Welcome to South East Today, I'm Polly Evans, and I'm Rob Smith. | :00:03. | :00:06. | |
Tonight's top stories: A motorway U-turn being welcomed by | :00:06. | :00:08. | |
drivers - planned rises on the Dartford crossing tolls have been | :00:08. | :00:13. | |
put on ice. We'll bring you the details on the story live from | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
dartford. Unions accuse the government of | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
"blind panic" as civil service volunteers are asked to staff | :00:18. | :00:28. | |
:00:28. | :00:32. | ||
border controls during strike action. To suggest that people are | :00:32. | :00:38. | |
such senior civil servants or with two days training is a nonsense. | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
Also in tonight's programme: An extra million pounds a year - | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
Kent's social services say they are struggling to cope with the number | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
of homeless teenagers needing care. A handmade history of Sussex - the | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
Sixties scrapbooks of the WI detailing the shocked reaction to | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
mini-skirts and other momentous changes. | :00:51. | :00:55. | |

of a powerboat, 11-year-old Ben Good evening. Plans to increase | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
toll charges at the Dartford Crossing next month have been | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
dropped. The government has also scrapped another planned rise in | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
April, but it has left the door open for rises in the future. | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
Ministers decided on the U-turn after carrying out public | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
consultation into the plans. Let's cross live to Ian Palmer in | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
Dartford. There was strong opposition to the proposed | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
increases, wasn't there, Ian? there were. They are very pleased | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
that they have been reversed, but other people are seething with | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
anger that there at any toll charges at all. In the past, you | :01:51. | :01:59. | |
will know why. In November 2008, the toll charge was �1.50, end in | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
November of this yet it was proposed that would be increased by | :02:04. | :02:14. | |
:02:14. | :02:15. | ||
�1, and a further charge increase in April,. 2012 those charges have | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
been scrapped, of course, and it will remain at their present levels | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
until 2013 at least. At last, some good news for | :02:27. | :02:35. | |
motorists and the South East. increases will way over inflation. | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
What we need to ensure is that any future increases are in line with | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
current inflation levels. That has got to be good for everyone. If | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
people are going over there every day to worker, and coming back, | :02:49. | :02:56. | |
that is an extra �1 a day. That is a lot of money. I think it is a | :02:56. | :03:06. | |
good idea. I use the tunnel very often. However, some drivers are | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
furious toll charges have not been scrapped altogether. They have gone | :03:11. | :03:21. | |
:03:21. | :03:22. | ||
back on their word again. When it was paid, they said they would be | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
no toll. So you never believe what they say. Governments in the past | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
have ignored consultations. I will look very carefully vetted, and I | :03:33. | :03:43. | |
:03:43. | :03:45. | ||
have deferred them now. -- carefully at it. The MP for | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
Dartford says it is vital traffic in the area it is kept moving. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
we need is to get rid of the congestion. I welcomed the fact | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
that that will happen in 2013 by removing the toll barriers | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
themselves. I would like to see the toll removed in its entirety. We | :04:05. | :04:12. | |
need to get rid of the toll books, and using technology instead. | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
therein lies the problem: Roads are becoming more congested. New | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
alternatives and solutions need to be found. But who will pay for | :04:22. | :04:29. | |
them? Take a look behind me is the reason why the government says it | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
needs to continue charging to cross the River Thames. It is because of | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
the congestion, which is costing business money. The Government | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
needs to invest in barrier less toll technology, and possibly the | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
building of another bridge. It has to charge that money, and has to | :04:50. | :04:59. | |
keep car uses paint. -- pay in. Ministers have been accused by | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
unions of blind panic that could put our border security at risk for | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
plans to line up civil servants to act as border staff during next | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
week's public sector strike action. The Government fears there could be | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
major disruption for travellers at our ports and airports, so | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
volunteers are being asked to step Border agency staff are at the | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
front line when it comes to detecting drugs, illegal immigrant | :05:20. | :05:27. | |
and even bombs, but the staff who police our borders are expected to | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
strike next Wednesday in protest at government pension changes. The | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
government says civil servant volunteers will stand in, but union | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
say they won't have the proper training. I think it is an insult | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
to our professional members, many of whom have 30 years of experience, | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
to suggest that somebody could do a two day course and replicate the | :05:49. | :05:58. | |
work they carry out. But not all residents share the concerns. | :05:58. | :06:07. | |
professionals seem to do a bad job of it anyway, so I can't see if | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
they make a threat. They would do a better job, I think, because I | :06:13. | :06:20. | |
don't they make him do a worse job. Shut or the airport down, and that | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
is it for the day. The strike action will put the government in | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
conflict with the border agency. Earlier this month, more than 10 | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
million people entered the UK in August without being fully checked. | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
The head of the operator, Brodie Clark, was forced to resign, but | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
fought back, telling MPs he was no road offers a. On Tuesday, Damian | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
Green told the same committee that they had not been told to relax the | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
cheques. -- broke officer. Heathrow and Gatwick are two of our big | :06:59. | :07:07. | |
airports. Much of the affect of the strike will be felt in the South | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
East, that is why we have taken the measures. Be Prime Minister says | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
the government would do what it can to make sure that airports remain | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
open. But the one thing they don't seem to be prepared to do is put | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
more money on the table. Our reporter Katherine Downes is | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
live in Dover. Katherine, what kind of impact can people expect to see | :07:28. | :07:38. | |
:07:38. | :07:40. | ||
in Dover? The unions claim that 97% of staff are unionised. In fact, | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
the border agency have admitted that passengers should be prepared | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
for extra long waiting times at checkpoints if the strike goes | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
ahead, and that is looking unlikely since the war of words between the | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
government and the unions has stepped up a notch. David Cameron | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
has accused strikers of causing disruption. The unions have hit | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
back saying the government is desperate, and instead of | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
scratching around looking for volunteers to man the borders, they | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
should be coming back to the table towed renegotiate. But that is | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
looking unlikely. In a moment: Removing the Staffie | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
stigma - animal charities call for the reputation of the Bull Terriers | :08:22. | :08:32. | |
:08:32. | :08:33. | ||
An extra �1 million is needed to cope with the number of homeless | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
teenagers needing care in Kent, according to the county's social | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
services. Some 16 and 17-year-olds are currently being placed in Bed & | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
Breakfasts, despite a ruling by Law Lords that they should have | :08:44. | :08:54. | |
:08:54. | :08:54. | ||
supported accommodation. 16-year-old Chelsea, who wants to | :08:54. | :09:01. | |
remain anonymous, said that she was asked to leave home. I felt like I | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
had nothing. I went into a massive stage of drinking and drugs because | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
of it. I couldn't cope with the thought I had in my head of why I | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
got rejected. I used drink and drugs to cover that up. She has | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
found a place in supported accommodation. But others are still | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
being placed on their own in bed and breakfasts, despite a court | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
ruling saying councils have to provide support and accommodation. | :09:32. | :09:41. | |
So on times, it is unavoidable will -- sometimes, a for a teenager to | :09:42. | :09:51. | |
be placed in a bed-and-breakfast. Kent County Councils says teenagers | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
come to them each yet needing accommodation. -- come to them | :09:58. | :10:05. | |
needing. The bill is �1 million a year. Increasing numbers of | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
youngsters seeking accommodation and support is creeping up, but we | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
also have the ban ability of these young people. We have got people | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
with mental health problems. -- at the vulnerability. All of that adds | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
to the problem. Kent County Council says its goal is to reduce the | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
number of teenagers turning up on the doorstep needing accommodation | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
by investing more in preventative services, trying to stop the | :10:37. | :10:44. | |
problem before it gets to that stage. You feel like worthless. You | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
are sitting there on a street corner or bench, and seeing | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
everyone go past and knowing they have homes to go to. The government | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
says it is up to councils how they spend their money. | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
Two teenagers have been found guilty of recklessly starting a | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
fire that caused thousands of pounds worth of damage at a retail | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
park in Eastbourne last Christmas. More than 80 firefighters were | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
needed to put out the flames. The 17 and 18-year-old, who can't be | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
named for legal reasons, will be sentenced next month. | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
A 72-year-old woman is in a critical condition following a | :11:20. | :11:26. | |
crash involving four vehicles on the A27 near Eastbourne yesterday. | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
Seven people were injured in the incident. Sussex Police are | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
appealing for witnesses. People who fail to pay library | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
fines in Kent will soon find themselves being chased by a | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
private American debt collecting company. Kent County Council, which | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
issued over 700,000 fines last year, is still owed more than �100,000. | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
Our social affairs correspondent, Yvette Austin, is live in Tunbridge | :11:49. | :11:55. | |
Wells. So why has Kent County Council decided to go abroad for | :11:55. | :12:03. | |
help? �100,000, a lot of money in these tough times, and the library | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
is one their books back, so they have enlisted the help of an | :12:06. | :12:12. | |
American company which specialises in this type of work. It will send | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
out letters under the company heading, unique international | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
recovery is. What are people here think? I wouldn't mind if it is | :12:23. | :12:31. | |
doing a good job. It wouldn't bother me. It should be sorted out | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
by somebody in Britain, really. If there is a problem here, I don't | :12:36. | :12:43. | |
see why the Americans should get involved. Provided it is done in a | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
reputable way, I don't think it matters whether they are American | :12:46. | :12:55. | |
or Burmese or whatever. Has there been other reaction? A spokesman | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
for the Citizen's Advice Bureaux said he was flabbergasted at the | :12:57. | :13:04. | |
news. They are concerned people's credit references will be affected. | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
And a spokesperson for the union says it should be local people | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
employed for this work. They have been stigmatised as | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
dangerous dogs, often portrayed as the first choice of drug dealers | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
and thugs. But today, animal charities and MPs have called for | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
the reputation of Staffordshire Bull Terriers to be restored. At | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
the Kent branch of the Battersea Cats and Dogs Home, experts say the | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
breed makes up one in five of all their abandoned dogs - that's up | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
from one in 10 five years ago. And while it takes them 53 days to | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
rehouse a dog on average, one abandoned Staffie was in their care | :13:36. | :13:46. | |
:13:46. | :13:50. | ||
for 18 months before they could However affectionate he is, many | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
people will walk past this dog. He is a young, healthy dog, but there | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
is no getting past his breed. He is a Staffordshire bull terrier, and | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
that comes with baggage. I think it is because of the look. They are | :14:05. | :14:12. | |
associated with other dogs around. Their true nature of the dock, they | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
are a happy, from the dock. As long as you didn't care and attention | :14:15. | :14:21. | |
when they are young, they will be a lovely family pet. Staffordshire | :14:21. | :14:29. | |
terriers have a bad press. When pit-bulls were outlawed, many | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
people who wanted a canine knuckle- dusters Mouton to Steffi's. -- | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
moved on to Staffordshire bull terriers. There was that the debate | :14:39. | :14:45. | |
on the dangerous Dogs Act today. There has been a stigmatisation of | :14:45. | :14:53. | |
an entire breed, which makes up a huge number of the abandoned dogs a | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
Battersea Dogs Home. By are hard to re-homed. These people do not need | :14:59. | :15:06. | |
any persuasion. They have this dog from a dog's home in August. He is | :15:06. | :15:13. | |
a loving dog, and he has had lots of fun with our grandson. He has | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
fitted writing. They just want to please all the time. You could | :15:18. | :15:24. | |
train him to be nasty, but what would you do that? Today, Battersea | :15:24. | :15:34. | |
:15:34. | :15:37. | ||
Dogs Home launched a campaign to remove the stigma. Those who | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
stigmatise are putting the blame at This is our top story tonight. | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
Plans to increase toll charges at the Dartford Crossing next month | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
have been dropped. The government says they have also scrapped | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
another planned rise in April - but have left the door open for rises | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
in the future. Also in tonight's programme: Piecing together a | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
history of Sussex. An exhibition of scrapbooks from the WI - marking | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
the death of Churchill and the arrival of the miniskirt! And in | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
the driver's seat at the tender age of 11, the Kent boy who's already a | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
powerboat champion. And I will be letting you know why we will not | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
get a frost tonight, but we might one get -- might get one tomorrow | :16:16. | :16:26. | |
:16:26. | :16:35. | ||
night. You can conduct us. -- It's one of Kent's most important | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
Victorian landmarks. But the Grade II-listed Beaney Institute in | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
Canterbury has been closed for three years, while master craftsmen | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
carry out painstaking restoration work inside. The �13 million | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
project is nearing completion - and Peter Whittlesea's been given a | :16:45. | :16:55. | |
:16:55. | :17:02. | ||
tour of the building for tonight's War-torn Canterbury was the setting | :17:02. | :17:09. | |
for a Canterbury Tale. A I do not blame me for not known way you are. | :17:09. | :17:14. | |
The revered Copper Institute was inspired by the Beanie Institute in | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
the City, where a current restoration project has been | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
delayed by a beetle. It cost around �500,000 more. There was a 10 month | :17:25. | :17:31. | |
delay. We had to a pawn up -- apply to the Heritage Lottery, he gave us | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
�500,000 towards the cost of the restoration. We have received more | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
in France, which is fantastic. Although it was something we did | :17:38. | :17:45. | |
not want to find, the results are fantastic. The building is named | :17:45. | :17:51. | |
after someone who gave �10,000 to the city of his birth in 1897. He | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
was a philanthropist who but Creek -- bequeath the money on condition | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
that the money was spent in the main hall. The result is a | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
hotchpotch of styles which has made the restoration challenging. This | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
is a mixture of various architectural start -- | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
architectural styles, and some of it is reminiscent of the medieval | :18:13. | :18:20. | |
period, and it also has the arts and crafts as well. They are made | :18:20. | :18:30. | |
up of small pieces of white marble and pink sandstone chips. All of | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
the marbles have been prepared piece by piece. It has been left in | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
its natural colour. It's it's easy to distinguish between the old and | :18:40. | :18:46. | |
new work. The art gallery and library will return in March next | :18:46. | :18:56. | |
:18:56. | :19:02. | ||
They're a valuable record of Sussex life in the 20th century, offering | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
an insight into the way we reacted to momentous events - like the | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
death of Winston Churchill and the emergence of the mini-skirt! Now a | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
collection of scrapbooks compiled by members of the East Sussex | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
Women's Institute nearly 50 years ago have been donated to the County | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
Records office in Lewes. Natalie Graham has been taking a look at a | :19:19. | :19:29. | |
:19:29. | :19:33. | ||
Rural life in Sussex in the 1960s was pretty primitive by today's | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
standards, but not untouched by the changes taking place in the wider | :19:37. | :19:45. | |
world. 0 -- no one more -- knew more about the changing in life | :19:45. | :19:50. | |
than the Women's Institute. As this scrap Cheers -- scrapbook shows, | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
many houses did not have mains water, and a main bathroom was | :19:54. | :20:01. | |
considered a luxury. Action -- fashions were changing too. The | :20:01. | :20:11. | |

both sexes. They are a wonderful resource. They cover such a wide | :20:24. | :20:33. | |
range of items. They are snapshots in time. The same year at the | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
scrapbooks were made, this film and in Pilbrow was filmed -- this farm | :20:38. | :20:47. | |
was filmed to demonstrate farming changes. BWI recorded bay lies on | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
