@BBCr4today I don’t think Nick was expecting him to be so political! Good to hear the strength of feeling and fury at BiBi from his own citizens, and recognition of the isolation of Israel as a result of his government’s actions. I hope the ceasefire lasts.

Case: A 17.5-year-old Albanian boy presents to A&E with a broken arm… ⚠️This is based on a true case, but all identifiable information has been removed. It is written as if the Illegal Immigration Bill has been passed into law in order to demonstrate its potential impact.

Theresa May on illegal migration bill: I would say this is a slap in the face to those of us who actually care about the victims of modern slavery...it also suggests that those dealing with this bill simply do not understand the nature of these crimes.”
