:00:00. > :01:12.the week. That is all from us, so it is goodbye from me and we can now

:01:13. > :01:19.Live in one say they fear they will become England's forgotten

:01:20. > :01:23.community. On the coast the floods have changed the landscape beyond

:01:24. > :01:27.recognition, and in a few minutes we will have a report from Spurn Point.

:01:28. > :01:32.First Emma has been finding out how some people who have spent the last

:01:33. > :01:34.month out of their homes have been coping.

:01:35. > :01:39.Boston was hit hard by the tidal surge at the beginning of December,

:01:40. > :01:44.with 500 homes affected. A month on, and flood victims want

:01:45. > :01:48.financial help. Many have signed a petition asking to be exempt from

:01:49. > :01:52.paying council tax. Karen was one of then, she is still struggling to get

:01:53. > :01:57.back on her feet. Don't know whenever I am going to get straight,

:01:58. > :02:01.because you know, it is just money, all the time, trying to replace

:02:02. > :02:06.thing. It is not like it is going to be for a couple of weeks. It will be

:02:07. > :02:11.month before they sort it out. But the council say they can only afford

:02:12. > :02:16.to reduce council tax by 25% for up to 12 months with a one month

:02:17. > :02:20.exemption, and that only applies to unfurnished and unoccupied

:02:21. > :02:24.properties. Here in East Yorkshire this house

:02:25. > :02:27.was three feet deep in water. Step inside and the devastation is clear

:02:28. > :02:33.to see. As you can see this is our kitchen,

:02:34. > :02:38.when the water came in it came to here and it rushed through the

:02:39. > :02:41.house. It overtook each room. Barry and Caroline's home was badly

:02:42. > :02:44.flooded after the tidal surge, since then they have been living in a

:02:45. > :02:49.caravan. They say it is the forgotten village

:02:50. > :02:55.because the leaf effort has been concentrated on the towns affected.

:02:56. > :02:59.. It sounds dreadful, they save the towns because there is more houses

:03:00. > :03:03.damaged, which is natural, but you know, the villages are going to get

:03:04. > :03:09.hit. It wasn't just Barry and Caroline's home that was flooded on

:03:10. > :03:12.the 5th December. Most of the houses in this village were under water,

:03:13. > :03:16.and the majority of the people here have had to move out.

:03:17. > :03:21.Vicky and her family are also crammed into a caravan and they too

:03:22. > :03:25.feel more help is needed. We have no seen that much presence of people,

:03:26. > :03:29.and you know, it is mainly the bigger towns and places like that

:03:30. > :03:37.that are being, you know, people are going to see. There is not much been

:03:38. > :03:41.said about us or other villages. In North Lincolnshire 63 families

:03:42. > :03:46.were flooded out and still haven't returned to their homes.

:03:47. > :03:50.In in one place people say the floods have brought the community

:03:51. > :03:53.together. There is a local appeal asking for people to donate

:03:54. > :03:58.furniture for those who have lost theirs It the community has pulling

:03:59. > :04:03.to, it has been an amazing group of people helping out, providing meals.

:04:04. > :04:06.The farmers have been excellent, helping with tractor, helping people

:04:07. > :04:10.with drive, and the wider community as well. But it will take more than

:04:11. > :04:14.community spirit for many flood victims to get their lives back on

:04:15. > :04:21.track. They could be out of their homes for nine months.

:04:22. > :04:28.Some communities who feel forgotten, we would like to know what you feel

:04:29. > :04:31.about this one. Should councils be offering financial help or are they

:04:32. > :04:36.doing as much as they can. Is it what you would expect if you live in

:04:37. > :04:41.certain area, close to rivers and the sea? Yous on this

:04:42. > :04:52.`` areas. `` your thoughts on this

:04:53. > :04:59.The high tides of the last four weeks have changed the shape of the

:05:00. > :05:02.East Yorkshire coastline beyond recognition. Spurn Point has become

:05:03. > :05:11.an island, which means that there are new challenges for the local

:05:12. > :05:15.emergency services. Across the water lies Spurn Point. The sea is on the

:05:16. > :05:19.left of this picture, the Humber on the right, flows into it. And this

:05:20. > :05:24.is the road. Like everything else, dumped in a heap by the tidal surge.

:05:25. > :05:30.Never seen anything like it in my life. Dave is in charge of the

:05:31. > :05:34.lifeboat station, which operates at Spurn Head. The operational side of

:05:35. > :05:39.the boat, no effect. But it is everything else. The living, the

:05:40. > :05:44.shop, the rubbish, the fuel, the electricity, the water. This is what

:05:45. > :05:51.it looked like before the surge. But the damage inflicted last month now

:05:52. > :05:57.means even small high tides, as soon on this recent radar are cutting it

:05:58. > :06:02.in two. The Ordnance Survey has told Look North it may have to consider

:06:03. > :06:09.redrawing its maps, a familiar landmark has been changed beyond

:06:10. > :06:16.recognition. Spurn Point appears in geography text book, in CD, it is in

:06:17. > :06:20.children's exam, it is a recognisable feature. What will

:06:21. > :06:25.happen now? We have to change our ideas about the way Spurn looks and

:06:26. > :06:29.the way it operates. The damage is still being assessed, but it having

:06:30. > :06:34.big implications for those looking after the safety of Europe's busiest

:06:35. > :06:39.shipping lane. For the lifeboat staff and the pilots access to the

:06:40. > :06:45.end of the peninsula is now impossible. But both are determined

:06:46. > :06:53.to keep their services going. They are doing this by relocating

:06:54. > :06:56.some crew to Grimsby docks I have Al always been a positive person, I

:06:57. > :07:00.look at this as a challenge. I don't think we will beat nature but we

:07:01. > :07:04.might claw a bit back. Those who make their living here are

:07:05. > :07:10.determined not to abandon it. Though they are `` though their battle to

:07:11. > :07:15.stay in control is looking tougher than ever.

:07:16. > :07:21.Some incredible pictures there of Spurn Point. Within the last few

:07:22. > :07:25.moments, a police doner has been removed from an east Hull street

:07:26. > :07:29.after bomb disposal officers were called in to investigate the

:07:30. > :07:33.discovery of an explosive substance at a house. It is the second time in

:07:34. > :07:37.two days that people on Kilnsea Grove have been asked to leave their

:07:38. > :07:42.homes for safety reasons. Evacuated for the second time in two

:07:43. > :07:48.days. Kilnsea Grove in east Hull a no go area after the discovery of

:07:49. > :07:53.yet more of an unknown but explosive substance. Yesterday, reported to

:07:54. > :07:58.police. Today, as they investigated Sunday's find, the discovery or more

:07:59. > :08:02.chemical substances. They don't believe it is connected with

:08:03. > :08:06.Terrorism Acts within the country or outside of the country, but we are

:08:07. > :08:12.looking into that. I would like to reassure the public that it appears

:08:13. > :08:18.to be an isolated incident. So this afternoon a rare sight for

:08:19. > :08:23.any residential area, bomb disposal experts at work. This one of three

:08:24. > :08:27.trips to and from a home here It has been a scary for family and friends

:08:28. > :08:32.round the estate. I can't believe something like on a residential

:08:33. > :08:36.estate like this going on. It is upsetting for everybody.

:08:37. > :08:40.Especially with litten ones, families with little one, the main

:08:41. > :08:43.thing is getting down to the nitty gritty. Everybody is safe. Over the

:08:44. > :08:46.last 36 hours this is what people have had to cope with. After

:08:47. > :08:51.Humberside Police were called by a member of the public at three

:08:52. > :08:55.o'clock on Sunday morning, by 9.30 homes were evacuated and three

:08:56. > :08:59.arrests had been made including a 15`year`old boy. At 7.30 that

:09:00. > :09:04.evening Kilnsea Grove was re`opened, after officers said that the

:09:05. > :09:09.substance had been made safe. But by noon today, that cordon was back.

:09:10. > :09:15.For Steve Candy and his wife Jane, it has been a shock. You expect that

:09:16. > :09:21.sort of thing when you are Wray y the army but not on a residential

:09:22. > :09:23.street. Once we found out what happened it was a case of get

:09:24. > :09:28.everybody out. There is only the three of us, my husband, my son, we

:09:29. > :09:31.got out and went to my mothers who doesn't live far away. Tomorrow the

:09:32. > :09:36.hope that these scenes won't be repeated for a third day in a row,

:09:37. > :09:41.football team have now been released on bail, but police investigations

:09:42. > :09:45.into what has been found here will continue.

:09:46. > :09:50.The cordon has been removed. Does this mean people are returning to

:09:51. > :09:56.their homes? They have started to do so, as you say, literally the cordon

:09:57. > :10:01.has been brought down since we have been on air, the police happy these

:10:02. > :10:05.homes are safe and it comes after some considerable disruption to

:10:06. > :10:09.residents here, as you can see a bit of a party spirit at the moment but

:10:10. > :10:13.for most, it is a question of getting back to normality which they

:10:14. > :10:18.have found difficult to do, after this incident more or less repeated

:10:19. > :10:25.what happened through the whole of Sunday. Thank you.

:10:26. > :10:29.That is a lively Kilnsea Grove. A NHS tribunal has been hearing how a

:10:30. > :10:32.hospital worker posted offensive and inappropriate comments about his

:10:33. > :10:37.patients and colleagues on a social networking site. Paul Nam who worked

:10:38. > :10:41.in the operating theatres at Lincoln County told the hearing he felt

:10:42. > :10:45.embarrassed and ashamed about the remarks. He was suspended in 2012

:10:46. > :10:50.but the Health and Care Professions Council will decide if he is still

:10:51. > :10:53.fit to practise. Football team have appeared in

:10:54. > :10:59.court, charged with the murder of a father of two from Hull. Steven

:11:00. > :11:04.Herbert was attacked on Trafalgar Street on New Year's Day and died

:11:05. > :11:09.from his injuries. They continue to grow. Floral

:11:10. > :11:12.tributes for the father of two, killed on New Year's Day.

:11:13. > :11:18.34`year`old Steven Herbert died after stepping into stop a fight on

:11:19. > :11:23.Beverley Road. Today, three people appeared before magistrates charged

:11:24. > :11:28.with his murder. 22`year`old Samuel Jordan, 21`year`old soul how many

:11:29. > :11:33.Fridays and 23`year`old Tiffany Clark from Hull. They nodded their

:11:34. > :11:37.heads to confirm their address, and were remanded in custody. They will

:11:38. > :11:40.appear before Hull Crown Court tomorrow. Detectives are still

:11:41. > :11:46.trying to trace the driver of a taxi who picked up the defendants here on

:11:47. > :11:49.Strand Close at five past six on the morning of New Year's Day. They

:11:50. > :11:56.believe they may hold vital information that could help them

:11:57. > :12:00.with their inquiries. Drivers using the motorway face

:12:01. > :12:06.weeks of night`time closures as repair work is carried out. From

:12:07. > :12:10.tonight until March a section of the M180 will be closed from 8pm to 6am

:12:11. > :12:15.between junctions two and three. Diversions will be in place. Plans

:12:16. > :12:21.for a large windfarm project off the Lincolnshire coast have been scaled

:12:22. > :12:25.down. RWE says it is reducing the amount of energy produced at the

:12:26. > :12:29.site which was approved last year. It means a proposed sub`station at

:12:30. > :12:35.Bicker Fen near Boston won't need to be as big as first thought.

:12:36. > :12:40.It is 18 minutes to 7.00 here. Thank you for watching Look North. Still

:12:41. > :12:45.ahead. Mixed Fortunes for teams from our area in the weekend's FA Cup

:12:46. > :12:53.games, and calls for Humberside Airport to be renamed after this

:12:54. > :13:04.inventor. Now, let us look at the picture for

:13:05. > :13:09.tonight. Another picture tomorrow night round about the same time.

:13:10. > :13:14.Good evening young man. Of more interest in Lincolnshire, I forgot

:13:15. > :13:19.to pension it Norman by hall was the driest place anywhere in the UK and

:13:20. > :13:26.Lincolnshire was the driest County. You there? I am still awake. I was

:13:27. > :13:32.thinking about what I was going to have for tea.

:13:33. > :13:37.Let us look at the headline for tomorrow. Windy but there should be

:13:38. > :13:41.a good deal of fine weather with sunshine and as we saw throughout

:13:42. > :13:47.December, it is a very unsettled set up. We get a lot of shelter and any

:13:48. > :13:50.showers will be fleeting, as they come across the region. We have

:13:51. > :13:54.escape most of them today, you can see most are in the west, one or two

:13:55. > :13:59.got through but a few places have stayed dry. We start this evening on

:14:00. > :14:04.a windy note, but it a mostly dry one, one or two showers creeping

:14:05. > :14:11.through but they don't get any further east than the wouldingses of

:14:12. > :14:16.Yorkshire `` wolds. Lowest temperatures six or seven, seven

:14:17. > :14:23.Celsius is 45 degrees Fahrenheit. So the sun will rise in the morning at

:14:24. > :14:27.8.15. Your next high water time in Skegness 10.29 in the morning.

:14:28. > :14:31.So it is another windy day tomorrow, and there will be one or two showers

:14:32. > :14:36.pushing in from the south`west, but a lot of fine, dry weather, any

:14:37. > :14:42.showers will be fleeting, we should see some decent spells of sunshine.

:14:43. > :14:47.Another windy day, but another day of above average temperatures. Let

:14:48. > :14:51.us look at the maximums tomorrow. Nine or ten Celsius, the average is

:14:52. > :14:57.nearer seven. That is not bad for the time of year. Wednesday, then,

:14:58. > :15:01.sunny spell, again a risk of a snuer, it may cloud over at times

:15:02. > :15:05.but a similar day on Wednesday, Thursday looks dry and so does fry,

:15:06. > :15:10.although there could be patchy outbreaks of rain on Friday night.

:15:11. > :15:17.But all in all not too bad a week to come. Just a few showers.

:15:18. > :15:26.Sometimes people think we make up the e`mails. Mike Jackson says he

:15:27. > :15:34.can't get a one day forecast right, why does he bother with a five day

:15:35. > :15:41.forecast. I have not got one wrong this year! It is the 6th. Shopper

:15:42. > :15:46.says new footpaths are making them feel ill to the extent they could

:15:47. > :15:51.trigger epileptic fits. The new walkways have been laid as part of

:15:52. > :15:58.an upgrade on Freeman Street. It has cost more than ?1 million to

:15:59. > :16:02.generate this area. A huge part was spent on the footpaths but according

:16:03. > :16:08.to shoppers the patterns are making them feel ill When I am walking down

:16:09. > :16:15.here, I feel suddenly feel sick, and I feel as if I am going out. A waste

:16:16. > :16:19.of money. They dazzle you, the black`and`white is all right, but, I

:16:20. > :16:23.would rather have smooth paths to walk on. It is hoped the upgrade

:16:24. > :16:28.will reconnect the town centre with the docks area, but now a councillor

:16:29. > :16:35.who also has epilepsy is worried the patterns could even trigger fits. To

:16:36. > :16:41.me, it could be potentially a trigger for somebody who has

:16:42. > :16:45.photo`sensitive epilepsy, and not to consult with people who have got

:16:46. > :16:51.professional advice, I think was a mistake from the council. Christine

:16:52. > :16:54.Thompson says she has been made ill, free from migraines from 20 years

:16:55. > :16:59.she says the patterns have brought on two four day long attacks in a

:17:00. > :17:04.month. Since they have done them I have had terrible day, really awful

:17:05. > :17:08.and ended up at the doctor, and I just don't go into free nan street

:17:09. > :17:15.as much as I used to `` Freeman Street as much as I used to. The

:17:16. > :17:20.zig`zags what you see, that is how it affected you and I have been

:17:21. > :17:24.really poorly. Council says it is taking the concerns seriously. We

:17:25. > :17:29.are concerned here about things like that, and I would urge people to

:17:30. > :17:33.look to the longer term. The paving is in its newest possible state, it

:17:34. > :17:38.should start to settle down in the period of time once it gets a bet of

:17:39. > :17:42.weather and the pattern will become less vivid. So hopefully any nausea

:17:43. > :17:46.should subside. The main work here has now been

:17:47. > :17:51.completed, the council says it is not possible to relay the paving,

:17:52. > :17:55.but experts have told me the patterns are unlikely to trig er

:17:56. > :17:59.help tick seizures. Nevertheless, some shoppers say they are still

:18:00. > :18:06.causing them problems, enough to keep some of them away.

:18:07. > :18:10.Now after Friday's programme many people got in touch about the naming

:18:11. > :18:15.of people charged with drink`driving by Lincolnshire Police before they

:18:16. > :18:19.have gone to court. The force says publishing name tons web site and

:18:20. > :18:22.social media isn't about shaming people, but is designed as a

:18:23. > :18:27.deterrent to prevent accidents. The police have come in for criticism

:18:28. > :18:30.for naming people before they have been found guilty. There were many

:18:31. > :18:35.messages on this story. Thank you for all of them. We read and

:18:36. > :18:39.listened to them all. Just a few then tonight. Anita in Grantham said

:18:40. > :18:43.I was led to believe that you are innocent until proven guilty. If the

:18:44. > :18:49.police are starting to do this with drinking and driving offence, where

:18:50. > :18:53.will it end? Paul is in Skegness, he says it a good thing to name and

:18:54. > :18:58.shame drink`drivers, if you blow over 35, you are over the limit, if

:18:59. > :19:04.you go to court or not. And Francaises "Well done the

:19:05. > :19:08.police, if they failed the roadside breath test they are guilty. It is

:19:09. > :19:10.about time they were shamed.". Thank you.

:19:11. > :19:16.A poet from Lincolnshire has challenged the former Home Secretary

:19:17. > :19:18.David Blunkett on comments he made about Roma migrants. Benjamin

:19:19. > :19:25.Zephaniah who lives near Spalding has been meeting people from the

:19:26. > :19:34.Roma community and in Mr Blunkett's constituency. He. If I meant to say

:19:35. > :19:39.there would be riots I would have used the word riot. I have always

:19:40. > :19:43.said things as I see them, but you look back and think, well, in

:19:44. > :19:48.retrospect, I probably wouldn't have said that. Because I really do need

:19:49. > :19:51.to ensure that this community pulls together and working tot. David

:19:52. > :19:57.Blunkett talking to Benjamin Zephaniah. You can see that report

:19:58. > :20:03.on the Roma community on Inside Out this evening, here on BBC One in 40

:20:04. > :20:07.minutes time. The two men who have managed Hull

:20:08. > :20:13.City in the Premier League will face each other in the Fourth Round of

:20:14. > :20:21.the FA Cup. The Tigers travel to Southend United who are managed by

:20:22. > :20:27.Phil Brown. The FA Cup third round, it is about sides competing with

:20:28. > :20:35.illustrious opponents, this happened when a Grimsby Town side led

:20:36. > :20:39.Huddersfield Town. Former Scunthorpe Utd player Oliver nor wood

:20:40. > :20:47.equalised. Craig Disley relishing the crowd put his side ahead again.

:20:48. > :20:53.Then, an astonishing fight back with another player making it 2`2 before

:20:54. > :20:57.right at the death, a painful own goal from Aswad Thomas I think we

:20:58. > :21:01.played very well. In the end, I think the best team won. Good

:21:02. > :21:07.performance Even though we lost we played well. We didn't deserve to

:21:08. > :21:12.lose. We deserved to win, didn't we. Going into the last I five minutes

:21:13. > :21:18.of normal time, we were ahead in the game. To end up with not at least a

:21:19. > :21:22.replay is a bit hard to take. Hull City boss Steve Bruce made a host of

:21:23. > :21:28.changes and one scored against Middlesbrough in the first half.

:21:29. > :21:34.Nick Proschwitz made it two and out of the het came south end United. So

:21:35. > :21:39.the Tigers will travel to meet former boss Phil Brown. I went back

:21:40. > :21:44.to a fans' presentation where they wanted to honour me. I thought that

:21:45. > :21:49.wfs nice, the place was full to the rafter, and you know, I was received

:21:50. > :21:55.well last time I went to the KC Stadium. I don't have any axes to

:21:56. > :22:04.grind with any of the fans. Grimsby maybe out of the FA Cup but they are

:22:05. > :22:09.in the FA toy next week. Hull FC have been forced to switch

:22:10. > :22:14.some if fixtures while the pitch is renovated in the summer. Work will

:22:15. > :22:20.begin at the end of May meaning they will play their scheduled home game

:22:21. > :22:24.matches away from the KC. With six months to go until the Tour de

:22:25. > :22:28.France comes to Yorkshire, the woman responsible for bringing the vent to

:22:29. > :22:32.the County has defended the money being spent on it. The race will

:22:33. > :22:36.start in Leeds in June, and ?27 million has been set aside to cover

:22:37. > :22:40.the dost. Organisers say they expect to match the money made when the

:22:41. > :22:46.tour came to Kent for one day seven years ago. That generated about ?90

:22:47. > :22:51.million for the economy and 35 million in publicity value. We have

:22:52. > :22:56.got it for three days, so it should reap well over ?100 million, so 27

:22:57. > :23:01.million for a dividend of 100 million and it is a free vent for

:23:02. > :23:08.millions. Finally tonight do you know who this man is? If campaigners

:23:09. > :23:12.have their way you will. He is John Harrison, a clock maker from North

:23:13. > :23:15.Lincolnshire who back in the 18th century changed the way we navigate

:23:16. > :23:22.round the world. Now a group want him to have his place in history

:23:23. > :23:27.marked by naming Humberside airport after him.

:23:28. > :23:30.For 40 years it has been known as Humberside Airport. But to a history

:23:31. > :23:35.group in North Lincolnshire wants that to change. They want it renamed

:23:36. > :23:40.after this man, John Harry song, a clock maker from Barrow in

:23:41. > :23:46.Lincolnshire, 300 years ago, he changed world travel by discovering

:23:47. > :23:50.a way for ships to use his clocks to work out their position at sea. Now

:23:51. > :23:55.a history group wants to pay tribute by naming Humberside Airport after

:23:56. > :24:00.him. Humberside is outdated, it is disliked, it has negative

:24:01. > :24:04.connotation, John Harrison was a local man who was important to the

:24:05. > :24:09.whole world, and he ought to be recognised as such. But the airport

:24:10. > :24:12.disagree, with huge industries planned for the banks of the Humber,

:24:13. > :24:17.they think it is not the best time to turn their backs on the name In

:24:18. > :24:23.the fullness of time it maybe something we might look at iment let

:24:24. > :24:27.us keep our energies focussed, promoting the airport and making

:24:28. > :24:30.sure companies that want to invest understand our airport is next door

:24:31. > :24:36.to where the investment is taking place. Other airports have taken on

:24:37. > :24:41.names of their region's famous son, take Liverpool's John Lennon or

:24:42. > :24:48.Doncaster's Robin Hood but people seem devied about whether Humberside

:24:49. > :24:53.should follow suit I don't know who he is. I don't see why they should

:24:54. > :24:58.name an airport after him. I am happy with it. He has a school named

:24:59. > :25:02.after him, why not an airport. Campaigners say they would like to

:25:03. > :25:06.see the name of the local clock maker up there, it looks like it

:25:07. > :25:13.will be some time before Humberside Airport is called anything else.

:25:14. > :25:22.What do you think about this one? Anything suggestions? You think the

:25:23. > :25:25.name a good idea, maybe the John Prescott International? Get in

:25:26. > :25:29.touch. Your suggestions for a name of who

:25:30. > :25:34.from the area should be in the title of the airport name. Now a recap of

:25:35. > :25:38.the main headlines. Chancellor's New Year's resolution to reduce the

:25:39. > :25:43.deficit means another 25 billion of cuts on the way, and calls for more

:25:44. > :25:48.financial help for people made homeless by the recent floods.

:25:49. > :25:53.Tomorrow, a snuer, many areas staying dry, again very mild for the

:25:54. > :25:58.time of year in the afternoon, the temperatures getting up to round 10

:25:59. > :26:02.C. And the response on the subject of

:26:03. > :26:08.flooding and do the flood victims need more help. Vanessa says we got

:26:09. > :26:11.badly flooded in North Lincolnshire and lost everything. I will cost

:26:12. > :26:15.hundreds of thousands of pound to repair the damage. Something needs

:26:16. > :26:20.to be done about the flood defence, a mud embankment is not enough.

:26:21. > :26:24.Keith says are these people not insured? We were out of our home for

:26:25. > :26:29.six month, the insurance paid for everything. Do they want everything

:26:30. > :26:36.done for them? There is a big response on this story. Why don't

:26:37. > :26:42.Camelot says John allocate some of the Lottery fund towards helping

:26:43. > :26:48.flood victims. Tracey says Barrow Haven were was affected badly. One

:26:49. > :26:53.resident I know hasn't even been given a skip. Eric says the

:26:54. > :26:58.Government doesn't have any money to spare. This next one, there are many

:26:59. > :27:02.coming in like this. It is from Paul. Isn't it time our Government

:27:03. > :27:07.stopped sending millions in overseas aid when the flood victims

:27:08. > :27:12.desperately need help. Surely we should take care of our own

:27:13. > :27:15.taxpayers first. And finally, I think the councils are doing their

:27:16. > :27:19.best with the money and resources they have. It is a shame for the

:27:20. > :27:23.flood victims but I don't see what else our councils can do. If you

:27:24. > :27:28.were flooded, just before Christmas and you have a story, then, let us

:27:29. > :27:33.know about it or if you have any story you think we should know

:27:34. > :27:39.about. Give us an e`mail. Join me for the radio tomorrow if you can.

:27:40. > :27:42.Plenty to talk about tomorrow lunchtime. Have a nice evening.

:27:43. > :27:54.Enjoy it. Take TOM: # And if there's

:27:55. > :28:14.anybody left in here # That doesn't want

:28:15. > :28:18.to be out there... #
