Hello and welcome to a special edition of One Hundred Days. | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
I'm Christian Fraser live in Westminster. | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
Our headlines: Police name the suspect behind Wednesday's | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
terror attack here as 52-year-old Khalid Masood. | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
What I can confirm is that the man was British-born and that some years | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
ago, he was once investigated by M15 in relation to concerns | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
Tributes in parliament, a moment's silence is held for the victims, | :00:37. | :00:45. | |
an American tourist, a mother, and a policeman killed | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
Eight people are arrested in raids across London and Birmingham, | :00:49. | :00:56. | |
so-called Islamic State says one of its soldiers carried | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
Here in the US, the British Foreign Secretary attends an anti-Islamic | :00:59. | :01:07. | |
State summit and at the UN, rallies world partners | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
Our values are superior, our view of the world | :01:12. | :01:17. | |
is better and more generous and our will is stronger. | :01:18. | :01:25. | |
In the shadow of Big Ben, politicians and people | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
of all faiths attend a vigil, three candles are lit | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
for each of the victims of the Westminster attack. | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
And Berlin's Brandenburg Gate is bathed in the Union flag | :01:35. | :01:36. | |
as cities around the world show solidarity with London. | :01:37. | :01:55. | |
It has been a sombre, reflective day at the Palace of Westminster. | :01:56. | :02:04. | |
We are on the edge of the Peace Corps in which is still in place as | :02:05. | :02:13. | |
we speak. The police are still concluding the final investigation. | :02:14. | :02:14. | |
It has been a sombre, reflective day at the Palace of Westminster. | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
The thoughts of everyone remain with the family of the murdered | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
Policeman Keith Palmer and two other people killed as they walked | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
across Westminster bridge yesterday afternoon. | :02:23. | :02:24. | |
In total 29 people were injured, among them 13 nationalities, | :02:25. | :02:26. | |
several we are told remain in a critical condition. | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
This morning, Parliament paused for a minutes | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
The Queen expressed her sympathies for those killed and in the past | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
hour hundreds of people have gathered for a vigil | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
in Trafalgar Square, just a short walk away. | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
Candles were lit for the three victims who lost their lives, | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
We know much more about the man suspected of | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
Khaled Massood, a 52-year-old British man from Kent, | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
he had a number of previous convictions for violence, | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
and he was on the periphery of a terror investigation some years | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
ago, though he was not currently on the radar | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
This evening the police said that eight people, | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
three women and five men, have been arrested in London | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
and Birmingham on suspicion of preparation of terrorist acts. | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
Let s get our first report from our special correspondent, Lucy Manning. | :03:18. | :03:28. | |
With a car and a knife, he brought terror to Parliament. He is the lead | :03:29. | :03:36. | |
Masood, a British-born attacker, known to the police with a 20 year | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
criminal record, though not for terrorism. The 52-year-old | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
responsible for the murder of a policeman, a mother on her way to | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
collect the children and. The lead Masood was born in Kent and was most | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
recently living in the West Midlands. He had a range of previous | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
convictions including GB huge, possession of offensive weapons and | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
public order offences. His last conviction was in 2003 for | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
possession of a knife. He was also known by a number of aliases and he | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
was known to security services. What I can confirm is that the man was | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
British-born and that some years ago he was once investigated by MI5 in | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
relation to concerns about violent extremism. He was a peripheral | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
figure. The case is historic. He was not part of the current intelligence | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
picture. There was no prior intelligence of his intent or of the | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
plot. Intensive investigations continue. Just metres from where the | :04:38. | :04:46. | |
Prime Minister spoke, on their knees, police slowly, meticulously | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
searching for evidence on the same ground where one of their own lay | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
just yesterday to stop determined to find out everything they can about | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
the man who murdered PC Keith Palmer in the shadow of the then and ran | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
over those are just walking on Westminster Bridge. Not just routine | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
police work, this time, it is personal. Across the country, | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
overnight, police swung into action. A flat in Birmingham was raided. | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
Neighbours said they thought Masood lived there recently. Also in | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
Birmingham, in the Ladywood area, filmed by neighbours, heavily armed | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
officers searched another flat. Locals said it was like a scene from | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
the film. Like a war. Down the street, like something you only see | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
in movies. I saw it from behind my windows on the street. It was very | :05:42. | :05:49. | |
frightening. It was like, what the hell is happening here? As well as | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
searches in Birmingham police also raided homes and made arrests in the | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
forest gate area of east London. In Wales, Surrey and Sussex, a total of | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
eight people have been arrested in six separate locations. It is now | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
known the people he turned into a weapon was a rental car he retired | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
in Birmingham in the Spring Hill branch of enterprise cards. There | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
has been intense police activity all day in Birmingham. With the attacker | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
dead, the focus is on his friends and family, whether they knew about | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
his motivations, his intentions, whether he had only help with the | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
attack on parliament. It is still our belief, which is point out about | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
our investigation, that the attacker acted alone and was inspired by | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
international terrorism. To be explicit, at this stage, we have no | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
significant information about further threat to the public. | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
So-called Islamic State, without providing any evidence, and the | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
attacker was, as they described him, one of their soldiers. The police | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
are now attracting Masood's movements. The man who put into a | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
car and drove terror into the heart of Westminster. | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
There is a lot of discussion about the investigation. Each of these | :07:13. | :07:21. | |
stories about the victims seems heartbreaking. A lot of people have | :07:22. | :07:28. | |
spoken about how London must pick itself up and get on with it. We | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
will do that, because we have been here before, but there is heartfelt | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
sadness for the three victims. In terrorist attacks are always tragic | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
stories but particularly so in this instance because you have a mother | :07:42. | :07:43. | |
who was crossing the bridge were going to pick up her daughters who | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
were waiting in a school. I am a father, you can imagine what it must | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
be like for children to be working there for the mother who doesn't | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
arrive. Kurt Cochran and his wife, Melissa, who worked at the end of a | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
vacation. They probably spent a lot of money on it, they had been around | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
Europe, they came here to see her parents who are working in London. | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
They are Mormon missionaries. They were due to go back today and then, | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
of course, the story of PC Keith Palmer, he gave his life to service | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
in the Royal Artillery and then in the Metropolitan Police. When | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
everyone was running away from the violence, he was running towards it | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
and without a weapon. Just selfless bravery which is sad indeed, when | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
you reflect on what happened to him. Londoners will get on with it but in | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
the mind of everybody as they make their way home, they will be | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
thinking especially of those three people. Let's speak to our security | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
correspondent, Frank Gardner. We are learning more about coloured Masood. | :08:46. | :08:53. | |
Not a typical profile, quite old and he has not been inside since 2003. | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
Yes, unusual. He was known to the police and MI5, but he was not an | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
anti-terror watch list. He had an extensive record for petty crime, | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
mainly for violent assault, possession of a knife, grievous | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
bodily harm, but he had not been in trouble with the law since 2003. He | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
was peripheral. He was not an anti-terror watch list. That is | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
quite worrying because there will be many others like him. He was | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
relatively old for a jihadist, 52. It is not unheard of. There was | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
somebody who blew himself up in Iraq, the British jihadist, if you | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
weeks ago and he was 51. Generally, most jihadists are in their teens | :09:40. | :09:48. | |
and 20s. We had this situation yesterday where we had 68 nations | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
meeting here in Washington, promising to commit themselves to | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
try and eradicate the threat from Islamic terrorism. What have these | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
these terms like soldier of Islamic State and we don't know what that | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
means, that shows just how difficult it is, doesn't it? That is Islamic | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
State digging itself up. It is possible they didn't know about this | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
and there were no actual communications between Islamic State | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
and this man. It is possible that a posthumous video, in martyrdom | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
video, will appear afterwards. He does seem to have largely acted on | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
his own. There is no such thing as a completely lone wolf attack. There | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
will be digital footprints. GCHQ will be looking into what is | :10:33. | :10:39. | |
encrypted on his computer to work out who he had been in touch with | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
and who he had met. Forensics will look at the fingerprints in the car | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
to see who else had been in it. He is a strange character. Born in Kent | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
in south-east England, he lived in Luton which has been described as a | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
hotbed of Islamic fundamentalism, where some people referred to him as | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
the vampire because neighbours said he would always go out only at night | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
and dressed in black. The body is suggesting he drank blood, but he | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
was a strange character, very conflicted and this is a very | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
typical. A large number of jihadists attackers have a criminal or violent | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
records that have nothing to do with terrorism and it is hard to spot | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
them. Thank you Frank. The British Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson has | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
been here in the US since Tuesday attending the meeting of the | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
coalition against so-called Islamic State. | :11:30. | :11:30. | |
This morning, he appeared on MSNBC's Morning Joe where I spoke | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
The Prime Minister said something interesting which points to a | :11:34. | :11:41. | |
problem with intelligence services, which is that this figure had been | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
peripheral in previous investigations, but was not | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
currently part of any intelligence investigations. It is hard, isn't | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
it? Intelligence services have to prioritise and they clearly did not | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
prioritise this individual. It has happened before with the leader of | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
the 7-7 attacks who was under surveillance and then it wasn't | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
under surveillance, how do we make those choices? I understand where | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
you are going with this. This is not something I can get into. Suffice it | :12:13. | :12:21. | |
to say, we have, in London, as is almost certainly the case in New | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
York and many other great metropolises, there are a number of | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
people who are under surveillance, people who are objects of concern. | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
The important thing to realise is that the kind of extremism that they | :12:32. | :12:42. | |
espouse is dangerous, it all too often leads to their involvement, or | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
there would be involvement in terrorist acts. I am afraid they | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
require a huge amount of surveillance, of monitoring and they | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
move up and down the hierarchy of risk. | :12:58. | :13:06. | |
The Foreign Secretary sounded like I was trying to criticism. It is far | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
too early to know whether the security services demand some kind | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
of criticism. What I was 20 point out is that it is almost impossible, | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
with the resources that intelligence agencies have and equally self, to | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
monitor everybody permanently good comes on their radar. As Frank | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
pointed out, this is not an obvious candidate and he had been off the | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
radar for a long time. These are difficult choices for all Western | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
nations to make. Absolutely. As a former Paris correspondent when I | :13:40. | :13:41. | |
was in France, the French authorities said this all the time. | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
They had thousands of people on there at risk list. The people they | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
thought were a risk to French society and they couldn't monitor | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
them all times. They have to pick those who are the biggest risk of | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
one particular moment and some drop off the list, dropped off the radar | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
and come back on them. I have seen that happen. I can also think of two | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
incidents, one in 2014, similar to this. A man was shouting is slogans | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
out of the window, injured 13 people and he was not, in the strictest | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
sense, a trained Islamic jihadist. He had not been to Syria, he was not | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
a soldier of Islam, if you will, he was someone who was deranged, | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
suffered from depression. The same was true of the man in Nice. He | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
suffered from depression, a loner, broken relationships, petty crime | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
and it looks, and there is a lot we need to find out, but it looks like | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
the Masood might 50s in profile. That is difficult to tackle, | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
especially when they are not using conventional weapons. There are | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
times intelligence services do make mistakes and we will open them up to | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
scrutiny, but it is worth recognising that these are | :14:58. | :14:59. | |
incredibly difficult choices that have to be made with limited | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
resources. Absolutely. You have to have a discussion within countries | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
about how much you put into security and how you close your society. We | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
respect and like the fact that it is free here, especially in this | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
village in Westminster where people can go into Parliament. How much | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
security do you around it will be a debate for the weeks and months to | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
come. Emotions here have been running high within the UK | :15:26. | :15:26. | |
Parliament. MPs paid tribute to those | :15:27. | :15:28. | |
who died, including There was a personal response | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
from an MP who once served with PC The Prime Minister Theresa May said, | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
we will never waver The streets are as busy as ever, the | :15:36. | :15:52. | |
offices of food, copy shops and cafes bustling. As I speak, millions | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
will be boarding trains and aeroplanes to travel to London and | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
see for themselves the greatest city on earth. It is in these actions, | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
millions of acts of normality that we find the best response to | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
terrorism. A response that denies our enemies their victory, that | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
refuses to let them win, that shows we will never give in. A response | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
driven by that same spirit that drove a husband and father to put | :16:22. | :16:28. | |
himself between us and our attacker and to pay the ultimate price. I | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
would like to turn for a moment to PC Keith, who I first met 25 years | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
ago has gone Keith Palmer at headquarters battery, Royal | :16:40. | :16:47. | |
Artillery. He was a strong, professional public servant. It was | :16:48. | :16:55. | |
a delight to meeting here again only a few months after being elected. | :16:56. | :17:03. | |
Wood my right honourable friend, the Prime Minister, in recognition of | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
the work that he did and the other police officers and public servants | :17:08. | :17:15. | |
here in the house do to consider recognising his gallantry and | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
sacrifice formally a posthumous recognition? Well, I thank my | :17:21. | :17:32. | |
honourable friend for the obvious compassion and passion with which he | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
has spoken about an individual EU and he bears witness to the | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
tremendous public service that Keith Palmer had given this country in so | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
many ways. Having served in our Armed Forces and then come here to | :17:44. | :17:50. | |
this place and paid the ultimate sacrifice here at our heart of | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
democracy. I can assure my honourable friend that the issue he | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
has raised is one that will be considered in due course. | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
A difficult day for many MPs today. They were locked down for hours | :18:06. | :18:11. | |
yesterday at not knowing what was going on and the palace. Let me | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
introduce you to Harriet Harmon, former deputy leader of the Labour | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
Party. He spoke today at the debate. Tell us what your thoughts are | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
tonight. We all felt very sad indeed for the PC who lost his life | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
defending us, keeping us safe and our heartfelt sympathy goes to his | :18:31. | :18:37. | |
family. Also, isn't that the House of Commons had to be business as | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
usual. We were not going to let this crime prevent us doing our job and | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
fear and concern about the people who are still lying in hospital, but | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
a sense that, as an act of terror, this is field. As a crank killed and | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
injured people and it was a horrific crime. People will still, as they | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
are tonight, go about their business in London. There has been a lot of | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
focus about courage he just behind this at the foot of the then. He | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
managed to get through the gate. It is a busy gate. You are the longest | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
serving woman in the Commons and I said that because you will have seen | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
over the years how secure -- how security has changed. Are you happy | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
with security as it is tonight? In 1982 when I first became a member of | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
Parliament there was no system of passes, there was no security at | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
all. People would just walk in and out. That might be one or two police | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
on the door just to show the public where they could go to see their MP | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
and then there were the IRA threats, so there was security raised then | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
and then there was Al-Qaeda. Over the years, the security has been | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
increased. Very reluctantly anyway, because one thing Parliament values | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
is its relationship with the public and its accessibility. There would | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
be sensible, thorough review of this awful crime and there will be | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
sensible precautionary measures. We are going to carry on going on with | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
our business. We also value the fact that our policemen did not carry | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
weapons. We are different to the United States. This is an area of | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
London disposed of risk. This is one of the main targets in the country, | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
