:01:49. > :01:52.levels in Oxford have been cut by a third over the past decade but the
:01:53. > :01:58.city and county councils want to do more. One idea is to create a zero
:01:59. > :02:04.emission zone, only accessible to electric vehicles, cyclists and
:02:05. > :02:09.pedestrians. It has to go in those streets where pollution is

:03:31. > :03:38.pollution do to us? Earlier I spoke to Dr Matt Loxham,
:03:39. > :03:40.who studies airborne pollution So when we inhale air pollution,
:03:41. > :03:50.and it's this mixture of particles and gases,
:03:51. > :03:52.what it does is it enters our lungs, and it can cause our lungs
:03:53. > :03:55.to become inflamed. Now, in people who are otherwise
:03:56. > :03:57.healthy, they might just get a cough or a sore throat,
:03:58. > :04:04.but in people who are at risk, and this can be asthmatics,
:04:05. > :04:07.it can be very young people, very old people, we see a whole
:04:08. > :04:10.range of health effects that we wouldn't see if they weren't
:04:11. > :04:12.in polluted environments, things like asthma attacks,
:04:13. > :04:14.heart attacks, strokes, they are all linked to exposure
:04:15. > :04:16.to air pollution, and right across the life course,
:04:17. > :04:19.from very young children to elderly people, you see these affects of air
:04:20. > :04:22.pollution that you wouldn't see When we cover stories
:04:23. > :04:25.like this we often bombard Is there really a safe
:04:26. > :04:28.level of pollution? That is one of the things
:04:29. > :04:32.we are pretty sure about, there is no safe limit,
:04:33. > :04:34.so however low it goes, as long as there is pollution there,
:04:35. > :04:37.it's still damaging your health. The good news is that if you make
:04:38. > :04:40.any reduction it will result in an improvement to health,
:04:41. > :04:42.so any reduction is better than nothing but there's
:04:43. > :04:47.always further you can go. Lots being said today about,
:04:48. > :04:58.for example, the effect What would you say to those
:04:59. > :05:02.arguments, about maybe banning The first question is,
:05:03. > :05:14.do diesel vehicles have an affect? Diesel vehicles are probably
:05:15. > :05:16.the major polluters They're by no means the only
:05:17. > :05:20.polluters but pollution from diesel vehicles can constitute a large
:05:21. > :05:22.amount of air pollution, but banning them is very difficult,
:05:23. > :05:25.because if you ban people who bought diesel cars in good faith
:05:26. > :05:28.from using their cars, how are they going to
:05:29. > :05:32.replace their cars? Maybe you want them to use
:05:33. > :05:36.public transport, what if there isn't public
:05:37. > :05:38.transport provision? It becomes apparent very quickly
:05:39. > :05:41.that this is a really complex difficult to solve without really
:05:42. > :05:45.joined-up thinking. So in brief there is no
:05:46. > :05:47.straightforward one bullet It's got to involve a lot
:05:48. > :05:52.of joined-up thinking, a lot of activity from a wide range
:05:53. > :05:55.of contributors, whether this is big companies and big organisations
:05:56. > :05:58.or people at the individual level as well, and it's got to involve
:05:59. > :06:05.commitment from all of those groups of society as well, and only
:06:06. > :06:08.then, with all this joined-up work, will we really see a major impact
:06:09. > :06:11.on air quality in our cities. So no one thing can change
:06:12. > :06:16.the air pollution levels, but many want to try
:06:17. > :06:18.and do something. Milton Keynes has been given
:06:19. > :06:21.?9 million by the Government to cut vehicle emissions and to get
:06:22. > :06:23.everyone driving electric. David Whitely has been to the town

:06:36. > :06:42.in the UK to get government funds The aim is to reduce harmful
:06:43. > :06:56.emissions and also cut the carbon footprint, but just how realistic is
:06:57. > :06:58.all of this? I have come to quiz the council's
:06:59. > :07:01.head of transport innovation. The take-up of people buying
:07:02. > :07:03.electric cars in this country at this current moment isn't that
:07:04. > :07:06.great, only a few thousand, compared to millions of traditional
:07:07. > :07:08.style cars being driven. There's a long way to
:07:09. > :07:11.go yet, isn't there? There is a long way to go,
:07:12. > :07:14.but results are showing that by having this type of investment
:07:15. > :07:16.and thinking that We've seen over the past 12 months
:07:17. > :07:23.200% increase in the number You are right, it is small numbers,

:07:41. > :07:45.overnight decided to change their vehicle to an electric vehicle
:07:46. > :07:48.the next day, how would we cope with that in this country

:07:54. > :07:58.sort of speed you'd have You'd overtax the electricity
:07:59. > :08:02.distribution system. But we've also been working
:08:03. > :08:05.here in Milton Keynes on smart energy systems,
:08:06. > :08:09.where you can actually have more flexible grids that can cope
:08:10. > :08:14.with the demands on electric vehicles, so for example we've had
:08:15. > :08:18.some work done with ourselves at the Open University on how people
:08:19. > :08:21.can charge their electric vehicles from their solar
:08:22. > :08:23.panels on the house, and that helps to stop any
:08:24. > :08:25.stress on the electricity Other news now, and officials
:08:26. > :08:46.at Didcot Town Football Club are counting the cost after a pitch
:08:47. > :08:48.invasion by away supporters saw their stadium vandalised
:08:49. > :08:50.and players abused. The match against league leaders
:08:51. > :08:52.Hereford descended into chaos in the 87th minute when
:08:53. > :08:55.the visitors went 2-1 ahead. Fans invaded the patch and match
:08:56. > :08:57.officials abandoned the game. Fans and stewards spill
:08:58. > :09:01.from the terraces and onto the turf, in a scene more resembling
:09:02. > :09:03.of a bar-room brawl Today staff at Didcot Town FC
:09:04. > :09:06.were assessing the damage, after their home game with Hereford
:09:07. > :09:09.FC turned into chaos. We were being battered at that time
:09:10. > :09:13.so we knew we weren't And then all of a sudden
:09:14. > :09:18.we saw a ruckus on the pitch, our goalkeeper
:09:19. > :09:20.was surrounded by a few supporters and our own players trying
:09:21. > :09:25.to protect him, and, yeah, This stadium has a capacity of more
:09:26. > :09:32.than 3000 people but for Saturday's visit of Hereford
:09:33. > :09:34.there was a gate of 796. Now, 700 of those were away
:09:35. > :09:37.supporters, and all was fine, until the 87th minute,
:09:38. > :09:43.when Hereford took the lead. Luckily we had TV footage available
:09:44. > :09:48.to us, we had a company which was filming this game,
:09:49. > :09:51.so we've got everything, in HD, wonderfully, so, yeah,
:09:52. > :09:57.we'll be presenting that to the Southern League and the FA
:09:58. > :10:00.when we're called upon to do that, and they hopefully have captured
:10:01. > :10:02.everything that went on. Two men have been arrested
:10:03. > :10:04.following the incident, and in a statement a spokesperson
:10:05. > :10:15.for Hereford FC said... It's yet to be decided
:10:16. > :10:17.if the result will stand, or whether a potential rematch will
:10:18. > :10:22.be played, behind closed doors. Bus drivers in Oxford have gone
:10:23. > :10:27.on strike for a second day in a dispute sparked
:10:28. > :10:30.by Christmas pay. Unite union members
:10:31. > :10:34.at the Oxford Bus Company are demanding payment for working
:10:35. > :10:40.five holiday days over Christmas. For an update on the dispute,
:10:41. > :10:43.earlier I spoke to our reporter David Lumb, who has been covering
:10:44. > :10:44.the story. If you ever wanted an indication
:10:45. > :10:47.of the strength of feeling around this, you could see it
:10:48. > :10:49.quite clearly today. There were more than 100 workers
:10:50. > :10:52.on the picket line - lots of them with placards,
:10:53. > :10:53.flags, vuvuzelas. It was really, really
:10:54. > :10:55.emotional and strong. A number of services
:10:56. > :10:59.have been disrupted. They include the x90 bus service
:11:00. > :11:01.between London and Oxford. The Unite union, which has been
:11:02. > :11:03.backing these workers, says taking industrial action wasn't
:11:04. > :11:06.a decision that was taken lightly. However, the passengers
:11:07. > :11:09.and the public have been really We humbly apologise
:11:10. > :11:14.for the disruption but at the end of the day you have to make a stand
:11:15. > :11:18.and the only way you can make a stand is to do what the guys
:11:19. > :11:22.and gals are doing behind me. On the face of this it's a dispute
:11:23. > :11:26.about how much workers should get In practice, though,
:11:27. > :11:29.the union says that that is just the straw that broke
:11:30. > :11:31.the camel's back. It says workers have deep-rooted
:11:32. > :11:33.frustrations about the pay and working conditions
:11:34. > :11:40.they are having to deal with. I did speak to Phil Southall
:11:41. > :11:43.from the Oxford Bus Company. He says that he's made
:11:44. > :11:45.a number of offers, Well, today we've managed to get
:11:46. > :11:52.around 90% of the service out. We are focusing on minimising
:11:53. > :11:54.the inconvenience to our customers, so we've got a really good level
:11:55. > :11:58.of service out, we've had more people coming to work
:11:59. > :12:00.than we were expecting and therefore we have tried to minimise the impact
:12:01. > :12:03.in what was very difficult Two more days of strike action have
:12:04. > :12:07.been scheduled for next Friday Both sides say they hope

:12:23. > :12:29.champions and local cycling clubs. Part of my journey in cycling has
:12:30. > :12:34.been finding other women like me who are inspiring and encouraging
:12:35. > :12:37.and I want to be able to share that Representation is also really
:12:38. > :12:44.important when it comes to cycling, be it if you're a woman of colour,
:12:45. > :12:48.if you're a woman of a certain age as well, it feels
:12:49. > :12:51.like there shouldn't be any barriers to it, so having events
:12:52. > :12:53.like this going on, like, across a whole weekend,
:12:54. > :12:55.is amazing, to encourage about a family tradition

:25:06. > :25:07.a fresh message inside. But although Stephen posted the card
:25:08. > :25:09.as normal at the pillar box near his home in Thame last month,
:25:10. > :25:26.it failed to arrive It is so lovely when it arrives in
:25:27. > :25:27.the post, I look forward to it. And look forward to trying to find out

:25:38. > :25:41.this year, it didn't turn up. It's been a month and is now

:26:01. > :26:05.hopefully somebody who might receive it by accident opens it and realises
:26:06. > :26:06.that this is a special thing and hangs on to it rather than throws it

:26:13. > :26:28.to copy the idea of re-sending Forgive me for saying, but it is a
:26:29. > :26:32.bit cheap! Recycling the same card for more than 30 years. What was the
:26:33. > :26:34.thinking behind it? Because of the money we save!

:26:42. > :26:44.That said, they also accept the sentimental value of this
:26:45. > :26:46.particular birthday card, and are are doing what they can
:26:47. > :26:49.There's still hope that Claire will get her belated
