child sexual exploitation may now be more of a priority for the authorities but it would be naive to think that it isn�t happening any more. but police say such a failure on such a scale could never happen again here. i know in the past 18 months since i�ve managed this team, that, when we have had reports of victims or potential victims of exploitation, we have moved rapidly to arrest perpetrators. a weary health worker who helped victims had this response. i can't applaud the fact that services are better now because so they should be. many of those responsible for abuse in rochdale were never charged. police say that could change. there�*s still hurt and a huge feeling of injustice for too many people in this pennine town. danny savage, bbc news, rochdale. train drivers will go out on strike again at the end of the month — in a new series of walk—outs over pay. members of the train drivers union

but we also need a planning rules change because it takes far too long to do anything in this country. we need the national grid to move at a much faster pace because at the moment it is giving connection dates for the 2030s. that will never work. we need an industrial strategy. of course we need investment and i�m very pleased to make the case for investment in the future and that is why we will invest £28 billion in total by the second half of the parliament, subject to what the government has already assigned to put in on green prosperity and of course within our fiscal rules. that is straightforward but i do think this idea that it is only the money that counts, it isn�t reflected in the conversations i am having with those that we want to partner with us. and for every pound the government puts in, we want to trigger £3 of private investment because i think when a government invests they are entitled to get the returns for the british taxpayer. yes or no, will the £28 billion investment definitely be in the labour manifesto?

something wrong or do something wrong, i can understand the human need... and, actually, it�s often coming from a good place, which is, "i don�t want to upset people..." and then being slightly angry that they might upset people when they know they�re a good person. those are all really understandable emotional things that human beings feel. i don�t know about what is and isn�t censorious in comedy. what i do know is that the very, very funny things often do take quite difficult subjects and use them. so when a joke is really, really funny, it can deal with really quite challenging, difficult subjects. i can think of... i can think of ten comedians off the top of my head who do that regularly at very high level. i think there is an issue, if it isn�t nuanced and funny enough and specific enough, it can be seen as a little bit sort of lazy or pejorative. but i think the challenge there is to take subject matter that feels challenging

very funny things often do take quite difficult subjects and use them. so when a joke is really, really funny, it can deal with really quite challenging, difficult subjects. i can think of... i can think of ten comedians off the top of my head who do that regularly at very high level. i think there is an issue, if it isn�t nuanced and funny enough and specific enough, it can be seen as a little bit sort of lazy or pejorative. but i think the challenge there is to take subject matter that feels challenging and be extremely funny. right. that conquers all in the end? in comedy, it does. one last challenge for you, and this is relevant to what�s happening in the united states with the screenwriters�* strike. yeah. partly, it�s about money and the dynamic of power in their industry, but it�s also about their fears of artificial intelligence and the degree to which the big studios and others may already be working on projects
