The Prime Minister Theresa May has told MPs the Red Arrows won't get new aircraft until 2030 in a letter which has emerged today.

Lincolnshire and Yorkshire MPs wrote to Mrs May last month after it was announced BAE Systems, which makes the Red Arrows' Hawk jet was in difficulty.

It had been suggested that the Government commission new Hawk jets to fill a gap in orders caused by delays in deals on it's other major aircraft the Typhoon.

But Mrs May has made it clear in the letter (above) the Government does "not need to take a decision on the replacement of the Hawk T1 aircraft for many years to come".

This just in from Lincolnshire Police - looks like it could be a messy rush hour in Boston:

A Lincolnshire Police statement says: "On October 29, three civilian foreign nationals were detained at RAF Waddington and handed to Lincolnshire Police.

"These individuals are believed to have arrived on a coach returning RAF personnel from force development activity in France.

"Lincolnshire Police detained the individuals and handed them to Home Office Immigration officials."

It's not clear whether those detained are men or women, or where they are now.

Police say they are worried for the safety of a woman who's gone missing from her home in Skegness.

Here's a video from the Drinsey Nook traveller site - which is at the centre of new police raid this lunchtime.

The site at Saxilby, near Lincoln, was home to members of the Rooney family who were jailed in September as part of modern day slavery operation known as Operation Pottery.

Lincolnshire Police say that although offenders are in custody, the investigation continues, and a 26-year-old man has now been arrested on suspicion of a number of charges.

We've now heard from Lincolnshire Police about the raid on the Drinsey Nook traveller site at Saxilby, near Lincoln, this lunchtime.

Officers say they have arrested a 26-year-old man on suspicion of a number of offences.

The site (pictured below) was at the centre of a modern slavery investigation called Operation Pottery which ran from 2014 to September this year, when nine members of the Rooney family were jailed for keeping people as slaves.

There's a major police presence this lunchtime at a traveller site which was at the centre of a human slavery court case earlier this year.

Police are at the Drinsey Nook traveller site, Saxilby, near Lincoln, as the pictures taken by my colleague Alex Rhodes, show.

Nine members of a family linked with the site were jailed at Nottingham Crown Court in September for modern day slavery offences.

Lincolnshire Police has not yet given any details about this operation.

The Humber Bridge Board is hosting a reunion of more than 20 engineers who helped construct the bridge.

Phil Kirk (pictured above) was a trainee engineer when the Humber Bridge was being built. He says there was a lack of safety measures at the time.

The event's been organised by two former workers to mark the structure's Grade I listing, awarded this year.

They've travelled from as far away as Australia to celebrate together and will take a trip up the Hessle tower before a civic lunch and tour of the city of culture.

It's looking like a decent day today with some sunshine to come. Here's my full forecast:

A company which wants to build a meat by-products factory in a village near Lincoln is holding a public consultation on the plan today.

Nearly 3,000 people have signed a petition against the £28m scheme in Norton Disney.

It's claimed the plant will cause smells and congestion if it's built.

Norton Disney residents also say a plant owned by the same firm in the nearby village of Skellingthorpe had caused that community to be dubbed "Smelly Skelly".

Lincoln Proteins Limited, which is behind the scheme, says new machinery will mean there'll be no odours.

The number of lettings boards in Lincoln is becoming a problem according to council officials who have launched a consultation on getting rid of them.

The City of Lincoln council says a quarter of properties in some city neighbourhoods display a 'to let' board - and it's becoming an eyesore.

The council says some boards stay up all year round - and in today's internet age many people search online rather than walking the streets to look for property.

High street giant Marks and Spencer is opening its latest Lincolnshire store today.

The firm pulled out of Skegness High Street several years ago. Its new venture is on a retail park built on the former Skegness Town football ground.

The firm says the new food hall - which opens at 10.00 - will create up to 50 jobs for local people. It comes around a fortnight after Aldi opened a new store at the same location.

It comes after the trust which runs hospitals in Grimsby, Scunthorpe and Goole announced that some cancer treatments will be moved to East Yorkshire, because of staff shortages.

The Cleethorpes MP Martin Vickers is hoping it isn't a permanent move:
