Dartford MP Gareth Johnnson, who has travelled to Cyprus to seek justice for George Low who was murdered there two years ago, has said it's a "national disgrace" for the island that no-one has stood trial over his death.

Estate agent Mr Low, 22, from Dartford, was killed near a nightclub in Ayia Napa in Cyprus in August 2016.

Two suspects were arrested after crossing to the Turkish controlled part of Cyprus but were freed and not handed over to the Greek Cypriot police.

Gareth Johnson, the Conservative MP for Dartford, held a series of meetings with police and ministers while in Cyprus.

The British High Commissioner there told BBC South East that getting justice for Mr Low was his team's "absolute" priority.

A new innovation park which could bring up to 1,300 jobs to Medway has been launched - with businesses said to be ready to move in by the end of next year.

Medway Council believes Innovation Park Medway - based at Rochester Airport - will be its "flagship regeneration site", attracting high-quality technology, engineering and manufacturing companies to the Towns.

At a launch event today, leader councillor Alan Jarrett (Con) said the 100,000 m2 site would complement the area's existing economy as well as its higher education provision.

He said: "We're looking for businesses that bring innovation, high-value jobs - so there won't be any warehouses or distribution centres.

"There will be the maximum number of businesses we can get onto the site, and we anticipate anything up to 1,300 jobs being provided once it's built up."

The council are said to already be in discussions with interested parties, with councillor Jarrett suggesting the facility could welcome its first tenants by next autumn.

Concerns were raised about standards after a second school in Portslade dropped a grade in its Ofsted report.

A two-day inspection in June at Mile Oak Primary School in Graham Avenue, Portslade, led to it dropping from good to requires improvement.

Inspectors said teaching was inconsistent, tasks weren't always matched to pupils' abilities, teaching of reading is not focused and some pupils were badly behaved.

This came a month after Brackenbury Primary School in Locks Hill also dropped to requires improvement.

Mile Oak's interim executive headteacher Rachel Simmonds and the leadership team were praised in the report, which said staff were "united in the drive for improvement" - but when the inspection took place, changes had not yet taken effect.

The report stated: "The interim senior leadership team has provided effective support for leaders across the school.

"As a result, subject leadership is strengthening. However, many actions are recent and have not been in place long enough for leaders to evaluate or refine them."

Pupils were described as making rapid progress. On Monday evening, Brighton and Hove City Council's Children, Young People and Skills Committee discussed the impact of these and other recent inspections on the city as a whole.

Labour councillor Caroline Penn said: "It is good to hear the leadership is praised. "There is quite a lot of confidence among parents and the community."

Peter Muro says he tried to grab the driver before he drove across a packed marquee dance floor.

Extra housing planned for Wealden district will put more strain on East Sussex's roads and its education system, according to the county council.

Wealden District Council is holding an eight-week public consultation on its draft planning framework, which sets out where new homes and jobs will be provided up to 2028.

At a meeting on Monday, officers explained how growth, particularly housing provision, was the most significant of all the areas in East Sussex. This would have a "considerable impact" on both the highways network and education system.

They explained how junction and capacity improvements already proposed would have to be enhanced further or delivered earlier.

Meanwhile, extra school places would be required in Hailsham.

Consultation on the local plan closes on Monday 8 October.
