- Unions have warned that as many as 50,000 people could lose their jobs and vital services could deteriorate after Rachel Reeves confirmed plans to cut Civil Service running costs by 15%.
The Chancellor said Labour was looking to cut back the Civil Service, which she said had swelled during the Covid-19 pandemic, by slashing its “back office functions, the administrative and bureaucracy functions” by the end of this parliament.
The leader of the biggest civil service union said any cuts will hit frontline services after years of underfunding by previous Conservative governments.
The Sun's Harry Cole says Labour's plan of growth was all a "gamble", as the Chancellor aims to cut £2 billion from the Civil Service.

- "A Wake Up Call" Counter-Terrorism Expert BLASTS Heathrow Preparedness

- Description
- Peter Cardwell brings counter-terrorism and prison safety expert Ian Acheson onto Talk for his take on the shocking fire at an electrical substation which cancelled all of today’s flights at Heathrow Airport.
Ian says that it's too early to tell what the causes of the fire are, and while terrorism or sabotage is possible, people can't read too much into the presence of a counter-terrorism investigation at this stage.
That being said, Ian does say the massive disruption unfortunately shows how unprotected the UK’s security and economic infrastructure really is.

- Description
- Counter-terrorism police officers are leading the investigation into the cause of a fire which has led to the closure of Heathrow airport.
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police said there is “currently no indication of foul play” but “we retain an open mind at this time”.
The force said its Counter Terrorism Command would lead inquiries given the impact of the fire “on critical national infrastructure”.
More than 200,000 air passengers have had their flights to or from Heathrow cancelled or diverted on Friday because the airport is closed all day after a fire at a nearby electrical substation.
Thousands of homes have been left without power and more than 100 people were evacuated after a transformer within the North Hyde electrical substation caught fire in west London.

- Description
- Labour is under fire for a major council tax hike, adding to the cost of living crisis.
Average Band D bills in England will rise by 5%, up £109 to £2,280.
Critics slammed Sir Keir Starmer, who promised in 2023 to freeze council tax, but bills are now 20% higher than in 2021-22, when the average was £1,898.
This comes as Birmingham City Council has been urged to "drastically improve" its council tax collection as it tries to recover from its financial crisis.
The Labour-run council, which declared itself effectively bankrupt, raised council tax by 10% last year, with another 7.5% hike coming in April.
Alex Phillips speaks with Shimeon Lee from the Taxpayers' Alliance.
