In a significant development, U.S. President Joe Biden revealed that Israel has proposed a "roadmap" to terminate its nearly eight-month-long conflict in the Gaza Strip. In a speech from the White House on Friday, Biden outlined Israel's three-phase plan, which aims to cease hostilities and pave the way for peace and reconstruction. The initial phase of Israel's offer involves a six-week period during which Israeli forces will withdraw from all populated areas in Gaza. This phase also includes a comprehensive ceasefire and the release of numerous hostages, including women, the elderly, and the wounded, in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners.

Rishi Sunak has unveiled the Conservative campaign bus in Teesside during his tour of the North East. In a speech in front of the blue coach, the Prime Minister sought to draw dividing lines with Labour. He said the Tories are “the ones taking bold action, getting the planes off to Rwanda”, despite the Prime Minister confirming earlier in the campaign that no deportation flights are due to take off before the General Election on July 4.

Labour Party leader Keir Starmer urged voters to choose change in the upcoming general election. Starmer emphasised the party's transformation to prioritise working people and outlined plans to stabilise the economy, reduce waiting lists, and create Great British Energy to lower bills. "If you want change, you have to vote for it," he said, seeking a mandate to implement these first steps. Report by Covellm.

The Tories have announced a pledge to give 30 towns £20 million, a plan that Labour has described as a “reckless, unfunded” commitment. The Conservatives have announced they would add the towns to their long-term plan for towns, taking the total number of towns in the programme to more than 100, and local people in each area will decide how the money will be used for long-term regeneration.
