Illegal mini-marts, barbers and vape shops could be shut for up to a year under new powers announced by the UK government, following lengthy investigative reporting by BBC News into organised crime on British high streets.

The investigations have exposed drug gangs, child sexual exploitation, money laundering and immigration crime linked to shops selling illegal cigarettes, vapes and drugs.

As the law stands in England and Wales, authorities can only close a shop for three months, with an option to extend closure to six months using anti-social behaviour legislation. The government's planned change will double the potential closure time.

Making the announcement, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood praised the BBC's reporting, saying that people felt high streets were being taken over by "organised crime [and] immigration criminality". The government was "not prepared to tolerate it", she said.

► The Government has announced the closure of 13 more asylum hotels amid ongoing pressure around the cost of housing them in hotels, and a record-breaking small boat crossing this week.

The new plan is to move people to unused military sites, including near the village of Piddington in Oxfordshire.

The government wants to house 1,250 people at the Bicester barracks. Piddington residents aren’t happy about it and want to leave the UK, Brexit style.

A police officer who took his own life in May was a violent rapist who carried out a spate of sexual attacks and attempted murders of women over at least 14 years, the BBC can reveal.

PC Alan Greer's first known victim was a woman he raped in her home in Glasgow in 2012 after she had called the police to report being the victim of a crime.

The woman reported the sex attack by Greer late last year, sparking one of Police Scotland's biggest ever anti-corruption inquiries.

Detectives have so far uncovered a further eight victims, five of whom were sex workers, attacked while Greer was off duty.

BREAKING: Reform UK has announced that all foreign-born convicts will be deported, as Nigel Farage and Zia Yusuf outline the party’s plans for dealing with foreign national offenders and the early release of prisoners.

Nigel Farage says the Conservatives and Labour are both culpable for the prisoner early-release scheme, while confirming that, if foreign national offenders refuse to leave, Reform UK would seek to send them to third countries. Farage has also confirmed that Reform UK will travel to El Salvador to explore the possibility of deporting foreign prisoners there, saying: “We will deport foreign criminals to serve their sentences abroad.”

Zia Yusuf vows that, under a Reform UK government, dangerous criminals would serve their sentences in full and foreign nationals would not take up UK prison space. He says the British people are being “tormented by dangerous criminals who should be in jail” and that serious criminals “will never be released early” under a Reform UK government.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly considering a move back to the UK with their two children, Archie and Lilibet, around six years after stepping down as working members of the Royal Family and relocating to the US.

The potential return comes as Harry has continued to highlight his ties to Britain and his concerns over security arrangements for his family. The Duke of Sussex has previously said he wants his children to have a connection with the UK, where he grew up and where much of his family remains.
