:00:00. > :00:00.Tonight at six, new migration figures set off a debate about
:00:07. > :00:15.Net migration to the UK falls to the lowest level for three years.
:00:16. > :00:18.And there's a surge in the number of EU nationals leaving -
:00:19. > :00:22.many feel they're no longer earning enough in pounds.
:00:23. > :00:33.We want to go there because we can find good jobs for the same money.
:00:34. > :00:35.We'll have a close look at what's driving these migration changes.
:00:36. > :00:47.In England these were the first students to take new, tougher exams.
:00:48. > :00:49.Kim Briggs died after she was hit by a cyclist -
:00:50. > :00:54.now her husband calls for new laws to tackle reckless riders.
:00:55. > :00:57.I'm doing it in Kim's name, but I'm also doing it
:00:58. > :01:04.to ensure that, just perhaps, we can stop this happening again.
:01:05. > :01:07.Once they were thriving communities - today people in mining towns claim
:01:08. > :01:13.disability benefits at up to three times the national average.
:01:14. > :01:16.A walk a day keeps the doctor at bay - but millions don't even manage

:01:24. > :01:26.qualification last night, Liverpool are one of six British clubs who
:01:27. > :01:51.discover who they will face in this season's Champions League.
:01:52. > :01:55.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.
:01:56. > :01:58.There's been a sharp fall in net migration to the UK -
:01:59. > :02:00.that's the difference between the number of people
:02:01. > :02:03.It's at the lowest level for three years.
:02:04. > :02:06.Let's have a closer look at the numbers.
:02:07. > :02:11.Net migration now stands at 246,000 in the year to March 2017.
:02:12. > :02:17.That's a fall of 81,000 compared with the previous 12 months.
:02:18. > :02:22.More than half of that change is due to a fall in net migration of EU
:02:23. > :02:27.But remember, this still means there are twice as many EU nationals
:02:28. > :02:37.Here's our home affairs correspondent Daniel Sandford.
:02:38. > :02:45.For many Eastern Europeans, the time has come to go. The triggers, Brexit
:02:46. > :02:51.and the falling pound. Among the crowds at London's coach station,
:02:52. > :02:56.Daniel, who is handing back to Romania at Christmas. He said Leave
:02:57. > :03:04.voters had driven him out. I think they are a little bit racist with
:03:05. > :03:10.the European people. For that reason. That is why you are planning
:03:11. > :03:13.to leave? Yes, and also because sterling is going down, you know? We
:03:14. > :03:21.want to go there, because we can find good jobs for the same money.
:03:22. > :03:24.At this chicken hatchery in West Oxfordshire, they have become
:03:25. > :03:31.reliant on workers from countries like Poland that joined the EU in
:03:32. > :03:34.2004. It allowed their business to expand, year-on-year. But today's
:03:35. > :03:39.figures show that suddenly almost as many people from those countries are
:03:40. > :03:42.leaving as arriving. The owner is losing staff and struggling to find
:03:43. > :03:48.new ones. The referendum was when people really thought about it. Over
:03:49. > :03:52.the last 12 months or so, it has got worse and worse. People have thought
:03:53. > :03:54.about it more and more and it is now becoming a reality. This isn't
:03:55. > :04:00.something that might happen in the future, in 2019. People like myself,
:04:01. > :04:03.recruiting staff, it is a problem today. Further up the chain in
:04:04. > :04:07.chicken production they are even more reliant on EU workers. For the
:04:08. > :04:16.first time in years, he is planning to shrink the business, not grow it.
:04:17. > :04:19.Rightly or wrongly, huge sections of the agricultural, food production,
:04:20. > :04:22.hospitality and manufacturing industries in the UK have become
:04:23. > :04:29.reliant on a ready supply of workers from the European Union. Now, all of
:04:30. > :04:32.a sudden, that supply is drying up. Today's figures show the total
:04:33. > :04:37.number of people arriving in Britain to live, study or work, minus those
:04:38. > :04:41.leaving, is still almost 250,000 a year. But the headline figure is
:04:42. > :04:46.dropping and the single biggest factor is that fewer Europeans are
:04:47. > :04:51.coming, and more are leaving. It is good to see that we have net
:04:52. > :04:55.migration coming down, but we can't be complacent, we won't be
:04:56. > :04:59.complacent. There are still a lot of work to do, and we will continue to
:05:00. > :05:05.do that to deliver ultimately on the long-term ambition to see it fall to
:05:06. > :05:09.sustainable levels. Of course, millions of EU citizens are still
:05:10. > :05:12.working in the UK commonplaces like this Scandinavian cafe, and many
:05:13. > :05:17.will stay. But it is becoming less attractive. The UK economy is now
:05:18. > :05:20.performing less well, perhaps, than some of the eurozone economies.
:05:21. > :05:24.Another one is that the value of the pound has declined, which means,
:05:25. > :05:26.firstly, it is more expensive to live in the UK, things cost more.
:05:27. > :05:41.Also, if you are earning money in the UK and you want to
:05:42. > :05:43.spend it in another country or send it home to your family, it is worth
:05:44. > :05:46.less. The figures are the strongest sign yet of a Brexit effect on
:05:47. > :05:47.immigration. The question is, what will the knock-on effect be on the
:05:48. > :05:51.economy? We have looked at the Brexit effect,
:05:52. > :05:53.but there is another aspect, students? There has been concern
:05:54. > :05:57.that some people might have been using the route of coming to Britain
:05:58. > :06:00.to study as a sort of back door into the UK. The Government spent a lot
:06:01. > :06:04.of effort on closing down fake colleges that were being used as an
:06:05. > :06:09.illegal way of coming to Britain. Now, some work has been done to look
:06:10. > :06:14.at people who come on a student fees, what happens next? Actually, a
:06:15. > :06:18.very positive result for the Government, 97.4% of people that
:06:19. > :06:23.come here on a student Visa then leave and do not overstay in any
:06:24. > :06:26.kind of illegal manner. That is quite positive news for them. What
:06:27. > :06:33.the Government wants to lock-out is whether or not having this large
:06:34. > :06:37.number of international students have a positive effect on the
:06:38. > :06:41.economy, so having got the thing under control, they are now keen to
:06:42. > :06:44.show that this is actually something that is a net positive affect the
:06:45. > :06:47.economy, not something that does not have any great benefits all.
:06:48. > :06:50.Across England, Wales and Northern Ireland there's been
:06:51. > :06:54.a slight dip in the number of students getting the top grades.
:06:55. > :06:56.In England, this was the first year when pupils taking English
:06:57. > :06:59.and maths were sitting new, tougher exams.
:07:00. > :07:02.And they're marked differently - the old A* and A has been
:07:03. > :07:07.replaced by grades 7, 8 and 9.
:07:08. > :07:18.But it wasn't just students in England who faced some changes -
:07:19. > :07:26.as education editor Branwen Jeffreys reports.
:07:27. > :07:39.A jumble of letters and numbers. Mainly Cs... Two sixes and a five.
:07:40. > :07:45.Making sense of the GCSE results. The first 16-year-olds to take the
:07:46. > :07:52.tougher exams. There is new content that you have to learn. There is not
:07:53. > :07:56.much time to learn it in. We are learning a level stuff as well as
:07:57. > :08:02.GCSE. It is really difficult. It was a shock. It's making sure smart
:08:03. > :08:06.people get the grades they deserve, I think. Maybe? At this
:08:07. > :08:11.Nottinghamshire school, tears mainly of relief. For the kids this year,
:08:12. > :08:18.the new GCSEs have been a real culture shock. They have had to
:08:19. > :08:24.learn so much more, remember so much more, and their grades have all
:08:25. > :08:30.rested on these final exams. The results here, much better than last
:08:31. > :08:36.year. But at a cost. They couldn't teach it all in the school day. We
:08:37. > :08:40.have had a compulsory session after school, particularly focused on
:08:41. > :08:47.English and maths, but on a rotation other subjects, for the increased
:08:48. > :08:51.content. That will get even tougher as we move towards the new GCSEs in
:08:52. > :08:57.all of the other subjects. The pass rate in England for 16-year-olds
:08:58. > :09:02.moved just a little. In English language, 69.9% got a four or above,
:09:03. > :09:10.a little better than in the old exam last year. In English literature, it
:09:11. > :09:14.was 72.5%. In maths, 70.7%. Both just slightly down, because the
:09:15. > :09:27.great points are moved to avoid a big drop in results. -- grade
:09:28. > :09:32.points. Three A*s, the rest Bs. In Wales, the results included six new
:09:33. > :09:37.GCSEs. Many took exams a year early. As a result, fewer pupils got good
:09:38. > :09:43.grades, still counted here in A* to C. This is where they pick up the
:09:44. > :09:47.pieces. In England, maths and English resits are compulsory, for
:09:48. > :09:52.anyone getting a three this year. Does that help us be a better
:09:53. > :09:58.skilled nation? It is a significant concern for us. Not just about how
:09:59. > :10:06.they are going to do it, but also the appropriateness. A lot of young
:10:07. > :10:10.people come to colleges to go into vocational education, into technical
:10:11. > :10:16.education and GCSEs, traditional GCSE routes. Are there was the right
:10:17. > :10:20.routes? Today's results are just the beginning. What children learn in
:10:21. > :10:23.England is changing, with more tough GCSEs to follow.
:10:24. > :10:25.Amongst those receiving their results today
:10:26. > :10:31.She sat one of her exams in the days after she found out that her brother
:10:32. > :10:34.Martyn Hett had died in the Manchester Arena bombing.
:10:35. > :10:35.The 16-year-old from Stockport Grammar was trying
:10:36. > :10:38.to revise while the rest of the family was waiting
:10:39. > :10:59.Or did you get in your GCSEs? 11 A*s! Her school said they would
:11:00. > :11:04.accept her predicted grades when they heard her brother, Martyn, was
:11:05. > :11:09.killed right in the middle of her GCSEs. But Nikita wanted to sit her
:11:10. > :11:13.exams. She said they gave her something to focus on, which helped
:11:14. > :11:18.her deal with the pain of losing her brother. Was a massive shock. I
:11:19. > :11:25.think the shock lasted a long time. I wasn't really focused on sadness,
:11:26. > :11:33.it was more... It was just weird. Everything was really weird. Then
:11:34. > :11:36.exams are something that was something else. Her family were
:11:37. > :11:42.impressed by her performance. Her brother said, my little sister is an
:11:43. > :11:46.actual hero. 11 A*s grades. I've never been more proud or amazed by
:11:47. > :11:53.anyone. Her parents couldn't quite believe it. After everything that
:11:54. > :11:58.had happened, I think we were just hoping she would get... Do well, but
:11:59. > :12:01.we expected there to be some sort of repercussion in the results and it
:12:02. > :12:05.affect her performance in some way. I thought, well, if she didn't do
:12:06. > :12:13.well in some subjects, she could resit them next year. So to see that
:12:14. > :12:17.result, just... Unbelievable. So, what would Martyn think of his
:12:18. > :12:24.little sister's achievements? Who would be so happy, tweeting about
:12:25. > :12:29.it. More excited than I am. And she will continue to do her brother
:12:30. > :12:30.proud. She plans to go on to study A-levels in maths, further maths,
:12:31. > :12:35.physics and classics. A woman who made up a string
:12:36. > :12:38.of false rape and sexual assault allegations has been jailed for ten
:12:39. > :12:41.years for perjury and perverting Jemma Beale, who's 25,
:12:42. > :12:45.was found guilty in July. One of the men she wrongly accused

:12:50. > :12:52.all of her claims had cost at least Yesterday we brought you the case
:12:53. > :12:59.involving Kim Briggs, who died after she had been knocked down
:13:00. > :13:02.by cyclist Charlie Alliston. The case has sparked off an argument
:13:03. > :13:06.about whether the law as it stands is fit for an age when more and more
:13:07. > :13:10.people are travelling on two wheels. In court, the jury convicted
:13:11. > :13:13.Alliston of wanton and furious driving, a crime which dates back
:13:14. > :13:16.to Victorian times. Kim's husband, Matt,
:13:17. > :13:19.is now calling for a new law - She had this mantra
:13:20. > :13:27.of make every day count. Enormous believer in filling life
:13:28. > :13:31.with experiences, with travel. A wife and mother who died after
:13:32. > :13:40.suffering serious head injuries. She was hit by a bike that shouldn't
:13:41. > :13:44.have been on the road. It was designed for the velodrome -
:13:45. > :13:48.fixed gear and with no front brake. Charlie Alliston, in
:13:49. > :13:50.the middle, was riding. He was cleared of manslaughter,
:13:51. > :13:53.but convicted of causing bodily harm by wanton or furious driving,
:13:54. > :13:59.under a law from Victorian times. I'm just asking that the law
:14:00. > :14:08.catches up, as it is doing This case raises some broader issues
:14:09. > :14:13.about how cyclists and pedestrians But the key question is how much
:14:14. > :14:19.responsibility should cyclists have Should that responsibility be
:14:20. > :14:25.at the same level as car drivers? It's prompted plenty of debate,
:14:26. > :14:30.especially amongst cyclists. We all have a responsibility
:14:31. > :14:33.to each other on the roads. I think, you know, if someone's
:14:34. > :14:36.causing death by dangerous cycling, why should that be different,
:14:37. > :14:39.in a sense, from causing death You regularly see bikes that
:14:40. > :14:44.aren't fit for the road, basically and shouldn't be out
:14:45. > :14:47.on the road. Bikes with freewheels,
:14:48. > :14:50.that have brakes that don't work, which are more dangerous
:14:51. > :14:54.than a fixed-wheel without brakes. Some cycling groups want to see
:14:55. > :14:57.all traffic laws reviewed The problem we've got is there's
:14:58. > :15:03.a stack of offences in relation to the conduct of people
:15:04. > :15:08.on the roads, where we use careless, reckless, furious, wanton,
:15:09. > :15:10.dangerous, and there's Matt Briggs rides a bike himself,
:15:11. > :15:17.but he thinks a change This is the right thing to do and,
:15:18. > :15:22.yes, I'm doing it in Kim's name, but I'm also doing it to ensure
:15:23. > :15:25.that, just perhaps, we can stop Many more pedestrians and cyclists
:15:26. > :15:34.are killed by vehicles. But our streets are getting
:15:35. > :15:36.busier, with the potential Net migration to the UK falls
:15:37. > :15:54.to the lowest level for three years and there's a surge in the number
:15:55. > :15:57.of EU nationals leaving. And coming up, a tune
:15:58. > :16:03.for a British summer. Test Match Special
:16:04. > :16:18.marks its 60th birthday. Coming up in Sportsday on BBC News,
:16:19. > :16:22.Zlatan Ibrahimovic says his back to finish what he started at Manchester
:16:23. > :16:24.United, he has signed a new one-year deal after his debut season was
:16:25. > :16:33.ended by injury. You'd have thought a ten-minute walk
:16:34. > :16:36.a day is not asking much but you'd be surprised how
:16:37. > :16:38.few of us manage that. Officials at Public Health
:16:39. > :16:40.England have found that over 40% of adults aged between 40
:16:41. > :16:43.and 60 don't manage even one brisk That has a cost - one in six adult
:16:44. > :16:50.deaths are linked to inactivity. And it turns out we are 20% less
:16:51. > :16:55.active then we were in the 1960s. Here's our health
:16:56. > :17:08.correspondent Dominic Hughes. In the Derbyshire Peak District,
:17:09. > :17:14.these walkers are about to head to the hills. I believe the weather is
:17:15. > :17:19.going to be fine, we hope! The beauty of walking is it's free, you
:17:20. > :17:25.don't need any special training or kit, and there are physical and
:17:26. > :17:30.mental benefits. People like Liam Quigley who joined this club after
:17:31. > :17:33.putting on weight in his 50s. Psychologically it's great, if you
:17:34. > :17:38.feel a bit down and you come to an area like this, get a few miles
:17:39. > :17:44.under your belt and you get home feeling 100% better. Nothing seems
:17:45. > :17:50.as bad as it did before. Now Public Health England says not enough
:17:51. > :17:54.adults are getting activity, but walking briskly at around three
:17:55. > :17:57.miles per hour for around ten minutes per day can significantly
:17:58. > :18:03.reduce the risk of ill-health. That's the advice GP Doctor Zoe
:18:04. > :18:09.Williams offers her patients. Practising what she preaches, she
:18:10. > :18:14.uses a smartphone app to measure her progress. Millions of adults are
:18:15. > :18:21.missing out. Four in ten adults between the ages of 40 and 60 are
:18:22. > :18:24.not managing to achieve ten minutes of brisk walking per month, which
:18:25. > :18:29.sounds unbelievable, and lots of those people will be walking but not
:18:30. > :18:33.walking at a brisk pace and it's important to walk briskly because
:18:34. > :18:39.that's when you get the health benefits. But for many, time is the
:18:40. > :18:44.biggest obstacle to exercise. Generally I will rather drive them
:18:45. > :18:50.walk because I need to get there in a hurry. We do go for a walk but not
:18:51. > :18:55.always brisk. You can always make time. One less cake, one more walk.
:18:56. > :18:59.This advice from health experts to do ten minutes of brisk walking per
:19:00. > :19:03.day sounds simple enough but many struggle to work that kind of
:19:04. > :19:08.activity into our everyday lives so here are some tips if you use public
:19:09. > :19:13.transport to get to work you could hop off a stop early and continued
:19:14. > :19:18.the rest of your journey on foot. Once you get to work, don't take the
:19:19. > :19:34.lift, use the stairs. If you get a lunch
:19:35. > :19:38.hour, you could use that time to stretch your legs. Walking can help
:19:39. > :19:40.with weight loss, back pain, long-term conditions like diabetes,
:19:41. > :19:42.even reducing the risk of cancer. Now we are all being urged to get up

:20:17. > :20:19.maybe some slight wrinkle in it but people are finding it hard to
:20:20. > :20:23.justify the added cost and that's the other factor, they are just
:20:24. > :20:29.getting more expensive. The fall in the pound has led to big rises in
:20:30. > :20:39.prices. We saw Samsung issue a phone which will cost ?869 as a starting
:20:40. > :20:42.price, and there are rumours that the new iPhone may cost up to ?1000

:21:56. > :22:08.It was a dangerous job that left its mark on the miners
:22:09. > :22:11.who risked their lives, leaving many with hearing loss, lung
:22:12. > :22:16.Once part of a thriving community - now neglected, forgotten.
:22:17. > :22:26.High rates of unemployment, poverty and three times as many
:22:27. > :22:28.people claiming disability benefits than the national average.
:22:29. > :22:31.These people gave their life to this country to produce coal,
:22:32. > :22:33.they've just been left to wither on the vine.
:22:34. > :22:37.You shouldn't be treating people with disabilities
:22:38. > :22:45.Ron worked here for more than 40 years.
:22:46. > :22:47.His life underground left him deaf, and now he's blind.
:22:48. > :22:51.He no longer feels he belongs in the village he once loved.
:22:52. > :22:53.There's nothing in this area for us. Nothing.
:22:54. > :23:06.And I couldn't. I couldn't.
:23:07. > :23:09.The community is trying to regain what it's lost.
:23:10. > :23:11.I didn't know what I was entitled to...
:23:12. > :23:13.This friendly drop-in centre offers locals the chance to meet and get
:23:14. > :23:20.help with the very basics, like food, housing and transport.
:23:21. > :23:22.What we'll do is speak to the carers...
:23:23. > :23:24.Nick is one of those getting that help, a referral
:23:25. > :23:32.A proud miner who has hit rock bottom.
:23:33. > :23:35.Anybody asked for anything, I'd be there straight away to do it.
:23:36. > :23:37.Now, if it's me needing help, I don't know.
:23:38. > :23:48.The demise of the coal-mining industry has left
:23:49. > :23:51.It's unlikely this generation will see the investment that's
:23:52. > :23:55.so badly needed to improve the lives of disabled people who live in these
:23:56. > :24:14.Test Match Special is celebrating its 60th birthday today
:24:15. > :24:17.Teams of celebrities coached by the BBC's cricket correspondent
:24:18. > :24:20.Jonathan Agnew and the former England batsman Geoffrey Boycott
:24:21. > :24:22.have been playing at the University of Leeds.
:24:23. > :24:23.Our Media Correspondent, Amol Rajan, looks back
:24:24. > :24:51.It's the sound of the English summer and this year it turned 60. He got
:24:52. > :24:54.there in the slips! Four sixths decades, Test Match Special has
:24:55. > :24:58.marked the fluctuating fortunes of English cricketers at home and
:24:59. > :25:02.abroad, and in 1991 it delivered perhaps the most famous episode of
:25:03. > :25:07.cricketing commentary ever when Brian Johnston and Jonathan Agnew
:25:08. > :25:17.caught the giggles. He just didn't quite get his leg over. For
:25:18. > :25:21.goodness' sake, stop it! It's obviously funny because people laugh
:25:22. > :25:24.at it and it's amazing really, it captured everything about Test Match
:25:25. > :25:29.Special I think. There are people having fun in the commentary box,
:25:30. > :25:35.that innuendo that goes on at the same time. It's a bit charming and
:25:36. > :25:40.silly. Cricket lends itself to talk radio. The long pauses and epic
:25:41. > :25:44.drama which unfolds over five days have to be filled with something,
:25:45. > :25:48.and that's something for the past 60 years has been the eccentrically
:25:49. > :25:54.English banter in the commentary box. Cricket itself has changed
:25:55. > :25:56.irreversibly over that period and Test Match Special celebrating today
:25:57. > :26:00.has always tried to move with the times. It's the stories, the
:26:01. > :26:06.characters behind the microphone that bring the sport we love so much
:26:07. > :26:12.to life. Ebony played as a professional and is now part of the
:26:13. > :26:16.Test Match Special team. It was a fast, dynamic way of getting into
:26:17. > :26:19.the game, and more women have got involved with different types of
:26:20. > :26:24.games and shown we are adaptable across all formats. The game,
:26:25. > :26:28.because it has moved on, it has kept up with the times. In recent decades
:26:29. > :26:32.television rights and then the internet drugs this most traditional
:26:33. > :26:37.of games into modernity but before then it was the old transistor radio
:26:38. > :26:43.that being the latest score to an engrossed public. And 60 years on,
:26:44. > :26:47.Test Match Special is bowling over new audiences as never before.
:26:48. > :26:49.The UK's only female giant panda, Tian Tian,
:26:50. > :26:53.Her keepers at Edinburgh Zoo say they don't have an exact due date
:26:54. > :26:57.Tian Tian was thought to have been pregnant several times before
:26:58. > :27:03.but has never given birth to a live cub.
:27:04. > :27:13.I suspect we will have to wait a little while to see if we get the
:27:14. > :27:17.baby panda and we will have to wait and see if the weather changes as
:27:18. > :27:20.well because it's not going to change much over the next few days.
:27:21. > :27:24.The sort of whether you had today is the sort of whether you will get
:27:25. > :27:28.over the next few days so Northern Ireland for example seeing some rain
:27:29. > :27:33.at times, not all the time and it will feel fairly cool. Further south
:27:34. > :27:46.and east largely dry, not too many showers and pleasantly
:27:47. > :27:50.warm in any sunshine, as it was for this weather watcher in Kent
:27:51. > :27:52.earlier. We have this low pressure to the west but rather than moving
:27:53. > :27:55.through quickly it will spin around aimlessly over the next few days. It
:27:56. > :27:57.will continue to feed rain into western Scotland and Northern
:27:58. > :28:01.Ireland overnight. Tomorrow, very little changes. Still outbreaks of
:28:02. > :28:05.rain into Northern Ireland and western Scotland, nothing
:28:06. > :28:09.desperately heavy. Eastern Scotland and northern England seeing a few
:28:10. > :28:14.showers. More cloud developing into the afternoon but the vast majority
:28:15. > :28:21.will stay dry. While temperatures in Glasgow and Belfast will top out at
:28:22. > :28:26.16 or 17 degrees, in London we could be seen 25 degrees. Into the start
:28:27. > :28:30.of the weekend our area of low pressure spinning aimlessly to the
:28:31. > :28:33.north, but one subtle change, a weather front which will introduce
:28:34. > :28:43.some cloud across England and Wales on Saturday. Maybe the odd shower.
:28:44. > :28:47.Some spells and sunshine in between, 17-25d. As we get into the latter
:28:48. > :28:53.part of the weekend, Sunday and Monday, a bank holiday for many,
:28:54. > :28:55.central and eastern areas should be dry, further north the chance of a
:28:56. > :28:59.shower on Sunday. That's all from the BBC News at Six
:29:00. > :29:03.so it's goodbye from me - and on BBC One we now join the BBC's
:29:04. > :29:04.news teams where you are.
