Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
The bulletin led with a passenger flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv making an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia after a pilot was stabbed. Reports described a fight between pilots, a descent of 17,000 feet in two minutes, and an emergency signal used for hijacking before the plane landed at Tabuk. The captain and co-pilot were taken to hospital, passengers were reported safe, and an Israeli official said a serious disaster was averted while Israel's national security minister called it a terrorist attack. The Prime Minister defended plans to end the existing pensions triple lock in 2030 to help fund a national care service, after the Conservatives accused him of taking money from pensioners. The bulletin also reported a 4% energy price cap rise from tomorrow and a forecast 16% rise in January, with pressure on the government to offer support.
The Met Police submitted final prosecution files on the Grenfell Tower fire to the Crown Prosecution Service, with 20 organisations and 54 individuals potentially facing charges including corporate manslaughter. Five men arrested near RAF Fairford were released on police bail; the BBC understands one dialled 999 himself, no improvised explosive devices were found and petrol was recovered. France was reported to be ending its involvement in the one in, one out scheme for small boat crossings, Greggs announced plans to close four factories and cut 740 jobs, and a Tennessee prisoner was set to become the first woman executed in the US in more than 200 years. Three teenagers died after a car crashed into the River Wear in Sunderland, with a 17-year-old boy arrested, while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex accused a photographer of extraordinary recklessness near their children's school. Manchester City's chief executive accused the Premier League of a conspiracy theory after the club was found guilty of financial rule breaches, and a digital museum was announced to make 70 million natural history specimens available online.
In the West, students starting university were urged to get the Meningitis B vaccination, and a man charged with murdering Jill Billet in Downend was due to stand trial next March. The police and crime commissioner for Gloucestershire urged politicians not to speculate about the RAF Fairford incident, and the restoration of Birnbeck Pier reached a milestone with a quarter of its replacement deck completed and the public walking on it for the first time in 30 years. An 80-year-old squash player returned to Bristol after winning a seventh world title. Later in the bulletin, East Midlands Airport was reported to be raising its rapid drop-off charge from £5 to £8 while cutting the time from 15 to 10 minutes, and Project Empty Chair, a campaign to help adults make friends, was described as having grown from one pub meeting in Essex into an international movement.

Charged quote Andy Burnham to end existing pensions triple lock in 2030
According to government officials, the new system could save £15 billion a year by 2040, but the Conservatives have criticised the plans, saying it takes money out of the pockets of pensioners. So what do members of the public think? Well, unsurprisingly, there's been a mixed reaction. I mean, I've got a 25-year-old son and a 24-year-old son.

Charged quote Andy Burnham to end existing pensions triple lock in 2030
I mean, how can they save up with spending £1,000 on rent every month? So what he's doing now for the young people is really good. It's good that a politician is actually grasping the nettle rather than just sort of suggesting they might change it and being fearful of the backlash and them backing down.

Charged quote Andy Burnham to end existing pensions triple lock in 2030
if they're getting value for money from the state in terms of a national care service, et cetera, I think people will be all right with that. I know there's a lot of pension poverty. I think the elderly people are at a disadvantage in that if they're low income or have got a low income, they don't have the capacity to earn that extra income.

and earnings growth, they add to the pensions bill or the rate of pensions, and what you get then is pensions rising much faster than earnings growth, which means the nation simply couldn't keep up with that ballooning bill. Now, that is why a lot of analysts have been saying something has got to give, and something has given.
