Spiking to be made a specific criminal offence

Spiking is to be made a specific criminal offence for the first time, the government revealed on Monday.

The new offence would mean perpetrators "feel the full force of the law", prime minister Sir Keir Starmer said.

It comes as he met with police and hospitality bosses on Monday morning alongside home secretary Yvette Cooper.
