Th e funeral, the culmination of a week of mourning, took place at St Mary ’ s of the Angle on Morehouse Road. Th e congregation and many more, who could not fi t into the packed church, processed through Notting Hill to the West London Crematorium. Th e size and diversity of the crowd was a testament to the breadth of respect that Crichlow commanded. Th e mourners included the biggest names from Britain ’ s Black Power Movement including Howe, Althea Jones-Lecointe and her husband Eddie who had fl own in from Trinidad for the occasion, as well as Rhodan Gordon. Th ere were also more mainstream black activists and politicians such as Lee Jasper and Paul Boateng; the fi lm maker Horace Ové and hundreds of ordinary people, not political in any obvious sense, whose lives Crichlow had touched. Boateng gave the eulogy, recalling Crichlow ’ s activism, his smile, and his ‘ grace under pressure, and boy was there pressure ’ (Boateng 2010).

Editorial Complaints to the BBC, July to September 2005
Editorial Complaints to the BBC - July to September 2005 The BBC handled over 35,000 editorial complaints between July and September 2005 (down from 49,000 in the previous quarter). These ranged from a small number of complaints about potentially serious breaches of editorial guidelines through to a much larger collection of views about programme content and scheduling. The key themes which emerged are detailed below: Coverage of the London Bombings: Four issues in particular prompted complaints from the audience (detailed BBC responses to all these were published on the BBC Complaints and BBC Newswatch websites). Some viewers considered that the Panorama Special: A Question of Leadership portrayed Muslims and the Islamic faith in a negative light. Others complained about Gavin Esler’s questioning of George Galloway on Newsnight (14 July). There were also complaints that footage of attempts to resuscitate a man was broadcast during The BBC News 24 Special about the London bombings (the BBC apologised and ensured the footage was not included again). The use or non-use of the word ‘terrorist’ to describe the bombers also caused controversy. Other News Issues: Complaints were received from residents in the USA about alleged anti-Israel bias. Scheduling: A number of viewers complained that the Moto GP was not extended in the BBC North regions on 31 July to show the full race (the BBC apologised and published this on the Complaints website). Some viewers were annoyed that the Super League Show was dropped from schedule on 3 July due to Wimbledon overrunning. Others objected to schedule changes made to Silent Witness and Holby City to accommodate coverage of Match of the Day Live (Manchester United v Debrecen) on 9 August.

Your Guide to Eu Elections
YOUR GUIDE TO EU ELECTIONS PB 1 How do the European elections work? Owing to the failure of the UK and the EU to reach a Brexit deal, the UK has been granted an extension to the Article 50 process for leaving the EU until 31 October 2019. This means, as David Lidington confirmed on 7 May, that because no agreement has yet been reached, European elections will be held on 23 May 2019. Vuelio’s Guide explains how these will work. Where will MEPs be elected? The UK is divided into twelve European parliamentary constituencies, each of which elects a certain number of Members of the European Parliament (MEPs). These are as follows: y East Midlands – 5 MEPs y East of England – 7 MEPs y London – 8 MEPs y North East – 3 MEPs y North West – 8 MEPs y Northern Ireland – 3 MEPs y Scotland – 6 MEPs y South East – 10 MEPs y South West – 6 MEPs (this region includes Gibraltar) y Wales – 4 MEPs y West Midlands – 7 MEPs y Yorkshire & the Humber – 6 MEPs How are MEPs elected? All UK citizens, as well as Commonwealth citizens living in the UK, are entitled to vote. EU citizens living in the UK can choose between voting here or in the country they are a citizen of. All but one constituency is elected using the ‘D’Hondt’ method, a type of proportional representation. Each party puts forward a list of candidates ranked with their preferred candidate at the top and the remaining candidates in descending order. Therefore, electors can only vote for the party and not for individual candidates.
