Labour is facing the "fight of its life" in the forthcoming

:00:00.:00:13.

That's according to Grimsby's MP Melanie Onn.

:00:14.:00:15.

Lincolnshire's politicians have been debating some of the key issues

:00:16.:00:18.

in the campaign including Brexit and Immigration.

:00:19.:00:19.

More from our Political Editor Tim Iredale.

:00:20.:00:24.

The first weekend of the general election campaign has seen local

:00:25.:00:27.

Lincolnshire Conservatives are hoping voters will support

:00:28.:00:29.

Theresa May's bid to secure a stronger mandate

:00:30.:00:31.

The key thing with this general election is a vote for the

:00:32.:00:48.

Conservatives gives Theresa May a stronger hand with which to the

:00:49.:00:52.

shaped our best deal as leave the European Union.

:00:53.:00:53.

But Ukip claim the government can't be trusted on immigration.

:00:54.:00:59.

The Prime Minister is backsliding. One of the biggest issues was

:01:00.:01:04.

immigration and we will have uncontrolled immigration after

:01:05.:01:05.

Brexit with this Tory government. And do Labour MPs really

:01:06.:01:07.

expect to turnaround There is absolutely no doubt that

:01:08.:01:15.

this is going to be the fight of our lives. It is going to be incredibly

:01:16.:01:20.

tough. However, you don't go into an election admitting any kind of

:01:21.:01:21.

defeat whatsoever. We'll hear from other parties

:01:22.:01:23.

as the campaign progresses, but it's clear that Lincolnshire

:01:24.:01:25.

is set for a long election battle. A company which makes safe havens

:01:26.:01:28.

to protect workers from terrorist attacks has won a Queens Award

:01:29.:01:30.

for International Trade. Crewshield in Hull say the Citadel

:01:31.:01:32.

looks like a shipping container, but is equipped to allow staff

:01:33.:01:35.

to hide safely from terrorists. Our Business Correspondent

:01:36.:01:38.

Leanne Brown has more. It looks like an ordinary shipping

:01:39.:01:54.

container but inside, it's a different story. As you can see, the

:01:55.:02:01.

corn -- container doors are standard but they are disconnected. The main

:02:02.:02:06.

locking system obviously is on the inside. You can secure yourself when

:02:07.:02:12.

you go in and what you have here is a sliding door. Once you come in,

:02:13.:02:19.

you are totally protected. You have got all the communications you

:02:20.:02:23.

require and battery banks. It looks like any other container. It just

:02:24.:02:29.

fits into its environment. The terrorist would never know you

:02:30.:02:33.

wording here. They are designed for workers on ships under threat from

:02:34.:02:36.

pirates or gas plants like this one in Algeria where 40 people were

:02:37.:02:43.

killed by terrorists in 2013. Each unit can hide more than 20 people

:02:44.:02:48.

and they come complete with a toilet, first aid, air conditioning

:02:49.:02:52.

and hidden surveillance. The cameras are hidden in tiny little holes,

:02:53.:02:57.

allowing you to monitor the threat from any terrorist. And there's not

:02:58.:03:00.

much chance of them getting inside. If someone put a hand grenade on the

:03:01.:03:05.

roof, this is literally what it would do. It would blow the top off,

:03:06.:03:10.

but then the steel on there, as you can see, is unaffected. The company

:03:11.:03:15.

has to be secretive about who has their creations but they have been

:03:16.:03:17.

used and they have been successful. Large crowds have turned out in Hull

:03:18.:03:21.

to see a reenactment of a pivotal moment that started

:03:22.:03:23.

the English Civil War History enthusiasts put

:03:24.:03:26.

on a performance showing how the city gates were closed

:03:27.:03:29.

to royalist forces in 1642. The sights and sounds

:03:30.:03:31.

of the 17th century, grabbing the attention

:03:32.:03:39.

of Sunday shoppers in Hull. It was really nice marching. You

:03:40.:03:55.

could see people who did not know this was on, just out doing some

:03:56.:03:59.

shopping and their jaws hit the floor as we all marched past. I

:04:00.:04:03.

think a lot of them were wondering if we have had a time slip and they

:04:04.:04:05.

have gone back to the 17th century. It's exactly 375 years since Hull

:04:06.:04:08.

turned it's back on a King, an act which led to English Civil

:04:09.:04:11.

War. Today, hundreds gathered to see

:04:12.:04:13.

the moment re-enacted. It is nice for people to get

:04:14.:04:25.

really good. Since we became city of really good. Since we became city of

:04:26.:04:30.

is great that lots and lots of is great that lots and lots of

:04:31.:04:33.

people are coming here and seeing what a great city it is.

:04:34.:04:34.

The story of Sir John Hotham's act of defiance

:04:35.:04:36.

was performed at the place where it happened, by the remains

:04:37.:04:39.

It was kind of looking a bit sad really. Glitter was a. Hopefully

:04:40.:04:52.

this new space with the banners and the interpretation that is going in

:04:53.:05:00.

will signal a new story. And people using it more often.

:05:01.:05:01.

Work to preserve Beverley Gate is nearly complete.

:05:02.:05:03.

Hull's current residents gathered by it to see a piece

:05:04.:05:05.

of their cities history brought back to life.

:05:06.:05:07.

In Rugby League, Hull FC beat league leaders Castleford this afternoon.

:05:08.:05:10.

They had prop Liam Watts sent off in the first half but won 26-24.

:05:11.:05:20.

Time now for the weather forecast. You may have seen a bit of this

:05:21.:05:29.

today. It was a decent day with some bright spells. Overnight, we are

:05:30.:05:34.

switching gears a bit. We will see some spots of rain. Turning a bit

:05:35.:05:42.

breezy. A cloudy damp start to the day tomorrow with further outbreaks

:05:43.:05:45.

of rain. Something a bit brighter later on. Top temperature 11

:05:46.:05:50.

Celsius. It will turn colder over the next few days. A few wintry

:05:51.:05:55.

showers. I will be back with more at 10:20pm.

:05:56.:06:04.

We had a beautiful day across most of UK today, but there's a taste of

:06:05.:06:20.

winter on the way. Even a little bit of snow. Its forecast for one or two

:06:21.:06:24.

places. This is the forecast tonight. We're watching this cold
