Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Counter-terrorism police said the five men arrested over a suspected bomb plot at RAF Fairford are all UK nationals aged 23 to 25 and from London. A farmer who found three vans blocking her drive called police and believes she saw between eight and ten men; about 85 households near the base have not been allowed home. The defence secretary thanked her and said she has only a partial picture, President Trump said the men had been under investigation, and Iran rejected any involvement from its London embassy.
The price of a litre of diesel reached the highest level in UK history, and President Trump is expected to announce a ban on US exports of the fuel. Chancellor John Healey gave a speech at the Labour party conference, announcing £100 million for new apprenticeships and £6 billion in contracts for British shipbuilders, addressing the benefits bill and saying his first budget is a month away. The prime minister said one hour of menopause training for medical students is not acceptable after an ITV News investigation, Avanti West Coast services are to be nationalized from March next year, new shoots were seen around the stump of the felled Sycamore Gap tree, and Liam Gallagher said the Oasis 2027 tour had sold out.
A 10-year-old child and two women died after a boat got into difficulty in the Channel, with French authorities saying 105 people on board were rescued after calling for assistance. The home secretary is expected to announce the immediate reopening of the refugee resettlement scheme. Donald Trump asked the Chinese president if he wants to buy US arms, according to the US ambassador to China; at least eight people died in Bangkok flooding; Pope Leo urged Europe to draw on its Christian roots in Metz; and Taylor Swift won video of the year at the MTV VMAs for The Fate of Ophelia, becoming the artist with the most VMAs and dedicating the award to Dolly Parton.
