:03:16. > :03:21.It has now reached a significant stage
:03:22. > :03:24.and they are working to bring it to a close.

:03:27. > :03:28.recruitment drive to bring in more ethnic minority
:03:29. > :03:37.They were having recruiting drives then. The reason they do not achieve
:03:38. > :03:44.anything in 30 years is because you get cases like mine. Recruitment,
:03:45. > :03:47.retention, progression. They have stopped my progression. That is why
:03:48. > :03:51.ethnic minorities cannot progress, no matter how good they are. Kei
:03:52. > :03:58.police told us that the orchestrated by the length of the investigation
:03:59. > :04:06.into Harmit Bahra's case. -- Bedfordshire Police. They look
:04:07. > :04:09.forward to the outcome. They have told us they celebrate diversity and

:04:11. > :04:12.Well, Inspector Mike Chand from Bedfordshire Police campaigns
:04:13. > :04:15.to get more black and ethic minority officers in the force.
:04:16. > :04:17.I asked him if recruitment drives are enough
:04:18. > :04:19.or if more needs to be done to promote officers like
:04:20. > :04:23.Historically and nationally, the police, I feel, haven't done
:04:24. > :04:25.enough to first of all keep BME candidates,
:04:26. > :04:30.The Government introduced positive action but I think as yet,
:04:31. > :04:33.no force has taken positivity up so I think it's an area
:04:34. > :04:42.We're talking today about a case where the man won
:04:43. > :04:45.his tribunal in three years ago and he claimed that there was an
:04:46. > :04:46.institutional racism acting against him that meant
:04:47. > :04:50.Do you think that perception is a bad thing for people
:04:51. > :04:52.thinking of going into the police force?
:04:53. > :04:56.Well, first of all, I can't comment on a live case so I won't.
:04:57. > :04:59.However, talking about the police force in general,
:05:00. > :05:05.the perception BME people have of the police force is
:05:06. > :05:07.actually they could be racist and historically,
:05:08. > :05:13.and that generally is what people perceive it to be.
:05:14. > :05:15.However, times have changed, people are now joining the
:05:16. > :05:22.system, learning about the system and I think going ahead,
:05:23. > :05:24.if it doesn't change, there'll be some serious issues
:05:25. > :05:28.What more would you like to see done in terms of recruitment,
:05:29. > :05:30.retention and progression of BME officers?
:05:31. > :05:32.Well, I'd like all police forces to take up the option
:05:33. > :05:38.of positive retention, positive promotion.
:05:39. > :05:44.At the end of the day, the law's been made, rules have
:05:45. > :05:47.been engaged by the government in order to solve these issues and if
:05:48. > :05:53.then what's the point of having them there?
:05:54. > :05:55.The demographics of society have changed.
:05:56. > :05:58.If the police forces don't change with them,
:05:59. > :06:01.then I can say they won't be doing the service that the public require.
:06:02. > :06:03.It's not just about the numbers and statistics, is it?
:06:04. > :06:06.Why is it important that the police force reflect
:06:07. > :06:10.Well, ultimately the public are the police and
:06:11. > :06:16.If we're not reflecting our communities then how
:06:17. > :06:20.I mean, ultimately that's the goal of any police force
:06:21. > :06:24.and if communities are not being served because actually there's
:06:25. > :06:26.no one that looks like them, talks like them,
:06:27. > :06:29.understands their culture, then
:06:30. > :06:32.how can you possibly reflect them and how can you serve them?
:06:33. > :06:34.People need to understand that you need BME minorities
:06:35. > :06:41.within the executive ranks so they can make those
:06:42. > :06:44.informed decisions on cultures and communities.
:06:45. > :06:50.Without that, you are simply going to get a biased view of
:06:51. > :06:58.the world and ultimately biased decisions.

:07:32. > :07:33.Across the globe, mines kill over 800 people every month.
:07:34. > :07:36.An international mine banning treaty was introduced 20 years ago,

:07:44. > :07:45.Now, although some states still do use and produce them,
:07:46. > :07:50.the number's fallen dramatically thanks mainly to this treaty.
:07:51. > :07:54.But perhaps more importantly, tens of millions of mines

:10:18. > :10:21.what we were hoping but we weren't quite sure on the day so
:10:22. > :10:23.when she actually agreed to do it, that was quite,

:10:29. > :10:32.to actually feed the elephant a banana?"
:10:33. > :10:35.A term I am not familiar with, really, but it was quite nice
:10:36. > :10:38.to hear it and, yes, she was happy to do it.

:11:27. > :11:29.A few things that have gone in, yeah, with modern days and

:11:50. > :11:51.Designed by award-winning architects, it's hoped the centre
:11:52. > :11:54.will play host to a growing family of elephants, providing a modern

:13:13. > :13:14.Have you heard of the racehorse Eminent?
:13:15. > :13:17.Maybe not, but in Newmarket there's a buzz in the air ahead
:13:18. > :13:21.Because Eminent is the son of Frankel, one of the most
:13:22. > :13:24.successful racehorses of all time. It's now four and a half
:13:25. > :13:26.years since Frankel was retired to stud unbeaten.
:13:27. > :13:28.And this season some of his fillies and colts will compete

:13:41. > :13:49.The first offspring for the unbeaten wonder-horse Frankel.
:13:50. > :13:57.Not a trainer around that wouldn't want to work with a mini-Frankel.
:13:58. > :14:01.It is a real privilege to do this, and knowing that he has got ability.
:14:02. > :14:04.The way that he won his maiden was fantastic and everything he has
:14:05. > :14:06.done for us since has lived up to that.
:14:07. > :14:09.How much pressure is on your shoulders, having
:14:10. > :14:20.Luckily he doesn't know about it too much, so that's all right.
:14:21. > :14:23.That's why he is yawning and he is quite happy, but for me
:14:24. > :14:28.This is a great hope for us to be able to put the yard on the map
:14:29. > :14:31.and hopefully he will live up to everything we expect of him.
:14:32. > :14:34.Frankel is widely regarded as the greatest ever racehorse,
:14:35. > :14:36.unbeaten in 14 outings, a Guineas winner, ending
:14:37. > :14:44.an illustrious career with victory on British Champions Day.
:14:45. > :14:47.Eminent has started his career well with a debut win at Newmarket,
:14:48. > :14:51.suggesting Frankel's foals are growing into
:14:52. > :14:58.We had the first crop of two-year-olds last
:14:59. > :15:01.year and the question was whether they would train on.
:15:02. > :15:10.Often the horses are precocious and they don't travel through,
:15:11. > :15:13.but it's had one or two winners this season already so clearly...
:15:14. > :15:16.And the way you look at the horse, Eminent here looks fantastic.
:15:17. > :15:21.Eminent will race at Newmarket's Craven meeting next week.
:15:22. > :15:24.A traditional trial for his Guineas, where he will hope to follow
:15:25. > :15:31.Frankel demolished the field that they in that famous race that
:15:32. > :15:37.And we're probably going to be blessed with a very strong
:15:38. > :15:41.And Frankel could be represented by at least three colts.
:15:42. > :15:47.Unfortunately, you know, if we just had the only one,
:15:48. > :15:51.but there are a lot of other good ones, so he is obviously proving
:15:52. > :15:54.He's a bright hope, and Eminent wants to prove

:17:50. > :18:04.Did you have any idea what you were taking an? Short answer no. We went
:18:05. > :18:11.to the gym a lot and were well-trained but nothing can prepare
:18:12. > :18:16.you that. How much weight did you lose because presumably food was
:18:17. > :18:23.scarce. We did not have the best diet. Bread and jam most nights. We
:18:24. > :18:31.both lost around eight kilograms. You had to take a detour at one

:25:31. > :25:35.cloud over once more from the north-west and although it will not
:25:36. > :25:42.amount to very much there could be some spots of rain here and there
