:02:35. > :02:43.in February 2013. His company was being liquidated.
:02:44. > :02:47.In a published court documents, the judge said he didn't have faith

:02:53. > :02:57.evidence of the court must be accurate, true and reliable but Mr
:02:58. > :03:01.Joshi's evidence demonstratively fails the test and he said in
:03:02. > :03:04.absence of a credible explanation, I'm driven to the conclusion that
:03:05. > :03:08.his original evidence was untrue and wholly improper attempts to
:03:09. > :03:11.mislead the court. From time to time,
:03:12. > :03:14.a judge will come to the conclusion that somebody appearing
:03:15. > :03:20.before him is less than truthful and when appropriate, they will say so.
:03:21. > :03:25.That happened in this case. What is unusual is Mr Joshi
:03:26. > :03:28.brought this on himself. Yes he was trying to rescue
:03:29. > :03:32.his company from being wound up but he didn't need to go to court
:03:33. > :03:36.and didn't need to get this damning comment by the deputy judge
:03:37. > :03:49.against him in a public judgement. Mr Joshi was working
:03:50. > :03:57.on the deal with an associate. They insist Mr Joshi and his
:03:58. > :04:00.involvement didn't scupper a big deal. As far as the dealers
:04:01. > :04:08.concerned, they are simply the facilitators of the introduction to
:04:09. > :04:16.the process. If they are involved in the bid, it will be of public
:04:17. > :04:18.interest. I can't comment on that. I am not aware of either
:04:19. > :04:22.of these people's circumstances. All I can say is as far as Riveroak
:04:23. > :04:26.is concerned, it is their bid and the bid was made in the name
:04:27. > :04:34.of their chief executive. It was made very clear.
:04:35. > :04:43.In the House of Commons, the local MP said Riveroak had made another
:04:44. > :04:45.offer but this afternoon that offer was rejected. The future for the
:04:46. > :04:48.airport is looking increasingly bleak.
:04:49. > :04:50.It was made very clear. Well, Mark Norman is at

:05:21. > :05:24.been out here all day today. He talked about that enhanced bid by
:05:25. > :05:31.Riveroak but that bid has been rejected. Sir Roger Gale was left
:05:32. > :05:35.appealing to the Prime Minister. Ultimately the future of Manston
:05:36. > :05:41.Airport remains the responsibility of the airport owner but it is
:05:42. > :05:47.important the government is engaged and the Transport Secretary will be
:05:48. > :05:51.speaking about this issue and contacting Riveroak, the potential
:05:52. > :05:54.purchasers. They have to make a commercial decision and the
:05:55. > :05:59.government will do everything it can to help. It is beginning to look
:06:00. > :06:03.bleak. The protesters think there is still hope while the airport is
:06:04. > :06:10.still open. It remains open until five o'clock but they would like
:06:11. > :06:14.Riveroak and the owners to thrash it out in the deal.

:06:35. > :06:43.didn't want to be associated with racist comments.
:06:44. > :06:53.She is not a household name but she has become front`page news. She was
:06:54. > :06:58.the leader of UKIP's youth ring but has quit the party after labelling
:06:59. > :07:05.it racist. It seems a dramatic change of heart. Last week she
:07:06. > :07:09.defended the immigration policy. In terms of the immigration policy, the
:07:10. > :07:16.effects that it would incur, it would mean there were more equal
:07:17. > :07:18.opportunities for people across the whole world. In a newspaper article
:07:19. > :07:43.she has said: Speaking to BBC south`east, her
:07:44. > :07:53.father said she felt she had no choice but to resign. There has been
:07:54. > :07:57.a lot of gaffes by UKIP members and it is getting to the stage where she
:07:58. > :08:06.thinks they should be thinking about what they are saying. I think the
:08:07. > :08:08.racism is starting to show a little bit and she doesn't want to be
:08:09. > :08:18.associated with those comments any more. I can see one party offering
:08:19. > :08:24.real change. Speaking here, she had previously been described as a
:08:25. > :08:31.rising star. He says she is surprised by her decision. Bravely
:08:32. > :08:37.she appeared on television defending the immigration policy. I am
:08:38. > :08:42.surprised. Nigel Farage has acknowledged that a handful of UKIP
:08:43. > :08:45.candidates have said stupid or offensive things but he says they
:08:46. > :08:53.never have and they never will represent the views of the party.
:08:54. > :08:56.Louise, how damaging is this, with just over a week to go before
:08:57. > :09:12.Nigel Farage has been out campaigning and he has had to defend
:09:13. > :09:16.his party. He hoped to draw a line under that because he held an event
:09:17. > :09:25.in London surrounding himself by ethnic minority candidates saying
:09:26. > :09:30.UKIP was a party of inclusivity. It is not good news but as he says, a
:09:31. > :09:35.week ago she defended the party and can't understand her change of
:09:36. > :09:43.heart. He will be hoping it won't have too much impact at the polls.

:10:04. > :10:31.at HMP Bronzefield in Ashford. She was asked to look after him and
:10:32. > :10:35.a few months later she was asked to hand the dog back. She didn't want
:10:36. > :10:43.to because she thought the dog wouldn't be elected `` looked after.
:10:44. > :10:49.She was sent to prison, one that houses many criminals. I was in
:10:50. > :11:01.prison with short list is `` shoplifters, muggers, drug dealers,
:11:02. > :11:12.murderers. I had one woman run of her list of crimes to me. They were
:11:13. > :11:17.quite angry. Linda was jailed for contempt of court, not taking the
:11:18. > :11:25.dog. It is effectively surveying a court order and being disrespectful
:11:26. > :11:30.to the report. It carries up to two years imprisonment and that sanction
:11:31. > :11:38.is necessary because without the power to imprison them, the court
:11:39. > :11:42.could be routinely ignored. Linda says the dog's welfare was her
:11:43. > :11:45.priority and say the police were embarrassed to pursue the case
:11:46. > :11:52.against her but understands why she felt the wrong side of the legal
:11:53. > :11:56.system. Taping `` keeping the dog save seemed to override everything.
:11:57. > :12:02.I was very scared. I don't regret it. Now she has published a book

:13:11. > :13:12.of a bride's mother's. At the moment, only the father
:13:13. > :13:15.of the bridge is formally included. The Green MP Caroline Lucas,

:13:26. > :13:36.between the father of the bride It is the ultimate family affair but
:13:37. > :13:41.is it `` but it is the father who walks the breakdown the aisle. He
:13:42. > :13:45.makes an embarrassing speech about her and it is his name and
:13:46. > :13:52.occupation that goes on the marriage certificate. For Kim, choosing the
:13:53. > :13:58.dress for her big day with her mother, that doesn't seem fair. Both
:13:59. > :14:03.parents bring you into the world, both parents are a huge part of your
:14:04. > :14:09.life and my father did die when I was 16. My mum has had to raise us
:14:10. > :14:13.as a single parent and she has been there every step of the way and it
:14:14. > :14:18.is right that her name should be included on the marriage
:14:19. > :14:22.certificate. Nowadays, when the whole family is setup, it is so
:14:23. > :14:29.diverse and this ought to been thought about and addressed. It
:14:30. > :14:35.seems so sad that I can't have my name on it. It has been this way
:14:36. > :14:39.since the 19th century but now an online petition to bring marriage
:14:40. > :14:45.certificates into the 21st has gathered many names. It is backed by
:14:46. > :14:48.Caroline Lucas. It is important that it is not seen as a transaction
:14:49. > :14:53.between the bride's father and the husband but actually something that
:14:54. > :14:57.is completely embraced by everybody involved and therefore the mother is
:14:58. > :15:04.just as important here as the father. It is a sentiment widely
:15:05. > :15:10.shared. They are both equal and should be on there. They should have
:15:11. > :15:15.both names on there. Some say a change would make history more
:15:16. > :15:19.accessible. If people are wanting to trace their family tree, they need
:15:20. > :15:25.to know who the mother was as well as the father. They only really have
:15:26. > :15:30.the father's name. Certificates for civil partnerships contain the
:15:31. > :15:46.signatures of all parents. They want equality for all. They say to
:15:47. > :15:50.replace marriage certificates across the country would be complex and
:15:51. > :15:54.costly but said it would consider it. What is interesting is the
:15:55. > :15:59.number of married people who didn't realise this was the case. One
:16:00. > :16:05.register or `` registrar said it was different because this comes with
