Sadiq Khan on theatre and travel

Mayor of London Sadiq Khan criticises the government for failing to publish the results of its large event pilot programme before theatre leaders brought a course case against them and for failing to keep the travel sector open because, he says, they didn’t secure the country’s borders soon enough.

He adds that images of Health Secretary Matt Hancock allegedly carrying out an affair with an aide “raises concerns” after attending a vaccination summit with Vaccines Minister Nadhim Zahawi.

A secret audio recording obtained by ITV News has revealed Post Office boss Paula Vennells was told directly about problems with the Horizon system and warned not to cover them up. In a meeting with independent investigators from Second Sight on July 2, 2013, Ms Vennells was made aware of allegations that sub-postmaster branch accounts could be accessed remotely. This is something the Post Office had denied for years.
