That's all from the BBC News at Six - on BBC One we now join | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
On the trains, billions of pounds for better rail services. On the | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
plains, a doubling of easyJdt passengers from Luton. | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
We will be here later in thd programme. Free school dinndrs for | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
4`7 `year`olds will be dishdd up from September but will the schools | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
be ready? Peterborough Unitdd win their first ever National Trophy. | :00:32. | :00:51. | |
First tonight, billions of pounds for our railways and a doubling in | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
size of easyJet in Luton. Two major announcements today which promise a | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
new era for rail passengers, growth for the region and thousands of new | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
jobs. On the railways, more than ?2 billion is being spent in the next | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
five years overhauling servhces in the East. In Luton, easyJet want to | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
increase their passenger nulbers to nine million a year, creating around | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
2,500 jobs. We'll hear more from Luton in a moment, but first Mike | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
Cartwright reports from King's Cross where work is already under way to | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
link Cambridge and Peterborough to the South Coast. A stretch of new | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
track less than a kilometre long, but a massive improvement, Network | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
Rail say, to travelling by train in and out of our region. A tunnel | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
underneath London connecting east to south. That way is Peterborough and | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
Cambridge, this way Gatwick and Brighton. A nonstop journey, a whole | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
new route, a trains an hour which could carry 10 million passdngers a | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
year. This cost 28 million, announced today 2.2 billion more to | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
improve the network it will connect to. Less crowded carriages, trains | :01:57. | :02:05. | |
arriving and leaving on timd. There are no guarantees and there will be | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
no flash of lightning and stddenly everything will be better, this is | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
about incremental improvements making journeys more reliable and | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
slightly faster, and about lore and more trains. Already in the last | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
five years another 30 million journeys have been made. Better | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
service for commuters is to be welcomed, say rail campaigndrs, but | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
lower train fares is what is needed. We want to focus shifting to value | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
for money for the passenger and not just value for money for thd | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
Treasury. We are very concerned about high `` how high the train | :02:38. | :02:48. | |
fares are. Train fares was what most people wanted to talk about today. | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
They are very expensive. People cannot afford to get to where the | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
jobs are, and definitely tr`in fares should come down. The toilets are in | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
a state. Everyday facilities rather than more trains. Worked here will | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
finish within months but it won t open until rolling stock arrives in | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
four years. The east coast connected to the south coast, nonstop. So | :03:20. | :03:28. | |
along with new links to the south coast, what other improvements will | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
passengers see in the next five years? Debbie Tubby has the details. | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
In future, more tracks like these will be replaced with new ones, | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
while we sleep and without closing lines. As passenger numbers grow | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
faster in the east than anywhere else in Britain, more improvements | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
are needed and they are on the way. I want to see more but it ddpends on | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
government funding and what the economy is doing. You have to invest | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
to make the economy better. To relieve congestion on the wdst | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
Anglia line, this junction will be rebuilt. The cross`country route | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
from Felixstowe via Peterborough to Birmingham will continue to be | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
upgraded, taking freight off the roads and relieving congesthon. 850 | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
miles of railway is to be electrified, including the Lidland | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
mainline from Bedford to Shdffield. As part of the project, a ndw | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
electrified railway will connect Oxford with Bedford and Milton | :04:28. | :04:35. | |
Keynes. Of the ?38 billion spent on Britain's railways, only 2.2 billion | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
will be spent in the east, so is our region being short`changed? East | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
Anglia probably needs a gre`ter proportion of investment in order to | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
bring it up than other parts of the country, and so far I think we are | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
seeing that the north and inevitably the south`east have been | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
prioritised. Network Rail s`ys these improvements will make a re`l | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
difference to people's lives and boost the economy but there is no | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
specific timetable. They all just have to be completed in the next | :05:10. | :05:18. | |
five years. Let's go to Luton now and e`syJet's | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
plans to more double its size. It's part of a 10`year deal it's signed | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
with the airport. The expansion would see passenger numbers go from | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
four million to nine million a year with more frequent flights `nd new | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
business and holiday routes. Emma Baugh reports. | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
The start of a new era ` more planned flights, more planes, more | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
passengers. Business possibly doubling over the next decade. We | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
are going to be growing arotnd 0% next year, so probably adding around | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
three aircraft in 2015, and then we are going to continue to grow, | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
depending on when the plannhng and the terminal expansion takes place, | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
then we will phase our growth up to that but we have an opportunity to | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
double our size here which hs great news for the community and for jobs. | :05:55. | :06:02. | |
EasyJet first started flying from here back in 1995 with just one | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
aircraft. Now it is the largest operator here at Luton with 15 | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
planes. At the moment around 70 000 people a week travel with e`syJet | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
through here. Today they ard going to Amsterdam, Malaga and Nice. There | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
will be new destinations but so far they haven't been decided on. | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
Managers say the expansion would improve the inside of the ahrport | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
and give more runway capacity, but could also create another 2,500 | :06:30. | :06:40. | |
jobs. It's enormously important both for the airport and for the | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
region, more importantly, more broadly than that. It is a full | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
range of jobs both on`site, so people that work directly for the | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
airline for example in cabin crew or whatever it may be, but also | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
off`site in the towns around Luton and places like hotels and | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
restaurants. Everyone gains from this. Not everyone is happy. A | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
campaign group has been fighting expansion for three years, saying it | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
could destroy a way of life. This is an airport right next to a city | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
right next to rural villages so local people don't want mord | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
aircraft noise. Secondly, in the context of the last winter, we don't | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
really want to be moving towards more emissions and more clilate | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
change, and aviation is one of the biggest growing sources of carbon | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
emissions. The airport says it is ready for work to begin. It is | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
waiting on the Government to give the final go`ahead. | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
So we've heard about new jobs for Luton, but how will more flhghts and | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
improved rail services bring growth to the region? Mike Cartwright has | :07:42. | :07:49. | |
travelled up the line from King s Cross and joins us now at St Neots | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
station. Behind me is Peterborough and the north, that way is London | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
and the south. In four years you will be able to jump on a train | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
anywhere on this line and not have to get off until you reach places | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
like Gatwick and Brighton and that is because of the tunnel behng belt. | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
It is good for businesses, four companies it means they can recruit | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
further afield, perhaps workers with specialist skills, they will be able | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
to reach customers and develop more and better links. In theory more | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
companies will be attracted here and that means more jobs. As for Luton, | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
it means more passengers, more businessmen and women coming to this | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
region, it means more peopld and more money here. What are the | :08:38. | :08:45. | |
downsides? We have heard about this ?2.2 billion figure, it sounds like | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
a lot of money but it is not as much as other regions are getting to | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
improve their railways. We have heard from campaigners saying that | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
no matter what happens the ticket fares will stay high. A lot of other | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
people are saying that in this part of the world more people drhve than | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
take the railway, so let's fix the congested roads here instead. Thank | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
you. Onto other news now and the trial | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
has begun of five men accusdd of sexually exploiting vulnerable | :09:16. | :09:17. | |
teenage girls. The offences are alleged to have happened in | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
Peterborough between 2008 and 2 13. One man ` Yasir Ali ` faces six | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
counts of rape. Louise Hubb`ll was in court. Arriving at court this | :09:25. | :09:32. | |
morning, Muhammad as lamb wdaring black with James Daley and two other | :09:33. | :09:43. | |
men, they are accused of a series of sexual offenders. The QC told the | :09:44. | :09:50. | |
jury this was a case of delhberate sexual exploitation of young, | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
vulnerable white girls by a group of older Asian men. She said the | :09:56. | :10:04. | |
principal offender was 28`ydar`old Yasir Ali, known to some of the | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
girls as Mr Night. Girls were targeted on social networking sites, | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
collected from near their homes and it is alleged they were driven, | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
given a lot of alcohol and taken to secluded spots in the city or | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
hotels. The five men face a total of 28 counts, including trafficking for | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
sexual exploitation and rapd. The eight girls they are alleged to have | :10:28. | :10:34. | |
abused were aged between 13 and 16. The court heard the girls wdre | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
driven around in flash cars and thought the men wanted loving | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
relationships. In reality, the court was told they were used for sex and | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
passed around. Some of the `buse is alleged to have happened at this | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
Peterborough hotel. The jurx was warned they would be shown lobile | :10:51. | :10:57. | |
phone footage of degrading `cts The men deny all the charges. | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
The death of a woman at the Yarl's Wood Immigration centre in | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
Bedfordshire has been raised in the House of Commons. Police ard | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
investigating the case. It's not thought to be suspicious but brings | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
up concerns about safety at the centre. Our Home Affairs | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
Correspondent joins us in the studio. Sally, what more do you know | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
about the woman who died and the circumstances? The woman was 40 and | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
thought to have been from J`maica. She has not been named, I understand | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
she lived in the UK for manx years and have been at the centre for just | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
ten days when she collapsed after complaining of feeling unwell. Her | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
death has prompted questions questions in Parliament tod`y. There | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
are unconfirmed reports that the detainee was initially denidd | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
medical assistance. Can he `ssure the House that all of those reports | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
are being fully looked at as part of the police and wider investhgation? | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
He will also be aware that there are reports that Yarl's Wood had turned | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
down offers of help from thd local NHS for other women detaineds who | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
were distressed after witnessing the death. Mr broken Shire said it was | :12:02. | :12:18. | |
wrong to speculate at this stage, and the investigation was going on. | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
The detention centres say they are robust in their procedure tonight | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
and the woman had been reached in just three minutes. Paramedhcs and | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
an air ambulance were called immediately. The timeline of events, | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
everything around this, the health care provision will come under the | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
scrutiny of those investigations which will be very thorough. This is | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
the latest in a number of ddaths in detention and again, questions are | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
raised about the welfare of detainees. I'm told that relatives | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
of the dead woman have this afternoon spent three hours with the | :12:57. | :13:12. | |
manager at Yarl's Wood centre seeking answers from him. | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
Council tax payers are set to pick up a bill for ?30 million bdcause | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
plans for a waste incinerator in Kings Lynn have been scrappdd. A | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
political row is now brewing over who is to blame. Kim Riley reports. | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
It was a scheme aimed at stdmming the flow of waste into landfill and | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
saving money. A projected ?250 million over 25 years compared to | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
the costs of piling rubbish into the ground. But it run into stiff local | :13:34. | :13:42. | |
opposition. A vote organised by west Norfolk Council found 65,000 people | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
in the area opposed to the scheme. Local Conservatives were at odds | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
with colleagues who decided to push ahead with the project. A ptblic | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
inquiry was held and the pl`nning inspector's recommendation was then | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
passed on to the communities secretary, Eric Pickles. Thd | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
economics of the whole projdct have been thrown into chaos by the | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
withdrawal of the Government grant last November. Now councillors have | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
been urged to bite the bulldt and terminate the contract. It could | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
cost Norfolk taxpayers ?30 lillion but further delay could send those | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
costs rocketing. The Cabinet will vote on the recommendations next | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
Monday. The company hoping to build four | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
wind turbines close to a National Trust property in Northamptonshire | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
has withdrawn its plans aftdr a seven`year battle with camp`igners. | :14:36. | :14:37. | |
West Coast Energy lost a landmark decision by the courts last year to | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
build a wind farm near the historic Lyveden New Bield. The comp`ny were | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
appealing the decision but have now dropped their case. The land is | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
owned by the Duke of Gloucester and the plans were heavily opposed by | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
heritage groups and local pdople. The firm's decision to abandon the | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
project means a seven`year battle by campaigners has now come to an end. | :14:56. | :15:04. | |
That is it from me for now, I will hand you over to Stuart and Susie. | :15:05. | :15:14. | |
Still to come tonight: the race against time to provide a free | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
school meal for children in our region. | :15:19. | :15:20. | |
Plus, for Posh fans, it's a day out to remember at Wembley stadhum. | :15:21. | :15:31. | |
The European election campahgn kicked off today with the UK | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
Independence Party launching its manifesto for this region. Polling | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
day is eight weeks away on Lay 2nd. It will be the last big test of | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
public opinion before next xear s general election. So plenty at | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
stake. Here's Andrew Sinclahr. It's never top of people's concerns | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
but whether we like it or not Europe plays a large part in our lhves | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
There is of course the free market which allows us and anyone dlse | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
within the EU to work and travel wherever we like. Hundreds of laws | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
and regulations come from Etrope. Everything from health and safety to | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
how much we pay for mobile phone calls and dozens of infrastructure | :16:05. | :16:06. | |
and regeneration projects are funded by the EU. The cost of all this | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
Well, it depends how you add it all up but most people accept it's | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
around ?50 million a day. And even though we get a lot of that back, | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
it's estimated Europe costs every person in this country ?62 ` year. | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
Now most of us are in the E`stern region, which is a bit smaller than | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
the Look East region. Northamptonshire is part of the East | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
Midlands. Milton Keynes is part of the south east. In the eastdrn | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
region we have seven euro MPs and last time round we chose three | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
Conservatives, two members of UKIP, one Labour and one Lib Dem. And this | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
election is done by proporthonal representation which means smaller | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
parties often do well. And there's one smaller party in partictlar that | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
everyone's watching. UKIP is feeling very confiddnt. It | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
hired a big hall in Norwich to put its candidates on display and said | :17:00. | :17:02. | |
it would be disappointed if it didn't come first and get 30% of the | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
vote. A video argued the case for taking Britain out of Europd and | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
restricting immigration. Thd party knows these things can only be | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
decided by Westminster, not Brussels, but it believes a vote for | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
them can still bring about change. UKIP is getting such a tide of | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
public opinion on its side `bout tidying up the immigration system | :17:24. | :17:25. | |
that either the established parties of Government will have to do | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
something in response or people are going to keep switching to TKIP and | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
keep switching to UKIP. Your message seems to be vote for us and we'll | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
force other parties to change their policies. Well, look, vote for us. | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
If you vote for us in big enough numbers, in a democracy, thdn we | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
will get elected and then wd'll be able to do something directly. The | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
party has been holding meethngs across the region and they have been | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
well attended. Its support `ppears to be coming from people in their | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
late 40s and early 50s, manx former Tory voters. But there are `lso a | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
lot of people who have just had enough of the mainstream parties. | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
They haven't had a pay rise above inflation for some years and they | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
are fed up with the Governmdnt's austerity policies and that is quite | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
clear. They're not too sure that Labour has an alternative so they | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
are looking for a third opthon. UKIP won two seats last time round but | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
one of their MEPs defected to the Conservatives shortly afterwards, | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
leaving Norfolk farmer Stew`rt Agnew to be the party's sole | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
representative for the East. A lot of care has gone into selecting this | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
year's candidates. Patrick O'Flynn is a former political journ`list. | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
Tim Aker used to be with thd Taxpayers Alliance. The othdr | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
parties admit that UKIP is `n effective pressure group but they | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
say it doesn't have the presence of Westminster or the numbers hn Europe | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
to deliver on any of its promises. UKIP's answer ` just wait and see. | :18:50. | :18:59. | |
Let me just leave you with this opinion poll done the other week | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
here in the east asking people who intend to vote in the Europdan | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
elections who they'll vote for. UKIP well ahead. We'll be doing lore on | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
the other parties in this c`mpaign in the days and weeks to cole. | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
Some of the region's schools are saying they will struggle to meet | :19:14. | :19:16. | |
the Government's target of providing a free lunch to all young children. | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
The plan is to give all puphls aged between four and seven a hot meal. | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
It's supposed to start in Sdptember but some schools say they don't have | :19:25. | :19:27. | |
the catering facilities to cope and they can't afford to spend loney on | :19:28. | :19:30. | |
kitchen equipment. This report from Alex Dolan. | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
Lunch is served at this inf`nt School in Norfolk. Today, only 00 | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
pupils will receive a hot ltnch but by September this number will be | :19:40. | :19:45. | |
more than double. It's part of a ?1 billion scheme being introdtced by | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
the Government to ensure all four to seven`year`olds get a free school | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
lunch. The challenges are gdtting everybody through in the tile and | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
space available. We've got `n hour and a quarter and we've got 266 | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
children to feed. So that is a huge problem with us having enough | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
capacity in the kitchen, enough staff, all those things are really, | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
really problematic. In Essex, less than 5% of schools have adepuate | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
facilities. At Saint Peter's Catholic Primary School, thdy don't | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
even have a kitchen. We've got 20 children in the school and out of | :20:18. | :20:20. | |
420 children, all of them bring packed lunches. They have bden | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
bringing packed lunches for several years since the kitchen was shut | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
down. And a lot of time and effort has been put in to making those | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
packed lunches healthy, bal`nced and effective in what they are hntended | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
to do. Jesus fed the 5000. H don't think we'll be doing it. We may need | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
him to come along and give ts a hand. We contacted councils across | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
the region and found a mixed picture. Cambridgeshire is getting | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
1.4 million from the Governlent but any additional funding will have to | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
be met by individual schools. In Hertfordshire, the County Council | :20:57. | :20:58. | |
admits a number of schools will require additional equipment while | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
in Bedfordshire some may have to buy in meals from other schools. The | :21:02. | :21:08. | |
Government has put up from ?150 million up for improvements that can | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
be made for schools. Essex hs getting over ?3 million of that | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
which means it is one of thd very biggest recipients of funding to | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
improve facilities. Back at this infant school, they are apprehensive | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
about the changes and think their money may have been better spent | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
elsewhere, but they plan to make it work. | :21:29. | :21:36. | |
Now it's that old bus thing for football clubs in Cambridgeshire. | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
They don't win anything at Wembley for years then they do it two weeks | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
in a row. A week ago it was Cambridge United in the FA Trophy. | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
Yesterday, Peterborough United. Posh are managed by Darren Ferguson, | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
the son of Sir Alex. They bdat Chesterfield 3`1 in the fin`l of the | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
Johnstone's Paint Trophy. Otr sports editor Jonathan Park was thdre. | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
The Johnstone's Paint Trophx might be unfashionable, but for 34,00 | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
Peterborough and Chesterfield fans it was well worth the journdy. Days | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
like today, form goes out the window. The fact that we ard | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
inconsistent is completely irrelevant today. It's a ond`day... | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
It's a 90`minute season for us. ?? WHITE It's Mother's Day tod`y, isn't | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
it? It is Mother's Day. And what a treat. What better place to be? Look | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
at the weather. It's gorgeots. No matter what level you play `t, your | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
dream as as a young boy, yot want to be at Wembley in any capacity. 4 | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
years after their last trip to Wembley, Posh started as cldar | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
favourites ` League One agahnst League Two. With two former Wolves | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
team`mates in charge it was Ferguson's team who tore out of the | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
blocks in a game that featured four goals, one penalty and a red card. | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
Over to the far side. Shot hnitially saved and then the rebound turned in | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
and Posh take the lead. Into the box. A chance to cross | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
Heads towards the back post and it's over the bar. | :22:48. | :22:50. | |
Horrible miss by Morsy. Posh prepare to take this corner | :22:51. | :22:53. | |
from the right, in towards... The header! 2`0, Posh. | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
He might go all the way. On his left foot. Gets the ball over and | :22:59. | :23:01. | |
Chesterfield pull one back. Morsy made it. | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
A little flare`up there. A red card for Newell. Newell and Morsx | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
clashed. A chance to get into the box. Up | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
against Roberts. Penalty surely It is. Assombalonga scores! | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
Tommy Rowe has it in his hands and he lifts the Football Leagud trophy. | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
No matter what happens in otr careers, no one is going to take | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
this away from us. It's set in stone. It's the FA Cup for the two | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
lower leagues and we took it as serious as anything else. One great | :23:32. | :23:34. | |
thing, we've never lost at Wembley. Back here again at the end of May? | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
Yeah, hopefully, yeah, that would be the big one. I think if we come back | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
in the play`offs we could h`ve 25,000 year for sure. So th`t's very | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
exciting. It's there, you know, so I'd love for most of them to come on | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
Wednesday night but, you know, it's only a fiver. If you have a ticket | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
from here, come. So, unbeat`ble at Wembley, Posh have their first ever | :23:54. | :24:01. | |
national trophy and it feels good. If you've just joined us, the | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
breaking news story tonight is the effective cancellation of the waste | :24:05. | :24:07. | |
incinerator planned for King's Lynn. Andrew Sinclair was at this | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
afternoon's briefing. It has been divisive. Yes, the problem was that | :24:13. | :24:21. | |
the then Conservative run council refused to take notice of a | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
referendum were 92% of Abel said no. `` people. This is our victory for a | :24:29. | :24:39. | |
localism. MPs have repeatedly said that if the council pulls ott of | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
this scheme it will find a way to make up the money. Now they have to | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
deliver on that. If they do not ?8 million of savings will be felt in | :24:49. | :24:56. | |
Norfolk. I am told that Labour strategists are thinking of naming | :24:57. | :25:04. | |
some of those cuts after local MPs. Now, though weather. | :25:05. | :25:12. | |
The highest temperature of the year so far year. Many other inl`nd | :25:13. | :25:22. | |
places not far kind. Very w`rm for the time of year. The only `ccept | :25:23. | :25:37. | |
pack stomach `` exception w`s around the coast. Heavy showers around East | :25:38. | :25:44. | |
although most of those have cleared. Later we will see some showdry rain | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
in the West but are largely dry night for many of us. Some list and | :25:51. | :25:58. | |
fog developing. We could sed as low as four degrees. It should stay | :25:59. | :26:06. | |
frost free. We are between two weather systems tomorrow. Any mist | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
and fog should clear for most of us and it should be mostly dry with | :26:12. | :26:14. | |
some brightness and sunshind coming through. Highest temperaturds | :26:15. | :26:23. | |
inland. They could get highdr than these, up to about 18. But ht will | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
be called at the coast. We could see a little bit of mist and fog | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
drifting onshore. We finishdd the day largely dry give or takd some I | :26:35. | :26:43. | |
slated showers. Wednesday looks largely dry giver take some showers | :26:44. | :26:51. | |
but breezy. A bit of a? For Thursday and Friday. As it stands, Thursday | :26:52. | :27:10. | |
looks to start dry and Frid`y wet. That's it from us. Good night. | :27:11. | :27:13. |
