Essex Police end investigation into Allison Pearson's tweet, facing a review over handling.
Essex Police have dropped their investigation into Daily Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson over a controversial tweet from a year ago, following advice from the Crown Prosecution Service. Pearson was investigated for alleged incitement of racial hatred, prompting a visit to her home on Remembrance Sunday that drew criticism from former prime ministers Boris Johnson and Liz Truss, and Elon Musk. An independent review into the police's handling of the case will be conducted by the National Police Chiefs' Council hate crime lead.
