:00:04. > :00:10.Welcome to South East Today. I'm Rob Smith.

:00:10. > :00:14.And I'm Polly Evans. Tonight's top stories. More than 100 jobs under

:00:14. > :00:17.threat in Dover as SeaFrance is put into liquidation. So why are French

:00:17. > :00:20.workers celebrating? As youth unemployment reaches the

:00:20. > :00:30.million mark, the Shadow Chancellor visits Kent and asks what is the

:00:30. > :00:32.

:00:32. > :00:36.Government's plan for jobs? We had a plan, the Chancellor should

:00:36. > :00:38.listen to our plan for jobs and growth.

:00:38. > :00:41.Also in tonight's programme: Four more charge points for electric

:00:41. > :00:44.cars in Brighton - but why are so few people using them?

:00:44. > :00:46.It's a tall order - we meet the men repainting the Dungeness famous

:00:46. > :00:50.lighthouse. Going from strength to strength, by

:00:50. > :00:53.the skin of its teeth - refusing to give up the ghost. Happy 400th

:00:53. > :01:03.birthday to the book that changed the English language - the King

:01:03. > :01:05.

:01:05. > :01:07.James Bible. Good evening. The cross channel

:01:07. > :01:12.ferry operator SeaFrance has been put into liquidation, after a court

:01:12. > :01:15.in Paris rejected two bids to buy the company. It means 135 Dover-

:01:15. > :01:18.based employees will be made redundant, and their ferries

:01:18. > :01:25.between Kent and Calais will stop running at the end of January

:01:25. > :01:27.unless a new buyer can be found. However, French workers were

:01:27. > :01:31.actually celebrating the ruling today, saying it gives them more

:01:31. > :01:39.time to raise the 50 million euros they need to give them a chance to

:01:39. > :01:44.buy the company. Peter Whittlesea reports.

:01:44. > :01:48.Police and minibus after police minibus, the threat of workers

:01:48. > :01:53.scuttling the ferries has taken very seriously in Calais. These

:01:53. > :01:58.ships were going nowhere, but at midday, SeaFrance was given a

:01:58. > :02:05.reprieve with the French Court rejecting an offer St approved bid

:02:05. > :02:13.would have to be submitted by December. The unions in France were

:02:13. > :02:23.happy with this. The first time, the cut-off point was nearly half

:02:23. > :02:24.

:02:24. > :02:29.of the jobs and we were not convinced at all that the 460

:02:29. > :02:33.others would remain for a long time. Despite the reprieve, the police

:02:34. > :02:40.remained. It was reported more than 1,000 officers were on standby in

:02:40. > :02:45.Calais. The police presence start its here. Every car going end was

:02:45. > :02:49.stopped and we spotted 20 mini buses full of riot police. To give

:02:49. > :02:58.you an idea of security, a few seconds after we got out of the car,

:02:58. > :03:04.we. By customs officers and asked to produce a passport. French

:03:04. > :03:07.unions are asking to buy out the company, but British workers say

:03:07. > :03:13.they do not care who buys the company as long as they keep their

:03:13. > :03:16.jobs. I do not have a preference, we would all like to be employed,

:03:16. > :03:20.but we want a solid future going forward and not constant

:03:20. > :03:25.uncertainty every year. It is estimated the co-operative would

:03:25. > :03:30.have to raise at least 50 million euros to have any chance of buying

:03:30. > :03:35.SeaFrance. Financial experts think this is unlikely. I would imagine

:03:35. > :03:38.like everyone else in the euro-zone, the appetite to lend money to a

:03:38. > :03:47.business which is currently failing would be pretty slim.

:03:47. > :03:52.The French workers celebrated the ruling today in Calais, but with

:03:52. > :03:54.just six weeks left to save their jobs, the celebrations could be

:03:54. > :04:01.premature. Peter Whittlesea with that report,

:04:02. > :04:07.and he joins us live from Dover. There were no sailings today?

:04:07. > :04:12.and as a result, the lorries are building up on the and 50. They are

:04:12. > :04:16.trying to deal with the congestion problems. Now, the problem in Dover

:04:16. > :04:22.is what will happen to those 135 people that work for SeaFrance

:04:22. > :04:27.here? The French unions say the new way to safeguard those jobs is to

:04:27. > :04:32.back a buyout plan. They will not comment on them claims, but

:04:32. > :04:39.industry experts say, was going to lend money to workers who

:04:39. > :04:45.threatened to scuttle their own ships? Coming up: How donations to

:04:45. > :04:47.Pudsey are beating the bullies. With new figures out today showing

:04:47. > :04:50.that youth unemployment has continued to rise across the

:04:50. > :04:56.country, Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls came to Chatham to visit the advice

:04:56. > :04:59.service Connexions. The number of 16 to 24 year olds out of work has

:04:59. > :05:09.risen to just over a million, which is the highest since records began

:05:09. > :05:15.

:05:15. > :05:20.19 years ago. Our political editor Louise Stewart has this report.

:05:20. > :05:24.On the day unemployment amongst 18 to 24 year-olds reached a record

:05:24. > :05:32.high, the Shadow Chancellor came to Chatham to meet young people

:05:32. > :05:35.getting CV and interview skills advice. The latest unemployment

:05:35. > :05:38.figures array further blow to these young people a few miles away in

:05:38. > :05:43.Maidstone, many of the have struggles to find work since

:05:43. > :05:47.leaving school. I left school three years ago and went to college for

:05:47. > :05:52.one year, and after that, I went looking for jobs everywhere like

:05:52. > :05:56.pound land, different places like that, I gave in as many CVs as

:05:56. > :06:00.possible and it is so difficult because they do not even replied.

:06:00. > :06:05.It is very difficult, because outside, there is nothing, and

:06:05. > :06:11.everywhere is closed. It is very difficult to find work in this

:06:11. > :06:15.country. Am doing an apprenticeship ended his seeming a lot easier to

:06:15. > :06:22.make his CV and you get more confidence to go out and get work.

:06:22. > :06:31.The total has gone up to 6%, reaching 276,000 in the region. The

:06:31. > :06:36.picture is similarly bleak are -- among the young with 1.0 2 million

:06:36. > :06:38.people out of work. The challenge for young people in coastal towns

:06:38. > :06:43.of the south-east where the unemployment level is higher is to

:06:43. > :06:47.make sure that we give young people the best possible start to get into

:06:47. > :06:51.those employment opportunities that are available. There is no doubt

:06:52. > :06:55.there is a challenge persuading the employers to take out somebody

:06:55. > :07:00.without experience. Through work experience and through the matching

:07:00. > :07:05.service available, we try to get young people into an environment to

:07:05. > :07:10.show employee has the potential that they have. One such scheme is

:07:10. > :07:14.this one in Kent. We changed the strategy, rather than a scattergun

:07:14. > :07:18.approach, we get them to find work experience with employers that

:07:18. > :07:21.offer what they are looking for and it gives the personal touch and

:07:21. > :07:26.employers are much more willing to take them on at the end of the day.

:07:26. > :07:30.The Government says it has already taken on an initiative to get

:07:30. > :07:34.people into work, but that is little consolation for those

:07:34. > :07:38.dropping to find a job. A little earlier I spoke with the

:07:38. > :07:40.Shadow chancellor Ed Balls and put it to him that the first time youth

:07:40. > :07:44.unemployment had reached the million mark had actually been in

:07:44. > :07:47.2009, under the then Labour government.

:07:47. > :07:55.Before the global financial crisis, we had to lower youth unemployment

:07:55. > :08:04.that we inherited in 1997. We had the financial crisis and then the

:08:04. > :08:08.deficit at Kurds and. On the figures that I can see, that had

:08:08. > :08:12.risen to 748,000 by 2004, well before the global crisis and that

:08:12. > :08:16.was consistently high through to the end of the Labour

:08:16. > :08:19.administration. You have got to measure that as a percentage of the

:08:19. > :08:24.overall population, the fact is, the number of young people was

:08:24. > :08:28.growing during that period. The overall level had come down, but it

:08:28. > :08:33.then went up in the global crisis, but we acted with the future jobs

:08:33. > :08:37.funds to get opportunities for young people. That was abolished,

:08:37. > :08:41.the Government was trying to go faster with death as a true

:08:41. > :08:45.reduction and now unemployment is rising to record levels, be the

:08:45. > :08:50.high for young people, women and men, and having excuses or blaming

:08:50. > :08:55.Labour in the past or the euro-zone, that is not responsible government.

:08:55. > :08:59.They are in charge, they have got it wrong, they need to act, we had

:08:59. > :09:02.a plan, that is the only way to get the deficit down, and I say to

:09:02. > :09:06.people in Kent, there is a plan, we have got a plan.

:09:06. > :09:12.Ed Balls, the Shadow Chancellor talking to me earlier - and you can

:09:12. > :09:17.see the whole interview on our website, bbc.co.uk/kent. Our

:09:17. > :09:21.political editor is here now, and Ed Balls say the Government needed

:09:21. > :09:27.to change course to promote growth? Yes, that is the message from the

:09:27. > :09:31.opposition, from Labour. Unemployment is always a hot potato,

:09:31. > :09:34.bad news for the Government when it rises, but it clearly with the

:09:34. > :09:38.young people and with women where it has done this now, but it is

:09:38. > :09:42.worth noting that although unemployment has rivers in in the

:09:42. > :09:47.south-east will be 6% in the last three months, it is lower than the

:09:47. > :09:51.same time last year and still the lowest in the whole country. --

:09:51. > :09:54.unemployment has risen in the south-east.

:09:54. > :09:56.And later in the programme we'll be examining how authorities are using

:09:56. > :09:59.apprenticeships to tackle the problem of youth unemployment.

:09:59. > :10:02.A man is accused of inciting looting in Hastings through his

:10:02. > :10:05.Facebook site after posting a message saying he would be stealing

:10:05. > :10:08.things for his young daughter. 27- year-old Nathan Sinden was arrested

:10:08. > :10:18.during the height of this summer's riots when police were alerted to

:10:18. > :10:18.

:10:18. > :10:23.his Facebook page. Sarah Smith reports.

:10:23. > :10:26.These were the pictures on our TV screens in August. Rioting and

:10:26. > :10:30.looting in London that spread around the country leading police

:10:30. > :10:36.officers anxious it would not happen in their area. Against this

:10:36. > :10:46.backdrop, Neath in Sind and took to his computer. He wrote on his

:10:46. > :10:58.

:10:58. > :11:02.Facebook Page, let's start a riot In response to this message, he

:11:02. > :11:09.said that. He told the court he had just been joking when he wrote

:11:09. > :11:13.those lines. He said he had not been encouraging people to go out

:11:13. > :11:18.and take part in disorder, to burble premises as accused, he had

:11:18. > :11:22.just been messing around. A police officer told the court that these

:11:22. > :11:27.messages and others like it had caused most shops and businesses in

:11:27. > :11:31.the area to close early that night and that uniform officers were

:11:31. > :11:41.deployed to the town centre as rumours of trouble circulated. He

:11:41. > :11:46.

:11:46. > :11:48.denies encouraging anyone to go looting.

:11:48. > :11:52.Four new recharging points for electric cars have been installed

:11:52. > :11:55.on the streets of Brighton and Hove - in addition to the four that were

:11:55. > :11:58.installed at the start of last year. Drivers can recharge their vehicle

:11:58. > :12:00.for free for a trial period, but there are concerns about the

:12:00. > :12:02.numbers of people taking up the scheme. Our Environment

:12:02. > :12:05.Correspondent Yvette Austin joins me now from Brighton.

:12:05. > :12:10.If you have ever seen one of these before, this could be that filling

:12:11. > :12:16.station of the future. �130,000 of money from Europe and the City

:12:16. > :12:21.Council has been spent on providing aid of these. The money, it does a

:12:21. > :12:25.lot, I know, but people are increasingly the way for word, but

:12:25. > :12:27.the electricity from them has not been attracting as many people as

:12:27. > :12:35.they would like, even though it is free.

:12:35. > :12:39.You open up this hatch and you have two sockets, one is to have a fast

:12:39. > :12:46.charge and the other one is for an ordinary charge. No more petrol

:12:47. > :12:50.pumps, this new electric car says 60 to �70 a week in fuel costs.

:12:50. > :12:54.This costs virtually nothing to run because the electricity is free

:12:54. > :13:04.from these points. I have solar panels that tone, so it is also

:13:04. > :13:09.free bear. I spend about �400 every month and diesel for other cars I

:13:09. > :13:14.have got, but I do not do that now. In a city like Brighton with air

:13:14. > :13:19.pollution problems, and emissions free car seems like the way forward.

:13:19. > :13:24.These points produce power on tap, but the city council is

:13:24. > :13:30.disappointed with the uptake of just 22 cars using them. Any new

:13:30. > :13:34.initiative always takes a while to take off, but we would like more.

:13:35. > :13:40.22 is a good start. The slow start may be because the average cost of

:13:41. > :13:44.an electric car is nearly �30,000, one-third more expensive than a

:13:44. > :13:50.normal ones. Begin take up to 10 hours to fully charged and it lasts

:13:50. > :13:56.for just 100 miles, inevitably, views are mixed. I am in favour of

:13:56. > :14:02.saving the ozone layer and whatever else, it is a good idea. You could

:14:02. > :14:10.spend five hours driving up and then have to charge after the

:14:10. > :14:13.charge goes out. It would work in Brighton. If you're not in Brighton

:14:14. > :14:19.and there are no charge., what is the electric car version of a

:14:19. > :14:24.petrol can? I have a generator that I had used about 12 times in the

:14:24. > :14:30.last four months as an emergency supply. This is when the post has

:14:30. > :14:36.not been available. It seems we cannot do without petrol just yet.

:14:36. > :14:40.So, you can charge up here, go to London, charged there and get back,

:14:40. > :14:43.also you can go to hide where there are some points and get back, but

:14:43. > :14:48.it is a few and far between. The Government needs to invest in a

:14:48. > :14:50.wide range of a network of these so that people can use the money where

:14:50. > :14:52.they go. Thank you.

:14:52. > :14:56.This is our top story tonight. Ferry operator SeaFrance has been

:14:56. > :14:59.put into liquidation after a French court rejected two bids to buy the

:14:59. > :15:02.company. More than 130 jobs in Dover are now under threat and

:15:02. > :15:06.their ferries could stop running at the end of January, unless a new

:15:06. > :15:09.buyer is found. Also in tonight's programme -

:15:09. > :15:13.straight up, its a makeover. Dungeness Edwardian lighthouse gets

:15:13. > :15:16.a new coat of paint. The book that's taken root and

:15:16. > :15:26.turned the world upside down - how the King James Bible changed the

:15:26. > :15:27.

:15:27. > :15:30.The unemployment figures out today have been depressing reading -

:15:30. > :15:35.especially for those aged between 16 and 24. Over the years there

:15:35. > :15:39.have been a raft of ideas on how to get this age group into work. In

:15:39. > :15:41.the '70s there was the Youth Opportunities Programme or YOPS. In

:15:41. > :15:45.the '80s, Margaret Thatcher replaced YOPS with YTS or the Youth

:15:45. > :15:50.Training Scheme. Then the last Labour government introduced the

:15:50. > :16:00.Future Jobs Fund - scrapped in March this year. Now the coalition

:16:00. > :16:00.

:16:00. > :16:04.government's big idea is The Work Programme backed by many local MPs.

:16:04. > :16:10.Apprenticeships lead to proper jobs and do my own constituency where we

:16:10. > :16:14.did a campaign recruiting people, we got 181 people. I spoke to one

:16:14. > :16:19.of the training providers, Sussex Downs College, and they said they

:16:19. > :16:24.were getting 91 % conversion rate for all of their hospitality

:16:24. > :16:27.apprenticeships. That means that most of their apprentices went into

:16:27. > :16:29.full-time employment. government has also been pushing

:16:29. > :16:32.apprenticeship schemes. Our reporter Charlie Rose has been in

:16:32. > :16:37.Bexhill to see how youngsters have set up their own business as part

:16:37. > :16:41.of their apprenticeship. 17-year-old Chris Evans is one of

:16:41. > :16:45.their team young apprentices that got together and set up a business

:16:45. > :16:52.here in Bexhill by being trained in IT skills. Until this scheme

:16:52. > :16:55.started last month, he had been unemployed for one-and-a-half years.

:16:55. > :17:02.By was looking all the time I was unemployed and that some response,

:17:02. > :17:07.but I didn't get anywhere. Then I came here, and I got work

:17:07. > :17:11.straightaway. One area involves selling unwanted items on the

:17:11. > :17:16.internet for York will be bothered to not want to do it themselves. --

:17:16. > :17:20.local people who do not want. get a profit from it after the fees

:17:20. > :17:24.had been paid. The training is funded by the Government, and a

:17:24. > :17:28.local company employs the apprentices to run the new business.

:17:28. > :17:33.The young people here are working very hard to achieve not Tony a

:17:33. > :17:37.success now and profit now, but actually create jobs for the future.

:17:37. > :17:43.What would you do if you're not doing this scheme? I would probably

:17:43. > :17:47.be jobless. I don't know. Nationally, the jobless total has

:17:47. > :17:57.had a record high, but the plan for the sin apprentices in Bexhill is

:17:57. > :17:58.

:17:58. > :18:08.to continue bucking the trend. There is more information on the

:18:08. > :18:10.

:18:10. > :18:13.It began helping mariners to navigate the English Channel back

:18:13. > :18:21.in 1904. It's endured two world wars and it's believed the

:18:21. > :18:30.Luftwaffe. Now a team of builders and decorators are helping restore

:18:30. > :18:33.the Kent landmark. This is the Dungeness lighthouse. But it's not

:18:33. > :18:39.just a ladder and paint job, as Chrissie Reidy reports.

:18:39. > :18:44.It has been a long time coming, but after 15 years, the Dungeness

:18:44. > :18:49.lighthouse is being finally restored. We will get through about

:18:49. > :18:54.1.4 tonnes of paint on this lighthouse, putting four coats on.

:18:54. > :19:00.Two coats are waterproof to protected from the elements and

:19:00. > :19:05.then there are colour codes, which are also protected. It has endured

:19:05. > :19:09.two World Wars, whilst savage winters has left it riddled with

:19:09. > :19:15.water damage. We have structural cracks because there was a lot of

:19:15. > :19:19.movement in the airy and it has survived years of airplane bombing,

:19:19. > :19:22.bullets and at quakes and everything. It was opened in the 10

:19:22. > :19:27.of the century by the Prince of Wales and it took three years to

:19:27. > :19:33.complete. It began guiding people across the English Channel back in

:19:33. > :19:37.1904. But when the two power stations were built at Dungeness,

:19:37. > :19:41.Allied has was decommissioned in 1960, because the station master

:19:41. > :19:46.its light ended was no longer visible from the water. It

:19:46. > :19:51.certainly had a colourful life, it was used as a wedding venue and it

:19:51. > :19:59.was used in the Inspector Muna Lee mysteries. Stay back! I said stay

:19:59. > :20:03.back! It has had a wonderful life, it was through two World Wars, and

:20:03. > :20:06.it is one of the leading tourist attractions in Shepway. It is a

:20:06. > :20:10.wonder the place to visit in the summer, you can climb the steps and

:20:10. > :20:15.go on the balcony and there is a wonderful panorama, it is like you

:20:15. > :20:20.can see for ever. Now, they hope this Victorian landmark will be

:20:20. > :20:28.open again next February. Despite campaigns being run in many

:20:28. > :20:31.schools, bullying remains a major problem. According to the NSPCC,

:20:31. > :20:34.around a third of children are affected. But a Children In Need

:20:34. > :20:37.funded project is helping tackle the issue. We've teamed up with BBC

:20:37. > :20:40.School Report who sent three pupils from Cardinal Newman Catholic

:20:40. > :20:48.School in Hove to visit the Safety Net Assertive Project. They met

:20:48. > :20:56.Dylan who shared his story. It first happened in reception.
