Holden: Government is not neglecting transport in the North
The transport minister, Richard Holden, insists that the government is not neglecting the North, despite looming questions over the fate of HS2.
The minister blames spiralling construction costs of the new high speed rail line on inflation, sparked, Holden claims, by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The Government admits up to 7,000 buildings with unsafe materials remain unidentified. Under a new plan, all high-rises over 18m with dangerous cladding will be fixed by 2029. Shadow Paymaster General Richard Holden criticised the timeline, calling five years "a very, very long time" and urging faster action, particularly against those involved in illegal practices before Grenfell.

Donald Trump has sharply criticized President Joe Biden for mishandling tensions between Russia, Ukraine, and NATO, accusing the U.S. leader of sparking the ongoing war in Ukraine. Trump argued that Biden's push for Ukraine to join NATO, despite Russia's long standing opposition, was a key trigger for the conflict. He claimed that Washington violated a prior understanding with Russia regarding NATO's expansion limits, setting the stage for what he described as a "disaster" that could have been avoided. Trump further warned that the conflict could escalate and worsen, and expressed regret that preventing the war in 2022 would have been easier than resolving it now. He also reiterated his belief that he could broker a resolution, albeit acknowledging the complexity of the situation.
