Its one of 12 criminal charges brought against Paul Manafort, and one of his business associates, including conspiring to launder money. Its alleged the two men received 75 million in all from pro Russian Politicians in ukraine. Its also emerged that another adviser to President Trump has pleaded guilty to lying about his links to russia. All the charges have been brought as part of an investigation into alleged russian interference in the us election. 0ur north america editorjon sopel has been following the days dramatic events as they unfolded. Paul manafort, are you telling yourself into federal authorities today . This is not how it was meant today . This is not how it was meant to be. Mr manna fought has no common. Just over one year ago multimillionaire Paul Manafort was donald trump s campaign chairman, a figure of huge influence. Today hes been ordered to an Fbi Field Office to face the gravest charges. Normally talkative, today much more tight lipped. Normally talkative, today much more tightlipped. The indictment runs to over 30 pages and details of a complex web of Financial Arrangements to keep vast amounts secured from us authorities. It details how Paul Manafort was working as an agent for the pro russia party in ukraine from whom he received tens of millions of dollars in payments for decades until 2017. It is alleged he laundered 18 million through various accounts and companies and by any means. Almost 1 million was laundered through an antiques rugs store in alexandria virginia, millions laundered through a mens clothes store in new york. It adds a substantial layer of complexity, just the ukraine and russia connection could add months to this investigation. In response to the indictment the president has treated angry, sorry but this is years ago before Paul Manafort was part of the Trump Campaign but why not crooked hillary and the democrats the focus . And another tweet on russia. Also, there is no collusion. That is the line taken by his lawyer. The allegations in the indictment are focused on their business activities, not campaign activities, not campaign events. But today a separate, deeply damaging disclosure. This man, george papadopoulos, a Foreign Policy adviser to the Trump Campaign who President Trump once described as an excellent guide, secretly pleaded guilty earlier this month to lying to the fbi about his contacts with russian officials during the campaign. And as former state Department Official and International Lawyer said that could be much more significant. Paul ma nafort be much more significant. Paul manafort is a bigger figure be much more significant. Paul manafort is a biggerfigure between expected the charges and indictment against him to come at today. This guilty plea by papadopoulos discloses facts of communication between the Trump Campaign and russia that we didnt know about and that could be a much bigger problem for trump. The charge sheet against papadopoulos says he is cooperating fully with the authorities. In other words it looks like hes prepared to reveal more information as part of a plea bargain. That could give other white house officials sleepless nights and cause to engage their own lawyers, and quickly. Jon, with this dramatic events today how close is but the russian interference in the election getting to the president himself . Before i come to that let me tell you, Paul Manafort and an associate, rick gates, havejust pleaded not guilty in the quarters behind me where they have made their first appearance. As to the question of helplessness is getting to donald trump, special counsel was said to investigate whether there was collusion between the Trump Campaign and the russians. As i speak to you 110w and the russians. As i speak to you now there is still no evidence of that. However, Paul Manafort has been charged because of the money that took from ukrainians backing russia. We have had this other extraordinary disclosure today of National Security adviser george papadopoulos, who National Security adviser george pa padopoulos, who has National Security adviser george papadopoulos, who has pleaded guilty and is cooperating actively with the fbi, over the russia investigation, after he said he lied about it. So all of that suggests that robert mueller, the special counsel, has an awful lot more work to do. This will not be over quickly as the white house would like. The white house is trying to deflect attention onto the democrats and problems they might have had in terms of the russians. But this investigation is not going to go away. This is not the end, maybe it is the end of phase one. Within the white house, i would imagine now, a good deal of anxiety. Jon sopel in washington, thank you.

The amount of Carbon Dioxide in the earths atmosphere last year was the highest for more than 800,000 years. The World Meteorological 0rganisation says human activity and the el nino weather phenomenon caused the dramatic increase. Theyre warning the results could make global temperature targets largely unattainable, as Rebecca Morelle reports. Keeping track of our atmosphere for decades, research stations like this one in the swiss alps had been monitoring levels of Carbon Dioxide. Their latest findings show that the greenhouse of power around the world. We are talking about three ppm increase, which is the biggest increase we have ever recorded, its the biggest increase we can find in the geological record for millions of years. Its the fastest increase in 2016. This record breaking rise has been driven by human activities and the el nino weather phenomenon. Every few years, the Pacific Ocean surface becomes warmer. This causes wind patterns to change and weather is dramatically altered. Its caused drought, stopping vegetation growing and preventing plants and trees from soaking up Carbon Dioxide. Its also led to forest fires, which have injected more of the Greenhouse Gas into the atmosphere. So, how significant are todays findings . 0ver hundreds and thousands of years, Carbon Dioxide levels have fluctuated, but from 1950, levels have surged. Todays figures are the highest we have ever recorded. Its leading to unprecedented changes in places like the arctic, the mother walrus still needs to find a place where her young can rest. Increases in Carbon Dioxide are causing temperatures to rise, and the ice is melting faster than the animals can adapt. In 2015, the world agreed to big cuts in Greenhouse Gas emissions to limit warming, but experts say todays figures should prompt a renewed sense of urgency. There is hope, but we have to change our behaviour in the coming 10 to 20 years to be successful in this mitigation of effort. So far we have not been successful enough. , ambitious enough. The issue is that Carbon Dioxide lingers for hundreds of years this will be the focus of International Climate talks next week.

Cctv shows him lying unresponsive on the floor at Brixton Police station. As of yet, no one has been prosecuted for his death. His sister says there has been no justice for her family and many others. When somebody dies in police custody, for instance, its one thing having to deal with the death. Its the battlefield afterwards, that you just cannot find out actually what happened to them. Why have they got these injuries . Where did these injuries come from . And they always seem to blame the person that died. When i first saw my brother, ifainted. Thats about all i can say, its one of the most painful things that i have ever had to do. 0thers shared that pain. Injune 2010, James Herbert also died in police custody. He too had a history of mental illness. The Police Forces will get, at tax payers expense, the legal representation that they require.

More than 100 recommendations have been made which include Holding Police to account at an individual and corporate level, if restraint is excessive, unnecessary or disproportionate. No conferring an official accounts among Police Officers involved in a death in custody, and free legal advice for families. I think this is a story of systemic failure over many years.
