Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North.

The headlines from us this Tuesday night.

Guilty - the P and O staff who used ferries to smuggle drugs into Hull

A fresh outbreak of bird flu is confirmed at

a farm in Lincolnshire - thousands of birds are affected.

I live a farmer with a third case of bird flu has been detected in

Yorkshire and literature. Recruiting from abroad

to solve the GP shortage - the doctors trained in Poland,

on their way to our area. Pictures show a bin man in Hull

taking rubbish under the car. They tell us to report fly-tipping and go

do it themselves. And Lincoln City's big night -

the non-league side will be beamed into millions of homes,

as their FA Cup adventure continues. In that first match it ended 2-2,

so now they've got them A quiet but cloudy week of whether

to come. I will be back later with the details.

A 1.8-mile exclusion zone has been put in place around

Low Farm in Fulstow with a six-mile surveillance zone.

It is five miles from Austen Fen Farm, where another case

Some restrictions were lifted there last week but it's not though

It's 20 hours since bird flu was confirmed in this farm behind me. It

is not a disease that is dangerous to humans but it is highly

contagious and deadly when it gets not then a flock and today when vets

and Democrat officials alive they spent most of the time securing the

site. -- Defra. They are trying to make sure it does not spread

farther. It's a sight farmers dread,

your land being sealed off Bird flu has found its way

into a flock of 6000 turkeys housed Earlier vets prepared

to cull the birds which the It is devastating news for the

farmer involved in. It is 6000 turkeys last in this outbreak and it

means that his farm and his poultry units have to be disinfected and

they have to be cleared and he will be closed down for some time.

This outbreak is just a few yards from Austen Fen Farm

With the same strain of bird flu, H5N8, was found

in a flock of 5000 turkeys in

It was also detected earlier this month in a backyard

Poultry farming is the livelihood of many

We've got a number of those sort of places around the area so

although the one that happened before is not that far away was only

a matter of time before we expected that there would be another break

People seem to be keeping their chickens in the area

Tomorrow efforts will move from securing the site to

A grim day for the farmer and those who tried so

So why does this keep happening? This is a highly contagious disease

and Defra insist it is wild bisect harried the disease of the mingle

with flocks outdoors only take the same food trays with the droppings

that can cause the disease to spread but the birds here will be housed

indoors ever since the recent outbreak a few miles away. So why it

has happened here is a question that Defra plan to looking the next two

weeks at. There will be doing what they call seek and trace and will

see what anything from this site has moved to, not just bias but also

staff movements and vehicles going between farms because it is very

important that this disease is stopped from spreading further

because poultry farming is big business in Lincolnshire. The Rover

300 poultry farms employing hundreds of people and 90 million birds are

raised here every year and as this disease is in the area it is

affecting exports and could be affecting people's jobs which is why

so much effort is going into making sure it does not spread further.

Nigel Gibbens is the government's Chief Veterinary Office.

I asked him what farmers in Lincolnshire were doing wrong.

We're looking at this case. We confirmed that only yesterday. This

is a very infectious bird flu virus. I think you would wrong to leap to

the conclusion that anybody is done anything wrong. It is very difficult

to stop farms from becoming infected which is why we Irish farmers and

bird keepers to do anything they can. Something is going wrong. These

birds have been housed since the zebra so we cannot blame wild birds

for this infection. What other farmers doing wrong? What more do

they need to do? Farmers need to do everything they can to protect their

birds, even when they are housed. The issue with wild birds is the

birds don't have to contact the kept birds directly. The virus is highly

infectious and it can be spread on people's shoes and peoples clothing

and equipment that may go in to housing or on food. There are lots

of ways that infection may enter our house. Farmers need to do everything

they can to prevent that and as I have said before this can be really

difficult of farmers need to do everything they can but be given a

degree of challenge which is essentially from wild birds farms

are at threat. What would be a message tonight to farmers who are

watching the county and beyond? Two important things. One, do everything

you can. Make sure that wild birds cannot access your birds and keep

them housed if you can't. Whatever you do, make sure that when you go

to your birds, you are clean and are not carrying anything to your birds

on your feet are in any other way. Also recognise that once disease

gets into a flock it can move from one flock to another. Being a for

signs of disease and reporting quickly to us which farmers are

doing so that if the worst does happen and infection occurs we can

do with it quickly and it does not spread quickly. I know you say

there's nothing to worry about but the public will be. Would you eat a

Lincolnshire turkey tonight without a thought? Absolutely without a

second thought. Public of England is very clear that the risk to public

health is very low and the Food Standards Agency has confirmed many

times they do not consider this a risk in the food chain. We will have

more at how past ten tonight on the programme. I will be talking to the

National Farmers Union. Two former P ferry workers have

been found guilty of conspiring to smuggle class A drugs into Hull

from the Netherlands. Edward Tron from Gateshead

and Mark Quilliam from Liverpool were arrested after the conviction

of one of their former It follows an investigation

in which Edward Tron outlined plans to import cocaine

Tron. This is the moment they came

to arrest him in his cabin. You are under arrest on suspicion of

importing class a drugs. The arrest led to the 51-year-old,

and Pride of York cook Mark Quilliam being arrested for conspiring

to import cocaine into the UK. Mr Tron's wife Susan was also

arrested for money laundering. However in Hull Crown Court

the jury heard that Edward Susan Tron deposited

?140,000 in cash into three separate bank accounts between 2009 and 2014

- money which they claimed came The pair and Mark Quilliam were only

caught following the 2013 arrest of another P employee

who was found carrying ?60,000. His conviction leading

to an investigation in 2015 They put an undercover officer

onboard to whom Edward Tron confessed his whole smuggling

operation. Later in court he said he'd

made those stories up, but the jury heard that Edward Tron

was a "very skilful and adept liar", who in his own words said: "I can

lie when I need to." The court also heard that telephone

kiosks such as at Victoria Dock as well as disposable mobile phones

were part of a multi-million pound smuggling operation which involved a

one-man bringing drugs on board in Rotterdam and bringing them off in

Hull. A P Ferries spokesman said:

"P Ferries operates a zero tolerance policy

towards illegal substances. We cooperated fully

with the police investigation." The three will be sentenced

tomorrow, when Edward There was a police chase outside a

pub in Rotterdam and a partner in Hull the three have all been found

guilty. All three will be sentenced tomorrow and Edward Tron and Mark

Quilliam had been told to expect substantial sentences.

The Brexit minister David Davis has told a Lincolnshire MP

the government will support the county's farming

industry after Britain leaves the European Union.

His comments came on the day Theresa May delivered

The Prime Minister said the UK will pull out

of the European Single Market when Britain leaves the EU.

Can my right honourable friend assure the house that agriculture

will be central in any trade negotiations and that the

high-quality food standards for which British farming is famed will

be a key principle in those negotiations? The answer very simply

is yes. We are a large market for European agricultural food

production that they are a large market for us and we will keep that

in mind. The Brexit secretary, David Davies.

"Completely unacceptable" - a council says it'll investigate,

after a bin man is filmed dropping litter and kicking it beneath a car.

of homes, in their FA Cup match against Ipswich.

It is a stunning photographs. Another picture tomorrow night. How

are you? How are you? I hear your insomnia must be really bad as I

noticed you said you'd been listening to Paul is a weather sure.

-- show. It will help. Don't be cruel about it. The weather. It will

be a lot less eventful than last week, you will be pleased to know

that quite boring and say me day on Dave. Lot of dry weather to come but

it will be fairly cloudy. A lot of cloud in the sky. It will be high

pressure dominating the weather so a lot of settled weather to come but

unfortunately it will be a fairly cloudy high and over the next 24

hours and very weak when a fan stuck underneath the high summer could be

Lincolnshire and around The Wash. It will was be a little bit cooler.

day tomorrow but generally a lot of dry weather to come but it will be

fairly cloudy and it will always be cooler the further you are towards

The Wash. Not much breeze over the next few days and nothing much to

blow the cloud around provide decent breaks. The further you are towards

The Wash it will be that bit cooler. Groundhog Day this week. On Thursday

this week it will be the same for Clyde. A few breaks as read head

on BBC Radio Lincolnshire. A dozen GPs who have been recruited

from Europe to work in Lincolnshire are undergoing their final training

before starting work The county's currently short

of about seventy GPs, and it's hoped the new recruits

who are getting their last bit of training in Poland, will help

ease the strain on surgeries. Here's our Health Correspondent,

Vicky Johnson. The shortage of GPs has

been well documented, it's even led to the closure of some

surgeries across Lincolnshire. Dr Graham Parker tried retiring two

years ago but was persuaded to take up a part-time job at this

surgery in Wragby. He's one of only two GPs working

here, other shifts are filled by locums and he admits

it can be difficult. It is stressful and sometimes

if you want to pass, or get some advice from your colleagues

and they are not here, The situation here at Wragby

is like many other surgeries There are currently 70 GP vacancies

in the county with another 75 doctors expected to retire here over

the next five years. But 25 GPs are now being recruited

from abroad, with the first 12 due For the Wragby practice that

can't arrive soon enough. It will just be the consistency

of having a regular GP, full-time, It will be better for the patients,

better for the staff. The new GPs come from places like

Greece, Lithuania and Poland. We will support them with dedication

and providing the social activities and integrate them with the

practices so they feel part of the community and part of the practice

committee and part of the NHS Trinity.

Health watch says it will improve matters. It will let a lot more

people get implement with the doctor when they want to. -- to get an

appointment. The new doctors from Europe

are being given three-year contracts and will each receive a bonus

if they stay on longer. Vicky Johnson, BBC

Look North, Wragby. Last night Gainsborough MP

Edward Leigh came on to talk about starting a debate

about whether we should pay We had a big response,

here's just a few of your messages. Gary from Lincoln has texted,

he says, paying upfront to see a doctor or paying for your bed

in hospital, doesn't sound a bad idea, providing you stop paying

National Insurance contributions Joan from Hull called,

she says, I'm so angry, why not charge all the foreigners

who come into this country agree with Edward Leigh,

but he is quite right to try and break the taboo of finding

an improved model for use No system can cope with unlimited

demand with no limits on use. Thank you for those, I am sure it is

one which we will be returning to at a later date.

A bin man has been caught on CCTV spilling rubbish

over a street in Hull - and then kicking it all beneath

When one of the wheelie bins topples of the kerb spilling dirty nappies

and litter onto the road, the first reaction

Instead, it was promptly kicked under a parked car.

They're complaining at people fly-tipping and telling us

to report fly-tipping and they do it themselves.

Like I say, we would have been fined if we'd have done it.

It is their job to keep places clean and they kicked it under the car.

Today some of the dirty nappies and litter are still in the road.

Jill says she took the issue up with another bin man

to clean up some of the waste but not all of it.

The bin belongs to another resident. That is disgusting. Other residents

say it is not the first time this has happened. They don't do it

properly. I think they are trying to get the job over with.

Hull City Council said it aims to provide the highest level

of service and will be investigating this matter thoroughly.

The council said it is completely unacceptable behaviour

and the appropriate action will be taken.

Phillip Norton, BBC Look North, Hull.

We would like to hear from you on this story,

what's your experience of bin collection teams where you live?

Do you have praise for your local teams and have you ever experienced

anything like this, occasionally regularly? Your thoughts on the

server should get. Humberside Fire and Rescue have

revealed a new look for one The usual red paint has been

swapped for pink and orange as they take on the Hull City

Trinity Square earlier today. East Yorkshire tennis player

Kyle Edmund has made it through to the second

round of the Australian Open. He beat Colombia's Santiago

Giraldo in three sets - despite the temperature reaching 35

Celcius. He says training with

Andy Murray has helped his I've been training with an day for

some four years now through pre-seasons and staff and definitely

the first ones, it was a step up for me because I'm not used to that but

the more you train with them, the more time you spend on to a level,

you have to get better. You have no choice.

Lincoln City are preparing for a live performance

on national television in front of an audience of millions.

The Imps take on Ipswich Town in their FA Cup third

Our sports reporter Simon Clark is at Sincil Bank.

I think they are more than ready. This has been a logistical challenge

for both Lincoln city with the full house ear and the BBC who are taking

over the airwaves sear on BBC One tonight. And we have been taking a

look behind the scenes. It has been a frantic day of activity here

today. TV cameras have been installed and outside the ground

lorry loads of equipment are needed to bring the skin to your home and a

worldwide audience of many millions. -- this game. Every angle discovered

that the manager is bringing the Mack playing down scrutiny his team

is under from international pundits and an expectant crowd. When you're

playing against bigger and better clubs and top player should get

instant feedback and is something we've enjoyed. We felt we'd learned

a lot from the old game in the first Ipswich game and we're hopeful we

will learn a lot again that we're able to use a campaign. I thought I

would show you the match of the Day studio. It is a bit of a glorified

Gazebo that it will do the job. Fans have been coming from far and wide

to see this game but nobody has racked up their mouths like the club

director and investor. Yesterday I was in sunny South Africa and now I

am absolutely freezing but I will be dressed warm when I get to the tail

and get a proper court. There is no doubt that both these teams learned

a lot about each other in the original tie, and switch may be more

as they will need to make a plan to deal with 2-goal striker Robins.

Trevor Sinclair has played in the World Cup and also played here in

1989 and this is his view of the game. I have got a good relationship

with them after interviewing him a few weeks ago and love what is the

-- what he is doing here. His attention to detail is second to

none in this league and they are governed themselves to the club and

the community and I think they are fantastic since they got here and

let's hope they can get a good showing tonight. He was playing for

Blackpool, by the way, not Lincoln city. This the first match, big

national match, that the former Lincoln city manager Graham Taylor

will be remembered. There will be an minutes applause before the game and

in the second half these advertising hoardings will prompt the Lincoln

city fans to remember Graham again. It'll be a special, if sad, evening

tonight. Let's get a recap of the national

and regional headlines. Britain will leave the EU single

market. Theresa May sets out a core demands for Brexit negotiations.
