The suggestion comes as Security Minister Dan Jarvis reportedly revealed both Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan will be returned to the UK following the conclusion of his Romanian trial.

Court proceedings are currently ongoing in Bucharest, with the pair remaining under investigation for rape, human trafficking, and forming a criminal gang.

Aside from the human trafficking charges, the duo are also being sued by four women, after the Crown Prosecution Service decided not to prosecute in 2019.

It comes amid claims toxic social media influencers like Andrew Tate are fuelling misogyny and sexism in Britain’s schools.

Mr Jarvis said the Tates would be 'surrendered', marking the first time any British MP or official has commented on the pair's future - and whether they would ever be returned to the UK to face justice.

According to The Telegraph, Jarvis, the Security Minister, said Tate, 38, and his brother Tristan, 36, would be brought to the UK following the conclusion of the pair's criminal trial in Romania.

Judges in the country had previously ruled out deporting the two men from the UK.

It comes after Bedfordshire Police initially obtained a warrant for the pair's arrest over allegations of rape and human trafficking.

Warnings, issued by teachers, comes after early 6,000 teachers were polled by the NASUWT teaching union.

Nearly three in five (59%) said they believe social media use has contributed to a deterioration in pupils' behaviour.

The findings come as part of the Union’s annual report, which has been released alongside its conference this weekend.

During the conference, teachers will debate a motion which says far-right and populist movements have shifted their recruitment on to social media, messaging and online gaming platforms.
