UK threat level downgraded to severe from critical: minister
Thirty people were injured on Friday in a bombing at a London Underground train.
Britain’s Home Secretary Amber Rudd arrives to attend the weekly meeting of the cabinet at Downing Street in central London on September 12, 2017. British MPs voted in favour of the European Union (Withdrawal) Bill on September 12, a key moment for the government’s Brexit strategy despite opposition accusations of an unprecedented power grab. The bill is aimed at repealing the 1972 law through which Britain joined the bloc, transferring in bulk around 12,000 existing EU regulations onto the British statute books. / AFP PHOTO / Daniel LEAL-OLIVAS
