:01:34. > :01:38.News at Six. Heathrow Airport has warned of gridlock next Wednesday
:01:38. > :01:42.when immigration officers walk out as part of the public sector strike.
:01:42. > :01:46.The airport's owner BAA says passengers can expect delays of up
:01:46. > :01:49.to 12 hours. It's asked airlines flying into Heathrow to reduce by
:01:49. > :01:52.half the number of people they bring in on Wednesday, and offer
:01:52. > :01:56.their passengers alternative dates to travel. Other airports will also
:01:56. > :02:02.be affected. Our transport correspondent Richard Lister
:02:02. > :02:05.reports. More international passengers fly
:02:05. > :02:10.into Heathrow than anywhere else, but the airport's warning that next
:02:10. > :02:13.Wednesday they may face gridlock. Industrial action's caused problems
:02:14. > :02:18.here before. These planes were grounded during a dispute in March
:02:18. > :02:20.last year. Heathrow's asking airlines to fly their planes in
:02:20. > :02:23.half-full during the strike, warning them in a letter that
:02:23. > :02:27.without further action arriving passengers could face delays of up
:02:27. > :02:32.to 12 hours, so long that passengers could not be safely

:02:56. > :03:01.Heathrow is not the way we planned on starting it. But here's what she
:03:01. > :03:04.is up against. Striking unions represent more than 1800 border
:03:04. > :03:08.control staff at Heathrow. They say not a single member will turn up
:03:08. > :03:12.for work on Wednesday. Other civil servants are being brought in but
:03:12. > :03:17.immigration staffing levels are expected to be less than 50%. And
:03:17. > :03:21.by 9.00am on Wednesday almost 100 long haul flights and 22,000
:03:21. > :03:25.passengers will already have landed. The problem for Heathrow is that it
:03:25. > :03:31.operates at 98% capacity which gives it almost no room for
:03:31. > :03:34.manoeuvre when trouble strikes. So, even a mod rat disruption can --
:03:34. > :03:37.moderate disruption can spiral into something worse. The UK Border
:03:37. > :03:40.Agency had said there were robust contingency plans to replace
:03:40. > :03:44.striking immigration officers. Today, though, Downing Street
:03:44. > :03:50.suggested those plans were still a work in progress and that doesn't

:03:53. > :03:58.planes, to investors or American business people who are coming here
:03:58. > :04:04.to do business, you are going to turn Britain into a laughing stock
:04:04. > :04:07.internationally. Other UK airports are not expected to be as badly hit
:04:07. > :04:11.but Heathrow is despite to avoid the gridlock caused by last
:04:11. > :04:14.winter's snow and as the airlines and the Government only can keep
:04:14. > :04:17.passengers moving. Richard is here now. Clearly
:04:17. > :04:22.Heathrow's going to be very badly affected. What about transport
:04:22. > :04:25.overall? Well, something like 288,000 people cross into the UK
:04:25. > :04:28.every day and Heathrow is going to be the worst affected because of
:04:28. > :04:31.its capacity problems. Gatwick is warning of the potential for
:04:31. > :04:34.significant delays, but they think they can cope. The regional
:04:34. > :04:40.airports, Liverpool, Manchester, have both told us today they think
:04:40. > :04:42.they'll probably be OK. Stansted, the same. Ferry travellers may face
:04:42. > :04:46.disruption, particularly those travelling through northern France
:04:47. > :04:50.which will also be affected by the strike. What we don't know is how
:04:50. > :04:55.many passengers will change their plans on Wednesday and we don't
:04:55. > :04:59.know how many people will turn up to staff those immigration desks.
:04:59. > :05:02.Thank you. Hundreds of thousands of

:05:05. > :05:09.new Government scheme. Private employers will be offered a subsidy
:05:10. > :05:13.if they take on an 18-24-year-old for at least six months. The Deputy
:05:13. > :05:17.Prime Minister said �1 billion will be spent on the project over three
:05:17. > :05:21.years. But it's unclear where that money will come from. Our political
:05:21. > :05:26.correspondent Ben Geoghan reports. He is young, he is out of work, and
:05:26. > :05:30.he is one in more than a million others. He left college two months

:05:35. > :05:41.luck. I just feel stuck. I am in the middle, I just feel stuck
:05:41. > :05:45.basically. I am applying, nobody getting back to me. It feels like
:05:45. > :05:50.time's flying but it's me standing still. I am really incredibly
:05:50. > :05:53.grateful to you for getting up so early. Today, Nick Clegg tried to
:05:53. > :05:58.give more young people a reason to get up early. He announced details
:05:58. > :06:03.of a so-called youth contract, a scheme to subsidise workplacements
:06:03. > :06:06.in the private sector. If you are between the ages of 18 and 24 and
:06:06. > :06:10.out of work and you are feeling lonely and demoralised and cut off
:06:10. > :06:12.at home, sending out job applications, never getting an
:06:12. > :06:18.answer, we will under this contract give you the opportunity to learn
:06:18. > :06:22.or earn. Under the youth contract 250,000 extra work experience
:06:22. > :06:26.places will be on offer, each lasting up to eight weeks. On top
:06:27. > :06:31.of that, the wages of 160,000 young people will be subsidised by the
:06:31. > :06:38.Government for six months. Employers will get over �2,000 for
:06:38. > :06:41.every person they take on. There will also be money for more young
:06:41. > :06:44.apprentices and one man who knows a lot about them is warning the
:06:44. > :06:48.scheme will have to be monitored properly. Every time someone comes
:06:48. > :06:53.up with new scheme you can start to see how it can be abused, take
:06:53. > :06:58.someone on for six months, take the money, threw them out. Bring
:06:58. > :07:02.another one in, take the money. The benefit has to be to the actual
:07:02. > :07:07.employee. The Government is putting �1 billion into the Youth Contract
:07:07. > :07:12.which will be paid out over three years. And the hope is it will help
:07:12. > :07:17.more than 400,000 young people find work. But what Ministers haven't
:07:17. > :07:20.spelt out today is exactly where that money will come from.
:07:20. > :07:25.Labour have criticised the Government for axing their jobs
:07:25. > :07:29.scheme. They're concerned at suggestions this one will be paid
:07:29. > :07:32.for by freezing some tax credits. We think there should and bigger
:07:32. > :07:38.scheme that will get more young people back to work but would fund
:07:38. > :07:42.it by a sensible and fair tax on bankers' bonuses. It should be a
:07:42. > :07:45.bonus tax paying young people back to work not a squeeze on family tax
:07:45. > :07:50.credits. Next week the Government will be making more announcements
:07:50. > :07:54.about how to get the economy moving. Its critics say its policies are

:21:15. > :21:19.that Labour would find too difficult to find a deal to help
:21:19. > :21:23.poorest pupils here. They have agreed an economic stimulus package.
:21:23. > :21:31.Money we thought would probably be spent there any way. Plaid Cymru
:21:31. > :21:35.have said they have spent their votes and sold them too cheaply.
:21:35. > :21:42.They suspect in the morning the Welsh Liberal Democrats leader
:21:42. > :21:46.might live to regret this deal. Thank you. The former England
:21:46. > :21:49.manager, Martin Johnson, has described the fall out of the rugby
:21:49. > :21:54.cup campaign as one of the worst things he has experienced in the
:21:54. > :22:01.game. He stood down as team manager last week. Today, he launched a
:22:01. > :22:06.passionate defence of his players. As a player, he was the totem of
:22:06. > :22:11.English rugby. The first and only man to lead his country to World
:22:11. > :22:16.Cup glory. As a coach, Martin Johnson was to become the fall guy
:22:16. > :22:22.for England's dismal World Cup. His reputation has suffered damages by
:22:22. > :22:25.leaking of reports which revealed his players' thoughts on the
:22:25. > :22:31.campaign. He has admit it was hurt. It is one of the worst things I
:22:31. > :22:35.have experienced in the game. I also now, I sit in feed-back
:22:35. > :22:40.meetings, 90% of the time with the players. You come out sometimes and
:22:40. > :22:44.you can get contrary arguments. Johnson was also forced to address
:22:44. > :22:51.the latest revelations, which suggest an unnamed player felt they
:22:51. > :22:56.were put under player by the RFU to pay off a hotel chamber maid over
:22:56. > :22:59.an incident which players were subsequently played. She asked for
:22:59. > :23:04.compensation. The last thing those players needed and the team needed
:23:04. > :23:07.was for a story to break on the morning of a game. This week's leak
:23:07. > :23:12.painted a picture of a divided squad, with some players appearing
:23:12. > :23:16.to care more about money than winning. After unprecedented
:23:16. > :23:20.upheaval here, the relationship between those who play here and the
:23:20. > :23:24.RFU appears at breaking-point. There may be a lack of respect or
:23:24. > :23:28.sense of collaboration between the players and the RFU. It's done
:23:28. > :23:32.considerable damage. If you like, there's an opportunity
:23:32. > :23:37.for who ever comes in, be it a care-taker role or going forward,
:23:37. > :23:42.to try and restore that relationship, because it has beenor
:23:42. > :23:45.peddos by what is going on. There's no doubt the reigning champions
:23:45. > :23:52.still have talent. The problem for England is the way they have
:23:52. > :23:59.behaved and the way hay have been portrayed. Now it's a remarkable
:23:59. > :24:05.story which has astonished medical experts Monique Van der Vorst has
:24:05. > :24:08.been paralysed from the waist down for 13 years. Last year she crashed
:24:08. > :24:17.during training. Soon after the feeling gradually began to return
:24:17. > :24:22.to her legs. Now she hopes to compete as an able bodied athlete.
:24:22. > :24:26.Meet Monique Van der Vorst as she once was. A Paralympian. A world
:24:27. > :24:32.beater at handcycling. Paralysed in both her legs. Now, meet her today.
:24:32. > :24:36.From the age of 13 her left leg was paralysed after surgery on her foot
:24:36. > :24:42.went wrong. Three years ago, she also lost the use of her right leg
:24:42. > :24:45.in a car crash. Then last year, Monique Van der
:24:45. > :24:49.Vorst had another terrible training accident which put her back in
:24:49. > :24:53.hospital for a long time. During the months of physiotherapy and
:24:53. > :24:58.training, she began to get feeling in her legs and then the use of
:24:58. > :25:02.both of them. Doctors simply can't explain it. I just did it. I just
:25:02. > :25:05.walked. I did it over and over again until I fell over on the
:25:05. > :25:10.ground. I could not believe it. think many people cannot believe it.
:25:10. > :25:14.Can you explain it? No. I have no idea how it happened! I really
:25:14. > :25:21.don't know. So, you could not use your legs for three years of your
:25:21. > :25:24.life, both legs and 13 of your life for one leg? Yeah. Now you are
:25:24. > :25:30.cycling again. Her living room is full of the trophies and medals
:25:31. > :25:34.from a long career as a disabled athlete. Three World Championships,
:25:34. > :25:39.eight nationals, and twice a silver medallist at the Beijing
:25:39. > :25:45.Paralympics. That's all over now. It feels like a new life, a new
:25:45. > :25:50.chance. I'm very lucky and very happy to do it all again. Now with
:25:50. > :25:53.my legs. Also, besides the sport, life is easier, walking and it's
:25:53. > :26:00.feels like a big challenge. I really want to push hard and train
:26:00. > :26:03.and see where I can get. So, she has lived one Olympic dream. Now
:26:03. > :26:12.she hopes to power her way to another.
:26:12. > :26:16.Rio, 2016? I would not bet against Amazing!
:26:16. > :26:18.The Duchess of Cornwall has visited the set of Strictly Come Dancing,
:26:18. > :26:26.where she saw rehearsals for tomorrow night's show. The Duchess,
:26:26. > :26:31.who is a fan, was invited by the judge.
:26:31. > :26:34.She met the stars and dancers in the show and went on a tour behind
:26:34. > :26:38.the scenes. Right, let's look at the weather
:26:38. > :26:41.now. John is here. How are you doing?
:26:41. > :26:46.John is here. How are you doing? Very well. Good in parts, the
:26:46. > :26:49.weekend. At time there will be a blow, quite windy. With time the
:26:49. > :26:53.winds will cause a problem up and down the country. It will be
:26:53. > :26:56.disturbed. Here is the picture. Rain clouds looming out west. Some
:26:56. > :26:59.places will turn wet overnight. The skies are clear. The lowest
:26:59. > :27:03.temperatures will be through this evening, down to three or four
:27:03. > :27:07.Celsius. One or two places will see a touch of frost. Then the wind
:27:07. > :27:10.increases, the cloud increases and it turns wet. Notably across
:27:10. > :27:15.western Scotland. Patchy rain for Northern Ireland and northern
:27:15. > :27:19.England. Further south it stays largely dry, albeit turning breezy.
:27:19. > :27:23.The wind is of concern. We have an amber warning in force. With time,
:27:23. > :27:26.it will kaz disruption. We think across northern parts of the
:27:26. > :27:32.country. Very windy and very wet again, particularly for western
:27:32. > :27:36.Scotland. Dribs and drabs elsewhere across the north. Further south, it
:27:36. > :27:44.stays dry, bright and breezy, with reasonable Sunshine over southern
:27:44. > :27:47.and eastern England in particular. A mild one, de-- despite the wind.
:27:47. > :27:51.It is through this evening where we are concerned. The strong winds
:27:51. > :28:00.will not just be over the hill tops they will bounce into north-east
:28:00. > :28:03.England. For example t -- the A1 could be badly affected, from frisk
:28:03. > :28:06.up to Newcastle, into Northumberland. Be aware of that,
:28:06. > :28:12.if you are on the move through tomorrow evening and into the night
:28:12. > :28:16.it will be windy. For a time, very wet. Into Sunday morning the worst
:28:16. > :28:21.of the wind and rain will ease down. Patchy rain reaching the south-east.
:28:21. > :28:25.That will clear through. Sunday is looking good. A dazzling day.
:28:25. > :28:31.Chillier. Some of the showers over the north-west will turn wintry.
