welcome to bbc news. families of the 30 british tourists who were shot dead by a jihadist militant in tunisia have announced that they will sue the tour operator tui. relatives believe the company did not do enough to warn people about the dangers in tunisia. at the end of the inquests today, the coroner refused to rule that the company had shown neglect but he was highly critical of the response of the tunisian police. daniela relph reports. these are the bereaved. for more than a month they have listened to chilling details of multiple murder. many of them witnessed their loved ones being killed. the end of this part of the legal process was an important moment. the inquests were about those who tragically lost their lives. they must never be forgotten, and their families hope that no—one else will ever have to suffer

the same fate in future. the coroner ruled the 30 british tourists who died that day had been unlawfully killed. the inquest has established the facts of what happened at the resort. holiday—makers here react to the first sounds of shooting. these were people running for their lives. 0n the beach was the gunman, seifeddine rezgui. his first targets had been holiday—makers killed on their sun loungers. he then moved to the pool and terrace area, causing chaos and confusion. inside the hotel, he roamed around looking for victims. the court was told that he killed for 16 minutes. no—one stopped him. the police delayed their arrival. one of the marine guard fainted in shock. 0thers hid. the coroner today described the emergency response as, "at its best shambolic,

at its worst cowardly." this animation shows where each person died. in just about every main area of the hotel, somebody was killed. the families believe the travel company tui was negligent, but the coroner rejected this saying there were too many what—ifs and no single thing that could have prevented the attack. judge nicholas lorraine smith told the families, "the simple but tragic truth in this case is that a gunman armed with a gun and grenades went to that hotel intending to kill as many tourists as he could." ray and angie fisher were two of the victims, killed alongside each other on the beach. their families believe tui should have warned of the terrorist threat in tunisia. if they'd have known the reality, and if the tour operator, tui thompson, had played their part and actually said, "look, you know, there is a risk here,"

and directed them to that, i firmly believe they'd never have gone. the tour company has always denied it was to blame. on that day, the world changed. as an industry, we have adapted, and we will need to continue to do so. this terrorist incident left its mark on all of us, and its impact will always be remembered. many of the families, though, will now pursue a civil lawsuit against tui. the coroner will also look at whether he can make any recommendations to help prevent such a massacre ever happening again. as the inquest closed, the coroner told the families that they had shown a quiet dignity of which their loved ones would be proud. daniela relph, bbc news, at the royal courts ofjustice. a total of 38 people were killed on the day injune 2015, 30 of whom were british. the families who attended the inquests have been describing having to relive

the events in sousse. suzanne evans lost her son, brother and father. and cheryl stollery‘s husband was killed in the hotel carpark. they've been speaking to our correspondent sarah campbell. people say to me how do i cope. and i say, "well, you know, i'm stilla mum," and i'm thankful of that, that i've still got 0wen, and 0wen keeps me alive. the day after this photograph was taken, suzanne's father pat, eldest son joel and her brother adrian were killed. 0nly 0wen, on the left of the picture, survived. he was 16 years old at the time. his grandfather died in his arms. the coroner mentioned your youngest son, 0wen, and his extraordinary courage — how is he coping? he's doing well, he's an inspiration to us all. i often say if owen can get up and go to school and do the things that he's doing, then i haven't got any reason why i can't.

so we follow owen. he's fantastic. cheryl stollery not only has the loss of her husband john to cope with, but the memories of that day. john was shot as both ran from the gunman. my thought at the time was, "i'm going to die," and where was my son? we were trying to seek refuge, we didn't know where to go, no—one was directing us anywhere, it was just a free—for—all. john was robbed of the respect and dignity by the way he was killed. it's particularly heartbreaking to think that if the police had been called, if the national guard had got there sooner, then lives could have, or probably would have, been saved. can anything positive come out of what happened onjune 26th 2015? no. we can never bring the people, those 30 people, back. what we have to do is learn to live

with that, to try and move on. there's always going to be people out there who want to impose their will, their beliefs on others. we need to get better at protecting, and looking at ways in which to safeguard, and we can only do that if all the people involved start communicating and working far more closely in partnership. and i will do all i can to try and do my part to make a difference. the day's other main story is that the former owner of bhs, sir philip green, has agreed to pay £363 million to help fund the gap in the company's pension scheme. the collapse of bhs last year left

19,000 former staff facing the loss of their pensions and sir philip was heavily criticised for his management of the company while the pension deficit grew significantly. our business editor simonjack has more details. last summer, sir philip green made the bhs pensioners a promise. we will sort it, we will find a solution, and i want to give an assurance to the 20,000 pensioners, um, i'm there to sort this. what he was promising to sort was leaving thousands of pensioners short—changed after bhs collapsed, having been sold by sir philip a year earlier to a twice—bankrupt retailing novice forjust £1. he has agreed to pay £363 million of his own money to plug a hole in the pension fund estimated on some measures to be £571 million deep. so this settlement is not enough to give 19,000 pensioners their full entitlement, but it's better than they would have got in the industry rescue fund. the ordinary members of the pension scheme,

there are 19,000, 20,000 of them, do 0k out of this, it's an ok deal for them. they're slightly better off than they would be by staying in the pension protection fund, but it's at the margin. anne bostock worked at bhs for 42 years. this deal will improve her pension, but she thinks it could have been sorted out much sooner. i think it's disgusting, i think he should have done it straightaway. he should have been, you know, no questions asked, "i've been found out, i'll sort it." that dark stain you can see up there is all that is left of bhs‘s flagship store here on oxford street, but the debate about the pensions mess left behind, the corporate culture that allowed it all to happen, and sir philip green's behaviour has raged on. now, he'll be hoping this settlement puts that all behind him. others will see today as a very significant precedent for the future. great value, good quality... sir philip was vilified by the public and politicians who saw him as a mascot

for corporate greed. today his critic in chief issued this grudging acknowledgement. it's a very important milestone in getting justice for pensioners and workers at bhs. pensioners have got a better deal than they would have done, they haven't got everything, but there's a long way to go in the inquiries before sir philip green and the bhs book is closed. this settlement was voluntary, but he was being pursued vigorously by regulators, who will now stand down. £363 million isjust over 10% of his net worth, a price worth paying, perhaps, for his reputation and his knighthood. whether he can keep either is still not, in his words, sorted. let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news this evening. a 21—year—old man from cardiff has been jailed for life for stabbing his former girlfriend and her partner to death.

andrew saunders launched the attack early one morning in september last year outside a city centre store where the couple worked. he was said to have spent weeks planning the murders. staff from southern rail, arriva rail north and merseyrail are expected to go on strike on the same day, march 13th, in a dispute over the future of guards on trains. the rmt union opposes plans to introduce driver—only operated trains. union officials say the move will make services potentially dangerous. the senior police officer who takes the lead on issues of child protection has suggested that people caught viewing indecent images of children should not always face a criminal charge. simon bailey said forces were overwhelmed by the scale of the problem and he said police should focus on the most dangerous paedophiles. mr bailey has been speaking to our home editor mark easton. saying the unsayable, the chief constable who believes paedophiles who view images of child sexual abuse should not necessarily be prosecuted.

simon bailey argues, with resources stretched, those deemed to pose a very low—risk of physically abusing children might simply be arrested, monitored and rehabilitated rather than take it to court. we are arresting 400 men every month for viewing indecent imagery of children. we are safeguarding 500 children every single month, but we are dealing with the tip of the iceberg. the public will say it's not robust enough. if this is the tip of the iceberg, let's get the iceberg? right, but i can't... i don't have the resources to get the whole of the iceberg. what i'm advocating is a proposal that still manages the risk, but it's targeted. police chiefs fear new and historical child abuse cases threaten to overwhelm them. 70,000 investigations in a single year, an estimated annual policing cost of £1 billion and even then just touching the surface,

with analysis suggesting half a million people in england and wales have illegally viewed images of child sexual abuse. how can you be sure that somebody who is at home looking at vile pictures of child abuse is not, the next day, going to go out and abuse a child? and i can't be absolutely sure, but... well then, arrest them, deal with them? ..but we are arresting them. as i've demonstrated, 400 every month is more than any other law enforcement agency is doing, i believe, anywhere in the world. i have to balance our resources against the whole of the risk. police in sussex already visit some individuals found to be viewing online images of child abuse and warn them they face criminal action if they continue. but some survivors believe it's outrageous to even suggest such offences are decriminalised. i think it was an incredibly unhelpful, i would go as far as to say, almost dangerous thing to say, that people who abuse children or who view images and thus pay others to abuse children may escape justice. the home office has distanced itself from chief constable bailey's remarks, saying that ministers

are clear that strong criminal justice sanctions remain the response when terrible crimes, like viewing images of child sexual abuse online, are committed. britain is beginning to realisejust how huge a problem the sexual abuse of children has been and continues to be. now even those charged charged with protecting children admit we cannot simply arrest our way to a solution. mark easton, bbc news. that's a summary of the news, newsday is coming up at midnight. now on bbc news it's time for newsnight with evan davies. are you going to answer any questions about the contacts of your associate with the russians during the campaign? can you guarantee no one in the campaign had any contact with the russians? the president versus the press. is the media now the

official opposition? we have an intimate inside look at a turbulent week of a complex adversarial relationship. no direct questions about the biggest news story by far is insane. and the issue does not come up in a press conference? the audience is being told not to trust us. ahead of the president's big speech to congress tonight, we'll discuss the fights he picks, and the victories he can expect to achieve. also tonight: i have to balance our resources against the whole of the risk. is there such a thing as a low risk paedophile? we'll ask if rehabilitation is ever a better route than jail. and on newsnight: inventors have deep pockets, let's make sure we hold them responsible for the dangers they are introducing into the world.
