:01:40. > :01:43.camped at the port should be put on a ferry and sent to Britain.

:01:44. > :01:45.Let's cross live to Calais and speak to our

:01:46. > :01:48.Ellie, there've been awful scenes of violence over

:01:49. > :01:59.the last few nights, what are the authorities there doing?

:02:00. > :02:06.There was a much bigger police presence today with an extra 40

:02:07. > :02:11.officers. This is were the main problem is, the main feeding station

:02:12. > :02:16.for the migrants in the town, and the clashes occurred between the

:02:17. > :02:20.Sudanese territory in communities and spread close to the port. The

:02:21. > :02:23.migrants we spoke to said the situation remains tense.

:02:24. > :02:26.The daily desperate scramble onto a lorry travelling to Dover.

:02:27. > :02:28.These exclusive pictures were taken by a British holiday`maker

:02:29. > :02:32.The constant risks migrants are willing to take, brought to light by

:02:33. > :02:39.But there are dangers in just living here.

:02:40. > :02:41.These are trained migrants did not want their faces shown, but were

:02:42. > :03:02.And we saw also some of the injuries.

:03:03. > :03:24.Migrants described it as a turf war where different nationalities are

:03:25. > :03:27.trying to gain control of areas like this, a parking lot for lorries

:03:28. > :03:34.Today, the deputy mayor of Calais told us he had his own ideas about

:03:35. > :03:40.The border would be moved back to Dover, we would not have

:03:41. > :03:46.In order to treat the problem in Calais would be to pay the ticket

:03:47. > :04:01.If you bought 1,000 tickets at a time, it would cost peanuts,

:04:02. > :04:04.and the ferries would be happy to have customers on board,

:04:05. > :04:11.The deputy mayor is completely mistaken.

:04:12. > :04:15.If they were to pay for 1,000 immigrants to come to

:04:16. > :04:19.Britain, then what that would do is attract tens, probably hundreds

:04:20. > :04:24.of thousands more immigrants hoping to have the same opportunities.

:04:25. > :04:28.Authorities estimate there are at least 1,200 migrants.

:04:29. > :04:31.The charities says more are arriving and they all have one destination

:04:32. > :04:47.No issues here tonight, people have got their food and left, but there

:04:48. > :04:49.have been clashes over the last two night, so the police and the

:04:50. > :04:55.migrants are vigilant. The desperate lengths that migrants

:04:56. > :04:58.in Calais are prepared to go to were highlighted in a BBC South East

:04:59. > :05:00.investigation in April that showed men trying to

:05:01. > :05:03.stowaway on axels of lorrieies. There were then clashes in

:05:04. > :05:06.French Port Police mounted a raid in Migrants were then given eviction

:05:07. > :05:13.notices and told to clear the camps by this week, but that

:05:14. > :05:18.deadline's now been extended. The sustained rioting comes

:05:19. > :05:21.as the Mayor of Calais has once again called for border controls to

:05:22. > :05:26.be moved back to the UK. We live here now

:05:27. > :05:28.and we have lived here for some years, but, you know, it

:05:29. > :05:31.did cause an awful lot of problems It would have to be very,

:05:32. > :05:35.very controlled Europe is bigger than England,

:05:36. > :05:40.isn't it? And all of the people that are over

:05:41. > :05:44.there now have to come through Europe to arrive in England,

:05:45. > :05:47.so surely there is more helped over there to start with, where

:05:48. > :05:49.the problem is more localised? What do you think

:05:50. > :05:51.the European view is? Come off your island.

:05:52. > :05:53.SHE LAUGHS Those people speaking today in

:05:54. > :06:05.Dover. We're joined now by the MP for

:06:06. > :06:07.Dover Charlie Elphicke. Mr Elphicke the Mayor

:06:08. > :06:10.of Calais says your government needs to find an urgent solution to this

:06:11. > :06:19.situation, what is it? The mayor saying that the border

:06:20. > :06:28.needs to be pushed back, what is your reaction? This is deeply

:06:29. > :06:31.unhelpful. The countries need to coordinate together to keep the

:06:32. > :06:35.borders secure, it is better when both countries work together rather

:06:36. > :06:41.than Calais saying, this is a big problem, dump it on Dover, it is not

:06:42. > :06:44.responsible. But they are not cooperating. I know that you say you

:06:45. > :06:52.are working with the French authorities, but it appears that

:06:53. > :06:54.that cooperation is breaking down. There are understandable concerns in

:06:55. > :06:59.Calais about the situation that they have, but you have to remember that

:07:00. > :07:03.this government has dealt with the issues of welfare tourism that

:07:04. > :07:06.attract people to this country, this government has tightened the

:07:07. > :07:11.Borders, which is why we see such a problem in Calais. We need to see

:07:12. > :07:18.some real action by the French government in Paris. You have asked

:07:19. > :07:21.the Home Office and able to consider supporting a joint initiative by

:07:22. > :07:28.Dover and Calais for the French police to repatriate these people,

:07:29. > :07:31.where are you with that? I have raised it with the Home Secretary

:07:32. > :07:35.and raised the case that the UK and the French government needs to go

:07:36. > :07:38.operating together to find a lasting settlement to this problem. It

:07:39. > :07:43.should not be a problem for Calais, it should not be a problem for

:07:44. > :07:54.Dover, we need to deal with the traffickers that encourage people to

:07:55. > :07:57.come to Calais to break into Britain. Thank you.

:07:58. > :08:00.In a moment, lights Out ` how the south east responded to

:08:01. > :08:03.the Royal British Legion's call for people to mark the 100th anniversary

:08:04. > :08:07.A 20,000 tonne mountain of waste, that towers over local homes,

:08:08. > :08:09.is due to be cleared by the environment agency.

:08:10. > :08:11.Waste4Fuel stores rubbish from several councils across Kent

:08:12. > :08:16.The agency is beginning preparation work today and plans to clear the

:08:17. > :08:20.Well let's cross to our reporter Rebecca Williams.

:08:21. > :08:35.Rebecca how's the news been greeted by residents?

:08:36. > :08:42.To give you some idea, this is a 20,000 tonne pile of waste products,

:08:43. > :08:46.the residents have been living with this towering over them for several

:08:47. > :08:50.years, and some have said they cannot open their windows because of

:08:51. > :08:53.the smell, others have said it has made them sick, and one person I

:08:54. > :09:00.spoke to earlier said that he is glad that something is finally being

:09:01. > :09:04.done. How do I feel about it going? I will speak to you in six months

:09:05. > :09:09.time when it has gone! I am very happy. It will put our life back in

:09:10. > :09:16.proportion. At the moment, it is terrible. Initially, the idea was to

:09:17. > :09:21.turn the waste into renewable energy, that never happened. The

:09:22. > :09:26.people that own this site have said they need a cash injection to remove

:09:27. > :09:29.it. Today, the infirm at agency has taken action and they have entered

:09:30. > :09:30.this site and they have said that by Friday, levels here should be AXA

:09:31. > :09:54.double. `` acceptable. Prosecutors are considering bringing

:09:55. > :09:56.criminal charges against a female firearms officer who won

:09:57. > :09:59.a racial and sexual discrimination PC Carol Howard,

:10:00. > :10:02.who is currently suspended from her role in Scotland Yard,

:10:03. > :10:05.is facing a range of accusations in They have passed a file to the CPS

:10:06. > :10:09.linked to allegations of harassment, making threats to damage property,

:10:10. > :10:11.perverting the course of justice, witness intimidation and possession

:10:12. > :10:14.of an indecent image of a child. A former army medic

:10:15. > :10:17.and business owner from Rye has spoken of her relief, after finding

:10:18. > :10:20.out her stock survived the fire that Sammy Morgan creates handmade,

:10:21. > :10:24.uniformed teddy bears to raise money Her stock and store, which has only

:10:25. > :10:28.been there for three weeks is safe, but she said she feared for other

:10:29. > :10:31.traders the fire had affected. It is just heart destroying,

:10:32. > :10:33.it is horrible. We're having to walk

:10:34. > :10:35.down a gangplank that they have built over

:10:36. > :10:37.the floor that has disappeared, Medals awarded to

:10:38. > :10:49.an RAF pilot who lost his life in World War II have been stolen in a

:10:50. > :10:53.break`in at his son's home in Kent. The four medals were awarded to

:10:54. > :10:55.Warrant Officer Richard Arding, They were stolen from the house

:10:56. > :10:59.in Folkestone last month. They also included an Atlantic Star,

:11:00. > :11:02.given to those who took part in operations at sea.

:11:03. > :11:03.Kent Police, the public to find the medals, said

:11:04. > :11:08.cash, bank cards and a sapphire ring were also stolen in the burglary.

:11:09. > :11:22.Simon Jones reports. He died defending his country, but

:11:23. > :11:29.now his family?s most precious memories of him are gone. Disbelief,

:11:30. > :11:38.shock, anger, everything, upset, lots of tears. Yes. Really quite

:11:39. > :11:44.emotional. One of the medals was an Atlantic Starr like this one. His

:11:45. > :11:48.sacrifice also mentioned in this letter to his widow from Buckingham

:11:49. > :11:52.Palace. Those medals in particular are irreplaceable and will never be

:11:53. > :11:59.actually given, issued to him again. So, people do not think when they do

:12:00. > :12:04.something as nasty as this. How it does affect people! Just yesterday,

:12:05. > :12:09.people in Folkestone came together to mark the centenary of the

:12:10. > :12:15.outbreak of World War I. Now they are being asked to help the family

:12:16. > :12:21.of World War II hero. Kent Police have arrested a 26`year`old man from

:12:22. > :12:26.Folkestone on suspicion of theft. He has been bailed until October while

:12:27. > :12:32.enquiries continue. Officers are keen to trace what exactly has

:12:33. > :12:35.happened the medals. We are appealing to anybody that might have

:12:36. > :12:38.seen these medals, any one offered them the sale and particularly, I

:12:39. > :12:43.would ask antique dealers and second outlets to be vigilant if anybody

:12:44. > :12:46.was to come with something like this for sale. At a time the nation

:12:47. > :12:49.remembers, one family says it cannot remembers, one family says it cannot

:12:50. > :13:01.do that properly until the properties returned. 50 people have

:13:02. > :13:09.been injured, some of them seriously, at riots in Calais with

:13:10. > :13:12.migrants trying to get into the country. The deputy mayor of Calais

:13:13. > :13:17.has offered to pay the passage for the migrants to get to Kent. Also

:13:56. > :13:58.taken her first steps in nine years following a long battle with

:13:59. > :14:00.Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, or Jessica Taylor was just 14

:14:01. > :14:04.when she contracted the deadly virus In her case,

:14:05. > :14:10.she spent almost a decade in bed, but has made a recent breakthrough

:14:11. > :14:30.following a stay at The Burrswood This is the moment after

:14:31. > :14:35.hydrotherapy when Jessica Taylor was finally able to stand upright again,

:14:36. > :14:40.having been confined to bed for nine years. It was a dream come true, and

:14:41. > :14:46.something I have worked so, so hard for. Literally, nine years. The

:14:47. > :14:51.physiology of being immersed in the pool has effects on the body, so we

:14:52. > :14:56.had to be careful, but when she was upright, she could take if he steps

:14:57. > :15:02.with one of my colleagues in the water, so very exciting. `` take a

:15:03. > :15:08.few steps. A virus developed into chronic symptoms as a child, which

:15:09. > :15:13.for some, can be chronically debilitating. I was in hospital for

:15:14. > :15:22.four years, completely bedridden, and very, very ill with a. I was

:15:23. > :15:26.unable to move at all. She would come into the room bouncing,

:15:27. > :15:32.singing, laughing dancing, getting us all moving. When she was first in

:15:33. > :15:37.hospital, she was just flat, almost comatose. She could not recognise

:15:38. > :15:42.who we were. Fro long time, the existence of the illness was widely

:15:43. > :15:49.dismissed, labelled as yuppie flu, but that decision has largely been

:15:50. > :15:54.reversed. Now, a Rochester, she is learning to walk again,

:15:55. > :16:02.step`by`step. To have any kind of health back now, it makes me feel

:16:03. > :16:08.like I can get some held back, I can get through this, and I will get

:16:09. > :16:09.through this. She is also running a charity to help others with the

:16:24. > :16:26.Supermarket Sweep, It's the first time in six years

:16:27. > :16:31.the artist has exhibited in the UK. Paddy O'Connell joins us

:16:32. > :16:45.from Brighton. It opened on Friday, he is hoping to

:16:46. > :16:52.stir things up, he has exhibited in Los Angeles, New York, Sydney, now

:16:53. > :16:54.he is here in Brighton. He wants us to take a different look at why we

:16:55. > :17:00.make decisions when we go shopping. Pop art for popular food bought

:17:01. > :17:02.on the shop shelves. It is a different kind

:17:03. > :17:05.of Supermarket Sweep, how do the I spent hours walking

:17:06. > :17:10.around supermarkets, revelling in the colours

:17:11. > :17:14.and advertising slogans that they are projecting at me but at some

:17:15. > :17:19.point, you feel a little bit empty. This particular piece, for example,

:17:20. > :17:22.the look on Frankenstein's face is generally

:17:23. > :17:29.how I feel after eating the fries. Feel guilty with fast food?

:17:30. > :17:31.It's not always a joke. Scavenger art, they call it, from discarded

:17:32. > :17:36.packaging. Board games get the treatment also. Is capitalism all

:17:37. > :17:39.it's cracked up to be? Can a word game make

:17:40. > :17:43.you think communication? Scrabble is a game where you

:17:44. > :17:49.have got to choose words. And when you're dealing with

:17:50. > :17:52.relationships, we have got to pick just the right

:17:53. > :17:55.words that will fit together. Here is

:17:56. > :17:57.the gallery owner advertising Is this not a critique

:17:58. > :18:03.of selling for sale itself? We are here selling the work

:18:04. > :18:07.and it is a show We have sold 80% of

:18:08. > :18:14.the show already and we only opened Friday night.

:18:15. > :18:16.It is looking good. We are always

:18:17. > :18:18.seeing advertising and always consuming, but this show turns it

:18:19. > :18:22.around. Does it feel like revenge? In a way, yes, definitely, trying to

:18:23. > :18:26.take back some of the ground from the advertisers that are shoving it

:18:27. > :18:31.down our throats all the time. So, from cereal to soup,

:18:32. > :18:35.this show wants us to think why we put in the trolley the things we do

:18:36. > :18:52.in the supermarket. When you think about the soup that I

:18:53. > :18:56.showed there, one of the most famous pop artists of the maul, and you

:18:57. > :19:02.wore all, he did those soup cans in different colours, there you have

:19:03. > :19:07.it, a different gallery, 80% sold, so what you put on the shelf, you

:19:08. > :19:11.can put on the wall! Good luck to him, I enjoyed looking at it. Thank

:19:12. > :19:15.you. After hugely successful runs

:19:21. > :19:23.audiences since it first appeared in London in 2011, has been seen

:19:24. > :19:26.by over a million people worldwide and as Peter Whittlesea reports,

:20:00. > :20:09.that nice? 's Shaun Williamson has joined the cast alongside Gavin

:20:10. > :20:14.spokes. He plays a gangster. Not a good one! Butty is one! One of his

:20:15. > :20:23.bosses is a gangster from London that comes down to Brighton. This is

:20:24. > :20:28.his twin sister in disguise. He turns up expecting to marry my

:20:29. > :20:32.daughter and I owe him the equivalent of about 100 grand, so I

:20:33. > :20:39.spent the time trying to get 100 grams to get my daughter married

:20:40. > :20:44.off. That is just one subplot! I would not mention his name around

:20:45. > :20:51.here, Ross made Barry leave Eastenders, they give him ?1 million

:20:52. > :20:57.contract, we ask ITV for ?1 million are nothing, they chose nothing! One

:20:58. > :21:06.Man, Two Guvnors is miles away from Shaun Williamson?s usual work. It

:21:07. > :21:09.started at the National Theatre. I started Brighton with one boss and

:21:10. > :21:16.five minutes later I have another boss, and the players about me

:21:17. > :21:23.keeping those two apart, and there is love interest, there is money,

:21:24. > :21:28.double identity, yes, you could write a novel on the plot! The plot

:21:29. > :21:32.may be fiendishly complicated to explain, but critics and audiences

:21:33. > :21:40.have loved the mix of slapstick and satire.

:21:41. > :21:44.It is absolutely brilliant. Lights were turned out across the

:21:45. > :21:47.South East last night as it joined in with the rest of the country to

:21:48. > :21:50.commemorate 100 years since Following Prince Harry's visit to

:21:51. > :21:53.Folkestone yesterday, where he dedicated the town's new memorial

:21:54. > :21:56.arch and laid a wreath, the town was one of many to pay its

:21:57. > :22:00.respects at 10 o'clock for an hour. Here's how the event was marked

:22:01. > :22:11.in the South East. People are gathering as they have

:22:12. > :22:17.over the country and across Europe to keep a vigil leading up to the

:22:18. > :22:19.time at 11pm when this country and across Europe to keep a vigil

:22:20. > :22:25.leading up to the time at 11pm when this country found itself at war. We

:22:26. > :22:29.are marking the moment from piece to war 100 years ago, remembering what

:22:30. > :22:34.the British Foreign Secretary said in 1914, the lamps are going out all

:22:35. > :23:42.over Europe, will not see them lit again in our lifetime.

:23:43. > :23:49.Some beautiful images. Thank you for everything that you sent in to us.

:23:50. > :23:51.If you have been waiting for the rain, the Reds a lot of it on the

:23:52. > :24:10.way, Georgina! `` there is a lot. I want to take you back to a picture

:24:11. > :24:19.that was sent into us, some have said it looks like the hand of God,

:24:20. > :24:22.but it is a cloud, it's got a lot of people talking, and I think it will

:24:23. > :24:28.get people talking for the rest of the week. Today, a pleasant summers
