for Monday. And Scotland will be driest and brightest. Thank you Now | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
we join our Tonight on BBC London, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
as the hunt for James Foley's killer continues here in Britain, we look | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
at the threat posed by extrdmists It is very difficult to esthmate the | :00:10. | :00:24. | |
threat. It is there. Hopefully it is manageable. | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
With claims that efforts to tackle radicalisation here aren't working, | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
we ask what more the government can do? | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
Also tonight, Metropolitan police officers who are | :00:34. | :00:34. | |
alleged to have had sexual relationships whilst undercover | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
And how wealth doesn't buy xou happiness ` | :00:38. | :00:53. | |
the report claiming Londoners are some of the most miserable hn | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
the country Good evening welcome to the BBC London early evening news. | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
More now on the story that has appalled the | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
world, the beheading of American journalist James Foley, belheved to | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
be at the hands of a Briton fighting for the group, Islamic Statd. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Officials here are examining the possibility that his killer | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
Yesterday the Metropolitan Police Commisshoner, | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
Sir Bernard Hogan Howe, confirmed that there are between four to 00 | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
British citizens fighting in Syria at the moment, with around half | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
So how big is the threat we face from returning fighters? | :01:29. | :01:36. | |
Here's our Home Affairs Correspondent, Guy Smith. | :01:37. | :01:45. | |
We can call Vietnam the first televised war. This is the first | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
social media work. Doctor Erin Saltman, an expert on onlind | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
extremism. She is currently monitoring at least 30 accotnts on | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
Twitter. Many belong to fordign fighters in Syria and Iraq, some of | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
them British, all pushing ott propaganda for the Islamic State. We | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
are seeing crucifixions, beheadings and we are seeing gruesome lartyrdom | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
images. But she also told md there had been a shift in emphasis. The | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
focus online has changed with the Foley video, with a British person | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
conducting the beheading. Now the focus is back on to the West. That | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
will concern British citizens and that will concern London. L`st | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
night, a 27`year`old British Pakistani spoke to the BBC's | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
Newsnight programme. He is from south`east England and said he went | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
to Syria to fight against the Assad regime but ended up joining Islamic | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
State. Here, he boasts of them beheading other rebel fightdrs only | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
last week. Yes, we beheaded some guys `s well. | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
I believe there were three, four guys beheaded. The authorithes here | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
are worried about British jhhadists like this one returning to the UK. I | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
hate the UK. The only reason I would return is to plant a bomb somewhere. | :03:22. | :03:29. | |
Britain's most senior officdr said there are up to 500 British fighters | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
in Syria and Iraq, half of them believed to be from the cab `` | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
capital. Five or ten people, it would be simple to resolve. If | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
hundreds of people should arrive back here with a common intdnt to | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
hurt people, that is quite ` challenge. And a big family we have | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
been trying to get out, particularly to families, is to say if you know | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
somebody who is going, tell us now before they go. They do not commit | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
the offence before they go. If they come back, they have a problem. We | :04:02. | :04:10. | |
should not allow ourselves to fall into the trap of getting sc`red by | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
these people. We should not allow them to hold our lives, our | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
happiness, our society to r`nsom. But the question is, while there is | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
much current talk about those who may return, there is also the | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
concern about home`grown extremists in our midst, with devastathng | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
consequences. Most recently, last year with the beheading of ` British | :04:38. | :04:38. | |
soldier in Woolwich. Joining me is Fiyaz Mughal, | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
the director of Faith Matters ` an organisation which works | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
at reducing and tackling extremism. How worried are you? The threat | :04:48. | :04:57. | |
level certainly is there. Is it a high`level? We would say no. | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
Actually, the police are aw`re through intelligence of the | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
individuals out there. We know the figures but we also know th`t when | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
many of these people return they will be arrested. There is ` threat | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
given that you have a large state here. It takes one person to get | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
through the system. That is why the threat never will be there. I think | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
the police and parents and lembers of the Muslim community who have | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
been doing a lot of work behind the scenes that has not been mentioned, | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
there is a lot of intelligence. There is a lot of action thd police | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
will be taking in the futurd when they come back. However, we need to | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
remain vigilant and work to ensure the that the message gets ott that | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
young people should not be hnvolved. That is a very joined up message you | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
are giving. The government have done a good job then? I think thd | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
Government have taken a lasdr`like approach to the prevention work | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
This is part of their counterterrorism strategy. They have | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
taken a laser`like approach to fund projects that are very spechfic | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
looking at radicalised or pdople at the fringes of society. Thex did | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
that in reaction to funding of the projects. So they have got ht right? | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
They have not got it right. The balance has been to laser`lhke. | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
Taking a wider community based approach ensures you get as much | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
engagement and as much information coming back in around indivhduals | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
who may be extreme in our society. That approach us to change. Have | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
they left it too late for it to change or is there still tile? There | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
is still time. We are in an election year. Things do slow down dtring an | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
election year. I'm not suggdsting the Government would put our | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
security on the back burner. But the wheels of government starts to slow | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
down as an kicks in. Focus hs elsewhere. It is not too late but | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
three, three years have been wasted with a laser`like approach to | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
funding projects. You are vdry much commenting on the Government here. | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
You say the Muslim unity is getting it right. Some people would say they | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
are not, that they are in a state of denial, and maybe there is `n issue | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
with the religion? Della macro certainly not with the religion The | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
vast majority of Muslims ard not involved in any violent acthvity. It | :07:29. | :07:37. | |
is not a religious issue. Is the Muslim community in denial? We are | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
in a different place from tdn years ago. Ten years ago there was the | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
sense of denial of an issue. Over the last five years Muslim | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
communities, men, women and young people, have them working up and | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
down the country in a variety of projects, also working with the | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
police and security services to tackle this problem. We are in a | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
different place. Finally, in your opinion is it a matter of when and | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
not if there is an attack on London? Certainly the unfortunate thing is | :08:12. | :08:19. | |
when and not if. It takes one person to get through the system. But the | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
Muslim communities and a range of other partners are working behind | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
the scenes. There is no shortage of condemnation | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
against the horrific acts bx Islamic state. The Muslim community is part | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
of that voice. There is also strong criticism of the Government approach | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
to preventing extremism, with accusations there has been no | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
effective strategy in place to deal with the problem. Tim Donov`n has | :08:47. | :08:54. | |
more. After prayers in Whitechapel today, | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
some give their reaction to the killing, carried out by somdone | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
apparently radicalised and probably on the recently living in London. | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
Wherever this is happening, it doesn't matter. Any killing is bad. | :09:06. | :09:13. | |
I feel bad for one human behng killed by another. What can be | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
attracting Londoners to Isl`mic State? Obviously this is a | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
misrepresentation among youngsters. We should educate them propdrly into | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
Islam and the `` this would not happen. What makes him do that? | :09:30. | :09:41. | |
Brainwashing. Some people move over there for jihad. There is anger | :09:42. | :09:52. | |
Islam does not accept these kinds of activities. There is growing | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
frustration among the youth. They see things happening in Gaz`, Iraq | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
and Afghanistan. It affects them psychologically. Some claim the | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
Government strategy has been failing to talk to the right people and | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
organisations. It is happenhng within the faith groups but it is | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
not happening that much with the Government. Since 2010, the | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
Government deliberately does not formally talk to mainstream Muslim | :10:20. | :10:27. | |
organisations. It is not helpful. At this centre in forest gate, there | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
has been surprised at the sheer numbers said to have joined the | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
Islamic State cause. If trud, that would indicate a failure of | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
prevention and intervention. Why did reach up to 500? Now they are saying | :10:42. | :10:49. | |
these kind of figures. Therd are so many programmes going on. Mhllions | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
of pounds are being spent every year to keep an eye on these events or | :10:55. | :11:02. | |
these sort of radical appro`ches. The government responds that it | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
strategy has been revised and improved, strengthening inptt in | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
prisons, schools and universities. It will, it says, continue to | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
develop ways to dissuade and disrupt. | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
Well, there's lots more to come bdfore | :11:17. | :11:17. | |
the end of the programme, including green energy on the greenbelt. | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
The backlash over plans to build a solar farm in the Surrey | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
And the GCSE students making the grade. | :11:24. | :11:38. | |
There's been nearly a 10% increase in violence | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
According to British Transport Police, | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
sexual assaults are also up, but Transport for London says for every | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
million journeys made here, there are just eight crimes committed | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
You would think there would be safety in numbers here. That it | :11:55. | :12:06. | |
would not be safety in numbdrs here. That it would not was a packed | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
train. He started to touch le. He rubbed himself up against md. This | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
lasted for about four minutds. The man was later convicted. It does | :12:18. | :12:25. | |
affect you for a while. You do become suspicious of everyone, | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
particularly on a packed tr`in. That has eased. Overall, crime on hard | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
shoots and trains is down. But the number of sexual assault has risen | :12:36. | :12:42. | |
by 20%. Violent crime is up to. In London rose by 9.5%. The rise in sex | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
crimes is being put down to more people being willing to report an | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
assault, and to a police calpaign in London. But officers say an increase | :12:52. | :12:58. | |
in violence is the product of a busier transport system. I don't | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
feel particularly safe travdlling late at night. I'm not sure if that | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
is because of actual crime or nuisance. Depends on the tile of | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
day. If I am on the train l`te at night I don't feel particul`rly | :13:14. | :13:22. | |
safe. The unions claim a lack of visible staff make the tube feel | :13:23. | :13:30. | |
less safe. The fact that we are seeing cuts in platform staff, | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
booking office staff and st`ff on trains is deeply worrying. The | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
police know what they have to work with. Anyone in my position would | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
say that more resources would be more helpful. I think we have to be | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
realistic around the way th`t the economic situation is. We h`ve to | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
make sure that we are making the best use of resources. | :13:53. | :14:00. | |
There is plenty of police presence at Victoria today. Officers know | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
this deters and reassures. Ht is a practice the police plan to use more | :14:07. | :14:07. | |
often. A gang that used | :14:08. | :14:08. | |
a sophisticated spy camera to steal details from more than 60,000 bank | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
accounts has been jailed. The four Romanian nationals who | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
operated from Harrow took card data from cash | :14:16. | :14:17. | |
machines, downloaded the details and They were each jailed | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
for up to five years each. Commuters face disruption tomorrow | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
as a planned strike Both the Central and Waterloo | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
and City lines will be affected The ASLEF union said | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
the action is due to transport bosses' "poor treatment of drivers", | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
while London Underground sahd it Metropolitan police officers who had | :14:41. | :14:42. | |
relationships with women while working undercover | :14:43. | :14:52. | |
will notface prosecution. The decision by the | :14:53. | :14:53. | |
Crown Prosecution Service follows legal action from | :14:54. | :14:55. | |
at least ten women who are suing Scotland Yard after they became | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
involved with the men withott Matt Prodger, | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
is following the story for ts. How was this decision reachdd? The | :15:01. | :15:11. | |
Crown Prosecution Service consider the number of charges it max bring | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
against the police officers. It said under the sexual offences act, to | :15:18. | :15:27. | |
prosecute the officerser for rain or indecent assault, to believd the | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
women could not argue alone that the fact that they did not know that | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
these police officers were police officers was not adequate enough and | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
there wouldn't be enough evhdence to mount a prosecution. With rdgards to | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
misconduct, they would have to argue or prove that the police officers | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
had knowingly abused their position. Their position as police officers, | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
to form relationships, sexu`l relationships with these wolen. They | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
believe there wasn't enough evidence. Now, the police l`st week | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
argued that in at least the cases of two of the under cover officers | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
these were genuine relationships and were not police tactics. I `sked one | :16:07. | :16:14. | |
of women whether she believdd it was a genuine relationship. A gdnuine | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
relationship is based on trtst between two people. This wasn't like | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
that. It was a lie to, deceht and an abuse of trust. It was abusd. How | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
else can you say it? So the question is what happens now? A group of ten | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
women are still suing the police in the civil courts. That is ongoing, | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
despite the absence of a prosecution. The police say they are | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
considering misconduct procdedings against the police officers and | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
there is a wider background, there is a number of inquiries and | :16:49. | :16:54. | |
investigations under way into the activities of under cover police | :16:55. | :16:55. | |
officers Pa and present. Th`nk you. Sweeping changes to GCSE ex`ms | :16:56. | :17:04. | |
have had a dramatic impact on English has had | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
the largest ever drop in thd number Our Education reporter, | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
Marc Ashdown spent the day at a school in south London ` | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
as students got their results. Nine A stars and four As. Not a bad | :17:17. | :17:31. | |
days work for Jacob. Before I opened it I was shaking. But when H saw | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
them, it was like a huge relief I was happy. He did sit some dxams | :17:36. | :17:43. | |
early, but that is changing. These the first pupils to feel thd impact | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
of the shake`up. There has been a return to end of year exams. A | :17:47. | :17:55. | |
student's first go at an ex`m is the only one that counts towards league | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
tables. Subjects like geogr`phy and history have been toughened and in | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
English teacher assessed eldments have been dropped in favour of more | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
exams. If they change the boundaries for maths I would have gottdn an A | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
star, instead of an A. So I'm angry about that. The same with England | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
and science. People found thing have been made hard. But I worked hard | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
and I found them the same. Hn two years this school has gone from 40% | :18:29. | :18:37. | |
of pupils getting good gradds to 75%. Ministers said to expect | :18:38. | :18:44. | |
volatility in the results. Not good enough said the head teacher. You | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
have seen the children, this meaning everything to them and they have | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
worked hard to make sure thdy get the best they can. If changds are | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
going to be made, and frankly we all knew they needed to be bgs xou don't | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
do it this way by what has been said today, clearly they're not ready for | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
the change. So why did we ilplement it so quickly and in such a | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
haphazard way? It has been ` remarkable turn around here, but | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
this is the start of a tricky few years. The Government hopes tougher | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
GCSE will better prepare yotng people for life. We can expdct some | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
more volatility along the w`y. It's long been argued | :19:28. | :19:35. | |
by many scientists that the key to our energy problems | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
and spiralling bills is the sun But plans to build a massivd solar | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
farm on green belt land in Reigate in Surrey is causing real anger | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
among local residents. Katharine Carpenter has been to | :19:46. | :19:47. | |
the area to learn more For 35 years Peter has climbed the | :19:48. | :19:54. | |
hill behind his house to enjoy the view of the area. When he found out | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
a planning application had gone in to build a solar farm on 60 acres of | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
it, he was horrified. We, as a small community and the wider comlunity, | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
all use this beautiful area. It is very difficult to accept th`t it is | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
going to get blighted by a lassive industrial site. Close up it will | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
look like this. Two tiers of panels up to 2.4 metres high. With the | :20:25. | :20:32. | |
potential enough electricitx to power 3,500 homes. We have picked a | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
site that is well screened `nd most people won't see it. It will provide | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
16% of Reigate's electricitx over the course of the year. He denies | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
this is about profit. Stressing the UK's need for green energy. The | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
people campaigning against the development say they're not against | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
all renewable energy, but they don't want to see it on this site. That is | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
the conflict being played ott across the south`east, whether it hs solar, | :21:02. | :21:07. | |
wind or fracking power that is up for discussion. Last week there were | :21:08. | :21:18. | |
guidance on solar farms. Thdy would prefer to see solar energy developed | :21:19. | :21:26. | |
on roof tops. The man behind one project says it is not enough. You | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
can lose solar in the built environment. It is not an ehther or. | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
If we want to escape from Vladimir Putin's clutches at the end of the | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
gas pipelines, we will need both. But not here say the campaigners. | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
The council will have to consider nearly 200 comments on the planning | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
application before it makes a decision. But the outcome whll | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
affect generations. As you've been hearing the former | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
Watford manager Malky Mackax is no longer in the running to be the new | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
Crystal Palace boss following allegations about racist, sdxist | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
and homophobic text messages. The Eagles Sporting Director Ian | :22:09. | :22:10. | |
Moodie, resigned today after being Ahead of Palace's match with | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
West Ham on Saturday, caret`ker boss Keith Millen said the search | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
for a new manager continues and he It's said that | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
money doesn't buy happiness. And if you look at London | :22:20. | :22:27. | |
that could just be true. After all, we live in one | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
of the richest cities in thd world. We have the highest average salaries | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
in the country and yet we'vd been found to be amongst the most | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
unhappy people in the country. Charlotte Franks put on her | :22:37. | :22:39. | |
best smile to find out more. How happy are Londoners? It seems | :22:40. | :22:52. | |
not very. A report says we `re the most miserable people in thd UK The | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
worst thing about London is every where is too busy. Takes me an hour | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
and a half to get home. But there are people in pursuit of happiness | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
if you know where to look. The findings of a report show the | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
unhappiest people are those earning less than ?100 a year. But hf you | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
earn more than ?4,000 a month it does not necessarily make you happy. | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
Wealthy owners have anxiety scores higher than any other residdnt in | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
the UK on the same salary. But one group are enjoying life in the | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
capital. Those with the lowdst anxiety are those aged 80 and over. | :23:32. | :23:39. | |
And the ones with the highest were those with high levels of | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
qualification, high incomes. What can be done to puts a smile on | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
everybody else's face. Times spent with friends, these are the | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
activities we attend to and pay attention to these events and enjoy | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
it more and it lasts longer than money. It means a lot to London that | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
if you want to have a lot of happy people in, we know happier people | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
are more productive and healthier. Some economists believe well being | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
should be used as a measure of economic success. We know some of | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
the anxieties are around hotsing and employment and health and so we look | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
at those and it helps us to develop our policies that we are developing | :24:24. | :24:26. | |
a health commission for London, which is looking at the quality of | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
health in London. So despitd living in one of the richest and most | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
influential cities in the word, it is clear from the report th`t money | :24:35. | :24:42. | |
doesn't always buy you happhness. As a Londoner, I think that report is | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
wrong. London is a great city. People are happy and especi`lly when | :24:48. | :24:55. | |
the weather is so good, Sar`h. Yes some sunny spells over the weekend. | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
But it is chilly for the next few nights. Tonight scattered showers | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
pushing in, but that will mdan it won't be as cold. The satellite | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
shows sunshine earlier. But this area of cloud has been fittdring in | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
`` filtering in from the north and under that cloud a few heavx bursts | :25:17. | :25:23. | |
of rain. A dry evening, but the showers starting to filter hn from | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
the north and west through the early hours. And there could be hdavy in | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
fact. Moving through into the morning we could see the odd rumble | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
of thunder and the odd heavher bursts. But temperatures in double | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
figures. Not as cold as we saw during Thursday morning. Once the | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
showers get out of the way we are left with some decent sunshhne and | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
not a bad day. A lot of dry and fine weather. A few showers in northern | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
parts of London through the afternoon. But a degree or so warmer | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
than Thursday. With temperatures up to 21 degrees and more sunshine The | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
settled conditions continue into the first part of the weekend. So | :26:07. | :26:09. | |
through Friday night and into Saturday, still a chance of a light | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
shower, but most of us will avoid them. Largely clear skies to start | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
Saturday morning. Saturday brings us a lot of sunshine. Not a bad day. A | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
breeze coming in from the wdst at times. Just taking the edge off the | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
temperatures, but with that sunshine it won't feel too bad, up to 20 | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
degrees. A few showers towards the north. But it is looking fine and | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
for the rest of the weekend we will see just a few light showers into | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
Monday more of a chance of some rain. But sunshine until we get | :26:43. | :26:59. | |
there. Thank you. The headlhnes Three British Jihadist have been | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
