UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has announced the return of the £2 bus fare cap in most of England, but how will it be funded?

And, Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar, one of the first and most senior Labour politicians to publicly call for Keir Starmer to go, is expected to join Andy Burnham's government. He’ll be joining fellow Starmer dissenters Wes Streeting and John Healey in the cabinet.

Adam Fleming is joined by Chris Mason and Henry Zeffman to unpack it all.

In a major challenge to England's control, the First Ministers of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have reiterated their countries' right to self-determination. The leaders say that "Westminster's time is coming to an end." Will the three nations opt for independence and bring an end to the United Kingdom? Even US President Donald Trump seems to be supporting the idea of Ireland's reunification, adding more pressure on British Prime Minister Andy Burnham. Firstpost explains what has led to the renewed calls for Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish independence. Hem Kaur Saroya also looks at London's own history of partitioning other countries.

Warning: This report contains distressing themes and sexual language

I met Esme just 10 days after she had been sexually assaulted while travelling home on a train.

She had recently shared a video on TikTok describing what had happened. Thousands of people watched it and hundreds contacted her to share their own experiences.

As we spoke about the impact the assault had had on her, she told me it was the second time she had reported a sexual offence to British Transport Police using its 61016 text service.

The first happened in March 2024 on a Jubilee line train near Canning Town.

"It was standing room only," she told me. "I looked down and there was a man masturbating on me."

Despite CCTV appeals, nobody has ever been identified.

British Transport Police told ITV News that while its investigation into the June 2026 assault remains ongoing, the 2024 investigation was closed after "all lines of enquiry were exhausted", pending any new information.

Esme admits that has shaken her confidence.

“They just have to wait and hope that maybe these people might assault you again. Or they might offend again, and they'll catch them someplace else,” she said.

To understand what happens after someone sends that first text message, ITV News was given exclusive access to the force's new Violence Against Women and Girls Taskforce.

Recorded offences have risen by almost 18% over the past year. British Transport Police believes that rise is being driven by more victims feeling able to report what has happened to them.

Iranian Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei issued a stern warning that US warships anywhere across the Indian Ocean will face direct attacks if conflict restarts, asserting that Tehran's hypersonic missile speeds have been upgraded from Mach 6 to Mach 10 alongside advanced electronic warfare suites. Simultaneously, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf declared the "old American order" in West Asia dead, insisting the Strait of Hormuz will remain shut until Iran's full rights are recognized. The rhetoric coincides with heightened regional alerts, as the US restricted government travel to Taif and Yanbu following Houthi drone strikes near Riyadh.

Elon Musk is no stranger to controversial claims. His political views, disseminated to his 240m followers on X, strike many as plain-speaking and strike many more as plainly bigoted. In an interview with The Economist, editor-in-chief Zanny Minton Beddoes challenges some of Musk’s more outlandish claims, including that civil war in Britain is “inevitable”. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO also responds to allegations that he’s racist and a supporter of the far right.

You can watch the full interview from 6pm London time (1pm in New York), via the Economist’s website.

This is Reform promising that if they are elected, any migrant who wishes to stay in the UK (or come in the future) will need to pass an English language test at a level which most won’t be able to meet.

This is part of their wider proposal to withdraw Indefinite Leave to Remain from anyone in the UK who currently holds it, and require them to apply for a renewable work visa: there would be an English language requirement attached to this application.

Here's the english test link : https://shorturl.at/H4PNI

The number of people deported from the US to the UK has doubled since Trump took office for the second time last year, figures obtained by The Telegraph have revealed.

Data from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) show that 212 people were deported to the UK from the US between Trump’s inauguration on Jan 20 and Oct 15, the most recent date for which figures were available.
