He told the Commons: “We will take a pragmatic approach.”The UK is “negotiating an economic deal which covers and will include tariffs if we succeed,” he told MPs.

Environmentalists have accused the government of “being nasty” to bats and wrongly suggesting that the animals are holding back economic growth. As part of chancellor Rachel Reeves’s “radical shake-up” of red tape to promote growth, officials said on Monday that guidance on protecting bats will be looked at afresh. “It should not be the case that to convert a garage or outbuilding you need to wade through hundreds of pages of guidance on bats,” the Treasury said in a statement. The charity said the change was a “shock”. • How bats became the housebuilder’s enemy No 1Doug

Source: The Times, as reported by European PravdaDetails: A source from the UK government told The Times that the deployment of UK-led forces would be indefinite. Around a dozen countries, including the UK, France, Türkiye, Canada and Australia, are discussing plans to send up to 30,000 troops to Ukraine. However, it is currently unclear whether the peacekeeping forces will be authorised to open fire on Russian soldiers in the event of aggression. Background:Russia has repeatedly stated that it will not agree to the presence of peacekeeping forces in Ukraine. However, Starmer added that any post-ceasefire plans for Ukraine would need to involve cooperation with the United States.

Lauren Egan: “Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s handling of the government funding fight has caused such damage to his standing in the party that even supporters were privately discussing this week whether it represented the nadir of his lengthy political career.”“It wasn’t because they felt Schumer had erred in shepherding a House Republican-authored bill to passage in the Senate.

The body of aviation experts working with airports will produce “a step change” in airspace modernisation, the department claimed. The UK Airspace Design Service (UKADS) will initially review London’s airspace, which is the busiest in the UK. Much of how the UK’s airspace is used dates back to the 1950s, when there were fewer flights and aircraft navigated using ground-based beacons. EasyJet published the results of an AI-based study that found airspace inefficiencies increased its CO2 emissions in the year to the end of July 2024 by 10.6%. The DfT and the CAA will consult on changes to the process of making airspace changes by September.

The SPaRC (SIFE Pathway Registrants Collective) Conference was more than an event; it was a space for learning, reflection, and shared experiences, bringing together 200 internationally educated nurses from across the UK. More than 15,000 internationally educated nurses gained full registration, transitioning into band 5 and higher roles, reclaiming their professional identity and dignity. Unlike conventional conferences, SPaRC was led by the very nurses who had lived this experience. The UK must continue to recognise the skills of internationally educated nurses, not as an afterthought but as an essential component of a sustainable, diverse, and competent workforce. The power of collective action lived experience, and the courage to challenge outdated systems had led to real change.

British Army officers have been told they must wait until the late 2030s for promotion, amid claims the service is “bloated” by a disproportionate number of senior-ranking soldiers.
