BBC Two, 11.00pm in Scotland. Good evening and welcome to the late

:00:00.:00:00.

Look North. After the Ukip row in

:00:00.:00:00.

the European Parliament, we speak to one Yorkshire c`ndidate

:00:00.:00:07.

hoping for a place at Westmhnster. And the Sheffield youngsters who'll

:00:08.:00:11.

be first to benefit from a lassive And will this fine, mild,

:00:12.:00:13.

settled weather continue? Join me for the live updated

:00:14.:00:20.

forecast. French police have been askdd

:00:21.:00:31.

to investigate an altercation involving a Yorkshire MEP

:00:32.:00:33.

at the European Parliament An internal investigation bx Ukip

:00:34.:00:35.

today resulted in Mike Hookdm being given a "formal repriland

:00:36.:00:41.

following a clash with fellow MEP In a moment we will hear from one

:00:42.:00:45.

prospective Yorkshire Ukip politician, but first our

:00:46.:00:51.

Political Correspondent Tim Iredale exchange at the European

:00:52.:00:53.

what happened in that heated exchange at the European Parliament

:00:54.:01:04.

in Strasbourg almost MEP Stephen Woolfe spent

:01:05.:01:06.

three nights in hospital after collapsing on the day

:01:07.:01:10.

the altercation took place. Yorkshire and Humber MP Mikd Hookem

:01:11.:01:14.

has admitted there was a sctffle but has denied punching Mr Woolfe

:01:15.:01:17.

following an argument I never hit him. I stuck by that

:01:18.:01:20.

because that was the truth. I should not have graced thd bed and

:01:21.:01:53.

gone into that room. And I `pologise for that. -- raised the bait.

:01:54.:01:56.

Today the president of the Duropean Parliament Martin Schultz c`lled

:01:57.:01:58.

for an investigation by French police because of what he claimed

:01:59.:02:01.

was a serious and possible criminal implication.

:02:02.:02:03.

A committee found that accounts between the two men

:02:04.:02:05.

And Mr Schultz said medical reports suggested Stephen Woolfe had

:02:06.:02:08.

Meanwhile, in a statement this lunchtime, Mike Hookem hit back

:02:09.:02:17.

accusing the European Parli`ment president of stirring the pot.

:02:18.:02:19.

Describing the accusation that he punched Stephen Woolfe

:02:20.:02:21.

He's called on Mr Schultz to repeat the allegations outside

:02:22.:02:28.

of Parliament where he has hmmunity or simply to just apologise.

:02:29.:02:35.

Any French police investigation I were welcomed because it will once

:02:36.:02:40.

again prove that I'm innocent. Steven Woolfe, once seen as a rising

:02:41.:02:44.

star in Ukip and possible ldadership contender has now left the party but

:02:45.:02:49.

still sits as an MEP. It is now down to the French authorities to decide

:02:50.:02:50.

whether anyone has a case to answer. Joining us live from our Shdffield

:02:51.:02:52.

studio is the prospective parliamentary candidate for Ukip

:02:53.:02:54.

for Sheffield Brightside Good evening. We don't want to talk

:02:55.:03:06.

about what might or might not have happened because there were no

:03:07.:03:10.

witnesses, but could your p`rty have dealt with this better and sooner?

:03:11.:03:17.

No. We have obviously done ` thorough investigation and talk to

:03:18.:03:20.

be people there, got all thd facts. That's all we can do. We didn't want

:03:21.:03:24.

to leap out there with a case that could have been misleading so I

:03:25.:03:27.

think we did exactly the right thing. But how embarrassing is it

:03:28.:03:32.

that the president the Parlhament has referred the case to Frdnch

:03:33.:03:36.

prosecutors, but shows that he thought your party wasn't t`king

:03:37.:03:40.

this seriously enough. It is quite interesting that the Europe`n

:03:41.:03:44.

Parliament has some kind of legal immunity. It isn't to be

:03:45.:03:47.

extraterritorial summer doesn't actually fall within any kind of law

:03:48.:03:55.

I understand, the whole reason of this is the president of thd

:03:56.:04:01.

European Parliament doesn't really rate you kept very highly. We are

:04:02.:04:06.

the party, the cat amongst the rats is at work, that has took Britain to

:04:07.:04:10.

a referendum that we have one and it is Ukip that has done that so Martin

:04:11.:04:15.

Schultz will obviously love any opportunity to try and get one back

:04:16.:04:19.

on Ukip so if they it is more of a statement rather than reality. Don't

:04:20.:04:22.

you think this is damage thd reputation of the party? Anxthing

:04:23.:04:27.

can be damaging but I think a lot of the general public see Ukip is the

:04:28.:04:34.

People's party. In years gone by Labour MPs and Tory MPs werd people

:04:35.:04:40.

from all walks of life. Ukip elected representatives are your Labour MPs

:04:41.:04:44.

some political science, and in turn, some political science, and in turn,

:04:45.:04:49.

researcher and then MP and then become an MP so they have bdcome

:04:50.:04:54.

very much carbon copy clones pushing a political agenda. We have got real

:04:55.:04:59.

people there. Sometimes thing ball -- boil over a little. Thank you for

:05:00.:05:02.

joining us this evening. Nurseries in Yorkshire say they re

:05:03.:05:04.

facing financial ruin if government plans to make them provide 30 hours

:05:05.:05:07.

of free childcare go ahead. York is one of eight places

:05:08.:05:10.

across the country where parents can claim 30 hours of free care

:05:11.:05:12.

for three and four-year-olds - that's double what's

:05:13.:05:15.

on offer elsewhere. But nursery bosses say the loney

:05:16.:05:17.

they get doesn't cover costs. Well, we have said to Government

:05:18.:05:21.

we think there are two options. They could put more money in to make

:05:22.:05:24.

sure that all the costs are covered. We know that that is very dhfficult

:05:25.:05:27.

in the economic climate. The other option would be to allow

:05:28.:05:30.

parents to pay extra charges, so use the funded contributhon

:05:31.:05:36.

from government as just that, a contribution

:05:37.:05:38.

to the costs of childcare. And allow parents to pay

:05:39.:05:40.

for the extras at their chosen choice of nursery or childmhnder

:05:41.:05:43.

so they have the option to get the kind of childcare they want

:05:44.:05:46.

for their child that gives them The Department for Education says

:05:47.:05:49.

it's working with the areas piloting the scheme to get its offer right

have drawn Liverpool on Merseyside on the weekend of November

29th and 30th. Meanwhile the launch of a scheme

:06:36.:06:38.

to boost grassroots football in Sheffield today has

:06:39.:06:43.

been widely welcomed. The Football Association's

:06:44.:06:44.

?200 million Parklife project will see 30 new all-weather

:06:45.:06:48.

facilities built across England James Vincent reports from the first

:06:49.:06:51.

one announced in Sheffield. This is the FA's glossy viddo

:06:52.:07:04.

for St George's Park in Sheffield, and we all know that Sunday league

:07:05.:07:08.

football and its pitches in this And that's one of the reasons why

:07:09.:07:11.

the FA's put its first This used to be, as I'm told,

:07:12.:07:17.

old grass pitches that just went to rack and ruin,

:07:18.:07:23.

as a lot of old grass pitchds do. And the problem is councils over

:07:24.:07:26.

the years have had less mondy to spend on upkeeping them,

:07:27.:07:29.

so I think football needs to step in, so, you know, what you see here,

:07:30.:07:32.

you can repeat 10,000 times ?200 million is being spent

:07:33.:07:35.

across the country. Sheffield is first and the council

:07:36.:07:40.

here have chipped in as well. Good news for Abbey Lane

:07:41.:07:44.

under-eights and their parents. It's so much better

:07:45.:07:48.

than where we were before. There's no pitches being called off

:07:49.:07:52.

or anything like that. I mean, this is our second season,

:07:53.:07:55.

so last year's under-sevens, the amount of games we had called

:07:56.:08:02.

off due to the weather, the state of the pitches,

:08:03.:08:05.

you know, so it was so inconsistent. And I just think the consistency's

:08:06.:08:08.

just going to do them He is happy that boots

:08:09.:08:11.

are finally on the pitch. Lots of years' worth

:08:12.:08:17.

of planning meetings, looking at drawings on piecds

:08:18.:08:20.

of paper, it's worth it when you're able to come and see the pitches

:08:21.:08:24.

nice and busy like we've sedn today. It's something that

:08:25.:08:27.

Sheffield really needs What we've tried to create or what

:08:28.:08:28.

we have created here is hub sites. And the revenue generated

:08:29.:08:34.

from the hire of the hub sites will be reinvested back

:08:35.:08:37.

into the improvement of grass Football's great and

:08:38.:08:40.

good were here today. They can grow up in all the places,

:08:41.:08:45.

and this is a place to play Here can start a big star

of Sheffield Wednesday We used to play in the stredt, so,

:08:54.:09:01.

you know, to see a fantastic facility like this now is, xou know,

:09:02.:09:07.

kids have everything now. I think parents will be happy to see

:09:08.:09:10.

them training and playing in a safe Sheffield is football's homd,

:09:11.:09:14.

and much like back then, the city is again being used

:09:15.:09:20.

as a model for others. Here is Paul now who is alw`ys a

:09:21.:09:38.

model for others. Thank you. A lot of fine weather over the next few

:09:39.:09:41.

days. That we show you a pic -- picture again by popular deland It

may look very similar curse light in the morning. The headline is a lot

:09:47.:09:51.

of cloud. Mild and windy. The jet stream is on the move to thd north

:09:52.:09:56.

and that means high pressurd will develop. A settled weekend but

:09:57.:10:02.

perhaps a bit of fog. A lot of fine unsettled weather. Not lookhng too

bad into early November. Quhet out there at the moment. If anything the

cloud will lower unsuitable depend nines and produce a little drizzle

impetus. In Melbourne in thd countryside. Eight or nine hn open

:10:14.:10:19.

areas ten or 11. Thick cloud in the West where there will be a bit of

:10:20.:10:25.

drizzle in the Yorkshire Dales and Yorkshire Pennines. The best by

:10:26.:10:29.

missing the East. A fairly windy day. A gusty wind. Perhaps not as

mild as that has done. Thursday evening looks mostly fine. Overnight

Thursday night into Friday lorning will see a weak weather front

fog is a possibility on Sunday morning. That is it. I will

out the outlook. Temperatures are looking very promising indeed. Nick

Miller has the National forecast. If you like your forecast to include

cold weather, this is not for you. Temperatures have been heading up,

helped by sunshine showing off the autumn colours. 19 Celsius in

Cheshire. Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales got to 16 or above. The

continue for the rest of the week into the weekend, even the start of

next week. Not a huge amount of sunshine with it. Colder
