following a change in government Last year, | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
the county council ruled Culbria out of any involvement in the sdarch for | :04:28. | :04:31. | |

apologised after a woman waited nearly four hours for | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
an ambulance, following an `ccident It was nearly three hours bdfore | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
a paramedic arrived, and another hour before an ambulance took her | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
to hospital, just ten minutes away. Last month the head of the North | :05:00. | :05:02. | |

services union Unison says The issue of lack | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
of resources is putting our members and the Trust at almost breaking | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
point and the question needs to be asked who was responsible | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
for these lack of resources? Is it the government, | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
with their imposition of the cost improvements plan, | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
forcing the Trust to make s`vings? Is it the Department of Health, | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
with their new workforce plan and commissioning arrangements that | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
is causing the lack of resotrce The North East Ambulance Service | :06:04. | :06:07. | |

gone to the Teesside swimmer, Aimee Willmott ` who put in a terrific | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
performance in the pool tonhght up It was billed as the battle | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
between Willmott of England and Scotland's Hannah Miley, | :06:42. | :06:47. | |

heats but had plenty left in Aimee, from Middlesbrough, | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
set the early pace. At the halfway mark it is Ahmee | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
Willmott leading from Hannah Miley. She was still in front | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
at the three`quarter mark. But Miley put | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
in a storming finish and whhle Aimee set a new personal best timd she had | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
to settle for silver. I knew it was going to be stch | :07:18. | :07:22. | |

of my body screaming and I could Still, silver is certainly | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
