Why nearly one Million People across england and wales lost power yesterday National Grid says it will learn lessons. What we saw yesterday evening was an exceptionally rare event, one we have not seen since 2008, but we will be looking very hard at what happened to make sure that we minimise disruption in future. The us financier Jeffrey Epstein whose acqauintances included President Trump and Prince Andrew is found dead in his prison cell in new york while awaiting trial on child sex trafficking charges. Wet and windy conditions cause disruption to travellers, with the west coast mainline hit by flooding. Michael gove says therell be a bail out fund for businesses hit by brexit. The family of a 15 Year Old Girl missing in malaysia thank the search teams who are scouring the jungle for her. More than a Million People are evacuated from their homes as a powerful typhoon hits china. Now on bbc news, its time for the highlights of the week from the Victoria Derbyshire show. Hello, welcome. Over the next half hour we will show you some of the highlights from our programme of the highlights from our programme of the last week. We start with a story from one of our viewers who the programme. Vicki, not her real name, is from birmingham and was adopted. When she turned 18 she requested her records from social services and hope of finding her biological pa rents. Hope of finding her biological parents. That is when she found out she was conceived by rape, and started her fight to she was conceived by rape, and started herfight to have herfather prosecuted. In our exclusive film, her words are spoken for her to protect her identity, you may not wa nt protect her identity, you may not want your children to watch, it last for around eight minutes. My name is vicky. I was conceived by rape. I was born in birmingham in the 70s and adopted when i was seven months old. Growing up, i always wanted to find my birth mother. It is almost like she had been a ghost in my life, knowing there was somebody who had given birth to you, who was alive, walking around, when i hit my 18th birthday i was determined to get the files. That is when i was told by a social worker, and i saw in black and white in my files that my conception was a result of rape. My my conception was a result of rape. My birth mother had been 13, a schoolgirl. My birth father, a family friend who was 35. The record said that she had gone to babysit at his house and he raped her. To find out that you have been born to a horrendous act of violence against a child, and that people knew, it says in seven different places in the files that it was rape. The fact that she was 13 means it was statutory rape, because he had six with a minor. It states his name and address, that social services and police and Health Workers knew, but nothing was done about it. My birth mother was from a black working class family, and i cannot help thinking attitudes at the time had something to do with that. It made me feel angry. Devastated for my birth mother, for me. And i remember thinking, well my birth mother ever wa nt to thinking, well my birth mother ever want to meet me . I trace my birth mother with support from my adopted father and i found her. Mother with support from my adopted father and ifound her. Seeing the photo of herfor father and ifound her. Seeing the photo of her for the first time was incredible. It was like looking into a mirror. I rememberas incredible. It was like looking into a mirror. I remember as meeting when i was about 20. I walked off the train as she was there. I can only imagine how she must have felt seeing me there is an adult. She said that she had always hoped i would find her. But it wasnt some soft focus moments are loving embrace. It was just. Soft focus moments are loving embrace. It wasjust. Really surreal. It wasnt until decades later when thejimmy it wasnt until decades later when the jimmy savile it wasnt until decades later when thejimmy savile case and other historic cases were in the news that i really thought about trying to do anything about it. I had always thought it was so wrong that my birth father was never prosecuted. It was then that i thought, i have got dna evidence. Because i am dna evidence. I am a walking crime scene. I get is all written in the files, surely people are going to ta ke files, surely people are going to take me seriously. And it is all. I wanted him to be held accountable. I wanted him to be held accountable. I wanted justice for my mum, i wa nted i wanted justice for my mum, i wanted justice for me. The ramifications of what he chose to do have shaped my entire life. Sorry. You think i would get sick of crying. And he has been able to get away with it and just live his life. My away with it and just live his life. My birth mother made it very clear that she had reported that it was rape at the time. And people hadnt listened to her then, so why would they listen now . More than a0 years have passed, and she. Well, she doesnt want to go through it all again. But she supports me pursuing it. I have contacted so many people, police, social workers, solicitors, mps. They just say, police, social workers, solicitors, mps. Theyjust say, you are not the victim. Because of that crime, i am alive. My whole life has been dictated by it. But no one will seem yea rs dictated by it. But no one will seem years the victim. I am living, breathing proof of a child rapist, and nobody is interested start how is that ok . My my birth fathers name is on my files. So i traced him. I was getting nowhere with the police. Eventually i decided to go to his address. Ijust eventually i decided to go to his address. I just remember the eventually i decided to go to his address. Ijust remember the nerves, my heart was pounding, i was sweating. This man, like a ghost, he has done the most heinous act, and this is who im going to meet. He came to the front door and i just said, hello, i beefi came to the front door and i just said, hello, i beef i am your daughter. I believe i am. He said, oh, come in. And that was it. It was the most surreal a0 minutes of my life. I remember saying to him, well, did you have six with her . If you didnt, we dont need to be having this conversation. And he just said that just be having this conversation. And he just said thatjust because you have sex with someone, does it mean you make a baby, and so that to me was he had just confirmed dead. I would you not deny it . Why would you not. I noticed theres photo on the wall of a girl, maybe about 12 years old. Ijust sort wall of a girl, maybe about 12 years old. I just sort of said, who wall of a girl, maybe about 12 years old. Ijust sort of said, who is that . It was as great granddaughter 01 someone, that . It was as great granddaughter or someone, and that made me feel absolutely sick. I mean, who is protecting her . I found absolutely sick. I mean, who is protecting her . Ifound out that there had been victimless prosecutions for rape, when people dont feel able to report it, because of the nature of the crime. But there is evidence. I want the police to look at the files, id at least consider a victimless prosecution in my case. I dont want the definition of victim to be reviewed. And i want the definition. This has nearly beating me down. Being adopted comes with so many difficulties. And the trauma of this has affected every part of my life. But i will persevere, because i know this is so wrong, and i want justice. So i am not going to go away. If you have been affected by theissues away. If you have been affected by the issues in that film, there is a range of organisations to offer you support. You confide in on the bbc action line website. You can find. More than 253,000 people have signed a petition, qualified legal aid to be provided to all families at inquests into terror attacks. It was set up a month ago by the boyfriend of nurse kirsty bowden, known as the angel of London Bridge. She was started trying to save the life of another victim of the june 2017 attack. James holder is fighting for all families involved in similar attacks, fighting for all families involved in similarattacks, including fighting for all families involved in similar attacks, including those of the Manchester Arena, to be given legal aid for the inquest. Anyone who met her, whetherfor a brief moment are longer, with always remember her. She loved life, she loved people, obviously she was a nurse, so loved people, obviously she was a nurse, so she loved helping people, both professionally and then her personal life. She just had such a zest for life. Now that that has gone from myself and michael tupacs familys lives, it is incredibly difficult to carry on with life without that. What was kirsty doing when she herself was attacked . She was trying to help the waiter of the bistro, who had been stabbed in the neck and was obviously bleeding from that wound. She came to his aid as she put a cloth on his neck to try and stem the bleeding. It was at that moment that the three terrorists came across her, despite the fact that they came across her she still did not run, she stayed with alexander and they swarmed her and stabbed to death. With alexander and they swarmed her and stabbed to deathlj with alexander and they swarmed her and stabbed to death. I dont know how you cope with that. You dont, to be honest, you take it one day at a time. Ijust try to be honest, you take it one day at a time. I just try to to be honest, you take it one day at a time. Ijust try to get on as best you can. You have just gone through the inquest, and that was really difficult for you. Just expire to oui difficult for you. Just expire to our audience. The inquest was almost torture. That sounds like an extreme word, but it was. We had to wait two yea rs word, but it was. We had to wait two years for the inquest to start, in which time we were obviously grieving for kirsty ad be could continue that process i told the inquest started. The inquest itself went on for two months. In which you have to relive the worst night of your life in extreme detail any public forum repeatedly. So you have to look at cctv footage, photos of the crime scene, coroners reports, witness testimony of kirstys last moments. It is literally torture for anyone that has been through that. At the end of that process, the government has then turned around to me and all the other families on London Bridge and said, you should pay for this, all the legal phase that you have racked up, you are the ones who will pay for it. What the ministry ofjustice say is that they appreciate how on the face of it not providing grieving families with legal aid for an inquest, because it is not in the public interest, may seem is not in the public interest, may seem strange, but they say an inquest is designed to be about fact finding and establishing the truth rather than being adversarial and as a consequence they say legal representation is rarely necessary. It isa representation is rarely necessary. It is a pathetic excuse. I can see that working in inquest of a smaller size, fair enough. But for an inquest the size of one like London Bridge, which goes on for two months in which for example the home secretary himself had three qcs representing himself and his office, there were eight separate public officers, all with their own legal team, who were there for the whole process. As we know at least one of the killers families got legal aid, so the killers families got legal aid, so everyone has got lawyers. It is a lawyer first. You dont have to tailor is, but how much was spent on legal fees from yourself . We dont know exactly about hundreds of thousands, because it is notjust the inquest, it is leading up to it as well, the legal team have to prepare themselves. They went through over 10,000 documents over a weeks worth of cctv, just to put together the starting point of the inquest. How would you possibly do that on your own without help from a legal professional . It is impossible. The families of the Manchester Arena attacks are about to go through this. What is your message to the newjustice secretary . What do you want to say to him . I want to meet him face to face. He can have whoever he wa nts face to face. He can have whoever he wants with him in the room, but i wa nt wants with him in the room, but i want him to explain to me why he fixed it is not necessary to give state funded aid to victims like ours. Face to face, iam going state funded aid to victims like ours. Face to face, i am going to spain to him why i think he is wrong. So we can get theirs changed before the manchester inquest starts. What happens when an mp is unable to do theirjob . What is the impact on their constituents . We have been to Sheffield Hallam where the local mp has said he is unfit to continue. That was after his chief of staff apparently use the mps official twitter account to denounce his boss as selfish and degenerate and to accuse him of letting his constituents down. What has really been going on, and what do his constituents make of it . Our reporter has been to sheffield to find out. Just a warning, there is Strong Language just after three and a half minutes. 21,000. Cheering jared omara took the seat from nick clegg, one of the biggest shocks of the 2017 general election, an unknown 35 year old bar owner who had campaigned for disability rights had campaigned for disability rights had ousted the deputy prime minister, riding a wave of ill feeling over tuition fees. But that was about as good as it got for the constituencys first ever labour mp. Last month, for the second time, he said he was cutting back on his mp duties. He also told journalists he had made three attempts to take his own life. This is a story about the impact on his constituents. There must be a process to make sure that every constituent has an elected Member Parliament that is actually effective in doing the job. On the labour party. I cant imagine people will be too quick to vote for labouragain in this people will be too quick to vote for labour again in this constituency. At whetherjared omara has been used by those who were supposed to be helping. People have joked to me that i was basically the mp for Sheffield Hallam. Because he was so not here basically. Jared omara was born with cerebral palsy, at last year he told the media she had been diagnosed with autism. He has spoken openly about the difficulties of being a disabled mp and his Mental Health problems. When allegedly sexist, homophobic and misogynistic, is he had made before he entered politics surfaced, he was first suspended and then quit the party. But he didnt say that he would step down as an mp until his friend and recently appointed chief of staff used omaras twitter account to publicly destroy the mps character. Gareth arnold took to twitter to resign and denounce his boss as a degenerate who had let his constituents down. It was, it seems, the final straw. This is arnold. He initially agreed to be interviewed and invited us to film 13 moving offices. When we arrived, he changed his mind, saying he didnt want to be part of the story. But the following day he did give and interview the bbc podcast the next episode. I am just interview the bbc podcast the next episode. I amjust a man interview the bbc podcast the next episode. I am just a man with a job description. I am episode. I am just a man with a job description. Iam running episode. I am just a man with a job description. I am running this office. Nobody has vetted you. I dont have a security clearance. Self described trawl and a little provocative, arnold says he has an old drinking partner of jared provocative, arnold says he has an old drinking partner ofjared omara from their days on sheffields late night bar scene. He was brought injust eight late night bar scene. He was brought in just eight weeks ago to sort out the mps communications. Referring to his brutal twitter ta ke down the mps communications. Referring to his brutal twitter take down of jared omara, arnold told me she publicly burned his boss to put the mp out of his misery. He said it was like seeing a land by the side of the road with a half broken neck, stamping on the ground as if to kill the animal. He joked, stamping on the ground as if to kill the animal. Hejoked, it is stamping on the ground as if to kill the animal. He joked, it is what you have to do. And strangely foreign mps medications officer, he tried to direct me to the most vocal critics of his friend and boss. And he told me it is him, notjared omara, who has been blocking constituents from contacting the mp on twitter. Something those constituents have only complained about happening since arnold took control of the twitter account. If you are going to be eight white, he told me, you are going get blocked. If told me, you are going get blocked. If you going to be a twit. Jodi ga rcetti if you going to be a twit. Jodi garcetti p Facebook Group for people worried about their lack of political representation. She says people were blocked for asking a legitimate questions of their mp. People were blocked for asking a legitimate questions of their mpw was one of the ways of contacting him, so by blocking them they didnt have that. It was just shutting down constituents who were trying to reach out. On a lot of his tweets, it is difficult to know which came from him and which came from his medications officer, seemed almost to ridicule us. He blocked quite a lot of our members in the first instance, some people who were calling him up on his bad behaviour. Hejust replied calling him up on his bad behaviour. He just replied with various means and gifts. If you look through his twitter feed, there is and gifts. If you look through his twitterfeed, there is this and gifts. If you look through his twitter feed, there is this thing about having a statement and the one before says, if i had a dog, i would name him stephen. Justin buxton is a Labour Party Member who says he questioned omara in person about his unorthodox use of twitter and that the mp told him he had nothing to do with it. It was all arnold. This year jarrett has to do with it. It was all arnold. This yearjarrett has not done any tweets, it has all been Gareth Arnold, his so called chief of staff who has been taking over the twitter account. But what are the motivations of Gareth Arnold . When i met him, he showed me what he said was his tory Party Membership card. He said he had been a memberfor five years, id be seen a tweet from him suggesting Jeremy Corbyn should have been murdered instead of the labourmpjo have been murdered instead of the labour mp jo cox. It have been murdered instead of the labour mpjo cox. It is not clear exactly what role Gareth Arnold played all is continuing to play in jared omaras offers. Labour sources claim arnold is manipulating jared for his own anc, an allegation arnold says is laughable. Jared omara says he intends to resign after the summer, saying he is in no fit state to continue as an mp. He said he will be seeking professional help for his Mental Health and his personal issues, but in the meantime he will carry on collecting his wages add Sheffield Hallams constituents will be without an mp. Jared omaras offers told us he has five Staff Members at that case work is ongoing. They told us there is no backlog, although the two constituents we spoke to for this film are still waiting for a response. One of them was anne marie, who has multiple debilitating conditions and wanted omaras offers to do more on disabled parking and raising disability issues in the commons. Disabled parking and raising disability issues in the commonslj disability issues in the commons. was brought up by, any labour family, i supported was brought up by, any labour family, isupported labourfor a long time, and i did actually vote for jarryd, long time, and i did actually vote forjarryd, because i thought was the intentional. I have been really let down. He could well be in post, but he is not, he may well be on the bankroll until the end of september, possibly mid october. U nfortu nately september, possibly mid october. Unfortunately there is not much we can do. One of the men attempting to restore faith in politics after the expenses scandal was claire, who omara beaten 2017. He introduced a law allowing constituents to sack theirmp, but law allowing constituents to sack their mp, but their powers were limited. Was nick clegg. Their mp, but their powers were limited. Was nick clegg. We as constituents had nothing we could do. We looked every could recall them at theirzero do. We looked every could recall them at their zero legislation for that. We discussed whether the office of the speaker of the house, and they said there is not much they can do, he is responsible to his party, he doesnt have a party. We have contacted parliamentary standards, they do not deal with individuals. We tried a petition, you cannot make a petition about someone you cannot make a petition about someone losing theirjob. All these things that are supposed to be there to support ours, we basically got told that we need to talk to our mp, but we cant because we dont have one. One local councillor described omara as a paper candidate. He was never expected to win, id long static labour members likejustin are living with the consequences. cannot help but think it is a squatted opportunity. I cant imagine that people are going to be too quick to vote for labour again in this constituency. Who do you blame . I think the labour party should have taken more care about the selection of jared as a candidate. Labour told us they follow the correct procedures in selecting omara, and continue to support him. It is understood the party rejects the idea that background social media checks would have revealed concerns about him. Do you feel like because the truants have any form of recourse . It is fairly touch and go whether he would resign in the ed. He has clung on for two years. It has early been capitulated by the behaviour of his chief of staff. It has only booked. That chief of staff is of course. Booked. That chief of staff is of course. Gareth arnold. Serious questions remain about the offers he is now running, and in whose interests he is working. Earlier this year, omaras well thought of and experience staff left where sack, leaving arnold and his young tea m sack, leaving arnold and his young team running the constituency office, like his boss, arnold says he is still getting paid while he works out his notice period, leaving a list of questions, his constituents and taxpayers will want answering. Thats it for this week. You can always set as your ideas at victoria. We are back on monday morning at ten oclock on bbc two and bbc news channel. Goodbye. It has felt a little more like autumn than august today, with the strong and gusty winds across england and wales. They will be with us england and wales. They will be with us for a few hours. Jails over the hills and around the coasts. Heavy downpours have been rattling through quite quickly in the south, slow moving further north, so we have had reports of surface water flooding, rain continuing for northern ireland, parts of Northern England but also increasingly for scotland. That amount of rainfall, 6080 scotland. That amount of rainfall, 60 80 millimetres, could lead to further flooding as it is continuing through the night, there is a met Office Warning for that thundery rain. The wind at the starting to ease through the night and lighter tomorrow. A greater chance of heavy downpours and thunderstorms across england and wales tomorrow, but this draws the attention to very wet Weather Forecast for parts of scotland, and Northern England. That isa scotland, and Northern England. That is a real cause for concern. As ever, the warning details are on the website. This is bbc news. Im lukwesa burak. The headlines at five. The us financierJeffrey Epstein whose acqauintances included President Trump and Prince Andrew is found dead in his prison cell in new york while awaiting trial on child sex trafficking charges. The Energy Watchdog demands to know why nearly one Million People across england and wales lost power yesterday National Grid says it will learn lessons. What we saw was an exceptionally rare event that we have not seen since 2008, but we will be looking very hard at what happened to make sure we minimise disruption in the future. Wet and windy conditions cause disruption to travellers, with the west coast mainline hit by flooding. Michael gove says therell be a bail out fund for
