And on BBC One, we now join the BBC's news teams where you are.

:00:00.:00:00.

Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North.

:00:00.:00:00.

The headlines in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire tonight:

:00:00.:00:10.

Jailed for 19 years at Hull Crown Court -

:00:11.:00:12.

the foster carer who sexually abused children in his care.

:00:13.:00:16.

We can't show him to protect his victims,which

:00:17.:00:19.

A month until the general election, the mother of a woman abused

in her care home says funding for vulnerable adults

:00:28.:00:29.

They are just literally stripped her of her dignity, called her a witch.

:00:30.:00:44.

They need to unlock funds to get into the social care system so that

:00:45.:00:48.

there is better training, better pay for the carers. Hazard

Tonight we put her questions to the people who want

East Riding. Washed down the sink into our rivers

- warnings over household chemicals Another dry we can store with a hint

:01:11.:01:22.

of rain towards next weekend. Join me for the very latest.

:01:23.:01:31.

A former Hull foster carer has been sentenced to 19 years in prison

:01:32.:01:35.

for child sex offences, including the rape of his own granddaughter.

:01:36.:01:41.

The man, who's 64, can't be named to protect his victims who also

:01:42.:01:45.

Sarah Sanderson was at Hull Crown Court and is with me now.

:01:46.:01:52.

How did these offences come to light?

:01:53.:02:02.

In 2011, the neighbours of this former foster carer became concerned

:02:03.:02:04.

and recorded noises which they heard through the walls.

:02:05.:02:09.

This recording was submitted to Humberside Police and it revealed

:02:10.:02:12.

sexually inappropriate remarks made by this man to the foster children

:02:13.:02:15.

This then led to the man being de-registered

:02:16.:02:22.

There was insufficiant evidence to prosecute the man at the time,

:02:23.:02:27.

so no further action was taken until one of the victims revealed

:02:28.:02:31.

what had happened to them and the case was re-opened.

:02:32.:02:36.

In 2015, the man was charged with ten counts of sexual

:02:37.:02:39.

offences against children, which he pleaded guilty

:02:40.:02:42.

And recently a judge found him guilty of a further two

:02:43.:02:47.

charges of sex offences against his granddaughter.

:02:48.:02:51.

What did the Judge have to say in court today?

:02:52.:02:55.

His Honour Jeremy Judge Richardson QC today sentenced the man

:02:56.:02:57.

He added that some sort of enquiry should be undertaken

:02:58.:03:03.

by Hull City Council, given the seriousness of this case.

:03:04.:03:07.

But Hull City Council has told us that a review has already been

:03:08.:03:11.

carried out and this did not identify any missed opportunities

:03:12.:03:14.

Despite this, Judge Richardson will be sending his sentencing

:03:15.:03:21.

remarks to the Chief Executive of Hull City Council.

:03:22.:03:25.

As Judge Richardson sent this former Hull foster carer down,

:03:26.:03:29.

he told him that he must now be punished for what the judge

:03:30.:03:32.

It's exactly a month until the general election,

:03:33.:03:40.

and you have been telling us what you want the priorities

:03:41.:03:44.

We're creating a peoples' manifesto that we will take

:03:45.:03:48.

to the candidates who want your vote in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.

:03:49.:03:53.

Already lots of you have said better care for elderly and vulnerable

:03:54.:03:58.

We'll find out what the parties are offering, but first

:03:59.:04:02.

Maddie Jobson's mum was mistreated in a care home.

:04:03.:04:07.

they need to lock phones to get intimate care system. My mother had

:04:08.:04:33.

her own shop in bed late, she was a mental health nurse. She has always

:04:34.:04:38.

looked after other people. Unfortunately she was diagnosed with

:04:39.:04:43.

Alzheimer's and we had to put her in some way, a residential home. We had

:04:44.:04:50.

suspicions because the lack of staff, it was a great concern, and

:04:51.:04:56.

we decided to put a camera in. Within a couple of days, the camera

:04:57.:05:00.

revealed three carers mocking my mum, being very unkind, stripped her

:05:01.:05:08.

of her dignity. They took bandages of her arms, put something on her

:05:09.:05:12.

head and called her a witch. It is terrible to think all these people

:05:13.:05:17.

who have worked hard and paid into the system are now fighting for

:05:18.:05:25.

basic care. They... My mum was left to rot. Fortunately she had a good

:05:26.:05:30.

family who actually saved her life, and now she's getting good care. But

:05:31.:05:35.

this should be for everybody. They should all be getting basic good

:05:36.:05:36.

care. Our health correspondent

:05:37.:05:38.

Vicky Johnson is with me How big of a problem is providing

:05:39.:05:41.

care for elderly people and how are the politicians

:05:42.:05:45.

going to tackle it? Adult social care is one

:05:46.:05:51.

of the biggest problems currently It's estimated there'll be

:05:52.:05:53.

a ?2.6 billion funding gap in providing adult social care

:05:54.:05:59.

in England by 2020, because of pressures from an ageing

:06:00.:06:03.

population and the cost of paying Between 2001 and 2011 the number

:06:04.:06:06.

of adults living over There have been warnings from some

:06:07.:06:14.

leading charities, like Age UK, that our social care

:06:15.:06:23.

system is in crisis. With an increasing number

:06:24.:06:26.

of residential homes closing, a growing shortage of care workers

:06:27.:06:29.

and a rapidly ageing population. And these pressures are being keenly

:06:30.:06:34.

felt in Beverley and Holderness, where the over 65s are expected

:06:35.:06:38.

to form a third of the population The five main candidates

:06:39.:06:41.

in this constituency all have their own views on how

:06:42.:06:47.

these challenges should be tackled Graham Stewart is standing

:06:48.:06:50.

for the Conservatives. But it is making existing system

:06:51.:07:05.

work better, integrating health and social care, unlocking further

:07:06.:07:08.

investment. Be good egg is only last budget. Going forward with an ageing

:07:09.:07:13.

population and a real desire to see standard rise, we've got to do more

:07:14.:07:16.

and that is why we'll come forward a plan.

:07:17.:07:16.

I would like social care to be more local and in the home. It would be

:07:17.:07:26.

much better if people wear more train, coming into the home, it

:07:27.:07:30.

would be a better environment for the elderly and for those living. I

:07:31.:07:35.

also think that the funding could, from taxation is. Denis Healey is

:07:36.:07:42.

the Lib Dem candidate. All levels of an come tax could be raised, that

:07:43.:07:49.

would create extra funds, that will be spent by ours on adult social

:07:50.:07:53.

care. More importantly, here in the East Riding, the council will get

:07:54.:08:01.

?12 million a year extra. Noes the Green party has fielded Richard

:08:02.:08:07.

Howarth. We'll bring it inside the NHS to a single publicly provided

:08:08.:08:11.

and publicly funded NHS. We would find that from fair taxation. Most

:08:12.:08:17.

people would be unaffected, higher taxes by the wealthy. With devolved

:08:18.:08:26.

powers, there is the option of raising more taxes but we're also

:08:27.:08:30.

looking a fairer spent on the existing tax pot. A disproportionate

:08:31.:08:35.

amount has already spent on the south-east, we want to see the

:08:36.:08:40.

regions receive an equal amount per capita. The candidates have just a

:08:41.:08:44.

month to persuade voters that their plans will help alleviate this

:08:45.:08:48.

social care crisis, whereas it is estimated that more than 900 workers

:08:49.:08:51.

quit their jobs every day. So, one of the key issues for both

:08:52.:08:53.

politicians and the care industry is recruiting

:08:54.:08:56.

and retaining enough staff. Almost 48% of care workers leave

:08:57.:08:58.

within a year of starting. Up to 220,000 care

:08:59.:09:01.

workers in England are paid below the

:09:02.:09:05.

national minimum wage. Almost 50% of home care workers

:09:06.:09:08.

are on a zero-hour contract. And with our rapidly

:09:09.:09:14.

ageing population, these are just some

:09:15.:09:16.

of the challenges which What do you think about the problems

:09:17.:09:18.

we have been hearing There's still time to let us know

:09:19.:09:35.

what you think should be the one priority for our next Prime Minister

:09:36.:09:41.

after the general election. There are plenty of ways

:09:42.:09:49.

for you to get in touch with your election demands

around here are attractive to people want to take their motorbike for a

:11:53.:11:55.

spin, but police are concerned because they say quite a number of

them are going way fast. One rider was filmed in reaching speeds of 180

:12:00.:12:05.

mph over the bank holiday weekend. They a camera fitted to an unmarked

these drivers are putting themselves at huge risk because they don't have

:12:14.:12:18.

any protection against oncoming vehicles. They are risking their own

:12:19.:12:21.

lives, and unfortunately having been a traffic officer who has had to

:12:22.:12:25.

knock on a number of door to get some really bad news, it is not good

:12:26.:12:29.

for the families, the medical teams and everyone who suffers as a

:12:30.:12:34.

result. Two motorcycles have already died on the roads of East Yorkshire

:12:35.:12:38.

this year, police say because of those deaths are still being

:12:39.:12:42.

investigated, but they also say that although motorcycles only make up 1%

:12:43.:12:46.

of traffic on roads of East Yorkshire, they also account for 20%

:12:47.:12:51.

of road casualties. It is really important that motorcycle is known

:12:52.:12:54.

not just that they are being watched by those are not police motorbikes

:12:55.:12:59.

but they could be putting themselves and the public in grave danger if

they do break speed of 100 miles an hour class as police have seen in

the last couple of weeks. Another subject you may wish to

it is. You can remember when we opened the and Debbie Creek cloud

something late in the week and into the weekend, a bit of rain on the

chilly day today, northerly wind has bought cloud persistently all see,

just a light and variable breeze and we may well find later in the day a

the scarecrow Festival had the weekend. Do you see the words in the

:16:17.:16:20.

middle? Definitely full of culture. LAUGHTER

I'm also in brown shoes which I've never worn. Have a nice evening.

A multi-million pound investigation by the University of Hull is looking

:16:48.:16:49.

at how common household chemicals are damaging to the environment.

:16:50.:16:52.

Mud samples from rivers are being analysed for toxins that

:16:53.:16:54.

They include ingredients found in toothpastes and handwash and even

:16:55.:17:00.

Our Environment Correspondent Paul Murphy reports.

:17:01.:17:06.

This investigation is all about the martyr. The banks of the River Hull

:17:07.:17:11.

are just one location where researchers are taking samples.

:17:12.:17:16.

These will be carefully analysed for their chemical content. In history

:17:17.:17:22.

to be higher edge of sediment, so the concern for the longer period is

:17:23.:17:27.

that you can get a good indication of the post-industrial signals, the

:17:28.:17:33.

industrial influences of pollution. Before million pounds project is

:17:34.:17:37.

investigating the impact of commonly used chemicals on the environment.

:17:38.:17:42.

Take the example of hormones found in the contraceptive pill. The

:17:43.:17:47.

presence of this hormone can cause male fish to have female

:17:48.:17:51.

characteristics, which could have long-term effects on the fish

:17:52.:17:55.

population in most rivers. The chemical names might not be familiar

:17:56.:17:59.

but these substances are found in everything from toothpaste to hand

:18:00.:18:04.

washes to painkillers and pills. This contaminant end up in our

:18:05.:18:08.

waterways because sewage treatment plants do not have the technology to

:18:09.:18:12.

track them. But this project is not much more than research into

:18:13.:18:16.

potentially harmful chemicals. It is aiming to make ours all think more

:18:17.:18:21.

about deep others we are buying and the small print on the packet. The

:18:22.:18:27.

team is even developing simple indicators to test household

:18:28.:18:30.

products for harmful chemicals. People would think about products

:18:31.:18:36.

they are using and perhaps think about the Next Generation, your

:18:37.:18:39.

children, and whether you want them to be having to dealing with this

:18:40.:18:46.

big toxic soup. The impact of accumulating toxins in our waterways

:18:47.:18:50.

may perhaps be under estimated. This project could lead to changes in the

:18:51.:18:54.

content of household products that many of us use every day.

:18:55.:18:59.

Thousands of Scunthorpe United fans have missed out

:19:00.:19:01.

on a trip to Wembley, after the club's promotion hopes

:19:02.:19:04.

They were beaten in the play-offs by Millwall.

:19:05.:19:09.

Our sports reporter Simon Clark was at the game and he's here now.

:19:10.:19:12.

For a time it looked good for Scunthorpe United.

:19:13.:19:18.

They took the lead but then opponents Millwall took control

:19:19.:19:21.

There had been better days, this day there was one to forget. Beaten by

:19:22.:19:37.

Millwall, meaning no Wembley trip and no promotion. Got it wrong right

:19:38.:19:41.

from the start. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Of the two legs,

:19:42.:19:50.

maybe they had the better chances. Absolutely gutted. As much as ever

:19:51.:19:54.

been to, so I cannot comment, but not good. It started so well when

:19:55.:20:01.

the scoring was opened. But man of the match display by Millwall's

:20:02.:20:05.

Morrison signed equal at half-time. Morrison on hand to create the wall

:20:06.:20:11.

ayes second, and then he scored the decisive third. The size of because

:20:12.:20:16.

Stephen Dawson scored a second, but it was not enough for Scunthorpe

:20:17.:20:21.

United. So instead of preparing for a game at Wembley, the manager has

:20:22.:20:28.

instead to prepare his squad for another season in League 1. We've

:20:29.:20:33.

got the balance around the club, the supporters, they see the positive

:20:34.:20:37.

sides, that is what we have to do. Every season you try and improve on

:20:38.:20:40.

what you did the deer before. If we do that, we'll have to work well,

:20:41.:20:45.

but if we do it, we'll have had a good season. The former captain

:20:46.:20:49.

believes that good things could, some adversity. Players benefit from

:20:50.:20:54.

that. They might not think that now, they will go home and be

:20:55.:20:57.

disappointed, get support from their friends, but once they bounce back

:20:58.:21:05.

and return here in July, they will be back in form. But a season that

:21:06.:21:09.

promised so much ended with so little.

:21:10.:21:11.

Hull City's hopes of staying in the Premier League hang by a thread.

:21:12.:21:14.

Two goals by relegated Sunderland cost Marco Silva his

:21:15.:21:18.

unbeaten run at the K Com stadium and handed the initiative

:21:19.:21:21.

The League table makes grim reading, because if Swansea beat Sunderland

:21:22.:21:27.

and City fail to beat Crystal Palace, then the Tigers will

:21:28.:21:29.

For the match, we need to fight and to work and to win the next.

:21:30.:21:44.

Hull FC produced one of the comebacks of the season

:21:45.:21:47.

Trailing 22-0, Lee Radford's team, in yellow,

:21:48.:21:50.

found the form to score 33 points without reply.

:21:51.:21:53.

That result keeps Hull second in the table behind Castleford.

:21:54.:21:58.

And on Friday, you may remember, we looked forward to Goole rugby

:21:59.:22:01.

union's debut at Twickenham in the Junior Vase final.

:22:02.:22:04.

Well, Goole won 31-24 which will be a real fillip

:22:05.:22:09.

Work on three new murals is getting underway in Hull to commemorate

:22:10.:22:18.

Last year artists from Belfast painted a mural

:22:19.:22:24.

honouring Lillian Bilocca - the woman from Hull who led

:22:25.:22:27.

a successful campaign for better safety measures at sea.

:22:28.:22:31.

Three new murals are being added to Hessle Road

:22:32.:22:33.

An event rider from Louth has finished the best placed British

:22:34.:22:43.

rider at one of the toughest equestrian events in the world.

:22:44.:22:48.

Rosalind Canter says she feels 'the luckiest girl in the world'

:22:49.:22:52.

after finishing fifth at Badminton Horse Trials

:22:53.:22:54.

with her horse 'All Star B' who completed the event

:22:55.:22:56.

for the first time - a year after vets detected he had

:22:57.:22:59.

Jill Archbold has been to see the horse known at home as Alby.

:23:00.:23:10.

He is a horse happy to be at home, his Monday morning grazing in the

:23:11.:23:17.

Lincolnshire walls is his reward for jumping some of the biggest and

:23:18.:23:24.
