Good evening. Welcome to Northwest Tonight with Roger Johnson. | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
Ranvir Singh. Cumbrians debate plans to dump nuclear waste | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
underground. The people are among many attending | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
meetings to find out what exactly that huge nuclear dump would mean | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
for west Cumbria. Also tonight: A reward is offered for the handbag | :00:26. | :00:32. | |

Another twist in the Amir Khan story. The man in the hat, the man | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
Khan accused of interfering with judges during his world title | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
defeat last month has spoken to the BBC. What's he been keeping under | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
that hat? Find out later. When the Government decided it | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
needed to build an underground storage facility for nuclear waste | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
it approached councils across the country to see if any would be | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
prepared to take it. So far, Cumbria has been the only place to | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
express an interest. Today, the first in a series of | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
public meetings has started aimed at telling people who live and work | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
in the area more about the plans and here they are, well the storage | :01:49. | :01:59. | |
centre would be between 200 and 1,000 metres underground, between | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
2.5 and 9.5 square miles in size and the amount of earth excavated | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
will be the the same amount moved during the building of the Channel | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
Tunnel. Our reporter is there for that meeting. Tell us why the | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
Government needs this? Basically, because the UK's nuclear power | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
stations are producing a lot of waste. At the moment the bulk of | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
that waste is held above ground at Sellafield. However, the Government | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
believes it would be safer to bury this stuff deep underground for | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
many hundreds of years. Hence, it's decision to try to build this big | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
underground nuclear dumping facility. If it came to west | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
Cumbria what would that mean? That's what the people of this area | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
have been asking. If there is one thing Cumbria has in abundance, | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
it's wide open spaces and space is just what the Government needs for | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
its proposed new underground nuclear waste dump. | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
The whole project is based on voluntaryism, so any community can | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
express an interest and participate. So far, west Cumbria is the only | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
area that's expressed an interest. Of course Cumbria has a track | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
record of dealing with nuclear waste, 70% of the waste generated | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
by the UK's nuclear power stations is currently held at Sellafield. So, | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
would this part of the world be the best place to site a huge | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
underground nuclear dump? We are asking people in Cumbria whether or | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
not they're interested in looking for potential sites. The size of | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
the project is immense. It would cover an area of around 9.5 square | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
miles, that's almost the size of York. The underground chambers will | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
be up to 1,000 metres deep. Realistically, many communities | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
going to volunteer to have a nuclear waste dump on their patch? | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
There is a lot of benefits that go with having the facility, not least | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
of sweu the employment. This meeting is one of several | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
consultations that have been organised across Cumbria over the | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
weeks and after this gathering opinions were mixed. We have most | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
of the waste at Sellafield now, so might as well store it here. | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
The Lake District has not got a suitable place. The village of | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
Drigg is around a half mile drive north. It's had a low level nuclear | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
waste depost for decades but the proposal is for something digger | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
than this and the waste handled would be more dangerous. There is a | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
much better option, and that is that the waste is retained at the | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
site of origin, ie at Sellafield, or nuclear power stations, and | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
dealt with there. This is a debate still very much in its infancy. | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
The plans are huge by anybody's estimatations, so what happens | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
after these consultations? Once they've finished the the | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
consultation, the three councils will then have to decide whether | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
they're going to go into the siting process, that means saoeufing a -- | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
identifying a site, there are various tests and geological | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
explorations to be carried out before any building work could | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
begin. They're looking at building work not starting for at least 15 | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
years. So quite some way down the line and by no means decided yet. | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
Thank you very much. I am sure you will be back there many times in | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
the next few months. Next, it was a crime which outraged | :05:24. | :05:32. | |
a community. 79-year-old Nellie Geraghty died after a brutal | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
mugging in Oldham last year. The reason she fought off attackers was | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
in her bag she carried her husband's ashes. For 17 years she | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
hadn't left the house without them. Two teenager boys and a 27-year-old | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
-- 37-year-old man has been released on police bail. Now an | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
anonymous donor has offered �5,000 to anyone who can help find the | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
handbag. It could help to lead to a murder conviction. | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
Nellie's daughter says it was her love for her husband and her | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
stubborn nature that made the final moments of her life so awful. | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
Attacked near her Shaw home in broad daylight, she refused to let | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
go of the bag that contained her husband's ashes. And it cost Nellie | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
her life. Today an anonymous donor has offered �5,000 for the recovery. | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
He is appalled by the attack on Nellie and wanted to do something | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
to help. He realised the importance of the handbag to our investigation | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
and more importantly to the family to have it returned. Nellie was | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
well known and loved in Shore. In November, hundreds came together in | :06:41. | :06:50. | |
an effort to find Frank's ashes. grandpha knew Nellie from her shop. | :06:50. | :06:59. | |
So we came down to help. But the community was left disappointed. | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
Police Described the initial response as overwhelming and hope | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
told the donor they hoped a reward would not be necessary but there is | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
still no sign of the bag but police believe somebody knows exactly | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
where it is. Nellie's family has now said goodbye but it would mean | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
everything to them to bury Frank's ashes with her. Police say somebody | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
must know how a 79-year-old woman came to be left seriously injured | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
alone and unconscious, and they hope they'll now find the courage | :07:28. | :07:35. | |
to help. The family of a Liverpool teenager | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
killed in a street attack nine years ago is hoping a possible | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
change in the law may finally bring his killers to justice. Andrew | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
Jones died when someone punched him and he cracked his head on the | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
pavement when he fell. A number of people saw what | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
happened to Andrew and now MPs say the law on gang-related kiltings | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
needs to be -- killings needs simplified. | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
His family say Andrew Jones loved life so much there weren't you are | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
in enough hours in the day for him. One man was taken to court over his | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
his death but the case case collapsed. Other people were at the | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
scene but Andrew's family think they're reluctant to talk to police | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
in case they're charged with a joint enterprise offence, that | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
would would mean they could face a murder charge even if they did not | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
strike the fate apl blow. Andrew's -- fatal blow. Andrew's mum says if | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
the law were changed people might come forward. If they assist the | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
police in finding the victim's murderer and put that victim, that | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
murderer away, then they shouldn't have to go to jail. Andrew's family | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
gave evidence to a committee of MPs which has now said the law on joint | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
enterprise needs to be simplified. Commentators think the law on joint | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
enterprise has two main problems, not only are witnesses to crimes | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
like the attack on Andrew reluctant to come forward in case they're | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
accused of a serious offence like murder, but juries can be confused | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
about whether to convict someone who, after all, may only have been | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
a by-stander. It's an all or nothing situation. You are either, | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
this is what the judges tell the juries, you are either completely | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
guilty, or you are not. There's no tapering of this. And that's a big | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
problem. Joint enterprise is in the news because through it two men | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
were convicted of Stephen Lawrence's murder in London. | :09:29. | :09:36. | |
Knowing you could be convicted for being at the scene of a cream may | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
deter some people from gang membership. But the law needs to be | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
changed to work for the family. North West has seen the second | :09:47. | :09:49. | |
biggest rise in unemployment in the country. The number of people out | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
of work in the three months to November increased by 25,000. The | :09:53. | :10:02. | |
unemployment rate in the region now stands at 8.9 pefrs. --%. | :10:02. | :10:08. | |
Unilever workers at Port Sunlight, Warrington and Chester and Trafford | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
have been on strike today, in protest at changes to their | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
pensions. They'll join a series of rolling strikes lasting ten days. | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
Airbus says it's like throeu create up to 600 jobs, some of them based | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
at its Broughton plant. 6,000 people are currently employed there. | :10:28. | :10:34. | |
The editor of the Manchester Evening News, Maria McGeoghan, says | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
she's very concerned about how the reputation of all newspaper | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
journalists has been damaged by the recent problems over phone hacking | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
and unethical behaviour. She says she's been giving evidence at the | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
Leveson inquiry into press standards and said there's been a | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
backlash against all newspapers. I have lost count now of the number | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
of times I have been asked how how you hack a phone or the going rate | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
for paying off a policeman is and it's not funny any more. I am very | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
concerned about the perception that we are all using the same methods | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
and we are all doing something shady. I am concerned about that. | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
When the BBC tphoupsed eutsz big move here to Salford it was hailed | :11:14. | :11:20. | |
as good news for jobs in the area. More than 1800 people work here in | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
this building for departments that have come here from London to | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
Manchester. But the BBC has now admitted that | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
only 26 jobs have gone to people from Salford itself. The local MP | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
says that's not good enough. It was about shifting the BBC's | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
focus from London. But it was about regeneration, too. When North West | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
tonight moved into media City, the BBC's top man in the north | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
emphasised jobs. There will be about 3,000 jobs for the north of | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
England. That's going to create employment, investment, training, | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
good for the skills sector. Most of the 1800 staff here working for | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
departments such as BBC Sport, 5 Live, have come from London. There | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
are just 689 brand new jobs. Of these, only 26 have gone to people | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
from Salford. There is more they can do to get | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
links with the local community. Morrisons supermarket have opened a | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
store in the same area and we have something like 80% of those jobs | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
from the local estate, from Salford. I know that the BBC's not retail | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
and it's very different, but they can do better than 3%, I am sure. | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
The BBC says it's early days. have moved to an area without an | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
established media skills base, so our commitment, and it's a long- | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
term commitment s to grow the skills base in this area so our | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
future and our commitment to the people in the area is about | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
developing their skills, giving them employment experience and | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
giving them access to what is really exciting jobs market. This | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
is the building where we make North West tonight and across the square | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
here at the far end is the media department of Salford University. | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
Could that be the bridge between Salford and the BBC? | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
We do get a lot of local students, students very much focused in the | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
North West as well that are coming to the university that have that | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
interest in the media, that want to work in media city. There may not | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
have been the skills before but now we are working with everybody to | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
make sure there is that skills set, those people are ready for jobs. | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
The BBC has introduced two apprenticeship schemes to help | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
teenagers from Greater Manchester find their way into jobs like these | :13:31. | :13:41. | |
:13:41. | :13:49. | ||
Some of the services. Despite assurances made that the management | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
there are making approve France. They announced investigations into | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
critical care across the trust last night. | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
I am not sure that I accept that we have failed in our job. We have | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
identified a number of issues that need to be fixed. That is a severe | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
challenge for all of us. But the end of the day, the most important | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
part of a hospital is safe services for patients. I think the | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
management team are very focused on trying to make sure we get things | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
right and that we turn the situation around. | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
The investigation into the critical care will be carried out by the | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
Care Quality Commission. A little earlier, I asked the organisation's | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
boss how concerned they are about the standards of care provided by | :14:34. | :14:41. | |
the Trust. We visited the hospital in December. | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
We identified a very similar concerns to those we have picked up | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
in maternity services. Those concerns were around staffing, the | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
deployment of staff, the way they were trained, their skills and | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
experience. We also had some concerns around the systems that | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
the trust had in place to monitor risk, assess risk and escalate risk | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
to ensure that there is good patient care. How worried should | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
patients be generally? This trust has got a number of investigations | :15:10. | :15:15. | |
into a number of different areas of its work ongoing at the moment. | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
Patients will inevitably be concerned. Is it safe for people to | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
go to hospital? If there were immediate concerns, we would be | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
taking immediate action. We have some robust enforcement powers. We | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
have already use those powers within the trust in relation to | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
maternity services because we issued a warning notice. The | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
continued to monitor that. If, as part of the investigation, we | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
determine are more serious concerns, then we will invoke our enforcement | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
powers. The Care Quality Commission is a relatively new body. You were | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
investigated at the end of last year as to whether or not you were | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
fit for purpose. How can patients be satisfied that you have the | :16:01. | :16:06. | |
necessary skills, qualities, experience to do a good job? We are | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
a new regulatory power. We have now been in operation for the last few | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
years. We have had some difficulties. But we are moving on. | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
We know what those concerns are. We have put those concerns right. I | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
want members of the public to be reassured. We have picked these | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
concerns at. That is why we have been both our investigation powers. | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
We can restrict some of the activity is at the hospital if we | :16:32. | :16:40. | |
feel that those concerns are immediate. | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
Her place on the sofa has been taken by Tony, a who are is year | :16:45. | :16:48. | |

And more dramatic twists in the Amir Khan story. | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
Yes, in a moment we're actually going to hear for the first time | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
from the infamous Man In The Hat who was caught apparently | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
interfering at ringside. But first, let's just remind ourselves where | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
we stand. Amir lost his WBA and IBF world titles to Lamont Peterson in | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Washington last month. He thought the result unfair and the WBA have | :17:08. | :17:14. | |
already ordered a rematch. The IBF were due to hear his appeal today, | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
weren't they? But that was cancelled overnight. | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
Yes. Amir's promoters pulled out saying the key official at the | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
centre of the controversy was not being called. Amir now says he'll | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
never fight for an IBF title again. This all began because Amir thought | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
the judges and the referee had not been fair. Then he pointed out the | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
Man In The Hat, seen at ringside, apparently getting involved with | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
the judges. He was revealed to be Mustafa Ameen, and today, he has | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
given us his first interview. Here's Richard Askam. | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
It's the latest twist in a saga that has played out like a | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
Hollywood film. Unexpected defeat for the big star. Unanswered | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
questions and unexplained characters accused of pulling the | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
strings. Today, in an exclusive first interview, the mystery man in | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
question, Mustafa Ameen, seen here in the hat, told us why he was seen | :18:06. | :18:16. | |

talking to one of the judges throughout the fight. I have looked | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
at the supervising official scorecards on countless occasions. | :18:20. | :18:27. | |
I looked down and I saw the score. There was an error. He was off by a | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
point or two. The judge in question, Michael | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
Welsh, wasn't due to be at the IBF hearing. One of the main reasons | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
Amir's camp pulled out. They say they're now concentrating on Amir's | :18:36. | :18:46. | |
next fight, which they hope will be a rematch with Lamont Peterson. | :18:46. | :18:52. | |
Somewhere neutral. Someone like Las Vegas or Los Angeles. Either way, | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
Mustafa Ameen insists he isn't to blame. | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
How we have got to this stage is complicated. Here's a summary. On | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
December 10th, Amir lost his two world titles to Lamont Peterson. On | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
the 19th, he launched an official appeal to have the decision | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
overturned. January 6th, he accused an unidentified man at ringside of | :19:06. | :19:13. | |
interfering with officials. On the 13th, the WBA ordered a rematch. | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
Late last night, the IBF hearing was cancelled. | :19:17. | :19:27. | |

Amir's camp are studying Ameen's comments before making a response. | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
It still does not answer what he was doing pain -- pointing at the | :19:34. | :19:36. | |
judges' cards. Bailiffs have given one of the | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
country's oldest football clubs, Northwich Victoria, just three days | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
to leave their ground after it was sold to a mystery businessman. Vics, | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
formed in 1874, are currently pushing for promotion from the | :19:44. | :19:47. | |

There was no miracle for Macclesfield Town in last night's | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
FA Cup replay. The Silkmen travelled to Premier League Bolton | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
Wanderers, hoping to cause a shock in the third-round replay. But | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
Macclesfield were a goal down within 40 seconds when Kevin Davies | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
struck. Martin Petrov added the second. Bolton now host Swansea in | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
the fourth round. It was important that we got a home win tonight. If | :20:26. | :20:34. | |
we match that at home, we would be halfway up the league. We want to | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
move ourselves up the league. Usually, when you play Premiership | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
teams, I think it is testament to how we have done and how far the | :20:46. | :20:56. | |
:20:56. | :21:03. | ||
club has progressed. We have played them three times this year. | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
Being a professional footballer means you can afford the best in | :21:05. | :21:09. | |

the birth of his children, Manchester United captain Nemanja | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
Vidic naturally wanted the best care. And he and his wife decided | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
they could get that at their local NHS hospital in Manchester, | :21:17. | :21:27. | |

Wythenshawe. They are about to welcome baby number three into the | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
world. When they were asked to open a new delivery suite, it was a good | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
a chance to look around. As captain of one of the world's | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
biggest football clubs, he is used to having add to the -- admiration | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
from his fans. This one seemed oblivious to his first and very | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
famous visitor. It was a different story for the grown-up staff and | :21:50. | :21:57. | |
visitors at the new delivery suite today. They took a keen interest in | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
the new 10 bed facility with a two sons born here already, there will | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
be making it a hat-trick in a matter of weeks. Obviously, first | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
of all, it was because of the staff. The people working here. They are | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
rather a lot of new machines. A lot of new things going around. We're | :22:17. | :22:25. | |
will be even more comfortable here. These are trying times for Nemanja | :22:25. | :22:31. | |
Vidic, ruled out by injury. It could not be better for his wife. | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
It is not like then going to be scared when I go in Labour Party is | :22:35. | :22:40. | |

nappies and white beads? At the moment, I am not playing football. | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
But I do not sleep well at night, it will not cause problems. I think | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
he is volunteering for some night feeds. I am trying to be nice | :22:53. | :22:58. | |

from Argentina, Canada and Ireland. It is said that there was not a | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
