- Nigel Farage took aim at Sir Keir Starmer, branding him the “most unpopular prime minister in living memory”, as he unveiled Reform UK’s slogan for the upcoming local elections.
The party will be repeating its mantra of “Vote Reform. Get Starmer out” up until voters in Wales, Scotland and parts of England head to the polls in May.
Reform UK has topped opinion polls in Wales, alongside Plaid Cymru, where the Labour Party has been in power since the Senedd was established in 1999.
Several opinion polls also suggest Reform could take second place in Holyrood, with the SNP remaining the frontrunner.
Speaking outside the Houses of Parliament on Friday, Mr Farage told reporters: “If we achieve anything like our potential, I do not believe Starmer will still be prime minister at the end of May.
“This is the most unpopular prime minister in living memory. Without doubt, the least patriotic prime minister in history....

- Police in London and Manchester are to be given an extra £5 million to pay for more patrols around places of worship, the Home Office has said.
Security minister Dan Jarvis said the money would help “keep people safe in the places where they live, work and worship”.
The funding follows an alleged arson attack in Golders Green, north-west London, where four Jewish community ambulances were set alight last month, and a terror attack on a synagogue in Manchester last October.
It will go towards Project Servator deployments, involving specialist officers who are trained to spot suspects who might be preparing to commit serious crimes.

The call between the leaders came shortly after the Prime Minister criticised the US president over the knock-on effects of the Iran conflict, saying he was “fed up” with bills going up in the UK “because of the actions of Putin or Trump”.
Sir Keir is visiting allies in the Gulf for talks on how to support the pause in fighting and secure a permanent reopening of the key shipping strait.

- US first lady Melania Trump has denied ties to the paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein and called for survivors to be able to give evidence to Congress.
Mrs Trump made the remarks in a rare public statement at the White House and it was not immediately clear what prompted her to speak out about the issue now.
The Epstein scandal and controversy over the release of official documents has been a political headache for her husband Donald Trump, putting a spotlight on his past friendship with the late sex offender, which he has said ended decades ago.
Epstein was found dead in his cell at a federal jail in Manhattan, New York, in August 2019 while he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges. His death was ruled as a suicide.
His accomplice, British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, is currently serving a 20-year jail sentence in the US for luring young girls for him to sexually abuse.

Sir Jim Mackey, chief executive of NHS England, said that many hospitals had found it “challenging” to fill rotas following the Easter weekend.
Health officials have previously highlighted that the strike will be particularly disruptive because of the action taking place during the Easter break, when many NHS staff will have booked time off with their families.

- Large crowds of young people have caused mayhem on a London high street again, just days after dozens of teenagers stormed shops and clashed with police.
Two 16-year-old girls and one 15-year-old girl were arrested for shoplifting and assault after chaos erupted on Clapham High Street on Saturday.
Further trouble broke out on Tuesday with reports of shops being forced to close and families barricaded inside a supermarket, as groups of young people “terrorised” the neighbourhood again.
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said on Tuesday evening: “Police are responding to an ongoing incident on Clapham High Street following reports of a large crowd of young people causing anti-social behaviour.
Officers are on the scene, and a dispersal order has been put in place, meaning anyone congregating must leave the area."

- Sir Keir Starmer will gather business leaders in Downing Street on Monday to address the impact of the Iran war.
The Prime Minister is expected to meet senior representatives from the energy, shipping and financial services industries amid warnings the UK could suffer serious economic damage as a result of the conflict.
Discussion is expected to focus on Iran’s ongoing blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, which has disrupted a vital shipping route for the oil and gas industry along with supplies of other products such as fertiliser.
The meeting will also hear an update on the situation in the region from Major General Richard Cantrill, the UK’s maritime operations commander.
It comes after the Royal Navy announced it was fitting the transport ship RFA Lyme Bay with minehunting drones, understood to be a move intended to provide ministers with options for securing the strait once the situation stabilises.
