:01:31. > :01:35.services have closed so far. It has been quite a six months for

:01:47. > :01:53.targets to the tune of �20 million. Others cannot assess whether they
:01:53. > :02:00.will not overspend. Job cuts are run away. In spring, the estimated
:02:00. > :02:09.five-and-a-half 1000 jobs would go. That means thousands more to come.

:03:29. > :03:34.are a lot worse. By Amanda -- angry. The respite centre in Rotherham

:06:08. > :06:16.local government. They get -- so many of the cuts have not taken
:06:16. > :06:20.hold. So many councils are planning on how to cut jobs and services.
:06:20. > :06:29.They are in shock about the scale of cuts. They're playing devil's
:06:29. > :06:36.advocate. A loss of public funding is bad. If you put yourself in the
:06:36. > :06:44.government, fiscal prudence is right. A large public sector has
:06:44. > :06:48.brought down Greece. We have got to marrowbone and the public sector.
:06:49. > :06:52.The Government is in many ways sticking to its plan because it
:06:52. > :06:59.understands the problems in the euro-zone. On a local level,
:06:59. > :07:04.councils need to have clarity about their budget. They cannot respond
:07:04. > :07:07.in a structurally coherent manner to the scale of the cuts. The
:07:07. > :07:16.reduction in the scope of citizenship means that most people
:07:16. > :07:21.who pay tax insure on what their government can do. And the North
:07:21. > :07:29.here, we're talking about Labour or hung councils. Will there be a
:07:29. > :07:39.disaster next May? The line between Conservative-held councils and
:07:39. > :07:44.Labour councils will harden. Some areas will turn Labour. They

:08:08. > :08:16.ground after a fire. I York GP practice has caused
:08:16. > :08:19.controversy by asking patients to pay privately. Doctors at Haxby and
:08:19. > :08:24.Wigginton cannot afford to provide services.
:08:24. > :08:30.There were concerns this could be a new trend due to a squeeze on
:08:30. > :08:35.finances and NHS over halls. It is quite a short letter but it
:08:35. > :08:39.is created quite a big fuss. This practice wrote to 30 patients
:08:39. > :08:47.waiting for minor surgery and told them it would not be available on
:08:47. > :08:56.the NHS. That has upset people and a number of ways. Most think the
:08:56. > :09:06.NHS should still be free. It is not on. You pay your taxes. You end up
:09:06. > :09:06.
:09:06. > :09:14.paying more money out. I would not be happy. If it is minor surgery,
:09:14. > :09:19.you would think twice about having it done. It is like glasses, teeth.
:09:19. > :09:23.They are pushing more towards private. The letter lists four
:09:23. > :09:30.private companies that could carry out the procedures. One is owned by
:09:30. > :09:36.this practice. Politicians, patient groups and the primary care trusts
:09:36. > :09:40.are worried that creates a potential conflict of interests.
:09:40. > :09:44.very important principle that doctors have to be aware that there
:09:44. > :09:53.is potential conflict of interest and working in NHS and private work.
:09:53. > :09:59.That must be managed. Concerns have also been expressed that
:09:59. > :10:02.information given to the NHS is being used to target potentially
:10:02. > :10:08.private patients. The surgery insists they have done nothing
:10:08. > :10:16.wrong. Our patients have been left without a service. We have written
:10:17. > :10:22.to them to tell them about services. If they did not have that option,
:10:22. > :10:25.we would they go? Whatever one does agree on is that they are in a
:10:25. > :10:35.difficult economic climate. Decisions like this will have to be
:10:35. > :10:44.made far more widely and far more often.
:10:44. > :10:54.Is this going to be a sign of the times? It could be. The NHS has
:10:54. > :10:55.
:10:55. > :11:01.reorganised. NHS managers control budgets and commission services.
:11:01. > :11:05.That responsibility and the budgets has been transferred to GPs.
:11:05. > :11:09.Critics of this reform says that bills and a potential conflict of
:11:10. > :11:16.interest. GPs have been encouraged to do minor surgery and their
:11:16. > :11:26.surgeries. There is the potential of a GP saying to a patient and
:11:26. > :11:31.then providing that service. The news legislation is said to give
:11:31. > :11:36.clear guidance. This is to let patients nor their need is based on
:11:36. > :11:41.clinical need. You can imagine an outcry of patience. They have paid
:11:41. > :11:46.in and this has been available on the NHS. Why should we pay now?
:11:46. > :11:52.This is at the heart of the issue. The NHS had huge increases in the
:11:52. > :11:59.past but has now been asked to be efficient. �20 billion worth of
:11:59. > :12:06.savings between now and 2015. Waiting times are increasing and
:12:06. > :12:11.some services cannot be provided. We need a big debate about what
:12:11. > :12:16.their NHS can do and what it can do in the future. Like when we paid
:12:16. > :12:23.for a dental care or spectacles. the moment, everyone can do
:12:23. > :12:27.different things. A prisoner has been jailed for life
:12:28. > :12:32.for killing an inmate at a prison near York. Damien Fowkes must serve
:12:32. > :12:35.at least 20 years for the manslaughter of child killer Colin

:12:39. > :12:42.attempted murder of the storm killer Ian Huntley at a prisoner in

:13:15. > :13:19.councils are or disputing who should pay for all the costs.
:13:19. > :13:27.A piece of history was lost in Bradford today. They used to be
:13:27. > :13:31.hundreds of working mills. One is being knocked down.
:13:31. > :13:36.The blaze ripped through the disused building on Fulton roared
:13:36. > :13:44.in the city centre last night. It caused major disruption with roads
:13:44. > :13:50.closed. You may have seen the pictures.
:13:50. > :13:56.This was a major fire. 100 firefighters tackling it. Many have
:13:56. > :14:02.been back today. Now, the priority is to make this site a safe. They
:14:02. > :14:12.have been working for hours because there have been concerns that this

:14:14. > :14:21.danger -- this building is in danger of collapsing. It was once a
:14:21. > :14:29.proud part of that city's heritage. The Mill on Thornton wrote blazed
:14:29. > :14:37.fiercely last night. This view from the national media museum shows how
:14:37. > :14:47.close the plains where to a theatre. Roads were closed, traffic diverted

:14:53. > :14:59.and the area diverted. The flames The fire fighters are right on the

:15:11. > :15:16.the hotel. We literally came out, I had my phone and my charger, and
:15:16. > :15:21.that was it. We were moved to the Hilton hotel for about half-an-hour
:15:21. > :15:26.and shifted to another hotel, and it was really inconvenient.
:15:26. > :15:31.hours later, the demolition team were called in encase the building

:16:18. > :16:19.
:16:19. > :16:29.There was major disruption. It is a sad end for want of that city's...
:16:29. > :16:48.
:16:48. > :16:51.I think it is a beautiful noise. In sports now, there were penalties

:17:12. > :17:16.Our real drama with the Huddersfield Bradford drama.
:17:16. > :17:20.It was a superb diving header, unfortunately at the wrong end.

:17:30. > :17:37.The home side pulled level again. To live into at the final whistle,
:17:37. > :17:47.patties needed to separate them. It has not had his fill's night, there
:17:47. > :17:49.
:17:49. > :17:54.was a save and a mess. The very first attack, another goal
:17:54. > :18:00.came an hour later. It was a deserved equaliser for the Miller's.
:18:00. > :18:04.It was all level in the 97th minute, that is looking a certainty. Ben
:18:04. > :18:10.Evans struck. Victories do not get any more last gasp and Sheffield.
:18:11. > :18:14.Finally, Notts County, a bad start for Chesterfield. A man and a goal
:18:14. > :18:19.down at the first half, but in an astonishing 12 minutes, they
:18:19. > :18:28.equalised, took the lead and then made it safe. Deservedly joining
:18:28. > :18:32.Bradford and the blades in the next round.
:18:32. > :18:36.Great stuff, a restaurant is trying to lure smokers back on to its
:18:36. > :18:40.premises by allowing them to Lynne Judge their habit while dining. The
:18:40. > :18:45.owners are not flouting the law, the service they are using is
:18:46. > :18:55.perfectly legal, it is called vaping. He to explain ate his
:18:56. > :18:57.
:18:57. > :19:07.Charlotte in Harrogate. What is An unusual sight, people smoking in
:19:07. > :19:10.
:19:10. > :19:20.the restaurant. That is the key in electronic device. If we look at
:19:20. > :19:21.
:19:21. > :19:26.this, it looks like a pen. -- it is smoking an electronic device. You
:19:26. > :19:30.breathe in a mist of nicotine rather than smoking tobacco. He has
:19:30. > :19:34.been vaping for four months. An unusual idea that has captured the
:19:34. > :19:38.imagination of people tried to give up smoking. A bit like David that
:19:38. > :19:45.runs the restaurant, you're convinced it had due to kick about.
:19:45. > :19:49.Yes, I was a smoker for 28 years. It was like smoking a cigarette. I
:19:49. > :19:55.still have a nasty nicotine habit but I feel better for trying these
:19:55. > :20:00.new cigarettes. That is the point, you still taking nicotine so it is
:20:00. > :20:03.still addictive. Yes, that is right, but they do not have the
:20:03. > :20:08.carcinogens and that are of a cigarette, but I'm still addicted
:20:08. > :20:15.to nicotine, I am sort of still smoking, but I am vaping now and I
:20:15. > :20:19.feel better for it. The Department of Health and the World Health
:20:19. > :20:23.Organisation say it is an untested device and it is early days, so
:20:23. > :20:27.people should be cautious, does it not worried that you do not know
:20:27. > :20:32.the full side effects? I understand that, but tenor that cigarettes
:20:32. > :20:36.kill, I smoked them, but if they're not too sure about this, I would
:20:36. > :20:44.rather take the risk. It is banned in some places, due think it could
:20:44. > :20:48.still be a risky appear -- a hit a peer? Some people say they will
:20:48. > :20:53.give it a go. It does not affect business because it is on the
:20:53. > :20:57.second floor, so it is all good. Very popular tonight. It will run
:20:57. > :21:07.here and harried at once a month of it is popular. A quirky idea, but
:21:07. > :21:10.
:21:10. > :21:13.in the future, this could be a familiar sight across Yorkshire.
:21:13. > :21:16.Now we've got a bit of music for you courtesy of two young lads from
:21:16. > :21:26.North Yorkshire. Robbie Bancroft and Nathan Moore from Sherburn in
:21:26. > :21:29.elmet were at a bit of a loose end over the summer. So to help pass
:21:29. > :21:32.the time they decided to make a video to put on YouTube. By the
:21:32. > :21:41.time they'd finished, they'd involved half the population of the
:21:41. > :21:47.village, dozens of locations and 59 pianos. We'll let them explain.
:21:47. > :21:55.I am Rabi, I played the piano. I am Nathan, and I used videos. This is
:21:55. > :21:59.what we made together. Rather than revising during steady
:22:00. > :22:08.leave, we decided to go around and film as many planners as we
:22:08. > :22:18.possibly could. -- as many pianos. We thought it will get 10, 15, 25,
:22:18. > :22:24.
:22:24. > :22:32.After a while when we started to run a bit dry, we went to a few
:22:32. > :22:39.random houses. Even if people find it strange, we think that maybe be
:22:39. > :22:44.give them a unique experience that snow Biddy else would probably have.
:22:44. > :22:52.This is my piano. I do not know what I will hear from you hear.
:22:52. > :22:58.we use your piano? No. The word spread around the community and the
:22:58. > :23:02.video is a result of that, really. This piano is older than the music
:23:02. > :23:08.we are playing on it. The caring people of the community allowed us
:23:08. > :23:11.into the home without knowing enough about us to want that.
:23:11. > :23:16.finished the whole thing during the summer and finished it a week
:23:16. > :23:22.before the end of school and put it on YouTube. It is a strange thing
:23:22. > :23:30.to be proud of, that we played 59 pianos. But we had a vision and we
:23:30. > :23:35.exceeded at it, so I am very proud of that. 59 Piano is!
:23:35. > :23:39.I keep thinking I would take playing the piano up again. Entry
:23:39. > :23:45.would like to learn weather forecasting, Paul!
:23:45. > :23:55.No answer to that, other than 11 degree spray you live tomorrow. 22
:23:55. > :24:20.
:24:20. > :24:26.What you mean by a big sky? To Meara, looking much colder, some
:24:26. > :24:36.heavy showers with hail and son thunder. Looking at the isobars,
:24:36. > :24:38.
:24:38. > :24:42.all the way from the Arctic Circle. A wind chill, unsettled. You can
:24:42. > :24:46.see the band of cloud, and shower cloud coming behind it much cooler
:24:46. > :24:51.air. Some sharp bursts coming through the Dales. The weather
:24:51. > :24:55.front will push to the East this evening and overnight. Patchy at

:26:04. > :26:10.-- we share a changing room. I nearly broke my neck on these shoes.
