- Andy Burnham has convincingly won the Makerfield by-election - clearing a major obstacle on the path to No10.
The 'King of the North' comfortably saw off controversial Reform candidate Rob Kenyon, winning nearly 55% of the vote. He is widely tipped to challenge for the Labour leadership in the coming days or weeks, with Keir Starmer's position now looking increasingly precarious.
Mr Burnham described the result as a "turning point" and said he had unfinished business in Westminster, nearly a decade after he left Parliament. In the most consequential by-election in modern times, he picked up 24,937 votes compared to Mr Kenyon's 15,696. Rebecca Shepherd, of hard-right party Restore, came in third with 3,111.
In his victory speech he said: “Everyone knows that politics isn’t working. Everyone can feel that the country isn’t where it should be. Tonight could, just could, be the turning point." As he left, he told reporters he was going for a pin...

Harry Kane twice gave England the lead against the team who bested them back in the World Cup semi-finals eight years ago before Jude Bellingham and Marcus Rashford got in on the act to seal a memorable win.
It was England who hit the front despite a nervy start to proceedings, Kane converting from the penalty spot at the second time of asking after Dominik Livakovic was caught slightly off his line. Kane's goal settled England down but Croatia hit back through a fine strike from Martin Baturina from the edge of the box. Kane would put England back in front by powering home a header from a magnificent Declan Rice corner but again Croatia would restore parity, this time through Petar Musa.

Burnham is widely expected to challenge Starmer for the leadership if he is elected to Parliament in a special election in Makerfield on Thursday.
Speaking as he attended the G7 summit in the French spa town of Evian-les-Bains, Starmer said that he didn't think there should be a leadership election, stressing: "I am not going to walk away, I am going to fight."
Starmer's leadership has been under pressure from recent ministerial resignations and discontent in the governing Labour Party.

The measures target the shadow fleet used to move Russian oil and gas, and the finance networks used to evade Western sanctions.
The actions also target three companies and ten officers from the GRU intelligence agency suspected of involvement in covertly acquiring Western technology for the Russian military.
The sanctions were announced as Sir Keir Starmer met allies at the G7 summit in France.

The plans will go further than Australia, where a ban came into force in December. The UK is expected to extend certain measures to AI chatbots and gaming platforms, as well as introduce restrictions on social media use for 16- and 17-year...

- Washington DC feels very weird at the moment.
It's always a pretty weird place, but a number of factors have combined to make it even weirder than usual. There's a giant spider looming over the White House, ready to host the UFC fight to mark Trump's 80th birthday.
The Capitol end of the National Mall is fenced off as a FIFA World Cup "Fan Zone" - which keeps getting rained off, in typical Washington in June fashion.
Most of the rest of the Mall is fenced off while the interior department builds the "Great American State Fair", part of the 250th Anniversary celebration - and which will include a scale model of Trump's plan for a giant triumphal archway a mile or so to the west.
And the Lincoln Memorial was fenced off last night so Trump's UFC pals could hold a "press conference" - by which they mean lining up the guys who are about to beat each other senseless for Trump's amusement, and pretending to break them up when they pretend...

- The 2026 World Cup is underway, previously lauded by Fifa's President Gianni Infantino as "simply the greatest event that humanity, that mankind, has ever seen and will ever see".
Certainly, it is set to be one of the most extravagant World Cups, with a record-breaking 48 teams taking part and, for the first time in the tournament's nearly 100-year history, matches jointly hosted by three countries - Mexico, Canada and the United States.
But before a single ball has been kicked, the competition has also earned some other, less favourable, titles - as the most politicised, expensive and contentious World Cup to date.
From controversy over immigration issues and the impact of geopolitics to the costs to fans and the role of President Donald Trump, the tournament has already proven incredibly divisive.
In this video, we take a closer look at some of the major issues surrounding the 2026 World Cup.

- The resignation of John Healey as defence secretary is a shocking blow, showing just how sluggish the needed boost for British defence still is.
Not just because he says so but because he has intently listened to our defence chiefs for months about what the UK needs to defend against threats.
They know Britain needs to plough resources into improving how the UK defends itself and not just how Britain chooses to wage wars abroad
Sadly, the US had pivoted away from NATO and is undoubtedly an unreliable ally. And according to Mr Healey, British defence needs resources and those on offer have fallen short. Currently, the UK spends £70bn a year on defence and that figure needs to get to at least an increase to £36bn.
Mr Healey’s resignation shows a level of unhappiness that we will likely see being expressed by our military chiefs if it has not been made already.
It is thought the military is to be offered another £13b...

- Keir Starmer has vowed to fight any potential leadership contest out of "a very deep sense of duty".
Speaking to the BBC, the Prime Minister said: "I don't think it should happen, but if it does then I will fight. And let me just be clear with you. That's not about personal vanity. It's not about stubbornness. It's out of a very deep sense of duty."
It comes as his government has been shaken to its core after two esteemed defence ministers resigned with devastating criticism of military spending plans. The PM was dealt a significant blow on Thursday after the shock resignation of Defence Secretary John Healey, triggering a crisis in the Ministry of Defence.
Hours later Al Carns, a former Royal Marine, quit as Armed Forces Minister with a withering broadside criticising "inadequate" defence funding. Pamela Nash, a ministerial aide in the department, also resigned tonight, and Rachel Hopkins, another aide, walked out.

- David Hockney, voted the most influential British artist of all time, has died aged 88. His publicist Erica Bolton confirmed he had passed away peacefully at home in London on Thursday, describing him as "one of the most important figures in contemporary art in both the 20th and 21st centuries."
One critic wrote of him: "Hockney is so famous, so popular, such a great talker and character that it's easy to take him for granted as an artist. He is one of only a handful of 20th century British artists who added anything to the image bank of the world's imagination." And a 2011 poll of 1,000 British painters and sculptors declared him Britain's most influential artist of all time, beating Turner, Bacon and Gainsborough.
Hockney was working right up to his death, with an exhibition, A Year in Normandie and Some Other Thoughts About Painting, running at the Serpentine North Gallery in London that opened in March. Millions have seen his most famous paintings: A Bigge...

- Belfast stabbing victim Steven Ogilvie's condition is 'improving' and he may soon be woken from his medically-induced coma within the next 48 hours, according to reports.
Stephen Ogilvie lost his left eye and suffered deep cuts to his head, face and back in a stabbing attack on Monday which preceded two nights of disorder in Northern Ireland that saw masked yobs pelt police with bricks and petrol bombs, set fire to vehicles and homes, and racially abuse a nurse.
The suspect in the knife attack, Sudanese national Hadi Alodid, 30, has been remanded in custody after being charged with attempted stabbing murder.
DUP leader Gavin Robinson told Stormont today that he had spoken to Ogilvie's family and that they were 'broken' over what happened to their son.

“They hope, pray and trust that he will be released from tha...

- Defence Secretary John Healey QUITS over military spending plans in MAJOR BLOW to Keir Starmer

- 2 months ago
- Description
- Defence Secretary John Healey has quit the government in a dramatic blow to Keir Starmer.
Mr Healey lashed out at the Prime Minister and Chancellor Rachel Reeves - saying long-delayed plans for military investment would leave the armed forces vulnerable and leave Britain less safe. In a blistering letter to the PM, Mr Healey accused him of not standing up to the Treasury, which he claimed was unwilling to commit the funds needed to defend the nation.
This was despite the growing threat of a Russian attack on Britain, he said. It comes as ministers are locked in a tense battle over how to fund the long-awaited defence investment plan (DIP), which is already more than six months late.
In a resignation letter to the PM, Mr Healey said the plan, which was shown on Monday, "falls well short of what is required for defence and the country at this dangerous time".
