they know each other so well, it's their fourth meeting in the champions league knockout stages in five seasons. you cannot come herejust to control the game or to go here to try to hurt them, to punish them, to try to let them feel we are here to score the goals. and then that makes us have to read how you have to do, how you control it. so... so we are talking about real madrid, that has ability to control many, many aspects of the game. at the same time to have to... with who we are, try to impose our game. another packed day of qualifiers for next year's women's european championship — 25 in all. and there's been a good start for two of the home nations. wales winning 6—0 away in kosovo and northern ireland were 3—1winners in bosnia and herzegovina joe lynskey reports. kosovo away on the lunchtime. but so far from kosovo away on the lunchtime. but so farfrom home, one thing is

oxford high school in michigan. it 0xford high school in michigan. it is a landmark case because these are the first parents to be held responsible for school shooting carried out by one of their children. so the really significant moment there in the us, with so many school shootings, the parents being sound found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced, both of them, 22 10-15 and sentenced, both of them, 22 10—15 years. if there is more reaction from the court we will return there, but you can see the live pictures and as you click on to the qr code, you can will find much more coverage on the bbc news website, we are streaming events from that court. it's been described the one of the worst miscarriages ofjustice in british legal history. hundreds of people who ran post offices across the country
5:41 pm
were wrongly prosecuted for theft and false accounting by the post office which is owned by the british government. the cases, between 1999 and 2015, were based on a faulty accounting software system called horizon. alan bates, the former sub—postmaster who led the campaign to expose this it scandal, has been giving evidence at the post office inquiry in london. the evidence is starting to appear to enable them to, let's see where they get to with all of this and it will take it from there. well, i think the main thing at the moment is for the original victim groups to get their money sooner rather than later. i mean, it's gone on far too long. later. i mean, it's gone on far too lonu. ~ ,

0ur correspondent, azadeh moshiri, has been following the inquiry from central london today. the automated responses that he was getting back, the letters that came back with the bullet points, showing that the obviously knew those other postmasters had exactly the same issue, and more than ten years later that they had no knowledge about what was going on. not only could they have put a stop to it, they could've actually prevented the whole thing actually happening in the first place. let's speak to kevan jones who's labour mp for north durham. a long—time campaigner for the sum postmasters, what if you made of today's events and the very graphic evidence, the human evidence that we heard? it evidence, the human evidence that we heard? . , , evidence, the human evidence that we heard? .,, , , .,, evidence, the human evidence that we heard? ., , , , ., , ., evidence, the human evidence that we heard? , , ., , heard? it was very pleasing to see alan 'ust heard? it was very pleasing to see

5:46 pm
are going to be very complicated and not so much the time but the complexity of it, and the delay has beenin complexity of it, and the delay has been in part on the post office releasing information. it's also in terms of the lawyers in these cases, what i want to ensure is those individuals get all the money they are entitled to come because no amount of compensation is going to replace the hurt and suffering which these people have been through. just a final thought, because this is a really crucial phase of the inquiry. some of the top bosses are going to be questioned in terms of potential consequences if, at a state of, wrongdoing is proven against some of those people, some of the lawyers involved in bringing these cases, do you think it has to wait till the end of this public inquiry or not necessarily? trio end of this public inquiry or not necessarily?— end of this public inquiry or not necessaril ? ., ., �* . necessarily? no i don't, the ulrich -- the record _ necessarily? no i don't, the ulrich -- the record remains, _ necessarily? no i don't, the ulrich -- the record remains, people - necessarily? no i don't, the ulrich i -- the record remains, people were —— the record remains, people were hiding behind the inquirer inquiry.

lies are brought to book and the only way we're going to do that is get them in a court of law and getting them to answer those questions and ultimately if they are found guilty, take them to prison. we have to leave it there, it's a really busy afternoon, but thank you so much for speaking to us live on bbc news. the prime minister rishi sunak, and the president of rwanda , the prime minister rishi sunak, and the president of rwanda, have met, and say they are looking forward to flights carrying migrants to the african nation departing the uk "in the spring". downing street said the pair discussed the �*next stages of the legislation in parliament�* during their meeting inside number ten. but it's happened as the government is facing questions about how much housing will be for migrants sent there. let's speak to our political correspondent peter saull. welcome to housing in a moment, but in terms of that meeting between the two leaders and the timeline they are laying out, your assessment of

5:49 pm
the government says it has plans ready to go for example, but as you pointed out in the introduction, where exactly will we these migrants go when they do it eventually arrive in rwanda, and that is the question today. because the times is reported that one estate that had been built in the rwanda capital kigali supposedly earmarked for asylum—seekers, some 70% of the accommodation there has apparently been sold off to locals, leaving just space for a few dozen migrants at that particular accommodation and the former home secretary at suella braverman visited that particular state last year and she described the accommodation is beautiful, she praised the interior design, she today has said she's disappointed that it looks like the ambition as she put it to get lots of people on flights seems to have waned. none of that go from the government, they say they are still committed and getting thousands of people to rwanda, they are it's says the rwandan government is ready, the
5:50 pm
rwandan government is ready, the rwandan government is ready, the rwandan government has disputed the figures but the times has reported on saying that there are lots of other bits of housing that are available on this estate and several other places where they hope to house asylum—seekers, but it speaks to the pressure that is building on the prime minister to really deliver on this policy, i do think it's going to dominate the conversation here in westminster when we return from the easter break.— from the easter break. thanks a lot for that, thank _ from the easter break. thanks a lot for that, thank you. _ 0ur science editor polyp...

we'll have all the latest on the bradford arrest and all the latest from a really fascinating day at the post office and grey. some really telling human evidence. thanks for watching today, hope to see you the same time tomorrow. bye—bye. hello. tuesday was another wet, windy and fairly wild day of weather for many of us. we've had some really big waves around the coast, some coastal flooding, too, across parts of southern england and wales. this was the picture in new brighton, in wirral earlier on in the day. but the strongest of the winds, the heaviest of rain will be easing fairly quickly. so turning much quieter tonight and colder, especially in the east. as low pressure clears away into the north sea we've got this ridge of high pressure with us, at least temporarily, before the next weather system arrives. but under the clearing skies through this evening and tonight, those temperatures are going to drop quite quickly. so by the time we get to the early hours of wednesday morning, especially for central and eastern parts of scotland, central and eastern england, too — those temperatures 2—3 degrees in some of our urban areas, but a touch cool in that in the countryside. so i think a touch of frost
5:56 pm
around in the east. so the cold air mass with us. but it's not going to be long until this next area of milder air works in from the west behind this weather front, it's a warm front. it's going to track its way eastwards through wednesday, bringing rain, i think at times to all areas. best of any sunshine will be through the morning for eastern scotland and eastern england. there's the cloud and the rain, then tracking eastwards, the wind picking up from the southwest. so it's going to be a breezy day on wednesday. gusts up to around 30 miles an hour orso inland, perhaps a bit stronger than that around some coastal areas. but it won't be quite as windy as it has been during monday and tuesday. the heaviest of the rain will be across the north west of scotland here. but temperatures on the rise from the west so belfast up to around 16 degrees or so, probably one of the warmest spots on wednesday. moving through into thursday then, we have got that milder air with us because the winds are going to be coming in from more of a westerly direction. not much on this weather front. you can see here it will be easing away, but it could well bring some low cloud and drowsiness in the south to start the day.

low cloud and drizzliness in the south to start the day. probably the best of the brightness on thursday will be for parts of north east england and eastern scotland. but i think most places should brighten up through the day. again, a bit of a breeze coming in from the west or the southwest and lifting temperatures to 18 or 19 degrees for some of us. so it's looking a bit milder on thursday and that milder trend continues into friday as well. but look at the blue colours that then return as we head through sunday and into next week. so temporarily some slightly warmer weather on the cards, particularly towards the south, 19, 20 degrees in london. more unsettled, though, further north. and then we're all going to see those temperatures dropping down as we head through the course of next week. bye— bye.
