Thank you.

Welcome to BBC London this Monday evening.
3
Coming up, the universities of Greenwich and Kent have merged today, creating the UK's first super university.
4
Higher education is a national treasure.
5
It's something that we should be really protecting, but it doesn't seem like it's a government priority at all.
6
Could other London universities follow in an attempt to shore up their finances?
7
Also tonight.
8
The student who was jailed for life for drugging and raping women in London, more victims come forward after a police appeal.
9
Plus they protect us from pollution and extreme heat.
10
But how do we protect London trees as environmentalists say the summer has been devastating for them.
11
And the star attraction at London's British Museum.
12
Could barking help solve the mystery of who exactly embroidered it?
13
Hello and good evening to you.
14
Today sees the UK's first so-called super university, created by the merging of the universities of Greenwich and Kent.
15
Now called the London and South East University Group, it has more than 50,000 students across four campuses, making it the third largest in Britain.
16
It comes as the higher education sector has faced increasing financial pressures.
17
In a moment, we'll look at the wider picture here in the capital.
18
First, Leila Hayes has been getting reaction and what it means for students.
19
Two universities, Greenwich in London and the University of Kent.
20
Once separate institutions, but they've now merged to become the UK's first super university.
21
The universities will now have more than 50,000 students across four different campuses in London,
22
Medway and Kent and will become the third largest university in the UK.
23
The merger comes as universities are facing huge financial pressures
24
and the Vice-Chancellor of Greenwich says it will provide them with a strong future.
25
Well, I think if we'd both stayed on our own, we would have had to make some changes.
26
You know, like any university, we're not, none of us are immune.
27
By coming together, we're not immune, but we can make those changes and make ourselves much more resilient in the future.
28
We are not doing it for a financial reason, but it does give us that advantage to give ourselves.
29
I think for students that's important, because then they'll know that actually we've got the strength and we're resilient.
30
The University of Greenwich, a community with no limits.
31
The merger may help Greenwich and Kent, but the higher education regulator has warned 24 institutions are now at risk of insolvency,
32
and they think we'll see more mergers in the future.
33
This is the biggest we've seen recently, but there have been other examples.
34
King's College London and Cranfield University announced a merger recently
35
and City St George's is the product of a merger in recent years.
36
And I think it is part of a trend.
37
But the National Union of Students say what universities really need is more funding.
38
My key main concerns are what this signals to the country as a whole in the higher education sector.
39
It's sort of accepting that we should be allowing universities to merge or disappear.
40
And, you know, universities are a higher education...
41
Like, higher education is a national treasure.
42
It's something that we should be really protecting, but it doesn't seem like it's a government priority at all.
43
The government says it's taking action to put universities on a firmer financial footing.
44
But there seems little doubt that in the future there'll be more mergers, like the one between Greenwich and Kent.
45
Leila Hayes, BBC London.
46
OK, well, let's pick up on the bigger picture in the capital with our reporter Alpa Patel.
47
Hi there.
48
Do we think more universities are likely to join forces like this?
49
Well, we know that there's another one on the way.
50
King's College London is due to merge with Cranfield University in Bedfordshire in 2027.
51
Now, leaders there say this isn't about plugging a financial hole.
52
It's about bringing together King's research strength with Cranfield's expertise in areas like engineering and AI.
53
But there's no doubt that universities are facing a really, really tough time.
54
Tuition fees, for instance, were frozen for many, many years.
55
And universities say that the fees simply no longer cover the cost of teaching students.
56
At the same time, many institutions became increasingly reliant on international students who pay significantly higher fees.
57
Now, changes to visa rules have hit budgets hard.
58
And for some universities, they are now in a very, very difficult position.
59
And although student paces at the moment are stable,
60
understandably, some students, some prospective students are weighing up whether university is worth it given the amount of debt accrued
61
and given that some graduates are unable to find jobs.
62
For London, this really, really matters because universities are a major economic force, contributing tens of billions to the economy.
63
They also attract top-level talent from around the world, helping to train doctors, teachers, engineers of the future.
64
But when finances don't add up, the consequences are significant.
65
As we heard in Leila's report, some are already at risk of insolvency.
66
So supporters of mergers say they can create a stronger and more resilient institutions,
67
but the regulator is clear that mergers aren't a silver bullet and can't solve significant financial problems.
68
OK, Alper, many thanks for that.
69
Alper Patel there
70
you're watching bbc london plenty more to come before seven including
71
i'm in the kitchen of a nepalese restaurant in blackheath
72
which is getting ready for a fundraising dinner for the victims of the nepal flood disaster Next,
73
they act as the lungs of our planet, protecting cities from pollution and the effects of climate change.
74
However, environmental charities say this summer has been devastating for London's trees, with many being lost due to the stress of droughts and heatwaves.
75
Trees for Cities also thinks the problem will get much worse in the future.
76
So what is the answer and how will the capital's trees cope?
77
With more on that, here's our environment correspondent, Tom Edwards.
78
Drought and heatwaves and increased wildfires have taken their toll on the capital's trees.
79
This is the closest in West Drayton, a planting site for this charity.
80
It has been a huge effort to support the trees.
81
Many didn't survive.
82
I've never seen a summer like this.
83
Last summer was bad.
84
I think we had three heatwaves back to back, but this summer has been a different level.
85
It's just been relentless.
86
No rain for over 50 days.
87
And all of our sites, some sites have managed slightly better than others for various reasons, but every single site has struggled.
88
And our team has really been put under massive pressure because of that.
89
Trees are seen as part of the solution to a warming climate and how we keep cities cool.
90
The mayor's ambition is to increase the canopy.
91
Their response to the drought and to the extreme heat has been to start to drop leaves, which is really reminiscent of autumn.
92
But in fact, they're dropping them because they can't support them from a water point of view anymore.
93
At Chiswick House, it has also been a battle.
94
More trees will have their lives shortened and over time more trees will die, which sounds like a terribly depressing thing to say.
95
Research says three-quarters of London's trees will suffer in the future.
96
Work is being carried out now to find out which species will be more resilient.
97
Long term, the capital will need more involvement from volunteers and more funding for trees.
98
We're going to have hotter, drier summers.
99
We know that, we're experiencing that already.
100
But also warmer, wetter winters.
101
So the real challenge comes into selecting species
102
that are going to be able to withstand both of those changes and that's complex.
103
Those on the ground are really worried.
104
This is really the first summer where I've seen climate change on our doorstep and it's not going anywhere, which is very, very daunting and very scary for people,
105
you know, people's homes and communities and things like that like
106
that but it's going to keep on happening so we have to realize
107
that this is the new norm this is going to happen again next year
108
so we have to figure out what our infrastructure is going
109
to be like how do we engage with the public what
110
do the public need to do in their own private gardens
111
as well as you know in our community spaces like here with the trees we planted
112
so it's going to be a massive adjustment
113
but you know it's it's the kind of the only option
114
we have is to adjust for the future we're now going to be experiencing.
115
are on the front line in a changing climate.
116
Now they're under huge pressure.
117
Tom Edwards, BBC London.
118
A student who's serving a life sentence for drugging
119
and raping 10 women in London
120
and China could face further charges after more people have come forward following a Met police appeal.
121
Zhen Hao Zhou has been described as one of the UK's most prolific predators.
122
Our reporter Anna O'Neill joins me.
123
Anna, how many people are we talking about?
124
Well, 23 women came forward after that met police appeal, but police think there could be many more victims.
125
Zoe was convicted last year of 11 counts of drugging and raping 10 women.
126
Seven of the rapes he was convicted of happened in China at around the time of the pandemic 2019.
127
Four of the convictions for rape happened here in London, where he was a PhD student at University College London.
128
and he was convicted in London for the crimes that he committed both over there in China and here in the capital.
129
Now he'd filmed his victims being assaulted and whether well they were either unconscious
130
or semi-conscious and he collected trophies from them and
131
that meant the police used this as evidence against him
132
but it also meant that they think that there are many more women
133
that may have been drugged and raped by him possibly as many as 50 or 60 maybe even more.
134
So what happens next with the new evidence of those who have come forward?
135
Well, the Met Police has sent a file containing the new allegations of those sexual crimes to the Crime Crown Prosecution Service.
136
And according to police, that file contains evidence relating to several alleged offences, including rape and administering a substance with intent to commit a sexual offence.
137
And the CPS will now look at those and decide whether to bring further charges.
138
OK, with an update there.
139
Thank you very much.
140
Anna O'Neill.
141
A brief look now at some of the day's other stories.
142
A man has been charged with arson after trains to
143
and from Heathrow Airport were halted because of a trackside grass fire near Paddington.
144
National Rail said there was major disruption to services following the incident which happened on Saturday afternoon.
145
Air conditioning will be fitted in some London buses in what
146
the Unite Union describe as a groundbreaking victory for drivers for Arriva London North.
147
They took industrial action last month over hot weather working conditions.
148
Arriva and Transport for London have confirmed the air conditioning will be fitted by May next year.
149
Now over the summer there was a row over something called vertical drinking, basically a term for standing up drinking which we see a lot of in London.
150
After some confusion over the terminology and some thinking it was being banned in the West End,
151
which it's not, Westminster City Council has published its revised licensing policy, which they hope clears it all up.
152
Our political correspondent Susanna Mendonca has the story.
153
Standing up while you sip a pint.
154
It's a familiar scene in London's West End.
155
But why do some people love it so much?
156
I prefer being outside, always.
157
We were walking around and she was like, should we have a drink here or sit down here? and they're all indoor places.
158
And if it's a nice day and we could be outside, why not?
159
It's what you come up solo for, standing outside, people watching, get the vibe.
160
This is one of the reasons I come to this pub is to stand outside in the sunshine
161
and watch people go by and just immerse myself in the solo experience.
162
There was concern last month
163
when it looked to some as though Westminster City Council might be calling time on this great British tradition.
164
The Labour mayor accused the Conservative-run council of having a village hall mindset.
165
But the council insisted that it had been misunderstood, that it had no plan to ban so-called vertical drinking or standing while you drink to you and I.
166
And now it's published its revised policy, which it says makes that crystal clear.
167
So the policy hasn't changed anything fundamentally about the kind of places that can get licences.
168
So if you've been enjoying a place for the last 10 years, you're going to be able to keep on enjoying it in future.
169
The key lesson that we learned though was
170
that we need to be able to explain these policies in a way
171
that a general public audience can understand and not just the specialists for which we've written them for in the past.
172
That's welcome news for those running this Soho pub, where standing space is what keeps them profitable.
173
It's vital for the hospitality industry within Soho.
174
We're a very small pub on the inside, so a lot of our business comes from the punters coming and standing outside.
175
They fill up a lot of the capacity that we're able to take.
176
there's very limited seating and limited space inside so
177
if you were to remove that you're effectively removing half of our revenue
178
that we could generate on a you know busy Friday night Saturday night.
179
The council says their licensing consultation also revealed that people living
180
and working here wanted to see more police on the streets
181
and better bus and tube services at night
182
but the mayor's office told us they've doubled the number of offices in the West End
183
and are helping people to travel safely and affordably at all hours with London's night tube.
184
There are a of people who live in other parts of London where it's really difficult to get home late at night.
185
It's not that difficult to get home late at night from around here is it?
186
Actually it is and just saying it's not like other parts of London is precisely the point.
187
There's a thousand licensed venues in this area, there's four thousand across Westminster.
188
It's the ability for people to come out and use those and get home that's the key part of it.
189
With the mayor getting more powers from government to challenge the licensing decisions of London boroughs, future such clashes might become the usual.
190
Susanna Mendonca, BBC London.
191
Now, following the devastating floods in Nepal and Tibet, one London restaurant is starting charity dinners tonight,
192
where 100% of all ticket sales and all takings from the evening will be donated to Nepal's Disaster Relief Fund.
193
It kicks off at the Everest Inn in Blackheath tonight, which is where we can join Asad.
194
Who can tell us more?
195
Hiya.
196
Here is the Hobbs
197
and Grills have been fired up at this Nepalese restaurant where they're making dozens of delicious Indian
198
and Nepalese meals for dozens of people who've bought tickets to be here.
199
The tickets went on sale about a week ago.
200
It took just hours for them all to sell out.
201
So every seat here is going to be packed within a few minutes' time.
202
It's all the idea of Mr Yadav Bandari, the owner of Everest Inn.
203
And the way the Nepalese community have come together, particularly in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, which has London's largest Nepalese community, is extraordinary.
204
Absolutely, yeah.
205
We've got quite a big Nepalese community around this area.
206
And as soon as this tragic happened in Nepal, the devastating, you know, flooding, so many local friends and family, they called me and they said,
207
let's, you know, we'd like to do something and be part of here, you know.
208
Somebody else who's contacted you is Dame Joanna Lumley.
209
I've seen the message she sent you to wish you luck for this evening.
210
Absolutely.
211
Later on, once all the guests are here, I'll be playing such a sweet message from her.
212
And it's great, yeah.
213
But the way people have come together, not just Nepalese people, all people from this area, says a lot about how people have reacted to the terrible flooding.
214
Well, absolutely.
215
That's one thing also that everybody is heartbreaking with this, you know, tragic.
216
And, yes, we've been here 21 years and so we always, you know, be part of this local community and try to contribute the maximum possible.
217
So as soon as this happens, everybody will think of me and, you know, messaging and all that, you know, let's do something and then we're always there, you know.
218
So it's a matter of one, two days.
219
And you're doing it here, but you're doing it to other restaurants as well?
220
Absolutely.
221
We've got a branch in Ashford and Hyde, both in Kent.
222
And next Monday and the Monday after, both branches, exactly the same that we are doing there.
223
OK, Mr Mandari, thank you very much.
224
I'm just going to have a quick word here with Ian and Sarah.
225
Thank you for coming down where everyone's gathering upstairs.
226
You decided to buy tickets for this evening to support the flooding disaster fund.
227
Why was it so important for you to be here?
228
It was an absolute no-brainer.
229
Everest and Yadev and the team have been a really important part of our local community for the last 21 years.
230
They're all about friends, family and community.
231
The Nepalese fundraiser this evening is a really good example of that, and we couldn't have missed it for the world.
232
Well, it's lovely to see you.
233
Thank you for speaking to us, Sarah and Ian, and it all kicks off when we come off air at 7 o'clock.
234
Back to you.
235
An important cause.
236
Asad, thank you very much.
237
Looking at some other local stories now on BBC News, Luton Council's approved a licence for an annual three-day entertainment event at Stockwood Park,
238
which previously hosted Radio 1's Big Weekend.
239
Apparently, non-native Asian hornets are now established in the south-east.
240
That's despite a drop in sightings of these yellow-legged insects.
241
Meanwhile, over in Surrey, your chance to explore the hidden caves under the commuter town of Rygate in a series of open days.
242
Well, for those stories and more, just head over to the BBC News app.
243
It is now 35 years since the big issue hit our streets.
244
The ethos of the magazine and social enterprise
245
which was started right here in the capital is giving those
246
facing street homelessness a hand up not a handout there are
247
more than 600 people selling the big issue in london here are a couple of them
248
my name's kelvin i've been sending biggest running off for the past 35 years was homeless begging for a
249
while in and out a little bits of work
250
and one day a friend of mine says we've got there's a magazine called The Big Issue, we'd like to try and sell it.
251
I thought let's give it a go.
252
I start at seven in the morning, have a little bit of banter, there's a load of like regular customers I can relate to, have a talk to.
253
Hello everybody, hello happy guys.
254
My name is George Anderson and I've been selling The Big Issue kind of on
255
and off over the past 10 years or so.
256
I started off up in Covent Garden like a lot of people do
257
when they sell The Big Issue in London and wandering around one night
258
and I thought there's the BBC
259
and I had two magazines left over from the day
260
and they approached somebody and they bought one
261
and the woman behind them she bought one as well and I thought this is the place for me.
262
35 years of the big issue.
263
Now it is the talk of the town and the star attraction at London's British Museum.
264
The 70 meter Bayeux tapestry whose embroidered scenes tell the story of the Norman invasion of 1066.
265
But what may never be known is who exactly stitched it.
266
Well, one historian believes London may have the answer, more specifically barking, as Freddie Tennyson has been finding out.
267
Barking.
268
Not generally known for medieval blockbusters, but between the rows of houses do these ruins of an
269
abbey belie East London's possible link to a thousand year old treasure.
270
I'm absolutely flying the flag for Barking Abbey here.
271
The monks of Canterbury are recorded as having a direct relationship with the nuns in Barking.
272
They prayed for one another.
273
They mentioned each other in their masses.
274
So that to me is the most logical place.
275
It had to be embroidered by a team of women.
276
We know this.
277
The first stretch of material they're working on was 14 meters in length.
278
Now you need a huge space to lay out that sort of material.
279
You also need craftspeople who can sit shoulder to shoulder and sit while others hold it up.
280
And Professor Ramirez thinks they left clues hidden in the margins that may even hint at scandal.
281
The best way to discover the Nuns of Barking in the Bayeux Tapestry is to look in those margins.
282
And in the bottom margin you can often see the women really kind of putting secret messages into the margins.
283
There is a naked man mirroring the priest above and He's got his genitals on display.
284
So that suggests this is some sort of scandal, something salacious has happened.
285
If we had 1066 copy of OK magazine, we might know what this particular scandal is, but we don't.
286
The story shows the Normans taking control.
287
For Barking's nuns, their lives might not have been guaranteed.
288
When the Normans invaded and William started building his white tower in London, he didn't have anywhere to stay for a while.
289
The nuns of Barking put him up.
290
So they'd be the perfect candidates to stitch for their survival, if you like, try and prove to the incoming conqueror that rather than destroying everything,
291
which is what he's doing with the other conventes and monasteries, keep us on, keep us working for you.
292
Their work lived on.
293
Nearly a thousand years later, it's selling out at the British Museum.
294
Canterbury Council has demanded free tickets for its locals.
295
But what about barking?
296
I think it's a bit cheeky that all of Canterbury wants to go.
297
And if they're all going, then certainly barking should be all given an open ticket.
298
Definitely.
299
Freddie Tennyson, BBC London.
300
OK, time for a look at the weather with Kate after what felt like a bit of a summer weekend.
301
Well, it did.
302
It was very warm.
303
It certainly looks like autumn today, though, but it doesn't feel like autumn today.
304
We're still hanging on to that humidity.
305
Something a little bit fresher, though, is heading in our direction through Tuesday.
306
Now, this was earlier on there's been a lot of cloud around through the middle part of the day.
307
Some heavy cloud, not so much in the way of rain, maybe the odd spot, but nothing significant.
308
We had a few breaks though, some sunny spells which just elevated the temperature.
309
Now the weekend, Sunday saw 28 Celsius today.
310
We got around 25, which is still admittedly very warm.
311
It was a front.
312
This one is going to join us overnight and bring a little bit of rain, but eventually it will clear and then the fresh air will arrive.
313
Still looking at temperatures being in the low 20s though.
314
So this is the evening.
315
The cloud is going to increase overnight.
316
We'll see this big old band of rain.
317
It's not too significant.
318
Some heavier bursts in there.
319
There's certainly not enough to quench any of the drought conditions.
320
13 to 15 Celsius, the minimum.
321
Not quite as warm as last night, but still it is going to feel quite uncomfortable.
322
Now in the morning, it is going to be grey.
323
It's still going to be raining.
324
It's lingering this front for a while, but you'll notice it clears away south and eastwards through the afternoon, taking the cloud with it for many of us.
325
So we should get some sunshine, but that fresher air arrives, temperatures aren't going to feel as warm, or certainly not as humid, it's 19 or 20 Celsius, the maximum temperature, then overnight Tuesday into Wednesday,
326
we've got some clear spells, variable amounts of cloud, it should stay largely dry, the breeze perhaps picking up a little, and it veers more from the northwest as opposed from the west,
327
so it's going to start to feel a bit cooler, 9 to 11 through the night, certainly a little bit more comfortable for sleeping, now for Wednesday morning, we've got a little bit of sunshine to start,
328
a little bit more cloud in the afternoon, but it's a dry day.
329
A ridge of high pressure is building, so things fairly settled.
330
Temperatures on Wednesday, 19 to 21 Celsius.
331
Very similar conditions are likely on Thursday as well.
332
You see the high pressure retreating a little.
333
Overnight, we'll get another front.
334
You could see a little bit of rain.
335
That will clear through Friday, and then another ridge of high pressure build through Friday afternoon.
336
So fairly settled conditions as we head into the weekend, and you'll notice the temperature.
337
Yes, it's largely dry, but it's looking likely to get a little bit warmer through the weekend the first part of next week
338
but that is a long way off it certainly is Kate thank you
339
and that is it thanks very much for being with us more stories on our website Instagram
340
and YouTube channel from all the team have a lovely evening

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
