The mother of a man from Canterbury who died in mysterious circumstances

:00:00.:00:08.

in Poland says she's still waiting for answers more than six

:00:09.:00:11.

Max Spiers was widely considered to have been a conspiracy theorist

:00:12.:00:17.

and the authorities in Poland have now launched an investigation.

:00:18.:00:20.

The mind fractures itself and creates an amnesiac

:00:21.:00:24.

Max Spiers wanted to expose what he saw as cover-ups.

:00:25.:00:30.

He died aged 39, days before he was due to speak

:00:31.:00:32.

His mother told a BBC documentary that her son said if he didn't

:00:33.:00:38.

I want to know what happened to my son.

:00:39.:00:43.

Massive, massive gaps that are extremely painful for me.

:00:44.:00:48.

Every morning that I wake up, I worry about what happened to him.

:00:49.:00:53.

It's more important for me to know what happened,

:00:54.:00:57.

The death of a conspiracy theorist has inevitably led

:00:58.:01:05.

to a huge number of theories, particularly on the internet,

:01:06.:01:08.

The family is hoping for some clarity when an inquest

:01:09.:01:13.

into the death is held here in Kent later this year.

:01:14.:01:17.

The prosecutor in Warsaw, Lukasz Lapczynski, has launched

:01:18.:01:20.

an investigation into what happened after the death.

:01:21.:01:42.

A post-mortem examination in Kent proved inconclusive.

:01:43.:01:45.

Simon Jones, BBC South East Today, Canterbury.

:01:46.:02:00.

Sussex Police are investigating tonight after a group of men armed

:02:01.:02:03.

with what appeared to be a type of gun tied up two men

:02:04.:02:06.

The attack happened just before 4.30 yesterday afternoon.

:02:07.:02:09.

The gang searched the flat but nothing was taken.

:02:10.:02:11.

Neither of the victims needed hospital treatment.

:02:12.:02:13.

Two people have been taken to hospital after a fire in Maidstone.

:02:14.:02:16.

Emergency services were called to Marsham Street at around 5.30

:02:17.:02:18.

after the blaze broke out in the attic of a house.

:02:19.:02:21.

It's not yet known what caused the fire.

:02:22.:02:24.

Hospices need more time to adapt to budget cuts.

:02:25.:02:26.

That was the message today from the Chief Executive

:02:27.:02:28.

of a hospice in Brighton that has had its funding cut by around 10%.

:02:29.:02:32.

Local NHS bosses say they have to share out

:02:33.:02:34.

limited resourcse fairly, but that means charities rely

:02:35.:02:36.

Ian Palmer met a campaigner who was running morning's half

:02:37.:02:41.

Adam Betteridge lost a friend living with HIV who took his own life

:02:42.:02:49.

He and Pablo sang in a choir together.

:02:50.:02:54.

He'd been living with HIV for a long time and it was complicated for him.

:02:55.:02:59.

And I didn't realise how much it was affecting him.

:03:00.:03:03.

I don't think anyone really realised.

:03:04.:03:06.

Sussex Beacon provides specialist care for people living with HIV.

:03:07.:03:10.

The clinical commissioning group pays half the charity's costs.

:03:11.:03:13.

The CCG is cutting the amount the charity receives.

:03:14.:03:16.

The potential for further cuts is being discussed and that's kind

:03:17.:03:21.

of when we went public and said that we really can't take

:03:22.:03:24.

Campaigners have collected more than 10,500 signatures.

:03:25.:03:34.

Sussex Beacon is supported by Brighton's MPs.

:03:35.:03:35.

The aim is to take the petition to Downing Street.

:03:36.:03:41.

Time for a look at the weather now with Wendy Hurrell.

:03:42.:03:46.

Through the day the breeze has been picking up and it will be a bit

:03:47.:03:51.

There were white horses along the seaside as it did so.

:03:52.:03:55.

This was a picture that was sent in by one of our Weather Watchers

:03:56.:03:58.

and as we go through this week rather unsettled conditions

:03:59.:04:00.

from time to time and also it will feel a bit chilly particularly

:04:01.:04:04.

They are continuing through the night and they will

:04:05.:04:09.

Some of them might have a rumble of thunder, a bit of hail mixed in.

:04:10.:04:14.

They could be quite heavy and they will be

:04:15.:04:16.

swept along on a breeze from a south-south-westerly

:04:17.:04:18.

I think as the day goes on it will start to feel colder as those

:04:19.:04:23.

Temperatures by the end of the day may not be much higher

:04:24.:04:27.

Throughout this week, yes, it's going to be a bit

:04:28.:04:30.

unsettled but there will be spells of sunshine.

:04:31.:04:32.

I think Tuesday is looking pretty decent for most of us

:04:33.:04:35.

although we are at the risk of getting a few showers.

:04:36.:04:37.

There will be a spell of rain at some point on Wednesday and then

:04:38.:04:41.

a ridge of high pressure builds in for Thursday to settle

:04:42.:04:43.

the weather down a bit, although it is going to be

:04:44.:04:46.

We're back with the breakfast news tomorrow.

:04:47.:04:52.

Good evening. We saw the fist named storm of the season today. It was

:04:53.:05:14.

Storm Ewan, named by the Irish meteorological service, because it

:05:15.:05:17.

was in Ireland we expected the biggest impacts. For the rest of the

:05:18.:05:21.

UK it was quite windy and wet, but the worst of it is making its way

:05:22.:05:26.

towards the Northern Isles. We'll see gusts of wind here overnight to

:05:27.:05:28.
