:02:00. > :02:03.Leeds as pupils, past and present, paid tribute to 61-year-old Ann
:02:04. > :02:07.Maguire. The much-loved teacher had worked at the school for 40 years,
:02:08. > :02:13.and was planning to retire in the autumn. Our correspondent, Ed
:02:14. > :02:18.Thomas, is there for us now. Ed. Sophie, it seems like with every
:02:19. > :02:25.passing moment for flowers and messages arrive for Ann Maguire. We
:02:26. > :02:31.heard more about the 15-year-old boy arrested. He is being questioned by
:02:32. > :02:35.he detectives. Two police officers stand guard outside his home. At
:02:36. > :02:39.Corpus Christi we heard the sound of children playing today. The school

:02:54. > :03:00.Remembered with prayer. This morning, pupils, past and present,
:03:01. > :03:10.came here for Ann Maguire. Today we pray for the light of hope. Hope for
:03:11. > :03:14.ourselves, that we will come to terms eventually with what has
:03:15. > :03:18.happened. Hope, because today the school opened. Watched over by
:03:19. > :03:24.police, children returned. This was their tribute to the 61-year-old. To
:03:25. > :03:27.carry on, in the name of Mrs Maguire. For the first time the head
:03:28. > :03:33.teacher at Corpus Christi has spoken about his colleague. We couldn't
:03:34. > :03:38.have foreseen the circumstances that transpired yesterday. Ann Maguire
:03:39. > :03:43.was a wonderful, caring individual. She was an outstanding teacher. She
:03:44. > :03:47.was an outstanding leader. She had been a cornerstone of the school
:03:48. > :03:51.community for 40 years. As the flowers and messages arrived, we
:03:52. > :03:56.learnt more about Ann Maguire. After four decades teaching, she was due
:03:57. > :04:00.to retire this summer. We also heard more about the police investigation.
:04:01. > :04:06.This update wasn't just for the media, it was watched by friends and
:04:07. > :04:10.former pupils. All told a child is in custody, one of their own. This
:04:11. > :04:15.is a process which needs to be handled very sensetively. It may
:04:16. > :04:19.take some time to complete. The pupils who witnessed this incident
:04:20. > :04:23.are being interviewed by specialist officers and are experienced in
:04:24. > :04:28.dealing with child witnesses and will ensure their welfare is
:04:29. > :04:35.paramount. We cannot name the boy accused. This is his Facebook page.
:04:36. > :04:39.An illustration of the grim reaper. It shows his love of console gaming.
:04:40. > :04:44.I didn't see him with a lot of people, friend and that. This pupil
:04:45. > :04:49.is in Year 11, the same as the boy held by police. We have protected
:04:50. > :04:53.his identity. With a was his relationship like with Mrs Maguire
:04:54. > :04:57.Apparently he has never liked her. That is is all he said. Never liked
:04:58. > :05:00.her, never got on with her. It's not just police looking for answers,
:05:01. > :05:06.children too want to know why this happened. Many, many thanks for all
:05:07. > :05:12.your hard work and dedication. Siobhan was once the Head Girl here.
:05:13. > :05:17.You are an amazing talented... The words of Ann Maguire, a teacher who
:05:18. > :05:25.touched so many lives. Lots and lots of love, best wishes, Mrs Maguire.
:05:26. > :05:30.This will be a slow investigation. Already traumatised children need to
:05:31. > :05:35.be interviewed by police. As for calls for metal detectors in
:05:36. > :05:38.schools. We heard from the head teacher at Corpus Christi, she said
:05:39. > :05:42.this is something Mrs Maguire would not have wanted for her school or
:05:43. > :05:46.her pupils. Thank you. People have been leaving flowers and tributes
:05:47. > :05:51.for Ann Maguire. Many of her pupils have described her as an
:05:52. > :05:57."inspirational teacher." Danny Savage has been speaking to some of
:05:58. > :06:00.her students, past and present. Nearly every tribute here has a
:06:01. > :06:05.deeply personal story attached to it about Ann Maguire. Many are from
:06:06. > :06:11.families who have known her for years. Over two generations, about
:06:12. > :06:14.half a dozen of Vicki Hurley's family, were taught by her My dad
:06:15. > :06:21.was there, on her first day of teaching. She were firm with us, but
:06:22. > :06:23.so understanding about different situations that every student was
:06:24. > :06:27.going through. It was just lovely how she had that personal connection
:06:28. > :06:30.with each student. ?? FORCEDWHITE That personal connection with Ann
:06:31. > :06:34.Maguire was apparent at the school gate this afternoon too. Julie
:06:35. > :06:37.Langton was taught by her in the 1980s and took great comfort in
:06:38. > :06:41.knowing her own children would also get to know her. Really proud that,
:06:42. > :06:48.you know, they would be going to the same school that I went to. Would be
:06:49. > :06:52.taught by some of the teachers that I once had. Really pleased when I
:06:53. > :06:56.knew that Mrs Maguire was still there. How special was that for you
:06:57. > :06:59.to have a teacher that will taught your mum? It was really nice and
:07:00. > :07:02.pleasant. It was like, I could actually find out what my mum was
:07:03. > :07:05.like when she was younger, without my mum actually telling me. ??
:07:06. > :07:08.FORCEDWHITE Looking back on their school years, many people will have
:07:09. > :07:12.that special teacher who made a real difference to their lives. What this
:07:13. > :07:14.shows is that there are hundreds, if not thousands, of adults and
:07:15. > :07:17.children here in Leeds who regard Ann Maguire as their special
:07:18. > :07:22.teacher. She just took the time, the effort. She stayed behind after
:07:23. > :07:26.school. She did everything she could to make sure you achieved the best
:07:27. > :07:29.that you could, which I did. The emotions here will be raw for a long
:07:30. > :07:39.time, as one tribute read, "Mrs Maguire was more than just books."
:07:40. > :07:43.Danny Savage, BBC News, Leeds. The UK economy has grown again for the
:07:44. > :07:48.fifth quarter in a row. It's the first time that has happened since
:07:49. > :07:52.the recession. It expanded by 0.8% in the first three months of this
:07:53. > :07:55.year. Analysts say it could soon surpass its pre-recession peak.
:07:56. > :08:01.Here's our chief economics correspondent, human pip. The
:08:02. > :08:04.British economy is revving up, helped by industries like this,
:08:05. > :08:09.ahead of the global competition. Silverstone is at the heart of the
:08:10. > :08:12.so-called motor sport valley, 40,000 people are employed in hi-tech
:08:13. > :08:17.engineering businesses. The local area has the highest employment rate
:08:18. > :08:22.in the country. We adapt an existing road car. Companies like this are
:08:23. > :08:26.growing fast, designing for customers in the UK and overseas.
:08:27. > :08:29.The boss told me about his plans to expand and take on new staff. There
:08:30. > :08:33.is a huge opportunity for growth. It's really the most exciting time
:08:34. > :08:37.there has been in the industry for 100 years. A wide variety of new
:08:38. > :08:43.technologies coming through onto the market. A lot of research and
:08:44. > :08:46.development work required. Nick, who is self-employed, has seen work come
:08:47. > :08:52.his way. He says keeping up with household bills isn't always easy.
:08:53. > :08:57.Renting is quite expensive. The fuel situation is quite expensive. It's
:08:58. > :09:01.very slowly moving, as far as I'm concerned anyway. I'm sure there are
:09:02. > :09:06.others who will do better than me personally. That is one of the big
:09:07. > :09:10.issues. From January to March, construction grew by 0.3%. It was
:09:11. > :09:15.held back by bad weather. Manufacturing was up 1.3%. The
:09:16. > :09:19.strongest growth in nearly four years. The dominant services sector
:09:20. > :09:24.was up nearly 1%. The economy may be motoring along, but getting back to
:09:25. > :09:29.where it was in 2008, before the recession, is the key marker on the
:09:30. > :09:32.road towards a balanced and sustained recovery. That hasn't
:09:33. > :09:36.happened yet, it probably will in the middle of the year. The
:09:37. > :09:41.Chancellor, George Osborne, was making his point about rebuilding
:09:42. > :09:44.the economy on a visit to a new housing development in Kent. He told
:09:45. > :09:47.me, as far as he was concerned, the job was not complete. What these
:09:48. > :09:51.numbers today show is that Britain is coming back. We can't take that
:09:52. > :09:55.for granted. We have to go on working through our long-term
:09:56. > :09:59.economic plan. Of course, families are still feeling the effect of the
:10:00. > :10:03.great recession, we do now see in place the foundations for a
:10:04. > :10:07.broad-base recovery. Labour claimed there was still a squeeze on living
:10:08. > :10:11.standards. David Cameron and George Osborne are trying to tell people
:10:12. > :10:13.the cost-of-living crisis is over. That is jarring with people
:10:14. > :10:17.up-and-down the country who say, look there may be growth, but there
:10:18. > :10:23.is no recovery in my living standards. Average wage increases
:10:24. > :10:27.have now caught up with price rises. Ministers can only hope a feel good
:10:28. > :10:31.factor begins to emerge in the months ahead. Hugh Pym, BBC News.
:10:32. > :10:36.The former leader of the Liberal Party, David Steel, has rejected
:10:37. > :10:40.suggestions that he "turned a blind eye" to allegations of child abuse
:10:41. > :10:44.against the late Cyril Smith. Lord Steel said he raised the matter with
:10:45. > :10:48.the then MP in 1979 when allegations were made in a magazine. Yesterday,
:10:49. > :10:52.Rochdale Council announced an independent review into claims of a
:10:53. > :10:55.cover-up of alleged child abuse by Cyril Smith. Our political
:10:56. > :11:03.correspondent, Eleanor Garnier, reports. It was 1972, Cyril Smith
:11:04. > :11:07.celebrated being elected as the Liberal MP for Rochdale, a career
:11:08. > :11:13.that was to last 20 years. He quickly became a senior member of
:11:14. > :11:18.the party. In 1979, allegations emerged about Cyril Smith's
:11:19. > :11:22.involvement with boys at a hostel in Rochdale. Private Eye reported
:11:23. > :11:28.claims that Cyril Smith had been involved in "unusual behaviour" with
:11:29. > :11:35.a victim claiming, "he hit me many times with his bare hand. I pleaded
:11:36. > :11:39.with him to stop." Today can Lord Steel defended his decision not to
:11:40. > :11:44.launch an inquiry into those abuse investigations. He said it was true.
:11:45. > :11:48.He had some supervisory role. That he had been accused of interfering
:11:49. > :11:52.with boys a the this institution. The police had investigated it and
:11:53. > :11:58.no action had been taken. That was, as I say, some 10 years before.
:11:59. > :12:02.Those allegations date back to the 1960s when Cyril Smith was a Labour
:12:03. > :12:07.councillor. Lord Steel insists he had no need to investigate. There
:12:08. > :12:12.were no further whispers or rumours or anything else. After that
:12:13. > :12:17.allegations. As I say, it was 10 years, more than 10 years old, he
:12:18. > :12:20.had gone on to high office and high honour in the Labour Party before he
:12:21. > :12:23.joined the Liberals. He wasn't even a member of my party at the time.
:12:24. > :12:28.There was absolutely no reason for me to go flirting around in old
:12:29. > :12:33.stuff. Lord Steel has come under pressure to answer questions about
:12:34. > :12:38.Cyril Smith, since the launch of investigations by Greater Manchester
:12:39. > :12:43.Police and Rochdale Council. Eddie, claims he became an emotional wreck
:12:44. > :12:47.after being abused by Cyril Smith in 1962. Do you think enough was done
:12:48. > :12:54.to investigate the allegations at the time? No. Lord Steel would have
:12:55. > :12:59.been responsible. He run the national party, the Liberal Party.
:13:00. > :13:03.When the allegations were made they surely had the facilities that they
:13:04. > :13:11.could have looked into it deeper, and by not looking into it, by just
:13:12. > :13:16.dismissing it, it treats the victims as of no consequence. Cyril Smith's
:13:17. > :13:20.family say he always denied the allegations. Lord Steel, and the
:13:21. > :13:25.Liberal Democrats, have made it clear they will co-operate with any
:13:26. > :13:32.police investigation. Eleanor Garnier, BBC News. The time is

:14:16. > :14:18.screening and diagnosis. In fact cancer survival rates are now double
:14:19. > :14:21.what they were in the early 1970s. New research which looked at data
:14:22. > :14:24.from more than seven million patients in England and Wales found
:14:25. > :14:33.that 50% of people diagnosed now with cancer will live for at least
:14:34. > :14:36.ten years. But some survival rates for cancers like those of the
:14:37. > :14:39.pancreas, lungs and brain still remain stubbornly low. Here's our
:14:40. > :14:46.health correspondent Branwen Jeffreys. The fight against cancer
:14:47. > :14:49.relies on many weapons. Screening for changes, precision tools for
:14:50. > :14:59.doctors, drugs designed to lock onto tumours. Research into how and why
:15:00. > :15:03.cancers grow. If you are young, fit and active like Parminder, the last
:15:04. > :15:06.thing you expect is cancer. The only sign of her brain tumour was
:15:07. > :15:12.headaches until a trip to the dentists led to scans. The
:15:13. > :15:17.neurosurgeon actually said to me that you're very lucky. If you had
:15:18. > :15:22.left it a couple of months you'd be dead. And when he said that, I
:15:23. > :15:30.thought, what? Oh my God! I was so, so lucky. I'm so determined that
:15:31. > :15:34.this never comes back. At least now there is hope. Being a cancer
:15:35. > :15:38.patient in the 1970s was grim. The other form of treatment is known as
:15:39. > :15:41.chemotherapy. There were fewer drugs and the odds were against you.
:15:42. > :15:45.Large-scale cancer research was just getting going. Now scientists are
:15:46. > :15:51.working in a new area of genetic knowledge. Research has helped
:15:52. > :15:53.completely transform cancer survival but cancer is many different
:15:54. > :16:05.diseases. And some remain hard to detect and difficult to treat. The
:16:06. > :16:09.patterns of survival for individual cancers is hugely different. For
:16:10. > :16:14.testicular cancer, more than 90% of men will survive more than ten
:16:15. > :16:16.years. Sadly, for cancers of the oesophagus or the pancreas, the
:16:17. > :16:24.figures surviving for ten years are oesophagus or the pancreas, the
:16:25. > :16:29.less than 5%. So there's been a big push with new ads to make us all
:16:30. > :16:32.aware of warning signs. Finding cancers too late is one reason
:16:33. > :16:40.survival lags behind other countries. With a range of work that
:16:41. > :16:43.is now going on, particularly around late diagnosis, I do believe that
:16:44. > :16:47.over the next five or ten years we will close that gap. So only by
:16:48. > :17:02.improving faster than other countries will the UK match the best

:17:39. > :17:42.Westminster source said the committee believe this to be a
:17:43. > :17:47.sensible and proportionate decision. Matters is because there have been
:17:48. > :17:51.suggested this could force him to leave Parliament for good. That
:17:52. > :17:56.would be a huge headache for the Conservatives although they have a
:17:57. > :18:01.pretty large majority in his constituency in Nottingham shot. It
:18:02. > :18:05.would be a prime target for UKIP and tonight, Nigel Farage said he would
:18:06. > :18:08.seriously think about standing for this constituency if there was a
:18:09. > :18:15.by-election after the European elections. Nigel Farage MP, are

:18:40. > :18:42.and those leaving, was 212,000. It shows the task in hand for David

:18:46. > :18:49.political editor Nick Robinson has been touring the UK to test the mood
:18:50. > :18:57.ahead of the European Elections. Tonight he has taken his ballot box
:18:58. > :18:59.to East Yorkshire. It is a four horse race. There's a surprise
:19:00. > :19:07.favourite in next month's Euro elections. It's not the big three.
:19:08. > :19:10.It's UKIP. To examine one possible reason why, I brought my ballot box
:19:11. > :19:19.to Yorkshire, starting here at Beverley races. My question today,
:19:20. > :19:27.is immigration to high? Yes. Yes. Yes? Yes. Yes. Yes. Everybody has
:19:28. > :19:30.put yes. Too high. It's too high. I don't want to sound racist so I'm
:19:31. > :19:35.not going to go that far. I would just stop it. I would curb it. If
:19:36. > :19:40.that meant getting out of Europe? I'd get out of Europe tomorrow.
:19:41. > :19:45.Would you actually vote to come out of Europe? Yes, certainly. You might
:19:46. > :19:50.vote for UKIP? Well, no, I'm undecided. The odds are that you
:19:51. > :19:56.think immigration is too high. Three in every four voters tell pollsters
:19:57. > :20:00.that. But before you place your bets, remember not everyone agrees.
:20:01. > :20:04.Let them come in. If they want to work hard and get a living, my
:20:05. > :20:08.father came with nothing. He came on a boat. It's a global world,
:20:09. > :20:11.although we need to control immigration, I think we need to
:20:12. > :20:16.accept this is happening all over the world not just in the UK. And
:20:17. > :20:19.there's still a question about whether people really care enough
:20:20. > :20:27.about this one issue to change the way they vote. Will immigration be a
:20:28. > :20:31.big factor for you? No. Because? It's not really important at the
:20:32. > :20:39.moment. There's other things more important than immigration. This is
:20:40. > :20:42.an almost exclusively white crowd. You might think concern about
:20:43. > :20:51.immigration would be lower down the road in a multiracial, multicultural
:20:52. > :20:57.city like Leeds. It is. They have got ambition and most of them are
:20:58. > :21:03.very entrepreneurial. The Polish. Eastern Europe. If you go to
:21:04. > :21:07.Bradford, even in the market, a lot of them are ambitious and want to do
:21:08. > :21:09.something for themselves. But that immigration from Europe, white
:21:10. > :21:11.immigration, is fuelling public concern which is felt as deeply at
:21:12. > :21:21.the temple as anywhere else. The people learning how to dance
:21:22. > :21:29.Bollywood style fear their kids and grandkids may suffer unfair
:21:30. > :21:31.competition for jobs and houses. That surprises someone watching,
:21:32. > :21:37.whose only recently moved to the city from India. With the way the
:21:38. > :21:40.world is globalised now, immigration just follows and people are always
:21:41. > :21:41.looking for better opportunities in life, better standard of living,
:21:42. > :21:54.better wages. Everyone else here lined up to vote
:21:55. > :21:57.yes to immigration being too high. So they shouldn't allow mass exodus
:21:58. > :22:02.from East European countries like Romania and allow everybody to come
:22:03. > :22:13.in. Why is it a problem? Because when we came in, we were skill
:22:14. > :22:19.tested. Not everybody. All the parties now say a vote for them is
:22:20. > :22:26.about to control immigration. The question is who will voters believe
:22:27. > :22:37.if anyone? And there's more on the European and local elections online.
:22:38. > :22:41.There were dramatic scenes at Wells Cathedral in Somerset this afternoon
:22:42. > :22:44.as a Sea King helicopter was brought in to rescue a woman who'd become
:22:45. > :22:47.stuck in the cathedral's tower. She'd been on tour when she fell and
:22:48. > :22:58.became trapped between two walls. Jon Kay reports. This wasn't just a
:22:59. > :23:03.cathedral tour. This was a rooftop tour and this lady in his 60s is
:23:04. > :23:06.right up there seeing parts of the building tourists don't normally see
:23:07. > :23:13.when she fell somehow ended up trapped inside the roof in a narrow
:23:14. > :23:19.area which was almost inaccessible. In its history, Wells Cathedral has
:23:20. > :23:24.never had to pray like this. High inside the ancient bell tower, 150
:23:25. > :23:32.feet up, a woman had fallen during a rooftop tour. And urgently had to be
:23:33. > :23:36.rescued from between the two turrets where she was stuck. But for the
:23:37. > :23:41.teams abseiling down to reach her, they were all kinds of challenges.
:23:42. > :23:48.Small doorways, tight spiral stone staircases. Where she had fallen,
:23:49. > :23:55.and sustained injuries, it was clear we couldn't come out of the
:23:56. > :23:58.cathedral by conventional routes. In the end, help came from above. In
:23:59. > :24:08.the form of an RAF rescue helicopter. They lowered a stretcher
:24:09. > :24:12.onto the roof. As nervous crowds waited, inside the cathedral, verges
:24:13. > :24:18.guided rescue teams through the passageways and staircases and after
:24:19. > :24:23.three hours, stuck in the belltower, the woman was winched to safety.
:24:24. > :24:28.Taken to hospital in Bristol, to be treated for suspected broken wrists
:24:29. > :24:33.and pelvis. The cathedral has abandoned its rooftop tours for the
:24:34. > :24:36.foreseeable future. We will investigate and ask the question
:24:37. > :24:41.what happened and then when we got the answer, we will decide what
:24:42. > :24:51.action to take. Rescue teams said the woman was very lucky. Not to be
:24:52. > :24:55.more badly injured. Time for a look at the weather with Darren Bett. Big
:24:56. > :25:00.changes on the way by the end of the week.
:25:01. > :25:08.Tonight, telling misty and murky with patchy fog of many places will
:25:09. > :25:11.be dry. Some showers today mainly across southern England. They will
:25:12. > :25:15.decay overnight and apart from bit of rain coming into northern
:25:16. > :25:21.Scotland, it should be a dry night. Low cloud from the North Sea, Rand
:25:22. > :25:29.Western coasts. Mist and fog giving earlier showers and a mild start the
:25:30. > :25:36.miss key -- Mr start. -- misty start. We will see a band of rain
:25:37. > :25:39.coming in from the Atlantic to affect southwestern parts of
:25:40. > :25:44.England, especially in the afternoon, but in the West Country,
:25:45. > :25:52.across the south-east, a dry day, I suspect, and quite warm, as well.
:25:53. > :25:56.18-19, very pleasant. Showers in North Wales. Thundery showers over
:25:57. > :25:59.the Pennines. It could stay dry until the evening in Northern
:26:00. > :26:06.Ireland. Turning wet in Scotland with outbreaks of rain. A much
:26:07. > :26:09.colder day as well. There may be a bit of snow in the mountains on
:26:10. > :26:14.Thursday. Thursday, showers, longer spells of rain with showers in
:26:15. > :26:18.southern parts of the UK. And that's because we have an area of low
:26:19. > :26:23.pressure around which has gone by Friday and instead high pressure is
:26:24. > :26:28.moving in. Much drier and brighter, much changed by the end of the week.
:26:29. > :26:34.Feeling colder for the East of England. The bank holiday weekend,
:26:35. > :26:37.of course, some warm sunshine, temperatures recovering. Some rain
:26:38. > :26:41.possibly for the North West of Scotland and Northern Ireland but
:26:42. > :26:48.gardeners take note. It will be cold at night. There is frost on the way.
:26:49. > :26:49.Thank you very much. Goodbye from me. And on BBC One we now join
