:00:00. > :00:00.That's all from the BBC News At Six so it's goodbye from me and, on BBC
:00:00. > :00:10.One, we now join the BBC's news teams where you are.
:00:11. > :00:18.It works in Paris, but can it work here? The new electric car hire
:00:19. > :00:22.scheme coming to the capital. It's economically viable. It's good. It
:00:23. > :00:26.helps the environment as well. I think I would go for that. We will
:00:27. > :00:29.hear from the French billionaire behind the scheme hoping to make
:00:30. > :00:34.electric car travel affordable for us all. Also tonight: New figures
:00:35. > :00:42.from the Met reveal how gangs commit more than 2,000 violent offences a
:00:43. > :00:45.year. Also, I will look at the Olympic cycling facilities which
:00:46. > :00:55.will open to Londoners from the end of the month. Are you listening, a
:00:56. > :01:01.helicopter, and some chocolate digestives please. The award`winning
:01:02. > :01:11.film inspired by the scriptwriter's work inside Wandsworth Prison.
:01:12. > :01:19.Good evening. Electric cars, hired by the hour, is the latest idea to
:01:20. > :01:22.get Londoners around the capital in an environmentally friendly way
:01:23. > :01:26.whilst also reducing traffic. It's effectively the four`wheel
:01:27. > :01:30.equivalent of the Boris Bike. It's being funded by a French billionaire
:01:31. > :01:33.who wants to boost the number of charge points in London. He will
:01:34. > :01:37.pick up from where the Mayor left off, which was a long way below the
:01:38. > :01:47.targets he had pledged to meet himself. This is how they sell them
:01:48. > :01:53.in France. Clean, fast and flexible, electric cars zipping around the
:01:54. > :01:57.capital. Zero noise, zero odour. Trouble is, back in London there has
:01:58. > :02:03.been zero uptake in many places for these greenest of cars. This French
:02:04. > :02:09.billionaire says his new hire scheme can finally make us love electric.
:02:10. > :02:14.Today's electric cars are only for VIPs, there are few because they are
:02:15. > :02:19.an expensive car. We want to offer it to all the citizens a cheap
:02:20. > :02:22.formula which is complimentary of the public transport. He promised
:02:23. > :02:27.100 of these will be on our streets by this time next year. Like the
:02:28. > :02:32.Boris Bike, you find your vehicle online and you are away. It, works
:02:33. > :02:39.out about ?10 an hour. There is also a monthly subscription of ?5 to ?10
:02:40. > :02:43.or an on the day fee, which has not been revealed. Lots of people might
:02:44. > :02:46.like the idea of an electric car, many are put off by the cost and
:02:47. > :02:55.also the way you are restricted by the battery life. Just how many
:02:56. > :03:00.Londoners will go for this import. An hour's journey on a cab is more
:03:01. > :03:08.than ?10. It's environmentally viable. The zip car in London you
:03:09. > :03:11.can get those for ?6 an hour. If it was cheaper I'm sure it would catch
:03:12. > :03:14.on. I think I would go for that. From this summer the French
:03:15. > :03:18.investors will take over the running of the charging points London
:03:19. > :03:26.already has and create thousands more. They hope they can succeed
:03:27. > :03:31.where City Hall has stalled. In 2009. The Mayor pledged 25 charging
:03:32. > :03:38.points in London. Following year that was dropped to 7,500. Today
:03:39. > :03:44.just 1,400 have been installed. Latest figures show only 27% were
:03:45. > :03:51.actually being used. The key question is, the current London
:03:52. > :03:55.system good enough. Not enough charging points, not serving the
:03:56. > :03:59.needs of the consumer. That is holding back the development of
:04:00. > :04:03.electric cars on our streets. This initiative on paper looks promising.
:04:04. > :04:07.100 of these may be zooming to London over the next year, there is
:04:08. > :04:15.a long road to travel to arrive at Boris Johnson's vision of 100,000
:04:16. > :04:19.electric cars in the capital. Stay with us this evening, there is a lot
:04:20. > :04:25.more to come before the end of the programme, including: Ticked off by
:04:26. > :04:26.Ofsted for its teachers looking too scruffy. The Camden school told to
:04:27. > :04:38.smarten up its act. The full extent of gang crime in
:04:39. > :04:46.London has been revealed by Scotland Yard. It shows that over 6,500
:04:47. > :04:49.violent offences have been committed by gang ebbs members in just three
:04:50. > :04:53.years, some by children as young as 13. The figures were released under
:04:54. > :04:54.a Feedom of Information request with the crimes detailed, including
:04:55. > :05:07.murder, stabbings and kidnapping. Brixton in January of this year and
:05:08. > :05:15.a series of raids against the gang on part of the Met's clampdown on
:05:16. > :05:18.gang`related crime. In all 6,600 violent crimes were committed by
:05:19. > :05:24.suspected gang members in the last three years. They include 24
:05:25. > :05:30.murders, 28 attempted killings and 170 firearms offences. Among those
:05:31. > :05:40.responsible, two 13`year`olds and another 2 age 14. At the top end we
:05:41. > :05:44.are looking to arrest those violent offenders who are a priority to us.
:05:45. > :05:47.At the lower end we are trying to divert those individuals who may be
:05:48. > :05:52.thinking about getting involved or starting to get involved in gang
:05:53. > :05:57.crime. Once the raids are over the arrests made it's up to local youth
:05:58. > :06:10.workers like Roz to do what they can to keep children out of trouble. Her
:06:11. > :06:16.riding school plays its. Part. We lost two ever our members who were
:06:17. > :06:20.murdered. A lot of people with special needs are targeted in this
:06:21. > :06:25.area. They wear them down until they do succumb and they join the gangs.
:06:26. > :06:30.Having something a hobby where you can improve and have a structure
:06:31. > :06:34.really helps. Her pupils agree and appreciate what this school offers.
:06:35. > :06:38.It keeps them off the streets. It keeps them entertained when they
:06:39. > :06:50.don't have something to do. It fills up an empty space in my life. Others
:06:51. > :06:54.question the Met's figures. It lies and statistics and more lies. Groups
:06:55. > :06:59.of young people getting involved in disputes and problems become a gang.
:07:00. > :07:05.If you live on the same street, go to a school or play in the football
:07:06. > :07:10.with someone allegedly in a gang you are in a gang much we have to be
:07:11. > :07:14.careful with these statistics. The Met denies it and say they are
:07:15. > :07:19.compiled by them and partner agencies and it's a challenge they
:07:20. > :07:22.continue to face. Police have named the Crossrail construction worker
:07:23. > :07:29.who died after a piece of concrete fell on his head last week. Rene
:07:30. > :07:33.Tkacik was a 43`year`old Slovakian national. He was spraying concrete
:07:34. > :07:38.in a tunnel in Holborn in the early hours of Friday morning when the
:07:39. > :07:41.accident happened. Teenage girls have been arrested at their school
:07:42. > :07:45.in south`east London after allegedly spraying another pupil in the face
:07:46. > :07:52.with an unknown substance. It happened at the Beaverwood School
:07:53. > :07:57.yesterday morning in Chislehurst. Alice can tell us more. Police were
:07:58. > :08:01.called to the school at 1.00pm yesterday afternoon to reports of a
:08:02. > :08:06.pupil being sprayed in the face with what they have called an un "unknown
:08:07. > :08:08.substance." There has been talk of it being pepper spray. Police have
:08:09. > :08:13.not confirmed that. At the moment, that is pure speculation. We don't
:08:14. > :08:18.know how badly the 14`year`old girl was injured. We do know that she
:08:19. > :08:23.needed medical attention. Police have said that two girls, aged 13
:08:24. > :08:31.and 14, were arrested on suspicion of possessing a prohibited weapon.
:08:32. > :08:35.They have been galed until April. Thank you very much. The rapper

:08:58. > :09:08.Hamlets has apologised after he likened some of his political
:09:09. > :09:13.opponents to Oswald Moseley's 1930's Fascist Party. The comment was made
:09:14. > :09:17.at a "heated" meeting which was supposed to be on the council's
:09:18. > :09:21.budget, but ended up leading to more accusations of racism. There is not
:09:22. > :09:27.much escape in a deem, this is what you call a salesman. Every where you
:09:28. > :09:31.looked in Wipe chapel market this afternoon there was selling going
:09:32. > :09:35.on. For now, it's all about the price in goods. Tower Hamlets will
:09:36. > :09:40.go to the polls like the rest of London in local borough elections in
:09:41. > :09:43.two months' time. History tells us that elections in Tower Hamlets can
:09:44. > :09:47.get a little bit messy. This time it seems to have started early with
:09:48. > :09:56.accusations of racism at a recent budget meeting. The white elite do
:09:57. > :10:02.not want talented Bengalis to speak. The Labour Party hinders Bengalis
:10:03. > :10:08.from speaking out. The bad tempered meeting got worse. Despite him
:10:09. > :10:14.dismissing the people of Tower Hamlets as nothing more than curry
:10:15. > :10:18.people in her email in 2010. The borough is not about curry, it's
:10:19. > :10:29.about heritage, culture and diversity. There was more to follow.
:10:30. > :10:41.Oswald Moseley in the 30s. ` That was more than offensive. Can you lot

:10:46. > :10:51.that councillor Jackson was wearing black was she was in mourning.
:10:52. > :10:56.People want a debate. I think Labour, because of their might and
:10:57. > :10:59.the numbers they have council they want to stifle debate which is
:11:00. > :11:05.unpopular. People have elected you to speak. John Biggs is Labour's
:11:06. > :11:09.candidate he is standing against the current Mayor who used to be a
:11:10. > :11:13.Labour Party member. It will be hard`fought, possibly bitter if past
:11:14. > :11:17.history is anything to go by. The way you can offer leadership in this
:11:18. > :11:21.borough, regardless whether you are Labour or Tory, is by, working to
:11:22. > :11:27.pull people together not by throwing allegations of a personal nature and
:11:28. > :11:33.tearing people apart. Can despite that no`one expects this row to be
:11:34. > :11:38.the last before election time. Next, teachers at a school in Camden have
:11:39. > :11:49.been criticised in an Ofsted report for being too scruffy. Staff at the
:11:50. > :11:52.Ackland Burghley Secondary School in Tuffnell Park are believed to be
:11:53. > :11:56.among the first teachers in the country to be reprimanded for their
:11:57. > :12:01.choice of clothes after inspectors said their dress was "too casual."
:12:02. > :12:04.Today building work was underway. There was no comment from staff
:12:05. > :12:08.about their latest Ofsted report which said some teachers there were
:12:09. > :12:13.too casual in their dress, which does not promote high professional
:12:14. > :12:16.standards. Francis Gilbert is a teacher at another London
:12:17. > :12:20.comprehensive school. He doesn't believe the comments are emhadful. I
:12:21. > :12:24.think it's totally unfair. I think Ofsted should be commenting on the
:12:25. > :12:29.standard of teaching and not the dress code of particular teachers.
:12:30. > :12:33.In my experience, some of the best teachers are really scruffy, they
:12:34. > :12:36.are creative types. Ofsted said they wouldn't competent on individual
:12:37. > :12:40.school reports. In a statement they said they weren't being prescriptive
:12:41. > :12:44.about what teachers should or shouldn't wear, but from day one
:12:45. > :12:50.they should dress in a way that befits their professional status. At
:12:51. > :12:54.this school in Haringey, the pupils don't wear uniform there is a strict
:12:55. > :13:00.dress code that teachers adhere to as well. It essay proppiate for me
:13:01. > :13:06.to dress in a formal way. I joke with students it's my school
:13:07. > :13:11.uniform. They have to wear their lap yards. I'm making patients and
:13:12. > :13:15.agency staff it's important to be smart. I don't wear it when I get
:13:16. > :13:18.home. Education unions say it was ridiculous that teachers dress was
:13:19. > :13:21.becoming an issue when assessing their ability. I don't think the
:13:22. > :13:24.evidence is there to suggest a that a business`like dress is what is
:13:25. > :13:29.needed. Schools aren't businesses. We don't need business`like dress. I
:13:30. > :13:33.think if I saw a primary teacher in a suit and heels I would be
:13:34. > :13:41.wondering what exactly she was going to be doing. The idea behind the
:13:42. > :13:45.school inspectorate's push to improve the dress is to improve on
:13:46. > :13:49.discipline and standards. It seems they have a long way to go to win
:13:50. > :13:52.over all school staff. You have been getting in touch with us on Facebook
:13:53. > :13:55.and Twitter about what you think teachers should wear. Let me read
:13:56. > :13:57.some of the comments out. Nigel Birmingham got in touch with us to
:13:58. > :14:33.Thank you very much for all those say:
:14:34. > :14:39.Thank you very much for all those comments much we always enjoy
:14:40. > :14:44.hearing from you. Still to come: Cyclists are invited to try the
:14:45. > :14:50.Olympic Velodrome and BMX track as it opens to the public, to schools
:14:51. > :14:57.and to clubs. This is where you open up to me and build trust, is it? Is
:14:58. > :15:00.Yeah. We will also hear from the former prison, worker who wrote
:15:01. > :15:07.about his experience at Wandsworth and had a film made.
:15:08. > :15:13.More tributes have been paid today to Bob Crow, the RMT leader who died
:15:14. > :15:18.suddenly yesterday of a massive heart attack. At City Hall, union
:15:19. > :15:22.members and transport bosses spoke of their admiration for Mr Crow and
:15:23. > :15:30.as a, mark of respect, talks over ticket office closures on the under
:15:31. > :15:35.ground have been put on hold. Bright sunshine at City Hall, a sombre
:15:36. > :15:41.mood. We have always had civil words between us. Never a cross word on a
:15:42. > :15:52.personal basis between us. Inside more tributes to the general
:15:53. > :15:55.secretary Bob Crow. He spoke with passion, detailed knowledge and
:15:56. > :15:58.understanding on the subject. Across the river in parliament the Deputy
:15:59. > :16:03.Prime Minister also paid tribute. Whether you agreed with him or not,
:16:04. > :16:06.he was someone with forthright views and worked tirelessly for what he
:16:07. > :16:11.believed in and the people he represented. Bob Crow's last strike
:16:12. > :16:16.was called over closing all Tube ticket offices. That action led to a
:16:17. > :16:22.review to see if any offices could be saved. Back at City Hall today
:16:23. > :16:26.that looked possible. Yes, of course there will be changes to our
:16:27. > :16:30.proposal. I would be amazed if we have everything 100%. Talks over
:16:31. > :16:35.ticket office closures will be paused as a mark of respect. What is
:16:36. > :16:42.the likelihood of further industrial action over these matters? Well, you
:16:43. > :16:47.know, you never know, is the simple answer. I don't know. It also
:16:48. > :16:51.emerged there might be times when some stations are unstaffed for
:16:52. > :16:56.short periods. We did receive evidence from the unions that
:16:57. > :17:01.between October and November 2013 there were over 70 incidents at 29
:17:02. > :17:05.Tube stations where stations were operational but had no staff, which
:17:06. > :17:10.I think is rather worrying. The numbers you were talking about elude
:17:11. > :17:13.very much to those types of scenarios that occasionally, from
:17:14. > :17:18.time to time, in a massive network of over 270 stations do occasionally
:17:19. > :17:24.emerge. It's not what we roster the place to be. While the future of the
:17:25. > :17:30.Tube is put on hold for the moment, the concerns haven't changed.
:17:31. > :17:33.Bosses at Heathrow Airport are issuing an early warning to
:17:34. > :17:37.passengers who'll use the new Terminal 2 ` to expect teething
:17:38. > :17:40.problems when it opens in less than three months' time. Travellers have
:17:41. > :17:43.been told that the opening day in June cannot be guaranteed to go
:17:44. > :17:46.perfectly, although they say they have learned lessons from the
:17:47. > :17:52.opening of Terminal 5 a few years ago, when thousands of bags went
:17:53. > :17:56.missing. Track, BMX and mountain bikers have
:17:57. > :18:00.a new place to practise and compete from today ` and it's no ordinary
:18:01. > :18:02.place. The world`class facilities at the Olympic Velodrome have reopened
:18:03. > :18:08.to cater for cyclists of all abilities. Prices start from less
:18:09. > :18:13.than ?5. Our sports news correspondent Adrian Warner has been
:18:14. > :18:18.there. Your turn now to experience the ups
:18:19. > :18:21.and downs of Olympic life. Don't tell the grown`ups but this has to
:18:22. > :18:26.be the coolest sport going at the Games. Great for youngsters wanting
:18:27. > :18:33.danger in a safe environment, like these London schoolchildren trying
:18:34. > :18:36.out BMX for the first time today. It was amazing. I mean, this experience
:18:37. > :18:41.is very new to me. I haven't had much experience of this before. But
:18:42. > :18:47.doing it now is great. I think I'll definitely take up BMX in the
:18:48. > :18:49.future. The action here was some of the most spectacular of the
:18:50. > :18:53.Olympics. The course has been made easier for community use but you
:18:54. > :18:58.still have to respect every bump in the road. When you're on this type
:18:59. > :19:04.of terrain, you have to be thinking every single second about the
:19:05. > :19:07.balance, the speed, the awareness. If you've done this sport before,
:19:08. > :19:16.it's going to cost you ?6 per session as an adult, ?4 as a child.
:19:17. > :19:20.If you're trying it for the first time, a training session will cost
:19:21. > :19:24.you ?15 as an adult, ?12 as a child. Of course, you can do the same thing
:19:25. > :19:28.inside the velodrome. A taster session in there will cost ?30 an
:19:29. > :19:32.hour for adults. They plan to make money from corporate awaydays. The
:19:33. > :19:38.banks are bit steep and scary but some would say businesspeople are
:19:39. > :19:41.well used to that! That 45`degree gradient is scary and I had the
:19:42. > :19:45.opportunity to have a go myself a few weeks ago and I was daunted to
:19:46. > :19:50.start off with but within 20 minutes, I was flying round the top
:19:51. > :19:54.of the bank and having a great time. And the goal of all this is also to
:19:55. > :19:57.produce more Olympic champions. To have the only place in the world
:19:58. > :20:00.where they have every single cycling discipline in London, I think it's
:20:01. > :20:05.amazing. You're going to see a lot more people, by developing different
:20:06. > :20:08.sports, as well. We had to go to Manchester and Newport to get an
:20:09. > :20:13.indoor track so to have another one in the country, down south, is
:20:14. > :20:16.great. That new era begins on April the 5th, when the whole of the
:20:17. > :20:30.Olympic Park will be opened permanently.

:21:18. > :21:27.way of criticising the probation and prison service, as a way of bringing
:21:28. > :21:31.the issue to debate? You bet I have. You bet I have because the wonderful
:21:32. > :21:34.thing about Starred Up being made is that it's given me a platform where
:21:35. > :21:39.people are interested in talking to me in finding out about my life and

:21:55. > :21:59.about how prisons can create risk by concentrating these dangerous
:22:00. > :22:02.people. Violence happens and then all they do is separate and
:22:03. > :22:12.segregate and the problem the prison has created then passes down the
:22:13. > :22:15.line. Who's that, then? My mum. Why? Jack O'Connell, who plays young
:22:16. > :22:18.offender Eric Love, agrees the film highlights problems within prison
:22:19. > :22:21.institutions. Jonathan ` his real`life experience, what he had to
:22:22. > :22:30.endure, was battling the system, just so he could eventually speak to
:22:31. > :22:34.these people. A conversation. And a lot of the times, you know, that
:22:35. > :22:40.sort of thing, I guess, can go a lot further than solitary confinement.
:22:41. > :22:42.`` that sort of therapy. He's suffered enormous emotional trauma.
:22:43. > :22:52.Starred Up is released on the 21st of March.
:22:53. > :22:53.That looks like a very interesting film.
:22:54. > :23:03.Now the weather with Wendy. I'm enjoying this weather!
:23:04. > :23:07.Don't we deserve it! More to come in the next few days but one addition
:23:08. > :23:11.is that we are going to start having foggy mornings at the end of the
:23:12. > :23:15.week. It will be followed by sunny afternoons, though. The fog is
:23:16. > :23:19.enough tomorrow for the Met Office to give us a yellow weather warning
:23:20. > :23:24.because, in places, visibility will be down below 200 metres. That
:23:25. > :23:28.brings a risk of disruption to transport so into the rush`hour
:23:29. > :23:33.tomorrow, stay tuned to our radio station, BBC London 94.9, because
:23:34. > :23:36.that will tell you where we've got problems with the roads and maybe
:23:37. > :23:41.the airports, as well, through the rush`hour. Why it's happening is
:23:42. > :23:44.because we've had a nice warm day and it's all cooling down so we'll
:23:45. > :23:50.have cloud at ground level, if you like, developing quite quickly after
:23:51. > :23:54.midnight. Some will also drifting through the Thames Estuary. That's a
:23:55. > :23:58.sea fog. It's not going to be so everyone but it won't be nice to hit
:23:59. > :24:04.back fog as you're driving through tomorrow. Leave extra time if you
:24:05. > :24:09.can and go carefully. Where the fog doesn't form, we will have a touch
:24:10. > :24:13.of frost forming. As we start the day tomorrow, there will be dense
:24:14. > :24:17.fog patches in a few places. As we go through the morning, we'll see it
:24:18. > :24:21.lifting up and by lunchtime it will be breaking up and we'll see some
:24:22. > :24:25.sunshine. For most of tomorrow afternoon, another beautiful day.
:24:26. > :24:27.Blue sky, light winds and temperatures picking up pretty
:24:28. > :24:35.quickly after the clearance of that fog. Highs of between 12 and 14.
:24:36. > :24:39.There may be a few places that stay a bit foggy towards the Thames
:24:40. > :24:43.Estuary and a spot like Southend might hang onto it for a bit longer.
:24:44. > :24:47.It will readily reformat as we go through the night into Friday, so
:24:48. > :24:54.another foggy start to the day. That will lift and we'll see still season
:24:55. > :25:00.breaks. `` we'll still see some rakes. Temperatures will knock off
:25:01. > :25:02.of it for Saturday but it could be in the high teens again on Sunday in
:25:03. > :25:10.the sunshine. Before we go, a reminder of
:25:11. > :25:13.tonight's main news headlines: Labour says an EU referendum is
:25:14. > :25:16.unlikely if it's in government, unless there were plans to give more
:25:17. > :25:19.powers to Brussels. Ed Miliband said he believes Britain's future lies at
:25:20. > :25:22.the heart of Europe. The final communication from the
:25:23. > :25:24.crew on board the missing Malaysia Airlines jet with Air Traffic
:25:25. > :25:27.Control has been made public. The authorities say all seemed normal on
:25:28. > :25:31.the flight just minutes before it vanished.
:25:32. > :25:34.A forensics expert has re`enacted how Oscar Pistorius broke down the
:25:35. > :25:38.toilet door with a cricket bat after he'd shot his girlfriend. The
:25:39. > :25:43.athlete denies murdering Reeva Steenkamp, saying he thought she was
:25:44. > :25:46.an intruder. Proposals to launch a fleet of
:25:47. > :25:50.electric hire cars across London have been launched. A French company
:25:51. > :25:55.which runs the equivalent scheme in Paris will run the project.
:25:56. > :25:58.And thousands of violent offences carried out by gangs in London have
:25:59. > :26:02.been detailed by the Metropolitan Police. Figures show that more than
:26:03. > :26:06.2,000 violent crimes were committed in the last 12 months alone.
:26:07. > :26:10.That's it for now. I hope you can join me again later during the ten
:26:11. > :26:11.o'clock news on BBC One. But for now, from the BBC London team, have
:26:12. > :26:48.a very good evening. 'Small businesses are very important
:26:49. > :26:51.to the whole country.' Without small businesses
:26:52. > :26:53.on the high street, it would close the heart
:26:54. > :26:55.of the towns and villages. The first time for 100...
:26:56. > :26:59.over 130 years since we've been here, we are expanding
:27:00. > :27:01.and we've bought another shop, 'Whether you are
:27:02. > :27:13.a small or a large business, 'things have been
:27:14. > :27:15.extremely difficult.' due to the fact that people come in
:27:16. > :27:20.more regularly. 'We'll hopefully be able
:27:21. > :27:24.to employ some more stylists. 'We're feeling really optimistic
:27:25. > :27:29.about the future.'
