it's down from just over 10% in march to 8.7% in the year to april. but the drop is less than many expected, driven by food prices which have continued to surge at their fastest rate in nearly 45 years. the uk looks poised to win a battle with spain and host a multi—billion pound electric car battery plant in somerset. and a life—changing medical breakthrough, as a man paralysed in a cycling accident walks again thanks to implants in his brain. later in the hour we was discussed bbc sport. good evening. there have been more details from

south wales police about the events leading to the death of two boys in cardiff. but their account has raised fresh questions. security camera footage showed a police van following the teenage edges on the electric bike moments before the accident. kyrees, who was 16, and a 15—year—old harvey evans were both killed. the police say they had no vehicles on the road where the crash happened. at the families are both boys have said the pair were best friends and pay tribute to them. dan johnson is in cardiff for us. on this estate on the edge of cardiff there is still a huge amount of upset, concern, anxiety and a certain degree of confusion, people wanting answers and details and wanting answers and details and wanting to know how this could have happened and how it could have led to such a serious disorder on monday night. getting to the bottom of that, working out what caused this will focus on just a couple of minutes either side of the six o'clock on monday night and a couple of hundred metres of road. that is

what this comes down to but at the heart of this course is the death of two teenage boys and it is their last moments that have been caught on camera. piece by piece, we are building a picture of what happened in the minutes before these two teenagers died. the security camera footage shows kyrees sullivan and harvey evans just before the crash that killed them. and watch, behind, at some distance, a police van which started following them at least two minutes earlier. police have reiterated they were not pursuing the boys at the time they crashed. but we have had some further details. at but we have had some further details. �* ., details. at the time of the collision. _ details. at the time of the collision, the _ details. at the time of the collision, the police - details. at the time of the | collision, the police vehicle details. at the time of the i collision, the police vehicle is details. at the time of the - collision, the police vehicle is in grand avenue, half a mile away from snowdon road. 180659, the police vehicle is on cowbridge road west when it received information about a road traffic collision. offices

snowdon road just over there. kyrees sullivan was 16, harvey evans 15. they had known each other since they were young boys put out their deaths hit everyone here and the response sparked some of the worst rioting in recent memory. of the south wales police commissioner this morning again reiterated what he had been told. i again reiterated what he had been told. . , . , , . again reiterated what he had been told. ., ., ,, ., �* again reiterated what he had been told. ., �* , told. i was assured and i'm still assured they — told. i was assured and i'm still assured they were _ told. i was assured and i'm still assured they were not - told. i was assured and i'm still assured they were not being i told. i was assured and i'm still- assured they were not being chased by the police at the time of the road traffic accident.— by the police at the time of the road traffic accident. assured by the police? _ road traffic accident. assured by the police? yes, _ road traffic accident. assured by the police? yes, and _ road traffic accident. assured by the police? yes, and there - road traffic accident. assured by l the police? yes, and there wasn't road traffic accident. assured by i the police? yes, and there wasn't a olice the police? yes, and there wasn't a police vehicle _ the police? yes, and there wasn't a police vehicle in _ the police? yes, and there wasn't a police vehicle in the _ the police? yes, and there wasn't a police vehicle in the street - the police? yes, and there wasn't a police vehicle in the street where l police vehicle in the street where the accident took place. it police vehicle in the street where the accident took place.— police vehicle in the street where the accident took place. it has been roved the accident took place. it has been proved they — the accident took place. it has been proved they have _ the accident took place. it has been proved they have been _ the accident took place. it has been proved they have been lying - the accident took place. it has beenl proved they have been lying because lots of _ proved they have been lying because lots of people — proved they have been lying because lots of people have _ proved they have been lying because lots of people have seen _ proved they have been lying because lots of people have seen it. - proved they have been lying because lots of people have seen it. but- lots of people have seen it. but there are _ lots of people have seen it. there are witnesses here challenging that account. there are witnesses here challenging that account-— that account. they came up the street and _ that account. they came up the street and there _ that account. they came up the street and there will _ that account. they came up the street and there will be - that account. they came up the l street and there will be followed. would _ street and there will be followed. would you — street and there will be followed. would you call_ street and there will be followed. would you call it _ street and there will be followed. would you call it a _ street and there will be followed. would you call it a chase, - street and there will be followed. would you call it a chase, a - would you call it a chase, a pursuit? i would you call it a chase, a pursuit?— would you call it a chase, a ursuit? ., , ., , ., , pursuit? i would. yes, it was fast. there are — pursuit? i would. yes, it was fast. there are questions _ pursuit? i would. yes, it was fast. there are questions for _ pursuit? i would. yes, it was fast. there are questions for the - pursuit? i would. yes, it was fast. there are questions for the police | there are questions for the police to answer. we know they have referred themselves to the

independent investigation service. we must allow that to do its job. independent investigators from the police watchdog are here working out exactly what happened. and local detectives have their own investigations as well into the disorder and the actions of their own officers leading up to it. dan johnson, bbc news, cardiff. our wales corresponding to tomos morgan its apps out south wales police headquarters and it is a force under pressure? —— is outside. yes, i was in the press conference just now and the deputy chief constable walked out after only a few conference and media were hurling questions as she left and let's not forget that this force only referred themselves to the iop seat after the bbc released that footage yesterday which showed that the police were following them and that changed the narrative, the narrative given by the police commission it would have said there was no pursuit and no chase but we know that they were following the

boysin know that they were following the boys in the minutes before they died. i have spoken to several people here in the last 48 hours and they have spoken about the distrust they have spoken about the distrust they have spoken about the distrust they have for the police and the way that information has come out in the last 48 hours, that will not have helped the relationship they have. the police constable did say that the way things transpired on monday is not like anyone how anyone would have wanted it to but let's not forget at the heart of all of this, two young teenagers have died, but we will not find out why the police were following them until the iop seat investigation has completed. thank you. there's mixed news tonight about the economy and how much the pound in your pocket can buy. inflation — that's the rate by which prices are rising — has fallen below 10% for the first time since last august. in the year to march, inflation was 10.1%. but new figures show that last month it slowed to 8.7%. so prices are still rising, but at a slower rate than before.

part of the reason for that is a drop in the wholesale cost of energy. but food price inflation is still close to a 45—year high. our economics editor, faisal islam, is here with more. thank you. underneath the good news of the end of double digit inflation is the not so good news about the stubbornness of rising prices here. while we expect confirmation tomorrow that household energy bills will start to fall, and their stabilisation so far is pushing the main measure of inflation down, pressures elsewhere are spreading and raising the pressure on the bank of england to push interest rates even further up to or even above 5%, as i found out in essex, the squeeze has some way to run yet. this is a reminder, switch on boiler. . been setting my alarm to remind me to switch on the boiler so it's only on for the minimum amount of time, and it's just gone off. energy prices may have just started

to send the headline rate of inflation down, but the price rises over the past year are still squeezing hard the income of the likes of david from rochford in essex. our energies have doubled in a year, and of course we've just noticed it now with the rebate that we were all getting. so again i had to be really, really creative there. so there's a lot of promise or suggestions that that's peaked and is coming down, but right now, are you seeing any of that? no, not feeling any of it at all. and very cautious about relaxing yet. david's caution is well—founded because what started in fuel and energy prices, and is now seen in stubbornly high food prices, has now started to spread to other parts of the economy, with just last month new double—digit hikes in the cost of mobile phone contracts. here's the good news. the main inflation number, well, that has come down and will continue to do so as long as we don't see

a repeat of high energy prices. but inflation is still well above the target there in the dotted line. now let's remove the most volatile prices — food and household energy bills — and look at underlying inflationary pressure, or core inflation, there in the yellow. that is going even higher. right now, a 30—year high, and it's that that the bank of england watches most closely. so this number suggests more rate rises to come. if we also look at comparable countries — in the eu, the us — we can see inflation is coming down everywhere slowly. but more slowly here in the uk in red, raising questions. i think it's very dangerous to make international comparisons when things are changing so rapidly. you know, a few months ago, everyone was saying we were going to be the lowest—growing economy in the g7~ _ now we're definitely not going to be that. the imf also warned about premature celebration over inflation.

is that maybe all we've got? well, we've never celebrated anything. until we achieve our objective to halve inflation, the job is not done. the shadow chancellor, visiting the us, says the uk could do better. every country has gone _ through the pandemic, the financial crisis and now of course russia's illegal invasion of ukraine. - and yet the british economy- is uniquely exposed and takes too long to bounce back. just to confirm, when you get your £672 for universal credit, £417 goes to your rent alone? in leeds, a charity that helped david manage his debts after losing hisjob has never seen such demand. are you going without at times? are you going at points without having any electric or without having any gas at the property? average families on average mortgages are still to face a huge income shock from existing rate rises.

the boss of barclays bank said today that further rises are now almost certain. faisal islam, bbc news. as we heard, food prices in the uk continued in april to surge at their fastest rate in nearly 45 years, with staples like sugar, milk and pasta up sharply. they're one of the main drivers of the current inflation rate and have been deemed "worryingly high" by the chancellor. our cost of living correspondent colletta smith has been taking a look at what this has meant for shoppers at one supermarket. rising food bills are a challenge for all of us at the moment. so i have been carrying out a very unscientific experiment — buying the same ten basic items from aldi every month or so for more than a year now, to see what food inflation really looks and feels like. so, my shop today has cost me £18.29. that is an increase from £14.57 this time last year. i have done this shop nine times

over the last year or so and prices of individual items have gone up and down within that period but today, each of these ten items is more expensive than they were this time last year. the standout increase is these crinkle cut frozen chips, which are up 79%, from £1.09 to £1.95. sugar was up 62%, from 65p to £1.05. but cornflakes increased a little less, just 13%, from £1.99 to £2.25. so my whole trolley has gone up by 25.5% in a year. that is higher than the overall inflation rate and higher than the official rate for food inflation too, as price rises are higher on lots of basic food items. bread, milk, eggs and fruit and vegetables. and how does it feel, what sort of impact is it having on your budget? my budget is quite depleted! i'm 78, i live on my pension.

i know exactly more or less what i want to spend a week but there is a difference between what i want to spend and what i have to spend now. higherfood production, transport, profit and wage costs are being tagged onto food prices whether you are eating in or out. working across the north of england, community kitchen provides help for people struggling. the recipe has got five or six ingredients and they will do enough for maybe ten portions and they will get to take that home with them as well. there are some people who can't even afford to put the oven on, let alone buy the ingredients to put in there, you know. there is lots more information, recipe ideas and tips for keeping your food bills down if you go to the cost of living pages on the bbc news website. because even if food inflation reduces more by the end of this year, as predicted, that does not mean cheaper shop prices. theyjust won't be going up as quickly. i have not picked aldi because their price increases are any better or any worse than any other supermarket

but with so many more people switching to discount stores, the prices may be cheaper to start with but my trolley over the last year shows that none of us can escape food price rises, no matter where you are shopping. colletta smith, bbc news, in manchester. the uk is set to win a battle with spain to host a multi—billion pound electric car battery plant in somerset, the bbc understands. the boss of jaguar land rover—owner tata is expected to fly to london next week to finalise the deal. up to 9,000 jobs would be created at the bridgwater site, close to the m5. our business editor, simonjack, is here. what more do we know? as you say, there has been a very tense negotiation between the uk and spain and i have learned that the negotiation has now moved to the drafting of press releases, the choreography of how this landmark deal will be announced. the boss of

tata, owner ofjaguar deal will be announced. the boss of tata, owner of jaguar land deal will be announced. the boss of tata, owner ofjaguar land rover, expected to fly to meet the prime minister the chancellor and others next week and this will be presented as a big win for the government which has come underfire as a big win for the government which has come under fire for not being at the races when it comes to battery production, falling behind eu and the us, it hasn't come cheap, subsidies of up to £500 million of being offered to the tata owner plus more than 300 million for their steel operations here, but reflective of what is going on in the world, there is a global subsidy war between the eu, the us, which is offering hundreds of billions of pounds, reflective of that war, it is not a silver bullet, this will help jaguar land rover�*s problem, more capacity will be needed but some in the industry are saying that if this deal closes as expected, it will be the most significant development in the auto sector since nissan arrived in the 1980s. the prime minister has decided the home secretary did not breach ministerial rules over the way

she handled a speeding offence last year. suella braverman has been criticised for asking civil servants to help arrange a private speed awareness course. rishi sunak, who consulted his ethics adviser, says ms braverman could have followed a better course of action, but that he won't order a formal investigation. the prime minister has decided the home secretary did not breach the independent covid inquiry has warned the government that it could face criminal sanctions unless it's face criminal sanctions unless its hands over full diaries belonging to borisjohnson. separately, the former prime minister has dismissed the government lawyers who were representing him at the inquiry. he is angry that cabinet office has passed information to the police about further possible lockdown breaches, which he strongly denies. we can now speak to our political editor chris mason, who is at westminster. just explain the significance of this? explosion of news today _ significance of this? explosion of news today about _ significance of this? explosion of news today about boris - significance of this? explosion of news today about boris johnson, reeta, but it is actually about something bigger and more important, to what extent do we ever get to the whole truth about what was going on in government during the pandemic?

so, there is this row between the covid inquiry and the government about whether or not full messages, whatsapp and other exchanges, should be disclosed to the inquiry, or should they be a black market pen put through various ones of them so that they cannot be properly ready, to use the jargon of westminster, reductions. those in government to make the argument that some messages are unambiguously irrelevant and they should be blacked out, but the covid support groups and victims' groups say that that would be outrageous, and that would amount to a cover—up. then there is the whole question of borisjohnson�*s lawyers, paid for by the taxpayer, you will have heard perhaps in the last 24 hours that information has found its way to the police, being looked into ljy way to the police, being looked into by the police, about whether there were further hauled breaks by boris johnson when he was prime minister, something he denies, he is now trying to find new lawyers, lawyers that will still be paid for by the

taxpayer. reeta, this isjust the beginning of the argument over reputation, accountability and, yes, truth, around covid.— truth, around covid. chris mason, thank ou truth, around covid. chris mason, thank you very — truth, around covid. chris mason, thank you very much. _ our top story this evening... and south wales police give more details about events leading to the deaths of two boys in cardiff, but their account raises fresh questions. still to come... king charles and queen camilla make their coming up on bbc news, mark cavendish misses out on a sprint stage win in his first attempt since announcing his retirement, but geraint thomas retains his overall lead after stage 17 of the giro d'italia. a paralysed man has been able to walk simply by thinking about it thanks to electronic brain implants, a medical first he says has changed his life. a medical first he says gert—jan oskam, a 40—year—old dutch

man, was paralysed in a cycling accident 12 years ago. the electronic implants wirelessly transmit his thoughts to his legs and feet via a second implant on his spine. our science correspondent pallab ghosh has more. gert—jan oskam 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 brain implants have changed everything. i am in full control of auto stimulation. and that gives me a lot of freedom which i didn't have with previous therapy. gert—jan is unable to walk because his accident damaged nerves in his spine and reduces signals from his brain to his legs. the spinal implant amplifies those signals. and two implants just above his

brain capture his thoughts, and a computer sends them 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. it looks like it works! gert—jan is the latest of nine other patients that have been successfully treated. david and michelle, who we featured last year, can walk now because of their spinal implants. but gert—jan is the first to have the brain implants,

which gives him more control and makes his movements much easierfor him. 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 an experimental stage and used only for short periods, but researchers believe they can make further progress in the years to come. pallab ghosh, bbc news. police investigating the disappearance of madeleine mccann have continued their search at a reservoir in portugal. it has focused on a peninsula on the western side of the reservoir. the area is around 30 miles from where the three—year—old went missing in 2007. sophie, the duchess of edinburgh, has said she's "deeply saddened" by the death of a woman who was hit by a motorbike that was part of her police escort.

81—year—old helen holland's family say she died in hospital after suffering massive internal injuries in the collision in west london two weeks ago. the police watchdog is investigating what happened. jon donnison reports. helen holland had been visiting her sister in west london when she was hit by a police motorcycle escorting the duchess of edinburgh. in a statement, her family told us the incident left the 81—year—old with multiple broken bones and internal injuries and that after nearly two weeks fighting for her life, the irreversible damage to her brain had ended the battle. sophie, the duchess of edinburgh, seen here with her husband edward over the coronation weekend, is the king's sister—in—law. responding to the news today, buckingham palace said she was deeply saddened to hear of the death and said the duchess sent her deepest condolences and sympathies to all of ms holland's family. at the scene of the collision, a few flowers have been left.

there is a pelican crossing but it is a big, busy road, with fast—moving traffic. in a statement, the met said it passed on its condolences to helen holland's family and that what it called a tragic outcome was being felt by colleagues across the force. it also said that it was cooperating fully with the investigation being carried out by the independent office for police conduct. the iopc have said cctv and body—worn camera footage will be examined. they are in touch with helen holland's family, who say they are desperate for answers. jon donnison, bbc news. the bbc has obtained documents which shed more light on how a ten—month—old boy who was murdered by his parents had been returned to the couple more quickly than social workers had wanted. finley boden was killed on christmas day 2020, 39 days after he was returned to the full—time care of stephen boden and shannon marsden. our correspondent sanchia berg is here with more.

thanks, reeta. this is finley boden a few weeks before he died, a baby who liked to shout and blow raspberries, a "cuddly, chunky munchkin", his mother told a social worker. but last month shannon marsden and finley�*s father stephen boden the jury heard heard it was a family court who had sent finley back into his parents' care. thanks to the high court we now know how that decision was reached. one document we've obtained explains why finley was taken away from his parents days after he was born in february 2020. it says... "the parents' home was very unclean — at times hazardous with faeces on the floor." there were concerns about their cannabis use, too. finley�*s parents wanted to show social workers they could change

so they sent these pictures to their social worker in april showing rooms much cleaner and tidier than before with finley�*s cot waiting for him. covid lockdowns meant the social worker didn't come to the house. other documents show the parents impressed social workers once they could meet them and finley in person for short contact sessions. one social worker wrote that... on 1st october 2020 their case came back to the family court. covid affected this, too — the hearing took place entirely on the phone, before two magistrates. the local authority said finley should go back to his parents over a four—month period. the social worker from the independent court advisory

service cafcass disagreed. in court her barrister said finley should go back to his parents full—time "and that should happen within an eight—week period". the magistrates agreed and that's what happened. weeks after he was returned to his parents' sole care, finley was dead. after that, police took these photos of the parents' home once again dirty and squalid. finley�*s parents are due to be sentenced this friday. the king and queen are in northern ireland at the start of a two—day visit. they've been in newtownabbey, near belfast, where they opened a new garden to mark charles's coronation earlier this month. our ireland correspondent emma vardy sent this report. it's no secret king charles is fond of gardens, and this specially commissioned one — sparing nothing in ornate design — was opened today to celebrate the recent coronation. applause.

it's the king's first major engagement outside england since being crowned, and queen camilla accompanied him as the couple were greeted by schoolchildren. they also met privately with the senior police officer detective chief inspectorjohn caldwell, who was recently shot multiple times in an attack suspected to have been orchestrated by republican paramilitaries, the first time he's been seen in public since leaving hospital. and at the gardens, the royals shook hands with the sinn fein mpjohn finucane. the republican party has historically had no allegiance to the monarchy, but recently has attended more royal events, they say as a mark of neighbourly respect. music. this musical garden complete with singing shrubbery... music. ..was designed with a nod to the king's own passion for sustainability and the environment. well, this all feels rather alice in wonderland. you're greeted by some dancing trees, and then the centrepiece underneath the crown —

this giant spinning glitter ball. well, it's just brilliant. you know, it's such a big event, and it'sjust amazing that he's here and... what did he say? yeah, so he wants to know whether she sleeps all night. loved her onesie. what do you think of this design here? it's beautiful. the king and queen will continue their visit around northern ireland tomorrow, meeting community performers, but first no garden party is complete without cake. emma vardy, bbc news, newtonabbey. let's have a look at the weather. that you, good evening. mostly fine and settled weather at the moment, but in the sunshine in the south—east of wales today, we had 23 degrees, while on the east coast of england, the sun was also shining, but with the wind off the sea, just 14 degrees in some places. that will be the theme for the next few days, high pressure keeping it mostly fine and settled, but the winds flowing in a clockwise direction around the

high pressure, for some of us it will be coming in off what is still quite a chilly sea. tomorrow, for example, east coast of england, 14 degrees, with some shelter in south wales, highs of 22 are possible. right now we have got a band of cloud which will continue to work southwards through the night, but for the majority it is dry with some clear spells and after what has been a relatively warm day, we have had 20 degrees or more in parts of highland scotland, overnight tonight, the temperatures will drop down to freezing, only briefly. tomorrow we will have some of the best of the sunshine i think across the north and the west of scotland although it will be quite windy in the far north. for northern ireland, england and wales, some cloud at times, equally some sunny spells, but as i have already mentioned, the highest temperatures will be where we have some shelter from the wind, south wales and south—west england. on friday and at the weekend, the

high pressure hose eastwards, the
