First tonight the multi million pound investment in polar rdsearch . | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
Today the Chancellor was in Cambridge to announce 200 | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
million pounds for a new re`search vessel, to be | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
managed by the British Antartic Survey, based here in Cambrhdge | :01:00. | :01:05. | |
The investment has been welcomed by scientists who say the monex is a | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
A polar flagship, the most `dvanced on the planet. A floating l`b for 60 | :01:09. | :01:25. | |
scientists. Many of those from here, the British Antarctic survex in | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
Cambridge. To understand how the regions are changing, what ht means | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
for the club as a whole, we need to go there and get data. This new | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
investment, this ship that will be built for the survey, it will be a | :01:41. | :01:49. | |
major advantage. The ?200 mhllion to pay for it is provided by the | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
government. George Osborne came to Cambridge to announce ?7 billion for | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
British science. First, we're backing Britain's scientific | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
clusters, like Cambridge, bdcause you are showing how much Brhtain can | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
achieve when we turn scienthfic ingenuity to commercial success You | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
have built a cluster of innovation that has been phenomenally | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
productive. Your work has rdsulted in some of our most important | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
scientific and commercial stccesses. The venue, the world`famous | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
laboratory of molecular biology In the 50s, the scientists discovered | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
the structure of DNA. Since then, campus discoveries in its l`bs. More | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
money, vital for uncovering more. The first thing we have to do is | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
make sure that the facilitids in this country are the best in the | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
world, that we attract the best people. Scientists are attr`cted by | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
the quality of the equipment they can get their hands on. The | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
Chancellor said today that lore British science should be converted | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
into British business. The science and technology cluster in this city | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
employs around 57,000 peopld, and generates around ?30 billion a year. | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
Some people say that the government should be spending more on science. | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
Under Labour, the spending on science doubled but under the | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
Conservatives, by the end of this Parliament it will have fallen by | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
15%. Labour had a 10`year ftnding plan for science, but what has | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
happened with this government is that funding has been initi`lly | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
slashed and now the Chancellor has turned up with some cash just before | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
an election. That is no way to do it. Science and research from this | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
region already reaches the far corners of the Globe and now a | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
promise to keep British scidnce on the cutting edge. | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
After a long battle a coupld from Northamptonshire are about to be | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
extradited to prison in America Paul and Sandra Dunham are `ccused | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
of fraud while running a manufacturing company in Maryland. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
They moved to the US in 2000, but in 2009 Paul Dunham resigned from the | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
firm and moved back to Brit`in. But the following year a civil judgement | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
was placed against the couple, leading to criminal proceedhngs in | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
2012. Now after several failed appeals, this week the European | :04:07. | :04:15. | |
Court of Human Rights has ddcided not to intervene in their c`se. | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
Louise Hubball has just sent this report from Northampton. | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
The couple only found out that the final bid to avoid extradithon had | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
failed this evening. Sandra is too upset to talk to us but Paul is with | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
me. What was your reaction when you heard the news? Complete shock. | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
Frustration, anger, discussdd at the British government allowing this to | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
happen. You have always denhed the charges against you and you have | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
always said you would be happy to go back to America to face tri`l but | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
what horrifies you is the f`ct that you will be in prison, separated | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
from your wife. This is the part that we are concerned about. We | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
being sent back and held in prison before trial? The prison we will be | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
sent back and placed in is ` prison designed for murderers, raphsts and | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
drug dealers. That is their majority of the people. We will not have our | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
own cells so we will be expdcted to share a cell with up to six other | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
people. The thought of the separation from my wife, and heard | :05:23. | :05:30. | |
in particular having to spend her time with people who have bden | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
convicted of those crimes, ht is just horrifying for me. Could the | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
government have done more to help? Certainly. They have made special | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
arrangements in the past for high`profile characters. But I am in | :05:42. | :05:50. | |
just Mr average and it is e`sier for the government is to slip this under | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
the radar. `` I am just. We hope that people will speak out `nd | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
insist that they take action. And you now know that you will be | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
extradited but do you know when you might we know was the exhibhtion | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
will take place at some point during the next 28 days. Thank you for | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
talking to me. A father from Luton has been | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
charged with killing his nine`week`old daughter. 32`xear`old | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
Adam Stokes, from the Runfold area has been charged with the | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
manslaughter of Scarlett Stokes`Craig, who died of hdad | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
injuries in January last ye`r. Scarlett was admitted to thd Luton | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
and Dunstable Hospital but was transferred to Great Ormond Street | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
in London, where she died. He'll appear before Luton magistr`tes next | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
month. Currently in Britain around two | :06:40. | :06:48. | |
million people have cancer and every month the Lister hospital | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
in Stevenage treats more th`n thirteen hundred patients, often in | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
cramped and overcrowded conditions. But soon a new multi million pound | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
centre will open, which has been partly funded | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
by the Macmillan Cancer charity Emma Baugh has been given an | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
exclusive tour of the new cdntre. It's here that up to 500 people a | :07:04. | :07:16. | |
month, for their chemotherapy. Nurses have to prepare and | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
administer the treatments in the same space. And is not enough room | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
for everyone to have family here to support them. This is the m`in | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
treatment room that they have now. There are ten units where pdople can | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
have chemotherapy but it is all in one room. As you can see, it is | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
quite cramped. Tracey comes here every three weeks to be tre`ted for | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
breast cancer. But the unit is small. And it struggles to cope with | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
the ever`increasing numbers using it. Tracey will be glad to see the | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
back of the cramped conditions. When you sit down, a few minutes later | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
you are asked to move and then someone else sits in the se`t and | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
they do not realise. It is puite frustrating. It can be quitd | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
upsetting because you are w`iting to have treatment. It is quite | :08:08. | :08:15. | |
stressful, worrying about that. Also struggling to cope, MacMill`n | :08:16. | :08:17. | |
workers in the on`site support centre. The new unit will mdan that | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
they can recruit more volunteers with more space to do their vital | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
work. At the moment, we livd in such a constrained environment that we | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
have one people in `` if we have one person in, we are busy. In the new | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
centre, we will have more pdople and volunteers. The volunteers `re a big | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
issue because they do all the filtering that we can then take on | :08:41. | :08:50. | |
to support people psychologhcally. The new centre will mean th`t they | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
will more than double the alount of room and treat almost twice as many | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
patients. Having all of the space and all of the modern facilhties | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
will make a huge difference, as well as all of the additional crdature | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
comforts, having a garden, having patient Wi`Fi, having lots of quiet | :09:09. | :09:15. | |
rooms where you can go to sht and have time on your own. The number of | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
people diagnosed with cancer is set to double by 2030. This centre will | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
start taking patients in thd next six weeks. | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
Part of the new A11 Elveden bypass in Suffolk should open on Monday | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
Only one lane will be open in each direction and there will be | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
The new road should be fullx open between Thetford and Mildenhall | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
The Spanish owners of London Luton airport say they expect to get | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
the go`ahead for multi`million pound exp`nsion | :09:50. | :09:50. | |
Currently just under ten million passengers use the airport, | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
but the new plans would increase that number to 18 million. | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
The scheme involves a larger terminal | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
If the government gives the go ahead. | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
The Spanish company behind the plans says work could | :10:10. | :10:11. | |
The applications came from 120 people in Waveney and 27 in Suffolk | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
Coastal. It Still, wonderful story behind this | :10:19. | :10:41. | |
fleet. 100 years after it w`s created in the most unlikelx of | :10:42. | :10:55. | |
places. UKIP launched their campaign before Easter week, the othdr | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
parties had been queueing up to criticise them. Of course, the | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
European elections are on the 2 nd of May and most of this reghon is in | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
the eastern constituency whhch has seven seats up for grabs. L`st time | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
UKIP 12 but then one of thehr MEPs defected to the Tories. We will hear | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
from the other one in a momdnt but first, this from our political | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
editor. It has been a week of campaign launches for the Etropean | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
elections and there is one party that is on everyone's lips. UKIP. | :11:29. | :11:37. | |
A vote for UKIP is a vote for the status quo. It is a vote for a | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
grumpy reaction to the EU whthout actually being serious about it | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
There will be very few people debating putting green or UKIP. UKIP | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
is a problem for the right wing UKIP has been holding meetings | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
across the region and is confident on improving on last time. Hn 2 04, | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
they got 20%. In 2009, the vote share was virtually unchangdd. | :12:04. | :12:23. | |
Labour is suffered them... Or UKIP want is headlines. They do know | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
constituency work. Most of them in the European Parliament are not | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
affecting the decisions that are taken. Lib Dem politicians `re after | :12:32. | :12:39. | |
the 30% of voters who want to stay in the EU. For too long, thd | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
isolationists have got away with peddling myths and fears and | :12:46. | :13:00. | |
falsehoods. Although UKIP one two seats last time around, one of their | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
MEPs defected. This year's candidates hope to remedy that. | :13:08. | :13:23. | |
Richard Howitt says they do no work in the constituency or the | :13:24. | :13:30. | |
Parliament? Is talking nonsdnse My voting record is 91% and his is less | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
than 80%. I am on three comlittees, and some of them overlap will stop I | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
always give our T2 agriculttre. I am in added tender. Only 22 of the MEPs | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
turn up regularly and only dight of them know anything about farming. As | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
far as the constituency goes, and if my business to visit a small | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
business that writes to me `bout problems with EU legislation. I ll | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
go and see them on an industrial estate and really try to find out | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
what is going on and, if I can, make a speech. Some claim that if we pull | :14:05. | :14:24. | |
out of Europe, it will be a barrier to trade. That is nonsense. Those | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
people said that they would go under if we did not join the euro. But we | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
did not and we did not. We `re progressing very well. You do not | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
have to be on political union with anybody to trade with them. If we | :14:40. | :14:42. | |
left of the European Union... If those companies decided that they | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
could not do business with Durope from here, it would be a lot of | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
jobs. I'd heartily disagree with what they say. We would havd a more | :14:53. | :15:05. | |
flexible labour market here will stop ``. We would not have the | :15:06. | :15:14. | |
problems. There is no reason why these countries should not thrive in | :15:15. | :15:16. | |
Britain outside of the European Union. No reason at all. In the | :15:17. | :15:28. | |
past, we have not had the bdst candidate. What do you say to people | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
who say that your party is perhaps not ready? It is a difficult balance | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
to strike, because people... We were keen to get candidates for the | :15:43. | :15:44. | |
council elections and our mdmbership swelled so we did not know who was | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
joining us but we wanted people to stand stop you rightly say that yes, | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
one or two turned out to be unsatisfactory. The result will have | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
done is made other more competent individuals feel that they want to | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
be a counsellor and they fedl that they have a good chance it stand for | :16:01. | :16:06. | |
UKIP. That is the way the world goes round. I accept that there were some | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
disappointments but we have had some pleasant surprises. We have to leave | :16:11. | :16:18. | |
it there, Mr Agnew. In sports, and on for a number of | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
our football teams battling for promotion or to avoid releg`tion. | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
And in rugby, Northampton S`ints could get into their second final of | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
the season if they can beat harlequins tonight. James Btrridge | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
has just sent this. There are notable landmarks in a | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
sporting season, particularly at this time of year. Northampton | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
Saints could be one of them. But it is a massive sporting weekend. We | :16:49. | :16:57. | |
have the World Championships at the Crucible, but if you are a football | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
fan, his next two weekends `re key. Particularly if you are one of the | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
two teams facing a relegation battle. We have been catching up | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
with this big fan, finding out what it takes to win big. | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
Barry not only knows how to read the table, he knows every trick shot in | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
the book. He has been in thd game for 20 years. But for the C`naries | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
to escape relegation, something special will have two happen in the | :17:26. | :17:34. | |
next three games. They are sixth or seventh in the league, so I think | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
that gives them a really good chance to pick up some points. Thex should | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
be very encouraged by their performance. For Norwich, the Reds | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
stand in their path. But Unhted have not been subclinical this sdason and | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
now headed Moyes has lost hhs job. The Canaries hope they can break | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
their unbeaten run at Old Trafford. We're playing a good team whth good | :17:58. | :18:00. | |
players who have probably not done as well as they would have liked to | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
have done. But again, we have to focus on what we are doing. If we go | :18:07. | :18:16. | |
there with a game plan, I fdel that we can cause a problem. As for the | :18:17. | :18:18. | |
championship, Ipswich Town `t the chance of a play`off. If we play as | :18:19. | :18:36. | |
well as we have done in the last two games, we could go to Burnldy and | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
win. If we drop our standards, no matter what they have been doing, we | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
will have a tough afternoon. A win for Peterborough would secure a | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
play`off spot in league one. MK Dons take the trip to Rotherham. But at | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
the foot, Colchester have work to do at Brentford. Win, and they could | :18:57. | :18:58. | |
save themselves from relegation dreaded drop. There are still highs | :18:59. | :19:25. | |
and lows to play for. A win at Fleetwood would secure their spot. | :19:26. | :19:42. | |
Perfect conditions tonight. One of the coaches has popped out. The form | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
has been pretty patchy. How is formed. I'm considering on the | :19:49. | :19:58. | |
positives. In terms of lookhng forward, that is what we want to do. | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
We want to build momentum. Coaches talk about detail, but it sdems like | :20:06. | :20:16. | |
a foreign sign. We look at the videos. We are encouraging the | :20:17. | :20:23. | |
players to do that. When pl`yers get onto the training pitch, | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
players to do that. When pl`yers get them to take it into the gale. How | :20:30. | :20:31. | |
difficult is it to compete on so many fronts? I think as a coaching | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
staff, every game we play wd want to win. Everything. Every game. We want | :20:37. | :20:51. | |
to win. Good luck tonight. We're going to finish by congratulating | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
Greg Rutherford, the long jtmper from Milton Keynes. Not onlx is he | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
the Olympic Champion, he's now the British record holder, jumphng .51 | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
metres in San Diego last night. Perfect preparation for the | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
Commonwealth Games later thhs year. Finally tonight, how a thing of | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
beauty was crafted amid the carnage of the First World War. It's a | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
flute, thought to have been made by a soldier in the trenches using | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
materials he found around hhm. The flute belongs to Andrew Fairley who | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
lives in Felixstowe. He bought it from an antiques shop in 1963. On | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
Sunday it will be centre st`ge at a special concert in Woodbridge. | :21:26. | :21:34. | |
So I'm intrigued to find out, what's in the box? Well it's quite a unique | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
musical instrument... Andrew Fairley is a gifted musician but evdn he | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
struggled to master this agd`old relic. If you look carefullx you can | :21:43. | :21:50. | |
