- Naz Shah first came to public attention through her campaign to free her mother, who was imprisoned after killing an abusive partner - a case that raised difficult questions about domestic violence, justice and the way the system treats women who fight back.

Before entering politics, her early life was marked by poverty, abuse and coercion. She was sent to Pakistan as a child, forced into marriage as a teenager, and later returned to the UK to care for her younger siblings while her mother served a long prison sentence.
She has since written extensively about her experiences in her memoir Honoured, and built a political career rooted in her formative years. Since 2015, she has been the Labour MP for Bradford West, advocating on issues including violence against women, poverty and inequality.

This experiment was a simulation, but the same AI models are already flying drones, running infrastructure and being built into weapons systems.
Channel 4 News approached Grok and Gemini for a comment but they didn't respond.

- Jack Clark co-founded Anthropic, one of the world's most powerful AI companies, and has spent years arguing that the technology he's helping build could be the most disruptive force in human history - bigger than the Industrial Revolution, and happening far faster.
In this part of an episode of Ways to Change the World, he speaks to Krishnan Guru-Murthy about what AI is really doing to the labour market, why Anthropic publishes its own economic data as an early warning system for unemployment, and what governments need to do before a crisis forces their hand. Clark discusses which jobs are most at risk, why he thinks nurses and teachers could end up better paid, and whether AI companies should be taxed to fund the social safety nets their technology may dismantle. He also reflects on the lessons of COVID, the case for taxing computing power, and why, despite everything, he remains optimistic.

Scores of his own MPs had publicly called for him to go, some around the table apparently shared that view privately. But the PM vowed to “get on with governing” and what followed seems more like a Mexican standoff… none of the contenders - the likes of Wes Streeting or Andy Burnham yet willing or able to openly challenge him.
Instead, the sight of Starmer's allies coming out that door to assure the media their man is going nowhere. We have been watching the day's events unfold.

- It’s another febrile day in Westminster with Prime Minister Keir Starmer - for now - clinging on but he's far from safe as a succession of ministers have stepped down, with more expected to go. On top of that, the man who has become the PM's nemesis in the north, Andy Burnham, is apparently down in London.

So it looks like Keir Starmer might just hit the current average tenure of British Prime Ministers - two years, but no more. Is this really the way to run a country in the middle of two wars and a cost-of-living crisis? And could anyone else really do any better?
On this episode of The Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy is joined by the Liverpool Echo's Political Editor Liam Thorp, who has co-authored a book with Andy Burnham on how to transform the country, and the Observer columnist Will Hutton.

It’s not the first time Israel's involvement has caused anger - but this week protests are expected across Vienna, where the show is taking place.
Russia was excluded after it invaded Ukraine - critics argue the same rules should apply to Israel. But supporters say Eurovision should stay separate from politics. The final is this Saturday 16 May.
