:00:00. > 3:59:596pm. It's goodbye from me and on BBC One, we join our teams where you
:00:00. > :00:11.are. Tonight, accusations of unnecessary
:00:12. > :00:17.violence as a police officer appears to throw punches at a student
:00:18. > :00:21.protest at the University of London. Police were hitting people and
:00:22. > :00:26.shoving people all over the place. And today, more scuffles. Also
:00:27. > :00:31.tonight, the practising Christian fighting for the legal right not to
:00:32. > :00:35.work on Sundays. A royal opening for the Greenwich
:00:36. > :00:41.Equestrian Centre, celebrating the Olympic legacy of the borough.
:00:42. > :00:44.Recreating the Long walk to freedom. We talked to the stars of the new
:00:45. > :00:56.Nelson Mandela film, live on the red carpet.
:00:57. > :01:02.Good evening. Welcome to the programme. First, accusations that
:01:03. > :01:06.some police officers used unnecessary violence to end a
:01:07. > :01:11.student sit in at the University of London. Footage appears to show an
:01:12. > :01:13.officer throwing two punches. There were numerous skirmishes and three
:01:14. > :01:18.arrests as police stopped the demonstration last night. The
:01:19. > :01:24.Metropolitan Police say that there has been no official complaints.
:01:25. > :01:28.This afternoon, more protests. This footage appears to show a
:01:29. > :01:33.police officer punching a man in a black booty. Look again. The
:01:34. > :01:39.officer's left`hand seems to strike him in the face, and then this. This
:01:40. > :01:43.time, a woman appears to be dragged by other officers. Both of these
:01:44. > :01:47.videos were taken last night and passed to BBC London today. Other
:01:48. > :01:50.students say that they saw the police being heavy`handed. The
:01:51. > :01:55.police were hitting and shoving people all over the place. There was
:01:56. > :02:00.no violence in the occupation. All of the violence came from the
:02:01. > :02:07.security staff, beating people up. Police people beating `` police
:02:08. > :02:12.beating people up. The students were protesting against plans to close
:02:13. > :02:13.the student union. At 5pm, the staff were escorted from the building
:02:14. > :02:15.before were escorted from the building
:02:16. > :02:18.protesters were ordered to leave one hour later. At 7:20pm, the police
:02:19. > :02:25.and security staff removed protesters. The University said they
:02:26. > :02:28.called the police because they were worried about staff and described
:02:29. > :02:33.the behaviour of students yesterday as aggressive and dating. But
:02:34. > :02:36.students who gathered today are unconvinced. `` aggressive and
:02:37. > :02:42.intimidating. We were peaceful and the police got violent. Ice are a
:02:43. > :02:47.student being dragged by the neck. I cannot imagine doing anything that
:02:48. > :02:52.have warrants, physical brutality from the police. The mix of police
:02:53. > :03:01.and protesters, too many police, that made the mood confrontational.
:03:02. > :03:04.The protest today was in response to yesterday's events. 200 students
:03:05. > :03:08.gathered at the University of London and was a big police presence to
:03:09. > :03:15.match. In the last few minutes, police vans have arrived. It was not
:03:16. > :03:19.`` it was very peaceful but tension has risen. Police have confirmed
:03:20. > :03:23.that they have not received any complaints about the conduct of
:03:24. > :03:30.their officers last night. Coming up later, it looks like the
:03:31. > :03:34.storm in the North is going to have a pasty sting in its tail for us. I
:03:35. > :03:37.will have the details later in the programme.
:03:38. > :03:46.`` a Nazis staying. A police officer has told the
:03:47. > :03:49.inquest into the death of Mark Duggan that the suggestion that he
:03:50. > :03:52.planted a gun at the scene was highly offensive will stop the
:03:53. > :03:58.witness giving evidence anonymously denied that he was a liar during
:03:59. > :04:04.exchanges with the lawyer representing Duggan's family.
:04:05. > :04:08.The senior firearms officer, known only as the 59, returns to the High
:04:09. > :04:13.Court today to explain why his evidence about what happened at the
:04:14. > :04:21.scene of Mark Duggan's shooting has changed since he appeared in court
:04:22. > :04:25.in October. V59 Initially told investigators that he instructed
:04:26. > :04:31.back`up firearms officers to secure a gun that had been found on ground
:04:32. > :04:34.close to the incident. But now he said he was mistaken and that
:04:35. > :04:38.conversation must have happened later. Mr Thomas, for the family,
:04:39. > :04:46.suggested that footage taken by a resident in a tower block nearby, in
:04:47. > :04:48.the aftermath of the shooting, challenged V59's account, and
:04:49. > :04:51.suggested that he and his colleagues pointed the gun. Mr Thomas went on
:04:52. > :05:09.to say: V59, speaking from buying the
:05:10. > :05:13.screen, said that he was confused about timings of when he gave
:05:14. > :05:19.specific instructions to officers in the immediate aftermath of this
:05:20. > :05:24.shooting. The jury is not expected to hear any more evidence and the
:05:25. > :05:33.judge says he plans to begin summing up to the jury next week.
:05:34. > :05:38.A former Superbike rider has been arrested on suspicion of murdering
:05:39. > :05:41.his wife in Dubai. Sean Emmett was stranded in the Gulf state for ten
:05:42. > :05:51.months after his wife fell from a hotel window. He had just had his
:05:52. > :05:55.passport returned, and flew in this morning.
:05:56. > :05:59.The Surrey police said they made several arrests last night. Apple is
:06:00. > :06:03.linked to human trafficking were targeted, as well as businesses
:06:04. > :06:09.suspected of handling stolen goods. The Chancellor has said that foreign
:06:10. > :06:12.investment buying `` foreign investors buying property in London
:06:13. > :06:16.will soon pay capital gains tax. The announcement comes after accusations
:06:17. > :06:23.that foreign buyers are driving up property prices in the capital.
:06:24. > :06:26.They have been held partly responsible for pushing house prices
:06:27. > :06:31.through the roof. In prime locations especially. But no foreign investors
:06:32. > :06:36.are to become liable for capital gains tax. I think it is unlikely
:06:37. > :06:40.that the tax will put a lot of people off. There is a risk that it
:06:41. > :06:45.sends out an issue that the taxation of foreign owned property is
:06:46. > :06:49.something that will be looked at in the run`up to the election, but the
:06:50. > :06:54.tax itself is not so severe as to have an impact on people's desire to
:06:55. > :06:57.buy. The Treasury insists that this is not designed to deter investors
:06:58. > :07:02.from buying and selling property in the capital, simply to deal with an
:07:03. > :07:06.anomaly in the tax system. In the scheme of things, it will not make
:07:07. > :07:11.that much money. The early estimate is about ?15 million in 2016, ?40
:07:12. > :07:14.million the next year and ?70 million the router. While it is
:07:15. > :07:18.welcome, because hopefully million the next year and ?70
:07:19. > :07:21.million the router. While it it will come `` Kama the housing market, the
:07:22. > :07:25.bigger issue is that we need to build more homes. The problem we
:07:26. > :07:30.have seen is that the government has been stalking house prices with
:07:31. > :07:33.different measures, like up to buy, but not enough is being done on the
:07:34. > :07:40.supply side, where we are seeing the lowest rate of new build
:07:41. > :07:43.internationally since the 20s. It is not expected that people will start
:07:44. > :07:49.selling up until `` when this comes into course because current owners
:07:50. > :07:53.will not pay any capital gains until after this comes in, in 2015. We are
:07:54. > :08:01.seeing this in relation to other regime changes, other rule changes,
:08:02. > :08:04.whether it is a question of self`assessment. We have had to
:08:05. > :08:09.calculate the value of a particular property at a set date in order to
:08:10. > :08:12.cater for tax change. And the issues of valuation and how the tax will be
:08:13. > :08:18.permitted will now be subject to consultation.
:08:19. > :08:25.`` tax will be implemented. What else happened? He allowed local
:08:26. > :08:32.authorities across the country ?300 million more headroom to borrow, to
:08:33. > :08:36.build more rooms. London council will say that is not enough. He also
:08:37. > :08:41.suggested that the should be a blitz on trying to sell the more expensive
:08:42. > :08:45.social housing. So that you could then build more, numerically. That
:08:46. > :08:50.could impact on the centre of London. Help for small businesses,
:08:51. > :08:54.as expected. They welcomed that there will not be an inflation rise,
:08:55. > :08:59.and the business rate will be capped at 2%. And there were measures to
:09:00. > :09:01.improve the high streets. He mentioned Brentford, a town centre
:09:02. > :09:05.which has been concerned about the number of vacancies and the problems
:09:06. > :09:11.in that High Street. Offering a ?1000 discount on rates for
:09:12. > :09:19.properties in places like Brentford, and also for new businesses, to get
:09:20. > :09:23.them in, offering them a half the rates for a period of time, to
:09:24. > :09:26.attract businesses into vacant premises. And what is this about
:09:27. > :09:31.train fares you make this has urged today, and appears to show the
:09:32. > :09:36.government and City Hall are not speaking as one. This is related to
:09:37. > :09:42.real fears. The Chancellor, quite a surprise, said he was quick to be
:09:43. > :09:47.taking real fears and inflation today. Three days ago, you will
:09:48. > :09:51.remember that the mayor set his package out. He was assuming that
:09:52. > :09:55.the Chancellor was like to put inflation plus 1% on the fares. This
:09:56. > :10:00.is crucial when you think about travel cards. He is charging people
:10:01. > :10:03.next year in London, 1% above inflation because he thought that
:10:04. > :10:08.would be a big component of rail. The Chancellor has said, no, real
:10:09. > :10:14.fears are going to be lower. `` rail fares. Labour, for instance, have
:10:15. > :10:18.said straightaway that he has to bring down the travel cards, the
:10:19. > :10:23.price. Three days after he told us that he is bring it in.
:10:24. > :10:30.What we need is for the May two play catch up and actually bring down the
:10:31. > :10:35.costs of season tickets. `` the mayor Ayr play catch up. He cannot
:10:36. > :10:41.sensibly put them up above the rate that the government is suggesting.
:10:42. > :10:44.City Hall is saying that they are relaxed about this but there is
:10:45. > :10:50.something here. I know that TEFL officials had no idea that this was
:10:51. > :10:54.going to happen. `` Transport for London. One official said it was
:10:55. > :10:57.shafting the mere because he has already decided on his policy and
:10:58. > :11:02.now there is money available for the Chancellor and it does not look as
:11:03. > :11:06.if London is going to get it. According to City Hall, there is a
:11:07. > :11:10.statement year, congratulating George on holding down next year's
:11:11. > :11:16.real fears for all passengers, wherever they are in the country. ``
:11:17. > :11:22.rail fares. It is not at all clear that there will be the case. Tim
:11:23. > :11:25.Donovan. Police in Southend are investigating
:11:26. > :11:29.the possibility that a mother killed her son before taking her own life
:11:30. > :11:39.after starting a fire in their car. The bodies of Catherine mlaba and
:11:40. > :11:42.her son, 10p Mack, were found on Tuesday evening.
:11:43. > :11:46.A Christian woman has lost the latest round of her legal battle not
:11:47. > :11:56.to be forced to work on Sundays. 50 age old Celestina Mba wanted to
:11:57. > :12:00.claim this directive dismissal. For the reasons it's played in the
:12:01. > :12:03.judgement, the appeal is dismissed. The moment that Celestina Mba lost
:12:04. > :12:09.her latest legal battle to have Sundays off work. She is a Baptist,
:12:10. > :12:12.and cared for autistic children at a centre run by the council. She
:12:13. > :12:16.claimed that she had an agreement with her employer that she would be
:12:17. > :12:21.able to observe the fourth commandment, to rest and pray on the
:12:22. > :12:25.Sabbath. But after two years, she claims the council put on weekend
:12:26. > :12:30.shifts, forcing her to resign. An employment tribunal overruled her
:12:31. > :12:37.claim of constructive dismissal, and so now has a Court of Appeal. But
:12:38. > :12:41.there was an important legal victory for Celestina. All three members of
:12:42. > :12:43.the court have identified a legal error in the decision of the
:12:44. > :12:49.voluntary Google. There is some difference between us in our
:12:50. > :12:54.analysis. At the heart of the legal argument was whether or not the
:12:55. > :12:59.fourth commandment is a core component of the Christian faith.
:13:00. > :13:01.They tribunal says that it is not. The Court of Appeal says that that
:13:02. > :13:05.was a legal mistake will stop illegal judges ruled that the faith
:13:06. > :13:10.of the individual believers should be recognised and protected.
:13:11. > :13:18.Actually, they have acknowledged that the Christian faith, having
:13:19. > :13:21.Sunday off is a core component. What inspired you to bring this case
:13:22. > :13:28.forward and keep fighting so hard? Jesus. Jesus. Because Jesus is
:13:29. > :13:31.everything. Everything to Christians. In a statement, the
:13:32. > :13:54.leader of the council said: Although her appeal failed because
:13:55. > :13:58.she was contractually obliged to work Sundays, Christian campaigners
:13:59. > :14:02.say a court's acknowledgement that religious beliefs should be
:14:03. > :14:11.protected could turn the tide and Christians being marginalised in the
:14:12. > :14:14.workplace. It's the new home Brentford have been dreaming of for
:14:15. > :14:18.more than a decade. And tonight they'll find out whether plans for a
:14:19. > :14:21.new 20,000 seater stadium close to the club's current ground will be
:14:22. > :14:24.approved. But some people in the area are not happy with some aspects
:14:25. > :14:32.of the redevelopment. Chris Slegg has the story. Griffin Park, an
:14:33. > :14:36.intimate ground, not even the cameraman gets a clear view for big
:14:37. > :14:40.games like this win over Premier League Everton. This place has been
:14:41. > :14:44.home to Brentford since 1904. It gives rise to that famous piece of
:14:45. > :14:49.football trivia, it's the only stadium with a pub on every corner.
:14:50. > :14:52.But if the club gets its way, at a meeting at Hounslow Civic Centre
:14:53. > :14:59.tonight, the fans could soon be doing their pre`match drinking in a
:15:00. > :15:03.different part of town. A mile away at Lionel Road is where Brentford
:15:04. > :15:07.want to build a new stadium. On a 7.6 acre site between Kew Bridge
:15:08. > :15:13.railway station and the M4. This is what they propose. New homes,
:15:14. > :15:19.community facilities and 20,000 seater stadium. The most important
:15:20. > :15:22.day in the club's history. It is more important than any game we've
:15:23. > :15:27.played this season, we've had some good ones and big ones. If you look
:15:28. > :15:30.at the case we put forward, it should happen. By Isner Brentford
:15:31. > :15:34.began their bid to move 11 years ago. Last year they bought the site.
:15:35. > :15:40.They applied for planning permission in May and hope to move in by August
:15:41. > :15:59.2016. Several local groups are against the building of residential
:16:00. > :16:01.tower to help finance the move. The scheme has been opposed by the
:16:02. > :16:03.London Borough of Richmond, by the Royal palaces, by English Heritage.
:16:04. > :16:06.So whatever they decide tonight, it will have to go to the heir and
:16:07. > :16:09.possibly the Secretary of State. We hope that at some point the new
:16:10. > :16:10.scheme, which is much more satisfactory, will emerge.
:16:11. > :16:15.Brentford's journey towards their dream home still has some distance
:16:16. > :16:19.left to run. Still to come... Albie talking to Londoners Naomi Harris

:16:32. > :16:36.Greenwich Park was the backdrop for the London 2012 equestrian events.
:16:37. > :16:40.And today the legacy lives on with the opening of Equestrian Centre by
:16:41. > :16:43.the Princess Royal. It's not just to attract local people to take up
:16:44. > :16:46.riding but also to consider a career in the equine world, as our sports
:16:47. > :16:55.news correspondent, Adrian Warner, reports. The most spectacular
:16:56. > :17:04.Olympic equestrian stage ever. Jumping across the Meridian line.
:17:05. > :17:08.That's all right, but my word, she is on the edge! And also trying to
:17:09. > :17:13.break down class barriers, by bringing what some say is a posh
:17:14. > :17:17.sport into the city. Not everybody wanted the Olympics to come here.
:17:18. > :17:20.Some were worried about the park being damaged. Others said there
:17:21. > :17:27.wouldn't be a sporting legacy for Greenwich. The new Greenwich
:17:28. > :17:32.Equestrian Centre is about proving them wrong. A place where students
:17:33. > :17:36.learn how to look after horses, and they certainly get VIP treatment
:17:37. > :17:43.here. This is physiotherapy for animals will stop a freezing cold
:17:44. > :17:46.footbath. It's very much like a massage effect. You can control the
:17:47. > :17:53.depth of the water and the intensity of the amount of bubbles that are
:17:54. > :17:58.there. That can help with numerous different injuries in the lower leg.
:17:59. > :18:03.To help the horses recovery time. There wasn't much of this around

:18:31. > :18:34.to sign up to come here. So signs of some equestrian legacy just up the
:18:35. > :18:38.road from Greenwich Park. I won't say I've got it straight from the

:19:36. > :19:39.Building on a heritage of this fantastic building. We are out
:19:40. > :19:42.sourcing the original manufacturers of light fittings, the original
:19:43. > :19:48.brickworks where the bricks came from. We are doing as much quality
:19:49. > :19:54.control of the heritage as we can. David Hills is a specialist heritage
:19:55. > :20:01.architect. Can I? Indeed. So I've turned out all the lights in London?
:20:02. > :20:08.You've just switched off Wimbledon. So this can be restored but not
:20:09. > :20:13.fully workable. You're right, but we can refurbish the machine. David has
:20:14. > :20:19.spent the last few months conducting a detailed survey of everything that
:20:20. > :20:22.has survived here. This is an inventory of all the surviving
:20:23. > :20:29.features within the power station. 500 plus items in here. Like the
:20:30. > :20:36.lavatory. That's quite a special 1950s lavatory, on the office block.
:20:37. > :20:40.So it's down to that kind of detail. Exactly. It is elements like this
:20:41. > :20:46.which give it the character of the building. Cup `` can you come at
:20:47. > :20:53.English Heritage, make sure the developers stick to their word?
:20:54. > :20:56.Proposals are submitted and approved by English Heritage, they are
:20:57. > :21:00.fantastically detailed. That covers the chimneys, repair to the
:21:01. > :21:04.brickwork, the type of bricks used to repair. We will be working very
:21:05. > :21:09.closely with all those involved to make sure that it isn't just brought
:21:10. > :21:12.back to life but is brought back to life perfectly. If everything goes
:21:13. > :21:16.to plan, Battersea Power Station will eventually find itself taken
:21:17. > :21:20.off the English Heritage at risk register. But new cases of
:21:21. > :21:23.architectural neglect are coming to light all the time, ready to take
:21:24. > :21:27.the place of those buildings lucky enough to be saved. And you can see

:21:52. > :21:58.of Cambridge. Our Entertainment Correspondent, Brenda Emmanus, is
:21:59. > :22:02.there. It is the most highly anticipated
:22:03. > :22:06.biopic of one of the most revered world leaders, and stars two
:22:07. > :22:11.Londoners who had an amazing year. Idris Elba and Naomi Harris Blake
:22:12. > :22:15.Nelson and Winnie Mandela. It must be great bringing the premiere here
:22:16. > :22:20.to London. It feels great. London has come out for us, the Royal
:22:21. > :22:26.Family has come out for us and it feels very special. It's cold as
:22:27. > :22:32.well. You look amazing but you must be freezing! How would you sum up
:22:33. > :22:36.the experience? Fabulous. We are just so proud of this movie. We got
:22:37. > :22:41.the experience of taking it to South Africa and having their stamp of
:22:42. > :22:45.approval. They've broken all kinds of box office records in South
:22:46. > :22:50.Africa. Has it changed your perception of the man and that time
:22:51. > :22:55.in history at all? Massively. It educated me. One of the things about
:22:56. > :22:58.the film, you get an education about not only South Africa but who
:22:59. > :23:03.Mandela was. We know him as the older guy but we really didn't know
:23:04. > :23:06.him as the younger guy, and that is what this film achieves. Would you
:23:07. > :23:11.say it has affected the roles that you will take on after this, either
:23:12. > :23:17.of you? Know, as an actor we are just lucky to get work! I like to be
:23:18. > :23:23.diverse in the roles I take. From Mrs Mandela to Moneypenny, are you
:23:24. > :23:28.looking forward to developing that will again? Yes, that's what my next
:23:29. > :23:32.rollers. It's a nice transition. I like to keep mixing it up, keep it
:23:33. > :23:36.eclectic and keep challenging myself in completely different ways. But
:23:37. > :23:45.Naomi wants to do a wrong come with me. `` romantic comedy with me. A
:23:46. > :23:51.lot of people would like to do that with you! Is Luther going to be made
:23:52. > :23:55.into a movie? You can look forward to an extended version of Luther. It
:23:56. > :24:00.is an idea that everyone wants to see happen. I want to be true to the
:24:01. > :24:05.fans, they've been loyal to us. The film is coming! The fans have
:24:06. > :24:11.certainly been waiting for them not to come. The film is released in
:24:12. > :24:20.January. Enjoy the rest of your evening.
:24:21. > :24:27.Let's get a check on the weather. We've heard about the storms in the
:24:28. > :24:31.north, how will it affect us, if at all? We've missed the worst of the
:24:32. > :24:37.weather. We have to bear in mind that an awful lot of water is being
:24:38. > :24:43.blown down the North Sea. It is surging southwards this evening.
:24:44. > :24:51.That's the reason we have got lots of coastal flood warnings, all the
:24:52. > :24:55.way down the east coast, across the Thames Estuary and into Kent. This
:24:56. > :25:01.could be the worst tidal surge for over 60 years will stop we should be
:25:02. > :25:05.taking this very seriously. In fact, the Environment Agency told us a few
:25:06. > :25:10.moments ago that they will be closing the Thames barrier at 10pm
:25:11. > :25:16.tonight. That is as an emergency measure to protect London. If you
:25:17. > :25:22.live the other side of the Thames Barrier, then you really do need to
:25:23. > :25:27.make sure you are up to date with the latest flood risk. The reason
:25:28. > :25:33.for that, as you can see, high water in the Thames Estuary tonight is
:25:34. > :25:38.going to be around 2am or 3am. So do not go to bed until you know exactly
:25:39. > :25:42.what is going on. You can find out what the flood risks are along the
:25:43. > :25:49.Essex and Kent coasts by going to the BBC weather website. You can see
:25:50. > :25:53.a red banner. If you click on the one that says flood warnings, it
:25:54. > :26:00.will take you to all the information that you need. Weather`wise, well,
:26:01. > :26:06.it is relatively quiet. We will have clearing skies this evening. There's
:26:07. > :26:13.a bit of a chill in the breeze. You wouldn't know it with Naomi Harris'
:26:14. > :26:17.dress, would you? ! Even a few sleety showers running down from the
:26:18. > :26:21.Midlands across Hertfordshire and into Essex. With air temperatures as
:26:22. > :26:26.low as those tonight, there might be a little bit of ice in the morning.
:26:27. > :26:30.Tomorrow is going to be a bright and breezy day, the winds will continue
:26:31. > :26:36.to moderate, but you still need to keep an eye on the flood risk if you
:26:37. > :26:40.are on that Thames Estuary coast. We have got another high water later on
:26:41. > :26:45.in the day. Things really do come down as we go into the weekend, even
:26:46. > :26:50.the sea, although it will be turning rather cloudy again. Bearing in mind
:26:51. > :26:52.that any holes in the cloud over the weekend, we might get a bit of frost
:26:53. > :27:05.and fork risk. Time for a look at the main
:27:06. > :27:09.headlines. First Scotland and now the rest of the UK is being battered
:27:10. > :27:12.by a powerful storm. 9,000 homes are being evacuated on the east coast
:27:13. > :27:15.because of an expected tidal surge this evening. In his Autumn
:27:16. > :27:18.Statement, the Chancellor confirmed that increases in the state pension
:27:19. > :27:22.age are being brought forward, which will affect people now in their 40s.
:27:23. > :27:27.Fuel is duty is to be frozen next year. And in London, foreign owners
:27:28. > :27:31.will soon be made to pay capital gains tax on their homes in the
:27:32. > :27:38.capital. It comes after criticism that foreign investors are falsely
:27:39. > :27:42.inflating house prices here. We will be back later during the 10 O'Clock
:27:43. > :27:45.News. Thanks for watching and do enjoy your evening.
