Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham has committed to publishing details of his meetings with Manchester City, following criticism over his public comments after the club's Premier League financial rule breaches were confirmed.
Two men have received prison sentences for their involvement in a conspiracy to commit arson against properties and a vehicle connected to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer. The attacks, reportedly orchestrated by a Russian-speaking contact, occurred in North London in May 2025.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is reportedly considering announcing a timetable for his resignation following Labour's defeat in the Makerfield by-election. Multiple government insiders suggest an announcement could come as early as Monday, with Business Secretary Peter Kyle indicating Starmer would act in the "best interests of the country." Andy Burnham's decisive victory over Reform in Makerfield has positioned him as the overwhelming favourite to become the next Labour leader, consolidating calls for Starmer to step aside.
