we live in is in boulder we will be a assessing what this result means notjust here in turkey but around the (os live head) britain's biggest police force, the met, says it will no longer attend emergency calls involving mental heath issues unless there's a risk to life. we'll speak live to a former inspector of constabulary, who now chairs an nhs mental health trust. the head of ukraine's military intelligence has promised a "swift and starkly visible" response to russia's daytime missile attack on central kyiv. and chelsea have a new manager. mauricio pochetino is finally appointed — we'll have reaction. hello, i'm matthew amroliwala, welcome to verified live, three hours of breaking stories and checking out the truth behind them. turkey's president erdogan has secured another five years in power after winning the run—off ballot in the country's presidential election. these were some of the celebrations on the streets of istanbul as erdogan celebrated with his supporters after winning around 52% of the vote.
5:01 pm
the 69—year—old will now serve another five years in office, potentially stretching his time in power to a quarter century. meanwhile, his opponent, kemal kilicdaroglu, said it was "the most unfair election in years" and that he felt saddened by the "troubles" awaiting turkey. live now to anna foster in istanbul: anna, in terms of unifying the country, does the president even want to? ~ ~ . v country, does the president even want to? ~ ~ ., �*, ., , want to? well i think that's a very aood want to? well i think that's a very good question. — want to? well i think that's a very good question, matthew- want to? well i think that's a very good question, matthew and - want to? well i think that's a very good question, matthew and i - good question, matthew and i think that's one that's quite difficult to answer at the moment. because when he made a speech yesterday evening you saw some of the pictures of the celebration on the street here in turkey last night. he talked about being a president for everybody in this country, notjust those who voted for him. then, he went on to be dispirited about the kurdish people, a huge part of the population here in turkey, he made
5:02 pm
crude remarks about the lgbt q crude remarks about the lgbt 0 population. so what he said and what he did were actually polar opposites to each other. so i think that really does raise questions about whether he does want to try and unify this divided country. and the divide is deep. of course that margin was very narrow, 52% of people voted for presidentjuan. but remember, of course, there are the 48% who woke up this morning, and they have no representation. and the strength of feeling was such that all of these different opposition groups, all of these different parties, many of whom have different policies, different priorities, different visions for the future of turkey, for the first time they coalesced around a single candidate. i think a lot of people here, they think that might be a moment that may never be repeated, but it was a once—in—a—lifetime opportunity and it is one that fell short. i talked about there's a little early about theirs with the professor of political science here in istanbul, and he talked particularly about the opposition and what they do next.
5:03 pm
that's actually quite a high possibility i think at some point. if he actually wants to throw his hat in the ring he actually has a strong chance of becoming the leader of the main opposition party and quite possibly could challenge them directly. , if the main opposition party had chosen him as itsjoint candidates, together with a number of opposition parties that are part of opposition parties that are part of the alliance, i think he would have received a much better result and this presidential election. but i think that chance was missed. anna, let's turn to the economy. is it clear to you the president has any sort of plan of how he tackles 40% plus inflation there in the country? 4096 plus inflation there in the count ? ~ , , country? well, he seems quite confident in _ country? well, he seems quite confident in the _ country? well, he seems quite confident in the way _ country? well, he seems quite confident in the way that - country? well, he seems quite confident in the way that he i country? well, he seems quite | confident in the way that he has been dealing with things already. he has faith in low interest rates, he thinks that will eventually do with
5:04 pm
inflation. but our economy actually think that his financial management in the country has taken those problems, take in the financial crisis, taken the spiralling inflation, and made things even worse. they think that his choices have deepened an already critical situation. now it's also worth saying as well but the people that disagreed with him and the administration haven't lasted very long when it has come to that economic course that he has been charting. again, there is every chance that because he has won reelection here, because he got 52% of the vote, he will see that as an endorsement from the turkish people of the plan that he has already been executing. he talked about the economy. he referred to in her speech. he told the people in turkey that he would bring it under control, but really no detail about whether or not he will bring in a different plan and trying to do that. �* ., .,, different plan and trying to do that. �* ., , ., , that. anna foster, live in istanbul. thanks. thank _ that. anna foster, live in istanbul. thanks. thank you. _ that. anna foster, live in istanbul. thanks. thank you. now— that. anna foster, live in istanbul. thanks. thank you. now let's - that. anna foster, live in istanbul. thanks. thank you. now let's turn| that. anna foster, live in istanbul. l thanks. thank you. now let's turn to important story here in the uk. the biggest police force in the uk —
5:05 pm
london's metropolitan police — says it will stop attending mental health incidents later this year in a bid to free—up officers and resources. officers currently respond to several hundred calls of this nature each month, but will now only attend where there's perceived to be an "immediate threat to life". our home affairs editor mark easton has more. it's actually been a very long concern of senior officers going right back to the age of austerity. i remember people were asking, you know, what are the police for? that means that they're being asked to to take on a lot of the responsibilities that had previously
5:06 pm
some of the work suggest that the work going across the country in mental health is the equivalent capacity that could deal with 500,000 victims of domestic violence. the suggestion that officers will refuse to attend many calls relating to psychological crisis has alarmed a former inspector we'll speak live to a former inspector of constabulary, so so i'm alarmed. i want to see how this works. the model for what scotland yard is proposing is the right care right person scheme, adopted by police in humberside in 2020 in which officers do not attend a call if a mental health professional would be more appropriate. i professional would be more appmpriate-_ professional would be more auroriate. . ., , professional would be more a-ro-riate. ., ., , ., appropriate. i am not persuaded that this is the entirely _ appropriate. i am not persuaded that this is the entirely correct _ this is the entirely correct approach. what we know is that it is best for individuals and patients if

5:08 pm
created if the police are indeed to step away from attending calls for people who are in mental health crisis. at the beginning, of a call where perhaps for the first time a loved one or a relative has gone into mental health crisis, it's very difficult tojudge into mental health crisis, it's very difficult to judge what the likely outcome is and whether or not there is a threat to life. that's why the police to attend. they are the first responders and their situation. and they have been for the last 14 years. this is nothing new. but i do have massive sympathy for the metropolitan police, and health services do need to be funded and resourced so that when the police do find individuals and take them to a place of safety in the nhs, there are doctors and there are nurses available to care for them in the right setting-— available to care for them in the right setting.- so _ available to care for them in the right setting. yes. so it is a dilemma, but _ right setting. yes. so it is a dilemma, but it _ right setting. yes. so it is a dilemma, but it does - right setting. yes. so it is a dilemma, but it does need to be resolved through talking to each other and partnership rather than ultimatums. find other and partnership rather than ultimatum-—
5:09 pm
ultimatums. and you think that's what they say — ultimatums. and you think that's what they say is, _ ultimatums. and you think that's what they say is, do _ ultimatums. and you think that's what they say is, do you? - ultimatums. and you think that's i what they say is, do you? because are the police wrong to say that this is an absorbing increasing amounts of police time, not their priority, which is tackling crime? it's always been police as priority to protect us at the time of our greatest need, when we are most vulnerable, whether that is because we are at the victim of crime, and a road traffic accident, whether our child has gone missing somewhere. the police have always been there for us and they have turned out, and not exactly the same in mental health. but i do think that there is more that needs to be done to make sure that the police and mental health nurses, for example, as we heard, respond together so that the priority is taken away from the police. once that person has been identified, and assessment made on whether or not they are safe themselves or whether they need to be taken to a mental health setting where they can be looked after and treated. at that point, really, there is no argument at all. the
5:10 pm
police should not be sitting for hours and hours with service users or patients an accident and emergency waiting for that facility to come available, but the mental health service and wales is absolutely filled to bursting in terms of being able to provide services to people with mental health. it really does need to be properly resourced. let health. it really does need to be properly resourced.— health. it really does need to be properly resourced. let me ask you two final questions, _ properly resourced. let me ask you two final questions, because - properly resourced. let me ask you two final questions, because we . properly resourced. let me ask you l two final questions, because we have the definition they are from the police saying they will only deal with situations where there is an immediate threat to life. do you fear that it will be left front line police officers to try to work out what is a very difficultjudgment to actually make? i do what is a very difficult 'udgment to actually makevh what is a very difficult 'udgment to actually makeah what is a very difficult 'udgment to actually match actually make? i do think it will be really hard- _ actually make? i do think it will be really hard- if _ actually make? i do think it will be really hard. if you _ actually make? i do think it will be really hard. if you think _ actually make? i do think it will be really hard. if you think about - really hard. if you think about people and police control centres, those that answer our 999 calls, you can imagine the calls that will be coming in. they will be distraught relatives, anxious friends, they
5:11 pm
won't be able to make an assessment. either the friends them selves or the court handlers whether it's life or limb. and therefore i think there's a real danger that people who are in mental health crisis who are particularly vulnerable and won't receive the service they actually need. and the other problem of course matthew with this announcement today by the metropolitan police is come the end of august i think people across london will be wondering, well who honours do we call and the only number they know to call is 999? enter date that has been a number that has at least meant a police officer who will or been trained in mental health crisis situations turns up quickly and does all they possibly can to help that person in their hour of need. you possibly can to help that person in their hour of need.— possibly can to help that person in their hour of need. you lead me to m final their hour of need. you lead me to my final question, _ their hour of need. you lead me to my final question, which _ their hour of need. you lead me to my final question, which is - their hour of need. you lead me to my final question, which is would i my final question, which is would you appeal to the met commissioner to think again on there's, certainly about the timeframe, at least, and if the answer to that says no, he won't, what do you think of the
5:12 pm
likely consequences? i won't, what do you think of the likely consequences?— won't, what do you think of the likely consequences? i know mark rile . i likely consequences? i know mark riley- l have _ likely consequences? i know mark riley. i have worked _ likely consequences? i know mark riley. i have worked with - likely consequences? i know mark riley. i have worked with him - likely consequences? i know mark riley. i have worked with him in i likely consequences? i know mark i riley. i have worked with him in the past. he's really sensible. he's got the best interest of london, it's absolutely heart. i expect the announcement today, has many reasons behind it which i won't speculate on, but one of which is that the public are talking about the need for there to be excellent mental health provision in london and i really hope that all of the partners, the help service, the police social care, sector and government will get around the table and sort the situation out. we government will get around the table and sort the situation out.— and sort the situation out. we will leave it there, _ and sort the situation out. we will leave it there, but _ and sort the situation out. we will leave it there, but a _ and sort the situation out. we will leave it there, but a really - leave it there, but a really important story and important to get your thoughts. thanks so much for joining us live here on the programme. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. grace spoke to me just moments before serving her customers
5:13 pm
for the last time. she had to shut another venue last year, and now it's time for her to close this one. it's a really, really emotional day. the restaurant's been open forfour and a half years, but i've been running spice box as a street food business before that. so it's about seven years of hard work. and, yeah, it's sad. as food and utility prices rose and customer numbers fell, it became too difficult to stay open. people are struggling and there's less money to go around. and obviously, eating out is a luxury. but grace's story reflects many others in the capital, particularly in central london, where more than 500 venues have closed in the last three years. back in walthamstow, grace will now be selling her food to shops — one way to keep her brand alive at a time when it wasn't possible to keep her restaurants open. you're live with bbc news.
5:14 pm
let's turn to the situation in ukraine. russia has mounted an unusual series of daytime strikes on the centre of the ukrainian capital kyiv, but the city's military administration says all were shot down and no targets were hit. this was the scene in the capital as that attack took place, people rushing to take cover, as explosions were heard in the sky above. this was last night. ukrainian military officials say that 66 out of roughly 75 cruise missiles and drones were intercepted. the latest bombardment was the 15th air attack on the capital this month alone. meanwhile, the governor of russia's belgorod region, which borders eastern ukraine, says ukraine's armed forces have been shelling several of its settlements. the governor said an industrial facility was hit in shebekino, wounding four people. our diplomatic correspondent
5:15 pm
james landale is in kyiv. james, in terms of those strikes on the capital, we have seen a real uptick in the number of attacks that have been waged in this last month. just give us a sense of what the last 24 hours have been like. well, in some respects, _ last 24 hours have been like. well, in some respects, some _ last 24 hours have been like. well, in some respects, some of- last 24 hours have been like. well, in some respects, some of it - in some respects, some of it was very familiar. others, far less familiar. like so many people in kyiv, the night was broken by air raids, sounds of explosions, in the sky. as yet another air strike landed. it was targeted at key. as you say this is the 15th, 16th time this has happened this month. so clearly, russia targeting the capital more than it has done in recent months. but then again, this morning something unusual. two things, really. one was daytime strikes, but also strikes that seem to be centred, targeted more on the centre of the city. normally a lot of the strikes hop into our horizon.
5:16 pm
we can see them on the distance, on the outskirts, may be industrial sites, critical infrastructure, maybe some of the air defence aren't stores themselves. but we saw some of these missiles come straight over the top of us here. far closer to the top of us here. far closer to the centre of town. as you say, the ukrainian authorities say that all of those 11 crews and ballistic missiles were taken out of the sky, they were destroyed. but that doesn't mean there's no damage, because when these things are destroyed there's a lot of debris, that falls from the sky, damages buildings. it can injure people if they are underneath it. they can cause fire because a lot of the missile, its flaming when it lands. so it's not something that not entirely safe, but it avoids a worse evil, if you like.— evil, if you like. james, head of ukraine's _ evil, if you like. james, head of ukraine's military _ evil, if you like. james, head of ukraine's military intelligence, | evil, if you like. james, head of| ukraine's military intelligence, it said there would be her swift and visible response. what is he hunting at? �* . ,

5:18 pm
order, striking where they can ahead of that potential counteroffensive. we don't know when it's going to come. ukrainian officials will not say. but they all are using rhetoric suggesting that it is coming sooner rather than later.— suggesting that it is coming sooner rather than later. james landau they are in kyiv- — rather than later. james landau they are in kyiv. thanks _ rather than later. james landau they are in kyiv. thanks for _ rather than later. james landau they are in kyiv. thanks for taking - rather than later. james landau they are in kyiv. thanks for taking us - are in kyiv. thanks for taking us through all of that. now let's turn to sport. chelsea have announced that mauricio pochettino will become their new head coach. the argentine will begin his new role injuly on an initial two—year contract. pochettino returns to the premier league after previously managing tottenham hotspur for five years. he was most recently at psg. let's get more on this now with former chelsea winger pat nevin and martin lipton, chief sports reporter at the sun newspaper. thanks both of you for being here on the programme. i will start with the same question to both, because we have talked about and anticipated
5:19 pm

5:22 pm
club, what is your assessment�*s i’iiii club, what is your assessment's i�*ll be keen to see influx. i think that's the best you can say about it. look, they have sanctions, they changed ownership, and while they changed ownership, and while they change their ownership they also change their ownership they also change their ownership they also change the upper structure of the entire club. that's the business side of it. that's also the player acquisition side of it as well. so a massive amount of change was made, they change their manager as well, it's very difficult. if you look at being successful, for quite some time, they know exactly what, they've got good players that know how to work with each other. none of those things chelsea of hard. so it's a state of flux. the trouble with that is, even you'll think there is sure, who will he keep? the attacking players, i don't know. i
5:23 pm
