British MP’s will be offered security guards for public appearances following the stabbing death of Conservative politician Sir David Amess.

Home Secretary Priti Patel and Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle made the offer in a joint letter to MPs after the level of threat was raised from “moderate” to “substantial”.

The pair stated terrorists attacks on MPs were perceived to be “likely” but there was no intelligence pointing to a “credible specific or imminent threat”.

MPs plural is MPs. Belonging to all MPs is MPs' e.g All MPs' security One MP's security.

Appropriate and long overdue in many ways.

Facebook whistleblower tells politicians to 'team up' with US to regulate social media, or be ignoredA former Facebook data scientist who leaked damaging company documents suggesting harmful and deceptive conduct by the social media giant tells MPs the company cannot be trusted to regulate itself. Whistleblower who's info supports govt's desire to control information is celebrated by the media. Meanwhile, whistleblowers who shine a light on govt criminality, languish in prison or in fear of govt retribution and the media say nothing. Fake whistleblower an excuse for more censorship. Totally fake event. How about just following the LAW ?
