04/09/2014 Look North (East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire)

Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North.

Government inspectors say Htmberside and Lincolnshire Police are failing

The result will be that these claims will be de`criminalised. Thdre are

never going to stamp out anti`social behaviour if they don't do something

about it. It's helped hundreds

of people lose weight. So why is Fit Fans losing

its funding? I don't have any aches and pains, I

don't take tablets. It's only done me good.

Panic on the flight from Ibhza as smoke fills the cabin.

We got on the should and thd captain told us to quickly get off the

plane. And their name is also on the

list ` a new Dad's Army fill could Plus a detailed forecast for the

weekend. A report by Her Majesty's

Inspectorate of Constabularx has found a number of failings

in how Humberside and Lincolnshire Both were found to have

a policy not to attend all reports of crime and hadn't consultdd

the public about this policx. Simon Spark has been looking

at the findings. What exactly did this

report consider? The aim of the report was to inspect

how well forces were responding to crime and anti`social behavhour and

focusing on core police functions. But it's time for Humbersidd in

Lincolnshire Police that certain crimes like theft from motor

vehicles but only had no officers being sent out but little

investigation at all. It is my view that those forces who have `dopted

this do nothing approach to these crimes, the result will be that they

will be decriminalised if nothing is happening other than recordhng.

Neither force have a policy to inspect every crime. Officers are

dispatched after a serious of considerations. But the report said

that the public had not been consulted. I think the publhc should

have been consulted because there has been a lot of deterioration in

the police. My ex`wife is played with boy racers in the car parts of

the police don't want to know. There are never going to stamp it out if

they don't do anything about it The police will come and see evdry crime

reported. We do take all crhmes seriously but on occasion they

actually don't want us to attend, they just want to bring us `nd

reporters for insurance purposes or something. We also run a di`ry

system which means we can attend and speak to people at a time that is

convenient for them. It's not as cut and dried as we don't attend every

incident. Neither For the prevention of crime,

neither force had an overarching crime prevention

strategy but in Lincolnshird's case it was said, that didn't inhibit

their effectiveness. Where Humberside Police was singled

out, was where they were un`ble to provide numbers of suspects who

failed to answer police bail. They were unable to speak to us

today but in a statement sahd, their commitment to give the best service

possible is universal in Hulberside and they are currently making

changes to further ensure this with The HMIC noted that

Humberside Police had embarked upon a significant change progralme and

were looking forward to re`dxamining joining me as Paul Davidson who ran

to be the Police and Crime Commissioner. You surprised that not

certain crimes? I'm not enthrely surprised. It only confirms what

everyone has known for a long time, that we haven't investigated some

crimes or 15 or 20 years now. This has come very late for many victims

who might be watching tonight. When you campaigned to be crime

Commissioner, you said everx crime would be looked at. Is that

possible? It is possible and if I had been successful, the mahn part

of my campaign would have bden to investigate every crime. I did it

easily as, under the East Rhding, and I think it is nonsense but to

provide a high`quality servhce to the public. They should invdstigate

every crime. I did for thred years, it is easy. You saying they are

making excuses? Absolutely. I'll give you an example. 75,000 crimes

are recorded each year. 20,000 or so are not investigated. If th`t is one

criminal power crime, you'rd letting off 20,000 criminals. I don't know

why he would not want to catch them. The police tell you what thdy're

going to do. They don't ask you whether you want investigathon or

not. At the moment, there are many criminals walking the streets. That

is a strong criticism from ` former senior officer. I was one of very

few in the whole country who investigated every crime and I did

it because the sole purpose of the police is to serve the publhc. I had

my car broken into. Is that really what the police should be

investigating? One, it's to reassure the person. It is not a main crane

to you. We need to reassure you We want to hear from you

on this story, do you think the police should investigate and send

an officer to every reported crime? Let us know with

the contact details on scredn. 160,000 people are expected

in Lincolnshire for the I'm like that Burghley lookhng at

determined to bid again for funding We're hoping to keep some exercise

sessions running for the people who have been on the programme

previously. Until next April, just to keep our good name and good work

going. There will be a small cost, not`for`profit but just to keep

things ticking over. Barry and Marion both say FhtFans

has kept them, and many othdrs, They claim that with the city's

rising obesity levels it wotld simply be a false economy for the

council to stop the classes now A family's plea for the rettrn of

a burglary on the family's home It's not just a watch. We are so

much more attached to it th`n the monetary value. We would appeal and

waiting at the airport! As Scotland are due to go to

the polls exactly two weeks today to vote on independence, thdre are

claims that the issue is le`ding to calls for greater regional power to

the North of England. Campaigners in favour

of a new regional Government say people in the North are missing out

and that power has become too I think people are starting to think

seriously about regional government. We've seen the success of ddvolution

to Scotland, Wales. London has its own regional Government that we

often forget about, so it is the other regions that are misshng out.

England remains very centralised on London. It isn't working and I think

people are waking up to that. I'm joined now by Lord Prescott who

has campaigned for more powdrs to be Would it be a yes or no for you for

Scotland? I want us to stay together. 30 years ago, I wrote a

report on regional policy and air pollution. It was to match the

devilish and for Scotland and bring power to northern regions. H think

that's going to come now. Would you like to see the North have hts own

setup? Absolutely. I proposdd it. In Scotland, the first referendum was

lost, same for Wales. If yot ask them now, if they want more

accountability, they'll say yes That was only 2004, you're not

saying it would be very different if we tried again? It was a short time

between successful referendtms between Scotland and Wales. If

you're going to give more powers whether you're in or out to

Scotland, you can't do that without giving too northern regions similar

powers. There are more people and the North Scotland! `` in the North

than Scotland. Lord Erskine was on my team who was campaigning in

Yorkshire and ducked out. I'm glad he has changed his mind. I had to

fight in the north`east bec`use he and the group decided it did not

want the vote in Yorkshire. We pay M people are Mac to make thesd

decisions. `` MPs. They certainly want to get the resources that

Scotland get in the North. Ht's going to cost a lot more money.

People said that in 2004. They thought it was just like local

authority. If Scotland are going to get more power and a greater share

of resources than we do in Dnglish regions, and if Wales is gohng to

get more, do the English regions just go for an English Parlhament?

What type of decision would you like made for the North of England?

You've just been talking about the police. There are 44 police

authorities. That should be one authority and the police `` in the

region. Same for health. Give the powers to the regions and you won't

have the differences. You'll be giving them accountability.

This is another story you might have a view on as well.

Do you think there should bd more power for our part of the country?

an equestrian event. Believe it or not, there ard people

here today who might never see a horse. Their Burghley is a festival

of shopping. Burghley's retail village is

another economic success story. The shops to attract us back every

year. We know friends running stalls and helping out. It's just

unbelievable. You should never assume that people don't have any

money. Some people don't, of course, but there are a lot of people who

have. I think coming to Burghley and spending it is a lifelong p`ssion

for a lot of people. We've done a lot of shopping to take homd. To

help at the bar back in the United States.

This is all a far cry from the humble contest
