Sir Sadiq Khan has launched a public consultation on his controversial plans to pedestrianise Oxford Street. The Mayor of London announced the proposal to pedestrianise a 0.7-mile stretch of the popular shopping district in September and has said the plans would “unlock the true potential” of the famous street which had “suffered in recent years”.

Yvette Cooper says the rules around illegal immigration and people-smuggling haven't been respected "for far too long".

The home secretary says "new and serious patterns" have emerged in illegal migration, causing "major challenges" for national security. Yvette Cooper adds that smuggling gangs are using drones "to spot where the border patrols are". But she adds that it is "governments, not gangs" that should decide who enters the country.
