labour in government introduced imprisonment for public protection, indefinite sentences specifically designed to keep highly dangerous people like sudesh amman locked up. but then in 2012, a conservative prime minister got rid of them sentences after warnings the prison system didn't have the resources to cope. judges haven't got the powers to give the right sentences for those convicted of terror offenses. they are not being reformed in prison, they are being radicalised are made worse and then released on the streets of london. some argue keeping a person injail with no defined release date goes against the principles of fairjustice. in many countries, including the us, indefinite imprisonment for anything but the most serious of crimes, is considered a breach of rights. there

will be for some whose ideology is bullet—proof and there is no way we can get inside that. if there are you are watching bbc news, our latest headlines. the government people determined not to accept any intervention that will change that says it will introduce emergency toxic mindset, yes they should be in legislation over the early release prison and if necessary, of terror offenders after an attack indefinitely. we have been over this on shoppers in south london by ground before, searching for a way to balance the rights of the public 20—year—old sudesh amman. the man was shot dead at the scene by armed to balance the rights of the public to be kept safe against the human rights of those dealt with by the police and was only recently freed courts. the government may find even from prison after serving half of today's proposals will come under his sentence for terrorism offences. legal challenge. exactly what happened during yesterday's attack in streatham has become clearer. the demands that the government response immediately and it began at four minutes to two yesterday afternoon, when sudesh amman grabbed a knife from a shop on the high street. two minutes later, he stabbed his first victim outside the white lion pub. seconds later, he stabbed another person outside cash converters. within two minutes, police shot amman dead on the high street. and four minutes after the victims were stabbed, medics arrived on the scene. today, the police have been searching a hostel where amman had been staying. here's our special

correspondent lucy manning. this unfortunately is not the first time. the high street, forensic teams, police investigating an attack, a former prisoner using his freedom to try and kill. yesterday, it was streatham. plainclothed officers, drones guns, have shot a man after he steals a knife and start stabbing others. they have had sudesh amman under surveillance, so more officers quickly arrive, one on a motorbike. 0ne more officers quickly arrive, one on a motorbike. one of the armed officers approaches him as he lies on the ground wearing a fake suicide vest. get back, they shout. a surveillance officer uses his armed collea g u es surveillance officer uses his armed colleagues for cover. they start to

clear the street. people rush to help the injured, blood on the pavement. start moving backwards, very quickly please. a man and a woman was stabbed, both are recovering. a shopkeeper was running out and shouting he had stolen something. then it happened really quickly, lots of people running and then we heard three bangs.|j quickly, lots of people running and then we heard three bangs. i heard two shots. i noticed the policemen had guns on them. the third police officer was next to his side and then fired one more shot and that is when the guy dropped on the floor. when he dropped, he was trying to move his hand to reach out for something. when i looked closely at was something strapped to his chest, like a silver canister. i saw a trail of blood that was leading to a middle—aged man who was on the floor bleeding. i knew that i had got a blanket in my bag. i pulled it out

and we use that to stem the bleeding. and all i could think was, he is going to die in the middle of the streets. sudesh amman had only been released from prison ten days ago, automatically let out halfway through his three—year sentence for terrorism offenses. he pledged allegiance to islamic state and had manuals about knife attacks. amman lived at this bail hostel around a mile from the attack. because he was under active counterterror surveillance, the authorities thought he was possibly one of the most dangerous people in the country, so why was he living behind these gates, rather than behind bars? 0fficers searched the hostel, removing evidence. the police stopped this attack but how will the politicians prevent it? new emergency laws. de—radicalising people is a very, very difficult thing to do. there is a big

psychological barrier that people find it hard to get back over. and that's why i stress the importance of the custodial option. and that is why i have come to the end of my patience with the idea of automatic early release. they are let out of prison, but the public is not out of danger. the waterjets have been out, cleaning the blood off the pavement behind me. the government has acted just as quickly, realising there is little point spending resources tracking down terror suspects, imprisoning them if they are just to come outjust as radical. this new legislation is controversial, it is retrospective and applies to those already in prison sentenced under different laws. there are those who are saying, what is the point of keeping the suspects in prison for an even longer time, because in prison they could become more radical. the emphasis should be on

de—radicalisation and rehabilitation. there are now nearly 17,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus in the world — the vast majority in china where the disease emerged late last year. there is growing concern that the authorities there are struggling with the scale of the outbreak — despite a huge push towards building new hospitals in record time. 0utside china, the world health organization says coronavirus has spread to more than 20 countries — the majority of nations registering just a handful of confirmed infections so far. from hong kong, rupert wingfield hayes sent this report. in a wuhan hospital, a group of nurses and patients are singing a famous patriotic anthem. "my motherland and i", they sing, "are never apart." the propaganda message is not difficult to understand. in china's state media, the focus now is on the fight to beat the virus. hundreds of military doctors and nurses have been arriving

in wuhan to join the battle. "when our country is in difficulty", this female soldier says, "it is our duty to be on the front line." china's logistical capabilities are beyond dispute. which other country could complete a 1000 bed hospital in less than two weeks? today, that is exactly what happened as the first patients arrived. but there is an ugly side to this all—out fight against the virus. the man on the ground has been caught without a face mask. "why don't you wear one?" shouts the policeman. "spray him with disinfectant." in another video posted on social media, a whole family is being forcibly removed from their home to a waiting ambulance. there are now many videos like this. of police locking suspected carriers in their homes. "do you have enough rice?"

the policeman asks. "0k, we are locking the door." here, the police are warning a resident who has posted something about the virus on social media. "sharing any information about the virus is illegal", he tells her. scenes like those now can be found right across social media and they are really fuelling the sense of anxiety and fear about the coronavirus that is spreading right around the world. but nowhere more so than here in hong kong. people here simply do not believe they are getting a realistic picture of what is happening in wuhan and central china. hong kong's chief executive today ordered more border crossings closed but said that some must remain open. there were, indeed, more hong kong people crossing the border almost on a daily basis and then they have to come back. that was not good enough for these hospital workers, who have now voted to strike until the border is shut. but experts say shutting borders now is already far too late. because of the efficiency

of that rail network and train network and so on, it would already have spread across, beyond hubei province, ithink. so you, actually, it's not just about reaction, it's also about prevention. fear is even more contagious than the virus. this was the centre of shanghai today. china's biggest city and economic heart. when the bill comes in for this, it is going to be huge. rupert wingfield—hayes, bbc news in hong kong. the health secretary, matt hancock, says the coronavirus is likely to be with us for months to come and that dealing with it is a marathon and not a sprint. meanwhile, more british nationals have returned from wuhan in china and been taken to arrowe park hospital on the wirral, joining others who flew in last week. 0ur health correspondent, dominic hughes, is there. what have we learned

from matt hancock's statement? fiona, health ministers and public health officials know they have to tread a very delicate line between keeping us informed and giving us the information we need to ensure we all stay safe and causing panic. but i think they could point with some justification of the fact that of the 326 tests for this virus carried out in the uk, only two have come back as positive and that is the couple of chinese nationals who are being treated in newcastle. also the actions of the passenger travelling back to the uk yesterday. felt ill on the journey back to raf brize norton. he alerted health experts on the plane with him, he was isolated from other passengers and did not travel with those ten people here to arrow park hospital. instead, he was treated at a local hospital and tested there. experts know this is, as matt hancock said, a marathon and

not a sprint and levels of vigilance like that will be carried out for months to come. following yesterday's attack in south london, the government announces emergency legislation to end automatic release of terror offenders halfway through their sentences. still to come... as the flagship welfare policy, universal credit is delayed again, we speak to those directly affected. coming up on sportsday in the next 15 minutes on bbc news... finn russell is left out of scotland's six nations squad for the second week running after a pretournament drinking session broke team protocols. the stage has been set for the next round of negotiations with the eu — establishing a new trade deal. britain is remaining aligned with eu rules for now — but only until the end of this year. borisjohnson insists the uk won't follow eu rules after that,

and that instead the government is aiming for a deal similar to the one the eu has struck with canada. the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier, says that the eu wants a close trading relationship with the uk but will not accept britain having ‘unfair competitive adva ntages'. here's our political editor, laura kuenssberg. this sight stood watch over our fortunes for more than 300 years — triumphs of the 18th century captured flamboyantly on the ceiling of the royal naval college by the thames... this is it. this is the newly forged united kingdom. ..looking down on the prime minister hoping for his own glory. we've made a choice. we want a comprehensive free trade agreement similar to canada's. but in the unlikely event that we do not succeed, then our trade will have to be based on our existing withdrawal agreement with the eu. that could mean taxes on imports and customs checks.

more autonomy for the uk, though, and a clear "no" to being bound by eu rules. dispel the absurd caricature of britain as a nation bent on the slash and burn of workers' rights and environmental protection, as if we are saved from dickensian squalor only by enlightened eu regulation, as if it was only thanks to brussels that we are not preparing to send children back up chimneys. on a rival platform on the other side of the channel... we are ready to offer a highly ambitious trade deal. the more we have common standards, the higher quality access the eu will be able to offer to its markets. but this will be up to the uk to decide. in other words, the eu's message to borisjohnson: the more you want to tack away, the harder it

will be to do business. if it is a choice between no comprehensive deal or sticking to eu rules, you've suggested that you would rather have no comprehensive deal. but do you accept that that might have significant costs for jobs, businesses and people's prosperity, as well as the benefits you claim there might be? when i hear prophecies of doom — i've heard them before — i don't believe them. this is a fantastic, robust and dynamic economy and will continue to be so. it will be not easy, but obviously it's good for everybody if there is a good deal at the end. he's got the team to put it together. i'm optimistic he can do it. this is about how we do business with the eu and the rest of the world in years to come. the prime minister believes, for brexit to be worth it, we have to be able to do things differently. but the eu reckons, for access to their markets, we ought to stick closely to their rules, and that's the clash. in truth, this is the beginning of what will be 11 months

of hard bargaining. and as you might expect, at this stage, there's an awful lot of chest beating going on. the prime minister didn't even want to mention the word brexit today, but you can't avoid the fact — just a few days on, there is plenty of argument over our place in the world that's yet to come. laura kuenssberg, bbc news. 0ur economics editor, faisal islam, is here. borisjohnson in boris johnson in bullish borisjohnson in bullish note on a future trade deal with the eu? we have left the eu but broadly speaking, just how far we depart is up speaking, just how far we depart is upforgrabs and speaking, just how far we depart is up for grabs and negotiation and right now, as we said, we are fully aligned with the eu and broadly speaking the further we go, the easier it is to set our own rules and regulations and do trade deals but the more difficult the existing, sea mless but the more difficult the existing, seamless trade with the eu becomes. borisjohnson is talking about the

canada deal, what is that? zero taxes on trade, no less tolerance for goods, that is it in canada has with the eu and we would like that and it also does involve some checks on regulations for goods and trade but it is a rather light touch in terms of having to align to the eu standards in terms of the level playing field considerations. what the eu said today as we cannot have the eu said today as we cannot have the same deal because we are so close to it as an economy that we would have to have a more stringent set of level playing field, particularly on competition and supporting our industry. if boris johnson says we cannot get this canada deal we will go for the australia deal instead, what is that? there is no deal between australia and the eu save for wine labelling and car park to standards and in terms of those taxes and trade, they are extensive, you have

them for cars, industries like food and there isn't any deal between australia and the eu. it seems to be a of remarketing no trade deal at the end of this year, which the prime minister said would not happen, he did not anticipate that happening during the election but because the eu have said no on canada, that is the alternative. like you very much. —— thank you very much. the bbc has learned that the full roll—out of universal credit — the government's flagship welfare reform — will be delayed again, adding £500 million to its overall cost. officials say not enough people are moving to universal credit, as they "are scared" to switch over to the newer benefit system. it was meant to be fully implemented in april 2017, but the new delay will push it back to september 2024. 0ur social affairs correspondent michael buchanan has the story. universal credit is the biggest welfare reform in a generation. it combines six established benefits into one payment and places greater emphasis on moving people into work. it's proving hard for some claimants to understand. how long do i need to be doing this job search thing? it's stressful, it is. we've got a little bit of a problem... but it's also proving a headache for the government. this senior civil servant

is responsible for ensuring the benefit works properly. a bbc film crew were there in september when the latest problem emerged. fewer people than expected have so far applied for universal credit. we have got a lot of anecdotal evidence about people being scared to come to universal credit. so that's why i would say my hypothesis is that's what's driving some of this. i can't think of what another factor would be. with around 5 million people still to be moved to universal credit from the old benefits, neil couling and his team are forced once more to delay the roll—out. actually, the only option here is to move the end date of the plan by nine months so that we would now complete in september 24. i would say that three, six or nine months doesn't matter. gary is safe. put the glens first and i'll take the beating! universal credit is meant to signify the benefits system but aspects of its design, such as people typically waiting five weeks for a first payment,

have caused huge problems. a disabled woman going without food because you people... you won't let me have one quick word with her. this latest delay will add an additional half a billion pounds to the cost of the roll—out. universal credit has been blamed for the rise in the use of food banks and for leaving some people in debt. it is now seven years behind its original timetable and it is billions over budget. but in here, in government, there is no plan b. they are completely committed to the new benefit. because there is 2.6 million people and if we get something wrong we could disrupt their lives and they've got no alternative. there is no alternative bank they can go to to get help. we are the payer of last resort. labour say the new delay is embarrassing for the government but ministers have insisted the new timetable won't affect anyone on benefits and remain committed to universal credit. michael buchanan, bbc news. and you can see the programme,

universal credit: inside on the bbc iplayer. the baftas were held in london last night, but the biggest talking point wasn't who picked up the awards but the lack of diversity amongst the nominees. all 20 acting nominees were white and no female directors were put forward for the seventh consecutive year. joaquin phoenix was praised for using his best actor acceptance speech to call for change, as our arts editor, will gompertz, reports. this report contains some flashing images. if there was any doubt that the lack of diversity in this year's bafta nominations was a significant issue, thenjoaquin phoenix made it absolutely clear it was when he picked up his award for best actor. i think that we send a very clear message to people of colour that 00:24:48,875 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 you are not welcome here.
