A British doctor who travelled to help injured civilians has died in a Syrian jail. Plus, former Tory peer on allegations of 'clocking in' to claim expenses.
Dr Abbas Khan travelled to Syria last year to help civilians in a field hospital. This morning his family told the 麻豆社 he'd died in a government jail - we get reaction. The former Conservative peer Lord Hanningfield, who was jailed after fiddling his expenses in 2011, defends himself over allegations that he claimed 拢300 a day for attending the House of Lords, despite apparently staying inside Parliament for less than 40 minutes on 11 occasions. And the options for expanding the country's airport capacity are outlined by Sir Howard Davies, we hear what the politicians and voters make of them.
