Hello All,
Dramatic goings on in Kent today .. And you don't often get to say that. The police are claiming they've carried out their biggest even guns seizure, swooping on a house in Dartford at 6 this morning, arresting a 55 year old man, and making off with hundreds of guns. It's not a straightforward tale.. The man arrested did have a gun license, but police are sure this is a significant victory in the battle on illegal weapons in this country. Ronke's there to explain all.
Hugo Chavez is the president of Venezuela. You may remember there was some controversy when he visited London earlier this year .. Not everyone was thrilled that our mayor was hobnobbing with a man who'd been pretty damning about America and Britain in the past. Well now the friendship that was burgeoning then between Ken and Hugo looks set to be sealed with a goodwill deal. Apparently we're going to advise them on policing and housing - and in return we're going to get some cheap oil for our buses. Sounds .. Well .. A little strange, doesn't it? The Tories certainly think so, and have been grilling Ken during Question Time today. We'll have all the background.
We've a report on the growing drugs horror of speedballing .. we talk to a user of this deadly cocaine and heroine mixture .. And find out just how widespread its use has become...
Cyclists are going to be under scrutiny for wobbly and dangerous riding .... Ben's got his helmet on (controversial in itself these days.. ) and is finding out more ...
We've a fabulous competition if you've got kids who'd like to play football with David Beckham at his new academy ..
And we're talking to that showbiz survivor, Les Dennis, who's career is rocketing back up again with a hit new stage show.
So see you at 6!
Katie and Al.
