Afghanistan: US drone strike ‘eliminates airport bomb threat’

Suspended Tory MP Chris Pincher says he hopes to return to constituency duties “as soon as possible”.

Tory MPs will vote against Labour’s demand for a probe that could question witnesses in public.

Boris Johnson calls for the West’s response to Taliban be an “international effort”.

EU countries should discuss forced vaccinations to combat the Omicron variant, says Ursula von der Leyen.
