BEN CHACKO reports on fears at TUC Congress that the provisions in the legislation are liable to be watered down even further

THE on-off-maybe Singapore summit between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the United States has brought an element of farce to a historical relationship that has more often been characterised by tragedy.

In his letter to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un announcing that he was pulling out of the talks, scheduled for June 12, Trump wrote: “Sadly, based on the tremendous anger and open hostility displayed in your most recent statement, I felt it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long planned meeting.”
