All 25 members of Jersey's St Helier lifeboat crew have resigned | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
in a dispute with the RNLI over the sacking of the coxswain. | :00:13. | :00:18. | |
Andy Hibbs, who's volunteered with the charity for more than | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
two decades, says there's a culture of bullying. | :00:21. | :00:21. | |
The BBC has been contacted by another RNLI station that | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
claims its volunteers were also bullied. | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
They're the emergency services of the sea - | :00:29. | :00:35. | |
volunteers with the RNLI regularly risk their lives in all kinds | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
But if there's an emergency today, this lifeboat won't be going out | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
Yesterday coxswain Andy Hibbs was sacked, and his crew has | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
He says he's being punished for standing up for himself and them. | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
There's all sorts of issues obviously that I can't go | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
into because we've got five days to appeal. | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
But an allegation was made against me, it was investigated, | :01:00. | :01:05. | |
I was found not guilty and on the back of that | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
investigation, quite clearly shows that the person who made | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
So there's serious implications all the way through, but the thing is, | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
at the end of the day, myself and my crew have been | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
put under immense pressure, and bullied by a senior member | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
of the RNLI through no fault of our own. | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
Commenting on the allegations of bullying, the RNLI said... | :01:24. | :01:46. | |
But having no St Helier lifeboat crew during the hot, | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
sunny Easter holidays poses a health and safety concern, | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
although lifeboats from Guernsey and Alderney will be | :01:54. | :01:54. | |
Jersey's harbour master says he's confident they'll be able to respond | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
There's a range of options we've got. | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
We just have to respond appropriately, depending | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
But I can reassure everybody that as long as they're well prepared | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
and properly equipped, there's no reason at all why | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
they shouldn't go out to sea this weekend. | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
A protest is planned on Sunday to support Andy Hibbs and his crew. | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
He has five days from Monday to appeal against his sacking. | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
In the meantime, this station will remain empty. | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
Julie Flanagan, BBC Channel Islands, Jersey. | :02:34. | :02:34. | |
More than 40 people are now working on a murder investigation, | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
following the death of a woman in Jersey. | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
Ana Maria Rebelo's body was discovered at a | :02:40. | :02:40. | |
Tributes are describing her as a "bubbly" person | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
Three days on, it's hard to believe this is the house where 51-year-old | :02:45. | :02:51. | |
Ana Rebelo was found strangled to death. | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
This sole bunch of daffodils on the doorstep isn't | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
A different scene on Tuesday, when police were called | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
to the Victoria Street property, and later arrested a 58-year-old | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
man, who's since been released on bail. | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
Today, officers say they're working with Ana's extended family | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
Ana was a member of the congregation here at St Thomas's Church, | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
where people are shocked at her death. | :03:18. | :03:25. | |
We have all been bruised by a thing like this, | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
especially the Portuguese community. | :03:28. | :03:28. | |
This is the third such tragedy we have had in | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
She always said hello, she was a smiley person. | :03:34. | :03:49. | |
Pipa told us Ana was a family friend, who always had time | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
Rory, who works at a phone shop where Ana was a customer, | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Claudia says, the last time they met, Ana talked about how happy | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
Investigators are continuing forensic work in the area today, | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
looking at CCTV footage, social media and phone records, | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
focusing on Ana's last known movements, to find out | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
what was behind the brutal act that ended a woman's life. | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
Luxmy Gopal, BBC Channel Islands, Jersey. | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
Sark residents calling for changes to the island's election and voting | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
system met with the MP in charge of the Channel Islands' link | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
On his first official visit to the bailiwick, Sir Oliver Heald, | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
who is the UK's Minister of State for Courts and Justice visited Sark | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
The group Sark First say a solution needs to be found | :04:38. | :04:45. | |
to the political disenfranchisement felt following uncontested | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
The Royal Air Force aerobatic team, known as the Red Arrows, will not be | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
in any of the Channel Islands air displays this September. | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
A clash in their event calender mean spectators will not | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
view their iconic colourful performance which has | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
been part of the event for over half a century. | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
Visit Jersey are remaining optimistic that their absence | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
won't affect tourism too much but organisers are disappointed. | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
I know from experience that everybody goes to the display to see | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
the red arrows and I heard that replacement, whatever it may be, I | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
am still working on that, will be equally exciting and that the people | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
stay to the end as well. We are going to have a brilliant display | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
anyway. It is a disappointment because of the long association with | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
Red Arrows in Jersey. It's been a great day in the islands | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
with plenty of sunshine. More of the same would be | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
nice for the weekend. The man who can tell us is Dan Downs | :05:41. | :05:42. | |
he has your forecast. Thank you. I find day for the | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
islands today and a similar picture into the weekend. Staying fine and | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
dry will stop there is the risk of some morning mist and fog patches. | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
We have high pressure with us, keeping things settled at the | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
moment. It does slip away to the east during because of the weekend. | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
Keep things fine into Sunday but by Monday this weather front here is | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
moving down across. Turning rather cloudy and cool. Not a great deal of | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
rain on that front by the time it reaches us. This has been the | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
picture to today. Hardly any cloud in the sky for the islands or indeed | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
England or Wales. It stays clear for most of us overnight tonight. The | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
wind coming in, a bit of a breeze but I think the most of us | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
temperatures are likely to dip overnight between eight and nine | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
Celsius. Risk of mist and fog patches forming boat. First thing | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
tomorrow morning. Quickly blown away and then it is a fine and great day. | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
Ealing warm, the air mass coming up from the south. Highs of 18 or 19 | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
Celsius for Jersey. The UV level and the pollen will both be high. | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
Similar into Sunday. More anyway of sunshine but the risk of cloud | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
pitching in, particularly into the afternoon and around the coast. The | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
chance of mist patches early on. The change comes in on Monday, turning | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
cloudier and cooler. Have a good weekend. Looking good for the | :07:06. | :07:11. | |
weekend. Plenty of barbecues and getting out and about in the | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
sunshine. Take care, it is going to be very hot. | :07:16. | :07:16. | |
That's your news this Friday evening, BBC Radio Guernsey | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
and Jersey will have bulletins from six tomorrow morning | :07:19. | :07:25. | |
And through the weekend. There is plenty information on mine as well. | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
Good night. Monday, and north-westerly wind will | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
drag in more cloud and temperatures will be down by 8-9 . | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
Hello, my advice would be to make the most of the weather this | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
weekend, if you can. Because there will be a good day love sunshine on | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
offer and it will continue to warm up as well. This picture was taken | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
in Cumbria, at Workington, later in the afternoon. We got the sunshine | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
eventually in northern England but it's in the Northwest we have the | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
lowest temperatures at the moment. Under clear skies, | :08:02. | :08:02. |
