FBI chief James Comey fired by Trump

Today’s News round up starts with Donald Trump firing FBI chief Comey. The White House shocked Washington by announcing that James Comey “has been terminated and removed from office”. But Democrats said he was fired because the FBI was investigating alleged links between the Trump campaign and Russia. The move came as it emerged Mr Comey gave inaccurate information to Congress last week about Mrs Clinton’s emails.

CPS press no charges over alleged 2015 Tory election over-spending

CPS press no charges over alleged 2015 Tory election over-spending, with CPS reportedly to announce the result of an investigation into allegations of election spending fraud. The Crown Prosecution Service said it had examined files from 14 police forces and while there was evidence of inaccurate spending returns it did not “meet the test” for further action. It is still investigating the Conservative campaign in South Thanet.

The Conservatives said the allegations had been “politically motivated” and a “waste of police time”. The inquiry related to claims some “battle bus” campaigning costs in the 2015 election were wrongly recorded.
