Its blamed on rising prices and a shortgage of new homes being built. And breakfast goes back to school. Were beginning a new series looking at the uks maths problem, some of our very best brains will be put through their gcse paces. And matt has the weather. Good morning from Blenheim Palace, where ill be all morning. Gorgeous, stunning surroundings on what will bea stunning surroundings on what will be a nice gorgeous winters day for many. A a frosty start but your full friday and we can forecast in the next 15 minutes. See you then. Good morning. First, our main story. The 19 year old accused of carrying out a School Shooting in florida, which left 17 people dead, has appeared in court charged with premeditated murder. Nikolas cruz went on a killing spree in the town of parkland on wednesday. The fbi is now investigating how it handled a warning that the teenager reportedly posted on youtube claiming he would be a professional school shooter. Vigils were held late into the night in tribute to the victims, as nada tawfiq reports. They came to mourn the lives lost and the lives scarred by this senseless attack. Neighbours, friends and the students of Stoneman Douglas high comforted one another as best they could. Jed was among the students who ran in panic when the first shots were fired. He doesnt know if he can handle returning to the halls where his classmates lives were cut short. I dont know if ill be able to cope with just walking through the bottom floor of the freshman building, knowing that everything has been cleaned up. Like, everything you can almost imagine blood on the walls, bodies on the floor. No one is going to be able to walk through that building. No one. All 17 victims have now been identified. Among them talented students, star athletes and aaron feis, a beloved football coach and security guard. He has been called a hero for shielding children from the gunmans bullets. Nikolas cruz appeared in court briefly on 17 charges of premeditated murder. His lawyer said he was sad and remorseful and described him as a broken human being. The Sheriffs Office said he confessed to opening fire on his former school. He told authorities he bought a drink at subway and stopped at mcdonalds after the rampage. On social media, cruz often posed with guns and on one post he wrote he would be a professional school shooter. Those who knew him were troubled by his behaviour. Hes someone who use racial slurs, who was just awful to other people and im sure he was bullied himself by some but he was the type of person where people were scared to bully him because they knew something could happen. Theyjust didnt think this would happen. These terrifying scenes of students completely helpless and trembling with fear have shaken the nation and they have reignited the debate on gun control. People here are in a state of shock, that someone from their own community could be capable of such killing, and that their city now joins the long list of americas School Shooting tragedies. Nada tawfiq, bbc news, parkland, florida. Anyone whos been abused by oxfam staff has been invited by the International Head of the charity to tell their story and obtainjustice. Winnie byanyima said every complaint would be examined by an independent commission, and wrong doers would be held to account. She said she could not guarantee that there were no sexual predators among 0xfams almost 10,000 paid workers. 0ur diplomatic correspondent, james landale, has been speaking to her. The earthquake that struck in 2010 reduced much of haiti to rubble. But the after shocks are still being felt by 0xfam. In her native ugandan, 0xfams global head said sorry for the Sexual Exploitation carried out by some of her staff in haiti, something she told me she only found out about last week. Im inviting anyone who has been a victim of abuse to come forward, were going to dojustice, we abuse to come forward, were going to do justice, we are torn for the past. Right now thousands and thousands of 0xfa m right now thousands and thousands of 0xfam staff doing the right thing in the most dangerous places in the world. She promised a new independent commission to investigate 0xfams handling of past cases, tougher new checks on staff work references and more cash for safeguarding vulnerable people. Changes that might in the future stop 0xfam employing men like roland van hauwermeiren, its former director in haiti, who has denied paying for sex. Translation some unprofessional journalists are implying that oxfam organises sex orgies using money from donations, which is absolutely untrue. What is true is that oxfam now faces the huge task of trying to rebuild public confidence. Winnie byanyima said more oxfam staff could be sacked if theyre found to have mishandled past cases, but. We have almost 10,000 staff around the world working in more than 90 countries. The majority of those are doing the right thing. You cannot give that guarantee that there are no sexual predators working for your organisation . How would i be able to guarantee that there is no one who is going to offend . What i can guarantee is that we will build a new culture that doesnt tolerate that behaviour. What went on in haiti has cost oxfam donations, public trust and celebrity ambassadors. Miss byanyima said the organisation was demoralising but she insisted it would survive. What doesnt kill it, she said, will make it stronger. James landale, bbc news. The Football Association is to review thousands of files to find out how much was known about the abuse carried out by former youth coach Barry Bennell as part of its internal review. Yesterday he was found guilty of another seven counts of sexually abusing boys, meaning hes now been convicted of a total of 43 offences between 1979 and 1990. Hell be sentenced on monday. We will be speaking to two of Barry Bennells victims on this programme a little later this morning, thats coming up at 6 40am. New figures show a dramatic reduction in the number of young people buying their own homes over the last 20 years. The institute for fiscal studies found that a quarter of those under the age of 3a, earning average incomes, were able to buy, compared to two thirds in 1998. Our finance correspondent Simon Gompertz has more. So ive been living here a couple of yea rs so ive been living here a couple of years now. So ive been living here a couple of years now. 30 years old, keen to buy but shut out of the market. Tom wa nts to buy but shut out of the market. Tom wants to stop paying rent in brighton but house prices are beyond him. Its completely out of reach at the moment, theres not a chance ill be able to get the deposit. Theres such a cost and with utility bills, the cost of trains going to london, with my brent prices its just unachievable and my friends, theyre all around the same age and none of us are on the property ladder yet. Years to give for fiscal studies looked at young people aged 2534 studies looked at young people aged 25 34 on middle incomes at the moment between around 22000 and 30,000 for a house hold after tax. In most cases couples with children. Two decades ago 65 of those on middle incomes earned their own homes, thats dropped to just 27 . Most of the rest forced to rent. Homes, thats dropped to just 27 . Most of the rest forced to rentm will cost you more in the long term if you rent and youre not putting that money towards a mortgage that can eventually be paid off, lets face it. So i think we will see people less disposable income, a smaller savings pot and potentially as well less money to put towards their retirement. High household prices are making young people like tom look further and further afield in the hope of finding something they can afford. Simon gompertz, bbc news, brighton. A bbc investigation has revealed a significant difference between the highest earning male and female consultants working for the nhs in england. Figures show that one in five of the top 100 earners are women, while on average full time men owned 111,000 pounds a year more than their female counterparts when including bonuses and overtime. Our Health Correspondent Dominic Hughes explains. Many different organisations have faced tough questions around the gap in pay between men and women, not least the bbc. Now an examination of the pay of consultants, the most senior clinicians working in the nhs in england, reveals its an issue for the Health Service to two. On average, consultants earn a basic salary of just over on average, consultants earn a basic salary ofjust over £85,000 a year but they can get paid extra, for example in overtime or special awards for clinical excellence. But when that figure for total pay is broken down for men and women, full time female consultants earn £14,000 less on average than their male colleagues. And other top 100 owners, just five are female, even though they make up more than a of the workforce. Certainly within the nhs there should be no disparities in pay because pay structures are national and are clearly publicised. And so other than for issues of, for example people working longer hours, there shouldnt be any reason for discrepancies in paid. The government has already announced an independent review of how the gender pay gap can be eliminated in medicine. It might be that men are more willing to work overtime or more willing to work overtime or more likely to apply for an award, but a study in 2009 revealed a similar picture and female co nsulta nts similar picture and female consultants say its disappointing that these differences still exist. Dominic hughes, bbc news. A department of Health Spokesperson said, we are committed to ensuring hardworking doctors are rewarded fairly and equally for their work regardless of gender and have commissioned an independent report alongside the medical profession to examine how that can be achieved. Britains bus network has shrunk to levels last seen in the late 1980s, thats according to a bbc investigation. Rising car use and cuts to public funding are being blamed for a loss of 134 million miles of coverage over the past decade alone. The campaign for better transport says the scale of the miles lost is a sign that buses are on course to be cut to the same extent railways were in the 1960s. The hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston has announced she is to seperate from her husband Justin Theroux after two years of marriage. The pair, who were married in a secret ceremony in los angeles in 2015, reportedly met on the set of comedy film wanderlust. They gave no reason for the split but said it was a mutual decision which had been lovingly made at the end of last year.

Parsons teammates were the first to congratulate him as well. Elise christie, having suffered her medal agony, was the first to express her delight but could this be a catalyst forgb delight but could this be a catalyst for gb and skeleton .

Good morning. Iam in oxfordshire. A stunning surroundings. The alarm clock can be a little bit tough sometimes, but this makes it worthy. This was built in the early 1700 and has been the back drop for films like spectre and mission impossible. We are looking for signs of spring. It is around the corner and numbers are up at the moment, but we could have those few hints over the next few days. Not so much if you are up in the early hours. Lets have a look at the forecast. Today it is frosty, but a fine day across most parts of the country. We will see some further wintry showers across the north west, especially across parts of western scotland. There is a little bit of patchy mist and fog which will quickly clear. As you can see there are showers towards the north and west, but very little cloud on the map. It will build towards the west later. If you have a closer look at about three oclock you can see most places across england and wales are dry. It could bea england and wales are dry. It could be a bit thicker in the west. Maybe patchy rain towards Northern Ireland and still a few showers in scotland. The odd rumble of thunder as well, but nowhere near as many as yesterday. More of us will see the sunshine through today and the winds will be a bit lighter. Still a breezy northern scotland. It will feel reasonably nice. Across southern areas feel reasonably nice. Across southern areas we feel reasonably nice. Across southern areas we could see temperatures into double figures. Into the night, we will see a band of rain, sleet and snow into western fringes of england and wales into the morning. The south east of that we have a frost into the morning and as the skies clear it is showers later in the north west of scotland. It could be a little bit icy in a couple of. It makes for a cloudy is tight for many. In northern and western parts of england and wales western parts of england and wales we have cloud and outbreaks of rain and maybe a bit of hill snow, which will pull south and east. A few showers in north west scotland through the day. Many will have some sunny spells. Not a bad day. Again, temperatures on the mild side compared to what weve had of late. We continue that while the theme into saturday night and sunday. More cloud developing through saturday night and on sunday that will fit in up night and on sunday that will fit in up in western scotland and Northern Ireland and western fringes of england and wales. Further east, especially towards east anglia and the south east, you may have dry weekend. Still a chance of sunny spells, although there will be a fair bit of cloud. We will have hints of spring, but we may see temperatures quite widely getting into double figures and not far off in scotland and Northern Ireland. Before you get too complacent about thinking spring is with us, there are hints at the moment that things could turn much colder again during next week. I will keep you updated. You can never get too optimistic about the weather when you are around, matt. Definitely not when i am here just a joke the more double figures we see, the more we will feel like we see, the more we will feel like we are stepping into spring. See you later.
