Today's Video Focus: Now for some voices you rarely hear from in the Brexit debate. More than 600,000 children live in the UK who were born elsewhere in the EU. Many of them came to Britain years ago and now consider it home. So what does Brexit mean for these young people, who are still finding their place in the world?
Focus of the Day Article:
A year-long pilot to hear applications to set aside county court default judgments by an internet-enabled video link will begin at the end of this month. It is the latest development in the ongoing court modernisation programme. The pilot will apply to applications heard at the Manchester or Birmingham Civil Justice Centres under changes introduced in the 101st update to the Civil Procedure Rules as Practice Direction 51V.
