:03:53. > :04:02.We had only 370 students, so it is really like a big

:04:36. > :04:37.The chief fire officer of Essex has been sacked today
:04:38. > :04:42.David Johnson was suspended two years ago, a suspension that
:04:43. > :04:45.has cost the tax payer at least ?600,000.
:04:46. > :04:49.A previous report seemed to show no evidence of misconduct.
:04:50. > :05:05.After two years been suspended his position, David Johnson has today
:05:06. > :05:09.been sacked. It was only last year there was criticism over how much
:05:10. > :05:17.time and money the fire servers were spending investigating its own chief
:05:18. > :05:21.fire officer. The cost of a fully crewed finer point is about
:05:22. > :05:26.?900,000. I'm guessing that is about the range they have spent on this.
:05:27. > :05:30.You could have protected the communities of Essex for the same
:05:31. > :05:31.money that they have pretty much wasted and prevaricating and not
:05:32. > :05:34.carrying out an investigation and carrying out an investigation and
:05:35. > :05:40.what should've been a timely fashion. David Johnson was accused
:05:41. > :05:44.of picking luxury and said a budget accommodation for a conference and
:05:45. > :05:49.failing to get enough notice a big annual leave. In January, the BBC
:05:50. > :05:53.contained a confidential report that appeared to clear him of any
:05:54. > :05:56.wrongdoing. Over the last two years, the Fire authority has been
:05:57. > :05:59.reluctant to comment saying it didn't want to find a confidential
:06:00. > :06:01.report that appeared to clear him of any wrongdoing. Over the last two
:06:02. > :06:04.years, the Fire authority has been reluctant to comment saying it
:06:05. > :06:05.didn't want to find a fair with how long the case has taken and with its
:06:06. > :06:07.outcome. Sam Dalton from BBC Essex
:06:08. > :06:22.has been following this Late this afternoon, she told me
:06:23. > :06:26.after a disciplinary process, we after a disciplinary process, we
:06:27. > :06:30.have received the following statement from the chairman of the
:06:31. > :06:35.fire authority, which I will read to you, but says, with immediate
:06:36. > :06:40.dismissed as chief fire officer for dismissed as chief fire officer for
:06:41. > :06:43.Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. The dispersal follows our
:06:44. > :06:48.robust process and compliance with a lot analyst to statutory officers.
:06:49. > :06:56.Does this mean the going to to pay him off? It is unclear what will
:06:57. > :07:01.happen in terms of their finances. However, my understanding is that he
:07:02. > :07:07.won't receive a payoff with an immediate dismissal. We do know
:07:08. > :07:16.about the finances that it has cost the taxpayer in Essex at least
:07:17. > :07:20.offer's obtained through freedom of offer's obtained through freedom of
:07:21. > :07:25.information. It relates to his salary and the salary of those who
:07:26. > :07:29.effectively acted up around him to fulfil his duties while he has been
:07:30. > :07:37.on suspension. We don't know how much the legal costs of this process
:07:38. > :07:41.has taken. This service and Essex has not disclose that information to
:07:42. > :07:45.others. The fire union that I have spoken to in relation to this
:07:46. > :07:48.believe that because of the legal fees could run into hundreds of
:07:49. > :07:54.thousands if not millions of pounds and addition to the cost of the
:07:55. > :08:03.salaries. Have we had from Mr Johnson? Not directly, however I do
:08:04. > :08:07.have a statement from a spokesman on behalf of them. It is as follows.
:08:08. > :08:11.David has been subject of a biased David has been subject of a biased
:08:12. > :08:16.process for three years. The outcome of which the term of wrong doing. At
:08:17. > :08:24.this stage, David has still not had this stage, David has still not had
:08:25. > :08:29.that typifies their attitude towards that typifies their attitude towards
:08:30. > :08:34.him that the public should know by the CROWD: Before he does. The next
:08:35. > :08:37.depth is legal action. An alleged computer hacker
:08:38. > :08:39.from Suffolk has been given permission to appeal
:08:40. > :08:40.against his extradition Lauri Love, who's 32
:08:41. > :08:44.and has Asperger syndrome, is accused of stealing top-secret
:08:45. > :08:48.data from US agencies. The Home Secretary ruled
:08:49. > :08:50.that he should be extradited. But his lawyers will now challenge
:08:51. > :09:05.that decision at the High Court. There have been many laws along the
:09:06. > :09:08.way for Lauri Love in this battle against extradition. This was one of
:09:09. > :09:16.them last September, their argument failing to impress a district judge.
:09:17. > :09:21.And then weeks later, came this. After Home Secretary Amber Rudd's
:09:22. > :09:25.signature gave approval for things signature gave approval for things
:09:26. > :09:33.to proceed. Winger's legal team wasted no time lodging an appeal.
:09:34. > :09:40.Tonight, at the family home, he, it was at positive moment. They said
:09:41. > :09:44.this case raises issues of great importance, and furthermore they
:09:45. > :09:48.have allowed the human Right act to intervene. It is not just about my
:09:49. > :09:51.future but it is about the general principle that the UK will should be
:09:52. > :09:58.sufficient to prosecute crimes committed in the UK. He is accused
:09:59. > :10:03.of hacking the computers of top-level organisations such as the
:10:04. > :10:08.Federal reserve, the FBI, and Nasa. The incident happened in 2012 and
:10:09. > :10:16.2013. If convicted, the jail term could run to the best part of a
:10:17. > :10:21.century. There are various grounds to appeal, he has been granted
:10:22. > :10:26.permission on all grounds. One of them as has Asperger's. There is
:10:27. > :10:32.worries about how he would be treated in prison with Asperger's.
:10:33. > :10:37.Lauri Love believes if the appeal is back, the Americans could drop their
:10:38. > :10:44.demand for exhibition. There is also the possibility of moving on to the
:10:45. > :10:52.Supreme Court. Without hope, with what do we have? He believes
:10:53. > :10:54.extradition would be wholly wrong, but he would welcome a trial, as
:10:55. > :11:00.long as it is on UK soil. Essex's longest-serving MP
:11:01. > :11:02.Sir Alan Haselhurst has announced he won't be standing in the General
:11:03. > :11:04.Election. Sir Alan has represented
:11:05. > :11:08.Saffron Walden for 40 years. At 79, he is currently
:11:09. > :11:20.the oldest Conservative MP. Still to come tonight: Many
:11:21. > :11:22.people woke up to snow Alex will be here to tell us
:11:23. > :11:27.what the coming days have in store. And the pharmaceuticals giant
:11:28. > :11:29.Astranzenica is investing ?330 million to base
:11:30. > :11:33.its new headquarters in Cambridge. What will this mean
:11:34. > :11:41.for science in the East? It's a week since the Prime Minister
:11:42. > :11:44.Theresa May surprised the country And with the country set to go
:11:45. > :11:49.to the polls on June the 8th, much of the focus has
:11:50. > :11:52.been on Westminster. But before that, we've
:11:53. > :11:54.got the County Council Here's Simon Dedman with the first
:11:55. > :12:18.of a series of reports on what these skill line is complicated. She has
:12:19. > :12:25.entered a capital coalition. Pragmatic car pool, listen. The new
:12:26. > :12:29.rules on carpal buses means you have to love over females from the
:12:30. > :12:35.nearest secondary skill to get a free seat on the bus. We have
:12:36. > :12:42.travelled 500 yards from my house DQ, and my son's friend is entitled
:12:43. > :12:46.to free transport and my son isn't. They could still take the bus, but
:12:47. > :12:53.Mahmood have to pay ?700 per year. Lisa will be sending her youngest
:12:54. > :12:59.son to school and Stanley. That is the nearest school, but lesson 200
:13:00. > :13:11.goal. It is unfair. It is a money goal. It is unfair. It is a money
:13:12. > :13:20.spinner for them. They have raised the council tax, but we are still
:13:21. > :13:25.having to take children to school. So what are the policies? The
:13:26. > :13:30.reality is, we provide free transport to the nearest school. If
:13:31. > :13:36.you choose to go to a different school, that is your choice, but as
:13:37. > :13:42.consequences, and the consequent is, consequences, and the consequent is,
:13:43. > :13:47.you pay. We believe that all school transport ought to be funded by the
:13:48. > :13:50.county council because and rural areas, you love those you love. You
:13:51. > :14:00.can't help but this still happens to be. We would reinstate free school
:14:01. > :14:05.transport, but we want to go farther than that and at the bring in a free
:14:06. > :14:09.bus pass for young people. We want to see the cycling strategy and
:14:10. > :14:16.plumbing to so we have a holistic policy on transport to schools. You
:14:17. > :14:21.get doesn't actually have a policy as far as school transport is
:14:22. > :14:24.concerned. We have policy as far as grammar skills as concern, but my
:14:25. > :14:30.personal take is that no child should be disadvantage in their
:14:31. > :14:34.education by virtue of the fact that they live too far from a skill to be
:14:35. > :14:43.able to get their reasonably on their own. We want to make it much
:14:44. > :14:48.more easy and accessible to get parents to get their children to
:14:49. > :14:52.school safely. That means having the public transport available when it
:14:53. > :14:57.is required, but also making it safe to walk and cycle. Over the past
:14:58. > :15:03.four years, the Conservative administration has said as not what
:15:04. > :15:07.Essex council can do for years but what you can do for yourself, and
:15:08. > :15:11.then return it is offered one of the lowest council tax rates in the east
:15:12. > :15:16.of England. But there have had to make ?500 billion worth of savings.
:15:17. > :15:21.This has led to cut including to school transport subsidies. Voters
:15:22. > :15:24.like Lisa and weighing up the quality of county council services
:15:25. > :15:33.and how much they pay. And just over a week, it is make your mind up
:15:34. > :15:36.time. Tomorrow we moved to suffer, one of the big topics as potholes.
:15:37. > :15:39.For those who might be questioning why they should bother to vote,
:15:40. > :15:42.our reporter Robby West has made a very different kind of film
:15:43. > :15:44.explaining the importance of local elections.
:15:45. > :15:53.From litter in your local park, to how often you bin bags are
:15:54. > :16:05.collected, these are decisions local councils make every day.
:16:06. > :16:07.The local authority has a key role in how much
:16:08. > :16:18.That includes care for the elderly...
:16:19. > :16:22.And if you want to see more of this, take a look at our Facebook page.
:16:23. > :16:25.There is more evidence today of how important this region
:16:26. > :16:28.Astra Zeneca topped out its new headquarters
:16:29. > :16:36.The flagship building will house 2000 staff.

:17:29. > :17:30.It is already working with scientific

:20:08. > :20:16.There are not going to be jobs for people who are already in the
:20:17. > :20:22.So, we have moved people down from our pre-existing
:20:23. > :20:25.site in the north-west of England, we have made people in from London,

:20:43. > :20:44.just in AstraZeneca, but the peripheral jobs that come
:20:45. > :20:49.So, many of the support industries, catering,

:22:30. > :22:31.equine stars with four legs being the centre of intention here, but
:22:32. > :22:37.later on it will be sport stars on later on it will be sport stars on
:22:38. > :22:41.two wheels and a very different type of saddle that will be stealing the
:22:42. > :22:47.headlines. The race starts outside this club. They will expect
:22:48. > :22:53.thousands to line the streets, hopefully in the sunshine. Come
:22:54. > :23:00.September the 8th, at which will go biking mad. An undercurrent of
:23:01. > :23:05.cycling gripping below is a wild's best riders prepared to speak
:23:06. > :23:08.through Suffolk's streets. A description of cycling and tourism
:23:09. > :23:14.in general. Getting people to Suffolk has got to be a good thing.
:23:15. > :23:21.It is Britain's Premier Road race. Last year two years ago, it
:23:22. > :23:25.attracted all the big names. We are expecting something like ?2 million
:23:26. > :23:31.to be spent in the county on that day. That is excellent. It is a
:23:32. > :23:36.fantastic spectator sport. There will be something like 220,000
:23:37. > :23:41.people watching. When you consider Wembley Stadium only holds 90,000,
:23:42. > :23:51.it is an enormous number of people. They state that a new market,
:23:52. > :24:01.heading to parry. 100 and 30 miles out to the coast. It Pacitti towns
:24:02. > :24:08.and villages. It is also about finding this picturesque areas.
:24:09. > :24:12.There aren't any more picturesque areas than there are in Suffolk.
:24:13. > :24:17.What sort of challenges you think the riders will face? I don't think
:24:18. > :24:23.there'll be too many mountain stages, but the flat stages will be
:24:24. > :24:30.quick. 24 hours earlier, Essex host stage five. It is a short estate at
:24:31. > :24:36.just ten miles, starting and ending in Clacton. It will be a fantastic
:24:37. > :24:40.time for people to see the top cyclist up close. Also, leading on
:24:41. > :24:46.from this, we hope to leave a legacy in the area and encourage people to
:24:47. > :24:53.get more active and take up cycling. This region has become one of the
:24:54. > :25:00.two's favourite destinations. Two more starts, two more chances to
:25:01. > :25:06.shine. So a big summer ahead. This cyclist will be under starter's
:25:07. > :25:08.orders and September. Thank you Tom. I think that is what the weather
:25:09. > :25:24.would call a wintry shareware. Although there was some sunshine
:25:25. > :25:28.around today, we can expect a week of sunshine, some wintry showers and
:25:29. > :25:32.some frosty nights particular tomorrow night is going to be the
:25:33. > :25:37.sharpest frost of the cold snap. This was the scene and Cambridge
:25:38. > :25:42.this morning. We are going to see scenes like that again tomorrow.
:25:43. > :25:47.Despite the lovely weather and sunshine, it did feel bitterly cold
:25:48. > :25:50.sent an hear from Suffolk. This is a sent an hear from Suffolk. This is a
:25:51. > :26:00.lovely wintry showers for you in somebody's garden. As's we can see a
:26:01. > :26:03.scattering of showers across the region. They will continue this
:26:04. > :26:07.evening and overnight and it is possible we will have street
:26:08. > :26:11.arsenal. You may wake up to a light dusting tomorrow morning. There
:26:12. > :26:19.might be ice in the early hours of tomorrow morning. This is a
:26:20. > :26:26.prediction of rebels showers made for all, most places are likely to
:26:27. > :26:29.see each other. Temperature wise, we'll be close to freezing if not
:26:30. > :26:37.below. Certainly a cold and frosty start to the day. We have called air
:26:38. > :26:41.moving southwards, there's weather feature clusters. It'll be a similar
:26:42. > :26:44.day in terms of that cold northerly wind and showers moving and from the
:26:45. > :26:48.north sea through the day. Some sunshine and between, but not
:26:49. > :26:53.feeling warm and that sunshine with that north-westerly wind.
:26:54. > :26:58.Temperature is about eight or 9 degrees so still feeling quite cold.
:26:59. > :27:02.In the afternoon, showers continue, but they should buy off and the
:27:03. > :27:10.evening. Clear skies for much of tomorrow night. It could be several
:27:11. > :27:18.degrees below freezing so gardeners beware. A better that chefs coming
:27:19. > :27:23.away, it better the chefs coming away. There will be a bright start
:27:24. > :27:27.to Thursday with some outbreaks of rain. Temperatures are expected to
:27:28. > :27:29.recover from Friday and into the weekend. A little bit of uncertainty
:27:30. > :27:40.into the bank holiday weekend.
