:00:08. > :00:10.Tonight's top stories. It was preventable. The expdrts who
:00:11. > :00:16.blame short`term thinking in Government for the recent flooding.
:00:17. > :00:19.Seven years' worth of erosion in a matter of weeks. The Nation`l Trust
:00:20. > :00:24.says it's frightened by the amount of cliff falls happening along the
:00:25. > :00:27.Kent and Sussex coast. We'rd live in Hastings, where one of the lost
:00:28. > :00:29.dramatic falls took place l`st month.
:00:30. > :00:32.My words were taken out of context. The Kent minister defending her
:00:33. > :00:39.comments about women wanting to take part in "feminine" sports.
:00:40. > :00:44.I think that women should bd able to take part in all different types of
:00:45. > :00:49.sport, I get hot and sweaty here, people should not worry abott that.
:00:50. > :00:53.We are getting reaction at ` women's rugby club. It could save
:00:54. > :00:56.hundreds of lives. The country's first state`of`the`art
:00:57. > :00:58.lifeboat is launched off thd south coast.
:00:59. > :01:00.And, we're all going crazy for curling, especially at Engl`nd's
:01:01. > :01:10.only curling rink, in Tunbrhdge Wells.
:01:11. > :01:14.Good evening. A group of experts has strongly
:01:15. > :01:18.criticised the lack of Government action taken to prevent flooding.
:01:19. > :01:20.The group, led by the Landscape Institute, says the national
:01:21. > :01:25.approach to flood management is too focused on short`term results. It
:01:26. > :01:27.says the recent floods could have been prevented if the correct
:01:28. > :01:38.water`management techniques had been used in parts of southern England.
:01:39. > :01:43.It was officially the wettest winter on record, flooding in the
:01:44. > :01:49.south`east leaving in its w`ke untold misery and a repair bill in
:01:50. > :01:52.the multimillions. Now, a group of experts has risen to be Prile
:01:53. > :01:58.Minister, saying it could h`ve been avoided. They are urging hil to find
:01:59. > :02:02.and fund a long`term fix. Wd would like to see a long`term comlitment,
:02:03. > :02:06.both through this government and through successive governments, to
:02:07. > :02:14.deal with this comprehensivdly. There is no quick fix. The dxperts
:02:15. > :02:18.call for new measures for more dredging and more resilient homes,
:02:19. > :02:25.and a commitment to long`term plans to limit future flooding. Thm
:02:26. > :02:32.Chapman was one of the victhms, he urged the Prime Minister to listen.
:02:33. > :02:39.It is vital, beyond belief, it must be costing the insurance colpanies a
:02:40. > :02:44.fortune, the damage to the hd economy, it is a no`brainer as far
:02:45. > :02:50.as we can see. Down the road, this woman's home has flooded twhce since
:02:51. > :02:55.2000. Both events described to her as once in a lifetime. She says
:02:56. > :03:01.pressure for change must mahntain. The sun is shining today, wd will
:03:02. > :03:07.move towards summer, hopefully. We must not let the focus go of the
:03:08. > :03:10.issue. For many, the floods have been devastating, nobody more
:03:11. > :03:16.desperate for a solution. Hdalth is suffering, those who cannot move out
:03:17. > :03:23.or having to live in the dalp, and suffer the contamination. A
:03:24. > :03:28.long`term solution would be better. What are you believe done to try to
:03:29. > :03:34.secure yielding in the long`term? Local differences, or the extension
:03:35. > :03:38.of the barrier, but that cotld exacerbate the problem we h`ve. In
:03:39. > :03:44.the village, sandbags remain in place. What they want is more
:03:45. > :03:48.substantial, peace of mind `nd the chance of a flood free future.
:03:49. > :03:51.Well, the huge storms and powerful winds that have been batterhng our
:03:52. > :03:54.coast have caused several ydars worth of erosion and damage in just
:03:55. > :03:57.a few weeks, according to the National Trust. The organis`tion,
:03:58. > :04:00.which manages much of Britahn's most scenic coastline, said at Bhrling
:04:01. > :04:10.Gap on the Sussex coast, thd speed of erosion has been breatht`king.
:04:11. > :04:16.This stretch of coast has always been at the mercy of the eldments.
:04:17. > :04:21.The cottages here have becole a symbol of the retreating clhffs
:04:22. > :04:27.With only half an remaining, this was them a safe distance from the
:04:28. > :04:34.edge in 1912. But even for here this winter has been excepthonal.
:04:35. > :04:38.These clips are spectacular, beautiful, but they are also
:04:39. > :04:42.unpredictable. Although we can guess at how far they are going to roll
:04:43. > :04:48.back, we really don't know. The storms, the wet weather, thd wind,
:04:49. > :04:53.that has had an impact, so we have had dramatic falls in a short time.
:04:54. > :04:56.Part of the National trust's building has been lost. The speed of
:04:57. > :05:03.the erosion this year taking everybody by surprise. This is as
:05:04. > :05:06.close as we are allowed to go to the edge, you can see that the ddge is
:05:07. > :05:14.just over there. What is extraordinary, just two months ago,
:05:15. > :05:18.it was six metres further ott. At the nearby boat house, they have
:05:19. > :05:22.already had to take evasive action. Five years ago, they moved the house
:05:23. > :05:27.50 metres back from the cliff edge. Geoff Nash is trying his best to
:05:28. > :05:35.accept that erosion is part of life here. My sister lives in thd
:05:36. > :05:40.village, but when you live on the cliff edge, it is a job to `ccept
:05:41. > :05:48.it. You could build a village on the land we have lost. This was Hastings
:05:49. > :05:51.at the beginning of January. Around seven years of erosion has taken
:05:52. > :05:56.place in just two months, s`ys the National Trust. Even the shhngle has
:05:57. > :06:00.been swept away, the chalk left exposed. You do not have to look too
:06:01. > :06:08.far to see just how precarious the cliffs remain.
:06:09. > :06:10.The Sports and Equalities Mhnister Helen Grant has defended her
:06:11. > :06:13.comments about women partichpating in "feminine" sports. The Kdnt MP
:06:14. > :06:15.had told reporters women worried about feeling unfeminine should
:06:16. > :06:19.consider taking up ballet, cheerleading or roller`skathng.
:06:20. > :06:29.Today, she said those comments were taken out of context.
:06:30. > :06:37.Helen Grant insists her main objective is to get more wolen and
:06:38. > :06:42.girls into sport, the use of the words feminine and unfeminine is
:06:43. > :06:47.irrelevant. Getting more wolen in is not something I have a problem with
:06:48. > :06:52.here, they have 50 women in the team, and 25 girls in the jtnior
:06:53. > :06:57.team. They play in the premhership, which is a better league th`n that
:06:58. > :07:00.of the boys. All of the womdn I have spoken to say they feel femhnine
:07:01. > :07:05.playing rugby, and if you look closely, you will even see some
:07:06. > :07:09.painted nails. We need to get more women and girls
:07:10. > :07:14.playing sport, but for thosd who do not fancy this, how about something
:07:15. > :07:18.more feminine, like cheerle`ding or ballet? The suggestion from Helen
:07:19. > :07:22.Grant, who told the BBC, wolen needed to be given what thex want
:07:23. > :07:29.when it comes to sport, addhng, they can still not absolutely radiant.
:07:30. > :07:38.Radiant. It is not a word you would use for men. I have seen sole
:07:39. > :07:43.radiant performers, women and men. I see sport as a force for good. If
:07:44. > :07:47.you are sweaty, that is not the most important thing, but for sole women
:07:48. > :07:52.and girls, it matters, and we should not ignore it. The comments have
:07:53. > :07:59.caused some controversy. Thd use of the feminine is not relevant, it is
:08:00. > :08:05.about what people can achieve. We are trying to get away from a focus
:08:06. > :08:10.on women's appearances and to try and focus on women's achievdments.
:08:11. > :08:13.The issue of body image is rarely far from the headlines. Despite
:08:14. > :08:19.being Britain's most successful swimmer ever, Rebecca Adlington said
:08:20. > :08:24.she felt insecure about her body following comments on social media.
:08:25. > :08:29.Another medallist Macbeth toddle, is also the target of cyber bullies,
:08:30. > :08:37.who made comments about her looks, and the women's curling teal were
:08:38. > :08:41.described as housewives and broom pushers in 2002. Despite negativity
:08:42. > :08:45.at the top level, these womdn say body image is not always an issue.
:08:46. > :08:51.You see people with their h`ir down, and make`up on, but I would
:08:52. > :08:57.not care about that now. Yot think that people are judging you a bit. I
:08:58. > :09:01.try to enjoy the sport, rather than thinking what I look like. Ht is
:09:02. > :09:09.that approach the Minister hopes will prevail.
:09:10. > :09:15.He came to rugby late in yotr life, what made you choose rugby? I was
:09:16. > :09:19.down with my son, who was shx, I brought him down to do some
:09:20. > :09:22.training, some of the other mothers approached me and suggested I might
:09:23. > :09:28.like to try, I had always played sport at school, and it was the
:09:29. > :09:32.right time for me, I had sole time to take up a new sport, and it
:09:33. > :09:39.fitted in. Do you feel unfelinine when you play? Not at all, H am
:09:40. > :09:42.choosing to believe that Helen Grant's comments have been taken out
:09:43. > :09:48.of context, because I would hope that any sports Minister wotld come
:09:49. > :09:53.to understand that the definition of femininity is changing and
:09:54. > :09:56.evolving, and sportswomen are helping to achieve that. Wolen need
:09:57. > :10:04.to appreciate that they can take part in sport without being
:10:05. > :10:07.stereotyped. 1.8 million more men play sport a week and women, and it
:10:08. > :10:12.is that gap that the governlent is trying to shorten. They say anything
:10:13. > :10:15.they can do to do that has got to be a good thing.
:10:16. > :10:17.Well, many of you have alre`dy been sharing your thoughts on thhs story.
:10:18. > :10:21.Catherine Crowhurst commentdd on this story on Facebook, and said she
:10:22. > :10:29.believes Ms Grant's comments have been taken out of context. @nother
:10:30. > :10:31.person said they thought shd should be sacked, because she is the
:10:32. > :10:35.equalities minister. So, let us know what you think. Should women be
:10:36. > :10:39.offered more sports where they can still look absolutely radiant, as Ms
:10:40. > :10:42.Grant put it, or is it OK for them to take part in more aggressive
:10:43. > :10:44.activities? You can join thd debate on Facebook, tweet us or send us an

:11:55. > :12:04.out more compensation than other companies. Why? ?2.2 million last
:12:05. > :12:09.year, first Capital Connect paid out 700,000. Interestingly, southeastern
:12:10. > :12:15.told us that in the last fotr months, they have paid out ?1.5
:12:16. > :12:19.million, and have had 40,000 claims for compensation in the last four
:12:20. > :12:23.weeks alone. But these are the busiest companies on BBC's network,
:12:24. > :12:27.you would expect them to be paying out the most, but this report says
:12:28. > :12:31.it is not enough, they need to do more to show customers how to claim
:12:32. > :12:34.the compensation. That is something the passages I spoke to earlier
:12:35. > :12:39.agreed with. I have been in the same sittation, I
:12:40. > :12:44.have never claimed, I picked up the form, you take it home, you never
:12:45. > :12:51.claim. You expect a queue ddlays, I have never claim. If you go online
:12:52. > :12:56.and say, this train was latd, if it was easy, I would give it. There
:12:57. > :13:02.should be something up in the station, placards or somethhng. If
:13:03. > :13:06.you are dissatisfied, lodge a claim. The companies are doing everything
:13:07. > :13:11.they can, first Capital Connect are introducing an electronic sxstem in
:13:12. > :13:14.the summer. One thing that `nnoys passengers is compensation hn

:15:15. > :15:19.She can reach speeds of 25 knots, making her 50% faster than her

:18:59. > :19:03.but the group of residents who have taken the reins told me thex think

:21:01. > :21:03.Brighton welcome Wigan to the Amex. While in League One, Gillingham
:21:04. > :21:08.travel to Oldham, and Crawldy are also away, at Walsall.
:21:09. > :21:11.Now, although Great Britain won silver in the men's Olympic curling
:21:12. > :21:14.final this afternoon, the tdam was made entirely of Scotsmen. That s
:21:15. > :21:19.because of the 23 curling rhnks in the UK, 22 of them are in Scotland,
:21:20. > :21:22.and only one is in England. That rink can be found here in the South
:21:23. > :21:26.East, just outside Tunbridgd Wells. It says it's now seeing a dramatic
:21:27. > :21:30.increase in the number of pdople wanting to try out the sport since
:21:31. > :21:31.the start of the Sochi Games, and it's currently hosting the Dnglish
:21:32. > :21:47.Curling Association Championships. They will be 9`3 ahead. This signal
:21:48. > :21:53.the end of Team GB's hopes of gold in Sochi. Meanwhile, in Tunbridge
:21:54. > :21:57.Wells, the English can championship was under way. Teams battled it out
:21:58. > :22:04.for a chance to play for thdir country. Alongside youngsters who
:22:05. > :22:10.were getting a taste of the sport for the first time. Spurred on by
:22:11. > :22:17.the Olympic effect. It is practical, it helps your memory. It is a good
:22:18. > :22:24.game. It gets you in transit in the game, you are focused on th`t stone,
:22:25. > :22:29.and nothing in the world matters. Being here for an hour, I h`ve
:22:30. > :22:36.enjoyed the game, because it gets you energetic, it is actually easier
:22:37. > :22:42.than you think. That is not how the Scottish players in Team GB felt
:22:43. > :22:45.today. But if English players are going to break through to the top
:22:46. > :22:49.flight, their talents will be nurtured here. The rink is
:22:50. > :22:54.celebrating its 10th anniversary, don't by a Scotsman determined to
:22:55. > :22:59.curl in the Garden of England. You are lucky to find a couple of
:23:00. > :23:03.hundred people if you search in England, and most of them come here.
:23:04. > :23:10.In Scotland, you have 30,000 people playing. In Canada, over a lillion.
:23:11. > :23:16.No wonder their Olympic chalpions have mastered the subtleties of the
:23:17. > :23:21.game. Have you import the spin on the stone is an important p`rt of
:23:22. > :23:25.how you deliver it and rele`se it. Those skills are learned here, but
:23:26. > :23:30.the challenge is to turn English players into Olympians.
:23:31. > :23:33.Well, let's return to one of tonight's top stories. The Sports
:23:34. > :23:35.and Equalities Minister Heldn Grant has defended her comments about
:23:36. > :23:41.women participating in "femhnine" sports activities. The Kent MP had
:23:42. > :23:43.told reporters women worried about feeling unfeminine should look at
:23:44. > :23:50.taking up ballet, cheerleadhng or roller`skating. Well, we wanted to
:23:51. > :23:59.know what you thought, and we had quite a response. Chris on d`mail
:24:00. > :24:03.said, let's encourage any participation in any sport by
:24:04. > :24:08.females or males, especiallx with the nation's obesity problels. Lots
:24:09. > :24:11.of comments on Facebook, I do not mind aggressive sports, it hs the
:24:12. > :24:18.clothes I hate, it would be good to encourage female MPs to do sport.
:24:19. > :24:24.One person says, it is down to the individuals, why can't they be raked
:24:25. > :24:27.their own lives? Peter said, when Dodds and snooker became sports it
:24:28. > :24:33.opened the floodgates to anx old rubbish. He says it enabled the
:24:34. > :24:38.deluded to think they are sportsmen or sportswomen. Sarah says,
:24:39. > :24:45.cheerleading is not a sport, but she says, I honestly cannot see why
:24:46. > :24:53.Lots of sunshine in salt te`m, but heavy showers as well. You knew if
:24:54. > :24:58.you got caught in one of thdm, and they will continue as we go through
