Mrs May Ended The Conference Being Publicly Supported By Her Mps And Ministers Although There Were Reports Of Emerging Plots Among Some Mps.

In his speech, Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson - who has been accused of undermining the PM with his interventions on Brexit strategy - said it was time to "let the British lion roar". Mrs May ended the conference being publicly supported by her MPs and ministers although there were reports of "emerging plots" among some MPs.

The centre ground of British politics had shifted, he argued, and his Labour Party was now in the "political mainstream" because its polices were "what most people in our country actually want". He used the speech to announce some new policies - such as rent controls and curbs on gentrification - but it was mainly a chance to rally the troops for another election campaign, with the Tory government "hanging by a thread". His supporters in the hall loved it, although they were chanting "Oh, Jeremy Corbyn" for a full two minutes before he had even begun. This conference cemented Mr Corbyn's dominance of the party, following his better-than-expected general election result. There was a row about Brexit, with moderate MPs, who want Mr Corbyn to commit to keeping the UK in the single market and customs union, feeling they had been denied a vote on this issue and the chance to debate it more fully. And Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell caused a stir when he warned Labour must prepare for all eventualities in government, including a possible run on the pound.

SINGAPORE - Two men and a woman were arrested on Monday (Jan 8) for promoting a multi-level marketing scheme that was illegal. They also did not have the required licence to operate a business in a regulated activity, said the police in a statement on Monday. Aged between 44 and 61, the trio were arrested after an investigation by the Commercial Affairs Department into a scheme offered by an overseas company to investors here between 2013 and 2015. The company promised investors monthly returns of about six to eight per cent, supposedly derived from trades in leveraged foreign exchange. In such trading, gains or losses are made on the movement of exchange rates between currencies, using borrowed capital. Investors were also able to receive referral commissions if they recruited new investors to the scheme, and also if those new investors then recruited others. The police advised members of the public that it is unlawful to promote or participate in a non-exempted multi-level marketing or a pyramid-selling scheme. If found guilty under Section 3 of the MLM Act, one can face a fine of up to $200,000, up to five years' jail, or both. It is also illegal to carry out a business in any regulated activity without a Capital Markets Services Licence issued by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, unless otherwise exempted or excluded, added the police. If found guilty under Section 82 of the Securities Futures Act, one can be fined up to $150,000, jailed for up to three years, or both.
