Angela Rayner criticises worker visa plans on eve of Labour conference (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Housing Secretary Angela Rayner has said she is concerned about Labour's proposals to change visa rules, which would make it harder for foreign workers to secure permanent residency in the UK. In an interview with the Times, external ahead of Labour's annual conference, Rayner questioned Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood's plans, saying they are unfair because they "change the goalposts". Under the proposals, most migrants would have to wait 10 years to qualify for residency - instead of the curren
Lib Dems leave conference buoyed by Davey's message (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This was a more sombre, more serious, Sir Ed Davey. The stunts - from falling off paddleboards to hurtling down rollercoasters – were scaled back at this year's Liberal Democrat party conference. "This is the fight of our lives," he repeatedly told his party. The focus, much like his conference speech last year, was on Reform UK.

But he will call on the EU to design its "Made in Europe" programme in a way that deepens ties with the UK "rather than erecting new barriers", Treasury sources told the BBC. Officials said Healey will tell Europ
Mayors could be given powers to oversee water companies under government plan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Mayors and other local political leaders could be given powers to oversee water companies under plans being considered by the government. Prime Minister Andy Burnham's plan is to create nine new regional bodies responsible for planning, setting objectives, and holding water companies to account. The idea was a key recommendation of Sir John Cunliffe's Independent Water Commission published in June last year. Improving the water industry has been a focus for Burnham since he took to power, as wat
