0:00:19 > 0:00:22a serial sex attacker thought to have carried out more than 100
0:00:22 > 0:00:30assaults including rape.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32The announcement that former black cab driver,
0:00:32 > 0:00:35John Worboys, would be released caused outrage among many victims.
0:00:35 > 0:00:42The Parole Board says it's confident correct procedures were followed.
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Good morning.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48It's Sunday the 13th of January.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Also this morning.
0:00:52 > 0:00:53Panic in paradise.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hawaii's governor apologises after a missilie attack alert
0:00:55 > 0:00:57was mistakenly sent to residents and broadcast on TV.
0:00:57 > 0:01:02A correction wasn't sent until almost 40 minutes later.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05UKIP suspends the girlfriend of its party leader,
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Henry Bolton after she reportedly made racist remarks
0:01:07 > 0:01:13about Prince Harry's fiance, Meghan Markle.
0:01:13 > 0:01:18Good morning. England look for revenge over Australia as the one
0:01:18 > 0:01:29day series begins. An incredible season for Tottenham as well.
0:01:33 > 0:01:34season for Tottenham as well. Harry Kane becomes a record goal-scorer.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36It's one of the UK's most visited cities,

0:01:40 > 0:01:42a tourist tax to help keep its buildings beautiful.
0:01:42 > 0:01:42a tourist tax to help keep its buildings beautiful.
0:01:42 > 0:01:43And Sarah has the weather.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47Good morning. Another cloudy day today. Brightness breaking through
0:01:47 > 0:01:51later on. This evening, things turn wet and windy. More details and 15
0:01:51 > 0:01:57minutes. Thank you. We will see you later.
0:01:57 > 0:01:58First, our main story.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01The Justice Secretary, David Gauke, is considering a possible judicial
0:02:01 > 0:02:04review of the decision to release the serial sex attacker,
0:02:04 > 0:02:04John Worboys.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07The former black cab driver was jailed indefinitely in 2009
0:02:07 > 0:02:10with a minimum term of eight years, for drugging and sexually
0:02:10 > 0:02:11assaulting twelve women.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Earlier this month a decision by the parole board to release him
0:02:14 > 0:02:15was fiercely criticised.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Our political correspondent, Leila Nathoo, joins us now.
0:02:17 > 0:02:24Leila, how significant is this?
0:02:24 > 0:02:28What is the Justice Secretary going to be looking it?
0:02:28 > 0:02:30What is the Justice Secretary going to be looking it?The government has
0:02:30 > 0:02:34commissioned a review into how the parole board makes its decisions,
0:02:34 > 0:02:38whether there should be more transparency after the outcry about
0:02:38 > 0:02:44the decision to release Worboys. They said they were not involved in
0:02:44 > 0:02:48the process. Some only recently found out about his release through
0:02:48 > 0:02:58the media. They were concerned that they could be attacked again. The
0:02:58 > 0:03:03new Justice Secretary, who was moved in in the recent cabinet reshuffle,
0:03:03 > 0:03:07he is seeking advice on whether a judicial review would have any
0:03:07 > 0:03:12prospect of success. That will look at the lawfulness of that initial
0:03:12 > 0:03:19decision. He is expecting to get that advice this week. He will only
0:03:19 > 0:03:24proceed with a reasonable chance of success. This is a highly unusual
0:03:24 > 0:03:27move for a Justice Secretary to intervene in this way, to even look
0:03:27 > 0:03:32at the possibility of a judicial review. The parole board is strictly
0:03:32 > 0:03:35independent. They would have insisted proper procedures were
0:03:35 > 0:03:40followed in this case. But it is also understood in the event Worboys
0:03:40 > 0:03:47does get released, victims groups will be able to make rough
0:03:47 > 0:03:55presentations to the parole board about his parole. --
0:03:55 > 0:03:58representations.Thank you.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01The Governor of Hawaii has apologised, and promised to tighten
0:04:01 > 0:04:03procedures, after authorities mistakenly issued an alert,
0:04:03 > 0:04:05warning of an imminent ballistic missile attack.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08An official text message, sent to people's phones in error,
0:04:08 > 0:04:09left people scrambling for shelter.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12A corrected message wasn't sent out until nearly 40 minutes later.
0:04:12 > 0:04:20Bill Hayton reports.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24For 30 minutes on Saturday, the people of Hawaii looked
0:04:24 > 0:04:27anxiously to the skies.
0:04:27 > 0:04:33We thought if this is the end, we are in a beautiful place doing
0:04:33 > 0:04:37something we love.Was a North Korean nuclear missile about to hit
0:04:37 > 0:04:46Honolulu? No. The whole thing was simply a mistake.
0:04:46 > 0:05:00simply a mistake.This started at 0805. The wrong button was pushed
0:05:00 > 0:05:020805. The wrong button was pushed on this test. It went to an actual
0:05:02 > 0:05:06event.The click of a single button could be responsible for so much
0:05:06 > 0:05:11panic? The anger is directed towards the state government.What happened
0:05:11 > 0:05:18today was totally unacceptable. Many in our community were deeply
0:05:18 > 0:05:27affected by this, and I am sorry for that pain and confusion anyone may
0:05:27 > 0:05:32have experienced.At least everyone now knows the warning system works,
0:05:32 > 0:05:35but that is small comfort for millions who thought their world was
0:05:35 > 0:05:43going to end on Saturday.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47We will talk about that more later and talk to people caught up in it.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51That his later. Other news now.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54UKIP has suspended the girlfriend of its party leader,
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Henry Bolton after she reportedly made offensive remarks
0:05:56 > 0:05:58about Prince Harry's fiancee, Meghan Markle.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01The Mail on Sunday has published text messages sent by Jo Marney that
0:06:01 > 0:06:03include derogatory comments about ethnic minorities.
0:06:03 > 0:06:09Dan Johnson reports.
0:06:09 > 0:06:15You are all still here!He has only been leader since last September,
0:06:15 > 0:06:19and it emerged Henry Bolton left his wife for a former glamour model 30
0:06:19 > 0:06:25years younger. Now, the Mail on Sunday has published a text message
0:06:25 > 0:06:32exchange involving her. In it, she wrote Meghan Markle had a tiny brain
0:06:32 > 0:06:36and would taint the royal family and that black people were only. When a
0:06:36 > 0:06:42reply was sent suggesting the comments made the racist, she said
0:06:42 > 0:06:46so what? She did not want other races invading her culture. In a
0:06:46 > 0:06:53statement, she said this.
0:06:55 > 0:07:02statement, she said this. She then said this.
0:07:04 > 0:07:10said this. UKIP confirmed he has been suspended. The party leader
0:07:10 > 0:07:14said last night he did not want to comment. Dan Johnson, BBC News.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Talks aimed at securing the future of the troubled engineering company
0:07:17 > 0:07:18Carillion resume later.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21The firm builds roads, schools and hospitals and parts
0:07:21 > 0:07:25of the high speed rail line, HS2, but has soaring debts and large hole
0:07:25 > 0:07:26in its pension fund.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28The Government says it's working on contingency plans
0:07:28 > 0:07:29should it collapse.
0:07:29 > 0:07:36Our business correspondent, Joe Lynam, reports.
0:07:36 > 0:07:41Carillion is probably the biggest British company you have never heard
0:07:41 > 0:07:45of. It is in engineering, construction, and outsourcing giant
0:07:45 > 0:07:49which maintains dozens of schools, and prisons, and is building parts
0:07:49 > 0:07:54of HS2 and the royal Liverpool hospital thanks to PFI contracts.
0:07:54 > 0:08:01But it also owes the bank more than £1 million, and that is why there
0:08:01 > 0:08:05are crucial talks today about what might happen if Carillion is good in
0:08:05 > 0:08:09administration. What happens if Carillion cannot find a solution
0:08:09 > 0:08:14with the banks? The government could deal out the company and essentially
0:08:14 > 0:08:18nationalise it with the moral hazard attached to that. It could take back
0:08:18 > 0:08:22all of the contracts would Carillion and reassign them to help their
0:08:22 > 0:08:26companies, or it could put them in administration. Consultants would
0:08:26 > 0:08:30then end up on profitable parts.The potential could be devastating. Many
0:08:30 > 0:08:36of them are owed millions by Carillion, and if they do not get
0:08:36 > 0:08:40those moneys, well, the other thing is thousands of jobs will
0:08:40 > 0:08:46potentially be lost as a result. Today is a vital day for the 20,000
0:08:46 > 0:08:49employees in Britain of Carillion and thousands more completely
0:08:49 > 0:08:53dependent on it. The government says it has robust contingency plans in
0:08:53 > 0:09:02place if the business collapses. But even if it survives intact, the
0:09:02 > 0:09:05issue of PFI contracts may be reopened after this episode. Joe
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Lynam, BBC News.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Tenants could be given greater powers to tackle rogue landlords
0:09:09 > 0:09:11after the Government agreed to back a private members' bill.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15It comes as figures show one in ten tenants has had a gas leak,
0:09:15 > 0:09:18a fire or safety concern in their home over the last year.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Adrian Goldberg from 5Live investigates has the story,
0:09:21 > 0:09:24tell us more.
0:09:24 > 0:09:34This story just moved on in the Last 24 hours.Very much so. We were
0:09:34 > 0:09:38being told the government was not backing this private members bill,
0:09:38 > 0:09:42though they were talking to the MP concerned. They felt essentially
0:09:42 > 0:09:47local government had enough powers to clamp down on rogue landlords,
0:09:47 > 0:09:53and further powers would not go as far as the proposed legislation.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Yesterday, I got an e-mail through, saying the government is going to
0:09:56 > 0:10:01back the private members bill which will give tenants powers as
0:10:01 > 0:10:07individuals to take on rogue landlords. So, that is quite a big
0:10:07 > 0:10:10shift for the government. And I suppose it reflects some of the
0:10:10 > 0:10:13complaints that have been about the quality of housing across the entire
0:10:13 > 0:10:20rental sector in England.This is more than just wallpaper, it is
0:10:20 > 0:10:26serious issues.Yes. The MP concerned commissioned a Freedom of
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Information request from local councils across England. Using those
0:10:29 > 0:10:35figures, she and her colleagues estimated 1 million homes, 3 million
0:10:35 > 0:10:43people, in Category 1 hazards. This is not a
0:10:47 > 0:10:50is not a bit of peeling paint, putting your life in danger,
0:10:50 > 0:10:54affecting your health. There is bad housing out there to be if this goes
0:10:54 > 0:10:57through, you will have the power as an individual to take on your
0:10:57 > 0:11:01landlord. They will have to make sure any home is fit for human
0:11:01 > 0:11:04habitation.Arthur Grenfell Tower, there is no excuse for taking it
0:11:04 > 0:11:07seriously. -- After.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10And you can hear more on this story on 5Live Investigates on BBC Radio
0:11:10 > 0:11:115Live at 11 today.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15Absolutely. Tune in for that.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Not many parents will forget their children's first words
0:11:17 > 0:11:19but this mum and dad will definitely remember.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Their baby was just three months old when Laura Webster
0:11:22 > 0:11:24filmed her husband Tom as he successfully encouraged little
0:11:24 > 0:11:29Jenson to talk.
0:11:29 > 0:11:48Hello. Say hello. Get out! That has to be a fluke.Do it again.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51to be a fluke.Do it again.That is so brilliant! I love the reaction of
0:11:51 > 0:11:58the dad. I want to watch that again. Can we have another lesson?Hello.
0:11:58 > 0:12:06Say hello.
0:12:06 > 0:12:13Say hello.Get out!We could watch that all morning. We will keep that
0:12:13 > 0:12:19on a loop. You have heard of drug sniffer dogs, but what about bug
0:12:19 > 0:12:24sniffer dogs. The Boston museum of fine arts in Massachusetts has
0:12:24 > 0:12:35introduced its newest employee.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53introduced its newest employee. It is Riley. He is trained to sniff out
0:12:53 > 0:12:57bugs that could damage artwork. He is the first of his kind and will be
0:12:57 > 0:13:01paid in treats and squeaky toys. Is that the dog minimum wage?That is
0:13:01 > 0:13:03the best way to start your weekend. Good news.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Back to Hawaii now, where a missile alert caused widespread panic
0:13:06 > 0:13:08after it warned of an imminent attack.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10It turned out to be a mistake.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Emma Hine and her son, Lewis, are from Portsmouth,
0:13:12 > 0:13:15but are over in Hawaii, and join us from their hotel.
0:13:15 > 0:13:23Good morning. There are three few! -- three of you. What happened?At
0:13:23 > 0:13:29half past eight this morning, there was a siren in the hotel that went
0:13:29 > 0:13:35off. At the same time, everyone got a text message to say there was an
0:13:35 > 0:13:39imminent missile warning, seek shelter immediately. It said this
0:13:39 > 0:13:44was not a drill, and it was absolutely terrifying. We did not
0:13:44 > 0:13:51know what to do.We are just looking at the text message now. I mean, it
0:13:51 > 0:13:55seems so simple and clear, doesn't it? It seems terrifying if you were
0:13:55 > 0:14:02on the receiving end of that. What did you do? The hotel told you to
0:14:02 > 0:14:05seek shelter. Where did you go?We were having breakfast at the time.
0:14:05 > 0:14:11We were in the hotel room. My initial reaction was to actually get
0:14:11 > 0:14:16Jessica. Ice started running towards the hotel room. As I was running
0:14:16 > 0:14:19through the hotel room towards the hotel room there were people
0:14:19 > 0:14:24everywhere. The hotel did not know what was going on. There was panic
0:14:24 > 0:14:30everywhere. They were telling everyone to stay in their rooms.
0:14:30 > 0:14:37People were just so one sure about what was happening. -- so unsure.
0:14:37 > 0:14:45The staff panicking made everyone panic even more.And then, of
0:14:45 > 0:14:49course, subsequently another message was sent, making it clear it was a
0:14:49 > 0:14:54false alarm and no missile was imminent. Bike it took a good while
0:14:54 > 0:14:59for that to come through to you. Yeah, definitely. -- But that. It
0:14:59 > 0:15:04was over half an hour until the next message saying it was not real. That
0:15:04 > 0:15:11is a long time if you think you are going to be hit by a missile. It was
0:15:11 > 0:15:15sheer panic to be everything goes through your mind. I thought it was
0:15:15 > 0:15:23over.That turns to anger after a while, does it?Yeah, I mean, when
0:15:23 > 0:15:28they said it was a mistake, it was unbelievable. There must have been
0:15:28 > 0:15:33millions of people like us absolutely terrified. It was on the
0:15:33 > 0:15:38television. It was everywhere! Hearing a siren makes you panic. For
0:15:38 > 0:15:44everyone to get a text message... Jessica was in a hotel room on her
0:15:44 > 0:15:48own and got the text message it was absolutely terrified. She is
0:15:48 > 0:15:54thinking what is going to happen?
0:15:54 > 0:15:59I wonder if Jessica and Lewis can hear us on the phone and can you
0:15:59 > 0:16:07explain a bit about why you are there?Yeah. I'm here in Hawaii to
0:16:07 > 0:16:16receive an award.
0:16:17 > 0:16:23receive an award. No one expected it to turn out like this. The me, I was
0:16:23 > 0:16:29absolutely terrified.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33absolutely terrified. We didn't know what to do. What was going to
0:16:33 > 0:16:40happen.And Jessica, as your mother said, you are in a hotel room on
0:16:40 > 0:16:44your own because Lewis and your mother were out. What went through
0:16:44 > 0:16:50your mind? What advice were you given?I didn't really know what it
0:16:50 > 0:16:55was and it wasn't until my mother burst the hotel room door to say
0:16:55 > 0:17:00look, we need to leave. That's when I thought it was scary and real. The
0:17:00 > 0:17:06text message... I didn't really want to believe anything so I just went
0:17:06 > 0:17:13back to what I was doing.Best of luck to you all. Thank you for
0:17:13 > 0:17:20telling us your story this morning. An awful time. Emma, Lewis and
0:17:20 > 0:17:29Jessica, try and enjoy the rest of your trip if you can.
0:17:29 > 0:17:34We are going to look at this morning's weather this morning.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39I do know that is the type of weather where we will bring out the
0:17:39 > 0:17:40garlands are around our necks.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43weather where we will bring out the garlands are around our necks.We
0:17:43 > 0:17:48have been used to grey skies over the past 34 days. Another cloudy day
0:17:48 > 0:17:55at we will see that cloud in and breakup.
0:17:55 > 0:18:01breakup. -- thin. This turning up and settled tonight. For much of the
0:18:01 > 0:18:09day, not bad. -- things turning unsettled. The sequences of sunshine
0:18:09 > 0:18:14for parts of the West Country, Wales, northern England. Cloudy for
0:18:14 > 0:18:19northern England and Scotland. The strong winds picking up as well.
0:18:19 > 0:18:26Ahead of that, temperatures for-9d with lighter winds. Looking good for
0:18:26 > 0:18:31the Premier League matches. A bit of sunshine to be enjoyed in
0:18:31 > 0:18:37Bournemouth. Cloudy in Liverpool. This is when we see the strong winds
0:18:37 > 0:18:42heating up, 70 mph, strong winds and heavy rain transfer eastwards across
0:18:42 > 0:18:46the country and into the early hours of the morning, they will be
0:18:46 > 0:18:53rattling the windows. Cold air with wintry showers filtering in from the
0:18:53 > 0:18:59north-west. Monday morning, most of us start date frost free but we will
0:18:59 > 0:19:07have strong winds. We have it set up as we start the working week.
0:19:07 > 0:19:13Monday, strong winds and heavy rain, court slowly clearing to the east.
0:19:13 > 0:19:18-- slowly clearing. Wintry showers, falling to slow even to lower levels
0:19:18 > 0:19:22in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Further west, sleet and snow over
0:19:22 > 0:19:26the higher ground but could have some thunder and lightning mixed in
0:19:26 > 0:19:34for lower ground. The Tuesday, Sunshine, heavy, wintry showers, and
0:19:34 > 0:19:40temperatures down, around 3-8. Middle of the week, potential for
0:19:40 > 0:19:44disruptive weather. Into Thursday, this low pressure system is moving
0:19:44 > 0:19:48eastwards across the southern half of the country, bringing heavy rain
0:19:48 > 0:19:52and snow and pretty windy conditions, too. Particularly
0:19:52 > 0:19:57through Wednesday night and into Thursday. For the week ahead, are
0:19:57 > 0:20:02much colder theme. Windy and unsubtle. A return to some snow for
0:20:02 > 0:20:07many of us, mostly over the higher ground and South and across Scotland
0:20:07 > 0:20:11and Northern Ireland, some of the snow could be to lower levels. This
0:20:11 > 0:20:15going on for the week ahead but many of us, not a bad day today with a
0:20:15 > 0:20:20few glimpses of sunshine.Thanks, Sarah. We will look out for those.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22few glimpses of sunshine.Thanks, Sarah. We will look out for those.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25It's known for its Roman baths and historic Abbey,
0:20:25 > 0:20:27but Bath could soon become famous for something else.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30The city is bidding to become the first place in Britain
0:20:30 > 0:20:33to introduce a tourist tax - like Paris and Rome.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35Council leaders say by charging hotel guests an extra £1
0:20:35 > 0:20:38to visit, they could put the money back into frontline services.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41But there are concerns the charge could deter visitors.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44We've been in Bath finding out what tourists already make
0:20:44 > 0:20:52of the move.
0:20:56 > 0:21:02We are from Brazil. Over there, we have two pay to visit the museums,
0:21:02 > 0:21:07we are used to playing taxes. From what we are seeing hit this would be
0:21:07 > 0:21:11interesting.I don't think it's fair on the hotel stop they are bringing
0:21:11 > 0:21:15in the tourists so why should they have a second levy on them when they
0:21:15 > 0:21:19are creating the tourists and giving them somewhere to stay?It is quite
0:21:19 > 0:21:24a common thing in the Europe, in cities, to apply a same sort of tax.
0:21:24 > 0:21:30I wouldn't have a problem with it. If the money I spend on the things
0:21:30 > 0:21:35like I spend on, it could be beneficial and a wonderful idea. On
0:21:35 > 0:21:38the other hand, I feel there should be somebody to monitor that actually
0:21:38 > 0:21:45the money is spent on those things. Bath is a beautiful city. I would
0:21:45 > 0:21:49love to see it maintained and knowing what the money was going
0:21:49 > 0:21:51towards, I would definitely do that, yes.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Joining us now from our Bristol studio is Tim Warren,
0:21:54 > 0:21:56the Leader of Bath and North East Somerset Council,
0:21:56 > 0:22:04and Phoebe Smith a travel writer and editor of Wanderlust Magazine.
0:22:04 > 0:22:12Good morning to you both. Phoebe, I start with you. It is an interesting
0:22:12 > 0:22:17proposal. No one wants to be the first to do it.Note, no one wants
0:22:17 > 0:22:20to be the first because then they will be labelled and become known as
0:22:20 > 0:22:24the place that did it first. The thing is, though, the people that do
0:22:24 > 0:22:29it first, they will be the test case. It might turn people off going
0:22:29 > 0:22:34there and as with most taxes, if it goes through and is successful, it
0:22:34 > 0:22:39will roll out and say that is bad news for tourists.It might not just
0:22:39 > 0:22:48rollout but go up.They never go down!Let's talk to Tim. £1 per
0:22:48 > 0:22:52night doesn't sound too bad but what impact could this have on visitors?
0:22:52 > 0:22:58I wouldn't think it would have an impact. When you go abroad, you
0:22:58 > 0:23:06usually pay 1 euro per night. In rope, I think we paid five or six.
0:23:06 > 0:23:14-- Rome. I went to London and the hotel, breakfast, 20 quid, 100 quid
0:23:14 > 0:23:19for a show. An extra pound wouldn't have killed us, to be honest.And it
0:23:19 > 0:23:26will be ring-fenced. It will be put that into tourism facilities?It
0:23:26 > 0:23:31will go back into the public realm. Reinvestment going into the places
0:23:31 > 0:23:35that people come to visit in the first place.Phoebe, an interesting
0:23:35 > 0:23:39point when it comes to where that money will be spent. Tourists to
0:23:39 > 0:23:48take a toll. Somewhere like Bath, they get worn out.But they also
0:23:48 > 0:23:51bring in millions of pounds that they wouldn't get if they didn't
0:23:51 > 0:23:55have the tourists there. The issue with the tourist tax is it really
0:23:55 > 0:24:00just a place to hotels. It is apply to the attractions or peer-to-peer
0:24:00 > 0:24:04accommodation. Something like BNP. Hotels are already under pressure
0:24:04 > 0:24:15with people opting for other ways to stay. -- bnb.How do you deal with
0:24:15 > 0:24:21that, Tim Warren?We are not looking to impose that. We are looking to
0:24:21 > 0:24:24get the power to May be implemented if we want to and then there is a
0:24:24 > 0:24:29consultation. We talk to the hotel owners. An interesting point when
0:24:29 > 0:24:35you talk about Airbnb. The hotel owners are disadvantaged. They would
0:24:35 > 0:24:39be attacks on tourists and not on the hotels. You pay for the hotel
0:24:39 > 0:24:43and to pay a separate bill for your tax. How you implement it, that
0:24:43 > 0:24:48would be more of a concern than the cost, to be honest.And how do you
0:24:48 > 0:24:54distinguish, or do you distinguish between tourism and business?We
0:24:54 > 0:24:59would look at it. £1 and night, as I said, wouldn't kill anybody. It may
0:24:59 > 0:25:04be £1 per night and it might be 1%. We would have to consult over it.
0:25:04 > 0:25:12Phoebe, other cities have done it already. Paris, Dubai, Rome. It is
0:25:12 > 0:25:17not a big idea in that sense that it isn't something we have done before.
0:25:17 > 0:25:24We have seen the rising pound -- the shrinking pound. Obviously, it
0:25:24 > 0:25:27impacts on people that might not be able to go overseas. They are
0:25:27 > 0:25:35already taxed with air duty at Thatcher. If places like York and
0:25:35 > 0:25:42maybe Windsor and Bath, it may push people to other places which could
0:25:42 > 0:25:46see other places benefit.As Tim says, if you have spent the money on
0:25:46 > 0:25:51a flight and a hotel, £1 per night isn't great make a huge difference.
0:25:51 > 0:25:57It is per person. It is £4 per night and that adds up if you are one week
0:25:57 > 0:26:01away, for a family. It depends on who you are talking about. Like I
0:26:01 > 0:26:05said, there are pluses and minuses and it will be interesting to see
0:26:05 > 0:26:10what happens and who has the guts to do it first.There is a bigger
0:26:10 > 0:26:14picture. The wider picture about where we will be in a couple of
0:26:14 > 0:26:19years' time. Impact of Brexit and the weakness of the pound. You will
0:26:19 > 0:26:24have to be wary that introducing some small measure like this could
0:26:24 > 0:26:28have serious impact.We are talking about who will be the first to
0:26:28 > 0:26:32impose it. I believe Birmingham have already been paid given permission
0:26:32 > 0:26:37to do so so they can play for the Commonwealth games.For a limited
0:26:37 > 0:26:44period. Leigh and something in the late district but I'm not sure. --
0:26:44 > 0:26:52and something similar in the Lake District.
0:26:52 > 0:26:57District.It could be nationwide and it could put million 's of pounds
0:26:57 > 0:27:04into local government. At the moment, I think 80% of our budget
0:27:04 > 0:27:09will go to children and adults in social care. It doesn't leave much
0:27:09 > 0:27:14for the place. We need to raise extra money to keep the public realm
0:27:14 > 0:27:19like it is and keep the people coming.It is, as you say, the most
0:27:19 > 0:27:23beautiful city. Thank you very much for talking to us this morning. And
0:27:23 > 0:27:26Phoebe Smith, thank you.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29Coming up later this morning, we'll be talking about whether a baguette,
0:27:29 > 0:27:33or a French stick as you might call it - should be listed
0:27:33 > 0:27:37as cultural treasure?
0:27:37 > 0:27:48It is like a deadly weapon! Is just landed here. It smells really nice.
0:27:48 > 0:27:53I wouldn't start eating it. It's making crumbs everywhere.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57It follows the decision by UNESCO to protect pizza from Naples.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00So what do you think?
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Does the simple baguette need special status?
0:28:02 > 0:28:10And what British national treasure would you protect?
0:28:10 > 0:28:14We have had so many suggestions already. Lots of them are,
0:28:14 > 0:28:22inevitably, food related. We have had scones from Ross, chips and
0:28:22 > 0:28:27gravy. Full Scottish or a full English, Roberts says. Other perhaps
0:28:27 > 0:28:36less tangible things like apologising. Apparently that should
0:28:36 > 0:28:37be a national treasure.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32The Justice Secretary, David Gauke, is considering a possible judicial
0:29:32 > 0:29:35review of the decision to release the serial sex attacker,

0:29:36 > 0:29:38In 2009, the former Black Cab driver was jailed indefinitely,
0:29:38 > 0:29:40to serve a minimum term of eight years.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54The Governor of Hawaii has apologised, and promised to tighten
0:29:54 > 0:29:56procedures after authorities mistakenly issued an alert warning

0:29:57 > 0:30:00An official text message, sent to people's phones in error,
0:30:00 > 0:30:02left people scrambling for shelter.
0:30:02 > 0:30:09A corrected message wasn't sent out until nearly 40 minutes later.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18UKIP has suspended the girlfriend of its party leader,
0:30:18 > 0:30:21Henry Bolton after she reportedly made racist remarks
0:30:21 > 0:30:22about Prince Harry's fiancee, Meghan Markle.
0:30:22 > 0:30:26The Mail on Sunday has published text messages sent by Jo Marney that
0:30:26 > 0:30:27include derogatory comments about ethnic minorities.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30Ms Marney has apologised- and says the messages have been
0:30:30 > 0:30:35taken out of context.
0:30:35 > 0:30:38Key talks aimed at securing the future of the troubled
0:30:38 > 0:30:40engineering company Carillion are continuing today.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42The construction and outsourcing giant owes £900m to Britain's
0:30:42 > 0:30:43five biggest banks.

0:30:46 > 0:30:54are robust should it collapse.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06trashing H&M stores in and around Johannesburg, after the brand used
0:31:06 > 0:31:09a controversial picture of a black child advertising their clothing.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Violence spilt over in several malls as protests organised
0:31:11 > 0:31:13by activists turned ugly.
0:31:13 > 0:31:20H&M apologised for the image, which ran on its website.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23The Hollywood actor, Mark Wahlberg, has given the money he earned
0:31:23 > 0:31:26for reshooting scenes in a film, to a fund that supports people
0:31:26 > 0:31:27who've experienced sexual harassment.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30Wahlberg was paid more than a million for the reshoot,
0:31:30 > 0:31:32while his female co-star Michelle Williams received just
0:31:32 > 0:31:33£60 a day in expenses.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36The scenes had to be filmed again after Kevin Spacey was dropped
0:31:36 > 0:31:44following sexual assault allegations being made.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51And England and Australia are in one-day action.
0:31:51 > 0:31:57Time for the sport. England have a chance to restore some pride and
0:31:57 > 0:32:06reputation after the Ashes.You would like to think so. A different
0:32:15 > 0:32:18kit, different balls, different players. Let's forget the Ashes.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21We're done talking about it. It's the ODIs. These are the ones we
0:32:21 > 0:32:24wanted to win, that is what we are saying.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26After their Ashes humiliation, the one day series gives England
0:32:26 > 0:32:28the chance of some revenge over Australia.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31Just four of the test team are playing in Melbourne this morning.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33England put the Aussies into bat.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35Opener Aaron Finch made a century.
0:32:35 > 0:32:43There are just a few of their 50 overs left in their innings.
0:32:43 > 0:32:45Two games in the Premier League today.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48Leaders, Manchester City, make the short trip down the M62
0:32:48 > 0:32:50to face Liverpool, while before that Bournemouth face Arsenal.
0:32:50 > 0:32:53Harry Kane once again grabbed the headlines yesterday,
0:32:53 > 0:32:54continuing a quite remarkable season.
0:32:54 > 0:33:02Joe Lynskey rounds up the action.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09Spurs are making the most of Wembley Way. Boehner now it is only a
0:33:09 > 0:33:16temporary stay. For Harry Kane, it feels like home.Another double four
0:33:16 > 0:33:25Kane. The record
0:33:25 > 0:33:30Kane. The record scorer for Spurs. Christian Ericsson had a brilliant
0:33:30 > 0:33:35fourth. They will not be here for long, but they are mastering this
0:33:35 > 0:33:39stage. Chelsea and Leicester share raid recent history. Premier League
0:33:39 > 0:33:44champions in the last two seasons. Aspirations have lessened since
0:33:44 > 0:33:49then, but they had a chance to win at the Bridge. They could be fought
0:33:49 > 0:33:57today if they got victory. -- fourth. Any team from ten could go
0:33:57 > 0:34:05down. One wrong move could make all the difference. West Ham got lucky.
0:34:05 > 0:34:14But then some star quality.He has scored four West Ham!It has been a
0:34:14 > 0:34:20while since things have come together for David Moyes. Now he is
0:34:20 > 0:34:25leading a resurgence.They have done so well. Praise goes to them. They
0:34:25 > 0:34:34did so well.A bounce off the bottom is exactly what West from need. They
0:34:34 > 0:34:40took their first step to safety, beating Brighton 2-0. -- Brom. A
0:34:40 > 0:34:48barren season for the baggies. They hope to climb the table as others
0:34:48 > 0:34:54climbed down. Southampton are looking down their shoulder. And
0:34:54 > 0:35:03look at this equaliser. On closer inspection, perhaps not.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05inspection, perhaps not.Stoops to head it and it hits his fist.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08Southampton are left in deep trouble. More matches like this will
0:35:08 > 0:35:13decide who's days up, but those pivotal moments will make all the
0:35:13 > 0:35:22difference. -- who stays up. BBC News.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25There was also a win for Crystal Palace against Burnley yesterday
0:35:25 > 0:35:30while bottom side Swansea drew 1-1 at Newcastle.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33Let's turn attention to Rugby Union now.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35English champions Exeter Chiefs, have boosted their chance
0:35:35 > 0:35:38of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the European Champions Cup
0:35:38 > 0:35:39with a dominant display against Montpellier.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42There were also wins for Ulster, Harlequins and Northampton,
0:35:42 > 0:35:44while European champions Saracens drew 15-15 with Ospreys.
0:35:44 > 0:35:51Adam Wild reports.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54Sandy Park is where you find the Chiefs. Top of the league exit
0:35:54 > 0:36:01against Montpellier. A challenge with plenty at stake. A loss would
0:36:01 > 0:36:06end their dream.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14end their dream. Tense, tight, not much space. But with Ollie on the
0:36:14 > 0:36:18wing, you don't always need it. This secured the bonus point which may
0:36:18 > 0:36:30yet prove crucial in the fight for second in the group.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33second in the group. Ulster, a battle to lead 4-1. That's where
0:36:33 > 0:36:35they have been. The French side seemingly unbeatable, not
0:36:35 > 0:36:43breachable. They go top with just one game to go. That
0:36:46 > 0:36:49one game to go. That is against Wasps, who had hopes of their own
0:36:49 > 0:36:52going into a 20-point lead against Harlequins. Plenty of rivalry
0:36:52 > 0:36:55remains. The margin, gradually reduced, as well as the numbers on
0:36:55 > 0:37:01the field. A red card. With the final breath of the game, Harlequins
0:37:01 > 0:37:11let out a roar. It was an extraordinary win.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14extraordinary win. The Wasps need something incredible if they are to
0:37:14 > 0:37:14progress.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17Europe have beaten Asia to retain the Eurasia Cup.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20They had been down by a point going into today's singles but won
0:37:20 > 0:37:22eight out of 12 matches in Kuala Lumpur.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25England's Tommy Fleetwood was one of the first to get
0:37:25 > 0:37:27on the scoreboard for the Europeans.
0:37:27 > 0:37:33It finished 14-10 to Europe.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37Laura Muir anchored Great Britain to victory in the Great Edinburgh Cross
0:37:37 > 0:37:39Country mixed team relay yesterday. The former European cross-country
0:37:39 > 0:37:43champion was in fine form yesterday. She took over from Adam Clarke for
0:37:43 > 0:37:46the final lap behind Europe and Belgium, but made up the ground to
0:37:46 > 0:37:50win by seven seconds. She won't be appearing on the track for this
0:37:50 > 0:37:52year's Commonwealth Games because she's finishing her veterinary
0:37:52 > 0:37:52exams.
0:37:52 > 0:37:59The vet school has been so supportive. So has my boyfriend. We
0:37:59 > 0:38:06planned it is in advance. With everything planned for years, it is
0:38:06 > 0:38:09a matter of getting it all done and hopefully getting a medal. That
0:38:09 > 0:38:14would be great. Hopefully I am in the Europeans as well.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Great Britain bobsleighers, Meesha McNeil and Meeka Moore,
0:38:16 > 0:38:18have returned from their crash in Germany last week,
0:38:18 > 0:38:21finishing seventh at the St Moritz World Cup in Switzerland.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24The British duo were only able to compete this season after raising
0:38:24 > 0:38:27more than £30,000 through crowdfunding, following an overspend
0:38:27 > 0:38:28by their governing body.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30In the men's two-man event, Bradley Hall and Joel Fearon
0:38:30 > 0:38:36finished 18th.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39Great Britain's Izzy Atkin won bronze at the Ski Slopestyle World
0:38:39 > 0:38:40Cup in Aspen.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42The 19-year-old put down an impressive first run to secure
0:38:42 > 0:38:45the second World Cup podium of her career.
0:38:45 > 0:38:49In the men's event, James Wood finished sixth.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52Lisa Ashton has won her fourth BDO World title after beating
0:38:52 > 0:38:53Anastasia Dob-rom-islova 3-1 at Lakeside.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56Ashton was considered the underdog before the final but the defending
0:38:56 > 0:38:59champion won eight legs in a row, finishing with a 62 checkout
0:38:59 > 0:39:00to seal victory.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03Ashton is now second on the list of titles won,
0:39:03 > 0:39:11behind the 10-time champion, Trina Gulliver.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17On the men's side of things, the final will be played
0:39:17 > 0:39:19between defending champion, Glen Durrant and Mark McGeeney.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21McGeeney came through his semi-final against Germany's Michael
0:39:21 > 0:39:23Unterbukner, six sets to four.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26The Englishman, who is the BDO world number one, came back from 3-2 down,
0:39:26 > 0:39:34to set up a chance to win his first World title.
0:39:37 > 0:39:41It was interesting, you showed a little clip of the game yesterday,
0:39:41 > 0:39:48the rugby match with James going in on his
0:40:01 > 0:40:03on his shoulder onto Jamie. Brutal. But talking about particular British
0:40:03 > 0:40:06habits, intangible cultural things with cultural status, many talking
0:40:06 > 0:40:10about the apology. He came out with an apology on Twitter last night,
0:40:10 > 0:40:13saying he is not good at minding his strength. Subtlety is not his forte,
0:40:13 > 0:40:22he said. They both apologised. From the most brutal of rugby players,
0:40:22 > 0:40:28quite astonishing.I could not imagine that in Rugby League,
0:40:28 > 0:40:43though.Thank you. Apparently, all you need is some
0:40:44 > 0:40:47you need is some paint and a stone to take part in a new craze bringing
0:40:47 > 0:40:50art and social media together. Thousands of people are painting
0:40:50 > 0:40:53pebbled and hiding them for others to find, sharing success on line. It
0:40:53 > 0:40:59is thought it was imported from America last summer.You had a go.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02Fiona Lamdin has been in Worcestershire Woods finding out
0:41:02 > 0:41:05more and getting creative herself.
0:41:05 > 0:41:13Look at my one!It is a simple concept, paint a pebbled...I
0:41:13 > 0:41:20painted a snake and like a multicoloured pattern with some
0:41:20 > 0:41:28stars.Hide it in a public space.We went on holiday. It is exciting to
0:41:28 > 0:41:36find one.Wait to see who finds it. When someone else finds it, how does
0:41:36 > 0:41:40that make you feel?Happy and excited.And then share its journey
0:41:40 > 0:41:47on line.Go and find a special one at the hospital. It was beautifully
0:41:47 > 0:41:53painted it said you are loved on it. It gave a really positive message
0:41:53 > 0:41:58and cheered me up to know end.Not known for my artistic talents, I
0:41:58 > 0:42:05thought I should have a go.
0:42:05 > 0:42:11thought I should have a go.I might hide one if I find a hole in a tree
0:42:11 > 0:42:16and hide it in there.Has it made you look up to the sky?It has now.
0:42:16 > 0:42:22A few months ago, Leanne set up this group for a few friends, but already
0:42:22 > 0:42:28there is nearly 1000 members. Somebody contacted me to say they
0:42:28 > 0:42:37lost a friend and they were down. But she found a rock with a smile
0:42:37 > 0:42:42and it made you feel better so she treasured it.There are three really
0:42:42 > 0:42:47simple rules to follow. Please do not take the pebbles from the beach.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50When you are painting them, use non-toxic and server does not hurt
0:42:50 > 0:42:54the wildlife, and hide them responsibly so it does not cause
0:42:54 > 0:42:59accidents.I love this one the best. Why is that?It has sparkles in
0:42:59 > 0:43:06different colours.I think this one made me happy because there is a
0:43:06 > 0:43:14picture of a son. Here is my effort. --A sun. We will see who finds it.
0:43:14 > 0:43:22Across the UK, thousands are part of this new craze.Pebbles!BBC News.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25We've got our own set of paints here and will be decorating them.
0:43:25 > 0:43:28We'd love to see yours, you can send us your pictures
0:43:28 > 0:43:29to BBCBreakfast@bbc.co.uk
0:43:29 > 0:43:33They informed me last night we would do this item so I decided to do my
0:43:33 > 0:43:39homework early. I only had black paint at home. I have got this thing
0:43:39 > 0:43:47about hares. That is what it is. I will tell you now before you think
0:43:47 > 0:43:55what on Earth is that?That looks sinister.What? Sinister? It is a
0:43:55 > 0:44:09beautiful hare. I am coveting crumbs from earlier so I will have a go in
0:44:09 > 0:44:16a second. -- covered in.You can send them to our e-mail while
0:44:16 > 0:44:20Picasso as a go.
0:44:20 > 0:44:23You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.
0:44:23 > 0:44:26The main stories this morning:
0:44:26 > 0:44:31The government is considering a possible legal challenge on the
0:44:31 > 0:44:33decision to release the sex attacker John Worboys.
0:44:33 > 0:44:36The Governor of Hawaii has apologised after an alert
0:44:36 > 0:44:38was mistakenly issued - warning of an imminent missile
0:44:38 > 0:44:43attack.
0:44:43 > 0:44:47I think we slightly forgot we had the news to do.
0:44:47 > 0:44:51Here's Sarah with a look at this morning's weather.
0:44:51 > 0:44:54It's actually not a bad day for going out
0:44:54 > 0:44:55It's actually not a bad day for going out and searching for pebbles,
0:44:55 > 0:45:02is it?It is a pretty decent steak and Peta what we have seen. It has
0:45:02 > 0:45:11been cloudy for many days. -- at decent day than what we have seen.
0:45:11 > 0:45:17The cloud will tend to thin and break so for many of us, some
0:45:17 > 0:45:21sunshine before the rain and wind arrived in the north-west. For the
0:45:21 > 0:45:28here and now, reasonably mild. Cloudy with a few misty patches. But
0:45:28 > 0:45:32it is sunshine for parts of northern England, North Wales, down to what
0:45:32 > 0:45:37is the West Country, patchy cloud elsewhere. The car cloud towards the
0:45:37 > 0:45:45north-west and that is ahead of this front working its way in. --
0:45:45 > 0:45:51flicker. It is looking drive for the Premier League matches today.
0:45:51 > 0:45:55Sunshine in Bournemouth. -- thicker. Slightly cloudier in Liverpool. As
0:45:55 > 0:46:01removed through the seasoning, really strong winds, gusts of 70 mph
0:46:01 > 0:46:06potentially across the north-west of Scotland. 60 mph as they rattled
0:46:06 > 0:46:11southwards. With heavy rain as well. Through tonight, things will turn
0:46:11 > 0:46:15wet, windy and much more unsettled than what we have seen. The morning
0:46:15 > 0:46:18rush-hour could have some disruption with some low-lying surface water
0:46:18 > 0:46:23and strong winds. What we will notice over the next few days is
0:46:23 > 0:46:27much colder conditions moving from the north-west and that sets up --
0:46:27 > 0:46:32that stays with us through Monday to Wednesday. Heavy rain and strong
0:46:32 > 0:46:36winds slowly clearing through the day tomorrow and a return to
0:46:36 > 0:46:44something much funnier but colder with the shower was rattling in. --
0:46:44 > 0:46:49sunnier. Sleet and snow across the hills in Scotland with some rain but
0:46:49 > 0:46:55also some hail. A similar day on Tuesday with not as many showers but
0:46:55 > 0:47:00they will have wintry feel. In the north, three or four degrees. In the
0:47:00 > 0:47:06south, we could see seven or eight still windy. The potential for
0:47:06 > 0:47:10disruption on Wednesday. A low pressure system moves in and we
0:47:10 > 0:47:14don't know how far north it will get but we could see significant snow on
0:47:14 > 0:47:19that system as it tracks its way across the country. It will bring
0:47:19 > 0:47:23heavy rain and potentially heavy snow on the northern edge with
0:47:23 > 0:47:26strong winds. Watch out for disruption through the middle part
0:47:26 > 0:47:33of the week with strong winds, snow and a change of weather type at all
0:47:33 > 0:47:37today, it is mostly dry and we could see the odd glimpse of sunshine.
0:47:37 > 0:47:41Please enjoy the blue skies if you are lucky enough to see them.We
0:47:41 > 0:47:42will do
0:47:42 > 0:47:45are lucky enough to see them.We will do our best to find them.
0:47:45 > 0:47:51Ben is distract the event is doing some painting. We will be back with
0:47:51 > 0:47:52the headlines at seven o'clock.
0:47:52 > 0:47:55But first it's time for Click with Spencer Kelly, see you soon.
0:48:20 > 0:48:21I've had enough.
0:48:21 > 0:48:25Enough of old tech.
0:48:25 > 0:48:28It's all going obsolete, or so it seems.
0:48:28 > 0:48:30Even the days of desktop computers are numbered.
0:48:30 > 0:48:37Right.
0:48:37 > 0:48:45Let's see what they've got for us this year.
0:48:47 > 0:48:50The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas is the place
0:48:50 > 0:48:50to find out.
0:48:50 > 0:48:53It's where the new products and concepts are launched for 2018
0:48:53 > 0:48:56and some of them might just change the world.
0:48:56 > 0:49:00One of the highlights of CES for me is always finding out how
0:49:00 > 0:49:01bendy LG is.
0:49:01 > 0:49:04Previously, they have been slightly bendy and then quite bendy.
0:49:04 > 0:49:06This year, I think they have nailed it.
0:49:06 > 0:49:09It's a 65-inch rollup display and the image quality
0:49:09 > 0:49:13is really very good.
0:49:13 > 0:49:16And it does roll completely up into an admittedly
0:49:16 > 0:49:21fairly chunky box.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23It's an OLED display, the only display tech that can
0:49:23 > 0:49:25be fully flexible.
0:49:25 > 0:49:29The circuitry is built on a segmented back so it is a bit
0:49:29 > 0:49:32like a retractable garage door.
0:49:32 > 0:49:35You can actually choose how far the screen rolls out
0:49:35 > 0:49:38as well as a widescreen TV, it can be used as a thin
0:49:38 > 0:49:41notification bar, a wider format 21x9 cinema screen and of course
0:49:41 > 0:49:42nothing at all.
0:49:42 > 0:49:46The argument is that you can make use of the space behind it
0:49:46 > 0:49:47when you're not using it.
0:49:47 > 0:49:50And in South Korea, a lot of people live in high-rise blocks.
0:49:50 > 0:49:54Can you imagine lugging a 65" TV up the stairs or into a lift?
0:49:54 > 0:49:57Much easier if you can roll it down into a handy tube.
0:49:57 > 0:50:05Elsewhere, plenty of other things to see and play with here at CES.
0:50:05 > 0:50:07Here is a telephone from Chinese company Vivo that does not
0:50:07 > 0:50:10have a fingerprint scanner on the back, because it has one
0:50:10 > 0:50:17built into the screen.
0:50:17 > 0:50:22The OLED display shines light on to your thumb and an optical
0:50:22 > 0:50:23scanner buried underneath registers what it sees.
0:50:23 > 0:50:31Here is the Link Flow Fit 360.
0:50:31 > 0:50:34A necklace with three cameras that together live-stitch to make
0:50:34 > 0:50:39a 360 video.
0:50:39 > 0:50:42You can record a true first person view so others can feel
0:50:42 > 0:50:50like they were truly there too.
0:50:52 > 0:50:55Now, it's important to catch the eye at shows like these
0:50:55 > 0:51:01which is hopefully what this thing is doing.
0:51:01 > 0:51:03This is the Hypervision display by Kino-mo and is capable
0:51:03 > 0:51:06of projecting life-size images high above the show floor.
0:51:06 > 0:51:09All right, sexy, that's enough from you.
0:51:09 > 0:51:14Here is the science bit.
0:51:14 > 0:51:17We have 24 rapidly spinning LED strips.
0:51:17 > 0:51:20They are flashing different colours as they go around.
0:51:20 > 0:51:23It gives you the illusion of a persistent image.
0:51:23 > 0:51:27In the flesh, I have to say, it does really look rather good.
0:51:27 > 0:51:28Don't build up your part.
0:51:28 > 0:51:31Oh, good grief.
0:51:31 > 0:51:35Enough flimsy flimflam from me.
0:51:35 > 0:51:38Let's get Lara Lewington now with some of the big announcements
0:51:38 > 0:51:39from this year's show.
0:51:39 > 0:51:43And what a week it has been with news from tech's biggest players.
0:51:43 > 0:51:46Including the likes of Intel saying it will release software fixes
0:51:46 > 0:51:50to repair security issues surrounding its chips.
0:51:50 > 0:51:56Good morning, Dave.
0:51:56 > 0:51:59We've had press events that have gone wrong with disobedient
0:51:59 > 0:52:00robots from LG.
0:52:00 > 0:52:03Chloe is not going to talk to me, she doesn't like me evidently.
0:52:03 > 0:52:06And Sony's robot dog wasn't that responsive either.
0:52:06 > 0:52:09Aibo is an autonomous robot and will quickly become a member
0:52:09 > 0:52:09of your family.
0:52:09 > 0:52:11Right?
0:52:11 > 0:52:14He ignored me.
0:52:14 > 0:52:17Meanwhile, a lack of female keynote speakers has caused
0:52:17 > 0:52:19controversy amongst attendees.
0:52:19 > 0:52:25A situation which has led to raised eyebrows,
0:52:25 > 0:52:28compounded by the inclusion of robotic pole dancers at a strip
0:52:28 > 0:52:29club near the event.
0:52:29 > 0:52:32And on the show floor, as usual, TVs were everywhere but this one
0:52:32 > 0:52:34really stood out.
0:52:34 > 0:52:37Samsung Wall is 146 inches wide and can be made even larger
0:52:37 > 0:52:38by adding modules.
0:52:38 > 0:52:40And finally, Toyota has unveiled its new autonomous
0:52:40 > 0:52:42e-Pallete vehicle, to be used for ridesharing,
0:52:42 > 0:52:44deliveries or even a moving storefront which comes
0:52:44 > 0:52:47directly to you.
0:52:52 > 0:52:54That was Lara.
0:52:54 > 0:53:00Now one of the big things at the moment in wireless charging.
0:53:00 > 0:53:03That normally means putting your phone on a pad but it is also
0:53:03 > 0:53:08is possible to send power through the air.
0:53:08 > 0:53:11One of the problems with wireless power is that that power is sent
0:53:11 > 0:53:14in every direction at the same time so wherever your device is,
0:53:14 > 0:53:17it only receives a tiny fraction of that power.
0:53:17 > 0:53:20Well, here is a system that gets around that by sending focused beams
0:53:20 > 0:53:25of power to one particular point.
0:53:25 > 0:53:28The power transmitter can be built into ceiling tiles,
0:53:28 > 0:53:30walls, tables or parts of the furniture.
0:53:30 > 0:53:33All it needs to know is which direction to point
0:53:33 > 0:53:40the power in.
0:53:40 > 0:53:41Here is the science bit.
0:53:41 > 0:53:44To work that out, the device needing the power sends out low-power
0:53:44 > 0:53:47signals in all directions, most of which are blocked
0:53:47 > 0:53:51by nearby objects.
0:53:51 > 0:53:59But the signals that do bounce around come and reach
0:54:02 > 0:54:04the transmitter come in at particular angles.
0:54:04 > 0:54:06By sending the power back at exactly the same angles,
0:54:06 > 0:54:08that power bounces about and eventually gets back
0:54:08 > 0:54:09to the device.
0:54:09 > 0:54:13The makers told us they can achieve 2 watts of power from a distance
0:54:13 > 0:54:16of one metre which is impressively about half the power
0:54:16 > 0:54:17of the smartphone charger.
0:54:17 > 0:54:19I'm using this light to detect the power beams
0:54:19 > 0:54:21between the transmitter and the blackbox transceiver.
0:54:21 > 0:54:24Think about your home where you have smoke detectors.
0:54:24 > 0:54:27It starts beeping at night when it runs out of battery.
0:54:27 > 0:54:29You can charge it remotely, you never have to charge
0:54:29 > 0:54:30the battery again.
0:54:30 > 0:54:37But with high power beams lancing around your home,
0:54:37 > 0:54:39you have to wonder if it is safe.
0:54:39 > 0:54:41This technology is entirely safe.
0:54:41 > 0:54:44We look to get FCC approval for safety, that certifies
0:54:44 > 0:54:45the technology as safe.
0:54:45 > 0:54:47If you have accepted wi-fi into your home,
0:54:47 > 0:54:49accepting this technology would be the same.
0:54:49 > 0:54:52In the future, the power receivers could be made into any shape
0:54:52 > 0:54:56including that of a AA battery and that means ordinary devices
0:54:56 > 0:55:04could be converted to wireless power without any modification at all.
0:55:09 > 0:55:14For a long time, bricks and mortar shops have been trying to keep up
0:55:14 > 0:55:16with online retailers who have the added benefits
0:55:16 > 0:55:19of keeping track with customer habits as well as providing very
0:55:19 > 0:55:23easy ways of paying.
0:55:23 > 0:55:30Here is one way that we could see some of those features brought
0:55:30 > 0:55:34into the real world, by retrofitting existing stores.
0:55:34 > 0:55:42Aipoly uses off-the-shelf cameras, one up here to track customers
0:55:42 > 0:55:49and one to take a look at the products and the customers
0:55:49 > 0:55:53interactions with them but the real work is happening here in the AI
0:55:53 > 0:55:58algorithms were it is recognising all the products off-the-shelf
0:55:58 > 0:56:00and their customers interactions with them.
0:56:00 > 0:56:04But the AI is using the main camera here to keep track of customers.
0:56:04 > 0:56:07It can recognise faces, identify clothes and follow their movements.
0:56:07 > 0:56:09Through the combination of the customers being recognised,
0:56:09 > 0:56:13and the products they pick up being identified,
0:56:13 > 0:56:16when they get to the checkout, they don't even need
0:56:16 > 0:56:17to scan the items.
0:56:17 > 0:56:18They just need to pay.
0:56:18 > 0:56:21And if they agree to be remembered for next time,
0:56:21 > 0:56:25then all they need to do is go and pick up their products
0:56:25 > 0:56:26and take them away.
0:56:26 > 0:56:27I'm having my nails done.
0:56:27 > 0:56:29This is the O2 Nails printer.
0:56:29 > 0:56:32Choose any image and they will print it onto your nail.
0:56:32 > 0:56:34Of course I chose a picture of myself.
0:56:34 > 0:56:40OK, Richard Taylor and Nick Kwek, beat that!
0:56:40 > 0:56:43Refreshing!
0:56:43 > 0:56:49This device is actually creating a vacuum in my mouth.
0:56:49 > 0:56:52It's sucking at my gums and at the same time circulating
0:56:52 > 0:56:54a flow of water around my teeth.
0:56:54 > 0:56:57It's intended for users with reduced mobility or people who have
0:56:57 > 0:56:58difficulty brushing their teeth.
0:56:58 > 0:57:00It replaces the need to brush and floss too.
0:57:00 > 0:57:03The guys are working on integrating sensors into future devices so that
0:57:03 > 0:57:06oral hygienists or dentists will be able to diagnose and treat
0:57:06 > 0:57:14for gum disease.
0:57:14 > 0:57:16And it's quite tickly too.
0:57:16 > 0:57:20CES can really take it out of you and I for one am already
0:57:20 > 0:57:27pretty sleep deprived.
0:57:31 > 0:57:36So what I have in front of me here is a device that's packed
0:57:36 > 0:57:38with all sorts of technology and the claim is it will provide
0:57:38 > 0:57:40within 20 minutes the equivalent of 2-5 hours sleep.
0:57:40 > 0:57:44There will be some electrodes that are put behind my ears here,
0:57:44 > 0:57:46effectively through this device, that are transmitting signals up
0:57:46 > 0:57:47to my brain.
0:57:47 > 0:57:51So I'm going to try this on and I'll see you in 20 minutes.
0:57:51 > 0:57:53I'll tell you what, Richard's got the right idea.
0:57:53 > 0:58:01Walking around here, I'm absolutely exhausted.
0:58:02 > 0:58:05I'm definitely feeling more relaxed than I was,
0:58:05 > 0:58:07like, 26 minutes ago.
0:58:07 > 0:58:11Of course I don't know how relaxed I would have felt with just a 26

1:00:32 > 1:00:34The announcement that former black cab driver,
1:00:34 > 1:00:37John Worboys, would be released caused outrage among many victims.
1:00:37 > 1:00:40The Parole Board says it's confident correct procedures were followed.
1:00:53 > 1:00:54Good morning.
1:00:54 > 1:00:56It's Sunday the 13th of January.
1:00:56 > 1:00:57Also this morning.
1:00:57 > 1:00:57Panic in paradise.

1:01:26 > 1:01:34England will begin their run chase shortly.
1:01:34 > 1:01:34Good morning.
1:01:34 > 1:01:37Another cloudy day today.
1:01:37 > 1:01:41Brightness breaking through later on. This evening, things turn wet
1:01:41 > 1:01:45and windy.
1:01:45 > 1:01:48More details and 15 minutes. Thank you. We will see you later.
1:01:48 > 1:01:49First, our main story.
1:01:49 > 1:01:52The Justice Secretary, David Gauke, is considering a possible judicial
1:01:52 > 1:01:55review of the decision to release the serial sex attacker,
1:01:55 > 1:01:55John Worboys.
1:01:55 > 1:01:58The former black cab driver was jailed indefinitely in 2009
1:01:58 > 1:02:01with a minimum term of eight years, for drugging and sexually
1:02:01 > 1:02:02assaulting twelve women.
1:02:02 > 1:02:05Earlier this month a decision by the parole board to release him
1:02:05 > 1:02:10was fiercely criticised.
1:02:10 > 1:02:12Our political correspondent, Leila Nathoo, joins us now.
1:02:12 > 1:02:19Leila, how significant is this?
1:02:19 > 1:02:22This will be welcomed by many campaigners in behalf of victims.
1:02:22 > 1:02:27What does the Justice Secretary want to achieve?It will be welcomed by
1:02:27 > 1:02:32victims. The fact they have decided to look into the possibility of a
1:02:32 > 1:02:38judicial review to see if the initial decision was lawful. Many
1:02:38 > 1:02:42victims said they were not involved at all, not consulted in the
1:02:42 > 1:02:47original decision by the parole board. Some victims have found out
1:02:47 > 1:02:52from the media that he was to be released. Many had anxiety that they
1:02:52 > 1:02:59knew where they lived. David is considering the possibility, asking
1:02:59 > 1:03:03for advice on whether a judicial review might have the possibility of
1:03:03 > 1:03:07succeeding. It is understood he only wants to move forward with a
1:03:07 > 1:03:12reasonable chance of success. This is a highly unusual move for the
1:03:12 > 1:03:16Justice Secretary to intervene in a decision of the strictly independent
1:03:16 > 1:03:22parole board. Speaks to the gravity of this case, there has already been
1:03:22 > 1:03:26a review promised by the government on how the parole board makes its
1:03:26 > 1:03:30decisions, whether the process should be more transparent. In any
1:03:30 > 1:03:35event, the victims groups will have a chance to make representation to
1:03:35 > 1:03:40the parole board if he is released so they can be consulted on the
1:03:40 > 1:03:44terms of this licence.It will be closely followed. Thank you very
1:03:44 > 1:03:48much. Other news now.
1:03:48 > 1:03:50The Governor of Hawaii has apologised, and promised to tighten
1:03:50 > 1:03:52procedures, after authorities mistakenly issued an alert,
1:03:52 > 1:03:54warning of an imminent ballistic missile attack.
1:03:54 > 1:03:57An official text message, sent to people's phones in error,
1:03:57 > 1:03:58left people scrambling for shelter.
1:03:58 > 1:04:01A corrected message wasn't sent out until nearly 40 minutes later.
1:04:01 > 1:04:08Bill Hayton reports.
1:04:08 > 1:04:11For 30 minutes on Saturday, the people of Hawaii ran
1:04:11 > 1:04:16for the emergency shelters.
1:04:16 > 1:04:23An official text warned them to prepare for the worst.
1:04:27 > 1:04:30We all just huddled together and, yeah, thought "If this is the end,
1:04:30 > 1:04:33at least we are in a beautiful place doing
1:04:33 > 1:04:34something we love."
1:04:34 > 1:04:36Was a North Korean nuclear missile about to hit
1:04:36 > 1:04:36Honolulu?
1:04:36 > 1:04:37Actually, no.
1:04:37 > 1:04:40The whole thing was simply a mistake.
1:04:40 > 1:04:42The wrong button was pushed on this test.
1:04:42 > 1:04:50It went to an actual event versus a test.
1:04:53 > 1:05:01At that point in time, we started the reversal process.
1:05:04 > 1:05:08There is fear in Hawaii about how the click of a single button
1:05:08 > 1:05:10could be responsible for so much panic.
1:05:10 > 1:05:12The anger is directed towards the state government.
1:05:12 > 1:05:14What happened today was totally unacceptable.
1:05:14 > 1:05:16Many in our community were deeply affected by this,
1:05:16 > 1:05:19and I am sorry for that pain and confusion anyone may
1:05:19 > 1:05:20have experienced.
1:05:20 > 1:05:22At least everyone now knows the warning system works,
1:05:22 > 1:05:24but that's small comfort for the millions who thought
1:05:24 > 1:05:32their world was about to end on Saturday.
1:05:32 > 1:05:33Bill Hayton, BBC News.
1:05:33 > 1:05:36UKIP has suspended the girlfriend of its party leader,
1:05:36 > 1:05:38Henry Bolton after she reportedly made offensive remarks
1:05:38 > 1:05:40about Prince Harry's fiancee, Meghan Markle.
1:05:40 > 1:05:43The Mail on Sunday has published text messages sent by Jo Marney that
1:05:43 > 1:05:45include derogatory comments about ethnic minorities.
1:05:45 > 1:05:53Dan Johnson reports.
1:06:01 > 1:06:02Wow, you're all still here!
1:06:02 > 1:06:04He has only been leader since last September,
1:06:04 > 1:06:08and it emerged Henry Bolton left his wife for a former glamour
1:06:08 > 1:06:11model 30 years younger.
1:06:11 > 1:06:14Now, this morning, the Mail on Sunday has published text
1:06:14 > 1:06:16messages sent by her.
1:06:16 > 1:06:21In it, she wrote Meghan Markle had a tiny brain
1:06:21 > 1:06:26and she would taint the royal family and that black people were ugly.
1:06:26 > 1:06:29When a reply was sent suggesting the comments may be racist,
1:06:29 > 1:06:31she said so what?
1:06:31 > 1:06:34She did not want other races invading her culture.
1:06:34 > 1:06:41In a statement, she said this.
1:06:53 > 1:06:54She then said this.
1:06:54 > 1:06:56UKIP confirmed he has been suspended.
1:06:56 > 1:06:59The party leader said last night he did not want to comment.
1:06:59 > 1:07:00Dan Johnson, BBC News.
1:07:00 > 1:07:03Talks aimed at securing the future of the troubled engineering company
1:07:03 > 1:07:04Carillion resume later.
1:07:04 > 1:07:06The firm builds roads, schools and hospitals and parts
1:07:06 > 1:07:10of the high speed rail line, HS2, but has soaring debts and large hole
1:07:10 > 1:07:11in its pension fund.
1:07:11 > 1:07:13The Government says it's working on contingency plans
1:07:13 > 1:07:14should it collapse.
1:07:14 > 1:07:22Our business correspondent, Joe Lynam, reports.
1:07:26 > 1:07:28Carillion is probably the biggest British company you've
1:07:28 > 1:07:29never heard of.
1:07:29 > 1:07:35It is an engineering, construction, and outsourcing giant
1:07:35 > 1:07:42which maintains dozens of schools, and prisons, and MoD facilities.
1:07:42 > 1:07:46It is also building parts of HS2 and the Royal Liverpool Hospital
1:07:46 > 1:07:47thanks to PFI contracts.
1:07:47 > 1:07:49But it also owes the bank more than £1 million,
1:07:49 > 1:07:53and that is why there are crucial talks today about what might happen
1:07:53 > 1:08:01if Carillion is placed into administration.
1:08:03 > 1:08:06So, what are the options if, and that is a big if,
1:08:06 > 1:08:08Carillion cannot find a solution with the banks?
1:08:08 > 1:08:11The government could deal out the company and essentially
1:08:11 > 1:08:13nationalise it with the moral hazard attached to that.
1:08:13 > 1:08:16It could take back all of the contracts with Carillion
1:08:16 > 1:08:18and reassign them to help their companies.
1:08:18 > 1:08:20Or it could put them in administration.
1:08:20 > 1:08:22Consultants would then end up on profitable parts.
1:08:22 > 1:08:23The potential could be devastating.
1:08:23 > 1:08:30Many of them are owed millions by Carillion,
1:08:30 > 1:08:33and if they do not get those monies, well, their business
1:08:33 > 1:08:34could be at risk.
1:08:34 > 1:08:35The other thing
1:08:35 > 1:08:37is thousands of jobs will potentially be lost
1:08:37 > 1:08:38as a result.
1:08:38 > 1:08:42Today is a vital day for the 20,000 employees in Britain of Carillion
1:08:42 > 1:08:43and thousands more completely dependent on it.
1:08:43 > 1:08:46The government says it has robust contingency plans in place
1:08:46 > 1:08:47if the business collapses.
1:08:47 > 1:08:51But even if it survives intact, the issue of PFI contracts may be
1:08:51 > 1:08:52reopened after this episode.
1:08:52 > 1:08:53Joe Lynam, BBC News.
1:08:53 > 1:08:56South African police have used rubber bullets to disperse a mob
1:08:56 > 1:08:59trashing H&M stores in and around Johannesburg, after the brand used
1:08:59 > 1:09:01a controversial picture of a black child.
1:09:01 > 1:09:03Violence spilt over in several malls as protests organised
1:09:03 > 1:09:05by activists turned ugly.
1:09:05 > 1:09:12H&M apologised for the image, which ran on its website.
1:09:16 > 1:09:19The Hollywood actor, Mark Wahlberg, has given the money he got
1:09:19 > 1:09:22for reshooting scenes in a film, to a fund which supports people
1:09:22 > 1:09:23who've experienced sexual harassment.
1:09:23 > 1:09:26It comes after he was paid more than a million,
1:09:26 > 1:09:28while his female co-star Michelle Williams received sixty
1:09:28 > 1:09:30pounds a day in expenses for the work.
1:09:30 > 1:09:33The scenes had to be filmed again after Kevin Spacey was dropped
1:09:33 > 1:09:36in the wake of sexual assault and harassment
1:09:36 > 1:09:43allegations against him.
1:09:46 > 1:09:49Tenants could be given greater powers to tackle rogue landlords
1:09:49 > 1:09:51after the Government agreed to back a private members' bill.
1:09:51 > 1:09:55It comes as figures show one in ten tenants has had a gas leak,
1:09:55 > 1:09:58a fire or safety concern in their home over the last year.
1:09:58 > 1:10:00Adrian Goldberg from 5Live investigates has the story,
1:10:00 > 1:10:05tell us more.
1:10:05 > 1:10:10Good morning.This is potentially a very serious issue for a
1:10:10 > 1:10:16considerable number of tenants. Already, yes. We are looking at the
1:10:16 > 1:10:20English housing survey, suggesting as many as 1 million properties
1:10:20 > 1:10:24housing 3 million people in the rental sector have what are called
1:10:24 > 1:10:30Category 1 hazards. Those are hazard links to the loss of life, those
1:10:30 > 1:10:34that could seriously affect your health. No question, many properties
1:10:34 > 1:10:43in the banking sector are in a poor condition. -- renting. Some have
1:10:43 > 1:10:46been campaigning for many years to bring new legislation that would
1:10:46 > 1:10:51ring tenants the right to take landlords to court if their homes
1:10:51 > 1:10:59are not fit for human habitation. -- bring. Twice, the government has
1:10:59 > 1:11:03rejected it, saying it would add red tape and unnecessary cost to
1:11:03 > 1:11:09landlords. In the last 24 hours, the government has performed a U-turn,
1:11:09 > 1:11:11saying they will back the legislation giving greater powers to
1:11:11 > 1:11:16tenants to take landlords to court if where they live is not fit for
1:11:16 > 1:11:22human habitation.Many tenants feel helpless. What kind of powers are we
1:11:22 > 1:11:25talking about?At the moment, enforcement is left to local
1:11:25 > 1:11:32authorities. Research suggests in many cases they have a duty to take
1:11:32 > 1:11:38action against these so-called Category 1 hazard. The only do take
1:11:38 > 1:11:47formal legal action so far in about one in 100 cases. In many cases, the
1:11:47 > 1:11:51local authority powers are simply not being used. So, this changing
1:11:51 > 1:11:56legislation would bring the power to change that to tenants themselves.
1:11:56 > 1:12:02After Grenfell Tower, that was not just about tenants in that property,
1:12:02 > 1:12:08but nonetheless, it highlights the fact that minor, if you like, safety
1:12:08 > 1:12:12concerns can have devastating consequences if not taken seriously.
1:12:12 > 1:12:17It is one thing for a government to promise legislation. In the last
1:12:17 > 1:12:26week I have seen properties in the south of England where you have fire
1:12:26 > 1:12:29doors, a gap that wide through which a fire tank really go through and
1:12:29 > 1:12:34extend. It is one thing to bring legislation and another to deliver
1:12:34 > 1:12:40on the ground.Credit to you for investigating and bringing this to
1:12:40 > 1:12:44our attention. I am sure it is no coincidence the government has
1:12:44 > 1:12:47changed its mind. Thank you very much.
1:12:47 > 1:12:51And you can hear more on this story on 5Live Investigates on BBC Radio
1:12:51 > 1:12:525Live at 11 today.
1:12:52 > 1:12:52Absolutely.
1:12:52 > 1:12:53Tune in for that.
1:12:53 > 1:12:56Back to Hawaii now, where a missile alert caused widespread panic
1:12:56 > 1:12:58after it warned of an imminent attack.
1:12:58 > 1:13:03It turned out to be a mistake.
1:13:03 > 1:13:05Ryan Ozawa is a journalist in Honolulu,
1:13:05 > 1:13:07where he joins us from now.
1:13:07 > 1:13:12Good morning. For people who have not heard the story, tell us what
1:13:12 > 1:13:22happened.
1:13:28 > 1:13:32happened.It was 8:08 in the morning. The standard state-wide
1:13:32 > 1:13:35emergency system went off on phones and radio waves that a missile was
1:13:35 > 1:13:39incoming. It was very harrowing.We are looking at the message now. It
1:13:39 > 1:13:43seems relatively simple, very plain, but horrifying if you are on the
1:13:43 > 1:13:47receiving end of it.Absolutely true. Of course, we were watching
1:13:47 > 1:13:57the headlines with arguments and debates about this. It was in the
1:13:57 > 1:14:02news a few months ago they were trying to put in place emergency
1:14:02 > 1:14:06contingency plans for this possible scenario. We certainly had that in
1:14:06 > 1:14:11the back of our minds when it came in.Is there any indication of how
1:14:11 > 1:14:17this happened? What are you hearing? As I mentioned, buttons. It is
1:14:17 > 1:14:24interesting to see them say a few hours ago that it was a shift
1:14:24 > 1:14:31change, happens three times a day, 365 days a year, and it takes only
1:14:31 > 1:14:35one person and one button to send out that alert. They will need more
1:14:35 > 1:14:39procedures to stop that happening again.Those procedures are being
1:14:39 > 1:14:45looked at. Absolutely. What went through your mind when you saw it?I
1:14:45 > 1:14:49thought it would be a quiet day, birds were singing, I was lying in
1:14:49 > 1:14:54bed. The alarm went off. I froze for several seconds trying to imagine if
1:14:54 > 1:14:58it actually happened. And from that point, basically, I rallied my
1:14:58 > 1:15:04family, my wife, my three kids, my youngest son was still sleeping, and
1:15:04 > 1:15:07I decided then that moment I would let him sleep, something I am
1:15:07 > 1:15:11rethinking. We went down to the living room and I brought my mother
1:15:11 > 1:15:16in. We try to stay away from windows and turned on the TV. It was nothing
1:15:16 > 1:15:19but college basketball and infomercials. We look for
1:15:19 > 1:15:24information. Local media was not up to speed very quickly. It turned out
1:15:24 > 1:15:27it was just watching Twitter and seeing our representatives in
1:15:27 > 1:15:33Washington, DC declaring that it was a false alarm. Along the border they
1:15:33 > 1:15:39used the state system to tell us the same thing.
1:15:39 > 1:15:44What is more incredible about this story is how long it took for them
1:15:44 > 1:15:49to send the correct information that it was a false alarm.Between the
1:15:49 > 1:15:52rude awakening and looking for information, it was maybe ten or 11
1:15:52 > 1:15:56minutes before I saw it was a false alarm and try to propagate that
1:15:56 > 1:16:00information. I am reading that the system, as easy as it was to trickle
1:16:00 > 1:16:07the alert, there were not protocols in place to send out an all clear.
1:16:07 > 1:16:11That was 38 minutes to getting that message and if that is all you saw,
1:16:11 > 1:16:14panicking, driving home, seeking shelter, it was almost 40 minutes
1:16:14 > 1:16:19before you really knew you were OK. Is there a danger in all of this
1:16:19 > 1:16:28that if it does, heaven forbid, happen for real, the alert will go
1:16:28 > 1:16:35out and people will not pay attention.Widowed want that sits --
1:16:35 > 1:16:42we don't want that situation.
1:16:42 > 1:16:44we don't want that situation. Think the alert, being ready and
1:16:44 > 1:16:48determining it is real, that is something we are good at and we are
1:16:48 > 1:16:52practised at. This particular threat because it is so short, ten minutes
1:16:52 > 1:16:59before something might actually happen, I am hoping we don't get
1:16:59 > 1:17:04deadened to this.Here is hoping your day is a little quieter and
1:17:04 > 1:17:08calmer.
1:17:08 > 1:17:18It's hard to imagine. It must be terrifying. So simple. Take shelter.
1:17:18 > 1:17:2340 minutes to send a correction... Incredible.
1:17:23 > 1:17:27Here's Sarah with a look at this morning's weather.
1:17:27 > 1:17:28Coldweather
1:17:28 > 1:17:33Coldweather runway but not just yet? Things will get unsettled through
1:17:33 > 1:17:40the week. Relatively quiet today. Still cloud around. It has been
1:17:40 > 1:17:46stubborn for the last four or five days. There will be a bit more
1:17:46 > 1:17:49sunshine before rain and wind arrived across the north-west later
1:17:49 > 1:17:54in the day. A few misty and murky patches especially in Northern
1:17:54 > 1:17:58Ireland but that should lift and clear. The cloud should break. Some
1:17:58 > 1:18:06glimpses of sunshine across parts of Wales. Cloudier for Scotland and
1:18:06 > 1:18:09Northern Ireland, ahead of the system for things turning
1:18:09 > 1:18:14increasingly wet and windy but before it gets across the country,
1:18:14 > 1:18:18temperatures are around 4-9. A pretty decent looking day. If you
1:18:18 > 1:18:23are off to see some Premier League matches, you might be able to leave
1:18:23 > 1:18:32the umbrella at home. We see the strongest of the winds at 70 mph in
1:18:32 > 1:18:36Scotland. The strong winds and heavy rain transfer south-east across much
1:18:36 > 1:18:39of the country through tonight. Monday morning rush-hour, we could
1:18:39 > 1:18:45very well see some wet and windy conditions. Lying surface water on
1:18:45 > 1:18:49the roads, combined with the strong winds of perhaps 60 mph first thing
1:18:49 > 1:18:53before the cold air moves in behind that weather front. The setup
1:18:53 > 1:18:56through the first part of this week is for the cold north-westerly
1:18:56 > 1:19:01airflow, bringing with it wintry showers. The heaviest of the rain
1:19:01 > 1:19:05and strong winds on Monday, slowly ease away and then we are in the
1:19:05 > 1:19:11cold air mass where a return to some sunshine is happening but also some
1:19:11 > 1:19:15snow showers in Scotland down to low levels. Sleet and snow over the
1:19:15 > 1:19:20hills but rain and perhaps hail and fund at low levels as well. Tuesday,
1:19:20 > 1:19:24similar, sunshine and wintry showers, sleet and snow,
1:19:24 > 1:19:28particularly, across northern parts of the country. Rain, hail and
1:19:28 > 1:19:32thunderstorms further south. Things are noticeably colder than we have
1:19:32 > 1:19:36seen recently. In the middle of the week, still some cold air that the
1:19:36 > 1:19:39potential for a deepening of low pressure moving eastwards across the
1:19:39 > 1:19:43country. It could get further north and if it does, it could well bring
1:19:43 > 1:19:46some fairly heavy snowfall as well as heavy rain further south and
1:19:46 > 1:19:51strong winds as well. Going on through the middle part of the week
1:19:51 > 1:19:56and after a cold, wintry filling few days, we could see some disruption
1:19:56 > 1:19:59through the middle of the week. With the combination of strong winds,
1:19:59 > 1:20:03heavy rain and snow on the cards, too. Keep tuned to your latest
1:20:03 > 1:20:07forecast and keep an eye on the weather warnings as we head through
1:20:07 > 1:20:13the week ahead. Listeners should see a few glimpses of blue sky, Ben and
1:20:13 > 1:20:15Rachel.More from Sarah
1:20:15 > 1:20:15a few glimpses of blue sky, Ben and Rachel.More from Sarah and little
1:20:15 > 1:20:16later.
1:20:16 > 1:20:23You're watching Breakfast from BBC News.
1:20:23 > 1:20:23It's 7:20.
1:20:23 > 1:20:25Time now for a look at the newspapers.
1:20:25 > 1:20:29Poet and broadcaster Lemn Sissay is here to tell us what's caught his
1:20:29 > 1:20:31eye in the papers this morning.
1:20:31 > 1:20:34We'll speak to Lemn in a minute, but first let's take a look
1:20:34 > 1:20:35at the front pages.
1:20:35 > 1:20:42The Observer carries the headline about Nigel Farage admitting
1:20:42 > 1:20:43the Brexit vote could be overturned.
1:20:43 > 1:20:51Staying with the EU theme the Independent says Brussels
1:20:51 > 1:20:53will target Britain's overseas tax havens.
1:20:53 > 1:20:55The Sunday Times leads with a minister's legal challenge
1:20:55 > 1:20:58to keep the serial sex attacker John Warboys behind bars.
1:20:58 > 1:21:01The Mail on Sunday reports that Jo Marney -
1:21:01 > 1:21:09the girlfriend of UKIP leader Henry Bolton -
1:21:25 > 1:21:28has been suspended from the party after it was it revealed she made
1:21:28 > 1:21:36racist comments about Prince Harry's wife-to-be Meghan Markle.
1:21:44 > 1:21:48Starting with the story inside the Sunday Times. The name on your
1:21:48 > 1:22:01passport which may affect a number of us this morning.
1:22:03 > 1:22:06of us this morning.5000 women have signed a petition in the hope of
1:22:06 > 1:22:09ending what they say is a distressing experience of being
1:22:09 > 1:22:12asked to prove that they are the mothers of their children when
1:22:12 > 1:22:24they're going through passport control. It happened
1:22:24 > 1:22:26control. It happened to 600,000 women. It's not just the colour of
1:22:26 > 1:22:31British passports that might change, it's the fact that the parents'
1:22:31 > 1:22:38names may be on the passports because mothers, I didn't know this,
1:22:38 > 1:22:43mothers having a different name to their child will be asked for their
1:22:43 > 1:22:48husbands to prove that they're the mother of the child.It is
1:22:48 > 1:22:52ludicrous. There will be plenty of women who go travelling who do not
1:22:52 > 1:22:55share the same name of their children but will not be travelling
1:22:55 > 1:22:59with their partner, spouse or whoever. I have to say, I haven't
1:22:59 > 1:23:03had this at all myself and my name is different to that of my children.
1:23:03 > 1:23:08Mind you, I try not to travel with them if I can help it. At may well
1:23:08 > 1:23:17be why. Bello hold another story. --A whole other story.Producer just
1:23:17 > 1:23:22told me that it had happened to her. A secret prejudice, really, that
1:23:22 > 1:23:29somebody like me wouldn't know about.Quite often you are required
1:23:29 > 1:23:34to bring your child's birth certificate.And because of child
1:23:34 > 1:23:38trafficking and the awareness of that, this problem is happening.
1:23:38 > 1:23:44Mothers who are tied of interrogations are trying to stop
1:23:44 > 1:23:53that from happening. One woman said, do I have to get her father to prove
1:23:53 > 1:23:57that I'm her mother? And the board officials said they wanted to be
1:23:57 > 1:24:01sure. She had to go over the baggage carousel, find her husband and prove
1:24:01 > 1:24:06that she was the mother of the child and she does 90% of the care, it
1:24:06 > 1:24:11says here, of the child. It is humiliating and degrading, to be
1:24:11 > 1:24:17honest.Turning our attention to the story in the Observer. Highlighting
1:24:17 > 1:24:28the link between alcohol and cancer. Yeah! This is not a moral crusade by
1:24:28 > 1:24:34the MP who was a former cancer patient will stop she is on a
1:24:34 > 1:24:43mission to change the drinking culture of Westminster. -- she was a
1:24:43 > 1:24:47former cancer patient. She is on a mission. I've got nothing against
1:24:47 > 1:24:56pub landlords at a pub landlord said to her
1:24:56 > 1:25:02to her that the teetotallers had over influenced the idea that people
1:25:02 > 1:25:06shouldn't drink as much.This was recommended guidelines for alcohol
1:25:06 > 1:25:14consumption over one week?That's right. Sorry, she was taking his
1:25:14 > 1:25:19case on board and said she would do research. She found out from the
1:25:19 > 1:25:32world casually shows fund -- -- World Cancer Research Fund, that it
1:25:32 > 1:25:47is actually a carcinogens, alcohol. He is on a crusade to have less
1:25:47 > 1:25:53alcohol consumption in the Houses of Parliament. -- she is on a crusade.
1:25:53 > 1:25:56It highlights conflicting advice that you get from different studies
1:25:56 > 1:26:00and surveys and who is involved and whether funding has come from and
1:26:00 > 1:26:04what is acceptable and what is not. That is part of the issue. What can
1:26:04 > 1:26:12we believe? According to that report, no drinking of alcohol.It
1:26:12 > 1:26:16is dry January for me at the moment so I am feeling slightly better but
1:26:16 > 1:26:19we all needed it after Christmas. Interesting here from the Sunday
1:26:19 > 1:26:23Telegraph, talking about care for the elderly, talking about it as a
1:26:23 > 1:26:31cultural dilemma. We need to look at it. From lessons from the far east.
1:26:31 > 1:26:38The examples are out there from the far east. This woman's family is
1:26:38 > 1:26:46from the east. Over 85 -year-olds are set to rise, the ageing
1:26:46 > 1:26:54population is set to rise by two thirds by 2030. Having the elderly
1:26:54 > 1:26:59around us, putting pressure or demands on the NHS, it will become
1:26:59 > 1:27:04more and more of an issue. Women is saying that if we look to the east,
1:27:04 > 1:27:08the extended family where the parents can live with the
1:27:08 > 1:27:14grandparents, the grandsons and daughters, could be announced that
1:27:14 > 1:27:17she also says that's quite difficult.It's not practically
1:27:17 > 1:27:26possible, there are not many people with that much space and also
1:27:26 > 1:27:35fractured families...She said both sides of the issue.There would be
1:27:35 > 1:27:38great benefits in having a multigenerational setup. Aunty 's
1:27:38 > 1:27:48and uncles and the influence they can have, positive. -- aunties.
1:27:48 > 1:27:59Eleanor the rivalry between Liam and Noel Gallagher. -- the rivalry.Liam
1:27:59 > 1:28:08is nominated and Noel is not. That is the problem. Leigh it is like
1:28:08 > 1:28:17city and United, isn't it? -- it is like City and United.Don't say that
1:28:17 > 1:28:24to them!I think they both secretly go out on midnight walks in the park
1:28:24 > 1:28:29holding hands and think about the next story they can put out.There
1:28:29 > 1:28:38is a great documentary about All Asus, online. It really tells story.
1:28:38 > 1:28:47-- Oasis.It is called Super Sonic. It is the nature of families to
1:28:47 > 1:28:54fallout but also to get back together.A nice note to end on.
1:28:54 > 1:28:57The Andrew Marr programme is on BBC One at 9:00 this morning.
1:28:57 > 1:28:59Andrew, who is on the programme today?
1:28:59 > 1:29:04I wish I could say I had Liam and in all playing us out at what I do have
1:29:04 > 1:29:13is Nicola Sturgeon in the studio. -- Liam and Noel. I have Brandon Lewis,
1:29:13 > 1:29:18the new Tory party chairman. Lots of stories but if they are not star
1:29:18 > 1:29:23enough, Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks and Stephen Spielberg. A very busy
1:29:23 > 1:29:28morning.We will tune in.

1:30:23 > 1:30:26review of the decision to release the serial sex attacker,
1:30:26 > 1:30:26John Worboys.
1:30:26 > 1:30:29In 2009, the former Black Cab driver was jailed indefinitely,
1:30:29 > 1:30:31to serve a minimum term of eight years.
