tomorrow. wales take on moldova in a world cup qualifier tonight, looking to move a step closer to mixture's tournament in russia. —— to mixture's tournament in russia. for serving members of the british army have been arrested on suspicion of being members of the national action a band neo—nazi group. they are being held under trevor laws of the police say that the public was never ended. three were arrested in britain and one in cyprus. another man, nota britain and one in cyprus. another man, not a soldier, is being detained. the bbc‘s been told three of the men are members

of the royal anglian regiment, which recruits in norfolk, suffolk, essex and cambridgeshire. four were arrested in the uk, one in cyprus. an army spokesman said... that group is national action, which described itself last year in the language of hitler's fascism, as a national socialist youth movement. its members marched the streets. the focus was as much on spreading neo—nazi ideas online. but experts say the far right is not well supported. i think extreme right groups in britain and others like britain first are very good these days at creating a sense of greater scale using social media than is actually the case. probably with national action, we're looking at people in the tens to perhaps the low hundreds at very best. but when the labour mpjo cox was murdered by a loner influenced

by similar far right propaganda, the government acted, proscribing or banning national action. despite their name, national action seeks to divide communities and stir up hatred. they are entirely contrary to the interests of our nation. prescribing this neo—nazi group will prevent its membership growing, prevent them spreading propaganda which allows a culture of hatred and division to thrive. legally, the group should not now exist but police in birmingham are questioning five suspected members under counterterrorism laws, while searches of properties are carried out. three years ago, she will murdered by her mother at family home. today, a review into her case says that

hardly too overshadowed by concern for her mother. her dress couldn't have been predicted but social workers were criticised for not reporting. ayeeshia—jayne smith, known as a] to her family. a toddler with a thin frame and described as a happy and smiley child. at 21 months old, her life was brutally cut short by her mother. kathryn smith, a former drug addict with a history of aggression and self—harm, stamped her daughter to death. today, the serious case review said social workers and medical staff should have asked more questions. the report says... it says... derbyshire county council has said sorry.

how can you assure people at home that this won't happen again? can you? can you actually provide that assurance? we work with hundreds of children every single day and we work hard to keep them safe and the majority of times, we are successful at doing so, but one death is one death too many. and a death in such tragic circumstances, of course we are all impacted by it and i am determined to make our services as strong as they can be to minimise the risk of this happening again. a] was at home in the ground—floor flat behind me when she was murdered. medical experts believe her heart was torn by one forceful stamp. pathologists also found 16 other injuries on her body including an historical bleed to the brain and a damaged spine. she was taken to hospital on more than one occasion in the year she died, including four cuts on her lip and chin and after collapsing.

again, warning signs were missed. the trust agree with the report's findings. we had two instances where we definitely didn't show enough professional curiosity around ayeeshia—jayne's attendance. the febrile convulsion wasn't as it turned out a febrile convulsion. we didn't go into ayeeshia—jayne's social situation, herfamily situation as much as we should have, we didn't ask enough questions. concerns raised by aj's biological father, ricky booth, were also ignored. the aim of this review is to learn lessons. but for aj's family, today's report will bring little comfort after the ordeal they have been through. corinne may—chahal is a professor of child protection and welfare at lancaster university and chair of the college of social work. shejoins us from lancaster via webcam. thank you for being with us. it's an

interesting this case, because i was talking to the former president of the association of directors of children's services a bitterly and he said that serious case reviews —— a bit earlier. he said that serious case reviews don't really seem to work and they don't perform the function that they are supposed to perform, to foster a sense that lessons must be learnt after a tragedy. i think that's an interesting point. the point about serious case reviews is that they should stimulate systemic cloning, it's not just about a should stimulate systemic cloning, it's notjust about a particular case, it's a window on the system. —— systemic cloning. we need to look

at the picture. to avoid blaming, he wrote there about —— wrote about the sense that something should have been done differently but also the idea that something has happened and will people change their behaviour? it's not just will people change their behaviour? it's notjust social will people change their behaviour? it's not just social workers, there's a whole range of different professionals involved. will they actually change their behaviour? interesting element of this case, it's got all the characteristics of several other well—publicised child deaths, disguised compliance, where pa rents deaths, disguised compliance, where parents tractable goodwill over the professionals‘ in hospitals, social workers. —— parents try to pull the will. how are we managing that in everyday practice? that‘s notjust social workers, all professionals. how do we get through this disguised

compliance in a challenging way? at the same time, try and report the child and family if we can to improve. —— support details. child and family if we can to improve. -- support details. even the medical director of one of the hospital trust that treated little ayeeshia with her injuries. he said that some of the staff lacked professional curiosity. that lack of professional curiosity. that lack of professional career city is a phrase that crops up time and time again in serious case reviews —— professional curiosity. the police, professionals in hospitals, they are not asking the right questions, they don‘t seem capable of getting to the crux of a particular issue when it comes to these serious cases. the thing is that when you read through the case you can see all these, what appeared to be missed opportunities. hundreds

of children are dealt with every day by local authorities, this issue of curiosity is important but it‘s like at what point do you really drill down? there‘s 100 children use the indicator, which to decide, that is the one to ask more questions about? it's the one to ask more questions about? it‘s a difficult professional call and it requires experience and training to do that. it does, but i think for observers watching this interview or reading about this case, the fact that the biological father was concerned and he was ignored, it feels as if you don‘t need to be a rocket scientist to have wa nted need to be a rocket scientist to have wanted to listen to the sky, does it? well, no. —— to this guy.

this points to another issue in this case. the role of significant others in the child‘s environment and taking seriously what they say. what happens is there is a history, which i don‘t know, i can‘t talk about it, but there are cases where there is a history of people coming in and out of their engagement with local authorities and social care and that one point they might be aggressive and angry with social care or not co—operate and the next time they might put in a call like that and say, my child is being abused. at what point do you... the relationship isn‘t there. we have to be better at making relationships with significant others in the child‘s lives and understanding their perspective but at the same time you can accept, members of the

public don‘t see how often it is that cases, you get lots of phone calls about particular cases and some can be malicious. again, the experience, training and professional curiosity comes into play to decide what is malicious and what isn‘t. it can be the same person in the same case. nobody is pretending that any of this is easy. absolutely. thanks for joining pretending that any of this is easy. absolutely. thanks forjoining us. and we‘ll find out how this story — and many others — are covered in tomorrow‘s front pages at 10:40 this evening in the papers — our guests joining me tonight are the political commentator, lance price and liam halligan, chief economics commentator at the daily telegraph. hurricane irma has been reclassified as an "extremely dangerous" category five storm, the most powerful there is, as it heads towards the caribbean

and the southern united states. with sustained winds of 175 mph, irma is due to move over part of the leeward islands tonight — around antigua. it has been said to being the strongest hurricane ever recorded in the atlantic basin. it's been classified with sustained winds of 185 mph. the strongest ever hurricane recorded at 190, so it is a monster of a strong. it‘s continuing to intensify and to go towards the leeward islands. it looks likely to make landfall across the island of antiqua. maybe during the island of antiqua. maybe during the early hours of tuesday morning, local time. devastating strength of the winds and gusts of wind, in

excess of 220 mascara. it‘s the storm surge as well, non—11 foot, the meter is potentially of significant rainfall across these islands. this will cause devastating flooding towards those islands. it will continue to go westerly for the next few days. it's just had will continue to go westerly for the next few days. it'sjust had a hurricane, harvey, cause a lot of problems. the problems from harvey came when it became storm harvey and stunned a lot of rental. irma has heavy winds, which harvey didn‘t have, and rainfall so. irma, for a hurricane to continue, it needs warmer waters. it weakens off as it goes landward. with irma, the potential is it will continue to

track in a north—westerly direction across the leeward isles, then towards st kitts and needless and perhaps the british virgin islands, proctor riegel, then towards florida, potentially. —— priorto recover. because it's moving across water as well as land. it will hang around for 45 days. it could cause catastrophic damage and notjust one island. it could continue on into parts of southern florida, so we are keeping a close eye on it. there is another tropical storm almost in the same track as irma developing behind it, this is jose. same track as irma developing behind it, this isjose. 0n same track as irma developing behind it, this isjose. on top of that, in the gulf of mexico, 70% chance of a tropical storm developing. on the

line it, caroline cobbe. thank you for being with us from montserrat. how were we to argue for great you are? extremely worried. -- how worried are the people? this is the worst they will have experienced. the island was devastated in 1989. any idea when irma might hit montserrat? we are just starting to experience the edge now. this evening will be the main part and tomorrow the full impact. we are about 30 miles from antiqua and barbuda, who will take the brunt of the storm, the i of the storm will pass over them. what preparations

are being made by the authorities there to deal with this? the hurricane shelter is open. this morning, the sieben sounded at 11 to save they are open. any people would be gone. —— the sieben sounded at 11. i had to look after my animals and move them into shelter. i‘ve moved myself so that the highs i‘m in is very solid. you are already feeling the wind is picking up at the moment? yes, the weather is starting to become. the main part will be tomorrow. tonight will see an increase in these conditions. tomorrow. tonight will see an increase in these conditionsm sounds as if people have had time to prepare, to get to shelters, to do with this thing. yes, we became

aware of this about thursday last week, so we‘ve had several days to get ready. good luck to you and all the folk in montserrat. thank you for joining the folk in montserrat. thank you forjoining us. the headlines on bbc news: for serving members of the army had been arrested on suspicion of terror offences and belonging to a band knew that the group. a serious case review into the murder of 21—month—old in staffordshire three yea rs 21—month—old in staffordshire three years ago says that social workers missed danger signs. resident region has one of a global catastrophe of military tensions continue on the korean peninsula. —— president putin. now time for a look at the sports news. wales are in moldova this evening as their bid for world cup qualification continues. it‘s still goalless but wales with the biggest chance so far. gareth bale, aaron ramsey

and hal robson kanu all with opportunities to score here but none of them could manage it. so no goals after around half an hour in the moldovan capital. elsewhere in wales‘ group, second placed ireland host leaders serbia. shane duffy thought he‘d nodded the irish in front on ten minutes — only for the goal to be correctly ruled out for offside. half an hour gone — still goalless. also tonight coach of england‘s women — mark sampson says his conscience is clear following allegations of bullying, discrimination and racism made by striker eni aluko. sampson was cleared by an fa inquiry into aluko‘s claims and by an independent investigation. i‘ve heard the specifics of the allegation and at the time that we released a statement to be clear that i didn‘t say that. i‘m

disappointed the allegations have come out but i understand it. all i can say is i didn‘t say that to her with any of my communication. my intention is to support the players, give them confidence and every chance to be successful on the field. meanwhile sampson has named a 26—player squad for their opening world cup qualifier against russia later this month. there are recalls for defenders gemma bonner and jess carter, forwards danielle carter and melissa lawley, as well as goalkeeper mary earps. liverpool right—back nathaniel clyne has been ruled out for a significant period of time due to a back injury. clyne wasn‘t named in liverpool‘s champions league squad for the group stage. managerjurgen klopp says the reality is that the england defender won‘t be back playing for some time. chris froome has nearly doubled his lead after winning the individual time trial at the vuelta a espana.

froome is aiming to complete the tour de france, vuelta double and obliterated the field over the forty kilometre course today. he now heads his nearest rival vincenzo nibali by one minute and fifty nine seconds and is strong favourite to win the vuelta for the first time. the big match on day nine of the us open sees two times champion venus williams take on petra kvitova in the last eight. kvitova is continuing her comeback from a serious hand injury after being attacked in her home last december. that starts at midnight our time. earlier, spain‘s pablo correno busta breezed past argentina‘s diego schwartzman in straight sets to reach the semi finals. carreno busta is the highest ranked player in the bottom half of the draw and is is yet to drop a set in the tournament. england‘s bowling coach 0tis gibson expects james anderson to continue playing international cricket beyond this winter‘s ashes series england‘s leading wicket taker goes into thursday‘s third and deciding test against the west indies at lord‘s

three wickets short of 500 in tests. he‘s turned 35 this summer and is sixth in the all—time list of test wicket takers. ultimately, he‘s playing test match cricket now. we say to him, i want you to get yourself fit to play ten games a year, then i‘m sure that something he would snatch your hand off for that situation. like i said, he enjoys going back to lancashire and contributing there. hejust lost the game. —— love the game. whilst he‘s still fit and strong, i think he‘s still fit and strong, i think he will continue to compete. that‘s all sport for now. today was the first chance after the summer recess for mps

to look at the brexit negotiations. the brexit secretary, david davis, has said there are what he called significant differences with the european commission over the so—called divorce bill britain will have to pay when it leaves the european union. here‘s our deputy political editorjon pienaar. what did you do this summer? david davis dry to get brexit oxidant high gear. it‘s been tough and colleagues like foreign secretary borisjohnson are demanding hardball with brussels. pity the officials, so much to do so little time. labour‘s eu policy is not at all clear. his deputy talks of staying inside the eu system. it‘s brexit spokesman doesn‘t go that far but labour is pledged to challenge ministers on parliament‘s role, judging brexit, the assembly‘s role, drew, workers‘ rights. the secretary of state for

exiting the european union. at times negotiations have been tough but it‘s clear we‘ve made concrete progress on many important issues. laughter britain was no newer —— was nowhere near the bill. the uk bus back approach is substantially more flexible and pragmatic than that of the year, it avoids unnecessary interruption from british business and consumers. labour wasn't buying it. you'll duel, which i had hoped had died a death since the election, could yet rise from the ashes. —— no deal, which was too many promises have been made to budge brexit which can't be kept. today labour has voted to vote against the bill, if and when they lose that thought, it

will be the start of something like parliamentary seat war. labour looks to win over the handful of tory rebels they need to pull ministers up rebels they need to pull ministers up short. it‘s just the start. the two big parties are in tune on respecting the referendum, no nothing else. how do you feel about progress on brexit? there is progress on brexit? there is progress on brexit? there is progress on brexit?! they will argue like hell, they will say, it‘s impossible, in the end they will agree they have to agree and it will be done. this demonstration was brexit to be stopped but many don‘t. a vision of economic uncertainty and political storms ahead now seems plain to see. there‘s been a leak about uk immigration plans in the guardian. 0ur political correspondent, eleanor garnier, has more. after we leave the eu, the uk will

have its own immigration policy, in control of its borders. the guardian had got hold of every document of the potential immigration legislation that we could end up with. i understand this is a document perhaps this or six version of this document and not the final document. —— the fifth or sixth. it's document. —— the fifth or sixth. it‘s not been signed by ministers. the general thrust of the document tallies with what we‘ve got a talking about publicly. it says that the government‘s approach to migration after brexit will be driven by a need to get net migration, the difference between those that survived and those that leave, down to sustainable levels. —— between those that leave. there are some that number is being floated. potentially giving low skilled migrantsjust

floated. potentially giving low skilled migrants just a two—year work product as opposed to a longer one for those in high skilled jobs, perhaps 3—5 year for them. the issue of families, it floats the idea that those eu citizens living here, in terms of who they can bring off, that could be tightened up to mean only those directly related, partners, spouses and children. that could be an unspecified income threshold for eu citizens. these are some of the actors in this document. the official word from the home 0ffice the official word from the home office is that it doesn‘t comment on lea ked office is that it doesn‘t comment on leaked documents. —— these are some of the figures in this document. russian president vladimir putin says further sanctions against north korea are useless — and that ramping up military preparations could lead to global catastrophe. it comes after the us said it would table a new un resolution on tougher sanctions in the wake of the latest test of a hydrogen bomb by the north. from seoul, yogita limaye reports. off the eastern coast

of south korea, today it was the navy‘s turn to show its strength. the commander of this fleet said they were training to bury the enemy at sea. south korea has held military drills for two days now in response to the north‘s nuclear test. pyongyang claims it successfully made a hydrogen bomb that can be fitted on to missiles capable of reaching america. at a un conference in geneva, north korea‘s ambassador was defiant. the recent self defence images by my country dprk, are a gift package addressed to the us. the us will receive more gift packages from my country as long as it relies on reckless provocations and futile attempts to put pressure on the dprk. those attempts include further squeezing of north korea‘s economy.

but some don‘t think that‘s a good idea. translation: the use of sanctions of any kind in this case is already useless and inefficient. as i told my colleagues yesterday, they will eat grass but they will not give up this programme if they do not feel safe. south korea doesn‘t feel safe either and so it‘s setting up this american anti—missile defence system, designed to shoot down enemy rockets. and now, president trump has said he is allowing japan and south korea to buy more sophisticated military equipment from the us. he‘s also agreed to remove limits on these south korean missiles, lifting restrictions on the weight of the war heads they can carry. it‘s this country, south korea, which has the most to lose if things go wrong. some people here might even still have family living up in the north. but they have heard these threats for so long now that they‘ve almost

become part of normal life here. and yet, things are a bit different now. translation: the experiment north korea did this time was much larger in scale and so it makes me nervous. this woman says she is worried but she doesn‘t believe war is going to break out. barely 50 kilometres from the border with north korea, people here live each day with the knowledge that they are vulnerable. but with a strong belief that the peace that has held for more than 60 years is not about to be broken. 0ur set has been dressed with a lot of toys because we are talking about lego and the toymaker is getting 1400 lego and the toymaker is getting 11100 jobs worldwide in the face of falling sales and profits. it employs around 18,000 people including 900 in the uk. lego says

it is business has become two complexes and needs a reset.|j it is business has become two complexes and needs a reset. i would not say it is too much to handle, there are companies that have grown bigger than we ever have is that i think we grew very fast and did not do it in the most appropriate ways and we are finding ourselves with perhaps a bit much bureaucracy and too many layers in the organisation and we lose a bit of touch on the market site. i think there is an opportunity for us to strengthen the way we launch our product and be more successful with that and that is important because, as you know, we have grown a lot and penetrated markets are not so to continue to grow we need to sharpen our game. the head of lego. gary grant is the fount of the toy shop chain the entertainer and he has bought some products which might explain a bit the lego story. basically the first half of the year they have not been up half of the year they have not been up to scratch. the first half of the

year is only about 30 to 40% of the business because it is back ended towards christmas and many of the strong lego products coming out are in the second half of the year. we have a new lego film coming out. tell me about the first half the year. what are young kids playing with? lego is only 596 down. you have to remember they have had a phenomenal decade and have been extremely strong. it might be a small correction in the market but what we have experienced so far this year is crazes. we have had frigid spinners and the ultimate one being the rubik‘s cube. spinners and the ultimate one being the rubik 's cube. it is back! it is selling really well. the playground crazes have been successful. and lego have not been able to make a version of a craze that works for them in this first period of the year? the best selling toy in the

industry is probably the lego figures and they are one of the biggest sellers. we have the ninjago figures out and the latest series coming out so they are doing their best but 5% down, they are the number one toymaker in the uk and probably around the world. they are losing 900 people, firing 11100 overall. they are reducing their workforce. but their products are still fantastic quality and selling extremely well. just not as strong as last year. you are putting a nice gloss on it! but let‘s talk about the second half. that is all to play for. the toy industry takes about 50% of its annual turnover in the last 12 weeks, so biased towards christmas so if you look at the products and films coming out in the second half, we have the opportunity of lego clawing back the slow decline. we have the ninjago film

coming out in october your. we have the star wars movie in december and lego sell 50% of all star wars products and toys around the world. 50%? wow. it is to do with movie franchises, that is what going to help them? movies to drive the toy industry so cars three is doing very well. it is also when children get behind something like the digit spinners. something selling well at the moment are the fingerlings which are little monkeys that grip on your fingers. they are in high demand. another thing not made by lego, we have just launched in the another thing not made by lego, we havejust launched in the uk sellotape with pips on so you can put lego up the wall and across the ceiling! you can play lego upside

down if you want to. if you're that way inclined! you are infectious with your enthusiasm. way inclined! you are infectious with your enthusiasmlj way inclined! you are infectious with your enthusiasm. i am toys through and through, it is like a stick of rock! carrie grant, good to see you. —— gary grant. no playing about with the weather despite all these things because it is pretty horrible if you are in the caribbean. good evening, it looks like hurricane will take centre stage over the next few days. the category five hurricane is the strongest we can getand five hurricane is the strongest we can get and it looks likely to make la ndfall towards can get and it looks likely to make landfall towards the leeward islands on the early hours of wednesday morning local time. we will keep you updated. closer to home, the rain eases from the south—east corner, a breezy night and fresher with a chilly start to wednesday morning. single figures in rural spots. but with the breed it will continue to drive in more cloud on the west coast with some showers north and

west. further inland, some sunshine and temperatures likely to get up to 20 degrees. into thursday it looks likely that more low pressure will move in from the atlantic and you can see it here, bringing strengthening winds and heavy rain eventually into scotland and northern ireland. drier further south. hello. this is bbc news. the headlines... four serving members of the british army, have been arrested on suspicion of preparing acts of terrorism. the men, who are all aged between 22 and 32, are alleged to belong to the banned neo—nazi group, national action. a serious case review into the death of 21—month—old ayeeshia jane smith, murdered by her mother three years ago, has found social workers missed signs of danger and showed a lack of professional curiosity. south korea puts on a show of strength after pyongyang‘s

latest missile test. however russia‘s president putin says increasing military tensions threaten a global catastrophe. us weather forecasters say hurricane irma, currently heading for the caribbean, is extremely dangerous. the storm is due to make landfall in antigua in the next 12 hours, and winds have already reached a speed of 180 miles an hour. scotland‘s first minister has set out her party‘s programme for government for the coming year. nicola sturgeon placed education and health reform at the top of the agenda, and says she‘ll lift the 1% cap on public sector pay rises. she called the plans "fresh, bold and ambitious," but was accused by the leader of the conservatives in scotland, ruth davidson, of "over—promising and under—delivering". 0ur scotland editor, sarah smith, reports from holyrood. nicola sturgeon has got her hands full and she wants

all of us to know it. she promised to refresh her policies after a disappointing general election result and now she wants to seize back the political initiative with what she calls a bold and ambitious programme for government. at it heart is this ambition — to make our country the best place in the world to grow up and be educated. the best place to live, work, visit and do business. the best place to be cared for in times of sickness, need or vulnerability, and the best place to grow old. the first minister announced significant government investment in high—tech manufacturing and financial technology, and she was getting her own lesson today in digital skills. but it‘s education that will be the biggest test for the snp. faced with falling standards in scottish schools, they plan to give headteachers more powers and responsibilities. teachers, along with nurses and police officers, will be among thousands of workers getting a higher pay rise next year

as scotland is scrapping the 1% public sector pay cap. no details on how that might be paid for yet, but a strong hint — higher income taxes may follow. the opposition say the snp have to earn back the trust of the scottish electorate. they must be frank about the huge challenges that scotland faces and not seek as its first response to bury bad news and pretend it doesn‘t exist. given what we know of this government, we will wait to see whether today‘s warm words are backed up by action. but the government should know this — after this last year, it is on probation with the people of scotland. it is time to change tack and it is time to deliver. the scottish parliament will certainly be busy, with 16 new bills announced today, including the creation of a national investment bank for scotland, free personal care for under—65s suffering from dementia, a deposit return scheme for plastic bottles, and pardons for men convicted of same—sex offences

which are now legal. the scottish government also want to go further, faster with electric cars, promising a huge expansion of car charging facilities and plans to phase out new petrol vehicles by 2032, eight years ahead of the uk target. but remember, as a minority government, the snp need the support of other parties if they are to drive ahead these plans for the next year. sarah smith, bbc news, edinburgh. barack 0bama has criticised president trump‘s decision to scrap a policy that protects young undocumented migrants in the united states from deportation. the former president described it as "wrong," "self—defeating" and "cruel." the deferred action for childhood arrivals programme protects some 800,000 people, known as "dreamers", from deportation by giving them work and study permits. this was how the announcement was made by the attorney general, jeff sessions, earlier today. if we were to keep the 0bama administration‘s executive amnesty

policy, the likeliest outcome is that it would, too, be enjoined, just as was dapa. the department ofjustice has advised the president and the department of homeland security that the department of homeland security should begin an orderly, lawfulwind—down, including the cancellation of the memo that authorised this programme. acting secretary duke has chosen appropriately to initiate a wind—down process. this will enable the department of homeland security to conduct an orderly change and fulfil the desire of this administration to create a time period for congress to act should it so choose. we firmly believe this is the responsible path. simply put, if we are to further our goal of strengthening the constitutional order and the rule of law in america, the department ofjustice cannot defend this overreach. the un is warning of a risk

of ethnic cleansing in myanmar, after a dramatic increase in the number of rohinghya muslims fleeing to neighbouring bangladesh. the rohingyas are a minority group in the buddhist—dominated myanmar. fighting in rakhine state has left hundreds dead, with the un saying 35,000 people have crossed the border into bangladesh in the last day alone. that brings the total seeking refuge to more than 123,000 in the last 11 days. 0ur correspondent sanjoy majumder reports. desperation is what is driving the rohingya refugees. and bangladesh, which has taken them in, is being overwhelmed by the sheer numbers that are surging in. a truck has backed up to take all these refugees to the nearest relief camp. you can just see the chaos as they are all desperate to get on board.

it is a chance for them to get somewhere where they will be safe and where they can rest. they are getting a sense now that things are slowly spinning out of control. soldiers try to bring in a sense of order. but the refugees are weak, dehydrated and disorientated after days on the road. the rohingyas are often described as the worst persecuted minority — the buddhist majority myanmar has denied them citizenship despite living there for centuries. now they have been driven out, their villages burned, hundreds killed, in a wave of religious violence. translation: people are either being shot or burnt alive in their homes. we had to flee for our lives. they are making sure that no muslims are left there. so they fled, carrying with them whatever they could salvage from their wrecked homes.

local volunteers meet them as they arrive, handing out packets of cooked rice and meat. their first proper meal in days. but with so many refugees coming here, space is running out. existing camps are stretched beyond capacity. new ones are being built by the hour — open fields and hilltops have now become huge settlements. and the conditions are basic. this pit filled with rainwater is serving as the water supply. these new arrivals are scattered in different locations, local villages, makeshift sites and the two existing refugees sites is where the un works. those camps are reaching saturation point and in one of them the population has more than doubled. bangladesh is one of the world‘s most densely populated nations and now it has to somehow find space for all the rohingyas who are pouring in. un secretary general antonio

guterres says a plan must be put in place to give the rohingyas nationality or legal status. many people have lost their lives trying to flee the violence. and the grievances and resulting plight of the rohingya have festered for far too long. it is becoming an undeniable factor in destabilisation in the region. i have officially written to the president of the security council to express my concern and propose various steps to end the violence and address the underlying causes of the crisis. the international community must undertake concerted efforts to prevent any further escalation and to seek a realistic solution. the authorities in myanmar must take determined action to put an end to this vicious cycle of violence

and provide security and assistance to all of those in need. i urge them to ensure unhindered humanitarian access for life—saving operations. at the same time it is no longer possible to delay an effective action plan to address the root causes of the crisis. it will be crucial to give the muslims in the area either nationality or, at least for now, a legal status which allows them a normal life, including freedom of movement and access to labour markets, education and health services. the un secretary general speaking. princes william and harry have visited a new centre that is offering advice and counselling to families affected by the grenfell disaster. they met members of the community and volunteers in north kensington at the support—li—grenfell community hub. at least 80 people are thought to have died in the fire at grenfell tower back injune.

the national children‘s charity, place 2be, is one of the organisations involved in the hub. the charity‘s clinical director told us about the services they‘ll be providing. 0ur charity works in schools so we work with children, young people and their families, and we support teachers as well. so it is one—to—one counsel and support, so it‘s a place to talk, talk about what their experience has been, and we also do group work. we will also be supplying trauma—focused cbt for children who perhaps are more affected by the tragedy. and we will be working with the other charities here is to see how we can reach out to the community. the headlines on bbc news... four serving members of the army have been arrested on suspicion of terror offences, and belonging to a banned neo—nazi group. a serious case review into the murder of 21—month—old ayeeshia—jayne smith in staffordshire three years ago says social workers "missed danger signs". president putin has warned

of a "global catastrophe" if military tensions continue to increase on the korean peninsula. an update on the market numbers for you. the ftse100 was down today. and in new york the dowjones and a stack are both down. —— and nasdaq. the leading british public relations firm, bell pottinger, has been thrown out of the industry‘s trade body because of a campaign which stoked racial tensions in south africa. an independent report found that bell pottinger had spread misleading information. the company, whose chief executive resigned over the weekend, says it accepts that lessons do need to be learned. 0ur media editor amol rajan reports. post—apartheid south africa was meant to be the rainbow nation. but over 25 years, one family has

acquired a degree of power and influence that critics say is anything but democratic. the three gupta brothers own a conglomerate with interest from mining the media. with close links to jacob zuma, they are accused of rampant corruption, which they deny. but with a reputation to salvage, they gave the british pr firm bell pottinger a call. for several months, bell pottinger ran a disinformation campaign stoking racial hatred, and targeting hostile journalists. all the journalists who were writing about state capture who were interested in this new crony network, really, you could see almost daily there would be, largely driven on twitter and social media, quite insulting images of them made. and only now do you understand that it was actually a constructed campaign. the scandal has claimed the scalp

of several staff at the firm including partner victoria geoghegan and ceo james henderson. now the trade body that represents britain‘s pr industry has chucked out bell pottinger. it is the harshest penalty available to us and the harshest we have ever imposed on members and that reflects the fact that it was the worst piece of pr work that i have seen in ten years. the pr industry is overwhelmingly professional, bell pottinger neither of those. last night, the former adviser to margaret thatcher who founded the firm but left after falling out with mr henderson said the company was finished. i think that it probably is getting near the end, yes. you can try and rescue it but it will not be very successful. this scandal has sent shock waves through the british pr industry and also young democracy of south africa. the prca is a trade body rather than a regulator and when some very rich individuals or families are prepared to spend huge sums to burnish their reputation,

frankly, some pr firms like bell pottinger in london will take the money. and a ticking—off and temporary ban from a trade association is not going to change that. but for opponents of president zuma, this is not so much about the state of pr as the state of south africa. 0ne family‘s grip on power is tightening, even as the reputation of their pr advisers is now in the gutter. a french magazine has been ordered to pay £90,000 pounds in damages to the duke and duchess of cambridge after publishing topless photos of kate while on holiday in provence five years ago. they filed a criminal complaint against ‘closer‘ magazine for invasion of privacy. lucy williamson reports from paris. on one side of the channel today, there was barely a front—page without her — the duchess of cambridge, expecting her third child. her private life a cause for media interest, national comment, public celebration. but when does interest become intrusion? in the paris suburbs today,

judges ruled that french celebrity magazine closer did invade her privacy by publishing topless photos of the duchess on holiday. the pictures were taken with a telephoto lens while the couple were sunbathing on the balcony of a private villa. the magazine editor and chief executive were each fined 115,000 euros — the maximum penalty, said the royals‘ lawyer. c‘est le montant maximum prevu par la loi. is that unusual? yes, absolutely. the royal couple were also awarded 100,000 euros in damages. a high figure for france, but far smaller than the 1.5 million euros requested by the couple. the lawyer for closer described the amount requested as ‘extravagant‘ and said the private lives of the royal family were a matter of public interest. translation: the photos showed a couple in love. and i'll remind you that in the case of the duke's parents,

we were led to believe that they adored each other by being given official photographs and it wasn't the reality. here, at least, the photos aren't offensive and show that they love each other. it's in the public interest to know that. the duke of cambridge said the clandestine way the photographs were taken had been particularly shocking and all the more painful given the way his mother diana, had died here in paris, pursued by paparazzi. in a statement after today‘s ruling, kensington palace described the photographs as "a serious breach of privacy" and said the couple "wished to make the point strongly that this kind of unjustified intrusion should not happen". last week, william went to view tributes laid to princess diana on the 20th anniversary of her death. having watched the media make both hero and hostage of his mother, the duke of cambridge seems determined to stop the same thing happening to his wife. lucy williamson, bbc news, paris. last year 29 sperm whales became

stranded on beaches in the uk and elsewhere in europe. and it puzzled scientists because the mammals were all young and healthy. now they think the whales may have been victims of large solar storms, which played havoc with their navigational abilities, as our environment correspondent, matt mcgrath, explains. crowds gathered at hunstanton, on the coast of norfolk, in february 2016, to see this ocean giant washed up on a popular tourist beach. all around the north sea, more than two dozen other sperm whales were found stranded in the first two months of last year. scientists were extremely puzzled — the creatures were young, healthy and generally disease—free. now it‘s thought the northern lights may have played a role in the losses. the aurora are the visible evidence of large solar storms, which distort the earth‘s magnetic field. this can cause species that rely on that field

for navigation, like sperm whales, to lose their way. after big solar storms in december 2015, scientists say the confused creatures swam into the shallow north sea and beached themselves, trying to find a way out. researchers at london zoo autopsied a number of the whales stranded on british shores. we know that sperm whales are stranded around the north sea for many, many years historically and it‘s certainly a possible factor in this instance that we have these whales that got into the north sea for an unknown reason and then once they are in there, they cannot find their way out and they become so disorientated, dehydrated and then strand. so that‘s what happened in last year‘s events. why did they end up there in the first place? to be honest, i think we will never know. there is too much uncertainty around the events in this instance in terms of where they were, where they came from, and so on. and so i think we will really never know what really caused last year‘s events. proving the impact of geomagnetic storms on the strandings of sperm whales may well be impossible, however researchers here at london zoo and a team at nasa

are actively investigating the impact of solar activities on the strandings of species around the world. the results in that study are due in the next month or so. that might shed some definitive light on the role of solar storms on species. matt mcgrath, bbc news. now time for a look at the weather. good evening, hurricane irma looks set to take centre stage in the next few days, now a category five hurricane, the most powerful we can see. you can make out the eye on this picture as it continues to strengthen and move towards the leeward islands, expected to make land —— landfall in and take on wednesday morning. we could see gusts of wind in excess of 220 mph, excessive volumes of rain and high storm surge, as much as 11 feet high and that could cause devastating

flooding. closer to home, we have seen some rain which has brought some localised flooding but going through the day it started to ease and turned showery. as you can see from this picture there was some surface water, some localised flooding in parts of cumbria for a time. through the night the weather front continues to weaken and it will push south and east and behind its breezy conditions, a scattering of showers in the north and west but that will introduced fresh air from the west and not quite as sultry to start wednesday morning. in role spots we could have temperatures in single figures. a chilly start but relatively quiet for many with some sunny spells coming through. the breeze is strongest in the west, some showers in north—west scotland in particular. top temperatures down on what we have seen so far this

week, highs of 14—20d. into thursday, signs of something more significant developing in the far north and west with some rain pushing into scotland and northern ireland, some a bit heavy. further south, largely quiet, a bit more cloud around, highs of 30—20d but this wet weather in the north west will sweep across the country moving into friday which means there is the potential for some into friday which means there is the potentialfor some rain for all into friday which means there is the potential for some rain for all of us. some of that could linger in southern england for a time on friday to leaving blustery showers in its wake but the start of the weekend at the moment looks a bit quieter with highs of 19 degrees. hello, i‘m ros atkins, this is 0utside source. the trumpet meditation has done as it said it would. it‘s announced plans to stop a scheme that allowed young immigrants not to be to go to. the open—ended circumvention of immigration laws was an unconstitutional exercise of authority by the executive branch.
