It should be illegal for law enforcement to wear masks and not show ID. This makes it too easy to impersonate law enforcement and murder people in their homes.

...and so Jeremy Hunt is now Sir Jeremy Hunt. My article about working for his dreadful pre-politics publishing company Hotcourses was a popular among NHS employees when he was health secretary; sharing it again for old times' sake.

Your lede ought to make it clearer that the children didn’t ’flee alone’ because their parents wanted it that way: it was because the British government, egged on by the same anti-refugee prejudices that animate the right today, refused to let them in.

(1/3) The documentary filmed inside Thames Water, shows that the company is even more of a mess than we previously thought. It is clear that it's also woefully out of touch with customers' experiences.
