UKIP's new councillor's celebrate as they take seats across Hull

:00:00.:00:15.

I'm live in Grimsby where UKIP have taken seven out of 15 seats.

:00:16.:00:32.

Today's result is a fantastic accumulation of tenures of work.

:00:33.:00:40.

The teenage boy who took his own life because he was bullied online.

:00:41.:00:59.

The 4`star Hotel Break for college students.

:01:00.:01:01.

You get to go there with all of your friends.

:01:02.:01:04.

Flash floods, thunder and lightning. Today, the clearer about torrential

:01:05.:01:09.

rain. And the team hoping to travel more than 400 mph to set a new world

:01:10.:01:13.

record. And a soggy start to the bank

:01:14.:01:16.

holiday weekend, but it should gradually improved. I will be back

:01:17.:01:20.

later in the programme with all the details.

:01:21.:01:27.

UKIP is celebrating big successes in the local elections

:01:28.:01:30.

after winning eight seats locally in yesterday's polls.

:01:31.:01:35.

In Hull they won one seat, beating one of Labour's most long

:01:36.:01:38.

But their biggest gains have come in North East Lincolnshire where

:01:39.:01:45.

Labour remain in overall control in Hull and Lincoln,

:01:46.:01:51.

but they've now lost control of North East Lincolnshire.

:01:52.:01:55.

Our Political Editor, Tim Iredale, is in Grimsby tonight.

:01:56.:01:57.

How much of a surprise is this showing by UKIP?

:01:58.:02:05.

Well, I have been out on the campaign trail across Lincolnshire

:02:06.:02:11.

and east Yorkshire in the past few weeks and it has been cleared,

:02:12.:02:15.

speaking to voters, that they wanted to give the established parties are

:02:16.:02:20.

good kicking. There will be some who say UKIP still do not have any

:02:21.:02:25.

direct power in our every outcome any other words the door not

:02:26.:02:31.

actually run `` in our area, in other words they do not actually run

:02:32.:02:34.

any of our councils, but they certainly have their opponents

:02:35.:02:37.

running scared. Meet the new kids on the block.

:02:38.:02:42.

UKIP's success has seen the party secure a solid power base in North

:02:43.:02:45.

East Lincolnshire. I think today's result is a fantastically with ``

:02:46.:02:50.

fantastic attenuation of ten years of work.

:02:51.:02:55.

The fruitcakes have come home! The result sees Labour dropped to 21

:02:56.:03:00.

seats on North East Lincolnshire Council. The Conservatives are down

:03:01.:03:05.

to ten seats, with UKIP now boasting eight councillors on the authority.

:03:06.:03:10.

The Liberal Democrats have three. UKIP I think will be a temporary

:03:11.:03:14.

phenomenon that will split and the divide on the council, and possibly

:03:15.:03:19.

even in Europe. The interesting thing about this election is the

:03:20.:03:23.

fact that the electorate has said to both main parties, a plague on both

:03:24.:03:28.

your houses. For people like me, who have long

:03:29.:03:32.

been Eurosceptics even before the word was invented, it confirms our

:03:33.:03:36.

view that people are very disconnected from the whole process,

:03:37.:03:41.

particularly the fact that Europe is seen as a distant organisation going

:03:42.:03:45.

against what the British people, and in some cases the British

:03:46.:03:50.

government, want. Last night saw Labour retain control

:03:51.:03:55.

of Hull City Council. UKIP's share of the vote was more than 25% of the

:03:56.:04:00.

vote, but that only resulted in them winning a one seat from the veteran

:04:01.:04:04.

Labour councillor David Gemmill, who had served on the authority for 26

:04:05.:04:07.

years. What do you make to the swing ``

:04:08.:04:11.

make of the swing towards UKIP version macro `` towards UKIP?

:04:12.:04:19.

There is certainly a swing across the country and all edition should

:04:20.:04:24.

take note. It tells you, it is a symptom of something that the public

:04:25.:04:29.

are not happy with. Labour also kept control of the city

:04:30.:04:33.

of Lincoln Council after gaining two Micro seats from the Conservatives.

:04:34.:04:38.

So, a mixture of celebration and commiseration after the local

:04:39.:04:41.

elections. For some, the excitement was all too much.

:04:42.:04:47.

Tim, do these results tell us anything about what we might expect

:04:48.:04:50.

on Sunday when we find out the results of the European elections?

:04:51.:04:57.

Yes, I managed to get some sleep first, like that last bloke, but it

:04:58.:05:01.

does seem a given now that UKIP will do well in the European elections.

:05:02.:05:06.

The votes are counted on Sunday night. There is one crumb of comfort

:05:07.:05:11.

this evening to UKIP's opponents, and that is that only one third of

:05:12.:05:16.

voters turned out in yesterday's elections. That is around half of

:05:17.:05:22.

that which would normally turn out in a general election. Some will say

:05:23.:05:26.

that voters have not necessarily switched allegiances, they just have

:05:27.:05:29.

not bothered to turn out to vote at all.

:05:30.:05:33.

Earlier this afternoon I spoke to Victoria Ayling, I UKIP `` single

:05:34.:05:42.

Michael UKIP councillor, and I asked why they had done so well in North

:05:43.:05:45.

East Lincolnshire. I think it is because everyone in the country, not

:05:46.:05:51.

just in Grimsby, are sick to the teeth of the three main parties

:05:52.:05:54.

selling them down the river. We are fed up with the lies, the

:05:55.:06:00.

same old spin, and the UKIP have common`sense policies and people who

:06:01.:06:03.

want to make a difference to bring this country forward again.

:06:04.:06:08.

I assume you will agree that a lot of these people who voted UKIP did

:06:09.:06:12.

it just to send a message. What percentage of these people will vote

:06:13.:06:16.

UKIP at the next election? No, it is not just a message. They

:06:17.:06:21.

realise we are forced to be reckoned with to turn this country around and

:06:22.:06:25.

get our country back for our people. This is not a flash in pan.

:06:26.:06:31.

We are a year away from the general election, number crunching has been

:06:32.:06:34.

done today, they reckon that Nigel Farage is right when he says that

:06:35.:06:39.

Grimsby is winnable as I UKIP seat one year from now and you will be

:06:40.:06:44.

the candidate. There has been no selection so I

:06:45.:06:48.

cannot comment. In North East Lincolnshire UKIP got 36% of the

:06:49.:06:51.

vote today. If it is you, and it is assumed it

:06:52.:06:55.

will become is it awkward? Four years ago you were wondering

:06:56.:06:58.

around the streets as a conservative.

:06:59.:07:02.

Is that not confusing for people? As I say, there has been no

:07:03.:07:07.

selection so I cannot comment on who the candidate is. All I can say is I

:07:08.:07:10.

am interested and that is it. Grimsby has gone well, and you have

:07:11.:07:16.

taken votes away from Labour. What do you think the average UKIP

:07:17.:07:20.

supporter stands for, and what do they want? We know what David

:07:21.:07:24.

Cameron thinks, closet racists and fruitcakes. What does the average

:07:25.:07:30.

person think and want? The average person wants a change

:07:31.:07:34.

with the party that will change things in this country for the

:07:35.:07:37.

better run to stop the downward spiral into the European Union and

:07:38.:07:43.

into the clutches of professional politicians, who have let us all

:07:44.:07:48.

down so much for years, whichever party it is. But David Cameron has

:07:49.:07:52.

promised a referendum on Europe. He has given a cast iron guarantee.

:07:53.:07:58.

UKIP's work is done, we do not need them any more, do we?

:07:59.:08:04.

No, David Cameron is not to be trusted. He reneged on the Lisbon

:08:05.:08:08.

Treaty referendum, that did not happen. But that was different, he

:08:09.:08:12.

has given a cast iron guarantee this time.

:08:13.:08:17.

I cast I guarantee from David Cameron or any of the main parties,

:08:18.:08:21.

voters realise it is not worth the paper is written on. There is only

:08:22.:08:26.

one way to get us out of Europe and to get our country back on its

:08:27.:08:30.

feet, and that is to vote UKIP. Anything else is a wasted vote for

:08:31.:08:34.

the same old system sucking us further into Europe. Cameron will

:08:35.:08:38.

not deliver, and even if we had a referendum it would be a fudge,

:08:39.:08:42.

because he has said he will campaign for a yes vote. Who can trust a man

:08:43.:08:47.

like that? Fast forward one year.

:08:48.:08:53.

Will you be, Victoria Ayling, UKIP MP? Or will it be eyed UKIP MP,

:08:54.:09:00.

someone else if not you, in Grimsby? There will be a UKIP MP in Grimsby,

:09:01.:09:05.

I believe that. Whether it is me or someone else, purely because the

:09:06.:09:09.

people of Grimsby and Cleethorpes have woken up, along with many in

:09:10.:09:13.

this country, that they can have a difference, they can get our country

:09:14.:09:19.

back and have a party that puts them first. This has proved it. Last year

:09:20.:09:23.

it proved it with council elections then. This is not a flash in the

:09:24.:09:26.

pan. Thank you for your time.

:09:27.:09:32.

There we are, an important day, seats for UKIP in Grimsby today, and

:09:33.:09:36.

we would be keen to get your thoughts on this one.

:09:37.:09:39.

Are you surprised that the results? Why has UKIP done so well?

:09:40.:09:43.

Please e`mail us at the address below.

:09:44.:09:47.

Give us your views on what you have heard from the local elections. As I

:09:48.:09:53.

say, UKIP has done well in north`eastern indenture and also

:09:54.:09:55.

Hull. Austin Mitchell there saying that UKIP are temporary phenomenon,

:09:56.:09:58.

do you agree with that? Thank you for watching this Friday

:09:59.:10:07.

night come in a moment of... Bringing the salmon back to East

:10:08.:10:10.

Yorks's rivers by leaving the lock gates open.

:10:11.:10:18.

A coroner has ruled a 17`year`old boy from Lincolnshire killed

:10:19.:10:20.

themselves after receiving file and threats on Facebook. Callum

:10:21.:10:32.

Moody`Chapman was found dead last regatta going missing from his aunt

:10:33.:10:35.

's home. In yours before he went missing he had read messages from a

:10:36.:10:38.

boy on Facebook saying he would be stabbed and beaten.

:10:39.:10:45.

Callum Moody`Chapman was described as a happy`go`lucky boy who put his

:10:46.:10:48.

family and others before himself. You would never meet another boy

:10:49.:10:53.

like him. If he got into trouble at school, he would not be in trouble

:10:54.:10:57.

for long because he knew how to work his charm. You know, he was...

:10:58.:11:03.

Unbelievable. But, one weekend last December, his life was turned upside

:11:04.:11:07.

down when he read threats to stab and beat him on Facebook.

:11:08.:11:11.

He was so troubled by it, a coroner decided, he killed himself. After

:11:12.:11:16.

today's hearing, his mum and dad said cyber bullying had taken their

:11:17.:11:20.

son's life. I would say to parents, I know you

:11:21.:11:25.

do not like to be nosy and look into your child's personal accounts or

:11:26.:11:29.

whatever. But you have to look out for the signs. The cyber bullying

:11:30.:11:35.

that is going on at the moment, it is rife, it really is. There are

:11:36.:11:39.

people out there that do it. They use Facebook as a weapon, not for

:11:40.:11:43.

what it should be used, for friends and genuine chat.

:11:44.:11:51.

The evidence's Callum `` the evidence Callum's family heard had

:11:52.:11:55.

been harrowing. On the night he died, he came here to the harbour,

:11:56.:11:58.

crying and sobbing he made two phone calls.

:11:59.:12:01.

One was to his older brother, Robert, saying he had messed up his

:12:02.:12:05.

life and he was sorry, and asked him to say goodbye to his niece. The

:12:06.:12:09.

second was to his father, Kevin, saying, simply, dad, I love you.

:12:10.:12:15.

117`year`old boy who cannot be named for legal reasons earlier this year

:12:16.:12:20.

pleaded guilty to charges of assault and fences under the malicious

:12:21.:12:25.

Communications act. A man has been charged with murder

:12:26.:12:29.

following a shooting at Melton in East Yorks on Tuesday night.

:12:30.:12:36.

30 age old Jonathan Smith from gunshot widths. 54`year`old Peter

:12:37.:12:42.

Guy from Milton will appear before magistrates tomorrow morning charged

:12:43.:12:45.

with his murder. A 15`year`old boy has been charged with assault and a

:12:46.:12:47.

third man released on police bail. A Hull academy is rewarding GCSE

:12:48.:12:50.

students who attend extra revision classes with trips to

:12:51.:12:53.

a 4 star hotel for a weekend Sirius Academy, which is rated

:12:54.:12:56.

as outstanding takes around 80 Academies are independently run

:12:57.:13:02.

and have more control over budgets. But anti`academy campaigners have

:13:03.:13:12.

described these weekends away It is a stressful time of year for

:13:13.:13:28.

thousands of teenagers, and like many schools at Sirius Academy in

:13:29.:13:33.

Hull they put on extra revision sessions. Your legal even further,

:13:34.:13:36.

rewarding some of those attending these classes with a stay at a hotel

:13:37.:13:40.

for a weekend of learning. Although the intense work we have

:13:41.:13:46.

done in the exam I just threw it. You get stressed and tired, to go

:13:47.:13:52.

and sit with your friends. You could do this at home with your friends,

:13:53.:13:55.

could you not ration might know, at home I would not have the

:13:56.:13:58.

motivation. The academy runs two of these

:13:59.:14:02.

residential ploys of `` residential is every year to around 40 pupils.

:14:03.:14:08.

Since 2009 they have used hotels in Hull, Scarborough, York and North

:14:09.:14:14.

Lincolnshire. Peace `` these days are a reward for

:14:15.:14:19.

good attendance and hard work, things like queue jump passes or

:14:20.:14:28.

special weekends away. Some people would say picking kids up in a hotel

:14:29.:14:32.

is a waste of public money. I disagree, because we have had a

:14:33.:14:37.

huge impact in terms of performance with our children being able to be

:14:38.:14:41.

given that last`minute revision with the support of a qualified member of

:14:42.:14:46.

staff. In 2009, 20 9% of pupils achieved

:14:47.:14:56.

five a star to C grades. At figure has risen to 25% `` 65%.

:14:57.:15:02.

Some argue it is an unnecessary expense.

:15:03.:15:05.

It sounds like a bribe. We now have these elite schools with extra

:15:06.:15:09.

finance and extra cash, and that is great for them but it does nothing

:15:10.:15:15.

for an equitable system. Opening at weekends for revision and

:15:16.:15:22.

these trips away costs around ?5,000 per year, and those here say it has

:15:23.:15:28.

helped boost grades. Another one you may wish to comment

:15:29.:15:32.

on, if you do, let me know, here are the contact details...

:15:33.:15:36.

The school says it is a good way to boost grades, do you agree?

:15:37.:15:42.

I look forward to hearing from you, as always.

:15:43.:15:47.

It is exactly 6:45pm, Friday night on BBC One. Still ahead... Hoping to

:15:48.:15:51.

set a new record for the fastest motor cycle in the world.

:15:52.:15:57.

It will be the first 400 mph record on two wheels, it has never been

:15:58.:16:01.

done before. As Britain has not held the record since 1937, that is far

:16:02.:16:03.

too long, we need that record back. If you have a picture you are proud

:16:04.:16:12.

of, please send it in and we will show it next week.

:16:13.:16:18.

Tonight's was taken by Mike Woodcock of wooden in North Lincolnshire.

:16:19.:16:19.

Like you for that. I am pleased to say you have put

:16:20.:16:29.

Sunita Darren. I thought you preferred blondes!

:16:30.:16:34.

That is what we always said. She is more polite and less cheeky

:16:35.:16:40.

than you come anyway. Some very unsettled weather to come

:16:41.:16:44.

through tomorrow, but an improvement through the bank holiday weekend. A

:16:45.:16:47.

lot of uncertainty about Monday still but it does look like the

:16:48.:16:52.

warmest and brightest day. Tomorrow will be thundery with

:16:53.:16:57.

showers from the south. This is courtesy of this area of low

:16:58.:17:00.

pressure, very unsettled weather tomorrow. It has been quite pleasant

:17:01.:17:06.

today, but some showers just creeping into part of North East

:17:07.:17:10.

Lincolnshire and some thunder. There is a risk anywhere of some showers

:17:11.:17:13.

into this evening, diminishing across the evening. A dry night with

:17:14.:17:19.

clear spells at first, more cloud later. It will not be called,

:17:20.:17:23.

temperatures down around ten or 11 Celsius. `` it will not be cold. The

:17:24.:17:30.

sun will rise in the morning at 4:47am setting at 9:10pm tomorrow

:17:31.:17:36.

evening. We start the day with a lot of cloud

:17:37.:17:41.

and we will start to see showery outbreaks of rain spreading into

:17:42.:17:44.

Lincolnshire. They will be heavy and persistent in

:17:45.:17:48.

places, perhaps again rumble of thunder, tending to ease later in

:17:49.:17:50.

the day. We could get quite wet spells at

:17:51.:17:55.

times, very large puddles again, and local surface water flooding as

:17:56.:17:59.

possible. Temperatures getting up to around 15 or 16 Celsius, cooler than

:18:00.:18:04.

today in Hull where we got around 20. On Sunday, starting on a damp

:18:05.:18:11.

zero but we should see an improvement, saw a dry day to come

:18:12.:18:15.

on Sunday. Some uncertainty about the forecast on Monday, some heavy

:18:16.:18:19.

showers for Lincolnshire but generally dry and bright with some

:18:20.:18:23.

sunshine and feeling warm. You have changed, I used to look forward to

:18:24.:18:28.

Fridays, now I look forward to Monday to Thursday.

:18:29.:18:30.

There is a special treat for you because I am on Monday to Friday

:18:31.:18:33.

next week, Peter. Don't tell me he has gone on holiday

:18:34.:18:37.

again! No, he has gone for more weather

:18:38.:18:41.

training, actually. It is a bit late for that!

:18:42.:18:47.

See you later. Homeowners is `` homeowners and

:18:48.:18:49.

business owners in parts of linkage today have been clearing up after

:18:50.:18:52.

flash flooding. Emergency services received more than 30 calls about

:18:53.:18:58.

damage caused by flooding and lightning.

:18:59.:19:02.

Some had a lucky escape. Wednesfield community School in

:19:03.:19:07.

keeping Saint James, deep in water. Here, headteachers and staff trying

:19:08.:19:14.

to clear corridors after a monsoon like a storm. It was like bucket

:19:15.:19:18.

after bucketload of water was pouring through the ceiling.

:19:19.:19:21.

Having walked in, I was horrified to see such a depth of water in the

:19:22.:19:26.

school, fast spreading. It took less than one hour for heavy

:19:27.:19:33.

rain to overwhelm roads here. Emergency services to 34 columns of

:19:34.:19:37.

flooding, 25 incidents attended. The road in which my partner lives

:19:38.:19:43.

was flooded to about a foot deep for maybe a quarter of a mile. We

:19:44.:19:47.

gritted our teeth and get the engine running and got home.

:19:48.:19:51.

The building behind me had its roof completely destroyed by a lightning

:19:52.:19:54.

strike in what people have described to me as one heck of a storm.

:19:55.:19:58.

We have been your 25 years and I have never known anything like it.

:19:59.:20:05.

The house was actually shaking. My son said a lightning bolt hit the

:20:06.:20:09.

aerial and there was a flash of yellow light, then the tiles on the

:20:10.:20:14.

roof lifted and fell back down. Some of them fell off and some were still

:20:15.:20:18.

hanging. One tenant missed the boat by

:20:19.:20:21.

minutes. Another was still in the building but was unhurt.

:20:22.:20:26.

This is my bedroom here, that window there, all of the ceiling is all

:20:27.:20:30.

collapsed over my bed. If I was lying in my bed, that would have all

:20:31.:20:36.

come down on top of me. There was a massive hole just in the ceiling. It

:20:37.:20:39.

is just huge, there is nothing left of it. I mean... Everything is gone.

:20:40.:20:46.

Every single light socket, plug socket, lamp, everything has just

:20:47.:20:53.

blown off the walls. A flash storm that made its impact

:20:54.:20:57.

in minutes will take months to put right.

:20:58.:21:02.

Let us hope that salmon could return to the rivers of East Yorkshire.

:21:03.:21:07.

The Barmby Barrage near Goole is being opened to allow the fish

:21:08.:21:11.

And as our Rural Affairs Correspondent Paul Murphy reports,

it could also provide a boost to the local economy.

:21:17.:21:21.

For 40 years, these gates have protected drinking water in the

:21:22.:21:28.

River Derwent from salt water in the river whose. Now there been

The lock behind us has been opened on a four hour basis to allow the

:21:47.:21:51.

animals to get up and do what they want to do in this brilliant

:21:52.:21:55.

watercourse. A year or two back we opened it for an hour and within a

:21:56.:22:01.

short period there were salmon spawning below Helmsley.

:22:02.:22:07.

The River Derwent runs from the North York murderers don't East

covering 800 square miles. `` the North York Moors.

:22:17.:22:22.

It is this will add more than ?12 million to local economies.

:22:23.:22:27.

The salmon is arguably the most highly prized and iconic of fishes,

:22:28.:22:32.

and although it could be several years before its presences fully

:22:33.:22:42.

felt on the Derwent, there is reason to believe communities along the

East Yorkshire and are sometimes overlooked, salted anglers and

:22:51.:22:53.

tourists be spending more time and money there? `` so could anglers?

:22:54.:23:00.

It would help if people need accommodation, camping facilities,

:23:01.:23:04.

it could help. As I say, it would have to be really well promoted.

:23:05.:23:09.

In other parts of the country, these highly prized fish attract quite an

:23:10.:23:13.

audience. In opening its doors for business, the Derwent is hoping for

:23:14.:23:20.

similar success. Garreth Carvell will be out for a

:24:08.:24:09.

It's hoped Jet Reaction will beat the 376 mph record later this year.

:24:10.:24:13.

It may look more like a missile, but this could soon hold the title

:24:14.:24:19.

of fastest motorcycle in the world. This is Jet Reaction `

:24:20.:24:31.

testing at Elvington Airfield. months away from potentially going

faster than anything else on two wheels in history.

:24:35.:24:38.

The designers are thrust powered two wheeler, that is innovative because

:24:39.:24:43.

the other contenders are using more regular means to power their

:24:44.:24:46.

vehicles. The world record for two wheeled

:24:47.:24:52.

vehicle stands at 376 mph, set by an American in 2010. That is the record

:24:53.:24:56.

the team are hoping to smash, to break through the 400 mph barrier

:24:57.:25:00.

and bring that record back to Britain for the first time since

:25:13.:25:15.

He was part of Thrust SSC, the first car ever to break

:25:18.:25:27.

Ken Hinchey 97, that was the first car to set the supersonic record,

:25:28.:25:30.

and we are working to establish what will be the fourth `` first 400 mph

:25:31.:25:36.

record on two wheels. As Britain has not held the record since 1937, that

:25:37.:25:40.

is far too long, we need that record back.

:25:41.:25:42.

the sound barrier in 1997. The bike is thrust forward thanks to

:25:43.:25:47.

a modified jet engine taken from a Sea King search

:25:48.:25:50.

and rescue helicopter, and fitted with an afterburner.

:25:51.:25:51.

But none of this comes cheap. We are still desperately searching

:25:52.:25:58.

for sponsorship because obviously defines this and go to America is a

:25:59.:26:01.

struggle on a personal budget. It takes a lot to make it happen, and

:26:02.:26:05.

in a way that is why when it was finally happen it is so deserved.

:26:06.:26:08.

But none of this comes cheap. The team's hoping to make the record

:26:09.:26:11.

breaking run at the Bonneville salt flats in Utah later this year.

:26:12.:26:14.

A chance to bring home a record they say has been out

of British hands for too long. That looks good, doesn't it?

:26:17.:26:31.

Let's have a recap of the main national and regional headlines...
