:00:40. > :00:43.flights. But, as the planes began taking off from City Airport again

:00:44. > :00:49.this evening, many passengers were still left stranded. We arrhved at

:01:02. > :01:06.from the Netherlands. They said you can go now and go in the qudue but I

:01:07. > :01:15.don't know if my plane is ldaving. The disruption started just after

:01:16. > :01:18.4pm when a fire alarm was sdt off. London Fire Brigade said it had been

:01:19. > :01:22.called to reports of a chemhcal incident. It felt like we w`lked

:01:23. > :01:27.straight into something. It was chemical. At first I thought

:01:28. > :01:31.someone's sprayed deodorant but it got worse and you could really feel

:01:32. > :01:37.it in your throat right down the back. Everyone started coughing A

:01:38. > :01:41.hazardous response unit with specialist medics arrived at the

:01:42. > :01:43.airport. 26 people were tre`ted for breathing difficulties with two

:01:44. > :01:50.taken to hospital. A BBC reporter was caught up in the incident.

:01:51. > :01:54.People don't know when their flights will be leaving. About 7. 30, the

:01:55. > :01:57.airport re-opened and there are people in the airport desperate to

:01:58. > :02:01.find out whether they will be able to get to where they want to go to

:02:02. > :02:06.tonight. Police and firefighters scoured the building followhng the

:02:07. > :02:10.alert. What's believed to bd a CS gas spray, better known as tear gas

:02:11. > :02:15.was found. Officers are now investigating whether the spray had

:02:16. > :02:19.been accidentally discharged. With at least 30 flights cancelldd today,

:02:20. > :02:21.further disruption is expected and many will have to wait until

:02:22. > :02:25.tomorrow to complete their journey. A man has been charged

:02:26. > :02:28.with murder following the ddath Jamal Mahmoud was killed and two

:02:29. > :02:32.others were critically injured in a stabbing

:02:33. > :02:35.at the jail on Tuesday. Basana Kimbembi has been ch`rged

:02:36. > :02:38.with murder and will appear from prison at court

:02:39. > :02:41.at a later date. A BBC London undercover

:02:42. > :02:44.investigation has exposed a major job scam which has potentially

:02:45. > :02:46.robbed hundreds of vulnerable A fraudster who goes by the name

:02:47. > :02:51.of John Phillips, offers applicants fake jobs for cash

:02:52. > :02:53.before disappearing. Victims are left

:02:54. > :02:55.in debt and jobless. All of these people have

:02:56. > :03:03.one thing in common - they've all been scammed with a fake

:03:04. > :03:08.job by one man. I got scammed really, reallx badly,

:03:09. > :03:12.when I lost ?480 pounds. And this is the man who scalmed

:03:13. > :03:22.them, John Phillips. We investigate after hearing

:03:23. > :03:26.numerous reports and post a CV on job websites that we know

:03:27. > :03:31.Phillips apparently targets. Soon we are contacted by a third,

:03:32. > :03:40.Premiere Employment A firm, Premier Employment, and get

:03:41. > :03:49.offer add job. But before we start he says we need

:03:50. > :03:53.to come to a city office When we arrive, no sign of John

:03:54. > :04:00.but this lady gets us ...And sells the perks

:04:01. > :04:12.of working there. And then like all these people we're

:04:13. > :04:15.asked for a fee to When we come out of the intdrview,

:04:16. > :04:25.we spot John Phillips Lo and behold, the lady we've met

:04:26. > :04:33.hands him the money. Later we discover she was bding

:04:34. > :04:37.conned with a fake job In my eyes it is exploitation

:04:38. > :04:44.of vulnerable jobseeker's. Nobody should be paying to start

:04:45. > :04:48.a new job with a genuine employer. And we discover John Phillips is far

:04:49. > :04:52.from a genuine employer. He set up more than ten bogts

:04:53. > :04:57.companies, some with fake dhrectors and since 2012, potentially

:04:58. > :05:01.hundreds of people have been I would say it is not exactly

:05:02. > :05:11.depression but a state where I was completely stretched

:05:12. > :05:13.financially, and how to copd Young people like me are just coming

:05:14. > :05:19.to this country and going to them. You are just stealing

:05:20. > :05:21.from the poorest. The way Phillips works

:05:22. > :05:24.is after taking a fee, he gets those who think ethdy're

:05:25. > :05:27.starting a new job for him, As he says goodbye, we seizd

:05:28. > :05:41.the moment to ask him a few I wondered if you could tell me

:05:42. > :05:47.all about the high levels of fraud you have been committing

:05:48. > :05:49.against many people by lying I don't know what you

:05:50. > :05:53.are talking about. You don't know what we're t`lking

:05:54. > :05:54.about? Well, we've been recording xou over

:05:55. > :05:57.the last few months, offering people jobs

:05:58. > :05:58.with fictitious companies. I don't know what

:05:59. > :06:00.you're talking about. And do you know how many

:06:01. > :06:02.people I've spoken to, affected by your fraud who have lost

:06:03. > :06:05.thousands and thousands of pounds? I don't know what you're talking

:06:06. > :06:10.about. I have never seen a more pernicious

:06:11. > :06:13.kind of fraud as that And Phillips has gone under

:06:14. > :06:19.ground, leaving a trail Goodnight, over to Peter Gibbs

:06:20. > :06:39.with the weather. A decent weekend it is for weather.

:06:40. > :06:42.We are dry for most of the time with a bit of sunshine coming

:06:43. > :06:46.through. It will help show off the autumn colours which are coling

:06:47. > :06:51.along nicely now. This evenhng, a chill in the air. Areas of cloud

:06:52. > :06:55.drifting through on the easterly breeze to stop temperatures falling

:06:56. > :07:00.away too low. Could turn misty over the hills. Temperatures getting down

:07:01. > :07:04.into single figures certainly, rural areas maybe down to four or five.

:07:05. > :07:08.Any early cloud clearing quhckly and then a lot of sunshine to come

:07:09. > :07:17.tomorrow. One or two showers drifting in from the north-dast

:07:18. > :07:22.Temperatures in the sunshind similar to recent days, so something around

:07:23. > :07:28.13, 14, possibly 15, not fedling too bad in the sunshine. As we look

:07:29. > :07:32.ahead to Sunday, not a bad day, sunshine to be enjoyed. Louhse
