:01:35. > :01:41.This is the gunman that has sent shock waves across the country. He
:01:42. > :01:47.is still at large, but now his motives could be clearer. The
:01:48. > :01:51.so-called Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack. In a
:01:52. > :01:56.statement, they said the shooting was carried out by a soldier in
:01:57. > :02:02.revenge for the Turkish's Governments strikes on Islamic State
:02:03. > :02:09.in Syria. Eight people have been detained, but the gunman is not

:02:17. > :02:25.today. 29 of the victims are Farne national -- foreign nationals. A
:02:26. > :02:35.29-year-old actor from Lebanon was among those shot. We heard
:02:36. > :02:44.something... Like a gun. Shooting. After three or four seconds, we

:03:06. > :03:11.the most popular nightclubs in Istanbul. Now it is forever to be
:03:12. > :03:18.haunted. The gunman came by the doors and shot two people before

:04:14. > :04:21.Oldham on new year's eve with her cousin. That was Helina Kotlarova,
:04:22. > :04:26.she was 12. She died shortly after from her injuries. Her cousin has
:04:27. > :04:33.been in a critical condition in hospital since. There are tributes
:04:34. > :04:38.here in memory of the two girls. As for the investigation, initially,
:04:39. > :04:42.they were look fog for a VW Golf. Now they have said they believe the
:04:43. > :04:51.girls had been struck by a different car and that is a Peugeot 807. That
:04:52. > :04:56.was found abandoned and the police have recovered the vehicle and are

:05:22. > :05:37.the hike, as our Business If you have to pay out thousands for
:05:38. > :05:42.a season ticket, your new year has not started well. With the exception
:05:43. > :05:51.of Northern Ireland, the average ticket will be 2.3% more expensive.
:05:52. > :05:55.Season tickets go up by 1.9%. Still considerably more than inflation.
:05:56. > :06:02.Even allowing for inflation, fares have risen by a quarter over the
:06:03. > :06:05.last 22 years. It is a disgrace, particularly as the Reims respect
:06:06. > :06:12.efficient. In terms of increase, that is fair. It has to be paid. If
:06:13. > :06:21.that includes paying for our wages and people earn more. The rises will
:06:22. > :06:25.sting commuters, who have had to put up with strikes and punctuality
:06:26. > :06:29.problems and insufficient seating and the impact of the weather. There
:06:30. > :06:39.is a lot happening. Billions are being spent. Nobody wants to see a
:06:40. > :06:45.fare increase, but costs rise and pay rises. There is a huge amount
:06:46. > :06:51.coming in from the passenger, about ?9 billion that year. That should
:06:52. > :06:56.buy improvements without price rises. There should be more
:06:57. > :07:05.efficiencies. The investment is great, but do the prices have to go
:07:06. > :07:08.up every year? The wider public may welcome the increases, because
:07:09. > :07:14.taxpayers are shouldering less of the cost of running the railways
:07:15. > :07:19.than they were. It means that commuters are shouldering more. And
:07:20. > :07:23.campaigners are calling for a total freeze in rail fares. Which they say
:07:24. > :07:28.has become disconnected from the service that they get.
:07:29. > :07:30.The Government's given the go-ahead to the first

:07:35. > :07:37.Our Correspondent Daniela Relph is in Longcross in Surrey,
:07:38. > :07:52.What are garden villages and how will the scheme work? Well, in the
:07:53. > :08:04.next couple of years this area in Surrey will be transformed into one
:08:05. > :08:08.of these 14 garden villages. A guarden garden village would have
:08:09. > :08:14.new homes and improved transport links. The locations announced today
:08:15. > :08:20.are across England from Cumbria to Derbyshire and Stratford on Avon.
:08:21. > :08:24.And down into Devon and Cornwall. The idea is they would create
:08:25. > :08:29.distinct communities. So they would not just be extensions of what
:08:30. > :08:32.already exists. And they would have access to around ?6 million of
:08:33. > :08:37.Government money over the next two years. The Labour Party and some of
:08:38. > :08:41.those who have looked at the housing problems are wary of getting too
:08:42. > :08:45.excited about this project. They say if delivered it will provide new
:08:46. > :08:55.housing, but it isn't enough. Thank you.

:09:31. > :09:33.allies has suggested the Labour leader could step down
:09:34. > :09:35.if the party's fortunes don't Len McCluskey said Mr Corbyn should
:09:36. > :09:39.be given time to prove himself, but that he wouldn't try to 'cling

:09:43. > :09:52.Chris Mason joins me. These are surprising comments from
:09:53. > :09:56.Len McCluskey. Yes he is a towering figure in the Labour movement and an
:09:57. > :10:00.early advocate of Jeremy Corbyn running to be Labour leader and
:10:01. > :10:05.staying on as leader. So yes, they are surprising. One of his biggest
:10:06. > :10:10.supporters is saying Jeremy Corbyn might have a sell by date and he
:10:11. > :10:14.told the daily mirror in the opinion polls are still off in 2019,
:10:15. > :10:19.everybody would examine that situation, including Jeremy Corbyn.
:10:20. > :10:25.He said Jeremy Corbyn was not an ego maniac that would cling to power for
:10:26. > :10:30.power's sake. There is an important context here. There is a leadership
:10:31. > :10:40.race within the Unite union and the big critic and opponent that Mr
:10:41. > :10:45.McCluskey faces, Gerard Coin said Mr McCluskey is obsessed with
:10:46. > :10:53.Westminster. Mr Coin said he is astonished at this ultimatum and
:10:54. > :10:58.said Mr McCluskey seems to be Labour's puppet master. Thank you.
