News has some essential northeast travel. Good afternoon and welcome to today's North East with Jonathan morale M H L H L 10 and we will bring you all that has happened throughout today but as you can expect the day's news coverage has been dominated by what the date is and it is May the 22nd which means it's a year on since the bombing in Manchester here the prime minister and the Duke of Cambridge to return to the moral service in Manchester Cathedral to mark the 1st anniversary of the bomb attack which killed 22 people including many children the address was given by the Bishop of Manchester the Right Reverend David Walker this place so close to the spot where lives were lost or changed for ever will be here for all who wish to come and remember by gathering here today we hollow it for all times to come. This cathedral is here Manchester is here and you were hurt all the relieved 12 months ago today a forever part of Manchester forever part of us. Well last May's bombing happened at the end of a concert by the singer Ariana Grande today sent a message of love light and warmth to everyone affected a reporter. Who's live in the center of Manchester Emily one year old what's the mood like there. I would say it's a respect of respectful defiance ready here in Manchester that just about sums it up this often in the city is based in brilliant sunshine and although people's memories are still sad and in some cases very traumatic there's a spirit of togetherness that seems to run through this city like a sparkling river the same square where I am now was the focal point for public tributes after the bombing people came here to lay found flowers and like candles and today there is a long line of Japanese maple trees and giant square planters and people are hanging little paper labels on them with handwritten messages on the branches Now I've read a few of them one simply read Don't Look Back In Anger Manchester and another said Mum We all love you rest in peace and what else is happening to mark the anniversary that. Well people are quite literally singing in the streets today and numerous choirs from all over the place are performing tonight instant Albert Square in a big sing along concept for the public and many of them have been rehearsing around me throughout the morning one of the survivors of the bombing carries crazy 18 M. From Leeds co-founded the survivors choir and she told me how it's helped to kind of seems like the brightest of all loves of me is a Music always helps are able to get. Through practical memories. Definitely have the best it has and we have here and I was a 50. 50 just. When we had the 1st song and the artist I was in tears because with me in Rochester it's really hard for people to come back but some survivors are staying away from my. Just really want to though. For some it's simply too painful they would rather remember privately in pain there is an awful lot going on in the city today and not all those affected by what happened last year want to be at the public events where some including those who were very seriously injured the process of recovery has taken the model a different path and being here in this city one year on just doesn't feel right about said many who were simply visitors coming to a Come sit for example from the northeast have returned numerous times and all here today coming together on the China to move forward. In Manchester many thousands. 4 of those who died in the bombing were from our area or from Tyneside in fact 32 year old Philip Truong from Gateshead he gone to collect his upon his younger daughter from the Com says he was there with his 29 his 19 year old sister Courtney Boyle who was also killed as was the teenage couple Liam Korean Chloe rather food from South Shields now the time gathered today in the memory. You may recall to date 2 beautiful talented migrant young people 11 with their lives ahead of them set off to have fun. And as we all now sadly know they would not return here to their home to their family to their friends clearly only and would be taken from us in a moment of unspeakable evil in this the fall the horror of that may night devastated families and destroyed lives many people from South Tyneside were in Manchester that night and they all felt the loss of Chloe and Liam and thought of what might have been. And the days that followed our South Tyneside family close together for comfort we all felt the shock and then hurt and asked why. We all held our children and not one was a bit tight grateful to be able to do so. B.B.C. Newcastle Stephanie Finn was there for the ceremony is still in session for you now and it's obviously been a very emotional day for everyone today Steph just listening to the crack in responses voice at the end of that speech. Incredibly emotional Charlie I'm not quite sure how it managed to get to the end really it was very poignant but also very positive as well hundreds gathered here at the town hall this morning in the cold wind drizzle there was a piper playing and members of the fire service and police formed almost a crowd of honor for the families as they emerged from the town hole made their way down the steps into also a memorial bench underneath the towering stance your Queen Victoria the silence came at 10 31 am that time was chosen because the bomb went off at 1031 year ago today family friends and those who didn't even know Currently I'm all laid flowers this memorial bench just beside me now it's covered in pink flowers I would say maybe around 30 police as well and in front of that sea of pink and blue again nearly every single person sporting the colors of the trust set up man name and people have been continuously coming throughout the day here to lay flowers to hold to pay their respects just looking at some of the flowers and tributes last couple Chloe and. You which is perfect for ever in our hearts and many of the others just say simply together forever the majesty of the emblem as well so many different floral tributes and tonight the town hall will also be lit up as a mark of respect so do you think it really helps bring the community together on the anniversary of think it actually helps people. It was of course very hard for many of the people to see the sheer numbers who turned up it will express the same sense of sadness will be a great comfort to many I think it's just one example of the support of the people in this town which has come together in a way that I've never seen before people stood shoulder to shoulder they were hugging crying but the very fact that they were all showing their support for the family and the trust that brought such positivity Now we know many people in the northeast without the arena last night that might as well and some were here today . Were given concert tickets for that stays that way to years ago they traveled with Chloe's parents from a home here still to still forget and so in your head every day and never leave you never Where were you when it happened it just stops. And. Seems like a lifetime trying to find you 2 kids. In the Arena. Stopping just looking for them in. The morning just helping people. So you. Never go from your mind and. Forget still at least I just don't think it's take some and can't believe it really and you know stuff like this I've seen it happens and hear about it on the news and so be it on like think 11 happened and you. So we got the politicians now having to answer questions about what action needs to be taken as the mayor of Manchester and he been I'm spoken to by and they saw what can be done to prevent a similar attack but as you've said the people assigned shields have been doing their bit they've been helping to build a brighter future for the young people this is the year the trust staff. Yes absolutely currently and together forever that's the colors and this is all about raising money for young people in the arts the excess things very important to both . It's all about helping them to feel like attentional and back to. Driving there's so many shops businesses all getting involved raising money that will disclaim the balloons the posters flowers decorations just to show their support including of course Western travel that's what probably works as well so many people are feeling it today. That expressing it and definitely coming together thank you so much the service Stephanie Finn and he's been so she'll free today and she mentioned Westover travel which is a family fan base and so she has been there for many years and you'll hear from the boss of that of him who's actually stepped in and been the treasurer for the trust and how much money they've they've raised he looked at the bank balances last night and it's more than 100000 pounds already you know people doing various fundraising activities and it all goes to help people and and young people in the area achieve their dreams see him much more from him later on it's coming up to quite a pass full Marks and Spencer says the reorganization of its business will now involve axing more than $100.00 shops by 2022 the return to describe the additional closures is vital for its future but unions have called it a salami slicing approach which is extremely distressing for staff the retail analysts more in Hinton said something had to be done it's got too many stores that aren't making enough profit for it costs are going up but sales are going to so you need to really look at a store stay get rid of those unprofitable ones. Well M.L.S. Says it wants to have fewer but larger clothing and home where stores in better locations are business correspondent Passman says today's news wasn't a huge surprise we've just seen the High Street change say much in the last 10 to 12 yeah it and online sales taking the lead and they've just not been able to adapt don't know since doing a lot better next is doing a lot better so it really has a lot to do and its chief executives and chairmen of been pretty open about that well Mary Porter says the founders of Porter's consultancy an agency to return as she said and I said struggle to keep up with progress we've had the biggest innovation ever ever to happen to consumerism through what the Internet has done there's been big changes in the way we live from technology to urbanization healthy living and when you are a business the size of Marks and Spencers to change is like taking the Titanic and saying let's change course here so out of the 14 store was set to close the nearest Darlington Town Center in Stockton However a new store is due to open later this year at West Park in Darlington but guess what it's just a food hole that seems to be this obsession with M. And S. Food but nothing that's the thing is that the food is selling and as we heard from from one of those expert that you know the clothes are not as popular as they as they once were people have gone off the market maybe not the markets but other things. The store in Durham just say that. If you think about what you used to be able to say say 10 years ago I could have just said Right OK if you showed me your pants right now what were they going to be made if I showed you my past right now they would be from that particular store. Asking the same question. Today no but they are on the side down. So are you going to say think about that it right there OK. We'll have more of that just after quarter past 4 and time for B.B.C. News headlines. Services have been held across the country to remember 22 victims of last year's terrorist attack in at a concert in Manchester hundreds have gathered in sessions to pay tribute to the northeast victims as you just said Marks and Spencer says it hopes to make at least a 3rd of sales online after announcing more store closures and some lives near owner Stuart Donald has promised that the club is now debt free after his takeover was completed. So the weather tonight we've got a little bit of low cloud already along the East Coast and that spreading inland temperatures down to 7 degrees Celsius tomorrow the low cloud bends back to the coast and get some long sunny spells generally highs of 17 degrees Celsius. Fairly found the delays already on the a warm autumn bypassed we did have a broken down vehicle lines of problems a one south between Gosford Park and Canton Valetta No that's still there certainly the side of there would still a queue it's nearly up to burn up to the south until about now so going from a 90 down the A one way down nearly all the way to West I hope the Stamford and road and it's still looking really have a only a $69.00 we had grass cutting work reports that the you've done and dusted up by this time of day but it must be on because he's definitely queuing on the corporate bypass especially bad coming back to Newcastle from the penalties but definitely both ways a 16 on a cool bridge from the stifled roundabout we've had a couple problems around Durham as well we had an accident report of last 40 minutes or so Darlington road party blocked between there was cross bank and Lowe's bar on bank expect delays there at the top series cycle rates of various road closures from South Street and Cross Gate of the Elsie's building up in the usual places of course got the closures at New Birth now until further notice it could be a sort of monthly needs repair that burst water main which blew spectacularly yesterday a new Burn Bridge Road Station Road all still closed as always keep me updated I want I want suitable for a devil to devour now an isolated I'm sorry James so when you wake up tomorrow morning.

News are some essential northeast travel. 18 minutes after 4 this time yesterday you heard it here live on this program on B.B.C. Newcastle the announcement that someone had a new owner the British millionaire businessman Stude Donal completed the deal bringing to an end American billionaire Ellis Short time in charge Donald will pay Ellis Short $40000000.00 pounds for the club which is now debt free the question of a manager rested on resolve but should be told in the next 7 days some newspapers have suggested that former manager Chris Coleman could return but would he for some thoughts on this and other issues I had a chat with Newcastle and sun and player Lee Clarke who's. Got the loose by the cloak. Under the previous ownership. It was common in the talks. Science in cities around. His hands are tied to him to bring all who play. And that was a total that was to her Good for him so he wanted to be given the opportunity with backing to bring the club back to to where it should be a lawyer. Means an enormous challenge that starts the Premier League sure. If they ask him is in No 2 I think it's a possibility without being a 100 percent I think there is cause I think he feels he's got unfinished business and he took on a tough job to start with so it could turn it around the world on the table before him sat there in the back of the can do that was asked to Donald says he'll have a new manager within the week within 7 days I think his phrase yesterday a someone who's managed in league warm in the season just gone well qualities do you think by NEED Well obviously someone who who has the respect of a city manager a masterful seasons at Alderson this well of course to to play our semifinals and play our finals or we can eventually got promoted sure it's it's recruitments going to be a case of Gazza next item in play as a club or the moment someone put it to me 2 are saying they're going to not just going to the doors of status I think there was a lot of bad word for or called last season and that's been proven in the double relegation so you know the mindset of the play of the group needs to change is why we've reached the peak when you've proven winners into the group that whatever level and certainly there is little odds who've come people that level as well I'm sure tunnels come out and said they love to have probably paid more we're going to block in the Park this season some poor form of all the mother we need to recruit probably cause it's too you know adds that with enough certainly 23 home games to how the stadium alight going to play but the biggest games some of those are the League One clubs in League One players up to the cause of the size of the state. That's the size of the crowd so that's that's going to be a tall hurdle in the going to hold the 6. Games it's called finals as well because everyone will just want to beat some and in the house no pressure of them to the next doctor to walk away with the lead so that's the added pressure for plus some of them not play as a co
