:00:20. > :00:25.Good evening. David Cameron faces criticism. He is not using the

:00:25. > :00:32.money to help our heroes. We need - - we made a promise to the poorest

:00:32. > :00:39.people, we should keep that promise. More criticism of an under fire

:00:39. > :00:44.hospital. Things need to change, these are professional people, and

:00:44. > :00:49.the vulnerable go into hospital. Fenced in, claims that new security

:00:49. > :00:56.measures are not good for children. Following the hunt ball

:00:56. > :01:06.Lincolnshire's most a normal person, this artist makes her final choice.

:01:06. > :01:11.Or the weather details. -- all the weather details.

:01:11. > :01:16.Good evening. The Prime Minister has told BBC Look North that he

:01:16. > :01:21.will not back down on his decision to spend more money on overseas aid,

:01:21. > :01:31.whilst making cuts at home. He has spent much of the day in

:01:31. > :01:34.

:01:34. > :01:42.Lincolnshire. Mr Cameron said -- was asked why he is slashed and --

:01:42. > :01:48./ in the Budget. The Red Arrows welcomed the Prime

:01:48. > :01:54.Minister to Lincolnshire. David Cameron was given the honour of

:01:54. > :02:00.inspecting graduating cadets at RAF Cranwell. He praised the efforts of

:02:00. > :02:06.the RAF. Despite some recent defence cuts, he said he would not

:02:06. > :02:14.compromise when it came into the nation a's security. Yet one in 10

:02:15. > :02:19.of these recruits will not become pilots, he and face redundancy. --

:02:19. > :02:25.and face redundancy. The way the money is spent came under scrutiny

:02:25. > :02:33.at his next stop. These workers took part in a question and answer

:02:33. > :02:37.session. This woman asked why spending on overseas aid had gone

:02:37. > :02:41.up while spending on the armed forces had gone down? We made a

:02:41. > :02:47.promise, to some of the poorest people in the world, I think we

:02:47. > :02:53.should keep that promise. To let them down, I think that would be

:02:53. > :02:58.wrong. I do not think he answered my question. He was giving me other

:02:58. > :03:06.information. He never said why we are spending money abroad, but not

:03:06. > :03:10.using it to help our heroes. tried again. I think charity begins

:03:10. > :03:13.in the home. We have responsibilities to others, if we

:03:13. > :03:18.made a promise to the poorest people in the world, have I think

:03:18. > :03:24.we should keep that promise. If we are saving lives. We are helping

:03:24. > :03:31.ourselves. It means less immigration, less terrorism. For a

:03:31. > :03:37.more prosperous world. He knows that many disagree with him. He

:03:37. > :03:45.said he enjoyed taking part in a lively debate in Lincolnshire.

:03:45. > :03:49.Why is it this policy so controversial? He committed to

:03:49. > :03:54.spending �800 million on vaccines for children in the poorest

:03:54. > :03:59.countries in the world. That equates to around six times the

:03:59. > :04:04.amount being made by Lincolnshire County Council over the next four

:04:04. > :04:09.years. Many people on his own government say he has got his

:04:09. > :04:16.priorities wrong. During the last election he promised to remain --

:04:16. > :04:23.to ring fence two areas, help and international aid. He feels very

:04:23. > :04:26.strongly about this. During this visit, he must -- he

:04:26. > :04:31.described to a report into care at Boston Pilgrim Hospital as

:04:31. > :04:35.disturbing. There was a report published by the Care Quality

:04:35. > :04:40.Commission that examines how well patients are looked after. They say

:04:40. > :04:44.they have major concerns about this hospital. He in a moment we were

:04:44. > :04:48.here from the man responsible for the hospital, but first this report.

:04:48. > :04:53.He it has been a particularly torrid three months for hospital

:04:53. > :05:03.macro. Today, patients and staff will have found little to comfort

:05:03. > :05:03.

:05:03. > :05:08.them. This independent body looks after health care across England.

:05:08. > :05:14.David Cameron called it a disturbing report. We are talking

:05:14. > :05:19.about basic levels of service, nutrition, food and care. According

:05:19. > :05:24.to the CQC Boston Pilgrim Hospital is not meeting the expected

:05:24. > :05:31.standards in 12 out of 16 categories. Particular concern

:05:31. > :05:36.means care and treatment is not delivered. Questions were raised

:05:36. > :05:43.about been adequate nutrition, and rehydration. Cleanliness was also

:05:43. > :05:49.an issue. It is the hospital a's owner monitoring systems which has

:05:49. > :05:54.raised particular concerns. We have decided to carry out this

:05:54. > :06:01.investigation to take a different look at the muttering processes.

:06:01. > :06:06.The hospital's problems go back to April. The first inspection found a

:06:06. > :06:12.damning report published. There was enforcement action announced.

:06:12. > :06:15.Earlier this month, Lincolnshire Police investigated allegations in

:06:15. > :06:20.to this treatment of patients. The hospital is carrying out its own

:06:20. > :06:25.separate investigation over claims that Brian Smith, who was dying

:06:25. > :06:29.from pneumonia, was denied basic nursing care. His treatment was not

:06:29. > :06:38.unusual according to this patient's mother. Her mother, Laura has spent

:06:38. > :06:43.many months in hospital. It is attention to detail, it concerns me.

:06:43. > :06:48.There is concern over food, drink and bedpans. We asked the bedpans,

:06:48. > :06:53.it took so long to bring them. Inspectors are due back at the

:06:53. > :06:58.hospital next to me, managers have just a month to sort out the main

:06:58. > :07:03.concerns of all face serious sanctions.

:07:03. > :07:10.Andrew North is the cheeselike that -- chief executive of the trust

:07:10. > :07:14.which runs Boston Pilgrim Hospital. I spoke to him earlier. The first

:07:14. > :07:24.thing I would like to say was that we were extremely upset about what

:07:24. > :07:27.

:07:27. > :07:34.did CQC found -- be CQC bound. I would like to apologise to anyone

:07:34. > :07:40.who feels let down. We have been working extremely hard to try and

:07:40. > :07:45.address those concerns. We clearly have not made sufficient progress.

:07:45. > :07:54.We are committed to improving the quality of services we deliver. We

:07:54. > :07:58.will not relent in that effort. We want the right level of service. We

:07:58. > :08:02.want to be consistent in all parts of the hospital. The Prime Minister

:08:02. > :08:10.has said these findings are disturbing, that is hugely

:08:10. > :08:15.embarrassing for you. He is he right to be disturbed? We were all

:08:15. > :08:21.very disappointed. We realise we have a huge amount of work to give

:08:21. > :08:26.up the right quality of service. We are absolutely committed. If we

:08:26. > :08:34.have made some important changes. We have introduced different ways

:08:34. > :08:44.of working. The CQC have acknowledged that. There has been

:08:44. > :08:48.

:08:48. > :08:57.many improvements. One of the steps was getting nurses to ask questions.

:08:57. > :09:07.They are basic questions, Janet and John at staff, this should be there

:09:07. > :09:07.

:09:08. > :09:16.all the time. We want a systematic structure. We wanted to be

:09:16. > :09:24.absolutely satisfied that the care of patients is primary. We want to

:09:24. > :09:31.be patient to be satisfied. We want the evidence to be recorded. We

:09:31. > :09:41.want the revised approach is to been applied consistently -- to be

:09:41. > :09:41.

:09:41. > :09:51.applied consistently. Two nurses have the basic commonsense? -- do

:09:51. > :09:53.

:09:53. > :10:00.and nurses. I am not convinced of that. They wanted to deliver the

:10:00. > :10:06.best quality service. On the vast majority other occasions the

:10:06. > :10:11.service to meet the requirements and expectations of the patients.

:10:11. > :10:21.We did not have that level of service consistently. I can only

:10:21. > :10:21.

:10:21. > :10:26.apologise for that. I can reassure people that we are absolutely

:10:26. > :10:34.focused on improving the quality of service we provide. We want

:10:34. > :10:39.patients to receive these -- to receive the service they deserve.

:10:39. > :10:46.Would you be happy if a member of your family was treated in the

:10:46. > :10:50.hospital? I am not happy if any user of a hospital is let down as a

:10:50. > :10:59.consequence of the service we provide. Whether or not they are

:10:59. > :11:04.related to me does not change my expectation, nor my determination

:11:04. > :11:09.to ensure that we move to a situation where people can expect a

:11:09. > :11:19.consistent a level of service. Thank you very much indeed.

:11:19. > :11:19.

:11:19. > :11:29.There you are. I would like to throw this one open. What is your

:11:29. > :11:32.

:11:32. > :11:38.experience of that hospital. Do you have any thoughts on this? Contact

:11:38. > :11:45.have any thoughts on this? Contact have any thoughts on this? Contact

:11:45. > :11:47.us on the addresses below. Some mourn these now.

:11:47. > :11:50.Detectives investigating the death of Grimsby man Adam Vincent have

:11:50. > :11:53.found a human leg. Police divers are searching Scawby Brook near

:11:53. > :11:55.Brigg after the discovery yesterday. The partial remains of Adam Vincent

:11:55. > :12:03.were recovered from Tetney Lock near Grimsby in March, six people

:12:03. > :12:07.have been charged in connection with his death. Hull City Council

:12:07. > :12:14.has approved an amendment to its budget. They say it will save money

:12:14. > :12:21.on industrial -- on payouts. Police teams are searching

:12:21. > :12:28.woodlands around Pocklington. A a 62-year-old man who has Parkinson's

:12:28. > :12:34.disease has vanished. He was last seen the body when free walk. --

:12:34. > :12:38.last seen many when pre-war car. Plans to extend and animal breeding

:12:38. > :12:48.centre have been rejected. B & K Universal wanted to extend their

:12:48. > :12:56.

:12:56. > :13:00.centre where beagles are ready. -- are bred. There were as much...

:13:00. > :13:10.Many allies were here today. It was an application by B & K Universal

:13:10. > :13:11.

:13:11. > :13:15.to extend its premises here in Grimston. They want to breed these

:13:15. > :13:21.animals for research. We have rejected this application because

:13:21. > :13:28.the roads around Grimston are not up to wit. They would have to carry

:13:28. > :13:36.the construction equipment. It is a monumental decision. It will save

:13:36. > :13:46.2000 dogs from a life are suffering. The council have rejected this on

:13:46. > :13:46.

:13:47. > :13:54.traffic concerns. You did not win? -- did not win? It was down to

:13:54. > :13:59.everything including tourism. Tata Steel refused to comment, but they

:13:59. > :14:03.did make a point that there is a national need for animals to be

:14:03. > :14:08.bred for research in the UK. They said that if the application was

:14:08. > :14:13.refused they would be forced to house beagles in their old

:14:13. > :14:16.buildings which needed modernisation. They can of course

:14:16. > :14:26.appeal the decision. But campaigners to see this as their

:14:26. > :14:29.

:14:29. > :14:36.victory in a fight to stop testing Thank you for watching. Still to

:14:36. > :14:40.come: mums join campaigners helping to keep a Children's Heart Unit

:14:40. > :14:48.open. Lincolnshire's most normal person.

:14:48. > :14:55.This artist makes her final choice. Tonight's picture is looking across

:14:55. > :15:03.the Humber at Cleethorpes. Another picture tomorrow night at the same

:15:03. > :15:13.time. You didn't make the short list for most normal person then?

:15:13. > :15:19.

:15:19. > :15:26.list for most normal person then? I'm not in Lincolnshire.

:15:26. > :15:34.The headlines for the next 24 hours at is an unsettled one. Through to

:15:34. > :15:39.tomorrow, scattered showers. Look at this for a summer time chart,

:15:39. > :15:45.more like something from November. That pushes across and by Saturday

:15:45. > :15:51.it should be out into the North Sea, so perhaps another 10 or 15 mm of

:15:52. > :15:59.rain before it clears on Saturday. You can see some clouds on the

:15:59. > :16:05.satellite pictures. Those are sharp showers. Any scattered showers

:16:06. > :16:15.should largely die away. All parts becoming dry with clear spells.

:16:16. > :16:16.

:16:16. > :16:25.Temperatures down to around eight Celsius. The sun will rise at 429 A

:16:25. > :16:29.M. It should be a nice start today, more stars will be dry and bright

:16:30. > :16:34.with a fair amount of sunshine. You will find a few showers breaking

:16:34. > :16:41.out by the end of the morning. Through the afternoon, cloud

:16:41. > :16:44.thickens and rain threatens from the south. The best of the weather

:16:44. > :16:51.will be at first tomorrow, top temperatures coming in around 17

:16:51. > :16:56.Celsius. Moderate south-west wind will back off by tomorrow evening.

:16:56. > :17:02.I thoroughly wet Friday evening and Friday night and the first part of

:17:02. > :17:07.Saturday morning, around 10 mm of rain, great news for farmers.

:17:07. > :17:13.Sunday maybe the best of the days but still wet.

:17:13. > :17:17.I can tell you how embarrassing it was last night after those comments

:17:17. > :17:22.about the residents' association. You're in my bad books, see you

:17:22. > :17:30.tomorrow. Parents and Lincolnshire have been

:17:30. > :17:32.rallying against the closure of a children's heart surgery unit.

:17:32. > :17:35.Campaigners say they'll have to travel to either Birmingham or

:17:35. > :17:38.London if the centre in Leicester closes. But the NHS says the

:17:38. > :17:40.quality of care will be improved if fewer hospitals carry out heart

:17:40. > :17:42.operations on children. Simon Spark reports.

:17:42. > :17:45.Improvements to children's heart surgery within the NHS comes at a

:17:45. > :17:48.price, a price of cutting the number of heart surgery centres

:17:48. > :17:53.across the country, and these are the latest people who don't want to

:17:53. > :17:56.see that happen. They're rallying against proposals that could see

:17:56. > :18:01.the closure of the Children's Heart Unit in Leicester, used by many

:18:01. > :18:04.Lincolnshire families. Families like the Nortons, Whose son Harry

:18:04. > :18:08.was diagnosed with heart problems when he was still in his mother's

:18:08. > :18:18.womb. He had his first emergency operation when he was just 15 days

:18:18. > :18:19.

:18:19. > :18:23.old. He has had two heart operations already. He will have a

:18:23. > :18:27.third one at around four years old. You cannot describe what you go

:18:27. > :18:32.through. Your emotions are on a roller-coaster. The whole future is

:18:32. > :18:35.completely changed. Because of Harry's need for future care his

:18:35. > :18:41.parents are angry that they'll lose the staff that have repeatedly

:18:41. > :18:44.saved their son's life. Just last month it was the same reaction for

:18:44. > :18:51.the people who use the centre in Leeds, Even the surgeons have gone

:18:51. > :18:59.public with their feelings. There saying there is no danger to our

:18:59. > :19:03.children but there is. There saying that people have to move to the

:19:03. > :19:07.doctors, but it is the doctors to have to move to the people. He

:19:07. > :19:10.should have to move to people. NHS want to concentrate children's

:19:10. > :19:12.heart surgery in fewer places. For people in Lincolnshire the closure

:19:12. > :19:19.of the Leicester centre would mean travelling to Birmingham or London,

:19:19. > :19:22.the centre in Leeds is also under threat. The Children's Heart

:19:22. > :19:26.Federation is convinced there is a need for change. More children

:19:26. > :19:28.would survive under would be better care afterwards as it would provide

:19:28. > :19:32.better specialisation for the really complex surgery we're

:19:32. > :19:40.talking about. The current consultation will end on July 1st

:19:40. > :19:42.with a final decision expected later in the year.

:19:43. > :19:48.An East Yorkshire head teacher has described the rules governing

:19:48. > :19:52.security in schools as ludicrous. Chris would -- Chris Goodwin runs

:19:52. > :19:57.Beverley Grammar School and claims OFSTED's rules are turning schools

:19:57. > :20:02.into prisons. This comes after an increasing number applying to local

:20:02. > :20:08.councils were up permission to put up 6 ft-high fences.

:20:08. > :20:14.It is designed to keep children in and intruders out. At this school,

:20:14. > :20:20.and defence as a sign of the times. Not ideal, says the school's head

:20:20. > :20:22.teacher, but something that gives him and the staff peace of mind.

:20:22. > :20:30.him and the staff peace of mind. means you don't have to go around

:20:30. > :20:35.looking for dangerous items. You used to get these smash down and

:20:35. > :20:39.things smashed up. Hundreds of schools could soon be surrounded by

:20:39. > :20:46.these rings of steel, a drastic measure that opponents say is going

:20:46. > :20:52.too far. This sense has been recently put in but they do not

:20:53. > :20:55.think it is high enough to meet OFSTED standards. Chris Goodwin

:20:55. > :20:59.blames this health and safety on OFSTED inspectors. He things that

:20:59. > :21:05.have left schools with an over- cautious culture which hinders

:21:05. > :21:12.children's education. We see this in the way science is being taught

:21:12. > :21:17.and then people worry over not attracting scientists. Boys in

:21:17. > :21:23.particular are not being dragged down, and health and safety is

:21:23. > :21:32.impacting on their experiences. OFSTED says it is local authorities

:21:32. > :21:37.that work with schools to implement security. Because of the low levels

:21:37. > :21:40.of vandalism, break-ins and so on they are experiencing, it is a

:21:40. > :21:47.constant drain and their resources. It is better to spend some money on

:21:47. > :21:51.the resources now it than later on. It is predicted more safety

:21:51. > :21:54.measures in schools will follow. One head teacher says he can no

:21:54. > :21:59.longer carry around a cup of coffee around the school for fear of

:21:59. > :22:03.children being scalded. Another one you might like to

:22:03. > :22:06.comment on. Joining me in the studio as Dr Jeremy Dunning Davis

:22:07. > :22:12.from the Campaign for Real Education. Fences around schools:

:22:12. > :22:16.what you think? I think it is completely over-the-top and I can

:22:16. > :22:21.well understand the concerns of some parents. They think it is

:22:21. > :22:25.turning schools into prisons or worse. The council has had more

:22:25. > :22:28.requests for these offences. Surely it is better than a drain on

:22:28. > :22:35.resources caused by vandalism? goes back to the question of

:22:35. > :22:40.discipline. Everything Mr Goodwin has said is absolutely true and

:22:40. > :22:44.should be noted. If only the give authority back to be teachers,

:22:44. > :22:50.allow them to impose discipline in schools, it will cut out problems

:22:50. > :22:56.later on. It is the schools that are asking for it. East Riding says

:22:56. > :23:01.it has never had so many requests. I am just amazed. To have a

:23:01. > :23:04.boundary fence to stop stray dogs coming in... The sort defence we

:23:04. > :23:09.saw earlier in the programme, I thought was completely over the top

:23:09. > :23:19.and unnecessary. If it saves money on vandalism that money could do

:23:19. > :23:23.used in the school. It is not the teachers' fault it is that people

:23:23. > :23:27.controlling the teachers. Local authorities get so worked up, and

:23:27. > :23:32.they think Mr Goodwin has said there getting worked up about

:23:32. > :23:38.paedophiles, which is a problem but how big a problem? Has OFSTED got

:23:38. > :23:42.it wrong? I think of said get it wrong over virtually everything. If

:23:42. > :23:49.you if placed OFSTED with Mr Goodwin I think it would be an

:23:49. > :23:54.improvement. Thank you for coming The draw has been made for the

:23:54. > :23:58.first round of football's Carling Cup. Hull City had been drawn at

:23:58. > :24:05.home well Scunthorpe face an away trip to Accrington Stanley. The

:24:05. > :24:08.matches take place on 2nd August. We can reveal tonight that link

:24:08. > :24:13.injure's most normal person has been revealed as part of another

:24:13. > :24:22.project. The hunt was on for Mr or Mrs Normal since March. She has

:24:22. > :24:27.been found: 53-year-old Ellen Clayton of Lincoln.

:24:27. > :24:32.It is an almost Thursday for Ellen Clayton. She is a grandmother and

:24:32. > :24:41.great-grandmother, with all the normal mementos around the house.

:24:41. > :24:47.They're my granddaughter's, and those are my grandson's. Ellen does

:24:47. > :24:52.her make-up and get her normal bus at 12:30pm, a walk that takes 10

:24:52. > :24:58.minutes. She is so normal, she has been given a special title: Mrs

:24:58. > :25:05.Normal. There were students around and they took no notice but became

:25:05. > :25:12.and approached me. They asked me what I thought and if it was normal.
