on the BBC News Channel. I'm back with the News at Ten. Now it's time | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
Good evening. Two women who led the fight against failings at Stafford | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
Hospital have been recognised in the New Year Honours list. Julie Bailey, | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
who set up the campaign group Cure the NHS after witnessing her | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
mother's treatment, was made a CBE. Helenee Donnelly, a nurse who became | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
a whistle`blower, was made an OBE. Here's our health correspondent | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
Michele Paduano. It was personal: the death of a mother that inspired | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
Julie Bailey to confront not only poor care at Stafford Hospital, but | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
one of the largest organisations in the world ` the NHS. In 2007, | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
86``year`old Bella, left without oxygen, collapsed in hospital. For | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
the next eight weeks Miss Bailey stayed by her bedside, witnessing | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
atrocious care on the ward. I haven't accepted mum's gone yet. I | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
just haven't accepted it. From her cafe in Stafford, she formed "Cure | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
the NHS" which exposed the failings in elderly care. She campaigned for | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
a public inquiry, confronting the politicians in her way. We want | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
every person who died in that hospital examined. Her campaign cost | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
her her livelihood and her home. She was blamed for the break up of | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
Stafford Hospital. Speaking from Abu Dhabi, she felt her mum would have | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
been proud. I'm overwhelmed. It's fantastic. It will keep our cause in | :01:20. | :01:26. | |
the limelight. It's recognition of how society feels about the care of | :01:27. | :01:34. | |
older people. Also honoured with a seasonal gift, nurse Helene Donnelly | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
OBE who worked in Accident and Emergency. She raised nearly 100 | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
complaints at Stafford Hospital and spoke out at the public inquiry. I | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
feel priveleged and obviously honoured. But not just for myself ` | :01:48. | :01:57. | |
for all of those who have blown the whistle and raised concerns. It's | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
very difficult. People have had to deal with terrible consequences. | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
Between them, they laid the foundations for changing the culture | :02:06. | :02:18. | |
of the NHS. Nearly 1,200 people have received | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
New Year Honours, including more than sixty here in the Midlands. | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
They include two women with football a dominant feature in their lives. | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
Here's Cath Mackie. Alison O'Connell has spent years on cold, windy | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
touchlines ` spurring on generations of youngsters in Birmingham. She's | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
raised thousands of pounds for sports projects and life skills | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
courses. Her reward, an MBE for services to the voluntary sector. | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
It's great for the local people. It's not just an award for me. It's | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
a credit to the people involved over the years. From the touchline to the | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
boardroom, Karren Brady ` the former Birmingham City Managing Director ` | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
said she was proud to become a CBE. Very priveleged and very proud, | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
particularly to be recognised for the work I've done for other women | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
in business. Ann Jones the 1969 Wimbledon Champion from birmingham | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
also becomes a CBE for services to tennis. `` Birmingham. Elsewhere, | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
the Mid Worcestershire Conservative MP Peter Luff gets a knighthood for | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
political and public service. It was, he said, an honour he shared | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
with his constituents. For the man dubbed "Mr Coventry", Joe Elliott, | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
it's an MBE for services to museums. And it's an OBE for the leader of | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
Coventry City Council Ann Lucas. Like many recipients, Carol | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
Pemberton ` the music director for Black Voices ` said her MBE for | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
services to music was humbling. Totally unexpected but greatfully | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
received. With honours for more than 60 people across the West Midlands, | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
the New Year celebrations will be extra special for many families. And | :03:45. | :03:53. | |
you'll find more details on the Honours recipients from the West | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
Midlands on our Facebook page. Football, and 2013 has been a year | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
to forget for the Midlands' three Premier League teams. Two of them | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
sacked a manager and not one of them is safe from the relegation battle. | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
So is there any cause for optimism? Nick Clitheroe reports. There have | :04:08. | :04:17. | |
been many more downs than ups for the supporters of Aston Villa, Stoke | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
City and West Bromwich Albion in 2013. All three will see in the New | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
Year in the bottom half of the Premier League and will be | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
desperately hoping for a better 2014. Statistics show that both | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
Stoke and Albion were among the worst performing league clubs in | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
England in the last 12 months ` winning less than a point per game | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
in 2013. That cost Tony Pulis his job at Stoke and Steve Clarke his | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
post at the Hawthorns ` where they're still searching for a | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
permanent replacement. For me it's been a tough two weeks. A real | :04:48. | :04:55. | |
examination. We've come through a difficult period. The players have | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
responded positively. Aston Villa fans can hardly be complacent. They | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
only won just over a point per game in 2013 and that figure drops | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
significantly for home matches. Manager Paul Lambert says he's only | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
18 months into a project to rebuild the club on a sustainable basis, but | :05:12. | :05:21. | |
how long will that project take? How long I'm given. That's the bottom | :05:22. | :05:36. | |
line. I don't think you need to be... Nothing's certain in football. | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
But in football, hope always springs eternal and fans of all three clubs | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
will turn up again tomorrow believing 2014 will finally be their | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
year. The weather forecast now with | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
Shefali Oza, and Shefali I guess it's more rain again? It's not | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
looking good. Shefali Oza, and Shefali I guess | :05:54. | :06:02. | |
it's more rain again? It's not We're being battered and bruised by rain. | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
Low pressure developing in the Atlantic. The two days to take note | :06:10. | :06:20. | |
of are tomorrow and Friday. Tonight it will be wet and windy. Quiet now, | :06:21. | :06:32. | |
but winds whipping up later. The north of the region may get off | :06:33. | :06:40. | |
lightly. Heaviest showers at the stroke of midnight unfortunately! | :06:41. | :06:48. | |
Winds picking up and a vile start to the new year. We've got warnings out | :06:49. | :07:04. | |
for an inch of rain. Gusts of 40 to 50 miles per hour. The rain is still | :07:05. | :07:16. | |
going through tomorrow evening. The whole lot will clear by Thursday. A | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
few showers then. Friday wet and windy. Thanks. Goodbye for now. | :07:23. | :07:33. | |
Good evening. It looks like mother nature may provide her own | :07:34. | :07:45. | |
pyrotechnics in the run-up to bid night tonight. We have some heavy | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
showers in western parts, starting to ease a bit across Scotland and | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
Northern Ireland. But the showers further south are heavier, with some | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
flashes of lightning as they move eastwards. They do get a bit more | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
hit and miss as we head towards midnight, but a greater chance of | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
getting wet in the south as we move into 2014. Cardiff and London could | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
see heavy downpours. Further north, you could be greeting the New Year | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
on | :08:17. | :08:17. |
