tomorrow. That's it. Now on BBC One, ht is | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
time for the news where you are Goodbye for now. | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
Good evening, welcome to BBC London News. A sister's hope to save her | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
brother's life has been blocked by the Home Office. Keisha Rushton | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
planned to travel from Jamahca to London to give Oliver Cameron her | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
kidney. She had been told she cannot be trusted to return home. She has | :00:30. | :00:37. | |
been refused a visa. A happx moment for Oliver and his grandson. It is | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
also a tense time in the falily home. Oliver is in desperatd need of | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
a new kidney. The tests camd back showing that the kidneys have | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
failed. What the doctor said to me on the night is that I would need an | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
operation. I would need a transplant. His sister provdd to be | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
a perfect match for the transplant and was willing to donate one of her | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
kidneys. It seemed straightforward. Unlike her brother she is not a | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
British citizen. She lives hn Jamaica and was refused entry to | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
Britain on the grounds she light not return home after the operation | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
Disappointed is not even a word to use. It is an opportunity for me to | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
go back out there and get b`ck out there into the working world. With | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
seven children, a sick mothdr and fiance back in Jamaica, his sister | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
says she has no desire to stay in the UK. I love my brother. H have | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
made this decision for him to have life. This is a very excepthonal | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
case. A man's life may depend on it. We cannot let the harsh clilate on | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
immigration let us make harsh decisions. The Home Office looks at | :01:56. | :02:04. | |
allish shoes. It said his shster's visa was denied because she could | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
not give enough evidence to prove she would return home to Jalaica | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
after her stay. Before his hllness Oliver was a plumber. He has been | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
unable to work for the past two years. He undergoes dialysis three | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
times a day at home. The trdatment is taking its toll. There are days I | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
feel I just want to give up. I just don't want to bother. He faces a | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
three`year wait on the NHS waiting list. He has hopes that the | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
authorities could speed up the process by giving his sister a visa. | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
A picture showing Prince Ch`rles gagged has been sensored by the | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
company responsible for advdrtising on London's underground. Thhs is the | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
original image, which is behng used to promote a play about the Royal | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
Family being held at the Alleida Theatre. This is the pixell`ted | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
version. The company responsible has been unawabl for comment. | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
`` unavailable for comment. Hundreds of canoeists crossdd the | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
finishing line in London, after a gruelling 125 mile race down the | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
River Thames. 600 canoeists took part. It lasted two days, starting | :03:20. | :03:28. | |
in Devizes, ending in Westmhnster. You are doing this again! It has | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
defeated Olympic medallists. This morning, anyone on the soggx | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
Westminster Bridge, would h`ve witnessed those who made it through | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
one of the toughest endurance events in the world. They do not stop to | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
eat and drink. They are fed and watered along the way. They keep on | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
going through the night. No sleep, no rest at all. They do not stop for | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
anything. The supporters have been up all | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
night too, following them from lock to lock, after one of the wdttest | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
winters on record made training harder. It is a bit mental. I mean, | :04:03. | :04:09. | |
it is great. She enjoys it. What do you think of your wife doing this? I | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
am very proud of her. They `rrived in dribs and drabs, the winners | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
making it in after a compar`tively quick 17 hours. Which bit htrts now? | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
My hands. I have blisters all over it. | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
But blisters were the least of this pair's worries. They fell ott of | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
their boat 300 metres beford the end. The rules say you must finish | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
with your canoe, so they had to swim. | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
Go guys! Only 80% of those who start finish | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
this race. It was doubly re`ssuring when one particular canoe c`me in. | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
It is a once in a lifetime for me. That is it, I am never doing it | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
again. It is good to va the medal. `` it is good to have the mddal | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
