Prime Minister Andy Burnham has warned the UK faces an “economic catastrophe and moral failure” due to the nearly one million young people not in education, employment or training.Writing in the Times newspaper, external, Burnham has laid out his case for the government to “invest in the success of our young people” rather than “pay for failure through the benefits system”.”Benefits will become the backstop, not the starting point,” Burnham wrote in his piece published in Monday’s paper.Later this week, the government is expected to announce plans to give young people thousands of job opportunities. The Conservative Party has labelled…
When Celtic score seven it seems odd to talk about pieces of defending they did that were significant, but Colby Donovan’s cameos warrant mention. Around the midpoint of the first half, Hearts stirred a little. You wouldn’t say that they had momentum, but they had a bit of a possession and their hair-on-fire panic of the early minutes seemed under control. Twice in the space of three minutes, Josh McPake – one of the form players in the country – took on Donovan and twice Donovan routed him. Those little duels might disappear from relevance after the deluge, but at…
Passengers who play loud music on buses in England could be fined up to £100 under an attempt by the government to crack down on antisocial behaviour.The measures also seek to tackle littering, vaping and threatening behaviour to help improve journeys on all forms of public transport.Offenders on buses could be issued with the fines under new powers for local authorities.A national campaign asking rail passengers “share the carriage, not the noise” is also being launched. The proposed crackdown has been welcomed by campaigners, but some have questioned how it can be enforced.”We’ve all been on the train when someone…
Brighton have never finished higher than sixth in English football’s top flight, but they now have 16 points from seven matches, with fan hopes rising that they could make a real push for Champions League qualification, or even a title challenge.Their tally of 23 top-flight goals is four more than league leaders Manchester City, and more than double the 11 of reigning champions Arsenal.Since the top flight was rebranded as the Premier League in 1992, only three sides have scored more goals across their first seven games of a season – Arsenal in 2009-10 (24), Manchester United in 2011-12 (24),…

The UK storm season runs from September until August and it is not unusual to reach this stage of autumn without any named storms.If the UK Met Office or Ireland’s Met Éireann expect this week’s low pressure system to bring significant impacts, that would lead them to issue weather warnings at an amber level or higher . If the storm is then named, it will be called ‘Storm Austen’.It is possible that the low pressure system could follow an even more southerly track, meaning greater impacts in France and less across the UK, and the French weather service MeteoFrance could…
Crystal Palace manager Pierre Sage said he felt “shame” at the Eagles’ performance during their 5-0 thrashing by Brighton and did not know whether he would be given time to save his job.Sage’s side conceded three times in the opening 10 minutes as they suffered their worst loss to their rivals since January 1956.”It’s my fault because I am the coach, I gave the motivation. I prepare the situations. We played so bad it’s my fault,” said Frenchman Sage, who was only appointed Palace manager in the summer.”It’s difficult to summarise because there are a lot of negative points.”We started…
Be careful where you buy from, shoppers are being warned as criminals use AI to supercharge scams.Some fraudsters have made websites for fake retailers that claim to be family-owned firms selling quality UK-made products. Images may show a UK High Street with Union Jack flags in shot.If you order you’re likely to find a product either never arrives, or is a cheap, mass-produced item from a country such as China, trading standards officers say. AI-generated images like this, as well as voice cloning and deepfake videos are increasingly being used to trick people out of their money, according to National…
Noni Madueke may not have the starting role he wants at Arsenal, but his winning goal against Nottingham Forest showed why he is one of Mikel Arteta’s valued “finishers”.The England international scored in the second half to earn Arsenal a 1-0 result and three valuable points towards their defence of the Premier League title.Madueke has started just one top-flight game this season, the 2-1 win over Leeds that came eight days prior to their victory over Oliver Glasner’s Forest on Sunday.Arsenal’s summer was dominated by talk of their search for an elite forward, with the left wing one of the…
“The full costs at RAF Linton-on-Ouse must be counted,” the letter reads. “Any business case must include capital works, water, sewage and electricity infrastructure, security, transport, healthcare, policing, emergency services, maintenance, decommissioning and site restoration – not merely accommodation contracts.”Prof Matthias accused the Government of “frequent contradictions” in promising taxpayer savings, before leaning on a manifesto pledge.”Over the last few months, various news outlets have questioned various ministers [on the cost of asylum centres], saying it’s projected to cost more,” she told GB News. “There are NAO reports going back to 2005 that state it is much more expensive to…
