The whole of London, they support their own. They probably didn't know | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
how I was in the beginning. But as long as you have the British vest | :00:58. | :01:04. | |
on, when you mention your name, the whole crowd roars. Walk on by... | :01:05. | :01:07. | |

First tonight, officially scrapped. | :01:13. | :01:30. | |
The Garden Bridge Project has been abandoned - | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
costing taxpayers up to 46 million pounds. | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
The landscaped pedestrian walkway over the Thames was a pet project | :01:35. | :01:36. | |
of the former Mayor, Boris Johnson - | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
supported by the former Chancellor George Osborne. | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
They both committed large amounts of public money to it. | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
But last year the Mayor Sadiq Khan ordered a review into its finances. | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
Today, the Trust behind the project blamed his lack of support | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
Our transport correspondent Tom Edwards has the story. | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
You've been following this from the beginning? | :01:56. | :02:04. | |
Five years we have been following this story. If you don't know, the | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
bridge was going to be built from Temple tube station right across the | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
River Thames to the South bank. Not any more. Today, the Garden bridge | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
was abandoned. The garden bridge is dead, leaving | :02:20. | :02:31. | |
behind questions about taxpayer money which has been spent on it. | :02:32. | :02:41. | |
Campaigners are happy but angry. The trust project spent money without | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
telling us what they were spending it on. They have kept everything | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
behind closed doors and have not been transparent. It is entirely | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
their own doing. One of the issues was it was never really a transport | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
project, it was more a tourist attraction. Campaigners said it was | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
in completely the wrong place. So far, ?37.4 million of taxpayer money | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
has been spent on this project. That could increase to ?46.4 million. And | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
there are bound to be further questions and further scrutiny about | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
that waste of money. Those funds were signed off by the previous | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
mayor, Boris Johnson, and the then Chancellor, George Osborne. And even | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
early on, it never had political consensus. This whole thing is a | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
load of cobblers. You cannot bear the idea that this project is going | :03:40. | :03:48. | |
ahead. The former mayor has said Sadiq Khan should've made a project | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
work. And today the garden bridge trust also blamed the current mayor | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
for a lack of support. He changed his mind after a scathing review. | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
His opponents accuse him of dithering. He had all the | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
information he needed to take a decision in May last year. But he | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
didn't have the courage or conviction to take that conviction. | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
He has just waited. In that time, we have spent ?9 million of taxpayer | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
money. My question is, how do we get the mayor to make a decision more | :04:23. | :04:32. | |
quickly. The Mayor disputes that and said he cannot leave London is open | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
to unlimited costs. Others say the garden bridge was always a vanity | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
project. ?50 million of taxpayer money has been spent with nothing to | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
show Fred apart from some glossy press releases and furious local | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
communities. We have to look at where the blame lies for this | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
project. I think the lion's share of the blame has to go to Boris | :04:58. | :05:06. | |
Johnson. I think he has questions to answer. The garden bridge has been | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
abandoned. But the fallout from this embarrassing infrastructure failure | :05:12. | :05:12. | |
is far from over. This is the editorial from the | :05:13. | :05:35. | |
London standard. It says it is a sad day for London. There has been | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
another development tonight. A group of Labour councillors and a Labour | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
MP are calling for a full public enquiry. | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
Thank you. Coming up later in the programme: | :05:47. | :06:01. | |
The unique opportunity for these London students restoring ancient | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
carvings for Southwark Cathedral. Armed officers in the Met are to be | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
issued with head-mounted cameras in an attempt to address concerns | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
about the transparency They'll be attached to the caps | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
and protective helmets of members Glock pistol, MP five automatic | :06:15. | :06:31. | |
rifle and now the acts and Fleck camera. The message, with power | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
comes responsibility. At the unveiling today, officers | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
overwhelmingly welcomed it. I think it is great to have an independent | :06:40. | :06:48. | |
witness. There is the evidential benefits, so in court or during an | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
investigation, there can be no doubt on where you were standing or what | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
an individual said. Already, thousands of cameras have been | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
issued to officers across the Metropolitan Police force. Now it is | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
the turn was uniformed or overworked firearms officers. This has not been | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
without its problems. There were concerns the view of a camera worn | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
on the body would be skewered by a weapon. The solution is to make the | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
camera on the head. You decide how clear the view is when a two-handed | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
rifle is used instead automatic of a pistol. We are keen to capture the | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
build-up to the point. Conversations that take place, threats that they | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
face. That is what we are keen to capture, to demonstrate why an | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
officer ultimately took a decision to pull the trigger. It is often | :07:50. | :08:04. | |
hope that if lots of officers feel to turn the camera on, it won't | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
matter because other officers will have it. Covert officers will not | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
have to release cameras yet. The Met say that to do so it would pull | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
their cover. PC they are working on it. We want to show the public what | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
officers were faced with and the action they took. At the moment, we | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
are not there with the covert solution, but we are working hard in | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
the background. That is why the Met are investing so heavily in | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
body-worn cameras. Describing this as the largest such roll-out by any | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
police force in the world. Next tonight, a warning that around | :08:46. | :09:01. | |
20,000 vulnerable children in London have potentially dangerous home | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
lives, but are not receiving the help they need because they | :09:05. | :09:06. | |
are not deemed to be The charity, Action for Children | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
says the youngsters are stuck in what it calls a "revolving door" | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
of children's services. Here's our Education | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
Reporter Marc Ashdown. It was the case which prompted | :09:15. | :09:16. | |
the largest review of child Victoria Climbie, | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
an eight-year-old murdered by those Early warnings of | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
the abuse she suffered 17 years on, it is feared thousands | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
of vulnerable children are still being left | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
in potentially dangerous situations. Debbie started working in children's | :09:29. | :09:29. | |
services just after this case. She helps families with everything | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
from behavioural problems But she says it is becoming harder | :09:33. | :09:34. | |
to provide the support needed. Across the sites I run, I've got | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
just under 2500 under fives. So as much as we do, | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
there is a lot that we can possibly do because we can't be | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
everywhere at once. So, you know, we are already aware | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
of families we are not picking up. And it's only going to | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
get worse than that. The charity Action for Children | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
asked local authorities about the number of children | :10:00. | :10:01. | |
referred to them after concerns It found about 180,000 | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
in England were not deemed to be at crisis point, | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
so didn't meet the In London, about 23,000 | :10:10. | :10:11. | |
children were referred, but after an assessment | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
it was deemed no further There are still soft services | :10:18. | :10:19. | |
available, like children's centres Across the capital, | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
nearly 20,000 children So, just one in five | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
of those originally referred We know from too many cases | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
that if we are not able to help children early, | :10:34. | :10:46. | |
then there are strong likelihoods For example, in Serious Case | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
Reviews, 70% of the time, we know there have been | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
early warning signs. But we also know if we give children | :10:55. | :10:56. | |
and families the tools to help themselves much earlier, | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
they are much more likely to not Differing thresholds from council | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
to council were highlighted. Depending on location help might be | :11:03. | :11:16. | |
provided in one area, but in a neighbouring Bahrain might | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
be deemed unnecessary. We have been hit by a double whammy | :11:20. | :11:21. | |
of major government cuts to our massive funding pressures | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
facing local government The Department for Education Xavier | :11:26. | :11:27. | |
taking action by reforming social The Department for Education say | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
they are taking action care services and better protecting | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
victims of domestic It says councils spent almost | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
?8 billion last year on children's social care, | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
but it wants to help them do more. And Marc joins me now - | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
as we heard there, cases involving these vulnerable children can have | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
tragic consequences? That is right. Of the often start | :11:52. | :12:01. | |
with something very minor like a teacher flagging up that a child is | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
late or falls asleep in class. Social services would assess the | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
child's situation and a decision would be taken if any help was | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
needed. Some of these children might be living in domestic abuse | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
situations or with an alcoholic parent. Unless they are at crisis | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
point, there is every chance no action will be taken. Sadly there | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
have been lots of tragic cases since Victoria Climbie a. Sara Morrison, a | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
one-year-old child battered to death by the mother's abusive partner. | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
When all councils are under pressure. People want bins collected | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
and roads fixed, so we have to make tough decisions. Only a tiny number | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
of these children will ever be in any serious risk. Of us will be | :12:55. | :13:03. | |
concerning. 23,000 children across London who someone somewhere has | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
felt worried enough about to raise concerns, but for what ever reason | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
they're not getting the help they need. Thank you. | :13:12. | :13:21. | |
A second man has been arrested as part of the investigation | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
into an incident where a jogger appeared to push a woman | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
The 41-year-old was arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
harm, but has now been eliminated from enquiries. | :13:31. | :13:32. | |
CCTV captured the incident which happened on Putney Bridge | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
A fire engulfed a double decker bus in north London last night. | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
The blaze broke out on a 113 bus on Finchley Road | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
Passers-by reported a bang followed by thick black smoke. | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
Transport for London is investigating what caused it. | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
A high profile school in south London has become the first | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
to successfully challenge an Ofsted inspection report which would have | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
The Durand Academy in Stockwell spent six months fighting | :13:52. | :14:00. | |
Meanwhile, it also announced today that it will be closing the free | :14:01. | :14:08. | |
boarding school in West Sussex that it set up for London students. | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
What is the best thing about this school? | :14:12. | :14:18. | |
When he was Education Secretary, Michael Gove was one | :14:19. | :14:20. | |
He saw the way it was run, as a model for how other | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
Critical of the style of management at the school, | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
But with his backing Durand then set up a free boarding school for young | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
Since he left office that message has changed. | :14:36. | :14:44. | |
A report by the school inspectors Ofsted due to be published | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
earlier this year had labelled Durand as inadequate and said it | :14:48. | :14:49. | |
I have things changed? That's a really good question. Michael Gove | :14:50. | :15:05. | |
left. He was very much in favour of this approach. | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
The school had argued that rules that stop a challenge | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
His Honour Judge Mckenna backed that, saying... | :15:12. | :15:20. | |
He did though raise concerns over whether the Durand had been able | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
to cope with its success, describing it as... | :15:24. | :15:37. | |
I find that very odd that a judge would consider we have grown to | :15:38. | :15:45. | |
quickly and require improvement. Stellar wrong, the judge is wrong, | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
everyone else is wrong. I didn't see the judge was wrong. Ofsted were | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
wrong, they have lost. Durand confirmed today | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
that the boarding school With pupils there being | :15:58. | :15:59. | |
brought back to London. But parents here say | :16:00. | :16:02. | |
the constant issues are a worry. Most parents I have spoken to, and | :16:03. | :16:10. | |
I've spoken to a lot, are very worried. Very, very worried. We are | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
asking me for advice, what should I do? I'm trying to get a parent Forum | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
together to help parents support and guide one another. | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
The government schools funding agency has said it will stop giving | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
Meaning new people will be brought in to run the schools. | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
Durand says it will fight that decision too. | :16:33. | :16:37. | |
Still to come before 7pm: We meet the London theatre producer, | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
bringing a brand new musical from songwriting legend | :16:41. | :16:42. | |
And just as we had all forgotten what summer was like, it made a | :16:43. | :16:55. | |
brief reappearance at the weekend. But it couldn't possibly lasts until | :16:56. | :16:57. | |
the end of the week, could it? Students at a South London art | :16:58. | :17:14. | |
college have been given a one-off opportunity to put their skills | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
into practice - as part of a restoration project | :17:18. | :17:20. | |
at Southwark Cathedral. The ancient carvings on the building | :17:21. | :17:21. | |
date back to the early 19th century and over time have weathered | :17:22. | :17:24. | |
and worn away. Tarah Welsh has been to see | :17:25. | :17:26. | |
the delicate work up close. It is an art form that dates | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
back to ancient Egypt. It is the same techniques, | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
using a chisel with a mallet. This bit, the carving bit, | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
you have to just use your eye. These are the next | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
generation of stone carvers. Students getting a rare opportunity | :17:39. | :17:40. | |
to work on a real historic building, and arguably one of London's best, | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
Southwark Cathedral. It is quite nerve-racking, | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
although it doesn't feel like work. It just inspires you to get your | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
hands into something Alongside her tutors, | :17:51. | :18:04. | |
Sue and other students happen are recreating the stonework that | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
has weathered away over 200 years. It all starts with these | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
rectangular sandstone blocks. And it takes at least a week | :18:12. | :18:13. | |
to create the final product. So the carvers will be | :18:14. | :18:15. | |
here for at least another month. This is all part of a wider ?500,000 | :18:16. | :18:25. | |
restoration of the building. The students are getting paid | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
for every carving the create, The students are getting paid | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
for every carving they create, so there is extra incentive | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
to get it right. You have to be careful not | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
to whack it too hard. And different stones are different, | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
so this is sandstone, And the skills she is learning | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
are rare in the capital. We are on the endangered | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
crafts list. But hopefully we are | :18:52. | :18:53. | |
keeping the skills life. But hopefully we are | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
keeping the skills alive. This building has stood | :18:58. | :18:59. | |
here for 1400 years. But still seems to | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
have great purpose. After the recent terror attack | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
in nearby Borough market, The community really missed | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
this as a holy space, an oasis within a very busy | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
part of London. So making sure that the building | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
is here for future generations is part of our role, | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
part of the job of a dean. And these local students | :19:22. | :19:24. | |
have now left their mark The capital put on quite a show | :19:25. | :19:26. | |
at the London Stadium - with 700,000 fans there over | :19:27. | :19:35. | |
the last ten days. As the World Athletics Championships | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
came to a close last night, Britain added two more medals | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
to their tally. And today Emma Jones has been | :19:41. | :19:41. | |
to meet some of the London athletes Martyn Rooney has found himself | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
here many times before. But he was able to banish memories | :19:46. | :20:01. | |
of just missing out on a medal at the London Olympics | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
and being controversially disqualified in Rio last year, | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
by finishing third at his home World Picking up a world relay medal | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
in London with that kind Can't compare it to any | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
other championships. The noise was outstanding, | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
to cure your name being chanted as you're running round, | :20:22. | :20:23. | |
you cannot ignore it. So very proud of the guys and how | :20:24. | :20:25. | |
we handled the situation. Just glad that we kept | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
the relay medals coming. While this was Rooney's seventh | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
World Championships, They probably didn't know who I was, | :20:33. | :20:50. | |
especially at the beginning, but I put the British vest | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
on and they mention my name It gave me extra incentive to | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
actually run that little bit harder. Lavia Nielsen carried Jessica Ennis' | :21:01. | :21:09. | |
kit at the 2012 Olympics. She was back at the stadium | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
to win silver as part It means Britain won just six medals | :21:15. | :21:16. | |
at the championships, But the 21-year-old believes | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
more success will come. This is the start of what could | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
be an amazing career. I think last night gave me such | :21:25. | :21:26. | |
a taste of what can happen. When you have success, | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
you always want to carry it on. And I think the Great Britain team | :21:31. | :21:44. | |
at this championships has And a lot of fourth, | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
fifth, sixth places. I think in the future, | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
that will turn into medals. And I really hope that | :21:51. | :21:52. | |
I can be a part of that. And as the stadium starts | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
to be converted back into a football ground, | :21:56. | :21:57. | |
we will wait to find out when Now, it's not every day that you get | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
to produce a musical by songwriting legend Burt Bacharach - | :22:01. | :22:21. | |
only the second that But that's the task facing | :22:22. | :22:23. | |
a London theatre producer. The show will also be | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
the first to play at Alice Bhandhukravi has been to meet | :22:27. | :22:28. | |
the rising star behind some of Walk on by a. Walk on by. The | :22:29. | :22:36. | |
unmistakable sound of Burt Bacharach, as Simon by Dion wore | :22:37. | :22:38. | |
black. Despite the skill of his back catalogue, the songwriter rant pop | :22:39. | :22:44. | |
legend had only written one musical, back in 1968. Sobering news of a | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
second emerged, this London producer was eager to bring it to the stage. | :22:51. | :22:59. | |
It is so easy to cure his orchestrations and do an original | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
score of his is a dream. So what exactly does a producer of musicals | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
do? Every single decision from choosing a shawl, a theatre, our | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
budget, the creative team, raising the money, understanding how to sell | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
the show, that is ultimately the producer's responsibility. It is a | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
skill that seems to come naturally to her, according to the co-writer. | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
Sheers this a young person who walks with a sense of her destiny. She has | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
sucked a sense of who she is, what she's about what she wants to do. I | :23:38. | :23:46. | |
think it's kind of remarkable. Recently, Katie Watson has produced | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
the Addams family musical and yank in the West End. But this year's | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
highlight was being invited to Burt Bacharach's home in California. Very | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
humbling. He was just a normal guy. He played as a new song which will | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
be put in. And asked us what we thought. It is absolutely a dream. I | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
try not to get too intimidated. The long-awaited musical will be one of | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
the first show to grace the stage at Andrew Lloyd Webber's new Theatre | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
later this month. No raindrops falling on our heads? ! | :24:27. | :24:45. | |
It was almost like summer. Yesterday, we managed to squeeze 12 | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
hours of sunshine out of the day. Today, we had to 25 degrees at | :24:50. | :25:01. | |
Gravesend, making it easily the year. It will start to feel autumnal | :25:02. | :25:11. | |
later on, dare I say it. Beautiful conditions today. Lots of blue sky | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
over the Barbican. The action was happening in the west of the | :25:17. | :25:19. | |
country, with heavy rain coming from this cloud over parts of the West | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
Country and Wales. It has pushed over a little towards us in the last | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
few hours. Some heavier burst north and west of London over the last | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
couple of hours. Most of tonight will be dry, some clear skies as | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
well, and the winds will be light. Early hours of the morning, this | :25:39. | :25:41. | |

might catch the rain before it moves away from us. Most of us will have | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
bright and sunny weather. In the afternoon, a line of showers starts | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
to go through. Temperatures in the best of the sunshine tomorrow will | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
get up to around 2324 degrees once again. The evening is looking | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
absolutely lovely. Leading us into a clear night, so quite chilly into | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
the morning on Wednesday. We will see some sunshine at first, turning | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
more hazy as the day goes on. Temperatures are tiny bit down on | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
popular fad this week. It will be a case of some showers around on | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
Thursday and will be cooling off and becoming quite unseasonably breezy | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
as we go through Friday as well. Summer is here for now at least! | :26:41. | :26:42. | |
