:00:11. > :00:12.Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North.

:00:13. > :00:14.The headlines tonight: Police investigate record levels of hate

:00:15. > :00:17.crime across East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire since the Brexit vote.

:00:18. > :00:20.victimised, people are calling me names.

:00:21. > :00:25.You kind of get used to it, but, you know, sometimes

:00:26. > :00:30.when you are on your own you get frightened.

:00:31. > :00:33.I am even more strongly opposed to an address by President Trump

:00:34. > :00:40.So far as the Royal Gallery is concerned, and again,

:00:41. > :00:43.I operate on advice, I do not perhaps have as strong

:00:44. > :00:45.a say on that matter, it is in a different part

:00:46. > :00:47.of the building, although customarily, an invitation

:00:48. > :00:50.to a visiting leader to deliver an address there would be issued

:00:51. > :00:54.An MP says the House of Commons Speaker should be removed

:00:55. > :00:58.Eight tonnes of litter collected every day in one city.

:00:59. > :00:59.Residents say it's making life a misery.

:01:00. > :01:03.It is not nice for us at all, it is not nice for the residents.

:01:04. > :01:06.Why should we have to live with all this?

:01:07. > :01:11.If there were more bins I think there would still be

:01:12. > :01:14.Volunteers are needed to befriend elderly war veterans in Lincolnshire

:01:15. > :01:16.to stop them feeling lonely and isolated.

:01:17. > :01:18.You just get fed up sitting in the house,

:01:19. > :01:22.You have a laugh and a joke, you take the mickey

:01:23. > :01:25.It is a really lovely gang, it really is.

:01:26. > :01:28.Summer rain to come this evening, bright and breezy, join me for the

:01:29. > :01:46.five-day forecast for later on. Record levels of hate crime have

:01:47. > :01:49.been reported by police in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire

:01:50. > :01:52.since the EU referendum in June. A hate crime is any attack

:01:53. > :01:55.which the victim, or anyone else, thinks is based on someone's

:01:56. > :01:57.prejudice towards them because of their race,

:01:58. > :01:58.religion, sexual orientation, disability or because

:01:59. > :02:00.they're transgender. Humberside Police recorded 140

:02:01. > :02:02.hate crimes between July and September last year -

:02:03. > :02:04.an increase of 34% compared Lincolnshire Police

:02:05. > :02:07.recorded 78 hate crimes during the same period -

:02:08. > :02:09.a rise of 67%. Nationally, 14,000 hate crimes

:02:10. > :02:11.were reported between July Our correspondent, Vicky Johnson,

:02:12. > :02:23.reports from Scunthorpe. In the days since the EU referendum,

:02:24. > :02:26.some members of our community have been telling Humberside Police

:02:27. > :02:40.about the abuse they face... Stuff that we are seeing is after

:02:41. > :02:45.Brexit, things like we voted for the thing the EU, you're still here, why

:02:46. > :02:50.are you here? Basic things along the lines of that is no place in society

:02:51. > :02:53.for your community, go back to your country. This road in Scunthorpe,

:02:54. > :02:57.one of the most multicultural streets in the whole of our region.

:02:58. > :03:00.People of different nationalities and religions seem to rub along for

:03:01. > :03:05.the most part well together, however, some of those we spoke to

:03:06. > :03:07.have suffered racial abuse. Abid says the abuse can

:03:08. > :03:16.be deeply offensive... People call me names, I have been

:03:17. > :03:18.called a terrorist, you name it, anything under the sun, I have been

:03:19. > :03:19.called. For Husna - and her family -

:03:20. > :03:30.the taunting can They just tell you to take off your

:03:31. > :03:35.headscarf or whatever you are wearing. You kind of get used to it

:03:36. > :03:37.but, you know, sometimes when you are on your own, you get frightened,

:03:38. > :03:39.what if they do something to you? Chido, who moved from Zimbabwe 12

:03:40. > :03:49.years ago, thinks people have become At the beginning it was kind of

:03:50. > :03:55.difficult but as the years have gone by, things are starting to get

:03:56. > :04:00.easier because not many people comment or they are adjusting to the

:04:01. > :04:01.difference that we can all work together as one.

:04:02. > :04:04.But that's not always the case in Lincolnshire where there's

:04:05. > :04:05.been great uncertainty since the Brexit vote.

:04:06. > :04:08.This service of friendship was meant to help heal divisions.

:04:09. > :04:10.And the police say they're encouraging all victims of hate

:04:11. > :04:23.As much as it is terrible that these incidents occur at all, it is good

:04:24. > :04:26.news that people are feeling that Lincolnshire Police can be trusted

:04:27. > :04:31.with that information and that we will do something about it when they

:04:32. > :04:35.reported. There has been an increase in the number of hate crimes

:04:36. > :04:38.reported to both the Humberside and Lincolnshire Police forces, the

:04:39. > :04:49.number of cases is still relatively low compared to other areas. Becky

:04:50. > :04:50.Johnson, BBC Look North. We will be asking for your views on this

:04:51. > :04:52.shortly. Mike Ainsworth is from Stop Hate UK,

:04:53. > :04:54.an organisation which works to challenge hate crime

:04:55. > :04:56.and discrimination. I asked him whether an increase

:04:57. > :04:58.in hate crimes was down The figures absolutely occurred

:04:59. > :05:03.immediately after the referendum result and from both the official

:05:04. > :05:06.figures and from our own figures as to what happened in our helpline,

:05:07. > :05:16.the connection is irrefutable. And do you think these figures

:05:17. > :05:19.are accurate or is there more going on and maybe hidden

:05:20. > :05:22.that we do not know about? We know that hate crime

:05:23. > :05:25.is significantly underreported. Only one in ten hate crimes

:05:26. > :05:30.against members of the disabled community are reported to the police

:05:31. > :05:34.and that is reflected across other So it is only a portion

:05:35. > :05:38.of hate crime that is Do you agree with the Equalities

:05:39. > :05:44.and Human Rights Commission, who think that a small number

:05:45. > :05:47.of people used what happened last summer with the Brexit vote to,

:05:48. > :05:51.and I quote, "legitimise I think they are accurate in that it

:05:52. > :06:00.did legitimise racism and prejudice. I am not sure I would argue

:06:01. > :06:04.it is a small number. I think the number of victims

:06:05. > :06:07.that we see coming forward indicates that there is a problem that needs

:06:08. > :06:11.to be tackled. Do you think the figures now

:06:12. > :06:17.will level out or will they continue to rise, especially around

:06:18. > :06:19.Article 50 time? I think the figures have normalised,

:06:20. > :06:26.if I can use that word, it's probably the wrong word to use

:06:27. > :06:29.to do with hate crime, but the figures have gone back

:06:30. > :06:32.to what we would expect in terms We need to be careful going forward

:06:33. > :06:37.that we do not allow the way that campaigns are done,

:06:38. > :06:40.the way that campaigns are run, legitimises people,

:06:41. > :06:43.and there are simple ways of dealing with that, and I think strong moral

:06:44. > :06:48.leadership from those in positions of power and the way that the police

:06:49. > :06:51.have been dealing with these issues means that we do not

:06:52. > :06:55.have an inevitability that Article 50 will again trigger

:06:56. > :07:00.a similar rise in hate crime. But we do need to be

:07:01. > :07:02.proactive to prevent it. A very, very interesting

:07:03. > :07:04.one to talk about. Mr Ainsworth, thank

:07:05. > :07:06.you for your time tonight. We want to hear from

:07:07. > :07:13.you on this story. Do you think the rise in hate crime

:07:14. > :07:16.can be blamed on Brexit? Do you think politicians need

:07:17. > :07:18.to be more responsible in their campaigning,

:07:19. > :07:20.as we've just heard? You might have been a victim of hate

:07:21. > :07:24.crime and want to get in touch. Here is how to get in touch on the

:07:25. > :07:54.subject of We will have some of your views on

:07:55. > :07:58.the telly before we finish at seven o'clock.

:07:59. > :08:00.He's the Speaker who's been criticised for speaking out

:08:01. > :08:04.And tonight it seems that one of our MPs believes John Bercow can

:08:05. > :08:07.no longer remain in his job as Speaker of the House of Commons.

:08:08. > :08:10.Lincoln's Karl McCartney has written to fellow MPs saying Mr Bercow's

:08:11. > :08:12.position in the traditionally neutral role has become

:08:13. > :08:14."untenable" after he criticised the US President.

:08:15. > :08:27.More from our political editor, Tim Iredale.

:08:28. > :08:33.Order! Order! He is the man charged with keeping order in the House of

:08:34. > :08:37.Commons but at least one of our MPs believe that John Bercow is out of

:08:38. > :08:40.order after he said President Rob Wood not be welcome to address

:08:41. > :08:47.parliament when he arrives in the country later this year. I would not

:08:48. > :08:50.wish to issue an invitation to President Trumm. Lincoln MP Karl

:08:51. > :08:55.McCartney has e-mailed fellow MPs urging them to support a motion of

:08:56. > :08:59.no-confidence in Speaker Burkle, saying that he is not politically

:09:00. > :09:05.impartial and that his position now untenable. -- Speaker Baracoa. His

:09:06. > :09:08.rule is meant to be an impartial position and speaking out on such a

:09:09. > :09:13.politically divisive issue, he has broken the terms of the contract of

:09:14. > :09:18.which his job is and I am fully supportive of Karl McCartney, he has

:09:19. > :09:25.made his position untenable. But another MP disagrees. He is entitled

:09:26. > :09:28.to have that opinion because it is the Speaker of the House of Commons

:09:29. > :09:36.together with the Speaker of the Lord's and the Lord Chamberlain who

:09:37. > :09:41.addresses parliament. John Bercow is entitled to have that position. This

:09:42. > :09:45.is Speaker's Corner where people come to have their issue on the day.

:09:46. > :09:48.So what is the verdict on whether the House of Commons speaker was

:09:49. > :09:53.correct wrong to speak out about Donald Trump? Donald Trump is

:09:54. > :09:58.segregating people, so I think it is the right thing for him to say, for

:09:59. > :10:03.John Bercow to say. He is bad, but at the same time it will strike more

:10:04. > :10:07.people to put down their throat and say this is ridiculous. I think

:10:08. > :10:13.people will make a stand. If Donald Trump wants to come to the UK, let

:10:14. > :10:18.him come, it is not really John Bercow, is right to speak out and

:10:19. > :10:21.talk about Donald Trump like that. Parliament is not sitting this week

:10:22. > :10:24.but when MPs return next week we will no further Karl McCartney has

:10:25. > :10:29.been successful in persuading his colleagues to support a motion of no

:10:30. > :10:32.confidence against the speaker. Tim Iredale, BBC Look North, Lincoln.

:10:33. > :10:35.We will be talking more about this on Look North at 10:30pm tonight.

:10:36. > :10:37.I will be speaking to the Hull Labour MP Karl Turner

:10:38. > :10:52.who says the Speaker John Bercow is right to criticise Donald Trump.

:10:53. > :10:57.If you are interested in that one, half past ten tonight here on BBC

:10:58. > :11:00.One. Hospital services in Hull

:11:01. > :11:03.and East Yorkshire have been rated as "requiring improvement"

:11:04. > :11:05.by the Care Quality Commission - There have been past

:11:06. > :11:09.issues with bullying. But the inspectors found

:11:10. > :11:11.a better staff culture. They said staff treated

:11:12. > :11:13.patients in a caring way, But they said the shortage of nurses

:11:14. > :11:17.was evident and the trust still needed to meet national

:11:18. > :11:22.standards in A But we need to recognise

:11:23. > :11:26.that the CQC have raised the bar in terms of what they are looking

:11:27. > :11:34.for and there has been a huge amount of work going on to get us pointed

:11:35. > :11:39.in the right direction. I'm confident we are now in a place

:11:40. > :11:42.where we can actually move Mixed picture on the unemployment

:11:43. > :11:45.figures out today... In the Yorkshire and the Humber

:11:46. > :11:48.region, 137,000 people were out of work and claiming benefit

:11:49. > :11:51.in the last quarter of 2016 - But in the East Midlands,

:11:52. > :11:54.which includes Lincolnshire, the jobless total was 114,000 -

:11:55. > :12:03.that's up 6,000. Police activity's continued

:12:04. > :12:07.at a Lincolnshire firing range after officers began seizing weapons

:12:08. > :12:09.from the site on Monday. It's after the Home Office revoked

:12:10. > :12:12.a firearms licence held by an arms dealer on the Skydock

:12:13. > :12:14.site at Faldingworth. Lincolnshire Police has said it's

:12:15. > :12:16.working with military experts to seize the weapons

:12:17. > :12:25.to ensure public safety. There are 45,000 veterans

:12:26. > :12:29.in Lincolnshire and many of them are elderly and lonely,

:12:30. > :12:32.and can go weeks without Now a new scheme which is "buddying

:12:33. > :12:38.up" volunteers with ex-servicemen Organisers say it's a great way

:12:39. > :12:44.to reach those who need help Every Wednesday, Peter

:12:45. > :12:54.comes to meet Patrick They've only known each other

:12:55. > :12:59.a short time but have I enjoy the swapping of stories

:13:00. > :13:03.and talking about his exploits. He has told me stories about the war

:13:04. > :13:06.which I never knew, so, no, all of his history

:13:07. > :13:10.about his exploits with the radio and the Americans and how far

:13:11. > :13:12.behind they were with some He joined the Army straight

:13:13. > :13:30.after leaving school and was a signals operator

:13:31. > :13:34.during the Second World War. I'm one of the oldest ones there,

:13:35. > :13:37.I think, so very, very few people these days would have gone

:13:38. > :13:45.to Normandy on D-Day. Patrick has difficulty

:13:46. > :13:47.walking and can't drive, another reason he's so grateful

:13:48. > :13:50.he has Peter who can take him out of the house to places such

:13:51. > :13:53.as the Camaraderie Club in Lincoln, where he can meet other

:13:54. > :13:57.ex-servicemen and women. He looks forward to it every week

:13:58. > :14:02.and he's not the only one. Well, my wife died and I

:14:03. > :14:05.was alone for six years It's the loneliness during the week

:14:06. > :14:09.- I'm living on my own - and when I come here it is a break

:14:10. > :14:12.in the week. How do you think you would feel

:14:13. > :14:16.if you were not able to come I live on my own, I have been

:14:17. > :14:22.a widow over 20 years, so, you know, If you are not used to seeing people

:14:23. > :14:29.very often, then walking into a room But the thing about this new scheme

:14:30. > :14:34.is it enables volunteers to befriend veterans one-on-one and then

:14:35. > :14:36.they can slowly reintroduce No one likes to admit

:14:37. > :14:42.they are lonely and especially the veterans, they have that keep

:14:43. > :14:45.calm and carry on spirit that they've always had

:14:46. > :14:46.throughout the war. There are 45,000 veterans

:14:47. > :14:48.in Lincolnshire alone It is hoped that with more

:14:49. > :14:52.volunteers like Peter, even more elderly veterans can be

:14:53. > :14:55.helped across Lincolnshire. Laura Foster, BBC

:14:56. > :15:10.Look North, Lincoln. Let us hope so and let us hope that

:15:11. > :15:15.the publicity helps them. Good luck to everyone working on that. If you

:15:16. > :15:22.know a story or think there is a story we should know about, send us

:15:23. > :15:23.an e-mail and give us a phone call and see if we can get it on the

:15:24. > :15:24.television. It costs thousands to clean up -

:15:25. > :15:28.now people living on a Hull estate say litter's making

:15:29. > :15:31.their lives a misery. Gladys - who was born before

:15:32. > :15:34.women got the vote - celebrates reaching 105 with a tune

:15:35. > :15:56.from a brass band. Exactly 6:45pm. Tonight 's

:15:57. > :15:59.photograph is of Flamborough. Thank you for that one, another one

:16:00. > :16:09.tomorrow night around about the same time.

:16:10. > :16:12.It is good that you are wearing this outfit, it prompted a little bit of

:16:13. > :16:19.chitchat. One viewer has said can you tell Paul, I calmly used-car

:16:20. > :16:25.salesman. I am not dodgy and certainly do not dress like him. I

:16:26. > :16:33.will tell you what, who is more untrustworthy, me or a second-hand

:16:34. > :16:41.car dealer? His final line is, even Darren put you to shame! Well, he

:16:42. > :16:45.does wear some nice ties, unlike you, Peter! Over the next 24 hours,

:16:46. > :16:49.looking bright and breezy, we have had 12 degrees across the South of

:16:50. > :16:55.Lincolnshire this afternoon. Still looks set for 15 or 16 degrees early

:16:56. > :16:59.next week if all goes to plan, a touch of spring is on the way. There

:17:00. > :17:03.is the chart on Friday. Looking very nice with the ridge of high

:17:04. > :17:07.pressure, that means we will be dry. Quite cloudy at times but the Bobby

:17:08. > :17:11.sunshine Tour, and a lot of fine weather over the weekend. In the

:17:12. > :17:15.last few hours it has turned out to be very wet across parts of

:17:16. > :17:21.Lincolnshire. That trend continues on its journey North eastwards. Wet

:17:22. > :17:25.for a time across Lincolnshire and in East Yorkshire. That rain out of

:17:26. > :17:29.the way the evening, certainly by midnight and conditions will clear

:17:30. > :17:32.up. The second half of the night will be dry with clear spells, the

:17:33. > :17:38.wind will pick up and we will see temperatures are around 4 degrees,

:17:39. > :17:45.five Celsius. The sun rises in the morning at 7:19am. That is the time

:17:46. > :17:48.of the next high water. A fairly straightforward forecast tomorrow,

:17:49. > :17:52.it is bright and breezy with variable cloud and some sunshine.

:17:53. > :17:56.The risk of one or two match hours pushing in from the West but very

:17:57. > :18:02.isolated features. The emphasis for most of us is on a good deal of dry,

:18:03. > :18:06.albeit quite windy weather. A look at the top temperatures, once again

:18:07. > :18:10.into double figures just about everywhere. The exception will be

:18:11. > :18:16.Bridlington Bay. 10 Celsius across a wide part of our area, 50

:18:17. > :18:19.Fahrenheit. Cloudy at times first thing on Friday, otherwise dry and

:18:20. > :18:24.brightening up with sunshine. For the weekend, the emphasis on dry and

:18:25. > :18:31.reasonably bright weather. Early next week, a taste of spring. That

:18:32. > :18:36.is the forecast, Peter. I am getting half a dozen complaints from

:18:37. > :18:39.second-hand car dealer now! You are more popular with the teachers! I

:18:40. > :18:48.will see you tomorrow. Residents on a Hull estate

:18:49. > :18:50.say litter is making Around eight tonnes of rubbish

:18:51. > :18:54.is picked up in the city every day. But one councillor says cutbacks

:18:55. > :18:57.mean there aren't the resources to deal with a growing

:18:58. > :18:59.volume of rubbish. This is supposed to be a green space

:19:00. > :19:03.for families to enjoy and through which children

:19:04. > :19:05.walk to school. But this area of Bransholme has

:19:06. > :19:08.become plauged with litter. There is a lot, yes,

:19:09. > :19:13.it is mainly kids, though, isn't it? If there were more bins I think

:19:14. > :19:19.there would still be Generally, it is, all over

:19:20. > :19:22.Hull it is disgusting. On this street the problem

:19:23. > :19:24.has become so bad, some You know, they are getting sick

:19:25. > :19:29.of living with rubbish. I mean, you can see the settee,

:19:30. > :19:32.it must have took more effort dumping that than picking the phone

:19:33. > :19:35.up and asking the council It is not nice, it is not

:19:36. > :19:40.nice for us at all, not Why should we, why should we have

:19:41. > :19:44.to live with all of this? It is getting worse, yes,

:19:45. > :19:47.and I think it will get worse. What we have got to start telling

:19:48. > :19:50.people is we are getting so many millions of pounds taken off us

:19:51. > :19:53.from the government that we cannot deliver what we used

:19:54. > :19:55.to because we do not Just walking around parts

:19:56. > :19:59.of Hull's Bransholme estate and the extent of the litter

:20:00. > :20:02.problem is clear. There is everything from bottles
