Home Office *finally* release statement on Billy Caldwell case at 11.21pm. Could this mean they will relent? Hopefully good sense will prevail.

Exclusive: The three neurologists the Home Office recommended Billy Caldwell see last week after it seized his cannabis oil medicine were all “unavailable” to see him. Shameful.

@andrewellson The home Secretary should apologise in public to this family. It's time this government was voted out of office - by its own MPs. The are totally unfit for anything.
