Good evening from South Today. In tonight's programme: Up the goodbye | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
incentive. The enhanced redundancy scheme to encourage more senior | :00:11. | :00:16. | |
managers to quit a local authority. They have earned that money. They | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
are going to forgo it for four years. I think it is disgraceful. | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
At a time when we are all having to tighten our belts, they decide they | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
will spend all his money. Fighting a tide of destruction. The | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
environmental impact of a sewage bill in a river. | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
Remembering the man who ensured if the British fleet sailed to the aid | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
of the Falklands. If he had not been in a boat, one has to wonder | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
whether we would have retaken the Falklands. Is this the meanest | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
bowler in world cricket? Come the last ball, I bowled it, and the | :00:55. | :01:05. | |
:01:05. | :01:11. | ||
batsman missed. Good evening. South Today has | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
discovered a Hampshire County Council is paying an enhanced | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
redundancy package to encourage more staff to leave the authority | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
now. The authority is looking to lose 150 senior managers and 1500 | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
more staff. The council has set aside �10 million from its reserves | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
to pay for the scheme. So far, the bill for managers alone is �7 | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
million. Hampshire says cutting management posts will save around | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
�36 million over the next four years. The upfront costs are worth | :01:42. | :01:50. | |
it. Here is our political reporter. Staff here face losing their jobs | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
to save the council money. To avoid forcing people out of work, those | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
to go voluntarily will get better redundancy deals. Take a 50-year- | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
old who has worked at the Council for 15 years and who earns a salary | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
of �75,000. That is about the average racing manager. Under the | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
basic scheme, he would get �8,000. Under the County Council scheme, | :02:15. | :02:22. | |
that would go up to around �28,000. Under the enhanced voluntary scheme, | :02:22. | :02:32. | |
:02:32. | :02:32. | ||
he would get around �56,000. If you have got someone with 35 years' | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
service, at around �70,000, they have earned that money and the | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
money we are spending is what we have saved over the years. Compared | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
to other industry schemes, the council's payments are small but so | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
far, the total bill for senior staff comes to �7 million. I think | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
it is disgraceful. As a time when we are all having to tighten our | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
belts, they decide to spend all this money on people that are | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
already earning the large salaries. In Winchester, there were mixed | :03:03. | :03:11. | |
views. Disgusting. It is perfectly fair. They are one of the best | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
authorities in the country and they deserve it. I think there is a lot | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
of other places that money could be used. Even just putting the | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
pavements right. If it is an overall saving, that is there. But | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
I can see why people would be upset. The council says it is a case of | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
spend today to save tomorrow. We just heard there were mixed views. | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
These redundancies are going to cost the council a lot of money. | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
They are. The total bill will be high. That is because of a high | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
number of staff they are cutting. If you look at the individual | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
payments, relatively speaking, they are not huge. There are other | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
public and private bodies paying more. Is this idea of offering | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
people money to go. Dangling a financial carrot. It is the wrong | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
time. That is what is upsetting people. A is it just the senior | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
managers they get this in hands deal? | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
It is open to everybody but they are focusing on senior manager has | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
first. They get the most money. Some say for those senior people | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
who are close to retirement anyway, this could be a good deal. The | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
council dispute that, saying, lots of these people are after an age | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
where they would find it hard to get another job. Whatever pain and | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
they get needs to be enough not to leave them struggling. | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
Thank you. -- whatever payment they get. | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
The prosecution has finished laying out its case in the head of Barnett | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
trial. Danilo Restivo was accused of murdering the mother of two in | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
Bournemouth 2002. She was found in a bathroom with someone else's hair | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
in her hand. The case is due to start on Monday. | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
The timing could not have been worse. Yesterday was the first day | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
of the coarse fishing season but on the upper reaches of the River Arun | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
a major spill of sewage has left hundreds of fish dead. The spill | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
has wiped out all life along a two- mile stretch west of Horsham. The | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
Environment Agency has mounted a rescue operation. | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
A sewage spill sucks the oxygen out of the river. Some fish are left | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
struggling for breath. Most suffocate. The alarm was raised | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
here near Rudgwick on Wednesday. By yesterday morning, the Environment | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
Agency for knew they had a serious incident. Crews have been pumping | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
hydrogen peroxide into the river to raise the oxygen levels. The | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
chemical also reduces the levels of toxic ammonia caused by this image. | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
We think we have caught the majority of it here at this point. | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
We are dosing it at this point. The water quality here has improved | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
tremendously as a result of that action so we hope we can minimise | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
any impact further downstream. seven or eight miles of the river | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
are affected and hundreds of fish have died, including pike, roach | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
and perch. This stretch of the River Arun was a favourite with | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
anglers, many who were eager to take advantage of the coarse | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
fishing season which began yesterday. It is a terrible start | :06:19. | :06:26. | |
to my season. I'd fished in it as a lad and it has been very important | :06:26. | :06:36. | |
:06:36. | :06:36. | ||
to our club. It seems I we have been unlucky with the pollution. | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
The Southern Water Treatment Works at Broadbridge Heath is one of the | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
major sewage sources in the area and they are the focus of a | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
criminal investigation as the source of the pollution is trapped. | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
We did ask Southern Water Treatment Works for a comment and they told | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
us the source of the pollution has not been confirmed and they will | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
continue to work with the Environment Agency to protect the | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
wildlife and investigate the cause. Most schools in Dorset say they | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
will reject the county council's proposal to pay for their own | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
lollipop men. Funding worth �200,000 is coming to an end. For a | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
South Today investigation has found 32 of the schools affected her are | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
not prepared to pay for the service and 12 are undecided. | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
We have a school budget which is supposed to pay for all the | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
learning in the school. The school budget is not about providing the | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
safety elements. We have separate budgets for that and those are | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
catered for. I think this is the only cut I consider across the | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
country that it is a local cut that will result in the death of a child. | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
That is unforgivable. All we are doing is saying we cannot afford | :07:47. | :07:56. | |
the funding. Can we have some help from the local community? | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
Police in Salisbury are appealing for help to track down a man | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
suspected of two indecent assaults in the city centre on Wednesday | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
afternoon. They have released these CCTV pictures of a man they want to | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
talk to. The first incident took place in a shop in the Maltings and | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
involved a 13-year-old girl. A short time later, a 15-year-old | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
girl was indecently assaulted in Brown Street. | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
Fish on Friday - it is something of a tradition for many. But today, | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
shoppers were being urged by one big supermarket to do away with | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
their customary purchase in favour of less endangered species. The | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
offer to try less well-know breeds for free ties in with Government | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
conservation efforts, and the Berkshire MP responsible for | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
Britain's fisheries went down to his local supermarket to see how | :08:30. | :08:38. | |
the giveaway was going. Setting out their stall. But pride | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
of place going today not to the tabletop favourites like cod or | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
salmon, but less endangered and less well-known names that | :08:43. | :08:53. | |
:08:53. | :08:54. | ||
traditionally struggle to get onto the menu. 54% of the fish that are | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
thrown overboard are thrown away because there is no market for them. | :08:58. | :09:05. | |
What we are doing is trying to find markets for fish that are delicious | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
to eat but are less well-known. We have conservative tastes in the | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
United Kingdom and do not traditionally buy them. The Pascoes | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
are typical shoppers and just the kind of people this campaign is | :09:17. | :09:27. | |
aimed at. We normally by cod. I might go for haddock. What do you | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
make of the idea it today? It sounds brilliant. If I do not like | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
it, my husband will have it! Nobody today was turning down their free | :09:37. | :09:45. | |
samples. With the more plentiful alternatives cheaper everyday, that | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
may be the best chance of getting them from here and onto our dinner | :09:49. | :09:57. | |
plates. The colour is different. But other than tasting it... If you | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
saw them on the fish counter, what one would you pick? A wide one. I | :10:02. | :10:09. | |
do not like the look of that one. - - white one. That is probably cod. | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
Which one would you go for? white one. It looks better. Nobody | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
was turning down free samples. It may be the best chance of getting | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
them on to our dinner plates. Organisers of the London 2012 | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
Olympic Games have withdrawn the threat of legal action against an | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
Isle of Wight company. Earlier this week, Great Exhibition 2012 was | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
told to drop the date from its name or face legal action. Games | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
organisers said only they are entitled to the brand name 2012. | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
They have now said they will not take any further steps as long as | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
the Great Exhibition doesn't try to create an association with the | :10:49. | :10:59. | |

London Games. Still to come: The weather | :10:59. | :11:04. | |
presenter is looking to the skies and beyond. | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
Yes. I have been meeting the people and the technology heading into | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
space if to help us predict this will wet weather and so much more. | :11:13. | :11:21. | |
Join me later for a full forecast. A memorial service has been held | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
for one of the Royal Navy's greatest leaders. Admiral Sir Henry | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
Leach, who lived near Winchester, was in charge of the Royal Navy | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
when Britain are recaptured the Falkland islands. He died aged 87. | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
Steve Humphrey joined worshippers at Winchester Cathedral. | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
If senior officers joined Admiral Sir Henry Leach's family at the | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
Cathedral this afternoon to remember a man who had been made | :11:47. | :11:55. | |
the running through his veins. -- who had the Navy running. He played | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
a pivotal and decisive role in the recapture of the Falkland islands. | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
He was also a deeply loyal, committed and devoted man, not only | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
to his family, of course, but to the sailors who he led, the Royal | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
Navy he adored and the nation he served. Admiral Sir Henry Leach | :12:18. | :12:28. | |
:12:28. | :12:29. | ||
joined the Navy in 1937. He saw active service in World War Two,. | :12:29. | :12:35. | |
His finest hour came in 1982. Government has decided a large task | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
force will sail as soon as preparations are complete. As this | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
painting records, it was he who persuaded Margaret Thatcher the | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
Royal Navy could recapture the Falkland islands. I thought what is | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
the point in having the Navy if we do not use it for an occasion like | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
this? I left after midnight with the authority to assemble a task | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
force, assemble but not sale. I could not do this clandestinely on | :13:03. | :13:10. | |
my own. I had made undercover preparations. If he had not been in | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
a post, one has to wonder whether we would have retaken the Falklands. | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
He had that great, he knew what the Navy could do and he gave out | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
advice. -- that are great. When the flag was raised once again, it was | :13:24. | :13:31. | |
Mrs Thatcher who appeared jubilant in Downing Street. Marvellous. | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
I she knew only too well, none of it would have happened without | :13:35. | :13:45. | |

Tribute to Sir Henry Leach. A Petersfield Housing association has | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
taken the top prize in an international competition for eco- | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
friendly houses. The development by Radian had all the usual solar | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
panels, rain water recycling and insulation. But as well as building | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
new homes they transformed some former council houses to the same | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
high standard. Lynda Hills, who's lived in one of the houses since | :14:04. | :14:10. | |
she was a little girl, was amazed at the difference. It was cold and | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
it used to freeze up in the winter. We got dressed in bed because it | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
was very cold and the heating was not very good. It was going out | :14:19. | :14:24. | |
through the walls. But now they have got insulation, the heat does | :14:24. | :14:32. | |
not escape it. It is 100 % And there's more about those houses | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
on the Politics Show with Peter Henley on Sunday. The programme | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
starts at 12 o'clock on BBC1. Weather presenters get out and | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
about on a Friday and if you thought it was only when the sun | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
shines, think again. Sarah Farmer is picking up a few science tips at | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
a science fair in Portsmouth and you picked the right day to leave | :14:48. | :14:58. | |
:14:58. | :14:59. | ||
the dry of the studio, didn't you Sarah? Well, not really! Cats and | :14:59. | :15:05. | |
dogs springs to mind. We have got more rain coming. More information | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
about the weather forecast later. But I can tell you what I have been | :15:10. | :15:15. | |
updated today. I am learning about what happens high above the rain | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
clouds. We met real like astronauts. It was part of the Portsmouth | :15:21. | :15:31. | |
:15:31. | :15:36. | ||
Science Festival. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! We are going to talk about flying | :15:36. | :15:46. | |
:15:46. | :15:46. | ||
in space. I thought I would show you how I actually wash my hair. | :15:46. | :15:51. | |
You have to rub your shampoo in and get the water arm. What did you | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
learn today? When she had their hair up and was trying to sort it | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
out. Washing their hair in space. It was just everywhere. What does | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
it feel like to be in space? must be really cool. It does not | :16:09. | :16:16. | |
feel like you weigh anything. need children to get interested in | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
science and engineering because we need their inventive minds. If we | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
can get them excited about science and engineering, that all be great. | :16:25. | :16:31. | |
You can explore the night sky cheaply. You just need one of these. | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
With a basic telescope you can see the craters, the moon and the rings | :16:36. | :16:43. | |
of Saturn. It is unlikely I will make it into orbit but scientists | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
are right here are exploring space. They are looking at remote control | :16:48. | :16:56. | |
technology. I have to say, it is very exciting. It is very easy. It | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
is a standard controller. To go forward, a move the joystick | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
forward. Turn left and right by holding the Controller left and the | :17:07. | :17:15. | |
term will get gradually steeper. We are really just proving the | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
suspension is working. In the final version, she can actually walk. | :17:20. | :17:30. | |
That is it! Bridget here only goes five metres per minute and there | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
was not much danger of reading too much on it! I will be back later in | :17:36. | :17:46. | |
:17:46. | :17:50. | ||
Thank you, Sarah. One thing that is unlikely is keeping dry as far as | :17:50. | :18:00. | |
the cricket is concerned. Very few people will get that. Looking up | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
today was pretty grim. It was a very frustrating day. Another | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
frustrating day for cricket fans at The Rose Bowl, as the second day of | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
the historic Test Match was all-but washed out. They did get a bit of | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
play in the morning and it was a familiar face who stole the show. | :18:14. | :18:16. | |
Surrey paceman Chris Tremlett learnt his trade with Hampshire, | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
his home county and his father Tim is still Cricket Secretary at the | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
club. Tremlett took four wickets today and had 6-43 in total when | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
the rains came. Sri Lanka 177 for 9 in their first innings when the | :18:26. | :18:36. | |
rain brought play to an early end. Three matches in the Twenty20 South | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
group. The Surrey match has been delayed. Hampshire and Sussex are | :18:42. | :18:52. | |
due to get started later but I am The fixtures for the new Football | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
League season have been announced today. There are full details on | :18:54. | :18:58. | |

Portsmouth and Southampton will no doubt be fiercely contested at | :19:10. | :19:18. | |
Fratton Park on the 17th of December. More information online. | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
The Olympic focus here in the South has so far been the sailing venue | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
in Weymouth and Portland and the rowing at Eton Dorney in Berkshire. | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
But many of our athletes will be heading to London to compete next | :19:28. | :19:32. | |

Organisers are keen to make sure B- sides are connected. When you go | :20:15. | :20:21. | |
down to watch and see it on the television, I think it is going to | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
feel part of the London 20 of celebrations. The Olympic Park is | :20:26. | :20:32. | |
the size of 350 football pitches. But next year, this corner of east | :20:32. | :20:41. | |
London will be the focus of the The weather's put paid to plenty of | :20:41. | :20:49. | |
cricket lately. But not this lunchtime. I went to meet a man | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
who's just earned a place in the sport's bible, Wisden. Dean Nurse | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
bowled ten overs without conceding a run in a recent local league game | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
and that's something cricket's statisticians have never heard of | :20:57. | :21:04. | |
This a mean bowler. In more ways than one. Ten overs. Without | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
conceding a run. And taking two wickets to boot. That makes Dean a | :21:08. | :21:18. | |
:21:18. | :21:23. | ||
After about five I felt I could do it and as it went on I got a bit | :21:23. | :21:29. | |
nervous and come the last ball, I bowled at the batsman missed. 10 | :21:29. | :21:35. | |
overs, 10 maidens. Dean's feat came on one of the pitches here at May's | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
Bounty, playing for the Basingstoke and North Hampshire thirds in a | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
League fixture against Littleton and West Hill last weekend. They | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
said well done and the opposite team gave me a standing ovation. It | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
was like I had scored 100! But Dean comes from good sporting stock. We | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
featured his father Leon on South Today seven years ago. He was | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
riding his first race as an amateur jockey, at the age of 52, after a | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
hip replacement. While Dean wrote his name in the history books, Leon | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
also made headlines recently winning a charity race at Newbury. | :22:06. | :22:12. | |
He has been working for a charity that helps spinal injuries. He is | :22:12. | :22:18. | |
59 and fitter than I am! Very pleased and very proud. Someone | :22:18. | :22:25. | |
with no gear and no idea challenged Dean to a one-ball face-off. After | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
a couple of warm-up shots in the drizzle... Mean Dean's big test. | :22:28. | :22:37. | |
Passed with flying colours. No surprise really! He couldn't even | :22:37. | :22:47. | |
get a run offer him a! Welcome, Dean Nurse. Wisden really think, | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
they have never heard of anything like that before. The best they had | :22:50. | :23:00. | |
:23:00. | :23:09. | ||
heard of was eight maidens. He had Let's have a look at where we were | :23:09. | :23:16. | |
