Children aged 17 or younger will face a lifelong ban on buying cigarettes in the UK, as the Tobacco and Vapes Bill clears Parliament.

Both the Commons and Lords have settled on a final draft of the "landmark" legislation, which aims to stop anyone born after 1 January 2009 from taking up smoking by making it illegal for shops to sell them tobacco, to create a smoke-free generation.

When it gets royal assent, ministers will also have new powers to regulate tobacco, vaping and nicotine products, including their flavours and packaging.

It is part of a series of measures aimed at tackling the health effects of smoking, one of the UK's leading causes of preventable death, disability and ill health.

Former health secretary Wes Streeting has said Brexit was a "catastrophic mistake" and rejoining the European Union would rebuild Britain's economy and trade links - but is he right?

Sky's business correspondent Paul Kelso analyses how the United Kingdom's economy has performed since Brexit - and the economic case for rejoining the bloc.

A convicted people smuggler, described as the “godfather" of the French migrant camps, is living and working in an English village where he’s believed to be seeking asylum, a BBC investigation can reveal.

Twana Jamal was given a five-year jail sentence in France in 2016, where authorities described him as one of the most successful people-smugglers ever caught.

Following a tip-off this year, the BBC traced Jamal to Blaby in Leicestershire, where we witnessed him working illegally, driving a car without a licence and apparently using a false name.

Jamal is one of more than 20 people smugglers the BBC has found to have reached the UK, raising serious concerns about whether existing border controls are effective in checking asylum seekers who have committed serious crimes overseas.

The Home Office told us: "All asylum claimants are subject to mandatory security checks to confirm their identity for the purpose of immigration, security and criminality checks”, and that the UK has "a number of agreements with countries which enable the sharing of criminal record information", adding that immigration enforcement action is currently at its highest level in history.

Russia is threatening the UK with “consequences” after UK-made drones were used by the Ukrainian military to strike Russia.

But Prime Minister Andy Burnham says Ukraine has the UK’s full support and that won’t change.

Ukrainian forces said they launched 620 drones at Moscow and the surrounding area Tuesday, one of their biggest drone attacks on Russia since the invasion.

And in Ukraine, a Russian missile strike in the Khrakiv region has killed at least ten people.

UK military supported US operation to seize tanker in Atlantic with air surveillance and navy ship, Ministry of Defence says.

The ship is accused of breaking US sanctions and shipping Iranian oil - it's historically transported Venezuelan crude oil but reports say it's empty at the moment.

"This action formed part of global efforts to crack down on sanctions busting", UK Defence Secretary John Healey MP said.

"This ship, with a nefarious history, is part of a Russian-Iranian axis of sanctions evasion which is fuelling terrorism, conflict, and misery from the Middle East to Ukraine", he added.

A BBC investigation has found criminal groups who illegally smuggle people to the UK across the English Channel are running low on small boats.

Gang members have told BBC sources that rival factions are now having to work together to load migrants on fewer, larger vessels. They’re also charging them more.

The number of crossings is currently at a six-year-low and UK ministers have credited the French police for intercepting more attempts.

The BBC’s Paris Correspondent James Waterhouse has looked at how the people smugglers are being forced to adapt.

Former Met Police Detective Peter Bleksley and former police officer Paul Birch respond to the Government telling police to use their 'full powers' to deal with protesters at small boats protests.

Protesters wearing face coverings at protests planned in Portsmouth this weekend could be arrested under new policing powers, Hampshire Police has said.

Hampshire Police said it will use the new tactic under the Crime and Policing Act to "allow peaceful protest and prevent violence".

Groups from South Coast Patriots have called for a peaceful march in Portsmouth city centre on Saturday afternoon, while Stand up to Racism will host a counter-protest march.

Anyone in the designated area wearing a face covering will be committing an offence and could be arrested for concealing their identity, the force said.

Earl Spencer, the brother of Diana Princess of Wales, has told the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg that he stands by his claims that King Charles, in the days after her death, said "rest assured, we'll forget her soon enough".

A Buckingham Palace Spokesperson said: "While we do not comment on books as a matter of principle, His Majesty is mindful that the pain of fraternal grief can cloud reason, affect judgment and colour memory in ways others do not recognise, even many years after such a loss."

Two men have been found guilty of conspiring to carry out arson attacks on property and a car connected to UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.

Ukrainian national Roman Lavrynovych, 22, and Ukrainian-born Romanian national Stanislav Carpiuc, 27, were convicted by an Old Bailey jury.

In May 2025, a Toyota once owned by Sir Keir was set alight in a street in Kentish Town, north London. Days later two homes were set ablaze, including one rented out to the prime minister's sister-in-law, which he still owned.

The prosecution told the court Lavrynovych carried out the arson attacks after being recruited online by Russian-speaking Telegram user "El Money" who promised him payment.

The EU President Ursula Von der Leyen has offered Canada ‘associate membership of the EU’, a move which Donald Trump called ‘laughable’ - but still threatened ‘serious sanctions’ as punishment.

[Subscribe to our Substack newsletter: https://channel4news.substack.com/subscribe]

In this episode of the Fourcast, we ask what Canada’s closer ties with the EU could mean - from tighter trade and defense to what Mark Carney calls 'a beacon for other democracies.' But with the far right rising in Europe, is the Canadian Prime Minister trying to join a club that could soon fall apart?

Leslie Vinjamuri, the President and CEO of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs says Carney is playing a long-game when it comes to the US, picking up support on both sides of the border by standing up to Trump, and that his decision to move closer to the EU is a ‘declaration of independence from King Trump’. While Dr. Linn Selle, head of the Europe division of the German Council on Foreign Relations, argues that the EU is chasing Carney’s star power to help revive its appeal.

Canada and the European Union are flirting with a new kind of trade partnership that would allow them to sideline Donald Trump and his trade war. It’s another example of how Mark Carney has been “forthright in standing up to Trump’s nonsense” – and winning support from the public because of it.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney took a veiled swipe at US President Donald Trump on Thursday, insisting that his proposal to deepen ties with the European Union wasn’t aimed at creating a new geopolitical bloc “with better manners.”

Carney’s comments come a day after European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen proposed that Canada become the bloc’s first “associate member” – a designation that does not exist, but which nonetheless provoked a fresh tariff threat from Trump.
