Lord Charles Brocket, who is known for his appearance on 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!', has pleaded not guilty to multiple charges including two counts of rape and two counts of sexual assault.

We think it failed properly to recognise the nature and scope of the positive obligations imposed by Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights to protect the rights of trans and intersex people, and to avoid relegating them to 'an intermediate zone as not quite one gender or the other'.

The verdict of a jury in Los Angeles, that Google and Meta intentionally built addictive social media platforms is being seen as a landmark, as societies around the world decide how, or whether, to regulate social media further and consider banning children from using it.

We acknowledge that the measure may have a serious impact on the group one claimants if they are unable to afford private education which accords with their religious convictions, but it is important to bear in mind that they have the option of home schooling if free education in the state sector is not acceptable to them.

There was clearly someone on the mobile phone talking to Jakstys. He then removed his mobile phone from his inner jacket pocket. In my judgement, from what occurred in court, it is clear that call was made, connected to his smart glasses, and continued during his evidence until his mobile phone was removed from him.

I was misidentified by a live facial recognition system while coming home from a community patrol in Croydon. Police officers told me I was a wanted man and demanded my fingerprints even though I'd done nothing wrong. What happened to me was shocking and unfair.

Spiralling backlogs mean a shocking 29 cases including violent crimes and drug offences have been scheduled to start as far away as 2030, with victims left waiting at least four years to have their day in court. In total, more than 2,600 Crown Court trials are not due to be heard until 2028, including 206 rape trials.

The decision means that lawyers can be subject to counter-terrorism powers and have their privileged communications extracted and examined by the state, without having the right to know the case against them, said advocacy group Cage. Fahad Ansari, who acts for Hamas in a legal appeal to have its proscribed status in the UK overturned, was stopped by police under Schedule 7 of the terrorist act while returning from holiday with his family last year.

Up to 65 Labour MPs are believed to be ready to rebel against the justice secretary's plans ahead of the first vote on the controversial bill on Tuesday. MP Karl Turner, a former Starmer loyalist, is leading the calls for a rethink.

Safe Passage International, a charity working with unaccompanied children and refugees, has been granted permission to launch a judicial review of the decision to halt refugee family reunion after it claimed the suspension was unlawful. Mr Justice Fordham accepted that the suspension should be open to a legal challenge after the court heard that the decision breaches the Home Office's duty to have regard to the need to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.

A High Court judge has ruled that thousands of people affected by a major data breach at Capita can continue with their legal action against the outsourcing group, in a decision being described as a landmark for large-scale data privacy claims in the UK. In a judgment handed down on 9 February, Master Dagnall rejected arguments from Capita's legal team that solicitors acting for more than 8,000 claimants had abused the court process.

The sponsoring partner must meet a minimum income requirement set by immigration rules. That figure is fixed. If income falls short, even slightly, the application can be refused. The difficulty is often not the amount itself, but how it must be shown. Payslips must cover a defined period. Bank statements must match those payslips. Employer letters must confirm details in specific terms.

Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The open-ended sentences, which were scrapped in 2012 and have been described as psychological torture by the UN, have left thousands trapped in jail for up to 22 times longer than their original tariff. This includes many who were children at the time of their offence and handed a type of IPP sentence for under-18s called a Detention for Public Protection (DPP) jail term.

Mr Justice Chamberlain said on Tuesday that the Met's decision "serves a legitimate aim, maintaining and enhancing public trust in policing, and is proportionate". The Met announced in December that membership of the Freemasons or similar organisations would be added to its declarable associations policy. This means officers and staff were required to declare membership "past or present" of any organisation that is "hierarchical, has confidential membership and requires members to support and protect each other".

It seems to me that the nature of the exercise which is required in vetting is different from the exercise in disciplinary proceedings. In disciplinary proceedings, in common with many situations in which a decision-maker has to decide whether an event occurred in the past, the balance of probabilities is a sensible way to decide that question of fact. Either an event happened or it did not.

substantive claim to judicial review alleges procedural unfairness in the processes of ICGS, as well as perversity and illegality
