her mother Rosie has been campaigning to improve conditions | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
for backpackers in Australia, She believes a lack of regulation | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
on the system contributed to her daughter's death, | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
placing her in a hostel They've got a duty of care, | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
they need to be communicating with them, they need to be on-site | :02:21. | :02:33. | |
at all times communicating Yesterday her campaign | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
received a helping hand. A letter from the Australian Prime | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
Minister Malcolm Turnbull which includes a pledge | :02:40. | :02:47. | |
of $20 million to help crack down on employers who exploit | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
workers in Mia's position. I'm pleased, I'm really delighted | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
to have that recognition and to have that response from Malcolm Turnbull | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
himself, that meant a lot to me, but it's where we go | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
from here, isn't it? What I want to see him do | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
is implement tighter regulation of the industry in order to protect | :03:06. | :03:07. | |
young backpackers who are working What would Mia have said | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
about what you're doing? To be honest, people keep telling me | :03:12. | :03:22. | |
how proud Mia would be of me. I don't know where Mia is now | :03:23. | :03:33. | |
and I don't want to decide for Mia What she'd probably have | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
said would have been, "Mum, your shoes don't go | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
with your tights" and "you might have cleaned the carpet | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
before the BBC arrived!" You know that she would be a little | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
bit proud of you, deep down. I know how Mia felt about me, | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
I know she loved me. A prison officer has been arrested, | :03:52. | :04:07. | |
and several others have been suspended, after a police | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
investigation at Nottingham jail. There have been reports | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
that they're accused of goading Muslim inmates, | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
until they needed to be Our Social Affairs Correspondent, | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Jeremy Ball, is there. The police have confirmed that | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
a 28-year-old member of staff He's been questioned on suspicion | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
of "conspiracy to cause He's been released | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
on bail while the police We also know that he's one eight | :04:33. | :04:41. | |
officers who've now been The Sun newspaper's reported | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
that it was prompted by a game Where they used vile racist | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
language, and where they scored the most points by provoking Muslim | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
inmates, then restraining The Prison Service told me it can't | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
give any details, while there's And there've been ongoing | :04:58. | :05:05. | |
concerns about violence Although they've been about violence | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
committed by inmates. The last monitoring report | :05:09. | :05:17. | |
talked about one fellow and it said prisoners | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
carried out almost 500 More than 200 of those were attacks | :05:23. | :05:31. | |
on members of staff here. It's all been blamed | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
on a cocktail of pressures. Overcrowding, staff cuts, | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
and powerful new drugs. And after last week's big | :05:41. | :05:42. | |
prison riot in Birmingham, those same concerns are now | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
being raised nationally. A rapist has been jailed for 18 | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
years after attacking a woman Richard Houston had denied | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
assault by beating, and three counts of rape, | :05:54. | :06:01. | |
but was found guilty and ordered to sign the sexual offenders | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
register indefinitely. The 24-year-old attacked the woman | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
in March this year in what officers have described as a prolonged | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
assault, during which he also hit An ex-judge and her husband have | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
been jailed after forging a will to get their hands | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
on a cottage in Nottinghamshire. Margaret Hampshire, a former | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
solicitor, along with her husband Alan have been sentenced to six | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
months in prison. They were found guilty of doctoring | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
the will of a man who died in 2007 to claim ownership | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
of his cottage in Rolleston. While sentencing the pair the judge | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
said they had "abused" the positions Police in Leicestershire are trying | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
to find a man who allegedly stole a defibrillator from a paramedic | :06:38. | :06:46. | |
while he was treating a patient. They've released images of a man | :06:47. | :06:48. | |
they'd like to speak to about the incident | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
on Regent Street in Hinckley in the early hours of Sunday | :06:55. | :06:56. | |
the 4th of December. The paramedic was abused | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
and spat on by a crowd. The device was later recovered | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
but had been badly damaged. You're watching East Midlands Today | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
where sport is on its way with one And they are busy preparing a meal | :07:08. | :07:18. | |
for homeless people in Leicester and it will get a present as well. | :07:19. | :07:26. | |
We told you yesterday how Nottingham City Council was, | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
at one time, paying the lowest hourly rate in the East Midlands | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
Now a social care company has told us they've pulled out of working | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
in Leicestershire because the hourly rate being paid by the county | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
It highlights how local authorities run the risk of losing providers | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
Paul Bridge visits one of his regulars. | :07:49. | :07:56. | |
56-year-old Joseph has Parkinson's disease and needs help with food | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
That was the morning one, this is the lunch one, | :07:59. | :08:08. | |
this is the tea-time one and this is the night one. | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
Joseph is just one of 18 people Paul Bridge visits on his bike | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
He's a home care worker for Radis in Tamworth in Staffordshire. | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
The company pulled out of Leicestershire in 2015, | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
saying the hourly rate wasn't high enough. | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
We've dealt with them for a long time, but we recently handed back | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
the contracts because we can't deliver on the fees | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
they are offering us, meaning we cannot offer the quality | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
Next for Paul Bridge is Sid, who has a heart condition. | :08:38. | :08:47. | |
I need help to get the right medication for my complaint. | :08:48. | :08:49. | |
I recently had a guy cut from an hour to 45. | :08:50. | :09:00. | |
His daughter wanted to get it stopped at an hour, | :09:01. | :09:02. | |
Radis says it was being paid ?14.75 an hour in Leicestershire | :09:03. | :09:10. | |
In Staffordshire, the county council rate is ?15.75 per hour for urban | :09:11. | :09:21. | |
Borderline sustainable, according to the company. | :09:22. | :09:29. | |
They say they need around ?16.70 an hour, recommended | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
by the Home Care Association and will not return | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
to Leicestershire until the price is right. | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
We're not bidding for unsustainable contracts. | :09:40. | :09:40. | |
We have to say, enough's enough, and hopefully, eventually, | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
if everyone does that together, it sends a message to the local | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
authorities that they have to take a look at their pricing. | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
Back in Tamworth, Paul Bridge goes on to visit Alan, who's | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
Some lunch and a bit of help finding the racing results. | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
Leicestershire County Council didn't want to be interviewed. | :10:00. | :10:10. | |
It said the bid submitted by the company couldn't be evaluated | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
because it failed to meet the council's requirements. | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
They say the average hourly rate for help to live | :10:19. | :10:20. | |
The UK Home Care Association is warning of of an apparent | :10:21. | :10:33. | |
increase in home care providers handing back contract | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
on the basis of inadequate fee levels. | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
Well, social care and its funding is a huge topic and one | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
that's shot to the top of the political agenda recently. | :10:47. | :10:48. | |
Mike, we've heard that the UK Home Care Assoication wants a ?16.70 | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
Well, the association says that figure's needed to keep care | :10:54. | :11:01. | |
It's to cover care worker costs of just under ?12, | :11:02. | :11:09. | |
including the national minimum wage, travel time, supervision | :11:10. | :11:11. | |
Then there's the running of the business, round about a fiver, | :11:12. | :11:18. | |
leaving a profit, they say of 50p an hour. | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
The association says low rates paid by some councils cause instability | :11:22. | :11:29. | |
and unacceptably low pay and conditions. | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
And some companies are now deciding to walk away or not take | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
on cases if the price isn't right for them. | :11:38. | :11:46. | |
How much of an impact will be made by the Government's recent | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
Well, the Government says that councils can bring forward council | :11:50. | :11:56. | |
tax increases to pay for social care, with some saying it's just | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
But the Government says more money isn't the only answer. | :12:01. | :12:11. | |
Some councils, they say, need to work harder to reduce delays | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
in discharging people from hospital beds. | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
But last year, East Midlands councils said the region is unable | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
to tackle big health issues as funding allocations are, | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
Whatever they say, ?20 billion will be spent on social care | :12:24. | :12:29. | |
A new, 24-hour Urgent Care Centre has opened at Newark hospital today, | :12:30. | :12:42. | |
after a long-running campaign for improvements. | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
?700,000 has been spent on the changes, but bosses say calls | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
for a return to Accident and Emergency Care won't happen. | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
Officially reopened after a major investment. | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
For the past few years, this hospital has been known | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
as a minor injuries unit and urgent care centre. | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
Bosses say the rebranding is subtle, but important. | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
The main difference now is we are bringing together primary | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
care services out of hours together with services that used to be | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
That's great for patients because they can come to one place | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
and we can direct them to the most appropriate place to get care | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
There were protests at this site five years ago | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
following a controversial decision to close the old A unit. | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
Some campaigners have described today's rebranding as nothing more | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
than a PR tool and it's an issue that continues to | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
It doesn't matter what it's called, it's what they do that matters. | :13:41. | :13:50. | |
I'd like to see it as an A capable of treating more | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
than minor injuries, but I guess financially | :13:54. | :13:54. | |
We've never had any issues for myself or my son | :13:55. | :14:03. | |
so whether it is an A or urgent care, it's the same service. | :14:04. | :14:11. | |
Previously the local MP has raised concerns | :14:12. | :14:13. | |
about the care provided here, but now he says he is confident | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
I think we can see things are looking up. | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
We've got this major investment, it's a very good quality facility | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
and all of the statistics are improving for us. | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
More patients are coming through the door, fewer people | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
are having to be taken onwards to Kingsmill in an ambulance. | :14:27. | :14:34. | |
The service in will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
Police have arrested six people near Newark on suspicion | :14:38. | :14:39. | |
Officers were called to the New Link Business Park | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
Two men are also being sought after they fled the scene. | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
Anyone with any information should contact the police. | :14:52. | :14:52. | |
Judges at the High Court have agreed that a consultation over the future | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
of the local Government of Chesterfield was | :14:56. | :14:57. | |
Derbyshire County Council had argued that people in the town weren't | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
properly asked if they'd like to form part of | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
The Yorkshire city is holding its mayoral elections in May next year, | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
Network Rail has started reconstruction work | :15:11. | :15:18. | |
on a 116-year-old bridge in Ilkeston. | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
The upgrade is part of a bigger project to provide better | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
infrastructure along the region's railway lines. | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
As well as making the bridge stronger it's hoped it | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
will also help visibility for drivers crossing. | :15:31. | :15:32. | |
The roads been closed until the end of March 2017 | :15:33. | :15:34. | |
while the new bridge deck is installed. | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
Homeless people in Leicester are getting a hot meal tonight, | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
which will be much needed in the cold weather, | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
but that's not all - they're also getting Christmas | :15:46. | :15:47. | |
presents and another scheme is offering clothing. | :15:48. | :15:49. | |
Simon Ward is at the City Retreat in Leicester. | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
Simon, how has this all come together? | :15:55. | :16:02. | |
It is all totally through donations from the public, giving financial | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
donations to provide the food and the food itself has been made by the | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
one love charity and Muhammad is the founder here in Leicester. We're | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
having a massive winter party here to get everyone in the festive mood. | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
We are serving a whole host of food to the homeless and we've been | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
joined by asylum seekers and refugees from Syria. We want to give | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
a little back to the community for everything they have done for them | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
so we got food, presents ready to give out, we are hoping to see some | :16:34. | :16:40. | |
happy faces. How many people are homeless, about 50? In Leicester, | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
there's an estimated figure of 50 people sleeping on the streets but | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
there's also people in hostels, in flats on there or not doing too | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
well, so we're trying to treat everybody the same, vulnerable | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
people and elderly people as well who are lonely at this time of year. | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
Also with us is Ali, an asylum seeker from Iran. You're not | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
homeless but you're volunteering to serve the food. Why have you done | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
that? When I arrived here, I didn't have any family or friends, but | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
these people helped me to start to communicate with society and in my | :17:19. | :17:28. | |
new home and now I try to do the same to other people and I try to | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
learn this behaviour, to be kind to people who need to be kind. Thanks | :17:34. | :17:41. | |
for talking to us. Mike, you're from the pass it on campaign, you're | :17:42. | :17:49. | |
providing clothing. We distribute magazines and newspapers into | :17:50. | :17:57. | |
communities. We have two bands. -- brands. We brought them both | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
together under the pass it on campaign and her colleagues have | :18:02. | :18:03. | |
been done eating items over the last four weeks. We got 5000 items and | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
were now travelling the country distributing some of these items to | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
people that need it most. After the meal is finished, we've got | :18:14. | :18:20. | |
pre-loved warm winter where Ike coats, jackets, sleeping bags and | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
will be giving them out to people who need it -- like. I've been | :18:24. | :18:31. | |
speaking to the volunteers and they say it is great that so many people | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
are enjoying a meal and they wish they were fewer people they had to | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
support -- there were fewer. Later in the programme: Love Story | :18:38. | :18:41. | |

to secure their place in the third round of the competition | :20:01. | :20:09. | |
and a lucrative tie at Premier League leaders Chelsea, | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
but Notts conceded two goals The first, a Gwion Edwards header | :20:12. | :20:13. | |
inside two minutes and then a Paul Taylor strike only | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
six minutes later. It's a sixth defeat in seven | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
games for Notts County. Now, she is the fastest woman | :20:20. | :20:30. | |
on ice, winning more titles this Nottingham-based short track speed | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
skater Elise Christie returned home today after a stunning | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
World Cup season. She's broken a world record | :20:38. | :20:39. | |
and won five gold medals David Jackson was there | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
at her special homecoming. After so much success on the ice, a | :20:43. | :21:00. | |
warm welcome back home in Nottingham. It's been mad. I feel | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
like the season started terrible and then it's gone the opposite way and | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
everything is going really well. I did say it was all are nothing going | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
into the season and that's how it has gone, it's going really good. | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
Elise has had a phenomenal world Cup season so far. In November she got | :21:17. | :21:23. | |
her first gold medal in Calgary and well she didn't meddle in Salt Lake | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
City later that month, she broke the 500 metre world record. She followed | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
that up with two goals in Shanghai and two more in John -- South Korea. | :21:33. | :21:43. | |
Her confidence matches how amazing a skater she is. -- doesn't match. But | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
hopefully she will realise it now. Physically I've been in a place | :21:50. | :21:52. | |
where I could do this for years and haven't because tactically and | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
weaker than my opponents and I think they know that to everyone who has | :21:56. | :22:01. | |
supported me has helped me since Sochi. I have shot myself! I've | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
actually managed to pull it off for a change! What happened in Sochi was | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
the disqualifications and no medals. The aim is to put that right at the | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
next Winter Olympics. Every day, everything is geared towards that. I | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
was willing to throw away the World Cup tomorrow's championship so the | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
best place I can be -- I'm in the best place I can be for the Olympics | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
and every day is about that. Everything I want to be world | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
champion but if I'm sacrificing that for career, that's not a big issue. | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
Elise will be turning banking until the next World Cup event in Dresden | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
in February. From there, it's only 12 months until the Olympics in | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
South Korea. It seems she could be peaking at a good time. | :22:47. | :22:55. | |
What a girl. Super-talented and quick. | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
Finally, let's face it a marriage proposal, however it's done, | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
is a pretty special moment but one man from the East Midlands has | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
genuinely gone the extra mile to make his unforgettable. | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
True romantic Dougie Hird from Hinckley spent weeks filming | :23:11. | :23:12. | |
a Hollywood-style trailer and secretly arranged for it to play | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
at the local cinema, where his unsuspecting girlfriend | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
Claire O'Grady was about to watch a film. | :23:21. | :23:22. | |
It might look like a trailer for Hollywood's latest blockbuster, | :23:23. | :23:36. | |
but this is in fact part of an elaborate marriage proposal | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
Filmed across Leicestershire, screened in a packed cinema, | :23:40. | :23:50. | |
where his unsuspecting girlfriend Claire was about to watch | :23:51. | :23:52. | |
As soon as I saw it, I was like, what? | :23:53. | :24:01. | |
I think I said to my mate, what is he doing? | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
The video, which has had hundreds of views online, | :24:06. | :24:12. | |
shows Dougie running towards the cinema in Hinckley, | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
where he then appears in real life and pops the question. | :24:17. | :24:18. | |
So how long did it take you to plan and make that trailer? | :24:19. | :24:25. | |
From start to finish it was about two months. | :24:26. | :24:28. | |
When I was planning it, I couldn't see a normal engagement, | :24:29. | :24:30. | |
I never imagined it would be this big and I still sit | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
there watching it now thinking, that was for me. | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
I think it will take a few more days to sink in. | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
Claire and Dougie are now starting to plan their wedding | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
and while the date has yet to be fixed, one thing they do now | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
This video, we've shown so many people, I think it's going to be | :24:51. | :24:58. | |
Imagine if she had nipped to the toilet during the trailers! Now | :24:59. | :25:19. | |
let's get the weather. It could be very mild on Christmas | :25:20. | :25:34. | |
Day, a record. We're expecting a mild Christmas Day. Today, thank | :25:35. | :25:41. | |
you, Devon, for this picture. We started off with cloud across | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
Nottinghamshire but we got the sun breaking through and it ended up | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
being a lovely afternoon. We are looking at sky is continuing to | :25:54. | :25:56. | |
clear which will make for a chilly night with a touch of frost. | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
Clearing skies from the north and the winds will be gentle overnight | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
which allows temperature to drop to around one or two Celsius so it will | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
be quite chilly, a touch of frost and also further south in a little | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
bit of patchy fog is likely to form, all parts staying dry slope means | :26:15. | :26:17. | |
tomorrow morning will be a lovely start of the day but it will be | :26:18. | :26:20. | |
quite chilly, best of the sunshine through the morning. You will see | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
cloud amounts increasing into the afternoon but well broken. Most will | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
stay dry across northern parts, the risk of the odd, isolated shower. It | :26:29. | :26:32. | |
will feel cool tomorrow with highs of seven Celsius. A lot going on on | :26:33. | :26:39. | |
the pressure chart. Storm Barbara will stay further north on Friday. A | :26:40. | :26:49. | |
brief respite on Christmas Eve when it is mainly dry but Christmas Day, | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
another storm will work its way in. It hasn't been named and it will be | :26:54. | :26:56. | |
across northern parts but for us, it means the winds will be strong once | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
again and exceptionally mild so temperatures as we head towards the | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
end of the week, around 10 Celsius and by Christmas Day, highs of 13 | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
Celsius. It could be a record brighter. | :27:09. | :27:14. |
