:00:00. > :00:21.The Mayor, Sadiq Khan, is calling on internet providers

:00:22. > :00:25.like YouTube to remove videos that encourage knife crime.

:00:26. > :00:29.He says the move could save lives and wants the internet giant

:00:30. > :00:32.to crack down on those who post material that glamorises

:00:33. > :00:34.Our political correspondent Karl Mercer has been

:00:35. > :00:39.Can I say I'm really angry with YouTube and Google for the stance

:00:40. > :00:43.All of us have a role to play when it comes to

:00:44. > :00:47.tackling knife crime and tackling gun crime, particularly in the

:00:48. > :00:49.context where it is going that the police

:00:50. > :00:54.There is a specialist team of 80 officers tackling the issue of knife

:00:55. > :00:59.crime and increased use of intelligence-led stop and search.

:01:00. > :01:01.We have invested record amounts in prevention strategies, diverting

:01:02. > :01:04.people away from gangs and knife crime.

:01:05. > :01:07.But actually we have specific examples of where YouTube is being

:01:08. > :01:13.used as a platform to incite violence against others.

:01:14. > :01:15.The police, who have the expertise and the

:01:16. > :01:18.intelligence, have let YouTube and Google know,

:01:19. > :01:21.and it beggars belief that they have their

:01:22. > :01:24.head in the sand and have not taken action.

:01:25. > :01:26.But it's not just down to the companies like

:01:27. > :01:29.There is a parental responsibility there and

:01:30. > :01:32.kind of taking care of what your children are watching online is part

:01:33. > :01:36.Anybody who has got kids will recognise how hard it is

:01:37. > :01:39.to police them 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

:01:40. > :01:41.Young people, like others, have access to the Internet

:01:42. > :01:44.And by the way, I'm a firm believer in freedom

:01:45. > :01:48.This is not about denying freedom of expression, this

:01:49. > :01:57.is about the police, with their expertise

:01:58. > :01:59.and intelligence, saying to YouTube and Google, we have these

:02:00. > :02:02.four examples of films that have been viewed now more than 350,000

:02:03. > :02:06.times, that could well be inciting violence.

:02:07. > :02:08.The Mayor, Sadiq Khan, speaking to our Political Correspondent,

:02:09. > :02:14.As we've been hearing, hundreds of thousands of people

:02:15. > :02:16.who use Waterloo station are facing weeks of disruption while

:02:17. > :02:21.Half the platforms have been shut, which will significantly reduce

:02:22. > :02:26.the number of trains able to use Waterloo.

:02:27. > :02:29.A number of other stations will be shut while the works are carried

:02:30. > :02:32.out, and surrounding stations including Clapham Junction and

:02:33. > :02:42.Not your regular Monday morning on the way into Waterloo.

:02:43. > :02:49.Partly the holidays, partly people preparing for today.

:02:50. > :02:59.Russell commutes every day from Grateley to Covent Garden.

:03:00. > :03:02.Network Rail's advise for people not to travel over the next three weeks

:03:03. > :03:07.My clients are in London so I have a meeting today,

:03:08. > :03:09.I can't rearrange it so I have to go in.

:03:10. > :03:14.Keith has commuted from Salisbury to Waterloo for over 30 years.

:03:15. > :03:17.He has seen overcrowding become a pressing problem.

:03:18. > :03:22.Significantly increased in volume over that period of time.

:03:23. > :03:24.London is growing, continually growing.

:03:25. > :03:27.The infrastructure needs to improve to actually cater for that.

:03:28. > :03:31.But today the platforms and trains remained half full.

:03:32. > :03:34.It is actually going a lot slower but it's very quiet.

:03:35. > :03:37.So as a commuter, that must be quite nice, having a bit more space?

:03:38. > :03:42.Pulling into Waterloo and work is underway.

:03:43. > :03:45.Ten platforms closed while they are lengthened

:03:46. > :03:50.to increase capacity by 30%, at a cost of ?800 million.

:03:51. > :03:53.The journey was fine, slow, I'm here three quarters of an hour

:03:54. > :04:06.So a leisurely commute but both men are late for work and unsure

:04:07. > :04:09.what awaits them on the way out of Waterloo after work.

:04:10. > :04:12.A 16-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder

:04:13. > :04:14.following a fatal shooting in Chelmsford on Saturday morning.

:04:15. > :04:18.It happened at a petrol station on Baddow Road.

:04:19. > :04:21.The victim's been named as 34-year-old John Pordage.

:04:22. > :04:23.Three other people have been arrested on suspicion

:04:24. > :04:30.A cabbie's shelter and a Jewish cemetery are the latest buildings

:04:31. > :04:32.in London to be listed, 70 years after the

:04:33. > :04:40.The shelter in Grosvenor Gardens, one of only a handful left

:04:41. > :04:43.in London, has been given Grade 2 listed status, as have

:04:44. > :04:45.the funeral buildings at the Willesden Jewish Cemetery.

:04:46. > :04:47.The listings scheme was set up to protect historic buildings

:04:48. > :04:51.after many were damaged in the Second World War.

:04:52. > :04:53.A man has been sentenced to life in prison for setting fire

:04:54. > :05:03.Jason Fossett was seen on CCTV piling bin bags up against a fire

:05:04. > :05:07.exit at The Two Brewers before setting fire to them back in March.

:05:08. > :05:11.Fossett previously served eight years for starting another

:05:12. > :05:16.There's no suggestion that it was a hate crime.

:05:17. > :05:18.It's thought to be London's first pub theatre since

:05:19. > :05:24.But from the end of the year, the King's Head in Islington will no

:05:25. > :05:29.The company that's been there since 1970 is moving

:05:30. > :05:35.to a new development nearby, as Alice Salfield reports.

:05:36. > :05:46.A man, a flat, a car... It's not a houseboy, it's a cleaner! He's an

:05:47. > :05:50.actor! Make no mistake, the actor who have trod the boards here are no

:05:51. > :05:55.joke. All of the great and good head started their career here often in

:05:56. > :06:01.this tiny room at the back of a pub. Whether it is Joanna Lumley or Alan

:06:02. > :06:07.Rickman. And after 47 years at its landmark location in a pub on Upper

:06:08. > :06:11.Street, the company is set to move. And distance wise it is not very far

:06:12. > :06:16.that they are moving. This building is the current dressing room of the

:06:17. > :06:20.King's Head Theatre and this will be the box office entrance to the

:06:21. > :06:25.brand-new building. From next autumn it will be housed in a purpose-built

:06:26. > :06:30.venue in the new ?400 million Islington Square development. It

:06:31. > :06:38.will have a 250 seat auditorium as well as a smaller studio and a bar.

:06:39. > :06:42.You have got to do something! League night is currently performing in his

:06:43. > :06:48.first play at the pub theatre and is looking forward to the new

:06:49. > :06:52.opportunities -- Lee Knight. The arts are always under pressure and

:06:53. > :06:56.having a new space is something exciting for the good and that can

:06:57. > :06:59.only be great for actors and the work, there will be more work

:07:00. > :07:02.created and more jobs for people behind the scenes. The executive

:07:03. > :07:07.director of the theatre said it is about keeping the doors open. Our

:07:08. > :07:12.history is wonderful and this building holds a lot of memories for

:07:13. > :07:17.a lot of people. But it is not sustainable. And the truth is that

:07:18. > :07:20.this move is means the King's Head Theatre will survive. I hope it does

:07:21. > :07:24.not change the ambience that is in-depth because you can feel the

:07:25. > :07:30.buzz created. We only come for the theatre. We have a drink when we

:07:31. > :07:35.come but I don't think it will change much. The pub will remain and

:07:36. > :07:39.the old theatre space will be turned into a dining room whilst the new

:07:40. > :07:41.theatre hopes to continue its legacy of launching the careers of London's

:07:42. > :07:44.actors. It rather feels as though summer has

:07:45. > :07:47.disappeared. Now the weather with

:07:48. > :07:57.Georgina Burnett. Fairly grumpy skies and the stubborn

:07:58. > :08:02.cloud staying put this afternoon. This was a familiar scene captured

:08:03. > :08:06.in Bromley this morning and thank you to our weather watchers for

:08:07. > :08:12.their pictures. A fairly cloudy end to the date and we have this band of

:08:13. > :08:15.showery rain coming from the West. Further south and east, more chance

:08:16. > :08:20.of missing it, maybe one or two spots with a south-westerly breeze

:08:21. > :08:22.and temperatures up to about 21 degrees. The rain will clear to the

:08:23. > :08:27.east overnight and then move north and some clear spells developing but

:08:28. > :08:33.the further north and west you are the more chance of the cloud staying

:08:34. > :08:38.put with lows of 13 or 14. Tomorrow, another wet day, the Met office as a

:08:39. > :08:42.yellow warning in place for rain as we are expecting some heavy and

:08:43. > :08:48.thundery downpours from 11am to 9pm and a further yellow warning on

:08:49. > :08:52.Wednesday the other whole day. Tomorrow, this rain band and some

:08:53. > :08:57.rain coming up from the Channel so it might be that you are the meat in

:08:58. > :09:01.the middle and get away with a few showers but limited brightness and

:09:02. > :09:06.some fairly heavy rain at times with temperatures only reaching about 19

:09:07. > :09:11.or 20 Celsius. The wind will pick up, another wet day on Wednesday

:09:12. > :09:15.hence that warning but Thursday it had an improving picture with drier

:09:16. > :09:19.and brighter conditions and sunny spells and similar on Friday. The

:09:20. > :09:20.temperature is doing their best but only really making it to the high

:09:21. > :09:21.teens. Riz Lateef will be here

:09:22. > :09:24.with our 6.30pm evening programme. But for now, from us all,

:09:25. > :09:28.a very good afternoon.
