significant increase in violence towards them. A new group in the | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
town called Taxis for Change say it is getting so bad that it could lead | :00:20. | :00:28. | |
to a shortage of night time drivers. Roy has been a Taxi Driver for 13 | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
years. He says more recently violence has increased. This month | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
he was the victim of an attempted robbery by a. You get people who do | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
a runner. That was the first thing going through my mind. Then I | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
realised it was more than that. I was a key. A colleague of mine came | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
far worse off. Ended up in hospital as a result. I believe we are easy | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
target and are very vulnerable. Police are urging drivers not to | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
pick up people if they think they look suspicious. Groups of people | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
will wake till they get to the destination and they will rob their | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
takings. We see more of that at weekends. Nursing to taxi drivers, | :01:18. | :01:21. | |

stage where people are going to stop going out at my. | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
Right now only drives during the day. | :01:56. | :02:01. | |

says she was honoured to lead out Team GB at the closing ceremony of | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
the Winter Paralympics in Sochi this afternoon. It follows a hugely | :02:23. | :02:25. | |

medals. The most successful British woman in | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
the history of the Winter Paralympics leads out Team GB during | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
today's closing ceremony in Sochi. Four medals in four separate events | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
was enough for Lincolnshire's Jade Etherington and her guide Caroline | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
Powell to break a record that has stood since 1984. And it could have | :02:40. | :02:47. | |
been more. Illness prevented Jade from competing in her last race, the | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
Giant Slalom, this morning. On Twitter she said she was gutted, but | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
that soon turned to joy when she revealed she had been chosen as the | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
Team GB flagbearer. She said she was honoured to have been selected and | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
hoping she would be well enough. A proud moment for her families and | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
supporters back home. And Jade is due to arrive back in | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
the UK tomorrow. Parts of the A158 in Lincolnshire | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
have been closed in both directions for most of the afternoon because of | :03:17. | :03:20. | |

East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire MPs are urging the Chancellor to invest | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
in the region, ahead of Wednesday's Budget. Many are hoping George | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
Osborne will give the go`ahead to the electrification of the Hull to | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
Selby rail line. MPs from all sides say families in our area need a | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
helping hand from the government. Obviously we want to see the | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
electrification of the real`life. We have some local asks as well as | :03:52. | :04:01. | |
national ones. The big wish list would be killed more social and | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
council housing. That stimulates the whole economy. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
Rugby league, and Hull FC have narrowly lost to Castleford Tigers. | :04:10. | :04:13. | |

Dave Syers scored this in the 79th minute ` his tenth of the season. | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
Substitute Hakeeb Adelakun then caused the ball to rebound off the | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
Plymouth keeper for the second. The result leaves them second in League | :04:38. | :04:39. | |

weather front moves through. Again, a fairly cloudy day. It will be | :05:41. | :05:47. | |
breezy. Temperatures up to a high of 14. | :05:48. | :05:50. | |

Good evening. Apologies for sounding Southeast centric, but it is | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
difficult when London had a high of 20 this afternoon, 68 Fahrenheit. | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
Lovely sunshine across England, Wales and eastern Scotland. Some | :06:22. | :06:31. | |
