of the capital's tax rates? A group of MPs backs the Maxor's | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
idea for this new power. I think what the committee has said | :00:12. | :00:18. | |
is fantastic. We look at whether the plans to give | :00:19. | :00:24. | |

Good evening and welcome to the programmd. | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
Who should decide how much Londoners pay in tax? | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
That's currently a decision for the Chancellor in Downing Street. | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
But there are growing calls for City Hall and the Mayor to have | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
a say in levels of tax, such as business rates | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
Today a committee of MPs added their voice, saying the change wotld | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
improve local economies not just in London but across the cotntry. | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
Our political editor Tim Donovan has the story. | :01:26. | :01:37. | |
The Mayor today at the finals of the London's schools quiz. One puestion | :01:38. | :01:46. | |
understandably not asked here, how much of London's income comds from | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
taxes London raises. Although he knows the answer. It is onlx about | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
7%. We would like to push it up to 12%. That is why the verdict of MPs | :01:59. | :02:06. | |
today is welcomed. They are the motors of the economy saying this is | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
a way we can devolve some fhscal power to use, to use it to raise | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
money for infrastructure schemes, for new housing that is desperately | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
needed, and a way of encour`ging local politicians to go for broke. | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
But what exactly should be fiscally devolve? That is given to London to | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
raise and spend. A committed of MPs say property taxes, for a start | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
That is what is raised from business rates. The proceeds of stamp duty | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
charged on London's homes and full unrestricted freedom over council | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
tax. If it is property taxes, that money will go up over the ydars | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
Then London can retain the hncrease in income. Then it can spend it on | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
things London needs. This whll not pay for a new Crossrail but it may | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
pay for some new planning work to be done. With new powers for t`x being | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
considered for Scotland and Wales, shouldn't London have some freedom? | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
Probably stay centralised, `t least you can account for the mondy. If it | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
means all the money on London goes to London the rest of the country | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
will be struggling and that does not seem fair because London dods suck | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
in all the jobs. No anything that gives more powers and less to the | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
politicians would be great. Does it do that if you are just passing it | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
from central government to the Mayor? Do we trust the Mayor more | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
than the MPs? You are leaving the question hanging, try and answer it. | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
The jury is out! But Acclail today will was this could lead to higher | :03:53. | :03:53. | |
taxes. He has eyed the prize, the case has | :03:54. | :04:14. | |
been made, but the argument is yet to be won. | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
Tim is here. On that note, `n interesting case which has been | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
mentioned before, let's talk about how realistic it is. No exchequer | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
wants to relinquish control of the reins. Labour have started saying | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
this, we would devolve a lot more power and let people raise lore | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
money locally and so on. Thhs government has gradually st`rted to | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
do that, recently on aspects such as housing etc. We heard from the | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
Department for Communities `nd Local Government but the Treasury said we | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
will keep this under review but there is no immediate sign of | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
changing the tax composition, it is very consecrated. Stamp dutx, | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
council tax, business rates in particular, these are national taxes | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
which are important to set nationally because it is only | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
central government which can decide where around the country whdre needs | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
the money and when. But cle`rly the signs of debate are shifting. | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
Someone like Mark Field, an MP in central London will say the genie is | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
out of the bottle. He will say going into the next mayoral electhon in | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
2016, he would expect candidates of all political hue to say and push | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
for this. You start to wonddr how long it is before central government | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
can hold out, if you like, without making some concessions tow`rds | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
this. Thank you, our political editor Tim Donovan. | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
A closer look at the plans to improve one | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
of the worst junctions in London for pedestrian and cyclist safety. | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
The mother of Mark Duggan ` whose shooting by police sp`rked | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
the London riots in 2011 ` is challenging the verdict of | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
It concluded that the 29 year`old was ?lawfully killdd?. | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
Nick Beake joins us from thd High Court. | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
They want that verdict quashed. Today, Mark Duggan's mother and | :06:15. | :06:30. | |
friends and family were in ` packed courtroom to hear what was hn the | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
most part some pretty compldx legal argument. The coroner at thd inquest | :06:35. | :06:42. | |
misdirected the jury. It was back in January when the jury concltded that | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
Mark Duggan was not holding a gun when he was shot dead by a | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
Metropolitan Police officer, and yet they recorded a verdict of tnlawful | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
killing. Michael Mansfield PC, the barrister for the family, asked the | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
question that how can it be that a man who is manifestly an arl to be | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
lawfully shot? Lord Leveson said this afternoon he accepted that | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
there was grave room for misunderstanding of the verdict | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
Once again, we heard about the events of the 4th of August 201 . | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
Mark Duggan was in a mini c`b which was intercepted by police officers. | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
He got out and was shot by ` police marksman. He was shot twice by the | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
officer because he thought Lark Duggan was holding a gun in a black | :07:32. | :07:43. | |
sock. Who else did the court hear from? We heard from Ashley Tnderwood | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
QC. He said the coroner had been right to give the jury the option of | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
unlawful killing and he had not misdirected them. There was much | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
argument about what constittted self defence, particularly when | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
someone's life was in dangerous In legal papers Ashley Underwood said | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
the officer innocently convhnced himself after the shooting that Mark | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
Duggan had a gun. We can expect more legal argument tomorrow. Basically, | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
the family want this verdict to be quashed. Lord Leveson said this was | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
in the public interest to a large extent but he did warn that it might | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
not be until the autumn that we get a result in this hearing. Thank you. | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
Kash Ryan waited more than four years for a kidney transplant | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
and saw her sister die while waiting for one. | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
She's now part of the campahgn to encourage more people from dthnic | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
In the capital two`thirds of patients on | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
the transplant waiting list are from the black and Asian communities | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
Once upon a time, feeding the birds would have been beyond Kash Ryan. To | :08:46. | :09:00. | |
be honest, she is still not much of a fan but these are her husband s | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
hobby. Four years ago she w`s spending time in hospital on | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
dialysis waiting for a kidndy transplant. Then the call fhnally | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
came. My daughter was in thd background and she knew somdthing | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
exciting was happening. I r`ng my husband and asked how quickly he | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
could get home to look after our daughter. I do not know how he got | :09:25. | :09:32. | |
here, on a flying carpet it seemed! Cash was lucky. Ethnic minority | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
donors are hard to come by. My sister was in need of a kidney | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
transplant and a bone marrow transplant and she got neither. It | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
was after her passing in December, it was then in February her birthday | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
that I got this wonderful c`ll for my own gift of life. A lot of people | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
will never get round to filling out the forms... Although the ntmbers | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
for organ donation are up, the case for black and Asian people hs | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
tougher. 66% of people on the organ donor register are from ethnic | :10:11. | :10:18. | |
minorities. It is important that people from those groups and | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
communities should talk abott organ donation. The black and Asi`n | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
community are more prone to hypertension and diabetes and that | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
leads to organ failure. Those communities will potentiallx need | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
organ transplants. It is a wonderful blessing that I am | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
here today, talking to you `nd I have also got my daughter... Cash | :10:42. | :10:49. | |
Ryan says her daughter is already signed up for when she is old | :10:50. | :10:50. | |
enough. Three men have been arrested | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
on suspicion of terrorism offences Counter terrorism officers `rrested | :10:56. | :10:57. | |
two men in Slough and one in Buckinghamshire. | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
They've been bailed until Atgust. The spending regulator has | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
criticised the way the Government handled | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
the new Thameslink train contract. The National Audit Office s`ys | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
the ?2.8 billion contract for the commuter service was awarded | :11:07. | :11:08. | |
by the Department for Transport despite not having led | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
a major rolling stock deal before. The Rail Minister and Wimblddon | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
MP Stephen Hammond said the deal It's one | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
of the most dangerous juncthons And today we got to see plans | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
for how Vauxhall gyratory The plans include creating | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
the first segregated super`highway Let's get more | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
from our transport correspondent If you know this area, you will know | :11:32. | :11:48. | |
Vauxhall directory is appalling if you are a pedestrian or a cxclist | :11:49. | :11:55. | |
trying to get through here `` gyro to re`. It is `` this is ond of the | :11:56. | :12:09. | |
worst junctions in London for cyclists and pedestrians. L`st | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
month, a cyclist died here. I think it is awful, horrendous. It is very | :12:16. | :12:23. | |
tricky. It is very scary. Now the plan is to change it from this, to | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
this. Under this bridge, coling across here, onto Vauxhall Bridge. | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
You will be able to cycle in both directions in a protected L`ne | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
without ever having to deal with the traffic. The proposal segregates | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
cyclists from the traffic to make it safer, borrowing ideas from Holland. | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
This is just the start of some long`awaited changes to London's | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
streets. Because it is the first junction to be re`done, it will come | :12:59. | :13:04. | |
under huge scrutiny from cyclists and also motorists who fear it will | :13:05. | :13:10. | |
increase congestion. The amount of road space we are removing hs tiny. | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
There will be slight increases for some users at busy times but that is | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
really necessary because thd 30 0 cyclists are using this junction and | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
it is one of the most dangerous and deadly in London. So far, most | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
campaigners have welcomed the plans but there is frustration at the rate | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
of change. I think TFL need to do something about the central area in | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
Vauxhall. There is conflict there. Overall, a huge improvement on | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
anything that was planned, dven four years ago. The most difficult bits | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
in terms of engineering but it is not impossible and we need that work | :13:51. | :13:57. | |
to crack on so we can start creating a genuine pedestrian and cycle | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
friendly area in London. Work could start by the end of the year. This | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
might be the start of big changes on the capital's streets but the | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
transformation could take m`ny years. | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
These were not the only plans published today. There were also | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
some junction improvements published on oval site `` superhighwax seven. | :14:19. | :14:26. | |
They have also gone down prdtty well with cycling groups. | :14:27. | :14:33. | |
Football has Wembley, rugby ? Twickenham. | :14:34. | :14:35. | |
Now there's a new home for Dngland's hockey players in Lee Vallex. | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
And one of the last century's most influential novelists is honoured | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
with a new exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery. | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
Next, Smithfield ` a tale of two markets. | :14:49. | :14:51. | |
While the meat market has prosperdd.. the | :14:52. | :14:52. | |
area where fish, fruit and veg were once sold has | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
And now the latest plans to redevelop it have been rejected by | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
the Government despite having the backing of some heritage groups | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
So what does the future hold for the historic site? | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
It once lay at the heart of the city, built by the same man who | :15:07. | :15:20. | |
designed London Bridge. While everywhere else is still full of | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
fresh life, not much moved here This end of Smithfield markdt has | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
become a windy, forgotten corner of finding. It is not doing local | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
business any good. Dell Athdre is no place to sit down. `` there is no | :15:35. | :15:42. | |
place to sit down. There is nothing here. The latest plan would have | :15:43. | :15:50. | |
kept the shell of the market. It was rejected because there were fears it | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
would harm the building and the area. It is putting two small | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
conservation organisations `gainst the might of the city of London and | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
some very powerful developers. Why do you think you won? These are | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
really good buildings. Their future is important for the whole of this | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
area and the proposals were very damaging. Developers are furious. | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
They say the scheme would h`ve saved Smithfield. The decision will | :16:19. | :16:28. | |
condemn the buildings to continued decay and uncertainty. The battle | :16:29. | :16:30. | |
raises important questions `bout what should happen to places like | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
Smithfield market. Regeneration of places like Common Garden show what | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
can be done. The city of London argues it has even more pressing | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
economic needs it cannot ignore We're not in the business of | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
recreating Victorian London. We re here to have new, upmarket, good | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
quality office accommodation, respect for a conservation `rea not | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
to be dominated by it. We think we have a balance here. Not only has | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
this caused a division betwden heritage groups who work together, | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
it has highlighted that plans that seem to be a certain success can | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
fail. The leaseholders have until 2020 to come up with another plan. | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
Until then, Smithfield stands untouched. | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
It might not be as big as Wembley or Twickenham, | :17:22. | :17:23. | |
but the sport of hockey now has its very own home in the capital. | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
England's men's and women's teams are playing their | :17:28. | :17:29. | |
first matches at the Lee Valley site on the Olympic Park today. | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
Our sports reporter Chris Slegg went along. | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
The honour of playing the fhrst`ever international match at the new home | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
of England hockey went to... Scotland. Their women's teal took on | :17:44. | :17:49. | |
South Africa in the London cut this morning and despite a 2`0 ddfeat, | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
they seemed pretty impressed with the new venue. It is fantastic. It | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
is a brilliant the solidity. You can see the pitch. It plays really well. | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
It is eight great legacy facility. It is exciting that have cole into | :18:06. | :18:11. | |
play after the Olympic Games. Hockey was held at the river bank `rena for | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
the Olympics. That was a telporary venue. The new permanent hole is the | :18:18. | :18:24. | |
lead value `` believe Vallex hockey centre. We may be on a diffdrent | :18:25. | :18:35. | |
part of what was the Olympic Park but big blue theme remains. There | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
will be plenty of international hockey played on it. Four | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
international tournaments and the next four years. The most | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
significant is next year 's Euro hockey for men and women and in 2018 | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
the hockey women's World Cup will be staged here in London. Tonight, | :18:54. | :19:00. | |
England's men play Scotland. This afternoon, England 's women took to | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
the pitch for the first timd. They come to be beat Wales in a latch | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
that became hockey 's equiv`lent of Brazil against Germany. There was | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
not just the scoreline may dnjoy but their new surroundings as wdll. It | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
is amazing. It brought me b`ck to the pics two years ago. It hs such a | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
fantastic venue. `` the Olylpics. We can host future tournaments here. | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
The picture looks fantastic with a Great Britain flag around it. It is | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
great to see so many people supporting. When the Commonwealth | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
Games begin in Glasgow, the English team might not get such a w`rm | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
reception. Now they can enjoy the new home comforts of their venue. | :19:42. | :19:46. | |

to the photograph of her, wd have included an image of her hotse in | :20:36. | :20:41. | |
Bloomsbury. She lived here between 1924 and 1939. In October 1840, she | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
came up from the country and found that it had been completely gutted, | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
completely bombed and destroyed Featuring paintings, photographs and | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
where archive material, vishtors are given an insight into the e`rly life | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
of Virginia Woolf, her soci`l and literary interests, have felinist | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
and political views and her fascination with London. For a | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
period, her husband and herself lived in Richmond, which was quite a | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
way from the centre of London and she became irritated by that. She | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
wanted to get into London properly. These letters written by Virginia | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
are on display. The first w`s to her husband and the second to hdr | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
sister, Vanessa. This is thd first time they have been on publhc | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
display in this way because of the sensitive nature of the content | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
This exhibition touches on Lariette `` many areas of her life and work. | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
I hope people will find this unexpected and present a different | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
story to what has been told before. Many people might walk into here | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
expecting to see familiar photographs, familiar painthngs | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
Some of the Bloomsbury group are here as are the familiar pahntings | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
and photographs. In among them are lots of surprises. This exhhbition | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
runs at the National Portraht Gallery until October. | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
Prince William is used to m`king something | :22:15. | :22:15. | |
And today, he did it quite literally, as he took over | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
at the helm of the British Sub`Aqua Club, following in the steps | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
The BBC's Royal correspondent, Peter Hunt, reports. | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
William, a prince who will one day in how it a kingdom, this morning | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
inherited a presidency, an underwater one. He is enterhng | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
waters once occupied by his grandfather and then his father the | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
royal head of the British stb Aqua club. Under guidance but an old | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
hand, William took to all of this at a young age. A love of the sea and | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
water is in the winter blood. It is rare for a royal to be indulging | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
their passion for this sport in a public summing pool. The hope is | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
that with a younger were now at the helm, a new generation will be | :23:05. | :23:07. | |
inspired to take on snorkelling and diving, including perhaps one day | :23:08. | :23:08. | |
Prince George. This is bread`and`butter roxal work, | :23:09. | :23:21. | |
supporting popular pursuits for a prince who is resisting doing it | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
full`time just yet and he m`y become, in the meantime, an air | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
ambulance pilot. This is thd hereditary principle in acthon. He | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
is handing on a tidal, not with a crown but with a plastic cl`p. | :23:38. | :23:48. | |
Despite encouragement, the future King has died down to historic | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
wrecks and under the Arctic ice Time for a look at the weather with | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
Philip Avery. Rather a lovely day out there. I | :23:58. | :24:11. | |
hope you had a chance to enjoy it. Increasingly cloudy. You have just | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
gone through the birthday of the week. There will be rain on. `` the | :24:15. | :24:22. | |
best day. That great strip of Cloud is what we will have to focts on | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
over the next day or so. In between it has been a glorious day puite | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
widely across the British Isles Let's zoom in and see how wd fare. A | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
lovely evening in prospect provided you get away from the wind. When I | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
came in it was still gusting up to around 30 miles an hour in | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
Gravesend. That will be ever present overnight. What will increase if the | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
cloud which will bring rain into the east. In the west you have ` few | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
more hours into the first p`rt of Thursday. It is not cold ovdrnight. | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
You will notice the yellow triangles. There are warnings | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
because there is the potenthal, and it is only that. There is the | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
potential, in amongst the frontal system, just to produce the odd | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
burst of really sharp rain. Where we had 23, 24 today, forget it. We will | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
lose, three to 5 degrees. That is the maximum temperature is to offer | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
you. That warning goes on through the course of the evening. @s the | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
front really comes into plax across the region there is the potdntial | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
for heavy downpours. The last of it still lingers on Friday. Wh`t you | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
will notice on Friday is th`t as things brighten up, we have the | :25:36. | :25:39. | |
chance once again on some rdally hefty showers kicking off across our | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
area. It is hit and miss but we have recovered those temperatures | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
somewhat. No more 17, 18 back to 20, 22. On Friday that looks a bit | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
pessimistic. Warm again but with the potential for heavy showers. All | :25:55. | :25:56. | |
change. 41 people have been killed, | :25:57. | :26:04. | |
including women and children, after Israel bombarded Gaza | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
