:09:49. > :09:57.about that? I think it is important that information is disseminated
:09:57. > :10:00.practice. But I still feel it should be up to the individual country
:10:00. > :10:01.practice. But I still feel it should decide whether that doctors should

:15:59. > :16:02.of the right—wing English Defence League is standing down. Tommy
:16:02. > :16:07.Robinson, who comes from Luton, says the party has become too extreme in
:16:07. > :16:10.its views about immigration. Mr Robinson told Look East today that
:16:10. > :16:15.he will now establish a new group to defend English culture against high
:16:15. > :16:19.levels of immigration. But Muslim figures in Luton said they distrust
:16:19. > :16:29.his motives. Tonight's special report is from our home affairs
:16:29. > :16:35.correspondent, Sally Chidzoy. I don't care what you say to me! The
:16:35. > :16:40.face of the English Defence League, Tommy Robinson. A man whose rhetoric
:16:40. > :16:43.attacking Muslim extremism attracted thousands of followers, first in
:16:43. > :16:46.Luton and then across the country. The movement began in Luton four
:16:47. > :16:51.years ago in response to Muslim protesters who shouted slogans as
:16:51. > :16:57.the Royal Anglian Regiment much do the time. After dramatically
:16:57. > :17:02.quitting as the leader, Tommy Robinson said he was sick of the far
:17:02. > :17:05.right extremism within its ranks. When I am saying something, it is
:17:05. > :17:14.me. It is not someone with the three letters of my organisation doing
:17:14. > :17:18.something. Toby Robinson's defection has raised eyebrows. The group
:17:18. > :17:24.focuses on counter extremism and argues that Islamist causes Muslim
:17:24. > :17:29.terrorism. There is something fishy about the whole thing. He still has
:17:30. > :17:32.extremist, intolerant views. I was listening this morning on the radio
:17:32. > :17:40.and he said he still wants the burger van. He still does not want
:17:40. > :17:42.mosques. —— veil ban. He still has a scaremongering attitude to sharia
:17:42. > :17:48.law. He has not changed in the slightest. For years, Tommy Robinson
:17:48. > :17:54.has hit back at critics who accuse him of being a racist. For many, his
:17:54. > :17:57.departure has been welcomed. If he has seen the light and walked away
:17:57. > :18:02.from it, it is a good example to others. He was having problems
:18:02. > :18:09.before with a lot of people but now, people might find him not resist any
:18:09. > :18:14.more. I don't really support him. I think we should all live together
:18:14. > :18:19.and be happy together. Are you anything without the EGL? I think
:18:19. > :18:25.people are supporting what I'm saying and doing. Do you plan to set
:18:25. > :18:30.up another group? Not a street protest group. A group that focuses
:18:30. > :18:34.its frustrations and brings about dialogue through the political
:18:35. > :18:38.process. Tommy Robinson believes that without his support the English
:18:38. > :18:42.Defence League will die out by Christmas. Local Muslim leaders fear

:20:41. > :20:46.remind guys to understand that. We do not rise to the occasion, we fall
:20:46. > :20:52.to the level of training. That way, they take this as seriously as

:20:55. > :21:01.including in Iraq and Afghanistan. His job is operating a refuelling

:21:33. > :21:45.but also very serious. The lessons learned here could one day be the
:21:45. > :21:48.key to making it out alive. Suzie has just been telling me how to

:21:54. > :21:57.given a crash course today in driving. And that's exactly what
:21:57. > :22:01.they got — a driving course with a crash ending. The idea is to cut the
:22:01. > :22:05.number of injuries to young drivers and their passengers. Last year,
:22:05. > :22:08.almost a quarter of people injured on the city's roads were aged
:22:08. > :22:11.between 17 and 25. Please be aware that this report from Mike Liggins

:23:48. > :23:54.involves a wide of local authorities. Often with young
:23:54. > :23:59.drivers with cars full of 17 or 25—year—old, they are taxing, not
:23:59. > :24:04.wearing seat belts, driving too fast. So when we do go to traffic
:24:04. > :24:10.collisions involving young people, it is quite disturbing for us. This
:24:10. > :24:13.age group is really, really hard to engage with. We run programmes
:24:13. > :24:20.throughout the schools, but to have this today and have people come and
:24:20. > :24:22.talk to us, it is a first. The car crash simulator will note
:24:22. > :24:29.Cambridgeshire and other counties in the region. Entered a's world of
:24:29. > :24:36.graphic video games, it is hard to shock teenagers. But the simulator
:24:36. > :24:41.does shock. What a good idea! It is, and the
:24:41. > :24:45.looks on their faces, to be enjoying the ride in the car and then
:24:45. > :24:51.suddenly, totally shocked. Let's get the weather.
:24:51. > :24:56.It is turning much colder and when they the next few days. Keeping a
:24:56. > :25:01.close eye on some cold front coming in. The blue indicates that here.
:25:01. > :25:05.These two cold fronts have a few showers with them as well. Across
:25:05. > :25:09.the country through the day, we have had a little bit of rain in places.
:25:10. > :25:12.They are continuing to exit down towards the south. They will
:25:12. > :25:15.continue to do that in the next couple of hours and in most places
:25:15. > :25:20.will become dry with clear skies tonight. Towards midnight and do
:25:20. > :25:24.tomorrow morning, there will be heavy showers in Norfolk, especially
:25:24. > :25:27.near the coast. They could even be the odd rumble of thunder as well.
:25:27. > :25:29.But further west, it will be heavy showers in Norfolk, especially near
:25:29. > :25:35.the coast. They could even be the odd rumble of thunder as well. But
:25:35. > :25:42.further west, it'll stay mainly dry the wind will keep most areas frost
:25:42. > :25:49.free. The winds, by the end of the neck, costing close to 50 miles an
:25:49. > :25:52.hour. We have got high—pressure anchored to the West of Scotland and
:25:53. > :26:01.these tightly packed I suppose indicate a very strong northerly
:26:01. > :26:06.wind coming down. We could see just inland of 35 or 40 mph, and along
:26:06. > :26:12.the northern coast, 16 mph possible. Couple that with high tide and large
:26:12. > :26:15.waves, and could be some flooding. Tomorrow is all about showers.
:26:16. > :26:20.Again, some of these are heavy with some field. Further west, a bright
:26:20. > :26:24.start. But even here, there will be a few showers developing into the
:26:24. > :26:28.afternoon. The general rule is that the further west you go, the lighter
:26:28. > :26:34.the showers will be and the few and far between it will be as well.
:26:34. > :26:37.Temperatures could make it up to 12 degrees, several degrees lower than
:26:37. > :26:40.it has been in recent days. It will feel even colder than that thanks to
:26:40. > :26:44.that very strong wind, making it feel more like six or seven degrees
:26:44. > :26:47.if you are exposed to the wind. The showers continue through the
:26:47. > :26:51.afternoon and into the evening. They could be a long spell of rain across
:26:51. > :26:54.eastern areas and we had to the second—half of the evening. That
:26:54. > :26:58.rain will gradually expand further westwards as we go through Thursday
:26:58. > :27:02.night, so potentially quick bit of rain in some places. It is all
:27:02. > :27:06.courtesy of this weather front that actually will not move very far over
:27:06. > :27:11.the next few days. Expect further outbreaks of rain across parts of
:27:11. > :27:14.the region, even into the weekend. Some uncertainty about exactly how
:27:14. > :27:18.much rain there is, but I would not be surprised if some places did not
:27:18. > :27:23.get 25 millimetres or more by Sunday. But indicators are it will
:27:24. > :27:27.clear away by the weekend. Your outlook is some heavy showers to the
:27:27. > :27:33.course of tomorrow, more green into the weekend, dry by Sunday. Notice
:27:33. > :27:34.the winds easing down? Chilly night continuing into the weekend. There
:27:34. > :27:40.is a weather. is a
:27:40. > :27:42.Thank you very much. What a cheery little forecast. See you tomorrow
:27:42. > :27:46.night. Have a peaceful evening.
