Good evening, I'm Jenny Kirk. An inquest in Bury St Edmunds has been | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
told that over a two`month period, the police had been called ten times | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
to deal with a teenager who eventually hanged herself. The body | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
of Becky Watkins was found `t the Evergreen Children's Home in Brandon | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
five years ago. Ian Barmer was at the inquest. | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
Becky was found hanged from a wardrobe door at Evergreen | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
Children's Home in June, 2009. She was 16, from Braintree in Essex and | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
the inquest painted a picture of short and troubled life, falily | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
health and mental albums. Bdcky was on the Child Protection Reghster and | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
in foster care. In 2007, shd made an allegation of a significant assault. | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
In 2008, she took a paracet`mol overdose. She was sectioned under | :01:01. | :01:06. | |
the Mental Health Act, and then she went to Evergreen Children's Home. | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
There she told a friend that she was going to kill herself. She said she | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
was exhausted at having to put it rave face on all the time. Hn the | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
two month she was at Evergrden Children's Home, police werd called | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
ten times to deal with her. He senior care assistant also gave | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
evidence and said Becky had told a colleague she was going to kill | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
herself in the next couple of days, two days before she did it. Charlene | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
Carroll said she did not know about this and if she had, she wotld have | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
told the night shift and Becky would not have been alone. Staff were | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
checking on her every ten, 05 minutes and there is no suggestion | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
staff were not doing their job Rob Lee on that night. But her plight | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
was summed up by a witness who told the court that she was a girl who | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
just did not see herself with a future. | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
There is a month to go before the European Elections and the campaign | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
has started to hot up. The Green Party came very close to winning a | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
seat in the East last time `round, and today, the party launchdd its | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
campaign. The Greens lead c`ndidate here is Dr Rupert Read, a Norfolk | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
academic. At the 2009 Euro elections, he missed a seat by just | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
1% of the vote. This time, he is standing again and needs to reach | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
10% to gain a seat in Strasbourg. Well, the Green Party's leader is | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
Natalie Bennett, and she johns me now. Let's look at some of the | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
issues, coastal defences, flooding, erosion, people care a lot `bout | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
that, what are you doing about it in Europe? We want to look at dach area | :02:40. | :02:47. | |
on its own merits. We have ` situation where the sea levdl is | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
rising and we need to act on climate change to reduce that effect. The | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
South of England is sinking and we have to look at the effect of | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
flooding water coming from the land, we will see increased rain. We have | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
to plan to trees in the Open is because where water runs on a tree, | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
64 more times water `` more water is absorbed. We have to look at this in | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
a holistic way. The Colchester food bank, it you were discussing this | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
tonight, how is what you discussed affecting what you are doing in | :03:21. | :03:21. | |
Europe? What was fascinating `` it was fascinating and disturbhng that | :03:22. | :03:31. | |
that 12 food and across Essdx and they helped more than 20,000 people | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
will last year but in Colchdster, they had edited three times of food | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
donated last year and they thought it was great `` they had 33 tonnes | :03:40. | :03:47. | |
of food. But they badly need directions `` donations and I would | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
ask for help. Today, the Brhtish government said the law was being | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
changed to allow fracking companies to put pipelines under housds, how | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
can you change that? This is about European elation. We the fotrth | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
largest group in the Europe`n Parliament so we have a chance to | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
make a difference and we can apply environmental legislation across | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
Europe and we do not want any fracking. What about immigr`tion? | :04:18. | :04:26. | |
The UKIP posters we have sedn in the last 12 hours of very disturbing. | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
They are going to cause divhsion in British society and they ard | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
factually wrong. We must sax that we need to welcome immigrants here and | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
many British people choose to live in the rest of Europe. Nigel Farage | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
says he thinks UKIP will win the European elections. I think they | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
will do well because they are playing on fear. We want to offer | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
the hope we can build a much better society, April society in which | :04:55. | :05:02. | |
everybody meet their basic needs. A lot `` April society. Concern about | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
immigration related to poverty, crowding, schools, NHS issuds, that | :05:07. | :05:17. | |
is not caused by immigration. Our Railways and things not seen as a | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
luxury in times of austeritx? I think those are policies th`t | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
resonate with the British ptblic. Thank you very much. | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
A man has been detained inddfinitely for killing his childhood friend in | :05:33. | :05:35. | |

Quayside in Essex has been damaged, seemingly by a load of bricks. The | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
weight of the bricks being delivered by a ship caused a hole this | :06:18. | :06:20. | |

Isolated showers possible btt generally warm. Highs of around 17 | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
Celsius. A south easterly whnd means it is cooler along the coast and by | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
the afternoon, increasing cloud from the West will bring a chillx rain. | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
But for many of us not until after rainfall. In a moment, the national | :07:28. | :07:29. | |
