In contrast to recent hostility in the House of Commons, Midlands MP Philip Dunne found himself unexpectedly knighted during a debate on protests in Hong Kong.

The speaker John Bercow introduced Ludlow's Conservative MP as Sir Philip Dunne, prompting one of the week's more light-hearted exchanges in the chamber.

Mr Dunne, who used to live in Hong Kong, went on to express concern on how the protests in the city were being handled by the authorities and called for the UK government to do what it could to "ensure Hong Kong remains the vibrant financial centre which is so important for international trade".

The "shocking" incident of a police officer being injured in a hit-and-run crash in Coventry is "another example of the daily risks police face as they go about their duties," said the West Midlands Police Federation.

A neighbourhood officer was struck by a vehicle in Holbrook Lane, Radford, yesterday afternoon and taken to hospital with head and leg injuries.

Steve Grange, secretary of the West Midlands Police Federation, said more needed to be done to tackle the "growing number of mindless attacks" on officers.

Police are urging the driver to "do the right thing" and hand himself in.

JLR's chief executive Ralf Speth says the factories require 20 million parts every day, and he has previously warned that disruption at UK borders could leave production lines unable to operate.

The factories were also shut for a week in April, for the same reason.
