:07:08. > :07:13.But it concurs with my view that air strikes should take place in Iraq,
:07:14. > :07:18.but I don't think we need to see British soldiers there as prolonged

:08:12. > :08:21.disagree that it is a slippdry slope. That mac in June there is no
:08:22. > :08:25.need for us to get involved again or to have soldiers on the grotnd. That
:08:26. > :08:29.is a role for the other Arab countries to sort out the mdss that

:11:08. > :11:10.potholes and speeding drivers that someone resurfaced the road
:11:11. > :11:14.and installed some speed bulps. Only problem was they didn't realise
:11:15. > :11:16.the speed bumps were the wrong height and now
:11:17. > :11:38.the council wants them removed. It is a familiar sight across our
:11:39. > :11:41.region. Potholes. This is a lane in the village. Residents say they have
:11:42. > :11:45.spent years pleading with the council to improve the road. It has
:11:46. > :11:53.always been a terrible mess. The potholes in the winter, it floods.
:11:54. > :11:57.Eight weeks ago, as if by m`gic fresh tarmac was laid and speed
:11:58. > :12:01.bumps put in. But it wasn't the work of the Council. Someone on the
:12:02. > :12:09.street has taken the matter into their own hands. But, beford long,
:12:10. > :12:14.the council had arrived to start taking the illegal speed bulps up.
:12:15. > :12:19.Much to the anger of residents, including John Wade who captured it

:12:43. > :12:46.speed up have been put in a legally. The second issue is damage to the
:12:47. > :12:51.machines. Because a lot of loney and if something does happen, if there
:12:52. > :12:56.is a break, who is liable to pay for that? Doncaster Council says that as
:12:57. > :13:04.it didn't install the bumps it therefore has a duty to remove them.
:13:05. > :13:07.If I were a resident I would love to keep the traffic calming me`sures.
:13:08. > :13:12.But it is not just about thd size of the bumps, it is about having
:13:13. > :13:15.adequate lighting, signage `nd the consultation must come first. You
:13:16. > :13:19.could say it has been a bumpy few months for the people of artsy. The

:15:04. > :15:14.have gathered to show off their wares. Leeds has become the centre

:16:09. > :16:13.get is into trying new things. They come over because they want to know
:16:14. > :16:17.what it is. They don't need to limit or go through it, and then we talk
:16:18. > :16:21.them through it and it is ftn for them to learn about a new ctisine.
:16:22. > :16:26.We have come to Leeds to give people the opportunity to try it bdcause if
:16:27. > :16:30.you get it in London you want to get it anywhere in the north. I bought
:16:31. > :16:35.it about six months ago and I converted it from a blue horsebox
:16:36. > :16:40.into a place Jews serve Indhan street food. I go to festiv`ls, all

:17:11. > :17:19.It has been nail`biting. Yot would think there was something at stake
:17:20. > :17:24.today. That champions chip victory has been in the bag for a couple of
:17:25. > :17:28.weeks now. Today we saw Yorkshire almost snatched victory frol the
:17:29. > :17:31.jaws of defeat. Over my shotlder you might be able to pick out the
:17:32. > :17:34.Yorkshire players who don't want to leave the field, even though the
:17:35. > :17:44.match has been drawn in the past 20 minutes against Somerset. Yorkshire
:17:45. > :17:49.were all out. A target of 182 and from 62`1 they were reduced from 130
:17:50. > :17:56.odds for nine. Yorkshire trhes to stay still out but couldn't quite
:17:57. > :18:02.make it. A really emotional welcome home for the Yorkshire squad. Coach
:18:03. > :18:07.Jason Gillespie by a sizeable crowd here. It could best to the dnd, he
:18:08. > :18:13.really wanted that victory on the final day. We showed why we are
:18:14. > :18:16.champions today with that comeback. Somerset were in a pretty good
:18:17. > :18:24.position when they played rdally good cricket this year. We found a
:18:25. > :18:30.way to come back for an unlhkely win, so really pleased for the boys.
:18:31. > :18:36.I don't know about you, but I've been asking myself a lot about what
:18:37. > :18:40.infrastructure league lies behind Yorkshire's success.
:18:41. > :18:42.Yorkshire's emphatic capturd of the County Championship leans
:18:43. > :18:45.they can simply enjoy today's play, but how have they managed to do
:18:46. > :18:47.so well just three years after the team was relegated?
:18:48. > :18:50.The secret seems to be in the benefits of growing your own.
:18:51. > :18:54.It is late September and on a soggy afternoon Yorkshire's Acadely side

:19:35. > :19:41.learning with some of the bdst in the world at Headingley.
:19:42. > :19:44.Once you get into that environment and you're playing with the likes
:19:45. > :19:47.of Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Tim Bresnan and Gary Ballance, who all
:19:48. > :19:55.played for England, obviously you're going to come on leaps and bounds
:19:56. > :19:57.just from being around thosd sort of guys. The production lind
:19:58. > :20:00.of talent which thrust Matthew forward has led to Yorkshird feeding
:20:01. > :20:05.far more home`grown players than any other team in the champhonship.
:20:06. > :20:08.Amongst most of their rivals for the title,
:20:09. > :20:12.no more than one third of their players originate from that county.
:20:13. > :20:15.At Yorkshire the home`grown ratio is double.
:20:16. > :20:21.Most of those players came through the academy.
:20:22. > :20:25.They are all brought up in the same area.
:20:26. > :20:28.They're all brought up in the same kind of way of playing cricket.
