:00:12. > :00:16.They're accused of lavishing money on air travel. The TaxPayers'
:00:16. > :00:22.Alliance calls it shocking that council chiefs say they can justify
:00:22. > :00:27.every penny. I am absolutely against junketing. Most flights are
:00:27. > :00:34.for social workers to go abroad to speak to families or accompany
:00:34. > :00:39.children being returned to their Farm is. Also -- families. Also did
:00:39. > :00:44.a lack of funding help contribute to the death of this vulnerable
:00:44. > :00:51.man? Unfortunately, lack of funding, these instances have become more
:00:51. > :00:56.frequent. Plus, Chinese investors look at taking over AstraZeneca.
:00:56. > :01:06.And I will find out who has been letting off his frustration and
:01:06. > :01:12.
:01:12. > :01:14.using this as a multi- gym at Calke Good evening. First tonight, a
:01:15. > :01:17.pressure group that campaigns for lower taxes has criticised councils
:01:17. > :01:20.in our region for spending more than �100,000 on flights abroad.
:01:20. > :01:22.The TaxPayers' Alliance says it believes many trips aren't
:01:22. > :01:30.necessary and local authorities should be more responsible with
:01:30. > :01:39.their budgets. But councils have vigorously defended their spending.
:01:39. > :01:43.Sarah Teale's been looking behind the statistics. Several councils in
:01:43. > :01:49.the East Midlands are accused of being sky high spenders on flights
:01:49. > :01:55.overseas. But council leaders say there have not been any jolly is
:01:55. > :01:58.abroad and they are spending justified amounts. The tax payers
:01:58. > :02:03.alliance say Leicestershire County Council are the third highest
:02:03. > :02:09.spending in the Midlands. In the past two years, they spent more
:02:09. > :02:14.than �26,000 on air travel. Most of it went on sending two children
:02:14. > :02:19.with extremely severe dyslexia to a special school in Newcastle,
:02:19. > :02:23.another �900 went towards sending young carers who look after their
:02:23. > :02:27.parents on a trip to Paris. Parents have parental choice and also we
:02:27. > :02:31.have to think what is in the best interests of children who need
:02:31. > :02:37.special care. As long as it is not hideously expensive, we do have a
:02:38. > :02:40.duty to care for children in our care. We are not referred to as
:02:41. > :02:49.corporate parents. It is not generosity in my view, it is
:02:49. > :02:55.necessary. Nottingham City Council was also a big spender, coming 4th
:02:55. > :02:58.in the table. �4,000 was spent on a trip to Boston and �2,000 on a trip
:02:58. > :03:03.to Shanghai. But the council says most overall travel has been to
:03:03. > :03:07.boost the city's economy. They say they have been supporting
:03:07. > :03:09.Nottingham firms looking to win contracts abroad and they have been
:03:09. > :03:14.promoting the City, to encourage investment here.
:03:14. > :03:21.Or so on the defensive was Nottinghamshire County Council
:03:21. > :03:26.which spent a total of �16,000 including nearly �3,000 on flights
:03:26. > :03:31.to Albania but that was a visit for the nine young people are helping
:03:31. > :03:34.deliver aid. I am absolutely against junketing.
:03:34. > :03:39.Most flights are social workers going abroad to either speak to
:03:39. > :03:43.families or accompany children returning to their families. I
:03:43. > :03:47.think it is important and well worth spending money on for of the
:03:47. > :03:51.TaxPayers' Alliance said Rutland county council had spent �10,000 on
:03:51. > :03:54.a flight to Ghana. The council told us that they had never spent the
:03:54. > :04:01.money. In fact the council said it was
:04:01. > :04:03.part of a youth volunteering Project to improve schools for the
:04:04. > :04:06.community there and it was funded completely by a government grant.
:04:06. > :04:13.Joining us now from the Taxpayers' Alliance is Emma Boon, its
:04:13. > :04:16.campaigns director. Good evening. Did the Taxpayers' Alliance realise
:04:16. > :04:22.much of the most expensive air travel was legally necessary under
:04:23. > :04:27.councils' obligations to care for children? We asked all councils
:04:27. > :04:30.across the Midlands what they were spending on flight, not for reasons
:04:30. > :04:34.for those and in some instances, councils provided that extra
:04:34. > :04:41.information. What we were trying to do is highlight that a lot of
:04:41. > :04:44.councils are spending money on flights and some are not. We up
:04:44. > :04:50.putting the data out for council tax payers to decide whether they
:04:51. > :04:54.think it is good value. I think you're a director speaks about
:04:54. > :05:02.council officers jetting around the world enjoying business class.
:05:02. > :05:06.in some instances, we did see there was a Premium economy and business
:05:06. > :05:10.class travel. Lincolnshire councils have said that and it is hard to
:05:11. > :05:14.justify that when you are looking at some examples. Some councils in
:05:14. > :05:18.the Midlands spent nothing on air travel so it is up to local
:05:18. > :05:23.taxpayers to decide if they think it was value-for-money. We are not
:05:23. > :05:26.saying that councils should not spend any money on any flight and
:05:26. > :05:30.your reporter looked into some of those which are justified but we
:05:31. > :05:34.are asking if they are really needed. You say that 29 councils
:05:34. > :05:43.did not spend anything but these are the smaller councils to do not
:05:43. > :05:46.have a duty as the other councils I believe it was Herefordshire
:05:46. > :05:50.Council who did not spend any money and that is a larger council.
:05:50. > :05:56.Largely speaking, they were smaller but let's be clear that not all of
:05:56. > :05:59.these flights that we have cited in our research work for caring for
:05:59. > :06:02.children or anything to do with that. You mentioned one in your
:06:02. > :06:07.report which was apparently to do with helping to boost the local
:06:07. > :06:12.economy. If you are trying to do that, why are you travelling abroad
:06:12. > :06:17.to do it? The to go back to the case we raised about the child, two
:06:17. > :06:23.children with dyslexia flown to specialist schools in Newcastle,
:06:23. > :06:27.there is nothing profligate about that, his there? This specific
:06:27. > :06:31.example... If that is the right treatment for those two children, I
:06:31. > :06:34.do not know the particulars of that case, that is something the council
:06:35. > :06:39.must look at to decide if it is the best value and choice for those
:06:39. > :06:42.children. Is it there another way they could do things? This is
:06:42. > :06:47.putting information into the public domain and it is the only way that
:06:47. > :06:53.tax payers can look at this and ask if this is the right choice for of
:06:53. > :06:56.Next tonight, it's emerged that Chinese investors are in talks to
:06:56. > :06:59.take over AstraZeneca. The Loughborough-based pharmaceutical
:06:59. > :07:04.giant is closing down production at the plant by the end of the year
:07:04. > :07:07.with the loss of 1,300 jobs. With the region's economy set to lose
:07:07. > :07:17.�45 million from the closure, hopes are high that new investors can be
:07:17. > :07:19.
:07:19. > :07:24.Loughborough, like many towns and cities, is struggling following the
:07:24. > :07:28.economic downturn. It came as a blow when one of the town's biggest
:07:28. > :07:35.employers, AstraZeneca, announced it was close with the loss of over
:07:35. > :07:39.1,000 jobs. -- it was too close. But there may be a glimmer of hope.
:07:39. > :07:43.Yesterday, a group of Chinese investors accompanied by members of
:07:44. > :07:49.the Chinese Government came to look at the site. I think this is a
:07:49. > :07:53.serious intention to probably purchase the site off AstraZeneca.
:07:53. > :07:57.There is an opportunity to bring some serious development back to
:07:57. > :08:02.the town. With the recession, finances are very tight. The fact
:08:02. > :08:06.we have now got a consortium of Anglo British investors is to be
:08:06. > :08:10.welcomed and I think there is a real opportunity to bring this site
:08:10. > :08:16.back to fruition and use it to drive economic development in the
:08:16. > :08:19.airy. With a workforce of over 1,300 people, AstraZeneca is the
:08:19. > :08:22.second biggest employer in town but it is said to close before the end
:08:22. > :08:25.of the year. Local people believe the impact will be massive. I think
:08:25. > :08:29.the firm is very important to Loughborough but I would like to
:08:29. > :08:33.see local jobs staying in the local economy. If that is the case, and
:08:33. > :08:40.they keep the business in the area and employ local people, that would
:08:40. > :08:46.certainly make a difference. employs a lot of people at and it
:08:46. > :08:49.would be a loss to the town if it goes. It would be a lot of people
:08:49. > :08:53.who are skilled and extremely skilled and it is important we keep
:08:53. > :08:56.that facility in Loughborough. faces competition from a rival site
:08:56. > :09:06.in Kent but it is hoped a decision on the future of the left beside
:09:06. > :09:09.
:09:09. > :09:16.will be secured soon. -- on the Still to come on the programme. A
:09:16. > :09:18.whole day's rain - a rare event, but is there more to come?
:09:18. > :09:27.outlook is cloudy and windy but the biggest problem tonight could be
:09:27. > :09:30.the fog. I will have more details later.
:09:31. > :09:36.A housing association says that the death of a man in Mansfield was a
:09:36. > :09:41.tragedy waiting to happen. The man, whose body was found on Tuesday,
:09:41. > :09:44.was John Paul Johnson. The organisation that was housing him
:09:44. > :09:47.says a lack of funding from the district council meant vulnerable
:09:48. > :09:54.people were put at risk. The council says funding had nothing to
:09:55. > :09:59.do with Mr Johnson's tragic death. James Roberson reports. The police
:09:59. > :10:04.were called to a house next to a takeaway on Chesterfield Road South
:10:04. > :10:08.in Mansfield on Tuesday morning. Forensic examinations have been
:10:08. > :10:12.extensive. The police confirmed today that the dead man was 42-
:10:12. > :10:17.year-old John Paul Johnson who died from chest injuries. The house
:10:17. > :10:21.occupied by a number of vulnerable people was run by a Medway Housing,
:10:21. > :10:25.an organisation specialising in helping such clients. They run
:10:25. > :10:32.other similar properties in Mansfield. They say they have had a
:10:32. > :10:36.two year dispute with the council which have left clients without the
:10:36. > :10:41.full support from care workers. They say they have had problems
:10:41. > :10:47.before with clients. I have got to be honest and I have to say it was
:10:47. > :10:50.looking like an accident waiting to happen. We used to put night staff
:10:50. > :10:57.on on a regular basis but with the lack of funding, these instances
:10:57. > :11:02.have become more frequent. Mansfield council reviewed the
:11:02. > :11:12.claim and say it will be used to pay for rent, not support workers.
:11:12. > :11:27.
:11:27. > :11:30.The police say two people arrested in connection with Mr Johnson's
:11:30. > :11:36.murder have been released without charge. A further three people have
:11:36. > :11:42.been released on bail while another three men aged 19, 24 and 29 are
:11:42. > :11:45.still being questioned. A serial killer who left the bodies
:11:45. > :11:50.of three schoolgirls in the East Midlands has been found guilty of a
:11:50. > :11:56.fourth murder, in Northern Ireland. Robert Black was at large for
:11:56. > :11:58.several years during the 1980s and 1990s. He's already been convicted
:11:58. > :12:01.of murdering Susan Maxwell, Caroline Hogg and Sarah Harper.
:12:01. > :12:05.Caroline was only five when Black dumped her body in this
:12:05. > :12:10.Leicestershire layby. Three years later, Sarah Harper was found dead
:12:10. > :12:17.in the River Trent in Nottingham. Police are looking for two men who
:12:17. > :12:20.sexually assaulted a 12-year-old girl. It happened on Maws Lane at
:12:20. > :12:23.Kimberley in Nottinghamshire at about 10:30 last night. Officers
:12:23. > :12:27.are trying to trace two teenagers who were both wearing bandanas. One

:12:31. > :12:34.Museum is to close for four months for refurbishment. Work starts next
:12:34. > :12:37.week on the gallery so that it'll be able to display more of its
:12:37. > :12:42.collection of paintings and drawings by the artist who was born
:12:42. > :12:45.in Derby. The gallery's due to re- open towards the end of February.
:12:45. > :12:52.Next tonight, a screening programme which has helped save lives is set
:12:52. > :12:55.to be rolled out across the country. The Leicester Royal Infirmary was
:12:55. > :12:57.one of the first hospitals to offer abdominal aortic aneurysm screening.
:12:57. > :13:07.Now the Health Secretary has announced a major roll-out is under

:13:10. > :13:14.Frank Greaves chat to the Health Secretary about how the screening
:13:14. > :13:17.programme saved his life. Frank from Leicester was one of the first
:13:17. > :13:23.people to be treated under the national scheme, the condition
:13:23. > :13:29.which often has no symptoms can be fatal if untreated. I was shocked.
:13:29. > :13:35.But if you take from that and the fact that my wife also came, was
:13:35. > :13:39.told that because of its size, I would have been dead in two years.
:13:39. > :13:47.Across the county, thousands of people are invited to be screened.
:13:47. > :13:53.There is a high take-up rate. 83% and lives have been saved. We have
:13:53. > :13:58.picked up 164 people with aneurisms. Out of those, just over 20 so far
:13:58. > :14:04.have been referred and undergone surgery. These are people that
:14:04. > :14:07.would have been not detected. And they would have stood very low
:14:07. > :14:11.chances of survival. The Health Secretary was in town to announce
:14:11. > :14:15.that the work being done in Leicester would be taken up by
:14:15. > :14:20.other hospitals having overcome concerns about the programme.
:14:20. > :14:24.clear that it is worth doing it. The evidence that came from the
:14:24. > :14:31.work here in Leicester and other places really demonstrated that.
:14:31. > :14:35.This is a ticking timebomb with a new but in the ultimate, it saves
:14:35. > :14:41.your life. Without the screening programme, he would not be here.
:14:41. > :14:46.is hoped that as the work is carried out across the country,
:14:46. > :14:49.around 3,000 lives per year will be More jobs are under threat after
:14:49. > :14:51.the owner of one of Nottingham's biggest nightclubs went into

:14:54. > :15:00.suffered because its main customers, who are aged 18-24, have been hit
:15:00. > :15:07.by high levels of unemployment. The company lost almost �200 million
:15:07. > :15:16.last year. Luminar recently put itself up for sale, but there

:15:19. > :15:22.Hussein which was toppled in Iraq failed to reach its reserve price
:15:22. > :15:25.at an auction in Derby. The bronze piece was obtained eight years ago
:15:25. > :15:34.by a former SAS officer who smuggled it into the UK. The top
:15:34. > :15:36.bid was �21,000. It's not known what will happen to the piece now.
:15:36. > :15:38.Breast cancer patients undergoing reconstructive surgery are now
:15:38. > :15:41.being offered the finishing touch in Derby. It's tattooing, a new
:15:41. > :15:46.service that until now meant patients having to travel to
:15:46. > :15:49.Nottingham to get it done. In the fourth of our series on breast
:15:49. > :15:59.cancer, our health correspondent Rob Sissons reports on one woman
:15:59. > :16:06.
:16:06. > :16:10.Nipple tattooing, it does not hurt and does not take long. It is a
:16:10. > :16:16.finishing touch to this woman's breast reconstruction. Did not hurt
:16:16. > :16:20.at all because the area is quite normal any way from the
:16:20. > :16:30.reconstruction, bringing the muscle from the back area. That is one of
:16:30. > :16:30.
:16:30. > :16:35.the procedures they do. It was brilliant. No Payne, nothing.
:16:35. > :16:41.medical tattooing. It is to place pigments within the skin around the
:16:41. > :16:48.reconstruction. We initially pigment the Arizona area of the
:16:48. > :16:52.nipple and the very last bit is the nipple area itself -- the area
:16:52. > :16:59.around the nipple. The team can match the pigments to the patient's
:16:59. > :17:09.skin colour. It can fade but the results should last year's. It is

:17:25. > :17:32.things to bring it back to normal and get rid of the cancer you have
:17:32. > :17:34.got. And the good news, patients like Liz can go home straight after
:17:34. > :17:39.the procedure that takes about one hour.
:17:39. > :17:49.Tomorrow night, we meet the cancer survivor offering other patients
:17:49. > :17:51.
:17:51. > :17:57.with different forms of the disease There is so much care out there, it
:17:57. > :18:03.is inspiring. For Liz was wonderful to do that as well and help others.
:18:03. > :18:06.Time for the sport. First tonight, Leicester City are
:18:06. > :18:11.edging closer to finding a new manager to replace Sven-Goran
:18:11. > :18:13.Eriksson. But who will it be? This evening it look likes there won't
:18:13. > :18:19.be an emotional return for a fans' favourite as Natalie Jackson
:18:19. > :18:23.reports. The newspapers are saying that
:18:23. > :18:27.Martin O'Neill has ruled himself out of the Leicester job. In the
:18:27. > :18:32.meantime, the two men in caretaker charge had been preparing the team
:18:32. > :18:40.for this weekend's game at West Ham. Academy director John Roy Keane and
:18:40. > :18:45.goalie coach Mike Starr will have been here before. It is like having
:18:45. > :18:50.your newborn baby and when it is sick, you give it back and say
:18:50. > :18:54.thank you very much. Fun at times but long-term, it ages you. It is
:18:54. > :18:59.certainly a pressure job. On Monday, Sven-Goran Eriksson was sacked
:18:59. > :19:03.after just one year in charge. Sven-Goran Eriksson was terrific
:19:03. > :19:10.around the football club and it is part and parcel of football clubs.
:19:10. > :19:15.It is difficult and you see it up and down the country. It is so cut-
:19:15. > :19:22.throats and we have to now move forward and the most important
:19:22. > :19:26.thing is getting the right response on Saturday. And what a night to be
:19:26. > :19:32.looking after. What do we have to say to the players? Not a lot, West
:19:32. > :19:42.Ham at West Ham. Fantastic games. Leicester City ambassador Alan
:19:42. > :19:48.Birchall started the club's Poppy Appeal and 20 has seen 22 managers.
:19:48. > :19:51.-- and has seen 22 managers. Nottingham Forest manager Steve
:19:52. > :19:54.Cotterill says it was a major coup to land new left back, Greg
:19:54. > :19:57.Cunningham. Cunningham has joined the Reds on an emergency loan from
:19:57. > :20:01.Manchester City and has been training with his new team-mates
:20:01. > :20:10.this week. And Cotterill believes the Republic of Ireland
:20:10. > :20:16.international will be a valuable addition to his squad. To get him
:20:16. > :20:20.in, he had a bad injury at Leicester, we are hoping he will
:20:20. > :20:29.bring his youthful exuberance to the team. Excellent footballer, a

:20:32. > :20:34.in football, if you're good enough, you're old enough. Schoolboy
:20:34. > :20:37.striker Mason Bennett who became Derby's youngest ever player to
:20:37. > :20:40.start a game at the weekend against Middlesbrough will be included in
:20:40. > :20:43.the Rams squad to face Portsmouth at Pride Park on Saturday.
:20:43. > :20:47.Onto ice hockey now, and the Nottingham Panthers returned to
:20:47. > :20:50.winning ways in the Elite League last night. They managed a
:20:50. > :20:53.comfortable 6-0 victory against the Dundee Stars. Matt Francis with
:20:54. > :20:56.this one in the first period and things really got going in the
:20:56. > :21:01.third. Four goals in as many minutes sets things up nicely for
:21:01. > :21:06.Panthers' top of the table clash against Belfast this weekend.
:21:06. > :21:09.Now it's rugby, but not as you know it. Fans could be in for a bit of a
:21:09. > :21:12.shock when Nottingham take on London Scottish at Meadow Lane on

:22:34. > :22:37.Autumn is that very busy time of the year when most of our wildlife
:22:37. > :22:40.is either setting off on a mammoth migration to warmer climes or
:22:40. > :22:43.building up food stores for the winter hibernation. But, as the
:22:43. > :22:53.Sally Goes Wild team soon discover, some of our East Midlands wildlife

:23:20. > :23:26.We are back again with head warden, Dale, who over the years had
:23:26. > :23:32.witnessed many displays at Calke Abbey. This is the main one who has
:23:32. > :23:37.repositioned with his group. They have found a tree with acorns
:23:37. > :23:41.underneath it. He is picking it up to eat it. Tell me, why is it that
:23:41. > :23:45.you have just got this one who seems to have not much competition.
:23:45. > :23:51.He is the biggest Stagg at the moment. We did have a couple of
:23:51. > :23:55.others but they were both killed last year. We are not sure if it
:23:55. > :24:00.was then fighting with him. The other stags are now younger. It
:24:00. > :24:10.does not appear as if he has much competition. It is simply based on

:24:13. > :24:21.Taking his frustration out on the grass. Is that what he is doing?
:24:21. > :24:26.Quite a bit of damage to this trio, why is that? A lot has fallen down
:24:26. > :24:36.and the box and stags have a bit of aggression and they get a chance to

:24:39. > :24:43.fight it. When they are fighting it, Although this may be play fighting
:24:43. > :24:48.now, in a few years' time, this could be a fight for survival.
:24:48. > :24:54.The younger stags that we saw over there who are having a bit of a
:24:55. > :25:03.play fight together, is there and age where they are mature enough?
:25:03. > :25:07.The ones with the small, pointy antlers are not old enough. They
:25:07. > :25:17.are nice animals but they are not mature. They think they are, they

:25:28. > :25:31.It is true, they are show-offs at this time of year.
:25:31. > :25:37.We have not seen any action today but we have certainly heard them.
:25:37. > :25:42.Being so close to them has been quite amazing and you too can enjoy
:25:42. > :25:52.this wildlife spectacle right on your doorstep.

:25:57. > :26:01.The poor old things surrounding And now for a look at the weather.
:26:01. > :26:05.We have needed the rain that has been with us since the early hours
:26:05. > :26:10.of this morning and it seems like a distant past when we saw skies like
:26:10. > :26:14.this, they were captured at Belton House by Graham, thank you for that
:26:14. > :26:19.picture. We will see those brighter skies returning but you might have
:26:19. > :26:22.to wait until the weekend. We have the band of rain with us and it is
:26:22. > :26:27.travelling north and east through this evening. Still producing some
:26:27. > :26:30.heavy bursts of rain and then the skies start to Clear and the
:26:30. > :26:37.temperatures will then start to drop certainly across the north of
:26:37. > :26:40.the region. A slight frost in rural areas but we also have to contend
:26:40. > :26:46.with fog if you are travelling first thing tomorrow and it could
:26:46. > :26:49.be quite dense and it will linger. The winds will remain quite light
:26:49. > :26:54.through the daytime. The odd fog patch that remains with us into the
:26:54. > :26:58.afternoon but for most of us, it will be a brighter story by the end
:26:58. > :27:01.of the afternoon. Daytime temperatures at around 14 Celsius.
:27:01. > :27:08.A weather front across the south- east corner, that will work its way
:27:08. > :27:12.up again. We are sandwiched in between a band of rain across the
:27:12. > :27:16.north-west to the bit in the middle getting the brighter story on
:27:16. > :27:20.Saturday and on Sunday, we have got low-pressure not very far away and
:27:20. > :27:24.that will control the winds more on Sunday. It will increase but it is
:27:24. > :27:27.coming from the south-west so a milder direction and that will help
