In Egypt - two bombs targeting the Coptic Christian community have | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
A huge data breach at the payday lender Wonga - | :00:33. | :00:37. | |

And Princes William and Harry are among those gathered | :00:42. | :00:45. | |

A British father of two was among the victims of Friday's terror | :00:49. | :01:12. | |
attack in the Swedish capital Stockholm. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Chris Bevington - who was 41 - was among four people killed | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
when a hijacked lorry crashed into a department store. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
Today, as thousands attended a vigil for those who died, | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
more details have been emerging of the man behind the attack. | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
Our correspondent Dan Johnson is in Stockholm. | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
The mood here is still quite subject, two days after the attack, | :01:35. | :01:42. | |
there was a minutes silence, observed with total respect, but | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
people were trying to process the confusion of thoughts that have been | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
circulating over the weekend because of this attack, thinking of the | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
victims, considering what it might mean in terms of changes for the | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
future. And processing the new information that of the four people | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
who died it, two were from overseas and one was a British man who had | :02:03. | :02:11. | |
made his life in Sweden. Talented compassionate and caring, Chris | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
Bevington in the words of his father. He chose to marry and call | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
Sweden home. He had young children here and worked for the music | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
company Spotify. He was here in Stockholm's crowded shopping streets | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
on Friday afternoon when a hijacked truck was turned into a weapon. A | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
Belgian and two Swedish citizens were also killed in the attack. | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
Today investigators revealed more about the man they think was at the | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
wheel. TRANSLATION: We know the suspect showed sympathies for | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
extremist organisations, amongst them Islamic State. He's a | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
39-year-old from Uzbekistan although he hasn't officially been named. He | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
was on the security services radar, although they say he was a marginal | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
figure. His application to stay in Sweden was turned down last summer | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
and the police were looking for him because he had avoided being | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
deported. This is where the truck ended up, smashed against the | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
department store window, people have come here to write messages of hope | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
and a finance and there have been more tributes to the victim 's -- of | :03:19. | :03:28. | |
hope and defiance. Just yards away, a chance to share feelings, try to | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
make sense of them, sadness, anger and fear, of what might happen next. | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
Quite emotional. I'm very sad and angry but it is so wonderful that | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
people have come together. We stand here in solidarity. Not just in | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
Stockholm, but around the world, with everyone, you need Stuart | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
Fielden love that we are together and that we are not afraid -- who | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
needs to field the love. There is spontaneous applause for the | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
Stockholm police, and a challenge to those who threaten the way of life | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
here. If we become scared, replay their hand, -- we play their hand, | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
and this is a good picture of how Sweden reacted. This was a display | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
of multiculturalism, kindness and tolerance, things people recognise | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
could now face a threat. Dan Johnson, BBC News, Stockholm. | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
More than 40 people have been killed and many others wounded | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
in two attacks on Christian Coptic churches in Egypt. | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
One blast - in Tanta, north of Cairo - happened | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
as worshippers were gathering for Palm Sunday. | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
So-called Islamic State has claimed responsibility. | :04:44. | :04:45. | |
This report from our Middle East Correspondent, Yolande Knell. | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
Egyptian Christians had gathered to celebrate one of their holiest days. | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
But this Palm Sunday brought violence. The first deadly its | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
motion was during mass at St George 's Church in Tanta, leaving blood | :05:06. | :05:13. | |
everywhere, wooden pews shattered. Just hours later there was another | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
attack here, in the northern city of Alexandria, this time just outside | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
the church, the dead included police officers who had stopped the suicide | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
bomber from entering, the head of Egypt's Coptic Church had already | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
left. In Rome at Palm Sunday prayers Pope Francis condemned the bombings, | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
he is going to visit Egypt later this month. A recent upsurge in | :05:40. | :05:47. | |
attacks on Egypt's Coptic Christians is causing concern, they are one of | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
the oldest Christian communities in the world and they make up one in | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
ten of the country's mainly Muslim arbitration and in Fabry hundreds | :05:56. | :06:03. | |
fled the so-called Islamic State group which also claimed the latest | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
bombings -- in February. In December nearly 30 were killed in this church | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
explosion in Cairo, and Coptic leaders say Christians feel | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
increasingly threatened. I'm very blessed to be part of a church that | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
has faced discrimination systematically now for decades, and | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
the response to that has always been quite gracious, no retaliation and | :06:26. | :06:34. | |
no violence and I pray this continues, because if we return with | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
violence more people will get hurt. Egypt said this is another attempt | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
to destroy national unity by causing divisions, but the Coptic community | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
says much more needs to be done to make them feel safe in their own | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
country. The body of PC Keith Palmer, | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
who was murdered in the Westminster terror attack, has arrived | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
at the Houses of Parliament, His coffin will lie | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
in rest at the chapel It is an honour traditionally | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
afforded only to great statesmen and women, | :07:09. | :07:17. | |
but this afternoon the body of police constable Keith Palmer | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
arrived at the Palace of Westminster to lie in rest at the Chapel | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
of St Mary Undercroft. The bodies of Baroness Thatcher | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
and Tony Benn were the last to lie here, with the permission | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
of the Queen - the chapel falls Her Majesty agreed that PC | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
Palmer should be granted An ordinary copper who performed | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
an extraordinary act of bravery. Tomorrow PC Palmer's coffin | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
will pass through these gates and pass the exact spot | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
where he lost his life. And then the funeral cortege | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
will make its way across the river through streets lined with police | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
and public to Southwark Today, part of the route | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
was being traced by worshippers from the cathedral at | :08:05. | :08:12. | |
the start of Holy Week. The Dean of Southwark will officiate | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
at tomorrow's funeral. The service will include these | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
verses from St John's Gospel. "To lay down one's life | :08:21. | :08:28. | |
for one's friends". The important thing for me is, | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
tomorrow will be his funeral, something that we need to do | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
to honour him and to help his family But for the rest of us, of course, | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
it's representing that sacrifice which I think we can speak | :08:39. | :08:46. | |
of his death as a kind Tributes to PC Palmer continue to be | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
laid in Parliament Square. His courage and his sacrifice | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
commended at the heart Throughout the night, | :08:55. | :08:56. | |
two police officers will stand beside the constable's body, | :08:57. | :09:04. | |
guarding the man who died Mark Easton, BBC News, | :09:05. | :09:06. | |
the Palace of Westminster. There's been a data breach | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
at the payday loan firm Wonga, involving a quarter | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
of a million customers. Personal details leaked include home | :09:17. | :09:17. | |
addresses and bank details. Joe Lynam, our Business | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
Correspondent is here. What do we know? Summer outside the | :09:21. | :09:33. | |
company Wonga try to access highly personal data -- someone outside the | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
company for top is was names and addresses and Saltcoats and the last | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
four digital credit card numbers. -- sought votes. Glacier has apologised | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
this and it has urged customers to be vigilant, to watch for unusual | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
activity on their bank accounts -- Wonga has apologised. The numbers | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
are pretty huge, 270,000 people in total, most of which are in Britain | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
and that is more than the 160,000 people that were affected by the | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
talk talk breach a couple of years ago, but when the dust settled, the | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
number ended up being considerably smaller. Thanks for joining us. | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
The leader of the UK's biggest trade union, Unite, | :10:19. | :10:20. | |
has demanded that the Labour party investigates what he claims | :10:21. | :10:22. | |
are attempts by some Labour MPs to undermine | :10:23. | :10:24. | |
Len McCluskey's being challenged for the leadership | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
of the union by Gerard Coyne - the result of the contest | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
will be announced at the end of the month, | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
and as our Industry Correspondent John Moylan explains, | :10:34. | :10:34. | |
He's the former Liverpool dock worker who rose to be the most | :10:35. | :10:42. | |
powerful trade union leader in Britain. | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
But he's up against this man, Gerald Coyne, politically | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
to Len McCluskey's right, who believes the UK's biggest | :10:48. | :10:49. | |
Make sure that you do vote, because it is really important. | :10:50. | :11:00. | |
Campaigning in Nottingham, Gerald Coyne says the union needs | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
to focus on the challenge of Brexit, insecure work and the increase | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
of automation, and he is scathing about what he calls Len McCluskey's | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
I am standing because I believe the union has spent too much time | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
messing in Westminster politics, and actually what we need to do | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
is make sure we are focused on making our members's priorities | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
This contest matters, because whoever ends up occupying | :11:20. | :11:26. | |
the general secretary's office on the seventh floor of the Unite | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
headquarters here in London will have an influence, | :11:30. | :11:31. | |
which stretches from workplaces, right through to Westminster. | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
Unite is the UK's biggest trade union, and, of course, | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
it is the biggest donor to the Labour Party. | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
What's more, Len McCluskey has been one of the most powerful | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
supporters of Jeremy Corbyn, and put ?225,000 into Mr Corbyn's | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
He says he is standing by his record, and he rejects | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
We are always driven by Unite's policy, determined by our members. | :11:57. | :12:09. | |
It is my job to make certain their views, their policies, | :12:10. | :12:17. | |
If I have to kick doors down, I will do that, but the idea that | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
I spend too much time meddling in Westminster politics | :12:24. | :12:25. | |
There is a third challenger, seen as politically | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
Ian Allinson says he is the grassroots candidate. | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
I think I am the one candidate in this election that has not worked | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
at the top of the union for decades, and I know the expressions | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
of frustration of members at first hand, and it needs shaking up | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
Seasoned Westminster watchers believe the race could define | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
There is no question that Corbyn will be watching this vote, | :12:52. | :13:01. | |
and will hope it goes the way of Len McCluskey, because | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
if Gerald Coyne wins, he knows he will have another enemy. | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
Whoever wins will lead Unite through to the next election. | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
Voting in this increasingly bitter battle closes in just over a week. | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
Some sport now and Lewis Hamilton has won the Chinese Grand Prix. | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
It was a stop-start race in Shanghai as wet | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
But Hamilton's Mercedes led from the start to take | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel was second, with Max Verstappen | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
third, despite starting in 16th place. | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
The Prince of Wales, President Hollande and the Canadian | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau all gathered in northern France | :13:38. | :13:39. | |
today to mark one of the bloodiest battles of the First World War. | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
More than 3,500 Canadian troops died in four days | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
of fighting at the Battle of Vimy Ridge. | :13:46. | :13:47. | |
Vimy Ridge is a place of loss and remembrance. The Canadians fought, | :13:48. | :14:02. | |
died, and eventually took the hill behind me. And in nearby Arras, | :14:03. | :14:11. | |
where thousands of Scottish troops were also Roman but, major acts of | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
commemoration of the First World War -- were also remembered. | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
It was the battle that defined a nation, in a conflict whose | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
Today's commemoration at Vimy Ridge was a chance for Canada to remember | :14:25. | :14:32. | |
those who fell here and those who rose to the | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
The burden they bore and the country they made, because this, | :14:35. | :14:43. | |
More than 3500 Canadians died in the four days it took | :14:44. | :14:56. | |
An event later described as the moment Canada came of age. | :14:57. | :15:17. | |
Today, beneath a World War I fly past, Prince William | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
and Prince Harry laids boots and poppies, as symbols | :15:21. | :15:22. | |
This was a battlefield of corpses, the Canadians | :15:23. | :15:32. | |
at Vimy embodied the true North, strong and free. | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
In nearby Arras, Scottish losses were also remembered today. | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
That he lay down his life for his friends. The daily rate of | :15:43. | :15:51. | |
casualties was greater than the Somme, amongst those to die was | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
26-year-old Sergeant David would from Edinburgh. We would not be here | :15:56. | :16:03. | |
without them, we would not be free to do what we want, when we want, | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
they fought and died for us and we have got to remember them. There are | :16:08. | :16:15. | |
no more combat veterans alive from the First World War. Vimy Ridge and | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
Arras are amongst the final great acts of commemoration, to honour | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
their sacrifice mourn their loss, and remember their lives. Duncan | :16:27. | :16:33. | |
