lancashire constabulary- the report as far as i can see.ee. i lancashire constabulary used a number of expert consultants to advise them on the parameters of the search. we commend that, that is good practice which other police forces should consider under similar circumstances. i know from my own experience that when searching for people lost in water course ways, both the sea, coastal or tidal, or indeed land—based rivers, is very complex, complicated, and i think the report does justice as to why this was a difficult search and why it took so long for nikolai's body to be found. this is very important, as the commissioner said in his opening comments, nothing could be done that we sort that could have led to the body being found sooner. we made one observation about the recovery. it was predicted that nicola's body would be found during those two days, i think that 20th was the day predicted. the constabulary should have made better preparation for the preservation of the scene to prevent intrusion at the scene to prevent intrusion at th

we are in no doubt that releasing this information in the manner that the constabulary did was both avoidable and unnecessary. england's chief medical officer tells the covid inquiry the first lockdown in 2020 was, in hindsight, too late. and is it finally the end of the road for the hit tv show top gear? and coming up on bbc news, beth mead has been called up to the england squad for their nations league matches against the netherlands and scotland. it's the first time since the serious knee injury that ruled her out of the world cup. good afternoon. police in north wales are searching for four teenagers who have gone missing. jevon hirst, harvey owen, wilf henderson and hugo morris are believed to be from shrewsbury and are thought to have been travelling in the harlech and porthmadog areas of gwynedd after camping in the area. harvey's mother crystal owen has told the bbc she is frantically worried. the police have appealed to the public to report any sightings of the group. our correspondent phil mackie joins us now from porthmadog. phil, what's the latest? i have just been through where

live now to zoe billingham who previously served as his majesty's inspector of constabulary. i am interested for your reaction to these findings. thoughts first of all to the family of nicola bulley. this report is quite right. i remember the news that the police were releasing personal information about someone who had been missing for a number of weeks, stopped us in our tracks, and it's caused lots of women in particular to question whether such deeply personal information relating to perhaps someone�*s mental health, the fact that they were going through menopause, what on earth that would have to do with being able to find nikolai. at that point we were hoping she would be found alive, obviously. —— to find nicola bulley. what i hope is that this sends a clear message to police forces that circumstances like this should not be repeated, and this type of deeply personal information that is not going to help the police to bring an individual home should be kept private. it makes a clear message. talk to as about how these findings can impact policing and police methods goi

a short time ago i spoke to zoe billingham who served for constabulary and fire and rescue services.tives yesterday. first and foremost was that the armistice the remembrance commemorations around the cenotaph and in central london could pass off peacefully. as we know, in the morning, that was achieved. the metropolitan police also wanted to prevent serious disorder. in a sense the metropolitan police had 1850 officers on the streets, double the number of officers previously. they kept the pro—palestinian protesters away from the far right protesters. but as we saw, it was well covered on the media, there were scuffles and skirmishers, led by the far right protesters. there was some disorder. a number of arrests. but thinking about how badly wrong this potentially could have gone i think the metropolitan police will think they have met their objectives of yesterday. there was tension in the lead up to yesterday, a stand—off between sir mark rowley metropolitan police commissioner, and the home secretary. she called these hate marches, they should not be allowed to go ahead, he pushe

the black and tons were a british. force recruited to assist the royal irish constabulary in maintaining control over the ira during the irish war of independence. many had been ex- british and irish soldiers signed up to suppress the irish upprising with many committing atrocities against irish citizens. in september 1920, in revenge for the murder of the ric district inspector and his brother, the black and ton sacked the town of balbergan. they burned and destroyed homes and businesses and beat two republicans to death, as would... as well recognized at the time, the majority of those attacked were victims innocent of any documented complicity. incort in december, 1920, two local boys with no ira connections were murdered by the black and tons for what they described as impudence. their bodies were thrown into a ditch after being dragged behind one of the dread at lauries until they were unrecognizably mangled. this was just one example of what poet wb yeits referred to in his poem repreisals as half drunk or whole. mad soljery. wbh8's sister lily wrote to her father john in december

everyone agreed with yes, vasyl stus had the right to say that to ivan dzyuba, because he was in the constabulary, he was all his life put it, he had the right, but most of the people who were sitting under their warm apartments did not have such a right to talk to the jubi, because they had no deeds in their souls, and these are deeds, and jubi, there were deeds, and how many there were, by the way, addressed to dzyuba, you never talked about it once, not once, but recently, on the anniversary of ivan mykhailovych, oksana pokhlivska wrote a brilliant text, and she replied to those who are now in their eighties, who began to say that they say that the 60s fell silent, that they didn’t fight, that it’s already at the turn of the 90s and zeroes, they say, where are you, the 60s, here, where, ivan juba wrote, how much, he’s a workaholic, by the way, he’s a human being, he, when they asked about the jubilee, he wrote a whole anti-jubilee manifesto, he hated anniversaries, hated because they take time, they take away time of work, he worked for ukraine, for ukraine, he is like the minister of culture.

recommendations in the report and we will implement the changes that need to be made for lancashire constabularyork. experts correctly predicted nearly to the exact day when they believed nicola's body would be found. but the intervening three weeks saw what it described as a global social media frenzy as people voiced alternative theories about what may have happened to her. the role of the independent underwater search expert peter faulding was also criticised. i wish we could have actually at least found something to rule out if nicola's in the river. his public statements caused consternation at lancashire police headquarters, who believed he shouldn't be talking to the press. he says he signed no agreement not to talk publicly. ultimately this whole sorry public saga would have had a lot lower profile if lancashire police had given the bigger picture shortly after nicola bulley disappeared. danny savage, bbc news, preston. king charles is hosting his first state visit since his coronation. three—day trip to the uk — with trade and investment expected to be a key focus. live now to our repor

and the man who recently stood down as the chief inspector of constabulary says he has seen no signshanded. i think it has been under previous commissioners as well, and therefore i think the accusation of having favourites and partiality is misconceived and ill—advised, and should not have been made. in her controversial article arguing that police were "playing favourites", suella braverman also highlighted the differences during the covid pandemic between how anti—lockdown protests and black lives matter protests were policed. and this is a more uncomfortable comparison for scotland yard because statistics show that in london many more people were arrested for breaching covid regulations at anti—lockdown protests than at the main black lives matter demonstrations, even though some of them were happening at around the same time. so, why didn�*t sir mark rowleyjust do what the home secretary asked and ban saturday�*s march at her request? well, he thought that would be unlawful. and injuly, suella braverman herself renewed the rules under which forces work — which say "the operation
