of serious debate about health and social care long—term. the government has a social care paper coming out in the summer which is being run byjeremy hunt with his new departmentepartment of health and social care as it is branded. there is a lot of very important debate taking place but it does not deal with the short—term needs of the nhs, which are still under extreme pressure thank you. the prosecution in the trial of a man accused of the finsbury park mosque attack has alleged that he received a message on twitter from a leader of the far—right group britain first. darren osborne is accused of deliberately driving a van into worshippers lastjune, killing one person. he denies murder and attempted murder. daniel sandford is at woolwich crown court. daniel, tell us more about what was said in court? much of this morning was taken up looking at what darren osborne had been doing on the internet in the two weeks before the attack. he appears to have joined twitter about two weeks before the attack, some evidence suggests that. on that date he receives a direct message from jade fransson, he receives a direct message from jade fra nsson, the he receives a dire

health and social care. i am pleased that we recognized this by making the department of health into the department of health and social care. k,at has been recognized by hu who said that this is a welcome and long overdue recognition of the independence of health and social care. -- of the interdependence of health and social care. they have been working with gps, working with care homes and the sector to ensure that the elderly can stay at home safely without coming into hospitals with all of the consequences of them coming into bed. that's the way forward. that's what we want to do -- ensuring that we are seeing that integration at the grassroots level. the way the right honorable gentleman talks, you would think that the labour party had all of the solutions for the health service. if thelabour party -- labour party had gotten all the answers, why do we see funding being cut and targets not being met in wales, where the labour party is responsible? speaker, the prime minister leads a government that is responsible for the funding of natural government -- of national government, such as in wales. she know

also, to hear him say today, when asked about his new job title, the department of health and social carehat was just a change of branding and stationary, or did it mean anything? he was quite clear that it meant that he would be leading on the green paper. pressed on that, he also said that he didn't think it made sense to consider social care in isolation. that is encouraging. at the moment, the green paper is set to look just at social care for older adults. everybody that looks at that, and notjust older adults, look at working age adults that need social care, look up the nhs and at prevention and public health in the workforce. let's bring all of these ci’oss workforce. let's bring all of these cross system issues together. not just now, but in the long—term as. let's explain to the public how that needs to be funded. the other option is that we continue as we are, with small increases of just is that we continue as we are, with small increases ofjust over 1% a year, which is not keeping up with the extraordinary increase in demand and costs. so, there is a gap emerging. there is no

service when it comes to oral health because unlike wales and scotland there is no dedicated national programme to tackle the problem. the department of health and social caredren in england visited a dentist last year and it is introducing a sugar tax to tackle tooth decay. we can talk to claire stevens, president of the british society of paediatric dentistry. good morning. anyone who hears these figures should be shocked, 43,002 operations on teenagers and children. 170 day. why is this situation at this point, and i presume it is worsening? the numbers of operations are going steadily up and have gone up by 15% in the last four years. the reason is not one single answer, it is about our children and young people, having it is about getting fluoride so parents and children need to brush their teeth with a fluoride toothpaste twice a day, in the morning and in the evening and it is getting children to see the dentist in the first place. they should certainly receive their dental check on their first birthday and every year thereafter. 14% of children in england and wales did not see a dentist last year. you are a dental surgeon. dentist last year. you are

of questions raised. in a moment, we'll have a word with our health editor, hugh pym, at the department of health and social carek to ed thomas, whose report we've just seen. staff remarkably candid about the immense challenges they are facing. what the impressions you took away? yes, that is right, it was incredibly difficult to get into that hospital to tell that story. but once we did, we were struck by how open and frank and honest nurses, consultants, health co nsulta nts nurses, consultants, health consultants were, they wanted to tell their story. the stories you just heard tonight, they were just a snapshot of a particular moment inside the hospital. they were representative of our time there. people who are tired and frustrated. and importantly, the pictures you have just been watching, the ambulances outside a&e, the patients queueing up in the corridors, they match what clinicians have told us up match what clinicians have told us up and down the country this winter. but the one thing to take away from all of this was how incredibly hard the nurses and doctors were working inside that hospital to keep

office has been looking at in working with the relevant government departments, now the department of health and social care to find a resolution to this issue which i know is a concern. that's why there has been measures taken to defer the aspects of this but we continue to work on this and i'm happy to look into it. >> thank you, mr. speaker. no one has been charged with -- having been anally penetrated in the hours before death. poppy was not noted social services despite a staggeringly troubled family history. so will she agree to a cross party calls for a public inquiry so we can learn the lessons from this and make children safer across the country? >> i think the honorable jeremy and i think this is a case that a shocked and appalled everybody around the country when they had seen the horrific abuse that was carried out and obviously the tragic circumstances of poppies death. i'm sure everybody will join me in offering our condolences. as i understand it the prosecutions of has announced it is considering the corners decision, and i think what is right is we actually allow the process to continue to

a spokesperson for the department of health and social care said: joining us now from our westminsterme in five years the number quitting the profession is higher than the number that joined. quitting the profession is higher than the number thatjoined. how would you'd turn this around? these are staggering figures and the issue we've got nurses who feel they have no option but to leave the profession they love because of the problems in the nhs. what would we do? we would get rid of this unfair pay gap which has meant nurses have seen 1a% of their wages lost in the last eight years, to train more nurses and bring back the bursary, this government got rid of the bursary, which means those who do train to become a nurse will leave the profession with thousands upon thousands of pounds worth of debt. that puts people off. we also need to deal with the wider issues, the fa ct to deal with the wider issues, the fact that eight years of underfunding of our nhs, the loss of 1a,000 beds, there is real pressures on the front line. we are making conditions intolerable furnaces and wider clinic

i asked my wife linda to work with a group of doctors, nurses, tribal health care workers, social workers and department of health officials to understand the causes of this problem. in their research, they found that deciding against early elective deliveries, abstaining from tobacco, learning safe sleep practices and receiving prenatal care are critical to an infant's well-being. if you know linda, you know she's someone who gets things done. once the task force identified the problems, she began to work towards solutions. she joined the former first lady of north dakota, betsy daland checking this off the list linda moved on to something tougher, tobacco use. she worked with the department of health to redouble efforts to reach more pregnant moms with resources like the 24/7 quit line and the new data looks promising. since 2011, we've seen smoking during pregnancy decline by 19.5%. linda has also traveled the state to promote safe sleep practices. thanks to her, even i know the abcs of safe sleep. infants need to be alone, on their backs in a crib. she's gained donations for cribs for kids, a progra
