Tonight at Ten - harrowing testimony from a survivor

:00:00.:00:00.

Lying wounded on the dance floor - unable to move - he'd been shot

:00:07.:00:13.

Speaking from hospital, Angel Colon described how he played

:00:14.:00:19.

dead when the gunman returned and started shooting again.

:00:20.:00:23.

I look over and he shoots the girl next to me and I'm just laying down,

:00:24.:00:31.

I'm thinking, I'm next, I'm dead.

:00:32.:00:35.

Tonight Barack Obama has attacked Donald Trump's

:00:36.:00:37.

response to the shootings, saying his proposed ban on Muslims

:00:38.:00:40.

travelling to America would play into the hands of the extremists.

:00:41.:00:45.

Looking for trouble - as a Russian fan films his own

:00:46.:00:51.

fistfight, Russia is warned it will be thrown out of the Euros

:00:52.:00:54.

Labour warns the NHS is at risk if the UK leaves the European Union

:00:55.:01:00.

but admits more needs to be done to control immigration.

:01:01.:01:05.

How a gifted teenager who took his own life

:01:06.:01:07.

was failed by an underfunded mental health service.

:01:08.:01:11.

And a new landmark for London - we take a look at the extension

:01:12.:01:15.

Coming up at 10.30 on BBC News: I'll be live in Paris with Euro 2016

:01:16.:01:22.

Sportsday with action from today's two matches in France.

:01:23.:01:49.

A man who was shot several times - but survived yesterday's attack

:01:50.:01:57.

on a gay nightclub in Orlando - has spoken for the first time about

:01:58.:02:00.

It is still cordoned off by the police.

:02:01.:02:13.

Angel Colon - speaking from hospital - said he played dead

:02:14.:02:14.

while the gunman Omar Mateen shot people lying on the floor.

:02:15.:02:25.

Today it emerged that Omar Mateen had visited the gay club himself

:02:26.:02:29.

49 people were killed in the attack and six remain

:02:30.:02:34.

This first report from our North America Editor, Jon Sopel.

:02:35.:02:42.

Stories of horror and survival don't come much more vivid than this.

:02:43.:02:47.

At a hospital news conference, Angel Colon, who was shot

:02:48.:02:49.

three times in the leg, was applauded from his wheelchair

:02:50.:02:53.

as he spoke about the nightmare that unfolded in the Pulse nightclub.

:02:54.:02:58.

Everyone started running everywhere, I got trampled over,

:02:59.:03:05.

and I shattered and broke my bones on my left leg, so by this time

:03:06.:03:10.

All I could do was lay down while everyone was running on top

:03:11.:03:15.

of me, trying to get to where they had to be.

:03:16.:03:21.

And all I could hear was the shotgun, one after another,

:03:22.:03:24.

He is shooting everyone that is already dead on the floor

:03:25.:03:29.

I was able to peek over and I can just see him shooting at everyone.

:03:30.:03:38.

And I can hear the shotguns closer and I look over and he shoots

:03:39.:03:42.

And I'm there lying down, I'm thinking, I'm next, I'm dead.

:03:43.:03:51.

So I don't know how but, by the glory of God,

:03:52.:03:54.

he shoots towards my head but it hits my hand and then he shoots me

:03:55.:03:59.

again and it hits the side of my hip.

:04:00.:04:03.

I was prepared to just stay there laying down so he won't know

:04:04.:04:09.

The hospital, two blocks away from the nightclub,

:04:10.:04:13.

had recently gone through a mass shooting incident rehearsal.

:04:14.:04:16.

We are used to seeing gunshot wounds, we are used to seeing

:04:17.:04:21.

a multitude of injuries each and every night, but this

:04:22.:04:24.

was somewhat of a surreal experience, you know,

:04:25.:04:29.

we were just given patient after patient after patient.

:04:30.:04:38.

Police have been questioning Omar Mateen's wife over

:04:39.:04:41.

whether she was guilty of any criminal offences.

:04:42.:04:44.

She's reported to have told the authorities that she tried

:04:45.:04:48.

to talk her husband out of launching the attack.

:04:49.:04:50.

In the immediate aftermath of the shooting at the Pulse

:04:51.:04:52.

nightclub, a lot of people asked why here, why Orlando, when there

:04:53.:04:55.

were so many other bigger, better known clubs closer

:04:56.:04:58.

Now it's emerged he was a regular patron here

:04:59.:05:03.

When he first contacted me he was saying, asking what club,

:05:04.:05:10.

in his words, like what clubs are popping and things of that sort?

:05:11.:05:15.

I remember telling him, you can just look it up online

:05:16.:05:19.

On the weekends sometimes he would be there.

:05:20.:05:27.

Sometimes he would miss a couple of weeks and come in again.

:05:28.:05:30.

Irrespective of the motive, nothing changes the maths.

:05:31.:05:38.

49 people dead and many others with life-affecting injuries.

:05:39.:05:44.

Tonight, Barack Obama has attacked Donald Trump's response

:05:45.:05:52.

to the Orlando shootings, saying Mr Trump's proposal to ban

:05:53.:05:55.

Muslims from travelling to America would only fuel extremist propaganda

:05:56.:05:59.

A visibly angry Mr Obama said the United States was founded

:06:00.:06:08.

on values such as freedom of religion and abandoning

:06:09.:06:11.

them would hand victory to the terrorists.

:06:12.:06:15.

Nick Bryant reports from the White House.

:06:16.:06:18.

Barack Obama is often criticised for being emotionally aloof,

:06:19.:06:22.

Today, after convening his National Security Council,

:06:23.:06:28.

his anger came to the fore, as he delivered this

:06:29.:06:31.

presidential rebuttal, a general at his side,

:06:32.:06:35.

to Donald Trump and his demand for a ban on Muslims entering America.

:06:36.:06:40.

We now have proposals from the presumptive Republican

:06:41.:06:43.

nominee for President of the United States to bar

:06:44.:06:46.

all Muslims from emigrating to America.

:06:47.:06:53.

We hear language that singles out immigrants and suggests entire

:06:54.:06:58.

religious communities are complicit in violence.

:06:59.:07:06.

Mr Obama avoided uttering Donald Trump's name,

:07:07.:07:13.

but the billionaire's demand after the Orlando massacre,

:07:14.:07:16.

that he should resign as President for refusing to use the term

:07:17.:07:20.

"radical Islam" has clearly enraged him.

:07:21.:07:23.

There is no magic to the phrase "radical Islam".

:07:24.:07:28.

And the reason I am careful about how I describe this threat has

:07:29.:07:39.

nothing to do with political correctness and everything to do

:07:40.:07:42.

From Donald Trump, a tough-worded response that questioned

:07:43.:07:50.

"He claims to know our enemy and yet he continues to prioritise our enemy

:07:51.:07:56.

over our allies and, for that matter,

:07:57.:07:58.

When I am President, it will always be America first."

:07:59.:08:05.

It is hard to recall a sitting President intervening quite

:08:06.:08:07.

so forcefully in the battle to succeed him.

:08:08.:08:10.

This was an attempt by Mr Obama to use the full power of his office,

:08:11.:08:14.

to prevent Donald Trump from ever occupying it.

:08:15.:08:18.

The attack on the Pulse nightclub in Orlando has shocked America,

:08:19.:08:28.

clearly an act of terrorism, it was also a hate crime,

:08:29.:08:32.

perpetrated against the LGBT community.

:08:33.:08:40.

I have been trying to find out what the shock of the shootings meant to

:08:41.:08:47.

so many people who, for a long time, have been on the margins of society.

:08:48.:08:54.

They're a staple of suburban America, the Stars and Stripes,

:08:55.:08:56.

shorthand for certain values, a love of country.

:08:57.:08:58.

In Orlando this week you will also see this, and this,

:08:59.:09:00.

and they symbolise a love of country, too.

:09:01.:09:03.

Billy Wilks has lived here for 28 years and proud to be gay.

:09:04.:09:07.

I had an American flag out, but I changed it and put that up

:09:08.:09:11.

It made me feel like I was paying respect to those that

:09:12.:09:19.

It is at this painful moment that those who are LGBT can reflect

:09:20.:09:25.

The killer, Omar Mateen, brought carnage here

:09:26.:09:31.

because he hated society's embrace of the community.

:09:32.:09:35.

Some are now questioning God's acceptance.

:09:36.:09:39.

Reverend Terri Steed Pierce has been out for nearly 30 years.

:09:40.:09:43.

I will continue to tell those people who come and question

:09:44.:09:47.

that God is here with us and wants better for us.

:09:48.:09:51.

The killer tried to do that, you think he tried to force

:09:52.:09:53.

He was trying to force us back in the closet that was never meant

:09:54.:09:57.

for us and we will stand tall and we will stand proud

:09:58.:09:59.

As a city mourns, President Obama says the attack on the gay nightclub

:10:00.:10:05.

The outpouring of horror and grief nationwide is testament to that.

:10:06.:10:18.

What we heard here today was powerful first-hand testimony from

:10:19.:10:25.

survivors. We also heard about the professionalism of those doctors who

:10:26.:10:28.

tried to save so many people injured as a result of the shooting. Some

:10:29.:10:31.

people have been saying what was exhibited on that night were two

:10:32.:10:36.

sides of humanity - the best and the worst. And, frankly, as far as the

:10:37.:10:41.

community here is concerned, it will always be the better half of

:10:42.:10:45.

mankind, of humanity, that will prevail. With that, back to you,

:10:46.:10:47.

Fiona. Let's take a look at

:10:48.:10:49.

today's other news now. Thousands of extra police

:10:50.:10:51.

are being sent to the city of Lille in Northern France amid fears

:10:52.:10:55.

and authorities hope an alcohol ban that's come into force

:13:50.:13:51.

on the streets of the city will help calm tensions,

:13:52.:13:54.

but the sport is holding its breath. England will leave their base here

:13:55.:14:07.

tomorrow for that big match against Wales in Lens on Thursday. They, of

:14:08.:14:12.

course, will be aware that they as well face expulsion from Euro 2016

:14:13.:14:17.

if the behaviour of their fans doesn't improve. For Russia, this is

:14:18.:14:20.

very serious. They are in the last-chance saloon. That was very

:14:21.:14:24.

much a final warning for them from Uefa today. This does have to be put

:14:25.:14:30.

into context. It is only a small minority who are misbehaving, games

:14:31.:14:34.

continue, two more today, without any problem. There is no doubt that

:14:35.:14:39.

in Lens and in Lille there is huge pressure building now for the French

:14:40.:14:44.

authorities, for Uefa, for England and especially for Russia, for whom

:14:45.:14:47.

being kicked out of this tournament would be unthinkable when you

:14:48.:14:50.

consider that they are the hosts of the next World Cup. Dan Roan, thank

:14:51.:14:53.

you. Labour's intensified its effort

:14:54.:14:57.

to get its supporters to throw their weight behind a vote

:14:58.:14:58.

to stay in the EU. The party's leader, Jeremy Corbyn,

:14:59.:15:10.

flanked by his Shadow Cabinet and trade union bosses,

claimed the NHS would be safer His deputy also said more needed

of Cameron's Government I want to say to them,

:15:43.:15:44.

the stakes are too high on that. If you vote to punish

:15:45.:15:48.

David Cameron in this referendum, For the last decade,

:15:49.:15:51.

I would say that immigration has been the backdrop to every election

:15:52.:15:55.

we've had in Britain. You know, woe betide

:15:56.:15:58.

politicians that don't listen I think what we have

:15:59.:16:00.

to reassure people of, on Thursday, 23rd June,

:16:01.:16:05.

that isn't the end of the reform You know, I think a future Europe

:16:06.:16:10.

will have to look at things like the free

:16:11.:16:14.

movement of labour rules. To be clear, you're saying that

:16:15.:16:18.

Labour would have to look at a way I think it's very likely

:16:19.:16:21.

that a Labour government would want to reform

:16:22.:16:26.

the European Union and, yes, if we get to a general election

:16:27.:16:29.

in 2020, of course we would have They're giving us a pretty clear

:16:30.:16:32.

signal in this referendum. The campaign's hard

:16:33.:16:39.

going for Labour. Voters have been confused

:16:40.:16:41.

about whether it's A hastily planned get-together

:16:44.:16:53.

isn't necessarily what Jeremy and the rest of the EU

:16:54.:16:57.

is unlikely to agree. Nearly all of Labour, though,

:16:58.:17:06.

does agree - you should From Land's End to John O'Groats,

:17:07.:17:08.

from Norwich over to North Wales, This does feel like it has been

:17:09.:17:19.

a last-minute scramble But despite many voters'

:17:20.:17:23.

concerns about immigration, many MPs do believe there

:17:24.:17:27.

are still enough undecided voters that this last-minute push

:17:28.:17:29.

could make the difference. Labour wanted to talk

:17:30.:17:33.

about the NHS today. A vote to Leave is a vote that

:17:34.:17:37.

will put the NHS in jeopardy, in the hands of those

:17:38.:17:40.

who want to break it up. But the handful of Labour MPs

:17:41.:17:43.

who want out believe Labour's leadership cannot face

:17:44.:17:47.

up to the big issue, This has been wonderful,

:17:48.:17:52.

this globalisation moves throughout the world,

:17:53.:17:57.

for the rich. But if you're at the bottom

:17:58.:18:00.

of the pile, you've paid the price. But many on the left believe exit

:18:01.:18:03.

would be the far greater cost. The morning after the referendum,

:18:04.:18:07.

if we've voted to leave, It's going to be Nigel Farage,

:18:08.:18:10.

Boris Johnson and a resurgent would spell disaster for the trade

:18:11.:18:19.

union members I represent and working-class communities

:18:20.:18:22.

across the UK. It's late, but Labour is facing up

:18:23.:18:25.

to this difficult fight. This party, as well as the

:18:26.:18:29.

Government, is waiting to be judged. Stock markets across Europe fell

:18:30.:18:32.

today ahead of the referendum. The FTSE 100 suffered its steepest

:18:33.:18:37.

daily fall since mid-February, The pound also fell

:18:38.:18:40.

against the dollar and the euro. Britain has won a European court

:18:41.:18:46.

case upholding its right to withhold child benefit and child tax credits

:18:47.:18:50.

from some EU migrants. Remain campaigners say

:18:51.:18:53.

the European Court of Justice ruling shows the UK can act to prevent

:18:54.:18:55.

so-called benefit tourism But Vote Leave said it was "absurd"

:18:56.:18:59.

that the UK had to engage in lengthy legal battles

:19:00.:19:06.

with the Luxembourg court. The Chairman of John Lewis has told

:19:07.:19:10.

employees that leaving the EU would have an "adverse" impact

:19:11.:19:13.

on consumer confidence which could last for five years

:19:14.:19:16.

and would probably lead Sir Charlie Mayfield said

:19:17.:19:18.

the company wasn't taking sides in the referendum,

:19:19.:19:23.

but he believed the economy would be The Leave campaign has

:19:24.:19:26.

insisted that any group which currently receive EU funds,

:19:27.:19:35.

such as farming and universities, will continue to do

:19:36.:19:37.

so in the event of a vote to leave But their claims have been dismissed

:19:38.:19:40.

as fantasy by Remain campaigners, who've also pointed out that any

:19:41.:19:49.

such decision would be up Our deputy political correspondent,

:19:50.:19:52.

John Pienaar, reports. Farms get back some of the cash

:19:53.:19:54.

Britain pours into the EU, now ministers in the Leave campaign

:19:55.:19:59.

say they'll keep it all So no threat to science funding,

:20:00.:20:01.

which also gets EU grants or some Leavers can't officially promise

:20:02.:20:06.

to spend anything, they're not running the Government,

:20:07.:20:11.

but they're saying it anyway. Well, we're being very clear today

:20:12.:20:13.

that those farmers, universities, scientists will not lose out

:20:14.:20:16.

when we choose to vote leave on the 23rd June and that we can

:20:17.:20:21.

spend the money that currently goes to Brussels on them

:20:22.:20:24.

and on our priorities. What if the economy slows down,

:20:25.:20:27.

because economies do slow down, how can you promise

:20:28.:20:30.

what you're promising? Our economy will grow when we leave

:20:31.:20:31.

Europe because of course we'll have new business opportunities,

:20:32.:20:37.

new trading opportunities. That's if you're optimistic leaving

:20:38.:20:40.

would help and not hurt the economy Well, EU spending in Britain added

:20:41.:20:44.

up to about ?6 billion last year. Payments to farms

:20:45.:20:50.

were about ?3 billion. Development aid for roads say

:20:51.:20:55.

and bridges delivered ?1.1 billion. The European Social Fund,

:20:56.:20:59.

helping people gain skills, including former prisoners,

:21:00.:21:03.

added up to ?263 million. So that's the cash we pay

:21:04.:21:06.

to go before polling day, the EU referendum is increasingly

being seen as an argument Throughout the week we're taking

stock of the main themes Tonight, our home editor,

:28:04.:28:07.

Mark Easton, reports from the Kent coast on how immigration has become

:28:08.:28:17.

a key issue of the referendum. Listening to the voices of Britain

:28:18.:28:20.

over the last couple of months, it's clear that many voters don't

:28:21.:28:23.

see this as a referendum They seem to be getting jobs just

:28:24.:28:26.

like thrown at them, where we can't Nor is it about our trading

relationship with our If I go to our largest Tescos here,

:28:31.:28:34.

there are two long aisles This, for many, is a

:28:35.:28:38.

referendum on immigration. It's not really about how much child

:28:39.:28:44.

benefit a Latvian migrant gets or even whether we're

:28:45.:28:48.

better off in or out, it's about something

:28:49.:28:51.

more fundamental. It's about what kind

:28:52.:28:54.

of country we want to be. Dymchurch, in Kent, is reminiscent

:28:55.:28:58.

of a Britain that seems It hit the news recently

:28:59.:29:00.

when a group of Albanians were rescued from an inflatable

:29:01.:29:09.

dinghy just offshore. Two men have since been charged

:29:10.:29:12.

with people smuggling. The story has become a metaphor

:29:13.:29:15.

for the sense that the UK, its heritage and its way of life

:29:16.:29:18.

are under foreign attack. I'm fed up with these

:29:19.:29:21.

immigrants coming over just You know, they're just changing

:29:22.:29:24.

the culture of our country. The real English, British people

:29:25.:29:30.

seem to be getting They can't say anything

:29:31.:29:33.

without getting accused The little railway that runs

:29:34.:29:39.

from Dymchurch to Dungeness was requisitioned by the War

:29:40.:29:49.

Department in the 1940s to defend Although EU immigration has

:29:50.:29:52.

barely touched this town, the campaign has become dominated

:29:53.:30:05.

by claim and counter claim over the threat

:30:06.:30:07.

from foreigners coming to Britain. In the middle of the campaign,

:30:08.:30:09.

of course, we got those official figures showing that last year

:30:10.:30:12.

270,000 EU citizens came to live in Britain and that's pushed

:30:13.:30:15.

immigration to the number one public That's clearly a boost for the Leave

:30:16.:30:20.

campaign because many people believe that if we vote Out,

:30:21.:30:25.

it'll stop the foreigners coming in. It would, in theory,

:30:26.:30:28.

mean EU citizens were subject to the same controls as migrants

:30:29.:30:34.

from outside the EU. However, that wouldn't necessarily

:30:35.:30:41.

mean big reductions. Afterall, non-EU immigration

:30:42.:30:43.

still exceeds immigration Because many immigrants

:30:44.:30:46.

benefit Britain. We welcome tens of thousands every

:30:47.:30:50.

year because they enhance our way of life, they enreach us,

:30:51.:30:52.

financially and culturally. Whether we're in or out,

:30:53.:31:05.

we're not going to stop Those who really need it,

:31:06.:31:09.

we should have those Immigration, whether you're

:31:10.:31:13.

in or out, is still going to be an issue and it needs

:31:14.:31:17.

to be dealt with. The people who are wanting to stay

:31:18.:31:19.

in are probably going to deal with it a little bit more

:31:20.:31:22.

compassionately than Britain is known as a land

:31:23.:31:24.

of castles, symbols of our island heritage,

:31:25.:31:27.

stoutly defending our values. For many in Britain in 2016,

:31:28.:31:29.

this referendum is seen almost as a straight choice

:31:30.:31:33.

between protecting our tradition and our way of life

:31:34.:31:37.

and opening the gate In truth, the choice

:31:38.:31:39.

is not so stark. People may believe they can vote

:31:40.:31:46.

to stop immigration, but in the modern world you can't

:31:47.:31:48.

just pull up the draw bridge. It's already the most visited modern

:31:49.:31:51.

art museum in the world and this week the Tate Modern in London opens

:31:52.:32:04.

a ?260 million extension that'll greatly expand the range

:32:05.:32:07.

of work it can show. The art collection will be more

:32:08.:32:11.

diverse and will come It'll also introduce visitors

:32:12.:32:14.

to some less familiar artists. Our arts editor, Will Gompertz,

:32:15.:32:38.

has been taking a look. As extensions go, this

:32:39.:32:40.

is a whooper - a 10-storey high, 21,000 square meter,

:32:41.:32:43.

twisting pyramid, that's been clad in a lattice veil of bricks

:32:44.:32:44.

and attached to the rear More than anything else,

:32:45.:32:47.

we wanted to bring the old and It shouldn't feel like -

:32:48.:32:51.

that's the new, that's the old but, if you walk through the whole Tate,

:32:52.:32:55.

it should feel like one organism. We love the robustness,

:32:56.:32:58.

the solidity of the old industrial building and all these concrete

:32:59.:33:00.

pieces should remind you of the quality of that

:33:01.:33:02.

moment in history. Visitors will still be able

:33:03.:33:05.

to walk into this space, the iconic Turbine Hall,

:33:06.:33:07.

but now they'll have a decision to make - do they go right,

:33:08.:33:10.

into the old building, to see paintings by the likes

:33:11.:33:12.

of Picasso and Rothko or left, into the new building,

:33:13.:33:15.

to see work in many different media by artists they've

:33:16.:33:17.

probably never heard of? A curving concrete staircase leads

:33:18.:33:19.

to spacious galleries in which art from over 50 countries is exhibited,

:33:20.:33:22.

most of which has been Paintings are few and far between,

:33:23.:33:25.

but there's plenty to amuse. There's art you can interact with,

:33:26.:33:32.

such as this installation, where you're invited to get

:33:33.:33:35.

into the cage and have a lie down. There's a city made out of couscous

:33:36.:33:40.

that you can salivate over and there's performance art dotted

:33:41.:33:46.

throughout the building, especially down here,

:33:47.:33:50.

in its subterranean spaces. When Tate Modern opened in 2000,

:33:51.:33:58.

it proved to be a game-changer. Modern art was no longer written off

:33:59.:34:03.

as a bad joke and became Will this new building

:34:04.:34:08.

prove as influential? What I would love to see,

:34:09.:34:16.

in terms of changing the game, is a recognition of that bigger

:34:17.:34:19.

story that we're trying to tell. The story you're familiar

:34:20.:34:22.

with is principally the story of works of art made

:34:23.:34:24.

by white males in New York, Paris and London and the story that

:34:25.:34:27.

we're telling, in the new Tate Modern, is that it's a much bigger

:34:28.:34:30.

story and that women made a very significant contribution

:34:31.:34:34.

to that history. At the top of the building is a room

:34:35.:34:35.

with a view where you can look out over the skyline of London,

:34:36.:34:40.

which now boasts a new landmark. We're on the referendum road trip

:34:41.:34:42.

with our Newsnight truck. Tonight, we've parked

:34:43.:35:00.

in Middlesbrough - where Ukip are second in line -

:35:01.:35:05.

to find out if people think the EU
