there have been multiple fatalities. 77 people have been taken to hospital. images from the scene of to show format carriages left the track, one upside down on the road. the local sheriff said that no motorists have been killed. it was the height of the rush—hour on the busy i—5 motorway, and the train was reportedly travelling at more than 80 mph. the local sheriff says it came off the rails near the bridge at 7:40 in the morning, smashing onto cars and at least one lorry on the road below. multiple agencies are responding. when we got to the scene, it was obvious that there were some fatalities and there were a lot of injuries, and some people were able to get off the train. the train was being operated by amtrak, the major us rail passenger company. it was travelling from seattle in washington state to portland in oregon, and amtrak say there were approximately 78 passengers and five crewmembers on board. in a statement, the firm said it was aware of the incident but

gave few other details. passengers spoke of a rocking and creaking noise as the train rounded a bend, followed by crushing and screening. —— crashing and screaming. to escape, said one survivor, they had to smash windows as the doors could not be opened. the governor of washington thanked the emergency services for their swift response and urged americans to pray for everyone on board. james cook, bbc news, los angeles. earlier i spoke to a tv reporter for ita earlier i spoke to a tv reporter for it a news company in seattle. he says that this is the day marking the first day of the new train service between seattle and portland. he said that he avoided injury when he was on the same train because he alighted at an earlier station. it has been a big deal that has been spoken about four weeks. it's been in the works from within a decade and i was on board the train that derailed. i got off ten minutes

before and it's just been shocking, the many people that we spoke with on board the train, among the dead and injured. it has been difficult process. amtrak, what they've done is have several miles of upgraded rail service, allowing them to add more routes. the added a 60 train —— a 6am train, today being the first day for it. we were on the train to broadcast from the very first right and it so happens that this ride led toa number of and it so happens that this ride led to a number of fraternities. you had a lucky escape. you sound to be in some state of shock yourself., yeah,

just after process. i am trying to... i'm looking at the images, i've been checking for about four hours. —— shaking for our part. these are the people we were talking with this morning, wonderful people, just days before christmas and the holidays, many people have the week off, some people computers in the working community and heading to work. —— some people commuters. really excited about the new rail service, some of them, theyjust wa nted service, some of them, theyjust wanted to be part of history. it has gone shockingly wrong and a number of agencies have to answer as to what has happened. there are a lot of questions as a train is derailed over the busiest interstate in washington. you clearly have pick yourself up and carried on with the job of reporting. i suppose a lot of

focus is on the fact that this was the first day for this new passenger service. yes, a lot of questions, they opened it is stationed about 20 miles from here, allowing them to expand their abilities from one worried. —— they opened a train station about 20 miles. julie —— uk to speculate. was it part of the newly renovated train track? that they just put in? newly renovated train track? that theyjust put in? we don't know yet. we have asked many law and —— law—enforcement officials about that. how fast was this train travelling? we look at a speed limit sign here 30 mph, so we will see was a factor as well. one of the most extraordinary things as that a p pa re ntly extraordinary things as that apparently no motorists have been

harmed by what happened. that is quite incredible. considering this is the busiest highway in the state of washington. it's amazing that no motorists were hurt. i hope and pray for those good people, they were good people, you can tell by talking to them this morning. i hope the best outcome for them. we will find out how this story and many others are covered in tomorrow's front pages at 10:1i0pm in the papers. an official report into the case of an iranian refugee who was murdered in bristol has concluded there was institutional racism on the part of the authorities who dealt with him. bijan ebrahimi was killed by a neighbour in the summer of 2013, and his body set alight. today's report, by the safer bristol partnership, found that avon and somerset police and bristol city council repeatedly sided with those who had

abused him over a period of years. but while the report found evidence of collective failure, it said that individuals were not intentionally racist. jon kay reports. he came to britain for safety, but bijan ebrahimi was brutally beaten to death and his body set on fire. don't you dare take pictures of me, all right?! this is the neighbour who killed him — lee james, now serving life for murder. but this was not the first attack. today's report says, time and time again, at different addresses over several years, bijan alleged he'd been attacked by a number of different people. but this report says he was treated as a nuisance by the authorities in bristol, with police and council staff often siding with his alleged abusers, rather than helping him. absolutely shocking

and disgusting... now, bijan‘s sisters have been told there was a collective failure by avon and somerset police and bristol city council, which amounted to institutional racism, a phrase used nearly 20 years ago in the stephen lawrence inquiry. these are not the words that we should hear this day and age. you don't want to see, you don't want to hear any more about this, it's been dealt with so many times before, and seeing it is happening again is truly shocking. we are very angry, as my sister said, and it's very shocking and upsetting as a family. today's report says no individual members of staff here at bristol city council, or at avon and somerset police, were intentionally racist themselves, but it says both organisations had an ingrained view of bijan ebrahimi which affected the way they treated him and that he didn't get the support or the level of service that he should have received. the report says, as an iranian man, bijan was put at a disadvantage

because the way the authorities dealt with him was discriminatory. that is why, it concludes, there was institutional racism. it's a word that's rarely used, it's a finding that's rarely found, because one would hope that institutional racism is not a common problem. but the family's concern, in fact, is that it is much more common than it is found. last year, two members of police staff were jailed for misconduct. the force apologised to the ebrahimi family then and, along with the city council, has now accepted today's report in full. they say lessons have been learnt. bijan‘s death won't be in vain, and it will be the basis of this authority, and i'm sure many institutions around the city, having a look at what they do and the way they do it. nearly five years after he was killed here, bijan ebrahimi's family say his voice has now finally been heard. jon kay, bbc news, bristol.

theresa may says there's no place for threats of violence and intimidation against mps. she made the comments after it emerged that several conservative mps have received dozens of abusive emails and tweets because of their views on brexit. she made her comments in the commons earlier. we are dealing with questions of great significance to our country's fridge so it is natural that there are many strongly held views on all sides of this chamber. —— to our country's future. there can never be a place for these threats of violence and intimidation against some members that we have seen in recent days. our politics must be better than that. jeremy corbyn said

that threats and intimidation have no place in british politics. the daily mail which previously branded the judiciary as enemies of the people is now whipping up hatred against backbench rebel mps. threats and intimidation have no place in out and intimidation have no place in our politics. and the truth of it is... and the truth of it is mr speaker its division and infighting in on cabinets and their reliance on the dup that makes them a week. our political correspondent vicki young is in westminsterfor us. there is a feeling that newspaper headlines about conservative backbenchers who voted against the government have contributed to this level of abuse. mps from across the political spectrum have talked about

the abuse they've got. this issue has been raised again because last week the government was defeated over the issue of brexit in the commons. it was a crunch board, if you like. the government was defeated because a number of tory mps defeated because a number of tory m ps voted defeated because a number of tory mps voted against the government. —— ca ke mps voted against the government. —— cake roger vote. it is these mps that have pulled the bbc that they have received violent threats, e—mails containing death threats, they've been accused of treachery. —— that have told the bbc. they have said that they have got these e—mails, text messages and even a voice mail because of their particular views on brexit. the three mps that have spoken to the bbc anna soubry, nicky morgan and dominic grieve, the mp that led the group of mps against the government. they have handed the information to the police. one of the e—mails so

that you should hang for your crimes. a second set, hope you live your life looking over your shoulder in fear. your life looking over your shoulder infear. a your life looking over your shoulder in fear. a tweet says that they had committed treason and then used violent and gruesome imagery. we talked about their heads being put on spikes outside of westminster. it is across the house of commons. mps from different parties have all talked about this abuse. the difficulty is how to stop it. that's exactly it. one wonders whether this is the issue of the moment and it could be something else later. how seriously to authorities dig it? as you added on the newspaperfront, harriet harman, the longest serving female mp in the house of commons, a labourmp, female mp in the house of commons, a labour mp, earlier today she alluded to the issue of his papers. she said

that there was a toxic triangle caused by the divisive nature of brexit, the fact, she said, that some newspapers had been targeting mps and thirdly that social media acted as some sort of mob rule, the combination of those, she said, made this issue today so difficult. they have been comments from mps as to what exactly is also media companies should be doing to come on this type of abuse. also, the speaker, john berger, he has denounced these threats of violence. he says that mps, when they vote, whichever way they vote and whichever issue they vote on, they are not enemies of the people or anything like that. they arejust doing theirjob. it is clearly a n arejust doing theirjob. it is clearly an issue being taken seriously but getting it to stop is going to be very difficult. many thanks. let's go back to the story of the

train derailment. we know that there are multiple fatalities after that terrible incident, bring us up—to—date with what we know. terrible incident, bring us up-to-date with what we know. we know that more than 70 people were taken to hospital. there are reports of multiple fatalities, perhaps six people have lost their lives and we know from what the police are saying that the scene that all of those people who lost their lives were on the train as opposed to in vehicles on the motorway underneath the overpass. the scene from the aerial shots we are looking at, quite devastating, multiple carriages coming off the line, skewed in all sorts of different directions. the question now is what caused this and investigators are heading from the national transportation safety

board, which looks into any transportation accident of this nature, they are heading from washington dc to washington state. later on today they will start their investigation looking at the potential for human air and looking at the speed of the train and looking at the infrastructure and president trump referred to it earlier, and also in his speech saying that in his view, this shows that the crumbling infrastructure of the united states transportation system needs to be improved. early days yet in terms of what has happened, the focus is on helping the injured and appeals have gone out for blood, for people to donate blood for those recovering in hospital. peter, thank you. let's ta ke hospital. peter, thank you. let's take a look at the headlines. as you

have been hearing, in washington, multiple fatalities after a train derailed from a bridge onto a highway. the uranium refugee murdered by his neighbour, and enquiries find institutional racism. theresa may says there can never be a place for threats in politics after a number of mps received abusive messages. time for the sport. everton a re everton are taking on swansea in the premier league. everton remain unbeaten and they are facing a side who have lost their last five away matches. it is currently goalless after just matches. it is currently goalless afterjust under 20 minutes at goodison park, swansea were dealt a blow when wilfred bonnie had to go off with an injury, but it is goalless in the only premier league

game tonight. west ham midfielder manuel lanzini has been charged by the fa for diving during saturday's premier league match against stoke. west ham were awarded a penalty after lanzini fell to the ground — which led to them taking an early lead in their 3—nil win. he'll have until 6 o'clock tomorow evening to respond to the charge of successful deception of a match official. burnley‘s james tarkowski has been charged with violent conduct following an off the ball incident with brighton's glenn murray. it took place during saturday's goalless draw and wasn't seen by any of the match officials, but was caught on video. he also has until 6 o'clock tomorrow to respond. crystal palace's jason puncheon has been charged with carrying a weapon after a fight near a surrey nightclub at the weekend. the midfielder was arrested in the early hours of sunday morning after the disturbance near a bar in reigate and later charged with possession of an offensive weapon, common assault, and a public order offence. he's been released on bail and is training with the club as normal. the football association's head of women's football baroness sue campbell says they are struggling

to find female candidates for the england manager's job. under—19s coach mo marley is the current interim manager, with no permanent successor to mark sampson expected to be named until next year. campbell has told the bbc there are plenty of candidates for the vacancy but not a lot are women. the draw has been made earlier this afternoon for the semi—finals of the wsl continental cup. holders manchester city women will travel to chelsea, whilst reading are at home to arsenal. the games will take place on the weekend of the 13th and the 14th of january. england are picking through the tatters of the ashes tour — after they were beaten by an innings and 41 runs in perth in the third, decisive test. there are calls for some of the senior members of the squad to move on — following disappointing performances, with the next two tests a chance, perhaps, for england to give some new talent a try. it had been coming for a while, but for australia, stilljust

as sweet — for england, just as painful. australia securing the ashes. they have a 3—0 lead in the series but the daily began with an unlikely lifeline for england. overnight rain had leaked onto the pitch, an army of leaf blowers were deployed, causing a three hour delay. but australia made up for lost time. jonny bairstow clean bowled by one that barely bounced. moeen ali was next to go forjust 11. his torrid tour continues and once dawid malan went after another impressive half—century, england's hopes left with them, the final wicket went to pat cummins, chris woa kes wicket went to pat cummins, chris woakes the last man out for england. that started celebration amongst the

australia players, they have outplayed england in every facet of this series, the bowlers have shown more pace, the batsmen have been more pace, the batsmen have been more durable, england can have few complaints about the scoreline. australia have regain the ashes here in emphatic style. rugby union and france's all—time leading scorer frederic michalak will retire at the end of the season. the 35—year old lyon fly—half said the physical nature of the sport is getting "more and more difficult". michalak made 77 appearances for france and retired from international rugby two years ago. he won three six nations grand slams and played in three world cups. that's all the sport for now. i'll have more for you in sportsday at half past ten. thank you. in the speech tonight setting out his national security policy presidentjohn said the united states faces a new era of competition with rival powers like

china and russia seeking to challenge its influence, he was making his speech at an event in washington. this strategy recognises that whether we like it or not, we are engaged in a new era of competition. we accept that vigorous military economic and political contests a re military economic and political contests are now playing out all around the world. we face rogue regimes that threaten the united states and our allies, we face terrorist organisations, transnational criminal networks and others to spread violence and evil around the globe. we also face rival powers, russia and china, that seek to challenge american influence, values and wealth. we will attempt to build a great partnership with those and other countries, but in a manner that always protects our national interest. we can speak to

our correspondent who is in washington. talk us through the main points of his speech, what stood out for you? well, what stood out initially was it sounded like a campaign speech because he went on for a long time about the failure of previous governments and then went on about his achievements and when he got to the national security strategy, he framed it in his america first achievements at home. america first achievements at home. america first achievements at home. america first meaning economic power at home and if you are powerful economically at home, then you can be powerful abroad. that was very much the framework, it struck me that it was not a retreat on the international stage, it was not the us withdrawing from global engagement, but it was quite an muscular interaction with the world. he talked a lot more about competition than he did about cooperation. president obama talked about cooperation with allies and trying to reach adversaries, but he

talked about this been a competition and that the us was ready to fight it and the us was ready to win. it was willing to work with partners but to make sure that us interests we re but to make sure that us interests were met. he did refer quite briefly to the actual threats in terms of countries like russia and china, it was previewed very much that these countries would be labelled revisionist powers that were trying to undermine the us, the rules —based order and trying to put forward values and interests that countered the us and you have that in the document itself but he skirted over that very briefly and gave a shout out to president putin saying he had called him this week to thank him for intelligence that prevented a bombing in russia. he did not go very hard on that in his speech, but the overall feeling i think was a tougher more muscular approach to international engagement bar one that was engaging in the

world. barbara, many thanks. binjamin netanyahu has thanked the united states for vetoing a resolution that would have required president trump to resent his declaration ofjerusalem president trump to resent his declaration of jerusalem as president trump to resent his declaration ofjerusalem as the capital of israel. the us used as the two after the council members voted in favour of the motion. it is the first time in nearly seven years that america has used the powers that america has used the powers that a meeting. in south africa, the african national congress which has ruled the country since the end of apartheid has elected a new leader. he will replace jacob zuma as party leader and looks on course to become president as well. underjacob zuma, the south african economy has stagnated and the political climate has become more divisive. here is fergal keane. it is a huge step forward. he campaigned for the post of party president, promising to

root out corruption, to restore the kind of moral values associated with the party of nelson mandela and those great anti—apartheid campaigners. you have to look at this result and take into account the fact that elected as his deputy president is a man who was as strong loyalist, his scope for the radical change, radical attack on corruption will be limited. i have been watching him since the 1980s when he was a union negotiator, a very tough man, but one who knew instinctively went to strike a deal. i saw him helped to negotiate a new constitution for south africa. we have to remember his role in the irish peace process where he was brought in to remember his role in the irish peace process where he was brought into cebit decommissioning of irish weapons. he has had tact, patience and he has had steel. he will need all of those in tackling the problems of south africa. we can speak to

the problems of south africa. we can speakto an the problems of south africa. we can speak to an analyst. we got a brief biography of cyril ramaphosa there. how difficult a task do you think he now has when it comes to the anc and the country? it is a very big challenge for him. first of all, his own track record, he has been in business, he is associated very much with western capitalism and he was chair man of so many of those companies in south africa. now, many black people feel that the distribution of wealth has not happened and they will be asking, you are so rich, how did you make it, can we not share in it? that is the biggest challenge for him. i think he is very experienced and he knows how to run a business, so we can be sure that the economy of south africa will grow under him, but it is that big problem of distribution of wealth that he has to address. what about the party,

anc, can he heal divisions?” to address. what about the party, anc, can he heal divisions? i think he will, i would say make the lady vice president. that would immediately heal it, but i think it is more to do with issues of corruption that he needs to address but if he addresses those, then he ru ns but if he addresses those, then he runs the fear of dividing the party, because there is a big following for jacob zuma and yet addressing corruption means literally trying to go on with the investigation and taking jacob zuma to court. in a very positive way, i would say what ends he has done today, as an african is marvellous. we saw the play of democracy in a country, very excellent. i come from uganda right now, they are changing the constitution right now as i speak to ta ke constitution right now as i speak to take away an article which powers

the president to go beyond 75 years of age. there will be violence, people will be arrested, so we look to south africa to give that example andi to south africa to give that example and i think they have done a wonderfully. and yet cyril ramaphosa faces challenges such as corruption, the economy. its easy man for the task? his straight glass from his past. we wa nt his straight glass from his past. we want the period from his work with business. —— his strength comes from his past, he negotiated peace and so on, as we saw, he was head of the unions. the big challenge which i was talking about at the beginning to do with economics is the union. the workers. young people and so on, who will as cotton, can you not bring back those credentials that you had as a man who looked after

interest? —— who will ask him, can you now bring back. if you can deal with this chronic fairness, there is nothing wrong. there's nothing wrong making zuma ex wife of zuma the vice president. that would heal the rifts within the party at the moment. the other big challenge is that many feel that south african politics have become degraded over time since i days of nelson mandela. he needs to be able to reassure people that they can be on a less corrupt footing. whilst i say that his credentials are within business, he has succeeded as a millionaire, with business, business has been a source of toxic politics in south africa. we all know about the link between president zuma and other families, business people, this is where the

production thing comes in. —— corruption thing comes in. i hope you will not allow business and politicians to play these dirty games, working in this toxic way. —— i hope he will not allow. i think you can do a body has to know that south africa is watching, the world is watching. —— i think you can do it but he has to know. let's look at the weather. we are expecting fold to develop more widely over the next few hours. anybody catching a plane early in the morning it will have impact for them. lots of major airports in that error. west midlands never cleared away in strategy. the mixture of low cloud, increasing cloud, hillfort. maybe a touch of frost in the

south—east. freezing fog by the morning. a treaty struck for travellers in the morning. lots of the folk will lift, cloud increasing. some areas will stay foggy. potentially some sunshine and possibly for degrees. it could be 14 degrees in the moray coast. overnight and into wednesday, getting started in northern england and wales. not as faulty in the south. it will be mild. —— not as foggy. we are packing up at the end of this vital summit we are packing up at the end of this vitalsummit in we are packing up at the end of this vital summit in brussels. what is happening next is our faces are on your tv for brexit discussion. hello. this is bbc news. the headlines: a train derails from a bridge onto a busy road below in the us

on the banks of loch lomond. police scotland say the cameron house hotel has been extensively damaged. around 200 guests were evacuated from the hotel after the alarm was raised early this morning. james shaw reports. the fire started before dawn, and as the sun rose, a huge plume of smoke was visible rising from the central building of the hotel. one person died at the scene — another died later in hospital. three other people, including a child, were treated for the effects of smoke inhalation. the fire and rescue service's condolences go out to the people who were involved in this tragic incident, and our thoughts are very much with the family and the friends of the two people who have lost their lives this morning. the hotel itself was badly damaged, and is expected to be closed for some time. other businesses in the area, which is a major tourism

destination in scotland, are offering to help. the cameron house hotel is one of the most famous luxury hotels in scotland. but today it was the scene of a mass evacuation and desperate attempts by hotel staff and firefighters to save lives. an investigation to find the cause of the fire has already begun. james shaw, bbc news, on the banks of loch lomond. police in lebanon have arrested an uber driver in connection with the murder of a 30 year—old british diplomat in beirut. the body of rebecca dykes, who worked at the british embassy in the city, was found beside a motorway over the weekend. officers say she had been strangled and sexually assaulted. tonight, her family said in a statement that rebecca was simply irreplaceable. from lebanon, our middle east correspondent quentin sommerville sent this report. becky dykes fell in love with lebanon. she had onlyjust moved here full—time, but she was deeply

committed to her work, helping the country cope with the influx of refugees from syria. there was a final night out before she returned home for christmas — a colleague's leaving do here at this bar in gemmayzeh. at around midnight, she called a taxi, an uber, to take her home. she was never seen alive again. she was driven out of beirut. her body was found by a highway the next day. she'd been strangled and sexually assaulted. a 35—year—old lebanese man is in police custody. the suspect is believed to be an uber driver. he's worked for the company for a short period of time. here in beirut, uber‘s generally seen as a safe way of getting about, especially by women on their own. the company responded in a statement, saying that it was horrified by this senseless act of violence and that it's fully cooperating with the police investigation. lebanon's dark days lie mostly in its past. in these neighbourhoods, there's now a relaxed

approach to personal safety. this is not the first attack of its kind, but they are rare. we all drink in this area, we go out on fridays and saturday nights, in this very neighbourhood, which is usually very, very safe. so i think we are alljust deeply saddened that one of our friends left by herself and just didn't come back. at the british embassy, staff are heartbroken. the ambassador took to social media and said, the whole embassy is deeply shocked, it was a tragic loss. embassy staff are now providing consular assistance to the family of one of their own. becky dykes hadn't been in lebanon long, but she'd already made a big difference. her friends say that's how they want to remember her — as someone who cared, a bright starjust beginning her career, and a woman who'd already helped improve the lives of the most vulnerable here in lebanon. quentin sommerville, bbc news, beirut. a review of fire and

building regulations, following the grenfell tower disaster, says the current system isn't fit for purpose, and a culture change is required to ensure safety is prioritised over cost. damejudith hackitt, in her interim review for the government, says the rules should be simplified. our home affairs correspondent tom symonds explained the findings of the interim report from near the foot of g re nfell tower. this is a senior engineer setting out some of the problems with the building regulation system that may have led to the tragedy here. she says the system is so complicated that her staff had to draw up a map for her to help her understand it — and it is very complicated. she says that this has so many loopholes that if you want to get away with shirking standards, then there's very little chance of you being caught and very few penalties. she is the former head of the health and safety executive and she says she wants a change as big as the change that has happened in workplace safety over the last ten years. but she says she's not really here to come up

with particular standards. mps today wanted her to say that she would ban the use of so—called limited combustibility materials on towers like grenfell tower, which isjust over there. she said that's not so much herjob as coming up with a system which will maintain safety in future. us military personnel fired shots today at a suffolk airbase used by the american air force — as they stopped someone who tried to force their way in. raf mildenhall was locked down by security staff, after reports of an individual ramming the gates with a vehicle. a 44—year—old british man was arrested but police said the incident was not being treated as terrorism. operations have returned to normal. the base hosts the 100th air refueling wing and some special operations squadrons. 6 people were killed yesterday in what was described as a horrific carcrash in birmingham.

our correspondent sima kotecha has spoken to the father of one of the men who died in the accident. that happened in the early hours of sunday morning on a dual carriageway in the city centre. three cars were directly involved in the crash. six people were killed, including 32—year—old man. a taxi driver and a father of six. a sad situation. a very sad situation. his father says his world has been destroyed. he is a great person, he was a great, wonderfulfriendly, friendly a great person, he was a great, wonderful friendly, friendly with everyone, and everyone is today, since he first awake, huge people

came for sympathy. he says that his son no longer wanted to be a taxi driver. my daughter-in-law explained, please, did not do it anyway. you were going to look for anotherjob. he anyway. you were going to look for another job. he replied, anyway. you were going to look for anotherjob. he replied, ok, in the new year i will look for another job. so i'm always listening in. two of his passengers, a man and a woman, also died. three men in another car lost lives, including a 26 rolled and a 32—year—old. —— 30—year—old. people living in the city said that the road is popular with racers but it will not be clear what caused the crash for a while yet as officers continue their investigation. this road was reopened in time for this morning's russia. the victims were all from the birmingham area and many of their friends the birmingham area and many of theirfriends and the birmingham area and many of their friends and relatives the birmingham area and many of theirfriends and relatives have come here to lay flowers, some are

still in shock and asking that crucial question, what happened is why? —— what happened and why? inmates at liverpool prison are being kept in the worst living conditions inspectors have ever seen — that's according to a leaked report seen by the bbc. prison inspectors found rats, cockroaches and exposed wiring when they made an unannounced visit to the prison. a lack of leadership at all levels, including government, was the chief cause of the problems. our social affairs correspondent michael buchanan has this report. behind the walls of liverpool prison, more than 1100 men live in squalid conditions. rats and cockroaches are rife. pools of urine seep from broken toilets. if you put a dog in a place like this, people would come and take you away and lock you up for cruelty to animals. we're human beings. darren hurley spentjust over two years in the prison after being convicted of drugs offences. released in the summer, he told me what life

on the inside was like. cockroaches, rats. rubbish just getting left inside the buildings, rather than put out at the end of the evening. does it smell? yeah, it smells terrible. basically, it's like living in a tip. the report we've seen followed an unannounced inspection in september. the inspectors wrote they could not recall having seen worse living conditions. a backlog of over 2000 maintenancejobs. this former chief inspector of prisons is exasperated by the failings. i asked the head of the prison service, how on earth do it he allow the prison to get into that state? because the management was clearly incompetent in the prison itself. and how could anyone come up from headquarters and go

into liverpool and see that, and not feel ashamed, and do something about it? somebody i showed this report to said to me this is england's worstjail. i wouldn't dispute that. the inspectors agree, blaming the failure of liverpool notjust on the governor, but on senior officials at the ministry ofjustice. local prison managers had sought help, said the report, but their requests had been met with little response. perhaps most damningly, the inspectors write, we can see no credible plan to address these basic issues. it's not the fault of the staff are management. this is with the emoji and the government. invest in prisons and give us the resources to draw a job. —— this is the ministry ofjustice.

draw a job. —— this is the ministry of justice. the draw a job. —— this is the ministry ofjustice. the ministry of draw a job. —— this is the ministry of justice. the ministry of justice said that they have employed a new governor. the conditions inside are set to remain dire. former prisoners we've spoken to, released in recent weeks, say the conditions inside remain dire. michael buchanan, bbc news, liverpool. the headlines on bbc news: in the us state of washington — multiple fatalities after a train derails from a bridge onto a highway. the iranian refugee murdered by his neighbour — an inquiry finds evidence of "institutional racism" by bristol's police and council. theresa may has condemned abuse of mps following last week's brexit vote saying there was no place for threats of intimidation in politics. an update on the market numbers for you — here's how london's and frankfurt ended the day. and in the the united states this is how the dow and the nasdaq are getting on. the united nations high commissioner

for human rights says it is possible aung san suu kyi and other senior figures in myanmar could face charges of genocide, following the violence against the rohingya muslim minority. zeid ra'ad al hussein has told the bbc that the level of planning involved suggested the repression was sanctioned at the highest level, as our south asia correspondent, justin rowlatt reports. this boy is 11 years old, he draws pictures of the horrors he has witnessed. translation: older women were stamped on. and then the military grabbed them by the hair and slaughtered them. because i saw that, i am drawing this. he is one of 650,000 rohingya refugees who fled myanmar after a military assault that began in late august.

they are coming to kill us, says the man, they are coming to kill us. the widespread and systematic nature of the violence has persuaded the un's human rights chief that the crimes committed in myanmar could amount to genocide, acts intended to destroy a group of people. can anyone rule out that elements of genocide may be present? he wants a criminal investigation to identify the perpetrators and, in an exclusive interview with the bbc, he doesn't rule out the possibility that aung sang suu kyi or military leaders could end up in the dock. given the scale of the military operation, and clearly these would have to be decisions taken at a high enough level, and then the crime of admission, that if it came to your knowledge that this was being committed

and you did nothing to stop it, then you could be culpable for that. he says only a court can judge that. but he is determined that justice should be done. in the meantime, though, this boy and hundreds of thousands like him remain in limbo. we asked aung sang suu kyi for a response but she hasn't replied. justin rowlatt, bbc news. you can seejustin rowlatt‘s full report for panorama, myanmar: the hidden truth, on the bbc iplayer. it used to be a rare occurrence that deserved a special letter of congratulations from the queen, but new figures show that one in eight people in the uk is projected to live

to at least 100. that's around 8.5 million people. it's part of a global trend. but how do we make sure more of us remain healthy becoming so—called super—agers? in the first of a series of reports our medical correspondent fergus walsh has been to california, to a centre for research into ageing. on your marks... to me, i don't think about age as being a handicap. set... it's just a process. you live, you die. so, why not live? irene o'bera is 8a. she makes old age look like an irrelevance. irene's been breaking world records for four decades. it takes effort. when she's not training at this track near san francisco, she's in the gym. her philosophy is simple. live the life you love, and love the life you lead. and a quitter never wins, and a winner never quits. and i want to be a winner. we're living in an ageing world.

by 2050, the number of people aged 65 and over is projected to triple globally to 1.5 billion. in the uk, the number of people aged 80 and over is projected to more than double to 7.5 million by 2050. and the number of centenarians to increase sixfold to 911,000. it's a whole body movement... so, what can we do to increase our chances of spending those extra years in good health, like irene? she speaks french it's notjust about exercising the body, but also the mind. that's because keeping the brain active can lower the risk of developing dementia. she speaks french ijoined a french language class

in berkeley, across the bay from san francisco, where all the students are in their seventies. my mother had alzheimer's. so, i mean, there's part of me doesn't want that to happen to me. i do believe that, erm, intellectual stimulation is important. and science may be able to help. in the hills above silicon valley sits the buck institute. researchers there are working on how to delay the way our bodies age. this is our building... this could increase the healthy years of life, free of conditions like cancer, arthritis or heart disease. we predict that there will be drugs that will treat ageing, instead of each disease individually. people themselves would be able to look forward to the last decade of their life still being vibrant, engaged, healthy. just like irene, who challenged me to a friendly race.

she can run 100m only seven seconds slower than usain bolt. so, despite my 27—year advantage, the winner was never in doubt. that was fantastic. so, i'vejust been beaten by an 84—year—old, but i've been beaten by a super—ager — and i think that's pretty inspiring. thank you! fergus walsh, bbc news, california. the right reverend sarah mullally has been named as the new bishop of london, making her the most senior clergywoman in the history of the church of england. she became a priest in 2001 after spending over 35 years working as a senior nurse for the nhs. bishop sarah, who's 55, will be the third woman to run a diocese and will take up a seat in the house of lords. historic england has published a list of the the most unusual sites

and structures given protected status this year. the organisation says the places gaining the status are increasingly quirky. our correspondentjon donnison has been looking at the latest additions. from whipsnade tree cathedral in dunstable to a working men's club in eastbourne, from the old milestone markers on the ba073 in gloucestershire, to the grave of blackie the warhorse in merseyside. it is an eclectic list of the historic england selection of the most intriguing sites registered in 2017. we just put up 20 that demonstrate the enormous range. i mean, we're not really talking about big places anymore, because most of those — most of those are on the list already. it's been going for 70 years. we're talking about individual places which perhaps were not very well—known, which we think deserve protection. and this includes this victorian gas tower off the old kent road in london. on a drab december day,

it may not be much to look at, but when it was completed, in 1881, gasholder no 13, as it is known, was the biggest ever built, and its design went on to be replicated around the world. it is an imposing structure, and like all those listed in 2017, not one that will be going anywhere any time soon. the duke and duchess of cambridge have announced that their daughter, two—year—old princess charlotte, will attend a london nursery from january. the princess will start at the willcocks nursery school, close to their kensington palace home. the royal couple have also released a new family photograph of themselves and their children taken earlier this year — which will feature on their christmas card. time for a look at the weather with darren bett. falk will be a problem, in england
