But new claims have been raised regarding Hester's behaviour after he was reported to have said in 2019 that watching Ms Abbott on television made him "want to hate all black women" and that "he should be shot." After allegations of bigotry were raised, he is accused of gathering 'foreign' workers for another meeting in 2019 before asking if there was "no space for Indians" in the room and suggesting that they could'climb on the roof, as on the roof of the train'.

After defecting to the Conservatives last night, a former Nationalist MP was struck with vehement online nationalist trolls, she told her she was compelled to go into hiding.

When a member of the public requests to use the lavatory for weekly constituency surgeries, Sir David Amess' former aide Julie Cushion (together, left) finds her heart "missing a few beats." Ali Harbi Ali (inset) did just that two years ago before fatally stabbing the much-loved 69-year-old Conservative MP for Southend West. On the terrible October day in 2021, Julie, who worked with Sir David for seven years, was present at Belfairs Methodist Church in Leigh-on-Sea. She is still remembers 'an horrific scream, the paralysing shock, and the 'point at which I was certain he'd gone'. But mostly, she racks her brain trying to figure out if she'should have done something better.'

Following threats and deadly attacks on other politicians, including Sir David Amess and Jo Cox, Mike Freer said he was one of several MPs who wore stab vests at public events. Mr Freer, whose constituency office was set ablaze on Christmas Eve, said such safety precautions were'sadly par for the course these days' and that he had been targeted numerous times. He said that living with the threat of violence or verbal abuse is 'difficult to take in your stride,' but that "the availability of MPs is a fundamental part of our British democratic traditions'. Mr Freer said he could not be sure what caused the suspected arson attack, but that after the Israel-Hamas war, there has been a rise in anti-Semitic events and left families in his constituency concerned about their safety.

Fiona's abyss of loneliness was caused by her partner's break up of a relationship and a work loss last year. 'It was a constant feeling of worry, fear, and dread,' she says, fighting against a sea of alone time.'

Kathleen McGinness (pictured left) 73, was injured in the explosion earlier this month. At 4 a.m. on December 10, the three-story building (pictured right) overlooking St Helier's port collapsed in a fireball. When Ms McGinness exploded, she was living in the building next to the Pier Road. She had been receiving medical attention at the General Hospital in Jersey, where she died on Christmas Day, since the incident. Following the tragedy, her death brings the total loss of life to ten.

A building in St Helier, the Channel Island's capital, was destroyed by the explosion around 4 a.m. on Saturday. Peter Bowler, 72, Raymond 'Raymie' Brown, 71, Romeu and Louise De Almeida, 67 and 64, Derek and Sylvia Ellis, 61 and 73, and 63-year-old Billy Marsden were among the victims identified. Mr Smith said on Sunday that the 'probably' cause of the explosion was a gas leak, but Island Energy's Chief Officer, Jo Cox, said the flats affected were not connected to the gas network. Since it was discovered that officers had been called to the flats at 8.36 p.m. on Friday, only hours before the explosion, an independent inquiry into the island's fire service is ongoing.

The demise of Romeu and Louise de Almeida (67 and 64), Peter Bowler (72, left), Raymond 'Raymie' Brown (71, top center), Derek and Sylvia Ellis (61 and 73, top center), and Billy Marsden (62, top right) were all identified by police, although two others remained anonymous at the request of their families. Five people are reported dead, five are still missing, five are reported dead, and four others are missing, although four others are unaccounted for. The explosion, which occurred in the early hours of Saturday morning, is still under scrutiny, and it comes as Jersey's electricity corporation revealed that safety testing of the entire island's gas supply is still underway.

ROSS CLARK: In recent years, two MPs have been murdered, Labour's Jo Cox and veteran Conservative Sir David Amess. However much you disagree with their beliefs, it should be clear that MPs must be allowed to carry out their legitimate work without being attacked. Only, this dictum does't refer to you if your cause is a Left-wing one and your quarry is former Conservative leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith, nicknamed "Toky Scum," as he screamed at him, his wife, and a friend as they walked through Manchester last year at the party conference. Duncan Smith was struck on the head with a heavy traffic cone; an assault that may have been both terrifying and painful.

In an attempt to reduce the possibility of any more attacks, Parliament has released a call to recruit close protection officers and 'door supervisors'. The estimated cost of the steps over the next five years, as well as VAT, is expected to rise bolstered precautions. MPs' safety has been on the rise for years, with Jo Cox (inset right) killed in her Batley & Spen constituency in 2016 and David Amess (inset left) stabbed to death in Leigh-on-Sea last year.
