12:30 pm
we start in the us, where later today the house of representatives will vote on a controversial deal to raise the us debt ceiling. the deal was hammered out over the weekend with republicans agreeing to increase the amount of money the government can borrow in return for cuts to federal spending. president biden and the house speaker, kevin mccarthy, are trying to convince their own parties to support the bill, but several republicans on the right say they gave up too much. if the bill isn't approved by next monday, the united states risks defaulting on its debt. live now to new york with cbs correspondentjared hill. thanks forjoining us. why has it taken so long to get to this point? what does this deal actually consist of? ., , ., , ., , what does this deal actually consist of? ., , . ,., , ., what does this deal actually consist of? ., , ., ,., , .,, ., ~ of? one of the big reasons has taken this lona to of? one of the big reasons has taken this long to get _ of? one of the big reasons has taken this long to get to _ of? one of the big reasons has taken this long to get to this _ of? one of the big reasons has taken this long to get to this point - of? one of the big reasons has taken this long to get to this point is - this long to get to this point is because there is a difference in the negotiation ideas and tactics. on
12:31 pm
one hand you had democrats and president biden�*s singh raise the debt ceiling without adding any caveats, without any spending cuts, just do a clean raise, but republicans were pushing for some spending cuts, and needed to find some sort of middle ground here and it seems as though they'd got to that point where it would raise the debt limit to 2025 which gets us to the next election cycle in exchange for cuts to things like tighter restrictions on some social safety net programmes like food stamps, allowing for more energy permitting which is something we've seen republicans really being pushed for here. 50 republicans really being pushed for here. , �* ., here. so president biden and kevin mccarth , here. so president biden and kevin mccarthy. the _ here. so president biden and kevin mccarthy, the speaker _ here. so president biden and kevin mccarthy, the speaker of _ here. so president biden and kevin mccarthy, the speaker of the - here. so president biden and kevin i mccarthy, the speaker of the house, now have to sell this deal. how will they go about doing that? and how will they stay unified? fine they go about doing that? and how will they stay unified?— will they stay unified? one of the bi thins will they stay unified? one of the big things we _ will they stay unified? one of the big things we have _ will they stay unified? one of the big things we have seen - will they stay unified? one of the big things we have seen from - will they stay unified? one of the. big things we have seen from both sides is really harbouring on the fact that if this does not happen quickly then we could potentially run into default which would be catastrophic when it comes to not just the usa but the global economy.
12:32 pm
on top of that, they are really trying to appeal to members of the middle of both of these parties to say let's get this thing done, no one is going to win here, but everyone will lose if it doesn't pass. everyone will lose if it doesn't ass. ., ., ., ~ , pass. how have the markets resnonded. _ pass. how have the markets responded, the _ pass. how have the markets responded, the prospect - pass. how have the markets responded, the prospect ofl pass. how have the markets i responded, the prospect of this pass. how have the markets - responded, the prospect of this deal being voted through? yes. responded, the prospect of this deal being voted through?— being voted through? yes, all of this happened — being voted through? yes, all of this happened over— being voted through? yes, all of this happened over the - being voted through? yes, all of this happened over the holiday l being voted through? yes, all of - this happened over the holiday week in the usa so it's been a bit quiet initially yesterday. we saw markets were still a bit timid waiting to see exactly what happens but they will open up in about two hours in the usa so we have to see, but as of now, it seems like the markets have been just watching to see whether or not this actually does end up going through because there are still some of these questions of whether they will be enough republicans in particular who will sign on. thank ou ve particular who will sign on. thank you very much. — particular who will sign on. thank you very much, an _ particular who will sign on. thank you very much, an early - particular who will sign on. thank you very much, an early start - particular who will sign on. thank you very much, an early start for| you very much, an early start for you, but we will be watching it here on bbc news. thank you very much. let's stay in the us where the republican governor of florida, ron desantis, has taken his campaign to win his party's presidential
12:33 pm
nomination to iowa. it's a key date because of the early timing of its vote in the nomination process. in his first big rally since confirming he was running for the white house, mr desantis took aim at president biden's record on crime and the economy. one of the pioneers of artificial intelligence says he would have prioritised safety over usefulness, had he realised the pace at which the technology would evolve. computer scientist, professor yoshua bengio has called for greater regulation and urged caution about the future risks of ai. his comments come after experts warned that the technology could lead to the extinction of humanity. this is what professor bengio had to say in an interview with the bbc. i and others believe it will be possible to build very safe ais, but that recipe could also be used to create dangerous ai — dangerous in the sense
12:34 pm
that they could act in the world in ways that could be nefarious, and that, you know, they wouldn't have this safety, that they could act for themselves rather than for our needs. and now the bad actors come in, because, you know, it might be military, it might be terrorist, it might be somebody very angry, psychotic, whatever, and so if it's easy to programme these ai systems to ask them to do something very bad, this could be very dangerous, if they are smarter than us, because then it's hard for us to stop these systems or to prevent damage. live now to manchester and we are nowjoined applied futurist, tom cheesewright. we will get yourjob title in just a second if that's all right, but the

12:36 pm
domestic computer, the technology behind it is largely open source and accessible to many, and is already in the wild, you can't sort of shut pandora's box if you like, it's out there. so regulation will be an entirely new thing, not like any regulation we've had in the past certainly, it's going to have to be much more comprehensive and i think there is a risk that in trying to regulate this completely we perhaps infringe on some other rights and create new risks. hour infringe on some other rights and create new risks.— infringe on some other rights and create new risks. ., . _ , create new risks. how much sympathy do ou create new risks. how much sympathy do you have — create new risks. how much sympathy do you have for _ create new risks. how much sympathy do you have for the _ create new risks. how much sympathy do you have for the professor- create new risks. how much sympathy do you have for the professor who - do you have for the professor who told the bbc he feels lost over his lights work? i told the bbc he feels lost over his lights work?— told the bbc he feels lost over his liuhts work? . _ , lights work? i have some sympathy absolutel . lights work? i have some sympathy absolutely- i— lights work? i have some sympathy absolutely. i think _ lights work? i have some sympathy absolutely. i think it's _ lights work? i have some sympathy absolutely. i think it's always - lights work? i have some sympathy absolutely. i think it's always best. absolutely. i think it's always best to have these conversations early. that risk does exist. is it urgent? is it on the same scale as climate change? not right now, but we should be having those conversations now, starting those conversations now, and i think it is sad if he feels lost over his lights work because the progress in recent past has been

12:38 pm
in 2021 in a retrial that followed acquittals in 2013. the pair were convicted of training serbian death squads who committed crimes including murder and ethnic cleansing. live now to the hague and our correspondent anna holligan. why have these sentences been extended, anna?— why have these sentences been extended, anna? hugely significant decision today _ extended, anna? hugely significant decision today because _ extended, anna? hugely significant decision today because these - extended, anna? hugely significant decision today because these two . extended, anna? hugely significant i decision today because these two men tied the serbian state infrastructure to the ethnic cleansing of non—serbians during this conflict so if you see just here you can see in the background there is some mothers, one woman who lost her two children and her brothers in the massacre and she said this court has brought them justice today, she said it's a beautiful day, a beautiful day for justice, and that's what this court
12:39 pm
represents are so many. this is the final verdict, the final trial conducted by this court and these two men were operating under the former president slobodan milosevic in training these death squads, the red beret is, as they were known, and employing them to commit these atrocities. why where the sentences increased from 12 years to 15 years, because initially they were found guilty of committing these atrocities in one town. the appeals chamber here today decided that actually they were liable for crimes committed beyond this town so murder, persecution, forcible transfer, and deportation of non—serbians from numerous principalities and that's why these sentences have been increased. shale sentences have been increased. are the able sentences have been increased. are they able to appeal? they are both in their 70s. are they able to appeal this decision, anna? this was
12:40 pm
an a- eals appeal this decision, anna? this was an appeals verdict — appeal this decision, anna? this was an appeals verdict so _ appeal this decision, anna? this was an appeals verdict so no _ appeal this decision, anna? this was an appeals verdict so no it _ appeal this decision, anna? this was an appeals verdict so no it can't - appeal this decision, anna? this was an appeals verdict so no it can't be i an appeals verdict so no it can't be appealed. one of them was in court today, he is in his early 70s, both in the early 70s, the other was following from a detention unit here in the hague. one of the reasons why this is so significant, speaking to some of the survivors who made the journey to witness justice in action here in the hague, is because they say if the final piece of the puzzle. it means that there is a true account based on factual evidence of the serbian state involvement in these atrocities and that matters now, it mattered back then, and it matters most of all in then, and it matters most of all in the future, because in order to have a peaceful region they need to have a peaceful region they need to have a full and true account of what happened back then and there are many people here who believe that this can be the start of the healing process, which some people still haven't fully gone through, and yet there are others who i've just been speaking to, one mother who said we still have a problem in the balkans
12:41 pm
because people also found guilty by this court of ethnic cleansing, the former particular leaders of the bosnian serbians, also found guilty, ljy bosnian serbians, also found guilty, by this court of genocide, ethnic cleansing, they are seen by so many people still as war heroes and, until there is the political will to ensure that people believe in what really happened, they say back in the early 1990s, then the healing process cannot be fully done. anna, thank very much. _ process cannot be fully done. anna, thank very much. some _ process cannot be fully done. anna, thank very much. some news - process cannot be fully done. anna, thank very much. some news you i process cannot be fully done. anna, i thank very much. some news you are getting from berlin now as germany is telling russia to close for concerts on its outcome latest example which shows many countries have cut trade ties with russia in last year. some have dramatically increased their dealings with moscow. one of those is myanmar. the united nations says that russia has sent 400 million dollars' worth of military equipment to myanmar, since the junta seized power there two years ago. rebecca henschke gained exclusive
12:42 pm
access to an air force captain. he was involved in the transfer of advanced fighter jets from russia to myanmar. a myanmar militaryjet circles a primary school. when they think it's safe, they run. but the plane circles back. across myanmar, the military is carrying out increasingly deadly air strikes. on the ground they're struggling to suppress an armed uprising demanding democracy. so they've taken this war
12:43 pm
against their own people to the sky. they are under attack by revolutionary forces and they don't have enough men to fight back. so now the air force is very important to the military. what would the myanmar military strength be like without the air force? without the air force, it's very likely that the military will fall. before defecting, captain say, to an upgraded the capital's airport for the arrival of advanced fighter jets. we prepared for six su thirties. we built three open sheds. so far, two of the sukhoi thirties have arrived from russia. they're the most powerfuljets in the air force's arsenal. altogether, more than 50 people were sent to russia to get training to operate these jets.
12:44 pm
captain ung didn't want to be one of those pilots. after 18 years in the air force, he fled with his family across the border to thailand. i saw that they killed people. i don't like that wicked behavior. i didn't like their cruelty against the people whom they are meant to protect. in the air, this is how the resistance is trying to fight back. 25—year—old khin saine leads a group of female drone bombers. they adapt civilian drones to carry homemade bombs and rely on public donations to compare with the plane. donations. compare with the plane, our drone is like a sesame seed. if we fly high like 300 meters
12:45 pm
above, they don't even know that we are coming. so we can attack them effectively. and they are scared of drones. but the military is dominating the sky, carrying out devastating attacks on civilian targets, including schools and hospitals. rebecca henschke, bbc news. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news.
12:46 pm
you're live with bbc news. environmental campaigners are calling for limits on the use ofjet fuel made from animal by—products. the study from the environmental campaigners, transport & environment, says demand for the fuel is expected to triple by 2030. it has a lower carbon footprint because animal fats are considered a waste material in the uk and europe but campaigners warn there is not enough animal waste to go round. it's feared this could force other industries to use more palm oil, a huge generator
12:47 pm
of carbon emissions. our environment correspondent matt mcgrath has more. soaps, cosmetics and chemicals, but over the last two decades or so the use of animal fats as a biofuel as biodiesel has become very prevalent across the uk and in europe and in fact, the usage of that has doubled in the past decade as governments are cracked down on the use of fossil fuels are cracked down on the use of fossilfuels in are cracked down on the use of fossil fuels in transport. are cracked down on the use of fossilfuels in transport. now are cracked down on the use of fossil fuels in transport. now it's likely to go up even more according to the supporting transport and environment. it's likely to triple over the next couple of years because governments want airlines to stop using kerosene made from fossil fuels and to start using more sustainable aviation fuel. animal fats are considered a sustainable material because they are a waste material because they are a waste material and therefore they qualify as a basically carbon or lower
12:48 pm
carbon product so to see what is likely to happen over the next few years, they've commissioned a study which they say the use of this material will travel over the next seven years and this will cause major problems for industries including pet food manufacturers and animal feed including pet food manufacturers and animalfeed manufacturers including pet food manufacturers and animal feed manufacturers who at the moment use lots of these animal by—products to actually make their products, so the problem is these animal projects could be diverted from pet food intojet animal projects could be diverted from pet food into jet fuel and upward see the pet food manufacturers using alternatives and those alternatives would likely be palm oil, which as we know creates an awful lot of emissions because essentially it involves cutting down forests to grow, so there is a lot of concern about this, nobody intended the use of these animal fats to make the climate situation worse, but unfortunately, the way the legislation is that at the moment, that's exactly what will happen over the next couple of years unless some serious changes are made. ~ .,
12:49 pm
unless some serious changes are made. n , ., racism in policing has been one of the most damning issues in britain today. but now a police race action plan is itself facing allegations of discrimination from some people of colour who have worked on it. newsnight�*s uk editor sima kotecha reports. police officers have been bombarded by claims of racism in recent years. but now the very plan set up to tackle this is at the centre of fresh claims of racism. ijoined the programme to share my lived and professional experience as well as my knowledge and working in the police. the police race action plan, published last year, aims to build trust with black communities. one person who worked on the programme told us they had this experience. they want to remain anonymous because of their current role. i was treated differently to my white colleagues by a lack of support being offered when the workload increased. it was openly question if black people were even needed
12:50 pm
to work on the plan. i increasingly felt my voice and at times i lived and professional experience were being ignored. they're just one of several people of colour who've raised serious concerns about discrimination at the unit, with some saying that their experiences were belittled and ignored. we've also seen documentation outlining other complaints from people of colour with some raising serious questions about the credibility and the true intentions of the programme. but now a police race action plan is itself facing allegations the members that we've supported have outlined areas where they have been marginalised within the plan. they've been sidelined at times. they've almost been gaslit as well around some of the issues and almost saying that black people are sometimes the problem and that they are loud and challenging. the national police chief council's chair told us we will be issuing a refreshed plan that i am confident will deliver the change our workforce and the communities we serve, need and deserve. i'm not aware of any official
12:51 pm
complaints or allegations relating to racism. however, i'm deeply saddened to hear of the experiences expressed in this report. anyone who carries toxic attitudes be that racist, misogynist, homophobic or discriminatory does not belong in policing. these latest allegations paint a picture of a body beset by problems at a time when trust in policing amongst people of colour is a critical issue. the entire process left me completely disillusioned. black staff, were seen as troublemakers or difficult for providing a perspective from black people. the man behind a satirical twitter account which parodies the life of a conservative mp has, after much speculation, revealed himself. henry morris, who is not actually a tory mp but a personal trainerfrom wales, racked up almost 200,000 followers over four years

12:56 pm
introducing a bit more in the way of cloud. and cloud remaining along the east coast with some stubborn areas of cloud through the midlands down to the south—east of england but we will also see some holes develop in that. a keen breeze coming from the north sea across the south—east, southern areas in the english channel taking the edge off those temperatures. further west, some sunshine, temperatures responding accordingly and you can see 11 in lerwick under the cloud but in glasgow, 21l, possibly 26, 2i lerwick under the cloud but in glasgow, 21l, possibly 26, 21 in london, but it will feel cool and on the north sea coastline especially with the onshore flow. as we head overnight, if anything, the cloud will romp in from the north sea pushing west but in western areas, under clear skies, some pockets of mist forming. not a particular cold night under the cloud but 7—10 as an overnight low. a dull start to the day tomorrow with all the cloud
12:57 pm
around. still this keen breeze coming in from the north sea across the south—east and southern areas and a lot of dry weather as the cloud pushes back towards east coast where it will be cooler. tomorrow, temperatures down a touch but you can still see 22—23. on friday, a slight difference in the distribution of the cloud with perhaps brighter across eastern areas, certainly bright in the midlands but a bit more cloud across the far north of scotland and here we are looking at highs ii—is. the far north of scotland and here we are looking at highs 11—15. 20 may be 21. the weekend, though, is looking largely dry and sunny. at times, we will have some cloud around particularly in some eastern areas but for many of us, there will be a lot of warm sunshine around. temperatures not as high as the middle of this week, but we are looking at 22—23, 70 two fahrenheit.
