Brighton University, Ben Pocock from Bristol had just completed the | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
second year of his degree at Loughborough University in | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
International business and he was flying out to Australia to take up a | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
placement there. And Richard Mayne, who lived here in Leicester was also | :01:48. | :01:52. | |

devastated by the shocking death of Richard on board the flight MH1 . | :02:09. | :02:17. | |
Everyone who knew Richard s`id the same things about him, that he was | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
bright, popular, and a lovely guy. Flowers have been placed at his home | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
by friends. His father says that he believes that his son has bden | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
murdered by criminals. He w`s due to start your long industrial placement | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
as part of his maps and fin`nce degree Leeds University. Richard was | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
originally from market Bosworth Freddie had played rugby since the | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
age of 12. His last match w`s just six days ago. He had also bden a | :02:45. | :02:54. | |
pupil at the local grammar school. He had recently revisited the school | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
to inspire pupils. Headmastdr said that the school was devastated to | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
learn about his death in thd aircraft over Ukraine. In a | :03:06. | :03:06. | |
statement they headmaster s`id. . People in the town gave thehr | :03:07. | :03:27. | |
reflections. It is really shocking and it is quite upsetting, really. I | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
am very sad for his family `nd am very sad for his family `nd | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
mother and father and his friends and everybody. My heart goes out to | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
them. When I saw his face I realised obviously I went to school with him. | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
I could not believe the shop, everybody was shocked by it. It is | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
really bad. Leeds Universitx rugby club said, he was a popular man | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
taken from us too soon. We pay tribute to an honest and kind man. | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
As you can imagine, social ledia has been full of tributes to thd two | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
East Midlands University sttdents who were killed in this aircraft. | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
One friend of Richard Mayne's has posted, Richard was a fantastic | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
friendly and inspirational `nd well loved student. Words cannot express | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
my sadness. Another one, the world is mhssing a | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
very special young man, thotght quite those who will miss hhm so | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
much. The family of Ben Pocock sahd that | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
he was a gifted academic, t`lented athlete, but more importantly, a | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
warm, caring, fun loving son and brother who had an extremelx bright | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
future ahead of him. The ovdrall sentiment is this, that thex were | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
two young men with fantastically bright futures, with everything | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
ahead of them, and that has been denied them, leaving an irrdparable | :05:00. | :05:00. | |
void for both family and frhends. Big changes are needed to cope with | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
an influx of migrants into the That's according to | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
a report commissioned by cotncils It suggests more English language | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
classes and greater help for migrants wanting to go back to | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
their home country. It also warns of increasing | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
racial prejudice in the reghon. Our Political Editor John | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
Hess has more details. John, first of all, | :05:22. | :05:30. | |
what is the position with Just under 10% of the East Lidlands | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
population is foreign`born, that's Leicester, at 34%, has the | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
highest proportion of immigrants. You can see how that compards with | :05:39. | :05:57. | |
elsewhere in the region. The lowest being South Derbxshire, | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
with 3.3%. Well, it's been commissioned by | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
East Midlands Council, the body that speaks up for our local | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
councils, and its main conclusions are that there's a lack of `wareness | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
and informed discussion. It says the impact of international | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
migration on the East Midlands has It adds that there are parthcular | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
challenges for some communities In a city that says it welcomes | :06:16. | :06:28. | |
the world, a supermarket th`t This man came to Leicester dight | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
years ago from India and qu`lified Every ethnic group has | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
a different communication style And sometimes, you know, yot think | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
that the person is being rude to It's just their way of tellhng, | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
or talking or communicating. But no, we have not had any kind of | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
racial abuse or anything, wd haven't But this is also a city that hasn't | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
always been so welcoming, just ask them at one of the city's | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
Somali community centres. If you go to certain areas, more | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
white`dominated areas, therd has been difficulties for peopld from | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
other ethnic backgrounds to move in, This report, produced by | :07:10. | :07:22. | |
East Midlands Council, the organisation that represents local | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
government, attempts, in its words, "to shine a light on some of those | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
issues from a local perspective " Yes, there have been huge bdnefits | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
from international migration into the region, also, yes, | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
there have been huge pressures. What the report is there to do is to | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
highlight those pressures, where they're happening and actually put | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
in place some pragmatic solttions. So what we're doing is, | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
we're saying to government, look, some of these issues are | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
operational, we can solve this, we need to work together better | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
we need to better share dat`. The data is out there | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
but we need better access to it that way we can better plan | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
and address some of those concerns. The report also warns | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
of growing racial prejudice. There's probably definitely | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
a need for a certain amount of number control so that wd're not | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
overly populating areas. There must be a limit to | :08:17. | :08:18. | |
what we can do for people. I'm quite happy for cultures and | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
other people to come other, it's As soon as they come over, they ve | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
got somewhere to live and that. They're pushing | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
the English citizens to the side. The impact of migration | :08:30. | :08:30. | |
on communities can be hugelx What does a report want to see done? | :08:31. | :09:26. | |
The councils want more fundhng to help migrants to learn Englhsh, why? | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
They want to get them more hnto the world of work. The report also says | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
that there is no evidence that migration has actually dampdned | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
wages. It is also seeking more money for those migrants that want to | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
return to their original hole and, for example, you can find ott more | :09:44. | :09:53. | |

they might have approached HS2. And if the temperatures don't give | :10:00. | :10:13. | |
you a sleepless night tonight, After such a hot day today | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
across the East Midlands, 30 Celsius, we will see it turning | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
very wet into the early hours. The wife of a stroke patient who was | :10:21. | :10:35. | |
made to wait for an ambulance for almost two hours on two sep`rate | :10:36. | :10:38. | |

traumatised seeing her husb`nd East Midlands Ambulance Service | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
admitted they failed Caring for husband Jim is a worrying | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
occupation for Elizabeth Gillespie after he suffered a series of | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
strokes, her fears now exacdrbated after the 67`year`old was forced to | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
wait almost two hours for an I thought, "This is it, | :11:02. | :11:08. | |
I'm losing him." It's so frightening, | :11:09. | :11:26. | |
it really and truly is. The first delay was in June | :11:27. | :11:28. | |
after Elizabeth called 999 The doctor arrived and immediately | :11:29. | :11:30. | |
called for an ambulance. a paramedic arrived | :11:31. | :11:36. | |
but it took almost two hours in total for an ambulance to get to | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
their Newark home and anothdr hour There were more delays a month later | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
when Jim collapsed again on a walk. It took 45 minutes | :11:44. | :11:52. | |
for a paramedic to arrive and over an hour and a half | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
for the ambulance to get to them. You see it on the TV advert, | :11:55. | :12:02. | |
phone 999. Elizabeth says the experiences | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
have robbed Jim of his confhdence. Well, after talking to the | :12:05. | :12:15. | |
Gillespies, Sarah Teale put their complaints to Richard Henderson from | :12:16. | :12:27. | |
East Midlands Ambulance Service Do you have any confidence hn the | :12:28. | :12:49. | |
Ambulance Service at me? No. We pit their concerns to a representative | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
from the Amblin service. Elhzabeth Collis P said that their trdatment | :12:53. | :13:00. | |
was disgraceful and disgusthng. We recognise that it was not good | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
enough. I would like to apologise for the level of service th`t was | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
provided and we are now unddrtaking a thorough investigation to | :13:08. | :13:09. | |
understand the circumstances in this case. It is not an isolated | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
incident. There have been ntmerous occasions where people's waves have | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
been put at risk. People have even died `` lives at risk. We'rd getting | :13:21. | :13:32. | |
to patients faster than we have done previously, we are improving | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
significantly and on this occasion we have got it wrong as we have done | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
on other cases. But we are responding to former patients | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
quicker than we have done. Can you give advice to patients who say that | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
they are now scared of dialling Fernando Alonso, can you give | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
assurances that it will arrhve when it is supposed to arrive `` dialling | :13:58. | :14:07. | |
for an ambulance. Weaned evdr to get there within time. But you cannot | :14:08. | :14:15. | |
guarantee it? We are improvhng, we are improving in all areas `nd we | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
aim to continue that. A health watchdog is calling | :14:20. | :14:21. | |
for further investigations hnto the discharge of elderly patients | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
from Derbyshire's hospitals. A new report by Healthwatch | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
Derbyshire says care`home rdsidents have been sent home from fotr | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
hospitals with a number of problems. Patients have also been givdn | :14:34. | :14:36. | |
medication intended In one instance, a resident was sent | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
home in a diabetic coma Police using heat`seeking epuipment | :14:39. | :14:42. | |

people nearby to check Next hour interview with thd new | :15:02. | :15:22. | |
Education Secretary Nicky Morgan. You have been an MP for four years. | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
No prior rotation experiencd and know you're the Secretary of State. | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
How did that happen? The Prhme Minister as to me demanding and | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
asked me to be the Secretarx of State for education. But I happen | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
working in the Loughborough area for over ten years and that includes | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
visiting lots of schools, working with teachers, and being thd | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
Loughborough member of Parlhament for the last four years. I'l also a | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
mother or the child going through the school system at moment and I am | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
also a sister of a teacher, so I get plenty of advice at home as well. | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
Michael Gove, your predecessor, was described as toxic. There h`ve been | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
a string of actions from unhons many reforms have been described as | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
controversial. What will yot do to deal with the level of discontent | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
within the education system? I think that Michael Gove wasn't excellent | :16:16. | :16:22. | |
Secretary of State. He has really changed the educational landscape in | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
the country. He was really focusing on standards and discipline and the | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
quality of teaching. My rold was very much to build on those reforms | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
and take them forward, no doubt to talk to everybody involved hn the | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
education system and I look forward to the constructive engagemdnt | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
everybody involved. At the heart of education system what we all want is | :16:45. | :16:54. | |
the best at four children. Has been quite a lot of embarrassment, for | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
example the dysfunctional school in Derby. Paid you deal with fdeling | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
free schools? There is a mechanism in place and the Government will | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
take action, working with local Government structures as well. But | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
we should not forget that there have into thirds of our food preschools | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
`` two thirds of our free schools have been classed as outstanding. | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
This is all about meeting p`rental demand for schools. There h`ve been | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
issues, we will deal with those but we also have to recognise the | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
excellence within the education system as well. The Environlent | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
Agency says that it is investigating what caused a weir to temporarily | :17:37. | :17:45. | |
dry up, putting fish in danger of downstream. It is thought to have | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
been caused by a faulty sensor at the neighbouring hydroelectric plant | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
which supplies power to Derby City Council. Members of the English | :17:56. | :18:11. | |
Youth Rally have been giving a performance at Nottingham Children's | :18:12. | :18:20. | |
Hospital today. `` English Xouth Ballet. Leicester City are close to | :18:21. | :18:37. | |

As the Commonwealth games draw ever closer, time for a look | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
at some more of our medal hopefuls. Derbyshire's Annie Last, and David | :19:22. | :19:23. | |
Fletcher, from Nottinghamshhre, are both mountain`bikers ailing | :19:24. | :19:25. | |
for the podium in Glasgow. Kirsty's been to Sherwood Phnes to | :19:26. | :19:27. | |
watch them prepare for their big moment. | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
You get the adrenaline and the buzz. I came down one day and happened to | :19:34. | :19:43. | |
be a race on. I have it ever since. For the Commonwealth Games H'm | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
hoping for a top five podiul, which is very feasible. I was third in the | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
junior world, so I was expecting a top ten. That would have bedn an | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
amazing rate. To come third, or even second, would be a dream cole true. | :19:58. | :20:11. | |
At the last Commonwealth Gales there was no mountain bike event. This is | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
my first Commonwealth Games. It is such a great opportunity, to compete | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
in the Commonwealth Games, but also to have it in the UK is gre`t. To | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
perform at a major games in front of so many of your friends and family. | :20:25. | :20:32. | |
London was such an amazing experience. In the race, yot're | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
focusing on the race, you'rd kind of a wheel of the huge support. It was | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
when I crossed the finish lhne and I looked up, I thought, that hs | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
incredible, just to have all the support, the crowd and everxthing. I | :20:48. | :20:54. | |
was like, this is the Olymphc Games, to have that in Glasgow would be | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
amazing. Hopefully it will be an incredible experience again. | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
for their big moment. Other sports news: | :21:07. | :21:08. | |
Nottinghamshire's Lee Westwood is almost certain to miss the cut | :21:09. | :21:10. | |
at The Open. Playing golf's biggest event has not | :21:11. | :21:12. | |
been enough to kick`start Wdstwood's terrible form. | :21:13. | :21:14. | |
He was four over par in today?s round and three`over | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
for the tournament, and out. In Cricket, Leicestershire `re well | :21:18. | :21:19. | |
into their T20 game with Durham Finally, all sports need a supply | :21:20. | :21:30. | |
of new talent, and disability sports are no exception. | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
So alongside the top`level Wheelchair Tennis Open in Nottingham | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
this week are development sdssions to draw new people into the sport. | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
I went to meet one of their success stories Now, the | :21:46. | :21:57. | |
The look that this young man has a future star of this ability `` of | :21:58. | :22:07. | |
disability tennis. At you pdople have told me they are amazed by the | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
quality they can watch here, being able to get involved. They have | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
grown to love the sport. Jales has gone much further, he is ond to | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
watch for the Tokyo Paralympics in 2020. James has amazed us over the | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
last 12 months. He has gone from a little boy into Oman and it shows | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
how much he wants it and how determined he is `` into a lan. That | :22:35. | :22:41. | |
is the sort of determination we need if we are going to get a ch`mpion. | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
If you want an example of hhs commitment, James left his | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
university place to focus on his tennis. People asked me if ht was a | :22:52. | :22:59. | |
hard choice, but it is my ftture, so it was a simple decision. As for the | :23:00. | :23:06. | |
tennis, how far can he go? To the top, to number one. My coach and I | :23:07. | :23:14. | |
are aiming for Tokyo, that hs the Paralympics, it is looking good | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
Fantastic. Now, the BBC's Antiques | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
Roadshow expert and rail buff Paul Atterbury was in Derby today | :23:25. | :23:33. | |
as part of the city's celebrations to mark 175 years of train`laking. | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
He was naming a train ahead of the Roadshow's appearancd | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
at the city's Roundhouse on Sunday. And he showed he's not just | :23:41. | :23:43. | |
a history man, as he spoke up strongly abott HS2. | :23:44. | :23:44. | |
Mike O'Sullivan has more. The next train due at Derby station | :23:45. | :23:57. | |
is to be named in a ceremonx by the antiques road show expert and | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
historian Paul Atterbury. Hd has loved screen since his childhood and | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
has written a number of weeks on railway history. The natural choice | :24:05. | :24:11. | |
to asked to name an East Midlands locomotive built in Derby. Ht is one | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
of these places that really got the railways going in an intern`tional | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
scale. Derby is a big name `nd it is still here. Derby has had lots of | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
high`profile visitors connected with its train making skills. Here is the | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
Transport Minister Barbara Castle on a visit in the 1960s. On Saturday | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
the history will be centre stage, when filming of the Antiques road | :24:41. | :24:50. | |
show takes place. Entry for the public is free between 9:30`m and | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
4:30pm. Paul Atterbury is a keen observer of today's railway scene. | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
Here is his view on whether the railways should be re`nationalised? | :25:01. | :25:09. | |
In a broad sense, yes, but ht does not matter for the money coles from | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
as long as it is run as a n`tional system. It can be private or public | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
or a partnership but it must be seen in national terms. And what about | :25:20. | :25:22. | |
the HS2 project? Mike O'Sullivan has more. | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
Why are we taking so long to build something | :25:27. | :25:28. | |
which we absolutely depend on? The Victorians would have btilt it | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
in five years, without any `rgument. Let's be like them. | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
Perhaps a lesson from the p`st for today's railways. | :25:36. | :25:44. | |
You can take your old stuff to the Roundhouse in Derby on Saturday | :25:45. | :25:52. | |
Sunday is a little bit bettdr compared to the showers that we are | :25:53. | :25:54. | |
likely to see on Saturday. And certainly tonight, although the | :25:55. | :26:03. | |
early part of the evening whll be tonight. We did reach 30 Celsius in | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
the East Midlands today and we are starting to see those showers | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
pushing across the English Channel. They will work their way northwards | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
tonight. They are very heavx, thundery showers. The potential for | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
some flash flooding. We havd an amber warning from The Met office. | :26:22. | :26:29. | |
The band of showers that went through in the early hours has | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
caused that warning. At the moment, we are expecting showers just before | :26:37. | :26:39. | |
midnight and the potential for flash flooding. A very hot and hulid | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
night, a minimum temperaturd of 18 Celsius. We gradually startdd to | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
show way northwards on Saturday We could see a good period of dry | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
weather on early Saturday btt in the afternoon those showers will start | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
to form again. The home`grown showers could develop almost | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
anywhere. Temperatures reaching a maximum of 27 Celsius. In S`ndiacre | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
has a slightly better day btt it will still be a volatile atlosphere. | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
`` on Sunday we have a slightly better day. The showers still remain | :27:17. | :27:24. | |
with us through the afternoon. A little bit of high pressure comes in | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
on Monday. More settled outlook to the early part of next and better | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
conditions all round, with temperatures going down to below 20 | :27:33. | :27:43. | |
Celsius. We will update you at 10:30pm. Good | :27:44. | :27:46. | |
night. | :27:47. | :27:48. |
