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.

With half the month now behind us, June 2024 is very likely to be the warmest June on record.

The decision on if and when to implement any shake-up will be deferred to the next Senedd term to allow schools to deliver other reforms and improve attainment.
