:00:00. > :00:07.Welcome to South East Today, I'm Rob Smith.

:00:08. > :00:11.The online adverts targeting vulnerable people by offering free

:00:12. > :00:26.I was under quite a bit of pressure to keep him happy. Because if they

:00:27. > :00:27.are not happy with you, then anything could happen.

:00:28. > :00:31.Rail trespass incidents reach record levels across Kent and Sussex.

:00:32. > :00:35.Fighting a losing battle against plastic waste -

:00:36. > :00:38.the campaigners struggling to keep our beaches clean.

:00:39. > :00:43.We're live at Cuckmere Haven with the details.

:00:44. > :00:45.And a flying visit from the Flying Scotsman,

:00:46. > :00:56.as the world famous locomotive arrives in Sussex for the week.

:00:57. > :01:07.I was excited, because I used to go to school on steam trains.

:01:08. > :01:11.Vulnerable young people in Kent and Sussex are being targeted by men

:01:12. > :01:12.offering free accommodation in exchange for sex,

:01:13. > :01:17.an exclusive BBC South East investigation can reveal.

:01:18. > :01:20.Landlords are posting adverts online, which do not break the law,

:01:21. > :01:23.using classified advertising websites such as Craigslist.

:01:24. > :01:26.But tonight, one MP is calling for a change in the law

:01:27. > :01:30.to stop young people being exploited and traumatised.

:01:31. > :01:32.Our reporter Lauren Moss has spoken to a student in Brighton

:01:33. > :01:36.who was fleeing an abusive home life, and says she felt she had no

:01:37. > :01:43.choice but to accept an offer of sex for rent.

:01:44. > :01:48.I had no idea what I was getting into.

:01:49. > :01:58.He took me into to his living room, got the drinks, and then after

:01:59. > :02:00.that, it was straight upstairs and go for it.

:02:01. > :02:03.Vulnerable and desperate for a roof over her head, Gemma answered

:02:04. > :02:10.He would do what he wanted to do, forcefully.

:02:11. > :02:15.And I just thought, yeah, went along with it.

:02:16. > :02:17.After the third time, I started feeling

:02:18. > :02:24.These are some of the offers we found openly placed on

:02:25. > :02:29.Free accommodation, but with strings attached.

:02:30. > :02:32.I was thinking once a week, something like that, but I'm

:02:33. > :02:35.happy as long as there is sex involved.

:02:36. > :02:38.I spoke with six men posting adverts in the south-east.

:02:39. > :02:41.All wanted photos of me before they would talk on the phone.

:02:42. > :02:45.All were clear how the arrangement would work.

:02:46. > :02:49.These are real conversations, voiced by actors.

:02:50. > :02:54.Well, you know, you agree something like, a couple times a week?

:02:55. > :02:59.But as far as the apartment is concerned, it's

:03:00. > :03:01.like completely as if we are flatmates.

:03:02. > :03:06.There's a girl staying here now who has done the same.

:03:07. > :03:08.Two or three times a week, basically.

:03:09. > :03:13.But some say those agreeing to these deals

:03:14. > :03:20.could be getting into a very dangerous situation.

:03:21. > :03:22.Where people are in really desperate, vulnerable

:03:23. > :03:25.situations in terms of housing and financial need, it could lead to

:03:26. > :03:27.someone feeling trapped and being a prisoner somewhere

:03:28. > :03:34.In just one day, I counted well over 100 adverts on

:03:35. > :03:36.Craigslist offering free accommodation in exchange for some

:03:37. > :03:40.In Maidstone, one man was asking for a

:03:41. > :03:42.woman to move in with them and pretend to be his girlfriend.

:03:43. > :03:46.Another, in Rochester, a double room in exchange

:03:47. > :03:52.In Brighton, one advert was specifically aimed at young men.

:03:53. > :03:56.And, disturbingly, this is perfectly legal.

:03:57. > :04:00.I think these adverts go as close to the edge of the law

:04:01. > :04:02.as they possibly can without breaking the law.

:04:03. > :04:04.They would argue that they have chosen,

:04:05. > :04:06.voluntarily, to enter that situation.

:04:07. > :04:13.The trouble is, when you have a vulnerable person, that can

:04:14. > :04:22.then becomes exploited, the concept of choice soon disappears.

:04:23. > :04:27.One third of young homeless people in the south-east say they have

:04:28. > :04:32.spent the night with a stranger just to get off the streets. It really is

:04:33. > :04:35.very troubling to hear that people are preying on these vulnerable

:04:36. > :04:42.young people. You think there should be able project to stop this from

:04:43. > :04:45.happening? We should start with the advertisers to say, could they take

:04:46. > :04:51.things like this down? If they are willing to do this then maybe MPs

:04:52. > :04:56.will want to look into this in the House of Commons. I contacted

:04:57. > :05:01.craigslist for comment, but they didn't get back to me. More adverts

:05:02. > :05:05.are appearing every day. I was under quite a bit of pressure to keep them

:05:06. > :05:09.happy. Because if they are not happy, then anything could happen.

:05:10. > :05:13.They could basically just come over to you and say, I want sex now, and

:05:14. > :05:17.you really don't have much of a choice, because you know it is their

:05:18. > :05:22.home and you want to just keep that place. With an increasing number of

:05:23. > :05:25.young, homeless people, it is feared that these adverts will only

:05:26. > :05:29.continue to exploit those most in need.

:05:30. > :05:37.So why is it that these adverts do not break the law?

:05:38. > :05:39.Well, offering accommodation in exchange for sex isn't illegal,

:05:40. > :05:42.because it's deemed to be an agreement between two consenting

:05:43. > :05:44.adults, and not classed as prostitution or slavery,

:05:45. > :05:46.as long as the tenant has made the choice to stay there,

:05:47. > :05:49.and is free to leave whenever they want.

:05:50. > :05:55.But tonight, charities are calling for new legislation to ban these

:05:56. > :05:58.adverts for good and they've won the backing of one South East MP.

:05:59. > :06:01.I'm grateful to the BBC for uncovering some of this, because I

:06:02. > :06:04.There are particularly young people who are

:06:05. > :06:06.being exploited because they are vulnerable.

:06:07. > :06:08.There is an added onus on the owners of these platforms to

:06:09. > :06:12.I'm being very explicit, because if they

:06:13. > :06:14.don't stand up to this and accept their responsibility,

:06:15. > :06:20.I will be pushing for legislation to do it for them.

:06:21. > :06:22.Our reporter Lauren Moss, who uncovered this story,

:06:23. > :06:24.is in Maidstone, where some of these sex-for-rent offers

:06:25. > :06:28.Lauren, you've actually spoken to some of the landlords involved

:06:29. > :06:40.Yes, I have had contact with one landlord here in Maidstone offering

:06:41. > :06:43.this type of sex for rent agreement. There are other adverts, too, in

:06:44. > :06:48.places like Rochester, Chatham and Brighton. The adverts aren't only

:06:49. > :06:53.aimed at homeless people who are sleeping rough, they are a large

:06:54. > :06:59.number of young people who simply can't afford a place to live. For a

:07:00. > :07:03.number of reasons, high rent, large deposits, or, like the women I spoke

:07:04. > :07:06.to, may have fled an abusive home life and Nelson for surfing. It is

:07:07. > :07:13.these people charities fear are being exploited. The expert you been

:07:14. > :07:20.talking to, say there are some real dangers involved? Yes, they are

:07:21. > :07:23.warning of damaging effect on mental health. Post-traumatic stress

:07:24. > :07:27.disorder and depression, and that can spiral into other things. The

:07:28. > :07:31.power imbalance and fear of losing your home if you don't keep your end

:07:32. > :07:36.of the bargain. The women I talk to two Dobby about another woman in the

:07:37. > :07:39.same house, the same arrangement, that was being thrown out because

:07:40. > :07:43.she didn't want to sleep with the Lambert any more. I approached

:07:44. > :07:48.another one board offering a friend of benefits and asked him if he

:07:49. > :07:52.thought he was taking advantage. He said, no, he thought it was a

:07:53. > :07:55.win-win situation and both sides had been the other party wanted and

:07:56. > :07:58.everyone went into it with their eyes wide open. But the women I met

:07:59. > :08:03.and the charities say that is not the thank you.

:08:04. > :08:07.And if you've been affected by the issues raised you can find

:08:08. > :08:16.We mustn't let terrorists "chain us with fear and hatred",

:08:17. > :08:25.the Archbishop of Canterbury's Easter message.

:08:26. > :08:27.The number of people risking their lives by trespassing

:08:28. > :08:30.on the rail network across the South East has

:08:31. > :08:34.reached an all-time high, according to Network Rail

:08:35. > :08:36.and the British Transport Police, who've launched a fresh campaign

:08:37. > :08:39.designed to warn young people of the dangers.

:08:40. > :08:43.Tonight, the mother of a teenager who was electrocuted walking home

:08:44. > :08:46.on the tracks in Kent says parents need to do more to teach

:08:47. > :08:49.their children of the dangers of what she calls a "silent killer".

:08:50. > :08:59.Our Education Correspondent Bryony MacKenzie has the details.

:09:00. > :09:10.Young people who are risking their lives. Railways can be deadly.

:09:11. > :09:16.Network Rail has issued footage of new Mrs, but nationwide trespassing

:09:17. > :09:30.is at its highest for a decade. -- footage on new misses. Jade was a

:09:31. > :09:36.really sensible girl, the pure shock that she would do that and risk her

:09:37. > :09:41.life was very hard to comprehend, and the guilt that we were, we never

:09:42. > :09:46.explain the dangers of the railway because it wasn't something we had

:09:47. > :09:49.thought about. Last year alone, there were more than 1100 incidents

:09:50. > :09:58.in which people risk their lives on the rail network in the south-east.

:09:59. > :10:04.A 17% rise on the previous year. The numbers increase doing the school

:10:05. > :10:15.holidays. This is the section of track brigade lost her life -- where

:10:16. > :10:18.Jade lost her life 11 years ago. Whilst the train isn't coming, it

:10:19. > :10:26.may look harmless, but the dangers are very real, as tracks are often

:10:27. > :10:34.electrified. Now a Paralympic and, this man lost his leg when he was 21

:10:35. > :10:38.years old. My foot went underneath the rail, I couldn't get it out, and

:10:39. > :10:46.literally waited for a train to come along and take the lead off as it

:10:47. > :10:51.were. Now, 100 schools and sports clubs are running schemes to warn

:10:52. > :10:54.young people of the dangers. Projects like this, if we all

:10:55. > :10:57.involved and educate each other on safety and make sure we have that

:10:58. > :11:06.conversation, people can being hurt on a really. It is a silent killer.

:11:07. > :11:07.That line can go from the middle to the outside, you do not know which

:11:08. > :11:10.rail is live. A Christian nurse sacked for gross

:11:11. > :11:13.misconduct after patients complained she preached at them has

:11:14. > :11:16.lost her case for unfair dismissal. Sarah Kuteh was dismissed

:11:17. > :11:18.after two warnings about inappropriate behaviour

:11:19. > :11:20.at the Darent Valley She'd told one cancer patient he'd

:11:21. > :11:25.have a better chance of survival if he prayed,

:11:26. > :11:28.while another patient described her behaviour as

:11:29. > :11:32.tantamount to "religious fervour". A priest found guilty of fraud

:11:33. > :11:35.after using the disability parking badge of a woman who'd died two

:11:36. > :11:39.months earlier has been told Ordained Anglican minister

:11:40. > :11:45.William Haymaker, from Bexhill, was caught using the blue badge

:11:46. > :11:47.to park in a disabled He's been released on bail until

:11:48. > :11:54.the next court hearing, in May. An artwork by Tracey Emin, a bronze

:11:55. > :11:58.death mask of her own face, has been bought by the National Portrait

:11:59. > :12:00.Gallery. The Kent artist helped

:12:01. > :12:02.to fund the purchase, so that it would remain in Britain

:12:03. > :12:07.and go on show to the public. Environmental campaigners

:12:08. > :12:09.are highlighting a growing problem of plastic waste being

:12:10. > :12:12.washed up on beaches across the South East,

:12:13. > :12:14.which is posing They say it's particularly bad

:12:15. > :12:19.in the Cuckmere Haven area Our Environment Correspondent

:12:20. > :12:24.Yvette Austin joins is live there for us now -

:12:25. > :12:27.Yvette, local people say they're fighting a losing battle

:12:28. > :12:39.trying to clear it up. Well, yes, at first sight this

:12:40. > :12:43.appears like an idyllic wildlife haven. But look a little closer and

:12:44. > :12:53.all was not what it seems. Some areas are literally strewn with

:12:54. > :12:57.pieces of plastic, threatening the beach and life at sea bags and

:12:58. > :13:03.bottles to tiny broken pieces, the drink one of the region's most

:13:04. > :13:09.famous beauty spots. High tide has done an enormous amount of small,

:13:10. > :13:15.marine litter on this area. Versus hundreds and hundreds. There is

:13:16. > :13:18.hundreds and hundreds of pieces, really nasty things that if they get

:13:19. > :13:24.into animals and fish, can cause agonising problems. It constantly

:13:25. > :13:32.goes through my mind, am I wasting my time? Or, the other thing I think

:13:33. > :13:38.is that everything I piece up is a piece that isn't going to get inside

:13:39. > :13:40.a creature. Plastic waste as a global problem, and when it does get

:13:41. > :13:47.into creatures, very few can be saved. This albatross chick in the

:13:48. > :13:50.Pacific was lucky. All this plastic rubbish was picked up here by half a

:13:51. > :13:56.dozen people in about half an hour. It is thought 8 million tonnes of

:13:57. > :14:02.plastic enters the ocean every year. With an estimated 46,000 pieces of

:14:03. > :14:11.plastic litter per square mile. A single plastic bottle can take more

:14:12. > :14:15.than 450 years to decompose. Many places are affected, but it does

:14:16. > :14:17.seem that this place is a hotspot for plastic litter. It is also a

:14:18. > :14:26.site of special scientific interest and in a national park, soak deeply

:14:27. > :14:32.worrying for campaigners. Try it is particularly bad here because things

:14:33. > :14:37.get caught in the river mouth. It doesn't go anywhere, just get

:14:38. > :14:41.smaller, it is you forever. It is an important spawning ground for lots

:14:42. > :14:44.of fish, rare species like the muscles as well, so lots of plastic

:14:45. > :14:51.litter will this would be having an impact on those delicate and rare

:14:52. > :14:59.green environments. There is no easy solution. It is a global threat that

:15:00. > :15:02.will go on for generations. East Sussex's county council owns the

:15:03. > :15:05.area and they say they are organised regular litter picks. Numerous

:15:06. > :15:09.groups come here and do what I was with today say they can mimic a

:15:10. > :15:12.minute amount of difference because the plastic watches and from the sea

:15:13. > :15:20.from all over the world and they say global change is needed. But

:15:21. > :15:25.visitors can help by taking bit away with them.

:15:26. > :15:27.Our exclusive investigation has revealed that vulnerable young

:15:28. > :15:30.people in Kent and Sussex are being targeted by online

:15:31. > :15:32.advertisers, offering them free accommodation in exchange for sex.

:15:33. > :15:37.Full steam ahead - after a multi-million pound

:15:38. > :15:38.restoration project, the Flying Scotsman

:15:39. > :15:51.And today, we have had more sunshine, but what about our Easter

:15:52. > :15:58.weekend? During me shortly before your full broadcast.

:15:59. > :16:00.We mustn't let terrorists "chain us with fear,

:16:01. > :16:04.Those were the words of the Archbishop of

:16:05. > :16:07.Canterbury Justin Welby today, ahead of his annual Easter message.

:16:08. > :16:10.In a wide-ranging interview, he also told me Kent communities

:16:11. > :16:12.needed more Government support if they're to continue

:16:13. > :16:18.But I started by asking him if it was possible to forgive

:16:19. > :16:21.Khalid Masood, who grew up in Kent and Sussex,

:16:22. > :16:24.but went onto kill five people in a terrorist attack

:16:25. > :16:37.I think the terrorists succeed when they chain

:16:38. > :16:40.us with fear, hatred, and

:16:41. > :16:49.But, pastorally, you don't just go up to someone and who's just lost

:16:50. > :16:53.someone they loved or has been terribly injured and say,

:16:54. > :16:55."No, you're going to do the forgiveness stuff".

:16:56. > :17:06.You weep with them and then, over time, one hopes

:17:07. > :17:10.and prays and encourages people not to be imprisoned

:17:11. > :17:15.There have been an awful lot of factors thrown up recently

:17:16. > :17:20.Migration, people from the Middle East,

:17:21. > :17:26.There was a big camp burnt down in northern France the other day,

:17:27. > :17:28.and one of our MEPs saying those people should be

:17:29. > :17:36.Britain has a huge history of generous response

:17:37. > :17:43.I have seen it down, for instance, on Romney Marsh.

:17:44. > :17:46.Just incredible, caring for children who have arrived without parents,

:17:47. > :17:49.and them being fostered just wonderfully.

:17:50. > :17:57.But you can't expect people to do that while at the same time

:17:58. > :18:04.And you think the Government hasn't put enough support in?

:18:05. > :18:10.I think, I am not going to go into party politics,

:18:11. > :18:14.And sometimes, the Government has succeeded and

:18:15. > :18:17.I think there needs to be a very clear

:18:18. > :18:21.statement, yes, we will take our share of people who are in

:18:22. > :18:30.But we will only do it when we put resources

:18:31. > :18:35.The church has been through the wringer

:18:36. > :18:38.in recent years, particularly in East Sussex, over historical

:18:39. > :18:46.Are you confident that the safeguarding issues that clearly

:18:47. > :18:49.were a problem have now been addressed?

:18:50. > :18:54.That those kind of things can't happen again now?

:18:55. > :18:57.I have spent long enough in all kinds of

:18:58. > :18:59.complicated situations, where you can

:19:00. > :19:04.fail in systems, to know that the moment I say I am

:19:05. > :19:11.I am confident that we are really striving to do it

:19:12. > :19:16.I am equally confident there is always bad people

:19:17. > :19:19.and people with these terrible desires, to harm children and

:19:20. > :19:22.vulnerable adults, to manipulate for sexual gratification,

:19:23. > :19:29.I know that that is always the case, it is part of

:19:30. > :19:33.But I do know that we are profoundly aware of the danger

:19:34. > :19:36.now and we are very, very tough with anyone

:19:37. > :19:41.who steps over the line and will go on being so.

:19:42. > :19:45.And we are stepping up our approach continually.

:19:46. > :19:48.Archbishop, a pleasure talking to you, thank you very much.

:19:49. > :19:59.The most famous steam engine of them all has arrived

:20:00. > :20:04.on the Bluebell Railway in Sussex today.

:20:05. > :20:06.The Flying Scotsman was greeted by enthusiastic crowds,

:20:07. > :20:11.and tickets to ride behind the iconic locomotive have been

:20:12. > :20:17.Built in 1923, it became famous across the globe as the first ever

:20:18. > :20:18.steam locomotive officially accredited with reaching

:20:19. > :20:25.It was retired by British Rail in 1963, but following a four point

:20:26. > :20:27.two million pounds restoration project it came back

:20:28. > :20:34.Our reporter Robin Gibson is live for us at Sheffield Park Station

:20:35. > :20:36.near Uckfield, Robin, it's a dream come true

:20:37. > :20:50.Well, it has fired all sorts of dreams. People who think of a time

:20:51. > :20:55.when you use to grow up wanting to be an engine driver, people who are

:20:56. > :20:59.fired up by the idea that this was a time, this was created when Britain

:21:00. > :21:04.led the world in engineering. For them to be so up close and personal

:21:05. > :21:09.to this great icon of the steam age, the sites, the sounds, the spells

:21:10. > :21:13.that you get has been firing up people's imaginations all day.

:21:14. > :21:16.For everyone who was there, this will be a day to remember.

:21:17. > :21:21.Young and old will be able to tell the story

:21:22. > :21:25.of the day I saw the Flying Scotsman.

:21:26. > :21:31.The Flying Scotsman is in Sheffield Park.

:21:32. > :21:36.I was so excited, because I used to go to

:21:37. > :21:41.It is an inspirational machine, a record breaker.

:21:42. > :21:44.It has steamed up to 100 miles an hour, it completed the

:21:45. > :21:48.first nonstop run from London to Edinburgh, and since it's working

:21:49. > :21:52.life ended, it has been bought, sold and fought over.

:21:53. > :21:55.It has been around the world and drained the pockets of

:21:56. > :22:03.Evoking all sorts of memories, thoughts and emotions.

:22:04. > :22:15.Something I never thought would happen.

:22:16. > :22:19.I never thought it would come down to Sussex, and here it is.

:22:20. > :22:29.It was the first ever train to go 100 mph on a stable track.

:22:30. > :22:31.Every time the Flying Scotsman stops, pauses or just

:22:32. > :22:35.passes by a fence, you see the crowds come out.

:22:36. > :22:38.It's as if a movie star has come to town.

:22:39. > :22:41.And speaking of stars, imagine being asked to

:22:42. > :22:46.To take the Flying Scotsman down the Bluebell Line

:22:47. > :22:51.The Flying Scotsman flying south, yes.

:22:52. > :22:54.It's been very good. It's been awesome, actually.

:22:55. > :22:57.It's been a real privilege to be able to

:22:58. > :23:02.There has been a lot of hard work by a lot of

:23:03. > :23:11.Close-up and personal with a time traveller from

:23:12. > :23:20.The Flying Scotsman, the ultimate blast from the past.

:23:21. > :23:25.Well, there is still lots of activity going on down here at

:23:26. > :23:28.Sheffield Park. What you're seeing behind me as bedtime for the Flying

:23:29. > :23:32.Scotsman and all of the other engines. As I said, the tickets to

:23:33. > :23:36.actually ride on it had sold out, but you can still come down here and

:23:37. > :23:41.see and experience all the other trains on the Bluebell line. It is

:23:42. > :23:48.here until next Wednesday. Time to savour a bit of railway history.

:23:49. > :23:52.It is a beautiful thing. A lot of happy people there. How are we

:23:53. > :24:02.looking for the Easter weekend? Could be better, could be worse. As

:24:03. > :24:07.legal into the weekend, what we can say is that compared to last

:24:08. > :24:10.weekend, the 24 degrees, we are not going to repeat that. Temperatures

:24:11. > :24:15.will be more to go for this time of year. Predominantly dry, occasional

:24:16. > :24:18.bright spells, but occasional cloud at times. Some uncertainty in the

:24:19. > :24:23.forecast as we go through Easter Sunday and into Monday. This

:24:24. > :24:30.morning, we had a stunning start to the day, pictures from our weather

:24:31. > :24:37.watchers. Some hazy sunshine, coming in going, milky skies for others.

:24:38. > :24:40.For some, the cloud broke and we had some glorious sunshine. Looking at

:24:41. > :24:45.the satellite picture, you can see how we saw that cloud coming and

:24:46. > :24:49.going, it built up, and through the afternoon we got a hole in the

:24:50. > :24:53.cloud. But at the moment, the cloud is tending to build. It will stay

:24:54. > :24:57.with us through the night, coming and going, some clueless bells. Like

:24:58. > :25:01.the last couple of nights, it could turn a bit chilly, some showers here

:25:02. > :25:06.and there. But tomorrow morning, we will get some bright, even sunny

:25:07. > :25:09.spells. Not until later in the day that a weak weather front begins to

:25:10. > :25:18.approach, making things more overcast later on. Potentially, some

:25:19. > :25:24.patchy and some might rain. In any brightness, 13 or 14, but clouds

:25:25. > :25:31.keeping temperature to 12 degrees. Some rain, on Friday night, but

:25:32. > :25:37.nothing significant. Patchy, hit and miss, but does keep the temperature

:25:38. > :25:40.is up at around eight or 9 degrees on Saturday. A great start on

:25:41. > :25:44.Saturday, if you showers still around, but it will clear. And

:25:45. > :25:49.improving picture with brighter skies later on in the afternoon.

:25:50. > :25:54.Temperatures at ten to 11 degrees, maybe a degree or so higher. Through

:25:55. > :25:58.Easter day, each to give an eye on that forecast. The current position

:25:59. > :26:02.of the weather fronts is to the north, so Easter Sunday, dry with

:26:03. > :26:07.some bright spells, but by Monday, potentially could introduce a bit

:26:08. > :26:11.more cloud with some patchy rain. But certainly, if you have plans, I

:26:12. > :26:19.wouldn't make this the loss forecast that you see. Overall, a lot of dry

:26:20. > :26:20.weather through the weekend, but clearer spells and maybe a touch of

:26:21. > :26:24.frost. Good luck to Brighton

:26:25. > :26:26.and Hove Albion. They play tomorrow, away at Wolves,

:26:27. > :26:29.and again on Easter Monday, If results go their way,

:26:30. > :26:33.they could secure promotion Best of luck to the seagulls. All

:26:34. > :27:06.the results of the recount. Goodbye. the most that have ever voted for

:27:07. > :27:11.anything in this country, take back control and forge our own

:27:12. > :27:20.destiny in the 21st century. Ukip members have campaigned

:27:21. > :27:24.for this for 23 years, but this is only the beginning of

:27:25. > :27:28.regaining control, to support Ukip

:27:29. > :27:32.in these local elections. I certainly would want us

:27:33. > :27:41.to make sure that we protect

:27:42. > :27:43.our greenfield sites and that we build

:27:44. > :27:48.on brownfield sites first of all we build affordable homes

:27:49. > :27:52.for the local people.
