Tonight at Ten, migrants from other parts of Europe will face tougher | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
rules on claiming benefits. In just 35 days' time controls on Romanians | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
and Bulgarians will be lifted. David Cameron says he's right to take | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
action. I have seen other European countries that do take a tougher | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
approach than us, that have pushed the legal boundaries more than we | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
have done and I think we should do that right here in Britain as well. | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
And we'll be reporting from a town in Lincolnshire which has seen high | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
immigration from Eastern Europe in recent years. We'll have details of | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
the proposals, which the European Commission says could make Britain | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
seem like a "nasty country". Also tonight: The chairman of RBS | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
says there'll be a full investigation of claims that the | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
bank forced companies out of business in order to seize their | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
assets. After this family of four was | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
stabbed to death, a man is convicted of murder, despite a series of | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
police mistakes. In Brazil, a crane collapses killing | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
two people as work on the World Cup venues runs into new problems. | :01:05. | :01:12. | |
And United score first in their Champions' League tie tonight. | :01:13. | :01:24. | |
Coming up in Sportsday, Sergio Aguero is on the scoresheet at the | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
Etihad Stadium. Good evening. David Cameron has | :01:28. | :01:51. | |
defended his plans to limit welfare benefits for migrants from other | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
parts of Europe. The Prime Minister said he was listening to people's | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
concerns about the impact of more immigration. From January the 1st, | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
European restrictions on Romanians and Bulgarians looking for work in | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
Britain will be lifted. Mr Cameron wants to restrict their right to | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
benefits, and says that "freedom of movement" should not mean freedom to | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
claim welfare payments. But the European Commission said the | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
UK was in danger of being seen as the "nasty country". Mr Cameron | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
spoke to our political editor Nick Robinson. | :02:22. | :02:29. | |
There are just 35 days to go until any citizen of Romania or Bulgarian | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
will be free to work in the UK. The date has been in the diary for | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
years, but today the Prime Minister promised to tighten up the then if | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
it rules, in time for January the 1st. To anyone, and this is not just | :02:43. | :02:50. | |
Romanians and Bulgarians, to anyone in European Union countries, | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
thinking of coming to Britain because they think it is easier to | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
claim benefits, I think it is very important to send a clear message | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
out that that is not the case. Frankly, some of this work has come | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
about because I have seen other European countries which do take a | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
tougher approach than us. Sending a signal means tweaking the rules for | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
new arrivals here who want to claim out of work benefits. They will have | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
to wait three months for claiming job-seeker's allowance. It will only | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
be payable for six months. Those out of work will not be able to claim | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
housing benefit at the same time. How many will be affected? How much | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
will be saved? Downing Street say they do not know. Are you worried | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
that tens of thousands of Romanians and Bulgarians will come? I am not | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
going to make an estimate. I think the last government made a mistake | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
by doing that. Our job is to put in the right controls and processes and | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
see how this situation develops. The images of Rome are sleeping rough | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
have fuelled already high public concern. The government is also | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
promising new powers to remove beggars and a new minimum earnings | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
threshold before anyone can claim income support. It is public concern | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
about immigration which is forcing all the main parties to think again. | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
The Prime Minister is even saying that he wants to change the basis of | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
the EU. The idea that anyone from any country can work anywhere, | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
whether they are Polish plumber, a Romanian architect or a Brit who | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
fancies working on the Costa Blanca. I think people can now see that when | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
you countries join, if they have radically different wage rates, | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
radically different economies in terms of scale than ours, you will | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
get these mass movements of people. It is not right for our own country | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
and it is not right for those countries. In Brussels, one EU | :04:45. | :04:52. | |
commissioner said Britain was in danger of being seen as the nasty | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
country. David Cameron will need the support of other European capitals | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
if he's to a fundamental principle. Prime Minister Cameron called me | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
yesterday informing me about the intentions he have on these issues | :05:06. | :05:13. | |
about freedom of movement. And I underlined to Prime Minister Cameron | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
that free movement is a fundamental treaty principle which must be | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
upheld. It is a sign of The Times that Labour's main criticism was | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
today that government had been too slow to act. We are glad the Prime | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
Minister has adopted our proposals on benefit restrictions but they | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
should not have delayed this for eight months so they will not be in | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
place by January, and it is not enough. They need to take action | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
over jobs and wages now. Many Romanians and Bulgarians have | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
already made the journey here. They are self-employed or they have got | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
work permits. What today's announcement is about is trying to | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
limit the numbers who follow. You have been Prime Minister for more | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
than three years and we are now scarcely more than a month from this | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
deadline. This makes a panic, doesn't it? It has taken some time | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
to turn this situation around. On becoming Prime Minister, we extended | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
the transitional controls on Romania and Bulgaria from five to seven | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
years. We put in place a migration cap for outside the European Union. | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
We tore up the last of men's hopeless that of measures. If you | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
are saying, is there more that needs to be done? Yes, there is and I am | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
doing it. There is more to be done, he says, but there are just 35 days | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
to do it. In recent years, Boston in | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
Lincolnshire has been one of the areas that's experienced high levels | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
of immigration from Eastern Europe. The market town is thought to have | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
the largest proportion of non-British European passport | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
holders outside London. Our home editor Mark Easton has been to | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
Boston to look at the impact of a decade of change. | :06:52. | :07:02. | |
Boston, an agent Lincolnshire town, transformed by rapid and significant | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
immigration from Eastern Europe. What lessons from the fence as the | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
Prime Minister promises action ahead of increased immigration from | :07:09. | :07:17. | |
Romania and Bulgaria. One local school now has two thirds of pupils | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
from migrant households. Exam results are excellent here and it is | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
seen as a model of good practice, but the prospect of more immigration | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
without extra resources is a concern. Generally, we are full so | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
when we are talking about the loss of all migration of Romanian or | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
Bulgarian children, actually, as a school we have not got any places to | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
give them at this point. What will happen? That is a good question! | :07:44. | :07:51. | |
Police conduct regular community tension assessments, identifying | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
hotspots where trouble might flare. Officers admit they were too | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
optimistic about the impact immigration would have. We did have | :07:59. | :08:06. | |
our head in the sand a bit. That was down to the fact we were not seeing | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
the immigration coming in. It was the speed of change which locals | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
found disconcerting. In 2001, virtually everyone in Boston was | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
white British. Ten years later and it was just 84%, a dramatic cultural | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
shift which saw tensions spill over into protest. Stand up for this | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
country and the English people who live in it. A peaceful demonstration | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
a year ago highlighted the concerns that the government nationally is | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
keen to respond to today. But the man behind the protest is warning | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
that patience is wearing thin. I think it is about time the | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
government had a look around to see what they have done to this country, | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
to see the problems which have been caused by the first wave of | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
immigration from Poland, Latvia and Lithuania and say we have got | :08:56. | :09:02. | |
enough, we cannot cope any more. Liliana and her family RNA names who | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
have lived in Boston for ten years. She is a senior NHS nurse who finds | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
the media portrayal of her countryfolk disturbing. I can take | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
you to all of my remaining friends here in Boston who are social | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
workers and nurses and you will see they are very good people. They have | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
kids, we go to the church every Sunday. Boston is exceptional but | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
lessons may apply elsewhere. Economic immigration has probably | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
boosted the town but culturally, rapid change has made this place | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
uneasy. In a moment we'll talk to our | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
political editor Nick Robinson in Downing Street, but first let's | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
cross to Brussels and join our Europe editor Gavin Hewitt. Talk | :09:44. | :09:52. | |
about how these measures compare with other countries. Firstly, a day | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
of strong comment, Britain is a nasty country, hysteria in the UK, | :09:58. | :10:05. | |
one MP accusing David Cameron of internationalist rhetoric. The big | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
question is whether these new restrictions on the mind PE you | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
rules. In the phone conversation between the president of the | :10:15. | :10:16. | |
European Commission and David Cameron, he underlined that freedom | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
of movement was a core EU principle and had to be upheld. Any new | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
legislation coming out of London will be scrutinised very closely. It | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
is not just Britain which is agonising over all of this. Germany | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
overnight has a new coalition and one of their key commitments is to | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
lower incentives for what they call benefits tourism. And France is also | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
looking at other rules for temporary workers crossing borders. But both | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
those countries do not want to challenge the fundamental principle | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
of freedom of movement. Thank you. We will turn to Nick in Downing | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
Street. What was your view of the Prime Minister's approach? What the | :11:06. | :11:11. | |
Prime Minister thinks is whether or not they're actually turns out to be | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
a crisis with tens of thousands of Bulgarians and Romanians coming to | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
this country next year, there will appear to be a crisis week in, week | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
out, as the media looks for one and tries to create one. The phone-ins | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
reflect public anxiety. I think his calculation is one other thing as | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
well. UKIP is breathing down the neck of mainstream politicians, not | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
least with the European elections next year. They have a simple | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
message, if you do not want this European immigration, get out of | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
Europe. I think what he is trying to do with the benefit changes is send | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
a signal. There is no great claim that it will make a huge amount of | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
difference but it sends a signal overseas and at home that the | :11:54. | :11:59. | |
government is serious. The biggest signal he is trying to say is this | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
is the change I could make in Europe if you re-elect me, if I get a | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
referendum, if I can change the rules on immigration at European | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
level. You are getting immigration, Europe and the future of content of | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
Number Ten all that up together. Dashmack the future of the occupant | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
of Number Ten all wrapped up together. | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
The chairman of Royal Bank of Scotland, Sir Philip Hampton, has | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
promised a full investigation into claims that his bank forced some | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
small companies out of business in order to seize their assets. The | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
Serious Fraud Office is considering its own inquiry into the | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
allegations. Sir Philip has given his first interview since the claims | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
were made to our business editor Robert Peston. | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
More British businesses borrow from Royal Bank Of Scotland than any | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
other bank. But RBS is accused not of nurturing these business | :12:49. | :12:50. | |
customers, but of snuffing them out his seize their assets on the cheap. | :12:51. | :13:02. | |
The regulators are looking at whether or not there was a | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
systematic attempt to fleece companies, frankly that would be | :13:06. | :13:12. | |
tantamount to fraud, is there any evidence of it? The heart of our | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
relationship with customers is trust. That is what we try to do. | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
All of our long-term interests are tied up with keeping the interest | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
and trust of our customers. If these allegations are true they are | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
extremely serious and that is why we are going to take investigation of | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
them extremely seriously. In the boom years RBS went on a crazy | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
lending binge. Since the rest the macro -- since the recession of 2008 | :13:40. | :13:52. | |
it has had problems. Some companies complain of brutal treatment or | :13:53. | :13:59. | |
worse. Allegedly, the much worse was dealt out by RBS to a maker of | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
software for touch-screen tills. There is no way out, there is no | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
escape. Within weeks or months, you will find your business has been | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
asset stripped. The company has been put into administration and the | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
assets sold to either outside parties who work closely with RBS on | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
these transactions or RBS even sell the assets to subsidiaries of their | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
own that they wholly own at a deep discount. RBS said it investigated | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
Neil Mitchell's case and does not think it behaved wrongly but Mr | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
Mitchell has taken his complaint to the Serious Fraud Office. The charge | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
of mugging frail companies is just the latest allegation of wrongdoing | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
by our big banks which includes rigging interest rates, minute | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
plating currencies, mis-selling insurance and forcing products on | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
small business. But why is it so many bankers do not seem to know the | :15:02. | :15:10. | |
difference between right and wrong? Sometimes industries can move in | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
herds, that was the case in the banking industry. There is comfort | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
in the herd, you don't think you don't think you're doing anything | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
wrong if it is moving in the wrong direction. The majority of these big | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
scandals that the banking industry has been facing in recent years | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
still reflect the poor risk control and attitudes to customers in the | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
run-up to the crisis. Banks as a stampeding herd? Many would say so | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
and that would imply that if RBS has been duffing up vulnerable | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
companies, so, too, probably have the other banks. | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
The former Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, has been expelled | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
from parliament with immediate effect because of his conviction for | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
tax fraud. He told crowds of supporters outside his residence in | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
Rome that he would not be leaving politics, but he is now banned from | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
taking part in any general election for six years. He could face arrest | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
over other criminal cases. A man has been found guilty of | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
murdering a family of four after he lost a legal dispute over their | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
shared is Ms. Northampton Crown Court was told that the man had | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
stabbed to death his former is Ms partners and two daughters in an act | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
of cold-blooded revenge. He was then able to go on the end for more than | :16:29. | :16:36. | |
a year because of police mistakes. For Axiang Du, the day of the royal | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
wedding was a day for revenge. He travelled to Northampton armed with | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
a knife, and murdered a family of four. These were his victims. Jeff | :16:45. | :16:52. | |
Ding, a University leg, and his wife, Helen. He also killed their | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
two daughters, 18-year-old Xing and 12-year-old Alice. Today, Helen's | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
relatives who had travelled from China were in court to see Axiang Du | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
convicted of murder. During the whole trial, we listened with the | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
sorrow and pain. Finally, the verdict is murder. Axiang Du will | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
get what he deserves. Axiang Du had gone into business with the family | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
but their relationship turns sour, after years of legal disputes with | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
them he was left with debts of nearly ?90,000. On the day of the | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
murders, he took a bus and headed to the family home. The prosecution | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
said Axiang Du carried out the murders with ruthless efficiency. He | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
stabbed the two adults in the kitchen, then he went upstairs and | :17:44. | :17:49. | |
attacked their daughters. To find four people from the same family | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
massacred in their own home was horrendous in itself. To find two of | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
those people were young females, the daughters of the household, I find | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
that unforgivable. During the attack, a 999 call was made from | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
12-year-old Alice's mobile. Screams were heard and the police | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
responded. But they went to the wrong address. No one knows what | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
would have happened if they had acted differently. The victims' | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
bodies were not discovered until two days later. Between them they had | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
suffered a total of 51 stab wounds. More than a year later, Axiang Du | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
was tracked down living rough on a building site in Morocco. He | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
admitted killing the family but claimed he was suffering mental | :18:36. | :18:39. | |
illness and guilty only of manslaughter. Today, the jury | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
decided this was a man who wanted to avenge himself, who planned and | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
carried out the murder of a whole family. | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
The urgent problem of getting venues ready for next year's World Cup | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
finals in Brazil has been highlighted again by the deaths of | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
two people at a stadium in Sao Paulo. A crane collapsed at the | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
Corinthians Stadium. One of the grandstand has been damaged. We | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
reported on FIFA's warning that the Brazilians were struggling to meet | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
their deadlines and the tournament is just seven months away. | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
It could hardly be worse news for Brazil. Two workers, both in their | :19:20. | :19:25. | |
40s, killed and several injured at the Corinthians Stadium in Sao | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
Paulo. A brand-new ground where the host nation is due to kick off next | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
year's World Cup was a scene of twisted metal after a huge crane | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
crashed into part of the roof. We don't want to know about FIFA, we | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
don't want to know about anything, we are worried about the families. | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
Earlier this week, the BBC revealed the huge pressure Brazil is under to | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
get its 12 World Cup stadiums ready by FIFA's December deadline. In this | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
northern city where they are working 24 hours a day, we saw exhausted | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
workers sleeping between shifts, but others unable to finish jobs because | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
of the torrential rain. TRANSLATION: Now we have teams working day and | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
night to finish the structure. When we conclude this part, we will go | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
back to a normal day shift. He situation at some stadiums is | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
critical. Building standards are good but as they try team took the | :20:22. | :20:28. | |
cup -- try to be the clock, concerns are there risks may be taken FIFA is | :20:29. | :20:40. | |
in an impossible situation, having insisted all stadiums must be | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
finished by the 5th of December. Local officials here acknowledge | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
their stadiums will not be -- their stadium will not be ready until the | :20:51. | :20:53. | |
middle of January at the earliest. It is not clear how this latest | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
setback will affect the tournament programme. Local officials reject | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
any suggestion that the opening game might have to be moved elsewhere. | :21:02. | :21:08. | |
The coalition government is apparently to commission a review | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
into plain cigarette packaging in England. Details are still coming in | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
this evening. What have you found out? In July, the government said | :21:17. | :21:23. | |
they would not introduce immediately legislation to have plain packaging | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
for cigarettes, getting rid of the advertising and logos. Labour | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
accused them of being in the pockets of big Tobacco. The government will | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
try to neutralise that attack. The Times says the government will | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
introduce legislation for plain packaging in England before the next | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
election. I understand what will be announced tomorrow is a review into | :21:45. | :21:51. | |
evidence in Australia. It will report in March and the government | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
will be able to quickly bring in plain packaging after that. | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
In July this year, a disabled man living in Bristol was wrongly | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
identified as a paedophile. He was beaten and his body set on fire. | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
Tomorrow, the two men as possible for Bijan Ebrahimi's death will be | :22:14. | :22:17. | |
sentenced. Mr Ibrahim E's family have spoken for the first time about | :22:18. | :22:28. | |
the horror suffered. Bijan Ebrahimi came to Britain | :22:29. | :22:35. | |
expecting safety, as a refugee from Iran. He lived alone in this council | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
flat. In July he was kicked to death and his body burned, because | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
neighbours believed he was a paedophile. Police say was an | :22:44. | :22:50. | |
innocent man. Losing someone in such a way, it is unimaginable. You | :22:51. | :22:58. | |
never, ever thought that anyone could do such a barbaric act. | :22:59. | :23:04. | |
Tomorrow, Lee James, who lived just a couple of doors from Bijan | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
Ebrahimi, will be sentenced for murder. Another neighbour, Stephen | :23:09. | :23:15. | |
Norley, has admitted assisting him. The family want people to understand | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
the brutality of what happened that night. The CCTV footage is shocking. | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
You can see the guilty pair moments after Bijan Ebrahimi was killed. His | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
body was doused with white spirit and then set alight. This is the | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
spot where Bijan Ebrahimi's body was burned. Just around the corner from | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
his flat. His family say the sentencing tomorrow is just the | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
start of their campaign for justice. They also want to know what help he | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
was given by the authorities in the days before he was murdered. While | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
all his relatives were away and out of the country. We made so many | :23:55. | :24:01. | |
calls -- he made so many calls, we want to know what calls he made and | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
we want to know why, if he asked for help, why they didn't give him the | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
help that he deserved. The Independent Police Complaints | :24:12. | :24:13. | |
Commission is investigating the way the case was handled. Restore city | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
council is also carrying out an enquiry -- Bristol city council is | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
all ready carrying out a inquiry. When you heard that he was failed, | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
what was your reaction? Disappointed, frustrated and sad. | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
How could someone like him, or anyone else, the failed by so many | :24:38. | :24:45. | |
agencies? Bijan Ebrahimi's family say he was subjected to years of | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
abuse over his race and disability, even before the false paedophile | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
rumours began. They believe his murder was a hate crime. | :24:54. | :25:06. | |
Both Manchester clubs have been in Champions League action tonight. | :25:07. | :25:14. | |
United were licking to reach the last 16 as they travel to Bayer | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
Leverkusen. Manchester City were at home to Viktoria Plzen. | :25:21. | :25:26. | |
There have been few strolls for Manchester United this season. At | :25:27. | :25:28. | |
times, stumbling, tonight, simply stunning. Bayer Leverkusen were | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
blown away. Antonio Valencia prodding United in front. When Wayne | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
Rooney's fizzing free kick was flicked on by an opponent's head, | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
United were knocking on the knockout stages by half-time. Even better was | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
to come. Goals from Jonny Evans and Chris Smalling ensured there would | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
be no need for Fergie time, before Nani rounded things off | :25:57. | :26:05. | |
spectacularly. They will join the already qualified Manchester City. | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
Viktoria Plzen twice equalised. But two late goals from Negredo and | :26:11. | :26:20. | |
Dzeko insured a 4-2 win on a night when Manchester had plenty to | :26:21. | :26:21. | |
celebrate. | :26:22. | :26:24. |
