A former Met Commissioner says he's "disappointed" there'll be no trial | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
for the murder of PC Yvonne Fletcher. | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
He believes the public deserve an explanation. | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
I don't know what the reasons but I have to say the public I think will | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
be disappointed if they're not giving reasons this individual isn't | :00:23. | :00:23. | |
prosecuted. Also tonight, As the Liberal | :00:24. | :00:25. | |

London visas after Brexit? A woman who has terminal cancer, | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
tells us how she felt discriminated We catch up with the latest actors | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
to transform themselves into the Addams Family, | :00:37. | :00:51. | |
for a new musical production. Welcome to BBC London News, | :00:52. | :01:04. | |
with me Riz Lateef. PC Yvonne Fletcher was just 25 years | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
old when she was shot dead during a protest outside | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
the Libyan Embassy more Despite many investigations, | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
no one has ever been convicted for her murder, | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
and yesterday Scotland Yard said a key suspect had been released | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
and wouldn't be charged. Today, a former Met Commissioner has | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
told the BBC he's disappointed by the decision and says the public | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
deserves an explanation. Here's our home affairs | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
correspondent Nick Beake. A scramble for cover as shots ring | :01:34. | :01:48. | |
out in Central London. A 25 euros police officer, Yvonne Fletcher, is | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
hit by the folly of bullets. Scotland Yard believes it could | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
prove who was behind the killing at the Libyan embassy but that evidence | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
won't be presented in court because of concerns over national security. | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
It's a decision criticised by a former boss of the Met. My reaction | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
is disappointment. I know the hard work gone into trying to get a | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
prosecution and some of that has regenerated my time as commissioner | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
so I am disappointed and I know other people are. I don't know what | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
the reasons are but I think the public will be disappointed if we | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
are not given reasons for why this individual wasn't prosecuted. A man | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
in his 50s was arrested over the murder but now will not be | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
prosecuted. The Fletcher family say they are deeply disappointed and | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
frustrated. That is exactly how this retired police officer feels. He | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
cradled Yvonne Fletcher in his arms as she lay dying. It's terrible, so | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
disappointing and it is upsetting and we are full of anger about it. | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
This is something that should have been sorted out a long time ago. And | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
we really don't understand why they've come to this conclusion. The | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
bullets were fired from within the Libyan embassy which was surrounded | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
by the police for 11 days after the shooting. Eventually, diplomats and | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
others were allowed to leave and deported back to Libya, including, | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
it was thought, the killer. But it was only after Colonel Gaddafi's | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
regime was toppled in 2011 that detectives said they discovered | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
evidence of a Libyan plot to kill anti-Gaddafi demonstrators and | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
police officers at the protest. But with this suspect released without | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
charge now one former senior Met officer says there is little more | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
the police can do. The rule of law must prevail and in these difficult | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
cases if for whatever reason, and that explanation needs to be given, | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
we cannot prosecute, we will step back. Today the government refused | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
to comment on this decision to block a prosecution on grounds of national | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
security. So where are we tonight? 33 years after Yvonne Fletcher was | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
murdered at this spot, the chances of anyone being brought to justice | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
is seen as slim as ever. The Liberal Democrats have put | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
the capital's young people at the heart of their manifesto | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
with a promise of affordable housing through a new Rent to Own scheme | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
and an offer to restore housing They lost all but one of their MPs | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
in the last election and they're hoping this pitch to a younger | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
electorate will be enough to help Our political editor | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
Tim Donovan is in Bethnal Green where the party will officially | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
unveil their manifesto tonight. Their manifesto, pretty unusual way | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
of doing this. Not just the timing but the style. I think you can | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
notice that. And the place. This is Bethnal Green, described as an | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
evolving, multi-youth Art space. Not many people sitting down here. Beers | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
in their hands, you can hear the music and I think the Lib Dems are | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
trying to give the impression they are relative bit more hip than we | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
have thought in the past, not to say they are not offering conventional | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
policies. Aviation policy. They are one of the main parties saying they | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
will oppose Heathrow expansion. The Metropolitan Police, they will put | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
?60 million plus into the Met. Focus on community policing. What they are | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
offering for young people, they'd restore housing benefit for people | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
aged 18-21. And what Tim Farron will talk about is a signature policy on | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
housing which is an opportunity for young people to rent and a little | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
bit of that going into an equity, they build it up and they can buy | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
their home. People renting their home from a housing association, | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
that rent would go into a pot so they'd owned the house. If they | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
wanted to move, they could take that money into another pot so they'd buy | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
another home from a housing association. It would help young | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
people trying to get on the housing ladder. It might be very hip down | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
there but the key question is will all these policies appeal to young | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
people? I think it will be difficult to tell | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
in such a short space of time whether or not people will buy into | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
this rebranding but they've made their decision clear. I've talked to | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
young people not far from here and it doesn't seem to be working quite | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
yet among the younger group. No, I am a Labour girl. Would they never | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
win you over? No. To be honest, I've stuck by Labour because for the | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
younger generation, they are a lot more considered. I wouldn't. I don't | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
find their party interesting. You'd vote for the Lib Dems this time? | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
Why? They are moderate but they are the only parties saying anything on | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
behalf of the 40% who voted for the EU. Do you think the Lib Dems can | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
come back? It's unlikely at the moment, I'm not certain I am that | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
keen on their present leader. Different views, as he can see, | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
among older people, some of those who have been Labour supporters. I | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
think it might take some time for them to reconnect with younger | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
voters. Tim Farron is expected to take to the stage here at 7:15pm. I | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
think they'll have turned the music down by then. | :07:31. | :07:30. | |
I'm sure they will. Thank you. Well, as we heard there, | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
one of the promises made by the Lib Dems is to offer another | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
referendum on any Brexit deal, but is that an idea that | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
will appeal to Londoners? One think tank believes | :07:39. | :07:40. | |
the government should set up a visa system to continue attracting | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
the best of Europe to the capital. An idea our political | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
correspondent, Karl Mercer has Look what we found in | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
Southwark Park this morning. This is a city that attracts people | :07:49. | :08:02. | |
from across the world. And, today, Norwegians | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
in the capital were celebrating Norway of course isn't | :08:06. | :08:06. | |
in the European Union. But is part of the | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
European Economic Area. It means its citizens can travel | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
and work here visa free. Whatever happens after Brexit I hope | :08:17. | :08:28. | |
and most Norwegians hope that we will continue to have a close | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
relationship with our two nations. The main concern is we will struggle | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
to stay and struggle to work. That is the main concern. We don't know | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
yet. London as part of this country yet. London as part of this country | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
London Visa. What would that mean London Visa. What would that mean | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
about border controls and URLs? But that is along the lines of what | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
one London think-tank is suggesting. A range of visas post-Brexit | :08:56. | :08:56. | |
to keep the flow of people The Centre for London suggests | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
three types of visa. A city maker visa, lasting a year, | :09:00. | :09:02. | |
aimed at attracting A young European Visa, | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
a two year one aimed at attracting lower skilled staff for things | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
like the hospitality industry. And a new post study visa that | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
would allow higher skilled students We think there needs to be a way for | :09:11. | :09:21. | |
Europeans, particularly younger Europeans to come over here and look | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
for work, to create new jobs, to build businesses and contribute to | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
the economy. That should not have any bureaucracy with it. | :09:31. | :09:32. | |
All of which would appeal to Yalda, a 27-year-old producer at a media | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
Austrian, but who moved to London a year ago. | :09:36. | :09:43. | |
I am definitely anxious that I will have to leave or that it is going to | :09:44. | :09:51. | |
be a nightmare applying for a fees because I'd really like to stay. And | :09:52. | :09:58. | |
my lunch -- London is my home. It definitely keeps me up at night | :09:59. | :09:59. | |
sometimes. The biggest problem is if it is a | :10:00. | :10:13. | |
regional scheme, it would be a political issue, deciding which | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
regions are decided -- allocated to them and how is that determined? Who | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
can shout the loudest, I suppose. Discussions on Visas are some way | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
off, there's the small matter of an election first. | :10:31. | :10:32. | |
And, staying with the general election for a moment, | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
BBC London is hosting a special debate programme hearing | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
from all the main parties on what they will do | :10:38. | :10:38. | |

A second day of garage excavations in Thurrock has still not found any | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
trace of murdered schoolgirl Danielle Jones, according to police. | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
The 15-year-old went missing in June 2001 on her way to school. | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
Her uncle, Stuart Campbell, was convicted of her murder, | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
The police search was prompted after someone tipped them off | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
about some unusual activity at the site around the time | :11:09. | :11:10. | |

The international director of a group which provides advice | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
for people who it believes have been affected by the war on terror, | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
has been charged himself, under the Terrorism Act. | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
Muhammed Rabbani from East London was stopped at Heathrow Airport, | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
and refused to give the passwords to his laptop and mobile | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
Asad Ahmad has been following developments. | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
In November, Muhammed Rabbani, from Bethnal Green, arrived at Heathrow | :11:57. | :12:11. | |
from a trip from the Middle East. He said he was out there investigating | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
an alleged case of torture. Police approached him, asked for his mobile | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
phone and laptop which he freely gave him. The organisation he works | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
for, Cage, say he wasn't accused of any crime and was happy to answer | :12:26. | :12:27. | |
any questions about himself but didn't want to give any information | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
away about the client he'd been out to sea. He wouldn't give the | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
passwords to his devices because he says the laptop contained | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
information about the case he was looking into and he couldn't abuse | :12:45. | :12:46. | |
his client's confidentiality so please arrested him for wilfully | :12:47. | :12:55. | |
obstructing an investigation under the Terrorism Act. And what has | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
Muhammed Rabbani had to say? He says I'm innocent of the charges. He | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
says, I believe I'm doing what any reasonable person would do under the | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
circumstances in order to protect the privacy of a client. He says he | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
will fight this case in court next month. He has the full support of a | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
co-director at Cage who himself was interned at Guantanamo Bay for | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
nearly three years. He says, I know what it's like to be forced to give | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
your password to the authorities, I was tortured into surrounding mine. | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
This story is quickly spreading around the world, and some of the | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
websites I've looked at are critical of Met Police tactics. Scotland Yard | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
have said they arrested take place and given those details and that is | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
it but it is something we will keep a close eye on. OK, thanks very | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
much. Still to come this | :13:47. | :13:47. | |
Wednesday evening. I'm with this TV celebrity to hear | :13:48. | :13:57. | |
about his new musical. Here's a clue. | :13:58. | :14:06. | |
And it was humid again today and for some of us it was quite wet as well. | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
What do we have in the run-up to the weekend? All the details coming up. | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
Judea Bogles has terminal cancer, but she says her struggle has been | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
made worse by the discrimination she's felt because of her sexuality. | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
So much so, she's even gone as far as hiding the fact she's | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
I'm going to have a cup of tea today. And relax. Home from home for | :14:30. | :14:48. | |
Judea, visiting Saint joseph's Hospice in Hackney with a friend. | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
She's been receiving care since being diagnosed with terminal cancer | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
five years ago. She says the staff are excellent but that hasn't been | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
her experience elsewhere. I've been asked whether my partner is my | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
sister. Or just the uncomfortableness around our | :15:07. | :15:13. | |
relationship. Which is verging on sometimes homophobic. Judea feels | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
being gay has had a direct impact on the care she is received in the | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
past. I feel like sometimes it may jeopardise my care. Being out. I've | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
even lied in the past just for an easy life. And she's not alone. | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
According to experts, there is a culture of discrimination towards | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender patients living with a | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
terminal illness. We found the experiences of LGB TPP then London | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
reflected those of the wider nation, so they've had experiences which | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
were not always positive in health care. Imagine at the end of life | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
when you feel particularly vulnerable and you need your care | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
team to understand where you are, you don't need to feel you need to | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
conceal your sexuality or gender history. It also says individual | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
workers and organisations need to do more like additional training for | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
staff on diversity and discrimination, more LGB to | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
information, leaflets and posters visible in clinics and institutions. | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
Crucially, there is a call for more empathy and understanding for | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
same-sex relationships and the patient's partner. Judea says these | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
small changes would make a big difference and thanks to Saint | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
joseph's, her future isn't as bleak as it was. To have someone come into | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
my life that understands me, it is wonderful, it has made a huge | :16:46. | :16:47. | |
difference to my life. Next, they're now | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
through to what's dubbed Reading have reached | :16:52. | :16:53. | |
the Championship playoff final It means the club are a step closer | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
to the Premier League, which could be worth | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
millions to them. It is Reading who will | :17:02. | :17:03. | |
march out at Wembley! It's been an extraordinary | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
team effort for Reading This is what it means to be one | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
win away from promotion to the Premier League | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
and all of its riches after Reading's 1-0 victory | :17:21. | :17:22. | |
at the Madejski Stadium last night guaranteed them a place | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
in the Championship play-off final. The game was tight, 1-1 | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
from the first leg at Fulham. Well, it could mean | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
as much as ?200 million. That's the eye watering figure most | :17:33. | :17:46. | |
estimates claim the club could earn from one season in | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
the Premier League. But, of course, there's | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
still one game to go. It's great to be at Wembley, | :17:53. | :17:54. | |
to play over there. I've been there in my | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
career, of course. As a manager to go back | :17:58. | :17:59. | |
there and play, of course, it's a different stadium but, | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
you know, a lot at stake. Great prize that you | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
can win for the club. Immediately after the game, | :18:09. | :18:12. | |

on the 29th of May. But elsewhere Watford parting | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
company with their head coach. Not really. When you consider | :19:01. | :19:14. | |
Watford have changed manager at the end of the last three seasons now, | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
last summer it was key Kate Sanchez Flores who departed, despite taking | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
the club into the semifinals and keeping them in the Premier League. | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
Then another manager gone, despite taking them into the Premier League. | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
The club has been owned by family since 2012 and their next | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
appointment will be their ninth in five seasons. They are 16th in the | :19:40. | :19:42. | |
Premier League, they won't be relegated but it isn't enough to | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
keep the current manager in his post. He will leave the final game | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
against Manchester City on Sunday, something Arsenal fans are not happy | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
about because they are in a race to finish in the top four with | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
Manchester City. Watford confirmed today what people expected. After | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
the board discussed the future goals and aspirations, it was decided the | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
manager would be stepping down and we thank Walter for his | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
contribution. The next? We will wait and see. | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
And you might remember them from the films, | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
But now the Addams Family are taking to the stage | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
with a new musical production, starring Les Dennis | :20:29. | :20:30. | |
Alice Bhandhukravi has been to meet the actors backstage. | :20:31. | :20:43. | |
It's been a much loved TV series since the 1960s, | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
And now the musical is preserving the spooky family's cult status. | :20:47. | :21:05. | |
Sam Womack plays the matriarch of the family so I went to speak | :21:06. | :21:08. | |
to her as she got her make-up on for the show. | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
It's a really nice insight into the Addams family | :21:12. | :21:13. | |
as you haven't seen them before cos it's as they are facing a crisis. | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
So, Wednesday's older, she is falling in love | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
And it's the first time Gomez and Mortitia have had, | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
For Sam, the process of putting on her ghostly make up | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
and wig is very much part of the transformation into Mortitia. | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
And, next door, Uncle Fester, or as we like to call him Les Dennis. | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
I've gone from being dead in Coronation Street | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
Were you a fan of the Addams family in its various guises? | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
When I was a kid comedy TV series, the original black | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
I tried to bring my own Fester to the stage. | :21:56. | :22:05. | |
But this is what I also do because he's in love with the moon | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
His head should look a bit moon like. | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
I will play around with that for a while but their years, | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
So, let's go and see how Sam's transformation is going. | :22:16. | :22:28. | |
And so are Wednesday, Gomez and not forgetting Thing. | :22:29. | :22:51. | |
I will have that tune in my head for a while! | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
Let's get a check weather with Jay Wynne. | :22:55. | :23:00. | |
We started out pretty warm and humid today and then the rain started to | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
spread its way in from the West. This was taken by one of our weather | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
watchers just outside new broadcasting house, showing the | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
umbrellas. Here is the raider from today which shows that marriage on | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
-- most of the rain has been out in the West but it has spread across | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
the whole of our region and it is heavy in places and very nasty on | :23:25. | :23:27. | |
the roads and pavements with a few rumbles of thunder. It is on the | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
move and as we get towards the small hours of the morning, it clears to | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
the east and we get the breeze coming in after the rain. It will be | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
a much fresh start today. This morning, we were at 16. Tomorrow, | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
single figures so a much fresh start to the day and it will feel a good | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
deal fresher through tomorrow as well and it will be a decent day, a | :23:51. | :23:58. | |
good day for getting out and about. It might start a little bit cloudy | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
across eastern areas but it doesn't take long to clear away. We have | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
sunshine coming through, the cloud increases and there is a chance of a | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
shower, but it is mostly to the north and west of our region. | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
Temperatures 17-19 but with some sunshine, it will feel warm but not | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
as humid as it has been recently. For the end of the week, we start to | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
see this weather system coming up from the south, just a glancing blow | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
on Friday morning with some cloud and outbreaks of rain which clear | :24:32. | :24:36. | |
away. We see a bit of sunshine and showers developing later on in the | :24:37. | :24:39. | |
day so it won't be raining all day everywhere but there will be some | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
rain at times on Friday. And some places will be up at 16-17. | :24:44. | :24:52. | |
Saturday, starts chilly but it will be a reasonable day with a niche -- | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
with a few showers but some try spells as well. We see temperatures | :24:59. | :25:04. | |
up to 18 or so. Looking ahead, well, on Friday, some rain at times. | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
Saturday, a good chance of staying dry with the potential of a shower. | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
By Sunday, another dry day with temperatures up to 19. If you're | :25:15. | :25:15. | |
lucky, 20. Back to you. The Liberal Democrats have | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
launched their manifesto today, with a pledge to offer another | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
