butt, a 27 a father of two young children, he had worked on the london underground before turning to extremism. the night, police around his home. he he was well—known and well up. my kidsjust love to play with him. she is a neighbour, she now says she feels fooled. he was kind, he shared the suites with the neighbours. i was blind. kind, he shared the suites with the neighbours. iwas blind. he kind, he shared the suites with the neighbours. i was blind. he is not going to go there, he is going to go there. scary, we have children here. benjamin jeannot would say hello there. scary, we have children here. benjaminjeannot would say hello to his neighbours, even on the day of the attack. yes, i can remember saying hello. what was he like? just quiet. what was he wearing? arsenal t—shirt. quiet. what was he wearing? arsenal t-shirt. was the calm when you saw him on saturday? yes, he was calm. we thought he was moving out because he was parked in the

middle—of—the—road. he was parked in the middle-of-the-road. moving out, because michael watched the london attacker with another man in a white van, speeding on saturday night. around 6:30pm. what was the van doing? it screeched up, it drew pretty fast. so it was speeding up, then breaking? didn't break on the bend, itjust then breaking? didn't break on the bend, it just went. then breaking? didn't break on the bend, itjust went. he wasn't happy with the way women were dressed, he wa nted with the way women were dressed, he wanted women to wear hijabs. this teenager new khuram butt. they would talk in parks, in a nearby mosque. he didn't want to show his face and asked us to protect his identity. he would talk about syria mostly, afghanistan, they get bombed and most people don't have food, don't have homes to live. he said the pair would debate syria, iraq and islamic state. was jihad important would debate syria, iraq and islamic state. wasjihad important to him? really important to him. do you

think he was trying to radicalise them? not sure. why wouldn't want to turn out like a bad person, i wouldn't want to do that kind of thing. khuram butt, responsible for seven innocent deaths, and today more raids, more searches to get to the truth of those behind the london attacks. ed thomas, bbc news, barking. let's bringing professor michael clarke from the royal united services institute. thank you for your time. there have been a number of development is today, what have you made of them? this is where we go from phase one of the investigation to phase two. phase one is where there is an immediate attempt by the authorities to close the plot down. they want to keep the names of the perpetrators to themselves or they can get round one of their associates and make sure there was no one else out there they are there was no one else out there they a re really there was no one else out there they are really concerned with. phase two, what we are moving to today, the press start to get hold of the names, they can work it out, so then they announced the names, they have

announced two of them and that is in the sense where they bring the public into it. they are saying would have you know about these people, tell us so we can reconstruct, certainly the last year oi’ reconstruct, certainly the last year or two of their lives, to help us understand what they were connected with and where that should take the rest of the investigation. with and where that should take the rest of the investigationlj with and where that should take the rest of the investigation. i am sure there are a lot of people watching in the uk and around the world who are shocked that someone in plain sight, someone who had featured in a high—profile documentary, is then able to carry out an atrocity like this. i always get asked in these cases could it have been prevented? usually the answer is no, but in the case of the manchester attack last month, and in this case, the answer may be yes, because there were some red lights flashing, certainly in the case of mr bout. but certainly with aberdeen in manchester and butt, it looks like there were some indications that were missed. we

know it bothers the politicians, the prime minister is rumoured to be very angry about the fact that the intelligence services seem not to recognise some of these flashing lights. you mention the politicians, the opposition labour party and the prime minister are engaged in fierce arguments over whether police cuts impacted on the ability of the police to spot this coming and respond to it. what is your analysis of that? cuts in police members is important for all sorts of reasons but counterterrorism isn't one of them, because the counterterrorist operations are really pretty good in the uk. in the other hand what they miss in cutting numbers of police on the beat as it were that community intelligence, as a policeman said to me not so long ago, it is the local butcher having a chat with you, the fellas on the high street telling you about this and that. that sort of community involvement with the police may have suffered because of police may have suffered because of police cuts. that is something that feeds in not just police cuts. that is something that feeds in notjust the terrorism but crime in general. but the counterterrorism budget has been maintained and counterterrorism in the uk is quite good. comments by

cressida dick, the commissioner of the metropolitan police in london, who said the majority of the terrorist threat is currently posed from people in the uk, home—grown threats. were you supposed to hear her say that? not at all. all of these events, they shock us but don't surprise us. since 2005... in the years ahead, and we can work together to build a stronger, fairer and more prosperous britain for us all. but it is only a conservative vote on thursday that will deliver that vision of a stronger, fairer, more prosperous britain. and we have... applause we have just two more full days of campaigning to go out there around

the country, out there earning the support of people to work together for that stronger future, for that brighter future for this country. and i believe passionately that we can build that better britain for the future, because the promise of brexit is great. the opportunities out there are enormous. we can work together to build that better future for us all. we can work for a better country where it doesn't matter who your parents are, it depends on your willingness to work hard. a country thatis willingness to work hard. a country that is more global and outward looking, confident in itself. a country where we do take the most of the opportunities, where we ensure the opportunities, where we ensure the talents of all people in communities across the country are able to be used and developed for the future. that is what i see as the future. that is what i see as the future. that is what i see as the future of this country. together

we can do great things. applause you know, at this point in the campaign, the issues, the key issues that people face on thursday are actually the same as they were right at the very beginning of the campaign. the question is who can they trust, who can you trust to have a strong and stable leadership to ensure that we get the best possible deal for britain in europe, because brexit matters, because it is the basis of everything else? and who has the will, who has, crucially, the plan to actually make sure that we get on with the job and deliver brexit for the british people? theresa may. thank you, yes! applause thank you, thank you, and that

matters, because, remember... laughter the brexit negotiations startjust 11 days after the election, so we have got to be there, we have got to be up and running, there is no delaying, we have got to have that plan, and we have it. butjust remember this reality, too: if we lose just six seats, then the government loses its majority. and that would mean jeremy corbyn in number ten... that would mean jeremy corbyn in numberten... diane that would mean jeremy corbyn in number ten... diane abbott in the home office... john mcdonnell at the treasury. and nicola sturgeon pulling the strings. so every vote for me and for local conservative candidates will help to stop that from happening, and every vote for

me and local conservative candidates will strengthen my hand in those brexit negotiations, to get the best deal for britain. but it is also, it is about getting the best deal abroad but also about getting a better deal for ordinary working people often done this country. so, yes, it is about that brexit deal, bringing control back on our money, out bringing control back on our money, our laws and our borders. it is also about forging new trade relationships around the world for out relationships around the world for our goods and services, so we open up our goods and services, so we open up those new opportunities. it is about ensuring that we back those who work hard, helping businesses to create more and higher paid jobs, but also bringing new rights and protections for workers. it is about ensuring people have a better chance of owning their own home by building more affordable homes, ensuring prosperity and growth are spread across the country with our modern industrial strategy, with a secure economy, a strong economy so we can

find our public services. the more money into the national health service so it is they're providing that first class service for people and we can care for our elderly. it is about ensuring every child has a good school plays, a good school place for every child, and also that for the first time in this country we have proper technical education for young people as well. applause and it is also about of course that we protect our national security and our defence. that we deal with the terrorists, we defeat the terrorist bobby also stand up to extremism that tries to divide our societies. so as that tries to divide our societies. soasl that tries to divide our societies. so as i say, two more full days to go to be up there, campaigning, to

ensure that we secure people's votes on thursday. it is not a question of who people voted for before, it is a question of who they want to see leading this country into a brighter future. we have the plan, we have the vision, we have the resolute determination, the optimism to go out there and do that, and i believe it can be done, because i believe in britain andl it can be done, because i believe in britain and i believe in the british people. so i will be out there for the next two days, up and down the country, campaigning hard forthe election on thursday. i am offering myself to people as their prime minister, andl myself to people as their prime minister, and i offer that vision and that plan for a stronger, fairer, more prosperous britain, but only the people can give me the mandate. well, thank you, iwas going to say my message is a simple one, all i ask is that people give me your backing to lead britain.

applause give me... give me the authority to speak for britain, strengthen my hand when i fight for britain, and, with your backing, i will deliver for britain. thank you. thank you very much. very good to see you. the theresa may there campaigning in west yorkshire. speaking to a lot of young people there at that election rally. and reiterating some of the stump speeches she has talked about in the last few weeks of the campaign. she said if you want a

leader who will deliver strong and sta ble leader who will deliver strong and stable leadership, then that would be the conservatives. she talked about brexit, reiterating that the talks on brexit actually start just 11 days after the election. and she talked about the security situation, of course, following saturday's terror attacks, and said that the conservatives and her party have a plan and the government has a plan to deal with the terrorists, and to deal with security problems there. we are actually hoping to talk to our political correspondent, ben wright, who is following the prime minister, at some point, to get some of his analysis on this. i think ben is actually ready for us now. hello, there. the theresa may has just wrapped up in west yorkshire. a lot of similarcampaign wrapped up in west yorkshire. a lot of similar campaign themes we have been hearing over the last few weeks from her tonight. but security, of

course, a big part of it now? yes, very much so, and has been through the day, various campaign visits that she has done. around the uk and scotla nd that she has done. around the uk and scotland in west yorkshire. perhaps unlike the days following the manchester attack, today soon after those london stabbings and murders, it is right back into this issue of security. it is a very explicit part of the election campaign i think the first time, primarily becausejeremy corbyn has gone in hard today on the theresa may's record as home secretary, pointing to those cuts in police numbers, about 20,000 since 2010. theresa may has retaliated by saying the number of armed officers has started to increase again, explaining how reconfiguration of this police service hasn't harmed what they can deliver, in her view. but this is now a sharply argued front this election campaign, which has definitely today gone into a

higher gear again. you get a sense on the campaign trail that there are just two and a bit days now until polls open and it is very interesting she is here in west yorkshire, one of the seats near here is bradford south, somewhere the tories haven't won since 1918, but seats like bradford south, with a labour majority of 6500, are now in theirgrasp, a labour majority of 6500, are now in their grasp, primarily in this pa rt in their grasp, primarily in this part of the world because the ukip boat was really large last time round. in bradford south that was about 9000, and the tories are hoping that this message on brexit, on security, is going to get a large chunk of that ukip boat into the tory column come thursday. yeah, thoseissues tory column come thursday. yeah, those issues over security and her time as home secretary over the last few years, she is now having to defend policies and ideas and her past in order to win a future

campaign. yes, she is, and her record as home secretary is clearly under scrutiny and that is what labour will continue to do up until polling day. she is trying to head off those criticisms made by action so far by talking in political terms about the approach to counter terrorism that there needs to be after polling day. she set out the four broad principles on the steps of downing street yesterday that she thinks should govern the approach into the future. themes she has been talking about today, tackling extremism at its source, trying to stop people becoming islamist extremists in the first place, while beefing up counterterrorism of course, suggestions of a new counterterrorism bill the other side of the election. so she is trying to get on the front foot, and also bringing the key question of

leadership in the play, fundamentally asking voters who they wa nt fundamentally asking voters who they want in numberten, fundamentally asking voters who they want in number ten, making these ready difficult decisions when it comes to dealing with the terrorist threat. ben, thank you very much. ben wright in west yorkshire. let's change gear and get some sport. katherine downes. hello, good evening to you, fans and players have been reacting to the news that former newcastle midfielder check pod has dialled down the —— checked the cheeked yet has died at the age of 30. he played his international football for —— cheick diote. alan shearer as well has been on

twitter, of course newcastle united's highest ever goal—scorer, he says devastating use of the death of cheick tiote. rest in peace. —— devastating news. chelsea winger eden hazard has had surgery today after breaking his ankle on sunday while on internationaljudy with belgium. the premier league champions are waiting to discover if he will be fit for the start of next season. hazard will miss belgium's friendly against the czech republic and their world cup qualifier against estonia on friday. on the tennis. andy murray is through to the french open quarterfinals after a straight sets win over russia's karen hakan. murray beat the unseeded 21—year—old. straight after his win he paid tribute to the victims of the whee kim's terror attacks in both london and

manchester. it was a terrible tragedy in london. we had also in manchester only six or seven days ago. paris has also had some problems, in the last year or so. and i am sure everyone would join me in sharing our thoughts and prayers with everyone who has been affected by this. applause it is obviously something that has affected large parts of europe and all over the world. and obviously one thing is to keep getting better and keep appreciating everyone still coming out to support the tennis, creating a fantastic atmosphere. i am grateful i can come out and perform in front of you, thanks. not such good news for andy's

brotherjamie though — he and doubles partner brazlian bruno soares were knocked out by santiago gonzalez and donald young in the doubles quarter finals. murray and soares took the first set but then lost the next two on tie breaks. england's cricketers take on new zealand in their second icc champions trophy match in cardiff tomorrow. england's win in their first match is starting to look significant with the weather playing a part in matches involving their group rivals. in matches involving rain has curtailed the match between bangladesh and australia. bangladesh were bowled out for 182 — despite 95 from tamim iqbal. australia had made good progress in reply, reaching 83—1 before the rain arrived just four overs shy of what would make it a completed game. they are due to resume again at eight 30 but it's started to rain again. great britain had a disastrous day at the america's cup semi finals,

after a broken wing ruined their chances against new zealand. in race one of the day in the bahamas, ben ainslie's boat ground to a halt with a mechanical issue. as new zealand took the win, the damage was so severe that britain couldn't take to the start line in race two an hour later — so they're 2—0 down in the first to five races playoffs. so fingers crossed ben ainslie can engineer another amazing comeback. that is all the sport from me. tonight sees the last of the bbc special question time programmes, featuring the party leaders. tim farron and nicola sturgeon are in the hot seat before a studio audience in edinburgh. it had originally been scheduled yesterday but was postponed after the london bridge terror attack. it has been a busy day in for the political party, and we have a quick rundown of who has been saying what ahead of the night's event. ok, actually, we are going to talk to katrina renton. can

you hear me? i think you are there. yes, iam here. we are you hear me? i think you are there. yes, i am here. we are at george watson's college in edinburgh. a magnificent backdrop for the night's question time special, the last of the question time specials, and as you said, it features the leaders of the liberal democrats and the snp being taken on by a studio audience. they eat get —— each get half an hour. tim farron won the toss and elected to go first. he has been taking some questions in their from thejudeo audience taking some questions in their from the judeo audience and taking some questions in their from thejudeo audience and nicola sturgeon will be in the second half hour. it is a normal question time format. this is high stakes for the politicians. they don't know what questions are coming up, they have been submitted in advance and the original people get asked questions but then of course it is thrown open to the audience. they all get to put their hands up and asked the questions they want to ask. as we

saw last week in friday's debate between theresa may and jeremy corbyn, they were both put under quite a bit of pressure by that studio audience, with theresa may being questioned about the cap on nhs pay and also about social care, and jeremy corbyn being asked if he would fire nuclear weapons should britain be at war. these were difficult questions for both of these leaders to be put under. i expect the leaders in their will be put under an equal amount of pressure. as you said, this was meant to happen yesterday but it was postponed because of a terror attack in london and was rescheduled for this evening. they will be on air between nine and ten on bbc one. i think we can expect a lively and passionate debate from in there in george watson's college full stop yes, if the previous debates are anything to go by, it should be very lively. finally, yes, tim farron and nicola sturgeon don't know what the questions are but nicola sturgeon will have to be prepared for a

question on a future referendum and of course tim farron on what his plans are for brexit. i think that is right. inevitably there will be questions about terror after everything that has happened over the last couple of days, indeed the last couple of weeks, when we go back to manchester just a fortnight ago. his very interesting that there will be the constitution, because brexit, the lib dems usp of course is that they would have a second referendum on brexit. nicola sturgeon saying she would like to see a second scottish referendum once the term is known. she is saying if she gets enough votes, scotla nd saying if she gets enough votes, scotland is the largest party, that will give her a triple lock mandate for a second scottish referendum because she already says she has it from the last holyrood elections,

she said there should be a second scottish referendum for the people to decide. she got that mandate in march from the scottish parliament and then she is saying if she get a mandate this time that would be the question, but of course the liberal democrats are very much against that. so i think the constitution is bound to be on the agenda in there today, as it has been all day for those of us who have been following the party leaders run the country. 0k, the party leaders run the country. ok, good to see you. katrina renton in edinburgh, looking at the night's debate. you can see all of it on bbc one at 9pm, and a little later here on the news channel. , chef fanaika has all the weather news. not very pleasant out there at all, in fact the bad weather is going to continue through the night. we will continue through the night. we will continue with the heavy rain across many parts of the country, and those winds, if anything tomorrow might even be stronger in some inland areas. the cloud has been shrouding

the uk over the last few hours or so, the heaviest of the rain has been across these more western, south—western areas and out through the course of this evening the heavy rain will be pushing in the south—western scotland, the lake district, generally this more northern part of the country. to the south that the wins will be swinging the more of a north—westerly and it really will be blowing hard, particularly around those coastal areas stop so a blustery picture. the low—pressure slap bang over us. a lot of isobars. it looks a little bit more like water —— like autumn rather than june. the bit more like water —— like autumn rather thanjune. the window of slightly better weather at this stage, eight o'clock in the morning across the south of wales in the south—west, more sunshine around but remember it is very windy. these are average winds. it could be gusting close to 50 mph around some of those coasts. it is strong for the time of the year and will really whipped up the year and will really whipped up the trees. the rain continues to fall across many parts of scotland, central and eastern areas, the

borders, and then basically through the course of the day it stays wet through northern parts of england and scotland, the strong western north—westerly winds continue. rather than it being overcast, it will be quite bright with occasional blustery showers, whereas further north and east it will be cloudy with rain on and off through the day and also some strong winds blowing through. an unpleasant data of us tomorrow and that rain in the north will continue into tomorrow evening as well. as we head into wednesday, that low—pressure pulls out into the north sea. we have a window of better weather, the next one coming in here. the winds will be later, it will feel a lot warmer. still a little fresh in the north, and then we have some rain later in the day moving into south—western areas and thenit moving into south—western areas and then it is all over again. these are south—westerly wind so perhaps feeling a little bit warmer if it

does brighten up across the south—east. hello. this is bbc news. i'm clive myrie. the headlines: police have named two of the three men responsible for the london bridge attack. they‘ re khuram butt and rachid redouane. 27—year old khuram butt was a british citizen, born in pakistan, who used to work on the london underground. he was known to the security services but police say there was no evidence he was planning an attack. a vigil has been held in central london to commemorate the seven people who died, and 48 others injured in saturday's attack. 18 people remain in a critical condition. the first victim to be named is 30—year—old christine archibald from canada. the sister of james mcmullan says she believes her brother is also among the dead. britain is facing an unprecedented wave of terror attacks, according to the metropolitan police

commissioner, cressida dick. she's described the challenge facing the country as a new reality. police have named two of the men who attacked crowds near london bridge on saturday night as khuram butt and rachid redouane. our home editor, mark easton, reports. we now know the identity of one of the three killers who brought death to london bridge. khuram butt was a 27 year from a british pakistani family. four years ago he worked in sales and customer services for kentucky fried chicken. last year, he was a customer service advisor for transport for london. he was also a radical islamist, pictured here for a channel 4 documentary at an event organised for supporters of a man who encouraged people to join so—called islamic state. he was jailed last year. there will be astonishment

as to how someone with such well—known extremist views was able to carry out a murderous attack. flowers at the border of what is now a huge crime scene in the heart of the capital, tents marking the places in borough market where people fell, forensic officers gathering clues and evidence. the head of the metropolitan police and the mayor of london visited the area today. i am angry and furious that the three men are seeking to justify their actions by using the faith that i belong to. the ideology they follow is poisonous and has no place in islam. we know that four police officers were injured in the attack. one of duty officer who challenged one of the knifemen is still in a serious condition.

more than three dozen others are still in hospital, 18 of them critically ill. we need police and ambulance as soon as possible. one of the victims was named today as 30—year—old christine archibald from canada. it is deeply chilling and horribly sad to see what we have just seen, and to think about the barbarous acts on saturday night. we saw extraordinary courage and professionalism and compassion from our public servants. london is getting back to normal. this bunch of flowers almost the only sign of the carnage there was here on london bridge on saturday night and into sunday morning. but a huge police and security operation is continuing, trying to map the network of people behind the ideas that spawned mass murder on london's streets. in newham in east london, locals were awoken at around 4:30am by an explosion as police

raided a terrace house. armed police went in, and after nearly 15 minutes, they brought three men and three women out. there was also a police operation at a garage. there were loud bangs and what may have been gunshots heard. searches continue. seven women and four men arrested a few hundred metres up the road yesterday are still being held under the terrorism act. today has also been about giving thanks and saying thanks to all those touched by the events of saturday night. really quite emotional. it is really emotional. london is my hometown, so it means a lot to me. this evening, a vigil is being held in a public park just a short distance from where seven people lost their lives on a saturday night in london town.

mark easton, bbc news. a canadian woman is the first of the seven victims of saturday's attack to be officially named. she was christine archibald who was visiting london for the first time with her fiance. this report from our special correspondent allan little on the victims of saturday's attack. the faces of those caught up in the attack reflect the character of london — diverse, global and a magnet drawing youth and energy from around the world. chrissy archibald, who was 30 and from canada, was walking on london bridge with herfiance tyler ferguson when she was struck by the killer's van. he heard tyres screeching, and he looked back and he just saw the mayhem that was going on, and the van hitting people. and then he ran up and tried cpr on her. and she passed in his arms.

her family said she would not have understood the callous cruelty with which she was killed. the french foreign ministry said one french citizen was murdered, another seven french nationals were injured, four of them critically. a ninth is still missing. candice hedge was one of four australians injured. she was stabbed in the throat and is now recovering in hospital. she was hiding at the time and the guy got her, and stabbed her in the neck somewhere. that's really all i know. i was really, really scared. but i eventually got onto the hospital, and they spoke to me, and they said she's fine now. she is going to be ok, that's the main thing. daniel o'neill, who's 23, suffered a seven inch wound to the abdomen. his life was saved by a friend, who stopped the bleeding by applying a tourniquet. geoff ho, a journalist, was stabbed while time to stop an attack on someone else.

i don't know whether it was stupid or noble, he said on facebook, but that wasn't going to happen on my watch. oliver dowling from new zealand needed four hours of surgery. his french girlfriend was also injured, and is in a different london hospital. brett freeman, who is from east london, is a father of three and was stabbed four times. a friend posted this picture on social media with the words, "he's a soldier." 18 people remain critically ill, most of those who died have yet to be named. the list of those killed and injured reflects the character of a global city. an attack in london sends its anguish around the world. allan little, bbc news, london. president trump has criticised the mayor of london, sadiq khan, for the second time in two days, in the aftermath on the attack on the city on saturday. the us president has taken to twitter to accuse mr khan of offering a "pathetic excuse" for saying there was no reason

for people to be alarmed. this afternoon, new york mayor, bill de blasio, has condemned mr trump's tweet and has said the mayor of london is doing an ‘extraordinaryjob' my my message to the people of london is we stand in solidarity with all londoners. we have been through attacks and know what it feels like. the mayor is doing the right thing. he is telling people that they can be assured that the security forces will be reinforced, will be present, will be reinforced, will be present, will be reinforced, will be present, will be visible. that is exactly what a leader is supposed to do. i don't understand why donald trump is trying to undermine a man who is trying to undermine a man who is trying to undermine a man who is trying to protect the people of london. it makes no sense. sadiq khan is an exemplary mayor and the mayor of one of the capital cities of one of our closest allies. he deserves support, and not as undermining him. i don't follow it. we do this all the time. the nypd reinforces key points in the city

after an incident, and we tell people openly. expect to see more police presence, don't be alarmed but reassured. that is exactly what sadiq khan has said. it's what i say, commissioner o'neill says, what any good leader would say. maybe donald trump does not have a lot of experience handling security situations, but it just experience handling security situations, but itjust makes no sense. it is not fair to sadiq khan or the people of london. bill de blasio, mayor of new york. as we've heard, there's been claim and counterclaim from politicians on the campaign trail today about police and security. so, what do those on the front line feel they need: more resources or more powers? our correspondent gordon corera has been looking at the arguments around the security response to the terror threat. the aftermath of the third attack in three months, with questions about what can be done to stop more. today, the political row was all about police numbers. the total number of police in england and wales did fall i3% from 2009 to 2016. the number of firearms officers fell by a thousand in the

same period. but last year, more money was announced to bring it back to its peak of 7000. firearms officers are important in responding to an attack, but stopping them in the first place may require a different debate. police and mi5 say they are dealing with a threat that is different to what has been seen before in scale and nature. at the moment, there are 500 live counterterrorist investigations. these involve 3000 people suspected of involvement in terrorism. but crucially, there are another 20,000 people who have previously been subjects of interest. and recently, it has been those people that have turned to violence, sometimes with little warning. a major challenge for police and mi5 is spotting if any of these individuals suddenly move towards planning an attack. so does a new threat require a new approach?

it may require more resources in some areas. it takes dozens of trained specialists surveillance officers to follow someone around the clock. but it also might require new ways of working with security services needing to go back over old cases to more systematically review if an individual‘s threat profile has changed, and making sure tip off that come in on the anti—terrorist hotline are properly examined. but will it also require extra powers? some politicians have talked about new forms of detention without charge, a beefed up version of the control orders which used to operate. others have called for more specific measures, like limiting people's ability to buy phones or communicate anonymously. police and mi5 have not called for new powers yet. but they recognise they will need to adapt to keep pace with the terrorist threat, and this will take more than just numbers. gordon corera, bbc news.

the prime minister has accused technology firms of not doing enough to remove jihadist propaganda. theresa may called for international agreements to regulate cyberspace to prevent the spread of extremist material. google, facebook and twitter say they‘ re investing significant resources in fighting the spread of extremism. amol rajan looks at the criticisms facing social media companies. if you know what you are looking for, it is easy to find extremist propaganda on the internet. online magazines and videos with high production values that glamorise the struggle to establish a colour that are shared widely on social media and messaging apps. the spotlight is on the technology platforms that host such material. despite public concern, google and twitter declined a request for an interview, and not for the first time. google said they invest millions in

fighting abuse. facebook say they work aggressively to remove terrorist content. twitter said such material has no place on their platform. extremists are migrating onto messaging apps like whatsapp, which have end—to—end encryption, creating a safe place where those extremists can operate. opening a back door to such apps brings its own problems, and could bea brings its own problems, and could be a gift to cybercriminals. a lot of people naturally think these technology companies make billions in profit and should be to account. that is true of course but these issues are complexly no single solution. one problem is the pure volume of material uploaded every day, but the deeper question is whether or not internet country agriculture companies with no democratic mandate should be given the power to say who sees what online. governments can find tech firms if they don't remove extremist material but some do not think that is a good

idea. regulation is complicated, you need to recognise that you are not making incentives to set up more than you need, to remove free speech rather than just removing terra content. you need to i confident you are not you need to be confident you are not upsetting a delicate balance. as calls for technology giants to clamp down on technology grow, its not clear that granting more power over our lives to the tech companies is the best solution. the headlines on bbc news: police have named two of the three men responsible for the london bridge attack. one was 27—year old khuram butt — a british citizen born in pakistan, who was known to the authorities. a vigil has been held close to london bridge, to remember the victims of the attack. 36 people remain in hospital, 18 of them in a critical condition. christine archibald from canada is the first victim to be named. the 30—year old was visiting london for the first time with her fiance. the first funeral of one of the

it, this is the tree! you can see the church! it can happen in an actor's life, if you are very lucky, that something special turns up. when i read last of the summer wine i thought, this is it! long before the summer wine, peter sallis was a familiarface... on the summer wine, peter sallis was a familiar face... on television the summer wine, peter sallis was a familiarface... on television he played samuel pepys and casanova, in a heyday of studio drama. he appeared in classic serials like the palaces. i'm sorry, gromit. the fact is... in his 70s, those nasal yorkshire tones became famous thanks to animator nick park. it is my turn for breakfast this morning, gromit. steady on! gromit! nick park cast

him as the voice of his plasticine character wallace, in films like the wrong'un trousers. peter sallis worse comic and shrewd. peter sallis was an automatic choice for the part. cracking toast, gromit. here we go... few actors are lucky enough to have such good parts. he was a modest man, not unlike the characters he created, but a talented one as well. you said reverse. the actor peter sallis, who has died at the age of 96. on the line is peter clarke, creator of the bbc sitcom, last of the summer wine, which peter sallis stared in as clegg in all 295 episodes of the show between 1973 and 2010. he really made that part his own, of clegg. some up what he gave to that part? well, it was tailored to him

from the word go. i had worked with him before. iwanted him for the part. it was always going to be the perfect fit. but he used to get the best lines. he used to say the things that i wanted to say, and was a lwa ys things that i wanted to say, and was always immaculate in everything he did. his personality was so well—suited to that part. did. his personality was so well-suited to that part. he bought a gentleness and a wistful innocence that really summed up the whole programme? yes, he had that kind of personality, there was something essentially english about peter. you wouldn't find it anywhere else. it's almost a dickensian character in many ways, he had a wonderful sense of humour. dickens had seen him, he

was a wonderful picture. a wonderful comparison, then he goes on to more fame in wallace and gromit? indeed! he was a very versatile actor. the play that i wrote for him before last of the summer wine, he played something quite sinister. he could do that. he was a very flexible actor. and your thoughts now. he has passed away but led a life that gave a lot of people a lot ofjoy? indeed. i would like to mention his bravery, it always impressed me. for many years he had great difficulties with his eyes, he could not see very well at all. he had enormous problems that i never once heard him moan all complain, he just soldiered on. he was a wonderful guy. roy, it is good to talk to you. roy clarke,

the creator of last of the summer wine. peter sallis, who has died at the age of 96. in plymouth, a number of postal vote papers have gone missing in the city. the council have confirmed that these ballots are baulk three constituencies. martin nosesin baulk three constituencies. martin noses in the studio. good to see you, take us through what has happened? we heard from a number of voters who would disappoint —— who we re voters who would disappoint —— who were disappointed and angry that they had not received the postal ballot papers that they had applied for. the city council have confirmed an unspecified number that have appeared to have gone astray. they have not told us at this point how many or said which constituencies are affected. plymouth city council,

is returning officer, will have coverage of three seats. one is south west devon, partially rural, thatis south west devon, partially rural, that is an extremely safe tory seat. the other two plymouth seats are extremely marginal, in the case of plymouth sutton and devonport, the tories held over it with just over 500 votes. it is marginal. people who are entitled to vote are not being able to. in terms of political outcomes, this could be significant. is that really it? if such postal ballots are lost in the post, do you lose your vote, or is there a replacement that can be sent out? the council have said that they are investigating. the rules are issued by the electoral commission on this. as you would expect, they have

specified some tight safeguards surrounding the way in which postal ballot papers are consigned. with the appropriate career. if people say that they have not received them, but there is clearly a mechanism for returning officers to issue replacements, the rules do say that the returning officer needs to be satisfied as to the identity of the individuals involved, and then documents like passports and drivers licenses need to be produced. it does sound as if, through no fault of the individuals who have not received their papers, if they then need to, at the last minute, apply for a replacement, it is a rather more cumbersome process than the initial application for a postal vote which is intended to make your lives easier. exactly! martyn oates, it's good to talk to you. thank you. in our plymouth studio. time for a
