up, did the bollards up, did the pedestrian eyes parliament square? bollards up, did the pedestrian eyes parliament square ? there bollards up, did the pedestrian eyes parliament square? there is a knock on effects of that —— pedestrian eyes parliaments where. if you try to do that there are security applications with theresa may really be walking from downing street to parliament today? it is no easy thing and yet the refrain you always hear is we will not let the terrorists win, we will not change out terrorists win, we will not change our normal way of life and yet it feels —— if you are tearing up the urban landscape to make... that is certainly disruption and change up why we are changing our behaviour to a degree but i suppose that has to happen up to a point. but to your point, laura, the bbc has actually led on the genoa bridge collapse throughout the day. i think obviously when this was unfolding first thing this morning, it was the lead story on some radio bulletins but i think the main news alerts and have been leading on genoa and i has been a certain amount of praise for 1's on the twitter sphere for the bbc for doing that. —— for once. it
10:46 pm
is not the front page of the guardian, and it is not on the front page of the financial times actually, looking at it. is that the top. the bridge collapse is at the top. the bridge collapse is at the top. do you think the media are now sensing that this is the way to go with some of the attacks? it obviously depends on severity of the attack, when it happens and so on and so forth. i saw the evening standard frontpage which we don't have in front of us and i was terrifying. if i was a londoner to meeting my way home that would really put me out of kilter —— commuting my way home. actually, the number ten came out in defence of oui’ number ten came out in defence of ourdirty number ten came out in defence of our dirty services this afternoon when we had our lobby briefing they talked about the number of incidents is -- talked about the number of incidents is —— security services, and how well we are doing. if this is the only thing that happens this summer actually londoners can feel as though we are being protected and is extraordinary. whenever this happens i looked at the policeman guarding
10:47 pm
the gate and i think you are extraordinary and you are standing here. it is one of those things, the prime minister broke from her holiday and gave a statement saying we will not let them defeat us but this does sort of give him, i don't wa nt to this does sort of give him, i don't want to give him all of this attention. sure. i will get into trouble here now. we had two people injured, one... three people injured, one... three people injured, one... three people injured, one woman in hospital with serious injuries and the question about it this guy drives into a pollard and crashes. is that the front page lead rightly so on the front page lead rightly so on the front of the telegraph, do you think? i think it is dwelling on the impact. obviously it is not seeking to hold and put this person on a pedestal. previously we have seen out let's focus on the victims and given that we know the oxygen of publicity is what they crave, the inevitable id of the manhunt afterwards, he was at? the speculation, their story and we know the technique seems to be similar to
10:48 pm
what was last year with the almost having a car and driving it down by oneself, sort of isil inspired, from that playbook, there is a responsibility it seems to try to break from that chain and not just give them what they want. interesting questions for the media and on the front pages that we have. staying with the daily telegraph, the genoa story, what the bbc has been leading on throughout the day. an appalling story, bearing in mind the bridge was apparently refurbished and re—examined just two yea rs refurbished and re—examined just two years ago. and it's completely shocking. obviously the account talks about firefighters with sniffer dogs working into the night searching for survivors and we have scoi’es searching for survivors and we have scores of people believed dead, many more injured. cars and lorries were pledging 150 feet to the ground. it is all frankly very much shocking —— we re is all frankly very much shocking —— were plunging. we have to wonder what brings it home almost if this
10:49 pm
is italy, this seems to be one of the western nations that should not be had —— should be having budgets to make sure bridges are well furnished, they don't collapse underweight and the government is blaming underinvestment over the years. we are italy is battling its owi'i years. we are italy is battling its own budgetary —— budget restraints, having its own monetary problems and this clearly seems to be the impact, to tragic impact on the ground. that allegation has been made quite a lot. italy's crumbling infrastructure is the result of financial problems over the last few yea rs financial problems over the last few years meaning vital pieces at the infrastructure not being tapped or at including bridges. which is actually quite terrifying and i feel like if i was in italy, i was an italian i would want there to be some sort of review of every single piece of infrastructure in my country, which divide between not going to happen. you would hope that in the same way that results tragedy prompted us to look at —— the
10:50 pm
g re nfell tower prompted us to look at —— the grenfell tower tragedy prompted us to look at our country, to ensure it never happens again and that was reviews of all the cladding on tower blocks, will we see the similar response in italy? are they going to now go through all the bridges which is exactly what you would want as an italian or a holiday—maker. think how many bricks are in italy, you would want to know the roads you are driving on our state in european country —— how many british art in italy. how has this happened. absolutely. going onto the guardian, top pay rises by 11% as worker's wages fail to match inflation, on the same that we hear that unemployment is at its lowest level since 1975. looking at the figures you have the bosses of the top ftse 100 companies, their paved raising six times the rate of their workers. it is not a good look —— their pay is rising. it is interesting to me that they use —— these stories are
10:51 pm
still coming out and these discrepancies still allowed to happen. ifeel like discrepancies still allowed to happen. i feel like we've discrepancies still allowed to happen. ifeel like we've had discrepancies still allowed to happen. i feel like we've had so much public backlash and seen all these companies failing and falling and it seems like something that to me by with a big company i would not be looking —— i would be looking at what the figures will look like. if someone what the figures will look like. if someone not advising and saying this is all going to come out in the media and look really awful? they don't care, do they? it is the committees that decide it, the shareholders they would argue it's up to them to hold them to account and so clearly there may be questions about how active are they and what impact they have. do we ever see any of them come out and say this is not right? but one wonders why, the reason why ordinary workers pay is not rising as high as inflation and so on and so forth is a lack of productivity. how come that does not apply to the board level? i don't understand. is quite funny, i'm sure we can all think of
10:52 pm
people who steve executives who are widely reported to not necessarily be earning their massive pay packet, the performance related to bonuses are not there they do seem to get one every year. there seems to be a lack of a connection between what they deliver... i want to see one come out tomorrow and say this is not right, i don't deserve this. yeah, right. ilook forward not right, i don't deserve this. yeah, right. i look forward to that happening. front page of the guardian, a labour corbyn, labour hits at at old passed out at false claims over corbyn visit. this is a story that seems to be gaining a bit of traction throughout the day. absolutely, it is running and running and now we have the bizarre scene of a waiver basically trying to nit—pick about where exactly —— labour to basically trying to nit—pick, that is their get out clause essentially. it might not be nit—picking. clause essentially. it might not be nit-picking. it is a bizarre thing
10:53 pm
to see. the critics will battle it back and say does not matter because here are photos of saying he was right there at the cemetery at another —— in other interviews he's basically admitted he was there on the ring these people, whenever you call them. it is the classic thing with these corbyn rows of a thorough up enough chaff that people get distracted. the organisers can say with a straight face he's being smeared on poorly, the corbyn base are not changing, whereas the critics it confirms everything they have ever held dear. what on earth are the labour moderates doing? they have known he has these relationships with people, these palestinian activist and all that and they are still sitting there campaigning for him to become prime minister. laura, he has made time again that he is not an anti—semite, that he believes that all manners of race, all kinds of racism are appalling. he believes in peace, and that means talking to both sides of
10:54 pm
any divide when it comes to war or peace or whatever. yes, and his views are well—known, they are long—standing, they go back years and years and years for me, the bizarre bit of the story is that the message we have been getting from his office is sometimes different to the one he delivers an interview on tv, and it is alljust a bit confusing. i don't think it's been handled very well and as a result it is blown out of proportion and running and running and running. if there was a black and white, yes and no, rightand there was a black and white, yes and no, right and wrong answer with labour have shut it down on the day? this is the bit that's confusing to me. how is the story allowed to run and run and respectable newspapers or the bbc,... he is meant to be a straight talking politician. he could have given an interview clearing that up. and it's all rubbish it should have been shut down with hard evidence on day one. the financial times briefly, home based as set 42 stores, more
10:55 pm
problems for the high street. there it is, the front page. if we have the time i would like to go on to briefly ben stokes. cleared of afraid to leave to freight in his trial. very important but bitter for england. the selectors may be pleased about this as well as ben stokes. definitely because now he can be back in the game as it were. being taken up to play against india very imminently. it speaks to the idea that after all of this fury surrounding him when armchairjudges of twitter will be pontificating about the impact in their own views of the case whatever they may be. he's having to be rehabilitated, coming back to normal life and it's a gradual process in action as we are seeing. top sporting stars, especially big guys, they can be targets for certain kinds of abuse, particularly in pub situations. be advice to him from past professionals —— the advice, keep
10:56 pm
his head down when he goes for a pint. yes. the whole case has been strange to me because i seem a lot of different headlines popping up andi of different headlines popping up and i was really confused having not really read every story and followed it, just seeing the flashes of you with homophobic, suddenly the next day he's not in use been cleared and twitter saying he was guilty and actually i think we should be leaving the jurors to do theirjob and that is the point of the system. and they have done it and he's been found not guilty. you too will be backin found not guilty. you too will be back ina found not guilty. you too will be back in a few minutes. you'll be back in a few minutes. you'll be back for a late final edition of the papers coming up so stay with us for that and don't forget you can see all the front pages online on the bbc news website. it is there for you seven bbc news website. it is there for you seven days a week at bbc .co uk/ and if you missed the programme you can and if you missed the programme you ca n always and if you missed the programme you can always get later. we'll be back inafew can always get later. we'll be back in a few minutes' time. thank you
10:57 pm
for watching. good evening. mixed fortunes and our weather over the next few days, that is certainly how it was today. a bit of sunshine around particularly toward the south coast of england, but for many more places it was pretty cloudy and the clouds thick enough across parts of scotland and northern ireland to bring outbreaks of rain. on the satellite picture you can see that extra cloud across northern areas. you can also see this next weather system starting to develop and that again is going to feed rain across northwestern areas initially but eventually further south and east over the next couple of days. for the rest of tonight quite a lot of cloud at their particularly in western areas, the odd spot of rain, something a bit more persistent into northern ireland and western scotland tonight. there is but across the join eastern areas and wherever you are fairly warm and at times monday night. in tecau quite a lot of cloud
10:58 pm
around the freezer parts of england we see sunny spells, dashed into tonight what a lot of cloud around. the odd spot of rain, extra cloud into northern ireland and for scotla nd into northern ireland and for scotland we seek outbreaks of rain at times but not all the time, some drier and possibly brighter glimpses in between. quite breezy across the northwest of scotland as well. her northern ireland a bit of extra cloud, splash of the rain in a similar story for north west england, wales and the southwest but for the midlands east anglia and the southeast crowd breaking up from time to time to give spells of sunshine and temperatures in the southeast corner up into the mid—20s celsius —— cloud breaking up. that will change into thursday. frontal systems working further south and east bringing outbreaks of rain even into the southeast corner at stage and behind that we get into some cooler, fresher air on thursday. a big drop in the temperatures come early rain across east anglia and the south east been the skies brightened we see spells of sunshine but blustery, heavy thundery showers
10:59 pm
into western scotland, northern ireland, brass northern england and temperatures across the board taking a tumble. 16 in glasgow, 20 in london. for the end of the week another change. this area of low pressure pushes its way in from the atlantic. again northern and western areas that bear the brunt of the rain, pretty strong and gusty winds back here as well. whereas further south and east it will stay largely dry and things look pretty changeable as we head towards the weekend. this is bbc news. i'm clive myrie. the headlines at 11pm: 26 people have died and 15 were badly injured after a motorway bridge collapses in northern italy. emergency workers are trying to free people caught in crushed vehicles and under rubble near the town of genoa. police are searching three addresses in the midlands, after a 29—year—old man was arrested on suspicion of terrorism, following a car crash outside parliament. three people were injured by the ford fiesta, which swerved
11:00 pm
into cyclists and pedestrians shortly after 7:30am this morning. given that this appears to be a deliberate act, the method, and this being an iconic site, we are treating it as a terrorist incident. this is the scene right now in westminster, as the suspect‘s car is taken away. the england cricketer, ben stokes, has been cleared of a charge
