Met Police will no longer investigate non-crime hate incidents

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

The Metropolitan Police says the change will allow officers to "focus on matters that meet the threshold for criminal investigations". The announcement came as the Met confirmed it was dropping a probe into Father Ted creator Graham Linehan. Also in the programme: Israeli writer David Grossman reflects on how the world should view his country now a Gaza ceasefire is in place. And after thieves make off with priceless crown jewels from the Louvre, will the easily identifiable items be broken down before being sold on, or handed over intact to a mystery buyer?
