British Foreign Minister Lammy faces fine for fishing with Vance without a license

British Foreign Secretary David Lammy may be fined 2.5 thousand pounds (about 270 thousand rubles) for fishing with US Vice President Jay Dee Vance without a fishing rod license. This was reported on August 13 by Sky News channel.

"David Lammy contacted an environmental organization after he went fishing with J.D. Vance without a fishing rod license due to an "administrative oversight." The absence of a valid license may result in a fine of up to 2.5 thousand pounds," the publication says.

According to the TV channel, the meeting of the two diplomats took place last Friday, August 8. Vance and his family spent two days at Lammy's during their summer vacation. Following the meeting, he described the British Foreign Secretary as "a good friend and a very kind host."

According to Environmental Protection Agency law, all anglers in the UK aged 13 and over must have a fishing rod license. Lammy sent a letter to the organization due to an "administrative oversight" that resulted in the failure to obtain appropriate fishing licenses on a private lake as part of a diplomatic meeting.

On August 4, NBC reported that American rapper Deandre Cortez Way, known under the pseudonym Soulja Boy, was arrested in Los Angeles in a case of illegal possession of firearms. It is noted that the musician was arrested on Sunday morning, August 3. The police stopped the car in which he was traveling at the intersection of Melrose and Genesee Avenues.
