:00:00. > :00:00.More armed police begin patrolling the streets of London

:00:07. > :00:10.after the recent terror attacks in Europe.

:00:11. > :00:12.They're the first of more than 1500 armed officers who'll eventually be

:00:13. > :00:19.deployed across the UK to reassure the public and act as a deterrent.

:00:20. > :00:22.We are seeing people that are determined to attack us.

:00:23. > :00:24.We've got to deal with that seriously, this is a

:00:25. > :00:38.With the UK threat level remaining at severe, we will ask how much

:00:39. > :00:42.safer the additional armed police will make us. Also tonight...

:00:43. > :00:47.Panic on board the Emirates flight that crash landed in Dubai.

:00:48. > :00:49.An extraordinary escape for 300 passengers and crew -

:00:50. > :00:52.moments before the plane burst into flames.

:00:53. > :00:54.The first interest rate cut for seven years is widely

:00:55. > :00:56.expected tomorrow - amid more signs the UK

:00:57. > :01:01.The 21-year-old from Swansea who says her father's

:01:02. > :01:04.imprisoned her in Saudi Arabia - the High Court orders him

:01:05. > :01:12.And the family who's landed ?61 million -

:01:13. > :01:16.all because of a mother's lucky feeling.

:01:17. > :01:19.And coming up in Sportsday on BBC News, Sohail Khan marks his first

:01:20. > :01:22.Test for five years with five wickets as Pakistan bowl England out

:01:23. > :01:46.for 297 on the opening day of the third Test at Edgbaston.

:01:47. > :01:50.The first of 600 additional armed police officers have begun

:01:51. > :01:53.patrolling the streets of London in response to the recent terror

:01:54. > :01:57.The Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe said

:01:58. > :02:01.there was no intelligence of an imminent attack,

:02:02. > :02:03.but it would be foolish to ignore what had happened

:02:04. > :02:10.In all, more than 1500 additional police marksmen will eventually be

:02:11. > :02:13.deployed across the UK - though it's claimed it could take up

:02:14. > :02:19.Our home affairs correspondent June Kelly reports.

:02:20. > :02:24.This is what the front line would look like in the face of an attack.

:02:25. > :02:25.These Scotland Yard marksmen have been trained

:02:26. > :02:30.They will keep moving forward even if one

:02:31. > :02:40.They'd be kitted up like this only if the capital was under attack.

:02:41. > :02:43.To get to a scene quickly, they travel in pairs on these bikes.

:02:44. > :02:46.We've been looking at the attack methodology of the terrorists

:02:47. > :02:47.on mainland Europe, in Paris and Brussels,

:02:48. > :02:51.and an essential part of our tactic is to respond as fast as possible.

:02:52. > :02:53.These bikes give us that best opportunity, along with an array

:02:54. > :02:58.From today, the first of 600 more armed officers will be

:02:59. > :03:04.The Met Police won't say exactly how many.

:03:05. > :03:07.The force put on this display to give an insight into how it's

:03:08. > :03:13.While stressing there is no change to everyday policing.

:03:14. > :03:16.This is not giving every police officer in Britain a gun.

:03:17. > :03:19.It's not about giving everybody even in the Met a gun.

:03:20. > :03:24.Still, less than 10% of our whole workforce

:03:25. > :03:29.Around the country, the plan is to put an extra 1500

:03:30. > :03:35.But there are questions about the time frame.

:03:36. > :03:38.When you're recruiting 1500, it's going to take a lot of time.

:03:39. > :03:41.You've got to find the resources, you've got to find the facilities

:03:42. > :03:46.I should think that it's going to take at least two years.

:03:47. > :03:49.In London, this will become a familiar sight.

:03:50. > :03:53.Vehicle checkpoints with armed officers in support.

:03:54. > :03:57.They'll be set up in different places on different days.

:03:58. > :04:00.So these are the sort of measures which we'll now see

:04:01. > :04:06.The Met hopes that they'll reassure rather than alarm the public.

:04:07. > :04:09.I feel more protected with police with guns than just walking

:04:10. > :04:12.with their hands in their pocket, you see what I mean?

:04:13. > :04:16.I think it might be a little unsettling, because it's something

:04:17. > :04:21.Sad, but that's the world we live in, isn't it?

:04:22. > :04:24.The latest European attack was the murder of a priest

:04:25. > :04:29.He was killed with a knife in what the intelligence agencies

:04:30. > :04:35.It illustrates the terrorists' range of tactics and how their targets

:04:36. > :04:40.might not be in the centre of a major city.

:04:41. > :04:43.In the UK, the increase in armed officers will be concentrated

:04:44. > :04:45.in the big cities, and there is concern that smaller

:04:46. > :04:52.Who would've thought that Rouen in northern France would be

:04:53. > :04:58.I don't know where the next attack's going to be,

:04:59. > :05:01.nobody knows where the next attack's going to be.

:05:02. > :05:06.People need to feel safe wherever they live.

:05:07. > :05:09.So as London police officers took to the river today, the challenge

:05:10. > :05:12.for counterterrorism chiefs nationally is how they can best

:05:13. > :05:22.The Metropolitan Police chief Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe has

:05:23. > :05:24.said it's not a question of if but when another terror

:05:25. > :05:30.So, will the deployment of more armed police on the streets

:05:31. > :05:32.of London and other cities make people any safer?

:05:33. > :05:37.Here's our security correspondent, Frank Gardner.

:05:38. > :05:40.Just one element in a whole interlocking

:05:41. > :05:48.array of measures aimed at preventing a terrorist attack.

:05:49. > :05:51.The security service MI5 gathers intelligence on up to 3000 known

:05:52. > :05:53.terror suspects and their associates.

:05:54. > :05:55.It works closely with GCHQ, the government's

:05:56. > :05:59.Their analysts are constantly trying to break into cryptic communications

:06:00. > :06:10.Increasingly, the British public have been phoning

:06:11. > :06:13.in tip-offs about suspicious or extremist behaviour.

:06:14. > :06:18.The 600 extra armed officers announced today will help

:06:19. > :06:21.with responding to an attack, but it comes at a cost.

:06:22. > :06:23.The bigger picture here is these officers are coming from

:06:24. > :06:26.normal patrolling, and that normal patrolling is also the community

:06:27. > :06:30.It is actually the community policing most likely to

:06:31. > :06:35.turn out the terrorists before they get to the point of attacking us.

:06:36. > :06:38.Bobbies on the beat may sound a bit old-fashioned, but if they

:06:39. > :06:42.disappeared it could increase the risk of a terrorist attack.

:06:43. > :06:43.And plans for those terror attacks keep

:06:44. > :06:48.The national terrorism threat level has been at severe now

:06:49. > :06:50.for the last two years, meaning a terrorist attack is thought highly

:06:51. > :07:01.A total of 50 attacks were filed between 2005 and 2015.

:07:02. > :07:05.Six of them were disrupted last year alone.

:07:06. > :07:08.In the 12 months to March this year there were 255 terror related

:07:09. > :07:12.It was the horrific attack in Mumbai in 2008 that made the

:07:13. > :07:18.government here radically boost police firepower.

:07:19. > :07:20.Meeting the threat from determined well armed gunmen

:07:21. > :07:26.like the ones who killed over 160 people in three days.

:07:27. > :07:28.Last November's multipronged attacks in

:07:29. > :07:36.If an attack happened here in Britain,

:07:37. > :07:39.say officers, it could happen in several places at once.

:07:40. > :07:41.Despite the current show of force on the

:07:42. > :07:42.streets, officials say there is still no

:07:43. > :07:43.intelligence to indicate an

:07:44. > :07:52.The first video has emerged tonight from on board the passenger plane

:07:53. > :07:56.which crash landed at Dubai Airport before bursting into flames.

:07:57. > :07:59.All 300 people on the Emirates Boeing 777 survived,

:08:00. > :08:02.but a firefighter was killed tackling the blaze.

:08:03. > :08:08.Our transport correspondent Richard Westcott reports.

:08:09. > :08:12.What must it have felt like to be on board this?

:08:13. > :08:14.A normal landing plunged into chaos as the aircraft skids along

:08:15. > :08:22.Incredibly, one passenger films the escape.

:08:23. > :08:27.Some people start getting their luggage down.

:08:28. > :08:30.The plane might have stopped, but these people are not safe.

:08:31. > :08:33.Realising the danger, one of the cabin crew shouts

:08:34. > :08:52.On the ground, another terrifying sight - fire.

:08:53. > :09:05.In the calm of the terminal, they say it came without warning.

:09:06. > :09:10.We had not heard any announcement or anything.

:09:11. > :09:24.All the people were shouting, the women and children,

:09:25. > :09:30.all the people were shouting, crying.

:09:31. > :09:34.A firefighter was killed putting out the blaze.

:09:35. > :09:36.The chairman of Emirates said everything seemed fine

:09:37. > :09:43.I think it was very much cleared to land at that point.

:09:44. > :09:53.Yet the plane did not seem to have its wheels down

:09:54. > :09:56.We don't know if that was a mechanical problem,

:09:57. > :10:00.Still, it is hard to believe all the passengers walked

:10:01. > :10:09.The service sector makes up around 75% of the UK economy and today

:10:10. > :10:13.a survey showed there's been a sharp drop in activity in the sector

:10:14. > :10:17.since Britain voted to leave the European Union.

:10:18. > :10:20.Tomorrow, the Bank of England meets and a cut in interest rates -

:10:21. > :10:23.the first in seven years - is on the cards.

:10:24. > :10:30.Our economics editor Kamal Ahmed joins me now in the studio.

:10:31. > :10:37.First of all, the survey on the service sector, it is looking at a

:10:38. > :10:41.four week period, could it be a short-term drop for the start of a

:10:42. > :10:46.long-term decline? I think probably a bit of both. This fall is

:10:47. > :10:50.dramatic, it has gone to the lowest level since 2009 in the teeth of the

:10:51. > :10:55.recession which followed the financial crisis. It is the biggest

:10:56. > :11:04.one-month drop since records began in 1996. It is certainly dramatic.

:11:05. > :11:06.There are some short-term factors that have affected the last four

:11:07. > :11:09.weeks since the referendum vote. First of all, of course, lots of

:11:10. > :11:16.businesses and consumers thought that Britain would God to remain in

:11:17. > :11:20.the EU, so that was the surprise. -- would've votes to remain in the EU.

:11:21. > :11:23.Then there was the political turmoil for a period after the Prime

:11:24. > :11:29.Minister resigned, it was not clear who would be the next PM. That has

:11:30. > :11:33.dissipated, we have a new Government with Theresa May as Prime Minister,

:11:34. > :11:37.so confidence could come back. One long-term issue will not be resolved

:11:38. > :11:45.quickly, our relationship with the rest of the European Union, our

:11:46. > :11:47.biggest trading partner. That could take years to settle, so the

:11:48. > :11:52.uncertainty will remain. Meanwhile we could see the first interest rate

:11:53. > :11:56.cut for seven years tomorrow, how likely is it? Far more likely than

:11:57. > :12:00.it was in the monetary policy committee meeting last month last

:12:01. > :12:05.month when they voted 8-1 against raising interest rates. Since then,

:12:06. > :12:10.we have had a lot more data, so the committee which makes the interest

:12:11. > :12:14.rate decision has a lot more to go on. Construction, manufacturing,

:12:15. > :12:19.consumer confidence, all quite poor figures. There has been a signal

:12:20. > :12:22.from some big players on the monetary policy committee, the

:12:23. > :12:26.governor of the Bank of England himself, that they feel an interest

:12:27. > :12:34.rate cut would be good for the economy. Can Carney persuade other

:12:35. > :12:43.members of the MPC? That is likely, and there would likely be a 0.25%

:12:44. > :12:45.cut, from 0.5%, a record low, to 0.25%. Good for mortgage holders but

:12:46. > :12:48.not savers. The contest to replace Nigel Farage

:12:49. > :12:50.as leader of Ukip has thrown the party into disarray after one

:12:51. > :12:53.of the favourite candidates The MEP Stephen Woolfe missed

:12:54. > :12:56.the deadline by 17 minutes Three members of Ukip's executive

:12:57. > :13:00.committee have now resigned in protest, amid talk

:13:01. > :13:02.of a coup against him. Our political correspondent

:13:03. > :13:08.Carole Walker reports. Along the Kent coast,

:13:09. > :13:10.Ukip helped galvanise the tide But what future does it have

:13:11. > :13:20.without Nigel Farage? He stood down after the referendum,

:13:21. > :13:22.saying he had achieved He leaves a party mired

:13:23. > :13:29.in rows and infighting. The party's immigration

:13:30. > :13:31.spokesperson, Steven Woolfe, had been the frontrunner

:13:32. > :13:35.to succeed him, but he's been disqualified for missing

:13:36. > :13:36.the deadline for applications Some of his allies have said he's

:13:37. > :13:43.the victim of a coup. Three have resigned in protest

:13:44. > :13:45.from the party's ruling National I would ask them not to resign

:13:46. > :13:52.from the party, but to resolve the issues of radically

:13:53. > :13:54.changing our party and removing the NEC, which was one of

:13:55. > :13:58.the promises I made in my manifesto. So, who are the candidates

:13:59. > :14:01.on the list? She narrowly lost Eastleigh

:14:02. > :14:06.by-election and is now MEP Bill Etheridge is MEP

:14:07. > :14:14.for the West Midlands Liz Jones is a family law

:14:15. > :14:18.solicitor and party activist Jonathan Arnott is MEP

:14:19. > :14:21.for north-east England, Lisa Duffy is a Cambridgeshire

:14:22. > :14:29.councillor who has the backing Philip Broughton is

:14:30. > :14:32.a semiprofessional wrestler Nigel Farage may have failed to win

:14:33. > :14:42.this Parliamentary seat, but under his leadership almost

:14:43. > :14:44.4 million people voted for Ukip What is the party's mission now

:14:45. > :14:49.Britain is on its way out of the EU? Answering that question is a big

:14:50. > :14:51.challenge for whoever emerges This one,

:14:52. > :15:02.Diane James. Do you recognise any

:15:03. > :15:05.of these? What do you think Ukip

:15:06. > :15:08.could still do, then? See the British people's right,

:15:09. > :15:18.for a change. Look after their own

:15:19. > :15:22.before they start looking What do you think is the point

:15:23. > :15:25.of Ukip now Britain has Well, they've got to see it

:15:26. > :15:29.through, haven't they? It's not actually gone

:15:30. > :15:31.through yet, has it? They've got to make sure

:15:32. > :15:34.they are chased out, What do you think is the point

:15:35. > :15:38.of Ukip In places like this,

:15:39. > :15:45.voters will judge Ukip not just on its new leader,

:15:46. > :15:47.but on whether it can find a new message after

:15:48. > :15:50.the vote to leave the EU. The Italian authorities

:15:51. > :15:58.are investigating whether so-called Islamic State is now involved

:15:59. > :16:01.in organising and profiting from the passage of migrants

:16:02. > :16:05.from Libya to Italy. The crossing is becoming more

:16:06. > :16:08.popular as other routes close down, More than 3,000 migrants or refugees

:16:09. > :16:14.have died in the Mediterranean this year and 120 bodies have washed up

:16:15. > :16:20.on the shores of Libya Our correspondent Chris Buckler

:16:21. > :16:22.joined a rescue ship, operated by the charity MSF,

:16:23. > :16:33.and sent this report. I am standing on a ship in the

:16:34. > :16:39.middle of the Mediterranean Sea. This is a cargo ship which has been

:16:40. > :16:44.transformed into a search and rescue vessel. Inside there is a mini

:16:45. > :16:47.hospital. They are helping refugees and migrants and thousands already

:16:48. > :16:52.have been picked up this year. In fact, we are back from another trip

:16:53. > :16:57.with people who have escaped the deadly crossing, but so many don't,

:16:58. > :17:00.although it is not clear how many have died in this ocean this year.

:17:01. > :17:03.Each day, the Mediterranean appears - tempting those who see it

:17:04. > :17:09.But even if they are able to ignore the risks and reality of what that

:17:10. > :17:20.Search and rescue teams have become a fixture on this ocean.

:17:21. > :17:24.Shortly after sunrise, the latest overloaded boat drifts

:17:25. > :17:28.into view around 20 nautical miles off the coast of Libya.

:17:29. > :17:33.It's so full that people are hanging off the sides.

:17:34. > :17:37.But there's no sign of the smugglers who have made this a business.

:17:38. > :17:41.RADIO: We have approximately 25 females, four children.

:17:42. > :17:56.All 138 people in this boat were relying on being rescued.

:17:57. > :18:01.They had no supplies nor any obvious way of reaching Europe.

:18:02. > :18:06.This group are from Gambia, Nigeria, Sudan and elsewhere in Africa.

:18:07. > :18:11.But some of them have been stuck in Libya for months.

:18:14. > :18:17.In Libya, I was put in prison with my children.

:18:18. > :18:20.I had to pay money in order to get out.

:18:21. > :18:27.I put my life and my childrens' life on the line to come here.

:18:28. > :18:31.In this land, my children can go to school, we can live in peace.

:18:32. > :18:42.These people have found safe passage.

:18:43. > :18:45.But over the last fortnight, a dozen bodies a day have been

:18:46. > :18:51.Near to the site of this rescue, another boat lay

:18:52. > :18:55.floating in the water - possessions still inside and no sign

:18:56. > :19:01.of what happened to those who were once in it.

:19:04. > :19:05.this year, internationally, more than 4000 refugees

:19:28. > :19:30.I'm ashamed of being a European and seeing how Europe is actually

:19:31. > :19:37.We hear numerous times about people getting tortured,

:19:38. > :19:42.girls getting mass raped, people are being sold into slavery.

:19:43. > :19:45.And you see the people back home basically talking about "We're

:19:51. > :19:53.Are you worried, then, that the governments,

:19:54. > :19:57.the authorities in Europe, are actually, if anything,

:19:58. > :20:00.only going to become tougher on how they deal with this problem?

:20:01. > :20:07.I'm terrified it will be tougher because, right now,

:20:21. > :20:36.Do you think it has room for everyone?

:20:37. > :20:42.But the medical staff say it is clear to them

:20:43. > :20:45.that many who have come to Libya have suffered.

:20:46. > :20:48.The patients that we see, there's some very harrowing tales

:20:49. > :20:54.Those people who have been forcibly imprisoned as well, and they carry

:20:55. > :21:02.Whatever they are leaving behind, rescue is a moment of relief,

:21:03. > :21:06.a time to savour, because this journey is only the start.

:28:48. > :28:54.that she rang her daughter back home and insisted that she buy a lottery

:28:55. > :28:57.ticket for the family. It's a good job her daughter

:28:58. > :29:00.did what she was told, Sangita Myska's report contains

:29:01. > :29:05.some flash photography. For the Davies family,

:29:06. > :29:09.life really can't get any better. They won ?61 million in the Euro

:29:15. > :29:18.surgery on a tumour I just felt I had cheated

:29:19. > :29:24.death, I felt so lucky. I was on a roll, I thought,

:29:25. > :29:31."I will buy a lottery ticket." I did not for a moment think

:29:32. > :29:34.we would win, but you feel so lucky, It is tears of joy now

:29:35. > :29:42.for Stephanie, but it had taken a long phone call from Mum

:29:43. > :29:45.to convince her to go out She finally relented,

:29:46. > :29:51.and what a result. We ran around the house,

:29:52. > :29:54.locked the doors and windows, as if there

:29:55. > :30:00.was somebody watching us! And then we were, "Well,

:30:01. > :30:05.what if the ticket disappears?" So we took a few selfies

:30:06. > :30:08.with the ticket, to prove I said I would buy an electric

:30:09. > :30:24.toothbrush because I have never The family have decided to split

:30:25. > :30:33.the winnings equally, which gets them just over

:30:34. > :30:37.?12 million each. All because that mum managed

:30:38. > :30:39.to get her daughter to listen Mum has been cured, we can move

:30:40. > :30:46.forward and enjoy life. The lottery on top of it is

:30:47. > :30:49.an added bonus. The lesson is always listen

:30:50. > :30:55.to your mum? The family now say they will sit

:30:56. > :31:03.back and let the good news sink in before deciding how

:31:04. > :31:23.to invest their winnings. Tonight, just two days away from

:31:24. > :31:31.Rio, we ask about our own Olympic legacy. Did 2012 succeeded in
