Even by the standards we've very sadly
grown used to, the video apparently
recorded by the asalent behind the
latest school shooting in Minneapolis
was utterly chilling. Two children were
killed, one aed 10, one aged eight, and
many more injured. The asalent appears
to have been attracted to far-right
ideology, including apparent signs of
racism and anti-semitism. Roit and
Robert will explain. Also on News at 10
tonight,
Nigel Farage flip-flops after saying all
illegal migrants would be deported
yesterday. Today he said only men would
be and then uh men and single women.
I was very very clear yesterday in what
I said that that the deportation of
illegal immigrants, we were not even
discussing women and children at this
stage. You know, if if if a single woman
etc. comes to Britain, they will be
detained and deported.

This is ITV News at 10 with Tom Bradby.
Good evening. The first week of a new
school term in the American city of
Minneapolis has begun tragically with a
mass shooting. It happened at a small
church school during a service to
celebrate the return to lessons. Two
children, one ate, the other 10 were
shot dead through the windows of their
school chapel. The attacker, a former
pupil who later identified as a woman,
then shot themsself. 15 of the 17
injured were children. It appears to
have been pre-planned with alarming
videos which we are about to show timed
by the attacker to appear online as the
shooting itself took place. The city's
mayor said the pupils were praying when
the shooting began.
>> The darkest of America's regular
tragedies has returned. A school
shooting and it occurred on the very
first week of classes after the summer
holidays.
This time the attack was on a Roman
Catholic primary school in Minneapolis.
The perpetrator firing through a window
as the young pupils prayed in the
adjacent church.
>> My mom was waiting outside of the um the
church when it happened. I was scared
that I wasn't going to see her cuz I I
didn't know what was happening really. I
was just in shock.
For parents, this is the nightmare that
has stalked American schools for years.
>> Yeah. So, she called me hysterical and
the first thing she said is, "Mom, I'm
safe, but something something really bad
is happening." And that's the worst call
to get as a parent. I mean,
>> the police chief outlined the harrowing
details. During the mass, a gunman
approached on the outside on the side of
the building and began firing a rifle
through the church windows
towards the children sitting in the pews
at the mass. The sheer cruelty
and cowardice of firing into a church
full of children is absolutely
incomprehensible.
The attacker is believed to be Robin
Westman, 23 years old, and a former
pupil at the school, leaving online a
trail of deeply disturbing videos,
including a manifesto of bitterness
against the world. There was a detailed
sketch of the church and its pews,
indicating the extent of the planning,
and the asalant showed off the
ammunition and the weaponry that was to
be used.
Some of it indicating that a
presidential assassination attempt might
also have been a possibility. Police say
all the guns were purchased legally
as political figures, including the
president, offered condolences and
sympathy. And with the White House flag
flying at half staff, the city's mayor
dismissed those messages as meaningless.
>> Don't just say this is about thoughts
and prayers right now. These kids were
literally praying. It was the first week
of school. they were in a church.
They should be able to go to school or
church in peace without the fear or risk
of violence. And their parents should
have the same kind of assurance.
>> This is an attack that will frighten
parents across America as other school
communities wonder if they too will one
day have to endure a similar horror.
>> And Robert joins us now. Robert, this is
obviously unfolding horror tonight.
What's the latest?
>> Well, the latest is that that death toll
remains at two, that 8-year-old and that
10year-old pupil. 17 others were
injured. 14 or 15 of those were
children. Thankfully, they are all
expected to survive. Tonight, the FBI
director Cash Patella said this will be
investigated as an act of domestic
terrorism. He went on to say this will
also uh be investigated as a hate crime
against Catholics. Of course, in in
recent years, certainly since the 2012
massacre at Sandy Hook in Connecticut,
at that primary school, there have been
many uh mass shootings at schools, at
colleges, at at places of worship. And
always, Tom, the same debate rages. You
know, how to fortify schools? Are there
sufficient mental health resources?
Should teachers be armed? That's always
a a fraught debate like this and whether
online uh media companies are doing
enough to identify threats like in this
case that is certain uh to be a major
argument. One thing that is off the
political agenda particularly with this
White House with this Congress and in
this political climate one thing that is
off the agenda is all talk about gun
control.
>> Okay Robert, thank you very much indeed.
And Rohit is here to talk about all
this. uh sadly always hear when we have
these attacks of various kinds. Look,
this I think it's fair to say this is a
very confusing picture tonight. It's
been reported by the New York Times um
that this the asalent was a trans
person, but at the same time there were
slogans, racist, anti-semitic, anti-LGBT
slogans. So, you know, at the moment
we're all trying to make sense of that.
The basic truth is we don't seem to have
any clear motivation at all. Is that
fair? And and how does that
>> fit into the picture of motivations
generally?
>> Well, clearly we can't sit at this desk
and diagnose the motive. However, there
is a lot of evidence that's emerging.
Cash Patel, the FBI director, has been
trying to clear some of that up by
saying that yes, this was an act of
domestic terrorism, a hate crime
targeting Catholics. um which was of
course the case uh during mass um
shooting um through the church door
windows. However, I think a lot of
people who study forms of extremism will
suspect that this is far more
complicated than um than a single um
motive. And some of that evidence comes
from uh uh what we've seen scrolled on
some of uh the asalants firearms slogans
that as you say were uh homophobic were
um many anti-semitic slogans scrolled on
the side um of the firearms there um as
you can see but also uh tributes to mass
shooters across a wide range of um
ideological motives including Brent
Tarrant, the the Christ Church shooter
who who killed worshippers inside a
mosque in New Zealand a few years ago. I
I think what many people will say is
that this appears to be in a box that is
called mixed uh unstable and unclear
ideology. This is a sort of um growing
ideological trend which doesn't fit uh
into one label. It is perhaps um
supercharged by the influence of the
internet um sometimes by mental illness
um as well. And perhaps uh most striking
uh to many people will be one of the
slogans uh scrolled on the side of one
of those firearms which was there is no
message.
All right. Scary. Thanks Rah. Um, now
for a party leader back here, one of the
drawbacks of being out in front in the
polls is the extra scrutiny it brings.
And there has certainly been plenty of
scrutiny of Nigel Farage's
uncompromising policy speech yesterday
on stopping illegal migration. Mr.
Farage said a reformed UK government
would deport women and children along
with the young men who've arrived on
small boats. When he was challenged
about that today in Edinburgh, he
appeared to change tac twice.
He came to Edinburgh boyed by his big
announcement on mass deportations
yesterday. Today was a mission to park
reforms tanks on Hollywood's lawn.
But Nigel Farage was soon accused of
reaching for the reverse gear.
>> I was very very clear yesterday in what
stage. There were so many illegal males
in Britain and the news reports that
said that after my conference yesterday
were wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
>> So women and children will be exempt. I
>> I didn't say exempt forever, but at this
stage that is not part of our plan for
the next 5 years. Absolutely.
>> But hang on, you'd be forgiven for
thinking that sounds rather different to
what he said in his big pitch just 24
hours ago. The only way
we will stop the boats
is by detaining and deporting absolutely
anyone that comes via that route. And
yes, women and children, everybody on
arrival will be detained.
>> To add to the confusion, Nigel Faraj's
deputy had just been on the radio.
>> What we can do is protect our own
people. But he said reform would deport
women even if it meant sending them to
countries where rape is being used as a
weapon of war.
>> Welcome, welcome, welcome.
>> Nigel Farage had wanted this to be all
about his special announcement of a
Scottish Tory MSP defecting, but the
reform leader had to go back in front of
cameras once more to clarify exactly
what he meant.
>> Children, sorry. Okay, there's slight
confusion here. You know, if if if a
single woman, etc., comes to Britain,
they will be detained and deported. If a
woman comes with children, we'll work
out the best thing to do.
>> Reform's headline grabbing mass
deportation idea was already faltering
and it was barely off the launch pad.
But it is still popular. New polling
shows concern about immigration is
rising sharply across the UK. Now the
conundrum for Labor is how they can out
Farage Farage if they want to stay in
power.
>> Unless Labour can come up with a
concrete plan. Now, you might dispute
Faraj's plan that he came out with um
earlier this week, but it was something
that voters could at least sort of feel
was a little bit more tangible than I
think current plans to reduce um both
illegal and legal migration. So, in the
absence of something that you're saying
is concrete and going to deliver, uh I
think sort of stoking the flames on it
is only going to drive voters away from
you in both directions. Nigel Farage
leaves Scotland with his message
muddied, but his gamble is set. That a
fear of immigration can yet rewrite
Britain's politics.
>> Peter reform consistently 10 points or
so ahead in the polls, 8 to 10 points.
Do you think this knocks them back at
all, this slight flip-flopping, or do
you think it's water off a duck's back?
Well, I think Nigel Fra knows well there
are people who will scoff at anything he
proposes, but he also knows very well,
maybe better than any other mainstream
political leader in the country at the
moment, his target audience. And he's
banking on people who are fed up with
the political parties and the
politicians failing to tackle this issue
of immigration and concern about
immigration is rising. He's hoping that
people will not pay too much attention
to the the devil in the detail. They'll
be looking at the headline figure, vote
reform, we will have mass deportation,
600,000 people out of the country within
the first uh 5 years. How we go about
that, well, we can deal with the detail
later on. I think it's also important to
say that this has somewhat distracted
from what he was hoping to be a big
moment for him, making a dent in
Scottish politics, announcing a
defection from the Scottish
Conservatives. Graham Simpson, MSP,
you'd be forgiven if you don't know him.
He's not household name in Scotland
either. He wasn't even elected to the
Scottish Parliament. He only got in on
on the list. But Nigel Farage was forced
to retreat retreat again when he said it
was reform's first ever Scottish MSP.
That of course was Michelle Baneline who
was Nigel Farage said please forgive me.
She was before my time but he did get
that one wrong again in Scotland here
today.
Peter, thank you very much indeed. And
for a special edition of talking
politics, just before we came on out,
Peter and I discuss whether Reform UK is
a growing force in Scottish and UK
politics at the expense of both Labour
and the SNP. That'll be on ITVX and
YouTube and wherever you get your
podcast very shortly, and I commend it
to you. It was a well, I thought it was
a very interesting chat. Hey, now, as
you might have seen, Grimby Town have
had the greatest night in their history.
Manchester United have had their most
grim and, let's be honest, humiliating
cup defeat in modern times. The Carabau
Cup winners of two years ago were beaten
in the competition tonight by the League
2 side who frankly deserved their win,
although it had to be settled by
seemingly endless nerve jangling
penalties.
>> They were up against the competition's
sixtime winners for a historic meeting.
>> For the first time in 77 years, Grimby
Town and Manchester United are playing
each other
>> and they didn't disappoint. Veron coming
up on the outside.
>> Charles Vernham sent the ball into the
bottom left corner past United's Onana
at his near post.
>> Charles Vernon with the goal.
>> Fans at Blundle Park were delirious
under the flood lights
despite one disallowed goal.
>> And it has been ruled out for hand ball
by Tony Harrington.
>> He was unlucky there really.
>> The League Two side would have more to
celebrate. And Anna comes out. Oh, he's
dropped it. They're going to poke it
out. It's in.
>> Grimby doubled their lead with Tyrell
Warren tapping the ball into an empty
net.
>> Chumbled.
>> A fragile defense was staged by United
at first.
>> And he drags Manchester United back into
the game.
>> Brian and Burmo scored his first goal
for the club, placing a shot in the
bottom right corner.
>> Spun it past him. Still, it was hard to
ignore the chance from the crowds
directed at Ruben Amarim, warning he'd
be sacked in the morning.
>> The manager has struggled for results
since arriving at United,
>> but Harry Maguire came to the club's
rescue with a late equalizer this
evening.
>> It's heartbre.
>> The Mariners refused to let their
spirits be dampened. The players rallied
around each other as it went to
penalties. And it's a super finish.
>> It was a difficult watch.
>> It's Kuna. He doesn't score this.
>> Neither team crumbled under the
pressure.
>> It's Fernandez. Nerves of steel.
>> It was all level.
>> So he didn't think he'd have to do it
again so quickly.
>> He has
>> until
>> Which side is he going to go this time?
He's going to hit the bar. Oh, got out.
>> And hit the crossbar during a staggering
shootout. and they would not let
Manchester United off the hook.
>> Grimby Town fans invaded the pitch,
lifting up the players who caused one of
the biggest upsets in United's history.
Tonight, their team was better and
braver. Although the journey towards the
Carabal Cup continues, it's a night that
will not be forgotten for some time.
Laura Jones, News at 10.
>> By any standards, what a game. Now
intense rain over the Himalayas has
triggered more flash floods and
landslides in Pakistan and India. A
section of mountainside in Indian
controlled Kashmir has come down on a
popular Hindu pilgrimage pilgrimage
route to a mountain shrine. More than 30
people were killed there on the flood
plains of Pakistan. Yet more water is on
the way released from two Indian dams
that were at risk of bursting.
When a swollen river moves with such
devastating force, raging is exactly
right. In Indian controlled Kashmir,
intense rains have triggered flash
flooding. The mass of water has ripped
through roads and buildings in Jamu and
dumped the rubble downstream.
When this bridge began to crumble, cars
were at risk of falling into the river
below. Those inside a white 4x4 were
lucky to escape. Inescapable was the
crush of a huge landslide that killed at
least 32 people.
>> We had no time to react, not even a
single second to save anyone. She says
her daughter and sister are among the
dead.
With its dams overflowing, India has
warned neighboring Pakistan it's opening
gates and releasing water into rivers
the two countries share.
It means things are expected to get
worse in the already flooded areas of
Pakistan's Punjab province. Today, the
army have been called in to help with
evacuations.
The region, home to half the country's
240 million people, is also its
agricultural heartland.
Our houses were submerged and everything
was destroyed. He says the mudous
collapsed. We saved our children and
animals.
Pakistan has been particularly badly hit
this monsoon season. As a result, almost
800 people have been killed nationwide
since late June. Scientists say climate
change is fueling heavier rains across
South Asia, raising the risk of
catastrophic flooding. Carrie Davis,
News at 10.
In the past few months, the government
has been quietly rebuilding agreements
with the European Union on things like
defense and fishing. Now, they are
working towards a food and drink deal
that the EU relations minister Nick
Thomas Simmons said will bring down
>> We import 2/3 of our cheese. That is a
disgrace. From cheddar cheese to the
great British banger, British
politicians have long promised a better
deal on British goods and since Brexit
have talked up the opportunities for
food trade.
>> These wonderful arnuts can
>> and today the government set out its
ambition to lower food costs through a
permanent agreement with the EU.
>> It means aligning standards on food and
agriculture. For farmers, agra food
exports will become cheaper and easier.
For haulers, they will spend less time
sitting in their cabs and in longer
queues. For consumers, prices will come
down.
>> The PM has tried to reset relations with
Europe amid OBR forecasts that trade
with the block will be 15% lower than if
we'd remained in the EU. Back in May,
the UK and EU held their first joint
summit since Brexit and made progress on
fishing, defense, and a youth mobility
scheme. In June, the government stopped
border checks on medium risk fruit and
veg imports, but this will expire in
2027. Ministers want a permanent
agreement by then, which they say will
cut border checks on plant and animal
goods, even as some polling shows
skepticism over whether Brexit has been
a success. Nigel Farage says the
government is betraying the public.
Well, Labour seemed to be trying to
betray Brexit in every way by going for
something called dynamic alignment in in
an increasing number of areas of our
economy, which effectively means that we
take EU rules without even debating them
or voting on on on them in parliament.
>> This business owner sells food products
to airlines and supermarkets globally.
She argues the devil will be in the
detail.
>> I am really hopeful that we will have a
better trade deal with the EU. We should
be able to trade with our neighbors. But
what I really would like to see from
Labor is a little bit more certainty, a
little bit more tangible aspects of a
trade deal of being able to go, okay,
how do I get my product from A to B?
Talks won't begin until the autumn and
any final deal will be scrutinized by
Parliament. But ministers are already
braced for yet another political fight
over the UK's relationship with Europe.

Firefighters and farmers are throwing
everything at a wildfire on the North
York Moors that has been burning for
more than a fortnight. Adding to the
danger, unexloded Second World War bombs
up there that are being detonated by the
smoldering Pete. 18 so far.
As a relentless summer of droughts goes
on, the heat continues to encroach on
those living on the Yorkshire coast.
>> Try and pull the heather in front of the
fire.
so that it has no fuel to burn.
>> Farmers last night desperately trying to
save their land with 25 square
kilometers ablaze after being starved of
rain, leaving many fearing for their
homes.
>> Everything's here and in the back of the
van. We fleeed it. Yeah.
>> Michelle, who's lived on land near
Whitby all her life, says her home was
surrounded by smoke to the point she
decided to evacuate her horse, Bertie.
But we're praying for rain now to try
and help the firefighters and the
farmers put it out.
>> Haven't seen anything like this before.
>> No, not in my town. No, I don't really
want to experience it again either. We
see all this kind of thing going on in
California and Greece, but you don't
expect to see it in your own country,
let alone on your own doorstep. People
are losing their livelihoods. They're
losing vehicles. Yeah, it's something
needs doing now. In Whitby, the views
have been clouded by drifting smoke as
firefighters and volunteers several
miles away continue to tackle a more
fire that started 16 days ago. That's
prompted well-wishes in the town to
donate supplies to help those trying to
stop the spread. They've got volunteers
up there putting the fire out cuz the
government don't seem interested in
getting the army or anybody involved and
uh and they're up there thirsty and
hungry.
Meanwhile, the fire service says its
complex work is ongoing. The blaze has
even led 18 unexloded bombs to detonate
on RAF land.
>> Part of the land that we were
firefighting upon uh was an old World
War II uh tank training area and
therefore there had the potential to
have unex unexloded ordinance underneath
and as it's burned down through the
pete, that's when it has then ignited.
>> Well, this is as close as we can get to
the fire at the moment, though. The
smell here is still thick in the air. We
have started to feel drops of rain
falling, but it's going to take many
more of them for people's fears here to
be fully extinguished. This ever
evolving fire threatening more land and
more livelihoods as the days go by.

Finally, a real life television drama of
triumph over tragedy and then injustice.
The actor Sheridan Smith told us playing
the mother of a murder victim is the
hardest job of her career. Anne Ming's
daughter Julie was strangled in 1989.
The man who did it was initially cleared
of murder, but Anne didn't give up.
>> How can the man who killed my little
girl be free to keep on living his life
as long as
>> Anming's story is one of tragedy,
strength, and determination. And the
actress playing her is in awe. As soon
as I got the, you know, the the story, I
I I I jumped at the chance and then read
Anne's book, For the Love of Julie, and
it's all like in Anne's words. And I
mean, I cried my eyes out and I just And
then we met, didn't we? And then
instantly I just felt, you know, I
couldn't stop hugging you, could I?
Instantly. You must have been like, who
is this crazy woman?
>> And then when I watched the first
episode, I I cried all the way through
it. Anne's daughter Julie was 22 when
she was murdered in her home in County
Durham in 1989. Despite a police search
of the house, it was Anne who found
Julie's body hidden beneath the bath
many weeks later. The law meant her
killer William Dunlop could not be tried
for the murder again despite confessing.
How an law scrapped in 2005 is the
subject of a new drama. Do you look back
and with some dismay that it took so
long that it was so difficult that
people didn't listen to you?
>> I mean I don't have any animosity
towards police. I did in the beginning
just the ones who sort of searched the
house and didn't find Julie. I mean cuz
they put us through 75 days of extra
torture.
>> I am telling you something's happened to
her. I want any of you listen to me. It
was like I only did it for you know nine
weeks of filming but it was I like to
try and live and breathe that you know
what a thanks an but I mean what I went
through was this what you know and I
don't know how you did it.
>> I think you've gone on record saying
it's one of the hardest things you've
ever had to do.
>> Oh the hardest job of my career. Yeah
definitely because I just like what you
went it was one thing after another
after another. you were just constantly
coming up against things and living in
this this state of anxiety
>> and I was just so determined and of
course out of everybody had the biggest
mouth so that was it. So and northern I
