:01:17. > :01:19.The next few years will reshape our city.
:01:20. > :01:21.The question is - to what extent and how?
:01:22. > :01:24.We start tonight by going back to the two boroughs with the highest
:01:25. > :01:27.proportion of leave and remain voters.
:01:28. > :01:30.Our reporters who were there back in June on the day of the referendum
:01:31. > :01:33.result have returned to gauge reaction.
:01:34. > :01:35.In a moment, we'll hear from Alice Bhandhukravi
:01:36. > :01:44.First, let's go to Marc Ashdown in Havering.
:01:45. > :01:50.If I cast my mind back to June last year,
:01:51. > :01:52.the day after the referendum, I was here.
:01:53. > :01:55.It was a boiling hot day , with a temperature in favour
:01:56. > :01:59.70% of those who voted, wanted to leave.
:02:00. > :02:06.Today, the weather has cooled down a bit, but have opinions too?

:02:52. > :02:56.everything, but, no, I think change is good again.
:02:57. > :02:58.So, if they did have another vote, would you still vote
:02:59. > :03:06.That was what I choose to do and I will stick to it.

:03:19. > :03:23.And now, everyone is, like, I voted out just because I thought
:03:24. > :03:28.There is still much, then, riding on the Prime Minister's
:03:29. > :03:32.On television last night, she was saying she was
:03:33. > :03:35.looking for the best deal for everybody and I think she will.
:03:36. > :03:48.There's been a market here for nearly 800 years,
:03:49. > :03:50.the people still believe this is the best outcome to
:03:51. > :04:00.Marc Ashdown, BBC London News, Romford.
:04:01. > :04:06.Here in Lambeth, is quite a different story. I too have been
:04:07. > :04:14.retracing my steps. Last June, people here felt shell-shocked. It's
:04:15. > :04:19.not surprisingly because Lambeth voted 79% in favour of remaining in
:04:20. > :04:23.the EU. That's a greater percentage than anywhere else in the country.
:04:24. > :04:27.So, today, with the triggering of Article 50, do people here feel any
:04:28. > :04:29.differently? Last June, I met this man who sells
:04:30. > :04:32.granite and marble worktops here He is originally from Greece,
:04:33. > :04:35.but after 40 years, calls Back in June, he was feeling
:04:36. > :04:39.emotional about the vote to leave, so how
:04:40. > :04:41.have things changed? In the beginning,
:04:42. > :04:46.after you get stung with the news, you are
:04:47. > :04:53.automatically reacting. As time goes by, then you look back
:04:54. > :04:57.and you say, "Well, all the years I worked and I
:04:58. > :04:59.paid for my house. Last year, Maria who
:05:00. > :05:07.works in the local bar, told us she got Brexit
:05:08. > :05:10.would be bad for business. Today, she says some
:05:11. > :05:12.of her worst fears have been I believe now that
:05:13. > :05:16.it's become more real. I think people just become
:05:17. > :05:21.more and more frustrated with the fact that
:05:22. > :05:24.it's going to happen. We don't know exactly how
:05:25. > :05:27.it's going to happen, we don't know how it's
:05:28. > :05:29.going to move forward. At the Estrella Bar,
:05:30. > :05:31.they are just as cautious as they were
:05:32. > :05:37.nine months ago. We are still sad and we still don't
:05:38. > :05:42.know where we are going. Basically, the sentiment
:05:43. > :05:46.is like that. The people don't know what's
:05:47. > :05:49.going to happen in the future. So, here in Lambeth,
:05:50. > :05:52.where so many people voted to stay in the EU,
:05:53. > :06:12.Brexit remains a worry. The differing views there
:06:13. > :06:14.from two areas in London. Well, as the UK enters
:06:15. > :06:16.unchartered territory with the Brexit negotiatons,
:06:17. > :06:19.the one thing we do know is that businesses don't
:06:20. > :06:20.like uncertaintly. So, what impact could that have
:06:21. > :06:23.on companies here in the capital? Let's cross to Asad,
:06:24. > :06:31.who's got a great view of the city. Back on the 24th of June last year,
:06:32. > :06:36.I was there in the City of London gauging opinion and reaction to the
:06:37. > :06:38.result of the EU referendum. Overwhelmingly, people were
:06:39. > :06:42.concerned and there was some fear about what was heading that way in
:06:43. > :06:47.the coming years. Nine months on, well, so the predictions on that way
:06:48. > :06:50.that there would be a mass exodus of businesses and jobs hasn't quite
:06:51. > :06:54.materialised. Does that mean the City of London is warming to the
:06:55. > :07:03.idea of Brexit or is it still anxious and concerned about the UK
:07:04. > :07:07.going it alone? The ancient body that run the City of London has a
:07:08. > :07:12.motto. It translates as Lord guide us. There is at least a little
:07:13. > :07:17.comfort for those worrying about Brexit. These were the headlines
:07:18. > :07:22.today after last June's referendum, Winnie vote seem to catch the city
:07:23. > :07:26.on the hop. This is the aftermath of the June Brexit full. Since then,
:07:27. > :07:30.the pound has stabilised, but concerns with some in the city
:07:31. > :07:33.haven't. Worries about London losing businesses and jobs to other cities
:07:34. > :07:38.persist. This market watcher believes the city will be able to
:07:39. > :07:48.cope. The skill of the changes implemented over the next few years
:07:49. > :07:50.are going to be gradual, as opposed to be systemic shock we got into the
:07:51. > :07:53.minute. Some city firms have already said they may move some stuff out of
:07:54. > :07:56.London to other European cities. HSBC have confirmed it 1000 jobs,
:07:57. > :08:03.company-mac have confirmed for theirs and jobs and UBS up to 1500
:08:04. > :08:10.jobs. Morgan Stanley up to 1000. He admits further jobs could go, but
:08:11. > :08:14.how many? 2000, if we kept the existing level of access to the EU.
:08:15. > :08:20.Up to 75,000 if we didn't and that's a pretty hefty range. It further
:08:21. > :08:24.indicates that the nature of Brexit is rather more important jobs than
:08:25. > :08:28.Brexit itself. It may mean that the UK have to look to other markets in
:08:29. > :08:33.the future, but London has faced plenty of challenges in the past. It
:08:34. > :08:38.has eight global reputation and pool and has proved resilient in the
:08:39. > :08:43.past. The rest of Europe has been eyeing our financial services
:08:44. > :08:46.enviously. They are going to try and tidy at ways in which they may take
:08:47. > :08:52.advantage of that. In my judgment, I think there will be a friendly small
:08:53. > :08:55.slice. I think London will be quite resilient, but that is going to be
:08:56. > :08:58.an important feature of these negotiations. The truth is that
:08:59. > :09:03.those working in the city, like the rest of us, don't know the sure what
:09:04. > :09:09.will happen. The full impact of Brexit won't be known for years.
:09:10. > :09:15.That's the view from the city, but what about small and medium-sized
:09:16. > :09:19.businesses? There are around 1 million in London and the employee
:09:20. > :09:23.around about a half of all working Londoners. It's really important for
:09:24. > :09:27.them to have access to an EU market. It's very important for them to have
:09:28. > :09:31.access to foreign workers and they don't have the cushion of millions
:09:32. > :09:35.even billions of pounds of some of the businesses and banks have over
:09:36. > :09:39.there to get them through a turbulent but difficult few years.
:09:40. > :09:41.How are they feeling today? The day that Article 50 has been triggered.
:09:42. > :09:43.Sarah Harris has been finding out. Three men, all born in different
:09:44. > :09:46.European countries, who set up businesses on the same industrial
:09:47. > :09:48.estate in south-east London. When it comes to their
:09:49. > :09:50.views on Article 50 being triggered, they are going
:09:51. > :09:54.very different ways. He may have been born

:14:40. > :14:44.Tonight, of course, I'm at City Hall, the home of the Mayor of
:14:45. > :14:49.London. He spent this week travelling around Europe, speaking
:14:50. > :14:52.to EU leaders from countries that think Britain is about to break away
:14:53. > :14:57.from them, convincing them that London is the place to do business

:15:06. > :15:09.London and Tim Donovan asked him how he felt about Article 50 being

:15:17. > :15:19.can, constructively, to make sure we get a good Brexit deal.
:15:20. > :15:21.But if it's the case, I think they are not
:15:22. > :15:24.acting in London's best interests, then I will try to speak out.

:15:50. > :15:53.the country's success is contingent on London's success.

:16:15. > :16:16.now look like in terms of immigration from London?
:16:17. > :16:19.One of the things I've been stressing to be
:16:20. > :16:21.Government is, look, London is not the same as the country.
:16:22. > :16:27.I accept certain parts of the country voted
:16:28. > :16:29.to leave the EU because of anxieties around immigration.
:16:30. > :16:31.Whether or not they needed is different.
:16:32. > :16:33.I understand certain parts of the country don't want it.
:16:34. > :16:39.You say you want it, we've been getting 30,000 odd
:16:40. > :16:43.east Europeans in every year over the last ten years, do you want to
:16:44. > :16:47.I want to make sure we can meet the needs of London.
:16:48. > :16:49.That means, obviously, skilling up Londoners to
:16:50. > :16:51.have the skills for the jobs that we treat
:16:52. > :16:52.in construction or tech or
:16:53. > :16:54.finance or services, but also recognising that one
:16:55. > :16:57.of the reasons that we are one of the greatest cities in the
:16:58. > :16:59.world is our ability to attract talent.
:17:00. > :17:02.But those industries are all saying they want more people, so are
:17:03. > :17:06.you happy for that number to go up above 30,000 a year that are coming
:17:07. > :17:10.I will give you one simple example...
:17:11. > :17:15.We have roughly speaking 300,000 construction workers in London.
:17:16. > :17:19.Of those half, between ten and 20% are
:17:20. > :17:24.Even if we were to skill up our youngsters to have the skills in
:17:25. > :17:25.construction, we can't fill those vacancies.
:17:26. > :17:28.So you are happy, you are happy for the immigration level in
:17:29. > :17:30.London to go up each year from now on?
:17:31. > :17:35.We've got to have a flexible immigration system that
:17:36. > :17:37.Not just in construction, but in tech,
:17:38. > :17:39.culture, finance and other sectors as well.
:17:40. > :17:41.Do you understand that people will have less confidence on

:17:46. > :17:48.whether you're going to, you know, provide a decent deal if you won't

:17:54. > :17:55.they recognise the contribution talent makes to our city.
:17:56. > :17:56.We have 1 million Londoners, for example,
:17:57. > :17:59.who are EU citizens, contributing hugely to our economy.
:18:00. > :18:00.What's important is business leaders have
:18:01. > :18:02.the certainty for their businesses but I'm talking about.
:18:03. > :18:05.In the last 48 hours, you had a chance to talk
:18:06. > :18:07.to various people, Brussels and Paris, what is your best hope,
:18:08. > :18:10.what's your worst fear, in a nutshell about the future?
:18:11. > :18:12.Well, my concern about the European Union was
:18:13. > :18:15.their desire to punish us, to deter others from seeking to leave the EU.
:18:16. > :18:17.It is quite clear to me, having spoken to and
:18:18. > :18:18.met with presidents in
:18:19. > :18:20.the EU commission, their negotiators, members
:18:21. > :18:22.of the European Parliament, there is no desire to
:18:23. > :18:26.The point they, make which is not unreasonable is, how can you
:18:27. > :18:29.expect us to have better terms with you outside the European Union
:18:30. > :18:38.That is a reality we have to recognise is coming.
:18:39. > :18:42.I am hoping, that just like the EU is negotiating in good faith,
:18:43. > :18:44.the UK Government will negotiate in good faith
:18:45. > :18:58.Sadiq Khan speaking to Tim Donovan there. The formal process of
:18:59. > :19:02.breaking from the EU has now begun. We still see it is still very much
:19:03. > :19:07.dividing Londoners as to whether it is the right or wrong thing to do. I
:19:08. > :19:11.spoke to a senior city banker who said, we know today was coming, just
:19:12. > :19:16.be to make the most of it. He said, if anyone can make the most of it,
:19:17. > :19:16.London can. From City Hall, many thanks.
:19:17. > :19:22.And a man has died after being attacked by his own dog.
:19:23. > :19:25.A TV crew making a documentary was present and called an ambulance.
:19:26. > :19:27.It happened in Wood Green in North London.
:19:28. > :19:34.They are the UK's third favourite dog, according to BBC News research.
:19:35. > :19:37.But last Monday, in one of the flats behind me,
:19:38. > :19:45.attacked and killed by his Staffordshire bull terrier major
:19:46. > :19:49.Neighbours reported hearing screams as the attack took place.
:19:50. > :19:51.The Met police say the dog was contained by
:19:52. > :19:56.It remains in secure kennels, but the dog is a
:19:57. > :19:58.Staffordshire bull terrier, a breed not prohibited under the Dangerous
:19:59. > :20:04.It subsequently emerged that a BBC documentary team was with
:20:05. > :20:10.In a statement, a BBC spokesperson said: A crew making a BBC
:20:11. > :20:13.documentary were present, but not filming at the time of the incident
:20:14. > :20:18.Given the ongoing enquiries, it would not be
:20:19. > :20:27.On the day that hundreds of people gathered on Westminster Bridge
:20:28. > :20:30.to remember the victims of last week's attack, the Met's acting
:20:31. > :20:32.commissioner cautioned against rushing to change
:20:33. > :20:40.He said more security checks could create more queues
:20:41. > :20:42.at Parliament and could increase the risk to the public.
:20:43. > :20:47.Here's our Home Affairs Correspondent, Nick Beake.
:20:48. > :20:50.A show of solidarity for the victims of the Westminster attack.
:20:51. > :20:51.Solidarity with the grieving families.
:20:52. > :20:58.Solidarity with the police, who lost one of their own.
:20:59. > :21:00.I am sure PC Palmer's family would be
:21:01. > :21:03.overwhelmed by this, as they have been through the support that has
:21:04. > :21:10.A family whose members are on the front line, protecting high
:21:11. > :21:15.The attack here a week ago has raised questions about
:21:16. > :21:19.just how Parliament should be protected.
:21:20. > :21:21.But today, the acting commissioner warned against rushing
:21:22. > :21:26.If you stack people outside behind a line of
:21:27. > :21:28.security, sadly, you would literally make another line of people
:21:29. > :21:34.Or do you create a crowd by doing that.
:21:35. > :21:37.So, all of those things have to be thought
:21:38. > :21:44.Two reviews of security at Parliament are now underway.
:21:45. > :21:46.Scotland Yard also revealed today that after Halid Massoud's attack,
:21:47. > :21:50.there was a slight rise in Islamophobic incidents.
:21:51. > :21:53.But in much smaller rise than some feared.
:21:54. > :21:59.I was very worried that there may be a backlash.
:22:00. > :22:01.So we put a number of plans in place and idols
:22:02. > :22:04.want to pay tribute to loss of communities, community leaders,
:22:05. > :22:07.Today was another demonstration of London standing tall.
:22:08. > :22:09.A symbolic gesture, bridging not just the Thames, but
:22:10. > :22:17.different backgrounds, ages and faiths.
:22:18. > :22:20.You were in Westminster as a minute's silence
:22:21. > :22:27.was held on the bridge to remember the victims.
:22:28. > :22:34.Yes, it was pretty authentic and quite a reflective mood there.
:22:35. > :22:38.Exactly one week on from the moment that that dreadful attack took
:22:39. > :22:42.place. There were no speeches. You could just look at people's faces
:22:43. > :22:45.did all the talking you needed. Talking of words, we had a statement
:22:46. > :22:56.released in the last half an hour of the families. Let me read it to you.
:22:57. > :23:01.Our beloveds., caring, loving sister, amazing wife, irreplaceable
:23:02. > :23:05.and, thoughtful and supportive friend and the best and coolest of
:23:06. > :23:09.mummies, you were ripped away from my life in the cruellest and most
:23:10. > :23:14.cowardly of ways. We now pray that you guide and detect not only us,
:23:15. > :23:18.but all of London from further evil. You will always be remembered as a
:23:19. > :23:21.guardian angel, he never shied away from facing up to police. There are
:23:22. > :23:26.no words to begin to describe the clashing pain and eternal void left
:23:27. > :23:30.in our hearts. That is from her family this evening. Today, what we
:23:31. > :23:34.saw at Westminster Bridge, it was all about bringing people together.
:23:35. > :23:38.As we found, there were a lot of people from different backgrounds,
:23:39. > :23:44.Obviously, we felt aggrieved as well.
:23:45. > :23:47.And particularly because people misuse the name of our
:23:48. > :23:50.The Koran's message is of peace and tolerance.
:23:51. > :23:51.The Koran is categorical in stating that
:23:52. > :23:53.if you kill one innocent person, it's like killing
:23:54. > :23:56.We are all here together representing different ethnicities,
:23:57. > :23:59.And it is really important, because this is
:24:00. > :24:03.Violence has no place in religion and I just
:24:04. > :24:04.want to give a message to
:24:05. > :24:07.him - this is not in the name of God.
:24:08. > :24:11.I will support all the people staying together.
:24:12. > :24:29.Touching words there, as were the tribute from Aisha's family. It has
:24:30. > :24:35.been a tough and poignant week in the capital. Absolutely. Today, the
:24:36. > :24:38.Met police said 3500 people were witnesses last week. That gives you
:24:39. > :24:42.an indication of the scale of what happened. Many people chose to
:24:43. > :24:45.return to Westminster Bridge today and of course, it struck the earlier
:24:46. > :24:49.letter is a place where we saw the worst of humanity with that awful
:24:50. > :24:52.rampage, but also the best of humanity. You had police officers
:24:53. > :25:07.running across to help out, medics from the nearby hospital,
:25:08. > :25:09.people desperately trying to save lives. We have seen a week since
:25:10. > :25:11.then were London Schiphol and are trying to stand together. Our
:25:12. > :25:12.thoughts are with the families affected. Thank you, Nick. Turning
:25:13. > :25:13.to something different now. Now, a little bird tells me
:25:14. > :25:16.the weather is improving tomorrow. OK, it was Phil Avery and he's
:25:17. > :25:25.got all the details. That makes it sound like you
:25:26. > :25:29.shouldn't believe he worked out so. That's not the case. I'm glad
:25:30. > :25:35.somebody is listening, because I felt strange this morning as I made
:25:36. > :25:38.the journey here. The skies were leading. I was the only person in
:25:39. > :25:43.shirt sleeves. Everyone was dressed as though it was winter. Most people
:25:44. > :25:46.seem to have two or three layers on. That's about as bright as I could
:25:47. > :25:52.fine it in our weather Watchers pictures. We are better placed than
:25:53. > :25:56.some, because out towards the north and west, there was an awful lot
:25:57. > :26:01.more in the way of cloud. It's a piece of rain. I am not saying were
:26:02. > :26:03.going to avoid any of that through the rest of the evening and
:26:04. > :26:06.overnight, in fact, it may well be that we will see a little bit of
:26:07. > :26:11.thickening cloud just bring in bits and pieces of rain across us. Not
:26:12. > :26:15.amounting to much at all, but with all that cloud around and the
:26:16. > :26:20.continuation of this southerly breeze, it will not be a cold night,
:26:21. > :26:27.by any means at all. We're looking at around about ten or 11. That is
:26:28. > :26:30.is a figure we should be seeing as the daytime maximum. Wet a moment,
:26:31. > :26:36.because once we get rid of the cloud, maybe the last of the
:26:37. > :26:40.overnight rain. Yes, things to improve quite markedly. Look at
:26:41. > :26:44.that. I haven't got the figure is the wrong way round, yes, it could
:26:45. > :26:48.well be 21, possibly even 22 degrees in the heart of London tomorrow.
:26:49. > :26:53.Definitely shirtsleeves, maybe even shirtsleeves. I've gone completely
:26:54. > :26:57.mad. That could well be the case. If he had plans for tomorrow evening,
:26:58. > :27:03.it would be a good one for a barbecue. A bit of rain for a time
:27:04. > :27:07.as a weak weather front flips its way across us for Friday. The air is
:27:08. > :27:11.coming in from the side. At this time of year, that should be much
:27:12. > :27:17.closer to around 17 or 18 degrees or so. He we go, for the weekend. A
:27:18. > :27:20.showery day on Saturday, but if he had plans for the weekend and you
:27:21. > :27:22.want some dry weather, then Sunday is the day for you. Thanks very
:27:23. > :27:28.much, Phil. That's all from us. And that's all from us
:27:29. > :27:30.on an historic day, when the formal process for the UK's
:27:31. > :27:33.departure from the The Prime Minister is being
:27:34. > :27:36.interviewed by Andrew Neil From me and the team here,
:27:37. > :27:39.thanks for watching, I expect you'll want to become
:27:40. > :27:54.a schoolmaster? That's what most of the gentlemen
:27:55. > :27:56.does that get sent down for indecent behaviour.
:27:57. > :27:59.Evelyn Waugh's classic novel. Have you ever been in love,
:28:00. > :28:02.Mr Pennyfeather? No, not yet. The fire escape is very dangerous
:28:03. > :28:04.and never to be used, MasterChef is back, to find the
:28:05. > :28:17.country's best home chef. The MasterChef kitchen is alive once
:28:18. > :28:22.more. Come on, let's go!
