Hillier hails welfare deal after Labour revolt

Labour MP Dame Meg Hillier says a workable compromise has been reached on welfare reforms after ministers offered concessions to avoid defeat.

Sir Keir Starmer faced pressure from 126 Labour MPs who backed an amendment to block the Bill, but the government now expects it to pass its first Commons vote on 1 July.

Hillier says the changes are "critical to protecting the most vulnerable." Report by Covellm.

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron was caught on a kiss cam at a Coldplay concert with Kristin Cabot — the company’s Chief People Officer — and not his wife. The moment, captured on video and quickly spread across TikTok and X, has ignited a wave of online backlash. Social media users were quick to tag Byron’s wife, Megan Kerrigan Byron, who has since made subtle changes to her Facebook profile.
