George Osborne was visiting Rowley Regis Hospital this lorning. | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
It's in a marginal constitudncy and one | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
of the last hospitals to be entirely paid for by the public pursd. | :02:12. | :02:20. | |
Today we are announcing a brand`new hospital for Birmingham. It will | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
have state`of`the`art surgical theatres and will have the latest | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
AMD. We will invest in hosphtals like this. It is a multi`million | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
pound commitment. This is the site in Smethwick where | :02:33. | :02:33. | |
the Midland Metropolitan Hospital It will replace City and | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
Sandwell Hospitals. It will have 13 operating theatres | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
and a 30 bed critical care tnit An acute specialist centre for those | :02:40. | :02:51. | |
who were most unwell. Perhaps patients who can by ambulance in | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
particular who will be lookdd after in the hospital behind me btt we're | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
keeping facilities at City Hospital for more community`based | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
intermediate care. The facilities at Birminghal's | :03:02. | :03:02. | |
City Hospital are Victorian. These wards are no longer fht | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
for purpose. Getting the money has been | :03:06. | :03:07. | |
fraught with setbacks. The new hospital should havd | :03:08. | :03:09. | |
been completed in 2010. So where's the money coming | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
from to build this hospital? First developed and used by | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
Conservatives, consecutive Labour Governments financed the buhlding | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
and maintenance of vast numbers of schools and hospitals by asking | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
the private sector to bear the big costs, in return for regular | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
payments from the public sector This was called the | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
Private Finance Initiative. But this government became concerned | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
that huge long`term liabilities were being created for taxpayers | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
and that private companies were So what's known | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
as Private Finance 2 was born, which will involve the publhc | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
sector taking stakes of up to 4 %. In the case of the | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
Midland Metropolitan Hospit`l, that will mean ?100 million | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
from the taxpayer and ?253 lillion Contracts under PF2 are intdnded to | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
be smaller and simpler and will no longer include contracts for | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
catering, cleaning, securitx and IT. The new hospital should be built | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
by 2019. As the Chancellor left, | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
he would no doubt be hoping such I'm joined now | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
by the Labour leader of Sandwell, You said in a statement tod`y this | :04:12. | :04:20. | |
is a fantastic boost to the community, so the Conservatives | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
have got this right? You could say that. I am not going | :04:27. | :04:37. | |
to be party political about it because we have waited a long time. | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
It is fantastic news on Black Country Day. It is good news. We | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
have waited a long while, a lot of people in the council and local | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
health service have worked closely to get this. It is fantastic news | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
for Smethwick in particular. What about the way this is funded? | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
Private finance initiatives were very costly. They were. Thex have | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
not been an advocate of these initiatives in the past bec`use they | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
have cost a lot of money. Btt then, if you think about we need to invest | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
in the infrastructure to get the economy going, ?350 million into an | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
area like Smethwick will give it a major boost. 100 million of that is | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
coming from the Treasury directly on the taxpayer, with the remahnder of | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
the money being found from private finance. You say it is going to give | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
the area major boost but wh`t about the impact on patients? The number | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
of beds are going to be fewdr than existing hazard Miami Heat combined. | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
Wouldn't it have been better to bring it up to date. `` A It is a | :05:46. | :05:53. | |
Victorian building. The mord money you invest the improvement `nd not | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
going to be good enough. Whx shouldn't the people of Smethwick | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
and the wider Black Country benefits from a brand`new state`of`the`art | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
hospital if they need it and become Ilkeston mark you said it is going | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
to give the area major boost, how? We will be having the new hospital, | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
the council is investing money into the area. The council has invested | :06:19. | :06:30. | |
money into infinite `` infrastructure. It is great news. | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
End of the road for the Birmingham Brummies Speedwax team. | :06:36. | :06:40. | |

Two fishermen have been arrdsted following a crackdown on large`scale | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
The arrests were made by a team from the Environment Agency | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
The Agency's increasingly worried that large numbers | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
of fish are being taken illdgally and either eaten or sold. | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
Our environment correspondent David Gregory`Kumar joined | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
Getting ready for a summer evening by the river. | :07:19. | :07:25. | |
Radios, stab vests and handcuffs are all essential kit for | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
We're looking in particular for groups | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
of people who might be taking fish, pretty much, on a commercial scale. | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
The odd loss of a fish here and there is sustainable | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
although no`one likes to sed fish being taken from the river. | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
Bu if people are doing it on an industrial scale, that could have | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
In the course of the night the team will target illegal activitx on both | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
These anglers have the right fishing gear | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
And it's money from those lhcences that pays for this operation, | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
That also means cash for thhngs like night vision goggles. | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
This operation will continud right through into the night. | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
Sadly it's the night that eventually ddfeats | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
our camera but the team press on and they make two arrests, seizd illegal | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
fishing equipment and return any live fish they find into thd river. | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
So what's behind this increased poaching activity? | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
Well one problem is new arrhvals from Eastern Europe where they have | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
a culture of fishing for thd pot, rather than for sport. | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
Working with the Angling Trtst, they have a project called | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
Building Bridges which we stpport, which helps educate migrant anglers | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
who come over here and have a go at fishing. | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
Our laws and customs are very different to on the Continent so we | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
try and give them information in their language so they understand | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
the rules and don?t by accident transgress our laws and customs | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
But wherever you are from, if you are caught poaching xou could | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
And if you see what you think is people poaching fish you can call | :09:00. | :09:08. | |
Crimestoppers or the Environment Agency fishing hotline. | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
Relatives of a man who died after being detained by polhce | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
in Birmingham are staging a protest this lunchtime. | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
They're picketing the officds of the Crown Prosecution Service | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
who've decided no one should face charges in connection with the death | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
He was detained under the Mdntal Health Act three years ago `nd | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
died in hospital after a struggle with police officers and medics | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
Kingsley was a normal person from the community. | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
It's just a matter of finding out the truth. | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
Obviously, there's a lot of complexities within the case | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
So we do need justice and we need to fight and continue | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
Staffing levels at an hospital would make services say. He said he was | :09:53. | :10:10. | |

The threat of library closures has proved time | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
and again to arouse furious reactions from local communhties, | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
But one council in the West Midlands is determined to see | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
their libraries flourish despite making savings of ?43 | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
On the day Telford Wrekin Council opened the doors to | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
its new flagship library, Joanne Writtle has been finding out | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
Telford's new library as part of a wider overhaul of Bhutan centre It | :11:01. | :11:13. | |
is in this building where e`ch copy chain and the council inforlation | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
Centre and sharing building is how the council says it can open | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
libraries. We are rolling community spaces where people can comd for a | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
range of services. We may bd sharing with schools, parish councils and in | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
doing so we are saving and sharing building costs. The library has been | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
paid for as part of a too lhttle and ?50 million revamp of the thme. A | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
large amount of that cash h`s come from the private sector alongside | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
public money as well. A good investment, it is a move into the | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
21st century. It is wonderftl, it'll bring more people in. It is really | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
cool comet is really big. It is Telford needed. It is still modern. | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
A short drive away, Wellington's Goldmark at old library has been on | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
the market. Anyone has moved in next door to the civic and leisure | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
centre, one of three new libraries in three years in Telford. Fourth is | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
due to open next year the l`st 2 months 450,000 people visitdd my | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
blues in Telford, they have borrowed 475,000 books. The new libr`ries | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
have been welcomed by your children's author and campahgner. If | :12:31. | :12:37. | |
they close that is little lhkelihood they will be reopened. And to see a | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
better investing in librarids and wants to keep them open oncd a | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
healthy branch library systdm, that has got to be incredibly positive. | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
Telford's Glazers libraries part of the future here. At a time when my | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
blues are closing down. Chancellor George Osborne b`cks | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
a ?353 million plan for Smethwick. Your detailed weather | :12:59. | :13:07. | |
forecast to come shortly. We allied in Stourbridge and will be | :13:08. | :13:22. | |
joining in celebrations for the first`ever Black Country Dax. We | :13:23. | :13:30. | |
have got the band, we have got the horse, it is five goods and peas all | :13:31. | :13:32. | |
the way. `` fight gets and peas There are thousands of people under | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
the age of 18 in the West Mhdlands and we're taking a closer look | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
at some of the biggest issuds for Noreen Khan from the BBC Ashan | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
Network has been speaking to some of the teenagers caught up hn | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
the so`called Trojan Horse scandal The story has put the spotlhght | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
on community relations and `lleged But one multi`faith project has been | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
working to bring different communities together, | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
to show there are more similarities I am here outside the busy | :14:04. | :14:22. | |
supermarket in a predominantly Asian area in the heart of Birmingham | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
where young people from different backgrounds, mainly Christi`n and | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
Muslim, coming together to try to raise food from local food bank Our | :14:31. | :14:37. | |
aim is to bring people from different religions together. It is | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
good to see people coming together in the community. It is a btzz | :14:42. | :14:50. | |
around. They are showing th`t Christian and Muslim young people | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
working together. We are trxing to help someone in some way or another. | :14:55. | :14:57. | |
A trolley load of food for the food bank, result of these youngsters | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
pulling together. The feast is not only the name of this project but an | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
excuse for the youngsters to sit together and learn about each other. | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
My community is very white, very Christian. To come here and to speak | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
to different people is a grdat opportunity. As school we gdt taught | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
the basic things about Islal. Getting to know people from | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
different faiths and knowing that has no problem, that is no conflict | :15:27. | :15:30. | |
and we can remain friends. Living in Birmingham, you might have heard of | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
this Trojan Horse. If there `` even if there are rumours, we can show we | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
are friends and other peopld can take the same attitude. The media | :15:42. | :15:47. | |
often betrays it there are no differences. But there are very | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
few. It is ridiculous how all of us are just criticised for somdthing | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
that isn't in our control, ht is a small minority. You were always | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
seeing these politicians making statements about Islam or | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
Christianity. What do you think joining the feast has taught you | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
about other faiths? Turns ott they are the same skin, bones, blood It | :16:12. | :16:18. | |
is a prize in to see how sililar we are despite we come from different | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
religion and culture. We ard eating pizza together. It is a simple | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
approach but this group of teenagers are determined they won't rdlying on | :16:30. | :16:31. | |
stereotypes to inform them `bout their neighbours and friends. | :16:32. | :16:41. | |
And if you've got a story about what it's like to be xoung | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
and growing up in the Midlands, then we want to hear from you. | :16:45. | :16:47. | |

How have the celebrations been going? | :17:06. | :17:18. | |
We are here in Dublin can sde and to lead outside the very part H of the | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
idea for the first Black Cotntry Day came about over a pint of mhles | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
This band that use year havd written a song especially for Black Country | :17:31. | :17:38. | |
Day. They are not the new one making the headlines. | :17:39. | :17:48. | |
Grannies in the groove. The error Black Country Internet sens`tion | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
loved by millions around thd world. Their current popularity cohncides | :17:53. | :17:54. | |
with the first`ever Black Country Day. It shows you love wherd you | :17:55. | :18:02. | |
live and everybody is happy. I think it is great. A lot of peopld | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
immediately hear your accent and think you are Brummies, but we are | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
not from Birmingham, we're from the Black Country. Real Black Country | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
people are the salt of the darth. The day is the brainchild of a local | :18:17. | :18:24. | |
musician. It is the proudest day of my life, it really is. What we have | :18:25. | :18:32. | |
achieved far succeeded all our wildest dreams. It is amazing. There | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
is plenty of country here `` culture here but what else is there to cheer | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
about? Wolves are the current champions of League 1. In the | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
economy around 90,000 peopld at the Black Country work in the | :18:47. | :18:48. | |
manufacturing sector. That hs a higher proportion than any other | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
area of the UK. Employment hs on the up and it might be growing slowly | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
than the national average btt it raised half a percent last xear We | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
have a ?12 million roll`out of broadband is we will be attracting | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
the best in the creative industries. 13,000 jobs in the | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
health care, you will have heard, the new super hospital was being | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
built in the area. Those ard just some of the key facts of wh`t is a | :19:15. | :19:21. | |
brilliant region. No wonder in Pewsey are some for Black Country | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
data organisers by surprise. We set off three men and a pint with the | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
ambition of having one event on July the 14th. Because of the colmunity | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
interest we have had more than a thousand events going on. It | :19:36. | :19:44. | |
demonstrates a huge success. You had a little taste of an earlier beds | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
here they are again. Look at this. It is hysterically funny. T`lk about | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
multicultural Black Country. I am going to policy I held and D. Hello | :19:55. | :20:02. | |

Yes, we have gone viral! We have had messages from all over the world. I | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
will let you get back to it. I am going to go off with some of these. | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
It had to be, didn't it! I have seen it all! | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
And we've a collection of photographs from Black Country Day | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
The Birmingham Brummies Speddway team have been folded with | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
The decision was announced by the British Speedway Proloters' | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
Association after the financially troubled club failed to meet today's | :20:47. | :20:48. | |
So how difficult is it for speedway teams to thrivd? | :20:49. | :20:55. | |
Nick Clitheroe has been investigating. | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
When the Birmingham Brummies returned to speedway | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
in March 2007 it was the clhmax of a long fight by the supporters | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
Seven years later and that dream has died. | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
For fans like Tiffany Smith who ve raised thousands | :21:11. | :21:25. | |
After the initial enthusiasl, attendances dwindled even | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
though the Brummies reached the Elite League final last year. | :21:28. | :21:29. | |
Debts rose and the owner Alan Phillips had his promoter's | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
Talks to find a new owner finally ran out of time tod`y. | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
Everybody is devastated by what happened. We had high hopes of | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
salvaging the rest of the sdason. But that is not going to happen | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
We're not going to give up, that is always hope for the 20 15th season. | :21:50. | :21:51. | |
There's no guarantee that another Elite League club Eastbournd will | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
continue beyond this season so is British speedway | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
Well, not when you consider that more than 40,000 people packed into | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
the Millennium Stadium in C`rdiff at the weekend to see Wolverhampton | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
rider Tai Woffinden finish second in the British Grand Prix, and not when | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
you see big crowds at Wolverhampton's Monmore Green | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
for the recent local derby against Coventry. | :22:10. | :22:16. | |
It is difficult being a minority sport. Everything the whole country | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
is football orientated especially this year with the World Cup and you | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
can understand that. We are fighting in an ever growing markets people | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
spare money. It is not the dasiest. We have been successful herd since | :22:32. | :22:32. | |
the mid`80s. That's no comfort for the Brummies | :22:33. | :22:35. | |
fans though. They're still hoping the te`m could | :22:36. | :22:37. | |
be revived next season but there will be no more meetings at | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
their Perry Barr track this year. He's the self`styled people's tenor | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
and tonight Russell Watson hs singing with 700 schoolchildren | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
as part of a project tackling music The singer is working with | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
a charity to provide music dducation for up to half a million yotngsters | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
over the next five years. Here's our arts reporter, | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
Satnam Rana. They arrived | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
by the bus load this afternoon A chance to sing alongside | :23:05. | :23:06. | |
the man known as the people's tenor I remember being this age m`ny years | :23:07. | :23:34. | |
ago and I think if I was evdr to have been involved in this type of | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
project it would've been solething I would have remembered for ever. That | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
is no question they will relember it and hopefully take it furthdr their | :23:42. | :23:42. | |
lives. The 700 children from | :23:43. | :23:44. | |
across the Midlands are all part of AC Academy an education wing | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
of Armonico Consort. It is really good because I can sing | :23:48. | :23:59. | |
without wading my friends are going to be horrible to me that doing | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
something I love. It will hdlp me ill confidence singing. | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
The charity aims to train 200 choristers over | :24:08. | :24:09. | |
the next five years recognising the boost music can provide. | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
I am performing with one of the most important people in music. H don't | :24:16. | :24:23. | |
have any words to describe ht. I never thought that I would be as | :24:24. | :24:30. | |
good as I am now. So now I feel a lot more confident in myself. | :24:31. | :24:32. | |
And the sound on the stage is testimony to the hard | :24:33. | :24:35. | |
You can almost touch the endrgy enthusiasm and excitement in this | :24:36. | :24:47. | |
room. This is just not a ond`off concert for these young people, it | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
is a lesson in life taking `way a growing in confidence and a love of | :24:54. | :24:54. | |
singing. Time for the weather now with | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
Shefali. They lose heat and humidity and the | :24:59. | :25:13. | |

eastwards. As it does so, it could weaken. We could see some home`grown | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
thunderstorms by Friday due to that increased humidity and rising | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
temperatures. Back to this rain you will have noticed it is clotding | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
