Tonight at Ten - David Cameron offends the Nigerians with unguarded

:00:00.:00:00.

comments about the country's corruption levels.

:00:07.:00:10.

The remarks were overheard at Buckingham Palace two days ahead

:00:11.:00:13.

of a major anti-corruption summit being hosted by Mr Cameron.

:00:14.:00:17.

Actually, we've got some leaders of some fantastically corrupt

:00:18.:00:22.

Nigeria and Afghanistan, possibly the two most corrupt

:00:23.:00:28.

We'll have details and reaction, as well as other overheard remarks

:00:29.:00:32.

about Britain's tricky relationship with China.

:00:33.:00:36.

The former Conservative leader, Iain Duncan Smith, accuses

:00:37.:00:43.

the European Union of being a "force for social injustice" which lets

:00:44.:00:44.

NASA announces the discovery of nearly 1,300 new planets

:00:45.:00:49.

SATs in England are being sabotaged by opponents of education reform,

:00:50.:00:55.

according to ministers, after a test paper was leaked.

:00:56.:01:03.

And Manchester United's bus was pelted with objects as it

:01:04.:01:06.

arrives for West Ham's last-ever match at Upton Park tonight.

:01:07.:01:12.

Coming up in Sportsday on BBC News: England manager Roy Hodgson pushes

:01:13.:01:16.

back the announcement of the squad for the European Championship

:01:17.:01:19.

The president of Nigeria said tonight his government was "shocked

:01:20.:01:47.

and embarrassed" by comments made by David Cameron at an event held

:01:48.:01:51.

The Prime Minister was overheard telling the Queen that Nigeria

:01:52.:01:55.

and Afghanistan were "fantastically corrupt" countries.

:01:56.:01:59.

Mr Cameron is due to host a major anti-corruption summit

:02:00.:02:02.

Downing Street insisted that Britain stood "shoulder to shoulder"

:02:03.:02:07.

with the leaders of both countries, as our diplomatic correspondent,

:02:08.:02:09.

The Prime Minister was among leading figures from both Housing of

:02:10.:02:22.

Parliament marking the Queen's 90th birthday at Buckingham Palace. The

:02:23.:02:28.

Palace cameraman captures the moment when Mr Cameron flanked by the

:02:29.:02:32.

Archbishop of Canterbury and the Leader of the House is joined by the

:02:33.:02:35.

Queen and the Speaker of the Commons.

:02:36.:03:09.

Was that simply the unvarnished truth or a diplomatic gaffe? David

:03:10.:03:17.

Cameron knows Nigeria's President well, they apparently agree on the

:03:18.:03:21.

need to tackle corruption but the President's spokesman said he was

:03:22.:03:24.

shocked and embarrassed and the remarks were out-of-date.

:03:25.:03:29.

TRANSLATION: It is disturbing that despite all the efforts made by

:03:30.:03:34.

President Buhari in fighting corruption in Nigeria, his efforts

:03:35.:03:40.

have gone unnoticed. It is possible that the Prime Minister was caught

:03:41.:03:43.

unawares or he was referring to how thing were done in the past without

:03:44.:03:48.

considering what has been done now. The Prime Minister's remarks have

:03:49.:03:51.

prompted a stream of reaction. A leading organisation in the fight

:03:52.:03:55.

against corruption still hopes the summit will expose abuse wherever it

:03:56.:04:01.

exists. Historically, it is true that Nigeria and Afghanistan have

:04:02.:04:05.

had major corruption problems and they continue to have them. At the

:04:06.:04:11.

same time, we have leaders in those countries that have sent strong

:04:12.:04:14.

signals that they want to change that. And let's remember, this is

:04:15.:04:22.

also important for the UK because the UK continues to provide a safe

:04:23.:04:28.

haven for corrupt money, both here and in its overseas territories. We

:04:29.:04:32.

know those countries that are at this summit are keen to tackle

:04:33.:04:38.

corruption and that is why it is so crass and counter-productive,

:04:39.:04:41.

complete diplomatic gaffe for the Prime Minister to slag them off as

:04:42.:04:44.

corrupt when we should be trying to work alongside them. Mr Cameron

:04:45.:04:48.

highlighting corruption in Afghanistan may also renew public

:04:49.:04:53.

doubt about the sacrifice of over 450 British lives there. One Tory

:04:54.:04:57.

back bencher tonight renewed pressure for global cuts in British

:04:58.:05:01.

aid. I think the two issues are different, overseas aid and

:05:02.:05:04.

corruption in foreign countries. I happen to think our overseas aid

:05:05.:05:11.

money is well-used when it is looking after refugees near to

:05:12.:05:15.

Syria. But badly used when it is going to corrupt countries for

:05:16.:05:19.

potential investment keeps where a lot is siphoned off. It's been a day

:05:20.:05:24.

of remarkable candour at Buckingham Palace. Last autumn's controversial

:05:25.:05:32.

Chinese state visit was subject of conversation by the Queen today when

:05:33.:05:36.

she was told about rows between Chinese officials on one side and

:05:37.:05:40.

the Metropolitan Police on the other. An official accompanies the

:05:41.:05:45.

Queen to meet police commander in charge during those difficult days

:05:46.:05:47.

at a Buckingham Palace garden party. It is highly unusual for two

:05:48.:06:37.

conversations like these to emerge from Buckingham Palace, particularly

:06:38.:06:39.

in a single day. Let's start with the comments about

:06:40.:06:49.

Nigeria and Afghanistan. The Nigerians are upset by the substance

:06:50.:06:53.

for the way in which he said it? They are upset by the substance and

:06:54.:06:56.

the way in which the Prime Minister put it. Using that phrase

:06:57.:06:59.

"fantastically corrupt" and leaving it to the Archbishop of Canterbury

:07:00.:07:04.

to interject that President Buhari is trying to tackle corruption and

:07:05.:07:08.

that he is making an effort. It is both the fact that the Prime

:07:09.:07:12.

Minister didn't acknowledge what was being done now, and the fact that he

:07:13.:07:18.

seemed to be quite content to sit on this phrase, "one of the most

:07:19.:07:22.

corrupt countries in the world". Having said that, Downing Street

:07:23.:07:25.

makes very clear its view that the Prime Minister and the President are

:07:26.:07:29.

on the same page, that President Buhari acknowledges the scale of the

:07:30.:07:34.

problem with his country and that he and President Ghani of Afghanistan

:07:35.:07:37.

have written in text for a book which will appear in parallel with

:07:38.:07:40.

this summit that they acknowledge they have a very great deal of work

:07:41.:07:46.

to do. As we have just seen there, not the only overheard comment from

:07:47.:07:52.

the Palace today? We heard the Queen in that remarkable conversation

:07:53.:07:57.

acknowledging I think the rudeness of the Chinese, she was very aware

:07:58.:08:02.

and she made that clear of the rows that had been going on leading up to

:08:03.:08:06.

and during the visit. It is something that during her lifetime

:08:07.:08:10.

she's almost never done, to enter into politics or international

:08:11.:08:14.

affairs. But we should remember that her son, the Prince of Wales,

:08:15.:08:21.

pointedly stayed away from the state banquet, this is a family that has

:08:22.:08:26.

strong feelings and some of that we heard today. James Robbins, thank

:08:27.:08:27.

you very much. The European Union is a "force

:08:28.:08:31.

for social injustice" according to the former Conservative leader,

:08:32.:08:32.

Iain Duncan Smith. Making his case for Britain to leave

:08:33.:08:35.

the EU, he blamed immigration for driving down wages and putting

:08:36.:08:38.

pressure on public services. But Labour's Jeremy Corbyn,

:08:39.:08:42.

launching Labour's referendum battlebus, insisted

:08:43.:08:44.

that EU membership had Our political editor,

Laura Kuenssberg, has the latest. For richer, for poorer,

:08:48.:08:52.

has EU immigration made life better A squeeze on public services,

:08:53.:08:57.

a squeeze on jobs. The EU, despite its grand,

:08:58.:09:03.

early intentions, has become, I believe, a friend of the haves,

:09:04.:09:09.

rather than a friend If we are not careful,

:09:10.:09:12.

we are going to see a huge rise, We're going to see increasing

:09:13.:09:18.

divides between people who have a home of their own and those,

:09:19.:09:23.

to coin a phrase used rather recently, who are at

:09:24.:09:27.

the back of the queue. For many of us, Eastern Europeans

:09:28.:09:30.

who have come to live and work here have been the human face

:09:31.:09:32.

of our EU membership. Mr Duncan Smith claim in too many

:09:33.:09:36.

places, even the Olympic Park, Britons have lost work to them

:09:37.:09:39.

because they will I found skilled workers there saying

:09:40.:09:43.

they couldn't get jobs there because they were outbid

:09:44.:09:48.

by migrant workers coming in and staying in bedsits

:09:49.:09:51.

and that was borne out by the fact that over 50% of the jobs were taken

:09:52.:09:55.

by foreign workers. Not only were you in

:09:56.:09:59.

the Cabinet for six years, while the Government's policies

:10:00.:10:02.

on all of this were agreed, which you agreed with,

:10:03.:10:04.

but you were also in charge of the Department for Work

:10:05.:10:06.

and Pensions where significant cuts were made to the kind of payments

:10:07.:10:09.

that go exactly to the kind of people that today you say

:10:10.:10:12.

you are concerned about? If we have an open border - and this

:10:13.:10:15.

is the point I keep making - you cannot control that competition

:10:16.:10:18.

at the bottom end which has become very fierce

:10:19.:10:20.

and comes as a detriment to those who have base costs

:10:21.:10:23.

which cannot change. There is some evidence immigration's

:10:24.:10:26.

pushed some wages down a little. But the possible economic turbulence

:10:27.:10:31.

if we left the EU could dwarf Yet, in pockets of the country,

new arrivals have put more And could that change how we vote

as they get older, they speak lots about what school

:11:06.:11:13.

they are going to get into, not having enough space

:11:14.:11:15.

and all the rest of it! Labour's campaigners might not have

:11:16.:11:17.

been strong in number but they were brave enough

:11:18.:11:20.

for the drizzle at their official launch, rejecting Iain

:11:21.:11:22.

Duncan Smith's argument, accusing the Outers

:11:23.:11:26.

of even being extreme. If we left the European Union,

:11:27.:11:29.

the exploitation would be worse, we would have no protection

:11:30.:11:32.

of the agency workers' directive, no protection of part-timers getting

:11:33.:11:34.

the same pay as full-timers, no protection for temporary workers,

:11:35.:11:38.

no protection on maternity leave Outers aren't just making this case

:11:39.:11:41.

because it's what they believe, but because it might be their best

:11:42.:11:46.

bet at winning the referendum. And private polling I have

:11:47.:11:50.

seen suggests, plainly, the left well off you are the more

:11:51.:11:53.

likely you are to Maybe this is an argument

:11:54.:11:55.

between the haves and have-nots. Politicians have often been

:11:56.:12:03.

squeamish over talking immigration. But in this campaign,

it might decide how we choose Laura Kuenssberg, BBC

News, Westminster. As we've heard, Iain Duncan Smith

:12:10.:12:15.

said the EU had become "a friend of the haves,

:12:16.:12:17.

rather than the have-nots". He said lower-paid, lower-skilled

:12:18.:12:21.

British workers were losing out - and insisted immigration was a major

:12:22.:12:24.

factor in the pressure Our political correspondent,

:12:25.:12:27.

Alex Forysth, is with me to assess Huw, Iain Duncan Smith used a lot

:12:28.:12:32.

of facts and figures to make his case that uncontrolled

:12:33.:12:38.

immigration from the EU will put unsustainable strain

:12:39.:12:41.

on jobs and services. Let's take a look at

:12:42.:12:45.

some of his claims. He said that for every 100 migrants

:12:46.:12:48.

employed, 23 UK workers This comes from a report

:12:49.:12:52.

by Government's Migration But there's an important caveat -

:12:53.:12:57.

when you look at that report that statistic is only referring

:12:58.:13:02.

to migrants from outside the EU. When it comes to wages,

:13:03.:13:08.

Mr Duncan Smith says they'll be pushed down if borders remain

:13:09.:13:11.

open due to a continued He cited a Bank of England report

:13:12.:13:14.

which found immigration can affect salaries,

:13:15.:13:19.

particularly in semi or unskilled jobs in the services sector

:13:20.:13:23.

but the impact is fairly small - The impact on jobs and wages has

:13:24.:13:27.

to be taken in broader context, weighing up the benefits

:13:28.:13:35.

of immigration to the economy, There is some evidence that

:13:36.:13:38.

immigration can have a negative impact on low-wage workers

:13:39.:13:44.

in the UK, but those impacts appear to be relatively small,

:13:45.:13:47.

and immigration does not seem to be a major factor driving the outcomes

:13:48.:13:50.

of low-wage people here. In the context of leaving the EU,

:13:51.:13:55.

this suggests the effect on low-wage workers as a result of immigration

:13:56.:13:57.

could actually be smaller than the broader economic effects

:13:58.:14:02.

of leaving the EU overall, whether they are positive

:14:03.:14:07.

or negative. A less controversial claim

:14:08.:14:10.

is the fact immigration does put Iain Duncan Smith says 240 houses

:14:11.:14:13.

would have to be built every day And he says in schools,

:14:14.:14:19.

the demand for pupil places as a result of immigration

:14:20.:14:26.

is equivalent to the need for 100 Those figures are in line

:14:27.:14:29.

with predicted migration flows, but those who want the UK to remain

:14:30.:14:36.

in the EU point out that the taxes paid by migrants help

:14:37.:14:39.

fund public services. EU membership does have an impact

:14:40.:14:44.

on wages, jobs and services, but whether that impact is good

:14:45.:14:47.

or bad for the UK is one of the most hotly-contested aspects

:14:48.:14:51.

of this referendum. A new survey suggests the gap

:14:52.:14:58.

between those business people wanting to remain in the EU

:14:59.:15:01.

and those who want to The British Chambers of Commerce

:15:02.:15:04.

says 54% of its members surveyed in April said they'd vote Remain,

:15:05.:15:09.

down from 60% in February's survey. 37% say they'd vote

:15:10.:15:14.

to Leave, up from 30%. Less than 10% say they don't know,

:15:15.:15:19.

or probably won't vote at all. Our economics editor, Kamal Ahmed,

:15:20.:15:24.

has been hearing both sides Two businesses from the same county

and separated by just a few miles, but when it comes to whether it

would be better to leave or remain in the EU,

their opinions couldn't Teresa Auciello is sales director

:15:43.:15:49.

in the EU so we can actually be influencing and shaping the future

:15:50.:15:55.

of Europe rather than sitting on the outside, because we will be

:15:56.:15:58.

working at the behest and having to trade at the behest of other

:15:59.:16:01.

people's regulations. Other businesses, of course,

:16:02.:16:08.

have different views. I'm on my way to another business

:16:09.:16:13.

about 15 miles away. I suppose the thought in some

:16:14.:16:15.

people's minds might be why does the opinion of business leaders

:16:16.:16:19.

matter any more than the opinion I suppose that comes down for both

:16:20.:16:22.

the Remain and Leave campaign to the fact that they believe that

:16:23.:16:29.

businesses really speak to a vital issue in this referendum campaign,

:16:30.:16:33.

that's the issue of jobs We export to every

:16:34.:16:36.

country within Europe. Guy Schanschieff is the founder

:16:37.:16:44.

of a reusable nappy company. Leaving the EU holds

:16:45.:16:47.

no fears for him. He thinks it could open

:16:48.:16:51.

up new markets. We're continually looking,

:16:52.:16:54.

as a company that is growing We certainly see the new markets

:16:55.:16:57.

that we want to go into to continue to grow in the US, in India

:16:58.:17:03.

and South America and being out of the EU will give the Government

:17:04.:17:06.

the opportunity to negotiate quicker, more efficient trade deals

:17:07.:17:09.

that will help us grow and export. What this Brexit survey

:17:10.:17:16.

of 2,000 businesses reveals is there is not one simple

:17:17.:17:18.

picture for all firms. Of those that export to the EU 62%

:17:19.:17:21.

support remaining in. For those that do not,

:17:22.:17:24.

that support falls to 43%. For large businesses,

:17:25.:17:31.

with over 250 employees, For smaller businesses,

:17:32.:17:34.

with under 50 employees, Remain campaigners insist that

:17:35.:17:41.

all reputable business polls show firm support for staying in the EU,

:17:42.:17:47.

but opinions still clearly differ for this most important voice

:17:48.:17:53.

in the referendum campaign. NASA has announced that it's

:17:54.:17:57.

discovered nearly 1,300 new planets The bodies - known as exo-planets -

:17:58.:18:04.

were found with the NASA says the discovery increases

:18:05.:18:10.

the likelihood of one day finding another planet like Earth that

:18:11.:18:16.

might support life. Our science editor,

:18:17.:18:19.

David Shukman, has the story. The search for worlds

:18:20.:18:22.

beyond our solar system has Tonight we know of far more planets

:18:23.:18:24.

has been opening up an entirely Today's announcement adds

:18:37.:18:39.

dramatically to the number of confirmed planets confirmed

:18:40.:18:44.

by the Kepler space telescope. By any standard this

:18:45.:18:48.

is a spectacular achievement Until 25 years ago the only

:18:49.:18:50.

planets we knew about were Now the Kepler telescope has just

:18:51.:18:57.

discovered 1284 planets orbiting other stars,

:18:58.:19:04.

doubling the previous total. 100 of these are thought to be

:19:05.:19:08.

roughly the size of Earth. Of those, nine are in so-called

:19:09.:19:12.

habitable zones, just the right distance from their stars for water

:19:13.:19:16.

to exist at the surface. So, they could conceivably host life

:19:17.:19:20.

and what is tantalising is that many more of these worlds are likely

:19:21.:19:24.

to be discovered. It means that the galaxies

:19:25.:19:27.

formed the planets. Kepler showed us that every star

:19:28.:19:30.

you saw in the night sky is likely But in the process of showing it,

:19:31.:19:35.

it is likely that each of those stars has several planets

:19:36.:19:41.

going around it. So, there are lots of Earths out

:19:42.:19:45.

there and there are lots of possible places that could have life

:19:46.:19:48.

like our own Earth sitting out Of course there is no proof yet that

:19:49.:19:51.

any of these worlds actually support life, but the search is intensifying

:21:33.:21:39.

in England are being sabotaged by opponents of education reforms,

:21:40.:21:43.

after a test paper was published online for the second time

:21:44.:21:46.

The Department for Education blamed the leak on what it called a "rogue

:21:47.:21:51.

Our education correspondent, Robert Pigott, has more details.

:21:52.:22:02.

Oh, well... Done. After two SATs tests in two days, there was a sense

:22:03.:22:13.

of relief at this primary school. This morning the mood was more

:22:14.:22:17.

apprehensive. Some people have been quite nervous. Some people haven't

:22:18.:22:21.

really been bothered too much. I was quite nervous, though. Quite a few

:22:22.:22:25.

people were nervous. They think it will affect their secondary school.

:22:26.:22:29.

The children, they start off and they're not that stressed, at first.

:22:30.:22:36.

Then the parents, they just say little things that build up the

:22:37.:22:40.

stress. The test might never have happened. Pearson, the company that

:22:41.:22:45.

supplies the exams, mistakenly allowed the paper onto a secure

:22:46.:22:50.

website. Then a marker leak today to a journalist. -- leaked it to a

:22:51.:22:56.

journalist. In Ipswich tonight members of the National Union of

:22:57.:23:00.

Teachers vented their frustration at the Government's rapid changes to

:23:01.:23:05.

education. This esay chaos in administering exams led to the last

:23:06.:23:08.

leak three weeks ago, when a primary school test had to be abandoned

:23:09.:23:11.

after being mistakenly posted on the Government website. Ministers insist

:23:12.:23:15.

that the latest breach was a deliberate attempt to sabotage the

:23:16.:23:20.

test, even if it didn't work. It is essential that people in positions

:23:21.:23:25.

of trust can be relied upon to act appropriately. Unfortunately, in

:23:26.:23:32.

this case, it appears that one person did not and they leaked the

:23:33.:23:36.

Key Stage 2 English grammar, punctuation and spelling test to a

:23:37.:23:40.

journalist. The Government insists that its tough new curriculum and

:23:41.:23:46.

rigorous exams used to test it are essential for raising standards.

:23:47.:23:50.

Parents have complained that the new tests leave children stressed and

:23:51.:23:53.

anxious and teachers say not only do they distort the curriculum, but the

:23:54.:23:56.

new tests were introduced in a way that raz rushed and chaotic -- that

:23:57.:24:02.

was rushed and chaotic. This year, because of the speed in which they

:24:03.:24:07.

put them in, it's been a bit of a shambles. The children aren't

:24:08.:24:12.

totally prepared because of the new curriculum. Supporters say it helps

:24:13.:24:16.

ensure all children can read and write. The basics provide the

:24:17.:24:20.

foundation for all their education. If there were shortcomings there,

:24:21.:24:23.

they need to be addressed. That's another thing that the SATs can be

:24:24.:24:28.

used for. It's a view echoed in Scotland, where similar testing for

:24:29.:24:31.

primary school children is on the way back.

:24:32.:24:34.

Over the past two years, we've been following the story

:24:35.:24:37.

of Josh Wills from Cornwall, who's 15 and has learning

:24:38.:24:39.

As part of his treatment, he was sent to a specialist

:24:40.:24:44.

hospital in Birmingham, more than 250 miles away from home.

:24:45.:24:47.

But after a long campaign by his family, Josh has returned

:24:48.:24:49.

to Cornwall to a new home and a new life, as our social

:24:50.:24:52.

affairs correspondent, Alison Holt, reports.

:24:53.:24:57.

These are the sorts of precious moments that Josh Wills' family

:24:58.:25:00.

This is the first time his father has been able to take him for a walk

:25:01.:25:08.

with his step-mother, half-brother and half-sister.

:25:09.:25:11.

For three years, I'd had three words on my mind and that was -

:25:12.:25:14.

Josh has learning disabilities and autism.

:25:15.:25:19.

He wears a head guard and his arms are tucked into his top

:25:20.:25:22.

A lack of suitable care in Cornwall meant he was living

:25:23.:25:28.

hundreds of miles away in a Birmingham hospital.

:25:29.:25:31.

Finally, last November, he came home.

:25:32.:25:34.

It was such a positive day in this one story that we'd worked

:25:35.:25:37.

so hard with so many people to bring forward.

:25:38.:25:42.

Have you had a lovely day, tell everyone.

:25:43.:26:02.

He finally made the long journey home, after a campaign

:26:03.:26:07.

in which nearly 250,000 people signed a petition demanding the care

:26:08.:26:10.

It's now like our life's begun again really.

:26:11.:26:15.

For Josh's mother Sarah and her family, it's a huge relief

:26:16.:26:21.

For all of us, especially Josh, it wasn't a life.

:26:22.:26:26.

He was, you know, medicated and I was just broken hearted.

:26:27.:26:33.

The only way I survived was switching off

:26:34.:26:36.

Josh's behaviour will always be challenging.

:26:37.:26:43.

But now, rather than him being in an institution,

:26:44.:26:46.

the authorities have built care around him, allowing family,

:26:47.:26:50.

like his stepfather, to play a vital role.

:26:51.:26:53.

His new home is designed to allow him to live

:26:54.:26:57.

as full a life as possible, with the help of

:26:58.:27:01.

It costs thousands of pounds a week, but so does a bed in

:27:02.:27:08.

Robin Gunson heads the team providing care for Josh and others.

:27:09.:27:13.

It should be a baseline expectation that everybody has,

:27:14.:27:16.

a person-centred approach to enable them to be a citizen of society.

:27:17.:27:20.

It's not the person that needs fixing generally,

:27:21.:27:23.

it's the system and support around someone in the first place.

:27:24.:27:32.

The Government has said it wants to see the sort of care that Josh

:27:33.:27:36.

now gets available to many more people with challenging

:27:37.:27:39.

behaviour who currently live in hospitals in England.

:27:40.:27:43.

But on the ground, change has been slow to happen.

:27:44.:27:46.

The most recent figures show there are still 165 children

:27:47.:27:49.

with learning disabilities and autism in hospital assessment

:27:50.:27:52.

and treatment units, many a long way from home.

:27:53.:27:56.

Josh's family say the care he is getting now is

:27:57.:27:59.

That is the main thing, seeing him happy, seeing him

:28:00.:28:11.

independent, just seeing him have his little spark back.

:28:12.:28:14.

West Ham's last ever mark at Upton Park, home to the club for over a

:28:15.:28:29.

century, had to be delayed this evening because of violence outside

:28:30.:28:32.

the ground. The bus carrying players from the visiting team, Manchester

:28:33.:28:36.

United, was pelted with objects as it arrived.

:28:37.:28:41.

Our correspondent, Joe Wilson, is there.

:28:42.:28:44.

Thousands had lined the streets to say goodbye to their ground, Upton

:28:45.:28:51.

Park. But in the middle of that the Manchester United bus. Close to the

:28:52.:28:56.

scheduled kickoff time the coach was targeted directly. Bottles were

:28:57.:28:59.

thrown. Inside the Manchester United players were clearly moving away

:29:00.:29:04.

from the windows. And filming the occasion. It's not what the night

:29:05.:29:11.

was supposed to be about. # We're forever blowing bubbles... #

:29:12.:29:15.

Tradition is what West Ham wanted to mark. This ground, their world,

:29:16.:29:22.

their song. This last match before the club moves grounds mattered for

:29:23.:29:26.

more than just nostalgia. Both West Ham and Manchester United had

:29:27.:29:29.

European qualification issues at stake. Here's what the home crowd

:29:30.:29:38.

had wanted. Manchester United chasing Manchester City for a

:29:39.:29:41.

Champions League place responded, five minutes gone in the second half

:29:42.:29:46.

and the ball to Martial. That was 1-1. Martial wasn't finished.

:29:47.:29:51.

Finding a gap which the goalkeeper may well have covered. Bubbles

:29:52.:29:57.

bursting around the old ground. Just as well then that West Ham equalised

:29:58.:30:03.

almost immediately. 80 minutes on the clock, and keep

:30:04.:30:10.

track, the ball passed De Gea and West Ham led again.

:30:11.:30:17.

There's a raucous feel around Upton Park right now. 3-2 was the final

:30:18.:30:23.

score. The final whistle has only just blown. Some supporters, at

:30:24.:30:28.

least, have left the ground. That result puts more pressure on

:30:29.:30:31.

Manchester United's manager, Louis Van Gaal. That kind offent-to-end

:30:32.:30:38.

football -- kind of end to end football is part of the great

:30:39.:30:41.

tradition of Upton Park. What we saw before the game is an unpresidentant

:30:42.:30:48.

reminder as well of -- unpresidentant reminder of more

:30:49.:30:52.

troubled times. The next time we see them will be at the Olympic Stadium.

:30:53.:30:56.

West Ham believe it's only they who can bring life to that arena.

:30:57.:30:59.

Joe thanks very much. Here on BBC One, it's time

:31:00.:31:12.

for the news where you are.
