Series travel troubles. The weather dominating your travel news horrible I'm looking at the cameras Michael the M $25.00 and you just got completely gray skies you've got all of the headlights reflecting off the Rochas is just so much water it really is utterly miserable out and about certainly some extra cash needed in terms of delays well they're not great either I'm afraid clockwise M 25 queuing from almost 9 Leatherhead with a couple of gaps along the way right the way around 18 it surely would anticlockwise as you head from just before the M 40 down to the other side of 11 a church say up to now you've got 9 at Leatherhead between Reigate in the M 23 and a short delay between Dallas and Dartford specifically there is a lane out for flooding clockwise between C. And the 3 M. 23 has a lot. Close with a break down northbound to the right what's between gastric the M 25. It's also slow for the Evan 3 the delay is a both ways to northbound after a breakdown up to the M $25.00 M. For Nicholas eastbound around South westbound mostly between the 3 spare and the M 25 a base weighs between Chizik and Bradford local writes Why is incredibly slow around . Shots and certainly on the 8 to 45 around Leatherhead start Davenant and by Fleet long delays on the 84th. Also causing some nasty keys around great the come on the A 246 and indeed around on the $825.00 the ace 3 is a cross both ways towards the wooden bridge in Guilford including heading from a 31 on the northbound side that the southbound carriageway to is back to at least a 320 that's hard work through Jacob's well Woking an alter sure all the regular keys through the battle to Valley retool some incredibly slow 3 way bridge and Woodson on Thames watch out for today's 3 Reigate in Salford as well the eastbound . Is a bit of a struggle in the rigid eyes around man of oil in Crawley Now if there are problems on the trains at the moment they haven't filtered through to me that doesn't mean to say there aren't any over there won't be some but at the moment it appears things are running wild eyed So we've got more B.B.C. Sorry travel. With your travel updates 080587 want to enforcing this B.B.C. Sorry travel you trust. 30 minutes past 5 if you're out about this afternoon as we head into the evening my thoughts with you because the weather is atrocious and the weather warning remains in force through until 11 o'clock tonight for the whole of sorry north east as well as neighboring parts of London North or cigs are indeed possible Kent. Really awful Flix few hours were just a moment ago. We have from Laura Linney at the A A with some tips on staying safe when driving in these conditions of course we have had relatively speaking several days if not weeks of quite dry conditions so when the rain comes down with such force as we're seeing at the moment of the roads do become quite the greasy and slippery as a result so are things along the leaf taking the time from the a a but what about the trains Well Sullivan Thameslink and Gallic express services or warning of possible disruption for the rest of the day through the evening as well but despite the heavy rain that we're seeing at the moment Roger Perkins who is from Goma tensing runway says actually at the moment it's not looking too bad at the moment the service is running well we're quite pleased with it it's going well but we do have an amber warning with the rain falls of between 50 and 60 millimeters in the worst affected areas of the southeast that could potentially have an effect on our rail services I mean I can tell you that for Thameslink trains coming from Bedford they are now running at a reduced speed through one of the stations to the north of London 2 to some localized flooding there so it's not really having much of an impact but with this severe weather really people do need to keep an eye on the Web sites and just check in advance before they travel or Roger as we head into the evening and later on tonight and also with night to the morning commute is well what is the best website for our listeners to turn to check on National Rail Dacotah U.K. That has all the operators from the U.K. Including our own and their information is very much the most let the latest and most up to date so is Roger Perkins from go via tensing runaway as Roger said thankfully touch wood he's not looking too bad on the trains. At the moment but certainly south and 10 missing and Gallic express services along with other operators are saying that there is possible disruption to services throughout the evening and it's best to check in line at national rial dot co to U.K. National rail dot co dot U.K. You're listening to B.B.C. Sorry Dr 5 with Mike of course well I keep across the weather for the rest of the hour here on B.B.C. Sorry Dr 5 but for now let's just take a response from the down polls and focus in on the world of politics Stay with us because the starting gun for the conservative leadership race has officially been fired today as nominations close just a quarter of America 5 o'clock who were replaced Tories M A several potential prime ministers have been launching their campaigns today but no Porus Johnson has been unusually camera shy I say more from our political reporter George Roberts is like a weird political speed dating operation in Westminster to a journalist plonking themselves among comfortable chairs for one law and then dashing off to the next then the next Yeah the 1st suit if you like of the day vying to be our next prime minister. He was prowling round the stage without notes pinching himself as a leader for the future as the McVeigh is well the one woman he was out launching today actually she said that you use been holding us back and it's time to take control of our destiny Dominic film The president Secretary resigned over the Northern Irish banks are in fact another form of braces actually who also resigned David Davis was on the front row supporting him many people who see as his protege dominant Rob said he's the conviction breaks it's here the brig's It's here that you can rely on and it's a time across London foreign secretary Jeremy Hunt to stage and just had a good start a good day today well too big cabinet piece of come out in his favor recently we've had welcome pensions Thanks Judy. Amber wrote lending her support yesterday and today Defense Secretary Penny Morton made a surprise appearance to introduce Jeremy Hunt is launching people before that with thinking is there a chance that many more to might squeeze in her own bid for Downing Street before the nominations close tonight but no big win for Jeremy Hunt to get the backing of the most senior leave by 2 in the cabinet or course Southwest sorry and pay another a low crime pays Michael Gove is also in the list ALL front runners swirl. Toss about him you know he's just been wrapping up actually another speech without notes peppered with jokes lots of digs at Boris Johnson but questions still being fired at him over of course whether he should quit his bid after he admitted to taking cocaine when he worked as a journalist over 20 years ago which he's apologized for but no he puts on a defiant show in his campaign speech today and his supporters say he's got no intention of standing down actually we had one of his supporters former education sector Nikki Morgan on the airwaves this morning saying look it was 20 years ago people make mistakes in past mistakes shouldn't bar talented people from politics at least he's not hiding from scrutiny which could well be interpreted as a dig towards one Boris Johnson he many say is certainly hiding from scrutiny at the moment we haven't heard from him aside from a few words in the newspapers he hasn't been doing any big splash events like the ones we've seen today not committed to a television debate just yet between all the candidates which everyone else to said is fine some are saying that he's just too busy working the tearooms in Parliament to make sure he definitely has the M.P.'s he needs behind him that the numbers are there but it's not going down well with people saying he's deliberately avoiding scrutiny to ensure his place in the final 2 in terms of what happens now I mean clearly there is a timetable in place Talk us through this there is a timetable in place get ready because there's detail so the final call for nominations the final deadline is. And o'clock tonight we're expecting to hear who's got enough back is to get through to the 1st round of ballots on Thursday busy evening as well and please need to get 8 back is tonight to get to those days balloting rounds when M.P.'s start to whittle down the number of candidates then next week day after day M.P.'s will continue voting for their preferences candidates will be knocked out one by one after the other until we get to the final 2 at the back end of next week then we've got the hustings and a couple of days later as a final to make that pitch is to most importantly the Conservative Party membership who are vote for their favorite so expect the wanted to be announced finally after all this shortly before M.P.'s go off on their summer holiday so we're looking around to Engine Light thanks to our political reporter Georgia robbers' Westminster for the update then as you heard Georgia's say the polls closed 5 o'clock in terms of nominations to be the next Conservative Party leader all the way here on B.B.C. Sorry Dr 5 will be hearing about a shooting star hospice funding difficult to say say due to an increase in demand for their services they simply don't have enough money to me their current demand and also we will focus in on the launch of this year's B.B.C. Sorry community Heroes awards by finding out what the award meant to one of last year's winners how their life has changed over the past 12 months 21 minutes past 5 B.C. Sorry. Horrible weather thank. You also honestly Mike I'm wondering if it's October not June after all the clockwise M $25.00 delays anywhere from $911.00 had right around to 18 it surely would There are a couple of gaps along the way specifically there is a layouts for the flooding that's occurring between. 11 a chat C and 12 at the end 3 is also incredibly slow anticlockwise anywhere from the 4 right the way down to the other side of 11 C. ATS the M 40 then again Acts 9 at night a head start starts between my gauge and the M 23 and just a little slow both ways between guards and Dolphin M 23 northbound in the road what city gas we can the M 25 so the key to go with it expires is slow M 3 busy both ways at the M $25.00 M. For queuing westbound most states the M $25.00 eastbound Spaceways between Chizik and Brant Fed is incredibly slow around Guildford on the A 3 but the A 320 is equally hard work around Jacob's well well King and off shore there are a long way bridge by Fleet and west by Fleet A to full force struggling around. Asia as is the 7 that and the A 3 hour 9 is solid both ways between and the journey ops Chazz in time from the $25.00 on the 84th rate is also solid the journey to full 5 is struggling through by Fleet start to head whether a 24 is very heavy roadworks hold you up at great book come around and it's also slow at hate Epsom and around Reigate with queues building through feel taste and also between fakey to morning westbound on the 86 for public transport appears to be. B.B.C. Sorry travel with your travel updates 80587 want to enforce a B.B.C. Sorry travel you trust 23 minutes past 5 So today is in the official launch of this year's B.B.C. Sorry community heroes or wards will look at a few home and nations in a range of categories we will find out more in the next few minutes and bring in this one a shooting star children's hospice in sorry says it plans to start helping families youngsters have more than a year to live it says it can't cope. With a 38 percent increase in demand less national and local government doubles its contribution to $2000000.00 pounds a year in order to meet running costs when larger Harding is chief executive of the hospice and spoke to B.B.C. Size listen McCabe Well it really means that we changed our model this year and I think we've got a complex story so if I can just briefly tell you what it's all about we've had a very limited amount of government funding in fact the last time we had an increase in government funding was about 2010 and actually that means we got about 650000 pounds as a core grant from N.H.S. England now this year we have seen a slight increase we actually are now getting close to 700000 pounds from N.H.S. England we also get about 300000 pounds from sorry social services who spot purchase specific nights from us for very complex children however all of that amounts to about a 1000000 pounds we need to raise over 10000000 pounds a year to keep going our community is absolutely fantastic and some of our so they're pretty support has certainly helped us rains that 10000000 pounds however we've had to dig into our reserves since 2012 and now we're in a situation where we cannot begin to our reserves any longer so we are limiting our services at least for the short term for those children who are in their last 12 months of life now that's about 50 percent of the children inherently We have been coping with and helping support the families other families we have been getting social rest quite care which means that these families are looking after these very complex children for 24 hours a day they get no breaks we actually allowing them or we have allowed them to have short breaks to be able to do simple things like going to dinner together to go to the cinema we've had to remove that for the time being simply because we cannot afford to do it and you say this is for a short while how long do you envisage having to use a service is what we don't know and this is the. Complexity of this issue the government gave us the best Christmas present but they announced it was going to be $14000000.00 pounds additional money going into children's hospices Now unfortunately that Christmas present didn't last for a long 6 weeks after that they said well actually the $40000000.00 pounds is going to go into children's policy of care throughout the country that means it's going to go into the N.H.S. Big acute hospitals and up it might come to Children's Hospital says but now 6 months further on we still have no idea if that money is going to get to us or how much it's going to be I would also add that this year is difficult for all hospices January this year so the 1st adult hospice close only last week one of my colleagues in a major children's hospice in the center of the country announced that they were going to have to close one of their 3 units most hospices are having to cut back on services simply bec
