Crews admit they struggle to get to patients in time. | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
The 81-year-old war veteran beaten up after asking a group of youths to | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
stop throwing things at his house. Turning empty shops into houses, the | :00:28. | :00:36. | |
plan to breath new life into our high streets. | :00:36. | :00:43. | |
And more than 30,000 people watch Hull's finest local talent. | :00:43. | :00:53. | |

weather forecast later in the programme. | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
It provides emergency care for almost five million people, but for | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
the past three years the East Midlands Ambulance Service has | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
failed to meet its response times. Tonight we go behind the scenes with | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
the ambulance crews who are struggling to meet those targets and | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
hear claims that there simply aren't enough ambulances on the road in | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
Lincolnshire. It's been a troubled few months for | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
EMAS. Earlier this year it was fined �3.5 million for missing targets | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
again. A controversial plan to reorganise | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
the service has been called in for review by the government. And then | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
on Friday, the Chief Executive left his job after less than two years in | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
the role. In a moment I'll be talking to a local MP who sits on | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
Parliament's Health Committee and has his own ideas about what need to | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
happen to EMAS in the future. But first, this special report from our | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
Health Correspondent Vicky Johnson, who spent a night with ambulance | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
crews in Lincolnshire. Vicky's report does contain some flashing | :02:02. | :02:09. | |
lights. We are just making sure we have got | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
everything that we need. That's the first job crews do when they clock | :02:13. | :02:23. | |
:02:23. | :02:24. | ||
on. Minutes later, they get their first It takes them 16 minutes to | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
drive the 12 miles to Dunham on Trent, where an elderly man has | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
collapsed. A decision's quickly made to transfer him straight to hospital | :02:33. | :02:43. | |
:02:43. | :02:43. | ||
in Lincoln. We are not really sure what is going on with him. I think | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
he came through as an eight minute response. Because of where it what | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
it took us longer than that and that was one that was missed. This is | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
such a huge county. My personal opinion is that we do not have | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
enough vehicles on the road to cover the amount of people that we deal | :03:00. | :03:06. | |
with on a daily basis. The handover at the emergency department went | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
quickly and smoothly, but that's not always the case. We had two vehicles | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
to queue in on Tuesday. This is an all year round thing now. It is | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
frustrating when you are sat at the back of the queue waiting with | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
patients that are potentially quite poorly, but there is just nowhere to | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
put them. Before they can go back on call, the crew has to complete the | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
new electronic patient report forms, and that can take up to half an | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
hour. League-macro you can experience -- you can experience | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
quite extensive delays. We just have to see the patient as quickly as we | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
can. Admin completed, and it's straight back on the road, attending | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
to yet another emergency. There is a 25-year-old female who is querying | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
an asthma attack. By the time they get to North Hykeham, a first | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
responder from Lives is already there. This time the service has met | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
its response target. I am just about two or three miles up the road | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
there. One in our responders lives just up the corner so it is quite a | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
local one for me. The crew take over and decide not to take the young | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
woman to hospital. Instead, they make an appointment for her at the | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
out of hours service. We do all of the paperwork the same. We will make | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
an appointment and bring them up now and then he can bring them back once | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
she has seen the doctor there. have described a job, a 72-year-old | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
female that has fallen and hurt her leg. But within minutes they were | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
diverted from Sleaford to Woodhall Spa. A 19-year-old female with | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
breathing problems. The elderly date he will have to wait until someone | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
else is available to go see to her. -- the elderly lady. If there is | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
going to be a delay in getting a crew to a patient they will send a | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
fire crew out -- the fire brigade out. It's took the crew 15 minutes | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
to get here, but as first responders, the fire brigade were on | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
scene much quicker. As far as the crews on the ground are concerned, | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
patients should always be put first. Patient care, second sometimes, | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
which is a shame that targets me nothing to us at the end of the day. | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
We are here to deal with the patients and treat them. There are a | :05:29. | :05:36. | |
lot of politics in the job that we do. I come for the public and I may | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
best and then go home again. There is an emergency call to the East | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
Midlands Ambulance Trust every 45 seconds, and demand is increasing | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
every year. Extra funding for more front-line staff should have been | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
sure of the battle to answer all calls within the necessary targets | :05:52. | :06:01. | |
is one more often. Nobody from EMAS wanted to be | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
interviewed today, but in a statement told us that the poor road | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
network in Lincolnshire does make meeting targets a challenge. | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
However, they've secured some additional funding that will be | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
spent on a 126 extra front-line staff. Andrew Percy is the MP for | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
Brigg and Goole and is also on the Health select Committee. He's with | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
me this evening. The Trust has been fined �3.5 million for failing to | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
meet targets for the third year running. Plans for reorganisation | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
have been put on hold and on Friday the Chief Executive resigned. How | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
much confidence do you have in this ambulance service? I am very | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
concerned about this whole state of affairs, actually. My constituents | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
living in rural parts of Lincolnshire deserve the best | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
ambulance service and for the targets to be meant as much as | :06:43. | :06:50. | |
possible. We have to ask whether or not this trust is fit for purpose. | :06:50. | :06:57. | |
Do we need to be listening to this? Yes. Southern parts of | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
Leicestershire all the way up to the Humber Bridge, we need to ask, is | :07:02. | :07:09. | |
this trust serving our area and to these big trusts really work? | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
senior paramedic who we heard from there says targets come before | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
patient care. Is she right? You have got to have the targets. I would not | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
want to see the eight minute target go. For rural areas they will always | :07:21. | :07:28. | |
be more challenging. It is the rural areas that suffer even more if you | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
are not pushing the trust all the time to hit the eight minutes | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
targets. The paramedics are right, patients must always come first, but | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
targets can help to achieve that. All of this money would be better | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
spent on the service itself, wouldn't it? It does sound a bit of | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
a perverse incentive that you find a trust for not hitting its target and | :07:49. | :07:58. | |
then put them in the worst financial position. -- find a trust will stop | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
-- find a trust. Will your government relax the targets or will | :08:04. | :08:12. | |
you invest in more ambulance crews for Lincolnshire. We have been | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
increasing the number of paramedics. There are more paramedics nationally | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
on the front line, but there is supposedly going to be an | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
announcement this week of an extra half �1 billion to deal with this | :08:25. | :08:34. | |
crisis, so hopefully that will release more ambulances. Should | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
Lincolnshire have its services again? We need to find out whether | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
mixing these larger urban areas with rural areas is really fit for | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
purpose or would we be better with a more rural focused amulets service. | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
It is up to the commissioners ultimately, but I think we should | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
look at whether we should have a smaller service. Thank you very much | :08:57. | :09:07. | |
indeed for coming in. We'd like to hear your views on this one. What's | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
been your experience of the ambulance service locally? Do you | :09:09. | :09:19. | |
:09:19. | :09:30. | ||
think the crews are overstretched? In a moment: Why criminals gangs are | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
costing our rural communities more than �5 million a year. | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
People living on a Grimsby estate are calling for CCTV cameras to be | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
installed after an 81-year-old war veteran was attacked by a group of | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
youths. Barney Alcock suffered cuts to his face after a confrontation | :09:46. | :09:54. | |
outside his home. It's claimed the boys had been throwing things at his | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
windows. Crispin Rolfe's report contains some graphic images of Mr | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
Alcock's injuries. He has that's too much of a scab, so | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
I have to take him back on Thursday. -- he has got too much. Recovering | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
after an attack. But Barney Alcock, who has dementia, can't remember how | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
he sustained these wounds. But it's left the 81-year-old former Korean | :10:19. | :10:26. | |
War veteran to be treated at home by his wife after two hospital visits. | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
Honestly, he cannot remember what happened. He still keeps going a bit | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
dizzy when he looks down. Wife Thelma, however, remembers Barney | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
going outside to intervene after a group of youngsters repeatedly threw | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
cherries at the windows of the couple's Grimsby home. I came back | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
in here to get the telephone to phone the police and get the lads | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
moved on. I got to the kitchen window and was talking to this | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
police lady and I saw him at the floor. I went out and had a look and | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
I was absolutely gob smacked at the state of him when I got across the | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
road. He was absolutely covered with blood, his white vest was red, and | :11:03. | :11:13. | |
:11:13. | :11:16. | ||
it was all down his trousers and deliver the floor. A week on, and | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
the talk along the Nunsthorpe Estate is of who was or wasn't involved. | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
And from neighbours along Redbourne Road and Winchester Avenue, how to | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
prevent an assault like this from happening again. The call from parts | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
of the community is for CCTV cameras to be installed. I think it would be | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
a good idea. There are a lot of old people around here and I think it | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
would make them feel a little bit secure. There is no excuse. You do | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
not do that, especially to an old person. They are a lovely couple | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
next door. Police have issued a statement to say they have arrested | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
a 14-year-old boy in connection with the incident you had subsequently | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
been let out on bail. They are still looking for further witnesses to | :11:55. | :12:03. | |
come further -- forward. In the meantime, Barney Alcock says the | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
attack won't deter him from going out in future. But among the local | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
Nunsthorpe community, the assault of this 81-year-old man has been | :12:09. | :12:16. | |
branded as completely unacceptable. A man whose body was found in a | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
drain in Lincolnshire has been named. 27-year-old Aleksandr | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
Vasilevskij, who's originally from Lithuania, was found in the Maud | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
Foster drain in Boston on Friday. An inquest is expected to be opened | :12:28. | :12:37. | |
tomorrow. Work has begun to expand the | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
Accident and Emergency department at the Diana Princess of Wales hospital | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
in Grimsby has begun. �60,000 will be spent where the most seriously | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
ill patients are assessed. The hospital says it will mean more | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
people can be treated at the same time, reducing the waiting times for | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
ambulance crews. Empty shops in high streets should | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
be turned into homes, that's according to Lincolnshire MP and | :12:56. | :13:05. | |
Planning Minister Nick Boles. He believes we should worry less about | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
empty shops and turn them into homes and dad. Our business correspondence | :13:08. | :13:17. | |
has been looking at how that might work. -- instead. Nick balls need to | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
look no further than his and constituency to the -- Katrin | :13:22. | :13:32. | |
:13:32. | :13:32. | ||
Jonsdottir needs to look no further being in a sustainable place in the | :13:33. | :13:37. | |
middle of town, being eyes on the street said that if anybody was | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
thinking of misbehaving, they would not be so likely to do so. Nick | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
Boldt is that you told a local newspaper that he a relaxed -- | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
relaxed approach. His comments are controversial because he appears to | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
be the First Minister to suggest that in parts of our high street, we | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
should abandon -- abandoned retailing altogether. The government | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
has tried to breathe new life -- live in the towns by using retail | :14:05. | :14:13. | |
experts, but the project has had mixed progress. We need shops and we | :14:13. | :14:21. | |
need people to come into town and spend Monday -- money. There is | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
hardly any housing around here anyway, so it would be good. | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
cities like Lincoln, it is a ready happening. These offices have been | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
converted into homes. You're looking at refurbishment. You are not having | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
to release it so much Greenland. Actually, it does make sense to | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
revitalize and rejuvenate areas and set of letting them fall into | :14:43. | :14:50. | |
natural decay. This man says that turning shops into homes is a bad | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
idea. Let's not decrease the footfall by turning shots into | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
housing. Let's increase the footfall by trying to get more people in the | :14:59. | :15:09. | |
:15:09. | :15:16. | ||
town. In a statement, Nick Boles was is now going to recommend that | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
councils concentrate their shots into one or two prime streets. | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
town centres could be looking very different to these proposals become | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
reality. -- if these proposals. This is another story we'd like your | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
thoughts on. Is Nick Boles right? Should empty shops be turned into | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
houses or flats? Will anything breathe new life into our shopping | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
:15:47. | :15:57. | ||
streets? people watch on as Hull's | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
transformed into an arts and music festival. But will it be enough to | :16:02. | :16:12. | |
:16:12. | :16:16. | ||
earn Hull the title of City of photographs coming in. It was a very | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
busy weekend in Lincolnshire. Saturday, waiting for the | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
illuminations to be switched on. Thank you very much for that's. A | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
very busy day on the photographs front of Sunday. This is from an air | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
show. A lot of planes on the programme recently. I think the | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
presenter was a plane spotter. Thank you very much. Another picture | :16:45. | :16:55. | |
:16:55. | :16:57. | ||
tomorrow night. Let's get the around but tomorrow promises to be a | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
lot drier and brighter. -- little bit of rain. This little ridge of | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
high pressure is going to give us a bit more settled conditions. It | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
looks like it will continue through Wednesday as well. The promise of | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
drier and bright weather ahead. Tonight we will see spells of rain. | :17:14. | :17:21. | |
If you have your of rain as he go into overnight tonight. -- as we go | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
into overnight tonight for the a fresher field tonight so it will be | :17:25. | :17:35. | |
easier to get to sleep tonight. The sun role rise at 5:24am. Those are | :17:35. | :17:45. | |
:17:45. | :17:50. | ||
a deal of dry weather on the cards for tomorrow. Clouds will bubble up | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
as we go through the afternoon, but more importantly, it looks as though | :17:53. | :18:00. | |
it will stay dry. When we see the sunshine, temperatures will be up to | :18:00. | :18:08. | |
19 and 20, if not 21 degrees. With a light read, it should feel quite | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
pleasant, and it will be a quite -- with a light breeze, it should feel | :18:12. | :18:21. | |
quite pleasant. Amateurs will still hover around 19 or 20 degrees -- | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
temperatures will still hover around 19 or 20 degrees. And looks like we | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
are sad to see one or two more showers. For Thursday and Friday, | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
the showers will linger on the coast. Tomorrow it looks like it | :18:32. | :18:42. | |
:18:42. | :18:46. | ||
Yorkshire and the Humber is the highest in the country. New figures | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
show that, while it's at a five year low, crime in the countryside still | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
costs this area more than �3 million a year. Emma Massey has more. | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
What short of majors -- what sort of measures have you taken to protect | :18:57. | :19:03. | |
the church? We had to put equipment up a few years ago when we were | :19:03. | :19:12. | |
brought for light. -- Rob for light. Installed to protect this church in | :19:12. | :19:20. | |
Harpham, East Yorkshire from rural crime. This CCTV footage also helped | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
to convict this man, seen here walking away, of stealing from this | :19:24. | :19:29. | |
and over 600 other churches from up and down the country. Jeanette | :19:29. | :19:39. | |

burgled and were among one of 56 properties targeted that night. | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
not get frightened very easily will stop -- I do not get frightened very | :19:56. | :20:06. | |
:20:06. | :20:07. | ||
easily, but I was stopped my husband was away. Lincolnshire was the third | :20:07. | :20:16. | |
worst area hit in 2012, with �1.8 million lost to criminals. Crime has | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
fallen significantly year after year because a lot of prevention measures | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
have gone into the area. As well as actively policing local communities, | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
police are now working alongside them in order to stay one step ahead | :20:30. | :20:36. | |
of criminals. We have to build a big team, and local residents are an | :20:36. | :20:43. | |
integral part of that team. In North Lincolnshire, at the farm watch | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
scheme there has been in existence for two years and they have managed | :20:46. | :20:54. | |
to half rural crime in that time. But there's still some way to go to | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
bring down this and other types of crime in rural areas to make them a | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
safer place to live and work. But even though rural crime figures are | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
at a five year low there's still work to be done to make the | :21:06. | :21:08. | |
countryside even safer. A Lincoln teacher has drowned while on | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
holiday. She was an English teacher at an academy. The Foreign Office | :21:12. | :21:20. | |
says it is providing consular assistance to her family. | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
On Friday's programme we reported how drivers in rural areas feel they | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
are becoming isolated because of the cost of filling up their cars. It | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
followed the Government's announcement it will consider | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
extending a fuel discount to remote parts of the country but failed to | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
include Lincolnshire or East Yorkshire. There was a big response. | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
Ian says, "If people choose to live in rural areas surely they must | :21:39. | :21:49. | |
:21:49. | :22:20. | ||
those. Scunthorpe United manager Brian Laws | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
has challenged his players to build on Saturday's season opening wind | :22:23. | :22:30. | |
against Mansfield. The Iron beat the visitors 2-0l, with goals from new | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
signings Matt Sparrow and Sam Winnall. The manager says he's | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
pleased with how his players handled the match. At times it was not | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
pretty but we had to be determined to deal with what ever they were | :22:39. | :22:44. | |
going to throw in the box. There was a lot of aerial bombardment against | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
a big site and I think we got the bad and it shows that we can deal | :22:48. | :22:58. | |
:22:58. | :23:03. | ||
with that and that we can play wind the title of City of Culture. | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
But if this event is anything to go by, Hull is putting up a pretty | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
decent fight. 160 local acts performing on ten stages with an | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
estimated audience of 34,000 people. For local artists from all genres, | :23:13. | :23:23. | |
:23:23. | :23:50. | ||
comedians and DJs, it was not a bad We have got some amazing talent and | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
some great photographers. What we find ever the years is that they get | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
to the colleges and universities and then leave the area, but events like | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
this hopefully can help us towards the Colts are -- City of Culture | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
bed, which will hopefully help us keep our creative people in the | :24:05. | :24:12. | |
city. It was so busy the pumps ran dry in this pub, this pop up cafe | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
was rushed off their feet, all good for business and of course the bid. | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
It was just a massive showcase of local talent at all levels. Not just | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
music, but food and drink, art, design. It was a good show and I | :24:25. | :24:35. | |
think it could Hull pride. -- proud. There is a lot of talent in Hull and | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
we deserve this recognition. This is what the competition are up to. | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
Leicester held its annual Caribbean Carnival at the weekend, but Swansea | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
Bay and Dundee have held no major free events since they were short | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
listed. Hull has got a lot to deliver and achieve, but it has got | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
the people on the grounds that have proved that they can create events | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
that people want to come to, and we have got to share with that we have | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
the energy and in duty as him and the commitment of local people. | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
Well, with just a few weeks left before the final bid is entered, the | :25:05. | :25:12. | |
work doesn't stop here. The push to become a City of Culture continues. | :25:12. | :25:18. | |
Dundee sounds fine, it doesn't do it, and the sun. Caroline is on | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
Humber Street this evening. What will this do for Hull's bid to | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
become the UK's City of Culture in 2017? | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
It would not be a success on Saturday without the people. Where I | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
am standing now, it was absolutely packed with people. This event at | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
the weekend was the start of a month of a free events taking place in the | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
city. Every the next five weeks, there will be three festivals in the | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
city. It is the final push. You are from the bid team. What can people | :25:46. | :25:52. | |
do to get involved? Two we would like for people to bite us on | :25:52. | :26:00. | |
Facebook and follow us on Twitter. Just find out what is happening. Put | :26:00. | :26:08. | |
your ideas in. What do the people of Hull want from a City of Culture? | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
The more likes and shares we get, the better. It also means that | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
people's ideas can't get put into the mix and into the bid. Fingers | :26:16. | :26:24. | |
crossed. We have the festival of food and drink next week, and it | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
takes place in the city centre. Let's get a recap on today's | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
headlines: Four years after his death during the G20 protests, Ian | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
Tomlinson's family gets a formal apology from the Metropolitan | :26:35. | :26:42. | |
Police. And amulets -- amulets cruise in | :26:43. | :26:46. | |
Lincolnshire say they are struggling to meet their targets. There are | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
calls for the East Midlands Ambulance Trust to be broken up. | :26:49. | :26:53. | |
need to ask whether mixing up these large urban areas with rural areas | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
is creating a fit for purpose services or would we be better with | :26:56. | :27:02. | |
a more rural focused ambulance service. The weather for tomorrow, | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
dry and bright, with some funny style. Just the chance of a shower. | :27:06. | :27:16. | |
:27:16. | :27:20. | ||
Top temperatures will be getting up amulets service. They say that | :27:20. | :27:24. | |
Lincolnshire needs its own amulets service. Samantha says that | :27:24. | :27:30. | |
Lincolnshire used to hit all of its targets. One man wonders how the | :27:30. | :27:35. | |
services to post to achieve targets when the government is fining them | :27:35. | :27:39. |
