And im jane hill at and imjane hill at hull minster, tonight we wait to see which artist has been awarded the most prestigious prize in british contemporary arts, the turner prize. More at half past. We are getting reports of a passenger train in germany colliding with a Freight Train in meerbusch, near duesseldorf. Local police and the Fire Department say at least 50 people have been injured. Details are still coming in. We are going to keep assuming that for you, this is the latest picture we have from the scene, so far the only picture we have. You can see the train appears to have buckled after a collision. It appears to have collided with a Freight Train. Details as soon as we get it, a close up of the commuter train and the damage that appears to have been done. You can see the third window from the left, looks like a doorway partly caved in. We will give you a reminder of where. Looks to me from that mapping that it is a suburb of dusseldorf as much as anything else. Likely to b
And Alistair Hudson, soon to be installed as the new director of the manchester art gallery and the whitworth. Welcome to both of you. A quick thought from each of you on this years short list and what it has that eu . It is a very considered short list, one where all the artists show an element of handicraft and thoughtfulness and humanity. Personally, iwould like to see more politics and a bit more over talking about what is going on in the world, which is there, but could be raised up a bit more. Some people would say that is that quite strongly. Sarah, your thoughts . Again, it is a very considered short list.

The bomber who attacked the Manchester Arena in may this year, killing 22 people, had been a subject of interest to the Security Service and opportunities to stop him were missed. Thats the conclusion of an official review by david anderson, a former independent reviewer of terrorism legislation. He says its conceivable that the attack by salman abedi could have been avoided had the cards fallen differently. After the Manchester Bombing and three terror attacks in london this year, Counter Terror police and mi5 conducted their own reviews, as our security correspondent, gordon corera, reports. Four terror attacks in three months, with some of those responsible known to the authorities, raising questions as to wh
Hello. A brexit deal to get us to the next phase of talks didnt happen yesterday, and today theres been more drama. Theresa may is now trapped between brexiteer mps desire to stop making concessions, the taoiseachs veto over the next round of talks, and the dups hold over her government. Is it like the end of reservoir dogs . Feels like it. But at the heart of it is a trilemma. The uk government is looking for three things from which the eu says we can only have two. Britain wants no land border between Northern Ireland and the republic. It wants no sea border between Northern Ireland and the rest of the uk. But it wants no eu control at home independence from eu rules which implies a border between britain and the eu. The irish say theyll not accept a breach of number one. The dup will not tolerate a breach of number two. So does that mean we have no choice but to breach number three . Well, thats not what Iain Duncan Smith and his fellow brexiteers want.
