asher left school without gcses. when you get older you realise you haven't got these opportunities because when it goes by, what else are you going to do? it's been a tough realjourney... now 20, asher tells me he's not giving up. he's trying to get more basic vocational skills. i feel that in my life i'm on the edge so i've got to work, i've got no choice. i'm not going to be a person out there and just giving up and giving up on their life. people get so depressed. i don't want to end up at that stage. if you fail your gcses there are second chances, but every year some 18 and 19—year—olds leave education without the basic qualifications they need to get into work. 561,000 16—year—olds took gcses in england last year and 71,000 got no passes of grade four or above. another 23,000 passed at least one gcse but not maths or english. so, asher is not alone in hoping for a second chance. many economists say getting more to higher technical skills should be an election priority. it holds us back as a country bec

dina asher—smith has been nominated after a year in which she won 200 metre gold at the world athletics championships in doha. england cricket world cup hero ben stokes was the first name to be announced. the third nominee will be revealed on the bbc radio 1xtra at 1:20pm. just the one game in the premier league yesterday, but what a game it was! six goals shared between sheffield united and manchester united at bramall lane. ole gunnar solskjaer‘s team had been two goals down at one stage, but they looked to have sealed the winner through marcus rashford after a dramatic comeback, but there was no way sheffield united were finishing empty handed, and in injury time oli mcburnie clinched the equaliser. the 60, 65, 75 minutes, they are not good enough. that shows the quality of us, you can still score three goals and we should had one or two more in a game that we don‘t really perform. great britain and england hockey player sam ward says he will do "everything he can" to return to hockey after losing the sight in his left eye. this follows earlier reports that ward had in fact retir

laxman action-athon, the reason people -- laxman asher time, the reason -- explain in english right now why we are seeing coming out of these manufacturing troubles. i thought that was the heart of our distress. lakshman: well, on global industrial cycles -- that is not country-specific at all -- we are seeing, in the forward-looking data, indicators that have started to move to the upside. the global industrial growth cycle seems to be bottoming. next, ithen see it think, in very short leading indicators of global industrial growth, which will include the global pmi's, and it will include commodity price inflation in industrial commodity price growth. you have not really seen it yet an actual industrial production growth. that still is plumbing the bottom, i think, of the cycle. when we dig into where is it showing up first, each cycle is different, and it is hard to predict where it is going to come from. it looks as though it is coming from europe. it looks like that is where the bottoming -- even in germany, which took it on the chin with all of the car in missions and the china --
