The former #PrimeMinister wrote letters to six police forces suggesting that civil servants be questioned about Andrew's time as UK trade envoy, between 2001 to 2011, including almost three years when Brown was in No 10.

Labour pointed to an unearthed 2019 Green Party policy which said recreational drugs can "enhance human relationships & human creativity" - #SarahJonesMP said "Polanski would unleash a drugs epidemic across Britain that would see our parks & playgrounds turned into crack dens."

A misconduct panel concluded that ๐ ๐ฟ ๐๐๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฟ probably knew that the language was "๐ฐ๐ง๐ง๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ด๐ช๐ท๐ฆ" to a minority community ..... and ruled it ๐ด๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ ๐บ๐ถ๐๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐.

Last year councils transported an estimated 206,000 children and young people with Send to school โ a record high. That will rise to 311,000 by 2030-31 should current trends continue.
The ๐๐ผ๐๐ป๐๐ ๐๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฐ๐ถ๐น๐ ๐ก๐ฒ๐๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ธ (CCN) said its analysis showed that without significant system reform local authorities would be transporting ๐ญ๐ฌ๐ฌ,๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ additional pupils โ โa cityโs worth of young peopleโ โ to school by the end of the decade!
The demand for Home-to-school transport is rising "๐ข๐ต ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ด๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ช๐ฏ๐ข๐ฃ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐ณ๐ข๐ต๐ฆ" and families who have children with ๐๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ and disabilities (Send) should be means tested for school transport, so say councils in England!

The policy also says the qualifying period could be reduced by factors like; English competency, taxable income, working in public service, volunteering or being the parent of a UK citizen! The changes could be in force by April and it is expected they will apply retroactively!
Over ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฌ,๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ immigrants living legally in the UK are presently on a 10-year route to indefinite leave to remain (ILR). But, under proposals by Labour's #HomeSecretary, #ShabanaMahmood, if they've received benefits, the wait would double to 20 years!
