at Six. On BBC One, we now join the BBC's news teams where you are. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Tonight on BBC London News: Scandal heaped upon scandal at Scotland | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
Yard. The Mayor says it's vital the truth | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
comes out. But this man, who's been alleging corruption at the force for | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
years, says he has no faith he'll ever learn the truth about his | :00:20. | :00:30. | |
brother's murder. I have tried to place my confidence in the police, | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
the Home Office, before, many, many times. I really don't know. | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
We'll hear from the Police Commissioner as he tries to reassure | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
London he's the man to lead the force out of the crisis. | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
Also tonight: A worker dies on the Crossrail project, killed by a lump | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
of concrete. Later, I will be reporting on Smart | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
traffic lights and how they are being used to improve pedestrian | :01:04. | :01:10. | |
safety. Hello to all the pupils. How Harry made the day for a group | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
of school children. It is a once`in`a`lifetime event that I | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
could go see. If I could see more, I would. | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
Good evening. The Stephen Lawrence case continues | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
to expose failures within the Metropolitan Police. Following | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
yesterday's devastating report which found that a police spy had been | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
working within the Lawrence camp, the Mayor has said it is vital that | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
the truth should come out, and that any corrupt or criminal police | :01:43. | :01:44. | |
behaviour should be prosecuted with the full force of the law. Today, | :01:45. | :01:55. | |
the head of The Met's counter`terror unit was moved from his post. Karl | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
Mercer is at Scotland Yard tonight. Karl, how did this come about? A | :02:02. | :02:13. | |
deeply damaging blow in a deeply damaging week for the Metropolitan | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
Police. This afternoon, Commander Richard Walton, head of the | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
counter`terrorism command, and one of Scotland Yard's senior and most | :02:21. | :02:29. | |
trusted officers had been moved to a non`operational role and referred to | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
the Independent Police Complaints Commission. We learned yesterday | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
that in 1998 he had been an active `` Acting Detective is to his role | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
had been to help write the submissions for the Macpherson | :02:42. | :02:43. | |
review into the Stephen Lawrence murder. He met a man, an undercover | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
police officer, known as the spying in the Lawrence family camp. It was | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
a meeting described yesterday as completely improper and it raises | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
questions about his conduct back then, which has led to him being | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
moved to the nonoperational role, and the referral to the IPCC. We | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
have a statement from him. He said, I welcome any scrutiny of my role in | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
these events over more than 16 years ago, including the forthcoming | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
public enquiry. I understand we have heard from the mayor. Yes, strong | :03:19. | :03:25. | |
words from Boris Johnson, describing yesterday's report from Mark Ellison | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
QC has deeply disturbing. He talked of very troubling allegations when | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
it came to the role of undercover police and said it was vital that | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
the truth comes out. Importantly, his statement went on to say that he | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
believed suburban Hogan`Howe, the chief political `` Sir Bernard | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
Hogan`Howe was the right man to lead the force into the future. | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
Well, the brother of a man who's been alleging corruption at the Met | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
for decades has told BBC London he has no faith in the force to get to | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
the truth. Alistair Morgan's brother Daniel was found dead with an axe in | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
his head in a car park in south east London in 1987. Yesterday, the Home | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
Secretary said there were links between his death and an allegedly | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
corrupt Metropolitan Police detective. Chris Rogers reports. | :04:09. | :04:21. | |
The Ellison Review port reveals two police scandals, spying and | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
corruption, both linked to police investigations into the murder of | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
Stephen Lawrence. But as Theresa May and announced another enquiry into | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
possible miscarriages of justice, she also highlighted another case. | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
Ellison also refers to possible links between an allegedly corrupt | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
officer involved in the Stephen Lawrence case, and the investigation | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
into the murder of Daniel Morgan. What are the possible links between | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
an allegedly corrupt police officer and the investigation into the | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
murder of Daniel Morgan? The 37`year`old from Wales was a private | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
investigator. In 1987, his family claim he was on the verge of | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
exposing police corruption. He was found with an axe in his head in a | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
car parked at a pub in south`east London. His murder has never been | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
solved. An independent judge led panel of experts is examining claims | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
that police corruption prevented a conviction despite five | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
investigations. Ahead of the findings, the Ellison Review port | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
highlights that officers under suspicion of corruption, including | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
Detective Sergeant John Davidson, were connected to the Morgan murder | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
investigation. I believe there was police involvement in the cover`up | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
of my brother's murder. He was very concerned about police corruption | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
and was talking to people about it. For nearly three decades, Daniel | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
Morgan's family have campaign for whoever filled him to be brought to | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
justice. He was murdered six years before Stephen Lawrence, a murder | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
that has exposed racism, spying and corruption in the force. The Met | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
have also admitted that they failed to face up to the corruption in my | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
brother's murder. And if this had been dealt with properly at the | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
time, as it deserved to be, then there might have been a completely | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
different outcome in the earlier Lawrence enquiries. The Home | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
Secretary says she believes the judge led panel into Daniel | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
Morgan's murder may uncover more evidence of corruption. Time and | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
time again I have tried to place my confidence in the police. It is | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
always another detail that you find out and you think, oh, Jesus, you | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
know. If you ask if I have any confidence in the police, I don't. | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
The Met police say they are devastated by the findings of the | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
Ellison report. Now, they must rebuild public trust, an | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
overwhelming task as more revelations are likely to emerge. | :06:59. | :07:00. | |
The Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Sir Bernard | :07:01. | :07:02. | |
Hogan`Howe, has been speaking about the problems he's now facing with | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
the BBC's Home Editor, Mark Easton. He began by asking the Commissioner | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
how the public can trust the police after the findings of the Ellison | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
Review. Can you guarantee that a corrupt | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
police officer did not interfere with the investigation into Stephen | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
Lawrence? I am afraid I can't, which is what Mark Ellison's report says | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
he wants more information about. I'm sure that any investigation will be | :07:30. | :07:38. | |
carried out. So it is possible that a corrupt police officer tainted the | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
Stephen Lawrence investigation? I can only refer back to Mark | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
Ellison's work, and he indicates that he is not convinced that | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
investigation has been fully explored. I am sure that will | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
happen. This has been referred to the director`general of the National | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
Crime Agency to decide how best this can be investigated in future. We | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
may be seeing hundreds of convictions quashed as a result of | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
the activities of undercover police officers. How much does that trouble | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
you? It is very worrying. I have said I think this is a very serious | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
issue. The Home Secretary is concerned, as is Parliament, that we | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
have to look back into at least 25 cases to see whether there has been | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
a miscarriage of justice. It is a serious issue. We have to rely on | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
the criminal justice system to be honest and open. Richard Walton, we | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
hear, has been moved. Can you explain that? First of all, there | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
are some parts of that report about this officer that caused concerns. | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
And he is in a very significant position in terms of our | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
counterterrorist response. We think it is the best thing to do at the | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
moment. A decision has been made within the disciplinary process to | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
move him to another role. I think that is the best thing to do. We | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
have to be fair. We know we have a report. There is an enquiry to | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
follow. At the end of that, a decision will be made about whether | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
or not this officer is responsible for anything. Why is it that no | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
police officer has been held accountable for any part of the | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
Stephen Lawrence scandal? I can't really answer that. As I tried to | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
say from the beginning, I can't account for the past, I can't reset | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
the clock and change history. I can do a lot about now and you have | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
challenged me about what we can do to make sure we search for | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
information. I can reset the clock for the future. I want to give | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
people confidence we are improving the Met. I don't think we should dam | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
the present entirely by the past. Stay with us tonight, as there's a | :09:45. | :09:53. | |
lot more to come. The council call it regeneration but | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
some businesses call it devastation. I will be finding out about the row | :09:57. | :10:03. | |
over rebuilding Tottenham. A construction worker on the ?15 | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
billion Crossrail project has died after a piece of concrete fell | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
on`him. The 43`year`old was spraying concrete in a tunnel in Holborn when | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
he was killed in the early hours of this morning. It's the project's | :10:17. | :10:26. | |
first fatality. Here's Marc Ashdown. It might be Europe's largest | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
infrastructure project at the unwritten motto at Crossrail is that | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
every worker has the right to go home safely at the end of their | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
shift. Today, that failed. A 43`year old contractor was working about ten | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
metres underground here, using spray concrete, which they used to seal | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
the tunnels. He suffered a head injury and although ambulance, | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
police and fire crews were called, he died at the scene. One worker | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
leaving the site this morning described it as like a death in the | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
family. A piece of concrete from the ceiling fell and hit him. Concrete | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
spraying has been suspended. Crossrail has a good safety record. | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
This is the first death. But unions say standards must be better | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
monitored. Fatalities in London have doubled from four up to eight | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
eighths two year period and this has to be addressed. The best way of | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
addressing it is with trade union involvement in health and save the | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
on every construction site, from when the shovel goes into the job | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
finishing. The project was trying to build on the success of the London | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
Olympics, the first Games with no fatalities during construction. | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
Standards in the capital are well respected in the industry and this | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
death will have an impact. You will see the legacy for decades, because | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
Crossrail is setting the standards for infrastructure in the UK and in | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
Europe as well. If it is major infrastructure projects, there will | :11:56. | :12:04. | |
be lessons learned. For now, police and the Health and Safety at Work | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
Act to remain on site as a private ambulance arrived to remove the | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
body. A dark day of `` a dark day for Crossrail and the colleagues. | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
New homes. New shops. New jobs. And a new football stadium. That's the | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
vision for the regeneration of Tottenham after the riots. But | :12:21. | :12:22. | |
whilst some people agree that the area will be given a new lease of | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
life, there are others who say the heart of Tottenham is being ripped | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
out of the community. Tarah Welsh is in the area now. | :12:30. | :12:42. | |
Tottenham is already changing. A new stadium is already being built. | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
Haringey Council says it wants to do more. It wants to make it a better | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
place for people to live. No one is arguing with that but what is in | :12:51. | :12:58. | |
dispute is how it is done. Alex has been serving chicken and chips to | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
the people of Tottenham for over 30 is but the local council want to | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
modernise the area, and that could been flattening his shop and others. | :13:06. | :13:13. | |
We have seen riots and the recession and we survived. So why do we want | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
someone to come and kick us out for no reason? Just leave us alone to | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
trade where we have been trading. We earned the right to be part of this | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
regeneration. The way the council has consulted has left a bitter | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
taste in some people's mouths. This booklet shows a vision of what the | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
area could look like but shopkeepers say they have been airbrushed out | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
before a decision has even been made. This is a set of | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
recommendations for the council to look at this and think about whether | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
we agree and want to impairment some of this. The vision is to deliver | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
what the residents want, better homes and schools, making Tottenham | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
a stronger place to live. This is the area behind the shops, a large | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
housing estate. The council want to pull it down and build new homes but | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
that would mean getting rid of the shops, and an industrial estate down | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
the road from here. Brian is just one of over 20 businesses on this | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
estate. His family have been here since the war. There are 200 people | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
on the estate, without the other little bits attached. It is over 200 | :14:19. | :14:24. | |
jobs they will lose. They will put 12,000 people in here, but where | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
will they work? There is nothing in Tottenham. The council say the | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
majority of the residents want regeneration but they accept that | :14:34. | :14:35. | |
people do not want to lose local shops. We need the shops. Why are | :14:36. | :14:44. | |
they going to knock them down? Houses are more important. Chicken | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
is chicken. They want to knock down the chicken shop, you know. That | :14:49. | :14:55. | |
says it all. There is an appetite for change but not at the cost of | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
community spirit. There really is a good community spirit here. I was in | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
the library earlier and there were lots of families and children. And a | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
gentleman came up to me and said, what we must do is to make these | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
decisions together, because what we decide now affects these children | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
until they are old people. Of course, that decision will have to | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
be made by the Council, and it won't be until the summer. For years | :15:21. | :15:32. | |
passengers have seen the former Eurostar platforms standing empty. | :15:33. | :15:39. | |
From May, they will be back in use. Today trains departed on a | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
demonstration run. 100 extra carriages will be introduced over | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
the next year allowing thousands of extra passengers to travel at peak | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
times. Every platform at Waterloo has to be used to 100% at rush | :15:53. | :15:59. | |
hour. If anything goes wrong, it has a bigger impact on passengers. By | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
having a spare platform and a little bit more capacity from the old | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
Eurostar legacy, it allows us to provide more resilience. | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
In a world first, London's streets are to get what's called intelligent | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
pedestrian crossings. They can detect how many people are waiting | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
to cross a road and then change the lights accordingly. It means | :16:21. | :16:22. | |
pedestrians are prioritised. If the pilot is successful then it could be | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
adapted to prioritise cyclists too. Here's our transport correspondent, | :16:26. | :16:33. | |
Tom Edwards. They are usually busy and crowded. | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
Sometimes queueing means it can be a rush to get across the capital's | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
roads safely. Do you feel rushed? A little bit. They did not give you | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
enough time? Could be a little bit longer. I do not access it until it | :16:51. | :16:59. | |
says go across. We are starting to build up a count of the number of | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
people... This is the latest idea from DFL. If there is a crowd, Smart | :17:04. | :17:10. | |
traffic lights can lengthen the crossing time. As we understand more | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
about the pedestrians, we can balance it with the traffic. You | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
will find a much more evenly split between moving the traffic | :17:21. | :17:22. | |
efficiently and getting the people across the road. A new robot... | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
Traffic lights have come a long way. In the 1930 three Matt, this is what | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
greeted pedestrians. Now they use cameras `` in the 1930s. This is a | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
world first and what happens in London is often copied right around | :17:44. | :17:49. | |
the world. Eventually the system will also be able to keep lights | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
green fur motorists if the pedestrian pushes the button and | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
walks away. Will it mean longer waits for drivers? Potentially. That | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
would be in a scenario where it is a fair outcome. If you have 100 people | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
waiting to cross the road and two people in cars, it would not be fair | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
for the 100 people to be held up. The trial starts in the summer, all | :18:15. | :18:21. | |
part of using technology to try and get more capacity out of the | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
capital's roads. Still to come before 7pm: a | :18:25. | :18:30. | |
star`studded thank you for London's young volunteers. | :18:31. | :18:43. | |
Time for sport this Friday evening with Sara Orchard. Netball isn't a | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
sport we here enough about, so we've got that with some rugby too. | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
I do indeed, Asad. But first, it's football and it's FA Cup quarter | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
finals weekend. We've got two London clubs still in the mix. Arsenal take | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
on Everton at the Emirates, whilst Championship`side Charlton play | :18:59. | :19:00. | |
Sheffield United. And as Warren Nettleford reports, both games could | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
have a huge influence on the London clubs' seasons. | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
This weekend to teams are one game away from an FA Cup semifinal | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
parents at Wembley. Arsenal have not tasted Trophy success in nine years | :19:15. | :19:21. | |
`` semifinal appearance. Charlton have had to be more patient. In | :19:22. | :19:31. | |
1947, Charlton won the FA Cup. As it is the only win in their history, | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
the success still inspires the current players. This club has been | :19:36. | :19:43. | |
through the metal. Coming down through the Premier League. We are | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
on our way back now. It would be a reward to all of the fans for the | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
loyalty. We still get a lot of people through the gate. In no way | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
are Sheffield United, the league one team have already beaten Aston Villa | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
so the game will not be easy. It will be hard for the fans too. They | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
will have to travel to Sheffield. I do not know what the thought | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
processes behind the kick`off times. I know they want to show it live. | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
Our fans will get there. Arsenal will face Everton, Arsene Wenger | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
described them as the best they had faced at the Emirates this season. | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
We had a disappointing result at Stoke City. It is very important for | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
us to come back strong. The FA Cup is our absolute priority just | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
because it is our next game. Charlton may have waited 67 years | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
compared to Arsenal's nine years for a major trophy, but both clubs are | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
focused on winning. Good luck to Arsenal and Charlton | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
and any fans who are struggling to get to the match, there's full | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
commentary of Charlton away to Sheffield United this Sunday on BBC | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
London digital radio. Kick off is at midday. QPR Chairman Tony Fernandes | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
has said that he remains committed to the club despite announcing | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
record losses. QPR lost ?65 million last season and their debts doubled | :21:12. | :21:14. | |
when they were relegated from the Premier League. They could now face | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
fines totalling tens of millions of pounds due to financial fair play | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
rules. Charges have been dropped against | :21:23. | :21:24. | |
three Tottenham fans who faced prosecution for chanting the Y word | :21:25. | :21:30. | |
at games last autumn. The police have previously warned fans not to | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
use the word. But the Crown Prosecution Service said the word | :21:36. | :21:37. | |
could not legally be counted as threatening, abusive or insulting in | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
the circumstances and there was not a realistic prospect of conviction. | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
Records will be broken in London tomorrow night when Netball Super | :21:47. | :21:48. | |
League sides Surrey Storm and Hertfordshire Mavericks meet at the | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
Copper Box on the Olympic Park. The game is still yet to sell out, but | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
so far 3,000 tickets have been sold for the match. That number doubles | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
the current record for attendance at a domestic netball game in the UK. | :22:00. | :22:08. | |
The sport has been growing over the years. We have made sure we give | :22:09. | :22:15. | |
people the experience. This game is going to be amazing. I think it is | :22:16. | :22:21. | |
taking a while but we have really pushed for on and off the court. It | :22:22. | :22:31. | |
should be a great match. For anyone lucky enough to go to Twickenham on | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
Sunday, that should be a great match as well. | :22:36. | :22:43. | |
As far as school trips go, this wasn't a bad one for thousands of | :22:44. | :22:46. | |
London children today. They'd been invited to Wembley Arena for a | :22:47. | :22:48. | |
concert featuring Ellie Goulding and Dizzee Rascal, with other guests | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
including a former US Vice`President and Virgin boss Sir Richard Branson. | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
Emilia Papadopodous explains what it was all about. This report contains | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
some flashing images. It is described as the most exciting | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
classroom in the world. They get to watch pop stars perform... I | :23:04. | :23:11. | |
apologise for those of you accept expecting Harry Stiles... And hear | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
from some of the most influential people on the planet. 12,000 | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
children got to experience Wembley Arena. This is the first day to be | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
some Murray held outside of North America. It is a very popular event | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
`` this is the first day of its kind to be held outside of North America. | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
Everyone here has earned a ticket by doing something to help the local | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
community. These students were awarded with tickets because of | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
their work full could orient schoolchildren. It has been really | :23:49. | :23:58. | |
cool `` their work for Ecuadorian schoolchildren. It is a | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
once`in`a`lifetime event. If I could see more, I would. From this London | :24:05. | :24:11. | |
dance group to the former US vice president, Al Gore, there was no | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
shortage of inspiration. One left and inspiration on everyone. We | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
should respect each other. 16`year`old Marlies five who was | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
shot in head by the Taliban a year and a half ago. To be able to speak | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
so eloquently and tried to rally the world around women's writes, what an | :24:35. | :24:42. | |
inspiration. The organisers hope it can be an annual event. For the | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
pupils, it does not get much better as far as school days go. | :24:46. | :24:52. | |
That is what I call a school trip! The weather for tonight? | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
What a beautiful day today again. The warmest day of the year so far. | :24:58. | :25:07. | |
We beat yesterday. 17 degrees. Through the weekend, it continues | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
drive. It will be warm for the time of year. `` it continues drive. | :25:12. | :25:18. | |
Sunday afternoons. Sunday should be sunny right the way through the day. | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
Tomorrow starts with cloud. We started with cloud this morning. | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
Tonight, the weather front will pivot and coming from the south. It | :25:27. | :25:34. | |
is dry and clear at the moment and it will stay dry. But we have cloud | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
invading to the Southern counties and pushing across London through | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
the night. The temperatures will not be that cold after a fairly chilly | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
start. It is a cloudy start to the weekend but dry. The cloud will pull | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
off towards the north and the sun will come out. By lunchtime, all of | :25:54. | :26:00. | |
us have plenty of sunshine. These temperatures may be a little bit | :26:01. | :26:03. | |
conservative. Tomorrow night will be chilly. The skies. But not too cold. | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
Not frost. Maybe a little bit of a chilly feel first thing Sunday | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
morning. We will keep the sunshine through the day. Should be lovely if | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
you are off to Twickenham to see the rugby. I have not put a temperature | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
on here because we will be watching it with all of the sunshine to see | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
exactly what happens. We have the southerly flow of air and it is nice | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
and warm and feeling like spring. Into the start of the new working | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
week, we keep with the high pressure. There is a? About how much | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
sunshine there will be around. `` there is eight question about how | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
much sunshine will be around. By Sunday, we could see 17, maybe 18 | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
degrees. Fantastic. I think we deserve it. | :26:52. | :26:57. | |
To my's main headlines: The head of the Metropolitan Police has admitted | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
a report revealing officers fired on the family of Stephen Lawrence is | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
devastating for the force. A public inquiry has been ordered into the | :27:09. | :27:11. | |
work of undercover police officers. The head of counterterrorism at the | :27:12. | :27:17. | |
Met Police has been moved from his post following publication of the | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
Ellison Review ought into the original Stephen Lawrence murder | :27:22. | :27:23. | |
investigation. In Moscow, the head of the upper | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
house of the Russian parliament has said it will support Crimea in its | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
bid to become part of Russia if the people of the region vote in favour. | :27:33. | :27:37. | |
That is it for now. I will be back later during the 10pm news. And a | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
half of everyone on the team, have a very good evening. | :27:43. | :27:45. |
