:00:19. > :00:24.Good evening. A triple murddrer from Stevenage has been awarded lore than
:00:25. > :00:27.?800 after some of his personal items were lost or broken dtring a
:00:28. > :00:30.prison transfer. Kevan Thakrar was convicted of gunning down three
:00:31. > :00:33.people in Bishop's Stortford in 2007. The Prison Officers
:00:34. > :00:37.Association say the award is an insult.
:00:38. > :00:41.He is serving three life sentences. He has a history of violencd in
:00:42. > :00:56.prison. Kevan Thakrar has spent time in several jails. He was tr`nsferred
:00:57. > :00:59.to Milton Keynes. During thhs transfer, a number of his
:01:00. > :01:02.possessions were damaged or lost. He was awarded compensation totalling
:01:03. > :01:06.?815. One of his victims saxs it is an insult. It is quite shocking It
:01:07. > :01:11.is quite hurtful. I haven't received an apology. I haven't received
:01:12. > :01:17.compensation. I have had to move back into with my parents to get
:01:18. > :01:21.support. The fact that my lhfe is in tatters and he is sitting there with
:01:22. > :01:32.a smile on his face, getting this publicity and he has ?800 of
:01:33. > :01:35.taxpayers' money in his bank. Kevan Thakrar was initially offerdd the
:01:36. > :01:41.compensation when he moved to prison in Milton Keynes. He refused and
:01:42. > :01:54.took the case to the Small Claims Court. After winning his case, the
:01:55. > :02:03.Prison Service were ordered to pay him ?814. Kevan Thakrar was jailed
:02:04. > :02:16.for the murder of three people in Bishop's Stortford in 2007. The
:02:17. > :02:37.reaction of most people in the town was one of amazement. It is very
:02:38. > :02:40.wrong, isn't it? He shouldn't be given that compensation. He
:02:41. > :02:43.committed those murders. Much better things money could go on th`n
:02:44. > :02:47.compensating somebody like that No, he shouldn't get the money. No way.
:02:48. > :02:51.Well, I don't think he should get all of it. He should get about 20.
:02:52. > :02:55.Kevan Thakrar is still protdsting his innocence. He claims he is the
:02:56. > :02:58.victim of a miscarriage of justice. For the prison officers who suffered
:02:59. > :03:05.at his hands, the only injustice is this ruling. Demand for emergency
:03:06. > :03:28.food parcels has almost tripled in this region in the last year. The
:03:29. > :03:32.figures come from the Trussdll Trust which now runs 40 food banks across
:03:33. > :03:35.the East. It says it's helpdd more than 90,000 adults and children in
:03:36. > :03:39.the last 12 months. The previous year, the figure was nearer 30, 00.
:03:40. > :03:44.This is the first time Jim has resorted to a food bank. After he
:03:45. > :03:47.became ill, he has struggled to pay for everything after his government
:03:48. > :03:51.benefits stopped. You have to be given a voucher to use a food bank.
:03:52. > :03:54.Jim was sent by his doctor. You struggle paying your household bills
:03:55. > :03:58.and buying food. I would rather have electric and water in the house I
:03:59. > :04:02.spend most of my money on that. It leaves me nothing with which to buy
:04:03. > :04:08.food. Sometimes, I borrow money to get milk and bread. You said you
:04:09. > :04:12.have always worked. Did you expect to be in this position? Nevdr ever.
:04:13. > :04:23.I have been trying to get worse for nearly two years. `` work for nearly
:04:24. > :04:27.two years. It is very hard. Very, very hard. Clients get an elergency
:04:28. > :04:33.supply of donated food to l`st three days. People come here for lany
:04:34. > :04:37.reasons. Redundancy or an unexpected bill. Demand has almost tripled in
:04:38. > :04:40.the region in the last year. The various factors are fuelling demand,
:04:41. > :04:42.but increasingly, the welfare reforms the effect of those, and

:04:56. > :04:58.That is when payments are stopped, if you don't attend intervidws or
:04:59. > :05:02.training. The government saxs there was no evidence of a link bdtween
:05:03. > :05:08.welfare reforms and the use of food banks. Becky Bosman family have
:05:09. > :05:14.spent ?1 a day each on this food to last five days. We love being
:05:15. > :05:21.hospitable. We love inviting people to have food with others or shirty
:05:22. > :05:25.with as. `` we love inviting people to have food with those all share
:05:26. > :05:30.tea with others. When you h`ve so little, you stop doing that. You
:05:31. > :05:39.have got to think about getting through the week. We didn't have
:05:40. > :05:43.that choice. It is a tempor`ry hardship for this family for a good
:05:44. > :05:46.cause. But donated food support thousands of people in need in our
:05:47. > :05:49.region. Cambridge Airport h`s won a big new contract to fly daily
:05:50. > :05:53.services to Dublin and Amstdrdam. It's part of a plan to build on its
:05:54. > :05:56.international status. But only last month, flights to other European
:05:57. > :06:00.cities were halted because of a lack of demand. That will not be an
:06:01. > :06:02.issue, says the new airline. It is a different schedule,
:06:03. > :06:16.different type of aircraft. Passengers can fly to many different
:06:17. > :06:20.destinations. Meanwhile, road connections in the
:06:21. > :06:23.East were given a boost this morning with the A11 Elvedon bypass in
:06:24. > :06:27.Suffolk finally opened. It's only one way in each direction, `nd there
:06:28. > :06:30.is a speed limit of 40 miles an hour. It's a major milestond in the
:06:31. > :06:34.A11 dualling project. Before we go there's just thme to
:06:35. > :06:36.tell you that Late Kick Off is on at 11.30 tonight, here on BBC One, with
:06:37. > :06:51.James Burridge. It will not be particularly cold.
:06:52. > :06:57.Lows of around eight Celsius. We have got hardly any wind at all
:06:58. > :07:01.These light winds mean mist and fog tomorrow may take a while to clear.
:07:02. > :07:08.Once it has gone, we are looking at a largely dry day with hopefully
:07:09. > :07:14.some sunshine coming through. Temperatures up to around 14

:07:18. > :07:26.and into the evening. A few isolated showers. I will leave you whth the
:07:27. > :07:32.Outlook. Wednesday looks sililar. If we catch a shower, it could be on
:07:33. > :07:33.the heavy side. On Thursday, showers will be heavier and
:07:34. > :07:39.Thursday and then it will turn much cooler as we go into the bank
:07:40. > :07:45.holiday weekend. Hello, I am going to throw some
:07:46. > :07:49.numbers at you first of all. 22 Celsius was the temperature recorded
:07:50. > :07:54.at Aviemore making it the warmest day of the year so far. At the other
:07:55. > :07:59.end of the country, this cloud has produced a lot of heavy and thundery
:08:00. > :08:05.downpours. A lot of rain falling in one hour at Hurn airport. There are
:08:06. > :08:18.some showers around the Bristol Channel. There will be so increasing

:08:35. > :08:38.and the North. You might get the odd shower in western Northern Ireland
:08:39. > :08:39.in the afternoon but with more sunshine across the country
