:00:00. > :00:15.There are calls tonight for care homes to be run by the Government
:00:16. > :00:17.after a dementia sufferer from East Yorkshire
:00:18. > :00:20.was forced to move four times in the last year of his life.
:00:21. > :00:23.Pat Maguire from Beverley says his father-in-law's condition
:00:24. > :00:27.worsened significantly because of the moves.
:00:28. > :00:29.A number of privately run residential homes in the area have
:00:30. > :00:33.closed in the last year and now Mr Maguire says adult social care

:00:42. > :00:44.Pat Maguire has spoken out after he and his family chose
:00:45. > :00:48.to find residential care in Beverley in East Yorkshire for his
:00:49. > :00:55.But because of issues surrounding closures and suitability,
:00:56. > :00:59.his father-in-law had to be moved four times after initially settling
:01:00. > :01:05.While we can't ever prove it, we honestly believe that the moves
:01:06. > :01:10.that he had to undergo affected him and made his condition worse.
:01:11. > :01:12.Yes, they give money to local authorities
:01:13. > :01:15.but it's the Government, through taxation, that ought to be
:01:16. > :01:19.caring, just as we expect them to do for small children,
:01:20. > :01:23.the young, we ought to be providing the same level of care
:01:24. > :01:31.Funding issues have been blamed for a number of care homes
:01:32. > :01:35.And earlier this month, Jeremy Corbyn said a Labour
:01:36. > :01:39.Government would take failing private care homes into public
:01:40. > :01:42.ownership in order to maintain social care protection.
:01:43. > :01:46.But the Conservative MP for Beverley and Holderness says
:01:47. > :01:50.The Government's absolutely committed to getting this right.
:01:51. > :01:53.If you look on the ground in Beverley, despite the current
:01:54. > :01:56.problems, in the next few weeks we're going to see new places coming
:01:57. > :02:00.forward and over the next years I expect to see a much improved
:02:01. > :02:03.situation and the Government is playing its part in doing that.
:02:04. > :02:30.In a statement, the Department of Health says...
:02:31. > :02:32.Meanwhile, for those who are dealing with current adult
:02:33. > :02:35.social care problems, that long-term solution
:02:36. > :02:46.Government officials have begun the process of culling of almost

:03:26. > :03:28.The proposal for the A63 includes sinking the main road into a deep
:03:29. > :03:31.cutting to improve the flow of traffic around the city.
:03:32. > :03:33.There'll also be a footbridge between the city centre
:03:34. > :03:39.Because the design is sinking the road seven metres in very,
:03:40. > :03:43.very poor ground conditions, we are quite rightly concerned
:03:44. > :03:47.with the history of schemes that have failed in the past but we've
:03:48. > :03:50.spent an awful lot of time with the contractors carrying out
:03:51. > :03:52.very detailed ground investigations and that has

:04:16. > :04:21.Healthy and friendly, these puppies were saved
:04:22. > :04:26.Their mum, Ruby, was rescued from a puppy factory.
:04:27. > :04:29.If they had been born there, they would have had no health checks
:04:30. > :04:32.and the breeders would have seen them as breeding machines.
:04:33. > :04:37.People get them and they come here and say I've got Jackahuahua
:04:38. > :04:40.and you're thinking you've got a cross breed dog.
:04:41. > :04:43.They don't see them as that, they market them as being
:04:44. > :04:48.Most of the time, you are getting a puppy that has never seen a vet,
:04:49. > :04:51.It's never been flead, never been wormed.
:04:52. > :04:54.Nothing, you've got no medical history at all,
:04:55. > :04:58.until you take it to your own vet and then they say there's all these
:04:59. > :05:01.Designer breeds like Pugs have become very popular.
:05:02. > :05:04.So puppies, like Topaz, who look a bit like Pugs,
:05:05. > :05:12.The Kennel Club estimates that up to 1.5 million
:05:13. > :05:16.sold by dealers in 2014 and these are likely to have

:05:22. > :05:25.Those dogs bought from pet shops, or the internet, are four times
:05:26. > :05:28.more likely to suffer from the potentially
:05:29. > :05:33.The problem is really, puppy farming is enabled
:05:34. > :05:38.This is puppies sold away from their mums.
:05:39. > :05:42.And, remember, the majority of puppy farms are legal, they're licensed.
:05:43. > :05:45.The majority of people selling without their mum
:05:46. > :05:50.As long as this chain continues, puppy farming is enabled
:05:51. > :05:56.These dogs now all have homes to go to and have been
:05:57. > :06:00.People who buy a puppy from a seller off the internet take the risk

:06:28. > :06:32.After a bitterly cold week it's set to get much less cold over
:06:33. > :06:35.the weekend but with that some cloud and rain, much more
:06:36. > :06:39.So through this evening and overnight, further spells
:06:40. > :06:42.of rain and drizzle, a lot of cloud holding temperatures
:06:43. > :06:45.up higher than they have been over the last few days,
:06:46. > :06:48.down to two or three degrees and all of this is much milder air
:06:49. > :06:50.which will continue to affect us through tomorrow.
:06:51. > :06:53.Through the morning cloudy with outbreaks of rain and drizzle.
:06:54. > :06:56.A slow improvement through tomorrow, drier conditions gradually
:06:57. > :07:00.developing, the rain becoming more light, patchy and tending to peter
:07:01. > :07:03.out through the day but I don't think we'll get very much
:07:04. > :07:06.brightness, I think we'll have to wait until after dark for these
:07:07. > :07:12.On Sunday, a fine start to the day, clouding over, the risk of rain.
:07:13. > :07:28.That is all from the lake deemed this evening. Look North is back at
:07:29. > :07:30.5:20pm. I hope you can join us then. For now, have a lovely evening.
:07:31. > :07:46.Goodbye. Good evening. Not many would argue
:07:47. > :07:50.that January hasn't been dry, but today, many of us had our first
:07:51. > :07:54.significant rain for some time, because the transition is on from
:07:55. > :07:59.cold, Continental dry air to milder Atlantic air, but the transition is
:08:00. > :08:03.a slow one. So we have had ice today, and freezing fog, in northern
:08:04. > :08:07.England. We had a little sunshine as well in Norfolk, but we still have
:08:08. > :08:13.the cold air around and about in the north. All this rain you can see,
:08:14. > :08:16.which is giving is a wet day in some areas, 10-15 millimetres of rain has
:08:17. > :08:20.fallen, as it comes north there could be some winter it issues. Snow
:08:21. > :08:26.already falling over Scotland, possibly over northern England,
:08:27. > :08:30.possibly some sleet over lower areas and fog. Not particularly nice, and
:08:31. > :08:34.some icy conditions to contend with late in the night across Northern
:08:35. > :08:38.Ireland, as the rain clears away. Again, a word of warning there could
:08:39. > :08:39.be some ice around in the morning if
