10:45 pm
this is bbc news, i'm shaun ley. the headlines at 11:00pm: “fur pm ‘ur vnw “tu-5“? . ' ' talking with her sons, it wasn't. talking with her sons, who obviously watch this a woman convicted of killing her husband with a hammer wins an appeal relationship, and said we would like against the murder conviction. oui’ relationship, and said we would like our mother to have another shot at sally challen now faces a retrial freedom, the first freedom she will after defence lawyers argued she had have had since she was 15. that's suffered decades of psychological abuse. her son gave his half a century. when she met father. reaction to the news. it's an amazing moment, you know. we have been talking, not necessarily come i don't know anybody who is injailfor necessarily come i don't know anybody who is in jail for having murdered their husband, or i might this case needs to be looked at be going there myself, but again, as we have always said as a family. the abuse our mother seriously, women who we know are in suffered, we felt, was never what we call a very controlling recognise properly and her mental condition was not taken into situations, and you know, today's account. a man is found guilty alpha male, probably things that one of manslaughter after he supplied person they can totally control is his girlfriend with drugs at the bestival music event in 2017. ceon broughton did little to help their way. and that women don't want 24—year—old louella fletcher—michie as she suffered a reaction to admit it, can't admit it, think to a class—a drug. they won't receive any sympathy, two men tell the bbc they were abused repeatedly particularly often well shot women, people who have money, but have a man who probably is in charge of the company, and feels he's totally in charge of her. interestingly,
10:46 pm
theresa may actually put this on the statue bucks when she was home secretary. this is interesting, isn't it? i wonder if the telegraph isn't it? i wonder if the telegraph is slightly over written a story in the sense that it's talking about dozens the sense that it's talking about d oze ns of the sense that it's talking about dozens of women could challenge as a result of this case, because in the end this case isn't about coercive control, it's about these two mental health conditions that she had that we re health conditions that she had that were not discussed at the trial. in some ways more interestingly, look into the future, the new legislation that's coming on coercive control, can you explain about that? theresa may when she was home secretary brought in this new lock, which meant that if you are in a relationship and you are found to have coercively control your partner, you could be sentenced to a maximum term of five years. you don't have to hit them or threatened unnecessarily. exactly. so the story is fascinating, and the reason why it's been cast in his course have control frame and not just the mental health one is because of the lies that are changing, and because of our understanding of what domestic abuse as to making
10:47 pm
traditionally what i thought it was physical violence, and now we are coming to understand that women get trapped in relationships where it's not a physical, but it's mental. exactly. a few month ago a woman was talking to me about this, in relation to bill it this legislation, she got to the stage where her husband was able to convince her that what was coming out of the tap was milk not water. exactly. he so twisted her mind by the way he believed and controlled her, and suppressed her. and controlling what car they drive, controlling who they see, what they eat, what they wear. the neck the government knew it to mastic abuse bill, the drafting out a few weeks ago it's going to recognise if it's approved, economic abuse as a whole new separate term, so we've talked about coercive control, and now economic abuse will be officially recognised, because again you can't believe your relationship. i think people get confused, and a lot of mainly men would, why don't you
10:48 pm
leave? why don't you just leave? it's not just menu leave? why don't you just leave? it's notjust menu here saying that. and women. the mac you can't, and if you don't have their own bank account, you have no access to money. you feel that you have never had access, how i manage? not to mention possibly children. not to mention someone possibly children. not to mention someone who perhaps hasn't worked for many years. the night your husband is telling you that you are useless empathetic and you are and you are on higher above, and no one wants to look at you. it is striking how far we have gone, i was thinking about a time when he ran a newspaper editor, and one of the things you are talking about wasn't domestic abuse, but it was in the context of battered wives and refugees, and people like that. i remember going there and seeing two of the refugees, absolutely, and i remember actually going out with a group of women, who were there, and they told me in every case that they we re they told me in every case that they were prepared to put up with being
10:49 pm
battered and bruised, but when the father battered and bruised the children, that's when they picked up and left. very interesting, women will suffer a lot to keep a family together. and they will stay to keep the children and the family home where there is money, where,... and where they have one another, and not to split up, and a very interestingly, the sons today. we look at the front of the daily mirror, that because very much on one of the sons, david, and what he had to say outside court afterwards. very striking actually, it's a very, it's a powerful front page, isn't it? because you have that photograph of the couple, apparently in their late 30s, maybe middle—aged, happily embraced. that there are loads of pictures i've been happily embraced, but that also shows you, and also in a funny way we are a more open society. but inafunny way we are a more open society. but in a funny way, particularly i would say often, middle—class families like that's probably are slightly more closed society, where perhaps
10:50 pm
you know, if you are living to one another, if there was a fight next door, you would hear it. if you are living in a house, a house, a detached house, somewhere nice, you don't know what's going on next—door, and you know that nobody knows what you're going through. it's also of to keep in mind not to be filled necessarily by a lovely picture. exactly. let's move onto the financial times. not your story this evening, because it is mr trump and mr kim, and then meeting was not a meeting of minds in hanoi. high hopes after their meeting in singapore, that this meeting today, this summit would resolve a huge ceremony, where they would shake hands and north korea would promise tod hands and north korea would promise to d nuclear eyes, but that didn't happen because north korea where insistent that before they did that, and deactivated certain sites and north korea they wanted all sanctions lifted donald trump said no, we are not going to do that and
10:51 pm
asa no, we are not going to do that and as a result we had to walk away, and there are various commentators in this article saying it's unprecedented to cancel this summit, the dinner, it's extra name for him to walk out in this way. and others are suggesting that it's all going to back to square one, that any hopes that we did have have failed. quite interestingly, people say here, that one of the things they did not want to dismantle was the uranium creations. because he can process uranium may have the potential for a process uranium may have the potentialfor a bomb. exactly, and the americans are saying they didn't realise that we knew that that existed. i mean this is what set spying and all the rest of that can do. it's always been sure that they seem to have more nuclear warheads than we ever knew about. i'm not a trump supporter but at least he had ago, and maybe this is not the end, the trouble as we feel that kim jong—un is is not the end, the trouble as we feel that kimjong—un is in the hands of china, and china without
10:52 pm
any doubt would want that peninsula, but what is terrible as the people in that country are starving, and it has been starving for some time, not just sanctions came in stop and all the money is going on uranium and nuclear weapons rather than making them feel happy this is a tablet corner of the world that we are very likely not to live in. it is striking the those just delete next statistics underlining how life on the peninsula has changed in the space of two generous generations. you can look at the relative heights of people in the north princess south korea, their general health they were the same people it was just korea before the war at least and now in that period they have had such dramatic change in their fortu nes such dramatic change in their fortunes as a result of being among country or the other what you think of mrcan country or the other what you think of mr can underestimate trump's desperation for a deal, did he did
10:53 pm
he think he's going to be a pushover, i can, he think he's going to be a pushover, ican, he he think he's going to be a pushover, i can, he so wants a good headline at that photo, he has some any troubles at home, and actually trump data what surprised him, by just walking away. just a saying we can't do this. i also think that mr kim jong—un probably gets a call from china saying, pretty frequently, you have got to do what we had... i mean at least they have talked. at least there are lines open command even if they get to the bottom level. at, and it's being, you know, proceeded through diplomatic means, which is it's not aggressive,... and we always have to remember that one of the reasons the berlin wall came down is because people realised how other people in the world were living, and movies and coca—cola and all the rest of it, and that has got to eventually have an influence on korea too, but it could take who knows how long. donald trump will be
10:54 pm
frustrated, because this is meant to bea frustrated, because this is meant to be a great victory for him, and he now. . . and particularly coming after michael cohen... yeah, he is going on with the tail between his legs. let's go domestic now for the front of the times. four hour waiting to be scrapped. the reasoning behind this is that hospitals see patients who has been in for three hours and 50 minutes, they know they have to meet these targets because of the negative press reports if they don't, and so it they go and treat them, and that perhaps, you know, them, and that perhaps, you know, the man that just walked in ten minutes ago who is actually in grave danger. yeah, his leg is hanging off. it's urgent care, so christ they will say that this sort of thing will cover up what's going on in hospitals. i remember labour brought descendent back in the 90s, these targets, they said there are a real danger that targets will distort the priorities, which is the point that they are making. they
10:55 pm
have often said and still say some of them, luck, but they still created a climate in which... what is interesting about this is that i was talking to a minister the other day who said, what is interesting about these hospitals, each area has its own size, believer or not, how that hospital should be dealt instead of doctors saying, it's quite interesting, some are like you where it's a new hospital in london, there is a special place you go to if you had a stroke, he bypasses anb, you go straight to another part, it's partly geography and the way you handle things that if he has got a leg falling off, you go to if he has got a leg falling off, you gotoa if he has got a leg falling off, you go to a completely different place and if you're going in because they've got a really bad, or whatever, and i think our hospital buildings and our hospital arrangements... we have to break away from that we are running out of time. very briefly to mention that
10:56 pm
wonderful photograph,... is not wonderful because mike eric markham picks him up by the lapels and eventually does pick them up... appellee they had not rehearsed that. iimagine you that. i imagine you would be a bit shocked, and andre pravin k... said aeroplane on the wrong notes. but not necessarily in the right order. i think you'll be very happy to know that's how we remember him. i think you'll be very happy to know that's how we remember himlj i think you'll be very happy to know that's how we remember him. i think he went, and that's a good bit of advice for life, isn't that? play all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers, and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you, eve and laura. they will be back at 11:30 p:m., and i will be back at 11, goodbye. hello there. it's been a very different
10:57 pm
feeling day today. a lot more cloud around and much cooler than what we've been used to, and also there's been some rain. particularly england and wales because of this weather front which moved in off the atlantic earlier. it is slowly clearing into the near continent, it's taking its rain with it. so, i think over the next few hours, we'll see some showery bursts of rain across more southeastern areas and leave a legacy of cloud across the country, some hill fog and some mist and murk. but with all the cloud blanket, it shouldn't be too chilly, in fact a bit milder than last night. temperatures of 5—9 degrees. but tomorrow starts rather cloudy, and i don't think it's going to improve that much through the day, it stays pretty grey. one or two light showers in the east. could start to see some sunshine across northern ireland into wales and the southwest of england later in the afternoon ahead of this rain band which will push into western parts of northern ireland later on. 10—13 degrees, much cooler than what we're used to, but still a little above the seasonal average. now, during friday night, that rain band spreads across the country, so the rain will be quite heavy at times. it will feel quite breezy, too. at the end of the night,
10:58 pm
again because of a lot of cloud cover, 5—8 celsius. so fairly mild. now, things turn a lot more unsettled this weekend. saturday, we see a deep area of low pressure which could bring a spell of gales, maybe even severe gales across parts of scotland. friday night's rain clearing through, this is the deep area of low pressure i was talking about moving in for saturday, but i think many places start bright once you lose friday night's rain. some sunshine around, but the winds will pick up, the cloud will increase and eventually it will turn very wet across western areas with some heavy rain, gales picking up, severe gales perhaps for western scotland, gusts of 70 mph. could see a bit of sunshine lasting into the southeast, where we could make 15 degrees. but then the wind and rain spreads through during saturday night. 0n into sunday, this next feature could bring some very wet weather to southern portions of the country through the day. this little bit of uncertainty to the northern extent of this rain. it does look like much of wales, the midlands southwards could have a bit of a soaking day. further north, it's going to be
10:59 pm
bright, breezy again, plenty of showers, some of which will be heavy, and we could see some snow over the scottish hills. and a cooler day generally across the board. then as we head on into next week, it remains cool, even cooler in fact, with a mixture of sunshine and showers.
