:00:14. > :00:19.First tonight, a stinging criticism from the Mayor who's called
:00:20. > :00:21.the Prime Minister "the most anti-London party leader"
:00:22. > :00:29.But Theresa May ignored the criticism as she met
:00:30. > :00:31.Conservative candidates in north-west London.
:00:32. > :00:34.However, the issue of immigration - and its role in the city's economy -
:00:35. > :00:36.has emerged as one deep difference between them.
:00:37. > :00:40.Our Political Editor, Tim Donovan, reports.
:00:41. > :00:45.In her approach to business and to the capital's rail services,
:00:46. > :00:48.from our funding for schools to her policy on air quality,
:00:49. > :00:52.today the Prime Minister was under fire from the Mayor.
:00:53. > :00:54.I think Theresa May has shown by her actions since she became
:00:55. > :00:56.Prime Minister she is an anti-London Prime Minister.
:00:57. > :01:00.She's taking money away from our schools, our policing,
:01:01. > :01:02.not helping businesses in London with the business rates hike.
:01:03. > :01:05.I've never seen such an anti-London leader of a mainstream
:01:06. > :01:13.But a war of words there was not - because appearing this morning
:01:14. > :01:16.with her candidates lined up for London's seats, she ignored both
:01:17. > :01:22.In their choice is, do they want to get the best possible
:01:23. > :01:25.deal out of the Brexit negotiations, the best deal for Britain,
:01:26. > :01:30.To do that, we need a strong hand in those negotiations,
:01:31. > :01:33.and that is a strong hand from me and from my team, and that can be
:01:34. > :01:37.gained by supporting my local candidates here in London.
:01:38. > :01:41.The alternative is a coalition of chaos, led by Jeremy Corbyn.
:01:42. > :01:51.Limiting that to 100,000 a year across the UK would mean,
:01:52. > :01:53.on current proportions, a limit of approximately

:02:00. > :02:02.This company recruiting EU nurses to hospitals here says they have
:02:03. > :02:07.become integral to the NHS, but for how much longer?
:02:08. > :02:11.We are highly dependent on EU nurses, and we have seen the number
:02:12. > :02:15.of them entering the system decreasing by 92%, and the number
:02:16. > :02:18.of nurses leaving the NHS at the moment has increased by 68%
:02:19. > :02:21.And that's happening already, we haven't even had Brexit?
:02:22. > :02:25.Along with the Mayor, business groups have argued
:02:26. > :02:27.for special London visas or permits after Brexit.
:02:28. > :02:33.We have recognised the need to ensure that where there
:02:34. > :02:36.are skills shortages, those can be met, that the brightest
:02:37. > :02:39.and best are welcomed here in the UK, and we will continue
:02:40. > :02:46.What will be different once we leave the EU is we will also be able
:02:47. > :02:49.to set our own rules for people coming from inside the EU
:02:50. > :02:52.into the UK, but we will continue to recognise the need to ensure
:02:53. > :02:56.the brightest and the best are welcome and able to come to the UK.
:02:57. > :02:58.You're not going to give special arrangements to London, then?
:02:59. > :03:01.We will ensure that we have the rules on immigration that
:03:02. > :03:03.will provide for the economy, and that is the economy in London
:03:04. > :03:10.We want to be able to continue to attract talent,
:03:11. > :03:13.that is one of the reasons why we are the greatest
:03:14. > :03:16.When I speak to chief executives across London,
:03:17. > :03:18.when I speak to innovators, when I speak to investors,
:03:19. > :03:20.when I speak to those in construction, when I speak
:03:21. > :03:23.to those in the NHS, when I speak to those in teaching,
:03:24. > :03:26.all of them are telling me the importance of attracting
:03:27. > :03:30.The Mayor may think he speaks for the capital, but she has
:03:31. > :03:33.a mandate for Brexit across the UK and could have a further mandate

:03:58. > :04:01.It is from a body camera worn by a bailiff who had come to collect
:04:02. > :04:08.It started because of two fines of ?65 each.
:04:09. > :04:11.After the bailiff clamped Jerome's bike, he then sat in his car
:04:12. > :04:16.While he was there, that's when Jerome left the house and went
:04:17. > :04:21.Jerome had already paid ?800 but was told on this day
:04:22. > :04:28.The bike he needed to work as a courier was clamped and a request
:04:29. > :04:32.I said to you about setting up a payment scheme

:04:48. > :04:54.He was found dead by his brother the next day.
:04:55. > :04:57.The only time it actually does feel real to me is when I go
:04:58. > :05:00.up to my son's grave and I see his name there.
:05:01. > :05:11.At an inquest into Jerome's death, a coroner expressed concerns
:05:12. > :05:15.about some of the practices of Newlands debt collection agency,
:05:16. > :05:17.although she said the bailiff himself had been reasonable.
:05:18. > :05:19.But several charities are calling on tougher

:05:32. > :05:33.Newlands did not respond to our request for a comment,
:05:34. > :05:35.but the Civil Enforcement Association say that it is important

:05:40. > :05:42.Figures out today from charity Christians Against Poverty say that
:05:43. > :05:46.of the 1200 clients they saw last year, three quarters

:05:52. > :05:54.38% have thought about suicide while just over one in ten
:05:55. > :05:58.had actually attempted to take their own life.
:05:59. > :06:02.That is twice as many as the year before.
:06:03. > :06:05.Jerome's friends raised thousands for his funeral and everyone that
:06:06. > :06:07.loved him wishes he had asked them for help.
:06:08. > :06:13.And if you or anyone you know needs advice on debt,

:06:33. > :06:38.City of London Corporation has dismissed concerns that Emmanuel
:06:39. > :06:39.Macron, a former banker, will tempt significant business away from our
:06:40. > :06:40.capital to Paris. When they met in Paris recently,
:06:41. > :06:47.London's mayor was left in no doubt that Emmanuel Macron hoped
:06:48. > :06:52.to capitalise on Brexit nerves. His ambition - to make the French
:06:53. > :06:54.capital the financial Mr Khan is the mayor of roughly
:06:55. > :07:02.speaking 200,000 French people. Some of them will decide to come
:07:03. > :07:10.back, I will be very happy to host them again,
:07:11. > :07:13.but obviously we will work together with the UK and with London
:07:14. > :07:17.because they live there. On the campaign trail he pledged
:07:18. > :07:26.to overhaul France's labour market, to simplify the tax system,
:07:27. > :07:29.and ease back on regulation, to make There have been French financiers
:07:30. > :07:40.in London since the 17th century and there are still thousands
:07:41. > :07:42.of them living and So here in the heart
:07:43. > :07:49.of the City at the Guildhall, are they worried that the charms
:07:50. > :07:51.of Paris might lure them home and entice others
:07:52. > :07:54.across the Channel? London is the big global financial
:07:55. > :07:57.centre for the whole It's Europe's gateway to the world
:07:58. > :08:01.economy and that won't change as a result of Brexit and it
:08:02. > :08:06.won't change as a result of Macron. A month ago the European Union
:08:07. > :08:10.looked to be in a parlous state. With this emphatic win
:08:11. > :08:12.by President Macron, and the alignment with Germany,
:08:13. > :08:15.it makes the European Union look pretty strong now
:08:16. > :08:18.and they are probably in their best negotiating position they have been
:08:19. > :08:21.for a very long time but the idea that London will lose its prowess
:08:22. > :08:24.as a leading world financial The election result has led
:08:25. > :08:33.to fighting talk from the man behind the project to try to steal away
:08:34. > :08:36.London's financial workers to Paris. In fact this morning he has given
:08:37. > :08:39.interviews saying as many as 20,000 people could now relocate and he's
:08:40. > :08:42.leading a delegation to the US later this month
:08:43. > :08:45.to try to encourage banks But is the uneasiness
:08:46. > :08:53.here in the city justified? I think there's always a bit
:08:54. > :08:56.of a panic when things are new, It probably will happen but it's
:08:57. > :09:07.going to be the junior people that go and that's what people
:09:08. > :09:09.need to realise. Not necessarily the senior people
:09:10. > :09:12.who will want to stay in London. So yes, it might happen,
:09:13. > :09:14.there are probably quite a few million people in this country
:09:15. > :09:17.who might be happy For now then, London
:09:18. > :09:21.is talking a confident game, but these commuters could be

:09:24. > :09:30.BBC London News. I'll say goodnight now and let's see
:09:31. > :09:32.how the weather's shaping May feels like it's
:09:33. > :09:43.struggling a bit? It feels more like March! There is a
:09:44. > :09:47.chained under way in the middle part of the week and we will get some
:09:48. > :09:52.sunshine. It will start feeling warm as well but it will come at a cost
:09:53. > :09:55.and we will lose the settled weather but has an heavy showers but we
:09:56. > :10:00.could do with the rain. High pressure has been in charge for ages
:10:01. > :10:05.and it is now in a pincer movement by two low-pressure systems and it
:10:06. > :10:09.is this on to the south that moves up on Friday and will introduce some
:10:10. > :10:13.heavy rain now and then. We will keep on it, but no such problems
:10:14. > :10:18.tonight because once again it will be dry, Saint-Cloud around but
:10:19. > :10:23.enough clear sky for temperatures to fall back, already into single
:10:24. > :10:28.figures -- some cloud around. The south of London in particular with a
:10:29. > :10:33.touch of frost, but nothing severe. A chilly start tomorrow, the wind
:10:34. > :10:35.from the north-east, still a fair amount of cloud around but some
:10:36. > :10:41.bright and sunny spells and it might be feeling a touch warmer tomorrow
:10:42. > :10:45.with temperatures reaching 16 in central London. A sunny day on
:10:46. > :10:49.Wednesday and temperatures should be at the average for May of 17 degrees
:10:50. > :10:53.and then left settled as the week goes on and we could get a shower on
:10:54. > :10:59.Thursday, it will be warming up and feel quite humid, and heavy showers
:11:00. > :11:03.on Friday. At the weekend, we start with some sunshine and showers, it
:11:04. > :11:08.will become drier and feel warm. Now the National forecast.
:11:09. > :11:17.Good evening. A quiet day on the weather front but we still managed
:11:18. > :11:19.to have some huge contrasts in the weather. This was a beautiful
:11:20. > :11:20.picture
