Free legal advice: You don’t have to attend a riot to be prosecuted for conspiracy to riot. You don’t have to be present at a terrorist incident to be guilty of encouraging it. A lot of Twitter warriors will be getting some unpleasant knocks on the door over the coming weeks.

A new code of practice has been launched to curb the number of life-threatening allergic reactions in schools. One mother says it would mean that there is a "homogenised approach to the safeguarding of allergy children in the school setting". 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube
