25/11/2013 Look North (East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire)

London. That is all from the BBC News at

six. On BBC One we Good evening and welcome to BBC Look

North. The headlines tonight: Legal highs ` the new drugs ruining young

people's lives. They are made on the black market. They can be made in a

cement mixer and somebody's basement.

Claims Grimsby Town are suffocating in a dated stadium, but there's a

row over plans for a new ground. A for the most serious cases in

Lincolnshire could be centralised in just one place. And remembering the

day the Beatles came to Hull, fifty years ago. And don't forget the

weather forecast follows. A Lincolnshire mother says her

family has been destroyed after her sons became addicted to drugs called

legal highs. Both sons stole from her to fund their habits ` one has

been sectioned under the Mental Health Act. Incidents involving the

drugs have affected almost every secondary school in Lincolnshire.

Hull has been named in one report as having among the highest number of

legal high outlets in England, But police say there is little they can

do to stop the supply, as Crispin Rolfe reports: You can buy them on

the internet, in high street shops markets, or even at car`boot sales.

Legal highs mimic the effect of illegal drugs. But there are serious

risks to them, as they're often made from plant food or research

chemicals. A mother from Lincolnshire told us how her two

sons became addicted. Brenda and Elliott's names have been changed.

Legal highs have a really broken her family. I have one son who does not

live with me. My eldest is detained under the mental health act. A

friend said, how about trying something new? I thought, I will

give it a go. It got out of hand. If I was going out, getting stoned all

night, I den function all day. Elliott stopped taking legal highs

six months ago, but this is what he was on: Exodus Damntion ` easily

found and bought online in a matter of minutes. On this site there are

even bulk buy discounts. Some of them produce Frank and very

unpleasant hallucinations. Some can kill you. Some can make you feel

very depressed. They are not a controlled product. They are made on

the black market. They could be made in a cement mixer in somebody's

basement. And that's what makes policing it so hard. Just as one

substance is banned, new legal products are constantly being

created. In Lincolnshire almost every secondary school in the county

has reported a legal high problem. Students know that if they bring

them in they would be permanently excluded. That is the policy. But we

hear what students are doing over weekends, including legal highs.

That concerns us. I don't know who you get them off, but you can get

them easily. Why should we use them? Why are they legal if they are

so bad? Lincolnshire Police are now cracking down on suppliers, who may

be illegally selling legal highs to under 18s. But right now Elliott

says these untested chemicals are all to easy to come by. If I saved

up all the money that I spent an legal highs and could have afforded

a three`week holiday. What would you rather do? Earlier I spoke to Harry

Shapiro who's an expert on drugs and asked him if making these drugs

illegal would solve the problem. A number of them already are. The

complication is that much of these substances, anything in a packet, it

can be a mixture of legal and illegal. So the situation is

complicated. Just banning stuff is not necessarily an answer. Are they

readily available? Our research, and other charity research would suggest

that they are widely available. Not just online, but a number of other

ordinary high`street retail outlets. How can police do anything? It is

very hard. The legal powers are quite restricted. Which is why

people are looking at trading standards and consumer legislation,

other ways of addressing the problem. How hard is it to stop

teenagers, all warned them not to get involved? That has always proved

difficult. Even in relationship to more familiar drugs. But there needs

to be more public messaging about these substances. The idea abroad is

that somehow legal eagles safe. And the fact you can buy them anywhere

means that somehow they have tested clinically proven. Those are the

wrong messages. Many people will be shocked by this story. Do you have a

message to young people? No drug, no risk. Legal is not safe. If you're

going to experiment, and I suggest you shouldn't, but if you are, be

very careful. What do you think? We want to hear.

We will try to get back to her in a moment.

The NHS in Lincolnshire is facing a ?100 million hole in its finances

unless some big, brave decisions are made about services in the future.

That's the conclusion of a report looking at health and social care

across the county. Patients are being warned they will need to

accept changes that could include centralising A, maternity and

children's care on just one hospital site. Our health correspondent Vicky

Johnson has been looking at the report. Hospital services across

Lincolnshire have faced one critical report after. `` another. Just this

year they've been investigated for high death rates, been put in

special measures and been told to take urgent action by a health

watchdog. Now in response local health managers have come up with a

wide reaching review. One of the proposals could see A services

centralised on one hospital site supported by smaller, local

departments. It is about making things as local as possible. Giving

people really good quality of care, locally. So in Lincolnshire will

have won a major, urgent care centre? We have not formally made

the decision. It would certainly be the case if we were doing nothing

and just following national policy, that is what they would take us to.

These shoppers in Boston say they hope their local hospital doesn't

lose any services. We are in the middle of nowhere. It is a long way

to go to Lincoln Nottingham. It is not going to be very easy to do.

Instead of downgrading they should opt right. `` upgrade. The local

healthwatch group has promised to scrutinise all all proposals every

step of the way. We are watching carefully. When this review gets

further development and proposals come out, we will need to look very

carefully at them to see what effect they will have.

We have not yet been given specific details. But hospitals like this one

will likely become smaller. Bed numbers will be reduced and services

centralised. In short, our hospitals will look very different to how they

do now. A father from Skegness whose son was

left in a coma when he was knocked off his bike, says the sixteen year

old has spoken for the first time since the incident in July. Ryan

Smith is being transferred from Lincoln County Hospital today, to a

specialist brain unit in Surrey. His father Mark Smith is campaigning to

make cycle helmets compulsory. A court's heard how a man, who's

alleged to have helped to carry out an arson attack on a Mosque in

Grimsby, drove a car to the building knowing that it contained petrol

bombs. What has the court been told. The arson attack, directed at the

mosque behind me, happened on May 26. Daniel Cressey, 24, denies any

involvement in the attack. The jury, made up of eight women and four men,

were shown CCTV footage obtained from a house where two other men,

who have already pleaded guilty, are filmed making petrol bombs. Daniel

Cressey is then seen arriving at the property, where he stays for 40

mins. The CCTV footage then captures Cressey leaving the property and

getting into his car. He is accused of giving the two men a lift to the

mosque knowing that the car contained the petrol bombs, so

aiding and abetting the attack. He denies this charge. The other men,

Stuart Harness, the defendants cousin, and Gavin Humphries, both in

their thirties, have already pleaded guilty to the charge of arson with

the intent to endanger the lives of others at an earlier hearing. The

trial continues. Thank you for watching. Still ahead

tonight: The day the Beatles came to Hull ` and why it caused screaming

and fainting. It was unbelievable. Before the Beatles, nothing like

that happened. Tonight's photograph was taken by

Alan. The sunset taken near Gainsborough.

And now the weather. Campaigners say it would be disrespectful to build a

new stadium for it is not looking too bad. Dry, frosty start, sunshine

around, fog in places. High pressure still in charge. A change in midweek

as a weather front introduces less cold air. Temperatures could be as

high as 10 Celsius, feeling milder. It has been disappointing across the

south`east. A stream of cloud flowing in. But that will continue

to break up. We will see skies turning increasingly clear. Just a

light, north to north`westerly wind. A widespread, possibly moderate

frost. This is what we are thinking temperatures will be at, dawn. Let's

look at the sunrise times. And your high water times. A frosty start

tomorrow morning, fog around. It might take much of the morning to

clear. Otherwise bright with sunshine. A lovely, light autumn

day. The top temperatures, the average for this time of year is

about eight or nine degrees. We are quite below that. Four or five

Celsius. We have a weather front to come through on Tuesday. A week

feature. Weakening the cloud and bringing a little light rain and

drizzle. Many places stay dry. Wednesday morning, a cloudy start.

Temperatures recovering nicely. A milder feel. Thursday looks dry.

Patchy rain for a time first thing on Friday. Thank you.

Darren wanted to listen to your show and got this message. That sums you

up. Campaigners say it would be

disrespectful to build a new Grimsby town stadium next to a garden of

remembrance. But the club says their Blundell Park ground is a "dated

Victorian stadium" and they have to move. This afternoon, the Mariners

have been given another year to find financial backing for a site near

Peaks Parkway. Emma Massey reports. Wills B road is a quiet residential

street. At the far end, an allotment, and the crematorium. It

is here that Grimsby town want to develop a stadium. They have been

given 12 months to find a partner to achieve that goal. The majority of

people wanted to sign this... In just one week over 400 people had

signed a petition against it. People will not be able to sell their

properties, in addition, it is in close proximity to a cemetery. That

is well used at the weekends. To have the situation where you have

all crowds chanting in the background, `` football, that is a

bad idea. Grimsby have played at their current ground since 1899.

They have made a number of failed attempts for an out`of`town stadium.

In 2012, this area was put forward. It is an issue that has rumbled on

for 20 years with no solution. The residents are against the plans and

haven't been so since they were first proposed. All the residents

are absolutely against it. We had notices in the window. I doubt if

you would get more than the odd one that wants it. It is wrong. But it

is a different view from supporters. They say it is the only option for

the club if it is to have a future success. There has got to be

progress for the future. It is stifling ambition and progress. It

is definitely needed. It is very important for the future of the

club. Good for the town also. The decision means more uncertainty, for

supporters and the local residents who do not want a stadium on their

doorstep. Earlier I spoke to one of Grimsby

Town's directors and asked him how important it was for the club to

find a new home. If you look at the current ground, it was built in

Victorian times. It is located next to the sea. When all is said and

done, we will never have a situation where we can get sufficient parking.

People want to come these days, we could throw ?10 million

regeneration, and it simply would not increase our income in anyway,

shape, or form. Why choose a site close to electronic touring? ``

close to a crematorium. We engaged very sensibly with all kinds of

April suffering bereavement. We bring families together. We have

wakes at the foot club. We can sympathetically handle being nearby

a crematorium. There is absolutely no way that I feel playing football

once every fortnight is going to actually cause any issues with

regard to people visiting the crematorium. We don't clash with

services that take place. I think we can have the harmony that we have

always had with neighbours. People don't agree with that. 400

signatures on a petition. At the end of the day the football club needs

to relocate. There are very few places it can relocate to. We need

to enable development. There are only a couple of occasions that

would work. One has fallen through because of the cost associated

conditions attached. It is not viable relocate elsewhere. This

particular location benefits us because it is land owned by the

council. That does not sidestep the need for us to get planning

permission and jump through the hoops you need to deal with. Will it

happen? I believe we have a real opportunity to deliver. But it

relies on enabling development. We need an exclusivity agreement in

place to work on it further. In time I'm sure we will have good news.

What do you think? We want to hear. Thanks for getting in touch about

our story about the Beverley and Holderness MP's Royal Mail campaign

to take Humberside from its database of addresses. He wants "East

Yorkshire" reinstated. Debbie says she would love a Humberside sticker.

Her mail annoys her. She is proud to let people know she lives in East

Yorkshire. Martin prefers the original names. He asks why people

talk about Yorkshire and the Humber when no`one actually lives in the

river. Sheila says the people living in a Lincolnshire village have one

week left to save their local church Urgent repairs are needed on the

spire on St Margaret's Church in Thimbleby near Horncastle. If they

aren't done it could collapse. Natural England have told local

residents they have until this weekend to repair it. They say

delaying the work could disrupt bats who are about to start hibernation.

The mighty Liverpool provide Hull City with their next opponents in

the Premier League straight after the Tigers' first home defeat to

bottom club Crystal Palace at the KC Stadium. Looking ahead to that and

Scunthorpe United here's our sports reporter Simon Clark. It was a day

when not much went right for the Tigers. Even seeing Yannick Bolasie

sent`off for Palace didn't do much as the London side dusted themselves

down to score the only goal of the game. And fans and stewards had a

spat about the unfurling of a banner as the club naming row rumbles on.

On the pitch City must do better and the manager knows it. You could see

that they became more confident and relied on the counterattack. We

certainly did not do enough to win the game, although I did not think

we deserved to lose it. With Crystal Palace having Iman said off and

scoring straight after, we could have done a lot better. Nothing to

get excited about. Hull City now face six crucial December dates with

two of the giants, Liverpool and Manchester Utd brining their culture

to the city. They're without a manager but caretaker Russ Wilcox

was delight with Scunthorpe United's win at Portsmouth. On`loan

midfielder Dave Sires scored both goals for the Iron who head to third

placed Rochdale tomorrow. It would be a tough game for both teams. We

put our stamp on the game be positive. We're not going to shut up

shop. It could be an exciting game. Wilcox won't be drawn on the job but

a win tomorrow and again on Saturdat agaisnt Torquay Utd might put him in

the frame A police officer from Cleethorpes has made the Guinness

Book of Records for owning the world's largest collection of

bagpipes. Danny Fleming owns 105 sets of bagpipes which he's been

collecting since he was a teenager. One set is valued at ?10,000. I got

in touch with the Guinness book of records. They allocated me a manager

and a witness. They are quite sticklers for detail. My wife is

delighted. She thinks I will be selling them. But not at this time.

It's 50 years since the Beatles were on stage at the ABC Cinema in Hull.

The anniversary has been marked with a tribute performance in a shopping

centre which is on the site of the old cinema. We were there and met

people who saw the Beatles five decades ago. The whole of the error

around the ABC, you could not move. `` area. There were so many people

screaming. In 1963 Beatlemania took over Hull when the fab four came to

town. Hundreds of fans gathered to see them perform at city's ABC

Cinema. Lynda Hill met the band and saw them play that day. It was

unbelievable. Before the Beatles, nothing like that had happened. They

were absolutely lovely. It was a dream. Yesterday in Hull the sound

of the beatles travelled through St Stephen's shopping centre ` which

was built in the cinema's place ` a tribute act marked the gig's 50th

anniversary. I was outside when they played at the ABC. I was only about

12. There were people both older and younger than me. They have got that

appeal. It goes throughout generations. Best band ever. 50

years on, people still paying tribute. Lynda is helping to collect

people's stories about the Beatles for a special book. Denise Hepke is

one of those who came to share her memories. I was at the ballroom on

the Saturday afternoon. The Beatles came over the speaker, and that was

it. We thought they were black. They had that sort of lovely Motown

sound. I was hooked on them. When we saw them, we realise that they were

something brand`new. The tribute act may not have been the real thing but

the music reminded people what they loved about the band. Those who came

to mark the anniversary have no doubt the songs will keep people

singing and dancing for another fifty years to come.

On the ticket it said that the price was six and six. Young people. A

recap of the national and regional headline: The couple suspected of

holding three women as slaves are named ` they belonged to an extreme

communist group. The new legal`high drugs ruining young people's lives.

Police say they're almost powerless to stop the supply. Tomorrow's

weather: Any fog patches clearing then all parts dry and bright with

good spells of sunshine. Maximum temperature five Celsius. And on the

subject of legal highs, Jack says he has not tried them but most friends

who have. His advice is listen to parents and helplines. An anonymous

text, I don't go one day at school without hearing about drugs.

Completely normal. It is completely awful and I will never try it. That

is a good message. Thank you. Another anonymous message, my son

changed into a paranoid, bad tempered child because the drugs are

so addictive. Thankfully he has come of them and turned his life around.

Good night.
