Ex-Tory MP Lee Anderson defects to Reform: The former Tory Party Vice-Chairman Mr Anderson was suspended after he said Islamists had "control" of Sadiq Khan.

Ex-Tory MP Lee Anderson defects to Reform
Quick Glance: Lee Anderson Defects to Reform Party Despite Prior Support for By-Election Requirement
  • Suspended Tory MP Lee Anderson announced his defection to the Reform party on Monday in a fresh blow to Rishi Sunak’s premiership.

  • During a public address regarding his move to Reform UK, Mr Anderson reaffirmed his previous statements vigorously and opted out of a by-election in his Red Wall constituency.

  • Despite having supported a bill in 2020 that mandated immediate polls for MPs switching parties.

  • Reform achieved significant vote percentages in the recent Kingswood and Wellingborough by-elections, marking their strongest election outcomes to date.

Jeremy Hunt doubles down on ‘£100k a year doesn’t go far’ claim: UK chancellor defends remarks about high salaries after being criticised for being out of touch
theguardian.com/politics/2024/mar/24/jeremy-hunt-doubles-down-on-100k-a-year-doesnt-go-far-claim
Jeremy Hunt doubles down on ‘£100k a year doesn’t go far’ claim
Quick Glance: Jeremy Hunt's View on £100k Income & Financial Realities
  • Jeremy Hunt's perception of £100,000 as a high income contrasts with the national median of £35,000, placing it significantly above average.

  • Even in affluent areas like Godalming and Ash, where Hunt is campaigning, the median income of £56,606 shifts the perspective on six-figure salaries.

  • Hunt's remarks were deemed inappropriate by experts as data shows many households are struggling due to living costs, including those in higher income brackets.

  • New tax and benefit regulations for higher incomes could lead to unexpected financial burdens, as the offer of free childcare for parents earning over £100,000 is limited.

Julian Assange gets temporary reprieve as he fights extradition to US
Quick Glance: Julian Assange: UK Court Delays US Extradition
  • A British court ruled that Julian Assange cannot be extradited to the United States unless U.S. authorities guarantee he won't face the death penalty.

  • Assange will remain in London's Belmarsh Prison as the legal battle continues.

  • Judges emphasized the need for Assange to receive the same protections as a U.S. citizen and to be spared from the death penalty.

  • The U.S. Justice Department declined to comment, while Assange's supporters argue for his rights as a journalist under the First Amendment.
