:00:09. > :00:19.graduate told to hide her qualifications to improve her
:00:19. > :00:27.chances of getting a job. I am doing everything I can and the
:00:27. > :00:30.only response is to take Under a cloud.
:00:30. > :00:33.My degree off my CV. The town that may have to live with bad smells
:00:33. > :00:36.until next summer. Campaigners fear a Grimsby swimming

:00:58. > :01:03.minutes. Good evening.
:01:03. > :01:07.An unemployed university graduate says she's been told to "dumb down"
:01:07. > :01:10.her CV if she wants to find a job in Hull. Liza Fitzpatrick has a degree
:01:10. > :01:13.from the city's university, but claims she was told by an employment
:01:13. > :01:16.advisor that it would make her overqualified for most vacancies.
:01:16. > :01:19.Her local MP Karl Turner has criticised the advice she was given
:01:19. > :01:25.and claims there's evidence of a "brain drain" in Hull. More from Tim
:01:25. > :01:28.Iredale. After leaving school with no
:01:28. > :01:34.qualifications, Liza Fitzpatrick never expected to go to university.
:01:34. > :01:37.So when she became a student in later life and graduated from the
:01:37. > :01:41.University of Hull, Ms Fitzpatrick thought it would give her a
:01:41. > :01:44.much—needed leg—up on the career ladder. That was until she says an
:01:44. > :01:55.adviser told her to remove any mention of her degree from her CV.
:01:55. > :01:59.He claimed employers will look at my CV and say, she is over employed, we
:01:59. > :02:02.will not take care on. Liza Fitzpatrick lives in the
:02:02. > :02:07.Bransholme area of Hull. She graduated last year with degree in
:02:07. > :02:13.social and community studies. She is looking for a job as a support
:02:13. > :02:18.worker with formidable people. I have been applying for advertise
:02:18. > :02:23.jobs. I am doing everything I can, and the advice is to take my degree
:02:23. > :02:29.off my CV. I don't know where to turn what else to do.
:02:29. > :02:32.Ms Fitzpatrick says she was advised about her CV by Work Solutions, an
:02:32. > :02:41.organisation which helps the long—term unemployed. The company
:02:41. > :02:44.said qualifications and degrees are achievements to be proud of, and
:02:44. > :02:49.that they would never recommend the removal from a CV. However, they add
:02:49. > :02:52.a CV should be focused clearly towards an industry sector or a
:02:52. > :02:59.vacancy that a candidate is applying for. I don't think it is appropriate
:02:59. > :03:06.for her to be told to dumb down her CV. It creates a brain drain. People
:03:06. > :03:12.want to go to their local university, get a good degree, great
:03:12. > :03:24.qualifications, then find themselves having to leave the city because of
:03:24. > :03:25.a lack of skilled jobs. This East Yorkshire—based
:03:25. > :03:31.recruitment agency says job—seekers shouldn't have to hide their
:03:31. > :03:35.qualifications. I have never come across anybody who says they do not
:03:35. > :03:40.want to employ somebody because of their qualifications. Meanwhile,
:03:40. > :03:43.Liza Fitzpatrick remains on the hunt for work and is hopeful that she'll
:03:43. > :03:49.find a vacancy to match her qualification.
:03:49. > :03:54.Earlier, I spoke to Apprentice finalist and enterprise champion
:03:54. > :04:04.Claire Young. I asked her what she thought of Liza being asked to
:04:04. > :04:07.remove her degree from her CV. I think it's absolutely ridiculous
:04:07. > :04:16.that somebody who has been to university, put the time and money
:04:16. > :04:21.in, has been advised to remove her CV — — remove her degree from her
:04:21. > :04:25.CV. People should be proud of their qualifications. She has and that
:04:25. > :04:33.degree and should be proud of it. It is completely wrong. Presumably, you
:04:33. > :04:38.can be other qualified for a job, so therefore dumb down and take it off.
:04:38. > :04:42.That is a counterargument. There are a lot of people with degrees and not
:04:42. > :04:54.a lot of jobs. You just have to turn on the TV, read a newspaper or
:04:54. > :05:00.listen to the radio to see that. You cannot discriminate against somebody
:05:00. > :05:06.because of qualifications. It is a free for all. You want to hire the
:05:06. > :05:11.right person for the job. Can you be overqualified for a job?
:05:11. > :05:17.I think some people would dismiss people straightaway if they are
:05:17. > :05:22.overqualified. The fear that they will walk into the job, stay a few
:05:22. > :05:28.weeks and then me far better job. I think that is the fear. So people
:05:28. > :05:33.can be overqualified. People want a job and they do want to work. If
:05:33. > :05:37.they want to clean floors or stack shelves and they have a degree, they
:05:37. > :05:43.just want to get to work. There has been a big response on this. Ian
:05:43. > :05:48.says, it just goes to show a degree is not worth the paper it is written
:05:48. > :05:53.on. I think that is a flippant comment. I think lots of
:05:53. > :06:00.degrees are worth the paper they are written on, such as the doctors we
:06:00. > :06:14.see and the vets who fix however — — the vets who fix our pets and the
:06:14. > :06:18.accountant who helps businesses. To search all degrees are not worth the
:06:18. > :06:20.paper they are written on, I think that is extreme. Thank you for your
:06:20. > :06:24.time. We'd love to hear your views on this
:06:24. > :06:27.story. Should Liza have to dumb down her CV and take out some of her
:06:28. > :06:31.qualifications if it means she then has a better chance of finding work
:06:31. > :06:32.in Hull? Or should she let potential employers know all her
:06:32. > :07:20.qualifications? If anyone might be able to help as a
:07:20. > :07:24.mental, get in touch. — — mentor. People living in Beverley have been
:07:24. > :07:26.told they'll have to suffer bad smells from the town's water
:07:26. > :07:29.treatment works for the foreseeable future. Yorkshire Water have
:07:29. > :07:32.apologised for the increased odours from the site but say it'll be at
:07:32. > :07:36.least nine months before an investigation can begin. And it'll
:07:36. > :07:38.be next year before they can start to solve the problem. Sarah Corker
:07:38. > :07:44.reports. It is a pleasant, picturesque place
:07:44. > :07:48.to live in the East Riding, but it seems in Beverly, there is something
:07:48. > :07:56.in the air. Sometimes it's not very sickly. Sewage, eggs, I don't know
:07:56. > :08:01.what it is. It is the smell of sewage. The toilets now. That's now
:08:01. > :08:08.emanates from the town 's sewage works. Those living nearby say that
:08:08. > :08:14.at times, it is unbearable. It is very depressing. It is ongoing and
:08:14. > :08:22.relentless. To odour control unit already operate 24 hours a day. This
:08:22. > :08:29.serves a population of around 47,000 people in and around the Beverley
:08:29. > :08:34.area. Every day, it treats lots of sewage. Yorkshire water has spent
:08:34. > :08:39.millions to upgrade the sites to curb growing demand. They are
:08:39. > :08:45.beginning an investigative study early next year. Once we have
:08:45. > :08:50.carried that out, we will be in a position to say what we intend to do
:08:50. > :08:56.to improve the site. Beverley 's population is growing, putting more
:08:56. > :09:08.pressure on the system. We are going to have another 3000 people, near
:09:08. > :09:13.enough. This need sorting now. Can this site cope with the number of
:09:13. > :09:22.people in this area? Yes. It is working and operating well.
:09:22. > :09:30.Elsewhere in East Yorkshire, the smell has played people in Hebden
:09:30. > :09:34.for years. At this resource, people said the smell is putting off
:09:35. > :09:46.visitors. Back in Beverley, they're using delicate ways of masking the
:09:46. > :09:53.odour. A short—term fix while Yorkshire water work on a more
:09:53. > :09:55.permanent solution. We will continue to follow that story.
:09:55. > :09:59.Swimmers in Grimsby have been told that the town's main swimming pool
:09:59. > :10:03.will remain closed until further notice after asbestos was found in
:10:03. > :10:07.the building. It was initially thought work to clear it would take
:10:07. > :10:10.only a few days, but North East Lincolnshire Council who own the
:10:10. > :10:14.pool say they don't know when it will re—open. It comes as nearby
:10:14. > :10:20.Cleethorpes Pool is also closed at the moment. Phil Norton is in
:10:20. > :10:25.Grimsby this evening. Why will it take so long to reopen this pool?
:10:25. > :10:37.Well, it is because of this doors have been closed for almost
:10:37. > :10:43.two weeks after this asbestos dust was found in the main swimming pool.
:10:43. > :10:47.The council say the specialist clean—up is taking place, and it is
:10:47. > :10:52.closed indefinitely until the results of special test are known.
:10:52. > :10:56.Campaigners have been telling me there have been campaigning against
:10:56. > :11:00.the closure of this pool. It is earmarked for closure and demolition
:11:00. > :11:05.in the next few years, to be replaced by smaller, new
:11:05. > :11:11.facilities. Campaigners say they fear these doors may never open
:11:11. > :11:18.again. Personally, I believe this is what they consider to be a step
:11:18. > :11:30.towards closure. I sincerely hope the rest of the town and everyone
:11:30. > :11:34.stands up and speaks out. North East Lincolnshire Council say this
:11:34. > :11:43.closure is precautionary, and say it follows an asbestos survey. It says
:11:43. > :11:52.the cleaning has been completed but it is waiting for the all clear
:11:52. > :11:56.before it can reopen. I do sympathise with the views of people
:11:56. > :12:01.who are passionate about the facility. On behalf of the council,
:12:01. > :12:09.we are sorry. We put health and safety as a top priority. The
:12:09. > :12:24.important thing is to get those results. Campaigners have told me it
:12:24. > :12:29.has thrown leisure facilities across Lincolnshire into disarray. They say
:12:29. > :12:35.it is putting more pressure on other facilities in the area.
:12:35. > :12:37.Thank you. The Prime Minister has told
:12:37. > :12:40.delegates at the Conservative Party Conference that the Humber should
:12:40. > :12:44.become a centre for green energy. Plans for a wind turbine factory in
:12:44. > :12:47.Hull were proposed in 2010 but the company behind them, Siemens, has
:12:47. > :12:54.not yet committed itself to the deal. David Cameron said the British
:12:54. > :12:59.economy had been too focused on London for too long. Think what more
:12:59. > :13:02.we could do with the Pistons fire ring in all parts of the economy.
:13:02. > :13:08.Let's make the Humber the centre of clean energy. Let's make Blackpool
:13:08. > :13:10.the centre of Europe for the shale gas industry.
:13:10. > :13:15.A woman accused of hiring a hit man to kill her husband is set to face a
:13:15. > :13:19.re—trial. A jury at Hull Crown Court failed to reach a verdict on whether
:13:19. > :13:21.Lisa Fairpo, seen here in the blue hoody, was guilty of conspiracy to
:13:21. > :13:25.commit murder. Prosecutors say they've contacted the court to seek
:13:25. > :13:29.a re—trial because the case is in the public interest.
:13:29. > :13:31.The Trust which runs hospitals in Lincolnshire says there's no
:13:31. > :13:33.decision on the future of out—of—hours emergency care at
:13:33. > :13:37.Grantham Hospital despite concerns that it maybe cut. The chairman of
:13:37. > :13:39.Lincolnshire County Council says he's worried that a review of how
:13:39. > :13:43.health care is town's accident and emergency unit
:13:43. > :13:46.will close overnight. But United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust says
:13:46. > :13:48.they're investing in health care in the county and no decisions have
:13:48. > :14:03.been made. You are
:14:03. > :14:12.maternity has gone and the out of hours. It is a good hospital, and it
:14:12. > :14:18.is a shame they keep putting it bit by bit. They ought to look after it
:14:18. > :14:24.and not reduce it. It would be not good if they did so. Thank you for
:14:24. > :14:32.watching. Still ahead tonight: How 11 newts are holding up development

:14:58. > :15:03.Thank you very much indeed. It made me laugh when I saw you pop—up. I
:15:03. > :15:09.thought this will be good, because you have been in a class.
:15:09. > :15:19.My course was in spoken English as well.
:15:19. > :15:24.I should have come with you. I am gone to watch carefully to see
:15:24. > :15:26.if the course was worth investing in.
:15:26. > :15:33.Peter, it is always accurate, you know that. After great start, it
:15:33. > :15:37.will turn brighter. We are expecting evening rain. It could be
:15:37. > :15:40.particularly heavy, courtesy of this very active weather fronts which
:15:40. > :15:47.will push through tomorrow evening and night. The good news yet again
:15:47. > :15:53.is that the weekend is looking to write with sunshine I think much of
:15:53. > :15:59.next week will be fine and quite one for October. Something to look
:15:59. > :16:06.forward to. You can see on the satellite picture, still a lot of
:16:07. > :16:16.cloud out there. I think for many, it is a dry and mild night for early
:16:16. > :16:29.October. Lowest temperatures down to 13 or 14. The sun will rise at
:16:30. > :16:52.7:06am. Perhaps a damp start in places. Thicker cloud threatens in
:16:52. > :16:56.the afternoon. Quite windy, especially later along the coast.
:16:56. > :16:57.Friday, sunny spells and scattered showers and a lovely weekend to
:16:58. > :17:11.follow. That's the forecast. Bari said, we no longer see
:17:11. > :17:14.barometric pressure charts. We do, because I use them every
:17:14. > :17:19.night. Are you sure?
:17:19. > :17:24.I am positive. What is wrong with him, then? Don't
:17:24. > :17:33.answer that. I am holding back a response.
:17:34. > :17:35.I know, that is why I said don't. Watch more politely tomorrow, Barry.
:17:35. > :17:41.That is the polite way. A growing number of young people in
:17:41. > :17:44.Lincolnshire who are being bullied are using a new online counselling
:17:44. > :17:48.service rather than talking about their problems face to face. The new
:17:48. > :17:58.service has seen the number of users double since it began in March.
:17:58. > :18:01.Leanne Brown reports. They should have been the best years
:18:01. > :18:04.of her life, but Katie from Market Deeping says her final days at
:18:04. > :18:23.school left her depressed and lonely. It started through Facebook.
:18:23. > :18:29.People would put comments on. What sort of things were they saying?
:18:29. > :18:33.Things like, go and die, you are fat, nobody likes you, your family
:18:34. > :18:38.hates you. Comments that made me feel that I hated myself as it felt
:18:38. > :18:40.like everybody else hated me. Katy welcomes Lincolnshire County
:18:40. > :18:46.Council's online counselling service which they've commisioned for 11—25
:18:46. > :18:48.year olds. Young people can talk about anything that's troubling
:18:48. > :18:52.them, and it's available out— of—hours — 365 days a year. So far,
:18:52. > :19:03.more than 80% of users said they prefer online counselling more than
:19:03. > :19:06.face—to—face. You can instantly access qualified counsellors, who
:19:06. > :19:09.are at the other end. You can have dropping chats with those
:19:09. > :19:16.councillors or have upped sessions with them. Young people like having
:19:16. > :19:20.that use of technology, so we have to make sure the services we provide
:19:20. > :19:24.move with the times as well. Teachers say in the last few years
:19:24. > :19:26.there has been a surge of youngesters using the internet. They
:19:26. > :19:29.welcome anything that could prevent a repeat of what happened to
:19:29. > :19:35.14—year—old Hannah Smith, who took her own life after being bullied on
:19:35. > :19:40.Ask FM. Bullying used to be just at school, in school. Now, of course it
:19:40. > :19:48.is anything to do with new technology. It might be Facebook, on
:19:48. > :19:55.instant messages, on phones. It is also on the major games, where they
:19:55. > :19:58.get headsets on. Any situation where the children who do not know where
:19:58. > :20:00.they are talking to. Here at Caistor Yarborough School
:20:00. > :20:02.they have anti—bullying ambassadors and drop—in sessions. But if
:20:02. > :20:13.students don't want to talk face—to—face, they can now do it
:20:13. > :20:17.online. Thanks to everybody who got in touch with us about the teaching
:20:17. > :20:20.strike yesterday. One of the region's biggest teaching
:20:20. > :20:23.unions has not ruled out further strikes. Around 250 schools in East
:20:23. > :20:25.Yorkshire and Lincolnshire were affected by yesterday's industrial
:20:25. > :20:28.action, which was widely condemned by the Government.
:20:28. > :20:48.There has been a very big response to this story.
:20:48. > :20:56.Thank you for the many messages. We read and listen to them all. The
:20:56. > :21:00.development of the visitor centre at Bempton Cliffs near Bridlington will
:21:00. > :21:04.cost £1 million and work was due to start this autumn. But it's been
:21:04. > :21:07.held up by a rather unusual discovery—a handful of Great Crested
:21:07. > :21:15.Newts, which are protected by European law. Amy Cole has been to
:21:15. > :21:21.find out more. It is stopping you from doing any
:21:21. > :21:24.redevelopment? It has delayed an aspect of the project. Scott is
:21:24. > :21:30.talking about the great crested newt, a species that has recently
:21:30. > :21:37.been found at the nature reserve. What is the problem with them being
:21:37. > :21:39.here? They are protected under European law. Any development which
:21:40. > :21:49.takes place, we have to make sure they are safe. Just over there is
:21:49. > :21:56.our overflow car park. With it being so close to the pond, it has delayed
:21:56. > :22:03.things. Is frustrating? Not at all. It is fantastic. The building of a
:22:03. > :22:07.major new shopping centre in York will not now open in time for
:22:07. > :22:11.Christmas, but has been pushed back to next Easter, and in Durham, work
:22:11. > :22:16.on a new police headquarters has been halted. Back in Pemberton,
:22:16. > :22:30.there is a lot to do, including fencing of the areas earmarked for
:22:30. > :22:35.construction — — backing Bempton. We will release the newts outside the
:22:35. > :22:40.fence in a safe area with a new improved habitat. When the
:22:40. > :22:43.contractors come on site next autumn, we will know their rhino
:22:43. > :22:49.newts to be injured, damaged or even killed. More than half of the
:22:49. > :22:53.development has come from the Heritage lottery fund, which has
:22:53. > :22:57.been told why, and usually that money cannot yet be spent. ?? new
:22:57. > :23:11.line You all remember this lady. Jean Bishop is also known as the Bee
:23:11. > :23:14.Lady from Hull. She raises thousands of pounds for charity and now she's
:23:14. > :23:18.won a top national award. Jean's been named as a winner at the Pride
:23:18. > :23:22.of Britain Awards and will appear on National TV next week. Jo Makel has
:23:22. > :23:26.been to meet her. ?? new line Jean Bishop has been an inspiration in
:23:26. > :23:29.this area for some time now. But now it seems she's being recognised as a
:23:29. > :23:39.national treasure too. The 91—year—old has raised more than
:23:39. > :23:43.£90,000 for charity. She knew she'd been nominated for a Pride of
:23:43. > :23:46.Britain Award. But while she was filming in London ahead of next
:23:46. > :23:51.week's ceremony, she got a surprise visitor. I started to look up and I
:23:51. > :23:59.came up to his chest. I thought, back is a cheek, he's pinching my
:23:59. > :24:06.patch. He is really kind. He explained I had won the award. I am
:24:06. > :24:10.very proud of it, yes. Last year, Jean was an Olympic torch bearer.
:24:10. > :24:13.She is also met the Queen. Those who have benefitted from her charity
:24:13. > :24:19.work say she deserves the recognition. To actually raise
:24:19. > :24:26.nearly £100,000 over 20 years is phenomenal. And just the way she has
:24:26. > :24:31.done it. It is has just been about her, dressing up and going out
:24:31. > :24:36.talking to people and collecting funds. She is such a lovely person,
:24:36. > :24:40.everybody loves her. Jean and her family will be at the
:24:40. > :24:51.awards ceremony. Although for the lady who loves dressing up, choosing
