:01:20. > :01:34.speak to his neighbours. Good evening and welcome to the

:01:35. > :01:37.BBC News at Six. In her first interview,

:01:38. > :01:39.the wife of the British hostage Alan Henning has called on the Islamic

:01:40. > :01:42.extremists threatening to kill him Mr Henning, a taxi driver

:01:43. > :01:50.from Salford, has been held by the Jihadi group Islamic State

:01:51. > :01:53.since he was captured delivering aid Barbara Henning said

:01:54. > :01:56.the international outcry at her husband's imprisonment gave

:01:57. > :01:59.her hope. She was talking to our North

:02:00. > :02:13.of England Correspondent Ed Thomas. For ninths, Alan Henning, a Salford

:02:14. > :02:18.taxi driver, has been Islamic State's host tang. With his life

:02:19. > :02:22.threatened, his wife has spoken for the first time to the BBC to send

:02:23. > :02:29.this statement to those holding him. I have a further message for Islamic

:02:30. > :02:35.State. We've not abandoned Alan. We continue to try to communicate with

:02:36. > :02:41.you. I've had no contact from Islamic State other than an Audi of

:02:42. > :02:46.him pleading for his life. I ask again, for Islamic State to spare

:02:47. > :02:52.Alan's life. Alan Henning travelled to Syria in a Muslim aid convoy. He

:02:53. > :02:57.took food and water for those whose lives had been destroyed by civil

:02:58. > :03:03.war. It is all worthwhile when you see what's needed gets to where it

:03:04. > :03:08.needs to go. We are at a loss why those leading Islamic State cannot

:03:09. > :03:12.open their Hearts and Minds to Alan's humanitarian motives for

:03:13. > :03:17.going to Syria and why they continue to ignore the verdict of their own

:03:18. > :03:23.justice system. Surely those who wish to be seen as a state will act

:03:24. > :03:27.in a SATs likes way. Alan Henning was said to have known

:03:28. > :03:32.the risks. He was on his fourth aid convoy when he was taken. If Alan is

:03:33. > :03:38.hearing this, what message do you want to say directly to him? Alan,

:03:39. > :03:43.we miss you and are dreadfully concerned for your safety. But we're

:03:44. > :03:49.given so much hope by the outcry across the world as to your

:03:50. > :03:53.imprisonment. I ask Islamic State, please release him. We need him back

:03:54. > :03:57.home. Thank you. Barbara Henning says Islamic State

:03:58. > :03:59.is not listening to her pleas for Alan to be released, to be home with

:04:00. > :04:05.those who miss him most. The Defence Secretary Michael Fallon

:04:06. > :04:08.has announced the first successful British airstrikes on IS targets

:04:09. > :04:10.in Iraq, since parliament voted to Two Tornadoes, seen here making

:04:11. > :04:14.a safe return to their base at Akrotiri in Cyprus, attacked

:04:15. > :04:16.and destroyed an IS heavy weapons position which Mr Fallon said was

:04:17. > :04:21.endangering Kurdish forces. Our defence correspondent

:04:22. > :04:35.Jonathan Beale is at the What can you tell us about these two

:04:36. > :04:41.sortees? We -- watched them leave this morning. They came back here at

:04:42. > :04:46.sunset. We know their mission was over north-west Iraq. We understand

:04:47. > :04:55.it was around the region of the Mosul dam. They hit first of all

:04:56. > :05:02.using a machine gun post. In support of Peshmerga fighters. In total, we

:05:03. > :05:07.understand there were seven air strikes by coalition forces in this

:05:08. > :05:14.area. Two of those by the RAF. The significance is this is the first

:05:15. > :05:18.time RAF torn eight owes hit RAF targets. They've flown six missions.

:05:19. > :05:24.This is the first time they've used those weapons. To give you a sense

:05:25. > :05:28.of scale to how difficult this is. The US has flown many more missions

:05:29. > :05:31.but only carried out 300 strikes. Thank you.

:05:32. > :05:33.A future Conservative Government would impose tighter restrictions

:05:34. > :05:38.on people with extremist views, according to the

:05:39. > :05:42.Speaking at the Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham she said

:05:43. > :05:45.new "banning orders" would allow the authorities to outlaw extremist

:05:46. > :05:50.groups if they incite religious or racial hatred or threaten democracy.

:05:51. > :05:52.There would be no need to prove that they pose

:05:53. > :05:58.Those same groups could also be subject to extremism disruption

:05:59. > :06:01.orders which would restrict their movements and prevent them

:06:02. > :06:05.As our Home Affairs Correspondent Daniel

:06:06. > :06:07.Sandford reports, the proposals have provoked some sharp criticism, even

:06:08. > :06:22.Zblp it was the brutal killing of Drummer Lee Rigby last year by two

:06:23. > :06:26.British men that reopened the debate about extremism. Since then,

:06:27. > :06:31.hundreds of Britain's have gone to Syria to fight with hardline

:06:32. > :06:34.Islamists. So today, at the Conservative Party party conference,

:06:35. > :06:41.the Home Secretary proposed a new strategy. It will aim to undermine

:06:42. > :06:49.and eliminate extreme itch in all its forms. Neo Naziism as well as

:06:50. > :06:55.Islamist extremism. It will aim to build up society to identify

:06:56. > :07:04.extremism, confront it, challenge it and defeat it. The Muslims are...

:07:05. > :07:12.The plan is to ban extremist groups even if they are not directly linked

:07:13. > :07:18.to terrorism and is to stop broadcasting inter vis. Men like

:07:19. > :07:23.this man who's been linkeds to several Islamists who went on to

:07:24. > :07:29.commit acts of violence. Are you extremists? I believe in submission.

:07:30. > :07:33.I'm extreme from democracy. I believe it belongs to God. I'm

:07:34. > :07:42.extreme from man-made law. I believe in divine law. Does that make me a

:07:43. > :07:47.criminal? Theresa May's speech has opened a debate, how to keep people

:07:48. > :07:50.of Britain safe and preserve our ancient liberties. Freedom of

:07:51. > :07:58.expression which have been part of our way of life for centuries. These

:07:59. > :08:02.are incredible powers to limit democratic rights people have had

:08:03. > :08:05.for 200 years in this country. They are based on the Home Secretary

:08:06. > :08:11.having a reasonable belief. That's the test. Not evidential test. But

:08:12. > :08:17.reasonable belief an organisation will break certain criteria. Where

:08:18. > :08:21.Pemex press opinions which are not inciting crime with which we

:08:22. > :08:27.disagree strongly, that's part of the democratic process by which we

:08:28. > :08:33.live. Theresa May insisted the proposed laws would be restricted to

:08:34. > :08:35.people inciting hatreds or violence or strew trying to overthrow

:08:36. > :08:37.democracy. There's growing concern about a

:08:38. > :08:40.15-year-old girl from Bristol who's The girl's parents reported her

:08:41. > :08:44.missing last Wednesday after she Detectives have traced her movements

:08:45. > :08:50.from the Easton area of Bristol to Priority is to find her before she

:08:51. > :09:00.crosses into the border into Syria. The Prime Minister has been

:09:01. > :09:04.defending the Conservatives' plans to freeze

:09:05. > :09:07.some working age benefits if they win the next election, despite

:09:08. > :09:09.criticism from welfare groups. Mr Cameron said it was only fair

:09:10. > :09:12.that benefits shouldn't rise faster He's been speaking to our

:09:13. > :09:21.Political Editor Nick Robinson. Hard working families, that's who

:09:22. > :09:27.politicians always say they want to help. On the morning after the

:09:28. > :09:30.promise before the yet more austerity, David Cameron and George

:09:31. > :09:36.Osborne made apprentices building Birmingham's new station. As the

:09:37. > :09:39.phone-in's debated their promise to freeze most benefits and tax

:09:40. > :09:44.credits. It is the working class keeping this country going. They are

:09:45. > :09:47.not getting paid for it. There are a lot of non-working people who screw

:09:48. > :09:52.the system and are making it a lifestyle. When I spoke to the Prime

:09:53. > :09:55.Minister, I asked him whether cutting what's given to seven

:09:56. > :10:02.million working families was really fair? There is a good justification

:10:03. > :10:08.for it. If you take the period from 2007 to 2017, this will mean

:10:09. > :10:13.benefits are not growing faster than earnings which is a basic fairness.

:10:14. > :10:17.As someone tries to afford the food or gas bill, they are not looking at

:10:18. > :10:21.a graph of how benefits have gone up compared with earnings. They are

:10:22. > :10:27.saying, we can't afford the school uniform, the bill. You're taking

:10:28. > :10:33.their money off them. We'll help those families by culting those

:10:34. > :10:39.taxes. You can eastern ?10,500 before paying tax. We'll freeze con

:10:40. > :10:44.council tax, which is a really huge bill. We've cut petrol duty.

:10:45. > :10:48.Wouldn't people in that situation be testimonied to say, the Tories talk

:10:49. > :10:53.about choices but it is hitting people like me and protecting people

:10:54. > :10:58.like them. If you're on ?25,000 a year, you lose around ?500. There

:10:59. > :11:04.are people here who'd spend that on dinner. We've made a big choice in

:11:05. > :11:10.in Parliament by lifting the tax threshold to ?10,500. That means

:11:11. > :11:14.somebody working on minimum wage will see their tax bill come down a

:11:15. > :11:19.third. Is the this is a crumb of comfort to

:11:20. > :11:23.a party worrying a I way about who might be next to leave the Tory

:11:24. > :11:29.table to join UKIP. The conference favourite tried to rally the

:11:30. > :11:34.faithful against the threat of those he calls "the kipperskg" Are we all

:11:35. > :11:40.here by and large proud Conservatives?

:11:41. > :11:45.ALL: Yes Are there defector or quitters?

:11:46. > :11:50.ALL: No. David Cameron's under purchase our to harden his promise

:11:51. > :11:55.on Europe and spell out what he will do if he can't renegotiate a better

:11:56. > :12:00.deal for Britain. What's Plan B? At the end of the day, there will be an

:12:01. > :12:05.I in out referendum whether I am successful or not. That will happen

:12:06. > :12:09.by the end of 2017. The Plan B is getting out? People need to know

:12:10. > :12:14.that guarantee of a referendum is that. But that's leaving? My view is

:12:15. > :12:21.I will succeed in this renegotiation. You mocked Alex

:12:22. > :12:27.Salmond about his Plan B if he didn't get his way on the pound. You

:12:28. > :12:32.said was evasive and you don't want to answer my yes question. Five

:12:33. > :12:38.times I asked him to spell out his Plan B. Five times he didn't answer.

:12:39. > :12:44.Is it realistic to ask what you'll do if you want' get your way in

:12:45. > :12:48.Europe and the people say get out? It is more realistic to say here is

:12:49. > :12:54.a plan. Renegotiate Let's set that out to the British people. Is there

:12:55. > :12:55.anything he can say which will satisfy hardline Eurosceptics? Maybe

:12:56. > :13:06.not. Hundreds of images of boys

:13:07. > :13:11.undressing at a private school in Southend sand at a swimming pool in

:13:12. > :13:18.the town have been found at the home of a schoolteacher. It is 'em

:13:46. > :13:52.at Thorpe Hall School ended with the police discovering at his home 1,500

:13:53. > :14:00.images of children nearly 600 indecent. This is a man who really

:14:01. > :14:03.seemed to live a double life. He was massively respected by everybody who

:14:04. > :14:07.knew him. Looking at the tributes to him on Facebook and his 23 year

:14:08. > :14:13.career at this school really bear that out. It was just the most

:14:14. > :14:20.extraordinary shock. The police visited Goldberg's Southend home

:14:21. > :14:24.three weeks ago. He wasn't arrested. They'd been denied a search warrant.

:14:25. > :14:31.The next day he killed himself but not before trying to burn the disc

:14:32. > :14:37.of the film and pictures. Four pupils have been identified from the

:14:38. > :14:40.photographs. It doesn't affect my child. I feel

:14:41. > :14:46.really sorry for the parents and children it does. I would be

:14:47. > :14:51.extremely upset and shocked. It seems Goldberg could have been

:14:52. > :14:57.stopped two years ago. He was on a list of over 2,000 British men

:14:58. > :15:00.passed by the Toronto police to the British authorities suspected of

:15:01. > :15:04.buying individuals use of naked young boys. There's been much

:15:05. > :15:08.criticism that information was not passed on to police forces for a

:15:09. > :15:11.year-and-a-half. When Essex Police got that information, it took them

:15:12. > :15:15.another nine months to investigate him.

:15:16. > :15:20.Essex Police refusing to explain what happened. The police watchdog

:15:21. > :15:24.could investigate. Why will you not answer whether there was a

:15:25. > :15:27.nine-month delay? The issue has been referred to the independent police

:15:28. > :15:32.complaints commission. At the moment, we are awaiting direction

:15:33. > :15:36.from them on what we can disclose. That doesn't stop you confirming

:15:37. > :15:40.whether there was a delay? That 's my understanding at the moment.

:16:32. > :16:38.children - found sugary foods and drink have caused tooth decay

:16:51. > :16:59.Dominic Hughes, has more. Let's count around

:17:00. > :17:01.and see what your teeth are like. At the age of just four, Maryam is

:17:02. > :17:05.no stranger to the dentist's chair. She's already had four teeth

:17:06. > :17:07.extracted and another nine Maryam didn't

:17:25. > :17:27.be to not give in to the child. Keep them brushing and keep their

:17:35. > :17:40.the consequences can be traumatic. On Tuesday, I spent about six-hours

:17:41. > :17:42.in anaesthetic theatre, Of those 10 patients, on average,

:17:43. > :17:49.I took out about seven baby teeth But the cause of decay in children

:17:50. > :17:59.is simple - too much sugar in food and, in particular, sugary drinks

:18:00. > :18:02.in baby bottles or sipping cups. We need to reduce the amount

:18:03. > :18:04.of sugar. There is sugar in fruit juice s,

:18:05. > :18:08.in soft drinks and in sweets. In this age group, 0-3, that's where

:18:09. > :18:11.they're getting their sugar from. So we need parents

:18:31. > :18:34.entirely preventable disease. The advice is that cutting down on

:19:16. > :19:28."the polite protest." But China called them "extremists"

:19:29. > :19:34.who show contempt for the law. Hong Kong's Chief Executive

:19:35. > :19:37.said he'd had enough. The organisers of Occupy Central

:19:38. > :19:45.have said many times that if the movement goes out of control,

:22:48. > :22:52.which apply to England, include a pledge to extend seven-day a week GP

:22:53. > :22:56.surgery access to all patients by 2020 and giving every patient a

:22:57. > :23:03.named GP from April next year. There is a ?50 million fund in place for

:23:04. > :23:07.GPs to extend out of hours access. If re-elected the Conservatives say

:23:08. > :23:13.it would be extended by ?250 million. Do the latest initiatives

:23:14. > :23:18.address the challenges facing GPs and their ability to deliver care to

:23:19. > :23:24.patients? Doubts have been raised in some quarters on both those issues.

:23:25. > :23:29.Some GPs say they are too stretched to think about seven-day a week

:23:30. > :23:34.opening, with a rising population and a heavier workload they argue a

:23:35. > :23:37.lot more money is needed now to help cope with the increasing demands.

:23:38. > :23:43.More care is moving out of hospitals. We haven't seen an

:23:44. > :23:47.expansion of the GP workforce. We are struggling to meet current needs

:23:48. > :23:51.it's hard to understand how we will manage to extend care to seven-days.

:23:52. > :23:55.What do patients think about seven-day a week opening at GP

:23:56. > :23:59.surgeries? It would help me if I was unwell at the weekend. I had it

:24:00. > :24:03.happen anded ended up at A because there was nowhere else to go. Now I

:24:04. > :24:08.would come to my GP and, hopefully, get immediate treatment. Others,

:24:09. > :24:14.while welcoming today's announce am, felt more needed to be done. We have

:24:15. > :24:19.to call up at 8. 30am or 12.30pm in the afternoon. That is not flexible

:24:20. > :24:24.if you are working. That could change. Last week Labour pledged

:24:25. > :24:27.more funding for the NHS. The Conservatives have come up with

:24:28. > :24:30.their own new health policies. Further evidence that the state of

:24:31. > :24:33.the NHS will be high on the agenda at the general election. Hugh Pym,

:24:34. > :24:37.BBC News. September has been the driest

:24:38. > :24:39.since records began in 1910 - New figures suggest

:24:40. > :24:43.the UK received just 19.4mm of rain up to 2 days ago,

:24:44. > :24:46.about a fifth of the normal level. It has also been one of the warmest

:24:47. > :24:49.Septembers in the past century. Our correspondent, Duncan Kennedy,

:24:50. > :25:00.joins us now from Bournemouth. Duncan. Fiona, it has been a

:25:01. > :25:03.glorious day here in Bournemouth. Not only have we had people

:25:04. > :25:09.sunbathing on the beach here, there have been a few in swimming.

:25:10. > :25:11.Tomorrow is October! It's not just Bournemouth enjoying all this

:25:12. > :25:12.weather. It has been a record-breaking month for much of

:25:13. > :25:17.the UK. September in Bournemouth,

:25:18. > :25:22.time for paddles, not puddles. Summer's gloriously dry reach has

:25:23. > :25:25.been breaking records Here,

:25:26. > :25:30.the only soaking is from the sun. It has been

:25:31. > :25:35.the sunniest I've ever seen it. Probably the sunniest summer I've

:25:36. > :25:36.seen. This is now officially

:25:37. > :25:46.the driest September Here, on the pier at Bournemouth,

:25:47. > :25:53.temperatures reached 17 degrees Celsius today,

:25:54. > :25:57.capping off a record-breaking month Just look at the sign here,

:25:58. > :26:02.showing that just 19.4mm of rain It's just 20% of the total we would

:26:03. > :26:12.expect for this time of year. It's not just been dry, we've

:26:13. > :26:15.also witnessed the joint fourth The reason

:26:16. > :26:22.for the dry weather has been an area of high pressure that has

:26:23. > :26:25.almost been quite stationary across It's kept the low pressure systems,

:26:26. > :26:30.that bring the wind and the rain, Northern Ireland was the driest

:26:31. > :26:34.place with just 6mm of rain. Whilst Scotland was the wettest,

:26:35. > :26:38.with five times that amount. But summer's slow march into autumn

:26:39. > :26:45.has proved a tonic for most of us. September really will

:26:46. > :26:46.be one to remember. Duncan Kennedy,

:26:47. > :26:54.BBC News in Bournemouth. Time for a look at the weather,

:26:55. > :27:06.here's Alex Deakin. Aldown to the high pressure? The

:27:07. > :27:10.high pressure and the jetstream high up in the atmosphere that has been

:27:11. > :27:17.to the north of the UK. That is why it has been so dry. That fast moving

:27:18. > :27:21.air has been positioned across Scotland and further north. That

:27:22. > :27:24.jetstream that steers the areas of low pressure. The low pressure

:27:25. > :27:28.systems bring the wet and windy weather. Because the jetstream has

:27:29. > :27:31.been to the north, the low pressures have been steered to the north we

:27:32. > :27:36.have been under the influence of high pressure, which is why it has

:27:37. > :27:39.been dree. There was a little bit of rain in Northern Ireland. The damp

:27:40. > :27:42.weather will trickle across most areas through the course of the

:27:43. > :27:48.evening. Nothing too heavy. More rain returning to the far north-west

:27:49. > :27:53.later on tonight. There will be fag patches, not a cold night, a warm

:27:54. > :27:56.start to October temperatures 14-15 degrees in the morning. A grey

:27:57. > :28:01.morning, for one reason or another, any mist or fog should clear.

:28:02. > :28:06.Scotland and Northern Ireland will see afternoon sunshine. More cloud

:28:07. > :28:10.than today across Wales and England. Light showers here and there

:28:11. > :28:15.drifting eastwards. There will be brightness until the mist and fog

:28:16. > :28:21.has cleared. We could reach 20 degrees Celsius. A cloudier feel to

:28:22. > :28:25.Northern Ireland. After a grey start to Scotland and Northern Ireland

:28:26. > :28:29.quite a bit of sunshine. Temperatures 14-15 Celsius. One or

:28:30. > :28:32.two showers to the far north-west, as there could be on Thursday. For

:28:33. > :28:36.most, Thursday is another dry day. A hint of sunshine here and there. We

:28:37. > :28:40.could start off with mist and fog. A small chance of one or two showers

:28:41. > :28:44.in the south. Most places dry and again quite mild. Change is taking

:28:45. > :28:49.place. Dramatic changes potentially for the end of the week, we will see

:28:50. > :28:54.things turning cooler and more blustery. Thank you very much. That

:28:55. > :28:55.is all from us. Now on BBC One
