Good evening and welcome to Monday's programme. | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
First tonight ` hundreds of bars and clubs in Nottingham will now have to | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
pay a levy of up to ?4,500 to help pay for late`night policing. | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
The City Council passed the measure today, saying it's not right that | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
But owners say it's an unfahr tax and could lead to more violdnce | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
Our chief news reporter Quentin Rayner is at one of | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
First it was Newcastle, now it's Nottingham which has to pay the | :01:29. | :01:42. | |
late`night levy. I'm at Fothergills just by | :01:43. | :01:44. | |
Nottingham Castle. It's a b`r which also serves bistro`style food. | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
From November it faces an EXTRA potential charge | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
because of the levy. We'll be hearing from the owner in a | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
moment, but first this is why it's being imposed in the city. | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
Today on a Saturday night up to 40,000 revellers taxpayers have to | :02:05. | :02:31. | |
pay the by bars the levy wotld play the the charge would be up to ? 500 | :02:32. | :02:37. | |

alcohol premises such as thdatres, cinemas and bingo halls runs a bar | :02:51. | :03:04. | |
in the city centre and is also the levy is an unfair tax on no bars | :03:05. | :03:38. | |

the managing director of welcomed what effect will bd levy | :03:45. | :04:01. | |

You've been getting in touch with us via social media. These are a | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
flavour of your comments: Apparently, almost a third of | :04:48. | :05:19. | |
Nottingham's violent crime takes place in and around the citx | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
centre, it will be interesthng once this makes a difference to that | :05:26. | :05:26. | |
statistic. Rolls Royce is to supply engines for | :05:27. | :05:35. | |
a new Airbus passenger aircraft but it hasn't decided if thd engine | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
will be built in Derby. Rolls Royce says Airbus is to buy | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
the new Trent seven thousand, which will have its first test run next | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
year. The engine will be usdd in the Airbus A`330 neo and is | :05:45. | :05:52. | |
expected to go into service in 2017. It's hoped a decision will be | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
made soon about whether the engine Firefighters in the East Midlands | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
are taking part in eight consecutive days of strike action from today. | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
It's part of a long running dispute over pensions and working | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
conditions. Strike times will vary, but will mostly be from 6am to am | :06:11. | :06:12. | |
and for another two hours bdtween 5 and 7 in the evenings. The | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
government says the industrhal Still to come, the giant floral | :06:17. | :06:32. | |
displays will will be making a big impression in Glasgow. | :06:33. | :06:46. | |
Next, coincidence or conspiracy ` was grass cutting carried ott | :06:47. | :06:48. | |
in parts of Derby to help sdcure local election results? | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
A BBC Freedom of Information request has revealed | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
that grass cutting was carrhed out in four marginal wards in the city, | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
shortly before the election, allegedly to make those Labour`held | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
What could be more innocent than grass verges? Not according to some | :07:00. | :07:17. | |
quarters in Derby. Today on BBC radio Derby the political | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
correspondent was explaining how after the elections claims were put | :07:21. | :07:27. | |
to him that grass verges had then cut before the election in some | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
marginal Labour boards to m`ke them look more attractive. What the wards | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
have in common is that they were held by Labour before the election | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
and were very much wanted to be won by UKIP. While the Conservatives | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
told Chris Doidge that they were unsure anything untoward had taken | :07:48. | :07:55. | |
place, UKIP told us this. UKIP had some target wards. When polhtical | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
parties canvas they realise that support does go in certain ways and | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
it was clear that UKIP was getting significant ward Waring support in | :08:06. | :08:12. | |
two of the wards where this grass cutting took place. We attelpted to | :08:13. | :08:20. | |
contact the Labour Council but without success. But the City | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
Council did sent us this st`tement. We asked voters in Galveston the | :08:25. | :08:44. | |
$64,000 question. Where you influenced by whether the grass had | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
been cut on the verges? No. Not really. I voted UKIP, I thotght it | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
was the best one. Ken Clarke steps down | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
as a Government minister after more than 40 years | :09:03. | :09:04. | |
in front`line politics as D`vid Ken Clarke has gone ` | :09:05. | :09:06. | |
which other Conservative MPs from the East Midlands can dxpect | :09:07. | :09:14. | |
a call from the Prime Minister? Our Political Editor John Hdss is | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
in Downing Street for us tonight. Well, Ken Clarke is one | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
of the so`called political Big Ken Clarke celebrated | :09:25. | :09:26. | |
his 74th birthday the other week. And he dropped a heavy hint | :09:27. | :09:40. | |
at a House of Commons dinner that his Cabinet | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
days may be coming to an end. After the last general election he | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
returned to the Cabinet table when David Cameron appointed him as Lord | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
Chancellor and Justice Secrdtary. In the last reshuffle in 2002, he | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
remained in the Cabinet but without Even David Cameron acknowledges | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
a lack of women in his cabinet. Ashfield's Labour MP Gloria De Piero | :09:57. | :10:20. | |
today criticised the Prime Linister, saying there were more bald men | :10:21. | :10:22. | |
in his cabinet than women. So some of our 2010 intake of female | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
Tories ` Loughborough's Nicky Morgan and Broxtowe's Anna Soubry ` | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
may be hopeful for a call from Nicky Morgan is currently a Treasury | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
minister and was allowed to attend Cabinet meetings when appointed | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
Minister for Women early thhs year. The Loughborough MP is now being | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
widely tipped to get a full Cabinet Could she become Britain's | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
first female Defence Secret`ry? And how's this ` | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
could she replace Ken Clarkd Using that role to be | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
the high profile spokeswoman But it may be Nicky Morgan who set | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
the fastest pace for promothon. Like the Prime Minister, | :10:53. | :10:59. | |
she enjoys her running. We'll start to get the detahls | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
of David Cameron's ministerhal changes tomorrow and discovdr | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
the team that he will take The Chamber of Commerce has recorded | :11:06. | :11:27. | |
the best set of economic indicators for seven years. | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
One company that handles waste and provides materials for the | :11:32. | :11:33. | |
construction industry says their workload has doubled. | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
When the construction industry is booming, so is this Nottingham | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
`based recycling company. They take in lorry loads of waste gendrated by | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
small builders right through to the big names. They are doing 200 | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
vehicle loads a day, double that of 2012. The boom in the construction | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
industry has been fantastic for ours. There is a real confidence in | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
the marketplace. The upturn is reaching many parts of our dconomy. | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
The latest report to guide ts through the peaks and troughs is the | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
quarterly economic survey from the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshhre | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
Chamber of Commerce. 57% of firms said sales were up, 35% said exports | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
were on the rise and more than half were intending to recruit. The best | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
set of indicators recorded hn the seven years they have been recording | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
data. This company takes in waste plasterboard from all parts of the | :12:38. | :12:41. | |

people were killed that now they want more. We want more drivers in | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
the business and no operatives as well. We are looking for | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
approximately 10% more. This company has invested ?200,000 in new | :13:01. | :13:08. | |
containers, saying they can't get them quickly enough. | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
Staying with booming trade, and the first `` in the first of our made in | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
the East Midlands series we meet a company where success is not all | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
shaped. The manners family decided to have a | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
go producing elderflower cordial for a commercial market. | :13:31. | :13:42. | |
Beaver Fruit Farms is on thd verge of moving to a purpose`built | :13:43. | :13:52. | |
factory. This is where it all started, our | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
fruit farm field. This was pick your own and we grew fruit in thdre. Dad | :13:59. | :14:08. | |
hit on the idea of making mtm's home`made elderflower cordi`l and | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
now we have 80 acres of elddrflower is. `` elderflowers. These `re | :14:13. | :14:26. | |
perfect for making the cordhal in. We mix sugar, lemon and elddrflower | :14:27. | :14:35. | |
is and this is what you get. Our biggest export markets `re | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
Japan, America, Canada, but we sell as far`away as career or New | :14:41. | :14:58. | |
Zealand. `` career`macro. `` Korea. This one is going to the Czdch | :14:59. | :15:05. | |
Republic. We have a customer who sell it to Starbucks and other | :15:06. | :15:14. | |
companies in the Czech Republic 30 years ago this company produced | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
500 wattles, this year it is forecast to make 20 million, with | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
plans to expand further. These are the plans for a ?3 million | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
factory which allows us to dxpand production is hugely, two about four | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
times what we are doing now, hopefully up to around 100 lillion | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
bottles in a few years' timd, if we can sell that! It is a huge gamble | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
but it will be great becausd we can put the offices together and be in | :15:51. | :15:52. | |
one place and have a proper headquarters. It is great bdcause it | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
gives us the chance to grow and expand naturally, which is the way | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
to go. Well done, then. Still to come, meet | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
the couple who have been married for 80 years. | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
Roland and Isabel grew up in Leicestershire and married hn 1 34. | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
Now, to a Derbyshire firm that'll be making a big impression | :16:21. | :16:22. | |
at the Commonwealth Games in Scotland over the next few weeks. | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
Plantscape near Ashbourne are in the flowering tubs, | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
But it's on a much larger scale than your average garden centre | :16:31. | :16:43. | |
The Commonwealth games in Glasgow start on July 23rd. If you `re | :16:44. | :16:52. | |
looking at the coverage on television and admiring the floral | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
displays, you have a companx in Derby to thank. These three tiered | :16:57. | :17:04. | |
flowerpots are enormous. Dozens of them will be planted around the | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
street in Glasgow. They are all being driven to Scotland from | :17:10. | :17:16. | |
Derbyshire on fleets of lorries We'll be taking 645 foot lorries up | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
into the centre of Glasgow to deliver the plans you can sde here | :17:21. | :17:30. | |
`` six, 45 foot lorries. Thdre is quite a lot to go up. Other | :17:31. | :17:37. | |
customers normally include local councils, boosting civil prhde, | :17:38. | :17:45. | |
councils and love brightening up the streets, it goes a bit quiet after | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
Christmas, and from May onw`rds we do very well. It is the Comlonwealth | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
games which is keeping his company busy at the moment. Because these | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
tubs are going to Glasgow, they all come complete with a thistld. The | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
weather is also notorious for being changeable north of the border, | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
these will be able to cope. They have a special system where you can | :18:17. | :18:24. | |
put water into the top and ht rolls down into the second tier and into a | :18:25. | :18:30. | |
reservoir at the bottom. Thdy can last seven days without watdring. He | :18:31. | :18:41. | |
didn't quite get the hang of that. We need something to look forward | :18:42. | :18:48. | |
to, now the World Cup is ovdr. Yes, we are looking forward to that. | :18:49. | :18:50. | |
First though, cricket. The Trent Bridge test | :18:51. | :18:53. | |
between England and India ended in a draw, but spectators h`d | :18:54. | :18:55. | |
a lot of fun in the sun, watching an extraordinary game, wherd some | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
of the best batting came from bowlers and some of the top batsmen | :19:00. | :19:01. | |
tried their hands at bowling. You heard of the body`line series, | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
well this was the body`swap test. Like one of those Hollywood movies, | :19:05. | :19:12. | |
where the main characters swap For James Anderson, | :19:13. | :19:14. | |
a bowler in real life, ordinarily, He tried everything, | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
but he only took a single whcket That followed the innings | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
of his life, the highest evdr last All that after the Indians `lso | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
had a century last wicket stand The England captain, | :19:27. | :19:36. | |
wildly celebrating You would have thought he won the | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
game insted of failing with the bat, but in this funny body`swap test, | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
where everything was against the bowlers, batsman Alistair Cook did | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
at least take his first test wicket. Earlier, we saw another Cook, | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
letting This match had no balance, | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
unless you mean Gary Ballance. Another batsman who has nevdr taken | :19:55. | :20:03. | |
a test wicket, who was trying But they could have | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
been off`balance. Lots of fun, but no result, | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
and as Alistair Cook left Trent Bridge last night, was he | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
signing autographs, or was he For BBC East Midlands Today, | :20:17. | :20:19. | |

will see some rain courtesy of this weather front. After this, `nother | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
ridge of high pressure will develop, a similar day tomorrow | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
It'll stay dry throughout the day and there will be spells of | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
sunshine. We are staying on the warm side however. The rain declhnes as | :26:40. | :26:52. | |
it ages its way south. What it will do is keep the temperature hs up. | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
Another muggy night. Tomorrow morning, we will start off dry, | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
quite a lot of clout in the morning, but I am hopeful that cloud will | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
leave as we go through the afternoon. Spells of sunshine, light | :27:09. | :27:14. | |
wind once again. Temperaturds will climb to 22 Celsius. A lovely day | :27:15. | :27:21. | |
tomorrow, warmer still on Wddnesday. Temperatures up to 23 Celsits. So | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
join in the morning and clotd in the afternoon. Temperatures will creep | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
up day by day. By the end of the week, 25 or 26 Celsius. That could | :27:30. | :27:38. | |
trigger some showers. Sounds lovely. Whenever we get hot weather in this | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
country, we get thunderstorls. Goodbye. | :27:43. | :27:54. | |
