:00:16. > :00:17.Good evening and welcome to the BBC London weekend news,

:00:18. > :00:38.Alice Gross was last seen a month ago today walking along a towpath in

:00:39. > :00:45.Hanwell. Scotland Yard confirmed the RAF were helping aerial analysis to

:00:46. > :00:49.identify areas worth search The Ealing half marathon is an annual

:00:50. > :00:56.event but for most competitors this year was special. So 6,000 runners

:00:57. > :01:02.are beginning their 13.1 mile race over the streets of Ealing. The

:01:03. > :01:07.faster runners setting off. All of them adding momentum to the campaign

:01:08. > :01:11.to find Alice Gross. That momentum added to by the fact that so many

:01:12. > :01:15.are wearing this yellow ribbon, which has become a symbol for the

:01:16. > :01:20.search for Alice. Competitors in the half marathon said the ribbons had

:01:21. > :01:24.spread to much of London. I cycled to Hammersmith to get the tube to

:01:25. > :01:28.south Ealing and you saw them at every bus stop and they became more

:01:29. > :01:32.prevalent, so the campaign has spread much further than Ealing The

:01:33. > :01:37.route included a stretch by the refer Brent, intensively searched by

:01:38. > :01:41.the police, and streets neighbouring Alice's home in Hanwell. Many

:01:42. > :01:45.runners know the path by the river and Grand Union Canal taken by Alice

:01:46. > :01:50.on the day she disappeared as beautiful but lonely. Because I ve

:01:51. > :01:55.gone out early mornings I am a bit wary sometimes, because you don t

:01:56. > :01:59.see anyone around. The senior officer heading the search for Alice

:02:00. > :02:03.says he has never witnessed a community respond to strongly in 30

:02:04. > :02:08.years of policing. It was a response on show today. Not a single runner

:02:09. > :02:12.has refused to wear a ribbon. Everybody has been so willing to

:02:13. > :02:16.take it on board and said thank you for the ribbon and yes they'll do

:02:17. > :02:19.whatever they can to continue showing awareness that she's still

:02:20. > :02:24.missing and to show support for the family. The police say the search

:02:25. > :02:29.continues to wide within. One month after Alice disappeared, they say

:02:30. > :02:37.they will need the public's help to find her.

:02:38. > :02:43.The question of Londoners being able to afford homes here and how many

:02:44. > :02:46.tax the rich and superrich should pay is one of the biggest questions

:02:47. > :02:53.for the political parties ahead of next year's general election. London

:02:54. > :02:57.is said to be home to more billionaires than any other city.

:02:58. > :03:04.Offering say some unrivalled attractions. It is the London

:03:05. > :03:09.markets the chance to make investments probably more easily

:03:10. > :03:18.than in France or Germany. There's a lot of overseas billionaires that

:03:19. > :03:22.are buying into iconic London. Together says it is not just a few

:03:23. > :03:27.wealthy people who create the wealth of our country. It is every working

:03:28. > :03:32.person. This week Labour confirmed they would levy a mansion tax on

:03:33. > :03:36.properties over ?2 million. Details of how and with what conditions

:03:37. > :03:41.still to be confirmed. But it means a relatively small area of the

:03:42. > :03:45.capital will be helping to subsidise the health service across they. 86%

:03:46. > :03:49.of the properties that will be hit by this tax are in London and the

:03:50. > :03:55.South East, the vast majority in central London. The Conservatives

:03:56. > :03:59.have said they will make foreigners selling property liable for capital

:04:00. > :04:04.gains tax, but a new study looking at the escalating wealth of the

:04:05. > :04:09.country's top 1% shows they may still be too close to the rich. If

:04:10. > :04:14.you look at the last four years most people's standard of living has

:04:15. > :04:24.fallen. 99% of people have become more equal. The only people whose

:04:25. > :04:28.income tax have risen is the 1% We'll see this week whether the

:04:29. > :04:37.Chancellor, George Osborne, intends to do more to capture some of the

:04:38. > :04:52.wealth of superrich. The spectacular sight of HMS

:04:53. > :05:06.London verse been given the chance to go on board the frigate and

:05:07. > :05:13.on the way tomorrow. Fog is developing through the early hours

:05:14. > :05:19.of the morning. Dense patches within that as well. There is the potential

:05:20. > :05:24.it could be problematic for road and air travel. In the morning it will

:05:25. > :05:27.take a while to clear. There is cloud around anyway, with showery

:05:28. > :05:33.rain pushing north up from the Continent. That will be fairly heavy

:05:34. > :05:38.as well. Today we've had temperatures above 24 Celsius.

:05:39. > :05:43.Tomorrow they drop significantly. Highs of 18-20 Celsius at best. A

:05:44. > :05:46.different day tomorrow. Some of that showery rain hanging around on

:05:47. > :05:50.Tuesday morning but clearing later in the day.

:05:51. > :06:05.I'll be back just after 10.20pm Have a lovely evening. Goodbye.

:06:06. > :06:13.Good evening. For many, September 2014 will probably hold fond

:06:14. > :06:19.memories. A warm and dry month. Today we had a high of 25 Celsius,

:06:20. > :06:26.77 Fahrenheit in Kew Gardens to the west of London, way above the

:06:27. > :06:29.average for this time of year. Through the night tonight relatively

:06:30. > :06:33.quiet conditions, with clearer skies in the south. I want to draw your

:06:34. > :06:40.attention to these showers in southern Spain and across the

:06:41. > :06:45.Pyrenees. Moist air may trigger showers over channel coasts by dawn.

:06:46. > :06:46.We could have an issue
