The number of people convicted of rape in england and wales falls to its lowest level since records began. Mps call on Gaming Companies to protect young people from becoming addicted to their products. Another batting collapse for england puts australia on top for the final ashes test at the oval. And at 11 30pm, well be taking an in depth look at the papers with our reviewers, Georgina Wright and john stevens. Stay with us for that. Hello, good evening. The Prime Minister has denied lying to the queen about his reasons for suspending parliament. Boris johnson was speaking after scotlands highest civil court ruled yesterday that the shutdown was unlawful because it was intended to hinder parliamentary debate. Mrjohnson also dismissed concerns about newly released government papers detailing preparations for a no deal brexit scenario that contained warnings of medical shortages, food price rises and major cross channel trade delays. He said the documents were just sensible preparations. 0ur political editor, laura kuenssberg, reports. Almost a year to the day, this document was snapped by a beady eyed photographer in westminster. A hint of the turmoil the government believed might come if we leave without a deal. 12 months later, after leaks and suspicion, at last, ministers have been forced to publish the actual details. Do you understand what were actually doing . I dont. Lets hope they do know what theyre doing, because leaving without arrangements in place could mean shortages of some food, protests, severe disruption at the irish border, and much more. If we have to come out on october the 31st with no deal, we will be ready. And the ports will be ready, and the farming communities will be ready, and all the industries that matter will be ready for a no deal brexit. After clashes in parliament, mps did change the law to make it much harderfor the government to take us out if theres no agreement with brussels by the end of october. But the Prime Minister is adamant hed find a way round that to stick to his deadline. So neither side has any intention at this stage of backing down. If we were to allow the country to leave without a deal on the 315t of october, we would not be serving our constituents well. We would be complicit in doing something that would be very disruptive in the short term, very damaging in long term. Is there any progress, do you want to tell us whats going on . Im very impressed. The only clear way out of the wrangle for the Prime Minister is of course to do a deal with brussels and leave the eu in an orderly fashion. There are whispers of progress in london and brussels. But the eus chief negotiators not so sure. We are still ready to examine objectively any concrete and legally operational proposal from the uk. The law has been changed to make it harder for the Prime Minister to take us out of the eu without a deal. But its not completely off the table. So, while ministers suggest these are just worst Case Scenarios, the anxiety in whitehall and beyond cant disappear. Nor can downing street escape a judges ruling yesterday that the way they suspended parliament was against the law. Number 10 is fighting on many fronts. This is not normal. The Prime Minister having to deny that he lied to the monarch. Did you lie to the queen when you advised her to prorogue, to suspend parliament . Absolutely not. Indeed, as i say, the high court in england plainly agrees with us. But the Supreme Court will have to decide. Therell be that other verdict next week. But the opposition just doesnt buy the governments arguments, or whether theyre ready for no deal. Thats why we are so angry that parliament was prorogued, because i should be in parliament at the moment with the ability to interrogate the Prime Minister and ministers. Mps could be ordered back on the road to westminster by the courts next week. Were in a strange limbo. The only certainty change of some sort is on the way. Laura kuenssberg reporting. So, as weve heard, ministers have finally published details of the worst Case Scenario for the impact of a no deal brexit. The government tried to resist published the operation yellowhammer document, but mps voted to force them to release it. The 6 page paper outlines a series of reasonable worst case assumptions, lets have a look at the key ones. The document warns of some shortages of fresh food and overall there will be less choice in products and increased prices. It notes that vulnerable groups will be hit by this. Significant distruption at dover and other Channel Crossings would persist for at least three months, with some lorries waiting more than two days to cross. The document says that if this is unmitigated, there will be an impact on the supply of medicines. And it warns of an increased risk of public disorder, as protests and counter protests will take place across the uk. Our economics editor, faisal islam, has more on preparations and how local authorities are dealing with these risks. On the banks of the humber, immingham docks, already by tonnage the uks biggest port, and if the governments yellowhammer report is correct, its preparations here that can help at least lessen the impact of no deal on fresh food and medicine supply, and even the risk to Water Supplies arising from the uks reliance on imports from europe of Water Purification chemicals. It is here at the port of immingham that some of the solution to these no deal worries can be found. You can store the crucial chemicals for the water supply here. Also, the government chartered emergency ferries to come in here and those Water Purification chemicals are whats known as category one. The other four . Medicines, medicalsupplies, veterinary medicines, and Nuclear Power plant parts. All those goods are classified as critical and the government is arranging more emergency freight. But the problem really does boil down to what happens further south. Hauliers on the short channel crossing in kent. Can a quarter of a million businesses, filling these lorries, that have never before required paperwork or checks for european trade, get ready on time . Its all new to anybody thats around now, so i think it will be delays, no matter what. In the old days you use to cross borders to different countries, you always had to wait then. The yellowhammer assumptions about these delays have been filtered down to councils. The bbc has obtained the internal planning of many. We have previously revealed Hastings Council discussed how to stop individuals stockpiling, referred to as rationing. Chichester District Council is buying a 2a,000 litre fuel tank and a filling station with taxpayer brexit funds to deal with any disruption. We can also show that on Water Supplies, considered a low to moderate risk generally, dudley council, for example, has a document identifying constraints on supply of Drinking Water due to short shelf life imported chemicals. Social care problems again mentioned in yellowhammer and in council documents, for example, the isle of wight, warning of the extreme impact of the failure of a social care provider. Morning, mr gove. Can we have a quick word . The cabinet minister for no deal said that all this planning shows that the government is getting ready. The yellowhammer documents are a worst Case Scenario. Theyre produced so that government can take plans and take steps in order to mitigate any of those consequences. But a version of the same yellowhammer documents from the same day circulated to the Scottish Government was not headlined as being a worst Case Scenario. In any event, the assessment is from a few weeks ago, not old, as originally claimed by the government, and so far the turbo charging of no deal preparations has not changed its own assessment. Faisal islam, bbc news. Earlier i spoke to Charlie Maclean bristol, founder of Crisis Management firm plan b consultancy, about what he thought the impacts of a no deal brexit would be. I think what well find is that the sort of very obvious things might be planned for. I hope theyre going to be planned for. Like the supermarkets getting food. There is not going to not be food. So i think that planning will help. I think what will end up a little bit like the response. Remember the fukushima tsunami, where it was very su btle fukushima tsunami, where it was very subtle things that were the impacts were. After the earthquake, you. Couldnt have black cars because the pigment was made near fukushima, or, you know, honda couldnt get car parts, or certain car parts, so they had a hard time working. What i suspect will happen, it wont be this sort of armageddon, but what there will be there will be. Youll just there will be there will be. Youlljust suddenly there will be there will be. Youll just suddenly noticed there will be there will be. Youlljust suddenly noticed that certain things are not in the shops, you cant buy them or their in short supply and i think there will be a slightly eclectic mix of things that perhaps people couldnt predict. Youre watching bbc news. The time is 11 11pm. There is more shocking evidence that the Syrian Government is deliberately targeting hospitals and medical facilities in the few remaining rebel held areas of the country, even though its a war crime. More than eight years after the conflict began, hundreds of thousands of people have lost their lives. There are still pockets of fighting but the assad regime, backed by russia, has all but won the brutal civil war. Middle east correspondent Quentin Sommerville and cameraman Darren Conway managed to get into the rebel held area of idlib in the north west of syria, where more than three Million People are trapped, among them opposition fighters and islamist extremists, largely surrounded by government forces. They found underground hospitals where doctors have been forced to take refuge to escape the airstrikes. The sick. The injured. The needy. There is little space left for them in idlib. Dr mohib khaddour treats more than 1,000 patients a day, with just a tiny staff. There is a large number of patients and its just a few doctors. The specialists, we have three orfour, just. The current ceasefire came too late for amal. Her name means hope, something fast diminishing in idlib. She lost her father, her mother and her brother in one year. She just has a sister, also injured in the last attack. Unfortunately, she needs many operations and skin grafts. Its a very sad story, i think. Life is collapsing here. Why is this happening . She whispers. 3. 5 Million People in the province are wondering the same. The world isnt listening. Doctor, do you have any doubt that the regime and russia are targeting specifically hospitals and medical facilities . Never. I am sure that the Russian Air Force and the assad regime attack many times all hospitals and health facilities. Its fact, like the sun and moon. Its fact in syria, and many hospitals are destroyed, and still destroyed till now. Syrias war is reaching new depths in idlib. This was a hospital. Until russia and the regime took it out. One of many we passed that appear to have been specifically targeted. In fields or in hillsides, the onslaught found them. Nearby buildings remained untouched. The United Nations passed on a record of their co ordinates to russia to ensure their protection. Instead, it became a target hit list, as the same places were hit again and again. Russia and the regimes campaign has been horribly effective. Its terrifying. All of these towns and villages that we have gone through have been abandoned because this is a war against what matters to people their homes, their schools and their hospitals. This was a hospital until a few months ago. Its one of a0 that have been attacked since april this year, and its causing people to flee in their tens of thousands. This is the last refuge of those who oppose a government which has brought their country to ruin. How can you still, in these dire straits, pass over co ordinates to russia which are then shared with the regime, which will involve more targeting when this ceasefire ends . So, the co ordinates is a preventative mechanism. Many of the facilities. But it isnt preventing attacks on hospitals. At the same time, i think we are now further strengthening the mechanism. A0 hospitals have been attacked in the last few months. And many more schools have been attacked, and many water points have received direct hits. So the system is broken . So, the system of preventing and protecting the civilians has completely failed. Are humanitarian workers, i dont think we can be blamed for that. As humanitarian workers, we provide life saving assistance, and really, we ask everybody with these co ordinates, to make sure this is respected. If anything, sharing the co ordinates should bring more awareness, more also accountability. That gives little reassurance on the ground. Life here is filled with peril. Going to work is an act of courage. Medical staff say they have a target on their backs. So head nurse Nair Al Aswad takes care when he goes to a hospital in a secret location. His hospital is buried deep out of reach of the bombs. We were told to move fast too. Even under this solid rock, they await the next attack. The un says humanitarian operations are about to reach breaking point. Air strikes arent the only worry. If regime Ground Forces advance a few kilometres, then here will be abandoned too. So people continue to race to the border. We headed south, deep into idlib, escorted by the self styled salvation government. The men who rule here are deemed terrorists by the west, but these camps are full of families and innocents. The assad regime doesnt discriminate. Theres no question that attacking civilians, hospitals and schools is a war crime. Do you think anybody will ever face justice . I dont think. Nobody cares. I hope i can seejustice in syria for everyone who injures syrian people, but i dont think i will see it. Or in my life, at least. Amal and taznin have known only this war. Its far from over, but already the living, the dead, the injured, have been forgotten here. Went on somerville reporting. Quentin. The headlines on bbc news the Prime Minister denies misleading the queen over his reasons for suspending parliament. Borisjohnson also insists government documents warning of long queues, medicine shortages and price rises after a no deal brexit are a worst Case Scenario. The number of people convicted of rape in england and wales falls to its lowest level since records began. The number of people being prosecuted and convicted the number of people being prosecuted and convicted for rape has fallen to its lowest level in england and wales, since records began. The Crown Prosecution Service says cases taken to court are down by more than 30 compared to last year. And the of number of people found guilty has also fallen significantly. Yet allegations of rape being reported to the police are at an all time high. Our Home Affairs Correspondent june kelly has more. Rebecca began a relationship with a man who lied to her that he was a police officer. In fact, he was a convicted criminal with a history of violence against women. She discovered this after he attacked her. He just went into a complete frenzy and thats when he started to physically assault me. He was punching me in the back of the head about four orfive times. He tried to bite my hand, and then the violence just escalated, and that was when it progressed on to raping me. He then held her hostage in her flat. He attacked me again, and this time he had a huge kitchen knife and raped me for a second time. After being raped, rebecca had some seemingly normal whatsapp exchanges with her attacker. She says because she was terrified of him, but she was told that because of this, he would not be prosecuted. How did you feel when you learned that . Somewhere between absolutely broken to absolutely livid as well. It was, hang on a minute. Youve let him out based on a really weak reason. This record low in prosecutions is evidence, say campaigners, that prosecutors are trying to second guess juries by screening out tougher cases. Not so, insists the director of public prosecutions. There has not been a change in approach from prosecutors at the cps. We operate on the basis that juries are objective, impartial and reasonable. That is what a prosecutor bears in mind when making his or her decision. Rebecca was told by a specially trained rape lawyer that her case wasnt going to court, a conversation she can recall in detail. Hes raped somebody, theyve come forward. There is so much evidence there. Youve let a known rapist go, and i said that to her. And she shrugged, and she went, ive heard worse. Rebecca says she was left suicidal by her experience and shes unsure whether she would advise other complainants to come forward. Meanwhile, the Crown Prosecution Service says it will now ask a watchdog to review its work. June kelly, bbc news. Lets take a look at some of todays other news. A man has been charged with the murder of ii month old za kari bennett eko. The child was rescued from the river irwell in bury yesterday afternoon but later died in hospital. 22 year old zak eko has been remanded in custody and will appear before magistrates in manchester in the morning. A teenager, who died after eating a chicken burger at a byron restaurant, hadnt been told it contained buttermilk. An inquest has heard that owen carey, who had a dairy allergy, collapsed while out celebrating his birthday with his family in london. Police have arrested five people in response to proposed plans to illegally fly drones near heathrow airport. Climate activists were planning to disrupt the airport with toy drones tomorrow evening but said said they would fly them before the airport opens, alert the authorities and wait to be peacefully arrested. Mps are calling on Gaming Companies to protect young people from becoming addicted to their products. One big concern are so called loot boxes virtual objects that you can buy during Online Gaming to improve your progress. Gaming Companies Make billions of pounds from them. Now there are calls for them to be regulated and banned from being sold to children. Joe tidy reports from sheffield. Here we go, man its estimated that 37 Million People play Computer Games in the uk, more than half of us, and its growing. But now a Parliamentary Select Committee says its time to pause and make major changes to protect people, particularly from gaming addiction. The proportion of gamers affected by gaming disorder is estimated to be less than i , so a small but significant number. But there is one area of gaming that mps are concerned is causing problems on a mass scale, and that is loot boxes. Loot boxes are randomised in game treasure chests opened with real world money. Mps want them regulated under gambling laws. At a nearby gaming cafe, owner mike welcomes the idea. My opinion is they are gambling. They have the mechanics of gambling, they act the same as gambling does, you dont know what youre going to get, you put your money towards it and i think they have the same dangers as gambling. But it is not a view shared by all. It is your choice as an adult. Ive spent over £100 on it. I think it was worth it in the end, because it wasnt all at once. You want to something and if you dont get it you keep going until you get it. But i think its only a problem if you cant control it, i guess. Mps say children are particularly at risk of spending on loot boxes. They want the government to ban the feature for under 18s. Families find it extremely difficult to deal with gaming disorder in their children and their young sons or daughter, because even before it becomes a proper disorder it has already tainted and disrupted the good family dynamics. Industry bodies say theyre reviewing the recommendations. We care deeply about player experience. We want players to play safely, we want them to play in a balanced way. We provide technical settings, technical measures, we provide education, robust age ratings, and guidance and information sources. Loot boxes have been banned in some countries. Removing them can be a relatively straightforward software update, but with some games making hundreds of millions of pounds from them, it is unlikely to happen overnight. Joe tidy, bbc news. Earlier i spoke to susie breare, whose disabled son spent £3,160 in one of these games that was thought to be educational. My my son is disabled, has severe autism, complex lipsey and cerebral palsy. He relies on his computer and his ipad for his education and entertainment. Complex epilepsy. He is not able to play normal sport like most children so he relies heavily on his ipad. It is a so called educational game he was playing and apparently every time you went to the next level, he had to purchase more coins. It is a Virtual Reality game so as far as he was concerned and with the ability of about an eight year old, he had no idea that what he was buying was real money. And the problem is, in order to play a game that is a so called free game but has an in app purchase, you have to have it attached to your credit card. This was apparently an educational game. He had severe epileptic seizures and ended up having to play something on his ipad for some entertainment and respite and in one morning, he had managed to spend over £3000. And you try to get this money back but you we re try to get this money back but you were not successful . I tried. I have tried through the company in canada which made the game. A Company Called blast works. Their Parent Company is in london. I have had endless phone calls, e mails and i cannot get past the secretary. So he spent £700 in one morning. What changes do you now want to see and are you on the view that this is gambling . There is no doubt in your mind that this is a form of gambling . For me, if it is a free game, it should be a free game. If it hasnt an app purchase attached it hasnt an app purchase if game, it should be a free game. If it hasnt an app purchase if it has an in app purchase, then the game should have an initial Purchase Price and it should be made more difficult to get to the next level. We have a contactless card. We are not allowed to spend more than £30 but how come suddenly on a computer, on an ipad, you can press one button and spend £700 .
