The Wrap With Gillian Joseph

MPs voted down the assisted dying bill in the House of Commons by 286 to 270, a significant defeat for campaigners who argued that terminally ill people should have the right to choose how they end their lives. Opponents expressed relief, saying the bill lacked sufficient safeguards and could pressure vulnerable people. The vote was a free conscience vote, with some MPs switching sides, and the outcome means the legislation is at an end for now, though several commentators expected it to return in a future parliament.

Memorials were held around the world to mark the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 people when hijacked planes hit the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania. At Ground Zero, the names of the victims were read out over several hours, with Vice President JD Vance standing alongside four former presidents. President Trump instead spoke at the Pentagon, where he said, "We will never, ever forget." A widow at the ceremony repeated allegations against Saudi Arabia over its role in the attacks.

In a broadcast exclusive interview, Eric Trump blamed European politicians for high energy costs, arguing that they had shut down North Sea drilling and subsidised wind farms while failing to exploit nuclear power. He said it was unfair to blame his father, Donald Trump, for oil prices, and claimed that European households were paying far more for energy than Americans because the US was energy independent. The interview took place as Donald Trump travelled to Ireland for the Irish Open Golf Tournament at his Doonbeg course.
