It’s not like there’s no room for them, or it wouldn’t suit the design, as Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have them.I've always assumed the complexity of the idents was the reason. There is still a VO identifier for each region announcing the presenters of the national and regional news. I think that's sufficient.
Someone obviously decided they were no longer necessary, or at least not worth the effort and cost of producing an extra twelve versions of each ident. And with the various objects moving in front of the logo and text, it wouldn’t be something that could easily be added later by someone in presentation without access to the master templates from the design agency.
