:00:11. > :00:15.cost at our rural pumps but the Government has no plans to give
:00:15. > :00:20.drivers here a discount on fuel. People's wages are not going up but
:00:20. > :00:25.yet, fuel is getting higher and higher. The supermarkets knock off a
:00:25. > :00:29.penny or two but a penny or two is no good. The head of the ambulance
:00:29. > :00:32.service which covers Lincolnshire leaves his job. As figures show a
:00:32. > :00:36.fall in national breast-feeding rates, mums in Hull are targeted as
:00:36. > :00:41.part of a new campaign. I once breast-fed in a disabled toilet and
:00:41. > :00:45.I sat there, thinking, "What am I doing? I wouldn't eat my lunch in a

:01:13. > :01:16.because of the cost of filling up their cars. It comes as the
:01:16. > :01:23.Government announces it will look at extending a fuel discount to remote
:01:23. > :01:26.parts of the UK including Cornwall and Cumbria. Pumps in East Yorkshire
:01:26. > :01:29.and Lincolnshire have been left out of the plans, leaving one of our
:01:29. > :01:31.councils saying more pressure is needed to force the Government to

:02:14. > :02:20.good. The owner of the village garage says rural petrol stations
:02:20. > :02:25.are fighting for their very survival. It is very tough because
:02:25. > :02:30.the supermarkets give it away. We cannot compete with them. More and
:02:30. > :02:34.more verbal garages close down. quick glance at an internet
:02:34. > :02:38.comparison site reveals the lowest price of a litre of unleaded is just
:02:38. > :02:40.under 1.31 in Lincoln 1.34 in Hull but in rural Horncastle the lowest
:02:40. > :02:49.price is almost 1.40. The Government is now considering reducing fuel
:02:49. > :02:53.duty by 5p a litre in remote rural areas. Motorists in the Scottish
:02:53. > :03:02.Islands and the Scilly Isles have already seen a reduction due the
:03:02. > :03:07.cost of transporting petrol and diesel to those areas. But despite
:03:07. > :03:10.being one of England's biggest counties, Lincolnshire isn't on the
:03:10. > :03:15.government short list and that has prompted an angry response from
:03:15. > :03:20.local councillors. I am disappointing and I am standing up
:03:20. > :03:26.for Lincolnshire on this issue. we look at the occupations,
:03:26. > :03:32.Lincolnshire has 720,000 residents, North Yorkshire has something in the
:03:32. > :03:40.region of 600 and Herefordshire has 140,000. So, where is the fairness
:03:40. > :03:44.in that. Ministers say they are beginning to gather evidence for
:03:44. > :03:49.reducing fuel duty in some areas but in the short term, it seems there is
:03:49. > :03:53.little hope for a price cut in Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire.
:03:53. > :04:02.Edmund King is the President of the AA. I asked him whether a fuel
:04:02. > :04:06.discount for rural areas was a good idea. I think any help for those in
:04:06. > :04:10.isolated areas that depend on their car is useful but it looks like it
:04:10. > :04:14.is a bit of a postcode lottery because what areas are remote and
:04:14. > :04:21.what aren't? I certainly know there are a lot of people in Lincolnshire
:04:21. > :04:26.who are very concerned that they are not being included. Should they be
:04:26. > :04:30.included? It doesn't get much more brutal than Lincolnshire. Since this
:04:30. > :04:38.announcement, we have been inundated Pete with calls from people from
:04:38. > :04:42.Sussex, -- Suffolk, Lincolnshire, Dorset, from people who save their
:04:42. > :04:47.fuel is very expensive, there are no buses and they depend on their car.
:04:47. > :04:54.It is a convex thing for the government to look at and ultimately
:04:54. > :05:00.the EC. -- a complex thing. Do you think this actual policy that the --
:05:00. > :05:04.wants to be pushed through is workable which Mark your macro when
:05:04. > :05:10.it was introduced in the Scottish Isles, the 5p litre discount was
:05:10. > :05:15.introduced at the same time that fuel went up 7p so no one actually
:05:15. > :05:25.noticed it. I think it is a bit of window dressing. What we really need
:05:25. > :05:28.is fuel price transparency and feel rices being reduced. A lot of people
:05:28. > :05:33.in Lincolnshire will think this is a good idea, what is your message to
:05:33. > :05:38.them rushed and Mark the message to people in Lincolnshire is that
:05:38. > :05:43.really, garages in Lincolnshire have two proved to the Treasury that they
:05:43. > :05:48.are in the same situation as those in the moat areas of Wales and Devon
:05:48. > :05:54.and other areas to actually make the case. I believe many in Lincolnshire
:05:54. > :05:59.can make a good case in the others get a 5p cut.
:05:59. > :06:04.Do you live in a rural area and find the price of fuel too expensive? Or
:06:04. > :06:14.do you live in a city and think it's unfair for rural areas to expect to

:06:41. > :06:45.The head of the ambulance service that covers Lincolnshire has left
:06:45. > :06:50.his job. It's two months since the Home Secretary ordered a review into
:06:50. > :06:57.Phil Milligan's plans to reorganise ambulance services in Lincolnshire.
:06:57. > :07:00.Emma Massey is in our newsroom, what is the background to his departure.
:07:00. > :07:02.Well, East Midlands Ambulance Service provides care for 4.8
:07:02. > :07:05.million people including those in Lincolnshire but this is an
:07:05. > :07:10.organisation that has been beset with problems. It's failed to meet
:07:10. > :07:12.its response time targets for three years running. Also, the plans it
:07:12. > :07:15.had designed to improve those responses have been heavily
:07:15. > :07:20.criticised. In June, the Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt ordered a
:07:20. > :07:24.review into that re-organisation. And now EMAS has lost it's chief
:07:24. > :07:28.executive who we understand has stood down with immediate effect.
:07:28. > :07:34.Phil Milligan had been with the NHS for 30 years and in a statement said
:07:34. > :07:38.he is now looking forward to spending more time with his family.
:07:38. > :07:42.An interim chief executive has been appointed.
:07:42. > :07:46.So, Emma, has there been any reaction to this announcement?
:07:46. > :07:49.The Ambulance Service itself has only issued a statement in which it
:07:49. > :07:53.thanked Mr Milligan for his service but offered no explanation as to why
:07:53. > :07:56.he has left. However, we have spoken to some of Lincolnshire MPs. Martin
:07:56. > :08:00.Vickers, the MP for Cleethorpes said, "this comes as no real
:08:00. > :08:03.surprise. The Trust has had more than its fair share of problems
:08:03. > :08:05.recently." The Brigg and Goole MP Andrew Percy said, "the question
:08:05. > :08:10.needs to be asked about whether North and North East Lincolnshire
:08:10. > :08:17.should be served by EMAS or by the Yorkshire Ambulance Service." He
:08:17. > :08:21.feels the area covered by EMAS is simply too big.
:08:21. > :08:27.A Hull woman has denied killing her four-week-old daughter. Natasha
:08:27. > :08:32.Salten pleaded not guilty to the murder of her baby Amelia-Lilly last
:08:32. > :08:34.October. She was granted bail, with a trial now set for November.
:08:35. > :08:38.Some stroke services at the Diana Princess of Wales Hospital in
:08:38. > :08:40.Grimsby will temporarily close after being judged as inadequate by the
:08:40. > :08:44.Keogh Review. The review investigated unnecessarily high
:08:44. > :08:49.death rates at a number of hospitals. Services will move to
:08:49. > :08:55.Scunthorpe General. The NHS trust says this is the only way they can
:08:55. > :08:58.provide a 24-hour service that is safe for patients.
:08:58. > :09:01.Part of a recreation ground in Lincolnshire looks set to be sold to
:09:01. > :09:05.make way for a road to a new supermarket. District councillors
:09:05. > :09:09.voted last night for a compulsory purchase order on sections of a park
:09:09. > :09:19.owned by Sleaford Town Council. They said the controversial road is vital
:09:19. > :09:22.
:09:22. > :09:26.for the regeneration of the town. All the way through, are the --
:09:26. > :09:30.remit has been to represent the people. They do not want such a
:09:30. > :09:36.large loss of the recreation land and the closure of the level
:09:36. > :09:41.crossing. If we don't grow and provide jobs, we will be the little
:09:41. > :09:46.lost county where nothing ever happens. We don't want that to
:09:46. > :09:49.happen. We will continue to follow this dory.
:09:49. > :09:52.More support is needed to help new mothers with breast-feeding their
:09:52. > :09:55.babies and the public needs to play it's part. That's according to
:09:55. > :09:59.campaigners in Hull, who organised a breast-feeding event today in a city
:09:59. > :10:03.park. They say mums are often made to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed
:10:03. > :10:05.when they feed in public and that needs to stop. Breast-feeding can
:10:05. > :10:09.help protect children from infections and illness but despite
:10:09. > :10:19.an increase, nearly half of mothers still give up within the first two
:10:19. > :10:20.
:10:20. > :10:25.The benefits of breast-feeding for both mother and baby are well
:10:25. > :10:28.documented. This event in Hull is part of a worldwide attempt to break
:10:28. > :10:38.the record for the number of women breast-feeding and to give new mums'
:10:38. > :10:39.
:10:39. > :10:46.support. When mums come home from hospital, there are fewer visits by
:10:46. > :10:50.the midwife. We also, we know what you are going through. But there can
:10:50. > :10:53.still be a stigma attached to doing this in public. Last month on Look
:10:53. > :10:56.North, we told you about the mother asked by a train conductor to
:10:57. > :11:04.breast-feed in the toilet. Danielle Ashdown, with baby Stanley, tells of
:11:04. > :11:08.similar experiences. I am quite open to rest feeding in public. When
:11:08. > :11:14.Stanley was little, I once breast-fed in a disabled toilet and
:11:14. > :11:22.I thought, what am I doing? I wouldn't eat my lunch in a toilet,
:11:22. > :11:28.why would I expect my baby to? Events like this aim to give new
:11:28. > :11:31.mothers support and show them the NFS. -- the benefits. The Department
:11:31. > :11:34.of Health recommends mothers breast-feed for the first six
:11:34. > :11:37.months. But nationally, 37% of women stopped within eight weeks. In the
:11:37. > :11:42.Yorkshire and Humber, that figure is higher at 42%, while in the East
:11:42. > :11:45.Midlands, 43% of mothers stopped within six to eight weeks. Legally,
:11:45. > :11:55.women can breast-feed anywhere at anytime but often the law doesn't
:11:55. > :11:56.
:11:56. > :12:03.help. Some people seem to be offended. Some people don't
:12:03. > :12:08.understand the need for breast milk. People do if you running looks even
:12:08. > :12:14.if you are covered up with a bank it. People don't like it, for some
:12:14. > :12:18.reason. Your macro it is the most natural thing you can give your
:12:18. > :12:22.children. -- The ultimate goal is to show this is a normal part of
:12:22. > :12:25.day-to-day life. And as for world record, counting is now underway.
:12:26. > :12:28.Earlier, I spoke to Carolyn Rabow who's responsible for getting more
:12:28. > :12:38.mothers to breast-feed their children. I asked her why it is so
:12:38. > :12:42.hard to get women in this area to feed their babies naturally. It is
:12:42. > :12:46.historical. It is one of those things that once you get the ball
:12:46. > :12:53.rolling, once everything high percentage, it becomes more access
:12:53. > :12:57.to all. -- acceptable. The breast-feeding figures have gone up
:12:57. > :13:03.substantially in the last five or six year. We have on up from 20% to
:13:03. > :13:08.30%. Still very low. But it is improving. Women in Yorkshire, once
:13:08. > :13:13.they start to breast-feed, they do continue. But a lot of women give
:13:13. > :13:22.up. Why do they do that? Because it can be difficult, initially to
:13:22. > :13:25.breast-feed. They need support. Essentially, they need a lot of
:13:25. > :13:29.support from family and friends and if family and friends don't have
:13:29. > :13:33.that experience of breast-feeding, sometimes, the easiest option is to
:13:33. > :13:43.say if the baby a bottle because then we can help you. If you haven't
:13:43. > :13:50.
:13:51. > :13:56.got the confidence, we have a lot of young mothers... Is it the men's
:13:56. > :14:00.fault we are in this situation? is not the men's fault but the North
:14:00. > :14:06.of England and the East of England, it is not as culturally acceptable.
:14:06. > :14:13.We are behind the times which Mark your macro just a bit. You readily
:14:13. > :14:16.see women breast-feeding him public in the south. Because we have a low
:14:16. > :14:19.uptake, we don't see as many people doing get so it is not quite as
:14:19. > :14:28.acceptable. The more people you see breast-feeding, the more acceptable
:14:28. > :14:38.it becomes and the more comfortable women become. It is better for her,
:14:38. > :14:41.
:14:41. > :14:45.for the baby and for the long term outcomes for both are far better. We
:14:45. > :14:54.would like your views on this. do some people find it unacceptable
:14:54. > :15:02.which Mark how can we encourage people to take up breast-feeding?
:15:02. > :15:12.That is our e-mail address. And that is the text number. I look forward
:15:12. > :15:12.
:15:12. > :15:18.to hearing from you. Still ahead, the extras in East Yorks looking for
:15:18. > :15:23.a chance to shine on the small screen. Wearing the costumes, having

:16:29. > :16:35.is not going to be up white hot over the weekend. We have managed 26

:17:00. > :17:07.through the second part of the afternoon, so there is still a risk
:17:07. > :17:11.of the odd shower macro. Some will continue on until dawn. It will be

:17:22. > :17:31.16 degrees. Looking at the sun times, these are the sunrise times.
:17:31. > :17:35.Those are the next high waters. Tomorrow, there still will be a
:17:35. > :17:40.scattering of shower was, on and off through the morning into the winning
:17:40. > :17:46.but they will tend to fade away from the North. In between, there will be
