we're going live to a scene over whitehall in central london.again this afternoon, anger has been mounting over the g re nfell anger has been mounting over the grenfell fire response from the government and in particular, directed at may, government and in particular, directed at- may, coming directed at theresa may, coming under increasing pressure over her handling of the disaster. we understand that at the moment within downing street itself she is meeting - several victims and of that fire. the protests survivors of that fire. the protests have been - place. friday we have been taking place. friday we saw some. there had been talk of further protests continuing today. it's over the government's response to the tragedy. as it stands at least 30 people are officially named as being killed in that fire. the bbc believes that number could actually be as high as 70. kensington town hall was the scene protests on friday. some people of protests on friday. some people also marching - downing street, also marching onto downing street, again in centr

the headlines at 11pm: protests in west and central london as emotions run high following the grenfell tower inferno. there are growing calls for answers as to why the building went up in flames so quickly. the prime minister already criticised for her response to the tragedy announces a £5 million fund to help the victims. what we need to do is to ensure that immediately people have the support that they need in order to deal with what is an horrific and terrible circumstance that people are in. and 30 people are confirmed to have died in the fire, but police say that number is likely to rise. the bbc understands more than 70 are dead or missing. on newsnight i ask the prime minister if she has misjudged the public mood of the grenfell tower disaster. good evening and welcome to bbc news. angry protests have been taking place in london as residents demand support for those affected by the grenfell tower fire. people have stormed kensington and chelsea town hall, and gathered to protest outside the bbc. earlier the prime minister theresa may made her first visit to the area to meet sur

events over the weekend and the massive police operation after saturday night's terror attack in central london. the investigation is well under way. in the last few hours police have raided two more properties in east london as they investigate the attack which killed seven people and injured 48 people. it has prodded questions over how the police are funded and if they have the resources they need. jeremy corbyn accused the conservatives of trying to "protect the public on the cheap". they accused him of "desperate promises and evasive soundbites". so let's look at the numbers. the total police budget for england and wales stands at about £14.34 billion. because it's a devolved issue in scotland and northern ireland the funding is separate. on top of that there are extra grants including about $725 million specifically for counter—terrorism. the uk election is just three days away and the labour opposition is pledging about £386 million for an extra 10,000 officers. the governing conservatives haven't given costings but say that a new "infrastructure police force" will help in counter—terror

we'll let hotties notice miss me in central london thank you. well earlier we spoke with angus macneil scottish national party m.p. and he believes the tenants of the destroyed building are receiving enough support from the also. going as one of the world's richest cities and kensington and chelsea the royal but it is one of the room where the wealthiest parts of london. so selfish and their economic outlook. for themselves and a lack of social care for the. people are living off of community conditions after losing their homes through tears to be negligence on penny pinching. refurbishing the. flood book the flood book of course seems would have been refurbished to give it another visual impression to the richer residents nearby so it really looks appalling as you can review kids going through quite a number of years of. you know we have the. base of everything but obsolete the value of nothing victim to get any photo or are not good enough for the prime minister still talking about the money has been pledged all the money should be started giv

hundreds of demonstrators marched past downing street and into central london.hority was weakened by the general election. now she is facing another defining test, and it has come far sooner than theresa may ever could have imagined. expect more of this. demonstrations, disruption. this tragedy has become a cause, and another reason for the government's enemies to turn up the volume. this is bbc news. the latest headlines: a us navy destroyer has collided with a container ship off the east coast of japan. at least 7 us sailors are missing. protests in west and central london as anger increases following the grenfell tower fire. there are growing calls for answers as to why it became engulfed so quickly. so as we've heard theresa may has pledged to re—house all those who've lost their homes in the grenfell fire within three weeks. but how realistic is that? kensington & chelsea is one of the richest boroughs in britain but it still has a substantial housing waiting list and among the highest rates of people living in temporary accommodation in london. clive myrie

there were also demonstrations in central london. ourfirst report is from jeremy cooke.: we want justice! the target is the council office, the council which owns the tower. the crowd demands answers. we need to be heard! we all have things to say! we are in pain! i understand that the response we get from the council is not satisfactory. they want to hear from the local authority officials who they hold responsible. justice! how could this tragedy have happened on this scale in this city in 2017? the whole procedure is chaos. we are sent from hospital to hospital, to shelters. why is there not a community house for family members? why? why do we have to go out there and look actively for them, and then be told misled information? we live in a modern world, why is this carried on like this? it does not make sense?! but today, again, in the shadow of grenfell tower, a different kind of response. sorry! it is an overwhelming community tragedy with an overwhelming community response. if we get all the missing people on the same window... a continuing grassroots mobilisation

it is a hugely popular part of central london, a popular destination for people on a saturday night.ggest train stations with several pubs and restau ra nts stations with several pubs and restaurants in the area. we know just after ten o'clock, we began to get reports of eyewitnesses saying a white van, hitting pedestrians on london bridge. eyewitnesses have reported seeing several people injured on the pavement. we know london ambulance service have said they have deployed a number of ambulances to the area. metropolitan police have said multiple resources are attending a serious incident, and stressing for people to avoid the area at the moment. clearly this is all still unfolding. emergency services at the scene establishing what happened and asking people to stay away. metropolitan police's twitter feed here. 0ur information on bbc news needs to be accurate. we will deal with what we know and nothing more. you can see the london ambulance service resilience team is confirming what greg said, that they have sent multiple resources to the incident and is asking everyone to avoid th

we are continuing with coverage all day here, seven people killed overnight in central london in thatwe will talk to an eyewitness in just a bridge. we will talk to an eyewitness injust a moment. you are watching bbc news. as we have been talking about those hurt overnight, 48 injured, seven people known to have died in that attack. and a very strong statement from the prime minister. let's take a few minutes to reflect on everything that went on here in this london bridge area, late on a saturday night, in warm saturday evening in the capital. even if you don't know london, you would have the sense on such a beautiful evening as that but a huge number of people would have been out and about, trying to enjoy themselves on what should have beenjust about, trying to enjoy themselves on what should have been just a about, trying to enjoy themselves on what should have beenjust a red or saturday evening. richard angell has joined me here at the shard —— a beautiful saturday evening. richard, explain where you were last night, saturday night, what you were doing and what you saw? why was a

state of the terror alert it was critical, even so, many more armed police on the streets of central londonfirst officers arrived here at the scene. the nearest officers would have been the british transport police over the road at london bridge. they have armed officers. i think it is likely to have been armed officers on the station at the time. it is clearly a potential terrorist target. we don't know when they are right. we spoke to one eyewitness who doesn't tell me he saw police officers. we are yet to work out the timing of when shots may have been fired so that is a big question we would like to know, what sort of response that was. they are ready and i was briefed along with a number of other journalists about the preparations of the police. what does the metropolitan police but all around the country. the civil nuclear constabulary have armed officers that can be used and a much higher level of training, far more serious weaponry, capable of holding an area in a sustained gunfight with terrorist. not something that happened in this case but something they are trained for. interest

simply the nature of that description, vehicle and pedestrian, it is what was experienced at central londonlondon bridge, experienced near the house of parliament back in march. both of those incidents involved and caused the deaths of a number of people. so there is perhaps concern of a pattern developing here, vehicle into pedestrian attacks, something encourage willed by terror groups abroad. these attacks have taken place in other european countries and cities, and because we've seen a number of them here so recently, of course. obviously concern. we have some stress at this stage. people have not said that this is what this is. they simply scribbled it as an incident. they have said that there are casualties, they have said someone is in custody and they're working to get to the bottom of precisely what happened here. >> and we're going to continue to monitor their twitter feed. they do tweet quite a bit when we've seen these incidents unfold, sadly as you mentioned, multiple times in the past few months. i want to bring in juliette cayyem who is joining us via skype. again, juliette,
