New claims from a former he`d of social services linking our region | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
to an alleged paedophile network at the heart of the establishment. | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
This was something which was alarming, that opened a Pandora s | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
box. David Tombs said he raised concerns | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
to the Department of Health 20 years Tahir Alam and his Board of Trustees | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
at Park View Trust resign following allegations of a Luslim | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
takeover plot. We are now at a stage where our | :00:33. | :00:42. | |
students are asking, why do people think I am a terrorist? | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
Delays on the line ` it's likely to take more th`n two | :00:46. | :00:48. | |

sunbaked fields in clear blte skies and sweltering temper`tures. | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
It could soon be a reality, but not without its drawbacks. | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
There have been new claims linking our region with | :01:06. | :01:21. | |
an alleged paedophile network at the heart of the establishment. | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
A former head of social services for Hereford and Worcester has spoken | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
of how he took his concerns about a paedophile ring to bosses in the | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
But David Tombs says his warnings were ignored. | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
His claims back up those already made by a colleague of his hn social | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
services and also by a formdr West Mercia police detectivd. | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
At home in Ledbury, retired for some 20 years. | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
David Tombs was once a national authority in sochal | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
services, a man used to havhng his concerns taken seriouslx. | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
So when in the early ?90s he heard `bout the | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
case of Peter Righton, a paddophile from Evesham whose activitids | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
allegedly implicated dozens of high`profile figures, he thought the | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
I was told that I was probably wasting my time, that there were... | :02:09. | :02:19. | |
The words used were along these lines. | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
That there were ?too many of them over there?. | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
Now, I was talking about paedophhlia | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
I was in the Department of Health and the "over there" | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
to me indicated, although the words were not used, within Parli`ment or | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
David Tombs? account of a cover`up might sound f`miliar. | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
That's because the case of Peter Righton ` who's now ddad ` | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
is linked to Operation Fairbank the current police investig`tion | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
into claims of a paedophile network linked to Downing Street. | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
It all started in October 1892 when West Bromwich Labour MP Tom | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
Watson stood up in the Commons and asked for | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
Now he'd been given information from one of Mr Tombs? colleagues, the | :03:00. | :03:06. | |
former child protection man`ger Peter McKelvie. He spoke publicly | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
last week, saying he believdd at least 20 prominent men were involved | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
Two days later, his story w`s corroborated by the former West | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
Now he claimed he had found suitcases full of correspondence | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
under Righton's bed linking establishment figures to paddophilia | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
and that despite the police knowing about the evidence nothing was done. | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
David Tombs has described the Righton case as a Pandora's box that | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
It seems to me that the one place I should be able to come to to alert | :03:40. | :03:53. | |
the nation to this issue was the Department of Health. | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
And it didn't look as if I was going to get any kind of response. | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
Tonight, a spokesperson for the Department of Health sahd she | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
couldn't comment on Mr Tombs? claims because of the imminent enqtiry | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
The chairman of the education trust at the centre | :04:09. | :04:16. | |
of the alleged Trojan Horse Muslim takeover plot in Birmingham schools | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
has resigned along with his entire Board of Trustees. | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
Our political reporter, Kathryn Stanczyszyn, is at the | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
Well, Elliott, the head teacher stood in front of these eight is so | :04:28. | :04:42. | |
widely pictured over the last four months and announced he was stepping | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
down along with his trustees at this trust. He did not go quietlx, saying | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
the message from Government is clear. You can comment on these East | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
Birmingham 's and run the schools and improve them you know c`nnot be | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
trusted to carry on. Ofsted downgraded three of the schools run | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
by this trust last month and Mr Alam said it was a vicious attack. Ofsted | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
found that the trust had bedn pushing an Islamic agenda and there | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
was a culture of fear and intimidation amongst staff, | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
something Mr Alam has strentously denied. In his resignation, he said | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
there was no apologies, no regrets, just concern for the pupils here. | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
Our grade A students are asking why do people think I am a | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
terrorist? They are worrying about the impact having Park View on their | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
might have on the chances of securing a college, univershty or a | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
future job prospect. The trtth is that no`one cared about the children | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
and young people in Birmingham when the schools were failing them | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
There was little doubt eithdr of who Mr Alam blame for this. He spoke | :05:47. | :06:00. | |
about Michael Gove. He said he has a profound mistrust of Islam, that is | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
on public record, and that hs what has allowed suspicion to grow and | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
concerns to be blown out of proportion. | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
What happens now at the schools involved? | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
All three trustees will now be replaced. The Department for | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
Education are involved in this. Other heads from outstanding schools | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
are likely to come in and hdlp run the school from September. | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
How a company from Stoke is transforming the back | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
of bus seats into interactive maps for the Commonwealth Games. | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
It's likely to take MPs mord than two years to assess hundreds | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
of petitions against the high speed rail link | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
An influential Government committee has spent the day in the Midlands | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
looking at sites which could be affected by the line. | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
Our transport correspondent Peter Plisner is at Curzon Street in | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
Birmingham, which would be the site of the main station for the project. | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
Why is it going to take so long for these petitions to be hdard | :07:01. | :07:08. | |
I think it is the sheer weight of petitions that have been received by | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
those opposed to HS2 and indeed the hybrid bill that could clear the way | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
for it to be built. At the dnd of June when the deadline passdd, 900 | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
petitions had been put forw`rd by people directly affected by the | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
line. All of those have perlission to address the committee personally. | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
That is why we will see so luch time taken. The committee was he`rd in | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
the Midlands all day today `nd visited this site. This is where we | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
saw plans for what will be the UK's biggest HS2 station. They also saw | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
other parts of Birmingham and the area. I talked to the chairlan of | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
the committee and he talked about the timescales. We would be lucky to | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
do it in under two years. It depends about this petitions and sole of the | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
changes we might make. Many of the petitions depend on decisions the | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
committee might make. So, wd intend to deal with it as quickly `s we | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
can. Did the committee meet with any of the objectors today? | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
They did. They spent all dax year and went to a village badly affected | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
by plans for HS2. They encotntered a small protest here and some of those | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
people had put petitions in. I spoke to one of those who did spe`k to one | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
of the committee members and visitors what they said. Thdy were | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
very reasonable. I hope thex will take on board some of the things we | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
said. What did you talk abott? I thought it was a waste of money and | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
they should look at the altdrnative proposals we have put forward. It | :08:39. | :08:47. | |
does rather make deadlines pretty tight if construction will start in | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
2017. One or bit of HS2 news. It is highly likely the Government will | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
announce that HS2 Limited, The company behind the controversial | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
scheme, will move its headqtarters from London to Birmingham so that | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
they can be in Birmingham to manage the construction phase of the | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
project. A Birmingham man charged with | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
facilitating terrorism has been West Midlands Police say 20`year`old | :09:16. | :09:17. | |

hour before they were found stabbed A 23`year`old man remains in | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
a critical condition in hospital, The Labour Party has announced that | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
former Transport Minister D`vid Jamieson has been selected | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
as the candidate for West Mhdlands Mr Jamieson, who's from Solhhull, | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
was MP for Plymouth The by`election was called | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
after the death There have been comings | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
and goings all day at Number 10 Downing Street, as the Primd | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
Minister reshapes his Cabindt. And it's had some major | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
repercussions here in the Mhdlands. The North Shropshire MP Owen | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
Paterson has been sacked as Environment Secretary | :10:16. | :10:18. | |
but there's been a promotion Our political editor Patrick Burns | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
has been So, Patrick, | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
not a good day for Owen Patterson? Absolutely not. I am told that | :10:27. | :10:37. | |
unlike some of his colleaguds, Owen Paterson was in no mood to stand | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
down. This really is a filing. Why? Partly because of his response to | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
the flooding emergency. There was the failed badger cull and those | :10:49. | :10:55. | |
notorious comments about Defra's handling of the measures to prevent | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
TB and cattle spreading. Asked about the failure of pilots, incltding one | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
in Gloucestershire, he said the badgers moved the goalposts. He has | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
had a rough ride since he took over the job Environment Secretary two | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
years ago from one of his fdllow Midlands MPs. He has been no | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
stranger to controversy. He has been sceptical about climate change and a | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
very public opponent of the Government's Same`sex Marri`ge Bill. | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
Where some MPs lose out, others gain. Good news for Jeremy Wright. | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
That is the way of it. Mr Wright has landed the top job of Attorney | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
General, which makes in the Government's chief legal adviser. He | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
is a specialist in criminal law who practised as a barrister at | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
Birmingham Chambers and has been an MP since 2005. He was then the | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
Minister for prison is and rehabilitation since 2012. This is a | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
significant motion. Some of those tipped for thd top | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
jobs? We're still waiting for details for possible top jobs for | :11:56. | :12:02. | |
some of our Midlands MPs who are female. | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
They are more likely to be junior roles. | :12:05. | :12:14. | |

A Stoke`on`Trent technology company is helping to give passengers on | :12:28. | :12:29. | |
buses in Glasgow a more intdractive Commonwealth Games experience. | :12:30. | :12:31. | |
It means people with smartphones or tablets will be able to find out | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
more about the Games, the vdnues and the competitors all by scanning a | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
And as our Staffordshire reporter Liz Copper's been finding ott, | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
This hi`tech firm's taking on companies in Silicon Valley. | :12:43. | :12:52. | |
Its name is Ooh`AR and AR stands for "augmented reality". | :12:53. | :12:55. | |
All this from its headquartdrs in Burslem in Stoke`on`Trent. | :12:56. | :13:04. | |
What is augmented reality? Ht is a bridge between the real world and | :13:05. | :13:11. | |
digital world. By pointing xour smartphone or tablet at a phece of | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
packaging or piece of print or even a bus seat, we can access htge | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
amounts of information. It streams to that device so customers can be | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
engaged about products and services but then they can immediately start | :13:26. | :13:27. | |
to interact with that content using the touch`screen to sign up or | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
joining or buy things. One of the company's most hhgh | :13:33. | :13:33. | |
profile projects has been l`unched The technology's being used on | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
the back of bus seats in Gl`sgow. Once you switch it on, you hold it | :13:37. | :13:47. | |
and it will pick the trigger lock and the information comes to life as | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
you're travelling towards the city centre. You can see information on | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
Glasgow and you can also tap it and it will take you to different | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
websites where you can get information on what is happdning in | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
Glasgow and also on timetables for other services. | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
The Prince of Wales was shown how the technology works | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
He was obviously entertained, but there's serious business | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
In education, it will be very big. When you do your shopping, xou will | :14:11. | :14:23. | |
see it in stores. Almost evdry sector of everyday life it hs going | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
to touch. This innovation's part | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
of a fast`moving industry Augmented reality is a big growth | :14:31. | :14:39. | |
area. This is not the only company to capitalise on that potential but | :14:40. | :14:42. | |
it is at the forefront of an emerging business opportunity. | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
New claims from a former he`d of social services linking our region | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
to an alleged paedophile network at the heart of the establishment. | :14:51. | :14:56. | |

We drop in on the fledgling peregrine falcon | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
And what connects the University of Gloucestershire with athletes | :15:04. | :15:10. | |
Teenage pregnancies and sextally transmitted diseases are thhngs we | :15:11. | :15:25. | |
would all rather not think `bout ` especially when it comes to | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
But like it or not, teenagers are thinking about people they fancy. | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
As part of our Midlands Tomorrow series, we sent Noreen Khan | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
from the BBC's Asian Network to a successful project that encourages | :15:38. | :15:46. | |
the fight against unwanted pregnancies and sexually tr`nsmitted | :15:47. | :15:56. | |
I went along to a session in the city called Be Savvy, which | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
encourages youngsters to thhnk carefully about safe sex and the | :16:01. | :16:02. | |
Like, relationships and young people, because I don't think, young | :16:03. | :16:20. | |
girls especially, are aware of the things they can pick up frol it | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
Even in 2014, talking about sex is tricky. | :16:25. | :16:25. | |
I think parents need to realise that some of their children are having | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
sexual relationships, even `t 1 and 16, they should realise we will | :16:30. | :16:31. | |
Friends and people feel pressure to have sex at an early age and lose | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
Do you feel a lot of pressure from the media, from social | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
networking sites, from peers that you should be out there havhng sex? | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
Yes, a lot of the music viddos now are talking about sex, even | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
in videos it is really reve`ling, girls walk around half naked. | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
That is a big impact for us, you have to live with that, that is | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
For girls, it makes them feel they havd to look | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
like that, or act in a cert`in way to get a boy's attention. | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
Someone like Miley Cyrus went from having a good image, from bding | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
What do you want to say to `dults that think young people shotldn t be | :17:20. | :17:32. | |
thinking about sex, let alone be talking about ht, | :17:33. | :17:34. | |
If they think back to what they were doing at that age, thex were | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
At a younger age, 14, peopld think they know what love is. | :17:40. | :17:46. | |
I don't think they should commit themselves at 14, | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
Even for me, as a grown`up, the subject of sex can be awkward, | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
but perhaps we all need to think about the language we are using | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
when talking about sex and how we inform the next | :18:02. | :18:03. | |
Just like the birds and the bees, this is | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
And if you've got a story about what it's like to be xoung | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
and growing up in the Midlands, then we want to hear from you. | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
You can email us or get in touch on Facebook or Twitter using | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
Three aircraft, which flew during World War One, arrivdd at | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
They will form the main part of a new exhibition to show visitors | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
how some of the Great War w`s fought in the air. | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
These aircraft, all wonders of the First World War, filled here | :18:39. | :18:43. | |

You couldn't have imagined we were going to war in these things, | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
that is how things have movdd on, and moved on from 100 mile | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
They are not my cup of tea, I prefer Second World War ahrcraft. | :19:35. | :19:43. | |
But any aircraft generally, but if I had a priority, | :19:44. | :19:45. | |
Anything up to the Second World War is mine. | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
Take the top wing off and you have ruined an aeroplane. | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
They will remain hidden frol public view for several months while minor | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
This Sopwith one ? Strutter would once have carried two men | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
But the amazing thing is th`t it is incredibly light, made of wood. | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
The aeroplanes will form part of an exhibition there, the First World | :20:14. | :20:16. | |

Peregrine Falcons nesting on the BT Tower in the heart of Birmingham | :20:28. | :20:30. | |
The baby peregrine appears to be thriving and should make it's | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
Our Environment Correspondent David Gregory`Kumar has been keephng | :20:35. | :20:43. | |
a beady eye on the chick's first few weeks of life. | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
The newest addition to Birmhngham's skyline. | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
The first since the BT Tower was made more | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
replicate the natural surrotndings of the Peregrine Falcons. | :20:58. | :21:09. | |
That did the trick, ever since then, we have seen eggs being laid | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
in successive years, unforttnately none of them have hatched, for | :21:16. | :21:17. | |
These pictures are from a few weeks ago, but look how much | :21:18. | :21:25. | |
He or she looks perfectly h`ppy but there are some tricky moments ahead. | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
In a few weeks, this chick will fledge, | :21:31. | :21:32. | |
That is a dangerous point, especially for urban falcons. | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
In the wild, when it comes back after | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
its first flight, it can gr`b onto twigs and branches, if it mhsses | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
the nest, but this smooth`shded building means it cannot do that, | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
Meanwhile, in Hanley in Staffordshire, another BT | :21:51. | :21:57. | |
Perhaps as many as four chicks being raised by these peregrines. | :21:58. | :22:05. | |
Back at the BT Tower and the single chick is almost ready | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
Mike Tindall is to retire from playing rugby union | :22:09. | :22:22. | |
The former England captain was player`coach | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
at Gloucester last season, but hasn't been offered a new contract. | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
The 35`year`old centre, who joined Gloucester from Bath in 2004, won 75 | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
caps for his country and was part of the World Cup winning team hn 2 03. | :22:35. | :22:44. | |
We have had dialogue about keeping him in the cltb | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
in an ambassadorial role, which I know he has spoken `bout. | :22:48. | :22:49. | |
We are not pressuring him, he has a wonderful life ahe`d | :22:50. | :22:54. | |
of them, new baby, wonderful wife, the world is his oyster. | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
We would love him to come b`ck and be involved with the cltb. | :22:57. | :23:06. | |
Two weeks today, the Commonwealth Games will be underway in Glasgow. | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
And one university is helping to prepare competitors | :23:10. | :23:10. | |
Nearly forty athletes from Lalawi are training at the Univershty | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
A successful partnership th`t was forged two years ago at the | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
This machine is helping Mal`wi's table tennis players improvd | :23:18. | :23:25. | |
It is not a widely popular sport in Africa, clubs are scarce | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
Malawi's players have not sden this kind of kit before. | :23:32. | :23:43. | |
It spins the ball very hard, which makes us play difficult shots, | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
that helps us in matches to return a difficult balls. | :23:49. | :23:56. | |
We are very delighted to usd it for the first time. | :23:57. | :23:59. | |
We hope the popularity will increasd and | :24:00. | :24:00. | |
then we'll have the chance of having some more equipment of this nature. | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
We use any table to start whth in schools, the desks of our | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
schoolteachers, those who are doing better go to our training cdntre. | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
The University of Gloucestershire's link with Malawi has flourished | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
since the London Olympics, when four athletes came to prepare, | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
this time it is nearly 40 across eight different sports. | :24:23. | :24:31. | |
Part of our job is to help high`level athletes. | :24:32. | :24:33. | |
The fact that we have a relationship with Malawi leans we | :24:34. | :24:35. | |
It is a country which needs some support, they have great raw talent | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
but they haven't the facilities and expertise that we do. | :24:41. | :24:47. | |
Some of the players here pl`y professionally, | :24:48. | :24:49. | |
we have some of our players in the Australian and New Zealand league. | :24:50. | :24:52. | |
The girls in Malawi are willing to be professional. | :24:53. | :24:54. | |
So that they can play outside of the country. | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
If the Malawi team do win their fourth ever Commonwealth | :24:59. | :25:01. | |
medal, the University of Gloucestershire could be taking | :25:02. | :25:04. | |
