Why they've ditched trams with overhead wire there are so many incredible buildings like the town hall that we're standing in front of right now and it's a shame to have their view obscured by wires so the tram technology we learned from European cities that have been doing this before it also is really environmentally friendly to be using battery technology.

A digital memorial to thousands of u.k. Police officers who lost their lives on duty has been launched each day the names and images of people who died on that date will be published on the digital u.k. Police Memorial and the websites launched ahead of a physical memorial which is due to open at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire in 2021 and if we go back a few 100 years when the 1st professional police force was formed 749 more than 4200 officers have died on Judy and the stories of those officers have been compiled for the online memorial by students at Liverpool John Moore was university seems like a great idea we could talk to 3rd year student Jack Prescott who spent the summer interviewing relatives and researching officers who died many years ago Jack afternoon evening to you hi paul hey they're doing Ok so you've uncovered some cover some pretty incredible stories and yeah. We've we've been working together with the u.k. Police project also. Trying to tell these are stories like that never been told before this digital memorial is the 1st of its kind and it really represents a step forward in the whole memorial gatherings for police officers in general took how many of the 4200 officers have you managed to investigate and research. Far too many officers force to investigate on our own and it's going to take many years to for us to cover the ground of all those. Unfortunately the thing that keeps happening every year as we saw in the summer with the Andrew Harper now attends violate. This summer alone we have. The 6th replace of. This is and last week alone we spoke to Gillian McGowan camp whose who was the widow of David we well who was an officer who died in Shepherd's Bush 53 years ago and they attack known as the Shepherd's Bush murders which led to the largest manhunt in British history on obviously 53 years going by is quite a long time but Julian remembers as if it was yesterday What's it been like talking to these relatives I presume that everybody's delighted that this is going to happen to sort of keep the memory alive a feeling it's. So fulfilling talking to these resident these relatives because it gives or as journalism students practice interviewing people who've you know so heard a lot through their lives. Whilst it's hard for them to talk about some of the darkest moments they have a heart it's rewarding for them and it's one for them to pay tribute to and I don't think I truly call the hot until last night when the little chap in the truth had courses in London and many of the family members with that and. I felt so much so much pride at the fact that they were all very touched having talked to us all they want to do is just pay tribute to their family members and how does the Web site tie in with the physical memorial which is going to be no loss in Staffordshire will the Web site the Web site will live on because obviously we're living in the digital age now and there is never really been a full page 2 memorial full of police officers in Britain and it's some that we see them every day and that should be something that should be something that is going to be there when I'm gone in however many years that will take on the ties in one clique to a physical memorial which the families are happy about because they told me it's nice for them to have somewhere to go physically to pay tribute to their family members and obviously the work you've gone on but as well everybody else has been involved in this project judge almost universally. The work at the work has been a man sound to be honest it's hard doing as a student will so fulfilling fills we were so much pride. I can't say in north about how fantastic the people spearheading this project off that he Walt is the chair of the trustees for the project and he is amazing I met him last night for the 1st time and everyone just feels some passion about the project including the students. Well good luck with that. Thank you. He's been helping to compile the digital memorial to thousands of You Can I please . Soul to soul back to life.

We've got an unsettled period of weather heading our way we've got some nice dry weather and plenty of sunshine through much of the day today but the cloud has been thickening out from the west and that's going to bring in a band of rain later on tonight so we could get some hail some thunder from some of the outbreaks are occurring and we could get some wintry mix as well for the South but generally speaking it's going to be quite wet particularly so if you cross the southern half of the region and that's just clipping parts of the West Midlands to the south of the North if you know what I mean the temperatures will fall to or near freezing tonight in under the cloud in the rain and quite a strong wind gusting up to about 40 miles per hour in places it really is going to feel quite nippy and quite nasty but. Tomorrow that band of rain pivots it's moving south eastwards but there's still be some rain through the day. For the north it's looking proud here but generally speaking it's quite a dull day and there's just the chance of catching quite a bit of rain at some point temperatures rising to about 4 or 5 Celsius only so again very cold and that wind will be picking up as I said gusts that around 40 miles per hour in some parts generally speaking around 30 miles per hour and then those winds begin to ease as the area of low pressure which has brought in that rain starts to slip southeast winds on Friday so it's beginning to dry out by then but there's still a good deal of cloud around in just some brief spells of sunshine again quite cold and then through the weekend we've got periods of rain but it's Sunday that's going to be wetter than Saturday nippy one but unsettled but some dry weather at times. Because she wanted I the other side of with Adrian Goldberg My guest this week the burning of all 33 know fully in my 1st book came out. And I was one of those kids who grew up thinking I wanted to be a writer because. It's not 5 humility fakes over you know working class roots it just didn't occur to me that's what you could never crossed my mind I didn't know anyone who was a writer you know you just seemed completely like wanted to be an astronaut or something but the other side of caffeine this Sunday at noon on b.b.c. 95.6 well known Robbins the Christian names are saying you have until 620 you do you are hot why are you there robbing days been mentioned by quite a few people already Mickey Brahmas Grobe amongst the greatest songs ever written for me Frank c. R. That's the suspended sentence tonight extinction rebellion protest group try to get to the top of the Christmas charts I got a record coming out beginning of December some of them recorded with a band called The Jade assembly who are from up north somewhere so this is by the Centers for me frankly the greatest songs ever written are stated to frankly the 2 greatest for big. Brother which the whole. The diversion of Stairway to Heaven from Led Zep from Steve w. M. Followed by your message to warm triple 3 greatest song from a frankly let love speak up itself but the beautiful South says make a whole great I want to listen to that on the way home not that I don't think the songs Bohemian Rhapsody frankly Clinton Walsall would that be in the top 3 for a lot of people somebody to love and Don't Stop Me Now Clint I'm guessing is a fan of Queen we are awaken to the general election campaign still a month to go before polling day campaigning continues Boris Johnson has been to South Yorkshire amongst other places today he's been visiting victims of the floods some residents in the village of Slane 4th told him he had not done enough. When he we've been going to run the project or rather the government is there is a really big hit will you like us to do to whole thing through now I perfectly understand how people feel and obviously we are working very hard we decided last night to send some some of the the troops here that you see in there they're doing a great job but there is a lot more still to be done so Boris Johnson in South Yorkshire the Labor party promising to spend more money than the conservatives on the n.h.s. And Jeremy Coleman becomes prime minister the shadow health secretary John Ashworth saying they'll invest in extra 26000000000 pounds over the next 4 years by recruiting more staff rebuilding crumbling hospitals improving the services the money's going to be raised by higher taxes on what they describe as the super rich and reversal of cuts in corporation tax health spending will increase by 4.3 percent on average a nearly alarming goes in the words of the Nuffield Trust to get most waiting times back on track over time the n.h.s. Will literally be rebuilt under a Labor government. That's John Ashworth speaking a former Conservative Cabinet minister is going to stand as an independent candidate against these all parties David Gork he will run. Southwest city's health for the last 14 years and he's urging voters to support the Lib Dems across the rest of the country the party's leader Joseph Winston says her party will not stand down for him just because he's saying nice things about the need to step in places to make sure that people deterrents to stop breaks there and again are respected David in terms of Philip it was made my understand he still wants to deliberately break that deal and you know I respect that that is if you are not an i.o.c. Want to stop break that which that differs not you for making clear today he won't stand down more of these proxy party candidates in order to get Boris Johnson a better chance of winning the general election he's already agreed not to contest many constituencies currently held by the conservatives he says he won't stand aside in marginal seats held by the opposition parties even though he's claiming the Tories have offered him a bribe the very fact this government thinks they can buy me off with a peerage tells me 2 things I'm not for sale I keep telling them I've got principles I'm not for sale but it tells me this whole system where people get appointed to the house of logs if they fall of political corruption not you for speaking today Downing Street adamant that knowledge of Iraq is not being offered a peerage.

So the biggest We know the biggest compliment there from attending football matches and sports matches generally is fund travel so all of these clubs a lot of them already have some initiatives but we're working with local authorities and with transport providers to try and help and provide good public transport links free travel on match days etc to really encourage people to leave the call home is that the biggest impact that football clubs could have intended reducing their emissions and you've got the 1st summit happening next years right.
