Police chiefs will be able to automatically sack officers who fail background checks, under new government measures to boost confidence in policing. Calls for a change to police vetting procedures began after an independent report into the murder of Sarah Everard by police officer Wayne Couzens in 2021. The new measures, that make passing background checks a legal requirement for all serving officers, will be laid in Parliament on Wednesday and come into effect next month.

Following its explosion in mainstream popularity over the last decade, A24 has reached a crossroads in its journey: stick to its roots of unique, left field storytelling, or take the increases in budget and countless awards and become one of the behemoths of the movie making business.

This time, working with director David Ayer again, it is Jason Statham versus the Russian mafia. Levon Cade (Statham) works construction after a successful career as a special op in the military.
