Here on BBC One it's time
for the news where you are. | 0:00:00 | 0:00:00 | |
Good evening, I'm Asad Ahmad. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
The family of a man stabbed to death
at Wormwood Scrubs prison yesterday | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
whilst on remand have told BBC
London that Khader Saleh was in fear | 0:00:16 | 0:00:20 | |
of his life in the prison -
just days before he was killed. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:24 | |
And today, visiting friends
and relatives of other inmates | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
spoke of their shock
at realising their loved | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
ones may not be safe. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:32 | |
Here's Charlotte Franks. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:36 | |
Wormwood Scrubs prison has had
a poor history of violence | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
over the last few years. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
Yesterday, 25-year-old Khader Saleh
was stabbed to death | 0:00:40 | 0:00:44 | |
whilst on remand there. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
His mother received
the news yesterday evening. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:50 | |
She is really in a very bad
feeling for her loss. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:58 | |
And our loss as well. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
She felt he would be in a safe
place, which is prison. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
Khader Saleh had recently got
married and had a one-year-old son. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
He'd been at Wormwood Scrubs prison
for nine months awaiting his trial. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
Last night, his family were told
he was moved to a cell | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
and stabbed seven times. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
We spoke to him four days ago,
before he got killed. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:21 | |
He was feeling very bad
and he was afraid for his life. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
Today, families visiting their loved
ones at Wormwood Scrubs | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
were concerned by the news. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
I'm terrified what's
going to happen next. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
For everybody visiting today,
they are all shocked. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:39 | |
It's threatening, I feel
sorry for the family, | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
because your loved one has been
taken away but you don't expect them | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
to be killed inside prison. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
In 2017 a report into the prison
by the independent monitoring board | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
found it was dangerous for both
inmates and officers. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
It identified 40 to 50 violent
incidents per month, | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
with 25% gang-related,
and it highlighted how prisoners | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
were only allowed to be released
from their cells for one hour a day. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:07 | |
The fatal stabbing here
yesterday follows the recent | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
decision to introduce CCTV,
body worn cameras and extra dog | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
patrols because the level
of violence here has been so high. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:20 | |
The MOJ say since the last
inspection, Wormwood Scrubs has | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
taken decisive action
to reduce violence. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
Despite this, Khader Saleh's family
say they fear there could be more | 0:02:26 | 0:02:30 | |
victims in future if security
in the prison isn't increased. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:34 | |
Four inmates in their 20s
have been arrested. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:42 | |
More now on the reaction
to today's guilty verdict | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
in the Finsbury Park terror attack
against Muslim worshippers. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
Darren Osborne was found guilty
of murdering Makram Ali | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
after he intentionally
ploughed his van into | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
Muslim Londoners with the intention
of killing as many of | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
them as possible. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
He became obsessed with Muslims
after watching a BBC drama. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:02 | |
Our home affairs correspondent
Nick Beake has been looking | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
at the impact the attack has had. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:09 | |
Six months ago, a man who hated
Muslims attacked this | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
community in Finsbury Park,
murdering one of their own. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:17 | |
Now, they are welcoming a man
who helped set up neo-Nazi groups. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:25 | |
Nigel Bromwich is now a changed man
and fights against extremism | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
in nine London boroughs. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
He also helps mosques to understand
the threat from the far right - | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
a threat he says is rising. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
The increased use of the Internet
and social media, the fact that | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
people are more open
about their racist views, | 0:03:40 | 0:03:44 | |
and I think because it's more
mainstream and people are open | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
about it, it's encouraging more
people to get involved. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
Does that worry you? | 0:03:50 | 0:03:51 | |
It always worries me. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
All extremism is wrong and if far
right extremism is growing we've got | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
to try and build buffers
and stop that. | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
An angry imam stops the crowd
from assaulting the killer, | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
the man not repentant. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:11 | |
-- during the attack, a local imam
stops the crowd from assaulting the | 0:04:11 | 0:04:17 | |
killer, a man not repentant. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:21 | |
The imam, Mohammed Mahmoud,
told us why he intervened. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
It was a normal human response to... | 0:04:23 | 0:04:24 | |
To defend somebody who's
defenceless, even though he didn't | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
extent that same courtesy
to the people whom just moments | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
earlier he rammed into with his van,
killing one of them, | 0:04:32 | 0:04:36 | |
and inflicting life-changing
injuries on others. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:42 | |
He says he didn't want worshippers
to hand out their own justice. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
To then reciprocate his rage
and anger and hatred | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
with an equal response,
rather to show him the humanity that | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
can be demonstrated,
even in these extreme circumstances. | 0:04:52 | 0:05:02 | |
The attack here in Finsbury Park
last summer clearly had a profound | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
impact on many Muslim worshippers,
as well as the wider community, | 0:05:05 | 0:05:11 | |
but it's also had an effect
on many mosques and Islamic | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
centres across London. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:17 | |
This week, more than 100 Muslim
leaders gathered together. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:22 | |
One conversation was how best
to combat the resurgence | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
of the far right. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
From a situation where we were
getting two or three calls a month, | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
it's two or three calls a week,
of how to protect | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
those institutions. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
Finsbury Park has definitely woken
up the leadership of mosques, | 0:05:36 | 0:05:43 | |
and they are preparing
their congregation, unfortunately | 0:05:43 | 0:05:44 | |
if there is an attack,
how to deal with it. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:47 | |
The attack came at the height
of a rise in Islamophobic | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
incidents last year,
a trend that has now fallen, | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
but it seems many in London's Muslim
communities feel that they must | 0:05:52 | 0:05:56 | |
remain alert, while
not being alarmed. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:04 | |
West Ham United has suspended
its Director of Player Recruitment - | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
after he reportedly said
that the Premier League football | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
club "wouldn't sign any
more African players". | 0:06:11 | 0:06:15 | |
A newspaper claimed that Tony Henry
said African players have a "bad | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
attitude" and "cause mayhem"
when left out of the team. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
The club is investigating. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
Latest figures show the number
of foreign nationals moving | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
to London has fallen -
with the biggest drop | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
recorded from the EU. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
And it's causing concern
among some employers, | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
as our Brexit reporter
Katherine Carpenter explains. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:40 | |
We like to think of ours as a global
city, but official figures show | 0:06:40 | 0:06:45 | |
there's been a drop in the number
of foreign nationals coming | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
to London, particularly young people
and those from the EU. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:51 | |
Hello... | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
Not that you'd know it at this
recruitment company in Blackfriars. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
I'm 20 and I'm from Belgium. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
I'm Josephine and I'm from Germany. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:02 | |
I'm half French,
half Northern Irish. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
As well as having strong
personal ties to Europe, | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
their professional success relies
on encouraging skilled workers | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
from the EU to come to London,
so has that got harder? | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
A common interview question
is where do you see yourself | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
in five years' time? | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
When people don't know
whether they will be able | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
to continue in the role
in their location, it gets | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
a difficult question. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:25 | |
I had a couple of candidates
who have left saying they are not | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
staying here after Brexit,
but also candidates who said, OK, | 0:07:28 | 0:07:32 | |
I'm coming now before Brexit
which worked out well in my favour. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:39 | |
National insurance number
registrations were down over 20% | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
in the third quarter of 2017
compared to the same period in 2016, | 0:07:43 | 0:07:48 | |
and the sharpest fall
was in the number of EU nationals | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
coming here, a drop of 25%,
particularly younger Europeans. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:56 | |
The number 18 to 34-year-olds coming
to the capital was down 16.1%. | 0:07:56 | 0:08:03 | |
It's a long-term trend since 2014
when there was a peak, | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
and it's accelerated
since the referendum and it suggests | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
we don't know how many people
from the EU are leaving London | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
but it suggests people are having
second thoughts before moving over. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
He acknowledges that Brexit
will not be the only reason. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
European citizens whose countries'
economies are performing well may | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
feel less urge to leave. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
Some people will welcome
the drop in migration as one | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
of the factors they voted to leave
the European Union. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
We're not seeing big
changes in unemployment | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
or job numbers in London. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
Ten more immigrants coming over
doesn't mean ten more jobs | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
are unavailable for local people,
because immigrants create work | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
as well as taking jobs. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
Sectors like construction,
which rely heavily on EU migrants, | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
may find little comfort
in the capital's current resilience. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:54 | |
Louisa Preston has more on this. | 0:08:54 | 0:09:00 | |
It seems EU citizens and London are
really quite concerned about this. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:04 | |
Yeah, they really are. We know there
are about 1 million EU citizens | 0:09:04 | 0:09:08 | |
living here in the capital. Some
have been here for decades and with | 0:09:08 | 0:09:13 | |
the Brexit negotiations moving onto
the next phase they are very | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
concerned that their worries about
their security on their future will | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
just be forgotten about. So much so
that today, they went to the | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
European Parliament to speak to a
human rights committee, to make sure | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
that they aren't forgotten about.
This is extremely timely, because | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
just last night Theresa May said
those who have come to the UK after | 0:09:30 | 0:09:36 | |
March, 2019, during the transition
period, shouldn't have full | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
residency rights. So this is exactly
what EU citizens have been worried | 0:09:39 | 0:09:43 | |
about at this stage, that they are
going to be used as bargaining chips | 0:09:43 | 0:09:47 | |
and they say that cannot happen. I'm
sure there will be more twists and | 0:09:47 | 0:09:52 | |
turns yet, Louisa Preston, thank
you. Time now for the weather | 0:09:52 | 0:09:57 | |
forecast. Today started off
beautifully sunny but this evening I | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
was soaked, standing in the rain. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:01 | |
beautifully sunny but this evening I
was soaked, standing in the rain. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
When he's finished his Thai raid, a
very good evening, you obviously | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
didn't pay attention to the
forecast. -- when he's finished his | 0:10:08 | 0:10:13 | |
ranting. As you may have mentioned,
it didn't stay like this because | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
there was that belt of rain. He
wasn't alone, many got caught up in | 0:10:17 | 0:10:21 | |
that. That is gradually pulling away
and thankfully the skies are | 0:10:21 | 0:10:26 | |
beginning to clear for your journey
home and it looks as though it will | 0:10:26 | 0:10:30 | |
be a dry night. Still that
noticeable breeze coming in from the | 0:10:30 | 0:10:34 | |
north-west, which has been quite a
feature of the day. You may well be | 0:10:34 | 0:10:39 | |
scraping your car first,
particularly to the west of London I | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
would have thought. Out east from
the word go there is that chance of | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
seeing some showers coming down. Bit
of winteriness, not a big issue for | 0:10:45 | 0:10:51 | |
many of us. The temperature is
pretty close to where we have been | 0:10:51 | 0:10:55 | |
today, around 7-8. The weekend will
be cloudy and cold and I think there | 0:10:55 | 0:11:01 | |
will | 0:11:01 | 0:11:01 |
