Thank you. That's all from the BBC News at Six so it's goodbye from me, | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
and Good evening and welcome to BBC Look | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
North. The headlines tonight. A call to regulate free meals and food | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
banks to stop some people taking advantage. I have seen people come | :00:11. | :00:27. | |
in here, with money in their pockets, ?120. | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
A call for improvements ` why cycling in Yorkshire's cities isn't | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
always good for your health. Today there's a call for more cycle | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
lanes like these as figures show the number of casualties on our roads is | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
up by a third. The Tigers' record signing inches | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
Hull City closer to premiership survival. | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
And the blind skier from Lincolnshire hoping for a place on | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
the podium in Sochi. The forecast follows shortly. | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
There are concerns that some people are taking advantage of food banks | :00:59. | :01:08. | |
and free meal services in Hull. Many are independently run by small | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
groups or churches and rely on people's honesty to take only what | :01:12. | :01:17. | |
they need. Now charities are being encouraged to work together and | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
share information to stop misuse and make the system more effective. | :01:21. | :01:28. | |
Sarah Walton reports. A fresh bowl of steaming soup. A | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
welcome sight on a cold day. Every Saturday, the Amazing Grace Church | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
in Hull gives free food to anyone who says they're in need. Not only | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
the alcoholics, the homeless, not only people who are taking drugs. At | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
one point we had somebody who was a student. For some reason he found | :01:47. | :01:54. | |
himself in a difficult situation. It's open to anybody. People say | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
some are taking advantage of that kindness visiting different | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
charities every day so they can save their money for drink and drugs. You | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
hear it all the time. I see people, the same faces going to the soup | :02:07. | :02:16. | |
kitchens where I go. Always the same faces. I see people coming here who | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
have been paid on a Saturday morning and have ?120 in their pocket. There | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
is a church on Princess Avenue and they put bags of clothes out for the | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
homeless. A certain one, he will grab the full bag and then he'll | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
take it to the clothes bank to sell it and then spend the money on booze | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
or whatever he's taking. The worry is that groups like the one here | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
can't spot when people are taking advantage of the system. Now it is | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
being suggested they all come together and cooperate in a far more | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
official way. I think there's an awful lot that the participants they | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
can do about putting their information together on some type of | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
spreadsheet, so it is available through lots of different ways so we | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
can map the provision that is available in the city. Whether that | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
be lunchtime clubs, food banks. That is already being done at some | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
places. Hull food bank is part of the Trussell Trust, a network of 400 | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
centres across the country. It says size gives it influence and allows | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
it to work with a wide range of health and social workers who | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
identify those genuinely in need. But others believe there are | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
benefits to a more informal approach. This church runs a small | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
daily drop`in meal and food bank service. It stops abuse by getting | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
to know people first. We don't advertise the fact there is a food | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
bank at Saint Hilda's. People know about it because this church is in | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
the middle of the community, everybody knows where it is. People | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
who have been helped by the church put the word around. While different | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
groups vary in their approach to tackling food poverty, they do all | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
agree that demand for their service is increasing so it's important to | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
have a debate on how the system can be improved. | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
Earlier, I spoke to the Liverpool and Wavertree MP Luciana Berger, who | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
in 2012 made a documentary about people who use food banks. I started | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
by asking Ms Berger if she thought people were taking advantage of food | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
banks. Well, I've visited many food banks, | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
not only in my own constituency in Liverpool, but right across the | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
country, and I have never met any food bank user that has walked in | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
with their heads held high. It is very difficult for people to have to | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
accept the help. People are being referred to food banks because they | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
have got nothing to eat. What do you say to those people who say, yes, | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
but they still have a mobile phone and a television the size of a wall? | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
That is what some people will be saying. The former Lord Mayor of | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
Liverpool said the very same thing on the radio. I invited him to come | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
and see a local food bank and meet people and talk to them. He actually | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
changed his opinion. He met people that don't have mobile phones, and | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
if they had gone, weren't able to put credit on it, and didn't have | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
any luxuries, and people who went without meals in order to provide | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
for their children. You are saying everyone who is there has to be | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
there? It is not a lifestyle choice? It's certainly not a lifestyle | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
choice. There is a challenge that people perhaps aren't aware of the | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
fact that there are hundreds of thousands of people right across our | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
country, not just in deprived areas where you might expect it, but in | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
affluent areas too, who are really struggling to get by. It only takes | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
one thing, a job loss or a reduction in working hours, or an emergency | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
repair, which means they have no buffer and nothing to fall back, | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
they have to go to food banks. The Government already provides a safety | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
net in benefits for essentials. Should we teach people visiting food | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
banks how to manage the money they do have better? It's really | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
important to know that it's not just people out of work ` people in work | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
are having to go to a food bank, too. Jobcentres are having to refer | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
people to food banks because we are seeing an increase in the number of | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
people sanctioned and seeing their benefits taken away from them. I | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
come back to the point, yes, you might get your jobseeker's allowance | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
but you might have to have an emergency repair, like a hole in the | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
roof. With increases in bills, increasing basic costs around food | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
and energy, people are really struggling. Very good to have you on | :06:20. | :06:29. | |
the programme. So is Luciana Berger right that | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
everyone who uses a food bank or free meals service needs to be | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
there? Or if people are abusing the system ` as our report suggests ` | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
what needs to change to prevent that from happening? | :06:43. | :07:01. | |
In a moment: Claims that building a supermarket on Lincolnshire's only | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
cattle market would cause "lasting harm." | :07:06. | :07:13. | |
There are calls for Yorkshire's cities to be made safer for cyclists | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
as the region prepares to host this summer's Grand Depart of the Tour de | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
France. Local authorities are hoping the event will inspire more of us to | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
get on our bikes. But figures show that there has been a sharp rise in | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
the number of accidents involving cyclists since 2009. How dangerous | :07:31. | :07:41. | |
are roads in our area for those on two wheels? | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
Recent statistics show there has been a rise in the number of | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
cyclists killed or seriously injured on the road in Yorkshire and the | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
Humber between 2009 and 2012. It rose by nearly a third. There are | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
more people cycling. Campaigners say more people won't get cycling and | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
less road and less road Ahmed Saif. I have been out with cyclists here | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
in Hull, talking to people about problems they face. | :08:12. | :08:17. | |
As a cycle courier in Hull, David Noble knows every lump and bump in | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
the road. He travels around 40 miles a day on roads and cycle routes. In | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
the last year, he's gone through four tyres and five wheels. | :08:26. | :08:36. | |
I'd sooner take a route that's 24 miles, and using the cycle track | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
cuts time off your journey. But when it comes to cost`effectiveness, when | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
you're replacing ?30 tyres and ?60 wheels every day, obviously going | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
the longer way is the cheapest route. | :08:46. | :08:47. | |
This cycle shop in the city says they're repairing more bikes than | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
ever before, something they blame on poorly`maintained roads. We're | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
seeing a lot of buckled wheels, broken spokes, punctures, torn | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
tyres, bent forks ` people having accidents and going over the bike | :08:58. | :09:04. | |
because of pot holes. Hull has one of the highest numbers of cyclists | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
for a UK city, and in 2011, it was named as one of Britain's top cities | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
for cyclists. Events like Skyride have seen growing numbers of people | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
taking part. But that increase in interest has led to an increase in | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
accidents. In Hull in 2010, there were 25 serious accidents involving | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
cyclists. In 2013, it had almost doubled, to 41. With events like the | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
Tour De France coming to Yorkshire this summer, it's hoped it will | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
inspire more of us to get on our bike. Today, a cycling manifesto was | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
launched to encourage the Government to raise its spending on cycling and | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
improve safety. OUr surveys have shown that 60% of | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
people who don't ride a bike have said they would if they felt safer, | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
so the latent demand is absolutely enormous, and the potential good | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
that can do our country is also enormous. In Hull, a cycling action | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
plan is in place which aims to encourage more of us to take up the | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
sport, but campaigners say that won't happen if cycle paths are left | :10:07. | :10:19. | |
like this. If those problems can be overcome, it could have an affect on | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
lots of other services. The survey has shown that if 10% of trips were | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
made by cycle, the sailing to the NHS would be ?250 million a year. | :10:31. | :10:41. | |
Thank you. Always an emotive issue. Another one you might want to | :10:42. | :10:52. | |
comment on tonight. I look forward to hearing from you. A county | :10:53. | :11:01. | |
council decision that could see some Lincolnshire libraries run by | :11:02. | :11:04. | |
volunteers, is to be challenged in the High Court. The campaign group, | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
Save Lincolnshire Libraries, has lodged legal papers which could | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
force a judicial review. The authority says it has to save ?1.5 | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
million and insists it's acting lawfully. Lecturers at the | :11:14. | :11:22. | |
University of Hull joined other colleagues across the country in a | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
two`hour strike as part of a continuing row with the government | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
over pay. Trades Unions say members voted to strike because staff have | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
only been offered a 1% pay rise. A body which was found in the River | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
Witham in Lincoln yesterday has been identified as a man who's been | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
missing since the end of last year Ryan Morgan left Lincoln County | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
Hospital in December. His body was discovered by a rower. A postmortem | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
examination will now be held. Two women from Immingham have been | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
given a grant from the Lottery to try and help children in North East | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
Lincolnshire to sleep better. Claire Earley and Carol Batchelor are both | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
parents of severely disabled children who didnt sleep properly | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
until they put in place a strict sleep routine. They claim that even | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
the most chronic sleep problems can be cured by changing habits and now | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
they're running sleep clinics in the area. | :12:09. | :12:17. | |
Got rid of the telly, for a start. Changed it for soft music playing in | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
the background for him to settle with, and every night we used to | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
turn it down a notch till he used to settle with nothing in the room. | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
After two to three weeks, he was sleeping. It was amazing! | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
And you can see Carol and Claire's story in full on tonight's Inside | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
Out. Still ahead tonight: Orchestrating a | :12:39. | :12:52. | |
win ` the Tigers inch closer to premiership survival. The blind | :12:53. | :13:01. | |
skier from Lincoln hoping for a place on the podium. | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
Keep your photographs coming in. Thank you for that one. There is a | :13:10. | :13:21. | |
bit of Cumulus in the top. How is the man flu, Peter? I heard | :13:22. | :13:32. | |
you went to bed with a hot talk to. Trust you to hear about that. It is | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
too dangerous to exchange peasantry is with you. The headline for the | :13:36. | :13:44. | |
next 24 hours is unsettled. It will quickly turn wet. A bit of sleet and | :13:45. | :13:52. | |
snow through tomorrow afternoon. On this weather friends here, it might | :13:53. | :14:01. | |
turn a bit wintry. It is colder than average. There are showers at the | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
moment in southern parts of Lincolnshire, heading into North | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
Norfolk. We need to get rid of these showers. Watch out for ice on | :14:13. | :14:28. | |
untreated surfaces. Rurally, we could be down to freezing point. The | :14:29. | :14:43. | |
sun will rise about 7:30am. Dry, icy start. The dryness will not last | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
long. Bit of snow above the top of the world. That through really | :14:49. | :15:00. | |
proclaim the top temperatures, well, there will be a cold south`west | :15:01. | :15:09. | |
wind. Five or six Celsius. That is 41 Fahrenheit. Further ahead, wintry | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
showers on Tuesday night and Wednesday, more rain later. A risk | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
of severe gales on Wednesday night. Thursday looks brighter and mostly | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
dry with sunshine. We mentioned insomnia this morning. | :15:23. | :15:35. | |
Somebody said, Paul should make you a video of all his best bits. | :15:36. | :15:46. | |
Well, I have got a new blog that you can read online tonight. | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
Goodbye. Building a supermarket on the site | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
of Louth's cattle market would "cause lasting harm to the town for | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
a generation", according to Lincolnshire County Council. The | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
Cattle market is used for a half a day a week at the moment and a | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
consultation on the future of the site is underway. But any proposals | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
to develop the land by a major supermarket chain will face | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
opposition from the County Council even though another livestock market | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
will be provided if the site is re`developed. Paul Murphy reports. | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
This deli is the kind of independent specialist shop which characterises | :16:18. | :16:20. | |
this rural market town. But that character, according to some, will | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
disappear if a large supermarket is allowed into Louth. People from | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
Grimsby and Lincoln come to Louth because they like the experience. | :16:27. | :16:33. | |
Why don't they stay in Lincoln and Grimsby? Because they like to come | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
to Louth for a day out. And this is the cattle market site which East | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
Lindsey district council is thinking about selling. It says it's had | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
interest from a number of supermarkets. But now the County | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
Council has waded into the debate with a warning for the town. I have | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
seen the devastation that supermarkets cause if they are put | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
in the wrong place and they are not integrated properly into the whole | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
retail offer of a place. I do not want to see Louth go the way of so | :17:03. | :17:17. | |
many towns in this country. One concern is it that this was the age | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
of town place. Campaigners have welcomed the County Council's | :17:22. | :17:23. | |
intervention. We've been very heartened by Colin Davie's comments. | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
He's clearly taken a stand back look at this and said, look, there's this | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
town which is so important to the visitor experience in Lincolnshire. | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
It's one of the jewels of the county. To protect it is a very | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
important part of policy. No`one from East Lindsey district council | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
was available for interview. But their spokesman said: | :17:46. | :18:10. | |
so the council also says it will build a replacement livestock market | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
if it goes ahead. Like all of these things, it boils down to money. This | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
site could be worth at least ?12 million to East Lindsey district | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
council. They'll tell you that at a time when budgets are tight, that's | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
a lot of public services. There is much at stake in this historic town. | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
It will all be discussed at a special council meeting later this | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
week. Paul is back from Louth and with me now. What evidence is there | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
to suggest that a supermarket ` should one come to Louth ` might | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
actually benefit the town? Every town is different. The study is | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
being done by the University of Southampton, looked at a three`year | :18:51. | :19:03. | |
study and showed that people will go into towns as well as the retail | :19:04. | :19:10. | |
centres. The fear in Louth is people will go to the supermarket, then not | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
bother going into the centre of town. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
Thank you. Another one you might want to comment on. | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
Thanks to everyone who got in touch with us about the Humberside Police | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
and Crime Commissioner who says he needs an increase in the police | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
budget. Matthew Grove wants the money residents pay for police to | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
rise by just under two percent. The money will go towards new technology | :19:35. | :19:37. | |
which he says will mean officers can spend more time on the streets. | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
Plenty of responses from you on this one. | :19:42. | :20:07. | |
Hull City are closing in on the ten wins that Manager Steve Bruce said | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
they needed to stay in the Premier League. They head into tomorrow's | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
match with Southampton after taking a seventh victory at Sunderland. Our | :20:17. | :20:24. | |
sports reporter Simon Clark explains how the Tigers' multi`million pound | :20:25. | :20:27. | |
strike force has turned around their fortunes. Smiles for Steve Bruce. He | :20:28. | :20:39. | |
has now done the double over them. He was helped by another Sunderland | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
red card, this time handed out to Wes Brown. Tom Huddlestone couldn't | :20:44. | :20:45. | |
capitalise. Soon after, the impressive Shane Long could. Long | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
might have had a second. The post to Sunderland 's rescue. Hull City paid | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
close to ?15 million in the transfer window, a mind`boggling amount for | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
this club and this is what it buys. Jelavic scoring his first to add to | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
Long 's earlier strike and that's the Tigers up to 27 points. Still | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
only four above the drop zone but seemingly heading in the right | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
direction before tomorrow's match with Southampton. They have done | :21:12. | :21:27. | |
fantastically well. It helped spirit enormously. Southampton lost the | :21:28. | :21:47. | |
weekend. It was a learning curve for us. Hopefully, we can build on that | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
and it will be a different story this time round. We have got a few | :21:53. | :21:59. | |
new players in. We expect a different outcome. Steve Bruce did | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
not mince his words today, saying that Southampton are the best team | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
in the Premier League outside the traditional elite, a measure of how | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
hard things might be tomorrow. If the Tigers were to win, I will be | :22:13. | :22:25. | |
eight victories this season. Scunthorpe United remain second in | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
League One after a draw with leaders Chesterfield. Leading striker Sam | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
Winnall put the Iron ahead with a shot at close range but a second | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
half penalty was enough to give the visitors a point which keeps them | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
top of the table. Hull FC chairman Adam Pearson has | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
been outlining his ambitions for the club ahead of the new season. Hull, | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
who defeated Hull Kingston Rovers in one of their pre`season matches, | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
start life under new coach Lee Radford against the French side | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
Catalan Dragons at the KC Stadium on Friday night. I did not really think | :22:59. | :23:06. | |
there was enough discipline in the squad last year with regard to | :23:07. | :23:16. | |
training and particular standards. I have been very impressed with what | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
he has done. I could not asking to settle into the job better. | :23:22. | :23:23. | |
Adam Pearson, who will be explaining more of his plans on the Super | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
League show tonight, which starts at 11.20 here on BBC One. | :23:28. | :23:39. | |
Lincolnshire skier Jade Etherington has told Look North she's hoping for | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
a podium`finish at the Paralympics. The 22`year`old began skiing on | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
family holidays ` and has now been selected to represent Team GB in | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
four events at Sochi. She has less than 5% vision in each eye ` so | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
needs a guide to help her compete. Gemma Dawson has been to meet her. | :23:55. | :24:01. | |
Speeding down the slopes one after another. Watching it, it's hard to | :24:02. | :24:08. | |
believe that Jade ` in the orange hat ` is partially sighted. So she | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
relies on Caroline in front to guide her around the course. She wears | :24:13. | :24:22. | |
black so I can see her in contrast to the snow. In our helmets, we have | :24:23. | :24:28. | |
Bluetooth headset and can talk to each other. My site was pretty | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
stable when I was younger. Ever since I was 17, I started to lose my | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
site. That is when I got into skiing, and it really helped me cope | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
with the sight loss, and it was a silver lining. | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
Today, Jade's been doing some final interviews in Lincoln. Before | :24:46. | :24:47. | |
heading to a holding camp tomorrow, where she'll prepare to compete in | :24:48. | :24:56. | |
four events in Sochi. My aim has always been the sodium `` podium in | :24:57. | :25:05. | |
Sochi. I can't believe it is nearly here. I remember when it was 3000 | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
days away and now it is 25. I have always claimed to be on the podium, | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
no matter what colour. Yesterday, Team GB picked`up their | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
first medal at the Winter Games. Jenny Jones, here taking bronze in | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
the slope style snowboarding event. Jade's now hoping for a similar | :25:23. | :25:24. | |
result. This afternoon, she caught up with | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
two of her sisters in Lincoln. And they couldn't be prouder. It is | :25:29. | :25:41. | |
exciting hearing about the place she has been to. Method of a bit jealous | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
but it is really good. I am public to cry, but I will feel proud of | :25:47. | :25:49. | |
her. She has achieved something amazing. She is representing Great | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
Britain. She should be proud. So now there's just time for a few | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
final practice runs before Jade and Caroline compete. Incredible. We | :25:59. | :26:14. | |
wish Jade well. I'm sure she. We wish Jade all the best. | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
Let's get a recap of the national and regional headlines. | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
Thousands of homes are at risk in the Thames Valley. | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
There is a call to regulate free meals and food banks to stop some | :26:31. | :26:32. | |
people from taking advantage. Response on the subject of food | :26:33. | :26:52. | |
banks. Thanks for the messages. Paul says, I think genuine people who | :26:53. | :27:06. | |
need the food bank... Sally says, I am a professional. We do not just | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
hand out vouchers. Somebody else says, if people have a mobile phone, | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
they should not be entitled, because if they can afford a phone, they | :27:17. | :27:22. | |
should afford food. Bridget says, there are genuine cases where people | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
need help, but many abuse the system. Beryl says, people who | :27:27. | :27:33. | |
attend food banks are given food for only three days and put in touch | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
with the correct agency according to their needs. Thank you for those. | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
Have a nice evening. Goodbye. # I tremble | :27:43. | :28:16. | |
