Is the UK on the verge of a diesel crisis? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The price of diesel has hit £2 per litre – the most expensive it has ever been – at a third of UK petrol stations, said The Sun. This is “uncharted territory”, financial analyst Kathleen Brooks told City A.M. Donald Trump has already sent markets into a “frenzy” by threatening to ban diesel exports from the US, said the same paper. Weakened infrastructure for refining diesel and lower reserves than European counterparts mean the UK could be uniquely “exposed” to any further “ripple effects”, inc
Brexit: is Burnham on the right course? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Andy Burnham has promised to “undertake the most ambitious review of Brexit since Britain left the EU”, said Jon Stone in Politico. And, “for now at least, he’s keeping all his options open”.

The government department did later concede that only “around 1,200 might be relevan

Read excerpt
“Nobody goes into politics, whatever party, to close a school,” said Una O’Halloran, leader of Islington council. “There’s a generation that are not going to be having children, or maybe just having one child, and that’s really sad.
