:00:31. > :00:37.those affected and a senior member of the government, along with the

:00:56. > :01:15.Good evening. We can reveal tonight that Labour will scrap the so—called

:01:15. > :01:20.bedroom tax if the party wins the next election. In an exclusive

:01:20. > :01:24.interview, Ed Miliband told us that he felt the measure was unfair.

:01:24. > :01:25.interview, Ed Miliband told us that felt it had led to some tenants

:01:25. > :01:29.being evicted from their homes. felt it had led to some tenants

:01:29. > :01:31.to remind you, the rules on housing benefit changed on April this year

:01:31. > :01:33.and that tenants will no longer benefit changed on April this year

:01:34. > :01:39.to claim their full housing benefit if they had a spare bedroom. Tenants

:01:39. > :01:45.were given a choice, downsize to a smaller home, or face a cut in

:01:45. > :01:50.benefits. It was quickly condemned as the bedroom tax. In our region,

:01:50. > :01:53.labour estimates that 50,000 tenants have been affected. Tonight, Ed

:01:53. > :02:05.Miliband tells this programme that Of all the recent welfare changes,

:02:05. > :02:07.this has probably been the most controversial. The government's

:02:07. > :02:11.intention was to cut the amount controversial. The government's

:02:11. > :02:16.spends on welfare and free up homes waiting for larger properties. But

:02:16. > :02:23.housing campaigners say it has caused misery for many. Research

:02:23. > :02:26.shows that 50% of people have gone into arrears with the first three

:02:26. > :02:32.months. These are people who have not been in arrears before. We have

:02:32. > :02:36.pushed them over the edge. Others questioned whether the policy is

:02:36. > :02:41.workable. A study by Cambridge University concluded it would take

:02:41. > :02:45.24 years to rehouse those affected. Tonight's moved by the Labour leader

:02:45. > :02:47.is eye—catching. And on the EU for a difficult conference, a chance to

:02:47. > :02:54.show that his party can come up difficult conference, a chance to

:02:54. > :02:56.real policies. What we're seeing is people potentially being evicted

:02:56. > :02:58.from their homes and it will not even save them what the government

:02:58. > :03:03.said it would save. Think it is even save them what the government

:03:03. > :03:08.right decision to make a fair tax change to say that we're going to

:03:08. > :03:13.get rid of the loopholes and get rid of the bedroom tax. It will be

:03:13. > :03:17.currently available to financial institutions. George Osborne cuts

:03:17. > :03:20.taxes for hedge funds is at the institutions. George Osborne cuts

:03:20. > :03:25.time as he introduced the bedroom tax. Most people will think that is

:03:25. > :03:31.not the right priority. Does this not give ammunition to critics who

:03:31. > :03:35.think you are the party of welfare? This is about unfair change. It

:03:35. > :03:38.think you are the party of welfare? not even work. Ministers question

:03:38. > :03:42.how much the public care about this issue. They say that 70% of people

:03:42. > :03:46.support welfare changes. Labour issue. They say that 70% of people

:03:46. > :03:52.that 50,000 people will be affected by these changes. 31,000 of them are

:03:52. > :03:55.disabled. Mr Miliband accepts that transport and council tax, which

:03:55. > :03:59.affect larger numbers and which transport and council tax, which

:03:59. > :04:06.need addressing. But this, he says, Look East has reported several times

:04:06. > :04:17.on the recent changes to housing benefit, but how has the news gone

:04:17. > :04:25.We have three bedrooms appear, and one has been divided. Peter lives in

:04:25. > :04:26.Milton Keynes with his wife and daughters. The home was originally

:04:26. > :04:31.built with two bedrooms but one daughters. The home was originally

:04:31. > :04:34.since been divided. The recent changes to housing benefit mean

:04:34. > :04:35.since been divided. The recent the rent has increased even though

:04:35. > :04:40.the total amount of floor space the rent has increased even though

:04:40. > :04:45.not. Peter says that the rules do not take any account of individual

:04:45. > :04:50.circumstances. I do not think it has been handled properly. It is another

:04:50. > :04:54.government to get more money out of suffering people. Across town,

:04:54. > :05:01.Eileen agrees. She cares for brother says that it saves the government

:05:02. > :05:06.thousands in care bills. She uses her spare rooms occasionally but

:05:06. > :05:09.feels penalised by a system which charges her for having spare rooms.

:05:09. > :05:15.It is unfair and unjust. And it charges her for having spare rooms.

:05:15. > :05:27.causing families like myself a lot unnecessary worry. Labour—saving the

:05:27. > :05:31.plans to scrap the bedroom tax will help thousands of families. But

:05:31. > :05:39.plans to scrap the bedroom tax will it help the party get elected? Will

:05:39. > :05:49.you know vote for Ed Miliband? If he is going to scrap the bedroom tax, I

:05:49. > :05:51.announcement make you vote for him? Definitely not. Every government

:05:51. > :05:54.that I have voted for have always done U—turns. It is always the

:05:54. > :05:59.purest people getting the brunt done U—turns. It is always the

:06:00. > :06:02.it. It will be sometime before Ed Miliband can try to this policy

:06:02. > :06:07.it. It will be sometime before Ed bed, with the election two years

:06:07. > :06:10.away. Later on the programme, we will be getting the view of the

:06:10. > :06:18.Conservative Party on this and Andrew Lansley. —— the leader of the

:06:18. > :06:22.house. Benefits changes have led to some people heading into debt and

:06:22. > :06:26.even losing their home. But a lack of housing has been a problem for

:06:26. > :06:30.some time. In Milton Keynes, for example, they have seen a dramatic

:06:30. > :06:37.rise in the number of families being breakfast accommodation. Back in

:06:37. > :06:39.May, the council had the worst record for this outside London.

:06:39. > :06:46.May, the council had the worst three months on, the situation is

:06:46. > :06:49.Bringing up a young family can be difficult, especially for those

:06:50. > :06:53.Bringing up a young family can be nowhere to call home. This man asked

:06:53. > :06:56.us not to reveal his identity. He and his partner became homeless

:06:56. > :06:59.three months ago and have been housed in bed and breakfast hotels

:06:59. > :07:05.ever since. They have a baby and a young child. You were in one room

:07:05. > :07:11.and your children want to go asleep. —— go to sleep. We go out of the

:07:11. > :07:17.room, just so they can go to sleep, or we hide in the toilet with the

:07:17. > :07:21.lights on, waiting them to sleep —— waiting for them to sleep. I want to

:07:21. > :07:23.come home from work to see my family happy, playing in the garden, not

:07:23. > :07:32.tied up in one room —— squeezed happy, playing in the garden, not

:07:32. > :07:35.one room. If a family isn't every commendation for more than six

:07:35. > :07:39.weeks, it is illegal. In Milton Keynes, 35 families were in that

:07:39. > :07:43.position in the first three months of the year. That figure almost

:07:43. > :07:45.doubled between April and June, making it one of the worst areas in

:07:45. > :07:51.England outside of London. I am making it one of the worst areas in

:07:51. > :07:56.complacent. We are doing things making it one of the worst areas in

:07:56. > :08:00.characteristics of Milton Keynes that cause the issue. We are a young

:08:00. > :08:09.city and we have only been in place since the 70s. We do not have a

:08:09. > :08:26.The government says it made almost £2 million available to tackle this

:08:26. > :08:36.problem. Not an Keynes applied for a families are still waiting for a

:08:36. > :08:40.Two men have been charged with murdering a 19—year—old man in Luton

:08:40. > :08:46.one week ago. Michael Urquhart was found dead with stab wins. Two men

:08:46. > :08:54.from Luton will appear in court —— stab wounds. Network Rail has

:08:54. > :08:59.customers on one of our biggest Peterborough to London, has the

:08:59. > :09:09.worst punctuality record in the Peterborough to London, has the

:09:09. > :09:15.between here and Scotland. And they have suffered delays. The worst

:09:16. > :09:20.between here and Scotland. And they almost a day on the train. 11 hours

:09:20. > :09:26.before we go back to Peterborough. You know, it was that or spending

:09:26. > :09:33.the next couple of days on the platform. They are one of 4 million

:09:33. > :09:34.using Peterborough station each year. That figure is set to double

:09:34. > :09:39.over the next 25 years. Most of year. That figure is set to double

:09:39. > :09:42.delays are not down to those running the trains on the tracks, at the

:09:42. > :09:51.separate companies looking after the tracks themselves. When things go

:09:51. > :09:55.wrong, trains go nowhere. Network Rail has apologised for being to

:09:55. > :10:02.blame for 70% of the delays on this line in August and September. One in

:10:02. > :10:10.making it the least punctual for country. Today, some passengers

:10:10. > :10:12.making it the least punctual for happy but others not so. Sometimes

:10:12. > :10:20.have been kept off my journey for hours. I'm on the train so regularly

:10:20. > :10:26.Sometimes there have been delays, a lot of people waiting outside,

:10:26. > :10:27.causing havoc. Today, Network Rail say they were redoubling their

:10:27. > :10:32.efforts to improve reliability. say they were redoubling their

:10:32. > :10:35.million will be spent upgrading say they were redoubling their

:10:35. > :10:43.line over the next five years. The weight for some passengers will

:10:43. > :10:50.Football, and MK Dons and Peterboro meet again for the first time in two

:10:50. > :10:54.years this week. Last time around, Posh one and ended up being promoted

:10:54. > :11:00.by the defeat still hurt MK Dons. May 2011 and elation meets despair.

:11:00. > :11:05.For Peterboro, the play—offs meant championship football, only to be

:11:05. > :11:12.relegated last season. MK Dons have been left stewing. Both left brewing

:11:12. > :11:20.what might have been. We went to London and let ourselves down. I

:11:20. > :11:24.stronger outfit. It is younger with more energy. There are similarities,

:11:24. > :11:30.but as a club you would have to more energy. There are similarities,

:11:30. > :11:36.we have been more successful. We championship and stayed in the

:11:36. > :11:39.championship. They are not at that level yet. Obviously, if they got

:11:39. > :11:46.promoted this season, that would be the aim. Both sides have started

:11:46. > :11:52.with intent, particularly Posh, currently second in the table. MK

:11:52. > :11:57.Dons are keen to make an impression —— and impression. Dillow macro

:11:57. > :11:58.Dons are keen to make an impression them to play like a professional

:11:58. > :12:04.team and look the part, to play them to play like a professional

:12:04. > :12:09.honour for the badge. I think the championship will put us in good

:12:09. > :12:17.stead. Tactically, we have got better. We have taken tactics onto

:12:17. > :12:21.the pitch and delivered. Posh have the bragging rights and the bigger

:12:21. > :12:26.playing budget. MK Dons wants to bury the hatchet. At this stage

:12:26. > :12:30.playing budget. MK Dons wants to the season, it is almost as viable

:12:30. > :12:33.as the play—offs. Later, Alex will be here with the weather for the

:12:33. > :12:36.will always be classed as an alcoholic, but says he is off the

:12:36. > :12:52.drink and will rebuild his life. Still to come tonight: A nail—biting

:12:53. > :12:58.finish to the cricket season. Plus, a return to Papworth Hospital by the

:12:58. > :13:05.surgeon who pioneered heart and lung transplant. —— transplants.

:13:05. > :13:08.Now here's one of those sobering thoughts. Since 1939, more than

:13:08. > :13:13.83,000 American service men and women have failed to return home.

:13:13. > :13:19.Some were taken prisoner, some went missing in action, but none of them

:13:19. > :13:23.ever came home. This week the US Air Force in Suffolk has been

:13:23. > :13:29.remembering them. Today, at RAF Mildenhall, members of

:13:29. > :13:30.the 100th Air Refueling Wing have taken part in a special ceremony to

:13:30. > :13:33.mark the end of the week's remembrance. Our defence reporter

:13:34. > :13:42.Alex Dunlop has just sent this. Putting names to the numbers.

:13:42. > :13:48.Joseph... Officially missing in action, or prisoners of war, from

:13:48. > :13:58.every action since World War II. Over 24 hours, volunteers read all

:13:58. > :14:04.80 3000, 345 names. It is living on hold. The hope that they can still

:14:04. > :14:12.be alive and come home. Until they have the final closure, I think it

:14:12. > :14:17.is part of our duty to go out and keep the promise, that is the motto,

:14:17. > :14:20.of keeping, bringing them home. But the vast majority of them will have

:14:20. > :14:24.died? Yes. It is more than likely that the majority of them have

:14:24. > :14:28.passed. Nearby, and missing man formation. The desert boots

:14:28. > :14:34.represent the two most recent conflicts, Iraq and Afghanistan. As

:14:34. > :14:39.America starts to pull out of this latest work, for five years one

:14:39. > :14:44.American soldier is still being held captive by the Taliban. It was the

:14:44. > :14:49.war in Vietnam which spurred a huge interest in the fate of American

:14:49. > :14:56.soldiers imprisoned while missing in action. Some were found alive years

:14:56. > :14:59.after the war ended. 40 years on, so determined by the US military to be

:14:59. > :15:03.repatriated those left on old battlefields that they have a

:15:03. > :15:08.dedicated task force of around 400 personnel who make it their mission

:15:08. > :15:12.to find them. Last year they recovered two bodies from the

:15:12. > :15:16.Cambodian jungle. As the commander reads the last of the 83,000 names,

:15:16. > :15:20.today they also remember those killed by a Navy reservist in

:15:20. > :15:28.Washington three days ago. For us it is very important for us to remember

:15:28. > :15:32.who has gone before us. The flag is at half mast behind you as a

:15:32. > :15:33.reminder that there is still a current threat? Absolutely. There is

:15:34. > :15:38.a worldwide threat, and with recent actions that have happened this week

:15:38. > :15:43.in the United States, our flags are at half—mast. We must with the

:15:43. > :15:49.ready. Every Friday in the ceremony, they lowered the stars and stripes.

:15:49. > :15:52.This one was a little different. Today's salute, dedicated to those

:15:52. > :15:59.missing across seven decades of war. Sport now, and the end of the

:15:59. > :16:08.cricket season is going to the wire for Northants and Essex. The two

:16:08. > :16:09.teams have been locked in a battle for promotion to the top flight.

:16:09. > :16:16.Today was the final day of their penultimate county Championship

:16:16. > :16:17.games with Northants now looking like red hot favourites to go up.

:16:17. > :16:22.Let's cross to the county ground in Northampton now and our Sports

:16:22. > :16:24.Editor, Jonathan Park. Yes, it's been a fairy tale season for

:16:25. > :16:29.Northants this season. They have done very well in all competitions,

:16:29. > :16:33.including the Twenty20. Essex have been there throughout, but

:16:33. > :16:41.Northants, as you say, are red—hot favourites to win promotion. They

:16:41. > :16:46.will find out next week, but after today's play, they are in the

:16:46. > :16:52.driving seat. It had been —— has been a season where Northants shake

:16:52. > :16:59.off the pass. The silverware was already on show today. It has been a

:16:59. > :17:03.magnificent season with a real team effort. Silverware does not come

:17:04. > :17:07.around here very often. The performances have been so great.

:17:07. > :17:14.There was a sense about inevitability in their match today.

:17:14. > :17:19.The main game was always going to end in a drawer, but all that

:17:19. > :17:24.Northants needed was the five bonus points on offer for reaching the 400

:17:24. > :17:29.mark, which was accomplished with ease. We have done well today and

:17:29. > :17:35.got all of our bonus points, which is what we set out to do. It looks

:17:35. > :17:39.like things have settled down at Chelmsford and hopefully gone our

:17:39. > :17:42.way. At Chelmsford, the only team who could pip Northants to

:17:42. > :17:46.promotion, Essex, desperately needed a win to strengthen their hand. But

:17:46. > :17:52.there ain't with Glamorgan was also heading for stalemate. We needed a

:17:52. > :17:59.few more performances and did not get the season but all in all, we

:17:59. > :18:03.have had a decent season. I think it is quite decent for this season. I

:18:03. > :18:06.know it is not Division 1, but it is still a tough cricket world. We have

:18:06. > :18:10.done well in four—day cricket. Probably going to finish third

:18:10. > :18:14.behind Northamptonshire and Lancashire. Final stake in the 2020,

:18:14. > :18:20.and we finished fourth there, so we have been the bridesmaid this year,

:18:20. > :18:25.but we have made progress. At half past four, the captain shook hands

:18:25. > :18:31.in both games, with Northants a giant step towards cricket's top

:18:31. > :18:33.flight. The knee just five points from next week 's game at

:18:33. > :18:40.Worcestershire to guarantee it. —— they need. It's in the bag? No...

:18:40. > :18:47.I'm an eternal pessimist, I am afraid. They are not exactly

:18:47. > :18:53.hostile, and not exactly serious, and enjoyed by everyone. Just like

:18:53. > :18:58.Northants's season. That certainly was a humorous moment today. The

:18:58. > :19:05.next round of Championship matches is next week, but before then here

:19:05. > :19:11.at the ground, the pop band Madness are plain. It could certainly be a

:19:11. > :19:17.House Of Fun for those Northants fans this season. Thank you very

:19:17. > :19:22.much. Two years ago, Professor John

:19:22. > :19:29.Wallwork retired from Papworth Hospital. In 30 years he carried out

:19:29. > :19:36.6,000 operations to help put Papworth on the world stage. But now

:19:36. > :19:40.he's coming back. Next February, the Professor will become the hospital's

:19:40. > :19:45.new chairman and says he has big plans for its future. Hello, guys!

:19:45. > :19:51.Back among the staff he calls his second family, the hospital he calls

:19:51. > :19:56.his second home. Two years ago he retired as a surgeon here. He has

:19:56. > :20:03.returned now as chairman. This is a very special time for the hospital.

:20:03. > :20:08.We have spent a long, long time trying to get this hospital to the

:20:08. > :20:13.right place and we are nearly there and I want to see that through. I

:20:13. > :20:17.wanted to be a jewel in the crown of the health service, not just here

:20:17. > :20:21.but abroad. I want to bring any effort I can to the place. This was

:20:21. > :20:25.his last operation. Over 30 years, he carried out 30 of them, a pioneer

:20:25. > :20:30.in transplant surgery. In 1981 he founded the Papworth Heart And Lung

:20:30. > :20:37.Transplant Programme years later performing the first heart and Lung

:20:37. > :20:41.transpired in Europe, and then the world's first triple transplant.

:20:41. > :20:45.What are you planning for the future? I want to keep Papworth

:20:45. > :20:53.Hospital on top. Surprisingly enough putting an organisation up is easier

:20:53. > :21:00.than keeping it at the top. And in order to do that for the patients

:21:00. > :21:04.and the education and research, we have to provide the best that we

:21:04. > :21:11.can, and we can only do that with our biomedical campus. This is where

:21:11. > :21:14.the biomedical campus will go. Work on the new app worth should start in

:21:14. > :21:19.2015. Heart and lung disease together provide the biggest cause

:21:19. > :21:24.of death in our society. It would be absurd to have this big biomedical

:21:24. > :21:29.campus not that hard and lung disease in it. Papworth Hospital has

:21:29. > :21:32.prolonged the lives of thousands. His job now, better treatment for

:21:32. > :21:38.the patient of tomorrow. A reminder now of tonight's main

:21:39. > :21:45.news: The Labour leader Ed Miliband has told Look East that he will

:21:45. > :21:49.scrap the so—called "bedroom tax" if he becomes the next Prime Minister.

:21:49. > :21:55.Let's hear what the Conservatives have to say about that. Andrew

:21:55. > :22:01.Lansley is the MP for South Cambridgeshire and the Leader of the

:22:01. > :22:01.House of Commons. He's in Cambridge now.

:22:02. > :22:05.Housing Federation, Their Chief Executive Says That The Bedroom Tax

:22:05. > :22:10.Is Disastrous. How do you feel about that? Are in was to reduce the cost

:22:10. > :22:17.of housing benefit, which Labour had taken to £20 billion. And I'm afraid

:22:17. > :22:21.but we have heard today shows that Labour have learned nothing. We had

:22:21. > :22:25.to take measures to deal with their debt crisis. It wasn't fair what

:22:25. > :22:31.happened —— wasn't there to be subsidising under occupied

:22:31. > :22:34.properties while people are waiting for accommodation or are in

:22:34. > :22:39.overcrowded accommodation. We have done it in a fairway. We have put

:22:39. > :22:45.£180 million into a discretionary fund that helps to the costs of

:22:45. > :22:50.those who have proper reasons to have support, but we are taking away

:22:50. > :22:55.housing benefit, we are saving in this case really have £1 billion, by

:22:55. > :23:01.virtue of not subsidising under occupied properties. That is what we

:23:01. > :23:07.have to do and the Labour Party does not seem to have learned anything

:23:07. > :23:12.and they are saying that now they want to go back. They have opposed

:23:12. > :23:14.every well cut we have put forward. I am sorry to interrupt you, but all

:23:14. > :23:19.of these people that are affected that we have heard about, one third

:23:19. > :23:24.of them and are having trouble with their rent. These are people who

:23:24. > :23:32.have not been in that situation before, so it is obviously having a

:23:32. > :23:33.very bad effect. We are very clear about the fact that we need to save

:23:33. > :23:38.money by not subsidising under occupied properties. It is not about

:23:38. > :23:43.imposing a charge or imposing tax. It is about how much housing benefit

:23:43. > :23:45.people should be paid, and they should be paid how much is

:23:45. > :23:51.appropriate to the need for housing. Under the last Government, people

:23:51. > :23:52.who were in private rented accommodation and had under occupied

:23:52. > :23:58.properties, spare ribs, did not get housing benefit. What we have done

:23:58. > :24:02.in that sense is remove what was an anomaly between people who were

:24:02. > :24:06.getting private housing benefit and people who were getting housing

:24:06. > :24:11.benefit in social housing. As I said, £190 million per year, it is

:24:11. > :24:15.not far short of a third of the total saving, is available to local

:24:15. > :24:17.authorities in a discretionary payment scheme in order to meet the

:24:17. > :24:25.cases that are genuinely in most need. I am so sorry to interrupt

:24:25. > :24:27.you, but 34% of people who intend to back the Tories at the next election

:24:27. > :24:33.think it is a bad idea. People across the country now that we were

:24:33. > :24:34.think it is a bad idea. People left

:24:34. > :25:30.circumstances. Time for the weather, and it is

:25:30. > :25:31.going to get a little bit warmer? Yes! High pressure across the

:25:31. > :25:32.British Isles. That might sound like the perfect ingredients for a fine

:25:32. > :25:37.autumn weekend, but as this are crosses, we see it picking up a lot

:25:37. > :25:45.of moisture. But while temperatures rise, it will be cloudy at times.

:25:45. > :25:45.Today, we have had quite a lot of fine autumn sunshine. It has turned

:25:45. > :25:51.a little bit cloudy and places, but predominantly, we will seek leave

:25:51. > :25:58.spells overnight. It is expected to turn a little bit cloudy later on

:25:58. > :25:59.with some fog. For most of us, we should stay in double figures. We

:25:59. > :26:04.are expecting loads of around 11 or 12. Temperatures could just drop

:26:04. > :26:09.down there. If you are up early, it might be a bright start in the east.

:26:09. > :26:15.We have this week weather front heading in from the south—west, and

:26:15. > :26:20.that is going to meet increasing amount of cold to the morning. So,

:26:20. > :26:22.this cloud may, in places, be thick enough to produce some rain or

:26:22. > :26:30.drizzle, but for most of us, it is predominantly dry. If you live in

:26:30. > :26:31.the western half, you have got a better chance of seeing something a

:26:31. > :26:38.little bit more break into the afternoon. Temperatures rarely get

:26:38. > :26:39.those brighter spells, they will be quite comfortable, with a bit of a

:26:39. > :26:44.noticeable breeze and a light to moderate south—westerly. The eastern

:26:44. > :26:48.half looks as though it will stay a little bit more cloudy. Now, looking

:26:48. > :26:53.ahead, the high pressure starts to move to the east, towards Holland,

:26:53. > :27:00.by the start of next week. That will mean a subtle change in wind

:27:00. > :27:01.direction, more of an easterly flow. This will bring in more dry air, so

:27:01. > :27:08.that brings us the better prospect of sunshine at the start of next

:27:08. > :27:16.week. So, we start Sunday a bit cloudy, perhaps with some mist

:27:16. > :27:17.around first thing. But it looks more hopeful through the day on

:27:17. > :27:26.Sunday. We should hopefully start to see the sunshine out and as such, we

:27:26. > :27:27.will see the temperatures climb, so 21 or 22 degrees quite possible. As

:27:27. > :27:28.we start next week with that dry air coming in from the east, we are

:27:28. > :27:33.expecting increasing amount of sunshine for Monday and Tuesday, so

:27:33. > :27:40.22 might be a little, well, not quite so optimistic as it could be,

:27:40. > :27:41.but into the middle of the week this high—pressure stays firmly in place,

:27:41. > :27:46.bringing more spells of fine conditions and mild nights.
