Welcome to bbc news. North korea has stepped up its hostile language towards the United States, warning there will be all out war if the us uses Military Force against it. North korean officials said it would be willing to use a pre Emptive Nuclear strike. The comments to the bbc by The North Korean vice Foreign Minister came as the us Vice President mike pence, whos visiting south korea, warned the north not to test President Trumps resolve. John sudworth reports now from The North Korean capital pyongyang, where his activities are being monitored and tightly controlled. North korea is all about shows of strength. The first today came in this tae kwon do demonstration. The next, in kim il sung square, close to the centre of power, by way of a rare interview. Translation if the us is reckless enough to use military means, it would mean, from that very day, an all out war. Our Nuclear Weapons protect us from that threat. We will be conducting more Missile Threats on a weekly, monthly and yearly basis. Today, the us Vice President , mike pence, was in south korea, visiting the Demilitarised Zone that separates the two halves of this divided peninsula. He, too, was talking tough. It was a period of strategic patience but the era of strategic patience is over. President trump has made it clear that the patience of the United States and our allies in this region has run out. But, despite the posturing on both sides, the risks are limited. For the us and its allies, war would be far too costly. And north koreas threats, although deeply alarming, are always conditional. If you could send one message to donald trump today, what would it be . Translation i would tell him that if the us encroaches on our sovereignty, then it will provoke an immediate counter reaction. If the us is planning a Military Attack against us, we will react with a nuclear pre emptive strike by our own style and methods. Tonight, although all options apparently remain on the table, the us appears to be signalling that diplomacy and toughened sanctions are now the most likely way forward. Its yet unclear how, having failed before, they will persuade this most totalitarian of states to disarm. There is strong evidence that beyond the gloom of this city lie vast political prisons, gulags in which all dissent, however mild, is crushed. Although, in his interview, the Vice Minister called that accusation a lie. Militarised, isolated and repressive, north korea has the right to follow its own path and, he insisted, no one will be able to stop it. John sudworth, bbc news, pyongyang. We can speak now to drjim marsh, a Senior Research associate at mits Security Studies programme. He joins me on webcam from boston. How much do you think has changed in terms of the relationship and the attitudes between the us and north korea since President Trump took office . I would say its about the same, but developments over the weekend mean we might be at an inflection point, where things could go in inflection point, where things could goina inflection point, where things could go in a different direction. It depends on whether all of the parties take advantage of that. There was no nuclear test and the Vice Minister was talking about doing Nuclear Tests weekly, but didnt talk about Nuclear Tests. Missile tests weekly. So there is an opportunity to move in a different direction. But if we get back into the same old reaction it will be more of the same, more serious. The same old reaction it will be more of the same, more seriousm is the is fair to say that for yea rs is the is fair to say that for years the international community, whatever that means, has been trying to find ways of bringing north korea in from the cold. Do you think in a sense because Donald Trumps approach is so different in so many ways, it perhaps has the opportunity to strike out in frustration . ways, it perhaps has the opportunity to strike out in frustration . I do think so. In some ways even more so than his election contest, secretary clinton, who was committed to the traditional policy. Mr obama had a policy that emphasised sanctions in supporting south korea but didnt really spend time on engagement. His focus was on engaging iran, not north korea, so we have done diplomacy in about eight years. Without diplomacy we need some lines of communication because the danger is not that one side will deliberately start a war, the real danger is that something small escalates because of Miscalculation Oi escalates because of miscalculation or misperception. So at the channel for dialogue will be very important. A little earlier on bbc news we spoke to the uks first ambassador in pyongyang back in 2002 2006, before kim jong un became in pyongyang back in 2002 2006, before kimjong un became leader. He said the thing that struck him most, being based out there, was that north korean officials had no real understanding of how the work in the uk, the us, the European Union countries and there was a big Communication Gap which he found really difficult to bridge. Do you have a sense that any of that has changed in the intervening years . think some folks in north korea do have a sense of americans, but im not sure about kim jong uns inner circle. North korea continues to be the most opaque country world. We know more about it but not as much as any other country. With the chairman having executed and purged people now, it raises and. So many people now, it raises the who is going to have the question, who is going to have the question, who is going to have the courage to stand up and say to the courage to stand up and say to The North Korean leader, bass, it is about idea. Boss. With the local vindication, misunderstanding, lack of getting honest feedback from your staff, that adds up to a dangerous situation and friendly the us is engaging in its own blaster, which may add to that confusion. So again thats how we get more, no one wants it on purpose but if The North Korean think we will attack them and they certainly will have to respond early because they are the weaker party and they have to use what they have or lose it, so we are in a very escalates marine environment. The only way to bring that act is to increase the level of communication. Forgive me. I called Youjim Marshall earlier, thank you very much. A pleasure to speak to you. They give for your time. Thank you. Prince harry has revealed that he has had counselling to help him come to terms with the death of his mother, princess diana. The prince, who was 12 when she died in a car crash, told the Daily Telegraph that hed spent 20 years not thinking about her death, and eventually got help after two years of what he called chaos in his life. Mental Health Charities have welcomed the princes decision to speak so candidly. 0ur Royal Correspondent peter hunt has the story. Prince harry, whos embraced his mothers humanitarian causes like landmines, is behaving in a way that is rare for royals. His most high profile person yet to talk about the mental anguish hes suffered. In 1997, as the world quite literally watched, the child prince walked behind the coffin of diana, princess of wales, who was killed in a car crash in paris. Harry is only now talking publicly about the devastating impact of his mothers death. I can safely say that losing my mum at the age of 12, and therefore shutting down all of my emotions for the last 20 years, has had a quite serious effect on not only my personal life, but also my work as well. My way of dealing with it was refusing to ever think about my mum, because why would that help . Its only going to make you sad, its not going to bring her back. Harrys failure to confront the loss of his fun loving mum has meant he suffered from anxiety and came close to a breakdown. It was his brother, prince william, who encouraged him to see a counsellor. All of a sudden, all of this grief id never processed came to the forefront. I was, like, theres actually a lot of stuff here i need to deal with. It was 20 years of not thinking about it and then two years of total chaos. As im sure you know, some of the easiest people to speak to is a shrink, or whoever. The americans call it a shrink, someone youve never met before. You sit down on the sofa and say, listen, i dont actually need your advice, can you just listen . And you just let it all rip. And youve done that, have you . Ive done that a couple of times. Im not surprised. More than a couple of times. Its great. For somebody in The Public Eye like prince harry, who has such a big reach, to do that and feel comfortable doing that, this is a significant step forward in terms of tackling the stigma around Mental Health. It was something his mother tried when she spoke about self harming and her eating disorder. A generation on, the Stiff Upper Lip is once again being abandoned. Harry is a privileged prince who lives here, at kensington palace. His position didnt protect him from ill health. He now wants to use his status to encourage others suffering in silence to follow his example and seek help. Its a campaign championed by kate, william and harry. Called heads together, its being supported by the london marathon. The racing royals with influence hope itll be a Mental Health marathon. Peter hunt, bbc news, kensington palace. Two men are in a serious but stable condition in hospital this evening and ten others have suffered burns, after a suspected acid attack at a nightclub in east london. Police believe the men, in their 20s, were targeted in the mangle club in hackney. No ones been arrested. Easyjet has apologised to a couple who were ordered off an overbooked flight last week. The pair, who were due to fly from luton to italy, were not offered compensation or told that they were entitled to an alternative flight with another airline. Earlier, joe lynam has been giving me more details. The passengers werent deplaned, in the jargon, violently as it happened with United Airlines. Basically its a bit of embarrassment for easyjet. The two people booked and paid for theirflight, the two people booked and paid for their flight, couldnt check in online for a technical reason, turned up at the desk, were given boarding passes, got to the plane, got on the plane and realised there we re got on the plane and realised there were not enough seats for them, were told to leave. Politely, i am sure politely. Then the human error number to kick in when they were not told that they were entitled to substantial compensation and that they could get a Rival Airline to their final destination, they could get a Rival Airline to theirfinal destination, paid they could get a Rival Airline to their final destination, paid for by easyj et. Their final destination, paid for by easyjet. Thats under eu compensation rules. Two human error is currently the reputational issues. Again that this issue of the monoplane and again theyre not being as it. Last week United Airlines, it was about how they had to get their crews on. Here it is something to do with their system, meaning those seats were reallocated because these people havent booked in online. Airlines oversold their seats. It is a question of how many seats. It is a question of how many seats they oversell. For nearly every flight theres nearly always someone every flight theres nearly always someone who cant make it, turns up late, whatever, so they oversell by two or three seats. This particular incident was human error. They shouldnt have been issued a boarding pass. That was the mistake. Typically, under the current rules, it doesnt matter how cheap your ticket is or how expensive, you still have those same basic rights . You are in the absolutely. Is this an eu regulation . Im writing it down now you are in the care of the airline, that if they havent have overbooked they are responsible for your onward journey. This particular incident happened on monday, the day after the infamous United Airlines flight, and they we re United Airlines flight, and they were told they had to wait for days for the next flight. Thats a mistake. There is no retraining going on and easyjet have to stress that the airline is very apologetic. They are genuinely sorry. They have com pletely they are genuinely sorry. They have completely compensated the two people in question, including the cost of their hotels in italy which they lost. That was how business correspondent. The headlines north korea ramps up the rhetoric, threatening the United States with a pre Emptive Nuclear strike if the us plans Military Action against it. Prince harry opens up about the grief he suffered after the death of his mother, princess diana. The Debate On Constitutional Change is over. Turkeys president erdogan brushes off criticism by International Election monitors of the referendum campaign. This summer, some gcse grades in england are changing, with a g being replaced by grades 9 1, a move thats creating huge uncertainty, according to the teachers union, the nasuwt, who are holding their annual conference in manchester. The government says standards will go up because the content is more rigorous, and that bright pupils will have a better chance to shine. 0ur education editor, bra nwen jeffreys, reports. The new system has more grades and replaces letters with the numbers 9 to i, with 9 being the highest grade. Its all change for gcse maths and english this year. Numbers, not letters, for grades and new, tougher content for the exams. Would that be ok, to do that . So, umi is getting extra help from her tutor, something many families cant afford. Even so, shes anxious about the exams. Its quite daunting, because lots of my teachers dont. Theyve never taught it before, so theyre not used to the new syllabus thats coming in. Her mum, kelly, is trying to get her head round it all. A grade 4 will be the same as a c or above. And a top grade of 9 will be higher than an a. She doesnt mind the exams Content Being made harder. But to bring in a new Grading System and make the whole Exam Structure tougher as well means that theres a lot that people have to deal with in a short space of time. Teachers have been debating the changes today. Their union, nasuwt, says ministers are moving the goalposts. Headteachers move goalposts for yourself individually. But i think the government have just taken them away. And we might actually be playing snooker. Generally, were just very, very confused about what these grades actually mean and, actually, were they even necessary in the first place . In a system where everyone understands, a to g, why did we need to move to 9 to i . Its only england thats making these changes, starting with maths and english this year. Wales and Northern Ireland are sticking with letters. Gcses are an important milestone in students lives. Ministers say thats why high standards matter. They insist the new system will be fair, a grade 4, just as good as a grade c. But all that takes some explaining. Branwen jeffreys, bbc news. Turkeys election has been criticised. There was last minute changes to how voting was calculated. Tonight, the president said his yes side triumphed despite what he called western crusaders. We have this report. Mr erdogan was out in the streets of istanbul this morning, accepting the congratulations of some of his more fervent supporters. He only won yesterdays referendum by a whisker, after staging the most expensive Electoral Campaign in turkish history. In ankara, the capital, leaders of the 0sce, the International Monitoring team who had observed the election, gave theirsumming up. It was unquestionably damning about the way the no campaign had been treated. The Campaign Rhetoric was tarnished by some senior officials equating no supporters with terrorist sympathisers. In numerous cases, no sympathisers faced Police Intervention and violent scuffles at their events. What effect is the referendum result going to have on turkey . We went to the Magnificent Grand Bazaar in istanbul, dating back to the 15th century. Let me sell you something that you dont need. But, jokes aside, there is one important thing missing here western tourists. Wandering round, i couldnt spot a single one. The reason there are no western tourists, says this businessman from the bazaar, is the terrorist attacks during the last one and a half years, and after that the crisis between turkey and europe over the referendum campaign. And given that tourism makes up i2 of turkeys economy, thats serious. But these worries the future. For now, huge crowds greeted mr erdogan as he headed back to his capital, ankara. Then, at the president ial palace, with his wife beside him, he didnt trouble to be diplomatic when he spoke to the crowd about the 0sces criticisms of the referendum. We wont accept their report, he says, we wont hear it, you cant convince us. And he goes on, the eu are threatening us with a freeze on negotiations. Its not important to us, let them do it. The crowd adored his defiance. But defiance alone doesnt make for a strong economy. John simpson, bbc news, istanbul. Brighton and hove albion fans are celebrating tonight after making it into the Premier League next season. Their victory over wigan athletic, and results elsewhere, mean they will return to the top flight of english football for the First Time Since 1983. Well, the celebrations continue for Brighton And Hove Albion fans tonight. Lets speak to mark raven, who was at todays game. He joins us from brighton. I bet you would not have missed it for the world. Today has been absolutely fantastic. I never dreamt we would be in the premiership. How long have you been in the club . My first game was in 197a. The old first game was in 197a. The old First Edition in 1979. I dont remember. What is the challenge now . People are already comparing it to the great euphoria of Leicester City just over a year ago. It proved hard to sustain. What will be club do after the celebrations and after the hangover next season . Well, i think we have the bones of a premiership squad. We will have to spend money to compete next year. I hope we dont spend too much money. Because, you know, i dont like Spending Millions and millions of pounds. I just want to be competitive next year. How important is the team to the town, city, should i say, forgive me. The Football Club is a massive part of the community. We had the disaster and they helped bring the city together. It was critical. They got out in the community. They are central to the whole city. Quite right. The club title reflects the fans. You have these two big communities. There has a lwa ys these two big communities. There has always been a big rivalry. Is football one place where brighton and hove settle their differences . The motto of the club is together. That is what we are doing us. You said you dont want to spend too much money and Nowjohn Terry has become available. Do you want to bring him down . We need players with experience. It will be a mixture of Young Players coming through. They are premiership polity and can terrorise premiership teams. Quality. I would terrorise premiership teams. Quality. Iwould not terrorise premiership teams. Quality. I would not say no tojohn terry. It was a pleasure to talk to you. Thank you for giving us some of the great atmosphere over there tonight. It has been an absolutely brilliant night. We have loved it. It is nice to get some good news, isnt it . The chelsea captain, john terry, has not been offered a new contract and is set to leave the club at the end of the season. Terry joined the club as a 14 year old and has played 713 games for the blues. In that time, he won four Premier League titles, five fa cups, and the champions league. Earlier, i spokes with the former chelsea winger and commentator, pat nevin, and he described the departure of terry from the club as the end of an era. Petr cech has left, didier drogba, frank lampard. And now the final one. The most Incredible Team of chelsea. It was the best period in the chelsea Football Club. He was the chelsea Football Club. He was the embodiment of everything that was good about chelsea is a winning force. He is very keen to stress that he wants to carry on being part of the clubs success for the future that it of the clubs success for the future thatitis of the clubs success for the future that it is not like is walking away and it is all about to fall apart. It is inevitable that he would get to the age where he would have to think seriously about his longer term future. Do you have a sense of where that future may be . It is difficult to tell. He will have many options. We heard butcher speaking in the Sports Bulletin earlier. He talked about obvious places to go. He could enjoy his football for the last few years. That is a big part of it. Being a footballer is a phenomenaljob. If he becomes a manager, which i believe he will do, you have to get every single second out of a football career. Because nothing even comes close to it, even management. He wants to enjoy it. Having said that, there will be teams in the Premier League in england who would be very, very keen to Havejohn Terry On Board to be not just for what he to Havejohn Terry On Board to be notjust for what he brings as a player, but as a leader, and as a personality. I would not be surprised if he ends up in the Premier League as well. It is interesting you talk about that, it is not just interesting you talk about that, it is notjust him as a player, but his qualities as a leader. Let us be honest, he has had ups and downs, both in his playing career, his personal life, controversies he has been involved in. He has a raw talent. There is a good Object Lesson of what you get out of those things and how to get out of those things and how to get out of those things and how to get out of those things and how to concentrate on football and turned from a boy into a man. That is part of it. I played 18 years professionally. You do that as you go through and you grow up and you grow up in The Public Eye. I have to say one thing. It is a truism aboutjohn terry. The demeanour and the attitude and the personality that you see is almost diametrically opposite to the person you meet when you spend time with them. So the effect he has had on Young Players over the years that he has worked with has been absolutely incredible. I spent a long time, 20 yea rs, incredible. I spent a long time, 20 years, playing. Iwatched incredible. I spent a long time, 20 years, playing. I watched it before then. And i have never met anyone, no one before him, more perfectly developed to be a manager. He has the skills in the background. But there is something you cant explain. It is an aura. People around him just want to do things for him. He is a special and unusual individual. He has had trouble. But the way he is perceived is not a Lwa Ys The Way he is perceived is not always seen that way. Talking about john terry. A man who might be about to tell us to get the Central Heating back on. Good evening. If the return to work as a shock to the system, another thing might be the system, another thing might be the temperatures. That might be a shock. It is like we are flipping the backwards.
