When director Darin J. Sallam came to make her feature debut with Farah, she always knew what the subject matter would be: as a little girl, Sallam’s mother used to tell her the story of a teenage girl who was locked up in her room during the partition of Palestine in 1948. “She was locked up by her father to protect her life,” Sallam recalls. “She survived [the conflict] and she made it to Syria, where she met a Syrian girl and shared her story with her. This Syrian girl grew up, got married and had a child, and she shared the story with her daughter—and this daughter happened to be me.”

Angela Rayner hit out at Dominic Raab urging him to apologise after formal complaints were made against him into bullying allegations.

Raab replied: "She asks about the complaints, I received notification this morning, I immediately asked the Prime Minister to set up an independent inquiry into them.
"I'm confident I behaved professionally throughout but of course I will engage thoroughly and look forward to transparently addressing any claims that have been made."
She hit back: "Let me get this straight. He has had to demand an investigation into himself because the Prime Minister is too weak to get a grip.
