:02:41. > :02:43.in our hospitals who have worked so hard to raise standards over

:02:44. > :02:48.I think what we have got here is a real fatal state

:02:49. > :02:50.of leadership in the hospital, we now need some certainty

:02:51. > :02:52.about who is going to run the teams going forward,

:02:53. > :02:58.we need to know that the hospital has an action plan.

:02:59. > :03:00.And an action plan is what they have got.

:03:01. > :03:03.They are being given lots of help, including peer support from another

:03:21. > :03:23.I had my son in hospital for one week and I cannot say bad

:03:38. > :03:39.they need to bring them out of special measures

:03:40. > :03:44.Problems for one of our hospital trusts there, and tonight there's

:03:45. > :03:46.problems at another, this time in Lincoln.

:03:47. > :03:51.Well, they have been so sort of A doctors he had to declare an

:03:52. > :03:56.internal critical incident. That means they were in danger of not

:03:57. > :04:03.being able to provide safe services. Managers blame a recent change in

:04:04. > :04:07.tax rules which means agency work is less attractive. Linkin relies on

:04:08. > :04:12.agency Doctors. We have had to draft in doctors from other departments

:04:13. > :04:18.plus rely on support from colleagues in Nottingham and Lester. The advice

:04:19. > :04:21.is if you're not seriously ill or injured, stay away from A Thank

:04:22. > :04:26.you very much indeed. Small traders in Hull city centre

:04:27. > :04:28.want compensation for the disruption that has been caused

:04:29. > :04:30.during the ongoing One shop owner has told BBC

:04:31. > :04:34.Look North that it has been an absolute nightmare,

:04:35. > :04:36.causing damage to their building The Federation of Small Businesses

:04:37. > :04:40.wants the council to give people Our business correspondent

:04:41. > :04:43.Leanne Brown reports. It's been two years since work

:04:44. > :04:45.started to transform Hull city centre, and during that time some

:04:46. > :04:48.business say takings have been down People have stopped coming

:04:49. > :04:58.into the town centre because of all the people

:04:59. > :05:01.and all of the barriers. And also the damage to the front

:05:02. > :05:04.of the shop and the side of the shop, where the cement has

:05:05. > :05:06.stuck to the paint, They are taking bits

:05:07. > :05:09.of wood off and everything. When it is finished and will look

:05:10. > :05:12.brilliant, I must admit. The footfall will begin

:05:13. > :05:14.to come back again. The work is almost complete,

:05:15. > :05:21.but one cafe owner says she won't see any of the benefit,

:05:22. > :05:23.despite enduring the disruption... They have finished the paving

:05:24. > :05:26.which is lovely in the square Sadly, it finishes here,

:05:27. > :05:30.so we have a lovely wrap and then it goes on to this state

:05:31. > :05:32.which looks absolutely dreadful. As you can see, we've got

:05:33. > :05:35.a lovely new lamp post, which has been put in front

:05:36. > :05:46.of my sign. Those that represent

:05:47. > :05:48.small businesses are now As you can hear, it is fairly

:05:49. > :05:52.chaotic and it has been like that any city centre

:05:53. > :05:54.for the last two years. Many of our members have been really

:05:55. > :05:57.adversely affected by these works and what we want

:05:58. > :05:59.is to be fairly compensated. There is a mechanism

:06:00. > :06:01.for the City Council to refund some of the rates

:06:02. > :06:14.they have paid. The council says it will help

:06:15. > :06:16.with any damage caused by the contractor and that

:06:17. > :06:18.businesses have already had at least a 10% reduction

:06:19. > :06:20.in their business rates. Those businesses in the city

:06:21. > :06:23.centre have saved over Obviously, I have a little bit

:06:24. > :06:26.of sympathy, but I think So far this year we have seen over

:06:27. > :06:31.800,000 visitors to the city, now, that is a phenomenal increase

:06:32. > :06:33.and compared with two, So, as the city centre

:06:34. > :06:41.is transformed, it's hoped it An acid spill on a ferry travelling

:06:42. > :06:53.to Hull caused part of the ship P say the hydrochloric acid leak

:06:54. > :06:57.was minor and from a freight vehicle Fire engines met the ferry when it

:06:58. > :07:09.arrived in Hull early this morning. Campaigners in Boston claim

:07:10. > :07:11.they are going to learn self-defence classes

:07:12. > :07:13.because Lincolnshire County Council Tonight, a meeting took place

:07:14. > :07:16.in the town with residents angry The county council says it's

:07:17. > :07:20.being done to save money and Lincolnshire Police say

:07:21. > :07:33.there is no evidence of an increase I think the streetlights should be

:07:34. > :07:39.put back on. It is so dark. I feel scared. I have put solar panel

:07:40. > :07:46.lights up. You look out and cannot see across the road. It is scary. My

:07:47. > :07:52.daughter was knocked into the ditch. A car speeding did not see her. The

:07:53. > :07:55.road is not wide enough two cars. No pavement, Northern Lights

:07:56. > :07:57.Matt Warman is the MP for Boston and Skegness.

:07:58. > :08:00.After the meeting, I asked him whether the council is right

:08:01. > :08:11.well, it is right to try to spend money as efficiently as we can. We

:08:12. > :08:19.individually and what is the right individually and what is the right

:08:20. > :08:23.policy for that. If it was a labour council doing this, you wouldn't be

:08:24. > :08:29.taking this lying, you would be against us. But you are minded to

:08:30. > :08:33.support the county council? This is not a party political matter.

:08:34. > :08:37.Tonight, we saw the three main parties agree we should make

:08:38. > :08:44.sensible decisions right for each area. A blanket approach is not

:08:45. > :08:46.right. There are some areas where we can be more economical than others.

:08:47. > :08:53.Those in the meeting were saying this is your government's fault. Do

:08:54. > :08:59.you access that? We have to live within our means. When it comes to

:09:00. > :09:04.an issue like streetlights, we have to make sure people feel safe and

:09:05. > :09:12.asked a. It is right to say we will look at this again. The councillors

:09:13. > :09:17.said he don't cut streetlights, they would have to cut something else. In

:09:18. > :09:21.other words, they don't have enough money. They have already looked at

:09:22. > :09:24.whether they made the right decision in another area. They will make the

:09:25. > :09:30.right decision based on pop an area needs. It is bespoke and sensible.

:09:31. > :09:35.There is evidence they should be changing the lights here. What about

:09:36. > :09:36.the people learning self-defence in Boston. Are they going over the top?

:09:37. > :09:51.It is not something I have heard. I think should look at crime figures

:09:52. > :09:55.which are going down. People have the right to feel safe as well as be

:09:56. > :10:03.safe. We have to take that into consideration as well. Thank you.

:10:04. > :10:09.I have good news. Lots of fine weather to come over the next couple

:10:10. > :10:14.of days. It looks warm over the weekend with temperatures more akin

:10:15. > :10:19.to June or July. It will be chilly once again out there tonight. Fine

:10:20. > :10:22.and dry. A bit of cloud filtering in other parts of Lincolnshire. Rural

:10:23. > :10:29.temperatures could be cooler than this. A bit of a chilly start to the

:10:30. > :10:33.day tomorrow. Dry and fine day with a good deal of through the day.

:10:34. > :10:36.Staying fine, dry and bright into the afternoon with further spells of

:10:37. > :10:45.sunshine. Temperature is doing quite well. Getting up to around 14-16 in

:10:49. > :10:51.reach above 20 degrees. We are back at 6:25am.

:10:52. > :11:12.Goodbye. Hello. There was some warm sunshine

:11:13. > :11:16.around today, but it's set to get even warmer this weekend. 18 Celsius

:11:17. > :11:20.in London this afternoon. This was the scene in Chiswick, much quieter

:11:21. > :11:24.than it was on Sunday for the boat race. Under the cloud for example

:11:25. > :11:27.here in Cumbria, temperatures struggled to make double figures.

:11:28. > :11:31.Through the night we're going to hang onto a lot of cloud across
