Police are assessing a post relating to Palestine Action that was made by Sarah Helm, the wife of the Prime Minister’s national security adviser, Jonathan Powell.
The assessment concerns the post by Ms Helm, although no further details about its content or the nature of the police inquiry have been provided in the supplied material.
Downing Street said Ms Helm did not represent the Government in any capacity. The statement distinguishes her personal activity from the official responsibilities of Mr Powell, who serves as the national security adviser.
The latest known position is that police are reviewing the post, while the Government has made clear that Ms Helm was not speaking on its behalf.
