:00:10. > :00:11.A staggering series of lies. for the news where you are.
:00:12. > :00:15.That's how a judge described the actions of a former chairman of
:00:16. > :00:17.the Royal Cornwall Hospitals Trust, who was jailed today
:00:18. > :00:23.Jon Andrews from Totnes earned over ?1 million from his deception,
:00:24. > :00:31.Jon Andrews had the right background and qualifications.
:00:32. > :00:40.Or so it seemed, but he got three senior roles on the back of lies.
:00:41. > :00:42.He spent ten years at St Margaret's Hospice in Taunton.
:00:43. > :00:47.He had exaggerated his experience and made up three university degrees
:00:48. > :00:51.While he claimed to be a Home Office executive officer,
:00:52. > :00:58.Everyone is shocked and saddened to learn about the fraud
:00:59. > :01:01.and the information that was disclosed in court today.
:01:02. > :01:06.There was nothing during his time and tenure here to suggest
:01:07. > :01:13.Andrews had been chairman of the Torbay Care Trust
:01:14. > :01:16.and in 2015, became chairman of the Royal Cornwall hospitals
:01:17. > :01:20.trust, an organisation under serious pressure.
:01:21. > :01:23.There were debts of around ?7 million, mortality rates
:01:24. > :01:27.were higher than expected, it was missing its target
:01:28. > :01:29.of treating 95% of emergency patients within four hours
:01:30. > :01:32.and there was a doubling of the number of ambulances
:01:33. > :01:35.In my experience of large business, on a senior appointment like this
:01:36. > :01:39.we would have looked at the detail very closely indeed,
:01:40. > :01:44.so I am surprised this situation has emerged.
:01:45. > :01:48.From my personal perspective and my involvement with him,
:01:49. > :01:51.there were one or two questions I might have had when he was fairly
:01:52. > :01:56.circumspect in what he said and perhaps now we know why.
:01:57. > :01:59.Today he admitted three counts of fraud.
:02:00. > :02:08.Passing a jail sentence of two years, the judge told Andrews,
:02:09. > :02:10."Your outwardly prestigious life was built on a series
:02:11. > :02:14.He told Jon Andrewes he had received ?1 million, "Money you received
:02:15. > :02:25.And he said he denied other people the positions he got.

:02:49. > :02:53.Earlier, the family's MP raised the matter in the commons.
:02:54. > :02:56.I would ask whether there is any more the department can do to help
:02:57. > :02:59.the families like those here with me today whose son was murdered
:03:00. > :03:04.Would the department work with families to get the support
:03:05. > :03:08.they need to ensure cases like this cannot happen again?
:03:09. > :03:12.None of us in this house, very few of us in this house can
:03:13. > :03:15.ever understand or have to go through what the family had to go
:03:16. > :03:20.through and that is a tragicism all of us would never wish
:03:21. > :03:24.He is right that following the implementation of
:03:25. > :03:26.the rehabilitation act, the process around post-sentencing
:03:27. > :03:30.provision has changed, but I am always willing to look
:03:31. > :03:32.at what more we can learn from the experiences
:03:33. > :03:37.A woman from Penzance has been killed after a collision with a van
:03:38. > :03:40.in the town's Larrigan Road this afternoon.

:03:44. > :03:50.A Ukip MEP for the South West has been accused of hypocrisy and lying
:03:51. > :03:54.over his involvement in a wind farm project.
:03:55. > :03:57.In a television interview three years ago, William Dartmouth had
:03:58. > :03:59.denied knowing that land in Yorkshire he'd given
:04:00. > :04:02.to a relative was being lined up to take wind turbines.
:04:03. > :04:06.But it's now emerged that he'd been personally involved
:04:07. > :04:09.in negotiations over the project for several years beforehand.
:04:10. > :04:14.Ukip is opposed to onshore wind farms.
:04:15. > :04:17.Safety experts are calling for greater awareness of illegal
:04:18. > :04:20.drug use among the south west's fishermen following a number
:04:21. > :04:25.In the last two years, 15% of fishing vessel accidents

:04:37. > :04:41.She capsized off Teignmouth in July 2015 taking with her 34-year-old
:04:42. > :04:44.Shane Hooper and 22-year-old skipper Mike Hill.
:04:45. > :04:47.Mike had followed his dad into the family business.
:04:48. > :04:50.At a very young age, he used to come to sea with me,
:04:51. > :04:53.loved everything about the sea, he was a good fisherman.
:04:54. > :04:57.I think he was probably going to be one of the tops out there.
:04:58. > :05:00.When Shane's body was recovered there was a large quantity
:05:01. > :05:05.Micky believes Michael would never have worked with Shane had he known.
:05:06. > :05:09.Michael would have chucked him over the side.
:05:10. > :05:15.Michael has always said amphetamine is classed as the poor man's drug.
:05:16. > :05:20.Michael would not have allowed Shane on that boat and you know...
:05:21. > :05:23.He definitely would not have allowed him on that boat.
:05:24. > :05:27.Amphetamines can create a sense of alertness and confidence.
:05:28. > :05:30.And they have been increasingly linked to fishing accidents.
:05:31. > :05:34.It is like driving a car, if you take drugs and drive a car,

:06:06. > :06:09.One charity which is working with fishermen to tackle drug abuse
:06:10. > :06:14.Earlier, its superintendent in Newlyn told me why some
:06:15. > :06:18.fishermen could be tempted to take amphetamines.
:06:19. > :06:22.I think the choice of the drug is very significant.
:06:23. > :06:26.Amphetamines are very much about stimulant, about getting on,
:06:27. > :06:30.being able to cope with lack of sleep, tiredness,
:06:31. > :06:34.giving you a sense of euphoria and I think that is something
:06:35. > :06:38.that is very much experienced by fishermen when they go to sea.
:06:39. > :06:42.It's the lack of sleep, the hard physical labour hour after hour,
:06:43. > :06:45.the pains of a body that has been working five days straight
:06:46. > :06:52.I think the amphetamines do tend to help with that.
:06:53. > :06:57.I don't think drug-taking in the fishing industry is any more
:06:58. > :07:01.prevalent than it is in any other part of society.
:07:02. > :07:03.There are those that do and those that don't right
:07:04. > :07:07.But you would think it is the pressures involved
:07:08. > :07:10.in the job entailed in fishing that drive some fishermen
:07:11. > :07:16.I think that would be the biggest single determinant
:07:17. > :07:18.of whether someone would take them or not.
:07:19. > :07:21.It does help you get through what is the hardest job.
:07:22. > :07:24.It has the highest death rate bar none in peace time
:07:25. > :07:27.in British industry, it is 180 times more dangerous
:07:28. > :07:33.It is difficult for anybody who has not been fishing, myself included,
:07:34. > :07:38.to understand what demand it puts an their bodies.
:07:39. > :07:40.Very briefly, what can the Fishermen's Mission try to do
:07:41. > :07:46.I think probably the best way is through education.
:07:47. > :07:50.Explaining to the people who might choose to do this and go to sea
:07:51. > :07:55.and use drugs the possible consequences and how it does
:07:56. > :07:58.make what is a very, very dangerous job in the first

:08:30. > :08:32.The small toys will be put into the pockets of donated coats
:08:33. > :08:36.for children in Syria, Greece and elsewhere.
:08:37. > :08:45.Time for the weather - here's David with the forecast.
:08:46. > :08:53.I cannot promise you 25 degrees and sunshine, but I can promise you
:08:54. > :08:58.something less cold. Temperatures are on the rise this week. It has
:08:59. > :09:04.been pretty chilly over the last three or four days. It is milder,
:09:05. > :09:09.there is some rain in the forecast, it will be breezy but nowhere near
:09:10. > :09:14.as colds. A cold night to come because we have the winds easing,
:09:15. > :09:20.the skies clearing and the chance of some frost but this is the first of
:09:21. > :09:28.milder interludes, this warm front tomorrow. Pretty erratic progress.
:09:29. > :09:32.It will take its time to get to us. Eventually get into parts of
:09:33. > :09:36.Somerset and Dorset. On Wednesday and Thursday, we keep these
:09:37. > :09:41.south-westerly winds and by Friday we are drawing warm air from the far
:09:42. > :09:46.south which means much higher temperatures to end the week. More
:09:47. > :09:52.orange and yellow appearing here as this milder air comes up from the
:09:53. > :09:58.south, so hopefully no frost to look forward to temperatures up to 14
:09:59. > :10:03.degrees. It is cold tonight, there will be a frost in places,
:10:04. > :10:08.particularly across the more eastern parts of Devon, Dorset and Somerset.
:10:09. > :10:13.There could well be a frost to start the day. Milder air further west and
:10:14. > :10:22.most of the rain tomorrow will be across Cornwall. Probably staying
:10:23. > :10:26.largely dry in Dorset, Somerset. Not a bad day here, elsewhere in the
:10:27. > :10:34.rain will win and it will move right across the south-west, the evening.
:10:35. > :10:38.Brisk winds from the west and south-west and temperatures in
:10:39. > :10:44.double figures for Wednesday. The only downside is there is not a huge
:10:45. > :10:49.amount of sunshine but at least we will see temperatures back to 13 or
:10:50. > :10:54.14. That is the news and weather for now. More in BBC breakfast tomorrow
:10:55. > :11:01.morning, but from us, good night. cool, it will be windy at times as
:11:02. > :11:05.well and still rather unsettled with some blustery showers around. That's
:11:06. > :11:06.the London forecast and now for the National forecast, over to Nick
:11:07. > :11:19.Miller. North-west France and Plymouth were
:11:20. > :11:24.miles apart weather-wise. This southern flank in north-west France
:11:25. > :11:28.there was a wind gusts of 120 mph which we just dodged. That area of
:11:29. > :11:32.low pressure continues to move quickly south-eastwards so that by
:11:33. > :11:37.tomorrow it is in Italy on its southern flank, stormy in Sardinia
:11:38. > :11:41.and around it strong winds blowing through south-east France. We've got
:11:42. > :11:44.a little bump in the ice bars with lighter winds, a brief ridge of high
:11:45. > :11:48.pressure, things briefly settled going into tomorrow, overnight there
:11:49. > :11:51.are some showers around moving through western Scotland and
:11:52. > :11:55.north-west England and the Midlands, clearing Wales, one or two in the
:11:56. > :11:57.east, the North Sea tip of high pressure, things briefly settled
:11:58. > :11:59.going into tomorrow, overnight there are some showers around moving
