:01:02. > :01:04.the Brexit vote which led to his departure
:01:05. > :01:09.The Tatton MP says he misre`d the public mood because he didn t
:01:10. > :01:11.fully understand how alienated people feel from

:01:35. > :01:37.He's had to get to get used to life as a constituency MP
:01:38. > :01:46.You know, it gives you time to think about life,
:01:47. > :01:49.think about what you're going to do for the community you represent
:01:50. > :01:52.think about mistakes I've m`de and how we can put them right.
:01:53. > :01:55.You can't talk about mistakds you've made without me asking '"wh`t do
:01:56. > :02:04.I don't think I properly understood the sense that people had
:02:05. > :02:06.in many communities, particularly in the North of
:02:07. > :02:08.England, that they were completely disconnected from the systel,
:02:09. > :02:11.from the way our country was governed.
:02:12. > :02:15.Sometimes the statistics can mask economic insecurity out there that
:02:16. > :02:20.Mr Osborne has not withdrawn his predictions that Brexit would cause
:02:21. > :02:26.But as he tries to explain his past mistakes, his future
:02:27. > :02:31.The Tatton constituency he's represented since 2001
:02:32. > :02:34.is disappearing if boundary changes are approved.

:03:22. > :03:25.Preston Crown Court was told that the youngest victim
:03:26. > :03:27.was seven years old, and the other was nine.
:03:28. > :03:30.The judge said he may have been affected by watching violent

:04:07. > :04:09.The Police Federation has asked the MP to produce evidence to back

:04:35. > :04:38.When Andy Davies was told he had multiple sclerosis,
:04:39. > :04:51.He was then sacked from his job He fought for three years to whn an
:04:52. > :04:55.unfair dismissal case and hd is now campaigning to raise awarendss about
:04:56. > :05:02.workplace discrimination. Btt his case is not a one off. A new survey
:05:03. > :05:04.by MS Society reveals that people with the condition are experiencing
:05:05. > :05:08.disturbing levels of workpl`ce discrimination.
:05:09. > :05:10.Our Chief Reporter, Dave Gudst, has been to Liverpool to medt one
:05:11. > :05:15.When IT consultant Andy Davhes was first diagnosed with multiple
:05:16. > :05:17.sclerosis, his employers cotldn t have been more supportive.
:05:18. > :05:25.Things started to change when I tried to return back to work.
:05:26. > :05:28.They said they would need to offer me a new contract.
:05:29. > :05:30.It was a vastly reduced sal`ry and no sick pay.
:05:31. > :05:33.I had a lot of benefits before and I couldn't understand why
:05:34. > :05:45.They said that I needed to attend a medical.
:05:46. > :05:47.The doctor's report concluddd he wasn't fit to work.
:05:48. > :05:50.That was followed by a letter from his employers
:05:51. > :05:53.Let's be clear, obviously your medical condition meant you had
:05:54. > :05:57.You couldn't carry on exactly as you did before but you wdre still
:05:58. > :06:00.convinced you could do the job you were employed to do?
:06:01. > :06:05.I wrote to my employer way before this to say this is what I believe
:06:06. > :06:08.I could do as a job going forward, which was not far from
:06:09. > :06:11.And it seems that Andy's experiences are far from unique.
:06:12. > :06:14.According to research carridd out by the MS society,
:06:15. > :06:16.who spoke to more than 1000 people who have the condition,
:06:17. > :06:19.around a quarter said they felt mistreated by their employers
:06:20. > :06:24.and around one fifth said they had been badly treated
:06:25. > :06:27.And it's not only people with MS who can find such problems.
:06:28. > :06:30.Sarah Evans is a solicitor who specialises in employment law.
:06:31. > :06:33.We speak to, as you can imagine a lot of employees who have
:06:34. > :06:38.disabilities, who are encountering negative behaviour,
:06:39. > :06:43.You can't treat somebody less favourably or unfavourably
:06:44. > :06:46.because of something arising from a disability.
:06:47. > :07:00.He took his old employers to an appointment tribunal
:07:01. > :07:02.-- employment tribunal and won his case for unfair
:07:03. > :07:05.He was awarded ?83,000 but said he eventually had to settle
:07:06. > :07:08.for just 66,000 of that, another example he says of how
:07:09. > :07:10.the system is often weighted against people like him.
:07:11. > :07:13.Dave Guest, BBC North West Tonight, Liverpool.
:07:14. > :07:16.I'm joined now from London by the Senior Policy Officer
:07:17. > :07:28.We heard in Dave Guest's report there, a quite staggering fhgure
:07:29. > :07:34.from a survey from your sochety that so many people with MS and other
:07:35. > :07:39.conditions are still being discriminated within the workplace.
:07:40. > :07:44.Yes, definitely. So MS is a neurological condition that affects
:07:45. > :07:49.over 100,000 people in the TK. It is very painful and can be extremely
:07:50. > :07:52.tiring and then have an effdct on how people move, walk, think, feel
:07:53. > :08:00.and see so we are deeply concerned by these figures. As this rdport
:08:01. > :08:03.said, O most -- almost one puarter of people we spoke to said they had
:08:04. > :08:07.been treated at the wider elployer as a result of their condithon and
:08:08. > :08:11.one fifth said there were colleagues had treated them badly as wdll. That
:08:12. > :08:17.is the most shopping thing, perhaps, that their colleagues would treat
:08:18. > :08:22.them differently. -- the most shocking thing. Let's be cldar, it
:08:23. > :08:27.is illegal to sack someone based on their health? It is a complhcated
:08:28. > :08:30.thing. What I would say is that MS is covered by the equality `ct and
:08:31. > :08:36.some of the experiences we have heard about are deeply worrxing
:08:37. > :08:40.People reporting things likd feeling bullied, facing humiliating and
:08:41. > :08:43.offensive comments and in some cases feeling they were forced out of work
:08:44. > :08:55.unfairly and this is deeply concerning for us. We know that
:08:56. > :08:59.terrible symptoms appear whdn they are in their 20s or 30s, whhch is
:09:00. > :09:04.when they are likely to be hn work. When you look at it from thd other
:09:05. > :09:07.side can you understand that for many small businesses it can be
:09:08. > :09:13.difficult for them to keep on an employee with a long-term hdalth
:09:14. > :09:17.difficulty? I can understand some of the trepidation that employdrs might
:09:18. > :09:20.reveal. We know that there hs generally a lack of awareness and
:09:21. > :09:25.understanding of MS. What wd would say is we know there are sole people
:09:26. > :09:29.with MS who are unable to work but there are many who are and for those
:09:30. > :09:32.still able to work it is actually small adjustments on the part of
:09:33. > :09:36.employers and having supported employers and colleagues th`t can
:09:37. > :09:40.make a huge difference. We think there are things both emploxers and
:09:41. > :09:45.governments can do that are within their grasp, that can reallx help to
:09:46. > :09:47.address this issue. Lauren, thank you for joining us this evening
:09:48. > :09:53.Thank you very much. Plans to use green belt
:09:54. > :09:56.land for major housing developments have been unvehled
:09:57. > :09:58.by Greater Manchester counchls. If the plans are approved it
:09:59. > :10:01.would be the first time gredn belt land would lose its protecthve
:10:02. > :10:09.status since the 1980s. Over the next 20 years greater
:10:10. > :10:12.Manchester has to build But some MP's and councillors say
:10:13. > :10:15.it's pandering to developers. Here's our environment
:10:16. > :10:17.correspondent Judy Hobson. Greenbelt land was designed
:10:18. > :10:19.to protect our towns and cities from urban sprawl
:10:20. > :10:21.to ensure we all live But council leaders
:10:22. > :10:24.in Greater Manchester These are the current
:10:25. > :10:34.greenbelt areas. some greenbelt land would bd
:10:35. > :10:37.offered to developers. Stockport could lose 9%
:10:38. > :10:39.of it's greenbelt land. But those behind the plans say
:10:40. > :10:42.they have no choice. It's thought Greater Manchester s
:10:43. > :10:54.population could grow The reality is, based on thd data we
:10:55. > :10:58.have, we don't believe we c`n contain all of that growth, housing
:10:59. > :11:02.and employment growth, withhn the existing urban area, therefore we
:11:03. > :11:04.have to look at how we might sensibly and sensitively developed
:11:05. > :11:07.outside the urban area in the green belt.
:11:08. > :11:11.tearing up so much greenbelt is unneccesarry and are deshgned
:11:12. > :11:23.I will be battling to make sure that places in my constituency are
:11:24. > :11:28.protected before these houshng developers can just pick and choose
:11:29. > :11:31.greenfield sites and ignore the fact that there are many brown fheld
:11:32. > :11:39.sites in my constituency and across greater Manchester that havd public
:11:40. > :11:42.support to be developed first. This is a Brownfield site in Denton.
:11:43. > :11:47.Permission has already been given for this to be developed. Only so
:11:48. > :11:49.far no company has come forward saying it wants to build on it.
:11:50. > :12:01.This area is attractive to developers. I love it as it is but
:12:02. > :12:05.we need houses so it is that are going to have to go. I think it
:12:06. > :12:08.would be a shame really bec`use everybody uses it, you walk down
:12:09. > :12:11.here with the children, go to the deep docks and exercise the dogs and
:12:12. > :12:15.everything. The plans will be put to publci
:12:16. > :12:18.consulation at the end of the month but it appears most councils

:23:08. > :23:26.All these outlandish people around me
:23:27. > :23:30.are indulging in a bit of escapism based on all things Victori`na.
:23:31. > :23:33.They've chosen to have their splendid day out in an old resort
:23:34. > :23:41.where the Victorians used to escape to, lovely Morecambe.

:24:51. > :25:01.Well, I certainly enjoyed bringing out my own inner Peacock
:25:02. > :25:04.and for one day at least, these steampunks have travelled
:25:05. > :25:07.on their own time machine to bring Victorian glamour
:25:08. > :25:18.They do make an effort. Gre`t. Looks like fun.
:25:19. > :25:20.And in just over half an hotr, you can see Simon's full ten-minute
:25:21. > :25:23.film about his day out with the Steampunks
:25:24. > :25:30.Which of course is presented by Diane, but you are going to give us
:25:31. > :25:38.the weather just now. Yes, I feel like I've been doing the
:25:39. > :25:42.same weather forecast for a week now because nothing is changing. We have
:25:43. > :25:46.been in a settled pattern. But the good news as we head towards the
:25:47. > :25:50.weekend is a lot of fine and dry weather but it will feel cold in the
:25:51. > :25:54.overnight periods. We are s`ying static thanks to an area of high
:25:55. > :25:57.pressure. We thought we would get an area of low pressure that would mix
:25:58. > :26:02.things up at it looks like that won't happen so next week looks like
:26:03. > :26:05.being relatively settled but you can see there is a weather front that
:26:06. > :26:09.will eventually get to us btt it may not be until Wednesday before things
:26:10. > :26:14.break down. It was a lovely bright day with long spells of sunshine.
:26:15. > :26:17.One or two showers have popped up here and there. I'm showing this
:26:18. > :26:22.picture so that if you are heading out this evening you may sed one or
:26:23. > :26:27.two for a short while. But ht is dry for most of us and also cle`r, long
:26:28. > :26:32.clear spells. Temperatures `s low as three Celsius in rural areas. Towns
:26:33. > :26:39.or cities a few degrees higher. If you are up early tomorrow it appeals
:26:40. > :26:49.down. That macro it feels not so nice. Cold nights, slow start but
:26:50. > :26:52.when the sunshine comes through it appeals pleasant. 5% chance of
:26:53. > :26:56.shower as we had through thd afternoon. Most of us will be dry
:26:57. > :27:02.the whole way through. Tempdratures 12 or 13 Celsius. Both days look
:27:03. > :27:09.pretty good. It sounds like Richard might need his hat tonight. I don't
:27:10. > :27:14.think you ever need one of those, do you? Not really, no! So it hs on
:27:15. > :27:21.Friday tonight because the Olympic parade is on Monday so inside out on
:27:22. > :27:28.this evening. Have a lovely weekend, buy buy.
