With just a week to go until the start of the Tour de Yorkshire, preparations are underway in many communities. 

The race starts next Friday in Bridlington. 

Decorations are already up and are looking fantastic in Pocklington, I went to see how the residents are feeling about the race coming through the town. 

Further spells of light and patchy rain are forecast tonight as a weak weather front moves in from the north, but this will be clearing later and turning mostly dry. 

Take a look at my forecast below for the full picture:

Earlier today Icelandic Seachill, which employs 750 at its sites in Grimsby, announced it was up for sale.

Union Unite reacted to the news with concerns about their members' future at the company. 

We asked Seachill what this sale means for the future of the firm - and jobs:

Quote Message: This sale process comes as no surprise and until concluded, will have no direct impact on our employees. This is a very positive next step for Seachill, its employees and partner customers who place a high value on the business management and strategy, and it is likely that operations will continue in a similar way as present." from Simon Smith Chief Executive, Icelandic Seachill

Hull City has responded to an article in Tenfoot City magazine which has been described as racist by critics. 

The free magazine has been accused of making derogatory references to the Egyptian heritage of the Allam family, who own Hull City. 

The club has released a statement:

Quote Message: “Today we were made aware of an article which contained numerous derogatory and potentially racist references to the owners of the Club. The nature of these comments is totally unacceptable to us and we have raised the matter with Humberside Police to investigate further. We are duty bound to report any incidents of racism and are proud participants in a number of initiatives such as the Kick It Out campaign and are currently undertaking the Premier League Equality Standard. This sort of language is not acceptable in football or the wider community.” from Hull City Football Club

Unite has called for an urgent meeting with the management of Icelandic Seachill in Grimsby.

It was announced earlier today that one of the town’s largest employers has been put up for sale.

Unite say they have around 180 members at Seachill, mainly working in production roles and do not understand the rationale behind the sale of the company.

Quote Message: We understand that the company has had a significant improvement in sales recently, so why has the business been put up for sale? This is a worrying and uncertain time for the dedicated and hardworking workforce. We will be giving our members the union’s maximum support in the days and weeks ahead.” from Mike Wilkinson Unite regional officer

A magazine which seeks to celebrate the street culture of Hull has been accused of racism. 

The Tenfoot City magazine is stocked at hundreds of venues and reaches around 30,000 readers. 

But an article in it about Hull City football club uses language which one reader says is not just derogatory about the owners and players but racist too.

Roger Coates is a City of Culture volunteer and spotted the article.

The magazine claims the remarks are not racist, just distastefully funny. 

They say that people should stop being so sensitive and they did it on purpose to see what sort of reaction they would get from the public. 

One of Grimsby's biggest employers, Seachill, has been put up for sale. 

Seachill is a leading supplier of chilled fish to the UK retail market, employing 750 people at its sites in the town.

It was founded in 1998 and since then the business has grown to be one of the largest chilled fish processors in the UK. It also owns the award winning Saucy Fish Company, a four times cool brand award winner. 

Seachill also supplies to Tesco and other stores all over the world.
