Baltacha. We report from Ipswich on a new generation of hopefuls

:00:31.:00:33.

inspired by Britain's former number one. 16 days until the elections and

:00:34.:00:38.

most young people probably won't bother to vote. We ask them why.

:00:39.:00:48.

There is a lot of broken promises. I feel as if it will just be me

:00:49.:00:52.

voting. I feel like my vote will make any sort of difference. And I

:00:53.:01:00.

will have a weather forecast from Oundle, head of a historic day for

:01:01.:01:08.

:01:09.:01:12.

diocese. The Bishop told her "The Only Way Is Essex", as he extolled

:01:16.:01:20.

the virtues of his area. The Queen's visit to Chelmsford

Cathedral was the focal point of events to mark the centenarx of the

second biggest diocese in the country and stretches well hnto East

London. The Queen was accompanied by the Duke of Edinburgh. Our reporter

hundreds waited patiently. Among those in the crowd this morning,

:02:14.:02:15.

Marion Gardiner, whose ten`xear`old Marion Gardiner, whose ten`year`old

:02:16.:02:18.

son is singing with the chohr today. My little grandson is a chorister.

:02:19.:02:21.

He is singing today. I am very proud. 600 guests were invited

:02:22.:02:37.

today. There must have been a lot of preparations. Another Mac all

:02:38.:02:41.

goodness me, you have never seen anything like it. There is a

:02:42.:02:44.

anything like it. There is ` fantastic buzz about the place.

:02:45.:02:49.

Finally, the moment they had been waiting for. The Queen and the Duke

:02:50.:02:53.

of Edinburgh made their way to the cathedral plus Pack West door.

:02:54.:03:02.

Pasternak `` the cathedrals West door. The Bishop joked that "the

:03:03.:03:18.

only way is Essex" . The diocese is the second largest in the country

:03:19.:03:23.

and so 100 years ago it was part of somebody else's even larger diocese.

:03:24.:03:29.

After the service, the Queen emerged to be greeted by hundreds of

:03:30.:03:35.

well`wishers. And for the King family, waiting since 6am this

:03:36.:03:37.

morning, their patience was rewarded. She smiled at us and said

her diamond jubilee year. Today, the her diamond jubilee year. Today the

:03:50.:03:59.

people of the city said thank you. Tributes have continued to pour in

:04:00.:04:02.

today for the Suffolk tennis star Elena Baltacha, who died at the

:04:03.:04:06.

weekend from liver cancer at the age of 30. Judy Murray said she was "an

sports reporter James Burridge is there now.

:04:18.:04:29.

Welcome to the Rushmere SportsCenter. If you can sed around

:04:30.:04:34.

SportsCenter. If you can see around me now, the landscape has

:04:35.:04:38.

dramatically changed. These are the facilities which the Academy

dramatically changed. These are the facilities which the Academx is

facilities which the Academy is hoping to use over the next few

:04:40.:04:42.

months and years. Allow's p`ssing months and years. Allow's passing

:04:43.:04:46.

has been a huge shock to so many people here. I have been lucky

:04:47.:04:49.

enough to know her first five years now. She was a huge warrior on the

:04:50.:04:53.

court of and a friend to so many of it.

:04:54.:05:00.

She was one of life 's fighters. Bally knew no other way. Ipswich has

:05:01.:05:08.

been Elena Baltacha's home since the late 80s. It is where her ldgacy

:05:09.:05:12.

late 80s. It is where her legacy will be seen in action. Herd, at her

:05:13.:05:14.

will be seen in action. Here, at her Academy. I will never forget the

:05:15.:05:23.

day... She was obviously very ill, and she still took the time out to

:05:24.:05:27.

ring my doctor, to see how she got on in her competition. She

:05:28.:05:33.

represented Suffolk. Yeah, that was Bally all over. Just such an

:05:34.:05:40.

inspirational person. Nino Severino wanted to get the girls and boys

:05:41.:05:44.

onto the stage, and Elena Baltacha onto the stage, and Elena B`ltacha

:05:45.:05:51.

too, that was her life was like work. Newell and the other coaches.

:05:52.:06:02.

Many will remember Elena Baltacha the competitor. But develophng the

:06:03.:06:06.

the competitor. But developing the next generation was her new project,

:06:07.:06:28.

her passion. We did 13 recognition mark `` I want to give back to

British tennis. I want to ghve mark `` I want to give back to

:06:31.:06:33.

:06:37.:06:36.

given me. I want to see thel with a flourish and become champions of the

:06:37.:06:43.

future. Following Baltacha onto was both entertaining and affecting

:06:44.:06:52.

Every game mattered. The fact that she did this for 16 years whilst

:06:53.:06:56.

battling serious injury and a chronic liver condition is a

:06:57.:06:59.

testament to her character, conviction, and commitment. So where

:07:00.:07:07.

does healing at's death leave the Academy project that she started?

:07:08.:07:09.

Academy project that she st`rted? Well the big focus for the Academy

:07:10.:07:12.

Well the big focus for the @cademy and the Baltacha family is this

:07:13.:07:17.

rally that is taking place on June 15 in the run`up to Wimbledon the

:07:18.:07:20.

summer. It is the mixed doubles exhibition match. It will feature

:07:21.:07:25.

exhibition match. It will fdature the likes of Andy Murray, Tim

:07:26.:07:32.

Henman, Martina Navratilova, all trying to raise money for cancer

charities. They are hoping a huge amount of money can be raisdd. It

:07:42.:07:42.

amount of money can be raised. It was only a few months ago that I

:07:43.:07:45.

spoke to her about her retirement and she seemed so positive `bout her

:07:46.:07:48.

and she seemed so positive about her retirement. This all seems to have

:07:49.:07:51.

happened with shocking speed. Yes, she retired this year. She larried

:07:52.:07:55.

she retired this year. She married in December. She was diagnosed with

:07:56.:08:01.

liver cancer in March. She kept fighting. She knew no other way She

:08:02.:08:05.

battled with such passion. She was the complete warrior on the tennis

:08:06.:08:09.

court, and I think people are now starting to realise just how much

:08:10.:08:12.

she was taking on privately. I think this liver condition was such a

:08:13.:08:17.

hurdle for her to overcome. She had such fantastic support from those

:08:18.:08:19.

around her. And for her to achieve around her. And for her to `chieve

:08:20.:08:24.

what she did achieve, those were incredible achievements, and ones

:08:25.:08:26.

which will be remembered with huge fondness here in Ipswich.

:08:27.:08:35.

Absolutely. Thank you very luch The investigation into the murder of

:08:36.:08:38.

Una Crown in her own home is being re`launched with a new team of

:08:39.:08:41.

detectives. The 86`year`old was found dead in Wisbech in January

:08:42.:08:44.

last year. She'd been repeatedly stabbed and then set on fire in

last year. She'd been repeatedly stabbed and then set on fird in an

:08:47.:08:46.

stabbed and then set on fire in an attempt to destroy evidence. Her

:08:47.:08:54.

killer has never been caught. Over the last few weeks we've talked

:08:55.:08:57.

a lot about the European eldctions but there is another campaign also

:08:58.:09:00.

underway. Local elections are being held in 20 authorities in the region

:09:01.:09:04.

` here they all are ` anywhdre coloured blue or red is under

:09:05.:09:06.

coloured blue or red is unddr Conservative or Labour control. Grey

:09:07.:09:07.

means no one party has overall means no one party has over`ll

:09:08.:09:10.

control. One of the most interesting battles is in Great Yarmouth where

:09:11.:09:14.

Labour has a majority of just one seat. Our political Correspondent

:09:15.:09:16.

Andrew Sinclair reports. Along the great Yarmouth se`front,

:09:17.:09:17.

Along the great Yarmouth seafront, there is no shortage of places

:09:18.:09:20.

offering the chance to strike it lucky. Which is what the local

:09:21.:09:24.

council here needs to do. For several years now, the authority has

:09:25.:09:27.

received some of the lowest grants in the country from the govdrnment.

:09:28.:09:30.

It has to find ?10 million of savings over three years.

:09:31.:09:33.

It is just not fair funding, basically. So yeah, we do think we

:09:34.:09:37.

have been dealt a bad hand. But why can't you be more efficient?

:09:38.:09:40.

Other councils seem to manage. We are being more efficient but you

:09:41.:09:42.

have got to bear in mind th`t We are being more efficient but you

:09:43.:09:44.

have got to bear in mind that we have got to bear in mind th`t we

:09:45.:09:46.

have taken the biggest hit hn the United Kingdom. Other councils have

:09:47.:09:49.

actually had percentage increases and we have had a cut of 44$.

:09:50.:09:54.

Labour is making this the main issue in the local election. And what

:09:55.:09:58.

makes it more noteworthy is that the minister who has cut Yarmouth 's

:09:59.:10:01.

grants is the local MP Brandon Lewis. The Conservatives who used to

:10:02.:10:04.

run this authority said the funding formula was altered by the last

:10:05.:10:08.

Labour government. Mr Lewis has found extra money to help the

:10:09.:10:12.

council they say but in turn it needs to be more efficient.

:10:13.:10:16.

We have a chief executive officer on a chief executive officer on

:10:17.:10:19.

?110,000 per year. Why? We could share that office with another

:10:20.:10:22.

council and halve that bill. We could halve the cost of the senior

:10:23.:10:25.

council officers, which would save in the region of ?250,000 per year,

:10:26.:10:29.

and then we could look at other services where we can share those

:10:30.:10:32.

services. Here at the town Hall, all the seats

:10:33.:10:36.

are held by either the Conservatives or the Labour Party, and at the

:10:37.:10:38.

moment Labour has a majoritx or the Labour Party, and at the

:10:39.:10:39.

moment Labour has a majority of one. moment Labour has a majoritx of one.

:10:40.:10:42.

So you might expect the seldction to be a straightforward, two`horse

:10:43.:10:45.

race, but there is a third party that is threatening to upset the

:10:46.:10:49.

apple cart. In last year's county council elections, UKIP won five

:10:50.:10:52.

seats here and came second hn four others. The party says the lack of

:10:53.:11:00.

decent housing is also a big issue, and voters are looking for something

:11:01.:11:02.

different. We are not professional polhticians.

:11:03.:11:07.

Don't expect a polished performance from many of our guys, because we

:11:08.:11:09.

from many of our guys, becatse we are members of the community

:11:10.:11:10.

from many of our guys, because we are members of the communitx that

:11:11.:11:12.

have taken it upon ourselves to put us in front of the electorate, to

:11:13.:11:16.

try and resolve those issues that have perhaps been party polhtical.

:11:17.:11:18.

have perhaps been party political. The Liberal Democrats are not

:11:19.:11:21.

fielding a single candidate in Great Yarmouth this year, so the Greens

:11:22.:11:23.

are hoping that they will be able Yarmouth this year, so the Greens

:11:24.:11:25.

are hoping that they will bd able to are hoping that they will be able to

:11:26.:11:26.

replicate their success in nearby Norwich and start winning sdats here

:11:27.:11:31.

as well. People are fed up with the same old

:11:32.:11:34.

parties, and actually looking for a positive change in the community,

:11:35.:11:36.

positive change in the commtnity, especially on a local level. And

:11:37.:11:39.

actually wanting people to listen to them, and I think they are very much

:11:40.:11:43.

tired of the very poor representation in their local areas.

:11:44.:11:46.

If either of the smaller parties can stage a raid here, they could

:11:47.:11:49.

dramatically affect the outcome of this election. But with so lany

:11:50.:11:52.

financial pressures, whoever ends up running this authority could well

:11:53.:11:55.

find it a rather lonely bushness. Andrew Sinclair, BBC Look East,

:11:56.:11:56.

Great Yarmouth. Still to cole Andrew Sinclair, BBC Look E`st,

:11:57.:12:12.

Great Yarmouth. Still to cole and look case tonight. The Essex school

:12:13.:12:16.

praised for its top of the class performance. And we are getting

:12:17.:12:19.

ready to greet the world's best women cyclists.

:12:20.:12:25.

Well, as we've just heard, voters go to the polls in 16 days to elect new

:12:26.:12:27.

to the polls in 16 days to dlect new local councillors. The outcome may

:12:28.:12:30.

be uncertain in some areas, but there's one thing we can cotnt on:

:12:31.:12:34.

the number of young people turning out to cast their vote is likely

:12:35.:12:36.

the number of young people turning out to cast their vote is lhkely to

:12:37.:12:37.

be very low. At the last general election almost

:12:38.:12:39.

six out of ten voters aged tp At the last general election almost

:12:40.:12:41.

six out of ten voters aged up to 24 six out of ten voters aged up to 24

:12:42.:12:43.

didn't bother voting. The fhgure at local elections is even lower than

:12:44.:12:47.

that. So with so many policies affecting younger people like

:12:48.:12:50.

tuition fees, housing and the minimum wage, why don't mord young

:12:51.:12:51.

minimum wage, why don't more young people get involved? Tonight's

:12:52.:12:59.

special report is from Dawn Gerber. Two young people. Passionate

special report is from Dawn Gerber. Two young people. Passionatd about

Two young people. Passionate about where they live but have never

voted. # I come from a small place where

:13:21.:13:21.

got enough facilities. You've got a youth club here but I

:13:22.:13:22.

You've got a youth club herd but I don't feel like it caters for say

:13:23.:13:30.

the 15 to 18`year`olds. I just feel that there needs to be change. I

:13:31.:13:33.

mean something for them to do. But Ipswich has seen changes.

:13:34.:13:37.

Millions have been spent on the waterfront and there is a ndw

:13:38.:13:40.

university drawing young people to the town. Like 21`year`old Dsther.

:13:41.:13:48.

the town. Like 21`year`old Esther. She moved from London two ydars ago

:13:49.:13:52.

to do a bioscience degree. As a university student, yot

:13:53.:13:53.

to do a bioscience degree. As a university student, you feel

:13:54.:13:53.

As a university student, yot feel quite separated from the community,

:13:54.:13:55.

quite separated from the colmunity, and that the university is our

:13:56.:13:56.

community. In the last local elections, around

:13:57.:14:00.

one in three of under 24`year`olds voted. Compared to three qu`rters

:14:01.:14:01.

one in three of under 24`ye`r`olds voted. Compared to three quarters of

:14:02.:14:03.

over 65`year`olds. I think it is fair to say that if

:14:04.:14:07.

you, in an election, decide to leave the decision to others, you can't

:14:08.:14:09.

the decision to others, you can t then really complain afterwards when

:14:10.:14:12.

their choice means an impact on you directly.

:14:13.:14:14.

I think that schools and colleges could do more to engage us. To get

:14:15.:14:18.

us to come in and talk to young people about what councils do.

:14:19.:14:24.

So today we have brought Pablo and Esther together with a group of

:14:25.:14:26.

young people to meet the guy who young people to meet the guy who

:14:27.:14:31.

runs their counsel. But we want to know why they are unlikely to vote.

:14:32.:14:35.

There are a lot of... I don't want to call it broken promises, but

:14:36.:14:40.

there are a lot of broken promises. In my mind I would be thinkhng that

:14:41.:14:44.

it is just me voting so then I am thinking that there might not be no

:14:45.:14:47.

change anyway. I feel as though my fault isn't

:14:48.:14:49.

going to make any sort of difference going to make any sort of dhfference

:14:50.:14:52.

or the local electorates all take orders from their MPs in Parliament.

:14:53.:14:59.

If politicians are looking `t making unpopular decisions, where cuts are

:15:00.:15:02.

going to go, they will targdted to the people who don't vote, because

:15:03.:15:07.

that won't affect their jobs. So if you don't want to be targeted by

:15:08.:15:09.

you don't want to be targetdd by politicians, we know there are

:15:10.:15:10.

you don't want to be targeted by politicians, we know there `re still

:15:11.:15:11.

politicians, we know there are still cuts going to be coming, yot

:15:12.:15:12.

politicians, we know there `re still cuts going to be coming, you need to

:15:13.:15:13.

cuts going to be coming, yot need to go out and vote.

:15:14.:15:14.

We don't necessarily feel like go out and vote.

:15:15.:15:16.

We don't necessarily feel lhke we We don't necessarily feel lhke we

:15:17.:15:18.

are part of the Ipswich comlunity. We feel like we are our own separate

:15:19.:15:20.

community. We are working closely with the

:15:21.:15:24.

university to see what more we can do.

:15:25.:15:26.

How would you how would you look to support young mums that are trying

:15:27.:15:30.

to get careers and back into work, that are going out for interviews

:15:31.:15:33.

and getting told, sorry, you're not flexible enough?

:15:34.:15:37.

What we are looking to do is increase the amount of free

:15:38.:15:39.

childcare that we would provide. childcare that we would provide.

:15:40.:15:43.

We talked for an hour. But did it change anything?

:15:44.:15:46.

I am definitely going to look into it, because if there is something

:15:47.:15:48.

it, because if there is somdthing that affects me, to then not vote

:15:49.:15:50.

about it, I think it will bd that affects me, to then not vote

:15:51.:15:52.

about it, I think it will be quite about it, I think it will bd quite

:15:53.:15:55.

silly. This campus will be used as a

:15:56.:15:56.

polling station, giving thousands of polling station, giving thousands of

:15:57.:16:00.

students a very local place to cast their votes. The question is, how

:16:01.:16:04.

many will bother? Dawn Gerbdr, BBC Look East, Ipswich.

Well, we're staying with young people for a moment, becausd

where a lot of teachers are not very pleased to see you. I have generally

:17:02.:17:06.

found that when I come to schools, the conversations I have with

:17:07.:17:09.

teachers are friendly and constructive. There has been a bit

:17:10.:17:13.

of industrial action in schools, yes, but the release tracking thing

:17:14.:17:17.

is that the majority of teachers have gone to work, the majority of

:17:18.:17:20.

unions want to work, and we are really lucky that the overwhelming

:17:21.:17:26.

majority of teachers in our schools are doing a fantastic job. Teachers

country. A few years ago, only a quarter of pupils used to get five

:18:01.:18:05.

GCSEs at the top grades. Now it is three quarters. We have teachers who

:18:06.:18:11.

are passionate about their subject, they are passionate about young

people, and they give above and beyond. There is so this myth that
