Wayne Moores was killed in a hit and run -

now his family call for drunk drivers to be charged

Accused of trying to assasinate Donald Trump.

The 20-year-old from Surrey imprisoned in America

A couple from Hampshire whose son was killed by a drunk driver say

a consultation about tougher penalties doesn't go far enough.

Motorcyclist Wayne Moores was 28 when he died after a hit and run

The driver was given a six year prison sentence.

The maximum possible penalty for drivers who cause deaths

through dangerous or careless driving under the influence

of drink or drugs is currently 14 years.

But in practice the average sentence given is just under five years.

The Government is considering introducing life sentences

but Wayne Moores' family say all such cases should be

Deeply spiritual, had a huge sense of fun.

Wayne Moore's parents remember a son lost at the age of 28.

He died after being knocked from his motorbike by a drunk

that. -- nothing can prepare a that. -- nothing can prepare a

parent for seeing that. Every day that vision comes in to my mind. I

saw it myself. The driver was given

a six-year sentence driving while under the influence

and served half of that in prison. Wayne's parents feel the current

wording of charges and penalties given don't reflect

the seriousness of road deaths. What message does it

give to the criminal? "Don't worry, you're

just bit careless. No!

It is people, it is lives! Why, when you get in a vehicle

and you drive drunk, and you kill somebody,

why is that not manslaughter? The government is consulting

on whether the maximum sentence for such crimes should be increased

from 14 years to life. Wayne's parents believe that needs

to be backed up by tougher A move they believe would change

attitudes and perhaps save lives. It's too late for us but it is for

other families. Briony, what has the Ministry

of Justice had to say about this? Well we asked the Ministry

of Justice for an interview instead they gave us a statement which says:

"We are determined to make sure those who kill whilst driving under

the influence of alcohol or drugs That is why we are consulting

on plans that will see the maximum sentence for a number of offences

in this area increase No direct answer there

to the question raised by the Moores family over whether these kind

of cases should be treated as manslaughter -

which would be a big legal change. The consultation closes

on the first February - the ministry says it is keen to hear

will be published by May. Four Dorset schoolchildren have

been taken to hospital - over fears they had taken cocaine

but they hadn't actually taken any. A 32-year-old man has been arrested

in connection with the incident. A Southampton man's been shot

dead in a Thai resort. It's reported by the Bangkok Post

that father of two Tony Kenway was killed in the drivers seat

of his red Porsche in the car park The Foreign Office has confirmed

it is in contact with local police. The mother of a man from Surrey

accused of trying to assassinate Donald Trump says she's looking

forward to him coming home so he can 20-year-old Michael Sandford

from Dorking went to a Trump rally There he tried to snatch

a policeman's gun. He later said he wanted

to shoot Mr Trump saying Michael Sandford, who has

Asperger's syndrome, was sentenced to 12 months

in prison, but has been told he'll be released in May

because of his good behaviour. Our reporter David Allard has been

speaking to his mum Lynne and he asked her what her reaction

had been when she was first My heart stopped beating

now just burst into Over the subsequent

months when Michael was in detention, what was

it like as a family? I couldn't even speak

to him for five weeks. Continuing to be so far apart has

been tremendously difficult, too. Ultimately the judge at the

sentencing was sympathetic to his mental health issues

and he was given 12 months. What do you hope will

happen when Michael is I hope he gets to come

home to his loving He will have a lot

of care that he still needs and medication

and support but he has a second chance in life

to go forward and make

something of himself. Southampton play the second-leg

of their League Cup semifinal, Claude Puel's side may be

without captain Virgil van Dijk who was injured

against Leicester on Saturday. They go in to the game

with a 1-0 lead. We are in a situation, of course,

I think it is not sufficient to stay just one goal up.

And it would be important to score. Days of sub-zero weather have led

to long stretches of the Kennet Many narrow boats are trapped

in the ice, unable to move. It's also causing problems

for the Canal and River Trust - which is trying to keep its winter

maintenance and repair These boats are going nowhere any

time soon. While the frozen layer is not especially thick driving forward

in these conditions risks forcing up sheets of ice, potentially damaging

to both boats and the banks. It also hampers efforts by the canal and

River trust to carry out routine repairs like here west of Newbury.

If the ice reaches a certain thickness then it does cause

us problems with moving boats about in it, obviously.

We can recreate a plough wave in front of us, of solid ice,

So it causes problems with moving boats and also because locks

are mostly Grade II listed structures, we have to use

authentic materials, we have to use lime mortar

and you can't lay lime mortar below certain temperatures.

Should've seen Hillary's face. She was stood there with Bill.

Because she's going to an event to celebrate

a job that she didn't get and the person closest to her, to reassure

her, to tell her it's going to be OK,

is a person who's already had that job.

Yeah. She must be thinking, "Where can I go?"

It's just pain, but it doesn't feel like pain,

it feels much more violent, dark and exciting.
