Home Secretary Suella Braverman said armed police officers “mustn’t fear” being prosecuted for carrying out their duty as she launched a review to “ensure confidence” on Sunday.

It came after officers began handing in their weapons after an officer who killed unarmed drill rapper Chris Kaba was charged with his murder.
