The US property consultancy says the least affordable place to live | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
in the world out of nine countries surveyed was Hong Kong, | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
with houses at 18 times the average household income. | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
Second was Sydney with prices at 12 times. | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
Listed tenth most unaffordable place was Bournemouth and Dorset at more | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
than nine times the income, with Plymouth and Devon coming 14th. | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
This survey focuses on the middle of the market - | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
housing affordability for average households. | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
In Devon and Plymouth the average house price is ?215,000, | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
the average household income is just over ?30,000. | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
This means house prices are seven times the average household income. | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
The authors of the report say the answer is to build more houses, | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
something the British Government says it is doing. | :01:51. | :02:00. | |
The woman who once ran NHS services in South Devon employed her husband | :02:01. | :02:03. | |

The union Unison is taking legal action over workers | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
who lost their jobs when the NHS 111 service in Devon was transferred | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
In October the company Vocare were subcontracted by Devon Doctors | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
to take over the service, Unison says their terms | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
and conditions should have been protected and has issued legal | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
proceedings against all three organisations. | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
Our health correspondent Jenny Walrond joins me, | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
Some good jobs with the new provider company Mac but with Unison | :03:13. | :03:37. | |
describes as less favourable terms and conditions. Some got jobs with | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
south-western ambience at Unison says some of them had different | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
terms and conditions. The union claims that should have been | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
protected under employment legislation but talks through the | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
arbitration service Acas failed to reach a resolution on this and there | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
are Unison has issued legal proceedings against the three | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
organisations. It says workers have suffered through no fault of their | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
own. The case is ongoing and Devon Doctors, Vocare and south-west of | :04:09. | :04:09. | |
ambulance at yet to respond. Farmers in Somerset say they're | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
hopeful a new way of tackling rural crime will help | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
protect their livelihoods. Eighteen months ago, | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
140 sheep were stolen from Rob Walrond's farm, | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
costing him ?14,000. Now with the help of a new text | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
message service, police hope The farmers have been | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
asking us for some time. We've had a farm watch | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
system for several years where we communicate with them | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
via text, and we get messages out to them very quickly | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
by text and e-mail. For several years they've been | :04:39. | :04:40. | |
saying to us, we want to come back to you, we want to give | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
you information back. We haven't had the facility for them | :04:44. | :04:45. | |
to do that as quickly, so we launched this text back system | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
on Tuesday, 81819, where the farmers and the rural community can text us | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
with any intelligence There's a warning to bird owners | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
in the South West this lunchtime from the Government's Chief | :04:55. | :05:01. | |
Veterinary Officer, Nigel Gibbens, Some poultry have been spotted | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
outdoors in the region and this Those who let their birds out risk | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
unlimited fines or even, jail. Our Environment Correspondent, | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
Adrian Campbell, reports. Nigel Stevens is very | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
careful about bio-security He has put up the poly tunnel | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
to ensure they can't come into contact with wild birds | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
or their droppings which might Defra introduced strict | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
controls in December - they're still in force but Nigel | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
says they are very confusing. As to whether you should keep them | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
in cages but have a roof properly plasticed over, | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
it's all a bit of guesswork really. We went out and put up | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
a temporary poly tunnel to house ours in which does the job | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
and still gives them You don't have to look far to see | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
there is widespread confusion We filmed these birds | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
a week ago in east Devon. They should have been covered over | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
to protect them from the virus. Their owners told us they have | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
since been advised by trading standards that everyone must comply | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
with the law. The Government's chief | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
veterinary officer agrees. This particular strain isn't | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
a problem for people or for the food chain but it is very severe | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
in birds, especially chickens and turkeys but also potentially | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
ducks and geese causing severe It's not just hens and it's | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
not just in East Devon. Birds which should be undercover can | :06:31. | :06:39. | |
easily be found in the countryside. The owners of these birds told us | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
they needed to be outside But even people like Nigel | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
who are doing the right thing say I don't think I know | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
who is policing it at all. I don't know whether Defra | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
know who is policing it. But Defra insists we all | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
have an obligation to inform Trading Standards where the law | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
is being broken. weather. The photo is a little bit | :07:04. | :07:28. | |
like a rainbow but because the droplets are smaller than in rain in | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
the colours get muted so it looks quite instead of the normal bright | :07:33. | :07:42. | |
colours. It's very exciting. Thank you to Dorset Phantom for that | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
lovely photo. Through this afternoon we have bright weather for most, | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
Dorset still a bit of fog but good sunshine and quite breezy and that | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
is because high pressure is slapping away and continues into tomorrow so | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
brisk cold southerly winds feeling very nippy indeed and that low cloud | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
and for the class Dorset and lifts a bit more. Plenty of sunshine for | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
most through this morning and afternoon and some cloud to the | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
west. A breezy wind especially for western areas with temperatures are | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
doing fairly well and that sunshine. Tonight more cloud coming in | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
bringing a risk of a little patchy rain and drizzle and maybe a few | :08:24. | :08:30. | |
flurries of light snow. Not very much and you may believe in a notice | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
but if you see something a little height that will be what it is. The | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
risk of some nice as well as temperatures drop towards freezing. | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
Tomorrow a cold start with strong south of south-easterly winds for | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
western fringes and we should find skies are brightening up as we head | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
through the day. Some sunny spells emerging but it will feel like a | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
cold day when you factor in the wind the highs of five or 6 degrees will | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
feel law. For the Channel Islands some ice initially and a dry and | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
sunny day with good spells of sunshine but feeling cold and a | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
fresh wind and we see some outbreaks of rain for Friday, Saturday with | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
the risk of Henry Thunder showers but drier and brighter. | :09:13. | :09:20. | |
I'll be back with Victoria Graham for more on that and all the latest | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
news from the South West in Spotlight tonight at 6.30, | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
but from the lunchtime news, have a very good afternoon. | :09:26. | :09:43. | |
Should've seen Hillary's face. She was stood there with Bill. | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
Because she's going to an event to celebrate | :09:47. | :09:53. | |
a job that she didn't get and the person closest to her, to reassure | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
her, to tell her it's going to be OK, | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
is a person who's already had that job. | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
Yeah. She must be thinking, "Where can I go?" | :10:06. | :10:13. | |
It's just pain, but it doesn't feel like pain, | :10:14. | :10:25. | |
it feels much more violent, dark and exciting. | :10:26. | :10:28. |
