in 2020. that police murdered in 2020. that police station in croydon. the man who did it was louis de zoysa and we can see some pictures now of that night. this is louis de zoysa being arrested earlier in the evening. at this point he was carrying a gun, but the police arresting him did not know it and did not find it. a little later he was taken into custody sell there and that is the moment where he took out the gun and fired it twice at matiu ratana. this gun was over 100 years old and the ammunition was home—made and he had that first shot at matiu ratana which was the fatal one. and he also then fired again for shots in total in the third one hitting his own neck and that has resulted in

serious injuries to him. he uses a wheelchair now and has difficulty communicating and that was evident during his trial. and if we see some pictures now of matiu louis de zoysa. he was found guilty of murder at the trial last month and the trial lasted... there were some significant changes that took place after that. significant changes that took place afterthat. in significant changes that took place after that. in the immediate aftermath of the incident itself, essentially there was a metal detectors that police can potentially use to search people quickly and find things like a potentially guns. and that could potentially guns. and that could potentially have made a difference in this case and that will not be known. that was a sequence of events

backin known. that was a sequence of events back in 2020 and the conclusion now is that whole life sentence for louis de zoysa, but whole life term and he will spend the rest of his life in prison for the murder of sergeant matiu ratana. my my colleague has just come out cycle in the last few seconds. that decision there from the judge, a whole life order. just talk us through it. whole life order. just talk us through it— whole life order. just talk us throuh it. . . , whole life order. just talk us throu~hit. . . through it. matiu ratana's panelwas sittin: in through it. matiu ratana's panelwas sitting in court _ through it. matiu ratana's panelwas sitting in court and _ through it. matiu ratana's panelwas sitting in court and listening - sitting in court and listening incredibly intently to the remarks and watched every word he said then as he passed that sentence saying that louis de zoysa would in effect never, ever step outside the prison gates again, shejust never, ever step outside the prison

gates again, she just quietly had a tear trickled down her cheek and incredibly important moment for her to recognise what louis de zoysa did. matt wouldn't recognise that the sentencing them matt and judge looked at him almost throughoutjust looking down occasionally to read his nights. louis de zoysa never really engage thejudges his nights. louis de zoysa never really engage the judges ijust looked down in the dock and sitting in his wheelchair and when the judge said she should be taken out there was still no reaction from louis de zoysa and he was just wheeled out at the side door of the dock throughout these proceedings. he was kept in a conference room in the main part of the court in the core of the public and wheeled into court pastels every day but at the end of proceedings today he was wheeled out of another door because of course now he's not going to be going to hospital. he

will, if not tonight, then certainly fairly soon be going off to prison. he is a man serving the worst, the most stringent life sentence that can be passed in the country and thatis can be passed in the country and that is a whole life order. daniel, can ou that is a whole life order. daniel, can you just _ that is a whole life order. daniel, can you just remind _ that is a whole life order. daniel, can you just remind us _ that is a whole life order. daniel, can you just remind us of- that is a whole life order. daniel, can you just remind us of the - can you just remind us of the original incident what happened to him. ., , , original incident what happened to him. ., ,, original incident what happened to him. ., , , ., him. louis de zoysa was a 23-year-old _ him. louis de zoysa was a 23-year-old man - him. louis de zoysa was a 23-year-old man at - him. louis de zoysa was a 23-year-old man at the i him. louis de zoysa was a i 23-year-old man at the time him. louis de zoysa was a - 23-year-old man at the time and he 23—year—old man at the time and he has a fascination with firearms and had been autistic in his teenage years but did very well in school and developed a fascination for firearms. the court heard he was bullied at school and beaten by his father but are done reasonably well. dropped out of university and had a job at the tax office in croydon and a regular girlfriend and a flat he was living in on a farm in banstead in salvage on the edges of london and their own on the pandemic he

effectively heard developed a firearms workshop manufacturing bullets and various kinds of weaponry and acquired an old rifle and then managed to acquire an old handgun, 1890 handgun which had a kind of bullet that it fired and said it was legal at that time to owning old antique firearm and made the bullets for the gun and whatever reason in the very early hours of the 25th of september 2020 about six months into the pandemic he was wandering around the streets of south london quite close to his parent's home when he was stopped by two police officers were worried because they had been reports of a spate of burglaries in the area and carrying a brown overall which looked like it might be the sort of thing a burglar might be carrying with them and they stopped him and said he wanted to search him and

quite quickly confesses he has some cannabis on him but doesn't mention the 1898 colt revolver he is carrying in a holster under his arm and under his jacket and the police search him and they find the ammunition and when you watch the video of that search they come in tantalisingly close during that search to finding the gun that he's got hidden but they don't find him, find the gun. they worried about the gun and handcuffed him behind his back and talking to the police station but unfortunately they have not seen the 18 98 revolver in his arm and while he was taken to the custody street they actually see him moving in such a way managed to take the gun out from under his jacket into his hands and then hide it under his jacket and his hands and at sea is taking turns holding centre at the croydon custody centre

by then he clearly has a gun in his hands behind his back and when he is about to be set with the metal detector ordered by the sergeant in charge of the custody centre, matiu ratana, he reaches from behind his back still handcuffed and manages to fire incredibly accurate shot directly to matiu ratana's heart and that's why the judges said that there was a degree of premeditation because while he was being taken to the police station he's had a chance to plot, to move the gun into his hands and to decide he's going to do and then at this moment in a holding cell in the police station he carried out what is effectively a short term but planned action to shoot a police officer directly in the chest and in fact directly in the chest and in fact directly in the heart and for that region the judge decided it was no reason to depart from the starting point, if you shoot a police officer in the course of his duty will never come out of prison. it's a whole life

order which means there will be no prospect of any kind of parole. the judge did consider things like his autism, his young age, the effect it would have on his family and the effect being jailed for whole life while in a wheelchair with brain damage would have on him but he decided that none of those really outweigh the fact that he was carrying a gun that night and he deliberately planned to shoot that police officer while he was sitting on the back of the van and then he carried out that plan. flan on the back of the van and then he carried out that plan.— carried out that plan. can you 'ust talk us through i carried out that plan. can you 'ust talk us through some i carried out that plan. can you 'ust talk us through some of i carried out that plan. can you 'ust talk us through some of the h carried out that plan. can you just. talk us through some of the phases and phraseology used by the judge that was slightly technical bear. difference between setting a minimum term order and a whole life order when he was talking us through that, aggravating factors and mitigating factors. could you just translate that for us?

factors. could you 'ust translate that for ugh factors. could you 'ust translate that for hath that for us? under the law in entland that for us? under the law in england and _ that for us? under the law in england and wales _ that for us? under the law in england and wales if - that for us? under the law in england and wales if you - that for us? under the law in - england and wales if you commit murder you go to prison for life but it doesn't always mean you'll stay in prison for life. you can be released what is called unlicensed which means if your behaviour is good enough the parole board, can you attach a number of years and then you can if perhaps in home or unofficial accommodation outside prison and becoming dangerous again. you can have a life sentence with a minimum term from ten years or even less time is up to a0 or 50 years before the parole boyd would consider you for release on licence so that would be the minimum term scenario thejudge so that would be the minimum term scenario the judge considered and rejected and the other scenario is this whole life scenario and it is matter what you do in prison and how well—behaved you are you will never, ever ever, lee prison. you will

actually remain behind bars for the cli so that it was a whole life or the means and what the judges opted for in this case. aggravating and mitigating factors are things the judge will consider as to whether they are deciding on a starting point for sentence and whether to move it up or down and might have a scenario where someone is sentenced to life for murder with a minimum term of 20 years in the judge said actually there are a few things that are worse and i will put up to 25 years and a few thing less bad for that down for 15 years. in this case we started with the whole life order as a starting point and considered the aggravating factor to as he was having a firearm and a degree of planning and then looks at mitigating factors to do with louis de zoysa's health and decided aggravating factors outweigh the mitigating factors so if anything he could have gone higher than the starting point and we can't go

higher than that in england and wales which is why louis de zoysa was given his whole life order which means he will go to prison and no matter how he behaves in prison will stay there until he dies.— stay there until he dies. couple of other stories _ stay there until he dies. couple of other stories been _ stay there until he dies. couple of other stories been developing - stay there until he dies. couple of other stories been developing in l stay there until he dies. couple of. other stories been developing in the last hour or so him in the uk. tram operators have been fined £a0 million over the croydon development claimed the lives of... passengers. this happened in the morning of november nine, 2016. transport for london transport operations limited have accepted failings in the health and safety duties. police say the

mentioned earlier but talking specifically about the heatwave here in the uk that happened last year. they are now saying there was a sign of things to come. a record—breaking heatin of things to come. a record—breaking heat in 2022 will be regarded as a cruel year by the end of the century, the met office says. its report shows that last year was extraordinary but a heatwave pushing the uk record over a0 celsius the first time. it added hot years like 2022 will be the average by 2060. that is if carbon emissions continue as expected. british gas has reported record half—year profits of £969 million — that's around $1.2 billion — after rule changes allowed it to make more money from household bills. about half of the profit was due to the changes made by the energy regulator. 0fgem had raised the allowance suppliers can claim from household

bills to make up for costs incurred during the pandemic. thisjump in profits came despite falls in oil and gas prices which affected other energy firms. fossil fuel giant shell has said profits have fallen to $5 billion dollars — that's around 3.9 billion pounds , in the second three months of the year as oil and gas prices fall. energy firms had been making record profits after russia's invasion of ukraine pushed up oil and gas prices. but wholesale prices have been falling from post—invasion peaks. the firm said it had also been selling less fuel and making lower profits on refining. with me is the bbc�*s business reporter tadhg enright. with me — the bbc�*s business reporter tadhg enright. most of the catlike shell profits going to be compared to mean that last yearfor going to be compared to mean that last year for the things... $5 billion injust one last year for the things... $5 billion in just one quarter of the year and still a massive amount on a sharp drop in last year and prices were very inflated in the immediate aftermath of the invasion of ukraine and actually in—line same period in 2021 and in many ways there

returning to business as usual. alarm bells ringing in catlike shell he skew and its recently installed ceo in june he skew and its recently installed ceo injune of this year and has a plan to boost profits and that involved keeping oil output study, boosting natural gas production but slowing investment in renewable energy which it says right now as being less profitable and indeed it is recent weeks it has been reported although not confirmed by shell that it is planning to spin off as renewable energy division or attract renewable energy division or attract renewable investors into its at a time of falling profits it means it is less likely to invest in renewables and of course that's enough and potential spin off not exactly a vote of confidence by shell. all of that on the front pages around the world, us and canada,

actually forces companies to change their ways and in living as you can see at their own pace. when the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. bbc news panini difference choice and across the uk. spent the last year hosting ukrainian families. today, she spoke to natalie who has since returned to kyiv with her son. how are things at the moment? it is kyiv with her son. how are things at the moment?— the moment? it is predictable here in ukraine in _ the moment? it is predictable here in ukraine in kyiv _ the moment? it is predictable here in ukraine in kyiv so _ the moment? it is predictable here in ukraine in kyiv so you _ the moment? it is predictable here in ukraine in kyiv so you never- the moment? it is predictable herel in ukraine in kyiv so you never know what _ in ukraine in kyiv so you never know what will _ in ukraine in kyiv so you never know what will happen. its if in ukraine in kyiv so you never know what will happen.— what will happen. as if to prove it, here's what _ what will happen. as if to prove it, here's what happened _ what will happen. as if to prove it, here's what happened within - what will happen. as if to prove it, i here's what happened within minutes of the cat magazine called ending. simon's warning of shelling in steve again —— within minutes of the zoom call ending, sirens warning of shelling in to again. warnings are needed and _ shelling in to again. warnings are needed and that _ shelling in to again. warnings are needed and that is _ shelling in to again. warnings are needed and that is very _ shelling in to again. warnings are needed and that is very much - shelling in to again. warnings are - needed and that is very much changed and also that is down to the cost—of—living crisis. the war
