Welcome to South East Today. I'm Rob all from the BBC News at

:00:00.:00:00.

Welcome to South East Today. I'm Rob Smith.

:00:00.:00:00.

And I'm Polly Evans. Tonight's top stories.

:00:07.:00:09.

He gambled away his ?25,000 redundancy money on high`st`kes

:00:10.:00:14.

They are as dangerous as anx drug or any addiction.

Targeted online by a racist troll, police investigate abusive tweets

:00:25.:00:28.

sent to a Brighton Labour c`ndidate. Also in tonight's programme.

:00:29.:00:31.

The controversial plan to prevent new takeaways opening near schools

:00:32.:00:33.

in Medway, branded draconian by small`business leaders.

:00:34.:00:39.

We'll have the details live from Chatham.

:00:40.:00:41.

Lofty ambitions for Brighton's seafront as the council approves

:00:42.:00:44.

plans to borrow ?36 million to build the i360.

:00:45.:00:53.

Can't I just have one morning without you making a fuss?

:00:54.:00:58.

Making a drama of things. The former EastEnders star on a mission to help

:00:59.:01:01.

her pupils build confidence and self`esteem.

:01:02.:01:09.

Good evening. A man who lost his ?25,000 redundancy payment on

:01:10.:01:14.

high`stakes betting machines is tonight joining calls for them to be

:01:15.:01:18.

banned. Speaking exclusively to BBC South

:01:19.:01:21.

East, Martin Power from Ramsgate said it was like being addicted to a

:01:22.:01:25.

drug. Campaigners claim gamblers in Kent and Sussex lost more than 65

:01:26.:01:28.

million on fixed`odds betting terminals last year. However,

:01:29.:01:34.

bookmakers insist the machines are not in themselves addictive, and are

:01:35.:01:38.

bringing in new regulations to help combat problem gambling.

:01:39.:01:44.

After losing his job, Martin Power time and redundancy money on his

:01:45.:01:53.

hands. On a bad day, he would lose ?1200 in a single session. To be

:01:54.:02:01.

dragged in for a crack cocahne hit, I found it uncontrollable. When your

:02:02.:02:07.

money has gone, you can not wait to get on it gain. You cannot sleep,

:02:08.:02:14.

you go home and you are thinking of getting it back again the ndxt day,

:02:15.:02:19.

but it does not work that w`y. The machines and largely to bet ?10 in

:02:20.:02:24.

22nd. The Campaign for Fairdr Gambling claims and gamblers lost

:02:25.:02:30.

?30 million last year. In Stssex, the loss is 29 million. Hotspots

:02:31.:02:37.

include Medway, Barnet and Brighton. This is what happens when you allow

:02:38.:02:42.

casino gaming in accessible areas, you speak them up and make ht a

:02:43.:02:47.

solitary activity on a machhne, and people can stake up to ?200 every 20

:02:48.:02:52.

seconds, a lot more than anx other fruit machine. The maximum stake

:02:53.:02:59.

needs to come down to ?2 of. The machines can provoke strong

:03:00.:03:04.

reactions. The industry says the scale of losses is being

:03:05.:03:07.

exaggerated, based on crude estimate. Most people bet ?7 55 and

:03:08.:03:15.

play for 20 minutes. You have to keep it in perspective, we have 8

:03:16.:03:20.

million customers, the majority that safely and responsibly. Martin Power

:03:21.:03:26.

is in no doubt. Get rid of them completely, they are as dangerous as

:03:27.:03:30.

any drug or any addiction. Hf it works you and you are not brave

:03:31.:03:36.

enough to stop, you will end up with nothing. Martin knows some will say

:03:37.:03:42.

he has got himself to blame, but he wants temptation taken away from

:03:43.:03:46.

others. Why has Martin Power decided to

:03:47.:03:47.

speak out now? This is one of the many bookmakers

:03:48.:03:59.

that he used to frequent, btt not any more, because he has now got a

:04:00.:04:03.

voluntary ban from every bookies in Thanet. He is speaking out not

:04:04.:04:09.

because he wants sympathy, but because he wants to warn others The

:04:10.:04:13.

kids say they have introducdd a new code, you can set a maximum level of

:04:14.:04:20.

what you want to spend or the length of time you want to play. Btt Martin

:04:21.:04:24.

wants to see reduced steaks or even a ban. Tonight, the governmdnt is

:04:25.:04:29.

indicating it does not plan to go down that route.

:04:30.:04:32.

Police in Sussex are investhgating a series of racist tweets sent to a

:04:33.:04:35.

female politician in Brighton. Purna Sen, who lives in the city `nd is

:04:36.:04:39.

Labour's parliamentary candhdate for the Brighton Pavilion seat, was

:04:40.:04:41.

repeatedly abused on the social`networking site Twitter last

:04:42.:04:45.

week. Campaigners have renewed calls for tougher laws to protect victims

:04:46.:04:47.

of online abuse. She shares comments and ide`s on

:04:48.:04:59.

social networking sites, but last week, bonus and found herself the

:05:00.:05:04.

subject of a barrage of rachst tweet from a stranger. The person told her

:05:05.:05:11.

that she should go back to her own country, questioned why she was

:05:12.:05:14.

still here and her right to remain in the country. You put your head

:05:15.:05:21.

above the parapet and you go into public life, you expect somd people

:05:22.:05:25.

to attack you, and as a brown skinned person, that is going to be

:05:26.:05:30.

part of what I am going to face but it does not make it pleasant. You

:05:31.:05:36.

expect it, but you feel, my goodness, is this still going on?

:05:37.:05:40.

Celebrities and politicians are targets. Jonathan Ross's wife

:05:41.:05:47.

deleted her account this wedk after he became the target of abusive

:05:48.:05:51.

messages. Two people were j`iled in January after sending a femhnist

:05:52.:05:56.

writer death threats by Twitter The MP for Walthamstow received rape

:05:57.:06:01.

threats, leading to increashng pressure on the side to revhew its

:06:02.:06:06.

procedures for reporting abtse. There should be more legisl`tion, we

:06:07.:06:12.

believe that social media ottlets should produce an external `udit to

:06:13.:06:17.

measure the cyber`bullying. What happened as a result, and what

:06:18.:06:19.

action was taken. That should be publicly available. The MP has taken

:06:20.:06:28.

steps to stop further tweet from the same account. The police ard

:06:29.:06:32.

investigating. The identity and whereabouts of the offender is not

:06:33.:06:36.

straightforward online. Those who have fallen victim feel mord should

:06:37.:06:41.

be done. The harm, hurt and pain it causes should not be belittled, I

:06:42.:06:46.

would not advocate anybody `ccept this sort of abuse.

:06:47.:06:50.

In a moment. Blazing a trail for the new

:06:51.:06:52.

apprenticeship scheme, our ferry companies welcome the latest

:06:53.:06:53.

initiative. In an effort to tackle childhood

:06:54.:07:05.

obesity, Medway Council is to start a public consultation over proposals

:07:06.:07:08.

to ban takeaways opening ne`r schools. The area has one of the

:07:09.:07:14.

highest rates of obesity in the country, more than one in fhve

:07:15.:07:18.

ten`year`olds are classed as obese. After the idea was first mooted a

:07:19.:07:22.

year ago, the council wants to know what residents thing about tsing

:07:23.:07:25.

planning laws to stop new ottlets opening within 400 metres of

:07:26.:07:27.

schools. A lunchtime takeaway for thdse

:07:28.:07:40.

pupils, but soon, schools could find themselves surrounded with `n

:07:41.:07:42.

exclusion zone, banning new fast food outlets. Not a great idea, we

:07:43.:07:48.

should be able to make our own decisions, and it will not be

:07:49.:07:53.

helpful for local businesses. The only people who are allowed are our

:07:54.:07:57.

age, you are old enough to decide what you should eat. The owners will

:07:58.:08:03.

lose out on revenue, and we will lose out on our chip shop! The

:08:04.:08:09.

proposed move comes after it emerges 20% of children in Medway are obese.

:08:10.:08:14.

Planning policy could be altered to make it harder to put new t`keaways

:08:15.:08:18.

near schools or in places whth an already high volume of fast food

:08:19.:08:24.

shops. Medway Council will `pprove a month`long public consultathon on

:08:25.:08:28.

the idea. Where there is a great entity of fast food outlets close to

:08:29.:08:33.

schools, there is a greater incidence of obesity. We wotld not

:08:34.:08:38.

consider consulting on it if we did not think it would work. Kings

:08:39.:08:43.

Rochester is yards from the town's High Street. It is an interdsting

:08:44.:08:48.

idea, you look at most teen`gers, they are capable of making choices

:08:49.:08:52.

for themselves. Prohibition very rarely works. It is an extrdme

:08:53.:08:58.

measure. If the pupils are lature enough, they can make the ddcisions

:08:59.:09:03.

themselves. Whether it is the right thing to do to focus on restricting

:09:04.:09:06.

businesses rather than educ`ting young people first and stopping them

:09:07.:09:11.

from eating the wrong things is a question. Medway Council insists the

:09:12.:09:17.

measure would be just one p`rt of ongoing efforts to tackle the issue

:09:18.:09:22.

of obesity. The public now look set to have their say.

:09:23.:09:25.

You've spent the day in Medway, what have the takeaway businesses there

:09:26.:09:32.

had to say about this? They consider themselves to be the fall gty is in

:09:33.:09:37.

this debate. I have spoken to the Federation of Small Businesses in

:09:38.:09:43.

Kent, they think that proposals like this Draconian. They urged the

:09:44.:09:50.

council to remember positivd impact that these businesses have on the

:09:51.:09:53.

High Street, the money they generate and the jobs that they create. The

:09:54.:09:57.

council are adamant this will have an effect, it will reduce obesity,

:09:58.:10:01.

and they compare it to publhc of campaigns like the smoking ban and

:10:02.:10:05.

seat belts. A powerful Parliamentary colmittee

:10:06.:10:08.

says Sussex Police made a sdrious mistake when it issued an MP and

:10:09.:10:11.

former minister with a warnhng notice relating to a speech he made

:10:12.:10:16.

in the House of Commons. Thd Commons Privileges Committee found the force

:10:17.:10:19.

to be in contempt of Parlialent for issuing a Police Information Notice

:10:20.:10:22.

to the East Worthing and Shoreham MP Tim Loughton, who told the committee

:10:23.:10:25.

the force's actions had caused considerable stress.

:10:26.:10:36.

There has been a long enquiry, it has taken up a lot of time `nd

:10:37.:10:41.

taxpayers' resources, and the police have been found in serious breach of

:10:42.:10:45.

parliamentary privilege, a serious right to make sure that MPs can go

:10:46.:10:48.

about their job without fear or favour. There are serious qtestions

:10:49.:10:54.

to be answered, I hope therd will be a review.

:10:55.:10:56.

A 21`year`old man has been `rrested at Gatwick Airport on suspicion of

:10:57.:10:59.

receiving terrorist training abroad. The suspect was held after he got

:11:00.:11:03.

off a flight from Istanbul this afternoon. He was held on stspicion

:11:04.:11:07.

of an offence under Section Six of the Terrorism Act.

:11:08.:11:09.

The controversial multi`million`pound i360 project for

:11:10.:11:12.

Brighton seafront has been given the green light. In the last hotr,

:11:13.:11:18.

councillors agreed to doubld the amount of money they want to borrow

:11:19.:11:21.

from the Government. Planning permission for the 600`foot`tall

:11:22.:11:24.

tower was given seven years ago but the project hit the buffers when a

:11:25.:11:27.

major private backer pulled out last autumn.

:11:28.:11:35.

We would not have done this if we did not think this was a very good

:11:36.:11:39.

option. My view is that the financial risk is greater if we did

:11:40.:11:43.

nothing, because the structtres are coming to the end of their life we

:11:44.:11:49.

have got a repair bill, this is the only option on the table th`t will

:11:50.:11:55.

generate money. This looks as if it is actu`lly

:11:56.:12:00.

going to happen, when are wd likely to see the i360 being built? As far

:12:01.:12:05.

as the developers and counchllors are concerned, this was the last

:12:06.:12:09.

hurdle, they hope that work will get under way in the next three months

:12:10.:12:12.

and that the tower will be open by June 2016. What was agreed today was

:12:13.:12:19.

a loan of ?36 million from ` central government pot, administered by the

:12:20.:12:24.

council. They hope it will bring up to ?25 million the local economy,

:12:25.:12:30.

humming from the estimated 750, 00 visitors it is expected to bring in

:12:31.:12:35.

every year. But the scheme still has its critics. Yes, it was voted

:12:36.:12:41.

through here in the council chamber and our ago, it split the

:12:42.:12:44.

Conservative group and the Labour Party are posted. They disptte that

:12:45.:12:48.

the visitor numbers can be maintained. Even if it is money

:12:49.:12:53.

coming from the central govdrnment, they say, it is still taxpaxers

:12:54.:12:57.

money that is at risk. This is our top story tonight.

:12:58.:13:06.

A man who lost ?25,000 on hhgh stakes betting machines has joined

:13:07.:13:09.

calls for them to be banned. Martin Power said it was like being

:13:10.:13:14.

addicted to a drug. Campaigners say gamblers here lost more than six to

:13:15.:13:19.

?5 million on fixed odds betting terminals last year.

:13:20.:13:22.

Also in tonight's programme. Charlton are one victory aw`y from a

:13:23.:13:26.

Wembley semifinal, two victories away from the FA Cup final.

:13:27.:13:32.

Later, I will tell you about my new drama courses here in Kent.

:13:33.:13:35.

If you have a story you think we should be covering on South East

:13:36.:13:39.

Today, we'd like to hear from you. You can call us on 0845 300 37 7,

:13:40.:13:43.

or send us an e`mail to [email protected]. Wd are

also on Facebook, or you can tweet us, @bbcsoutheast.

:13:47.:13:52.

Ferry companies in Kent are welcoming an announcement that ship

:13:53.:13:56.

ratings, doing roles in enghneering, navigation, catering and others

:13:57.:13:59.

will be included as one of the Governments Trailblazer

:14:00.:14:04.

apprenticeships. It's billed as a new kind of apprenticeship training

:14:05.:14:06.

to meet standards required by employers. Last year, half ` million

:14:07.:14:11.

people started an apprenticdship. That's up more than 200,000 on a

:14:12.:14:15.

couple of years ago. The Government hopes that by 2018 all new

:14:16.:14:17.

apprenticeships will be Trailblazers.

:14:18.:14:32.

A young man learning his tr`de on an apprenticeship scheme aboard a

:14:33.:14:38.

cross`channel ferry. In this case, the teacher is also his father. It

:14:39.:14:47.

is an easier way to learn, people learning in the classrooms `re not

:14:48.:14:50.

doing the job, but if you are doing the job, you will be better at it.

:14:51.:14:56.

In this job, you need to be hands`on, you cannot learn hn a

:14:57.:15:00.

classroom. You need to be ott here with the crew that you are working

:15:01.:15:07.

with. This is one of the colpanies offering Trailblazer

:15:08.:15:15.

apprenticeships. I am trainhng to become an able seaman. He w`s at

:15:16.:15:18.

Downing Street today with the Chancellor, he talked about the new

:15:19.:15:25.

scheme. This is the employers getting involved with us, s`ying,

:15:26.:15:32.

this is what you need, which means a lot to the apprentices, you know

:15:33.:15:35.

what you are learning is relevant to the jobs that you are doing.

:15:36.:15:39.

Apprenticeship schemes are ` great alternative to college, not

:15:40.:15:43.

everybody wants to go to college, this is an agility to get into a

:15:44.:15:47.

career for life, to learn a new skill and to get yourself onto a

:15:48.:15:57.

fantastic career. Brandon hopes the apprenticeships will help hhm

:15:58.:15:59.

achieve his dream of captaining a ferry within a decade. The

:16:00.:16:04.

government hopes it will increase the quality of apprenticeshhps and,

:16:05.:16:08.

as they put it, but employers in the driving seat.

:16:09.:16:15.

Over the last few years, a fishmonger's in East Sussex has been

:16:16.:16:19.

steadily building its reput`tion for providing really good fish. Now all

:16:20.:16:24.

the hard work put in by Veasey and Sons in Forest Row could be

:16:25.:16:27.

recognised with a national `ward. They pride themselves on getting the

:16:28.:16:30.

freshest produce they can, `nd judges, including the formidable

:16:31.:16:32.

MasterChef critic Charles C`mpion, have short listed them for BBC Radio

:16:33.:16:34.

4's Food Retailer of the Ye`r. They are sticking their nosds into

:16:35.:16:49.

this fishy business, the judges are here from BBC Radio 4 to sed whether

:16:50.:16:53.

these young sons should be named food retailer of the year. One of

:16:54.:16:57.

those who will decide is Ch`rles Campion from MasterChef, he thinks

:16:58.:17:01.

this fishmonger 's is doing a great job, as he believes we have a tricky

:17:02.:17:06.

relationship with seafood. Hn our hearts, we crave having it battered

:17:07.:17:12.

or as a fish finger. It is ` pity, properly prepared fish is one of the

:17:13.:17:15.

great treat. We know we shotld be eating better things, this hs a

:17:16.:17:20.

better thing. That is why fhshmonger 's are imported. Easy and Sons has

:17:21.:17:26.

become an institution here. But the successful business has been far

:17:27.:17:29.

from immune to the recent b`d weather. Fewer fish being c`ught

:17:30.:17:35.

means higher prices. Increases of between 30 to 40%. The less there is

:17:36.:17:42.

of one Fish, the more peopld will pay at market, which dictatds our

:17:43.:17:46.

price. People noticed a price rise, but they were understanding.

:17:47.:17:51.

Sometimes, my husband will say, wow, and I say, divide that by two or

:17:52.:17:57.

four, if we are having people for a meal, it is no more expensive than

:17:58.:18:02.

meat. The business has its own boat, but the bad weather h`s

:18:03.:18:07.

limited its days at sea, and the boat is currently out of thd water.

:18:08.:18:11.

Since Christmas, it has been hard to get a decent amount of a regular

:18:12.:18:16.

supply of fish, the prices have gone up, because we have been having to

:18:17.:18:20.

purchase fish from Iceland `nd Norway. The only way is up, things

:18:21.:18:26.

are going to get better. Thd good weather lifts the spirits, `nd if it

:18:27.:18:30.

continues, it will help the business. A food award would not

:18:31.:18:34.

help's not hurt, either. And you can hear more about the

:18:35.:18:38.

judges' visit on BBC Radio 4's You And Yours programme on Frid`y, after

:18:39.:18:44.

midday. She's the former EastEnder whose

:18:45.:18:47.

on`screen death was one of the programme's most talked`abott

:18:48.:18:51.

storylines for years. Now, Cheryl Fergison, who played Heather Trott,

:18:52.:18:54.

is putting her Albert Squard experiences to good use, setting up

:18:55.:18:56.

her own drama school in Kent. What can I get you? She bec`me a

:18:57.:19:15.

household name playing Heather Trott, but today, Cheryl Fergison

:19:16.:19:19.

was being upstaged by the ptpils here. I'd used to be on East

:19:20.:19:22.

Enders, accessible to those less well off. I

:19:23.:19:58.

would live to give those pl`ces free to people who can not afford to go.

:19:59.:20:03.

At the moment, I am tweeting like mad, I cannot tell you, to try and

:20:04.:20:09.

get companies on board and individuals who would like to

:20:10.:20:13.

sponsor a dog person for a week `` sponsor a young person. I al from a

:20:14.:20:19.

family who cannot afford expensive courses, and this would givd me a

:20:20.:20:25.

lot of help. This student ndeds an extension on her feminist poetry

:20:26.:20:31.

essay. Cheryl has got some `dvice for the next generation of stars. Be

:20:32.:20:36.

prepared to be knocked down 90% of the time and be prepared to get up

:20:37.:20:42.

again and say, I will go to the next audition, and I will keep going I

:20:43.:20:47.

will find out what it is yot want, and I will give it to you. She is

:20:48.:20:54.

still putting smiles on facds. Kent's golden girl Lizzy Yarnold,

:20:55.:20:57.

who won Britain's only gold medal at the Winter Olympics, has bedn

:20:58.:21:00.

granted an open`top bus par`de in her honour. The parade for the

:21:01.:21:04.

25`year`old skeleton athletd will take place on Friday 21st M`rch

:21:05.:21:07.

beginning in Sevenoaks and dnding in her home village of West Kingsdown.

:21:08.:21:14.

And after Lizzy was given the honour of flag bearing at the Wintdr

:21:15.:21:19.

Olympics closing ceremony, the South East is to get another flag bearer,

:21:20.:21:22.

this time at the Paralympic Games in Sochi. 15`year`old Millie Knight,

:21:23.:21:25.

who is Britain's youngest`ever Paralympian, will carry the flag at

:21:26.:21:29.

the opening ceremony tomorrow. The visually`impaired Canterburx

:21:30.:21:31.

schoolgirl will be competing in the skiing.

:21:32.:21:40.

This morning, I was told I had a meeting, I was not sure what it was

:21:41.:21:44.

about at all. I thought, and I in trouble? I was in the meeting and

:21:45.:21:50.

they were like, as you might be aware, the opening ceremony is

:21:51.:21:54.

tomorrow, and we would like you to be our flag bearer. It was `mazing!

:21:55.:21:58.

Quite a facial expression! Charlton Athletic are just one

:21:59.:22:01.

victory away from a Wembley semifinal, ` and two wins from the

:22:02.:22:04.

FA Cup final itself. Over 5,000 fans, many from the South E`st, will

:22:05.:22:08.

be going to Sheffield United on Sunday for their quarterfin`l tie.

:22:09.:22:17.

The shorts were back here and the commentators less passionatd,

:22:18.:22:24.

perhaps, but Charlton's 1947 FA Cup success remains a high point. The

:22:25.:22:28.

trophy retains its indefinable magic to this day. I am frightened to

:22:29.:22:36.

touch it! There is a big gale to negotiate before we can talk about

:22:37.:22:40.

Wembley or the semifinals. Ht is a tough game. But I think it hs a

:22:41.:22:45.

wonderful competition, I always have done. People of my age and older,

:22:46.:22:51.

you grew up on that game, the showpiece game of the season. The

:22:52.:22:55.

Charlton players have struggled for much of this season and are aware

:22:56.:22:58.

how important victory on Sunday would be. It would be huge. This

club has been through the mhll in the last five, ten years, coming out

of the Premier League and down to League One. We are on the w`y back

:23:12.:23:15.

now, and it would be a reward to all the fans for their loyalty. It is 67

:23:16.:23:21.

years since Charlton last triumphed in the FA Cup final. It still

matters, but only if they avoid relegation. I would not want to see

:23:27.:23:30.

Charlton go down under any circumstances, that includes the

:23:31.:23:36.

cup. I was there in 1947, I was 16. I enjoyed it, although it w`s not a

:23:37.:23:44.

brilliant game. It is an important cup, definitely. It is big,

:23:45.:23:50.

moneywise. We realise that. But at the moment, we are down the bottom

:23:51.:23:54.

of the league, and these gales have to be put in hand. It may bd some

:23:55.:24:00.

time before Charlton win thd cup again, but a trip to Wemblex is

:24:01.:24:08.

definitely on the cards. You would not have thought this a

it has been a really lovely. Sunny, warm, dry.
