organise. bristol. i think the rail service probably his killer was taken on by people needs to be improved nationwide from the same conference, including otherformer before they can think prisoners and by about putting up fares. i've just come over from cambridge a passing policeman and it would have been cheaper in civilian clothes, before being shot dead by firearms officers. the attacker, usman khan, was automatically released from prison last december, half way through a 16—year sentence for plotting to bomb the london stock exchange. 11 years ago he told the bbc he was no terrorist. i have been born and bred in england, in stoke—on—trent, in cobridge, and all the community knows me, and they will know, if you ask them, they will know, like, these labels they are putting on me, like "terrorist", this, that, they will know i am no terrorist. his lawyer insisted his client had tried to access de—radicalisation while in prison but had not got the right kind of help. he requested assistance with addressing some of his flawed thinking. he recognised that his extreme violent ideology was wrong. he wanted

to correct himself, he wanted to move on. since its release, usman khan had been helped byjack merritt‘s prisoner education scheme, learning together, who had organised a computer for him, which because of the conditions of his release did not have an internet connection. a police forensic tent marks the place where usman khan was shot dead by police. but the building where he carried out his attack is just on this side of the bridge. that was where he was attending a conference on prisoner rehabilitation, a conference at which he turned on some of those who had invited him and killed them. this picture was taken just before the attack at the conference in fishmongers‘ hall where usman khan also stabbed a woman to death. he seriously injured three other people. all are now stable. the attacker then left the building, he ended up on london bridge.

he was pursued and detained by members of the public, as well as a british transport police officer who was in plain clothes, before armed officers from both the city and metropolitan police arrived, confronted the attacker and shot him. the actions of the police and the public are all the more remarkable as we now know the attacker was wearing what looked like a very convincing explosive device. thankfully, we now know that was a hoax device. today, this address in stafford where usman khan had recently been living was being intensely searched. detectives say at this stage there is no evidence to suggest anyone else was involved in the attack. move that way. clear, please. which leaves the burning question, how was a convicted terrorist released from jail while still dangerous? and how did he, still wearing a tag, kill two people at a meeting focused on the rehabilitation of prisoners? daniel sandford, bbc news, london bridge. it's been confirmed that the licence conditions of every

convicted terrorist released from prison in england and wales are to be reviewed, following the latest london bridge attack. here's our political correspondentjessica parker. hello, how are you doing? visiting the scene earlier, the prime minister, alongside the met police chief, cressida dick, as people try to take in what has happened and understand what lessons can be learned. from borisjohnson, a call for tougher sentencing. i have said for a long time now that i think that the practice of automatic early release, where you cut a sentence in half and let really serious violent offenders out early, simply isn't working and i think you have had some very good evidence of how that isn't working, i am afraid, with this case. the mayor of london, sadiq khan, has said that while criminality cannot be excused, he believed police cuts under the conservative and coalition governments have had consequences. and the labour leader warned of understaffing in prisons as he called for a full investigation into usman

khan's case. clearly, there has been a complete disaster in that lives have been lost because of his behaviour and i think there is also a question about what the probation service were doing, were they involved at all and whether the parole board should have been involved in deciding whether or not he should have been allowed to be released from prison in the first place. but overall, general election campaigning has been more muted today with the focus on the families affected and tributes to those who rushed to the scene. our emergency services, as always, rise to the challenge, so you know, we need to make sure there is a robust response to incidents like this, that any lessons that need to be learned are learned, but at the moment i think everybody‘s thoughts are with everybody who has been affected. there are clearly questions that need to be asked and answers found as to how this happened and the process for that is very important. i think today,

that the focus is on those who are mourning. during the 2017 general election campaign there were two terror attacks, at manchester arena and another at london bridge. it can lead to a greater political focus on security issues, parties‘ records and their future plans for keeping people safe. but for some, at this stage, those conversations may be for another day. jessica parker, bbc news. let's bring you an update on a loud bang that has been heard across north london and the home counties to the north of london. the metropolitan police have tweeted "we are aware of reports of a loud bang in the north london area. the metropolitan police have now reported that it was caused by a sonic boom from raf planes. there is no cause for concern. a wealthy maltese businessman has been charged with complicity

in the 2017 murder of the journalist daphne ca ruana galizia. yorgen fenech was arrested last week as he attempted to leave malta on his yacht. he has pleaded not guilty to the charges. damian grammaticas is on the island and sent this report. under police guard, malta's richest man arrived to be charged with complicity to murder. the courthouse was open especially for this late—night hearing. the assassinated journalist's family were here too. they've waited two years for police to find those behind her killing. daphne caruana galizia worked to expose corruption. she was blown up by a car bomb. the hunt for those responsible has plunged malta into crisis. this was yorgen fenech emerging from an earlier court hearing, to shouts of "mafia!" so you ordered her assassination? no, i didn't not say that. i am confident the truth will come out. today he left, heading for a police cell. he denied involvement in the murder and his lawyers have said in court,

the police should be probing the prime minister's chief of staff, keith schembri, who resigned this week and was questioned by police but released. daphne ca ruana galizia's family have long fought to bring her killers tojustice. they say her work exposed shady dealing among many around the prime minister and he has to go. we now expect the prime minister to leave office and parliament with immediate effect, to allow a free and full investigation into his and keith schembri's role in the assassination of daphne. but the prime minister, joseph muscat, is refusing to budge. this was him on friday. i want this case to close under my watch.

i think the authorities have already delivered what many thought could not be delivered, that is major breakthroughs in the investigation. myjob is to see this investigation concluded. the criticism ofjoseph muscat is that he has overseen the murder investigation for the last two years. he and his chief of staff were privy to some of the secret information it unearthed. but that information may have leaked to suspects the police were looking into. at the same time, mr muscat, his critics say, has done little to clean up corruption at the highest levels. let's get some of the day's other news. dutch police have arrested a 35—year—old man in connection with a stabbing in the hague on friday. two 15—year—old girls and a 13—year—old boy who were injured in the attack have since been released from hospital. local media are reporting that the none of the victims knew each other and police say it's too early to indicate any motive. clashes have continued between anti—government protesters and security forces in the iraqi capital,

baghdad, following the prime minister's announcement that he intends to resign. adel abdul mahdi said he'd step down after dozens of demonstrators were killed in various cities, including najaf and nassariya. tens of thousands of italians have ta ken to the streets of florence and naples to protest against the far—right league party, and its leader matteo salvini. the crowds sang anti—fascist songs in these latest demonstrations staged by the new political movement known as the sardines. it was founded two weeks ago in bologna to oppose the league ahead of regional elections. hundreds of climate campaigners in eastern germany have occupied several opencast coal mines to demand their closure. the protesters have rejected the government's plan to phase out coal mining by 2038,and instead want the industry be closed down immediately. gareth barlow has more. activists pour in where the coal pours out. dressed in white overalls and wearing masks, the protesters occupied several mines across the states of saxony and brandenburg. they say the german government's pledged to phase out coal by 2038

is not enough. translation: we're here, activists for the climate, sitting here in front of the inaction of our government. this is for the climate, for a future with renewable energies. saturday's protests aren't the first such demonstrations. in june, hundreds of activists blocked a mine near cologne for several days. seven of the top 10 carbon emitters in the eu are german coal—fired power stations. the sector provides thousands of jobs and a small pro—coal rally sought to highlight the fossil fuel‘s importance. but activists say greater action is needed to protect the environment. an extraction of millions of tons of coal must stop immediately. stay with us on bbc news, still to come: a positive

opposite number from dover. this is bbc world news, the latest headlines: the british government has launched an urgent review of convicted terrorists released from prison, following the london bridge knife attack. a prominent maltese businessman has been charged with complicity in the murder of the investigative journalist, daphne caruana galizia. a new law comes into force in china this weekend that will force mobile phone users to submit to facial recognition software in order to access the internet. the scan will ensure that they match the photograph on their national identity card. the government in beijing says it will help ‘protect the legitimate rights of citizens in cyberspace'.

well, a little earlier i spoke to evan greer who's deputy director of fight for the future, a nonprofit organisation that works to protect people's basic rights in the digital age. i asked evan why facial recognition technology was — from an activist‘s point of view — a bad idea. it is a uniquely dangerous form of surveillance, it's essentially like wearing your fingerprint on yourface and at it's worse it allows governments to track and monitor an entire population which isn't particularly useful for public safety but very useful for authoritarian control and controlling our behaviour. evan, isn't there a difference between the use of facial recognition in an authoritarian state with the potential use in democracies which have checks and balances and independent court systems? i think it's very convenient and tempting for those of us in the west to point our finger

over there and say, look what they're doing in china, but the reality is that we are seeing dangerous and authoritarian uses of data recognition and biometric surveillance spreading very quickly in the united states and united kingdom, quite a bit of controversy about police in wales using this as well as private uses like the king's cross development, so there are ways that it's spreading in the west as well and it's being marketed as a form of convenience which i think is also very dangerous. we're getting used to getting our faces scanned for all sorts of purposes and is very quick to go from getting your faces scanned to getting on an aeroplane to the more authoritarian or tyranical ways which the technology can be used to trample a basic rights of the liberties. hypothetically, if a city is attacked by gunmen and the gunmen get away and are on the loose, shouldn't the government be able to use all technology including

facial recognition to try to track down those gunmen? so here's the thing. we've seen over the last more than a decade that mass data collection, mass surveillance, the type of surveillance that allows governments to track large numbers of people all at the same time, that type of surveillance doesn't actually work to prevent the types of attacks that we're talking about and want to prevent. this technology isn't actually making people safer, it's not about safety, it's about control and i think that's what we have to recognise which is that there are reasons democracies have checks and balances, there are reasons we require things like warrants and without that type of limitation, law enforcement can really enter into where it's not about keeping people safe or preventing crime but about controlling our behaviour, about keeping us in line rather than keeping us safe. and there is really no

evidence to suggest facial recognition or any other type of mass surveillance programme has prevented one of these attacks. in a couple of sentences, in your country, what measures specifically do you want to see taken? my organisation and dozens of other groups from across the political spectrum are calling for an outright ban on law enforcement and government use of facial recognition surveillance and we also think there should be strict limits in place on private and corporate use of this technology because in the end, corporate and government surveillance work hand—in—hand, whether a company is harvesting your data for profit or a government is using it to track you down to target you and your family, it's an invasion of your privacy and rights and it's something we should all be standing up again. the australian state of new south wales has rolled out mobile phone detection cameras in a bid to cut the number of fatalities on the roads by a third over two years. the world—first mobile phone detection cameras

operate day and night in all weather conditions to determine if a driver is handling a mobile phone. the former wales rugby captain, gareth thomas, has told prince harry that he hopes his lasting legacy will be breaking the stigma surrounding hiv. the two men feature in a video released by the terrence higgins trust and national aids trust to mark world aids day. the duke praised thomas for revealing in september that he was hiv positive. you've got a new purpose in life and you've turned a negative into a positive. yeah. and i tell you what i feel like — and this is the truth, mate — i always felt that my life was to play rugby and to represent wales — which i did with all the passion i have, right? but i actually feel that my rugby gave me the platform to actually do what i'm doing now. and i believe what i do now — like, what i do now is really what i care about.

because there's not many, like, people from a simple life that i've come from who can have the power to change other people's lives. i mean, that's, like... it's one of the most fulfilling things. it blows me away. but i sit down with my parents sometimes and we look at my trophy cabinet, which i'm really proud of. it's big! mate, yeah, it's big! it's big! um, but i look at it and i think "do you know what? they'll gather dust. and they will go away and they'll be forgotten about. " but i'd like to think where we are going on thisjourney of education and breaking stigma around hiv, it's something i will have a legacy ever—lasting, like. there's a 2030 goal, right? yeah. and you've nowjust signed up as a commissioner. yes! i'm going to be on a commission and sit on a panel with a group of people, who has — we have a common goal — that in ten years' time, within england, there'll be zero new transmissions of hiv. now, this whole thing might be bizarre, anyway — like, we're sitting in a rugby ground, me and you, having a chat

about hiv, talking about zero transmissions of hiv in ten years' time. like, i can't believe that we're at a point where that's a reality. but it is. it is a reality. and it's something that, for me, it's my next step. we know there's a hell of a lot to do but what you've managed to do in just the space of, you know, six or eight weeks has been transformational — genuinely transformational. as you said, we should all know our own status. yeah. and if it's treated just the same as any other virus, and that's exactly what should be happening. yeah. from my perspective, all i can do is thank you for the difference that you've made, the lives that you're saving on a daily basis now, and you have every single one of us backing you the whole way. you're not in this alone. you now know that. i know it, yeah. you put the trust in the british public and quite rightly,

you know, they support you, all the way. for decades, lyons teashops were famous in britain for providing tea and cakes to the masses. but lyons was also the first company to use computers in a commercial office setting. leo or the lyons electric office was launched in 1951 and was the first business computer in the world. our colleagues at witness history have been speaking to mary coombs who the first woman to work as a programmer on leo. newsreel: electronic computers are not new, but leo was the first designed for office work. leo is fast and flexible. the first automatic office in the world. leo stands for lyons electronic office. it took the idea of an ordinary mechanical calculating machine and decided to turn it into electronics. when we started, we were about five years ahead of any other firm. we were all pioneers in programming.

itjust happens i was the first woman who was involved in commercial programming. lyons manufactured a lot of bakery goods, they had hotels, they had tea shops, they had restaurants. they were always very go—ahead in introducing new systems that would make for greater efficiency. i got involved with payroll straight away. newsreel: the programme is fed first, laying down the sequence for the multiplicity of calculations leo will perform. next, the standing orders and the telephone revisions, tea shop by tea shop, are fed in, with the overriding variations on the paper tape.

the computer itself was on a raised platform, because under the racks, there were the mercury delay lines. there was a lot of air—conditioning. it would take months to write a programme. you couldn't do it quickly. newsreel: immediately, packing notes begin to print, ten shops at a time. at the same time, charges to tea shops and sales statistics are being recorded. the results came out on teleprinter tape and then had to be printed. a modern computer has a huge store of umpteen gigabytes. leo i was 2k. we all got on well. there were quite a lot of marriages — including mine! and we had quite a lot of social time because of working such long hours. we would lunch together or we'd go out in the evening together. very exciting atmosphere, yes.

leo i was used for quite a lot of scientific work. we did the tax tables for the inland revenue one year, we did some work for the met office, we did some ballistics work for the army. the longer we went on, the more likely it was that some of our staff would leave and join otherfirms. american companies, of course, were quite big in the uk as well — people like ibm — but obviously, they all caught up. working in the ‘50s, i don't think you would have dreamt of anything like what has happened. i mean, it's so much a part of everyday life now, isn't it? it's quite interesting to be able to google your name on the computer! i definitely feel proud of being involved. oh, yes. it's made life much more interesting.

two more of all of our stories on our website. i am on twitter. please stay with bbc news. hello there. good morning. signs of change towards the end of the coming week. but new month, same old cold air across the uk. we're dominated by this cold area of high pressure. the last of the mild air that was towards the south—west and the channel islands, together with that weather front which brought some pockets of light rain, that's moving away now, getting blown away by the breeze. head further north, though, there are still some patches of fog through the midlands, east wales,

maybe the vale of york, around the solway firth, and into the central belt of scotland. a few showers around the coasts of northern ireland and the far north of scotland, but generally the northern half of the uk starting cold and frosty widely. there's more patchy frost further south where we've got that breeze. and that will tend to lift the mist and fog through the midlands and wales much more quickly. further north, a few patches may linger until the middle part of the day, at least. but generally it becomes dry and sunny. got a few showers on that keener breeze across the north of scotland, down those north sea coasts, and particularly later into kent. these are the temperatures for the first day of december. similar to what we had on saturday. not quite as chilly as it was, though, perhaps, through the midlands with more sunshine here as there will be in the south—west of england where it's going to be dry. high pressure, cold air continues overnight as we head into monday. but signs of change into the north—west. our air beginning to come in from the atlantic. a patchy frost for scotland and northern ireland on monday morning it won't be as cold, with the frost more widely for england and wales. after a starry night, we're going to have plenty of sunshine

on monday and lighter winds. south—westerly breezes blow a bit more cloud into northern ireland and particularly into scotland, where we'll see some pockets of rain, especially in the north of the country, where temperatures may actually get into double figures. for many, temperatures are going to be at sixes and sevens. we've got high pressure dominating then at the moment. gradually, as we head into tuesday and wednesday, it slips away into continental europe, getting eroded by these milder atlantic winds. with higher pressure close to southern parts of england where the winds are lighter, skies clear, we've got to maybe worry about some mist, fog, and low cloud in the morning. that could linger, actually, until around about lunchtime before tending to lift and break up. it should be a dry day on tuesday, even across the north of scotland. some sunshine for northern ireland. and those temperatures typically at sixes and sevens once again. another chilly sort of day, i think, on wednesday. gradually, later on in the week, it turns milder, it turns windier, 00:28:42,803 --> 357913842:22:26,688 and 357913842:22:26,688 --> 715827684:16:10,574 we'll 715827684:16:10,574 --> 1073741526:09:54,460 see 1073741526:09:54,460 --> 1431655368:03:38,346 some 1431655368:03:38,346 --> 1789569209:57:22,231 patchy 1789569209:57:22,231 --> 2147483051:51:06,117 rain, 2147483051:51:06,116 --> 2505396893:44:50,002 mainly 2505396893:44:50,002 --> 2863310735:38:33,887 in 2863310735:38:33,887 --> 3221224577:32:17,771 the 3221224577:32:17,771 --> 3579138419:26:01,656 north 3579138419:26:01,656 --> 3937052261:19:45,541 and 3937052261:19:45,541 --> 4294966103:13:29,426 west.
