Today's Highlighted Video Story: Neil Basu was in charge of some of Britain's biggest policing operations of the last decade. The most senior serving ethnic minority officer in the country, as head of counter-terrorism he was the man at the very top during the Manchester Arena bombing, the London Bridge attack and the Salisbury poisonings.  Tonight, hours before leaving the Metropolitan Police, he's been speaking exclusively to this programme about battles with his own colleagues on racism, falling out with the government, protecting the royals - and the inside story of the terror plots he foiled, and those he didn't.

Focus of the Day Article: Parents warned Christmas puppy purchases could fund organised crime gang networks. Full story - Scottish Legal News 
 
Today's Highlighted Video Story: In 2020, the Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi, announced one of the harshest Covid lockdowns in the world, causing nearly 200 million migrant labourers to be stranded without wages, food and housing.  Many undertook long journeys to return to their home villages, while others, caught in limbo with their families, were forced to wait, living on the street or under the flyovers they had once laboured to build.  And as workers' rights eroded, the push for unionisation gathered momentum in the country. Filmed in Mumbai, this documentary reveals the deep divide between those who have and those who do not, while questioning the actions of India's leader.

Focus of the Day Article: Personal injury lawyers have been given an extra six months’ reprieve on the implementation of the fixed costs regime for civil litigation. Full story - New Law Journal 
 
Today's Highlighted Video Story: From truck drivers in Chile and South Korea to rail workers and nurses in the UK, a global cost of living crisis is pushing workers to go on strike. Economies, barely recovering from the pandemic, are now facing more hardship. The war in Ukraine, a climate crisis and the price of food and fuel have pushed several countries beyond their ability to cope. The UN says the cost of living crisis is the worst the world has experienced so far in the 21st century. Is this challenge too big for many governments?
