:00:00. > :00:11.Here on BBC One it's time for the news where you are.
:00:12. > :00:21.She famously said "Brexit means Brexit" and today Theresa May
:00:22. > :00:24.explained how she intends to make that happen.
:00:25. > :00:27.So what could the Prime Minister's announcement mean for the capital?
:00:28. > :00:36.You have been looking into this in terms of London. Yes, because in
:00:37. > :00:40.terms of Brexit London is quite a tricky area for the Prime Minister
:00:41. > :00:45.as we know, most Londoners overall were in favour of staying in the EU.
:00:46. > :00:48.For now her job is really to convince those 60% of Londoners that
:00:49. > :00:52.are unhappy about leaving that this isn't going to cause them any harm,
:00:53. > :00:57.especially when it comes to three main areas. Three questions. First
:00:58. > :01:02.the single market which concerns free movement of labour, goods,
:01:03. > :01:05.services and capital so leaving the single market, of course it raises
:01:06. > :01:11.big questions, what will the cost of that be to London? Then the question
:01:12. > :01:14.of immigration, controls on EU nationals working here, close to a
:01:15. > :01:18.million of them work here at the moment. This will have huge
:01:19. > :01:22.implications for them and of course the economy here in London. Then
:01:23. > :01:26.also transition, how long will this process be? The Prime Minister said
:01:27. > :01:29.today that it would be a phased implementation rather than a
:01:30. > :01:32.cliff-edge decision and that's really to give businesses the chance
:01:33. > :01:35.to adjust to these changes and make sure they aren't hit hard. What
:01:36. > :01:40.about political reaction here? The capital? Of course lots of different
:01:41. > :01:43.views on this today. We spoke to two London MPs who had very different
:01:44. > :01:47.opinions on the Prime Minister's plans.
:01:48. > :01:50.I believe that we'll still be doing billions of pounds worth
:01:51. > :01:55.We still have great services, great goods to be able to sell to Europe.
:01:56. > :01:58.That will still happen even after leaving the EU's internal market.
:01:59. > :02:01.We have no guarantees at all about what the future
:02:02. > :02:04.of the City of London looks like, what the future is for financial
:02:05. > :02:07.services in the City of London and I think that's
:02:08. > :02:11.We hear rumours of banks wanting to relocate to other financial
:02:12. > :02:14.centres in Europe and I don't think the Prime Minister said anything
:02:15. > :02:25.at all today that will reassure the City of London in any way.
:02:26. > :02:31.Two very different opinions. But what bt people who live and work in
:02:32. > :02:32.London? Today our political editor went out to gauge the mood in east
:02:33. > :02:36.London. Should we come out
:02:37. > :02:38.of the single market? Word had reached many
:02:39. > :02:41.about the PM's speech. But we prompted them anyway: What do
:02:42. > :02:44.you think about coming out It's about people growing up
:02:45. > :02:50.and getting on with it and we'll What do you think about coming out
:02:51. > :02:58.of the single market? Coming out is going to be
:02:59. > :03:07.detrimental in terms of pension, cost of living
:03:08. > :03:12.and it's uncomfortable. You have changed
:03:13. > :03:14.your mind, have you? I changed my mind.
:03:15. > :03:17.If we voted again I would stay. The Prime Minister says
:03:18. > :03:21.the economy's getting better or hasn't been as bad
:03:22. > :03:25.as people said. We are not out completely
:03:26. > :03:28.yet, we just started. Down the road in Canary Wharf
:03:29. > :03:35.here was one gloomy outlook. London makes and sells financial
:03:36. > :03:38.products to the world at least 20% If we can't sell those products
:03:39. > :03:44.to those people we take an economic hit and potentially that's quite
:03:45. > :03:47.a big hit. Here was another view
:03:48. > :03:50.in the City today. We now know what the negotiation
:03:51. > :03:52.stance of the Government is going to be, that gives
:03:53. > :03:55.the opportunity for people to have much more certainty over the next
:03:56. > :03:58.couple of years and they can actually start to
:03:59. > :04:00.plan for the future. Back at the market
:04:01. > :04:11.that other issue... The average person like myself,
:04:12. > :04:14.the ordinary man in the street wants Brexit must mean control
:04:15. > :04:19.of the number of people who come I think to the ordinary,
:04:20. > :04:27.average person in the street that is the most important
:04:28. > :04:31.thing to us. If people are coming and we haven't
:04:32. > :04:34.got the jobs for them We have to have some kind
:04:35. > :04:38.of control in no matter what. Aren't they coming because
:04:39. > :04:40.there are jobs here? Never mind Roman, it's what the EU's
:04:41. > :04:47.done for us, or not done for us, There are calls for the Mayor
:04:48. > :04:59.to take urgent action - after fresh concerns over the safety
:05:00. > :05:02.of the Notting Hill Carnival. A new report claims the event
:05:03. > :05:04.is becoming increasingly violent But others say Europe's largest
:05:05. > :05:08.street festival is still much safer After 50 years, a new report says
:05:09. > :05:25.it is at tipping point. Carnival might seem a long way away
:05:26. > :05:30.on a cold January day, but it is already in the forefront
:05:31. > :05:34.of some people's minds. A report out today says
:05:35. > :05:39.they are worried about overcrowding, a rise in violent incidents,
:05:40. > :05:42.and they say the trust that runs it One person who has experienced
:05:43. > :05:51.the violence first-hand is Joe. He was stabbed in
:05:52. > :05:55.the arm last Carnival. Initially I thought,
:05:56. > :06:02.why did I get punched in the arm? As I looked at my arm,
:06:03. > :06:06.there was blood spurting I just held on to the wound
:06:07. > :06:11.and started to run. It could have happened to anybody,
:06:12. > :06:21.so it can definitely be safer. I would like it to be
:06:22. > :06:24.safer so no-one else Crowd surges like this last year
:06:25. > :06:29.made those who policed The Met say each year
:06:30. > :06:32.they come close to major Overcrowding, yes it is dreadful
:06:33. > :06:39.around Ladbroke Tube Station and further up All
:06:40. > :06:42.Saints Road and so on. If there was an incident,
:06:43. > :06:45.goodness knows how any help would be Violent crime is not
:06:46. > :06:52.particular to Carnival, and there is some suggestion that
:06:53. > :06:55.out of one million visitors, the 151 violent incidents means it
:06:56. > :06:57.affects relatively few. We want it going on
:06:58. > :07:03.for another 50 years. Another point out of the report
:07:04. > :07:06.is that the festival is run by some great people,
:07:07. > :07:08.some volunteers, but by their own admission,
:07:09. > :07:12.the trust needs more support. Although it is easy to say it needs
:07:13. > :07:16.to be safer, how do you do it? His team say they have
:07:17. > :07:19.already commissioned It is still good and I enjoy it,
:07:20. > :07:24.the music is great. But, I mean, there is
:07:25. > :07:26.also a downside to it. This report builds pressure to make
:07:27. > :07:28.this year's Carnival In an exclusive interview
:07:29. > :07:41.with the BBC, a childhood friend of George Michael says he believes
:07:42. > :07:43.a cocktail of hard drugs and anti-depressants may
:07:44. > :07:46.have been responsible Andros Georgiou was in the process
:07:47. > :07:51.of reconciling with him after a falling-out -
:07:52. > :07:54.and says he was one of the nicest It's been more than three weeks
:07:55. > :08:00.since George Michael passed away, leaving his friends,
:08:01. > :08:02.family and fans bereft. Now a close friend, Andros Georgiou,
:08:03. > :08:12.has spoken for the first time. The George I know was a very private
:08:13. > :08:16.person, an incredibly generous person and one of the nicest people
:08:17. > :08:25.you could ever meet. George Michael was found dead
:08:26. > :08:29.at his home on Christmas Day. On 29th December a postmortem
:08:30. > :08:35.examination proved inconclusive and so further tests
:08:36. > :08:38.are being carried out. But Andros Georgiou believes
:08:39. > :08:46.drugs played a part I just think that he took
:08:47. > :08:56.too much of something, mixed with the anti-depressants
:08:57. > :09:02.and other drugs he I think his heart
:09:03. > :09:10.just stopped beating. The ex-music producer says this is
:09:11. > :09:15.despite the singer being in rehab. He was actually in that Swiss clinic
:09:16. > :09:28.for three years before he came out and then -
:09:29. > :09:31.but he had stopped all And he was trying to lead a normal
:09:32. > :09:36.life again and I just believe This interview raises more
:09:37. > :09:39.questions than answers and here at George Michael's home
:09:40. > :09:41.in Highgate fans have continued But more than three
:09:42. > :10:02.weeks after his death, I will say good night now and leave
:10:03. > :10:07.you with Wendy with the weather. Thank you. It really was a beautiful
:10:08. > :10:12.day with blue skies overhead that slowly went pink and yellow and
:10:13. > :10:17.orange as the sun set. Tonight we go in with clear skies, so it's going
:10:18. > :10:22.to be feeling cold and frosty. In fact, that frost is starting to form
:10:23. > :10:27.already. Hence, the blue tinge to the map. We
:10:28. > :10:33.have light winds so the cold air gets really cold and we could see
:10:34. > :10:37.lows of minus four in Gatwick, maybe even lower. You can see this cloud
:10:38. > :10:41.around, first thing tomorrow it's frosty. That cloud is going to come
:10:42. > :10:46.and go through the next few days. It might mean we don't get the benefit
:10:47. > :10:50.of the sunshine. The further away from London tomorrow it will make it
:10:51. > :10:53.feel even colder. The further south-east the more chance you have
:10:54. > :10:57.of seeing some sunshine. Still a chilly day. You can see towards the
:10:58. > :11:01.end of the week we are going to have plenty of cloud around and into the
:11:02. > :11:03.weekend. I think it will break up from time to time. Staying settled
:11:04. > :11:05.still. from time to time. Staying settled
:11:06. > :11:11.still. Nick has the national forecast this evening.
:11:12. > :11:14.Hello. If you are watching the football earlier it turned out to be
:11:15. > :11:20.an evening for football fans in Lincolnshire. This is how it looked
:11:21. > :11:24.at the start of the day. No idea whether this weather watcher is a
:11:25. > :11:26.football fan, it's a fan of weather that matters here. All sorts of
