Feature race coming on 1st in the weather beginners chase over 3 miles imperial or it was a stunning $25.00 to $1.00 shot prior to the race Meanwhile Max Irons is in the start of 11 for the England Under 21 side this evening they take on the Netherlands at 530 in a friendly fellow canary Ben Godfrey makes the bench and finally in speedway Busta Chapman says he'll have more time for the King's Lynn stars now he stepped down as chairman of British Speedway Chapman spent 4 years as chairman of the b s p a high school for the sport for now Joe will be back with a full bulletin at half past now though John I am a lawyer what's the latest on the roads Yeah we'll start with the a 47 again it's still very busy and both directions as between a fox lie in her current and deer in road in Cosi that's because of an instructor obstruction in the road and is still looking very slow moving there as always in a not nor a city center the usual hot spots and that I won 40 not calming down at all still very busy that's between deer and road roundabout and Newmarket Road roundabout still very busy in both directions there and a Great Yarmouth for runaround about not raising a They're still very busy on all approaches to that but if you do spot anything give us a call 803897321 Alex Dolan's here with the weather are we in for another cold night you know we certainly are and it got very cold last night the coldest night of the season say fast wallowed lowest recorded temperature was minus 5 Celsius in Sandton down and on the Norfolk Suffolk border so it's possible we could record lows of a similar sort of value tonight certainly looking chilly across the county at the moment so there is a risk of a Frost once more and some mist in fog patches as we go through the night a light south easterly wind so temperatures quite widely down to freezing and in towns and cities in out in the countryside they could drop lower so into Wednesday certainly looking like a frosty start to the day but a largely dry day there's a chance of an isolated shower drifting in from the North Sea but most places having a dry day with some good spells of sunshine like south easterly wind. Temperatures making it to around 7 or 8 Celsius that's the forecast I think it was a lot of not much joy actually for motorists because the people were scraping their windscreens earlier when they Yeah I was certainly doing that this morning and yet made it quite late for the school run because I couldn't find my scraper it was certainly quite an effort to get off it always takes us by surprise and I actually Yeah it certainly is there isn't it that cold weather and a sign of things to come although having said that there are signs that things are going to turn mild that as we go through the week say perhaps we might just get a bit of a break from the cold nights by the end of the week I've got my annual question about white Christmas to you but not to. Unleash it on you when you least expect I shall look forward to that and you'll tell me it's totally impossible to predict so far ahead right here yes but I'll ask it nonetheless Thank you Alex It's 9 minutes past 5 and you're trying to radio Norfolk this is the Tuesday evening teatime program. And we'll get back on the election trail now the Labor Party has said sorry to the Chief Constable of Norfolk after they used his picture on a general election leaflets without permission our political reporter Robbie West has been looking at this. Yeah this was a Leaf was delivered to the constituency of no reach self it was part of Clive loosies campaign material and it shows the Chief Constable Simon Bailey along with part of a local newspaper article discussing cuts to the police now the article was from 2015 and there was an interview with the Chief Constable in the eastern Daily Press where he spoke about cuts to policing in Norfolk as a whole now the police chief is his how are they saying that he was disappointed adding that policing is strictly nonparty political. One action of the police taken over this time well not really they referred it to the electoral commission but today they were they told us that the content of election leaflets is really nothing to do with them so today we've heard from the Labor Party on this and they've apologized for using a photo of the Chief Constable without his permission adding that they shared the concerns that were raised in the article the conservative candidate for knowledge self Dr Mike Spencer he said that he was disappointed to see the chief comes the ball was weaponized in this way now there are 5 candidates in total standing in the constituency of Norge self and they're all of I don't see on our website Robbie West thank you on the national campaign trail Nigel Farage says the election campaign is the most boring he's ever taken part in the BRICs it Party leader said the contest has been uninspiring and negative and he's predicting there'll be a low turnout on the 12th of December I cannot think of any campaign like worth but so far if a link to inspire on such an extraordinary scale we've heard all these promises being made by both sides before my impression is that nobody actually believes a thing go word they're being told. The liberal Democrats say they'll increase income tax by a penny in the pound if they win the general election the party says the move would raise $7000000000.00 pounds per year which would be earmarked for the health service the party's leader Jo Swinson says she believes most voters would be willing to pay the extra We're setting at how we would pay for extra investment in our doctors nurses in our hospitals and health services across the country and that's been made worse by the conservatives that yes they scrapped nursing bursaries we've already lost family photos and nurses from other e.u. Countries who can't afford to give us those nurses but we've got picture what it is Meanwhile the Green Party has launched its election manifesto they've got ambitious plans to make whole country cut the whole country carbon neutral by the year 2030 whilst pledging to deliver social justice across Great Britain the heart of the party's manifesto is its green new deal encapsulated in 10 parliamentary bills which it says will be pushed through in the 1st 2 years of a new parliament to tackle the climate emergency the Greens are also committing to a people's vote on the BRICs it deal in which they would campaign to stay in the European Union one of the parties to co-leaders Jonathan Bartley criticized the other political parties for not taking climate change seriously enough. Very planet is ringing the alarm and hitting snooze for another 15 years simply isn't an option everything needs to change so the Green New Deal is an Idea Whose Time Has Come Today we are so proud to put forward a manifesto which puts us on track to d. Carbonized every single sector of the economy by 2030 while delivering social justice across. Illinois. And we're entirely honest it is the most ambitious deal anywhere in the world except no limitations the conservatives say net 0 by 2050 not good enough the Lib Dems say net 0 by 2045 not good enough Labor members said net 0 by 2030 but the party appears to be rowing the boat back not good enough. While the other parties are catching up we're racing ahead into the distance reaching New Horizons where the groundbreakers with the innovators with the originators and the experts with the Green Party and we're ready to remain and transform everything thanks. Jonathan Bartley one of the 2 people who lead the Green Party at their manifesto launch earlier and it goes without saying we'll be reporting on all the manifesto launches as they happen through this campaign. And there's a British election 1st the saving It's the 1st ever one on one debates between the 2 contenders aiming to be prime minister previous television election debates since they started in 2010 have involved other parties but tonight at 8 on i.t.v. It'll be just Boris Johnson versus Jeremy Corbyn will we hear anything substantial in this though or will it all be only hothead Professor Alan Finn listen from the University of East Anglia in orange is part of a project called The Crisis of rhetoric and he's on the line to us now a professor of finance and good evening. Good evening so are you anticipating a tussle or saving something worth watching Well I'm hoping it will be something worth watching I'm not necessarily sure that it will be although I would want to encourage people to watch it I think these things are important and they can potentially be be very valuable I think us citizens we have we have lots of rights but which we also have you might call rhetorical rights just to hear politicians explain what it is they're thinking give us the arguments for why we should support them rather than somebody else and I think it's important to get to see them doing the spontaneously alive not at a press conference that they arranged or a photo opportunity because it is live they haven't got anyone to fall back on if things go wrong we do have an opportunity to get some sense of what these people are like and what they think how important is the elements of gladiatorial combat we see it every Wednesday afternoon in the common so way that's quite structured but this might be less. So are I have mixed feelings about that on the one hand I think making this too much of a spectacle like some kind of rerun of an alley for one fight in the seventy's kind of distracts from the politics of it but on the other hand when we're thinking and debate discussing politics people disagree we have different kinds of opinions and we're not quite sure what's the right way to go about things and having this kind of Dispy played out is part of how human societies have worked out what to do for centuries for many and that's why we have to base in parliament what we have to Bates in legal courts so if we get a chance to properly hear the reasons behind the policies that the politicians are proposing I think that's a great thing my fear is if it just becomes about who was funniest who looked best on t.v. That maybe we're not quite getting the insights we deserve. The fact though that this is just the 2 of the labor against conservative in the 2 people realistically who stand to be prime minister and the other parties are excluded controversially and I know there's a program later in the evening but that has been controversial but do you think this will throw more light on the subject when we would narrowing it down to just the 2 of them. Yeah there are advantages and disadvantages to having just 2 I do think it's unfortunate we don't get to hear perspectives from other party leaders but I do think it's quite good when a debate does come down to 2 different positions so we can clearly see what the differences are and make a judgment for ourselves and I think this will then maybe be an opportunity to get quite into the different kinds of plans each of them are different proposals they want 'd to marry and give us an watching to see how they perform when that when it's just them defending them and defending those beliefs and those arguments are the end for back on so I think it could be quite interesting interesting thing to see you know all sorts of things could happen if they you know they're going to be very careful not to lose their temper which both of them have been known to do in the past in television interviews that go to be careful to recall the facts correctly and have the right arguments and be consistent and we can we can judge all of those things how well they do that as well as what it is that they're saying the thing that people Leclaire lips about though in this particular program is that they're so different the characters the policies are so different for 20 years or longer had the sort of very I am a dime very similar sort of politicians with policies sort of reset interest at the heart and you can't feel that maybe Blair against Hague would have been quite such a good Marshall or maybe this is going to be that's not that's absolutely right that is one of the thing is it is distinct about this particular election that there is clearly a difference between the parties although they're competing in some respects in the same ground in terms of who's going to best support the health service who's going to put more money into and so forth there are very clearly very great differences between them in some. So how they think they could make should develop in the future differences perhaps not as wide as some would like breaks of course but really I think very different kinds of political character are in play here they are both sort of unusual figures within their parties both have a distinctive kind of start a way of thinking about politics both are very different kinds of politician even they've been politicians for most of their professional career we're not one of you from my point of view this is making British politics more interesting than it has been a long time for a long time although sometimes I'd like to be less interested than I am let's be clear on what's actually going on well Professor Finlayson I note your research project is called The Crisis of rhetoric so does that mean that you've got a suspicion that maybe the quality of debate has diminished down the is. That's right yeah that that that that is part of what we found when looking at how much cricket changed over time and how different people were looking at it and part of that was about the decline of occasions when people could see people could see politicians delivering a speech or taking part in a debate some length it turns out you know it was a golden age of these kinds of things but certainly in the forty's and fifty's polls showed then that maybe almost half the population might see a politician deliver a speech and personal hear them deliver a speech in full on the radio now people only really say a few sound bites will snatch is played out on the news program and often in post they say well we don't feel we've got to hear what politicians are actually thinking what they're actually like so I'm pleased to see the return of some opportunity for politicians to present their arguments directly to us and for us to to make a judgment but I'm not sure we're going to necessarily hear some of the grand rhetoric we might associate with the 19th century with Gladstone in disarray Leigh or or from this from the 20th century from church and so for who aren't quite like to see it because I think that actually that kind of ground rhetoric gives us citizens a chance to sit and think for ourselves we're not just him but passively where thinking and judging and reflecting what we hear and make up our own mind and that's one of the action is all about. Well the big match is 8 o'clock tonight. And it's Johnson versus Corbin and it's a head to head leaders debate we've never seen anything quite like this before and it will be interesting to see if the experts afterwards come to some consensus about the victor in very often they say it's too close to call that they we don't get a definite winner. That's right it won't it won't be a basin that we can easily say people will have their strong opinions and parties of the courts will come out to try and make the best case in that sense the fight will continue after the debate is actually going on but the research shows that people who watch these debates and all of it would do watch them they kind of this issue is that at least maybe a 3rd or so might make when it comes to Election Day but also importantly they can push people to go and find a bit more about policy or find out what a politician is actually thinking so I'm going to say that where what happens if we do this correctly democracy is going to win we're all winners Professor Alan Finlayson from the University of East Anglia thank you very much thank you 521 it's radio Norfolk and there's a famous American children story called How the Grinch Stole Christmas unfortunately in down a market someone seems to have taken that idea to heart to artificial Christmas trees worth between them $1700.00 pounds in fact $1700.00 pounds each have both been stolen from outside a garden center in the West Norfolk town Jill Bennett has been to investigate. This is down I'm home and garden next to the a 10 and it was remarkable until the weekend for 2 large illuminated Christmas trees that were there they are no longer there Graham Smart is the manager here just tell me what happened at the weekend sometime over the weekend between 5 o'clock Sunday night and about 7 o'clock Monday morning the 2 large trees were true despite the from the store was stolen. They had to be unbolted in and someone just removed them which was really taking away an impressive display that we had that frontal store have they don't need damage in doing that because you can still see the plants that they were on I've done no real damage British just very disappointing that I've taken something a wife from the store that was really going enjoy Bowl customers and I mean season of goodwill it seems a bit of a mean thing to take I think it's very mean thing to tell you we've done it for the public and to show room spirit of Christmas and it's been taken away from the store did anybody see anything because it might buy the main road as yet we've had no reports of anybody saying anything but we're hoping that with all the pills we put now somebody would have seen something will be out to get the trays back and put them back for the customers the general public all they have any use to anybody without the power supplies and so on that you've got here I'm 45 taking the power supplies with them as well so everything is gone so yes they can be used for displays anywhere wherever like gone and how valuable were they. Value of them was $1749.00 pounds each. It's a loss isn't it for a Christmas tree it's not for a Christmas tree it's a very old men saw they've got numerous lights on them they were brought blue they will multi trying to be read as well so it is a very last product would see. If they offered them all they see them would they be able to recognize some very recognizable like look like they're caught cos the cherry blossom tree so they all recognise Well we've got fights of them which are our Facebook pages and also going online we've had a lot of reaction on Facebook many coming from customers have disappointed by also seen them gone and want him back and very disappointed if the thieves can actually hear us what would you say to them please bring them by and give them back to us and let the public see them and enjoy what they were put there for the 1st place. Well it's sad isn't it Christmas tree theft in down a market and we had Jill Bennett there at the garden center where those rather expensive quite old amental Christmas trees have been pinched from. We got a Grand National winner on the program who was faking I'm right says Today we caught a word with him we'll hear from him very shortly I'm Treadwell 1st though 25 past 5 b.b.c.

This. Was a fantastic sphere is something that can be taken away from me but does it feel like 10 years ago now it seems like only yesterday. To so to be involved in in the in the greatest race of all when Let's let let's go when it was my 1st attempt as was was unbelievably all my wildest dreams and and that is that that now and realize how fortunate I was and then move on from there was 3 years ago you had a bad fall that Banga and that sort of changed your life a little bit it did it did and I just had a bad run of luck and it will come later with a Nazi salute bang Grunty or is not touts full minutes and is out saddles. 6 months and you know my my life of change narratives is a different person. In myself in their own skin. And I'm in. To say it was a is a is a big turnaround for me and this is as a result that led to sort of return of the 18 months ago that's right. You know just the pressures of the insuring the game just to much me and it's something I look back on now I spoke to it's a professional and it's just just burn out effectively put it bluntly I was there I was in a dark place didn't realize and say affects my more homeless my personal life and I'm going to become a recluse themself away and so went to get the ideal the passion back to to ride some official jockey and I went on with colleagues aid Coleman he said. You know what he can write us theanine is a great atmosphere around the arch. And when it's him 1st one was a very sort of said you happy to school if you think that morning or school 6 or 7 and it was in the fall was back in the belly laugh or one young enough is enough the whites could want to have a crack so they are they want to look back in a few years time or 33 years old now I don't want to look back in the late thirty's or think I regret it I think. You know that's what that's what got that the belly tingling again and you know I'm loving being met right in. To do my do best with different outlook on it you know the self pressure is not the be all and the look you know when we're not Rod machines out there doesn't always go Roy. Just a much clearer head only on the industry and as a say you won the Grand National 2000 on you also won the 1st north of national Here was a fight in which you say was probably lost on your head that's right as it was a while ago but memories going back is certainly always loved voting in the stage races that would not favor. Races to ride in. Good memories and ace of the trophy hope. The Grand National winning jockey Liam Treadwell who's back in the saddle was.

Found a heart of people asked couldn't name a type of dementia the video is now available to watch on the charity's You Tube channel. Really technology plays a huge role in the nature of research these days and that's why dimension research only really has taken off over the last 10 or 20 years in comparison for example to cancer research which we always say is 30 to 40 years ahead of us. The voice you heard on the film is Professor Michael Hornberger who's from the University of East Anglia in orange and he's been telling more to our reporter Paul Mosley dimension is of course an umbrella term for many different types of diseases and it's a bit like cancer when you have many different types of diseases under that term and 4 dimensions pretty much the same if people usually talk about dementia it's very generic or they mean Alzheimer's disease which is the most common form of dementia. So how does it differ in people because most people as you say do you think it's just one kind of a particular version you know exactly. They're very large differences between the different types of dementia they've really sometimes different types of diseases so what happens in the brain we have different proteins and for the different dimensions these proteins they basically start accumulating clumping together and become toxic to the nerve cells in a different dimension types usually they have different proteins involved and we don't know yet why that's the case but the most common form is Alzheimer's Disease which is around 60 to 70 percent of dementia and then you have various other types of dementia does it matter that much if the average person in the street doesn't know that much it actually matters a lot in particular for the 2nd most common form of dementia which is vascular dementia and vascular dementia is a bit different to the other types of dementia so it's really mostly caused by your cardiovascular health so what I mean with that is what we see in vascular major is that people have what we call mini strokes in the brain so these are not large strokes where you usually have symptoms on the outside but they're really mini strokes and they can sometimes accelerate this dementia process now why is that important you might ask and the critical thing is we know how to treat cardiovascular events such as these mini strokes quite well so if you can identify this much earlier you can actually reduce your risk of developing dementia by up to 30 percent and you're in a new film looking at the impact of vascular dementia has on the brain. Exactly we know really that with the current treatments for example for our heart so we always say what's good for the heart is good for the brain and it's in particularly true for vascular dementia so you can really change a lot so with existing medication for your cardiovascular health which you can discuss with your g.p. But also with lifestyle changes really such as particular physical activity food and sleep you can actually reduce your risk of dementia quite significantly as there is vascular a particular area that you are focused on an island. It's one of the types of dimensions we're definitely focused on because you can make such a big difference to people's lives and because we know what already works in terms of treatment it's a really important aspect for us for other types of dementia treatments are really really limited at the moment but for vascular dementia we know in fact what works and so it's one of our main research focuses here. Professor Michael Holmes Nora's scientists speaking to Paul mostly And you can see his part in the video on You Tube which is being put together and he's out now by out Simon's research u.k. The big national charity 20 to 6 the time now what's happening on the roads b.b.c. Radio Norfolk travel a question we should pose to John I'm a lawyer. Thank you. 47 is still very slow moving in both directions between Fox Lane Hawker in and road in Cosi and that's because of the obstruction in the road and it's still looking slow moving they're moving into noise he said at well the 140 is still very slow moving that's between their road roundabout and the roundabout for them and that's because of road works there and a lane closure so that's looking like it's getting busier as we move into rush hour and moving on to the trains Greater Anglia reporting delays of up to 15 minutes from knowledge that's because emergency services updating with an incident that if you spot anything give us a call. 800. 803897321 I don't have a lot of. Time money hand joining us from Love world like an orange to saving we have Natalie moon Good evening Natalie good evening Maggie nor the politician standing in the general election a jockeying for position with taxpaying part of a lot of the policies but I thought maybe we ought to ask Natalie. Just how much tax do we pay in this country because it's not immediately obvious is it it's not really you know the amount of money the u.k. Government collects through taxes is a historical highlevel at the moment the total amount of money that the country receives in taxes is at its highest level since $940.00 s. Compared with the European countries the u.k. Stands out as relatively light in taxation when it comes to middle earners and the rates far higher and is closer to those seen elsewhere in Europe looking at how how this Rives arises the taxes many of us the most where all of our income tax national insurance contributions and the 80 count for more than 70 percent of the total government income which is quite a large amount an example is an employee and in $28000.00 pounds will pay nearly $6000.00 in income tax and National Insurance and on top of this the employer pay nearly 3000 pounds an employee's contributions so it's quite a large chunk there as a result of things and I like a stamp to see that as a little pet hate of mine of the things that are taxes that are called taxes you mentioned National Insurance just call it a tax because that's what it is absolutely yes I think careful choices will need to be made with the politicians and it's likely they will need to raise taxes in future if they want to maintain the public services but how we raise tax will be just as important as how much we raise my way how to stop people avoiding it altogether that's another issue is now moving on massively Easyjet have just relaunched the package holiday business for a while they went flight certainly didn't I Yes that's right. They are looking to fill the gap in the industry left by Thomas Cook's demand is there really are this year about 20000000 people fly. With easyjet to Europe. But only 500000 accommodation through it so they're looking to become the world's 1st major net 0 carbon airline by offsetting carbon emissions this is the way they're going to attract new customers they hope they're going to have to plant a lot of trees on the his presumably that's the way they do it it is him foreign mental campaign is skeptical of this claim as the real value of offsetting schemes and planting trees are open to question. And just finally Natalie seems the way the big financial institutions make their decisions about who to lend to and how much to lend the way they do that is changing isn't it yes. Apparently the Apple credit card has been accused of being biased in sexist in its approach to assessing credit risk when setting the lending limits for its credit card in reality they aren't allowed to ask whether an applicant is male or female but it's actually based on historical data and perhaps the programmers who employ the data may be unintentionally he's biased but they're usually based on things such as having mobile phone contract or where you rent a high or previous financial credit that you've had but unfortunately there's been a case this highlighted where has been rife had very similar income levels and the husband was granted a credit limit 20 times higher than his wife. And this all comes down to computers making the decision these very complicated programs the work they spew out an answer and the very poor people in this case Apple credit card are just the by the decision it is not down to a human being so much now no it isn't it isn't and it is algorithms them. The decisions and the lenders are to leave it to you always to disclose why they've made that decision very visible is that well I'm sure that'll be something that becomes an even bigger talking point when more of the companies do it as well Natalie in the meantime we're both here as human beings aren't we that we're not computer programs but maybe one day we'll be sitting at home with a cup of tea listening as a computer does the business you never know you. Have here is a long way off Natalie moon from level Black thank you thank you the Footsie 100 it closed up 16 points today to finish trading 173238 pound buys you one dollar 26 or one euro 14 making a euro worth 88 pence. If you've been driving past the walks in King's Lynn earlier you'll have seem a little group a very small children having a great time planting purple Crocus is in the grass it was all part of the Rotary Club campaign to eradicate polio worldwide and purple is the color adopted by their campaign the bulk planting is to raise awareness of the project and to get children involved with the walks the big park in the middle of kings lane Joe brownies went to see how they were getting on. That is really it because that would put the cause on the tennis. And then you get a time that. We get to take that one good oh give us a more you know great. Hello my name is Allie thaw and I work at King's a nursery school and today with come into the pot to see Bowl you're right by the park so it's going to be quite fun to watch all these plants growing is now absolutely so every day we come in look after you know see the progress of the actually growing the children will be able to come out and hopefully have a calf for the plants as well because often you know if the children the Partly don't always care for the plants but maybe if they've seen and if you put them in the ground themselves they would have more Medicaid are full of them and more respect for them so they don't try and pull them up and enjoy a futile they going to look at you enjoy how beautiful they get in that's a nearly every day I this is I come into the park every day after it's come to work and it's an absolute pleasure it really is one of the children here and tell me what you've been doing anything that. You've been planting you could put that what have you got in my apple. And she know what kind of they're going to be when they grow up and. Go They have really it's well done that's all I need. To get back oh just like those of you oh did you know you were playing in the movie you see one of the fills us throwing him in the air and enjoying the autumn leaves Yeah I'm Steve Roberts they are present working on Rotary Club and today we are planting Crocus is in the walks in King's Lynn the purple crocuses and the reason the purple is because all the children around the world are good I'm an artist because when there have been eyes to like they get a purple mark on the on the finger called the purple pinky and it just symbolizes trying to eradicate polio for the world the rotary have been working on Mars as a project internationally for many years something yes we've been working on the. Globally as a rogue organization not in 85 I move him and I was so far 2400000000 children how important do you think to involve children here in planting and how big a symbol for it helps to go to the young children involved but they realize that the problems that go right across the world we don't have any money coaches in England but it just warms up the world so you can see what other children have been face and the menorahs Eisen program comes quite important not just for programs for all of the other question as well it is within living memory that polio affected people here has referred to a lot of people there an irony 200000 cases throughout the world some areas we were unable to get into unfortunately but we are trying something there's a rock on the stand and some places in the Congo we're not able to get into but we are still trying to get to those or I'm clear terms that operations manager probably have to suffice for grounds maintenance so I was not out of a typhus and cold planting and protection of the Rotary Club for the purpose of polio campaign we wanted to expand the Bo plant that was on the water to us and I did options to to get things in nursery schools involved and that the children just outside the gate to take it might be to get out here and to get learning about some plants and have promptings and hasn't got things which I think of the idea that is that involving such little children and in doing this I think is great for them from a young age that the younger the better. To learn early on about the value of plants what it means to us to grow to grow their own food. You know it's something we type of promoting the role and if we can help you know this is going to involve mall because it's on their doorstep we have other schools that are interested in getting involved with politics game so yeah we're trying to push as much as we can. Claire Tom sets the park manager at the walk sinkings lane speaking to Jill Bennett's with those youngsters from King's Lynn scolding such a fine job of planting out the crises. 10 to 6 now you're listening to radio Norfolk. In amongst the general election campaign political cartoons can provide some comic relief over centuries satirical cartoonists have been at times very vicious haven't they to Britain's ruling class this week an exhibition reveals that King George the 4th who died in 830 used to buy cartoons of himself though he was often portrayed as a drunken buffoon Caroline Wyatt has been along to the Cartoon Museum in London and I can break the ice jam the gouging museum politicians love to become familiar faces when you return to do ride in Britain the 1st cartoons major road Walpole the prime minister be probs a train to a news and the most famous country of him because he controlled everything with a big bare bottom over the gate of treasure you had to kick his ass to get on we did it because the lack of censorship I think go to me is an essential safety valve for any country because when you can love George the 3rd and the Prince Regent you don't cut off the heads in front of the cut off the heads that tends to discourage the art forms. For the Jennings and I'm a cartoonist at work cross Fleet Street but mainly have been working for The Guardian . I start very early and I have to find a met her I have to find an image. Briggs's is a gift that keeps on giving the incompetence the deceit it's all that I really enjoy doing a really great big fat juicy caricature that's what I really like doing I think it can really pick is the posture that a politician is taking I think it can really undermine and I just enjoy lampooning and some people easier to draw as a caricature than others yes having said that a lot of politicians not actually present themselves as such caricature as in themselves that actually there's a risk in doing them because you're promoting that brand especially in the case of Boris and Trump they were their personalities on their sleeve so it's quite dangerous actually to caricature that because you really are propping them up the vanity is divine a cartoon with a relief smile and possibly a lot of this is the wrong laughter in politics and. I think this is a golden age there are some great characters Peter Brock is one time there's de Belle there's more to Russell there's a number of them and they're very vivid right it was been a field day for the country. A lot of. Watercolor paper my name is Peter Brooks I am a political cartoonist on the times the beauty of the profession is being given in my case half a page in the paper to sound off about something you feel strongly about and what should I think if the curse or a blessing has bricks I mean how do you feel about bricks what's been happening I'm going to bind about it really I've been a sort of single issue costliness now for 3 years whereas at the start of the whole process I thought people are going to get very fed up with me banging on about bricks all the time I do find it fascinating of course I do and I know what I feel about it I'm hard and fast Rumania breaks it keeps getting in the way it's there with us this is just the beginning and then it's going to go on for years to come what I'm finding very distracting as we're talking is the amazing cartoons on the wall the one that I particularly remember Boris Johnson as a Playboy bunny boy but that was when the Playboy owner died the point about it is news is made one day by something like this who have seen it dies and therefore you put pursue together and he does make a particularly revolting Bunny if you like politicians I don't think all politicians are evil I don't think all politicians are on the make I do think that is terribly wise to take a very skeptical view but the end of the day it's only politicians who can actually create policies and make improvements to the country politics just were just news no doubt about it it was like bricks it every small bridge was going to be easy it's a highly complicated matter there's not taken 3 years I think we do really well I cite you I'm a constitutional brick to tear I want us to make government more. Foreign countries . Well I'm very fortunate I'm not trying this out Turkey or Syria or places like that and I see myself as being somebody who whatever flavor of government. You give me a kicking to the other way of looking at it is political cartoonists are really like the slave who is hired to stand on a chariot at the back of the triumphant general whispering into his ear Remember you are mortal remember your mortal he was hired to say this all the way in this progress through Rome and that's a way of saying tell politicians all the time that they're just human beings and they're just the same as the rest of us Peter Brook of the times and an 18th century pioneering political cartoonist came from Norfolk Georgetown's and he was one of the very 1st he took aim at the gentry which is curious because he was one of them a notebook of his cartoons has just been on Earth because his ancestral home rain a whole near Fakenham and Lady towns and will be here on Mondays program to tell us about the discovery now 4 minutes to 6 feet d.c. Radio Norfolk travel Here's John I hear I was 7847 and hauling in both directions is very slow moving that's because the obstruction there that's not so road.

Cup which I haven't come out on the best form but it's brilliant it's getting more exposure and it's really capturing the imagination and the links with the North city developed recently and it be interesting to find out more from them directly and I remember one of their predecessors I don't think it was called marriage for the women's all.
