:00:23. > :00:32.TRANSLATION: Today's event is a stab in the back which has been given to

:00:33. > :00:42.us by the accomplices The incident has caused a diplomatic

:00:49. > :00:50.people seriously injured. NHS England gets a spending boost

:00:51. > :00:53.of almost ?4 billion next year but there are concerns

:00:54. > :00:55.about possible cuts elsewhere. The Hatton Garden heist -

:00:56. > :00:57.a jury hears the mastermind pulled out after

:00:58. > :01:00.the first attempt failed, the gang And on Reporting Scotland at 6.30...

:01:01. > :01:04.MP Natalie McGarry withdraws from the SNP whip over a police inquiry

:01:05. > :01:07.into campaign group finances. And could Scotland deal with a

:01:08. > :01:09.terrorist attack like the one in Paris? The Police Federation say

:01:10. > :01:29.we're under prepared. Good evening and welcome to the

:01:30. > :01:31.BBC News at six. Russia has reacted with fury

:01:32. > :01:34.after one of its fighter jets was shot down by the Turkish military

:01:35. > :01:37.near Turkey's border with Syria. Turkey insisted the aircraft had

:01:38. > :01:39.violated its airspace and had been warned repeatedly to

:01:40. > :01:42.leave, but President Putin said the jet was over Syria and called

:01:43. > :01:45.the incident a stab in the back The two man crew ejected before the

:01:46. > :02:02.plane came down just inside Syria. In a moment, the latest from Russia,

:02:03. > :02:13.but first Mark Lowen reports and collapsing into flames, a

:02:14. > :02:26.Russian jet plunges through the skies above the downed by a Turkish

:02:27. > :02:32.strike, the plane is the explosion visible from afar, acrid smoke

:02:33. > :02:37.billowing above. It is the cost, says Turkey, of Russia violating its

:02:38. > :02:41.airspace. Just visible, the parachutes of the pilots escaping

:02:42. > :02:48.the crash. Russian helicopters were sent in to search for them but

:02:49. > :02:55.Syrian rebels said Turkey immediately released an image which

:02:56. > :02:59.it said shows the route Su-24. The flight path appears to cross the

:03:00. > :03:03.Syrian border into Turkey, Moscow denies it. The Turkish prime

:03:04. > :03:07.minister insisted its country had simply carried out the rules of

:03:08. > :03:12.engagement and the Russian plane had been warned ten times. TRANSLATION:

:03:13. > :03:15.We have never been a country with designs against another country but

:03:16. > :03:23.everyone should know Turkey has the right to respond if its airspace is

:03:24. > :03:29.violated, this is what everyone feared might happen when Russia

:03:30. > :03:33.began but a crowded airspace and rival allegiances could provoke an

:03:34. > :03:38.incident. This is not just Turkey against Russia, Ankara is a vital

:03:39. > :03:47.Nato member with a military alliance behind it. The fear is this so, why

:03:48. > :03:54.did Turkey strike now? In recent days Russia has targeted this

:03:55. > :03:59.minoritys, a Turkish speaking ethnic group who have been fighting against

:04:00. > :04:03.the Assad regime and are strongly supported by Ankara. They say their

:04:04. > :04:06.fighters shot and killed the Russian pilots but the Turkish authorities

:04:07. > :04:13.say that is untrue and both pilots are alive and trying to like a

:04:14. > :04:18.fireball in the sky, the first time a Russian jet has been shot down by

:04:19. > :04:34.a Nato member in over half a century. This is in Syria, this is

:04:35. > :04:47.the heart this month, the Russians gave us to Su-24. They said the war

:04:48. > :04:53.on terror was going to plan but hadn't planned on Turkey shooting

:04:54. > :05:01.down one when it came, the Kremlin's reaction was one of

:05:02. > :05:05.disbelief we have been stabbed in the back by the accomplices of

:05:06. > :05:09.terrorism, President Putin said, and promised there would be serious

:05:10. > :05:12.consequences for Turkey. Vladimir Putin is known for his strong

:05:13. > :05:16.language but it doesn't get much stronger than this, equating Turkey

:05:17. > :05:25.with terrorists, Nato with Islamic State, and pledging Russia will not

:05:26. > :05:29.stand by while such Moscow insists its air force is operating solely

:05:30. > :05:34.over Syria and that the fighter jet that was shot down today had not

:05:35. > :05:39.crossed into Turkey, but Russian jets have strayed into Turkish

:05:40. > :05:43.airspace before. Those violations recorded at Nato's command centre.

:05:44. > :05:50.Last month the Alliance accused Moscow of irresponsible behaviour

:05:51. > :05:54.but where does relations between Russia I think never for the last

:05:55. > :05:59.probably 50 years did we have anything as significant in terms of

:06:00. > :06:09.Russia and Nato or air confrontation, especially is there

:06:10. > :06:14.is a message on this bomb, revenge for Paris. Moscow insists its air

:06:15. > :06:18.strikes are all about destroying international terrorism and that the

:06:19. > :06:28.shooting down of one of its jets will not halt

:06:29. > :06:31.President Obama has been speaking in Washington in the past hour about

:06:32. > :06:34.the downing of the Russian warplane and about the fight against

:06:35. > :06:37.so-called Islamic State. Our North America Editor, Jon Sopel, is there.

:06:38. > :06:46.just when you of Syria cannot get any more intractable, another layer

:06:47. > :06:51.of complex of tea arrives with the downing of that Turkish plane, and

:06:52. > :07:01.this on a day when there was encouraging that Russians could be

:07:02. > :07:05.brought. Inevitably it was the first question Barack Obama was asked in

:07:06. > :07:11.the news conference, still going on behind me, and this

:07:12. > :07:13.Turkey, like every country, has a right to defend

:07:14. > :07:16.I think it's very important right now

:07:17. > :07:20.for us to make sure that both the Russians and the Turks are talking

:07:21. > :07:23.to each other, and find out exactly what happened, and take measures to

:07:24. > :07:43.he went on to say the Russians were taking huge risks in operating so

:07:44. > :07:48.close to the Turkish border. We await the Russian reaction, in the

:07:49. > :07:54.meantime it is fair to say that in Washington and elsewhere, anxiety

:07:55. > :07:57.Alton Towers says human error was to blame for the roller-coaster crash

:07:58. > :08:00.this year, which left five people seriously injured. A report by the

:08:01. > :08:03.theme park said the ride's safety control systems had been manually

:08:04. > :08:06.overridden. Two young women who were trapped for hours on the Smiler ride

:08:07. > :08:09.had to have amputations as a result of the accident last June. Sian

:08:10. > :08:28.the theme park is now closed for Smiler has been closed for almost

:08:29. > :08:31.six months. News today that it will reopen and human error is to blame

:08:32. > :08:35.for the crash has come out of the blue for many of the victims. The

:08:36. > :08:46.company is refusing to say whether anyone will lose their jobs, but the

:08:47. > :08:53.victims say they want to -- Health and Safety Executive report before

:08:54. > :08:57.making the Smiler ride was grounded in June. This is how it looked when

:08:58. > :09:03.emergency services rushed to the scene. 16 people were injured when

:09:04. > :09:13.two carriages collided. We now know that staff had made a mistake, it

:09:14. > :09:18.resulted in life changing consequences these four were sitting

:09:19. > :09:23.in the front row. The two young women both her legs amputated

:09:24. > :09:28.following the crash. After completing its the owners of Merlin

:09:29. > :09:35.Entertainments, reveals today that human error was to blame. Staff had

:09:36. > :09:39.wrongly restarted the Smiler, overriding the control system. There

:09:40. > :09:44.were no technical or mechanical issues at fault. When the new season

:09:45. > :09:49.begins in March, Alton Towers said the Smiler will be open for business

:09:50. > :09:56.but with improved safety. The changes include more CCTV cameras

:09:57. > :10:00.being installed staff will be given enhanced training, and perhaps

:10:01. > :10:08.crucially there will be no manual override without Vicky Balch has had

:10:09. > :10:12.to learn to walk again. Many of the victims said tonight it was too

:10:13. > :10:19.early to comment on today's developments but Vicky has told the

:10:20. > :10:24.BBC how her it is indescribable, it hurts so much and I can still feel

:10:25. > :10:31.how it did feel, if you will. Members of the Health and Safety

:10:32. > :10:47.Executive examined the Smiler ride immediately their findings have yet

:10:48. > :10:50.The NHS in England is to get an extra ?3.8 billion next year.

:10:51. > :10:53.The money is to pay partly for a full seven day-a-week health

:10:54. > :10:56.But news of the extra money comes a day before the

:10:57. > :10:58.Chancellor's Autumn Statement, in which he's expected to outline

:10:59. > :11:09.A day ahead of the main Spending Review and the Chancellor, George

:11:10. > :11:12.Osborne, has given NHS leaders what they want for next year,

:11:13. > :11:15.but in return they have to become more efficient

:11:16. > :11:20.We are giving money up front so the NHS can implement its own plan

:11:21. > :11:24.There have to be savings elsewhere in Government spending to pay

:11:25. > :11:27.for this, but it just goes to show, you can only have a strong NHS

:11:28. > :11:31.The spending deal for NHS England sees ?3.8 billion extra

:11:32. > :11:34.above inflation allocated for next year, it then sees steady rises to

:11:35. > :11:37.fulfil an election pledge and reach more than 8 billion extra by 2020.

:11:38. > :11:40.Ministers say that all comes on top of the 2 billion invested

:11:41. > :11:44.Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland's budget will go up as well.

:11:45. > :11:48.Details will become clear in the Spending Review.

:11:49. > :11:51.The effectiveness of the NHS depends not just on cash but also

:11:52. > :11:54.If there's pressure on care homes, for example,

:11:55. > :11:59.it's harder to discharge elderly patients from hospital.

:12:00. > :12:02.In the last few years social care funding in England has been reduced

:12:03. > :12:05.and in many ways that's made the NHS's task more difficult.

:12:06. > :12:07.What we don't yet know is whether cuts will continue or

:12:08. > :12:10.whether social care budgets will be held steady, that will only become

:12:11. > :12:15.clear in the Spending Review announcement tomorrow.

:12:16. > :12:17.Care home providers are concerned that the Government

:12:18. > :12:25.I think this is good news for the NHS but I think we must

:12:26. > :12:28.understand there is a crisis in social care, and the NHS and social

:12:29. > :12:47.-- interdependent. You cannot support one bit of the system

:12:48. > :12:49.without putting money into social care.

:12:50. > :12:52.And even the head of NHS England, while happy with his deal,

:12:53. > :12:53.acknowledges that social care needs a major overhaul.

:12:54. > :12:57.What we are clearly going to need is not only new resourcing for social

:12:58. > :13:00.care but I think we will have to have a big debate in this country

:13:01. > :13:03.about how to ensure social care services are fit for the future,

:13:04. > :13:07.The Chancellor is emphasising NHS investment

:13:08. > :13:10.but pushing through cuts in other areas of health spending, including

:13:11. > :13:12.public health services like smoking cessation, run by local councils.

:13:13. > :13:15.Some might argue that reducing prevention is hardly going to be

:13:16. > :13:30.Almost half a million children could have been sexually abused in England

:13:31. > :13:32.between 2012 and 2014, that's according to the Office

:13:33. > :13:36.It estimates only one in eight of them come to the attention

:13:37. > :13:38.of authorities, partly because most abuse is carried

:13:39. > :13:46.Here's our social affairs correspondent, Alison Holt.

:13:47. > :13:55., in the homes where they should be safe, according to today's's report

:13:56. > :13:59.the majority of children facing sexual abuse go unnoticed and

:14:00. > :14:17.unprotected. They are easy prey for abusers within one of Maurice's

:14:25. > :14:30.mother but of course he got me again and said you've it is only between

:14:31. > :14:38.me and you but I'm only doing it to you so nobody else should do it, I'm

:14:39. > :14:41.only teaching you. That's the. The children's Commissioners report

:14:42. > :14:44.analysed data from police and councils in England, reviewed

:14:45. > :14:48.existing evidence and carried out probably the largest ever survey of

:14:49. > :14:57.abuse survivors. Based on that, it estimates over two years and 450,000

:14:58. > :15:02.children were sexually abused but only one in eight was known to the

:15:03. > :15:10.authorities. It also says 66% of child sexual abuse is perpetrated by

:15:11. > :15:18.family members or most children say they don't know how to tell, or they

:15:19. > :15:23.are too afraid to tell, so most won't the service because of that

:15:24. > :15:31.and we need to recognise that and change it. They need a child or

:15:32. > :15:36.young person to tell them what happened many who reported the abuse

:15:37. > :15:41.were 12 or over, but for many the abuse had started years before. I

:15:42. > :15:45.think this has got to be a watershed moment for all partners and agencies

:15:46. > :15:57.involved in child protection matters. We like Maurice, many who

:15:58. > :16:01.have been abused only tell their stories as adults.

:16:02. > :16:05.The report says teachers, police and other professionals need more

:16:06. > :16:09.training to spot signs of abuse, as part of a drive to protect children

:16:52. > :16:55.The President of World Athletics, Lord Coe,

:16:56. > :17:04.is facing fresh allegations of a conflict of interest over his

:17:05. > :17:32.role as an international adviser for the global sportswear giant, Nike.

:17:33. > :17:35.Lord Coe became the president of the IAAF this year. The organisation

:17:36. > :17:38.has been plunged into crisis amidst allegations of corruption and

:17:39. > :17:40.bribery under his predecessor, Lamine Diack. Now a BBC

:17:41. > :17:42.investigation has revealed Lord Coe's role in the controversial

:17:43. > :17:44.awarding of a major athletics championships to the American city

:17:45. > :17:47.of Eugene. He had discussed the bid with a senior Nike executive. Our

:17:48. > :17:50.Correspondent, Mark Daly, has this exclusive report - and we should

:17:51. > :17:51.warn you it contains flash photography.

:17:52. > :17:55.He's the most powerful man in a sport he once graced as an athlete.

:17:56. > :17:56.But tonight, World Athletics Chief, Lord Coe,

:17:57. > :17:59.is facing more questions about an alleged conflict of interest over

:18:00. > :18:02.his paid ambassadorial role with the global sports giants, Nike.

:18:03. > :18:05.In April this year, after a controversial IAAF vote, the

:18:06. > :18:07.2021 World Athletics Championships were awarded here to Eugene, Oregon,

:18:08. > :18:11.Vin Lananna is head of Track Town USA, the organisation

:18:12. > :18:14.behind the Eugene bid which also has close links to Nike.

:18:15. > :18:16.Vin Lananna is on record saying that Nike played no role

:18:17. > :18:23.in the bid process nor, he said, did Lord Coe other than to vote.

:18:24. > :18:26.But we've obtained an internal Nike email which could call that claim

:18:27. > :18:30.It's an email from a senior Nike executive to Lananna

:18:31. > :18:48.He made clear his support for 2021 in Eugene, but made equally clear

:18:49. > :18:50.he'd reached out to Diack specifically on this topic and got

:18:51. > :18:54.a clear statement from Diack that, 'I'm not going to take any action at

:18:55. > :18:58.the April meeting to choose a 2021 site'." But the opposite happened

:18:59. > :19:01.at that meeting and Diack announced a surprise vote to give the

:19:02. > :19:08.The vote went through, 23-2, and came as a shock to

:19:09. > :19:12.the former head of Swedish athletics who had been preparing a rival bid

:19:13. > :19:18.Bjorn Eriksson is also the former head of Interpol.

:19:19. > :19:29.I would very much like to hear the explanation to this.

:19:30. > :19:37.Lord Coe denied he'd lobbied for Eugene and said 2021 represented

:19:38. > :19:40.a unique political and financial opportunity to bring

:19:41. > :19:45."Seb believed the usual process would be followed

:19:46. > :19:48.and encouraged Eugene to enter the bidding cycle for 2021, which

:19:49. > :19:54.He sought clarity from President Diack when asked by Eugene

:19:55. > :19:57.and Gothenburg about the 2021 bidding process and received

:19:58. > :20:02.assurances that no decision would be made at the April council meeting."

:20:03. > :20:07."All of Lord Coe's interests were declared to the

:20:08. > :20:14.But Lord Coe may still face questions over why, whilst

:20:15. > :20:17.a vice-president of IAAF, he was discussing its business with Nike.

:20:18. > :20:34.With me now is Dan, Rowan. Where does it leave Lord Coe and its

:20:35. > :20:39.sports? It's the last time athletics need when it's trying to gain

:20:40. > :20:44.confidence and trust back from the public after a damning doping report

:20:45. > :20:49.which received state-sponsored doping in Russia. They were band

:20:55. > :20:59.cover-ups. The governing body of the sport itself, IAAF. It's Lord Coe's

:21:00. > :21:11.job to clean up track and field. Many have questioned whether it's

:21:12. > :21:17.right one that Nike pay him a six figure sum to be an ambassador. MPs

:21:18. > :21:22.will ask him, why it was, despite his insis tans he is guilty of no

:21:23. > :21:28.wrong-doing, no conflict of interest, he was in discussion with

:21:29. > :21:32.a senior Nike executivive over the 2021 bid and whether the time has

:21:33. > :22:04.come to end that association with Nike.

:23:46. > :23:50.be able to get in, will we? They did get in. Making off with ?14 million

:23:51. > :23:58.worth of jewellery on Easter Sunday morning. Six weeks later, they were

:23:59. > :24:02.caught. The gang's ringleaders including Danielle Jones pleaded

:24:03. > :24:07.guilty to the burglary in September. Last month Danielle Jones brought

:24:08. > :24:11.police here to this North London emindustry to show him where he

:24:12. > :24:16.buried some of the jewellery under this memorial stone to a relative of

:24:17. > :24:21.his wife. Detectives asked him if he had any more of the stolen property.

:24:22. > :24:27.He said he hadn't. A week earlier police had discovered a a second

:24:28. > :24:34.stash of jewellery 20 meters away under a memorial to another member

:24:35. > :24:36.of the family. To this date only a third of the loot stolen at Hatton

:24:37. > :24:42.Garden has been discovered. Andy Murray says he has no doubts

:24:43. > :24:45.about safety in Belgium as he prepares there for Britain's

:24:46. > :24:47.biggest tennis match in decades. The Davis Cup final will go ahead

:24:48. > :24:50.as scheduled in Ghent, with Belgium the opponents, despite the ongoing

:24:51. > :24:55.security issues in Brussels. It's a competition Great Britain

:24:56. > :24:57.have not won since the 1930s. Andy Murray's not hiding, he's just

:24:58. > :25:08.a bit cold, even indoors in Belgium He's in Ghent, only 30 miles

:25:09. > :25:12.from Brussels, but at ease. Here there is no need

:25:13. > :25:15.to lock all the doors. Security is discreet

:25:16. > :25:18.for what tennis calls its World Cup Naturally, it's vital for Britain

:25:19. > :25:23.that Andy Murray is happy. Obviously,

:25:24. > :25:26.had to delay the trip by a day. You know, which wasn't ideal,

:25:27. > :25:29.but I think, you know, I know in Brussels it's

:25:30. > :25:38.a slightly different situation. spectators won't be able to bring

:25:39. > :25:47.anything inside the venue, which is really just a huge warehouse that's

:25:48. > :25:52.been adapted for tennis. Even

:25:53. > :25:54.the clay court you can see behind But you know this place could become

:25:55. > :25:58.as famous as any 1978 was the last time Great Britain

:25:59. > :26:04.reached the final of the Davis Cup. Decisive match won

:26:05. > :26:09.by a youngster called McEnroe. Well, Belgium have no-one

:26:10. > :26:13.in that league, but their tennis team is a positive focus in

:26:14. > :26:18.challenging times in the country. We've no doubts that

:26:19. > :26:22.we will be safe here. We cannot do anything

:26:23. > :26:38.about security. We have to see that we

:26:39. > :26:41.can get ready as a team. Andy Murray can play two singles

:26:42. > :26:44.matches and one doubles Sometimes the gift of sport

:26:45. > :26:55.is to make life seem simple. Hello. This particularure was sent
