:01:16. > :01:20.The first full meeting of the council is taking place
:01:21. > :01:23.at the Town Hall as we speak and that's where can
:01:24. > :01:28.join our political correspondent, Karl Mercer.
:01:29. > :01:36.Already a huge presence there? Yeah, the meeting is about to start
:01:37. > :01:40.in the next few moments but what you can see behind me, the noisy and

:01:44. > :01:48.hold a meeting here three weeks ago, it had to be abandoned because be
:01:49. > :01:54.protest inside and outside. Let us win the camera around. You can see a
:01:55. > :01:58.demonstration here, more quiet. Plenty of members of the media here
:01:59. > :02:04.covering this. The committee have plenty of questions about why more
:02:05. > :02:09.was not done to help those after the Grenfell Tower, white Moore wasn't
:02:10. > :02:15.done to protect them before and what is going to be do in the future.
:02:16. > :02:18.Those are some of the questions that inside they will be attempting to
:02:19. > :02:22.answer to night that the public here are saying, what we do not want its
:02:23. > :02:24.promises and words, what we now need is action.
:02:25. > :02:26.Five weeks on, a symbol of a community supported remains on

:02:41. > :02:43.now calling for the whole council to step down and
:02:44. > :02:51.What it has done to community trust is so, you know, off the scale
:02:52. > :02:54.that we need an off the scale response and I believe that
:02:55. > :02:57.actually at this point the only thing
:02:58. > :02:59.that is likely to even begin to bring back confidence
:03:00. > :03:06.So, this is the sort of place that you think
:03:07. > :03:12.You can see the tower from here, but new homes are
:03:13. > :03:19.being built and you think they should go the locals.
:03:20. > :03:22.New homes are being built in the area.
:03:23. > :03:25.The local Labour leader wants them sped up and set aside

:03:33. > :03:34.I can say, here's our list, you were given the list
:03:35. > :03:39.And if we can't, tell us why we can't have them.
:03:40. > :03:41.It's a demand heard last week too at one of the many
:03:42. > :03:50.The new council leader promising change.
:03:51. > :04:02.She'll do the same tonight, saying council savings
:04:03. > :04:05.will be used for social housing and apologising again for
:04:06. > :04:15.Locals like Nahid Ashby and others aren't convinced those promises
:04:16. > :04:20.The majority of them will be built off plan by property
:04:21. > :04:24.speculators and investors and it's either going to be rented out to
:04:25. > :04:31.people at, you know, higher prices or they are going to be left empty.

:04:47. > :04:50.What happens here in one of the country's richest areas
:04:51. > :04:52.will be closely watched by those directly affected by the fire
:04:53. > :05:07.We believe the meeting has just started inside. Questions raised in
:05:08. > :05:11.the peace we put out will be answered. Hopefully by the new
:05:12. > :05:15.council leader Elizabeth Campbell. You can see some of the pictures
:05:16. > :05:19.there inside, it looks sombre at the moment, very different to the
:05:20. > :05:22.meeting three weeks ago which ended with the then council leader thing
:05:23. > :05:26.he did not hold the meeting because there were too many protests and
:05:27. > :05:31.then he reside a couple of days later. As for what what happened
:05:32. > :05:35.tonight, we believe the new council leader Elizabeth Campbell will once
:05:36. > :05:39.again apologise to the community saying no ifs, no buts, we did not
:05:40. > :05:45.do well enough, says she is deeply sorry. She's sale she will go to
:05:46. > :05:50.become to ask for more money to pay for social housing saying the
:05:51. > :05:54.council's reserves of ?230 million went actually paid to the whole
:05:55. > :05:58.bill. We understand the new chief executive I the dazzle will be
:05:59. > :06:02.elected, he came on as an interim Chief Executive that we think he
:06:03. > :06:06.will be confirmed in nappies to night and will then start the
:06:07. > :06:12.process of recruiting his new top team from around the country, I am
:06:13. > :06:14.told, to help deliver services here in Kensington and Chelsea much
:06:15. > :06:18.better in the future. I know you are going to follow
:06:19. > :06:19.developments there. More from you in Kensington later.
:06:20. > :06:24.You're watching BBC London News, coming up later in the programme:

:06:45. > :06:48.That's despite the Met saying it 'can and will'
:06:49. > :06:52.This programme was the first to reveal how criminals were trying
:06:53. > :06:54.to escape arrest by riding without a helmet -

:06:58. > :07:12.Moped gangs targeting mobile phones and other people's bikes, sometimes

:07:34. > :07:36.Stevie nasty people who absolutely have no concern about any
:07:37. > :07:41.enforcement. They are roving the sheet is as high when men dead in
:07:42. > :07:45.the 18th-century with absolutely impunity. Catching them is made
:07:46. > :07:47.harder by the fact that they take off their helmets, believing
:07:48. > :07:56.officers are less likely to pursue them. As we got no lead? The Met in
:07:57. > :08:12.says officers can and will give chase.
:08:13. > :08:18.But in practice, that is not what some officers are doing, arguing
:08:19. > :08:23.they would be risking their careers ever suspect without a helmet were
:08:24. > :08:26.to be injured in a chase. Should an incident happen, should certain

:08:35. > :08:38.they have families, mortgages and lies to live and they do not want to
:08:39. > :08:40.put themselves in that position. Today, it is emerged that a
:08:41. > :08:47.16-year-old on a motorbike who collided with a police car has died.
:08:48. > :08:52.In these cases, the IPCC is now investigating.
:08:53. > :08:55.Well, let's get more from Asad who's at Scotland Yard now,
:08:56. > :08:58.because we even hearing some people are taking the law
:08:59. > :09:09.That is right. Just yesterday we saw moped riders gathered in Parliament
:09:10. > :09:15.Square calling upon the government and also the Metropolitan Police
:09:16. > :09:18.Service to take firm action to stop mopeds crime. It seems some
:09:19. > :09:23.motorbike riders are not willing to wait for action to be taken, they
:09:24. > :09:27.want action now say they are calling upon riders to form what you would
:09:28. > :09:31.properly call vigilantes motorbike groups to take on the criminals
:09:32. > :09:35.directly. Earlier today we saw a poster which encourage riders to
:09:36. > :09:43.join forces and a asked them, had your bike stolen recently? Sort
:09:44. > :09:46.them, come hunting. We do not know how many people have called the
:09:47. > :09:52.number at the bottom at that pace but we do know that that poster taps
:09:53. > :09:57.into a growing feeling among bikers. News today of an impending
:09:58. > :10:00.recruitment crisis at the Met? We know the match by the police has
:10:01. > :10:07.been under enormous amount of pressure over the past three months,
:10:08. > :10:10.not only policing London but with the terror attacks we have had a
:10:11. > :10:15.London and also the Grenfell Tower fire. The Deputy Commissioner has
:10:16. > :10:18.written to recently retired police officers over the past two years and
:10:19. > :10:21.people who are currently on career breaks and he said to them, is there
:10:22. > :10:26.a way which you could come back and help us through this difficult
:10:27. > :10:30.situation using your experience and know-how to get us through this
:10:31. > :10:34.tough time? He has had a good response to those letters. The Met
:10:35. > :10:38.Police Federation is also supporting the Deputy Commissioner with that
:10:39. > :10:42.call. Ken Marsh, the chairman, he spoke to the London assembly just
:10:43. > :10:45.today and he told them that officers are currently feeling as if they are
:10:46. > :10:49.under braking point because of the enormous amount of work they are
:10:50. > :10:52.having to deal with. The Home Office ain't getting retired officers back
:10:53. > :10:57.as much a matter for Scotland Yard so we could be months, even weeks
:10:58. > :10:59.away from seeing ex-police officers becoming police officers once again.
:11:00. > :11:01.Thank you. If you're a student in London,
:11:02. > :11:04.you're more likely to drop out of university in their first year -
:11:05. > :11:07.than anywhere else in the country. In fact, in the capital, one in ten
:11:08. > :11:10.fail to complete their course. New figures also suggest that black
:11:11. > :11:13.students are a third more likely to drop out -
:11:14. > :11:15.as are those from Toby Walker dropped out of
:11:16. > :11:24.an English degree when he decided it wouldn't lead to
:11:25. > :11:26.the career he wanted. It took me until my second year
:11:27. > :11:30.to work out that I really wanted to leave it because it
:11:31. > :11:32.was so much money. He says there wasn't much guidance
:11:33. > :11:34.on choosing a course, high housing and tuition costs mean
:11:35. > :11:39.he lives with his mum in Greenwich. He says students are
:11:40. > :11:41.under huge pressure. Universities, I feel,
:11:42. > :11:49.are treating us as the product which our parents are buying
:11:50. > :11:52.and if we don't succeed bought for us, then we are failing
:11:53. > :11:56.and because we are the thing that they are paying for,
:11:57. > :11:58.we feel like failures. In fact, new research shows one
:11:59. > :12:01.in ten London students We know that costs of
:12:02. > :12:05.living in London are quite high and we also know that
:12:06. > :12:08.quite a high proportion of students in London commute from home, so that
:12:09. > :12:12.may mean they have less time to do their studies, it might mean also
:12:13. > :12:16.that they are less engaged Researchers say some
:12:17. > :12:23.universities, such as here at UCL, are doing much
:12:24. > :12:25.better than others. But they found overall London's
:12:26. > :12:27.students tended to be less satisfied with their courses and
:12:28. > :12:30.that black students are a third more The reality is we may be
:12:31. > :12:37.getting through the door, but we are definitely
:12:38. > :12:38.not staying there. We are having to take on more more
:12:39. > :12:41.like part-time paid work, students aren't able
:12:42. > :12:44.to enjoy university, they do not have a sense
:12:45. > :12:46.of affiliations to university Plenty of work, of course,
:12:47. > :12:51.has gone into encouraging more You may remember Tony Blair
:12:52. > :12:56.had a target of 50%. But researchers say there's little
:12:57. > :12:59.point in continuing to push students to sign up
:13:00. > :13:02.if they then drop out. The focus, they say,
:13:03. > :13:08.now needs to change. Their report recommends
:13:09. > :13:10.new government targets. This time to reduce the dropout rate
:13:11. > :13:13.among black students. It says the mayor could
:13:14. > :13:15.use his new skills task force to look at how to help and it calls
:13:16. > :13:19.on universities and schools to do more to prepare students
:13:20. > :13:21.for what lies ahead. London boasts some of the top
:13:22. > :13:24.universities in the world, the challenge now to encourage students
:13:25. > :13:46.not just to sign up, For anyone living with a loved one
:13:47. > :13:56.with dementia, could a trial help transform their home life?
:13:57. > :14:01.GPS tracking devices, body monitors and sensor pads are all used to keep
:14:02. > :14:03.someone with their condition say. But also give a better insight into
:14:04. > :14:05.how it's progressing. Inside John aand Marion Edwards'
:14:06. > :14:08.home, more than a dozen devices designed to monitor John's health
:14:09. > :14:10.and activity around the clock. He was diagnosed with dementia
:14:11. > :14:16.just over two years ago. If I do fall over, this will send a
:14:17. > :14:21.signal to the monitoring centre to note that I have fallen over and
:14:22. > :14:22.they will send somebody to pick me up, hopefully.
:14:23. > :14:25.It's all part of the clinical trial designed to
:14:26. > :14:27.improve the lives of people living with dementia and their carers.
:14:28. > :14:34.All the information gathered can be remotely monitored and if the
:14:35. > :14:36.technology identifies a health or safety concern,
:14:37. > :14:41.The couple say it has transformed their lives.
:14:42. > :14:47.I feel a lot safer for John and myself as well because I know there
:14:48. > :14:52.is somebody that the whole time who are looking out for us. She goes to
:14:53. > :15:01.choir practice twice a week. It is only once. It seems like twice. She
:15:02. > :15:02.can go out and know somebody is looking after me if something does
:15:03. > :15:03.go wrong. And this is where all
:15:04. > :15:05.the information is monitored. The Surrey And Borders
:15:06. > :15:15.Partnership NHS Foundation Based on the data we get here, we
:15:16. > :15:19.decide if the person is stable or not, do they need to see their
:15:20. > :15:22.doctors, is there an emergency going on.
:15:23. > :15:24.The trial is proving promising so far
:15:25. > :15:28.and the hope is that it will eventually be rolled out nationally.
:15:29. > :15:34.I dig the fact we are able to connect through these devices and
:15:35. > :15:36.look at the information together, it is ground-breaking. Shall we do the
:15:37. > :15:38.temperature? Today is the Edwards' 48
:15:39. > :15:40.wedding anniversary. Marion says the trial has
:15:41. > :15:54.helped John to become more Your glass half empty person, I tend
:15:55. > :15:56.to be a glass half full person. But this is how to go the other way.

:16:19. > :16:22.The weather puts an urgent matter display across the capital last
:16:23. > :16:27.night. Things are changeable over the next few days. Probably not as
:16:28. > :16:32.much drama as theirs. I will have the details later in the programme.
:16:33. > :16:34.It was only this week that Camden's Sophie Kamlish won

:17:39. > :17:42.taking part in things with your friends,
:17:43. > :17:44.it will be much, much, much more difficult.
:17:45. > :17:47.Because the running blades have been made, they're
:17:48. > :17:51.a little blade like that and they've got a little sole on the end
:17:52. > :17:53.so they're actually very good for everyday use.
:17:54. > :17:56.Ben Moore was one of the first to get a new blade paid for

:17:59. > :18:06.The spring of it is the bit that makes me go faster.
:18:07. > :18:09.I used to not be able to, like, be able to run as fast or able

:18:26. > :18:28.amputations or limb deficiencies in the UK.
:18:29. > :18:33.So far, it says, about 120 have used the fund to get activity blades.
:18:34. > :18:36.But children do grow out of the blades quickly and charities say
:18:37. > :18:45.It would be terrible to have given them, started off with this blade
:18:46. > :18:48.and then say, "I'm really sorry, but you can't have it again.
:18:49. > :18:55.You are back to now not being able to jump

:20:38. > :20:52.And with rent at ?300 a month, it is cheap compared to the average
:20:53. > :20:57.But one question remains - what do they do when they need the loo?
:20:58. > :20:59.We have a good agreement with some local pubs.
:21:00. > :21:12.Returning now to our top story because the full council meeting
:21:13. > :21:16.since the Grenfell tragedy has been taking place at
:21:17. > :21:27.Let us take a look. Live pictures from inside the chamber, looking
:21:28. > :21:32.very quiet, not a lot happening. It looks like they are waiting for the
:21:33. > :21:37.meeting to begin. Let us cross slide back to our political correspondent.
:21:38. > :21:44.He has been following this story. He is outside the town hall.
:21:45. > :21:48.As you can see, the protest still going on behind. A little quieter
:21:49. > :21:52.than it was just about half an hour ago but still continuing and I guess
:21:53. > :21:56.they are waiting for the meeting to get underway inside. Once it gets
:21:57. > :21:59.underway, we know the group also we have identified 160 homes in the
:22:00. > :22:04.borough where we think Grenfell Tower victims could be house. We
:22:05. > :22:08.know that the new leader, Elizabeth Campbell, will once again apologise,
:22:09. > :22:12.say we did not do and say we are going to government to ask for more
:22:13. > :22:17.money. A task force, some experts will be sent in by the government
:22:18. > :22:24.within days and not weeks to help the council in its recovery efforts.
:22:25. > :22:26.But as we all know, this is a tragedy that the shutouts beyond the
:22:27. > :22:30.street think editing, touched many parts of London and today the latest
:22:31. > :22:31.example of that with a new moral inspired by the works of the
:22:32. > :22:45.novelist and poet and Cree. This is the poem I wrote called
:22:46. > :22:51.Grenfell Tower June 20 17. It was like a burnt matchbox in the
:22:52. > :23:00.sky. It was black and long and burnt in the sky. You saw it through the
:23:01. > :23:03.flowering stump of trees, you saw it through the spire of the church. You
:23:04. > :23:12.saw it through the tears of those who survived.
:23:13. > :23:17.I am a street artist. The poem is really moving and really sad
:23:18. > :23:25.uninspiring and found online that kind of really touched me. -- really
:23:26. > :23:34.sad and inspiring. It was a positive line, to inspire remembering what
:23:35. > :23:38.happened will stop. The voices here will speak for the dead. Speak for
:23:39. > :23:43.the dead. Speak for the dead. See their pictures lined the walls,
:23:44. > :23:47.poverty is its own colour, its own race. They were Muslim and
:23:48. > :23:56.Christian, black and white and colours in between. In this age of
:23:57. > :24:05.austerity, the poor die for others's prosperity. Nurseries and libraries
:24:06. > :24:14.fade from the land. A strange time each shebeen of the Strand. Fate
:24:15. > :24:17.hangs over the deftness of power. CB tower and let a world changing Fort
:24:18. > :24:24.flower. That was the poet Ben now. Seems to be a calmer
:24:25. > :24:26.day after an eventful night weather wise -
:24:27. > :24:36.let's get the latest from Ben Rich. Things have calmed down nicely now
:24:37. > :24:41.but last night, things were far from calm. Nature put on quite a display
:24:42. > :24:45.across the capital, numerous pictures of lightning. A lot of like
:24:46. > :24:49.being in the sky as the thunderstorms move through. Weather
:24:50. > :24:53.Watchers getting into the act. That was the scene across Chelsea, plenty
:24:54. > :24:57.of lightning running from cloud to cloud there. Lovely view over the
:24:58. > :25:02.city. This impressive shot comes from close to Heathrow and look at
:25:03. > :25:07.this from Reigate, this fork of lightning touching down onto the
:25:08. > :25:12.ground. Some relief this thunderstorms and a lot of rain as
:25:13. > :25:15.well. This first on that move to the north-west of London. That one
:25:16. > :25:18.really meant business and then a lot of storms that pushed him from the
:25:19. > :25:22.south coast. Probably these that woke you up, if you did have a rude
:25:23. > :25:27.awakening during the early hours. As we said at the start, things have
:25:28. > :25:31.calmed down considerably. Tonight is much quieter. One or two showers but
:25:32. > :25:39.these are unlikely to give as much in the. Still quite warm, quite
:25:40. > :25:42.muggy, 16, 17 Celsius. Quite humid stop to tomorrow morning, with some
:25:43. > :25:47.showers around but as we go on to the day, the showers will march away
:25:48. > :25:50.eastwards. The cloud moving back from the map, some styles of
:25:51. > :25:58.sunshine by the afternoon. As that sunshine works its way in, we will
:25:59. > :26:03.see some cooler, fresher air working its way in as well. 21, 20 three
:26:04. > :26:07.Celsius. Friday, brings the beginning of a change. An area of
:26:08. > :26:10.low pressure pushing into sway in from the Atlantic. At this stage,
:26:11. > :26:15.most of the wet weather will be in the west of the country. Not a bad
:26:16. > :26:19.day files on Friday, some spells of sunshine, a bit of patchy cloud and
:26:20. > :26:25.cloud increasing from the west later in the day. A breezy, blustery day
:26:26. > :26:28.but without fresher feel. 20 to 22 Celsius. It stays cool and fresh
:26:29. > :26:34.into the weekend. Some sunshine, some rain at times. Much,. -- much
:26:35. > :26:39.calmer. Is that what is known as a mixed
:26:40. > :26:42.bag? The government has announced that
:26:43. > :26:46.people in their early 40s now will have to work a year longer
:26:47. > :26:53.as a result of a change Kensington and Chelsea is holding
:26:54. > :27:03.its first full council meeting since the Grenfell fire last month.
:27:04. > :27:08.Councillors will debate a petition with more than 1500 signatures
:27:09. > :27:10.calling for the resignation of the 30's entire elected leadership.
:27:11. > :27:13.More from us during the ten o'clock news.
:27:14. > :27:15.You're always welcome to join the conversation
:27:16. > :27:18.From me and the team, thanks for watching
