BBC reporter in Rakhine: 'A Muslim village was burning'

Summary: About 164,000 Rohingya Muslims have poured into Bangladesh from Myanmar's Rakhine state since violence erupted two weeks ago. They say the military and Rakhine Buddhists are destroying their villages to drive them out after attacks by Rohingya militants on police posts. The government rejects this, saying the militants and Muslim residents are burning their own villages. But the BBC's South East Asia correspondent Jonathan Head says he saw a Muslim village that had just been set on fire, apparently by a group of Rakhine Buddhists. Here he describes what he witnessed:

I am part of a group of journalists invited by the Myanmar government to see the situation on the ground in Maungdaw. The conditions for us joining this trip are that we stay in the group and do not go off independently, and we are taken to places the government chooses for us. Requests to go to other areas of interest, even nearby, were rejected as being unsafe. We were returning from a visit to the town of Al Le Than Kyaw, south of Maungdaw, which is still smoking, suggesting houses have been recently set alight. The police said it was the Muslim inhabitants who burned their own homes, although most fled after militants from the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army attacked the police post in the town on 25 August. While there we saw at least three columns of smoke in the distance to the north, and heard sporadic automatic weapons fire. On our way back we saw a large column of smoke rising from a cluster of trees in the rice fields - usually a sign of a village. We got out and raced across the fields to reach it. We could see the first buildings in the village ablaze, but only just. Houses in these villages burn to ash in 20-30 minutes. It was obvious the fires had just been lit. As we walked in, a group of young, muscular men carrying machetes, swords and sling-shots were walking out. We tried to ask them questions but they refused to be filmed. However, my Myanmar colleagues did speak to them away from the cameras and they said they were Rakhine Buddhists. One of them admitted he had lit the fires, and said he had help from the police. As we walked further in, we saw the Madrasa (Islamic religious school) with its roof only just on fire. Flames licked up the sides of another house opposite; within three minutes it was an inferno. There was was no-one else in the village. These men we saw were the perpetrators. Household goods were strewn across the path; children's toys, women's clothing. We saw one empty jug reeking of petrol and another with a little fuel left in it in the middle of the path. By the time we walked out, all the burned houses were smouldering, blackened ruins.

Stolen Khodorkovsky film in Berlin Festival premiere

Summary: A documentary about jailed Russian oil tycoon, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, has been premiered at the Berlin Film Festival despite twice being stolen in recent weeks. The BBC's Dina Newman attended the event and spoke to the film's director, Cyril Tuschi.

"I was hoping to make a feature film about Khodorkovsky, but reality surpassed my wildest fantasies, so I realised it would have to be a documentary," says the director, visibly relieved that his five-year project has finally made it on to the screen. The tape was stolen twice: first in Bali in Indonesia, where Cyril Tuschi was editing the recordings, and then from his office in Berlin, just days before it was due to be submitted to the festival. Police have no clue as to who could have been behind the burglaries. 'Like a Bond movie' "It's like a wound. I haven't been to my office since. I hope the police are right and it's nothing more than an ordinary burglary." The past five years have turned into an emotional rollercoaster for Tuschi, ever since he started filming in eastern Siberia, without any funding, back in 2005. For three years, he was unable to see the jailed oligarch, had no reply to his letters, and managed to obtain just one photo of him taken by a cellmate on a mobile phone. Very early on, he noticed he was being watched. "We got off a train in Chita in Eastern Siberia, at four o'clock in the morning. The platform was empty except for this guy with the mobile phone, and he says very loudly 'there are three people here'." At the time, he panicked but he soon saw the funny side, deciding it was a regional intelligence official making it clear that he was on his tail. "It was like a James Bond movie - I turned around and saw a car with dimmed lights following us all the way to the house." The climax of the film is an on-camera interview with Mikhail Khodorkovsky, thought to be the only footage of its kind since the businessman's arrest in 2003. After days of turning up at Khodorkovsky's second trial, Tuschi was suddenly allowed to film a 10-minute interview with him in court. "Five armed guards were standing behind me, and one of them was tapping me on the shoulder, as a countdown. I had no cameraman with me so I had to film it myself. I was so excited that I suddenly forgot all my questions. After years of no reply to my letters, I forgot what to ask!" Bullet-proof glass One question he did ask is the central question of the film: why did Khodorkovsky decide to go back to Russia and face trial, when he could have escaped abroad? The jailed tycoon explains that he could not leave his business partner, Platon Lebedev, as a hostage to the authorities. He adds that he believes in the rule of law - and finally smiles, pointing out that everyone makes mistakes. That smile, seen through bullet-proof glass, is possibly the film's strongest image. Clearly most Russians will not see Khodorkovsky as a saint - a man who built up the country's second largest oil company and himself became Russia's richest man. It is hard to imagine how anyone could have gone so far without turning a blind eye to the law. But Tuschi insists his aim is not to judge Khodorkovsky's guilt or innocence but rather to observe the reversal of fortune in his life. The former tycoon's letters from prison do not show any remorse, just deep regret that he abandoned his family, and sadness about the ruthless cuts he had to make to turn his business about ten years ago to ensure its survival. In the course of his life, Khodorkovsky has moved from Communist leader during his youth to enthusiastic capitalist, now becoming a jailed symbol of opposition to Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. "The main lesson of the film is that people can change, no matter how late in life," says Tuschi. "And this for me is a symbol of hope."

Wisbech to March railway 'would make money'

Summary: The re-opening of a railway between Wisbech and March in Cambridgeshire is financially viable, a county council report has found.

It would cost £75m to rebuild a station at Wisbech and reinstate the eight-mile (13km) track to connect trains to the main line at Ely. The council report said the economic benefits for the area could reach £81m. Council leader Martin Curtis said: "The study is a big step forward and what it does show is this is worth doing." Campaigners have said a direct train service to Cambridge would take about 40 minutes - much faster than a car or bus journey. Wisbech station was shut in 1968 when passenger trains to March were stopped.

Wales assumes full control of £1bn of business rates

Summary: The first new tax powers have been transferred to Wales, with the devolution of full control of business rates, worth nearly £1bn a year.

Finance Minister Jane Hutt said it gave ministers "new flexibilities" with an "important economic lever". The small business rate relief scheme will remain similar to England's for at least a year, ministers have said. Control of stamp duty land tax and landfill tax are due to pass to Wales in April 2018. AMs also have the power to call a referendum on devolving some income tax varying powers.

Germany shooting: Horror of Jews targeted in Halle attack

Summary: Above the rain-soaked flowers and little lanterns left by well-wishers, the bullet holes are clearly visible in the small wooden door of the synagogue in Halle. That door was all that stood between an armed extremist and the worshippers inside the building, gathered to pray on the holiest day of the Jewish year.

By Jenny HillBBC News, Halle, Germany Christina Feist was inside as the gunman tried - and failed - to shoot his way into the building. "We were actually just in the middle of Shacharit, which is the morning service, reading Torah, when I heard and saw explosions and two clouds of smoke right outside the window," she said. "For a couple of seconds everyone was silent, and then all of a sudden everything went super-fast. The cantor who was leading prayer immediately understood what was going on. "He said: 'Everyone out of here - go to the next room, go upstairs, be on the floor, go down and go away from the windows.'" The horror and confusion which engulfed Halle on Wednesday has been replaced by bewilderment and painful questions. What many in Halle's Jewish community - and others besides - want to know is why there was no police guard to protect them: a situation Josef Schuster, president of Germany's Central Council of Jews, described as scandalous. Most Jewish institutions in Germany are guarded - at the very least on holy days - but it is emerging that some synagogues in smaller towns do not have that security, with one police union suggesting that it was a question of insufficient resources. As investigations continue, it has also become clear that the perpetrator failed to realise the full extent of his murderous ambitions. When the 27-year-old German was unable to enter the synagogue he turned to other nearby targets, killing a woman in the street and attacking a kebab shop where he killed a man. And his apparent motivation, the right-wing extremism and anti-Semitism he exhibited both before and during the attacks - which he filmed and streamed online - has horrified the country. "Unfortunately we have to face the truth and the truth is, and has been for a while now, that the threat level posed by anti-Semitism, right-wing extremism and right-wing terrorism in Germany is very high," German Interior Minister Horst Seehofer admitted on Thursday. For Igor, who we met as he walked near the synagogue, rain spotting his kippa, that's no surprise. A young man, he told us that he wouldn't usually wear the Jewish skull cap in public but he wanted to show his solidarity today. He said that even before the attacks he was afraid. "Jewish life is sadly nothing normal in Germany," he said. "I know from people who wear the kippa in the street - they get harsh comments or people spit in their direction." As the authorities scramble to react, there is an overwhelming sense of sorrow. This country, so shamed by its past, must - it seems - now tackle a painful present. And tackle it properly, said Christina, who, reflecting on those terrifying hours inside the synagogue, said Germany has a problem with anti-Semitism. "Politicians keep telling us this is terrible. It should never happen again but we've been hearing that for years - decades - and it keeps happening."

Bali seeks closure a decade after deadly bombings

Summary: Ten years ago, two deadly bombs ripped through two nightclubs on the Indonesian island of Bali and killed 202 people - mostly foreigners on holiday. The attacks changed the image of Indonesia as a safe place to visit and dealt a deadly blow to Bali's booming tourist trade.

By Karishma VaswaniBBC News, Jakarta Ni Luh Erniati remembers that day vividly. "No one wanted to tell me what happened to my husband," she said, trying to contain her tears. "He was the bartender at the Sari Club that night. I went down to the site and I was like a crazy person, going from place to place trying to find him." Ni Luh Erniati never found her husband that day. Four months later, officials told her they had identified his remains, along with those of several other victims of the attacks. It has been a decade now, but the Bali widow still could not shake off her anger at those responsible for the blasts. "I can never forgive them," she said. "Even if the terrorists have been executed or given life sentences, I can't forgive them. "Their execution can't bring my husband back. He is still dead. The image I had of my future, the beautiful picture of my life with my husband - I can never get that back." 'Very introspective' She and four other women who lost their husbands in the attacks have set up a garment factory - the Adopta sewing co-operative. Here they make T-shirts and banners with sewing machines donated by foreigners who wanted to help the Balinese get back on their feet. Mark Wilson, a British expat who runs two pubs on the island, also tried to help the community. His pub, the Cat and Fiddle, was the centre of relief operations for worried Britons looking for information about relatives or friends who may have been killed or injured in the blasts. "The Balinese really came together that day and in the months after to help those who had been affected by the blasts," he said in his pub. "They became very introspective, trying to figure out how this could happen on their peaceful island. And the economy here really suffered. "People stopped coming here and all the young men and women who worked in the pubs and bars couldn't send money home to their families in the villages." But Mr Wilson says that Bali has learned a great deal from that tragedy and is now much safer than before. "These sorts of things could happen anywhere in the world now," he said. "And Bali is no different. But what I know is that it is much more prepared and far more aware than before." Terror arrests The Bali attacks thrust Indonesia into the middle of the global war on terror. Over the last decade Indonesian anti-terror forces have worked hard to combat home-grown militant networks, and by and large their efforts have been deemed successful. The shadowy extremist group Jemaah Islamiah has been mostly dismantled, with many of the top leaders either captured or killed. Abu Bakar Bashir, the man thought to be the spiritual leader of the group, is behind bars serving out a prison sentence on terror-related charges. But officials say Indonesia cannot afford to be complacent. Over the last few months there have been a string of terror-related arrests. Indonesia's top anti-terror boss says this shows there are still militants out there. "They are still active, recruiting young militants and active in fund-raising and financing attacks. They are also active in making bombs," said Ansyaad Mbai. 'Closer to home' But over the years, their targets have changed. "If we compare with the past, the targets of the extremists were foreigners, the West," said Mr Mbai. "Today it is closer to home - the Indonesian police and authorities. We are their enemies now." Bali police have this week raised fears that militants are planning another attack to coincide with the 10-year anniversary of the attacks. They say they have received credible information that dignitaries attending the memorial ceremonies are possible targets. But those fears have not dampened spirits on Bali's beaches. At Kuta Beach, just a short hop on a motorbike from the memorial honouring those who died in Bali, the tourists are back - blaring out hip-hop tunes from their boom boxes and covering the beach with their bronzed bodies. Tourist arrivals for Australians - the country worst hit by the blasts - are now at a record high. There are more visitors to this island than before the blasts. Many here hope that 10 years on, Bali can finally close the chapter on its deadly tragedy.

Q&A: Hariri Tribunal

Summary: An international court in the Hague is due to begin the trial of four men accused of murdering the former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri in 2005. The four suspects - all linked to the Shia movement Hezbollah - are on the run and will be tried in their absence by the UN-backed Special Tribunal for Lebanon.

Hariri was killed by a car bomb in Beirut in February 20, causing political upheaval in Lebanon that led to the withdrawal of Syrian troops. Hezbollah has repeatedly denied any involvement in the attack and said the assassination was part of an Israeli and US conspiracy The murder fuelled sectarian tension in Lebanon that has since been worsened by the conflict in Syria. What is the Hariri tribunal? The UN Security Council voted in 2007, at Lebanon's request, to set up the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) to try those behind the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. Hariri and 21 other people died when a massive blast ripped through his motorcade in central Beirut. The tribunal, sitting in The Hague, was formally opened in March 2007. The court consists of 11 judges, seven international and four Lebanese. Half of the tribunal's budget - 59.9 million euros ($82m, £50m) in 2013 - comes from Lebanon's government. What are its major findings? In its early stages, the UN investigation, led by German judge Detlev Mehlis implicated top-level Syrian security officials. Critics said the tribunal was part of US policy aimed at regime change in Syria. However in 2011, the tribunal indicted four suspects connected with the powerful Lebanese Shia political and militant movement Hezbollah. They are Mustafa Amine Badreddine, known as a senior military operative, Salim Jamil Ayyash, Hussein Hassan Oneissi and Assad Hassan Sabra. Under the current prosecutor Norman Farrell, the tribunal indicted a fifth man, Hassan Habib Merhi, in August 2013. His case has yet to be brought into the current trial. Both Hezbollah and Syria - which was forced to pull its troops out of Lebanon and relax its domination of its neighbour in the wake of the killing - have vehemently denied any role in the 2005 assassination. Hezbollah, for its part, has dismissed the tribunal as an "Israeli instrument", and produced what it regards as evidence that Israel was involved in the bombing. Why has the tribunal proved so divisive in Lebanon? From the very start, the tribunal has been a political flashpoint in Lebanon, pitting pro-Western groups linked to then-Prime Minister Saad Hariri, who is Rafik Hariri's son, against Hezbollah and its allies, backed by Syria and Iran. By implicating Hezbollah members in the assassination of Rafik Hariri, the tribunal is basically accusing Lebanon's most powerful Shia group of involvement in the murder of the country's dominant political figure back in 2005. There were widespread fears the trial could open a new chapter of sectarian tensions, such as those seen in 2008, when Hezbollah fighters took over west Beirut and crushed pro-Hariri elements. What has been the political fallout in Lebanon? In January 2011, 11 Hezbollah-affiliated ministers resigned, bringing down the coalition government of Saad Hariri. The group had wanted Mr Hariri to withdraw Lebanon's funding for the tribunal, stop all co-operation, and denounce the court's findings even before they were released. He had refused. On 25 January of that year, the Hezbollah-backed business tycoon, Najib Mikati, was appointed as the prime minister-designate, tilting the balance of power in Lebanon towards Syria and Iran, and away from the Western-allied bloc that had headed governments for nearly six years. Five months later, after much political wrangling, Mr Mikati unveiled a new heavily pro-Syrian administration that critics dubbed a "Hezbollah government". He resigned in April 2013 amid disagreement over planned elections and a new government is yet to be formed. Correspondents say Lebanon remains as dangerously divided now as it was in 2005. Mohamad Chatah, one of Hariri's close associates and a staunch critic of Hezbollah, was killed in a bomb explosion in December 2013 only a few hundred metres from where the former prime minister died. What is the potential fallout in the wider Middle East? Lebanon's largest political factions are generally split into Sunni and Shia camps that are closely allied to opposing Middle East powers. The backers of Lebanon's pro-Western camp, the US and Saudi Arabia, are engaged in a wider contest with the Shia power of Iran and its ally Syria, who support Hezbollah. Iran, Syria and Hezbollah are sworn enemies of Israel. The interplay of these regional dimensions makes political instability in Lebanon, where Israel and Hezbollah fought a devastating war in 2006, potentially dangerous. Political tensions have been exacerbated by the continuing conflict in neighbouring Syria. Many Sunni Muslims in Lebanon sympathise with the Syrian rebels, while the militant Shia movement Hezbollah and its supporters back President Bashar al-Assad. What happens next at the tribunal? A spokesman for the tribunal has said that the start of the trial will be "a historic day for Lebanon and international justice". However, the suspects will not be in court because the Lebanese authorities have failed to arrest them. The men are being tried as individuals, not as members of any organisation, and are unlikely to ever appear in court. The trial is going to be a long-running affair, expected to last months, if not several years, if it gets the funding.

Can we teach robots ethics?

Summary: We are not used to the idea of machines making ethical decisions, but the day when they will routinely do this - by themselves - is fast approaching. So how, asks the BBC's David Edmonds, will we teach them to do the right thing?

The car arrives at your home bang on schedule at 8am to take you to work. You climb into the back seat and remove your electronic reading device from your briefcase to scan the news. There has never been trouble on the journey before: there's usually little congestion. But today something unusual and terrible occurs: two children, wrestling playfully on a grassy bank, roll on to the road in front of you. There's no time to brake. But if the car skidded to the left it would hit an oncoming motorbike. Neither outcome is good, but which is least bad? The year is 2027, and there's something else you should know. The car has no driver. I'm in the passenger seat and Dr Amy Rimmer is sitting behind the steering wheel. Amy pushes a button on a screen, and, without her touching any more controls, the car drives us smoothly down a road, stopping at a traffic light, before signalling, turning a sharp left, navigating a roundabout and pulling gently into a lay-by. The journey's nerve-jangling for about five minutes. After that, it already seems humdrum. Amy, a 29-year-old with a Cambridge University PhD, is the lead engineer on the Jaguar Land Rover autonomous car. She is responsible for what the car sensors see, and how the car then responds. She says that this car, or something similar, will be on our roads in a decade. Many technical issues still need to be overcome. But one obstacle for the driverless car - which may delay its appearance - is not merely mechanical, or electronic, but moral. The dilemma prompted by the children who roll in front of the car is a variation on the famous (or notorious) "trolley problem" in philosophy. A train (or tram, or trolley) is hurtling down a track. It's out of control. The brakes have failed. But disaster lies ahead - five people are tied to the track. If you do nothing, they'll all be killed. But you can flick the points and redirect the train down a side-track - so saving the five. The bad news is that there's one man on that side-track and diverting the train will kill him. What should you do? This question has been put to millions of people around the world. Most believe you should divert the train. But now take another variation of the problem. A runaway train is hurtling towards five people. This time you are standing on a footbridge overlooking the track, next to a man with a very bulky rucksack. The only way to save the five is to push Rucksack Man to his death: the rucksack will block the path of the train. Once again it's a choice between one life and five, but most people believe that Rucksack Man should not be killed. This puzzle has been around for decades, and still divides philosophers. Utilitarians, who believe that we should act so as to maximise happiness, or well-being, think our intuitions are wrong about Rucksack Man. Rucksack Man should be sacrificed: we should save the five lives. Trolley-type dilemmas are wildly unrealistic. Nonetheless, in the future there may be a few occasions when the driverless car does have to make a choice - which way to swerve, who to harm, or who to risk harming? These questions raise many more. What kind of ethics should we programme into the car? How should we value the life of the driver compared to bystanders or passengers in other cars? Would you buy a car that was prepared to sacrifice its driver to spare the lives of pedestrians? If so, you're unusual. Then there's the thorny matter of who's going to make these ethical decisions. Will the government decide how cars make choices? Or the manufacturer? Or will it be you, the consumer? Will you be able to walk into a showroom and select the car's ethics as you would its colour? "I'd like to purchase a Porsche utilitarian 'kill-one-to-save-five' convertible in blue please…" Find out more Ron Arkin became interested in such questions when he attended a conference on robot ethics in 2004. He listened as one delegate was discussing the best bullet to kill people - fat and slow, or small and fast? Arkin felt he had to make a choice "whether or not to step up and take responsibility for the technology that we're creating". Since then, he's devoted his career to working on the ethics of autonomous weapons. There have been calls for a ban on autonomous weapons, but Arkin takes the opposite view: if we can create weapons which make it less likely that civilians will be killed, we must do so. "I don't support war. But if we are foolish enough to continue killing ourselves - over God knows what - I believe the innocent in the battle space need to be better protected," he says. Like driverless cars, autonomous weapons are not science fiction. There are already weapons that operate without being fully controlled by humans. Missiles exist which can change course if they are confronted by an enemy counter-attack, for example. Arkin's approach is sometimes called "top-down". That is, he thinks we can programme robots with something akin to the Geneva Convention war rules - prohibiting, for example, the deliberate killing of civilians. Even this is a horrendously complex challenge: the robot will have to distinguish between the enemy combatant wielding a knife to kill, and the surgeon holding a knife he's using to save the injured. An alternative way to approach these problems involves what is known as "machine learning". Susan Anderson is a philosopher, Michael Anderson a computer scientist. As well as being married, they're professional collaborators. The best way to teach a robot ethics, they believe, is to first programme in certain principles ("avoid suffering", "promote happiness"), and then have the machine learn from particular scenarios how to apply the principles to new situations. Take carebots - robots designed to assist the sick and elderly, by bringing food or a book, or by turning on the lights or the TV. The carebot industry is expected to burgeon in the next decade. Like autonomous weapons and driverless cars, carebots will have choices to make. Suppose a carebot is faced with a patient who refuses to take his or her medication. That might be all right for a few hours, and the patient's autonomy is a value we would want to respect. But there will come a time when help needs to be sought, because the patient's life may be in danger. After processing a series of dilemmas by applying its initial principles, the Andersons believe that the robot would become clearer about how it should act. Humans could even learn from it. "I feel it would make more ethically correct decisions than a typical human," says Susan. Neither Anderson is fazed by the prospect of being cared for by a carebot. "Much rather a robot than the embarrassment of being changed by a human," says Michael. However machine learning throws up problems of its own. One is that the machine may learn the wrong lessons. To give a related example, machines that learn language from mimicking humans have been shown to import various biases. Male and female names have different associations. The machine may come to believe that a John or Fred is more suitable to be a scientist than a Joanna or Fiona. We would need to be alert to these biases, and to try to combat them. A yet more fundamental challenge is that if the machine evolves through a learning process we may be unable to predict how it will behave in the future; we may not even understand how it reaches its decisions. This is an unsettling possibility, especially if robots are making crucial choices about our lives. A partial solution might be to insist that if things do go wrong, we have a way to audit the code - a way of scrutinising what's happened. Since it would be both silly and unsatisfactory to hold the robot responsible for an action (what's the point of punishing a robot?), a further judgement would have to be made about who was morally and legally culpable for a robot's bad actions. One big advantage of robots is that they will behave consistently. They will operate in the same way in similar situations. The autonomous weapon won't make bad choices because it is angry. The autonomous car won't get drunk, or tired, it won't shout at the kids on the back seat. Around the world, more than a million people are killed in car accidents each year - most by human error. Reducing those numbers is a big prize. Quite how much we should value consistency is an interesting issue, though. If robot judges provide consistent sentences for convicted criminals, this seems to be a powerful reason to delegate the sentencing role. But would nothing be lost in removing the human contact between judge and accused? Prof John Tasioulas at King's College London believes there is value in messy human relations. "Do we really want a system of sentencing that mechanically churns out a uniform answer in response to the agonising conflict of values often involved? Something of real significance is lost when we eliminate the personal integrity and responsibility of a human decision-maker," he argues. Amy Rimmer is excited about the prospect of the driverless car. It's not just the lives saved. The car will reduce congestion and emissions and will be "one of the few things you will be able to buy that will give you time". What would it do in our trolley conundrum? Crash into two kids, or veer in front of an oncoming motorbike? Jaguar Land Rover hasn't yet considered such questions but Amy is not convinced that matters: "I don't have to answer that question to pass a driving test, and I'm allowed to drive. So why would we dictate that the car has to have an answer to these unlikely scenarios before we're allow to get the benefits from it?" That's an excellent question. If driverless cars save life overall why not allow them on to the road before we resolve what they should do in very rare circumstances? Ultimately, though, we'd better hope that our machines can be ethically programmed - because, like it or not, in the future more and more decisions that are currently taken by humans will be delegated to robots. There are certainly reasons to worry. We may not fully understand why a robot has made a particular decision. And we need to ensure that the robot does not absorb and compound our prejudices. But there's also a potential upside. The robot may turn out to be better at some ethical decisions than we are. It may even make us better people. Illustrations are From Would You Kill The Fat Man?

Preston New Road fracking site trespassing ban extended

Summary: A ban preventing trespassers from entering land where fracking will take place in Lancashire has been extended by almost two years.

The injunction, which was due to expire in August, relates to land around Cuadrilla's shale gas exploration site at Preston New Road in Little Plumpton. Cuadrilla and 10 farmers successfully applied for the extension at the High Court, sitting in Manchester. Anti-fracking protests have taken place at the site for several months. Cuadrilla chief executive Francis Egan said the firm was "very pleased" with the decision. He described the ban as "an important deterrent to unlawful protest that has significantly disrupted and inconvenienced local commuters and businesses". The extension means the injunction will now expire on 1 June 2020.

Labour conference: What to expect

Summary: The Labour Party is holding what could be one of its liveliest party conferences in years. Taking place in Brighton from Sunday, it's the first one since election defeat and, of course, Jeremy Corbyn's spectacular win in the leadership contest. Here's a guide to the event:

By Kristiina CooperPolitical reporter, BBC News Power to the people? The complaint you often hear about party conferences is that they've become boring and stage-managed - to stifle dissent and allow the party high command to present a polished front to the world. With Jeremy Corbyn in charge though, there are signs that things could be far from bland - with delegates given a real say in policy-making. It seems that there'll also be a change to the staple diet of speeches from Labour's leading lights. Their speeches are going to be cut back this year, to allow ordinary members more time to speak. If you give everyone a say in policy, there will inevitably be arguments. Following requests from several constituency parties there's going to be a big debate on whether to replace Britain's nuclear weapons system, Trident. What's more - in a break with recent practice - Mr Corbyn has suggested that the result of any vote would become party policy. Potential flashpoints It has been Labour policy to support a replacement for Trident. Many Labour MPs want to stick to that position but Mr Corbyn and fellow Labour left MPs have called for Britain not to replace the nuclear weapons system. There have already been differences about welfare reform. Mr Corbyn has come out against a cap on benefits - a limit on the amount a household can claim. But some of Mr Corbyn's colleagues - including the shadow Work and Pensions Secretary Owen Smith - have said the cap should be maintained. (they are united in opposing the cap being lowered) UK involvement in Syria could be another sticking point inside the Labour Party. There may be an emergency motion rejecting UK air strikes without explicit UN authorisation. It's in anticipation of the Prime Minister - when Parliament reconvenes - seeking Commons approval for military action in Syria. Mr Corbyn has a record of voting against military action. Big announcements coming down the line Mr Corbyn is set to announce, at conference, that Labour will commit to renationalising the railways. It shouldn't ruffle too many feathers within Labour - under Ed Miliband official policy was nationalisation-lite (allowing publicly-owned organisations to bid for rail franchises). Some delegates may be galvanised into supporting the move when they discover that the main London to Brighton line is going to be closed on the first day of conference - because of construction work! Any reversal of privatisation will certainly get short shrift from the government, though, who say the move is backward-looking and expensive. New faces Labour says that since Jeremy Corbyn became leader, 50,000 people have joined the party - bringing the total number of members up to 360,000. It will be interesting to see how many of the new members attend conference. Plotting from Blairites? During the leadership election there were many voices of doom - including Tony Blair - warning about the consequences of a Corbyn victory. Since his huge win, the public mutterings of discontent have been muted. Some Labour politicians, past and present, may be genuinely keen to give Mr Corbyn a chance - given the scale of his victory and for the sake of party unity. Others may be biding their time, expecting Mr Corbyn to be the author of his own undoing. And who knows? Maybe some of the less hardcore New Labour-ites are enjoying a secret frisson of delight at the way things have turned out. Either way, the words and actions of the 'moderates' will be interesting. Getting to know Jezza The high-point of the party conference is the leader's speech. Many leaders use it as an opportunity to say something about their character and values. Mr Corbyn is a political veteran, having been an MP for over 30 years. But many members of the public don't know much about him or what he stands for - and as one of his own shadow ministers revealed, some of his own side knew little about him a few weeks back. So, even for an old-timer, the speech is a big opportunity. According to an Ipsos Mori poll Mr Cameron is perceived as a more capable leader than Mr Corbyn - although Corbyn's rating for honesty is higher than the Prime Minister's. Quoting the public Mr Corbyn has already made a point of breaking with tradition at Prime Minister's Questions, asking party members to suggest questions. Will he be crowd-sourcing ideas for his leader's speech too? He may have to be careful - his predecessor's conference speech quoting an array of "normal" people he had met was not exactly a huge success. The media For some sections of the media, the election of Mr Corbyn is a marvellous gift. The conference will be Mr Corbyn's first big test as leader and fair to say, some journalists will be in their element - stalking the fringe meetings looking for hints of splits, internal dissent and 'loony left' ideas. There's one media tradition that Mr Corbyn is going to uphold though - he will be appearing on the BBC's Marr show on Sunday, the first day of conference.

Semaphore and smoke signals - faster than broadband?

Summary: How long should broadband users have to wait for a web page to load? And how long should it take to install a regular software upgrade over your broadband line? How does six minutes to load and complete a BT Speed Test and 4,500 hours to download some Apple software updates sound?

Rory Cellan-JonesTechnology correspondent@BBCRoryCJon Twitter That, according to people in the village of Kettleholm near Lockerbie in Dumfries and Galloway, is a common experience. They contacted me over the weekend to tell me of their concerns about a broadband service which they say is virtually useless, and is making doing business in a rural community very hard indeed. The villagers have resorted to YouTube to highlight the difficulties they face. It was there that I found this video illustrating the length of time it takes to load the BT Speedtest page, and this one of that interminable software update. Best of all, this video shows how they've come up with alternative methods of communicating - from semaphore to smoke signals. There is only one wholesale broadband provider in the area, and that is BT, providing a service down standard copper telephone lines from the exchange. Ruth Ritchie, who made some of those YouTube videos, tells me that what is particularly frustrating is the fact that the service changes by the minute. "You can sit there watching it and at one stage it's a perfect service - then it will drop right in front of your eyes." And indeed her email to me summed up the problem: "At the start of this I said the connection was good, now Safari can't load Google… Have you any idea how hard it is to find anything out without the internet, even how to complain?" Still, Mrs Ritchie and around 150 of her neighbours in this sparsely populated area have got themselves organised and have complained to BT and to local politicians. Since then, engineers have visited several homes without apparently getting to the root of the problem. When I asked BT for a response, the firm sent me this statement: "Kettleholm telephone exchange is a modern digital exchange, System X and offers broadband speeds of up to 8mb/s. We were not initially aware of a problem with broadband in Kettleholm as only a small number of the 120 end users reported problems with their service. The service appears to have gradually degraded over time without triggering any of our alarms. Engineers recently reset equipment in the exchange and tests show that broadband speeds have risen. We will continue to monitor the situation and would like to apologise to everyone for the frustration and inconvenience they have experienced." Broadband campaigners will say there's a simple answer - replace the exchange and its copper cables with the fast fibre service that is now becoming common across Britain. But Kettleholm is in that "final third" of the UK where BT and Virgin Media believe the economics of fibre just don't stack up. There is around £800m from the TV Licence Fee which the government has set aside to fill in the gaps in coverage. Most, if not all of that looks likely to end up with BT, but it's taking time to allocate money out and it is not clear whether it will ever reach places like Kettleholm. Earlier this month we discovered that BT does have some spare cash to spend - £738m to be precise. That is what it has paid to get the rights to Premier League football games over the next three years. Understandably, the company feels it has to invest in that kind of programming to persuade people to sign up to BT Vision and its Infinity fast fibre broadband service - and in turn make the economics of the whole project stack-up. But those who are going to miss out on the superfast revolution may be asking whether fibre, not football, would have been a better destination for BT's cash. Meanwhile Ruth Ritchie finds one thing particularly irritating - the leaflets which come regularly in the post advertising the fabulous BT Infinity 80Mbps service which she has no prospect of receiving.

Immingham gas-fired power station approved by government

Summary: The government has approved construction of a new power station which, alongside a neighbouring facility, would be able to provide 2.5% of the UK's peak electricity demand.

VPI Immingham said the gas-fired plant will create up to 150 construction jobs and 15 new roles. A gas supply pipeline will also be built on the site in North East Lincolnshire. Construction next to the company's Roster Road site will start next year. North Lincolnshire Council leader Rob Waltham said: "This is a major development that will bring scores of new jobs to the region and make a very real contribution to the local economy." The Local Democracy Reporting Service reported that the new facility would back up wind and solar electricity production. The new build will increase VPI Immingham's output to 1,240MW and help the company respond quickly to shortfalls on the grid.

Why women are uber annoyed in Saudi

Summary: When Saudi Arabia made a hefty investment of $3.5bn (£2.43bn) in the Uber taxi company with an eye to facilitate its expansion in the Middle East, one of the things it probably had in mind was a huge domestic market for female customers. After all, Saudi women are banned from driving in the country, and Uber earlier mentioned that 80% of its Saudi Arabian users are women.

By BBC TrendingWhat's popular and why Uber first launched in the Kingdom in 2014, and the introduction of the app, alongside its main local-competitor Careem, seemed to solve the logistical hurdle of how women could mobilise themselves if they couldn't be driven by members of their family or private drivers. The latest investment could only mean more transport available for women and the strengthening of industries other than oil. Win win, right? Wrong. Some Saudi women took to social media to bring up a long-debated subject; the fact that they live in the only country in the world where women are not permitted to drive. But the latest Uber mega-deal opened up old wounds of having to rely on others for transport. Many pointed to fact that as they are not permitted to get behind the wheel themselves, their government and the Silicon Valley transport company were using women as "cash cows, and hence profiting from their lack of rights. After the deal was announced, the hashtag سعوديات_يعلن_مقاطعه_اوبر# ('Saudi women announce Uber boycott') gained popularity in Saudi Arabia, with over 8,500 mentions on Twitter in the last week. Some slammed the move arguing that the Vision 2030 strategy recently outlined by Saudi Deputy Crown Prince and Defence Minister Mohammed bin Salman, which detailed several reforms aimed at diversifying the country's economy and moving it away from its dependence on oil profits, would be at the expense of women. Quite literally. Follow BBC Trending on Facebook Join the conversation on this and other stories here. Others argued that being alone in the car with (presumably) male drivers did not go well with the Islamic traditions. At the end of the day, the conversation boiled back down to Saudi women's desire to be allowed to drive themselves. There is no word as yet from the Saudi government but Uber's spokeswoman told The New York Times, "Of course, we think women should be allowed to drive...in the absence of that, we have been able to provide extraordinary mobility that didn't exist before - and we're incredibly proud of that."

Peat protection plan for Cairngorm funicular repairs

Summary: Peat will have to be temporarily removed and streams may be diverted to protect the environment during repairs to the Cairngorm funicular railway, a report says.

The UK's highest railway has been closed since September 2018 due to structural problems. A planning application for repairs includes proposed measures to reduce environmental harm. It says the mountainside will need to be monitored for a decade. The railway connects a base station with a restaurant and a ski area 1,097m (3,599ft) up Cairn Gorm mountain near Aviemore. Its construction required the use of helicopters in an effort to limit damage to the mountain environment. Highlands and Islands Enterprise, which owns the 19-year-old funicular, has submitted a planning application for repairs including a consultant's report on environmental impact. It says soil would have to be carefully stripped away and then put back in place during the repair work. Streams may also need to be diverted to prevent them from being polluted.

Guilt: Will Gompertz reviews BBC Scotland's crime drama ★★★★★

Summary: There have been some really nasty mouths on TV and cinema screens over the years. Hannibal Lecter's springs to mind. Although, to be fair, the gimp mask didn't do him any favours. Batman's bete noire Bane (as played by Tom Hardy) suffered from the same indignity, poor chap. He probably had a lovely smile behind all that leather and metal. That's what his mother said, at least.

Will GompertzArts editor@WillGompertzBBCon Twitter Albert Steptoe (remember him?) had a malevolent gurn so loaded it actually made you feel dirty. Not quite as filthy and rotten as Hessian Horseman's ghastly black gnashers in Sleepy Hollow, which made you retch (headlessness improved him no end). For a more life-like mean mouth, pinched and bloodless and filled with nothing but venom, I always thought you need look no further than Begbie's cruel kisser in Danny Boyle's Trainspotting. That was before watching Guilt on BBC Two, an Edinburgh-based four-part drama starring Mark Bonnar as Max McCall, a solicitor perpetually on the verge of losing it. Big time. Maybe the perma-snarl is a Scottish actor speciality, like Irn Bru is in the fizzy drink market. They're both livid, anyway. With good reason in Max's case. There he was, coming back from a jolly wedding having had a bottle of champagne or two, when his younger brother and designated driver goes and runs over an old man causing Max's top lip to take on the properties of a very thin and angry elastic band. Jake (Jamie Sives) is all over the place; he's all panicky and muddled, which is hardly surprising given he is sky-high on weed. Jake wants to do the right thing, Max wants to drive on: these two would disagree about the colour of The Beatles' Yellow Submarine. "You've got no soul," says Jake. "You've got too much," Max snaps back. They duly enter into a spiral of poor decision-making which serves them very badly indeed but works a treat for the plot. OK, it's not the most original set-up of all time: an odd couple crime caper in which the increasingly desperate attempts by the two anti-heroes to cover up their guilt leads them deeper into the mire. It is often funny, not so much in a Laurel and Hardy "another fine mess" way, more like Noel and Liam Gallagher and their constant sniping and carping. Max and Jake loathe each other. They have a long-standing beef, which middle-age has done nothing to quell. In fact, their mutual disregard is just about the only thing they have in common. Max is the bossy older sibling with all the trappings of success: the flash car, the big house, the expensive clothes, and a wife (Sian Brooke) he considers a trophy but who self-identifies as a sentient human being. Jake is the "kid" brother who never grew up. While Max was doing the hard, corporate yards climbing the legal profession's ladder, his younger brother was dreaming of being a pop star. When he woke up a decade later to discover he wasn't duetting with Mick Jagger on a charity single but was actually stony broke with no prospects, he was only too happy to accept Max's offer of setting him up with a specialist record store. Max is hard, Jake is soft. Max plays with the big boys, Jake plays records. Max has a lot to lose, Jake couldn't give a damn. Until, that is, he meets the American niece (Ruth Bradley) of the man he ran down. I will say no more. Other than, Guilt is very good. There's a lot of telly about at the moment, but this is a notch or two above most. Neil Forsyth's scripts are precise and darkly witty, his characters believable and entertaining. Robert McKillop's directing is crisp and evocative. The cast brings this tale of the Edinburgh underworld vividly to life, playing up to its more surreal elements like Twin Peaks veterans. There's a welcome appearance from an in-form Bill Paterson (Fleabag), while a steely-eyed Ellie Haddington takes on the role of a curtain-twitching, nosy neighbour with whom you would not leave your kids. Guilt is the polar opposite to the trendy slow-burn box set. It starts with a bang and builds from there, with a plot that twists and turns like the snakes in Medusa's hair. My only whinge is four eps aren't enough for a proper binge, bring on season two. Recent reviews by Will Gompertz

Is this picture disgusting or beautiful?

Summary: This photograph of a father holding his son in the shower has been shared tens of thousands of times on Facebook in the last fortnight. But over the same period it's also also been taken down by the social media platform more than once before ultimately being reinstated each time. Why?

By BBC TrendingWhat's popular and why In some ways the picture appears to show a fairly everyday scene. A dad cradling his severely sick child in his arms. Except in this instance, they are in the shower and both naked. The picture was posted on social media by the photographer Heather Whitten who lives in Arizona in the US. It shows her son Fox and her husband, the boy's father Thomas Whitten. For many viewers the image is a touching portrait of parental care and affection. The reason that father and son were naked was because Fox had Salmonella poisoning for which he would soon after be hospitalised. "Thomas had spent hours in the shower with him, trying to keep his fever down and letting the vomit and diarrhea rinse off of them both as it came," Whitten wrote in her post accompanying the photo. "He was so patient and so loving and so strong with our tiny son in his lap... I stepped out and grabbed my camera and came back to snap a few images of it and, of course shared them." But for some people the image is inappropriate at best and at worst has undertones of paedophilia. Whitten has been surprised by this reaction and was shocked when people posted negative comments about what was for her a beautiful moment. "There is nothing sexual or exploitative about this image," she wrote in the initial post. "I was taken aback by how many people missed the story or didn't even look past the nudity to find the story." Controversy about what images of naked children are acceptable is not new. In 1995, before the use of digital cameras was widespread, newsreader Julia Somerville and her husband were questioned by police after they took family photographs of her seven-year-old daughter to be developed at a chemists. Ms Somerville protested that the images were "innocent family photos" and no charges were brought. In 2001, artist Tierney Gearon's exhibition featuring photos of her naked children at the Saatchi Gallery sparked a row. She later admitted being "completely taken aback" by the reaction to the photos which she described as "kids in masks doing a silly pose". In photos where a child appears naked with an adult there are additional complications and there may be evidence of something of a double standard. A nude man may appear more sinister to some than a woman without clothes. Last month, an Australian woman Kelli Bannister posted a photograph - in a similar pose to Whitten's photo - cradling her daughter Summer. It was taken by her five-year-old son on a mobile phone. The reaction to that image was overwhelmingly positive. Whitten told BBC Trending she has been "blown away" by the response to her image, which was actually taken in November 2014. "I wasn't prepared at all," she says. "I was very intimidated by it." "A disgusting lack of boundaries," posted one person who was less keen on the content. Whitten told Trending that she respects people's rights to disagree and she has never deleted a negative comment posted under the photo. "But people shouldn't be able to dictate what is right or wrong for other people," she added. Whitten says some people also contacted her saying it triggered memories of past abuse, something she had not even considered when posting the picture. But the majority of the comments have been positive. "All I see is a loving caring dad comforting his sick child," reads one. "This is a beautiful image," says another. And in an online poll run by the Telegraph newspaper 94% of the more than 7,000 people who responded indicated they didn't think the photo was inappropriate. Despite this, Whitten says the picture has been removed a number of times since being posted on Facebook at the start of May. A spokeswoman for Facebook confirmed that the picture had been taken down in error but has been reinstated. Whitten used the hashtag #standupstripdown which empowers photographers to take a stand against social network sites banning photos and the damage that can be done by that, especially for professionals. Whitten is adamant that the image captures something honest and human. "For me it's just such a positive image and my hope is that it's a normalising image, normalising family nudity," she says.

Election 2019: Job hunt for MPs who lost their seats

Summary: There is often an assumption that former MPs are set for life after losing their seat, with many walking into consultancy jobs or similarly well-paid roles. While public sympathy may be low for those who fail to get re-elected, the reality of instant political redundancy rarely involves strolling into a high-flying position - it means a trip to the job centre.

Laura Smith, Crewe and Nantwich MP 2017 - 2019 Former teacher Laura Smith lost the Crewe and Nantwich seat in the December election after two years in the role. When she was photographed job-hunting, she posted it on social media, tweeting with the shrugging emoji: "What do people expect me to do?" The ex-Labour politician told BBC 5 live: "I am not ashamed to be going to the job centre, it is about dealing with this misconception... that people who are members of parliament - even local councillors - are kind of sitting on a bank of reserves or will automatically have connections who will come and want to hire you. "I am somebody from a working class background, I am like millions of other people looking for work and I haven't really got the luxury to sit around for too long thinking about it, I need to get on with it. "I don't want anybody to feel sorry for me - you know the risks about being voted out. I'd be lying if I said it hadn't [been tough], I absolutely loved my job. I was never expecting to be elected in 2017 to represent my home, so I was gutted [to lose in 2019]. "We were obviously in it to win the seat and I feel desperately sorry, really, that I wasn't able to persuade enough people to vote for me. That is the nature of politics. "You get a period of time to wind up your constituency office, which is by the end of February, and then it is basically statutory redundancy. "I would like to stay in politics in some form or another, but again, you have to look at your options. I need to keep a roof over my family's head and we will see what happens." Karen Lee, Lincoln MP 2017-2019 Ex-Labour politician Karen Lee replied to Ms Smith's tweet, saying she too was at the job centre looking for work "like you and millions of others". The former nurse was ousted at the general election from the Lincoln seat and has applied for six positions since then. "The reality for MPs is absolutely different to the perception. I have seen people online saying we get a massive payout - I get a bit of redundancy pay but it is not massive and I haven't got a job so I am living on it. "It is not like I am taking a holiday to the Bahamas, it will pay the mortgage and gas bill. It should last until I get another job. I was in the job centre on Wednesday and the staff there were very kind, supportive and helpful. "Going [there] shouldn't be something that we dismiss. I think it is a positive that MPs reflect the people they did represent or still represent. Defeated MPs set to share £2m payout What happens when you lose your job as an MP? Defeated MPs' staff on the 'grief' of losing a job "It was really disappointing and sad to lose my seat. But on the night I thought to myself a huge number people had come out during the campaign and helped me and gave it their all. "Since the election I have been helping my team wind the Lincoln office down. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to go to Westminster and represent the city I am from. "I lost my daughter Lynsey to breast cancer in 2011 when she was 35, and when you have had something like that, it puts these things into context. I still have my nursing registration and have put myself down for shifts at my local hospital but ultimately I would like to do something more strategic. "I feel optimistic, looking for another job is quite exciting." Jo Platt, Leigh MP 2017- 2019 Jo Platt had worked in marketing then later became a local councillor. She was elected to represent Leigh for Labour in 2017 and was the first woman to do so, before losing to James Grundy in December. "Historically we know MPs were very privileged people and came from privileged backgrounds... the actual number of working class MPs has risen quite sharply on both sides of the house. "That demographic has changed within Westminster [but] I am not sure if perceptions match that. There's this [idea] we all live in the castle, not in the constituency somewhere, and it is wrong. "People come from ordinary backgrounds and when they stop being MP they go back to being or doing what they were before, or basically look for something else. "I was a single parent when I entered Parliament. I was a councillor before I was an MP so since 2012 I've been serving politically in [some] way. To come out of that and think 'what's next?' is a daunting prospect. "All the work I have been doing locally, the groups I am involved with, that connection and that push doesn't stop. "For me that is what I am concentrating on and obviously, the issue of getting a job - yes it is there but there are still bits of work that I was doing while I was an MP and will carry on doing now. "It is a transition."

Canada has quietly granted asylum to LGBT Chechens

Summary: Thirty-one gay and bisexual Chechen men and women have been granted asylum in Canada following a violent crackdown on LGBT people in the Russian republic. They are being brought to Canada as part of an under-the-radar collaboration between human rights groups and the federal government.

By Jessica MurphyBBC News, Toronto In April, reports of abductions, detentions, disappearances, torture and deaths targeting gay and bisexual men in Chechnya began making international headlines. The Chechen government denied that security officials had launched an anti-gay purge, saying that gay men "simply don't exist in the republic". It was a claim repeated in July by authoritarian Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, who denied in an interview there were gay men in Chechnya. He then told HBO reporter David Scott : "If there are any, take them to Canada". Rainbow Road executive director Kimahli Powell says "I had to chuckle when I heard that". By that time Rainbow Road, a non-governmental organisation (NGO) that helps LGBT people escape persecution and violence around the world, was well into a clandestine effort to spirit gay and lesbian Chechens to Canada. The programme was kept secret until last week in order to assure the security of those they were assisting. Its full details remain vague and the Canadian government has only confirmed its role through unnamed sources. Powell confirmed that 31 people have been granted asylum in Canada since June and that 22 are now in the country. They are all young, between 20 and 25 years old. Most were brought to Canada as government-assisted refugees. Rainbow Railroad, based in Toronto, has also helped move another four to other countries. All told, about 70 gay and bisexual men and women have escaped Chechnya, though a number still remain in Russia. In May, the Russian LGBT Network said it was working with five countries in Europe and elsewhere to offer asylum to dozens of gay men. But the organisation only named one country - Lithuania - as a confirmed destination. Powell says when the scope of the persecution in Chechnya became clear, it made sense to approach the federal government for help. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau publicly supports LGBT rights and regularly attends pride parades across the country. He named Liberal MP Randy Boissonnault as special adviser on LGBT issues. Trudeau and Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland had both publicly condemned the anti-gay purge and called the persecution "reprehensible". Rainbow Railroad was also concerned that Europe, with its Chechen diaspora, might not be the safest place for the refugees. Powell says "this was a time to see whether the government was really going to do something". Rainbow Railroad worked closely with the Russian LGBT network - the key organisation in the region - to help get the men and women out of Chechnya. "In February, they're young individuals who had never left home, closeted, and all of a sudden captured, rounded up, beaten, abused, outed and then forced to migrate, within a few months," Powell says. "Even in Canada they don't believe they're safe." Human Rights Watch was also instrumental in the effort. Egale, a Canadian LGBT human rights organisation, is working with 16 of the Chechens who have safely settled in Toronto. The individuals will get counselling and settlement services. Executive director Helen Kennedy says they face the usual challenges common to refugees - integrating into a new country and culture with different customs and language - as well as the trauma related to their experience. She says the LGBT groups supporting the newcomers will need resources to help them adapt. Gay men and lesbians who have faced persecution in other countries often distrust groups that provide services that aren't focused on the LGBT community. "They should not feel abandoned once they get here," she says. It's possible Canada's involvement will increase tensions between Canada and Russia. The Globe and Mail newspaper reported that Freeland played a key role in the operation. Freeland is also one of 13 Canadian officials sanctioned by Moscow in 2014 in retaliation for sanctions imposed over Russia's annexation of Crimea. Russian officials told the Globe that there would be consequences if Canada violated Russian law by bringing in the Chechen refugees. It's not the first time Canada has helped persecuted gay men and lesbians. The previous Conservative government helped LGBT people fleeing persecution from Iran, though the number being granted asylum in Canada dropped as Liberal government shifted its priorities to bringing in Syrian refugees in 2015.

Can lessons be learned from Pret baguette allergy death?

Summary: The inquest into the death of a girl who suffered a fatal reaction to sesame in a Pret a Manger baguette has shone a light on food allergen labelling. As the hearing concludes, experts say lessons need to be learned from the teenager's death.

For people with food allergies, eating out can be a distressing experience. There is the fear factor of leaving the allergen-free comfort zone of a person's own kitchen, and often a feeling of embarrassment; of not wanting to ask too many questions of waiting staff, or to call attention to one's dietary needs. To combat those concerns, a new law aimed at making things easier for people with allergies to eat out safely was introduced in 2014. But experts say it doesn't go far enough. Under current guidelines, takeaways and restaurants are only required to let customers know if any of the 14 most dangerous allergens - including peanuts, eggs and milk - are ingredients in their food. However, freshly handmade, non pre-packaged food does not have to be individually labelled, according to the UK's Food Regulations 2014. The Pret baguette Natasha Ednan-Laperouse bought falls into this grey area. The 15-year-old, from Fulham, reacted to sesame in the sandwich she bought at Heathrow Airport in July 2016. Coroner Dr Sean Cummings recorded a narrative conclusion at West London Coroner's Court - finding that the teenager was "reassured" by the lack of specific allergen information on the packaging. He said the labelling was "inadequate" and he would be writing to the government about reduced food labelling on products made in shops. Law student Amelia Zekavica, 20, who said she had suffered an allergic reaction to sesame in a Pret sandwich in the past, said businesses should do more. She said: "The food industry needs to list all of the ingredients on the packaging. I think everything should be included. "It's very serious. You shouldn't have to check and ask for an ingredients book or list, it should be labelled. "The industry should understand that there are people out there who have allergies. People can die." What are the laws on allergens in food products? Allergy blogger Nathalie Newman, who runs the Intolerant Gourmand site, backed Ms Zekavica's call. "Labelling food is absolutely crucial, as in the severest form of allergies it can be the difference between life and death. "Lessons have to be learned from this; we have the top 14 allergies for a reason and businesses should take responsibility for labelling." David Pickering, of the Chartered Trading Standards Institute, said the law was designed to "reduce burdens on smaller businesses" but suggested it may need to change. "Big chains probably have a formulaic approach to making sandwiches, which is totally different to a local shop where they can make it up as they go along and it's potentially not as controlled," he said. "[Businesses] can simply comply with the legislation - as Pret said they had in this case - but should also look to go further, to find better ways to communicate with people who have allergies. "If businesses are complying and these situations still occur, then maybe the law needs to be looked at again." Providing a safe eating experience for allergy sufferers should be paramount, according to Holly Shaw from Allergy UK. She said: "Cases [like Natasha's] show that at the very severe end of the scale, lives can be lost if people come across something they're allergic to." Data highlighted by the FSA, Allergy UK and the Anaphylaxis Campaign suggests children and young adults are "disproportionately more prone to die from an allergic reaction than adults". The FSA has launched a new campaign - easy to ASK - to encourage young people to ask food businesses about allergens when eating out. Its chairman Heather Hancock said: "Living with a food allergy or intolerance is not easy and can have fatal consequences. "It's crucial that [young people] feel confident to speak up and ask for allergen information, and that the people around them make that easier." Ultimately, there is an onus on both businesses and customers with allergies to take responsibility, according to Ms Shaw. She said: "We're at a place now where there's still work to be done, but allergy awareness is far more increased. "Effective communication is really important for food business operators, who also need to make sure the [allergen] information they provide is accurate. "It is important that allergen labelling is consistent. "But people [with allergies] also have a responsibility to ask questions as well to make sure they are aware."

Sectarian power grab tears Yemen apart

Summary: The Romans had a name for Yemen.

By Frank GardnerBBC security correspondent, Saudi Arabia They called it Arabia Felix - Happy Arabia - because of its lush, rain-fed mountain scenery. Today that epithet sounds tragically inappropriate. Already the poorest country in the Middle East, wracked by soaring unemployment, dwindling oil and water reserves and home to the most dangerous branch of al-Qaeda, now Yemen is being torn apart by war of many sides. The Saudi-led air strikes began last month, raining down precision-guided missiles on a rebel group called the Houthis who swept down from their mountain stronghold in the far north six months ago, taking town after town, and pushing out the UN-recognised President Hadi. That alarmed the Saudis and the other Gulf Arab states, especially as they suspect the hand of Iran as being behind the Houthis' spectacular blitzkrieg. How else, Saudis keep saying to me, could an impoverished group of tribesmen get the training, the weapons and the money to take over half the country? There's a sectarian angle here too. The Houthi rebels are Zaidi Shias, representing about a third of the population. The Saudi rulers are suspicious of Shias, many of whom look to Iran for spiritual leadership. Saudi Arabia is a predominately Sunni Muslim country and the Saudis are starting to think they're getting encircled by proxies of Iran wherever they look: in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and now Yemen. Enough, they said, drawing a line in the sand. At a secret summit in a Saudi palace last month they threw together a 10-nation coalition in a belated and possibly doomed Gulf Arab attempt to turn back the Houthi takeover of Yemen and restore their ally to power. Change of presidents But in fact the Houthis largely owe their military success to someone much closer to home. They've formed an alliance of convenience, a sort of pact with the devil, with the very man who tried to bomb them out of existence five years ago. Ali Abdullah Saleh ruled first North Yemen, then a unified Yemen, for 35 years, until he was forced out of power by the Arab Spring protests. He refused to believe that Yemen was better off without him. So he set about wrecking the peaceful political transition of power that Yemen's friends had worked so hard to engineer. Whole units of the Republican Guard remained loyal to him, bombs went off and towns were fought over. President Hadi who replaced him, an elderly, genial southerner, has been no match for Saleh's machinations. He must be rueing the day he agreed to let his predecessor stay on in Yemen. I interviewed Saleh once, in his fortified palace in the capital, Sanaa. It did not go well. Speaking in Arabic without a translator, I asked him what he wanted his legacy to be. The unification of North and South Yemen, of course, he replied, this was his crowning achievement. I thought I would soften him up by asking what benefits this had brought, but the way I said it in Arabic came out as 'well what was the point of that?' What? he barked, glaring at me furiously, summoning his official translator, and looking pointedly at his watch. Effective fighters As president, Saleh fought six short wars against the Houthis until it ended in an uneasy truce. Now he's cynically using them to destroy those who he sees as usurping his power. The Houthis are fierce, effective fighters, used to living on little in the black, volcanic mountains that straddle the Saudi-Yemeni border. When I visited them in their stronghold city of Saada my girlfriend and I were woken on our first morning by a burst of heavy machinegun fire from a pickup truck outside in the street. "It is celebration," said the man on reception, unfazed. Later we met a pair of brothers who took us out to the mountains to show off their skills with a Kalashnikov. Chewing the narcotic qat leaf and racing across the desert in a beaten-up old car, they thought it was the biggest joke to swap places behind the wheel while driving at 60 miles an hour. Their shooting was every bit as wild as their driving and before long a farmer emerged, shouting and cursing. "What the hell are you doing?" he said. "Bullets are coming down all around my sheep!" Sunni fanatics I have no idea what dizzy heights those two rose to after that in Yemen's tribal hierarchy, but the Houthis and their allies are now in control of most of the important parts of Yemen, despite more than a week of airstrikes. If those fail to dislodge them then the Saudis have not ruled out a ground invasion, but everyone knows that carries enormous risks of getting bogged down into a vulnerable army of occupation. Instead, the Houthis face a more dangerous foe - the jihadists of al-Qaeda. The jihadists are Sunni fanatics and they hate all Shias, including the Houthis. In Yemen, al-Qaeda seems to be the only force capable of confronting the rebels on the ground. On Thursday, their ranks were swollen by a jailbreak of dozens of convicted al-Qaeda fighters. Soon they will be rallying the Sunni tribes to join forces and fight the Houthis from the North. And all the while, the Americans look on from afar, in despair. Until just a few weeks ago they thought they had a reliable partner in President Hadi. President Obama even held up Yemen as a shining example of a counter-terrorism partnership. Now that partnership has crumbled to dust, and so too have Yemen's immediate hopes of emerging from this intractable nightmare.

Abbey Clancy wins Strictly Come Dancing 2013

Summary: Model Abbey Clancy has won Strictly Come Dancing 2013.

The 27-year-old lifted the BBC show's glitterball trophy after a final against actress Natalie Gumede, newsreader Susanna Reid and singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor. BBC Breakfast presenter Reid was favourite with bookmakers to win the show's 11th series. Clancy, partnered by professional dancer Aljaz Skorjanec, said: "I can't believe this; it's just mad." She called Strictly "the most perfect experience I've had". Winning dance After the cameras stopped rolling, she ran and jumped into the arms of her husband, footballer Peter Crouch, who had arrived in the studio between the first and second broadcast after scoring a goal for Stoke City earlier in the day. Clancy's winning dance was a quickstep to Katrina and the Waves' Walking On Sunshine, scoring 38 points. Judge Bruno Tonioli called it "absolutely dazzling in its brilliance", while Len Goodman called her "a spectacular dancer" with "wonderful posture". Six million votes The model and presenter was a complete amateur going into the contest, but was the first contestant to score a perfect 40, for a salsa performed during the 10th week of the show's run. It was the first time in the programme's 11-year history that there had been an all-female final, and many of the previous winners - including Mark Ramprakash, Louis Smith and Natasha Kaplinksy - were in the Saturday night audience to watch the showdown. All four couples performed two dances in the first half of the finale, comprising of the judges' favourite performance from across the series and a showdance. Reid kicked off with a cheery newsreader's-sofa-based quickstep and later performed a daring 14-revolution spin clinging to the neck of her dance partner Kevin Clifton. But her scores were consistently lower than those of the other contestants. Coronation Street star Gumede was the most technically-impressive dancer, with head judge Len Goodman at one point essentially demanding she be put through to the final three. "Excellence is never a fluke," he said after her cha-cha to Boney M's Rasputin. "Excellence comes from hard work and dedication and sweating. And I can tell you, that was excellent." Ellis-Bextor performed an elegant, stylish Viennese Waltz but her cha-cha showdance contained some inelegant lifts, and she was eliminated as the second show commenced. Outstanding beauty Clancy began her career on another reality show - Britain's Next Top Model - where she was the runner-up in 2006. Although she did not win, her runway career took off, and she has appeared on TV shows such as Hell's Kitchen and This Morning, where she is a fashion expert. Her last night on Strictly began with a waltz to Des'ree's song Kissing You. The routine, which had been chosen by the judges, originally scored 32 in week one - but improved to a perfect 40 in the final. "That dance should be declared an area of outstanding beauty," said Goodman. She then performed a flame-fuelled showdance to Guns N' Roses' Sweet Child O' Mine, scoring 39 and prompting Bruno Tonioli to declare: "You rocked my world and you rocked the nation". Darcey Bussell favoured her final dance, a "seamless quickstep", and noted her improvement over the course of the series. "I feel so lucky," Liverpudlian Clancy told the BBC after the show. "The fact everyone's voted for us to win... it's just surreal." Her partner, Slovenian dancer Skorjanec, was also competing in Strictly for the first time. Six million votes The final was determined entirely by public votes and the judges' scores did not count towards the final outcome. More than six million votes were cast in the final. However, the BBC said it would not disclose the breakdown of the votes, meaning the second and third-placed contestants will not be revealed. Reid would have been the third BBC Breakfast presenter to win Strictly, following Natasha Kaplinsky in the first series and sports host Chris Hollins, who won in 2009.
