Sir Keir Starmer is warned he is 'not reading the room' after unveiling new police crackdown to treat 'far right thugs' like football hooligans following chaotic riots on Britain's streets

Sir Keir Starmer has been warned he is 'not reading the room' after unveiling new police crackdown to treat 'far right thugs' like football hooligans in the wake of violence on Britain's streets following the Southport knife attack. Reform MP Lee Anderson suggested that the Prime Minister had failed to understand public anger over the killings. Speaking at a Downing Street press conference, the Prime Minister condemned the 'mindless minority' who have delivered nights of chaos since Monday's tragedy. He hit out at a 'gang of thugs' who travelled by train and buses to Southport and attacked police. There has also been mayhem in London, Hartlepool and Manchester leading to scores of arrests.

Daughter raped by her own father wins £15,000 payout from police after officers initially dissuaded her from reporting him by telling her she would look like 'the biggest slag going'

A woman raped by her father has won a payout and an apology from the police after officers told her she would look like 'the biggest slag going' if she reported him. Carol Higgins (left), 55, finally ended a 39-year battle for justice after she was sexually abused by her father, Elliot Appleyard (right), now 76, when she was 13 years old. He took her to a tattoo parlour to get his nickname tattooed on her shoulder - and put an engagement ring on her finger, telling her they'd 'live happily ever after'. The mother-of-two first reported Appleyard to the police in 1985 - and four more separate occasions stretching from 1984 to 2015. But it wasn't until 2019 that he was jailed for 20 years for his crimes. Ms Higgins says in 1985 she was told by police it would 'blacken her name' if she pursued a prosecution and would be considered 'the biggest slag going'.

BBC faces 'more commercialisation' as row over plans to run adverts on its podcasts continues - just weeks after latest licence fee hike

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 28, 2024
The commercial arm of the corporation is looking to generate sales in the UK by introducing ads to their podcasts on third-party websites such as Apple and Spotify . And earlier this month a coalition of more than 20 media companies fiercely criticised the corporation's proposals to monetise its podcasts - saying the move risks having a 'significant adverse impact on fair and effective competition'. Now the Head of Content for Salford-based creative audio company Audio Always has warned that it could be rolled out 'over the next couple of years'.
