16/01/2014 North West Tonight

are good evening and welcome to North West Tonight. Our top story:

Manchester's Chief Constable is to be prosecuted after the fatal

shooting of an unarmed man by police. The victim's family give

their reaction. Also tonight: And bottom of the class for Blackpool's

secondary schools as they are described as dire. Senior

politicians pay tribute to within sure MP Paul Goggins at his funeral

in Salford. He used what power he had in the service of those who had

none, he was a champion of the underdog. And what do these have in

common with the will be of pants? Find out later. `` humble pair of

pants. The Chief Constable of Greater Manchester, Sir Peter Fahy,

is to be prosecuted following the fatal shooting of Anthony Granger.

The 36`year`old was unarmed when he was shot dead by police in

Warrington in 2012. The marksman who pulled the trigger will not face

charges and Anthony's family have said they are disappointed further

action will not be taken against him. There are still questions

around why Mr Granger was shot. Nina Warhurst has been following the

story. Anthony Grainger was unarmed when he was killed by a single

bullet to the chest as he sat at the wheel of the car. Police were

investigating the planned armed robbery and the marksman insisted he

was acting in self defence. Though it's still not known why he opened

fire. Today the Crown Prosecution Service, who considered if their is

enough evidence body trial, decided not to charge the person who pulled

the trigger at instead decided to press charges around series

deficiencies in preparation for the police operation. Deficiencies which

meant Mr Granger was exposed to unnecessary risk. He takes

responsibility for failings in the organisation, the boss. Peter Fahy

is accused of breaching health and safety regulations because he is the

man in charge. Some feel those charges do not go far enough. There

was massive disappointment which has turned to anger now that nobody will

be held responsible. The family of the dead man say they have also been

left in the dark about what exactly happened the day that he did, but

made them think that he was alive? The independent pleas complaints

commission, which has already concluded, could well and is those

questions posed by the family. All this will complicate probably delay

the inquest which was due to open in April. Immigration officers have

launched an investigation after a child and five adults were found in

the back of a lorry in Bootle. It was stopped after members of the

public reported hearing banging and shouting coming from the back of the

vehicle. Our reporter is in Bootle now. What happened this morning

Police say that around nine o'clock we started to get reports of banging

and shouting coming from the back of a lorry that was being driven

through Liverpool. The lorry was then picked up here in brutal and

stopped on Brewster Road at the bus stop behind me. Officers then

surrounded the lorry, they went into the back of it and found two women,

the men and the 12`year`old child who are all believed to be from

Iran. What have eyewitnesses said? The lorry driver who was asked to

get out of the lorry to open the van appeared very reluctant to do so. He

opened the door wider for the lease and the began to bring out the

group. They went over to offer hot drinks and learned that that point

that the group had left home 18 days ago and had been travelling in the

lorry for 16 days. The word is scheduled, they had been on the road

for hours and hours, I felt really sorry them. `` the wearer

dishevelled. What happens next? The police are still conducting

interviews and in cases like this where people have travelled for such

a long time they could be distressed. What needs to be

discovered is entered the lorry, what route they took through Europe

to get to the UK and whether this was their destination or whether

they were heading elsewhere. They also want to know if the entered the

lorry voluntarily or F they were the victims of human trafficking. They

might ask for asylum or be sent home. An investigation into the

murder of two`year`old Rio Smedley from Bolton has concluded they were

missed opportunities to help the child but that his death could not

have been prevented. Rio died in April 2012 after being attacked by

his mother's partner, Daniel Rigby, who was later jailed for life. Rio's

mother, Kirsty Smedley, was jailed for four years for allowing or

causing the death of a child. 150 causing the death of a child. 1 0

Police searching for two pupils who ran away from a Lancashire boarding

school to the Caribbean say they have a good idea of their location.

Stonyhurst College students Edward Bunyan and Gainiyeva, who are both

16, were last seen at Manchester Airport. `` Indira Gainiyeva. Police

say the pupils are safe in the Dominican Republic but officers are

physically not with them. A woman who claims the Coronation Street

actor will broach raped her said she waited nearly 50 years to come

forward because she thought no one would believe her. `` Bill Roach.

She said she was still at school when he first attacked her. What

finally made her go to the police? She is 62 years old now and says the

first time she was attacked by the actor was in 1967 on a school day,

after she had finished school. She said she did not tell anyone because

she did not think anyone would believe her. After hearing about the

Jimmy Savile situation she realised hers was not an unique situation and

she told her son about it and then decided to go to the police. In the

late 60s Bill Roach lived in Haslingden, he had to homes there

and she claims she was raped once in each of them. On the first occasion

she was invited into his home and attacked any bedroom, on the second

situation she went willingly into his other house and was raped there.

She was asked why she had not tried to escape and she said when somebody

is overpowering you there is no escape. They are a lot bigger than

you and you go into shock and just freeze, it is a horrible experience.

She was asked if she fancied him at the time and she said no but she got

the impression he fancied himself. She said he made her skin crawl.

This afternoon his lawyer cross`examined the woman and asked

her why she was so unclear about the precise timing of that first

attacked. When she first went to the police she thought she was 14 years

old, then thought she was 13 and now says she was 15. The lawyer asked

with due not remember precisely when you were raped? The case continues.

An inquest has heard there was no evidence that the woman who died

intended to kill herself. `` Primark. The Liverpool coroner

secondary schools but there is a report which says it is not working.

The say they are making efforts against constant government

cutbacks. This school is said to be inadequate, another one here is

requiring improvement, two are classed as good. Overall improvement

is needed but Ofsted says the Blackpool Council arrangements for

making them happen are not good enough. The key weaknesses are the

fact the council is not being significantly challenging and Al

Ewing the input of the report. What difference it is making in the

progress and achievement of young children in secondary remains to be

seen. Chances of going to a good school the trees considerably at age

11. Second the attainment has been significantly lower than nationally

for three years. The proportion of pupils with five good GCSEs in maths

and English has declined in 201 . pupils with five good GCSEs in maths

and English has declined in 201 . There is a lack of robust targets

for teachers to aim for, there is not enough challenge and too much

support. In a statement, Blackpool Council said it does not accept its

school improvement service is ineffective. It acknowledges results

need to improve. It says this service has suffered from government

cuts and it is expecting to improve standards constantly with less money

and fewer resources. The council says it will recruit two new school

improvement officers. The council will be inspected again in nine to

12 months. Still to come: What have the fighter jet and a pair of neck

pants. And finding out more about the life of a Lancashire

suffragette. A woman who was savaged by a dog while coming to the rescue

of a teenage boy says she wants to take legal action over the attack.

She has lost all feeling in the fingers of one hand and says she

needs counselling after the animal mauled her in the street. She also

praised her neighbour who kill the animal with a kitchen knife. It is a

week since she was mauled outside her home but she is only just out of

hospital. The dog broker hand into places and severed an artery. I

dream about it every night no matter what. Even the smallest dog I can

see and my heart starts racing, I start sweating and shaking. I am

taking it to court. If that dog had the muscle on him this would not

have happened to me. A 14`year`old boy Zoe was trying to save had been

bitten by the rich back, it had clamped its jaw around his arm and

was going for his throat. I did not even think, I just ran over and I

was trying to cool the dog off of him. I did not care what happened to

me as long as he was released. But the animal turned on her, to but

they were only saved because of the neighbour killing the dog with a

kitchen knife. What do you think about him? If he had not come out I

would have lost my arm. He is an amazing guy. I cannot thank him

enough. He claimed the boy she helped is also amazing, he brought

her a thank you card. Without our intervention and the help of her

neighbour things could have been far worse. That must have been a

terrifying experience for all concerned. Senior politicians were

in Salford today saying goodbye to a colleague and friend. He died last

week after collapsing at the end of December. Our political editor has

more. Hundreds came to Salford Cathedral to say a reluctant

goodbye. The cortege carrying all goblins arrived at midday. He

tribal of politicians, utterly committed to his party but able to

work with and mix among others. He was elected in 1997 and won trust

what I could do. He would steer me on the right path. When I launched

my bid for the Labour Party he guided me along the way. A keen

sincerity of the tributes paid. His wife did the reading and his

children top about who he was and who he was to them. All of the

thoughts from the Labour Party today are for the family. We also feel we

have lost one of our own and one of our best. The people he worked with

and new saw what he was capable of achieving. He was always getting his

words and ideas across without the kind of aggression that is often a

feature of the British political system. I will miss him very much

indeed. One person remembered him today as the man of great judgement.

Tributes to the and everybody was unequivocal and infuses of their

trees for him. `` a. We have been hearing about the importance of this

striker after he scored within one minute of his return from injury.

City really thrashed back burn Rovers last night. The goal tally of

City went to a remarkable 99 for this. Manchester City almost looked

like they had an extra gear to click into but it took them a while to

reach top speed. Their opponents played well for the first half. As

soon as the first of these two goals were scored it seemed inevitable the

blues would go through. And this man popped up to make it 21 for the

season. The Bosnian finished this one emphatically for his first

before the injured player came off of the bench and the Argentine

needed just 50 seconds and two touches to announce his return. No

wonder the manager was glad to have him back. A fifth goal went in

against the dog had Rovers team. him back. A fifth goal went in

against the dog had Rovers team I am really happy. I do not think the

difference between the two teams were five goals today. We played

against a really strong team. Blackburn can at least focus on

hopefully getting promoted from the championship. This question has got

people going this afternoon. John Spencer pointed out the fighter jet

we pointed out earlier was a Eurofighter, not the tornado. The

big question is what does the defence of the realm have in common

with pants? They are at full stretch, not pants and wind! It is

printing. We will get their eventually! Indeed. It is the

advancing 3`D printing. Firms large and small are now printing the road

dots on rigs rather than using a traditional method. This industrial

revolution is saving time and money. And Arrieta tornado reaching for the

sky, it is likely some of its parts were made on a 3`D printer. This is

a 3`D part flown for the first time on a fast jet. Instead of making and

shipping the parts they can now be e`mailed to a war zone. The

information transferred owing the line to the printer that might be on

base at Afghanistan can see the component printed off then it is

available for the year forced to use. There is a cost advantage. We

have savings of 1.2 million on one item like this. Powder, adhesive and

has become big business. There are applications in health and medical

sciences. The applications and the utility and technology is moving

with that. Architecture is another industry to use it. With this 3`D

printer all I have to do is press print and then they will see what we

have got by tea`time. This couple have found another application for

is incredible. It is, it is completely solid. I just did not

know what to expect. Cheerful! It is astonishing. It probably heart Mark

to have to print that out, being a Liverpool fan. He has a season

ticket at/! Split loyalties. Here's a confused boy! You may remember the

90s band Chumbawamba now this man has turned his hand to something

different. He wrote this story for theatre after a chance discovery in

a suitcase. Women will never change anything ever, we're happy as

mothers and wives. By macro it tells the story of a mill girl galvanised

by injustice. The suffragette is from Norwich but the suffragette in

the play is from Nelson. It was the socialist republic of Nelson. I

thought it would be good to set it their in the pipe`smoking of Labour

meetings. They were the suffragettes and mill girls. This woman found a

box in her attic revealing her grandmother had been a militant

suffragette. This is the hunger strike medal. I find out she was

responsible for damaging pictures in the National Gallery and as a result

she went into prison. When she was in their she did the longest food

and water strike of 15 days and she was also force`fed. Women will never

change anything! He has been writing about politics for 30 years which

began when he formed his pop band. He is carrying on what I have been

doing for 30 years which is trying to make political ideas or radical

ideas, try to make them into into attainment. The show is at the

loudly for two nights and then goes on to. `` Lowry. It is the one`woman

show. A lot of words to remember. Now the weather. I wonder if the

stadium would look any different? That is not the question, the

question is the weather. Good evening. Guess today we saw

exceptionally high temperatures for this time of the year. We are back

to normal, seven or eight Celsius. He will keep these type of

temperatures over the next few days, holding onto lots of cloud. We are

expecting some rain on Saturday. I expecting some rain on Saturday I

had promised plenty of showers through the South morning and into

this afternoon, we have not seen so many of them because they

disintegrated over the IDC. They did not quite make landfall which is

good news. Showers sneaking in this evening and as we head to don a

cluster of showers will work in through the morning. It will become

easy as well. The temperatures will be very mild. Five or six Celsius at

dawn. For tomorrow, the afternoon is not looking too bad. You will be

some dry spells in the South during the morning. Some heavy showers

around the course. There will be some bright spells in the south The

some bright spells in the south. The showers continue across Lancashire,

Cumbria and the isle of man. It is not quite so windy. Temperatures

more of the same, around eight Celsius the hive. Tomorrow night a

few showers initially but they will fade away. We will see some fog

patches and clear skies. Temperatures will fall very close to

freezing. For the weekend, if you plan to be outdoors, Saturday is not

the best day. A band of rain will work in. The rain will clear away on

Sunday. Thank you. If you can 3`D print underwear surely you can do

dresses, and shoes! Imagine the money you could save, I want to buy

that printer! And someone on Facebook said she would print out a

David Beckham! Good night.
