Quick sense check from other Londoners, please: there’s a huge police facial recognition operation underway at Brixton tube. They say it’s just Brixton today; happening all over London over the months.

Efter år av förberedelser ska Kiruna kyrka flyttas. Under två dagar kommer den historiska byggnaden att färdas från stadens gamla centrum till den nya stadskärnan.
