Coming up: The courageous actions of a Dorset MP who battled to save the | :00:07. | :00:15. | |
life of the policemen killed in the Westminster terror attack. | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
A record fine for a water company after more than 1 billion litres of | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
raw sewage was pumped into the River Thames. And why have only half the | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
passengers and title to Southern Railway compensation apply for it? | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
-- entitled to The Bournemouth East MP, | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
Tobias Ellwood, is being hailed a hero tonight for his actions | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
to try and save the life of a policeman killed | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
in the Westminster terror attack. The former soldier attempted to give | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
the officer mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and stem the flow | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
of blood from his wounds after he was stabbed | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
in New Palace Yard. Our political editor Peter Henley | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
sent this from behind the security the story around Tobias Ellwood, for | :00:58. | :01:12. | |
's office minister, is a remarkable -- is a remarkable one. A captain in | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
the Royal Marines, he was walking on his way to vote in the House of | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
Commons and walked the wrong way from the way he was supposed to and | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
so the injured policeman. He performed CPR, try to stem the | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
bleeding until the medics arrived. He carried on for 15 minutes or so. | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
Tobias Ellwood lost his own brother in the Bali terrorist attacks some | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
years ago. I've known him since he was before an MP. He has been | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
involved in a few have I go incidents and is the one person who | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
would -- is the one person you would rely on to get involved in a | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
situation like that. We all crouched down behind the | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
pillars and then got very quick instructions to head back towards | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
portcullis house. At which point, my good friend Tobias Ellwood marched | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
in a fashion in the opposite direction. I knew he had a mission | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
in mind and it was about helping the chap, the police officer, who was | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
injured. The house will be sitting tomorrow, | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
business at usual. Hopefully tourists will still be coming here | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
because, whatever motivation there is this person, they were trying to | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
disrupt normal life but normal life will go on. | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
Tonight, extra police officers are on hand at main railway stations | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
in the south after today's events in London. | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
British Transport Police say it's to offer reassurance | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
rather than in response to a specific threat. | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
Dozens of students from the region were caught up in today's events | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
at Westminster whilst on tours of Parliament, as part | :02:59. | :03:00. | |
One school in Hampshire left the Houses of Parliament | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
just moments before today's attacks began. | :03:04. | :03:05. | |
These school children were among dozens visiting Parliament today | :03:06. | :03:14. | |
Schools including East Preston School from Littlehampton | :03:15. | :03:24. | |
and Northmead Junior School in Guilford were all on trips | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
One school that had been there just moments before today's attack | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
was The Kings School from Winchester. | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
We were very close. We didn't see or hear the incident but had just got | :03:33. | :03:45. | |
on to coach and were within a few metres of it. | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
For most of the day, the Palace of Westminster | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
meaning MPs from the south were kept inside. | :03:51. | :03:58. | |
I've just left Westminster after an incredibly difficult day. A shocking | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
incident of terrorism. I was coming across to vote towards the fountain | :04:05. | :04:12. | |
and had been told that there were shots heard and he had to leave | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
immediately. I rushed down the embankment, picked up my shoes and | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
ran, warning other people to get away as far as they could. | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
This evening, the British Transport Police said extra officers would be | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
in place at railway stations, including Southampton Central | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
and around the south of England to offer reassurance to passengers | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
Tonight at Romsey Abbey, prayers were said to remember those | :04:30. | :04:37. | |
Whilst this attack happened in London, | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
the ripples of what happened ran far deeper. | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
The director of Thames Water has apologised and admitted it failed | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
in its responsibility to the environment after it was | :04:48. | :04:56. | |
fined ?20 million for polluting the River Thames. | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
The company admitted pumping nearly one and a half billion litres | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
of sewage into the river in incidents in Berkshire, | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
The Environment Agency described it as one of the worst pollution | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
The river was black, grey, very smelly, there was dead fish. | :05:09. | :05:21. | |
More than a billion litres of untreated sewage were released | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
into the River Thames and its tributaries | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
After receiving a record fine at Aylesbury Crown Court, Thames Water | :05:28. | :05:40. | |
said it has invested millions in new equipment since the offences. | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
There have been sweeping, far-reaching changes | :05:44. | :05:45. | |
That has included more people, more and better systems | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
The court case followed a three-year investigation | :05:52. | :05:59. | |
The scale was enormous and the pattern of offending was disturbing. | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
It was not because there had been new conditions and permits by us, | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
it was because basic equipment, screens and pumps were not | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
Thames Water has paid for new fencing to keep cattle away | :06:17. | :06:29. | |
Highly irresponsible that such a large company with such | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
large profit margins are polluting our waterways. | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
The judge described Thames Water's failings | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
as diabolical and disgraceful and entirely foreseeable. | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
He said all the problems were avoidable by any competent | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
Local environmental groups welcomed the fine but, as the countryside | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
recovers, their message is that Thames Water simply did not | :07:00. | :07:01. | |
do its job and must change its ways for good. | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
Half the passengers entitled to compensation for poor service | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
on Southern Railway have failed to claim it. | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
Almost 43,000 Southern Railway season ticket holders have | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
so far received a total of ?10 million of compensation. | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
Here's our transport correspondent Paul Clifton. | :07:22. | :07:30. | |
The government announced a one-off compensation deal for Sutherland | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
passengers in December. The aim was to help those who have endured | :07:37. | :07:44. | |
months of disruption. Due to engineering work, inadequate service | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
from Britain's poorest performing train company and strikes. 84,000 | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
season-ticket holders are eligible. So far just under 43,000 claims have | :07:57. | :08:06. | |
been processed. Almost half those passengers who could claim | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
compensation either have not bother at or are not aware of what they can | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
claim. I've had the letter saying that I'm | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
due a compensation amounts on my annual season ticket and I followed | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
the instructions but nothing has come through yet. | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
It is not easy, that is why I never claim. The process takes longer than | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
the train is always delayed. I would rather have an operator that | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
can run the trains as they should be run. It is very frustrating and it | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
does affect your life. Annual season ticket holders are | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
entitled to four weeks of free travel. Quarterly, weekly and | :08:45. | :08:54. | |
monthly ticket holders can get back the equivalent. | :08:55. | :08:56. | |
A student nurse who was treated for leukaemia as a child is now | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
working on the wards at Southampton General, | :09:01. | :09:02. | |
alongside the nurse who looked after her 15 years ago. | :09:03. | :09:11. | |
Clara Markavitch was given a 40% chance of survival | :09:12. | :09:13. | |
After years of treatment she is now pursuing her dream of becoming | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
She looked at me and then she that everyone else and she was like, I | :09:18. | :09:31. | |
know you. And I was like, know you. And I hadn't seen and so long and we | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
had a big hug and were shaking. I showed her photos I had on my phone. | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
It was amazing. You can keep up to date on the BBC | :09:43. | :09:44. | |
news channel and online. We will be back with bulletins | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
in BBC Breakfast tomorrow morning, but now here's the weather | :09:49. | :09:50. | |
with Sam Fraser. We had a showery theme today and it | :09:51. | :10:08. | |
will continue tonight. You can see that band of rain moving east to | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
west throughout the night. It is the same rain that moved west to east | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
today. It is coming back to haunt us. Under the cloudy skies, | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
temperatures will return to about five Celsius by dawn. It is a dull | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
and damp start tomorrow morning although the showers start to move | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
off and things brighten up quite quickly with some sunshine perhaps | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
breaking through the afternoon. We are going to keep those showers | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
along the coast for much of the Day, I'm afraid. There will be a keen | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
easterly wind which will take the edge off as temperatures. On Friday, | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
that stubborn area of low pressure is set to feed fresh showers and for | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
a time but high pressure begins to sink side so it will be a more | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
settled picture It certainly was a pretty wet day | :11:00. | :11:09. | |
across parts | :11:10. | :11:10. |
