dozen stopped in the uk since last year's westminster attack, according to the head of mi5. giving the first public speech outside the uk by a serving mi5 head, andrew parker will tell an audience in berlin that the shared strength of european intelligence partnerships has never been more crucial to combat what he calls "the intense and unrelenting international terrorist threat". he will say that cooperation is unrecognisable compared with five years ago, with thousands of messages exchanged on secure networks every week. mr parker will also accuse the kremlin of flagrant breaches of international rules and warned that the russian government is pursuing an agenda through aggressive and punitious actions by its military and intelligence services. gordon corera, bbc news. carole walker is in the bbc newsroom with a summary of the rest of the days news. more than half of uk police forces are handing over of victims of crime to the home office for immigration enforcement. the figures have been

revealed to this programme through the freedom of information act. campaigners say the government's hostile environment policies mean seriously vulnerable people are not reporting crime. the home office said it would support vulnerable migrants regardless of their immigration status. two british tourists kidnapped in the democratic republic of congo have been freed. the couple were ambushed in the national park on friday, a park ranger who was with them was killed. simon clements and has this report. bethan davies and robertjesty had been exploring africa's oldest park, virunga. on friday, the vehicle they were travelling in was ambushed and they were abducted. the park ranger trying to protect them, rachel makissa baraka, was killed, and their driver injured but freed. at the spot where it happened, the army was drafted in to keep watch while searches

were carried out. virunga says it's home to about a quarter of the world's critically endangered mountain gorillas but armed groups also hide in these forests, making money by kidnapping and then demanding a ransom. it is not clear if a ransom was paid in this case. in a statement, bethan and robert simply said they were relieved and were grateful for the support they'd been given. the bbc understands they've already left congo and are being reunited with theirfamilies. tourist visas to virunga national park are being suspended while the foreign office continues to warn of the dangers which bethan and robert have experienced first—hand. simon clemison, bbc news. the united states will open its new embassy in israel today after president trump officially recognised jerusalem as the country's capital. the move has been welcomed by israel but not palestinians who want the eastern pa rt palestinians who want the eastern part of the city to be the capital ofa part of the city to be the capital of a future state. the us is the first to move its

embassy but already others say they will follow. it's a great thinker israel that the president of the united states did what he promised and many president's before him promised, to move tojerusalem. and many president's before him promised, to move to jerusalem. for now the new embassy will be just a few rooms inside the consulate offices which are already here. it will take years before a new building goes up. it's the change taking place right now which has huge symbolic significance. that is why israel leaves are delighted and palestinians are furious. this state is always a time of process for palestinians, they remember how infighting in 1940 800s of thousands of people lost their homes on land which became part of israel. this

year ‘s demonstrations are also ended washington. translation: year ‘s demonstrations are also ended washington. translatiosz will be for the embassy, gaza will rise up along with the west bank, everyone, the children, the boys, the women, nobody will stay home. already president trump's daughter and son—in—law have arrived in israel for the embassy opening. but the white house idea of a new peace plan looks more unrealistic than ever. organised crime affects more people in the uk than any other security threat, according to the national crime agency. in its annual report the agency estimates there are over four and the agency estimates there are over fourand a the agency estimates there are over four and a half thousand crime groups in the uk, the gangs are behind defences from sexual exploitation and modern—day slavery to cyberfraud, exploitation and modern—day slavery to cyber fraud, money—laundering and cross—border smuggling. the use of encrypted apps on phones is making catching the criminals more difficult. there has been a sharp

champions for some time but it was an exciting climax to the end of the season. season. yes, fantastic weekend, memorable season in the premier league for a lot of reasons, some fans happy, some sad as we know, but there will be names which go down in history, none more so be names which go down in history, none more so than this man mohamed salah, over the last ten months he's been unbelievable. he scored yesterday in liverpool ‘s win over brighton on the final day to take his league tally up to 32 going past the likes of alan shearer, luis suarez and ronaldo for the most goals scored any 38 game season but after the plaudits even as he received the golden boot at anfield,

it was his daughter who drew the biggest cheers. for once at least this season mohamed salah was booed by his own fans after daring to take the ball away from her. clearly she already has a successful trial and could appearfor a already has a successful trial and could appear for a liverpool ladies one day soon. it is clearly genetic! other records broken yesterday as well? yes, manchester city received the premier league trophy last weekend but even those celebrations seemed a little bit subdued as they became the first century and is any 38 game season, reaching the magical mark of a hundred points into matic fashion, they left it until the 94th minute to beat southampton thanks to jesus's wehner sparking wild celebrations from manager pep guardiola. afterwards he called his players magnificent and he's got every reason because this is just a selection of some of the records

they have not just selection of some of the records they have notjust broken but smashed. they will be dubbed leigh centurions, easily one of, if not the best team in premier league history. also people will remember for so long certain sections of arsenalfans for so long certain sections of arsenal fans calling for arsene wenger to go, now he has gone nothing but warmth and praise. yes, i have already heard from some arsenalfans, real i have already heard from some arsenal fans, real heartbreak at seeing him go. the invincible steamerfrom 2004, seeing him go. the invincible steamer from 2004, yesterday he managed his 1235th game in charge after almost 22 years at the helm. he waved goodbye to the fans before kick—off having been given a guard of honour at huddersfield. he was

given a standing ovation by everyone in the stadium after 22 minutes. that marking his tenure. he said huddersfield was a fitting place to end his tenure which is where herbert chapman was in charge before his move to london. a memorable weekend, memorable season. not over yet for english teams, the fa cup final to come and liverpool will be playing in the champions league final the following weekend so football fans, it's not overjust yet. thank you, we will speak to you again later on. more than half of uk police forces are reporting victims of crime to the home office for immigration enforcement, figures obtained by this programme reveal. one woman beaten in the street by her partner ended up being arrested herself. and in another case a woman who reported being raped to police was also arrested. a former police officer has told us that these victims are ‘low hanging fruit‘ to officials trying to meet immigration targets and that forces have no clear policy on this. catrin nye has this exclusive report... i was told that we were going to go

to the uk to have a better life and start a family but that wasn't what happened. she wanted to come legally with a valid visa and her trafficker made sure that he brought her in illegally so that she couldn't go to the police because she would get arrested. exactly what happened in her case. and we see that as a common feature in all domestic violence and trafficking cases. sara came to the uk with her partner, a british citizen. she describes him as her husband but the marriage was an informal ceremony rather than anything legally binding. what was your life like here? i was treated like a slave.

he told me, "that is why i brought you here, so you can cook and clean for me and get beaten by me." he used to say, "the belt is not leaving as many marks so i'm going to use the cable." she was made to sleep on the floor. she didn't have keys for the place she was in. she was beaten up on a daily basis. i told him that i'm leaving. he told me, "you're not going anywhere." i packed my clothes in a bag because i had no wardrobe so ijust picked up everything and left. when she ran out into the street, he chased after her. and beat her up in front of a member of the public. he then called the police.

they arrested the perpetrator. they took her to hospital because of the severity of her injuries. she had bruises and cuts all over her body. sara was released from hospital and taken to a hostel. we've changed her name to protect her identity. once at that hostel, sara was arrested too. despite disclosing what she had been through, she was told she was here illegally and so she was arrested. sara was taken to yarl‘s wood immigration detention centre to be deported. it was there that she met lawyer sulaiha ali. along with caseworker lottie hume, they show me sara's injuries detailed at the centre. so this lists all the injuries? yes. bruises to right upper back, bruised to back of left upper leg. bruise to back of right upper leg.

we also have confirmation from the police that sara's former partner, her trafficker, is being investigated for abh. sulaiha thinks sara should never have been arrested at all. it's shocking to know that victims of crime are being seen and treated as criminals just because of their status. i think it's something that we are coming across routinely now and it is as a result of theresa may's hostile environment policy that has been brought into effect by the immigration act. we did freedom of information request to all uk police forces to find out which ones refer victims of crime like sara and witnesses to the home office for immigration enforcement. now, the responses were really varied, which shows how little agreement there is on this across forces. we found that 27 uk forces do report people.

some said a straight yes. others with caveats like "not routinely" or "it's rare". three police forces said they did not do it including police scotland. the rest were unclear, didn't reply or said they had no data. last november this case was uncovered. a woman reported to the police that she'd been kidnapped and raped over a six—month period. she was taken to a sexual assault centre by the police but then, while there, she was arrested. hello. good morning. we are extremely worried that this is one of the consequences of what this government has created in terms of the hostile environment. and it is really now in conflict with the government's stated aim, which is to protect all women from violence against women and punish perpetrators.

since 2014, we've seen a steady rise in cases where the police have arrested women or reported women to the home office as potential illegals rather than deal with their reports of violence and rape. in december, the national police chiefs council issued guidance on this, saying: "only where there is intelligence or information that the person poses an immediate risk of harm to a specific individual or a wider group

of people should an immediate arrest be made." and actually only three police forces who responded to us on this were following that guidance. what do you make of this? the guidance is very vague. you need a lot more information there. i don't think it would be particularly helpful to your average police officer who's got a huge caseload who is going to have to make a decision very, very quickly. how are the police working with immigration officers? prior to 2014, there were pilot programmes across the country where immigration officers were working with police intelligence units. but it's much more routine now and it's been rolled out so it's much more extensive to have immigration officers working with police intelligence units. why are charities saying that since 2014 this has been ramped up, this practice has been ramped up? i think it's a terrible term, but these are low—hanging fruit. these are vulnerable people. they are easy to tick off on your list if you've

got a target to meet. it's much easier when a woman comes forward who has been raped to then say, "we are investigating this and then we will arrest you and you will be sent to a detention centre." i am really worried that this means that the crimes will go unreported and all of us will be at greater risk. when i've heard of people for example being the subject of rape, being afraid to come forward to report that rape, which means that the perpetrator of that rape is still at large, that is not in anybody's interest. it seems to me that we should have a firewall between the police operations and immigration officials, because once you start to muddle the two, then you get very, very complex conclusions and essentially it really does jeopardise justice. what i've been calling on sajid javid to do is to have a wholesale review of the operations within the home office, because windrush is an appalling thing that happened, but it's kind of a logical conclusion of a whole attitude

within the home office that everybody is guilty until they can prove themselves innocent. this hostile environment i think is doing deep damage to our society. we want to see clarity from the home office and police ranks at the highest levels as to what the police duty is when it comes to responding to victims of domestic violence. is the priority to protect women and afford them access to the criminaljustice system or is it to detain them and inform the home office so that they can be deported? can you really expect a police officer to ignore a crime that is right in front of them? absolutely. the cause of action we would demand from the home office and from police the course of action we would demand from the home office and from police

forces is that they separate themselves completely from immigration enforcement. i don't think it's practical. if somebody has committed an offence, albeit an immigration offence, it's important that the appropriate authorities are told, but they also understand what the repercussions would be if they acted immediately. they also need to understand there is an investigation going on. you could have a situation where somebody has committed an immigration offence, but that immigration offence has been constructed by the trafficker to have control over the individual and you need to understand that before you make a decision about arresting somebody and putting them into a detention centre. sulaiha and lottie stopped sara's deportation order. she has now applied for asylum in the uk. how is she coping? she's doing quite bad. the focus has been completely on her immigration and her removal from the uk and that's all that the home office seem to be concerned with. i'm not here to beg for a flat or papers.

i'm here just to let you know what happened to me in this country. i was told that if i didn't come, i would have died. i didn't even know where the uk is. i have no family here, no friends here. i have nobody, nothing. sara says she's terrified and if she's sent back to her home country, she'll be killed. he was going to kill me here, so what's going to stop him from doing it back home where they kill you and nobody ever knows? we approached the government and police for a response to our report, a home office spokesperson said victims of crime must be treated first and foremost as victims. when individuals are found to have no basis in the uk we carefully considered the details of the case before taking an enforcement action.

and a spokesman for the national police chiefs counsel said following the cases highlighted in our film they provided unequivocal advice to forces that victims of crime should be treated as victims first and foremost, only went there existed intelligence information from police databases or other law enforcement agencies including immigration enforcement indicated the person posed an immediate risk to others should an immediate arrest be made. let's pull up some pictures coming into us from gazza, you will be familiar that donald trump said he was going to move the us embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem. was going to move the us embassy from tel aviv tojerusalem. —— gaza. these pictures are coming into us from the gaza border with israel. as you can appreciate many israelis support the move by the us president, many palestinians are unhappy about this move because they very much see eastjerusalem as the

capital of a future palestinian state and they think the us president's moves aligns him even closer to the israeli position and they are unhappy about that. it's not clear what is happening, reports of skirmishes along the border, the afp news agency says clashes have erupted, we can see clear black smoke, afp reporting that 12 alistair mearns were wounded, that's according to the v gaza health minister, several thousand people reported to have gathered near the border, smaller numbers of stonethrowers approaching the fence with israeli snipers positioned on the other side. those are the latest pictures coming to us live from the israel gaza border, we will talk about this at greater length in around an hour here on the programme and we will keep you updated. let me bring you some comments coming into us bring you some comments coming into us about that film we've just played you. about police arresting victims

if there is an issue with their immigration status, hanna says this is abhorrent, reports said victims and witnesses of serious crime branch being arrested and reported to the home office for immigration enforcement and tony says this doesn't distract from the fact that victims are here illegally. your thoughts welcome on this, keep them coming. still to come. a heterosexual couple go to the supreme court to fight for for what they say is their human right, we speak to them about their legal battle to have a civil partnership. we are in for a cracking night to night, celebrating the finest talent from a year of incredible british television! the bafta television awards saw it shows as diverse as blue planet and love island taking

home prices, we have all of the highlights from that littering bash. time for the latest news — here's carole walker. so—called islamic state still aspires to plan devastating and complex attacks despite its loss of territory. andrew parker will be speaking to an audience of european security chiefs in berlin and will also see european intelligence partnerships have never been more important. he will also deliver a strongly worded rebuke to russia in his first public comments since the nerve agent attack in salisbury. more than half of uk police forces are handing over victims of crime to the home office for immigration enforcement. the figures have been revealed to this programme through a freedom of information act. campaigners say the hostile environment policy of the government

means seriously vulnerable people are not reporting crime. the home office said it will support vulnerable migrants regardless of their immigration status. two british tourists kidnapped in the democratic republic of congo have said they are relieved to have been freed. they were ambushed in the national park on friday, a park ranger who was with them was killed. the united states will open its new embassy in israel today after president trump officially recognised jerusalem as the country's capital. the move has angered palestinians who have been holding protests at the border between israel and gaza. palestinians see east jerusalem between israel and gaza. palestinians see eastjerusalem as their own future capital and the us move as backing israeli control over the whole city. there's been an explosion at the police headquarters in the second biggest city in indonesia a day after suicide

attacks on three churches. local media reports suggest a number of people have been killed including police officers. there has been a sharp rise in the number of children under 11, referred for mental health treatment by schools in the last four gears. data obtained by the children's charity the nspcc shows that schools in england have made more than 120,000 rebels to specialist help between 2014 and 2015 with more than half of these from primary schools. the government says its reforms will transform services for children. teenage pianist has won the bbc‘s prestigious young musician competition just days before she sta rts competition just days before she starts her gcses. the 16—year—old took the title after playing the challenging piano concerto number two accompanied by the city of

rider increasing his lead yesterday to more than half a minute, crisper now over two minutes behind. —— chris froome. a heterosexual couple who want to be allowed to have a civil partnership instead of a wedding is at the supreme court today attempting to get the ban overturned. currently only same—sex couples can enter a civil partnership. they were set up in 2004 as a precursor to same—sex marriage, but charles keidan and rebecca steinfeld say not allowing them to do so breaches their human rights. let's speak first to clive coleman our legal correspondent. and we can speak with the couple themselves. charles keidan and rebecca steinfeld are outside the supreme court. and we also have with us david levesley — he's the social media editor at the i. he's gay and opposes a change in the law and martin loat — chair of the equal civil partnerships campaign who is in a civil partnership

himself with his partner which they got in the isle of man. thank you all for coming and, let's start by talking about the significance of this ruling today at the supreme court? what charles and rebecca are arguing is that gay couples now have two options to enter into a civil partnership or get married but heterosexual partners only have the option of marriage. they are committed couple but they have a deep—seated objection to manage, they regard it as being patriarchal, it does not reflect the nature of their relationship. so they aren't challenging this ban on heterosexual couples entering into civil partnerships, on the basis that it discriminates against them on the grounds of their sexual orientation and also it breaches their article eight rights under the human rights act to the private and family life.

the government position on this has a lwa ys the government position on this has always been, certainly was the last time before this came before the courts, that they had what they call a week and see policy. they wanted to see now that we have gay marriage what the ta ke—up to see now that we have gay marriage what the take—up was going to be in terms of civil partnerships, whether they would continue to be a viable institution. they have slightly and in very recent days, slightly blindsided the legal case in that they've issued a paper where they've said they now want to carry out research into that issue, the take—up of civil partnerships among 93v take—up of civil partnerships among gay couples who can get married but also the motivation and the man amongst heterosexual couples for civil partnerships. they want to look abroad and see what the is there. let's bring in charles and rebecca who are outside the supreme court. ok, the line is not working at the moment which is frustrating, ican at the moment which is frustrating, i can see them but they cannot hear us so we i can see them but they cannot hear us so we will bring them in a

moment. let's bring in david and martin then if i can, explain to me why you felt it was so important to have a civil partnership rather than a marriage? you mentioned in the introduction i am a heterosexual man who has been in a relationship 26 years and we went to the isle of man to secure our civil partnership as it is the only place in the british isles where you can get one. a bit like charles and rebecca, a couple we support through this campaign, clear and i we support through this campaign, clearand i do we support through this campaign, clear and i do not believe marriage is right for us, we see it as a patriarchal institution and do not like the idea of having to take a bow, to pledge the quality of our relationship in the eyes of another party, in this case the state. look at the small print people say there's not many differences between civil partnerships and manages and legally and technically there are not that bad and sale no less in a re ce nt not that bad and sale no less in a recent speech the point when gay marriage was introduced a lot of gay couples who could have had civil

partnership opted for gay marriage. there is an emotional and cultural and psychological difference between the institutions so given that civil partnerships already exist why cannot the heterosexual couples who wa nt cannot the heterosexual couples who want to enter into that kind of union go ahead? david, doctor martin. fundamentally i agree with a lot of what you have said. what this case has shown is there is an appetite for a form of marriage which breaks a lot of the problematic conditions in which a marriage puts a couple. what i have found problematic from the beginning is the idea that civil partnerships are seen is the idea that civil partnerships are seen suddenly as a good option when the lgbt community fought for many years for them to be seen, for us many years for them to be seen, for us to get the right of gay marriage when civil partnerships were seen as a less than, which traditionally a lot of the rights afforded to the lg bt lot of the rights afforded to the lgbt community have been less than

but similar too. so i agree there should be a version of marriage for people who understand this is an outdated or problematic system... for some people, there are plenty people watching who do like marriage. absolutely and to, i would bea marriage. absolutely and to, i would be a bad lgbt campaigner if i believe people should not be able to marry and be with partners for who and how they love. but i think it's and how they love. but i think it's a dangerous precedent to be set in the acceptance of civil partnerships in its current form, in the form it was when it was introduced in 2004. when bermuda got rid of gay marriage again it's problematic to think civil partnerships are a fine or the same as when there are fundamental differences and historically they we re differences and historically they were designed as a less than option. i want to bring in charles and rebecca outside the supreme court andi rebecca outside the supreme court and i think we have been able to connect, i don't know which of you one stands this but explain why marriage does not fit you and why a

civil partnership is right for you? charlie and i see each other as partners in life and we want to have the legal recognition and the financial protection of being partners in law. we see each other very much as partners rather than as husband and wife and that is why we wa nt to husband and wife and that is why we want to form a civil partnership and why we're here at the court today. so is it more that marriage does not fit and you want something else which gives you all of those legal rights or is it specifically you think the civil partnership is perfect? it's the right institution for us. we know marriage is valuable for us. we know marriage is valuable for many people but for us a civil partnership, we see ourselves as partners, partners as parents in the way we structure our relationship with our small children. the example you want to set to them. that is why a civil partnership seems right and it seems absurd given the institution already exists, that it should not be extended to everybody.

that could be done relatively simply, add limited cost and would be good for families across the country. has this been an oversight by the government, did they think nobody would be interested in having a civil partnership amongst heterosexual couples? it's more of the way the changes have come about because initially you had civil partnerships for gay couples. there was a partnerships for gay couples. there wasa ten partnerships for gay couples. there was a ten year time gap and that was the only option for gay couples then you got gay marriage. there are 3.2 million cohabiting couples in the country ahead to sexual couples. it has long been a real concern that those this case i think has real significance, not just for rebecca and charles but also for that whole group because, i'm not pretending

for a moment all those 3.2 million couples would want to enter into a civil partnership but it would provide another option and provide legal protections. the significance is quite large. it affects a very large potential group of people. are you expecting this to go through today, how confident are you martin that the government... it is the first day of the two the hearing and then there will have to be a due process but the interesting backdrop is that the government agrees, in february, that inequality cannot continue indefinitely and they would start to do something about it. but on the last week did they play their hand very quietly with this paper and we have a new women's equality minister who is also the international development secretary, the third minister on this brief since february. doing this long winded research and consultation process which would not possibly

conclude, the government are moving very slowly on their own timescale. we think the court should look at it with a keen eye and asked the government is committed to breaking the inequality we have. one of the options which arises from this government paper is the can equalise down, if they do away with civil partnerships altogether and there is only marriage then that's something that will not please charles and rebecca and many of their supporters. 63,000 gay couples are taken up civil partnerships since 2004. the government... go ahead charles... i was just 2004. the government... go ahead charles... i wasjust going to say it would just not please asked if the government was to equalise down, there are have wanted to convert their relationship to marriage. stonewall have come out and said

that the only way to go is to extend. we have a coalition of support from them right through to the opposite end of the spectrum and people that recognise the value of this. 127,000 people have signed our position and it underscores the value of support for what would be a simple and popular measure that the government could quite easily introduce. david would you support the government if it decided to scrap civil partnerships and maybe bring in something else?m scrap civil partnerships and maybe bring in something else? if there was something new introduced, that would be delightful. but at the same timel would be delightful. but at the same time i don't want civil partnerships to be scrapped, couples have made conscious decisions to be in this relationship and i think that's legitimate for them. if they scrap them it would not mean they don't exist it just means them it would not mean they don't exist itjust means going forward people would not be able to get them, presumably? in that situation i feel pretty good about that, for mel i feel pretty good about that, for me ijust feel the idea of saying that civil partnerships are an noble

and beautiful thing that we gay people have been hiding away as one of our own people have been hiding away as one of our own treasures people have been hiding away as one of our own treasures is for me problematic. i think there needs to be an option which extends the right to couples who cohabit but don't wa nt to couples who cohabit but don't want to get married but i feel like taking something that existed as a stopgap ruling for us is not comfortable... i would like rebecca to come in and speak to david about that because i can see she wants to. david, i can understand why you have that view of civil partnerships in the uk context but i would say several partnerships, registered partnerships and civil unions have a wide global history, created precisely to provide in some cases a right to those who cohabit or don't wa nt to right to those who cohabit or don't want to marry for what ever reason is, expense, conscience, a personal experience of marriage. one needs to ta ke experience of marriage. one needs to take a broader view on this and recognise that even though civil

partnerships in this country were arguably created some might say as a second—class social institution to forestall the advancement of same—sex marriage or more sympathetically whereas as far as the public and politicians were prepared to go at the time, there is demand among same—sex couples to maintain them and enter into them and they provide a wonderful solution to kabul to like charlie and myself and hundreds of thousands of supporters to have legal status, recognition and protection without having to marry, why reinvent something even something exists, all we need to do is remove six words from the existing act. different sex couples whether they are heterosexual or bisexual can enter into civil partnerships as well. david, i will let you briefly respond. those at fair points and i don't speak for everybody in the lg bt don't speak for everybody in the lgbt community, it's very much a personal view and i fully understand people who disagree with me but for

me, in some ways it's somewhat fanciful that in the current system we can invent something better overnight that fits this desire that people have for a form of marriage that's different to a legal wedding as it currently is but i wish that something could exist without the context that i hold when i think of supple partnerships which is something offered to us but taught me that i was less than people who could have marriage and i think that history and context is never going to be scrubbed away and i would like there to be something just as good but could be offered to people who have very legitimate desires but i just feel this has too much tainting for me to do that. thank you all for coming in, i'm so grateful. coming up... the head of m15 or make a speech warning ahead of islamic state wants to create devastating and more complex attacks in europe and we will take some of that life. it was a night of stars and surprises at the tv bafta awards last night — they were all out on the red carpet at the festival hall

in central london. so many big names from the small screen up for prizes — and a few of the lesser known too — with prizes across categories including drama, entertainment and leading soap. rising star molly windsor beat hollywood heavyweights claire foy and thandie newton to clinch leading actress for her role in three girls, a drama about three victims of the rochdale child sex abuse scandal. sir david attenborough's blue planet team won the must see moment prize, voted on by viewers, for the scene showing a mother pilot whale. the bbc‘s former war correspondent kate adie picked up a bafta fellowship. there were definitely some sharp intakes of break, like when love island won best reality show award and a moving moment when rio ferdinand picked up an award for the depiction of coping with his wife's death from cancer — and the wry moment when britain's got talent won entertainment,

but presenter declan donnelly went up on stage once again without ant mcpartlin to collect the award. let's have a look at some of the best bits. sorry! i had to take my shoes off because i was in absolute agony. ten quid from ebay, these were! the worst thing to come out of this is that i get quite emotional now. let's speak now to emma bullimore, film and tv critic who went to the baftas and can talk us through the red carpet moments and acceptance speeches.

and sara wallis, a tv critic for the daily mirror who has been watching all the nominees closely throughout the year. was there a different feel to last night? on the red carpet everyone was wearing times up badges, eve ryo ne was wearing times up badges, everyone wanted to make a statement at the ceremony itself, we thought the acceptance speeches would be more political than they were. super kings in her opening monologue was outspoken which was excellent but in the speeches themselves that wasn't really about that, there was a lot of first—time winners who wanted to ta ke of first—time winners who wanted to take their moment and not make a statement. understandable. and your highlight? i thought superkids did a brilliantjob. highlight? i thought superkids did a brilliant job. some were not so happy. it's about being a bit provocative, though, that role. people were worried that it was

dumbed down, the event, i don't know if you felt being there, very had the love ireland narrator doing the voice—over is, lots of surprise wins, line of duty losing out, look planet lost out on award, a lot of fans on social media worrying that the is not what it used to be.“ that snobbery to say it's dumbing down, love ireland is a massive show with huge viewing figures.“ down, love ireland is a massive show with huge viewing figures. it was a massive sensation, radio 4 were doing features on, that had to be reflect that. it would have been so easy to get an award to claire foy who everyone wanted to win that they are not afraid of making unpopular decisions and recognising something like three girls difficult to watch but superbly done. and that is the point of the bafta, these are the best programmes, not necessarily the most popular. line of duty, i am a

big fan, nominated but never one. and claire foy as well, never won a major award for that role. every award is done by a different panel. so there is no awareness, is that good or bad? people shouldn't win just because that show hasn't won before but look back at the history books, benedict cumberbatch has not won for sherlock. it's just the way it goes. blue planet one for that moment... which was heartbreaking, i cried watching it but i cry at everything. but moment for me, i am so everything. but moment for me, i am so pleased at once because of lost out on specialist factual but it deserved that. remind people if they haven't seen it. the mother pilot whale and was carrying around its dead babyjust whale and was carrying around its dead baby just in whale and was carrying around its dead babyjust in grief and it died i think if you days earlier and did

not want to let it go, it was footage of that. the reason it was ata footage of that. the reason it was at a big moment cause of the plastic pollution issue it highlighted. it's partly national conversation. that shows you the power of television, this beautiful film, it shows you the power of television, this beautifulfilm, it has been mentioned in parliament. that's why it had to be recognised. one moment which i found quite touching was when rio ferdinand won his award and it was a really poignant speech, actually, acceptance speech. he mentioned it in self, sportsmen having to be macho and not talk about their feelings, the fact he has done this documentary and spoken about his wife, it's very powerful and you know, when he came to elect the award, you could hear it in his voice, he was struggling and it was lovely to see, difficult for him but... lots of people welling up in the audience and that sparked a conversation about male mental health, of which have been lots of other comments. what was lovely he said although i find this difficult

and here with my new girlfriend, my children have found happiness and gives hope to some people watching and struggling through their own grief. i want us to have a listen, the biggest award of the night, the fellowship one to the bbc veteran reporter kate adie, let's watch. it's a wonderfuljob to do, i've have marvellous colleagues, great support from the bbc but over all of those years i've learned one very special thing. it's an absolute privilege to be a reporter. thank you. seemed to go down well in the room. so fantastic to see someone recognised his work so hard, achieved so much but not talked about at the time in these circles, not always on the red carpet, that's what award ceremonies are really for and it was a beautiful story. she

got me intojournalism, i saw her in tiananmen square and i decided i wa nted tiananmen square and i decided i wanted to show people what was going on around the world. sean bean, was that unexpected? i thought it was deserved, he was brilliant in broken, he was up against tim pigott smith, the first—ever posthumous nomination, whether people thought tim pigott smith would get it, i thought sean bean was marvellous. he made a lovely speech, someone of his star power, it obviously meant something to him, that is the joy of the baftas, they want these awards. it's a moment and someone's career. we've got to talk about and and deck, deck was there, and was not after your history driving offence, saturday night takeaway i thought many people expected to win but britain's got talent one, was that a political decision? it was a strange

category, strictly come dancing not in the category itself. so that was a snob. usually hand and deck would come up together to do a speech, you would expect deck to say something. he did not do any red carpet interviews, he felt that was important to be there but it is not right to speak about it at the moment. it is found. they are there together, always, they hang out together, always, they hang out together at the after party. get back soon. i've got to ask you, i bet you were delighted jane mcdonald 14 cruising, but it's not called that, i've just given 14 cruising, but it's not called that, i'vejust given it 14 cruising, but it's not called that, i've just given it that name? who ever thought we would say bafta winnerjane who ever thought we would say bafta winner jane mcdonald? i who ever thought we would say bafta winnerjane mcdonald? i think she's brilliant but for her to win the ba fta for brilliant but for her to win the bafta for her show and then line of duty misses out. some of that was topsy—turvy. duty misses out. some of that was topsy-turvy. she is one of us, a

normal person, i thought she should win. everyone loves her, big deal for channel five. we talk about netflix getting in amongst the awards, but channel five. that was a surprise for me. good one? i don't know. time for the latest weather. a glorious start of the day for many of us, many of us have blue skies. this is the scene in sheffield. and in essex. lots of sunshine. lots of clu b in essex. lots of sunshine. lots of club are further north and west you or, affecting the east coast of england, east anglia. and the south—east. really, for most of us, blue skies and will continue to stay sunny for most of us throughout the course of today. workload across northern ireland, the west of scotland, with cloud moving its way through east anglia and the south—east, the smallest chance of catching an isolated shower. elsewhere, not a great deal of

change to what you have already. lighter winds compared to the weekend, feeling warmer, temperatures up to 18—20d in england and wales. a little fresher north and wales. a little fresher north and west. overnight coastal areas will have misty and murky conditions, cloud here and there, that could stretch in for tuesday morning. temperatures under clear skies between 4—7d, in the major towns and cities temperatures into the high single figures perhaps double figures, not quite as cold as last night. tuesday, cloud and mist will bring back to the coast, for england and wales, it will warm up on tuesday compared to today, scotla nd on tuesday compared to today, scotland and northern ireland it will be a little bit fresher, temperatures 12—13, england and wales 19—22d. fresher weather towards the north west because of

this weather front, cold front moving south and east through wednesday, introducing these fresher cooler conditions for many of us on wednesday, temperatures dropping by a view degrees. a bit of cloud associated with that weather front in central and southern england, no rain associated with it. sunny weather further north and west, those temperatures down by a view degrees, 13—16d, perhaps 17 degrees. for the rest of the week, high pressure firmly in charge. that means things will be settled, mostly dry, some bright and sunny spells for many of us as we go to the end of the week. temperatures gradually rising as we go into the weekend. for the week ahead, mostly dry, lots of warm sunshine, a bit cooler by midweek, but for the weekend, temperatures once again getting into the high teens and low 20s. hello it's monday, it's ten o'clock, i'm chloe tilley. figures obtained by this programme

reveal that more than half of uk police forces are reporting victims of crime to the home office for immigration enforcement. we will bring you an exclusive report on how women who have been attacked and even right are being arrested themselves. it's shocking to know that victims of crime are being seen and treated as criminals just because of their status. i think it's something we are coming across routinely now and it's as a result of theresa may's hostile environment policy. i have heard of people being the subject of rape, being afraid to come forward to report that which means the perpetrator is still at large which is not in anybody's interest. and the us is preparing to open its

home office for immigration enforcement. the figures have been revealed to this programme through the freedom of information act. can planners say the hostile environment policy means seriously vulnerable people are not reporting crime. the home office says it would support vulnerable migrants regardless of their immigration status. there's been a sharp rise in the number of children under 11 referred for mental health treatment by schools in the last four years. data obtained by children's charity the nspcc shows that schools in england have made more than 120,000 rebels for specialist help tween 2014 and 2015. with more than half of these from primary schools. the government says its reform will transform services for children. clashes have erupted along the border with israel the head of the controversial opening of the us opening embassy in

good morning again, we are going to start by talking about liverpool because what a season for mohamed salah, jurgen klopp says he still has room for improvement however despite his record—breaking season. his 32nd premier league goal was a new record for a 38 game season, their 4—0 win over brighton helping them to the top four finish. afterwards the egyptian received the golden boot having beaten harry kane to the honour. what a season, what a player. he scored goals from different angles, different situations, always in the game. and can improve so much. a record for manchester city as well, they became the first side to reach a hundred points ina the first side to reach a hundred points in a premier league season, they only just points in a premier league season, they onlyjust made it. jesus scoring the only goal of the game at

southampton, deep into injury time. the manager pep guardiola afterwards called his players magnificent. it's massive, 100 points in the premier league. you cannot imagine. it's a lot of points. maybe this record will be broken but it will be difficult because there are many and teams to do that have to do many, many good things. arsene wenger may have been under pressure to stand aside from some arsenal fans but he was given a very warm sendoff at huddersfield yesterday in his final match. both sets of supporters rose in the 22nd minute of the match to mark his 22 years of the club. he signed off with a 1—0 victory and says he will be able to say goodbye to the sport completely.” says he will be able to say goodbye to the sport completely. i will stay in football, you know, if i am managing a team are not, i am addicted. i don't think that can be cheered now. it's too late. celtic

got their hands on the scottish premiership trophy yesterday and had a hand in the race for second place as well. it went to aberdeen who won at celtic, nudging rangers down to third. it did not spoil the occasion for the champions, this their second league title in a row. lewis hamilton said he felt rejuvenated after winning the spanish grand prix, he managed to avoid the chaos in the opening lap which wiped out three car is stopped he said although it was his 64th victory he still felt like it was his first. he is now 17 points clear in the championship. it's a rest day today so championship. it's a rest day today so overall leader simon yates can ta ke so overall leader simon yates can take stock of just so overall leader simon yates can take stock ofjust how so overall leader simon yates can take stock of just how well so overall leader simon yates can take stock ofjust how well he is doing before a final assault. he increased his lead to more than half a minute after winning yesterday's ninth stage. chris froome is almost two and a half minutes behind, the

race finishes in rome on the 27th of may. tiger woods might have fallen short at the players championship in florida but he has proven he is back this time. he had a great weekend, challenging the winner webb simpson on the final day. he says he's feeling extremely positive, many pundits believe he could yet 15th major. what a comeback that would be. that all the sport for now, more later in the hour. we will be showing you a film that deals with immigration enforcement, many of you getting in touch with us about that. patrick says to detain a vulnerable woman who is victim to a crime and subject them to deportation is not just shocking but immoral. and

e—mail says what has this country become since the brexit vote, we are descending into becoming a nasty, racist and intolerant nation, it's very bad to see. another saying i fail to see the issue, immigration law is still the law, break it and face the consecration. this person claimed asylum to avoid deportation and got released, if she is legit she can stay, sense to me like the system is working. get in touch with your thoughts. we will be talking about this in greater depth in the next few minutes but andrew parker at the head of m15 is in berlin and has just started making a speech on security. he is talking about the continued threat from so—called islamic state. this is his first key speech and we can have a listen. thirsty current threat landscape, we are living in a period where europe faces sustained threats and sustained hostile activity from

certain states. let me be clear, by this i don'tjust mean spies spying on other spies, spies following each other around in the dead of night, i mean the deliberate targeted malign activity intended to undermine our free and open and democratic societies. that underpins our security and prosperity. the chief protagonist among these hostile actors today is the russian government. notice i do not see russia we have the greatest respect for the people of russia, for their proud culture and long history. i myself studied the russian language at school. we have no desire to escalate tensions or go back to the tense and dangerous times europe lived through during the cold war.

berlin and more than most cities knows what that felt like. one of the kremlin's central and entirely admirable aims is to build a russian greatness on the world stage. there are ways open for it to do that as pa rt are ways open for it to do that as part of the rules —based order. but it's repeated choices have been to pursue that game through aggressive and pernicious actions by its military and intelligence services. instead of becoming a respected great nation, it risks becoming a more isolated pariah. we want cordial relations with the russian government and for it to live up to its international obligations, taking its place on the world stage in the rules —based order. we look forward to that day. but our respect forward to that day. but our respect for the russian people and desire for the russian people and desire for productive relationship cannot and must not stop us from calling

out and pushing back on the kremlin's fragrant breaches of international rules. leaders across europe and the national world have taken a stand. they have sent a strong message that the first use of a nerve agent in europe since the second world war, and supporting and protecting the syrian regime's terrific use of chemical weapons to kill and terrific use of chemical weapons to killand maim terrific use of chemical weapons to kill and maim civilians is simply not acceptable —— the syrian regime's horrific use of chemical weapons. the taking of territory from a another sovereign european country by force, the crimea, cannot be acceptable. interfering with legitimate democratic elections in the us and france is not acceptable. attempting to mount a coup against the elected government of montenegro is not acceptable. and neither is

unleashing cyber attacks of the sort you've already heard about this morning against our countries and institutions including the attacks you have heard about against a german institutions like the british tag here in berlin. our adverse surveys have proven to be early adopters of technology, particularly internet technologies. those extraordinary and exciting advances that increasingly power our economy and our lives. age—old attempts at covert influence and propaganda have been supercharged in online disinformation. which can be churned out at massive scale and pace and little cost. the aim is to sow doubt through flat denials of the truth, to dilate truth with falsehood, divert attention to fake stories and do all they can to divide alliances. ba refa ced do all they can to divide alliances. barefaced lying seems to be the

default mode, coupled with ridicule of critics. the russian state's well practised blending of this information and distortion along with new and old forms of espionage, high levels of cyber attacks, military force and criminal thuggery is what is meant these days by the term hybrid threats. in the uk we saw this approach again in salisbury. the reckless attempted assassination of sergei skripal using a highly lethal nerve agent put numerous lives at risk including that of his daughter. it was only through near miraculous medical intervention that his and his daughter's lives were saved and wider preventive action was able to be taken. the attack was swiftly

followed by a cynical and distasteful information campaign to sow confusion and doubt. the russian state's media outlets and representatives have propagated at least 30 different so—called explanations in their efforts to mislead the world and their own people. one media survey in the uk found that two thirds of social media output at the peak of the salisbury story came from russian government controlled accounts. whatever nonsense they conjure up the case is clear. similarly after the case is clear. similarly after the sickening attack on the people of doom in syria the russian state machine on out a torrent of lies aimed at undermining international consensus and well established systems to protect innocent civilians from chemical wednesday. our chris sees, our societies and

are bonds of partnership or strong but we must not be complacent about the longer term potential impact of this activity, whether by those in russia, in iran or beyond. —— douma. on the international rules —based order that supports our security and prosperity. we are all used to living in free societies with democratic governments that operate ona democratic governments that operate on a strong foundation of openness, integrity and accountability within a system of law with strong checks and balances. that is the context for m15 as well. but all of that is entirely alien territory to our adverse rees. along with state—level hostile activity as we have heard this morning, europe faces an intense, unrelenting and multidimensional terrorist threat. by multidimensional terrorist threat. by alan greaves continues to pose the most acute threat of al-qaeda

and other islamist terror groups haven't gone away. with the police we are also monitoring the trajectory of extreme right—wing terrorism as we see instances of rearing its ugly head, our is equally firm. —— da'esh. the sickening impact, shocked and discussed of terrorism has been felt across europe, just two days ago paris saw another brutal attack and since 2016, there have been 45 separate attacks across seven european countries, the uk, germany, france, belgium, spain, sweden and finland have all seen attacks. this of course includes the despicable attack on december 2016, in which 12 people lost their lives in berlin.

it includes the disgusting attacks the british public supper at last year. —— the british public suffered. it is coming close to the first—year anniversary of the attack on the manchester arena, 22 people losing their lives, many more left with life changing physical and psychological injuries, these people many of whom were young children we re many of whom were young children were simply enjoying an evening out ata were simply enjoying an evening out at a concert with families and friends. the 13 people killed in two attacks in london last year were also just attacks in london last year were alsojust going attacks in london last year were also just going about their everyday lives. they were from the uk, spain, france, the united states, australia, canada and romania. many of them indiscriminately killed and injured were citizens of our flourishing and diverse european democracies. we remember those who

lost their lives in these senseless attacks across europe. i know that mi5 attacks across europe. i know that m15 and our european partners feel the impact personally as well as professionally. it redoubles are assured termination and energy to defeat this menace and the threat it hoses to our societies. this unprecedented temple of attack planning shows no sign of the baiting, in the uk alone since the westminster attack in march last year, with the police, we have awarded a further 12 islamist terror plots. 12 occasions when we have good reason to believe a terrorist attack would otherwise have taken place in our country. that brings the total number of disrupted attacks in the uk since 23rd team to 25. this shift in thread is of course driven by the murderous

ideology of da'esh. whilst it has lost its false caliphate in its strongholds in syria and iraq tackling the group as a movement will require sustained international focus for years to come. as i speak today they are seeking to regroup and the threat seems likely to persist. i describe the terror threat as three—dimensional because plots germinate at home, abroad and online, terrorism operates across those three spaces. online da'esh pumps out its vile propaganda and practical construction. it's twisted ideology continues to influence vulnerable and violent individuals across europe and beyond to use crude but deadly methods to kill, from stabbings to vehicle attacks, from stabbings to vehicle attacks, from bullets to bombs, from hard to soft targets. in surrey and other

spaces soft targets. in surrey and other s pa ces of low soft targets. in surrey and other spaces of low or no governments da'esh still aspires to generate and direct devastating and more complex attacks. terrorism is not new but amplified and accelerated by the reach and tempo of technological change but it is more global and technological and offer different order of pace and intensity than we have seen in our careers. that was andrew parker, of m15 in berlin making that speech on security. he was talking about the situation with russia, saying they had made flag ra nt russia, saying they had made flagrant breaches of international rules, they want to have a working relationship with russia but that wasn't possible, they had a ba refa ced wasn't possible, they had a barefaced lying default mode is what he called it, he went on to talk about the manchester attacks and westminster attacks last year saying

mi5 westminster attacks last year saying m15 has managed to thwart a further 12 attacks and he said they had a belief those attacks would have materialised if they hadn't have been intercepted by m15 and he said that meant they had been 25 attempts to attack the uk since 2013, all of which had been supported by m15. we'll be talking about this later with our security correspondent frank gardner and a security expert. still to come... kid a scheme to wait nursery school age children combat obesity? more than half of uk police forces are reporting victims of crime to the home office for immigration enforcement. one woman beaten in the street by her partner ended up arrested herself. in another case a women who reported being raped to police was also arrested. the figures have been

revealed through the freedom of information act. a former police officer said these victims are ‘low hanging fruit‘ to meet immigration targets and that forces have no clear policy on this. campaigners say the government's ‘hostile environment‘ policies mean seriously vulnerable people are not reporting crime. catrin nye reports. i was treated like a slave. he told me, "that is why i brought you here, so you can cook and clean for me and get beaten by me." sara came to the uk with her partner, a british citizen. she wanted to come with a valid visa. it was only when she tried to escape from her trafficker, when she ran out onto the street, he chased after her, and beat her up in front ofa

after her, and beat her up in front of a member of the public. who then called the police. they arrested the perpetrator. he took her to hospital because of the severity of her injuries, she had bruises and cuts all over her body. sara was released from hospital and taken to a hospital but she was arrested and taken to europe's wood immigration centre to be deported. it's something we are coming across routinely now. as a result of the hostile environment policy that has been brought into effect by the immigration act. we did freedom of information requests to all uk police forces to find out which ones refer victims of crime like sarah and witnesses to home office for immigration enforcement. we found 27 uk police forces report people. three police forces said they did not do it including police scotland, the rest were on fire, did not reply or said they had no data. it's a

terrible term but these are low hanging fruit, vulnerable people, easy to take off your list if you have a target to meet. it's much easier and a woman comes for it who has been sexually assaulted, to say we are investigating this and we will arrest you and be sent to a detention centre. i've heard of people being the subject of a serious sexual assault being afraid to come forward and report that which means the perpetrator is still at large, that's not an anybody's interest, it seems to me we should have a viable between the police operations and immigration officials. this lawyer stopped tempered by‘s deportation order and she has applied for asylum in the uk, she says she fears she will be killed if she returns to her home country. he was going to kill me here, what is going to stop him doing it back home for it they kill you and no one ever knows? we can now talk to lucila granada — she's the director of the latin american women's rights service who campaign on this issue

and works with victims. dal babu — a former police superintendant with met police and sir vince cable the leader of the liberal democrats. nick clegg highlighted move to make lives for those in the uk border the gold and wanted more done to bear down on illegal emigration. tell me how many cases to you here like this? is it common? it's very common, we support survivors of violence, many of them are in situations of domestic violence and four bc is many women who come to us facing threats of deportation by gillian. in many cases similar to the video, they aren't made undocumented purposefully to use this immigration status as a tool.

what is what are the rules that police officers are told to abide by. you saw from the report, some forces report and some don't. you need to have a degree of compassion, women on average will be attacked 32 times before they contact the police and what we are hearing with undocumented women is they are vulnerable, it's a deliberate policy by the perpetrator, the men of violence, and those men will do to other women as well. we need to have a policy that protects all of us but also protects the women, we don't have a situation where because of the hostile environment people see this as a way of taking of the numbers, arresting the individuals and perhaps sending them back home for a gable end up being in more danger, maybe being killed. so you saying if the lease officers go to

an incident and they discover that a victim is actually here illegally, what should they do, turn a blind eye? not at all, i am not saying that and police we are seeing in the united states the same mindsets proliferating abuse rather than containing it. let me read you the statement to pick up on what you said, it says following the cases highlighted in our film they provided unequivocal advice to forces that victims of crime should be treated as victims first and foremost, only were they existed or other law enforcement agencies including immigration enforcement indicated the person posed an

immediate risk to others, should an immediate risk to others, should an immediate risk to others, should an immediate risk come on immediate arrest to be made which is what you we re arrest to be made which is what you were saying. however, people watching this and people getting in touch as saying that if somebody is here illegally, i am sorry even if you are a victim of crime the reality is you should not be here and the authorities need to act on it. we need to remember the primary aim of the police, they are there to protect everyone come to keep people safe and protect victims. to stop the perpetrators, prevent future crimes. we need to remember we are talking about not only the cases that we know about but also all the women, all the victims were out there, still no in during violence because they are too afraid to come forward and we are also talking about all the perpetrators that are still out there are protected by these policies. this is about murder and suppression, two women murdered each week from domestic violence and what we should not be is creating a

situation where women are frightened to come forward. all that will happen is those women will be murdered. that is the reality. this should be about murder suppression, ina lot should be about murder suppression, in a lot of ways it's as simple as that. what is shocking is that the police council have got very vague directions to the police forces across the country and i think your report has shone a light on how shocking that advice has been. police officers will do what they are told and if that advice and that guidance is not there you have a situation where a rape victim who has been examined in the most intimate way is then taken out of there and thrown into a detention centre. it's shocking. as a country we should be ashamed of that happening. i don't think anyone is suggesting you do not follow immigration rules and regulations but you do it in a compassionate way. to go back to your original question about public feeling and illegal immigration, the argument is

posed as it always really clear—cut but there is a grey area. a lot of people are technically illegal but actually they are not, papers have been lost, sometimes in the home office. someone came to me on friday night, living in the country for 40 years, came from bangladesh as a 12—year—old. his wife and children are british, he's travelled back and forward. but somebody has lost the document relating to his original entry so he is classified as illegal and the system wants to report him. in another case a young woman whose child who was being operated on at great ormond street because she was preoccupied with the heart operation, she did not fill the form incorrectly for extending her leave, she is technically illegal. these cases need to be on merit, the idea that you can run these people up and send them abroad is inhumane and fundamentally undermining the rule of law. thank you, i just want to read a home office statement, it

says victims of crime must be treated first and foremost as victims when individuals are bound to have no basis in the uk we carefully consider the details of the case before taking an enforcement action. still to come, tense scenes as the us prepares to open its new embassy injerusalem. the israel government is overjoyed but palestinians are furious. we look at the implications of the move. children in nursery classes are being weighed as part of a new scheme to help families avoid their children from becoming overweight or obese. the bbc has been given exclusive access to the initiative. school pupils in england are already measured twice at the age of four and in yearsix measured twice at the age of four and in year six at the age of ten but in manchester city were 6000 children under the age of 18 are severely obese they are experimenting with measuring children as young as three. every

year. to help them stay on track. so is that going to work? let's speak now to founder of the weight loss camp morelife which runs programmes for 8—17 year—olds in leeds paul stevenson was an estimated 51 stone. he's since lost 28 stone. and in bournemouth we are joined and in bournemouth we arejoined by 22—year—old who at the age of 11 weighed 13 stone and was classified as obese. thank you all forjoining us. as obese. thank you all forjoining us. i want to ask you first of all, why do you think that your weight got so out of control? that's a very difficult question for me to answer. obviously, me being young, yeah, that was part of the parental figure but also for me it was a

psychological thing. i could not actually understand that i was full, that i could stop eating. for me the weightjust continued to pile on. for me. personally. what about paul, for you, some people will be staggered that anyone can get to 51 stone, how did you find yourselves in that situation? i lost my mother andl in that situation? i lost my mother and i did not deal with it and due to being quite young at the time i fell into a state of depression and it pretty much engulfed my life. i find solace in food, take aways, fizzy pop. you are always of the mindset that you can lose the weight when you want to but i was not ready to and my weight got out of control andl to and my weight got out of control and i became a housebound recluse because of it. do you think if there

had been intervention earlier, we are hearing about this scheme in manchester where they are weighing three and four—year—olds yearly, would that have helped? to be honest, i was not morbidly obese as a child, mine came on in my mid 205 but to be honest i don't think it's a great idea. children ultimately need to be children and they don't cook their meals, they don't make their meals may be a bit of education into the parents and nutrition would do a betterjob. would you agree with that? hundred and 10%. i don't feel that any child should have to see... ijust don't feel like a child should have to see ways to lose weight, it's a very psychological thing for me, personally. you think it is damaging? hundred and 10%. for me, just recently, my own nephew was

told by an nhs gp that he was morbidly obese and the repercussions of that, he went to school and was hiding a pack of biscuits he had to. he started using phrases which are commonly found in swimming world and things like that and he's years old. in light of what has been said, do you think this is a good move in manchester, to start weighing children every year? we already measured children regularly from when they are born to the second birthday and then we measure them at age five and at age 11. so it would seem age five and at age 11. so it would seem logical to them, but we have to move seem logical to them, but we have to m ove pa st seem logical to them, but we have to move past logic and look to reality and the reality is every year we measure! million children and we

identify that in the uk there are about a severely obese children. there are about 2.8 million obese children and there are about two and a half million overweight children. at the moment we have the best monitoring system in place, measuring these children at age five and 11 and it's the best scheme anywhere on the planet. the fundamental problem is we don't do anything with that. what we have heard from lee and paul is an excellent example of why this will not work because fundamentally knowing you have a problem but not being able to do anything about it is the real issue. imagine a parent at school being told their child was being, not doing well in maths or imagine you went to the gp and the gp said you got cancer and then nothing was done about either of those things. a5 nothing was done about either of those things. as a parent you find out they've got a poor maths score and you say can you help me with that, but this girl cannot do anything. i'm interested to bring

leah back into it, did your mum get any guidance when you are overweight at 11? was she told by the school you were overweight, given any support? my mum is, sorry, she's an overweight lady herself so she could recognise just by looking at me that my weight wasn't, you know, like the people i went to school with. in terms of support, no. she didn't receive much support from the school at all. the turning point was at age 11 when i saw camp on tv and it was my idea to go. so that was the big change review. thank you so much for talking to us. your experience those

are welcome, use the hashtag victoria live. it's one single move that could cause repercussions in the region for years to come. something many in israel have waited for as much as the palestianians hoped wouldn't happen. washington is moving its embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem. the decision was a key pledge in donald trump's election campaign and today it opens, to coincide with the 70th anniversary of israel and it regards jerusalem as its ‘eternal‘ capital. the palestinians claim part ofjerusalem as the capital of a future state for them. before we speak to our guests, here's the situation explained. the united states is opening its new embassy in jerusalem. the the united states is opening its new embassy injerusalem. the move is controversial because of jerusalem's history. the city is sacred to judaism, christianity and islam. and each religion has sites of great significance there. in 1947 the un decided jerusalem should be a special international city run by

the un. but that never happened. in 1948 jordan's forces occupied the old city and eastjerusalem. in 1967 israel captured east jerusalem from jordan. israel now regards all of jerusalem as its capital. the palestinians call eastjerusalem occupied territory. the palestinians say eastjerusalem occupied territory. the palestinians say east jerusalem should occupied territory. the palestinians say eastjerusalem should be the capital of a future palestinian state. because israel regards jerusalem as its capital it is customary for countries to put their embassies in the capital city. but due to the controversy surrounding jerusalem status most of decided not to. president trump made the decision to move the embassy a key election pledge. remove move will delight many israelis and infuriate palestinians. let's speak to ian black — who is a visiting senior fellow

at the lse middle east centre. he's also former middle east editorfor the guardian newspaper. and speaking to us from ourjerusalem bureau, dahlia scheindlin, from the israeli institute for regional foreign policies who conducts extensive public opinion research on the israeli—palestinian conflict and the peace process. what is the atmosphere like in israel, we took pictures of skirmishes along the border with israel, what is the mood where you are? the thing to keep in mind is there is a parallel reality going on between israeli dues and palestinians. things are pretty calm, a lot of trafficjams as security gets ready for this but

people are going about their business and are satisfied, saying this is a good thing, maybe it's a bit nerve—racking on a security level but for the most part this is wonderfulfor israel and level but for the most part this is wonderful for israel and everyone goes about their business. at the same time you have to realise there is activity going on which is not limited to jerusalem on is activity going on which is not limited tojerusalem on the palestinian side because this is seen as palestinian side because this is seen as such a provocative, provocation but also really a turning point of hopelessness for the palestinians and as a result we are already seeing there have been clashes all morning along the gaza border, the continuation of protests going on for weeks, dozens wounded. there is a lot of anticipation and anxiety that there will be violence in eastjerusalem anxiety that there will be violence in east jerusalem because anxiety that there will be violence in eastjerusalem because of that com pletely in eastjerusalem because of that completely different experience of what is happening today. i think typically the israeli jewish side is happy and calm and a little bit nervous but i think anyone who is

looking closely at the security situations and certainly the palestinians, many of them find this a moment of despair. give us the palestinian respective, if you will. thank you for having me on the programme. this is not a positive move, people are very angry but also very frightened at what could happen, especially east to resume residence, palestinians who have permanent residency status they have permanent residency status they have a very precarious situation and this will make situation worse, they don't know what might happen, it might lead to more of them having residency revoked. will certainly accelerate the annexation and colonisation of east jerusalem and i think that's what palestinians are mostly worried about and i think today we have to be careful about the language we use. the violence

that will happen is coming from israeli and soldiers and security forces who will be cracking down on palestinian protesters and the skirmishes you mentioned in gaza, it is not skirmishes, as protesters being gunned down by israeli snipers and the parlous denny and has already lost their life today in these protests. the atmosphere is mixed, it's angry, it's also very precarious and people wondering what is going to happen. and ijust wanted to mention, pick up on a point from the beginning of this programme, we went through the context of what is happening, this isn'tjust a context of what is happening, this isn't just a controversial move because of the historical significance of jerusalem, its controversial because of breaks international law, the us embassy is moving to a site in no man's land coal land that is considered occupied by amnesty international and by many other international organisations and i think that's very important to point out, it

isn't controversialjust because of history, its palestinian land... i'm keen for assault to have a conversation between the three of you and i want to bring in doctor ian black, let's talk about the timing of the move by president trump. the timing to be honest was designed to show that as he likes to say he delivers for his predecessors happened, there's been a long history of previous american president is promising to do this but not because they said it was contrary to american national security interests. trump did it la st security interests. trump did it last december. the timing today is extremely significant because today, yesterday to be precise with the 70th anniversary of the creation of israel in 1948 but it's also when palestinians mark what they call, the creation of this real meant for them, it feels like yes, a gift to israeli jews, the vast majority of

who welcomed the spot for the palestinians it's like rubbing salt in the wind, especially at a time when both of the other speakers pointed out the hopes for any kind of progress towards peace are at an historic low, it's a desperately bad situation in terms of moving forward. so you're saying you think this will have what effect of whatever peace process is left? there isn't a peace process at all and that's not all the fault of donald trump, it's fashionable to blame him, there happened been peace talks between israel and palestine since march 2004, john kerry the us secretary of state then basically gave up. nobody had any high hopes that donald trump's arrival in the white house would make a difference but it has made a difference in a very negative way. his decision on jerusalem again was greeted with jubilation on the israeli side but the palestinian side of was a disaster, they were being completely and utterly ignored, israel was

being given something, jerusalem, it has to be pointed out is arguably the most contentious issue the heart of this conflict. i want to bring you in again, many european union leaders and ambassadors are not being involved in the proceedings today at all, they are firmly opposed to that. yes, i want to correct just one point, opposed to that. yes, i want to correctjust one point, the last peace negotiations were conducted in 2014, the entered. at the point is the same, the peace negotiations have been barren for a very long time and this puts, it makes a decision controversial not only because what it symbolises for the past and breaks international law but for the future of the peace process. you are right, this is divisive on an international level, yesterday there was a preliminary ceremony, the prime minister acting in his capacity as foreign minister posted a preliminary ceremony thanking president trump and they invited the entire diplomatic

community and only about half of the diplomats should have, pretty notably 24—hour to 28 european countries did not send a representative, russia, india, china did not send them, this is an indication that many in the international community are very sceptical about this policy and do not want to be involved at least at this point although we have seen some other countries, guatemala and paraguay apparently are planning to move their embassy as well. it's not 100% unified front but this is dividing the international community andi dividing the international community and i go further, it's notjust abiding, it's more about putting america and israel against many of their allies and strategic partners in the west and other countries that are strategic allies. i would say it's not even really fair to put it asa it's not even really fair to put it as a half and have division so much as a half and have division so much as it puts america and israel in the situation together. i want to go back to one more point about the level of hopelessness in terms of

what this means for the peace process. according to our survey palestinians over three quarters of them see america's rule as biased on them see america's rule as biased on the israeli side. that does not bode well for america having any sort of role in the peace process and makes it very hard to seek out we will move forward on this, at the same time we have the mirror image, a large percentage of israeli jews think... it's hard to see how this opens any route for moving ahead in the future. do you want to come in, you are? yes, i wanted to say it's not about opposed to peace, it's about what kind of peace and the peace process so about what kind of peace and the peace process so far in israel and palestine haven't done palestinians any favour, in fact palestinians have had to give up more of their rights over the years. and i think that's really something that's very straight palestinians, when we talk about the peace process it's not on

an equal footing, palestinians are a colonised people and yet have been brought into these discussions and expected to bargain away more of their rights and it's a completely unfair situation. i want to go back to the point about the eu stakes, the eu is adamant, they are wedded to the 67 borders, i think what i hope we will see in the coming days and weeks and months is that they remain wedded to that because as i said earlier, the us embassy has moved to a site considered as no man's land and that's occupied land, by placing the us and the sea in occupied land the us is essentially recognising sovereignty over the entire area of jerusalem recognising sovereignty over the entire area ofjerusalem which goes against international law but also international consensus. i think it's going to be interesting to see how different states and different countries react to this and unfortunately i don't see the situation getting better for

palestinians in jerusalem or wider palestine. thank you all so much for joining me. let's get more on that speech from the head of m15 andrew parker who delivered as strongly worded rebuke to russia, his first public comments since the nerve agent attack in salisbury. addressing an audience of european security chiefs in berlin he accused russia of trying to undermine european democracies with what he described as malign activities and flagrant breaches of international rules. he also said europe faces an intense and unrelenting terrorist threat, revealing that 12 terror attacks have been stopped in the uk since the westminster attack back in 2017. we can speak to fester philip davies, the director of the brunel university centre for intelligence and security studies. i is so much for coming in, do you know why that there is a significance as to why there is a significance as to why the speech is being made now and why we are getting this information?”

think there is no special significance about why it's happening now, these kind of meetings that head of agency level are routine and they run year—on—year, it's part of keeping the wheels of security cooperation going, nothing surprising... it's his first... speech... this is part of what goes on. we're part of the numbers discussed today about threats which have been thwarted in the uk, he said 12 terror attacks have been stopped in the uk since the westminster attack last year? not particularly, pretty similar kinds of numbers year on year on what they protect and disrupt, it's consistent, indicative of a consistent, indicative of a consistent level of effort and a threat. he was seeing 25 attempted attacks have been thwarted since 2013, it sounds like there has been quite a 2013, it sounds like there has been quiteajump in 2013, it sounds like there has been quite a jump in the last year? in terms of the longer term trends i

don't think it's necessarily bad significant. should people be worried by these kind of statements because we always get told that the security services are doing the very best that they can but the reality of the situation is that some will a lwa ys of the situation is that some will always slept through the net, by these coming words you heard today or should we be realistic?” these coming words you heard today or should we be realistic? i think it's simply accurate, the lessons from the blitz is that you can have all the anti—aircraft guns but missiles will get through. the lesson from london and manchester was the occasional hit will get through and they will be occasionally bigger than you expect and there was a great deal of reflection on what might have gone wrong in terms of missing the scale of preparation certainly for manchester but as we know, those are in intensive series of reviews which we re in intensive series of reviews which were reviewed by john in intensive series of reviews which were reviewed byjohn allison, in terms of should we be more worried

or less worried, the levels are more or less worried, the levels are more or less worried, the levels are more or less constant, i should say. quite strong language he used today on russia. in many respects i think this is the most important part of the speech, the reporting of figures on terrorism at regular accounting for what they are doing and getting thejob done, the russian situation is unusual and it's a difficult one, and it's complicated by the fact the way the russians have handled their side is. around and assassinating people is largely out of fashion and has been for a while but the russians have got form on this and i'm not thinking of alexander lived then you go in england 2006, but another man who they tried to poison with radioactive rat poisons which they had to irradiate. they are intent on a certain type of attack which forensically is hard to track, which forensically is hard to track, which doesn't have the russians are here all over it. and then to deny

it extensively. we are going to have to leave open thank you so much, i am grateful. bbc newsroom live is coming up next. thank you for your company today. have a good day. back at the same time tomorrow. hello and good morning. many of us waking up to blue skies this morning. many of us keeping blue skies well into this evening. this was cornwall earlier, some fair weather cloud developing in the sky and elsewhere there could be further weather cloud. a bit more into words east anglia, the south—east of bingo and, the smallest chance of catching and, the smallest chance of catching an isolated shower, war cloud moving into northern ireland and the west of scotland, in between we keep blue skies and the sunshine and it will
