This is East Midlands Today, with Anne Davies, and me, Dominic Heale. | :00:04. | :00:07. | |
Our top story tonight, the ex- soldier who's been told he's not a | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
housing priority in his own home city. | :00:11. | :00:19. | |
No council house for Dale. Born and raised in Nottingham and with 22 | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
years in the RAF. It's wrong. And you're ever had the audacity to say | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
it to him... I would like to meet them. | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
Also tonight, the leisure activity that has landed a disabled benefits | :00:33. | :00:39. | |
claimant in jail. He had been playing regularly, once a week over | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
an 18-hole golf course. Plus the Government's controversial | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
NHS changes. How will patients notice the difference? | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
And the big day is almost here. The final preparations are being made | :00:53. | :01:03. | |
:01:03. | :01:09. | ||
Good evening. First tonight, homes fit for heroes. For some military | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
veterans, it's nothing but an empty phrase. This evening, we can report | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
on the housing inequalities suffered by servicemen and women | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
when they hang up their uniform for good. A man who was born and raised | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
in Nottingham before embarking on a long career in the military has | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
been told he doesn't have a strong enough connection to the city to | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
qualify for a council house because he's currently living outside the | :01:30. | :01:36. | |
city. But other local councils in the region are giving their | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
returning servicemen a boost up the waiting list. Simon Hare has this | :01:41. | :01:49. | |
exclusive report. Dale Williamson was brought up in | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
his parents' home here in Nottingham. It is a household full | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
of childhood memories. He went on to swap the marching band uniform | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
for a military one. He spent the last 22 years as an intelligence | :02:03. | :02:10. | |
analyst for the RAF, stationed at home and abroad. There has been a | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
promise to consult on changes to the law to put servicemen up the | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
wedding is... Despite warm words from political leaders, he is now | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
struggling to get a council house in his knitting -- native | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
Nottingham. He has been told he does not have a strong enough | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
connection to the local area. has been a huge kick in the teeth | :02:32. | :02:40. | |
to be told I have no association with the city I love. You don't | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
call where you are posted your home because it is only temporary. | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
soldier was given priority by his local house a lot fraud you on his | :02:48. | :02:57. | |
return from Afghanistan. council were spot on, helped me | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
everywhere I could. Otherwise I would have been stuck. On the | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
street. Mansfield District Council has signed a special veteran | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
charter promising help for ex- military personnel. A lot of | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
regiments have been given freedom to the city of Nottingham and I | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
find it kind of ironic that it is OK for a publicity exercise to give | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
a group of individuals the freedom of the city but then not honour | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
that on the back end. I think it speaks volumes. Dale Williamson | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
says he cannot afford private rent in Nottingham and you will soon be | :03:33. | :03:43. | |
:03:43. | :03:46. | ||
moving to Ashfield. -- he will soon be moving. You commit to fighting | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
in other nations around the world but you are forgotten about around | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
the country. Simon is with us now. What response | :03:51. | :04:01. | |
:04:01. | :04:02. | ||
has there been? They say they feel sympathy with Dale Williamson but | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
at the moment they give priority to those who are homeless, those | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
already living the city boundary and those affected by domestic | :04:09. | :04:16. | |
violence. What's the situation elsewhere? It is a real mixed | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
picture. In Derby, they have no a priority for service personnel. In | :04:22. | :04:29. | |
Leicester, they do, and Dale Williamson would be in Band 2, not | :04:29. | :04:37. | |
band 5, as he is in Nottingham. Thank you. | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
A judge has described a benefits fraudster who regularly played golf | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
as a thorough and utter liar and cheat. Nottingham Crown Court heard | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
Robert Cave from Mansfield cheated the public purse out of more than | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
�12,000. Today, he was jailed for four months, as James Roberson | :04:49. | :04:56. | |
reports. Nottingham Crown Court today heard | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
Robert Cave, a former miner, has a genuine degenerative bone | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
collection -- bone disease, but despite an improvement in his | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
condition in recent years, he still claimed he could barely walk. In | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
2009, benefit fraud investigators secretly filmed and at home in | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
Mansfield easily moving heavy fence panels to his car. But they also | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
follow it into this golf course in Nottinghamshire, where he was | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
filled practising on the driving range, apparently without any | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
physical problems, and then playing a whole round of golf on football | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
stop before investigators discovered that not only had he | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
been coming here regularly, but he had achieved a handicap of 15, | :05:39. | :05:49. | |
:05:49. | :05:49. | ||
which is a mark of an accomplished golfer. He had claimed over �6,000 | :05:49. | :05:57. | |
up to 2010. The court was told, he could not have got a handicap of 15 | :05:57. | :06:01. | |
overnight. He must have been playing for some time. I cannot | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
think of worse breaches. I cannot imagine the public annoyance at | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
this man's disgusting behaviour. A clear message was sent to other | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
benefit fraudsters, they said. would be scared if I was doing that | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
and I found out what had happened today and they think it gives a | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
reassuring message to members of the public or on his stun working | :06:22. | :06:32. | |
and wondering what on earth is going on here. -- the public who | :06:32. | :06:39. | |
are honest and working. Still to come, all of last night's | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
goal action, in the sport. Also, the scaffolding is down at | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
Chatsworth House. Renovation work is over at the ancestral seat of | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
the Dukes of Devonshire. Experts say this is the best it's looked | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
for 300 years and we'll take a peek. And all eyes are on Leicester | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
tomorrow, but what will the weather be like for the visit? I will have | :06:57. | :07:04. | |
the details shortly. Next, big changes are on their way | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
that could transform the way health services are run here in the East | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
Midlands. The Government's controversial Health and Social | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
Care Bill will give local GPs greater control over NHS budgets. | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
But our MPs are still divided over whether patients will actually | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
benefit from the changes. From Westminster, here's our political | :07:21. | :07:29. | |
editor, John Hess. So who is best at deciding the | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
spending priorities for local health care? Is it your GP, or, in | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
the case of Derby and Derbyshire, the Primary Care Trust, with its | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
annual budget of �1 billion to surveyed population of one million | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
people. In the future, it will be the GPs who decide but there are | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
critics who say the Government's changes under its Health and Social | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
Care Bill will allow it a much greater role for the private sector | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
in the NHS, and that is a very much at the heart of its long-running | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
political drama. It will be a lot better, because frankly, | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
constituents come to me and say, the only person who understands my | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
medical needs is my GP. They now have the power to commission the | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
services that patients' needs. will those structural changes | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
improve things? I think so. It will make things much smoother and give | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
power to the patient. I think we will get the services people do | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
need. My worry is that this Health Bill will set different parts of | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
the system against one another and it has also been a huge waste of | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
money, this big reorganisation. Billions of extra pounds have been | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
spent on it we should have been going into frontline patient care. | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
This controversial bill is almost writs last parliamentary hurdle but | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
at Westminster tonight, there is a big rally organised and among the | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
speakers, Sue Johnson, a hospital worker from Derby. She is a great | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
geographer who works in the X-ray department at the Royal Derby | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
Hospital. -- she is a radio opera. If things go ahead as we believe, | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
we might see closures and hospitals will not be able to plan for their | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
care because alternative providers will be coming in. Quality. Well, | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
we talk about quality but there is no evidence that competition | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
improves quality. The Primary Care Trust which shape local an edge as | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
funding of being wound down. are setting out their local | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
consortium in anticipation of the new legislation. David Cameron once | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
the GPs very much in the driving seat of the future direction of the | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
NHS and tonight, it looks as though those changes are heading into Top | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
Gear. The job agency Remploy has | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
announced plans to close its Leicester factory. The city site | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
employs 23 people who assemble mechanical products. It's one of 36 | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
factories earmarked for closure after the Government announced it's | :09:58. | :10:06. | |
cutting funding. 1,700 jobs could go in total. However, Remploy says | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
it hopes to keep its Derby operation. | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
More than 1,000 cannabis plants have been found in a disused garage | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
shelter in Nottinghamshire. The bunker is on a former airfield in | :10:18. | :10:24. | |
the village of Whixley. The find is one of two large seized -- seizures | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
in the last month. Eight people have been arrested and | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
Leicestershire and Derbyshire at the start off a regional crackdown | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
on metal theft. Forces across the East Midlands have been working | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
together to tackle the problem. Thieves have stolen lead from train | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
lines and war memorials, as well as churches. A new unit has been set | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
up to deal with the crime specifically. | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
Now, final preparations are being made for the visit of Her Majesty, | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
the Queen to the City of Leicester tomorrow. It is the first stop on | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
her Jubilee tour of the country. She will be accompanied by the Duke | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
of Edinburgh and the Duchess of Cambridge. We go overtook where | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
they are making the finishing touches. Excitement is building | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
ahead of tomorrow. Technicians have been here all days setting up | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
things for the special service. Why is the biz is so important? | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
Leicester has been chosen as the first prize the Queen will come on | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
her tour, arcing 60 years of her reign. It will also be the first | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
official visit of the Dodgers of Cambridge to the East Midlands. So | :11:38. | :11:48. | |
where can you see the action? -- of the Duchess of Cambridge. | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
12:30pm, there will party moves to the cathedral. There is limited | :11:53. | :12:03. | |
:12:03. | :12:06. | ||
space for spectators outside. -- will meet the Mayor of Leicester | :12:06. | :12:16. | |
:12:16. | :12:16. | ||
and go on a walkabout before The Queen will also unveil a plaque | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
eight St Nicholas Place. It is currently being used as a car-park. | :12:21. | :12:28. | |
It will have gardens and places to walk through. Join me again later, | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
when we will have a chat with the Bishop of Leicester. | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
Thank you. Before then, more than a quarter of taxis stop in Derby last | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
month failed on the spot safety checks. Licensing officers | :12:42. | :12:47. | |
inspected 26 vehicles. Eight of them were ordered off the road and | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
two were given warnings. The Czechs are part of a continuing operation | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
between the police and the city council. | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
The council says business waste could be included in some of the | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
worst recent cases of fly-tipping. Trouble was dumped outside a farm | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
in Derby. It was one of three big incidents cleared up by the council | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
in a week. Tyres also found in Long Eaton. | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
A huge operation is underway in the Peak District to spread heather | :13:18. | :13:24. | |
seeds over the moors. It is hoped it will improve water quality in | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
rivers and reduce the risk of flooding. So far, 5,000 bags have | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
been edited -- airlifted to the Derbyshire moors. | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
You are watching BBC Newsline, and a day centre which closed recently | :13:38. | :13:46. | |
after more than 25 years has reopened in a local park. In a | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
host's a group of over 70s more than once a week, hosting games and | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
food. Up with councils and charities | :13:56. | :14:03. | |
being forced to tighten their belts, they send -- centres across the | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
East Midlands are having to close their doors. But this pub has | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
started a day centre of its own. speak to one another and it makes | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
you happy. The staff of very jovial and include you in what they are | :14:18. | :14:25. | |
doing. Very nice indeed. I was a bit dubious at first but now I am | :14:25. | :14:31. | |
chatting as bad as them! So it was nice! The group used to make us a | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
day centre run by the Red Cross but when that closed down after more | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
than two decades, they were left with no way to go. The County | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
Council then approached this pub and ask them if they would provide | :14:43. | :14:52. | |
this centre instead. A few drinks and a few exercises they can do. It | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
just makes them happy and that makes me happy. I would be lost | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
without it because it is the only place I get out to. Other than | :15:00. | :15:06. | |
going to the supermarket or shopping. This is my day out. | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
some way to go. Each day... Otherwise I would be sitting at | :15:12. | :15:19. | |
home on my own. A day here costs �6 but the copses it is doing it to | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
make a difference rather than to make a profit. -- but the pub says. | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
They now want to open it for a third day in the week and the | :15:28. | :15:38. | |
council wants more pubs to follow Before sport, it is the wash up | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
that has cost �15 million. Renovation work at Chatsworth House | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
is complete after years of work. The last of the scaffolding which | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
has cocooned the building for 12 months has come down, Anthony parts | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
have been opened up for the first time. We take a look in the company | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
of the Duke of Devonshire. It is the jewel in the Peak, now | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
with added sparkle. Where there was baffled and tarpaulin, now there is | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
claiming stonework. Chatsworth House has not been seen this way | :16:09. | :16:16. | |
since it was built a 300 years ago. All we needed to do what we do if a | :16:16. | :16:22. | |
few things and clean it. Some bits have had to be carved again. | :16:22. | :16:28. | |
Every generation of the Devonshire family has made their mark. The | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
current Duke is no exception. He has revealed a few secrets. | :16:32. | :16:37. | |
It was not for the visitors, we would not be able to do this. It is | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
just because we get so many visitors as they are so | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
enthusiastic, and their support means we can do this work. | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
But the master plan has not just been about cleaning and repairing | :16:49. | :16:56. | |
the fabric of this Grade 1 listed building. In total, �15 million has | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
been spent in -- spent to open up new rooms. This is not a war, it is | :17:01. | :17:11. | |
:17:11. | :17:11. | ||
a door into way guest bedroom. You see how filthy it is up there. | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
The nasty, black flame. There is the small matter of the | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
east face still to clean. But this house has not stood still in 300 | :17:22. | :17:30. | |
years. The garage will be full of paint | :17:30. | :17:40. | |
:17:40. | :17:41. | ||
cans! It is sport now. Plenty of football action from last | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
night. Certainly not good for Forest or Leicester. Let's start | :17:45. | :17:53. | |
with the cheery news. Derby County Peter Black Bull. -- Derby County | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
beat Blackpool. They conceded in the opening two | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
and equipped -- minutes, letting in Tom Ince. | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
I thought, here we go. But we came back on Saturday and knew we could | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
do it. At the start of the second half, we fully deserved it for | :18:15. | :18:22. | |
stopper Derby Guardian, and feel Robinson's squandered a good chance. | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
-- v Robinson. In the second half, Derby where a different team. Steve | :18:29. | :18:39. | |
:18:39. | :18:39. | ||
Davies scored the equaliser. The goalkeeper was needed again. Derby | :18:39. | :18:47. | |
push hard, and it was Stephen Davies who scored the winner. | :18:47. | :18:54. | |
Pre-performance from him. That retrograde performance. Again, to | :18:54. | :19:04. | |
excellent finishes. Next up, it is Watford and forest. | :19:04. | :19:11. | |
-- Forest. That was the winner of the night. It did not go so well | :19:11. | :19:17. | |
for Leicester City or Nottingham Forest, who both lost. | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
Leicester City's season can be summed up in one word, inconsistent. | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
Things were going to plan at Bristol City when Lloyd Dyer put | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
them ahead. They could not hang on to the lead for long at all. After | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
the break they fell behind. Leicester thought they had rescued | :19:34. | :19:38. | |
a point through Neil Danns, but the home side had other ideas, to leave | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
the Foxes seven points behind the play-offs. | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
Nottingham Forest's recent revival came to a costly end against | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
Doncaster. They fell behind to a scream that. The visitors then | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
doubled their lead, hopes were raised when Dexter Blackstock | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
pulled one back for Forest, but the equaliser would not come, and the | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
beds are now three points off the relegation zone. | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
Notts County looks like they were on course to make it five wins in a | :20:08. | :20:14. | |

Jubilee tour. Let go back to the cathedral and | :22:23. | :22:28. | |
rejoin the Simon Ward. What are they up to now? | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
Rehearsals are still going on at the cathedral. The Bishop of | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
Leicester joins us. How you feeling? | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
We are all very excited. The Queen will never forget this day. She is | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
held in such affection here, and everyone wants to show it. | :22:45. | :22:51. | |
It will be a Christian service, but also multicultural? | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
Yes, our Christian faith leads us to reach out to people of other | :22:55. | :23:00. | |
faiths and people of no faith. This cathedral is common ground, and | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
that all be here for everyone to see tomorrow, as young people read | :23:04. | :23:09. | |

How important is it to be multicultural? | :23:12. | :23:18. | |
It is part of the character of our city, and we did well as somewhere | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
where different people from different cultures come together | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
harmoniously. The Queen wants her kingdom to look like that, I think | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
that is why she has chosen to come here for her first visit. | :23:30. | :23:35. | |

isolated showers. As we go through this evening, there is a chance of | :24:33. | :24:41. | |
one or two showers. On the whole, a dry night. For the rest of us, a | :24:41. | :24:48. | |
