German authorities have just held a Press Conference and we are just scanning through the details of the Press Conference and we will bring you any more new lines from germany when we have them. In the uk, survivors and relatives of those who died as a result of the Grenfell Tower Disaster say they are still waiting for justice after a damning report set out a catalogue of failures. The Public Inquiry Final Report laid the blame on successive governments consistent dishonesty from cladding companies, and indifference of the local council. Annita mcveigh has been covering this for us. Thank you. Welcome back to grenfell tower. After that 1700 Page Report Yesterday people have had more time to diejust the people have had more time to die just the contents of what the inquiry has said in its investigations, examination of the conditions that led to this tragic fire in 2017, with 72 people losing their lives, many interested parties poring over the detail of the report, asking what the consequences of it will be, what it means for safety, for how people live in their homes, for the Way Government acts, operations, so many questions. Let us discuss some of those with deborah coles, director of inquest and joins me now. Thank you for joining us. Just to be clear, what does inquest do . We work with families, what does inquest do . We work with families, bereaved what does inquest do . We work with families, bereaved of what does inquest do . We work with families, bereaved of the l with families, bereaved of the state related deaths. We have been working with some of the grenfell survivors and families and monitoring the inquiry and Legal Process. We and monitoring the inquiry and Legal Process and monitoring the inquiry and legal aroma Legal Process. We saw Sir Keir Starmer in Legal Process. We saw Sir Keir Starmer in the Legal Process. We saw Sir Keir Starmer in the house Legal Process. We saw Sir Keir Starmer in the house of Legal Process. We saw Sir Keir Starmer in the house of Commons Yesterday apologised on behalf of the british state to the families, the survivors, the bereaved families. But we have seen many take Public Inquiries in recent years in the uk, the covid inquiry, to namejust one, yet there is no mechanism, is there, to monitor what happens to the recommendations of such an inquiry after the time, effort and public money that goes into them . Absolutely, i work on keir starmer s apology i welcomed his apology and it was right. An absolute scandal. It is one of many. My frustration is seeing preventable deaths being repeated, recommendations being made from inquests and inquiries, and yet there is no mechanism to ensure that action is actually taken to prevent deaths. What we see is the cycle of repeated and preventable deaths occurring and it is particularly significant for grenfell because if you remember the lakanal house fire, there was a coroners inquest, people died, there were recommendations made, the government treated the recommendations with utter contempt. Had they been enacted, maybe grenfell would not had happened. The recommendations not had happened. The recommendations seem to have been passed around, not acted on, dont they . During that period you refer to. One of the recommendations specifically talked about Cladding On High Rise buildings and refurbishments which is exactly what happened at grenfell. What would you like to see happen by way of accountability . Who would monitor the recommendations from these inquiries and see that something is actually being done with the recommendations . What we are calling for as inquest is a national Oversight Mechanism which would be an independent body that would monitor, analyse and follow up on responses to recommendations from inquests, Public Inquiries, and reviews, and make sure that those state and corporate bodies to whom the recommendations are made to publicly account for Action Or Indeedin publicly account for action or indeed in action. This would be transparent, it would be available to bereaved but to all those who have an interest in public health and safety. And this is notjust in the interests of bereaved people but in the interest of public safety. But in the interest of public safe...~ safety. That would take the burden, wouldnt safety. That would take the burden, wouldnt it, safety. That would take the burden, wouldnt it, off burden, wouldnt it, off bereaved families and survivors of tragedies such as this to drive it forward . Drive it forward . Families alwa s drive it forward . Families always feel drive it forward . Families always feel they drive it forward . Families always feel they have drive it forward . Families always feel they have to i drive it forward . Families i always feel they have to be drive it forward . Families always feel they have to be the ones to drive the cultural change and that places an incredible emotional toll on those families, not least when they see other tragedies happening. And this is in the interests of everybody. I very much hope that if this government are truly committed to learning and ensuring proper and Accountability Table implement this.

Take up huge amounts of time, effort and public money as well, that actually the recommendations that come out of inquiries like that come out of inquiries like that will be carried forward and have effect, as deborah was saying, had that happened after the recommendations from the coroner who reported on to lakanal house fire, another Tower Block Fire in london in 2009, six people died. Perhaps grenfell could have been avoided. We will be packed with more Reaction And Analysis throughout the day. For now, back to you. Thank you. Us officials have imposed sanctions on the two top editors of the russian state funded broadcaster rte, accusing them of participating in a kremlin backed operation to interfere with the president ial election in november. Here is the us attorney general. These websites were designed to appear to american readers as if they were major us News sites, like the Washington Post or fox News, but in fact, they were fake sites. They were filled with russian Government Propaganda that had been created by the kremlin to reduce international support for ukraine, bolster pro russian policies and interests, and influence voters in the united states and in other countries. Internal documents of the kremlin described the content as, quote, Bogus Stories Disguised as Newsworthy events, close quote. This malign Influence Campaign has been referred to as doppelganger. The russian Public Relations companies drove viewers to these websites by deploying influencers and paid Social Media advertisements. They also created fake Social Media profiles, posing as us citizens, post comments on Social Media platforms with links to the sites. According to sdas records, it actively sought to, quote, eliminate the possibility of detection of the russian footprint. Next, bangladesh, it has been a month since the dramatic asking of prime minister sheikh hasina. Bangladeshs clothing factories supplying Fast Fashion Brands are limping back to normality. The countrys newington government faces long term economic challenges which will take years to fix new interim government. Back up and running after political turmoil roiled the worlds second largest Source Market for ready garments. At this knitwear company, workers are in a race against time to finish up these christmas sweaters. The big concern at Garment Factories like these is not so much the short term monetary losses, but its really the reputational damage that bangladesh may suffer on the international stage. And the worry now is that long term political instability could mean cancelled orders and Supply Chains relocating to other parts of the world. This man, whose family founded this Export Unit 20 years ago, is worried. Translation bangladesh doesnt have enough dollar reserves. How will we pay for imports of yarn from India And China if we dont have forex . Customers arent able to visit for Order Placements either because they arent getting travel insurance. We might see a hit in the Spring Summer Season if there is a loss of confidence about the economy. Outside the Garment Factories, these students were part of the dramatic protests that brought down sheikh hasinas government. Theyve all been unemployed for more than two years. Translation the government should encourage the youth to join the private sector. We are hopeful because the new leader is an entrepreneur himself. Translation right now, | we do not get the right skills from our universities to get private jobs. We need to be better trained. Bangladeshs failure to do this comes into sharp focus at this deserted it park. An ambitious project launched in 2015, it was meant to house thousands of skilled techies who would help the country diversify and reduce its overreliance on garments. Ten years on, its almost completely empty. We have been investing in physical infrastructure, but how much we have invested in human infrastructure, right . Human resource are the Raw Material of this industry. From the new government, we need proper Planning And Investment in developing the right human resource. On the streets of dhaka, theres still simmering anger against the previous regime for all thats been lost. But this young nation of 170 Million people has now pinned its hopes on a new interim government. It has a monumental task ahead. Nikhil inamdar, bbc News, dhaka. Water Company Bosses could be banned from taking bonuses and sent to jail under new legislation. Increased powers to regulate us to act when companies pollute water and it should make it easier to give out fines. Here is our environment correspondent. For decades, both profits and sewage have flowed from englands privatised Water Companies. Dividends have been paid to shareholders and multi million Pound Pay packages to Company Bosses. Last year, the sewage spilled for 3. 6 million hours. But could things be about to change . This new legislation makes it easierfor the Environment Agency to take Enforcement Action and introduces tougher penalties for executives. If they obstruct an investigation, they could now face up to two years in jail. Bonuses for bosses will only be allowed if their companies arejudged by the regulator to have met both environmental and financial standards. What these new laws are doing is its bringing Back Accountability into a system where the public feel there has been no accountability whatsoever, despite the fact that last year We Saw record levels of pollution in our rivers, lakes and seas. The previous government, for 1h years, let them get away with this. This new law gives the regulator the tough new powers they need to crack down on these kinds of abuses. But is it really the laws that have been the problem . Many campaigners say regulators should still have done more to investigate and take action over sewage spills. We actually have perfectly decent laws, perfectly, you know, acceptable legal framework. The problem is its never been enforced. And what this bill does is comes up with some nice emotive phrases, like Prison Sentences and banning bonuses and so on, but it doesnt address the fundamental problem. We have a set of regulations already and theyre not being enforced, and the only way theyre going to be enforced is by our regulators to be properly funded and empowered to do the job theyre supposed to be doing. This bill is an attempt by the government to tackle the worst excesses of the water industry, but it wont, on its own, stop the sewage spills. Thats going to take billions of pounds of investment in new infrastructure, and negotiations are continuing between the regulator and the Water Companies as to how much all of our bills are going to have to rise to pay for it.

A month on from riots which shocked the uk, the driver of a car targeted by violent mob says he is still traumatised and thought he was going to die. Marius, not his real name, says he feared for his life. The vicious attack was being filmed and shared to millions on Social Media. He has been speaking to us. In the moment, you can die there. So two things you are dying, its very, very dramatic. This was the moment marius, not his real name, and his two cousins were attacked during the violent unrest in hull a month ago. They start to jump on my car, to punch with some things metals, everything they had in the hand. I was trying to reverse back. They broke my window, they took my key, my phones and everything. We was very scared. I had some punches. Marius and his two cousins managed to escape, taking refuge in a nearby Hotel Housing Asylum seekers, which, moments before, was also underfire. While marius, a delivery driver, tried to get back to work, his cousins fled to romania. What about you . These are just a couple of the people whove been jailed for their part in the disorder and the attack on marius and his cousins. But for the young father, the sentences are not enough to
