:00:21. > :00:24.shopkeeper who fought off armed raiders with a mop. I looked at the

:00:24. > :00:27.guy and thought, I do not care how big he is.

:00:27. > :00:30.Police vehicle crashes - more than 1,000 across the region in a year.

:00:30. > :00:33.The search for another firm to step in and save 200 council maintenance

:00:33. > :00:43.jobs. And the work here to discover the

:00:43. > :00:50.

:00:50. > :00:54.origins of the universe. Hello. First tonight, the shopkeepers who

:00:54. > :00:56.fought of armed raiders with a mop and a hockey stick. Dinesh Gorania

:00:56. > :01:01.and his son Kishan were closing the store in Rushden in

:01:01. > :01:04.Northamptonshire on Friday. Three masked men pulled up in a car and

:01:04. > :01:14.try to force their way inside, but they hadn't counted on the father

:01:14. > :01:15.

:01:15. > :01:19.and son putting up such a fight. For Dinesh Gorania, today's papers

:01:19. > :01:26.are a little easier to sell because he is featured on the front pages.

:01:26. > :01:30.This is why. Last Friday, as they were shutting up shop, he and his

:01:30. > :01:35.son came under attack. CCTV shows a masked man with a metal bar

:01:35. > :01:39.shouting abuse as he tries to get into the store, but Dinesh Gorania

:01:39. > :01:45.is having none of it. He picks up the mopey has been cleaning with

:01:45. > :01:52.and use it to beat off the attacker. His son then brings out a hockey

:01:52. > :01:57.stick. Realising they are defeated, the robbers leave empty handed.

:01:57. > :02:02.looked at the galley and thought, I do not care about how big he is.

:02:02. > :02:09.got the mop and I got the bat and we went for them. We just kept them

:02:09. > :02:19.outside the shop to stop no-one got hurt, that is the main thing. --

:02:19. > :02:19.

:02:19. > :02:22.outside a shop. No-one got hurt. Dinesh Gorania has been working

:02:22. > :02:28.here for 20 years and says he has been robbed before, but this time

:02:28. > :02:32.he and his son seemed to have become local heroes. I think it is

:02:32. > :02:37.absolutely terrible but the way he has reacted to it is absolutely

:02:37. > :02:41.marvellous. It is very brave but I think I would have done the same.

:02:41. > :02:44.It will always be a difficult call for people who find themselves in

:02:44. > :02:48.this situation because we would always advocate keeping yourself

:02:48. > :02:53.safe, taking reasonable steps to keep yourself and your family at a

:02:53. > :02:56.distance, but people have to make their own judgment and clearly the

:02:56. > :03:00.shopkeeper and his son thought they were doing the right thing. Indeed,

:03:00. > :03:05.they both escaped without injury and the offenders escape without

:03:05. > :03:09.stealing anything. Police also say that the car used in this bungled

:03:09. > :03:16.robbery has been discovered, but they are keen with anyone -- for

:03:16. > :03:24.anyone with information to come forward. As for Dinesh Gorania, it

:03:24. > :03:27.is business as usual, but the mop is being kept closer at hand.

:03:27. > :03:30.Figures obtained by Look East have revealed that in this region in

:03:30. > :03:33.just one year there have been more than 1,000 crashes involving police

:03:33. > :03:35.vehicles. These figures come from a request we submitted to our police

:03:35. > :03:38.forces under the Freedom of Information Act. They reveal that

:03:38. > :03:41.in the year to last April, Suffolk police had the highest number of

:03:41. > :03:44.crashes, at 315. Second highest was Essex, which has had 295 crashes,

:03:44. > :03:51.seven of which led to someone being seriously injured. Norfolk has 419

:03:51. > :03:53.vehicles which have been involved in 230 collisions. While in

:03:53. > :03:55.Northamptonshire and Cambridgeshire the numbers were slightly lower.

:03:55. > :04:02.And we were unable to obtain figures for Bedfordshire and

:04:02. > :04:05.Hertfordshire. These figures include bumps and scrapes and car-

:04:05. > :04:15.parking scratches, but also the more serious crashes, like the one

:04:15. > :04:16.

:04:16. > :04:23.which injured Special Constable Reece Clarke. 19 years old and a

:04:23. > :04:26.promising young saxophone player, close to his sister at the centre

:04:26. > :04:31.of family life and a talented academic, but Reece Clarke always

:04:31. > :04:37.knew he wanted to be a policeman. He used to work with me during the

:04:37. > :04:44.weekend at weekends he would do eight-hour shifts. It takes 18

:04:44. > :04:47.months to get into the police, so you have to become a special first.

:04:47. > :04:53.His role as a volunteer special constable gave invaluable

:04:53. > :04:56.experience, but in July he and another policeman responded to an

:04:56. > :05:04.alarm in Basildon and their vehicle was involved in a collision with a

:05:04. > :05:08.taxi. He has severe brain damage, fractured ribs, punctured lungs.

:05:08. > :05:14.And he had a bit of a scarred where he had a bash on the side of his

:05:14. > :05:20.head. A little bit of physio is missing. His family make the trip

:05:20. > :05:24.to Middlesex every day. And being the mother, you are there to

:05:24. > :05:29.protect. I just want to make sure that he is all right, but it

:05:29. > :05:36.definitely has not sunk in. When it does sink in I do not know how I

:05:36. > :05:41.will react. His parents say they do not hold anyone responsible.

:05:41. > :05:49.would not blame anyone for the accident, it is one of them things.

:05:49. > :05:52.I want to be positive. That is all we can say, really. A police

:05:52. > :05:58.officer will appear in court next month, charged with dangerous

:05:58. > :06:04.driving, but Reece's parents are fully focused on getting their son

:06:04. > :06:07.back home. Essex Police told us any serious crash involving a police

:06:07. > :06:09.vehicle is thoroughly investigated and the driving history of officers

:06:09. > :06:12.is carefully monitored. Earlier, I spoke to Chief Inspector Adrian

:06:12. > :06:15.Dawson from Suffolk Police, which has the highest collision figures.

:06:15. > :06:24.He said the majority of them were minor, but the nature of police

:06:24. > :06:28.driving needed to be taken into account. Some of the accidents

:06:28. > :06:32.included on this are as the result of some police interventions and

:06:32. > :06:36.also some criminal activity in relation to the use of vehicles on

:06:36. > :06:41.the road. We do take it very seriously and every single accident

:06:41. > :06:46.is reviewed by a supervisor at the time, an accident book is completed,

:06:46. > :06:50.and then it is reviewed by driver training. Any issues with a

:06:51. > :06:55.particular officer are obviously looked at and dealt with. Is there

:06:55. > :06:59.anything to do with the culture and attitude that maybe when you are in

:06:59. > :07:03.a police vehicle you feel more invincible in some way? I think you

:07:03. > :07:10.have to remember that we do not feel invincible. We are there to

:07:10. > :07:13.serve the public. Sometimes if we're making an emergency response,

:07:13. > :07:17.we are thinking of getting to help that member of the public and

:07:17. > :07:23.sometimes that might take priority over some of the standards of

:07:23. > :07:26.driving in certain instances. all of the officers involved in

:07:26. > :07:34.emergency response trains to advanced standards? The answer is

:07:34. > :07:40.no. It is a very intense course that is quite expensive in time for

:07:40. > :07:44.the officers to go on that. Also the cost of the training, so we

:07:45. > :07:50.cannot afford to train all officers to that particular level. Talking

:07:50. > :07:53.of cost, obviously the cost of any collision comes back to the force

:07:53. > :07:58.in some respect and therefore back to the public. Is this something

:07:58. > :08:02.that concerns you? Like any organisation, cost is of prime

:08:02. > :08:08.importance. We are all taxpayers are cells and therefore the money

:08:08. > :08:13.comes out of our pocket as well as everyone else's. It is our duty to

:08:13. > :08:17.look after our equipment. We do 7.4 million miles in a year, which is a

:08:17. > :08:23.massive amount. Therefore, you're going to have minor accidents

:08:23. > :08:27.during the course of the year to. We would obviously, again, not

:08:27. > :08:35.being complacent, try to reduce it as much as possible. Thank you very

:08:35. > :08:38.much. Thank you. People who live near the Coryton oil refinery in

:08:38. > :08:41.Essex have told Look East they're worried about possible job losses

:08:41. > :08:44.after the company which owns it said it would file for bankruptcy.

:08:44. > :08:47.As we've heard, there are also fears that petrol suppliers to

:08:47. > :08:56.Essex and the South East could be affected. Gareth George is at

:08:56. > :09:00.Coryton now. It is after dark, when the Coryton's -- the Coryton

:09:00. > :09:06.refinery's lights come on that you can see it's a vast scale. Many

:09:06. > :09:10.jobs in Essex rely on this refinery. Places roundabout only really

:09:10. > :09:13.exists because this industry is here, and people round here are

:09:13. > :09:18.desperately hoping that this refinery survives this crisis. This

:09:18. > :09:23.was the reaction earlier today. is not a surprise because we have

:09:23. > :09:28.been aware of it before Christmas. We have friends who work there and,

:09:28. > :09:33.yes, I think it has been a matter of when rather than if. Absolutely

:09:33. > :09:37.tragic. My husband worked at the refinery for a number of years. We

:09:37. > :09:42.are pensioners. If it was not about refinery I would not have been nice

:09:42. > :09:51.like that I have now. It would be a shame to lose that expertise from

:09:51. > :09:56.this area. I think BP should take it over. It is really important,

:09:56. > :10:00.not just to the town but the Essex as a whole. So what happens now?

:10:00. > :10:06.Are worryingly, very few tankers have been coming and going today.

:10:06. > :10:11.Meanwhile, Price Waterhouse, the company trying to sort out the

:10:11. > :10:17.financial mess of the parent company, is trying to get Coryton

:10:17. > :10:22.back on scheme as soon as it can. If it does, supplies should hold up.

:10:22. > :10:29.There is anecdotal evidence that some garages in Essex have been

:10:29. > :10:35.busier than usual today. The Unite union has said that there is no

:10:35. > :10:39.need for panic buying. Still to come on Look East: Should we be

:10:39. > :10:42.told exactly how our tax is spent? And the football club fighting a

:10:42. > :10:51.bizarre legal battle to stay in the ground it has called home for 90

:10:51. > :10:53.years. The city council in Norwich says key services such as street

:10:53. > :10:55.cleaning will be maintained. The existing contractor, Fountains,

:10:55. > :11:05.collapsed yesterday and made 153 staff redundant. It's the second

:11:05. > :11:07.

:11:07. > :11:12.such collapse to hit council services in the city in 18 months.

:11:12. > :11:14.A reassuring sight for Norwich householders today - a their bins

:11:14. > :11:20.were being collected despite the collapse of the company which is

:11:20. > :11:25.contracted to do that. Fountains called in administrators yesterday

:11:25. > :11:30.and made 153 workers redundant. They worked on a contract to clean

:11:30. > :11:37.streets and maintain parks and cemeteries. A further 60 workers

:11:37. > :11:45.collect rubbish and recycling, our role which is sub-contractor. Those

:11:45. > :11:50.workers remained in post. The sub- contractor is not in financial

:11:50. > :11:55.crisis but is talking to the council about its future contract.

:11:55. > :12:04.A previous contractor went bust in 2010. This raises questions about

:12:04. > :12:07.how these contracts have been managed. Services should be

:12:07. > :12:11.provided in house. The council should provide them directly. It

:12:11. > :12:16.does not make sense for the council to be paying a private company to

:12:16. > :12:21.pay people to clean the streets and empty the bins when the council

:12:21. > :12:24.could do it itself. A our ambition, and we will achieve it, is to make

:12:24. > :12:28.sure that people do not see any disruption in service. We then have

:12:28. > :12:38.to think about the provision of these contracts over a longer

:12:38. > :12:41.

:12:41. > :12:44.period. 52 Fountains staff in Essex have also been made redundant. Both

:12:44. > :12:47.Suffolk and Essex County Councils have finalised their budgets today.

:12:47. > :12:49.Once again, both are planning big savings, but they insist that most

:12:49. > :12:54.services will still be protected. Our political correspondent Andrew

:12:54. > :12:58.Sinclair is here. Another tough year? Yes, this easier two of the

:12:58. > :13:02.budget cuts. County councils are always most badly affected because

:13:02. > :13:11.they have the biggest budget and provide a more services. Essex

:13:12. > :13:15.County Council have approved �123 million of savings, Suffolk �26

:13:15. > :13:19.million and Norfolk at �44.5 million. A lot of them will come

:13:19. > :13:25.from back-office costs, doing things differently, trying to do

:13:25. > :13:32.things more efficiently. The councils are keen to stress that

:13:32. > :13:35.services will not be adversely affected. The school crossing

:13:35. > :13:38.patrol service is still available. We have made sure that the

:13:38. > :13:47.essential services are there. The people have shown us that these are

:13:47. > :13:51.services that they value. procure significant services from

:13:51. > :13:56.outside of the county council. We make better use of IT. It is a real

:13:56. > :14:01.mix of projects that we have got together to take that sort of money

:14:01. > :14:06.out of the Budget. But, Andrew, there surely has to be some pain?

:14:06. > :14:13.Yes, adult Social Services have been badly hit. Some bus subsidies

:14:13. > :14:19.may go as well. Once again, across the board, most of the job losses

:14:19. > :14:22.will be in the back office. If they are cutting about -- talking about

:14:22. > :14:26.cutting back room staff, that has an impact on their ability to

:14:27. > :14:32.deliver services. It is going to be really huge. I do not think people

:14:32. > :14:37.really realise quite how deep it is going to impact on services. It is

:14:37. > :14:45.not all cut, cut, cut. There is more money for broadband and roads,

:14:45. > :14:48.but no-one is really enjoying this. Thank you. A teenager accused of

:14:48. > :14:51.murdering her neighbour had a violent past, a court was told

:14:51. > :14:54.today. Shane Boulton was stabbed to death in Great Yarmouth. Norwich

:14:54. > :14:57.Crown Court heard Katy Bown had a history of self-harm and violence,

:14:57. > :15:00.and once pulled a knife on a family member. She denies murder. Essex

:15:00. > :15:02.Police say the Sunday Times has finally handed over e-mails

:15:02. > :15:05.relating to their investigation into the Energy Secretary, Chris

:15:05. > :15:08.Huhne. The e-mails were sent between the paper and Mr Huhne's

:15:08. > :15:11.former wife. It has been claimed she took the penalty points when he

:15:11. > :15:14.was caught speeding on the M11. He has denied the claims. In football,

:15:14. > :15:16.Norwich City have confirmed the signing of Leeds midfielder Johnny

:15:16. > :15:19.Howson. The 23-year-old has joined on a three-and-a-half-year contract

:15:19. > :15:22.for a fee thought to be in the region of �2 million. He made

:15:22. > :15:25.nearly 200 appearances for Leeds, scoring 28 goals. The England

:15:25. > :15:27.under-21 international injured his knee last month. But he has passed

:15:27. > :15:31.a full medical before signing. He joins former Leeds team-mate

:15:31. > :15:33.Bradley Johnson at Carrow Road. A new animal disease which can cause

:15:33. > :15:36.birth defects in livestock has been confirmed in Norfolk and Suffolk.

:15:36. > :15:45.It is the first time the Schmallenberg virus has been

:15:46. > :15:51.detected here. Farmers have been urged to be vigilant. For 30 years,

:15:51. > :15:54.Robin Richards has been running his dairy farm in Suffolk. Like most

:15:54. > :15:58.farmers he has had to deal with many animal health scares down the

:15:58. > :16:04.years. His farm is right next to a rare breeds centre where there was

:16:04. > :16:11.an outbreak of blue tongue four years ago. With that, DEFRA was

:16:11. > :16:17.here and we vaccinated. With this Schmallenberg one, it may become

:16:17. > :16:27.worse. We cannot really tell. One would not consider it at present

:16:27. > :16:29.

:16:29. > :16:33.danger. Dairy herds are very robust. The new disease can cause

:16:33. > :16:40.deformities. It first emerged in Germany and the Netherlands last

:16:40. > :16:45.summer. It spread into Belgium. It was brought by flies across the

:16:45. > :16:53.North Sea to England. There are unusual signs associated with this

:16:53. > :16:57.disease, particularly stillborns, abortions and unusual birth defects.

:16:57. > :17:01.But also with cattle in Germany and the Netherlands they are picking up

:17:01. > :17:07.on loss of appetite, loss of condition and productivity, fever

:17:07. > :17:12.and, in some cases, severe diarrhoea. This calf born this

:17:12. > :17:22.morning is found to be in perfect health. The disease has been found

:17:22. > :17:27.

:17:27. > :17:36.You're watching Look East from the BBC. Coming up: The cutting-edge

:17:36. > :17:39.Cambridge science discovering the Let's be honest, no-one really

:17:39. > :17:43.likes paying tax, but would it be any better if we actually knew

:17:43. > :17:48.where our money was being spent? If you earn �25,500 a year you pay

:17:48. > :17:55.�5,979 in tax. Of that, roughly �2,000 goes towards pensions and

:17:55. > :17:58.benefits. Around �1,000 goes to the NHS. �339 is spent on defence, and

:17:58. > :18:05.border control costs �20. The Ipswich MP Ben Gummer wants

:18:05. > :18:09.everybody to know exactly where their tax is being spent. Tomorrow

:18:09. > :18:16.he is introducing a Bill in the Commons, and we can talk to him in

:18:16. > :18:20.Westminster now. Why do you think it is important that we know the

:18:20. > :18:24.detail? Because we have a weird relationship with government at the

:18:24. > :18:28.moment. They make us pay tax but they do not tell us how it is spent.

:18:28. > :18:33.If you went into a restaurant or went shopping, you get an itemised

:18:33. > :18:38.list at the end of the day about what you have spent, but in this

:18:38. > :18:43.case probably our biggest bill of all, even bigger than the mortgage

:18:43. > :18:50.for most people, we get no idea of how it is spent on our behalf.

:18:50. > :19:00.figures are interesting. For example, public sector pensions

:19:00. > :19:01.

:19:01. > :19:03.costs �797. Do you think this will fuel public debate? Will it caused

:19:03. > :19:08.controversy with people saying they do not want the money to be spent

:19:08. > :19:15.on certain things? That is the point it - it is supposed to fuel

:19:15. > :19:21.debate. Democracy is about having a lively discussion. Today the

:19:21. > :19:27.national debt past one trillion pounds for the first time. It is so

:19:27. > :19:31.big that none of us can relate to it. As politicians, it is much

:19:31. > :19:34.easier for me and my colleagues to try and have a proper discussion

:19:34. > :19:38.about the priorities that people want and the things that they want

:19:38. > :19:45.their money spent on. Do you think that the Government is sympathetic

:19:45. > :19:49.to this idea? Would they be a interested in doing this or would

:19:49. > :19:53.be just be more people work? Be I have had good noises from the

:19:53. > :19:57.Treasury. The Chancellor is behind it. Number Ten have been broadly

:19:57. > :20:02.warm about it. I think there is a groundswell of opinion that we

:20:02. > :20:05.should have some more transparency and Lawrence -- honesty from

:20:05. > :20:15.government. It is not a party political thing, it is just about

:20:15. > :20:16.

:20:16. > :20:18.better democracy and better politics. Thank you very much.

:20:18. > :20:21.100 metres underneath Geneva is a circular tunnel 27 kilometres long,

:20:21. > :20:24.and in it the world's top physicists are trying to recreate

:20:24. > :20:27.the conditions at the Big Bang when the universe began. It's called the

:20:27. > :20:30.Large Hadron Collider, and it is used to smash atoms together at

:20:30. > :20:33.almost the speed of light. Scientists from Cambridge have

:20:33. > :20:40.played a major part in the work so far, and now they are designing the

:20:40. > :20:45.next generation of equipment to tell us how the universe began.

:20:45. > :20:55.Shortly after the Big Bang, when the universe was created, the Higgs

:20:55. > :21:00.boson came into being and has been referred to as the God particle.

:21:00. > :21:07.Its discovery was one of the main targets of the Large Hadron

:21:07. > :21:12.Collider. Its collisions are so powerful that they recreate the

:21:12. > :21:14.conditions that existed shortly after the Big Bang. One scientist

:22:48. > :22:51.are caught up in a bizarre legal wrangle which could see them forced

:22:51. > :22:54.out of their ground. The Crabs have played at Cabbelll Park since 1922

:22:54. > :22:57.when they were bequeathed the land by a rich local landowner. But a

:22:57. > :23:00.clause stipulated the lease would expire 21 years after the death of

:23:00. > :23:10.King Edward VII's final descendant. And deciding when that happened has

:23:10. > :23:11.

:23:11. > :23:15.caused big problems. The King of Norway on a visit to the UK. When

:23:15. > :23:20.he died in 1991, not many people would have known that 21 years

:23:20. > :23:28.later his death could mean that Cromer Town football club would

:23:28. > :23:32.lose their ground. It was given in trust to the club and town by a

:23:32. > :23:37.wealthy local landowner. This is where it gets complicated. They can

:23:37. > :23:42.stay until 21 years after the death of the last descendant of King

:23:42. > :23:48.Edward VII. That descendant was thought to be the King of Norway.

:23:48. > :23:53.It appears to be common practice that when a charitable trust was

:23:53. > :24:00.set up in those days, they had to determine a means of deciding its

:24:00. > :24:05.end date. It was quite common to relate it to the reigning monarch

:24:05. > :24:13.of the time. Much examination of family trees followed. It may have

:24:13. > :24:19.seemed clear to some, but the Mayor of Cromer had other ideas. I asked

:24:19. > :24:24.if there were any descendants of Edward VII born after the document.

:24:24. > :24:33.I was told that there was the Earl of Harwood who, at this point last

:24:33. > :24:37.May, was still living. He was a descendant of Edward VII. He was in

:24:37. > :24:42.being in 1922 because he was in his mother's warm and was born two

:24:42. > :24:47.months later. This new descendant of Edward VII died last year. That

:24:47. > :24:56.means the club could have 20 years left at Cabbelll Park. But no-one

:24:56. > :25:04.knows for sure. What an extraordinary story! I am

:25:04. > :25:09.What an extraordinary story! I am It has not been the best of days,

:25:09. > :25:13.but I will start with some temperatures. This is a time of day

:25:13. > :25:19.when you expect temperatures to be falling but they are, in fact,

:25:19. > :25:28.lifting. The temperatures will continue to rise through the night.

:25:28. > :25:31.We have had a warm front crossing the region through the day. There

:25:31. > :25:36.will be a lot of cloud around tonight, some patchy rain and

:25:36. > :25:46.drizzle. Things will turn misty over night. By around 5am, this is

:25:46. > :25:47.

:25:47. > :25:52.where we think that temperatures will be. Tomorrow, the warm front

:25:52. > :25:56.clears away and we should see drier conditions for tomorrow. In between

:25:56. > :26:03.the warm front and the next front coming in, which is a cold front,

:26:03. > :26:09.we will have mild air. During the course of tomorrow, that mild air

:26:09. > :26:13.crosses, but the cold front is trying to push in some cold air.

:26:13. > :26:18.Tomorrow will be cloudy and mild. There is enough cloud to produce a

:26:18. > :26:28.sport or two of rain or drizzle, but it should be mainly dry through

:26:28. > :26:29.

:26:29. > :26:36.the day. Many locations could get into double figures. The wind will

:26:36. > :26:41.be light and moderate. As the cold front approaches, it will bring a

:26:41. > :26:46.band of squally rain overnight on Thursday night. There could be

:26:46. > :26:50.quite a lot of rain fall on this front. It should rattle through

:26:50. > :26:55.fairly quickly but it will be a wet start on Thursday, particularly in

:26:55. > :27:05.the East. There will be brighter skies behind it, much cooler

:27:05. > :27:06.

:27:06. > :27:12.temperatures. Behind it, or one or two blustery showers. We will be

:27:12. > :27:19.down to freezing on Thursday night, potentially some icy roads. One or

:27:19. > :27:23.two showers to start with on Thursday but mostly a dry, fine day.

:27:23. > :27:30.Some cooler air with us over the weekend. A bit of sunshine on

:27:30. > :27:33.Saturday, a little more cloud the on Sunday. There are nights where
