As evidence mounts of a cash crisis in adult social care, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
councils are turning to taxpayers to plug the gap. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
3% will be added to most bills, but new figures show a remarkable | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
gap between rich and poor areas in how much it will actually raise | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
The Hull MP, Alan Johnson, who serves an area where a quarter | :00:18. | :00:26. | |
of adults need some care, says it s not fair and today | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
Here's our political editor, Tim Iredale. | :00:30. | :00:35. | |
It's one of the biggest challenges facing the country. | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
How to care for the elderly and vulnerable in areas | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
Today came this warning from a body that represents GPs from East Yorks | :00:41. | :00:48. | |
What the government needs to stop doing is playing games with not | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
The government needs to acknowledge that our population is going to need | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
Unless the government decides to fund this appropriately | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
will have a massive crisis on our hands with health | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
The government is allowing councils to add an extra 3% charge on precept | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
on to council tax bills this year to pay for social care. | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
It's claimed that in many areas that simply won't be enough to cover | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Areas where they have lots of high value housing | :01:16. | :01:24. | |
Those areas usually have less demand on adult social care. | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
Places like Hull which has huge demand, 27% of the population | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
needing some kind of adult social care, because it's got low value | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
It's estimated that increasing council tax to pay for adult social | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
care in Hull will raise an extra ?8 per person. | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
But the same increase in neighbouring East Riding brings | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
And in the London borough of Kingston-upon-Thames it raises | :01:50. | :01:57. | |
Picking up his prescription in whole is John Lamb whose 85 and has | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
He's happy with the care he receives but is worried about reports that | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
some councils are facing a funding crisis. | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
Paying tax all your life from being 15 years of age up to 65 | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
Down south they get the quality, don't they? | :02:20. | :02:27. | |
One campaigner for the elderly says we should all be | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
We need to integrate health and social care in a way that hasn't | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
A national insurance system of some kind rather than leaving it | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
Earlier today, Alan Johnson led a debate in Parliament on social | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
care and later a senior government minister agreed to discuss concerns | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
about the way social care is funded in the city. | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
I am very happy to meet the Hull council. | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
I received a letter and replied within weeks and I'm more | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
than happy to meet and, just today, I have contacted Hull | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
Many councils are hoping the Chancellor will use next month's | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
budget to dig a little deeper and give them more money | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
A toddler is described by police as being in a "very poorly state" | :03:21. | :03:30. | |
in hospital after sustaining serious injuries in a collision | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
The 18-month-old was hit on St Nicholas Drive at around 4:45 | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
Police say the child's family are receiving support. | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
The Health Secretary has asked for the overnight closure | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
of Grantham Accident and Emergency to be investigated. | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
The A has had reduced opening hours since last August | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
because of a shortage of doctors, leading to local protests. | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
Jeremy Hunt has stepped in after being contacted | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
People in Hull who've had their wheelie bins stolen, | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
say they're angry at having to pay the council for a replacement. | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
Residents say the cost of around ?30 is unfair when they've been | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
Some who've been affected in the past have started | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
chaining their bins up to stop them being taken. | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
It is the difference between whether you can afford to put gas | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
or electric in or pay half towards your weekly shopping bill. | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
It took them about three weeks before we got another bin. | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
But why should we have to pay when we are paying Council Tax? | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
That should be used to replace anything that is stolen like that? | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
And in a statement, Hull City Council said: | :04:47. | :05:02. | |
It was the event that put Hull on the international map months | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
Thousands of people stripped naked and covered themselves in blue paint | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
The Sea of Hull photo shoot by Spencer Tunick | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
attracted worldwide attention for the city last summer. | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
And today, those volunteers who took part found out when the pictures | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
It was last July when the Sea of Hull took place after photographer | :05:24. | :05:36. | |
Spencer Tunick put out an open call for volunteers to come to Hull - | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
bare all, get painted blue and go out onto the city streets. | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
Among that number were volunteers from 20 countries around the world. | :05:43. | :05:51. | |
And after the event was over, it was heralded as the largest event | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
Today, after a seven-month wait, the news volunteers had waited for. | :05:55. | :06:02. | |
April 22nd will be the day the photos go on display | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
as part of an exhibition at Hull's Ferens Art | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
Together their naked bodies created the sea of Hull - | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
and with the help of an American photographer they grabbed | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
It is Midsummer in the English seaside city of Hull with a | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
temperature rarely climbs over 17 degrees. | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
TV stations in Australia, New Zealand and America were talking | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
about 'Hull' many months before it was the City of Culture. | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
Today it was less of a sea and more of a splash, | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
as some of the thousands who took part last summer painted | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
The community spirit is fabulous and I'm proud to be part of it. | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
The images in which they star will go on display in | :06:50. | :07:04. | |
the Ferens Art Gallery in April - as part of an exhibition that | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
examines how the naked form continues to inspire artists. | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
Four paintings by one of Britain's most highly regarded artists | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
Lucian Freud will be shown including this one called 'Two Men'. | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
Sculptures by Ron Mueck including the 'Spooning Couple' will be loaned | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
to the Ferens and a painting considered Edouard Manet's | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
masterpiece ,which shocked 19th century audiences, | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
This is a really big Steinman exhibition and we hope will attract | :07:30. | :07:42. | |
not just local audiences that audiences from further afield. | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
I think we were hoping to receive about half a million over the course | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
of the year but if things continue to go as they are now we could | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
It's been seven months since thousands of people laid bare | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
in the streets of Hull - now they'll only have to wait a few | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
the gallery says it's already had an president did interest since it | :08:07. | :08:15. | |
opened last month. It is hoped the images and the Skin exhibition will | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
continue to draw thousands more. The singer Calum Scott has | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
missed out on a Brit award The 28-year-old from Hull was | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
nominated for Best British Single for his version of the song | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
Dancing On My Own, Good evening. It will be a stormy 24 | :08:29. | :08:50. | |
hours. Let's look at the amber warning area. We are looking | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
especially at southern parts of Lincolnshire. Possibly higher gusts | :08:56. | :09:05. | |
than shown. Windy to the north but not the stormy conditions in the far | :09:06. | :09:14. | |
south. Storm Doris will have its strongest winds into the afternoon. | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
Persistent rain will clear later. Not much wind at first but it will | :09:21. | :09:22. | |
pick-up. Tomorrow, very unsettled with | :09:23. | :09:31. | |
showers or even some longer outbreaks of rain. Potentially a | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
south-westerly gale in the morning. When it since -- tilts around in the | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
early afternoon that is the time when the strongest gusts will | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
arrive. The potential then for some disruption. Temperatures are largely | :09:49. | :09:56. | |
academic in the strong wind. Friday will be mostly dry with some | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
sunshine and patchy rain at the weekend but a good deal of fine | :10:00. | :10:00. | |
weather nonetheless. And your local radio station will | :10:01. | :10:10. | |
have more on the weather situation in the morning and the travel as | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
well. I am back tomorrow so join me then if you can. Good night. | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
some sunshine around and light winds. For more on Doris and its | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
impact, here is the national weather. | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
Good evening, a rough patch weather on the way. Time to fasten your seat | :10:28. | :10:37. | |
belt. A high wind warning from the Met office, an amber one, so pretty | :10:38. | :10:38. |
