Final preparations for the international

:00:46.:00:48.

The battle lines have been drawn up in a row over parking

:00:49.:01:56.

here. This reach stretches ` couple of miles and is surrounded by

:01:57.:02:02.

unspoiled countryside. But some people say visitors are disrupting

:02:03.:02:08.

the peace. A number of campdr vans and motorhome owners have arrived

:02:09.:02:11.

and they are angry they cannot stay here overnight. Parking up for a

:02:12.:02:18.

weekend by the Lincolnshire seaside. For the last five years a group of

:02:19.:02:24.

campers have been living on this car park for weeks and months at a time.

:02:25.:02:31.

The council says it is illegal. Motorhome owners say they are being

:02:32.:02:36.

discriminated against. Why do some people want to live in a car park?

:02:37.:02:42.

They are just travelling around They are self`contained and they

:02:43.:02:46.

have a legal right to park tp a one or two days anywhere across the UK.

:02:47.:02:52.

It is the fundal rent sole right of UK citizen to park where thdy want.

:02:53.:02:55.

But these signs clearly forbid overnight stays. Now the cotncil is

:02:56.:03:00.

taking legal action against 40 people. The residents and tourists

:03:01.:03:07.

want to come here and enjoy the place in the daytime and should not

:03:08.:03:20.

be subjected to a use by a small bunch of freeloaders. We will deal

:03:21.:03:30.

with this problem once and for all. Lincolnshire has the highest

:03:31.:03:39.

concentration of caravans in Europe and just up the road, others pay to

:03:40.:03:50.

camper. The issue over night parking, we have had a group that

:03:51.:03:52.

stay there all the year round. They sometimes cause problems with the

:03:53.:03:53.

toilets. They take over the area. What I am concerned about is that it

:03:54.:03:55.

might yet closed. Along the coast, height barriers have been installed

:03:56.:03:56.

to keep motorhomes are. But this has been cut down three times. H have

:03:57.:03:58.

been told that have been problems with rubbish, fires and inthmidation

:03:59.:03:59.

and bullying. People don't feel safe. I have seen all of thd

:04:00.:04:06.

complaints submitted to the council with regards of fires and noise The

:04:07.:04:11.

complaints were about a ravd. No complaint was seen about thd letter.

:04:12.:04:18.

Andy plans to sleep on the beach over the weekend and others are

:04:19.:04:21.

determined to make their pohnt and ignore the rules. Campaigners say

:04:22.:04:26.

they will fight the legal action and the majority have told me they will

:04:27.:04:30.

not be staying here overnight. Anyone who is caught faces ` maximum

:04:31.:04:36.

fine of ?500 and it they do not pay they could have their vehicles

:04:37.:04:42.

seized. The only ones who c`n get an overnight permits are anglers. But

:04:43.:04:50.

it does not allow them to sleep here and there are plenty of campsites

:04:51.:04:54.

nearby and that is where thd council says people should be staying.

The parent company of the Country Park Inn has gone

:05:58.:06:02.

into administrative receivership. It's one of three businesses in

:06:03.:06:05.

East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire to be affected

:06:06.:06:08.

The Country Park Inn only rd`opened in April after

:06:09.:06:12.

the venue was affected by flooding. The receivers says all bookhngs for

down to increased drinking. Thousands of people who lost their

:06:25.:06:28.

jobs without redundancy pay when the Hull`based electrical giant Comet

:06:29.:06:31.

collapsed could now get payouts A case brought by former employees

:06:32.:06:37.

against Comet has ruled that they are in line for a Government

:06:38.:06:45.

payout worth around ?10 million The judge found they had not been

:06:46.:06:50.

properly consulted Our reporter, Sarah Walton,

:06:51.:06:53.

has been following developmdnts Sarah how much could

:06:54.:06:58.

former employees receive? The judge said this was such

:06:59.:07:05.

a serious case that he awarded the people represented in this case

:07:06.:07:07.

the highest amount he could, between 70 to 90 days pay, so as you

:07:08.:07:12.

say around ?10 million in total But nearly 7,000 people lost

:07:13.:07:17.

their jobs when Comet closed. The judge is now asking thel to

:07:18.:07:25.

put forward claims so that payout Many of those former

:07:26.:07:30.

employees are from our area. The company was set up in Htll

:07:31.:07:38.

in the 30s. But when it collapsed the Government

:07:39.:07:41.

had to use taxpayers? money to cover the ?23 million worth of pax owed to

:07:42.:07:44.

staff at the time and this new ruling means the Government will

:07:45.:07:49.

also have to pay their compdnsation. But the lawyers representing

the staff say the ruling shows just The employees were lied to,

in the next month or so if other former employees are also

entitled to a payout. The true cost will only be

:08:31.:08:34.

known after that ruling. But at the same time,

:08:35.:08:36.

the Government's Insolvency Service is carrying out a review

:08:37.:08:37.

into the collapse and claims So a year and a half after Comet

:08:38.:08:41.

closed down, When the national publication

:08:42.:08:51.

the Economist described Hull as a city in decline it was

:08:52.:08:54.

a description that upset residents and the city's leaders alikd.

:08:55.:08:57.

Now eight months on and Hull has been named City of Culture

:08:58.:09:00.

for 2017 and Siemens has made a multi`million pound commitment to

:09:01.:09:06.

build a wind turbine factorx here. So the BBC brought the writdr of

:09:07.:09:08.

that controversial article to Hull to see if his views would change.

:09:09.:09:16.

Entitled Britain's decaying towns, the writer Daniel Knowles from The

:09:17.:09:19.

Economist said giving public money to places like Hull was "misguided"

:09:20.:09:22.

and instead of trying to rescue failing towns they should "help the

:09:23.:09:27.

people who live in them commute or move to places

:09:28.:09:30.

After Hull won the City of Culture title, the BBC brought Mr Knowles to

:09:31.:09:35.

the city to make a Radio 4 documentary to sed

:09:36.:09:39.

"It's had this uphill struggle and the challenge as Britain coles out

:09:40.:09:48.

of recession and Hull tries to capitalise on this is whethdr we can

:09:49.:09:51.

really turn this regeneration into something that will really benefit

:09:52.:09:55.

the people of Hull and turn the city around."

:09:56.:09:59.

The full documentary, Finding a Future for Hull, it's avail`ble on

:10:00.:10:03.

the iPlayer. Earlier I asked Daniel Knowles and asked him what he

:10:04.:10:07.

thought of Hull now? And you might have your thotghts on

:10:08.:10:21.

It was striking how optimistic the people in charge of whole art. They

:10:22.:10:36.

have this city of culture thtle to show off. Last October you wrote we

:10:37.:10:41.

should give up on failing towns like Hull and let decaying towns died. Do

:10:42.:10:49.

you accept you were wrong? Xes, we did say those words. But if you read

:10:50.:10:55.

it it was more about how to deal with regeneration. You were saying

:10:56.:11:02.

you should not rescue Hull. You wrote that and then a month later we

:11:03.:11:09.

won the City of Culture title. Do you want to say sorry about that?

:11:10.:11:14.

Know, and I feel this is slhghtly aggressive. The fundamental say

:11:15.:11:20.

economic growth is happening in big cities and not small ones. That

:11:21.:11:25.

remains true now, six months later. The city of Culture is a good thing

:11:26.:11:30.

the Hull and I am pleased, but it does not mean we were totally wrong.

:11:31.:11:35.

The fundamental picture of relative economic decline in post`industrial

:11:36.:11:42.

cities and towns remains trte. The challenge is overcoming that. The

:11:43.:11:49.

idea that the cities should be allowed to grow faster at the

:11:50.:11:52.

expense of small ones, we still stand by that, but that is not

:11:53.:11:58.

happening are you saying Sidmens and the city of culture alone c`nnot

:11:59.:12:04.

reverse the decline? If thex combine well with other policies around

:12:05.:12:08.

schools and transport, things that will bring businesses in, they will

:12:09.:12:16.

be a catalyst to help turn `round some of Hull's relative decline

:12:17.:12:20.

They are great news but perhaps the beginning of a change. To stmmarise,

:12:21.:12:27.

Hull is still swimming against the tide? Absolutely. It is a dhfficult

:12:28.:12:33.

one. Something impressive is going on but there is a lot of hard work

:12:34.:12:41.

to go on. Another one you mhght have some thoughts on. He said l`st

:12:42.:12:48.

October we should give up on Hull and Britain's decaying towns and let

:12:49.:12:54.

them die. He still sounded ` bit cynical.

Students utterly out to become the seafood Chef of the year. Forget the

:13:06.:13:15.

World Cup, we are getting rdady to be international cabbage throwing

Championships. Cabbage and seafood still to come. The photograph was

taken by Kenn Moss. Looks lhke an oil painting. Now the weathdr.

:13:35.:13:49.

Continuing with the scare crow theme, I have a message frol Louis.

:13:50.:14:02.

Sorry there isn't a Peter scarecrow yet. Do you want to give us the

:14:03.:14:07.

forecast? Very settled over the next few days

:14:08.:14:17.

with the exception of percehving. We start the forecast with a wdather

:14:18.:14:25.

warning of heavy rain. Localised, but the risk of heavy and thundery

:14:26.:14:29.

downpours. The weather pattdrn is dominated by high pressure. It does

:14:30.:14:37.

not mean it will be sunny over the next few days, but it could be quite

:14:38.:14:41.

the opposite but it could bd settled. On the satellite phcked

:14:42.:14:42.

chip, Cloud spilling down from the north and some places have `n

:14:43.:14:43.

overcast day. As we go throtgh the evening, we see thundery showers

:14:44.:14:45.

spreading but mainly inland. Some places might not get them at all but

:14:46.:14:51.

if you do they will be happx and thundery. Cloud overnight.

:14:52.:14:55.

Temperatures falling back to around 14 or 15 degrees. Sun will rise at

:14:56.:15:01.

4:30am and setting again at 9:3 p.m.. A different feel to the

:15:02.:15:09.

weather. We have picked up ` north easterly breeze by tomorrow morning.

:15:10.:15:16.

Cloudier and cooler. Aside from the odd light shower it will be largely

:15:17.:15:20.

dry through Saturday and we will see the best of any brightness hn the

:15:21.:15:25.

afternoon. Some spells of stnshine breaking through but at timds it

:15:26.:15:30.

could be cloudy. It felt warm and humid today. Inland it could get up

:15:31.:15:35.

to 19 degrees. Those temper`tures along the coast, 15, 16 degrees will

:15:36.:15:39.

feel cooler than it has been this week. High pressure dominatds.

:15:40.:15:46.

Settled weather to come and cloudy at times but it will be largely dry.

A wealthy Germantown is sending a message to its twin town in Lincoln.

:16:04.:16:13.

You kept up a quarter of thd votes in the recent Euro elections but in

:16:14.:16:22.

Germany they want closer tids with Europe in

:16:23.:16:26.

Lincoln's twin town of Germ`ny's prosperous wine growing reghon.

:16:27.:16:31.

And for seventh generation wine grower, Stefan Chrisman, life

:16:32.:16:33.

When I took it over from my parents we just sold

:16:34.:16:38.

But nowadays we export about 40 of our wines and it is a perfect thing

:16:39.:16:44.

that the Common Market is there and we can sell the wines to Swdden to

:16:45.:16:49.

Italy, Spain and a lot of dhfferent countries and also to the UK.

:16:50.:16:53.

Back in the UK, the very idea of an EU Federation

:16:54.:16:56.

state is strongly resisted by politicians across the spectrum.

:16:57.:17:01.

But here, many people want their country to

:17:02.:17:05.

TRANSLATION: That is our future we can only go

:17:06.:17:14.

on together because Europe can only stand together against the others.

:17:15.:17:17.

For example, China. Powerful China or Russia.

:17:18.:17:20.

TRANSLATION: I see myself as a European and wish that as wdll.

Beneath the surface in Neustadt there are some concerns

:17:29.:17:37.

Stefan has watched Neustadt change over the past decade.

:17:38.:17:47.

There has to be more control over things like immigration.

:17:48.:17:51.

It is not allowed to be that easy to come in and get then bendfits.

:17:52.:17:55.

Neustadt bears the hallmarks of a traditional Germany, but like its

:17:56.:18:00.

country, its identity is closely aligned with that of the EU.

:18:01.:18:05.

Most people are happy to sed that relationship deepen.

:18:06.:18:17.

More on this one on Sunday. People in parts of Hull are bracing

:18:18.:18:36.

themselves for an increase hn their parking permits. They want to raise

:18:37.:18:42.

it from ?7 50 up to ?33 a ydar. A big response on this story. Thanks

:18:43.:18:45.

for your messages and e`mails. A former Lincolnshire distrhct

:18:46.:19:36.

councillor has been found gtilty of indecent assault. He represdnted

:19:37.:19:43.

Chapel Saint Leonards. He stood down shortly after the allegations were

:19:44.:19:47.

made. He was cleared of further counts of rape, indecent assault and

:19:48.:19:54.

indecency with a child. The jury was unable to reach verdicts on indecent

:19:55.:19:59.

assault and indecency with ` child. He has been granted bail and is due

:20:00.:20:02.

back in court on the 7th of July for sentencing.

:20:03.:20:10.

Hull City striker Nikica Jelavic played a decisive role in Croatia's

:20:11.:20:12.

only goal in the side's opening game in the World Cup. Jelavic is only

:20:13.:20:16.

the second Tigers' player ever to appear in a World Cup competition.

:20:17.:20:19.

He captained his side in last night's 3`1 defeat by Brazil and was

:20:20.:20:23.

involved in the build up to Brazil's own`goal which put Croatia `head.

:20:24.:20:24.

In rugby league, both Hull FC and Hull KR are playing tonight. The

:20:25.:20:28.

last time the Black and Whites played was a fortnight ago when they

:20:29.:20:31.

beat the London Broncos. Thdy play Widnes tonight. Hull KR suffered a

:20:32.:20:35.

heavy defeat when they lost at Castleford. Tonight they're at home

:20:36.:20:36.

Lincolnshire tennis player says she is looking forward to playing her

:20:37.:21:14.

Wimbledon qualifying matches next week. Jade Windley will be playing

:21:15.:21:21.

in the singles and doubles qualifying rounds. If she gdts

:21:22.:21:25.

through, it will be her second year playing at Wimbledon.

:21:26.:21:29.

Probably the greatest experhence I've had playing tennis.

:21:30.:21:31.

I really hope I can qualify this year so I can have that agahn.

:21:32.:21:40.

If she gets to Wimbledon shd will be joining Lincoln's Daniel Cl`rk and

:21:41.:21:49.

Kyle Edmonds. Student chefs have been battling for the title of Uk

:21:50.:21:57.

Young Seafood Chef Of The Ydar. Heading up the judging panel was a

:21:58.:22:03.

celebrity chef. Our correspondent watched the competition. Thd pans

:22:04.:22:07.

are boiling hot and the knives razor sharp. The atmosphere is like a

:22:08.:22:18.

pressure cabal. 18 young chdfs or determing to win. I have always

:22:19.:22:25.

wanted to be a chef. We tridd last year but did not get through to the

:22:26.:22:29.

final. But it will not be e`sy to impress. It is nerve wracking when

:22:30.:22:34.

he comes round and shakes your hand. He starts sniffing in your pans

:22:35.:22:40.

With more cookery contest is like these on our screens, this hmage is

:22:41.:22:47.

attracting plenty of young recruits. We have seen a big change. People

:22:48.:22:54.

look at professional chefs `s a good location. When I was a chef, I was a

:22:55.:23:03.

reject from society. This competition promotes the usd of fish

:23:04.:23:08.

in cookery and each team prdpares three fish `based dishes. These

:23:09.:23:16.

young chefs will hopefully dnd up in restaurants and hotels. I think they

:23:17.:23:20.

will realise the value and importance of seafood. According to

:23:21.:23:25.

statistics, we are eating ldss fish as a country these days. Hotsehold

:23:26.:23:31.

registers has declined by 8.4%. But here they are passionate about

:23:32.:23:35.

seafood and keen to reverse that trend. It is hard to cook and people

:23:36.:23:41.

try to stay away from it. It would be better if people did learn how to

:23:42.:23:47.

cook fish. As the sponsors sample the results, it is a thumbs up. I

:23:48.:23:54.

have enjoyed it very much. Ht is restaurant quality, I would be happy

:23:55.:24:01.

to pay for that in a restaurant South Essex College take thd crown.

:24:02.:24:07.

But these students are busy and have no time for disappointment.

:24:08.:24:13.

The organisers of the annual cabbage throwing Championships are getting

:24:14.:24:16.

ready to host contestants from around the world. The event is in

:24:17.:24:22.

its second year. Simon has been to see the preparations. There is a new

:24:23.:24:31.

sport in town. It requires ` keen eye. And nerves of steel. You are

:24:32.:24:41.

about to experience a taste of the world cabbage throwing compdtition.

:24:42.:24:57.

It is like scoring a goal at the World Cup if you get one in the

:24:58.:25:03.

tyres. You do get totally dhfferent results, it is great. You jtst aim

:25:04.:25:09.

your cabbage, pull the pin `nd you are there. This will be the second

:25:10.:25:14.

year that this extravaganza this weekend. They hope to build on the

:25:15.:25:23.

surprise success of last ye`r. Everybody was tentative abott having

:25:24.:25:28.

a go, but later in the day, the arena was full. Everybody w`nted to

:25:29.:25:41.

see it. The only cabbage throwing competition? There is a competition

:25:42.:25:50.

in America. It is the creathon of John Ward. We set the cabbage in the

:25:51.:25:55.

sling. When you pull the pin it will go at a rate of knots. It alazed us,

:25:56.:26:04.

we did not know it would go global. We laughingly said world cabbage,

:26:05.:26:06.

not realising when we looked online and we have got a foothold hn so

:26:07.:26:08.

many countries. The interest last year was phenomenal. There `re

:26:09.:26:16.

health and safety aspects bdcause cabbages way quite a bit. There is

:26:17.:26:19.

an alternative for the children .. Onions. Organisers would like us to

:26:20.:26:26.

stress no vegetables will bd wasted in the making of this report. All of

:26:27.:26:33.

them are rejects and by Monday will be fed to the cattle.

:26:34.:26:41.

Only in Lincolnshire! Let's have a re`of the headlines.

:26:42.:26:51.

The director at the school `t the centre of abuse allegations in

:26:52.:26:52.

Rochdale, a senior police officer says he was misled by the council.

:26:53.:26:55.

People accused of parking illegally on the Lincolnshire coast s`y they

:26:56.:27:00.

will defy the authorities and stay overnight. Risk of a few light

:27:01.:27:03.

showers tomorrow, dry for the rest of the day. Cooler, especially on

:27:04.:27:11.

the coast. On the subject of parking. Somebody says, thex should

:27:12.:27:15.

visit Australia says, these people who choose to
