In 2023/24, 14.3 percent of all stop and searches performed by the police in England and Wales resulted in an arrest, compared with 13.6 percent in the previous year. During this time period, the arrest rate for stop and searches was highest in 2017/18, when 17.2 percent of stop and searches resulted in an arrest.

When speaking a foreign language, non-native speakers can typically be readily identified by their accents. But which aspects of the speech signal determine such accents? Speech pauses occur in all languages but may nonetheless vary in different languages with regard to their duration, number or positions in the speech stream, and therefore are one potential contributor to foreign speech production. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate whether non-native speakers pause ‘with a foreign accent’. We recorded native English speakers and non-native speakers of German or Serbo-Croatian with excellent English reading out an English text at three different speech rates, and analyzed their vocal output in terms of number, duration and location of pauses. Overall, all non-native speakers were identified by native raters as having non-native accents, but native and non-native speakers made pauses that were similarly long, and had similar ratios of pause time compared to total speaking time. Furthermore, all speakers changed their pausing behavior similarly at different speech rates. The only clear difference between native and non-native speakers was that the latter made more pauses than the native speakers. Thus, overall, pause patterns contributed little to the acoustic characteristics of speakers’ non-native accents, when reading aloud. Non-native pause patterns might be acquired more easily than other aspects of pronunciation because pauses are perceptually salient and producing pauses is easy. Alternatively, general cognitive processing mechanisms such as attention, planning or memory may constrain pausing behavior, allowing speakers to transfer their native pause patterns to a second language without significant deviation. We conclude that pauses make a relatively minor contribution to the acoustic characteristics of non-native accents.

In 2023/24 the stop and search rate for Black people in England and Wales was 22.4 searches per 1,000 people, compared with the stop and search rate for white people of six per one thousand people. People in the categories of 'other', mixed and Asian ethnic backgrounds also had a higher stop and search rate than that of the white population.

It is common practice to measure the drying rate of individual vials by a gravimetric method in which the primary drying cycle of a batch of pre-weighed vials is interrupted after approximately 25% of ice has sublimed. The vials are re-weighed and an average drying rate determined from the loss of mass, divided by the time period from the point at which sublimation starts to the point of interruption. A number of issues are explored in this Figshare document which question the validity of the drying rate so determined, and in particular the fact that the method at best provides and average drying rate but over what period of time, it is difficult to judge.
