:00:19. > :00:24.The authorities admit he was known to police.
:00:25. > :00:27.TRANSLATION: This person attracted the attention

:01:56. > :01:58.A Europe-wide manhunt is under way tonight
:01:59. > :02:01.after German police issued a warrant for a suspect
:02:02. > :02:03.in the Berlin Christmas-market terror attack.
:02:04. > :02:09.a failed asylum-seeker who arrived in Germany last year.
:02:10. > :02:11.It's emerged that Amri was known to German authorities
:02:12. > :02:15.because of his links to an Islamist extremist.
:02:16. > :02:18.So tonight the police there are facing serious questions
:02:19. > :02:21.about whether they should have done more to stop him.
:02:22. > :02:25.From Berlin, Jenny Hill sent this report.
:02:26. > :02:28.You're looking at Europe's most wanted man.
:02:29. > :02:36.Anis Amri is the main, the only suspect in the investigation
:02:37. > :02:39.into an attack which shattered Germany.
:02:40. > :02:41.TRANSLATION: There's a new suspect, we are searching for him.
:02:42. > :02:47.We issued a warrant for this suspect's arrest at midnight.
:02:48. > :02:51.The warrant covers the whole of Germany and most of Europe.
:02:52. > :02:55.We're learning more about the 24-year-old Tunisian.
:02:56. > :03:01.He was refused asylum but granted temporary leave to stay.
:03:02. > :03:04.He was known to the authorities, considered a threat because of
:03:05. > :03:08.his links to one of Germany's most notorious Islamist networks.
:03:09. > :03:18.he used six different names and three nationalities.

:03:28. > :03:29.It's thought he struggled with the man who should have been
:03:30. > :03:33.behind the wheel before shooting him dead.
:03:34. > :03:37.Germany's misery compounded by the suggestion again
:03:38. > :03:40.that one of those who sought asylum here may have been responsible.
:03:41. > :03:47.Earlier, the far-right Dutch politician Geert Wilders
:03:48. > :03:52.posted a picture of the Chancellor, her hands covered in blood.
:03:53. > :03:55.Do you blame Angela Merkel for what happened?
:03:56. > :03:59."Angela Merkel," she says, "is a humanitarian woman."
:04:00. > :04:01."She did the right thing a year ago,

:04:17. > :04:25.is Fabrizia Di Lorenzo, who comes from L'Aquila.
:04:26. > :04:27.TRANSLATION: We have to realise that we are vulnerable
:04:28. > :04:30.right in the middle of our country, of our capital.
:04:31. > :04:32.We have to realise that we aren't spared
:04:33. > :04:35.the kind of attacks that happen elsewhere.
:04:36. > :04:38.Tonight, they don't know where their main suspect is.
:04:39. > :04:42.In fact, they're offering a reward of 100,000 euros.
:04:43. > :04:47.But this investigation does now have a face and a focus.
:04:48. > :04:57.That is, for some here perhaps, a little light in the darkness.
:04:58. > :05:03.And we can talk to Jenny Hill in Berlin. The more we learn from your
:05:04. > :05:10.report, the more it feels like the German police could have perhaps,
:05:11. > :05:15.should have done more. Yes, and I think there will be a growing sense
:05:16. > :05:20.of frustration, if not anger, actually, and for two reasons. First
:05:21. > :05:24.of all, Anis Amri was known to the authorities, they considered him to
:05:25. > :05:28.be dangerous because of his links to an extremist network. Secondly, of
:05:29. > :05:33.course, it was 24 hours before they identified him as the main suspect
:05:34. > :05:37.in this case, and bear in mind that during that time the police arrested
:05:38. > :05:44.and finally released an entirely, apparently, Ennis and man, giving
:05:45. > :05:48.Anis Amri a vital head start. -- innocent man. I think too
:05:49. > :05:52.compounding the misery for people in Berlin, in Germany tonight is the
:05:53. > :05:56.suggestion that somebody who entered this country as an asylum seeker may
:05:57. > :06:02.have been responsible, may have been the perpetrator of this terrible
:06:03. > :06:06.attack. Already, this evening, there are demonstrations by the
:06:07. > :06:11.anti-immigrant party, which has been fiercely critical of Angela Merkel's
:06:12. > :06:15.refugee policy. They have been demonstrating in the city this
:06:16. > :06:21.evening. I would go as far as to say that tonight Germany is not simply a
:06:22. > :06:23.country in morning, it is also a country deeply ill at ease. Jenny,
:06:24. > :06:25.thank you very much. With me is our security
:06:26. > :06:37.correspondent Frank Gardner. Paris, Brussels, Nice, Berlin,
:06:38. > :06:41.people will be thinking, where next? The jihadist threat to Europe is not
:06:42. > :06:48.new, it has been around in various forms for 20 years. In the year
:06:49. > :06:53.2000, Al-Qaeda plans to attack a Christmas market in Strasbourg, some
:06:54. > :06:57.16 years ago. But we have seen an intensification of plots, and the
:06:58. > :06:59.Syrian conflict has drawn in unprecedented numbers of
:07:00. > :07:02.international jihadists, would-be fighters, and some of those have
:07:03. > :07:07.been killed on the battlefield, some have given up the fight, but a large
:07:08. > :07:11.number of them are still there or trying to come back, winning their
:07:12. > :07:15.way back into Europe. There is a problem on the borders, a problem
:07:16. > :07:19.with all the different names, so the call to attack European countries is
:07:20. > :07:26.about two years old, specifically from so-called Islamic State. Their
:07:27. > :07:30.spokesman, to jihadist he was quite charismatic, and he issued his call
:07:31. > :07:34.- he is now dead, but a lot of people that call, and that has
:07:35. > :07:37.outlived him. All right, Frank, thank you very much, thank you.
:07:38. > :07:39.A millionaire property developer from south Wales has been jailed
:07:40. > :07:41.for life for the murder of his personal escort.
:07:42. > :07:43.Peter Morgan strangled Georgina Symonds,

:07:49. > :07:54.Georgina Symonds, mother to a five-year-old daughter -

:07:59. > :08:02.The 25-year-old had met property millionaire Peter Morgan
:08:03. > :08:07.The married 54-year-old had become infatuated with her.
:08:08. > :08:11.But the court heard he killed her in a carefully planned attack
:08:12. > :08:15.out of cold anger on finding out that she planned to blackmail him.
:08:16. > :08:22.Georgina Symonds's mother, Deborah, said their family was broken.
:08:23. > :08:23.The death of my daughter, Georgina Symonds,
:08:24. > :08:26.has been a devastating tragedy for the whole of our family.
:08:27. > :08:30.Her beautiful daughter has been left without a mum.
:08:31. > :08:36.Georgina has left a hole in our lives that will never be repaired.
:08:37. > :08:38.During their relationship, the father of two
:08:39. > :08:40.had paid Georgina Symonds up to ?10,000 a month,
:08:41. > :08:43.taken her on helicopter flights and bought expensive gifts.
:08:44. > :08:46.She moved into a bungalow in the grounds
:08:47. > :08:49.of a ruined mansion that he owned, but she didn't know that
:08:50. > :08:53.he'd installed a listening device disguised as a plug adapter.
:08:54. > :08:55.The multimillionaire overheard a conversation in which
:08:56. > :08:57.she spoke of plans to blackmail him by threatening
:08:58. > :08:59.to send intimate pictures to his family.
:09:00. > :09:02.Police visited her bungalow when she was reported missing
:09:03. > :09:05.after failing to pick up her daughter from school.
:09:06. > :09:12.claiming that he didn't know where she was.
:09:13. > :09:14.Where did we think she was going at 12 o'clock?
:09:15. > :09:16.Didn't say. She didn't say.
:09:17. > :09:22.But Georgina Symonds was already dead.

:09:26. > :09:30.that Peter Morgan told police officers what he'd done.
:09:31. > :09:34.The trouble was, once I'd sort of attempted to murder her,
:09:35. > :09:37.I'd be in a hell of a lot of trouble for that,
:09:38. > :09:43.and she could have still gone on and blackmailed me, couldn't she?
:09:44. > :09:47.During his trial, the jury had been told
:09:48. > :09:50.that Peter Morgan had Asperger's syndrome.
:09:51. > :09:52.He had denied murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility,
:09:53. > :09:56.but the judge told him that the plans that he had made
:09:57. > :09:59.and the steps he had taken to cover up what he'd done showed
:10:00. > :10:01.that he was in control and understood his actions.
:10:02. > :10:04.Peter Morgan showed no emotion as he was sentenced to life
:10:05. > :10:10.in prison with a minimum of 25 years for the murder of Georgina Symonds.

:10:15. > :10:18.The Queen and Prince Philip have delayed plans to travel
:10:19. > :10:20.to their estate in Sandringham in Norfolk today, because
:10:21. > :10:22.they both have what Buckingham Palace described as "heavy colds".
:10:23. > :10:26.The Queen, who celebrated her 90th birthday this year,

:10:33. > :10:45.Neck, what more can you tell us? Well, this is the story of the day,
:10:46. > :10:48.George, all the travel arrangements were in place for a train journey
:10:49. > :10:53.from King's Cross to King's Lynn at around 11 o'clock this morning, the
:10:54. > :10:57.protection people were there but then they were told to stand down,
:10:58. > :11:00.nobody would be travelling. Speculation started, at 1:30
:11:01. > :11:06.Buckingham Palace let it be known that the Queen and the Duke had, in
:11:07. > :11:11.their words, heavy colds, and travel was delayed. The question is whether
:11:12. > :11:15.they will be able to make the journey tomorrow, Friday or indeed
:11:16. > :11:18.Saturday, Christmas Eve. There is every expectation that they will,
:11:19. > :11:20.the Royal Family gather at Sandringham for Christmas, and they
:11:21. > :11:25.certainly won't want to miss that. The health of the Queen in recent
:11:26. > :11:29.times seemingly as robust as ever for somebody in a 91st year. The
:11:30. > :11:34.health or so of the Duke, at the age of 95, seemingly good at recent
:11:35. > :11:39.times. So heavy colds, in the words of Buckingham Palace, an expectation
:11:40. > :11:43.that they will travel, and no undue concern here tonight that I can
:11:44. > :11:45.detect. All right, thank you very much.

:11:59. > :12:04.His case is due to be reconsidered next year.
:12:05. > :12:06.At least 31 people are known to have died
:12:07. > :12:09.in a series of explosions at a fireworks market in Mexico.
:12:10. > :12:12.Around 60 other people were injured, many with severe burns,
:12:13. > :12:21.The cause of the fire is unknown, but it's believed one stall
:12:22. > :12:25.caught fire before triggering a chain reaction of blasts.
:12:26. > :12:32.It's the third major fire at the market since 2005.
:12:33. > :12:35.NHS England has hit back at suggestions from some campaigners

:13:13. > :13:17.Local managers say nothing's finalised, but with maternity
:13:18. > :13:19.services recently reduced, these demonstrators claim
:13:20. > :13:26.We need a hospital that is going to support the population of Banbury,
:13:27. > :13:28.and I feel that reducing the services of Banbury
:13:29. > :13:34.and forcing people to go elsewhere is going to put lives at risk.
:13:35. > :13:37.I want the Horton to stay as it is and grow, really.
:13:38. > :13:40.Not to shrink, to get better and bigger.
:13:41. > :13:43.It's just one example of sustainability and transformation
:13:44. > :13:49.plans drawn up in every area of England, with local health
:13:50. > :13:51.and social-care leaders urged to do more

:13:54. > :13:55.Campaigners out trying to protect local hospital services
:13:56. > :14:03.The question is whether protests like this become more widespread.
:14:04. > :14:06.NHS leaders know they have to work hard
:14:07. > :14:10.to convince the public that changes could benefit patients.
:14:11. > :14:12.It's incumbent on those who are putting those proposals forward
:14:13. > :14:16.to be absolutely clear about what the benefits and risks
:14:17. > :14:19.of each proposed change are, because many communities
:14:20. > :14:23.will have some pretty difficult choices to make.
:14:24. > :14:27.What would you say to those who say this is a smoke screen for cuts
:14:28. > :14:33.There will always be people that think that.
:14:34. > :14:38.But actually, this is really about a proper conversation
:14:39. > :14:43.about how we improve the services, and in particular
:14:44. > :14:46.how we link up social care and the National Health Service.
:14:47. > :14:49.The local plan in Kent draws on pioneering work
:14:50. > :14:56.it sees GPs, the NHS and social care looking after patients together.
