of herself on social media with injuries she claimed were from being beaten, abused and trafficked by asian men. in fact she had inflicted the wounds on herself — using a hammer. the court heard that the three men who'd been falsely accused tried to take their own lives, saying they'd suffered "hell on earth". the judge said her allegations against the men had been complete fiction. this report from our north of england correspondent, nick garnett, includes some distressing details. when eleanor wilson told cumbria police she had been raped, drugged and abused by a series of men, they took the claims seriously. arrests were made and charges brought, but everything she said was a lie. for the men she accused, it made their life hell. smashed the windscreen... mohammed ramzam was targeted after she said he ran a grooming gang.

tomorrow, when the chancellor is expected to announced measures to get more people back to work in hope of easing shortages. our economics editor faisal islam has more. it is to work budget, that's the promise, but will it help end the strikes of public sector workers such asjodie, i —— a nurse in ealing? i such as jodie, i -- a nurse in ealin: ? ., such as jodie, i -- a nurse in ealing?_ such as jodie, i -- a nurse in ealing? i have stopped contributing to my pension- _ ealing? i have stopped contributing to my pension- l — ealing? i have stopped contributing to my pension. i could _ ealing? i have stopped contributing to my pension. i could easily - ealing? i have stopped contributing to my pension. i could easily get i ealing? i have stopped contributing to my pension. i could easily get to the bottom of two overdrafts because the bottom of two overdrafts because the contribution was so large and the contribution was so large and the price of everything is outpacing what i was earning. like, myjob is literally taking care of people on a daily basis and i'm worried i will not be able to take care of myself. the official line from government is there will be no new money for public sector pay in this budget,

despite some strikes being timed to coincide with the big day. the budget will though deal with a problem in the pension system that led to early retirement of thousands of highly qualified doctors, by considerably relaxing tax—free limits on pension pots and annual contributions. on the eve of the budget there were newjobs numbers today, and the big picture is that unemployment remains very low by historic standards at 3.7%. and although the number of vacancies fell, it still remains high — well above a million — with lots of people still choosing not to work — that's a big budget priority. inflation remains high because energy bills remain high. look at how much it's costing households. that is in dark red. that's been limited by the goverment spending billions to keep those bills down. but we may get even more in april.

and with global gas prices having fallen that should feed through to bills at some point. the hope is that lower energy prices will mean more for people to spend in the economy. you can see, back in november, the bank of england anticipated a significant recession. instead, this blue line shows the current forecast for a milder economic downturn, as the hope is that those lower energy prices help the economy. but critical to just where the economy is predicted to go is the government's success are not in getting the workforce back up to full strength. many businesses and economists point to the need to loosen the post exit visa system for foreign workers in shortage sectors such as agriculture.— such as agriculture. there is still a shortage _ such as agriculture. there is still a shortage of people _ such as agriculture. there is still a shortage of people and the i a shortage of people and the consequence is we are letting lots of local farmers and clients down. basically they don't have enough staff. , ., basically they don't have enough staff. , . ., , basically they don't have enough staff. ., staff. firms are actually closing? yes, the staff. firms are actually closing? yes. they d0- — staff. firms are actually closing? yes. they d0- l — staff. firms are actually closing? yes, they do. i had _ staff. firms are actually closing? yes, they do. i had a _ staff. firms are actually closing? yes, they do. i had a client i staff. firms are actually closing? yes, they do. i had a client in i

doctors had already expressed concerns about lucy letby to management. she denies murdering seven babies and attempting to murder a further ten babies. our north of england correspondent is following the case. the number of baby deaths on the neonatal unit had been worrying doctors at the countess of chester hospital for some time, when two of three triplets died within 2a hours of each other injune 2016. consultants say they had started to suspect that nurse lucy letby was associated with the series of deaths. when the second triplet died, there was a meeting about his case. the head of the neonatal unit had been personally concerned. he told the jury...

he said medics had already expressed their concerns to hospital managers, but now he picked up the phone to the senior nursing executive on duty. the court heard that during that call, stephen brewery said he didn't want lucy letby to come to work until the deaths had been investigated. his request was denied, he was told there was no evidence. he said he asked the executive if she would be happy to take responsibility should anything happen to any more babies on the unit the following day, and she said she would. it's alleged that on her ship the next day, lucy letby attempted to murder another baby by injecting him with air. that was the last time she worked on the neonatal unit. in court, the nurse of�*s defence team said that if there was a basis for the doctor's suspicions, they would have gone to the police rather than management. lucy letby denies all the charges against her, the trial

continues. judith morris, bbc news, manchester. the three people vying to become the next first minister of scotland, and leader of the snp, will take part in theirfinal debate tonight. kate forbes, the finance secretary, humza yousaf, the health secretary, and ash regan, a former minister, will answer audience questions in edinburgh in an event hosted by the bbc. our scotland editor, james cook is there and will be watching. james. that's right. as you say, the big difference between this debate and the various other debates that have taken place so far is the audience sitting here will ask questions of the candidates in this very grand, beautiful venue in the centre of edinburgh. the candidates will be over here. humza yousaf presenting himself really is the continuity candidate from nicola sturgeon with what he calls a progressive agenda. kate forbes talking about her priority to get the economy growing, to tackle poverty, and ash regan who has put independence at the heart of this campaign. will sparks fly? they

have done so in some of the other debates so far. it's been a ferocious contest at times with heated discussions about some of those issues, about cultural issues, about the economy and independence. but it's not the audience in this room who the candidates need to reach, it's not the wider television audience, it is the snp members who will be voting. they started to vote in this contest yesterday and they have a couple of weeks to cast their ballots to choose who will be scotland's next snp leader anyway, and then the parliament itself has to vote on who will become first minister. , ., , ., ~ to vote on who will become first minister. , ., , ., ,, , ., minister. james, thank you. the united _ minister. james, thank you. the united states _ minister. james, thank you. the united states says i minister. james, thank you. the united states says a i minister. james, thank you. i the united states says a russian fighter plane has collided with an american military drone over the black sea. the us military said the plane struck the unmanned drone's propeller in what it called a reckless and unprofessional intercept. the us military opted to bring it down in international waters.

almost all of britain 's major developers — including britain's biggest house builder barrett — have agreed to sign contracts to remove flammable cladding from tower blocks and fix other fire safety defects discovered in the wake of the grenfell fire tragedy. the housing secretary michael gove had threatened them with been banned from building completely in future if they didn't. but developers and cladding campaign groups claim the legal contracts will only tackle a small proportion of the overall problem, as phil hendry explains. chanting: we cannot pay! it's taken protests and endless amounts of campaigning. but nearly six years on from grenfell, have the flat owners caught up in the cladding crisis finally got what they want? developers signing contracts to fix their flammable and unsafe buildings. by signing the contract, these developers have committed to fixing at least 1,100 buildings. they will invest more than £2 billion in that work. let me take this opportunity once again to apologise to those leaseholders and others who've waited so long for

this work to be done. let us help you find your perfect home. but there's a problem with this approach. it means the shine has come off the glossy videos for thousands living in the former olympic park in stratford. it has dangerous cladding and other fire defects, but there's no developer to chase to sign a contract. it was dissolved after the blocks were completed for the 2012 games. we have no timeline. we have no plan of action. we're kind of waiting around for other people to make decisions and we're trying to lobby government organisations, and no—one really wants to listen. the government says residents here should be helped by the existing £3 billion building safety fund. but while stratford continues to expand at pace, two years after submitting a0 applications to the fund to fix the existing blocks, residents are still waiting to hear about most of them. developers being dissolved or going bust is not an uncommon problem.

so michael gove's latest initiative may only help about 15% of dangerous tower blocks. that's according to the house builders' federation, who represent britain's biggest developers. they're also being asked, through taxes and through levies, to pay for problems with buildings that they didn't build, that were built by overseas developers or by developers who are no longer around, and that's the majority of these buildings. there are also tens of thousands of smaller flats under five floors, with fire safety concerns about which new the mr gove nor the developers are doing anything because they're deemed low risk. that's a good toy! try telling new mum amanda that. we've lost multiple buyers. the surveyor comes round. the first thing that he does is notice the cladding and then the banks refuse to lend. because we are low risk and it's deemed that we could get out of our property, it's deemed not to matter that our whole livelihoods are inside our property, which could combust at any moment. with hundreds of thousands of defective flats of all heights

across britain, it might notjust be the current generation struggling to get on and move up the housing ladder. phil hendry, bbc news. the time is 6:17pm. our top story this evening. a 22—year—old woman, who made a series of false allegations of rape and sexual grooming, has been sentenced to eight and a half years in prison for perverting the course ofjustice. iam here i am here at cheltenham for day one of racing is most famous sebastopol. the british number one goes up against the world number one. she looks to continue her strong run in california. were accused of violence

called pholcodine. they cannot be purchased just on the shelves in a pharmacy or supermarket, they are only purchased if you go up to the counter and you get them on the advice of a pharmacist. research has shown in a small number of cases people who have taken these products, who then needed general anaesthetic involving a muscle relaxant, subsequently for any condition can have quite a nasty allergic reaction, so the advice is, if you take on one of the medicines and you need to go into hospitalfor and you need to go into hospitalfor an operation, talk to the anaesthetist or another medical expert. and the advice is if you have them at home, these bottles of cough medicine labelled with pholcodine, talk to your local pharmacist about an alternative, and there are alternatives for treating dry coughs. and further advice and information is available on the bbc news website and the medical council website. and you can see the full list of the medicines being recalled on our website. head to bbc.co.uk/news.

tens of thousands ofjunior doctors in england are on strike for a second day. the british medical association is asking for a 35 percent pay rise for its members, arguing their wages have been cut by 26 percent since 2008, once inflation is taken into account. the government says the union's demands are "completely unaffordable". navtej johal spent the day with one junior doctor on the picket line. bear with me, because i'm attempting to make a lot of coffee to take with me. fuelling up for a day not at work. this is melissa. she is 42, originally from new zealand, living in nottingham and is a junior doctor who, for the first time, is on strike. to actually be standing outside your work and not be at work is a bizarre feeling, i think. she switched careers from being a clinical psychologist and has now finished her foundation training. she is specialising in paediatrics.

i'm the person who's there when your baby is born, and working with your sick child i might be the one who puts the cannula in to give them antibiotics if they have meningitis, so i'm giving life—saving treatment and being paid £19 per hour to do so. the idea of medicine is interesting, but it's so much better when you get to work with children and families. we are following melissa throughout the day to understand whyjunior doctors have decided to walk out. she's on her way to the picket line where she works at nottingham's queens medical centre. often i'm doing the work of two or three doctors at a time, and it's just exhausting. the cost of living crisis affects every single person, and you'd think doctors would not be so affected by it, but we are. the british medical association which represents junior doctors wants a 35% pay increase for them. they say their pay has fallen by 26% in the last 15 years, once inflation is taken into account.

the government says the demands are completely unaffordable. some will argue that at this time, that is simply too much. what would you say to that? what price do they put for having well—trained professionals, doctors, like myself, like all my colleagues here, on the ground, treating patients? what price do they think about for maintaining a good public health service? and i'm sorry for the patients that have had their appointments cancelled for today or for tomorrow, but i think what we have to think about is that at any moment in time the government could have called us in to negotiate and stop the strike. the nhs is in a state of crisis and it's notjust because ofjunior doctors being offered for three days. same time, same place, bring your placards, possibly with clingfilm on, so they last a bit longer. melissa admits she has felt so disillusioned by the pay and working conditions that she's considered moving back to new zealand. but she is hopeful that the strikes will lead to a positive outcome.

and if that doesn't happen, would you go back? erm, yes, i might. i might actually make exit plans, and i don't think i'd be alone in that. i think there are many, many of my colleagues who have said this is our last chance, otherwise we are going to make our exit plans from the nhs, and so be it. we will see what happens to the nhs then when they don't have any doctors. navteonhal, bbc news, nottingham. king charles iii is about to appear on stamps for the first time. the royal mail is releasing a special collection next week — featuring the king's silhouette among garden flowers — reflecting the fact that he is a passionate gardener. ordinary first and second class stamps with the king's head won't be in circulation until next month, when existing stocks featuring queen elizabeth run out. around a quarter of a million people are expected at the cheltenham festival this week — as one biggest events in racing gets underway. what's new this year
