tonight at ten, police in texas admit failures in tackling the teenage gunman who killed 21 people in america s latest mass shooting. unbearable grief for relatives of the victims, after officers waited more than an hour before storming the classroom, where their loved ones died. for the benefit of hindsight, where i m sitting now, of course it was not the right decision. it was the wrong decision, period. there s no excuse for that. america s biggest gun lobby, the national rifle association, is to go ahead with its annual convention this weekend, in texas. also tonight. major failings in maternity services force the regulator to intervene at an nhs trust in nottinghamshire. hundreds trust in nottinghamshire. of thousands displaced a 1 hundreds of thousands displaced and 1 million children face malnutrition after severe drought in somalia. more pressure on the scottish government over ferries, as the head of the network says services are deteriorating. and the slice of merse
