Good friday agreement was signed, cementing peace in northern ireland. Now, the dow up brexit supporting politicians think it should be rewritten. Some say is reckless. We will hear the irish governments view. Now there are brexit supporting politicians who think that. Good evening and welcome to bbc news. The United Nations says its deeply concerned about the fate of hundreds of thousands of people in the syrian district of Eastern Ghouta, which is still under rebel control. Syrian Government Forces have carried out some of the heaviest bombardments of recent years, supported by the russian military. Activists say that in the past three days of airstrikes and artillery fire, some 200 people, including children, have been killed in Eastern Ghouta. This report by our middle east editor, jeremy bowen, contains some distressing images. This could be the beginning of the end of a rebellion in Eastern Ghouta that began in 2012. All the other smaller rebel held enclaves around damascus have been starved and bombed into submission. Explosion, screaming. Now, it looks to be Eastern Ghoutas turn as the regime pushes for decisive victory around the capital. Screaming sirens activists in Eastern Ghouta say this is as bad as its been. You can hear the shout and crying of women and children through the windows of their homes and the missiles and mortars dropping on us like rain. There is nowhere to hide from this nightmare in Eastern Ghouta. A generation has been born into the war. Dozens have been killed by it in the last few hours in Eastern Ghouta. Over the years of siege, theyve set up a network of underground hospitals. This girl, named in arabic angel, escaped the worst, but will have to go back to the streets to get home. And this is her area. Explosions with a regime plane dropping what appears to be a barrel bomb, unguided an indiscriminate killer. The Syrian Regime denies attacking civilians. It says its trying to liberate Eastern Ghouta from terrorists. Eastern ghouta is a sprawling mix of concrete suburbs and farmland, starting about nine miles east of Damascus City centre. The Syrian Rebels who have controlled it since 2012 include several islamist militias, including one with its roots in alqaeda. Eastern ghouta is surrounded by syrian Government Forces. Before the war, it was just a short drive from the syrian president ial palace. Officially, its been designated a de escalation zone, that is an empty phrase. Force decides what happens in syria. After seven years, syrias war isnt ending, but its changing. President assad, with the help of russia and iran, is now secure, but syria is linked into a web of war and power politics, which guarantees more bloodshed. How many times in the last seven years have syrians dug through the rubble for survivors . Theres talk of safe corridors out for civilians, but, based on past form, the regime wants victory in Eastern Ghouta and the surrender of the rebels. Jeremy bowen, bbc news. The Charity Oxfam is now investigating 26 allegations of Sexual Misconduct which have been reported since allegations were made against some of its workers in haiti. The charitys leaders were questioned today by a Parliamentary Committee at westminster when they admitted that thousands of people had cancelled their monthly donations since the the scandal broke, as our Diplomatic CorrespondentJames Landale reports. In 2010, haiti was flooded with aid workers, most there to help the country recover from the earthquake. But seven men from 0xfam were also hiring prostitutes and bullying colleagues, men who were eventually dismissed or allowed to resign. Today, the charitys most Senior Executives were summoned to parliament to explain what had gone on and why 0xfam hadnt been more open and done more to stop it happening again. Sorry wasnt the half of it. I am sorry we are sorry for the damage that 0xfam has done. On behalf of the council of oxfam, that we are ashamed of what happened in haiti, we dont think it was well handled. Please allow me to begin by saying how sorry i am about what has happened. Lam ashamed. In particular, 0xfams chief executive apologised for suggesting the criticism the charity was getting was disproportionate, saying it wasnt as if babies had been murdered in their cots. I do apologise. I was thinking under stress. I had given many interviews, i had made many decisions to try and lead 0xfams response to this. 0xfam, he admitted, had not been explicit about what went on, and was now paying a price. 7000 people had cancelled their regular donations in the past ten days. Corporate sponsors were reserving judgment. And. How many more revelations have come to your notice . Across 0xfam great britain, we have had about 26 stories, reports, come to us, that were either new reports come out as a result of the stories, or earlier stories, where people said, i didnt necessarily report this at the time. Mps just couldnt hide their frustration. You as an organisation are dealing with these women and girls as if they are just trinkets, and you can pay for them and give them a bit of aid and thats ok. And you dont, when you know about it, the organisation does not report it to the haitian authorities. Thats pretty shocking. Its really heartbreaking that. It is. That we are in this situation. But i want to assure you that we are not doing nothing. From our point of view, does it not look like oxfam was more interested in protecting its own brand than protecting Vulnerable Women and girls . It may look like that, mr law. I cant do anything other than say i think it was wrong. I am conscious of the fact you didnt hold responsibility at the time. The Committee Chairman said he would now hold a full enquiry, the fourth that 0xfam is now facing, to ensure it gets its house in order. So, 0xfam is apologising to mps, its being more transparent. But what is clear from todays evidence is that to recover public trust it will have to change a culture that tolerated the exploitation of Vulnerable Women. Thank you, mr speaker. In the commons, 0xfam was warned that if new safeguarding procedures were not in place by the end of next week, then current government funding could be cut. The uk government reserves the right to take whatever decisions about present or future funding to oxfam or any other organisation we deem necessary. The real test will come, of course, not in haiti but the next time there is another Natural Disaster and the worlds aid industry is deployed once again. James landale, bbc news. James landale reporting. The brexit secretary has tried to reassure the eu that the uk wont pursue a radical programme of deregulation after britain leaves the European Union. David davis told Business Leaders in vienna that the uk wants to promote rights and standards. Labour says the assurance from mr davis is not worth the paper its written on. 0ur chief Political Correspondent vicky young reports. The uk has decided to carve out a different path to the European Union. But ministers dont seem to be preparing for a sharp change in direction. The message here in vienna was more about reassurance. David davis denying accusations from labour that the government plans to sweep away rules that protect workers or the environment. They fear that brexit could lead to an anglo saxon race to the bottom. With britain plunged into a mad max style world borrowed from dystopian fiction. These fears about a race to the bottom are based on nothing. He argued that high standards could help ensure trade with the eu remained as frictionless as possible, with both sides recognising each others rules and institutions. Some of the Business Leaders in the audience who want to keep close ties to britain were encouraged by mr davis words. I think his tone is now different to what it was maybe one year ago. In reality, hopefully it will bring us together. In the end, there will be closer relationships between the eu and the uk, otherwise nobody will win. David davis words today are a far cry from what many in his own party have been saying about the need to break away from the burden of eu red tape thats been stifling British Business for decades. He prefers to talk now about ongoing cooperation and mutual trust with the European Union after brexit. But tonight, signs that some tory mps have their doubts about the governments approach. More than 60 eurosceptic mps have written a letter to theresa may, calling for her to grasp the opportunities of brexit, urging her to stand firm in negotiations and make sure britain really does have the power to make its own decisions. Labour says it is the cabinet that needs to make up its mind. The problem is that you got david davis saying one thing, borisjohnson saying Something Else and the Prime Minister saying almost nothing. Its got to be resolved. And thats the aim of thursdays meeting of senior cabinet ministers. David davis says he is certain a good deal with the eu is on the cards, but discord amongst his colleagues needs to be dealt with first. Vicki young, bbc news, vienna.

A financially troubled local authority has been warned by its auditors that it should not sign off its budget as it may be breaking the law.

Now on bbc news, its time for newsnight with evan. A day like today is not a day for soundbites. We will leave those at home. Ifeel the hand of history on our shoulder, i really do, and i just think we need to acknowledge that and respond to it. Maybe it is impossible to find a way through, maybe with the best faith in the world you cannot do it, but it is right to try. That was two decades ago the people voted, and the good friday agreement was signed, cementing the peace in northern ireland. Now with brexit on its way comes the idea that the agreement is flawed. Theres no question that these brextremists, in their hard line support for a particular dogmatic position of brexit, are actually playing with fire, theyre in danger in the peace process, and they could incite dissident ira groups. A new potential strain on relations between the unionists
