:00:00. > :00:16.President Putin calls for the West to condemn it. Now

:00:17. > :00:28.And later on, relieving the pain with the world's first 'intelligent'

:00:29. > :00:31.prosthetic. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's programme: The runner

:00:32. > :00:35.from Newbury who died at Sunday's marathon is remembered. Coming to a

:00:36. > :00:37.street near you ` the makers of Benefit Street target Southampton

:00:38. > :00:40.for a documentary on immigration. New research is a step forward in

:00:41. > :00:44.stopping the pain caused by artificial limbs. And will they stay

:00:45. > :00:47.the course? We train with England's women rugby players ahead of the

:00:48. > :00:53.World Cup. Just to be able to get out and jump of things and climb up

:00:54. > :00:56.things, it was fantastic. First tonight, the Minister for Portsmouth

:00:57. > :01:01.has put forward a ?91 million wish list for creating new jobs to try to

:01:02. > :01:08.replace those lost by the closure of the city's BAE shipyard. The ideas,

:01:09. > :01:10.unveiled five weeks before council elections, will still have to

:01:11. > :01:13.compete for Government funding but include ?10 million to improve

:01:14. > :01:16.Portsmouth Docks to attract new business. Improving transport links,

:01:17. > :01:18.such as more frequent trains, between Portsmouth and Southampton.

:01:19. > :01:23.Developing manufacturing technology through a new centre of excellence.

:01:24. > :01:39.There's even a suggestion to involve Sir Ben Ainslie. Steve Humphrey

:01:40. > :01:47.reports. He is the minister with the task of spearheading the stimulation

:01:48. > :01:55.of job creation. He explained that organisations which want government

:01:56. > :02:00.funding will have to lead for it. There are a number of funding

:02:01. > :02:09.streams available. This area has to compete with the rest of England but

:02:10. > :02:12.there are some superb ideas. We support ideas but we have to see

:02:13. > :02:18.more credible opportunities coming forward. The report is based on

:02:19. > :02:27.whether or not we can get investment into the city. BAE say around half

:02:28. > :02:32.of the people facing redundancy at the shipyard will be found jobs

:02:33. > :02:36.elsewhere. The unions want firm decisions made before the yard's

:02:37. > :02:44.skilled workers leave their posts in the autumn. We do not want to get in

:02:45. > :02:53.a position where the people have a genuine desire to acquire the yard

:02:54. > :02:56.and the biggest thing there is the people themselves but when they find

:02:57. > :03:05.out the dismal body in the yard, the walk away. Ben Ainslie will play a

:03:06. > :03:17.key role by basing his America's Cup team in ports mouth. If we look at

:03:18. > :03:21.Formula one racing, most of the teams are based in Britain and the

:03:22. > :03:26.create thousands of high`end engineering jobs. Ben Ainslie's

:03:27. > :03:36.project is the same but on the water. The minister was visiting

:03:37. > :03:46.this company today which has grown from four employees to 120 in just a

:03:47. > :03:50.couple of years. It's been confirmed that the man who died after running

:03:51. > :03:54.the London Marathon at the weekend was a father of two from Newbury.

:03:55. > :03:57.Since Rob Berry's death on Sunday his Justgiving page has tens of

:03:58. > :04:04.thousands of pounds in donations to the osteoporosis charity he was

:04:05. > :04:09.supporting. Katy Austin reports. His log retail the highs and lows of

:04:10. > :04:13.training to run the London Marathon. The 42`year`old was raising money

:04:14. > :04:21.for the National osteoporosis Society because his mum has the same

:04:22. > :04:29.condition. Recently he has been having a problem with breathing and

:04:30. > :04:34.had been using his inhaler more often. He was told it might be down

:04:35. > :04:38.to pollution and he said he hoped so and he did not want it to be like

:04:39. > :04:44.that when running the marathon. He died during the marathon in London

:04:45. > :04:51.and it was a shock to those who knew him. He was in ninth place about one

:04:52. > :05:02.year ago and he looked really happy it is a shock to everyone. Donations

:05:03. > :05:07.to his just giving page have soared. One of the things we wish to do is

:05:08. > :05:17.put in fracture liaison services. This will be a really important part

:05:18. > :05:23.of our next piece of work. Online fundraising means he will leave a

:05:24. > :05:35.legacy he could never have expected. A 79`year`old man `` A 79`year`old

:05:36. > :05:38.man has appeared in court accused of murdering his wife at their home in

:05:39. > :05:41.West Sussex. 70`year`old Sandra Boakes was found with head injuries

:05:42. > :05:45.in Grasmere Avenue in Sompting on the 3rd of April. She died two days

:05:46. > :05:47.later in hospital. Dudley Boakes was initially charged with attempted

:05:48. > :05:50.murder but the Crown Prosecution Service later authorised a charge of

:05:51. > :05:54.murder. He's been remanded in custody until June. Community

:05:55. > :05:57.leaders in Southampton have expressed concern about a proposed

:05:58. > :06:01.Channel Four documentary which is set to be filmed in the city. It's

:06:02. > :06:03.the same team who were responsible for the controversial Benefits

:06:04. > :06:05.Street programme which was criticised for misrepresenting the

:06:06. > :06:08.people it followed. The new documentary has a working title of

:06:09. > :06:12.Immigration Street. Let's join Radio Solent's Tim Robinson who is in

:06:13. > :06:16.Derby Road. What do we know of the plans? Love Productions, which made

:06:17. > :06:20.Benefits Street, has been filming in this part of Southampton for a pilot

:06:21. > :06:22.for what they describe as a "documentary exploring the subject

:06:23. > :06:25.of immigration, and how people within different ethnic groups and

:06:26. > :06:29.religions live in close proximity to each other..." That sounds a bit

:06:30. > :06:36.like Benefits Street ` part 2 ` here in Southampton. You can see why

:06:37. > :06:39.they've perhaps chosen Derby Road ` there's a very diverse mix of

:06:40. > :06:44.cultures and countries in a half mile street. I've heard researchers

:06:45. > :06:48.have been looking for the stars of this potential new show and they've

:06:49. > :06:52.been knocking on doors of most, if not all of the homes and shops in

:06:53. > :06:57.this road. What do people there make of all this? Some have welcomed it

:06:58. > :07:01.but the council and local MP say they're concerned. Benefits Street

:07:02. > :07:06.was extremely controversial ` a lot of abuse was directed at its

:07:07. > :07:09.subjects by the public. Community leaders say they're worried this

:07:10. > :07:12.area could become the focus for all sorts of strong feelings about

:07:13. > :07:16.immigration in the UK, and bring serious outside trouble to these

:07:17. > :07:32.doorsteps. Religious leaders are worried too. Considering the track

:07:33. > :07:40.record of this company, people after Benefits Street were concerned it

:07:41. > :07:46.gave a distorted betrayal. People do not know what they are getting into

:07:47. > :07:53.at the moment. What did the television channel have to say? It

:07:54. > :07:57.says that the production company are looking at a programme along these

:07:58. > :08:03.lines but the title and location are yet to be decided. It says the

:08:04. > :08:10.previous programme sparked an important debate. If all goes well,

:08:11. > :08:20.this could be on here early next year. It has been seen as something

:08:21. > :08:26.of a revolution in the way the jets are spent looking after people who

:08:27. > :08:30.receive career. The idea is to boost freedom and flexibility but as the

:08:31. > :08:38.scheme rules out some say it is too much will the burden for those

:08:39. > :08:42.involved. This 25 and older is in poor health and has profound

:08:43. > :08:47.disabilities. She is unable to swallow or talk and has very limited

:08:48. > :08:55.movement but she can respond to her carers. Over time they have tuned

:08:56. > :08:58.into her body language. You can get big facial reactions from her when

:08:59. > :09:08.she is happy she will smile and laugh. Previously heard Kier was

:09:09. > :09:11.organised by the NHS, revolving around a day centre. Now her mum

:09:12. > :09:19.decides how the budget should be spent, employing a consistent team

:09:20. > :09:25.of carers. It means she has got choice. She enjoys music. Although

:09:26. > :09:30.there is music at the day centre, she goes to music centres twice a

:09:31. > :09:36.week now and you can see the difference, she is much happier. Her

:09:37. > :09:50.mother, who suffered a breakdown, is much happier now. She has become an

:09:51. > :09:54.employer. There is a risk that without support, a solicitor or

:09:55. > :09:59.advocate or otherwise, albeit health needs and nursing needs will not be

:10:00. > :10:06.identified. The only Kier plan drawn up will be inadequate to meet those

:10:07. > :10:10.needs. This trust is one of several bodies providing support to people

:10:11. > :10:14.who want personal health budgets. It is worried that some commissioning

:10:15. > :10:21.groups who dole out the money are not ready for this change but the

:10:22. > :10:30.pilot project is sharing its experience. The way forward is that

:10:31. > :10:34.the most `` more support that we can give and the individual and on

:10:35. > :10:41.trust, all of those services will get to those people. For Katie and

:10:42. > :10:48.her parents, personal health budgets have been a success. They are keen

:10:49. > :10:53.to encourage others to take up the opportunity which will become a

:10:54. > :10:56.right in the autumn. A major road through West Sussex was closed for

:10:57. > :10:59.several hours today following an accident. A car, van and lorry

:11:00. > :11:02.collided on the A27 at Arundel just before midday. A 57`year`old woman

:11:03. > :11:04.from Littlehampton was taken to hospital with suspected pelvic

:11:05. > :11:07.injuries. The 36`year`old lorry driver, who's from the Netherlands,

:11:08. > :11:10.was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving.

:11:11. > :11:13.Still to come in this evening's South Today: It's a full`on assault

:11:14. > :11:19.as England's women rugby players prepare for the World Cup.

:11:20. > :11:25.A waste of time, energy and money ` that's how a group of parents have

:11:26. > :11:31.described trying to open a new free school in Wokingham. It was due to

:11:32. > :11:34.open in 2016 and they'd started recruiting parents and finding a

:11:35. > :11:37.site. But seven months after giving their backing, Wokingham Borough

:11:38. > :11:45.Council says it will open its own school instead. Ben Moore reports.

:11:46. > :11:52.Starting a new school from scratch is no walk in the park as school

:11:53. > :11:57.group will tell you. The say the very council who supported them is

:11:58. > :12:01.no undercutting them by building its own academy. It was a big shock

:12:02. > :12:06.because we had always been in consultation with the borough

:12:07. > :12:11.council and had kept them involved with what we were doing. We do feel

:12:12. > :12:18.let down by the Council, the question now is whether they can

:12:19. > :12:23.deliver. School places are in short supply here. The council admits it

:12:24. > :12:30.will run out of secondary school places by the 2017 academic year. A

:12:31. > :12:37.new academy the say was always within its plans. There are beds

:12:38. > :12:40.going forward to the Department for Education where groups of parents

:12:41. > :12:44.have done it also alongside the local authority. We would be happy

:12:45. > :12:52.to support them doing that if they wanted to as well. This was the most

:12:53. > :12:57.likely site for the free school. Some say the council's plans to open

:12:58. > :13:04.its own school in 2016 are ambitious. Parents say they hope the

:13:05. > :13:13.council school plans are not a ploy ahead of upcoming local elections.

:13:14. > :13:18.Pubs and clubs in Southampton could be charged extra for selling alcohol

:13:19. > :13:23.after midnight. The City Council is to start consulting on introducing a

:13:24. > :13:31.late`night levy from next February. It will be used to fund taxi

:13:32. > :13:35.marshals, extra CCTV and street cleaning. The same levy was

:13:36. > :13:42.introduced in Newcastle last autumn. How has that been working in

:13:43. > :13:48.Newcastle? Initially all be licensees were against it because

:13:49. > :13:53.turkeys do not vote for Christmas. Nobody wants to pay tax. We found

:13:54. > :13:59.out by working with the City Council and getting the best reduction in

:14:00. > :14:07.the tax it is working very well. Do you see that you should contribute

:14:08. > :14:12.to the city centre? Nightlife causes disorder and disruption for those

:14:13. > :14:17.living nearby. It does but our local newspaper did the calculations and

:14:18. > :14:23.find out that the 35 top premises, there are 400 in a square mile,

:14:24. > :14:27.already paid enough to cover all the bills so we are already doing our

:14:28. > :14:34.sheer by paying late`night levy but if it is spent correctly it can

:14:35. > :14:42.benefit everybody. I'd macro do you think it is being spent correctly?

:14:43. > :14:46.Absolutely. I have just left the meeting thrashing out where we all

:14:47. > :14:54.believe it should be spent. We did that successfully. Listening to that

:14:55. > :15:00.is a counsellor from Southampton. Is this levy the only way you can pay

:15:01. > :15:05.for these services bearing in mind you already pay for business rates

:15:06. > :15:14.and they have put up night`time parking in the city? Absolutely. It

:15:15. > :15:18.is a lot of money. The situation we find ourselves in is either we have

:15:19. > :15:24.to withdraw our support for the city centre economy or find another way

:15:25. > :15:29.of paying for it. The idea behind the levy is to find another way of

:15:30. > :15:34.paying for it. Like Newcastle, we will work with the trade to

:15:35. > :15:41.establish how this money will be spent. I think it could lead to a

:15:42. > :15:46.better outcome for the city. 77% of this levy goes to the police to

:15:47. > :15:50.support the policing of the night`time economy. That takes half

:15:51. > :15:57.of the policing resource that is on duty on a Friday and Saturday night

:15:58. > :16:03.in the city. We think there is an opportunity to invest that money and

:16:04. > :16:09.free up some for the outer suburbs. Newcastle are ahead of the game, a

:16:10. > :16:15.party city, Southampton is a big student city. I think that is a big

:16:16. > :16:20.driver for us. We have seen how successfully it has been introduced

:16:21. > :16:28.in Newcastle and we hope to do it the same way. What advice would you

:16:29. > :16:35.give to Southampton? They must give a reduction to those who have best

:16:36. > :16:49.practice. That draws standards upwards. Thank you. It is estimated

:16:50. > :16:57.as many as 50,000 people in the UK are lower limb amputees. Research is

:16:58. > :17:04.at Southampton University have no developed pressure sensors. These

:17:05. > :17:10.could also be used in other ways to prevent unnecessary pain and

:17:11. > :17:15.treatment. This man had an amputation below his right knee soon

:17:16. > :17:20.after he was born and then above the knee in his teens. Now 26, he is

:17:21. > :17:27.helping researchers develop an early warning system to ensure artificial

:17:28. > :17:32.limbs remain well fitted despite the stresses and strains of everyday

:17:33. > :17:36.use. It is thought there are about 50,000 lower limb amputees in the

:17:37. > :17:40.UK. There is long`standing evidence that many do not use their

:17:41. > :17:45.prospective cleanser as much as they would like because of discomfort.

:17:46. > :17:53.The Stump can change in shape and size even during the course of a

:17:54. > :17:57.day. It can rob, create source, blisters. Because it hurts every

:17:58. > :18:04.step because you are having to put all of your weight on it you are

:18:05. > :18:08.less likely to want to do things. The sensor is thin and flexible like

:18:09. > :18:17.a small postage stamp. It is take to a liner, essentially a sock. It is

:18:18. > :18:26.then placed within the artificial limb. Off you go. The sensor is now

:18:27. > :18:32.picking up information about pressure on the stump and whether it

:18:33. > :18:36.is robbing. That information is being passed on to researchers and

:18:37. > :18:43.clinicians who can identify the need for any adjustments to prevent

:18:44. > :18:47.discomfort and pain. The research is planned to develop a system of

:18:48. > :18:54.alerts for tablets and smartphones in the sensor acts as a second skin

:18:55. > :18:59.warning of potential problems. A large number of lower limb amputees

:19:00. > :19:04.may suffer from nerve damage and with a reduced skin sensation, that

:19:05. > :19:12.means they do not feel the pain of tissue injury. It may be too late

:19:13. > :19:16.because once the soft tissue is compromised then it could get

:19:17. > :19:25.infected and it could be really serious. If all goes well the

:19:26. > :19:30.sensors could be available to NHS patients within three years and

:19:31. > :19:33.there may be more uses like shoe insoles for diabetics and in

:19:34. > :19:40.wheelchairs and mattresses preventing pain and distress.

:19:41. > :19:43.Opponents to plans to build a second runway at Gatwick Airport have

:19:44. > :19:45.launched their campaign to fight it. Those behind the Gatwick's Big

:19:46. > :19:52.Enough campaign have sent out thousands of car stickers and

:19:53. > :19:55.leaflets. Earlier this month, the airport began consulting on its

:19:56. > :19:59.expansion plans. There are three different options with a new runway

:20:00. > :20:02.to the south of the existing one. Nearly all of the south's beaches

:20:03. > :20:05.tested in this year's Good Beach Guide have passed with flying

:20:06. > :20:08.colours. The latest report to be released from the Marine

:20:09. > :20:11.Conservation Society shows that all East Dorset beaches bar Boscombe and

:20:12. > :20:15.Swanage made it into the very top category. On the Isle of Wight,

:20:16. > :20:20.Bembridge and Shanklin were also the only ones not to get full marks.

:20:21. > :20:30.While in Hampshire the only beach falling short of outstanding was

:20:31. > :20:34.Southsea. No sport. I was worried you were not going to come back to

:20:35. > :20:41.the newsroom today. You have been doing hard`core training? Yes, you

:20:42. > :20:45.will see I was unleashed on a cargo net and I wondered if I would make

:20:46. > :20:48.it back. Reading moved back into the play`off places on goal difference

:20:49. > :20:51.after a one`all draw with Leicester City last night. Defender Alex

:20:52. > :20:54.Pearce headed the Royals in front from Jordan Obita's free`kick early

:20:55. > :20:57.on. But Danny Drinkwater drove in an equaliser to pull Leicester level

:20:58. > :21:07.after half an hour. Reading are now winless in seven at home and with

:21:08. > :21:08.just one win in five overall. Let's look at the play`off contenders in

:21:09. > :21:22.the championship. It is going to be a nervy finish for

:21:23. > :21:25.the teams in and around the play`offs over the next few weeks.

:21:26. > :21:28.Now it's not the standard World Cup preparation you'd think an England

:21:29. > :21:31.team would be put through. But today, England's Womens Rugby team

:21:32. > :21:34.have been tackling the assault courses of the Royal Navy's HMS

:21:35. > :21:37.Collingwood in Fareham, ahead of this summer's World Cup in France. I

:21:38. > :21:41.went along to see them tackle the cargo net. They're used to running

:21:42. > :21:44.in tries rather than rubber tyres, but today was all about team

:21:45. > :21:47.building ahead of this summer's World Cup. The squad of 30 were

:21:48. > :21:57.separated into four teams, competing against one another and the clock.

:21:58. > :22:02.The idea is to overcome obstacles on the course and then transferred back

:22:03. > :22:07.to the dog the pitch. It is about decision`making under pressure and

:22:08. > :22:10.teamwork. Whether it was carrying a dummy body that they affectionately

:22:11. > :22:24.called Fred, or lifting a heavy metal barrel the whole way round,

:22:25. > :22:28.teamwork was in abundance. It is about taking them out of their

:22:29. > :22:34.comfort zones. I have already seen this morning fear of heights,

:22:35. > :22:39.trepidation going over water. They have equipment to get over there as

:22:40. > :22:43.well. It is working together as a team and communication is vital.

:22:44. > :22:46.After scaling the cargo net, balancing on beams and traversing

:22:47. > :22:50.across water on a rope, the dreaded mud bath was still to come. England

:22:51. > :22:54.have been beaten finalists in the last three competitions so the team

:22:55. > :22:58.are looking to go one better in France this August. The team say

:22:59. > :23:06.it's all about reaching the finish line and achieving your goals. The

:23:07. > :23:11.hardest bit was figuring out how they would get the stuff across on

:23:12. > :23:17.zip wires but as soon as we sorted that out we nailed it. The worst bit

:23:18. > :23:24.was carrying the dummy, I hated him by the end. The best bit was

:23:25. > :23:27.finishing, and winning! To win the World Cup you have to overcome many

:23:28. > :23:43.obstacles. They certainly did that today! A great effort from everyone

:23:44. > :23:47.involved. In Speedway, Poole Pirates made it two wins from two to start

:23:48. > :23:52.the defence of their Elite League title. A maximum 15 points from new

:23:53. > :23:57.captain Macheck Janovski helped them to a 49 to 41 victory over Coventry

:23:58. > :24:04.at Wimborne Road. Next up for the Pirates is a double header against
