Problems with a private ambulance service which provides non-emergency transport in Hull and across Lincolnshire are expected to be debated in Parliament today.

There have been complaints that some patients have missed appointments while others have been left stranded in hospital because they weren't picked up by the Thames Ambulance Group.

Brigg and Goole Conservative MP Andrew Percy is due to hold a debate on the issue in the Commons later.

Thames Ambulance Service says improvements have been made.

The government says it's doing all it can to secure more orders for Hawk jets to help protect jobs at BAE Systems in Brough.

In the Commons, the Labour MP for Hull North, Diana Johnson, warned that the UK might not be able to supply the next generation of Red Arrow jets unless action is taken.

In October 2017 it was announced that 400 jobs would be cut at the East Yorkshire site, which makes the Hawk training jet.

The Defence Secretary, Gavin Williamson, said: "We are working hard to secure orders for the Hawk aircraft and will continue to do so."

East Riding of Yorkshire Council has opened a book of condolence for Shane Gilmer, who died following an attack at his home in Southburn, near Driffield.

Police are appealing to anyone who saw the man in the Pearson Park area on Thursday, 28 December to contact them.
