A senior Conservative MP calls for a pact with UKIP | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
We are really conservative `nd will deliver a referendum and all the | :00:12. | :00:26. | |
things they care about. 70 years since D`Day ` | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
veterans share their memorids And unsettled weather to cole with | :00:31. | :01:16. | |
the Met Office weather warnhng for rain. | :01:17. | :01:24. | |
A senior Lincolnshire MP has called for a pact between UKIP | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
elections was widely interpreted as a protest vote against the lain | :01:28. | :02:08. | |
Westminster parties but according to senior Conservatives Sir Edward | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
Leigh, it is his party that has the most to lose if UKIP do well in next | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
year's general election. He wants an informal pact where the parties | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
would not fight each other hn some seats. We have to reunite the | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
right. Informal arrangements coupled with the fact we reassure | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
traditional voters we are conservative and will delivdr a | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
referendum and the things they care about, we have a chance of winning | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
the election. Bill and Sandra are conservative voters who livd in the | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
games per constituency. How do they feel about the Tories forming an | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
alliance with UKIP? I think Nigel Farage puts on an image that is not | :02:53. | :02:59. | |
suitable for politics. You do not think David Cameron should do a | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
deal? Not at all. He likes his beer and cigars, he does not seel | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
serious. Nigel Farage has consistently ruled out formhng a | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
pact with any other party. This is what he's said in a recent | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
interview. It is not going to happen. UKIP is a different party | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
and we are not going to be bought off by anybody. The Newark | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
by`election saw the Conserv`tives hold onto the seat, despite a swing | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
to UKIP. Sir Edward Leigh bdlieves many traditional Tory voters are | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
alienated by coalition policies such as same`sex marriage. H think | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
it was a mistake to bring in gay marriage but I would have thought a | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
senior Conservative minister could Pollard jives to older tradhtional | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
supporters who value their traditional marriage, that we were | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
sorry we upset their beliefs. We have already seen an unlikely | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
political marriage in Downing Street and many will speculate if there | :04:08. | :04:08. | |
will be another sometime soon. Joining me now is Michael Brown a | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
former Lincolnshire Conserv`tive MP Should the Tory party consider doing | :04:13. | :04:25. | |
a pact with UKIP, even if it meant keeping out labour in areas where | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
they could do well? I think it is not necessary. I see the pohnt | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
Edward makes but 12 hours after a stunning Conservative victory in | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
Newark, where UKIP did not come near winning, they picked up Libdral | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
votes, and I think the Consdrvative Party should not worry too luch | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
about UKIP. After all, it is the Labour Party and the Liberal | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
Democrats who have suffered in the past couple of weeks. There is no | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
doubt the British public in Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire are | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
Eurosceptics. But I think that area is fortunate to have Edward Leigh, | :05:08. | :05:14. | |
Austin Mitchell, Mr Percy, David Davis and Martin Vickers, you are `` | :05:15. | :05:23. | |
who are Eurosceptics. But is there a danger of letting in labour if you | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
vote UKIP? That is what Martin Vickers and Andrew Percy who have | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
the marginal seats have to do. If you vote UKIP you will end tp with | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
Ed Miliband. If they keep the message straight, Andrew Percy and | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
Martin Vickers have been very Eurosceptic and independent. No UKIP | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
candidate will defeat Edward Leigh who has a marvellous record with | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
Euro scepticism. I agree with him 99% of the time but I think this | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
time he is not worrying `` he is worrying unnecessarily. Let me ask | :06:01. | :06:13. | |
you about his comments about the government apologising for | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
legalising gay marriage. Is it wise to speak out on this? Edward has | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
always had a principled stand on this issue and I respect it. I would | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
not have done it myself, either But the Conservative government enacted | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
this. I do not think any apology is now necessary. People have to focus | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
in a year's time on this, if you want David Cameron as Prime | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
Minister, you can only get him by voting Conservative. If you want Ed | :06:43. | :06:44. | |
Miliband, vote UKIP or labotr. We want to hear from you | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
on this story. Do you think a deal would | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
work between the two parties. Maybe you have a view on | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
Edward Leigh's comments that the Tory party should apologise | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
for introducing gay marriagd. And you can see | :07:00. | :07:22. | |
the full interview with Sir Edward Leigh on this weekend's Sunday | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
Politics, where guests will include the Hull North MP Diana Johnson | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
and Cleethorpes MP Martin Vhckers. Police | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
from Hull will travel to Russia to continue their investigation | :07:32. | :07:43. | |
into the loss of the Gaul. The sacrifices made by the `llied | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
forces who invaded occupied France, 70 years ago, have been remdmbered | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
at D Day services in Normandy. Veterans from East Yorkshird | :07:52. | :07:59. | |
and Lincolnshire have joined political leaders and heads | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
of state at acts of remembr`nce Gemma Dawson has been | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
following today's events. How important was D`Day? It was 70 | :08:07. | :08:19. | |
years ago that the landings took place and on that day, more than | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
156,000 British and Allied troops invaded Normandy in France. As many | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
of `` is 4000 of them and 9000 Germans died on that one dax. It was | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
the beginning of the end of the Second World War, leading to the | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
eventual defeat of Nazi Gerlany Today a events took place in | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
Normandy and the two veterans from East Yorkshire, there was a chance | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
to share memories with Prince Charles. Remembering a uniqte moment | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
in history. The Queen and ldaders from around the world have let the | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
men who took part in D`Day. Rinse Charles chatted with an East | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
Yorkshire `` East Yorkshire bet in Normandy. `` veterans in Normandy. I | :09:05. | :09:21. | |
did not know what to expect. When it did happen, it was not very | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
pleasant. There was a lot of action going on with tracer bullets and God | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
knows what else. I was on a gun on the starboard side. I thought, if I | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
can only fire this gun, it light study me. And so I did. On June six, | :09:39. | :09:48. | |
1944, troops from Britain, @merica and Canada arrived in Normandy in | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
France. For the infantry, it must've been horrific, particularly for | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
those who did not land in the correct places and were virtually | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
submerged when they landed. Fortunately, our boys on our beach | :10:04. | :10:12. | |
made a good job of it. I do not like talking about what we did. Ht was | :10:13. | :10:23. | |
not very nice. Thousands of Allied troops died on this day 70 xears | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
ago. People call us heroes, but we are not. The heroes are still there. | :10:31. | :10:38. | |
This sacrifice gave the Allhes their best chance of defeating Nazi | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
Germany. Today, their efforts have been remembered with events across | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
Normandy. While the focus of commemorations today has bedn on | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
France, local veterans will spend the weekend reflecting on the events | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
of 70 years ago and foodies, from Grimsby and Cleethorpes, it will | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
include laying down their standard for the final time. The Norlandy | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
Veterans Association has sedn numbers dwindle and Sunday will mark | :11:08. | :11:08. | |
the official end of this br`nch A murder investigation has started | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
following the death Police were called to this house | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
on Frodingham Road last night. Two women and a man have bedn | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
arrested on suspicion of murder Lincoln County Hospital says | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
its under pressure because too many Officials say staff are assdssing | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
patients to see if they can go home, They say no single reason is | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
behind the increase in patidnts It's been a major priority | :11:32. | :11:39. | |
for years. But now a new report on transport | :11:40. | :11:41. | |
in Lincolnshire estimates that it would cost more than ?3 billion to | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
upgrade two of The A15 | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
and the A17 are key transport links, but despite years of discussion | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
both are still single carri`geway. A report commissioned by | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
the county council making them dual carriageways must remain a priority | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
despite suggestions the govdrnment It's long been the ambition | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
of Lincolnshire's politicians to Key transport routes, | :12:05. | :12:16. | |
like the A17 and the A15. Despite years of discussion both are | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
still single carriageway ro`ds. A new report, to be presentdd to | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
Lincolnshire County Council next week, says it's having an ilpact | :12:28. | :12:30. | |
on the local economy. But it also highlights a lack | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
of government funding to make It urges the council to | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
carry out more research. Proving the economic benefit could | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
help build the case for invdstment, If you can make the case th`t the | :12:42. | :12:58. | |
benefits of something, then you can go to government and put thd case | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
and argue for the money. If there is evidence that the economy and people | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
of Lincolnshire will benefit by progressing something, and the | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
evidence supports it, we should go to government and make the case By | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
2021 the government plans to invest more than 70 billion in transport in | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
the UK, including plans for the high`speed railway between London | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
and the north. In Lincolnshhre, the county is expected to receive just | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
40 million to maintain the road network, among the largest of any | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
county in the UK. It is esthmated the cost of combining the two roads | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
could cost more than ?3 billion This haulier believes the local | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
economy would benefit. When people look at the map of Lincoln to | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
relocate business they will look and often they say it is a backwater | :13:54. | :14:01. | |
because the road structure hs poor. Improving bad roads is easidr said | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
than done. In the short`terl, the report suggests investigating | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
schemes such as improving jtnctions and overtaking lanes. That hs | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
another story you might havd a view on, especially if you use the roads | :14:19. | :14:35. | |
regularly. Still ahead on the programme tonight. The first dance. | :14:36. | :14:43. | |
The newlyweds celebrating Htll's famously grumpy poet. I likd looking | :14:44. | :14:51. | |
at him, he is so miserable `nd unchanged. But I know deep things | :14:52. | :15:04. | |
are surfacing. We can look `t the photograph. It is the fish stocks at | :15:05. | :15:14. | |
Grimsby. Taken from the clock tower. I mentioned your arms last week and | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
Darren said he was most offdnded when I said we do not need to see so | :15:19. | :15:26. | |
much of them. He said he wotld happily watch your arms all day I | :15:27. | :15:36. | |
could do with some of your fake tan, they would look better if they were | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
Browder! No sunbathing tomorrow It will be unsettled. `` Browndr. We | :15:41. | :15:48. | |
will have torrential downpotrs and intense rain pushing up frol the | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
south. This is linked to thd warm air coming from the south`wdst. | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
Heavy downpours tomorrow, btt it has been nice today. We have had a fair | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
amount of cloud, which turns the sunshine hazy. We got up to 22 | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
degrees. Overnight, largely dry with clear spells, and it whll not | :16:16. | :16:16. | |
be called. `` cold. We will start the day with showers | :16:17. | :16:37. | |
pushing up from the south. Heavy, isolated thunderstorms. We light see | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
showers merging into more organised heavy, thundery rain, which will | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
come up from the south`west. Intense downpours and I would not bd | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
surprised if we do not have surface water building in a few spots. It | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
will be cooler than today btt when the rain clears to the north, | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
temperatures will pick up l`ter But by the end of the day it will feel | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
less humid. On Sunday, it whll feel fresher. Sunshine and a few showers. | :17:09. | :17:19. | |
The showers could be heavy. They will be hit and miss, as well. | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
Showers are the theme at thd start of the week, but we hope it will | :17:25. | :17:32. | |
settle by the end of the wedk. We have e`mails. Scarecrows. Straw | :17:33. | :17:39. | |
on the arms. We had a scarecrow Festival and my | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
mother did my sister and I one. A team of police officers are | :17:42. | :17:49. | |
planning to travel to Russi` to continue an investigation | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
into the loss of Hull trawldr 36 men died when the ship wdnt | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
down in the Barents Sea. Last year, Humberside Policd said | :17:56. | :18:00. | |
authorities in Russia were trying to identify human remains found | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
on a beach there. Jill Archbold is at | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
St Andrew's Quay. What is important about this | :18:09. | :18:23. | |
potential visit? I am standhng at the ball nose. At this point many | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
have previously come to remdmber the 30 `` 36 crew of members. `` the | :18:28. | :18:36. | |
ball those. The remains of up to ten have been | :18:37. | :18:48. | |
found buried on the coast of Russia. It was said it was a reason`ble | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
theory that they could be crew members from the Gaul. Humbdrside | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
Police want to send three police officers and a scientist robber who | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
need permission from the Russian authorities to do that, but a | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
warning to the families it could be a slow process. Karl Davis posture | :19:07. | :19:19. | |
`` Karl Davis uncle was on the vessel. | :19:20. | :19:19. | |
a slow process. Karl Davis posture `` Karl Davis uncle was on the | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
vessel. It has been a long journey but we are getting closer to the | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
end. We have to let the civhl service do their thing. As H said, | :19:30. | :19:35. | |
this visit is in the hands of the Russian authorities. Humberside | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
Police are waiting for the green light from them. They said they | :19:38. | :19:44. | |
would like to fly out to Russia as soon as possible. One relathve said | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
the 40 years has been like ` black hole in his family's timeline. What | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
is clear is that it will be a long process, finding out if he can patch | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
up the hole by possibly burxing a member of his family. That hs a | :20:01. | :20:08. | |
subject we have followed for many years and will continue to do so. | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
Volunteers will be on the streets of Goole for | :20:12. | :20:13. | |
the first time this weekend to help keep people safe on a night out | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
A similar scheme was set up in Lincoln more than six ye`rs ago | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
and helped cut alcohol`related violent crime. | :20:22. | :20:22. | |
Organisers in Goole say thex hope the new team, known as stredt angels | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
They are walking around as the eyes and ears of the police, the | :20:27. | :20:39. | |
Ambulance Service and making sure people are OK. Getting home safely | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
and not leaving premises by themselves and walking home. Making | :20:46. | :20:55. | |
sure they have somebody to talk to. Last night we spoke about former | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
rubbish tips in Lincoln that could have new homes built close to them. | :21:00. | :21:04. | |

for the date. He is one of Britain's's most famous poets and | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
today a poem written by Philip Larkin has been specially pdrformed | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
on a train to London. Whitstn weddings was written by Philip | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
Larkin about a train journex from Hull to London. Our arts | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
correspondent was on board for the journey and has this report. It is a | :23:07. | :23:16. | |
poem inspired by wedding parties boarding the train from Hull to | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
London. To mark the 50th anniversary of Whitsun weddings, actors playing | :23:22. | :23:29. | |
newlyweds boarded four and the unique `` a unique performance. At | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
station after station, all couples boarded, watched like 50 ye`rs ago | :23:35. | :23:44. | |
by a rather grumpy Philip L`rkin. You are married to my uncle John. We | :23:45. | :23:52. | |
did not have chance to rehe`rse only chairs set out in carrhage | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
formation, but things like the sound, it being wobbly. I fdel sick. | :23:56. | :24:06. | |
I got changed in the toilet and everybody was coming up to le saying | :24:07. | :24:09. | |
you look lovely, you look bdautiful, congratulations. Throughout the | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
journey there was a recording of the actor Bill Nighy reading out the | :24:16. | :24:31. | |
poems. Philip Larkin worked as a librarian at the University of Hull | :24:32. | :24:39. | |
when he wrote his best works. Philip Larkin is a national poet, ` | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
national treasure. Making that connection between Hull and London | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
and the National cultural scene is important. Doing it in this unusual | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
way will attract attention. The actors are staying in character for | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
