:00:09. > :00:18.A report on the trust which runs Bradgate Park in Leicester raises
:00:19. > :00:20.concerns about reputation and how the charity's funds are managed.
:00:21. > :00:23.Also tonight, East Midlands shop owners sound the alarm over
:00:24. > :00:29.It is a substantial bill and it is coming at a time
:00:30. > :00:40.Plus in the sport, the Foxes are on their European tour.
:00:41. > :00:41.They're hoping to take more away from Seville

:01:06. > :01:16.A Nottinghamshire policeman admits he "made a mistake" after failing
:01:17. > :01:18.to notice an elderly man was disqualified from driving.
:01:19. > :01:24.87-year-old Albert Newman had dementia, and was banned in 2013.
:01:25. > :01:26.But in October 2015, he caused a fatal accident
:01:27. > :01:29.after driving the wrong way down the M1 in Leicestershire.
:01:30. > :01:37.PC Jonathan Mortimer is facing charges of gross misconduct
:01:38. > :01:39.after failing to spot the disqualification
:01:40. > :01:40.during a separate incident two months earlier.
:01:41. > :01:49.Giles, what is PC Mortimer accused of?
:01:50. > :01:52.In August 2015, a member of staff at a Nottingham bank called police
:01:53. > :01:54.to say Mr Newman had appeared confused before driving away.
:01:55. > :01:58.But just two months later Albert Newman was involved in that
:01:59. > :02:03.He collided with a van going the other way,
:02:04. > :02:05.killing himself and a passenger in the van, Michael Luciw.
:02:06. > :02:08.This prompted an investigation of the the earlier incident,
:02:09. > :02:10.which led to three charges for PC Mortimer.
:02:11. > :02:12.The first two are failing to make adequate enquiries,
:02:13. > :02:20.The third, most serious allegation is that he falsely claimed to have
:02:21. > :02:22.called the bank that originally made the report.
:02:23. > :02:24.Today solicitors acting for the police authority said
:02:25. > :02:26.this was a clear lie, designed to, in their words,
:02:27. > :02:44.The 41-year-old has admitted to the first two charges, saying
:02:45. > :02:48.But he says, to this day, he remembers calling the bank
:02:49. > :02:51.to follow up their report, despite evidence to suggest
:02:52. > :02:54.His defence counsel said he had no reason to lie,
:02:55. > :02:57.and that he was let down by his memory and not his integrity.
:02:58. > :03:00.The members of the panel have now retired to consider the evidence.
:03:01. > :03:02.If they decide PC Mortimer's actions amount to gross misconduct,

:03:13. > :03:14.I'll have a full forecast later in the

:03:27. > :03:28.The financial management and reputation of one
:03:29. > :03:34.of our region's best-known public parks are under the spotlight.
:03:35. > :03:36.BBC East Midlands Today has obtained an internal audit
:03:37. > :03:40.into the trust which runs Bradgate Park in Leicestershire.
:03:41. > :03:44.The park is a registered charity and gets some of its funds from both
:03:45. > :03:48.The review highlights concerns about financial procedures
:03:49. > :03:51.and recommends an investigation into the way staff are allowed
:03:52. > :04:05.Simon Ward has this exclusive report.
:04:06. > :04:07.More than half a million visitors come to enjoy
:04:08. > :04:11.In 1928, it was given in trust to the people of Leicestershire.
:04:12. > :04:14.Last year, on-site activities alone raised more than ?1 million.
:04:15. > :04:17.The City and County Council funds now account for 3% of annual income.
:04:18. > :04:19.Sales of venison, car parking charges and the tearoom are among
:04:20. > :04:27.This internal audit into Bradgate Park trust was carried
:04:28. > :04:33.out by Leicestershire County Council.
:04:34. > :04:35.It says, among other recommendations, "Little assurance
:04:36. > :04:37."can be given that risks, including those of reputation
:04:38. > :04:38."and income recovery, can be mitigated.".
:04:39. > :04:41.I put some of these points to county councillor Peter Osborne,
:04:42. > :04:44.who has just taken over as chairman of the Bradgate Park Trust.
:04:45. > :04:50.It is not finalised, and it would be really
:04:51. > :04:59.That is the opinion of the auditors, so give us your opinion of that.
:05:00. > :05:02.Well, I would have to go back to the auditors and ask
:05:03. > :05:04.for an individual explanation of a particular item
:05:05. > :05:07.But as I say, on something that is still under review,
:05:08. > :05:19.Well, I would expect you when I have the information in front of me.
:05:20. > :05:22.The report says in black and white it wants a disciplinary
:05:23. > :05:28.investigation into staff about late rental payments and not paying rent.
:05:29. > :05:31.What we do over the accommodation is that we have accommodation that
:05:32. > :05:37.The rents are set by an independent estate agent and then that becomes
:05:38. > :05:43.part of their salary and they pay rent on it.
:05:44. > :05:53.The auditors found there are relaxed staff discounts,
:05:54. > :05:55.possibly leading to issues in relation to tax liabilities.
:05:56. > :05:59.It is serious if there were to be a possibility but that is all...
:06:00. > :06:02.We review everything and when we said in the summer
:06:03. > :06:04.that we wanted to have a look at our financial controls
:06:05. > :06:07.and how we did things, what we said was, all right,
:06:08. > :06:10.Is there any money missing or unaccounted for?
:06:11. > :06:16.All we have are internal processes and procedures
:06:17. > :06:21.In summarising all the recommendations in this report,
:06:22. > :06:24.the auditors say it is now for the trust to urgently consider
:06:25. > :06:33.Police in Derbyshire are renewing their appeal
:06:34. > :06:37.for witnesses after a teenager died in a fatal crash at the weekend.
:06:38. > :06:40.It happened on Ford Bridge Lane in South Normanton just before eight
:06:41. > :06:45.14-year-old Connor Revill died after his push scooter

:07:01. > :07:03.The Health Secretary has agreed to look into the decision to close
:07:04. > :07:06.Lincolnshire County Council referred the decision
:07:07. > :07:11.Today the authority received confirmation that an independent
:07:12. > :07:15.panel will do an initial assessment of the decision, to see if a full
:07:16. > :07:21.It comes on the same day three local MPs met with the Prime Minister
:07:22. > :07:28.to raise their concerns about the unit closing overnight.
:07:29. > :07:31.Colin's in Seville, a city famed for its oranges,
:07:32. > :07:32.where Leicester City are hoping their Champions League
:07:33. > :07:45.campaign doesn't come to a sticky end.
:07:46. > :07:53.It could happen, one bad result and the whole campaign could be over for
:07:54. > :07:58.Leicester City. But the fans are hoping for more. It is a grand
:07:59. > :08:04.historic adventure and we'll talk about it in the sport later.
:08:05. > :08:06.Local shops are warning an impending re-evaluation
:08:07. > :08:08.of their business rates will hit our high streets hard.
:08:09. > :08:10.The amount paid to local councils by all businesses,
:08:11. > :08:12.not just retailers, will be announced this Friday.
:08:13. > :08:15.And in many cases, business owners are bracing themselves for a rise.
:08:16. > :08:17.It's prompted the Broxtowe MP, Anna Soubry, a former
:08:18. > :08:19.Business Minister, to call for a fundamental rethink
:08:20. > :08:21.of the entire system which the region's Chamber
:08:22. > :08:41.Nottingham is said to have the highest percentage
:08:42. > :08:43.of independent retailers in a city centre outside of London.
:08:44. > :08:46.One of the oldest is this cards and gift shop,
:08:47. > :08:48.which has been trading for more than 40 years.
:08:49. > :08:49.Their business rate, the government's tax
:08:50. > :08:52.on business properties, is about to go up.
:08:53. > :08:56.Our increase is likely to be about ?4000-?5,000 a year extra.
:08:57. > :09:00.That is over and above the ?44,000 we already pay.
:09:01. > :09:03.So it is a substantial bill, and it is coming at a time
:09:04. > :09:13.A few hundred metres around the corner from The Tokenhouse
:09:14. > :09:16.is the Treat Kitchen, a chain of five sweet shops
:09:17. > :09:26.In the last six months, our product has become more expensive,
:09:27. > :09:29.our cost of staff has gone up by about 5%, our sales
:09:30. > :09:31.have dropped about 10%, and now our rates are going up.
:09:32. > :09:34.So we are struggling to maintain the network of five shops
:09:35. > :09:37.as a result of all of these added pressures in the last six months.
:09:38. > :09:40.The Broxtowe MP Anna Soubry, herself a former Business Minister,
:09:41. > :09:42.is calling for the rates to be radically reformed or scrapped.
:09:43. > :09:45.A view shared by the East Midlands chamber of commerce.
:09:46. > :09:47.Members feel so strongly, the chief executive has
:09:48. > :09:49.written to the Chancellor, Philip Hammond, asking him
:09:50. > :09:52.to reconsider the way the rates are calculated.
:09:53. > :09:55.The way business rates work in the UK currently
:09:56. > :09:58.Businesses in the UK face the highest upfront costs
:09:59. > :10:04.What we are calling for, at the chamber,
:10:05. > :10:11.We need something based on a business's ability to pay,
:10:12. > :10:13.something that encourages those businesses looking to invest
:10:14. > :10:20.and grow and something that is fair for businesses of all sizes.
:10:21. > :10:22.The Chancellor will deliver his Spring budget next month.
:10:23. > :10:25.Tory MPs and small businesses will want to see if he offers any
:10:26. > :10:26.financial support to independent retailers and businesses
:10:27. > :10:37.facing significant increases in their rates.
:10:38. > :10:39.Campaigners have been protesting outside Leicester's town
:10:40. > :10:42.hall today against plans to shut down their local
:10:43. > :10:46.library and merge it with a nearby recreation centre.
:10:47. > :10:50.The City Council says the move would save around ?15,000 a year.
:10:51. > :10:54.But users of Rushey Mead library are warning it would put a whole
:10:55. > :11:12.Making a racket to save their library. These protesters are angry
:11:13. > :11:16.about council plans to move their local library in Rushey Mead into
:11:17. > :11:22.the nearby recreation centre, saving the council around ?15,000. They're
:11:23. > :11:27.talking about merging two buildings. If that happens, how do you get 130
:11:28. > :11:31.square metres of library into 40 square metres of the building
:11:32. > :11:37.currently earmarked? The building will be too small, it is just a few
:11:38. > :11:43.rooms, and our normal library is much bigger. How important is the
:11:44. > :11:49.library building to the community? Very important, it is the heart and
:11:50. > :11:53.lifeline of Rushey Mead. This is one of the most daft proposal the
:11:54. > :11:57.council has ever come up with. You take a library twice the size of
:11:58. > :12:02.this building here, this room, put it in this room and pretend
:12:03. > :12:06.everything can carry on as before. Children trying to do their homework
:12:07. > :12:13.while elderly people are having their lunch club. The council says
:12:14. > :12:22.it is in during cuts from central government. We are trying to do this
:12:23. > :12:28.as an authority, to safeguard services and reduce cost around
:12:29. > :12:33.buildings. Will there be a scenario with aerobics in one room and kids
:12:34. > :12:40.trying to do homework in the next? There are are more than enough
:12:41. > :12:44.opportunities and gaps in the timetables for this. There should be
:12:45. > :12:49.little issue in regards to providing both sets of services. The council
:12:50. > :12:52.will decide at the meeting tonight whether to go ahead with the merger.
:12:53. > :12:54.Time now for the third of this week's reports on sugar.
:12:55. > :12:56.And with a sugar tax on soft drinks looming,
:12:57. > :12:59.the boss of one East Midlands manufacturer is calling
:13:00. > :13:04.Belvoir Fruit Farms has been expanding for 30 years.
:13:05. > :13:06.But its managing director is worried it could be ruined by any
:13:07. > :13:08.levy on its cordials and sparkling drinks.
:13:09. > :13:21.Our Health Correspondent Rob Sissons has this report.
:13:22. > :13:24.Presses, cordials, made in the shadow of Belvoir Castle.
:13:25. > :13:27.It's a business that employs over 80 people and turns over more
:13:28. > :13:33.But the boss is really worried about the sugar levy.
:13:34. > :13:37.These will be taxed a lot and we've got to work out whether we can make
:13:38. > :13:40.them with lower sugar but with the same amount of quality
:13:41. > :13:43.taste so that customers who love them will not be put off by them.
:13:44. > :13:46.If they do attract the tax, a classic example is ginger beer.
:13:47. > :13:48.Ginger beer, because it is so peppery and sharp
:13:49. > :13:51.with the taste of ginger, it needs sugar to soften it.
:13:52. > :13:53.That one, if we make the ginger beer without sugar,
:13:54. > :13:59.it really doesn't taste very nice at all.
:14:00. > :14:02.Some people will say sugar is sugar and we've got to do something
:14:03. > :14:06.It's not just taxing soft drinks, though.
:14:07. > :14:08.Much better would be to tax bulk sugar.
:14:09. > :14:11.If you taxed sugar which went in everything then the government
:14:12. > :14:17.The sugar tax could work out at least 18p more on the firm's
:14:18. > :14:20.sparkling elderflower presse and put more than a pound on the cost
:14:21. > :14:24.Up to 100,000 bottles pass along this production line every day.
:14:25. > :14:25.This business is worried about the sugar tax,
:14:26. > :14:28.that it could put the brakes on expansion or even put
:14:29. > :14:40.It could have a profound impact on us, depending
:14:41. > :14:43.on how high it is set, where exactly these things kick in,
:14:44. > :14:48.Manufacturers are not forced to pass on the tax to consumers but this
:14:49. > :15:00.company warns they probably won't be able to afford not to.
:15:01. > :15:02.There'll be one name missing from the ballot paper
:15:03. > :15:05.After a 20-year career, Dave Bishop from Nottingham,
:15:06. > :15:07.also known as Lord Biro, has decided to stand down
:15:08. > :15:14.The Bus Pass Elvis Party member made his name,
:15:15. > :15:16.in fact, several names, as part of that British tradition
:15:17. > :15:19.of eccentric parliamentary candidates who always
:15:20. > :15:25.Our political editor Tony Roe's been to meet him.
:15:26. > :15:34.Bishop, David Lawrence, Bus Pass Elvis Party, 67.
:15:35. > :15:37.David Bishop, a self-styled post-secondary modern artist.
:15:38. > :15:44.But after 20 years on the national stage, that's it.
:15:45. > :15:47.A lot of people have had a go at me since and said,
:15:48. > :15:49."You shouldn't have stopped, Dave, and you should have kept
:15:50. > :15:52.going," and all this stuff is going on in the world,
:15:53. > :15:58.Neil Hamilton, I remember his wife saying when I bumped
:15:59. > :16:03.I remember that, doing the Tatton election.
:16:04. > :16:06.So after a career of lost deposits and sharing platforms
:16:07. > :16:07.with mainstream politicians, he is retiring.
:16:08. > :16:11.Never a winner but some minor victories in some local
:16:12. > :16:19.I stood there for the Militant Elvis Anti-Tesco Popular Front and got
:16:20. > :16:22.cashed in and got 323 votes and a great slogan was, "Elvis
:16:23. > :16:35.He'll continue his art, his YouTube films, but Donald Trump's foreign
:16:36. > :16:36.policy might yet bring him out of retirement.
:16:37. > :16:39.Donald Trump's been doing a bit of sabre rattling
:16:40. > :16:43.I thought, "If a situation arises there, I think I ought to come stand
:16:44. > :16:45.in the national interest on that one."
:16:46. > :16:50.Elvis and the Yeti Himalayan Preservation Party.
:16:51. > :17:01.Save the yeti from extinction, uh-huh-huh.
:17:02. > :17:08.Where would we be without our eccentrics?
:17:09. > :17:14.And there still are a lot of eccentrics actively in politics. And
:17:15. > :17:17.now Colin is in Seville for an important football match.
:17:18. > :17:25.Just slightly important! What an adventure. These are all the fans,
:17:26. > :17:31.Leicester and locals from Seville taking selfies. This is what a big
:17:32. > :17:37.Champions League night can do for clubs, it can galvanise a season.
:17:38. > :17:42.This is the knockout stages, last 16 of the Champions League. History
:17:43. > :17:46.making for Leicester City. They're under the threat of relegation and
:17:47. > :17:52.all the pressure means that what should be a treat could be turning
:17:53. > :17:54.into a chore. Even so, the fans have travelled
:17:55. > :17:57.in their thousands upon thousands. They are not, though,
:17:58. > :17:59.expecting very much. We decided we are going to enjoy it
:18:00. > :18:02.as a holiday and not The football match
:18:03. > :18:05.can go to the side. Here's some pretty pictures
:18:06. > :18:21.of Seville instead. But there is actually some football
:18:22. > :18:26.to be played here and this Leicester's terrible
:18:27. > :18:30.league form and lack of European experience compares really
:18:31. > :18:32.badly to that of Seville. It is not hard to find
:18:33. > :18:35.pessimistic voices. We are champions
:18:36. > :18:40.of England but we are certainly not playing
:18:41. > :18:42.like champions at the minute. We've not been defending
:18:43. > :18:46.well, we've stopped scoring goals, one result tonight
:18:47. > :18:50.could change everything. It is about pride,
:18:51. > :18:52.you know, going and If we get beat, let's
:18:53. > :18:55.not get rolled over. Amid all that, the players visibly
:18:56. > :18:58.enjoyed themselves training in the stadium and the Champions League
:18:59. > :19:01.so far has gone better for Leicester If we win, if we do a very good
:19:02. > :19:06.game, something inside It is a new season so, like I say,
:19:07. > :19:18.we need to work hard, each and The boss, the staff,
:19:19. > :19:28.the players themselves, and then come game time when we step
:19:29. > :19:31.over the white line, we need to make sure that we put it
:19:32. > :19:34.all into practice. Still soaking up the disbelieving
:19:35. > :19:38.joy that they are It is not hard to find optimistic
:19:39. > :19:44.voices in Seville either. I wouldn't have come
:19:45. > :19:54.here if I didn't In this bull-fighting
:19:55. > :19:56.city, then, Leicester will take to a ring
:19:57. > :19:58.and face an opponent It is good, I want the matadors,
:19:59. > :20:16.the gladiators, the soldiers, Claudio Ranieri. We have lost Colin
:20:17. > :20:18.for the moment in Spain but we will have an update in our late bulletin
:20:19. > :20:22.at 10:30pm. Just away from Spain for the moment,
:20:23. > :20:25.and Derby County's play-off hopes took another dent last night
:20:26. > :20:27.with a goalless draw A miss from two yards
:20:28. > :20:31.from Darren Bent was the killer. It was the best chance

:21:36. > :21:39.sister, it's me, Joan. You always wear clothes but even you can't hide
:21:40. > :21:43.this forever. A devastating truth at the centre of a play capturing the
:21:44. > :21:48.lives of three Nottingham sisters at the end of World War II. Touched is
:21:49. > :21:54.about the woman left to fend for themselves. In the lead role is the
:21:55. > :21:59.award-winning actress Vicky McClure, who could draw on her own family
:22:00. > :22:05.history. My grandparents both lived through it. They came and watched it
:22:06. > :22:14.on the first night and I asked them lots of questions, what was it like?
:22:15. > :22:20.What did it feel like? Someone has got an old mattress, we'll get
:22:21. > :22:29.things for the bonfire. Nottingham actor Aisling Loftus is now stranger
:22:30. > :22:33.to dramas. You don't often come across things with such good parts
:22:34. > :22:44.for women where the women are so well drawn. We know that when the
:22:45. > :22:48.men were over in the War of the women had to graft, and that still
:22:49. > :22:54.resonates to me with the women in Nottingham. I am proud of that. The
:22:55. > :23:00.play is Vicky McClure's confessional stage debut. I have never performed
:23:01. > :23:06.professionally in front of an audience like this so it is a first.
:23:07. > :23:11.You just have to try it. To work with her was a real... You will make
:23:12. > :23:19.me blush. I jumped at the chance. Big fan. I am a big fan of horror.
:23:20. > :23:24.It sounds like I'm just saying it but she knows. Touched is on at the
:23:25. > :23:28.Nottingham Playhouse until the end of next week.
:23:29. > :23:36.That is brilliant they have both come back to their hometown to tread
:23:37. > :23:41.the boards. OK, we can now go back to Colin.
:23:42. > :23:49.It is a shame not to talk about this match in more depth. I have Rob
:23:50. > :23:53.Tanner from the Leicester Mercury. We heard Claudio Ranieri wanted
:23:54. > :23:59.warriors. They have to get their battling heads on. It will be the
:24:00. > :24:03.toughest test this season. We heard a lot of the fans talking about the
:24:04. > :24:09.best they could hope for was a 3-1 defeat. Have we got to get
:24:10. > :24:13.enthusiastic? I think just forget about the mystic troubles and enjoy
:24:14. > :24:17.this moment. Leicester City are taking on Seville in the last 16 of
:24:18. > :24:22.the Champions League. It's incredible, just enjoy it. Claudio
:24:23. > :24:27.Ranieri, what does he have to do in the dressing room? He has to
:24:28. > :24:30.galvanise them and get them all playing. They have to find it in
:24:31. > :24:35.themselves, a lot of responsibility comes from them as well. I think
:24:36. > :24:39.they will rise to the occasion, they have been waiting all season but
:24:40. > :24:47.this might be the right stage for them, especially people like Mahrez.
:24:48. > :24:55.Full coverage on BBC Radio Leicester this evening and Robson newspaper --
:24:56. > :25:00.Rob's newspaper will round things up tomorrow. Time for Leicester City to
:25:01. > :25:04.get their enthusiasm back. We will be watching. They have gathered
:25:05. > :25:09.behind us. Fingers crossed. I think Seville was
:25:10. > :25:13.frightened by my orange top! Let's take a look at the weather.
:25:14. > :25:27.There is a lot to talk about. Storm Doris is on the way but as we
:25:28. > :25:31.go through the next few hours we have an amber weather warning for
:25:32. > :25:37.wind. That is from 6am tomorrow to around 8pm tomorrow. We are having
:25:38. > :25:42.reports of some events being cancelled tomorrow so tune in to
:25:43. > :25:47.your BBC local radio station or check out local life pages to find
:25:48. > :25:51.out. What might happen over the next 24 hours? We could see some
:25:52. > :25:58.difficulty with trees coming down, fences coming down, and the
:25:59. > :26:02.temptation for some tricky driving conditions, particularly for high
:26:03. > :26:05.sided vehicles. Take extra care. It is not saying that it will
:26:06. > :26:11.definitely happen but be prepared with the amber warning. In the East
:26:12. > :26:17.Midlands we expect to be right in the centre of the amber warning
:26:18. > :26:23.area. We could see gusts of 60 or 70 mph, perhaps up to 80 miles an hour
:26:24. > :26:28.over higher ground. Take extra care tomorrow. The strongest gusts are
:26:29. > :26:38.expected between three and 4pm. This is the track we expect Doris to
:26:39. > :26:43.take. Nice buyers -- the isobars are squeezing together. We expect
:26:44. > :26:51.widespread rain particularly in the early hours tonight. Tomorrow
:26:52. > :26:57.morning we expect more rain on the way and gusts of wind picking up of
:26:58. > :27:02.the afternoon. 50-60 mph in places. A little brightness towards the end
:27:03. > :27:07.of the day with highs of around ten Celsius. Some respite on Friday, a
:27:08. > :27:14.bit cooler, and then more wet and windy weather on Saturday. Whatever
:27:15. > :27:19.you do over the next 24-48 hours, stay in touch with the forecast
:27:20. > :27:21.because we expect lively weather on the way.
:27:22. > :27:23.And if you're affected by Storm Doris tomorrow,
:27:24. > :27:26.wherever you are in the region, we'd love you to get in touch.
:27:27. > :27:38.Send us your stories and pictures via our Facebook page.
:27:39. > :27:44.And that Facebook page is always worth a look anyway.
:27:45. > :27:45.Fingers crossed it is not too bad. And we'll be back with all the
:27:46. > :27:54.football at 10:30pm. Good job, guys.
:27:55. > :27:56.We totally nailed it. This year, fundraising kits are
:27:57. > :28:01.going to be sent through the post.
