in a few minutes over on BBC Two, but now on BBC One it's time

:00:00.:00:13.

And now news for the East Mhdlands. I'm Geeta Pendse.

:00:14.:00:16.

The Prime Minister David Caleron has his new ministerial team in place.

:00:17.:00:20.

Two days of hiring and firing has resulted in

:00:21.:00:24.

significant moves for some of our biggest political personalities

:00:25.:00:28.

And it's Loughborough's MP, Nicky Morgan, who tonight is

:00:29.:00:31.

She's the new Education Secretary, replacing the controversial

:00:32.:00:36.

Little wonder Niki Morgan w`s smiling in her way into

:00:37.:00:43.

Education Secretary is a big, high`profile job and

:00:44.:00:48.

after last week's national strike by many teachers, the Prime

:00:49.:00:51.

Minister may want some fencd`mending with the teaching profession.

:00:52.:00:55.

Only a few months ago, Michael Gove was visiting a school

:00:56.:00:58.

Perhaps someone should have warned him ` look behind yot.

:00:59.:01:03.

And this praise from another minister on thd move.

:01:04.:01:06.

Nicky Morgan is a great belhever in Michael Gove's reforms,

:01:07.:01:09.

The Grantham and Stanford MP Nick Boles switches

:01:10.:01:14.

from planning minister to the Department for Business.

:01:15.:01:18.

And promotion, too, for Broxtowe's Anna Soubry,

:01:19.:01:21.

up the ranks at the Ministrx of Defence, where she is now second

:01:22.:01:24.

Moving on and out of Governlent is Rushcliffe's Ken Clarke.

:01:25.:01:30.

Also gone, Alan Duncan, the Rutland and Melton MP.

:01:31.:01:33.

He had been International Development Mhnister

:01:34.:01:36.

Also gone, is Andrew Robeson, the MP for South Leicestershire

:01:37.:01:42.

He was the Northern Ireland minister.

:01:43.:01:44.

So what type of Education Sdcretary will Nicky Morgan make?

:01:45.:01:50.

The education establishment may find she sets a fast pace.

:01:51.:01:57.

A little earlier, Ken Clarke told Dominic Heale he

:01:58.:02:00.

still intends to play an active role in the House of Commons.

:02:01.:02:04.

He said he thought those newly appointed would show

:02:05.:02:07.

No prime minister I have worked for, and I've worked for four now,

:02:08.:02:13.

has had a reshuffle where I have agreed with every bit.

:02:14.:02:16.

I am sorry for some of my friends and disappointed

:02:17.:02:19.

Obviously, what he is trying to do is put together is

:02:20.:02:24.

a government he would like to form after the next election.

:02:25.:02:27.

Here is an indication of what it would look like,

:02:28.:02:30.

and these people have ten months to show they are up to the job, which

:02:31.:02:33.

I think, the ones he's appohnted so far, most undoubtedly ard.

:02:34.:02:36.

More time for you, does that mean more time to indulge your hobbies?

:02:37.:02:40.

Love of jazz, and bird`watching and so on?

:02:41.:02:43.

I don't neglect them when I'm in office.

:02:44.:02:46.

It was tricky when I was the Chancellor of the Exchepuer

:02:47.:02:49.

sometimes, a bit tricky when I was at the Department of Health because

:02:50.:02:53.

it is fairly lively, but, yds, I do think it is quite important to

:02:54.:02:56.

The things I enjoy are things which I'm so absorbed in,

:02:57.:03:02.

I take my mind all away from politics and government.

:03:03.:03:04.

It is all right for a bit and then I'm actually

:03:05.:03:07.

as much an addict of politics and government as I was when I started.

:03:08.:03:11.

I enjoy the House of Commons as much as the first day whdn I

:03:12.:03:14.

I will try and keep the right balance but a bit more cricket will

:03:15.:03:20.

be welcome, particularly if the weather stays like this.

:03:21.:03:22.

One of our police forces is testing powerful new technology

:03:23.:03:27.

It's able to identify suspects, who've been caught on camer`,

:03:28.:03:32.

Leicestershire Police say it could transform

:03:33.:03:36.

CCTV has become a vital part of police investigations.

:03:37.:03:45.

Footage that shows who is at the scene of a crime

:03:46.:03:47.

but identifying the suspects can take weeks of detective work.

:03:48.:03:51.

Now, though, Hilary can find a match in seconds using thhs new

:03:52.:03:55.

This demonstration shows how police employees picked out from a data

:03:56.:04:00.

base of every suspect whose picture is on the force computer system

:04:01.:04:05.

It can even spot family members with similar facial features.

:04:06.:04:09.

It is amazing to be able to sort through 92,000 images in a latter

:04:10.:04:12.

It will be such a useful tool to officers out on the beat.

:04:13.:04:17.

It could be low level shoplifting to murder scenes.

:04:18.:04:19.

It's not DNA, it's not fingdr prints, it's a suggestion.

:04:20.:04:22.

This person is potentially of interest to your inquiry.

:04:23.:04:26.

They are checking footage from these new body`worn cameras, as wdll

:04:27.:04:30.

The results can't be used as evidence in court

:04:31.:04:34.

but the trial has already identified around 100 suspects.

:04:35.:04:39.

That has potentially saved ts tens of thousands of hours

:04:40.:04:42.

It may well have found individuals who might never have

:04:43.:04:46.

Some people will be worried, won't they, that it is a bit big brother?

:04:47.:04:53.

This is very powerful technology that can track people's livds.

:04:54.:05:02.

It's searching data bases of people who have been arrested and we have

:05:03.:05:06.

It's not searching the data base of anything else.

:05:07.:05:10.

For now, this is just a tri`l but Leicestershire Police think this

:05:11.:05:13.

facial recognition system is more advanced than anywhere else in the

:05:14.:05:16.

world and it's already attr`cting interest from other forces `s far

:05:17.:05:19.

What's believed to be the rdgion's first white`painted ghostbike

:05:20.:05:28.

has been left at a roadside as a tribute to a cyclist who died.

:05:29.:05:32.

It's not clear who's left the ghostbike at the junction of

:05:33.:05:35.

Lower Parliament Street and Pennyfoot Street in Nottingham.

:05:36.:05:38.

It's near the spot where 29`year`old cyclist Louise Wright was f`tally

:05:39.:05:41.

injured after a collision whth a lorry on July 3rd.

:05:42.:05:45.

Ghostbikes have become an increasingly popular way to remember

:05:46.:05:49.

Police discovered a cannabis farm as a result of a public campaign

:05:50.:05:56.

The cards were recently handed out so people could discover

:05:57.:06:01.

A member of the public tippdd`off the police

:06:02.:06:05.

Today officers raided it and found 400 plants with an

:06:06.:06:10.

estimated street value of jtst under a quarter of a million pounds.

:06:11.:06:15.

That's your news. So, it's goodbye from me but with your weathdr now,

:06:16.:06:18.

Things are certainly hotting up over the next few days. We have got a

:06:19.:06:28.

warm front pushing northwards through tonight. Behind that we will

:06:29.:06:35.

be dragging in some humid there Not much rain. The next few days the

:06:36.:06:40.

temperatures will be climbing up day by day. We will be up to thd high

:06:41.:06:45.

20s by Friday. The humidity will be building as well. That could spark

:06:46.:06:50.

off some thunderstorms. For the next couple of days, we're going to stay

:06:51.:06:55.

mostly dry. We're going to stay dry to stay dry tonight and cle`r spells

:06:56.:06:58.

developing and temperatures not falling far. Humid night with lows

:06:59.:07:05.

13 Celsius. Tomorrow morning we will start drive. Some brightness in the

:07:06.:07:08.

morning but the cloud will be thickening up again as we h`d

:07:09.:07:12.

through the morning and into the afternoon. But we are going to be

:07:13.:07:15.

even warmer tomorrow with temperatures creeping up to 232

:07:16.:07:21.

Celsius. That's me be true `nd bring in some thunder repost to `` send

:07:22.:07:27.

the storms to northern parts. As you can see from the club, it'll be

:07:28.:07:29.

getting warmer through Thursday and tricky situation. Matt will explain

:07:30.:07:34.

more. And he will tell you that it didn't rain today.

:07:35.:07:40.

The outlook for the next 40 days will be straightforward to St swith

:07:41.:07:47.

an were to be believed. Thankfully for my job at least, it is far from

:07:48.:07:51.

straightforward. Even after today, a dry day, weather is on the turn in

:07:52.:07:56.

Northern Ireland and Scotland. Around western coastal hills of

:07:57.:07:59.

England and Wales turning misty with light rain and drizzle. For most a

dry night with clear skies. Temperatures a degree or so down on
