TL Bureau & Sources, London
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and resistance Labor Party pioneer Keir Starmer visited the congregation Saturday where official David Amess was lethally cut while meeting with constituents, hours after his killing was pronounced a fear monger occurrence. The homicide has stunned the country and provoked requires a survey of safety efforts for legislators completing body electorate work. Amess, 69 and an individual from Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s decision Conservative Party, passed on in the wake of being cut a few times at around noontime Friday at Belfairs Methodist Church in Leigh-on-Sea, England. A 25-year-elderly person was
captured on doubt of homicide and a blade was recuperated, police said. He is accepted to have acted alone. “The early examination has uncovered a potential inspiration connected to Islamist radicalism,” the Metropolitan Police said in an assertion short-term. Two locations in the London region are being looked, the power said. The man captured is accepted to be
a British public with Somali legacy, official sources have told UK news office PA Media. The UK’s Counter Terrorism Command is driving the examination concerning the killing, police said Friday.

of individuals” and enthusiastic backer for individuals he addressed. “He was killed doing a task that he cherished, serving his own constituents as a chosen popularity based part,” she said. “Also, obviously, demonstrations of this (sort) are totally off-base and we can’t allow that to hinder our working majority rules system.” Patel said she had been in conversations with the Commons speaker, police and security administrations to “ensure measures are being set up for the security of MPs, so they can continue with their obligations as chosen popularity based individuals.” MPs in Britain normally meet with occupants in their electorates eye to eye during “medical procedures,” and it is unprecedented for them to have a security detail.
Myanmar Head Aung Hlaing excluded from ASEAN leaders summit
TL Bureau, Jakarta
The military general who held onto power in Myanmar in February has been prohibited from a yearly culmination of provincial pioneers in the not so distant future. The Association of South East Asian Nations (Asean) consented to welcome a non-political delegate from Myanmar rather than Gen Min Aung Hlaing. It is an extraordinary move for the 10-part coalition, which customarily tries not to meddle in its individuals’ undertakings. Asean said the military had not done what’s needed to end the strife in Myanmar. In August, Gen Min Aung Hlaing named himself leader and said the nation’s highly sensitive situation would be stretched out as battling between the military and volunteer army powers went against to the tactical
upset proceeded. Asean said in an explanation that a crisis meeting of its unfamiliar clergymen on Friday couldn’t arrive at an agreement on whether the military ought to address Myanmar at the highest point held between 26-28 October. The gathering said Myanmar’s tactical chiefs had would not satisfy guarantees of discourse and de-heightening and said its agent had been prohibited from meeting the dismissed and detained non military personnel pioneer, Aung San Suu Kyi. The assertion - gave by Brunei, which is facilitating the culmination - said the circumstance in Myanmar “was affecting territorial security just as the solidarity, believability and centrality of Asean”. In April, Asean encouraged Gen Min Aung Hlaing to end the rough crackdown in the nation and to deliver political detainees.
The BBC’s Jonathan Head in Bangkok says the choice to prohibit the general from the culmination, which will likewise be gone to by US President Joe Biden and other world pioneers, is a critical hit to the tactical government’s expectations of inevitable worldwide acknowledgment. There have been no signs yet, our reporter adds, that the military will lessen the utilization of savagery against the resistance and to begin haggling with them. Asean didn’t name the Myanmar agent it was welcoming to partake in the highest point. Shows spread across Myanmar following the February overthrow. Security powers reacted with a merciless crackdown, killing in excess of 1,000 individuals and confining more than 6,000, as per the Assistance Association for Political Prisoners.
2 While the Atlantic storm season doesn’t formally end until Nov. 30, AccuWeather forecasters accept that the chances of any extra typhoon development soon are low. After an excited speed around the pinnacle of typhoon season, there is only one name left on the 2021 rundown of tempest names: Wanda. Might that name go unused? The 2021 Atlantic typhoon season got off to a record-quick beginning, with five tempests shaping by July 1, outperforming a record set simply a year prior. The season proceeded at a high speed, with advancement starting off again in mid-August and proceeding through midSeptember. Before the finish of the time of quick movement, eight tempests had made landfall in the United States. Be that as it may, presently, the jungles sit torpid. “We’re going into a circumstance where there are less tropical components falling off Africa, which before October for the most part are the provocateurs in the advancement of typhoons and storms,” AccuWeather Hurricane Expert Dan Kottlowski said. Tropical waves that arise off the shoreline of Africa are typically the wellspring of typhoon improvement during the pinnacle of storm season. As per Kottlowski, 85 of all hurricane improvement can follow its starting points to tropical waves. Typhoon Ida, the most grounded tempest to make landfall in the United States this year, was brought into the world from a tropical wave that started to coordinate in the southern Caribbean Sea, simply off the shore of South America. Ida quickly heightened prior to making landfall in Louisiana. Even in the wake of losing wind force, the tempest proceeded to annihilate portions of the Northeast as a tropical rainstorm. Tropical storm Henri, which shaped off the Northeast coast, had its strange beginning in a complex of rainstorms that followed across the United States almost fourteen days before its landfall in Rhode Island. Be that as it may, around October, the quantity of tropical waves typically diminishes, with storms having a tendency to begin in the Caribbean Sea. Static Tropical Breeding Areas
Hurricane still not over eleven after disaster in United States
Mid-October to November Typhoon Nicholas, which shaped for the current year in September, had its starting point in a manner more normal of October tropical turn of events, framing in the Bay of Campeche prior to making landfall in Texas as a Category 1 storm. Notwithstanding, wind shear over the Caribbean Sea is incredibly discouraging the shot at any further tropical advancement this year. “At the point when you have solid breezes, what we call wind shear, those solid breezes will debilitate tropical frameworks, and that is the reason it’s been so peaceful since Sept. 15, since we’ve had a huge measure of wind shear in the Atlantic bowl,” said AccuWeather boss transmission meteorologist Bernie Rayno. Vertical breeze shear, the most effective with regards to tropical frameworks, is the shift in course and speed of winds at expanding statures in the climate. At the point when solid vertical breeze shear is available, the highest point of a typhoon or storm can be blown many miles downstream. For this situation, the tempest can turn out to be extremely unbalanced or shifted and start to loosen up as dry air advances into the framework or the progression of warm, wet air into the whole tempest is disturbed. Solid breeze shear can keep a tempest from framing in any case. “We are going into a La Niña,” Kottlowski said, alluding to the climatological wonder in which ocean surface temperatures in the tropical Pacific Ocean dip under average and can have sweeping impacts on climate somewhere else on the planet.
“Furthermore, ordinarily when you go into a La Niña, that favors keeping the upward wind shear toward the north, and that is not happening presently, the upward wind shear has been profound into the jungles throughout the most recent a few days, and that is the explanation we truly have not seen genuinely hearty examples to set out the freedom for tropical turn of events,” he added. NOAA on Thursday declared that the La Niña stage had authoritatively evolved and that meteorologists anticipate that it should stay into spring of the following year. Typhoon Henri battled wind shear all through a lot of its lifetime, causing the tempest to seem disproportionate on Satellite. At the time this picture was taken on Aug. 20, Henri was around 400 miles southeast of Charleston, S.C., and was advancing toward the northwest with supported breezes estimated 65 mph. Wind shear can be apparent to

sharp eyewitnesses on satellite symbolism. In the event that a functioning tropical framework looks disproportionate, with the mists on only one side of the framework, that is probable because of high measures of wind shear. In lieu of a tropical framework, wind shear can be noticeable on water fume satellite circles, which show the development of water fume in the upper environment, and along these lines can demonstrate high breezes present. Be that as it may, as Kottlowski referenced, the climate design over the Atlantic bowl is being affected by a La Niña stage, which generally will in general move vertical breeze shear toward the north and out of the Caribbean. La Niña, which means “young lady” in Spanish, is one period of a three-pronged regular environment design that happens across a huge piece of the tropical Pacific Ocean known as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation. ENSO’s three stages are separated into La Niña’s cool stage, which enhances the northern fly stream and debilitates the southern fly stream, known as the subtropical fly stream, having downstream effects in the United States. In the event that the La Niña assists with causing conditions to turn out to be more ideal, the Atlantic bowl could possibly produce a couple more tempests before the season closes, or even after the season authoritatively finishes on Nov. 30. Tempests can form well into November and have even framed as late as January,

AFP seizes 450 kilograms of heroin in largest ever onshore detection
TL Bureau, Melbourne
Australian authorities have seized the largest heroin shipment ever detected in Australia after intercepting 450kg of the illicit drug inside a container of tiles sent from Malaysia to Melbourne. A Malaysian National has been arrested following the joint AFP and Australian Border Force operation. The man was charged on Thursday (14 October 2021). He was charged with: Import a commercial quantity of a border controlled drugs, namely 451kg of heroin; and attempted possession of a commercial quantity of a border controlled drug. The maximum penalty is life imprisonment. He faced the Melbourne Magistrates Court yesterday (15 October 2021). He was remanded in custody and is due to next appear in court in January 2022. The heroin, which has an estimated street value of $140 million, was detected in a sea freight container of ceramic tiles addressed to a Melbourne business. The shipment arrived at the Port of Melbourne on 29 September 2021, where ABF officers examined the container and located packages with distinctive red heroin branding. Testing on the substance within
those packages returned a presumptive result for heroin. AFP investigators assessed a total of 1290 packages containing heroin within the shipment. The total estimated weight of 451kg, which is about the same weight as a grand piano, made it the largest onshore detection of heroin in Australia. The heroin was removed from the shipment and the consignment delivered to an industrial precinct near Melbourne’s Tullamarine Airport on Thursday, 7 October. On 15 October AFP investigators executed a number of search warrants on business and residential premises.
Top businesswoman to lead Australia’s national science agency
TL Bureau, Canberra
One of Australia’s most experienced company directors, professional engineer Kathryn Fagg AO, has been appointed Chair of Australia’s national science agency, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). Science and Technology Minister Melissa Price said Ms Fagg’s promotion from Deputy Chair to Chair would significantly bolster the board of the CSIRO. It will mark the first time that three of Australia’s leading science agencies – the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS), the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) and the CSIRO – have simultaneously been chaired by women. Ms Fagg replaces the departing Chair, David Thodey AO, and has been appointed for a five-year term following the end of Mr Thodey’s term on 14 October 2021. Ms Fagg has worked in senior executive roles across a range of industries in Australia, New Zealand and Asia. She was a member of the board of the Reserve Bank of Australia
from 2013 to 2018. Current board member David Knox will take over Ms Fagg’s role as Deputy for a four-year term. The Hon Ian Macfarlane has been appointed as a new Board member for a three-year term. Mr Macfarlane is a former Minister for Industry and Science. Announcing the appointments today, Minister Price thanked Mr Thodey for his leadership and said Ms Fagg was well credentialed to assume the role of Chair. “Kathryn Fagg brings stability and maintains a strong direction for the CSIRO as the agency continues to play a pivotal role in our COVID-19 recovery and as we embrace science and technology to help chart our future prosperity,” Minister Price said. “As a passionate advocate for gender equity, Ms Fagg is a women in STEM champion and a mentor for young women seeking to pursue a career in science, technology, engineering or mathematics. “Like me, the new Chair and the other board members are committed to ensuring we use science – and the incredible work of our scientists – to help improve the lives of all Australians.
Stopping these drugs from reaching our communities has saved lives and reduced drug-associated personal and property crime, loss of productivity, and health care costs. The AFP works closely with its international partners in the fight against drug trafficking. AFP Acting Assistant Commissioner Southern Command, Krissy Barrett said the AFP has strong and enduring relationships with its international partners in the fight against drug trafficking. “We have a strong relationship with the Royal Malaysia Police (RMP) and in particular the RMP Narcotics Criminal Investigation
Department,” she said. “We continue to work together in identifying and disrupting transnational organised crime syndicates that seek to harm both our nations and generate millions of dollars of profits from criminal activity. Acting Assistant Commissioner Barrett said that sadly there was one death in the Australian community for approximately every two kilograms of heroin consumed*. “It is important to note that in addition to the arrests made, the primary outcome of this operation is the preservation of an estimated 225 lives” she said. “It is common for drug traffickers to add other substances to heroin to increase the volume and, therefore make bigger profits. “This involves manufacturing heroin with industrial, toxic chemicals that remain in the end product.“Anything from paracetamol to poisons can be added so you will never know what you are ingesting, or how your body will react. Unfortunately for many users, their bodies shut down and they die.” ABF Commander Chris Holzeimer said that despite pandemic-related border disruptions, the ABF continued to effectively disrupt
attempts by criminal syndicates to bring narcotics into Australia. “The ABF remains alert to all attempts to illegally import dangerous narcotics into the country. Syndicates might vary their concealment efforts, but our officers have the technical expertise to defeat them,” Commander Holzeimer said. “Today’s outcome highlights that when we work together with our law enforcement partners, we can achieve our mission of protecting the Australian community. Our simple message is do not smuggle narcotics into Australia: we will detect and disrupt your attempt, and you will face severe legal consequences.” *The figure of one death per approximately 2kg of heroin consumed has been calculated by using the heroin-induced death rate from the latest Australian Institute of Health and Welfare report (1.9 deaths per 100,000), the ABS population statistics (Australia’s population of 25,704,340) and the latest ACIC heroin consumption (1021kg nationally). To calculate it is 25,704,340 divided by 100,000, then multiply by 1.9 = 488. Then divide the amount of heroin consumed 1021kg by 488 deaths nationally from heroin use = approximately one death per 2kg.

Visa penalties and new powers to speed up removal of illegal migrants
New powers will incentivise other countries to co-operate with the removal of those who have no right to be in the UK. TL Bureau, London The Home Secretary will be granted new powers to impose visa penalties on countries that refuse to take back their own citizens who have no right to be in the UK, under new reforms in the Nationality and Borders Bill announced today (Friday 15 October 2021). Under these new powers, the Home Secretary will be able to take a tougher stance on countries that do not co-operate with deportations and removals, by suspending visas entirely, imposing a £190 surcharge on applications to come to the UK or increasing visa processing times. When used, these powers will help to incentivise other countries to cooperate with the government to remove those who have no right to be in the country. The new power to impose visa penalties is one of the amendments the government has tabled to the Nationality and Borders Bill, as the Home Secretary delivers on her commitment to create a fair but firm immigration system as part of the New Plan for Immigration. Together these measures will help prevent dangerous illegal journeys into the UK and break the business model of the criminal gangs exploiting people. Home Secretary, Priti Patel said: The UK has a proud history of being
open to the world but we rightly expect our international partners to work with us to remove those who have no right to be in the UK, such as dangerous foreign national offenders. It is unfair on UK citizens and taxpayers that pressure is put on our public services by foreign nationals with no legal right to be here. Through my New Plan for Immigration, and this landmark legislation, I will continue to take the difficult action needed to fix our broken asylum system and deliver on what the British people want – full control of our borders. More foreign criminals will also be removed sooner. Under changes to the Early Removal Scheme, foreign national criminals will now be eligible for removal up to 12 months before the end of their
custodial sentence, as opposed to nine months. Minister for Justice and Tackling Illegal Migration, Tom Pursglove said: The New Plan for Immigration provides the only long-term solution to fix our broken asylum system, and we are taking another step forward in delivering on this commitment as our Nationality and Borders Bill continues its passage through Parliament. We are ensuring our system is fair for those who play by the rules, but firm on foreign criminals and those in our country illegally. We have brought forward the most significant reforms to the immigration and asylum system in decades. This is what the British people have consistently demanded. Strengthening the Bill through these
amendments will ensure that we continue to deliver for them. The government has also tabled further amendments to the Bill, including: changes to the Special Immigration Appeals Commission Act 1997, to safeguard sensitive material. This will mean that legal challenges on immigration decisions which involve sensitive information can be heard by a court that specialises in protecting sensitive information expanding the types of claims that can be dealt with in an accelerated appeal from detention, so that more cases can be resolved while the person is in detention rather than them being released into the community. This includes foreign national offenders Other government amendments expected to be tabled in Parliament over the coming week include: introducing a robust approach to age assessment to better identify children seeking asylum and stop adults accessing children’s services legislation to establish an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) Scheme, in line with the government’s ambition to secure the border. Once introduced, carriers will need to check that all passengers (except British and Irish citizens) have a digital authorisation or some other form of permission before they can travel to the UK
The United States Announces UK provides almost £30 million to humanitarian catastrophe in northern Ethiopia New Humanitarian Aid in UK Minister for Africa Vicky Central America and Mexico Ford, announces an additional TL Bureau, London
TL Bureau, Washington D.C.
Ned Price, Department Spokesperson The United States, through the Department of State’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), is providing more than $20 million in additional assistance to help meet urgent humanitarian needs for the nearly 700,000 asylum seekers, refugees, and vulnerable migrants in Central America and Mexico. This additional funding brings the total U.S. humanitarian assistance for Central America and Mexico to more than $331 million for Fiscal Year 2021. This additional funding will support increased access to international protection, access to mental health and psychosocial support, legal assistance, shelter, and healthcare, including prevention and treatment of COVID-19. Through its international organization partners, PRM funding also supports protection capacity building for
governments in the region. Through this new humanitarian assistance, the United States is advancing our mission to collaboratively manage migration in the region, including by promoting access to protection and increasing the U.S. response to urgent humanitarian needs in Central America and Mexico. This is part of the Administration’s comprehensive approach to supporting safe, orderly, and humane migration while also addressing the root causes of irregular migration in the region. The United States is the largest single donor of humanitarian aid in Central America and Mexico and to asylum seekers, refugees, and vulnerable migrants in the region. We remain concerned about the continuing increase in humanitarian needs and forced displacement in the region, and we urge other donors to contribute to the international response and provide the support needed to save lives.
The Minister for Africa Vicky Ford has announced an additional £29m of humanitarian aid to people affected by the catastrophic conflict in northern Ethiopia. The announcement marks World Food Day today [16 October] and increases the UK’s commitment to the crisis to more than £75m - making the UK the second largest donor. The Minister is also calling on all parties in Ethiopia to urgently agree a ceasefire to allow humanitarian aid through and for the Ethiopian Government to lift the de facto blockade of humanitarian relief into the Tigray region. The people of Tigray need 500 trucks of critical assistance per week, but less than 10% of this has been met since June. The conflict has caused a humanitarian catastrophe, with the UN estimating that 5.5 million people face acute food insecurity. Over 400,000 people in northern Ethiopia are experiencing famine-like conditions – more than in all of the humanitarian crises in the rest of the world combined.
