10:49 pm
editorjon sopel reports. day two of the trump impeachment trial, and harrowing new pictures and sounds of what unfolded on the 6th of january. the disbelief of the police. they are throwing metal balls at us. the prosecution argument — this was a direct consequence of donald trump's words and actions that day and in the weeks leading up to it. donald trump surrendered his role as commander—in—chief and became the inciter—in—chief. and he told this story of an african—american policeman who had fought the protesters for hours to defend the capitol. the trump legal team were given a kicking for their poor performance yesterday. donald trump was reportedly furious, and this republican senator changed his vote, he was so appalled.
10:50 pm
the issue in hand is, is it constitutional to impeach a president who has left office? and the house managers made a compelling, cogent case, and the president's team did not. but it looks like the former president has the votes to avoid being convicted and banned from ever holding public office again. but even if donald trump's impeachment problems go away, his legal difficulties don't — they're piling up, and in georgia, it's been confirmed that a criminal investigation has been launched after the president tried to persuade that state's secretary of state to find him extra votes so that he would win, and notjoe biden. what makes this deeply problematic for donald trump, who was campaigning in georgia after the election, is that him asking for those votes is not a question of rival accounts, it's on tape.
10:51 pm
election interference, one of the charges being looked at, is a felony offence. in other words, a crime that carries a prison sentence of more than a year. the mayhem at the capitol grew out of donald trump's repeated claims that the presidency had been stolen from him. it would indeed be ironic if he were the one man charged with interfering in the 2020 election. jon sopel, bbc news, washington. laura will be live from washington at the top of the hour it with the latest on donald trump second impeachment trial here on the bbc. for now we say goodbye to all of our viewers who are watching this on bbc world news. the british government has announced that extra three and a half billion pounds to
10:52 pm
pay for the removal of flammable cladding from high—rise flats in england. more than three and half years after the grenfell tower fire, there are still at least 700,000 people living in blocks with dangerous cladding. ministers have been under considerable pressure to do more to help as our business correspondent sarah corker explains. i'm bankrupt. a lot of people are on their way to going bankrupt. caught up in britain's growing cladding crisis. thousands of people are trapped living in unsafe flats. it's not our fault, we're not to blame for this. they're now facing life—changing bills. people across the country are crying out for help. in manchester, ben's building has multiple fire safety faults. his repair bill runs into tens of thousands of pounds. we don't know where we are going to get that money from. we, as leaseholders, feel like we are just at the short end of this horrible, horrible mess, where we're just not being protected by the government, like they promised us
10:53 pm
that they would. today the government announced an additional 5.5 billion for the building safety fund to remove cladding from tower blocks over 18 metres. for buildings under that height, there will be a new loan scheme, with repayments capped at £50 a month per leaseholder. and to force the industry to contribute, there will be a levy or tax on developers who build future high—rises. this exceptional intervention amounts to the largest—ever government investment in building safety. we believe in home ownership, and today we firmly support the hundreds of thousands of homeowners who need our help now. but campaigners have reacted angrily. they say loans for smaller blocks are not the answer. we've had people in tears, people are just distraught, and they don't know how they're
10:54 pm
going to see an end to this. the amount of money they've released is not enough, and once again it doesn't cover all the issues. since the grenfell tower fire, safety inspections on other high—rise buildings have exposed not just flammable cladding, but other fire safety problems too, including defective insulation and missing firebreaks. but there's still no government money to fix these faults, and it's flat owners who are still facing big bills. labour called the proposals an injustice. homeowners shouldn't face bankruptcy to fix a problem they didn't cause. unfortunately, these proposals will still leave too many people struggling and facing loans, instead of being givenjustice. and the conservative mp for stevenage said he watched the announcement with his head in his hands. we don't believe that leaseholders should have to pay, and the very idea of loans, the way in which they were announced, it's a punch to the guts to millions of leaseholders up and down the country.
10:55 pm
after years of pressure on the government to do more to help flat owners, this has been broadly welcomed by concerned tory backbenchers. but those stuck in flammable flats say it's taking too long to get a grips on this crisis. sarah corker, bbc news, in manchester. the body that represents tens of thousands of doctors across the world is urging the public not to watch copycat videos claim additional preventative treatments for coronavirus. the royal college of physicians sophos messaging is not only misleading but incredibly dangerous to. a video message on my step. today i will send you — a video message on my step. today i will send you an _ a video message on my step. today i will send you an important _ a video message on my step. today i will send you an important message. will send you an important message which can save us all from coronavirus. it is simple. and hell plain steam. plain water steam. ——
