Tonight - a motorcyclist's arrested on suspicion of murdering | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
Police are investigating if an incident in this Derbyshire village | :00:13. | :00:25. | |
was huge. It's shocking. I was out here with him. Really shaken up. | :00:26. | :00:34. | |
Battle stations, all our MPs bar one vote for a snap election in June. | :00:35. | :00:41. | |
Plus the roadworks on the M1 which local businesses are saying cause | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
nightmare delays. And the renaissance of the textile | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
industry in the East Midlands. Huge investment means dozens of jobs are | :00:53. | :00:53. | |
being created. Welcome to Wednesday's | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
programme with Anne Davies But first, the battle | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
lines are drawn. MPs today voted overwhelmingly | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
in favour of holding a snap It came as no surprise, | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
and only 13 voted against - including the veteran Labour MP | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
for Bolsover, Dennis Skinner. Parliament now has two weeks to push | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
through whatever legislation it can before campaigning | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
starts in earnest. Our political editor Tony Roe has | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
spent the day in Westminster A bit of news first about two of our | :01:29. | :01:44. | |
long-standing MPs, Kenneth Clarke, the former Chancellor, father of the | :01:45. | :01:52. | |
House of Commons, MP since 1970, will stand in the general election. | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
He said he would stand down in 2020 but he will continue until the next | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
election, and Dame Margaret Beckett, the longest serving woman MP in the | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
history of Parliament, will be standing if she gets the backing of | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
her constituency. I'm joined by Vernon Coaker and Andrew Bridgeton. | :02:13. | :02:22. | |
Vernon, you have been an MP for 20 years, fighting for 30 years. Your | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
seat is vulnerable and always has been. It has always been a seat that | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
people said Labour did well to win it but they will lose it, that has | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
been said for 20 years. I'm a local candidate, I know lots of people | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
locally and fought for local issues and I will be a champion for the | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
area. The Conservatives will be the main challengers as they always are, | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
but they will be someone who stands up for the government so it will be | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
for the people of Gedling to choose whether they want a local champion | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
horse who does what is. Yours is a bellwether seat, it always goes to | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
the party who wins. Will you campaign on Brexit? We will fight | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
this campaign on our record in government, huge economic growth, | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
drops in unemployment locally, a positive message and we aim to give | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
the Prime Minister a strengthened mandate to negotiate in the most | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
important negotiations we have faced in my lifetime. What issues were | :03:34. | :03:40. | |
Labour say you have failed, health, education and the economy? Tooth | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
spent money on schools and health you need a stronger economy. Labour | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
say they will spend more. Where is the money coming from? We wouldn't | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
have introduced cuts in inheritance tax which benefited the well off, so | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
there is a cash increase but a real terms crisis for schools. We will | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
hear more about that for the next seven weeks. Parliament has two | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
weeks left and they finish their day before the local elections. | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
Still to come, we're live from the scene of roadworks | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
around the M1 which, it's claimed, are costing thousands | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
Happy anniversary to the service that for 30 years has produced | :04:30. | :04:41. | |
nearly 3000 meals a day and delivered them across | :04:42. | :04:42. | |
Nottinghamshire. But next this evening, | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
a motorcyclist is being questioned on suspicion of murdering | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
an elderly motorist. Derbyshire Police say | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
they're investigating Their vehicles collided outside | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
a pub in Grassmoor last night. Our Social Affairs Correspondent, | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
Jeremy Ball, is there. Neighbours here described | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
a shocking scene. What appeared to start as a road | :05:05. | :05:16. | |
accident developed into a row, that's now prompted | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
a murder inquiry. Today the police have been doing | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
house to house inquiries. They say the driver died | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
in hospital, after what they're describing as a "physical | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
altercation". They say road rage is | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
one line of inquiry. And I've been speaking to a woman | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
who was here last night. We just heard a commotion outside | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
so I looked out the window and saw a motorbike and I thought | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
they did my car so I came out to see what were going off but it wasn't | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
and I just asked the elderly gentleman how he was and helped him | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
out more than anything else. Really upsetting, | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
it's just shocking. What do we know about | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
the man who died? He hasn't been formally | :05:57. | :06:06. | |
identified yet. But the police say | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
he was 74 years old. And neighbours tell me he lived | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
nearby, and he was a regular As for the 30-year-old motorcyclist, | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
he's now in custody Derbyshire Police are still | :06:18. | :06:27. | |
appealing for witnesses. Police have released details | :06:28. | :06:37. | |
of a man they want to trace in connection with a series | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
of burglaries in Nottinghamshire. 34-year-old Zbigniew Mirga | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
is described as white, Polish and of medium build | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
with dark hair. One of the incidents | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
being investigated was a distraction burglary involving | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
an elderly person. About a thousand cannabis plants | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
with a street value of half a million pounds have been found | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
during a raid at a former The plants were growing across two | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
floors of the former The property on Cordy Lane used | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
to be called the Yew Tree. You look at the premises | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
and the square feet that this occupies, it's actually not very | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
feasible to find it Yes, we find some in farm buildings | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
and we find some like this in derelict buildings | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
but your average person that grows cannabis does so in a bedroom | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
or upstairs of a house so the thousand plants | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
that were recovered here A business which delivers specialist | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
beds to seriously ill hospital patients is blaming roadworks | :07:40. | :07:47. | |
on and around the M1 Medstrom describes the rush hour | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
gridlock around Junction 23A as a nightmare for them | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
and other businesses. Jo Healey is at Junction 23A | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
where rush-hour traffic has been It doesn't look too bad to night so | :08:03. | :08:21. | |
far. We are no longer in the thick of Rush Bach, plus there is less | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
traffic on the road this week because it is the Easter holiday | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
week but motorists here say it has been horrendous. They are also | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
dreading the weeks and months ahead. It doesn't just impact individual | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
motorists but also local villagers like Di 's worth and Castle | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
Donington, with cars going through them trying to find local routes, | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
and it impacts local businesses. Around 20 times a day they head out | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
to deliver paediatric and adult beds to hospitals across the country, | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
often with a two-hour time limit to reach the patient, | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
but now they say they're Sometimes we can be sat for an hour | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
around the corner and we're under pressure to get these products | :09:02. | :09:08. | |
to the patients who are So why all the roadworks? Work | :09:09. | :09:23. | |
started recently too wide and 7.5 miles at the M1. But at the same | :09:24. | :09:31. | |
time, the major East Midlands Gateway scheme is being built by the | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
side of the A453. Two separate lots of roadworks, same area. | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
Rush hour, we have a gridlock situation where access | :09:40. | :09:41. | |
from the East Midlands Airport onto the A453 and off the M1 just | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
grinds to a halt and I've seen really dangerous behaviour. | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
How there wasn't an accident I just don't know. | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
They say traffic heading for the A50 at Junction 24 is being encouraged | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
to come off the motorway here at Junction 23A to avoid | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
the roadworks on the M1 but what they're then doing | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
is hitting roadworks here on the A453, which businesses | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
The Highways Agency say they are working | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
Work is set to continue here until the end of next year. | :10:15. | :10:30. | |
But of course ultimately this is about investment and the improvement | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
of transport in this area and the Highways Agency says it wants | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
feedback from motorists in the months to come. Be aware that from | :10:42. | :10:49. | |
tonne night, from 9pm until 5am tomorrow, this stretch of the A453 | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
will close completely and according to the site over there it will be | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
like that every night for the next two weeks. | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
There's been an angry reaction after a number of trees | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
were vandalised at an award-winning park for the second | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
The new saplings had been planted at West Park in Long Eaton | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
to replace older trees that had died. | :11:12. | :11:13. | |
They were found damaged after the Easter weekend. | :11:14. | :11:15. | |
Erewash Borough Council is asking people to call the police | :11:16. | :11:17. | |
People have taken the time and effort to go and plant these | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
and make it look like a nice environment for people | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
and families to go and play in and have a nice time in, | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
and people have just destroyed it, and I think it's quite sad. | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
When you see it, it is downright disgusting and I think in a way | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
The council have paid to make the park a better place | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
for the community and with this being vandalised, | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
Next, the East Midlands industry experiencing a revival. | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
New figures show that, in the last four years, | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
around 600 jobs have been created in the region's | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
It's down to a combination of government and private investment. | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
But manufacturers say, given that this is a ?9 billion | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
a year UK industry, even more investment is needed. | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
William Ball has been in Ilkeston for 186 years, | :12:08. | :12:18. | |
The managing director kept me from the 19th-century building to show me | :12:19. | :12:29. | |
the new manufacturing sector just behind. This is for the aerospace | :12:30. | :12:38. | |
industry, this is for medical use in hospitals and then this is for | :12:39. | :12:40. | |
fabrics. Recent government investment saw | :12:41. | :12:41. | |
the growth of jobs here. It safeguards 14 jobs, | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
so it is significant. Investment has been across the | :12:46. | :12:58. | |
region. The textile growth fund says textile firms have invested one | :12:59. | :13:07. | |
point -- millions of pounds of their own money, creating 540 jobs, the | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
largest number in Leicestershire. But the chairman of the cities | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
manufacturing association say they could get more jobs if they get | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
backing for our proper training centre in the city. We would like to | :13:24. | :13:35. | |
do more in the Leicester economy and the European economy. After Brexit | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
we will have to contribute more towards the English economy and we | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
would like to tell people involved in the textile business, please | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
support us. Do you think the powers that be underestimated the strength | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
of the textile industry? Absolutely, they did a study that found it | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
generates ?9 billion for the economy. Despite this the company | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
believes their investment is looking good for the future, while Leicester | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
say if training improved, they can attract better trained staff into | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
the industry. Fingers crossed! Seeing that bit of | :14:17. | :14:25. | |
cloth... Collen is always good for the suits. | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
Thank you, I make an effort. Leicester City's charge | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
at the Champions League ends at the hands of last year s | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
finalists Atletico Madrid. They once again defied odds | :14:35. | :14:36. | |
and expectations to get For a while last night, | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
it felt like they might even But first, here's Mark Shardlow's | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
report on a journey's end. It's been a magical ride, | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
one they'll never forget. After 90 minutes there | :14:48. | :14:49. | |
was just nothing left. As a football club I think we can be | :14:50. | :15:02. | |
proud of how we conducted ourselves It's pretty sad that the dream | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
ends here for us but We have to be proud of ourselves, | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
we gave it our all. Leicester, 1-0 down from the first | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
leg, soon found themselves needing It's not all over but it | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
will be some story A half-time shake-up and a second | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
half of hope, passion and a goal. Albrighton gets across | :15:24. | :15:30. | |
it, back post header. Leicester have got a lifeline, | :15:31. | :15:33. | |
it's Jamie Vardy! When we scored that one, | :15:34. | :15:48. | |
I had that feeling, I just felt Leicester had 22 shots | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
on the night but the ball wasn't bouncing their way and as much | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
as they attacked, for once in this crazy two years, | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
it wasn't going to be their night. Well, who says there's | :16:01. | :16:08. | |
no glory in defeat? It's been brilliant, | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
a great journey. We've done so well, and it's | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
moments like this that make So Britain's last | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
remaining club are out. But despite the doubters, | :16:17. | :16:23. | |
Leicester have never looked out If you said it you wouldn't believe | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
it, you can't believe it's happened. We're no longer a small club, | :16:29. | :16:36. | |
this is a big club. It's been a wonderful adventure | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
and let's hope we can do it again. They look down and out there, | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
but Leicester have reached heights they can never | :16:46. | :17:05. | |
have dreamed of. Well, former Foxes star | :17:06. | :17:06. | |
Gerry Taggart is here. Let's start with your | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
feelings about last night. Did you have points | :17:13. | :17:14. | |
where you thought, It was a very difficult game, the | :17:15. | :17:27. | |
first half especially, that was one of the best defensive displays I | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
have ever seen, Atletico Madrid work awesome and how they were organised | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
without the ball. In the second half Craig Shakespeare had to change | :17:40. | :17:40. | |
something and it worked. What were your emotions like | :17:41. | :17:42. | |
as you watched that second half? When the first goal went in, we all | :17:43. | :17:53. | |
thought momentum is back, we're in charge, but they needed that second | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
goal and couldn't get it and in the end they ran out of steam. They gave | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
everything they had but it wasn't enough and the best team went | :18:03. | :18:03. | |
through. It's the end of things | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
in the Champions League. It's the end of a two year ride, | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
the Greatest Escape, the 5000 to one Premier League | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
win and this. To say it's been a roller-coaster | :18:13. | :18:23. | |
ride is an understatement, you go from the great escape to winning the | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
league to get into the quarterfinals of a Champions League, but an | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
amazing journey for this club and hopefully we will see something else | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
in the future. That is the key question. You heard fans say we are | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
not a small club anymore so what next for Leicester? Starting from | :18:44. | :18:50. | |
next season, who will be the man in charge, and then from that you have | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
to work out the recruitment of new players, they cannot stand still in | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
the transfer market but who will be in charge to take the club forward | :19:00. | :19:06. | |
next season and beyond? For me Craig Shakespeare deserves that chance. He | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
showed he can handle the big European nights, the Premier League | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
congestion fixtures so for me he deserves that chance. | :19:15. | :19:16. | |
The club put on a hell of a show last night. | :19:17. | :19:18. | |
Can they somehow keep that whole mood going? | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
I think they have created something new and special and something | :19:22. | :19:28. | |
exciting, we were all there to see it last night and it would make the | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
hairs of the back of your neck stand on end, more of that please, I think | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
that is the way it will go in future. It was amazing, thanks so | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
much for coming in. Derbyshire swimming star Adam Peaty | :19:42. | :19:43. | |
won the British hundred metre breaststroke title last night | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
and promptly gave away his medal to try and inspire | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
a swimmer for the future. and qualified for the | :19:52. | :19:53. | |
World Championships - And afterwards found a young swimmer | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
from Retford in the crowd If it was any medal except for my | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
Olympic one I think I would offer to give it away because you get | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
so many of them. I don't want to sound arrogant | :20:09. | :20:10. | |
but for me the race is what matters, the process and going to Budapest, | :20:11. | :20:14. | |
this is just a qualifying, hopefully giving that medal away | :20:15. | :20:16. | |
will inspire him to train even harder for the next part | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
of his career, and even if it's for a week or a year, | :20:22. | :20:23. | |
maybe inspire someone. And here he is - | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
Harry Brancham, who swims When I went to school today to show | :20:27. | :20:28. | |
it they were all really amazed. I've followed him for quite | :20:29. | :20:37. | |
a while now and he's my idol. And staying in the pool, | :20:38. | :20:50. | |
there was a British record for Derbyshire's Imogen Clark | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
in the 50 metre breastroke. Her long time county rival | :20:57. | :20:58. | |
Sarah Vasey was a close second. And finally, congratulations | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
to Leicester Tigers stars Both selected for the British | :21:01. | :21:02. | |
and Irish Lions tour Now, what are you having | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
for dinner tonight? Chances are it's something that | :21:06. | :21:19. | |
Nottinghamshire County Council regularly cooks up for its Meals | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
at Home service which is Around 1500 residents | :21:24. | :21:25. | |
regularly tuck into the meals But the service's delivery drivers | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
say they strive to provide more So Carol Hinds has been | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
to see them in action. Chocolate sponge. Oh, lovely. Lunch | :21:37. | :21:56. | |
is served to Victor and Brenda, the 90 and 87-year-old have been using | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
Nottinghamshire Council's meals at home service for 18 months. Monday | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
to Friday, at the weekend I'd do a bit of cooking for two days, it's | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
all I can manage. It's an excellent meal and I recommend it to anyone. | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
We produced nearly 3000 and 1000 of these go to people in their own | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
homes, we also provide meals for a day centres and other delivery | :22:27. | :22:33. | |
services across the country. Diane has worked for the service for 20 | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
years. Her lunchtime drop-offs take all over West Bridgford. For her at | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
the job is more than just delivering food. The meal is important but also | :22:44. | :22:50. | |
that safety check. It helps people when they need you and you call an | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
ambulance or a family member. All the meals are cooked from scratch | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
and staff site there are many benefits. It enables people to live | :23:02. | :23:07. | |
independently and can be used as a short-term service as well as | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
long-term. This series the service celebrates 30 years of producing | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
meals. I suppose fish is my favourite. Fish stew or dumplings. | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
Yes, very nice. It's not looking too bad in the next | :23:24. | :23:39. | |
few days, a little cloudy but we had some bright spells this morning. It | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
got a little cloudy this afternoon, so as we look at the detail for | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
tomorrow, cloudy with some brighter spells later, a few showers here and | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
there. This was the position earlier today, we had that cloud from the | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
north but still some brighter spells in places. For the next few days we | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
still have high pressure in charge of the weather so we expect it to be | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
fairly settled but on this occasion that doesn't mean wall-to-wall | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
sunshine. Tonne night that cloud will continue to feed down from the | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
north, just a few spits and spots are showers, nothing much to trouble | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
us with with those of seven Celsius. Tomorrow we'll start off cloudy, | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
again these lights patchy showers moving across the region but in | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
between that cloud will then and break with a few brighter spells and | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
highs around 15 Celsius so feeling more pleasant tomorrow, especially | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
where we get that sunshine. Similar on Friday, the odd shower but quite | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
cloudy and high pressure staying with us into the weekend, so I'll | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
leave you with the outlook. We may get more drizzle on Saturday but | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
slightly drier and brighter as we go toward Sunday. | :25:04. | :25:12. | |
Drizzle, Saturday? Surely not. I will be back for the late news at | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
10:30pm or thereabouts. I hope you can join us then. | :25:18. | :25:18. |
