:00:00. > :00:00.the BBC news at This is East Midlands Today with
:00:07. > :00:36.Anne davies and me, Dominic Heale: Tonight ` the pressure's on in A
:00:37. > :00:52.Delight of the Derby. What does McLaren think of his chief
:00:53. > :00:55.executive's first year in charge. Welcome to the programme. First
:00:56. > :01:01.tonight, more evidence of the huge pressures being faced by our
:01:02. > :01:04.accident and emergency units. Tonight we can reveal some patients
:01:05. > :01:09.are facing lengthy delays as they're handed over from ambulance crews to
:01:10. > :01:12.hospital staff. Figures we've obtained reveal instances of
:01:13. > :01:19.patients waiting up to four hours to be booked in. Our Health
:01:20. > :01:22.Correspondent Rob Sissons reports. The latest snapshot of the pressure
:01:23. > :01:27.our A unit comes under handover time. It should take no more than 15
:01:28. > :01:32.minutes to handover a patient from ambulance crews to hospital staff.
:01:33. > :01:35.The 12 weeks of data obtained by BBC news shows in the east midlands the
:01:36. > :01:42.average wasn't far off at over 18 minutes but that masks some very
:01:43. > :01:45.lengthy delays. Here's the worst at each hospital from August to
:01:46. > :01:49.November At Kings Mill a four hours wait is being disputed. At
:01:50. > :01:53.Nottingham's Queens medical centre one patient wasited two hours 44
:01:54. > :01:56.minutes for handover to be competed, and over at the Leicester Royal
:01:57. > :02:07.Infirmary a patient handover took one hour 54 mintues. There, they
:02:08. > :02:11.accept they've been under strain. At the moment, because of pressures in
:02:12. > :02:16.the organisation, we are having more patience and we would have liked
:02:17. > :02:20.waiting to be transferred. It is completely unacceptable. The role of
:02:21. > :02:24.Burnley side have too few sides. You're taking action to try and
:02:25. > :02:27.mitigate against that. It'll be a very challenging and Amanda in
:02:28. > :02:32.winter, occasionally patience will wait too long. And balloons trolleys
:02:33. > :02:39.have been fitted with electronic tags. That'll help Clark when the
:02:40. > :02:47.patient arrives in hospital and when the trolley leaves. Here there be
:02:48. > :02:54.patients faster. At peak times it proves hard. The reasons why patient
:02:55. > :02:59.wait too long. The volume of ambulances arrived together,
:03:00. > :03:03.sometimes seven or eight Amblin 's arrive in a few minutes, we can't
:03:04. > :03:08.deal with that. The Air Ambulance Service tall as they are working
:03:09. > :03:13.closely with the hospitals. There is a new BBC website, way can track how
:03:14. > :03:17.your hospital bills this winter, by simply typing in your postcode.
:03:18. > :03:25.There are special pages on Facebook and Twitter where you can have your
:03:26. > :03:29.say. Simply go to the BBC website. Next, High Speed Rail may be years
:03:30. > :03:36.away, but from today our region has faster links with London. For the
:03:37. > :03:39.first time trains are able to travel at a 125 miles an hour cutting
:03:40. > :03:45.journey times from our cities. Not all passengers are impressed though
:03:46. > :03:49.as Mike O'Sullivan reports. The 901 from Derby to London got a
:03:50. > :03:54.special welcome today from the Secretary of State for Transport. It
:03:55. > :03:58.is the first of the faster trains from the city, now able to travel at
:03:59. > :04:04.125 miles an hour, knocking off minutes off the average journey time
:04:05. > :04:11.to the capital. How impressed are passengers? Four minutes is not a
:04:12. > :04:24.lot. Every little bit of speed is good I suppose. An improvement of
:04:25. > :04:29.four minutes is good. Grim. It will probably make quite a big difference
:04:30. > :04:31.to a lot of people. It is a result of a ?70 million investment by
:04:32. > :04:34.network rail. Improvements include realigning the rails and taking out
:04:35. > :04:41.a level crossings, meaning trains can reach the top speed on around 60
:04:42. > :04:46.miles of track. Here in Derby, they have cut four minutes off the
:04:47. > :04:50.average journey time to London. The bus trip will be one hour 20
:04:51. > :04:53.minutes. In Nottingham, they have knocked five minutes off that time.
:04:54. > :04:57.The faster trip will be one hour 31 minutes. In Leicester, just a minute
:04:58. > :05:01.has been shaved off. The fastest time is one hour and five minutes.
:05:02. > :05:04.With even quicker time to come through over the next five years,
:05:05. > :05:12.does it make high`speed rail redundant? One of the reasons is
:05:13. > :05:16.capacity, one of the reasons is the way we are seeing numbers grow. We
:05:17. > :05:17.are 0 way we are seeing numbers grow. We
:05:18. > :05:25.are also seeing more and more railways, people want to see more
:05:26. > :05:34.freight. Time to put your foot down on a liner which previously limited
:05:35. > :05:38.the driver to 110 miles an hour. Later in the programme. Who'll come

:06:45. > :06:48.In Parliament Square the floral tributes grow around Nelson
:06:49. > :06:51.Mandela's statue. Across the way verbal tributes flowed including
:06:52. > :07:03.this from a former Foreign Secretary who met him several times. We all
:07:04. > :07:09.honour him as a hero. Unlike some others who also honoured in that
:07:10. > :07:17.vein, the sickly during my student years, he became also a hero of
:07:18. > :07:21.peace. That is why we remember him. On Saturday a Walk of Freedom will
:07:22. > :07:23.make its way from Nelson Mandela Park to Leicester Cathedral where,
:07:24. > :07:34.as elsewhere, books of condolence have been opened. It was part of the

:08:49. > :08:52.Sarah Teale reports. This was the fire at its height on
:08:53. > :09:01.Saturday afternoon. Flames engulfed the Bridge pub, a local landmark at
:09:02. > :09:04.Gamston in Nottingham. Within minutes the blaze had spread
:09:05. > :09:11.throughout the entire two storey pub gutting the whole building. Eight
:09:12. > :09:15.fire engines were called in to keep it under control. The road had to be
:09:16. > :09:21.closed because of the billowing smoke. We were on the scene for 18
:09:22. > :09:25.hours. We had one high`rise appliance and support vehicles.
:09:26. > :09:29.There was quite a lot of flames coming from the roof. There was
:09:30. > :09:37.smoke as well. Fortunately around 30 staff and customers were all
:09:38. > :09:40.evacuated safely. This was The landlord, his wife and their family
:09:41. > :09:44.managed to escape. Also a family home. But the fire has destroyed
:09:45. > :09:51.what was their home just before Christmas. Everybody got out,
:09:52. > :09:55.everything is fine. In terms of Eddie and Amy, they will be looked
:09:56. > :10:00.after. They would like to find everyone he was acquired about
:10:01. > :10:06.them. The brewery is now keen to quash rumours that the pub land will
:10:07. > :10:10.be sold off for development. We're not going to be able to salvage the
:10:11. > :10:16.building itself, so it will be demolished and replaced.
:10:17. > :10:26.Investigations continue on what caused the fire which is believed to

:10:30. > :10:33.Romanians will gain the same rights as other European citizens to work
:10:34. > :10:36.in the UK. Diplomats from Bulgaria and Romania have repeatedly stressed
:10:37. > :10:40.that they are not expecting a "wave" of migration. But others have warned
:10:41. > :10:44.that tens of thousands could come here every year. We'll have more in
:10:45. > :10:48.a minute from our social affairs correspondent Jeremy Ball, but first
:10:49. > :10:49.Simon Ward has been talking to a group of Romanians who are working

:10:58. > :11:01.and studying at Derby University. How many of his fellow countrymen
:11:02. > :11:04.will come here next year? That's a more difficult calculation. Dr.
:11:05. > :11:06.Ovidiu Bagdasar, from Romania teaches mathematics at the
:11:07. > :11:10.University of Derby. Some Romanians and Bulgarians already have the
:11:11. > :11:14.right to work here and there's quite a list of jobs that people can do,
:11:15. > :11:17.but all jobs will be open in the New Year. We're discussing the issues
:11:18. > :11:24.with other Romanians at the university. What do you say to
:11:25. > :11:30.people who feel they might be a lot of good look on the jobs? I think
:11:31. > :11:30.that nobody should panic will stop this is my 0
:11:31. > :11:37.that nobody should panic will stop this is my first message. It takes a
:11:38. > :11:41.lot of skill and a lot of confidence for that I'm sure only the people
:11:42. > :11:44.with the right skill sets who can bring a contribution here will come.
:11:45. > :11:47.The wages 0 bring a contribution here will come.
:11:48. > :11:52.The wages are much higher here than in Romania. It is that attractive?
:11:53. > :11:59.Cost of food is much higher in Romania. I don't think there will be
:12:00. > :12:03.a real profit. Surely if there has been an English person and the
:12:04. > :12:07.remaining person going for the same job, the remaining person got it
:12:08. > :12:12.because they have more skills. It is not because it had been preferred.
:12:13. > :12:19.Are you planning on to stay in the East Midlands? I would like to stay
:12:20. > :12:22.near the couple more years to develop my skills even more, because
:12:23. > :12:27.I think it is very different, the you learn here to the way you can
:12:28. > :12:34.learn and enhance your skills and Romania. In ten years, I see myself
:12:35. > :12:38.at home. Dr. Bagdasar is settled here with
:12:39. > :12:42.his family for the moment at least. Next year the UK will be keeping a
:12:43. > :12:45.close eye on the numbers of Romanians and Bulgarians who follow
:12:46. > :12:49.him. Simon Ward. So why are these changes so
:12:50. > :12:52.controversial? And what could it mean for the rest of us? Our Social
:12:53. > :12:56.Affairs Correspondent, Jeremy Ball, has been looking at the arguments.
:12:57. > :13:01.There are some real concerns here, aren't there? Yes. Critics are very
:13:02. > :13:05.worried about pressure on services. Things like health, housing, and
:13:06. > :13:09.schools. If you're looking for a job, this means you're likely to
:13:10. > :13:12.face more competition. And there's real concern about new arrivals
:13:13. > :13:17.claiming benefits as well. There are urban myths around that. You can't
:13:18. > :13:20.simply come here to claim the dole. But new arrivals are likely to be in
:13:21. > :13:23.low paid jobs, which eventually entitles them to things like housing
:13:24. > :13:34.benefit. So it's still very contentious. Is there an upside for
:13:35. > :13:37.us? Well supporters think that, overall, these changes benefit
:13:38. > :13:43.Britain's economy. That's because migrant workers have to pay taxes.
:13:44. > :13:51.While increasing numbers of British people are retired, and drawing
:13:52. > :13:56.pensions. There are a lot of these migrants who will be working in
:13:57. > :14:02.places like hospitals. They also have crucial role to play. There is
:14:03. > :14:08.one argument is that about that, we could all be paying more for our
:14:09. > :14:11.shopping. So do we know how many Romanians and Bulgarians are likely
:14:12. > :14:14.to come to Britain? We don't. But we've heard some widely varying
:14:15. > :14:16.predications. At the top end, Migrationwatch thinks we'll see
:14:17. > :14:20.50,000 people a year, coming from Romania and Bulgaria. They've warned
:14:21. > :14:21.that numbers were much higher than expected, last time the rules were
:14:22. > :14:24.relaxed. But 0 expected, last time the rules were
:14:25. > :14:38.relaxed. But the government says that's because Britain was the only
:14:39. > :14:41.major country to let come and work. So ministers think the numbers will
:14:42. > :14:46.be much, much lower. And we'll find out in the New Year.
