:01:30. > :01:31.A mother has been found guilty of murdering her 21-month-old

:01:32. > :01:33.daughter, just weeks after after social services had

:01:34. > :01:36.discussed taking the little girl back into care.

:01:37. > :01:38.Kathryn Smith was also convicted of cruelty

:01:39. > :01:42.whose injuries were so severe they were compared to those

:01:43. > :01:48.Her stepfather, Matthew Rigby, has been convicted of causing

:01:49. > :01:54.Ayeeshia had been known to social services all her life but chances

:01:55. > :01:57.to stop the abuse that killed her were repeatedly missed.

:01:58. > :02:06.Viewers may find some of the details in Dan Johnson's report distressing.

:02:07. > :02:15.A normal, happy, smiling toddler, known as AJ. But before her second

:02:16. > :02:21.birthday, Ayeeshia Smith was killed by her own mother. This is the 999

:02:22. > :02:30.call Kathryn Smith made that day. My daughter is not breathing. How old

:02:31. > :02:34.is she? She is nearly two. Can you see no breathing at all? She is

:02:35. > :02:43.breathing -- not breathing, she's floppy. Where is she at the moment?

:02:44. > :02:50.On the floor. Can you hear any air coming from her mouth? No, there is

:02:51. > :02:54.nothing, she's gone. Any hope of saving her had gone, her heart torn

:02:55. > :02:58.by an impact as forceful as a car crash, but Kathryn Smith's concern

:02:59. > :03:03.was for herself and concealing what she had done. In court, she blamed

:03:04. > :03:08.her partner, Mathew Reed B, who blamed her. He was cleared of murder

:03:09. > :03:14.but convicted of allowing Ayeeshia's death. Which you have gone on to be,

:03:15. > :03:19.we will never know. What would she have become. Where would she get to

:03:20. > :03:25.in life? But was there a chance she could have been saved? Smith and

:03:26. > :03:30.Rigby had a stormy relationship. She was a cannabis user who kept the

:03:31. > :03:33.drug in her daughter's beaker. He had previous convictions for

:03:34. > :03:37.assault. Mabil is often heard them Rowling and social services had been

:03:38. > :03:43.involved throughout Ayeeshia's short life. She was taken into foster care

:03:44. > :03:49.and then returned to live with her mother, Bush soon showed signs of

:03:50. > :03:54.neglect. In January 2014 she was taken to hospital with cuts to her

:03:55. > :03:59.lip and chin. She was back months later having discussed a is easier

:04:00. > :04:01.described as life threatening. Social services discussed an

:04:02. > :04:07.intervention but within months, she was dead. Do you think this could

:04:08. > :04:10.have been stopped? If there are lessons to be learned, hopefully

:04:11. > :04:21.they will be teased out and learn from. This was another emergency

:04:22. > :04:28.call from the flat. He is going to cut himself and try and blame it on

:04:29. > :04:32.me. Put it down. That was made just weeks before Ayeeshia's death. There

:04:33. > :04:36.will now be a review involving all of the agencies who had contact with

:04:37. > :04:40.Ayeeshia, to see if more could have been done to save her young life.

:04:41. > :04:45.And Dan Johnson's at Birmingham Crown Court for us this evening.

:04:46. > :04:52.She came to the attention of social services even in the womb, and yet

:04:53. > :04:56.chances were missed to save her. Yes, that is another peculiar aspect

:04:57. > :05:02.of this case has been deeply disturbing. Ayeeshia's mother was

:05:03. > :05:07.described in court as being a vulnerable person herself, as a

:05:08. > :05:11.young, single mother in a string of difficult relationships with

:05:12. > :05:16.different men. A statement was read to the court on behalf of Ayeeshia's

:05:17. > :05:19.natural father, who said he felt guilty that he had not been around,

:05:20. > :05:24.had not been there to protect his daughter from the people he said she

:05:25. > :05:28.should have been able to trust. But he also said he felt let down by a

:05:29. > :05:33.system that should have been there to protect his daughter. There will

:05:34. > :05:37.now be that safeguarding review and Kathryn Smith and her partner,

:05:38. > :05:38.Mathew Reed B, we'll be back here on Monday to find out what their

:05:39. > :05:43.sentence will be. -- Matthew Rigby. In the last hour it's been reported

:05:44. > :05:46.that a key suspect in last year's terror attacks in Paris,

:05:47. > :05:49.and possibly the more recent attacks in Brussels,

:05:50. > :05:50.has been arrested. He's one of a number of people

:05:51. > :05:53.who've been seized by Belgian police Let's find out more from our Europe

:05:54. > :06:06.correspondent Damian Grammaticas Just a couple of hours ago, news

:06:07. > :06:10.started coming through more arrests being made in Brussels by armed

:06:11. > :06:14.police in connection with their terrorist enquiries. Somewhere in

:06:15. > :06:18.the Anderlecht district on the other side of the city centre. Prosecutors

:06:19. > :06:23.have not confirmed who they have in custody but the state broadcaster

:06:24. > :06:27.and French police sources are saying that Mohamed Abrini is in custody,

:06:28. > :06:34.one of the most significant men still sought in connection with the

:06:35. > :06:38.Paris attacks. He has been hunted since last November, Mohamed Abrini.

:06:39. > :06:43.Belgian police say he is dangerous and believe he was linked to the

:06:44. > :06:48.Paris attacks. This is why. He was seen at a service station two days

:06:49. > :06:53.before the attacks in Paris. The car he was driving was one of those used

:06:54. > :06:56.to attack Paris. The man he was with at the time was Sally Abdeslam, one

:06:57. > :07:03.of the team that carried out the carnage in Paris. Abdeslam, Europe's

:07:04. > :07:06.most wanted man was finally detained three weeks ago in the Molenbeek

:07:07. > :07:11.district of Brussels, after being on the run for months. Today's arrest

:07:12. > :07:15.is thought to have taken place in nearby Anderlecht. Yesterday

:07:16. > :07:19.investigators released this footage of the Brussels airport bombing,

:07:20. > :07:24.showing the third attacker, the man in the Hat, who left a suitcase bomb

:07:25. > :07:28.and escaped from the terminal, then travelled six miles on foot into

:07:29. > :07:31.Brussels before he vanished. It has been reported the new footage and

:07:32. > :07:34.the appeal to help identify the man in the Hat lead to new teapots from

:07:35. > :07:41.the public which came just before today's new arrests. Belgian

:07:42. > :07:45.prosecutors have said they will give more information. We are waiting for

:07:46. > :07:48.that. If it is confirmed it is Abrini, that would be a significant

:07:49. > :07:53.step forward in their investigations. Some suggestions

:07:54. > :07:57.that they may confirm that Abrini was the third figure, the man in the

:07:58. > :07:59.hat in the airport enquiries, which would link the attacks closely. We

:08:00. > :08:01.wait for that. Labour is keeping up the pressure

:08:02. > :08:04.on David Cameron after he revealed he has profited from his father's

:08:05. > :08:06.offshore investment fund. The Prime Minister and Downing

:08:07. > :08:09.Street have between them issued four statements this week on Mr Cameron's

:08:10. > :08:12.links with his father's firm, Blairmore Holdings, before

:08:13. > :08:13.he finally clarified last night that he'd

:08:14. > :08:17.held shares until 2010. Labour is now demanding to know

:08:18. > :08:20.whether the Prime Minister has benefited from other offshore

:08:21. > :08:34.investments. David Cameron has admitted it has

:08:35. > :08:38.been a difficult few days. He said he has nothing to hide but he is

:08:39. > :08:43.facing accusations of hypocrisy and questions over why it took him so

:08:44. > :08:50.long to admit he had shares in his late father's offshore fund. There

:08:51. > :08:54.is a matter of trust. You need to trust your Prime Minister and the

:08:55. > :08:56.fact that he could not answer a straightforward question

:08:57. > :09:02.straightaway has undermined trust in him. He has big questions to answer.

:09:03. > :09:06.It seems this information had to be dragged out of him over the past few

:09:07. > :09:09.days. What he said a few days ago appeared to suggest there was no

:09:10. > :09:16.benefit he had ever derived from offshore funds like this. At first,

:09:17. > :09:19.Downing Street was reluctant to say anything about the details in the

:09:20. > :09:24.Panama Papers of the offshore fund run by the Prime Minister's father.

:09:25. > :09:29.On Monday they said it was a private matter but on Tuesday he said this.

:09:30. > :09:34.I have no shares, no offshore trust, no funds, nothing like that, so that

:09:35. > :09:39.is a clear description. On Wednesday, a further statement,

:09:40. > :09:44.saying there are no offshore funds or trusts which the Prime Minister,

:09:45. > :09:47.Mr Cameron, or his wife or children will benefit from in future. And

:09:48. > :09:54.then last night he admitted he had owned the shares. We had a joint

:09:55. > :09:58.account and owned 5000 units in Blairmore investment trust which we

:09:59. > :10:06.sold in January 2010, worth something like ?30,000. The offshore

:10:07. > :10:11.fund, Blairmore Holdings, was founded in Panama by David Cameron's

:10:12. > :10:15.late father, Ian. The Prime Minister has said it was not set up to avoid

:10:16. > :10:19.paying tax in the UK, and that when he sold his shares, he paid all the

:10:20. > :10:23.tax that was due. His admission he had shares in the business as seized

:10:24. > :10:27.the headlines, but there is no suggestion he has done anything

:10:28. > :10:32.illegal, and Tory MPs have defended his handling of around. It is a

:10:33. > :10:36.natural human instinct, when the media are piling in on your father's

:10:37. > :10:41.reputation and record, and he is dead and cannot defend himself, when

:10:42. > :10:46.he knew he had paid all of the tax he had to pay, it is natural to

:10:47. > :10:51.feel, I want to protect my father and my family. David Cameron did not

:10:52. > :10:55.declare the shares in the registers member of interest, which lists

:10:56. > :11:00.outside financial affairs. The rules did not require him to do so. David

:11:01. > :11:04.Cameron has said he will publish his tax returns soon, to be clear and

:11:05. > :11:09.open about his financial affairs, which will put pressure on other

:11:10. > :11:13.senior ministers to do so as well. For Number Ten, this row has

:11:14. > :11:16.provided an unwelcome reminder of the Prime Minister's wealthy and

:11:17. > :11:19.privileged background and a distraction from their bigger

:11:20. > :11:24.political battles. David Cameron will hope he has done enough to end

:11:25. > :11:27.the focus on his personal finances, but he remains under pressure to do

:11:28. > :11:29.more to insure the wealthy pay their fair share of tax.

:11:30. > :11:32.Pope Francis has called for the Catholic Church to recognise

:11:33. > :11:36.He says bishops and priests should be free to interpret doctrine

:11:37. > :11:38.in ways that suit their own cultures in their own countries,

:11:39. > :11:41.particularly in relation to marriage and divorce.

:11:42. > :11:44.Let's speak to Caroline Wyatt who's in Rome.

:11:45. > :11:53.Caroline, how significant a shift is this?

:11:54. > :12:01.Well, it is less of a change than reform- minded Catholics wanted, but

:12:02. > :12:05.it sends a clear signal from the top of the Vatican that Pope Francis

:12:06. > :12:08.once the direction of travel for his priests and for his 1 billion

:12:09. > :12:14.Catholics around the world to be one of mercy and compassion. So he has

:12:15. > :12:19.not changed the kind of ideals that the Catholic church wants to uphold

:12:20. > :12:22.for family life but he is asking priests to interpret those with more

:12:23. > :12:25.understanding for human frailty, when people fail to uphold them.

:12:26. > :12:27.The Catholic Church has often closed its door

:12:28. > :12:29.on those living less than perfect lives.

:12:30. > :12:31.Today in France, Pope Francis sought open it a little,

:12:32. > :12:39.on how the Vatican should treat the modern family.

:12:40. > :12:42.At a press conference here this week, two of the Pope's leading

:12:43. > :12:46.cardinals revealed the contents of this keenly awaited document.

:12:47. > :12:48.It came after much debate and some very

:12:49. > :12:54.In the Pope's document on the family,

:12:55. > :12:56.the biggest change is the idea of greater

:12:57. > :12:58.devolution, with Pope Francis suggesting priests seek solutions

:12:59. > :13:02.that are best suited to their own culture.

:13:03. > :13:04.He also wants more openness and a greater understanding of what

:13:05. > :13:08.the Church terms irregular situations, such as divorce and

:13:09. > :13:13.But there is no change to the Church's doctrine, nor its

:13:14. > :13:18.views on homosexuality or ban on contraception.

:13:19. > :13:21.So does this mean that those who are divorced and

:13:22. > :13:25.civilly remarried will now be welcomed back to take communion?

:13:26. > :13:28.Those who want to be included in the life

:13:29. > :13:31.of the Church, the life of faith in the Church, they are welcome.

:13:32. > :13:40.let the doors of the Church be open, do not close them.

:13:41. > :13:43.And he says the same to everybody who is in a difficult

:13:44. > :13:50.This document, over 250 pages long, is one of the most

:13:51. > :13:55.significant to emerge from the Vatican in many years.

:13:56. > :13:58.Entitled On Love and the Family, is written in

:13:59. > :14:02.the distinctive voice of Pope Francis and will set the course of

:14:03. > :14:04.the way the Catholic Church deals with family

:14:05. > :14:14.We first spoke to this couple and their children in 2014.

:14:15. > :14:16.They had high hopes this Pope would change

:14:17. > :14:18.the Church's teaching, but no longer.

:14:19. > :14:33.In the end, though, this popular Pope has shown

:14:34. > :14:39.There is no radical reform here, as some had hoped, more a

:14:40. > :14:42.gentle signal that all families, however

:14:43. > :14:43.fractured, are welcome in

:14:44. > :14:47.his Church, and that the doors are now open.

:16:17. > :16:21.I will be, if I will have money or a job, if I will be able to start

:16:22. > :16:29.settling down for myself. I am 20 and it is time you move out from

:16:30. > :16:36.your parents' codes. Use not all -- he is not alone. 53% do not go to

:16:37. > :16:42.university and 30% follow a vocational route, less than other

:16:43. > :16:46.countries, and last year only 6% of 16-19 -year-olds stickup an

:16:47. > :16:52.apprenticeship. These teenagers started technical learning before

:16:53. > :16:58.their GCSEs. It has challenged ideas about the additional route. Kids who

:16:59. > :17:07.may be wrong not good enough to go to university took an

:17:08. > :17:11.apprenticeship, but it is about learning in a different way. I feel

:17:12. > :17:16.I have lots of opportunities to do different things that I have never

:17:17. > :17:20.had the opportunity to do before so I can do the mini factory here

:17:21. > :17:24.whereas I have never done any technology in my old school.

:17:25. > :17:29.Learning technical skills will make a real difference to their chances

:17:30. > :17:32.of getting a well-paid job at that matters for all of us as well

:17:33. > :17:37.because employers are worried that the UK is not as good at this as

:17:38. > :17:42.other countries and that puts our economy at a disadvantage. Here

:17:43. > :17:48.there might get mentoring from employers. Because of that,

:17:53. > :18:01.through the system. Some of the kids go under the radar. Where do they

:18:02. > :18:05.go? There is a gap. The parents will be really worried. It can feel like

:18:06. > :18:11.a jungle to young people. There's games company boss hires graduates

:18:12. > :18:15.and backs the call for early technical education for more kids.

:18:16. > :18:19.They are much more excited and enthuse about the work where are

:18:25. > :18:28.More money is getting into apprenticeships in England and more

:18:29. > :18:34.money in Scotland. This report makes clear there is a long way to go.

:18:35. > :18:36.Detectives have found the remains of the missing police officer

:18:37. > :18:39.Gordon Semple at a flat in south London, and have arrested a

:18:44. > :18:45.Police were called to the address in Southwark yesterday

:18:46. > :18:52.Our correspondent Tom Symonds has more.

:18:53. > :18:53.Gordon Semple was a dedicated beat bobby.

:18:54. > :18:56.His family and colleagues are devastated.

:18:57. > :18:59.He had been missing for a week when police arrived in large numbers

:19:00. > :19:03.at a flat on the Peabody Estate in Southwark yesterday lunchtime.

:19:04. > :19:06.They had been called by this man, who had knocked on the door

:19:07. > :19:09.of the flat and complained to the occupant about a strong smell.

:19:10. > :19:15.He said I know that, I am cooking for my mate.

:19:16. > :19:19.I said, OK, the police are on their way anyway.

:19:20. > :19:24.Police cordoned off the entire estate.

:19:25. > :19:27.Searches and interviews are under way but they say they have

:19:28. > :19:32.found human remains, suspected to be those of Gordon Semple.

:19:33. > :19:35.Last Friday he had been to a lunchtime meeting at this hotel

:19:36. > :19:40.at the Shard skyscraper near London Bridge.

:19:41. > :19:43.The Shard is about half a mile that way but by 2:30pm Gordon Semple

:19:55. > :20:07.It is a crucial sighting because he appears to be

:20:08. > :20:09.heading towards the estate, which is just yards away.

:20:10. > :20:12.The investigation is likely to focus on what he was doing that day.

:20:13. > :20:16.Was there a connection between his death and his private life?

:20:17. > :20:18.Gordon Semple's partner Gary and other members of his family said

:20:19. > :20:21.today the week of his disappearance had been dreadful,

:20:22. > :20:24.and these were the words of a senior police officer.

:20:25. > :20:27.This is a very sad day for Gordon's colleagues.

:20:28. > :20:30.There are many officers who have served with Gordon in London

:20:31. > :20:35.during his 30 year career who will acutely feel his loss.

:21:11. > :21:13.could be up and running again by August.

:21:14. > :21:15.The mills, which process the metal, were closed by Tata Steel,

:21:16. > :21:17.but today Liberty House, the firm which has expressed

:21:18. > :21:19.an interest in buying the Port Talbot steelworks,

:21:20. > :21:26.The fairy tale is coming closer for Leicester City.

:21:27. > :21:29.If they win again this weekend and other results go

:21:30. > :21:32.in their favour, they could be just one more victory away from winning

:21:33. > :21:35.the Premier League title for the first time.

:21:36. > :21:38.If they lift the trophy it will be ranked as one of the greatest ever

:21:39. > :21:43.Andy Swiss is in Leicester for us this evening.

:21:44. > :21:45.Andy , I don't want to jinx it but it's still looking

:21:46. > :21:55.Yes. If you had come here 12 months ago and told Leicester fans they

:21:56. > :21:59.would win the Premier League they would probably have laughed and yet

:22:00. > :22:02.a win over Sunderland could take them within touching distance of a

:22:03. > :22:07.quite extraordinary feat. A year ago they were

:22:08. > :22:09.staring at relegation. Not much joy for those Leicester

:22:10. > :22:12.fans on their travels this season. Now they are on the brink

:22:13. > :22:14.of a footballing fairy tale. Leicester's story is as unlikely

:22:15. > :22:18.as it is unforgettable. This last weekend put them

:22:19. > :22:20.seven points clear. Even for the manager it is hard

:22:21. > :22:25.not to be. That is normal.

:22:26. > :22:26.Me too. I am very curious.

:22:27. > :22:30.But we have to wait. We have to wait and play

:22:31. > :22:32.match by match. Also it is important

:22:33. > :22:35.to maintain the right way Keeping feet grounded has rarely

:22:36. > :22:41.been a problem here. Leicester have never won the league,

:22:42. > :22:49.despite this man's best efforts. Gary Lineker used to help his

:22:50. > :22:52.parents on their stall at Leicester market, but he told me his home

:22:53. > :22:55.club's journey is unprecedented. It is like watching a movie

:22:56. > :22:58.that is perhaps a little bit over the top, a bit

:22:59. > :23:00.ridiculous, a bit far-fetched. But the impossible dream

:23:01. > :23:04.is getting very close. Seven points with six games to go

:23:05. > :23:08.is certainly the most spectacular Indeed this might be the biggest

:23:09. > :23:15.sporting shock of all time. Remember Goran Ivanisevic

:23:16. > :23:17.winning Wimbledon? The unheralded golfer Ben Curtis won

:23:18. > :23:25.the Open as a 300-1 outsider but at the start of the season

:23:26. > :23:28.Leicester's odds of winning That is the same odds as the Loch

:23:29. > :23:37.Ness Monster being found. Should Leicester do it,

:23:38. > :23:38.armchair supporters I foolishly tweeted in December that

:23:39. > :23:46.I would present the opening Match Knowing obviously at that point

:23:47. > :23:52.categorically that there was no chance Leicester were going to go

:23:53. > :24:00.on to win the title. But I hope it is a problem I have,

:24:01. > :24:04.even if I would have to apologise. Leicester fans will not mind that

:24:05. > :24:19.if their remarkable story has Tottenham and Arsenal fans will

:24:20. > :24:24.still have hopes but if they blues and Leicester win they will be ten

:24:25. > :24:28.points clear and will be very hard to see stopping them. That is for

:24:29. > :24:44.sure. It is a mixed bag, typical of April,

:24:45. > :24:50.lots of showers around. It is a little cloudy but dry. Very pretty

:24:51. > :24:57.scenes. In the east we see the best of the sunshine. Beautiful skyline.

:24:58. > :25:02.I love this because of the tulips. It has not been plain sailing for

:25:03. > :25:06.everyone. Further west that has been raining and the rain is crossing

:25:07. > :25:11.into the mainland stall all of us will have some rain tonight or

:25:12. > :25:16.tomorrow morning. Behind this band of rain is called air so we could

:25:17. > :25:24.have snow for the Highlands and Grampians. Eyes is a risk to unite

:25:25. > :25:30.particularly in Northern Ireland and possibly elsewhere under clear skies

:25:31. > :25:36.-- ice. We could see wintry showers across the Brecon Beacons and Wales.

:25:37. > :25:40.There will be drier weather. There's rain taking time to clear away

:25:41. > :25:45.tomorrow morning in the east. It should be drier across Northern

:25:46. > :25:49.Ireland. For the north-east of Scotland the rain lingers. Not just

:25:50. > :25:59.for much of tomorrow but potentially for much of Sunday as well on and

:26:00. > :26:03.off. I would not be surprised if we have a shower at Aintree. We are

:26:04. > :26:09.talking about wintry weather. When is our light. The sun is getting

:26:10. > :26:13.stronger. Sunday looks better for getting out and about. Still the

:26:14. > :26:18.rain in the north and east and windy weather in the south-west with rain,

:26:19. > :26:22.combined high tides, not particularly pleasant, but for the

:26:23. > :26:27.bulk of the country it looks drier on the whole. A mixed bag.

:26:28. > :26:35.The mother of 20-month-old Ayeeshia Smith is convicted

:26:36. > :26:37.of her murder just months after taking her home

:26:38. > :26:46.There are reports a key suspect in the Paris terror attacks and

:26:47. > :26:49.possibly the attacks in Brussels has been arrested.
