2:06 pm
videos. priti patel was there earlier as well. the big issue think he‘s the biggest loss to the understandably is brexit. there will team. he‘s not one of our best be numerous other things. let's talk players. but it‘s ridiculous that we to someone who might stand but we're are going to the european final and we can‘t bring our full squad not sure yet, jesse norman mp for hereford. how are you? very good. because a player doesn‘t feel safe. are you wanting to stand, throwing your hat in the ring of steel that‘s a joke. henrikh mkhitaryan is a good player. and every so often he chewing it over? i said a few days could be a game changer. they would ago i'm consulting and i will be be uproar if it was eden hazard who doing so for three or four more days couldn‘t come because he didn‘t feel at lease. it has an impact on safe. i‘m not happy. friends and family and also talking a few hours until the match, the to my constituents. i have a close relationship with my constituents atmosphere is improving. the numbers andl relationship with my constituents and i want to take the temperature of fa ns atmosphere is improving. the numbers of what they think as well. is the of fans are growing, for both sides. fundamental debate in this lots of azerbaijanis are looking leadership to be where they can forward to a top—level match in candidates are prepared to leave the their stadium here. it‘s something that the authorities want to be a eu with no deal? we have heard people say they will leave on the showcase for this country. there‘s been a huge amount of criticism but 3ist people say they will leave on the 31st of october no matter what, they showed that off. there is something parliament will block it. is that what it will come down to?|j something of a cloud hanging over this but most of the focus is think there will be a lot of that shifting towards the match and kick because the eu elections underlined off in shifting towards the match and kick offina shifting towards the match and kick off in a few hours‘ time. tell us
2:07 pm
how people on the leaves i'd feel very strongly, many conservative or more about the politics of azerbaijan as a country, and its long history with armenia. and the labour voters. i think there is also bad blood between them? well, you a question about who will lead us after that. when trying to choose a prime minister for three or four say bad blood but this is a conflict months but for three years stop longer possibly because of the real that goes back some three decades. question will come to the ideas, the for azerbaijan and armenia it‘s a very sensitive issue. the conflict characters, principles, personality, is often referred to as frozen, but the drive, personal tempo and energy a couple of years ago 100 people oi'i the drive, personal tempo and energy on previous experience. i have had a lot of previous experience and we re a couple of years ago 100 people were killed and renewed fighting. that's why i think it might be these are our that matter to both interesting to do this. the speaker countries. as far as azerbaijan is john bercow says he will be staying concerned this is 20% of its on for the foreseeable future and is territory occupied and controlled by convinced parliament will have armenians. so there is an awful another say the idea of potentially amount of hostility and bad feeling, leaving without a deal. does that mean it's out of whoever the next so amount of hostility and bad feeling, so you amount of hostility and bad feeling, so you can amount of hostility and bad feeling, so you can understand how despite the best intentions that spills over into sport. beyond that, there is prime minister's hands is? parliament will do whatever it can to stop no deal? let's not forget theissue into sport. beyond that, there is the issue of human rights. amnesty the political of geography of europe international has warned that the is changing at the moment was that we just had european parliamentary zaria authorities are trying to elections which means we will get a showcase themselves and use events
2:08 pm
new commission president. there will to whitewash what they refer to as a bea new commission president. there will be a lot of change in play by the time we come to the final details... repressive regime. there are problems here with freedom of this parliament won't change, it speech, the freedom to demonstrate, doesn't want no deal and will do there are many activists behind whatever it can to stop it? the parliament doesn't want no deal but bars. i put those things to a the labour party might change its mind when it digests the effects of minister and spokesperson for the its own hammering a few days ago. i foreign ministry, they said there think it is possible we may see change both on the parliamentary are no political prisoners in side in this country and on the azerbaijan and this is not about whitewashing an image but about political side in the eu. can you sport. there are some serious see any circumstance in which the questions that remain about baku as next conservative leader would allow another referendum ? a host venue for such an important next conservative leader would allow another referendum? in this country? i think it's highly unlikely. i picture. think the idea of having all the extra paying costs, delay of running that game kicks off at 8pm, 11pm another referendum with all the divisiveness that would come from local time and could go on till 2am that and the feeling of best of two if there are extra penalties. or three and how that will work... i people selling their homes think it would be terribly bad for are having to drop prices more steeply than at any time the country and i think every candidate will set their face against it. if you have your for four years. collea g u es against it. if you have your colleagues have been tweeting they the average difference would block another independence between asking and selling prices, referendum in scotland as well. are now stands at £8,500. you on the same page?” here‘s simon gompertz. so it‘s the third one right up there.
2:09 pm
referendum in scotland as well. are you on the same page? i think if a one, two, three, the black door. referendum in scotland is put it's in london where house highly likely to be of interest to prices have been falling, the discounts are big. matt has just negotiated £50,000 the next prime minister because they off, nearly 10% down just had one. the general principle from the original asking price. as you get one of these once a generation first it's to a strategic it‘s a duplex, it‘s a two bedroom, chance to think through where the 75 square metres, fully renovated. country or region might be going and chain free, no one‘s that's how they get handled. the lived there since the renovations have been done. idea of holding another one immediately i think would be not the price coming down, what difference did that make for you? well, i mean, it meant that i could buy the flat. it was at a price point good. it hasjust started raining that i could afford, i had the money for a down payment here at westminster heavily, wt and and i would be able a deluge of candidates. to get a mortgage. it never rains but it pours! thank the average gap between asking and selling prices stands at nearly 4% across britain. you very much indeed. get some shelter. so narrower than matt‘s in pricey there's more evidence of the stark financial pressures london but up from 3.3% last year facing english councils, and the devastating effect on care services. and a recent low of 2.7% new figures suggest 11 local authorities could run out of cash halfway through 2016. reserves in four years, so a price drop could make with the local government all the difference. association saying councils face it could mean you can afford to buy. systemic underfunding. but for many, the house price boom ministers insist they've put more was so big it means that even money into social care,
2:10 pm
with a small drop in prices, but the health foundation says they‘re still way out of reach. the average spend in england and there‘s a stand—off between buyers expecting something is much less per head, cheaper and many potential sellers than in wales and scotland. not bothering unless 0ur social affairs correspondent, alison holt has been examining they absolutely have the care system for the bbc‘s to put their homes on the market. panorama programme. i don't like it. it‘s really important to find the home you want to buy, that's all right, i'll come i mean the home that want to live with you and i'll help you. in, not looking for a good deal. rachel and her mother barbara and you‘ve got to remember that are at the sharp end actually sellers are being a bit of the financial pressures local nervous at the moment and they‘re authorities are facing. not putting houses on the market where are you? i'm only here. so there might be fewer we're going to go this way now. homes to choose from. all right? house sales are still brisk in some parts of the country, i don't want to be here. but for people like matt, being able to argue the price down barbara has severe dementia can make the difference between getting the home you went and their county council, somerset, and seeing it slip away. closed the dementia day centre simon gompertz, bbc news. they relied on, as it tried to balance its books. eight years after the meltdown at the fukushima nuclear plant the authority offered alternatives, injapan, people are finally but for rachel, this was vital being allowed to return support that worked. to their homes. wash your hair, ready for tomorrow. i'm desperate. they left when a huge and i'm not the only one. tsunami struck the area. just under half the land in(map) the small town of 0kuma has now been cleaned up. you know, our lifeline has been cut. so, are people actually now taking

2:13 pm
this is a hotspot, and you can see we spent about £345 per person on it is because water has gathered here, and the water tends to, social care. 0ver we spent about £345 per person on social care. over the last six yea rs, when it washes down from the hills, social care. over the last six years, the amount we spend in it tends to bring a lot england has fallen. so we are now of radiation with it. you can see just this local area spending less per person, while he has a particularly high reading. snead has increased. in scotland, we this is the first time i have been see they are actually spending 43% back here in the exclusion zone around the power plant in about 3.5 more than we are in england, per years, but it doesn‘t get any less strange. person, on social care. and we radiation levels, we have taken weren't spending a lot in the first measurements, they are much higher place compared to need and the than outside the exclusion zone, around ten to 15 times higher. amount we are spending has fallen whether the levels here are a danger when mead has increased. the reasons to human health is open to debate. are cuts? local authorities have some scientists say you could quite borne a big brunt of the cuts safely live here without much following the economic crisis of 2008, social care is funded mainly by local government and central for the foreseeable future. government reduced the amount it was there are no plans to clean it up, no plans providing in those early years. it for people to move back here. started to switch a bit of nhs money

chelsea. it sounds like a good atmosphere, there's been no serious marcus ball, a businessman tension except for some bits and here on the right, is behind bobs with the police, mainly with the legal challenge, a private prosecution financed by an online crowdfunding campaign. arsenal fans. there is one issue that your midfielder is an armenian, captain of the national side, and he hasn‘t in previous hearings, his lawyers have claimed borisjohnson repeatedly lied come to azerbaijan because he won‘t and misled the british be safe here. how do you feel about public about the cost of membership of the eu. coming here without him? good morning, good morning, good morning. mrjohnson‘s representatives have i'm not going to lie, personally i don't think he's the biggest loss. suggested the case is a stunt aimed at undermining he is not one of our best players. the referendum result. his lawyers say he denies but it's ridiculous that we are going to a european final, and we can't bring our full squad because a acting improperly or player doesn't feel safe. that's a joke. he is a good player, and every dishonestly at any time. today, a districtjudge so joke. he is a good player, and every ruled she was satisfied so often he could be a game changer. that there is prima facie evidence of an issue being determined at they would have been absolute uproar trial, but stressed the allegations against borisjohnson are unproven. if eden hazard couldn't come because he will now have to attend he didn't feel safe to come. a preliminary hearing, before the case is sent i‘m not happy. a few hours until the to crown court for trial. as the frontrunner in the contest match, the atmosphere is improving to become the next prime minister, this case will be an unwelcome and fans are going. both sides. lots distraction for boris johnson, and may be used by his
2:41 pm
of locals are looking forward to a opponents against him. jonathan blake, bbc top—level match in their local news, westminster. stadium. it‘s something that the authorities want to be a showcase 0ur political correspondent for the country. there has been a huge amount of criticism which they nick eardley is in westminster. have shrugged off but there is something of a cloud hanging over i think there has been a response this. in most of the focus now is from the boris johnson shifting towards the match in just a i think there has been a response from the borisjohnson team, is that right? yes, we had heard from a few hours. tell us a bit more about the source close to borisjohnson in the last hour saying this prosecution is politics of azerbaijan, as a nothing less than a politically country, but also, its long history motivated attempt to reverse brexit with armenia. and the bad blood and crush the will of the people, between two countries. saying the decision to summon boris johnson is extraordinary, it runs use a bad blood, this is a conflict that goes back some three decades. counter to centuries of british political tradition and risks for azerbaijan and armenia it‘s a undermining our democracy. to be very real and sensitive issue. the honest, i think team boris would conflict is often referred to as rather be talking about something frozen, but a couple of years ago else at the moment. they are, mr some 100 people were killed in johnson that is, is the frontrunner renewed fighting. these are to become the next prime minister. facilities that matter to both if you speak to most people around here, they think he is the one most countries. as far as azerbaijan is concerned this is 20% of its likely at the moment to win that territory operated and controlled by conservative leadership race. let‘s
2:42 pm
armenians. there is an awful amount remind ourselves exactly what this of hostility and bad feeling, so you case is about. it is about the claim can understand how despite the best made during the referendum by intentions that spills over into sport. beyond that, there is the numerous people on the vote to leave side that £350 million a week was issue of human rights. amnesty international, for example, warned going from the uk to brussels. it is not contested that that claim was that the authorities in azerbaijan are trying to use this event to made, but the accusation that‘s been made, but the accusation that‘s been whitewash what they refer to as made in court is that the claim was misleading and that in making it, mr repressive regimes. there are problems with freedom of speech, the johnson was guilty of misconduct in freedom to demonstrate, and there public office. are many activists, opposition as you have heard in that response activists behind bars. i put those from sources close to mrjohnson, things to a minister here, a thatis from sources close to mrjohnson, that is completely denied. they think this case is a stunt and they spokesman for the foreign ministry, and they said there are no political don‘t think it should go ahead. but prisoners in azerbaijan, this is not for a don‘t think it should go ahead. but about whitewashing the image but fora man don‘t think it should go ahead. but for a man who is getting ready to launch a pretty intense bid to about whitewashing the image but about sport. there are some serious questions that remain about baku as become prime minister, i suspect this is a distraction he would a host for such an important rather not have. all right, thank you. nick eardley fixture. it has been hugely for at westminster. controversial, thank you, sarah. footage of the london bridge attackers, preparing in the days
2:43 pm
and hours before they killed eight people, have been played at the inquests into those who died. legislation that could pave the way for a second scottish independence referendum the court was shown images ——if the westminster government allows it —— of rachid redouane buying a pink has been published at holyrood. ceramic kitchen knive from a shop first minister nicola sturgeon said the bill would give people north of the border, what she called, the "opportunity in east london, which was used to choose a better future". 0ur scotland correspondent lorna in the attacks two years ago. gordon sent this update. richard lister is at the old bailey for us this afternoon. the snp, certainly, had a bit of a jazz bring as up—to—date with what bounce in the european elections, in the court has been told today. a very pro—europe message, they gained three of the six seats the court has just finished seeing about two hours of footage which available, whether that was strong, showed most of the events of the day of the attack itself, so a number of entirely strong indicators of pro independence, order others lending cameras filming, cctv cameras, bus their vote to the snp because of cameras filming, cctv cameras, bus cameras and other cameras around their vote to the snp because of their stance on europe is not london which was trawled to find entirely clear. but it, certainly images of the three attackers as they went about their day leading up to the attack on the 3rd ofjune in given their supporters momentum in the evening. it also showed some key the arguments over whether scotland moments in the days and weeks leading up to the attack itself is should be an independent country. not as you said, some of the first today we see the publishing of this footage shown today was of rachid
2:44 pm
bill, the referendum of scotland bill, which sets out the legal redouanein footage shown today was of rachid redouane in a lidl supermarket. he framework for any, and all, entered the supermarket in east ham and it was there to buy 12 inch referendums are matters in scotland because michael control. of course, ceramic kitchen knives that were used in the attack. he selects the a referendum on scottish knives and takes them to a independence is not within the scottish government ‘s go control at self—service checkout and he actually has to be helped by a the moment. they would need what‘s member of staff to purchase those called a section 30 order to be knives, presumably because there was granted by westminster. and an age restriction which has to be ove rco m e an age restriction which has to be overcome on the terminal before he is allowed to make the purchase. scotland‘s of first minister, nicola very clear purchase from that lidl. sturgeon, says it would be a democratic outrage if a section 30 similar footage very clear purchase from that lidl. similarfootage to this very clear purchase from that lidl. similar footage to this shown in court also which came from rachid wasn‘t granted. redouanein court also which came from rachid redouane in that same lidl about two if, and when, we reach the weeks later when he was buying wine westminster government and the scottish government can‘t agree and bottles. bottles of wine on those i will set out my intentions. there bottles. bottles of wine on those bottles were found in the van on the isa i will set out my intentions. there is a point of principle here, it is night of the attack, some 13 bottles, which had been converted legitimate for the westminster government, and anybody else for into petrol bombs and although they that matter, to oppose independence. we re into petrol bombs and although they were never set off, we heard during it would be a democratic outrage, the inquest proceedings today that particularly given my mandate as they were viable bombs and could have caused serious harm. another first minister, 40 westminster piece of video that was released and government to seek to stand on the way of the people of scotland having shown in court today was of the the right to choose. that is a three men one evening just a just a
2:45 pm
com pletely the right to choose. that is a completely different proposition and i think democratically unsustainable. few days before the three of them this bill will, it‘s thought, used. you can see that black meeting outside the gym that the three of com plete this bill will, it‘s thought, complete its passage here by the end them used. you can see that black and white image, it isjust behind of the year, and if a section 30 the gym. , it isjust behind order were to be granted they would and white image, it isjust behind the gym. , it is just behind the gym. throws it into a pile of still need secondary legislation to rubbish next to the gym door. their men go off walking and it is assumed set their date for any referendum on they are talking about what they are going to do in a few days‘ time. the scottish independence and the question, in any referendum on assumption is that rachid redouane put that phone in that pile of rubbish because he was concerned it scottish independence would need could have been used to monitor him, secondary legislation. but because this bill were to pass it could because when he comes back with the other two, he retrieves the phone happen within a timely fashion. again before they continue on their there has already been a strong way. we also saw evidence disposes response from opposition groupings ofa here in scotland, they are calling way. we also saw evidence disposes of a phone, it seems, throws into a pile of rubbish next to the gym door. the men go off walking and it this an obsession on the part of the is assumed they are talking about what they are going to do in a few snp. they say nicola sturgeon is days‘ time. the assumption is that rachid redouane put that phone in pandering to her party, and her that pile of rubbish because he was actions are reckless and concerned it could have been used to monitor him, because when he comes back with the other two, he irresponsible. that was our scotland retrieves the phone again before they continue on their way. we also saw evidence today khuram butt tried correspondent. now clive is here to rent a much longer truck than was

precedent and warned it will harm to charge president trump. billions of consumers he‘s been speaking publicly for the first time about the investigation into russia interference in the 2016 real madrid has overtaken presidential election. manchester united as the most new analysis shows far less valuable european football club. is being spent on social care per head in england than in wales and scotland. a study of club‘s enterprise value by kpmg estimates its worth around 6000 chelsea and arsenal at £2.91 billion pounds. supporters are in baku but others the valuation is based profitability are staying away from the europa as well as popularity along league final in azerbaijan. with broadcasting rights, sporting potential england‘s cricketers go through and stadium value. preparations for their opener in the wh smith has been ranked the uk‘s world cup against south africa. no worst high street retailer shocks in the french open today. for the second year in a row, last year‘s women‘s runner—up is according to a which survey. the poll, which covered 100 retailers, rated the chain "very poor" for value for money through with a straight sets win. and in—store experience. more on those stories at half past. in contrast richer sounds and john lewis were at the top of the table. join me then. let‘s return to that statement from robert mueller in the past half hour. so, huawei are fighting back? talking about his investigation into
2:48 pm
yes, asking a us court to speed up alleged russian interference in the the legal process surrounding one of 2016 us presidential election. a whole string of assaults of the us let‘s speak now to our correspondent government is trying to make against in washington gary 0‘donoghue. them, and a warning today from the first time he has spoken about huawei, the chinese telecoms his report but we had his long manufacturer is that this is harming report, did we learn anything new from what he said a few moments ago? americanjobs. now manufacturer is that this is harming american jobs. now come a manufacturer is that this is harming americanjobs. now come a bit manufacturer is that this is harming american jobs. now come a bit of a you are right, this was a watershed history lesson here. it is a telecoms manufacturer, they moment. this man had been completely catapulted to the news agenda quiet for the last two years, not because it is owned by the chinese, saying a word publicly and now, when there are allegations that it is the work is over, he came out and deeply intertwined with the chinese essentially reiterated his government. it is a world leader conclusions, namely that there was when it comes to the roll—out of 5g, no collusion that they could find the next generation of mobile phone between the trump campaign and technology. the us claims that it is russia, although there were significant efforts by the russians a vehicle for chinese spying. to interfere with the political something it denies. today we heard process for the benefit of one from the chief legal officer talking candidate, and that candidate being about the consequences for consumers donald trump. 0n the second part of everywhere if this continues. we his investigation, the obstruction of justice, his investigation, the obstruction ofjustice, again he said in the believe this sets a dangerous original report that he couldn‘t come to a conclusion. he made a very precedent. today is telecom and specific point today of setting that
2:49 pm
out again. he said, if we had had huawei, tomorrow it could be your confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we industry, your company, your would have said so. consumers. the judicial system is so, if they could have been sure the the last line of defence for president didn‘t obstructjustice, they would have said so. he then justice. joining us from the new went on to set out some of the department ofjustice‘s rules and york stock exchange is our north some of the precedents which said america business correspondent. charging the president with a crime was not an option we could consider. welcome, samir f. huawei want a quicker end to these legal soi was not an option we could consider. so i think he is trying to reiterate restrictions, how does this actually go any faster? it possibly can, the and to reinforce that second part, that second part of the investigation, which is the one that judge would have to say, look, you democrats are most interested in, don't need to go through the process given what donald trump has said of discovery. that's the process by about himself being totally exonerated on all counts. which the white house, or representatives from the white house yes, it is tricky, isn‘t it? donald would be digging for new trump claims he‘s been absolutely information. they can sort of get exonerated but that is less than away from that, then they could wholehearted when robert mueller speed up the process, ultimately, said if we had confident the that would be the best outcome for president did not commit a crime, we would have said so. a bit like a huawei. they believe that this is double negative.
2:50 pm
not something that the us government absolutely. it‘s a bit round the is actually able to prove, they houses but what it is saying is we are not sure if he did or not but if could dispel this very quickly. we we are sure he didn‘t, we would have heard from the chief legal officer, said so. the other thing, of course, suggesting that this is the industry and we‘ve had this, is the that will suffer given the difficulty of legal precedents and if you can charge a sitting limitations on huawei. 0ver president. that seems to be that will suffer given the limitations on huawei. over here, something the department ofjustice you‘ve got a lot of phone providers doesn‘t seem to think you can do. saying they do need huawei to roll bearin doesn‘t seem to think you can do. bear in mind another thing robert mueller said in the statement is, i have nothing more to add than is in this out, quickly, what are they saying where you are? are they my report. this is reflected in the toeing the line, or do they have ongoing battle between the their own voice? the us government, department ofjustice, the special counsel‘s office and democrats in congress, who want him to come and specifically the president, really wa nt to specifically the president, really want to see domestic telecom appear before their committees, to companies to be able to put out this be questioned in public or in private or a bit of both. those kind of technology. but how come negotiations have been going on for companies here are very far away weeks and weeks and they have got from being able to implement any nowhere, really. he hasn‘t had a subpoena issued against him yet but kind of 5g technology, and it will thatis subpoena issued against him yet but that is still a possibility that is be several years before they are on the table. but he is saying here, able to do that. so from the evenif on the table. but he is saying here, even if i do end up there, i have no company‘s point of view, it really more to say and i will add no more than i had said in the report. is huawei with that is in a position
2:51 pm
to be able to fulfil that demand. he also made it clear today that not is huawei with that is in a position to be able to fulfil that demandm is also viewed as another chapter, only was his office winding up but he was resigning from the department another element of the ongoing trade ofjustice he was resigning from the department of justice and he was resigning from the department ofjustice and heading back to spat that there is between china and private life. not entirely surprising given that two years he‘s the us. more on that today, we heard had. heading for a quiet life. from donald trump‘s point of view, is that an editorial in the people‘s this effectively all over? has he daily newspaper warned the us that it could limit to supplies of the ridden out storm? there are no so—called rare earths. what‘s all bombshell is a mess. this had the this about chris mack and why has it potential, when you see robert mueller is about to do a statement put a it is and he had said nothing for the last two years and he had said nothing for the last two yea rs in and he had said nothing for the last this about chris mack and why has it puta it is a this about chris mack and why has it put a it is a central component of two years in public, you think my all things technology. goodness me... but we are told the white house was informed last night it is really are very crucial. if about it. i think if they were worried about the content, then you would have seen some early kind of you look at the us trade deficit with china, where on they are deeply defence getting in there before he even stood up. but they clearly important for any kind of weren‘t. i think they will say that technology. and china really this simply underlines what they have been saying all along. dominates the market. it holds 40% democrats, of course, will say there is still this open question about
2:52 pm
of these, it has put 78% of it obstruction of justice, is still this open question about obstruction ofjustice, we need to know more, we need to see the underlying evidence. but i think the worldwide. if they are going to white house will certainly feel that start limiting it, or saying, worldwide. if they are going to they are out of the woods on this. start limiting it, orsaying, look, this is dealt with domestic demand bearin they are out of the woods on this. bear in mind, the bottom line when first. that could really encourage it comes to the election and things technology companies here in the like that next year, is, and we saw usa. so as it has been pointed out this in the midterms, voters don‘t this is another escalation of the really care much about the russia thing. gary, thank you so much. trade war between the usa and china. thank you. let‘s have a look at how there‘s more evidence thatis of the stark financial pressures thank you. let‘s have a look at how facing english councils, and the devastating that is weighing up on the market. effect on care services. as you can see here the ftse is new figures suggest 11 local authorities could run out of cash down. it is weighing on the oil reserves in four years, with the local government association saying councils face price too. that‘s having an effect systemic underfunding. on energy stocks. another interesting story today, british ministers insist they‘ve put more money into social care, american tobacco is down by 4%. we but the health foundation says the average spend in england are smoking less so cigarette sales are smoking less so cigarette sales is much less per head, than in wales and scotland. 0ur social affairs correspondent, alison holt has been examining are down. the care system for the bbc‘s panorama programme.

i don‘t like it. (pres)people selling their homes are having to drop prices more steeply than at any time that's all right, i'll come for four years. the average difference with you and i'll help you. between asking and selling prices, rachel and her mother barbara now stands at £8,500. are at the sharp end of the financial pressures local authorities are facing. so it‘s the third one right up there. where are you? one, two, three, the black door. i'm only here. we're going to go this way now. in london where house prices have been falling, all right? the discounts are big. i don‘t want to be here. matt has just negotiated £50,000 barbara has severe dementia and their county council, somerset, off, nearly 10% down closed the dementia day centre they relied on, as it tried from the original asking price. it‘s a duplex, it‘s a two bedroom, to balance its books. the authority offered alternatives, 75 square metres, fully renovated. chain free, no one‘s but for rachel, this was vital lived there since the renovations have been done. support that worked. the price coming down, what difference did that make for you? wash your hair, ready for tomorrow. well, i mean, it meant that i could buy the flat. i'm desperate. it was at a price point and i'm not the only one. that i could afford, i had the money for a down payment you know, lifelines are being cut. and i would be able to get a mortgage. you just think, if they don't listen to our pleas, how is the future going to evolve? the average gap between asking and selling prices stands at nearly 4% across britain. over the ten months we followed somerset county council, it had to make £13 million of cuts so narrower than matt‘s in pricey or go bust. london but up from 3.3% last year and a recent low of 2.7% it meant painful decisions

before the case is sent renovated. no one has lived there to crown court for trial. since renovations have been done. as the frontrunner in the contest to become the next prime minister, this case will be an unwelcome distraction for boris johnson and may be used by his opponents against him. jonathan blake, bbc news. the price coming down, what difference did that make for you? 0ur political correspondent well, i mean, it meant that i could buy the flat. it was at a price point nick eardley is in westminster. that i could afford, i had the money for a down payment we are in the middle of this and i would be able to get a mortgage. conservative party leadership race. the average gap between asking and selling prices stands what are the political implications at nearly 4% across britain. of all of this? i think it's fair to so narrower than matt‘s in pricey say it is terrible timing for boris london but up from 3.3% last year johnson. most people around here in and a recent low of 2.7% westminster accept he is the halfway through 2016. frontrunner not just to so a price drop could make all the difference. westminster accept he is the frontrunner notjust to be the next leader of the conservative party, it could mean you can afford to buy. but for many, the house price boom but ina leader of the conservative party, but in a few weeks‘ time to be prime was so big it means that even minister. so at the very least, this with a small drop in prices, they‘re still way out of reach. case is an unwelcome distraction is a stub let‘s just remind ourselves and there‘s a stand—off between buyers expecting something exactly what is at the heart of it. cheaper and many potential sellers go back to the vote to leave not bothering unless they absolutely have campaign in 2016 and the claim made to put their homes on the market. by borisjohnson campaign in 2016 and the claim made by boris johnson and it‘s really important to find campaign in 2016 and the claim made by borisjohnson and various others that we were sending £350 million a the home you want to buy, i mean the home that want to live in, not looking for a good deal. week to brussels. what has not been
3:05 pm
and you‘ve got to remember that contested is that claim was made, actually sellers are being a bit nervous at the moment and they‘re but the issue that will have to be not putting houses on the market decided potentially in court is so there might be fewer homes to choose from. whether that amounted to a misuse of house sales are still brisk in some parts of the country, but for people like matt, being able to argue the price down can make the difference that figure and essentially if it went so far as to be misconduct in between getting the home you went and seeing it slip away. simon gompertz, bbc news. public office. borisjohnson‘s team say this case is a stunt and it is being used for political purposes at a time when borisjohnson would much rather be focused on putting together his case to be the next now on afternoon live — let‘s go nationwide — prime minister. i suspect this won‘t and see what‘s happening around the country,in our daily visit be welcome. thank you very much to the bbc newsrooms around the uk. indeed. 0ur political correspondent nick eardley. leanne lawless from south east today, will be telling us about a large increase in reports of forced marriage to kent police. i‘m joined now by our home affairs correspondent, tom symonds. and beccy barr is in the north west, what happens next? someone in high where two elected mayors are calling for the government to take control profile ends up in a magistrates‘ court answering a criminal charge. of northern rail. in this case, that is how the legal
3:06 pm
leanne, you‘ve been looking into reports of forced marriage process works in these situations. increasing in the south east — he has received a summons so effectively he has been charged. the what can you tell us? districtjudge has no alternative but to pass that case to a crown they have doubled in the last three court because the charges something that has to be heard in front of a yea rs ? they have doubled in the last three years? that‘s right. they have doubled in the last three years? that's right. essentially, since forced marriage became a jury. what is the charge? misconduct specific criminal offence in 2014 in public office, which is a pretty there has been more awareness around broad term. it has to be proven that this issue, which charities and please tell me has essentially given the person who broke the law was a more confidence to victims to come public official, that they were in a public official, that they were in a publicjob at public official, that they were in a forward and report it to police. public job at the public official, that they were in a publicjob at the time, that they nationally we know that there‘s been we re publicjob at the time, that they were wilfully neglecting their duties and abused the trust we have a 53% increase in reports of honour in our public officials and that —based abuse to police, that‘s there was no other explanation or justification for doing that. the across the country since 2014. while there is been a sore in the number interesting thing about this, and of reports they has been a drop in senior criminal lawyers i have spoken to this morning are quite the number of cases being flagged to surprised to find the judge, the number of cases being flagged to the crown prosecution service. that districtjudge, saying there is a case to answer. they say it may have something to do with the fact that is dropped by 43% since 2014. we‘ve something to do with the fact that some of these claims made by mr johnson whilst he was mayor of only seen for criminal convictions london and they say he may have to date. that‘s what charities say
3:07 pm
signed documents in that position, is worrying, the gap in the number of reports and the drop in the documents in court suggested prosecutions. they say it sends out that was the case. that may be where a message to victims that it‘s not theissue that was the case. that may be where the issue lies was he in a public being taken seriously, and a message position or simply politically to perpetrators that they won‘t be campaigning? if he was simply prosecuted. as part of this report i politically campaigning, we‘ll have a right to freedom of speech. that spoke to a lady called aisha who will be one of the key issues in asked us to protect her identity. this case. so how likely is this to she was forced into marriage aged go to trial, when it definitely go 18, and taken to pakistan where she to trial? there is another was forced to marry her cousin. complication, this is a private prosecution. to bring a private all of these decisions were being prosecution, you don‘t have to speak made, and! all of these decisions were being made, and i didn‘t feel like i had to the police or crown prosecution the opportunity to say that i didn‘t service, anyone can bring one. but wa nt to the opportunity to say that i didn‘t the cps has the right to step in and want to go ahead with it. on the wedding night, all of a sudden, i say, look, we will have a look at this, is this right, should we just thought, now what? you know? continue or should it stop? if the cps decides to call a halt, that is and i said to my husband, would you mind if we, you know, talk to each what happens. again, senior lawyers say they don‘t think that is likely to happen in this case because the other, got to know each other. i districtjudge at the magistrates‘ court has said there is a case to haven‘t really spoken to you. and he answer. they also say it is a very just kind of smirked and then raped
3:08 pm
politically challenging decision to me. so i gather the government is ta ke politically challenging decision to take for the crown prosecution service and when they would probably rather leave to a judge. so if it considering a change in the law on does go to the crown court, i think this, so that people would be we are likely to see months of legal obliged to report cases of forced arguments to try and get the case marriage if they come across them? stopped before a jury is sworn in and we see potentially the leader of yes, that‘s right. the home office had finished a consultation where the conservative party and prime minister facing they‘ve been speaking to front—line the conservative party and prime ministerfacing a trial the conservative party and prime minister facing a trial but that could be a long way away. thank you professionals, people in education, health care and social care. they‘ve been asking if they think they very much indeed. there‘s more evidence should be legally required to report of the stark financial pressures forced marriage if the victim comes facing english councils, and the devastating effect on care services. forward and discloses that new figures suggest 11 local information. the government‘s authorities could run out of cash reserves in four years, with the local government position is very much that association saying councils face systemic underfunding. ministers insist they‘ve put more ultimately, these professionals may money into social care, just have one and only chance to but the health foundation says the average spend in england is much less per head, speak out, and to save a potential than in wales and scotland. 0ur social affairs correspondent, victim. the government says there is alison holt has been examining still a large difference between the the care system for the bbc‘s prevalence of forced marriage, and panorama programme. the reporting of forced marriage. they think the change could go some i don‘t like it. way to helping that. we expect the consultation result in the next few that's all right, i'll come

3:12 pm
traces fairly completely the upgrade the tracks. this is what one movements of the three attackers on the day of the attack and also some expert told us. if anybody has came in to take over of the key moments in the run—up to they would face the same problems. the attack when they were making trains can't be built any more preparations for it. the first of quickly and we can't find room on the footage that we saw in court was the network because a different name on the on the dole. the industrial rachid redouane entering a lidl in relations problems that need solving east town, not far from where he would carry on being discussed. to lived and selecting a number of change the name does nothing. it is thejob ceramic kitchen knives, 12 inch pink change the name does nothing. it is the job of the mayors to kitchen knives, which he takes to a represent the anger that many people in this part of the world felt self—service checkout to purchase. a because of that chaos. the question shop assistant has to come over and is, would it make any difference if help him with that purchase, anybody else took over the service, presumably because there is an age and to according to some experts, verification requirement. so we see not necessarily. much more on that that assistant helping rachid redouane by the knives that were used on the night of the attack. we on bbc north west tonight. 0ur thanks to becky and also to leanne also saw footage from a couple of in the south—east. weeks later in the same lidl, rachid redouane buying a series of wine bottles, bottle is later found redouane buying a series of wine bottles, bottle is laterfound in the van on the night of the attack converted into petrol bombs that if you would like to see more on any tha nkfully converted into petrol bombs that thankfully never used. we saw also of those stories you can access them that three men together a few nights via the bbc iplayer. a reminder that
