A team of Navy experts had been running a high-stakes “round the clock” operation to track a Russian warship before it fired warning shots over a British yacht in the Channel this week.

For at least two months, the Navy has been hunting the Admiral Grigorovich “24/7” with a range of patrol vessels and frigates, alongside P-8 RAF jets. In April alone, more than 250 Navy personnel were involved in the mission.

Jennifer Upjohn, a 39-year-old mother of four sons, was born and brought up in Lambeth. She has lived in the south London borough all her life, has family and friends nearby and supports her older mother who still lives locally. She has been on the Lambeth housing waiting list for over 19 years, since she was a teenager.

As a young mother she was constantly moved between hostels and short-term private rented housing, before being placed in long-term temporary accommodation with her sons and partner a decade ago.
