Questions tonight about how one of the London Bridge attackers | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
slipped through the net after police reveal he was known | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
Two of the three attackers are named. | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
Khuram Butt and Rachid Redouane both lived in Barking. | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
Khuram Butt was known to have supported a banned Islamist | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
extremist group and had been reported to the | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
As police raid more addresses in Dagenham, the head of the Met | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
says the terror strategy needs to be reviewed. | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
All of us need to look at the overall strategy, | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
the tactics, the resourcing and, indeed, what we are doing | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
James McMullan had been out drinking with friends, | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
his sister believes he's among the dead. | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
While our pain will never diminish, it is important for us | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
to all carry on with our lives, in direct opposition to those | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
Theresa May is accused of jeopardising national security | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
by cutting police numbers, she accuses Jeremy Corbyn | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
We'll be looking at whether the police and security services | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
could have done more to stop the killings on Saturday, | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
when one of the attackers was already known to them. | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
The first funeral of those killed in the Manchester attack - | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
14-year-old Eilidh MacLeod in Barra in the outer Hebrides. | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
Six Arab states cut diplomatic ties with Qatar, accusing it | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
And the actor Peter Sallis, of the Last of the Summer Wine | :01:37. | :01:45. | |
and the voice of Wallace in Wallace and Gromit, has died. | :01:46. | :02:17. | |
Two of the three attackers on London Bridge on Saturday night | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
Khuram Butt, 27 years old, British, living in Barking, | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
He had been a supporter of a banned Islamist extremist group and had | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
been reported to the anti-terrorist hotline by suspicious neighbours. | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
But the police say they had no intelligence to suggest he was | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
One other attacker was named - Rachid Redouane who was 30 | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
and claimed to be Moroccan/Libyan and also lived in Barking - | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
the police say he had not previously come to their attention. | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
Tonight, questions as to why Khuram Butt in particular was not | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
a greater priority for the security services and how they missed a plot | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
Our Home Editor Mark Easton has more. | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
They knew him. One of the three men who murdered seven people in London | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
on Saturday night was well-known to police and MI5 as an extremist. The | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
group display the black flag of Islam. Khuram Butt featured in a | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
Channel 4 documentary last year on radical militants in Britain, the | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
title, The Jihadis Next Door. So how did he go on to kill until | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
counterterrorism officers shot him? Please confirm the names of two | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
attackers, Khuram Butt, a 27-year-old from a British Pakistani | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
family, married with two children including a young baby and in the | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
last few years he worked for Kentucky Fried Chicken and was a | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
customer service advisor at Transport for London. Less is known | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
about Rachid Redouane. Police and security services say that he was | :04:01. | :04:02. | |
unknown to them before the attack but he was understood to be 30 years | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
old, claiming to have Libyan or Moroccan background. Until last year | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
he lived in Dublin with a Scottish partner but according to Irish Prime | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
Minister and a Kenny he was not known to the security services. We | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
have a small number of people in Ireland who are being monitored and | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
observed in respect of radicalisation and matters like | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
that. In this case, these facts are being chased but my understanding is | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
that this individual was not a member of that small group. What are | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
you touching me for? Khuram Butt, though, was very much on the UK | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
security services' radar and there will be questions about how someone | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
with such well-known extremist views could carry out such a murderous | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
attack on the streets of London. Security barriers appeared on some | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
London Bridge is overnight as London Bridge itself reopened to people | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
heading in and out of the square mile. London is getting back to | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
normal. This bunch of flowers is almost the only sign of the carnage | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
that was here on Monday and bridge on Saturday night and into Sunday | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
morning but a huge police and security operation is continuing, | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
trying to map the network of people behind the ideas that spawned mass | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
murder on London's streets. Bouquets at the border of what is now a huge | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
crime scene at the heart of the capital. Tense marking the places in | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
Borough Market where people felt, forensic officers gathering clues | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
and evidence. This afternoon the commission of the Metropolitan | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
Police visited the area with the Mayor of London. It is deeply, | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
deeply chilling and horribly sad to see what we have just seen, and to | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
think about the barbarous acts on Saturday night. We saw extraordinary | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
courage, extraordinary professionalism and extraordinary | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
compassion from our public servants. Political and religious leaders, | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
emergency service workers as well as thousands of ordinary Londoners | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
attended a vigil in a public park this evening, a short distance from | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
where the attacks occurred. As a proud and patriotic British Muslim, | :06:19. | :06:25. | |
I say this. You do not commit these is dusting acts in my name. -- these | :06:26. | :06:35. | |
disgusting acts. And you will never succeed in dividing our City. People | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
came to remember, to unite and to give thanks. But if they also came | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
to seek answers as to how this attack could have happened, tonight, | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
they seemed to be more questions. -- there seemed to be. | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
Today a neighbour of the London Bridge attacker | :06:55. | :06:56. | |
Khuram Butt told the BBC how he saw him driving around | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
in the van used in the attack, on the day before it happened. | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
Our Special Correspondent Ed Thomas has the latest | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
More raids and more searches. This was a garage in east London this | :07:05. | :07:16. | |
morning, surrounded by police. For a second day, forensic teams look for | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
clues inside the home of one of the three London attackers. This man, | :07:21. | :07:28. | |
Khuram Butt. He was 27 and a father of two young children. Born in | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
Pakistan, raised in London. He worked on the London Underground. He | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
turned to Islamist extremism. My kids loved playing with him. This | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
lady is a neighbour who said that he was well-known but now he feels -- | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
she feels fooled. He was nice to the kids. I was blind. Scary, we have | :07:51. | :08:02. | |
children playing near. Benjamin said hello to Khuram Butt, even on the | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
day of the attack. Yes, I can remember seeing him. What was he | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
like? He was quiet. What was he wearing? Arsenal T-shirt. Was he | :08:14. | :08:21. | |
calm when you saw him on Saturday? Yeah he was calm. Michael watched | :08:22. | :08:28. | |
police moving into his neighbour's house. We thought he was moving out | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
because he was parked in a middle-of-the-road. He also watched | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
the London attacker in the white van speeding up and down their street. | :08:38. | :08:46. | |
What was his van doing? It screeched up, they drove really fast and | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
another car was behind him, a red car. So it was speeding up and | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
braking? Braking on the bend. Not just known to his neighbours, Khuram | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
Butt was known to MI5 and counterterrorism police as an | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
extremist. He wasn't happy with how women were dressed. This teenager | :09:08. | :09:16. | |
new Khuram Butt, they speak in parks and in a nearby mosque. He didn't | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
want to show his face and asked us to protect his identity. He would | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
talk about Syria, Afghanistan, getting bombed. He said that they | :09:25. | :09:32. | |
would debate Syria, Iraq and Islamic State. | :09:33. | :09:42. | |
Do you think he was trying to radicalise you? | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
I wouldn't want to turn out like a bad person, | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
I wouldn't want to do that kind of thing. | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
Tonight, the searches continued to reveal the truth behind the enemy | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
within. In the last few minutes Scotland | :09:54. | :10:03. | |
Yard have announced that all 12 people arrested in connection with | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
the London Bridge attack have been released without charge. We can talk | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
to our security correspondent to get more. How is it that the police and | :10:11. | :10:18. | |
MI5, MI5, rather, appeared to work Galal -- appeared to allow one of | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
the attackers, Khuram Butt, through their grasp? There are questions | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
about why he was not watched. He was known to authorities and appeared in | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
documentaries about extremists, he had been reported by other people | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
because of their concerns and was even linked to a group, Alhaji | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
Maroon, where people were involved in terrorism. He was looked at by | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
MI5 but when they looked at him a couple of years ago they saw no | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
signs of him planning an attack. He was kept under investigation. You | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
may think that means you are being under surveillance all the time, but | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
that isn't the reality unless you're at the very top tier of targets | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
because there are 3000 people under investigation and there aren't the | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
resources to do that. That kind of intensive surveillance only comes if | :11:12. | :11:13. | |
they think you are planning an attack and in this case they saw no | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
signs of that until it was too late. Many people may say that given the | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
events of Saturday, he should be in the top tier of people they were | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
looking at. Is there any sense of concern, reviewing the strategy of | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
the security services? I think there is concern, some people are rattled | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
about what happened. People thought that Britain had built a pretty | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
effective counterterrorism machine that was running at full tilt but | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
was effectively disrupting plots but we've had three in three months | :11:43. | :11:51. | |
where individuals were known to the authorities. There has been a lot of | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
political talk today about resources and police numbers but in the | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
counterterrorism world they are thinking about the strategy. Do they | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
need to change how they operate, do they need to go back and review | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
people to see if the threat profile has changed? Do they need to look at | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
how information from beginning it is dealt with? They are the kind of | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
hard questions I think they are asking and will be asking going | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
forward. Some soul-searching, and they know that they need to deal | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
with the threat that is still very much there. Thank you for joining | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
us. The sister of a man who's been | :12:24. | :12:24. | |
missing following the London Bridge attack says she believes | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
that he was killed. Melissa McMullan, whose brother | :12:30. | :12:31. | |
James was last seen outside one of the pubs struck by the attackers, | :12:32. | :12:33. | |
said her pain "would Our Special Correspondent, | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
Lucy Manning was speaking to her. Melissa McMullan has just had | :12:37. | :12:44. | |
the news no sister wants to hear. She now believes her brother, | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
James, was murdered This morning we received news | :12:50. | :12:50. | |
from the police that my brother's bank card was found on one | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
of the bodies from Saturday While our pain will never diminish, | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
it is important for us to all carry on with our lives in direct | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
opposition to all those James was 32 years old, from London, | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
on a night out with friends in a pub on Borough High Street, when he | :13:10. | :13:18. | |
popped outside for a cigarette. Despite the anguish, the tears, | :13:19. | :13:20. | |
Melissa wanted to speak, to let everyone know what her big | :13:21. | :13:22. | |
brother was like. Nowhere else will you find such | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
humour and unique personality, with someone who puts friends | :13:26. | :13:33. | |
and family above all else. Melissa, how would you | :13:34. | :13:35. | |
describe your brother? And no one could ever | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
replace my brother. The friends who were with James | :13:43. | :13:52. | |
on Saturday night supported Melissa as she left Saint Thomas' Hospital | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
this afternoon, all heartbroken. Andy, you were with him on Saturday | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
night, he was having fun? Oh, yeah, his normal, | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
hilarious self. Yeah, watching the football, | :14:06. | :14:06. | |
James hates the football, he was always outside | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
going for a cigarette, because he just didn't | :14:12. | :14:13. | |
want to watch it with us. What do you make of what has | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
happened to your friend? And I can't even put | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
into words how much... More than anything, Melissa | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
says her son will desperately He was always so excited | :14:29. | :14:39. | |
to see him when he could. And they used to spend | :14:40. | :14:49. | |
hours being silly, taking silly photos of each | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
other, messing around. A Canadian woman has become | :14:54. | :14:56. | |
the first of the seven victims of Saturday's attack | :14:57. | :15:05. | |
to be officially named. She was Christine Archibald, | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
who was visiting London This report from our | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
Special Correspondent Allan Little on the victims of Saturday's | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
attack. The faces of those caught up | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
in the attack reflect the character of London - | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
diverse, global, a magnet drawing youth and energy | :15:21. | :15:22. | |
from around the world. Chrissy Archibald, who was 30 | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
and from Canada, was walking on London Bridge with her fiance, | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
Tyler Ferguson, when she was struck He heard tyres screeching, | :15:32. | :15:33. | |
and he looked back, and he just saw the mayhem that was going on, | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
and the van hitting people. And then he ran up and tried CPR | :15:40. | :15:47. | |
on her, and she passed in his arms. Her family said she would not have | :15:48. | :15:55. | |
understood the callous cruelty The French Foreign Ministry said one | :15:56. | :15:57. | |
French citizen had been murdered, A further two French nationals | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
remain unaccounted for. Candice Hedge was one of four | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
Australians injured. She was stabbed in the throat, | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
and is now recovering in hospital. She was hiding at the time, | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
and the guy, you know, got her, and just kind | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
of stabbed her in But, yeah, I eventually | :16:20. | :16:21. | |
got onto the hospital, and they spoke to me, | :16:22. | :16:28. | |
and they said, yeah, she's fine now. She's going to be OK, | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
that's the main thing. Daniel O'Neill, who's 23, | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
suffered a seven-inch His life was saved by a friend, | :16:37. | :16:38. | |
who stopped the bleeding Geoff Ho, a journalist, | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
was stabbed while trying to stop "I don't know whether it was stupid | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
or noble", he said on Facebook, "but that wasn't going to happen | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
on my watch". Oliver Dowling from New Zealand | :16:56. | :16:57. | |
needed four hours of surgery. His French girlfriend, | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
Marie Bondeville, was also injured, and is in a different | :17:02. | :17:03. | |
London hospital. Brett Freeman, who is from | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
East London, is a father of three, A friend posted this | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
picture on social media, 18 people remain critically ill, | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
most of those who died The list of those killed | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
and injured reflects An attack in London sends | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
its anguish around the world. 36 people are currently | :17:24. | :17:33. | |
being cared for in London hospitals with 18 remaining | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
in a critical condition. Our Health Correspondent Sophie | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
Hutchinson is outside Kings College Hospital | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
where many of the injured What can you tell us about the | :17:42. | :17:55. | |
latest? This is one of five London hospitals treating some of the | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
injured from Saturday night's terror attack. Kings College Hospital in | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
south-east London is a major trauma centre. It's treating 14 of the | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
victims. There are another 12 being treated at the Royal London | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
Hospital, four at Saint Thomas Hospital, four at University College | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
Hospital and two at Saint Mary 's hospitals. A total of 48 people were | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
taken to hospital during the attack, 36 remain in hospital and their | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
injuries are thought to range from the trauma of being hit by the van | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
on London Bridge has some very severe stab wounds. A doctor told | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
the BBC today the patients he had seen, he said, of the people that | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
were stabbed, they were stabbed with a clear intent to kill. He also said | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
those victims he saw were so shocked that they couldn't speak. It is | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
perhaps some measure of the brutality of this attack that out of | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
half of all of those in hospital tonight, 18 people need critical | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
care. Thank you. There are just three days to go | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
before the election - and the terror attack has sparked | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
off heated arguments The Prime Minister has been accused | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
of cutting police numbers For her part, Theresa May insists | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
the Metropolitan Police is well resourced and has accused | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
Jeremy Corbyn of failing to support Laura Kuenssberg reports | :19:21. | :19:22. | |
on the political reaction. Raising the stakes, | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
but is she raising her game? Theresa May called for | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
a new attitude in a new era She hopes leadership | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
is her strength, but Because of the changing nature | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
of the threat we face, we need to review our counterterrorism | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
strategy to make sure the police and security services have | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
all the powers they need. If that means increasing the length | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
of custodial sentences for terrorism-related offences, | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
even apparently less serious They may be uncomfortable | :19:57. | :19:58. | |
for some to contemplate, but nothing is more important | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
than keeping our country safe. She's promised tighter rules | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
for Internet providers and a review of counterterror, | :20:11. | :20:12. | |
too, but again and again she was pressed on falling police | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
budgets and falling numbers, too. On your watch as Home Secretary, | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
the number of armed police officers fell, it's still lower | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
than it was in 2010. The number of officers | :20:25. | :20:26. | |
fell in total by 20,000, And also control orders that monitor | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
terrorists were watered down. Would it not be leadership to say | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
that you would reverse those cuts? We have enhanced the powers | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
for the police, we've ensured that the security and intelligence | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
agencies have the powers that they need, but it's not | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
just about resource, The independent former | :20:45. | :20:47. | |
terror watchdog agreed. Do you think that police cuts | :20:48. | :20:54. | |
and the squeeze on the Home Office I think this is a completely | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
misleading argument and the Prime Minister | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
is right about it. The cuts in community policing | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
are a legitimate issue to raise in the election, | :21:05. | :21:06. | |
but they are nothing Not everyone agrees, | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
and crowds rushed to hear Jeremy Corbyn in the rain | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
in Gateshead tonight, and his attack on police cuts | :21:15. | :21:16. | |
and a promise to end austerity. What we're saying is | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
it's time for a change. Jeremy Corbyn's application | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
for the biggest job in the land is to restore cuts | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
to public services. Will you take me on as | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
an apprentice in your company? Well, I'd have to see | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
your grades first. Having seemed to call | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
for Theresa May to resign before clarifying, Jeremy Corbyn says he'd | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
consider any request from the One is more police, that's | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
absolutely essential. Secondly, more intelligence | :21:47. | :21:53. | |
on the operations that are necessary to prevent a terror | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
attack taking place. The reports will have | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
to be looked at. And also, the Home Office should | :22:03. | :22:03. | |
release its report on funding of terrorist organisations, | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
which it's been sitting on and not Despite the usual energetic | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
photocalls, the weekend attacks have There must be a determination | :22:10. | :22:16. | |
across all of the parties to challenge robustly extremism | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
in all of its forms. But as we do that, we've got to make | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
sure we pull people together. And the Lib Dems are cautious | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
about any increase in surveillance. Theresa May, who has made a choice | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
to give away corporation tax cuts to very wealthy corporations, | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
and at the same time to cut With the choice just days away, | :22:37. | :22:38. | |
the discussions are nearly done, but the closing phase of this | :22:39. | :22:46. | |
campaign is a fundamentally different shape | :22:47. | :22:48. | |
to when it all began. And the question on the table now, | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
the most basic of all - who will you trust to keep | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
the country safe? The Tories hope the Prime | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
Minister's experience A statement issued by Muslim leaders | :23:02. | :23:03. | |
in London says questions need to be asked about how extremism and hatred | :23:04. | :23:15. | |
can take hold within The Archbishop of Canterbury, | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
Justin Welby, has added that it is wrong to argue, | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
as some politicians have done, that Saturday's attack has | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
nothing to do with Islam. Reeta Chakrabarti reports now | :23:26. | :23:27. | |
on tackling extremism. Leaders in search of answers. These | :23:28. | :23:43. | |
men, senior British Muslims, appalled at what's been done in | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
their religion's name, made this play. Every time a terrorist attack | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
takes place Muslim communities either face or fear a backlash | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
against them. The Muslim community appeals to all sections within their | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
own communities to root out the scourge of terrorism, which hides | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
amongst their own people. And masquerades as is lamb. It was the | :24:07. | :24:14. | |
same message from Lambeth Palace. -- Islam. The Archbishop of Canterbury | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
said senior Christian figures had to lead if attacks took place in the | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
name of Christianity and Muslims had to do the same. By saying it's not | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
part of Christianity or whatever, is Lahm, we avoid the hard questions of | :24:29. | :24:35. | |
where does this come from, how is the world view that some parts of | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
our own faith tradition presents, so perverted from the truth of the | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
faith that it makes this possible. These appeals are being made from on | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
high, but how will they go down on the ground, in the families and | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
communities they are intended for? Islamist extremism is seen as twist | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
of the religion it's tough, but who should root it out? Some say loudly | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
that Muslim leaders have to do more, but some of those leaders are saying | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
this is a problem they've grappled with four years. At least London | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
Mosque, some worshippers say they saw one of the London attackers, | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
Khuram Butt, leafleting outside. He was never a member and the chain and | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
says they've been trying to stop extremists like him 4-2 decades. | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
We've had people coming to the mosque and wanting to impose | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
themselves and their ideology and their thinking, particularly with | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
young be bought, which is a very narrow and skewed view and we've had | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
to say no, this is not what Islam teaches. Rashid was just 19 when he | :25:46. | :25:53. | |
was killed in Syria fighting for self styled Islamic State. His | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
mother has set up a support group to try to deal with radicalisation and | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
she questions how much organisations can do. Mosques are easy targets but | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
it doesn't mean they are radicalised in mosques. Once they have | :26:08. | :26:10. | |
pinpointed somebody vulnerable, they take them out of the mosque because | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
they won't do it within the mosque. It's the same with colleges and | :26:16. | :26:18. | |
schools and universities. They will take them outside. Once they've gone | :26:19. | :26:25. | |
to hook them in, they take them outside into places where they are | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
more secretive. Today has seen soul-searching and a strong | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
repudiates and of extremism. In an unprecedented move, over 130 Muslim | :26:36. | :26:41. | |
leaders are refusing to perform funeral prayers for the London | :26:42. | :26:44. | |
attackers and calling on others to do the same. | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
President Trump has taken to Twitter again to criticise the London Mayor, | :26:49. | :26:51. | |
Sadiq Khan, over his assurances to people after the London attack. | :26:52. | :26:53. | |
The President originally hit out at Mr Khan hours | :26:54. | :26:55. | |
Twitter storms roll in early at this White House. While the rest of the | :26:56. | :27:09. | |
world was commit a rating with London, the president was going | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
after the Mayor, suggesting there was no reason to be alarmed about | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
the terror attacks, but that was taking the words out of context. | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
Sadiq Khan had said there was no reason to be alarmed by the | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
additional armed police. Forward 24 hours and was the president | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
apologising? Not a bit of it. He was intensifying the attack. He wrote... | :27:33. | :27:44. | |
This evening at the vigil for those killed and injured in Saturday's | :27:45. | :27:51. | |
attack, the Mayor responded in this way. We have to recognise some | :27:52. | :27:56. | |
people want to divide our communities, some people thrive on | :27:57. | :28:01. | |
Bute and division. That's not me or anyone I know. We want allow anyone | :28:02. | :28:07. | |
to divide our communities. And there was solidarity among city Mayors. I | :28:08. | :28:13. | |
don't understand why Donald Trump is trying to undermine a man who is | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
trying to protect the people of London. It makes no sense. Sadiq | :28:17. | :28:25. | |
Khan is an exemplary Mayor and the Mayor of the city of ten of our | :28:26. | :28:29. | |
closest allies. Another extraordinary day and another | :28:30. | :28:34. | |
extraordinary call from one of the President's closest advisers. Kelly | :28:35. | :28:37. | |
and Conway said the media should stop obsessing about Donald Trump's | :28:38. | :28:42. | |
tweets. In other words, we shouldn't take too seriously what the | :28:43. | :28:46. | |
president of the USA is saying. But one thing to be taken with utmost | :28:47. | :28:50. | |
seriousness is the state visit of the President to Britain later this | :28:51. | :28:55. | |
year, an invitation extended when to reason may was that the White House. | :28:56. | :29:01. | |
An invitation that might be a little challenging diplomatically. -- when | :29:02. | :29:06. | |
it to reason may was at the White House. | :29:07. | :29:10. | |
The first funeral of a victim of the Manchester Arena attack has | :29:11. | :29:13. | |
taken place on the island of Barra in the pouter Hebrides. | :29:14. | :29:15. | |
Aylie MacLeod attended the Ariana Grande concert | :29:16. | :29:17. | |
with her friend, 15-year-old Laura MacIntyre, who | :29:18. | :29:18. | |
As a mark of respect, the local school and businesses | :29:19. | :29:26. | |
In this small island community, they said farewell. | :29:27. | :29:35. | |
Eilidh MacLeod's father at the head of a dignified procession, | :29:36. | :29:38. | |
family close behind as the coffin was passed gently from hand-to-hand. | :29:39. | :29:46. | |
As a Gaelic song praising a fair-haired girl from Barra played | :29:47. | :29:49. | |
Her family wanted Eilidh's funeral to be a celebration of her life - | :29:50. | :30:01. | |
a young girl with an infectious personality who loved music, | :30:02. | :30:04. | |
reading, and spending time with her friends. | :30:05. | :30:10. | |
In contrast to the hate that took her life, Eilidh's life | :30:11. | :30:15. | |
was a testament to the world of love, of innocence, | :30:16. | :30:20. | |
Her influence lives on through all the lives that she ever touched. | :30:21. | :30:44. | |
In this safe and gentle place, the grief at Eilidh's | :30:45. | :30:47. | |
Her family said most of her happiest times were spent with friends | :30:48. | :30:50. | |
They are glad to have her back home among those she loved so much. | :30:51. | :30:55. | |
Then, a final journey across the causeway | :30:56. | :31:00. | |
to a neighbouring island, as Eilidh was laid to rest | :31:01. | :31:02. | |
A beautiful girl, her parents said, who would stay eternally young, | :31:03. | :31:09. | |
loved by all and forever in their hearts. | :31:10. | :31:12. | |
As with Manchester, many Londoners have reacted | :31:13. | :31:20. | |
But the security services are warning we may have to learn | :31:21. | :31:28. | |
to live with the ongoing possibility of further violence | :31:29. | :31:30. | |
Our special correspondent Fergal Keane looks at what longer | :31:31. | :31:33. | |
term challenges this could present to our society | :31:34. | :31:35. | |
The imagery of terror is becoming more familiar. Three attacks in less | :31:36. | :31:47. | |
than three months, all by men who were willing to die themselves so | :31:48. | :31:53. | |
they could inflict pain on others. Rightly, we speak of people's | :31:54. | :31:57. | |
resilience and there will to resist those who would make them afraid. | :31:58. | :32:01. | |
But the public response to terror can be more complex. I think it's | :32:02. | :32:08. | |
terror, buried -- I think it's terrible, very little is being done. | :32:09. | :32:15. | |
You send condolences. The suspicion, it does something to you, even | :32:16. | :32:20. | |
though we don't want to admit it. No woman is about being scared and | :32:21. | :32:24. | |
looking at people differently. Everyone does, I guess. In the 12 | :32:25. | :32:34. | |
years since the 7/7 bombings, feelings of fear have dissipated. | :32:35. | :32:38. | |
Inevitably the names of victims, the immediacy of the horror faded from | :32:39. | :32:43. | |
the public mind but once again, Britain faced mass casualty | :32:44. | :32:45. | |
terrorism. The government is promising tough action. | :32:46. | :32:48. | |
Theresa May says enough is enough, but suppose that the struggle | :32:49. | :32:50. | |
against violent jihadism is | :32:51. | :32:53. | |
a generational one, that the violence we saw on Westminster | :32:54. | :32:55. | |
Bridge, in Manchester, in London, has the capacity to stretch decades | :32:56. | :32:58. | |
What are the human costs and the challenges to our | :32:59. | :33:07. | |
Terrorism leaves a devastating long-term legacy. | :33:08. | :33:11. | |
Jenny Nicholson, aged 24, was murdered on the way to | :33:12. | :33:14. | |
Grief is not something you can measure at all. | :33:15. | :33:22. | |
It's something that is utterly felt and I | :33:23. | :33:24. | |
The water of grief can rise but it can | :33:25. | :33:27. | |
It's always there, it never goes away and in a | :33:28. | :33:40. | |
second, in a moment, something can bring it back. | :33:41. | :33:43. | |
And of course, with every new terrorist attack, then, | :33:44. | :33:49. | |
you know, it brings it back so you are forced | :33:50. | :33:52. | |
With sustained violence like that experienced in Northern Ireland, | :33:53. | :34:05. | |
individual suffering inflamed communal division. | :34:06. | :34:07. | |
Coming up here to see if we can give any help. | :34:08. | :34:10. | |
I've seen nothing, only bodies lying there. | :34:11. | :34:13. | |
Terrorism was not an event but a continuing | :34:14. | :34:15. | |
Trauma, working its way into the collective psyche, | :34:16. | :34:20. | |
The main thing that a long-term terror threat does to a | :34:21. | :34:27. | |
society like the UK is to polarise it, to cause division, to divide | :34:28. | :34:31. | |
people from different communities, make them suspicious of one another | :34:32. | :34:34. | |
and make it more difficult for the society to be cohesive | :34:35. | :34:36. | |
There's no sign of it away any time soon. | :34:37. | :34:40. | |
In other words, this is something that we're going | :34:41. | :34:43. | |
to have to learn to live with and cope with and deal with. | :34:44. | :34:46. | |
Not imaginable in the case of IS, which | :34:47. | :34:51. | |
regards mass murder as an end in itself. | :34:52. | :34:56. | |
Patient, long-term realistic approaches to containing the threat | :34:57. | :34:59. | |
are more realistic than saying you can stamp terrorism out. | :35:00. | :35:01. | |
Even though the IRA and Isis are very different | :35:02. | :35:03. | |
groups, all those things in terms of how one response | :35:04. | :35:07. | |
to terrorism seem to be echoed across generations. | :35:08. | :35:12. | |
But that counsel of patience may be tested in the weeks, months, perhaps | :35:13. | :35:15. | |
Six Arab states, including Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, | :35:16. | :35:23. | |
the United Arab Emirates and Egypt, have cut diplomatic ties | :35:24. | :35:29. | |
with Qatar, accusing it of supporting terrorism. | :35:30. | :35:32. | |
Qatari diplomats are being expelled from neighbouring countries, | :35:33. | :35:34. | |
while the airlines, Etihad and Emirates, are suspending flights | :35:35. | :35:36. | |
The Qatari Foreign Ministry says the measures are | :35:37. | :35:41. | |
"unjustified" and based on "unfounded allegations." | :35:42. | :35:45. | |
Our Security Correspondent, Frank Gardner, has more. | :35:46. | :35:52. | |
Saudi TV today, airing a very public quarrel between some | :35:53. | :35:54. | |
Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE as well as Egypt have | :35:55. | :36:01. | |
They've imposed an air, land and sea embargo on the country, | :36:02. | :36:06. | |
They're accusing the gas-rich Gulf state of funding | :36:07. | :36:11. | |
terrorists and helping Iran destabilise the region. | :36:12. | :36:14. | |
It was President Trump's recent visit to Riyadh that | :36:15. | :36:21. | |
Its leaders now feel they've got the green light | :36:22. | :36:26. | |
from Washington to get tough on their rivals and adversaries. | :36:27. | :36:33. | |
But Qatar hosts US Central Command's airbase for the entire Middle East | :36:34. | :36:36. | |
and the US needs this spat to be resolved quickly. | :36:37. | :36:41. | |
What we are witnessing is a growing list of some irritants in the region | :36:42. | :36:44. | |
Obviously now they have bubbled up to a level that countries have | :36:45. | :36:52. | |
decided they needed to take action in an effort to have those | :36:53. | :36:54. | |
We certainly would encourage the parties to sit down together | :36:55. | :37:01. | |
Six Arab nations have lined up to accuse Qatar and its ruling emir | :37:02. | :37:08. | |
of supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas to promote an Islamist | :37:09. | :37:11. | |
Of supporting violent jihadists in Syria, something the Saudis | :37:12. | :37:16. | |
And of hosting the Al-Jazeera TV channel, a constant thorn | :37:17. | :37:21. | |
TRANSLATION: I don't think the UAE and Saudi Arabia will, or want to, | :37:22. | :37:31. | |
interfere to overthrow the regime in Qatar. | :37:32. | :37:36. | |
They just want Qatar to commit to what's been agreed on. | :37:37. | :37:41. | |
Qatar has invested billions of pounds in Britain. | :37:42. | :37:43. | |
It owns the London Shard, Harrods, luxury hotels, | :37:44. | :37:45. | |
Qatar's embassy in London is making no comment this evening, | :37:46. | :37:51. | |
but this is an escalating row between close allies | :37:52. | :37:55. | |
Qatar will not be able to endure this sort of isolation for long | :37:56. | :38:00. | |
and looming on the horizon is an important date | :38:01. | :38:02. | |
In just five years' time, the Fifa football World Cup is due | :38:03. | :38:08. | |
Already a controversial choice of venue, this would be | :38:09. | :38:12. | |
all but impossible if this row is not resolved by then. | :38:13. | :38:17. | |
The leader of the Scottish National Party, Nicola Sturgeon | :38:18. | :38:31. | |
and the Liberal Democrat leader, Tim Farron, have faced an audience | :38:32. | :38:34. | |
They faced questions on Brexit, a second Scottish Independence | :38:35. | :38:39. | |
Our Scotland Editor, Sarah Smith, was watching. | :38:40. | :38:41. | |
One issue, the most in the minds of the audience tonight, security. Tim | :38:42. | :38:45. | |
Farron was asked why he didn't support new Internet surveillance | :38:46. | :38:53. | |
powers. He said it would be counter-productive. The terrorists | :38:54. | :38:55. | |
want us to turn in on ourselves and to be divided as a country. They | :38:56. | :38:59. | |
want us to give up on our freedoms and liberties and those are the | :39:00. | :39:03. | |
things we should not sacrifice otherwise the terrorists will have | :39:04. | :39:07. | |
won. He was tackled on the economy and tax. How can the Lib Dems | :39:08. | :39:12. | |
justify making every taxpayer pay 1p more tax? You can have platitudes | :39:13. | :39:17. | |
from people who will tell you that they can solve the problem without | :39:18. | :39:21. | |
any extra money or we can be honest and say that for the price of a cup | :39:22. | :39:25. | |
of coffee a week we can have the best NHS and social care in the | :39:26. | :39:29. | |
world. The SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon was asked how to deal with | :39:30. | :39:35. | |
terror threats. We've got to tackle and address extremism whenever we | :39:36. | :39:40. | |
find it. And I believe very strongly that we have to do that with the | :39:41. | :39:46. | |
Muslim community. We mustn't scapegoat that community. She faced | :39:47. | :39:50. | |
several hostile questions about her demand for another referendum on | :39:51. | :39:56. | |
Scottish independence. Continuing with independence and this time. I'm | :39:57. | :40:03. | |
not proposing it now, I accept that. When are you proposing it? At the | :40:04. | :40:08. | |
end of the process. It should be our choice, when the time is right and | :40:09. | :40:12. | |
we know what Brexit means for the country, to decide the future of | :40:13. | :40:16. | |
Scotland. Education, the NHS and Brexit all came up but what the | :40:17. | :40:20. | |
voters here really want to know is how politicians are planning to keep | :40:21. | :40:24. | |
them safe. Sarah Smith, BBC News, Edinburgh. | :40:25. | :40:28. | |
The actor, Peter Sallis, has died - at the age of 96. | :40:29. | :40:31. | |
He was best known for his roles in Last of the Summer Wine | :40:32. | :40:34. | |
and as the voice of Wallace in the animation series, | :40:35. | :40:37. | |
MUSIC: Theme from Last of the Summer Wine. | :40:38. | :40:42. | |
For more than 30 years, Peter Sallis played Clegg, | :40:43. | :40:44. | |
the mild-mannered, flat-capped philosopher in Last | :40:45. | :40:46. | |
Much of the series' innocent charm came from Peter Sallis. | :40:47. | :41:00. | |
It happens sometimes in an actor's life, | :41:01. | :41:14. | |
if you're very, very lucky, that something special turns up. | :41:15. | :41:19. | |
When I read Last of the Summer Wine, I thought, this is it. | :41:20. | :41:24. | |
Long before the Summer Wine, Peter Sallis was a familiar face. | :41:25. | :41:28. | |
On television, he played Samuel Pepys. | :41:29. | :41:34. | |
And Casanova in the heyday of studio drama. | :41:35. | :41:39. | |
And he appeared in classic serials like The Palaces. | :41:40. | :41:41. | |
Then, in his 70s, those nasal Yorkshire tones became world famous | :41:42. | :41:50. | |
It's my turn for breakfast this morning, Gromit. | :41:51. | :41:59. | |
Park cast him as the voice of his plasticine character Wallace | :42:00. | :42:08. | |
Wallace was charming, hapless and sometimes quite shrewd, | :42:09. | :42:14. | |
playing comic foil to the lugubrious Gromit. | :42:15. | :42:17. | |
Peter Sallis was an automatic choice for the part. | :42:18. | :42:21. | |
I feel very grateful, not only the richness and the charm | :42:22. | :42:28. | |
that he brought to Wallace, and the humour, but also just | :42:29. | :42:34. | |
knowing such a lovely man off-screen as well was wonderful, | :42:35. | :42:36. | |
Few actors are lucky enough to win two such wonderful parts. | :42:37. | :42:44. | |
Peter Sallis was a modest man, not unlike the characters he created, | :42:45. | :42:47. | |
The actor Peter Sallis, who has died at the age of 96. | :42:48. | :43:00. | |
Let's return to our main story and the London Bridge terror attack. | :43:01. | :43:05. | |
There has been much praise for the quick response | :43:06. | :43:07. | |
But of course once the injured had been treated and | :43:08. | :43:10. | |
taken to hospitals, nursing staff there then had to work | :43:11. | :43:14. | |
through the night to treat often life-threatening | :43:15. | :43:16. | |
Daniela Relph has been talking to two nurses - | :43:17. | :43:29. | |
Donna Adcock and Saskia Stephenson - who were called into work at | :43:30. | :43:32. | |
Instantly, my heart was pounding, and I was rushing around, | :43:33. | :43:35. | |
where's my car keys, where's my bag, just wanted to get | :43:36. | :43:38. | |
Anyone that we contacted, who was available and nearby, came. | :43:39. | :43:42. | |
The staff themselves were all geared up, they were very controlled, | :43:43. | :43:46. | |
they were supporting one another, and actually the teamwork that was | :43:47. | :43:48. | |
Does it also have an impact when you know that you're | :43:49. | :43:55. | |
coming in to deal with a terrorist-related incident? | :43:56. | :43:58. | |
Some of our families don't understand how it is that | :43:59. | :44:01. | |
everybody else is moving away from an incident, and we're driving | :44:02. | :44:06. | |
So that in itself can be a real sensitivity | :44:07. | :44:13. | |
for us to manage, then, when we get home, as well. | :44:14. | :44:16. | |
Having to explain to an older child why I have left them in the middle | :44:17. | :44:20. | |
of the night and driven towards a terrorist incident is not | :44:21. | :44:23. | |
It's unpredictable, it's scary, everyone is aware that this | :44:24. | :44:30. | |
is going on in central London, where we all are. | :44:31. | :44:32. | |
What was it like for both of you when you got home? | :44:33. | :44:37. | |
Absolutely, my mind was whirring for hours. | :44:38. | :44:40. | |
I tried to go and get some sleep because obviously it had | :44:41. | :44:43. | |
been a very long night, but I wasn't able to sleep for quite | :44:44. | :44:46. | |
a while, it was just going over and over in my head. | :44:47. | :44:49. | |
We do know that one of our colleagues was actually | :44:50. | :44:52. | |
on the bridge at the time of the incident. | :44:53. | :44:56. | |
He came in with one of the emergency services and continued on duty, | :44:57. | :45:01. | |
volunteered and continued right through towards the end | :45:02. | :45:04. | |
of the incident, which I found exceptional. | :45:05. | :45:07. | |
And it was at the end of the incident, he started - | :45:08. | :45:11. | |
you could tell - he started the process of the experience | :45:12. | :45:13. | |
Your work over the weekend, that must make you feel very | :45:14. | :45:17. | |
Everything was just so well done, and everyone did | :45:18. | :45:21. | |
I'm just really proud to work with this team, | :45:22. | :45:25. | |
and they were great, everyone was fantastic. | :45:26. | :45:32. |
