:00:00. > :00:08.A hotspot for Islamist terrorism - nearly one fifth of all offenders

:00:09. > :00:12.in the country come from the West Midlands.

:00:13. > :00:16.It's not going to go away any time soon.

:00:17. > :00:19.It is highly likely that there will be a terrorist attack

:00:20. > :00:24.We'll also be hearing from a former Far Right leader who's now

:00:25. > :00:29.Pupils are offered counselling at a Birmingham school

:00:30. > :00:33.after a 9-year-old boy died from a suspected allergic reaction.

:00:34. > :00:37.Everybody's very sorry for what's happened so I'm

:00:38. > :00:42.here to support my children as well today who are very sad.

:00:43. > :00:45.As the struggling Sky Blues appoint their fourth

:00:46. > :00:47.manager of the season, we'll be live in Coventry asking

:00:48. > :00:54.Wacky and eccentric, he once rocked classical music.

:00:55. > :00:57.Now 60, Nigel Kennedy speaks ahead of his Birmingham

:00:58. > :01:02.And with everything burst into bloom, spring seems

:01:03. > :01:06.It's certainly warming up but there's rain, too.

:01:07. > :01:19.Get all the details with me in the forecast later.

:01:20. > :01:23."Extremism is never the answer - the cost to you, your

:01:24. > :01:26.family and your community is often horrific."

:01:27. > :01:28.The words of Nigel Bromage, who spent more than 20

:01:29. > :01:32.years as an active member of Far Right organisations.

:01:33. > :01:34.He's now spreading a message of peace and helps combat

:01:35. > :01:41.It comes as a new report from an anti-extremism Think Tank

:01:42. > :01:45.paints Birmingham as a hotspot for Islamist terrorism.

:01:46. > :01:49.It claims 18% of all Islamist terrorist offenders in the UK have

:01:50. > :01:54.80% of those were based in Birmingham.

:01:55. > :01:59.And 74% of the Birmingham offenders were from the Hodge Hill

:02:00. > :02:05.Our special correspondent Peter Wilson has been investigating.

:02:06. > :02:07.20 years ago, Nigel Bromage was spouting hate at

:02:08. > :02:14.He's returned for the first time since turning his back

:02:15. > :02:21.Within a very short time the Cock Inn came a hotbed

:02:22. > :02:30.It was our area where we controlled it, really.

:02:31. > :02:33.I'd slowly been groomed and embraced in national socialism,

:02:34. > :02:47.The only terror attack to be carried out in recent years

:02:48. > :02:52.bombs targeting mosques in the West Midlands.

:02:53. > :02:57.A racist, he also murdered grandfather Mohammed Saleem.

:02:58. > :03:00.But it's Islamist extremists who have gathered most headlines.

:03:01. > :03:06.One Think Tank this week publishes a report saying that 39 convicted

:03:07. > :03:10.terrorists came from the city, three quarters living in a small,

:03:11. > :03:18.One of the things we noticed was that offenders living

:03:19. > :03:24.in Birmingham tended to come from areas that were highly deprived

:03:25. > :03:26.and also very segregated with a large Muslim population,

:03:27. > :03:29.Heightened security around Birmingham's Christmas market,

:03:30. > :03:32.armed police in unmarked cars amid fears of a

:03:33. > :03:39.The German market may be long gone but the terrorist threat

:03:40. > :03:46.Across the country, some 13 terrorist plots have been prevented

:03:47. > :03:50.over the last four years but West Midlands Police don't

:03:51. > :03:52.want to tell you how many people they've arrested,

:03:53. > :04:00.It is not going to go away any time soon.

:04:01. > :04:03.It is highly likely that there will be a terrorist attack

:04:04. > :04:06.Those attacks are not focused on particular locations

:04:07. > :04:09.or particular places, they could affect any community

:04:10. > :04:11.anywhere and therefore every member of every community needs

:04:12. > :04:14.to understand that threat, needs to understand that risk

:04:15. > :04:17.and have the confidence to be able to report anything suspicious to us.

:04:18. > :04:20.I'm welcomed at a mosque in Balsall Heath.

:04:21. > :04:23.The threat of Islamist terrorists may be real but it's

:04:24. > :04:28.austerity and job cuts that really worry people.

:04:29. > :04:33.Those people who kind of want to be radicalised or those

:04:34. > :04:38.people who are vulnerable, I guess, to extremist radicalisation

:04:39. > :04:41.or however you kind of want to coin it or phrase it are going to be

:04:42. > :04:44.snapped up by those people in those dark corners of society

:04:45. > :04:47.or on the Internet where, you know, the mosque or the Muslim

:04:48. > :04:53.community can't actually be expected to have a say or control.

:04:54. > :04:59.Open your eyes to hate is a video released now to highlight

:05:00. > :05:04.Nigel Bromage is taking his message into schools

:05:05. > :05:12.We need to understand that extremism is never the answer.

:05:13. > :05:15.Dialogue is and it's very much if we don't understand a community

:05:16. > :05:18.we have to sit down with them and we have to learn.

:05:19. > :05:22.He says that if one man can change then so, too, can a city.

:05:23. > :05:27.Peter Wilson, BBC Midlands Today, Birmingham.

:05:28. > :05:31.Police are urging people to report any suspicious activity

:05:32. > :05:35.or extremist material to the Anti-Terrorist Hotline on 0800

:05:36. > :05:46.Pupils at a school in Birmingham are being offered counselling

:05:47. > :05:51.He collapsed at the Al Hijrah School in Bordesley Green

:05:52. > :05:54.on Friday after suffering a suspected allergic reaction.

:05:55. > :05:57.Our reporter Amy Cole is at the school tonight.

:05:58. > :06:04.This must have been a terrible shock, Amy?

:06:05. > :06:07.For some of the parents I spoke to, dismay and sadness, but then

:06:08. > :06:10.there are parents who still don't know about this tragedy.

:06:11. > :06:14.We understand the child had a food allergy, and had suffered a bad

:06:15. > :06:19.I spoke to a pupil earlier who was in the same year group

:06:20. > :06:22.as the boy and she said her Mum was around at the time

:06:23. > :06:29.My mum was quite shocked and basically he had fish allergies

:06:30. > :06:36.so he ate it and the came unconscious and it took five minutes

:06:37. > :06:43.to find the injection and by the time his breath had

:06:44. > :06:47.stopped so they called the ambulance.

:06:48. > :06:50.We must stress that it's not known if the boy was allergic

:06:51. > :06:55.to fish in particular, or indeed some other food type.

:06:56. > :07:04.The injection that Hafsah mentioned was because the boy was suffering

:07:05. > :07:07.He was taken to Heartlands Hospital where he later died.

:07:08. > :07:13.A parent I spoke to this morning whose daughter has a nut allergy,

:07:14. > :07:17.which she says the school is aware of, had decided to keep her child

:07:18. > :07:24.at home today and was keen to speak to teachers.

:07:25. > :07:29.Just wanted to make sure before I can send her again so this

:07:30. > :07:33.is an eye-opener that everyone not to treat these things lightly.

:07:34. > :07:35.Is there a lot of shock amongst parents?

:07:36. > :07:41.Just to show my condolences because the child was a Al Hijrah

:07:42. > :07:45.schoolchild and I'm sure everybody is very sorry about what happened,

:07:46. > :07:49.so I'm here to support my children as well today who are very sad

:07:50. > :08:00.As you'd expect, an investigation is underway.

:08:01. > :08:02.The school has published a tribute to him on their website.

:08:03. > :08:06.It says the boy, who has not been named, was a very popular member

:08:07. > :08:08.of the class and will be missed by everyone.

:08:09. > :08:15.Arsonists set fire to a car used by boxing star Floyd Mayweather

:08:16. > :08:19.during a visit to Birmingham at the weekend.

:08:20. > :08:22.The people carrier was parked outside the Park Regis Hotel,

:08:23. > :08:25.in Broad Street, when it was attacked at half past

:08:26. > :08:29.Former world champion Mayweather had been meeting fans at the nearby

:08:30. > :08:34.A man's appeared in court in Warwick after a pensioner was assaulted

:08:35. > :08:38.37-year-old Carl Pinder is accused of murdering Patrick Redmond,

:08:39. > :08:41.following an alleged altercation at Riley's in Hertford

:08:42. > :08:47.Pinder is due in court again in April.

:08:48. > :08:50.A Cheltenham woman who was told she may not survive without a third

:08:51. > :08:55.liver transplant is recovering in hospital after a donor was found.

:08:56. > :08:59.Alex Keel had the transplant last Wednesday.

:09:00. > :09:02.She's set to become the first patient in the UK to receive

:09:03. > :09:05.pioneering stem cell treatment to help her body accept the organ.

:09:06. > :09:08.Her family have described the donor on social media

:09:09. > :09:14.Alex is being treated at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham.

:09:15. > :09:18.A BBC investigation has found evidence to suggest the introduction

:09:19. > :09:21.of a so-called "clean air zone" in Birmingham might

:09:22. > :09:25.The proposal is supposed to cut nitrogen dioxides

:09:26. > :09:28.in the atmosphere which mainly come from diesel engines.

:09:29. > :09:32.But Inside Out has found that similar schemes in Germany haven't

:09:33. > :09:40.Exhausts pump out quite a few nasties.

:09:41. > :09:42.Some, like carbon dioxide, are thought to harm the planet,

:09:43. > :09:46.but others are said to harm you and me.

:09:47. > :09:49.Top of the list is nitrogen dioxide, most of which comes

:09:50. > :09:55.Now, the government's solution comes from Germany and, here it is.

:09:56. > :10:00.It's an Unwelt, or an environmental zone.

:10:01. > :10:03.This one in Munich is one of 47 across Germany.

:10:04. > :10:07.Only vehicles that have passed the most rigorous emissions tests

:10:08. > :10:11.It's meant Germans have had to replace their old diesel

:10:12. > :10:19.This is one of the measurement stations we have in Munich.

:10:20. > :10:22.Dr Jozef is from the German research Centre for environment and health.

:10:23. > :10:40.So, despite scrapping all those old diesel vehicles,

:10:41. > :10:43.the levels of nitrogen dioxide in Munich still well

:10:44. > :10:51.Which begs the question, why introduce controversial clean

:10:52. > :10:57.A clean air zone will address some of the problems

:10:58. > :11:04.What I need to understand and need to be clear

:11:05. > :11:06.on is whether restricting it to commercial vehicles only

:11:07. > :11:09.will address the problem of whether we have to look wider.

:11:10. > :11:11.The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs did not

:11:12. > :11:14.respond directly to our findings on clean the zones.

:11:15. > :11:29.The government is due to update its quality

:11:30. > :11:35.But if you own a diesel, it might not be good news.

:11:36. > :11:45.So, our noses do a great job of catching much

:11:46. > :11:51.We asked our science correspondent for the facts and he is here now.

:11:52. > :11:54.How does the pollution affect us? So, our noses do a great

:11:55. > :11:56.job of catching much But smaller particles slip

:11:57. > :12:00.past the nose and can go on to damage our lungs

:12:01. > :12:02.and our heart. And the very smallest particles may

:12:03. > :12:07.even get into our brain. There's plenty of focus

:12:08. > :12:11.from the Government on Birmingham because the traffic

:12:12. > :12:13.and so the pollution But there's no cut off point

:12:14. > :12:18.for pollution and its effects. So wherever you are if there's any

:12:19. > :12:21.traffic at all it is having If you take an average human life

:12:22. > :12:26.span, let's say just under 80 years, then the effects of pollution

:12:27. > :12:29.from traffic is to knock six But is there anything we can do

:12:30. > :12:35.to claw those lost months back? Well, yes, and you'll also

:12:36. > :12:37.be tackling the wider If you give up driving a car for say

:12:38. > :12:43.a short journey of say two miles and you're walking that journey

:12:44. > :12:47.instead, then you're probably doing some physical activity,

:12:48. > :12:49.which is great for your health personally, but you'll also have

:12:50. > :12:51.reduced the emissions So exercise will boost your life

:12:52. > :12:57.span and make a difference Now, next month the Government will

:12:58. > :13:04.put forward its new clean air plan. But as we saw in Ayo Akinwolere's

:13:05. > :13:08.report, some of the ideas they may suggest haven't worked out

:13:09. > :13:10.as well as people had You can find more about all this

:13:11. > :13:17.on the BBC website, go to bbc.co.uk And you can see more on this story

:13:18. > :13:24.on Inside Out West Midlands at the usual time of 7.30pm tonight

:13:25. > :13:29.here on BBC One. They don't own their own stadium,

:13:30. > :13:32.they're heading into the fourth division of English professional

:13:33. > :13:35.football and today Coventry City appointed their tenth

:13:36. > :13:38.manager in as many years. So can Mark Robins finally be the

:13:39. > :13:41.man to turn their fortunes around? Our sports editor Nick Clitheroe

:13:42. > :13:43.is outside the Ricoh Arena now. Why have the club changed

:13:44. > :13:52.managers yet again Nick? Well, they say desperate times call

:13:53. > :13:55.for desperate measures and the Sky Blues are certainly

:13:56. > :13:58.at their lowest point Relegation looks inevitable

:13:59. > :14:04.and the appointment of Mark Robins is being sold as a chance

:14:05. > :14:08.to rebuild the club. Just a warning, my report

:14:09. > :14:13.contains flash photography. When Russell Slade was appointed

:14:14. > :14:16.Coventry manager in December, he was supposed to be the man

:14:17. > :14:19.to save them from They may have drawn at Shrewsbury

:14:20. > :14:24.on Saturday but that still left them 13 points from safety with 11

:14:25. > :14:26.games to go. His replacement is Mark Robins,

:14:27. > :14:31.who managed the club for five months He's been given a contract that

:14:32. > :14:36.extends beyond this season I think it's promising if he's

:14:37. > :14:52.planning for next season already Hopefully the owners

:14:53. > :14:55.back him this time around. It's like, you know,

:14:56. > :14:57.they say rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic

:14:58. > :14:59.when the ship's going down. I think we all know

:15:00. > :15:01.that the problems are Without a change of ownership,

:15:02. > :15:06.nothing's going to change. It's that issue of the

:15:07. > :15:08.club's owners, SISU, There have been frequent fan

:15:09. > :15:12.of protests against them but they show little sign of selling

:15:13. > :15:16.up or major investment in the team. Rebuilding Coventry's fortunes

:15:17. > :15:19.on the pitch against that backdrop will be a massive test

:15:20. > :15:25.of Mark Robins' managerial talent. It's no exaggeration

:15:26. > :15:28.to say the problems facing They only have a lease to play

:15:29. > :15:33.here at the Ricoh until the end of next season and there's no real

:15:34. > :15:37.sign of them finding a permanent There are also debts

:15:38. > :15:40.of more than ?40 million. The Sky Blues Trust say it's frankly

:15:41. > :15:45.embarrassing for the club to be on its fourth manager of the season

:15:46. > :15:48.and have urged SISU So plenty for Mark Robins to talk

:15:49. > :16:04.about when he meets the media As a committed football fan I really

:16:05. > :16:07.feel for Coventry City supporters going through such turbulent times,

:16:08. > :16:08.I know what it is like from experience.

:16:09. > :16:10.Thanks for joining us on Midlands Today, this

:16:11. > :16:14.An independent report says nearly one fifth of all Islamist terrorism

:16:15. > :16:16.offenders in the country come from the West Midlands.

:16:17. > :16:18.Well, what a beautiful morning it was today.

:16:19. > :16:21.I walked for miles in the sunshine, but was it a false dawn?

:16:22. > :16:25.To some degree, yes but we musn't be too down hearted,

:16:26. > :16:28.We may not have had as much sunshine as today

:16:29. > :16:32.but there's rain for the blooms that are already bursting into life

:16:33. > :16:44.Also this evening, off the wall and wacky when he shook up the world

:16:45. > :16:47.of classical music some 30 years ago - we're talking to Nigel Kennedy

:16:48. > :17:00.It's a race against time to save a rare and historic

:17:01. > :17:11.piece of Wedgwood pottery for the Midlands.

:17:12. > :17:13.Fundraisers need to raise more than ?450,000 to stop

:17:14. > :17:15.a vase made by Josiah Wedgwood himself some 250 years ago

:17:16. > :17:18.from leaving the country and keep it in Stoke-on-Trent.

:17:19. > :17:21.ARCHIVE: In a factory where craftsmanship dates back

:17:22. > :17:26.Think of some of the famous pottery names that came out

:17:27. > :17:28.of Stoke-on-Trent and Wedgwood will almost certainly be

:17:29. > :17:33.Josiah Wedgwood changed the way ceramics were made and his designs

:17:34. > :17:39.As his fame grew, he moved from Burslem to a brand

:17:40. > :17:42.new purpose-built factory in Etruria, where on its opening

:17:43. > :17:50.Now, a fight is underway to keep one of those in the city it was made in.

:17:51. > :17:54.Something he conceived, made, touched, held in his hands.

:17:55. > :17:59.It's that important, it's absolutely unique.

:18:00. > :18:02.For 35 years it was on loan to the Potteries Museum

:18:03. > :18:05.and Art Gallery, but now there's a hole in the exhibition where it

:18:06. > :18:09.used to sit because last year it was auctioned by Christie's

:18:10. > :18:15.We have the finest ceramics museum in the world.

:18:16. > :18:19.What other reason than that reason could you have than to keep

:18:20. > :18:32.It gives it more identity identity to be here.

:18:33. > :18:35.It means a lot to this city and to this museum.

:18:36. > :18:37.The government has put a temporary stop on it leaving the country,

:18:38. > :18:44.but to keep it here is going to cost almost ?500,000, and there's not

:18:45. > :18:48.This isn't the first time the museum has had to raise funds to keep

:18:49. > :18:50.important artefacts here, like the Staffordshire Hoard

:18:51. > :18:53.and of course the famous Ozzie The Owl found on the BBC's

:18:54. > :18:57.So far, enough money has been raised to unlock a grant

:18:58. > :18:59.from the Arts Council and the local authority are confident they'll

:19:00. > :19:03.It has been on show that long in this museum,

:19:04. > :19:06.quite a number of years, so really it should be kept here.

:19:07. > :19:09.It's sad to see it, you know, it's been sold to an overseas bidder.

:19:10. > :19:13.At a time when budgets are tight, campaigners are hoping people

:19:14. > :19:15.in the city will help to keep this important historical

:19:16. > :19:18.item where it can be enjoyed for years to come.

:19:19. > :19:25.Rebecca Wood, Midlands Today, Stoke-on-Trent.

:19:26. > :19:28.We've already heard about the change of managers and the turmoil

:19:29. > :19:32.Dan's here with the rest of the sport and a fantastic day

:19:33. > :19:41.Full house, they are nearly safe, not quite yet, though. They have

:19:42. > :19:47.made a huge stride to premiership football with a thumping win over

:19:48. > :19:51.Bristol. Just one side will be relegated and yesterday's game was

:19:52. > :19:55.between the bottom two. It was expected to be tight and tense but

:19:56. > :19:57.Worcester's 41-24 victory leaves them seven points clear of restore

:19:58. > :19:58.with just five games to go. The players in the dressing

:19:59. > :20:03.room knew it, too. But if there were any nerves

:20:04. > :20:05.in the Worcester camp, they were almost immediately

:20:06. > :20:07.quelled. It took them just over a minute

:20:08. > :20:10.to score a penalty try. It was like getting

:20:11. > :20:12.a seven-point headstart. Bristol were rocked and Worcester

:20:13. > :20:14.took full advantage. Scrum-half Francois Hougaard

:20:15. > :20:18.pouncing on a loose line-out His dash from another line-out ended

:20:19. > :20:27.with a try for Bryce Heem. A bonus point for scoring four tries

:20:28. > :20:32.was secured before half-time. Worcester built a lead of 36-10

:20:33. > :20:37.before a bit of a wobble. When Bristol winger Tom Varndell

:20:38. > :20:40.intercepted to score, Bristol suddenly had bonus points

:20:41. > :20:44.in sight themselves. But any thoughts of a comeback

:20:45. > :20:48.were finally killed off when Wynand Olivier scored

:22:41. > :22:42.on Birmingham's first ever Lauren Johnson made

:22:43. > :22:51.her debut on Saturday. He was the man who brought classical

:23:32. > :23:34.in Solihull, he's about to return to Birmingham for a Gala Concert

:23:35. > :23:38.to celebrate his 60th birthday. It is kind of like my voyage

:23:39. > :23:43.through, or a large part And so there's quite

:23:44. > :23:50.a lot to put together. Nigel will also be performing some

:23:51. > :23:55.of his own new compositions, like this piece called Solitude,

:23:56. > :24:00.Dedicated to Yehudi Menuhin, who It was written and inspired during

:24:01. > :24:09.Nigel's time living in Malvern. I think a lot of composers have been

:24:10. > :24:12.influenced by nature. Elgar's music is very much

:24:13. > :24:15.influenced by the Malvern Hills. So I've been tracking around

:24:16. > :24:19.the hills just in the same way that Elgar might have been and it made

:24:20. > :24:23.some quite profound As well as music, there's one other

:24:24. > :24:28.major passion in Nigel's life. I mean, it's more like lion

:24:29. > :24:32.cubs at the moment! Everyone said oh, it's

:24:33. > :24:35.the end of the world, I prefer playing

:24:36. > :24:37.in the Championship. We've got the Bluenoses,

:24:38. > :24:40.we've got Wolves, we've got, like, Forest and Derby,

:24:41. > :24:42.I mean going to them or Sheffield Wednesday,

:24:43. > :24:44.going to clubs like that going to Bournemouth and Watford,

:24:45. > :24:48.mean which league is bigger? So having hit the big 6-0,

:24:49. > :24:55.what about the future? Well, I have done a landmark

:24:56. > :24:57.birthday just recently and like the one thing it has

:24:58. > :25:00.helped me focus on is are we going to win the FA Cup

:25:01. > :25:03.or going to win a major trophy, Nigel's Gala Celebration concert

:25:04. > :25:10.is at the Birmingham You can see more of that interview

:25:11. > :25:18.on our Facebook page. If I tried to play a violin,

:25:19. > :25:34.I'd make it rain in five minutes. I'm afraid not, it can't go on. How

:25:35. > :25:39.-- however today was brimming with signs of life but a sunrise like

:25:40. > :25:44.this is always a great way to start the day. It sets up the rest of the

:25:45. > :25:48.day on a good fitting. But we had a lot of blue skies and sunshine right

:25:49. > :25:52.across areas and we had flowers here in Warwick and scenic views across

:25:53. > :25:56.Shropshire as well. Things are changing and that is by the end of

:25:57. > :25:59.tomorrow. We have a frontal system pushing in from the West through the

:26:00. > :26:02.course of tomorrow night and that will set the ball rolling on a

:26:03. > :26:08.downward slope for the rest of the week. In summary, this is how the

:26:09. > :26:10.rest of the week is looking. We have spells of rain, some sunshine

:26:11. > :26:16.tomorrow but it is going to turn milder from Wednesday onwards and

:26:17. > :26:20.then windier into the weekend. This evening we have a few showers

:26:21. > :26:22.scattered about the region. They are starting to feeding from the

:26:23. > :26:26.south-west. They will gradually fade away late on the night leaving clear

:26:27. > :26:29.skies and in the countryside just a spot of frost here and there.

:26:30. > :26:34.Generally temperatures will be down to four or five Celsius. They sell

:26:35. > :26:41.you start to the day tomorrow. We will hold onto sunshine, just a

:26:42. > :26:46.bitter cloud milling around. That sunshine will turn hazier as a cloud

:26:47. > :26:48.starts to drift in from the south-west. Initially high cloud and

:26:49. > :26:52.it won't stop those temperatures from rising to between highs of

:26:53. > :26:57.eight to 10 Celsius with light south-westerly winds. Looking ahead

:26:58. > :27:00.to tomorrow weeding to the macro evening and overnight we have heavy

:27:01. > :27:04.rain pushing in from the west stretching right across the region

:27:05. > :27:07.and this will last much of the night. With the Carling mile night,

:27:08. > :27:12.temperatures a minimum of six Celsius. It is mild to begin with on

:27:13. > :27:18.Wednesday but it should be largely dry. Rain out of the way, leaving

:27:19. > :27:20.behind a light scattering of showers and then those systems start to move

:27:21. > :27:22.Thursday onwards from the south-west.

:27:23. > :27:26.I'll be back at 10.30pm with your late update.
