Exclusive: Review of Home Office procedures ordered after ‘shambolic’ disciplinary process relating to Steve Dann

A Home Office investigation has found one of its most senior officials harassed and behaved inappropriately towards a female colleague, before being able to leave the civil service with an unblemished record after a “shambolic” disciplinary process.

The case has caused such alarm in the department that the new permanent secretary, Antonia Romeo, has ordered an immediate review of complaints, conduct and disciplinary procedures to “ensure confidence in the integrity of the system”.

Christian group Generation Life has sent 20somethings to do ‘beach outreach’ at the US haven for hedonism for two decades. A lot about young people’s sex lives – and their sales pitch – has changed

By the time the young man in red swim shorts sprinted up the beach to Chiara MacGillivray and Jon Sechuk, the two twentysomethings had yet to convince a single Jersey shore partier to join their crusade for chastity.

In fairness, convincing young people to remain “chaste” until marriage is a hard sell at the best of times. And the members of Generation Life knew that Saturday in June at the Jersey shore – a stretch of sand south of Atlantic City so renowned for horniness, drunkenness and reality TV show antics that its very name has become a synonym for hedonism – was not exactly a good time for chastity. It may have even been the worst possible time.

• Ineos rider holds off rivals after going two minutes clear

• Pogacar retains the overall leader’s yellow jersey

Thymen Arensman rescued an otherwise anonymous Tour de France for Ineos Grenadiers with a solo stage victory in the final Pyrenean stage, to Superbagnères in the Haute Garonne.

The Dutch rider, a close second to Simon Yates on the stage to Puy-de-Sancy, entered the final five kilometres almost two minutes ahead of his closest rivals and, despite being pursued by Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard, was able to hang on to take his first stage win in the Tour. Pogacar added 4sec to his overall lead, now 4min 13sec ahead of Vingegaard.
