Good evening. They headlines tonight: MPs tell the Prime | :00:08. | :00:16. | |
Minister the police should have been tougher on rioters. Why have | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
our police been disbursing these youths so they can riots in other | :00:22. | :00:32. | |
areas? Why the bus operators are fessing -- are facing the toughest | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
test of a generation? Secret documents relieve -- revealed | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
details of strange sightings in Yorkshire. Workers make this deadly | :00:43. | :00:50. | |
discovery in a shipment. There has been a fair bet of cloud, will it | :00:50. | :01:00. | |
:01:00. | :01:05. | ||
be any better for the weekend? -- appear remote. -- a fair amount. | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
MPs from Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire have demanded a much | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
tougher police response in future riots. Officers have been sent to | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
assist other forces, and politicians say the police must be | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
given more power to tackle criminal gangs. Parliament was recalled | :01:24. | :01:30. | |
today to discuss the violence, with some of our MPs criticised for | :01:30. | :01:38. | |
choosing not to attend. Thankfully, are a career has been spared the | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
violent scenes which blighted many English cities this week. But that | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
did not prevent a number of MPs from East Yorkshire and Lincoln | :01:46. | :01:54. | |
having their say. Why have our police been dispersing these uses | :01:54. | :02:02. | |
so they can riot in other facilities? -- these children. This | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
veteran conservative that suggested the rioters should be rounded up | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
and held at Wembley Stadium. It was clear many MPs wanted a much | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
tougher approach. I do not think the ordinary policeman has got | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
softer. But the management of the police has done, and I am afraid if | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
they are not careful, this will happen again. There were a few | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
notable absentees from Parliament. Alan Johnson could not get back | :02:37. | :02:45. | |
from his holidays in time. Austin Mitchell spoke to us from | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
California. He said it would not be a good use of taxpayers' money to | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
fly back to London. I think it is because of a government economic | :02:57. | :03:04. | |
policy. I have a contribution I want to make, but I will not sit | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
there and listen to various Cabinet members and then squeeze my eight. | :03:10. | :03:20. | |
:03:20. | :03:21. | ||
Into it. There is no reason why I should be there. -- squeeze into it. | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
He should find out what is going on. I will not have a go at him, but if | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
I was in he might -- if I was in his position I would be back at | :03:31. | :03:39. | |
Westminster straight away. another corner of Grimsby, politics | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
was not on the agenda at all stop these young people said they were | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
shocked by the images. Respect in society has gone down for a while, | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
people do not care about other people, everybody is fighting for | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
themselves. It is a shame, because I do not think anyone in my eight | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
friends would do that. Despite not basing this type of trouble, | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
Humberside police have revealed bespoke to a number of people | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
staring up violence on social networking sites. -- starring up | :04:17. | :04:27. | |
:04:27. | :04:29. | ||
violence. -- stirring. They have warned that arrests could follow. | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
Diana Johnson is a Hull North MP. I spoke to her and asked her whether | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
it was worth recalling Parliament. I think it was. It is an | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
opportunity for the prime minister to step out what takes -- set out | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
what steps he has taken. I was concerned the Prime Minister was | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
not listening to questions about the police cuts. That was | :04:52. | :05:02. | |
:05:02. | :05:03. | ||
disappointing. You spoke about police cuts, at the end of the day, | :05:03. | :05:09. | |
people what the police to be tougher with yobs. -- people want | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
the police. I do not agree with you, Peter. People what the police on | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
the streets. I think their concerns are still there, people are saying | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
to me on a daily basis the 20 % cuts to the police are something | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
they do not want. What do you think went wrong? I do not think there is | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
a simple answer to this. Clearly there was criminality, looting, | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
murderers, so that is all criminal offences. There is other defences. | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
There is also the issue of society, we need to have a long hard think | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
about it, consider what happened, do not rush into making knee-jerk | :05:51. | :05:59. | |
reactions. What are at the other issues? Some areas have not had any | :05:59. | :06:07. | |
problems. -- what are the other issues? Thankfully in sombre side - | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
- in Humberside there has been no problem, but we need to consider | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
issues like what we are saying to young people about their future, | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
what jobs they will have, we must address that. We must think about | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
the benefits system, what we say about encouraging people into work. | :06:25. | :06:32. | |
It is not simple. You are implying it is about people who do not have | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
jobs, some of these people do have jobs. Absolutely. You can see there | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
was a primary-school teacher, someone who has just signed up for | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
the army, an undergraduate, and that is why there is no simple | :06:47. | :06:55. | |
cause for what is going on. There is a whole range of things we | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
should consider. We need to think about what we expect of young | :06:59. | :07:07. | |
people. Diana Johnson, thank you. Then a moment, a waste of money? | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
Boston businesses give their verdict on the group that may pay | :07:11. | :07:18. | |
to promote the town centre. The bus industry is facing the greatest | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
financial challenge for a generation according to a report | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
out today by the Commons transport committee. It says that cuts to | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
rural bus services I damaging access to vital bus services for | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
the young, old and disabled. It warns that even deeper cuts are | :07:35. | :07:43. | |
available -- are possible next year. Bus services have been hit hard by | :07:43. | :07:53. | |
:07:53. | :07:55. | ||
cuts. It is rural areas that are seen services disappear. 6pm, the | :07:55. | :08:03. | |
buses get less and less. Old people are suffering. Jim Taylor has seen | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
the largest number of operators going bust in the last six months | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
than he has ever seen before. He had to cancel services from his own | :08:13. | :08:21. | |
company. We have to cancel services, we are a business. If there is no | :08:21. | :08:28. | |
money from the councils, supporting services in a rural area, | :08:28. | :08:36. | |
unfortunately, they will call by the wayside. It is a reflection of | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
the findings from the transport committee. They say the cuts are | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
damaging the ability of the young, old and disabled to access vital | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
services, and further cuts could make things worse. That is a worry | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
for people like this woman. completely and utterly rely on the | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
bus services, so when I heard a rumour they were going to cut it, I | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
was quite upset about it, because I need this bus service. There are no | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
plans for further cuts, but it is easy to feel the concern in the | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
town. I think there are other cuts that could be made, but cutting the | :09:18. | :09:26. | |
bus service should not happen. government says it is not then, it | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
is local councils that are making the cuts. The government has made | :09:31. | :09:41. | |
:09:41. | :09:47. | ||
no cuts, so we must look at councils. The debate will continue. | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
Chris Briggs is the head of transport in Lincolnshire County | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
Council. I spoke to him and asked him whether he agreed with the cuts | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
being accounts will matter. It is correct, the government supplied | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
the money and the county council makes the decision. The county | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
council has had to make those tough decisions, but having less money | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
means having less services. The decision was to protect other | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
frontline services which are important to people, and therefore | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
�1 million was removed from the amount of money used this to | :10:26. | :10:34. | |
subsidise bus services. I think you will find the county council has | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
done all of this, senior management level was reduced by around one- | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
third at the end of last year. about all furred, up a service used | :10:43. | :10:53. | |
:10:53. | :10:59. | ||
to run on two days, and it had been cut to one day. -- Alford. That | :10:59. | :11:08. | |
sounds like coppers. It does, but we need to make the savings. | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
three years' time, will there be less bus services in Lincolnshire? | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
I hope not, because the county council made the decision to make | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
the savings at the front end, so hopefully there will be no further | :11:21. | :11:26. | |
cuts if the government funding remains as promised, and we will do | :11:26. | :11:36. | |
:11:36. | :11:39. | ||
If you have got a view on this one then throw it open. The best way of | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
providing bus services in rural areas, should do routes be | :11:43. | :11:53. | |
:11:53. | :12:06. | ||
We will have some of your stories. Some more news now, the company | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
wanting to build a new power- station in North Lincolnshire, | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
creating hundreds of jobs, says there will not proceed with the | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
plans and silicates reassurances from the Government. The plant was | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
given the go-ahead yesterday, but says it will not progress unless | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
the Government gives guarantees of future subsidy levels. | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
Plan is for a tidal power device in the Humber to generate electricity | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
have been approved by Parliament. The device is thought to be the | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
first in its kind in the country. It will use the tidal power of | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
their estuary to create electricity to power the D in Hull. It is | :12:43. | :12:51. | |
expected to be deployed in autumn. -- The Deep in Hull. We'd talked | :12:51. | :13:01. | |
about the controversy surrounding this Hull bed -- BID of which | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
provides help for companies by charging them. | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
Not everybody wants is we have heard from companies in Boston who | :13:07. | :13:13. | |
are not happy with their BID organisation. | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
This picture has been paying the compulsory levy to Boston Business | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
improvement District, or BID, 43 years. Like the majority of | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
businesses in Boston he did not join -- board for this. When the | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
form came through the post, I have felt it was junk mail and I ignored | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
it. Maybe we were the only people who didn't know it, but because we | :13:39. | :13:46. | |
did that it felt that was a vote of yes. End Boston, beds are entitled | :13:46. | :13:56. | |
:13:56. | :13:56. | ||
to take 1% of the value. -- BIDs. For a small shop, annual fee is one | :13:56. | :14:02. | |
on -- a couple of hundred pounds. This shopkeeper believes the | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
organisation is a waste of money. And at the moment, I think the BID | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
is operating the way they always have operated, which is just too | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
write things down on paper, give us a list of what they are proposing | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
to do, and never actually doing it. Boston BID says its achievement is | :14:22. | :14:28. | |
to create a safer shopping area and more welcoming town. That has | :14:28. | :14:35. | |
benefited is is is directly area. A number of town ranges are claimed | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
to have greatly improved the shopping area. This shop owner says | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
there BID is worth every penny of the compulsory levy. It is all to | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
promote and enhance the town of Boston. We do a lot of things | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
behind the scene which people do not realise. It is not possible for | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
us to do something for every single business, what we try to do is do | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
something that is good for Boston. That will then have a knock-on | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
effect for the businesses in Boston. It will be another two years before | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
businesses can vote on whether they want to keep the Business | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
improvement District, until then opinions are likely to remain | :15:14. | :15:24. | |
:15:24. | :15:24. | ||
divided. If you have got a local bed, how does it work? Do you think | :15:24. | :15:30. | |
you get value for money, get in touch. | :15:30. | :15:37. | |
It time is 6:45pm. Still ahead: the striker spotted on YouTube but who | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
is hoping to help Lincoln City bounce back into the Football | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
League. The deadly stowaways discovered by | :15:44. | :15:54. | |

Do not forget if you have got a photograph you are proud of, send | :15:57. | :16:03. | |
it in. Tonight's is taken by Paul McCafferty. It is of Rippingale in | :16:03. | :16:10. | |
Lincolnshire. Thank you for that. Goody evening, Lisa. What of | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
confidence for you say that Peter has been very cruel to Lisa this | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
week but is she not giving him back as much as she gets, good on you, | :16:19. | :16:28. | |
Karel! I do not know what they are It has been a mild day to day, we | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
have reached 22 degrees are but we are set for some cloud but there | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
will be some brightness. If you look at the pressure charts for | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
tomorrow, we have a weather front out in the Atlantic which is | :16:40. | :16:47. | |
heading our way. It stars to Brighton and then clouds over. | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
Today, you can see on the satellite picture that there is some cloud. | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
There have been some heavy showers. Overnight we are going to see some | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
patchy light rain and drizzle. That will tend to die away by the end of | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
the night. It will be a mild night with temperatures of 13 or 14 | :17:08. | :17:16. | |
degrees. Looking at the Sun, it rises in the morning and sex at | :17:16. | :17:26. | |
8:37pm. Their next -- sects in the evening. Tomorrow will not be too | :17:26. | :17:33. | |
cold, there will be a fair amount of cloud. As we go through the day | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
we see the damp mist clearing and the Clyde will start to break we | :17:36. | :17:44. | |
will see some brighter spells. The cloud will be thickening from the | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
West. Temperatures tomorrow are run roundabout 19 degrees as a high. It | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
may be 21 in Boston. Rain to come on Friday evening, there will be | :17:56. | :18:00. | |
further rain on Saturday morning. Once that clears away the rest of | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
the weekend is brighter. There will be a scattering of showers but many | :18:05. | :18:15. | |

Turn the sound down, it looks like Lincoln City are preparing to kick | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
off the new season when they travelled to size port. Fans will | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
hope for a strong start to the season as they try to bounce back | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
into the Football League. BBC Lincolnshire's sports editor has | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
been assessing their chances. The last three months have been | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
pretty traumatic for Lincoln City supporters have they has replayed | :18:44. | :18:51. | |
the goals that relegated them again and again. It seems to be, looking | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
at other football teams, the longer you're out the harder it is to get | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
back in. They have to make every effort to get back. Said the has | :19:01. | :19:09. | |
had to cut its budget. The fault of a no confidence vote. In has been a | :19:09. | :19:16. | |
difficult last few months, lot of things going on. The relegation to | :19:16. | :19:22. | |
non-league, lots of cost cutting is to be made. A hopefully we have | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
come through all of that and we are looking forward to starting the new | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
season. Among the news seized -- faces, striker Bradley Baraclough | :19:29. | :19:37. | |
who posted a video of his goals at college in America on YouTube. | :19:37. | :19:43. | |
There are other new starters as well. There are any up -- lot of | :19:43. | :19:50. | |
New Lad. We're not thinking about last season. When you come into the | :19:50. | :19:57. | |
next season, it does not feel like that. They hope the new squad can | :19:57. | :20:01. | |
help the squad bounce-back. It will take time to gel but a lot will | :20:01. | :20:08. | |
depend on injuries. We have got a small squad. If we pick up to work | :20:08. | :20:16. | |
he injuries to key players it will not help us, but we stay injury- | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
free, who knows. Where in they were last relegated the bounced back at | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
the first time. They will hope that his team does the same this time | :20:24. | :20:33. | |
around. Thank you, good luck to them. The | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
Court of Hull Kingston Rovers has broken his silence about leaving | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
the club. Justin Morgan says it was mutual. Today he revealed he could | :20:42. | :20:48. | |
be heading home to Australia. Still in charge but not for much | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
longer, Justin Morgan addressed the issues of his departure for the | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
first time since it became known. We had a good chat on Thursday | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
about a few different things. It was not anything that came out of | :21:02. | :21:08. | |
the blue. It is something that has been on topic for a little while. | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
Despite the timing, Rovers are still have a chance of making this | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
season's play-off. He was the man who ended many years with promotion | :21:17. | :21:23. | |
to Super League in 2007. Since then he has moved them into two plea of | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
finishes and lead them into a Challenge Cup semi-final, no wonder | :21:26. | :21:32. | |
fans are sad to see him go. Just great for for what he has done for | :21:32. | :21:38. | |
us. I think Justin Morgan has done brilliant for Rovers. It is a shame | :21:38. | :21:43. | |
really, I think he will be well mist. He had the flair and optimism. | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
I think he passed it on to the team. More can revealed today that he may | :21:48. | :21:51. | |
find work home in Australia up with interest from clubs there. Have | :21:51. | :21:56. | |
often got dialogue with them anyway, so now that might situation has | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
become a little bit clearer, we have spoken a little bit more on a | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
professional level, I have spoken to a couple of clubs at the moment. | :22:05. | :22:10. | |
We will see if anything happens. More akin leaves with the fans' | :22:10. | :22:17. | |
best wishes as they wait to see who will be returned as their new coach. | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
Government files released today show a series of UFO sightings in | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire. Some of the incidence bait -- date | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
back more than 30 years. The files, from the Ministry of Defence, have | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
been stored in the national archives. Our reporter has been | :22:34. | :22:41. | |
taking a look. It is the early hours of October | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
5th, 1996. Reports comment of a red and green rotating light over | :22:44. | :22:50. | |
Boston. Bright, no noise, spotted by police, members of the public, | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
even the crew of a ship in the North Sea. It is just one of many | :22:55. | :23:00. | |
unexplained sightings of UFOs over East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
released today by the Ministry of Defence. The have received | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
thousands of support -- reports since they end of the Second World | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
War. When people hear the truth, which is that there has never been | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
the resources for staff to investigate the. Nobody will | :23:16. | :23:22. | |
believe that. The police a feature in many of the documents, in one | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
incidents in 20031 witness even described how the Humberside police | :23:27. | :23:33. | |
helicopter was being observed by a bright light over Hull. One a | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
police officer runs a website which locks sightings. I had what one | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
case where I have 70 police officers from six different vantage | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
points geographically all watching the same object, why does that not | :23:46. | :23:54. | |
get on the news? Perhaps one of the stranger sightings is that of a | :23:54. | :24:00. | |
flying cigar spotted by five people over Hull and Scunthorpe in 1976. | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
With more recent incidents in Lincolnshire, including wind | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
turbines sector have been hit by UFOs, there is plenty of people who | :24:09. | :24:19. | |
think theory is something out there. Thank you. Imagine being at work | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
and suddenly seeing this just a few inches from your face. That | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
happened to one Engineer in North Lincolnshire. He was dismantling a | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
jet engine that was shipped in from America up when he got a rather | :24:30. | :24:36. | |
nasty surprise. It has razor-sharp fangs and its | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
venom can kill. Imagine their shock when engineers discovered this a | :24:41. | :24:47. | |
Black Widow spider in the workshop in North Lincolnshire. What of our | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
engineers was working underneath their engine, one of the guys | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
noticed that the spider had dropped out of a box and reset itself on | :24:55. | :25:01. | |
its back legs, ready to pounce. Match eels was dismantling a jet | :25:01. | :25:07. | |
engine at TC Power in Barton when it scuttled towards him. It's was | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
moving quite quickly back towards its web. I must have caught the Web | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
so it came back out again. It was just a little spider. When I got | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
out and the guys checked what it was, it dawned on me what it could | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
have done. So far they engineers have found three of these spiders, | :25:27. | :25:32. | |
to our meals which are quite tiny, but they have also found this one, | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
female. She is quite a whopper, imagine having that just a couple | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
of inches from your face. In the workshop they are still on spider | :25:41. | :25:48. | |
watch. As you can see here, there is a lot of webs in the framework. | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
With 3080 -- tiny camera up they filmed another Black Widow, still | :25:52. | :26:00. | |
hidden away. We find evidence that the spiders have been in there. | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
found another female. They are still creeping around their engine? | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
Engineers are feeding the spiders flies until they are moved into a | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
new home. For now, they are were -- one workplace hazard you will not | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
find in the Health and Safety Manual. | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
Do not forget if you have got a story we should know about then | :26:23. | :26:29. | |
send me an e-mail. It is now at four minutes until | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
seven. Police have made hundreds more arrests following riots across | :26:34. | :26:40. | |
England. Their tactics have been criticised. An MP claims that | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
police should have rounded up the rioters and put them in Wembley | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
Stadium. Tomorrow's weather is cloudy with damp start. It will be | :26:49. | :26:59. | |
brighter in the afternoon. Top Response coming in on the subject | :26:59. | :27:05. | |
of a rural bus routes. This on Twitter from Sharon. Rather than | :27:05. | :27:11. | |
big bosses, why not put many buses on. Petrol courses -- costs are | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
lower. If you want to go to Lincoln by bus from Boston you are fine, | :27:16. | :27:23. | |
anywhere else is impossible. Says says it if you need to do about bus | :27:23. | :27:28. | |
services for students getting to college, many students can no | :27:28. | :27:32. |
