Every Police Officer in Northern Ireland is under threat from dissident republican terrorists. The last attack was a few months ago when a senior detective was shot and injured. After that the Terror Threat was raised to severe that is the highest in the uk. Today we did also hearfrom sinn fein Policing Board Member gerry kelly, who said abstracts of that information were posted out side a party office and he said he believed this was done by dissident republicans to show they had the information.

News today of big changes that are likely to be announced for targets on nhs cancer Waiting Times in england. There were nine targets, all of which have been routinely missed in recent years. Now therell be just three, including the maximum four week wait, for a cancer diagnosis. That hasnt been achieved for a while, and treatment within a month of cancer being found, with that aim not met, since 2020. Here are the six goals that will be dropped, meaning patients with a diagnosis could have to wait longer than two weeks before seeing a specialist, a target last met over three years ago. And Breast Cancer patients may also have to wait longer for a first consultant appointment. That target was last met over five years ago. The nhs says streamlining and simplifying the process around Cancer Treatment will be better for patients, but some doctors say more needs to be done to improve ouitcomes.

The labour leader keir starmer said the government was moving the goalposts with changes to targets. Ministers said the plan had been put forward by medical leaders and wasnt imposed by the government. That is the thing, hugh, critics may say dumping tar gets youre missing is convenient and then argue perhaps politics is involved . Yes. Convenient and then argue perhaps politics is involved .

Yes, it might| look suspicious that a Government Thatis look suspicious that a government that is being judged on nhs performance in england maybe involved in downgrading Cancer Care Tar gets. But it is being emphasised it came from nhs england, who put it out for consultation a year ago and discussed it with experts and charities and now it wants to push on with it. Ministers were told will only get involved in final approval. That is a certain logic to this, that with these nine existing targets, not all being met, all a bit confusing, not many people know what they mean, to just have one focussing on diagnosis and whether you have cancer in 28 days and other on treatment times, really is the best way to go. The proof of whether this is going to work is whether the targets can be met over the next year or so, targets can be met over the next year orso, orwhether targets can be met over the next year or so, or whether confidence will be diminished further amongst patients at a time when the system is really struggling on dealing with the cancer workload. Of course, whether treatment will be improved. And many have said to us today what really counts is treatment and more investment in resource in that area. Thank you. Officials in hawaii say theyre expecting a significant rise in the number of dead, following wildfires in which at least 93 people are now known to have died. Search teams are checking through the rubble of burnt out buildings and vehicles, with hundreds of people still unaccounted for. Many were forced to run into the sea, to escape the flames. The fires began last tuesday, hitting four major areas on the island of maui, including the Historic Town of lahaina, much of which has been destroyed. In whats been an unusually dry season, the flames were fanned by winds from Hurricane Dora travelling across the pacific.

Used properly, Level Crossings across our rail system are safe, but there are some willing to take big risks at the junctions. Network rail the company which manages the majority of the rail system has released cctv footage, highlighting the dangers. Navtej johal has that story, from worcestershire. Theres a train coming children playing, one armed press ups, and selfies with dogs. Just some of the incidents seen on Level Crossings around worcestershire so far this year. These shocking videos were captured on covert cameras by network rail. Train horn blares theyve released them as a Safety Warning to the public. You wouldnt go out into the middle of a road when cars are coming and start doing press ups or taking a selfie with your dogs and whatnot, so i dont understand why youd do it on a railway, when trains are much heavier, theyre faster, and they cant stop or swerve out of the way. Well, this is a location where network rail has seen some of these incidents occur, and it says one of the reasons behind it may be peoples desire for interesting videos and photos to post on social media, but it says that this sort of behaviour comes with huge risks. Gasping meanwhile, People Living nearby are horrified by the incidents caught on camera. Itsjust atrocious. I dont know, its shocking, really. Thats the word is, l like, very shocking. Oh, thats stupid, isnt it . Honestly, people today what is the matter with people today . Nearly 50 cases of misuse have been reported by train drivers, or caught on cameras, in the county and the West Midlands so far in 2023.

Around 2a million chickens a quarter of the uks Poultry Production are raised in the Catchment Area of the river wye. But concern over pollution and high phosphate levels in the water has led to the Welsh Government putting a hold on all new chicken farms on that side of the border. Heres hywel griffith. Meandering majestically for 155 miles, the wye is one of britains longest and best loved rivers, but its health is ailing. Angela is known as the wild woman of the wye. Shes been swimming in it for four decades, and campaigning for its future since she first noticed a change, six years ago. I spend a lot of time below the surface. I monitor the aquatic life. I started to taste it, i started to feel the difference, smell it. The stones on the riverbed started to go brown and slurry, and it really did start to get foul. This river is on ecological collapse. Concern about the health of this river bridges both sides of the border. Natural england recently downgraded its status from Unfavourable And Recovering to unfavourable and declining, while the authorities in wales say theyre worried about several places in the catchment because of pollution from agriculture. And its Poultry Farms or the waste that comes from them which some believe is to blame, adding phosphates to the water. A quarter of the uks chickens are raised around the river wye. Rob keeps 97,000 of them. There would be no dirty water going from here. He says spreading their muck on his farm helps feed the soil and is actually environmentally friendly. Im saving on bag fertiliser, which has not been dug out of the ground, has it . No lorries coming up the road here. I think this is the way forward. Its huge advantages of chicken muck on this farm. It allows me to grow my crops more cheaply. And used properly, its not a hazard to the river wye. Farming leaders say theyve been unfairly blamed for what is a legacy problem, and the decision for now to put a hold on all new chicken farms is stifling the rural economy. The reaction that the Welsh Government have made is a kneejerk reaction, which is to stop everything. But really, the Welsh Government. Should be coming back to the science again and understanding that to drive the improvements i in the wye, for example, i needs a long term project and actually Stopping Production is not the methods of addressing these issues. The Welsh Government says its concerned about all sources of pollution on the health of our rivers. What direction it takes on the wye will Impact Communities throughout the country.

The ecuadorian midfielder Moises Caicedo has become the most expensive signing in british football history. Hes moving from brighton to chelsea for a cool £115 million. It follows a long line of transfer records. In 1979, Trevor Francis became the first ever Million Pound footballer. Alan shearer cost £15 million in 1996. And the £100 million barrier was broken in 2021, Whenjack Grealish moved from aston villa to man city. Caicedo becomes the new record holder, atjust 21 years of age. Matt graveling takes a look at the new superstar. Just 21, but already one of the premier leagues most sought after signings. Two years ago, Moises Caicedo flew from ecuador to england, in a deal worth just £4 million. His new side, Brighton Well aware of the star hed become later priced the midfielder at £100 million and, with that, launched a bidding war. With both liverpool and chelsea desperate for the player, brighton agreed a sale with the reds for £111 million. But caicedo wanted to be a blue, and the london side committed 115 million to get the deal done. Hes an unbelievable footballer, an incredible footballer, but hes an even better person. And the way hes handled himself over the last few weeks and months has been unbelievable. The youngest of ten siblings, caicedo was just 13 years old when hejoined independiente del valle. At 18, he was given his First International start, and later scored for ecuador at last years world cup. Chelsea have now broken the british transfer record twice in a year. Mauricio pochettinos side no strangers to spending cash, but will Capturing Caicedo now see an improvement in performance . If youre paying 115 million for a player, you think theyre going to come out and do the business, dont you . I i dont think hes definitely going. To be good, he has some potential. So a new signing for a new season, and if it leads to new silverware, £115 million may still be seen as money well spent. Matt graveling, bbc news.
