Good evening, and welcome to BBC Look North. The headlines tonight: | :00:04. | :00:07. | |
How foreign workers are keeping industries in East Yorkshire and | :00:07. | :00:17. | |
:00:17. | :00:17. | ||
Lincolnshire alive. You can only employed people who come for the | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
jobs. We have around 70 % of migrant workers at the factory. | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
The Lincoln mum fighting to save a heart unit from closing as final | :00:27. | :00:35. | |
appeals are made. It caused us a great worry to not know where the | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
future will be. And a new kit for Lincoln City as | :00:40. | :00:49. | |
the team prepares for life outside the Football League. I am live at | :00:49. | :00:56. | |
RAF Waddington. These aircraft are preparing to take to the skies and | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
entertain around 100,000 people and will there be sunshine over the | :01:01. | :01:08. | |
weekend? I will have the sole forecast later. | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
-- the full forecast. "We'd be lost without them." That | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
is the view of agricultural leaders in Lincolnshire about their non- | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
British workforce. But the Work and Pensions Secretary, Iain Duncan | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
Smith, is urging businesses to take on more unemployed Britons and stop | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
relying on labour from abroad. Tonight, there are calls for the | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
government to provide better training to make the british | :01:34. | :01:44. | |
:01:44. | :01:44. | ||
workforce more suitable. Paul Murphy has the story. | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
Two-thirds of the workforce at this onion packing factory are migrants. | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
That is not unusual in the Lincolnshire food processing | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
industry. This company says it tries to recruit British workers, | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
but struggles to find them. You can only employed the people who come | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
for the jobs. We have around 70 % of migrant workers at the factory, | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
and the majority of jobs that we have advertised we get very few | :02:13. | :02:19. | |
English, British people coming for the interviews. Iain Duncan-Smith's | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
comments signal a clear hardening of the stands on the use of migrant | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
labour. We have to ensure that our immigration service works in the | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
interest of Britain, enabling us to make it realistic promise to our | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
young people. The National Farmers' Union in Lincolnshire says the | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
government needs to recognise that British workers can sometimes be | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
unwilling or unsuitable for farm work. When employees have equipment | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
worth hundreds of thousands of pounds, and we are expected to take | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
young people on, we need an incentive to be able to train them | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
properly. We also need the people to come with an ethic of wanting to | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
work. Jobseeker's in Hull, and there are around 40 for every | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
vacancy, say competition is fierce. For I think at the moment I am | :03:10. | :03:17. | |
struggling to find work, a few years ago he it was easier. How I | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
think a lot of the jobs are taken up by people who come from other | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
countries. The British are lazy. There are so many jobs out there. | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
But the do not like them. Back at the onion factory, they will tell | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
you that nationality is irrelevant. They just want the best people for | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
the job, and, at this point in time, few of them are British. | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
Earlier, I spoke to Alp Mehmet from the independent body Migration | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
Watch UK. He told me he supported what Iain Duncan Smith had said | :03:51. | :04:01. | |
:04:01. | :04:02. | ||
today. Of course, what he said needed to be said. For the first | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
time, as soon knew a member of the government has had the guts to come | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
out with something that a lot of people have known for a long time. | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
We support and encourage and welcomed what he has said. There | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
are jobs out there, particularly in this part of the world, in the | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
agricultural sector. But employers say that British people do not want | :04:23. | :04:31. | |
those jobs. Some may not want to, but what I look at is the overall | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
figures. If we have nearly one million youngsters between 16 and | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
24 unemployed. No one is telling me that out of that one million, there | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
are not those who are desperate for work. But the employers are telling | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
us, I have spoken to a farmer, they do not apply for the jobs. If he | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
does not have the migrant workers, he does not have a work force. | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
you look at particular areas, there may be difficulties. But I am sure | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
that a new area, there are many people outside the agricultural | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
sector who are desperate for work, and they would have liked an | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
opportunity. It the migrant workers do not do the jobs, and British | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
people do, that will cost, it will cost employers, and the tax payer | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
will end up paying for that, won't they? For why should it do that? | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
Why should we be paying for foreigners who come here looking | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
for work and do not get it? Because the employers will have to pay more | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
money. If you are saying that those who are being employed from | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
overseas cost less, they are cheaper to employee, they are | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
easier to hire and fire, they are easier to push around, I do not | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
think that is a good enough reason to be employed in foreigners at the | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
expense of British workers. What needs to change? I think that this | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
is something that needs to go over a period. We need to look at | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
apprenticeships, for example, apprenticeships were something that | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
were a feature of the employment scene here over many years, and | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
suddenly they seem to have disappeared. We need to look at | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
that, and we need to encourage young people to get the necessary | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
skills. But it is no good saying that we do not have the skills here, | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
when we have one million people unemployed, who we could be | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
training so that we have the skills base in the future. And then | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
complaining in 10 years' time because we do not have those skills | :06:33. | :06:43. | |
around, because we have not trained them. Thank you for your time. | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
Many people are saying that Iain Duncan-Smith is very brave of for | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
speaking out. What do you think about this story? | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
Is it time for businesses to employ more British workers and rely less | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
on foreign migrants? What impact would that have on an industry like | :06:56. | :07:06. | |
:07:06. | :07:25. | ||
agriculture in Lincolnshire? How local people have help to | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
revive a struggling Lincolnshire town. | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
It is claimed families of children with heart problems could face long | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
journeys at times of extreme stress in order to get future treatment. | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
The NHS is planning to close our nearest child heart surgery units | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
in Leeds and Leicester in order to create new Centres of Excellence. | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
The consultation ends today, with a decision expected later this year. | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
Crispin Rolfe reports. A normal toddler playing ball. But | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
Ed was born with heart complications, which have meant two | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
major operations. Up until now, they have been conducted at the | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
Child Heart Unit in Leicester. But that now faces closure, leaving mum | :08:07. | :08:16. | |
Mel to wonder where her son's third operation will take place. It is | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
easier to know you only have one hour to go down the road. To know | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
that it could be two-and-a-half hours, it brings an amount of worry | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
to any parent. It causes me so much worry to think we might not naked | :08:29. | :08:35. | |
in time if he goes into heart failure. An NHS review could see | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
specialist child heart units close in both Leicester and Leeds, | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
forcing families to travel to Birmingham, London or Newcastle for | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
future treatment. But with only 31 child heart surgeons in England and | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
Wales, it is claimed a core of 6 or 7 specialist units would help staff | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
improve their skills for the 3500 operations which take place each | :08:50. | :09:00. | |
:09:00. | :09:04. | ||
year. Although some parents agree with the mauve, others are | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
protesting. The committee that is giving this recommendation will go | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
through all the documents that have been sent through the consultation | :09:13. | :09:19. | |
period over the last four months, and then we will come to some | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
recommendations of which centres to stay open and which to close. | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
Hull mum Julie Chambers is supporting the move. Her daughter | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
Zoe underwent a heart transplant in Newcastle, which helped prolong her | :09:30. | :09:37. | |
short life. I would travel to the end of the earth to get at. So | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
travel is important, but I do it all the time, and I would do it | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
again. Today has been the last day of this consultation, and for | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
families like Mel's it is as much about the uncertainty as the | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
distance or change. But when the decision is made this autumn, it | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
seems likely that in Ed faces a long journey for the treatment | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
which will help him lead a healthy life. | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
Earlier I spoke to Cecilia Yardley from the Children's Heart | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
Federation and asked her what the benefits of these changes would be | :10:05. | :10:15. | |
for patients. These changes are all about bringing better care for | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
children, better care at the time of surgery and also ongoing. So | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
parents should be reassured that their children will have a better | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
quality of life after these changes. Some parents are saying they have | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
to travel further afield at already distressing times. And that it will | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
put added pressure on them and maybe even put the children's lives | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
at risk? We are taking very seriously those concerns, and we | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
have asked for particularly -- particular help for families on low | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
income has war who do not have access to a car. Most children only | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
need one operation. So the surgery changes and the travelling should | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
not affect families on an ongoing basis. The cardiology services, the | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
ongoing care and support will remain in the same places. Is there | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
not a danger that this is more about saving money than saving | :11:12. | :11:18. | |
lives? No, in fact, this review has grown out of the Bristol baby | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
tragedy, where it became clear that it was very important to bring | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
surgeons together into larger teams, doing more operations, to build up | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
their skills. This is an entirely clinically driven programme, to | :11:32. | :11:40. | |
make the lives of children better for them. Thank you for your time. | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
Pig farmers from East Yorkshire have been demanding a fairer deal | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
for their fellow farmers from one of the world's biggest retailers. | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
Tesco says it is working with the pig industry to help suppliers deal | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
with rising costs. But that didn't stop demonstrations which were held | :11:54. | :12:03. | |
outside the supermarket's annual general meeting today. Major | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
retailers are making on average �16 million per week profit out of the | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
pigs that pig farmers sell to them. If but the farmers are losing �3 | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
million per week on those same animals. If there is something | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
fundamentally wrong when there is that imbalance, and I see no reason | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
why I should be subsidising the profits of the shareholders in that | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
meeting. Investigators say an electrical | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
fault sparked a fire at a Lincolnshire nightclub. People were | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
rescued last night after the fire took hold. More than 35 | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
firefighters were called out to deal with the incident. | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
Still ahead tonight: Lincoln City unveil their new kit | :12:47. | :12:55. | |
as the team prepares for life outside the Football League. | :12:55. | :13:05. | |
:13:05. | :13:39. | ||
And Waddington prepares for the It has been a lovely Day Today, and | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
we have seen some sunshine. That will be the story through the | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
weekend. Bright, sunny at times and mostly dry. There will be at a | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
range of high-pressure keeping the weather settled through the weekend | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
and at the start of next week. Earlier, we have broken cloud. | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
Three this evening, we are looking at broken cloud overnight. There | :14:03. | :14:10. | |
will be some clear spells, the wind will be lighter. Temperatures of 10 | :14:10. | :14:18. | |
to 12 degrees Celsius. The sun will rise tomorrow morning at 4:35am, | :14:18. | :14:28. | |
:14:28. | :14:30. | ||
and set at 9:25pm. Tomorrow, Don is bright, there will be patches of | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
cloud, but they will move around to the cause of the day. There will be | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
spells of sunshine, there is the chance of a light shower, but for | :14:39. | :14:47. | |
most of us it will be dry. A decent amount of sunshine, Variable cloud, | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
and temperatures tomorrow should be higher than today, the breeze will | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
be light and variable, around 16 degrees Celsius on the coast, but | :14:56. | :15:04. | |
17-20 degrees Celsius in Lincoln. Overnight and into Sunday, it will | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
be a cool night, temperatures down to 10 degrees Celsius. But on | :15:08. | :15:17. | |
Sunday, there sunshine continues. For the start of next week, it will | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
turn a milder with south-westerly winds. Temperatures around 23 | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
degrees Celsius on Monday, a risk of showers on Tuesday are still | :15:26. | :15:36. | |
:15:36. | :15:48. | ||
feeling warm. Pubs closing, shops being boarded | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
up, and falling school numbers - we are constantly being told how our | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
rural communities are struggling to survive. But one town in | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
Lincolnshire appears to be bucking the trend. Millions of pounds have | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
been invested in regeneration, and new businesses are opening every | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
month. Vicky Johnson has been to Caistor to see how they are doing | :16:03. | :16:13. | |
:16:13. | :16:15. | ||
it. There is a real sense of renewal and optimism here. These | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
architects and builders have been behind the improvements. I think we | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
did eight projects in total. They claim it has been a big community | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
effort, with counsellors helping them access grant funding. It is | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
nice to have worked on such a success. Along with the district | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
council and all of the teams that have been involved. It has been a | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
complete success story. Much as that success is down to this man, | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
Roy Schofield. He spent more than 10 years lobbying the various | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
bodies for money. For his conversion of a chapel interest | :16:54. | :17:03. | |
projects. The first chunk of money was at the heritage initiative the. | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
That was �1.6 million. Their county council put some money into | :17:07. | :17:14. | |
renovate the cans bed -- the market place. This investment seems to be | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
paying off. A restaurant and bar opens just three weeks ago, also | :17:18. | :17:24. | |
new to the town are an equestrian outfitters and a deli and catering | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
business. It just proves confidence in the people and the town itself, | :17:29. | :17:39. | |
:17:39. | :17:43. | ||
the whole place looks a bit smarter and that is an a way of getting | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
people to come. I have noticed the shops, everything looks prettier. | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
It has smartened up no end over the last couple years full stope they | :17:53. | :18:02. | |
have been lots of changes. Yuri Gagarin's renaissance is an example | :18:02. | :18:09. | |
of what can be achieved when people power is mobilised -- Caistor. | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
There are still a number of facilities that need to be in the | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
centre is, so yes, there are still buildings that we could live cat. | :18:19. | :18:24. | |
Caistor is certainly under going quite a transportation, and there | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
are whispers of yet more investment in the pipeline. So others | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
struggling communities could certainly learn a lesson or two | :18:32. | :18:41. | |
from the people of this town. It is one of the biggest events in | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
the Lincolnshire Callander, with more than 100,000 people expected | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
at the Waddington airshow. But it is not just about funfair rides and | :18:51. | :18:59. | |
fast jets, it is a vital fundraiser a. Philip Norton reports. | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
It has grown to become the largest RAF air show in the country. It | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
brings in around 100,000 visitors every year. It is enormous, the | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
single biggest engagement event in the East Midlands, the biggest | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
thing that the Royal Air Force does in terms of putting itself on show. | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
It is a great opportunity for us to bring people into our lives, and | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
help them understand a bit about the air force. As well as the | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
military aircraft, there is a lot of fun to be had. If there is a | :19:30. | :19:40. | |
:19:40. | :19:41. | ||
fair, stalls, exhibitions and music. They are aerobatic displays from | :19:41. | :19:48. | |
this Thunderbirds and the Red Arrows. They have come all away | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
from Las Vegas. Last time we were here it was the year 2000, we are | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
very excited to be here, if we have a lot of demonstration teams from | :19:57. | :20:04. | |
around the world and we are privileged to be part of this show. | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
The Vulcan will also be flying, always a favourite at Waddington | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
where it was based during the Cold War. It follows a funding campaign | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
to return her to the skies. If the public have been very generous, | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
because the commercial sponsorship is not happening and we are very | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
dependent on the public's generosity. If there is also a | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
serious side. If the event raises thousands of pounds for charity, | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
including the RAF Benevolent Fund, which has helped Jacqui Thompson | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
after her husband Gary was killed. It enabled me to try to live a | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
normal life, knowing that one part of our lives were taking care of, | :20:44. | :20:51. | |
and I would be able to help the girls, and be of use to them. | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
final preparations now being made, and made all the noise and | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
aerobatics it is easy to forget that this is a vital, working | :20:57. | :21:05. | |
station. Around 25 % of our people are currently employed overseas. | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
are currently employed overseas. Hopefully, this week we are focused | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
on the air show here at Waddington. Those operations overseas will | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
continue long after this weekend's extravaganza of. | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
Philip is live at Waddington, probably looking very smug after | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
that trip of a lifetime. What a highlight this weekend? | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
It has been a glorious day, the sun is just going down and the forecast | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
is good. But there have been many aircraft arriving over the last | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
couple of days, including aircraft like this. If this is an Apache | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
attack helicopter. There have been an ever increasing number of | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
enthusiasts, the A 15 has been something to see, they have all | :21:55. | :22:03. | |
been up on ladders trying to get a glimpse of aircraft like this. For | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
and who better to ask what to look at than these enthusiasts? Here are | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
their highlights. Thunderbirds, they are very good, very fast. | :22:13. | :22:20. | |
Thunderbirds, definitely. It is just the aircraft and the skill of | :22:20. | :22:29. | |
the men are flying the aeroplanes. With some forecast for the weekend, | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
it promises to be lovely. The gates open at 8:00am, and the first | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
display is at about 10am. If the organisers are advising people not | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
to arrive before 10am -- a day and. It promises to be a great weekend. | :22:45. | :22:51. | |
The advice, bring a bit of sun cream. | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
Lincoln City has made its first summer signing on the day it | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
revealed its new strip. The club aims to bounce back into the league | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
after relegation last season. But as Simon Clark explains, Lincoln is | :23:00. | :23:10. | |
:23:10. | :23:12. | ||
still coming to terms with demotion. It is a significant departure. | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
Thinner red-and-white stripes, and, at 10am, when the shirts went on | :23:16. | :23:23. | |
sale, there were some he wanted to be first. I think it does look a | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
lot better, it is a modern design and hopefully it will bring success | :23:27. | :23:34. | |
this season. I have a collection of sheds at home, I like it. | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
manager took time out to inspect the kids before naming his first | :23:38. | :23:45. | |
signing of the summer, Jamie take. He scored 19 in all competitions | :23:45. | :23:53. | |
last year, speaking to managers in the conference, I think it is | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
important to have players that have had that little bit of experience. | :24:00. | :24:06. | |
They are going to be the top two or three teams in the conference, size | :24:06. | :24:11. | |
wise. So to come from a small club to Lincoln is a massive move for me. | :24:11. | :24:17. | |
Relegation has cost up to �500,000. They are only tenor players signed | :24:17. | :24:25. | |
on, and training starts next week. Lincoln City head off to their | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
Brave New World. And unique, and a new shirt. But the big question | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
remains - will a player wearing the shirt be holding the Conference | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
trophy in May? This former captain and manager wants to see more | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
activity. He says fans wants to see tangible action to bring confidence | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
ahead of the new campaign. They have to try to get more localised | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
players, and get the community spirit back. That is what has gone | :24:52. | :24:58. | |
missing. And I think the supporters will always be behind them, but | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
they just wants to see some proactive business going on. Link | :25:03. | :25:10. | |
in a certainly hope to leave plenty of these. | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
Three Lincoln City Ladies players were on the pitch as the England | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
women's football team took on New Zealand. Sophie Bradley, Sue Smith | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
and Jess Clarke were all chosen for the squad. New Zealand scored after | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
17 minutes, with England taking an equaliser in the second half and | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
then that winning goal came through 20 minutes later. The final score - | :25:26. | :25:34. | |
England 2, New Zealand 1. Their next game is against Japan on | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
Tuesday. Hull FC have travelled to St Helens | :25:37. | :25:39. | |

They are known for their cunning, but a fox cub in East Yorkshire is | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
having to have daily swimming lessons after getting trapped in a | :26:13. | :26:22. | |

crisp packet. Basil, as she is known, is fitted with a life jacket. | :26:25. | :26:33. | |
She then exercises in water to help rebuild strength in her broken hip. | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
A daily dose of doggy paddle is exactly what the doctor ordered for | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
Basil after she was found dehydrated and injured, trapped in | :26:42. | :26:47. | |

is not to turn her into a pet, but you get her released back into the | :27:08. | :27:14. | |
wild. The quicker we can get her back into the wild, the less chance | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
she has of being humanised, Laura both becoming reliant on people or | :27:18. | :27:23. | |
even being too friendly with them. After all that exercise, a well- | :27:23. | :27:33. | |

A recap of the main headlines: Andy Murray's Wimbledon hopes have come | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
to an end. He was beaten in the semi-finals | :27:43. | :27:48. | |
for the second year in a row. And as the Government urges | :27:48. | :27:52. | |
businesses to employ it more or Britons, agricultural leaders say | :27:52. | :27:56. | |
they would be lost without foreign workers. | :27:56. | :28:01. | |
Tomorrow's weather: at a bright day, stop temperatures of 20 degrees | :28:01. | :28:08. | |
Celsius. Responses are coming in on the | :28:08. | :28:13. | |
subject of migrant and British workers. Steve says that people in | :28:13. | :28:23. | |
this country do not want to work. - - do want to work. My son has | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
applied for 20 apprenticeships. This e-mail says that employers | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
need to be aware that English citizens may feel they are | :28:32. | :28:34. |
