:02:08. > :02:11.The Chancellor Philip Hammond has put Britain's future economic

:02:12. > :02:16.prosperity centre stage in any Brexit deal.

:02:17. > :02:19.In particular Mr Hammond called for a "jobs first" settlement.

:02:20. > :02:21.He also wants immigration to be managed but not

:02:22. > :02:27.Labour says the Chancellor is distancing himself

:02:28. > :02:29.from the Prime Minister's tough line on Brexit, accusing the cabinet

:02:30. > :02:35.The Chancellor's comments come on a day when the Governor

:02:36. > :02:37.of the Bank of England has warned of the risks of the

:02:38. > :02:45.Here's our economics editor Kamal Ahmed.

:02:46. > :02:52.A year on from the referendum and cars waiting in sunny Southampton

:02:53. > :02:55.for a journey to the continent of Europe, exports to the European

:02:56. > :02:59.Union like these are a key driver of our economy, an economy that the

:03:00. > :03:05.Chancellor said would now be at the heart of those complicated Brexit

:03:06. > :03:07.negotiations. Speaking at the Mansion house in central London

:03:08. > :03:14.Philip Hammond said without a flexible deal with the EU the

:03:15. > :03:19.economy could be at risk. When the British people voted last June and

:03:20. > :03:24.they did not vote to become poorer or less secure. They did vote to

:03:25. > :03:29.leave the EU and we will leave the EU, but it must be done in a way

:03:30. > :03:36.that works for Britain. In a way that prioritises British jobs and

:03:37. > :03:39.underpins Britain's prosperity. Alongside Mr Hammond today the

:03:40. > :03:42.governor of the Bank of England. He said that Brexit was likely to make

:03:43. > :03:48.people poorer and that they would need to be a transition period after

:03:49. > :03:52.the completion of the Brexit process in 2019. In Monetary Policy

:03:53. > :03:55.Committee prevent weak or real income growth that is likely to

:03:56. > :03:59.accompany the transition to new trading arrangements with the EU. It

:04:00. > :04:04.can support households and businesses as they adjust such

:04:05. > :04:07.profound change. The two great economic offices of state, here is

:04:08. > :04:11.the Bank of England and about two miles down the road that way the

:04:12. > :04:18.Treasury, and the leaders of those two institutions I think came

:04:19. > :04:21.together to date to make a big point about Brexit up of the economic

:04:22. > :04:26.wealth of Britain First, they both said, even if that means some

:04:27. > :04:31.sacrifices on those controversial issues of sovereignty and strict

:04:32. > :04:37.controls on immigration. Another port, another city, Belfast.

:04:38. > :04:42.Mr Hammond and Mark Carney spoke about struggling consumers are weary

:04:43. > :04:46.of austerity command shoppers today admitted that they were feeling the

:04:47. > :04:51.pinch. I think things maybe are going up in price a wee bit, and

:04:52. > :04:54.obviously if wages aren't going up people will be feeling the pinch

:04:55. > :04:57.that bit more. At the moment I haven't really seen much of a

:04:58. > :05:03.difference, there is a lot more offers and things in supermarkets. I

:05:04. > :05:07.think they have gone up, they don't match wages, to be honest. Higher

:05:08. > :05:11.prices, Brexit, the need for a good deal. There were plenty of warnings

:05:12. > :05:14.today but the economy has been far stronger than people expected since

:05:15. > :05:17.the referendum. I don't think there is any doubt

:05:18. > :05:23.that since the Brexit referendum the pound has fallen. Now, it is a glass

:05:24. > :05:26.half full or half empty. Clearly that has meant there is higher

:05:27. > :05:29.inflation and that has had a knock-on effect for real incomes but

:05:30. > :05:34.on the other hand it has been a much-needed boost to exports, we

:05:35. > :05:37.really needed that boost because the currency was overvalued. It was a

:05:38. > :05:41.day for stepping back and taking the wider view on the economy. An

:05:42. > :05:44.economy for consumers so uncertain, Mr Carney said there would be no

:05:45. > :05:51.interest rate rises in the near future. Sunny today, yes, but there

:05:52. > :05:56.could be more squally weatherhead. Kamal Ahmed, BBC News. -- squally

:05:57. > :05:58.weather ahead. Our deputy political

:05:59. > :06:05.editor John Pienaar He's accusing the council of

:06:06. > :06:10.distancing himself from the rest of the Cabinet. Fair comment? Philip

:06:11. > :06:15.Hammond said nothing to direct stomach flipped stated policy but he

:06:16. > :06:19.was confronting the ambitions and rhetoric of Brexiteers in the Tory

:06:20. > :06:23.party Amber Campbell are very directly. He has long been the

:06:24. > :06:27.Chaplain-in-Chief of a gentle and gradual break with the European

:06:28. > :06:30.Union and has seemed to be emboldened by the weakening of

:06:31. > :06:33.Theresa May since the election to set out that vision more clearly

:06:34. > :06:46.than he has before in calling for a transitional period on leaving the

:06:47. > :06:49.European Union, as long as it needs to be for the sake of business,

:06:50. > :06:51.saying there should be no rush to drive down net migration figures for

:06:52. > :06:53.the sake of business. He said there should be compromises, for the sake

:06:54. > :06:54.of hanging onto the benefits, if not the membership of the customs union

:06:55. > :06:57.for as long as necessary. Loss of this will go down rather badly with

:06:58. > :07:00.many Conservatives, including ministers. Philip Hammond, who is

:07:01. > :07:03.the Chancellor, might well have been sacked if Theresa May had got the

:07:04. > :07:07.result in the election she hoped for. Instead, he has emerged a

:07:08. > :07:18.powerful figure, and as for Brexit, it looked tough, but with the

:07:19. > :07:19.Conservatives command in no great strength in the House of Commons it

:07:20. > :07:21.looks tougher still than the final outcome of Brexit in these

:07:22. > :07:23.circumstances, that could only now be a matter of guesswork. Thank you

:07:24. > :07:31.for joining us. The emergency response team

:07:32. > :07:33.dealing with the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower fire has said

:07:34. > :07:36.all the survivors who need it have By noon today it said a third

:07:37. > :07:41.of a million pounds had Nearly a week on from the disaster

:07:42. > :07:45.in which at least 79 people were killed our special

:07:46. > :07:47.correspondent Lucy Manning has been talking to families -

:07:48. > :07:50.getting their side of the story. Last week, Grenville was home

:07:51. > :07:52.will stop this time last Tuesday, meals were being eaten,

:07:53. > :07:55.TV watched, homework done. Now it's a place where families

:07:56. > :08:00.are lost, where those And they are still

:08:01. > :08:08.searching for help. Will Thompson helped

:08:09. > :08:12.save his neighbour from the fire. He's been given a hotel

:08:13. > :08:21.room to live in. Hotel is a hotel and a home is a

:08:22. > :08:25.home, they are not the same thing, no matter how good it is in a hotel,

:08:26. > :08:33.my home is over there in the Ashes. And what have they said. Sorry,

:08:34. > :08:41.will. This is a week, almost a week after the fire and I'm really angry.

:08:42. > :08:49.I don't want to be there. I want to be at home with my family. Yesterday

:08:50. > :08:53.we met Miguel Alves in his hotel room. Today it's no longer his

:08:54. > :08:58.family's home. They threw me out from the hotel because it was fully

:08:59. > :09:04.booked from today. Oh no, what are you going to do? They gave us

:09:05. > :09:12.another hotel in ravens Court and now we have to move everything back

:09:13. > :09:16.to there. We need to find somewhere more permanent state, to get back to

:09:17. > :09:19.some more normal life and give us some time to mourn over the friends

:09:20. > :09:24.we have lost the Grenfell Tower fire. This woman walks with her

:09:25. > :09:30.suitcase, she lived in the estate underneath the tower. Besides being

:09:31. > :09:33.a refugee in my own community I am taking my suitcase home to go and

:09:34. > :09:41.get some clothing, some more school uniform bits for my children. So I

:09:42. > :09:44.am now in a hotel with my children who are studying, who are going

:09:45. > :09:50.through exams and going through a lot of trauma. They are having

:09:51. > :09:54.counselling themselves. Is it safe? We need somebody categorically to

:09:55. > :09:59.Dallas, yes, it's safe for you to return. The help for now seems

:10:00. > :10:02.better organised but it's taken a week to get here and there are still

:10:03. > :10:10.major concerns about housing, about safety and about trust especially.

:10:11. > :10:14.And everywhere here the pictures that are too much to bear. The

:10:15. > :10:23.children and their teacher of Ravensdale Park primary, nadir,

:10:24. > :10:26.Zainab, Fatima and others, so proud in their uniforms.

:10:27. > :10:31.Lucy Manning, BBC News, West London. Police are continuing to question

:10:32. > :10:34.a 47-year-old man after a van was driven into a crowd of muslim

:10:35. > :10:36.worshippers in north Darren Osborne - from Cardiff -

:10:37. > :10:41.is being held on suspicion of terror Nine people are being

:10:42. > :10:46.treated in hospital - some with potentially

:10:47. > :10:49.life-changing injuries. Here's our home affairs

:10:50. > :10:51.correspondent Daniel Sandford - his report contains some distressing

:10:52. > :10:53.images. He was underneath, we have to lift

:10:54. > :10:56.the van, we have to lift the van! The chaos caused by the attack

:10:57. > :10:59.on Sunday night was captured in these dramatic new pictures

:11:00. > :11:06.acquired by the BBC. The hired van had,

:11:07. > :11:08.apparently deliberately, ploughed into a group of people

:11:09. > :11:11.marking the Muslim Nine ended up in hospital,

:11:12. > :11:19.and one man died. Among the people in the crowd,

:11:20. > :11:21.Abdul Matin Chowdhury Today they were recovering

:11:22. > :11:28.at home in their garden. His son narrowly

:11:29. > :11:34.escaped injury himself. As his father has little English,

:11:35. > :11:39.he spoke for both of them. I saw an angry driver

:11:40. > :11:42.in a van, in a company van. He looked at the Muslims gathered

:11:43. > :11:45.around, he just drove through, and then he hit like seven

:11:46. > :11:51.or eight people, My dad got hit on the shoulder

:11:52. > :12:05.and next to his legs. And my dad's friend got

:12:06. > :12:11.hit in the stomach. Witnesses have told us

:12:12. > :12:13.that the van came down Seven Sisters Road at speed,

:12:14. > :12:17.turning into this cul-de-sac and knocking down the worshippers

:12:18. > :12:22.as it came through. It then came to a rest

:12:23. > :12:25.between those two bollards. The bollard that it hit has been

:12:26. > :12:29.removed, and when it came to a stop,

:12:30. > :12:32.a young man was trapped underneath the van,

:12:33. > :12:35.though he has survived. the head of one of the affected

:12:36. > :12:43.mosques called for calm. Islamophobia, unfortunately,

:12:44. > :12:56.is on the rise, and hate crime is also on the rise,

:12:57. > :12:59.and we have to do something The cycle of violence

:13:00. > :13:01.will lead us nowhere. After a day of crime-scene

:13:02. > :13:02.investigation, the van was eventually taken

:13:03. > :13:04.away yesterday evening. The suspected driver

:13:05. > :13:07.was arrested at the scene. Darren Osborne is still in custody,

:13:08. > :13:11.being held on suspicion of murder, attempted murder, and of preparation

:13:12. > :13:13.and commission of terrorist acts. Four of the most senior executives

:13:14. > :13:22.at Barclays, in 2008, have been charged with fraud over

:13:23. > :13:24.the way they dealt with It is the first time criminal

:13:25. > :13:28.charges have been brought in the UK against a bank

:13:29. > :13:32.and its former executives. The charges follow a five-year

:13:33. > :13:34.investigation by the Serious Fraud Office and relate

:13:35. > :13:37.to the way they raised billions Those charged include Barclays'

:13:38. > :13:41.former chief executive, John Varley. Our business editor,

:13:42. > :13:48.Simon Jack, reports. There is some flash photography in

:13:49. > :13:51.this report. Charged with criminal conduct,

:13:52. > :13:53.Barclays and four members of the bank's top brass,

:13:54. > :13:55.including former Chief Executive John Varley and former head

:13:56. > :13:58.of Barclays' Middle Eastern This is the first time senior

:13:59. > :14:04.executives of any British bank have faced criminal proceedings

:14:05. > :14:05.for their conduct during While the UK Government was busy

:14:06. > :14:15.using taxpayers' money to rescue RBS and Lloyds,

:14:16. > :14:17.Barclays came here, to Qatar, for emergency

:14:18. > :14:19.cash to keep it afloat. In 2008, Barclays raised

:14:20. > :14:22.a total of ?12 billion from Middle Eastern investors,

:14:23. > :14:23.including Qatar Holding, There was a sweetener,

:14:24. > :14:30.?332 million was paid to Qatar for advisory services,

:14:31. > :14:34.payments that weren't disclosed. Not only that, but Barclays lent

:14:35. > :14:41.?2 billion to Qatar Holding Lending others money

:14:42. > :14:47.to buy your shares is illegal. So why did Barclays turn

:14:48. > :14:49.down Government money? The Chief Executive at the time,

:14:50. > :14:52.and one of the people charged today, The circumstances were

:14:53. > :14:57.very far from normal. We needed speed, we needed

:14:58. > :15:05.certainty and we needed size. Looking back on it, I have to say,

:15:06. > :15:08.given the extreme fragility of the sentiment in the markets

:15:09. > :15:11.at that time, I'm very glad indeed that we managed to raise the capital

:15:12. > :15:14.that we did raise at that time. Government ministers at the time

:15:15. > :15:16.have a different explanation. Barclays did not want

:15:17. > :15:18.to have anything to do I believe that was partly

:15:19. > :15:23.because of a political view that this would look like creeping

:15:24. > :15:26.nationalisation and also, quite frankly, because the UK

:15:27. > :15:29.Government's money came with quite Now, if it's proven that crimes

:15:30. > :15:41.were committed here, to some it still won't be clear

:15:42. > :15:51.who the victims were. The taxpayer didn't

:15:52. > :15:52.have to shell out. Shareholders in Barclays did better

:15:53. > :15:53.than shareholders in RBS or Lloyds, but others will say rules are rules

:15:54. > :15:53.and if this approach of prosecuting individuals as well as institutions

:15:54. > :15:54.helps change a stubborn culture throughout banking of not

:15:55. > :15:56.following those rules then Now we're starting to move to a more

:15:57. > :16:04.American approach where individuals are in the frame for doing things

:16:05. > :16:07.wrong within the business world. That is likely to concentrate

:16:08. > :16:09.people's minds and make them think about -

:16:10. > :16:12.is what I'm about to do a really sensible thing if it's

:16:13. > :16:15.going to be me standing in the dock? Fraud convictions can carry

:24:19. > :24:24.Our correspondent, Sima Kotecha, is in Brighton.

:24:25. > :24:35.It's been a hot day for many of us. It's believed the hottest place

:24:36. > :24:39.today was in Surrey. With a top temperature of 31.3 degrees. These

:24:40. > :24:45.temperatures and conditions aren't expected to last much longer.

:24:46. > :24:50.Sunshine over Brighton beach and people here are relishing every

:24:51. > :24:53.minute of it I'm here with my woman. You are a beautiful woman myself.

:24:54. > :24:58.Enjoying the weather. Beautiful weather. Glorious everything is easy

:24:59. > :25:03.in the sun. Sit and have a beer. Have lunch at the Grand. It's

:25:04. > :25:08.amazing. Sarah's birthday, couldn't be better. Temperatures reached 27

:25:09. > :25:13.degrees today. In London a hot 3 p 1 degrees. It's too hot at the moment.

:25:14. > :25:20.I've never really known it quite so hot as this. For sleeping, it's

:25:21. > :25:25.diabolical. So what is a heatwave? The Met Office doesn't have an

:25:26. > :25:30.official definition but says heatwave conditions are created when

:25:31. > :25:34.temperatures reach more than 30 degrees Celsius for five consecutive

:25:35. > :25:36.days. That is what will happen if the conditions continue Thomas

:25:37. > :25:41.expected, making it the hottest spell in four years. In these hot

:25:42. > :25:44.temperatures you can see people cooling themselves off over here

:25:45. > :25:48.using their paddle boards to get some relief from this blazing hot

:25:49. > :25:52.weather. If these temperatures are to continue for the next day or so,

:25:53. > :25:59.it will mean that this June will be the hottest June on record in more

:26:00. > :26:02.than 20 years. Is the Met Office issued a level three amber warning

:26:03. > :26:06.until Thursday morning. It means hospitals and other emergency

:26:07. > :26:10.services are on alert. We had high temperatures for the past few days.

:26:11. > :26:13.That is because we have seen warm air arriving from the tropical

:26:14. > :26:19.Atlantic. It has been with us for a few days. It's been getting warmer

:26:20. > :26:21.and warmer every day. In Cambridgeshire sweltering

:26:22. > :26:27.temperatures meant that the tarmac on the roads melted. The chimps in

:26:28. > :26:32.Dunstable were suffering. They were given ice lollies to keep them cool.

:26:33. > :26:37.The TUC are urging bosses to allow people to ditch their suits and ties

:26:38. > :26:41.in this weather. Some are already doing so. Ordinarily for my working

:26:42. > :26:44.day existence I would wear a suit. Having come here to Brighton, I'm

:26:45. > :26:50.not going to be wearing a suit in this temperature. These conditions

:26:51. > :26:51.aren't expected to last. Rain and thunderstorms are forecast for

:26:52. > :27:01.tomorrow night. Sima Kotecha, BBC News, Brighton.

:27:02. > :27:06.Hatoyama is it going to get? One more day of this heat. Tomorrow

:27:07. > :27:10.highs of 34 degrees. Beautiful sunshine around around today.

:27:11. > :27:18.Temperatures up to 31 Celsius in a number of spots. Plenty of sunshine.

:27:19. > :27:21.An odd shower to the Brecon beacons. Showers working into Northern

:27:22. > :27:26.Ireland. More significance over night as you head to bed, 10.00pm,

:27:27. > :27:32.look at these temperatures. 26 degrees Celsius. Yes, it's going to

:27:33. > :27:35.be an uncomfortable night sleep ahead for sure. There will be rain

:27:36. > :27:40.moving across northern parts of the UK as we go on through the night and

:27:41. > :27:44.into Wednesday morning as well. The bulk of England and Wales it will be

:27:45. > :27:48.a typical scene we got used to over the last few day, clear blue skies

:27:49. > :27:53.and sunshine. It will be hotter. 34 degrees on the cards. If we get

:27:54. > :27:57.that, it will be the hottest June day for over 40 years. Wednesday

:27:58. > :28:01.evening and Wednesday night-time we will start to see big thunderstorms

:28:02. > :28:05.being formed by that heat and humidity that has been building up

:28:06. > :28:09.for a few days. The storms will become extensive on Wednesday night

:28:10. > :28:13.and thunder and hail mixed in with these. Torrential bust bursts of

:28:14. > :28:17.rain and gusts wind. The storms around for the first part of

:28:18. > :28:19.Thursday morning for eastern England before clearing are into the North

:28:20. > :28:22.Sea. The afternoon bright are conditions. Temperatures coming

:28:23. > :28:26.down, still warm across eastern England, a fresher feel to the

:28:27. > :28:30.weather for most of us with bright or sunny spells. That is how the

:28:31. > :28:33.weather looks Friday and on into the weekend as well. Temperatures closer

:28:34. > :28:37.to average for the time of year. Quite a bit of cloud, sunny spells

:28:38. > :28:41.coming through. Temperatures 23 degrees or so in London. The

:28:42. > :28:44.heatwave is coming to an end. Perhaps more significantly towards

:28:45. > :28:47.the end of the week we will get more comfortable weather forgetting a

:28:48. > :28:52.good night's sleep. Thank you very much.
