cyanide poisoning. When these concerns were put to the cotnty | :03:09. | :03:09. | |
concerns were put to the county council, they denied the site had | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
ever been used as a landfill, saying: | :03:13. | :03:35. | |
properties search will reveal the area is shown as landfill. The | :03:36. | :03:42. | |
report says there is the potential for significant ground contamination | :03:43. | :03:43. | |
for significant ground cont`mination to exist. | :03:44. | :04:12. | |
For those who live here, there is still deep concern. I think they are | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
trying to cover`up. The longer it goes on, the more momentum gathers. | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
A lot of people are really concerned. Not just neighbours | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
A lot of people are really concerned. Not just neighbotrs from | :04:25. | :04:25. | |
concerned. Not just neighbours from around here, but people who live | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
locally. Those concerns are shared by the family. It seems as though | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
the various agencies involvdd are the various agencies involved are | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
actively working against providing any information and that should | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
cause some concern as to the any information and that should | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
cause some concern as to thd trust that we should have as a public. An | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
inquest into the death has been opened and adjourned pending | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
toxicology report. For his parents, they hope that will finally give | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
them the answers they're looking for. | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
Alex joins me now. You've spoken to the county council. What have they | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
said? They have been reluctant to said? They have been reluct`nt to | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
account for that apparent discrepancy between their stated | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
view that this was not a landfill site and the various public records | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
detailed that say definitivdly it detailed that say definitively it | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
is. They say that because the investigation is ongoing, they won't | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
be drawn and will not comment, although that hasn't stopped them, | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
frankly, before. In their ddfence, frankly, before. In their defence, | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
what is most important is not whether it was a landfill site but | :05:26. | :05:27. | |
whether it was a landfill shte but whether it was contaminated, | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
poisonous, whether it killed the boy. The family want answers. The | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
father has been left crippled, the father has been left crippldd, the | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
mother is inconsolable with grief, both morning the loss of thd | :05:37. | :05:41. | |

seven`year`old. We won't get anywhere towards those answers until | :05:43. | :05:43. | |
anywhere towards those answdrs until toxicology reports come back and | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
that may be some time yet. Thank you for that. | :05:47. | :05:55. | |
Coming up: Emotions run high after a council steps in to save a London | :05:56. | :05:59. | |

David Cameron has been in touch with the Prime Minister of Malaysia about | :06:07. | :06:12. | |

can't see that we're not gohng to can't see that we're not going to | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
find him. The Malaysia and authorities were initially | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
criticised for how they conducted their search, some saying they were | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
slow to respond. But their hncreased activity in recent days has left | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
David Cameron to give a call of thanks to the Malaysia primer list | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
thanks to the Malaysia primdr list of their extensive efforts. We have | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
a chance to find him. I pray that we a chance to find him. I prax that we | :07:23. | :07:30. | |
will find him very soon. He may have been tracking in a well`known | :07:31. | :07:34. | |

behind this. Friends and falily remain upbeat but this can't mask | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
their deep concern. They're hoping this increased rescue effort will | :08:08. | :08:09. | |
lead to Gareth Huntley's safe return. | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
A cyclist has died after colliding with a lorry in Vauxhall. Police | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
said the accident happened shortly before 7am this morning and involved | :08:20. | :08:24. | |

murdered by rival gang membdrs. While growing up in Croydon, he too | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
struggled to stay out of trouble and ended up with a five`year jail | :09:08. | :09:09. | |

of following in his footsteps. Go back ten years ago and someone had | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
asked me if I was again, I would say no. I thought it was my friends | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
asked me if I was again, I would say no. I thought it was my fridnds and | :09:40. | :09:39. | |
no. I thought it was my friends and my family. It's only now I realise ` | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
this is the point I'm trying to get across to young people. Carl is also | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
an ex`offender who got into trouble with gangs. He has the scars to | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
prove it. These wounds are the result of being shot at point`blank | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
range in a nightclub. It mentally broke me down. Mentally, phxsically, | :10:00. | :10:01. | |
emotionally, it all broke me down. emotionally, it all broke md down. | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
Knocking on my door every day. I had to find the strength to pick myself | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
up. The latest figures show there are more than 220 known gangs in the | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
capital, with nearly 3500 gang members. Almost all are mald and | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
members. Almost all are male and over two thirds aged between 17 and | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
23. The majority are from a black and ethnic minority backgrotnd. At | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
an anti`gang summit today, Boris Johnson announced his ambithon to | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
focus on preventing and web are gang violence before it happens. We know | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
we have a gangs problem abott violence before it happens. We know | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
we have a gangs problem abott which there can be absolutely no cause for | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
complacency and we need to think about what we're doing right, where | :10:43. | :10:43. | |
we're going wrong and what more we we're going wrong and what more we | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
we're going wrong and what lore we can do to help. And Junior Smart, | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
himself an ex`offender, is one of those helping. He runs the largest | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
anti`gang project in London, servicing 15 borrowers. It needs to | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
be properly resourced and that can only happen through proper funding, | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
long`term funding, because what we're trying to do here is developed | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
young people to actually turn them away from their previous choices. | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
Gang crime has dropped by almost a quarter in the past year but over | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
the next decade, London's tdenage population is predicted to rise by | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
15%. All the more reason, the mayor says, for concentrating on | :11:24. | :11:24. | |
prevention. It's one of the Mayor's flagship | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
transport schemes and Barcl`ys in the end will have paid ?25 | :11:30. | :11:31. | |
million to sponsor it. But | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
following their decision to pull out of the bike hire scheme, the Mayor | :11:35. | :11:36. | |
is now looking for a new backer The Barclays deal has been | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
criticised for being too So how much will | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
a new sponsor have to invest to get their names on the bikes | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
and what will they get in rdturn? Here's our transport | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
correspondent Tom Edwards. Hire bikes a are common sight now in | :11:50. | :11:50. | |
the capital, and while there have been gripes over fees, capacity and | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
customer service, many like them. It's a convenient option | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
and gets you around town It was much more comfortabld, | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
especially with the weather. It's green, | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
it's just a cool experience. Now, though, Transport for London | :12:06. | :12:13. | |
want a new sponsor. They're looking for at least ?5 5 | :12:14. | :12:15. | |
million a year over eight years. As well as the branding, | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
we could feasibly see a whole new The controversial cycle | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
superhighways won't be included They're at the moment also | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
sponsored by Barclays. We could, though, see | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
a new sponsor for them next summer. Critics say the deal with B`rclays | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
was far too favourable. It had pledged ?50 million until | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
2018 but getting out after five Part of the deal meant that | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
payments were linked to usage. Do you think it was a fair deal | :12:50. | :12:57. | |
at the time? The work that we've done since says, | :12:58. | :13:00. | |
even now, that it is a good deal. There are lessons | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
that we've learned. I think particularly | :13:05. | :13:05. | |
the fact that the initial contract at factors in like the number | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
of people who use the schemd. The hire scheme cost ?140 million | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
to set up but the sponsorshhp only Latest figures show it cost ?24 | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
million a year to operate and that need the sponsorshhp to | :13:17. | :13:30. | |
bring in 12.9 million. The rest comes from the public | :13:31. | :13:32. | |
purse, TfL, 11.1 million. The expectation now is | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
for a much better deal than the Barclays sponsorship, especially | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
as the scheme's got bigger. There have been lots of numbers | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
thrown around but the reality is they've never put in the money that | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
we thought that there should have been and the publicity you get from | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
sponsoring the cycle hire should mean that you should pay a huge | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
amount of money for it and H think going forward, we need a re`lly | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
enthusiastic sponsor, someone who is into cycling, wants to promote it, | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
get their staff cycling and put some fun and creativity back into | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
the cycle hire scheme in London Transport bosses say there's | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
already been lots of interest. This is an extremely high | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
profile scheme but that will also We can talk to Tom now. What is your | :14:06. | :14:26. | |
assessment of this? What it's really about is cash and how TfL is | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
changing as an organisation. I've mentioned before, they've got to | :14:31. | :14:32. | |
make savings, efficiencies, of 4 make savings, efficiencies, of 4 | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
billion over the next four years make savings, efficiencies, of ?4 | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
billion over the next four years or so but they've also got to lake | :14:38. | :14:39. | |
billion over the next four xears or so but they've also got to make a | :14:40. | :14:39. | |
so but they've also got to lake a lot of money. I've got the latest | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
figures here. ?3.5 billion over the next ten years, ?1 billion in new | :14:44. | :14:51. | |
activity. Huge numbers. That means, I think, we will probably sde more | :14:52. | :14:53. | |
of this, more sponsorship. Also, we of this, more sponsorship. @lso we | :14:54. | :15:00. | |
will definitely see TfL becoming more commercial. Thank you, Tom | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
Edwards. Still to come: Is this guy the | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
limit? How is the skyline going to change over the next decade and who | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
is it changing for? Join me later. And from the sports field to | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
fighting for their country, we look at the contribution made by the | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
capital's sportsmen during the First World War. | :15:24. | :15:32. | |
The newly elected Labour leader of hazards and Fulham Council has | :15:33. | :15:34. | |
promised to try to save a school that was under threat of closure. | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
Sullivan primary was due to merge with a nearby school, with its site | :15:39. | :15:40. | |
with a nearby school, with hts site taken over by a new preschool. | :15:41. | :15:50. | |
It's been an incredible year. A roller`coaster is an | :15:51. | :15:50. | |
underestimation. But the amazing underestimation. But the amazing | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
staff in this room have carried us through. | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
APPLAUSE An assembly with a difference at | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
Sullivan primary this morning. No pupils but plenty of emotion. Until | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
last week, these teachers thought this school was going to close in | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
September to make way for a new secondary free school for boys. But | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
the recent elections have changed all that with the new Labour council | :16:18. | :16:20. | |
saying it will build more homes locally so the school will still | :16:21. | :16:22. | |
believe it. We cannot ignord the believe it. We cannot ignore the | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
fact that this administration will build homes for UK residents instead | :16:27. | :16:28. | |

be able to continue on our journey. That journey is not over. There may | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
be challenges to the decision. I have had six children come to this | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
goal. They have all done well in life. The council and the Government | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
say they will continue to look for a new site at the boys school. | :17:29. | :17:46. | |
It's a continuing debate ` in an increasingly crowded city, should we | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
be building upwards to satisfy the demand for office space and homes? | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
More than 200 high`rise towers are planned | :17:53. | :17:54. | |
But critics, including the Prince of Wales, believe such developments | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
are threatening some of our best`known historic landmarks. | :17:59. | :18:00. | |
Let's get more on this from Alice Bhandhukravi. | :18:01. | :18:02. | |
You will see behind me some of London's most famous tall | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
buildings, the gherkin, the cheese grater and the walkie`talkie as they | :18:06. | :18:06. | |
grater and the walkie`talkid as they are affectionately known. It's the | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
London Festival of architecture this week and tonight, the key debate | :18:10. | :18:11. | |
centres on whether London ndeds week and tonight, the key ddbate | :18:12. | :18:12. | |

tall buildings. I've been speaking to some of those making thehr case. | :18:18. | :18:19. | |
to some of those making their case. A vision of the future, an `rtist's | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
impression of what London's skyline will look like once the 200 | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
skyscrapers that are in the pipeline have gone up. This one, which is in | :18:29. | :18:35. | |
Blackfriars, was nicknamed the Boomerangs. That is going to be a | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
housing scheme. Here, they say it is inevitable that as the city grows we | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
build upwards. I like tall buildings. I think the gherkin and | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
the Shard have hugely improved the guidelines. I think we've got to | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
aspire to delivering the same guidelines. I think we've got to | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
aspire to delivering the sale sort aspire to delivering the same sort | :18:56. | :18:56. | |
of quality to buildings right along the river, down Canary Wharf. I | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
think if we get the right qtality, these can really enhance the skyline | :19:03. | :19:03. | |
these can really enhance thd skyline and provide the accommodation London | :19:04. | :19:05. | |
needs. Nobody is arguing th`t point. needs. Nobody is arguing that point. | :19:06. | :19:13. | |
The need for accommodation will only become more desperate as we grow. | :19:14. | :19:15. | |
But some believe that in thd become more desperate as we grow. | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
But some believe that in the quest But some believe that in the quest | :19:20. | :19:20. | |
for housing, we've been too quick to embrace the tall. I think London | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
needs a much higher level of thoughtful planning and it's getting | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
now. It's facing an incredible challenge of a population growth and | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
housing need. The addiction to building towers is a sign of failure | :19:35. | :19:36. | |
of that policy, not success. We re of that policy, not success. We re | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
addicted to building towers? We re getting that way, yes. It is seen as | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
an easy solution to knock a few numbers of the housing targdt. The | :19:47. | :19:49. | |
view from this bar shows how much of element is taking place. The Labour | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
element is taking place. Thd Labour group on the London assembly say | :19:53. | :19:54. | |
group on the London assemblx say developers are building for the rich | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
at the expense of those who need it most. The amount that has bden | :19:58. | :19:59. | |
at the expense of those who need it most. The amount that has been given | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
for affordable housing is qtite derisory. It isn't on`site. The | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
affordable housing will be some distance away and what you are | :20:08. | :20:09. | |
doing, therefore, is physic`lly doing, therefore, is physically | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
reenforcing the segregation of communities and one of the | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
distinctive hallmarks of London is its mixed income communities. | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
Another of its distinctive hallmarks is its skyline, skyline that is | :20:23. | :20:24. | |
likely to appear more populated the likely to appear more popul`ted the | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
future. It would be unfair to say that any | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
of those people I spoke to on this subject are dead set against the | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
idea of skyscrapers in general. In fact, recently become aggregate in | :20:39. | :20:44. | |

the war. 100 years on from the First World War, this rugby club in | :21:24. | :21:26. | |

south`west London is unveiling a new memorial to the fallen. As part of | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
the commemorations, I have been asked to put the boots back on, to | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
play in a special match, exactly asked to put the boots back on, to | :21:36. | :21:37. | |

it would have been in 1914. In August of that year, Britain | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
declared war on Germany and the Government immediately asked for | :21:47. | :21:48. | |
volunteers to fight for King and country. Rugby, as an amateur sport, | :21:49. | :21:57. | |

was very quick to volunteer. 90 of the guys in the study volunteered in | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
August or September, the first two months of war. The reason so many | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
rugby players signed up, it goes back to the public school ethos. | :22:11. | :22:14. | |

getting up in the line of fhre, to lead men into battle. Bravery, | :22:28. | :22:35. | |
gallantry, heroics. All words associated with these players at the | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
time. One such rugby player was Jack. His great nephew, Edw`rd, is | :22:40. | :22:47. | |
fortunate to still have the letters Jack wrote home from the front. He | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
grew up with three other brothers. There were 16 children altogether. | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
He was brought up at a housd called Ivy Lodge. There is an example | :23:01. | :23:08. | |
here. I hope you are keeping well. I asked to have a new glass put | :23:09. | :23:10. | |

tonight at 7:30pm for here on BBC One. Let's see how the weather is | :23:50. | :23:57. | |
shaping up. It is the beginning of June. | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
It is the start of summer. @ very difficult week. No two days the | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
same. I am trying to go with something approximating a hdadline. | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
something approximating a headline. We do have some rainy days. No two | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
days of the same as we go through the next view. Let's take it day by | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
day. We have had some warm sunshine. A slice of sunshine is just across | :24:25. | :24:26. | |
the London area. We had somd cloud the London area. We had somd cloud | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
bubbling up for the second day in a row. It felt like summer. As we go | :24:32. | :24:36. | |
through this evening and ovdrnight, a B'nai night. Quite a bit of cloud. | :24:37. | :24:43. | |
The odd shower floating arotnd. Not a cold start tomorrow morning. There | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
will be quite a bit of cloud. Some sunshine at times. Showers to work | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
their way through. As we go through the afternoon, we have the chance of | :24:55. | :24:57. | |
all of seeing some showers cropping up. Because there is not much wind, | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
it could be quite slow moving. You could avoid them altogether. We | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
could have some good spells of sunshine. Best 19, 20 Celsius. House | :25:08. | :25:13. | |

hours of Wednesday, an area of low pressure tracking up from the south. | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
This brings rain right the way through the early hours of Wednesday | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
and then for Wednesday at South. There will be occasionally some | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
breaks in the rain. It stays with us through the day as it slowly | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
breaks in the rain. It stays with us through the day as it slowlx tracks | :25:35. | :25:36. | |

there will not be any sunshhne there will not be any sunshhne | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
around, it will feel quite chilly. You will notice a marked difference | :25:43. | :25:46. | |
on Wednesday. The area of low pressure does pull away in the early | :25:47. | :25:48. | |
hours of Thursday morning. As it hours of Thursday morning. As it | :25:49. | :25:50. | |
pulls away, we will see a rhdge of pulls away, we will see a ridge of | :25:51. | :25:52. | |
high pressure building in. @s that high pressure building in. As that | :25:53. | :25:56. | |
happens, it turns into a much nicer day on Thursday. If you are looking | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
for a day to get out and about, you will be dodging the showers. On | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
Thursday, a much better day is likely. It will feel cold and rainy | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
on Wednesday. Temperatures struggling below where they should | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
be. Back to square one on Friday with more rain. I have noted the | :26:16. | :26:23. | |
