today at five — the man convicted of the death of charlotte brown — who was killed in a speedboat accident on the thames — has handed himself in to authorities in georgia. jack shepherd had been on the run since march and was convicted of charlotte's manslaughter in his absence. a postmortem examination found charlotte died after being thrown from the boat during a date with mr shepherd in december 2015. earlier speaking to the bbc, her father appealed directly to him to give himself up. please, if you're watching this, hand yourself in. there's an awful lot of resources from the police, the home office, national crime agency, they're looking for you. we'll have the latest on this breaking news. the other main stories on bbc news at 5... theresa may tells mps that delaying brexit will not solve anything — as leading brexiteers insist on changes to the irish backstop. hopes fade of finding missing cardiff city footballer emiliano sala alive — as the search operation continues off the channel islands.

britain's most senior counter—terrorism officer warns that right—wing extremists could exploit what he describes as the "febrile" atmosphere around brexit. tesco‘s former finance director is cleared over a £250 million fraud and false accounting scandal. it's five o'clock. within the past hour — it's being reported that jack shepherd who was convicted of the manslaughter of charlotte brown, has handed himself in to the authorities in georgia where he's been in hiding. he was convicted at the old bailey in his absence — and sentenced to six years.

yesterday, charlotte brown's family met the home secretary sajid javid to get reassurances everything was being done to find him. charlotte — who was 2a — was killed in a speedboat accident on the river thames while on a date. earlier, charlotte's father and sister described what she was like, and said it was wrong that jack shepherd was able to receive legal aid for his appeal. she, she had so much ahead of her, and just — she was learning to drive, she just got her first car. just got promotion. had a promotion at work, her career was on its way. and she'sjust going to be missed, every single day, i think. i want to ask you about the fact that the ministry ofjustice say they've launched what they call an urgent review into the fact that jack shepherd is able to claim legal aid, to pay for his appeal against his conviction and sentence.

what do you think of that? for me, if they've organised a review, it tells me that people in the ministry ofjustice also think it's wrong, and they're also reacting, probably, to public outrage, that somebody who's been able to basically stick two fingers up at the justice system and be a fugitive and then be able to use the legal system in this manner is not right. should legal aid be denied to him? i think whatever safeguards can be put in place need to be put in place, to stop the abuse of legal aid, because it is a privilege to get legal aid, it shouldn't be able to be abused in this manner. a quick note from the metropolitan

police, they are telling us, we have received information from the national crime agency that jack shepherd who is wanted on an international arrest warrant is in the custody of police in georgia. his identity has yet to be officially confirmed but we do believe it is him. if he is confirmed as jack shepherd, extradition proceedings will be instituted immediately. if you have justjoined us, jack shepherd was sentenced to six years of imprisonment in july after these sentenced to six years of imprisonment injuly after these —— after he was convicted of mons —— manslaughter after the death of charlotte brown. our correspondent is with us, where are we? the georgian authorities have confirmed they are trying to identify a man, it is believed it is indeed jack

shepherd. if that is the case, all the legal measures will be put in place which is basically extradition. then it will be up to the british authorities here to decide the next steps. inevitably, one assumes there has to be punitive measures for effectively jumping trial. this was a very dramatic case, although jack shepherd trial. this was a very dramatic case, althouthack shepherd had appeared in court injanuary last year, he denied the charges of manslaughter, he was sentenced in absentia because he disappeared. there were further reports he was in georgia, in tbilisi. it is an extraordinary case. timing of course, not that surprising, given that we had that emotional appeal from the family so it looks like there has been behind the scenes pressure to get the georgian authorities to quickly identify this man. if it is jack shepherd, and bring him home. this has come in

from the family while you were updating us, from charlotte brown's father, he said he was phoned by the police liaison officer and informed that jack shepherd police liaison officer and informed thatjack shepherd had been police liaison officer and informed that jack shepherd had been arrested in georgia. clearly, he is saying specifically that jack shepherd has been arrested in georgia. either like to thank everybody who has supported the family through this difficult time, in particular my mp and the home secretary and all the press and media who have been a tremendous support. i feel very emotional says charlotte's father, that my daughter will get some justice. we have an image the of the meeting. as you say, there was an appealfrom the meeting. as you say, there was an appeal from the father today. for those viewers who are not familiar with what happens on december 2015 which led to the conviction, what can you tell us? it was a tragic

case. it was a date, these two people i met up on social media. they had had something to drink and went out on a speedboat on the tens. —— on the river thames. it came out on court that the boat had hit a trailer near wandsworth bridge and charlotte was thrown from the boards and she died from being exposed to the water and being a nurse for some time. the charges brought were manslaughter. —— immersed for some time. there was no intention now but nevertheless it was manslaughter for ray —— reckless behaviour. that was a charge that jack ray —— reckless behaviour. that was a charge thatjack shepherd denied. the drama then switched to his absence and subsequent conviction and sentencing of up to six years by that case. the focus has been on

this man who has been a fugitive. he escaped after a terrible tragedy of his date, they did not know each other terribly well but nevertheless, it is unusual for cases like this for people simply not to appear. it will be interesting to hear if he is indeed in the process of being brought back to the uk, the legal advice and the sanction he may face from having absconded. these pictures are coming in from tbilisi in georgia, this is they say jack shepherd arriving at they say jack shepherd arriving at the police station, no, it is a television studio because he has given an interview today. this is him at the television station in georgia a short while ago. those images coming in now. we may be in a

position to have part of that interview a little later on. what is the sequence of events now? the extradition mentioned by the police, how do you map up —— map out the timetable —— timescale? how do you map up —— map out the timetable -- timescale? these types of cases are unusual. there will be in extradition process which will happen behind closed doors. 0ne would imagine there will be a press conference that the metropolitan police will holed to confirm he is backin police will holed to confirm he is back in british custody. there will then be a lot of legal wrangling behind the scenes to work out exactly what happens next. he is a convicted man. he was in the process of appealing, that is the controversy about legal aid. i think we can expect to hear a little more when he arrives back at a little less detail about the exact process, there will be a lot of formalities

that need to be confirmed but we are likely to hear a further court case one would imagine for the crime of not being present throughout the duration of his trial. we will pause for a moment because we will be in a position to have the interview with him ina position to have the interview with him in a short while. thank you very much. let us move on. the prime minister has told mps that any attempt to delay brexit will not "solve the situation" — she says the decision is still between ‘the deal, no—deal or no brexit‘. labour's jeremy corbyn accused her of having a ‘closed mind' to other brexit options — such as labour's plan for a customs union with the eu. the leading conservative brexit supporter —jacob rees—mogg — fuelled speculation that he might support mrs may's plan — when he said that ‘any deal would be better than not leaving at all‘ —— but he repeated his opposition

to the so—called ‘backstop' — the guarantee against a hard border between northern ireland and ireland — which is currently an intergal part of the prime minister's agreement. 0ur political correspondent nick eardley reports. could theresa may's hardest critics be won over? for months, they rallied against her brexit plan but as the government scrambles for support, a hint at what could win over brexiteers — reopening the withdrawal agreement with europe. the only way to get it is by reopening the text. that is what they will have to do. this is realpolitik. and if they do do that, people like me will consider what is done. but what people like me are not saying is that "here's a blank cheque to get a few warm words and then suddenly we'll change our minds". others too think a solution is possible. i think that there is every chance that if the uk now negotiates with conviction and if we really mean it this time, we can secure the changes that we need. thanks a lot.

the number of mps theresa may has to win over is huge. remember, she spent months trying to win over her conservative critics and the dup. but maybe, just maybe, are some of those who have been most outspoken on the deal opening the door to being won over? removing the controversial irish backstop remains the key issue, but it's far from clear that that can be delivered. europe says it must stay. translation: the question of the backstop goes far beyond that of trade and goods. this question has to do with men and women, who need certainty. order. questions to the prime minister. and back at home, there's precious little sign that opposition parties are being won over. if the prime minister is serious about finding a solution, which of her red lines is she prepared to abandon? could she name a single one? he wants the pm to consider

a closer relationship through a permanent customs union. that would infuriate some in her party, though, and she didn't quite give a definitive answer. he makes claims about minds being closed. he asks about red lines. why doesn't he just come and talk about it? brexit hasn't been easy. months of toing and froing, confusion over where we will eventually end up. but if the pm can welcome some back into the fold, a vision might have a fighting chance. our chief political correspondent, vicki young is at westminster for us this evening. can we start with some suggestions in some quarters that some of the pro—brexiteers may be in a position to be slightly more flexible? does that make sense? i think only if there is a move on the issue of the

backstop. there are other concerns about the deal which could be set to one side. that is not saying it is a huge task because the eu are making it clear they will not budge at the moment. that is recognition in government it will not be enough to tinker with the political declaration, that is the non—legally binding part which talks about future relationship. that is recognition that has to be reopening the withdrawal agreement to make sure this is legally binding. the language is slightly softer, some brexiteers have said they could be willing to get behind theresa may if there was that change. partly because they are looking at the other side of the house of commons where there are these moves to seize control of the agenda from mps, to bring forward their own bills to delay article 50 for example, brought forward by yvette cooper, 110w brought forward by yvette cooper, nowjeremy corbyn is meeting with

her this afternoon to discuss it because crucial to all of this is the labour front and jeremy corbyn, if they were to get behind the yvette cooper amendment, it has a good chance of getting through the commons. equallyjeremy corbyn does not want to be seen to be blocking the exit. so he has a fine line to tread as well. but there has to be a huge number of mps that change their mind before theresa may can be remotely confident about is getting through parliament in a few weeks. if the meantime she has gone back to the eu, that is obviously going to be the next step. she has to say to them, this is what would get it through parliament and we have to move on that. thank you very much, vicky young there for us. of course the prime minister reflecting her demand for talks and taunting mr corbyn, saying why are you not talking to me? part of strategy has

been to try and reach out to other parties, in her words, been to try and reach out to other parties, in herwords, even been to try and reach out to other parties, in her words, even though it is late in the day to do so. let's speak to our political correspondent nick eardley who's in downing street. put us in the frame about talks which involves some of the devolved administrations. theresa may said in her commons statement on monday she would spend more time talking to the devolved government is on the table and what potentially could change to win them over. at the moment the first minister of scotland and the first minister of scotland and the first minister of wales, are in their having conversations with the prime minister about exactly that. i have to say however, this is not a forum in which there will be a great deal of agreement. we have the prime minister the numerous times, this deal should work for the will of the uk. the devolved government seem to disagree completely. nicola sturgeon said before the meeting that theresa

may is the one who needs to start moving, it is not about other people offering her solutions to get hard deal through, it is about the prime minister moving her red lines so that a compromise option can be found. nicola sturgeon made it clear she wants the date to leave the eu to be put back and article 50 process to be extended. feels that it could be put back to the public ina it could be put back to the public in a referendum. the welsh first minister is not particularly more susceptible to agreeing a deal. he has said if the logjam in the house of commons does not start to shift and soon, we may be in a place where there needs to be another referendum. the pregnancy is keen to be seen to be having these conversations with the devolved governments and reaching out. —— the prime minister is clean. there is something we can work with here, give me your ideas, we will listen

and if they are possible, we will try and make them happen. it is unlikely that at the end of these talks we will hear either the welsh first minister or scottish scene agreement has been reached. thank you very much for the latest in downing street. —— scottish saying agreement has been reached. thank you very much. ijust to update you with the latest, jack shepherd has handed himself in to the authorities in tblisi in georgia. he has been convicted for the manslaughter of charlotte brown in december 2015. he handed himself in today. we are still getting reports, the metropolitan police says extradition procedures will begin immediately if his identity is confirmed but all sources seem to

suggest it is him. a reporter is in the georgian capital. rayhan demetrie is in the georgian capital tbilisi . iam standing i am standing outside the police station and according to the lawyer of jack station and according to the lawyer ofjack shepherd, he is station and according to the lawyer of jack shepherd, he is currently being held here. he presented himself here earlier. we have spoken to his lawyer and he told us that jack contacted him asking for legal aid and they came to this police station to turn himself in. we also know that a few minutes ago an independent tv channel here in georgia aired an interview that was recorded earlier today with jack shepherd. they've recorded footage of him turning himself into the police. based on some of the snippets i have heard so far, what he said in the interview, he

maintains his innocence. he says not all information, he does not agree with the court decision, he is now working with his lawyer here in georgia to deliver his message. he also confirmed that he arrived in georgia in march 2018. what is the likely next step is going to be, what is the timetable from now on? again, according to his lawyer, he said an extradition request will be in place but it might take some time for the prosecutor office here in georgia to receive the paperwork and all the documentation from the british authorities. the legal procedure for the extradition will be up toa procedure for the extradition will be up to a court and judge here in

georgia to decide, based on those documents whether or not to extradite jack shepherd. he also told his lawyer that he does not feel safe going back to the uk. this is what he said in his interview to this tv channel. to be honest, i was rushing here to get near and did not get the chance to listen to the in school. we will hear more in hours to come. —— to listen to the interview. we will see if we can interview. we will see if we can interview jack later. thank you very much for the update, we may speak to you later, our correspondent in tbilisi with the latest on the story which has been unfolding there. hope is fading in the search for the plane carrying the cardiff city footballer — emiliano sala — which went missing on monday night. the player and pilot david ibbotson were travelling back to wales from france,

when the light aircraft disappeared from radar screens near guernsey. it's believed sala sent a message to family members — saying the plane looked like it was going to fall apart — and he was ‘really scared'. our wales correspondent tomos morgan reports. 36 hours on, it's still unclear what has happened to cardiff city's new striker, emiliano sala, the plane and his pilot. on monday evening, the footballer was flying from nantes to wales. during the flight, an emergency call was made to air—traffic control requesting to land, but soon after they lost contact, around the islands of guernsey and alderney. argentinian media have reported that the 28—year—old sent a whatsapp voice message in which he said, "hey, brothers, how are you all?" "guys, i'm so tired, i was here in nantes doing thing after thing after thing, it was nonstop." "i'm here on the plane which seems like it's going to fall to pieces, and i'm going to cardiff, i'm so scared."

his father in argentina said he was worried for his son's safety. translation: the hours go by, and it makes me think of the worst, ijust want them to find him. the last thing they said is that the communication ended when they crossed the channel. rescue services have searched over 1000 square miles of water already and have resumed their work at first light again this morning. if they're in the water, i would have said the chances of survival now have diminished to almost zero, because it's very cold in the water out there, it has been rough overnight as well. if they're safely in a liferaft, then their chances of survival are much greater. as one of the top goal—scorers in french football's top flight over the past few seasons, the £15 million signing of emiliano sala was seen as a huge coup for cardiff city football club. now, as time passes, hope and optimism amongst the fans is diminishing. really devastating, as you can see,

people are trying to show their best respects towards him. we're, yeah, really struggling to come to terms with what's happened, really. we were so excited to see him, and he's obviously not here, so we are very sad. cardiff city officials say the flight was not arranged or paid for by the club, but an investigation has begun into emiliano sala's travel on monday evening. tomos morgan, bbc news, cardiff. our reporter mike wilkins is at guernsey police station. bring us up—to—date on what has been said in the last couple of hours. in the last few minutes in fact we have had a message from guernsey police

saying they will be calling off the search this evening fairly shortly. if it is like yesterday, we heard the aircraft heading back to guernsey airport which we expect to see shortly. they say they are not find any trace of an aircraft. we hear conditions have been very challenging indeed. this morning there were waves of up to five metres in the search area which prevented some of the lifeboats getting to that area. there have been three aeroplanes in the air and one helicopter scouting 1500 square miles and they have been assisted by a french military jets miles and they have been assisted by a french militaryjets to white in that area. thank you very much indeed. the latest from guernsey police station. a former tesco director has been acquitted over a £250 million fraud and false accounting scandal. carl rogberg — the company's former finance director, was charged — along with two other directors — who were cleared at a previous trial.

the serious fraud office offered no evidence against mr rogberg at southwark crown court. our correspondent emma simpson was in court — she has more details. this was a rather convoluted process ? this was a rather convoluted process? it has been such a long saga, back in september 20 14th when this huge black hole was discovered in tesco's accounts and it sent shock waves around the city. it wiped £1 million or more off the value of the company. today carl rogberg was cleared, the serious fraud squad said it would not be offering any evidence against him. the other two defendants were acquitted last month after a judge halted the trial saying the evidence was so halted the trial saying the evidence was so weak it could not be put before a jury. that was the second trial, the first was abandoned after carl rogberg suffered a heart attack to his case was postponed until today so basically all three men

have been cleared of fraud and false accounting. there was a further twist, tesco did a deal with the serious fraud office to avoid prosecution and paid a £129 million fine. it points the finger of blame at the three defendants but they have all been acquitted. carl rogberg said he should never have been charged, the case was flawed from the outset and that was a rush tojudgment when from the outset and that was a rush to judgment when tesco did this deal with the serious fraud office. he spoke today on the steps of the court. the high courtjudge who actually heard the evidence, supported by three appeal court judges, found no evidence of guilt oi'i judges, found no evidence of guilt on behalf of those named in it. it is worthless and dishonest piece of paper with no credibility and yet it is still vigorously defended by tesco and the serious fraud office who stand alone in refusing to

acce pt who stand alone in refusing to accept the truth. all the defence solicitor in this case think this raises serious questions. one said it sounded an alarm bell for the criminal justice system, contradictory outcomes between a criminal trial and the dpa were unfairand criminal trial and the dpa were unfair and extraordinary. tesco and the serious fraud squad did not say much, they said the dpa still stands. no question this is a blow for the serious fraud squad and leaves them without a single conviction for the scandal. thank you very much. emma simpson giving us you very much. emma simpson giving us that information there. let us pause and take a look at the weather. hello there. hello there. we have seen some sunshine and some winter showers as well. we have also seen fog with temperatures barely reaching freezing. temperatures will plummet

tonight. les cold air in northern ireland, showers into scotland and northern england in the midlands. we could see wintry showers are high ground but not exclusively. we have the risk of icy stretches and freezing fog. here is the warm front introducing warmer air as —— which will make inroads into thursday. it was showers will clear towards the south and east, best of the sunshine through the eastern half of the uk. here it will remain cold with temperatures in low single figures. out to the west where the slightly milderair out to the west where the slightly milder air comes out to the west where the slightly milderaircomes in, out to the west where the slightly milder air comes in, the temperatures will do better. this is bbc news. the headlines. jack shepherd, who was convicted of the manslaughter of charlotte brown, has handed himself in to police in georgia, after months on the run. charlotte was killed in a speedboat accident on the thames. theresa may tells mps that delaying

she says the decision is still between "the deal, no—deal or no brexit". but leading brexiteers insist on changes to the irish backstop. hopes fade of finding missing cardiff city footballer emiliano sala and his pilot alive. the search for their plane — which vanished from radar on monday — continues off the channel islands. britain's most senior counter—terrorism officer warns that right—wing extremists could exploit what he describes as the "febrile" atmosphere around brexit. good afternoon. west indies have made a solid start on day one of the first test against england in barbados. england have won their last two tests series but they have a terrible record in the caribbean.

joe root lost the toss — with windies choosing to bat first. kraig brathwaite and john campbell went along very nicely. but moeen ali's introduction saw the first breakthrough. campbell gone for 1m. since that, the england attack — without stuart broad, who was droppped to make way for an extra spinner — have barely troubled the host's top order. juventus striker gonzalo higuain is just "a few hours away" from completing his loan move to chelsea — that's according to their manager maurizio sarri. the 31—year—old argentine has been on loan at ac milan and has scored eight goals this season. the club failed to register him by midday so he can't play against spurs in the league cup semifinal tomorrow night. in my first season in naples, he did very well, he scored 36 goals in 35

matches, in serie a. this season he scored 397go4al, he did very very scored 39 goal, he did very very well. for sure, he scored 39 goal, he did very very well. forsure, he is scored 39 goal, he did very very well. for sure, he is one of the strikers in my career. ahead of that league cup semi final between chelsea and tottenham, mauricio pochettino has spoken about his compatriot emiliano sala. the cardiff striker is still missing after the plane he was travelling on disappeared near the channel islands on monday night. i want to send all my love and my positive energy, and for his family, thatis positive energy, and for his family, that is for argentina, santa fe and of course, all the nantes, the club, the family in france and of course cardiff and all my wish and my hope, to wait for some good news. david beckham is set tojoin phil and gary neville, nicky but, ryan giggs and paul scholes as co—owners of non league side salford city.

the "class of 92" bought the club in 2014 and have overseen three promotions in four seasons. subject to approval from the fa, beckham will take a 10% stake. singapore businessman peter lim is the largest shareholder with 40% of the club. beckham already owns american club inter miami. five years of trying to get the team in miami going, and now it's finally on its way, now i'm able to get involved. seeing the story, seeing what they've done with the club, the stadium, obviously having peter is a huge part of this, it is a special group of people. to be part of this now, incredible team is serena williams says she "did not choke" after missing four match points to allow karolina pliskova to win a dramatic australian open quarterfinal. williams lost the first set, but won the second to force a decider and was 5—1 up in it..... but she turned her ankle on her first match point and went on to waste three more as we saw one

of the great comebacks, the czech seventh seed storming back to win six games in a row to take the third 7—5. williams had been targetting a record equalling 24th grand slam singles title but it's pliskova who advances. there's been a boost for the ireland rugby union team. their talisman, jonny sexton, the world player of the year, should be fit for the start of their six nations defence against england next weekend. the leinster fly—half hasn't played for a month because of a knee injury but will train fully tomorrow. head coachjoe schmidt says he's confident that sexton will be ready for their tournament opener in dublin. owen farrell is also expected to be fit for england. we'll have more for you in sportsday at 6.30. britain's most senior counter—terrorism officer has warned

that right—wing extremists could exploit what he described as the ‘febrile' atmosphere around brexit. assistant commissioner neil basu said he was concerned about the ‘creeping threat‘ posed by far—right groups. our home affairs correspondent danny shaw has the story. march 2017 — the murderous attack by khalid masood outside the houses of parliament was the first of five terror attacks in six months. since that day, police and the security service, m15, have foiled 18 other plots, most of them islamist inspired. four plots involved right wing extremists. they make up a growing amount of work for counterterrorism detectives, and now there are concerns the heated debate over brexit could stir things up further. we saw a spike in hate crime after the referendum. that‘s never really receded. so there‘s always a possibility that people are being radicalised by the kind of febrile atmosphere we‘ve got at the moment and we want people to report anything that we think is going to lead to violent confrontation

and people need to calm down. to thwart terrorism, police need the public‘s help. that‘s why a new campaign is being launched, to encourage people to report suspicious activity. the new counter terrorism film will be shown at 120 cinemas across the country, reaching a potential audience of 5 million people. it comes at a time when the terror threat level remains at severe, with police carrying out a record number of investigations. there are currently over 700 counterterror operations across the uk, according to police. last year they received more than 13,000 calls and messages from the public about terrorism. one in five contained significant pieces of information or tip—offs. an added concern now for police is what happens if britain leaves the european union without a deal. counterterrorism officers say a no—deal brexit would be a very bad thing. but the home office says it is working intensively to put no

deal contingency plans in place. these are unpredictable times, but the message from police is to stay calm and let them know if anything‘s not right. danny shaw, bbc news. let‘s discuss this a little further with dr russell foster from king‘s college london — who‘s currently researching the rise of the far right in relation to brexit and european elections. good to have you with us, the blunted question to start is, is there a rise in the far right in the uk? there certain sip is is the short answer but a more immediate question is how we go about defining the far right. what we have seen in the far right. what we have seen in the last few years, in british politics and to an extent across europe and the western world is what they call a right turn, a societies

moving towards right—wing politics because of the failures of globalisation and concerns over national identity, now what we are talking about these days, is the new right, we are not discussing a bunch of neo—nazi skinheads in a pub car park, the new right shows variation, there are many and i"; park, the new right shows variation, there are many and between e factions, eat want ' 7 ' factions, eat want we 7 ' are ‘actions, eat want we 7 7 community... . old , .. community... . aid analogue broader reach than the old analogue neo—nazis and they are more middle class. this is not a traditional working or post working class group, but often university educated, often youthful, often well—off, so their concerns are not just youthful, often well—off, so their concerns are notjust based in economic equalities but over what they see as genuine concerns over their identity. there is a spectrum

of views here and this is why people get sensitive about how they are categorised. when we have a senior police officer talking about the februariry atmosphere round one political event, the brexit process in case, what kind of group is he referring to when he talks about worries that you know there can be extremes which lead to you know violence or other kind of consequence, how would you characterise that? he is right to point out the implied threat of organisations such as national action thing like scottish dawn or combat 18. what is more likely is lone wolf events like the man who killed jo cox mp during the referendum or the young fellow in cumbria who planned to have a knife attack in a gay bar. not organised activetiveties but random single event, this is less significant. in terms of the rise of the right.

isolated possibilities are less significant than organised new right community, affecting political discourse, and affecting mainstream politics, what we have seen since brexit, mostly in europe, we saw it in the netherlands, in italy, france, germany and austria, we have seen new right movement, either gaining power and taking control of the state apparatus, or becoming so vocal and popular that mainstream parties adopt a lot of their rhetoric and policies to try and claw voters back. the research i am doing is arguing in the aftermath of brexit, if or whether it happens, we are going to see an increase in the sense of betrayal among many british voters who voted for leave. a sense that the government a botched job on negotiations, if we end up remains there will be a great sense of a sta b there will be a great sense of a stab in the back, if we have a soft brexit there will be a sense of betrayal and if there is a hard

brexit, the economic consequences of this will end up hurting people who are already the most despairing at the time of the referendum. so in the time of the referendum. so in the aftermath of brexit we are going to see a further rise of the new right. how will that manifest itself in terms of elections, because it is not so much those groups which may be agitating on the fringes of political activity, but how do you think that could affect, is it to do with adopting policy, how does that ma nifest with adopting policy, how does that manifest itself? a possible answer could be looking at what has happened in europe since 2016. we have seen traditional establish. party, centre—left socialist and centre—right kvitovas being wiped out by newcomer populist parties, although that has so many mean, we could see the same thing here, there has been discussion of the labour party splitting in two and of the conservative party splitting in two. i don‘t think either will happen. these are parties that have been

round for 100, 16 years for the tory, what could happen in the aftermath of brexit, a wide sense of betrayal will be a fertile ground for a newcomer party, a couple of yea rs for a newcomer party, a couple of years ago, nobody would have anticipated alternative deutschland, la liga or emmanuel macron‘s party. a couple of years from now we may see an unknown party emerge to take advantage of people‘s sense of despair at what they feel is a government and system thatjust doesn‘t listen to them. government and system thatjust doesn't listen to them. thank you for coming in, very interesting to talk to you. the spanish—owned bank, santander, is slashing its branch network by almost a fifth, putting more than one thousand, two hundred jobs at risk. it blamed the closures on ‘changes in how customers are choosing to carry out their banking‘. the bank said branch transactions had fallen by nearly a quarter in the past three years, while digital transactions

had almost doubled. the first criminal trial of senior uk banking executives, in the wake of the financial crisis, began today in south london. the case against four former barclays executives has been brought by the serious fraud office over barclays‘ £11.8 billion rescue. the bank avoided a uk bailout in 2008 by raising funds from middle eastern investors. all four have pleaded not guilty. consumer campaigner martin lewis has dropped his threat to sue facebook over fake adverts on the site that were using his image. mr lewis — who founded the money saving expert website — agreed to drop the case after facebook promised to introduce a "scam ads" reporting tool. the company also agreed to donate £3 million to a new citizens advice project. the victims‘ commissioner has warned that survivors of violent and sexual crime who apply for government compensation are being needlessly forced to relive details of the crimes against them.

baroness newlove said people who claimed financial support, to help with their recovery were being ‘retraumatised‘. our legal affairs correspondent clive coleman has the story. the four pins there, which i had to have all wired up... in 2014, daniel murphy was the subject of a vicious unprovoked attack. his face was stamped on, snapping his jaw. he needed three metal plates and pins to be surgically implanted. under my chin was just completely black. but getting compensation from the criminal injuries compensation authority has proved a nightmare for daniel and his fiancee, holly. i think over a two—week period, you must have rang them over 50 times. yeah, they lost photos of dan after his attack, which were very sensitive photos that we didn't want people to see. where we are now, them saying that you didn't have surgery, when he's got three metal plates in his mouth. nearly four years into the process, daniel‘s still fighting for compensation.

lady newlove‘s review of the scheme is damning. this should not be a process that‘s not victim—friendly. it should be a process that compensates victims without traumatising them yet again. the review finds the system‘s beset by delays, uncertainty and poor communication. nearly 40% feel they need a third party to negotiate the complexity of the process, and local victim support services are patchy and sometimes nonexistent. receiving compensation for a violent crime should be an end point for a victim. lady newlove wants radical changes to de—traumatise and simplify the process, including having a named caseworker for each victim, greater transparency, and free advice and support for the most vulnerable. the ministry ofjustice says it announced a review of the compensation scheme last year to ensure better support for victims and will consider today‘s findings.

daniel and holly simply want their compensation and to move on with their lives. clive coleman, bbc news. zimbabwe‘s security forces have been accused of "systematic torture" in their crackdown on protestors. the country‘s human rights commission has condemned, soldiers using live ammunition on demonstrators, the wave of arrests and the multiple reports of beatings. zimbabwe has been gripped by unrest, since a sharp rise in fuel prices over a week ago. christina lamb is with me — she‘s the chief foreign correspondent for the sunday times and has just returned from zimbabwe. that is right. so good to have you with us, thank you. your impressions of how deep this crisis i yes, it of how deep this crisis is? yes, it feels different to previous times,

because we did see mass beatings during robert mugabe‘s era, but this time, there is no election going on for usually the beatings would be in the run—up to election, this was random, and it is notjust against opposition activists, it is against ordinary people that were just fast asleep in their beds, it was the way it was done, too, a lot of the attacks were at night so people had police and army coming and banging on their doors and dragging them out and children too. i mentioned fume prices, that is clearly a factor, what for you are the various elements feeding this crisis? how has it come about to this stage? elements feeding this crisis? how has it come about to this stage7m is two things, underlying everything is two things, underlying everything is the economy. zimbabwe is in desperate straights and putting the fuel rises up to make it the most expensive place in the world to get fuel was the last straw. most people

rely on minibuses to the centre of town and the price has tripled. i was speaking to a deputy head mistress today who told me her salary is less than her transport cost, so people have really been pushed to the edge. it a country where most don‘t have job, pushed to the edge. it a country where most don‘t havejob, there is 90% unemployment. so people are really desperate and the other side you have a power struggle between different groups within the %50 different groups within the m so teen the president government, so teen the president and his deputy, the army chief, all this was largely going on while the president was abroad, trying to get money and planning to go to davos, how you could ask people to invest ina how you could ask people to invest in a country where the government is beating and killing people very difficult. which leave leads me to the next question, how you read the degree of stability of emmerson

mnangagwa‘s administration, given what you mentioned, does he have, you know, a credible path out of this or not? there were a lot of rumours he would go back and maybe not be in power any more, he has gone back and there is there appointing ministers and things today. but he has said that this should all stop and called for national unity, but the beatings are all going on, i was getting videos on the way here from people,er of more beatings today. people are in hiding in the bush, so it not quite at the level it was last week but it is still happening. given you have just come back it is very good to talk to you. ellie goulding and rita ora are among 16 public figures who‘ve agreed to be more open on social media about when they‘re paid to endorse products. the celebrities are said

to have a combined social media following of more than 7a million people — giving them the power to boost brands. our correspondent chris fox reports. is this a casual holiday photo, or an advertisement for a watch? injuly, the advertising standards authority ruled reality tv star louise thompson was not clear she had been paid to promote the accessory. in the age of social media, having a celebrity post about your product can be a more direct and personal way to promote it, but the cma is worried that the line between personal posts and promotion is becoming blurred. we‘ve looked across a number of posts on social media platforms by a range of different celebrities and influencers, and we‘ve been really concerned that a number of them have not been flagging at all that they‘d been paid to put up a post or received a gift or given a loan of the product. they need to do that. the 16 celebrities named by the cma have agreed to be clear about when they post ads. among them, singer rita ora,

video bloggerjim chapman, actress michelle keegan and pop star ellie goulding. all 16 avoided court action by agreeing to follow the rules, but the cma says it will take action if they break the rules urging them to change their ways. usually, when celebrities post an advert online but haven‘t been clear they‘ve been paid to do so, it‘s the advertising standards authority that gives them a slap on the wrist. but the asa mainly takes action against specific ads and campaigns, whereas the competition and markets authority can take action against people with the threat of big fines, or even time injail. that‘s how i felt when i was younger... it‘s the first time the cma has named the celebrities it has been investigating. but because the cases were not taken to court, there‘s no official ruling that the stars broke the law. i'm just going to let you have a moment at the end... but the threat of fines and jail time is a big step up from the slap on the wrist typically given

by the asa, and the cma is now turning its attention to the social networks, to see what changes could be made to make advertising online more transparent. chris fox, bbc news. children have been turning their backs on sugary drinks in the last nine years , that‘s according to the uk national diet and nutrition survey released today. the proportion of children drinking fizzy drinks has fallen by a third in the last nine years and around half of children today do not drink fizzy drinks at all. this has led to an overall reduction in sugar consumption, although all age groups still consumed above the recommended levels over the last nine years and people are still not getting their recommended five portions of fruit and vegetables every day. nutritionist amanda ursell is with me to make sense of these figures. we do really, because there is a

mixed message here. there is. and this data shows average changes in trends between 2008 and 9 data and data from 2016/17, there is a reduction in the percentage of people having sugary drinks and there is a reduction in the quantity of those having them. that is good news but as you said, we are having double the amount of sugar both in children and adults, that the government is recommending, and we are still having something like 36 billion litres of sugary drinks a year, so it is good news that it is going in the right direction but there is more wok to be done. there is good news round meat. that has dropped by 7a to 72 grammes a day. fruit and veg consumption hasn‘t changed when you look at the trends so adults are having round four pieces of fruit and veg a day. five is recommended and for children it

the 2.8. so we have to keep on banking the same message home. on the sugar point, you know, it‘s been so heavily advertised, so heavily campaigned upon, no—one really is unaware of the message, i can‘t imagine they are, so you could argue it is despite the drop, shouldn‘t the drop have been more dramatic and more radical, given the amount of money that has gone into it. we are looking at 16, 17 and the sugar lord justice levesony came in in 2018. the drinks companies were lowering them in the years before 2018. the more impact. data will come after that, so when we see the real effect of the sugary drinks having lowered the amount of sugar. we are going in the amount of sugar. we are going in the right direction, but as you say, we have a lot more work to do, we can‘t take our foot off the pedal. when we look at the figure, in terms of how people have changed their

habit, how much of a variation is there geographically or areas where people are more deprived orface more challenges, it is not a broad and constant performance. it tends to be in the socioeconomically advantaged area, where more progress is made and the opposite for the other end of the social spectrum. it isa other end of the social spectrum. it is a constant problem, but one of the things they would urge people to do is go back and look at the department of health, to look at change for life site, which has good information on reducing sugar and look at when you are looking at where to find information go to trusted sources, these are places where the messages are consistent because people level at me. you are changing your mind, but we are not, if we are looking evidence based nutrition remains consist went over

to the last 20, 30 year so it is where you source your information that,counts. stay with us because bbc news is at six with george alagiah who is back today and it is great to see him. i will be back at ten, in meantime the weather with mel. normal winter continue, we have had crisp sunshine round, we have had wintry shower, learning fog and temperatures barely made freezing today. so as we head into tonight it will be a cold one, a widespread frost under clear sky, away from northern ireland, where we have more cloud, and outbreaks of rain and showers working out of scotla nd rain and showers working out of scotland into northern england and into the midland, we could see snow, mainly over higher ground, and then of course with these sort of temperatures we are at risk of
