are the sunday times‘ education editor, sian griffiths, and the journalist and before the papers — author, shyama perera. sport and for a full round up, good morning. a leaked recording of the labour leader jeremy corbyn has been released, in which he suggests the party may have lost, mislaid or ignored evidence of anti—semitism. his comments were secretly taped by one of his fiercest critics — the labour mp, dame margaret hodge — when she met him to discuss the matter. part of the recording has been released by the sunday times. a labour spokesman said the recording showed jeremy corbyn‘s desire to rebuild trust with thejewish community. just to reassure you,

he's not going to be running the system, he's not entitled to do that. the point of him is that he will look at the speed of doing the cases, the administration and the collation of the evidence, before it is put before appropriate panels in this, because i was concerned that evidence has either been mislaid, ignored or not used and hopefully some better system. that is the recording ofjeremy corbyn. we are nowjoined by our political correspondent, jessica parker. what is the significance of these remarks and this recording?m what is the significance of these remarks and this recording? it is possible this could be read in a number of different ways. there may be people who see this as an example ofjeremy corbyn be people who see this as an example of jeremy corbyn taking be people who see this as an example ofjeremy corbyn taking a personal interest in a matter that has dogged the labour party for much of his leadership. the labour party have said this showsjeremy corbyn has my desire to make procedure is as robust as possible and rebuild trust

with the jewish robust as possible and rebuild trust with thejewish community. however, others may see it as a relatively stark and relatively recent admission that perhaps there are issues within the compliance system. interestingly, today in a letter to the sunday times, several labour mps are calling for a fully independent body to deal with complaints of racism, harassment and bullying. they claim the current compliance system is broken. meanwhile, jeremy corbyn involved in talks with the prime minister about brexit and whether they can agree a compromise deal. what is the latest? jeremy corbyn and theresa may have met twice so far in person. there have also been talks going on in the background at a senior level. today we have heard from david liddington, the de facto deputy of theresa may. he has spoken to the observer newspaper. he has said there is more

that unites the two sides that —— than divides them. he says there are similarities in terms of what they wa nt similarities in terms of what they want from the economic partnership, workers' rights. the talks will continue in good faith. there is still a lot of cynicism around westminster as to whether a deal can realistically be brokered. one of the main sticking point is the matter of customs. the labour party wa nt to matter of customs. the labour party want to see a customs union with the eu. the conservative party, the government, are not keen on that idea because they think it would limit the uk's ability to brokered trade deals. thank you. meanwhile, labour's leader in the european parliament has urged the party to back another brexit referendum, or risk haemorrhaging votes in the european elections. richard corbett says labour would lose pro—eu voters to other parties, if its manifesto doesn't guarantee a public vote on any brexit deal. labour's present policy is to keep all options on the table — including pressing for a further referendum. teachers say there's increasing evidence that poverty

is damaging the education of children in the uk. the national education union says more pupils are struggling because they come to school hungry or without a good night's sleep. sarah walton reports. overcrowding in homes so children do not have space to do homework. children attending school with no coats, no socks and without other essential items of clothing. most of my class arrive at school hungry and thirsty. some of the quotes from an online survey of more than 8,000 teachers. 91% of them said poverty was a limiting factor in children's capacity to learn. ahead of its annual conference in liverpool this week, the national education union says its members are seeing more families struggling financially. and one school in watford says it's often left to them to help. we've had situations whereby parents have had maybe an oven stop working, or a fridge stop working,

and they literally can't replace it. thankfully, we have quite a good network and find out things like that and then we're able to access from various charities, support for them, but it shouldn't be like that. the neu also says that the situation is being made worse by the education funding crisis, which means schools and colleges can do less to counter the impact of poverty. the government says tackling disadvantage will always be a priority, and it's investing in free school meals for more than a million of the most disadvantaged children. sarah walton, bbc news. a woman remains in police custody, following the death of a 10—year—old boy who was attacked by a dog in cornwall. police were called to the scene at a caravan park in looe yesterday morning. the 28—year—old woman is being questioned on suspicion of manslaughter and having a dog dangerously out of control. the animal involved was described as a bulldog—type breed.

there's been a sharp rise in the number of crimes involving dating apps and websites across england and wales. an investigation by bbc radio 5 live found that around half the reported offences were sex crimes. the online dating association says its members do all they can to protect users from harm. the programme's presenter, adrian goldberg, joins us from our salford newsroom. just talk us through these figures? good morning. we have analysed figures from 22 of the 43 police forces across england and wales who responded to a freedom of information request. they showed that in 2015 there were 329 offences reported to those forces relating to online websites or dating apps. that 329, by last year, had risen to 528 offences. an exact doubling across

those 22 police force areas. overall, half of those recorded were sexual crimes in nature. i hesitate to use the phrase tip of the iceberg but that is only half of the police forces who responded to the request. large police force areas like the metropolitan police in london didn't respond. it is reasonable to assume the realfigure of respond. it is reasonable to assume the real figure of crimes associated with dating websites and apps would be much higher. i suppose we need to put it into context. do we know how many people use these dating apps? we have been speaking to a number of industry organisations. we have got something like 10 million people across the uk who are signed up to dating sites and apps. they point out that only a tiny number of people who use those sites are predatory in any way or involved in any kind of criminal activity. nevertheless, there are victims groups and victims families who say that websites could do more. they

could introduce criminal records checks to make sure that people who sign up to sites do not have a criminal history, particularly around issues of sexual violence or domestic abuse. the websites themselves say they don't have the authority to require that. thank you very much indeed. adrian goldberg. the organisers of street protests in sudan have held meetings with senior military figures, to demand civilian rule in the country. president bashir, who led sudan for almost 30 years, the organisers of street protests in sudan have held meetings was ousted by the military three days ago. generals have promised a transition to democratic government within two years, but protesters have rejected the offer. joining us now to discuss the ongoing developments is dame rosalind marsden, associate fellow at chatham house, and the former british ambassador to sudan. thank you so much for being with us. just give us your reading of the

political situation in sudan? in africa we have heard many times generals coming to power, promising a transition to democracy, and then it never happens. yes indeed. i think we are at a very critical moment now in this political drama thatis moment now in this political drama that is playing out in sudan. as you said, the forces for freedom and change, which are a coalition of opposition parties, professionals, youth movements, are at the moment, have agreed to negotiate or to start talking to the new leader, the general who has taken over as head of the interim military council. they will be testing him to see if he is ready to agree to move swiftly toa he is ready to agree to move swiftly to a civilian government, which they would then restore freedoms, respect for human rights and prepare for free and fair elections. they don't

just want to see a change. president bashir has gone. after 30 years that was a major achievement for the protest movement. they don'tjust wa nt to protest movement. they don'tjust want to see a new general at the head of the regime. they want the regime, the whole system, to go. based on your knowledge of the country, how optimistic are you? well, i think we have seen the whole population, all segments of society, coming together over the last four months to press for change. i mean, this is really an expression of the culmination of anger that has built up culmination of anger that has built up over years, which was related to, first of all, the war in darfur for and in the mountains of the blue nile, where the marginalisation of the populations there was the root cause of the conflict. and the government has been using brutal counterinsurgency tactics. there has been pressure from the opposition

parties over a number of years for a democratic transition because of freedoms and human rights violations. and on top of that there has been a growing economic hardship. all of this has come together since december in nationwide peaceful protests. it reached its culmination last week, when hundreds of thousands of people converged on the army headquarters to try and persuade the army to side with the people, which is what happened in 1964 and 1985, when previous popular uprisings overturned autocratic governments. so after 30 years of president bashir, you are not entirely surprised that in the end he was toppled? well, i think it is a huge achievement for the courageous protesters, for people power, the force of civic resistance, that it

was possible to topple him. he had spent the last 30 years trying to prove his regime, to make sure that what happened in previous, to previous military governments, was not repeated. he had taken control of key sectors of the economy. it looked as if it was going to be incredibly difficult for the opposition and the civil society and activists to prevail. but in the end president basheer proved unable to deal with the protesters through security measures. he was unable to deal with the mounting economic crisis in sudan. and the protest movement has made great protest. bashir has gone. there is still a way to go before they reach their demands for a full civilian government. indeed. good to get your analysis. thank you so much. former

british ambassador to sudan. thank you for your time. the father of the wikileaks founderjulian assange, has called on the australian government to help his son. john shipton expressed shock at the appearance of his 47—year—old son, who was removed from london's ecuadorian embassy on thursday. he's suggested he should be brought back to his home country of australia. a number of mps and peers say he should be extradited to sweden, if the authorities there re—open an investigation into an alleged rape. how many times have you gone to work when you're not really up to it? a new study has found more than 40% of employees said their work was being affected by health problems — a figure that's risen by a third over the last five years. here's our business correspondent, emma simpson. sarah's main job these days is looking after her children.

a decade ago, she was in engineering recruitment. i was 22. it felt exciting for me to be starting my career. i absolutely loved it, it was a greatjob. but sarah ended up having a breakdown, yet still felt under pressure to get back to work. it was just quite surreal to be thinking, oh, i probably have to go to work tomorrow but i was sat in a hospital bed recovering and being told by doctors, "you're really seriously ill, you need to look after yourself. this is something you shouldn't be messing around with. you know, you'vejust tried to take your own life". when you look back on it with hindsight you see, actually, if i'd have been given a bit more time to become well before i had had a breakdown, i would have been in a better position to keep on working. if you break a leg, it's clear you need time off. having a mental illness or suffering from workplace stress can be harder to spot, but researchers found these are the biggest factors behind the growing problem of people turning up for work when they're not

well enough to do theirjobs. basically did enough to meet the minimums. you know, to get by. dale hit rock bottom when he lost his wife but his employer helped him including a fitness programme to improve his physical and mental health. overall i feel better in myself. but how more productive do you feel at work? quite a bit and i'm definitely a lot better than i was as far as my overall performance in myjob. dale works for dixons carphone. the compa ny‘s been on a journey, too. we've had to be careful about health and safety in the workplace but what we've missed is mental well—being which is just as crucial as all of the other factors as well. people with poor mental wellbeing, they aren't as productive as people who are healthier, they're less robust, they take more time off through sickness and they're less

responsive and we need to help them. we need to help our workforces. good afternoon, thanks for calling technical support. my name is dale. it's worked for dale. he's now earned his first ever full—time bonus so if other organisations really started to tackle this problem, might it help solve the uk's productivity puzzle where workers aren't nearly as efficient as they could be? absolutely. we believe the key issue to britain's productivity problem is due to presenteeism, where people are present at work but are not performing in an optimal way. sarah freelances now and is happy. she just wishes she was shown some compassion and flexibility when she needed it most. emma simpson, bbc news, colchester. the headlines on bbc news:

a leaked recording ofjeremy corbyn has revealed the labour party lost, mislaid or ignored evidence of anti—semitism in the party. teachers say there is increasing evidence that poverty is damaging the education of children in the uk. demonstrators in sudan say they won't end their protest against the country's military until their demands are met. a security guard has been shot dead in a drive—by shooting outside a nightclub in australia's second biggest city, melbourne. three other people were wounded when a gunman fired indiscriminately into a crowd standing outside the club. police say they're investigating links to a motorcycle gang that's been attempting to extort money from the business. nigeria's president, muhammadu buhari, has said he will not rest until the schoolgirls abducted by islamist militants from chibok

are reunited with their families. his statement comes on the fifth anniversary of the kidnapping by boko haram of 276 girls from their school. 66 have since escaped, over a hundred more have been freed, but 112 are still missing. a night out clubbing is something that most young people take for granted. but for disabled people, just getting past the bouncer can be a challenge. stuart devlin has cerebral palsy and has been turned away from several venues, after being accused of being drunk. he's now had an id card printed to help door staff understand his condition. bbc scotland's nine news reporter michael mcewan went to meet him. one in five scottish people have a disability. let's have a party! one of them is 37—year—old

stuart devlin. tonight he is in this club in barrhead, but not every night out is enjoyable. so, tell me about your experience by going out to a pub in glasgow? am i right in saying this is not the first pub you've been knocked back from? few more. nightclub as well. hi, dougie, how are you? not too bad. i went to meet dougie graham, who works for a charity called c—change, based in glasgow. after he was turned away from the club, stuart asked dougie for some help. can you talk us through what really happened and why he

approached c—change? when stuart spoke to me, he asked very directly that he wanted a card saying, this is the reason basically that i might appear this way. the g2 in glasgow. around 200 people attend this club monthly. it is an inclusive event where bouncers trained to tell the difference between someone who is drunk and who has a disability. on the door tonight is matthew. we spoke to him about his experience of seeing people with a disability being turned away. i've seen it happen myself with numerous companies i have worked with before. and i don't stand for that at all because

everybody is out to have a good night regardless of disabilities or whatever. from the bouncer‘s point of view, matthew thinks cards like stuart's are a positive sign. that gives us the knowledge that if anything was to happen inside, regarding a disability, we'd be able to help them out and then rememberfrom having previous conversations with them what is wrong with them, how we can help them and as fast as we can help them as well. michael mcewan, bbc news. the city of salisbury, which found itself at the centre of a major international incident following the novichok nerve agent attack, has now been named as the best place to live in britain. the annual survey by the sunday times also had york, edale, the isle of dogs and dundee in the top ten. the list looks at a number of factors, including employment, schools and broadband speeds. salisbury was only declared as decontaminated from novichok last month.

visitors to london's kew gardens will get the chance to experience a different kind of flower this spring, thanks to a new exhibition by the american artist, dale chihuly. 32 sculptures have been installed around the gardens. our reporter wendy hurrell went to take a look, and to hearfrom the man who designed them. well, i love greenhouses, you know — and how can you not love kew? it's just the most extraordinary, with some 300 acres with all these greenhouses. it is notjust under glass that you'll find all these reflections of nature. the cherry blossoms are out at kew gardens. poking up out of the grass, not only tulips, but these amazing glass sculptures. this is just one of 32 installations across the gardens that are going to be here until the end of october. it's the work of artist dale chihuly, based in seattle. thousands of these pieces of glass have been carefully shipped over here and displayed

for us all to see. sapphire star glints in the spring light. summer sun is framed by the lake and palm house. icicle tower alone is made of nearly 2000 individual pieces of hand blown glass. because of the way they're packed and put into containers, containers very rarely get jiggled around very much, so there's very little breakage. yet that doesn't always apply in the studio that dale chihuly‘s wife manages. when the artist is pushing to the very limit what class can do, are there designs that just don't work? absolutely. i've worked on things for months and then decided at the very end that it was a bad idea and had to break everything. that's a sad day. that is a sad day. it's a sad day when you have to break things you've made.

but these seemingly fragile shards are now nestled amongst the budding plants. they're just even more beautiful and stunning in the landscape that we could have ever hoped for. i've got probably have a number of favourites. but i think the niijima floats in the japanese garden, with the cherry blossom out and the colours, with the pagoda in the background. kew gardens is hoping that the success of chihuly exhibitions across the world will be replicated here once again. wendy hurrell, bbc news. can you imagine spending more than 80 hours on a seesaw? for two men from berkshire, that's exactly what they're doing this weekend. michaeljones and richard march are attempting to break a world record. they have a specially made see saw with added car seats for comfort and have installed a toilet so that they can answer their calls of nature. a plane with the world's largest ever wingspan has made its first successful flight.

the stratolaunch is designed to act as a flying launch pad for satellites. its wingspan is the length of an american football field. it was funded by the late microsoft co—founder paul allen. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. hello there. it is a familiar theme really through today. most places dry, on the chilly side as well but we are seeing more cloud around. one part of the uk that's been quite cloudy day has been the south—west of england. we've got this area of cloud stretching from the south—west, across wales and up towards northern ireland. that's not really moving very far. it's actually a weak weather front that is just stumbling into that area of high pressure, that's blocking things off and drawing in the chillier airand bringing us, earlier on at least, a lot of sunshine. but as temperatures have risen so we've seen more patchy cloud developing, that's spreading out a bit more, limiting the sunshine a bit during the afternoon. and we have still got the cloudier skies,

stronger winds for northern ireland and towards the far south—west, perhaps one or two spots of rain. the odd light shower possible around those north sea coasts, but on the whole it's a dry day. rather more cloud perhaps then we had yesterday and so temperatures struggling to around nine or ten celsius. now, the cloud that does develop will tend to decay during this evening, skies will clear in many areas. we'll keep cloudier skies for northern ireland, across parts of wales and the south—west, perhaps a little bit more rain coming in as well. there will be a touch of frost, more likely across northern england and scotland, not as widespread as recently and that's because the winds will be strengthened despite those clearing skies, temperatures shouldn't get quite as low. always some more cloud for northern ireland, parts of wales, the south—west of england, chance of a little bit more rain too and then we will see cloud coming into the eastern most parts of england and scotland, bringing some showers in off the north sea. but in between, some sunshine. but for all of us, it is going to be a windier day on monday. gales possible for northern ireland and across the south—west of england together with that risk of rain.

on the whole, those temperatures are a little bit higher than we are seeing today. now, the windy weather comes with that area of low pressure running close to the uk. that moves away and this weather front that's bringing the cloud and rain starts to push its way eastwards. again, it is getting blocked off to a certain extent by the high pressure so we're not quite sure how far east it will go. it probably won't be a great deal of rain as it leaves northern ireland, pushes into western scotland, over the irish sea into western parts of england and wales. there will be a lot of cloud around i suspect on tuesday. but those temperatures continue to just creep up by a degree or so. there is warmer weather on the way as we get more sunshine from the middle part of the week. great news if you're heading out and about in the run—up to easter.
