:01:41. > :01:47.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.

:01:48. > :01:52.At least ten people are dead and some 80 injured in one

:01:53. > :01:54.of Germany's worst train crashes for years.

:01:55. > :01:56.Two trains collided head-on early this morning when commuters

:01:57. > :02:01.Investigators will be looking at why an automatic braking system was not

:02:02. > :02:05.triggered but the first task is to take care of the survivors.

:02:06. > :02:07.The crash happened in a heavily wooded area in the Bavarian

:02:08. > :02:18.Jenny Hill is in Bad Aibling near the crash site.

:02:19. > :02:26.Yes, what began today this morning as a routine early morning commute

:02:27. > :02:31.for more than 100 people ended here in horror. Hundreds of people have

:02:32. > :02:34.today been involved with a search and rescue operation and now the

:02:35. > :02:40.investigation into what is one of the worst rail crashes to take place

:02:41. > :02:47.in Germany for many years. On a quiet commuter line the

:02:48. > :02:52.violence of a head-on collision. Inside the carriages chaos. This

:02:53. > :02:58.footage was taken just moments after the trains slammed into each other.

:02:59. > :03:01.I can't move my arm, one woman shouts. Don't worry, another

:03:02. > :03:07.passenger replies, the police will be here soon.

:03:08. > :03:15.The man who took this video escaped unhurt. There was blood everywhere.

:03:16. > :03:21.Because some people flew away and some hit their head on chairs or

:03:22. > :03:26.windows or armrest or something. A difficult rescue. The train line

:03:27. > :03:37.runs between a wooded hillside and a river. Easier to carry the dead and

:03:38. > :03:40.injured away by air or even water. TRANSLATION: The collision was

:03:41. > :03:45.head-on and high speed. The speed limit at the site is around 100

:03:46. > :03:49.kilometres an hour. There is a bend in that stretch of track so you have

:03:50. > :03:52.to assume the train drivers had little or any eye contact before the

:03:53. > :03:56.collision. Investigators have recovered two of three black boxes

:03:57. > :03:59.from the wreckage. The crash happened on a single track. Trains

:04:00. > :04:04.use a nearby station where there is a double track as a passing place.

:04:05. > :04:09.There is an automatic braking system here too designed to halt any train

:04:10. > :04:13.which crosses a stop signal. Joe, a regular commuter, told us his

:04:14. > :04:20.train usually stops and waits for the oncoming train to pass. This

:04:21. > :04:27.morning, he said, was different. Normally we - the train has to wait

:04:28. > :04:33.for five minutes for the oncoming train. Three minutes, waiting three

:04:34. > :04:38.minutes, the carriages suddenly set off. This has horrified Germany. A

:04:39. > :04:42.country where rail crashes are relatively rare. The German

:04:43. > :04:47.Chancellor, Angela Merkel, has said she's saddened and shocked by what's

:04:48. > :04:49.happened. Bear this in mind too, it's the school holidays, people

:04:50. > :04:56.here tell us that on a morning these trains would have been

:04:57. > :05:00.full of school children. As the light fades, the work

:05:01. > :05:05.continues. It will be weeks, perhaps months, before we really know what

:05:06. > :05:12.happened here. As you can see, that work continues

:05:13. > :05:17.tonight. One person is still said to be missing. Ten people are now

:05:18. > :05:21.reported dead. A further 18 people are still said to be critically

:05:22. > :05:28.injured. It's feared that the death toll here may yet rise.

:05:29. > :05:31.Age UK and the energy company E.On have suspended their partnership

:05:32. > :05:32.after criticism that elderly customers weren't getting

:05:33. > :05:37.The charity is accused of receiving millions of pounds every year

:05:38. > :05:39.in return for recommending expensive E.On tariffs.

:05:40. > :05:41.The deal is being investigated by the industry watchdog.

:05:42. > :05:50.It's the charity which makes millions of pounds from selling

:05:51. > :05:52.but after allegations that gas and electricity customers

:05:53. > :05:57.were overpaying it's called a halt to its energy offer.

:05:58. > :06:00.The head of Age UK's commercial activities told me his critics

:06:01. > :06:03.were wrong to say his two-year fixed rate energy deal was too expensive

:06:04. > :06:16.Every Age UK customer moves to E.On and has a full description

:06:17. > :06:17.of all the tariffs available to them.

:06:18. > :06:21.So you're not sorry that they might have got a cheaper deal elsewhere?

:06:22. > :06:23.In terms of a cheaper deal, you cannot compare a one-year fixed

:06:24. > :06:25.term deal with a two-year fixed term deal.

:06:26. > :06:31.This point seems to have been lost in the media.

:06:32. > :06:33.The two-year deal from energy giant E.On had the average user paying

:06:34. > :06:39.The Sun newspaper calculated that was ?245 more for some users

:06:40. > :06:42.than E.On's cheapest rate and Age UK received ?6 million from working

:06:43. > :06:52.just with E.On, including ?10 per sale.

:06:53. > :06:54.People will say that you were cosying up to one company

:06:55. > :06:57.so it was just one company's products.

:06:58. > :07:04.We choose carefully E.On as an organisation

:07:05. > :07:12.We will still be with E.On today if they're able to provide that same

:07:13. > :07:18.Yet, customers have been complaining and the energy firm behind the Sun's

:07:19. > :07:21.claims says Age UK should offer more choice.

:07:22. > :07:25.They shouldn't squander the position and the trust they have.

:07:26. > :07:28.Because if they start to show every deal on the market and encourage

:07:29. > :07:31.people to move, they could really transform the British energy market

:07:32. > :07:35.E.On admits its price would actually have gone up tonight if sales

:07:36. > :07:39.It says they'll now pause and reflect on what to do next.

:07:40. > :07:47.They're sick and they're vulnerable and yet 500 people a month

:07:48. > :07:49.with mental health problems in England are being sent more

:07:50. > :07:51.than 30 miles from their home for treatment.

:07:52. > :07:54.The author of an independent inquiry said the practice was unacceptable

:07:55. > :08:16.I knew I needed help. I knew I wasn't myself at all. I had a

:08:17. > :08:22.newborn baby. I couldn't even look after myself never mind a baby.

:08:23. > :08:24.Three months after Daniel's birth Sineal developed post natal

:08:25. > :08:30.depression. She felt overwhelmed, hopeless. She sought help. But no

:08:31. > :08:35.hospital beds were available locally in York so Sinead was sent to

:08:36. > :08:39.Northumberland, 100 miles away. I felt totally isolated. I felt lost

:08:40. > :08:43.and really stunned why I was there. Nothing familiar. I didn't know

:08:44. > :08:46.anyone. I knew if I had been in York I would have had family and friends

:08:47. > :08:50.to come and visit, to support me and encourage me to get better. You say

:08:51. > :08:56.you almost felt as though you were being punished for being ill? Yes t

:08:57. > :09:00.did feel like a punishment, as if I had done something wrong. I just

:09:01. > :09:04.felt that, you know, we're going backwards instead of forwards. Why

:09:05. > :09:09.are we sending our mothers 100 miles away to get treatment in this day

:09:10. > :09:13.and age? The mother and baby unit in York

:09:14. > :09:17.closed in 2010, before Sinead fell ill. Last October, the whole

:09:18. > :09:22.hospital was shut down. Inspectors closed it in a matter of days,

:09:23. > :09:27.finding it unfit for purpose. The closure of this hospital means there

:09:28. > :09:34.are now no acute NHS hospital beds in York. Since October, nearly 100

:09:35. > :09:38.patients have had to go elsewhere to get essential care, forced to travel

:09:39. > :09:43.in moments of crisis. Today's report estimates that each

:09:44. > :09:47.month 500 patients travel more than 30 miles for essential care.

:09:48. > :09:52.Research carried out last year found one patient had been taken Bristol

:09:53. > :09:59.to Livingston, 370 miles, and another from Cumbria to London, a

:10:00. > :10:02.distance of 270 miles. Too many people are taken too far to

:10:03. > :10:06.receive treatment. If somebody had a stroke or a heart attack and this is

:10:07. > :10:09.the sort of physical equivalent of some of the severely mentally ill

:10:10. > :10:14.people I am talking about, they would be treated locally and

:10:15. > :10:17.quickly. For decades, the NHS has been closing psychiatric wards. The

:10:18. > :10:21.demand for help is on the rise, so patients are being forced to travel.

:10:22. > :10:25.Ministers haven't committed to ending the practice within 18 months

:10:26. > :10:28.as today's report recommends, but in the Commons today the support of the

:10:29. > :10:33.-- they supported the principle. We want to reduce out of area

:10:34. > :10:38.placements and the NHS is working on that to move to a definitive target

:10:39. > :10:44.to reduce that. Hopefully eventually to scrap it. Sinead has fully

:10:45. > :10:49.recovered and campaigns for local mother and babup units, committed to

:10:50. > :10:53.ensuring no other families are split by poor provision. No matter how low

:10:54. > :10:54.you can be, you do recover but I look back and think it was a

:10:55. > :11:01.terrible time. A police officer and a community

:11:02. > :11:04.support officer have been jailed for misconduct following

:11:05. > :11:05.the vigilante murder Bijan Ebrahimi was beaten to death

:11:06. > :11:09.and his body set on fire by a neighbour who wrongly believed

:11:10. > :11:12.he was a paedophile. The judge said the two officers had

:11:13. > :11:14.regarded Mr Ebrahimi as a nuisance and had not done

:11:15. > :11:19.enough to protect him. The race to be the next President

:11:20. > :11:24.of the United States People in the key state

:11:25. > :11:27.of New Hampshire have started to cast their votes to choose

:11:28. > :11:30.candidates for both Republicans Our North America editor Jon Sopel

:11:31. > :11:42.is live in the city of Manchester, Welcome to this polling station

:11:43. > :11:48.where they're talking about record turnouts. If you had said a few

:11:49. > :11:52.months ago that two outsiders, Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders

:11:53. > :11:55.would be the winners of the New Hampshire primary, people would have

:11:56. > :12:00.said you were crazy. But it's a mark of the disillusionment felt for

:12:01. > :12:01.mainstream politicians and Washington politics that that seems

:12:02. > :12:09.to be the most likely outcome. I hear we're going to do well,

:12:10. > :12:12.but the snow is out there. But in the blizzard of predictions

:12:13. > :12:18.about New Hampshire, the one constant has been the real

:12:19. > :12:21.estate mogul in the lead. In the polls no-one is even close,

:12:22. > :12:24.which makes the battle all the more intense for which mainstream

:12:25. > :12:29.Republican is going to take him on. Senator Marco Rubio,

:12:30. > :12:32.young, emerged from On the streets of New Hampshire

:12:33. > :12:40.he's faced protesters. But at the weekend, in the final

:12:41. > :12:42.televised Republican debate, he was subject to a brutal

:12:43. > :12:45.political mugging. You see everybody I want the people

:12:46. > :12:48.at home to think about this. The drive-by shot at the beginning

:12:49. > :12:58.with incorrect and incomplete information and then

:12:59. > :13:01.the memorised 25-second speech. That is exactly what they just gave

:13:02. > :13:02.you. The kicking came from the New Jersey

:13:03. > :13:05.governor, Chris Christie. I spoke to him last night

:13:06. > :13:07.about what impact his It makes a big change

:13:08. > :13:15.to the entire race. There was a march by the media

:13:16. > :13:18.towards Senator Rubio, that march is now over

:13:19. > :13:21.because they know he's not ready. Has it risen for

:13:22. > :13:22.governor Christie then? But all that is now in the hands

:13:23. > :13:27.of these people - the voters. Donald Trump has led hear

:13:28. > :13:29.in New Hampshire in every His challenge today is to turn

:13:30. > :13:34.a poll lead into actual votes, something he failed

:13:35. > :13:37.to do in Iowa last week. On the Democrat side, Bernie Sanders

:13:38. > :13:41.has a similar challenge. But this is a state that has

:13:42. > :13:45.a history of springing surprises. This is the fervour that you find

:13:46. > :13:51.at a Bernie Sanders rally, young people, and the not so young,

:13:52. > :13:54.believing that a different type of politics is possible

:13:55. > :13:56.from Vermont's veteran socialist All of which has left

:13:57. > :14:04.Hillary Clinton, the runaway favourite from six months ago,

:14:42. > :14:44.again, what's the truth behind the Government's claim that you're

:14:45. > :14:47.more likely to die if admitted Coming up on Reporting

:14:48. > :14:49.Scotland at 6.30pm. We speak to some of the people

:14:50. > :14:53.who live and work along the A9 in the first of a series of special

:14:54. > :14:56.reports on Scotland's longest road. And, Scottish music stalwarts Runrig

:14:57. > :14:58.tell us why they're calling Electric power generated

:14:59. > :15:09.by exploiting the ebb and flow That's the revolutionary idea behind

:15:10. > :15:14.the Swansea Tidal Lagoon, but construction has been put

:15:15. > :15:17.on hold because the company behind it is still waiting to find out how

:15:18. > :15:20.much money the Government will put Here's Hywell Griffith

:15:21. > :15:36.on what should be a world Yes, a world first. It has been many

:15:37. > :15:39.years in planning, followed by many months in stalled negotiations over

:15:40. > :15:42.how much public money the Government would be prepared to put behind it.

:15:43. > :15:50.The company behind the project tell me they now need a decision in a

:15:51. > :15:54.matter of weeks if it's to go-ahead. They face questions about whether

:15:55. > :15:58.the expense of subsidising sea power is a cost bill payers are prepared

:15:59. > :16:03.to face. The endless ebb and flow that could be powering homes.

:16:04. > :16:09.Tapping into tidal power isn't new, but what's being planned here would

:16:10. > :16:12.be a world first. The building of an artificial lagoon with turbines in

:16:13. > :16:17.the sea wall would be the first of six around Britain. It's claimed

:16:18. > :16:21.that together they could generate 8% of the UK's electricity. After a

:16:22. > :16:27.year of Government negotiations, the company says it now needs an answer

:16:28. > :16:31.in weeks. The eyes of the world are on Swansea Basically bay. We have a

:16:32. > :16:35.project that is ready to start. We have a turbine and generator

:16:36. > :16:40.industry that is primed to deliver the project. And, to be in the water

:16:41. > :16:43.behind us, one year from now, takes one year of preparation. Building a

:16:44. > :16:48.world first clearly doesn't come cheap. The cost of this lagoon has

:16:49. > :16:51.already doubled to ?1 billion. The company say it is can't go-ahead

:16:52. > :16:55.without a Government subsidy, but that would mean adding to the

:16:56. > :17:01.electricity bills of every household in Britain. How expensive would it

:17:02. > :17:07.be? Is the company was looking to sell its electricity for ?168 per

:17:08. > :17:13.megawatt hour, subsidised by the Government for 35 years. That was

:17:14. > :17:20.higher than the ?92. 50 agreed for the new nuclear reactor at Hinkley.

:17:21. > :17:24.The latest price for tidal could be down to ?96. 50 but a subsidy

:17:25. > :17:29.lasting for # 0 years. Some say it's still a bad deal. Will prove to It

:17:30. > :17:32.be potentially the most expensive form of producing electricity that

:17:33. > :17:38.the Government could possibly support -- 90. It should

:17:45. > :17:51.how they will meet the nation's electricity needs. This factory

:17:52. > :18:00.another 100 employees are under threat. Working on the tidal lagoon

:18:01. > :18:05.could spark opts missism. We can see know other attractions coming

:18:06. > :18:08.forward to employ the skilled people into this new industry. It's

:18:09. > :18:12.fabulous opportunity. The Government says it is still considering if the

:18:13. > :18:14.lagoon is in the best interests of bill payers as it tries to decide if

:18:15. > :18:24.it wants to take the plunge. Junior doctors in England will stage

:18:25. > :18:27.their second strike tomorrow. Last minute talks have failed

:22:06. > :22:08.who've missed out on tickets They say loyal supporters should

:22:09. > :22:12.have been on a priority list as a reward for attending

:22:13. > :22:17.more qualifying games. Fans of the Wales team have

:22:18. > :22:21.complained of the same problem. Would you or have you allowed your

:22:22. > :22:25.10, 11 or 12-year-old to use You shouldn't because the minimum

:22:26. > :22:29.age is 13 and yet a survey commissioned by BBC's Newsround,

:22:30. > :22:31.to mark Safer Internet Day, has found that more than three-quarters

:22:32. > :22:41.of 10-12-year-olds have Facebook, Instagram and YouTube,

:22:42. > :22:47.some of the world's most successful online companies. Some of the most

:22:48. > :22:50.popular with 10-12-year-olds. That's dispute rules saying you need to be

:22:51. > :22:54.13 or over to sign-up. Why are they so popular? We asked children at

:22:55. > :23:00.this school in the north-east of England. I signed up to Facebook

:23:01. > :23:05.because I try to talk to my friends outside of school if I couldn't see

:23:06. > :23:09.them in person. I use Instagram because it's really easy to get in

:23:10. > :23:13.touch with your friends. I have Instagram, I just use that to share

:23:14. > :23:18.photos. You sound nice. Would you send me a selfie? Lynette Smith

:23:19. > :23:24.advises children on internet safety. Today, she is talking to seven and

:23:25. > :23:29.eight-year-olds about staying safe online. We actually know that Tessa

:23:30. > :23:34.common place that we will have under 13s that are using social media.

:23:35. > :23:38.It's far too easy to just set up an account. In our experience, it's a

:23:39. > :23:44.lot of parents that are setting up their children's accounts. While the

:23:45. > :23:48.survey found most children had positive experiences online, more

:23:49. > :23:51.than one in five 10-12-year-olds with a social media account said

:23:52. > :23:56.they had been bullied. One of my friends has been quite badly bullied

:23:57. > :24:01.on a social networking site. It affected her quite bad. She has

:24:02. > :24:05.never been on it since. I've never seen bullying going on. I haven't

:24:06. > :24:09.been bullied. I haven't seen anyone. I know it can happen and it can be

:24:10. > :24:14.really bad. Are social networks doing enough themselves to help

:24:15. > :24:21.prevent bully from their sites. They have places where you can report

:24:22. > :24:24.bullying. A third of 10-128-year-olds said they couldn't

:24:25. > :24:31.don't take bullying seriously enough. We spoke to Snapchat and

:24:32. > :24:36.Facebook, they didn't want to do an interview. Instagram said safety was

:24:37. > :24:42.its number one priority and it worked closely with experts. With so

:24:43. > :24:44.many ignoring restrictions, many believe more effort is needed to

:24:45. > :24:50.enforce them. There's more information on that

:24:54. > :24:55.to stay safe online. Andy Murray has a new title

:27:15. > :27:18.clearer skies around. Actually, as we go through the night, we will see

:27:23. > :27:25.moving across southern counties. Behind that clearer skies. Wintry

:28:21. > :28:25.weather around on Thursday, bar the odd wintry shower, most likely to
