    Three teenagers have gone missing from Grimsby.

    Humberside Police say they are concerned for the safety of 16-year-old Teigan Welbourne, her 13-year-old brother Taylor and 15-year-old Daisy Kelly.

    We are asking for your help in finding them. They are not in any trouble but we need to make sure that they are safe and well. We are very concerned for the safety of Teigan, Taylor and Daisy as their ages make them particularly vulnerable.

  3. Reality check: Now the debate has finished sort the facts from the spin

    That's it from the BBC Radio Humberside general election debate.

    The BBC has a Reality Check service which aims to sort the facts from the spin.

    Whether it's education funding, housebuilding or police numbers, our service aims to cut through the bluster and deliver you the facts you need to make your decision.

    You can find out more here.

  4. General election debate: Education funding

    The fourth question comes from Bethany Kay Thompson.

    She asked: "How will you ensure that schools receive the per pupil funding they desperately need?"

    What we have proposed to do is to introduce a fairer funding model. That would bring in £5.2m of extra funding. There will be a £4bn increase in schools funding over the next Parliament.

    Andrew Percy, Conservative

    We do need to fund schools more and build more schools to reduce class sizes. It is funding directly to the schools.

    Mike Hookem, UKIP

    We must have the money. We are one of the richest countries in the world. We have to invest in education and teachers. There is a real problem with stress levels, we must look after our teachers.

    Roy Horobin, Liberal Democrat

    In regards to what Andrew said about increasing funding. It is not actually an increase because it is not in real terms. It is actually a cut to the funding.

  5. General election debate: Economic challenges

    A third question to our panellists comes from Angus West.

    He asked: "What is the biggest economic challenge for our country in the next five years, with the exception of Brexit?"

    Stabilising the economy and ensuring we have a good NHS, a good education system, getting more people into jobs. We would do this by investing more in businesses and investing more in nationalising some of the main services.

    Hollie Devanney

    There's a skills gap. There's a massive skills gap. We have enough jobs in the Yorkshire and Humber region. Our kids aren't realising what is there for them. The skills gap is the major issue.

    Roy Horobin, Liberal Democrat

    Trying to make sure technical education is on a par with academic qualifications. We have got record employment in the Humber. I think we should be more positive about our local economy rather than talking it down.

    Andrew Percy, Conservative

    We have got to make sure our kids are ready and have a good education. We need to bring back apprenticeships and technical skills.

  6. Reality Check: May and Corbyn's record on anti-terror legislation

    "I am shocked that Jeremy Corbyn, just in 2011, boasted that he had opposed every piece of anti-terror legislation in his 30 years in office."

    - Amber Rudd, Home Secretary, BBC Election Debate

    "Can I just remind you that in 2005 Theresa May voted against the anti-terror legislation at that time. She voted against it, as did David Davis, as did a number of people that are now in your cabinet because they felt that the legislation was giving too much executive power."

    - Jeremy Corbyn, Labour leader, BBC Election Debate.

    Theresa May and Jeremy CorbynReuters/PA

    Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has been accused by the Conservatives of consistently blocking anti-terror legislation. During Wednesday night's BBC Election Debate, Jeremy Corbyn suggested that Theresa May's record was inconsistent and that the prime minister had voted against some anti-terror measures in the past.

    Reality Check has looked back at the key votes since 2000.

    Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn have taken very different paths to becoming leaders of their parties. Mrs May has almost exclusively served as a minister or shadow minister during her 20 years as an MP. In 2010 she became home secretary - after the Conservatives formed the coalition government with the Lib Dems. She remained in that post until becoming prime minister in 2016.

    Mr Corbyn first became an MP in 1983 and had previously never held a position on the front bench before becoming leader in September 2015.

  7. General election debate: Security

    The second question to our panellists comes from Ashley Prescott.

    She asked: "In the light of the Manchester tragedy, should we fall in line with Donald Trump and seek to ban travel to and from countries perceived to be a risk?"

    What were the responses from our politicians?

    We have to get a grip of our borders. Our borders are porous. I would not go as far as saying that we stop people from travelling, but what I would say is that those who travel to fight a jihadi war - we make sure they don't come back into this country.

    Mike Hookem, UKIP

    I don't think a travel ban would work. We have to remember that the appalling atrocity in Manchester was committed by a British national. This is a problem of home-grown terrorism.

    Andrew Percy

    I don't agree with a travel ban. What we need to do is provide the country with more police officers, more security, more border force and more intelligence officers. Go for the root cause and reassess programmes such as Prevent.

    Hollie Devanney, Labour

    We need to support our police and our intelligence services. They need the appropriate powers, I think they have got them. It is another issue we need to depoliticise.

  8. Reality Check: Adult social care

    The claim: Spending on adult social care is facing its biggest crisis despite government's claim that there will be an extra £3.5bn in the system for England by 2020.

    Figures for adult social care

    Reality Check verdict: Social care could get up to an estimated £3.5bn extra in England by 2020 through council tax increases and a contribution from central government. A similar amount, though, has been cut from social care budgets since 2010 and the extra money would not solve the longer term problems of caring for a population which is continuing to age and whose demands are increasing.

  9. General election debate: Reaction from the audience

    The issue of adult social care has prompted some passionate responses from our audience members:

    Forever and a day we have heard from the Conservatives that they have ploughed £10m in or £20m, but where is it going? It is going to top management.

    Audience member

    That is simply not true. The number of senior managers has nosedived since 2010.

    Reponse from Andrew Percy, Conservative

    We have to stop this political football. We need to get the best deal for the people of this country.

    Audience member

    It is good that people are living longer. But we have known this for a while. Labour kicked the can on this. With regard to the NHS - just pouring more money is not effective.

  10. General election debate: Adult social care

    The first question to our panellists comes from Andrew Storer.

    He asked: "What would you do to make our local area and the communities that you serve better for older people?"

    What were the responses from our politicians?

    We must pay for our healthcare. We must pay for those professionals. The work that people do in nursing homes is staggering, undervalued and yet so important. The money has to be there.

    Roy Horobin, Liberal Democrat

    Labour are devoting £8m to the social care fund. The money will come from raising taxes. I think the party has put forward a fully costed plan.

    Hollie Devanney, Labour

    It is disjointed, the social care service and the health service. We need to put some money into both of those and we would do that by taking money out of the foreign aid budget.

    Mike Hookem, UKIP

    There are billions of extra pounds coming in, but that alone is not enough. There is no easy solution. The less party politics involved in this, the better.
