    Doctors at four East Riding GP practices say the consultation over the future of local minor injuries units should be halted. 

    The GPs at the Hedon, South Holderness, Eastgate and Church View practices, say the closure of the MIUs would go against the policy of providing care as locally as possible.

    The doctors are also concerned about putting extra pressure on the Hull Royal Infirmary and the impact on ambulance response times.

    East Riding Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) wants to shut the service, along with units in Withernsea and Driffield.

    The CCG wants to concentrate care at new 'Urgent Care Centres' in places like Beverley and Bridlington instead. 

    They say these would have better facilities and be open for longer.

  12. Ex-soldiers jailed on firearms charges in India back in courtpublished at 10:03 Greenwich Mean Time 29 November 2016

    Political Reporter East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire

    The appeal continues against the jailing of two East Yorkshire men in India.

    Paul Towers, from Pocklington (pictured below), and Ray Tindall, originally from Hull but who now lives in Chester, are among six British men who were sentenced to five years in prison for firearms charges in January.

    Picture of Paul Towers from Pocklington

    The men were held in 2013 while they were working on an American-owned ship that offered armed protection to vessels sailing through an area known as "pirate’s alley" between the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea.

    An Indian court ruled it wasn't properly authorised but the men have consistently denied any wrongdoing. 

    A judge in India today will hear more arguments against their convictions and the families hope new evidence will clear their names.

    There are concerns in our area about the regulation of shops that offer 'rent-to-own' goods.

    David Martin, from Scunthorpe's Credit Union, said people need to be careful with the deals.
