Police have made a fresh appeal for information after the discovery

:00:13.:00:17.

of an unidentified body four years ago near a cemetery in Wigan.

:00:18.:00:22.

The man was found with no form of identification.

:00:23.:00:24.

His only possession was a bus ticket found in his pocket,

:00:25.:00:27.

which was for travel from Leigh to Wigan.

:00:28.:00:30.

Councillor Nathan Murray says he hopes the man's

:00:31.:00:32.

I think that, four years, the fact that no one's come forward

:00:33.:00:38.

to report him missing is a sad shame.

:00:39.:00:41.

He must have relatives, he must have family members

:00:42.:00:44.

The Prime Minister, Theresa May, has agreed in principle to meet

:00:45.:00:51.

the boss of Peugeot to discuss French firm PSA Group's proposals

:00:52.:00:55.

to buy General Motors' European operation, which includes Vauxhall.

:00:56.:00:59.

There are fears over the jobs of 2,000 workers employed

:01:00.:01:02.

The Victims' Commissioner, Baroness Newlove, who's

:01:03.:01:08.

from Warrington, has welcomed a new law being set up to help

:01:09.:01:11.

The Government says it's concerned some areas of England and Wales

:01:12.:01:17.

are putting in more effort to deal with the issue than others.

:01:18.:01:20.

It's thought the new approach will deliver increased convictions.

:01:21.:01:23.

I think this is welcoming news in the sense that we've also got

:01:24.:01:26.

to educate young children and families because they see

:01:27.:01:29.

this as normal behaviour and they will either injure somebody

:01:30.:01:33.

else or kill somebody else and it's a spiral.

:01:34.:01:36.

This is not acceptable for anybody and, if we can make safer,

:01:37.:01:39.

healthier families and try to keep them together when necessary,

:01:40.:01:43.

Police have released CCTV images of a man who may have information

:01:44.:01:49.

about racist posters that were put up at a Pakistani community centre

:01:50.:01:54.

The offensive material was also posted through the doors of nearby

:01:55.:01:59.

Police are treating the matter as a hate crime.

:02:00.:02:05.

Now, the result may not be cause for celebration but,

:02:06.:02:07.

for some of Burnley Football Club's oldest fans, the game

:02:08.:02:10.

against Lincoln City started with a special reward

:02:11.:02:12.

11 of the longest-serving Clarets fans led their side out as mascots

:02:13.:02:18.

It was all looking up as Burnley fans arrived in the sunshine

:02:19.:02:27.

and some of the club's oldest fans were preparing to lead

:02:28.:02:30.

It's a great thing for the football club. The football club means

:02:31.:02:45.

everything to this town. Burnley FC is the first British club

:02:46.:02:48.

to use older fans as mascots instead When the FA Cup draw was made a

:02:49.:03:04.

couple of weeks ago, I came along on Monday morning and thought to get

:03:05.:03:08.

some older fans in and repay them for a lifetime of support.

:03:09.:03:10.

Some of them came armed with their own lucky -

:03:11.:03:12.

or should that now be unlucky ? charms.

:03:13.:03:17.

It is hand made. I do not wear it in matches unless I go there every home

:03:18.:03:29.

match I have worn it. This is the ultimate reward for these fans who

:03:30.:03:33.

today are getting the chance to walk out on the pitch with the players

:03:34.:03:39.

here at Burnley FC, the fifth round FA Cup tie against Lincoln. They are

:03:40.:03:44.

celebrating what they have done for this side for hundreds of years of

:03:45.:03:46.

support. Sadly, the result didn't match

:03:47.:03:47.

the mood of Burnley's mascots today. Let's hope that doesn't stop

:03:48.:03:50.

other clubs celebrating their longest-serving supporters
