Scotland’s prison service has abandoned Nicola Sturgeon’s self-identification policy for new prisoners, announcing that it would base decisions on where to send them entirely on their biological sex. In a major climbdown following the scandal of a transgender rapist being placed in a female jail, the Scottish Prison Service (SPS) said it would disregard a prisoner’s gender identity when making initial decisions about whether to send them to a male or female jail. The shift, affecting newly convicted or remanded trans offenders, marks a major reversal of previous prison service policy in Scotland, which was heavily influenced by trans activists.

Jürgen Klopp has called for a “reaction” from Liverpool when they face Everton on Monday night to reignite their season. Klopp’s side have picked up one point in their past four Premier League games, leaving them 10th. After last Saturday’s 3-0 loss at Wolves, Klopp spoke to the squad on Sunday to discuss their form. The visit of Sean Dyche’s Everton offers the perfect opportunity to bounce back. “After the game we played against Wolves, we have to show a reaction again,” Klopp said. “I know our people want to see that – we have to show that. This is not…

The UK avoided entering a recession at the end of last year by the narrowest of margins, official figures have revealed, after economic growth flatlined in the final three months of 2022. A decline in gross domestic product (GDP) of 0.5% in December was offset by increases in the two previous months to leave the economy performing at roughly the same level as the previous quarter. Negative growth in the fourth quarter would have signalled recession, after the UK economy shrank by 0.2% in the third quarter – a figure revised up from the initial -0.3% estimate. A technical recession is generally…

Dominic Raab has said he “behaved professionally at all times” as a minister, despite facing criticism of his behaviour from dozens of officials.

Raab has remained relatively quiet since the prime minister, Rishi Sunak, ordered an investigation into eight complaints made about him by civil servants in three departments. Staff report being given extremely difficult demands on unreasonable deadlines, with a group complaint alleging that some officials had to be signed off work for extended periods of…

TURKEY & SYRIA TREMORS AFTERMATH – Rescuers in Turkey quake pull out survivors alive after 72 hours Search and rescue operations in quake-hit Turkish cities continued overnight and in the early hours on Thursday 72 hours after the disaster.

The UK telecoms regulator has launched an investigation into the industry-wide practice of hitting broadband and mobile customers with inflation-busting price rises of up to 17% and could bring in tougher protections against hefty mid-contract increases. Ofcom, which in December launched a separate investigation into the sales tactics used by telecoms companies, said it could intervene to ensure consumers struggling with the cost of living crisis have “greater clarity and certainty” over how much they are likely to pay over the course of their contract. The UK’s biggest companies in the sector – including BT, EE, Vodafone, Virgin Media O2 and TalkTalk…

Erik ten Hag criticised his players for failing to be ready for the fight and lacking responsibility but praised the “brilliant” Jadon Sancho whose equaliser against Leeds sealed Manchester United’s comeback at Old Trafford on Wednesday. Leeds, led by caretaker Michael Skubala, scored inside the first minute of the opening half and the third of the second before Marcus Rashford and Sancho ensured the points were shared. Ten Hag said: “When you start a derby like we did it’s unacceptable. You have to be ready to fight and we weren’t ready for the battle. It looked like it [his players were…
