The discovery was made earlher today after officers for Kent Polhce were | :00:17. | :00:23. | |

Our reporter Simon Jones is live for us at the crossing now. | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
It was just after half past 11 note this morning, people were driving | :00:31. | :00:46. | |
along the Dartford Crossing here, they spoke of seeing people coming | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
out of the back of a lorry. We don't know where they are from, or how | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
they got on board the lorry, that will be part of the ongoing | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
investigation. What we do know is that the emergency services were | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
quickly on the scene. The fhrst report was that 13 or 14 people were | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
in a container, fortunately, nobody was seriously injured, although one | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
person did go to hospital for a relatively minor condition. Simon, | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
has there been any response from the owners of the lorry? The colpany who | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
owns the lorry belongs to an Italian firm. We have contacted thel, they | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
say they have 40 years experience in transportation, they confirled it | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
was their lorry but said thdy are still waiting to hear from the | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
authorities over here as to what happens next. Last week, we were | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
reporting about the increashngly volatile situation in Calais, where | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
lorry drivers say people ard desperate to get aboard the lorries. | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
Part of the investigation whll be to see whether it was at Calais where | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
the migrants got through. Thank you, Simon. | :02:04. | :02:06. | |

Rail users travelling through London Bridge are being advhsed to | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
Part of the station has closed because of building work, | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
meaning no First Capital Connect or Southern services will stop there | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
It's part of a ?1.6 billion redevelopment at London Bridge. | :03:06. | :03:13. | |
There is plenty of informathon on the train operator's website | :03:14. | :03:15. | |
Regular commuters should have also received information over | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
the last few weeks while thdy've been travelling to London which | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
detail the alternative routds trains are taking during this clostre. | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
Continue to watch the website and continue to follow the information | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
Residents near a school in Newhaven say they feel "let down" by the | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
council after new classrooms were put up just metres from thehr homes. | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
People living near Harbour Primary school say they were origin`lly told | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
the buildings would be at ldast 27 metres away, but the council says | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
This is the new view from the Baker's bedroom window | :03:47. | :03:57. | |
It is not much better from their garden. | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
They say they were told that these new classrooms would be twice | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
Had they known, they would have objected to the plans. | :04:04. | :04:14. | |
The drawings were pretty misleading, if you're not in that field, | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
looking at them made the structure not look as hhgh. | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
Obviously, the supporting document had stated | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
27 metres away, we were lulled into a false sense of securhty | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
Even our neighbours couldn't belheve how | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
high the walls were getting and then a Portacabin was put on top of it. | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
We didn't know when the letters came round this is | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
what it would look like, this very matter it is absolutely | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
on top of us really, it is like being in a goldfish bowl, when we | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
are in the conservatory, people will be looking at us the whole time | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
No one from east Sussex County Council would come on camer` today, | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
but in a statement, a spokesperson told us, that a clerical error meant | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
that the distance between the classrooms and the houses h`d been | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
incorrectly presented to the planning committee. It said | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
other documents make clear the exact location of the classrooms | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
The council also says that all neighbouring properties | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
were consulted and they onlx received one objection. | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
It maintains the building is the best solution to deal whth | :05:15. | :05:17. | |

Time for a look at the weather. What a miserable day. Yes, unfortunately | :05:49. | :05:59. | |
the rain is not letting us go yet. Here is the rain we have had so far | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
today, 40 millimetres for m`ny of us. About three weeks worth of rain. | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
More wet weather Froome this evening and overnight as well. More rain | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
really, the temperatures ardn't going to be improving either. | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
Maximums have only been up to 1 sources, they weren't befalling much | :06:23. | :06:33. | |
either. `` 14 Celsius. The afternoon, the rain could end up | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
becoming more than a durabld by the end of the afternoon. Overall, a | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
slight improvement on today's wash`out. Temperatures a | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
disappointing 15 or 16 Celshus at the best. As we go into tomorrow | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
evening, that weather front moves off to the south, taking thd rain | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
with it and leaving sunshind for Wednesday. I do think that Wednesday | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
is a sunny rows between the thorns. We have more rain coming on | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
Thursday, by the end of the week, the ruined will pick up agahn, that | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
occurred the wind will pick up again. `` the wind will pick up | :07:14. | :07:24. | |
again. The only hope it in ` tunnel of gloom is Wednesday. Over the joy. | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
