President Putin calls for the West to condemn it. Now it | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Referring to the apologies, he added: | :00:00. | :02:05. | |
Disability campaigners welcome his resignation, saying his remarks | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
expose a deep seated ignorance. I think the fact that disabled people | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
should be questioned whether or not they have sex is ridiculous. | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
Disabled people are having sex just like everybody else around the | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
country is having sex. It is now one's business. There are local | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
elections next month. Swindon's Tory's are defending a one seat | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
majority. Opponents say the mayor should now resign as a councillor. | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
Spent six months denying he actually said it. He is coming out with an | :02:41. | :02:49. | |
apology which is very half`hearted. One statement, one slip of the time, | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
should not necessarily mean you should not remain as a councillor. | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
This evening there is a protest demanding he resigns. He has told us | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
he has no intention of leaving politics. | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
A woman in Bicester's been taken to hospital after a car crashed into | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
the shop she was working in. Here's what the Co`op store on Bassett | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
Avenue looked like after the crash this lunchtime. Emergency services | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
were called and the female driver was treated for shock. People | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
working nearby said it was extremely lucky nobody was more seriously | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
hurt. The road was closed while police recovered the car. We heard | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
the bang, rushed out to see what had happened. Crowds of people were | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
flocking towards Co`op so we went across the road to have a look and | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
see what had happened and there was a car inside the shop. Fire engines | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
and ambulances came pretty quickly. The main concern is, is someone | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
hurt? Improvements to health services in | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
Buckinghamshire have made them much safer for patients, according to a | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
new review. The county's hospitals were placed in special measures last | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
year following a damning report into 14 NHS trusts across the country. | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
Today officials have been explaining what changes have been made and what | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
lessons have been learnt. It was a report that came as a | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
severe blow to Buckinghamshire health care NHS Trust. Numerous | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
examples of poor care and nursing standards, a list of worrying | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
problems, not least that more people were dying out of hours because of a | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
lack of staff. Work on rectifying the situation started quickly. It is | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
now nine months later and the review of what has changed has been | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
completed. Health bosses have been in the building behind me answering | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
serious questions about improvements. They say they have | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
employed more staff, more people with the right skills working at the | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
right time of day. The result, they said, is that fewer people have | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
died. Overall the Trust says things are improving at hospitals in | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
Buckinghamshire. Hospital infections like MRSA and C. Difficile have been | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
reduced. The number of patients dying at weekends has gone down over | :05:01. | :05:09. | |
the last three years. The Trust has also reported that the overall risk | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
at hospitals has been decreased but there is still work to be done. We | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
have to ensure there is the right health delivery for the residents of | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
Buckinghamshire bearing in mind the national changes that all of these | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
trusts have to make throughout the country. For patients, it is a | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
start, but some feel there are still problems. There are places and parts | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
of the service that has to be improved. I was talking to somebody | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
last night about the out of hours service in Buckinghamshire and there | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
are parts of it that are not very good. He had a long wait. The Trust | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
agrees. It recognises it still has a long way to go. But it says overall | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
the standards of health care in Buckinghamshire have gone up. The | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
real test will be in two months when the results of a new inspection | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
carried out just a few weeks ago will be published. | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
Thousands of fish have had to be hauled out of a canal in Swindon | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
because of problems caused by illegal fishermen. The borough | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
council says it's caught and removed more than a tonne of fish from the | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
Wiltshire and Berkshire canal at Kingshill. It follows complaints | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
from dog walkers about the illegal fishermen. The council says it took | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
thousands of fish out and moved them to lakes because it can't afford to | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
pay for round the clock patrols. We always used to get the herons along | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
here and with them taking the fish out there is no food for the herons | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
so the herons are going to be gone as well. We are running out of | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
wildlife down here. Buying a house is said to be one of | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
the most stressful times of your life. Now an Oxford woman is pushing | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
the government to change the law to protect house buyers. Kate Astley | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
was days away from buying her first home when the seller increased the | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
price by ?13,000. It is every house buyer's worst | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
nightmare. You have spent hundreds if not thousands of pounds on fees | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
all ready for the big move, only to be told the seller is demanding more | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
cash to complete. This is exactly what happened to Kate. We went all | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
the way through the process, engaging solicitors, paying the | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
survey fees, and getting our mortgage set`up. Right at the last | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
moment, we were about to exchange contracts, and we got a phone call | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
saying we are ready to go if you put in an extra ?13,000 towards the | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
property. Kate fell foul of a new phenomena being named ghost | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
gazumping. Sellers hike up the price at the last minute despite there | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
being no other buyers. She is so angry about what happened she is | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
campaigning for a change in the law. I want there to be a small agreement | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
put in place at the beginning of the conveyancing process which shares | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
the risk between the buyer and the seller. It means that when the buyer | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
puts in money, if the seller does not go through with the sale they | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
are liable for that payment. If they have done it in bad faith. Local | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
estate agent Mark says his profession is not to blame as they | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
want the deal to go through as much as anyone else but he is confident | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
he knows what is going on. It is looking after number one. If they | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
are seeing house prices rise, a small increase is quite a lot of | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
cash and it takes a long time to earn that cash and therefore it is | :08:25. | :08:31. | |
protecting our own position. For the government's part they insist the | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
current system works. They say there are a range of options for both | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
buyers and sellers to agree upon if they want to get more commitment | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
from one another so it seems for people like Kate the fear of ghost | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
gazumping may be around for some time yet. | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
One of Oxfordshire's busiest roads is to close over the summer. A | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
section of the A420 near Shrivenham will be shut for seven weeks for | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
major resurfacing work. People living in the area are worried about | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
the closure, but the council says it needs to be done. | :09:05. | :09:14. | |
This is a quiet village on the edge of Oxfordshire but then a few weeks | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
thousands of extra vehicles could be using it to get around roadworks | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
when the A420 is closed for repairs. The A420 has around 20,000 vehicle | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
movements a days you can imagine all of that traffic coming through the | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
High Street, it is going to be potentially lethal. Everyone | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
recognises the A420 is in need of repair is. Potholes and subsidence | :09:41. | :09:48. | |
are evident. From July the 21st round two and a half miles of this | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
road will be closed from year and will be almost completely | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
restructured. The council says it will put weight limits in place and | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
have diversions for each GB 's but it means journeys will take longer | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
for everyone. Smaller cars and vans will have to navigate the back | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
roads. The roadworks have to be done. It is a question of how best | :10:16. | :10:23. | |
to manage the traffic. We have closed it for the job to speed of | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
time during the summer holidays. If we decided to do it by temporary | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
traffic lights there would be traffic jams and even more | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
bottlenecks. The council says it is confident the work will be done on | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
time and the road should be open again by early September. | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
I'll have the headlines at 8pm and a full bulletin at 10:25pm. | :10:47. | :10:53. | |
right in the autumn. A major road through West Sussex was closed for | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
several hours today following an accident. A car, van and lorry | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
collided on the A27 at Arundel just before midday. A 57`year`old woman | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
from Littlehampton was taken to hospital with suspected pelvic | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
injuries. The 36`year`old lorry driver, who's from the Netherlands, | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving. | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
Still to come in this evening's South Today: It's a full`on assault | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
as England's women rugby players prepare for the World Cup. | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
A waste of time, energy and money ` that's how a group of parents have | :11:19. | :11:25. | |
described trying to open a new free school in Wokingham. It was due to | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
open in 2016 and they'd started recruiting parents and finding a | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
site. But seven months after giving their backing, Wokingham Borough | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
Council says it will open its own school instead. Ben Moore reports. | :11:38. | :11:44. | |
Starting a new school from scratch is no walk in the park as school | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
group will tell you. The say the very council who supported them is | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
no undercutting them by building its own academy. It was a big shock | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
because we had always been in consultation with the borough | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
council and had kept them involved with what we were doing. We do feel | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
let down by the Council, the question now is whether they can | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
deliver. School places are in short supply here. The council admits it | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
will run out of secondary school places by the 2017 academic year. A | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
new academy the say was always within its plans. There are beds | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
going forward to the Department for Education where groups of parents | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
have done it also alongside the local authority. We would be happy | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
to support them doing that if they wanted to as well. This was the most | :12:45. | :12:52. | |
likely site for the free school. Some say the council's plans to open | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
its own school in 2016 are ambitious. Parents say they hope the | :12:58. | :13:04. | |
council school plans are not a ploy ahead of upcoming local elections. | :13:05. | :13:12. | |
Pubs and clubs in Southampton could be charged extra for selling alcohol | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
after midnight. The City Council is to start consulting on introducing a | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
late`night levy from next February. It will be used to fund taxi | :13:23. | :13:31. | |
marshals, extra CCTV and street cleaning. The same levy was | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
introduced in Newcastle last autumn. How has that been working in | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
Newcastle? Initially all be licensees were against it because | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
turkeys do not vote for Christmas. Nobody wants to pay tax. We found | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
out by working with the City Council and getting the best reduction in | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
the tax it is working very well. Do you see that you should contribute | :13:59. | :14:06. | |
to the city centre? Nightlife causes disorder and disruption for those | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
living nearby. It does but our local newspaper did the calculations and | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
find out that the 35 top premises, there are 400 in a square mile, | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
already paid enough to cover all the bills so we are already doing our | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
sheer by paying late`night levy but if it is spent correctly it can | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
benefit everybody. I'd macro do you think it is being spent correctly? | :14:35. | :14:42. | |
Absolutely. I have just left the meeting thrashing out where we all | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
believe it should be spent. We did that successfully. Listening to that | :14:47. | :14:54. | |
is a counsellor from Southampton. Is this levy the only way you can pay | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
for these services bearing in mind you already pay for business rates | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
and they have put up night`time parking in the city? Absolutely. It | :15:05. | :15:13. | |
is a lot of money. The situation we find ourselves in is either we have | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
to withdraw our support for the city centre economy or find another way | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
of paying for it. The idea behind the levy is to find another way of | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
paying for it. Like Newcastle, we will work with the trade to | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
establish how this money will be spent. I think it could lead to a | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
better outcome for the city. 77% of this levy goes to the police to | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
support the policing of the night`time economy. That takes half | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
of the policing resource that is on duty on a Friday and Saturday night | :15:51. | :15:57. | |
in the city. We think there is an opportunity to invest that money and | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
free up some for the outer suburbs. Newcastle are ahead of the game, a | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
party city, Southampton is a big student city. I think that is a big | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
driver for us. We have seen how successfully it has been introduced | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
in Newcastle and we hope to do it the same way. What advice would you | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
give to Southampton? They must give a reduction to those who have best | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
practice. That draws standards upwards. Thank you. It is estimated | :16:36. | :16:49. | |
as many as 50,000 people in the UK are lower limb amputees. Research is | :16:50. | :16:57. | |
at Southampton University have no developed pressure sensors. These | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
could also be used in other ways to prevent unnecessary pain and | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
treatment. This man had an amputation below his right knee soon | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
after he was born and then above the knee in his teens. Now 26, he is | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
helping researchers develop an early warning system to ensure artificial | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
limbs remain well fitted despite the stresses and strains of everyday | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
use. It is thought there are about 50,000 lower limb amputees in the | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
UK. There is long`standing evidence that many do not use their | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
prospective cleanser as much as they would like because of discomfort. | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
The Stump can change in shape and size even during the course of a | :17:45. | :17:53. | |
day. It can rob, create source, blisters. Because it hurts every | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
step because you are having to put all of your weight on it you are | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
less likely to want to do things. The sensor is thin and flexible like | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
a small postage stamp. It is take to a liner, essentially a sock. It is | :18:09. | :18:17. | |
then placed within the artificial limb. Off you go. The sensor is now | :18:18. | :18:26. | |
picking up information about pressure on the stump and whether it | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
is robbing. That information is being passed on to researchers and | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
clinicians who can identify the need for any adjustments to prevent | :18:37. | :18:43. | |
discomfort and pain. The research is planned to develop a system of | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
alerts for tablets and smartphones in the sensor acts as a second skin | :18:48. | :18:54. | |
warning of potential problems. A large number of lower limb amputees | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
may suffer from nerve damage and with a reduced skin sensation, that | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
means they do not feel the pain of tissue injury. It may be too late | :19:05. | :19:12. | |
because once the soft tissue is compromised then it could get | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
infected and it could be really serious. If all goes well the | :19:17. | :19:25. | |
sensors could be available to NHS patients within three years and | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
there may be more uses like shoe insoles for diabetics and in | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
wheelchairs and mattresses preventing pain and distress. | :19:34. | :19:39. | |
Opponents to plans to build a second runway at Gatwick Airport have | :19:40. | :19:42. | |
launched their campaign to fight it. Those behind the Gatwick's Big | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
Enough campaign have sent out thousands of car stickers and | :19:46. | :19:52. | |
leaflets. Earlier this month, the airport began consulting on its | :19:53. | :19:54. | |
expansion plans. There are three different options with a new runway | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
to the south of the existing one. Nearly all of the south's beaches | :20:00. | :20:02. | |
tested in this year's Good Beach Guide have passed with flying | :20:03. | :20:05. | |
colours. The latest report to be released from the Marine | :20:06. | :20:07. | |
Conservation Society shows that all East Dorset beaches bar Boscombe and | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
Swanage made it into the very top category. On the Isle of Wight, | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
Bembridge and Shanklin were also the only ones not to get full marks. | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
While in Hampshire the only beach falling short of outstanding was | :20:20. | :20:30. | |
Southsea. No sport. I was worried you were not going to come back to | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
the newsroom today. You have been doing hard`core training? Yes, you | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
will see I was unleashed on a cargo net and I wondered if I would make | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
it back. Reading moved back into the play`off places on goal difference | :20:46. | :20:47. | |
after a one`all draw with Leicester City last night. Defender Alex | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
Pearce headed the Royals in front from Jordan Obita's free`kick early | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
on. But Danny Drinkwater drove in an equaliser to pull Leicester level | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
after half an hour. Reading are now winless in seven at home and with | :20:58. | :21:08. | |
just one win in five overall. Let's look at the play`off contenders in | :21:09. | :21:08. | |
the championship. separated into four teams, competing | :21:09. | :21:53. | |
against one another and the clock. The idea is to overcome obstacles on | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
the course and then transferred back to the dog the pitch. It is about | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
decision`making under made it two wins from two to start | :22:02. | :23:47. | |
the defence of their Elite League title. A maximum 15 points from new | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
captain Macheck Janovski helped them to a 49 to 41 victory over Coventry | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
at Wimborne Road. Next up for the Pirates is a double header against | :23:57. | :24:04. | |

Scans of the EU had suggested she would give birth to five lambs but | :27:24. | :27:32. | |
an extra one popped out. Two are normally good, three is a bonus, but | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
six? Their claims are delayed in being processed | :27:40. | :27:39. | |
normally good, three is a bonus, but six? That is all from us, have a | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
lovely evening. Good night. Good night. | :27:44. | :27:48. |
