Negotiations on a deal for citizens under 30 are reportedly nearing a conclusion. The potential agreement is reportedly reigniting familiar arguments over the merits of the original departure, with Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham among those involved in the debate.
The army’s chief of the general staff warned that the public may have to make sacrifices to prepare for a potential future war. At the same time, the government faces internal tension over infrastructure; Keir Starmer has backed a third runway at Heathrow, a move that reportedly creates a rift with Andy Burnham.
Childcare reforms are expected to save families up to 1,300 a year, though the benefit remains a forecast rather than a reality. In Croydon, a housing development inspired by the architectural style of Le Corbusier has been awarded the Stirling Prize.
