This mornings reviewers are political commentator vincent moss and ian birrell from the mail on sunday. Good morning and welcome to bbc news. Thejustice secretary, david gauke, is considering a possiblejudicial review of the decision to release the serial sex attacker, john worboys. In 2009, the former black cab driver was jailed indefinitely, with a minimum term of eight years. The decision of the parole board to approve his release caused outrage among his victims, charities and mps. The parole board insists correct procedures were followed. Our Political Correspondent leila nathoo is here. How usual is this decision by the justice secretary . Highly unusual because the parole board is strictly independent of the government. We have already had a review announced by the government into how the pa role by the government into how the parole board makes its decisions, since the decision to releasejohn worboys. That will look at how transparent the processes. But this is now an additional step that the newjustice secretary, is now an additional step that the new justice secretary, only is now an additional step that the newjustice secretary, only in the job less than a week, has taken to ask for advice on how probable a judicial review could be. Its understood that he is only prepared to continue along that road if there isa to continue along that road if there is a reasonable chance of success. If there is a judicial review, what are the chances are they changing the outcome . The review is a judgment process to consider the lawfulness of that initial decision by the parole board. It will be judging whether the Decision Making procedure was correct. The claim is that the parole board did not adequately take into account the views of victims. Many victims have said they werent consulted or included. Some said they thought that i found out about the decision through the media. There has been an outcry from victims at the decision. The crux of the matter will be whether the proper procedure was followed by the parole board. That is what could lead to the changing decision. Is clearly an element of politics in this. We gathered david gauke has been under pressure, been spoken to by other members of the cabinet, suggesting there is a judicial review. You low the sunday times reports that cabinet ministers have made representations to him about this, there have certainly been some outcry in the house by mps who have been calling for a different decision. Some mps have been calling for a judicial review, others saying he shouldnt be allowed to commit to Greater London because thats where he knows many of his victims live. They certainly have been some pressure. This step is just have been some pressure. This step isjust a scoping have been some pressure. This step is just a scoping exercise, at the moment. We understand that head expects that advice to be given this week, and then he will decide whether or not to proceed. Thank you. Thank you. The governor of the state of hawaii has blamed human errorfor a mobile phone alert sent to residents warning of an imminent missile attack. The false alarm caused widespread panic and included the words this is not a drill. A corrected text message wasnt sent out until 38 minutes later. Bill hayton reports. For around half an hour on sunday, the people of hawaii looked unjustly to disguise. On a university campus, stu d e nts to disguise. On a university campus, students ran for emergency shelters. An official text warned residents to prepare the worst. People powered in bathrooms or took what cover they could. We all huddled together. We thought, if this is going to be the end, we are in a beautiful place, doing something we love. But it was pretty scary, i tell you. You start hearing stories about what was going on at waikiki beach, they were evacuating hotels, children being pushed into drainpipes. Was a north Korean Nuclear missile about to hit honolulu . Actually, Korean Nuclear missile about to hit honolulu . Actually, no. Korean Nuclear Missile about to hit honolulu . Actually, no. The whole thing that was the result of a stunningly simple mistake. At eight oi stunningly simple mistake. At eight or7am, stunningly simple mistake. At eight or 7am, thats when the trigger is pulled on the test. The wrong button was pushed on this test. It went into an actual event versus a test. There is theory on hawaii at the click of a Single Button could be responsible for so much panic. That anger is directed towards the state government. I know firsthand that what happens today was totally unacceptable. And many in our community were deeply affected by this. And i am sorry for that pain and confusion that anyone might have experienced. Last month, in response to north koreas missile and nuclear tests, hawaii reinstated its warning sirens for the First Time Since the end of the cold war. At least eve ryo ne end of the cold war. At least everyone now knows the system works, but that is small comfort for the millions who thought their world was about to end on saturday. Ryan ozawa, a journalist from honolulu, described the moment the alert went off. The standard state wide Emergency Alert system went off on everyones cellphones. Even going over to the tv and radio waves, that there was an incoming ballistic missile. It is not a drill, take shelter, get off the roads. About as harrowing as you can possibly imagine. We have been watching the headlines with arguments and debate over how big the button is on someones desk. It widely, they had been in the news a few months ago as they were starting to put in place emergency contingency plans for this possible scenario. We were certain, we certainly have that in the back of oui certainly have that in the back of our minds when the alert came in. Its interesting to hear what the governor and head of our emergency imagine Management Department said, but it was a shift change, happened three times a day, but it only took one person and one button to send out that alerts. Obviously theyre going to have to work on their procedures, to prevent Something Like that happening again. I thought it was going to be a quiet day. Birds were chirping, blue skies. I froze day. Birds were chirping, blue skies. Ifroze for day. Birds were chirping, blue skies. I froze for several seconds just trying to imagine it actually happening. Rahm points, basically rallying my family. I gathered my wife and two of my three kids. My youngest son was still sleeping and i decided that i would like to sleep, something which i am now rethinking. We went to the living room, i brought my mum in and we tried to stay away from windows, turn on the tv. Nothing that College Basketball and infomercials. Looking for some kind of a cremation. The local media didnt get up to speed very quickly, so it turned out it was just watching twitter and seeing our representatives in washington, dc declaring that it was a false alarm, long before the state news catalysis same thing.
