In all were packed into what the BBC understands to be this inflatable

boat. -- 20 people. They were rescued in the English channel in

the early hours of Sunday morning. The alarm was raised after somebody

on-board phoned relatives in Calais. The search and rescue helicopter and

lifeboats were dispatched. One of them from here at the station at

nearby Dungeness. Trevor Bunny was working Saturday night when the call

came in. We did not get close enough to see people. But we could see it

was a small vessel with lots of people on board. He said the

conditions at sea were rough to moderate and the inflatable boat was

taking on water. -- Trevor Bunney. They were reasonably calm. They had

been on the sea for a while. They were a bit dishevelled. Suffering

from cold, as well. One woman seemed to have hypothermia? Yes. Two

British men have been charged with immigration offences. Yesterday,

border force officials recovered another boat. Investigations are

ongoing as to whether it is linked. There are now concerned there could

be a wider problem. We mustn't be complacent. We are already hearing

from the government and various Conservative MPs that this is the

safest board in Europe. I would like to hear it is the most secure in

Europe. The English channel is one of the busiest shipping lanes in the

world. -- safest border. There are concerns from some that if this

becomes an issue that more resources will need to be directed towards the

UK coastline. Catriona Renton BBC News.

Our correspondent is outside Maidstone Crown Court. What

happened? The two men have been charged with

conspiring. It lasted for only around five minutes. The men have

been remanded in custody until next month. As regards the 18 Albanians,

they are still being questioned by immigration officers in Dover. Among

them, two children, and also a woman. This has raised the debate

again about just how secure our borders are. The immigration

services union said it believed whole stretches of the coastline

were effectively unpoliced. So we have no idea how many migrants are

getting in undetected. The government on the other hand says

over the past six years it has invested a huge amount of money

protecting our borders and from tomorrow there will be new stop and

search powers for the border force. Banks very much. -- thank you very

much. David Cameron and Sadiq Khan,

the Labour Mayor of London, have set aside party rivalries

to make a joint appeal for people Meanwhile the Northern Ireland

Secretary and Leave campaigner Theresa Villiers urged people

to listen to the facts and not the forecasts, as our Political

Correspondent Ben Wright reports. From political foes to campaign

comrades, just four weeks ago, David Cameron was warning

about the risk Sadiq Khan would pose to London at the end

of a bitter mayoral contest. But today, the Conservative Prime

Minister shared a stage He's the son of a bus driver,

I'm the son of a stockbroker. The Remain campaign launched what it

called a guarantee card listing what they say voters will get

if the UK stays in the EU, including access to the single

market and a guarantee At this morning's launch

at a London University, Get involved, get

registered, have your say. And make sure you make a decision

that will affect your future This EU referendum is

bridging political differences. David Cameron's own party

remains very divided. This is a symbol of how much

the referendum is shaping politics In a cafe around the corner, young

voters, grappling with the choice. And a lot of my flatmates

and friends are thinking in. We are the generation that

will really impact the future. And I think it's very important

that they are given the full story as to what happens,

whether we stay of Campaigning in Cumbria,

Vote Leave dismissed their opponents' pledge card,

saying what continued EU membership really guaranteed was more money

sent from Britain to Brussels, It's only going to get worse,

because we will see more economic That means more young people seeking

work here because the EU is failing With the Government warning of dire

economic consequences if the UK leaves the EU,

Leave painted a sunnier Last week we had the best ever

job figures announced. What matters are trade,

economic cooperation and With less than four weeks ago,

it feels like the final stretch of this referendum campaign

is now approaching. The core messages are being boiled

down and repeated to Iraqi government forces say

they have begun their operation to reclaim Fallujah from so-called

Islamic state - amid fears that the 50,000 civilians trapped

inside the city may be used Our correspondent Jim Muir has sent

this report from Baghdad. This latest phase in the offensive

got underway at dawn, exactly a week after the whole

campaign to oust so-called Islamic The renewed assault was proceded

by heavy artillery bombardments Jets from the American led coalition

and the Iraqi Air Force also carried out air strikes in support

of the advancing ground forces. So far the latest phase of attack

still seems to be pressing in around Fallujah, not penetrating yet

into the actual centre As the battle moves closer

to Fallujah itself, there is huge concern

for the civilians trapped there. The best guess is

around 50,000 of them. They have already been through nine

months of siege, a very tight blockade, so they have been

drinking filthy water and have had very little by way

of food and medicine coming in. Hundreds of families have managed

to escape to safety. They are being taken to camps

to the south and west of Fallujah where at least they will

find shelter and food. TRANSLATION: Thank God we were able

to get away from TRANSLATION: Thank God

we were able to get away They left us starved

and left us thirsty. They took away our men

and told us to go home, saying they will return,

but they did not send The capital, Baghdad,

was hit by three big explosions. Two of them carried out

by suicide bombers. It seemed to be an attempt

by IS to strike behind its enemies' lines, to distract security forces

from the battle for Fallujah. Militia commanders in the field

who are taking part in the attacks wants the city itself tightly

surrounded, and there could be a pause before the final assault

to allow as many civilians But IS is reported to be stopping

them from fleeing, accused The Duke of Edinburgh is to miss

an event marking the centenary of the Battle of Jutland

on medical advice. A statement from Buckingham Palace

said Prince Philip had "reluctantly decided" not to go to Orkney

tomorrow - to attend commemorations for the biggest naval engagement

of the First World War. The Prince hasn't been to hospital

and he's expected to resume Republican Senators in the US have

tabled a bill to send fighters from so-called Islamic State

to Guantanamo Bay. It is the latest attempt to stop

President Obama fulfilling a campaign pledge he made,

more than eight years ago, Our North America Correspondent

Aleem Maqbool reports For years, President Obama said

he would close this place, but not only is the sprawling

complex of Guantanamo Bay's prison still open, there are now

suggestions it should be used It is extremely dark

in here because we are looking at the prisoners

through one-way glass. It is far emptier than even a year

ago when we were last here. Many have been released

in recent months. Those left behind have been

here so long they are used They have devised ways of getting

exercise through pacing around We saw some interacting

with the guards. The president wanted to either

release these men or move them to the mainland, but at the moment,

Guantanamo remains a huge operation. Under appropriate security

conditions in the United States, these detainees pose no more threat

than they do here. Even the name Guantanamo conjures up

images of orange jumpsuits. It's synonymous with issues around

torture and force-feeding, and what the White House says

is that while it's still standing, it remains a powerful recruiting

tool for militant groups The answer is continued political

opposition back in Washington. Guantanamo Bay needs to be kept open

not only to detain these unlawful We will, tomorrow, a week from now,

a month from now, pull terrorists The right place to take them

is not a federal prison Among some Republicans,

this idea of adding to the numbers Whether that happens

could now be a decision left Every year, nearly a quarter

of a million of us serve on a jury. For the vast majority,

there are no lasting effects - but research suggests

that the increasing use of photographic and video material

in courtroom evidence is leaving Jon Kay has been hearing from one

woman about her experience. I don't think I'll ever

be the same again. It's five years since Jess did jury

service for a murder trial with some She told me she still has

flashbacks and nightmares. I would replay all of

the pictures that we'd seen, I just thought about the victim

all the time and was completely paranoid,

would check my doors, my windows. I was shocked that I

was so affected by it. Jess felt she couldn't seek help

because jurors are repeatedly warned by judges not

to discuss details of trials. It's impossible to know how many

people feel the same while doing jury service but experts say it's

a growing issue. In a digital age, juries often

have a huge amount of photographic and video evidence to consider

in their bundles and files. The service that runs courtrooms

in England and Wales says if somebody is struggling,

they should talk to a member Professor Knight's testimony has

been the most graphic and therefore Chilling evidence in the trial

of Rose West two decades ago Since then, juries have been shown

a video explaining how courts work and there are Samaritans leaflets

in jury rooms. But one academic who's spoken

to hundreds of people about their experiences says more

help should be offered. If it's a civic duty that the state

expects of people, then the very least the state can do is,

if people become traumatised and distressed, some provision

should be made for them. In Scotland, jurors can get

counselling at this specialist trauma centre where cases involving

child victims tend to cause In a rare interview,

one English judge says courts should always monitor the effect

evidence is having. There are still times when evidence

is given in court where I have a sharp intake of breath

or see a photograph which I really I guess to be able to talk

to someone would have The Courts Tribunals service says

it will look at the help given to jurors like Jess and consider

whether things can be improved. England captain Alastair Cook has

become the youngest cricketer to make 10 thousand Test runs

in his career. He scored 47 in his side's second

innings as they beat Sri Lanka Our cricket correspondent

Jonathan Agnew is there for us. England cruised to a straightforward

victory by nine wickets, which means they win 2-0 with one still to play.

Most notably, we have seen Alastair Cook become the first English man

and the youngest batsman ever to score 10,000 test runs. Not the most

elegant of players, maybe, but certainly one of the most

consistent. In the age of the fast and the immediate, Alastair Cook is

the finest of throwbacks. With more test runs than any other Englishmen,

now more than 10,000 of them. It was a great moment for me. It is

something that has certainly driven me personally. You do have the

little things personally that dry you. To score 10,000 runs was a goal

that I wanted to achieve. The statistics do not lie. It is a

phenomenal achievement by a thin and cricketer who will always go down as

one of England's greats. Cook has never fully outgrown his youthful

looks, but he has developed a reputation as a fierce competitor.

Last year, not dipped -- not only did he break the runs record

Faringdon, he... I am proud to have played in the same team as him, and

I hope that in 20 years I can sit there with a glass of red and tell

my kids that I played with Alastair Cook. Genius is said to be 1%

inspiration, 99% perspiration, but Cock is notorious for not sweating.

He just keeps batting, rarely worried, readily hurried, but with

great effect. -- Cook. Finally - as part of our series

talking to people about the factors that will affect how they vote

in next month's EU referendum, tonight it's the turn of

Rosie O'Reilly from County Fermanagh I am from county Fermanagh. I intend

to vote to stay in the EU. This is the most westerly village in the

United Kingdom, and it it is right on the border with Donegal in the

Republic of Ireland. You can see behind me, three quarters of the

bridge to my left is Donnie Galle, and the quarter here is County

Fermanagh. -- Donegal. This place was established in 1857. Tourism

would be the biggest factor in the referendum. That is what keeps me in

a job. This is the piece coming out of the painting shop, and this is it

after it has received its final fire. There are no borders any more

and people can travel freely. If you were to reintroduce border control,

it would have a huge knock-on effect on our two arisen. -- on our

tourism. My children don't even know what the border is, other than what

we tell them off what they read about, and I think that is the way

it should be. There shouldn't be controls anywhere. I travel

across-the-board may be ten times a day for different reasons, but we

don't really think of it as a boarder. It's just all... Can I get

a pound of Philip stake, please? I think we should stay with what we

know rather than leave and not know what is coming after it.
