The Guardian reports that security arrangements for high-profile public figures in the UK are to be reviewed following the murder of former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe. The story, tagged under UK security and counter-terrorism and naming Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood, suggests ministers are reassessing protection for prominent political personalities in the wake of the killing.
Why now: The murder of a well-known former politician has prompted immediate questions about whether public figures in Britain receive adequate protection.
