:00:28. > :00:30.The family of one the victims killed on Westminster Bridge speak

:00:31. > :00:38.He was an amazing individual who loved everyone,

:00:53. > :00:55.meet just days before historic Brexit talks are triggered,

:00:56. > :01:02.as Iraqi forces renew their offensive there's growing

:01:03. > :01:19.for the tempo of the military operation,

:01:20. > :01:22.but it isn't necessarily good for preserving civilian lives.

:01:25. > :02:03.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six.

:02:04. > :02:06.The mother of Khalid Masood, the man behind the Westminster

:02:07. > :02:09.attacks, has expressed her anguish about the actions of her son.

:02:10. > :02:12.In a statement in the last hour, she said she did not

:02:13. > :02:14.condone what he'd done, or the beliefs that led him

:02:15. > :02:19.It emerged today that Masood had driven the car that

:02:20. > :02:36.The moment Khalid Masood began his attack, we now know that he was

:02:37. > :02:43.driving at more than 70 kph, drew the crowd, killing and injuring as

:02:44. > :02:48.he drove. -- over 70 mph. -- through the crowd. His mother has leased a

:02:49. > :02:49.statement, saying that she does not condone his actions or support his

:02:50. > :03:17.beliefs. Janet Ajao said: those victims included American

:03:18. > :03:23.couple Kurt Cochran and his wife, it had been their first visit in London

:03:24. > :03:26.and their first time ever out of the USA. They were celebrating their

:03:27. > :03:31.25th wedding anniversary. He was killed by being thrown to the

:03:32. > :03:36.pavement below. A single bunch of flowers marks where he fell. Melissa

:03:37. > :03:41.suffered multiple injuries and is still in hospital. Today, 13 members

:03:42. > :03:49.of their family spoke publicly. From Utah, they are a Mormon family, who

:03:50. > :03:52.have found strength in their faith. It is hard for most of its ear to

:03:53. > :03:57.imagine what it must be like to lose somebody in this way, can you give a

:03:58. > :04:03.sense of the impact on the family. It has brought us closer together.

:04:04. > :04:09.-- it is hard for most of us here to imagine. We love and support each

:04:10. > :04:13.other so much. It has made us that much stronger. Kurt Cochran ran a

:04:14. > :04:18.music studio back home. Enthusiastic supporter of local bands. Their

:04:19. > :04:23.assault was featured, they are about to get going right here! Tribute

:04:24. > :04:26.concerts have taken place in his honour. His family say that they

:04:27. > :04:31.have been comforted by the thousands of messages they have saved. What

:04:32. > :04:34.the families have shown today is what happens when you are suddenly

:04:35. > :04:38.affected by an event of this magnitude, that had brought with it

:04:39. > :04:44.trauma, grief, and for them, forgiveness. None of us harbour any

:04:45. > :04:53.ill will or harsh feelings towards this. We love our brother, we love

:04:54. > :04:57.what he brought to the world. Today, Tobias Ellwood was in parliament

:04:58. > :05:00.square to pay his respects and see the tribute. The Foreign Office

:05:01. > :05:05.minister had tried so hard to save the life of PC Keith Palmer last

:05:06. > :05:11.week. This was a chance for him to remember all of those killed.

:05:12. > :05:13.STUDIO: Let's speak to our Home Affairs Correspondent Daniel

:05:14. > :05:25.Daniel, what are you hearing about the investigation so far? It is not

:05:26. > :05:28.going on at the frenetic pace that it was last week when they were

:05:29. > :05:31.arresting all of the known associates of Khalid Masood, but you

:05:32. > :05:35.sense they are still making good progress. The BBC has been told that

:05:36. > :05:41.the police have established that Khalid Masood's car was captured on

:05:42. > :05:45.CCTV in the Westminster area before the attacks, not as he launched the

:05:46. > :05:49.attack but before, so detectives trying to work out whether that was

:05:50. > :05:54.some kind of reconnaissance or otherwise why was he driving around

:05:55. > :05:58.in the Westminster area. Release have said that communications that

:05:59. > :06:03.he had on that day are a main line of enquiry. They are making a direct

:06:04. > :06:07.appeal to the public, if you heard from the lead message, please come

:06:08. > :06:10.forward. That is because police are saying they are trying to establish

:06:11. > :06:15.what his state of mind was at the time of the attack. That said,

:06:16. > :06:19.police have rolled out at the moment saying they have no evidence that he

:06:20. > :06:24.discussed the attack with anyone else, no evidence he was radicalised

:06:25. > :06:28.in prison and no evidence of him communicating with associates in

:06:29. > :06:32.so-called Islamic State or Al-Qaeda, what they think that he had an

:06:33. > :06:38.interesting jihad, -- they think he had an interest in jihad, so this

:06:39. > :06:45.may be a violent Islamist inspired attack.

:06:46. > :06:47.And tonight Panorama has an in depth look at Khalid Masood,

:06:48. > :06:50.That's at half past seven, on BBC One.

:06:51. > :06:54.It's the start of a historic week for Britain.

:06:55. > :06:56.On Wednesday, Theresa May will trigger the Brexit process

:06:57. > :06:59.but that hasn't stopped the political row between the prime

:07:00. > :07:00.minister and Nicola Sturgeon over another independence

:07:01. > :07:04.They met in Glasgow today but apparently ended their hour-long

:07:05. > :07:09.Mrs May said this was a time for the whole of the UK

:07:10. > :07:12.But as our Scotland editor Sarah Smith reports,

:07:13. > :07:17.Nicola Sturgeon doesn't see it that way at all.

:07:18. > :07:23.Nicola Sturgeon did not see it that way, did she. She certainly did not,

:07:24. > :07:27.and I get the impression that she came away from the meeting a bit

:07:28. > :07:30.frustrated about the lack of detail that she is getting from the Prime

:07:31. > :07:34.Minister about the "Brexit" negotiations and also about any

:07:35. > :07:37.specific powers that may be transferred to the Scottish

:07:38. > :07:41.Parliament. The Prime Minister, who does have the power to block another

:07:42. > :07:49.referendum on Scottish independence, that she was very clear, saying now

:07:50. > :07:53.is not the time to discuss it. VOICEOVER: Theresa May knows that

:07:54. > :07:57.this could be awkward, she is here to talk about her Article 50 letter.

:07:58. > :08:01.She is here to press her demand for a referendum on independence. No

:08:02. > :08:06.handshakes, no press conference, did a couple of souvenir photographs but

:08:07. > :08:10.neither woman looks like they are enjoying it. By stark contrast,

:08:11. > :08:14.their first meeting, eight months ago, then it was called a good

:08:15. > :08:18.working relationship, now, Nicola Sturgeon says the PM has not

:08:19. > :08:21.listened to her on "Brexit", Theresa May says that she will reject any

:08:22. > :08:27.request for a vote on Scottish independence. My position is not

:08:28. > :08:30.going to change, now is not the time to be talking about a second

:08:31. > :08:34.independence referendum, because it would not be fair on the Scottish

:08:35. > :08:37.people to make them make that decision when the facts are not

:08:38. > :08:40.clear and also because now is the time when we need to pull together

:08:41. > :08:43.to make sure we get the best possible deal for the UK and

:08:44. > :08:48.clothing the people of Scotland. I'm told the meeting inside this hotel

:08:49. > :08:53.was businesslike, cordial, probably the longest meeting yet between

:08:54. > :08:56.them, the Scottish Government were expecting an offer of more powers

:08:57. > :09:00.for the Scottish parliament after "Brexit" but they say they got no

:09:01. > :09:03.detail on that. When Nicola Sturgeon told the Prime Minister how she

:09:04. > :09:07.plans to make a formal request for a Scottish referendum, the Prime

:09:08. > :09:12.Minister said simply, you know my position on that. The First Minister

:09:13. > :09:17.says Theresa May agreed, the shape of the "Brexit" deal should be clear

:09:18. > :09:22.in 18 to 24 months' time, which is when the Scottish Government want to

:09:23. > :09:26.hold the referendum. We both agree, now is not the time to ask people to

:09:27. > :09:32.make the choice, but since we both appear to be in agreement as to when

:09:33. > :09:36.the terms of Brexit will become clear on the timetable, that would

:09:37. > :09:39.underline my view that that is the right time. Visiting police

:09:40. > :09:43.Scotland, Theresa May announced a major counterterrorism exercise, the

:09:44. > :09:48.message, the importance of coordinating security across the UK.

:09:49. > :09:53.-- Police Scotland. When this great union of nations, sets its mind on

:09:54. > :09:59.something, and works together with determination, we are an unstoppable

:10:00. > :10:02.force. In a speech to staff at the Department for International the in

:10:03. > :10:07.East Kilbride, she said she wants to build a more United Nations. It is

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

:10:11. > :10:15.where they will almost certainly vote to call for a second

:10:16. > :10:19.referendum. -- Department for International Development in East

:10:20. > :10:29.Kilbride. STUDIO: Let's speak to our Political

:10:30. > :10:34.Editor Laura Kuenssberg, who's in Westminster. Theresa May is about to

:10:35. > :10:37.embark on a period of wheeling and dealing, negotiating and bartering,

:10:38. > :10:41.with no less than 27 countries, all with different agendas and

:10:42. > :10:44.priorities. Very different populations and economies. All

:10:45. > :10:50.wanting something different from the UK. You might have thought that the

:10:51. > :10:54.easy part would be dealing with relations at home, between different

:10:55. > :10:57.parts of the UK. Well, not a bit of it, it is clear from today's meeting

:10:58. > :11:01.that neither Nicola Sturgeon or Theresa May is in any mood to back

:11:02. > :11:05.down, they fundamentally disagree on the notion of whether or not Scots

:11:06. > :11:12.should have another vote on going for independence during this process

:11:13. > :11:16.of upheaval. What too many people looks like opportunity, too. For

:11:17. > :11:19.Theresa May this is clear, it is a problem for her politically that is

:11:20. > :11:24.going to hang around for quite some time. It is part of a patchwork of

:11:25. > :11:28.problems which face her here, before she even gets to the negotiating

:11:29. > :11:33.table in Brussels. Today, Labour set out its list of wrecks it demands,

:11:34. > :11:36.Ukip did the same, warning her that they will hold her feet to the fire

:11:37. > :11:43.if there is backsliding. In private, this pressure on her inside the Tory

:11:44. > :11:46.party too. Theresa May faces problems and challenges and

:11:47. > :11:51.opportunities right now that no Prime Minister has realistically

:11:52. > :11:54.faced in generations. Scotland is one of them that is hugely

:11:55. > :11:56.significant but it is clear in number ten that it is not the only

:11:57. > :12:08.issue. Northern Ireland's political parties

:12:09. > :12:10.have failed to meet the deadline to form a power sharing

:12:11. > :12:12.government at Stormont. Three weeks of talks couldn't bridge

:12:13. > :12:15.the deep divides between the Democratic Unionist Party

:12:16. > :12:16.and Sinn Fein. The secretary of state

:12:17. > :12:18.for Northern Ireland, who has the power to impose direct

:12:19. > :12:21.rule from Westminster, But it's not clear if of

:12:22. > :12:25.when powersharing will return. Here's our Ireland

:12:26. > :12:32.correspondent Chris Buckler. VOICEOVER: There has been a lot of

:12:33. > :12:37.talk in Northern Ireland about restoring power-sharing but at times

:12:38. > :12:40.it has felt like Sinn Fein and the DUP have been speaking a very

:12:41. > :12:43.different language. Much of the funding for this class for migrant

:12:44. > :12:51.workers in Dungannon comes from storm on. With no government, no

:12:52. > :12:55.budget. That means this community group cannot be sure how much money

:12:56. > :13:00.they will have, once the new financial year begins, just next

:13:01. > :13:03.week. If there is no funding coming through, it would mean imminent

:13:04. > :13:08.closure within two months, and all jobs lost. That is how serious it

:13:09. > :13:12.is. Those concerns about budgets retch across all departments,

:13:13. > :13:16.including health and education. At 4pm, the deadline for an agreement,

:13:17. > :13:20.the politicians were not electing a first and Deputy First Minister, the

:13:21. > :13:33.assembly chamber was empty. I think there are a short few weeks

:13:34. > :13:36.in order to resolve matters. The reason I say that is

:13:37. > :13:39.because of this issue, the stark issue in relation

:13:40. > :13:41.to public services here in Northern Ireland,

:13:42. > :13:43.and the lack of a budget The Northern Ireland Secretary has

:13:44. > :13:46.limited number of options, he can call another election

:13:47. > :13:48.but he has indicated However, because he has to call

:13:49. > :13:53.a vote within a reasonable time period, that does allow more time

:13:54. > :13:55.for further talks. The other option is what is known

:13:56. > :13:58.as direct rule, whether Westminster government would take control

:13:59. > :14:00.of the running of Northern Ireland Last week at Martin McGuinness'

:14:01. > :14:05.funeral, the leader of the DUP and Sinn Fein did reach out

:14:06. > :14:08.to each other. But any signs of friendship

:14:09. > :14:16.were missing at Stormont, today. When Arlene Foster and Michelle

:14:17. > :14:18.O'Neill spoke separately. There is a gulf between the parties

:14:19. > :14:21.on a whole range of issues from Sinn Fein's demand

:14:22. > :14:23.for legislation to give official status to the Irish language to that

:14:24. > :14:26.thorny old problem of how to recognise and deal with

:14:27. > :14:28.Northern Ireland's troubled past. That all leaves major worries

:14:29. > :14:32.about the future of power-sharing and in places like this Dungannon

:14:33. > :14:35.community group, another generation affected

:14:36. > :14:48.by Northern Ireland's old divides. A surgeon, who's accused of carrying

:14:49. > :14:50.out unnecessary operations in order to earn extra cash,

:14:51. > :14:53.has been giving evidence in court. Ian Paterson denies 20 counts

:14:54. > :14:55.of unlawfully and maliciously wounding ten patients

:14:56. > :15:02.between 1997 and 2011. Our Midlands Correspondent

:15:03. > :15:16.Sima Kotecha is at Well, this trial has been going on

:15:17. > :15:19.for more than a month now. Ian Paterson took the stand for the

:15:20. > :15:26.first time this afternoon and told the jury he'd been practising

:15:27. > :15:32.medicine since 1981. In a statement, he said any suggestions I carried

:15:33. > :15:38.out completely necessary breast operations for financial gain were

:15:39. > :15:43.up orange. Ian Paterson, the breast surgeon accused of carrying out

:15:44. > :15:48.unnecessary operations in the West Midlands. Nottingham Crown Court, he

:15:49. > :15:54.is on trial for causing grievous bodily harm to ten patients over a

:15:55. > :15:56.14 year period. Today, the 59-year-old took the stand. He told

:15:57. > :16:28.the jury not ... Over the last few weeks, the

:16:29. > :16:33.court has heard the surgeon operated unnecessarily on patients at two

:16:34. > :16:39.private hospitals. The prosecution alleges his motives were obscure and

:16:40. > :16:43.may have included a desire to earn money. Ian Paterson denies 20 counts

:16:44. > :16:48.of wounding with intent. The trial continues.

:17:15. > :17:24.after his last appearance for his country.

:17:25. > :17:27.Iraqi forces are intensifying their assault against so called

:17:28. > :17:31.Islamic State, as they attempt to drive them out of western Mosul.

:17:32. > :17:33.They're deploying helicopter gunships and crude rocket launchers

:17:34. > :17:39.But thousands of people are fleeing the city claiming civilian

:17:40. > :17:43.are being killed because the assault is too indiscriminate.

:17:44. > :17:47.With the city still divided between IS and the Iraqi army,

:17:48. > :17:50.our Middle East editor Jeremy Bowen is in western Mosul.

:18:14. > :18:23.They seem confident they won't get shot down.

:18:24. > :18:26.And every day a few thousand more people come walking out of the areas

:18:27. > :18:35.of Mosul still held by the jihadists who call themselves Islamic State.

:18:36. > :18:38.Many said IS used them as human shields, shooting out from the cover

:18:39. > :18:50.But the response, more air strikes, horrified them.

:18:51. > :18:53.TRANSLATION: They destroyed our homes, our cars, everything.

:18:54. > :19:04.Entire families are gone, they are under the rubble.

:19:05. > :19:22.Some very sophisticated modern weapons are in this fight.

:19:23. > :19:33.Locally made rockets used over a short range, a blunt instrument.

:19:34. > :19:41.It might be good for the tempo of the military operation but it

:19:42. > :19:46.isn't necessarily good for preserving civilian lives.

:19:47. > :19:48.But they want to win this battle and they're

:19:49. > :19:57.Most of the people arriving in government-held territory

:19:58. > :20:05.Many said IS fighters forced themselves into their homes.

:20:06. > :20:09.Nine of this woman's family were killed in a big raid on the 17th.

:20:10. > :20:12.She said she wasn't escaping the jihadists but air strikes that

:21:04. > :21:15.It might be too late to put this country back together.

:21:16. > :21:18.One of the largest investors in the UK has committed ?5 billion

:21:23. > :21:24.The Middle Eastern state of Qatar said it is optimistic

:21:25. > :21:27.about the future of the British economy and that the UK leaving

:22:00. > :22:03.BT has been fined ?42 million by the telecoms regulator Ofcom,

:22:04. > :22:05.for failing to pay proper compensation for delays

:22:06. > :22:08.in installing high-speed broadband lines.

:22:09. > :22:12.It's a record fine, and relates to BT's Openreach division,

:23:20. > :23:23.to the exchange, from one office to another office,

:23:24. > :23:27.even from mobile phone masts, carrying our calls and information.

:23:28. > :23:31.And BT's being accused of delaying up to a year to install these cables

:23:32. > :23:33.and then trying to wriggle out of responsibility

:23:34. > :23:42.So, for not paying up, BT faces a ?42 million fine.

:23:43. > :23:46.There is now a compensation bill of ?300 million which has to be met

:23:47. > :23:50.and an extra ?300,000 fine for keeping back information.

:23:51. > :23:54.It's the biggest fine Ofcom have ever levied,

:24:01. > :24:02.but they also need to invest in the next generation

:24:03. > :24:05.of technology, which is fibre, and that pressure is, obviously,

:24:06. > :24:09.causing issues for the group, in terms of being able to deliver.

:24:10. > :24:12.BT says it's sorry, it's already agreed that Openreach should be run

:26:20. > :26:23.But the first question we always ask is can they sport have access

:26:24. > :26:25.to support from and resources from other sources?

:26:26. > :26:29.However, UK Sport will still support the athletes until Tokyo 2020

:26:47. > :26:49.getting them ready for 2024, really, in the long-term plan,

:26:50. > :26:52.and this will dissuade a lot of people from actually wanting

:26:53. > :26:55.to do that because they don't think financially they can do it.

:26:56. > :26:58.On court, the sport continues to grow and get more and more

:26:59. > :27:01.exposure and the world stage, with players like Novak Djokovic

:27:02. > :27:11.And the trophies, medals and silverware keep multiplying

:27:12. > :27:21.at least for this generation of British players.

:27:22. > :27:35.After a Bellini 's start, most of us brightened up nicely but some did

:27:36. > :27:40.not. The cloud persistent across the East of England, 7 degrees,

:27:41. > :27:44.distinctly chilly. This was the drab scene at Bridlington this afternoon.

:27:45. > :27:48.For most of the rest of us, it was another glorious day, no more so

:27:49. > :27:51.than across Highland Scotland. It again, that's where the highest

:27:52. > :27:57.temperatures were, 19 degrees in some spots. This was the view

:27:58. > :28:03.westwards in Ayrshire, a fantastic evening here, and a dry evening

:28:04. > :28:09.everywhere. Overnight tonight, the low cloud becomes extensive, misty

:28:10. > :28:13.in eastern spots. Where the skies are clear, it will be cold.

:28:14. > :28:21.Temperatures dipping down to as low as minus two, just where we saw the

:28:22. > :28:25.highest temperatures in the daytime. In the south-west, some showers

:28:26. > :28:29.pushing into Wales, and central areas. One or two showers in

:28:30. > :28:34.Northern Ireland going into the direction of Scotland. More cloud in

:28:35. > :28:40.Scotland tomorrow so it will be a lot cooler than it was today. The

:28:45. > :28:50.many places will avoid the showers and it will be worn with mid to high

:28:51. > :28:53.teens where it brightens up. There should be brightness across South

:28:54. > :29:00.Wales and England but there is more rain in the evening. It will turn

:29:01. > :29:03.drab tomorrow night and as we go into Wednesday, some heavier rain

:29:04. > :29:09.turning up into northern areas. Further south and east, it should

:29:10. > :29:13.stay nice and dry, albeit cloudy. Temperatures up to the mid-teens.
