Labour: Sue Gray not appointed to 'spill the beans'
Labour's Lucy Powell has defended the appointment of 'partygate' report author Sue Gray as chief of staff to Sir Keir Starmer, denying that the move undermined Ms Gray's impartiality during her inquiry.
The shadow culture secretary said: "She is not coming to work for the Labour Party to spill the beans or anything like that and nor would anybody expect her to do so.
She's coming to help us get ready should we win the next election so we can really change the way in which this country is governed." Report by Buseld.

A Moroccan asylum seeker has been sentenced to life in jail for murder, with a minimum term of 45 years, at Teesside Crown Court. In October last year, 45-year-old Ahmed Alid stabbed Iranian Christian convert Javed Nouri at the house he was sharing with other asylum seekers before looking for more victims in Hartlepool town centre. He then stabbed and killed 70-year-old Terence Carney who was out for his regular early morning walk. Alid told police he had committed his crimes out of “revenge” for Israel killing children in the Palestinian conflict. Report by Jonesia.
