with malta and north macedonia with a shoulder injury. good afternoon and welcome to the bbc news at one. a senior officer involved in the stephen lawrence murder case was corrupt, according to a secret metropolitan police report from the year 2000 uncovered by the bbc. it said ray adams was cleared by a corruption probe which relied on false testimony from a man linked to the family of one of stephen's killers. the revelation contradicts years of police denial about the role of corrupt officers in the case. daniel de simone reports.

the spectre of police corruption has long haunted the stephen lawrence murder. for three decades, scotland yard kept the secret we now expose. the met knew about it, that's what's so shocking. today we reveal a met police report concluded that a senior officer involved in the case, ray adams, was corrupt. the early failure to bring stephen's killers to justice has led to suspicion that corruption infected the investigation. the father of one killer was clifford norris, a gangsterfrom a criminalfamily known for suspicious contact with police. the public inquiry into the murder probe to the issue. it didn't find corruption. somebody contacted us this morning... ray adams, a former commander, appeared as a witness. but i've now seen a secret scotland yard report into the stephen lawrence case that concludes ray adams was corrupt. it says ray adams was cleared by a flawed corruption probe which relied on lies from an informant linked

to the family headed by the father of one of stephen's killers. it says a totally fictitious account by the informant was used to discredit a witness against ray adams. the informant must have been coached by ray adams or another officer, and this amounted to flagrant acts of attempting to pervert the course of justice. the public inquiry into the murder didn't hear about this evidence from the informant. the barrister who represented stephen's family says the information would have been key. the met seem to have covered up the true nature of adams, so they must have known what he was really like, so that his reputation was protected. it would have made, in my view, a very substantial difference. the witness discredited by the informant was criminal james malone, who'd made comments apparently suggesting he'd paid ray adams. i was on trial at the london sessions... the informant said that he'd heard malone boast of making false corruption claims about adams.

but the secret report says this was a lie, there was no link between the informant and malone. i tracked down the other man said by the informant to have heard malone admitted making false claims about ray adams. the man told me he'd never seen or met malone and the met police have never even asked him about the informant�*s account. the secret report says there was no evidence ray adams influenced the murder inquiry. stephen's family now want further investigation by the met. the bbc is doing itsjob, investigating what happened in stephen's case. so there is a real need to look at this. and if there is a tiny scintilla of that happening, the met should take it up with open arms. ray adams says he's asked the met to appoint a senior officer to investigate the serious allegations against him. the met didn't answer my questions.

the force says it will review the material before deciding whether any further action is required. stephen's family want justice and the full truth. daniel de simone, bbc news. rishi sunak�*s dramatically revamped cabinet has met this morning, with former prime minister david cameron as the new foreign secretary. it's his first return to front line politics since resigning in 2016. 0ur political correspondent damian grammaticas has the latest. seven yea rs seven years after he chose to walk away from downing street and the job of prime minister, david, now lord cameron, is back. with him, a minister who he actually first appointed to his cabinet in 2010. following behind, the man he was yesterday shuffled out of the job of foreign secretary, to make way for mr cameron. james cleverly is now home secretary. it's more than a year since rishi sunak took the top

tents by the homeless, something that the home secretary talked about not long ago. also, the new home secretary james cleverly made reference to the row over the rwanda policy, james cleverly suggesting it may not be a yes or no ruling. and straight after cabinet, meeting with the metropolitan police commissioner, sir mark rowley, to discuss that weekend process, which, according to some of suella braverman's process, were exacerbated by some of her comments on the integrity of the police. while lots of conservatives are very happy with the change of direction, signalled by the reshuffle, there was real concern on the right of the party. a lot of them notjust unhappy about the perceived shift towards the centre ground, but angry, frankly, that suella braverman has been removed. some of

joint committee on vaccination and immunisation has dot long—standing evidence over many years, from australia, the us, canada and germany. it found not only does drastically reduce the cases of chickenpox, but also hospital admissions. interestingly, back in 2009, they decided against advising routine immunisation, because there are fears it could lead to a rise in a related condition in later life, called shingles, where the chickenpox virus gets reactivated in the body. they have looked at the evidence and said that will not happen, they don't down to the government now to make the decision whether to roll this out. ., ., , ., ., israeli tanks are now reported to be surrounding al shifa — that's gaza's largest hospital. the world health organization has warned the hospital

is "nearly a cemetery" — with patients, staff, and displaced people possibly trapped inside. the us and uk, like many other countries, offered theirfull support to israel following hamas's brutal attack on seven october — but over the last few days appeals to israel to exercise restraint have become louder, with us presidentjoe biden and rishi sunak both pushing for greater protection of palestinian hospitals and civilians. hamas, which governs gaza, is designated a terrorist organisation by the uk. let's go live tojerusalem, and our correspondent yolande knell. we have been hearing this lunchtime that palestinians trapped inside gaza's biggest hospital have been digging a mass grave for the people who have died there since israeli troops encircled it. of course, israel vowed to crush hamas after the deadly seventh october attacks,

but the siege of gaza, the bombardment, the number of civilians who have been killed, are really alarming many countries. you might find some images in my report is upsetting. a grim routine in gaza, searching the rubble for survivors after an overnight air strike in the far north of the strip. and in gaza city too, the bombing continues unabated. israeli ground forces have been closing in here, around shifa hospital, saying it covers an underground command centre for hamas. hamas and local doctors deny it. inside, thousands are still sheltering and being treated in the wards and corridors. israel says they are safe to leave, medics told the bbc that wasn't true. just weeks ago, al—shifa was the cornerstone of gaza's health service. this was its premature babies unit. but now, with power cuts, more than 30 babies are fighting for their lives, and time is running

out to save them. since these pictures were taken at the weekend, several babies are said to have died. across the territory, doctors are facing impossible choices. and then we've been in theatre, done about five cases today. the last one, another terrible story. a young man who lost all his family, 40% burns. we are caught between a rock and a hard place. if we don't do an operation then he will die from the sepsis, if we do do an operation he may die from problems with blood loss. israel says it is taking over key hamas government buildings and has killed many of its fighters. but there is growing international pressure as the war closes in on gaza's hospitals. israel says hamas is using them

as an instrument of war, us presidentjoe biden says shifa hospital must be protected. and today israelis have new reasons to mourn. it's now confirmed that veteran peace activist vivian silver died in last month's hamas attacks. and the army announced the death of a 19—year—old soldier, noa marciano, who was kidnapped. hamas says that she was killed in an israeli air strike. now in its sixth week, each day brings more suffering for both sides in this war, and today brought a reminder of the onset of winter, which will add to the misery in gaza. yolande knell, bbc news, jerusalem. a british family who fled their home in gaza with only a small suitcase between them has spoken of their sadness at leaving. emad abuassi, his wife and four children moved to gaza from blackpool a year ago — but returned to the uk last week. our wales correspondent hywel griffith went to visit

them at their emergency accomodation in cardiff. a step at a time. emad and his son ameer are still finding their bearings after arriving in cardiff last week. it's a year since they moved from blackpool to gaza to be near emad's family. the children were settled and enjoying trips to the beach until the conflict started and they had to flee. i remember i wasjust going to bed. i was just sat on my phone and then the neighbour is banging on the door and we open it and he's saying, "run, the building in front of us is going to get bombed." and we asked him why and he said, "there's no time to talk. we just need to get out of here." they fled north on gaza with just a suitcase between six of them, heading south to stay in a flat with

40 heading south to stay in a flat with a0 others. as they tried several 1t0 others. as they tried several times to cross to europe, they spoke about their journey. times to cross to europe, they spoke about theirjourney. irate times to cross to europe, they spoke about theirjourney.— about their “ourney. we are 'ust waiting mi about theirjourney. we are 'ust waiting for the i about theirjourney. we are 'ust waiting for the crossing i about theirjourney. we are 'ust waiting for the crossing to h about theirjourney. we are just| waiting for the crossing to open. about theirjourney. we are just i waiting for the crossing to open. is a british passport holders they were eventually allowed to cross, leaving behind their new life and their family. this is the saddest moment i have been across in my whole life. when i left the border, iwas looking behind me, like, just imagining who's going to be alive, who's going to be dying after all this. i don't know who to pick, but as i said before, everybody's life there is in danger. could be my mum passed away tomorrow. my dad, my brother, my cousin, my neighbour, my friend. something, but you canjust hope allah, god help, everyone felt certain of this problem. they came to cardiff as a friend

an investigation by bbc news has found a black market trade in delivery app accounts is allowing children to sign up as riders. the accounts are bought and sold on social media with no identity checks. the home office is demanding a reform of the system and has summoned majorfood delivery companies for a meeting later today. they say they have "high standards" and "robust criteria." angus crawford reports. leo wanted to be a millionaire. yeah. he just wanted to earn money and deal and hustle. atjust 15, on his bicycle, leo started riding for deliveroo. two years later, still working for the app, he was killed on a borrowed motorbike. no—one's accountable. not at all, for anything. it's not right. the rules say you've got to be 18 to work for the company,

but leo easily got round them because of something called substitution. when you work with deliveroo, i you can also appoint a substitute. deliveroo lets drivers share their accounts. if you can't do a day, someone else can take your place. but it's up to you to check they're over 18, have no convictions and are allowed to work. but that system is open to abuse. we've found a thriving underground trade in deliveroo accounts for sale or rent on social media to anyone who's prepared to pay — both adults and children. we set up a fake account, biker boy, saying we were 16 years old and messaged some of the sellers. "age doesn't matter," said this one. "i don't really care, bro. they don't check," said another. and all this because of substitution, which all the big delivery apps allow. we think that practice

is completely wrong. this is not a victimless activity. we've seen a young person die when he was doing a job that he shouldn't have been doing, according to the rules of that company. it is perpetuating exploitation and enabling illegal working in our country. and this is why the government is concerned. we're out with police just to see if there's anyone that's illegally present and working. friday night in brighton. lots of people are ordering takeaways, lots of delivery riders on the roads. is he not pulling over? but not all of them should be. at this time he is currently under arrest. so far this year teams like this have arrested 381 suspected illegal riders, many of them using substitute accounts for the big online delivery apps. deliveroo told us it takes its responsibilities extremely seriously and demands riders must

have the right to work in the uk, and says it takes a zero tolerance approach towards any rider who fails to meet their legal obligations. but that's no comfort for leo's family. have deliveroo been in touch with you since leo's death? no. they wouldn't even know he existed. behind the apps we all take for granted, hidden victims of the gig economy. angus crawford, bbc news. in the last hour, the bbc has issued an update on its review into the conduct of russell brand whilst he was working at the bbc. our media correspondent david sillito is here. david, this has been a huge story, hasn't it? what does the review say? this is all about a dispatches programme in which a number of women came forward with allegations, the most serious of which related to

incidents in america of sexual assault and rape. it covers the period between 2006 and 2008, from 2006 to 2008 russell brand was working for the bbc, so did they know anything about that they do? this interim report says there were two complaints appetite about inappropriate behaviour and workplace conduct and a third was made in 2019 about an alleged incident that took place in los angeles. now it has a major two more people have come forward with allegations about his behaviour during the period when he was working at the bbc. there was an issue raised in the programme about a woman who said her relationship began when she was 16, she said she was ferried around in cars booked through the bbc system. the bbc says it does not have any records going back that car so it has no evidence one way or another whether that is

true, but this is an interim report and they are still asking people to come forward with any information. thank you for keeping us up to date, david. the managing director of mcdonald's uk has been giving evidence to mps about the working culture at the company. the hearing is being held after a six—month bbc investigation talked to over 100 workers, who described a toxic culture of sexual assault, harassment, racism and bullying at mcdonald's. zoe conway is in westminster. zoe, what did the chief executive have to say? alistair macrow said the allegations uncovered by the bbc were truly horrific and said he was speaking as the father of an 18—year—old daughter. at times he was put under great pressure by the chair of the business and trade select committee liam byrne. mr macrow, it sounds like profit is more important than protecting workers. that is absolutely not the case. the most important thing - in our business is our people.

our people are our brand, our people are the face i of mcdonald's to our customers. we do everything we can to look after our people. j we invest heavily in their training, we make sure they have a good i environment to work— in and opportunities to progress very quickly through the business. they are what makes l mcdonald's successful. without our people, - there wouldn't be any profit. the committee also heard some pretty startling statistics from the chief executive. he said that more than 400 complaints have been made to a specially set up in —— investigation handling unit set up by mcdonald's in the wake of our investigation. he said 17 cases of sexual harassment had resulted in disciplinary action and a further 27 are being investigated. he said 18 members of staff have been fired as a result of our allegations.— our allegations. thank you very much, our allegations. thank you very much. he _ worries about spiralling living costs may be easing. that's the hopeful suggestion

coming from figures just released by the ons — the office for national statistics. for nearly two years the price of food and fuel have been rising faster than wages. that put big pressure on household finances. now pay growth has outstripped inflation — or the rate at which prices are rising — by the most in two years. our business correspondent andy verity explains. the price of food isn't going up quite as fast as it once was, and the wages of those who make it are rising, but not quite as quickly as they were. that's changed from most of the past two years, when workers' living standards dropped, as prices rose faster than wages. since the summer, prices have slowed down and wages have crossed over, so the average worker's pay is now rising faster than prices, leaving them 1% better off than last year. this gastro pub and hotel near canterbury gave staff a 10% pay rise in the spring — one reason it had to raise its prices — but customers are feeling the pinch now, and they're not sure they can keep raising wages and prices

by as much if they want to hang on to the business. the prices have now been going up monthly and we've been absorbing them for a long time, and we recently had to increase our prices. if we get to april and our cost base goes up by, say, 10% on the wages, we need to find another... it's more than £1,000 a week, which is a lot of food and drink to sell. with the government taking more from households and firms in tax, private sector firms aren't raising pay by quite as much as earlier this year. but in finance and business services — from insurance to consultants to lawyers — pay�*s up by 9.4%. and even in the public sector, wages are now rising faster than they have in 20 years, before taking account of inflation, up by an average of 7.3%, but the rate of unemployment held steady. vacancies have fallen quite dramatically over the past few months, whereas unemployment has only risen a little bit. and we think, actually,

there's room for more of the same in that sense, that there's more room for vacancies to fall. as i said, we think unemployment will increase, but it won't be too much. if you look at the latest data from employers' payrolls, that shows that pay rose in the year to october by 5.9%. that's a lot slower than earlier this year, when it got up about 9%. that gives interest rate setters on the bank of england's monetary policy committee less reason to raise interest rates again. in the city of london, traders now think, on average, it's likely the bank of england won't raise interest rates any more in the coming months and that by next summer, they'll have started to fall. andy verity, bbc news. there have been ceremonial gun salutes in honour of the king's 75th birthday. it's understood he'll be getting a transatlantic birthday phone call from prince harry. king charles has chosen to mark the day by launching a project to help people facing food poverty. here's our royal correspondent

nicholas witchell. a gun salute in london's green park, to mark the king's 75th birthday. a further milestone in the year of his coronation. but the celebrations are deliberately low—key. yesterday at highgrove, his home in gloucestershire, hejoined others, individuals and members of organisations who are marking their 75th anniversaries, among whom were representatives of the windrush generation. # happy birthday to you... # the king cut a rather grand birthday cake for distribution to the guests. as the king launches his birthday initiative, the coronation food project. i'll put a pallet in the chiller, yeah? every single day, as the king has seen himself, many tonnes of food from britain's retailers potentially go to waste. the king's initiative is to set up

distribution centres to close the gap between food waste and food need. under his leadership, i'm seeing the food industry come together, retailers and manufacturers, putting aside their competitive differences to focus on both reducing waste, but also increasing the amount of product is circulated amongst the charities. so, a birthday with all the customary trappings, but which the king hopes will yield practical benefits. nicholas witchell, bbc news. it looked a bit drizzly. time for a look at the weather. here's elizabeth rizzini. rainy but not cold? it is not, it is really very _ rainy but not cold? it is not, it is really very mild _ rainy but not cold? it is not, it is really very mild for— rainy but not cold? it is not, it is really very mild for november. rainy but not cold? it is not, it isj really very mild for november for most of us, temperatures in essex got to almost 17 celsius yesterday but temperatures are on a roller—coaster ride over the next few days also. a milder air is in
