The family of a Bexhill soldier who died in Afghanistan have bedn left | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
angry and upset after counchllors failed to name the new Bexhhll to | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
Hastings link road after hil, despite the fact it was the | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
Robert Wood, who was 28, was killed on Valentines Day in 201 . | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
Rother District Council invhted people to vote on a shortlist of 6 | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
names but opted for Combe V`lley Way, one of the least popul`r. | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
Precious moments spent with his son Noah just before Private Rob Wood's | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
life tragically ended, in a fire at Camp Bastion three years ago | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
His family thought naming the new Bexhill to Hastings Link Ro`d after | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
him would be the perfect trhbute ` but although Robert Wood Wax proved | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
the most popular choice in ` council consultation, it wasn't seldcted. | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
It's like dangling a carrot ` you give them the option, | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
but they're going to take it away from you anyway. | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
What is the point of freedol of speech if you get | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
the chance to say what you want but they're not going to do it? | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
Rother District Council told us they chose Combe Valley Way becatse the | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
road crosses the Combe Valldy and although residents? views wdre taken | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
into account, they also had to consider the need for names to be | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
easily recognised by the emergency services. In Bexhill | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
there was disappointment thd council hadn't gone with the majority. | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
I think it would?ve been quite touching, wouldn?t it? | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
But I?m not sure anyone?s got any control over what the counchl say. | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
I think the council should listen to the local people, don?t xou? | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
I can see the advantage of it being named after Rob Wood, | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
but it?s not the only road that could be named after him. | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
Private Wood's family are determined not to give up. | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
We?ve decided we?d like to fight on and still get it named | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
after Rob, which we think is the right thing to do. | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
Meanwhile Rother District Council say that names that weren't selected | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
may be considered for new developments around | :02:02. | :02:03. | |
A charity which was affectdd by the Eastbourne Pier fire has st`rted | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
Military Heroes Trust ` which raises funds for injured soldiers `nd | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
bereaved military families ` has found a temporary home in the town. | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
A Kent man with a terminal illness that has left him | :02:22. | :02:23. | |
virtually unable to move has been backed by the band Coldplay | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
as he tries to raise ?25,000 for the Motor Neurone Disease Assochation. | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
Jody Duff from Chatham held his latest charity event today, | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
This next song we're going to dedicate to a young man called Jody. | :02:36. | :02:46. | |
This is the lead singer of Coldplay dedicating the last song | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
of the night, Fix You, to a man from Chatham who h`s | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
He had met the band the previous evening. | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
A few days later, the story got even better. | :02:57. | :02:58. | |
I got a phone call from his PA to say that they were so touchdd | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
by the story and my determination that they wanted to donate ?10, 00. | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
The money is being put with whatever is raised from today's charhty walk | :03:10. | :03:17. | |
to help people in mid`Kent who are living with Motor Neurone Dhsease. | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
We?ve got over ?21,000 now on the page so we've raised over | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
what we had to give with wh`t was donated by Chris Martin. | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
Jody?s Motor Neurone Diseasd set in nine years ago. | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
It's a rare condition where parts of the nervous system become d`maged. | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
But Jody is keen to raise its profile in any way he c`n. | :03:35. | :03:44. | |
Onto football now and the new season kicked off today | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
In the Championship Charlton Athletic drew one`all away | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
at Brentford while Brighton and Hove Albion lost one`nil | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
And in League One, Crawley Town won one`nil aw`y | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
at Barnsley and Gillingham lost four`two also away at MK Dons. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
the moment, as we watch the storm formerly known as Bertha approaching | :04:05. | :04:12. | |
our shores. It means a Met Office weather warning for tomorrow right | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
across the region for the r`in. It's a triple threat storm as thhs area | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
of low pressure comes in, spueezing these isobars, suggesting that the | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
wind will also pick up. We `re also having some high tides so wd are | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
looking at coastal waves too. Tomorrow morning, we?ve got the rain | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
already. It is spinning off towards the north`east as we go through the | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
day. It will start to dry ott by the afternoon with some sunshind coming | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
through. Before that, up to an inch of rain is possible. 21 to 22 | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
Celsius behind that rain. The wind will pick up as we go through | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
tomorrow evening. Combined with some high tides, we're looking at large | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
Good evening. Conditions in the next 24 hours may not match those of the | :04:54. | :05:20. | |
big storms of autumn and winter but they will make for an unpleasant | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
summer staples of already some unpleasant conditions here, wet and | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
very windy, but it is this low tide on to what once was hurricane | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
Bertha, which has now set its track for the UK as we go through Sunday. | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
Arriving to some southern and western areas as we start the day, | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
but let's concentrate on the southern half of the country for | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
tomorrow, this is where the wettest and windiest conditions will be to | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
begin with. Rain spreading across some parts, some of which will be | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
heavy. Strong winds across the South coast and then another surge which | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
could cause some damage pushing in from the west later. The most | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
persistent rain will be in Wales and the Midlands, many will turn dry and | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
brighter through the afternoon. For the middle half of the country, just | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
one or two showers to start off but signs we could see some persistent | :06:06. | :06:07. | |
heavy rain to the east of Northern Ireland and more especially northern | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
England, | :06:11. | :06:12. |
