:00:09. > :00:12.are. Hundreds of convictions could be
:00:13. > :00:16.overturned after the Home Sdcretary orders review of cases involving
:00:17. > :00:23.undercover police officers. During the last couple of years through the
:00:24. > :00:28.endeavours of activists we have undercovered 50 miscarriages of
:00:29. > :00:31.justice. The Met Police says it will co`operate with the inquiry, but
:00:32. > :00:35.what will the cost be to its reputation. The mayor releases
:00:36. > :00:41.public land for new free schools. Unions say it's not the answer to
:00:42. > :00:47.the shortage of school placds. Those mortgage changes ` what will they

:01:10. > :01:15.Hundreds of convictions could be overturned as a result of a major
:01:16. > :01:20.review of cases involving undercover police officers. That is accord to a
:01:21. > :01:25.lawyer representing environlental activists who told BBC London that
:01:26. > :01:30.50 cases have already been puashed. The review will initially focus on
:01:31. > :01:36.criminal convictions includhng the Met's Special Demonstration Squad.
:01:37. > :01:46.He was known as Mark Stone, a dedicated green activist. In fact
:01:47. > :01:50.was Mark Kennedy of the Met Police, who infiltrated environment`l
:01:51. > :01:54.organisations. A criminal trial against protestors accused of
:01:55. > :01:59.planning to break into this power station in Nottingham collapsed in
:02:00. > :02:03.2011 because the undercover officer offered to give evidence on their
:02:04. > :02:08.behalf. Since then 50 criminal convictions have been overttrned.
:02:09. > :02:16.The majority linked to PC Kdn ne di. There will be a major review to show
:02:17. > :02:21.miscarriages of justice. Thhs was her reaction this year when
:02:22. > :02:25.revelations that an officer from the Special Demonstration Squad spied on
:02:26. > :02:30.the Stephen Lawrence family. The picture which emerges from the,
:02:31. > :02:35.about the SDS from this report and other material in the public domain
:02:36. > :02:39.is of significant failings of judgment, intrusive supervision and
:02:40. > :02:43.leadership over a sustained period. This afternoon, the lawyer who
:02:44. > :02:46.represents many of the green campaigners told BBC London the
:02:47. > :02:52.implications of this review are serious. I have no doubt th`t the 50
:02:53. > :02:57.miscarriages of justice is the tip of the iceberg. They have bden
:02:58. > :02:57.exposed by activists, lawyers and journalists.
:02:58. > :03:00.of the iceberg. They have bden exposed by activists, lawyers This
:03:01. > :03:06.is the first time this annotncement today, for there to be some
:03:07. > :03:12.innocent`ish scrutiny by people with proper access to all the files. One
:03:13. > :03:17.human rights charity is calling for judges to approve undercover
:03:18. > :03:22.operations. Internally they are authorised by the colleagues of the
:03:23. > :03:26.people carrying them out. There s no supervision. We have seen to time
:03:27. > :03:33.and time again this has led to grave abuses. This is the man leading the
:03:34. > :03:36.review, Mark Ellison the senior barrister, who published a
:03:37. > :03:41.condemning report into corrtption in the Stephen Lawrence investhgation
:03:42. > :03:45.and the role of undercover officers. A day later, the Met commissioner
:03:46. > :03:50.admitted mistakes had been lade This is an awful outcome. A terrible
:03:51. > :03:54.day yesterday, where obviously the results of Mark Ellison's inquiry
:03:55. > :04:01.told us some awful things about the past. So, I have to make sure that
:04:02. > :04:06.people have trust in the Met of today and of the future. Tonight the
:04:07. > :04:11.Met said it will co`operate fully with the review, which will look at
:04:12. > :04:17.unsafe convictions. Plenty more ahead tonight `
:04:18. > :04:20.including, after 90 years, one of the first purpose`built churches for
:04:21. > :04:27.deaf people is to hold its last service.
:04:28. > :04:33.The mayor has released publhc land and property to help tackle the
:04:34. > :04:37.chronic shortage of school places in the capital. The aim is to speed up
:04:38. > :04:41.the building of 11 new schools, nine of them free schools. Unions say it
:04:42. > :04:43.is not enough and that free schools are not the answer. Here is our
:04:44. > :04:55.political correspondent. Good morning, everybody. Undeterred,
:04:56. > :04:58.the mayor got on with one of his favourite things ` he likes opening
:04:59. > :05:03.stuff. Three, two, one.
:05:04. > :05:09.As it happens, the mayor didn't have much to do with King Fisher Hall
:05:10. > :05:15.Academy. When you announce plans for 11 new schools, this is as good a
:05:16. > :05:23.place as any to do it. # What a wonderful world
:05:24. > :05:30.The mayor said City Hall land and buildings will be used for the new
:05:31. > :05:37.schools. It will be handed, in nine cases, to six free schools. There is
:05:38. > :05:42.this one in Hampstead, which will become a new primary by 2014. It
:05:43. > :05:47.will create 7,000 new school places. London actually needs more than
:05:48. > :05:51.100,000 by 2016. They are not the whole solution. No`one is pretending
:05:52. > :05:56.that. This is part of the solution. I want to see loads more schools in
:05:57. > :06:02.Londonch we had 136,000 babhes born last year in London. Critics remain
:06:03. > :06:06.unconvinced that free schools are the answer to shortages. Thd problem
:06:07. > :06:11.we've got is local authorithes can no lodger open community schools. ``
:06:12. > :06:15.longer open community schools. It is only free schools and acadelies that
:06:16. > :06:20.can be opened now. It makes it difficult to plan. The head of King
:06:21. > :06:25.Fisher says free schools ard the only game in town at the molent It
:06:26. > :06:28.is not an ideological crusade. Free schools are what is best. It's
:06:29. > :06:33.what's on the table at the loment. It is what the Government are
:06:34. > :06:34.enabling people like us to set up free schools. There was a m`ssive
:06:35. > :06:50.demand in this area of London. Oh, my gosh! City Hall says the new
:06:51. > :06:56.schools announced will eithdr be up and running or being built by 2 16.
:06:57. > :07:00.The Government has announced security staff who carry out
:07:01. > :07:08.deportations are to be trained in new restraint techniques. It comes
:07:09. > :07:13.after a man was restrained on board a flight three years ago. Three
:07:14. > :07:18.employees are facing man sl`ughter charges.
:07:19. > :07:24.Members of three trade unions will walk out for 24 hours, from 8pm on
:07:25. > :07:28.Tuesday, after a breakdown hn talks. The union's cancelled a previous
:07:29. > :07:31.strike last month. London Underground claims there'll be no
:07:32. > :07:35.impact on the network should the strike go ahead. It has been
:07:36. > :07:39.confirmed that contracts have been signed by City Hall to buy three
:07:40. > :07:43.water cannon. The second`hand machines, brought from the German
:07:44. > :07:50.Federal Police, are costing ?216,000, which includes thd cost of
:07:51. > :07:53.transportation and modification Our political editor is outside Scotland
:07:54. > :07:57.Yard with more details. It hs one of the big questions here, isn't it?
:07:58. > :08:02.Why would you go ahead and buy these three cannon when they are not yet
:08:03. > :08:04.legal? When they still need approval from the Home Secretary. Of course
:08:05. > :08:08.they are still used in Northern Ireland at the moment, but have not
:08:09. > :08:11.been approved for use on thd mainland. One of the things the
:08:12. > :08:15.mayor says it is a foregone conclusion ` only a matter of time T
:08:16. > :08:20.other thing which is said and amplified today by the deputy mayor
:08:21. > :08:23.for policing is this was a time`limited offer availabld from
:08:24. > :08:27.the German police. We had to buy them now, by the end of Julx,
:08:28. > :08:31.otherwise the French would buy them. There are a number of peopld who are
:08:32. > :08:35.concerned, including Assembly Members, who say, why do we want
:08:36. > :08:39.these if the German police have decided they are defunct and they
:08:40. > :08:45.only have a limited use over a number of years. The deputy major
:08:46. > :08:51.for policing say it makes good sense. It will close a gap, in what
:08:52. > :08:55.he calls, the public order tool kit. Quite clearly there is a vidw that
:08:56. > :08:59.for a period of year thss whll be perfectly adequate to the t`sk. Not
:09:00. > :09:04.for as long as a new water cannon, but they are second`hand. There are
:09:05. > :09:09.second`hand markets for manx things. The second`hand market for water
:09:10. > :09:14.cannon is limited. As was pointeded out, this was a one`off opportunity
:09:15. > :09:17.to get great value for monex. So, they will be bought and transported
:09:18. > :09:22.over here, but not necessarhly ever used? No, and the mayor and the
:09:23. > :09:27.deputy mayor say it is a good thing. We don't want to have to usd them.
:09:28. > :09:30.They are jumping the gun n that the Home Secretary has not made that
:09:31. > :09:34.final decision yet. I think the mayor has been happy for it to be
:09:35. > :09:38.perceived he thinks she's going too slowly. She has made it cle`r she's
:09:39. > :09:41.not going to be bounced into a decision and the Home Officd have
:09:42. > :09:45.confirmed again today that they will make a decision in due course.
:09:46. > :09:51.Thank you. Celebrities, lawyers and he`lth
:09:52. > :09:56.experts are among 90 people who have writ on the the Prime Minister
:09:57. > :10:00.calling for current drug `` written to the Prime Minister calling for
:10:01. > :10:03.current drug laws to be changed The Government says that thd current
:10:04. > :10:07.legislation works and they have no plans to change it.
:10:08. > :10:10.We want drugs to be dealt whth through health and education
:10:11. > :10:14.approaches. At the minute, people are simply fined if they ard caught
:10:15. > :10:19.in possession of any drug. We want to see people diverted into a system
:10:20. > :10:23.that can support them to make healthy life choices. So, as we have
:10:24. > :10:26.been hearing the Bank of England is to introduce measures to help cool
:10:27. > :10:29.the housing market. The pacd of growth in London is currently
:10:30. > :10:36.running at twice the nation`l average, with houses going tp nearly
:10:37. > :10:40.20% annually. So, what does this mean for the average home btyer in
:10:41. > :10:46.the capital ` if there is stch a thing? This is all about salaries
:10:47. > :10:51.and affordability. From October the maximum lend will be capped at .5
:10:52. > :10:56.times your salary. Loans of more than that can only make up 05% of
:10:57. > :11:03.the bank's lending. What dods that mean for Londoners? The average wage
:11:04. > :11:08.is ?34,000. So, a couple both earning that could theatric`lly
:11:09. > :11:17.borrow ?316,000. They need ` deposit. Using the new mod ler, they
:11:18. > :11:21.could live in a few London boroughs, Red fields, Tower Hamlets, for
:11:22. > :11:26.example. They expect a small impact, mainly on people using the
:11:27. > :11:30.Government's Help to Buy Scheme You can borrow five times incomd and
:11:31. > :11:34.sometimes more. With these new rules that will be restricted to
:11:35. > :11:38.four`and`a`half times. It's only in London that people are lookhng to
:11:39. > :11:42.borrow more than four`and`a`half times, anyway. At the margin some
:11:43. > :11:46.will find they cannot buy the property they expected to bty. What
:11:47. > :11:51.about those who already own a property but will need to rdmortgage
:11:52. > :11:55.in future? Well, the Bank of England wants people to plan for th`t rainy
:11:56. > :12:01.day scenario, if and when r`tes go up. Banks will start to do that as
:12:02. > :12:04.well. Let's take this coupld in our illustration. That mortgage will
:12:05. > :12:08.cost them ?1400 a month, based on the best deal available. Thd bank
:12:09. > :12:14.wants to know, can they afford to pay if rates go up by 3%? If that
:12:15. > :12:19.happens, they would need to find ?1900 a month. An extra ?500. Don't
:12:20. > :12:23.panic, that will not happen overnight. Banks have been tses this
:12:24. > :12:28.in their calculations for ydars Lenders have to take a five`year
:12:29. > :12:33.view. Most have been working on the basis of using an interest rate of
:12:34. > :12:37.7`7.5% to assess affordabilhty. That is sensible. Clearly you don't want
:12:38. > :12:42.people to borrow which they cannot afford when rates go up. Thdy have
:12:43. > :12:47.been doing that. That is whx forcing lenders to apply a stress tdst rate
:12:48. > :12:52.of 3% above the current ratd actually requires them to do what
:12:53. > :12:57.they are voluntarily doing `nyway, purely as part of prudent ldnding.
:12:58. > :13:01.This is about laying down requirements ` boundaries, so when
:13:02. > :13:06.things pick up, banks do not return to that, or risk return to that
:13:07. > :13:10.reckless lending. Lots of the measures about cooling London's
:13:11. > :13:16.housing market, with minimul effect elsewhere. The advice to anxbody is
:13:17. > :13:25.if you are not sure and you are in a position to do so, try and fix
:13:26. > :13:35.something. Rates can only go one way Still to come... We used to do music
:13:36. > :13:43.videos. And we do feature fhlms I speak to Max Dania about their
:13:44. > :13:46.ambitions as London directors. I have spent the day with ptpils
:13:47. > :13:49.from a school in Merton who got their tickets for Wimbledon in a
:13:50. > :14:00.very special ballot. After 90 years of services
:14:01. > :14:03.in sign language, one of thd first purpose`built churches for deaf
:14:04. > :14:05.people is to hold its last service. The deaf charity which built
:14:06. > :14:08.St Saviour's church in Acton need to sell because it can't afford to
:14:09. > :14:11.meet the substantial repair costs As Charlotte Franks reports,
:14:12. > :14:15.many feel they are losing more than Familiar surroundings
:14:16. > :14:17.for many churchgoers, but the type of service,
:14:18. > :14:20.not so conventional. It's a service specifically
:14:21. > :14:24.for deaf people She's been coming to the chtrch
:14:25. > :14:32.for the last 30 years, but today I've been to so many servicds here `
:14:33. > :14:42.baptisms... They are very precious to md.
:14:43. > :14:50.Very precious. St Saviour's was built by
:14:51. > :14:53.a deaf charity almost 20 ye`rs ago. It will be sold on after proving
:14:54. > :15:01.too expensive to maintain. It first moved to Acton
:15:02. > :15:04.after it was relocated from The new building's design
:15:05. > :15:08.was carefully thought out. The church was built specifhcally
:15:09. > :15:11.for the deaf community. There are chairs instead of pews to
:15:12. > :15:15.avoid restricted use and by signing. There are lecterns at either side
:15:16. > :15:18.of the altar, one for a spe`ker and the floor slopes up tow`rds
:15:19. > :15:25.the back to allow everyone to see. One day, I met a friend of line and
:15:26. > :15:29.he brought me here to the ddaf club. I feel very sad that it's
:15:30. > :15:38.not going to be here. The church is still looking
:15:39. > :15:42.for a new home. They filmed by first Communhon
:15:43. > :15:49.service here. And now we are filming you now,
:15:50. > :16:00.one of the last. Still sad.
:16:01. > :16:12.Still sad. Vera Hunt ending that report from
:16:13. > :16:16.Charlotte Franks. It's been another busy day
:16:17. > :16:19.at the All England Club and, as always,
:16:20. > :16:21.demand for tickets is high. But there are thousands of tickets
:16:22. > :16:25.reserved for a very special ballot. Sara Orchard is at Wimbledon
:16:26. > :16:30.and can tell us more ` fair to say neither
:16:31. > :16:45.of us would qualify! No, unfortunately both you `nd I are
:16:46. > :16:50.past it. It is a very speci`l ballot just for schoolchildren. Yot can
:16:51. > :16:54.tell it has just started rahning and they have put the covers on the
:16:55. > :16:57.courts, but it was sunny earlier and I got to spend the day with some
:16:58. > :17:01.schoolchildren who have got some of these very special tickets. They
:17:02. > :17:03.were having their first ever visit to S W 19.
:17:04. > :17:06.Nearly half a million peopld visit the All England Club every summer.
:17:07. > :17:08.But every day of the championships, a small number
:17:09. > :17:11.of tickets are reserved for schools up and down the country.
:17:12. > :17:14.It's just a brilliant opportunity for schoolchildren to come here
:17:15. > :17:19.Hopefully they get really enthused by watching the tennis
:17:20. > :17:26.These eight boys from Rutledge School have tickets for Court 2
:17:27. > :17:29.The school has sold them at half price
:17:30. > :17:36.Most of them have never been before and it is
:17:37. > :17:40.They have been amazed at thd standard of tennis they are seeing.
:17:41. > :17:43.They have never come across it before.
:17:44. > :17:50.All the children are on the school tennis team btt a
:17:51. > :17:53.visit to Wimbledon is as much about learning about its history `nd
:17:54. > :17:58.It was so big and everything was so well`prepared.
:17:59. > :18:01.It was really nice to see in real life.
:18:02. > :18:04.I thought it was amazing th`t the grass is so clean.
:18:05. > :18:08.It's such a big occasion and how the nerves can get to some people,
:18:09. > :18:13.but some people have differdnt personalities so they can fhght
:18:14. > :18:15.Rutledge is an all boys comprehensive
:18:16. > :18:18.and any school can apply for tickets if they are signed up to
:18:19. > :18:26.We have boys from all backgrounds and we wanted the opportunity to
:18:27. > :18:30.We have boys playing on the tennis team who are really
:18:31. > :18:32.keen to go and probably nevdr had the opportunity before.
:18:33. > :18:38.Hopefully, but I would like to be a ball boy first.
:18:39. > :18:41.It would be epic and it would be a life opportunity.
:18:42. > :18:46.I would one day want to be playing at Wimbledon.
:18:47. > :18:48.The Rutledge year seven tennis team today.
:18:49. > :19:02.They had a pretty good day. It is raining at the moment. We h`d

:20:45. > :20:49.we struck a cord. It is verx British as well. We get swamped with a lot
:20:50. > :21:02.of American films but they wanted their own identity to show how good
