Tomorrow morning great to hear a Good afternoon I'm demagogues here at B.B.C. Radio want to switch an oxygen my own 95.2 S in online and on digital. These B.B.C. Radio walks that radio station. Good afternoon it's now 1 o'clock with the latest B.B.C. News for oxygen his Natalie villany from health minister Norman Lamb has publicly called for the Southern Health Trust to reconsider its decision to create a new role especially for its former chief executive who resigned last week between a Percy had faced calls to resign ahead trusts failure to investigate hundreds of deaths sparked by the preventable death of Oxford teenager Kona Sparrowhawk and past his new role within the organization has meant she's kept her pay and benefits of nearly a quarter of a 1000000 pounds but Norman Lamb says this should not have happened I don't have a difficulty with someone being well paid for a highly responsible job but on this proviso there is accountability with it and if things go wrong you take responsibility for and you step down ultimately but that never happened despite all of the things that went all in this trust the chairman of the trust has defended his decision to create a new role thank you Trina Percy is uniquely placed to stay at Southern Health.

Radio Oxford's Phil Murtha reports for the last 2 years the terror alert level in Britain has been severe meaning an attack is highly likely and even though Thames only police says today's exercise is not due to any particular threat it wants to test the response of the emergency services officers have already been dealing with a marauding terrorist firearms attack scenario Carmel college near Wallingford and today are on a covert surveillance operation in public spaces across the region terms of police says it's made every effort to keep disruption to a minimum however some activity might be seen and heard by the public and the opening ceremony of the Paralympics will be staged in Rio this evening Britain's athletes hope to beat their targets of 121 medals the pathing their performance in 2012 all Russia's athletes have been banned from competing because of a scandal about state organized doping Kathy Critchley Smith from Oxford has taken part in 5 Paralympic Games taking her home gold silver and bronze medals in archery she says opening ceremonies are always very exciting. I would. Say you know. The most you know. B.B.C. Radio Oxford news it's 4 minutes past one Natalie thank you good afternoon oxygen 6 and the radio works live about ecstasy it is a fabulous countryside and buildings just be extremely sophisticated and what a gorgeous afternoon dry dry with some warm sunny spells or other any other kind developing can only it's 21 degrees in the city right now maximum temperatures we're on our way up today to a high of 25 so. Yes 77 Fahrenheit coming up this afternoon I'll speak with actress Linda Robson who is supporting Childhood Cancer Awareness month she lost her 1st Dad She lost 1st her dad a mentor mom to cancer so she knows the devastating effect it can have on people's lives also we'll find out about a new production show the comes to the theater Chipping Norton that mixes comedy with the world of songs and singers and Oxford official walking tours are looking for new tour guides to help showcase the fantastic city of Oxford to visitors have you got what it takes to maybe be an official tour guide for Oxford and in the final half hour in a bizarre move we'll play songs on the radio about playing songs on the radio we think it's a bit like matter and anti-matter So we're just going to keep our fingers crossed but some great songs you haven't heard for years upon our nights when you see. It it's all. These B.B.C. Radio was the radio station 5 past one we start as afternoon with the news that the chairman of the troubled N.H.S. Trust Southern Health has defended creating a new job to allow its chief executive to remain at the organization and keep her pay and benefits of nearly a quarter of a $1000000.00 pounds in an exclusive interview Tim smart revealed the Katrina Percy's new role within the organization was specially created for her as Percy resigned as chief executive last week after months of criticism over trusts failure to investigate hundreds of patient deaths including that of Oxford teenager Connor Sparrowhawk following her resignation our health correspondent David Fenton spoke to the chairman Tim Smart did the new job exist before Katrina took the work needed to be done that's not a yes or no if that new job exist before Katrina took it no. Did you advertise that job so other people could apply know was Katrina the only candidate. She's uniquely qualified for it was she the only candidate Yes So many people that were found like a fix but that is not the case the case is that the over the next few months the work that we've asked a trainer to do needed to be done. In any event as chairman Tim smart or former health minister Norman Lamb has been telling B.B.C. Radio Oxford that the should not have happened I think it's absolute the outrageous I don't have a difficulty with someone being well paid for a highly responsible job but on this proviso that there is accountability with it and that if things go wrong you take responsibility for and and you step down ultimately but that never happened here despite all of the things that went on in this trust and I've worked a lot with Sarah Ryan the mother of Conor Sparrowhawk and the way she and her family were treated by the trust After Qana sparrow hawks death excluded kept at arm's length from the investigation not involved in it at all i Phone was absolutely outrageous it was me as Care Minister that called again on the Health and Safety Executive to investigate whether criminal offenses had been committed that investigation is and he is still dragging on 3 years after his death outrageously and she hasn't taken responsibility for what happened at her trust she's been put into this created job and I just think they're living in a parallel universe I don't think any of your listeners would begin to understand a justification for a job at that salary I don't know what the average wages in in Oxfordshire but this is many times that level for a job specially created that wasn't even being done before. I call publicly on the board of this trust to reconsider this I think it's incumbent upon them to meet specially to listen to the public anger you know mental health services are under enormous strain the N.H.S. Is under impossible pressure that's the. Responsibility we all have a response. To ensure that they get the best deal and this just stinks for my health minister Norman Lamb Well MARK ASPINALL is the former public governor for Oxfordshire at Southern I asked him for his reaction to Katrina Percy being given a new role of the trust I'm staggered. The the N.H.S. Doesn't just appoint people to roles generally they should be advertised there should be open competition and everything that Tim Smart has said in his interview is contrary to that it's a she was the right person for the job and this job needed doing so we've given it to him there are other people out there who will be thinking I could have done that job and I wouldn't want a quarter of a 1000000 pounds to do it should she have left the trust altogether yes quite clearly straightforward than that for my health minister Norman Lamb has told us he'd like the trust to reconsider its decision to create a new role for Katrina PERCY What do you think of that I think that's quite right they should is that likely though do you think. That I think the trust of now entrenched themselves I think they're going to find it difficult to backpedal from where Tim smart left in this morning or in his interview and I think the issue now is going to be that someone at a political level will have to step in and take some decisive action and there's a reluctance to do that because of the whole scandal around Sharon Shoesmith and Baby P. And what happened with her compensation because the minister stepped in at the wrong point and didn't didn't follow a process but equally a process hasn't been followed to give her this job so it's a sort of swings and roundabouts type issue I imagine can trust be restored in Southern Health what would it take I'm very hopeful that under the new interim chief exec who's a clinician she's you know she's a nurse by background the trust can move forward and I think that that's Katrina Percy's leadership was one of the bottles that needed to be learned at the trust and now that it has been from the point of view of her role as chief exec they should be able to move beyond it and I really hope they do very quickly what does this mean in terms of accountability of the trust in the wider N.H.S. . It highlights a glaring hole in terms of accountability it's taken years to get to the point where Katrina person is no longer chief exec and she's still there so actually at which point do we hold those people holding those purse strings and making those decisions accountable for the decisions they've made which have caused misery to some which have caused terror for others which quite quite to be quite fair there are other patients of the trust who've been treated perfectly well it's and we're not saying everybody who's ever encountered southern has been badly treated that's by no means true the staff a very very dedicated but there has to be a point when the person leading is accountable for their leadership and that doesn't seem to have happened here yet again MARK ASPINALL the former public governor for Oxfordshire at Southern on our website today we're got all the latest news sport weather and travel on local life as well as the latest on that ongoing story surrounding the Southern Health N.H.S. Trust we hear about how the rising number of older people living in Oxfordshire could completely change the nature of society according to a new report the number of people aged over 85 living in Oxfordshire could reach 75000 by 2050 compared with just 16000 today in the County's director of Public Health says it's a real game changer for services and means doing nothing is not an option but G.P.'s and campaigners say more funding is needed to cope with increasing pressure on services Meanwhile we hear from parents who've spoken out over their frustration that a school in Killington has been closed indefinitely after problems were discovered with the roof yesterday and on Facebook here from a county council leader who says the latest repair job on Friday wide square in Oxford is caused by drivers not respecting the new road layout all the more a B.B.C.

Now the world's most realistic tsunami simulator is being unveiled in Oxfordshire today at the climate scientists at a jar one for the huge tank will be used to test coastal defenses and see how built up areas cope when hit by giant waves nearly a quarter of a 1000000 people were killed in 2004 by giant waves caused by the earthquake in the Indian Ocean and 5 years ago that tsunami in Japan caused a nuclear meltdown in Fukushima and many thousands more lives were lost what doctor in Chandler joins us on the line now from H.L. Wallingford describe this machine to me how does it work. Danny so what we. Think of a big steel box with an opening at the bottom and we have a vacuum pump that allows a straw out of this box and that draws the water up inside and we then have another file that we can control how much. Water is drawn up inside that valve and also release that water and it's a way of moving the very large volumes of water that we need to generate tsunamis in a relatively small space and it's the control that we have over that. Flow of water that allows the most realistic tsunamis models today to be running out of Arctic so it's a bit like a miniature movie set in a way where they would try and create this what do you have of the other end of the wave machine do you build scale models of beach side resorts. If they don't look very much like like the side resorts but that's what they represent say we try and make things a little bit more generic so that we can try and understand. The physics and the science and the relationships behind. Yes So we've got. Sloping. The symmetry bed to the flame that comes up and then we have a sea wall and then a selection of an array of buildings behind that and we're looking at the forces on the sea wall and then the forces on the buildings behind that when the water goes over the top of the sea wall or if in some of our experiments we have a gap in the sea wall representing a failure in that wall and seeing how how that changes the loads and the forces that are acting on the buildings behind and what are you hoping can be learned from this machine the and we could design tsunami proof towns. Yes this is the short answer but we're probably not going to be able to make all of the buildings in a town completely tsunami proof but if we can make some of those buildings tsunami proof then we can create what's called vertical evacuation structures where people can if articulate to those buildings and get up high enough in a building that we know is going to be strong enough to withstand the tsunami so that's that's one of the aims of the research the other is to try and understand. How sea walls and buildings fail so once we know what the loads are we can use those in structural models and try and understand how the the buildings and seals fail and try and make the buildings as robust as possible we've got wind tunnels for cars and for planes I'm sure I've seen wave simulators before what's so special about this one. So it's it's about the length of the wave so. How long either in time or physically the wavelength of the wave that we're generating So a lot of the existing. Systems are ones that we use as a child wanting food in sort of our more day to day testing of coastal structures and they generate quite short waves and what we're able to do with this generator that's unique is that really long periods. We can recreate a half an hour long tsunami wave scale down. In our facility that takes about 4 minutes so it's a single wave that takes 4 minutes to run. And that's what's special about what we're doing so a single wave for 4 whole minutes it's all serious stuff don't you ever just want to jump in with a boogie board and have or have a surface. Very occasionally it's it's it's quite tempting some of some of the waves that sort of break and things like that are. Quite tempting but we get in the way of the science if we could I mean the results of this like weeks or do you start seeing and getting results almost instantly we start seeing the results straight away so we're working at the minute with colleagues at University College London and so we're partnership with them on a year in research council funded project some of the results from that are advance to be published in a journal paper that's very early results we've got and the rest will come out over the next 2 to see 2 years and hopefully feeding design standards and best practice in industry. We will see the best on one of the warmest most humid days of The View Love it Tina Turner in the best good afternoon it's a Wednesday afternoon a B.B.C. Radio Oxford very warm afternoon as well just feeling. I'm sure some US have been a little bit warmer in the past but it just feels that humid you know what it's like we've got the feeling by now it's going to change in a couple of days' time and it'll come back again anyway right now about 20 minutes ago it was $21.00 degrees in the city Humidity 77 percent clapping in the tropics winds just about 4 miles an hour the rest of the day dry with some warm sunny spells developing of them were got them now although it's 21 degrees now we're on our way up to a high of 25 a very warm afternoon with sunny spells continuing to develop as the cloud thins and breaks at the top temperature $25.00 Celsius $77.00. The cloud continuing to break through the evening to give us some of the end of the day overnight remaining warm and dry again with lengthy clear spells still the past patch of mist forming in locations like a formal reservoir prone locations although less extensive than recently but still feeling quite warm at 15 degrees overnight tonight 59 Fahrenheit may be another nice with all the one.
