:00:15. > :00:17.Kenyan shopping centre siege. Tonight, a stand off between the
:00:17. > :00:23.army and Islamist militants continues. They're thought to be
:00:23. > :00:26.surrounded on one floor. New footage emerges of the moment the gunmen
:00:26. > :00:36.attacked a supermarket, where it's reported they could still be holding
:00:36. > :00:40.a number of hostages. It is a sickening and despicable attack of
:00:40. > :00:44.appalling brutality. What we know is that three British national have
:00:45. > :00:48.been killed. Because the situation is ongoing we should prepare
:00:48. > :00:51.ourselves for further bad news. With some reports tonight that the army
:00:51. > :00:54.maybe trying to bring the seige to an end, we'll have the very latest.
:00:54. > :00:57.Also on the programme... Angela Merkel looks set to return as
:00:57. > :01:03.Germany's chancellor as exit polls suggest her party has made big gains
:01:03. > :01:05.in the country's elections. As the Labour Party conference gets

:01:36. > :01:42.Good evening. 68 people, including three Britons, are now known to have
:01:43. > :01:48.died in the attack on a shopping centre in Nairobi by Somali
:01:48. > :01:50.militants. Tonight a stand off between Kenyan security forces and
:01:50. > :01:53.the attackers, who claim to be from the Islamist group Al Shabab, is
:01:53. > :02:00.ongoing, with an unknown number of hostages still being held. David
:02:00. > :02:08.Cameron condemned the attack as despicable and sickening and has
:02:08. > :02:10.offered British assistance. Our East Africa correspondent
:02:10. > :02:18.Gabriel Gatehouse is at the scene. Gabriel.
:02:18. > :02:25.This evening, Kenya's disaster operation centre tweeted, this will
:02:25. > :02:30.end tonight and our forces will prevail. Standing where I am, just
:02:30. > :02:33.yards from the shopping centre, things are calm but people are
:02:33. > :02:37.twitchy. About half an hour before we came on air, suddenly they got
:02:37. > :02:42.the wind up them. They were running away from the shopping centre,
:02:42. > :02:47.soldiers and armed policemen cocking their guns and crouching for cover
:02:47. > :02:51.behind vehicles. At the moment we cannot see or hear anything that
:02:51. > :03:00.looks like a final push going on inside there and so, the stand-off
:03:00. > :03:04.continues. It is in this supermarket that at least some of the attackers
:03:04. > :03:10.are believed to be holed up. Tonight, new 30 J emerged of the
:03:10. > :03:23.moment the attack began. -- news footage. In the panic that followed,
:03:23. > :03:30.hundreds ran for their lives as gunmen threw grenades and spread the
:03:30. > :03:33.complex with machine gun fire. -- sprayed the complex. Kenyan forces
:03:34. > :03:37.entered the building, trying to flush out the militants as they
:03:37. > :03:44.secured different areas. Others were able to escape. Still, it is not
:03:44. > :03:48.over. A number of foreign countries, including Britain, have
:03:48. > :03:55.been assisting the Kenyans in this most delicate of situations - a
:03:55. > :03:58.hostage crisis. It is an absolutely sickening and despicable attack of
:03:59. > :04:03.appalling brutality. What we know is that three British nationals have
:04:03. > :04:08.been killed. Because the situation is ongoing, we should prepare
:04:08. > :04:11.ourselves for further bad news. Outside the shopping centre, anxious
:04:11. > :04:16.relatives have gathered in the hope of news, any news, of loved ones
:04:16. > :04:20.still trapped inside. This British man says his wife and young daughter
:04:20. > :04:24.were inside when the attack took place and he has had no word from
:04:24. > :04:30.them since. We did not want to give his name. The emotion, I just keep
:04:30. > :04:32.them since. We did not want to give breaking up. All I am hoping is that
:04:32. > :04:35.they are safe, they are hiding, and breaking up. All I am hoping is that
:04:35. > :04:42.they are just waiting for time to come out. As they wait for a
:04:42. > :04:46.resolution, many Kenyans have been giving blood to help the wounded and
:04:46. > :04:52.perhaps in anticipation of worse still to come. They shall not get
:04:52. > :05:01.away with their despicable and beastly acts. Like the cowardly
:05:01. > :05:09.perpetrators now cornered in the building, we will punish the
:05:09. > :05:13.mastermind is swiftly and painfully. As the security forces continue
:05:13. > :05:15.their operations inside, Kenya's soldiers are on the ground in
:05:15. > :05:22.their operations inside, Kenya's Somalia battling Al-Shabab, the
:05:22. > :05:25.Al-Qaeda linked group that says it carried out this attack. Now, the
:05:25. > :05:31.militants are bringing the fight to the heart of the Kenyan capital.
:05:31. > :05:37.Despite the cam here tonight, there is a sense that this stand-off, now
:05:37. > :05:42.entering its third day, cannot last a lot longer. The army says it is
:05:42. > :05:45.looking to bring it to a speedy conclusion but also says its
:05:45. > :05:47.overriding concern is to bring the remaining hostages out alive.
:05:47. > :05:50.The group claiming responsibility for the attack, Al-Shabab, is based
:05:50. > :05:53.in neighbouring Somalia. A militant Islamist group, they used to control
:05:53. > :06:00.large parts of the country before African Union forces, with United
:06:00. > :06:03.Nations support, pushed them back. They still remain a threat however,
:06:03. > :06:06.as Mark Doyle found out when he accompanied African Union soldiers
:06:06. > :06:15.on patrol in the city of Kismayo - a former Al-Shabab stronghold.
:06:15. > :06:25.Heading into Kismayo with African union troops. A year ago, it was
:06:25. > :06:28.held by Al-Shabab, with an estimated 5000 fighters still controlling most
:06:28. > :06:34.of the countryside. The Islamists still mount hit and run attacks.
:06:34. > :06:43.Victims of an Al-Shabab suicide car bombing in a dilapidated Kismayo
:06:43. > :06:48.General Hospital. This doctor runs a place as best he can. It is hard
:06:48. > :06:57.being a hospital in Somalia. You have so many patients. We are
:06:57. > :07:07.doctors who begin with the most difficult cases. If you begin with
:07:07. > :07:12.someone, others might take the runway and might kill you or injure
:07:12. > :07:14.you. Nearby, we found people living in a rubbish tip. Like hundreds of
:07:14. > :07:17.you. Nearby, we found people living thousands of others they have fled
:07:17. > :07:23.the fighting across the region. These soldiers are Kenyan. They
:07:23. > :07:28.moved into southern Somalia after Al-Shabab attacked towns and
:07:28. > :07:31.villages inside Kenya. Now, they fight under the banner of the
:07:31. > :07:42.African Union, backed by the United Nations. It is a difficult war to
:07:42. > :07:46.win. It is slow, but we cannot give up and say that because it is a
:07:46. > :07:49.difficult war we will stop. We must continue fighting this war. Somalia
:07:49. > :07:52.difficult war we will stop. We must needs outside help because it's own
:07:53. > :07:57.government forces are a jumbled collection of armed men loyal to
:07:57. > :08:02.different warlords. It is all very well the international forces being
:08:02. > :08:07.here, but the solution will have to come at the hands of men like
:08:07. > :08:11.these, the local forces. I am not quite sure what the shooting is but
:08:11. > :08:15.perhaps we should take some cover. The course of the shooting turned
:08:15. > :08:16.out to be an argument at a checkpoint. Arguments escalate
:08:16. > :08:22.out to be an argument at a quickly in Somalia. At night, every
:08:22. > :08:32.night since I have been in Kismayo, the real thing. Al-Shabab try to add
:08:32. > :08:36.France... -- advance... The African Union forces tried to push them
:08:36. > :08:39.back, for now. Angela Merkel appears to have won
:08:39. > :08:43.another four years as Chancellor in Germany. The official results of the
:08:43. > :08:45.general election won't be declared for several hours, but exit polls
:08:45. > :08:48.suggest that her Christian Democrats will be the biggest party, with a
:08:48. > :08:59.commanding lead over the Social Democrats. This report does contain
:08:59. > :09:05.some flash photography. Angela Merkel's party headquarters,
:09:06. > :09:09.as exit polls were announced. Europe's most powerful politician
:09:09. > :09:16.had scored a stunning personal victory and a third term as
:09:16. > :09:20.Chancellor. TRANSLATION: Dear friends, as the jubilation shows, we
:09:20. > :09:26.can be happy about this super results. The result was interpreted
:09:26. > :09:33.as a tribute to her steady leadership during the eurozone
:09:33. > :09:37.crisis. It is a landslide victory. Everybody is enthusiastic about it.
:09:37. > :09:42.It is perhaps the biggest victory of a Democratic party in Germany for
:09:42. > :09:45.the last 20 years. Although Angela Merkel's supporters are delighted
:09:46. > :09:50.with the way the party polls, there is some disappointment. The party
:09:50. > :09:53.they were in coalition with may not have passed the threshold in order
:09:53. > :10:01.to have any seats in the next Parliament. Supporters of that
:10:01. > :10:07.party, the Liberal Free Democrats, watched in stunned silence at their
:10:07. > :10:10.defeat. It may be that Angela Merkel's conservatives can win an
:10:10. > :10:15.absolute majority on their own. But she might yet be forced into a grand
:10:15. > :10:22.coalition with the opposition, leading to weeks of haggling. It is
:10:22. > :10:26.important Germany has a strong government, for Germany and Europe.
:10:26. > :10:30.That is what we will work on. Despite Angela Merkel's triumph, it
:10:30. > :10:36.was not difficult to find voices critical of her policy of rescuing
:10:36. > :10:40.weaker and eurozone countries. TRANSLATION: She sends so much money
:10:40. > :10:48.to these other countries but when it comes to our own people, it is
:10:48. > :10:52.Germany, I am sorry, I cannot support these politics. A new
:10:52. > :10:57.Euro-sceptic Parliament has come very close to winning seats in
:10:57. > :11:01.parliament at the first attempt. Even after Angela Merkel's great
:11:01. > :11:06.success, she is still likely, over Europe, to act cautiously.
:11:06. > :11:09.Ed Miliband has come under fire from business figures for his new policy
:11:09. > :11:11.of making larger employers take on an apprentice for every skilled
:11:11. > :11:17.foreign worker they employ from outside the European Union. It's
:11:17. > :11:19.among a raft of polices that Mr Miliband is announcing that he says
:11:19. > :11:22.among a raft of polices that Mr will tackle a cost of living
:11:22. > :11:28."crisis" in the UK. Our deputy political editor James Landale
:11:28. > :11:32.reports from Brighton. He is waiting in the wings of
:11:32. > :11:37.British politics, hoping to lead his party into government. With his poll
:11:37. > :11:41.ratings down and the economy up, Ed Miliband acknowledged he had a tough
:11:41. > :11:46.fight ahead. Yellow mag we have listened, learned and are ready to
:11:46. > :11:50.lead. Today, he promised Labour would try to get immigration down,
:11:50. > :11:52.with medium to large company is forced to hire an apprentice for
:11:52. > :11:59.every skilled worker they employ from outside the EU. In our first
:11:59. > :12:06.year in office we will legislate for an Immigration Bill which secures
:12:06. > :12:11.the borders, and cracks down on exploitation, and says to big
:12:11. > :12:16.companies that they can bring people from outside the EU, but they have
:12:16. > :12:23.got to train the next generation. Unusually, one Tory minister been
:12:23. > :12:30.doing and denounced the policy as unworkable. Others said it was an
:12:31. > :12:34.apprentice tax. Most business people would have been very surprised to
:12:34. > :12:37.see a policy that creates red tape and costs for them, rather than
:12:37. > :12:43.address fundamental issues around growth. Like the buses, Labour
:12:43. > :12:49.policies are queueing up. All-day childcare, a -- an end to housing
:12:49. > :12:53.benefit cuts, and the hope to increase the minimum wage with
:12:53. > :12:56.bigger fines for firms who do not pay it. The question is whether
:12:56. > :12:59.policies like this taken together will give voters a sense of what
:12:59. > :13:03.Labour would do in Guzman. The risk is that by focusing on how Labour
:13:03. > :13:07.would help people with the cost of living, the party says less about
:13:07. > :13:13.what it would do with the economy. Tonight, Mr Miliband and his team
:13:13. > :13:19.announced they had asked the Office for Budget Responsibility to tag all
:13:19. > :13:24.their -- check all of their tax and spending promises. They need to be
:13:24. > :13:29.able to trust their leader and many delegates came hearing that a new
:13:29. > :13:33.poll suggests only 17% of voters think Mr Miliband is up to the job
:13:33. > :13:41.of Prime Minister. They also heard on the conference floor some weighty
:13:41. > :13:42.criticism. Be assured, the collective voices of millions of
:13:43. > :13:46.criticism. Be assured, the working people and their families,
:13:46. > :13:48.and 100 years of shared history, will not be washed away or sold for
:13:48. > :13:54.an electoral gimmick. Ed Miliband will not be washed away or sold for
:13:54. > :13:58.begins his conference facing the unions, the polls and his critics.
:13:58. > :14:01.With less than 20 months to the election, he cannot afford to blink
:14:01. > :14:05.first. Well our political editor Nick
:14:05. > :14:08.Robinson is in Brighton. It appears every time Labour makes a policy
:14:08. > :14:15.announcement there's concern about whether the figures add up?
:14:15. > :14:20.They know here at Labour there is tension between, on the one hand,
:14:20. > :14:25.saying anything, any promises that allow the Conservatives to say, told
:14:25. > :14:28.you so, Labour want to spend more, tax more and borrow more, and a
:14:28. > :14:32.danger on the other hand that people say, are you going to do anything
:14:32. > :14:37.different from the coalition at all? What do you really stand for as a
:14:37. > :14:41.party? What is interesting is that it is clear in the words of one
:14:41. > :14:46.senior Labour figure that the party has decided to take, a gamble. In
:14:46. > :14:54.other words, to spell out the list of policy changes, which will allow
:14:54. > :14:59.the Tories to say, where is the money coming from? Labour says it
:14:59. > :15:00.has got the answer to that and the Office for Budget Responsibility
:15:00. > :15:03.could, if they chose to, guarantee Office for Budget Responsibility
:15:03. > :15:08.those figures. The Tory Treasury team say it would be dragging an
:15:08. > :15:12.independent body into politics. It is an argument about the nature of
:15:12. > :15:15.what Labour can and can't afford that will run for a long time.
:15:15. > :15:18.In Pakistan, more than 70 seventy people have been killed in a suicide
:15:18. > :15:21.bombing at a church in the north western city of Peshawar. Two
:15:21. > :15:30.bombers detonated devices as hundreds of Christians were leaving

:15:35. > :15:40.had long been dreading - they had just been at church at a packed
:15:40. > :15:44.Sunday mass, when two suicide bombers got amongst the congregation
:15:44. > :15:52.and blew themselves up. Dozens of men, women and children were killed,

:15:56. > :15:59.there are complaints the authorities did not take the threat seriously

:18:44. > :18:48.streets of London last summer, he was just plain Bradley Wiggins. Life
:18:48. > :18:53.has changed since, but his cycling form has dipped. This has been a

:18:57. > :19:04.giving the supporters who so warmed to him last summer to demonstrate
:19:04. > :19:10.cycling's return to popularity. There is a combination of the
:19:10. > :19:14.Olympic effect and the presence of Wiggins and Cavendish to bring large
:19:14. > :19:18.crowds to the streets of London. Cavendish began in the lead. He just
:19:18. > :19:26.needed to prevent anybody breaking away. He was happy to see a bunch
:19:27. > :19:31.finish. Mark Cavendish claimed his third stage win of the comeback
