0:00:00 > 0:00:12That's all from the BBC News at One, so it's goodbye from me,
0:00:12 > 0:00:14Good afternoon, I'm Asad Ahmad.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16So the Chancellor has been delivering his Budget -
0:00:16 > 0:00:19his first since the General Election - with more eyes
0:00:19 > 0:00:21upon him than usual.
0:00:21 > 0:00:24In London, people are wondering what he's going to do
0:00:24 > 0:00:27about the pressing issue of building more homes, and of course, the NHS.
0:00:27 > 0:00:28He'll be looking to revive the Government's
0:00:28 > 0:00:33fortunes in London, where they faired badly in June.
0:00:33 > 0:00:34Our political editor, Tim Donovan, is in Westminster
0:00:35 > 0:00:36following what's been said.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40Tim...
0:00:40 > 0:00:44In the last few minutes I am hearing that Grenfell Tower has been
0:00:44 > 0:00:49mentioned?Yeah, it would have been hard for the Chancellor to ignore
0:00:49 > 0:00:55such an event this year. He has said he is making available £28 million
0:00:55 > 0:00:59to deal with some of the mental health issues that have arisen after
0:00:59 > 0:01:03what happened at Grenfell and to provide community space. No more
0:01:03 > 0:01:08detail. It may emerge later. He was also clear he would not be ruling
0:01:08 > 0:01:12out helping local authorities with safety work on tower blocks,
0:01:12 > 0:01:16although as we know, at the moment very little money has gone out the
0:01:16 > 0:01:20door. It has been stressed that is for essential work. The only other
0:01:20 > 0:01:24major announcement is quite technical but could be important.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27London is being allowed to pilot a way of keeping all the business
0:01:27 > 0:01:31rates, all the money levied on businesses in this capital each
0:01:31 > 0:01:37year, keep any increase on that this year and are divided between the
0:01:37 > 0:01:44mayor and the boroughs. That could go into infrastructure. There was a
0:01:44 > 0:01:48brief mention of the infrastructure project, Crossrail two, but not
0:01:48 > 0:01:52quite as much as the mayor would have liked.
0:01:52 > 0:01:57Mr Deputy Speaker, we are piloting 100% business rates retention in
0:01:57 > 0:02:02London next year and continuing to work with TEFL on the funding and
0:02:02 > 0:02:08financing of Crossrail. The mayor was hoping for action on
0:02:08 > 0:02:14air quality.Is he going to be happy today? He has already introduced a
0:02:14 > 0:02:18zone here. He will be developing the idea of tackling high polluting
0:02:18 > 0:02:23diesel vehicles. Not much from the Chancellor is specific to London.
0:02:23 > 0:02:32There will be a £220 million clean-air font that London will be
0:02:32 > 0:02:38competing for against other cities. Taken as a whole so far, I would say
0:02:38 > 0:02:45the Budget seems to have suggested an emphasis on the Midlands, Tyne &
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Wear on the north, infrastructure projects there, rather than the
0:02:48 > 0:02:51capital. I know you will spend this afternoon
0:02:51 > 0:02:55analysing what has been said. We will hear from you later. Thanks.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Scientists at the University of London may have found a drink,
0:02:58 > 0:03:00which effectively fights deadly infections like MRSA and Ecoli -
0:03:00 > 0:03:02without the need for antibiotics.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04It was discovered by a farmer in Surrey,
0:03:04 > 0:03:07who used the mixture for his cows.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09But now the human version of the drink may become
0:03:09 > 0:03:13an alternative for those resistant to traditional antibiotics.
0:03:13 > 0:03:20Helen Mulroy has more.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23And delegates from south London knows first-hand how serious it can
0:03:23 > 0:03:32be when antibiotics don't work. -- Angela.My immune system was very
0:03:32 > 0:03:36low over 20 weeks last year. I said to the doctor, I can't do this, not
0:03:36 > 0:03:42for another year.The inefficacy of antibiotics is an all too common
0:03:42 > 0:03:52occurrence which we are being warned could get worse. With scientists
0:03:52 > 0:03:56around the globe looking for alternatives, one potential option
0:03:56 > 0:04:01may have been discovered in an unlikely place in Surrey.I was a
0:04:01 > 0:04:04farmer feeding concentrated pellets to my animals, I knew it was laced
0:04:04 > 0:04:08with antibiotics. I thought they needed to be a better way of doing
0:04:08 > 0:04:14this.Former farmer Barry Smith stumbled across a drink from Froch
0:04:14 > 0:04:17created from fermented barley. More than a decade later it has been
0:04:17 > 0:04:23developed into a food supplement for humans. Probiotics may be a term you
0:04:23 > 0:04:26are familiar with from your own fridge. But the key to their success
0:04:26 > 0:04:29is ultimately where they can survive the journey through the hostile
0:04:29 > 0:04:34environment that is our bodies and make it to our digestive system
0:04:34 > 0:04:38alive. And that that is something this has proven to be good at.If
0:04:38 > 0:04:44you have got an infection and you take it, the testing showed your
0:04:44 > 0:04:47pathogen numbers will go down and all of your good bacteria will go
0:04:47 > 0:04:54up.For Angela it has been a game changer.It has absolutely changed
0:04:54 > 0:04:59my life. I feel better now than before I even became ill.With her
0:04:59 > 0:05:02husband she is looking forward to making plans for the future.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07British Transport Police have released footage of two
0:05:07 > 0:05:09teenagers from East London, who've been convicted of endangering
0:05:09 > 0:05:11the safety of a person, after they filmed themselves train
0:05:11 > 0:05:15surfing at 80 miles an hour.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17They stood between carriages on the train between Brentwood
0:05:17 > 0:05:19and Manor Park, and uploaded the footage to YouTube,
0:05:19 > 0:05:22which alerted police.
0:05:22 > 0:05:2518 year-old Harris Ahmed from Manor Park, and a younger boy,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27were given a Community Order and a fine.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29British Transport Police say they'll prosecute anyone who copies this
0:05:29 > 0:05:35"reckless" behaviour.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38An archive strongroom specially created by
0:05:38 > 0:05:41East London Mosque, and the first of its kind in Europe,
0:05:41 > 0:05:45will be unveiled by the Mayor of London in a few hours' time.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48It charts the history of Muslims in London, and has documents
0:05:48 > 0:05:50going back a hundred years, showing how not only Whitechapel,
0:05:50 > 0:05:52but the rest of London has changed.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Tolu Adeoye is there.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59I'm here at the East London mosques to get a sneak preview of some of
0:05:59 > 0:06:04the documents that will be part of the UK's a Muslim archive for. We
0:06:04 > 0:06:09can see some of them here but they will be kept in a strongroom in the
0:06:09 > 0:06:14basement of the mask. I am joined by the chair of the archives. Tell me
0:06:14 > 0:06:18about some of these documents?This is our oldest document. It is from
0:06:18 > 0:06:24the 1890s. It belonged to the merchant seamen who settled in an
0:06:24 > 0:06:29area by the docks. The first Muslim population was in the East End of
0:06:29 > 0:06:33London.And over here I spotted a London Underground sign. What is
0:06:33 > 0:06:39this about?This is from 1941 when there was a mosque on commercial
0:06:39 > 0:06:46Road and there was a need for a bus stop. This is an application. The
0:06:46 > 0:06:54response was a very polite no.What does it say?It says, your request
0:06:54 > 0:06:58for a quotation for notices to be led -- to be delivered on road
0:06:58 > 0:07:04vehicles has been referred.They are considering it. Any other things you
0:07:04 > 0:07:10would like to point out?I really like this one. During the 70s there
0:07:10 > 0:07:13was a lot of anti-racist trouble in the East End and there was
0:07:13 > 0:07:18solidarity from the Jewish community is saying, we stand by you at this
0:07:18 > 0:07:24difficult time.These are just a few the 200,000 document and items being
0:07:24 > 0:07:27held in the archive. Members of the public can view them by appointment.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30A fascinating collection.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane says his team have
0:07:32 > 0:07:34proved the doubters wrong, by finishing top of one
0:07:34 > 0:07:36of the toughest groups in this season's Champions League.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Spurs beat Borussia Dortmund in Germany, after already
0:07:38 > 0:07:41beating European giants Real Madrid.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44The win comes after their disappointment at the weekend,
0:07:44 > 0:07:46when they lost to North London rivals Arsenal in
0:07:46 > 0:07:52the Premier League.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Now let's check on the weather with Kate.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02Good afternoon. We have still got some mild air for this afternoon.
0:08:02 > 0:08:08But a strengthening wind. It may not feel as mild as the numbers suggest.
0:08:08 > 0:08:13The wind is breaking up the cloud. We have had some lovely sunshine.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17This afternoon that is likely to stay in the South and east. That
0:08:17 > 0:08:20strengthening wind, the Met Office has a yellow weather warning in
0:08:20 > 0:08:25force. It is for today and overnight. The strongest winds
0:08:25 > 0:08:28likely to arrive towards the end of the afternoon and into the evening,
0:08:28 > 0:08:34just in time for a rush hour. The maximum temperature likely to reach
0:08:34 > 0:08:3914 Celsius. The breeze may make it feel cooler. The wind continues to
0:08:39 > 0:08:45strengthen this evening. Strong and gusty. 30 to 40 mph. Potentially
0:08:45 > 0:08:48stronger. The rain clearing away as we head towards dawn. Still mild
0:08:48 > 0:08:53despite the wind and rain. It is still going to be breezy tomorrow
0:08:53 > 0:09:00but not as strong. That would chase away the showers first thing.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Temperatures still reaching 14 Celsius but he will start to notice
0:09:03 > 0:09:06it will feel a little bit cooler. That cooling trend continues into
0:09:06 > 0:09:11Friday. Much colder. A chilly start on Saturday.
0:09:11 > 0:09:12That's it.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14There's plenty more on our Facebook page and Twitter feed.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16And BBC London is back on BBC One at 6.30.
0:09:17 > 0:09:23Bye for now.
