California at the of 85. That is all from us. There is a | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
Good evening. Parts of Jersey's first look | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
Good evening. Parts of Jersey's coast may still be unsafe after last | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
week's storms. A large rock fall at St Catherine's brought down tonnes | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
of earth yesterday, closing the footpath nearby. `` St Catherine. | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
And Plemont beach remains closed after a massive landslide. Emma | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
Chambers reports on the ever`growing list of weather casualties. They | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
were built to defend Jersey against English troops during World War II. | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
But now it seems these German fortifications are losing the battle | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
against nature. Repair work is under way here at the Royal Jersey golf | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
course after high tides and strong winds caused 20ft deep sinkholes | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
along the edge of the course. And with no proper sea defence structure | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
in place, only an anti`tank fortification wall, there is also | :00:56. | :01:05. | |
damage to one of the bunkers. The storm and strength of the waves got | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
underneath the low foundations of this war, and as the Sea withdrew, | :01:12. | :01:24. | |
it sucks out the earth `` wall. Had it been purpose`built, the | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
foundations would have been deeper and it would not have occurred. It's | :01:27. | :01:33. | |
not just damage being caused. Vast amounts of rubbish and waste have | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
been washed up along the island s beaches. A big beach clear`up is | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
taking place at L'Etacq this weekend. The beaches have been worst | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
hit in the last couple of weeks with an excessive amount of rubbish. It | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
is important we clear up the beaches. Marine life can be badly | :01:50. | :01:58. | |
hurt by this rubbish. Back on the green, the first hole will remain | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
closed for the next weeks while repairs are completed. TTS have told | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
the club that they will continue to streghten the sea wall along the | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
east coast, a popular place not just for golfers, but for walkers, too. | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
The government minister tasked with clearing Garp have this message | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
There have been three or four substantial rock falls and we ask | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
people to take care. We aren't you for another storm. `` clearing up. | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
We have coastal engineers and teams on stand`by. We are prepared for | :02:35. | :02:43. | |
anything. Condor Ferries' direct services to St Malo from Guernsey | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
and Jersey are now cancelled into next week, because of the ongoing | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
strike by French crew. Talks to resolve the dispute have continued | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
today on board the Condor Rapide in St Malo. Workers want their | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
contracts changed from Guernsey terms to French ones. But Guernsey | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
States is not getting involved. The relationship is between the | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
employer, Condor, and staff. I believe they have a staff | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
Association. Although it does not have a union, there are mechanisms | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
for staff to raise an issue with the management. We would applauded | :03:14. | :03:22. | |
encourage them to go through that process. A controversial website run | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
by a former Jersey government minister has been suspended by the | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
internet search giant Google. Stuart Syvret has posted comments about a | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
number of issues, including child abuse, on his blog site for a number | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
of years. But Google says Mr Syvret's website violates its terms | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
of service. The former health minister was jailed for three months | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
last year for failing to turn up in court after being asked to take down | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
online allegations about four islanders. | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Nurses in Guernsey have accepted a pay increase roughly in line with | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
local inflation. Nurses will get 2.1%, backdated to April 2013, and | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
2% over the coming year. Weekend trips to the bring`banks in Guernsey | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
will be a thing of the past from next month, as most recyclable items | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
will be picked up from the doorstep instead. And it will be a free | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
service for the first couple of years, at least. | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
Recycling ` it's coming to your doorstep next month and the Public | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Services department want to make sure you're prepared. Islanders are | :04:21. | :04:30. | |
sent leaflets on the introduction of kerb`side recycling as well as match | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
is offering 20% off storage containers like these, which can be | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
used to separate recyclables at home. The idea is that, thinking | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
ahead, to the scheme, people will want to organise recycling in their | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
home. The idea is to make it easier. So they mail well be to purchase | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
containers to store the recycling. Kerb`side recycling is being rolled | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
out across the island as part of a two`year pilot scheme, with the hope | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
of combating the age`old problem of waste disposal. Paper, food tins, | :05:07. | :05:08. | |
plastic packaging and everything else you might take to a bring`bank, | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
aside from glass, will be collected from your door. They need paper and | :05:13. | :05:22. | |
cardboard and then plastic, tins and cans and milk cartons. They need to | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
sort it into two streams ready to put in the bags the collection. | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
Nearly half of all islanders currently recycle, but at the end of | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
last year, the States failed to meet its recycling target of 50%. But | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
with the introduction of kerb`side recycling, it is hoped that by 025, | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
70% of household waste produced in the island will be recycled. | :05:40. | :05:50. | |
Jersey's government is being asked not to sell an historic building in | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
the Royal Square. Piquet House is a former military police station and | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
has been owned by the States for centuries. The building is now under | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
offer, but Deputy John Young wants the government to keep it and | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
convert it community use. In talking to people it is clear there are | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
community organisations that would be keen on using it and in fact the | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
States itself, there are voluntary groups who said they would be | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
interested. I propose that the Treasury Ministry has 12 months to | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
check them out, see if he can come up with a leasing plan and hippy | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
camp, that is the way to go. I am back at `` if he can, that is the | :06:30. | :06:38. | |
way to go. Now the weather. Another windy day tomorrow and a day with | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
heavy rain in the forecast. It does not want to let up, it seems. Wind | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
up to 60 mph tomorrow and more rain. The forecast tonight is the | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
showers. Haps becoming largely dry, but there is a chance of a passing | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
shower, and it will be quite a cold night. Briefly dry weather in the | :07:00. | :07:06. | |
morning, but after lunch, this line of angry looking rain will come | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
through, as much as 20 millimetres. When that has gone, it will be | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
replaced by showers, and it will be windy throughout. Blustery on | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
Thursday. We will see showers. Friday, more wet weather from the | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
south. Also blustery showers on Saturday. A little bit quieter next | :07:27. | :07:28. | |
week. In the second we forecast. From us, good night. `` | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
full national forecast. That is when the wind is going to | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
pick up. Thursday looks like a quieter day. | :07:35. | :07:42. | |
Good evening, a roller-coaster ride of weather continues across the | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
British Isles. We want to get off, but unfortunately we have got more | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
white knuckle rides to come. This area of low pressure is bringing wet | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
and extremely windy weather. It happens again on Friday with another | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
deep low moving in from the south-west. That means that | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
potentially over the next five days we could see as much a 60 - 80 | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
millimetres of rainfall, among's worth in just five days. Before that | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
there are lots of tricky conditions out there at the moment. We have got | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
snow across Scotland and Northern Ireland. As these showers pushed | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
further inland and temperatures fall away, we could see snow at lower | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
levels as well. It is a similar story for South Yorkshire and into | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
Derbyshire and perhaps the Midlands. Even if we do not get the snow, and | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
we keep the showers, it will be a cold night, so that could lead to | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
icy stretches on the roads. That will pale into insignificance | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
because the wind is already picking up and an intense band of rain | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
continues to push in across the country. This time it will be a bit | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
more prolonged for tomorrow. The wins either significant feature | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
There is an amber warning for the gusts of wind. Let's look at the | :09:10. | :09:16. | |
afternoon. In the Northern Isles and the far north of Scotland it is | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
quite quiet. Snow continues across the mountains and sharp showers in | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
northern Ireland and northern England. The winds pick up into the | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
North West and the South of Wales. The band of rain is still clinging | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
on to East Anglia and the Essex and Kent coasts. Blizzard conditions are | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
possible overnight in Scotland and on the higher ground. By Thursday | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
things potentially get a little quieter. There will be some showers | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
around, but wet and windy weather set to return as we move towards | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
Friday. | :10:00. | :10:01. |
