Tories: We need something earlier than Heathrow expansion

The shadow chancellor has argued that Rachel Reeves's plan to expand Heathrow Airport doesn't do enough to tackle economic issues affecting people now, claiming it will only come into effect in the next 10-30 years, if at all. Mel Stride did, however, assert his support for Reeves's planned Heathrow expansion, despite citing Labour divisions about the issue including Mayor of London Sir Sadiq Khan's objections.

Tories: Starmer is no Margaret Thatcher

The shadow financial secretary has dismissed comparisons between Margaret Thatcher and Sir Keir Starmer, who likened his government to the ex-prime minister's. Criticising the Labour government's budget, Gareth Davies claimed Chancellor Rachel Reeves's budget has created an environment "not conducive to economic growth". The Tory MP's comments come as Reeves announced government support for Heathrow expansion in a major speech, in which the chancellor said a third runway could increase potential GDP by 0.43% by 2050 and could create over 100,000 jobs.

Govt minister: We have to accept the trade-offs of growth

Jonathan Reynolds says there is no contradiction between Labour's new plans for growth and the government's green commitments, citing investments in renewable energy and clean technology as "massive opportunities". The business secretary did, however, admit that there are “trade-offs” involved in growth and that the government will have to accept this as part of the process. This comes ahead of Chancellor Rachel Reeves' major speech on growth, in which she is expected to speak about plans of improving water infrastructure, expanding Heathrow, and unlocking big investments for the country.

Breaking: U.S Transgender Athletes Banned From Women’s Sports | U.S House Transphobic Bill?

Trump’s Role in Gaza Truce Sets Off Firestorm Among Arab Americans; Biden Slammed as 'Weak'

Donald Trump’s claimed role in brokering a Gaza ceasefire has intensified Arab American frustration with President Biden.

Arab American voters, particularly in Michigan, express anger over Biden’s handling of the war, branding him “Genocide Joe” and questioning Democratic support for Palestinian rights.
