Last night's BBC documentary showing the evolving communities of the East End has drawn criticism from viewers who branded the programme 'racist' and accused it of 'white supremacist propaganda'. The Last Whites of the East End received mixed reviews on Twitter (inset), with some branding it the 'most racist programme I've ever watched' and others threatening to cancel their licence fee. However, while not all were impressed with the show, some did applaud the BBC for giving an insight into the east London borough of Newham where 73 per cent of the local population is now made up of ethnic minorities and Black British. The programme looked into how cockneys are becoming an endangered species in the borough, with many moving towards Essex, after 70,000 immigrants moved in over the past 15 years. Pictured: East London in January, top, and in the 1970s, bottom. Left: Leanne Oakham, a sixth-generation cockney (pictured with her mother Debbie), who plans to move away from the Newham area because 'it's just scary now' and people 'will bring knives'.

'I wouldn't go into Central London through June or July. ENGLAND - BOOM': British ISIS recruiter known as Mrs Terror issues chilling threat of summer terror campaign
One of ISIS's most renowned British jihadi brides Sally Jones has issued a chilling threat against civilians in the UK, warning of terror attacks in London. 'To be honest I wouldn't go into Central London through June... or even July well to be honest I wouldn't go there at all especially by Tube,' Jones wrote on social media. The dimwitted former benefits scrounger, who abandoned her disastrous career as a punk rocker to convert to Islam, revealed she is now hiding in the ISIS-held city of Mosul in Iraq. She also tweeted: 'England... Boom' moments before she was suspended from Twitter.

Fish-keeping father-of-one is told to demolish his garden pond - because BURGLARS could fall in it and drown
Sovereign Housing have ordered Kevin Sheehan (pictured) to demolish the water features at his home in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. When he asked why, the 62-year-old claims they told him the measure had to be adopted because 'if someone breaks in they could fall in the pond'. Mr Sheehan, who lives with his partner and their one-year-old daughter Olivia, has slammed the ruling as 'ridiculous' - insisting people should not be breaking into his property in the first place. He has been given three weeks to make the changes.
'Project Fear' is damaging public trust in David Cameron, poll finds amid growing speculation of a leadership contest after EU referendum
Just 18 per cent of voters trust the Prime Minister on the EU referendum, showing his repeated warnings of a Brexit vote - known as 'Project Fear' - is failing to win over voters. Boris Johnson is the most trusted politician on the EU with 31 per cent, with Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn second on 28 per cent. The YouGov poll for The Times shows the EU referendum result on a knife-edge, despite two polls in the last fortnight showing big leads for the campaign to Remain in the EU. According to today's poll, both the Brexit and Remain campaigns are on 41 per cent, with 13 per cent undecided and 4 per cent saying they would not vote in the June 23 referendum. On the issue of trust, even former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith, another leading member of the Vote Leave campaign, is more trusted than Mr Cameron.

Businessman buys his local council car park and makes it FREE to use - which will come in very handy for the derelict hotel next door he bought 24 hours later!
He is a businessman who was hailed yesterday by residents of a coastal village after buying his local car park off the council and immediately making it free for motorists rather than £3 a day. But Rob Braddick's new lease on a car park in Westward Ho!, Devon, took an interesting twist today after he bought a 12-bedroom Victorian property on the site for £414,000 less than 24 hours later. The father-of-two, whose family have run the nearby Braddicks Holiday Centre for nearly 70 years, said the car park was in a field his grandfather once owned but was compulsory purchased in 1965. And today it was revealed at 3pm he had bought the mysterious property - which needs extensive refurbishment - after it was auctioned by Seldons estate agents at a guide price of £400,000.

Embarrassing Bodies surgeon, 53, 'punched his daughter in the face and threatened to kill her after she branded his new 21-year-old lover a 'wild whore' during a bitter family row'
Professor Basil Ammori, 53 (pictured centre outside his medical council tribunal in Manchester), grabbed his daughter Huda Ammori, 22 (left), by the neck as they argued on his doorstep over him leaving his GP wife and setting up home with a 21-year-old lover, the tribunal heard. During the bust-up Ammori, who appeared on hit Channel 4 show Embarrassing Bodies, screamed 'wild b****' as he ranted about his former wife Dr Almira Al-Abadi, also 53 (pictured right outside the tribunal). He lashed out and punched his 22-year-old daughter, a university economics student, 'very, very hard' after she labelled his young new girlfriend a 'wild whore', it was said. In the run up to the violence, father-of-three Ammori had sent his ex-wife of 26 years a text message suggesting his daughter and her two brothers Mohannad, 26, and Ahmed, 23, had smeared his unnamed girlfriend on a personal ads site.

Goodbye Norma Jean: Pet owner is devastated after cat she took in NINE years ago thinking it was stray is returned to its original owner 450miles away
Rosalin Montgomery, 52, adopted the kitten during a holiday to Torquay, Devon, in 2007 after believing she was a stray, took her home to Glasgow and named her Ember (pictured, left). But when the grey cat recently went missing she was handed to Cats Protection in East Kilbride, which scanned her chip and realised she was actually called Norma Jean, and returned her to her original owners 450 miles away in Torquay (pictured, right). Miss Montgomery heard about it by reading about the re-union in a local media report, and is now begging for her pet to be returned.
Moment golfer appears to struggle to fit his designer golf clubs into the boot of his £180,000 Lamborghini... and has to be rescued by a friend in a £11,000 Renault Clio
The golfer was forced to call for help from a friend in a much less valuable Renault Clio (bottom right) after failing to fit his set of clubs into the Lamborghini (left, centre) outside a course in Wolverhampton. According to onlookers, the golfer had rented the £180,000 supercar (top right) for the day in a bid to impress pals as he left the course. He had rented the vehicle from Birmingham-based Celebrity Supercar Hire, which said it was 'pretty clear there was not much space in the boot' after the incident.
Boy, three, died just two weeks after starting pre-school after picking up rare stomach bug which led to meningitis
Henry Walter (left, and right with his sister Tilly, eight) had returned home from pre-school with a sticker for helping tidy up the nursery - but just 24 hours later he had died from a rare stomach bug which led to meningitis. The three-year-old from Leeds had gone to bed at 7.30pm before he complained of a stomach ache to his mother, Vicky (inset with Tilly and father Mark). Just hours later he was rushed to Leeds General Infirmary, West Yorkshire, where his family were told within 20 minutes of arriving at the resuscitation unit that they were going to lose their little boy.
EXCLUSIVE: Decaying £1million Grand Designs eco-house is the centre of eight-year land dispute with neighbour who claims architect owes her £55,000
Architect Robert Gaukroger, top right, built Dome House in the Lake District in 2010 after buying a patch of land from his neighbour Jane Moore. But she ended up taking him to court claiming that he had fenced off a large area of the land she still owned, top left, next to the house in the picturesque town of Bowness-on-Windermere. The warring residents settled out of court before the case came to a trial - but Mrs Moore says he still owes £55,000 in legal fees. Mr Gaukroger is now attempting to sell off Dome House, whose interior is pictured bottom right, as a block of flats after he moved to London with his family to embark on a post-graduate degree.

Britain's loneliest dog: Rescue mutt Freya has 700 Facebook friends but has never had a home after being turned down 18,000 times because of her epilepsy
Freya, a six-year-old Staffordshire bull terrier cross, has amassed a cool 700 Facebook friends but just cannot find a family after six years at Freshfields Animal Rescue in Liverpool. She has been overlooked by 18,000 potential owners and staff are now desperate to see her home. The lonely pet has recently been diagnosed with epilepsy, leaving her carers more anxious than ever that she will never find a loving home. They feel that now more than ever the 'sweet' dog deserves to be with someone who will be there to support her.
THE WORLD AT A GLANCE
Revealed: Ex-soldier who stripped naked and fed HIMSELF to the lions thought he was God's prophet and 'never got over his mother dying from cancer when he was 11'
Franco Ferrada, who has been pictured in the Chilean media, left, launched himself into the lion pit at Santiago Zoo in front of horrified onlookers on Saturday (right), leaving a note in his abandoned clothes' pocket announcing the apocalypse and declaring himself a prophet. MailOnline can now reveal the 20-year-old was still struggling with the sudden death of his mother 10 years ago. Former soldier Ferrada and his eight siblings were put into care immediately afterwards, with his alcoholic father unable to care for them - something he has never forgiven him for.
