:06:52. > :06:55.is still a massive forensic crime scene operation going on where you
:06:56. > :06:59.are, still an awful lot of forensic work going on in Borough Market,
:07:00. > :07:03.Borough High Street and bits of London Bridge. That's incredibly
:07:04. > :07:08.important, because if this case ever comes to trial or for inquest, the
:07:09. > :07:13.counterterrorism officers need to know exactly what happened and
:07:14. > :07:18.where. They are starting to acquire a huge amount of CCTV material,
:07:19. > :07:22.videos sent from members of the public who witnessed things. They
:07:23. > :07:25.are starting to go through computers and mobile phones seized during the
:07:26. > :07:31.course of the operation. That's a big part of the work. Although there
:07:32. > :07:35.were two new raids overnight, there were no formal arrests made on those
:07:36. > :07:39.rates. People were detained and spoken to, but at this rate nobody
:07:40. > :07:44.has been formally arrested. The number of people arrested remains at
:07:45. > :07:49.12, one of them being released very soon, seven women and four men still
:07:50. > :07:53.in custody. That's an important part of the investigation. Did anyone
:07:54. > :07:58.else know what was going to happen, was anyone else involved in
:07:59. > :08:02.assisting what was going to happen? The element spoken about by Cressida
:08:03. > :08:07.Dick, the commissioner, was it being guided in some way from overseas?
:08:08. > :08:11.There is a working assumption at the moment that wasn't necessarily the
:08:12. > :08:16.case. The ideology might have come from overseas, but it doesn't seem
:08:17. > :08:19.at this stage to be a guiding hand. There is a reassurance element to
:08:20. > :08:24.the investigation, overnight sprouting new barriers on three of
:08:25. > :08:28.the main London Bridges, a barrier between the roadway and the
:08:29. > :08:35.pavement, so any vehicle that chose to drive off the roadway into crowds
:08:36. > :08:37.of people on the pavement would bump into those barriers, a form of

:09:29. > :09:33.Saturday night she died in Tyler's arms. They had been walking over
:09:34. > :09:38.London Bridge as the attack began. The van hit 30-year-old Christine.
:09:39. > :09:41.Her boyfriend's family say he tried desperately to keep her alive and
:09:42. > :09:46.paramedics were on the scene very quickly, but there was nothing they
:09:47. > :09:49.could do to save her. In a statement her family said she wouldn't have
:09:50. > :09:50.understood the callous cruelty of her death. They also made this
:09:51. > :10:08.plea... Christine Archibald had worked at a
:10:09. > :10:12.homeless shelter back in Canada. She had studied social work at
:10:13. > :10:17.university in Calgary, where she was remembered as a shy and talented
:10:18. > :10:22.student. The area of social work she chose to work in is one of the most
:10:23. > :10:25.challenging areas and required substantial commitment, substantial
:10:26. > :10:30.compassion, and she was able to do that really successfully. She would
:10:31. > :10:36.be somebody we would be proud to have called a social work colleague.

:10:49. > :10:55.scared, yeah, really, really scared. We eventually got onto the hospital.
:10:56. > :11:03.They spoke to me and said she had gone to surgery. She had a knife

:11:16. > :11:18.and surgical teams, who are doing an excellent job. A number of patients
:11:19. > :11:22.remained in critical care, where they receive good treatment, and I
:11:23. > :11:27.expect them to remain there for a knob of days or weeks to come. In

:11:49. > :11:52.them, medical staff have been speaking about them in the last
:11:53. > :12:01.hour. What have they had to say? NHS England has put out an update on the
:12:02. > :12:04.number of patients. There are still 36 patients at five London hospitals
:12:05. > :12:10.following the attacks on Saturday night. But the number in critical
:12:11. > :12:15.care is now 18. It was 21 as of last night. Some of those are at Kings
:12:16. > :12:21.College Hospital, a major trauma centre in south London. We just
:12:22. > :12:24.heard from Doctor Malcolm Tunnicliff in the hospital, paying tribute to
:12:25. > :12:28.the work of staff and making it clear that some of those critically
:12:29. > :12:34.ill patients will be in hospital for a little time to come. He said that
:12:35. > :12:39.on the night a major incident plan had been put into action, and within
:12:40. > :12:42.an hour or so, a large number of doctors and nursing staff had been
:12:43. > :12:49.called in. They had planned for just this sort of thing, and were dealing
:12:50. > :12:52.with a series of knife wounds and also injuries consistent with people
:12:53. > :12:56.being hit on the bridge. That was the sort of thing he said hospitals
:12:57. > :13:00.like this have to deal with fairly regularly, although not quite on
:13:01. > :13:07.this scale. He said the plan had been put into practice in a way they
:13:08. > :13:15.were pleased with. It's also worth saying that it's not just the trauma
:13:16. > :13:18.staff, on the night there are a series of different hospital
:13:19. > :13:21.professions involved watching out for ongoing infections among the
:13:22. > :13:26.victims as a result of the attacks. Tribute also paid to hospital
:13:27. > :13:31.chaplains, occupational therapists and other staff, all of whom very
:13:32. > :13:34.much involved in treating patients. Health editor Hugh Pym, thank you.

:13:58. > :14:04.What happened in London on Saturday night has, for the second time in
:14:05. > :14:08.this campaign, refocused the election on national security. The
:14:09. > :14:14.question is blunt, which leader do you think is the best chance of
:14:15. > :14:18.keeping us safe? When she launched a campaign for the Conservative
:14:19. > :14:23.leadership last summer, Theresa May set out what she sees as the
:14:24. > :14:26.differences between her and Labour's Jeremy Corbyn, from terrorism to
:14:27. > :14:32.nuclear weapons. In this election there is one leader who has made it
:14:33. > :14:37.his life's ambition to get rid of Trident, and one who is committed to
:14:38. > :14:40.keeping it. One leader who has boasted about opposing every single
:14:41. > :14:45.counter terror law, and one who has been responsible for passing them.
:14:46. > :14:49.One leader who has opposed the use of shoot to kill and given cover to
:14:50. > :14:53.the IRA when they bombed and shot our citizens, and who now in the
:14:54. > :14:58.midst of an election campaign wants to do all he can to hide or deny
:14:59. > :15:03.those views. But security issues have been Theresa May's
:15:04. > :15:07.responsibility since 2010 when she became Home Secretary. Since then
:15:08. > :15:13.the number of conventional police officers and those who are armed has
:15:14. > :15:17.fallen. Jeremy Corbyn can frequently draw a crowd. He was in
:15:18. > :15:21.Middlesbrough this morning and said it was vital that campaigning
:15:22. > :15:25.continued. We're not going to allow anybody to dictate how we live our
:15:26. > :15:34.lives or how we go about enjoying ourselves. And for those people that
:15:35. > :15:38.imagine somehow or other, these kind of terrorist attacks will deter us
:15:39. > :15:42.from exercising our democratic right to have our election to decide who
:15:43. > :15:48.our government is going to be. Wrong. We carry on. Democracy will
:15:49. > :15:52.prevail. Jeremy Corbyn went on to say he wants Theresa May to resign
:15:53. > :15:56.over her handling of security issues, but of course he does, he
:15:57. > :16:00.wants to be Prime Minister on Friday, take her job and form a
:16:01. > :16:04.government here. What was more surprising was David Cameron's
:16:05. > :16:10.former aide Steve Hilton suggesting the same thing for the same reasons.
:16:11. > :16:13.But Theresa May remains defiant and says, for instance, extra money is
:16:14. > :16:18.being put in to recruit additional armed police. But both the SNP and
:16:19. > :16:23.the Liberal Democrats are questioning her record. This is a
:16:24. > :16:28.point where we look at how we keep our country, our people safe. As
:16:29. > :16:33.things stand we have a Prime Minister who told off the police for
:16:34. > :16:37.saying they were crying wolf, and that was at a time where she was
:16:38. > :16:41.responsible for making cuts in our police numbers in every part of our
:16:42. > :16:46.country, and today she stands and says enough is enough. Enough was
:16:47. > :16:49.enough the first time this happened. This is the moment where we stand
:16:50. > :16:53.behind our police and security services and do the one thing we
:16:54. > :16:58.know will make us safer and invest in police. An election that was
:16:59. > :17:02.called because of Brexit feels very different several weeks later. Of
:17:03. > :17:06.course Brexit will be a massive issue for the next government, but
:17:07. > :17:12.so will national security. Chris Mason, BBC News.

:17:17. > :17:24.With so few days left until the general election, national security
:17:25. > :17:28.very much taking centre stage now. It is also clear Mrs May wants to
:17:29. > :17:31.put the issue of security and leadership, keeping the nation safe
:17:32. > :17:35.at the heart of her campaign, and really went after Jeremy Corbyn
:17:36. > :17:40.today saying he opposed shoot to kill. He voted against every piece
:17:41. > :17:46.of counterterrorism legislation citing his ties to Sinn Fein, IRA
:17:47. > :17:51.and Hamas. But in a funny sort of way, it was Mrs May who has come

:24:31. > :24:37.the peaceful island where she lived has been in shock at her death. The
:24:38. > :24:42.local school closed, businesses shut as hundreds of islanders filled the
:24:43. > :24:51.church and lined the streets for her funeral. Her family wanted this to
:24:52. > :24:55.be a celebration of Eilidh 's life. Kind and cheerful who loved music,

:26:03. > :26:08.Our Diplomatic Correspondent James Landale joins me now.
:26:09. > :26:15.What's this all about? This is one of those simmering tensions that has
:26:16. > :26:18.suddenly exploded into one of the most serious diplomatic breakdowns
:26:19. > :26:22.in the Gulf countries for many years. The Gulf countries led by
:26:23. > :26:28.Saudi Arabia and others, they believe and accuse Qatar of
:26:29. > :26:33.supporting Islamist groups including Muslim Brotherhood, and also of
:26:34. > :26:38.being supportive of Iran's agenda. Iran is the great enemy for many of
:26:39. > :26:42.these countries. What has happened is that just a week or so on since
:26:43. > :26:45.the Donald Trump visit to the region, these countries have felt
:26:46. > :26:51.emboldened to say now is the moment to try to crack down on Qatar and
:26:52. > :26:57.say we will not put up with this any further. They have cut off transport
:26:58. > :27:01.ties and planes are not flying in. This matters because Qatar is a
:27:02. > :27:05.small country, a very wealthy one full of oil and liquid natural gas.
:27:06. > :27:10.Any disruption could potentially have an impact on the oil price.

:27:18. > :27:21.10,000 troops runs a lot of counter so-called Islamic State operations
:27:22. > :27:26.there, will that be destabilised? Also Qatar was a huge investor here,
:27:27. > :27:31.it owns big shard tower building, the Harrods department store and
:27:32. > :27:35.companies like Sainsbury's. Any impact could have potential blowback
:27:36. > :27:38.here in the UK. Last night 50,000 people gathered
:27:39. > :27:40.in Manchester for a benefit concert for the victims
:27:41. > :27:42.of the suicide bomb at Manchester Arena last month that
:27:43. > :27:45.left 22 people dead. It was an evening of defiance,
:27:46. > :27:47.celebration, and unity - all the more so given the events
:27:48. > :27:50.here in London just 24 hours before. But it brought back
:27:51. > :27:52.difficult memories for some. Graham Satchell spent the day
:27:53. > :27:55.with a mother and daughter who were at Manchester Arena
:27:56. > :27:58.when the bomb went off. Not quite two weeks after the attack
:27:59. > :28:01.in Manchester, and not quite 24 hours after the latest
:28:02. > :28:05.outrage in London, 50,000 people came to
:28:06. > :28:06.a concert, determined
:28:07. > :28:13.to enjoy themselves. Manchester stands together
:28:14. > :28:16.and I think you can see For 13-year-old Lucy and her mum,
:28:17. > :28:24.Anne-Marie, it's not that simple. This is is a fantastic gesture,
:28:25. > :28:26.that this concert's taking place, Lucy's been having panic
:28:27. > :28:30.attacks through the night. What have the last
:28:31. > :28:38.two weeks been like? Lucy and Anne-Marie were at
:28:39. > :28:43.the Manchester Arena two weeks ago. I just don't understand
:28:44. > :28:49.why they would... Just getting to last night's concert
:28:50. > :28:57.after witnessing the horrors of the suicide bomber,
:28:58. > :29:13.an extraordinary achievement. return to Manchester
:29:14. > :29:16.for Ariana Grande - compassion, dignity,
:29:17. > :29:18.courage at just 23. With her, stars from all over
:29:19. > :29:21.the world like Justin Bieber, CROWD: LOVE!
:29:22. > :29:30.LOVE! There were heart-warming moments,
:29:31. > :29:31.heart-breaking moments. It was a night that saw
:29:32. > :29:37.the very best of Manchester. Lucy and Anne-Marie,
:29:38. > :29:41.hugely appreciative. They were all brilliant,
:29:42. > :29:42.absolutely brilliant, But for us, you know, it's not
:29:43. > :29:55.going to take away that memory. I'm really pleased you have got
:29:56. > :30:04.a smile on your face. It's a smal first step,
:30:05. > :30:10.but an important one - a moment of normality in what has
:30:11. > :30:14.been a deeply traumatic time. Graham Satchell, BBC
:30:15. > :30:20.News, Manchester. Let's go back to our top story,
:30:21. > :30:23.the terror attack on Saturday night on London Bridge and Borough Market
:30:24. > :30:40.in which seven people were killed As you can see behind me, there is a
:30:41. > :30:49.huge cordon here, the whole area is closed off. London Bridge State --
:30:50. > :30:53.station is open, and the cathedral has been closed, sealed off to the
:30:54. > :30:57.public for now. I'm joined by the Bishop of Southwark, good afternoon
:30:58. > :31:02.and thank you for joining us. Can you remember a time when the
:31:03. > :31:07.cathedral was closed like this? There is no precedent because we are
:31:08. > :31:12.dealing with exceptional events. We had a great service full of young
:31:13. > :31:17.people who were all home by the time the incident happened, many others
:31:18. > :31:21.were enjoying the vicinity, out and about in it. Yesterday we closed the
:31:22. > :31:26.cathedral because it is within the sealed area. In the evening, the
:31:27. > :31:31.large Pentecost service where people were coming from all over south
:31:32. > :31:39.London, we managed to relocate to a church in Kennington. This morning
:31:40. > :31:44.you have been to a meeting with the Metropolitan Police and other faith
:31:45. > :31:49.leaders, what was the message? I was at new Scotland Yard for a meeting
:31:50. > :31:53.of the consultative group of faith leaders, being briefed by the
:31:54. > :31:58.police. This area is likely to be sealed off, possibly for another
:31:59. > :32:03.24-36 hours while the police go about their work and they have been
:32:04. > :32:07.working both very effectively the forensic teams, and also very well
:32:08. > :32:10.in dealing with the public and giving reassurance, taking time to
:32:11. > :32:15.talk to people. We were also concerned that when we speak, we
:32:16. > :32:20.speak with one united voice across the great faiths which are
:32:21. > :32:25.represented in this global city in which we live. We want to celebrate
:32:26. > :32:30.our diversity, regarded as a blessing, and to speak out against
:32:31. > :32:36.those who are to undermine unity, goodwill and common purpose. The
:32:37. > :32:37.Bishop of Southwark, thank you for joining us.
:32:38. > :32:42.Time for a look at the weather. Here's Louise Lear.
:32:43. > :32:48.Sunshine for some today but vain for most and that's the story with this
:32:49. > :32:52.rain we can see from the weather watcher picture in Cumbria, but it's
:32:53. > :32:55.moving from the west and if you've had some sunshine it will be a thing
:32:56. > :33:00.of the past as we go through the afternoon. The wet and windy
:33:01. > :33:05.weather, the worst of which across Wales and north-west England. It
:33:06. > :33:09.will be this intense rainfall that is the real issue and worth bearing
:33:10. > :33:14.in mind if you are going to be out on the roads this afternoon. Some of
:33:15. > :33:20.that rain persistent, accompanied by gale force winds. So, as we go
:33:21. > :33:24.through this afternoon the strongest of the winds gusting to gale force
:33:25. > :33:28.on exposed coasts in the south-west, the rain gradually drifting steadily
:33:29. > :33:32.eastwards but there will be some heavy bursts across the south-west.
:33:33. > :33:37.Dribs and drabs into London during the afternoon but we will seek heavy
:33:38. > :33:41.persistent rain as we go through this evening. The rain lingering
:33:42. > :33:44.across the north-west of England and north Wales, but for Northern
:33:45. > :33:49.Ireland and Scotland scattered showers into the afternoon. Cannot
:33:50. > :33:53.rule out the odd rumble of thunder, but temperatures peaking at around
:33:54. > :33:56.16 degrees. Through this evening and overnight it will be the wet and
:33:57. > :34:02.windy weather that will be the theme as it continues to push steadily
:34:03. > :34:06.north and east, so it will be a real wet and windy night for many, with
:34:07. > :34:11.gales on exposed coasts and overnight lows generally of around
:34:12. > :34:15.9-13d. We start off tomorrow morning with the area of low pressure
:34:16. > :34:19.centred through the spine of the country and drifting steadily north
:34:20. > :34:23.and east. The isobars squeezing together, the strongest of the winds
:34:24. > :34:27.to the south-west of that bloke and that's where we are likely to
:34:28. > :34:31.continue to see gale force gusts for a time. The rain slowly clears away
:34:32. > :34:35.through central and eastern England but perhaps lingers for much of the
:34:36. > :34:40.far north-east of Scotland for most of the day. Following behind, sunny
:34:41. > :34:44.spells and scattered showers, a breezy day and it will feel cooler
:34:45. > :34:49.than it has of late. The low pressure finally eases away during
:34:50. > :34:55.Wednesday night, the wind swings round to a westerly direction, and
:34:56. > :35:00.it looks to be largely fine and dry. But on exposed north west coasts, it
:35:01. > :35:12.will feel quite fresh, 11-14d. Highest values in the south-east
:35:13. > :35:15.with 20. Back to you, Sophie. Police say they know the identities of the
:35:16. > :35:16.three men who killed seven people and left many more critically
:35:17. > :35:18.injured. That's all from the BBC News at One
:35:19. > :35:21.so it's goodbye from me, and on BBC One we now join the BBC's
:35:22. > :35:22.news teams where you are.
