:01:59. > :02:01.today that that had fallen off, the trend has abated somewhat, but it
:02:02. > :02:05.was still an issue but it wasn't just about numbers to her mind
:02:06. > :02:10.because it was a very important signal to send, to address and make

:02:24. > :02:27.of the EU referendum. One day, I left my window open
:02:28. > :02:30.by mistake and when I came back, there were three kgs
:02:31. > :02:32.of tomatoes here on the window, kitchen shelf, floor
:02:33. > :02:34.on the wall, everywhere. Three kilograms of tomatoes thrown
:02:35. > :02:36.through your kitchen window? Then they started
:02:37. > :02:40.calling my husband names. By his beard, calling
:02:41. > :02:42.him Osama bin Ladin. They called your husband
:02:43. > :02:44.Osama bin Ladin? Yes. They smashed my car,
:02:45. > :02:51.they broke the car's windscreen... Her husband, Khalil, had to install
:02:52. > :02:56.CCTV to capture the intimidation. After presenting
:02:57. > :02:58.the evidence to police, Over the last five years, there's
:02:59. > :03:04.been an upward trend in the number of reported hate crimes
:03:05. > :03:07.across England and Wales. In London last year,
:03:08. > :03:10.there were more than 15,000 reports of racist abuse and over 1500
:03:11. > :03:15.Islamophobic reports. For many, the fear of becoming
:03:16. > :03:19.a victim is very real. I can hear swearing coming out
:03:20. > :03:22.or you can hear someone saying "Get out" or you can hear
:03:23. > :03:25.someone saying "Leave our country." It's why police are patrolling
:03:26. > :03:29.on foot around East London. A visible presence to
:03:30. > :03:34.reassure the community. Superintendent Waheed Khan
:03:35. > :03:37.is responsible for clamping down on and all of them are
:03:38. > :03:44.equally unacceptable. I think you can be online

:03:50. > :03:55.it could happen in the street, in a shop, but equally
:03:56. > :03:58.in the digital world. The war against hate crime
:03:59. > :04:01.on the Internet is being fought It was launched in April
:04:02. > :04:06.by Mayor Sadiq Khan and works closely with
:04:07. > :04:08.social media sites The police hope that this
:04:09. > :04:14.combined approach of street and cyber patrols will
:04:15. > :04:17.help to reassure London's diverse communities that they can
:04:18. > :04:33.live their lives without fear. The Commissioner, Cressida Dick,
:04:34. > :04:39.knows there is a perception here that needs to be tackled. She said
:04:40. > :04:43.today that the Met needs to work doubly hard to achieve confidence in
:04:44. > :04:49.Muslim communities. It is why today in the Fourier of the Metropolitan
:04:50. > :04:53.Police's headquarters here, she took part in an hour-long interview and
:04:54. > :04:57.falling with the BBC's Asian network with a big reach, of course, with a
:04:58. > :05:02.Muslim audience. She was making the point here that if the Met was seen
:05:03. > :05:05.to tackle and take so seriously the issue of Islamophobia, that was
:05:06. > :05:09.going to achieve the kind of confidence that then led to help in
:05:10. > :05:10.tackling extremism, the causes of terrorism.
:05:11. > :05:13.One of the ways that we can tackle extremism together is to ensure
:05:14. > :05:16.that Muslims, for example, feel protected and feel properly
:05:17. > :05:18.protected and that we are taking hate crime very, very
:05:19. > :05:21.seriously and I think, you know, if you look
:05:22. > :05:23.at the terrible attack in Finsbury Park,
:05:24. > :05:30.You know, we treated it as a terrorist incident.
:05:31. > :05:49.What she said was, you would start to see progress when Muslim people,
:05:50. > :05:53.news and communities felt they were able to influence their local
:05:54. > :05:58.police, understand their police and also join the police force. 8% of
:05:59. > :06:02.the Metropolitan Police currently are Muslim. London's Muslim
:06:03. > :06:07.communities about 18%. There is a gap there that she wants to achieve.
:06:08. > :06:11.The hope would then be that, of course, if you achieve that kind of
:06:12. > :06:17.level of confidence, you would just have that extra opportunity when
:06:18. > :06:20.somebody suspects or fears or just has a feeling about something that
:06:21. > :06:24.is not right in their community, a neighbour or a family member, they
:06:25. > :06:29.would be more confident about getting in contact with the police
:06:30. > :06:30.and expressing their concerns. OK, Tim. Many thanks. Tim Donovan,

:09:08. > :09:10.leaving their cars in residential to find their vehicles
:09:11. > :09:15.vandalised and graffitied. The problem's got so bad,
:09:16. > :09:29.the council is considering When the owners of this card
:09:30. > :09:33.returned from their holiday, this is what's waiting for them. Parked on a
:09:34. > :09:39.residential streets near Luton airport, for the past weeks. First
:09:40. > :09:43.came the graffiti, then a few days later, the vandalism. About two
:09:44. > :09:47.o'clock in the morning, we heard a thud, but out of our bedroom window
:09:48. > :09:51.and there were two lads, 15 or 16, jumping all over it and running at
:09:52. > :09:55.it and then they got on their bikes and drove off. Residents we have
:09:56. > :10:03.spoken to don't condone the vandalism, but they do understand
:10:04. > :10:07.the frustration. Icy tyres done, little airport parking, windscreen
:10:08. > :10:10.wipers broken off. I am not going to vandalise anybody's car, but I
:10:11. > :10:18.understand why it has been done. It is frustrating. We live here. Parked
:10:19. > :10:24.elsewhere. They are so bold, they move the columns or they push your
:10:25. > :10:27.card down to you fit. Someone has been writing notices for some time
:10:28. > :10:33.and it doesn't have gone further than that but then I came out here
:10:34. > :10:36.and I saw the side window had been done and I thought, well, seeing
:10:37. > :10:40.what has happened before, I had better get is reported to the
:10:41. > :10:44.council because once vandals and starts, it escalates. If you turn up
:10:45. > :10:49.at Luton, long-stay parking charges are ?25 a day for the first date and
:10:50. > :10:55.?21 a day after that. Pre-booking brings those prices down. Residents
:10:56. > :11:01.have told us that all of these cars have been here for some time, left
:11:02. > :11:05.by people with suitcases heading off to the airport and it's led to a lot
:11:06. > :11:09.of frustration and, in some places, vandalism. We have seen three cars
:11:10. > :11:12.vandalised here today. The police say they are powerless to do
:11:13. > :11:18.anything but the council is trying to take some action. The council has
:11:19. > :11:23.written to residents asking if they want a parking permit scheme. For
:11:24. > :11:29.less than a pound a week, they will get full coverage, protection and
:11:30. > :11:32.presents in the area by way of having the enforcement officers out
:11:33. > :11:37.there. Most residents told us it is unfair that they would have to pay
:11:38. > :11:41.to park outside their own homes because of airport passengers. Luton
:11:42. > :11:46.airport says it always advises passengers to park in on-site or
:11:47. > :11:50.off-site car parks, but with more airport expansion underway, the
:11:51. > :11:55.number of passengers preferring to par boys parking charges could yet

:13:44. > :13:46.what counts is that they are worth going for. At the requirement is
:13:47. > :13:50.that it's sufficiently gay, which is hilarious, but we don't want

:16:45. > :16:46.So, does she think the city will be one of those losers?
:16:47. > :16:49.I think that London will remain a very
:16:50. > :16:53.important financial centre, but at the same time,
:16:54. > :16:59.some people and some activities will be relocated
:17:00. > :17:04.It's not our choice and, of course, we take the opportunity

:17:23. > :17:26.It's close, it has always been so and also
:17:27. > :17:30.we suffered terrorist attacks and so there was a lot of

:18:08. > :18:10.An interesting insight there into the Ambassador's thoughts
:18:11. > :18:23.Yes, and it's very clear speaking to her that she thinks this is going to
:18:24. > :18:26.be detrimental to the UK and to London particularly in terms of a
:18:27. > :18:29.loss of influence on the world stage. Of course, there are many
:18:30. > :18:33.people in this city who will disagree with that viewpoint, but we
:18:34. > :18:36.know that to be the French position generally, so it is perhaps a great
:18:37. > :18:40.surprise. What was interesting during our chat was how little she
:18:41. > :18:48.felt that would impact on the human relationships between Christians and
:18:49. > :18:50.Londoners. She said we had a human bond, particularly after the terror

:18:55. > :18:58.thing she was most proud of during her two year terrible setting up the

:20:39. > :20:45.the same as I did and everyone else did. I remember in the individual
:20:46. > :20:49.primary school championships she won probably eight years ago now. She
:20:50. > :20:53.broke a new record in that. I remember a teacher up there saying
:20:54. > :20:57.to me, who do you think will win? I said the girl in lane for. They
:20:58. > :21:02.went, no, look at the girl next door, she is twice her size and
:21:03. > :21:05.younger. I said, just watch and basically, yeah, she ran a fantastic
:21:06. > :21:11.time and a teacher turned round and said to me, my God, she looks like a
:21:12. > :21:14.future Olympic champion. She is nearly there! Not far off. Let's
:21:15. > :21:18.speak to one of these young sprinters. You do heptathlon but 200
:21:19. > :21:24.metres as part of that. We say a lot in the media, is a cliche, or is she
:21:25. > :21:30.genuinely an inspiration? Definitely an inspiration. To have a great
:21:31. > :21:34.British sprinter like Dina on TV competing at the world-class shows
:21:35. > :21:37.kids like us that if you have the determination and commitment she
:21:38. > :21:41.has, you could be like her. Definitely an inspiration. When you
:21:42. > :21:46.see her running, what tips do you take from her? What you learn? She's
:21:47. > :21:51.really relaxed which he runs, so fluid and that is key especially in
:21:52. > :21:56.sprinting slaps a great tip. We shall see how she gets on tonight.
:21:57. > :22:00.Thank you very much. The heat are at 7:30pm, the 200 metres. If Dina
:22:01. > :22:04.Asher-Smith gets through, semifinals on Thursday night and then fingers
:22:05. > :22:09.crossed, everyone down here will be cheering her on, hoping she can get
:22:10. > :22:10.a Friday night's final. We certainly hope so. Thanks very much indeed,
:22:11. > :22:12.Chris. For more than 800 years
:22:13. > :22:14.the Abbey has stood a medieval masterpiece,
:22:15. > :22:18.largely untouched. So imagine the pressure
:22:19. > :22:20.of being responsible for a multi-million pound project
:22:21. > :22:23.to build a brand new tower alongside so visitors can access parts
:22:24. > :22:28.of the Abbey seldom seen before. Victoria Hollins has
:22:29. > :22:32.been to take a look. This isn't a journey many get
:22:33. > :22:35.to take and it transports us to a place few get to see -
:22:36. > :22:39.the top of Westminster Abbey and the hidden project changing
:22:40. > :22:42.the face of the church. Right here, we can see the roof
:22:43. > :22:46.of the access tower, so that's the herringbone pattern
:22:47. > :22:48.of the lead work which we're halfway
:22:49. > :22:50.through completing. This is the parapet
:22:51. > :22:56.of the tower going around here. This is the top of the
:22:57. > :22:59.new 120 foot tower to contain stairs and a lift, a new
:23:00. > :23:02.build to bring visitors It's very challenging
:23:03. > :23:07.project to be working on such a prestigious building,
:23:08. > :23:10.such a prestigious project, but using historic materials
:23:11. > :23:12.to be tied into the new materials that
:23:13. > :23:16.we've had to build the actual Do you feel the weight
:23:17. > :23:21.of history little bit here? It's an honour and a privilege to be
:23:22. > :23:24.doing it, but we definitely feel It will be a new museum
:23:25. > :23:31.and gallery allowing 300 objects from the Abbey's history
:23:32. > :23:37.to go on display for the first time. And this, in building
:23:38. > :23:39.terms, is the icing on the cake - a finial,
:23:40. > :23:42.the decorative lead polle matching those that have
:23:43. > :23:48.sat atop the other towers This is the first
:23:49. > :23:52.significant change to Westminster Abbey
:23:53. > :23:54.in nearly 300 years, but it's not just a change
:23:55. > :23:56.for the building. They will be a big change
:23:57. > :23:59.for visitors to because this is the rather unique view
:24:00. > :24:01.they'll get once they reach It's a view that hasn't changed
:24:02. > :24:06.hugely since the last It's been an architectural challenge
:24:07. > :24:12.to match old with new. The design intent for
:24:13. > :24:14.the architects, was to make this as discreet
:24:15. > :24:17.as possible, so they've glazed it all so
:24:18. > :24:20.basically you can look through What do you think Wren
:24:21. > :24:26.would think of all of this? I think the Wren would be
:24:27. > :24:29.very happy with this. Visitors will get the chance
:24:30. > :24:31.to decide for themselves when the tower and gallery open
:24:32. > :24:42.to the public next June. Let's get a check on the weather now
:24:43. > :24:53.and Lucy Martin has joined us. Not great weather, not feeling
:24:54. > :24:57.pitifully summery, but here in London we have largely got away with
:24:58. > :24:59.seeing the better of the weather. We have seen quite heavy, thundery
:25:00. > :25:03.showers across England today and even a few funnel clouds, Ouschan
:25:04. > :25:07.was where I was a bit further over to the east as they make their way
:25:08. > :25:11.up to the north is omitted the day. We have got away with seeing more in
:25:12. > :25:14.the way of dry weather. Doesn't look like we will be quite as lucky as we
:25:15. > :25:19.move into tomorrow though with some heavy outbreaks of rain along the
:25:20. > :25:23.way. Here's what's going on in the charts then. Low pressure moving up
:25:24. > :25:27.towards the north and then a weather front here that's going to sink a
:25:28. > :25:31.little bit towards the south-east. The very slowly and as it goes
:25:32. > :25:36.towards the south-east it will be in the great, bringing heavy outbreaks
:25:37. > :25:39.of rain. A yellow weather warning in-place valid until midnight
:25:40. > :25:44.tomorrow, heavy outbreaks of rain and showers could bring local
:25:45. > :25:47.disruption, flooding and tricky driving conditions. Through this
:25:48. > :25:50.evening then, some showery outbreaks of rain. A fair amount of cloud
:25:51. > :25:56.around with temperatures falling to an overnight low of around 10-13dC.
:25:57. > :26:00.We will see that rain pushing in from the north and west. Starting
:26:01. > :26:04.off with dry spells in the south and east first thing but the rain
:26:05. > :26:06.pushing in quite quickly from the north-west and bringing heavy
:26:07. > :26:10.outbreaks of rain and the odd rumble of thunder and flash of lightning
:26:11. > :26:14.knocked out of the question. Temperatures reaching a maximum of
:26:15. > :26:18.15 or 17 degrees is not feeling warm. The yellow weather warning
:26:19. > :26:22.could mean a localised flooding and tricky driving conditions. A ridge
:26:23. > :26:25.of high pressure does put in on Thursday and that means we will see
:26:26. > :26:28.something a bit drier and brighter. The weather front finally pushing
:26:29. > :26:32.out what the south-east, so a few showers possible in the morning but
:26:33. > :26:36.sunny spells developing into the afternoon. Temperatures reaching a
:26:37. > :26:39.maximum of 21 Celsius. That dry weather is still with us first thing
:26:40. > :26:43.on Friday, but it's not long before we see the rain pushing in from the
:26:44. > :26:48.north-west later in the day. More outbreaks of rain on the way. I will
:26:49. > :26:51.leave you with the outlook then. Very unsettled as we move through
:26:52. > :26:56.the next few days. You will want to have your umbrella at the ready.
:26:57. > :27:00.Stay indoors tomorrow? I would!
:27:01. > :27:02.Organisers of the World Athletics Championships
:27:03. > :27:05.at the London Stadium are trying to limit the spread of norovirus.
:27:06. > :27:09.It has already affected dozens of athletes and staff.
:27:10. > :27:12.A woman has escaped serious injury after appearing to be pushed
:27:13. > :27:15.by a jogger into the path of a bus on Putney Bridge.
:27:16. > :27:17.CCTV of the incident shows a man appear to shove
:27:18. > :27:24.The Met Police Commissioner has told the BBC that tackling hate crime
:27:25. > :27:28.and Islamophobia is one of the best ways of combating terrorism.
:27:29. > :27:30.Figures show hate crime has risen in the capital
:27:31. > :27:37.You're always welcome of course to get in touch
:27:38. > :27:40.And I'll be back later during the ten o'clock news.
:27:41. > :27:57.Thanks for joining us and have a lovely evening.

:28:03. > :28:20.But, at the same time, you are now nothing.
:28:21. > :28:23.An elite group - including scientists, pilots,
:28:24. > :28:26.surgeons and athletes - are about to go head-to-head
:28:27. > :28:28.to become the ultimate astronaut applicant.
:28:29. > :28:36.We keep raising the bar, and see who can keep getting over it.
