:00:32. > :00:35.a Commons vote would be a publicity coup for the militants.

:00:36. > :00:38.The Prime Minister will this week set out his strategy for Syria,

:00:39. > :00:43.He has said he wants to extend airstrikes across the border

:00:44. > :00:46.from Iraq, but no proposal has yet been put to the House of Commons.

:00:47. > :00:54.Here's our political correspondent, Susana Mendonca.

:00:55. > :01:00.RAF tornadoes bound for Iraq. The British Government wants to be able

:01:01. > :01:04.to send them to Syria, but it can't do that unless the Prime Minister

:01:05. > :01:08.can convince enough MPs to back air strikes there. Later this week David

:01:09. > :01:09.Cameron will set out not just the military plan

:01:10. > :01:15.Cameron will set out not just the hopes will sway the doubters. And

:01:16. > :01:19.the Chancellor told Andrew Marr this morning the Government was

:01:20. > :01:23.determined to take action against the so-called Islamic State. We are

:01:24. > :01:28.not going to go to the House of Commons and lose again. That would

:01:29. > :01:32.be a publicity coup for Isil. That would send a terrible message about

:01:33. > :01:37.Britain's role in the world, so we are only going to call a vote when

:01:38. > :01:44.we are confident we will win that vote. Two years ago the Government

:01:45. > :01:45.put it to the vote and lost. This time they

:01:46. > :01:51.put it to the vote and lost. This mandate for military action, but the

:01:52. > :01:55.Labour leader is reluctant to engage in air strikes, and his party is

:01:56. > :01:59.divided on the issue. His Shadow Chancellor indicated that Labour MPs

:02:00. > :02:03.might get a free vote on the issue though. What will happen is we will

:02:04. > :02:07.consider this in Shadow Cabinet and then we'll go to the parliamentary

:02:08. > :02:11.Labour Party. Most of those MPs will be consulting their local

:02:12. > :02:16.constituency parties, and then we'll come to a considered view. My view

:02:17. > :02:20.has always been I think Parliament should act as Parliament not on a

:02:21. > :02:24.party political basis and we should arrive at a view that's in the best

:02:25. > :02:28.interests of the country. Since the attacks by IS on Paris tensions have

:02:29. > :02:32.been raised about the ability of the police in England to respond to

:02:33. > :02:37.similar incidents in the face of cuts to their conducts expected in

:02:38. > :02:40.this week's Spending Review. The Chancellor said there is no

:02:41. > :02:44.suggestion that policing cuts would be off the cards Every public

:02:45. > :02:47.service has to make sure it is spending money well, but we will

:02:48. > :02:52.make sure that Britain is properly defended against the terrorist

:02:53. > :02:55.threat. Look, I would make a broader point about this Spending Review.

:02:56. > :03:00.You cannot have national security without economic security. When the

:03:01. > :03:03.Prime Minister heads to Paris tomorrow, he'll speak again of the

:03:04. > :03:08.need to stand shoulder to shoulder with our allies. What he hopes is

:03:09. > :03:12.that he'll get the support he needs to make that a reality.

:03:13. > :03:15.Belgium's police forces are looking for several terror suspects,

:03:16. > :03:19.as the capital, Brussels, enters a second day of a security lockdown.

:03:20. > :03:23.Interior Minister Jan Jambon said the current threat was greater than

:03:24. > :03:26.that posed by the man they are looking for, Salah Abdeslam, in

:03:27. > :03:34.Christian Fraser is in Brussels for us.

:03:35. > :03:41.Gavin, thank you. We are in the cultural centre of Brussels, which

:03:42. > :03:45.typically would be busy on a Sunday, but many of the galleries and art

:03:46. > :03:50.museums are closed today. The Central Station behind me has a

:03:51. > :03:56.visible security presence, and the gothic tower at the back here,

:03:57. > :04:00.there's an armoured personnel carrier parked in the main square, a

:04:01. > :04:05.focal point in Brussels. So no change in the security situation and

:04:06. > :04:09.no change in the hunt for Salah Abdeslam, the missing gunman. But we

:04:10. > :04:14.have had a rather interesting interview today from the Belgian

:04:15. > :04:17.channel RTL, which spoke to his brother, Mohammed, who again has

:04:18. > :04:21.urged him to give himself up. He said he would rather see limb in a

:04:22. > :04:27.prison than in a cemetery. He insisted that there was no sign

:04:28. > :04:31.whatsoever to the brothers that within radicalised. They had stopped

:04:32. > :04:35.praying and had started drinking but it wasn't a clue that they had

:04:36. > :04:39.become fanatics. I'm told the Government will make a decision on

:04:40. > :04:42.the security level in three hours' time, but there is no indication

:04:43. > :04:47.that the terror threat will be relaxed. Nothing has changed since

:04:48. > :04:51.last night. One interesting development, the International

:04:52. > :04:56.Tennis Federation has expressed its concerns about the security threat.

:04:57. > :05:00.There's a big game expected here in the weekend, Great Britain taking on

:05:01. > :05:05.Belgium yum in the final of the Davis Cup. We are told that Andy

:05:06. > :05:10.Murray and the team will delay departure until Monday. Thank you.

:05:11. > :05:13.The names of four Britons killed in a helicopter crash in

:05:14. > :05:16.They were Nigel and Cynthia Charlton from Hampshire,

:05:17. > :05:18.and Andrew Virco and Katharine Walker, both from Cambridge.

:05:19. > :05:20.In all, seven people died when the aircraft came down on

:05:21. > :05:23.Fox Glacier on the country's South Island, from where our

:05:24. > :05:34.For Katharine Walker it was moment to be the holiday of a lifetime. It

:05:35. > :05:37.ended in tragedy. The Head of Radio therapy at Addenbrooke's Hospital in

:05:38. > :05:45.Cambridge, one of seven people killed, along with her partner,

:05:46. > :05:49.Andrew Virco. Nigel and Cynthia Charlton from Hampshire also died.

:05:50. > :05:54.Today there were fresh efforts to recover the bodies. Relays of

:05:55. > :05:59.helicopters making the most of a brief break in the weather. Three

:06:00. > :06:07.bodies were winched off the mountain. Four are still trapped. We

:06:08. > :06:12.have started body recovery. We did that by winching people from

:06:13. > :06:18.helicopters on to the ice and are recovering a number of bodies. But

:06:19. > :06:24.it is difficult work. This is the helicopter that crashed. Now looking

:06:25. > :06:29.like a crumpled toy, wedged in a massive crevasse, 800 metres up the

:06:30. > :06:34.glacier. Fresh pictures of the debris field have emerged. Today the

:06:35. > :06:40.company that operated the flight and lost a pilot expressed its

:06:41. > :06:45.condolences. The pilots meeting this morning was very sombre and we had a

:06:46. > :06:50.very moving moment with them. I do feel for the families involved, for

:06:51. > :06:56.the community. And in the afternoon, the bad weather came in again. The

:06:57. > :07:03.glacier shrouded in cloud, snow and hail. The recovery effort forced to

:07:04. > :07:07.be called off for the day. Night has fallen in this tiny remote community

:07:08. > :07:12.that has been profoundly shocked by this crash. Recovery efforts will

:07:13. > :07:16.resume in the morning, but with several more days of bad weather

:07:17. > :07:20.forecast the authorities are warning that it could take time before all

:07:21. > :07:25.of the bodies are retrieved. The Church of England says it's

:07:26. > :07:28.bewildered by a decision by leading cinemas not to screen a Christmas

:07:29. > :07:31.advert featuring the Lord's Prayer. Digital Cinema Media,

:07:32. > :07:34.which sells cinema advertising, said it didn't accept political or

:07:35. > :07:37.religious adverts. Here's our religious affairs

:07:38. > :07:58.correspondent, Caroline Wyatt. We filmed as the advert featuring

:07:59. > :08:01.the Lord's Prayer was being prepared.

:08:02. > :08:03.Whoever designed this prayer obviously seemed to have found

:08:04. > :08:05.the language and words that makes one feel as

:08:06. > :08:13.The idea is to give a new voice to an ancient message,

:08:14. > :08:22.to ensure that it is heard well beyond the church walls by every

:08:23. > :08:31.This was the final ad, approved for showing in cinemas.

:08:32. > :08:35.But it was then refused by the group that sells cinema advertising.

:08:36. > :08:37.In a statement, Digital Cinema Media told us it had

:08:38. > :08:39.a policy of not accepting political or religious advertising.

:08:40. > :08:50.We find that really astonishing, disappointing, certainly,

:08:51. > :09:06.We freely invite people to make up their own mind.

:09:07. > :09:08.But the refusal to show it in cinemas may provoke some

:09:09. > :09:10.soul-searching about the place of religion

:09:11. > :09:23.The cinema chain might if it took this advert be even more at risk if

:09:24. > :09:27.it was sued if it decided not to take another advert for another

:09:28. > :09:32.religion or indeed a cult. I can understand why they don't want to do

:09:33. > :09:34.that. The Church of England's advert celebrating the Lord's Prayer is now

:09:35. > :09:42.on their website instead. You can see more on all of today's

:09:43. > :09:45.stories on the BBC News Channel. The next news on BBC One is

:09:46. > :09:47.at 5.50pm. Hello there. This weekend has

:09:48. > :10:05.brought some of the Hello there. This weekend has

:10:06. > :10:08.weather we've had in a little while. Temperatures last night got down

:10:09. > :10:11.weather we've had in a little while. as low as minus 6 in some sports

:10:12. > :10:15.we'll see something similar tonight. After the week ahead after that

:10:16. > :10:16.frosty start things turn more unsettled.
