Pope Francis declares two of his predecessors saints in an historic | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
ceremony at the Vatican. The moment was watched by hundreds | :00:07. | :00:18. | |
of thousands of people in St Peter's Square. Details emerge about the | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
five military personnel killed in the Lynx helicopter crash in | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
Afghanistan. And South Korea's Prime Minister | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
resigns over the sinking of the passenger ferry, which claimed | :00:31. | :00:32. | |
hundreds of lives. Good afternoon. Two of the most | :00:33. | :00:55. | |
influential popes of the 20th century have been made saints at a | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
ceremony in the Vatican. In front of hundreds of thousands of people in | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
St Peter's Square, John XXIII and John Paul II were canonised by the | :01:05. | :01:11. | |
current Pope Francis. Our Religious Affairs Correspondent Robert Pigott | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
reports from the Vatican. This report contains some flash | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
photography. It was joyful, it was solemn, it was | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
spectacular, it was humble. The moment when the church declared that | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
two of its own had entered heaven are saints. It took place in the | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
presence of orderly relics of the two men. A sliver of skin from the | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
body of John XXIII, a vial of blood from John Paul II. Never before have | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
two living Pope 's overseen the making of saints. In Latin, Pope | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
Francis recited the formula by which mortal men were recognised as | :01:52. | :01:52. | |
immortal saints. We declare and define blasted John | :01:53. | :02:05. | |
XXIII and John Paul II to be saints and we enrolled them among the | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
Saints, decreeing that they are to be venerated as such by the whole | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
church. Almost 1 million came to witness this unprecedented event, | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
packing St Peter's Square, the broad boulevard before it and the banks of | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
the River Tiber beyond. Many were from Poland, a renewed upwelling of | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
pride and affection for Pope John Paul II. The canonisation, in just | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
nine years after his death, is the quickest ever. Some who questioned | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
his handling of sex abuse say it happened too soon. Many others, | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
however, say that he, like Pope John, lived a holy life. John Paul | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
travelled the world as the church's charismatic Evangelist, giving | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
Catholics renewed confidence. John XXIII in the greater the second | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
Vatican Council in the 1960s that brought far-reaching reform to the | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
church. Veteran churchmen say, together, they helped shape | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
Catholicism as it is today. Only five years, but he conquered the | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
world. Pope John Paul, to me, came over as, how shall I put it, a free | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
man. Here I am, with my background, a Polish priest, Bishop, now Pope | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
and this is what I stand for. It was very powerful. It was Pope Francis | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
himself who decided to balance the canonisation of the traditionalist, | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
John Paul, with the reforming Pope John. Both he is saying our models | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
for the papacy and a United Church. In the last hour, more details have | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
emerged about the five British military personnel killed yesterday | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
when their Lynx helicopter crashed in Afghanistan. Three were from the | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Army Corps, one was an RAF serviceman and another a reservist | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
with the Army Intelligence Corps. All those from the Joint Helicopter | :03:55. | :04:02. | |
Command, in particular those stationed here at RAF Odiham, as | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
well as those in wider Defence, will be deeply saddened by this dreadful | :04:07. | :04:15. | |
news. Our heartfelt condolences go out to the families at this most | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
difficult time. Our Defence Correspondent Caroline | :04:18. | :04:26. | |
Wyatt is at the Ministry of Defence. What more do we know? Well, tributes | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
have come in from across Defence. We know that at the crash site that has | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
now been cordoned off, investigators are looking very closely at what | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
happened. The rest of the Lynx fleet, we hear, will probably not be | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
grounded as a result of this crash. We have had political tributes paid | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
as well. David Cameron said, my heart goes out to the friends and | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
family of those killed in this tragedy. This latest incident brings | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
home to us once again how our armed forces continue to put their lives | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
on the line to help the people of Afghanistan. A simple tribute from | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
Ed Miliband, saying that people from across the UK was the saddened by | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
the news. He said it was a tragic and poignant reminder of the | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
sacrifices made by our Armed Forces when serving the country with | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
bravery and distinction. South Korea's President has accepted | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
the resignation of the Prime Minister, Chung Hong-won, over the | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
government's handling of the sinking of the passenger ferry. The Prime | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
Minister had earlier apologised for the disaster. More than 300 people | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
are believed to be dead or missing. Lucy Williamson's report from Seoul | :05:37. | :05:37. | |
contains flash photography. For almost two weeks, these images | :05:38. | :05:45. | |
have haunted the nation. The slow and desperate search - first for | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
survivors, then for bodies. It's still not over. And now South | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
Korea's Prime Minister is paying with his job. | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
TRANSLATION: I was planning to take responsibility and resign earlier. | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
But I thought responding to the accident was the most urgent | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
priority. But now I feel I am a burden. I have decided to resign. | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
Families of those on board are angry with the government. This was their | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
response when the Prime Minister visited them last week. The cries of | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
those families, he said today, still keep me awake at night. Some are | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
still there, waiting for the bodies of their children. More than 100 | :06:31. | :06:38. | |
passengers still haven't been found. Here in the capital, as mourners pay | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
their condolences, there is criticism of the resignation. The | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
main opposition party called it a cowardly ovation of responsibility | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
and called on the President herself to apologise. This is now a country | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
tortured by what might have been. Facing the truth that prosperity and | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
growth offer no protection from broken rules or lack of duty, and | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
mourning the ship full of children that proved it. | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
The law is to be changed to make it illegal to download information | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
about how to groom children for abuse. The Prime Minister has said | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
the new offence will close a legal loophole which currently allows | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
paedophiles to write and distribute such material. | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
The police officer at the centre of the so-called plebgate dispute, | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
involving the former government Chief Whip Andrew Mitchell, is | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
seeking libel damages from him of up to ?200,000. PC Toby Rowland is | :07:31. | :07:37. | |
suing Mr Mitchell for suggesting he wasn't telling the truth about the | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
row at the gates of Downing Street. Mr Mitchell has denied allegations | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
that he called police officers plebs. | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
The former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, has said Britain is | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
now a "post-Christian" country. In a newspaper interview today, Lord | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
Williams says Britain is no longer a nation of believers. His comments | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
come after David Cameron urged Christians to be more evangelical | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
about their beliefs. Britain's banks and insurance | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
companies are warning that quitting the EU would pose very significant | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
risks to the UK. CityUK, which represents all major banks based | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
here, commissioned a report to examine the UK's relationship with | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
the EU from a financial perspective. It found that leaving the EU could | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
harm investment in Britain and raise unemployment and prices. Our | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
Business correspondent Joe Lynam explains. | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
London is home to some of the largest banks, insurance companies | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
and professional advisers in the world. Collectively, they account | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
for almost 15% of the UK economy. So their opinion always gets a hearing | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
in the corridors of power. This time, the city is very worried about | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
Britain quitting the EU. In examining what Britain's economy | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
might look like outside the EU, City UK says that UK banks may not be | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
able to get full access to Europe's single market. Future financial | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
rules could adversely affect British banks and insurance companies. And a | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
British exit, known as Brexit, would lead to higher prices, higher | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
unemployment and lower growth. Time and again, what we found was that | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
only by membership do we get voting rights, do we have the right to veto | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
unpopular measures that are not in our national interests. But, more | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
importantly, membership of the European Union means that our | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
recovery will continue. Exiting the EU means exiting 60% of the world's | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
trade deals. It puts our economy at long-term risk. CityUK tried to | :09:30. | :09:38. | |
scare us in the 1990s, saying we should join the Euro because the | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
city will fail and all the business will go to Frankfurt. It's trying to | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
scaremonger again If Britain does vote to leave, it won't be the end | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
of the world. The city is a global marketplace and it will still | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
succeed, whatever happens. With European Parliament elections taking | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
place next month, you can expect a lot more debate, discussion and | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
polarising opinion on the issue of Britain's relationship with the | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
European Union. And that's still three years before a possible in-out | :10:01. | :10:01. | |
referendum in 2017. You can see more on all of today's | :10:02. | :10:12. | |
stories on the BBC News Channel. Our next bulletin on BBC One is at 6:35 | :10:13. | :10:14. | |
this evening. Goodbye. There are some significant changes | :10:15. | :10:40. | |
on the way later this week will stop high pressure will be in charge. It | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
will stay very unsettled at the moment with heavy showers in the | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
south. At the end of the week, it will turn drier and colder. This is | :10:51. | :10:57. | |
the satellite picture. There is an area of low pressure in the South | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
producing some showers. There is some sunshine and drier weather in | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
the North. We might pick up one or two showers in Northern Ireland. | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
Showers could increase in the West of Scotland. More eastern areas | :11:14. | :11:21. | |
could see a lot more low pressure. It will be increasingly wet. On the | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
other side of the Pennines, it will be drier and brighter. It should be | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
drier and brighter across East Anglia. Elsewhere we are into the | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
showers. Some of the showers will be heavy, possibly with hail and under. | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
They will push their way northwards into the Midlands and possibly | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
Wales. A lot of showers around. A lot of those will decay overnight. | :11:49. | :11:54. | |
Patchy rain and drizzle will sink further south. Not much rain in the | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
north. There will be a lot of low cloud by the end of the night. The | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
weather pattern will not change much over the next few days. This low | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
pressure is providing a focus for the showers. The weather front is | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
weak in the North, producing rain but more in the way of cloud. Away | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
from here, it may brighten up to the south. There will be some fierce | :12:24. | :12:32. | |
storms. There could be big totals of rain across the Midlands, the South | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
and across East Anglia. The warmth will be in the North West of | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
Scotland. On Tuesday, a lot of low cloud will keep it chilly in | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
Scotland and the North of England. Again the threat of some heavy, slow | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
moving showers. Still some showery rain across southern parts of | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
England. We will pick up some moisture from across the Atlantic. | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
There will be rain in the West of Scotland. More likely in Northern | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
Ireland overnight. Quite a poor day. That is where we have the | :13:11. | :13:17. | |
highest temperatures. But the North, it is turning colder and drier. In | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
the north-east, significantly brighter. Any remaining warm air | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
will be in the south. It will push across the whole of the country on | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
Friday. Some showers in the east, which will be wintry on the high | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
ground. There will be a brisk north to north-easterly wind which will | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
make it feel cold everywhere. We end the week with high-pressure sitting | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
right over the UK. Not necessarily entirely good news. With clear | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
skies, a widespread frost. | :13:56. | :13:58. |
