comfortable for whatever reasons in passing that information to us.

to the BBC News at One. Police investigating the Westminster

:01:29.:01:52.

attacks say they made two further significant arrests overnight

in the West Midlands They've appealed for information

day and launch a murderous attack in London. The questions for police are

:02:29.:02:32.

why and who helped? Most of the arrests so far have come as a result

:02:33.:02:37.

of the police operation in Birmingham where searches are

:02:38.:02:42.

understood to be continuing but this is a wide-ranging inquiry. Police

:02:43.:02:46.

were in Stratford in London gathering evidence from a flat

:02:47.:02:51.

linked to Masood. Hundreds of officers are now involved in this

:02:52.:02:53.

investigation and they've made more arrests. In our continuing

:02:54.:02:58.

investigation and ongoing covert activity we have made two further

:02:59.:03:01.

significant arrests overnight, one in the West Midlands, and one in the

:03:02.:03:08.

north-west. We now have nine people remaining in custody and one woman

:03:09.:03:13.

has been released on bail. Scotland Yard says the investigation at

:03:14.:03:17.

parliament and the search of 16 addresses around the country has led

:03:18.:03:22.

to 2700 items seized, the identification of 3500 witnesses and

:03:23.:03:27.

the processing of hundreds of video images uploaded to the police. We

:03:28.:03:31.

are appealing today is to the public to say, if, even in hindsight now

:03:32.:03:37.

you realise something about Khalid Masood, something about his

:03:38.:03:39.

soeshths, about his movements and planning now is the time to speak to

:03:40.:03:43.

our officers. This Brighton hotel was where Masood

:03:44.:03:47.

stayed the night before he set off for London. Detectives arrived here

:03:48.:03:52.

within hours of the attack and focussed on room 228 where he also

:03:53.:03:55.

stayed last Friday. They took with them the trouser press from the

:03:56.:03:59.

room, the kettle, and even the toilet roll holder, all of which

:04:00.:04:03.

could provide DNA or finger print evidence. It's really shocking at

:04:04.:04:06.

the moment... The staff can hardly believe the attacker was the same

:04:07.:04:10.

man they checked in. He was joking and smiling and friendly, he was

:04:11.:04:13.

very, very friendly person when he walked in. It really is, actually...

:04:14.:04:22.

It's a lovely guest, I liked him. Put comments in the system, you

:04:23.:04:26.

know, as a nice guest. The news has come as a shock to others at the

:04:27.:04:32.

hotel too. Nothing whatsoever made me think you got to be wary of this

:04:33.:04:40.

guy, nothing. And the guy was calm, there was no - there was nothing in

:04:41.:04:45.

his conduct or demeanour that would have let me get a feeling that

:04:46.:04:49.

something weird about this guy. And he is just on his way to commit mass

:04:50.:04:55.

murder. The inquiry's also taken police to west Wales where Khalid

:04:56.:05:01.

Masood's parents live. The police there spent the night searching this

:05:02.:05:04.

isolated property. They said later the occupants aren't being treated

:05:05.:05:08.

as suspects, and are receiving what they described as appropriate

:05:09.:05:12.

support. Local people were stunned to learn Khalid Masood had family

:05:13.:05:19.

here. I think it's not so much a shock as sympathy for the mother

:05:20.:05:24.

who's been estranged from her son as I understand for many years.

:05:25.:05:29.

Obviously she's come out to a tranquil location and, what she

:05:30.:05:32.

thought was, and everything sort of broken loose around her. On

:05:33.:05:36.

Westminster Bridge there are few signs of the carnage which changed

:05:37.:05:40.

so many lives on Wednesday but there are now double the usual number of

:05:41.:05:45.

armed officers on duty in London and this investigation is getting ever

:05:46.:05:48.

wider. Richard Lister, BBC News.

:05:49.:05:51.

Our home affairs correspondent Daniel Sandford is at Scotland Yard.

:05:52.:05:54.

Yes, it's a fast-moving investigation, what are the latest

:05:55.:06:02.

investments? Well, so far ten people have been arrested in this

:06:03.:06:05.

investigation. Eight of them were arrested on that first night, people

:06:06.:06:11.

known to be close associate of Khalid Masood and also his partner

:06:12.:06:16.

who was arrested in east London. My understanding is that one of those

:06:17.:06:21.

eight people, a woman, has been released. So that's seven people

:06:22.:06:27.

still in custody from then but overnight two arrests which the

:06:28.:06:31.

police described as significant arrests, one in West Midlands and

:06:32.:06:35.

one in the north-west, which I believe to be an address in west

:06:36.:06:40.

Didsbury in Manchester. That clearly changes the picture that the police

:06:41.:06:45.

are describing two arrests as significant arrests, because it's

:06:46.:06:48.

worth bearing in mind what they're looking for is anybody who might

:06:49.:06:52.

have not only known Khalid Masood but actually have known what he was

:06:53.:06:55.

planning, either by being aware of it or actually involved in the

:06:56.:07:00.

planning. That phrase significant arouses the suspicion that the

:07:01.:07:04.

police are starting to think there may have been more than one person

:07:05.:07:06.

aware of what was about to happen. Thank you.

:07:07.:07:09.

So what more do we know about Khalid Masood?

:07:10.:07:11.

He was born and raised in Britain, he had a string of convictions

:07:12.:07:15.

and recently had been living in Birmingham.

:07:16.:07:16.

He spent the night before the attack at a hotel in Brighton.

:07:17.:07:19.

A school photograph of the boy who later came to call himself Khalid

:07:20.:07:30.

Masood. One small detail of the person at the centre of what police

:07:31.:07:34.

call a fast-moving investigation. What is emerging is the life of a

:07:35.:07:38.

man who used many names, who moved around the country and had a long

:07:39.:07:44.

criminal past. He was born Adrian Russell Elms, the surname was his

:07:45.:07:48.

mother's maiden name. He also used the name of his stepfather, Ajao.

:07:49.:07:54.

His date of birth 1964, Christmas Day. He

:07:55.:08:02.

He gave his profession as a teacher when he hired a car. He never worked

:08:03.:08:12.

a a qualified teacher. His criminal record dates back to 1983. In 2,000

:08:13.:08:17.

he was jailed for two years after admitting attacking a man with a

:08:18.:08:20.

knife and in tweef he was convicted of possession of a knife. But he was

:08:21.:08:24.

never convicted of any terrorism offences and was not subject to any

:08:25.:08:28.

current investigations as the Prime Minister set out in parliament

:08:29.:08:32.

yesterday. What I can confirm is that the man was British-born, and

:08:33.:08:38.

that some years ago he was once investigated by MI5 in relation to

:08:39.:08:43.

concerns about violent extremism. He was a peripheral figure. As well as

:08:44.:08:48.

in Kent he lived in East Sussex, in 2016 he was living in east London

:08:49.:08:52.

under the name Masood. It's not clear when he changed it. His most

:08:53.:08:56.

recent address was in Birmingham. As more information comes to light,

:08:57.:08:59.

police hope this will help to establish connections he may have

:09:00.:09:02.

had and his motivation for the attack. And that it may prompt more

:09:03.:09:06.

members of the public to give them information that could prove key to

:09:07.:09:08.

their inquiry. Our security correspondent

:09:09.:09:11.

Frank Gardner is here. What's your assessment, what might

:09:12.:09:21.

there be in his past that could give an indication as to what he did?

:09:22.:09:28.

Very little in his early past. There are commonalities here in the life

:09:29.:09:31.

of this man Khalid Masood with a number of people who ended up being

:09:32.:09:39.

jihadist killers. So, for example, the 52-year-old British-born guy

:09:40.:09:43.

whoened up blowing himself up in Iraq, he spent time in Guantanamo

:09:44.:09:50.

Bay, blew himself up a few weeks ago near Mosu leshgs, now he when he

:09:51.:09:54.

came back from Guantanamo Bay was initially a person of mild suspicion

:09:55.:09:57.

but that was quickly dropped and he went quiet for years, there was

:09:58.:10:00.

nothing to indicate that he was going to do that. The man who

:10:01.:10:05.

carried out the Christmas market bombing, the Christmas market

:10:06.:10:09.

vehicle attack in Berlin before Christmas, he was - he went through

:10:10.:10:13.

the prison system in Italy and then ended up doing that. Prison is an

:10:14.:10:17.

incredibly radicalising thing. We don't know if that's where he was

:10:18.:10:23.

converted to radical Islam. I would be staggered if the police don't

:10:24.:10:28.

come up with some clues as to how this guy got radicalised. Someone

:10:29.:10:31.

talked him into this. He wouldn't have done this on his own. There is

:10:32.:10:35.

a shift between being a common criminal in trouble with the police,

:10:36.:10:39.

possession of assault weapon, to moving to something like this.

:10:40.:10:41.

Somebody persuaded him to do this. I think it's only a matter of time

:10:42.:10:46.

before they find that out. Where does this go next in terms of the

:10:47.:10:50.

investigation? Well, it's encouraging they've made arrests,

:10:51.:10:53.

particularly two which they say are of significance. Will they get them

:10:54.:10:58.

to talk? Not necessarily. You know, if they haven't been charged yet, it

:10:59.:11:02.

depends what they say. But a lot of it will depend on the forensic

:11:03.:11:07.

evidence they can get. Also the digital evidence, these days so much

:11:08.:11:12.

of prosecutions and things depend on the digital elements, the footprints

:11:13.:11:16.

people leave behind where police can say you can't argue with that, the

:11:17.:11:18.

evidence is there. Thank you. .

:11:19.:11:21.

A fourth victim who died last night after being knocked down

:11:22.:11:24.

in the Westminster attack has been named by police as 75-year-old

:11:25.:11:26.

Leslie Rhodes from Streatham, in South London.

:11:27.:11:29.

Two people remain in hospital in a critical condition.

:11:30.:11:31.

Two police officers hurt in the attack are also in hospital

the horror happened. Tributes for those who were injured and died in

the attack for PC Keith Palmer a football scarf from Charlton where

:11:55.:11:59.

he was a loyal supporter. This is believed to be the final photograph

:12:00.:12:03.

taken of the police officer. The American tourist with him had said

:12:04.:12:08.

she liked his hat and now wanted his family to have this image. One of

:12:09.:12:12.

the first people to help PC palm are after he was stabbed was Mike

:12:13.:12:16.

Crofts, seen here. He had been having a meeting in parliament.

:12:17.:12:20.

Today in an emotional interview he refused to accept he had acted as a

:12:21.:12:25.

hero. I wouldn't really accept the tag of hero. I think PC Palmer is a

:12:26.:12:33.

hero. The ten, 15 police officers who were treating him, such unity in

:12:34.:12:40.

that moment. All really working hard to try and save him. Then later the

:12:41.:12:47.

helicopter team arrived, just fantastic. Others who lost their

:12:48.:12:52.

lives were Aysha Frade, a wife and mother of two young daughters killed

:12:53.:12:56.

on the bridge along with American Kurt Cochran who came to London with

:12:57.:13:01.

his wife to celebrate 25 years of marriage. And the death toll rose

:13:02.:13:06.

again today as police announced a fourth victim had died. Whilst we

:13:07.:13:11.

await formal identification, we believe that he is Leslie Rhodes, a

:13:12.:13:15.

75-year-old from Streatham in south London. My thoughts are with his

:13:16.:13:20.

family at this time. Details of the 50 or so people injured in the

:13:21.:13:27.

attack are still sketchy, one much those stable is Romanian Andrea

:13:28.:13:32.

Cristea who fell into the Thames during the attack. The Romanian

:13:33.:13:37.

ambassador said it was a miracle she had survived. Tourists, they were

:13:38.:13:44.

coming to London to celebrate their birthday. He intended to ask her for

:13:45.:13:53.

marriage on the same day and this was unfortunately. This afternoon,

:13:54.:13:57.

Prince Charles arrived at kings hospital in south-east London, a

:13:58.:14:01.

major trauma centre, to meet some of the injured. A total of 20 people

:14:02.:14:06.

are being treated at a number of different locations of whom six are

:14:07.:14:10.

still believed to be critically ill. Sophie Hutchinson, BBC News.

The first picture emerges of the man who carried out the Westminster

:14:15.:14:22.

attack. Police say Khalid Masood used a number of aliases and they've

:14:23.:14:26.

appealed to the public for more information about him.

President Trump has issued an ultimatum on the health care

:15:19.:15:20.

He's demanded a vote in the US Congress later today --

:15:21.:15:26.

telling Republicans that if they don't opt to replace

:15:27.:15:28.

Barack Obama's health law he'll leave it in place.

:15:29.:15:33.

A vote planned for yesterday -- was delayed, following

:15:34.:15:35.

concerns that Mr Trump's legislation lacks support.

:15:36.:15:36.

After a frantic few days his message to Republicans, vote for change or

:15:37.:15:46.

This has forced the hand of the house speaker.

:15:47.:15:53.

For seven and a half years we have been promising the

:15:54.:15:56.

American people that we will repeal and replace this broken law because

:15:57.:16:00.

it's collapsing and it's failing families.

:16:01.:16:02.

But the votes are far from assured as different factions

:16:03.:16:07.

For some the health reforms go too far, for

:16:08.:16:23.

I'm still a no at this time, I'm desperately trying to get to yes

:16:24.:16:28.

and I think the President knows that.

:16:29.:16:30.

Outside the capital they gathered in fear and frustration.

:16:31.:16:32.

24 million Americans could lose their

:16:33.:16:36.

health insurance if the reforms go ahead.

:16:37.:17:18.

Because we know the medication is going to finish in 30 days, they

:17:19.:17:18.

only last me 30 days, every month we have to start saving

:17:19.:17:19.

more and more money, it could last us longer.

:17:20.:17:19.

Protesters circled the White House hoping the President would hear

:17:20.:17:20.

their cries, they worry about losing maternity and mental health care.

:17:21.:17:20.

But inside the gates he was surrounded

:17:21.:17:20.

by those who support his

:17:21.:17:23.

Is he going to get this through? They postponed the vote yesterday.

:17:24.:18:00.

They didn't have the numbers. They're going to have another go.

:18:01.:18:04.

The thinking is they may still be five or six votes short on their own

:18:05.:18:08.

side. The problem is, of course, that the republican party here in

:18:09.:18:12.

Congress is split. There are those on the right who don't think it goes

:18:13.:18:16.

far enough, the changes, to unpick what President Obama put in place.

:18:17.:18:21.

On what you might call the more liberal wing of the republican party

:18:22.:18:24.

who are concerned over 20 million people could lose health coverage if

:18:25.:18:29.

this goes through. So, he can't square that circle very easily,

:18:30.:18:33.

President Trump. He is saying now or never, time to decide. There is no

:18:34.:18:37.

plan B, according to the White House. So he is waiting for Congress

:18:38.:18:42.

to blink. We will see if they do. The difficulty for Congress, of

:18:43.:18:45.

course, is that President Trump doesn't have to face the voters for

:18:46.:18:49.

another four years, whereas republicans here have to face the

:18:50.:18:53.

voters every two years. In fact, every Congressman has to face the

:18:54.:18:56.

voters every two years. They've been saying for seven years we are going

:18:57.:19:01.

to repeal and replace Obamacare. If this fails, they have to go back to

:19:02.:19:04.

their district and say, you know what, we were saying we were going

:19:05.:19:06.

to do that for seven years, we didn't manage.

:19:07.:19:08.

Thank you. Every congressman has two face the

:19:09.:19:24.

voters every two years and they are saying we are going to replace and

:19:25.:19:31.

repeal the Obamacare. Thank you. The president of the European

:19:32.:19:37.

Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, says the EU will be "firm"

:19:38.:19:40.

during Brexit negotiations, but it Mr Juncker insisted though

:19:41.:19:41.

that the British Government would have to honour a financial

:19:42.:19:44.

commitment of about ?50 billion He was speaking to our Europe Editor

:19:45.:19:48.

Katya Adler, who's in Brussels. He said the EU would be firm but

:19:49.:20:06.

fair, but is this financial payment before deal you -- UK leads the EU

:20:07.:20:14.

still in contention? Not from his perspective, he almost spluttered

:20:15.:20:17.

when he said to me Britain cannot walk away from the EU, attending its

:20:18.:20:22.

never been a member. He said when it comes to the right of European

:20:23.:20:26.

citizens living in the UK or UK citizens living across the youth he

:20:27.:20:30.

was personally committed to protecting their rights, they could

:20:31.:20:34.

not be used as a bargaining chip and as for that exit bill he said it was

:20:35.:20:39.

not a punishment but again, he said the British government and the

:20:40.:20:42.

British Parliament had signed up to financial commitments and they would

:20:43.:20:45.

have to honour them, he said, before leaving.

:20:46.:20:47.

There will be no sanctions, no punishment, nothing of that kind but

:20:48.:20:49.

Britain has to know, I suppose, that the government

:20:50.:20:52.

does know it, they have to

:20:53.:20:53.

honour the commitments and the former commitments.

:20:54.:20:58.

That's not the main story, we have to calculate

:20:59.:21:05.

scientifically what the British commitments were and then the bill

:21:06.:21:07.

The President insisted to me over and over again during the interview

:21:08.:21:28.

how much he likes Britain and how much he regrets it is leaving the

:21:29.:21:32.

EU. He said in negotiations he brushed off any suggestions would be

:21:33.:21:37.

hostility here, he said the talks would be fair, friendly but he added

:21:38.:21:42.

he would never be naive. When he referred to the attacks in London

:21:43.:21:47.

this week he underlined the fact outside the EU Britain and the rest

:21:48.:21:51.

of the EU would have to cooperate closely, he meant that, but during

:21:52.:21:56.

those talks, the EU's top priority will be protecting the union, the

:21:57.:22:01.

single market, putting off any other EU member countries wanting to

:22:02.:22:04.

follow the British example to walk out the door, cause the President

:22:05.:22:08.

said to me, if they do that, the EU is finished. Thank you very much.

company for problems with landlines and broadband.

:22:16.:22:17.

The telecoms regulator OFCOM says providers should pay

:22:18.:22:19.

customers for slow repairs, delayed connections

:22:20.:22:20.

The plans could affect more than two and a half million customers

:22:21.:22:24.

who would receive up to ?185m in new compensation

:22:25.:22:26.

Our personal finance correspondent Simon Gompertz is here.

:22:27.:22:36.

It sounds like a lot of money, Simon? It is and if I take you

:22:37.:22:43.

through what you do get, first of all, if you have a loss of service

:22:44.:22:50.

on your telephone or Internet and it goes on for more than two days you

:22:51.:22:52.

will get ?10 per day after the two days. And if you signed on for a new

:22:53.:22:57.

service that supposed to start on a particular day and it wasn't, you

:22:58.:23:03.

will get ?6 a day for the delay. And if you've booked an engineer who is

:23:04.:23:10.

coming to help you out and they give you less than a day's notice that

:23:11.:23:16.

they can't make it, you will get ?30 compensation automatically, it's

:23:17.:23:18.

likely to come off your bill, you can opt for it to be sent to you by

:23:19.:23:23.

cheque. All of this in recognition of the fact that it's not just

:23:24.:23:28.

inconvenient, it costs them money if they can't work, if they'd stayed on

:23:29.:23:32.

for an engineer or if they rely on the Internet for their work and you

:23:33.:23:37.

can get compensation at the moment, most people don't apply, with

:23:38.:23:41.

engineers not turning up it's only about 14% to apply for what they're

:23:42.:23:51.

entitled to their will be questions over what counts. People complain

:23:52.:23:56.

that their broadband Internet is slow or intermittent over a period

:23:57.:23:57.

of time, you won't get automatic compensation, there will be and

:23:58.:23:58.

there has to be a full loss of service and again, what about

:23:59.:24:02.

disputes over the engineer turning up? They will start taking

:24:03.:24:07.

photographs when they come to your house and you are not there, even

:24:08.:24:09.

showing themselves at your house with a date stamp to say we turned

:24:10.:24:14.

up, there will be that sort of dispute. This is a consultation, it

:24:15.:24:17.

will be some months before it actually starts. Simon, thank you.

British scientists say they have made a major

:24:24.:24:25.

breakthrough in the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis.

:24:26.:24:27.

Using Genome Sequencing they are able to isolate different

strains of TB much more quickly, which means patients

The simplest of tasks can seem challenging when life

as you know it changes with the smallest of breaths.

I must have breathed in at the wrong time,

People couldn't do the things they wanted to do because I was there, I

felt like a burden on my family so I contemplated ending my life and my

something to be able to do, rather than setting and resting. It gave me

seeing my kids afterwards and how proud they were, I will never forget

wouldn't be able to have an active part in my kids lives in a more and

to compete in the 2022 Winter games, Bobsleigh will make its Paralympic

debut. This is the thing that motivates me, gets me up in the

you have been through in the past, will never do find you as a person.

around today, even in the south it is quite cloudy. But let's enjoy

:30:50.:30:54.

this shot, ample sunshine, some areas in the South West at the

:30:55.:30:58.

moment, it is quite great, the remnants of a weather front and some

:30:59.:31:02.

rain, but I'm glad to say the ring is petering out here. Some rain

:31:03.:31:08.

across the far north of Scotland, there is the sunshine, increasing

amounts for parts of the Midlands and Wales. It will feel a little

warmer for most, more sunshine, still a chilly breeze blowing

feature for much of the weekend, when we say for most it will be dry,

the exception is the far north of Scotland. In the South, you can see

high pressure at this time of year benefits with lovely sunshine coming

through. Still a keen breeze, probably likely to pick up across

clocks forward an hour as we head into Wuthering Sunday, it means

sunshine later in the day. This is a snapshot, from north to south, the

clocks going forward, we could see some sunshine to enjoy on Sunday,

likely to be a little bit more cloud than Saturday, still cloud plaguing
