we'll have the best from this year's stirling prize. good morning and welcome to bbc news. theresa may's most senior minister, damian green, has angrily denied a claim that pornography was found on a computer when police raided his westminster office nine years ago. mr green is currently being investigated for alleged inappropriate behaviour towards a female tory activist, a charge which he denies. among the other new allegations to appear in today's papers is one from a journalist who says sir michael fallon once tried to kiss her. our political correspondent iain watson reports. the allegations in the times that pornography was found on a computer in damian green's office dates from 2008. this was during a controversial enquiry into home office

leaks which briefly led to mr green's arrest. as theresa may's second—in—command she would not want to lose him from the cabinet and he has responded robustly to the allegation. in a statement he said that the story was completely untrue and he called it a disreputable political smear. he added that the police have never suggested to him that improper material was found on his parliamentary computer. in turn he accuses the officer in charge of the investigation nine years ago, bob quick, of breaching his duty to keep the details ofan investigation confidential. this weekend, allegations of improper behaviour in and around

westminster have been filling the front pages. and even when ministers resign, that is rarely the end of the story. more allegations have emerged about the past behaviour of sir michael fallon. in the observer, journalist jane merrick said she informed downing street of an incident in 2003. friends of sir michael fallon have not denied the allegation. some of them believe that his ministerial career ended because he could not guarantee there would be no further revelations. iain watson, bbc news. susana mendonca, our political correspondent ,joins me. damian green is already being investigated, we understand the tories will be investigated, it is difficult for theresa may because damian green is one of her closest allies in the government and of course she's already lost sir michael fallon. so these issues are significant. but if you look at the papers in the last few days there's been this continuous drip, drip,

drip, new names each today for example we've got dan poulter, there's an allegation against him in there's an allegation against him in the times. downing street have said they are referring him to the new disciplinary committee they have set up. it's not just disciplinary committee they have set up. it's notjust the conservatives, there's an allegation from a labour msp ina there's an allegation from a labour msp in a scottish parliament saying she was sexually assaulted by a labour member and the party didn't deal with that well enough. labour have come in for criticism on that issue, the happy several women, one who says she was raped by a member of the party and when she went to a senior labourfigure of the party and when she went to a senior labour figure she was not given the right advice —— there have been several women. she was told not to say anything because it could damage her if she did. that was put to the party today, on the andrew marr show inspector dawn butler who is the women and equality ‘s shadow secretary spoke about how this kind of thing should not happen and she

had an apology for ms bailey. i think ms bailey has gone through a traumatic experience and what has happened to her and the fact that she felt she was not able to get anyone to listen to her... she was told not to pursue this by the labour party. this is why, andrew, there needs to be a thorough investigation and this is whyjeremy corbyn has called for a renowned established qc to investigate and respond urgently. i am really sorry about what happened to bex and she has been very brave but it shouldn't be the case that you have to be brave to come forward. women don't have to be brave, itjust has to be dealt with. susana, you mentioned the allegation about dan poulter. this seems to be

one mp saying that they tried to raise this and it wasn't acted upon so now raise this and it wasn't acted upon so now they've published an allegation about one of their colleagues. what does that say about the state of affairs in the party and the effectiveness or otherwise of its whopping operation. —— whipping operation. it has been questioned whether the party is putting out information early enough. there has been criticism that perhaps i had been previous allegations made, the suggestion that things might not be put out there, and kept secret in order, this was something that was put to amber rudd earlier, she has denied

that, she says she was in the whips office is off for some time and there is no black book, no suggestion that loyalty will be forced further down the line.|j spent spent a year in the whips office and there was no black book, i'io office and there was no black book, no influence going on, it was about getting government business too. that is the whips office. having said that i recognise there is an important change that needs to take place at westminster. it is notjust westminster, it is other workplaces as well. i think they should total candour about these, rumours or allegations, if there are, deal with them ina allegations, if there are, deal with them in a transparent way so that they don't happen again. amber rudd, the home secretary, there. the government very keen to put a line under this and make it clear that they are taking action. home affairs correspondent danny

shaw has made contact with bob quick, the former metropolitan police officer accused by damian green of leaking the story about the allegation of pornography found on a computer in damian green's office, not necessarily his own computer. bob quick says he stands by his account of what was found on the computer. he said the appointment was made before he was contacted by the newspaper, the statement was the original one he had made, forgive me, ijumped a part of this. he made an appointment to see that whitehall officials were conducting allegation, if you make that appointment raises concerns about the information he had about mr green, he said this was before the newspaper contacted him and said they had a copy of his draft statement made developers and inquiry and to the police, relations between police officers and journalists, he said the statement

was the original one he made and that was no intention to discredit damian green, he said he bore no malice towards mr green, went to report the material because no one expected to find it. a rather long winded way of pointing out that this has led to an extraordinary exchange of allegations between the first secretary of state, the most senior figure except for the prime minister, and a former senior metropolitan police officer. damian green was basically saying that mr quick was an unreliable source, and mrquick quick was an unreliable source, and mr quick says that he doesn't consider himself an unreliable source. this makes things much more difficult the damian green. he is facing a cabinet office investigation tomorrow and this is in part due to other allegations made about him by a journalist. but this is sealed off the pornography

will also be discussed. damian green says he was never told about there being pornography on any office computers in his office at the time. he claims this is untrue and was politically motivated. the intervention by mr quick makes things more difficult for him. we should just say that in none of these comments does bob quick suggest that mr green was or wasn't made aware of it. this will be for the inquiry to establish. another source has told the bbc and was his understanding that the pornography was found on mr green's computer in a shared office space so there is debate about who was using the computer. we don't know if it was for his use of other people's use and we don't even know if it was in his office. all of this no doubt will form part of this investigation. tomorrowjeremy corbyn, theresa may under the party

leaders at westminster are supposed to sit down together and thrash out some reassuring, reliable new system which people are concerned the behaviour of their boss or perhaps a colleague could go to. what other‘s chances of that being agreed?” think it will be agreed because there's such a sense of opinion across the parties that they need to do something about this. they all tarnished by it. it's about human behaviour, power and patronage and all that. all the parties have had people coming forward saying that they were either harassed or sexually assaulted. it ranges across the board. the problem in westminster is that it isn't like a company where you have an hr department where you could go if you are harassed, there isn't a proper route by which you can take your grievance. what they want is a westminster— wide independent grievance root of some description, there will also be talk about their

individual code of conduct. the tories introduced one on friday with a hotline that people can ring, labour have their own plans for that and the lib dems as well. but what they really want is a westminster —based one that would be independent of parties where people could go to because part of the problem is that people don't want to sully the name of their party. they can be quite tribal... and a way of persuading people to let an allegation life. look at bex bailey, the suggestion that it could have been damaging not just to herbert to the party, that would disappear if you had this system that was independent of the parties. typhoon damrey, we will be interested to see what comes out of that meeting. thank you very much. —— susana, we will be interested. social media companies must do more to stop child sexual exploitation, the home secretary has said, as new government figures show a rise in indecent images

of children being reported to the police. writing in the sun on sunday, amber rudd said that companies have a "moral duty" to go "further and faster" in tackling abuse. technology firms insist they're doing their utmost to keep their young users safe. police in london have arrested a bite of 16 on suspicion of grievous bodily harm after two acid attacks last week, to delivery riders on mopeds were both attacked with corrosive substances, one in totte n ha m , corrosive substances, one in tottenham, a 14—year—old boy arrested on friday has been released under investigation. the royal college of psychiatrists says it's found that the number of unfilled consultant posts in england has doubled in the past four years. the college says the shortage is alarming, and it has led to increased waiting times and lower standards of care, as ben ando reports. good health, it is said, is a matter for both body and mind. but some with mental health difficulties have to wait months to see a consultant psychiatrist. that, according to figures from the royal college of psychiatrists, is because in england one in ten of those jobs are not filled. it is a scandal that

if you need to see a consultant psychiatrist you can't. if you had cancer you would see a cancer specialist quite quickly, within a couple of weeks. if you needed an operation you would see a surgeon. it is not right that people with mental health problems can not go to see a psychiatrist when they need one. in wales, the number of unfilled consultant psychiatric posts stands at 9%, in scotland it's marginally better at 6%, while in northern ireland, just 2% ofjobs are vacant. the department of health says it knows it needs more psychiatrists, especially in the light of an increase in demand for mental health services. that is why it is expanding doctors' training places by 25%. it says that is the largest single increase ever. but training a psychiatrist to consultant level takes over a decade. while mental illness is moving up

the health agenda, it will be some time before the supply of psychiatrists can match the increasing demands. ben ando, bbc news. donald trump has arrived injapan, the first stop on what will be the longest tour of asia by an american president for a generation. in an address to us and japanese troops at an airbase near tokyo, mr trump praised the alliance with japan. the tour is set to be dominated by the crisis over north korea's nuclear programme. sophia tran—thomson has the latest. touched down in tokyo. after flying in an air force one from hawaii, the president and the first lady met with us troops stationed in the region. much to the delight of the greeting party, the president gratefully accepted his official military gift. i like this better! you can have myjacket. in an effort to strengthen ties, the tour of asia will be the longest an american president has attempted in a quarter of a century. today nations that

her experiences were even worse. this conversation grew into something, we thought, we want to create change and make sure it doesn't happen it to anyone in our industry, so in three weeks we have set it up. i cannot believe how much these women can do, they are the most extraordinary women, there are about 40 of them, some have been more than others and is growing all the time. women journalists. yes, although we also have support from politicians, sadiq khan and 20 female mps have backed us from the off because we wanted some parliamentary support because there's a lot of attention going on on this at the moment. in the past people would be sharing information with one another... yes, as to who

is not safe to get into a taxi with, things like that. the jungle telegraph. how long have you felt uncomfortable with the way it operates or have you always felt it since you arrived. i became a journalist aged 22 and began as a business journalist. what struck me is, when you are very young, you often, i was on these fixed term contracts, you are vulnerable in many ways. you don't want to be difficult. so you are vulnerable to things happening around you. all forms of bullying. you are in a weak position, i suppose the problem with westminster and journalism is that they are informal. you meet a lot of people in the pub. i don't want to stop people being able to meet in pubs and bars, but that deform and ice is the relationship. and a lot of journalism ice is the relationship. and a lot ofjournalism and ice is the relationship. and a lot of journalism and politics ice is the relationship. and a lot ofjournalism and politics is still based on patronage, older people helping out younger people. as a

female journalist, you see, helping out younger people. as a femalejournalist, you see, this male journalist is helping a young man, maybe i could e—mail him and ask about my career and he might help me as well. most of the time thatis help me as well. most of the time that is fine, he could help you or not, because most of those positions are still held by men, those other people your approach. sometimes when a woman does that or some young men as well because that does happen, there is an expectation of something else. and you think, why would you assume that because i met you for a drink. i think perhaps because it is informal that happens more. and these are both industries with massive power imbalances. how much power do you have as an intern, or asa power do you have as an intern, or as a junior research in parliament, very little. and presumably that problem is replicated across other industries like broadcasting, which is one that is allied to journalism,

yet increasingly the experiences of people working on short—term contracts, like the gig economy the different employers, will make it that much harderfor different employers, will make it that much harder for people to flag up that much harder for people to flag up concerns or say, i think this behaviour is out of line because you may not be called back next week. that is something we are looking at in second source, we want to look at industries with the gig economy because that has taken the power away from the worker and the worker ‘s ability to complain or say anything. injournalism ‘s ability to complain or say anything. in journalism if ‘s ability to complain or say anything. injournalism if you are ‘s ability to complain or say anything. in journalism if you are a freelancer you might have a small number of editors who can just turn the tap off and that's all your work dried up. so that does leave you vulnerable. parliament, the same, you've got one employer, the mp, and if you pick up a stink, quite justifiably, that is you gone. with

journalism, i have been told, a story about a woman who was working shifts, her editor fell in love with her, he said, completely inappropriate relationship, he was married, and of course she lost the shifts. and she has no room to complain because they were only very informal. and it is her it is his problem, not a problem. and the fact that it damages her career is what we wa nt that it damages her career is what we want to talk about, we want this to bea we want to talk about, we want this to be a network so we can help each other because we can see that these things happen. rosamund urwin, evening standard reporter and co—founder of second source, thank you. we hope to hear more about your organisation in the coming weeks and months, thank you. the heir to the throne in saudi arabia has overseen a major purge in the country's leadership. eleven princes, four current ministers and dozens of former ministers have been detained.

crown prince mohammed bin salman is the head of a newly—established anti—corruption committee — and he appears to have sidelined a number of powerful figures. our security correspondent frank gardner reports. saudi arabia has been shaken by two shocks within hours of each other, first, a ballistic missile fired by rebels in yemen reportedly reached the capital riyadh before they were shot down. this is a big step, they are using ballistic missiles, long—range missiles, likely from iraq to put likely from iran to put pressure on the saudi arabian government which has been bombarding yemen for years now. next in an unrelated move came the news that several prominent princes including serving ministers had been detained in a sweeping anti—corruption purge led by the crown prince mohammed bin salman. the heir to the throne has been moving fast to consolidate his growing power while spearheading a modern reform programme. this move will now give him nominal control of all the country's security forces but at the same time the removal from office of several well known figures is sure to upset some more

conservative elements. saudi arabia is a deeply tribal society and not used to sudden change. it's currently conducting a war in yemen, another against so—called islamic state and a boycott of qatar. what is clear is that the mohammed bin salman regime is struggling very much. he's trying to consolidate power and this attack on the capital is an embarrassment, to say the least. these are risky times in the desert kingdom. frank gardner, bbc news. hello, still some showers, those in the midlands will gradually fade and we will see a few showers towards the north sea coasts and eastern england but for most people are
