Five justices at the UK's highest court unanimously rejected the government's appeal over its policy of removing asylum seekers to the east African nation if they arrive by unauthorised means.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said the UK economy is suffering from a "sprained ankle" but rejected the diagnosis of a "broken leg" as he painted an optimistic picture of the future. The chancellor stressed the need for “positivity” about future growth prospects as he referenced Elon Musk's recent visit to the UK. "When Elon Musk was here three weeks ago, he said there were only two centres in the world for AI, San Francisco and London.
“We’ve got a lot going for us, so if we’re going to go into dealing with the sprain, rather than the broken leg, then let’s do so from a perspective of positivity," Mr Hunt said.

Labour election chief Pat McFadden has defended Sir Keir Starmer after he faced a backlash for praising Margaret Thatcher. In a Sunday Telegraph opinion piece, the Labour leader claimed the former Conservative prime minister had effected “meaningful change” and “set loose Britain’s natural entrepreneurialism”. But McFadden says the comments were "not an endorsement of Thatcher's policies" but rather expressing admiration of her standing as a "conviction politician."
