:00:04. > :00:09.Good evening. Welcome to North West Tonight.
:00:09. > :00:13.Our top story: Counting the cost of the rioting as the bill for
:00:13. > :00:16.policing looks set to hit �10 million.
:00:16. > :00:22.With forces already facing cuts, there is a call for Government help
:00:22. > :00:27.to meet the extra costs. Also tonight: Heavy rain causes
:00:27. > :00:30.flooding in parts of Cumbria and North Lancashire.
:00:30. > :00:34.Home sweet home as the country's best-known Street moves up the road
:00:34. > :00:41.to a new location by the Manchester ship canal.
:00:41. > :00:45.You can arrive in your own yacht. We could do that. Can I ride in
:00:45. > :00:52.yours? Yes. Join me in Arne side to find out
:00:52. > :01:02.how Morecambe's footballers get on with the ancient art of flatty-
:01:02. > :01:04.
:01:04. > :01:09.The final cost of policing the riots in Manchester and Salford
:01:09. > :01:12.could be as high as �10 million according to the Greater Manchester
:01:12. > :01:17.Police Authority. The unprecedented events of last month and the damage
:01:17. > :01:22.the rioters caused will potentially cost the equivalent of 2% of the
:01:22. > :01:25.overall police budget. The footage of rioters looting stores will
:01:25. > :01:31.remain in our memory for years to come. Who will foot the bill? What
:01:31. > :01:35.is the latest on how the courts are dealing with the guilty? Nina
:01:35. > :01:39.Warhurst has been looking into the figures. Extraordinary scenes,
:01:39. > :01:45.partly where you were. Remind us of the scale of the disruption?
:01:45. > :01:52.don't think many of us will forget what we saw that night, not just
:01:52. > :01:57.here but beyond. That rioting started 155 fires, more than 100
:01:57. > :02:00.premises were damaged and more than 300 arrests were made. Greater
:02:00. > :02:04.Manchester Police are only just in a position now to understand the
:02:04. > :02:07.full-scale of the costs of that damage.
:02:07. > :02:11.The current known cost is �5 million. They are saying it could
:02:11. > :02:15.double to �10 million. How are they coming to that figure? It seems
:02:15. > :02:21.like a lot of money, doesn't it? Perhaps it is not when you consider
:02:21. > :02:24.that 900 officers were out on duty that night, not just from Greater
:02:24. > :02:28.Manchester Police, but from ten other forces. There is also the
:02:28. > :02:31.damage to police equipment, the claims from 20 police officers who
:02:31. > :02:36.were on duty, the cost of tracking down offenders as well as claims
:02:36. > :02:40.made under the Riot Act. This dates back to the 1880s. It means when
:02:40. > :02:45.damage is done during riots, the police can be liable to foot the
:02:45. > :02:49.bill. We spoke to the Greater Manchester Police Authority. They
:02:49. > :02:57.said this expense could run-up to �10 million and it couldn't come at
:02:57. > :03:00.a worst time. It is a big setback. We have made �134 million worth of
:03:00. > :03:07.cuts, �49 million this year. It is difficult to move from back office
:03:07. > :03:14.to front office. We have a tight budget. Something like this shows
:03:14. > :03:19.how fragile budgets can be. These claims can still be made until 20th
:03:19. > :03:23.September, Debenhams haven't made their claims yet? Let's go back
:03:23. > :03:28.down to the individuals who were at the root of the problems that day.
:03:28. > :03:36.You have been at a case of a judo player in front of a judge? That's
:03:36. > :03:42.right. Today, in court, we saw a 17-year-old who lived in Audenshaw.
:03:42. > :03:46.He has a 9% attendance record at college and he is a promising judo
:03:46. > :03:50.players with aspirations of reaching Team GB. That night he was
:03:50. > :03:54.found with his pockets bulging. He had picked up �50 worth of
:03:54. > :03:58.jewellery that he found on the floor, he looted a shop for �66
:03:58. > :04:02.worth of cigarettes. As a result, he was sentenced today to eight
:04:02. > :04:05.months in a youth offenders institute. The judge said he
:04:05. > :04:09.understood that he was not part of the group that instigated the riots
:04:09. > :04:13.and that he had an excellent future ahead of him. He said the public
:04:13. > :04:17.must be aware that those who choose to take part in rioting, looting
:04:17. > :04:27.and public disorder must know they will be punished and must know that
:04:27. > :04:29.
:04:29. > :04:35.punishment will be severe. Heavy overnight rain caused
:04:35. > :04:40.widespread flooding in Cumbria and North Lancashire today. High winds
:04:40. > :04:46.brought down cables and trees. One of the worst-hit areas has been
:04:46. > :04:51.Galgate where a river threatened to overflow into a village.
:04:51. > :04:55.The River Conder at Galgate near Lancaster. Local families and
:04:55. > :05:00.businesses were preparing for the worst after two inches fell in nine
:05:00. > :05:05.hours. It stopped short of flooding the village but there were some
:05:05. > :05:15.victims. This bungalow's owner was too busy clearing up to talk to us.
:05:15. > :05:16.
:05:16. > :05:20.A garage was inundated when the Conder broke its banks. We have a
:05:20. > :05:24.car stuck on the ramp. We had to move all the panels up to higher
:05:24. > :05:29.ground. We had work booked in for today as well. It is a bit gutting.
:05:29. > :05:34.You don't think it is going to happen. Then it's - the next minute
:05:34. > :05:39.it is upon you. On the M6 near Lancaster, two lanes were closed
:05:39. > :05:44.because of flooding. In Clitheroe, 1,800 electricity customers lost
:05:44. > :05:50.power. There were severe delays on the
:05:50. > :05:53.West Coast Main Line after flooding at Garstang. Some smaller stations
:05:53. > :05:57.were hit. I have come to get on the train. There is a lot of flooding
:05:58. > :06:01.because of the weather. British Rail are putting on some buses to
:06:01. > :06:06.Lancaster and then we will see what the situation is and then possibly
:06:06. > :06:12.a bus to Preston. What can you do if it rains hard? It floods. If a
:06:12. > :06:16.tree falls down, it happens. Drivers faced difficulties getting
:06:16. > :06:20.to work. Bolton Road at abbey village. The A6 at Broughton near
:06:20. > :06:26.Preston just two of dozens that saw their drains overwhelmed.
:06:26. > :06:32.Forecasters say there is more to come. We are going to use sandbags
:06:32. > :06:40.or more stone to stop water coming. It's still in the fields next to us.
:06:40. > :06:45.If we get more tonight, that's it. It will be more on floor.
:06:45. > :06:48.Dianne is here. Are we in for more of this? We are in for a night of
:06:48. > :06:53.heavy showers. Yes, it continues to come as we go through the night,
:06:53. > :07:00.which is not good news for those rivers and for the people who live
:07:00. > :07:01.alongside them. We have one flood warning in place and ten
:07:01. > :07:04.floodwatches. The showers will continue through the night and
:07:04. > :07:12.tomorrow afternoon we have a longer spell of rain. The wet weather will
:07:12. > :07:15.keep on coming. A full forecast at the end of the programme.
:07:15. > :07:18.Rebecca Leighton, the nurse freed last week after she was accused of
:07:18. > :07:22.causing the deaths of patients at Stepping Hill Hospital, has signed
:07:22. > :07:27.up with the publicist Max Clifford. Mr Clifford said she was anxious to
:07:27. > :07:30.tell her side of the story and was currently considering offers from
:07:30. > :07:35.the media. She was arrested after saline drips
:07:35. > :07:38.were tampered with. Three patients died. She was released on Friday
:07:38. > :07:42.when the Crown Prosecution Service said there was not enough evidence
:07:42. > :07:52.to secure a conviction. A three month consultation period
:07:52. > :07:59.
:07:59. > :08:03.is beginning on plans to cut an extra 160 jobs at Stockport Council.
:08:03. > :08:06.An online petition calling for the release of Cabinet papers relating
:08:06. > :08:13.to the Hillsborough disaster won't be debated before the party
:08:13. > :08:15.conferences later this month. Even though it's secured the 100,000
:08:15. > :08:20.signatures necessary. The backbench Business Committee says it would
:08:20. > :08:23.only be given a timeslot if it was requested by MPs at their weekly
:08:23. > :08:27.meeting this afternoon. But none did.
:08:27. > :08:32.The head of Darwen Vale High School where teachers went on strike this
:08:32. > :08:35.year has quit her job. Hilary Topey was suspended from her job while
:08:35. > :08:39.the council carried out an investigation. She has told the
:08:39. > :08:42.authority she won't be returning. The teachers walked out in April
:08:42. > :08:46.claiming they weren't being supported in dealing with the
:08:46. > :08:49.misbehaviour of some pupils. Campaigners fighting plans to
:08:49. > :08:53.privatise two hospitals on Merseyside have handed in a
:08:53. > :08:57.petition to Downing Street. More than 33,000 people have signed the
:08:57. > :09:01.petition, protesting about the idea of a private company taking over
:09:01. > :09:04.Whiston and St Helens Hospitals. They have obviously been very real
:09:04. > :09:10.worries that people have had about the prospect of privatisation, that
:09:10. > :09:14.is a very real fear that people have and it is absolutely essential
:09:14. > :09:19.that the Government understand that the people of the North West want a
:09:19. > :09:23.National Health Service free at the point of delivery and do not want a
:09:23. > :09:26.privatised Health Service. Next, Manchester City say they are
:09:26. > :09:30.investigating claims that their Chief Executive Garry Cook sent an
:09:30. > :09:34.offensive e-mail to the mother of defender Nedum Onuoha. Dr Antonia
:09:34. > :09:38.Onuoha, who is suffering from cancer, says the e-mail mocked her
:09:38. > :09:44.illness. Mr Cook has denied the claims, but it has led to media
:09:44. > :09:47.speculation over his position at the world's richest club.
:09:47. > :09:52.Garry Cook has had negative headlines before, this time if you
:09:52. > :09:56.believe the back pages, the future of his job is under scrutiny. It
:09:56. > :09:59.centres around an e-mail which this woman says she received from Cooks
:09:59. > :10:02.account. She is Dr Antonia Onuoha, the mother of City defender Nedum
:10:02. > :10:06.Onuoha and who negotiates with the club over his contract. She was
:10:06. > :10:11.filmed at the North West Sports Awards six years ago when her son
:10:11. > :10:20.got the accolade for Best Newcomer. She now has cancer and she says the
:10:20. > :10:24.e-mail she received was supposed to have been sent to Brian M a, rwood.
:10:24. > :10:29.It is understood Cook denied sending the e-mail and thinks his
:10:29. > :10:34.account was hacked -- Brian Marwood. Nobody from City was prepared to
:10:34. > :10:39.comment. The club have issued a statement. It reads, "Follows
:10:39. > :10:42.allegations made by Dr Antonia Onuoha, subsequently reported in
:10:42. > :10:46.today's media, the club can confirm a board level review has been
:10:46. > :10:50.launched into the matter. It is also believed Dr Antonia Onuoha has
:10:50. > :10:53.written to both the FA and the Premier League asking them to
:10:53. > :10:59.investigate." Garry Cook has been an important figure at City since
:10:59. > :11:05.he joined the club three years ago and played a key role in bringing
:11:05. > :11:11.in Roberto Mancini as manager. has been a great success. He's
:11:12. > :11:12.enabled Manchester City to join the top table of European football. Had
:11:12. > :11:21.a cracking season at the end of last season and this season they
:11:21. > :11:25.have kicked on. Now, they have started work on a
:11:25. > :11:29.new residential development right beside the Manchester ship canal.
:11:29. > :11:34.The houses, a pub and corner shop will be brand-new. Yet, they will
:11:34. > :11:38.look very familiar. That gives it away. It's the new set of one of
:11:38. > :11:41.our oldest and favourite TV series, Coronation Street. This morning two
:11:41. > :11:50.of the Street's best-known residents were there to break the
:11:50. > :12:00.ground at their future home. It's a mistake.
:12:00. > :12:03.
:12:03. > :12:09.They have fought in it, loved in it, they've been born and died in it.
:12:09. > :12:13.They even had a train land on it! There is only one star, the Street.
:12:13. > :12:17.The Street is on the move. But not for the first time. The initial set
:12:17. > :12:21.was a flat put in the studio and then they built one that was a
:12:21. > :12:25.front and in 1982 the current one was built when the Queen and Prince
:12:25. > :12:28.Philip walked down on the first day that we used it. The new one will
:12:28. > :12:34.be next to the Imperial War Museum North on the Manchester ship canal.
:12:34. > :12:40.The man who created the soap saw the plans for the first time today.
:12:41. > :12:46.It is going to be wonderful. It is still exactly the same Street that
:12:46. > :12:53.Dennis Parkin designed. ceremonial ground-breaking before
:12:53. > :12:56.work starts. There is a man over there looking very bored waiting to
:12:57. > :13:03.get started. We have done the first holes. He will probably fill that
:13:03. > :13:08.in! You can arrive in your own yacht? We could do that. Can I ride
:13:08. > :13:11.in yours? Yes. Thanks. Of course you can. Across the water from the
:13:11. > :13:18.yacht and the set, a complex described by some architects last
:13:18. > :13:23.week as a blot on the horizon. Building design magazine has named
:13:23. > :13:27.it carbuncle of the year 2011. It is the BBC's new home in the north.
:13:27. > :13:31.Like it or not, programmes are already being made here. 900 BBC
:13:31. > :13:37.staff who used to work in Manchester or London have moved in.
:13:37. > :13:41.Many more including some very familiar faces are on the way. What
:13:42. > :13:47.do you think of it? It works for us. You get different views. The staff
:13:47. > :13:51.who are here are really excited. We have got lots of visitors. Do they?
:13:51. > :13:53.Do ordinary members of the public? Lots of people walk through the
:13:53. > :13:58.site because Coronation Street are coming as well. Remember what a
:13:58. > :14:08.calling card the Street is. We are expecting it to be good neighbours
:14:08. > :14:12.to us. The neighbours at Coronation Street move in in two years' time.
:14:12. > :14:17.I don't love you. Love never crossed my mind.
:14:17. > :14:22.Ooh! I love it. It is so good even now!
:14:22. > :14:27.Nice big picture of you over there. It is the only time I have ever
:14:27. > :14:33.been tall! Still to come: A class of their own - why the parents of
:14:33. > :14:38.these autistic children believe they need their own school.
:14:38. > :14:45.Bulldozers move in to create a bright new future for Bernhard
:14:45. > :14:48.Langer. -- for Lancashire County Cricket
:14:48. > :14:52.Club. As the first of those stories -
:14:52. > :14:56.parents of autistic children are trying to set up their own special
:14:56. > :14:59.school. They say the council isn't providing for their educational
:14:59. > :15:04.needs. They say their children who have difficulty communicating
:15:04. > :15:11.either have to travel or struggle in mainstream school. For the
:15:11. > :15:19.second of our reports, this from Kate Simms.
:15:19. > :15:25.Who is it? A few precious moments with their son, but for most of the
:15:25. > :15:29.time this is as close as Hilary and Alan get to Edward. A six-hour
:15:29. > :15:35.journey. The Hodgsons live in Macclesfield. Their son spends most
:15:35. > :15:39.of his time 250 miles away at a residential school in Dorset.
:15:39. > :15:45.very hard indeed. We never imagined that we would not have our children
:15:45. > :15:50.living with us. To have to make that decision at 11 was terrible.
:15:50. > :15:54.The worst decision we have had to make. That decision came because
:15:54. > :16:00.Edward's severe autism meant he couldn't cope with school routine.
:16:00. > :16:03.He needed a 365-day routine but the Hodgsons say there was no such
:16:03. > :16:08.facility near them. Cheshire East are providing for Edward in that
:16:08. > :16:13.they are paying for him to be at school in Dorset. But what we need
:16:13. > :16:18.is local provision. The Hodgsons' case is extreme but it is not
:16:18. > :16:21.isolated. The organisers of this group say the lack of education
:16:21. > :16:26.provision is the biggest problem for parents of autistic children,
:16:26. > :16:31.so much so they are trying to open their own autism-specific free
:16:31. > :16:36.school. We have no provision of a high school for a child with autism
:16:36. > :16:40.within East Cheshire. These children have got to travel for an
:16:40. > :16:49.hour-and-a-half to get to a school, or they go into mainstream which
:16:49. > :16:54.for some of them mainstream is not the right environment. He has
:16:54. > :16:59.started out in the reception year, at a point where he was expected to
:16:59. > :17:04.achieve a high level. That level of attainment has slipped. Concerns
:17:04. > :17:08.are not just confined to East Cheshire. Nationally, 30% of
:17:08. > :17:12.parents of autistic children feel their child's educational placement
:17:12. > :17:18.is not adequate. A quarter of autistic children aren't happy at
:17:18. > :17:23.school. East kerb Cheshire Council says it is -- east Cheshire Council
:17:23. > :17:26.says it is listening to parents. have always acknowledged we haven't
:17:26. > :17:30.got enough special school provision in Cheshire East. Within that
:17:30. > :17:34.context, we recognise there is increased demand and need around
:17:34. > :17:37.autism in particular. We are building up the business case to
:17:37. > :17:42.bring forward proposals to our elected members in the next couple
:17:42. > :17:45.of months seeking permission from them to develop a special school
:17:45. > :17:49.specifically around autism. parents here say they will continue
:17:49. > :17:53.to try and open their own school however until they see more
:17:53. > :17:57.concrete plans in place. Bye-bye.
:17:57. > :18:02.Back in Dorset, saying goodbye is difficult but they know he is in
:18:02. > :18:08.the right place. For the first time he's properly accessing education
:18:08. > :18:12.because he is in the right environment for him.
:18:12. > :18:15.Tomorrow, Kate will be looking at the issue of employment for adults
:18:15. > :18:19.with autism. We should say thanks to everybody who has e-mailed in
:18:19. > :18:24.with thundershower comments on the issue of autism. It has touched a
:18:24. > :18:29.nerve. Have you ever heard of the age-old
:18:29. > :18:36.tradition of flatty-treading? Well, the footballers at Morecambe FC had
:18:36. > :18:41.We can probably bet they are not going to forget it! It involves a
:18:41. > :18:49.dip in the chilly waters off Arnside. Finding flat fish with
:18:49. > :18:56.your bare feet - yes. They may be nicknamed the Shrimps
:18:56. > :19:00.but they looked out of place in the estuary. The idea was a post-
:19:00. > :19:06.training team bonding session, flatty-treading, where you feel for
:19:06. > :19:11.flat fish with your bare feet and then grab them - simple! Have any
:19:12. > :19:17.of these footballers got a future as a flatty treader? A couple of
:19:17. > :19:23.them have. They are screaming like girls! The bravest of the brave can
:19:23. > :19:27.do it straightaway. But conditions for flatty-treading were tough. The
:19:27. > :19:32.estuary was full of floodwater. No catch, no dinner. A few of the lads
:19:32. > :19:40.are not getting out till they have caught one. We are going back to
:19:40. > :19:50.the pub over the road. Do you think you will catch anything? I hope so.
:19:50. > :19:53.
:19:53. > :20:00.I want chippy! Or Nandos! They gave it 110% and eventually it paid off.
:20:00. > :20:06.CHEERING How difficult was it? is hard finding them. You know when
:20:06. > :20:14.you have stood on them. I ain't picking it up! Did you get a prize
:20:14. > :20:24.for the first one? You get to eat first! That is about it. We have
:20:24. > :20:26.
:20:26. > :20:30.another one. If I can keep on it. Yes! You got something to eat now?
:20:30. > :20:37.Yeah. After much floundering about, they netted a couple and it was
:20:37. > :20:44.over the road to the local pub to enjoy the fruits of their labours.
:20:44. > :20:52.CHEERING Do you think two was enough for an
:20:52. > :20:57.entire team? Catching fish like that is SOLE
:20:57. > :21:03.destroying! Oh dear.
:21:03. > :21:07.Right, demolition work started at Lancashire's cricket ground today.
:21:07. > :21:15.It is something that fans were looking forward to. It is hoped
:21:15. > :21:19.redevelopment will mean the return of Test Cricket to the region.
:21:20. > :21:24.Out with the old, in with the new. It is hoped the facilities that
:21:24. > :21:29.will start taking shape here will be a fitting venue for England Test
:21:29. > :21:34.Matches. Our goal has always been the Ashes Test match in 2013. We
:21:34. > :21:41.were disappointed to lose that in 2009. We have got to wait until the
:21:41. > :21:45.ECB board meeting on 22nd September. The redevelopment of the ground is
:21:45. > :21:50.partly funded by a new Tesco superstore being built there. That
:21:50. > :21:58.plan hung in the balance when challenged by the billionaire
:21:58. > :22:07.Albert Gubay. At the moment, they are starting construction work for
:22:07. > :22:09.the new media centre. We start refurbishment work on the Pavilion.
:22:09. > :22:19.New stands down either side. It will be a different ground. It is
:22:19. > :22:22.
:22:22. > :22:25.hoped the new ground will be ready for the start of the 2013 season.
:22:26. > :22:29.Preparations are taking place on the Isle of Man for the
:22:29. > :22:39.Commonwealth youth games. The event is being hosted by the island for
:22:39. > :22:41.
:22:41. > :22:46.the first time. 60 athletes from Canada landed yesterday. It is so
:22:46. > :22:53.beautiful. It is like an island in the middle of the Irish Sea. It is
:22:54. > :22:59.really nice. It is a new experience for all of us.
:22:59. > :23:02.Shall we go back to Dianne and get the full weather forecast? It
:23:02. > :23:06.wasn't looking great. Doesn't look wasn't looking great. Doesn't look
:23:06. > :23:10.any better now. Good evening. We started this week by saying it
:23:10. > :23:13.would feel like autumn. Today felt like November! It was such an
:23:13. > :23:18.unsettled day. As the showers kept on coming through the morning, it's
:23:18. > :23:28.added to the problems. We have one flood warning in place with rivers
:23:28. > :23:31.
:23:31. > :23:36.in Cumbria and Lancashire. The Environment Agency number is 0845
:23:36. > :23:40.988 1188. Once we got past lunch time, many places saw these showers
:23:40. > :23:43.dying away. Over the last couple of hours, one or two more have started
:23:43. > :23:49.to appear here and there. If we pick up with what we have got over
:23:49. > :23:54.the next couple of hours, it is not looking good. Our skyline is
:23:54. > :24:00.looking so grey. The camera is wobbling as well which lets you
:24:00. > :24:06.know the wind will continue to be strong through this evening.
:24:06. > :24:12.It will be most active in parts of Cumbria and parts of Lancashire.
:24:12. > :24:20.Parts of Merseyside may miss the worst of it. Cheshire is probably
:24:20. > :24:23.the best place to be. Wherever you are, the picture will start to look
:24:23. > :24:27.better. Look what happens as we head towards the early hours of the
:24:27. > :24:32.morning - the next line of showers will start to work its way in.
:24:32. > :24:37.Temperatures up in double figures. You will get up first thing and
:24:37. > :24:43.that line of showers will be around. Once again, they will be heaviest
:24:43. > :24:48.in the northern parts. Once again, Merseyside might miss them. If you
:24:48. > :24:53.watch the timeline, we have another line of rain starting to work its
:24:53. > :25:00.of us. Some of the showers will be fairly heavy. It is a wet spell
:25:00. > :25:10.through tomorrow afternoon. Hardly anything in the way of brightness.
:25:10. > :25:10.
:25:10. > :25:15.Temperature also be 14 at best. Thank you very much. Now, picture
:25:16. > :25:20.the scene - a pleasant day out, a relaxing male or a drink by the sea
:25:20. > :25:24.at Peel. But the seagulls have other ideas. They have been dive-
:25:24. > :25:29.bombing holiday-makers in a wave of gull aggression. Some cafe owners
:25:29. > :25:36.gull aggression. Some cafe owners are calling for a drastic solution.
:25:36. > :25:39.Something is keeping people away from the beach. Seagulls have
:25:39. > :25:44.become a huge nuisance here with many people being attacked and now
:25:45. > :25:49.they want rid of them. They take strawberry scones off the tables.
:25:49. > :25:54.It is a nuisance. I have had my lunch - I get ten minutes and a
:25:54. > :25:58.seagull comes down. It is scary. Joanne owns a tearoom in the heart
:25:58. > :26:02.of the town and because of problems she's had, she's been granted a
:26:02. > :26:06.licence to cull. They are not feared or nothing. The brolly
:26:06. > :26:13.doesn't deter them. Flags and stuff don't deter them. As soon as you
:26:13. > :26:20.put food on the table, they come from out of nowhere - gone! The
:26:20. > :26:24.food has gone. They are a nightmare. They are frightening. It is not
:26:24. > :26:30.nice. More often than not, in this town, there are more seagulls than
:26:30. > :26:37.people on the beach. I'm sat here with gorgeous views, a cuppa - it
:26:37. > :26:40.should be relaxing. These seagulls don't make it easy. I have had
:26:40. > :26:44.people complaining that when ever anybody goes down the street, past
:26:44. > :26:49.a particular nest, they get attacked. You get elderly people
:26:49. > :26:53.getting flocked flat on their face. It is a real issue. Well over 100
:26:53. > :27:02.people have already complained to Peel Town Commissioners who tonight
:27:02. > :27:12.will be discussing if a gull cull is the solution.
:27:12. > :27:13.
:27:13. > :27:17.It is very odd that. They are not trustworthy.
:27:17. > :27:20.All birds have to do that! Not on your head!
:27:20. > :27:25.I don't suppose they aimed it, did they?
