:00:11. > :00:12.She says she was numb when she discovered

:00:25. > :00:27.The family of one the victims killed on Westminster Bridge speak

:00:28. > :00:35.He was an amazing individual who loved everyone,

:00:51. > :00:52.meet just days before historic Brexit talks are triggered,

:00:53. > :00:59.as Iraqi forces renew their offensive there's growing

:01:00. > :01:16.for the tempo of the military operation,

:01:17. > :01:19.but it isn't necessarily good for preserving civilian lives.

:01:20. > :01:22.Giving evidence, the surgeon accused of putting women through unnecessary

:01:23. > :02:01.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.

:02:02. > :02:04.The mother of Khalid Masood, the man behind the Westminster

:02:05. > :02:06.attacks, has expressed her anguish about the actions of her son.

:02:07. > :02:09.In a statement in the last hour, she said she did not

:02:10. > :02:12.condone what he'd done, or the beliefs that led him

:02:13. > :02:16.It emerged today that Masood had driven the car that

:02:17. > :02:34.The moment Khalid Masood began his attack, we now know that he was

:02:35. > :02:40.driving at more than 70 kph, drew the crowd, killing and injuring as

:02:41. > :02:45.he drove. -- over 70 mph. -- through the crowd. His mother has leased a

:02:46. > :02:47.statement, saying that she does not condone his actions or support his

:02:48. > :03:14.beliefs. Janet Ajao said: those victims included American

:03:15. > :03:20.couple Kurt Cochran and his wife, it had been their first visit in London

:03:21. > :03:23.and their first time ever out of the USA. They were celebrating their

:03:24. > :03:29.25th wedding anniversary. He was killed by being thrown to the

:03:30. > :03:33.pavement below. A single bunch of flowers marks where he fell. Melissa

:03:34. > :03:39.suffered multiple injuries and is still in hospital. Today, 13 members

:03:40. > :03:46.of their family spoke publicly. From Utah, they are a Mormon family, who

:03:47. > :03:50.have found strength in their faith. It is hard for most of its ear to

:03:51. > :03:54.imagine what it must be like to lose somebody in this way, can you give a

:03:55. > :04:00.sense of the impact on the family. It has brought us closer together.

:04:01. > :04:06.-- it is hard for most of us here to imagine. We love and support each

:04:07. > :04:10.other so much. It has made us that much stronger. Kurt Cochran ran a

:04:11. > :04:16.music studio back home. Enthusiastic supporter of local bands. Their

:04:17. > :04:20.assault was featured, they are about to get going right here! Tribute

:04:21. > :04:23.concerts have taken place in his honour. His family say that they

:04:24. > :04:29.have been comforted by the thousands of messages they have saved. What

:04:30. > :04:32.the families have shown today is what happens when you are suddenly

:04:33. > :04:35.affected by an event of this magnitude, that had brought with it

:04:36. > :04:42.trauma, grief, and for them, forgiveness. None of us harbour any

:04:43. > :04:51.ill will or harsh feelings towards this. We love our brother, we love

:04:52. > :04:55.what he brought to the world. Today, Tobias Ellwood was in parliament

:04:56. > :04:58.square to pay his respects and see the tribute. The Foreign Office

:04:59. > :05:03.minister had tried so hard to save the life of PC Keith Palmer last

:05:04. > :05:08.week. This was a chance for him to remember all of those killed.

:05:09. > :05:11.STUDIO: Let's speak to our Home Affairs Correspondent Daniel

:05:12. > :05:22.Daniel, what are you hearing about the investigation so far? It is not

:05:23. > :05:25.going on at the frenetic pace that it was last week when they were

:05:26. > :05:29.arresting all of the known associates of Khalid Masood, but you

:05:30. > :05:32.sense they are still making good progress. The BBC has been told that

:05:33. > :05:39.the police have established that Khalid Masood's car was captured on

:05:40. > :05:42.CCTV in the Westminster area before the attacks, not as he launched the

:05:43. > :05:46.attack but before, so detectives trying to work out whether that was

:05:47. > :05:51.some kind of reconnaissance or otherwise why was he driving around

:05:52. > :05:55.in the Westminster area. Release have said that communications that

:05:56. > :06:00.he had on that day are a main line of enquiry. They are making a direct

:06:01. > :06:04.appeal to the public, if you heard from the lead message, please come

:06:05. > :06:07.forward. That is because police are saying they are trying to establish

:06:08. > :06:12.what his state of mind was at the time of the attack. That said,

:06:13. > :06:16.police have rolled out at the moment saying they have no evidence that he

:06:17. > :06:21.discussed the attack with anyone else, no evidence he was radicalised

:06:22. > :06:25.in prison and no evidence of him communicating with associates in

:06:26. > :06:29.so-called Islamic State or Al-Qaeda, what they think that he had an

:06:30. > :06:36.interesting jihad, -- they think he had an interest in jihad, so this

:06:37. > :06:42.may be a violent Islamist inspired attack.

:06:43. > :06:44.And tonight Panorama has an in depth look at Khalid Masood,

:06:45. > :06:47.That's at half past seven, on BBC One.

:06:48. > :06:51.It's the start of a historic week for Britain.

:06:52. > :06:53.On Wednesday, Theresa May will trigger the Brexit process

:06:54. > :06:56.but that hasn't stopped the political row between the prime

:06:57. > :06:58.minister and Nicola Sturgeon over another independence

:06:59. > :07:01.They met in Glasgow today but apparently ended their hour-long

:07:02. > :07:07.Mrs May said this was a time for the whole of the UK

:07:08. > :07:10.But as our Scotland editor Sarah Smith reports,

:07:11. > :07:14.Nicola Sturgeon doesn't see it that way at all.

:07:15. > :07:21.Nicola Sturgeon did not see it that way, did she. She certainly did not,

:07:22. > :07:24.and I get the impression that she came away from the meeting a bit

:07:25. > :07:27.frustrated about the lack of detail that she is getting from the Prime

:07:28. > :07:31.Minister about the "Brexit" negotiations and also about any

:07:32. > :07:35.specific powers that may be transferred to the Scottish

:07:36. > :07:38.Parliament. The Prime Minister, who does have the power to block another

:07:39. > :07:46.referendum on Scottish independence, that she was very clear, saying now

:07:47. > :07:50.is not the time to discuss it. VOICEOVER: Theresa May knows that

:07:51. > :07:54.this could be awkward, she is here to talk about her Article 50 letter.

:07:55. > :07:58.She is here to press her demand for a referendum on independence. No

:07:59. > :08:03.handshakes, no press conference, did a couple of souvenir photographs but

:08:04. > :08:07.neither woman looks like they are enjoying it. By stark contrast,

:08:08. > :08:12.their first meeting, eight months ago, then it was called a good

:08:13. > :08:15.working relationship, now, Nicola Sturgeon says the PM has not

:08:16. > :08:18.listened to her on "Brexit", Theresa May says that she will reject any

:08:19. > :08:24.request for a vote on Scottish independence. My position is not

:08:25. > :08:27.going to change, now is not the time to be talking about a second

:08:28. > :08:31.independence referendum, because it would not be fair on the Scottish

:08:32. > :08:34.people to make them make that decision when the facts are not

:08:35. > :08:37.clear and also because now is the time when we need to pull together

:08:38. > :08:41.to make sure we get the best possible deal for the UK and

:08:42. > :08:45.clothing the people of Scotland. I'm told the meeting inside this hotel

:08:46. > :08:50.was businesslike, cordial, probably the longest meeting yet between

:08:51. > :08:53.them, the Scottish Government were expecting an offer of more powers

:08:54. > :08:57.for the Scottish parliament after "Brexit" but they say they got no

:08:58. > :09:00.detail on that. When Nicola Sturgeon told the Prime Minister how she

:09:01. > :09:04.plans to make a formal request for a Scottish referendum, the Prime

:09:05. > :09:09.Minister said simply, you know my position on that. The First Minister

:09:10. > :09:14.says Theresa May agreed, the shape of the "Brexit" deal should be clear

:09:15. > :09:19.in 18 to 24 months' time, which is when the Scottish Government want to

:09:20. > :09:24.hold the referendum. We both agree, now is not the time to ask people to

:09:25. > :09:30.make the choice, but since we both appear to be in agreement as to when

:09:31. > :09:33.the terms of Brexit will become clear on the timetable, that would

:09:34. > :09:37.underline my view that that is the right time. Visiting police

:09:38. > :09:41.Scotland, Theresa May announced a major counterterrorism exercise, the

:09:42. > :09:46.message, the importance of coordinating security across the UK.

:09:47. > :09:51.-- Police Scotland. When this great union of nations, sets its mind on

:09:52. > :09:56.something, and works together with determination, we are an unstoppable

:09:57. > :09:59.force. In a speech to staff at the Department for International the in

:10:00. > :10:05.East Kilbride, she said she wants to build a more United Nations. It is

:10:06. > :10:08.Scottish independence on the agenda at the Holyrood parliament tomorrow,

:10:09. > :10:13.where they will almost certainly vote to call for a second

:10:14. > :10:16.referendum. -- Department for International Development in East

:10:17. > :10:26.Kilbride. STUDIO: Let's speak to our Political

:10:27. > :10:31.Editor Laura Kuenssberg, who's in Westminster. Theresa May is about to

:10:32. > :10:35.embark on a period of wheeling and dealing, negotiating and bartering,

:10:36. > :10:39.with no less than 27 countries, all with different agendas and

:10:40. > :10:41.priorities. Very different populations and economies. All

:10:42. > :10:47.wanting something different from the UK. You might have thought that the

:10:48. > :10:51.easy part would be dealing with relations at home, between different

:10:52. > :10:54.parts of the UK. Well, not a bit of it, it is clear from today's meeting

:10:55. > :10:58.that neither Nicola Sturgeon or Theresa May is in any mood to back

:10:59. > :11:02.down, they fundamentally disagree on the notion of whether or not Scots

:11:03. > :11:10.should have another vote on going for independence during this process

:11:11. > :11:13.of upheaval. What too many people looks like opportunity, too. For

:11:14. > :11:17.Theresa May this is clear, it is a problem for her politically that is

:11:18. > :11:21.going to hang around for quite some time. It is part of a patchwork of

:11:22. > :11:25.problems which face her here, before she even gets to the negotiating

:11:26. > :11:30.table in Brussels. Today, Labour set out its list of wrecks it demands,

:11:31. > :11:33.Ukip did the same, warning her that they will hold her feet to the fire

:11:34. > :11:40.if there is backsliding. In private, this pressure on her inside the Tory

:11:41. > :11:43.party too. Theresa May faces problems and challenges and

:11:44. > :11:48.opportunities right now that no Prime Minister has realistically

:11:49. > :11:51.faced in generations. Scotland is one of them that is hugely

:11:52. > :11:53.significant but it is clear in number ten that it is not the only

:11:54. > :12:05.issue. Northern Ireland's political parties

:12:06. > :12:08.have failed to meet the deadline to form a power sharing

:12:09. > :12:10.government at Stormont. Three weeks of talks couldn't bridge

:12:11. > :12:12.the deep divides between the Democratic Unionist Party

:12:13. > :12:14.and Sinn Fein. The secretary of state

:12:15. > :12:15.for Northern Ireland, who has the power to impose direct

:12:16. > :12:18.rule from Westminster, But it's not clear if of

:12:19. > :12:22.when powersharing will return. Here's our Ireland

:12:23. > :12:29.correspondent Chris Buckler. VOICEOVER: There has been a lot of

:12:30. > :12:34.talk in Northern Ireland about restoring power-sharing but at times

:12:35. > :12:38.it has felt like Sinn Fein and the DUP have been speaking a very

:12:39. > :12:41.different language. Much of the funding for this class for migrant

:12:42. > :12:48.workers in Dungannon comes from storm on. With no government, no

:12:49. > :12:52.budget. That means this community group cannot be sure how much money

:12:53. > :12:57.they will have, once the new financial year begins, just next

:12:58. > :13:00.week. If there is no funding coming through, it would mean imminent

:13:01. > :13:06.closure within two months, and all jobs lost. That is how serious it

:13:07. > :13:09.is. Those concerns about budgets retch across all departments,

:13:10. > :13:14.including health and education. At 4pm, the deadline for an agreement,

:13:15. > :13:17.the politicians were not electing a first and Deputy First Minister, the

:13:18. > :13:31.assembly chamber was empty. I think there are a short few weeks

:13:32. > :13:34.in order to resolve matters. The reason I say that is

:13:35. > :13:36.because of this issue, the stark issue in relation

:13:37. > :13:38.to public services here in Northern Ireland,

:13:39. > :13:40.and the lack of a budget The Northern Ireland Secretary has

:13:41. > :13:43.limited number of options, he can call another election

:13:44. > :13:46.but he has indicated However, because he has to call

:13:47. > :13:50.a vote within a reasonable time period, that does allow more time

:13:51. > :13:52.for further talks. The other option is what is known

:13:53. > :13:55.as direct rule, whether Westminster government would take control

:13:56. > :13:58.of the running of Northern Ireland Last week at Martin McGuinness'

:13:59. > :14:02.funeral, the leader of the DUP and Sinn Fein did reach out

:14:03. > :14:05.to each other. But any signs of friendship

:14:06. > :14:13.were missing at Stormont, today. When Arlene Foster and Michelle

:14:14. > :14:15.O'Neill spoke separately. There is a gulf between the parties

:14:16. > :14:18.on a whole range of issues from Sinn Fein's demand

:14:19. > :14:20.for legislation to give official status to the Irish language to that

:14:21. > :14:23.thorny old problem of how to recognise and deal with

:14:24. > :14:26.Northern Ireland's troubled past. That all leaves major worries

:14:27. > :14:29.about the future of power-sharing and in places like this Dungannon

:14:30. > :14:32.community group, another generation affected

:14:33. > :14:45.by Northern Ireland's old divides. A surgeon, who's accused of carrying

:14:46. > :14:47.out unnecessary operations in order to earn extra cash,

:14:48. > :14:50.has been giving evidence in court. Ian Paterson denies 20 counts

:14:51. > :14:52.of unlawfully and maliciously wounding ten patients

:14:53. > :14:59.between 1997 and 2011. Our Midlands Correspondent

:15:00. > :15:14.Sima Kotecha is at Well, this trial has been going on

:15:15. > :15:17.for more than a month now. Ian Paterson took the stand for the

:15:18. > :15:24.first time this afternoon and told the jury he'd been practising

:15:25. > :15:29.medicine since 1981. In a statement, he said any suggestions I carried

:15:30. > :15:35.out completely necessary breast operations for financial gain were

:15:36. > :15:40.up orange. Ian Paterson, the breast surgeon accused of carrying out

:15:41. > :15:45.unnecessary operations in the West Midlands. Nottingham Crown Court, he

:15:46. > :15:52.is on trial for causing grievous bodily harm to ten patients over a

:15:53. > :15:53.14 year period. Today, the 59-year-old took the stand. He told

:15:54. > :16:25.the jury not ... Over the last few weeks, the

:16:26. > :16:30.court has heard the surgeon operated unnecessarily on patients at two

:16:31. > :16:36.private hospitals. The prosecution alleges his motives were obscure and

:16:37. > :16:40.may have included a desire to earn money. Ian Paterson denies 20 counts

:16:41. > :16:45.of wounding with intent. The trial continues.

:17:12. > :17:21.after his last appearance for his country.

:17:22. > :17:24.Iraqi forces are intensifying their assault against so called

:17:25. > :17:28.Islamic State, as they attempt to drive them out of western Mosul.

:17:29. > :17:31.They're deploying helicopter gunships and crude rocket launchers

:17:32. > :17:37.But thousands of people are fleeing the city claiming civilian

:17:38. > :17:41.are being killed because the assault is too indiscriminate.

:17:42. > :17:44.With the city still divided between IS and the Iraqi army,

:17:45. > :17:48.our Middle East editor Jeremy Bowen is in western Mosul.

:18:11. > :18:20.They seem confident they won't get shot down.

:18:21. > :18:24.And every day a few thousand more people come walking out of the areas

:18:25. > :18:32.of Mosul still held by the jihadists who call themselves Islamic State.

:18:33. > :18:35.Many said IS used them as human shields, shooting out from the cover

:18:36. > :18:47.But the response, more air strikes, horrified them.

:18:48. > :18:51.TRANSLATION: They destroyed our homes, our cars, everything.

:18:52. > :19:02.Entire families are gone, they are under the rubble.

:19:03. > :19:19.Some very sophisticated modern weapons are in this fight.

:19:20. > :19:30.Locally made rockets used over a short range, a blunt instrument.

:19:31. > :19:38.It might be good for the tempo of the military operation but it

:19:39. > :19:43.isn't necessarily good for preserving civilian lives.

:19:44. > :19:46.But they want to win this battle and they're

:19:47. > :19:54.Most of the people arriving in government-held territory

:19:55. > :20:02.Many said IS fighters forced themselves into their homes.

:20:03. > :20:06.Nine of this woman's family were killed in a big raid on the 17th.

:20:07. > :20:09.She said she wasn't escaping the jihadists but air strikes that

:21:20. > :21:22.The Middle Eastern state of Qatar said it is optimistic

:21:23. > :21:25.about the future of the British economy and that the UK leaving

:22:04. > :22:06.in installing high-speed broadband lines.

:22:07. > :22:09.It's a record fine, and relates to BT's Openreach division,

:23:14. > :23:16.for carrying huge amounts of information, from office

:23:17. > :23:21.to the exchange, from one office to another office,

:23:22. > :23:25.even from mobile phone masts, carrying our calls and information.

:23:26. > :23:28.And BT's being accused of delaying up to a year to install these cables

:23:29. > :23:31.and then trying to wriggle out of responsibility

:23:32. > :23:39.So, for not paying up, BT faces a ?42 million fine.

:23:40. > :23:43.There is now a compensation bill of ?300 million which has to be met

:23:44. > :23:48.and an extra ?300,000 fine for keeping back information.

:23:49. > :23:51.It's the biggest fine Ofcom have ever levied,

:23:52. > :23:54.and it comes at a time when Openreach is under enormous

:23:55. > :23:57.pressure to not only maintain existing network infrastructure

:23:58. > :24:00.but they also need to invest in the next generation

:24:01. > :24:02.of technology, which is fibre, and that pressure is, obviously,

:24:03. > :24:06.causing issues for the group, in terms of being able to deliver.

:24:07. > :24:09.BT says it's sorry, it's already agreed that Openreach should be run

:26:17. > :26:17.We know that they merit our investment.

:26:18. > :26:21.But the first question we always ask is can they sport have access

:26:22. > :26:22.to support from and resources from other sources?

:26:23. > :26:26.However, UK Sport will still support the athletes until Tokyo 2020

:26:32. > :26:35.Rio was a big success story for wheelchair tennis.

:26:36. > :26:41.So we should be looking at building on that,

:26:42. > :26:43.creating more opportunities, inspiring more people,

:26:44. > :26:46.getting them ready for 2024, really, in the long-term plan,

:26:47. > :26:49.and this will dissuade a lot of people from actually wanting

:26:50. > :26:52.to do that because they don't think financially they can do it.

:26:53. > :26:55.On court, the sport continues to grow and get more and more

:26:56. > :26:59.exposure and the world stage, with players like Novak Djokovic

:27:00. > :27:08.And the trophies, medals and silverware keep multiplying

:27:09. > :27:18.at least for this generation of British players.

:27:19. > :27:33.After a Bellini 's start, most of us brightened up nicely but some did

:27:34. > :27:38.not. The cloud persistent across the East of England, 7 degrees,

:27:39. > :27:41.distinctly chilly. This was the drab scene at Bridlington this afternoon.

:27:42. > :27:45.For most of the rest of us, it was another glorious day, no more so

:27:46. > :27:49.than across Highland Scotland. It again, that's where the highest

:27:50. > :27:55.temperatures were, 19 degrees in some spots. This was the view

:27:56. > :28:00.westwards in Ayrshire, a fantastic evening here, and a dry evening

:28:01. > :28:06.everywhere. Overnight tonight, the low cloud becomes extensive, misty

:28:07. > :28:10.in eastern spots. Where the skies are clear, it will be cold.

:28:11. > :28:18.Temperatures dipping down to as low as minus two, just where we saw the

:28:19. > :28:22.highest temperatures in the daytime. In the south-west, some showers

:28:23. > :28:26.pushing into Wales, and central areas. One or two showers in

:28:27. > :28:31.Northern Ireland going into the direction of Scotland. More cloud in

:28:32. > :28:37.Scotland tomorrow so it will be a lot cooler than it was today. The

:28:38. > :28:42.odd shower pushing through the Midlands into eastern England but

:28:43. > :28:47.many places will avoid the showers and it will be worn with mid to high

:28:48. > :28:50.teens where it brightens up. There should be brightness across South

:28:51. > :28:57.Wales and England but there is more rain in the evening. It will turn

:28:58. > :29:01.drab tomorrow night and as we go into Wednesday, some heavier rain

:29:02. > :29:06.turning up into northern areas. Further south and east, it should

:29:07. > :29:10.stay nice and dry, albeit cloudy. Temperatures up to the mid-teens.
