believes that, with more powers being promised for those living | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
north of the border, it's also time for greater financial control to be | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
handed to City Hall. But should the capital and its Mayor be given more | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
political power? This report from our political editor, Tim Donovan. | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
Scotland was heard at Westminster and the conversation turned, to | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
England, and, yes, to London. With its current Mayor believing from | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
what the Prime Minister hinted at today that there would soon be more | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
powers for him or his successors anyway. Local government is all | :01:02. | :01:07. | |

legislation that made that happen says without question it is time for | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
more freedoms. I think the crucial thing in London is more fin`ncial | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
control. This is the great `nomaly that London, which is very much the | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
that London, which is very luch the economic powerhouse of the UK, | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
that London, which is very much the economic powerhouse of the TK, has | :01:46. | :01:45. | |

against always on getting consent from Government for major | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
investment. That cannot be right. So what are these new financial powers | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
which London could soon get? The talk is of transferring property | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
taxes, including stamp duty, around half of the national total currently | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
being raised in London. London would control all business rate income, | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
and council tax would be revalued with new higher bands, and | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
potentially more freedom to raise it if needed for investment. This would | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
still mean London raising for itself just 12% of the amount it friends, a | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
fraction of the freedoms, say, of New York. But then the vital vital | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
question of being allowed to borrow more. London, much bigger population | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
than London, twice the population. We need a cohesive strategy and | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
leadership on the issue. I think the debate is about devolving powers | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
straight from Westminster down to city regions, Metro regions. In | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
London it is not just about devolving to the Mayor. It has to go | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
lower. The Mayor and groups of boroughs working together. Some | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
suggested what exists now should be improved before more powers are | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
added. Is there a need to look at the internal structure of Greater | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
London government? Does the Assembly have enough powers to hold the mayor | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
to account? Sit wise to downward trance fear more powers before we've | :03:15. | :03:20. | |

the debate and energy it has unleashed. | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
Police hunting a convicted murderer in connection with the disappearance | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
of the West London schoolgirl, Alice Gross, have found a bike belonging | :03:43. | :03:46. | |

The search continues, but now at a second property. After five days of | :04:00. | :04:04. | |

afternoon, on that afternoon Alice crossed the bridge in Brentford 15 | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
minutes later so did Arnis Zalkalns. Police believed their paths crossed. | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
In 1998 Arnis Zalkalns was convicted of murdering his wife and btrying | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
of murdering his wife and burying his body in woodland. He was accused | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
but not charged of indecently assaulting a 14`year`old girl. The | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
police maintained there is no evidence to suggest that Alhce has | :04:57. | :04:57. | |
evidence to suggest that Alice has come to harm, but she's been gone | :04:58. | :05:00. | |

space now has a glass ceiling, which allows the public to see thd works | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
of art in natural light for the first time. The most import`nt | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
element was to bring natural light into the gallery. For this we had to | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
take off the roof, build a new roof, get the lighting in, so the top | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
lighting, the glass surface is new. Because artworks are fragild, | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
there's a lot of technology behind this. | :06:12. | :06:12. | |
Finally, torrential rain and hailstorms caused flash floods in | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
parts of London today. The heavy downpours flooded roads and caused | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
problems at some Tube stations. One family in East London had to be | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
rescued by the London Fire Brigade from a basement flat. | :06:23. | :06:32. | |
We've had some really quite disruptive thunderstorms. Hopefully | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
the worst will be over by the end of tomorrow. But still there are a few | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
storms out there, hence the warning from the Met Office for the rest of | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
tonight and tomorrow. For most of us it will be muggy again, and misty, | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
with fog. The risk is there tomorrow. The difference is there'll | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
be more cloud after the mist and fog clears. It will be humid, hence the | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
risk of a few showers. The hsolated risk of a few showers. The hsolated | :06:59. | :07:06. | |
