:00:14. > :00:24.The Deputy Prime Minister says people who don't believe in wind
:00:24. > :00:24.
:00:25. > :00:28.power to generate electricity are Luddites. He's been in Grimsby to
:00:28. > :00:34.open a new wind farm off the Lincolnshire coast, as well as
:00:34. > :00:37.announcing millions of pounds of investment for the industry. He said
:00:37. > :00:41.Britain is a world leader in renewable energy despite having no
:00:41. > :00:47.wind turbine factories yet - even though two are planned for this
:00:47. > :00:50.area. Here's our business correspondent, Paul Murphy.
:00:50. > :00:54.This afternoon Mr Clegg got an overview of an industry he hopes the
:00:54. > :01:00.UK can become a world leader in. He wants it to be bigger and the
:01:00. > :01:05.country to benefit. When you are in a global race, if you are in pole
:01:05. > :01:12.position, you need to put your foot on the accelerator and increase your
:01:12. > :01:17.lead. He had come to Grimsby to formally opened a new wind farm, it
:01:17. > :01:20.is generating enough power for 200,000 homes. But it is a source of
:01:20. > :01:24.frustration to the government that these giant machines are actually
:01:24. > :01:31.made abroad, with subsidy UK taxpayers. Ministers want Great
:01:31. > :01:36.Britain to get a biggest slice of the action. Strategy will require
:01:36. > :01:43.new turbines, a supply plan that will ensure more of the work is
:01:43. > :01:53.done. We are publishing more incentives for foreign manufacturers
:01:53. > :01:53.
:01:53. > :01:57.to do their manufacture in Britain. Mr Clegg said he was working flat
:01:57. > :02:00.out. It is three years since its Siemens expressed an interest in
:02:00. > :02:05.building a factory here but the company has been nervous about how
:02:05. > :02:09.much UK Government support there would be. The proposed government
:02:09. > :02:15.measures include a �20 million fund to offered specialist support to
:02:15. > :02:20.renewable energy companies. �46 million to encourage invention and
:02:20. > :02:23.innovation in the area of renewable energy. And a requirement that
:02:23. > :02:29.larger companies getting involved in offshore wind make a commitment to
:02:29. > :02:34.the UK supply chain. What is Centrica's view of where the
:02:34. > :02:37.government is sat at the moment in terms of support for your industry?
:02:37. > :02:42.We welcome the industrial strategy announced today. There is a lot of
:02:42. > :02:48.work that needs to be done for us to look at it and understand it fully.
:02:48. > :02:53.So that we can make sure we have the certainty required in order to start
:02:53. > :02:57.a large infrastructure projects. that is what you call a cautious
:02:57. > :03:00.welcome. This industry will want to think hard on the detail of the
:03:00. > :03:08.government support package before making too many more big investment
:03:08. > :03:12.decisions. I met Nick Clegg on his trip to
:03:13. > :03:16.Grimsby earlier today. This is good news. You want to be a world leader
:03:16. > :03:21.in green energy. Why do we not have one factory building turbines in
:03:21. > :03:30.this country? One of the things we say, we are setting out our offshore
:03:30. > :03:37.strategy. When, in future, bidders want to install new wind farms, they
:03:37. > :03:42.must show how they will help the UK supply chain. Can you force them to
:03:42. > :03:50.employ local people? Now. We need to ask them, what is your commitment to
:03:50. > :03:56.that local supply chain. -- now, we cannot. Why hasn't Siemens committed
:03:56. > :04:05.to coming to Humber? I hope they will. You hope or do you think they
:04:05. > :04:11.will? It is their decision. We are doing everything we can to make sure
:04:11. > :04:15.that Siemens project goes ahead. We need to work with Siemens to make
:04:15. > :04:19.sure that when they make that decision, it is a decision taken by
:04:19. > :04:23.the Siemens board in Germany, they are confident of spending millions
:04:23. > :04:28.of pounds locally here. I think it will be money well spent. I hope
:04:28. > :04:33.they will take that decision soon. It is reported that they want more
:04:33. > :04:38.clarity from the government. Do you know what that is? Tell a lot of
:04:38. > :04:45.these big deals are very complex in their detail. We are working with
:04:45. > :04:48.Siemens a day in, day out. We are giving them answers. We are giving
:04:48. > :04:53.them reassurance. At the end of the day, Siemens is a big international
:04:53. > :04:59.company. They must make that decision, comparing a investment
:05:00. > :05:04.here to other investments in other parts of the world. I hope they make
:05:04. > :05:09.the investment here. I hope it will be a yes. We are working flat out to
:05:09. > :05:13.make sure it is a yes and I am very committed to this. I have had
:05:13. > :05:16.several conversations with Siemens, I have visited them locally on
:05:16. > :05:24.several occasions, I have visited them in Germany, we are doing
:05:24. > :05:28.everything we can. You have been a great ambassador of turbines. There
:05:28. > :05:35.is still a lot of people who are very sceptical in this country.
:05:35. > :05:38.There is still a big job to do. You call them Luddites, don't you?
:05:38. > :05:42.every new technology, you get people saying, we do not want the new, we
:05:42. > :05:46.want to stick to what we know. I think we have to move with the
:05:47. > :05:52.times. There is a global race going on about who can employ more people,
:05:52. > :05:57.get more investment in the new green technologies. It so happens that I
:05:57. > :06:01.believe the new British economy, part of it, will be a boom in green
:06:01. > :06:07.renewable technologies. It is already a sector growing at 5% per
:06:07. > :06:10.year, more than other parts of the economy. Offshore industry could be
:06:10. > :06:16.worth �7 billion to our economy by the end of the decade, employing
:06:16. > :06:22.30,000 people. I want to see jobs created for people locally. That is
:06:22. > :06:26.why I am dedicated to it. Thank you. That was earlier this afternoon. Is
:06:26. > :06:33.the Government right to say it's a world leader on green energy? And
:06:33. > :06:43.are the people who oppose wind farms Luddites? Give us your thoughts on
:06:43. > :06:59.
:06:59. > :07:05.whether Siemens will come to our In a moment: Looking for wildlife in
:07:05. > :07:08.unusual places - the hidden secrets of our ponds and drains.
:07:08. > :07:11.No deaths in house fires in 12 months. A proud record for
:07:11. > :07:16.Humberside firefighters, who say it is because their message on smoke
:07:16. > :07:19.alarms and fire safety is getting through. But they are warning people
:07:19. > :07:27.not to be complacent and have highlighted how even an unattended
:07:27. > :07:31.toaster can cause devastation. Amy Cole reports.
:07:31. > :07:34.This is the result of a piece of toast that got stuck in a toaster
:07:34. > :07:44.and carried on burning. The kitchen is completely ruined - around
:07:44. > :07:45.
:07:45. > :07:49.�50,000 pounds worth of damage caused. If we had left that door
:07:49. > :07:52.open, the living room would be in the same state. The actions of the
:07:52. > :07:55.Mawston family have been praised by Humberside Fire and Rescue service.
:07:55. > :08:02.It says they responded in a textbook manner under very challenging
:08:02. > :08:05.circumstances. It took us 15 minutes to get here and get it under
:08:05. > :08:10.control. That was helped by the fact that the family knew exactly what to
:08:10. > :08:15.do in the event of a fire. They close the kitchen door. Dad did not
:08:15. > :08:24.attempt to fight the fire. It is those types of behaviour that helped
:08:24. > :08:27.us keep fire deaths recently down to zero. Humberside Fire and Rescue
:08:28. > :08:34.service says there has been no deaths from fire in the last 12
:08:35. > :08:40.months. In the school year before 2012, there were six deaths. The
:08:40. > :08:50.family said they feel lucky to be alive. Feeling a bit down, but
:08:50. > :08:53.
:08:53. > :08:58.relieved as well at the fact that all the family got out. Marvellous
:08:58. > :09:02.response, my older children who were upstairs who managed to get the
:09:02. > :09:06.younger sister out. For the Mawstons, it could be up to three
:09:06. > :09:10.months before they can move back in - a stark reminder of how an
:09:10. > :09:13.everyday act can suddenly get out of control. Amy Cole, BBC Look North,
:09:13. > :09:17.Hull. Parking charges are making large
:09:17. > :09:20.profits for some of our local authorities. According to the latest
:09:20. > :09:23.research, a surplus of more than �500 million has been made
:09:23. > :09:28.nationally. The three councils making the most profit from parking
:09:28. > :09:33.in this area include Lincoln City Council. They made a surplus of just
:09:33. > :09:36.over �2.4 million last year. Hull City Council made just over �1.6
:09:36. > :09:44.million and East Lindsey District Council generated �1.4 million from
:09:44. > :09:47.parking charges. The owners of a piece of land in the

:10:12. > :10:15.Passenger numbers at East Midlands Airport dropped to four million in
:10:15. > :10:20.the year to March, but it's claimed they're recovering this summer. The
:10:20. > :10:23.fall of more than six per cent is being put down to the closure of the
:10:23. > :10:27.airline BMI Baby last September. The airport says new routes from other
:10:27. > :10:29.airlines and a new base for Monarch should help offset the drop by the

:10:33. > :10:36.people celebrate the county's rich culture and heritage. However,
:10:36. > :10:42.according to one survey only a handful of public buildings have
:10:42. > :10:46.flown the traditional white rose flag. Campaigners are using the day
:10:46. > :10:53.to call for Yorkshire to be given its own parliament to strengthen the
:10:53. > :10:56.county's identity. More from our political editor, Tim Iredale.
:10:56. > :11:00.The traditional white rose flag has been flying above East Riding's
:11:00. > :11:03.County Hall today. It was here in Beverley where the first Yorkshire
:11:03. > :11:13.Day was celebrated in 1975, as a protest against the redrawing of
:11:13. > :11:13.
:11:13. > :11:18.England's county boundaries the previous year. We think it is very
:11:18. > :11:23.important, we are very proud of Yorkshire and I think many people
:11:23. > :11:27.call it God 's country. It is a celebration of all things Yorkshire,
:11:28. > :11:30.and we are proud of that heritage. However, a survey by a group called
:11:31. > :11:34.the Yorkshire Devolution Movement suggests that East Riding is in a
:11:34. > :11:39.minority and only a handful of local authorities will fly the Yorkshire
:11:39. > :11:42.flag today. The Yorkshire der evolution movement once more power
:11:42. > :11:47.devolved away from Westminster. There is a lot of discussion about
:11:47. > :11:53.this north, south divide. With the Yorkshire did evolution, we would
:11:53. > :12:03.want a similar structure to what we have in Wales at the moment, a
:12:03. > :12:06.
:12:06. > :12:09.directly assembly. Yorkshire and the Humber, which has now elected
:12:09. > :12:16.regional government, has a population of 5.3 million, the same
:12:16. > :12:21.number as Scotland, which has its own parliament. So, how do voters in
:12:21. > :12:24.Beverley feel about the idea of a Yorkshire Parliament? I think it
:12:24. > :12:30.should have its own parliament to promote Yorkshire itself as far as
:12:30. > :12:33.the guest of the UK is concerned. Yes. It is a big county. It is the
:12:33. > :12:37.biggest county in the whole country, so on that hand, if you
:12:37. > :12:45.think of it like that, we should have a say that goes on in the
:12:45. > :12:50.biggest county will stop now, we should not have our own parliament.
:12:50. > :12:53.Leave it at that. Proposals for regional government bit the dust
:12:53. > :12:56.under the last Labour government, but with Scotland due to hold a

:13:13. > :13:17.of seeing a Yorkshire Parliament? This comes up every now and again.
:13:17. > :13:21.The argument is, a disproportionate amount of taxpayers money is spent
:13:21. > :13:24.on the south-east of England and having home rule for Yorkshire may
:13:24. > :13:28.retest the balance. It still throws up a whole new set of questions. Do
:13:28. > :13:35.voters want a whole new set of politicians in the current climate?
:13:35. > :13:40.Where would the Parliament or assembly be based? Leeds, Sheffield,
:13:40. > :13:46.Hull? Who would be in charge of it? Do you fancy that job? Prime
:13:46. > :13:56.Minister of Yorkshire? Should Yorkshire get more power to make its
:13:56. > :13:57.
:13:57. > :14:07.own decisions, a parliament for Yorkshire? Please contact us and
