:00:00. > :00:00.That's all from the BBC News at One - so it's goodbye from me -

:00:00. > :00:08.Fears over Brexit, concerns from one leading supporter

:00:09. > :00:12.The rise of sleeping tuberculosis, doctors in Peterborough say they're

:00:13. > :00:17.And there's a warning for ice for tonight and tomorrow morning.

:00:18. > :00:32.I'll tell you more in the forecast coming up.

:00:33. > :00:36.A leading supporter of the Leave campaign in last year's EU

:00:37. > :00:40.referendum has told Look East he's worried Brexit may never happen.

:00:41. > :00:44.Peter Bone, the MP for Wellingborough, says members

:00:45. > :00:49.of the establishment are hoping to indefinitely delay the process

:00:50. > :00:53.and he'll be pushing the Prime Minister to proceed

:00:54. > :00:58.with the plans as quickly as possible.

:00:59. > :01:00.A long-standing Eurosceptic, Peter Bone played a leading

:01:01. > :01:03.His grassroots Out movement, with its focus on door-to-door

:01:04. > :01:06.campaigning, brought together politicians from across

:01:07. > :01:10.But more than six months on, he believes that parts

:01:11. > :01:12.of the civil service, the media and even some

:01:13. > :01:16.of his own colleagues are trying to scupper Brexit.

:01:17. > :01:20.We're up against the establishment, we know there are certain people

:01:21. > :01:23.in Parliament who have made it clear that they don't accept the result

:01:24. > :01:28.The longer before the exit from the EU, there's more chance

:01:29. > :01:31.of some event occurring which would stop it or put it off.

:01:32. > :01:34.You sound as if you're still worried that this may never happen.

:01:35. > :01:41.He says if anyone can force through Brexit,

:01:42. > :01:48.She has said she wants Article 50, which will start the process,

:01:49. > :01:54.But many MPs say they may hold up the process,

:01:55. > :01:56.like the Labour MP for Cambridge, Daniel Zeichner, and

:01:57. > :02:02.We've got to respect and accept the judgment of the British people,

:02:03. > :02:08.and I think there are very many people, increasing numbers

:02:09. > :02:11.of people, who recognise the need for us to negotiate a deal

:02:12. > :02:12.which protects our economic interests.

:02:13. > :02:15.Supporters of the Leave campaign point to comments like that

:02:16. > :02:19.and today's row over the resignation of our ambassador in Brussels

:02:20. > :02:22.as proof of an establishment campaign to stop Brexit.

:02:23. > :02:29.Something that Mr Bone is determined to resist.

:02:30. > :02:32.A man has been arrested after two people died in an apparent hit

:02:33. > :02:39.It happened between Yaxley and Farcet near Peterborough just

:02:40. > :02:43.Officers searching for the driver of a BMW arrested a man

:02:44. > :02:46.in Chelmsford later that night on suspicion of causing death

:02:47. > :02:48.by dangerous driving and actual bodily harm.

:02:49. > :02:54.The two men who died have not yet been named.

:02:55. > :02:59.Within the next couple of hours the government is expected

:03:00. > :03:01.to announce an extension to restrictions on our poultry

:03:02. > :03:06.producers following outbreaks of bird flu.

:03:07. > :03:09.The first confirmed case in the UK was in Lincolnshire

:03:10. > :03:13.Yesterday H5N8 was found in chickens and ducks in Wales.

:03:14. > :03:15.Farmers here say the measures are necessary to stop

:03:16. > :03:28.Our advice has been to extend it for a period of time, we have got farms

:03:29. > :03:33.across the whole of East Anglia, there is a huge amount of migration,

:03:34. > :03:36.coming into this part of the world. And it is a real worry.

:03:37. > :03:39.Doctors in Peterborough say they're seeing a growing number of patients

:03:40. > :03:42.Unlike active tuberculosis, there are no symptoms,

:03:43. > :03:46.But health bosses are keen to ensure the bug doesn't

:03:47. > :03:51.A screening programme rolled out last May has seen the highest number

:03:52. > :03:55.of samples being processed in the UK.

:03:56. > :03:58.It's an airborne infection that affects the lungs.

:03:59. > :04:01.Tuberculosis was a big killer in this country

:04:02. > :04:10.Fast forward to the 21st century, and so-called sleeping tuberculosis

:04:11. > :04:14.As long as we pick it up early, it shouldn't cause

:04:15. > :04:18.In this clinic in Peterborough, patients deemed to be at risk

:04:19. > :04:21.from the latent infection are being invited in for screening.

:04:22. > :04:23.There is a lot of different groups coming to Peterborough,

:04:24. > :04:26.so obviously, as their doctors, we really want to protect them

:04:27. > :04:28.and we also want to protect our other patients as well.

:04:29. > :04:31.So I think finding a disease like latent TB early, treating it,

:04:32. > :04:34.helps protect both the patients but also the rest of

:04:35. > :04:38.The vaccine for TB was phased out a decade ago, but rising levels

:04:39. > :04:41.of migration from high-risk countries has seen health bosses

:04:42. > :04:43.in Cambridgeshire introduce a pilot screening programme.

:04:44. > :04:47.We've got about 12 practices involved across Peterborough,

:04:48. > :04:50.and the pilot has been running since May, and we've had a fantastic

:04:51. > :04:55.They have screened over 250 people, and we've now got 30 people

:04:56. > :04:58.in treatment for the latent form of the disease that

:04:59. > :05:02.otherwise wouldn't have known that they had it.

:05:03. > :05:05.One of 60 programmes in the country, it's sent in the highest

:05:06. > :05:11.Data from the region's clinical commissioning groups show that

:05:12. > :05:15.between 2013 and 2015, there were on average 26 cases of TB

:05:16. > :05:20.detected in Milton Keynes, 42 across Northamptonshire,

:05:21. > :05:24.63 in Luton, and 85 in Cambridgeshire, the highest

:05:25. > :05:29.It's estimated that a third of the world's population

:05:30. > :05:33.is infected with latent TB, but one in ten goes

:05:34. > :05:39.A century ago, TB was a big problem in this country,

:05:40. > :05:43.but improved housing and sanitation has seen a stark drop in figures.

:05:44. > :05:52.Scientists in this Cambridge laboratory have sequenced the TB

:05:53. > :05:55.genome, looking at drug resistant bugs, in order to find drug

:05:56. > :05:58.In the United Kingdom, the rates of tuberculous have

:05:59. > :06:02.declined over the last few years, and I think last year

:06:03. > :06:05.there were about 6000 cases which was down from about 8000

:06:06. > :06:08.But tuberculosis has never disappeared from the UK

:06:09. > :06:10.and is unlikely to do so in the foreseeable future.

:06:11. > :06:13.While latent TB is not contagious, doctors are urging people who've

:06:14. > :06:16.settled in this country in the past five years to be tested in order

:06:17. > :06:26.to help eradicate this once widespread illness.

:06:27. > :06:31.Tonight on Look East we'll be at Africa Alive as it's the time

:06:32. > :06:35.of year zoo keepers count all the animals they look after.

:06:36. > :06:38.The annual count is also being done at Banham Zoo.

:06:39. > :06:40.The information is used to ensure the animals are being looked

:06:41. > :06:43.after properly and provide valuable data to the coordinators of managed

:06:44. > :06:47.We have to make sure everybody is present and correct and then

:06:48. > :06:49.all that information is logged on our record-keeping system,

:06:50. > :06:52.and that information is shared between other collections

:06:53. > :06:59.So our captive populations are all recorded and in check.

:07:00. > :07:01.Let's get a look at the weather now, Georgina Burnett

:07:02. > :07:14.We are looking at the bit of sunshine this afternoon after a grey

:07:15. > :07:20.start of the day, some of us enjoying that already, this was a

:07:21. > :07:26.gloomy picture taken this morning in Southend. A really beautiful scene.

:07:27. > :07:33.The cloud is trying to steal away, there are a few showers left, and

:07:34. > :07:41.even spilling slightly in Essex. Temperatures getting up to five or 6

:07:42. > :07:44.degrees. Still very chilly. Tonight it is turning icy so some of the

:07:45. > :07:55.showers continuing, and with low temperatures there is potential for

:07:56. > :08:00.icy conditions. There is an ice warning until 10am. In some parts of

:08:01. > :08:02.the region. You will need to take care everywhere, because we are

:08:03. > :08:10.seeing temperatures plummet below freezing. Continuing over Norfolk,

:08:11. > :08:13.Suffolk and Essex, elsewhere and marginally dry night, widespread

:08:14. > :08:21.frost, some fog patches and freezing fog. Where the rain is, it is going

:08:22. > :08:27.to be slightly milder. An icy start to the day for many of us, certainly

:08:28. > :08:31.frosty, so if you're going to be travelling, and you want to be

:08:32. > :08:34.leading a little bit earlier, but a beautiful day of sunshine if you are

:08:35. > :08:40.wrapped up warm. Although there is plenty of sunshine around tomorrow,

:08:41. > :08:51.temperatures are at four or 5 degrees. In some spots you could not

:08:52. > :08:58.make it above two. I frosty start on Friday but pockets of frost, bog in

:08:59. > :09:02.places, -- there is some fog in places. The rain band will be coming

:09:03. > :09:07.through later on in the day on Friday, clearing Saturday morning.

:09:08. > :09:14.Leaving us with a largely dry weekend, cloud at times, and some

:09:15. > :09:17.sunny intervals. Some brightness expected over the weekend. And

:09:18. > :09:20.milder temperatures. We'll be back with Look East

:09:21. > :09:24.on BBC One at 6.30pm. Panorama investigates

:09:25. > :09:49.the deadly terrorist attack
