live from london, this is bbc news. south wales police have again insisted there was no police vehicle industry in cardiff where two boys were killed in a crash on monday evening. the bbc verifies new video. there was no police vehicle in snowden road at the time of the collision, and we believe there were no other vehicles involved in the incident. two big political stories in the uk — we have the latest on the controversies involving the home secretary and boris johnson. florida's governor, ron desantis, is about to announce his bid to be the republican candidate for the 2024 presidential election.

a paralysed man is able to walk again using brain and spine implants. we'll have a special report. hello, i'm matthew amroliwala. welcome to verified live, three hours of breaking stories and checking out the truth behind them. let's start with what is happening in wales where in the last hour or so, a police chief has insisted no police vehicles were following two teenagers in a crash and cardiff where the children were killed. the police watchdog is to independently investigate the incident which parked awry on monday night. the families of 15—year—old harvey evans and a 16—year—old kyrees solomon have paid tribute to the pair saying they were not only love of their families but by the community as

well. the bc has obtained new video footage of the teenagers with these images taken about five minutes before the accident occurred. they appear to show the teenagers writing about with no police visible. here is another cctv piece of footage where we can first see the boys and then a few seconds later comes a police van following them. in the last little while, we have had the deputy chief cost talking to journalists announcing the findings of the timeline of events after going through cctv footage, going through data and talking to witnesses and this is what she described. witnesses and this is what she described-— witnesses and this is what she described. there was no police vehicle in _ described. there was no police vehicle in snowden _ described. there was no police vehicle in snowden road - described. there was no police vehicle in snowden road at - described. there was no police| vehicle in snowden road at the described. there was no police - vehicle in snowden road at the time of the collision and we believe there were no other vehicles involved in the incident. we have based this on witness accounts, tracking data and cctv footage. we

have made a mandatory referral to the independent office for police conduct to ensure the matter receives independent scrutiny. we will provide them with all the information we have, and they will undertake an independent investigation. i will now turn to the violence and disorder which happened and ely on monday night. nothing can excuse this. property was damaged and people were scared in their own homes. ourfocus now is to fully cooperate with the iop c investigation into the circumstances of the collision and to investigate the appalling scenes that followed. we are appealing for witnesses, information and footage from mobile phones and social media. that information and footage from mobile phones and social media.— phones and social media. that was the olice phones and social media. that was the police press — phones and social media. that was the police press conference - phones and social media. that was the police press conference in - phones and social media. that was the police press conference in the l the police press conference in the last little while under quite considerable pressure in terms of the various journalists all asking about the initial information the police put out in the immediate

moments after the beginnings of the investigation and the contradictions. and that's why they were so careful and so detailed to go through the timeline just now, starting with the footage they showed, starting at 5:59pm become leading at 6:02pm where they said the collision happened in snowden road and all that we as in the police vehicle a little earlier in one of those cctv pieces of footage, the police officer there making the point that the police vehicle was half a mile away in snowden road at the time of the accident. you hurt her there just the time of the accident. you hurt her therejust go on the time of the accident. you hurt her there just go on to talk about the violence and there were no excuses for that. she talked about the shock of the local community, these scenes that went on for hours on the ground in ely and she said they were investigating those appalling scenes that had troubled so many in the community. but at

pains, the deputy chief council talked about being as transparent as possible and she was being asked about a pursuit, the police pursuit, and she said i cannot respond because that is exactly what is being investigated by the iop c. and in terms of more of the questioning and more of the pressure, you heard the deputy chief cost being asked did she regret the initial messaging from police and she said we did our best with the information we had and they continue to make the point that they continue to make the point that they were studying hours of cctv footage and it looked at tracking data and talk to witnesses and continued to work through more of the cctv footage. so thatjust a flavour of some of the questions. our reporter was there in that news conference we will talk to him on that story in the next few minutes. worth returning finally fully move away to what the families themselves

have been saying that because the two families issuing thatjoint statement, the families of harvey evans and kyrees solomon, saying that they paid tribute to the best friends, adding they were loved by not only their families but by the entire community as well so the families with a brief statement there, but so much focus on the actions of the police and certainly the information the police have given out. we will talk to our reporter there in cardiff in the next little while. now to uk politics. two big political stories on the move today in the uk first regarding the current home secretary the second concerning borisjohnson. the british prime minister, rishi sunak, says he believes suella braverman did not breach the ministerial code. the home secretary, one

of mr sunak�*s senior ministers, was accused of asking civil servants to help her avoid taking part in a group speed awareness course after she was caught speeding. mr sunak says he has consulted with the independent adviser on ministerial interests and was advised that on this occasion, further investigation is not necessary. as for boris johnson, he's ditched government—appointed lawyers for his submission to the covid inquiry. it follows the news yesterday that the former prime minister faces a new police probe for potential breaches over covid lockdown restrictions. separately, the cabinet office has been threatened with legal action over a row with the official covid—i9 inquiry over the release of unredacted whatsapp messages and diaries belonging to mrjohnson. let's get more with our uk political correspondent rob watson. he is monitoring both these moving stories. let's start with boris johnson, those two developments so just to get through it.—

just to get through it. there are actually two _ just to get through it. there are actually two stories _ just to get through it. there are actually two stories to - just to get through it. there are actually two stories to deal - just to get through it. there are actually two stories to deal with borisjohnson, and i think the first one in many ways is the most important story and that is as he were just suggesting their the covid essentially saying to boris johnson and the cabinet office and the government, in order to do ourjob properly we are going to want boris johnson's what set messages and we are going to want his diaries. that is the big development in them and insisting they are going to get it. borisjohnson posit responsive in the safe in a letter to the inquiry, look, it's not me standing in the way of releasing things, it's way of releasing things, its government lawyers for some of them is actually rather unclear whether borisjohnson himself is actually rather unclear whether boris johnson himself will continue fighting to stop those things being released. using second story concerning borisjohnson is if you like a continuing story, if you like maybe could describe it as the low—level war between team johnson and his supporters and those that they consider to be his enemies like

team sunak and others in the latest flare—up is how on earth did police get hold of borisjohnson's diaries as promised her and to look at whether there have been any further violations of lockdown restrictions. let's turn to the other store you'll be keeping tabs on, the story that has made many headlines over the last two or three days, but no inquiry regarding the home secretary suella braverman, but in those letters, sheep perhaps regretting her actions and the key to this was whether she should have used civil service in terms of making these inquiries as opposed to making the inquiry through self or getting her own lawyer to do that.— inquiry through self or getting her own lawyer to do that. again, meant to ou, own lawyer to do that. again, meant to you. matthew. — own lawyer to do that. again, meant to you, matthew, you _ own lawyer to do that. again, meant to you, matthew, you have - own lawyer to do that. again, meant to you, matthew, you have done - own lawyer to do that. again, meant to you, matthew, you have done my| to you, matthew, you have done my job is summed it up very nicely and have you taken by macro wanted to be fair or even some of suella braverman's many critics is it's hard to say she did something

obviously rivals up rishi sunak us with that in the view that there is a here really orienting sacking and secondly the politics of it as well given that she does not seem to have done much wrong and the prime minister poz bellevue. you certainly would not want the political trouble from the right of the governing conservative party that he would have got from removing her, so if you like the suella braverman storm was a rather gentle one and has sort of passed through british politics and has sort of heading out. although of course matthew it would no longer be —— no doubt be revived tomorrow when the net migration figures come out which expect to show the highest level since the war, second world war that is. rab war, second world war that is. rob watson they _ war, second world war that is. rob watson they are in the newsroom there, thank you very much for taking us through all of that. toa to a fascinating story because a peerless management able to walk again by something about it thanks to electronic implants. a medical first because the implants were wirelessly transmitting his thoughts

to his legs and feet via a second implant in his spine in the system is still very much at an experiment of state but a leading uk spinal charity called it very encouraging. here is our science correspondent. this man leaves his wheelchair behind to take a walk in the park. he was paralysed in a cycling accident in 2001. for more than a decade, he was unable to walk, but a brain implant has changed everything. i am in full control of motor stimulation. and that gives me a lot of freedom which i did not have with the previous therapy. gert—jan could barely walk even with the aid of a harness when he first arrived at a pioneering swiss research lab. two years ago, he had an operation to insert two implants on his brain, another into his spine.

gert—jan is unable to walk because his accident damaged nerves in his spine. that reduces signals from his brain to his legs. the spinal implant amplified those signals, and two more implantsjust above his brain capture his thoughts, capture his thoughts, and a computer sends them wirelessly to the spinal implant. but the neurosurgeon who carried out the delicate operation told me that there was a long way to go before the system would be available to all those that needed it. at this stage, it's a little bit early because we know it's the first technology and we had to do the proof of concept. but then the idea is to have the possibility to develop a device that is available for everybody. so what message do you have for paralysed people watching this programme? so the message to the paralysed people is that we can provide a little bit of hope again to gain movement. of course people with a spinal cord injury will not be able to walk

the same as they used to before the injury. they will be able to regain some mobility, which is so good for their health in general. it looks like it works! gert—jan is the latest of nine other paralysed patients that have been successfully treated. david and michelle can also walk now because of spinal implants. but gert—jan is the first to have the brain implant, which gives him more control and makes his movements more natural. in the case of david and michelle, the stimulation is preprogrammed, so they have to make a movement to trigger a preprogrammed sequence of stimulation, which makes the walk a little bit robotic. in the case of gert—jan, he's not controlled by the stimulation. he controls the stimulation with his thoughts. the technology is still at its very

middle stage and used only for short periods, but researchers believe they can make further progress in the years to come. pallab ghosh, bbc news. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. when australia was out of reach due to pandemic travel restrictions in 2020 and 2021, producers of the itv reality show set up camp at i9th—century gwrych castle. although the sets have been cleared away with the show�*s return down under, its popularity as a venue for tourists and events like weddings has grown. it currently has a licence until 10pm. the trust, which wants to restore and conserve the castle, applied for a licence to stay open until 1am at weekends, serve alcohol and refreshments and host live music. some local people opposed the application, citing safety and noise concerns, which the council considered at a meeting. but those who support the proposal say other local businesses have similar licences and it'll help

create jobs in the area. we had a wedding that was wasn't very loud till iam for 150 people. if you haven't heard it, you're probably not going to hear anything from the current premises licence. the castle trust hopes it will soon be able to raise a glass to its new—found celebrity status. you're live with bbc news. we will return to that riot in cardiff soon and in the next moments we will speak to our reporter in wales and get his thoughts on what was a very interesting news conference with pressure on the police with the first minister of wales, mark drakeford, has been speaking in the last few minutes and was asked about what he thought when he first saw what was actually happening in ely on monday night. have a listen. ma; happening in ely on monday night. have a listen.— happening in ely on monday night. have a listen. my main thought was of profound — have a listen. my main thought was of profound sorrow _ have a listen. my main thought was of profound sorrow for _ have a listen. my main thought was

who live in that part of cardiff. the events themselves will be investigated as we know by the police and i hope myself to convene a meeting on friday of main public authorities to look not at what happened on monday night, but at the background of precipitating causes to see what more we can do to give confidence to people on the estate that the police have the resources they need to respond effectively and properly to incidents that happened and where there is more that can be done to help give people growing up in that area. done to help give people growing up in that area-— in that area. because it has been said over the _ in that area. because it has been said over the last _ in that area. because it has been said over the last few _ in that area. because it has been said over the last few days - in that area. because it has been said over the last few days that l said over the last few days that trust _ said over the last few days that trust is — said over the last few days that trust is broken down between the community and the police. do you think— community and the police. do you think that's — community and the police. do you think that's the case? | community and the police. do you think that's the case?— community and the police. do you think that's the case? i think there is a re air think that's the case? i think there is a repair work _ think that's the case? i think there is a repair work to _ think that's the case? i think there is a repair work to be _ think that's the case? i think there is a repair work to be done - think that's the case? i think there is a repair work to be done in that| is a repair work to be done in that relationship. i think there's been an anxiety notjust this week but over a period of time that the police don't have the capacity they need to respond to crimes where they are committed or anti—social

behaviour when that takes place and if people don't have confidence, that when things are going round they get the response that's needed, thenit they get the response that's needed, then it can breed a longer—term sense of lack of faith that public authority. so i am very keen to bring all of those who have a part to play around the table together, pool information, pool ideas and see what more we could do to help. itruihat what more we could do to help. what do ou what more we could do to help. what do you make — what more we could do to help. what do you make of _ what more we could do to help. what do you make of the _ what more we could do to help. what do you make of the way the police have handled thi5 do you make of the way the police have handled this situation? there have handled this situation? there have been— have handled this situation? there have been critics of that.— have handled this situation? there have been critics of that. there are ressures have been critics of that. there are pressures for _ have been critics of that. there are pressures for police _ have been critics of that. there are pressures for police to _ have been critics of that. there are pressures for police to answer - have been critics of that. there are pressures for police to answer and | pressures for police to answer and we know they refer themselves to the independent investigation service and we must allow that to do its job. and then i think we will have the full facts available at people the full facts available at people the end will be able to make a round a judgment about the way the police responded to the events on monday evening. bud responded to the events on monday evenina. �* , , ., , evening. and this is a different asect of evening. and this is a different aspect of it _ evening. and this is a different aspect of it because _ evening. and this is a different aspect of it because the - evening. and this is a different aspect of it because the police | evening. and this is a different - aspect of it because the police and crime _ aspect of it because the police and crime commissioner is a political official, _ crime commissioner is a political official, but the commissioner said

more on all of our main stories here on verified life. coming up in a moment or two, don't go away. hello. we've seen some spectacular sunrise and sunset pictures over the last 24 hours, like this one from warwickshire. now, a lot of the cloud you could see here is actually aeroplane contrails — in other words, the water that comes out of the back of aeroplane engines, turns to ice crystals to make these clouds. now the contrails can last for many, many hours if there's a lot of moisture in the atmosphere seven miles above our head, the height aeroplanes fly. and that's exactly what's been going on. however, through today, we seen those contrails blow towards france, and at the same time, we've had some drier air seven miles up in the atmosphere working across england and wales. in other words, those contrails aren't going to be quite as widespread, nor as long—lived over the next couple of days. now, today, we've seen lots of warm weather.

the temperatures quite widely across the midlands, south and east wales, southern england reached the low 20s, and we've got more of the same to come as well. now, overnight tonight, we'll keep clear skies, just a few patches of cloud drifting southwards across parts of england. the skies clearing in scotland to give some colder weather here, with temperatures dipping down into low single figures in the coldest areas as we head into the first part of thursday morning. but essentially, the weather won't change a whole lot over the next few days, thanks to this big area of high pressure. the winds continue to come round that from the atlantic, so temperatures aren't going to change a great deal either. thursday then, perhaps a little bit more in the way of cloud across central and eastern england, but still some spells of sunshine. and at the same time, there should be more in the way of sunshine to look forward to in scotland. wherever you are, our temperatures are likely to reach the high teens to low 20s pretty widely and will likely peak at around 23 for south—east wales, the south—west midlands and south—west england. how warm's 23?

well, compare with warm spells we've seen over recent mays, 23 kind of puts us right at the bottom of the pile. more often than not, warm spells at this time of year bring those temperatures into the mid—to—high 20s. now for friday, there is again little overall change in the big weather picture. a lot of dry weather, a lot of sunshine around. this time, probably less cloud for eastern england, a bit more cloud for scotland, where there could be an odd passing spot of rain in the north—west. but for the vast majority, it's dry and its warm in the may sunshine, with temperatures again in high teens to low 20s. bye for now.

this is bbc news, the headlines... the bbc obtain new footage after two teenagers were killed in a crash in cardiff on monday. officials insists they were not being chased by the police. two big political stories in the uk — we have the latest on the controversies involving the home secretary and boris johnson. uk inflation falls below 10% for the first time since august, but food bills rise at the fastest in 45 years. a senior doctor with key role in reforming the controversial tavistock gender unit for children has questioned the need for change.
