Translation i hope that no one will think of crossing the translation i hope that no one will think of crossing the socalled think of crossing the so called redline regarding russia. He didnt mention Alexei Navalny in his speech whose supporters are right now protesting in moscow against his medical treatment in prison. Hes 22 days into a Hunger Strike and said to be close to death. India ravaged by a Second Wave Of Covid record numbers of daily deaths and infections hospitals are overwhelmed as Oxygen Supplies run out. And well look at why the Breakaway European Super League unravelled so quickly just two clubs out of 12 remain, for now, barcelona and real madrid. Lets start in the us where we have been seeing a day of reaction to the conviction of former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin, who was found guilty of murdering George Floyd Last May by holding his knee on mr floyds neck for more than nine minutes. Weve seen celebration from George Floyds family and civil rights activists while President Joe Biden called it a giant step forward in the march toward justice. And the Department Of Justice is also taking its own step forward with Attorney General Michael Garland announcing a federal investigation into Minneapolis Police practices to look for patterns of unconstitutional or unlawful policing. Here he is making the announcement. I strongly believe good officers who not want to work in systems that allow bad practices. Good officers welcome accountability because accountability is an essential part of Building Trust with the community and Public Safety requires public trust. The challenges that we face are deeply woven into our history. They did not rise today or last year. Building trust between community and Law Enforcement will take time and effort by all of us. But we undertake this task with the termination and urgency knowing that change cannot wait. While issues with police practices, particularly around race, are not confined to minneapolis alone the citys police force has been under particular focus in the past 12 months. On may 26th the day after George Floyds death the Police Released this statement stating that george floyd died after a medical Incident Failing to mention the deadly force used by Derek Chauvin. And then during the trial of Derek Chauvin this man 20 year old father Daunte Wright was killed in a nearby suburb to where the trial was being held. He was shot while in his car by officer kim potter. She said the shooting was an accident because she tried to pull her taser, but instead pulled her hand gun. Shes been charged with manslaughter. Daunte wrights funeral is tomorrow. Larry madowo is in minneapolis at george floyd square. You have been with us throughout this trial in the verdict, larry. Tell us about what is happening there today. Tell us about what is happening there today tell us about what is happening there toda. , ,. , there today. Right now, still people cominu there today. Right now, still people coming back there today. Right now, still people coming back here there today. Right now, still people coming back here to there today. Right now, still people coming back here to pay there today. Right now, still people coming back here to pay their coming back here to pay their respects to honour the memory of george floyd. This is the place where george floyd was murdered. We can now say that because that is what the jury ruled yesterday and found Derek Chauvin guilty of three charges, the first White Policeman ever convicted in the state of minnesota for killing a black man. This place where he was murdered has become with the community because a Peaceful Community for public grief and for protest. There is a collective sigh of relief when it really came down because it was so unexpected. The people who did this work have become so desensitized because they rarely see that sort of accountability, however, also back there this time this is justice served . Because they know there is still a lot of work to do to dismantle systemic racism and create a better and Equitable Pulley System in america for all people of colour. What actions were they like to see taken to address some of those are broader issues that you described . One of them is this, Thejustice Department is doing in the Attorney General of Merrick Garland introducing this investigation into the conduct of the Minneapolis Police department. People told me here that this conviction of Derek Chauvin does not absolve the rest of the police department. When individual i spoke to said the prosecution of court made it clear that this was not a case against the Policing Department but against Derek Chauvin. He said it should be. What they are calling for is a reveal of the use of excessive force, the use of how they target minorities a discriminate against him, it is whether or not there is an excessive attention on the training and the policies and the Supervision Cabal of those are now under review and those are the things people have been asking for. One person told me this used to be treated as a gun range where you tag people and grabbed them away and not the times they are black and brown. Theres a lot more that is needed to overhaul the health system. Treated as a grabbed range. Stay there larry because i just want to look at what happens next for Derek Chauvin here is his mugshot taken just after he was brought to jail following the guilty verdict on all three counts Second Degree murder, third degree murder and manslaughter. Each will carry a different sentence. The most serious is the Second Degree murder conviction it carries a maximum sentence of a0 years injail. The third Degree Murder Conviction carries a maximum penalty of 25 years. While Manslaughter Caries a maximum of ten years. Prosecutors are asking for higher than the minimum sentence, arguing there were aggravating circumstances including the arrest taking place in front of a nine year old child. Heresjohn lesch, a minnesota defence lawyer. When he gets sentenced, they will run concurrent because they are a part of the same act was not very significant, especially the context of a kind ofjustice we have for a police violence. This is very significant. Thisll be the highest charge i wish a Police Officer has ever been convicted in minneapolis so probably should receive the highest sentence. This will be the highest charge a white officer. Derek chauvin wont be sentenced for another two months. We are yet to hear from his defence team, but its likely there could be an appeal. Then in august, the other three former Police Officers involved in the arrest of george floyd will face trial. But for many people in minneapolis and around the us this case was always about much more than what happened to george floyd and the officers involved. Heres our correspondent nick bryant. Guilty cheering. There was joy in the moment ofjustice, echoed around the world. Committing a felony, find the defendant guilty. So now it was Derek Chauvin who was put in cuffs, a one time Police Officer leaving the court a convicted murderer, who has since swapped his suit for prison clothing. It was the verdict the floyd family had yearned for, and their response became an act of remembrance. Im gonna miss him, but now i know hes in history. What a day to be a floyd, man. At the white house, it was kamala harris, americas first black Vice President , who stepped before the microphones. Heres the truth about Racial Injustice. It is notjust a black america problem, or a people of colour problem. It is a problem for every american. It is keeping us from fulfilling the promise of liberty and justice for all. Thenjoe biden said the verdict could be a giant step towards that justice. I cant breathe. I cant breathe. Those were George Floyds last words. We cant let those words die with him. Say his name george floyd protesters immediately flooded the streets, this modern Day Civil Rights Movement continuing its onward march. Guilty but there was a sense of celebration and relief. Relief, relief, absolutely relief. I can exhale now, i can breathe. Overwhelmed, overwhelmed. The site where george floyd was murdered has become a landmark of Racial Injustice and last night it became a focal point for a swirl of emotions. At times, it felt like a street party. At times, it felt like a vigil. But amidst it all, the haunting iconography of george floyd, whose violent death and desperate final words personified americas systemic racism. This is a milestone moment in the ongoing struggle for black equality. But its farfrom being an end point. And while the murder of george floyd has brought about something of a racial reckoning, thats a very different thing from saying its brought about racial reconciliation. There is no point talking of a new dawn in america. The history of hundreds of years will never be eradicated in a single moment. And we can finally say that we sent that killer cop to jail. But maybe there will be a new sense of police accountability, and maybe a new acknowledgement that black lives truly matter. Larry madowo is in minneapolis at george floyd square. Let me ask a question about the sentencing. It will be if few months that. We talk to people there, is it an important moment or whether really the conviction that was their primary concern here . Really the conviction that was their primary concern here . Really the conviction that was their primary concern here . When you talk to the primary concern here . When you talk to the people primary concern here . When you talk to the people there. Primary concern here . When you talk to the people there. The talk to the people there. The conviction was important but the sentencing is going to bejust conviction was important but the sentencing is going to be just as important. We still have two months out. The set of minnesota has sentencing guidelines, so it says that as a first time offender, found guilty of Second Degree murder, third degree murder, he can only go to jailfor i2 and third degree murder, he can only go to jailfori2 and a third degree murder, he can only go to jailfor i2 and a half third degree murder, he can only go to jail for 12 and a half years. However, the prosecution is asking the judge to however, the prosecution is asking thejudge to depart however, the prosecution is asking the judge to depart from that and give a higher sentence because the factors he had to take into account. One, this crime was committed in front of children, one of them Darnella Frazier approximate cousin who was about seven years old at the time witnesses. She said she felt sad and it made her mad. Also george floyd was vulnerable and they should be taken into account when sentencing but the prosecution and defence will be Making Submissions of thejudge that defence will be Making Submissions of the judge that he will make the decision at that time. Without it, he to prison for 75 years but also there are concurrent sentences which reduces it. Larry, thank you very much indeed as always. As well as the investigation into the Minneapolis Police department announced by the Attorney General today democrats are preparing to try and pass legislation its called the George Floyd Justice in policing act. The bill looks to ban chokeholds at the federal level and conditions any Law Enforcement funding for state and local governments on those bodies also banning chokeholds. It will make deadly force a last resort requiring officers to employ de escalation techniques first and it will also require all Police Officers to undergo specific racial and religious training to improve how they deal with all sections of the public. It passed Congress Last year but never reached the senate. Now, with democrats also having control of the senate they are preparing a second effort. Civil rights activists are supporting the bill, but many are saying reforms need to go much further than policing. Heres jasmine rand a Leading Civil Rights attorney on that. What is the future ofjustice and what does that look like . Because justice is not a guilty verdict after a black man a shot in the back. Realjustice, the future of justice in america, needs to look like black men at living inequality in having equal access to health care and education and employment. We cannot have the bar so low for justice in a nation. Tojust stop like men from getting shot in the back. That is not enough. We have to demand true equality in every facet of society. Nicole Gonzalez Van Cleve Associate Professor of sociology at brown university. Thank you very much for your time. I wonder how you assess this moment and its rider significant. Mei] wonder how you assess this moment and its rider significant. And its rider significant. Well of course this and its rider significant. Well of course this verdict and its rider significant. Well of course this verdict wasnt and its rider significant. Well of. Course this verdict wasnt released to so many people who saw this video. I think i got tells us when justice is supposed to look like to certain extent. I think the world of the United States especially breathed a sigh of relief but one verdict is not reformed. So i think one of the concerns that i have is White Americans were out marching alongside black lives matter processes and if you remember, those protests are really what pushed this trial to even happen. The local prosecutor didnt even want to pursue this case. It really did take that mobilisation was not my concern would be that many White Americans think that this verdict is it and that this is an issue that has been resolved. We need the comprehensive reform. In my concern with the legislation is that the proposals for training for instance will funnel more money into policing. When really we need to stop alize from in some ways harassing or pursuing little tiny crimes that dont really improve safety. In some ways they open up most black and brown people to an enormous amount of danger. Traffic stops, vagrancy laws, all of these ways that criminalise just normal social life. That is what is opening up like a brown people to so much danger in the hands of police. I brown people to so much danger in the hands of police. Brown people to so much danger in the hands of police. I know you have studied the the hands of police. I know you have studied the obstacles the hands of police. I know you have studied the obstacles that the hands of police. I know you have studied the obstacles that stand the hands of police. I know you have studied the obstacles that stand in l studied the obstacles that stand in the way of Police Officers being tried and convicted of a number of different crimes, what are those obstacles and what do you think, what legislation would you require to address them . This it what legislation would you require to address them . What legislation would you require to address them . As it stands, and my research to address them . As it stands, and my research in to address them . As it stands, and my research in chicago to address them . As it stands, and my research in chicago which to address them . As it stands, and my research in chicago which is to address them . As it stands, and my research in chicago which is thej my research in chicago which is the largest unified court system in america, ifound that largest unified court system in america, i found that prosecutors often will were protecting and covering up for the Police Officers. So much like the George Floyd Case where they Police Officers all started to swarm around and support Derek Chauvin and this with a medical incident rather than incident of murder, prosecutors when they get these types of suspicious cases, ratherthan they get these types of suspicious cases, rather than question the officers they go along with the police because they need a quick conviction. Without those, they cannot win cases and they can be promoted. We have to disentangle those types of incentives where gated prosecutors are able and willing to Whistle Blower on these types of cases when they dont make sense and when a suspect is dead. Right now for prosecutors that would be absolute career suicide. The other part of this is that cities across the nation continue to pay out settlements when police engage in excessive use of force. For chicago, it is to the tune of 153 million a year. They budget it in advance of these problems happening. They literally have in a line item almost predicting terribly violent misconduct in the cities are willing to pay. Two reforms right there that would stop and push the accountability back on the police to reform. ,. ,. , reform. Interesting. Nicole, thank ou for reform. Interesting.

Protests are taking place across russia in support ofjailed kremlin critic, Alexei Navalny. Hes 22 days into a Hunger Strike and his doctors fear hes close to death. This is moscow right now. Some trees have been closed off. Theyve blocked off streets in the city centre. One Monitoring Group is sayiong that across russia 300 people have been detained. And all of this is coinciding with President Putins annual State Of The Nation Address. We also know that in the 24 hours leading up these rallies police have rounded up navalny supporters in more than 20 cities. Also in st petersburg, navalny� s office was searched. And in moscow two of his aides who were already under house arrest were detained. This is one of them. Transmit i was detained, literally for the thought of going to a rally. For the very thought theyre not letting me out of the minibus now and i think i will be kept until the evening. But you know perfectly well that you have to do. I think there are many people who are not afraid and even being in a minibus near the police station, i want to demand freedom for navalny. Navalny must be alive, healthy and free and it is our duty to fight for it. That was moscow next we move to russias far east. This pro navalny rally took place in the city of vla divostok. Protesters are holding up signs � putin is a thief�. Further east eight people were arrested at another protest in the city of magadan. Then we have this picture from western russia. As you can see another heavy Police Presence. This picture has command the past few minutes. The wife of Alexei Navalny, julia, joining the protest at moscow in support of her husband. Police say 6000 people are attending. This came in. Look at the live pictures from moscow at the moment. In the middle of the evening. Police out in force. There also protesters turning out a number difficult to assess precisely how many people have turned out. Lets get some help on that. Sarah rainsford is in moscow. What more can you tell us about what is happening in the city this evening . Is happening in the city this evenin . �. , evening . Im right in the Centre Of Moscow leading evening . Im right in the Centre Of Moscow leading down evening . Im right in the Centre Of Moscow leading down to evening . Im right in the Centre Of Moscow leading down to the evening . Im right in the centre of i moscow leading down to the kremlin at the end here, the score is where Alexei Navalny� s team have called on people together for this protest. Alexei navalny� s team have called on people togetherfor this protest. At that whole square was blocked off. Barricades of my barriers up from the Early Morning because it is also where President Putin held his State Of The Nation Address today. So the crowds instead have been on the street here, theyve also been disbursed a brown key spots in the Centre Of Moscow but they found it difficult to gather in one place. One thing i would say, you talked about a heavy Police Presence in a lot of arrests, i would say theres a much smaller and much lower key Police Presence today then we saw backin Police Presence today then we saw Back Injanuary Police Presence today then we saw back in january when there Police Presence today then we saw Back Injanuary when there is those protests are our mr navalny when he was arrested. Also far fewer protesters have has to be said. The police are saying 6000 perhaps more than that. Hard to tell because they keep moving around. They have been gathering at a pointjust behind us earlier this evening and shouting and chanting for doctor to be allowed through to Alexei Navalny. Other people chanting for him to be free from some other chanting against Vladimir Putin. The passion here running high but in terms of a mass protest, it is nothing like the first process was Back Injanuary. Stay with us, sarah. Well lets talk about President Putins annual State Of The Nation Address. It lasted 90 minutes and largely focused on russias internal affairs. There was no mention of Alexei Navalny or russias Troop Build Up on the ukraine border. There were though, several messages for the west. Translation ijust have to say, we will have enough patience, responsibility, professionalism, Self Confidence and Self Righteousness and common sense when making any decision. But i hope that no one will think of crossing the so called red line regarding russia. President putin also accused the west of blaming russia for its own problems. At one point he refererred to thejungle book, likening russia to the Tiger Shere Khan being hounded by jackals. And he said this. Translation unfriendly actions against russia do not stop either. In some countries, a nasty custom has been introduced to pick on russia for any reason and most often for no reason at all. Its some kind of sport. We really do not want to burn bridges, but if someone perceives our good intentions as indifference or weakness, and intends to burn or even blow up these bridges, then he should know that russias response will be asymmetrical, quick and tough. So lots of pointed messages. And Alexei Navalny is one of many causes of tension. This has been building since he was poisoned with the nerve agent novichok last august. The russian state is widely suspected of doing this though it denies this. Mr navalny then spent five months recovering in germany and was then arrested when he arrived back in russia injanuary. Then this is in a moscow court in february. He was sent to prison for breaking the term of a parole order connected to a previous conviction. Hed broken the terms of his parole by going to germany after being poisoned. Alexei navaly was then sent here a notorious prison in pok rov. And while there hes been complaining of acute back pain and leg numbness. After alleging he wasnt receiving Adequate Health care he then went on Hunger Strike and is now, we believe, seriously ill. What we are certain off is that on monday, he was moved to a medical facility for prisoners in the town of vladimir 180 kilometres out of moscow. The Authorities Say mr navalny� s condition is satisfactory and that he has given his consent that vitamins be prescribed to him. His doctors and his supporters dont agree with that assessment. Prominent russian democracy campaigner Garry Kasparov also has his suspicions. Iam i am gravely concerned about not just what his health is but his life. And i want to remind President Biden and otherforeign life. And i want to remind President Biden and other foreign leaders life. And i want to remind President Biden and otherforeign leaders it is better to more dissidents than more martyrs or avenge them. The standard in the west cannot save navalny but if can seal his fate by simply ignoring him. Putin possibly threatened to take action against russian interests not found because nobody is attacking russia. Russia is in the crimea and occupying part of eastern ukraine, russia continues a campaign of hacking and interfering with elections and global ascension campaigns poutine i should say. Putin is a dictatorfor life. I wouldnt call him president because he has no legitimacy. It is a dictator who relies on brute First Insight of russia. You can see what is happening today. Hundreds of activists being arrested simply for processing against brutal oppression. In the past few hours un Human Rights Experts have called on russia to medically evacuate mr navalny abroad. Sarah rainsford is in moscow. Can you help me assess the amount of political pressure that is being exerted on Vladimir Putin because of Alexei Navalny and his Hunger Strike was yellow i think it is considerable. We seen a number of World Leaders from the us to europe calling and speaking to not calling on him to make sure that Alexei Navalny doesnt die. On him to make sure that Alexei Navalny doesnt die. There will be serious consequences navalny doesnt die. There will be serious consequences is navalny doesnt die. There will be serious consequences is what navalny doesnt die. There will be serious consequences is what the | serious consequences is what the United States said if mr navalny was allowed to die. He is under a degree of pressure and those calls keep on coming. It is interesting that in the past week or so the kremlin spokesman we speak to our phone calls every day, his tone has been very dismissive. They basically have been saying that we do monitor the health of individual is nothing to do with us at the kremlin and in the last call he said we would not talk about this any more in this convict he says stop and he also said this is not a matterfor he says stop and he also said this is not a matter for International Leaders to be bothering themselves with basically, saying all these calls over Alexei Navalny were unacceptable. It is quite clear in the kremlin doesnt want to give it to the pressure from abroad to treat Alexei Navalny in there differently thanis Alexei Navalny in there differently than is being treated at the moment. Thank you, sarah. Ill see you in a couple of minutes time. Hello. Yesterday Weather Front producing cloud and a Little Rain In Scotland and northern ireland. Today has been dry with plenty of sunshine this afternoon. That Weather Front work southward against english and well sedate was some five though frustratingly if you wanted some rain on the garden theres been barely any rain. Against england and wales. Following on a new area of High Pressure building across the uk and breaking a lot of dry weather for the rest of the week and indeed the upcoming weekend. The Satellite Pictures showing where we have the cloud today and that started to break up this afternoon. We saw the odd shower into southwest england but any of those fading quickly tonight and we are left with a dry, clear night and for the most part winds are light, it is quite breezy to the English Channel into cornwall. But on the clear skies come expecting another widespread frost with perhaps the exception of cornwall, Western French is a wales, the far West Of Scotland and the sun and northern ireland. The colder spots tonight in scotland in northern england, i 5. Look of the area of High Pressure across thursday, you can imagine a lot of dry and subtle weather but may be an early mist and fog patch, they would not last very long. Some areas are cloud drifting through Northern Scotland that may produce isolated showers, the vast majority thursday bringing dry, sunny day and still quite breezy across Southern England into south wales, but the northeasterly when not as pronounced on the north sea coast so you have to struggle around eight or 9 degrees today in temperatures will be higher tomorrow and some socks reaching 17, cardiff and manchester for example. Thursday evening, we keep the sunshine, thursday night doesnt look quite as chilly that we can see A Touch Of Frost as friday begins and friday, we spot the difference, still areas are quite a run in Northern Scotland so dont be surprised if you catch an isolated shower and the onslaught of rain. For most it will be another drive, sunny day and a warmer day as temperatures headed towards 19 celsius and manchester and glasgow for example. Over the Weekend Temperatures will come down a little bit but perhaps we more cloud around him especially across the same price but for most it is going to be dry, with a a lot of sunshine, still some chilly nights around, A Touch Of Frost cannot be completely ruled out.

India continues to be ravaged by a Second Wave Of Covid 19 and bic in record numbers of deaths and infection and many hospitals are close to being overwhelmed. We will look at why the breakaway and European Super League unrivaled so quickly. Two out of the 12 clubs remain. India is being ravaged by a second wave of the covid 19. The virus is accelerating faster there than anywhere else in the world. In the past 2a hours , more than 2000 people have died, and nearly 300,000 new cases have been reported. And the true figure is thought to be much higher. Also many parts of the country are reporting hospitals being overwhelmed. map from delhi, Yogita Limaye reports with cameramen fred scott and Sanjay Ganguly and a warning this report contains distressing scenes from the start. A capital on its knees. At its biggest hospitals, people being pushed to the limits of human endurance. My husband is in a very bad state, let me get through, this woman says. She� s been carrying him around for ten hours. Many of these people won� t survive the night. Sir, for one minute, come and look at my mother, a man pleads. A doctor follows him to the ambulance and prepares to say the words he� s had to say over and over again in the past day alone she� s no more. Herfamily among hundreds in india denied even the chance of saving a loved one. Covid 19 has hit this country with a ferocity not seen before, but not unexpected either. And this is delhi, which has among the best Health Care Facilities in the country. It� s what� s been feared would happen since the pandemic began. But once the first wave subsided, the government almost declared victory over covid 19. The country has been caught unprepared. And now it� s stunned by fear and grief. At this crematorium, new Funeral Platforms have had to be built overnight because of numbers they� ve never had to handle before. In a protective suit, rohit sharma builds a pyre for his mother deepika with crematorium workers. It� s a ritual normally performed together by families. We were not prepared. As a country, we were not prepared. And it� s really sad to see my mother go, because she was just 59. And she recently retired. She wanted to spend some quality time with us, but all i could see was her lying down on the. That� s all i. Holding on to his mother� s bangles, a broken man. So many more will lose as the virus rips through india. Yogita limaye, bbc news, delhi. Let� s speak to professor of epidemiology, Bhramar Mukherjee from the university of michigan. These are difficult times for india. How do we explain the appearance of this second wave . It is hard to watch these huge Germanic Theory in crisis so it declined from september to february february and service that one out of two people were already infected. This gave the country a false sense of complacency and negligence. So when the country opened up there was a tremendous lack of appropriate behaviour in the schools reopened and there were massive rallies for election, large ratings and cricket matches were happening, from gatherings were taking place but from february on red stairway signs of upticks in many different places. There was free complete day to day names and negligence and even my own family was dismissive that magically the virus was gone. But the search we have seen going up by seven times in the last one month. That� s coming up in the last one month. That� s coming up by in the last one month. That� s coming up by maintains. This cannot still be explained by waning immunity or lack of appropriate behaviour and i think emerging variants played a large role in contributing to this huge surge that we have seen with the Positivity Rate of 16 and a Reproduction Number of 1. 6 with many having a Reproduction Number more than 2. 0. Do we know which particular variance may be involved here . They data in terms of Genomic Sequencing have been limited from india. That is impoverished Data Infrastructure of india which is really hurting us. We know that a large fraction of cases where from the uk variant but what is really emerging concern is that double mutants which is responsible and quickly grew from 20 to 60 of the cases. And be fair that these variants are spreading widely across india because their variants do not listen to the state Border Patrols and that� s why we see such a search. You talk about the fact that enough measures were not brought in between the first and second wave but given the first and second wave but given the density of population in some of india� s biggest cities, is it realistic to impose those kinds of restrictions and to expect people to be able to speak to them . I restrictions and to expect people to be able to speak to them . Be able to speak to them . I think intensifying be able to speak to them . I think intensifying the be able to speak to them . I think intensifying the messaging be able to speak to them . I think intensifying the messaging in be able to speak to them . I think i intensifying the messaging in terms of Double Masking and social distancing and avoiding large gatherings and i think i� m hearing to sustain franchise will really prevent this massive log which is crushing economic and social sequences and i think that could be the incentive and then messaging and in the first wave we did see could adherence in which the masks. I think they threw caution to the wind and that� s led to the really catastrophic disaster. And thats led to the really catastrophic disaster. Thank you for oininr us. The hardest hit country in the world is the United States. It� s confirmed more than 31 million cases and 568 thousand deaths. It� s also got one of the most successful vaccination campaigns. President biden has been giving an update on that. As of this past sunday more than 50 of adult americans had at least one vaccine shot. We still have a long way to go. But that is an important marker of progress. When it comes to our target groups that Largest Group c focus on in this past 92 days have been seniors. Americans age 65 and older. They account for 80 of all the covid 19 that. When i took office a person of the people over 65 had received their first shot. I� m pleased to announce that by tomorrow that toto will exceed 80 of people over the age of 65. After existing for a8 hours the European Super League has collapsed. On sunday, 12 of the biggest Football Clubs in europe announced a breakway league. After a heavy backlash, only 2 barcelona and real madrid haven� t pulled out. Maybe they could make A League Of Their Own . Well first of all here� s the chairman ofjuventus, who was one of the main architects of the plan when he was asked whether the super league could continue. The 6 Premier League clubs involved all pulled out within hours of each other on tuesday evening. Here� s the owner of liverpool. I want to apologise to all the fans, supporters of Liverpool Football Club for the disruption i caused in the past a8 hours. It place without seeing what should be said in the project put forward was never going to stand without the support of the fans. But, it didn� t have the support of the fans. Or the players, managers, or even politicians. There was particular anger because the founding members of the super league would be guaranteed a place in it. Here� s the chairman of Premier League club crystal palace, which wasn� t involved. This was a clue to try to steal football and what happened was what was fascinating was the staff said we are going to fight for the right to lose. We don� t want to be in some kind of league where winning Means Nothing without all of that coming. These are the fans who gathered outside chelsea� s stadium on tuesday. They made it clear how unhappy they were with signs saying greed and other things we can� t show you on tv. Within hours of this, chelsea became the first club to signal its intent to pull out. The others soon followed suit. Much to many fans delight including these guys who wrote a song. Singing sandy bay, the beautiful. More accusations of greed. But it� s worth pointing out the situation in european football without the super league. Here� s matthew syed writing in the times saying Uefa And Fifa S Hypocrisy is astonishing . Their greed ruined this game long ago. He points out that the Champions League already gives the most money to top clubs, and that many of them are the projects of billionaire capitalists. And here� s tom mctague from the atlantic pointing out that european football is already dominated by a handful of clubs. Bayern munich has won the German League 9 times in a row the same forjuventus in italy. It� s a similar picture in france, spain and england. There were 6 english clubs 3 in italy, 3 in spain. Here� s the Spanish Football journalist semra hunter. We have not claimed quite feeling the same level of energy or anger as we have seen in england. People have not been taken to the streets, there has not been the core protests outside of browns and stadiums. All of it has been done online via social media and they have been very vocal about their disdain towards this so called super league. Having said that there is a very big difference in their culture between spain and england. Notjust that, in terms of the Football Coach as well. Most of the fans have been really watching from the sidelines, they had been seeing what� s been unfolding in england, he had been praising what� s been happening over there from the fans. Yet, they have not quite done the same. I think there is this idea that the fans in england were getting this taken care of for them. If does clubs were to buckle and to back out. That would be the Domino Effect and it hasn� t started to happen of quest as he had seen him if and spain. Football fans certainly see this as a victory over some of the most powerful people in world football. Laura scott is at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium. The repairjob for the sink she missed six they have been dubbed begins in earnest. There are clear areas of focus with Football Authorities both at home and abroad with fellow premier League Shareholders accusing them of this honesty and arrogance and the group that they are teaching us to engage with our defence. Many of them protested in the last few nights over this concept. Many of them will wonder if the turmoil of the last few days with you to a lasting change. The Culture Secretary said he would not halt his scrutiny of Football Confidence just because this is pretty day is over and he wants to empower fans. On a football level, these clubs have been tempted but they remain powerful and it seems unlikely that a desire for change would have been operated with the super league.

That is one of the biggest problems that| one of the biggest problems that remains is that as you have spoken about all the people of a said about greed and its distrust and betrayal i think a lot of times they feel betrayed by the owners of the clubs they support because what they proposed technically on paper went against everything that the club believes in, competition, they� re playing for the right to get into europe. That was removed. I don� t think this is going to go away. I don� t meanjust because think this is going to go away. I don� t mean just because they have been a good sign that the fans are going to be happy with their rated have been running again. It would not surprise me if you saw more and more protests but you can� t be surprised that giving the mass reaction we saw is only announced on sunday evening the government got involved and that primarily, uefa, fa, even the wealth and many were making comments so ijust think i back to what they can say and you� ve got pundits. It was no surprise. Is this a case of some fans trying to have their cake and eat it . If this a case of some fans trying to have their cake and eat it . Have their cake and eat it . If you think if you have their cake and eat it . If you think if you make have their cake and eat it . If you think if you make manchester have their cake and eat it . If you i think if you make Manchester City, the reason Manchester City is doing so well is because they have a very rich owner. If you allow a rich owner to come in and run your club you have to understand they have the right to control it to some degree. Of right to control it to some degree. Of course. I think what is important if you said, to some degree. They have been allowed to come in and they spent all this money and speaking about Manchester City, they have invested a lot of money in the local area and i think people that live around here are grateful for that but i think it is to some degree the thing that they proposed that on the face of it looks like it was changing the face of european football and that did not testify teams across europe. If you look into the Premier League, that changes how it� s competitive as a lead and as Pep Guardiola said, it is not sport any more. I don� t think it� s a case of not accepting the owners can come in and they are going to make changes and may change their strategy.

If a secure place in europe, where is the competition . Why do you need to win games . They don� t need to buy that.

We look at the hugely Popular Video sharing app tiktok which is being accused of collecting children� s private information illegally and making profits from it. A coroner has urged the uk government to set tougher legally binding Pollution Targets after the death of a nine year old girl. Claire marshall has more. Ella was a healthy child, then suddenly developed severe asthma, this cough an early sign of some of the damage being done to her lungs by toxic fumes close to her home near london� s busy south circular. Last year, in a legal first, a coroner ruled that unlawful levels of Air Pollution helped to kill her. Today, to prevent others dying from toxic exhaust fumes, he recommended the law should be changed, there should be stricter limits, they should be in line, he said, with tougher World Health Organization guidelines. I feel a bit relieved. Ella� s mother, rosamund, has been complaining for this for years. I am really, really happy with it. It� s very clear, it is concise, and it is about saving lives now. A0,000 people die prematurely in the uk due to Air Pollution. And that needs to stop. And this is a start. It is just a start. Even when ella was terribly ill, no one made the connection between her lung condition and pollution, and her mother was not warned. Today, the coroner said that the public should be told much more about the dangers and that medical professionals should make the link clearer to their patients. This report is not legally binding, but the fact that the recommendations are so clear and direct will make it very difficult for the government to ignore. And the World Health Organization believes the danger is global. There is one message which is very powerful. Stop using fossilfuels. We have said that for a long time now. Fossil fuels are literally killing us. The government says it will consider the report and that it� s invested almost £a billion in cleaning up the air. There is now real pressure to do more to prevent others from suffering and dying like ella. Claire marshall, bbc news, lewisham. This is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. Our lead story is . The us Attorney General orders an investigation into the Minneapolis Police department after a jury finds Derek Chauvin guilty of the murder of george floyd. The probe will look at police use of force. Tiktok is being sued for billions of dollars. It� s a Video Sharing app as many of you will know. And it� s being accused of collecting children� s private information illegally and making profits from it an allegation that tiktok denies. It� s worth mentioning that back in 2019, tiktok was given a record 5. 7 million dollarfine for mishandling children� s data. And it� s the the former children� s commissioner for england who� s making this latest claim. The Balance Of Power between the cakes that spend so much of their lives on these sites and the multi Million Pound companies that are running them is completely out of sway. And all of the power that lies with the company. This case in particular with tick tock, it has come about because of the excessive nature of their harvesting of personal and private information from children. Ivana bartoletti is a privacy and Data Protection expert. Concerns raised by the case . Its it� s an interesting one. I think every parent would be looking into what� s going to happen empty space because of the city what� s been happening over the last few months and the last year with the left on having so many children using apps much more than the four and i think a lot of parents will be watching to see what is going to happen. The figures suggest that many under 13 year olds use the platform and what is being brought up during this effect is Data Collection policy were added to the excessive for a Video Sharing app and a lot of children even beyond the age of 13 where using the platform. This is a great concern with a lot of prayer parents around for example how do we know that any applications that children use, they mandate and are able to understand the age of the child when they use a specific tool and also how much did e mail and how much information is collected . This is important because what is going to happen in the uk, for example, is the uk has launched the code of practice to protect children privacy online. This is a really important move in my opinion because the age appropriate design to how it� s defined is a set of standards that all services should meet to protect children� s privacy and if it is important because children are using this to is especially after this year and we really need standards expected for those i designed to develop Online Services and we have really meet standards and we really need standards to be enforced. I� m looking forward to seeing what happens with this investigation. I� m looking forward to the class action because this is really showing how notjust individuals or regulators but it� s really important to see that a lot of people now want to take action around the use of the press that information about harvesting personal data when they have for fear that it may be an to be too much when these practices are not particularly clear. I think this is one to watch for many but in particular for the future of the internet children. Particular for the future of the internet children. ,. , internet children. Thank you.

There is much more Background Information on all of the stories we cover i had bbc news website and i with you tomorrow. Goodbye. Hello. Where yesterday a Weather Front produced cloud and a Little Rain In Scotland and northern ireland, today has been dry with plenty of sunshine this afternoon. That Weather Front works southward across england and wales with some cloud. Though frustratingly if you wanted some rain on the garden, there� s been barely any rain. Following on, a new area of High Pressure building across the uk and bringing a lot of dry weather for the rest of the week and indeed the upcoming weekend. The Satellite Pictures showing where we have the cloud today and even that started to break up this afternoon. We saw the odd shower into southwest england but any of those fading quickly tonight and we are left with a dry, clear night and for the most part winds are light, it is quite breezy through the English Channel into cornwall. But on the clear skies, expecting another widespread frost with perhaps the exception of cornwall, Western Fringes of wales, the far West Of Scotland and the sun in northern ireland. The coldest spots tonight in scotland and northern england, a or 5. Another look at the area of High Pressure across thursday, as you can imagine a lot of dry and settled weather but may be an early mist and fog patch, they will not last very long. Some areas are cloud drifting through Northern Scotland that may produce isolated showers, the vast majority thursday bringing a dry, sunny day and still quite breezy across Southern England into south wales, but the northeasterly wind not as pronounced on the north sea coast so you have to struggle around eight or 9 degrees today and temperatures will be higher tomorrow and some spots reaching 17, cardiff and manchester for example. Thursday evening, we keep the sunshine, thursday night doesn� t look quite as chilly, we can see A Touch Of Frost as friday begins, and friday, we spot the difference, still areas of cloud around in Northern Scotland so don� t be surprised if you catch an isolated shower and the odd spot of rain. For most it will be another dry, sunny day and a warmer day as temperatures headed towards 19 celsius in manchester and glasgow for example. Over the Weekend Temperatures will come down a little bit, perhaps more cloud around. But for most it is going to be dry, with a a lot of sunshine, still some chilly nights around, and A Touch Of Frost cannot be completely ruled out. That is your latest forecast.
