:00:07. > :00:09.as football fans clash in ugly scenes.

:00:10. > :00:12.She has never experienced vholence like this before, or the aggression

:00:13. > :00:16.We have never been hit by coins before.

:00:17. > :00:18.To be hit by seven of them in one evening...

:00:19. > :00:21.We look at whether West Ham's stadium is fit for purpose.

:00:22. > :00:26.The 17-year-old fighting for his life after being st`bbed -

:00:27. > :00:31.his parents hope this picture will urge witnesses to come forward.

:00:32. > :00:34.Plus, 30 years ago today, the stock exchange was revolutionised -

:00:35. > :00:40.A of a West End show, after a life-changing operation

:00:41. > :00:43.And the 11-year-old with cerebral palsy who's now the star

:00:44. > :00:51.A of a West End show, after a life-changing operation

:00:52. > :00:54.If I had not had the operathon, I just don't think I would have

:00:55. > :00:56.been able to do this, because it's standing

:00:57. > :01:15.Welcome to BBC London News, with me, Riz Lateef.

:01:16. > :01:20.Everyone will remember the jubilant scenes during the London Olxmpics,

:01:21. > :01:24.but a far cry from the 2012 games were ugly clashes between rhval

:01:25. > :01:30.football fans during West H`m's match with Chelsea last night.

:01:31. > :01:33.Seven people were arrested after police and stewards struggled

:01:34. > :01:37.It's not the first time trotble has flared in what's now

:01:38. > :01:39.called the London Stadium, prompting some to question

:01:40. > :01:42.if football being played in the stadium is a fitting legacy

:01:43. > :01:52.Many believe that English football had consigned

:01:53. > :01:55.such scenes to its past, but last night West Ham and Chelsea

:01:56. > :01:58.fans surged towards one another inside the former Olympic Stadium,

:01:59. > :02:01.and were held apart only by desperate stewards and police.

:02:02. > :02:04.Seats were ripped up and thrown as tensions between supportdrs

:02:05. > :02:10.boiled over in the closing minutes of the game.

:02:11. > :02:12.1,000 stewards and a heavy police presence ensured minimal trouble

:02:13. > :02:17.outside the stadium before and after the match.

:02:18. > :02:20.But the ugly scenes left many fans, including children,

:02:21. > :02:25.We were watching the game, in the front row,

:02:26. > :02:30.Suddenly there were coins coming over and my daughter Victorha

:02:31. > :02:36.got hit by seven coins all over her body.

:02:37. > :02:40.The stewards did not seem to do too much at all and let it carrhed on.

:02:41. > :02:42.Other kids were hit, and also the disabled section.

:02:43. > :02:46.I am lucky that I have got out and now it is finished.

:02:47. > :03:10.we are totally against it, as a club and as a team.

:03:11. > :03:12.For those kinds of things to happen, especially

:03:13. > :03:20.West Ham became tenants at the London stadium in August

:03:21. > :03:23.and the control of stewarding and security is the responshbility

:03:24. > :03:32.It has made changes to how fans are segregated,

:03:33. > :03:33.following isolated outbreaks of trouble earlier this season,

:03:34. > :03:36.but in the wake of last night's incidents, many feel further

:03:37. > :03:38.amendments at the stadium are now needed.

:03:39. > :03:41.The Football Association has launched an investigation.

:03:42. > :03:43.Both clubs will be asked to give their comment on evdnts

:03:44. > :03:49.but with a string of high-profile fixture still to come this season,

:03:50. > :03:52.the pressure on West Ham to achieve a secure stadium is set to hncrease.

:03:53. > :04:01.Joining me now is London MP Mark Field, who's

:04:02. > :04:09.the vice-chairman of the All-Party Parliamentary Football Group.

:04:10. > :04:16.a a a a a a a a a a good evdning. There have been concerns about the

:04:17. > :04:24.stadium and this highlights aired. That it is not fit for football

:04:25. > :04:29.Too many of your listeners `nd viewers, they may think this is a

:04:30. > :04:34.modern football stadium... @nd we thought the bad old days of football

:04:35. > :04:38.hooliganism in the 1970s were over. I feel sorry for West Ham who spend

:04:39. > :04:41.a lot of money in trying to get this state-of-the-art stadium right for

:04:42. > :04:47.football, but in policing tdrms there are real issues about public

:04:48. > :04:51.order. I think this also applies to radio connections for the police

:04:52. > :04:56.there. I would like to see West Ham putting forward a plan in double

:04:57. > :04:59.quick time to the football Association and the Premier League

:05:00. > :05:03.about what they intend to do. It might be that large areas of

:05:04. > :05:07.segregated fans may need to be put in place.

:05:08. > :05:10.Like a pick-up on one point. You talked about the radio security

:05:11. > :05:15.system for the police which was not in place in the stadium. Wh`t is it

:05:16. > :05:18.acceptable for the stadium to open like that? The police did hhghlight

:05:19. > :05:23.this beforehand. It is West Ham... We have not had

:05:24. > :05:26.major problems at the ground for some years in English footb`ll, the

:05:27. > :05:32.presumption was it would be business as usual. That has not happdned and

:05:33. > :05:36.this is a high profile stadhum. Do you think the stadium has

:05:37. > :05:43.contributed to this? I think it has. The much more

:05:44. > :05:46.compact Stadium West Ham usdd to have at Upton Park was one of the

:05:47. > :05:51.best grounds. Clearly there are bigger issues that are being faced

:05:52. > :05:56.at this particular ground. None of this is not solvable. We have seen

:05:57. > :06:02.headlines today talking abott having points deductions and things like

:06:03. > :06:06.that, but I do not think th`t is the way forward. It is up to West Ham to

:06:07. > :06:09.get their house in order. In the meantime, there have been

:06:10. > :06:17.criticisms of the West Ham deal in the first place, moving to the

:06:18. > :06:22.Olympic Stadium, now the London Stadium. If more has to be spent on

:06:23. > :06:24.security in this way, is it right that the taxpayer should pick up the

:06:25. > :06:31.bill? That is a separate issue, rdally. I

:06:32. > :06:34.think the deal was a good one for the tax payer. West Ham havd a good

:06:35. > :06:38.deal as well so they should be making a significant contribution

:06:39. > :06:40.but they need to liaise with the police to make sure this ground is

:06:41. > :06:46.that for purpose for any large sporting occasion. We cannot have

:06:47. > :06:53.much disorder... The saddest thing is that this is a place that we were

:06:54. > :06:58.all very proud of four years ago. You think that West Ham shotld pick

:06:59. > :07:00.up the bill for security inside the stadium?

:07:01. > :07:05.They need to work on getting a plan in place to show that the events of

:07:06. > :07:11.last night are not repeated. If that requires a significant extension

:07:12. > :07:12.that West Ham must make for a part of that bill, a large part of that

:07:13. > :07:14.bill. Thank you.

:07:15. > :07:19.Why solar panels the size of over 50 football pitches

:07:20. > :07:32.the message from the mother of Jamel Boyce,

:07:33. > :07:38.The 17-year-old Boyce was involved in a scuffle outside

:07:39. > :07:42.Police are appealing for anx witnesses to come forward.

:07:43. > :07:45.Emma North has been speaking to Jamel's mother, who says it's

:07:46. > :07:53.impossible to describe the pain she's suffering.

:07:54. > :07:59.This is what Jamel Boyce looks like now. He is critically ill. His

:08:00. > :08:03.mother described what it was like saying goodbye to him almost two

:08:04. > :08:10.weeks ago, on a perfectly normal Friday morning.

:08:11. > :08:14.I said to him, but by, Jamel, he said goodbye mum, have a nice day.

:08:15. > :08:19.That was it. What kind of boy is he?

:08:20. > :08:22.He is happy. He has never bden sad. He is the type of child where I look

:08:23. > :08:26.forward to Saturday mornings were he would be eating breakfast, scrambled

:08:27. > :08:30.eggs with salmon. I look forward to that every Saturday.

:08:31. > :08:37.What do you know about what happened that evening when he was st`bbed?

:08:38. > :08:46.What I know so far... He got stabbed in the heart. The lungs. Thd lake.

:08:47. > :08:51.And in his arm. Have you been to see him in

:08:52. > :08:55.hospital? Basically it is where I livd, and

:08:56. > :09:01.the bedside. I am just waithng. I have got my fingers crossed.

:09:02. > :09:10.When you see him, what is it like to spend time with him?

:09:11. > :09:14.It is so sad. I must I wish him all of the time. I tell him how much I

:09:15. > :09:21.love him, which I know that he knows. I keep reminding him of the

:09:22. > :09:29.things that we are going to do and I just hope that it will happdn.

:09:30. > :09:34.Did you ever think he was the kind of boy who would get stabbed?

:09:35. > :09:41.No, and that is why I am struggling so much. That is why when I heard it

:09:42. > :09:47.was a knife, it is just so devastating. I am just thinking how

:09:48. > :09:52.frightening it must have bedn, and the shock that has gone through his

:09:53. > :10:00.body. And I was even there to help him. -- I was not there to help him.

:10:01. > :10:05.If you had a message to somdone a friend or a relative, who w`s going

:10:06. > :10:09.to carry a knife, what would you say to them?

:10:10. > :10:17.I ask all parents to search their kids. If you find them carrxing a

:10:18. > :10:24.knife, it is too dangerous. The livelihood in my life is gone, and I

:10:25. > :10:29.do not want anyone else to go through this. What ever... @nything

:10:30. > :10:31.that you can do to stop this, please help.

:10:32. > :10:34.Jamel's mother, Pansy Boyce, ending that report.

:10:35. > :10:37.Researchers say every child should be screened for an inherited form

:10:38. > :10:41.of heart disease that affects around one in 270 people.

:10:42. > :10:43.Scientists at Queen Mary Unhversity of London say a simple blood test

:10:44. > :10:46.could prevent about 600 heart attacks each year in England

:10:47. > :10:48.and Wales in people under the age of 40.

:10:49. > :11:01.familial hypercholesterolaelia, also known as FH.

:11:02. > :11:03.Over the generations, this inherited condition

:11:04. > :11:10.Her mother at 40, and her mother and 39, and they all died

:11:11. > :11:13.from a heart attack due to having FH.

:11:14. > :11:20.Kim's two children have also been diagnosed with FH,

:11:21. > :11:23.so like their mum, now have to watch what they eat

:11:24. > :11:29.It is such a devastating and catastrophic condition, really,

:11:30. > :11:31.for the family members who are left behind,

:11:32. > :11:35.And you have this fear that it is going to happen to you.

:11:36. > :11:37.Researchers now believe that a simple blood test

:11:38. > :11:39.carried out in toddlers when they have their routind

:11:40. > :11:41.vaccinations could help identify many more people at risk

:11:42. > :11:46.FH is the main cause of inhdrited early heart disease.

:11:47. > :11:50.It is believed to affect around one in 270 children, characterised

:11:51. > :11:59.Kept untreated, young adults who have the condition have around

:12:00. > :12:02.a ten fold increased risk of heart attack before the age of 40.

:12:03. > :12:04.But now a study involving more than 10,000 children in England

:12:05. > :12:07.and Wales suggests that manx more people could be

:12:08. > :12:13.Children are already passing through general practice at the time

:12:14. > :12:16.when parents are particularly focused on the preventative health

:12:17. > :12:18.of their child, and therefore their families as a whole.

:12:19. > :12:24.So this is an opportunity to provide a population sweep to pick tp people

:12:25. > :12:27.with inherited heart diseasd with a view to avoiding prelature

:12:28. > :12:33.And it is not just babies who are active in the screening

:12:34. > :12:36.Because it is an inherited condition, one parent would also

:12:37. > :12:39.have it, so the process means to generations at the same time

:12:40. > :12:43.In March of this year, the UK National Screening Committee

:12:44. > :12:46.decided that there was not dnough evidence to support a universal

:12:47. > :12:51.So, this is the magazine th`t I got from Heart UK.

:12:52. > :12:54.But Kim believes that early diagnosis could make a cruchal

:12:55. > :12:56.difference to thousands of families who may not realise the danger

:12:57. > :13:04.The BBC has gained access to secret files, which contain new cltes

:13:05. > :13:08.as to how four people were wrongly convicted of the Guilford ptb

:13:09. > :13:13.Gerry Conlon, along with his co-defendants, served 15 ye`rs

:13:14. > :13:16.in jail before the convictions were finally quashed.

:13:17. > :13:27.In October 1974, bombs rippdd through two Guildford pubs.

:13:28. > :13:30.Five people were killed and many more injured.

:13:31. > :13:36.Police were under huge pressure to apprehend the IRA bombers

:13:37. > :13:38.responsible for these Surrey attacks.

:13:39. > :13:44.The police and the army camd in and kicked the door in.

:13:45. > :13:46.Ann was 14 when her brother Gerry Conlon

:13:47. > :13:51.We were an ordinary Catholic family,

:13:52. > :13:57.growing up on the Falls Road in a working class area.

:13:58. > :14:00.You know, my family were not Republicans.

:14:01. > :14:04.There was no way that Gerry Conlon was involved in any bombs,

:14:05. > :14:07.because Gerry Conlon was not in the IRA.

:14:08. > :14:10.The accused were brought to court from the police stations

:14:11. > :14:15.The Guildford Four were found guilty and sentenced to life in prhson ..

:14:16. > :14:17.Charged as a result of a Surrey Police investig`tion.

:14:18. > :14:27.In 1989, their moment of redemption came.

:14:28. > :14:29.The Court of Appeal overturned their convictions,

:14:30. > :14:38.For something I didn't know anything about!

:14:39. > :14:41.The case shattered confidence in the British legal system.

:14:42. > :14:45.The Guildford Four claimed they had been set up by corrupt police.

:14:46. > :14:48.An inquiry into the wrongful convictions was carried out

:14:49. > :14:51.by a High Court judge, Sir John May.

:14:52. > :14:54.But more than 700 files from Sir John May's findings

:14:55. > :14:59.remained private, embargoed by the Government.

:15:00. > :15:03.Now a freedom of information request by the BBC has succeeded in securing

:15:04. > :15:10.For the first time, they show some members of the inquiry refused

:15:11. > :15:14.to accept that Gerry Conlon had not been a member of the IRA,

:15:15. > :15:20.Gerry was burning up inside that he never

:15:21. > :15:28.To him, it was an injustice piled on top of a whole heap

:15:29. > :15:33.The papers referred to police intelligence from the time

:15:34. > :15:37.of the arrests which was never tested in court.

:15:38. > :15:43.They give us an indication that some of the problems we had in the course

:15:44. > :15:51.the persistent attempt to try to re-convict the

:15:52. > :15:55.I would like to see everythhng that Sir John May saw,

:15:56. > :15:58.and all the evidence that w`s given to him, and all the documents that

:15:59. > :16:02.were produced in him, so th`t we can see what it was that he was able

:16:03. > :16:06.to find out about the case `nd why it went so badly wrong.

:16:07. > :16:12.And why four young people were convicted of terrible offences

:16:13. > :16:15.and served an enormous period of time for them.

:16:16. > :16:22.He wanted a public apology for all of those convicted.

:16:23. > :16:25.I am very sorry that they wdre subject to such an ordeal

:16:26. > :16:33.In 2005, the then Prime Minhster Tony Blair issued an apologx

:16:34. > :16:36.to the Guildford Four for the miscarriage of justhce.

:16:37. > :16:43.It was almost like a millstone had been taken from around my ndck.

:16:44. > :16:49.Gerry Conlon died two years ago aged 60.

:16:50. > :16:53.Richard O'Rawe, a former spokesperson for the IRA,

:16:54. > :16:55.and biographer and friend of Gerry Conlon, says there are now

:16:56. > :17:01.renewed calls for all 700 fhles to be placed into the public domain.

:17:02. > :17:07.It still matters because thdre was such a huge injustice to Ann,

:17:08. > :17:11.Gerry's sister, and it mattdrs to enough other people.

:17:12. > :17:19.It has to matter, because if it does not matter, we live in a society

:17:20. > :17:22.You know, what the British Government has done,

:17:23. > :17:33.42 years later, I'm still not getting answers.

:17:34. > :17:36.Stay with us, because still to come tonight:

:17:37. > :17:39.The boy with cerebral palsy given a starring West End role,

:17:40. > :17:52.after his parents crowdfunddd for a life-changing operation.

:17:53. > :17:55.Next, it's quite an ambitiots plan - a London council being fullx

:17:56. > :17:57.powered by solar energy, which they claim will

:17:58. > :17:59.save them millions of pounds in the longer term.

:18:00. > :18:01.It already has solar panels on its building,

:18:02. > :18:04.but now wants to put them on greenbelt land as well -

:18:05. > :18:05.something not everyone is happy about.

:18:06. > :18:16.They call it a peaceful gredn oasis is in the busy borough of H`vering,

:18:17. > :18:19.next to Dagenham Park, it is also home to herds of deer.

:18:20. > :18:24.We have a huge variety of whldlife here, all indigenous.

:18:25. > :18:26.There are foxes, badgers, newts and crested newts.

:18:27. > :18:31.And there are butterflies, and over 80 species of birds.

:18:32. > :18:39.I bring my children over here, and to this very own partictlar

:18:40. > :18:49.This greenbelt land is owned by Havering Council

:18:50. > :18:53.and it is proposing turning 30 hectares of it,

:18:54. > :18:57.pitches, into London's first solar park on land.

:18:58. > :19:02.This is what a similar park looks like on farmland in Leicestdrshire.

:19:03. > :19:05.In Havering, the plans are for solar panels on 30 hectares next

:19:06. > :19:12.to Dagenham Park to generatd enough power for nearly 3000 homes.

:19:13. > :19:15.The council also wants to ttrn eight hectares, about 11 football pitches,

:19:16. > :19:22.of land in Gerpins Lane into a solar park too.

:19:23. > :19:25.Havering Council denies its plans for a solar park here

:19:26. > :19:29.It says that it would leave most of the trees and hedgerows,

:19:30. > :19:32.and plant a wildflower meadow, and it would let the deer and other

:19:33. > :19:35.wild animals still be allowdd to thrive and roam freely hdre.

:19:36. > :19:40.Nearly 3000 of them have signed an online petition.

:19:41. > :19:43.But the council says that the scheme would generate badly needed funds.

:19:44. > :19:46.Income is generated through utilising what was

:19:47. > :19:52.effectively a neglected bit of agricultural land...

:19:53. > :19:54.It turns it into a moneymakhng scheme, and really it

:19:55. > :19:57.will help to support division public services.

:19:58. > :19:59.I feel that the vast majority of residents in Havering

:20:00. > :20:04.So, should this be a park providing renewable energy or left

:20:05. > :20:10.The council wants to hear what local people think,

:20:11. > :20:12.and they have until November 14 to reply.

:20:13. > :20:21.Yvonne Hall, BBC London News, Havering.

:20:22. > :20:23.There's a huge amount of worry that the Brexit vote

:20:24. > :20:26.could hit the City of London, all the trading that goes

:20:27. > :20:29.on there and the money that flows from it into the economy.

:20:30. > :20:31.But some analysts say the m`ssive deregulation 30 years ago -

:20:32. > :20:34.the so-called "Big Bang" - could in fact protect

:20:35. > :20:37.Before the Big Bang, trading had to be done

:20:38. > :20:38.face-to-face between certain controlled trading companies,

:20:39. > :20:41.but afterwards, anyone could trade and it was all done by comptters.

:20:42. > :20:43.This is a short history of a remarkable and

:20:44. > :21:29.The previous day, you had thousands of people walking

:21:30. > :21:31.across the market floor, huge noise, and you walk

:21:32. > :21:33.in on the Monday morning and the trading options market
