In response, Minister Nick Hurd said that £30m funding has been available to local areas for this.

Half of the money had been allocated but he welcomed applications for the other half.

Grantham and Stamford's MP says it's reasonable for the UK to pay for some EU commitments after Brexit, but warns there'll be anger if the EU is unfair.

The Prime Minister is chairing a meeting of the Cabinet today to try and settle the so called "divorce bill" as the UK leaves the European Union.

It's proved a sticking point in negotiations, preventing talks from moving onto arranging a trade deal with the Union.

Nick Boles, MP for Grantham and Stamford, says we made commitments whilst we were a member of the EU.

If the methodology the bloc uses to work out how much the UK owes is reasonable, then he says "everybody can live with it".

But if it's "egregious" then he says we'll be "very angry about it".

A health watchdog says it's "concerning" that people in Lincolnshire aren't getting an equal level of service, after the closure of a specialist care unit.

A police investigation decided there were no grounds to bring criminal charges against anyone.

But the trust which runs the service is now formally beginning the process to close the unit permanently.

Many who would have been patients at Long Leys Court are now treated in the community, but some are being forced to travel to similar units outside the county.

Healthwatch Lincolnshire says it means people in Lincolnshire aren't getting a good deal compared with other areas of the country.

But the NHS trust says the new model of service is better for patients:

But after safety concerns the tank wasn't allowed to drive on the city's high street, and ended up on a street in France.

The force says that Lincoln's Safety Advisory Group were "thrilled" at the idea, and "open minded" but needed safety precautions in place to make sure it was feasible.

But instead of complying with the conditions, the production company decided to move the stunt to France.

Batman Actor Colin McFarlane has also joined the conversation online, external, saying that the county council should "put health, well being and safety ahead of penny pinching", adding that he hopes "sanity prevails".

The Mark 1 Foster Tank was designed and built in Lincoln.

Tanks first proved their potential in the Battle of Cambrai on 20 November 1917 when the largest tank force so far assembled in the war - nearly 480 machines in all - smashed a seven-mile wide, four-mile deep hole in the Germans' toughest defences.

Tank historian Richard Pullen says the weapon was such a revolutionary idea that originally no-one quite knew what to do with it on the battlefield.

A teenage boy has appeared in court in Lincoln after being charged with possession of an air weapon and bladed article with intent to cause fear of violence.

A 13-year-old boy was arrested on Monday 13 November after being called to a secondary school. No-one was injured during the incident and the school was not closed.

The boy spoke at Lincoln Youth Court only to confirm his name, date of birth, address and nationality.

No pleas were entered and there was no bail application.

He's been remanded into custody until 18 December when he will reappear at Lincoln Youth Court.

Neither the boy nor his school can be named for legal reasons.
