News Jingle: The News on POP FM LONDON 96.4.
News Presenter (Jess Johnson): I’m Jess Johnson with the POP FM LONDON News at 5. This evening’s headlines: Murder enquiry launched after fatal stabbing in Stratford…Environment Minister under attack following damning pollution report…London popstar back in rehab…and Hackney Rovers dream of causing FA Cup upset against Manchester United.
NEWS MUSIC
News Presenter (Jess Johnson) A murder inquiry has been launched after a woman was stabbed to death at Stratford shopping centre last night. The victim, believed to be in her 40s, suffered multiple stab wounds and despite treatment was pronounced dead at the scene. Police found her after being called to reports of a disturbance at the centre just after 8p.m. yesterday evening. Detective Inspector Morgan of the Metropolitan Police spoke earlier this morning.
Detective Inspector (Press Conference, sounds of cameras flashing): We can confirm that a woman in her 40s died last night after a brutal knife attack in East London. We are appealing for members of the public who were at the Stratford Shopping Centre between 7.30 and 8.30p.m. yesterday evening to come forward with any information that may help with our investigation. The perpetrator of this hideous attack remains at large and we would ask the public to remain vigilant.
News Presenter (Jess Johnosn): The woman becomes the eighth person to be fatally stabbed in London in the last week.
In other news…A mass rally will take place tonight outside the Houses of Parliament in protest at findings in a report released yesterday about pollution levels in the Capital. The study conducted by the Centre for Clean Air Policy Group has revealed that London is the second most polluted city in Europe. Earlier today POP FM’s Political Correspondent Bill Pope, spoke to Sue Smedley, the organiser of this evening’s protest.
Bill Pope: The release of yesterday’s report has caused quite a stir in Westminster and already protesters are beginning to gather ahead of this evening’s rally. The report was incredibly critical of the Government’s attempts to reduce carbon emissions in London, a city second only to Moscow in Europe in terms of its pollution levels. I spoke to Sue Smedley whose ‘No to Carbon’ pressure group is behind tonight’s protest, earlier today about what she hopes to achieve.
Sue Smedley: What we want is for this Government to come good on the promises they made before they were elected. We were told that Greenhouse Emissions targets would be met by 2020 but yesterday’s report is clear that they cannot be met until 2035 at the earliest. The Tories promised they would lead the world in environmental protection yet only Moscow has higher pollution levels than us. We are here to demand change and if that means the resignation of Michael Gove, then so-be-it.
News Presenter (Jess Johnson): Teen pop sensation Bella Rose is back in rehab for the third time this year after police were called to her hotel in Camden earlier this week. POP FM spoke to concerned fans outside The Priory, who were keen to show support for the troubled singer.
Vox Pop 1 (WOMAN): I hope she’s ok – I love Bella and I had tickets for tomorrow’s concert. I know she’s had problems since Jonny cheated on her and hopefully rehab will help her through it.
Vox Pop 2 (WOMAN): I’m really worried about her health. I went to last night’s show and she was a bit of a mess on stage. Fingers crossed rehab will work this time.
Vox Pop 3 (MAN): We need to think about the pressure of fame on our young stars. Look what happened to Amy Winehouse. Bella Rose is going through exactly the same thing. Someone needs to step in before it’s too late.
News Presenter (Jess Johnson): Hackney Rovers’ striker Bobby Wilder has urged fans to get behind the team ahead of the team’s 4th round FA Cup tie against the mighty Manchester United. Wilder sees tonight’s game at Old Trafford as an opportunity for players to showcase the talent in the lower leagues and believes that there could be an upset on the cards.
Bobby Wilder: Well, the Cup’s a real leveller and if we can sneak a draw and get them back to our place, who knows – we might just do ‘em. We need our fans to be the 12th man tonight as the boys have never played on this stage before. It’s a real chance for some of the lads to put themselves in the shop window.
News Presenter (Jess Johnson): Full coverage of the game will be on our sister station SPORT FM LONDON starting at 7:30 this evening… And finally the weather. A dry, but cold evening across London tonight with lows of 2 degrees. It should be a little warmer tomorrow and it looks bright and sunny for the weekend.
Traffic and Travel Jingle: Traffic and Travel on POP FM LONDON 96.4 in Association with the RAC – Getting You Home Safely.
Traffic and Travel Presenter (Peter Hart): Good afternoon, I’m Peter Hart with the Capital’s Traffic and Travel. The A406 is down to one lane Southbound between Brent Cross and Hanger Lane after a lorry shed its load earlier this afternoon. There are tailbacks as far as the A10. Emergency repair works on the A12 in Stratford mean its slow-going around the London Stadium. Expect delays of up to an hour. And a burst water main on Wandsworth High Road has brought traffic to a standstill. Avoid the area for the next two hours if you can. There’ll be more traffic and travel updates in an hour.
