9:00 am
hello it's friday, it's 9 o'clock, i'm chloe tilley, welcome to the programme. a teenager who suffered a brain injury at birth tell this programme she is "angry" that it was not avoided. becky tyler has severe quadriplegic cerebral palsy and was born starved of oxygen at east surrey hospital in 2002. health bosses say they're sorry. she tells us her story. also ahead: the impact our clothes have on the environment and why a group of mps are so concerned they're launching an inquiry into the sustainability of the fashion industry. 70 years after the first caribbean migrants arrived on the empire windrush to help rebuild britain — a thanksgiving service will be held later today. hello, welcome to the programme, we're live until 11 this morning. we'll keep you across the latest breaking and developing stories as they happen. also this morning we tend
9:01 am
not to think too much about how our clothes are made and what impact that has on the environment. but a bunch of mps are so concerned they're launching an inquiry. i'm interested to hear what you think about this — do you think fast fashion is cheap, and easy or is it having too much of an impact on the environment? or are clothes labelled as being sustainable just way too expensive? do get in touch — use the hashtag victorialive and if you text, you will be charged at the standard network rate. our top story today...airbus has warned it could leave the uk if the country exits the european union single market and customs union without a transition deal. the european planemaker said the warning was not part of "project fear, but its "dawning reality". andrew plant reports. it employs around 1a,000 people at 25 sites across the uk, making wings for its passenger planes. now in what they've called a brexit
9:02 am
risk assessment airbus said if the uk left the eu next month without a deal it would lead to severe disruption and interruption of its uk production. put simply it said it would force the company to reconsider its business in the uk. before the uk voted to leave the european union in 2016's referendum, airbus wrote to its staff, warning them about the risk of voting to exit the eu. french, german, spanish governments all hold stakes in the company. the campaign to leave the eu accused airbus, at the time, of being part of what it called project fear. airbus said that was far from the truth and on thursday said its concerns about its future business in the uk were now be coming a daunting reality. our business editor simon jack is here.
9:03 am
they say it dawning reality and not scaremongering. 0thers they say it dawning reality and not scaremongering. others will say that is exactly what they are doing. scaremongering. others will say that is exactly what they are doingm is exactly what they are doingm is true that before, during, and after the referendum airbus said there would be complications if we voted to leave the eu, it was called project fear. now they are saying u nless we project fear. now they are saying unless we get clarity about what will happen at the borders, where we are headed, to get some confidence that a deal is going to be done over the next months then we need to start spending money on things like warehouses, etc. that makes the uk are warehouses, etc. that makes the uk a re less warehouses, etc. that makes the uk are less competitive place to do business. when we have discussions about where will we build our wing of the future, we have to consider whether the uk is the right place to do it. this is a ratcheting up of the rhetoric. it also echoes what i am hearing from other manufacturers. i spoke to the boss of bmw in the uk. he said, similarly, we need
9:04 am
clarity over the next few weeks, otherwise we will have to start stocking parts. millions of components coming from all over europe, they are assembled here, then exported around the world. if you throw sand in the engine such as delays at the border that can impact business negatively. what happens next? the government is saying it is not our intention to crash out of the eu without a deal. that's not the eu without a deal. that's not the direction of travel. we don't wa nt the direction of travel. we don't want that, brussels doesn't want that, we are making efforts to get a deal done. don't worry. but what happens next is that there is a summit in europe next month. heads of state will meet to thrash out a deal. the white paperfor our withdrawal comes after that. i'm also told that in that document, around that time, we will get a clear idea of what customs arrangements the government wants, and getting clarity about that, i
9:05 am
think, will give businesses something to get their teeth into, something to get their teeth into, something to get their teeth into, something to read. at the moment they are saying we have nothing to analyse. what's also interesting, there are some in government who are saying we have been exasperated that businesses have not been more vocal in the past. they haven't come to the cabinet and said we have real concerns about this. why don't you go public with this? so airbus going public will be a relief for some of the government so they can say you need to make these concerns more public if you want to put the pressure on and that is what we have seen today. thank you for speaking to us. annita mcveigh is in the bbc newsroom with a summary of the rest of the days news. good morning. the us first lady, melania trump, has caused controversy with her choice ofjacket for a trip to a child migrant camp at the mexican border. 0n the back of it were written the words "i really don't care, do you?" from washington, chris buckler reports. the first lady knows that in recent weeks,
9:06 am
many families arriving at america's border have faced a very different sort of welcome. this is one of the centres where migrant children are being cared for having been separated from their parents. and this visit was a sign of the concern of melania trump of what is happening under the flag of the us and the orders of her husband's administration. i am here to learn about the facility. i would like to ask you how i can help to reunite these children with theirfamilies as quickly as possible. president trump reversed his policy after outrage at the images of children being held in cages and the stories of distress caused by families being split apart. there is still confusion over how and when those separated will be reunited. although melania trump travelled
9:07 am
to texas to show sympathy, there were mixed messages and controversy because of the coat she wore. it was emblazoned with the phrase "i really don't care, do u?" donald trump claimed in a tweet: but it's certainly true that washington is struggling to find solutions to america's immigration problems. as protestors staged a demonstration in the halls of congress, a proposal for a vote on legislation was delayed until next week, but there is no way of stopping the flow of families seeking shelter here. chris buckler, bbc news, washington. the eu has introduced higher import tariffs on a range of american products including jeans, bourbon whiskey and motorbikes. it's in response to president trump's decision to impose a 25% levy on steel and a 10% charge
9:08 am
on aluminium imports from europe. the european commission says it will do whatever is necessary to safeguard its trade interests. the church of england is making last minute efforts to engage with survivors of sexual abuse just weeks before the publication of what is expected to be a highly critical report. an examination of evidence by bbc local radio shows that serious allegations of abuse went unrecorded after cases involving dead and retired clergy were left out of a review in 2010. donna birrell reports. survivors say failures by the church of england to accurately record the number of abuse allegations may have led to abuse continuing unchecked. the church is now asking for survivors to come forward with their views on how the church has responded to them, something many think is too little, too late. the response of the church to survivors i think has been wholly inadequate. i think there has been a sense of paralysis, almost, on the part of the church of not
9:09 am
quite knowing how to deal with it. as seeing the survivors as the problem. an independent enquiry is looking at the way the anglican church handled abuse claims. it shows emails with discussions and disagreements within the church about which cases should be. 0ne e—mail talks about damage to the then archbishop of canterbury. though he told the enquiry he never saw the e—mail. other documents highlight serious cases which never made it through to the final report, leading some to question whether abusers were left free to abuse. if there is an opportunity to identify those who are, umm, posing a risk to other people, maybe even known offenders, maybe even with convictions, who do not become part of a known list, then, yes, there is every possibility they are able to continue doing what they have been doing. the church of england says it takes the criticism very seriously and has commissioned an independent review into how it handled
9:10 am
past allegations. that is due to be done next month and it is committed to acting on its recommendations. donna birrell — bbc news. the probation system in england and wales is said to be in a ‘mess' according to a committee of mps. thejustice select committee is urging the government to overhaul the way offenders are supervised in the community, after a report found reforms introduced four years ago, when the service was partially privatised, failed to work. we do think there's got to be a very urgent and full review of all of this. just the sticking plaster of putting more money in one bit here and another bet there isn't going to solve it. we have serious doubts as to whether this system actually ever can be made fit for purpose. the future of dozens of house of fraser stores is set to be decided later today. creditors to the high street chain will vote on plans to shut 31 of its 59 shops in an attempt to save
9:11 am
the company from collapse. the closures would see the loss of 6,000 jobs. events will take place across the uk today to mark 70 years since the empire windrush sailed in to britain carrying hundreds of caribbean migrants in search of a new life. but the anniversary comes as many are still waiting to find out if they can remain in the uk. earlier this year the home office was forced to admit that many immigrants from the windrush generation were wrongly deported, or denied benefits. since april more than 2,000 people have been given documentation by the windrush taskforce, but for some who were refused re—entry to the uk, it's come too late. when would you like to come back? how can you come back? you don't give somebody the permission, you know, with the stamp, and pay their fare back and get the... something like that. i mean, [io—odd years ago, i even knew people, maybe they're all dead now, and things like that. you know what i mean. we are not going to find them. the american tv network abc
9:12 am
has ordered a spinoff to the comedy series ‘roseanne', without the involvement of its creator and namesake, roseanne barr. the sit—com was cancelled last month after ms barr posted a racist tweet. the show had recently returned after a 20—year break. the original writers, producers and cast members are all involved in the new show, which will be called ‘the conners'. that's a summary of the latest bbc news — more at 9.30. we will be talking about our culture of throwaway fashion. is it even a consideration when you buy clothes, —— buy cheap clothes, where then a few times, then throw them away. also the environmental impact of just making these clothes. we will be talking about this after ten o'clock this morning. we would love to hear what you think, please get
9:13 am
in contact. let's get some sport now with tim... if you ever thought it was difficult being an england fan, let's have some sympathy for argentina. they must be devastated after their team's performance last night against croatia. not a good morning if you are in argentina fan. there were much more than two years after the country's disintegration against croatia last night. theirfirst disintegration against croatia last night. their first goal came after a com plete night. their first goal came after a complete howler. what was he thinking? messi had a bad night. he looked ordinary, he was upstaged by luka modric, who added the second after a gradovich —— who added the second before rakitic
9:14 am
got the final goal. croatia looked a real force once got the final goal. croatia looked a realforce once again got the final goal. croatia looked a real force once again 20 years after success. most football fans chance their players names. but australia fa ns their players names. but australia fans have a new song, var var. we have heard so much about this technology so far in this world cup. they were awarded a penalty after referring to the system. and what about that song? # var var # var var # var var # var var # var var. an
9:15 am
alternative song. france beat peru, the south americans are out of the tournament. let's talk about england. they have their second game of the tournament sunday lunchtime, one o'clock kick—off. but do we have an idea of who is playing because of some lea ked tea m who is playing because of some leaked team sheets? no need for a bbc mole inside this situation. gareth southgate's assistant, tim holland, was seen holding this yesterday. it might not be the team, but if it is it looks like dele alli is out with an injury. loftus—cheek replacing him. and marcus rashford coming in for raheem sterling. but that piece of paper could be complete rubbish. because the fa have since tweeted
9:16 am
this video of dele alli running yesterday with the physio. the team will not be affected by the so—called leak, trent alexander arnold said. untilthe manager so—called leak, trent alexander arnold said. until the manager names the team, it doesn't matter what has come out, what has been leaked, anything like that, because the lads do not focus on anything like that until it comes out of the manager's mouth. those are the only words that are important to us at this moment in time. we shall have to wait until sunday to see if that piece of paper is authentic or not. thanks, we will catch up with you throughout the morning. when becky tyler began learning about the human body at primary school, she asked her mother a question which was to change their lives forever: "why isn't my brain the same as everybody else's?" becky was born starved of oxygen at east surrey hospital in 2002. as a result she has severe
9:17 am
quadriplegic cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair and eye—gaze technology to talk. fiona and her husband steve always believed becky's condition was just one of those things that can happen during birth. but when becky asked them to look into it, their five—year search revealed mistakes they never knew about contributed to her being starved of oxygen. now becky is set to receive multimillion pound damages from the nhs which will help pay for her care. becky is here with us now along with her mum, fiona and her lawyerjane wakely. iam i am delighted to meet you. fiona, i wa nt to ta ke i am delighted to meet you. fiona, i want to take you back to when you we re want to take you back to when you were in labour with becky. it was a long labour and there were complications. but when she was born it was far worse than you expected or you were ready for. we were shocked when she was born. she was
9:18 am
very nearly stillborn. nobody was expecting that at all. everybody went into shock. it was quite a difficult time. becky was born with her on the vocal cord around her neck, she was blue? around her neck three times and around her body wa nts. three times and around her body wants. she was navy blue. she was clearly very poorly. —— around her body once. she was in a special unit. you were discharged. what were you told about becky's prognosis? very little. we were told hopefully there will be no after effects and to go home and enjoy our baby and be grateful she is ok now. that's a relief. you have your baby. you are going home. it is all you want, isn't it? yes. at what point did you have concerns? very early on, because it was difficult to feed becky. she wasn't putting on weight.
9:19 am
she has a lot of wind and a lot of reflux. i was a first—time mum. i didn't know what to do. i was asked for advice. i was told it was colic. soi for advice. i was told it was colic. so i continued trying to do my best for her. muddling through as first—time mums do. for her. muddling through as first-time mums do. yes, and not getting answers. and it was when becky was seven months old? she was diagnosed at seven months, yes. what did that do to you and your husband's did that do to you and your husbands and becky's wild? did that do to you and your husband's and becky's wild? when we first heard the words civilly brought —— when we first heard the words cerebral palsy, we did not know that much about it. we were shocked and devastated to start with. then as the news sank in i think we realised that it the news sank in i think we realised thatitis the news sank in i think we realised that it is the same baby we have known for the last seven months. we love becky. and having those words
9:20 am
in her life would open the door for us in her life would open the door for us to get some help. it wasn't something we needed to be down about. we wanted to see it as a positive thing in order to get help for becky. becchio, tell us, what is it like to live with cerebral palsy? —— becky. it like to live with cerebral palsy? -- becky. i cannot sit up on my own. i cannot stand up, balance, or walk. i find it hard to eat. and i cannot talk with my mouth, sol i find it hard to eat. and i cannot talk with my mouth, so i am using this communication aid with my eyes to help me speak. i have to find different ways of doing the things that you can do. i have to rely on my family and personal assistants to help me with everyday tasks, which can be very frustrating because i
9:21 am
would rather be able to do things myself. getting out and about can be quite difficult in some places. many places are not accessible to me. it is difficult to make friends because i cannot talk. some people talk to me likei i cannot talk. some people talk to me like i am a baby, and assume i do not understand. i find i me like i am a baby, and assume i do not understand. ifind i need me like i am a baby, and assume i do not understand. i find i need to educate people about my disability and howl educate people about my disability and how i do things was so life is not easy for me. —— and howl and how i do things was so life is not easy for me. —— and how i do things, so life is not easy for me. it must be so frustrating for becky. but at least this technology is phenomenal and it gives becky a way to communicate, which is so important. that's right. but it has fundamentally changed your family's life. you were a career woman and you have given that up to be a full—time carerfor
9:22 am
you have given that up to be a full—time carer for becky because she needs that. that's right. the technology has changed becky's life. it's the one thing she can do independently. it has opened the doors to allow her to communicate with us and tell us what she's thinking, but also ask questions about her own life, which enabled us to start the investigation as to really what happened at birth. had she never asked that question we would have been none the wiser. becky, let's talk about that question, you were ten, which is impressive to come out with this question, but it was the question that changed everything. why did you ask your mum to find out what happened to you ? ask your mum to find out what happened to you? i wanted to know why my brain did not work the same way as my classmates. so i asked my ltiulti way as my classmates. so i asked my mum howl way as my classmates. so i asked my mum how i got my cerebral palsy. she said it wasjust one of mum how i got my cerebral palsy. she said it was just one of those things and that it could not have been predicted, because this is what the doctors have told her. mum found out we could do an investigation. and
9:23 am
thatis we could do an investigation. and that is how we found out what had really happened. i think all children with disabilities will want to know why they are disabled when they are old enough to understand it. so i would say to parents that don't know how their child got cerebral palsy, that they can get it investigated. i wanted to know the answers. understandably. it is incredible that you asked that question at ten. it shows how bright you are. becky is studying for her gcse exams at the moment, she is a clever girl. jane, you are the family's lawyer, and it was so important that becky asked that question, right? that's right. which came to visit me and asked if i could look into that case it was because becky had asked that question. —— when she came to. as
9:24 am
faras question. —— when she came to. as far as they were aware it was just one of those things from birth. not much to go on. but we got in touch with the trust and got the birth records. the investigation they did at the time, an internal investigation, the family had no idea it had been carried out. that gave us idea it had been carried out. that gave us some cers as idea it had been carried out. that gave us some clues as to how the trust felt about this. they acknowledged in that investigation that mistakes had been made. they'd also taken that mistakes had been made. they'd also ta ken statements that mistakes had been made. they'd also taken statements from all of the parties concerned. unfortunately they were effectively blaming the owner for what had happened. and what came out was that some of the facts were completely inaccurate. and when we were able to talk to fiona about that it was a completely different version of events. getting the records and investigation which nobody had ever seen was very important. and it started the journey for us in asking the trust to acknowledge what had happened to
9:25 am
becky was their fault. how did you feel when you heard that? were you angry? were you relieved? when i heard that i was being blamed i was absolutely shocked. i couldn't believe it. because as far as i was concerned during labour i did what the medical staff had told me to do and was completely compliant with their recommendations. it took a while to get over that. and to work with jane and the team to move things forward and try to get a resolution. when it was admitted that mistakes had been made, was that mistakes had been made, was that the relief? as parents we a lwa ys that the relief? as parents we always question things we've done? could we have done it differently? was it a relief to know you hadn't done anything wrong? it was a relief
9:26 am
to know that i wasn't being blamed any more. i knew i hadn't do anything wrong. of course, i didn't stress... but as parents sometimes we run over things and we think, could i have done something differently? it is irrational but you do. after becky had been born i was always asking myself those questions. was there something we could have done differently? i could not see any answers. the staff were telling me it wasjust not see any answers. the staff were telling me it was just one of those things. confirming there was nothing we could have done. i had a follow up we could have done. i had a follow up meeting with my gynaecologist a couple of months after becky was born. he went through the procedure and said there wasn't anything wrong. that put my mind at rest that nothing could have been done and that it was just one of those
9:27 am
things. becky, tell me, how do you feel about what happened to you? angry about what happened to my brain and that it could have been avoided. and disgusted that the hospital tried to blame my mum. but i feel happy that we have settled the case. and most of all i am excited about the future. quite right too. because this is hugely challenging emotionally. but also financially. it cost a lot to give becky everything she needs —— it costs a lot to give becky everything she needs, doesn't it? yes. we have had to do a lot of fundraising for various equipment she has needed. particularly the eye—gazer technology. this is amazing technology, but it must be expensive. i think it cost around
9:28 am
£6,000 to get the equipment to mount it on to her chair and the software. it all adds up. the money which will be coming your way after the hospital admitted mistakes, what difference will it make to all of your lives? it is a huge relief that becky's future is secure now and that we don't have to think how are we going to provide for her as we get older, and as we can no longer earn our salaries, or have to continue going to charity asking for help. what do you want to do with the money, becky? iwould like help. what do you want to do with the money, becky? i would like a new teenage girl's voice for my communication aid. 0ne teenage girl's voice for my communication aid. one that sounds more like me. i would also like an assistance dog to help me do things around the house. i need a bigger
9:29 am
wheelchair, access a and —— accessible car, and i would like environmental controls around my house so i can control doors, windows, and lights myself. and i would like a hydrotherapy pool to help my stiff muscles relax. sounds amazing. quite right! and it is about independence for becky said as she gets older she can have independent away from you, to an extent, with the best will in the world. she is bright. she can communicate. she can direct people to help her get what she needs. she can send e—mail and messages over the internet, what youtube, lots of different things through this technology. it will also allow her to communicate with technology in the house. —— watch youtube. she will be able to control various
9:30 am
devices in the house. and having a voice reflective of her age is so important. i want to read a statement which we have had from michael wilson who is the chief executive of surrey and sussex health care nhs trust. he says: how do you react to that, fiona? i'm pleased to hear there is a statement of regret and that they are going to work with us now to move forward. have you ever heard that word sorry before customer no. —— have you ever heard that word story before? no.
9:31 am
—— the word sorry before. -- the word sorry before. thank you so -- the word sorry before. thank you so much for coming in. still to come: we ask if the gosport inquiry report will have an impact on hospital care after a panel found that hundreds of patients prescribed heavy doses of painkillers had their lives shortened. and a thanksgiving service will be held today to celebrate the arrival of the empire windrush 70 years ago — despite the recent scandal over wrongful deportations and denial of benefits. time for the latest news — here's annita. the bbc news headlines this morning: aerospace firm airbus has threatened to pull out of the uk if the government can't agree a brexit deal with the eu. the company, which employs more than ia,000 people across 25 sites in the uk, says a "no—deal" situation would cost the company billions, forcing it to reconsider its uk investments. the government has said it's working closely with companies that are concerned ahead of brexit, and it's confident of getting a good deal which is "mutually beneficial."
9:32 am
the us first lady, melania trump, paid an unexpected visit to a centre where some migrant children are being cared for, as the us immigration crisis continues. she asked what she could do to help reunite families quicker — but her choice ofjacket drew widespread criticism when she was spotted wearing a coat with the words "i don't really care. do u?" emblazoned on the back. the president said it was her response to the ‘fake news' media. the church of england is making last minute efforts to engage with survivors of sexual abuse, just weeks before the publication of what is expected to be a highly critical report. an examination of evidence by bbc local radio shows that serious allegations of abuse went unrecorded after cases involving dead and retired clergy were left out of a review in 2010. a spokesperson for the anglican church said recent criticisms "have been taken very seriously and acted upon." the probation system in england

and wales is said to be in a "mess," according to a committee of mps. the justice select committee is urging the government to overhaul the way offenders are supervised in the community, after a report found reforms introduced four years ago, when the service was partially privatised, failed to work. the future of dozens of house of fraser stores is set to be decided later today. creditors to the high street chain will vote on plans to shut 31 of its 59 shops in an attempt to save the company from collapse. the closures would see the loss of 6,000 jobs. that's a summary of the latest bbc news. thanks, annita. here's some sport now with tim. good morning.
9:34 am
games coming up today, including brazil, but last night... you will of course remember evita's dont cry for me argentina, but there were much more than just tears after the country's disintegration against croatia. theirfirst goal came after a complete and utter howler from willy caballero. the england team sheet has allegedly been weak, which if it is correct would show an injured dele alli not playing, with marcus rashford upfront instead of raheem sterling. england's cricketers are now 4—0 up
9:35 am
in their five—match 0di series against australia. jason roy hit a century as they won by six wickets at chester—le—street. and britain's number one kyle edmund has been knocked out at queen's by nick kyrgios. the australian, who beat andy murray in the first round, will be joined by novak djokovic in the quarter—finals. that's all the sport for now. see you just after ten. thank you. the fallout from the gosport inquiry report has dominated the news this week. the panel found that between 1989 and 2000 more than a50 people had their lives shortened by being given inappropriate doses of strong painkillers at gosport war memorial hospital. both the prime minister and the health secretary have apologised to relatives this week, and there have been calls for a criminal investigation. the report also mentions that nurses working there tried to report their concerns, but this wasn't properly investigated at the time. so will this report result in major changes to hospital care in the uk? let's talk to the labour mp paul flynn, who is the joint chair of the all—party parliamentary group for prescribed drug dependence, dr henrietta hughes who is the national guardian for the nhs — whosejob is to make
9:36 am
sure whistleblowers are listened to — and sarah wootton, from the campaign group dignity in dying. thank you all forjoining. paul flynn, i want to start with you. when you saw this report, when you read it, did you have any idea of the scale of what was quite an? no, it was a great shock, and it will send fear, certainly to my generation — i'm over 80 —— the scale of what was going on. we have to put trust in those looking after us, and that trust is probably properly placed, but this is a terrifying example of people who have died because of overdoses supplied to them. we are dealing with people who were taking a drug thatis with people who were taking a drug that is extremely dangerous, and it seemed to be used in a way that is cavalier, and shorten the lives of these people. people in this small hospital, all these people that were involved. it is a huge number of people to have their lives shortened ina way people to have their lives shortened in a way that seemed to be either
9:37 am
incompetent or worse. we hear of heartbreaking cases of someone, an elderly man, saying to her son, luke, son, they‘ re elderly man, saying to her son, luke, son, they're killing me here, and the sun rightly said, "no, no, they're looking after you, dad." the next day he went in, father was in a deep coma and died the next day. these people were not terminally ill. they were there for co nvalescence, ill. they were there for convalescence, but they ended up having a lethal dose of the drug, a very useful drug, but it was administered in a way with these syringe pumps that is very difficult to control and it ended up in this very high number of deaths. let's talk about the issue of opioid use. henrietta, what are the rules currently of prescribing opioids, either in a care home or hospital, what do doctors have to do? we work
9:38 am
in teams so we make sure we are prescribing according to guidelines, that we work with experts in palliative care, if the patient is nearing the end of their life, but the main thing is to work with patients, to understand, do they have pain? are they actually receiving opiates for pain? i understand in these cases the patients were not in pain. that is where we were, working with families and patients but within our guidelines. do you think things have changed? guidelines. do you think things have changed ? this guidelines. do you think things have changed? this obviously was looking back to the year 2000, i8 changed? this obviously was looking back to the year 2000, 18 years ago. do you think systems now have changed and this would not be happening now? i think it is an indication of a paternalistic culture where doctors are deciding rather than patients choosing, and i think it is also indicative that there are not enough safeguards at there are not enough safeguards at the moment, sol there are not enough safeguards at the moment, so i think you need more patients choosing at the end of life. i worry that all event might lead to a chilling effect on the use
9:39 am
of opiates, because we know from research that dignity in dying has done, that some people are not getting pain relief at the end of life that they want. so you think doctors could become fearful? yes, i do. we did some research in the way britain currently outsources death to switzerland, and three of the family members who wanted to go max couldn't go, and they all wanted more pain relief at the end of life —— who wanted to go, they couldn't go. and they were told explicitly, we can't allow the opiates to be the cause of death, otherwise we will be liable, so that means people are suffering. do you think that is a realistic concern? i think when people have pain we need to make sure we are managing their pain, but not hastening their death. what i do when i am working with my patients, we work with palliative care teams, we work with palliative care teams, we follow all the advice and guidance, but i haven't come across situations where people are fearful of prescribing in that way. doctor

flynn, sorry, paul flynn, do you think we should be worried? i am looking here and the number of opioid prescriptions has almost doubled in the last decade. do you think that is something to be concerned about? it is a great thing to be concerned about and that is why our group exists. we are in danger of following what has happened in america, where you had 42,000 deaths from opioid abuse, and in most cases what has happened is people have been prescribed drugs for bird oppression or their age, they are not adequate, the pain gets worse and they take more and more, become addicted —— prescribed drugs. the biggest threat on the drugs scene is deaths from prescribed and opioids. that is happening in america and we're following the pattern here. it was an enormous
9:41 am
shock to realise what was happening in the health service, because we a lwa ys in the health service, because we always believed there were safeguards there, there were whistle—blowers, that they could have stopped this happening. when you have people dying on the skill that happened in gosport, it should have become obvious, and people did blow the whistle, there were three police inquiries, and our systems are failing us. and it's no longer a position where we can go into hospital and trust the system to protect us. henrietta and go, i want to pick up on that point... this trust has been built up for many yea rs. trust has been built up for many years. it paul, sorry, iwant to pick up on this point...|j years. it paul, sorry, iwant to pick up on this point... i think a better transparency and scrutiny of end of life decision—making would come with legislation and openness around patients being able to request medication that would hasten their deaths. what do you think it is worrying opioid prescriptions have doubled in the last ten years?
9:42 am
i think basically people need to get the pain relief they do. i think doctors are in a difficult situation because they are having to take decisions but there needs to be patients giving better indications of what they want. i mean, patients can make advanced positions at the moment but there needs to be a much greater transparency about what patients want at the end of life. this is a conversation with patients, what we need to focus on? i think it is about looking up the whole patient, and notjust their pain, but thinking about whether they have psychological issues we can support them with, whether there are social issues, and really looking to support that whole person. certainly, what we do as gps is by listening to the patient, understand what is behind their pain, is it that there are other issues we need to help refer them for in terms of support for mental health as well as their physical health? i want to ask you, paul flynn, briefly, ifi health? i want to ask you, paul flynn, briefly, if i can, you don't use any kind of pain relief, do you,
9:43 am
despite... you have quite a debilitating condition?” despite... you have quite a debilitating condition? i don't want to impose my standards on other people, but i have campaigned for years against the weakness of the patient's position. the largest scale of abuse we have in this country from drugs is the use of neuroleptic drugs in residential homes for the elderly, and they can't fight back, the patient. often they have no relatives or they have relatives that don't protect them, and it is much easier in a residential home and much cheaper, if the patients are drugs and moving around like muppets or zombies, rather than being argumentative elderly people. we want to make sure the patient has a much stronger voice. at the moment those who are being abused i believe by the overuse of neurole ptic being abused i believe by the overuse of neuroleptic and other drugs in residential homes for the elderly are an example that we
9:44 am
haven't addressed, and we need to haven't addressed, and we need to have systems that protect those who have systems that protect those who have no loud voice. it is worth seeing obviously there are many good ca re seeing obviously there are many good care homes out there who do listen to patients and make sure their wishes are respected. —— worth saying. thank you all very much for speaking the us this morning. coming up... as the environmental audit committee launches an inquiry into sustainable fashion, we look at what it takes to make the clothes in our wardrobe. events will take place across the uk today to mark 70 years since the empire windrush sailed in to britain along with hundreds of caribbean migrants in search of a new life. the anniversary comes as many continue to wait for clarification over their right to remain following the windrush scandal. the home office says it is committed to ensuring all those affected are given the assistance they require. in a moment we'll talk through what today means — but first here's just one of the many windsrush stories. arriving in britain, and seeing rows of terraced houses with smoke coming out of the chimneys, and thinking
9:45 am
they were factories. because the only places in the caribbean where smoke came out of the chimneys was a factory. and most of them had to buy an overcoat. this is my dad behind me — that's my dad in the middle there. and he didn't have an overcoat then, but the first thing they would have done is bought an overcoat, because it would have been so bitterly cold for them. archive footage: arrivals at tilbury. the empire windrush brings to britain 500 jamaicans. many are ex—servicemen who know england. i'd like to ask you please, are you a single man? i am a single man. i've only my mother that is depending on me, and i'm also an ex—serviceman. you're ex—service? raf, are you? raf. i took a course in scotland in case making and as a result i'm going back there to see if i can further because i like it very much. i'm trying to help myself and also help my mum. even though they were asked to come, local people didn't want them there.
9:46 am
there were signs in windows saying no blacks, don't come here, we don't want you here. so they had to put up with a lot of discrimination. we can talk now to euten lindsay, who came to the uk from jamaica as a nine—year—old to be with his mum. during his 30 years working as a chef here he cooked for princess diana. but despite spending almost his whole life in the uk he was told in 2016 he must leave the country or would be deported. he's in our plymouth studio. here with me are gus john, who turned down theresa may's invitation to join her for an anniversary reception in downing street; campaigner zita holbourne who works with those affected by the scandal; and patrick vernon who fought to get the contribution of the windrush generation recognised in an annual day of celebration. thank you so much forjoining us.
9:47 am
euten, i want to begin by speaking to you. you can here as a young boy, clearly worked here for many years, then in 2016, boom, out of nowhere, "get out of the country." yes, it has been really incredible. i've had to prove to the home office that i am whoi to prove to the home office that i am who i am, and that i have been in the country since 1973, and i have all rights to be here. i think it is pretty disgusting and many regard to the home office works because the onusis the home office works because the onus is actually down on the individual to prove and to find all these different documentation, to prove that their existence and their right to be here. so, yes, i have had a torrid time. recently i was invited to the home office backing croydon to receive my ntl order, no
9:48 am
time limit certificate, and sadly they said three days but i am still waiting. so i don't know what to do at this moment. i am talking with the legal team, and just hoping to have the situation resolved as soon as possible. so i can begin to live my life and to be part of a productive community. my life and to be part of a productive communitylj my life and to be part of a productive community. i want to bring in gus at this point, to share his experience as well. your parents we re his experience as well. your parents were pa rt of his experience as well. your parents were part of that original windrush generation. you have been here in this country, working, campaigning, says the 60s. what progress do you think has been made in the uk on race relations in that time? well, clearly there has been some progress. there are black people employed in positions where they were not employed before. the education system is seeing more and more black people entering
9:49 am
university, for example. at those kinds of levels, the number of consultants in the health service who are black, whereas before there we re who are black, whereas before there were none, so who are black, whereas before there were none, so you can who are black, whereas before there were none, so you can point to all of those things, but at the same time it is counterbalanced, is not cancelled out, by all the negative stuff that defines us as a people. the number of people in prisons, overrepresented, the number of people excluded from school — overrepresentation, black people. mental health amongst young people, our general involvement with the criminal justice our general involvement with the criminaljustice system. our general involvement with the criminal justice system. so our general involvement with the criminaljustice system. so there are things which define our condition as a people in this society, which don't allow any cause, or give any cause for celebration. patrick, speak to gus, because you very much do feel there
9:50 am
isa because you very much do feel there is a cause for celebration? today is windrush they add a lot of people have been involved in campaigning for this for a number of years, and obviously what gus is saying is quite true —— today is windrush day. there has been a black presence in britain for over a thousand years and really i suppose a lot of the reason why people focus around windrush or postwar migration is because that is the great numbers of people who came from the caribbean, africa and other parts of the commonwealth as well. there has been that recognition, because if you look at the narrative of britain it is still very narrow. the experiences, our experiences, they are part of britain, and that was further exposed by windrush scandal, recognising that if you are not a british citizen, the british are you? windrush british citizen, the british are you ? windrush is british citizen, the british are you? windrush is important about celebrating the contribution of the windrush generation, because they have shaped politics, they have shipped fashion, many parts of british life, which the average person in britain doesn't understand
9:51 am
that they have shaped fashion. and the other thing about the scandal, more people knew about the windrush contribution and the generation in the space of five weeks compared to the space of five weeks compared to the last 60—70 years, which has a big impact in terms of the national curriculum, recognition. even in the media, more work needs to be done. i think that windrush day is a good anchor, not the be all and end all, but a good marker. gus john, -- zita, i know you're working with many families caught up in the windrush scandal. can you understand what patrick is saying?” windrush scandal. can you understand what patrick is saying? i do, and we need to understand our contributions and impact on the uk, but for me it isi and impact on the uk, but for me it is i difficult to celebrate today givena is i difficult to celebrate today given a medal people still impacted. you are talking about young black people who have been disproportionately stopped and searched, people who have been deported, people arrested who were
9:52 am
never guilty of a crime, grandmothers held in detention for years when their families are suffering because they also supported them in childcare, families ripped apart, the government saying you can pay rent by skype, and i am also the president of the —— vice president of the third night union, and our members have been scapegoated and the government, chocolates and cake given for detaining people as incentive, and our members want to respond in a sensitive humane way to what is happening. until there is fulljustice for everybody what is happening. until there is full justice for everybody impacted, those families already deported, those families already deported, those families already deported, those families split apart, the people signing with the home office, even those recognised have been told they have to renew their papers every year. they are not even being given british status, which is an absolute disgrace. i can hear you agreeing, euten. yes, totally. i just find it very... firstly, for
9:53 am
this day, windrush day to be recognised, it is great, but as the other speakers as stated, in this situation it is very difficult to celebrate. i find it situation it is very difficult to celebrate. ifind it difficult situation it is very difficult to celebrate. i find it difficult to celebrate. i find it difficult to celebrate. five? why? iam still celebrate. i find it difficult to celebrate. five? why? i am still in a dilemma in the know there are others suffering are being displaced, it is really sad, so i find it really difficult that the government can celebrate. i think it is ridiculous. it is like me wanting to celebrate my birthday, say, three weeks before my birthday. i think it is ridiculous. and i do believe that a lot more needs to be done and people need to be treated like people, and i think, in my situation, i am still suffering. i
9:54 am
have been basically left in a state of destitution. my family's been worried, so concerned. my friends. even right now if i say to you the amount of debts that i have incurred, and again because of the government, so there is no way i can celebrate at this present moment, sorry, no way. just takes blame for people watching at home who don't understand, why has this affected you that you have got into debt? just explain how it has affected your life? 0k. well, it first started, i first started as a self—employed chef, i was working. all being told, no public funds were allowed to myself, so that means even for dental treatment i had to pgy- even for dental treatment i had to pay. anything to do with the nhs. what happened, i incurred nearly
9:55 am
£11,000 in arrears for rent, council tax and other... if you imagine, i had to beg for food. tax and other... if you imagine, i had to beg forfood. i tax and other... if you imagine, i had to beg for food. i was only entitled to, what, three visits to the food buying? if it wasn't for the food buying? if it wasn't for the devon and cornwall refugee support group i would have starved. so it has impacted me. it meant at one stage i was not allowed to work, so ifi one stage i was not allowed to work, so if i can't work, i'm not allowed any public funds, how am i to survive? and this isjust your experience. there are so many other people who will have similar experience is. gus i want to ask you what is it you want the government to do now to rectify the situation? firstly, all of the people affected should be allowed to stay. they should be allowed to stay. they should be allowed to stay. they should be compensated for the suffering they have been put through. that is one classic example of that. and the government should change its
9:56 am
general attitude towards immigration. the fact of the matter is all the issues we have talked about so far have got to do with issues of equal rights and justice. that is the bottom line. if the government's on policies and practices were put under scrutiny in terms of the legislation in place —— the government's own policies and practices, then it would fail on every point. equality act of 2010, on every single count the government itself would fail. so it passes these laws presumably to protect the rights and entitlementss of people with protected characteristics, and yet every single thing that it does contravenes those laws. now, somebody should be saying something about that, and the government should be addressing that issue, rather than going to westminster and praying, for god's six. let me read you a statement from the home office. we contacted them for a
9:57 am
response. now, euten lindsay says he has still not received documentation from the home office confirming the promise he was made that he has indefinite residency in the uk. we asked the home office about this and they provided us with the following statement: listen, thank you all so much for
9:58 am
coming in today. very grateful to you forjoining us. let's get some weather now with matt. good morning. good morning. lovely across many parts of the country. but if you we re parts of the country. but if you were out this morning a bit of a chill. even some frost across parts of wales in south—west england in particular. warming up nicely at the moment, and it will do so more substantially over the coming days. blue collars with the fresh air, and that pushes off into northern europe —— blue colours. sunshine overhead, and things were substantially next week. some will see temperatures peaked at around 30 celsius, on wednesday or thursday. we will not quite get there today of course after the chilly start, but certainly warming up nicely under sunshine. cloud on wales breaking up. still a lot more cloud across northern scotland threatening some rain, brighter conditions into the afternoon. staying fairly cloudy for some. please still noticeable but nowhere near as strong some. please still noticeable but nowhere near as strong as some. please still noticeable but nowhere near as strong as it has
9:59 am
been over the past 24 hours, and you will notice an hour wind arrows further south. with the blue skies overhead, things will warm up more than yesterday. temperatures into the 20s for a few more review. still in the teens for scotland and northern ireland, though. tonight, —— afew northern ireland, though. tonight, —— a few more of you. the odd mist orfog —— a few more of you. the odd mist or fog patch, but —— a few more of you. the odd mist orfog patch, but temperatures —— a few more of you. the odd mist or fog patch, but temperatures down to single figures for many of the towns and cities but then it will shape up to be a lovely weekend for most of you. let's look at the details. high pressure is in charge which generally means try and that will be with us not just generally means try and that will be with us notjust for the weekend but in the next week. saturday, these weather fronts toppling around the north so expect northern scotland with a bit more cloud, some occasional rain, heavy in the morning but brightening up a touch of the afternoon. elsewhere, more high cloud around. sunshine may be a little hazy for some of you. temperature is continuing to climb
10:00 am
dion day. more again —— i'm gay on —— —— temperatures climbing day on day. then they will get close to is not above 20 celsius. then the temperatures climb further. whether in scotland, northern ireland, wales or england that will give a flavour of what will come. temperature is widely into the mid—20s next week, and asi widely into the mid—20s next week, and as i said, one of two spots getting close to 30 degrees. enjoy your weekend. hello it's friday, it's 10 o'clock, i'm chloe tilley. our top story — the european aircraft manufacturer airbus says it's reconsidering the future of its operations in britain because of the risks arising from brexit. international businesses, significant uk businesses, have looked at what the future holds and for them it looks very uncertain and very risky.
10:01 am
we'll have more on that shortly it's seventy years since the first caribbean migrants arrived on the empire windrush. some people have been told that they need to leave the country, otherwise they will be deported.” need to leave the country, otherwise they will be deported. i am talking to my legal team and hoping to have this sorted as soon as possible so i can begin to live my life and be pa rt can begin to live my life and be part of a productive community. a commemoration service will be held later today. we'll be live at westminster abbey later in the hour. the impact of cheap disposable clothes on the environment is to be investigated by mps, amid concerns over so—called ‘fast fashion'. and roseanne without roseanne. the us tv sitcom is coming back in a spinoff series — but without its star — the programme was cancelled after she sent out a racist tweet.
10:02 am
here's annita in the bbc newsroom with a summary of today's news. aerospace firm airbus has threatened to pull out of the uk if the government can't agree a brexit deal with the eu. the company which employs more than 14,000 people across 25 sites in the uk, says a "no—deal" situation would cost the company billions, forcing it to reconsider its uk investments. the government has said it's working closely with companies that are concerned ahead of brexit, and it's confident of getting a good deal which is "mutually beneficial" we have become increasingly frustrated with the lack of clarity. and obviously now time is running, coming up to less than nine months to go. and now we have to come to the point where we have to make serious decisions. and quite often those decisions are long—term in nature. without clarity it is too dangerous for us to proceed. the us first lady, melania trump, paid an unexpected
10:03 am
visit to a centre where some migrant children are being cared for, as the us immigration crisis continues. she asked what she could do to help reunite families quicker — but her choice ofjacket drew widespread criticism when she was spotted wearing a coat with the words ‘i don't really care. do you?‘ emblazoned on the back. the president said it was her response to the ‘fake news' media. the church of england is making last minute efforts to engage with survivors of sexual abuse, just weeks before the publication of what is expected to be a highly critical report. an examination of evidence by bbc local radio shows that serious allegations of abuse went unrecorded after cases involving dead and retired clergy were left out of a review in 2010. a spokesperson for the anglican church said recent criticisms "have been taken very seriously and acted upon". the probation system in england and wales is said to be
10:04 am
in a ‘mess' according to a committee of mps. thejustice select committee is urging the government to overhaul the way offenders are supervised in the community, after a report found reforms introduced four years ago, when the service was partially privatised, failed to work. we do think there has got to be a very urgent and full review of all of this. just a sticking plaster of putting more money in one bit here and another that there is not going to solve it. we have serious doubts as to whether this system can ever be made fit for purpose. the future of dozens of house of fraser stores is set to be decided in the next few hours. creditors to the high street chain will vote on plans to shut 31 of its 59 shops in an attempt to save the company from collapse. the closures would see the loss of 6000 jobs. events will take place across the uk today to mark 70 years since the empire windrush sailed in to britain carrying hundreds of caribbean migrants in search of a new life. but the anniversary comes as many are still waiting to find out if they can remain in the uk.
10:05 am
earlier this year the home office was forced to admit that many immigrants from the windrush generation were wrongly deported, or denied benefits. that's a summary of the latest bbc news — more at 10.30. do get in touch with us throughout the morning — use the hashtag victorialive and if you text, you will be charged at the standard network rate. we will be talking about fast fashion in a while, how our clothes are made, and how that has an impact on the environment. an enquiry is going to be launched by mps concerned about it. interested to get your thoughts on it. do you buy something cheap, where it a few times, then throw it away. do you think about the impact it has on the environment? 0r think about the impact it has on the environment? or are sustainable clothes just too expensive. please get in touch. we have been getting
10:06 am
comments about the chat we had with becky tyler earlier on. she has cerebral palsy. she was starved of oxygen during her birth. the hospital has now admitted that they made some mistakes and have reached a settlement. we have a message from somebody saying thank you so much for getting becky on the programme, this has helped educate me and understand her disability. and she isa understand her disability. and she is a bright young girl. we need to get this technology to all children with this technology to free their voice. she had this amazing eye gaze technology where she could look at a computer and it gave her a voice. she would like to get a teenage girl voice for it, which seems more than reasonable. now, the sport. good morning. don't cry for me argentina but there is anger as much as there are tears after their performance against croatia last night. the first goal came after an absolute howler from will he
10:07 am
ca ballero. absolute howler from will he caballero. 0ut absolute howler from will he caballero. out of sorts messi, totally upstaged by luka modric. ivan rakitic got the final goal to put them through to the last 16. argentina's fate out of their hands now. i simply nigeria later. if they win it be an even bigger struggle for messi and company. complete contrast, the celebrations in zagreb, this is what it means in the croatian capital. they made the semifinals back in 1998 and they really do look a force again 20 yea rs really do look a force again 20 years on. most football fans chance their players names, but australian fans have a new song and it is var var, because the australians, who were 1-0 because the australians, who were 1—0 down to denmark at the time of this handball, were awarded a penalty by the video assistant
10:08 am
referee. they scored it, keeping their hopes alive, going into the final game with peru. we can have a listen to the song. # var var # var var # var var # var #. the 12th man is var, for australia, it seems. france were not great against peru. peru are now out of the world cup. no need for a bbc mole inside the england camp because we have got the tea m england camp because we have got the team ahead of the match with panama, possibly on sunday, thanks to an eagle eyed photographer. steve holland was seen holding this during training. it might not be the team, of course, but if it is it looks like dele alli is out with an injury. he picked that up against
10:09 am
tunisia. loftus—cheek replacing him. and marcus rashford coming in for raheem sterling. but we don't know if that's true if it is the actual team. and also the fa have since tweeted this video of dele alli with the team physio yesterday running around. he does not look injured. trent alexander—arnold says the team won't be affected by this so—called leak. we haven't been directly told who is and isn't starting. i think one of the positions are still up for grabs. until the manager means a tea m grabs. until the manager means a team it doesn't matter what has come out, what has been leaked, anything like that, because i know the lads don't focus on stuff like that until it has come out of the manager's mouth. this doesn't matter to us at this moment in time. when it comes to one—day cricket england are completely dominant against australia. they are now 4—0 up against australia. they are now 4—0 up in the series after winning at chester—le—street yesterday. no repeat of the world record they
10:10 am
managed the last match at nottingham, 481 runs, butjason roy got a century as they chased down the opposition six wickets in hand. they are aiming for the whitewash. they are aiming for the whitewash. they are aiming for the whitewash. they are doing really well, the one—day team. that's all of the sport for now. thanks very much. airbus has warned it could leave the uk if the country exits the european union single market and customs union without a transition deal. the european planemaker said the warning was not part of "project fear, but its "dawning reality". airbus employs about 14,000 people at 25 different sites in the uk. paul everitt is chief executive of ads — the uk aerospace trade body. thank you for coming in. how worried should we be? very worried. our manufacturing base in the uk is at peril. the contingency plan, or the first phase of contingency plans,
10:11 am
air bus —— that airbus have announced, they are not alone. hundreds, thousands of businesses are having to make the same decision. the first decision is, we cannot afford to invest more in the uk whilst the future here is so uncertain. the second point is that the people at air bus up and down the people at air bus up and down the country are distraught. it is hugely important, it is globally competitive. —— the people at airbus up competitive. —— the people at airbus up and on the country are distraught. they are part of a global network. they have said that their future is uncertain and because of that they cannot efficiently invest in the uk, that isa damaging efficiently invest in the uk, that is a damaging comment. they are effectively saying hold tight, we are not investing, not making any plans for the future, which is not good for the economy. exactly. we
10:12 am
have to plan to try and cope with what the next few months and the immediate post—brexit period holds. today we have no understanding of what the new arrangement would be forced up in march people were confident we had a transitional arrangement. but since mart no progress has been made. we've had on the floor of the house of commons ministers and the prime minister is seeing a no dual option is being viable. —— since march no progress has been made. but that is against expert advice. —— seeing a new —— seeing a no deal option as being viable. people's futures rely on this. and the government need to ta ke this. and the government need to take action. some people might say that these are just threats, they
10:13 am
arejust that these are just threats, they are just trying to get movement to benefit them. you are right that they are trying to get things moving. industry has been advising government and providing evidence to government. what we have seen consistently is government not following the evidence, but following the evidence, but following what we believe is mistaken ideological approach. our biggest concern for convex manufacturing businesses is how we get things in and out of the country. we have goods coming in and out all the time. any delays at the border, any bureaucracy at the border, any bureaucracy at the border, is a huge cost for us. we've made that clear. government's response to that is to present two options, 18 months ago, which it is still discussing. both of which we have made clear, universally across industry, are not fit for purpose. in those circumstances there was not only uncertainty. there is a fear that sensible decisions are not
10:14 am
going to be made. thank you very much for coming in. 20—year—old rashan charles died after he was restrained by a police officer. an inquest found his death was accidental, but how has it affected his community's relationship with the police? noel phillips has been to dalston in london to find out. chanting minimal trust in the police. brings to light even more how important it is that we are doing this kind of work. before you heard his name chanted in the streets of east london and his final moments alive captured on cctv, 20—year—old rashan charles was enjoying life as a dad. i look at his picture every day and he's not there. i think about, he loved to shop and he loved his clothes and it... this moment, this road, this shop, it's just so hard. it's just so hard. and he's left behind a little daughter. rashan, or rash man to his friends,
10:15 am
grew up in dalston. he was known to the police and had a few brushes with the law. this should have been a straightforward arrest. a police officer chased rashan into a shop in dalston. there is a struggle as the officer wrestles him to the floor. it is claimed that rashan tried to swallow an object while being arrested. in the aftermath of his death riot police clashed with protesters, burning mattresses and throwing rocks. i was there that night, and sawjust how angry people were. rashan's great uncle rod charles is a former metropolitan police chief inspector. like many he too is searching for answers. this is not about the entire police force. this is about the conduct of individual officers on a particular night. the problem that stems from bad as when senior officers don't —— the problem that stems from that is when senior officers don't make appropriate decisions post—incident.
10:16 am
it doesn't damage relations with the communities by a few years, it sets and back generations. —— few years, it sets it back generations. a year on, and i've come back to find out what is being done to address anger. this area became the epicentre of violence that night. and despite efforts by the police to rebuild relations, what remains is a lasting reminder of what happened to rashan charles. when someone asks me why i don't trust police i tell them, rashan's why, isn't it? ifeel the pain inside. the disorder had been building for months. according to this community activist who helped to organise protests. ijust wantjustice. but setting your own community alight, smashing shops, that's not the way, is it? i'm not condoning, see when people are grieving i'm notjudging them for how they are grieving, you know
10:17 am
what i'm saying? but i'm saying there's more productive ways. the police accept rashan's death has since left tensions between them and some local people. there are other areas in hackney that i would say we need to work a lot harder at in building those relationships with young people and some minority communities. i love it, like i kid about it a lot. this is 23—year—old pc tamsin ireland, who is responsible for policing dalston. now that everyone in this community is searching for answers i want to know what is being done by the police to re—engage with the community. i have minimal trust in the police. my views are probably extreme, i will acknowledge, but i can't even say even in a life or death situation i would not necessarily call the police. there are very very few situations where i turn to the police... yeah, that's such a shame. that's where we are.
10:18 am
that's something that we have to try really hard to change. and a lot of people working in this market are here every day and i know that a lot of people, you know, previously they haven't wanted to call us even when they are seeing, like, crime taking place. it's obviously the last thing that i ever want to hear but it's not... i know that that's the case for a number of people. mia's take on how some young people see the police is hardly a surprise. rashan's death last year followed protests across london following the death of other black men in police custody. what do you say to those people who say we can never trust the police? i'd say give us a chance. my police officers, they come from all walks of society, and they reflect the community in many ways, they're young people, they understand some things that young people are going through. the anger i saw on these streets last summer has left me wondering if the opportunity to see real change may have been missed. but as rashan's family mourn and this community seeks answers, the police say they are optimistic about the future. we tend not to think too much about how our clothes are made
10:19 am
and what impact that has on the environment. but some of the facts are quite stark... all the garments we see in the shops consume a vast amount of the planet's resources. for example the production ofjust one cotton shirt takes nearly 3,000 litres of water — more than one person drinks in two and a half years. but it's notjust the production of clothes than can cause harm to the environment. it's what we do with them when we don't want to wear them anymore. the average lifetime for a garment in the uk is estimated atjust over 2 years. and at the end of its lifespan much of it ends up in landfill. the latest report by campaigners wrap suggests that about 300,000 tonnes of clothing is binned in the uk each year. that figure from 2015 is 50,000 tonnes less than it was three years earlier. but wrap says the clothing industry still has the fourth largest environmental impact,
10:20 am
after housing, transport and food. the environmental audit committee is so concerned it's launching an inquiry into the sustainability of the fashion industry. let's talk now to 0rsola de castro, the creative director of fashion revolution, a group that campaigns for better sustainability across the fashion industry, elliss solomon who owns her own fashion line where sustainability is at the core of its manufacturing, and fashion editor lucie clifford. thank you all for coming in. this concept of throwaway fashion, fast fashion, is this uniquely british, or do we see it across the world? we are definitely seeing a global increase in mass consumption of clothing. this has happened over the last 30 years. the concept of the high street is quite unique to the uk. toa high street is quite unique to the uk. to a certain extent it makes sense this enquiry should start from the uk because this is unique to our
10:21 am
industry. but it's fast fashion, luxury, nothing is slow these days. and everything comes in huge volumes. do you think we can have sustainable fast fashion? it's possible to implement the same kind of practices you implement into a smaller scale fast fashion business ona larger smaller scale fast fashion business on a larger scale. i was talking earlier to 0rsola as fast fashion becoming the wrong term. it isn't particularly that, it is the mass scale of it. explain that. it is ok to buy a top, where it three times, then chuck it in the bin? it isn't that. that is the consumer effect of it. fast fashion is more to do with the speed of production. if we produce maybe at the same speed, but
10:22 am
also less. would you agree? do you think fast fashion is a problem?” agree a lot with what they say. but i think there is a need for fast fashion. look at today's culture, we have social media dominating our high street, saying i am wearing this, i high street, saying i am wearing this, lam high street, saying i am wearing this, i am wearing this, we have guys going out on a saturday night thinking, actually i will use a portion of my wages, which are not huge, because we have low income across the uk, and they won't spend across the uk, and they won't spend a lot of money on one garment for a weekend. once you have been snapped on social, cannot bear to be seen in that garment again. it is the messaging that i think we need to start changing. it is ok to swap with your mates come up cycle, re cycle, with your mates come up cycle, recycle, we need to get that message out. —— it is ok to swap with your mates, up cycle. but fast fashion
10:23 am
isn't going anywhere. it is more prevalent than ever. i want to pick up prevalent than ever. i want to pick up on prevalent than ever. i want to pick upona prevalent than ever. i want to pick up on a point made about the fact that people need cheap fashion. they wa nt to that people need cheap fashion. they want to be cutting edge. they want to wear the colours, the cuts, whatever, of the season. but if people don't have a lot of cash, evenif people don't have a lot of cash, even if they have, they might not wa nt to even if they have, they might not want to spend it on clothes. and often sustainable fashion is so much more expensive. i think people want to buy a lot very often. you can still shop in a way that you are fashionable and you are buying the latest trends, or something you feel comfortable in... are you talking about people with 700 bags as they get onto the bus? kind of, but the general person, people will buy a dress for a night out, where it once, then it sits in their wardrobe, then eventually they give it toa wardrobe, then eventually they give it to a charity shop. what you should be doing is buying things you laugh and feel yourself in, that you can keep fora
10:24 am
laugh and feel yourself in, that you can keep for a long time, and love it for a long period. i think that is the angle i come at it from, that you want to buy less, but by better. i agree. we have been slightly spoiled by this mass production. there is an interesting statistic that in order to pay a garment worker a living wage, which almost no brand does, the increase on the price of the t—shirt would be something like 30p, 50p, something quite minimal. it really is the redistribution of those profits when it comes to cheap fashion. and i ee, it comes to cheap fashion. and i agree, i use the name cheap fashion rather than fast, because it isn't so rather than fast, because it isn't so much the speed that is the issue, it is the volume at which it is produced and getting into our clothes. we have to imagine a cultural shift. this phenomenon is maybe 25, 30 years old. we weren't
10:25 am
going around naked before. the other thing to think it's that may be as consumers we really are a part of the solution. if we imagine our own wardrobes within the fashion supply chain, there is something we can all do that will be right for us. for some of us it will be potentially slowing down. for others it is about keeping clothes longer. mending, repairing, swapping. but we need to bea repairing, swapping. but we need to be a part of this change without compromising on the amount of clothes come on having good clothes, in the wardrobe. for me it is an element of having that but i don't think people should have to feel limited. —— on the amount of clothes, or having clothes. people the manufacturers are the ones that should be making the decisions on
10:26 am
what materials they are using, and what materials they are using, and what they pay their workers. with whom is the responsibility? all of us. if i go into a store and i am looking for someone, in my head, personally, being honest, i'm not going to say i will buy this because it is 100% organic cotton. i will say, i it is 100% organic cotton. i will say, lam it is 100% organic cotton. i will say, i am going to buy that because it is going to look amazing on me. it is that ethos. it comes back to that mindset. but companies have to start being responsible. there are brand now that saying by 2020 if the 100% organic cotton on all of leisurewear. by 2030 they hope to have 100% recyclable and sustainable materials across all of their ranges. and these are big, global corporations. changes are being made. people are listening. it is just slow and few and far between.
10:27 am
somebody needs to stand up and say we are doing this, and people will follow. this is where i come at it from my brand perspective. designed first, sustainability afterwards. it should be design first. people look for fashion. should be design first. people look forfashion. sustainability should be design first. people look for fashion. sustainability can be implemented. it doesn't have to be shouted about. the consumer doesn't necessarily have to know about it. the consumer should be educated by the larger brands. they have an obligation with their voice to do that. me, with my small brand, i can tell people about the manufacturing processes. but you are one small player. the other trees is that it is easy for big corporations and big brands to make claims that change will happen, but they don't actually have to come good on this. but if the pressure comes from the consumers. as the pressure comes from the consumers. as you are here, the pressure comes from the consumers. as you are here, i would like to ask you about merle anier
10:28 am
—— i would like to ask you about melania trump. she went to a child migrant centre. 0n the back of the code it said i don't really care, do you? code it said i don't really care, do you ? thoughts? code it said i don't really care, do you? thoughts? —— back of the coat. i have no words. i don't even know who would provide that. i would like to know who made it for her.” who would provide that. i would like to know who made it for her. i will not say the name of the brand. but it was a high street name. was she badly advised? did she even think about it? i hope it was referring to her husband. chuckles any thoughts? no comment. did. thanks to all of you, very grateful. we speak to a woman whose partner's
10:29 am
facebook page was deleted six months after he died. the government would like to know who told it to delete that profile. 70 years since the landing of the windrush, we will be live at the thanksgiving service being held at westminster abbey. time for the latest news — here's annita mcveigh. aerospace firm airbus has threatened to pull out of the uk if the government can't agree a brexit deal with the eu. the company, which employs more than 14,000 people across 25 sites in the uk, says a "no—deal" situation would cost the company billions, forcing it to reconsider its uk investments. the government has said it's working closely with companies that are concerned ahead of brexit, and it's confident of getting a good deal which is "mutually beneficial". but the aerospace trade organisation has told this programme the comments from airbus are deeply worrying.
10:30 am
the people in airbus up and down the country are distraught. you know, they are, and airbus in the uk aerospace industry is, hugely important. it's globally competitive. airbus acknowledge regularly that their uk facilities are the most competitive in their global network, and to have an announcement that says, "well, until the future sorted we can't invest in the uk," you know, that incredibly damaging. the us first lady, melania trump, paid an unexpected visit to a centre where some migrant children are being cared for, as the us immigration crisis continues. she asked what she could do to help reunite families quicker — but her choice ofjacket drew widespread criticism when she was spotted wearing a coat with the words "i don't really care. do you?" emblazoned on the back. the president said it was her response to the so—called ‘fake news' media. the church of england is making last minute efforts to engage with survivors of sexual abuse, just weeks before
10:31 am
the publication of what is expected to be a highly critical report. an examination of evidence by bbc local radio shows that serious allegations of abuse went unrecorded after cases involving dead and retired clergy were left out of a review in 2010. a spokesperson for the anglican church said recent criticisms "have been taken very seriously and acted upon." the future of dozens of house of fraser stores is set to be decided later today. creditors to the high street chain will vote on plans to shut 31 of its 59 shops in an attempt to save the company from collapse. the closures would see the loss of 6,000 jobs. events will take place across the uk today to mark 70 years since the empire windrush sailed in to britain carrying hundreds of caribbean migrants in search of a new life. but the anniversary comes as many are still waiting to find out if they can remain in the uk. earlier this year the home office was forced to admit that many immigrants from the windrush generation were wrongly deported, or denied benefits. chloe has been speaking to some people still facing uncertainty on this morning's programme. i find it difficult to celebrate.
10:32 am
why? i'm still in a dilemma, and to know that there's others who are suffering, who've been displaced, it's really sad, so i find it really difficult. that's a summary of the latest bbc news. thanks very much, annita. here's some sport now with tim. yeah, another three games at the world cup today, chloe. brazil among those in action. but their old rivals argentina are in real trouble. humbled and humiliated by croatia, they are on the verge of going out. 3-0, the 3—0, the score. is this the england team to play panama on sunday? it was captured by a photographer in training yesterday, and if it's correct, rashford replaces sterling and loftu—cheek for the injured alli. england's cricketers are now 4—0 up in their five—match 0di series against australia. jason roy hit a century as they won by six wickets at chester—le—street.
10:33 am
—— loftus—cheek for the injured alli. and britain's number one kyle edmund has been knocked out at queen's by nick kyrgios. the australian, who beat andy murray in the first round, will be joined by novak djokovic in the quarter—finals. that's it from me, chloe. i'll be back on the news channel throughout the day. thank you very much, tim. boris becker could face prosecution in the central african republic — after authorities there accused him of using a fake diplomatic passport. the former wimbledon champion presented the passport to a london bankruptcy court as proof of his status as a sporting ambassador for the country — and giving him diplomatic immunity. 0ur correspondent catherine byaru hanga travelled to the capital bangui — to see if she could find boris. if you want to find a boris becker in the central african republic
10:34 am
where better to start than the local tennis club? monsieur, monsieur, ou est boris becker? the ambassador? the good will ambassador. right, right. laughter have you seen boris? yeah, he's somewhere over there. is he hiding? because everybody is looking for him. translation: i'm a tennis player. and if boris becker comes over here i'll be happy because he can come and organise a tennis tournament. what is he going to do? he can't even manage his own finances. how is he going to promote goodwill in the car? i'm waiting for nadal to be the ambassador. you're waiting for nadal! laughter
10:35 am
so he's not at the local tennis club. how about a party full of diplomats? so what are people in bangui saying about this, in diplomatic hall? what do they think about boris being a diplomat? there are rumours. really? the rumours are all over the place. i am german, yes, but i haven't met any german yet in town. there seems to be only six german residents in central african republic. this is somebody that a lot of people know. a lot of people respect. and all of a sudden you are hearing stuff like that. you're reading stuff like that. you actually don't know what to think. send me an e—mail if he is here. i will. just to tell me that he is here,
10:36 am
and to stay at home! chuckles this is thought to be the document presented in court by mr becker's lawyers as proof he couldn't be prosecuted. so what does the man whose signature's on it have to say? it's completely fake. today i saved my colleague of justice. i asked him to help me. to know exactly what happened, who gave and delivered this passport. who gave the passport to sir boris becker. is mr boris becker a subject in the investigation you are carrying out? yes, because he has a diplomatic passport of central african republic. if it shows that he participated to have this passport in the wrong way, not really. we try to have cooperation with the court ofjustice
10:37 am
for the land where he lives. well, let's get more now on the warning from the european aircraft manufacturer, airbus, that it'll have to reconsider its future in britain if the government fails to agree a brexit deal with the eu. the company, which employs 14,000 people in the uk, says it could lose a billion euros a week if there's no transition agreement. well, the labour mp mark tami joins me from the company's broughton factory in north wales, where airbus employs around 6,000 people. thank you forjoining me this morning. how concerned are you buy these warnings this morning from british aerospace? it is a very hard—hitting british aerospace? it is a very ha rd—hitting report british aerospace? it is a very hard—hitting report and i think the most damning aspect about it is the company said they have been trying
10:38 am
for over 12 months to get their point across to the government but nobody appears to be listening, and if the company director at airbus can't get across i don't know what hope there is for any other companies. give a sense of the impact there would be on the community there, if the factory where the close, if they were to move out? you have around 7000 people directly working here, then you have supply and companies around the site. it would be devastating on the site. it would be devastating on the local economy. these are good qualityjobs, well—paid jobs, apprentices as well. it would, as i say, have an absolutely devastating effect is in the longer term the company decided to invest elsewhere. so what's your message to the government this morning, from the people in your constituency in north wales ? people in your constituency in north wales? they have to start listening to business, listening to people outside of the tory party, and
10:39 am
a lwa ys outside of the tory party, and always seeing the prime minister going from one crisis to the next and making political decisions that keep her party together rather than listening to what the actual public needs to invest in. mark tami, thanks so much forjoining us this morning. very grateful for your time. thank you. now, after her partner died, azra sabados would look through his facebook profile and seek comfort from the photos and videos of them together. she'd even send her boyfriend — mirza krupalija — messages on there as a way of working through her grief. but six months later, his profile disappeared overnight. azra says that no close family members had asked for them to be deleted. she spent a year talking to facebook trying to find out who had made the request and how it been signed over before she or the next of kin were notified. now, a high courtjudge has ordered facebook to hand over that information, but azra has been told all the pictures, videos and messages have been lost. we can speak now to azra.
10:40 am
thank you so much for coming in today. i want to take you back to what i appreciate is an incredibly difficult period in your life. march 2016, your boyfriend, mirza, he died, very sudden, compounded the grief for you. i yes, a sudden death, he had a fatal heart attack, and it was extremely difficult to deal with. i had a lot of support from a network, my friends. i was given books on how to deal with sudden death of a loved one, i was given counselling. it really was very hard. while i was still dealing with that first stage of grief, this
10:41 am
happened with facebook. but let me ta ke happened with facebook. but let me take you back. during that period of grief, you had always had a long—distance relationship, hadn't you? facebook had been an internal pa rt you? facebook had been an internal part of your communication and your relationship? yes, that's right. we used messenger a lot. i don't know why. we topped on skype every night as well, but messaging on facebook was so well, but messaging on facebook was so easy and so quick —— we spoke on skype every night. at any point in the day, you could do it quickly, and obviously in addition to that we both shared our travels, are moments together. it was lovely when he passed away to sometimes just look at his comments, or one—day open one photo album, and maybe years there with his friends and i am looking at that, and other day i would be looking at our pictures are reading comments, and the fact that i
10:42 am
continued to write to him, just, you do everything in those first stage is the kind of preserved that feeling of somebody‘s presence in your life. you claim to all the little things you have —— cling to all the little things, maybe presents, the car keys, mobile phone in the same place, but with facebook it was almost like he was alive, communicating, reading through the messages. the day i discovered it wasn't there was one of those particularly difficult days when i found it very difficult days when i found it very difficult to get up and get moving and go to work and perform and everything, and i just and go to work and perform and everything, and ijust picked up my phone to read one of his old messages, as a pick—up, as inspiration, as support, and it wasn't there. and i thought maybe something was
10:43 am
wrong with my phone, and i turned on the laptop, and the messages are not there. and i thought, maybe, because i had so many messages of support and condolences and everything, i thought maybe it had just gone down. not there. then i noticed on my facebook page, where your relationship status shows... not there, he's not there. and i cannot find his profile. what did that do to you, in that moment of grief, and what you say was an incredibly hard day already? it wasjust like total disbelief. i collapsed. day already? it wasjust like total disbelief. icollapsed. i day already? it wasjust like total disbelief. i collapsed. i contacted a friend, saying, i can't see mirza, can you? nobody could. we all started thinking, what's happened? called facebook immediately on the same day. i thought maybe it was some error and it would be rectified, and they thought, oh, maybe my computer was hacked or something and i said, no, no, it's
10:44 am
not about my computer, my profile. my not about my computer, my profile. my partner's profile disappeared. and the help desk couldn't help me on the phone and that is when i started e—mailing and asking for information. and i was told quite soon in the e—mail correspondence that the profile was deleted, and that the information was not recoverable. i didn't believe that, and i don't know much about it but a lot of people told me, who know more about it, that that can't be true, that even when deleted data can be recovered, and somebody mentioned a certain time period of 90 days, so i started quickly to put pressure on facebook thinking, 0k, it is still there somewhere so if i can prove that whoever requested it to be deleted is just not one of us, not family, not a friend, and how can i request like that be verified? did
10:45 am
you get answers from facebook? they just kept on saying, actually, at one point somebody said, somebody said afamily one point somebody said, somebody said a family member requested it, andi said a family member requested it, and i said, no, a family member didn't requested. and they said the proof of that was supplied and that was enough for facebook to actually delete somebody, that is their process , delete somebody, that is their process, and that was confirmed to us months and months later, when i sought legal advice and when we sent some official letters. facebook ignored all of them, ignored all the legal deadlines, didn't reply to those letters. we had to trace and search through data protection commissioner, who put pressure on facebook. facebook responded to them, to see that according to their policy —— say that according to their policy they received proof of
10:46 am
azra mirza's death and they deleted the profile —— proof of mirza's death. and they said it was in line with the policy. you took legal advice. you were not prepared to sit back, and they have received a court orderfrom facebook to hand over this information. so to be clear, they are not suggesting facebook has done anything wrong and is involved in this, they are saying they need to hand over the information about whoever the third party was requested that that facebook account be deleted? that is correct. when the data commissioner said in his letter —— data protection commissioner said in his letter that facebook had acted in line with their policy, it sounded like there was nothing we could do about that. although i don't see that policy as a proper policy. we lose the procedure? somebody contacts you to say, this person died, and you delete it. where is the verification
10:47 am
process of this person's identity of any connection with the person? why not co nta ct any connection with the person? why not contact the partner who is publicly there, named on the profile, and see, we received this request? —— request, is it a valid request? —— request, is it a valid request? is there anything you want done? but when you are told that is the policy you feel there is nothing you can do but be their request information on who this person is. you have any idea when facebook is going to tell you who the person is who requested the deletion of the account? they are given 21 days from the date they get served the court order, but i was told in court where i was yesterday, submitting the last piece of paperwork, that it may take up piece of paperwork, that it may take up to three months for court, kiss magna international office to actually serve that order, probably because of their and things —— for
10:48 am
the international office to actually serve that order. it won't be any time soon, but i have waited long enough so it doesn't matter. listen, we co nta cted enough so it doesn't matter. listen, we contacted facebook for a statement, but they are yet to respond. but thank you so much for coming in and sharing your story thank you. still to come... roseanne without roseanne — the us tv sitcom is coming back in a spin—off series without its star, after the programme was cancelled when she sent out a racist tweet. it's 70 years since the empire windrush ship arrived at tilbury docks in essex. those 492 people were among thousands who came here from the caribbean after the second world war to rebuild britain. it was an iconic moment in britain's multi—cultural, post—colonial history that is being recognised today. but the celebrations have been overshadowed by the ongoing scandal of how the windrush generation and their families a thanksgiving service is being held at westminster abbey to mark the 70th anniversary of the landing of the windrush — the prime minister is expected to attend. 0ur correspondent helena lee is there.
10:49 am
what's the atmosphere like this morning? what are we expecting to take place today? as you say, it is a day of celebration here today, marking the 70 years, as you mentioned there, to the day, when nearly 500 migrants from the caribbean disembarked off via empire windrush at tilbury docks. they came to britain for a better life. they applied forjobs, they were invited by the british government, and many brought up families here and today that is being recognised at westminster abbey. you may be able to see behind usa abbey. you may be able to see behind us a long queue of people going into the abbey, where once they are inside, and the service begins, at midday today, they will hear poetry, songs, and there will also be required performing —— a choir
10:50 am
performing at the service, the same choir who performed at the wedding of prince harry and meghan markle. and in the congregation members of the windrush generation will be there, and also some senior politicians will be attending as well. so it is a day of celebration, but also for some of the windrush generation, as you say, it will be a bittersweet day, given the scandal surrounding some of the people who came over, the migrants from the caribbean, who it emerged recently that some were wrongly deported, and some have been facing problems getting health care access, and this was all because of a tightening of immigration laws. so a difficult day for some. i don't think people are going to forget about the problems that have been faced, but here at westminster abbey and celebration, and the service here begins at midday today. helena, we were speaking to some people a little earlier on the programme who felt it
10:51 am
was inappropriate to have this occasion marked the in light of what was happening with the windrush scandal. many people still not having their right to remain sorted so having their right to remain sorted so far. there is some form of backlash here still against the government despite what's happening today? yes, and you will remember that amber rudd, the home secretary, resigned over the windrush scandal. there were problems with the paperwork that migrants and also the children who came over with their pa rents, children who came over with their parents, so there were issues of paperwork. some of the paperwork had been destroyed. so i think it is a difficult day for some, and i heard somebody earlier on talking on bbc radio saying, "this is going to be a celebration, but with a small c," so i think they will be thinking about that in the service today, and
10:52 am
whether the problems surrounding the windrush scandal is going to be recognised here at westminster abbey, that we don't know at the moment, but i think it will be very much on people's maines, the difficulty many of them are still facing. are correspondent, helena lee, from outside westminster abbey, where there will be that thanksgiving service to mark the landing of the windrush. american tv network abc has ordered a spinoff to the comedy series roseanne, without the involvement of its creator and namesake, roseanne barr. the sitcom was cancelled last month after ms barr posted a racist tweet. the show had recently returned after a 20—year break. the original writers, producers and cast members are all involved in the new show, which will be called the conners. with me now is emma bullimore, freelance entertainment reporter and tv critic. she's covered this story since the beginning.... the main us write a hot water
10:53 am
roseanne barr got into with this tweet. it wasn't even the jupiter, she replied as part of a conversation —— she replied as part of a conversation -- can you remind us of the hot water. it was a comparison the hot water. it was a comparison the planet of dates, horrible and racist, and the network acted very swiftly. it is hard to get the tv hit, and this had consolidated figures of 20 odd million, and even in america which is a much bigger country, that is still huge. you know, you would think they may be trying look for excuses but, no, eve ryo ne trying look for excuses but, no, everyone was quite impressed with how they said, no, enough, we are cancelling this, and having had something to think the spin off seems to be their answer. pretty quick, the announcement of this spin off? yes, you can't help thinking this was undermined for a little well. they know that roseanne was a bit of a loose cannon. they have had to reach a settlement with her. she will have no financial or creative inputin will have no financial or creative input in the new series but she does intellectual rights to the
10:54 am
