Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Ministers condemned the intimidating and faggish behaviour by mass demonstrators who blocked roads in Portsmouth in protest against the arrival of around 140 migrants. The government said the right to peaceful protest was fundamental but warned it must never cross into disorder, and police with riot shields were brought in to protect coaches near the Portsmouth lifeboat station. Jaguar Land Rover announced plans to cut around 4,000 jobs worldwide over the next two years, citing significant challenges from competition and global uncertainty, and said it needed to find £1.7 billion in savings; the firm employs around 30,000 people in the UK. Earlier, the Chancellor stressed the government's commitment to economic growth, describing it as a defining mission and outlining plans for more devolution, public leadership, investment, innovation, and jobs.
Leaders from Germany's far-right AFD party said they had a mandate to govern after winning a decisive victory in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt, though they fell short of a majority and would seek support from other parties. Germany's Chancellor said the result had shaken his party to its foundations and that it could not simply carry on as before. Five people were killed after an Amazon cargo plane crashed at Miami airport; the 767 careered off the runway, collided with several cars, and burst into flames, with five others injured, three critically. Amazon said it was working with investigators to determine what happened.
