A demonstration is planned this lunchtime over the future of wardens who look after people in council-run sheltered accommodation across East Yorkshire.

It will take place outside the council offices, with people protesting over plans by to replace the one-site wardens with on-call supervisors.

Some residents have described the current wardens as an essential lifeline.

The East Riding of Yorkshire Council says no decision has been made about the future of the wardens and a consultation will last until the middle of next month.

A wind farm built by workers at the Siemens factory in Hull will be officially opened today.

The Dudgeon Wind Farm is located 20 miles off the Norfolk coast in the North Sea.

Parts from across Europe were put together at Hull's Green Port factory before being installed on the site.

It's big enough to power more than 400,000 homes.

It follows a number of disagreements between the two camps over the past few years, which resulted in fans throwing balls onto the pitch in a protest against the Allam family at a recent game.

Supporters' groups say they want to talk about the reintroduction of concession ticket prices as well as the use of the club's name.

The future of 21 schools across Yorkshire is due to be discussed by Wakefield Council later.

In September, Wakefield City Academies Trust said it no longer wanted to run the schools, which are in West, South and East Yorkshire.

Only four of the schools were rated as good or outstanding by education watchdog Ofsted and the trust decided to walk away from them because it didn't feel it could make improvements quickly enough.

The Department for Education is now trying to find new sponsors to run them.

The motion being debated this afternoon has been put forward by Labour councillor Kevin Swift, who says academies should be able to move back to council control if something like this happens in the future.

Those behind ambitious plans for Grimsby are hoping today's budget will bring commitment from the government.

The Greater Grimsby Town Deal aims to bring more than 5,000 jobs and nearly 8,000 new homes to the area.

Plans include spending £20m on the Riverhead Square cinema and restaurant development, with a sports and leisure plan for the recently- bought Victoria Mills.

It's hoped granting Grimsby Docks free trade status would make it attractive for investors.

Figures from the private and public sector are working together to regenerate the area.

North East Lincolnshire Council approved the plans earlier this year and are waiting on a decision from central government.

David Prideaux failed to take a defibrillator to a man who suffered a cardiac arrest and died at the scene.

There will be news and sports updates throughout the night.

Here's five things we have learned:

• A care home is being investigated by police in relation to "serious" allegations of abuse
• 250 Humberside Police samples to be re-examined
• The north of England has seen the biggest cuts in government spending over the past five years, official figures show
• Hull City Council has agreed a price to buy the former BHS and Edwin Davis buildings from the current owners
• Controversial plans to expand an out of town shopping centre in Hull will go before a public inquiry today

More now on the East Yorkshire care home which is being investigated by police in relation to "serious" allegations of abuse.

Inspectors uncovered areas of concern at Stamford Bridge Beaumont care home including;

• Residents at risk of dehydration or malnutrition were not cared for appropriately
• Insufficient numbers of staff on duty to meet people's needs
• A lack of effective leadership
• One resident was overdue an injection for a lifelong condition
• At least two people had not received a bath or shower since October 2016

The report said that since the inspection the registered manager had left the service and the home had been placed into special measures.

In a joint statement, East Riding of Yorkshire Council and Humberside Police said: "We are working alongside our partner agencies in relation to allegations surrounding safeguarding issues at the care home.

"Investigations are currently ongoing into these."

A spokeswoman for Barchester Healthcare said it took the CQC's findings "very seriously" and was taking steps to address the issues identified, including additional training for staff and efforts to recruit more staff.

She said: "The safety and wellbeing of our residents is our utmost priority and we are working with the relevant authorities to assist in their investigation."

Humberside Police say they are concerned for the safety of 13 year-old Faezeh Shanini from Hull who has been missing since last week.

Faezeh was last seen by her mother on 14 November 2017. She has phoned her parents since, but they are currently unaware of her whereabouts.

It's believed Faezeh could have links to Birmingham and London. It's not known if she has access to money.

She's described as of Iranian descent, around 5 feet 3, with long dark hair which she usually wears down.

Faezeh sometimes wears glasses and she was last seen wearing a green coat, but could have changed her clothes.

An inquiry into controversial plans to expand an out of town shopping centre in Hull has begun today.

The developers have appealed against the decision by Hull City Council to turn down the plans for more shops and restaurants at Kingswood.

Some city-centre retailers say it will take shoppers away from the city centre.

Two hundred and fifty Humberside Police samples linked to investigations are being re-checked because the original test results may have been "manipulated."

Nationally, more than 10,000 cases, including violent crime, may have been affected, police chiefs said.

They probed Randox Testing Services in Manchester after two men were arrested on suspicion of perverting the course of justice in February.

Humberside Police say:

• 250 cases affected. All cases have been submitted for retesting
• 13 of these have been re-tested so far
• 7 of these were live cases and so were re-tested before the case went to trial

BBC home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw said it was "the biggest forensic science scandal in the UK for decades".

Re-tests will have been carried out on 1,500 cases by the end of the year.

Lawyers for two people convicted over road deaths are now seeking to take their cases to the Court of Appeal.

Concerns have also been raised about thousands of drug test results relied on by the civil courts to determine child custody issues and employment cases.

A total of 42 police forces across the country sent data to the laboratory for testing.

Of the 10,000 cases that could have been affected, 75% were traffic offences, such as drug driving, the National Police Chiefs' Council said.

Other cases included violent crime, sexual offences and unexplained deaths.

So far, re-tests on samples involved in sexual offence cases, violence or homicide have shown no change.

A care home is being investigated by police in relation to "serious" allegations of abuse.

The claims predominantly involve the movement of residents at Stamford Bridge Beaumont care home in East Yorkshire.

Details of the investigation emerged from a Care Quality Commission report, external which identified "multiple failings", including finding two residents may not have been bathed for more than a year.

The home said it was assisting the authorities in their investigation.

Stamford Bridge Beaumont, which is run by Barchester Healthcare, provides care for up to 107 older people, some of whom have dementia.

CQC inspectors visited the home in Buttercrambe Road in August and September after it received claims from a whistle-blower of "several allegations of abuse that they and five of their colleagues had witnessed".

The report said an internal investigation into the claims had concluded "most of the allegations had related to moving people" and resulted in staff being retrained.

However, it said: "In fact these were serious allegations which are now being investigated by the police".

The north of England has seen the biggest cuts in government spending over the past five years, official figures show.

Spending in the north has fallen by £696m in real terms since 2012, while the south of England has seen an increase of £7bn.

Labour have called on the government to end its austerity programme in the budget on Wednesday.

A Treasury spokesperson said every region in England is funded fairly.

Government figures, external show that, when inflation is taken into account, every region in the north of England has seen a fall in spending on services since 2012, while every other English region has seen an increase.
