310:28:32

It was the fondest of farewells, add

the ground Cyrille Regis graced as a

0:28:320:28:37

player they gathered in emotional

tribute. A private family funeral to

0:28:370:28:41

be followed by a public celebration

of his life, a chance to say goodbye

0:28:410:28:45

to a footballing hero.

He saw no

difference in anybody and all he

0:28:450:28:52

wanted to do was play football and

as a young black man he led the way.

0:28:520:28:58

He was a remarkable footballer and a

man and I love them, I just love

0:28:580:29:01

them.

View footballers have inspired

such words...

0:29:010:29:07

COMMENTATOR:

What a great shot!

His

dignity, determination and dazzling

0:29:070:29:15

goalgoals, he blazed a trail for

professional black footballers. For

0:29:150:29:19

the thousands of friends and family

gathering here, this is a chance to

0:29:190:29:27

celebrate a remarkable life, player

but also a pioneer, a man who helped

0:29:270:29:30

to change football.

Among the music and tributes, one of

0:29:300:29:37

his former team-mates spoke of his

strength and spirit.

0:29:370:29:40

We played at a time when black

players had to endure much vile

0:29:400:29:45

racist abuse, yet Cyrille never lost

his cool, nor was he ever

0:29:450:29:50

intimidated. He always said it

motivated him to play even better.

0:29:500:29:56

He left us with great memories, and

for that we are blessed to have

0:29:560:29:59

known him. Nice one,

0:29:590:30:11

known him. Nice one, Cyrille, nice

one, son.

His daughter then paid her

0:30:110:30:14

own special tribute.

A legend, a

gentleman, the Three Degrees, Big C,

0:30:140:30:23

the many different names you had,

but I couldn't be more proud to just

0:30:230:30:27

call you my dad. One day it, too,

will leave this place and returning

0:30:270:30:32

to my father's open arms, and

forever remain in his loving

0:30:320:30:37

embrace.

A day event to remember a

man who touched so many lives. A

0:30:370:30:44

fitting tribute to a footballing

giants. Andy Swiss, BBC News, the

STUDIO: Remembering the remarkable

0:30:510:30:54

Cyrille Regis. Let's turn our

attentions to the day's weather

0:30:540:30:59

prospects with Ben. Thank you, Jane.

A chilly

0:30:590:31:04

start for many of us. Some in

0:31:040:31:06

the South started 15 degrees lower

than yesterday morning. As so often

0:31:060:31:13

with our weather, it is all

0:31:130:31:14

than yesterday morning. As so often

with our weather, it is all

0:31:140:31:14

relative. I think we would call the

era across the British Isles at the

0:31:140:31:18

moment cool rather than anything

properly cold. The properly cold air

0:31:180:31:23

is on its way behind this front

moving southwards and eastward

0:31:230:31:27

tonight and tomorrow, then we get

into a much colder feel with some

0:31:270:31:31

strong winds as well. The first sign

of the change already beginning out

0:31:310:31:34

west. Thickening cloud for our

Weather Watcher in County

0:31:340:31:38

Londonderry. That is ahead of two

weather systems, one bringing patchy

0:31:380:31:42

rain and a more significant one

bringing heavy rain already across

0:31:420:31:46

the West of Scotland. Strong winds

and gales are likely here.

0:31:460:31:50

Elsewhere, not a bad end to the

afternoon, temperatures about 5-9d.

0:31:500:31:56

Then this weather system

0:31:560:32:02

will scrape along southern parts of

England and South Wales with clouds

0:32:070:32:09

and patchy rain, but our cold front

coming south will be more

0:32:090:32:12

significant. Some heavy bursts of

rain, strong and gusty winds, then

0:32:120:32:14

behind it we get into the cold air.

Aberdeen is just 1 degrees, while

0:32:140:32:16

Plymouth is eight, and as you can

see Pearson wintry showers starting

0:32:160:32:19

to push on. Quite a few across

Scotland, -- some wintry showers

0:32:190:32:27

starting to push in. A very similar

story for Northern Ireland and the

0:32:270:32:31

far north of England but notice the

further south we come across Finland

0:32:310:32:34

and Wales, the higher the

temperature is to start the day.

0:32:340:32:40

Another mild morning -- across

England and Wales. Patchy rain and

0:32:400:32:43

fairly gusty winds as well. The rain

in the South is what is left of our

0:32:430:32:49

cold front, clearing away to the

south during tomorrow morning.

0:32:490:32:52

Behind it the skies will brighten

and there will be plenty of sunshine

0:32:520:32:55

but we are into that cold here,

particularly with the strength of

0:32:550:32:59

the wind, gales and places. Still

some one tree showers to come across

0:32:590:33:03

the North and afternoon temperatures

of just 3-7 degrees. Thursday should

0:33:030:33:09

have fewer showers, some of the

north-east and perhaps one or two

0:33:090:33:13

out West, but a lot of dry weather

with some sunshine, still quite

0:33:130:33:16

windy particularly close to the east

coast, could be some big waves

0:33:160:33:20

crashing onto the shore line with

the gales. Friday, lighter winds so

0:33:200:33:24

perhaps a less chilly fuel and into

the weekend it looks like we will

0:33:240:33:28

bring in cloud and rain from the

West. Back to
