Checking out - Air South West is suspending flights from Plymouth | :00:16. | :00:24. | |
Airport for a month. Welcome to Spotlight. Also tonight: Facing | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
eviction, anger from the relatives of the elderly residents being | :00:30. | :00:37. | |
forced to move. She is 89. She's worried. She's now on | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
tranquillisers, which she has never been on before. A colourful troop | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
through streets as the cold stream guards are granted the freedom of | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
Exeter. There are more concerns this evening over the immediate | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
future of Plymouth Airport. Air South West has cancelled all its | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
flights from July 29th for a month, moving them to Newquay instead. The | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
airline's blaming a lack of local military radar cover, but the | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
airport says it's never been available in the summer and it can | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
operate safely without it. Spotlight's John Ayres is live at | :01:07. | :01:17. | |
:01:17. | :01:17. | ||
Plymouth Airport. Well this is bad news for the airline and for the | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
airport and bad news for the city of Plymouth. Let's make it clear, | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
Newquay airport will operate as normal and the plan is passengers | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
from Plymouth will be bused to Newquay. This is causing concern | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
among people in the Plymouth business community. Some of the | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
businesses we have got here are internationally-based. If the | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
chairman of company is flying in from the United States, it is vital | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
he gets to his business as quickly as possible. We will never know if | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
he didn't have an airport how much business we might lose and it is | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
essential that we find a viable alternative. So we don't lose any | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
of inward investment or the local growth of businesss that is crucial. | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
Now Air South West is blaming this on military cover for radar | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
military cover from HMS Drake. But operatorings have operating during | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
this month when it is not in use for 16 years. The reason it stops | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
is for holiday cover. Joining me is an economist. What do you think is | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
the impact? I don't think it will be major in the short-term. It will | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
save a bit of money for Air South West. And at the end of the day | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
they will stop the flights any way in December. That is when the key | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
impact will be. It makes it harder, more costly for local businesss to | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
serve their market and they will have to take more time out of the | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
office. It makes it harder to sell the city to inward investors and to | :02:56. | :03:03. | |
turists that. Will be the impact with an August shot down. -- | :03:03. | :03:12. | |
tourists. So in a short message, do you think it will be a real problem | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
long-term? I think it is a problem long-term and adding to a number of | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
difficulties which Plymouth has. The truth is the airport is not | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
viable and we have to move on. Thank you. Air South west which is | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
operated by eastern airlines did release a statement, but eastern | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
airlines did not want to be interviewed. But they have said | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
passengers concerned will be contacted. Thank you. Residents of | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
a care home for retired bank staff, including a woman of 105 who's | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
lived there 30 years, are facing the prospect of eviction notices | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
this week. The Royal Bank of Scotland Care Homes Foundation says | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
Wallis Court in Torquay is losing money and must shut. But residents' | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
families are fighting closure, which they say is unnecessary. | :03:54. | :04:04. | |
:04:04. | :04:04. | ||
Here's our Health Correspondent, Sally Mountjoy. Stuart has been to | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
visit his 96-year-old father in his Torquay care home. Donald worked | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
for NatWest bank for 40 years. This home is one of three set up in the | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
70s for pensioners of what is now the Royal Bank of Scotland. But | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
others have been handed eviction notices. It is causing extreme | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
distress. He describes the decision as cruel. Which I agree with. He is | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
happy and does not want to move. He is not very mobile. I think it is | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
going to have a devastating effect if I have to move him. We asked to | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
speak to trustees of Royal Bank of Scotland Care Homes Foundation who | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
were at the home for talks with staff today. The chairman of | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
trustees was not prepared to comment. But in a statement the | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
charity said that the trustees had been conserd about continued | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
financial losses and low occupancy rates at the three homes. The | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
foundation said it understood that resident and staff found the | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
prospect of closure upsetting, but it would do everything possible to | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
MEP people through the process. The families say with half a million | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
Royal Bank of Scotland pensioners eligible to live in the homes, it | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
is hard to believe the charity can't fill them. They're fighting | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
closure and have filed an official complaint to the Charity Commission. | :05:22. | :05:29. | |
Selwyn's father was a bank manager and her mum Lily lives at Wallis | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
Court. They have been outstanding in the way they have cared for her. | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
I believe she would not be alive today if it wasn't for their loving | :05:38. | :05:45. | |
care. He says the home's excellent rating is supported by staff and | :05:45. | :05:52. | |
those who live there, including a woman of 105. Selwyn's mother is | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
distressed. She has made friends there, she is 89. She's worried. | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
She is now on tranquilisers. Because she can't sleep. She is | :06:03. | :06:11. | |
often tearful. That is unacceptable in my opinion. Lily regards Wallis | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
Court as her home and one she never expected she would have to leave. | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
Police have confirmed that a body found near Fernworthy Reservoir in | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
Devon is that of missing Joel Andrews. The 24-year-old from | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
Monmouthshire was last seen six weeks ago after a rave close to the | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
reservoir. His body was discovered in nearby woodland at the weekend. | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
Police say their enquiries are continuing. The Alzheimers Society | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
claims that around three quarters of dementia patients in Dorset are | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
missing out on treatment because their condition isn't being | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
properly diagnosed. A study by the organisation has found huge | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
variations in the rate of diagnosis across the country. It's estimated | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
that half a million people nationwide are currently living | :06:46. | :06:56. | |
without a proper diagnosis. Thousands of people lined the | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
streets of Exeter today as the Coldstream Guards were granted the | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
Freedom of the city. The regiment marched through the city centre | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
before an inspection and ceremony where their colours were blessed. | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
As Hamish Marshall reports, it gave some local soldiers the chance to | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
march on home ground and follows a service at Exeter Cathedral last | :07:10. | :07:20. | |
:07:20. | :07:25. | ||
night. It was the day events like the Royal Wedding and trooping the | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
colour came to town. For the second day in a row in Devon, the | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
Coldstream Guards were marching to be honoured. Only the fourth | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
military unit to be granted the freedom of Exeter. It is rare in | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
terms of whole regiment being on parade. But also I have only done | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
one freedom before of some ten years ago. It is a real treat for | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
us to recorrect with an important part of the country for the | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
regiment. The Coldstream Guards recruit in the South West, making | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
today extra special for some of the 300 on parade. I have grown up hoor | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
since I was eight and I come here every Saturday and to march through | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
part of this regiment is amazeling. The turnout was fantastic. The | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
people I think feel as proud and we feel proud of whole regiment. | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
is the culmination of two special days for the troops, after being | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
given the freedom of herton yesterday, there was a special | :08:30. | :08:40. | |
:08:40. | :08:42. | ||
concert at Exeter cathedral from the regimental band. The sound of | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
music around Exeter cathedral as the band of the Coldstream Guards | :08:48. | :08:58. | |
:08:58. | :09:04. | ||
performed. The concert entitled Heroes Pride of the Nation was part | :09:04. | :09:13. | |
of a celebration of the regiment's Devon links. It was great fun and | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
what I liked most is the warmth I could feel from the audience here. | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
What a great place to play, the cathedral is a wonderful place. The | :09:22. | :09:32. | |
:09:32. | :09:58. | ||
audience were really warm. The band There was more music today as the | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
guards marched past the Guildhall. The sight of red tunics and | :10:04. | :10:10. | |
bearskins was not to be missed. Some people queued for two hours. | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
Makes you feel very proud. brought my grand daug. I wouldn't | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
have missed it for nothing. much work went into making that | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
look right today? For somebody who hasn't been in the job long it | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
takes a bit of effort. But I have been in the job for a while and it | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
can be anything from a few hours to a whole evening. They are the last | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
regiment local to Devon still in service and have given everyone a | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
rare day. An impressive sight and some wonderful music. A school in | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
Cornwall is considering selling off part of its site to a supermarket | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
chain, to fund a major rebuilding programme. Governors at Newquay | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
Tretherras School say the sale of the land is the only way to fund | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
new classrooms, a library and a new theatre, because government money | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
is no longer available. No deal has been struck, but the idea has | :11:05. | :11:12. | |
angered some local people. The head teacher has defended the plan. | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
can't rebuild part of your school for two and six. And you know there | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
are lot of people coming up with loads of suggestion about this and | :11:21. | :11:29. | |
that. But there isn't any money around. We do need to raise a | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
significant, multi-millions to rebuild what we need to rebuild. | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
Coming up: The campaign to remove the Council Tax discount on second | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
homes. Plus the burning issue of rubbish - campaigners say | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
incinerators don't tackle the real problem. And a fast boat to the | :11:43. | :11:53. | |
:11:53. | :11:56. | ||
Arctic - we'll follow Pete Goss on Cornwall Council is calling on the | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
Government to bring in new legislation to remove the Council | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
Tax discount on second homes. The authority thinks the proposal could | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
generate �1.6 million which would then be used to provide more | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
affordable housing. Councillors are now going to write to the Secretary | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
of State for Communities and Local Government, Eric Pickles, to seek | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
his support. Spotlight's Emma Ruminski has been to Cawsand in | :12:12. | :12:22. | |
:12:22. | :12:26. | ||
Cornwall to find out what people there think of the idea. A nice | :12:26. | :12:34. | |
place to live. And the nice place to holiday. It is popular with | :12:34. | :12:41. | |
second home owners. But owning a second property could be about to | :12:41. | :12:47. | |
get more expensive. The discount on second home owners has been reduced. | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
Before 2009 the Council Tax bill for their holiday home was | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
discounted by 50% that. Has now shrunk to 10%. But Cornwall council | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
has voted to take this further and wants the Government to allow to it | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
abolish second home discounts. think as an off-the-cuff reaction, | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
I'm in favour. The problem about the lack of affordable housing for | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
people who have grown up in the area, I don't know see why people | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
who are lucky enough to afford a second home should enjoy a subsidy. | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
Locals can't afford them. Especially youngsters. So no, I'm | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
all for it. In some ways I think it is bad they're peerpblising people, | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
but for people who live locally, they haven't got a chance to get a | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
home. If they're not I living full- time, should they pay full tax? I | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
don't know. T I suspect my gut feeling is they shouldn't. Second | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
home orns are often blamed for raising house prices out of reach | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
of locals. But kit argued holiday lets bring in tourists. -- but it | :13:58. | :14:04. | |
can be argued that holiday lets bring in tourist. One councillor | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
said there are almost 14 thousand properties registered as second | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
homes and removing the 10% discount would provide an additional �1.6 | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
million which could be used to provide homes for locals. Shelter | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
believes we should go further and local authorities should have the | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
power to charge second home owners and that money would be used to | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
help provide for people in the county who need housing. That is | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
desperately needed. The charity Shelter wants tax loopholes closed | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
for second home orns and estimates there are up to 8,000 people in | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
Cornwall waiting for local authority housing. We tried to | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
speak to some second home owners in Cawsand today, but they didn't want | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
to talk to us. Nor did estate agents or those arranging holiday | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
lets. So is this idea of bringing in new legislation to remove the | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
Council Tax discount viable? Earlier I spoke to our Political | :14:58. | :15:05. | |
Editor, Martyn Oates, in Westminster. There are two issues | :15:05. | :15:11. | |
here. One is the fact that the Council Tax discount allows local | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
authorities to identify second homes, to know where they are and | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
how many they are. There is a related point which has been | :15:18. | :15:24. | |
important in Cornwall, that is that some people get a second vote by | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
having a second home. That is perfectly legal in some cases, | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
although not everyone agrees with that. But Cornwall council removed | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
a lot of people from the electoral register, who they said shouldn't | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
have been there. The other point which was raised was the | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
possibilities of people who rent out their home registering for | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
business rates instead. That would remove the revenue the Council Tax | :15:49. | :15:58. | |
revenue council gets at the moment. If you have any views on this, | :15:58. | :16:08. | |
:16:08. | :16:10. | ||
The burning question of what to do with our rubbish has sparked a | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
fierce debate across the south west. Landfill is running out and | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
creating energy from waste has become the preferred alternative | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
for many south west authorities. They say it's an efficient method | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
of getting rid of waste. There are three sites where incinerators are | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
planned. At St Dennis in Cornwall, a legal challenge has just been | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
mounted to the proposed plant. In Plymouth a planning application has | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
been submitted to build an incinerator at Devonport naval yard. | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
Meanwhile on the outskirts of Exeter Viridor has been awarded the | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
contract to incinerate 60,000 tonnes of waste a year. As our | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
Environment Correspondent Adrian Campbell reports, rubbish has | :16:36. | :16:46. | |
:16:46. | :16:55. | ||
become big business. At this new recycling centre at Pinhoe, �4 | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
million has been invested to try to reduce the amount of waste that | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
will be disposed of as landfill. Landfill is becoming expensive, | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
because of environmental taxes. What do people think about burning | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
waste to create energy? If you can repsyche it will stuff we throw | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
away and produce -- recycle stuff we throw away and produce energy | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
that is good. But does it proDawes a will the of smoke? Does it | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
produce bad things within the smokist itself. We're going to run | :17:30. | :17:37. | |
out of landfill. So if they can incinerate it and have energy going | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
back into the system, then great. At this site, the old incinerator | :17:43. | :17:51. | |
has made way for Viridor's plans to burn 60,000 tonnes of rubbish a | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
year. The process is reliable. They haveed a -- they have had this in | :17:57. | :18:03. | |
frapbt France for -- they have had this in France for 0 years. And the | :18:03. | :18:10. | |
cost will be less. But one man questions the concept of burning | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
rub toish produce energy. We need to start bringing forward real | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
sensible policies about reducing our waste. Which means getting | :18:21. | :18:28. | |
together with packaging companies. In order to do this properly. | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
Incineration is a controversial subject. In Cornwall plans for a | :18:32. | :18:39. | |
energy from waste plant has been delayed after a legal challenge by | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
campaigners. They are worried about special areas of conservation near | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
St Dennis. The time scale in the court could be heard been three | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
months. But it could stretch to six months. In effect it could delay | :18:52. | :19:01. | |
matters by six months. See that ta UK say they are aware of -- SITA UK | :19:01. | :19:08. | |
say they are aware of challenge, but are unable to comment while the | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
challenge continues. The takeover of Plymouth Argyle Football Club | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
has been completed. The protracted sale and purchase of the Pilgrims | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
was finally sealed this afternoon. Spotlight's Dave Gibbins assesses | :19:17. | :19:24. | |
what this means to the troubled club. The Plymouth saga could rival | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
any best sellers. The twists and turns are enough to leave you in | :19:28. | :19:35. | |
agony and the pain is being felt by staff and fans. The Irish | :19:35. | :19:42. | |
consortium at last put pen to paper today. They will buy Home Park and | :19:42. | :19:49. | |
the land for around �5 to �6 million. Peter Ridsdale will assume | :19:49. | :19:53. | |
control of football matters in a more official capacity. The staff | :19:53. | :20:00. | |
and players will be paid in full, but over a period of time. Manager | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
Peter Reid reed can continue his player recruitment. Season tickets | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
can be bought and the commercial department can seek new response | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
sors. They have have to -- now they have to satisfy the Football League. | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
And then come out of administration and receive the league share. They | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
aim to do that before the season kicks off in August. University of | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
Exeter graduate Arul Suppiah last night set a new Twenty/20 cricket | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
world record by taking six wickets for only five runs for Somerset | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
against Glamorgan. The slow left arm bowler started his haul when | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
Glamorgan had reached 77 runs. The 27-year-old Malaysian completed his | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
record when the Welsh county were bowled out for just 98. Somerset | :20:43. | :20:53. | |
went on to win by five wickets. Cornish adventurer Pete Goss has | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
completed his latest challenge - a journey from the north of Scotland | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
to the Arctic Circle. He was part of a team to become the first to | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
make the voyage in a rigid inflatable boat. They battled rough | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
seas and crossed hundreds of miles of water to reach their destination | :21:05. | :21:15. | |
:21:15. | :21:15. | ||
in Norway. John Danks reports. Setting out from Wick in the north | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
of sloond, on course for the Arctic. For Pete Goss this is just a hop, | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
skip and jump? Have I done longer trips. I have done a four and a | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
half month race. In that sense it is a different adventure. We wanted | :21:32. | :21:39. | |
to do this voyage in the smallest open boat possible. The 6.3 Humber | :21:39. | :21:46. | |
ocean pro is the smallest you can go. Because we have a large fuel | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
requirement. It is a small boat, the further you go from land, the | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
smaller it becomes. The team travelled more than 900 miles. Six | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
days after leaving Scotland they arrived in Norway. We took these | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
tiny ribs from Scotland above the Arctic Circle. We have proven that | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
a we can take this on. And learn and enjoy it. We have had our up | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
and downs. There has been some hard days, but that is what it is about. | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
The Arctic water didn't stop them celebrating in style. Finishing the | :22:24. | :22:34. | |
:22:34. | :22:35. | ||
challenge! Makes me feel cold looking at that. I don't know what | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
the water temperatures are around ah coast. About 14 degrees. It is | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
ah coast. About 14 degrees. It is not very warm on land either. We | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
have had some wet conditions and some blustery conditions outside | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
now. For the rest of the week we have got blustery conditions and we | :22:53. | :22:58. | |
continue to see the risk of showers and longer spells of rain. This was | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
earlier today where we saw a bit of bright, dry weather. But the rain | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
soon arrived and the wet weather set in across the South West. Some | :23:08. | :23:16. | |
of the rain was quite heavy. The conditions challenging fog -- for | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
the aircraft. Tomorrow will be brighter, but sceness like this | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
will greet us as we see showers and some will be heavy. Let's look at | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
the big satellite picture that shows what is going on. A deep area | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
of low pressure between the tip of Ireland and the north coast of | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
Devon that. Area for a while will give us a strength of wind that is | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
unusual at this time of year. Then it moves away and the second half | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
of the night quietens down. Tomorrow a mixture of sunshine and | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
showers for the morning. Perhaps drier in the afternoon. Then more | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
wet weather will give more persistent rain in the evening. | :23:55. | :24:03. | |
Friday, is a bit more straight foreed -- forward. The weekend | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
becomes drier. There this a picture from today. You can see the curl of | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
cloud that has developed. This will give us some strong wind tonight. | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
Mostly along the north Devon and north Cornwall coast that. Wind | :24:18. | :24:26. | |
will drop after midnight. So briefly tonight 40 to 50mph gusts | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
are possible. Later on the winds will drop. Some showers stay with | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
us through to the end of the night and temperatures between 10 and 13. | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
Tomorrow, there is some sunshine in the morning. But also one or two | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
sharp showers. That will be the case through to the end of day and | :24:45. | :24:55. | |
:24:55. | :24:57. | ||
into the evening more persistent rain coming in. As are you can see | :24:57. | :25:05. | |
some sunshine between the showers. There is the temperature for much | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
of tomorrow. 16 or 17 where we see showers. Up to 19 in the sunshine. | :25:09. | :25:15. | |
Not as wingedy, but still a fresh south-west breeze. The forecast for | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
the Isles of Scilly, showers are possible, also sunny spells. Later | :25:19. | :25:29. | |
:25:29. | :25:31. | ||
it clouds over with more rain. Times of high water are on screen. | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
For the surfers the surf will be messed up, because of the strength | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
of the wind. The north coast up to seven foot and messy. The south | :25:40. | :25:46. | |
coast less, but still chopy. Coastal waters, the winds are | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
south-westerly, force four the five, but occasionally six gusting seven. | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
Freshening again in the evening as more rain sets in. Showers with | :25:56. | :26:05. | |
moderate or good visibility in. -- the showers. On Friday more showers. | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
Into the weekend, the winds calm down. The sunshine comes out. And | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
the temperatures rise. By the time we get into Saturday and Sunday, | :26:13. | :26:20. | |
probably a few places getting to 19 or 20 degrees in what a is -- in | :26:20. | :26:27. | |
what is a dry story. But blustery tonight. Thank you. We're all | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
getting a response from you on the second home on Council Tax. Gaynor | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
said I think full Council Tax on second homes is rights. You don't | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
get a discount for having two cars. Why should houses be different. | :26:40. | :26:48. | |
from Jane says I own a second home in Cor wall - Cornwall and the | :26:48. | :26:53. | |
house was inherited the only way can I afford to keep it is to let | :26:53. | :27:00. | |
it. I employ several local people. David says so how many affordable | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
homes can be built for �1.6 million. Ian says why should the wealthy be | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
exempt from a tax that everyone else has to pay? Another from Tim, | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
that says why should they gate discount if they can afford a | :27:16. | :27:21. |
