Our correspondent Adina Campbell has this report. And shejoins us now. What more can you tell us . We know antibiotics have completely revolutionised order in medicine, things like caesarean sections, cancer treatments and hip replacements are the chief medical officerfor england replacements are the chief medical officer for england has given a fresh warning saying there is a growing resistance to antibiotics that could lose lead to the so called medical apocalypse, bacteria is evolving, becoming harder to treat infections, a new class of antibiotics hasnt been developed since the 1980s and that is causing concern as well. Also we are overusing antibiotics, for example, one ad of every 3 4 prescriptions dont need prescriptions dont need prescriptions antibiotics, thats a responsibility we have to take, we spoke to Dame Sally Davis some moments ago. Im really worried, as our experts, that if we dont do things to control this, improve infection prevention, get new drugs, better diagnostics, we will risk losing antibiotics and be underpinned modern medicine, not just when we have infections but actually cancer treatments, transplantation, people with diabetes get more infections than others. And it really is a worry if we lose effective antibiotics. That was professor sally davis and to give you an idea how this impacts us, at the moment 700,000 people every day die from drug resistant infections such as tb, malaria, hiv but that could rise to 10 million every year by 2050 if we dont get on top of the problem, the uk government along with the Welcome Trust a Global Charity supporting research and science has organised a world meeting with leaders to discuss this issue and is as a new product project is announced, all of this hopefully helping us to get on top of the problem and making sure antibiotics stay as robust as possible. For now, thank you, a full discussion about antibiotics coming up. Annita is in the bbc newsroom with a summary of the rest of the days news. There are signs that the European Union will begin internal preparations on post brexit trade with the uk while refusing to discuss the issue with the British Government. The bbc has seen a draft document to be presented to the other 27 eu leaders next week suggesting they should discuss trade amongst themselves while eu officials prepare detailed plans. Our brussels reporter adam fleming joins us. Good. Should we look at this than anything more than the 27 being prepared for one possible scenario or should we look at it as a scenario, a carrot for the uk government . In eu land we can say typically its a bit of both, this isa typically its a bit of both, this is a draft document prepared by officials at the European Council which will be chewed over by ambassadors from the individual Member States to the eu at a meeting this evening. There will be another meeting of ministers next week, it could be tweaked yet again, finally put in front of prime ministers, president s and chancellors here in brussels when they meet on friday to discuss brexit. It could change again by then. The big thing as currently says, the eu is sticking to its timetable, in other words, the uk has two agree the divorce issue about citizens rights, money and the irish border before talks can move to trade, the future relationship and any kind of transition period, it says there should be a stock take down at the next eu summit which will be in the middle of december just next eu summit which will be in the middle of decemberjust before christmas, but it also says internally, the eus chief negotiator Michel Barnier and his officials, team, should start internal preparations for phase two of trade talks and the future relationship. Some people will say this is good news for the British Government because it shows the eu wa nts to government because it shows the eu wants to get a move on and talk about trade, other people who are being tough at of the progress and the process will say they are sticking to the rules which is theres got to be progress on divorce issues before you can talk about trade and use your diplomats making your point, the eu says administratively, bureaucratic, we we re administratively, bureaucratic, we were all was going to have to start doing this at some point. Adam, thank you. More than 30 people are now known to have died in wildfires sweeping through Northern California.

An nhs Mental Health trust has become the first in england to be put in special measures for a second time because of concerns over patient safety. Inspectors said services at the trust which covers norfolk and suffolk were on sale due to Staff Shortages and that it had failed to learn from patient deaths. Our Health Correspondent Sophie Hutchinson reports. Pippa is struggling to come to terms with her sons death last year. Henry was detained by police under the Mental Health act after he was found peering over a bridge. He was taken to hospital by the norfolk and suffolk Mental Health trust but discharged the next day when he said he was feeling better. Five days later henry hanged himself. Pippa says the hospital should have realised he was at risk. I feel i have been completely robbed of the future i had planned with my son. I will never attend his graduation from university, i will never attend a wedding or see him have grandchildren. The trust said it is sad when things go wrong and there will be an inquest. Hospital inspectors said they were concerned the trust was still not focused on learning from patient deaths. The number of serious incidents was higher. Staff shortages meant services were unsafe and some staff had caseloads of 60 to 70 patients. Some patients struggle to access crisis care. Last year when the trust was taken out of special measures, many patients and families warned it hadnt improved. Today questions are being asked about whether inspectors acted too hastily. We took the decision a year ago based on what we found at the time. What we saw then was it was a service that was improving and our anticipation and hope at that time was that it would continue to improve, so we are disappointed. In september, the trusts chief executive announced his retirement. The trust says it has now begun urgent work to address inspectors concerns. The head of the prison and Probation Service has admitted away a government scheme to support prisoners when they leave prison isnt working. It appears the scheme isnt working. It appears the scheme is keep telling people for to find help rather than providing it. President troubles expected to withdraw his backing for the agreement which restricts irans you to. Doesnt mean the us has withdrawn from the accord but it gives congress 60 days to decide whether to impose sanctions.

The 28 euros. Quite remarkable. Well have a summary of the news in about 30 minutes. Asummary of a summary of the sport now with holly hamilton. Holly, tips for an english man to take over at scotland . Sam allardyce, scotland . Sam alla rdyce, one scotland . Sam allardyce, one of the names bandied around for the big job for scotland, this comes as you say after Gordon Strachan departed, four days after scotland failed to qualify for the world cup, losing against slovenia. He has gone, that is thejob he had since against slovenia. He has gone, that is the job he had since the beginning of 2013, someone very popular, the players locked in, the media quite liked him, the fans tolerated him because the results werent reflective of what they were hoping for. So now the scottish fa is on the hunt for his successor, lets look at some of the favourites. The bookies have stopped taking bets on this man, david moyes, hes been looking for work since resigning as sunderland boss in may, malky mckay hu tu tu cardiff city into the premier league but was sacked and quite unimpressive at wigan before becoming the scottish fa performance direct and sam alla rdyce, fa performance direct and Sam Allardyce, is he the man for the job . A very impressive cv builder be some reservations about taking on someone some reservations about taking on someone who used to be the manager of england, might also mean a pick up big sam, who knows, but definitely want to look out for. And manchester united, one matter, asking premier League Players to donate 1 of their salary to charity, what sorts of projects with the go towards . Thats right, we are of course used to seeing players splashing the cash, maybe not so much used to seeing them as charitable, this has come from one matter who went over to visit the slums in mumbai, visiting hundreds of children there. I think this has inspired him to make a difference back home and the premier league. He has asked, juan mata, players to make a difference and he invited some of the children to old trafford, look at their faces, imagine what was going through their mind, to see old trafford, they got to have a look through the changing rooms, onto the pitch, its quite incredible for someone to give them a chance, and he wants to continue to give children like this a chance, donating 1 of his salary to the cause, the common goal, £700,000, urging other professional footballers to do the same, not only that, they went to see round old trafford, the nationalfootball museum, gave them a guided tour of his exhibition and showed some of the border grass he had taken during his visit, hopefully the idea of this is to inspire more players to get involved and i think that is whatjuan get involved and i think that is what juan mata get involved and i think that is whatjuan mata is open for. Get involved and i think that is what juan mata is open for. Sounds good. Finally, some cricket, fireworks and floodlights seem to be working in bringing crowds to t 20 cricket but theres been worries about people losing interest in the longerform of the about people losing interest in the longer form of the game, about people losing interest in the longerform of the game, what about people losing interest in the longer form of the game, what are the authorities doing . Reform in test cricket has been talked about for so long, but has taken a while for anyone to do anything about it, and even after excitement surrounding proposals to have two divisions at the start of last year, it did not get people to excited. News this morning that the icc has approved a test championship and a one Day International league is very exciting. It will mean that nine teams play six series of test matches over two years, culminating ina matches over two years, culminating in a World Test League championship final. A 13 team odi league will be used to qualify them for the world cup and then, this is the biggest restructure of the format since 1877. It is now dealing with the fa ct 1877. It is now dealing with the fact that for the First Time Since the 19th century, domestic cricket is now competing with International Cricket. For the players and the fa ns cricket. For the players and the fans it is definitely a good thing, it should make it more appealing to fa ns it should make it more appealing to fans and broadcasters and at the end of the day, it will answer the most basic question as to who is the best. The World Champions rather than the rankings, it is hoped it means more people watching. Only time will tell, we will see. Thank you very much. Englands chief medical officer has warned of a post antibiotic apocalypse as she issued a call to action urging Global Leaders to address the growing threat of antibiotic resistance. In 2013, professor sally davies said that it should rank alongside terrorism in the list of threats to the public. Why, three years later, has so little progress being made . She is still warning that modern medicine as we know it could become a thing of the past, with millions of people set to die in a generation from routine procedures and common infections. 25,000 people already die across europe each year due to drug resistant infections. Today, experts from around the world are discussing the crisis at a conference in berlin. Professor sally davies spoke to us from there earlier. Already, across europe, about 25,000 people die every year from Drug Resistance infections. Im really worried, as our experts, that if we do not do things to control this, improve infection prevention, get new drugs, better diagnostics, we will risk losing antibiotics. They underpin modern medicine. Not just when we have infections, but actually cancer treatments, transplantation, and people with diabetes, they get more infections than others. It really is a worry if we lose effective antibiotics. We need to stimulate better diagnostics, we need new antibiotics. We need better vaccines. We need a whole range of things to happen. The world is saying yes, we ought to do something, but not enough action. The conference, working with the Thai Government and ghanaian government, and the Welcome Trust, is about how we get tangible change on the ground, and make a difference. So, patients will not die in future. What we want is patients to recognise that if they have the flu, or a common cold virus, antibiotics are of no use. So you might feel rotten but the only a nswer you might feel rotten but the only answer is paracetamol and hot drinks. Please, if the doctor says that it drinks. Please, if the doctor says thatitis drinks. Please, if the doctor says that it is a virus, you do not need an antibiotic, listen to them and do not push them for something that is not push them for something that is not going to make a difference to you but could make it much more risky as medicine goes forward, for your children and your grandchildren. And with me here in the studio is doctor clare gerada, who as well as practicing as a gp is also the former chair of the Royal College of gps and a member of the British Medical Association council. We can also speak now to emily morris, who has contracted eight different superbugs and has been prescribed last resort antibiotics twice shes in our northampton studio for us. Shes in our northampton studio for us. And in worcester we have helen kilminster, who is a pharmacist working in general practice who is an antibiotic guardian an nhs initiative which means she actively works to prevent the over use of antibiotics. Clare, welcome. We are hearing things like an antibiotic apocalypse, the end of modern medicine as we know it. They sound like scary claims. I mean, Dame Sally Davies and unbelievably intelligent and very distinguished woman. If she says that, i think we need to stand up and listen. It is a serious threat, we already have antibiotic resistant tb and antibiotic resistant tb and antibiotic resistant tb and antibiotic resistant infections. I see it in my surgery. People with repeated courses for serious infections that do not get treated. I know you are going to interview someone. I know you are going to interview someone. It is a serious threat, on a par with terrorism and global warming. We are so used to antibiotics, theyve only been around for over 100 years just over 100 years, its like going to your cashpoint, putting your card in and there is no money. You expect money to come out because its in the bank but there is nothing there. This will happen with antibiotics. You take them and expect them to work but they wont. We all have a responsibility but actually, the uk is doing really well. Our patients are doing really well. I have a viral infection at the moment, antibiotics do not work on it. It is antibiotics do not work on it. It is a global problem. Its a european problem in the main because our european counterparts prescribed far more antibiotics than we do. You can get them over the counter. They are given out like smarties, im afraid. Patients expect them, they think their doctor is useless if they do not walk out with a prescription. Some patients have been born overseas and come and inspect antibiotics. We have all got to stand up and listen. Otherwise, your children and grandchildren cannot have them. Who is to blame, how did we get here . I think we became too complacent. When i started as a doctor 35 years ago, we would give them out all the time. A sore throat, here, have them. People got better very quickly, and we inherited them from a generation who would have died from infections, so they marvelled at these treatments and we gave them out. We started doing the research and finding out how wasteful we work, including inventory medicine, farming, and we are now getting a grip and im proud to say that gps prescribed 11 less in antibiotics than previously. We are doing the right thing but please, we need to sally to shake the world up because otherwise your children will not benefit from the same protections. They are simple operations you wont have. I had an operations you wont have. I had an operation on my foot, i would not have had it if i could not have had an antibiotic preoperatively as a prevention. Its very straightforward. A boil. How many people have had boils . Hip replacements, simple surgery, ca esa rea n replacements, simple surgery, caesarean sections, chemotherapy, transplants. And if that resista nce transplants. And if that resistance continues, people could potentially die . They will not have the treatment in the first place, you cannot have chemotherapy without antibiotics or a transplant, but you will also died from simple procedures. We are not going to be scaremongering, the victorians did not wash their hands, we now know about that and using antiseptics but nevertheless, he will die from simple procedures. Now, you dont die at all. Ladies and gentlemen, this is serious. This is something we can all take responsibility for. I have antibiotics with me. They only work in certain circumstances. They do not work for the common cold and sore throats. That is a viral infection, that is different. Let me bring in mla. Let me bring in mla. You have been nodding at what claire has been saying. What happened to you, you have first hand experience of antibiotic resistance . Since ive been little, ive needed antibiotics due to a lot of youre in tract infections, kidney infections. Urine infections. I had a lot of pain and i had infections which would develop into superbugs, so i had last line antibiotics a number of times. I completely agree with everything that wasjust said. Completely agree with everything that was just said. Doctors are definitely, when they are handing out medication, they need to ensure that it out medication, they need to ensure thatitis out medication, they need to ensure that it is a infection and patients should not demand unless they know it is an infection. Currently, it is a bit late for me. Its nice to know that people are taking awareness now. I also think what needs to happen is the development of new antibiotics. There hasnt been any new antibiotic line since the 1980s. They take ten years to make. A lot of Research Needs to go into antibiotics before they go into the public. That factor needs to be looked at. Im only 25 but as the years go on, im only building up a resistance to the strongest antibiotics now. Emily, we will come back to you. Helen is also with us. You are an antibiotic guardian, what does that mean . It means that i have made a pledge to the safety of the use of antibiotics in my practice. I ama use of antibiotics in my practice. I am a pharmacist but i work in general practice. I run audits, and i look at retrospective studies that we have done in the practice. I re evaluate whether antibiotics should have been used, whether there are any learnings we could have taken on as clinicians. I can prescribe myself. I share those learnings with clinicians in the practice. We adopt the antibiotic policy local to us. Again, it is reevaluating the strength of our prescribing and insuring that they are appropriate. And also improving patient education locally, what we can do with frailty patients, patients with long term conditions but they have back up antibiotics. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, they have respiratory conditions were in turn that makes them more susceptible to bacterial infections. It is reevaluating the use of antibiotics in these situations. Why are so few new drugs coming onto the market . So, we have had two new classes of antibiotics in the last 40 years. Like the previous person said, it takes a long time for new drugs to come onto the market. There is no attraction for pharmaceutical companies, unfortunately, to develop new medication. Antibiotics will only be used acutely, for an odd few days. Who is to say that a patient will need repeated courses . It is different, medications that are high dependency like Heart Failure or hypertensive. It isnt attractive for pharmaceutical companies but they have large stakeholders to keep that sustainability going. Again, it comes to an ethical decision, as to whether there should be investment from the government to develop new medication in the field. Very quickly, you were given last resort antibiotics, what did that mean for you . I was antibiotics, what did that mean for you . Iwas a antibiotics, what did that mean for you . I was a lucky one, i had a nasty superbug that had developed over the years to be extremely resistant to antibiotics, if not all. I was one of the lucky ones, that the last resort actually created for. It has created a few times but there are thousands of people with these same superbugs and unfortunately, there are no antibiotics left to treat these bugs. It was very scary. But, i look at myself as being very lucky. That is why people like antibiotic research uk are so important for people like me. Thank you. The government have funded the research in the last year, more than £116 million, they say, which isjust part of year, more than £116 million, they say, which is just part of a year, more than £116 million, they say, which isjust part of a £160 Million Investment by the government into tackling drug resistant infections since they launched a National Strategy at the end of 2013. An e mail has come in from sandra, she says that her brother died in 1994 after six months in a coma. Towards the end, antibiotics we re coma. Towards the end, antibiotics were resistant and could not help him. What have the authority is done since then . I include here the uks chief medical officer. Why is big pharma not getting new antibiotics developed . No point in giving out warnings, nothing happens. We will be talking about this again after 10am this morning. Keep your comments coming in. Still to come. More than 30 people die in wildfires in Northern California. Weve got the latest. Germany has welcomed more than 1 million refugees, but how are they adapting to life there . We have a special report. Time for the latest news heres annita. The headlines on bbc news.

Thank you. The number of people confirmed dead in wildfires sweeping Northern California has risen to 31, as officials warn that conditions will worsen. Hundreds of people remain missing in what are now the most serious wildfires in the states history. More than 8,000 firefighters are now battling the flames including Prison Inmates whove been recruited in the effort. The wildfires have destroyed more than 3,500 buildings and homes over 170,000 acres and displaced about 25,000 people. The huge fires have sent smoke and ash over San Francisco, about 50 miles away, and over some towns and cities even further south. The worst affected area is the Santa Rosa Community which includes the famous wine region of the napa valley. These orange circles show where fires are still active. Strong winds that have fanned the flames eased in recent days, but forecasters are warning they are set to pick up again tonight. Earlier i wasjoined by earlier i was joined by guests who told us what was happening near them. The reason the fires are out of control, the winds were unprecedented. The firefighters and the authorities had no idea, they couldnt predict the winds would push the fire so fast. The fires came into the city unpredictably and burnt down to entire neighbourhoods. So obviously that has displaced a lot of people but not only that, because of the unpredictability, the authorities have evacuated large areas surrounding the fire that were not necessarily immediately endangered. Because of this, we have thousands of people displaced and we have various shelters set up around the area. In california we are used to having wild forest fires, this is different because it burned down neighbourhoods, because of that every single thing in that neighbourhood is up in the air, in the smoke. Everything that a house had, all the chemicals, electronics, everything in a house is contaminated in the breathing air and everybody in the entire area needs to be Wearing Masks because the air is polluted. Edgar eure bilingual radio station, how are you keeping people informed . Bilingual radio station, how are you keeping people informed . Well, we are actually not only that, we are a volunteer station, no one at the station is a professionaljournalist but we are making as many phone calls as we can, looking up information constantly, and any information constantly, and any information we can find directly on the error. We have been going 16 18 hour days, nonstop, finding any information ferne mccann, if we can get through to some public officials, if they have a spanish speaker, thats great, if we dont, we have been translating. Finding any information where we can. We are trying to keep people updated with important information. One of the problems we see especially in our community is the working immigrants from mexico and south america who have been displaced, many of them are afraid that if they look for services to help them, if they go to the shelters, they are afraid the authorities, that they will be in danger of being arrested or deported for their immigration status. Its one of the biggest obstacles we are facing, especially in our community, trying to get people help. Suzanne, weve heard heartbreaking stories, one about an elderly couple, tell us about that. Yes, tonight they released a list of ten people, the identities of ten people who were killed and we be gannon to look into who these people were and one of them, turned out to be a woman who had been married for 55 years with her husband, they were on a vacation, they are from the los angeles area, and they had travelled all over the world this year, to europe, to cambodia and they had been intending to have a holiday in the wine country. So they rented a house with their daughter and her husband and child and they were all having a great time until this fire hit in the middle of the night, they we re hit in the middle of the night, they were woken at around 1am and they had to get out really quickly so they got into their three cars, the son in law was in one car, the daughter and her child in another and the elderly parents in the third carand and the elderly parents in the third car and they began to leave but what happened was a tree fell and blocked. The first two cars got out with the daughter and son in law, the third car with the elderly parents was trapped and the fires at that point, the fire was about, 30 feet high, they decided to go back to the house and jump in the Swimming Pool because they figured in the water, they would be safe. And they stayed in the pool for hours as the fire burned down the house and everything around them and the fire began to go out and the sun began to come out, the wife died in her husbands arms and he held her for hours and. Eventually he left, he walked two miles to find help, horrible story, just tragic, but we are afraid those are the kind of stories we will hear more about as we get more information aboutjust how bad it is out there. The fire has been raging for days now, why is it so difficult to control, hundreds are missing, thousands of peoples homes have been burned down, as there are more that could have been done, that could still be done . This fire, i think, done, that could still be done . This fire, ithink, what done, that could still be done . This fire, i think, what you are looking at, the conditions, high winds, kerry tried to rein and low humidity and we have seen this kind of situation in california, it happens every year, we have wildfires and occasionally they do burnham into populated areas. Its rare for it, as your other guest was saying, for this to go into densely populated cities. And what happened in this case, it is essentially a firestorm, the winds blow embers for miles and embers catch on trees and roofs and it is impossible for the firefighters to get control of it. This wildfires in california burnham for weeks, if not months and the real problem we are having in the north, the northern part of the state right now, they are burning in areas they have old into more wildlands, so there arent many homes out there now and a lot of communities threatened that were never, we have never seen communities threatened that were never, we have never seen this kind of thing. Edgar, californias director of urgency services has said we are not even close to being out of this emergency. Whats your reaction to that, what should happen now . I think over the next week with. Seeing depending on whether they can control the fires, i am sure we will see more evacuations, getting deeper and deeper into the middle of the city. The thing that everybody fears is that the fires move into the downtown area and across to more neighbourhoods. I think one thing that is a serious problem, that will be a problem for some time is the contamination of the air, people having to wear masks, the providers, the stores that provide masks are running out because Everybody Needs to wear masks, the contaminants in the air as the result of houses burning down are potentially poisonous, especially for a very Young Children. And so, even in the San Francisco area, they are having to deal with the smoke in the air and even besides the fires themselves and the displacement, this is a serious problem we are dealing with right now. Edgar and suzanne, thank you very much. Germany has now welcomed more than a million refugees more than anywhere else in europe. But at the same time as theyve been embraced by some of the population there has been rising hostility from others. The recent german elections saw a surge in right wing politics in the country. For the last two years our reporter catrin nye has been following lives in gera, a small city in the former east germany. More than a million refugees are now in germany, having escaped the brutality of the worlds war zones. For two years we followed a syrian family in their struggle to adapt to life in a small east german city. And a German Family also struggling to adapt to refugees moving into their hometown. There is a problem with racism all over germany. It was never away and it grew and grew. Radio they will travel on to germany where the initial reception is likely to be a warm one. Certainly those who arrived in munichs main Railway Station last night were greeted with cheers and applause. But what happens to them after the applause dies down . Gera, in the former east germany, a small city almost completely unfamiliar with immigration because of its isolated communist history. Home now to a new population of refugees. Around 2000 are expected to arrive in the next two years. Hello. Wow. Are you going to show me around . Doham mohammed and his wife horda. I only met you guys in the corridor. Ill have another shake of your hand. Wow, thats a big one. And their children mohammed, serba and the littlest, noor, are among them. Doham worked in electronics in syria, horda is from a family of farmers. Doham was imprisoned by the syrian regime, accused of being involved with rebels. He suffered beatings while locked up. Doham fled, making the epicjourney overland across europe on his own, got asylum in germany and his family were flown over by the German Government as part of family reunification. Across germany half a Million People applied for asylum in 2015. In gera, a small army of volunteers fills local Community Centres to welcome them. They speak in german. The arrival even spawned studies. Local academic anna stiegmann is looking at their impact here. Being a former gdr federal state they are not experienced at all with any kind of lifestyle or Ethnic Diversity before 2012 i would say. The proportion of migrants is still below 3 and this is not what it is like in west german cities for example. Since they dont have any knowledge about them, they are quite easy to be manipulated by the right wing, extremist parties. Do you think there is a problem with racism in a town like this . Yes, there is a problem with racism all over germany. And it is increasing. It was never away and it grew and grew. Watching as these huge changes unfold are the heinz family, mum daniela, dad dirk, who has lived his whole life in gera, baby pierre, sophia and tarina. Radio the opinion polls are turning, people are getting more and more worried about what we will do about the massive influx of refugees into the country. Today in gera, a demonstration by a far right protest group expanding all over germany. Abschieben abschieben is deportment. These people that should go to the toilet in front of refugee homes. We are allowed to film. Excuse me, could you stop blocking our camera. He speaks in german. What are you worried about . I am worried about my family, my race, the german people. They lose their normal life. The crowd are shouting now, we dont want refugee homes. 200 ish against the refugees. Dirk wasnt demonstrating in gera. But his views towards refugees have hardened since i was last here and he thinks it is especially unfair that germany is welcoming so many compared to the uk. Lots of people will argue that germany is doing the right thing by being more generous. The increasing hostility towards refugees in gera is a worry for the al mohammed family. There have already been ten attacks here on refugees and their homes and after school talk turns to returning to syria, a subject doham and horda dont agree on. You want to go back to syria . Doham is still learning german, still training for a job, desperate to work. Radio . Into the bundestag, whether merkel becomes chancellor one thing is certain, the german political mainstream is set to move to the right. A year and a half on and doham finally has the job he was waiting for. Everything is so complicated. Stephan is his new boss. We had the idea of actually looking among those people who came in 2015, 2016, who we assumed there would have been quite a few qualified workers. Why did you assume that . Well, because here the saying is that the syrians are the engineers of the middle east. Hello the al mohammed family have been allocated a bigger house now. Because there is a new baby, their first born in germany. Mohammed, can i sit next to you . You are so german apart from her getting noisier, how has life changed since i was last here . Septembers german election saw huge gains for far right party the afd. The alternative for germany. In gera they won more votes than Angela Merkels party, who won. A party with posters like these took almost 30 . Look how big you are. Hello. Dirk and daniela dont usually vote. In fact dirk hasnt for decades. But this time they both turned out for the afd. What does the government need to do to make you feel happier, to make you feel like they are integrating more . Do you think your views are racist . For horda, for very different reasons, life is also increasingly tough. Her immigration status is very unstable. She only has protection in germany for another few months and though she says she would never take her children back to the dangers of syria now, she feels incredibly isolated in germany. Do you feel like this whole journey is easier for men than women . Do you feel like you have had to make a huge sacrifice .

The british actress Emma Thompson told bbc twos Newsnight Programme she found Harvey Weinstein to be a bully when his company miramax owned the rights to herfilm nanny mcphee. She said she did not know about the allegations of sexual impropriety, but added that they didnt surprise her. Heres some of her interview with emily maitlis. I didnt know about these things, but they dont surprise me at all and theyre endemic to the system anyway. What i find sort of extraordinary is that this man is at the top of a very particular iceberg. I dont think you can describe him as a sex addict, hes a predator, but what hes, as it were, at the top of the ladder of is a system of harassment and belittling and bullying and interference, and what my mother wouldve referred to in the olden days as pestering. Is he pestering you . Thats the word we used to use in the olden days, if you recall. This has been part of our world, womens world, since time immemorial, so what we need to Start Talking about is the crisis in masculinity, the crisis of extreme masculinity, which is this sort of behaviour, and the fact that it is not only ok but it also is represented by the most powerful man in the world at the moment. So when you describe him as being the tip of the iceberg, do you think there are others like that in your industry in hollywood . Of course. Many . Many. To that degree . Maybe not to that degree. Do they have to all be as bad as him to make it count . Does it only count if you really have done it to loads and loads and loads of women, or does it count if you do it to one woman once . I think the latter. The us Actress Rose Mcgowan is the fourth woman to allege that she was raped by Harvey Weinstein. She took to twitter and criticised the head of amazon studio roy price, for ignoring her complaints about the producer. Amazon later said in a statement that its studio head roy price had been put on leave of absence, and that it was reviewing projects it had with the weinstein company. A spokeswoman said any allegations of nonconsensual sex are denied by mr weinstein. Oliver stone who is currently in south korea for the Film Festival said Harvey Weinstein was being condemned by a vigilante system. You wait until this thing is bing gets to a trial, if you broke the law, it will come out. I believe a man shouldnt be condemned by a vigilante man shouldnt be condemned by a vigila nte system. Man shouldnt be condemned by a vigilante system. So, it is not easy what hes going through either. In that period, he was a rival. I never did business with him. And i didnt really know him. I heard Horror Stories on everybody in the business so im not going to comment on gossip. But, wait and see. That is the right thing to do. Our entertainment correspondent, Chi Chi Izundu is here.

She is alleged to have said she was disgusted, and was annoyed because it happened right at the start of the lunch and therefore she had to sit through. She wanted to get out of their quickly but she turned him down in no uncertain terms. What is going on with female stars on twitter. Rose mcgowan has been one of the most vocal female celebrities who has said she has had a sexual encounter with Harvey Weinstein.

Englands chief medical officer has warned of a post antibiotic apocalypse as she issued a call to action, urging Global Leaders to address the growing threat of antibiotic resistance. Professor Dame Sally Davies said that if antibiotics lose their effectiveness it will spell the end of modern medicine. Without the drugs used to fight infections, common medical interventions such as caesarean sections, cancer treatments and hip replacements would become incredibly risky. She also says transplant medicine would be a thing of the past. Emily morris has contracted eight superbugs. She said her resistance is increasing and has had to take last resort antibiotics twice. Asa last resort antibiotics twice. As a little girl i have needed antibiotics due to a lot of you are ina antibiotics due to a lot of you are in a tract infections, societies kidney infections. Kutcher matt gohdes sis dice this. Sometimes they we re gohdes sis dice this. Sometimes they were infections but pain. Cystisis. These infections developed into superbugs. I agree with what has been said, the doctors are definitely, when they are handing out medication, they need to check it is an infection, and for the patient not to demand unless they know it is an infection. U nfortu nately for know it is an infection. Unfortunately for me it is too late. It is nice to know people are aware now. What needs to happen is a development of new antibiotics. There havent been any new antibiotics lined since the 1980s. They take ten years to make and a lot of Research Needs to go into it. That also needs to be a factor looked into. Iam that also needs to be a factor looked into. I am only 25. As the yea rs go looked into. I am only 25. As the years go on, i am growing resistance to the strongest antibiotics. Lets speak to mark fielder, who is the president of the society for applied microbiology, and professor of microbiology at kingston university. He is currently trying to develop new antibiotics. And to dr vanya gant, who is the divisional clinical director for infection at University College london hospital, and a consultant in Infectious Disease and microbiology. Mark, welcome to the programme. It is good to see you. Can you explain, in terms of biology, how we are where we are . Microbes themselves will naturally develop mutations in their genetic material to make them adapt to their environment and make them survive. We have pushed that along by moving antimicrobials to treat infections that we are treated with. Is that antibiotics . Yes, and we have increased their likelihood of making a mutation. That has gradually, over time, of making a mutation. That has gradually, overtime, developed further and further. We are in an arms race, they are trying to not be killed and we are trying to kill them. We are in a situation where they have got a foot in front, we need to get better diagnostics and new antimicrobials. How is that linked to the creation of superbugs . It isa linked to the creation of superbugs . It is a mutation, a department of resistance, that the organism develops resistance, that the organism d evelo ps to resistance, that the organism develops to make a supermodel. I do not like that term but it works in the sense that these bugs are resista nt to the sense that these bugs are resistant to antibiotics that we once commonly used. Interesting to get your reaction to a couple of comments. We spoke about it early on the programme. Some people have been saying that we are scaremongering and they need to be used for some things. Dont we put people at risk by and using them . Nobody is saying that we shouldnt be using them, but they should be used responsibly and carefully. Lord oneill, when he wrote the Antimicrobial Resistance review, he was suggesting that we should not prescribe antibiotics in agriculture or in human medicine, to show that these medicines are there. We need rapid diagnostics, microbiology is a slow subject, it ta kes microbiology is a slow subject, it takes us to 48 hours to grow at an organism and culture it. Sometimes we need to treat without having that information, like tewolde mengisteab, you have to treat that immediately. Making sure that we use those antibiotics appropriately is critical. I do not think that we are scaremongering. Lord oneill predicts that by 2050, we could have 50,000 people dying per year. Nobody wa nts 50,000 people dying per year. Nobody wants that. We should be using them responsibility. It sounds like a simplistic way of looking at it, but cant we just invent new ones . What is the role of the pharmaceutical companies in this . We can, that has not been done for a while, to be honest, about 20 years, as the previous speaker mentioned. But we are looking again. Why not . Is that down to money, they dont make as much money . It is. If somebody is on Blood Pressure medication, they are on that for lifeboat antibiotics, 710 on that for lifeboat antibiotics, 7 10 days, assuming they are effective, then they do not use it any more. The other problem, a drug, that costs the same amount of money as an anti hypertension drug or anti cancer, it costs the same amount but is then building up a resista nce amount but is then building up a resistance to that period of time a resistance to that in a period of time. It is suggested that there are tax breaks and differences in the way that patents are worked so that we can have more production of antimicrobials. Many groups, including my own, are looking outside of the pharmaceutical industry, looking to find these antimicrobials. There is a mismatch, some people at home would be thinking, why arent these companies being made to do more . Why arent the government making sure . If, it is being described as it been the end of modern medicine. One of the things to be aware of, if we get a new antibiotic tomorrow, it isnt the solution, it is its use in an appropriate and responsible manner. Having a new drug is really important. Its a massive step forward. But having those tools to allow clinical colleagues in veterinary medicine and human medicine to make sure they use the drug appropriately by having a better diagnostic is a whole mishmash of questions that need to be asked and answered. It is a Global One Health response to let this happen. And a very good morning to you, we heard a lot of the problems about where we are. What are the solutions . Good morning. The solutions, for me, are really not at all obvious right now. It is a message from the front line. I saw 90 patients and treatments and various forms of leukaemia and bone marrow transplantation. That was literally yesterday afternoon. About three quarters of them had a huge fever, that is because, to cure them of leukaemia, you have two wipe out the bone marrow and their normal immunity. The only way we can kill these people of their blood cancer is by supporting them through that period with antibiotics. Let me be quite clear. We could not commit in 2017, quite clear. We could not commit in 2017, we could not, in 2017, have our fantastic survival leukaemia rates if you were not for these antibiotics. It is that simple. I am ina antibiotics. It is that simple. I am in a position where on a daily basis, i find laboratory organisms that are resistant to all front line antibiotics, that are sometimes resistant to second line antibiotics. Occasionally, at the moment, in the uk, it is only occasionally resistant to just about every antibiotic that i can use. I wa nt every antibiotic that i can use. I want to be very clear. Im just going to stop you there, vanya, because the line is not very good. Let me read some comments, is anyone going to mention about how agriculture is contributing to and baltic resistance . Farming also needs to change. Somebody else says that they are not addressing the issue of antibiotics in agriculture contributing to antibiotic resistance. I have mentioned it, things have been done. The use of them in poultry farming has been dropped by about 70 . There are moves to ensure that the responsible use of antimicrobials are being used infarming. There use of antimicrobials are being used in farming. There is a problem, we do not use antibiotics as growth promoters since 2006. This is part of Dame Sally Davies global push, and why she is hitting so hard to make people sit up and take note. Use has been restricted in the uk, antibiotics in various different sectors of farming has been carefully modified. That is why i mentioned the one health thing. We need to look at it globally and indeed, we are. I work with groups like the responsible use of medicines in agriculture, we are heavily pushing that they should only be used when there is a clinical need and not generally. Another mark on e mail says that he works in the Health Care Sector as an works in the Health Care Sector as c works in the Health Care Sector as an agency nurse. He goes to many different ca re an agency nurse. He goes to many different care settings and sees time and again bottles of liquid antibiotics put into the domestic waste bin, letting residue left in the bottle eventually get into the environment which helps bacteria become resistant. Should there be, or is there, a National Policy regarding the disposal of antibiotics which are no longer in use anti containers that they come in . Someone here who wants to remain anonymous, says that their mum was given back to back antibiotics for chest infections, she got a superbug. She eventually contracted c diff, which destroys the good bacteria in the gut. Their mother was admitted to hospital and eventually died. The head of the prison and Probation Service has admitted the rehabilitation system isnt working as well as it should be. Michael spurr has said the new arrangements that were brought in in england and wales in 2015 are no more than basic signposting. At the moment, Probation Services for low and medium risk offenders are outsourced to 21 Community Rehabilitation companies. Lets talk now to our guests. Paula harriott, who spent four years in jail for supplying drugs. She says coming out of prison was equally as traumatic as the prison sentence. And she now works for a rehabilitation charity. Bob neill is the conservative chair of the Justice Committee. Jacob tas is the chief exec of nacr which is a National Charity that works with prisoners 0k, ok, lets begin with you, jacob. Why are we in this situation . |j ok, lets begin with you, jacob. Why are we in this situation . I would firstly like to say that it is nacro, there has been great ambition, when the programme was launched, it is very complicated. There are a lot of players. The magnitude of the task at hand may not have been managed well. There are changes where probation trusts we re are changes where probation trusts were built, and put together. Then, there was a big outsourcing operation. So a competitive process. People on the ground, probation officers, they were unclear as to what would happen and who would own them. When it was clarified, it was changed again. Office people had to move offices, and computer systems, there was a massive change in the first place. It also, in terms of the contract, as it has been set out, it has been concentrating on making sure that the bureaucracy is right, instead of the focus on rehabilitation. If they do not commita rehabilitation. If they do not commit a crime again, we can have a Safer Society altogether. Sheila had been a pilot as soon as this came in . Shouldnt there have been . Absolutely, that was what the Justice Committee was saying before the election, when we had evidence. It was done too quickly, and it was not tested. A lot of the systems are not tested. A lot of the systems are notjoined up not tested. A lot of the systems are not joined up properly. Not tested. A lot of the systems are notjoined up properly. It should have been recognised. The idea and principles are not being delivered thoroughly. That is why we are reinstating the full enquiry into this. We need this right now. It is striking, we are just signposting people. We have compelling evidence at the beginning of the year. That we used to give people £46 for a resettlement grant when they left prison, now they get a leaflet and a lot of phone numbers. That isnt helping people to be resettled into their jobs, helping people to be resettled into theirjobs, homes, work or education. Isnt the fact that these services are being outsourced to 21 companies that the heart of the problem . Isnt it right, when profit isa problem . Isnt it right, when profit is a factor, in providing this service . I do not have an issue with the principle of outsourcing, but it needs to be done properly. The contract has to be written correctly and they need to be done in a way that you are not ticking the box. You are remembering that you are not selling things off a store in a market, you are dealing with changing peoples lives. It requires more joined up working between companies, and between the community and rehabilitation company, the prison service, the split between the two is artificial. More continuity from when people are in prison, getting advice to win the league and the health service, the local authorities, the whole thing needs to be joined up a lot more. What was your experience like in the Probation Service and coming out of prison . I was in prison before rehabilitation, my experience was then that there was not sufficient emphasis on rehabilitation. So at that point, probation officers were known as offender managers. Managing the risk in the community rather thana the risk in the community rather than a specific focus on rehabilitation. Absolutely, tr, for many ex prisoners, that was something. Many people on probation welcomed putting rehabilitation at the heart of the endeavour because coming out of prison is incredibly dramatic. You have hurdles to get over, around housing, and whether you are deemed harmless. And whether you are deemed harmless. And whether you are deemed harmless. And whether you are eligible for housing, how you are eligible for housing, how you access Mental Health support thatis you access Mental Health support that is overwhelmed already. Will you be prioritised . What are the benefits . So many benefits and stories about universal credit and massive delays. I now work for a revolving door agency, helping people with experience in these issues. They constantly report massive delays around getting their benefits and accessing services, and probation is overwhelmed with these issues. I think that there are these structural issues surrounding how it all links together. The ambition has not been fully realised. But, there are wider issues in the community, other than probation failing people in prison. I think it is a systemic failure surrounding the lack of joined up thinking, and to us, probation, to try and solve benefit delays, to try and solve housing delays. Coming out of prison, they do not get the support they need, they go back to prison and the prison system is already under a lot of pressure. We talk about probation today, but there is overcrowding in jazz and this adds to the list of problems. Housing is critical in rehabilitation. Some housing authorities have policies which dont work well for offenders, that is notjoined dont work well for offenders, that is not joined up. Finding alternatives to custody when it is appropriate. The Magistrates Association say they are uncomfortable imposing Community Sentences because we dont have a guarantee as to what sort of programmes will be delivered. You need a credible alternative to custody where you can, and a system where people in prison have the education, training, rehabilitation, and it is followed through. It is being handed over to a different set of people and information is not transferred. What is the solution for you . You need intensive support. A place to go when you are experiencing problems that is safe to discuss those, 121. You dont want supervision over the phone, in groups. You want to build a relationship with someone who understands the difficulties you are facing. Thank you all are speaking to us. The ministry ofjustice has said steps a re the ministry ofjustice has said steps are being taken to improve the quality of Probation Services they say they have already taken action to change the contracts with Community Rehabilitation companies, and continue to work with them to ensure they deliver services with the correct levels of supervision and support for offenders. They say Public Protection remains their priority. Still to come. A charity has said children who have dyspraxia are being mislabelled at school as lazy or naughty.

Children who have dyspraxia are being mislabelled at school as lazy or naughty, a charity says. Dyspraxia is a condition which is thought to affect as many as two children in every class, or as much as 5 of the population. Yet it receives a fraction of the publicity of less common disorders such as dyslexia or autism. Its a lifelong neurological condition that slows the transmission of messages from the brain to the limbs. People who have it can have difficulty with coordination and movement, but also with processing information. The Dyspraxia Foundation believes that tens of thousands of children and adults are unaware they have it. There is no cure, but early diagnosis can help teachers be more supportive. We can now speak to sally payne, a trustee of the Dyspraxia Foundation. Shes also an nhs occupational therapist who carried out her phd research on dyspraxia in teens. Rosaline van de weyer and ten year old reuben, and Sarah Greaves and seven year old lucas. Lucas and reuben have both been diagnosed with dyspraxia. Mark robinson is a former 1xtra dj, who was only diagnosed with dyspraxia two years ago at the age of 40. He has gone back into education, and is studying to be a barrister. Sadly, tell us a bit more about what dyspraxia is and the symptoms. Dyspraxia is a condition that affects large body movements such as balance, posture, the ability to catch and kick a ball, and fine motor movements, the way we use our hands to grip, manipulate, handled tools and equipment. It can affect speech in some people, and their difficulties often with organisation, planning, attention, memory, these combined can make it difficult for people to carry out everyday activities we take for granted. It has been described as some as dyslexia for movement . I think there is a general understanding of awareness of dyslexia, but dyspraxia is different in that it affects the organisation of movement and planning and retentive memory. How does it affect reuben . It took me quite long to learn to swim and ride a bike, and everyone in my class could tie their shoelaces and it took me a lot longer to learn to tie my shoelaces. The teachers would get quite annoyed because they would have to do my shoelaces and i wouldnt be able to do them. And then now that i have been diagnosed with dyspraxia, they understand more, and they understand that i have a reason. That must have been pretty difficult not knowing why you cant do things which to other people seemed easy. How did you feel . It was embarrassing. Because everyone else could do it. I couldnt. It was annoying and embarrassing. When was reuben diagnosed . To be honest, it was a school report. I have a daughter who is a little bit older, just a year older. She had flown through school, and had the same teacher, the same class. The teacher was astonished at the difference between the children. Reuben was just my reuben. When we had the school report, the word, distracted, appeared five or six times. And i thought that was chipping away at his self esteem. He was trying really hard. Lam ten. Was trying really hard. I am ten. I got that report when i was eight. It has made a difference, hasnt it . To your teacher as well. Had you heard of the term dyspraxia before that . I had from a professional perspective, i have worked as an artificial therapy occupational therapist. It is different when it is your own child. Managing those issues, thinking, is it because he issues, thinking, is it because he isa issues, thinking, is it because he is a boys, boys take longer. Should he be trying harder . Trying tojudge that balance all the time. It does, you tell me, does it affect males more than females . Certainly, be search suggests three boys to every one girl is affected. Some research by the Dyspraxia Foundation suggested girls were later when their difficulties were identified. Lucas . How does dyspraxia affect you . It doesnt really affect me, itjust took me longer to ride my bike and tie my shoelaces. And itjust took me longer at other things than other people. I got a bit bad at handwriting than anybody else. What was that like for you, was it difficult . Yes, it was quite confusing and embarrassing when i didnt know i had dyspraxia. But now i know, it is not that big a deal because my teachers let me use special pencils to help my handwriting. How did you find out you had dyspraxia . A dyspraxia teacher came called akira. And she did a lesson with me. And then she realised i had dyspraxia because of the way i was doing some stuff. How did that make you feel, what has it been like since you found out . It has been normal. A bit different to other people. Because you have dyspraxia and most people dont. So ive got worse handwriting than everybody else. What strategies have you come up with, the professionals, to help lucas . When lucas was diagnosed, we started learning what dyspraxia was and how to explain it to him. One thing he has is a little card saying what dyspraxia is. It helped him understand that it wasnt because he was silly or stupid or frustrated. He would come home from school being upset he couldnt do what his friends were doing. This could help him understand what dyspraxia was and he could explain to his friends. Its and he could explain to his friends. Its not because im silly or worse than you or as clever, it is because i have this condition which makes things tricky for me. I am trying my best. What are your friends like with you . How do you explain it to them . They dont really ask about it. They have known it for laverty years. It is just who you are. It is just who you are. It has a mental impact, notjust the physical symptoms, how has that affected you . Before lucas was diagnosed, he was unhappy at school and very frustrated. He would come home calling himself stupid compared to his classmates. He would get angry in the classroom which is why people realised something was disconnected between the child who talks to you and the child in the classroom. His self esteem was really very low. Since knowing what it is, he is a different character. This is who i am. Some things will be more difficult. But i will get there. He has learned to ride his bike. He explains to people what is going on. The card from the Dyspraxia Foundation means we can explain it. For me, i used to be really slow and i would often not get much done. Everyone else would get a lot of work done, i would only ever get done half of what they did. The teachers would be really annoyed at me. They would just be quite frustrated because i hadnt got much work done. Because at the time they didnt know. And how did you feel when that happened . Didnt know. And how did you feel when that happened . It was. It was really frustrating. I didnt know at the time either. But it was really annoying because they werent really. They thought i wasjust stupid, and not very. And thats absolutely not the case. Mark, how do you feel, listening to lucas and ruben . You were diagnosed at the age of 40 . Yes, it brings back a lot of stuff i suffered through my childhood. I had a torrid time in school. With shoe laces, my handwriting is pretty bad. Playing sport, i was often left out. Like in football, for example. Iwas the child who couldnt play. It was a horrid time but ive made up for it, at the age of 40. We are talking about how difficult it was for the both of you before you found out. You had to go through such a big pa rt you had to go through such a big part of your lives not knowing . How difficult was that . I mean, it completely did my self esteem to be honest. I was radical done beer i worse iworse ridiculed i worse ridiculed and iworse ridiculed and bullied i worse ridiculed and bullied at school, i was in the bottom set for everything. I only did a maths gcse in school, and my whole life i wondered, what is it . It was coordination, and it was only when somebody told me, when i went for a dyslexia test, that it might be dyspraxia, that we looked into it further and dyspraxia, that we looked into it furtherandl dyspraxia, that we looked into it further and i got myself checked out. I was able to Start University after that point. Its been a complete turnaround. How did you feel when you found out that moment, when you felt that explained everything that happened before . School, not being able to tie your shoelaces and all of the other symptoms . I was relieved i had an answer, being able to progress and find a solution of howl answer, being able to progress and find a solution of how i could cope and get the support in place. Throughout my career in music, i always felt that i was missing academically. I really felt the need to make up for it. You have, what are you doing now . I went to university and im just finishing my law degree. Im about to start my training contract as a solicitor in an east london practice in criminal law. And in immigration, going from having a single gcse. To this. It support. Please, if your children are displaying these kinds of signs, please go and get the support. Do not suffer like i did. Without support, you can achieve to the highest level. It is so good to hear. Talking about support, how much is available . Given that people do not know what dyspraxia is . you dont mind taking it backjust one step, i think the key thing is knowledge is power, isnt it . The more you have self inside, you can support yourself. See close resources that you need, seek those resources that you need, and you can inform others. That was a turning point in your life . Getting the self inside. And for you, ruben, wasnt it . Weve used Different Things in terms of support. Like checklists, remembering what to put in your school bag. Practical stuff. What to bring home. You are encouraged to do your mental check list, arent you . The Dyspraxia Foundation have fantastic leaflets i encourage everyone to look at on their website. They have top tips for children in early years. Then it goes on to the next level. Tips for stu d e nts goes on to the next level. Tips for students and teachers at primary school. Then, at secondary school. They can be downloaded from the website. They are slick, you can ta ke website. They are slick, you can take them into school and give them to your teachers. They are fabulous. Some feedback on what people at home are watching and seeing. Julie on twitter says that both boys are clear, confident, wonderful. They will be great spokesman for dyspraxia. George says its an unbelievable performance from the two lads on victoria live, keep your chin up and do not let it hold you back. The government has invested half £1 million to cover a few things, not only dyspraxia that is enough being done, what more can be done . The important thing is to raise awareness and understanding, so the difficulties of children, like ruben and lucas, can be recognised and identified in the classroom. If we have that recognition, we can put in place support strategies that would enable people to be successful, like mark, and other adults that we know, who are doing Amazing Things in their lives. It sounds like you all are. Thank you for talking about this with us today. A department for education spokesman said we know how important it is that children with medical conditions are supported to enjoy a full education. That is why we introduced a new duty to require governing bodies to make arrangements to support pupils with medical conditions and provide statutory guidance with schools responsibilities in the area. They are providing £500,000 to the british dyslexia association, and the Dyspraxia Foundation. And manchester metropolitan university, to provide support for children and young people with dyspraxia, dyslexia, and other specific learning difficulties. Donald trump is expected later today to make a speech outlining the uss position on the iran nuclear deal. Many predict hell say he wont re certify or back the agreement which was designed to prevent iran making a nuclear weapon. The move would mark the first step in a process that could lead to us sanctions being put back on iran, sanctions that previously had a massive impact on the middle eastern countrys economy. The president hasnt hidden his co nte m pt the president hasnt hidden his contempt for the deal. It was a Campaign Pledge in the run up to the election to scrap any deal brokered during the obama years but did not put America First. He negotiated a disastrous deal with iran, then we watched them ignore those terms, even before the ink was dry. Iran cannot be allowed to having nuclear weapons, cannot be allowed, remember that, cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapons. One of the worst deals i have ever seen is the iran deal. My administration has already imposed new sanctions on iran and i will do more to prevent iran from ever developing, i mean ever, a nuclear weapons. The iran deal was one of the worst and most one sided transactions. That the United States has ever entered into. Frankly, that deal is an embarrassment to the United States, and i do not think youve heard the last of it. Believe me. Lets talk now to sanam vakil who is an associate fellow at chatham houses middle East North Africa programme. Thank you forjoining us. What do you think donald trump will say . Well, sources say, that he is going to criticise the nuclear deal but stop short of withdrawing american participation in the deal. He believes that the deal is against american interests and since he has an America First agenda, he has spoken strongly against the deal, this is his way of protecting American Integrity and commitment to the deal, and also criticising it. Why does he believe it isnt good for america . Given that it was signed up to by the us, but also china, france, the uk, germany, it took years to negotiate the deal to get iran to dismantle or not pursue any development of nuclear weapons. He has two problems, one is with the agreement itself, he blames the Obama Administration for it, and criticises the deal for being weak, in terms of scope. And specifically, he thinks that the length of the deal should be extended. How long is it at the moment . They are different clauses, ten years, 15 years and 25 yea rs. Clauses, ten years, 15 years and 25 years. Limitations of the nuclear deal. But that is one part of the problem. Then, theres the larger part. That the deal is only focused on Irans Nuclear programme and not the larger areas of differences between iran and the United States. Including the Ballistic Missile programme and irans negative role in the region supporting non state actors. And basically, coming against the american interests and allies in the middle east. What does the deal mean for not only iran and the deal mean for not only iran and the us but other countries signed up to it . It means a lot. It was a deal that was one decade in the making and it was a deal between washington and it was a deal between washington and teheran, and also other members of the un security council, including germany. The European Partners and russians, the chinese, they are proud of the deal and believe it has been a success. International agencies have continued to reaffirm iranians compliance. To walk away from the deal, it would be to walk away from multilateral diplomacy which is frowned upon in all of these other capitals. If donald trump, america, undermines the deal, does that mean it will fall apart . Not necessarily. The russians and the chinese have strongly reaffirmed their commitment to the deal. The iranians have also said if the europeans and other parties, russia and china, stick to the deal, then iran will as well. They are trying to behave as a rational actor against that, but positioning themselves against donald trump in that scenario and iran are dependent on the economic incentives of the deal. In order to give up the nuclear programme, they receive the removal of international sanctions, and Foreign Investment in the iranian economy. If donald trump refuses to recertify, as it is called, what happens next . Congress also have a say . They have 60 days to reimpose Nuclear Related sanctions on iran. If they do that, the deal will fall apart. America will be in breach of the agreement. It is likely that congress will not do that. Because, for a variety of reasons, including that there is a movement inside of congress and the wider American Foreign policy establishments to support the deal, because of wider issues including the north Korea Nuclear tensions that are all so flaring up as well. But we could look at other ways of containing iranian aggression in the middle east, like sanctioning the revolutionary guard corps and putting more sanctions on iran for the Ballistic Missile programme. We will see what happens. Thank you for speaking to us. Youd been responding to our dyspraxia discussion. No name on this one on twitter, their son is 16, despite the school knowing that he is dyspraxia there is criticism of his handwriting, no extra time in his exams because they have not asked. Then we says its an interesting discussion, well done to the boys for raising awareness. Eileen says that concern that schools and teachers are labelled as failing Young Children when the support for early identification of Additional Needs like dyspraxia, through medical screening, is often absent in early years. Mary says as an ex teacher of 37 years she gets depressed by constant blaming of teachers. Thank you for your comments. Have a good day. Good morning.
