Braverman quits, adds to turmoil for UK PM_我的网站
A | PARIS -- PARIS (AP) — A man armed with a knife killed a teacher and wounded two others on Friday at a high school in northern France, an attack being investigated as potential terrorism.Antiterror prosecutors said they were leading the investigation into the attack at the Gambetta high school in the city of Arras, some 115 miles (185 kilometers) north of Paris.Sliman Hamzi, a police officer who was one of the first on the scene said the suspected attacker, a former student at the school, shouted “Allahu Akbar” — God is great in Arabic.Hamzi said he was alerted by another officer who was passing in front of the high school and called in. He “was shouting ‘someone is attacking with a knife,’” Hamzi saidHamzi said he rushed to the school and saw the victim who died lying on the ground outside the school and the attacker being taken away. “Colleagues arrived quickly but unfortunately couldn’t save the victim,” Hamzi said.Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said that the suspected attacker had been arrested. President Emmanuel Macron was heading to the scene along with the interior and education ministers, and the government asked authorities to heighten vigilance at all schools across France.Such school attacks are rare in France. The motive was not immediately clear. It came amid heightened tensions around the world over Hamas' weekend attack on southern Israel and Israel's military response, which have killed hundreds of civilians on both sides. There have been calls in Muslim nations for mass protests after Friday prayers over Israel’s intense bombing campaign in Gaza. Darmanin on Thursday ordered local authorities to ban all pro-Palestinian demonstrations amid a rise in antisemitic acts since the Hamas attack.France is estimated to have the world’s third-largest Jewish population after Israel and the U.S., and the largest Muslim population in Western Europe.The attack came almost three years after a teacher was beheaded outside a school in suburban Paris. Samuel Paty, a history and geography teacher, was murdered by an 18-year-old of Chechen origin who had become radicalized.A vice president of France's lower house of parliament, Naima Moutchou, said the National Assembly “expresses its solidarity and thoughts for the victims, their families and the educational community as we learn that a teacher has been killed and several others have been injured.″。 London, Oct 20 (UNI) A chaotic day in Parliament has left Prime Minister Liz Truss's survival even more uncertain after the sudden resignation of her Home Secretary and angry scenes during a fracking vote in the Commons.
Opposition MPs alleged some Tories were bullied and manhandled into voting with the government on fracking.
A Minister denied the claim but many Tory MPs ended the day feeling angry and let down by their own party.
Conservative MP Charles Walker said the situation was a "shambles". Visibly furious, he told the BBC there was "no coming back" for the government.
Later he added: "I expect the Prime Minister to resign very soon because she's not up to her job."
Downing Street started on Wednesday believing the Prime Mnister was on a more solid footing after the appointment of Jeremy Hunt as Chancellor -- and his decision to reverse much of Truss's mini-Budget -- appeared to have calmed the markets.
She also survived Prime Minister's Questions -- the weekly question session with MPs -- relatively unscathed.
However, things began to unravel for Truss shortly afterwards.
It seems near impossible that this chaos can be bottled and buried. An implosion feels unavoidable, perhaps imminent, the BBC reported.
The dysfunction is too profound, the outrage among Conservatives too deep-seated for any sense of serenity to be established for as long as Liz Truss is Prime Minister.
Those still supportive of her point out that finding an alternative Prime Minister quickly is difficult and even if this was pulled off, it would be seen as absurd to many around the country.
And so the clamour for a general election would be deafening.
The Prime Minister was forced to hastily cancel a visit to an electronics manufacturer in order to have a meeting with Suella Braverman after her Home Secretary broke government data rules.
The BBC has been told Ms Braverman breached the ministerial code by sending a government document to someone not authorised to receive it.
In her resignation letter, Braverman acknowledged there had been "a technical infringement of the rules". She added: "I have made a mistake; I accept responsibility: I resign."
However, she also took an angry swipe at the government by accusing it of breaking "key pledges" and failing to reduce immigration numbers.
Her departure makes Braverman the shortest-serving Home Secretary since World War II -- and comes less than a week after the resignation of Kwasi Kwarteng as Chancellor.
Grant Shapps -- who Truss had sacked as Transport Secretary six weeks ago -- became the new Home Secretary.
Shortly after Mr Shapps arrived at the Home Office to start his new job, chaotic scenes began to play out in the Commons, where MPs were voting on fracking.
Labour had tabled a vote which, if passed, would give MPs a say on the government's plans to bring back fracking.
Labour MP Chris Bryant claimed some Conservative MPs had been physically manhandled in the voting lobbies to ensure they supported the government.
Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg also said he would not characterise the events as bullying.
Former Brexit minister Lord David Frost - once an ally of Truss - has called on the Prime Minister to go.
He added: "The Truss government messed things up more badly than anyone could have imagined."
