Tonight at Six, British law and British courts | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Theresa May's promise for life after Brexit. | :00:07. | :00:13. | |
Under new proposals the European Court of Justice | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
will not have a direct say over our affairs. | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
When we leave the European Union we will be leaving the jurisdiction of | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
But what happens if there's a dispute with the EU after Brexit? | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
Cleared of manslaughter, the cyclist who knocked down | :00:29. | :00:35. | |
a mother of two who died of her injuries. | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
They'd lost a mother, Harry and William speak | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
It will either make or break you and I wouldn't let it break me | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
and I wanted it to make me, and I wanted her to be proud. | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
And Rooney retires - Wayne calls time on his | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
international career with England after 14 years. | :00:58. | :01:01. | |

They lead Hoffenheim 2-1 ahead of tonight's | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. | :01:09. | :01:33. | |
In the latest of its proposals for life after Brexit the government | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
has published its plans on how it wants to end the legal authority | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
of the European Court of Justice in UK affairs. | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
At the moment the Court can influence everything from workers' | :01:44. | :01:45. | |
But Theresa May says it will no longer have what she calls a direct | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
But, in what critics see as a climbdown, | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
the new plan appears to allow the European Court to have some | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
role in future disputes between the EU and Britain. | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
Here's our political correspondent Ben Wright. | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
It is about bringing power back to Britain. | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
We will take back control of our laws and bring | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
an end to the jurisdiction of the European Court | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
And for many Leave campaigners that is what Brexit was all about. | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
Take back democracy, take back control for our country. | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
As it reveals its ideas for how disputes between the EU and the UK | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
might be hammered out in the future, the Prime Minister | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
denied the government was ditching its big red line. | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
We are very clear we will not have the jurisdiction | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
We will put in place arrangements to ensure that businesses | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
have the confidence of knowing they can continue to trade | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
So what is the European Court of Justice and why does it matter? | :02:47. | :02:54. | |
It is because this Luxembourg court is the EU's ultimate legal | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
authority, refereeing disputes between EU institutions | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
Its judgments have shaped everything from our food | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
For many people it has become a totemic representation of our lack | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
of control of our own laws because basically ministers can find | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
themselves being forced to change UK law because the ECJ says | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
what we are trying to do here, rules that Parliament has passed, | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
are incompatible with European law and we have to change things. | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
But going forward we will have some sort of relationship with the EU | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
and and that means we will not be able to divorce ourselves from | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
And that is the dilemma for the government. | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
So what does today's paper tell us about its aims? | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
Ministers today accepted they would have to keep half | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
an eye on rulings by EU judges after Brexit. | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
New arbitration bodies will have to be created to ensure the EU | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
and the UK are playing by the same rules when a trade deal is done. | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
Although the ECJ would not have direct jurisdiction over the UK, | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
its judges may have a role interpreting EU law. | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
And opposition parties here see the government's position shifting. | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
The government is clearly backtracking on its earlier red | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
lines and saying there has to be some form of dispute resolution | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
and some form of judicial process and that obviously is the case | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
and we have indeed said that all along. | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
What the Prime Minister is now recognising is there will be a role | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
for the European Court, whether it is in relation | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
to the withdrawal agreement, the transition period, | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
or even post Brexit in terms of the ECJ law, European court law, | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
that we have incorporated into UK law. | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
And the SNP urged the government to rub out its red line | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
It is revealing too that most pro-Brexit Tory MPs seem pretty | :04:43. | :04:49. | |
comfortable with the direction the government is going on this. | :04:50. | :05:00. | |
And it is the fact once Britain leaves the European Union, | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
judgments about the European Court of Justice will no longer be | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
One of the big questions for negotiations is the extent | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
Britain chooses to follow EU law and judgments in return | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
for close cooperation on trade, security and more. | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
The chief negotiators from Britain and the EU will resume the talks | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
in Brussels next week and there have already been disagreements | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
between the two sides on the role the ECJ should have in the future. | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
Today's paper from the UK may smooth things over a bit. | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
It shows they are accepting there are painful trade-offs to be | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
made and the fact they are now saying that they will not | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
accept the direct effects of the European Court of Justice, | :05:38. | :05:39. | |
they will just accept it indirectly affecting the UK post Brexit, | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
is quite constructive from an EU point of view. | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Centuries of law is piled high in Westminster and restoring | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
Parliament's sovereignty is fundamental to Brexit, | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
but the UK is not about to leap into legal isolation and EU law, | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
as shaped by the ECJ, will still be relevant | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
Clive Coleman is here. Is this the end of the influence of the ECJ? The | :06:01. | :06:23. | |
court judgment will no longer be binding on our courts, and in that | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
sense it will be gone, however the government's paper centres around | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
the trade and that will involve a lot of EU law and if you want to | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
sell cars into Germany, it will involve those standards and its | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
influence will remain. How does this affect people like you and me? The | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
ECJ has developed law across many areas like disability rights, | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
consumers' writes and workers' writes. For example, over time is | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
calculated as part of holiday pay. If there is another ruling extending | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
those rights, we will not get the benefits of that. Also, for example, | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
zero rate VAT on female sanitary products. What about trading? That | :07:11. | :07:18. | |
is when it becomes more complicated and the government is throwing at | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
the series of different options. This is resolving disputes, a joint | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
committee, a panel of arbitration. If there is a dispute, there could | :07:29. | :07:36. | |
be for the ECJ, for it says to have a post Brexit reference, and that | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
could resolve the dispute. Thank you very much. Adam Fleming is at the | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
European Court of Justice in Luxembourg. We know what Britain was | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
out of all of this, but let's not forget this is a negotiation. Yes, | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
and we can split this into the short-term, medium term and long | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
term. In the short term the first test will come next week when David | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
Davies and his opposite number, Michel Barnier, will sit down for a | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
further round of talks. At the top of the agenda are the rights of EU | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
citizens living in the UK after Brexit, which Europe wants to be | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
guaranteed by the ECJ. In the medium-term Michel Barnier has | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
proposed the issues that come out of the Brexit agreement could be sold | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
by a joint committee of officials from each side and if they cannot | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
reach agreement, that would go to the ECJ for the final say. You can | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
imagine the UK signing up to the first part of that, but not the | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
second. As for the long term, the final, permanent deal between the EU | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
and the UK, that is an issue for phase two of the talks which will | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
not start until the end of this year at the very earliest. A long way to | :08:55. | :08:56. | |
go. Adam, thank you very much. The Home Office has apologised | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
after around a hundred letters were wrongly sent to EU nationals | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
warning them they face detention The error emerged after a Finnish | :09:03. | :09:04. | |
academic tweeted about correspondence she received | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
from the department. Eva Johanna Holmberg, | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
who is married to a Briton, A cyclist who knocked down a mother | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
of two who later died of her injuries has been | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
cleared of manslaughter. Charlie Alliston was, however, | :09:21. | :09:22. | |
found guilty of the charge of causing bodily harm by wanton | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
and furious driving. Kim Briggs suffered catastrophic | :09:26. | :09:27. | |
head injuries and died a week later. Alliston was riding a bike | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
without front brakes, designed for the cycling track | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
and not the high street. It was a split second encounter with | :09:35. | :09:49. | |
a bike that ended Kim Briggs' life. She was crossing a busy London | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
street in her lunch break when she was hit. Charlie Alston in the | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
middle was the cyclist, eating at the time and a former courier who | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
said he tried to swerve. But the bike he was riding should never have | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
been on the road, it was designed for the velodrome without gears and | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
with no front brake. Alliston claimed he did not know he needed | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
one to ride on the road and said he still would not have been able to | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
stop in time. Outside the court Kim Brix' family welcome to the verdict. | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
I would like to ask you to remember came not through the lens of this | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
trial, but for being the beautiful, fun loving women who adored her | :10:30. | :10:37. | |
children and who lived her life to the full and by the mantra make | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
every day count. Charlie Alistair was doing about 80 miles an hour as | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
he approached this junction. The lights are green. He said he saw Kim | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
Brix stepping out into the road just beyond the crossing looking at her | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
phone. He called out and slowed down to less than 40 miles an hour, | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
called again and swerved to avoid her. He told the court she stepped | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
back into his path. On the evening of the crash Charlie Alston wrote | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
online, yes, it is her fault, but no, she did not | :11:13. | :11:30. | |
deserve it. Hopefully it is a lesson load on her | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
behalf. He later deleted those words and other comments and told the | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
court it was stupid and not thought through. This has been a complex | :11:37. | :11:38. | |
case with difficult questions about safety and responsibility and how | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
cyclists and pedestrians shared the road. Kim Brix' family now wants | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
tougher as cycling laws. The judge remarked Charlie Alston has shown no | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
remorse. He will be sentenced next month and has been warned to expect | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
Prince William has been describing how he didn't want the death | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
of his mother to "break him" for fear of damaging her legacy. | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
He and Prince Harry have been speaking for a BBC | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
documentary marking 20 years since Diana, Princess | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
Our royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell reports. | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
It does contain some flash photography. | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
20 years ago they were children, doing their best to cope | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
with their own grief amid the close attention of a grieving nation. | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
It had been their father who had had to break the news | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
to William and Harry that their mother was dead. | :12:15. | :12:16. | |
They had been at Balmoral and in the documentary they say how | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
relieved they were that the Queen had kept them there for a few days. | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
They were grateful too to their father. | :12:24. | :12:24. | |
But the solitude of Balmoral had given way | :12:25. | :12:36. | |
They had come out to meet people outside Kensington palace. | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
And it is clear that they found the whole experience bewildering. | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
I couldn't understand then, says William, why people | :12:44. | :12:45. | |
were so upset over someone they didn't know. | :12:46. | :12:47. | |
The public grieving reached its height on the day | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
And they start walking down the road... | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
William and Harry were determined not to show their emotions. | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
The decision for them to walk behind their mother's | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
often was a collective, family decision, says William. | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
More than anything else they wanted to honour their mother's memory. | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
When you have something so traumatic as the death | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
of your mother when you are 15, as very sadly many people have | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
experienced, and no one wants to experience, | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
You know, it will either make or break you. | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
I wanted her to be proud of the person I would become. | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
I didn't want her worried or her legacy to be that you know, | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
William and or Harry were completely and utterly devastated by it. | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
And that all the hard work and all the love and all the energy | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
that she put into us when we were younger | :13:44. | :13:45. | |
In the years since Diana's death her sons have taken | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
up many of the causes that she championed. | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
The pain may have softened, but in Harry's case there | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
is still anger towards the French photographers who pursued | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
Diana's speeding car into the Alma tunnel in Paris. | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
I think one of the hardest things to come to terms with is the fact | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
that the people that chased her through, into the tunnel, | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
were the same people that were taking photographs | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
of her while she was still dying on the back seat of the car. | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
And those people that caused the accident, instead of helping, | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
were taking photographs of her dying on the back seat. | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
And then those photographs made their way back to news | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
20 years have passed, there is a generation now with no | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
But for many it remains a week in Britain's recent | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
history which retains its emotional resonance. | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
And you can see that documentary "Diana: 7 days", | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
President Donald Trump has launched a ferocious attack on the media, | :14:51. | :14:58. | |
calling journalists "dishonest" and "sick" people. | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
Speaking at a rally of supporters in Phoenix, Arizona, Mr Trump said | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
the media had failed to report accurately his comments | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
about the violent behaviour of far right nationalists | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
It is how he won the presidency, railing against elites in | :15:11. | :15:35. | |
government, on Wall Street and in the media. But the campaign ended | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
nine months ago. Not that you would know it. The red lights, they are | :15:40. | :15:47. | |
turning them off fast. For half an hour in Phoenix, the President | :15:48. | :15:49. | |
lambasted the news media. He was animated, even angry, as he blamed | :15:50. | :15:56. | |
the intense criticism of his erratic response to white supremacist | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
violence on treacherous reporters. These are really, really dishonest | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
people and they are bad people. I really think they don't like our | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
country. I really believe that. President Trump took his war with | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
the media to a new level tonight, attacking journalists again and | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
again. He clearly regards his best defence from criticism as a full | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
throated attack on the messenger. But the audience were delighted, and | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
they also loved his promise to secure the border with Mexico. The | :16:29. | :16:30. | |
obstructionists Democrats would like as not to do it. Believe me, if we | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
have to close down our government, we are building that wall. Designs | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
for the wall are slowly taking shape. One idea, favoured in the | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
interval by the President, is for it to be covered in solar panels. But | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
it would only stretch for about a quarter of the frontier. The initial | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
outlay would be huge and he would need Congress to approve the | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
spending. It seems like the initial outlay will be quite high? We are | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
using a number, it has gone up, but it is 7.5 billion. That is within | :16:59. | :17:07. | |
their budget. To cover how much of a distance? 7.5 million per mile. Back | :17:08. | :17:16. | |
in the border state of Arizona, the anger is frothing. After the rally, | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
it bubbled over on the streets. Police, using tear gas to disperse a | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
hard-core of protesters. The trouble didn't last long. The controversy | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
surrounding the President, by contrast, goes on and on. | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
Our top story this evening... The Government sets out its plans to | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
leave the European Court of Justice and put British law first when we | :17:43. | :17:44. | |
leave the EU. Birmingham's gang culture - | :17:45. | :17:45. | |
police ban more than a dozen men from the city in a crackdown | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
on guns and violence. Coming up in Sportsday on BBC News, | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
it's the end of an era for England as record goal scorer | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
Wayne Rooney retires from international football, | :17:55. | :17:56. | |
despite being set for a recall. Rooney says it's the | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
right time to bow out. We reported recently that learner | :18:00. | :18:11. | |
drivers are to have lessons Now a road safety charity wants | :18:12. | :18:13. | |
driving on rural roads to be made Figures, calculated per billion | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
miles of each type of road show, that on rural roads, | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
there were 943 deaths in 2015. That's compared to 577 on urban | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
routes, and down to 96 deaths on motorways - | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
that's about a tenth A word of warning, | :18:34. | :18:35. | |
Claire Marshall's report starts with pictures of an accident | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
which you might find upsetting. No-one in the incident, | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
nor the animals, were badly hurt. Watch what can happen | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
on a quiet rural road. Incredibly, the horses and riders | :18:52. | :19:03. | |
have now fully recovered. It wasn't caught on camera, | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
but her last horse was killed. She'd been riding with her son | :19:08. | :19:16. | |
and a friend in a village Despite all wearing high | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
visibility gear, a car slammed The early days were very | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
difficult for everybody. It was a lot of flashbacks, | :19:24. | :19:36. | |
a lot of fear, a lot of grieving. But, also, not knowing | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
if I would ride again. I live in the countryside and I know | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
that the roads get to the busy Now, a charity says all drivers | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
should be made to learn 80% of young driver fatalities | :19:51. | :19:58. | |
occurred on rural roads. That's why Brake's calling | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
for a radical overhaul We took her out with | :20:03. | :20:04. | |
a specialist instructor. What's going to happen if you see | :20:05. | :20:15. | |
a tractor coming towards you? I definitely get mainly nervous that | :20:16. | :20:18. | |
I'm not doing it right, because they all know the roads very | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
well and they shoot round them. Just reassuring me that going slower | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
so you don't crash is a good thing. The Department for Transport says | :20:30. | :20:42. | |
our roads are some of the safest in the world. But farmers feel the | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
driving test does need to be modernised. | :20:48. | :20:48. | |
Agricultural machinery is getting bigger, roads aren't getting any | :20:49. | :20:50. | |
wider and they're not building any more of them. | :20:51. | :20:52. | |
So the issues that we're having every year, you're getting more | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
The message is that for everyone's safety, including passengers, | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
the challenges of rural driving need to be understood. | :21:01. | :21:03. | |

Our less than impressive summer has led to some significant flooding | :21:06. | :21:07. | |
Derry Airport in Northern Ireland was closed today and more than 100 | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
people had to be rescued from their homes after a heavy | :21:13. | :21:15. | |
There's also been flooding in parts of England, | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
The emergency services in Scarborough say they have struggled | :21:19. | :21:31. | |
to cope with the flash floods. Looking at these pictures, it's not | :21:32. | :21:37. | |
hard to see why. This is the town centre, the main street is more of a | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
river. This is still peak holiday season, but for these unlucky | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
campers and a litre at home to dry off is probably now on the cards. In | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
England there have been reports of flooding in Leeds and York. This, | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
the scene in Londonderry. An overnight storm has also caused | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
flooding across Northern Ireland and the North West of Ireland. Several | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
people are reported to have had a lucky escape when a main road | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
collapsed, as did the local bridge, leaving some areas and accessible. | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
Yesterday evening, there were 60 separate reports of flooding in | :22:12. | :22:14. | |
Northern Ireland following heavy rain, with 120 people requiring | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
rescue overnight. According to The Met Office, two thirds of August's | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
total rainfall fell in just a few hours. The rain has now gone, but | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
the clean-up will take time. Sarah Campbell, BBC News. | :22:27. | :22:28. | |
Two rival gangs in Birmingham have been served with the largest ever | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
injunction to stop them mixing with each other and banning them | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
The gangs are thought to be involved in gun and drugs offences. | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
18 men must register their phones and vehicles with police. | :22:39. | :22:40. | |
But critics say it'll simply move problems elsewhere. | :22:41. | :22:42. | |
Early morning and police in Birmingham are getting ready | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
to issue several men with gang injunctions. | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
The judge granted the final order on the 15th of July, I think it was, | :22:51. | :22:53. | |
and we are just on our way to serve that order as we speak. | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
For the next two years, the men won't be able to go | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
to certain parts of the city, they won't be able to meet one | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
another and they won't be allowed to post material online. | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
Well, we are driving in Handsworth, one of the areas where the men | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
And it's in what's called the exclusion zone. | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
That stretches from the centre of the city to its outskirts. | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
Here are the 18 men, 12 of whom are already in prison. | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
They are all suspected of having links with two | :23:26. | :23:27. | |
prominent Birmingham gangs, the Burger Bar Boys | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
Back in 2003, two teenage girls, Letisha Shakespeare | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
and Charlene Ellis, were the innocent victims | :23:37. | :23:38. | |
They were killed by members of the Burger Bar Boys in a revenge | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
My name's PC Evans. We're after Jerome. | :23:44. | :23:50. | |
The injunctions come after a spate of gun and knife | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
It enables police officers to challenge them if they're | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
in particular areas where they're not allowed to be, | :23:59. | :24:00. | |
If they're in company with people they are not allowed to be, | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
it enables them to be challenged and taken back to court. | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
It actually disrupts their lifestyle, and that's the one | :24:09. | :24:10. | |
thing that they don't want to happen. | :24:11. | :24:12. | |
But former gang members have told us injunctions don't work. | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
I think it's very stupid, because if a gang person's | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
from a certain area, you tell him now, you can't go | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
to that area, what's stopping the person who he used to roll with, | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
the friends he used to keep, from going to another area to meet | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
So, in reality, all you're doing is making a problem there, | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
and putting the same person in another area. | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
But there is an argument that at least something is being done | :24:42. | :24:43. | |
I would just say engage a little bit more brain and just think about it. | :24:44. | :24:53. | |
If the injunctions are breached, the men could face time in jail. | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
With very few of these orders issued, it is unclear how | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
England's all-time top goal scorer Wayne Rooney is retiring | :25:03. | :25:11. | |
Rooney appeared 119 times for England, scoring | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
boyhood club Everton - is back to scoring form but he says | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
He will go down as one of England's's greats. Rooney's shot! | :25:25. | :25:40. | |
Fabulous! Today, Wayne Rooney resisted the temptation to prolong | :25:41. | :25:42. | |
an international career that earned him a place in footballing history. | :25:43. | :25:46. | |
In a statement that took the sport by surprise, he said... | :25:47. | :25:58. | |
Already England's's youngest ever player, he was the team's star | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
performer at his first major tournament. Rooney is the big | :26:05. | :26:11. | |
discovery of Euro 2004. In an international career that spanned 14 | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
years and six managers, he became captain and record goal-scorer. This | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
is how much it meant to him. A huge honour to myself and all my family, | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
and my career. Hopefully for the team and myself, a lot more to come. | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
For a player that won everything for Manchester United, injuries and ill | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
discipline ensured that his England career was not without controversy | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
and, at times, the frustration boiled over. Nice to see the home | :26:39. | :26:45. | |
fans booing you! He said one of his few regrets in football was retiring | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
having never been part of a successful England side at a major | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
tournament, but he insists the time has come to put club before country | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
and focus his energies on Edison here at Goodison. -- Everton. A | :26:59. | :27:06. | |
return to form, and a recall beckoned, but the offer was rejected | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
by a player that some believe deserves more credit. It's important | :27:12. | :27:14. | |
to remember that the vast majority of his career, he has only really | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
been the one England world-class player. It is a time when we have | :27:19. | :27:25. | |
struggled, we have had bad sides in the last few competitions and | :27:26. | :27:27. | |
haven't had enough world-class players alongside him. He was the | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
last of England's feted but ultimately unfulfilled golden | :27:34. | :27:36. | |
generation. But his records and commitment to the cause may never be | :27:37. | :27:37. | |
matched. We saw that flooding earlier, let's | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
get the latest on the weather. Some dramatic and in places | :27:42. | :27:54. | |
disruptive weather. That was a picture from Scarborough. Something | :27:55. | :27:57. | |
a little bit calmer in their wake, some sunny spells and karma is the | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
story over the next few days. Some sunshine and showers, yes, but | :28:04. | :28:06. | |
particularly in the south, not many showers. It will be largely dry. On | :28:07. | :28:10. | |
the radar picture, this band of heavy downpours that pushed through | :28:11. | :28:13. | |
early on. Most places have seen the back of that weather now, although | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
some rain will hold on in the Northern Isles of Scotland as we go | :28:17. | :28:22. | |
through this some showers beginning to feed in across Northern Ireland | :28:23. | :28:24. | |
and western Scotland, some into north-west England. Further south, | :28:25. | :28:29. | |
largely dry, the odd patch of mist, perhaps, and a cooler and fresher | :28:30. | :28:36. | |
feel. That mixture of sunshine and showers, but depending on where you | :28:37. | :28:39. | |
are you will see more showers in the north and not as many in the South. | :28:40. | :28:44. | |
Southern parts should stay largely dry with spells of sunshine. A | :28:45. | :28:46. | |
greater chance of showers across northern England, greater still | :28:47. | :28:52. | |
across Northern Ireland and western Scotland, 18 in Glasgow, 22 in | :28:53. | :28:57. | |
London. Fresher feeling, but not bad in the sunshine. Fresher conditions | :28:58. | :29:02. | |
across Northern Ireland, some showers on the heavy side. Further | :29:03. | :29:06. | |
south and east you are, dry and sunny. Although Glasgow and Belfast | :29:07. | :29:10. | |
will only get to 17 degrees, it could be 21 in Cardiff, in the | :29:11. | :29:14. | |
sunshine in the south-east, 24 degrees is possible. Through the | :29:15. | :29:19. | |
weekend, any sunshine will feel pleasantly warm. One or two showers | :29:20. | :29:23. | |
in the south-east on Saturday night. Further north, some dry weather, | :29:24. | :29:26. | |
some showers. | :29:27. | :29:30. |
