This raises clear concerns about foreign interference in UK policing.

Due to the layoffs I am afraid that we have had to take over the running of the US National Parks.
We are updating the park regulations but for now the most important thing people can do before visiting a national park is to marinade themselves for 12 hours in olive oil, lime juice & garlic.
