:00:00. > :00:00.degrees. A bit of cloud and the risk of a few showers. That's all from

:00:00. > :00:00.the BBC News at Six, so it's goodbye from me and on BBC One we now join

:00:00. > :00:21.the BBC's news teams where you are. Tonight on BBC London news: The

:00:22. > :00:29.government virus to speed the deportation of terror suspects. Also

:00:30. > :00:33.tonight, the woman dying of cervical cancer sues the hospital for failing

:00:34. > :00:37.to spot she is at risk. It is hard to think about a simple mistake

:00:38. > :00:42.leading to such a devastating effect on my life. Plus, the major study of

:00:43. > :00:51.London school pupils to find out if mobile phones damage a child's

:00:52. > :00:57.mental development. And, this: We didn't know what we were in for, the

:00:58. > :00:58.sheer scale of it. We are with the war veterans commemorating the 70th

:00:59. > :01:10.anniversary of D`day. Good evening. He was one of London's

:01:11. > :01:13.most controversial figures for almost 20 years, spreading racial

:01:14. > :01:19.hatred and a brand of Islamic extremism from Finsbury Park Mosque

:01:20. > :01:22.in north London. Now Abu Hamza is facing a possible life sentence

:01:23. > :01:26.after being found guilty by a court in New York of supporting terrorism.

:01:27. > :01:29.Today questions have been raised as to why the UK government wasn't able

:01:30. > :01:35.to prosecute the radical cleric for his part in a kidnapping which saw

:01:36. > :01:43.three Britons killed. This report from our home affairs correspondent,

:01:44. > :01:48.Guy Smith. This was supposed to be a place for

:01:49. > :01:52.quiet contemplation, but during the 1990s, the dominant figure of Abu

:01:53. > :01:54.Hamza turns the Finsbury Park mosque into a centre of political

:01:55. > :02:02.extremism, preaching hate and intolerance. Although eventually

:02:03. > :02:14.kicked out, his sermons on the street attracted more notoriety. He

:02:15. > :02:20.was not a qualified imam. He was a former bouncer at a strip club, who

:02:21. > :02:27.found religion and identified himself as a form of Sheikh. Abu

:02:28. > :02:32.Hamza was convicted of 11 offences in the US, among them helping to

:02:33. > :02:37.organise hostagetaking in the Yemen, in which four tourists were

:02:38. > :02:39.killed. Asked why the British justice system didn't prosecute in

:02:40. > :02:44.rather than the US, this was the answer from Government: The key

:02:45. > :02:49.thing is that Abu Hamza has faced justice and is likely to be behind

:02:50. > :02:51.bars for many years. The Crown Prosecution Service, which is

:02:52. > :02:57.independent of Government, takes decision in terms of the evidence

:02:58. > :03:01.before it, and he was convicted of offences in this country and

:03:02. > :03:08.sentenced to seven years in prison. Mohammed Karrar is bar is chairman

:03:09. > :03:18.of trustees at the mosque. How damaging is Abu Hamza to the image

:03:19. > :03:22.of Islam in Britain? It has been a tough year for the Muslim community

:03:23. > :03:28.to deal with. It wasn't fair on the Muslim community to be in that

:03:29. > :03:34.position during that period. Clashes between communities, far right

:03:35. > :03:40.extremists coming here to protest in front of the mosque. Dees mix of

:03:41. > :03:46.security services failed to take Abu Hamza seriously? `` do you think the

:03:47. > :03:50.security services? Things could have been done better in the way of

:03:51. > :03:57.bringing communities together, taking away the hatred from

:03:58. > :04:04.communities. This is Abu Hamza in 2002 talking to BBC London. What is

:04:05. > :04:12.going to stop you preaching? Build me a grave. You are not going to

:04:13. > :04:17.stop? No. But he has been stopped, and faces a long time in a US jail.

:04:18. > :04:22.Today, the mosque is a very different place. Much has changed.

:04:23. > :04:25.Its managers say it is now what it is supposed to be, a centre for

:04:26. > :04:29.tolerance and understanding within the community.

:04:30. > :04:31.Joining me now is the BBC's security correspondent, Frank Gardner. The

:04:32. > :04:34.Prime Minister said today he wanted to see speedier deportations of

:04:35. > :04:43.people like Abu Hamza who pose a security risk. Is this realistic,

:04:44. > :04:48.and how many are there out there? I think this is going to be a battle

:04:49. > :04:52.for the Home Office to fight with European legislation. I have already

:04:53. > :04:58.fought it over Abu Qatada and others. But the issue here is why he

:04:59. > :05:02.wasn't prosecuted for his role in the Yemen kidnapping, because that

:05:03. > :05:05.is the main case in America that has been brought against him, and that

:05:06. > :05:10.is why they have thrown the book acting, because they have implicated

:05:11. > :05:15.him in the kidnapping of 16 Western tourists. I put it to the Crown

:05:16. > :05:21.Prosecution Service, why didn't you prosecute him? They said, we tried

:05:22. > :05:25.twice, working with senior officers from the police, and we couldn't get

:05:26. > :05:29.enough evidence for the case. They think there was some evidence used

:05:30. > :05:34.in the US court that would not have been admissible in a British court,

:05:35. > :05:37.and they won't say what that is. There was a satellite phone provided

:05:38. > :05:43.by Abu Hamza to the kidnappers, and it turned out he was talking to the

:05:44. > :05:47.kidnappers just ahead of the shoot out where four tourists died. We

:05:48. > :05:52.heard in the report that given the presence that he had in London, at

:05:53. > :05:55.Finsbury Park mosque, what is your assessment of how damaging he has

:05:56. > :06:01.been to the reputation of Islam in the UK? He was incredibly damaging,

:06:02. > :06:05.but I think that we the media bear some of the risk stability, because

:06:06. > :06:14.we kept interviewing him and he did not represent an does not represent

:06:15. > :06:23.mainstream Islam. He is no more representative of some Muslims as a

:06:24. > :06:29.bigot who burns the Koran in the United States is representative of

:06:30. > :06:34.Christianity. He is an expanse, he has one eye and a hook for a hand.

:06:35. > :06:38.He is almost a comic book villain, which is embarrassing for a lot of

:06:39. > :06:44.people. He also didn't have much Islamic redemptions. Abu Qatada did,

:06:45. > :06:50.and remains deeply respected by Islamic scholars, despite his views.

:06:51. > :06:54.Abu Hamza was self styled. Frank Gardner, thank you. Lots more

:06:55. > :06:55.to come, including: After the Camden Market fire, stallholders are left

:06:56. > :07:08.counting the cost of the damage. A 29`year`old woman who's dying from

:07:09. > :07:12.cancer after a London hospital missed abnormalities in a routine

:07:13. > :07:15.smear test is suing them. Fay Harryman has described the mistakes

:07:16. > :07:19.in her care as appalling, and said she would have had a future to look

:07:20. > :07:26.forward to had staff done their job properly. Lewsiham University

:07:27. > :07:33.Hospital accepted liability and apologised. Simon Jones reports.

:07:34. > :07:39.She knows that treatment for cancer will only prolong her life, not cure

:07:40. > :07:43.her, after a hospital error. The failure to spot the signs is

:07:44. > :07:49.devastating. I change between being angry and emotional, and it is just

:07:50. > :07:53.hard to kind of think about a simple mistake, really, that has led to

:07:54. > :08:06.such a devastating effect on my life. So it is quite angry, really.

:08:07. > :08:11.Fay Harryman had a smear test in April 2009 which was said to show no

:08:12. > :08:21.abnormalities, but she went on to suffer bleeding, and in 2010 a

:08:22. > :08:25.tumour was discovered. She received appalling treatment from the NHS.

:08:26. > :08:29.She put her trust and the doctors there, no reason to think that the

:08:30. > :08:34.smear would be anything other than properly reported. As it turned out,

:08:35. > :08:40.it wasn't until a further 18 months that she found out that an awful

:08:41. > :08:45.mistake he made, and she has to live with the consequences of that.

:08:46. > :08:48.Lewisham and granite NHS Trust says it was extremely sorry for the

:08:49. > :08:56.failure to detect abnormal cells, even though its processes met

:08:57. > :09:01.national guidelines. Experts say it is vital that women can trust smear

:09:02. > :09:07.tests. About 2900 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer every

:09:08. > :09:16.year. Many cases are prevented, around 5000 cases a year. Stuff

:09:17. > :09:19.needs to be done within the NHS. The organisation is amazing, it is

:09:20. > :09:25.prolonging my life, and yet it has also taken it away with the other

:09:26. > :09:29.hand. The trust had not admitted its failings contributed to the cancer

:09:30. > :09:32.returning. Fay Harryman is now seeking a legal settlement.

:09:33. > :09:37.UKIP supporters have clashed with protesters at a street rally in

:09:38. > :09:39.Croydon. It happened after a group of Romanians confronted UKIP party

:09:40. > :09:44.members about Nigel Farage's remarks last week about Romanian neighbours.

:09:45. > :09:56.Alex Bushill is in Croydon High Street with more details. Hopefully

:09:57. > :10:01.a! Lets see if we can get Alex at the moment. I'm afraid we can't get

:10:02. > :10:17.Alex at the moment, but let me give you a quick note here that there is

:10:18. > :10:28.a full list of candidates standing in the election. They include the

:10:29. > :10:31.Animal Welfare Party, which wants to change the way EU subsidies are used

:10:32. > :10:40.and promote healthy, vegetarian lifestyles across Europe. Our key

:10:41. > :10:43.policy is to redirect EU subsidies, currently totalling around 50

:10:44. > :10:47.billion euros per year away from livestock and fisheries farming and

:10:48. > :10:51.into plant `based agriculture. We say that is better for human health,

:10:52. > :10:56.better for the health of the environment and better for animal

:10:57. > :10:58.welfare. The English Democrats are campaigning for any dish

:10:59. > :11:02.parliament, because Scotland, Ireland and Wales have their own

:11:03. > :11:05.assemblies, their own first Minister, and they come to our

:11:06. > :11:10.Parliament and sit and decide on English matters, but we'd don't.

:11:11. > :11:13.That is one of the reasons why we are campaigning for an English

:11:14. > :11:20.Parliament. We can now go back to Alex Bushill in Croydon, where UKIP

:11:21. > :11:28.supporters have clashed with protesters. This was billed as a

:11:29. > :11:36.carnival. It descended into acrimony. It is organised by Winston

:11:37. > :11:40.McKenzie, a well`known local black politician and former boxer, saying

:11:41. > :11:45.it was an attempt to prove UKIP was not a racist party. Around a dozen

:11:46. > :11:51.protesters turned up shouting abuse and waving banners. They said UKIP

:11:52. > :11:57.is the mother not see party and are cyst. They said they were

:11:58. > :12:03.Romanians, a reference to Nigel Farage's comments that he would be

:12:04. > :12:09.uncomfortable if Romanians moved in next door to him. Soon a steel band

:12:10. > :12:11.packed up and left, saying they didn't know that they were

:12:12. > :12:17.performing for UKIP and they were embarrassed to do so. No arrests

:12:18. > :12:25.were made, it was non`violent but it was heated. As for Nigel Farage, who

:12:26. > :12:29.we expected to be turning up here, you never showed up, probably just

:12:30. > :12:37.as well for him and his party, given what unfolded here in Croydon.

:12:38. > :12:41.Alex, thank you. I will mention it again, there is a full list of

:12:42. > :12:44.candidates standing for election in Croydon at the council's website.

:12:45. > :12:47.Stallholders are concerned about the impact a fire in a market in Camden

:12:48. > :12:50.has had on their businesses. Hundreds of people had to be

:12:51. > :12:54.evacuated from the area following the blaze yesterday evening. Traders

:12:55. > :12:58.are uncertain when they'll be able to return to the part of Stables

:12:59. > :13:05.Market that's been damaged by the fire. Gareth Furby spent the day

:13:06. > :13:08.with them. Camden market yesterday evening.

:13:09. > :13:15.Above the blaze is wrong runway line, and a goods train passes over

:13:16. > :13:20.unharmed. But the stalls in the stables have been damaged. And for

:13:21. > :13:27.the hundreds evacuated and watching at the time, it seemed as though the

:13:28. > :13:32.whole market could go. I went to see if I could do something, went with a

:13:33. > :13:36.fire extinguisher. Someone told me there is a shop on fire. But I

:13:37. > :13:44.couldn't do nothing. It was such bad smoke. Mahmoud feared that his stall

:13:45. > :13:49.had been damaged or destroyed. He filmed the early stages of the fire

:13:50. > :13:55.from close by his mobile phone. I was panicking, I didn't know what

:13:56. > :14:01.the state of my shop would be like. But security have told me my shop is

:14:02. > :14:05.safe this afternoon as most of the market reopened, the damage could be

:14:06. > :14:10.seen. Confined to perhaps ten stalls thanks to the fire brigade's

:14:11. > :14:13.actions. The Fire Brigade did well to bring it under control so

:14:14. > :14:22.quickly, because as you can see it is quite a tight unit. The crews did

:14:23. > :14:26.work terribly hard. But last night, Terry King's book and big to stall

:14:27. > :14:31.wasn't damaged, even though it is close to the scene. And he thinks

:14:32. > :14:36.the risk is just part of the market's charm. And a thing that

:14:37. > :14:41.comes into the market is combustible. You can't help that. It

:14:42. > :14:50.is the nature of the market. Is there anything that can be done? No.

:14:51. > :14:56.It is just a risk that has to be taken? Stallholders will only know

:14:57. > :15:00.how much they have lost when the seniors opened, and some say they

:15:01. > :15:04.are not insured. Still to come tonight: A rare and

:15:05. > :15:06.extraordinary scientific find ` the perfectly preserved baby mammoth

:15:07. > :15:16.going on display at the Natural History Museum.

:15:17. > :15:22.Next, a question every parent would like answered: do mobile phones and

:15:23. > :15:26.other wireless devices affect a child's mental development? That's

:15:27. > :15:29.what a major study by researchers at Imperial College aims to find out.

:15:30. > :15:32.It will track 11` and 12`year`olds at 160 secondary schools in the

:15:33. > :15:38.capital from September. Nick Beake has the story.

:15:39. > :15:43.As technology powers forward, children have a world of opportunity

:15:44. > :15:46.at their fingertips. But still very little is known about the health

:15:47. > :15:52.risks of mobiles and other wireless devices. I was 12 when I got my

:15:53. > :15:56.first mobile phone. I was 12. I was 11. I was eight. I was ten. I was

:15:57. > :15:59.six. At this school in north London, mobiles are normally banned but

:16:00. > :16:05.pupils here will be among those tracked for three years, from year

:16:06. > :16:08.seven to year nine. It the government and industry funded

:16:09. > :16:15.project to work out the effect phones have on their thinking

:16:16. > :16:18.skills, memory and attention. There is very much a dearth of information

:16:19. > :16:25.on children's use of mobile phones, whether or not there might be any

:16:26. > :16:28.harmful effects. And therefore it's absolutely essential that the study

:16:29. > :16:34.is conducted and we are able to address the gaps in our knowledge.

:16:35. > :16:39.So do these people think mobiles are helping or hindering? If you need

:16:40. > :16:43.help with your homework you can go on the internet. Sometimes it is a

:16:44. > :16:47.bad thing because people get addicted to it, they block out the

:16:48. > :16:50.real world and what you are meant to do. There's more social media now,

:16:51. > :16:54.BBM, WhatsApp and Twitter, I can get it all on my phone. I use it more,

:16:55. > :17:00.my relationship with my phone, it's there with the all the time. I use

:17:01. > :17:05.it every day, it's my life in a little device really. I'd use my

:17:06. > :17:09.phone less if it was proven to be dangerous. The pupils from this

:17:10. > :17:12.school have already been signed up to this study, but now scientists

:17:13. > :17:19.are voting to 160 schools across London. They hope to recruit 2500

:17:20. > :17:23.children in all. We know the growth in the use of mobile phones is

:17:24. > :17:26.huge. So it is important that we understand what effect it could be

:17:27. > :17:31.having on their brain and brain development. So far, research has

:17:32. > :17:34.found no risk of brain cancer in adults, but some believe children's

:17:35. > :17:37.brains are more susceptible because they are still developing. We will

:17:38. > :17:39.have to wait until at least 2017 to find out all the effect this study

:17:40. > :17:55.uncovers. Veterans who served on HMS Belfast

:17:56. > :17:58.during the second world war have been commemorating the 70th

:17:59. > :18:01.anniversary of the D Day landings. Prime Minister David Cameron

:18:02. > :18:04.attended the memorial and paid tribute by telling them that the

:18:05. > :18:15.country will "always be proud" of them. We can join Katharine

:18:16. > :18:18.Carpenter, who's on River Thames. On a lovely, calm evening like this on

:18:19. > :18:23.the Thames, it's hard to imagine that this ship was ever in the cut

:18:24. > :18:28.and thrust of war. But HMS Belfast really was in the thick of it on

:18:29. > :18:32.D`day. At 5:27am, she fired some of the very first shots on German

:18:33. > :18:37.positions. Then she continued to offer fire cover, so that thousands

:18:38. > :18:43.of servicemen could make it onto the beaches. She remained in position

:18:44. > :18:57.for 33 days. Today, some 40 veterans who were there on D`day came on

:18:58. > :19:01.board. Older, of course, but still comrades, bound together by their

:19:02. > :19:05.shared experiences. The noise factor is so loud. From this ship, the

:19:06. > :19:09.Belfast, it will be firing its guns, you'd have a larger ship, a big

:19:10. > :19:14.battleship. All of them bombarding the beach.

:19:15. > :19:18.I can remember the landing craft were in line abreast, coming past a

:19:19. > :19:21.line of battleships and then cruisers, when we passed this boat

:19:22. > :19:33.that was giving us covering fire on the beach. Manning one of the guns

:19:34. > :19:38.on board was John Sears, from Newham. You had to watch your

:19:39. > :19:41.fingers in the breach, otherwise it took your fingers. During her five

:19:42. > :19:48.weeks supporting the Normandy landings, HMS Belfast fired over

:19:49. > :19:52.5000 shells. It was a question of us or them. I'd been waiting for this

:19:53. > :19:58.for what they'd done to my dear city, the old London. I was ready, I

:19:59. > :20:01.was up for it. It was that spirit which drew the admiration of the

:20:02. > :20:06.Prime Minister today. You are the heroes that I read about in history

:20:07. > :20:09.books at school. As a boy, I learned the names of those beaches. I was

:20:10. > :20:15.taught about this glorious chapter in our history. And now I'm a

:20:16. > :20:20.father, I want to make sure that my children learn the same things. That

:20:21. > :20:23.a aim is shared by those behind today's event, keen to remind the

:20:24. > :20:26.capital that one of its most famous landmarks helped fight for its

:20:27. > :20:32.freedoms, too, and came through almost unscathed. The only damage to

:20:33. > :20:35.the ship was the toilets were cracked by the vibration of the

:20:36. > :20:38.artillery fire from the naval guns. Fortunately, it suffered a few near

:20:39. > :20:41.misses from German batteries on the coastline with shells firing into

:20:42. > :20:48.the water about 50 yards away, but luckily it wasn't hit by direct

:20:49. > :20:51.fire. Like the ship, many of these veterans went on to give users more

:20:52. > :21:04.service to their country, memories of the Second World War still vivid.

:21:05. > :21:09.Today's event was one of a number which are going to take place over

:21:10. > :21:14.the next few weeks. The anniversary of D`day itself is the 6th of June.

:21:15. > :21:18.There will also be even in Portsmouth and Normandy. But the

:21:19. > :21:21.number of Normandy veterans is ever diminishing and particularly the

:21:22. > :21:25.number who are prepared to travel. Many of them said they weren't going

:21:26. > :21:28.to be able to make it out to France, and that's why they were

:21:29. > :21:36.particularly pleased there was an event here today in the capital.

:21:37. > :21:40.A perfectly preserved baby mammoth which died 42,000 years ago has been

:21:41. > :21:43.unveiled at the Natural History Museum. Found by Siberian deer

:21:44. > :21:45.herders, it's believed to be one of the most significant scientific

:21:46. > :21:48.discoveries ever. Experts say it's absolutely extraordinary and is the

:21:49. > :21:58.first time she's been shown in Western Europe. Warren Nettleford

:21:59. > :22:01.has more. You'd be forgiven for thinking these are the remains of a

:22:02. > :22:05.small elephant, but take a closer look. On top of the perfectly

:22:06. > :22:10.preserved skin you will see a bit of fur, and that's because this is a

:22:11. > :22:17.baby Mammoth. But this baby is quite old, 42,000 years old. It's the age

:22:18. > :22:21.and condition of this discovery that has excited scientists. This can't

:22:22. > :22:24.happen after all this time, it's really thrilling because I've been

:22:25. > :22:30.working on mammoths for most of my scientific career. To encounter a

:22:31. > :22:33.completely preserved individual, it's amazing. There's something

:22:34. > :22:38.about it that really hits you because it puts you in direct

:22:39. > :22:41.contact with that ice age world. The mammoth was discovered by this

:22:42. > :22:47.Russian deer herd and his son, six years ago. They work in a peninsular

:22:48. > :22:52.of Siberia. Undisturbed and covered in mud and I is for thousands of

:22:53. > :22:56.years, the mammoth was almost perfectly preserved. The hunter's

:22:57. > :23:01.prize for his discovery was naming the mammoth after his wife. You can

:23:02. > :23:05.see her tiny little tasks just sticking through, because she was a

:23:06. > :23:11.female mammoth and a baby, the tasks are very small. This is the milk

:23:12. > :23:15.task. She was only a month old when she died. Remnants of her mother's

:23:16. > :23:19.milk are still in her stomach, and scientists are hoping this new

:23:20. > :23:25.discovery will help them to get a better understanding of mammoth's

:23:26. > :23:28.biology and behaviour. You will be able to see it for yourself at the

:23:29. > :23:32.Natural History Museum from this Friday. That is extraordinary. What

:23:33. > :23:42.about the weather? A bit of rain across London this

:23:43. > :23:46.afternoon. We've got a slow breaking down of the warm and sunny weather

:23:47. > :23:52.we had to start this working week. It was cooler today out. As they go

:23:53. > :23:56.through the evening, there is a little hint of brightness in the sky

:23:57. > :24:00.but they have been some threatening, grey clouds as well. We

:24:01. > :24:05.could see one or two showers break`out tonight. At first there

:24:06. > :24:08.could be clearer skies, mist or fog patches developing across the Home

:24:09. > :24:13.Counties. It's towards the early hours that a bit of cloud will creep

:24:14. > :24:16.into the east. That may introduce one or two microlight bits and

:24:17. > :24:19.pieces rain through the early hours and the rush hour. Cool as well

:24:20. > :24:25.tonight, temperatures generally in double figures. We start the day

:24:26. > :24:29.tomorrow with cloud and the threat of bits and pieces of rain first

:24:30. > :24:33.thing. If you are waking up tomorrow and parts of Buckinghamshire and

:24:34. > :24:38.Berkshire, you might see some sunshine. The thickest of the cloud

:24:39. > :24:42.will be towards the Thames Estuary. Prepare for rain almost anywhere

:24:43. > :24:45.tomorrow, although it's only in the afternoon that there will perhaps be

:24:46. > :24:52.some heavy bursts. Temperatures are cooler. As we go through the evening

:24:53. > :24:56.tomorrow and through tomorrow night, that is when the weather

:24:57. > :25:00.front shows up. That looks as if it's going to give us quite a dose

:25:01. > :25:04.of rain. Some quite torrential rain across the Thames Estuary, up across

:25:05. > :25:08.Essex as well. It will be followed on by further bits and pieces from

:25:09. > :25:11.the south. Nowhere is immune on Wednesday night into Thursday to

:25:12. > :25:15.getting some really quite heavy rain. It sets us off on a rather

:25:16. > :25:20.showery tone as we head into the Bank Holiday weekend. For Thursday,

:25:21. > :25:25.there will be some sunny breaks and showers. Some of those will be quite

:25:26. > :25:29.heavy. There will be a breeze behind them. Quite a fine day if a little

:25:30. > :25:30.cloudy on Friday, but we have to prepare for some showers for the

:25:31. > :25:41.Bank Holiday weekend. The main news headlines. The search

:25:42. > :25:44.for four British sailors missing in the Mid`Atlantic since last Friday

:25:45. > :25:46.has resumed. The decision by the US Coastguard came after nearly 200,000

:25:47. > :25:55.people signed an online petition calling for a new search. The trial

:25:56. > :25:57.of Rolf Harris has heard from a fourth woman who claimed that the

:25:58. > :26:02.entertainer indecently assaulted her when she was 15 and on tour with her

:26:03. > :26:13.youth drama group. He denies all the charges. House prices are continuing

:26:14. > :26:16.to outstrip pay rises according to the latest official figures,

:26:17. > :26:19.particularly in the Capital. House prices went up by 8% in the last

:26:20. > :26:22.year nationally, but in London they grew by 17%. That's it, thanks for

:26:23. > :26:26.joining us. I'll be back later during the ten o'clock news. Until

:26:27. > :26:51.then, from me and the team here, have a lovely evening.

:26:52. > :26:56.Some people don't think real change in Europe is possible.

:26:57. > :27:00.Some people don't think real change is necessary.

:27:01. > :27:04.Some people don't think it's worth fighting for.

:27:05. > :27:06.But we want to make Europe work for Britain,

:27:07. > :27:11.and give you the final say with an in-out referendum in 2017.

:27:12. > :27:16.have made Britain's economy stronger and more competitive.

:27:17. > :27:22.a record number of people in work. And we're predicted to be

:27:23. > :27:26.the fastest-growing economy in the G7 this year.

:27:27. > :27:30.We're working through our long-term economic plan at home

:27:31. > :27:34.and we'll work through our plan to deliver real change in Europe too.

:27:35. > :27:38.David Cameron, backed by a strong team of Conservative MEPs,

:27:39. > :27:40.has taken action to stand up for Britain.

:27:41. > :27:43.Vetoing a new EU fiscal treaty that didn't guarantee

:27:44. > :27:47.a level playing field for British businesses.
