    BBC Radio Jersey

    Jersey's firefighters have overwhelmingly rejected a pay offer from the States.

    The Fire and Rescue Service Association says 84% of its members took part in the poll, with each person turning down the three-year deal.

    It adds the pay dispute will now be taken to a two-year arbitration process for the 2018 and 2019 offers.

    Jersey fire crews stayed at a St Helier pizza restaurant for most of Monday evening to dampen down hot spots after a large blaze.

    Pizzeria Romana in York Street was destroyed by the fire, which started just after 14:00.

  5. Football: More than 1,000 fans at Guernsey-Greenwich draw

    BBC Radio Guernsey

    More than 1,000 footy fans were in attendance this weekend as Guernsey FC picked up a 1-1 draw against Greenwich Borough.

    Only one team will be relegated from the Isthmian Sout East division after the folding of Thamesmead Town earlier in the season.

    It's now a straight fight against Greenwich for survival, with both teams level on 29 points, but with Guernsey having played one fewer game.

    GFC's Communications Manager Nick Legg said more people would come to the stands when they brought in some wins "to join the core fan base who have helped us through some tough times".

    It's still unclear why the president of Guernsey's planning authority resigned from the role.

    A representative from the Bailiff's office confirmed it received a resignation letter from Deputy John Gollop.

    John Gollop

    Deputy Gollop has led the Development and Planning Authority since the start of the States term in 2016.

    Vice-President Dawn Tindall said it was "no surprise" to her but she's sad to see him go because he was "a fantastic president who put his heart and soul into the job".

    The BBC has made repeated attempts to contact Deputy Gollop but is still awaiting a response.

    BBC News Online

    Members of a Jersey teachers union will strike for eight days in their ongoing pay dispute with the States.

    The National Education Union wants members in all primary and secondary States schools to walk out over four weeks in May.

    Previous strikes

    The union says the board which sets civil servants pay isn't budging - and teachers effectively have a pay cut of 3.5%.

    Members who teach Year 11 and 13 are not expected to strike so there is no disruption for pupils' preparation for exams.

    The States Employment Board said it's "extremely disappointing", and has urged teachers to reconsider their action.
