Mankind. Its 50 years today since Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. England hope to reach their first netball World Cup Final today. They face new zealand this afternoon. And coming up with knife crime reaching record levels in england and wales, we look at the impact it is having on the streets. The foreign secretaryjeremy hunt has summoned the most senior diplomat in the uk to the foreign 0ffice diplomat in the uk to the Foreign Office after the iranians revolutionary guard sees an oil tanker last night. The government has advised uk ships to stay out of the area out of the strait of hormuz foran the area out of the strait of hormuz for an interim period, after a meeting of the Emergency Committee last night. State media in tehran says that tanker had violated International Maritime rules but their sweeps the owner, the swedish company, said the tanker was in full compliance with all navigation and international regulations. The foreign secretary says the seizure was unacceptable and prettys response would be considered but robust. Paul adams reports. Iran says the stena impero and its multinational crew, which does not include any britons, is now being held at the port of bandar abbas. The authorities there say the tanker is being investigating following an accident involving a fishing boat. The ships owners have not confirmed this and say no rules were broken. The stena impero was making its way through the Narrow Strait of hormuz in International Waters when it was intercepted by helicopter and several small boats. It made a sharp turn north towards iran. Its last reported position a few miles south west of the iranian island of larak. We will respond in a way that is considered but robust, and we are absolutely clear that if this situation is not resolved quickly, they will be serious consequences. A second tanker, the mesdar was also detained, but only briefly. It is now making its way towards a port in saudi arabia. But concerns over the safety of shipping are arising. I dont think the raising of tensions further is in anybodys interest, they will be no winners, if thats the case. So, we call for caution, we call for de escalation so that we can restore some sort of confidence and security in the busy waters in the region so that ships and see bearers can carry on doing their business supporting global trade. Earlier this month, Royal Marines detained a tanker full of iranian oil off gibraltar. The grace i was accused of Smuggling Oil to syria in breach of eu sanctions. Iran called it an act of piracy and threatened to respond in kind. The tanker is still being held. I think they want their tanker and their crude oil out of gibraltar because it is worth a great deal of money. They want to establish the position firmly that the United Kingdom is not seeking to enforce us sanctions. Yesterday, iran released these pictures showing American Warships sailing through the strait of hormuz. Washington said it had brought down and iranians surveillance drone, iran said the pictures proved otherwise. What they do show is a waterway crowded with military and commercial vessels. A fifth of the worlds oil passes this way, and its getting more dangerous. A senior permit has been summoned. What can you tell us about this latest diplomatic move . As you say, the Senior Iranian diplomat is due at the Foreign Office this afternoon for the political director meeting. That encounter is expected to be quite tense. Earlier today, the Foreign Office put out a statement in which it says it was deeply concerned by irans unacceptable actions and warned there could be serious consequences if the situation is not resolved. They will also be another cobra emergency meeting this afternoon to discuss how to proceed in such a volatile situation. Jeremy hunt, the foreign secretary, is hoping to speak to his iranian counterpart. Earlier, he tweeted that iran may be choosing a dangerous path and stressed the reaction would be considered but robust. Clearly, rhetoric will play an Important Role with how this plays out because mr hunt has already ruled out using military intervention, he is hoping to use diplomacy instead. The us is trying to pull together an International Coalition to condemn the situation. France and germany have already called on iran to release the british tanker immediately. Meanwhile, the british ships have been warned to avoid the area, but the threat to uk shipping in iranian waters in the gulf remains critical. There has been a fair amount of International Reaction to this as well. What options do they realistically have on the table if jeremy hunt has said there will be no military intervention . Well, as they say, it is the rhetoric, being concerned and serious consequences if the situation is not resolved. There are so many meetings here, the emergency meeting with cobra, talking to the iranian counterpart, using words, really to resolve this peacefully and again hoping to get the backing of the rest of europe, obviously, britain and europe are in quite a dilemma, quite a difficult situation, they are still signed up to the nuclear agreement, they are going to be hoping to make the situation any worse, not wanting to escalate a volatile situation. Situation any worse, not wanting to escalate a volatile situationlj wa nt to ta ke escalate a volatile situationlj want to take you back to last week, we had very early and words via twitter from jeremy hunt and his iranian counterpart about the state of the grace one tanker which britain had been said was heading toward syria. What happened to that . There were words about hoping to resolve the situation quite quickly. Yes, as i understand it, that tanker is still being held and gibraltar is giving itan is still being held and gibraltar is giving it an extension so that was the situation, you may remember, where Royal Marines helped season iranian tanker that was suspected of carrying oil to syria, that would have breached eu sanctions, so that has been held up and that extension has been held up and that extension has been held up and that extension has been granted so that is still a situation unknown. Now, whether theyll use that as a negotiating tool remains to be seen. And clearly it is about talking with their iranian counterparts and obviously, asi iranian counterparts and obviously, as i say, these meetings here later this afternoon to work out how to proceed, what are they options of military intervention is off the table . Thank you very much. We are speaking to our correspondent who is monitoring the situation from beirut. We understand the iranian charge daffaires has been southern in london. What is the latest reaction . The iranians have been clear about their message and they have made it clear that what happened is a violation of International Maritime regulations which the ship owners have denied, and they said they havent been involved in any violations of the regulations. But obviously for iran, this is also a reaction to what the uk did earlier this month with the seizure of the oil tanker, the uk says it was intending to transport oil to syria, which is a violation of the eu sanctions on syria. This isa of the eu sanctions on syria. This is a big economic burden on tehran. They want their tanker removed, they wa nt they want their tanker removed, they want it moved, actually. And they wa nt want it moved, actually. And they want their oil as well. Iran is facing a terrible Economic Situation with their renewed sanctions of the us on them, and this is leveraged for them to negotiate and to have a way to find the solution for their economic problems. But also to treat the uk with a tit for tat after the seizure of their oil tanker earlier this month. It would appear that iran really has nothing to lose now. Just how hard. You described terrible economic hardship. Everyday life, take us through what those sanctions are doing to iranians . Well, it is definitely a difficult situation on an economic level, you can fill it across the region where iran is involved with other countries like syria and his brother, the money is shrinking. But also ordinary life, it is becoming difficult. Although you get a census defiance, against us actions and sanctions on iran, but of course there is a difference between the people in the government, and also bid on the government, there is the revolutionary guard, the hardline ones, the ones in charge of the seizure of the british tanker today. But the whole country is feeling the pressure of the economic sanctions. This action by tehran today, as you rightly said, they have nothing to lose by pushing the boundaries and asking for an equal treatment and getting their tanker released by the uk. The chairman of the high speed 2 rail project has reportedly warned that its cost could rise by £30 billion. The Financial Times says allan cook has written to the department for transport, saying the project cannot be completed for the official budget of 56 billion pounds. Hs2 a new high speed line linking london, birmingham, manchester and leeds was already set to cost a hefty sum £56 billion. And in recent months, there has been a growing acceptance at the Company Building hs2 that the project is likely to cost more. Now, with work on the line between birmingham and london already under way, and £5 billion spent so far, a report saying hs2 could cost an extra £30 billion. According to the Financial Times, the chairman of hs2, who is carrying out a review of cost and schedule, has written to the government, warning the new rail line cannot be built within budget and could cost between £70 85 billion. The government says the new high speed line is needed because the west coast main line between london, birmingham and manchester is already crowded. Both the department for transport and hs2 said the review into the cost of the project was ongoing. They wouldnt comment on this latest report, but it comes at a sensitive time. Borisjohnson says he will carry out his own review if he becomes Prime Minister next week. He has said the projects costs are spiralling out of control. Some say the high speed line is vital to link the north of england to the midlands and to london. But many question whether its value for money, and if it gets even more expensive, that case will be harder to make. Police are hunting for two men after gas was released on a London Underground train this morning. They have released cctv images of two young white men they want to trace. A number of people were treated at Oxford Circus by paramedics. Officers say their symptoms suggested that cs gas was used. The metropolitan police say they are still trying to work out what happened to their twitter account after it appeared to be hacked. A series of messages appeared on the forces official account last night. It has more than a million followers. 0fficers said they were assessing to establish what criminal offences have been committed over the security breach. Ministers have promised to put an end to the use of so called poor doors in newly built blocks of flats in england. Planning permission can be conditional on developers building some social Housing Units in private developments. The communities secretary, james brokenshire, says separate doors stigmatise social housing tenants, and divide them from private residents. Labour has set out plans to stop private Companies ProvidingCouncil Services in england. Shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell says if the party wins the next election, outsourcing of work such as rubbish collections, would end within five years. Susanna mendonca reports. Who should be responsible for local Services Like bin collections, your local councils or the private companies they might be paying to do it for them . It is called outsourcing, a practice that was supposed to make it cheaper and more efficient to deliver local services, but labour says its led to councils often paying a high price for a poorjob and if it were in government, it would bring an end to most outsourcing in English Councils within five years. To put it simply, the Business Model of outsourcing failed and is broken, and thats why it needs replacing. So after year upon year of failures, the public themselves have lost confidence in the privatisation of our Public Services and the carve up of the public realm for, well, for private profit. Labour points to the collapse of the construction giant carillion last year which saw work on its public contracts, like this super hospital in birmingham, come to a grinding halt when it went out of business. Bringing local Authority Services back in house is just one of the policy ideas labour is rolling out as it prepares for a possible general election, but a government spokesman said it should be for councils to decide which services to let private companies run, notjohn mcdonnell. Susana mendonca, bbc news. The headlines on bbc news. A Senior Iranian diplomat is summoned to the Foreign Office following the seizure of a british flagged tanker in the gulf. The chairman of the high speed 2 rail project reportedly warns that its cost could rise by thirty billion pounds. And its fifty years ago today that man first landed on the moon. Police in hong kong say theyve seized a large amount of explosives ahead of a weekend of marches by both pro and anti china demonstrators. Officers found two kilogrammes of a powerful explosive as well as petrol bombs, acidic substances and knives. Theyve arrested a 27 year old man whos understood to be a member of the Hong Kong National front, which advocates independence from china. Police say theyre trying to determine whether the hoard is related to this weekends protests. 0ur china correspondent Stephen Mcdonnell has been following developments. These are the protests who have come out today to support the government and the police force. The police force has been criticised here for a very heavy handed approach to the mass rallies in support of democracy and opposing this very unpopular extradition bill allowing potentially for extradition to mainline china, controlled by the communist party. On the same day as having this rally, which is winding up having this rally, which is winding up here today, protesterfrom having this rally, which is winding up here today, protester from a Pro Independence group has been arrested for having explosives. And the police say he had ten molotov cocktails in a storage area. This will fuel the criticism in certain circles that hong kongs political crisis is moving into new potentially more wine in phase, and we saw that last weekend and we may see it again tomorrow. More violent phase. There will be a much larger valley than this next week in favour of democracy. Todays rally, nothing as big as the pro democracy ones, but nevertheless thousands of people have been there, they are turning out here with their posters. Ididnt turning out here with their posters. I didnt say they are not peaceful people. There is an anti immediate feeling amongst. Amongst these crowds. Partly because they dont like the reporting that were doing. There is nothing fake about what we are saying, sorry, iam there is nothing fake about what we are saying, sorry, i am just talking about what is happening. Tell me what you like. What is the problem with what i have said . It is not real. You said that there is more violence. No, someone has been arrested today with explosive. Thank you. Anyway, we will have another rally tomorrow, and it could deteriorate like last weekend, into more crashes. There are fears that both sides are now, sort of, have scores to settle, if you like, and so there has been predictions that it could be the use of water and the like tomorrow, very large crowd tomorrow, a pro democracy crowd expected to gather here, and, yes, it could well deteriorate into yet more running clashes. As the old adage claims, those in pursuit of success need only an Endless Supply of persistence. But several learner drivers in the uk have taken the try, try again mantra to new levels, according to data from the driving and vehicle standards agency. A couple of wannabe motorists racked up at least 20 practical tests in a single calendar year. Joining me now via webcam from south london is mark winn dvsa chief driving examiner. Thank you for speaking to us here on bbc news. They are not giving up, are they . They failing . Is the test getting harder . It isnt getting harder, we change it recently to get it more realistic and more representative of real World Driving conditions. I think they are failing because theyre not getting enough training or practice before they they take the test. What other interesting statistics can you take us interesting statistics can you take us through . Those figures are incredible. I think the average is 15 tests, is that right . Of those people that have taken repeated tests, yes, they have taken between 15 and i9 tests, yes, they have taken between 15 and 19 tests in that period of time. Most people, if you take the average across everybody who takes their driving test, it is between one and one and a half times that they take their test. We shouldnt lose sight of the 19,000 people who took past took their test and didnt make any mistakes at all. We need to keep it in perspective. What has changed . Need to keep it in perspective. What has changed . When i took my test, it was a lot cheaper, but also i think the roads have changed. What are the new skills that drivers are having to learn . These days, as well as driving and dealing with the increase in the traffic volume, new drivers have to driving dependently for about 20 minutes. Most of them are asked to follow directions from are asked to follow directions from a satnav device during their test, this makes sure they can plan and be aware and drive independently without support from anywhere else. An important vital skill once they pass their test. How is it, then, that it says you dont matter if you go the wrong way to mark driving test isnt about navigation are learning the right way, learning a test route, it is about whether you can drive safely, interact with other traffic on the right way. Examiners dont mind if you go the wrong way on your driving test, as long as you do it safely. 0k, parallel parking, on the right hand side, reversed two car lengths and driver. What is the of that . Again, it is about making sure that our driving test reflects real world conditions. If you want to park on the right hand side of the road because that is where your house is all that is where the local shops, people will pull up and park on the right, so this gives us the opportunity to make sure our new drivers can do the skill safely. It isa drivers can do the skill safely. It is a big like the forward bay parking, as well as making sure that learners can reverse into a parking space, the driving test these days contains a manoeuvre whether they can drive forward into a parking space and back out again. Someone might question whether that is that idea or not but it is what i do when ido idea or not but it is what i do when i do shopping because it makes loading their shopping easier. Its about the driving test reflecting real world conditions. About the driving test reflecting realworld conditions. 0k, a lot of people are saying the gps system, sometimes we rely on it too much, we actually switch off from what is going on around us on that road, is an element of that included in the test . As well as responding to the gps, the satnav, new drivers also have to relate that to the real World Driving they are seeing in front of them and the picture that is going on. The satnav device will give them some basic directions on how to get through the hazards that they are expected to deal with but they are expected to deal with but they need to think and plan for themselves and drive independently to be able to get through. And is there any consideration of the growth of electric cars . Is that going to change the way we drive and the driving test we will be taking . You could take your test in an electric cart now. We have hybrids coming up and being presented the driving tests on a regular basis nowadays. As we see more mainstream vehicles becoming electric cars, we will see more and more of that. We will see more and more of that. We will also see more connected and Autonomous Vehicles are starting to come into mainstream use so the driving test itself will continue to evolve and adapt and keep up to face with a new technology, as it develops. Thank you very much indeed.
