5:16 pm
guests to talk to about that, and so we want to discuss all of that as well. it is a new report. it says racism has become, it says there are wide variety of factors and racism, in explaining social disparities in the uk. a lot of conclusions to this review commissioned by the government, but the findings have been causing controversy. the commission on race and ethnic disparities was set up after the black lives matter protests, but it has found that social class and family structure played a bigger role in determining people's lives. the commission says concerns that the uk is institutionally racist are not borne out by the evidence but that overt racism remains. the prime minister, borisjohnson has said, "it is now right that the government considers their recommendations in detail, and assesses the implications for
5:17 pm
future government policy." but campaigners say they feel "massively let down" by the report — and they've warned the government does not have the confidence of black and minority ethnic communities. three people to talk to about this report in the next few minutes, but first, let'sjust report in the next few minutes, but first, let's just have this summary of everything that we've said so far today. this report from greg mckenzie. last summer's black lives matter protests were some of the biggest seen in the uk. black lives matter! hundreds of thousands of people lined the streets up and down the country calling for change. it was triggered by the killing of george floyd in america. the government reacted and commissioned a report looking into racial disparities, which it has published today. no—one in the report is saying racism doesn't exist. we found anecdotal evidence of this. however, what we did find was the evidence of actual
5:18 pm
institutional racism, no. that wasn't there, we didn't find that in our report. the report concludes race and racism have become less important factors in explaining social disparities. but its author admits while racism does exist in this country, the uk is not institutionally racist, which has angered some race campaigners. the two people appointed to lead an independent commission were on record denying structural racism and institutional racism 15 years ago. so it's no surprise that we have tony sewell saying he didn't find any evidence of institutional racism. well, he denied its existence 15 years ago. he is hardly going to change his mind. the commission has made 24 recommendations, which include the acronym bame, that is black, asian and minority ethnic, should no longer be used. other recommendations include creating a police workforce that represents the communities they serve. and increasing the legitimacy and accountability of stop and search
5:19 pm
through body—worn video cameras. the prime minister asked them to do this report because although he thinks that there is a good deal of progress that has been made in recent years, there is a lot more to do. and so we will be listening and reading very carefully the recommendations from the commissioners about what more the country needs to do to tackle inequalities. the commission believes that if these recommendations are implemented, it will give a further burst of momentum to the story of the uk's progress to a successful, multiethnic and multicultural community. but some race campaigners believe we are some way off actually achieving this. greg mckenzie, bbc news. let's get reaction to the report's findings. first of all from labour. with me now is marsha de cordova, the labour shadow women

5:21 pm
also a huge insult to the many black, asian and ethnic minority trinities who experience racism, because racism is a real and it really is the lived experience of many people. 50 really is the lived experience of many people-— really is the lived experience of many people. really is the lived experience of man --eole. , ., many people. so when the people who -roduce many people. so when the people who produce this — many people. so when the people who produce this report _ many people. so when the people who produce this report say, _ many people. so when the people who produce this report say, yes, - many people. so when the people who produce this report say, yes, racism i produce this report say, yes, racism is usually complex, hugely complex, we do not deny that racism is a real force in the uk, but there are many, many factors at play here — family influence, socioeconomic background, culture religion. have all those people who have reached those conclusion, are they simple he wrong? conclusion, are they simple he wron: ? , ., , ., wrong? there is no denying that other factors, _ wrong? there is no denying that other factors, such _ wrong? there is no denying that other factors, such as _ wrong? there is no denying that other factors, such as class - wrong? there is no denying that other factors, such as class and | other factors, such as class and your socioeconomic status, may also play a key shooting factor to this, but i do not dier —— can shooting factor. you cannot deny the main fact that

institutional racism exist today. the majestic sling. if you are a black woman, your four the majestic sling. if you are a black woman, yourfour times more likely to die in childbirth. why is that inequality still in existence? if you are a child of black, african, caribbean descent, you are five—time or likely to be excluded from school. 22 years on from the mcpherson report, were institutional racism was first coined, he really talked about where unequal outcomes are happening based on race or ethnicity and culture, that could be institutionally racist, and we are seeing those disparities or inequalities happening across society. again, it was a missed opportunity for this report to truly and meaningfully engage with some of the inequalities that are driven by structural racism. and ap them which is shone light and expose some of these inequalities, it is a let down to many in the black, asian and
5:23 pm
ethnic minority community —— a pandemic which has. it is a real low blow for those who continue to fight for racialjustice in society. remember, the workings of this commission happening last summer was as a result of black lives matter, as a result of black lives matter, as a result of black lives matter, as a result of many calling for in and to racial injustice and discrimination, and now we have a report, 24 recommendations to set out what they believe will create a more equal society. actually, over the past three years, we have had several reports that have dealt with racism and inequality, and i actually think the government should really have gone on and implemented those recommendations. we have not got any report that is seeking to try and erase the last 20 odd years of so much good work and progress that has been made by now claiming that has been made by now claiming that institutional racism is not a country beating

5:25 pm
casually chuck around the phrase and you can find evidence. an institution is behaving in a racially prejudiced way. let's find evidence and do something about it. that is something the hrc is here to do. i think, that is something the hrc is here to do. ithink, also, we should remember nine out of ten of the commissioners were from ethnic minority backgrounds themselves. i think they may be feeling a little bit insulted. accomplish professional black caribbean and black african background people, like the economist. these are really substantial, independent minded people. they are not quoted kind of give their agreement to a sort of a propaganda document, which is what marshall was implying was the case, and actually we can all cherry pick artefacts she picked up on one thing, she was claiming that a higher level of inclusion from school of black caribbean boys
5:26 pm
overwhelmingly. an example of incisional racism for some but actually, it happens to be the case that the number of black african boys who are excluded from school is lower than the number of white boys. you have a huge range, a huge diversity in exclusions, and i think it is very difficult to argue that is an example of racism. i think it is an example of racism. i think it is an example of racism. i think it is a tremendously good report in many ways. it is very fact—based, it is taking issue with a lot of the rhetoric of the blm protesters last year, but is doing it on a very factual basis, and is a very honest report. it is talking about complexity of race and class, saying a lot of, as you've already said, a lot of the issues to do with racial disadvantage deal hugely with social class disadvantage, and it is also pointing to the incredibly important role of the family for some some of the most essential groups are overwhelmingly raised in two—parent families, and some of the least
5:27 pm
successful groups, black caribbean and a lot of white working—class kids, two thirds, are coming from sigel parent households and all the extra stresses and strains they have to experience —— single parent. i think this is, this report has, i think, changed the debate. it has placed it on a much more objective basis, so let's have less of this sort of generalising rhetoric about systemic this and institutional that. where there are problems, let's sort this out, and that is what this report has tried to do. it is got a whole host of recommendations, they are all quite close up things to do with improving relations between certain communities and the police, making the police force... but communities and the police, making the police force. . .— the police force... but we are talkin: the police force... but we are talking about _ the police force... but we are talking about some _ the police force. .. but we are talking about some of- the police force... but we are talking about some of the - the police force... but we are - talking about some of the specific examples. is it a generalisation, though, to say that a black woman is four times more likely to die in

5:29 pm
numbers are, thankfully, very small, but you look at health overall, an extremely interesting and important chapter in this report on health, from which i learned in the numerous amount, and it shows that, actually, these great disparities in wealth between the white population and ethnic minority population simply do not exist. certain groups suffer from certain illnesses in higher proportion than others, but overall, if any think of ethnic minority people have better health and greater longevity, despite on average being slightly poorer. if you look at income, by the way, if you look at income, by the way, if you gather up all the income of all ethnic minority groups and the income of the white british amount, the difference is —2%, and there are substantial numbers of ethnic rendered groups that earn a great deal more than the white british average. if you look atjust in sheer numbers terms of people
5:30 pm
suffering disadvantage, we have something called the index of multiple deprivation. if you look at the bottom 10% of neighbourhoods, in this, on this index, this is the real bottom of the bottom, in pretty —— british society, about dyer according to the index multiple deprivation. —— io%. it is a much higher proportion for british pakistanis, 30%, but if you look at the absolute numbers, it is nearly 4 million white british people living in those everest compared to threaded 40,000 british pakistanis. obviously, we want to do something about that, for both groups, and thatis about that, for both groups, and that is one of the good things about this report. it is talking about coming up with solutions that raise everybody, notjust targeting minority groups, doing things... minority groups will benefit differ

that society is becoming more progressive anyway. young people who were massively energised by black lives matter are coming up with their own solutions and getting different educations from outside the school system. academies do not need to follow the national curriculum, so teachers are finding the solutions to these problems and i feel like this report ultimately doesn't matter too much. that is really interesting. _ doesn't matter too much. that is really interesting. you _ doesn't matter too much. that is really interesting. you are - doesn't matter too much. that is| really interesting. you are seeing some positives here you are picking it out, but your point is that it is not coming from the political sphere. it is coming from elsewhere. absolutely, on instagram there is a lot of black history which teaches people stuff that they were never taught at school. you have films like black panther the ninth most popular film like black panther the ninth most popularfilm of like black panther the ninth most popular film of all like black panther the ninth most popularfilm of all time, which is incredibly progressive and what it says about museums and race in society is changing regardless of what boris johnson

district attorney from los angeles was been watching the last hour or so and tracy, thank you so much for being with us and would do you make of the way the prosecution presented that evidence and the counter defence? i that evidence and the counter defence? ~ they are doing a really solid job in using the video in a way that engages the jury. so instead ofjust having them watch, the prosecutors are leading them through the video and allowing them through the video and allowing them to testify to what happened and what they saw, stopping the video so they can explain their specific role and i think that as a great and strong impact on the jury because they can place themselves there and it's notjust having seen the video repetitively, they are actually hearing from people who are on the scene of her walking them through what happened. i think it was very
5:45 pm
impactful and what happened. i think it was very impactfuland in what happened. i think it was very impactful and in terms of how the defence is using it, i think one of the important things of the cross—examination is knowing when to quit and you will see throughout this trial when there is a strong witness for the prosecution, the defence spend some time trying to pick apart the testimony. however, when they realise that a particular witness is very strong or really sticking to what they've said, the defence knows when to quit and not ask those questions where they're not going to like the answer. you just solid mr martin and the defence attorney about if the conversations with mr floyd got more and more heated. as if to suggest that mr floyd was getting more intense or more aggravated or aggressive. similarly, the defence attorney asked one of the bystanders if they were angry after being pushed by
5:46 pm
police officers. however, the witness testified no, he was not angered. you will see the the defence is backing off and not trying to ask these types of questions on cross—examining when the witness is very steady. bind questions on cross-examining when the witness is very steady.— the witness is very steady. and you started your _ the witness is very steady. and you started your answer _ the witness is very steady. and you started your answer thereby - the witness is very steady. and you started your answer thereby saying | started your answer thereby saying that the prosecution was laying out the case layer by layer as you would expect and you told our producer in terms of the defence a story from when you were a district attorney, one of your favourite tricks was all around, this issue of doubt. tell me that story and why you think it has echoes of strategy here.— that story and why you think it has echoes of strategy here. sure. one ofthe echoes of strategy here. sure. one of the great — echoes of strategy here. sure. one of the great tools _ echoes of strategy here. sure. one of the great tools that _ echoes of strategy here. sure. one of the great tools that my - echoes of strategy here. sure. one | of the great tools that my adversary who was a public defender at the time used what he called 21 reasons to doubt and so he would find in any case, 21 minuscule facts that would
5:47 pm
come up during the testimony and use that during the closing argument to sew some doubt within the jury and it could be anything like what you're seeing. but storage for its behaviour in the store, both the behaviour in the store, both the behaviour of the cloud outside and trying to characterise them as something that made the officers not be able to do theirjobs because the cloud was getting unruly. so, they're going to keep using these threats to try to find little facts that may not change the outcome of this trial because no matter how you slice it, mr chauvin should certainly not have had his knee on george floyd's neck. ldate certainly not have had his knee on george floyd's neck.— certainly not have had his knee on george floyd's neck. we know it is been a brief _ george floyd's neck. we know it is been a brief introduction _ george floyd's neck. we know it is been a brief introduction from - george floyd's neck. we know it is| been a brief introduction from you, but we are starting to hear testimony from another witness and so, we are going to go back into the court and hearfrom christopher. did

are watching the trial of derek chauvin in minneapolis. you're watching bbc news. hello there. after a few days of temperatures in the low 20s, we are all in for something much colder for the week ahead. while the weather was quite warm, the sunshine was rather hazy in this cloud that brought rain to scotland and northern ireland is significant and to the north of that, the air was colder and high building towards the uk and that will push that colder airfrom uk and that will push that colder air from there with it will get the wind coming in off the north sea. it should be a dry day on thursday with some spousal sunshine developing it a bit of a great start across northern england and the mittens, but instead of that warm south—westerly wind, the winds coming in from the east and —— mid lands, across eastern parts of the uk as well. with the higher temperature to the southwest of 18 or19 temperature to the southwest of 18 or 19 degrees. with some clear skies following into the evening and that

colder air pushing southwards, we may start friday with a touch of frost here and there but as we head into the start of the easter weekend, high pressure is building across the uk, so it destroyed. but it is cold and likely to remain cold throughout the easter weekend, court enough on monday to get some wintry showers heading our way as well. we've still got a north to north easterly breeze on friday and you'll feel chilly as well, should be dry stilljust feel chilly as well, should be dry still just about everywhere with some sunshine, the best of the sunshine and probably towards the west and its core they're everywhere on good friday with the highs around 13 or 14 degrees on those north sea coast struggling to get into double figures. it is saturday, quiet sort of day with high—pressure still in charge, but more cloud coming down the eastern side of england and elsewhere we are likely to get more sunshine away from the northwest of scotland with temperatures still below half the time of year, still below half the time of year, still below average for this type of the

year. things start to change as we move into easter sunday. high—pressure starts to reseed withdrawal and lower pressure coming dumping the north and we've got that by the front there. that is accompanied by some of stronger winds for the northern half of the uk and moving down across scotland to northern ireland and eventually into the north of england. the south of that, more in the way of sunshine on easter sunday in temperatures 14 degrees and the estrus to get colder in scotland and things start to turn wintry. and —— easter. this cold air coming down from the arctic in time for easter monday. so start to feel much colder and it's going to be cold enough for some winter showers and hail, sleet or snow. could be almost anywhere but it's mostly going to be coming down in that flow around a long coastal areas hitting northern parts of scotland and the fair bit of snow over the high ground in northern scotland. temperatures not getting much above freezing here around five or 7

degrees, but it will feel corridor in the wind. those arctic winds will push colder air in the outlook and down across the north sea and into europe, the air that comes our way does not look quite as cold and he could combine with areas of low pressure and keeping this rather unsettled weather going, but we are more likely to have a mixture of rain and sleet coming in from that cloud rather than snow. temperatures to gradually claim up just a little bit, but it is still on the cold side of this time of the year.

tonight at six, a major report into race relations in the uk is dismissed as divisive and a whitewash. commissioned by the government in the wake of the black lives matter protests, the report found no evidence of institutional racism and said social class and family structure had a bigger impact than race. we don't deny the existence of racism and the reality that it exists and it's there. but we want to, really, in the report come down to the fact that, particularly in education, and employment, and funnily enough in health, we've actually improved. because people from ethnic minority seems to be doing better than their white counterparts, that doesn't mean the system's perfect, it means they've learned to thrive within an imperfect system.
6:01 pm
we'll be examining the report's findings. also tonight...
