Robin Swann has questioned whether the Labour government’s approach to the Troubles can be squared with the terms of the Good Friday Agreement.

The government is in the process of defending its Northern Ireland Troubles Bill in the House of Commons, with MPs sceptical of the bill peppering the Northern Ireland Secretary with questions.

Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper told the Commons that ‘stability in the West Bank is essential to any sustainable peace’ in the Middle East.

Speaking at the Girls’ School Association Conference, the minister for violence against women and girls said teachers should ‘whinge more’.
