Carole Malone has expressed concern that the release of Prince Harry's US visa documents may frustrate individuals who have been denied entry for similar drug-related issues. This follows a legal battle by the Heritage Foundation to disclose how Harry was granted entry despite admitting past drug use in his memoir.

GB News: Seven in 10 cyclists in Britain have had their bicycles stolen as total cost of thefts stands at staggering £2.4bn
A new study reveals that 70% of cyclists in the UK have experienced bike theft, amounting to a staggering £2.4 billion in losses. Major cities like Bristol and Newcastle report the highest rates, with thefts mostly occurring in public spaces.
The impact extends beyond financial loss, as many cyclists cycle less frequently or stop altogether after theft. E-bikes, now nearly 10% of bike sales, are considered more vulnerable to theft. Calls for improved bike security and government action are growing.
GB News: Thousands sign petition calling for 'money-making' 20mph speed limits to be scrapped across UK
A petition initiated by Shane Tomlinson has gained over 8,000 signatures, urging the UK Government to halt the rollout of 20mph speed limits, which many believe lack sufficient consideration for road users. Critics argue the policy resembles a revenue-generating scheme through fines rather than a genuine safety measure.
This movement mirrors a similar petition in Wales, which garnered nearly 470,000 signatures and played a role in overturning the 20mph law there. The call for a more evidence-based approach to speed limits reflects widespread discontent with the current policy, prompting discussions about local authority control over speed regulations.

GB News: Police cells to be used to hold prisoners as Labour triggers 'emergency measure' in bid to tackle jail overcrowding
Labour has announced the activation of "Operation Safeguard" to address prison overcrowding in England and Wales, with police cells being repurposed for inmates. This measure comes as the inmate population has surged to over 87,500, the highest since September 2024.
The Ministry of Justice plans to open a new 1,500-capacity jail soon but acknowledges that current strategies have not effectively alleviated the overcrowding crisis. Experts warn that without significant reforms in sentencing and probation, the system may face total gridlock by 2026.
Breitbart: Study: Concealed Carriers Stop More Active Shooters Than Police Do
Data from the Crime Prevention Research Center indicates that armed civilians are more effective at stopping mass shootings than police. From 2014 to 2023, civilians halted 180 of 515 active shooter incidents, with a lower rate of errors compared to law enforcement.
The research highlights that police face greater risks, being nearly six times more likely to be killed and 17% more likely to be wounded than armed civilians. These findings suggest that responsible gun owners play a crucial role in crisis situations.

GB News: Key airport update will let Britons skip queues when returning to the UK - how it works
British holidaymakers will soon use facial recognition technology to bypass passport queues upon returning to the UK. High-powered cameras will scan faces through car windshields, with similar systems being developed for airports. Only flagged individuals will undergo manual checks.
This initiative aims to streamline border crossings at maritime, rail, and eventually air routes, reducing wait times during busy travel periods. The technology is currently in trial at four ports and will operate alongside the EU's Entry/Exit system, set to launch in October 2025.
