00:27 - Hello, and welcome to Kentonite, live on KMTV.
00:31 I'm Sophia Akin, and here are your top stories
00:34 on Friday the 2nd of February.
00:36 I dread coming home.
00:39 Sitting-born residents say new-build housing development
00:42 is too noisy.
00:43 - Can't even start my own home,
00:45 and sometimes, even when I'm coming home from a flight,
00:47 I could have been awake for nearly 24 hours,
00:49 and I can't even go to sleep because of the noise.
00:52 - It's not enough.
00:53 New report finds pay gap improving at Medway Council,
00:57 but some say more needs to be done.
00:59 - And that's the great thing
01:00 about recording these statistics,
01:01 is you can, year on year, improve.
01:03 - It saves lives.
01:05 Royal Life-Saving Society comes to Medway
01:08 to teach baby CPR.
01:10 - It's very important that parents do come along
01:13 and learn these life-saving skills.
01:16 (upbeat music)
01:25 - A sitting-born flight attendant says
01:27 she's been having to sleep in the hotel
01:29 due to the excessive noise levels
01:31 from a neighboring new-build site.
01:33 49 homes are being built off Lydbrook Close,
01:36 and residents say the building is plagued with issues
01:39 with developers not following planning permission.
01:41 Work is nearing completion, but locals claim
01:44 developers have built them in the wrong place,
01:46 and they're too high.
01:47 Gabriel Morris reports.
01:49 - It's only one development,
01:53 but residents here are calling for greater planning controls.
01:58 There's a demand for new homes across Kent and the country,
02:02 but these locals are angry.
02:03 They say that this build has been a nightmare.
02:07 Construction began on the 49 homes here
02:10 around five years ago,
02:12 but for this flight attendant
02:13 who lives opposite that development,
02:16 she's been having to book hotels to avoid the noise.
02:21 - It's an absolute nightmare.
02:22 Like, it's costing me a fortune,
02:23 sometimes it'll be 90, 100 pounds a night.
02:25 Obviously, I have to stay at my Gatwick.
02:28 Can't even stay at my own home,
02:29 and sometimes even when I'm coming home from a flight,
02:32 I could have been awake for nearly 24 hours,
02:34 and I can't even go to sleep because of the noise.
02:36 I've had this for two and a half years,
02:38 so it's such a struggle, and I dread coming home.
02:41 - Now the development is nearing completion,
02:44 residents, well, they're still not happy.
02:46 Anne has lived in her home since 1978.
02:50 She welcomed the plans at first,
02:52 but she now claims that the houses behind her home
02:55 are too tall and built in the wrong place.
02:59 - Well, they're totally overlooking us now,
03:01 contrary to the local plan,
03:04 which says that you're supposed to consider
03:05 existing neighbors.
03:07 They haven't done that, obviously.
03:09 Well, they won't just see us sitting on the patio.
03:12 I mean, they can look and see us sitting on our sofa,
03:15 watching the television.
03:16 They'll probably be able to look and see
03:18 what we've got on our plates when we're having our lunch.
03:21 - And from the top of this embankment,
03:22 you can really see how tall these buildings are.
03:25 Residents have been told they are 1.8 meters taller
03:29 than they were expected to be on plan.
03:32 A Swell Council spokesperson said
03:34 they are investigating residents' claims,
03:37 and most homes say the buildings themselves
03:39 have not changed in size or height,
03:42 but it's the land level beneath that's changed
03:44 to accommodate vital drainage solutions,
03:47 and they've been built on the sites approved
03:50 in the planning permission.
03:52 It's not clear where new homeowners will be moving in
03:55 and what that will mean for local parking,
03:58 another fear for locals.
04:00 - Looking at the plan, parking is gonna be a major issue.
04:03 One spot per house is not acceptable,
04:07 so it means overspill out into the close,
04:09 which is already overcrowded with cars.
04:13 - Sarah Butler, Director of Development and Sales at Moat,
04:16 said, "We want our new homes to have a positive impact
04:19 "within their communities,
04:20 "so we'll be working closely with residents,
04:22 "local councillors, and the planning committee
04:25 "to address and resolve any concerns."
04:29 Maybe once the dust settles,
04:31 these neighbours will be able to find peace,
04:33 but many have told us they're planning on setting up.
04:37 Gabriel Morris for KMTV in Sittembole.
04:39 - Mother in Shrewd says her daughter was left in hysterics
04:44 after a driver was caught on dash cam
04:46 crashing into her car before speeding off.
04:49 38-year-old Joanna Long was driving along Fulmer Road
04:53 when a red Ford Fiesta allegedly slammed
04:55 into the side of her vehicle
04:57 without stopping to see if she
04:59 and her eight-year-old daughter were injured.
05:01 A Kent Police spokesman said that the person
05:03 who called the police didn't have identification details
05:05 for the vehicle that had left the scene
05:08 and was advised to contact Kent Police online
05:10 to report the incident.
05:12 Now, Medway Council and the Employment Matters Committee
05:15 have published statistics on the gender pay gap
05:18 at the council.
05:19 Figures are better than the UK average,
05:21 according to the Office for National Statistics,
05:23 and the pay gap has been declining over the last five years.
05:26 However, the mean hourly pay rate is still higher for men
05:29 in comparison to women.
05:31 Miriam Bogosa reports.
05:33 - The Employment Matters Committee published
05:35 the initial findings of the report
05:37 on the gender pay gap at Medway Council.
05:40 The council's current workforce gender profile
05:42 is 74.4% female and 25.6% male,
05:46 so a lot more women than men.
05:49 The pay gap has been reduced to the lowest levels
05:51 at Medway Council since records began.
05:53 Year on year, the pay gap has, on average, been in decline.
05:57 As of this year's figures, to be officially published
05:59 on the government website on the 31st of March, 2024,
06:03 the male mean hourly pay rate is 6.91% more
06:07 than their female counterparts.
06:09 The overall national average for the gender pay gap
06:11 for the year 2022 to 2023, according to the ONS, was 14.3%.
06:16 So Medway Council are doing better than the UK on average.
06:21 However, is this good enough?
06:23 - Pay should be equal, definitely.
06:25 It should definitely, they shouldn't,
06:27 I don't think men should get paid more than women.
06:30 - Nothing's stopping women from becoming CEOs of companies,
06:34 politicians, MPs.
06:36 We've had, we were one of the first countries
06:38 to have a female prime minister.
06:39 - I think men and women should get paid the same
06:41 regardless of what job they're doing.
06:42 If they're doing the same role,
06:43 then I think the wage should be the same.
06:45 - The Employment Matters Committee believe
06:47 that Medway Council are making steps in the right direction.
06:50 - So I think we've got something to celebrate here.
06:53 We have a 6.91% gender pay gap
06:57 in comparison to the national 14.3%.
07:01 That's, we are definitely on a downward trajectory.
07:04 - This sentiment is echoed by the opposition.
07:07 - Medway Council have improved.
07:09 They're doing better than the national picture.
07:12 So, you know, that's certainly something to celebrate.
07:15 Of course, we wanna keep on improving.
07:18 There's a flip side of that.
07:19 You know, women are being paid,
07:22 are getting these bonuses more than men.
07:24 So do we need to look at that as well?
07:26 You know, why are men not getting those bonuses?
07:29 - A spokesperson from Medway Council has said,
07:31 "We are continuing to make progress
07:33 "to reduce the gender pay gap in Medway.
07:35 "However, we do recognise there is still
07:37 "more work to be done."
07:39 We spoke to the CEO of an employment law firm
07:41 right here in Medway.
07:42 - When we look at the Equality Act,
07:44 that nobody should be treated unfavourably
07:46 for a protected characteristic.
07:48 And one of those characteristics is gender.
07:50 So what I would say is that people should be looking
07:53 at what they are paying each member of staff,
07:55 and there should be no disparity or unfavourable treatment
07:58 based on that characteristic.
08:00 - There has been progress towards reaching
08:02 gender equality in Medway.
08:04 However, everyone agrees that there is still more
08:06 that needs to be done.
08:07 - Now, Kent County Council is said to be cutting 208 jobs
08:11 from children, young people, and education services.
08:15 Documents seen by the local democracy reporting service
08:18 suggest that 183 people will be made redundant
08:21 at Kent County Council.
08:23 The council said a restructuring of its youth
08:24 and community services will save seven million pounds.
08:28 I'm now joined with Mike Soll, Liberal Democrat
08:30 from Canterbury, and Paul Bartlett, Conservative
08:33 from Ashford, straight off the Kent Politics Show.
08:35 Thanks for sticking around where we were discussing this
08:37 in the Politics Show.
08:38 And Mike, one of your concerns that you were saying
08:41 is that for people in agricultural land,
08:43 if there aren't as many of these services,
08:46 how will they be accessing them?
08:48 But I guess people would argue that the council
08:51 still needs to make cuts, don't they?
08:52 So what do you think they can do instead?
08:54 - It's not a matter of what they can do instead.
08:58 The issue is that local government has been so underfunded
09:02 by national government, and yes, cuts have to be made.
09:06 But these cuts here are just too far,
09:09 and I don't believe that they will improve the service.
09:12 Every one of those employees who will lose their jobs
09:16 have got families and bills to pay.
09:18 There's the issue there.
09:19 And of course, every person that they were seeing
09:20 as part of their job will no longer have access
09:24 to those services from them.
09:26 I don't believe that by having less centres
09:29 for people to visit, we can improve the service.
09:32 And as you were saying, those in the rural areas
09:34 with further to travel, where we haven't got bus services,
09:38 again, many of those bus services no longer running
09:40 because of cuts in previous years,
09:42 they will be people who will not be able to access
09:45 the services that they previously could,
09:47 and I think would be a far worse off county
09:50 because of that.
09:51 - Paul, we're talking about saving seven million pounds,
09:54 which in the grand scheme of things,
09:55 for a big council like Kent County Council,
09:58 we're not really talking too much.
09:59 So is it worth it, considering there are going to be
10:02 potentially losing all these staff?
10:03 Is that seven million pounds worth the loss of its staff?
10:06 - Well, these changes follow recommendations
10:12 that have come out of the DFT,
10:14 along with 11 million pounds of funding from the government
10:18 in order to make these changes happen.
10:20 The findings were in an independent review
10:25 of children's social care in May 2022,
10:30 found that the service provided was fragmented
10:34 and it led to crisis intervention.
10:37 - Is it worth it though, Paul?
10:39 - Well, I mean, yes, what we don't want to do
10:42 is have a service which is not aligned with the DFT guidance.
10:47 So we're following DFT guidance to create family hubs
10:52 to avoid fragmented services,
10:55 which result in crisis intervention.
10:58 So these changes will deliver a better service.
11:00 - Mike, do you think we're going to be seeing
11:04 more councils doing this?
11:04 It's budget month this month.
11:06 We don't have long till the break,
11:07 but is this going to become a common pattern, do you think?
11:10 - Oh, from what I'm hearing from around the country,
11:12 a lot of councils are having to make huge cuts in services
11:16 and increase council tax as well,
11:18 often well beyond what we might be seeing here in Kent.
11:21 I think this is the start of what we know is happening.
11:24 We've already seen many councils go bankrupt.
11:26 Others will follow.
11:27 I don't think we're at that stage yet in Kent,
11:30 but unless there's a massive reform
11:32 of local government finance,
11:34 things are only going to get worse.
11:36 - That's all the time we've got,
11:37 but we had a much more in-depth discussion
11:38 on the politics show,
11:40 and I'm sure Kent County Council will say
11:41 they have to make these cuts somewhere.
11:43 But thank you both for joining us,
11:45 and viewers can watch the full version of the interview
11:48 on our website.
11:49 See you after this very short break.

15:09 - Hello and welcome back to Kentonite live on KMTV.
15:18 Now the procession for the funeral of a man
15:21 from Lower Stoke went through Hoo and Stoke today.
15:24 Liam Graham was found dead in the Netherlands
15:26 five months after he was reported missing.
15:29 The pictures coming up on the screen now
15:31 are from the procession where blue bows and ribbons
15:34 were placed around the village in his memory.
15:36 The 22 year old was last seen walking away from a car
15:40 accident in a video taken in July
15:41 before he was found in the Netherlands.
15:44 His disappearance was said to have shocked the community
15:46 who spent hours looking for Liam at the time.
15:49 His cause of death is unknown and a full inquest
15:51 will be held on the 26th of March.
15:54 Now in football with this year's January transfer window
15:57 finally closed, four players have now officially
15:59 left Gillingham whilst four have also joined the club.
16:03 Key strikers Tom Nicholls and Macaulay Bond
16:05 have departed the first team squad
16:07 while Jorge Hurtado and Josh Andrews
16:09 are both hoping to make their mark as two
16:11 of their replacements.
16:12 It comes as Stephen Clements' side
16:14 are set to host Walsall this weekend.
16:16 Here's our reporter Jack Darkin with a roundup
16:18 of all the moves that happened at Priestfield last month.
16:21 Stephen Clements' side had a productive and busy window
16:24 with four departures and four new arrivals.
16:27 Departing striker Lewis Walker opted to join
16:29 National League side Woken on an 18 month contract.
16:32 This was followed by defender Che Alexander
16:34 leaving the Gilles after agreeing to terminate his contract.
16:37 Macaulay Bond joined League One Cambridge United
16:39 on loan until the end of the season.
16:41 And Gillingham's final departure of the transfer window
16:44 was forward Tom Nicholls who left Priestfield
16:46 for fellow League Two rivals Mansfield Town.
16:48 Here's what Stephen Clements had to say
16:50 about Macaulay Bond's departure.
16:52 - I wish Macaulay all the best.
16:53 He hasn't been, he's been a good professional,
16:56 hasn't caused me any problems at all around the place.
17:00 He's well respected within the group.
17:02 But somebody in my position,
17:04 you have to try and freshen things up in that department.
17:09 And this isn't just Macaulay,
17:11 there's lots of people involved in that department.
17:14 We haven't scored enough goals.
17:15 So it's my job to try and improve that.
17:17 And obviously sometimes a player can be at a club
17:20 and it doesn't actually just work out
17:22 for one reason or another.
17:24 Now, as I say, I've got no ill feeling towards Macaulay.
17:27 I've always gotten well with him.
17:28 And I wish him all the best at his next club.
17:31 - Gillingham's first signing of the window
17:33 was defender Romao Hutton.
17:34 He arrived at Priestfield halfway through
17:36 the transfer window.
17:37 He made his first appearance for the club
17:39 against Forest Green Rovers.
17:41 One of three new strikers who joined the Gilles this window
17:44 is Josh Walker on loan from Burton Albion
17:46 until the end of the season.
17:47 His first start came in a 2-1 defeat to Milton Keynes,
17:50 where he scored on his debut.
17:52 Another striker includes Colombian international
17:54 Jorge Itardo on loan from Watford.
17:57 He was one of two players that joined on deadline day.
17:59 The left-footed number nine will be hoping
18:01 to make an impact on the pitch.
18:03 And finally, the biggest news for Gillingham this window
18:05 comes as Josh Andrews joins the League Two side
18:07 from Birmingham City on a permanent deal.
18:10 The 22-year-old front man spent the first half of the season
18:12 on loan with fellow League Two side Akerton Stanley,
18:15 netting six goals for them.
18:17 Here's what Stephen Clements had to say
18:18 about Gillingham's transfer business earlier this week.
18:21 - Sometimes at football clubs,
18:22 it just doesn't work out for individuals
18:23 and they'll go somewhere else
18:24 and they might do very, very well.
18:26 And that's fine.
18:26 And obviously while I'm in this position here
18:30 as the head coach of this football club,
18:32 it's my job every transfer window
18:33 to try and make the squad and the team better.
18:36 And that's what I've been working hard to do.
18:38 - With 18 games left in the season for Gillingham,
18:40 head coach Stephen Clements will be hoping
18:42 that his new additions will help them clinch promotion
18:45 by the end of the season.
18:46 Jack Darkin for KMTV.
18:47 - Well, there's more sports news
18:50 straight after the break with Invictus Sport,
18:52 but it's time now to take a look at the weather
18:55 over the next few days.
18:57 (upbeat music)
19:00 Let's see the outlook for today.
19:04 Well, it's gonna be a dry evening.
19:06 That rain has left us.
19:08 11 degrees up in Chatham,
19:10 staying dry and about the same tomorrow morning.
19:13 Cloudy across the board, slightly windy as well.
19:16 A little bit of sunshine peeking through the clouds
19:18 for those in Canterbury and Margate in the afternoon.
19:22 And here's the outlook for the rest of the week.
19:24 Some more sunshine creeping through the clouds,
19:26 but that rain's returning on Tuesday.
19:29 (upbeat music)
19:32 Now, a Canterbury dog lover who rescued a young Excel bully
19:41 from poor conditions has ended up
19:43 with a little more than she bargained for
19:44 when the dog turned out to be pregnant.
19:47 The family rescued Brandy in November
19:49 as they just wanted to give her a better life,
19:52 but they were left with a financial headache
19:54 when she gave birth to a litter of 10 pups,
19:56 of which eight survived.
19:58 But due to the Excel bully ban
19:59 that came into force earlier this year,
20:01 they can't sell the dogs
20:02 and can't bring themselves to put them down.
20:05 The family are now hoping the community
20:07 will help them with the cost
20:08 and ongoing bills through a GoFundMe page.
20:11 Now, don't forget, you can keep up to date
20:14 with all your latest stories across Kent
20:16 by looking onto our website, kmtv.co.uk.
20:20 There you'll find all of our latest reports,
20:22 including this one about Sir Michael Palin
20:24 paying a special visit to Kent.
20:26 I'm very glad to be here.
20:28 I should have come here to do my research,
20:30 but I went to Tasmania and the Falklands instead
20:33 'cause it was easier than going
20:34 through the Blackwall Tunnel.
20:36 (laughing)
20:37 His travels have taken him around the world in 80 days,
20:41 pole to pole, even to North Korea and Iraq.
20:44 So the Sir John Franklin pub in Greenhithe
20:47 might not seem to have the same exotic allure
20:50 for Sir Michael Palin,
20:52 but for the globe-trotting broadcaster and author,
20:54 the North Kent town has a special resonance.
20:57 It's a very important part of the story of Erebus,
21:01 which I wrote the book about,
21:02 'cause that was a ship which John Franklin commanded
21:06 and was going to go up to the Northwest Passage,
21:08 and they left from here.
21:11 This was their last port of call,
21:14 and the last time, of course,
21:16 that a lot of the families and colleagues
21:20 would have seen them because they never came back.
21:22 So it's freighted with significance here.
21:25 It was from this spot almost 180 years ago
21:29 that the Franklin Expedition set out on its mission,
21:32 one which, if successful,
21:33 would bring about untold economic and imperial prestige,
21:38 but it ended in tragedy.
21:39 Both ships, the Erebus and the Terror, were lost,
21:42 and all 129 souls on board perished.
21:46 The mystery around the disappearance, though,
21:49 is what has fascinated historians and adventurers
21:52 like Sir Michael to this day.
21:54 It's a detective story, really.
21:56 It's a mystery story.
21:57 What exactly went wrong?
21:59 Why did it go wrong?
22:00 Should they have been in a different place?
22:02 Did they take the right course at a certain time?
22:06 It's all hypothetical,
22:07 but there's always that feeling
22:09 that we'll find some documents somewhere.
22:11 That's the hook of this one, is, you know,
22:14 be the one to solve the mystery
22:19 of what happened to Erebus and Terror.
22:21 Is this some of your robes or something like that?
22:23 The unveiling of a special plaque,
22:25 draped in a Norwegian blue cover, of course,
22:28 acknowledges this voyage and those who were part of it,
22:31 while also seeking to spark a wider public interest
22:34 in its connection to Kentish and British history.
22:38 Greenhithe is, of course, a maritime place
22:40 with a connection to the sea,
22:43 and I hope that people will come here
22:46 and properly appreciate that it has had this connection
22:49 to the outside world,
22:51 and that they will come along and they will see the plaque,
22:54 and they will appreciate the story of the expedition
22:58 and what happened,
23:00 and that they will be better informed as a result of it.
23:05 Sir Michael's set to return to our screens later this year
23:08 with a three-part adventure around Nigeria,
23:12 but the question everyone wants to know is,
23:14 where's left on his bucket list?
23:16 Well, look, I'm 80 now.
23:18 I can't go rushing around the world quite the same way.
23:21 If I can get up the stairs, that's pretty good.
23:24 My curiosity is still very, very strong.
23:27 Where to go next, I just don't know.
23:29 I mean, I'm still tempted.
23:33 You just have to work out, can you do it?
23:35 Will someone pay for it?
23:38 Otherwise, I've just got a lot of holidays,
23:41 but I will keep travelling.
23:43 If there are spelling errors, not much you can do, is there?
23:46 Cameron Tucker, KMTV, in Greenhive.
23:50 And finally tonight,
23:51 parents have gathered in Medway to learn life-saving CPR
23:57 for instances where choking or drowning might occur.
24:00 Royal Life-Saving Society UK are delivering baby CPR classes
24:03 to teach expectant parents and those already with children
24:07 what to do in these scenarios.
24:08 Henry Luck has more.
24:10 An hour and a half.
24:12 That's all it takes to learn techniques
24:14 that could save a baby's life.
24:16 Royal Life-Saving Society UK has set up baby CPR classes
24:21 at Medway Sports Centre,
24:24 aimed towards helping babies between zero and one year of age.
24:29 Its teacher, Donna, has helped around 2,000 people so far.
24:34 It is very important that parents do come along
24:37 and learn these life-saving skills.
24:39 The chances of it happening are really slim.
24:42 However, if you're in that situation,
24:45 you would want to know what to do
24:47 so that you give your baby a chance of survival
24:50 if they stop breathing or if they're choking,
24:54 you know, knowing how to deal with it.
24:57 The sessions involve practising with mannequins
25:00 and cover situations such as drowning, choking
25:04 and when an ambulance should be involved.
25:06 The charity's aim is to reduce accidental drowning
25:09 by 50% in 2026,
25:12 and their 2022 report revealed that 35 children in the UK
25:17 have died to drowning,
25:19 enough to fill up an entire classroom.
25:22 However, the society say that funds are vital
25:26 as each new mannequin cost around £250.
25:30 What I'm holding here is a life-size mannequin
25:34 that the Royal Life-Saving Society UK
25:37 uses for its CPR classes.
25:40 It even does things such as cry
25:42 whenever you perform choking profession techniques correctly.
25:47 Members of the public say the seminars
25:49 have made them ready if an emergency arises.
25:53 I think it just helps us to understand
25:56 what we need to do in the event of an emergency.
25:59 And I think a lot of people would panic
26:01 and this would just give you what you need
26:03 to make the best of the situation.
26:05 Royal Life-Saving Society UK says money donated to them
26:10 will be going towards keeping the classes going
26:13 for the public.
26:15 Henry Luck for KMTV in Medway.
26:18 - Well, that's all we've got time for
26:21 on Kent Tonight this evening.
26:23 But now that it's February, it's almost pancake day.
26:25 That's what I think about when it's February.
26:27 My colleague, Jamie, likes something really strange
26:31 on his pancakes.
26:32 He likes pineapple.
26:33 How strange is that?
26:34 Do tell us what you like on your pancakes
26:36 as I'm sure we will be documenting it here on KMTV.
26:40 But that's all from me.
26:41 Straight after the break is another episode
26:44 of Invictus Sport.
26:45 Enjoy your evening and see you very soon.
26:47 Good night.
