Dominic King hears from students protesting in Canterbury and Brighton against increasing tuition fees. Dom also talks to our political reporter Robin Chrystal in Parliament Square and crosses live to the House of Commons for the result of the MPs' vote.

Dom talks to Defence Minister Gerald Howarth MP for Aldershot and Farnborough about BAE job losses in his constituency.

Dom also hears what Kent and East Sussex commuters had to say to managers at Southeastern Railway about the disruption to train services during bad weather.

Drivetime across the South East is a new six-month pilot from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Kent, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Sussex and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Surrey.

For Listen Live on the iPlayer, you will hear the programme with local bulletins for each county. If you listen on the iPlayer on Listen Again, you will hear the whole programme but with Kent news bulletins only.

This pilot is being assessed by the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Trust and the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ will be carrying out audience research to decide whether the pilot continues. Any permanent change would require full Trust approval.
