coming up on bbc news, we'll bring you all the action and reaction from day one at the all—england club. join me for wimbledon sportsday at 6.30pm. good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. it's a report that is hundreds of pages long and it catalogues the abuse and humiliation of children in jersey for decades. crucially, the independent jersey care inquiry says children may still be at risk. it recommends that the children's home at the centre of the scandal — haut de la garenne — should be demolished. more than 600 witnesses gave evidence, describing a culture of indifference in which children were abandoned in the care system. robert hall is injersey for us this evening.

robert. george, hundreds of islanders have waited today for a day when their suffering would be acknowledge it and when in independent voices catalogued failure. this is a report about children trapped in establishments with abusive carers and little access to outside help. in the last half—hour, jersey's government has a knowledge those failures and apologised again. it says it will act on every recommendation the report has put forward. i used to be woken up some nights with screaming from the boys. he hung himself. don't say anything to anybody. the island ofjersey, proud

and independent, but according to the report, an island whose attitude to children in the care system was indefensible. chair frances oldham said children had been abandoned in a system with no regard to their rights and needs. the panel identified what she termed the jersey way. the expression is said to refer to the maintenance of proud and ancient traditions and the preservation of the island's way of life. using the expression in a pejorative way, it is said to involve the production of powerful interests and resistance to change, even when change is pay to be necessary. allegations of abuse in jersey came to public prominence during police operations at this form are children's home. the search form are children's home. the search for human remains at haut de la garenne was inconclusive, but the images spurred islanders who had kept their secrets for so long to come forward. madeleine, who has written a book about her experiences

enabled slimani vulnerable children to be abused while in care? it is a devastating read —— so many vulnerable children. the panel said eve ina vulnerable children. the panel said eve in a new homes children were not receiving the care and support they needed. the report acknowledges that progress has been made, but it calls for urgent action to end fear and mistrust. haut de la garenne, say the panel, should be torn down. kids who were in the home, are no longer here, disease, alcohol and drugs. and for the ones who are remaining, iam very and for the ones who are remaining, i am very pleased. a 16—year—old girl has pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of seven—year—old katie rough in january. katie was found on a playing field in york with severe injuries to her neck and chest. she died from her injuries in hospital. the teenager can't be named because of her young age. danny savage reports. seven—year—old katie rough, an innocent, much—loved schoolgirl, killed by another child who heard voices in her head. an older girl, who we can't identify

for legal reasons, who told a friend she had dreams of killing someone. it was a school day afternoon and just getting dark when katie rough was found fatally injured at the end of an alleyway on the edge of a playing field here in york. the seven—year—old died a short time later in hospital. it then emerged that a 15—year—old girl had attacked her with a knife. immediately afterwards, the teenager told a man nearby that katie was dead. he went to find her. she had been smothered and stabbed. katie's parents were quickly told what had happened and dashed to the scene. we found her at the same time as a police officer found her. and i cradled her. i saw her injuries, i knew she was gone. and... i don't know, it's impossible to describe.

we just held each other, didn't we? today, the teenage girl who killed katie admitted what she had done here. she denied murder, but pleaded guilty to manslaughter by diminished responsibility. katie's parents have been left with just memories. she was very loving. she was shy with other people but with us she was sassy. she was loud at times, just your typical seven—year—old girl. leeds crown court heard the teenager who killed this seven—year—old believed people weren't human, and were robots. the older girl didn't speak at all today, leaving others to explain the consequences of her disturbed mind. there was no dispute here at leeds

crown court about the goal‘s state of mind when she killed katie. a friend said she was nice but weird, and liked to talk about death. but the court also heard that the 16—year—old had suicidal thoughts, had developed severe mental health problems during 2016. she went on to kill in january this year. problems during 2016. she went on to kill injanuary this year. the judge did not sentence had today. he has asked for more expert medical opinion before he makes his final decision later this month. thank you. theresa may has said there is no difference in the line on public sector pay. that's despite a succession of her ministers lining up to say that it's time to remove the 1% pay cap in england. downing street says it will listen to the recommendations of the various independent

pay review bodies. but pay rises for millions of workers — including doctors, nurses and the armed forces — has already been fixed at 1% for the next year. here's our economics editor kamal ahmed. there are two stap figures at the heart of this battle over public sector pay. 1%, the pay cut proposed for nurses, teachers, firefighters and other public sector workers, and 2.996, and other public sector workers, and 2.9%, the rate at which prices are rising, inflation. forthe 5% 2.9%, the rate at which prices are rising, inflation. for the 5% of people this effect, their real incomes are falling. alan daly is a firefighter from 0xfordshire, like so firefighter from 0xfordshire, like so many others weary of the living standards squeeze. they don't expect to be rich but they don't expect to ask for hand—outs. i hear time and time again, they have second jobs. some do because they have to put food on the table. the pressure is growing. cabinet heavyweights are lining up to call for rethink on the public sector pay cap, much to the irritation of the treasury which says balancing the books is to the

vital part of the government's economic policy. paying for public sector workers is one of the biggest thing the government does. we spend £100 billion a year on doctors, nurses, teachers and policemen and so on. each 1% on but big number, itself costs quite a lot. this is the public sector pay challenge. well pay in the public sector has been capped at 1%, in the private sector, average increases are running at 3.3%. this is leading to recruitment problems. the private sector is simply becoming more attractive. and then there is the cost of any pay rise. that could be as high as £1.5 billion. for every 196 as high as £1.5 billion. for every 1% extra paid to the 1.5 billion people employed in the public sector. the treasury says money will need to come from higher taxes, more borrowing or a better performing economy. as we have seen with the

poor economic figures at the start of the year, relying on economic growth can be dangerous. but how would economists tackle the public sector pay challenge? it is perfectly straightforward to say you can raise taxes to pay for this. i think the barrier there is political. we have had a government who have been saying we want to at least level of public any increases. we do not want to have tax increases, we would rather give people tax cuts. this is now two movable object pressing delete macro crashing into each other. whether it is the response to the grenfell tower tragedy, or protests, the government's decision is precarious making any decision it makes politically and economically high risk. well, our political editor laura kuenssberg is at westminster for us this evening. laura, whatever happened to cabinet

unity, it seems every day another minister comes along and expresses his or her views? well, there are not many wallflowers around this place. normally there is a sense of discipline where cabinet ministers will have big rows and discussions about things in private but in public they all stick to the same line. that is not the case on this issue. there is much more discussion of this going on than we have seen over the airwaves in the last few days. privately, there are plenty of ministers who are saying they want to see the cap lifted. they want to lift the lid on the pay limits of millions of nurses, teachers, police officers and the rest of the public sector. but don't let those public pronouncements in the last couple of days make you think there are not plenty who are opposite arguing in the opposite direction. 0ne minister said to me the other day it would be utter madness just to ditch the cap in the confusing aftermath of an election, because it is part of the policy, the fiscal framework if you like, to give it the technical term,

that the government have built up with care over recent years. there are clashing opinions on this and the government is not at the stage of reaching a decision. they have had the easierfirst of reaching a decision. they have had the easier first part of the conversation with people accept and that many public sector workers feeling frankly they are long overdue a pay rise but i yet to get digging into the second part of the conversation. if they make a political decision to do this, what do they cut instead, or which taxes would be increased to pay for it? thank you. 18 people have been killed in a coach crash in germany. the vehicle collided with a lorry on a motorway in bavaria in the south of the country and then burst into flames. police say another 30 passengers have been taken to hospital, some with serious injuries. jenny hill is in bavaria for us this evening. jenny. yes, good evening. investigators are still at the scene of what is one of

germany's worst ever road traffic accidents. earlier this morning 46 german tourists and their two drivers set off on a trip towards italy. within a few hours, everybody on board that coach would be either injured or dead. the heat was so intense, there was no chance of rescue. nothing firefighters could do, they said, to help the people left inside. it is thought the coach ran into the back ofa thought the coach ran into the back of a lorry, before bursting into flames. there were 48 people on board. those who got out in time, we re board. those who got out in time, were all injured, some critically. everyone else, all of them pensioners, died on the bus. translation: the heat must have been so intense, that nothing in flammable is left on the bus. all thatis flammable is left on the bus. all that is left of steel parts, so one can imagine what this must have

meant for the people inside the bus. this afternoon, recovery of the dead, and the beginning of an investigation. the crash happened during an early morning trafficjam. the speed and ferocity of the ensuing fire has shocked many. motivation we know are very large number of victims and a large number of injured. 0ur number of victims and a large number of injured. our thoughts are with police say they have now recovered all of the victims from the wreckage. it's emerged they were german tourists on their way to italy. what should have been the start of a holiday ended in one of the worst road accidents in this country's history. jenny hill, bbc news, bavaria. our top story this evening. a report into decades of child abuse on jersey says children could still be at risk and the home at the centre of the allegations should be demolished.

andy murray sprinting, venus williams in tears. we will have the news from wimbledon, where else? and coming up on bbc news, join me for wimbledon sportsday at 6:30pm. we'll bring you all the latest action and reaction from the all england club, including how andy murray booked his place in round two with a comfortable win. the world's most detailed scan of the brain's internal wiring has been produced by scientists at cardiff university. the mri machine reveals the fibres which carry all the brain's thought processes. doctors hope it will help increase understanding of a range of neurological disorders and could be used instead of invasive biopsies. 0ur medical correspondent fergus walsh volunteered to be scanned — here's his exclusive report. the human brain, all thought,

memory, consciousness is here. in unprecedented detail, these images of my brain show the white matter, fibres called axons, the brain's wiring, which carry billions of electrical signals. those colour—coded green travel between front and back. in red, left and right. in blue, up and down. the scan was done at kubrick, the cardiff university brain research imaging centre. i have had my brain scan for tv reports many times, but neverin scan for tv reports many times, but never in this level of detail. 0k, john. using this special mri scanner, john. using this special mri scanner, there are just three in the world, the team could map the wires, the axons, in my brain, so thin it would take 50 of them to match the thickness of a human hair. you might

feel a little bit more vibration and the scan should last about 15 minutes. the team at cardiff worked with engineers from siemens in germany and the us to create the 3—d images. if we go up and we can see... this has been the most exciting development in my career in mri. it's similarto exciting development in my career in mri. it's similar to being handed a hubble telescope when you have only had binoculars. we can look in far more details than ever before. we can get measures that for the first time will help us address what i call the missing link between structure and function. this woman is one of the research volunteers. she has multiple sclerosis which causes neurological damage will stop rela pses causes neurological damage will stop relapses and attack of symptoms can come on suddenly. it's scary. you can go from being absolutely normal one day to not being able to walk or move, being in a wheelchair and having to go through a recovery

process that can take anywhere from three months to a year. one of the areas of damage we can see here. this is a conventional scan image showing a lesion, an area of damage in her brain. just a contrast with that... but the new scan reveals another level of detail, including the density of the brain's wiring, which scientists have colour—coded. deepin which scientists have colour—coded. deep in the brain, where the cabling is thickest, is shown in white, but the red and green bull's—eye is an area of less density and clearly indicates a brain lesion, that can trigger her movement problems and extreme fatigue. those symptoms are only partially explained by what we see on conventional scans. what this technique allows us to do for the first time is look at the density in exquisite detail along each pathway of the brain and we hope it will allow us to uncover a lot more about the explanation for a wide range of

symptoms in ms. researchers are using the technique to investigate schizophrenia, dementia and epilepsy, and it might even have a role in cancer, allowing virtual biopsies, examining tumours without touching the brain. fergus walsh, bbc news, cardiff. four ex—barclays bankers, including former chief executive john varley, have appeared in court charged with conspiracy to commit fraud. the case relates to the way in which barclays raised emergency funds from qatar during the 2008 financial crisis. all were bailed to appear again in two weeks' time. a teenager has been jailed for a minimum of 16.5 years for planning a terror attack on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on new york. the old bailey heard haroon syed was plotting to bomb an eltonjohn concert in london. two men have been charged after border force officers based in france seized 79 handguns. the weapons had been hidden in engine blocks on a trailer which was about to be taken

through the channel tunnel into britain. two men from poland and the czech republic were arrested in connection with the raid. a price cap on energy bills could be extended to many more households on low incomes, under plans being considered by the regulator, 0fgem. labour said the plans represent a u—turn because the conservatives said in the election campaign they would bring in an even wider price cap for 17 million customers. 0ur personal finance correspondent simon gompertz is here. despite labour's reservations, on the face of it it sounds like good news for millions. if you are one of those that benefits. the conservatives said in their election campaign they would bring in a price cap for people on standard tariffs, which tends to be more, that's two thirds of customers and where 17 million comes from. in the queen's speech, that precise number and

policy didn't appear. the job of dealing with the problem was passed to 0fgem. today we have heard what they are considering doing. they are planning to expand that to another group of poorer pensioners, families, around 2 million people who already get something called the warm home discount. that's why labour say it's a u—turn, it's a watered—down price cap, it's a few million instead of 17 million. when the business secretary greg clark came to the house of commons to a nswer came to the house of commons to answer questions on it today, he left open the possibility of legislation if there wasn't the effect of people paying more, perhaps £100 less on their bills as a result of the changes. it might appeara a result of the changes. it might appear a narrower price cap, but there is the possibility of more drastic action in the future. strawberries, a bit of rain and a straight sets win for andy murray —

yes, it's wimbledon. this year's championships got under way today with the defending men's champion overcoming a hip injury to beat alexander bublik. joe wilson has been watching all the action at the all—england club. you know when a sports person has reached a certain level of prominence when an injury concern ta kes prominence when an injury concern takes on almost a national significance. and so we became consumed by andy murray's hip. he was on court today for one hour and 44 minutes. by the end of the match any sign of a lip had largely been replaced by a swagger. the hoping, the queueing, the watching. close watching. there was the defending champion, but how would he move? making his opponent scamper was all part of the plan, but andy murray would have to run too at some point. the first set went to murray simply enough, 6—1, against the tattooed 20—year—old from kazakhstan.

alexander bublik was taking it all in. on his first centre court appearance, he certainly forced murray to stretch himself. injured hip? here he comes. second set to murray, 6—4. there were two breaks for rain in the third set. i hope that suited you. murray and bublik spent the weather delay chatting about the match, all very friendly. murray's straight sets victory ended with another dash towards the net. now, trust in the ice bath. how are you feeling? with the adrenaline and stuff, it's sort of helps, numbs some pains you might have. i moved well today. and, yeah, thought i did pretty well for the first match. white kit, clenched fist, all very familiar. very wimbledon. and tickets are still sold on the day for those who stand in line. but tradition can only operate in today's world, and in the light of current security concerns, this year

the queue is protected from potential vehicle attack by a barrier of concrete. plan for any circumstance — there will always be the unexpected. petra kvitova was back at wimbledon today still learning her game again after she was stabbed by an intruder in december. kvitova still can't fully grip a racket, but here's the power that made her a wimbledon winner. yes, courage defines her. and to finish... yeah. johanna la rsson beaten in straight sets. that's the kvitova wimbledon remembers. my my motivation was a big motivation to come back and play. it was a dream come true and i was able to play here again. venus williams at wimbledon today, 20 years after her debut. last month she was involved ina debut. last month she was involved in a fatal debut. last month she was involved inafatal car debut. last month she was involved in a fatal car accident in florida. she won her first—round

in a fatal car accident in florida. she won herfirst—round match in a fatal car accident in florida. she won her first—round match and then came to speak, described the situation as devastating, and then... she couldn't continue. that's a glimpse of what has happened here so far. play is ongoing. heather watson and johanna konta both set up in their first—round matches. a dominant straight sets victory for rafa nadal here earlier today. seven years since he last won wimbledon, don't rule him out this year. what about the wimbledon weather for the next few days? here's sarah keith lucas. things should stay mostly dry for the next few days but there is the chance by thursday we could see heavy showers interrupting play at wimbledon. today has been glorious across many parts of the country. this was in devon. we have some late sunshine, clear skies to be enjoyed. through the evening and overnight it. to cloud overfrom through the evening and overnight it. to cloud over from the west and

we will see rain for northern ireland, and then creeping east through southern scotland and north—west england. most other parts of the country dry tonight and it will feel warm and muggy in the south with temperatures overnight holding up at 15 or 16 degrees. through the day tomorrow, the weather dominated by a slow—moving front. three zones of weather. in far north and northern scotland, fresh with some sunshine. then we have the rain sitting under the system for southern scotland and the far north of england. under that it is looking dry with some sunshine. 13 in the north, and highs in the south of a pretty warm 25 degrees. thing is continuing to warm up into the middle of the week. at wimbledon, mostly dry in the next few days. quite a lot of sunshine on wednesday but by thursday the cloud building could bring some sharp showers. until wednesday, a front moving its way gradually north

across the uk, introducing pretty warm aircoming from across the uk, introducing pretty warm air coming from the south. perhaps a light shower or two across that frontal system across parts of scotla nd that frontal system across parts of scotland and northern ireland. for the bulk of the country, a dry day with plenty of sunshine. temperatures ranging between 14 in aberdeen down to a warmer 28 degrees on wednesday. it can't last for ever. by the time we hit thursday, some thunderstorms. that's all from the bbc news at six — so it's goodbye from me — and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. this is bbc news, the headlines: an independent inquiry into child abuse in thejersey care system, has found that children may still be at risk. the islands chief minister has apologised, for failing to protect the victims. iam i am deeply sorry. we did not do what we should have done. people

cared more for the status quo, for a quiet life, than for children. a 16—year—old girl has pleaded guilty at leeds crown court, to the manslaughter of seven—year—old katie rough. she was found with fatal injuries in a park in york injanuary. a 19—year—old man has beenjailed for life at the old bailey for plotting to bomb targets including
