:01:07. > :01:12.Good evening. The minister in charge of developing Britain's cities has

:01:13. > :01:16.told BBC Look North that Hull is really motoring despite a new report

:01:17. > :01:20.which shows the city is being left behind in the economic recovery. The

:01:21. > :01:27.report from Centre for Cities says Hull has missed out on investment

:01:28. > :01:30.and growth in recent years. But the Government Minister Greg Clark says

:01:31. > :01:33.jobs and opportunities are being created. In a moment, we'll be

:01:34. > :01:36.hearing from Mr Clark, but first, our Business Correspondent Paul

:01:37. > :01:42.Murphy has been looking at the report.

:01:43. > :01:45.What does it say? Peter, today's report claims many

:01:46. > :01:48.northern cities are being left behind in the UK recovery. That for

:01:49. > :01:52.every one public sector job created in London, two are lost in other

:01:53. > :01:56.parts of the country. That the average weekly wage in Hull is

:01:57. > :01:58.nearly half of what it is in London. The Centre for Cities believes it's

:01:59. > :02:12.time governments started giving greater priority to the North.

:02:13. > :02:16.Give cities more powers and responsibilities so they can affect

:02:17. > :02:20.their places more, give them more control over services and budgets so

:02:21. > :02:23.they can spend on the things that matter to them and their people. In

:02:24. > :02:27.some ways, give them some of the powers that we see London has had

:02:28. > :02:31.for the last decade or so. There are some positives though. The report

:02:32. > :02:35.says Grimsby has some of the highest number of start`up businesses in the

:02:36. > :02:37.UK. I've been to see one of them. This is an unusual start`up

:02:38. > :02:52.business. But it is a success. He teaches a forum of street gymnastics

:02:53. > :02:57.cold parkour. I wanted to find something that I wanted to do. You

:02:58. > :03:01.have to find something engaging to do if you are working. Why is

:03:02. > :03:08.Grimsby a hotbed of new business? In the town, they claim the business

:03:09. > :03:13.support network is second to none. I think the difference we have had is

:03:14. > :03:16.that if you are sitting at home in Grimsby, wanting to start a

:03:17. > :03:21.business, all you have to do is pick up a phone and you will get a

:03:22. > :03:24.meeting with someone who will encourage you and ease you through

:03:25. > :03:31.some of the challenges of starting a business. The report's overview of

:03:32. > :03:36.the local economy is mixed. But some believe we are turning the corner.

:03:37. > :03:45.We are waiting for some big investments to come along. Things

:03:46. > :03:58.are going in the right direction. The regional growth fund is one way

:03:59. > :04:03.that companies like this one in Hull are trying to compete with the rest

:04:04. > :04:09.of the country. These are desirable fashion accessories. People look at

:04:10. > :04:17.manufacturers that can do that kind of leather goods. They want quality,

:04:18. > :04:22.handmade leather goods. It is only a few weeks since the government to's

:04:23. > :04:27.city deal gave more power and influence to the region, but

:04:28. > :04:36.today's report says more must be done.

:04:37. > :04:40.I've been talking to the Minister for Cities, Greg Clark, and asked

:04:41. > :04:54.him why Hull is missing out on growth and investment? It isn't. In

:04:55. > :04:58.the most recent figures for the last year, the fall in unemployment in

:04:59. > :05:01.Hull is one of the biggest in the country. Actually rivalling London.

:05:02. > :05:04.I got the impression that Hull has got momentum behind it. I got the

:05:05. > :05:08.impression that we need 16,500 jobs just for the city to get to the

:05:09. > :05:12.national average of employment. Don't get me wrong, Hull as well as

:05:13. > :05:15.some of the other cities across the country have started some way back

:05:16. > :05:19.for many decades now and we are doing everything we can to drive

:05:20. > :05:23.that forward. Last time I was in Hull just before Christmas, I signed

:05:24. > :05:26.a city deal to invest in skills to make sure that the jobs being

:05:27. > :05:30.created will be filled by people locally. But for every public sector

:05:31. > :05:33.job created in London, two are lost in Hull. We don't want to be bottom

:05:34. > :05:36.of the employment league tables. Hull is not bottom of the employment

:05:37. > :05:40.league table. The most recent figures show that Hull is really

:05:41. > :05:44.motoring when it comes to job creation. There's a big reduction in

:05:45. > :05:49.unemployment in Hull. Why doesn't it feel like that? Why will people be

:05:50. > :05:53.shouting at the telly as they watch you say that? Everyone knows that

:05:54. > :05:56.Hull, for many years now, has had and has been behind other places in

:05:57. > :06:00.the country. But equally, I know from my frequent visits to the city

:06:01. > :06:10.over recent years that there is a sense of greater optimism. Jobs are

:06:11. > :06:15.being created, we have seen that. They also talk in this report about

:06:16. > :06:18.the brain drain. If you are a young graduate, you leave Hull University,

:06:19. > :06:23.you can't get a job in this city, you go to London and that is why it

:06:24. > :06:27.is happening. It is not true that you can't get a job in the city. If

:06:28. > :06:30.you talk to some of the engineering businesses in the area, their order

:06:31. > :06:34.books are starting to fill and one of the reasons that the City Deal

:06:35. > :06:38.was about investing in skills is to ensure that as people get jobs,

:06:39. > :06:41.other people come in behind them that have the skills that are needed

:06:42. > :06:53.to take up the opportunities that they are. `` that are there. It is

:06:54. > :06:56.important to invest for the future and this City Deal that was agreed

:06:57. > :06:59.following proposals made by leaders, not just in Hull, but across the

:07:00. > :07:03.Humber, from councils and businesses from both sides of the Humber,

:07:04. > :07:13.saying this is what is needed. The government backed that.

:07:14. > :07:26.Thank you. The ministers saying that whole is motoring, and that you can

:07:27. > :07:30.get a job here. `` Hull. We'd like to hear your views on this story.

:07:31. > :07:34.What's your experience of Hull's economy? Is it on the up, as the

:07:35. > :07:42.Minister says, or are jobs and new businesses hard to come by?

:07:43. > :07:51.In a moment. Why hospitals hope that letting patients rate their doctor

:07:52. > :07:55.will improve care. The Red Arrows have cut back on the

:07:56. > :07:59.number of displays they perform to try and ease pressure on the team

:08:00. > :08:02.following the death of one of its pilots. Flight Lieutenant Sean

:08:03. > :08:05.Cunningham was killed when his ejection seat went off as his

:08:06. > :08:09.aircraft was on the ground at RAF Scampton two years ago. Today at an

:08:10. > :08:11.inquest into his death, the Ministry of Defence outlined what lessons

:08:12. > :08:17.have been learnt. Caroline Bilton reports.

:08:18. > :08:22.This was the man who came to speak on behalf of the MOD. He would set

:08:23. > :08:25.out just what had changed at RAF Scampton following the death of

:08:26. > :08:28.Flight Lieutenant Sean Cunningham two years ago. The inquest here at

:08:29. > :08:31.Lincoln's Cathedral Centre has over the last three weeks heard criticism

:08:32. > :08:37.of how the team operates, how staffing was worringly low, training

:08:38. > :08:41.was poor and timetables tight. The MOD says it has addressed all of

:08:42. > :08:46.the 59 recommendations made in the official service inquiry. Staffing

:08:47. > :08:49.has changed. Red Arrows displays have reduced by 20% in an effort to

:08:50. > :08:52.reduce pressure on the team. Engineering manpower has increased

:08:53. > :08:56.by 25% after it was found the squadron was understaffed by 40

:08:57. > :08:59.people. Five new training courses have been introduced and the seat

:09:00. > :09:02.firing handle on the ejection seat has been redesigned, as has the

:09:03. > :09:05.crucial nut and bolt that prevented Sean's parachute from deploying.

:09:06. > :09:17.They are currently undergoing trials. Sean Cunningham's family say

:09:18. > :09:21.they want to make sure the safety of other servicemen and women is

:09:22. > :09:27.protected in the future. It's hoped today's recommendations will go some

:09:28. > :09:30.way to achieving that. The coroner has now heard all the evidence in

:09:31. > :09:34.this case. He will now spend the next two days going through all of

:09:35. > :09:38.that and he says he expects to be able to conclude earlier than first

:09:39. > :09:45.thought. We are expecting this inquest to end this Wednesday.

:09:46. > :09:49.Humberside Police have launched a murder investigation after the death

:09:50. > :09:53.of a man from multiple stab wounds in Hull. 51`year`old Keith John

:09:54. > :09:56.Opray was found dead at his home on Wareham Close in Bransholme on

:09:57. > :10:01.Saturday. Officers are now appealing for anyone who may have seen him in

:10:02. > :10:06.the days leading up to his death. A 44`year`old man has been arrested

:10:07. > :10:09.and released on bail. A teenager has admitted stabbing his

:10:10. > :10:16.grandparents in their bed while he was high on methadrone. The jury at

:10:17. > :10:19.Hull crown court heard that Irene Dale died in the attack last April.

:10:20. > :10:28.17`year`old Luke Dale denies murder and attempted murder. The case

:10:29. > :10:31.continues. Police say they need help

:10:32. > :10:37.identifying a man who says he does not know who he is. He may have lost

:10:38. > :10:46.his memory because of some sort of traumatic experience. He gave his

:10:47. > :10:48.name as Tony Thorpe. The Football Association says it

:10:49. > :10:51.will read the referee's report before taking any action against a

:10:52. > :10:55.Goole Town player who confronted fans after being sent off. The club

:10:56. > :10:59.already sacked captain Karl Colley after he stormed into the stands and

:11:00. > :11:02.swung a punch at hecklers. Manager David Holdsworth has also left the

:11:03. > :11:10.club to be replaced by Curtis Woodhouse, as Crispin Rolfe reports.

:11:11. > :11:13.Sacked for losing his head. The moment Goole AFC captain Karl Colley

:11:14. > :11:24.confronted a heckler, seconds after being sent off against Coalville.

:11:25. > :11:29.The man restraining him is now the new manager after David Holdsworth

:11:30. > :11:32.left the club. Curtis Woodhouse has been a professional boxer in his

:11:33. > :11:36.time but won't want any more fisticuffs when the two teams meet

:11:37. > :11:38.again in Coalville in less than a week.

:11:39. > :11:42.He was being taunted, but having said that, that is no excuse. It is

:11:43. > :11:46.part and parcel of the game. You are going to get abuse from fans, home

:11:47. > :11:48.and away, he should just have walked straight down the tunnel out of the

:11:49. > :11:59.way. Today, the Football Association

:12:00. > :12:03.said... Goole lost this game 3`0. They will

:12:04. > :12:14.hope their former captain's actions will not lose them more than a poor

:12:15. > :12:17.score line. Hospital patients in East Yorkshire

:12:18. > :12:20.are being asked to rate their doctor's performance in the hope

:12:21. > :12:22.that it will highlight areas for improvement. Last month, 3,500

:12:23. > :12:25.people gave feedback on their experience and hospital managers say

:12:26. > :12:31.the ratings are already showing results. More from our health

:12:32. > :12:36.correspondent Vicky Johnson. When booking a hotel, many of us

:12:37. > :12:40.will go online to see how it rates. Now patients are able to do the same

:12:41. > :12:43.about hospitals and doctors. It's a survey...

:12:44. > :12:50.Last month, 3500 patients completed these short questionnaires at Hull

:12:51. > :12:53.and East Yorkshire's hospitals. Feedback forms in general are only

:12:54. > :12:57.going to give some sort of advice to this hospital how they could treat

:12:58. > :13:04.people better. It gives them some idea on how long you have waited.

:13:05. > :13:07.Every day, Rachel Pearce sifts through scores of patient feedback

:13:08. > :13:15.forms and online comments, most are positive, but it is the negative

:13:16. > :13:17.ones which prompt change. One of the things patients were negatively

:13:18. > :13:22.putting on feedback forms was that they never see Ward sisters. Ward

:13:23. > :13:27.sisters now have their own clinics where patients can speak to them

:13:28. > :13:30.along with their relatives. For surgeons like this man, the

:13:31. > :13:34.extension of the feedback scheme will have real benefits for patients

:13:35. > :13:38.and their doctors. I think patients will be able to

:13:39. > :13:41.choose the doctor that most matches their needs. Also, those doctors

:13:42. > :13:49.that are consistently not very good, the whole point is that they need to

:13:50. > :13:53.have evidence for that. Human nature says that we all think we are above

:13:54. > :13:58.average at what we do but we're not. Some of us are good and some of us

:13:59. > :14:00.are not very good. I think this will raise standards.

:14:01. > :14:04.The vast majority of patients do leave positive comments about their

:14:05. > :14:07.hospital experiences. It is hoped by broadening this scheme and

:14:08. > :14:10.encouraging more to take part, it will help drive up standards even

:14:11. > :14:15.further. Patients here have already shown they like leaving the

:14:16. > :14:19.feedback. More than 30,000 of them have done so in the last year. It is

:14:20. > :14:33.hoped that more can be persuaded to give their opinions on those who

:14:34. > :14:42.treat and care for them. Thank you for watching. Still

:14:43. > :14:54.ahead. I am here to see in Scunthorpe United can beat third

:14:55. > :14:56.place Fleetwood town. And the celebrity dancers who swapped their

:14:57. > :15:01.sequins for overalls to support a BBC charity.

:15:02. > :15:23.Some pictures are just coming in. It is turning colder.

:15:24. > :15:35.Did you have a nice weekend? Did you manage to get to bingo?

:15:36. > :15:37.Why don't you just read the weather forecast?

:15:38. > :15:42.You should try it, you would like it.

:15:43. > :15:53.It looks and unsettled and changeable week, dominated by low

:15:54. > :16:07.pressure. A cold snap on Wednesday night. We have not had too bad an

:16:08. > :16:11.afternoon. Some showers this morning, but most of us have been

:16:12. > :16:13.break this afternoon. But the scattered showers will return from

:16:14. > :16:22.the Southwest this evening and overnight. Some further west might

:16:23. > :16:29.be on the short side. Perhaps a bit of heel. `` Sharp said, and perhaps

:16:30. > :16:48.a bit of hahil. It is a breezy and unsettled day

:16:49. > :16:53.tomorrow. Rather cloudy at times. Bands of showers pushing in from

:16:54. > :17:01.their Southwest. The further west you go, the more frequent and heavy

:17:02. > :17:10.doors showers will be. Those temperatures, feeling quite chilly

:17:11. > :17:16.and fresh long the coast. Highs of 6`7 degrees. Wednesday looks quite

:17:17. > :17:26.wet at first. Thursday, a little bit colder. On Friday, brighter at

:17:27. > :17:42.first, but clouding over later. From Mike. Has Paul shaved his

:17:43. > :17:45.eyebrows? Actually, the same thing. They are falling out like the rest

:17:46. > :17:49.of their here. It could be the strain of working

:17:50. > :17:56.with me. See you tomorrow.

:17:57. > :18:01.A meeting is taking place in Lincoln around now to decide whether to

:18:02. > :18:04.spend an extra ?80,000 to continue work on one of the city's historic

:18:05. > :18:08.landmarks. The Newport Arch dates back to the third century and has

:18:09. > :18:10.already received a ?60,000 Heritage grant for repairs. But structural

:18:11. > :18:14.engineers have discovered that more work is needed to allow traffic to

:18:15. > :18:20.continue driving through it. Jessica Lane reports.

:18:21. > :18:23.The only Roman arch in England which still has traffic driving through.

:18:24. > :18:26.But there are concerns that if an extra ?80,000 isn't found, the arch

:18:27. > :18:32.could eventually become unsafe and the traffic stopped, causing major

:18:33. > :18:35.problems for local businesses. People don't stop immediately, but

:18:36. > :18:39.they do see things in shop windows and are then liable to come back

:18:40. > :18:45.another day. If we have got no traffic, we have no customers. In

:18:46. > :18:48.the past, it has been disastrous for us. Takings have gone down

:18:49. > :18:56.tremendously. We had the road closed off for the water board once, and

:18:57. > :18:59.again for repaving the area. The Newport Arch has been standing

:19:00. > :19:03.since the third century and has been damaged by cold winters and general

:19:04. > :19:06.corrosion over the years. ?60,000 was awarded by English Heritage last

:19:07. > :19:12.year, but when that work started, more problems were found. Back in

:19:13. > :19:16.1964, this lorry crashed into the arch leaving the road closed for

:19:17. > :19:19.months. It's thought that was when cement based mortar was used on

:19:20. > :19:27.repairs. That now needs to be replaced with lime mortar. English

:19:28. > :19:42.Heritage said... The council leader agrees.

:19:43. > :19:46.It's not going to affect day`to`day spending on services. It is an

:19:47. > :19:49.essential repair which we must do and make sure we look after a hugely

:19:50. > :19:56.important part of Lincoln's landscape.

:19:57. > :20:00.The City of Lincoln Council says closing the road would be a last

:20:01. > :20:03.resort. It's discussing the money at a meeting this evening. If approved,

:20:04. > :20:09.they will work out a new timescale for the repairs to get this Roman

:20:10. > :20:12.arch right up to date. Thanks to everyone who contacted us

:20:13. > :20:15.after our report on how more than ?150,000 will be spent on

:20:16. > :21:09.translation services for foreign workers in Lincolnshire.

:21:10. > :21:19.There was a huge response to that. Hull City will travel to Brighton in

:21:20. > :21:24.the fifth round of the FA Cup ` their reward for beating Southend

:21:25. > :21:28.United. Tomorrow, the club is back in Premier League action at Crystal

:21:29. > :21:30.Palace. But the football action begins tonight as League Two leaders

:21:31. > :21:33.Scunthorpe United face third placed Fleetwood Town. Our sports reporter

:21:34. > :21:41.Simon Clark is there. Simon, what kind of form are Scunthorpe in ahead

:21:42. > :21:53.of this game? This is Russ Wilcox's 12 games in

:21:54. > :22:00.charge. Hull city and Scunthorpe United played in Essex on Saturday.

:22:01. > :22:06.Let's head to Dagenham to see how Scunthorpe got on.

:22:07. > :22:09.This was a match where two points slipped through the fingers. United

:22:10. > :22:12.stormed into a three goal lead at Dagenham. Dion Burton then made it

:22:13. > :22:20.two for the Iron before being injured. The evergreen Paul Hayes

:22:21. > :22:22.scored to make it 3`0. In ever worsening conditions, Dagenham

:22:23. > :22:34.fought back, scoring two in quick succession. Minutes from the end,

:22:35. > :22:38.players retired due to a fierce storm. Back on they came and Luke

:22:39. > :22:41.Norris clinched a draw close to the end leaving the table very tight and

:22:42. > :22:45.United in need of another win today. Down the road, Hull City were making

:22:46. > :22:49.light work of heavy conditions at Southend United. After surviving a

:22:50. > :22:53.couple of scares, Matty Friars opened the scoring. The striker

:22:54. > :23:00.showed he was back in business with another at the death. City now face

:23:01. > :23:04.Brighton and Hove in round five. We are in the last 16, it gives us a

:23:05. > :23:12.chance to progress to the quarterfinal. That would be terrific

:23:13. > :23:16.if we could get there. We will approach it in the same way as we

:23:17. > :23:20.have the other cup ties. Tomorrow, the Tigers go to Crystal

:23:21. > :23:23.Palace with new boy Shane Long in to make his debut.

:23:24. > :23:31.It is a team that comes up every year and you think they will do
