Government's ultimate to the Moscow
over the nerve gas poisoning | 0:00:00 | 0:00:00 | |
Good afternoon.
I'm Asad Ahmad. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
One of Labour's London MEPs
appears to be at odds | 0:00:15 | 0:00:19 | |
with her party over Brexit -
as she's questioned whether it | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
might happen at all. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:27 | |
Mary Honeyball has served
in Brussels for nearly two decades | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
but difficulties in negotiations
have caused her to | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
doubt the outcome. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
However, another London MEP
is certain that next year | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
he'll be out of a job and Brexit
will have happened. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
Here's our Brexit reporter,
Katharine Carpenter. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:49 | |
Well, apologies for that, we seem to
be having some problems. We will try | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
to get that report back to you as
soon as possible. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
Oxford Street could be
pedestrianised in time for Christmas | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
after proposals to ban vehicles
were backed in a consultation. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
About half a mile of the street
would become a "traffic-free | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
pedestrian zone" under the plans,
which the Mayor's office says | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
will make it "one of the finest
public spaces and shopping streets | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
in the world". | 0:01:14 | 0:01:15 | |
A final decision is due
in the coming months. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:23 | |
An Independent chicken shop
in Reading claims its being | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
bullied by the restaurant chain
Nando's - because of its success. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
Nando's has launched legal
action against the shop | 0:01:30 | 0:01:38 | |
called Fernandos, saying its copying | 0:01:38 | 0:01:38 | |
its name and images. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
Lawyers for Nandos have
written to the owner, | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
Asam Aziz calling on him to rebrand. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
Mr Aziz denies he's copied
the name, saying he got | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
the idea from a TV show. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:52 | |
Let's see we can go back to that
report about the London MEP who | 0:01:52 | 0:01:56 | |
thinks Brexit may not happen. | 0:01:56 | 0:02:07 | |
For 18 years, Mary Honeyball has
made this journey. She still | 0:02:08 | 0:02:13 | |
believes Brexit could be stopped and
denies it has an impact on who work | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
here yet. Obviously everybody here
is aware Brexit, but we are still in | 0:02:16 | 0:02:21 | |
the European Union and getting on
with our jobs. But for one of the | 0:02:21 | 0:02:26 | |
two London MEPs who voted to leave
the EU, things have been more tense | 0:02:26 | 0:02:32 | |
at times. On other things that went
through my mind is Will I have to | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
resign, will I lose my job? I was
prepared for that. I thought I | 0:02:36 | 0:02:41 | |
should put my own position ahead of
my decision. The UK has 73 MEPs, | 0:02:41 | 0:02:47 | |
eight of them represent London, and
they earn just over 100,000 per year | 0:02:47 | 0:02:53 | |
before taxes, with generous pensions
and allowances. Mary Honeyball | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
admits that maybe they could have
done more to counter the perception | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
by some that they are living the
high life in Brussels. One of the | 0:02:59 | 0:03:04 | |
consequences of Brexit is that
Europe, European Parliament, what | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
the EU does, is suddenly shot up the
political agenda. Sadly it has taken | 0:03:07 | 0:03:13 | |
Brexit for people to take an
interest in it. Now I think we are | 0:03:13 | 0:03:17 | |
getting a lot of exposure and people
do know who we are and what we do. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:21 | |
For Mary, that involves meetings
like this Brexit briefing with her | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
political group, and work with the
women's committee. It would be a | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
real shame to miss seeing something
you have worked on for a long time | 0:03:28 | 0:03:33 | |
not actually happening, in practice.
She also says she is unclear about | 0:03:33 | 0:03:38 | |
when her role will end, although her
colleague has no doubts. My job will | 0:03:38 | 0:03:43 | |
come to an end at the end of March
2018. At that time, the UK will | 0:03:43 | 0:03:48 | |
leave and there will be no British
MEPs. Will you feel sad about it, | 0:03:48 | 0:03:53 | |
despite your vote? Of course, I have
made many good friends, I have been | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
an MEP for nearly 14 years. And it
has been a large part of my life. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:02 | |
Both of them are coy about their
future ambitions, saying there is | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
still much work to do over the
coming year. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
Two London mosques have gained
Grade II Listed status | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
to recognise their "historic,
architectural and | 0:04:11 | 0:04:12 | |
cultural importance". | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
The Heritage Minister said
the Islamic Cultural Centre | 0:04:15 | 0:04:19 | |
at Regent's Park and the Fazl Mosque
in Southfields celebrated the rich | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
heritage of Muslim communities -
which go back hundreds of years. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
It's been described
as an exceptional place of worship. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
Now London Central Mosque has been
given Grade II star listed status, | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
recognising its historic
and cultural importance, | 0:04:33 | 0:04:34 | |
and protecting it for
future generations. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:41 | |
Mosques and the Muslim faith
are an extremely important part | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
of our national culture and life,
but they are somewhat | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
under-represented on our list
of important buildings. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
So, it's really rewarding to be able
to undertake this exercise | 0:04:50 | 0:04:53 | |
and protect the most important
mosques, and celebrate them. | 0:04:53 | 0:05:02 | |
The movement to establish a central
mosque in London spans | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
from more than 70 years,
although the first fund | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
for the new mosque was set up
in 1910, construction didn't | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
start until 1970. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:10 | |
It was finished seven years later. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
From outside, you can really
appreciate the architecture. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
Regents Park was picked
as a location under | 0:05:18 | 0:05:20 | |
Winston Churchill's government back
in the 1940s, in recognition | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
of the importance of the Muslim
community in an increasingly diverse | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
British society. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:28 | |
While mosques are still typically
established that local community | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
level, the London Central Mosque
remains the first remaining example | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
to be built at a diplomatic level. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:43 | |
Of the main points of the campaign
to the mosque was that, the time, | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
and this is from 1910 onwards,
the argument was that there | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
were more Muslim subjects
in the British Empire | 0:05:49 | 0:05:55 | |
than there were
Christian, for example. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:56 | |
But that there was no
nationally significant Mosque | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
in Britain to represent that. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:02 | |
The Fazl Mosque in Southfield,
in London, has been given | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
Grade II listed status. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:05 | |
Both mosques join a group
of around 20 celebrating | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
not only the buildings,
but the heritage of Muslim | 0:06:08 | 0:06:18 | |
There's concern that hundreds
of promising young footballers may | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
be slipping through the net -
because they're too | 0:06:23 | 0:06:25 | |
small for their age. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:30 | |
It comes after research
highlighted the issue | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
- and it's something BBC | 0:06:32 | 0:06:33 | |
School Reporter, Gianni went down
to Charlton Athletic Academy | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
to look into. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:36 | |
The Charlton manager Karl Robinson
has been aware of the loss of small | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
players for some time. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:40 | |
He says that this can
lead to talented players | 0:06:40 | 0:06:43 | |
leaving their clubs,
and in some cases dropping out | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
of the game completely. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:46 | |
I think them days have gone,
where size is paramount. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
Certain managers would
recruit purely and simply | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
on the physicality. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
I think there was a thing
about Mourinho, about the type | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
of players that he recruits. | 0:06:56 | 0:06:57 | |
But, no, not for me. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
I don't think size
is an issue any more. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
Sanchez! | 0:07:01 | 0:07:02 | |
Oh, Sanchez has scored
an absolute beauty. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:07 | |
Some of the leading Premier League
strikers, such as Alexis Sanchez, | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
are small in stature. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
That was unstoppable. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
But is it all about
physical attributes? | 0:07:14 | 0:07:20 | |
If youngsters have those mental
attributes, which means they're | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
willing to look for a coping
strategy, so they can compensate | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
for what might be a temporary
disadvantage in size, | 0:07:26 | 0:07:31 | |
if they've got the mental
attributes to cope with that, | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
develop coping strategies,
then they'll probably be fine. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
That is a good ball
through the middle for Defoe. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
Snap shot. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:40 | |
Smaller players like
Jermain Defoe have had long | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
and successful careers. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
So youngsters shouldn't be put off
because they are a few inches | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
shorter than everyone else. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:48 | |
Now the weather with Kate. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
Good afternoon. Despite it starting
rather grey this morning, quite | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
quickly we saw this, blue skies,
sunshine and brakes on a cloud. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:03 | |
Really quite pleasant first thing.
Since then, the clouds rolling back | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
in. We're going to see a patchy
cloud here and there through the | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
afternoon. Still bright spells,
sunny spells, with a small risk of a | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
shower. Most places managing to
avoid them. This cloud is migrating | 0:08:13 | 0:08:20 | |
slowly eastwards. Temperature is not
that bad until 11 Celsius. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:24 | |
Overnight, clear skies, temperatures
dropping down a little further than | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
it has recently. A much colder night
tonight, out in the suburbs and | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
beyond. It could get down to zero.
Patchy cloud through the early hours | 0:08:32 | 0:08:36 | |
of tomorrow morning. Most towns and
cities hovering just above zero. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
Tomorrow morning, a bright start.
Quite chilly. Through the day, mild | 0:08:39 | 0:08:44 | |
air moving in. We will see a
strengthening south-easterly wind. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
That will start to the course of
tomorrow afternoon. A breezy day. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:51 | |
Still mild. The maximum temperature
of 14 Celsius. It's all change | 0:08:51 | 0:08:56 | |
overnight Wednesday and into
Thursday. That south-easterly wind | 0:08:56 | 0:09:00 | |
starts to go from the East, and we
lose the milder air. It is replaced | 0:09:00 | 0:09:05 | |
with colder air from the east. Much
colder air as it heads into Saturday | 0:09:05 | 0:09:10 | |
and Sunday. Yes, you will notice
things could turn progressively | 0:09:10 | 0:09:17 | |
wintry, with temperatures
significantly colder and we could | 0:09:17 | 0:09:18 | |
see wintry showers. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
That's it. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:22 | |
Riz will be here at 6.30
with our next news on BBC One. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
But for now, have a
very good afternoon. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 |
