so it's Good evening and welcome to

claims could be made against a local council by people who've

fallen on controversial new paving. It's called a shared area,

where people on foot, on bike and in vehicles are supposed

to move in harmony, but there's been We highlighted concerns

about changes to this main town centre route in Grimsby back

in January. Now there there are calls

for a review into the works. Emma, can you show us what

people say the problem is? Now all sins, no signs, everybody

has to mingle and get all of that. It has a part paving. It is this

small part, which is causing all of the problems. I had a big lump on my

head. I broke my nose. The injury suffered by this woman when she

slipped on eve optionally invisible kilt. It is an accident waiting to

happen. They should open their eyes. She was here in Grimsby when the

accident happened. It is designed so that vehicles, and pedestrians can

navigate the earlier. You are taking your life in your hands. The car

drivers do not know real bear. This man is registered as quaint and has

had difficulties negotiating the earlier. I have to look up words. It

makes my eyes all funny. Her husband broke his wrist. I am in agony. If I

try to move it the pain is ridiculous. This weekend work began

to replace some of the paving but the council has defended the plan.

?7 million has been spent and that has been some teething trouble with

this. E`petition has now been started to the council to the

design. We have spoken to some solace of those who said it is very

difficult to claim against the council. They have sent that the

average claim if successful would be between two and ?5,000.

Ben Hamilton`Baillie is a street designer who's created shared spaces

He says people will get used to them and grown to like them.

I asked him why he thinks they are a good idea.

Certainly in most towns or cities where we need to accomodate all

sorts of activites, as well as the movement of traffic, share space

But if people are falling over and injuring themselves it doesn't

Well, people fall over and injure themselves every day in every day.

If that's to do with the streets being shared is another question.

But we've had pavements and roads all of my life,

Why do we have to be trendy and get rid of them?

In any Accident and Emergency unit, any day of the week,

you'll find several people, particularly elderly, who have

But they're saying they're dazzled by the pattern

Aren't we being a bit dismissive of people who've got problems?

Clearly, the design of the kerb is very important.

We put a lot of effort into that, to make sure they're as visible

as possible without being a barrier between pedestrian

I don't know the particular scheme in Grimsby, I'm afraid.

Perhaps it's not been designed as well as it might, I can't say.

One of the people injured said she would like ?10,000 in compensation.

Do you think people should be compensated?

It's a dangerous road when you assume that every time

an accident happens, or a slip occurs, it's somebody else's fault.

But trips and falls happen every day of the

I think it's a mistake to always assume it's somebody else's fault.

The we would like your thoughts on this story. With us now.

The political parties hoping to be dealt a winning hand

Tough decisions must be made about the future of Europe's

it should save land near Withernsea and Hornsea which currently doesn't

At stake are peoples homes, roads, farmland and caravan parks.

Our correspondent Paul Murphy has the story.

Defending communities from the sea is a never ending challenge on

But some here have no defences at all ` including caravan parks

If this Econ is round the back then it is sensitive. I am not very

happy. If you are insecure. The council constantly monitors

erosion on this coast. But now it wants to look at two

specific communities at higher risk. The areas being studied are

from south of Hornsea down to Mappleton, where the council

is concerned about caravan parks And south of Withernsea where there

is an undefended housing estate, a caravan site and Yorkshire

Water's water treatment works. At this cliff top caravan park in

Hornsea they lose large chunks of We are very concerned. We are unable

to replace the places that we lose. It brings six ?7,000 a year into the

economy. The council is making one thing clear, protecting everything

is not an option. It is not environmentally acceptable. To be

realistic it is not going to happen. You have some tough choices? Very

tough. The sea is always the winner

in this contest. But the hope is that

at least some of the vulnerable communities along this shoreline

coast can get better protection. An Iranian family who were found

in the back of a refrigerated lorry in Spalding

have been discharged from hospital. The couple and their two young

children were discovered last Thursday after people heard

them banging while the lorry was Hull may be gripped by FA Cup fever,

but there's another contest being played out on the streets

of the city. Local elections take place a week

on Thursday and Hull's politicians are campaigning for votes ahead

of polling day. Here's our

Political Editor Tim Iredale. In Hull it's fair to say that

politics isn't the only game But for the city's politicians,

the stakes are always high Labour council leader Steve Brady

is hoping a recent raft of good We have had a phenomenal year. We

are the city of culture. We have got ?5 million of much`needed council

money and we have put that into the docks. They were impressed.

In recent years, the chips have been down for

the Liberal Democrats after a series of poundings at the ballot box.

By backing the weather will Democrats people will be voting for

people who want to serve them. We will provide the valuable

opposition. glamorous, but that is what people

want. This is a vote for change. Fresh ideas. Working hard. We are

asking what opinions are. Could this be the year more

you. After last night, there was a revelation you were seen on your

bike. But apparently it was deleted. Here is the weather headline. It is

not a bad run. Mostly dry with some sunshine. High pressure coming in.

It is going to be a short spell of somebody with. On Sunday it could

breach down. That is going to be some nice weather in the next few

days. Some thunderstorms in the short term. Risk of localised

flooding. The skies were clear from the North with temperatures coming

in at six or seven Celsius. The high water time is just after succeeding.

It should be a lovely start to the day. The temperatures will rise.

That is the risk of an isolated showers. Most of us will be fine and

peaking on Friday and Saturday. It is time to dust down the barbecue.

one free. See you later. David Cameron said everyone flooded

during the winter can have ?5,000. It's for the clean`up

and flood proofing for the future. My message to

the country today is this: Money is no object

in this relief effort. Whatever money is needed

for it will be spent. But the BBC has found out that

of 600 people flooded in Boston in Lincolnshire only 23 have

applied for the cash. Jake Zuckerman reports

from the town. When flooding her Boston last year,

the government promised to help. Properties could apply for up to

?5,000. But so far only 23 households have applied for the

money. Councils are worried that hundreds must risk missing out. I

want people to come forward. It is not too late. You are eligible. We

would want you to come forward. This woman is still feeling the effects.

We have water coming through. The money would be so useful. The

Citizens Advice Bureau is offering to help people fell in the forms. I

am concerned that people are not claiming what is due to them. It is

wrote about ?4 million from the government. I want people to get all

of that. Many of these houses were affected. The money from the

government would help for improvements like Windows and raised

political sockets. The challenge for the council is to make sure that all

those eligible claim the money. An incredible response to our story

these group of protesters? I am in the middle of studying for an

he owes it to them. I do not want them asking me what I did about it.

I don't want to have that on my conscience. This woman has a

background in conservation and has protested at other sites. If Frost

clearly defined. If you are mixing them you will get accidents. Dan

compensation. Mark says I was in them speak this weekend and I think
